You like potato and I like potahto You like tomato and I like tomahto Potato, potahto, Tomato, tomahto.

It's not the pale moon that excites me
that thrills or 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 |

We lived our little drama
We kissed in a field of white And stars fell on Alabama Last night I can't forget the glamour Your eyes held a tender light While (And) stars fell on Alabama (fractured 'Bama) Last night I never planned in my imagination A situation - so heavenly A fairy land where no one else could enter And in the center - just you and me My heart beat (just) like a hammer (My) Arms wound around you tight And (While) stars fell on Alabama Last night |

There are many many crazy things
That will keep me loving you And with your permission May I list a few The way you wear your hat The way you sip your tea The memory of all that No they can't take that away from me The way your smile just beams The way you sing off key The way you haunt my dreams No they can't take that away from me We may never never meet again, on that bumpy road to love But I'll always, always keep the memory of The way you hold your knife The way we danced till three The way you changed my life No they can't take that away from me |

[Ella]
Autumn in New York Why does it seem so inviting Autumn in New York It spells the thrill of first-nighting glittering crowds and shimmering clouds In canyons of steel They're making me feel - I'm home It's autumn in New York That brings the promise of new love Autumn in New York Is often mingled with pain Dreamers with empty hands They sigh for exotic lands It's autumn in New York It's good to live it again [Louis] Autumn in New York The gleaming rooftops at sundown Oh, Autumn in New York It lifts you up when you run down Yes, jaded rou굎 and gay divorc괻s Who lunch at the Ritz Will tell you that it's divine This autumn in New York Transforms the slums into Mayfair Oh, Autumn in New York You'll need no castles in Spain Yes, Lovers that bless the dark On the benches in Central Park Greet autumn in New York It's good to live it again [trumpet solo] [Ella] Autumn in New York That brings the promise of new love Autumn in New York Is often mingled with pain Dreamers with empty hands They sigh for exotic lands It's autumn in New York It's good to live it again |

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 |

Savoy, the home of sweet romance,
Savoy, it wins you with a glance, Savoy, gives happy feet a chance to dance. Your old form just like a clinging vine, Your lips so warm and sweet as wine, Your cheek so soft and close to mine, divine. How my heart is singing, While the band is swinging, I'm never tired of romping, And stomping with you at the Savoy. What joy - a perfect holiday, Savoy, where we can glide and sway, Savoy, let me stomp away with you; The home of sweet romance, It wins you at a glance, Gives happy feet a chance to dance. Just like a clinging vine, So soft and sweet as wine, So soft and close to mine, divine. How my heart is singing, While the band is swinging, I'm never, never, never tired of romping, And stomping with you at the Savoy. What joy - a perfect holiday, Savoy, where we can glide and sway, Savoy, let me stomp away with you; |

You won't be satisfied until you break my heart
You're never satisfied until the teardrops start I tried to shower you with lovin' kisses But all I ever get from you is naggin' & braggin', my poor heart is raggin' The way you toss my heart around's a cryin' shame I'll bet you wouldn't like it if I did the same You're only happy tearin' all my dreams apart You won't be satisfied until you break my heart The way you toss my heart around's a cryin' shame I'll bet you wouldn't like it if I did the same You're only happy tearin' all of my dreams apart Unless you hurt me and you'd know that I'd cried It doesn't seem as though you'll ever be satisfied |
