Glenn Miller
Moonlight Cocktail

Couple of jiggers of moonlight and add a star,
Pour in the blue of a June night and one guitar,
Mix in a couple of dreamers and there you are
Lovers hail the Moonlight Cocktail.

Now add a couple of flowers, a drop of dew,
Stir for a couple of hours 'til dreams come true.
Add to the number of kisses, it's up to you.
Moonlight Cocktail need a few.

Cool it in the summer breeze
Serve it in the starlight underneath the trees.
You'll discover tricks like these
Are sure to make your Moonlight Cocktail please.

Follow the simple directions and they will bring
Life of another complexion where you'll be king.
You will awake in the morning and start to sing
Moonlight Cocktails are the thing.

Follow the simple directions and they will bring
Life of another complexion where you'll be king.
You will awake in the morning and start to sing
Moonlight Cocktails are the thing.

Harry James
Sleepy Lagoon

A sleepy lagoon, a tropical moon and two on an island
A sleepy lagoon and two hearts in tune in some lullabyland
The fireflies' gleam reflects in the stream
They sparkle and shimmer
A star from on high falls out of the sky
And slowly grows dimmer
The leaves from the trees all dance in the breeze
And float on the ripples
We're deep in a spell as nightingales tell
Of roses and dew
The memory of this moment of love
Will haunt me forever
A tropical moon, a sleepy lagoon
And you

Frank Sinatra with Harry James
All or Nothing At All

All or nothing at all
Half a love, never appealed to me
If your heart, never could yield to me
Then I'd rather- rather have nothing at all

All or nothing at all
If it's love, there is no in between
Why begin then cry, for something that might have been
No I'd rather- rather have nothing at all

But please don't bring your lips so close to my cheek
Don't smile or I'll be lost beyond recall
The kiss in your eyes, the touch of your hand makes me weak
And my heart may go dizzy and fall

And if I fell I fell under the spell of your call
I would be, caught in the undertow
So you see, I've got to say no, no
All or nothing at all

Dooley Wilson
As Time Goes By

You must remember this
A kiss is still a kiss
A sigh is just a sigh
The fundamental things apply as time goes by

And 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Moonlight and love songs never out of date
Hearts full of passion, jealousy, and 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 and glory
A case of do or die
The world will always welcome lovers as time goes by

Harry James
I HAD THE CRAZIEST DREAM

In a dream the strangest and the oddest things appear
And what insane and silly things we do.
Here is what I see before me, vividly and clear:
As I recall it, you were in it, too.

I had the craziest dream last night, yes I did.
I never dreamt it could be
Yet there you were, in love with me.
I found your lips close to mine so I kissed you
And you didn’t mind it at all.
When I’m awake such a break never happens.
How long can a gal go on dreaming?

If there’s a chance that you care
Then, please, say you do, Baby.
Say it and make my craziest dream come true.

 

[Snow Whitty]

Βρέχει κι είμαι τα φώτα που κοιτάς
αφηρημένα, πίσω από το τζάμι.....

Βρέχει κι είμαι ο περαστικός
που βιαστικά από δίπλα σου περνάει
στον ώμο του να κλαίει ο ουρανός
και αυτός κλειστή ομπρέλα να κρατάει....

Βρέχει και πέφτω γύρω σου παντού
μα δεν περνώ από τα ρούχα στην καρδιά σου
γίνομαι σύννεφο σε μια γωνιά ουρανού
να μην κρύβω τον ήλιο απ' τη ματιά σου.....

Βρέχει, σταγόνα γίνομαι μικρή
που αγγίζει απαλά το πρόσωπό σου
λίγο προτού παγιδευτεί, σε μια ρωγμή,
στην άκρη των χειλιών σου...

Cat Power - Moonshiner

I've been a moonshiner
For seventeen long years
I spent all my money on whisky and beer

I go to some hollow
And set up my holy holy still
If drinking do not kill me
Then I don't know what will

I go to some bar room
And drink with my friends
If women and men would come to follow
To see what I might spend
God bless them handsome men
I wish they was mine

They're breath is as sweet as
The dew on the holy holy vine

You're already in hell, you're already in hell
I wish we could go to hell

When the bottle gets empty
Then life ain't worth a damn

EURYTHMICS

When tomorrow comes

Underneath your dreamlit eyes
Shades of sleep have driven you away.
The moon is pale outside
And you are far from here.
Breathing shifts your careless head
Untroubled by the chaos of our lives.
Another day - another night
Has taken you again my dear.
And you know that Im gonna be the one
Wholl be there
When you need someone to depend upon
When tomorrow comes...
When tomorrow comes...

Wait till tomorrow comes - yea yea...
Wait till tomorrow comes - yea yea...

Last night while you were
Lying in my arms
And I was wondering where you were
You know you looked just like a baby
Fast asleep in this dangerous world.
Every star was shining brightly
Just like a million years before.
And we were feeling very small
Underneath the universe.
And you know that Im gonna be the one
Wholl be there when you need
Someone to depend upon

When tomorrow comes...
When tomorrow comes...

