SINATRA BOOK

IT’S ONLY A PAPER MOON (F)

I never feel a thing is real

When I'm away from you
Out of your embrace
The world's a temporary parking place

Mmm, mm, mm, mm

A bubble for a minute
Mmm, mm, mm, mm
You smile, the bubble has a rainbow in it

Say, its only a paper moon

Sailing over a cardboard sea
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me

Yes, it's only a canvas sky

Hanging over a muslin tree
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me

Without your love

It's a honky-tonk parade
Without your love
It's a melody played in a penny arcade

It's a Barnum and Bailey world

Just as phony as it can be
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me
A FOGGY DAY (F)

A foggy day,
in London town,
it had me low,
and it had me down

I viewed the morning,

with much alarm,
the British Museum,
had lost its charm

How long I wondered,

could this thing last,
but the age of miracles,
it hadn't past

And suddenly,
I saw you standing right there
And in foggy London town,
the sun was shining everywhere
ALL OF ME (C)

All of me - why not take (come on get) all of me

Can't you see - I'm no good (just a mess) without you

Take my lips - I want to lose them

Take (Get a piece of) my (these) arms - I'll never use them

Your good-bye - left me with eyes that cry

How can I - get along (ever make it) without you

(You know) You took (got) the part - that once was (used to
be) my heart
So why not - why not take all of me
AS TIME GOES BY (D)

You must remember this

A kiss is still a kiss
A sigh is still (just) a sigh
The fundamental things apply
As time goes by

And when two lovers woo

They still say: "I love you"
On that you can rely
No matter what the future brings
As time goes by

Moonlight and love songs - never out of date

Hearts full of passion - jealousy and hate
Woman needs man - and man must have his mate
That no one can deny

It's still the same old story

A fight for love and glory
A case of do or die
The world will always welcome lovers
As time goes by
BEST IS YET TO COME

Out of the tree of life, I just picked me a plum

You came along and everything started to hum
Still it's a real good bet, the best is yet to come

The best is yet to come, and babe won't that be fine

You think you've seen the sun, but you ain't seen it shine

Wait till the warm-up is underway

Wait till our lips have met
Wait till you see that sunshine day
You ain't seen nothin' yet

The best is yet to come, and babe won't it be fine

The best is yet to come, come the day that your mine

Come the day that you're mine

I'm gonna teach you to fly
We've only tasted the wine
We're gonna drain that cup dry

Wait till your charms are right, for these arms to surround
You think you've flown before, but baby you ain't left the ground

Wait till you're locked in my embrace

Wait till I draw you near
Wait till you see that sunshine place
Ain't nothin' like it here

The best is yet to come, and babe won't it be fine

The best is yet to come, come the day that you're mine

Come the day you're mine

And you're gonna be mine.
BLACK MAGIC

That old black magic has me in its spell,

That old black magic that you weave so well
Those icy fingers up and down my spine,
The same old witchcraft when your eyes meet mine,
The same old tingle that I feel inside

And then that elevator starts its slide,

Down and down I go,
Round and round I go,
Like a leaf that's caught in the tide.

I should stay away but what can I do,

I hear your name, and I'm aflame,
A flame with such a burning desire,
That only your kiss can put out the fire.

'Cause you're the lover I have waited for,

The mate that fate had me created for,

And every time your lips meet mine,

Darling, down and down I go,
Round and round I go,
In that spin of love that I am in,
Under that old black magic of love.
BLUE MOON (D)

Blue Moon
You saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own

Blue Moon
You knew just what I was there for
You heard me saying a prayer for
Someone I really could care for

And then there suddenly appeared before me

The only one my arms will (ever) hold
I heard somebody whisper please adore me
And when I looked to the Moon it turned to gold

Blue Moon
Now I'm no longer alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own

And then there suddenly appeared before me

The only one my arms will ever hold
I heard somebody whisper please adore me
And when I looked the Moon had turned to gold

Blue moon
Now I'm no longer alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own

