About A Quarter To Nine

The stars are gonna' twinkle and shine,
This evening about a quarter to nine.
My lovin' arms are gonna' tenderly twine
Around you around a quarter to nine.

I know I won't be late 'cause at half past eight I'm gonna' hurry there.
I'll be waiting where the lane begins, waiting for you on needles and pins.

And then the world is gonna' be mine
This evening about a quarter to nine...

Glen Gray
Blue Moon, you saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own

Blue Moon, you knew just what I was there for
You heard me saying a prayer for
Someone I really could care for

And then there suddenly appeared before me
The only one my arms will ever hold
I heard somebody whisper, "Please adore me"
And when I looked, the moon had turned to gold

Blue Moon, now I'm no longer alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own

The Four Aces
I'm In the Mood For Love

I'm in the mood for love
Simply because you're near me
Funny, but when you're near me
I'm in the mood for love

Heaven is in your eyes
Bright as the stars we're under
Oh, is it any wonder?
I'm in the mood for love

Why stop to think of whether
This little dream might fade?
Let's put our hearts together
Now we are one, I'm not afraid

If there's a cloud above
If it should rain, we'll let it
But, for tonight, forget it
I'm in the mood for love

Why stop to think of whether
This little dream might fade?
Let's put our hearts together
Now we are one, I'm not afraid

If there's a cloud above
If it should rain, we'll let it
But, for tonight, forget it
I'm in the mood
Hope you're in the mood
For love

Xavier Cugat
The Lady In Red

Say! Have you ever met the girl
Who’s the toast of the town?
A work of art without a question,
You’d better write her number down.

Oh! the lady in red, the fellows are crazy
For the lady in red.
She’s a bit gaudy, but laudy,
What a personality.
Oh! the lady in red,is fresh as a daisy
When the town is in bed.
Dancing and dining and shining
With originally.
She is very proper.
She’s nothing more than a pal,
But oh me! and oh my! You’d never stop ‘er,
She’d be a dangerous gal,
If she should ever meet the right guy.
Oh! the lady in red, the fellows are crazy
For the lady in red.
Is she a study, oh! buddy
What a personality,
She’s got vitality.

Glen Gray
When I Grow Too Old To Dream

We have been gay, going our way
Life has been beautiful, we have been young
After you've gone, life will go on
Like an old song we have sung

When I grow too old to dream
I'll have you to remember
When I grow too old to dream
Your love will live in my heart

So, kiss me my sweet
And so let us part
And when I grow too old to dream
That kiss will live in my heart

And when I grow too old to dream
Your love will live in my heart

YOU AND THE NIGHT AND THE MUSIC

You and the night and the music
Fill me with flaming desire
Setting my being completely on fire

You and the night and the music
Thrill me, but will we be one
After the night and the music are done?

Until the pale light of dawning and daylight
Our hearts will be throbbing guitars
Morning may come without warning
And take away the stars

If we must live for the moment
Love till the moment is through
After the night and the music die
Will I have you?

Jan Garber
A Beautiful Lady In Blue

Ev'ryone loves a love story
Told of a maid and a man
But listen to my love story,
It ended before it began.

A beautiful lady in blue,
We met just like two shadows do,
Not one word was said, she kiss'd me and fled
And our little romance was thro'.

A beautiful lady in blue,
She thought I was someone she knew,
Her lips so divine Were not meant for mine,
The night seem'd to laugh at us too.

How did I know she was lovely?
There wan't a moonbeam a-glow.
How would I know there's a haven
Unles my heart told me so?

A beautiful lady in blue,
And strange as it may sound to you,
A lifetime was spent in one little moment
With a beautiful lady in blue.

Shep Fields
DID I REMEMBER?

Did I remember to tell you I adore you
And I am livin' for you alone
Did I remember to say
I'm lost without you
And just how mad about you I've grown
You were in my arms
And that was all I knew
We were alone, we two
What did I say to you
Did I remember to tell you I adore you
And pray forevermore you'll be mine

Until The Real Thing Comes Along

I'd work for you, I'd even slave for you
I'd be a beggar or a knave for you whatever that is
And if that isn't love, it'll have to do
Until the real thing comes along

I'd gladly move the earth for you
To prove my love, dear, and its worth for you
If that isn't love, it will have to do gotta do
Until the real thing comes along

With all the words, dear, at my command
I just can't make you understand
I'll always love you, darling, come what may
My heart is yours, what more can I say?
You want me to rob a bank? Well I won't do it

I'd sigh for you, yes, I'd even cry for you, yes
I'd tear the stars down from the skies for you
If that isn't love, well skip it, it'll have to do
Until the real thing comes along

Listen baby
I'd even sigh for you, I'm 'bout ready to cry for you
I'd tear the stars down from the skies for you
If that isn't love, it'll have to do, baby, yes
Until the real thing comes along
Here's the real thing, baby

Πάλι γύρισα πίσω
για ένα ακόμα τσιγάρο
Δε θα σου εξηγήσω
Αγκαλιά θα σε πάρω

Όσα λενε οι λέξεις
Τη ζωή δεν την πιάνουν
Κι όσα λόγια αν ξοδέψεις
Για να ζήσεις δε φτάνουν

Από που θες να ζήσεις
Από ποιά κερδισμένα
Και σε ποιόν να γυρίσεις
Όταν χάσεις κι εσένα

Η αγάπη δεν είναι
μοναχά ένα βλέμμα
Ούτε μόνο ένα μείνε
Θέλει όλο το αίμα

Η αγάπη μου είναι
το πιο κόκκινο χρώμα
Κατακόκκινη γίνε!!!
Σ' αγαπάω ακόμα!!!!

