Did you ever get that feeling in the moonlight
That wonderful feeling that you want to be kissed? You're strolling through the park, the stars so bright above You'd love to love somebody but there's nobody there to love! Did you ever get that longing on a June night That wonderful longing you can never resist? Did you ever get that feeling in the moonlight That feeling that says you want to be kissed? Tell me honestly, did you ever get that feelin' in the moonlight Wonderful feeling that you wanna be kissed? You're strolling in the park, stars so bright above You'd love to love somebody but there's no one to love! Did you ever get that longing on a June night Wonderful longing you can't resist? Did you ever get that feelin' in the moonlight That feeling that says you wanna to be kissed? That certain feelin! Feelin' that says you wanna be kissed! They said that feeling! That feeling that says you wanna to be kissed? Words and Music by James Cavanaugh, Larry Stock and Ira Schuster, 1945 |

Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near Just like me they long to be close to you Why do stars fall down from the sky Every time you walk by Just like me they long to be close to you On the day that you were born The angels got together An decided to create a dream come true So they sprinkled mood dust in your hair of gold An starlight in your eyes of blue That is why all the boys in town Follow you all around Just like me they long to be close to you On the day that you were born The angels got together An decided to create a dream come true So they sprinkled mood dust in your hair of gold An starlight in your eyes of blue That is why all the boys in town Follow you all around Just like me they long to be close to you Why Close to you Why Close to you Why Close to you Just like me they long to be Close to you Close to you close to you |

A fella needs a girl, to sit by his side
At the end of a weary day To sit by his side and listen to him talk And agree with the things he'll say! A fella needs a girl, to hold in his arms When the rest of the world goes wrong To hold in his arms and know that she believes That her fellow is wise and strong! When things go right and his job's well done He wants to share the prize he's won If no one shares and no one cares Where's the fun of a job well done, or a prize you've won? A fella needs a home, his own kind of home But to make this dream come true A fella needs a girl, his own kind of girl My kind of girl is you! < instrumental break > A fella needs a girl, his own kind of girl My kind of girl is you. Music by Richard Rodgers with lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II, 1947 |

'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! |

I've got a yearning to caress you,
One thought keeps burning in my soul, A hungry yearning to possess you, It's far beyond control! I want your love for now, forever, I want you heart and soul! My life, I'd give to you, Anema e core . . . I only live for you, Anema e core . . . I have but one desire, And it's to love you, With all my heart, with all my soul, My whole life through! From stars I'll make your crown, And kneel before you, I pray you'll take my hand, For I adore you! Open up the doors leading to heaven, A heaven mine and yours, Anema e core . . . < Italian lyrics > |

Angry, please don't be angry,
'Cause I was only teasing you! I wouldn't even let you think of leavin' Don't you know I love you true! Just because I took a look at somebody else, That's no reason you should put poor me on the shelf! Angry, please don't be angry, 'Cause I was only teasing you! Don't believe a thing you hear, just wait 'till you see, Then you'll find no cause to show that you're jealous of me! Oh! Angry, please don't be angry, 'Cause I was only teasing you!

You must remember this, a kiss is still a kiss,

An' when two lovers woo, they still say "I love you," On that you can rely, no matter what the future brings, As time goes by . . . Moonlight an' love songs never out of date, Hearts full of passion, jealousy an' hate, Woman needs man and man must have his mate, That no one can deny . . . It's still the same old story, a fight for love an' glory, A case of do or die, the world will always welcome lovers, As time goes by . . . < instrumental verse three > It's still the same old story, a fight for love an' glory, A case of do or die, the world will always welcome lovers, As time goes by . . . |

And Aubrey was her name,
And not so very ordinary girl, or name . . . But who's to blame, For a love that wouldn't bloom, For the hearts that never played in tune ? Like a lovely melody, That everyone can sing, Take away the words that rhyme. It doesn't mean a thing . . . hmmmm And Aubrey was her name, We tripped the light, And danced together to the moon, But where was June ? No, it never came around, If it did, it never made a sound . . . Maybe I was absent, Or was listening too fast, Catching all the words, But then, the meaning going past . . . hmmmm Oh, how I miss the girl, And I'd go a thousand times around the world, Just to be, Closer to her, than to me. And Aubrey was her name, I never knew her, But I loved her just the same, I loved her name . . . Wish that I had found a way, And the reasons that would make her stay . . . I have learned to lead a life, Apart from all the rest, If I can't have the one I want. I'll go without the best . . . hmmmm Oh, how I miss the girl, And I'd go a million times around the world, Just to say, She had been mine for a day! Words and Music by David A. Gates |

