This can't be love, because I feel so well,
No sobs, no sorrows, no sighs.
This can't be love; I get no dizzy spells,
My head is not in the skies.

My heart does not stand still, just hear it beat.
This is too sweet to be love.

This can't be love, because I feel so well,
But still I love to look in your eyes.

(Instrumental interlude)

My heart does not stand still, just hear it beat.
This is too sweet to be love.

This can't be love, because I feel so well,
But still I love to look in your eyes.
Still I love to look in your eyes.

(h. woods, g. kahn)
It's just a little streetWhere old friends meet,I'd love to wander backSomeday.
To you, it may be old,And sort of tumbled down,But it means a lot to folksIn my hometown.
Although I'm rich or poor,I still feel sureI'm welcome as the flowers in may.

It's just a little streetWhere old friends meet,And treat you in the same old way.
~interlude~
Although I'm rich or poor,I still feel sureI'm welcome as the flowers in may.
It's just a little streetWhere old friends meet,And treat you in the same old way.

(French Lyrics by Jacques Prévert,
English Lyrics by Johnny Mercer,
Music by Joseph Kosma)

The falling leaves drift by the window
The autumn leaves of red and gold
I see your lips, the summer kisses
The sun-burned hands I used to hold

Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall

C'est une chanson, qui nous ressemble
Toi tu m'aimais et je t'aimais
Nous vivions tous, les deux ensemble
Toi que m'aimais moi qui t'aimais
Mais la vie sépare ceux qui s'aiment
Tout doucement sans faire de bruit
Et la mer efface sur le sable les pas des amants désunis

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

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

There goes my heart, there goes the one I love
There goes the girl I wasn't worthy of
There goes my happiness, it couldn't be
There goes somebody else in place of me

Goodbye romance, it couldn't last somehow
I had my chance but it's all over now
I never thought that she could pass me by
There goes my heart and here am I



I never thought that she could pass me by
There goes my heart and here am I

(m. carr)

Dinner for one please, james,
The madame will not be dining.
Yes, you may bring the wine in,
Love plays such funny games.

Dinner for one please, james,
Close madame's room, we've parted.
Please, don't look so downhearted,
Love plays such funny games.

Seems my best friend told her of another,
I had no chance to deny.


You know there has never been another,
Someday she'll find out the lie.

Maybe she's not to blame,
Leave me with silent hours.
No, don't move her favorite flowers,
Dinner for one please, james.

~interlude~

Maybe she's not to blame,
Leave me with silent hours.
No, don't move her favorite flowers,
Dinner for one please, james.

What a day this has been
What a rare mood I'm in
Why, it's almost like being in love

There's a smile on my face
For the whole human race
Why, it's almost like being in love

All the music of life seems to be
Like a bell that is ringing for me
And from the way that I feel
When that bell starts to peal
I would swear I was falling
I could swear I was falling
It's almost like being in love

TENDERLY

The evening breeze caressed the
trees tenderly
The trembling trees embraced the
breeze tenderly
Then you and I came wandering by
And lost in a sigh were we
The shore was kissed by sea and
mist tenderly
I can't forget how two hearts met
breathlessly
Your arms opened wide and closed
me inside
You took my lips, you took my love
so tenderly

(Nacio H. Brown, Gus Kahn)


You
Stepped out of a dream,
You are too wonderful
To be what you seem.


Could there be eyes like yours?
Could there be lips like yours?
Could there be smiles like yours,
Honest and truly?


You
Stepped out of a cloud,
I want to take you away
Away from the crowd,
And have you all to myself,
Alone and apart.
Out of a dream
Safe into my heart.


~interlude~


You
Stepped out of a cloud,
I want to take you away
Away from the crowd,
And have you all to myself,
Alone and apart.
Out of a dream,
Safe into my heart...
Wa-dee-la-la
Out of a dream!

(Harry Warren, Mack Gordon)


This is our last dance together,
Tonight soon will be long ago.
And in our moment of parting,
This is all I want you to know...


There will be many other nights like this,
And I'll be standing here with someone new.
There will be other songs to sing,
Another fall...another spring...
But there will never be another you.


There will be other lips that I may kiss,
But they won't thrill me,
Like yours used to do.
Yes, I may dream a million dreams,
But how can they come true,
If there will never, ever be another you?


~interlude~


Yes, I may dream a million dreams,
But how can they come true,
If there will never, ever be...
Another you?

(s. gallop, u. minucci)

A thousand thoughts of you
Will haunt me ever after
The music of your laughter
Will serenade my heart.

A thousand thoughts of you
Will roam the night and find me
With chains of love, they'll bind me
To dreams that won't depart.

Your face,
Your smile,
The moonlight in your hair


Your lips,
Your eyes,
I'll see them everywhere.

A thousand kisses, too
Will keep me reminiscing
For there'll be no dismissing
A thousand thoughts of you.

~interlude~

A thousand kisses, too
Will keep me reminiscing
For there'll be no dismissing
A thousand thoughts of you.
