They say that falling in love is wonderful
It's wonderful, so they say And with the moon up above It's wonderful, it's wonderful, so they tell me! I can't recall who said it, I know I never read it I only know they tell me that love is grand, and The thing that's known as romance is wonderful Wonderful, in every way, so they say! Words & Music by Irving Berlin |

Surrender, why don't you surrender?
How long can your lips live without a kiss? Surrender, I beg you surrender, How long can your heart resist? I'll bring you a love you can cling to, A love that won't be untrue . . . So please be tender, And darling surrender, And love me as I love you. ( repeat second verse ) Words and Music by Bennie Benjamin and George Weiss , 1946 |

Sonata, my sonata
I hear your haunting theme and I begin to dream! You linger, my sonata in every reverie you bring your love to me! Please, play on, make my dream love stay when you're gone she fades away! Sonata, when I find her, each tender note you play will be my serenade! Please, play on, make my dream love stay when you're gone she fades away! Sonata, when I find her, each tender note you play will be my serenade! . . . my sonata! |

If I loved you
Time and again I would try to say All I'd want you to know! If I loved you Words wouldn't come in an easy way 'Round in circles I'd go! Longing to tell you But afraid an' shy I'd let my golden chances pass me by! Soon you'd leave me Off you would go in the mist of day Never, never to know How I love you If I loved you! Music by Richard Rodgers with lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II 1945 |

I'm gonna love that girl
Like she's never been loved before, I'm gonna show that girl She's the fella that I adore. When she's in my arms again, Our dreams will all come true, The years between might never have been, We'll start our lives anew, I'm gonna kiss that girl Like she's never been kissed before, And tho' I miss that girl, She's the fella I'm waitin' for We'll never part again, She'll hold my heart again Forever and ever more I'm gonna love that girl Like she's never been loved before. |

( This is the story of Lili Marlene,
doo, doo, doo doo, doo! ) Would you like to hear the story, of a girl that many soldiers know? It's a tale of love in all it's glory, they tell when the lights are soft an' low! Underneath the lamp post by the brigades standing all alone every night you'll see her wait, she waits for a boy who marched away and though he's gone, she hears him say: "Oh promise you'll be true, fare thee well Lili Marlene, 'till I return to you, fare thee well Lili Marlene! " ( This is the story of Lili Marlene! ) With a kiss she gave her promise, to be constant as the stars above, every soldier knows she's kept her promise, and she has been faithful to her love! ( Underneath the lamp post by the brigade standing all alone every night you'll see her wait, for this is the place a vow was made and breezes sing her serenade . . . ) "Oh promise you'll be true, fare thee well Lili Marlene, 'till I return to you, fare thee well Lili Marlene, " ( This is the story of Lili Marlene! Though wee stems have an ending, no one knows just what the end will be but tonight when twilight is descending, if you'll come along, here's what you'll see . . . ) Underneath the lamp post by the brigade standing all alone every night you'll see her wait, and as they go marching to the fray the soldiers all salute and say: We'll tell him you've been true, fare thee well Lili Marlene, 'till he returns to you, fare thee well . . . |

Have I stayed away too long?
Have I stayed away too long? If I came home tonight, would you still be my darlin' ? Or, have I stayed away too long? The love light that shone so strong Sweet love light that shone so strong If I came home tonight, would that same light be shinin' ? Or, have I stayed away too long? I'm just outside of town I'll soon be at your door But maybe I'd be wrong to hurry there I'd best keep out of town, and worry you no more For, maybe someone else has made you care Have all of my dreams gone wrong? My beautiful dreams gone wrong? If I came home tonight, would you still be my darlin' ? Or, have I stayed away too long? I'd best keep out of town, and worry you no more For, maybe someone else has made you care Have all of my dreams gone wrong? My beautiful dreams gone wrong? If I came home tonight, would you still be my darlin' ? Or, have I stayed away too long? Stayed away too long? Words and Music by Frank Loesser, 1943 |