Title: On the Border lyrics
Artist: Eagles


Cruisin’ down the center of a two way street
Wond’rin’ who is really in the driver’s seat
Mindin’ my bus’ness along comes big brother
Says, ’son, you better get on one side or the other.’

I’m out on the border, I’m walkin’ the line
Don’t you tell me ’bout your law and order
I’m try’n’ to change this water to wine.

After a hard day, I’m safe at home
Foolin’ with my baby on the telephone
Out of nowhere somebody cuts in and
Says, ’hmm, you in some trouble boy, we know where you’re been.’

I’m out on the border
I thought this was a private line
Don’t you tell me ’bout your law and order
I’m try’n’ to change this water to wine

Never mind your name, just give us your number, mm
Never mind your face, just show us your card, mm
And we wanna know whose wing are you under
You better step to the right or we can make it hard

I’m stuck on the border
All I wanted was some peace of mind
Don’t you tell me ’bout your law and order
I’m try’n’ to change this water to wine

On the border
On the border
On the border
On the border
On the border
Leave me be , I’m just walkin’ this line
On the border
On the border
All I wanted was some peace of mind, peace of mind
I’m out on the border
On the border
Can’t you see I’m tryin to change this water to wine
Don’t you tell me ’bout your law and order
Sick and tired of all your law and order
Sick and tired of it

Jack Leonard
I NEVER MENTION YOUR NAME

I never mention your name, oh, no!
I never dream of your eyes,
I never go where we used to go
To hear the echo of your sighs.
I never mention your name, oh, no!
I never ache for your kiss,
I never turn all the lights down low
To let the shadows reminisce.

I never wait by the fire
Expecting you to call by ten,
I never feel the slightest desire
To hold you when it's night again

I never mention your name, oh, no!
I never know you're away,
Except for ev'ry minute
Of ev'ry hour of ev'ry night and day

In the Mood

Who's the lovin' daddy with the beautiful eyes
What a pair o' lips, I'd like to try 'em for size
I'll just tell him, "Baby, won't you swing it with me"
Hope he tells me maybe, what a wing it will be
So, I said politely "Darlin' may I intrude"
He said "Don't keep me waitin' when I'm in the mood"

First I held him lightly and we started to dance
Then I held him tightly what a dreamy romance
And I said "Hey, baby, it's a quarter to three
There's a mess of moonlight, won't-cha share it with me"
"Well" he answered "Baby, don't-cha know that it's rude
To keep my two lips waitin' when they're in the mood"

In the mood, that's what he told me
In the mood, and when he told me
In the mood, my heart was skippin'
It didn't take me long to say "I'm in the mood now"

In the mood for all his kissin'
In the mood his crazy lovin'
In the mood what I was missin'
It didn't take me long to say "I'm in the mood now"

So, I said politely "Darlin' may I intrude"
He said "Don't keep me waitin' when I'm in the mood"

"Well" he answered "Baby, don't-cha know that it's rude
To keep my two lips waitin' when they're in the mood"

Who's the lovin' daddy with the beautiful eyes
What a pair o' lips, I'd like to try 'em for size
I'll just tell him, "Baby, won't you swing it with me"
Hope he tells me maybe, what a wing it will be
So, I said politely "Darlin' may I intrude"
He said "Don't keep me waitin' when I'm in the mood"

To keep my two lips waitin' when they're in the mood"

Mills Brothers
PAPER DOLL

I'm gonna buy a Paper Doll that I can call my own
A doll that other fellows cannot steal
And then the flirty, flirty guys with their flirty, flirty eyes
Will have to flirt with dollies that are real

When I come home at night she will be waiting
She'll be the truest doll in all this world
I'd rather have a Paper Doll to call my own
Than have a fickle-minded real live girl

I guess I had a million dolls or more
I guess I've played the doll game o'er and o'er
I just quarrelled with Sue, that's why I'm blue
She's gone away and left me just like all dolls do

I'll tell you boys, it's tough to be alone
And it's tough to love a doll that's not your own
I'm through with all of them
I'll never ball again
Say boy, whatcha gonna do?

I'm gonna buy a Paper Doll that I can call my own
A doll that other fellows cannot steal
And then the flirty, flirty guys with their flirty, flirty eyes
Will have to flirt with dollies that are real

When I come home at night she will be waiting
She'll be the truest doll in all this world
I'd rather have a Paper Doll to call my own
Than have a fickle-minded real live girl

Al Dexter
PISTOL PACKIN’ MAMA

Drinking beer in a cabaret and was I having fun
Until one night she caught me right
And now I’m on the run.

Lay that pistol down, babe,
Lay that pistol down.
Pistol packin’ mama,
Lay that pistol down.

She kicked out my windshield;
She hit me over the head.
She cussed and cried and said I lied
And wished that I was dead.

Lay that pistol down, babe,
Lay that pistol down.
Pistol packin’ mama,
Lay that pistol down.