Blue moon
Now I'm no longer alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own
CALL ME IRRESPONSIBLE (F)

Call me irresponsible - call me unreliable

Throw in undependable too
Do my foolish alibis bore you
Well I'm not too clever - I just adore you

Call me unpredictable - tell me I'm impractical

Rainbows I'm inclined to pursue
Call me irresponsible - yes I'm unreliable
But it's undeniably true - I'm irresponsibly mad for you
CHEEK TO CHEEK (C)

Heaven, I'm in heaven

And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek

Heaven, I'm in heaven

And the cares that hung around me through the week
Seem to vanish like a gambler's lucky streak
When we're out together dancing (swinging) cheek to cheek

Oh I love to climb a mountain

And reach the highest peak
But it doesn't thrill (boot) me half as much
As dancing cheek to cheek

Oh I love to go out fishing

In a river or a creek
But I don't enjoy it half as much
As dancing cheek to cheek

(Come on and) Dance with me

I want my arm(s) about you
That (Those) charm(s) about you
Will carry me through...

(Right up) To heaven, I'm in heaven

And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we're out together dancing, out together dancing (swinging)
Out together dancing cheek to cheek
COME FLY WITH ME (B)

Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away

If you can use some exotic booze
There's a bar in far Bombay
Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away

Come fly with me, let's float down to Peru

In llama-land there's a one-man band
And he'll toot his flute for you
Come fly with me, let's take off in the blue

Once I get you up there

Where the air is rarefied
We'll just glide
Starry-eyed
Once I get you up there
I'll be holding you so near
You may hear
Angels cheer, 'cause we're together

Weather-wise, it's such a lovely day

Just say the words and we'll beat the birds
Back to Acapulco Bay
It is perfect for a flying honeymoon, they say
Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away

Once I get you up there

Where the air is rarefied
We'll just glide
Starry-eyed
Once I get you up there
I'll be holding you so near
You may hear
Angels cheer, 'cause we're together

Weather-wise, it's such a lovely day

If you say the word, we will beat those birds
Back to Acapulco Bay
It is perfect for a flying honeymoon, they say
Come fly with me, let's fly, let,s fly,
Pack up, let's fly away
CLOSE TO YOU

Close to you - I will always stay

Close to you - though you're far away

You'll always be near - as though you were here

By my side
No matter where - in my dreams, I'll find you there

Close to me - sharing your caress

Can't you see - you're my happiness

Where ever you go - my heart will go too

What can I do
It only wants to be - close to you
COME RAIN OR COME SHINE

I'm gonna love you, like nobody's loved you

Come rain or come shine
High as a mountain, deep as a river
Come rain or come shine

I guess when you met me

It was just one of those things
But don't you ever bet me
'Cause I'm gonna be true if you let me

You're gonna love me, like nobody's loved me

Come rain or come shine
We'll be happy together, unhappy together
Now won't that be just fine

The days may be cloudy or sunny

We're in or we're out of the money
But I'm with you always
I'm with you rain or shine
EVERYBODY LOVES SOMEBODY (G)

Everybody loves somebody sometime

Everybody falls in love somehow
Something in your kiss just told me
(That) My sometime is now

Everybody finds somebody someplace

There's no telling where love may appear
Something in my heart keeps saying
(That) My someplace is here

If I had it in my power
I'd arrange for every girl to have your charm
Then every minute, every hour
Every boy would find what I've found in your arms

Everybody loves somebody sometime

And although my dream was overdue
Your love made it well worth waiting
For someone like you
FLY ME TO THE MOON (C)

Fly me to the moon

Let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like
On Jupiter and Mars

In other words, hold my hand

In other words, baby
kiss me

Fill my heart with song

and let me sing for evermore
you are all I long for
all I worship and adore

In other words, please be true

In other words, I love you

fill my heart with song

let me sing for evermore
you are all I long for
all I worship and adore

In other words, please be true !!!

