La ville s'embouteille
Et moi j'prends d'la bouteille
En attendant ton appel
Ooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo
Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
And the dreams that you dreamed of
Once in a lullaby
Oh somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dreamed of
Dreams really do come true
Someday I'll wish upon a star
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me
Oh somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dare to
Oh why, oh why can't I?
Oh someday I'll wish upon a star
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me
Oh somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
And the dreams that you dare to
Why, oh why can't I, I?
Ooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo
When I fall in love it will be forever
Or I’ll never fall in love
In a restless world like this is
Love is ended before its begun
And too many moonlight kisses
Seem to cool in the warmth of the sun
When I give my heart it will be completely
Or I’ll never give my heart
And the moment I can feel that you feel that way too
That’s when I fall in love with you
And the moment I can feel that you feel that way too
What'll I do when you
Are far away
And I'm so blue,
What'll I do?
What'll I do when I
Am wond'ring who
Is kissing you,
What'll I do?
What'll I do with just
A photograph
To tell my troubles to?
When I'm alone
With only dreams of you
That won't come true,
What'll I do?
When I'm alone
With only dreams of you
That won't come true,
I'm travilin light
Because my girl has gone
So from now on
I'm travilin' light
she said "Goodbye"
And took my heart away
So from today
I'm travilin' light
No one to see
I'm free as the breeze
No one but me
And my memories
Some lucky night
She may come back again
so until then
I'm travilin' light
No one to see
I'm free as the breeze
No one but me
and my memories
Some lucky night
Je may come back again
So until then
Time after time
I tell myself that I'm so lucky
To be loving you
So lucky to be
The one you run to see
In the evening
When the day is through
I only know what I know
The passing years will show
You kept my love so young
So new
And time after time
You'll hear me say that I'm
So lucky to be loving you
I only know what I know
The passing years will show
You kept my love so young
So new
And time after time
You'll hear me say that i'm
So lucky to be loving you
They all laughed at Christopher Columbus
When he said the world was round
They all laughed when Edison recorded sound
They all laughed at Wilbur and his brother
When they said that man could fly
They told Marconi
Wireless was a phony
It's the same old cry
They laughed at me wanting you
Said I was reaching for the moon
But oh, you came through
Now they'll have to change their tune
They all said we never could be happy
They laughed at us and how!
But ho, ho, ho!
Who's got the last laugh now?
They all said we never could be happy
They laughed at us and how!
For ho, ho, ho!
Who's got the last laugh?
Hee, hee, hee!
Let's at the past laugh
Ha, ha, ha!
Every star above, baby,
Knows the one I love:
Sweet Sue - just you!
And the moon on high, baby,
Knows the reason why:
Sweet Sue - is you!
No one else it seems,
Ever shared my dreams,
Without you I don't know what I'd do.
In this heart of mine,
You live all the time,
Something in the way she moves,
Attracts me like no other lover.
Something in the way she woos me.
I don't wanna leave her now,
You know I believe, and how.
Somewhere in her smile she knows,
That I don't need no other lover.
Something in her style that shows me.
I don't wanna leave her now,
You know I believe and how.
You're asking me will my love grow,
I don't know, I don't know.
You stick around now, it may show,
I don't know, I don't know.
Something in the way she knows,
And all I have to do is think of her.
Something in the things she shows me.
I don't wanna leave her now.
There's a somebody I'm longin' to see
I hope that she, turns out to be
Someone who'll watch over me
I'm a little lamb who's lost in the wood
I know I could, always be good
To one who'll watch over me
Although I may not be the man some
Girls think of as handsome
To her heart I carry the key
Won't you tell her please to put on some speed
Follow my lead, oh, how I need
Someone to watch over me
(bridge)
Won't you tell her please to put on some speed
Follow my lead, oh, how I need
Someone to watch over me
Hide your heart from sight,
Lock your dreams at night,
It could happen to you.
Don't count stars
Or you might stumble,
Someone drops a sigh
And down you tumble,
Keep an eye on spring,
Run when church bells ring.
It could happen to you
All I did was wonder
How your arms would be
Imagination is funny, it makes a cloudy day sunny
Makes a bee think of honey just as I think of you
Imagination is crazy, your whole perspective gets hazy
Starts you asking a daisy "What to do, what to do?"
Have you ever felt a gentle touch and then a kiss
And then and then, find it's only your imagination again?
