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?
If there will never ever be another you?

So in Love

Strange, dear
But true, dear
When I'm close to you, dear
The stars fill the sky
So in love with you am I
Even without you
My arms fold about you
You know, darling, why
So in love with you am I
In love with the night mysterious
The night when you first were there
In love with my joy, delirious
When I knew that you could care
So taunt me
And tease me
Just love me, don’t leave me
I'm yours 'til I die
So in love
So in love
So in love with you my love
Am I

Baubles, Bangles & Beads
04:05

Baubles, bangles,
Hear how they jing, jing-a-ling-a,
Baubles, bangles,
Bright, shiny beads.
Sparkles, spangles,
My heart will sing, sing-a-ling-a,
Wearing baubles, bangles and beads.
I'll glitter and gleam so,
Make somebody dream so,
That someday he may buy me,
A ring, ring-a ling-a,
I've heard that's where it leads,
Wearing baubles and bangles and beads

Devil May Care
04:14
|

No cares for me
I'm happy as I can be
I've learned to love and to live
Devil may care
No cares and woes
Whatever comes later goes
That's how I'll take and I'll give
Devil may care
When the day is through, I suffer no regrets
I know that he who frets loses the night
For only a fool thinks he can hold back the dawn
He who is wise never tries to revise what's past and gone
Live love today, let come tomorrow what may
Don't even stop for a sigh, it doesn't help if you cry
That's how I live and I'll die
Devil may care

Après Un Rêve
07:36

In a sleep that charmed your image
Dans un sommeil que charmait ton image
I dreamed of happiness, a passionate mirage;
Je rêvais le bonheur, ardent mirage;
Your eyes were more tender, your voice pure and sonorous
Tes yeux étaient plus doux, ta voix pure et sonore
You radiated like a sky lit up by the dawn;
Tu rayonnais comme un ciel éclairé par l'aurore;
You called me, and I left the earth
Tu m'appelais, et je quittais la terre
To flee with you towards the light;
Pour m'enfuir avec toi vers la lumière;
The heavens opened their clouds for us;
Les cieux pour nous entr'ouvraient leurs nues;
Unknown splendours, gleaming divine light meets us...
Splendeurs inconnues, lueurs divines entrevues...
Alas, alas, sad awakening of dreams!
Hélas, hélas, triste réveil des songes!
I call you, oh night, give me back your lies;
Je t'apelle, ô nuit, rends-moi tes mensonges;
Come back, come back radiant
Reviens, reviens radieuse
Come back, oh mysterious night
Reviens, ô nuit mystérieuse

I don't want to set the world on fire
I just want to start a flame in your heart
In my heart I have but one desire
And that one is you, no other will do
I've lost all ambition for worldly acclaim
I just want to be the one you love
And with your admission that you feel the same
I'll have reached the goal I'm dreaming of, believe me
I don't want to set the world on fire
I just want to start a flame in your heart

I have often walked down this street before;
But the pavement always stayed beneath my feet before.
All at once am I several stories high.
Knowing I'm on the street where you live.
Are there lilac trees in the heart of town?
Can you hear a lark in any other part of town?
Does enchantment pour out of every door?
No, it's just on the street where you live!
And oh! The towering feeling
Just to know somehow you are near.
The overpowering feeling
That any second you may suddenly appear!
People stop and stare. They don't bother me.
For there's nowhere else on earth that I would rather be.
Let the time go by, I won't care if I
Can be here on the street where you live.

Born to Be Blue
04:24
|
|||
|
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 should 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 curtain 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
and that alone is more
than I was created for
'cause I was born to be blue

Both Sides Now
05:07
|

|
Rows and flows of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons everywhere
Looked at clouds that way
But now they only block the sun
They rain and snow on everyone
So many things I would have done
But clouds got in my way
I've looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down and still somehow
It's cloud's illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all
Moons and Junes and ferries wheels
The dizzy dancing way that you feel
As every fairy tale comes real
I've looked at love that way
But now it's just another show
You leave 'em laughing when you go
And if you care, don't let them know
Don't give yourself away
I've looked at love from both sides now
From give and take and still somehow
It's love's illusions I recall
I really don't know love at all
Tears and fears and feeling proud
To say, "I love you" right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
I've looked at life that way
But now old friends they're acting strange
They shake their heads, they say I've changed
Well something's lost, but something's gained
In living every day
I've looked at life from both sides now
From win and lose and still somehow
It's life's illusions I recall
I really don't know life at all
It's life's illusions that I recall
I really don't know life
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh….
Ooh, ooh…

You'd be so nice to come home to
You'd be so nice by the fire
While the breeze on high, sang a lullaby
You'd be all that I could desire
Under stars chilled by the winter
Under an August moon burning above
You'd be so nice, you'd be paradise
To come home to and love