In other words, in other words
I love...You
FOR ONCE IN MY LIFE (D)

For once in my life I have someone who needs me

Someone I've needed so long
For once unafraid I can go where life leads me
And somehow I know I'll be strong

For once I can touch what my heart used to dream of

Long before I knew
Someone warm like you
Would make my dreams come true

For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me

Not like it's hurt me before
For once I have something I know won't desert me
And I'm not alone anymore

For once I can say: "This is mine you won't take it"
Long as I know I have love I can make it
For once in my life I've got someone who needs me

For once I can say: "This is mine you can't take it"
Long as I know I have love I can make it
For once in my life I've got someone
For once in my life I've found someone
For once in my life I've got someone who needs me
GIRL FROM IPANEMA (A)

(Sinatra:)
Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes, each one she passes goes - ah

When she walks, she's like a samba

That swings so cool and sways so gentle
That when she passes, each one she passes goes - ooh

(Ooh) But I watch her so sadly

How can I tell her I love her
Yes I would give my heart gladly
But each day, when she walks to the sea
She looks straight ahead, not at me

Tall, (and) tan, (and) young, (and) lovely

The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes, I smile - but she doesn't see (doesn't see)

(Tom Jobim:)

Olha que coisa mais linda mais cheia de graça

É ela menina que vem e que passa
Num doce balanço a caminho do mar...

Moça do corpo dourado do sol de Ipanema

O seu balançado parece um poema
É a coisa mais linda que eu já vi passar...

(Sinatra:)
Ooh) But I watch her so sadly
(Tom Jobim:)
(Ahh) porque tudo é tã o triste
(Sinatra:)
Yes I would give my heart gladly
But each day, when she walks to the sea
She looks straight ahead, not at me

Tall, and tan, and young, and lovely

The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes, I smile - but she doesn't see

(Tom Jobim:)
Por causa do Amor
(Sinatra:)
She just doesn't see
(Tom Jobim:)
Nem olha para mim
(Sinatra:)
She never sees me
(Tom Jobim:)
Por causa do Amor...
HAVE YOU MET MISS JONES

"Have you met Miss Jones?" someone said as we shook hands,

She was just Miss Jones to me.

And then I said, "Miss Jones, you're a girl who understands

I'm a man who must be free."

And all at once I lost my breath, and all at once was scared to death,
And all at once I owned the earth and sky.

And now I've met Miss Jones, and we'll keep on meeting till we die,
Miss Jones and I.

(musical interlude)

And all at once I lost my breath, and all at once was scared to death,
And all at once I owned the earth and the sky.

Now I've met Miss Jones, and we'll keep on meeting till we die,
Miss Jones and I, Miss Jones and I, Miss Jones and I
HELLO DOLLY

Hello Dolly, well hello Dolly,

It's so nice to have you back where you belong.
You're looking swell, Dolly, we can tell, Dolly,
You're still glowing, you're still crowing, you're still going strong.

We feel the room swaying 'cause the band's playing

One of your old favorite songs from way back when,
Take a rap, fellows, find her an empty lap, fellows,
Dolly'll never go away, Dolly'll never go away...Again

(instrumental by Louie Armstrong playing his saxophone)

Hello Sax(Satch not Sax), this is Francis, Louie,

It's so nice to see you back where you belong,
You're back on top, Louie, never stop, Louie,
You're still singing, you're still swinging, you're still going strong,
You get the room swaying when you start in playing
One of your great songs, your songs from way back when,
Blow your horn, Louie, sing up a great big storm, Louie,
Promise you won't go away, promise you won't go away,
Promise you won't go away again.
I’LL BE SEING YOU

I'll be seeing you;

In all the old, familiar places;
That this heart of mine embraces;
All day through.

In that small cafe;

The park across the way;
The children's carousel;
The chestnut tree;
The wishing well.

