Day Dream

Day Dream why do you haunt me so
Deep in a rosy glow the face of my love you show
Day Dream I walk along on air building a castle there
For me and my love to share.
Don't know the time Lordy, I'm in a daze
Sun in the sky, while I moon around feeling hazy
Day Dream don't break my reverie until I find that
He is day dreaming just like me.
Don't know the time Lordy, I'm in a daze
Sun in the sky, while I moon around feeling hazy
Day Dream don't break my reverie until I find that
He is day dreaming just like me.

The moon belongs to everyone
The best things in life are free
The stars belong to everyone
They gleam there for you and for me
The flowers in spring, the robins that sing
The moonbeams that shine
They're yours, they're mine
And love can come to everyone
The best things in life are free

There's A Small Hotel
02:58
|

There's a small hotel
With a wishing well
I wish that we were there together
There's a (no) bridal suite
One room bright and neat
Complete for us to share together
Looking through the window
You can see a distant steeple
Not a sign of people – who wants people?
When the steeple bell says,
"Good night, sleep well, "
We'll thank the small hotel together

I'll be tired of you when stars are tired of gleaming
When I am tired of dreaming, then I'll be tired of you.
This I know is true, when winds are tired of blowing,
When grass is tired of growing, then I'll be tired of you.
Beyond the years,
'Til day is night, 'til wrong is right,
'Til birds refuse to sing,
Beyond the years, the echo of my only love
Will still be whispering, whispering.
And if my throbbing heart should ever start repeating
That it is tired of beating, then I'll be tired of you.

Something Good
03:27
|
|||
Perhaps I had a wicked childhood
Perhaps I had a miserable youth
But somewhere in my wicked, miserable past
There must have been a moment of truth
For here you are
Standing there
Loving me
Whether or not you should
So somewhere in my youth or childhood
I must have done something good
For here you are
Standing there
Loving me
Whether or not you should
So somewhere in my youth or childhood
I must have done something good
Nothing comes from nothing
Nothing ever could
So somewhere in my youth or childhood
I must have done something good

Samba For Stephanie
03:37
|

Eye's shine bright
Anticipating a romantic night
The mood's intoxicating
Time to go
And then who knows?
Dear Stephanie...
He is late
And maybe you were wrong
It's not a date
This isn't like a song
You feel a fool
Was he that cruel?
Oh Stephanie don't wait.
You hoped to rhapsodise
A sweet duet
Now go and dry your eyes
Leave him and forget
The night is young
The world is yours to take
So have some fun
The city's wide awake
Dear Stephanie
Go and be free
There's more to see.... Tonight!

Chicks and ducks and geese better scurry
When I take you out in the surrey,
When I take you out in the surrey with the fringe on top!
Watch that fringe and see how it flutters
When I drive them high steppin' strutters.
Nosey pokes'll peek thru' their shutters and their eyes will pop!
The wheels are yeller, the upholstery's brown,
The dashboard's genuine leather,
With isinglass curtains y' can roll right down,
In case there's a change in the weather.
Two bright sidelight's winkin' and blinkin',
Ain't no finer rig I'm a-thinkin'
You can keep your rig if you're thinkin' 'at I'd keep to swap
Fer that shiny, little surrey with the fringe on the top!
Don't you wishty'd go on forever?
Don't you wishty'd go on forever?
Don't you wishty'd go on forever and you'd never stop
In that shiny, little surrey with the fringe on the top!

More Than You Know
05:03
|

Whether you are here or yonder
Whether you are false or true
Whether you remain or wander
I'm growing fonder of you
Even though your friends forsake you
Even though you don't succeed
Wouldn't I be glad to take you
Give you the break you need
More than you know, more than you know
Man of my heart I love you so
Lately I find you're on my mind
More than you know
Whether you're right, whether you're wrong
Man of my heart I'll string along
You need me so
More than you'll ever know
Loving you the way that I do
There's nothing I can do about it
Loving may be all you can give
But honey I can't live without it
Oh, how I'd cry, oh, how I'd sigh
If you got tired and said "Goodbye"
More than I'd show
More than you'd ever know

I Hear Music
02:35

I hear music, mighty fine music
The murmur of a morning breeze up there
The rattle of the milkman on the stair
Sure that's music, mighty fine music
The singing of a sparrow in the sky
The perking of the coffee right nearby
That's my favorite melody
You, my angel, phoning me
I hear music, mighty fine music
And anytime I think my world is wrong
I get me out of bed and sing this song
That's my favorite melody
You, my angel, phoning me
I hear music, mighty fine music
And anytime I think my world is wrong
I get me out of bed and sing this song

If a custom tailored vet
Asks me out for something wet
When the vet begins to pet, I cry, "Hooray"
But I'm always true to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darlin', in my way
I've been asked to have a meal
By a big tycoon in steel
If the meal includes a deal, accept I may
But I'm always true to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darlin', in my way
There's an oil man known as Tex
Who is keen to give me checks
And his checks, I fear, means that Tex is here to stay
But I'm always true to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darlin', in my way
From Ohio, Mr. Thorn
Calls me up from night till morn
Mr. Thorn once cornered corn and that ain't hay
But I'm always true to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darlin', in my way
From Milwaukee, Mr. Fritz
Often dines me at the Ritz
Mr. Fritz invented Schlitz and Schlitz must pay
But I'm always true to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darlin', in my way
Mr. Harris Plutocrat
Wants to give my cheek a pat
If the Harris pat means a Paris hat, okay
But I'm always true to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darlin', in my way
I'm always true to you, darlin', in my way

The Thrill Is Gone
04:31
|

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 night is cold,
For love is old,
Love was grand when it was brand-new,
Birds were singin' and all them skies were blue,
Now it doesn't appeal to you..
The thrill is gone.
This is the end,
So why pretend
And let it linger on?
The thrill is gone.

You wander around on your own little cloud
When you don't see the why or the wherefore
You walk out on me when we both disagree
'Cause to reason is not what you care for
I've heard it all a million times before
Take off your coat, my love, and close the door
Don't sleep in the subway, darlin', don't stand in the pouring rain
Don't sleep in the subway, darlin', the night is long
Forget your foolish pride, nothing's wrong
Now you're beside me again
You try to be smart, then you take it to heart
'Cause it hurts when your ego is deflated
You don't realize that it's all compromise
And the problems are so overrated
Goodbye means nothing when it's all for show
So why pretend you've somewhere else to go
Don't sleep in the subway, darlin', don't stand in the pouring rain
Don't sleep in the subway, darlin', the night is long
Forget your foolish pride, nothing's wrong
Now you're beside me again
Don't sleep in the subway, darlin', don't stand in the pouring rain
Don't sleep in the subway, darlin', the night is long
Forget your foolish pride, nothing's wrong
Now you're beside me again
Don't sleep in the subway, darlin', don't stand in the pouring rain
Don't sleep
