Tony Bennett

Yesterday you came my way,
And when you smiled at me,
In my heart I felt a thrill you see,
That it was love at sight and
I was right to love you as I do.
Still I never dreamed that you could love me too.

Your eyes of blue, your kisses too,
I never knew what they could do.
I can't believe that you're in love with me.

You're telling ev'ry one I know
I'm on your mind each place we go
They can't believe that you're in love with me.

I have always placed you far above me.
I just can't imagine that you love me.
And after all is said and done,
To think that I'm the lucky one.
I can't believe that you're in love with me.

Skies are gray. I'm blue each day
When you are not around.
Ev'ry thing goes wrong, my dear I've found
But when you're by my side I fill with pride
For I'm so proud of you
It all seems too good to me to all be true

Your eyes of blue, your kisses too,
I never knew what they could do.
I can't believe that you're in love with me.

You're telling ev'ry one I know
I'm on your mind each place we go
They can't believe that you're in love with me.

I have always placed you far above me.
I just can't imagine that you love me.
And after all is said and done,
To think that I'm the lucky one.
I can't believe that you're in love with me.

I FALL IN LOVE TOO EASILY by Tony Bennett I fall in love too easily I fall in love too fast I fall in love too terribly hard for love to everlast My heart should be well-schooled 'Cause I been fooled in the past and still I fall in love too easily I fall in love too fast I fall in love too easily I fall in love too fast I fall in love too terribly hard for love to everlast My heart should be well-schooled 'Cause I been fooled in the past And still I fall in love too easily I fall in love too fast

I looked at you and suddenly
Something in your eyes I see
Soon begins witching me
It's that old devil moon
That you stole from the sky
It's that old devil moon deep in your eyesYou and your glance makes this romance too hot to handle
Stars in the night blazin' their light can't hold a candle
To your razzle dazzleYou've got me flyin' high and wide
On a magic carpet ride
Full of butterflies inside
I wanna cry
Wanna croon
Wanna laugh like a loon
It's that old devil moon deep in your eyesJust when I think I'm free as a dove
Old evil moon deep in your eyes
Blinds me with love!!You and your glance makes this romance too hot to handle
Stars in the night blazin' their light can't hold a candle
To your razzle dazzleYou've got me flyin' high and wide
On a magic carpet ride
Full of butterflies inside
I wanna cry
Wanna croon
Wanna laugh like a loon
It's that old devil moon deep in your eyesJust when I think I'm free as a dove
Old evil moon deep in your eyes
Blinds me with love

Each night in some cafe
I'm on display until the dark, turns into dawn
Up upon the stand, singing with the band
While the music plays on

Each night is just a long
And there where song until the last couple has gone
Then only I must start singing out my heart
While the music plays on

Oh, what madness to discover
Music still possesses all its charms
As I serenade my lover
Dancing by in someone else's arms

But I am not allowed to show the crowd
What happens when romance has gone
I must hide my feels singing through the tears
While the music plays on

Oh, what madness to discover
Music still possesses all of its charms
As I serenade my lover
Dancing by in someone else's arms

But I am not allowed to show the crowd
What happens when romance has gone
I must hide my feels singing through my tears
While the music plays on

Crazy rhythm, here's the doorway
I'll go my way, you'll go your way
Crazy rhythm, from now on, we're through

Here is where we have a showdown
I'm too high and you're too low down
Crazy rhythm, here's goodbye to you

They say that when a high brow meets a low brow
Walking along Broadway
Soon the high brow, he has no brow
Ain't it a shame and you're to blame

What's the use of our mission
You produce the same condition
Crazy rhythm, I've gone crazy too

They say that when a high brow meets a low brow
Walking along Broadway
Soon the high brow, he has no brow
Ain't it a shame and you're to blame

What's the use of prohibition
You produce the same condition
Crazy rhythm, I've gone crazy too
Crazy rhythm, I've gone crazy too
Crazy rhythm, I've gone crazy too

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

Lullaby of Birdland, that's what I
Always hear when you sigh
Never in my wordland
Could there be ways to reveal
In a phrase how I feel

Have you ever heard two turtle doves
Bill and coo when they love?
That's the kind of magic
Music we make with our lips when we kiss

And there's a weepy old willow
He really knows how to cry
That's how I'd cry in my pillow
If you should tell me farewell and goodbye

Lullaby of Birdland whisper low
Kiss me sweet and we'll go
Flyin' high in Birdland
High in the sky up above
All because we're in love

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

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')

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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 wanna be around to pick up the pieces
When somebody breaks your heart
Some somebody twice as smart as IA somebody who will swear to be true
As you used to do with me
Who'll leave you to learn
That mis'ry loves company, wait and seeI mean, I wanna be around to see how he does it
When he breaks your heart to bits
Let's see if the puzzle fits so fineAnd that's when I'll discover that revenge is sweet
As I sit there applaudin' from a front-row seat
When somebody breaks your heart
Like you, like you broke mine

I often wonder why you came to me
Brought such a flame to me
Then let it die
And if another love should find my heart
It will remind my heart of your goodbye
With every new love you'll come back to me
In other eyes it's you I'll see

If I love again, though it's someone new
If I love again, it will still be you

In someone's else's fond embrace
I'll close my eyes and see your face
If I love again I'll find other charms
But I'll make-believe you are in my arms
And though my lips whisper "I love you"
My heart will not be true
I'll be loving you every time I love again

The falling leaves
Drift by the window
The autumn leaves
Of red and gold
I see your lips
The summer kisses
The sunburned hands
I used to hold
Since you went away
The days grow long
And soon I'll hear
Old winter's song
But I miss you most of all
My darling
When autumn leaves
Start to fall

Since you went away
The days grow long
And soon I'll hear
Old winter's song
But I miss you most of all
My darling
When autumn leaves
Start to fall
Start to fall
Start to fall
Autumn Leaves

Who can I turn to when nobody needs me?
My heart wants to know and so I must go where destiny leads me
With no star to guide me and no one beside me
I'll go on my way and, after the day, the darkness will hide meAnd maybe tomorrow I'll find what I'm after
I'll throw off my sorrow, beg, steal, or borrow my share of laughter
With you I could learn to, with you what a new day
But who can I turn to if you turn away?With you I could learn to, with you what a new day
But who can I turn to if you turn away?