Να κοιτάς και να θέλεις
Μη φοβάσαι να χάνεις
Στη χαρά ν'ανατέλλεις
Ζωντανή μην πεθάνεις

Κι αν ο φόβος μας δένει
Να μη μείνουμε μόνοι
Πάλι ο φόβος μας στέλνει
Μακριά απ' ό,τι ενώνει

Little Old Lady

Little old lady passing by,
Catching everyone’s eye,
You have such a charming manner,
Sweet and shy.
Little old bonnet set in place,
And a Smile on your face,
You’re a perfect picture in your
Lavander and lace.
Little bit of business here,
Little bit of business there,
Bet that you’ve been window shopping
All around the square.
Little old lady, time for tea
Here’s a kiss, two or three,
You’re just like that little old lady,
I hold dear to me.

Satan Takes A Holiday

Stop, look, and listen to me,
Last night at a quarter past three

The Devil started dancin'
He was entrancin'
hen he did the "Jangle: his own way
His bones were rattlin' loudly,
As he began to shuffle proudly,
That's the way that Satan takes a holiday

The music wasn't good,
But it was plenty spooky,
That 's the way he likes it night and day
Teh gentleman prefers to listen
To aggravatin' rhythm
That's the way Satan takes a holiday.

Watch out, He's comin' out,
And then you'll shout unless you're good, knock wood.
He's really rather goofy tryin' to be spooky,
But he has to do it day by day
His job is not allurin' never-the-less quite endurin'
Maybe that's why Satan takes a holiday

Sweet Leilani

Sweet Leilani
Heavenly flower
Nature fashioned roses kissed with dew
And then she placed them in a bower
It was the start of you
Sweet Leilani
Heavenly flower
I dreamed of paradise for two
You are my paradise completed
You are my dream come true

Sweet Leilani
Heavenly flower
Tropic skies are jealous as they shine
I think they're jealous of your blue eyes
Jealous because you're mine
Sweet Leilani
Heavenly flower
I dreamed of paradise for two
You are my paradise completed
You are my dream come true

You are my paradise completed
You are my dream come true

Trust In Me

Trust in me in all you do
Have the faith I have in you
Love will see us through
If only you trust in me
Why don't you, you trust me

Come to me when things go wrong
Cling to me Daddy, oh yeah, and I'll be strong
We can get along, we can get along
Oh, if only you trust in me

While there's a moon, a moon on high
While there are birds, birds to fly
While there is you, you and I
I can be sure that I love you

Oh, stand beside me, stand beside me all the while
Come on Daddy, face the future, why don't you smile
Trust in me and I'll be worthy of you

Oh yeah, yeah, why don't you, you trust in me in all you do
And have the faith I, I have in you
Oh, and love will see us through
If only you trust in me
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Why don't you, you come to me when things go wrong
Cling to me and, whoa, and I'll be strong
We can get along, we can get along
Oh, if only you trust in me
Yeah, yeah

WAS IT RAIN


Skies were gray that rainy day
We parted in the lane
Was it tears that fell or was it rain?
There we stood as lovers would;
Did parting bring you pain?
Was it tears that fell or was it rain?
I couldn't tell if your eyes were misty,
Or if you felt regret,
I noticed when you kissed me
That both your cheeks were wet.
Till we meet again, my sweet,
That mem'ry will remain.
Was it tears that fell or was it rain?

YOU CAN'T STOP ME FROM DREAMING

You can stop me from kissing you
You can stop me from cuddling too
You can treat me mean
Honey, that's all right, but
I'll get even with you tonight
'Cause you can't stop me from dreaming!

You can stop me from holding hands,
Make me listen to your commands,
You can say: "No, no!" honey that's all right
But I'll get even with you tonight

'Cause you can't stop me from dreaming
From one o'clock till nine
I'll dream you're mine,
I'll steal a kiss
See what you're gonna miss

You can stop me romancing you,
You're the boss now but we're not through
You can turn me down, honey, that's all right
But I'll get even with you tonight,
'Cause you can't stop me from dreaming!

YOURS AND MINE

he stars that shine are yours and mine
The rainbows in the sky are yours and mine
The song of springtime, the lullaby of fall
The sunshine of summer time belongs to us all
The moon above is yours and mine
The right to fall in love is yours and mine
The hope of finding the dream our hearts design
All this is yours and mine

With Plenty Of Money And You

Well, baby, what I couldn't do
With plenty of money and you.
In spite of the worry that money brings.
Just a little filthy looker buys a lot of things.
And I could take you to places that you would like to go.
But outside of that, I've no use for dough.
It's the root of all evil,
Of strife and upheaval.
But I'm certain, honey, that life would be sunny
With plenty of money and you.

It's the root of all evil,
Of strife and upheaval.
But I'm certain, honey, that life would be sunny
With plenty of money and you.