Oh, well
Imagination is silly, you go around willy-nilly
For example I go around wanting you
I’ve never been in love before
now all at once it’s you
it’s you forever more
I’ve never been in love before
I thought my heart was safe
I thought I knew the score
But this is wine
It’s all too strange and strong
I’m full of foolish song
And out my song must pour
So please forgive this helpless haze I’m in
I’ve really never been
in love before
[horn solo]
But this is wine
It’s all too strange and strong
I’m full of foolish song
And out my song must pour
So please forgive this helpless haze I’m in
I’ve really never been
For you I sigh, for you dear only
Why haven't you seen it?
I'm all for you, body and soul
I spend my days in longing
And wondering why it's me you're wronging
I tell you, I mean it
I'm all for you, body and soul
I can't believe it, it's hard to conceive it
That you'd turn away romance
Are you pretending it looks like the ending
Unless, I could have one more chance to prove dear
My life a wreck you're making
You know I'm yours for just the taking
I'd gladly surrender
Myself to you, body and soul
My life a wreck you're making
You know I'm yours for just the taking
I'd gladly surrender
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 suddenly appeared before me
The only one my arms could ever hold
I heard somebody whisper 'please adore me'
But when I looked, that 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
And then suddenly appeared before me
The only one my arms could ever hold
I heard somebody whisper 'please adore me'
But when I looked, that moon had turned to gold
Blue moon
Now I'm no longer alone
Without a dream in my heart
You're mine, you
You belong to me, you
I Will never free you
You're here with me to stay
You're mine, you
You're mine completely
Love me strong and sweetely
I need you night and day
Arm in arm, hand in hand
We will be fun together
Heart to heart, lips to lips
We're chained and bond together
I own you
I don't need to buy love
You're a slave to my love in every way
You're mine
Arm in arm, hand in hand
We will be fun together
Heart to heart, lips to lips
We're chained and bond together
I own you
I don't need to buy love
You're a slave to my love in every way
You make me feel so young
You make me feel so spring has sprung
And every time I see you grin
I'm such a happy individual
The moment that you speak
I want to go play hide-and-seek
I want to go and bounce the moon
Just like a toy balloon
You and me, are just like a couple of tots
Running across the meadow
Picking up lots of forget-me-nots
****
You make me feel so young
You make me feel there are songs to be sung
Bells to be rung
And a wonderful fling to be flung
And even when I’m old and gray
I'm gonna feel the way I do today
Cause you make me feel so young
Repeat ****
So young
Oh...there's a lull in my life.
It's just a void, an empty space,
When you are not in my embrace.
Oh...there's a lull in my life.
The moment that you go away,
There is no night, there is no day.
The clock stops ticking,
The world stops turning.
Everything stops
But that flame in my heart
That keeps burning...burning...
Oh...there's a lull in my life.
No matter I may pretend,
I know that you alone can end
The ache in my heart,
The call of my arms...
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
There is no greater love
Than what I feel for you
No greater love, no heart so true
There is no greater thrill
Than what you bring to me
No sweeter song
Than what you sing to me
Youre the sweetest thing
I have ever known
And to think that you are mine alone
There is no greater love
In all the world, its true
No greater love
The touch of your lips upon my brow,
Your lips that are cool and sweet,
Such tenderness lies in their soft caress,
My heart forgets to beat.
When troubles get me, cares beset me
And won't let me go,
I turn to you for consolation.
There I find new peace of mind;
To leave behind my woe
I turn to you as I shall always do.
The touch of your lips upon my brow,
Your lips that are cool and sweet,
Such tenderness lies in their soft caress,
My heart forgets to beat.
The touch of your hands upon my head,
The love in your eyes a-shine,
And now, at last, that moment divine,
The thrill is gone
The thrill is gone
I can see it in your eyes
I can hear it in your sighs
Feel your touch and realize
The thrill is gone.
The nights are cold,
For love is old,
Love was grand when love was new,
Birds were singin', skies were blue,
Now it don't appeal to you...
The thrill is gone.
This is the end,
So why pretend
And let it linger on?
The thrill is gone.
