On the day I was born,
Said my father, said he, I've an elegant legacy Waiting for ye. Tis a rhyme for your lips And a song for your heart, To sing whenever the world falls apart. Look, look, look to the rainbow. Follow it over the hill and stream. Look, look, look to the rainbow. Follow the fellow who follows a dream. Follow the fellow, follow the fellow, Follow the fellow who follows a dream. 'Twas a sumptuous gift bequeathed to a child. Oh, the lure of that song Kept her feet running wild. For you never grow old and you never stand still With a whippoorwill singing beyond the next hill. So, I bundled me heart and I roamed the world free. To the east with the lark Tow the west with the sea. And I searched all the world and I scanned all the skies. But I found it at last in my own true love's eyes. |

Our little dream castle with every dream gone,
Is lonely and silent, the shades are all drawn, And my heart is heavy as I gaze upon A cottage for sale The lawn we were proud of is waving in hay, Our beautifil garden has withered away, Where you planted roses,the weeds seem to say, A cottage for sale. From every single window, I see your face, But when I reach a window, there's empty space. The key's in the mail box the same as before, But no one is waiting any more, The end of the story is told on the door. A cottage for sale. |

All of me
Why not take all of me Can't you see That I'm no good without you Take my arms I want to loose them Take my lips I'll never use them Your goodbye Left me with eyes that cry And I know that I Am no good without you You took the part That once was my heart So why not take all of me (Repeat both verses) Why not take all of me |

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 And give you the break you need More than you know, more than you know Girl 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 Girl of my heart, I'll string along I need you 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 cry If you got tired and said Goodbye More than I'd show More than you'll ever know More than you'll ever know |

I don't want a mountain of diamonds
And a valley of gold wouldn't do But if you want to make me happy Just make me a present of you I don't need a desert of rubies Or an ocean of pearls to swim through But if you wanna make me happy Just make me a present of you What good is a girl with a million? What good if the world calls you Queen? If you don't have someone to love you Then you really don't have anything So I'll take your arms for my palace And the sky for my room with a view I know that I'll make you happy, yes If you make me a present of you What good is a gal with a million? What good if the world calls you Queen? If you don't have a man to love you Then you really don't have a doggone thing So I'll take my arms for your palace And the sky for my room with a view I know we'll both be very happy If you'll box yourself up Tie it with a pretty ribbon And make me, Lord, make me a present of you |

-SMOKE GETS IN YOUR EYES-
They asked me how I knew my true love was true. I, of course, replied something here inside cannot be denied. They said some day you'll find all who love are blind. When your hearts are on fire, you must realize smoke gets in your eyes. So I chaffed them and I gayly laughed to think they could doubt my love. Yet today, my love has flown away. I am without my love. Now laughing friends deride tears I cannot hide. So I smile and say when a lovely flame dies smoke gets in your eyes. |

Oh! they say some people long ago
Were searching for a diff'rent tune, One that they could croon As only they can. They only had the rhythm so They started swaying to and fro. They didn't know just what they had And that is how the blues really began: They heard the breeze in the trees Singing weird melodies And they made that The start of the blues. And from a jail came the wail Of a down hearted frail, And they played that As part of the blues. From a whippoorwill out on a hill, They took a new note, Pushed it through a horn 'til it was born into a blue note. And then they nursed it, rehearsed it, And gave out the news That the southland Gave birth to the blues! |
