Sarah Vaughan - Love Me Or Leave Me [compilation] (1999) by Sarah Vaughan (보컬) on maniadb.com

Brooks Bowman

East of the sun and west of the moon,
We'll build a dream house of love
Near to the sun in a day, near to the moon at night,
We'll live in a lovely way dear
Living our love in memory


Just you and I, forever and a day,
Love will not die, we'll keep it that way,
Up among the stars we'll find
A harmony of life, too lovely tune
East of the sun and west of the moon, dear,
East of the sun and west of the moon.
Just you and I we'll build a dream house so lovely

I don't know why
but i'm feeling so sad
I long to try
something i've never had

never had no kissing
Oh what i've been missing
Lover man oh where can you be

The night is cold
and i'm so all alone
I'd give my soul
just to call you my own

got the moon above me
but no one to love me
lover man oh where can you be

I've heard it said
that the thrill of romance
can be like a heavenly dream.
I go to bed
with the prayer that you'll make love to me
sad as it seems

One day we'll meet
and you'll dry all my tears
and whisper sweeet
little things in my ears.

A huggin' and a kissin'
lord what i've been missin'
lover man oh where can you be.

I'd rather have a memory than a dream,
For then I'd learn what heaven's all about.
There'd be an angel in my arms, you fit right in the seat,
And then my heart could just keep singing out!

I'd rather have your kisses than a smile,
For then there'd be the magic of romance.
The thrill of being all your own, yes even for a while,
Is something I'd be brave enough to chance!

For dreams are just imagination,
While memories are as real as you,
And I've enough imagination
To wish that all my dreams come true!

I'd rather have you near me than apart,
For then you'd know exactly what I mean,
But when I'm far away from here and long for you, sweetheart,
I'd rather have a memory than a dream!

I'd rather have a memory than a dream!

You're mean to me
Why must you be mean to me?
Gee, honey, it seems to me
You love to see me cryin'
I don't know why
I stay home each night
When you say you phone
You don't and I'm left alone.

Sing the blues and sighin'
You treat me coldly each day in the year
You always scold me
Whenever somebody is near, dear
I must be great fun to be mean to me
You shouldn't, for can't you see
What you mean to me

You go to my head and you linger like a haunting refrain
And I find you spinning 'round in my brain
Like the bubbles in a glass of champagne

You go to my head like a sip of sparkling Burgundy brew
And I find the very mention of you
Like the kicker in a julep or two

The thrill of the thought that you might give a thought to my plea
Casts a spell over me
Still I say to myself "Get a hold of yourself"
"Can't you see that it never can be?"

You go to my head with a smile that makes my temperature rise
Like a summer with a thousand Julys
You intoxicate my soul with your eyes

Though I'm certain that this heart of mine
Hasn't a ghost of a chance in this crazy romance
You go to my head
You go to my head

I'm as restless as a willow in a windstorm,
I'm as jumpy as a puppet on a string.
I'd say that I had spring fever,
But I know it isn't spring.

I'm starry-eyed and vaguely discontented
Like a nightingale without a song to sing.
Oh, why should I have spring fever
When it isn't even spring?

I keep wishing I were somewhere else,
Walking down a strange new street.
Hearing words that I have never heard
From a man I've yet to meet.

I'm as busy as a spider spinning daydreams,
I'm as giddy as a baby on a swing.
I haven't seen a crocus or a rosebud
Or a robin on the wing.

But I feel so gay,
In a melancholy way,
That it might as well be spring.

And that's why I feel this way,
And yet I know it's not spring today,
But it might as well be spring.

All too soon
We had to part
The moment you had touched my heart
And with you went my dream

All too soon
All too sweet
Was our affair
And you put all the sweetness there

What a shame that it's gone
All too soon
I knew the strange delights
That only you in love could bring

And as I reached the heights
The bottom fell from everything
You should know as well as I
Our love deserves another try

For we whispered goodbye
All too soon
Too soon

Life is such a great adventure
Learn to live it as you go
No one in the world can censure
What we do here below

Don't save your kisses, just pass them around
You'll find my reason is logic'lly sound
Who's going to know that you passed them around
A hundred years from today!
Why crave a penthouse that's fit for a queen
You're nearer Heaven on Mother Earth's green
If you had millions what would they all mean
A hundred years from today
So laugh and sing, make love the thing
Be happy while you may
There's always one, beneath the sun
Who's bound to make you feel that way
The moon is shining, and that's a good sign
Cling to me closer and say you'll be mine
Remember, darling, we won't see it shine
A hundred years from today
A hundred years from today