Now it gonna appeal to you,
i hear music when i look at you
a beautiful theme of every dream i ever knew
down deep in my heart i hear it play
i can feel it start, then it melts away
i hear music when i touch your hand
a beautiful melody from some enchanted land
down deep in my heart, i hear it say
"is this the day?"
i alone have heard this lovely strain
i alone have heard this glad refrain
must it be forever inside of me?
why can't i let it go? why can't i let you know?
why can't i let you know the song my heart would sing?
beautiful rhapsody of love and youth and spring
the music is sweet, and the words are true
the song is you
why can't i let you know the song my heart would sing?
that beautiful rhapsody of love and youth and spring
the music is sweet, and the words are true
There was a moon out in space
But a cloud drifted over its face
You kissed me and went on your way
The night we called it a day
I heard the song of the spheres
Like a minor lament in my ears
I hadn't the heart left to pray
The night we called it a day
Soft through the dark
The hoot of an owl in the sky
Sad though his song
No bluer was he than I
The moon went down stars were gone
But the sun didn't rise with the dawn
There wasn't a thing left to say
I saw you last night and got that old feeling
When you came in sight, I got that old feeling
The moment you came by, I felt a thrill
And when you caught my eye, my heart stood still
Once again, I seemed to have that old yearning
And I knew the spark of love was still burning
There'll be no new romance for me, it's foolish to start
For that old feeling is still in my heart
I saw you last night and got that old feeling
When you came in sight, I got that old feeling
The moment you came by, I felt a thrill
And when you caught my eye, my heart stood still
Once again, I seemed to have that old yearning
And I knew the spark of love was still burning
There'll be no new romance for me, it's foolish to start
Long ago my heart and mind
Got together and designed
The wonderful girl for me
Oh what a fantasy
Thought the ideal of my heart
Can't be ordered a la carte
I wonder if she will be
Always a fantasy
Will I ever find the girl in my mind?
The one who is my ideal
Maybe she's a dream and yet she might be
Just around the corner waiting for me
Will I recognize the light in her eyes
That no other eyes reveal
Or will I pass her by and never even know
That she was my ideal
[Instrumental solos]
Will I recognize the light in her eyes
That no other eyes reveal
Or will I pass her by and never even know
I took one look at you
That's all I meant to do
And then my heart
Stood still
My feet could step and walk
My lips could move and talk
And yet my heart
Stood still
Though not a single word was spoken
I could tell you knew
That unfelt clasp of hands
Told me so, well, you knew
I never lived at all
Until the thrill of
That moment when my heart
My Funny Valentine
Sweet Comic Valentine
You Make Me Smile With My Heart
You're Looks Are Laughable,
Unphotographable
Yet You're My Favorite Work Of Art
Is Your FigureLess Than Greek
Is Your Mouth A Little Weak
When You Open It To Speak
Are You Smart
Don't Change A Hair For Me
Not If You Care For Me
Stay Little Valentine Stay
Nights are long since you went away I think about you all
thru the day My buddy, My buddy, No buddy quite so true
Miss your voice, The touch of your hand Just long to know
that you understand My buddy, My buddy, Ooh your buddy
misses you
Miss your voice, The touch of your hand Just long to know
that you understand My buddy, My buddy, Your buddy misses
Look for the silver lining
Whenever a cloud appears in the blue.
Remember somewhere the sun is shining,
And so the right thing to do,
Is make it shine for you.
A heart, full of joy and gladness,
Will always banish sadness and strife.
So always look for the silver lining,
Lately I find myself out gazing at stars
Hearing guitars like someone in love
Sometimes the things I do astound me
Mostly whenever you're around me
Lately I seem to walk as though I have wings
And to sing like someone in love
Each time I look at you I'm light as a cloud
And feeling like someone in love.
Sometimes the things I do astound me
Mostly whenever you're around me.
Lately I seem to walk as though I have wings
Bump into things like someone in love
Each time I look at you I'm light as a cloud
And feeling like someone in love
"Let’s get lost, lost in each other’s arms
Let’s get lost, let them send out alarms
And though they’ll think us rather rude
Let’s tell the world we’re in that crazy mood.
