"Secret Love"

"Secret Love"


Once I had a secret love
That lived within the heart of me
All too soon my secret love
Became impatient to be free

So I told a friendly star
The way that dreamers often do
Just how wonderful you are
And why I'm so in love with you

Now I shout it from the highest hills
Even told the golden daffodils
At last my heart's an open door
And my secret love's no secret anymore

[Instrumental Interlude]

Now I shout it from the highest hills
Even told the golden daffodils
At last my heart's an open door
And my secret love's no secret anymore

"Sentimental Journey"

"Sentimental Journey"



Gonna take a sentimental journey
Gonna set my heart at ease
Gonna take a sentimental journey
To renew old memories

Got my bag and got my reservation
Spent each dime I could afford
Like a child in wild anticipation
Long to hear that "All aboard!"

Seven, that's the time we leave, at seven
I'll be waitin' up for heaven
Countin' every mile of railroad track
That takes me back

Never thought my heart could be so yearny
Why did I decide to roam?
Gonna take a sentimental journey
Sentimental journey home

Sentimental journey

"Serenade In Blue"

"Serenade In Blue"



When I hear that Serenade in blue
I'm somewhere in another world, alone with you
Sharing all the joys we used to know
Many moons ago

Once again your face comes back to me
Just like the theme of some forgotten melody
In the album of my memory
Serenade in blue

It seems like only yesterday
The small cafe, a crowded floor
And as we danced the night away
I hear you say forever more
And then the song became a sigh
Forever more became goodbye
But you remained in my heart

So tell me darling in there still a spark?
Or only lonely ashes of the flame we knew
Should I go on whistling in the dark,
Serenade in blue

"Shaking The Blues Away"

"Shaking The Blues Away"



There's an old superstition 'way down south
Everybody believes that trouble won't stay
If you shake it away

When they hold a revival way down south
Everybody with care and trouble that day
Tries to shake it away

Shaking the blues away, unhappy news away
If you are blue, it's easy to
Shake off your cares and troubles

Telling the blues to go, they may refuse to go
But as a rule, they'll go if you'll
Shake them away

Do like the voodoos do, listening to a voodoo melody
They shake their bodies so, to and fro
With every shake, a lucky break

Proving that there's a way to chase your cares away
If you would lose your weary blues
Shake 'em away

"Silver Bells"

"Silver Bells"



Silver bells, silver bells
Soon it will be Christmas day
Christmas, Christmas, Christmas

City sidewalks, busy sidewalks, dressed in holiday style
In the air there's a feeling of Christmas
Children laughing, people passing, meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner you hear

Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day

Strings of street lights, even stop lights blink a bright red and green
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures
Hear the snow crunch, see the kids bunch this is Santa's big scene
And above all the bustle you hear

Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day
Soon it will be Christmas day

"Since I Fell For You"

"Since I Fell For You"



When you give love and never get love,
You'd better let love depart,
I know it's so and still I know,
I can't get you out'a my heart.
You made me leave my happy home,
You took my love and now you're gone,
Since I fell for you.
My life has been such misery and pain,
I guess I'll never be the same,
Since I fell for you.

Well, it's too bad and it's too sad,
That I'm in love with you.
Well, you love me and then you snub me,
But what can I do
I'm still in love with you.
I guess I'll never see the light,
I get these blues most every night,
Since I fell for you.

Well, its' too bad and it's too sad,
That I'm in love with you.
Well, you love me and then you snub me,
But what can I do
I'm still in love with you.
I guess I'll never see the light,
I get these blues most every night,
Since I fell for you.

Since you love me
then you snub me,
I prayed you'd put the world above me,
And now I black and blue
scoo - doo - doo - doo...
Since I fell for you

"Singin' In The Rain"

"Singin' In The Rain"



I'm singing in the rain
Just singing in the rain
What a glorious feeling
I'm happy again
I'm laughin the clouds
So dark up above
The suns in my heart
And I'm ready for love
Let the stormy clouds chase
Everyone from the place
Comon with the rain
I have a smile on my face
I walk down the lane
With a happy refraim
And I'm singing,
Just singing in the rain
I'm singing in the rain
Just singing in the rain
What a glorious feeling
I'm so happy again
I'm laughing the clouds
So dark up above
The sun's in my heart
And I'm ready for love
Let the stormy clouds chase
Everyone from the place
Comon with the rain
I have a smile on my face
I walk down the lane
With a happy refraim
And I'm singing,
Just singing in the rain

"Sleepy Lagoon"

"Sleepy Lagoon"



A sleepy lagoon, a tropical moon and two on an island
A sleepy lagoon and two hearts in tune in some lullaby land
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

The memory of this moment of love
Will haunt me forever
A sleepy lagoon, a tropical moon,
And you

La-da-da-da-da,
Ha-ah-ah-ah-ah,
A sleepy lagoon, and you.

"Slightly Out Of Tune (Desafinado)"

"Slightly Out Of Tune (Desafinado)"



Love is like a never ending melody,
Poets have compared it to a symphony,
A symphony conducted by the lighting of the moon,
But our song of love is slightly out of tune...

Once your kisses raised me to a fever pitch,
Now the orchestration doesn’t seem so rich,
Seems to me you’ve changed the tune we used to sing,
Like the bossa nova love should swing...

We used to harmonize two souls in perfect time,
Now the song is different and the words don’t even rhyme,
‘Cause you forgot the melody our hearts would always croon,
What good’s a heart that’s slightly out of tune?

Tune your heart with mine the way it used to be,
Join with me in harmony and sing a song of love,
We’re bound to get in tune again before too long,
There’ll be no Desafinado when your heart belongs to me completely
Then you won’t be slightly out of tune, you’ll sing along with me!

"Small Talk"

"Small Talk"



I don't want to talk small talk
Now that I'm alone with you
I don't want to talk small talk
We've got bigger things to do
Let's not talk of the weather
Or the fashions for the fall
Why don't you stop all this small talk?
I've got something better for your lips to do
And that takes no talk at all
I've got to buy me a dressy dress, the one that I have is such a mess!
Small Talk!
Who will you vote for next election,
How do you like the stamp collection?
Small Talk!
Read in a book the other day that halibut spawn in early may
And horses whinney and donkeys bray and furthermore,
The pigmy tribes in Africa may have a war.
No?
Yes!
I don't want to talk small talk
What do you think they charge for ham now?
Now that I'm alone with you
Got so a buck ain't worth a damn now
I don't want to talk small talk
Read where the winters are getting milder
We've got better things to do
And that the teenage kids are wilder
Let's not talk of the weather
One of these days I'm gonna paint the kitchen
Or the fashions for the fall
Get pop to put a new light switch in
Why don't you stop all that small talk
Like I was saying
I've got something better
What I mean is
For your lips
I was only
To do