Don't save your kisses, just pass them around
You'll find my reason is logic'lly sound
Who's going to know that you passed them around
A hundred years from today!
Why crave a penthouse that's fit for a queen
You're nearer heaven on Mother Earth's green
If you had millions what would they all mean
A hundred years from today
So laugh and sing, make love the thing
Be happy while you may
There's always one, beneath the sun
Who's bound to make you feel that way
The moon is shining, and that's a good sign
Cling to me closer and say you'll be mine
Remember, darling, we won't see it shine
A hundred years from today

If you could see me now, you'd know how blue I've been
One look is all you'd need to see the mood I'm in.
Perhaps then you'd realize I'm still in love with you.
If you could see me now, you'd find me being brave
And trying awfully hard to make my tears behave
But that's quite impossible, I'm still in love with you.

You'll happen my way on some mem'rable day
And the month will be May for a while.
I'll try to smile but can I play the part
Without my heart behind the smile?

The way I feel for you I never could disguise
The look of love is written plainly in my eyes.
I think you'd be mine again if you could see me now.

I can make you love me,
If you let me you'll never resist!
I can make you happy
That you bet me the heaven we've missed.

Depp in your eyes I can see skies
No-one has dared explore,
You'll find that I'm the one you've waited for,
Do you know?

The lovely kind of heaven, the heaven we've missed,
You could be the inspiration for.
Darling, with me you'll get more out of a sigh;
I can make you love me, let me try!

Darling, with me you'll get more out of a sigh;
I can make you love me, let me try!

YOU'RE NOT THE KIND


You say you're falling in love with me
That's why I sit here and cry
For that is something that never can be
And here's the reason why

For you're not the kind of a boy (girl) for a girl (boy) like me
'Cause I'm just a song and a dance, you're a symphony
You say that you never would doubt me
Well, I'm tellin' you, you'd be much better off with out me
'Cause I'm just the kind of a girl (boy) who would never play fair
And you're just the kind of a boy (girl) who would always be square
It's so hard to let you go but it's only because I know
That you're not the kind of a boy (girl) for a girl (boy) like me

For you're not the kind of a boy (girl) for a girl (boy) like me
'Cause I'm just a song and a dance, you're a symphony
You say that you never would doubt me
Well, I'm tellin' you, you'd be much better off with out me
'Cause I'm just the kind of a girl (boy) who would never play fair
And you're just the kind of a boy (girl) who would always be square
It's so hard to let you go but it's only because I know
That you're not the kind of a boy (girl) for a girl (boy) like me

My kinda love, your kinda love
Keeps me believing, although you're deceiving
My kinda love, one way to paradise

My kinda lips, your kinda lips
When love comes stealing, encourage that feeling
My kinda love, one way to paradise

Although you're happy today
You may be gone tomorrow
Love comes but once; don't be a dunce
When you need it, steal it, beg or borrow

I'm fond of you, you're fond of me
Tell me you love me and hug me and squeeze me
My kinda love, one way to paradise

Although you're happy today
You may be gone tomorrow
Love comes but once; don't be a dunce
When you need it, beg or steal or borrow

I'm fond of you, you're fond of me
Tell me you love me and hug me and squeeze me
My kinda love, one way to paradise

You're deep just like a chasm
You've no, enthusiasm
You're tired and uninspired
You're blase

Your day is one of leisure
In which you search for pleasure
You're bored when you're adored
You're blase

While reaching for the moon
And the stars up in the sky
The simple things of normal life
Are slowly passing by

You sleep, the sun is shining
You wake, its time for dining
There's nothing new for you to do
You're blase

While reaching for the moon
And the stars up in the sky
The simple things of normal life
Are slowly passing by

You sleep, the sun is shining
You wake, its time for dining
There's nothing new for you to do
You're blase

Blase

Just picture a penthouse way up in the sky
With hinges on chimneys for stars to go by
A sweet slice of Heaven for just you and I
When we're alone

From all of society, we'll stay aloof
And live in propriety there on the roof
Two heavenly hermits we will be in truth
When we're alone

We'll see life's mad pattern
As we view old Manhattan
Then we can thank our lucky stars
That we're living as we are

In our little penthouse, we'll always contrive
To keep love and romance forever alive
In view of the Hudson just over the drive
When we're alone

We can thank our lucky stars
That we're living as we are

In our little penthouse, we'll always contrive
To keep love and romance forever alive
In view of the Hudson just over the drive
When we're alone

Don't worry 'bout me
I'll get along
Forget about me
Just be happy my love

Let's say that our little show is over
And so the story ends
Why not call it a day the sensible way
And still be friends

