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 |

There's a saying old says that love is blind Still we're often told, "Seek and ye shall find" So I'm going to seek a certain lad I've had in mind Looking everywhere, haven't found him yet He's the big affair I cannot forget Only man I ever think of with regret I'd like to add his initial to my monogram Tell me, where is the shepherd for this lost lamb? There's a somebody I'm longing to see I hope that he turns out to be Someone who'll watch over me I'm a little lamb who's lost in the wood I know I could always be good Someone who'll watch over me Although he may not be the man some girls think of as handsome To my heart he carries the key Won't you tell him please to put on some speed Follow my lead, oh, how I need Someone to watch over me |

A cigarette that bears a lipstick's traces
An airline ticket to romantic places And still my heart has wings These foolish things remind me of you A tinkling piano in the next apartment Those stumbling words that told you what my heart meant A fairground's painted swings These foolish things remind me of you You came, you saw, you conquered me When you did that to me I knew somehow this had to be The winds of March that make my heart a dancer A telephone that rings but who's to answer? Oh, how the ghost of you clings These foolish things remind me of you The smile of Turner and the scent of roses The waiters whistling as the last bar closes The song that Crosby sings These foolish things remind me of you NOTE: "Turner" likely refers to Lana Turner, a big movie star at the time of this recording. |

Why shouldn't I take a chance when romance passes by?
Why shouldn't I know of love? Why wait around when each age has a sage who has sung That upon this earth love is all that is really worth thinking of? It must be fun, lots of fun To be sure when day is done That the hour is coming when you'll be kissed And then you'll be kissed again All debutantes say it's good And every star out in far Hollywood Seems to give it a try So why shouldn't I? All debutantes say it's good And every star out in far Hollywood Seems to give it a try So why shouldn't I? ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By MILLER, NED/CONN, CHESTER <i>Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing, Warner/Chappell Music, Inc.</i> |

I don't know why I love you like I do
I don't why, but I do I don't know why you thrill me like you do I don't know why, but you do You never seem to want my romancing The only time you hold me is when we're dancing I don't know why I love you like I do I don't know why, but I do You never seem to want my romancing The only time you hold me is when we're dancing I don't know why I love you like I do I don't know why, but I do |

INTRO:
In the hustle of the day, we're all inclined to miss Little things that mean so much A word, a smile, and a kiss When a woman loves a man, he's a hero in her eyes And a hero he can always be if he'll just realize She may be weary, women do get weary Wearing the same shabby dress And when she's weary, try a little tenderness She may be waiting, just anticipating Things she may never possess While she's without them, try a little tenderness It's not just sentimental, she has her grief and her care But a word that's soft and gentle makes it easier to bear You won't regret it, women don't forget it Love is their whole happiness And it's all so easy, try a little tenderness |

I need your love so badly, I love you, oh, so madly
But I don't stand a ghost of a chance with you! I thought at last I'd found you, but other lovers surround you And "I don't stand a ghost of a chance with you!" If you'd surrender just for a tender kiss or two You might discover, that I'm the lover meant for you And I'd be true, but what's the good of scheming I know I must be dreaming |

And when she holds my hand, mmmm, mmmm
And I will understand, mmmm, mmmm. One kiss afire with one desire, a heavenly kiss could I resist? And then I turn the light, mmmm, mmmm. And then she hold me tight, mmmm, mmmm. One kiss one fond caress will lead the way to happiness She takes me to paradise. |

It was Montmartre
It was midnight Come to think of it It was spring There was music I was listening Then in the room somewhere someone began to sing This serenade made for remembering A small cafe, Mam'selle Our rendezvous, Mam'selle The violins were warm and sweet And so were you, Mam'selle And as the night danced by A kiss became a sigh Your lovely eyes seemed to sparkle Just like wine does No heart ever yearned the way mine does for you And yet I know too well Some day you'll say goodbye Then violins will cry And so will I, Mam'selle A small cafe, Mam'selle Our rendezvous, Mam'selle The violins were warm and sweet And so were you, Mam'selle And as the night danced by A kiss became a sigh Your lovely eyes seemed to sparkle Just like wine does No heart ever yearned the way mine does for you And yet I know too well Some day you'll say goodbye Then violins will cry And so will I, Mam'selle |