And Aubrey was her name,
And not so very ordinary girl, or name . . . But who's to blame, For a love that wouldn't bloom, For the hearts that never played in tune ? Like a lovely melody, That everyone can sing, Take away the words that rhyme. It doesn't mean a thing . . . hmmmm And Aubrey was her name, We tripped the light, And danced together to the moon, But where was June ? No, it never came around, If it did, it never made a sound . . . Maybe I was absent, Or was listening too fast, Catching all the words, But then, the meaning going past . . . hmmmm Oh, how I miss the girl, And I'd go a thousand times around the world, Just to be, Closer to her, than to me. And Aubrey was her name, I never knew her, But I loved her just the same, I loved her name . . . Wish that I had found a way, And the reasons that would make her stay . . .

Bali Ha'i may call you,
Any night, any day, In your heart you'll hear it call you, "Come away, come away . . ." Bali Ha'i will whisper, On the wind of the sea, "Here am I your special island" "Come to me, come to me . . ." Your own special hopes, Your own special dreams, Bloom on the hillside, And shine in the streams . . . If you try you'll find me Where the sky meets the sea Here am I your special island Come to me, come to me . . . Bali Ha'i Bali Ha'i Bali Ha'i Someday you'll see me, Floating in the sunshine, My head's sticking out from a low flying cloud . . . You'll hear me call you, Singing through the sunshine Sweet and clear as can be . . . "Come to me, Bali Ha'i" "Come to me" "Come to me" Bali Ha'i . . . |

Because, you come to me,
with naught save love, and hold my hand and lift mine eyes above, a wider world of hope and joy I see, because you come to me! Because you speak to me in accent sweet, I find the roses waking 'round my feet, and I am led through tears and joy to thee, because you speak to me! Because God made thee mine, Ill cherish thee, through light and darkness through all time to be, and pray His love may make our love divine, because God made thee mine! |

When they begin the beguine,
It brings back the sound of music so tender, It brings back the night of tropical splendour, It brings back a memory evergreen! I'm with you once more under the stars, And down by the shore an orchestra's playin' Even the palms seems to be swayin' When they begin the beguine! To live it again is past all endeavour, Except when that tune clutches my heart, And there we are swearin' to love forever, And promising never, never to part! What moments divine, what raptures serene, 'Till clouds came along to disperse the joys we had tasted . . . Now, when I hear people curse the chance that was wasted, I know but too well what they mean! So, don't let them begin the beguine, Let the love that was once a fire remain an ember . . . Let it sleep like the dead desire I only remember, When they begin the beguine! Oh yes, let them begin the beguine, make them play! 'Till the stars that were there before return above you, 'Till you whisper to me once more, "Darling, I love you!" And we suddenly know, what heaven we're in, When they begin the beguine! When they begin . . . the beguine! ~ from the 1935 Stage musical "Jubilee" Words and Music by Cole Porter |

Lord don't she make me proud!
She never makes a scene By hangin' all over me in a crowd! 'Cause people love to talk, Lord don't they love to talk! But when they turn out the lights, I know she'll be leaving with me! When we get behind closed doors, Then she lets her hair hang down And she makes me glad that I'm a man . . . Oh no one knows what goes on behind closed doors! My baby makes me smile, Lord don't she make me smile! She's never far away Or too tired to say "I want you!" She's always a lady Just like a lady should be! But when they turn out the lights, She's still a baby with me! When we get behind closed doors, Then she lets her hair hang down And she makes me glad that I'm a man . . . Oh no one knows what goes on behind closed doors! Oh no one knows What goes on behind closed doors! ( Behind closed doors! Behind closed doors! ) Behind closed doors! |

