Tony Bennett - At Carnegie Hall: The Complete Concert [live] (1962) by Tony Bennett (보컬) on maniadb.com

Just in time, I found you just in time
Before you came, my time was runnin' low
I was lost, the losin' dice were tossed
My
s all were crossed, nowhere to go
Now you're here and now I know just where I'm goin'
No more doubt or fear, I found my way
For love came just in time
You found me just in time
And changed my lonely life that lovely dayMm, I was lost, the losin' dice were tossed
My
s all were crossed, nowhere to go
Now you're here and now I know just where I'm goin'
No more doubt or fear, I found my way
For love came just in time
You found me just in time
And changed my lonely life that lovely day

Take my hand
I'm a stranger in paradise
All lost in a wonderland
A stranger in paradise
If I stand starry-eyed
That's a danger in paradise
For mortals who stand beside an angel like youI saw your face and I ascended
Out of the commonplace into the rare somewhere
In space I hang suspended
Until I know there's a chance that you careWon't you answer this fervent prayer
Of a stranger in paradise
Don't send me in dark despair
From all that I hunger forBut open your angel's arms
To this stranger in paradise
And tell him that he need be
A stranger no more

Before Lord God made the sea and the land,
He held all the stars in the palm of his hand.
And they ran through his fingers like grains of sand,
And one little star fell alone.
Then the Lord God hunted through the wide night air
For the little dark star on the wind down there.
And he stated and promised he'd take special care
So it wouldn't get lost again.
Now a man don't mind if the stars grow dim
And the clouds blow over and darken him,
So long as the Lord God's watching over them,
Keeping track of how it all goes on.
But I've been walking all the night and the day,
Till my eyes get weary and my head turns gray.
And sometimes it seems maybe God's gone away,
And we're lost out here in the stars.
Little stars, big stars, blowing through the night,
And we're lost out here in the stars.
Little stars, big stars, blowing through the night,
And we're lost out here in the stars.

It's a lazy afternoon
And the beetle bugs are zooming
And the tulip trees are blooming
And there's not another human in view,
But us two
It's a lazy afternoon
And the farmer leaves his reaping
In the meadow cows are sleeping
And the speckled trout stop leaping up stream
As we dream
A fat pink cloud hangs over the hill
Unfolding like a rose
If you hold my hand and sit real still,
You can hear the grass as it grows
It's a hazy afternoon
And I know a place that's quiet, except for daisies running riot
And there's no one passing by it to see
Come spend this lazy afternoon with me

Often through the day as I work away
I resolved to get home early with roses for my girly
And kiss her hand
Her lips, her nose and say

Have I told you lately
You look so lovely
Each time I see you
My heart melts away

In the rush of little
Everyday things
Sometimes you don't say things
You mean to say

Have I mentioned lately
I'm glad you took me
Instead of hooking someone
With the million or two

When I think of all the girls
I could have been stuck with
I sure was in luck with
The one I drew

Have I told you lately
How much your husband loves you?

My height, just average
My weight, just average
And my I.Q. is like you'd estimate
Just average

But evidently
She does not agree
Consequently
If I seem at sea

It amazes me
It simply amazes me
What she sees in me
Dazzles me, dazes me

That I've learned to clip my wings
And soften my ways
These are ordinary things
Unworthy of praise

Yet she praises me
Just knowing I'd try for her
When so many would
If they could, die for her

I'm the one who's worldly wise
And nothing much fazes me
But to see me in her eyes
It just amazes me

I call her Firefly
Cause, oh, my
She radiates moon glow
Wants none of that noon glow
She starts to glitter
When the sun goes down

Bout eight p.m., it's mayhem
She switches those brights up
Lights up and gives me a call
Take me to the Fireflies ball

But when I get her there
Set her there
Do I get to pet her there
And grab me some glow

No, she's a gad about, mad about
Luring every lad about
While leaving me moaning low

Oh, Firefly, why can't I
Latch on for you no how
Oh, how I love you but gee
While you set the night on
Firefly, shine a little light on me

But when I get her there
Set her there
Do I get to pet her there
And grab me some glow

No, she's a gad about, mad about
Luring every lad about
While leaving me moaning low

Oh, Firefly, why can't I
Latch on for you no how
Oh, how I love you but gee
While you set the night on
Firefly, shine a little light on
Shine a little light on
Shine a little light on me
(In the mornin')

Apparently not charted by anyone but still a fine songOut of the tree of life I just picked me a plum
You came along and everything started to hum
Still it's a real good bet the best is yet to comeThe best is yet to come and, babe, won't it be fine?
You think you've seen the sun but you ain't seen it shineWait till the warm-up's underway
Wait till our lips have met
Wait till you see that sunshine day
You ain't seen nothin' yet!The best is yet to come and, babe, won't it be fine?
The best is yet to come, come the day you're mineCome the day you're mine, I'm gonna teach you to fly
We're gonna taste of the wine
We're gonna drain the cup dryWait till your charms are right for these arms to surround
You think you've flown before but you ain't left the groundWait till you're locked in my embrace
Wait till I draw you near
Wait till you see that sunshine place
Ain't nothin' like it here!The best is yet to come and, babe, won't it be fine
The best is yet to come, come the day you're mineSPOKEN: "Ho, ho"
Out of the tree of life I just picked me a plum
You came alongand everything started to hum

I know I go from rags to riches
If you would only you say you care
And though my pocket maybe empty
I'll be a millionaireMy clothes may still be torn and tattled
But in my heart I'd be a king
Your love is all that ever mattered
It's everything, so open your arms
And you open the door
To every treasure that I am hoping for
Hold me and kiss me and
Tell me you're mine ever moreMust I forever be a beggar
Whose golden dreams would not come true
Or will I go from rags to riches
My fate is up to you

Blue velvet wow woo
she wore blue velvet
Bluer than velvet was the night
Softer than satin was the light
From the stars she wore blue velvet
Bluer than velvet were her eyes
Warmer than may her tender sighs
Love was ours ours a love I held tightly
Feeling the rapture grow Like a flame burning brightly
But when she left gone was the glow of
Blue velvet but in my heart
There'll always be precious andWarm a memory through the years
And I still can see blue velvet
Through my tears she wore bluevelvet
But in my heart there'll always be
Precious and warm a memory
Through the years and I still can see
Blue velvet through my tears
Blue velvetwoo

Smile though your heart is aching
Smile even though it??쨈s breaking
When there are clouds in the sky, you??쨈ll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You??쨈ll see the sun come shining through for you

Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That??쨈s the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what??쨈s the use of crying?
You??쨈ll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile

That??쨈s the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what??쨈s the use of crying?
You??쨈ll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile

Brothers, sisters
Listen to what I say
Moanin' and groanin'
Won't drive those blues away
Lift up your voices in song
You know you've all done wrong

You sinners, drop everything
And let that harmony ring
Up to Heaven
And sing, you sinners

Just wave your arms all about
And let the Lord hear you shout
Pour the music right out
And sing, you sinners

Whenever there's music
The Devil kicks
He don't allow music
By the river Styx

You're wicked and you're depraved
And you've all misbehaved
If you wanna be saved
Well, sing, you sinners

Well, up until now
I've been asking you singers to sing
But if you can't sing, dance
C'mon band, swing

Swing, swing, swing
Swing, you sinners
Swing, swing, swing
Swing, you sinners

Whenever there's music
The Devil kicks
He don't allow music
By the river Styx

You're wicked and you're depraved
And you've all misbehaved
If you wanna be saved
If you wanna be saved
Well, sing, you sinners