Let’s defrost in a romantic mist
Let’s get crossed off everybody’s list
To celebrate this night we found each other, mmm, let’s get lost
[horn solo] [piano solo]
Let’s defrost in a romantic mist
Let’s get crossed off everybody’s list
To celebrate this night we found each other, mm, let’s get lost
Just friends
Lovers no more
Just friends
But not like before
To think of what we've been
And not to kiss again
Seems like pretending
It isn't the ending
Two friends
Drifting apart
Two friends
But one broken heart
We loved we laughed we cried
Then suddenly love died
The story ended
And we're
Just friends
Two friends
Drifting apart
Two friends
But one broken heart
We loved we laughed and we cried
Then suddenly love died
The story ended
And we're
Whenever its early twilight
I watch ‘til a star breaks through
Funny, its not a star I see
It’s always you
Whenever I roam through roses
And lately I often do
Funny, its not a rose I touch
It’s always you
If a breeze caresses me
It’s really you strolling by
If I hear a melody
It’s merely the way you sigh
Wherever you are, you’re near me
You dare me to be untrue
Funny, each time I fall in love
It’s always you
If a breeze caresses me
It’s really you strolling by
If I hear a melody
It’s merely the way you sigh
Wherever you are, you’re near me
You dare me to be untrue
Funny, each time I fall in love
I’m old fashioned, I love the moonlight
I love the old fashioned things
The sound of rain upon a window pane
The starry song that April sings
This years fancies are passing fancies
But sighing sighs, holding hands
These my heart understands
I’m old fashioned but I don’t mind it
That’s how I want to be
As long as you agree
To stay old fashioned with me.
I’m old fashioned but I don’t mind it
That’s how I want to be
As long as you agree
"I Remember You
You're the one who made my dreams
Come true
A few kisses ago
I remember you
You're the one who said
I love you too
Didn't you know
And I remember too a distant bell
And stars that fell
Like rain
Out of the blue
When my life is through
And the angels ask me
To recall
The thrill of them all
Then I shall tell them
I Remember You !
Trumpet Solo
Piano Solo
I remember too a distant bell
And stars that fell
Like rain
Out of the blue
When my life is through
And the angels ask me
To recall
The thrill of them all
Then I shall tell them
I remember you!
If they should ask
I'll gladly tell them
I get along without you very well,
Of course I do,
Except when soft rains fall
And drip from leaves, then I recall
The thrill of being sheltered in your arms.
Of course, I do,
But I get along without you very well.
I've forgotten you just like I should,
Of course I have,
Except to hear your name,
Or someone's laugh that is the same,
But I've forgotten you just like I should.
What a guy, what a fool am I,
To think my breaking heart could kid the moon.
What's in store? Should I phone once more?
No, it's best that I stick to my tune.
I get along without you very well,
Of course I do,
Except perhaps in Spring,
But I should never think of Spring,
I fall in love too easily
I fall in love too fast
I fall in love too terribly hard
For love to ever last
My heart should be well schooled
‘Cause I’ve been fooled in the past
But still I fall in love so easily
I fall in love too fast
My heart should be well schooled
‘Cause I’ve been fooled in the past
But still I fall in love so easily
lately
you've been so forgetful
a kind of a stop and go forgetfulness
that bothers me
kisses
i once had a netful
but you've been forgetful
and i'm never kissed
and it bothers me
romance
never any romance
no chance
and it bothers me
and someday
when you are regretful
you'll wish you had tried much less forgetfulness
you'll be upset
and forgetful
won't be able
Everytime we say goodbye, I die a little,
Everytime we say goodbye, I wonder why a little,
Why the gods above me, who must be in the know.
Think so little of me, they allow you to go.
When youre near, theres such an air of spring about it,
I can hear a lark somewhere, begin to sing about it,
Theres no love song finer, but how strange the change
from major to
Minor,
Everytime we say goodbye.
When youre near, theres such an air of spring about it,
I can hear a lark somewhere, begin to sing about it,
Theres no love song finer, but how strange the change
from major to
Minor,
Embrace me
My sweet embraceable you
Embrace me
My irreplaceable you
Just to look at you
My heart grows tipsy in me
You and you alone
Bring out the gypsy in me
I love all
The many charms about you
Above all
I want my arms about you
Dont be naughty baby
Come to me
Come to me do
My sweet embraceable you
I love all
The many charms about you
Above all
I want my arms about you
Dont be naughty baby
Come to me
Come to me do
Living for you is easy living
It's easy to live when you're in love
And I'm so in love
There is nothing in life but you
I never regret the years that I'm giving
They're easy to give when you're in love
I'm happy to do whatever I do for you
For you maybe I'm a fool
But it's fun
People say you rule me with one wave of your hand
Darling, it's grand
They just don't understand
Living for you is easy living
It's easy to live when you're in love
And I'm so in love
Do it the hard way,
and its easy sailing.
