Alone from night to night you'll find me.
Too weak to break the chains that bind me. I need no shackles to remind me I'm just a prisoner of love. For one command I stand and wait now, From one who's master of my fate now. I can't escape, for it's too late now. I'm just a prisoner of love. What's the good of my caring If someone is sharing Those arms with me? Although she has another, I can't find another, For I'm not free. She's in my dreams, awake or sleeping. Upon my knees, to her I'm creeping. My very life is in her keeping. I'm just a prisoner of love. |

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 try so not to give in I say to myself this affair, it never will go so well But why do I try to resist when honey, I know damn well That I've got you under my skin. (1) I would sacrafice 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 you fool, aint' no way you can win Why not use your mentality, Get up, wake up to reality" But each time I try, just the thought of you Makes me stop just before I begin, 'Cos I've got you under my skin. big-band instrumental break repeat (1) And I like you under my skin |

My funny valentine...
Sweet, comic valentine... You make me smile with my heart Your looks are laughable, unphotographable yet your my favorite 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 change a hair for me Not if you care for me Stay little valentine Stay Each day is Valentine's Day |

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 |

When somebody loves you
Its no good unless he loves you.. All the way Happy to be near you When you need someone to cheer you All the way Taller than the tallest tree is Thats how its got to feel Deeper than the deep blue sea is Thats how deep it goes if its real When somebody needs you Its no good unless he needs you All the way Through the good or lean years And for all those in between years Come what may Who knows where the road will lead us Only a fool would say But if you let me love you Its for sure I'm gonna love you All the way All the way.... So if you let me love you Its for sure I'm gonna love you All the way All.. The ... Way |

It had to be you
It had to be you I wandered around And finally found The somebody who Could make me be true Could make me be blue Or even be glad Just to be sad Thinking of you Some others I've seen Might never been mean Might never be crossed Or try to be bossed 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 |

Fairy tales can come true,
it can happen to you If you're young at heart For it's hard, you will find, to be narrow of mind If you're young at heart You can go to extremes with impossible schemes You can laugh when your dreams fall apart at the seams And life gets more exciting with each passing day And love is either in your heart or on its way Don't you know that it's worth every treasure on Earth To be young at heart For as rich as you are it's much better by far To be young at heart And if you should survive to 105 Look at all you'll derive out of being alive Then here is the best part You have a head start If you are among the very young at heart And if you should survive to 105 Look at all you'll derive out of being alive Then here is the best part You have a head start If you are among the very young at heart |

Some enchanted evening, you may see a stranger,
You may see a stranger across a crowded room, And somehow you know, you know even then, That somehow you'll see here again and again. Some enchanted evening, someone may be laughing, You may hear her laughing across a crowded room, And night after night, as strange as it seems, The sound of her laughter will sing in your dreams. Who can explain it, who can tell you why? Fools give you reasons, wise men never try. Some enchanted evening, when you find your true love, When you hear her call you across a crowded room, Then fly to her side and make her your own, Or all through your life you may dream all alone. Once you have found her, never let her go, Once you have found her, never let her go. |

How little we know! How much to discover
What chemical forces flow from lover to lover! How little we understand what touches off that tingle, That sudden explosion when two tingles intermingle. Who cares to define what chemistry this is? Who cares, with your lips on mine, how ignorant bliss is? So long as you kiss me, and the world around us shatters, How little it matters, how little we know. How little we understand what touches off that tingle, That sudden explosion when two tingles intermingle. Who cares to define what chemistry this is? Who cares, with your lips on mine, how ignorant bliss is? So long as you kiss me, and the world around us shatters, How little it matters, how little we know. How little we know. How little we know. |

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 [3 different verses for every song] (Some like the perfume from Spain) (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 |

Love is lovelier the second time around
Just as wonderful with both feet on the ground It's that second time you hear your love song sung Makes you think perhaps that love, like youth, is wasted on the young Love's more comfortable the second time you fall Like a friendly home the second time you call Who can say what brought us to this miracle we've found? There are those who'll bet love comes but once and yet I'm oh so glad we met the second time around Who can say what brought us to this miracle we've found There are those who'll bet love comes but once and yet I'm oh so glad we met the second time around |

Is it an earthquake, or simply a shock
Is it that good turtle soup, or merely the mock Is it the whisky, this feeling of joy Or is what I feel, the real mcoy Is it for all time, or simply a lark Is it Granada I see, or only Asbury Park Is it a fancy, not worth thinking of Or is it at long last love |

