Unforgettable
That's what you are, Unforgettable Tho' near or far. Like a song of love that clings to me, How the thought of you does things to me. Never before Has someone been more... Unforgettable In every way, And forever more That's how you'll stay. That's why, darling, it's incredible That someone so unforgettable Thinks that I am Unforgettable, too. [interlude] Unforgettable In every way, And forever more That's how you'll stay. That's why, darling, it's incredible That someone so unforgettable Thinks that I am Unforgettable, too. |

Answer me, oh, my love
Just what sin have I been guilty of? Tell me how I came to lose your love Please answer me, sweetheart You were mine yesterday I believed that love was here to stay Won't you tell me where I've gone astray? Please answer me, my love If you're happier without me I'll try not to care But if you still think about me Please listen to my prayer You must know I've been true Won't you say that we can start anew? In my sorrow now I turn to you Please answer me, my love (If you're happier without me) (I'll try not to care) But if you still think about me Please listen to my prayer You must know (you must know)I've been true (I've been true) Won't you say that we can start anew? In my sorrow now I turn to you Please answer me, my love Answer me, my love |

I was walking along, minding my business
When out of an orange-colored sky Flash! bam! alakazam! Wonderful you came by I was humming a tune, drinking in sunshine When out of that orange-colored view Wham! bam! alakazam! I got a look at you One look and i yelled 'timber' 'watch out for flying glass' 'cause the ceiling fell and the bottom fell out I went into a spin and i started to shout, 'i've been hit, this is it, this is it!' I was walking along minding my business When love came and hit me in the eye Flash! bam! alakazam! Out of an orange-colored sky. |

A blossom fell from off a tree
It settled softly on the lips you turned to me The gypsies say and i know why 'a falling blossom only touches lips that lie' A blossom fell and very soon I saw you kissing someone new beneath the moon I thought you loved me, you said you loved me We planned together to dream forever The dream has ended, for true love died The night a blossom fell and touched two lips that lied <instrumental interlude> A blossom fell and very soon I saw you kissing someone new beneath the moon I thought you loved me, you said you loved me We planned together to dream forever The dream has ended, for true love died The night a blossom fell and touched two lips that lied |

-Artist: Nat King Cole
-peak Billboard position # 23 in 1955 -Words and Music by Hal Hester and Barry Parker If I find peace of mind in the sand and the sea There's a hope in my heart that you'll soon be with me There's a prayer that I share with the sand and the sea And it cries "Come to me, come to me." As my eyes search the skies from the edge of the shore You are here in my arms for a moment or more Then a tear rushes down to the sand and the sea And it cries "Come to me, come to me." But as long as there's sand, as long as there's sea As long as there's time I'll wait hopefully As long as there's heaven up above Let the sand and the sea bring my love to me But as long as there's sand, as long as there's sea As long as there's time I'll wait hopefully As long as there's heaven up above Let the sand and the sea bring my love to me |
