I know you so well I can tell by the sound of your voice If you're really in love with me And you are And You are You know I can't lie If I say to you 'baby I love you' Then baby I love you Oh and I do Yes I do I do could it be that's the Phrase you thought never would phase you Well baby you better hold on tight 'Cause I'm the one who's supposed to Kneel down and propose well alright I might I might So when I kiss you good night Just sleep tight with the thought that you'll Always be caught up in love with me And you'll dream that the stars up above Have the answer of whether we'll be Or whether we won't be In love Well we are Yes we are

Turn off the musicTake down the signs Pack up the boxes Put away the wine No toast for the future No reward for the find If looks could kill This mirror would do Only 'cause I don't have you Later on good wishes Later on good try I'm afraid won't do It's not justified You go from the privy And you end up deprived On top of the world But still there's no view Only 'cause I don't have you Not built on a wisp or whim Twist an arm, break a leg Tear me limb from limb If there's a point you've made it If there's a fare I've paid it Don't bother with ovations Leave off the fanfare Let the candles melt down Till the smoke's all that's there Leave the veil in place A tear, la mer I could say it was nothing Now that there's nothing new Only 'cause I don't have you
A little bit of me and a whole lot of you Add a dash of starlight and a dozen roses, too Then let it rise for a hundred years or two And that's the recipe for making love It doesn't need sugar 'cause it's already sweet It doesn't need an oven 'cause it's got a lot of heat Just add a dash of kisses to make it all complete And that's the recipe for making love And if you've made it right you'll know it It's not like anything you've made before And if you've made it wrong you'll know it 'Cause it won't keep you coming back for more I didn't get it from my grandma's book upon the shelf I didn't get it from a magical and culinary elf NO, a little birdie told me you can't make it by yourself And that's the recipe for making love
It's not like anything you've made before And if you've made it wrong you'll know it 'Cause it won't keep you coming back for more I didn't get it from my grandma's book upon the shelf I didn't get it from a magical and culinary elf NO, a little birdie told me you can't make it by yourself And that's the recipe for making love
I see your eyes drifting, driftingI'm really not that naiveYou wear a smile but it's drifting, driftingWhile I wear my heart on my sleeveI feel your coldness against my skinI know what follows the autumn windAnd though you say your
Meet me on the corner of close and soon I'll have a song in my head And my hands on a tune Nothing lasts forever So I guess I better Take you forever For now
Meet me in the lobby of destiny I'll have a ribbon on my shoulders And a halo over me If nothing lasts forever Then I guess I better Take you forever For now
Under a clock By an information desk I'll be there will bells on By an old oak A fountain in the park Just don't be long By the ticket counter for love in spring I'll be standin' there with cupid And he can aim that thing If nothing lasts forever Then I figure I better Take you forever For now

That certain night, the night we met There was magic abroad in the air, There were angels dining at the Ritz and A nightingale sang on Berk’ley Square. I may be right, I may be wrong, But I’m perfectly willing to swear That when you turn’d and smiled at me A nightingale sang on Berk’ley Square. The moon that lingered over London town, Poor puzzled moon, he wore a frown. How could he know we two were so in love. The whole darn world seemed upside down, The streets of town were paved with stars. It was such a romantic affair, And as we kiss’d and said “goodnight? A nightingale sang on Berk’ley Square