Whenever skies look gray to me and trouble begins to brew
Whenever the winter winds become too strong I concentrate on you When fortune cries "Nay, nay" to me And people declare "You're through" Whenever the blues become my only songs I concentrate on you On your smile, so sweet, so tender When at first my kiss you do decline On the light in your eyes when you surrender And once again our arms intertwine And so when wise men say to me That love's young dream never comes true To prove that even the wise men can be wrong I concentrate on you |

I never caught stardust that fell from the skies.
I never saw moonlight in anyone's eyes, Then suddenly love kicks in the window, Love knocks down the door. Love, it sat down and told me, Lover, what are you waiting for? I never heard bluebirds, the songs that they sing, I never get crazy, not even in spring, Then suddenly love struck me like lightning, Love it blew up a storm, Love suddenly grabbed me, and ooh, was it cozy and warm 'Cause I found you, now I no longer just exist, Ooh, what a change, it started from the time we kissed, (And now we hear bluebirds), they hear bluebirds, (We're learning that tune) they like that tune, (And even yon moonlight) all that pretty moonlight (Comes down about you) Hotdog, them love, it's still on a heaven, Love, it gave me a shove, , I'm a-hearing those 'Cause suddenly |

A fine romance, with no kisses
A fine romance, my friend this is We should be like a couple of hot tomatoes But you're as cold as yesterday's mashed potatoes A fine romance, you won't nestle A fine romance, you won't wrestle I might as well play bridge With my old maid aunt I haven't got a chance This is a fine romance A fine romance, my good fellow You take romance, I'll take jello You're calmer than the seals In the Arctic Ocean At least they flap their fins To express emotion A fine romance with no quarrels With no insults and all morals I've never mussed the crease In your blue serge pants I never get the chance This is a fine romance |

What should I call this happy madness that I feel inside of me
Sometime of wild October gladness that I never thought I'd see What has become of all my sadness all my endless lonely sighs Where are my sorrows now What happened to the frown and is that self contented clown Standing grinning in the mirror really me I'd like to run through Central Park carve your initials in the bark of every tree I pass for every one to see I feel that I've gone back to childhood and I'm skipping through the wildwood So excited that I don't know what to do What do I care if I'm a juvenile I smile my secret little smile Because I know the change in me is you What should I call this happy madness all this unexpected joy That turned the world into a baby's bouncing toy The god's are laughing far above One of them gave a little shove And I fell gaily gladly madly into love |

Did you say (that) I've got a lot to learn Well don't think I'm trying not to learn Since this is the perfect spot to learn Teach me tonight Starting with the ABC of it Getting right down to the XYZ of it Help me solve the mystery of it Teach me tonight The sky's a blackboard high above you And if a shooting star goes by I'll use that star to write "I love you" A thousand times across the sky One thing isn't very clear my love Teachers shouldn't stand so near my love Graduation's almost here my love You'd better teach me tonight I've played loves scenes in a flick or two And I've also met a chick or two But I still can learn a trick or two Hey teach me tonight I who thought I knew the score of it Kind of think I should know much more of it Off the wall, the bed, the floor of it Hey teach me tonight The midnight hours come slowly creeping When there's no one there but you There must be more to life than sleeping Single in a bed for two What I need most is post graduate What I feel is hard to articulate If you want me to matriculate You'd better teach me tonight What do you get for lessons Teach me - come on and teach me - teach me tonight |

Bluebirds, flowers
Sunshine and showers Sunsets and rainbows On skies of red and blue Badges, whistles Rockets and missiles Puppies, kittens And penny candy too You make me feel so new Like carnivals and carousels Popsicles and wishing wells And I am so in love with you I can't believe it's true We're gonna make it all the way home Magic potions, Incense and lotions Bells, books and candles Can make a witches' brew But I don't need witches Love spells or riches You are my treasure My fairy tale come true With you is where I'll stay All the time, anywhere Turn around, and I'll be there It was I, now it's we And I know it will be You and me, all the way home Me and you, all the way home. |

I can only give you love that lasts forever,
And the promise to be near each time you call, And the only heart I own is yours and yours 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 to warm the winter night, that's all, that's all. There are those I am sure who have told you, They will give you the world for a toy. All I ask for these arms to enfold you, and a love, time can never destroy. If you're wond'ring 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 ever more, that's all, that's all. |