Last night I started out happy
Last night my heart was so gay Last night I found myself dancing In my favorite cabaret You were completely forgotten Just an affair of the past Then suddenly something happened to me And I found my heart beating, oh, so fast I saw you last night and got that old feeling When you came in sight I got that old feeling The moment that you danced by I felt a thrill And when you caught my eye my heart stood still Once again I seemed to feel that old yearning And I knew the spark of love was still burning There'll be no new romance for me, it's foolish to start For that old feeling, is still in my heart I saw you last night and got that old feeling When you came in sight I got that old feeling The moment that you danced by I felt a thrill And when you caught my eye my heart stood still Once again I seemed to feel that old yearning And I knew the spark of love was still burning There'll be no new romance for me, it's foolish to start For that old feeling, is still in my heart |

I could show the world how to smile
I could be glad all of the while I could change the grey skies to blues If I had you I could leave the old days behind Leave all my pals, I'd never mind I could start my life all a new If I had you I could climb the snow capped mountains Sail the mighty ocean wide I could cross the burning desert If I had you by my side I could be a king, dear, uncrowned Humble or poor, rich or renowned There is nothing I couldn't do If I had you I could show the world how to smile I could be glad all of the while I could change the grey skies to blues If I had you I could leave the old days behind Leave all my pals, I'd never mind I could start my life all a new If I had you I could climb the snow capped mountains Sail the mighty ocean wide I could cross the burning desert If I had you by my side I could be a king, dear, uncrowned Humble or poor, rich or renowned There is nothing I couldn't do |

It's not the pale moon
that excites me That thrills and delights me, oh no It's just the nearness of you It isn't your sweet conversation That brings this sensation, oh no It's just the nearness of you When you're in my arms and I feel you so close to me All my wildest dreams come true I need no soft lights to enchant me If you'll only grant me the right To hold you ever so tight And to feel in the night the nearness of you |

Once there was a thing called spring,
When the world was writing verses like yours and mine. All the lads and girls would sing, When we sat at little tables and drank May wine. Now April, May, and June are sadly out of tune, life has stuck a pin in the balloon. Spring is here! Why doesn't my heart go dancing? Spring is here! Why isn't the waltz entrancing? No desire, no ambition leads me, maybe it's because nobody needs me? Spring is here! Why doesn't the breeze delight me? Stars appear! Why doesn't the night invite me? Maybe it's because nobody loves me, spring is here, I hear! |

Fools rush in Where angels fear to tread And so I come to you my love My heart above my head Though I see The danger there If there's a chance for me Then I don't care Fools rush in Where wise men never go But wise men never fall in love So how are the |

When you awake, the day takes a bow at your door,
When you awake, the sun shines like never before, Cloud soaked with rain find it hard to explain to the earth below, They can't let it rain for then it would stain a heavenly show, you make it so, When you awake, you open the eyes of my heart, When you awake, my day really gets its great start, All the winds and the birds join the simple refrain of a rippling stream, My world becomes a midsummer night's dream, when you awake. |

I don't care if there's powder on my nose.
I don't care if my hairdo is in place. I've lost the very meaning of repose. I never put a mudpack onmy face. Oh, who'd have thought That I'd walk in the daze now? I never go to shows at night, But just to matinees now. I see the show And home I go. Once I laughed when I heard you saying That I'd be playing solitaire, Uneasy in my easy chair. It never entered my mind. Once you told me I was mistaken, That I'd awaken with the sun And order orange juice for one. It never entered my mind. You have what I lack myself And now I even have to scratch my back myself. Once you warned me that if you scorned me I'd sing the maiden's prayer again And wish that you where there again To get into my hair again. It never entered my mind |

I'll be lovin' you, always
With a love that's true, always When the things you've planned need a helpin' hand I will understand always, always Days may not be fair, always That's when I'll be there, always Not for just an hour, not for just a day Not for just a year, but always Days may not be fair, always That's when I'll be there, always Not for just an hour, not just a day Not for just one year but always Always Always All the time |