Do it the hard way,
and it's hard to loose.
Only the soft way
has a chance of failing.
You have to choose.
I tried the hard way,
when I tried to get you.
You took the soft way,
when you said "we'll see".
Darling, now i let you
do it the hard way,
I dim all the lights and I sink in my chair.
The smoke from my cigarette climbs through the air.
The walls of my room fade away in the blue,
And I'm deep in a dream of you.
The smoke makes a stairway for you to descend;
You come to my arms, may this bliss never end,
For we love anew just as we used to do
When I'm deep in a dream of you.
Then from the ceiling, sweet music comes stealing;
We glide through a lover's refrain, you're so appealing
That I'm soon revealing my love for you over again.
My cigarette burns me, I wake with a start;
My hand isn't hurt, but there's pain in my heart.
Awake or asleep, ev'ry mem'ry I'll keep
Daybreak, another new day, the mist on the meadow is
drifting away,
For it's daybreak, the sun's in the sky now,
And flowers break through their blanket of dew,
Sunrise, how lovely it seems, to see from my window a
sky full of dreams,
As the white clouds sail on through the blue, at
She dances overhead
On the ceiling near my bed
In my sight
All through the night
I try to hide in vain
Underneath my counterpane
But theres my love
Up there above
I whisper, go away, my lover
Its not fair
But Im so grateful to discover
That shes still there
I love my ceiling more
Since it is a dancing floor
I'm gonna love you like nobody's loved you,
Come rain or come shine.
High as a mountain and 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 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.
Happy together, unhappy together
And won't it be fine.
Days may be cloudy or sunny,
We're in or we're out of the money,
But I'm with you always,
They're writing songs of love, but not for me.
A lucky star's above, but not for me.
With love to lead the way
I've found more clouds of grey
than any Russian play could guarantee.
I was a fool to fall and get that way;
Heigh-ho! Alas! And also, lack-a-day!
Although I can't dismiss the memory of her kiss,
Some folks were meant to live in clover
but they are such a chosen few
and clovers being green
is something i've never seen
'cause i was born to be blue
When there's a yellow moon above me
they say there's moonbeams i shoul view
but moonbeams being gold
are something i can't behold
'cause i was born to be blue
When i met you
the world was bright and sunny
when you left the courtain fell
i'd like to laugh
but nothing strikes me funny
now my world's a faded pastel
I guess i'm luckier than some folks
i've known the thrill of loving you
but that alone is more
than i was created for
'cause i was born to be blue
When i met you
the world was bright and sunny
but when you left the courtain fell
i'd like to laugh
but there's nothing that strikes me funny
now my world's a faded pastel
Baby Jane don't leave me hanging on the line
I knew you when you had no one to talk to
Now you're moving in high society
don't forget
I know secrets about you
I used to think you were on my side but now
I'm no longer sure
I wish I knew what
I know now before
When I give my heart again
I know it's gonna last forever
No one tell me where or when
I know it's gonna last forever
Baby Jane don't it make you feel sad just when
I thought that we were winning
You and I were so close in every way don't time fly when you're loving and laughing
I've said goodbye so many times the situation ain't all that new Optimism's my best defense
I'll get through without you
When I give my heart again
I know it's gonna last forever
No one tell me where or when
I know it's gonna last forever
I won't be that dumb again I know it's gotta last forever
When I fall in love again I know it's gonna last forever
Baby Jane
I've said all I want to say go your own way don't think twice about me
Cause I've got ideas and plans of my own so long darlin'
I'll miss you believe me
The lesson learned was so hard to swallow but
I know that I'll survive
I'm gonna take a good look at myself and cry
When I give my heart again I know it's gonna last forever
No one tell me where or when I know it's gonna last forever
When I fall in love next time I know it's gonna last forever
The falling leaves drift by my window
The falling leaves of red and gold
I see your lips the summer kisses
The sunburned 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
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
I miss you most of all my darling
You must remember this
A kiss is still a kiss
A sigh is 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
Try to think that love's not around
But it's uncomfortably near
My old heart ain't gaining no ground
Because my angel eyes ain't here
Angel eyes, that old devil sent
They glow unbearably bright
Need I say that my love's mispent
Mispent with angel eyes tonight
So drink up all you people
Order anything you see
Have fun you happy people
The laughs and the jokes are on me
Pardon me but I got to run
The fact's uncommonly clear
Got to find who's now number one
And why my angel eyes ain't here
Oh, where is my angel eyes
Excuse me while I disappear
TOMMY:
Maybe the sun gave me the pow'r,
For I could swim Loch Lomond and be home in half an
hour.