I'll be seeing you;

In every lovely, summer's day;
And everything that's bright and gay;
I'll always think of you that way;
I'll find you in the morning sun;
And when the night is new;
I'll be looking at the moon;
But I'll be seeing you
I’VE GOT THE WORLD ON A STRING (D)

I've got the world on a string

I'm sitting on a rainbow
Got the string around my finger
What a world, what a life - I'm in love

I've got a song that I sing

I can make the rain go
Any time I move my finger
Lucky me, can't you see - I'm in love

Life is a beautiful thing

As long as I hold the string
I'd be a silly so-and-so
If I should ever let it go

I've got the world on a string

I'm sitting on a rainbow
Got the string around my finger
What a world, what a life - I'm in love

Life is a beautiful thing

As long as I hold the string
I'd be a silly so-and-so
If I should ever let it go

I've got the world on a string

I'm sitting on a rainbow
Got the string around my finger
What a world,
Man, this is the life
Hey now, I'm so in love
I’VE GOT YOU UNDER MY SKIN (E)

I've got you under my skin

I've got you deep in the heart of me
So deep in my heart, that you're really a part of me
I've got you under my skin.

I tried so not to give in I said to myself this affair never will go so well
but why should I try to resist, when baby I know so well
I've got you under my skin.

I'd sacrifice anything come what might

For the sake of having you near
In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats, repeats in my ear

Don't you know little fool, you never can win

Use your mentality, wake up to reality,
But each time that I do, just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin,
Because I've got you under my skin

I would sacrifice anything come what might

for the sake of having you near
in spite of a warning voice
That comes in the night and repeats,
how it yells in my ear

Don't you know little fool, you never can win

Why not use your mentality,step up wake up to reality
and each time I do, just the thought of you
Makes me stop just before I begin
'Cause I've got you under my skin
yes I've got You under my skin..
I GET A KICK OUT OF YOU

Verse:

My story is much to sad to be told

But practically everything leaves me totally cold
The only exception I know is the case
When I'm out on a quiet spree, fighting vainly the old ennui
Then I suddenly turn and see
Your fabulous face

Chorus:

I get no kick from champagne

Mere alcohol doesn't thrill me at all
So tell me why should it be true
That I get a kick out of you

Some, they may go for Cocaine

I'm sure that if I took even one sniff
It would bore me terrifically too
But I get a kick out of you

( Some like the bop-type refrain )

( I'm sure that if, I heard even one riff )
( It would bore me terrifically too )
( But I get a kick out of you )

( Some they may go for cocaine )

( I'm sure that if, I took even one sniff )
( It would bore me terrifically too )
( But I get a kick out of you )

I get a kick every time I see you standing there before me

I get a kick though it's clear to see, you obviously do not adore me

I get no kick in a plane

Flying too high with some gal in the sky
Is my idea of nothing to do
But I get a kick out of you
I LEFT MY HEART IN SAN FRANCISCO (B)

The loveliness of Paris seems somehow sadly gay,

The glory that was Rome is just another day,
I've been terribly alone and forgotten in Manhattan,
I'm going home to my city by the bay.

I left my heart in San Francisco,

high on a hill it calls to me
To be where little cable cars
climb halfway to the stars.
The morning fog may chill the air, I don't care.

My love waits there in San Francisco,

above the blue and windy sea,
When I come home to you, San Francisco,
your golden sun will shine for me.
I ONLY HAVE EYES FOR YOU

Are the stars out tonight?

I don't know if it's cloudy or bright
'Cause I only have eyes for you, dear
The moon may be high
But I can't see a thing in the sky
'Cause I only have eyes for you.

I don't know if we're in a garden

Or on a crowded avenue
You are here, so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
And I only have eyes for you

I don't know if we're in a garden

Or on a crowded avenue
You are here, so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
(they all disappear from view)
And I only have eyes
For You
I WANNA BE AROUND

I wanna be around to pick up the pieces when somebody

breaks your heart,
Somebody twice as smart as I.
Somebody who will swear to be true like you used to do with
me,
Who'll leave you to learn that misery loves company, wait
and see.

I wanna be around to see how he does it when he breaks

your heart to bits,
Let's see if the puzzle fits, so fine,
And that's when I'll discover that revenge is sweet,
As I sit there applauding from a front row seat,
When somebody breaks your heart like you broke mine.

