That's all
04:50
|
|||
I can only give you love that lasts forever,
And a promise to be near each time you call.
And the only heart I own
For you and you alone
That's all,
That's all.
I can only give you country walks in springtime
And a hand to hold when leaves begin to fall;
And a love whose burning light
Will warm the winter's night
That's all,
That's all.
There are those I am sure who have told you,
They would give you the world for a toy.
All I have are these arms to enfold you,
And a love even time can't destroy.
If you're wondering what I'm asking in return, dear,
You'll be glad to know that my demands are small.
Say it's me that you'll adore,
For now and evermore
That's all,
That's all.

Verse:
I dreaded every morning
until without a warning
you arrived bringing heaven to my door
And you changed all my blue notes to a love song
It's the dawning that I've waited for
Refrain:
What a difference a day made
Twenty-four little hours
Brought the sun and the flowers
Where there used to be rain
My yesterday was blue, dear
Today I'm a part of you, dear
My lonely nights are through, dear
Since you said you were mi
What a difference a day makes
There's a rainbow before me
Skies above can't be stormy
Since that moment of bliss
That thrilling kiss
It's heaven when you
Find romance on your menu
What a difference a day made
And the difference is you

Bye, bye Blackbird
04:16
|
|||
Pack up all my cares and woe
here I go, singing low
Bye-bye Blackbird
Where somebody waits for me,
sugar's sweet, so is he
Bye-bye Blackbird
No one here can love and understand me
Oh, what hard-luck stories they all hand me
Make my bed and light the light
I'll arrive late tonight
Blackbird, Bye-bye

I'm thru with love
05:51
|
|||
I'm through with love
I'll never fall again
Said adieu to love
Don't ever call again
For I must have you or no one
And so I'm through with love
I've locked my heart
I'll keep my feelings there
I've stocked my heart
With icy, frigid air
And I mean to care for no one
Because I'm through with love
Why did you lead me to think you could care?
You didn't need me, you had your share
Of slaves around you to hound you and swear
With deep emotion, devotion to you
Goodbye to spring and all it meant to me
It can never bring the thing that used to be
For I must have you or no one
And so I'm through with love

Sometimes I'm happy
05:11
|
|||
Sometimes I'm happy
Sometimes I'm blue
My disposition
Depends on you
I never mind
The rain from the skies
If I can find
The sun in your eyes
Sometimes I love you
Sometimes I hate you
But when I hate you
It's 'cause I love you
That's how I am
So what can I do
I'm happy when I'm with you

Sweet Lorraine
04:22
|
|||
He's just found joy
He's as happy as a baby boy
With another brand new Choo-Choo toy
When he's with his sweet Lorraine
A pair of eyes
That are bluer than the summer skies
When you see them, you'll realise
Why he love's his sweet Lorraine
When it's raining
He don't miss the sun
For it's in his sweeties smile
Just to think that he's the lucky one
Who will lead her down the aisle
Each night he prays
That nobody steals her heart away
Just can't wait until that happy day
When he marries sweet Lorraine

Day in, day out
03:57
|
|||
Day in-day out
The same old voodoo follows me about
The same old pounding in my heart
Whenever I think of you and darling, I think of you
Day in and day out
Day out-day in
I needn't tell you how my days begin
When I awake I awaken with a tingle
One possibility in view
That possibility of maybe seeing you
Come rain-come shine
I meet you and to me the day is fine
Then I kiss your lips and the pounding becomes
The oceans roar, a thousand drums
Can't you see it's love? Can there be any doubt
When there it is, day in-day out?

When Sunny gets blue
06:31
|
|||
When Sunny gets blue
His eyes get gray and cloudy
Then the rain begins to fall
Pitter patter, pitter patter
Love is gone so what can matter
No sweet lover man comes to call
When Sunny gets blue
He breathes a sigh of sadness
Like the wind that stirs the trees
Wind that sets the leaves to swayin'
Like some violins are playin'
Weird and haunting melodies
People used to love to
Hear him laugh, see him smile
That's how he got his name
Since that sad affair
He's lost his smile
And changed his style
Somehow he's not the same
The memories still fade
And pretty dreams will rise up
Where his other dreams fell through
Hurry, new love, hurry here
To kiss away each lonely tear
And hold him near when Sunny gets blue

Never will I marry
04:08

Verse:
Any flimsy dimsy looking for true love?
Better smile me no good dearie good day
Any flimsy dimsy looking for true love?
Better catch him looking some other way
For my kiss can be no evermore promised
But a fancy dancy fiddle and free
Any flimsy dimsy looking for true love?
Better waste no time, no time on me
Refrain:
Never, never will I marry
Never, never will I wed
Born to wander solitary
Wide my world, narrow my bed
Never never never will I marry
Born to wander 'til I'm dead
No burden to bear
No conscience, no care
No memories to mourn
No turning, for I was
Born to wander solitary
Wide my world, narrow my bed
Never never never will I marry
Born to wander 'til I'm dead

Verse:
He's a fool and don't I know it
But a fool can have his charms
I'm in love and don't I show it
Like a babe in arms
Love's the same old sad sensation
Lately I've not slept a wink
Since this half-pint imitation
Put me on the blink
Refrain:
I'm wild again
Beguiled again
A simpering whimpering child again
Bewitched bothered and bewildered am I
Couldn't sleep and wouldn't sleep
When love came and told me I shouldn't sleep
Bewitched bothered and bewildered am I
Lost my heart but what of it
He is cold I agree
He can laugh but I love it
Although the laugh's on me
I'll sing to him each spring to him
And long for the day when I'll cling to him
Bewitched bothered and bewildered am I

Little white lies
04:26
|

Verse:
'Twas just a night like this, filled with bliss
you led my heart astray
'Twas just a real sweet chance
to learn romance, in a perfect way,
It was the end of a perfect day, Say:
Refrain:
The moon was all aglow and heaven was in your eyes,
The night that you told me those little white lies
The stars all seemed to know
That you didn't mean all those sighs
The night that you told me, those little white lies.
I try but there's no forgetting when evening appears
I sigh, but there's no regretting in spite of my tears
The Devil was in your heart, but heaven was in your eyes
The night that you told me
Those little white lies