If they made me a king I'd be but a slave to you
If I had everything I'd still be a slave to you If I ruled the night, stars and moon so bright Still I'd turn for light to you If the world to me bowed yet humbly I'd flee to you If my friends were a crowd I'd turn in my need to you If I ruled the earth what would life be worth If I hadn't the right to you If I ruled the night, stars and moon so bright Still I'd turn for light to you If the world to me bowed yet humbly I'd flee to you If my friends were a crowd I'd turn in my need to you If I ruled the earth what would life be worth If I hadn't the right to you |

'Twas just a garden in the rain,
close to a little leafy lane a touch of colour 'neath skies of gray! The raindrops kissed the flower beds the blossoms raised their thirsty heads a perfumed thank you they seem to say! Surely here was charm beyond compare to view maybe it was just that I was there with you! 'Twas just a garden in the rain, but then the sun came out again and sent us happily on our way! Surely here was charm beyond compare to view but, maybe it was just that you were there dear, you were so lovely! 'Twas just a garden in the rain, but then the sun came out again and sent us happily on our way! Just a garden in the rain! |

More an' more, this heart of mine confesses
More an' more, I'm caught in your caresses Warmed by the breath of your sighs Cooled by the blue of your eyes More an' more, I find it more than thrilling To share this dream that needed fulfilling More an' more, I'm less an' less unwilling To give up wanting more an' more of you! More an' more, I find it more than thrilling To share this dream that needed fulfilling More an' more, I'm less an' less unwilling To give up wanting more an' more of you! |

You came,
I was alone, I should have known, you were temptation! You smiled, luring me on, my heart was gone, and you were temptation! It would be thrilling if you were willing, and if it can never be, pity me, for you were born to be kissed, I cant resist, you are temptation, and I am yours! Here is my heart! Take it and say, that well never part! Im just a slave, only a slave, to you! Temptation, Im your slave! ~ from the MGM film "Going Hollywood" Music by Nacio Herb Brown, lyrics by Arthur Freed |

Blue skies, smilin' at me
Nothin' but blue skies do I see Blue birds singin' a song Nothin' but blue birds all day long! Never saw the sun shinin' so bright Never saw things goin' so right Noticin' the days hurryin' by When you're in love, my, my how they fly! Blue days, all of them gone Nothin' but blue skies from now on! Nothin' but blue skies from now on! Nothin' but blue birds all day long! Never saw the sun shinin' so bright Never saw things goin' so right Noticin' the days hurryin' by When you're in love, my, my how they fly! Blue days, all of them gone Nothin' but blue skies from now on! Nothin' but blue skies from now on! ~ Words and Music by Irving Berlin, 1927 |

I love you,
Hums an April breeze, I love you, Echo the hills! I love you, The golden dawn agrees, As once more she sees, Daffodils! Its spring again, And birds on the wing again, Start to sing again, The old melodies! I love you, Thats the Song of Songs, And it all belongs, To you and me I love you . . .

They were standing in a crowded station,
So unaware, Of all the people there! I didn't mean to hear their conversation, But anyone could tell, It was their last farewell! Good-bye Sue, All the best of luck to you! You've been my only gal, Whats more, my best pal! Please don't cry, Smile until the clouds roll by! Don't kiss me dear, just walk away, Or I could never ever say, Good-bye, good-bye Sue! ( Good-bye Sue ) My little Sue! ( All the best of luck to you! ) Good luck to you! ( Youve been my only gal, Whats more, my best pal! My best pal! ) Please don't cry, Smile until the clouds roll by! Don't kiss me dear, just walk away, Or I could never ever say, Good-bye, good-bye Sue!