Maybe the air gave me the drive,
For I'm all aglow and alive.
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 could swear I was falling, I would swear I was
falling,
It's almost like being in love.
When we walked up the brae,
FIONA:
Not a word did we say,
It was...almost like bein' in love.
But your arm link'd in mine made the world kind o'
fine.
TOMMY:
It was...almost like being in love!
FIONA:
All the music of life seems to be
TOMMY:
Like a bell that is ringing for me!
BOTH:
And from the way that I feel when that bell starts to
peal,
FIONA:
I could swear I was fallin',
TOMMY:
I would swear I was falling,
BOTH:
It's almost like being in love!
Almost blue
Almost doing things we used to do
Theres a girl here and she's almost you
Almost all the things that you promised with your eyes
I see in hers too
Now your eyes are red from crying
Almost blue
Flirting with this disaster became me
It named me as the fool who only aimed to be
Almost blue
Almost touching it will always do
Theres a part of me thats always true... always
All the things that you promised with your eyes
I see in hers too
Now your eyes are red from crying
Almost blue
Almost you
I make a date for golf, and you can bet your life it rains.
I try to give a party, and the guy upstairs complains.
I guess I'll go through life, just catching colds and missing trains.
Everything happens to me.
I never miss a thing. I've had the measles and the mumps.
And every time I play an ace, my partner always trumps.
I guess I'm just a fool, who never looks before he jumps.
Everything happens to me.
At first, my heart thought you could break this jinx for me.
That love would turn the trick to end despair.
But now I just can't fool this head that thinks for me.
I've mortgaged all my castles in the air.
I've telegraphed and phoned and sent an air mail special too.
Your answer was goodbye and there was even postage due.
I fell in love just once, and then it had to be with you.
Everything happens to me.

Grown accustomed to her looks
Oh I, I've grown, grown accustomed to her voice
I've grown accustomed to her face
She almost makes the day begin
I've grown accustomed to the tune
She whistles night and noon
Her smiles, her frowns, her ups and her downs
Are second nature to me now
(Second nature)
Like breathing out and breathing in
(Breathing out and in)
I was serenely independent and content before we met
Surely I could always be that way again and yet
I've grown accustomed to her looks
Accustomed to her voice, accustomed to her face
Grown accustomed to her looks
Grown accustomed to her voice
I've grown accustomed to her face
She almost makes the day begin
(Day begin)
I've gotten used to hear her say
"Good morning", every day
Her joys, her woes, her highs, her lows
Are second nature to me now
(Second nature)
Like breathing out and breathing in
(Breathing out and in)
I'm so grateful she's a woman and so easy to forget
Rather like a habit one can always break and yet
I've grown accustomed to the trace of something in the air
Accustomed to her face
Grown accustomed to her looks
Grown accustomed to her trace
I've grown accustomed to her voice
Grown accustomed to her face
She's second nature to me now
Like breathing out and breathing in
(Breathing out and breathing in)
I was serenely independent and content before we met
Surely I could always be that way again and yet
I've grown accustomed to her looks
Accustomed to her voice, I've accustomed to her face
Her looks
(I can't believe)
Her trace
(How much I love her)
Her voice
Her face
(I'm addicted to you, baby)
Her looks
Her trace
(Because your love that drives me crazy)
Her voice
Her face
Grown accustomed to her voice
(You know I finally realize)
Grown accustomed to her face
(I got to hold it by my side)
Grown accustomed to her looks
(I wanna be, be your ornament)
Grown accustomed to her trace
('Cause I love you, baby, please take my hand)
Grown accustomed to her voice
(I'll be good to you each and everyday)
Grown accustomed to her face
(I've grown accustomed)
Grown accustomed to her looks
Grown accustomed to her trace
(Can't live if the livin' is without you)
Grown accustomed to her voice
Grown accustomed to her face

I could cry salty tears ;
Where have I been all these years ?
Little wow, tell me now :
How long has this been going on ?
There were chills up my spine,
And some thrills I can't define.
Listen, sweet, I repeat :
how long has this been going on ?
Oh, I feel that I could melt ;
Into Heaven I'm hurled !