Look out for yourself
That should be the rule
Give your heart and your love
To whomever you love
Darlin' don't be a fool

Why do we cling to this old faded thing
That used to be
So if you can forget
Then don't worry 'bout me

Why should we cling to some old faded thing
That used to be
So if you can forget
Then you don't worry 'bout me

Time after time
I tell myself that I'm
So lucky to be loving you

So lucky to be
The one you run to see
In the evening
When the day is through

I only know what I know
The passing years will show
You've kept my love so young
So new

And time after time
You'll hear me say that I'm
So lucky to be loving you

I only know what I know
The passing years will show
You've kept my love so young
So new

And time after time
You'll hear me say that I'm
So lucky to be loving you

Oh, its a long, long while
from May to December,
But the days grow short
when you reach September.

When the autumn weather
turns the leaves to flame
one hasn't got time
for the waiting game.

Oh the days dwindle down
to a precious few
September
November

And these few precious days
I'll spend with you.
These precious days
I'll spend with you.

Walter Gross / Jack Lawrence

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

our father
which art in heaven
hallowed be thy name
thy kingdom come
thy will be done
in earth as it is in heaven

give us this day our daily bread
and forgive us our debt
as we forgive our debtors
and lead us not into temptation
but deliver us from evil
for thy is the kingdom
and the power and the glory forever
amen

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
(Sometimes)
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child

A long ways from home
A long ways from home
Do believe us?
A long ways from home
A long ways from home

Yes, sometimes I feel like a motherless child
(Why?)
Why? 'Cause nothin' ever happens
(Nothin')

Well, nothin' good
(So what's good?)
You know to have a ball, man
(You sick?)
No

(Hungry?)
No, man
I just had myself a whole mess of black-eyed peas and rice
(Long way, long way)

(See what I mean?)
I did; I am a long ways from home
But things could be worse, sure could

Love me or leave me or let me be lonely
You won't believe me and I love you only
I'd rather be lonely
Than happy with somebody else

You might find the night time
The right time for kissin'
But night time is my time for just reminiscin'
Regrettin' instead of forgettin' with somebody else

There'll be no one unless
That someone is you
I intend to be independently blue

I want your love, but I don't want to borrow
To have it today and you give back tomorrow
For my love is your love
There's no love for nobody else

There'll be no one unless
That someone is you
I intend to be independently blue

I want your love, but I don't want to borrow
To have it today and you give back tomorrow
For my love is your love
There's no love for nobody else
Nobody else, nobody else

Ever since the lucky night I found you
I've hung around you just like a fool
Falling head and heels in love like a kid out of school.

My poor heart is in an awful state now
But it's too late now to call a halt

So if I become a nuisance it's all your fault!

Don't blame me for falling in love with you
I'm under your spell but how can I help it!
Don't' blame me!

Can't you see when you do the things you do!
If I can't conceal the thrill that I'm feeling,
Don't blame; me.

Ican't help it if that doggoned moon above
Makes me need someone like you to love!

Blame your kiss as sweet as a kiss can be
And blame all your charms that melt in my arms
But don't blame me.

I like every single thing about you
Without a doubt you are like a dream
In my mind I find a picture of us as a team

Ever since the hour of our meeting
I've been repeating a silly phrase
Hoping that you'll understand me one of these days.

Don't blame me for falling in love with you
I'm under your spell but how can I help it!
Don't' blame me!

Can't you see when you do the things you do!
If I can't conceal the thrill that I'm feeling,
Don't blame; me.

Ican't help it if that doggoned moon above
Makes me need someone like you to love!

Blame your kiss as sweet as a kiss can be
And blame all your charms that melt in my arms
But don't blame me.

our father
which art in heaven
hallowed be thy name
thy kingdom come
thy will be done
in earth as it is in heaven

give us this day our daily bread
and forgive us our debt
as we forgive our debtors
and lead us not into temptation
but deliver us from evil
for thy is the kingdom
and the power and the glory forever
amen

Everything I have is yours
You are part of me
Everything I have is yours
My destiny

I would gladly give the sun to you
If the sun were only mine
I would gladly give this earth to you
And the stars that shine
Everything that I possess
I offer you

Let my dream of happiness
Come true
I'd be happy just to spend my life
Waiting at your beck and call
Everything I have is yours
My life
My all

Everything I have is yours
You are part of me
Everything I have is yours
My destiny

I would gladly give the sun to you
If the sun were only mine
I would gladly give the earth to you
And the stars that shine
Everything that I possess
I offer to you

Let my dream of happiness
Come through
I'd be happy just to spend my life
Waiting at your beck and call
Everything I have is yours
My life
My all