All through the day, I dream about the night
I dream about the night here with you All through the day, I wish away the time Until the time when I'm here with you Down falls the sun, I run to meet you The evening mist melts away! Down smiles the moon, and soon your lips recall The kiss I dreamed of, all through the day! All through the day, I wish away the time Until the time when I'm here with you Down falls the sun, I run to meet you The evening mist melts away! And down smiles the moon, and soon your lips recall The kiss I dreamed of, all through the day! |

You Won't Be Satisfied ( Until You Break My Heart )
You won't be satisfied until you break my heart, You're never satisfied until the teardrops start! I tried to shower you with love and kisses, But all I ever get from you is, Naggin' and braggin' . . . My poor heart is saggin' . . . The way you toss my heard around's a cryin' shame, I'll bet you wouldn't like it if I did the same! You're only happy tearin' all my dreams apart, Oh you won't be satisfied until you break my heart! You won't be satisfied until you break my heart, You're never satisfied until the teardrops start! I tried to shower you with love and kisses, But all I ever get is, Naggin' and braggin' . . . My poor heart is saggin' . . . You won't be satisfied until you break my heart, You're never satisfied until the teardrops start! I tried to shower you with love and kisses, But all I ever get from you is, Naggin' and braggin' . . . My poor heart is saggin' . . . The way you toss my heard around's a cryin' shame, I'll bet you wouldn't like it if I did the same! You're only happy tearin' all my dreams apart . . . It doesn't seem fair ( those little white lies ) But you don't seem to care ( and now I realize ) You won't be satisfied, Until you've broken my heart! |

At the end of the rainbow there's happiness
and to find it how often I've tried but my life is a race, just a wild goose chase and my dreams have all been denied! Why have I always been a failure? What can the reason be? I wonder if the world's to blame? I wonder if it could be me? I'm always chasing rainbows watching clouds drifting by! My schemes are just like all of my dreams ending in the sky! Some fellows look and find the sunshine I always look and find the rain! Some fellows make a winning sometime I never even make a gain! Believe me . . . I'm always chasing rainbows waiting to find a little blue bird in vain! ( Rainbows seem to fade away! ) |

Till the end of time,
long as stars are in the blue, long as theres a spring, a bird to sing, Ill go on loving you. Till the end of time, long as roses bloom in May, my love for you will grow deeper, with every passing day. Till the wells run dry, and each mountain disappears, Ill be there for you, to care for you, through laughter and through tears. So, take my heart in sweet surrender, and tenderly say that Im, the one you love and live for, till the end of time. Music and Lyrics by Ted Mossman and Buddy Kaye, Published 1945 Adapted from Chopin's Polonaise No. 6 in A Flat Major |

Love letters straight from your heart,
Keep us so near while apart. I'm not alone in the night, When I can have all the love you write . . . I memorize every line, I kiss the name that you sign. And darling, then I read again right from the start, Love letters straight from your heart . . . < instrumental bridge > I kiss the name that you sign. And darling, then I read again right from the start, Love letters straight from your heart . . . |

Do you recall that night in June when first we met?
Do you remember love the words we spoke? Have you forgotten all the tender vows we made In the silent magical moonbeams light? Gone are the golden dreams With summer roses And all of our tender-est vows Were made but to be broken Song of songs Song of memory And broken melody of love and life Nevermore to me Can that melody Fill the heart With the joy once it knew Oh night of bliss, night of June and love Beneath the stars amid the roses Oh dream of delight that faded at dawn Oh song of songs Oh night of bliss When you were my whole world of love! When you were my whole world of love... Of love! |

Alone from night to night youll find me,
Too weak to break the chains that bind me, I need no shackles to remind me, Im just a prisoner of love! For one command I stand and wait now, From one whos master of my fate now, I cant escape for its too late now, Im just a prisoner of love! Whats the good of my caring, if someone is sharing those arms with me! Although she has another, I cant have another, for Im not free! Shes in my dreams awake or sleeping, Upon my knees to her Im creeping, My very life is in her keeping, Im just a prisoner of love . . . Whats the good of my caring, if someone is sharing those arms with me! Although she has another, I cant have another, for Im not free! Shes in my dreams awake or sleeping, Upon my knees to her Im creeping, My very life is in her keeping, Im just a prisoner of love . . .

Long ago and far away
I dreamed a dream one day And now that dream is here beside me Long the skies were overcast But now the clouds have passed You're here at last! Chills run up and down my spine Aladdin's Lamp is mine The dream I dreamed was not denied me Just one look and then I knew That all I longed for Long ago was you. |
