(Jimmy Van Heusen, Mack David)
It wasn't my intention to eavesdrop, But there a guy sat, two stools away, And you could tell the bartender knew him And that he'd been there some other day. And while I sipped my libation, I overheard his conversation... "Re---member How I'd walk in, What excitement there would be? Never less than twenty people, I had lots of friends, you see. "I gave the party, I was the host. Everyone loved me, I was the most. "Champagne and plenty of it, Real imported caviar, And the hat check girl got fifty Just for lighting my cigar. "I kept 'em laughin', jokes by the yard. Everyone loved me, I was a card. "And I had a girl, A beautiful girl, Her whole world, I think, consisted of mink And diamonds and pearls. "Because she was mine, I'd glitter and shine, And life was a ball, and wasn't it all So cozy 'n fine? "But nothing lasts forever, And the deepest well runs dry. Just 'cause I've stopped rolling sevens Doesn't mean I have to cry. "I'll take that nightcap, One more won't show. And incidentally...maybe you know... Where, oh, where, oh, where Did everyone go?" "Where, oh, where, oh, where Did everyone go?" |

(Irving Berlin)
Say it isn't so... Say it isn't so. Everyone is saying you don't love me, Say it isn't so. Everywhere I go, Everyone I know Whispers that you're growing tired of me, Say it isn't so. People say that you Found somebody new, And it won't be long before you leave me, Say it isn't true. Say that everything is still okay, That's all I want to know. And what they're saying, Say it isn't so. People say passing by Say he's younger than I And it won't be long before you leave me, Tell me it's a lie. Say that everything is still okay, That's all I want to know. And what they're saying, Say it isn't so. |

(Johnny Burke)
Better face the facts, ol' buddy, And be prepared to take the blow. You don't have to sit and study, It's something anyone should know. Shake hands... get your hat... And go. You can praise her eyes, And adore her hair. But if love ain't there, It ain't there. And you can walk her home In the warm spring air, But if love ain't there, It ain't there. And you can look With a longing in your look, And try every method in the book And worship the smile that kind of Took you unaware. And you can weep and sigh, You can say, "Unfair". You can almost die of despair. But if love ain't there, It ain't there. |

(Van Heusen, Cahn, Fuller)
What good is a dream, A plan or a scheme, The rainbow that you pursue? It's everything... and it's nothing Without someone to tell it to. How eager you are To get to that star, But after the journey's through, You're only a lonely dreamer Without someone to tell it to. There'll be blue days, Hard to get through days, Days when you'll just want to die. Soon you're older, And the world's colder, When there's no shoulder to cry on. Castles in air Are empty and bare With no one to share the view. The moonlight is merely moonlight, There's no magic in "I love you" Without someone Someone to tell it to. ~interlude~ The moonlight is merely moonlight, There's no magic in "I love you" Without someone Someone to tell it to. |

Ever since our breakup Make believe is all I do I'm laughing on the outside Crying on the inside 'cause I'm still in love I am still in love with you |

(Joe Bailey)
No-o-o, I don't want her, So I'll forget her. Forget the love she gave me, Somehow. I've learned my lesson, Don't have to tell me. 'Cause I'm gonna start forgettin', Yes, I'm gonna start forgettin' Right now. Go on, take my share, 'Cause I don't want her. And now, she's gone, good riddance, Goodbye. But what my friends don't know Is that I love her so. And in my lonely room all day, I cry. Go-o on and take her, 'Cause I don't want her. I know I'll find another, Find another Somewhere. No, I don't want her, She's not my kind now. And if she's got somebody else, Oh, really got somebody else, I don't care. To think that my love Could say "Goodbye, love", And leave me here, as low as the ground, But no one knows but me What she means to me, And when I'm by myself, All day I sigh. 'Cause without her... I could lay me down And die. |

Time and the river
Will bring my love to me If I must, I'll wait forever By the river that took her to the sea Here by the river We loved, we laughed, we cried But with time, my love, my darling Left my arms and was gone with the tide How long I've been lonely Star of love, shine bright I need her oh, lead her To my arms tonight Time and the river How swiftly they go by But my heart will beat for no other Till time stands still and the river runs dry Time and the river How swiftly they go by But my heart will beat for no other Till time stands still and the river runs dry |

I must be dreaming
I must be dreaming I must be dreaming I must be because You say you love me You say you want me You say you need me And I can't believe that Someone as wonderful as you Could change my luck And make my dreams come true I must be dreaming But if I'm dreaming I'll go on dreaming The rest of my life Dreaming of you I must be dreaming But if I'm dreaming I'll go on dreaming The rest of my life Dreaming of you |