Even if the sun comes in between The man in the moon is smiling 'cause he's in love The man in the moon is smiling 'cause he's in love with the girl in the world She's there in the evening She never comes late All day she spins around But never makes him wait The girl in the world is smiling 'cause she's in love The girl in the world is smiling 'cause she's in love with the man in the moon When two heavenly bodies glow All the stars agree A planet might be born Maybe even a galaxy And in the morning They don't say good-bye But with a kiss They blend into the sky Oh, they're smiling 'cause they're in love The man in the moon is smiling 'cause he's in love with the girl in the world The man in the moon is smiling 'cause he's in love with the girl in the world Heavenly!
The last days in May Before summer lay claim Back in the school yard We made up a game Now is always Is always the same Too bad always always ends I remember I remember when But I was just just a boy then Innocent envy Without compromise Recommendations All ill advised Tall tales And little white lies The truth had to bend I remember I remember when But I was just just a boy then
Now that we're tall And all grown A house a car Lives of our own We can put off But we can't postpone The way we become men I remember I remember when But I was just just a boy then
I've got a great idea And wouldn't you like to know You probably can't bear it So I guess I'll have to share it I thought of it a moment ago It starts with your hand in mine And next comes a little stroll You probably won't buy it But I'm trying to keep it quiet So please don't tell a soul 'Cause if you do The world and you Will think I'm crazy and give me medicine They'll drag me away And as I go you'll hear me say I could have been a decent match for Edison Ideas are few and far between And good ideas are rarer still So listen and be wise Just forget the other guys 'Cause my idea's no good for three My idea is you and me
if you do The world and you Will think I'm crazy and give me medicine They'll drag me away And as I go you'll hear me say I could have been a decent match for Edison Ideas are few and far between And good ideas are rarer still So listen and be wise Just forget the other guys 'Cause my idea's no good for three My idea is you and me
I spent last night dreaming of your eyes But your hair kept getting in the way Your lips dropped in to tell me how you'd been But when I tried to kiss them My pillow told me I missed them Your voice dropped by and sang a lullaby And it was then I knew just what to do I'd fall asleep and then I'd dream of you again
Your voice dropped by and sang a lullaby And it was then I knew just what to do I'd fall asleep and then I'd dream of you again
It's the wrong time and the wrong place Though your face is charming it's the wrong face It's not her face but it's such a charming face That it's alright with me It's the wrong song in the wrong style Though your smile is lovely it's the wrong smile It's not her smile but it's such a lovely smile That it's alright with me You can't know how happy I am that we met I'm strangely attracted to you There's someone I'm trying so hard to forget Don't you want to forget someone too It's the wrong game with the wrong chips Though your lips are tempting they're the wrong lips They're not her lips but they're such tempting lips It's alright with me
You can't know how happy I am that we met I'm strangely attracted to you There's someone I'm trying so hard to forget Don't you want to forget someone too It's the wrong game with the wrong chips Though your lips are tempting they're the wrong lips They're not her lips but they're such tempting lips That if some night you're free It's alright with me
The sun sets red with rage White clouds float by Like high cotton Blank as an empty page Blue is a color buried Not forgotten Sweet as mother's milk And clear as the wind Wrap the dead in a pleat of silk Blue is the color to be buried in When you left Leaving nothing behind There's no one to blame No criminal, no crime You can report a missing person But not a stolen heart And I'm missing a person To whom stealing was an art The painting's complete The brush strokes dry I hear a band playing A bent note or two I guess someone died And just wants to be Buried in blue

Took a minight train Headed way back east Left behind some pain In hopes of finding some peace Fortunatly caught one Bound for my old neighborhood Either way, between us, it's good
They're building a bridge Links Manhattan with the heartland It's called the califonia ridge The country need to expand Saw them lay the first stone It was made of wood Either way, between us, it's good
In an age of greys When wrong won't become right Let's lift the haze And scale the heights
Set my shouders straight Took a deep breath This meeting I anticipate Unlike impending death Strode on to the platform And there you stood At worst, between us, it's good
In an age of greys When wrong won't become right Let's lift the haze And scale the heights
Set my shouders straight Took a deep breath This meeting I anticipate Unlike impending death Strode on to the platform And there you stood At worst, between us, it's good
La Rouge lies awake at night Doesn't sleep for days Guess he's carryin somethin The pillows can't take away I feel just like him 'Cept for me it's double Baby I got you, and you're
*Trouble Trouble I used to not need nothin Now trouble is all I need
Well Tessie loves excitement Can make a dull moment a thrill She does whatever she wants Then puts it on my bill But that ain't so expensive Got it covered in my sleep See dawlin' I got you And baby you're
*
I wouldn't bet against myself In a poker game Or build a house In a hurricane And lose everything I had And spend the rest of my life gone mad In a way it would be a relief It really wouldn't be so bad See dawlin' I got you and baby you're
Trouble Trouble I used to not need nothin I used to not need nothin I used to not need nothin Now trouble is all I need
Somebody was spreading rumors 'Bout better days a comin Why was I hummin As if I knew One and the same But I just whispered your name
Somebody was sayin something 'Bout there being an end to tyranny But when they asked me What would I do... If that day came I only whispered your name
Everyone got their own opinion And protects their own dominion No doubt for them it's true But I tell them what I really believe My only worry is protecting you
No one should ever be lonely We'd all find somebody to care Ask me if I dare To answer who... Could carry that flame I'd just whisper your name
I is just what I was And am ain't who I be To love the language You got to be born On the banks of the Mississippi
Ax' ya "x" what talks in tongues Say: "never mo' neither me" To love the language You got to be born On the banks of the Mississippi
Stayin by my mama's In slippers and pajamas Where there's always somethin good to eat Bettin strawberries Honey and cherries And pecan-pies oh so sweet
With a dew-rag on my brow Jasmine, wysteria and fleur-de-lis To love the language You got to be born On the banks of the Mississippi
If you won't work fo' a livin And live life leisurely Pull up a screen po-ch Flop out in a rockin chair To love the language You got to be born On the banks of the Mississippi