Drinking beer in a cabaret and dancing with a blonde.
Until one night she shot out the light
BANG! That blonde was gone.

Lay that pistol down, babe,
Lay that pistol down.
Pistol packin’ mama,
Lay that pistol down.

I’ll see you every night, babe,
I’ll woo you every day.
I’ll be your reg’lar daddy
If you put that gun away.

Lay that pistol down, babe,
Lay that pistol down.
Pistol packin’ mama,
Lay that pistol down.

Drinking beer in a cabaret and was I having fun
Until one night she caught me right
And now I’m on the run.

Lay that pistol down, babe,
Lay that pistol down.
Pistol packin’ mama,
Lay that pistol down.

Now there was old Al Dexter
He always had his fun
But with some lead she shot him dead
His honkin’ days are done.

Lay that pistol down, babe,
Lay that pistol down.
Pistol packin’ mama,
Lay that pistol down.

I've Heard That Song Before

It seems to me I've heard that song before
It's from an old familiar score
I know it well, that melody
It's funny how a theme recalls a favorite dream
A dream that brought you so close to me

I know each word because I've heard that song before
The lyrics said "Forever more"
Forever more's a memory
Please have them play it again
And I'll remember just when
I heard that lovely song before

Bing Crosby
SUNDAY, MONDAY OR ALWAYS

Sunday, Monday or Tuesday
Wednesday, Thursday or Friday
I want you near
Every day in the year

Oh, won't you tell me when
We will meet again
Sunday, Monday or always

If you're satisfied
I'll be at your side
Sunday, Monday or always

No need to tell me now
What makes the world go 'round
When at the sight of you
My heart begins to pound and pound

And what am I to do
Can't I be with you
Sunday, Monday or always

Always and forever I must be with you
Beginning Sunday and Monday and then forever

Oh, won't you tell me when
We will meet again
Sunday, Monday or always

If you're satisfied
I'll be at your side
Sunday, Monday or always

No need to tell me now
What makes the world go 'round
When at the sight of you
My heart begins to pound, pound, pound

What am I to do
Can't I be with you
Sunday, Monday or always

THAT OLD BLACK MAGIC

That old black magic has me in its spell,
That old black magic that you weave so well.
Those icy fingers up and down my spine,
The same old witchcraft when your eyes meet mine.

The same old tingle that I feel inside,
And then that elevator starts its ride.
And down and down I go round and round I go
Like a leaf that’s caught in the tide.

I should stay away, but what can I do?
I hear your name and I’m aflame.
Aflame with such a burning desire
That only your kiss can put out the fire.

For you’re the lover I have waited for,
The mate that Fate had me created for.
And every time your lips meet mine,
Darling, down and down I go round and round I go
In a spin, loving the spin I’m in
Under that old black magic called love.

Tommy Dorsey
There Are Such Things

A heart that’s true, there are such things
A dream for two, there are such things
Someone to whisper "Darling you’re my guiding star"
Not caring what you own but just what you are

A peaceful sky, there are such things
A rainbow high where heaven sings
So have a little faith and trust in what tomorrow brings
You’ll reach a star because there are such things

So have a little faith and trust in what tomorrow brings
You’ll reach a star because there are such things

Vaughn Monroe and His Orchestra
When the Lights Go On Again All Over the World

When the lights go on again all over the world
And the boys are home again all over the world
And rain or snow is all that may fall from the skies above
A kiss won't mean "goodbye" but "Hello to love"

When the lights go on again all over the world
And the ships will sail again all over the world
Then we'll have time for things like wedding rings and free hearts will sing
When the lights go on again all over the world

When the lights go on again all over the world

Dick Haymes with The Song Spinners
YOU'LL NEVER KNOW

You'll never know just how much I miss you
You'll never know just how much I care
And if I tried, I still couldn't hide my love for you
You ought to know, for haven't I told you so
A million or more times?

You went away and my heart went with you
I speak your name in my every prayer
If there is some other way to prove that I love you
I swear I don't know how
You'll never know if you don't know now

You went away and my heart went with you
I speak your name in my every prayer
If there is some other way to prove that I love you
I swear I don't know how
You'll never know if you don't know now

You'll never know if you don't know now

Well twirl my turban, man alive
Here comes Mister Five by Five
He's one of those big, fat, bouncin' boys
Solid avoirdupois

He's five feet tall and he's five feet wide
He don't measure no more from head to toe
Than he do from side to side

Got fifteen chins and a line of jive
He's a mellow old cat, a real hep fat
He be Mister Five by Five

That man can really jump it for a fat man
The only trouble is there's no way of knowin'
Whether he's comin' or goin'

Mister Five by Five
He's slightly plump on the solid side
He don't shake it no more from head to toe
Than he do from side to side

Mister Five, Five by Five
He's five feet tall and he's five feet wide
Slightly plump and he can jump
'Cause he's a mellow old fat and a real hep cat

Than he do from side to side

He doesn't measure no more from head to toe
Than'll he do from side to side

Mister Five, Mister Five, Mister Five