I know how Clombus felt,
Finding another world.
Kiss me once, then once more.
What a dunce I was before.
What a break ! For Heaven's sake !
How long has this been going on ?
Oh, I feel that I could melt ;
Into Heaven I'm hurled !
I know how Clombus felt,
Finding another world.
Kiss me twice, then once more.
That makes thrice, let's make it four !
What a break ! For Heaven's sake !
How long has this been going on ?
You're my thrill
You do something to me
You send chills right through me
When I look at you
'cause you're my thrill
You're my thrill
How my pulse increases
I just go to pieces
When I look at you
'cause you're my thrill
Hmmm-nothing seems to matter
Hmmm-here's my heart on a silver platter
Where's my will
Why this strange desire
That keeps morning higher
When I look at you
I cannt keep still
You go to my head
You go to my head,
And you linger like a haunting refrain
And I find you spinning round in my brain
Like the bubbles in a glass of champagne.
You go to my head
Like a sip of sparkling burgundy brew
And I find the very mention of you
Like the kicker in a julep or two.
The thrill of the thought
That you might give a thought
To my plea casts a spell over me
Still I say to myself: get a hold of yourself
Can't you see that it can never be?
You go to my head
With smile that makes my temperature rise
Like a summer with a thousand Julys
You intoxicate my soul with your eyes
Tho I'm certain that this heart of mine
Hasn't a ghost of a chance in this crazy romance,
You don’t know what love is
Until you’ve learned the meaning of the blues
Until you’ve loved a love you had to loose
You don’t know what love is
You don’t know how lips hurt
Until you’ve kissed and had to pay the cost
Until you’ve flipped you’re heart and you have lost
You don’t know what love is
Do you know how lost hearts fear
The thought of reminiscing
And how lips that taste of tears
Loose the taste for kissing
You don’t know how hearts yearn
For love that cannot live yet never dies
Until you’ve faced each dawn with sleepless eyes
This isn't sometimes, this is always.
This isn't maybe, this is always.
This is love,
The real beginning of forever,
This isn't just mid summer madness,
A passing glow, a moment's gladness,
Yes it's love.
I knew it on the night we met,
You tied a string around my heart,
So how can I forget you.
With every kiss I know that
A cigarette that bears a lipstick's traces
An airline ticket to romantic places
And still my heart has wings
These foolish things remind me of you
A tinkling piano in the next apartment
Those stumblin' words that told you what my heart meant
A fairground's painted swings
These foolish things remind me of you
You came, you saw, you conquered me
When you did that to me
I knew somehow this had to be
The winds of March that make my heart a dancer
A telephone that rings but who's to answer?
Oh, how the ghost of you clings
These foolish things remind me of you
let me tell you
first daffodills and all excited cables
and candlelights on little corner tables
and still my heart has wings
These foolish things
Remind me of you
The park at evening and scented roses
and waiters whisling as the last bar closes
the beauty that is spring springs
How strange, how sweet, to find you still
These things are dear to me
They seem to bring you so near to me
The sigh of midnight trains in empty stations
Silk stockings thrown aside dance invitations
Oh how the ghost of you clings
These foolish things
Remind me of you
These foolish things
I looked at you and suddenly
Something in your eyes I see
Soon begins bewitching me
It's that old devil moon
That you stole from the sky
It's that old devil moon in your eyes
You and your glance makes this romance too hot to
handle
Stars in the night blazin' their light can't hold a
candle
To your razzle dazzle
You've got me flyin' high and wide
On a magic carpet ride
Full of butterflies inside
I just wanna cry
Wanna croon
Wanna laugh like a loon
It's that old devil moon in your eyes
Just when I think I'm free as a dove
Old evil moon deep in your eyes
Blinds me with love
I looked at you and suddenly
Something in your eyes I see
Soon begins bewitching me
I looked at you and suddenly
Something in your eyes I see
Soon begins bewitching me
It's that old devil moon
That you stole from the sky
It's that old devil moon in your eyes
You and your glance makes this romance too hot to
handle
Stars in the night blazin' their light can't hold a
candle
To your razzle dazzle
You've got me flyin' high and wide
On a magic carpet ride
Full of butterflies inside
I just wanna cry
Wanna croon
Wanna laugh like a loon
It's that old devil moon in your eyes
Just when I think I'm free as a dove
Old evil moon deep in your eyes