The best of times is now
What's left of summer but a faded rose The best of times is now As for tomorrow, well, who knows Who knows, who knows So hold this moment fast, hold it fast And live and love as hard as you know how, you know how And make this moment last, moment last Because the best of times is now Is now, is now Now not some forgotten yesterday Now tomorrow is too far away So hold this moment fast And live and love as hard as you know how And make this moment last Because the best of times is now Is now, is now The best of times is now What's left of summer but a faded rose The best of times is now As for tomorrow, well, who knows Who knows, who knows Now (This is the moment we should take) Not some forgotten yesterday (Yesterday is just a faded memory) Now (Don't let this moment go to waste) Tomorrow is too far away (Too far, too far away) So hold this moment fast And live and love as hard as you know how And make this moment last Because the best of times is now Is now, is now The best of times is now What's left of summer but a faded rose The best of times is now As for tomorrow, well, who knows Who knows, who knows So hold this moment fast And live and love as hard as you know how And make this moment last Because the best of times is now Is now, is now, is now, is now |

In the waking spring,
Softly you would bring, Your eager dreams to my bed, All through the joys of summer, Love became the harvest, We would share . . . Beyond tomorrow, Like golden sunrise, Our love is the dawn of forever . . . Beyond tomorrow, The gift of lovers, Waits bright and free, For you and me, My love . . . When the birds have flown, And we stood alone, Against the chill of the sky, Slowly, the birth of courage, Brought us love we knew Would never die! |

Oh . . . they say some people long ago,
Were searchin' for a diff'rent tune, One that they could croon, As only they can . . . They only had the rhythm . . . so, They started swayin' to and fro . . . They didn't know just what to use, That is how the blues, Really began . . . They heard the breeze in the trees, Singin' weird melodies, And they made that, The start of the blues! And from a jail came the wail, Of a down-hearted frail, And they played that, As part of the blues! From a whippoorwill out on the hill, They took a new note ( whippoorwill, whippoorwill, whippoorwill . . . ) Pushed it through a horn 'till it was worn, Into a blue note . . . ( whippoorwill, whippoorwill, whippoorwill . . . ) An' then they nursed it, and rehearsed it, And gave out the news, That the "Southland" . . . Gave birth to the blues! ( Shout out the wonderful news! ) Oh, the breeze from the trees, A wail from the jail, A buzz from the cousin of a nightin'gale, And "Southland" ( hello, hello! ) Gave birth to the blues! Music by Ray Henderson with lyrics by B.G. DeSylva and Lew Brown |

Lost in the shuffle, I've drifted an' strayed
Bruised by the city, bewildered, betrayed With a heart heavy laden with faltering strides I have come to the bridge, to the line that divides! What am I doing up here in a daze As I gaze at the cold river bed? Why do I ask myself, "Shall I go back when I seem to be going ahead?" To black moonlight! Where everything reflects your colour Darkness that is endless. nights that leave me friendless . . . blue! Black moonlight! You make the lights of Harlem duller Just like me you're faded, jaded and degraded . . . too! Why must you send . . . ebony moonbeams, depressing, distressing . . . like shadows of love that are gone? Where will it end? Will it spread on to the starlight, the sunlight and darken each promise of dawn? Black moonlight! I've lost all power to resist you Madly, I await you, even though I hate you Black, black moonlight! Music by Arthur Johnston with lyrics by Arthur Coslow, 1933 |

Bless the beasts and the children,
For in this world they have no voice, They have no choice. Bless the beasts and the children, For the world can never be, The world they see. Light their way When the darkness surrounds them; Give them love, let it shine all around them. Bless the beasts and the children; Give them shelter from a storm; Keep them safe; Keep them warm. Light their way When the darkness surrounds them; Give them love, let it shine all around them. Bless the beasts and the children; Give them shelter from a storm; Keep them safe; Keep them warm.

We'll have a blue room,
A new room, for two room. Where every day's a holiday, Because you're married to me Not like a ball room, A small room, a hall room, Where I can smoke my pipe away, With your wee head upon my knee We will thrive on, keep alive on, Just nothing but kisses, With mister and missus, Own little blue chairs You sew your trousseau, and Robinson Crusoe, Is not so far from worldly cares, As our blue room, far away upstairs (They will thrive on, keep alive on, Just nothing but kisses With mister and missus, Own little blue chair She'll wear her trousseau, and Robinson Crusoe) Is not so far from worldly cares, As our blue room, Far away upstairs |