That's when I'll discover that revenge is sweet,

As I sit there applauding from a front row seat,
When somebody breaks your heart like you broke mine,
Like you, like you broke mine.
I WONT DANCE

I won't dance, don't ask me

I won't dance, don't ask me
I won't dance, Madame, with you
My heart won't let my feet do things that they should do

You know what?, you're lovely

You know what?, you're so lovely
And, oh, what you do to me
I'm like an ocean wave that's bumped on the shore
I feel so absolutely stumped on the floor

When you dance, you're charming and you're gentle

'specially when you do the Continental
But this feeling isn't purely mental
For, heaven rest us, I am not asbestos

And that's why

I won't dance, why should I?
I won't dance, how could I?
I won't dance, merci beaucoup
I know that music leads the way to romance,
So if I hold you in my arms I won't dance
I won't dance, don't ask me,
I won't dance, don't ask me
I won't dance, Madame, with you
My heart won't let me feet do things that they want to do

You know what?, you're lovely,

Ring-a-ding-ding, you're lovely
And, oh, what you do to me
I'm like an ocean wave that's bumped on the shore
I feel so absolutely stumped on the floor

When you dance, you're charming and you're gentle

'specially when you do the Continental
But this feeling isn't purely mental
For, heaven rest us, I am not asbestos

and that's why

I won't dance, I won't dance
I won't dance, merci beaucoup
I know that music leads the way to romance
So if I hold you in my arms I won't dance!!
IF

If a picture paints a thousands words

Then why can't I paint you?
The words would never show
The you I've come to know

If a ship is launched a thousands times

Then where am I to go?
There's no one here but you
You're all that's left me too

And when - my love - for life - is running dry

You come - and pour - yourself - on me

If a man could be two places at one time

I'd be with you
Tomorrow and today
Beside you all the way

If the world should stop revolving

Slowly spinning down to die
I'd spend the end with you
And when the world was through

Then one - by one - the stars - would all go out

And you - and I - would simply fly away
IT HAD TO BE YOU (A)

Why do I do, just as you say

Why must I just, give you your way
Why do I sigh, why don't I try - to forget

It must have been, that something lovers call fate

Kept me saying: "I have to wait"
I saw them all, just couldn't fall - 'til we met

It had to be you, it had to be you

I wandered around, and finally found - the somebody who
Could make me be true, and could make me be blue
And even be glad, just to be sad - thinking of you

Some others I've seen, might never be mean

Might never be cross, or try to be boss
But they wouldn't do
For nobody else, gave me a thrill - with all your faults, I love you still
It had to be you, wonderful you
It had to be you
JUST IN TIME

I was resting comfortably, face down in the gutter

Life was serene, I knew where I was at
"There's no hope for him," my dearest friends would mutter
I was something dragged in by the cat. Then ...

Just in time
I found you just in time
Before you came my time
Was running low
I was lost
The losing dice were tossed
My bridges all were crossed
Nowhere to go

Now you're here

And now I know just where I'm going
No more doubt or fear
'Cause I found my way
For love came just in time
You found me just in time
And saved my lonely life
That lovely day
THE WAY YOU LOOK TONIGHT (EB)

Some days, when i'm awfully low

When the world is cold
I will feel a glow, just thinking of you
And the way you look, Tonight

Yes your lovely, with your smile so warm

And your cheek so soft
There is nothing for me but to love you
And the way you look tonight

With each word you tenderness grows

Tearing my fear apart
And that laugh, wrinkles your nose
Touches my foolish heart

Lovely, never never change

Keep, that breathless charm
Wont you please arrange it
Cause I love you
A just the way you look tonight
LET’S FALL IN LOVE

We might have been meant for each other

To be or not to be, let our hearts discover

I have a feeling, it's a feeling I'm concealing - I don't know why

It's just a mental, incidental, sentimental - alibi
But I adore you, so strong for you
Why go on stalling, I am falling, love is calling - why be shy

Let's fall in love

Why shouldn't we fall in love
Our hearts are made of it, let's take a chance
Why be afraid of it

Let's close our eyes

And make our own paradise
Little we know of it, still we can try
To make a go of it

We might have been meant for each other

To be or not to be, let our hearts discover

Let's fall in love

Why shouldn't we fall in love
Now is the time for it, while we are young
Let's fall in love
LOVE AND MARRIAGE

Love and marriage, love and marriage

Go together like a horse and carriage
This I tell you brother
You can't have one without the other

Love and marriage, love and marriage

It's an institute you can't disparage
Ask the local gentry
And they will say it's elementary

Try, try, try to separate them

It's an illusion
Try, try, try, and you will only come
To this conclusion

Love and marriage, love and marriage

Go together like the horse and carriage
Dad was told by mother
You can't have one, you can't have none, you can't have one without
the other!

No Sir!
LOVE ME TENDER

Love me tender, love me sweet, never let me go,

You have made my life complete and I love you so.
Love me tender, love me true, all my dreams fulfilled,
For my darling, I love you and I always will.

Love me tender, love me long, take me to your heart.

For it's there that I belong and we'll never part.
Love me tender, love me sweet, all my dreams fulfilled,
For my darling, I love you and I always will.

Love me tender, love me dear, tell me you are mine,

I'll be yours through all the years till the end of time.
Love me tender, love me sweet, all my dreams fulfilled,
For my darling, I love you and I always will.
MACK THE KNIVE

Oh, the shark has pretty teeth dear

And he shows 'em, pearly white
Just a jack knife has Macheath dear
And he keeps it way out of sight

When that shark bites with his teeth, dear

Scarlet billows they begin to spread
Fancy white gloves has Macheath dear
So there's never, never a trace of red

On the sidewalk, one Sunday morning

Lies a body, oozin' life
Someone's sneaking 'round the corner
Could that someone perhaps, per chance be Mack the Knife

From a tugboat, on the river going slow

A cement bag is dropping down
You know that cement is for the weight dear
You can make a large bet Macheath's in town

My man Louis Miller, he split the scene babe

After drawing out all the bread from his stash
Now Macheath spends like a sailor
Do you suppose this guy, he did something rash

Old Satchmo, Louis Armstrong, Bobby Darrin

They did this song nice, Lady Ella too
They all sang it, with so much feeling
That Old Blue Eyes, he ain't gonna add nothing new

But with this big, fat band, jumping behind me

Swinging hard, Jack, I know I can't lose
When I tell you, all about Mack the Knife babe
It's an offer, you can never refuse

We got Patrick Williams, Bill Miller playing that piano

And this wonderful, great big band, bringing up the rear
All these bad cats, in this band now
They make the greatest sounds, you're ever gonna hear

Oh Sookie Taudry, Jenny Diver, Polly Peachum, Old Miss Lulu

Brown

Hey the line forms, on the right dear

Now that Macheath,that bum is back in town
You'd better lock your doors, and call the law
Because Mackie's back in town
MISTY

Look at me, I'm as helpless as a kitten

Up a tree, And I feel like I'm
Clinging from a cloud
I can't understand
I get misty
Just holding your hand’

Walk my way
And a thousand violins begin to play
Or it might be the sound of your hello
That music I hear
I get misty
The moment you're near

You can say that you're leading me on

But it's just what I want you to do
Don't you notice how hopelessly I'm lost
That's why I'm following you

On my own
Would I wander through this wonderland alone
Never knowing my right foot from my left
My hat from my glove
I'm too misty
And too much in love
MY BABY JUST CARES FOR ME

My baby don't care for shows,

my baby don't care for clothes,
My baby just cares for me.
My baby don't care for furs and laces,
My baby don't care for high toned places.
My baby don't care for rings,
or other expensive things.
She's sensible as can be.
My baby don't care who knows it,
my baby just cares for me.
MY FUNNY VALENTINE

My funny Valentine
Sweet comic Valentine
You make me smile with my heart
Your looks are laughable
Unphotographable
Yet you're my favourite work of art

Is your figure less than Greek

Is your mouth a little weak
When you open it to speak
Are you smart?

But don't change a hair for me

Not if you care for me
Stay little Valentine stay
Each day is Valentine's day

Is your figure less than Greek

Is your mouth a little weak
When you open it to speak
Are you smart?

But don't you change one hair for me

Not if you care for me
Stay little Valentine stay
Each day is Valentine's day

NEARNESS OF YOU

It's not the pale moon that excites me

That thrills and delights me, oh no
It's just the nearness of you

It isn't your sweet conversation

That brings this sensation, oh no
It's just the nearness of you

When you're in my arms and I feel you so close to me

All my wildest dreams come true

I need no soft lights to enchant me

If you'll only grant me the right
To hold you ever so tight
And to feel in the night the nearness of you
NEW YORK NEW YORK

Start spreading the news, I'm leaving today

I want to be a part of it - New York, New York
These vagabond shoes, are are longing to stray
Right through the very heart of it - New York, New York

I wanna wake up in a city that doesn't sleep

And find I'm king of the hill - top of the heap

These little town blues, are melting away

I'll make a brand new start of it - in old New York
If i can make it there, I'll make it anywhere
It's up to you - New York, New York

New York, New York

I want to wake up in a city that never sleeps
And find I'm a number one, top of the list
King of the hill, a number one

These little town blues, are melting away

And I'm gonna make a brand new start of it - in old New York
And if i can make it there, I'm gonna make it anywhere

It's up to you - New York New York

New York
NIGHT AND DAY

Night and day, you are the one

Only you beneath the moon or under the sun
Whether near to me, or far
It's no matter darling where you are
I think of you day and night

Night and day, why is it so

That this longing for you follows wherever I go
In the roaring traffic's boom
In the silence of my lonely room
I think of you day and night

Night and day,under the hide of me

There's an oh such a hungry yearning burning inside of me
And this torment won't be through
Until you let me spend my life making love to you
Day and night, night and day
ONE NOTE SAMBA

This is just a little samba

Built upon a single note
Other notes are bound to follow
But the root is still that note

Now this new note is the consequence of the one we've just been
through
As I'm bound to be the unavoidable consequence of you

There's so many people who can talk and talk and talk
and just say nothing or nearly nothing
I have used up all the scale I know and at the end I've come
to nothing or nearly nothing

So I come back to my first note as I must come back to you

I will pour into that one note all the love I feel for you
Any one who wants the whole show dó -ré-mi-fá -sol-lá -si-dó
He will find himself with no show better play the note you know
OVER THE RAINBOW

When all the world is a hopeless jumble

And the raindrops tumble all around
Heaven opens a magic lane

When all the clouds darken up the skyway

There's a rainbow highway to be found
Leading from your windowpane

To a place behind the sun

Just a step beyond the rain

Somewhere, over the rainbow

Way up high
There's a land that I dreamed of
Once in a lullabye

Somewhere, over the rainbow

Skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true

Some day I'll wish upon a star and wake up where the clouds are
far
behind me
Where laughter falls like lemon drops away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me

Somewhere, over the rainbow

Skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true

If happy little bluebirds fly

Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh, why can't I?
SOUTH OF THE BORDER

South of the border - down Mexico way

That's where I fell in love, where the stars above - came out to play
And now as I wander - my thoughts ever stray
South of the border - down Mexico way

She was a picture - in old Spanish lace

Just for a tender while, I kissed a smile - upon her face
'Cause it was fiesta - and we were so gay
South of the border - Mexico way

Then she smiled as she whispered "manjanna"

Never dreaming that we were parting
Then I lied as a whispered "manjanna"
'Cause our tomorrow never came

South of the border - I jumped back one day

There in a veil of white, by the candle light - she knelt to pray
The mission bells told me (ding-dong) - that I musn't stay
South of the border - Mexico way
SUNNY SIDE OF THE STREET

Grab your coat and snatch your hat, leave your worries on the doorstep.
Just direct your feet to the sunny side of the street.
Can't you hear that pitter pat and that happy tune in your step.
Life can be so sweet on the sunny side of the street.

I used to walk in the shade with the blues on parade.

BUT I'M NOT afraid the rover, crossed over.

If I never had a cent I'll be rich as Rockfeller.

The gold dust at my feet on the sunny side of the street.

I used to walk in the shade with those blues on parade.

But I'm not afraid 'cause the rover, he got over.

If I never had a cent I'd be rich as Rockfeller.

All those chicks 'round my feet,
On the sunny side of the street.
SUMMERWIND

The summer wind, came blowin' in - from across the sea

It lingered there, to touch your hair- and walk with me
All summer long, we sang a song - and then we strolled that golden
sand
Two sweethearts, and the summer wind

Like painted kites, those days and nights - they went flyin' by
The world was new, beneath a blue - umbrella sky
Then softer than, a piper man - one day it called to you
And I lost you, i lost you to the summer wind

The autumn wind, and the winter winds - they have come and gone
And still the days, those lonely days - they go on and on
And guess who sighs his lullabies - through nights that never end
My fickle friend, the summer wind

the summer wind

warm summer wind
mmm the summer wind
SWINGIN ON A STAR

Would you like to swing on a star

Carry moonbeams home in a jar
And be better off than you are
Or would you rather be a mule

A mule is an animal with long funny ears

He kicks up at anything he hears
His back is brawny - and his brain is weak
He's just plain stupid with a - stubborn streak

And by the way, if you hate to go to school

You may grow up to be a mule

Would you like to swing on a star

Carry moonbeams home in a jar
And be better off than you are
Or would you rather be a pig
A pig is an animal with dirt on his face
His shoes are a terrible disgrace
He ain't got no manners when he eats his food
He's fat and lazy - and extremely rude

But if you don't care a feather or a fig

You may grow up to be a pig

Would you like to swing on a star

Carry moonbeams home in a jar
And be better off than you are
Or would you rather be a fish

A fish won't do anything but swim in a brook

He cant write his name or read a book
And to fool the people is his only thought
Though he slippery - he still gets caught
But then if that sort of life is what you wish
You may grow up to be a fish

And all the monkeys aren't in a zoo

Every day you meet quite a few
So you see it's all up to you
You can be better than you are
You could be swinging on a star
THE VERY THOUGHT OF YOU

The very thought of you and I forget to do

The little ordinary things that everyone ought to do.
I'm living in a kind of daydream, I'm happy as a king,
Foolish though it may seem, to me that's everything.
The mere idea of you, the longing here for you,
You'll never know how slow the moments go till I'm near to you.
I see your face in every flower, your eyes in stars above,
It's just the thought of you, the very thought of you, my love.
WITCHCRAFT

Those fingers in my hair

That sly come hither stare
That strips my conscience bare
It's witchcraft

And I've got no defense for it

The heat is too intense for it
What good would common sense for it do

'Cause it's witchcraft, wicked witchcraft

And although, I know, it's strictly taboo

When you arouse the need in me

My heart says yes indeed in me
Proceed with what your leading me to

It's such an ancient pitch

But one I wouldn't switch
'Cause there's no nicer witch than you
STRANGERS IN THE NIGHT

Strangers in the night exchanging glances

Wondering in the night
What were the chances we'd be sharing love
Before the night was through

Something in your eyes was so inviting

Something in your smile was so exciting
Something in my heart told me I must have you

Strangers in the night, two lonely people

We were strangers in the night
Up to the moment when we said our first hello
[. From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/f/frank-sinatra-lyrics/strangers-in-the-
night-lyrics.html .]

Little did we know

Love was just a glance away
A warm embracing dance away

And ever since that night we've been together

Lovers at first sight, in love forever
It turned out so right for strangers in the night

Love was just a glance away

A warm embracing dance away

Ever since that night we've been together

Lovers at first sight, in love forever
It turned out so right for strangers in the night
