"Somethin' Stupid"

"Somethin' Stupid"


I know I stand in line until you think you have the time
To spend an evening with me
And if we go someplace to dance, I know that there's a chance
You won't be leaving with me
And afterwards we drop into a quiet little place and have a drink or two
And then I go and spoil it all by saying something stupid like "I love you"

I can see it in your eyes
That you despise the same old lies you heard the night before
And though it's just a line to you, for me it's true
And never seemed so right before

I practice every day to find some clever lines to say
To make the meaning come through
But then I think I'll wait until the evening gets late and I'm alone with you
The time is right, your perfume fills my head, the stars get red and, oh, the night's so blue
And then I go and spoil it all by saying something stupid like "I love you"

[instrumental]

The time is right, your perfume fills my head, the stars get red and, oh, the night's so blue
And then I go and spoil it all by sayin' something stupid like "I love you"

I love you
I love you
I love you

[Fade:]
I love you

"Something"

"Something"


Something in the way she moves
Attracts me like no other lover
Something in the way that she woos me
Don't want to leave her now
Better believe, and how

Somewhere in her smile she knows
I don't need no other lover
Something in her style that shows me
Don't want to leave her now
Better believe, and how

You're asking me will my love grow
Well, I don't know, no, I don't know
You stick around, Jack, it might show
I don't know, no, I don't know

Something in the way she knows
All I gotta do is just think of her
Something in the things that she shows me
Don't want to leave her now
Better believe, and how

[instrumental]

You're asking me will my love grow
I don't know, no, I don't know
But you hang around, Jack, it might show
I don't know, no, I don't know

Something in the way she knows me
And all I gotta do is just think of her
Something in those things that she shows me
Don't want to leave her now
Better believe, and how

Mm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm

I don't plan to leave her now

"Something's Gotta Give"

"Something's Gotta Give"



When an irresistible force such as you
Meets an old immovable object like me
You can bet just as sure as you live

Something's gotta give
Something's gotta give
Something's gotta give

When an irrepressible smile such as yours
Warms an old implacable heart such as mine
Don't say no because I insist

Somewhere, somehow
Someone's gotta be kissed

So, en garde, who knows what the fates might have in store
From their vast mysterious sky
I'll try hard ignorin' those lips that I adore
But how long can anyone try?

Fight, fight, fight, fight, fight it with all of our might
Chances are some heavenly star-spangled night
We'll find out just as sure as we live

Something's gotta give
Something's gotta give
Something's gotta give

Fight, fight, fight it with all of your might
Chances are that some heavenly star-spangled night
We'll find out just as sure as we live

Something's gotta give
Something's gotta give
Something's gotta give

Something's gotta give
Something's gotta give

Aww, let's tear it up

"Somewhere Along The Way"

"Somewhere Along The Way"



I used to walk with you along the avenue, our hearts were young and gay,
How could I know I'd lose you somewhere along the way.
The friends we used to know, would always smile hello,
No love like our love, they say then love slipped through our fingers,
Somewhere along the way.
I should forget, but with the loneliness of night, I start remembering everything,
You're gone and yet there's still a feeling deep inside that you'll always be part of me.
So now I look for you along the avenue, and as I wander I pray
That someday soon, I'll find you, somewhere along the way.

"Somewhere In Your Heart"

"Somewhere In Your Heart"



Somewhere in your heart, try to find a place for me
Somewhere in your heart, I won't care where it might be
One little corner may not mean so much to you
But one little corner would be enough to see me through

Somewhere in your dreams, let my lips come close to you
Though they're only dreams, someday they may all come true
Is it so much to ask for such a tiny part?
Won't you find a place for me, somewhere in your heart?

(Somewhere in your dreams), let my lips come close to you
(Though they're only dreams), someday they may all come true
Is it so much to ask for such a tiny part?
Won't you find a place for me, somewhere in your heart?

"Somewhere My Love"

"Somewhere My Love"


Somewhere, my love, there will be songs to sing
Although the snow covers the hopes of Spring
Somewhere a hill blossoms in green and gold
And there are dreams, all that your heart can hold
Someday we'll meet again, my love
Someday whenever the Spring breaks through

You'll come to me out of the long-ago
Warm as the wind, soft as the kiss of snow
Till then, my sweet, think of me now and then
Godspeed, my love, till you are mine again

[jazz instrumental-first four lines]

Someday we'll meet again, my love
I said "someday whenever that Spring breaks through"

You'll come to me out of the long-ago
Warm as the wind, and as soft as the kiss of snow
Till then, my sweet, think of me now and then
Godspeed, my love, till you are mine again!

"Song Sung Blue"

"Song Sung Blue"


[instrumental intro]

Song sung blue, everybody knows one
Song sung blue, every garden grows one
Me and you are subject to the blues now and then
But when ya take the blues and make a song
Ya sing 'em out again

Song sung blue, weepin' like a willow
Song sung blue, sleepin' on my pillow
Funny thing, but you can sing it with a cry in your voice
And before you know, it starts to feelin' good
Ya simply got no choice

(Song sung blue), everybody knows one
(Song sung blue), every garden grows one
Me and you are subject to the blues now and then
But when ya take the blues and make a song
Ya sing 'em out again

(Song sung blue), weepin' like a willow
(Song sung blue), sleepin' on my pillow
Funny thing, but you can sing it with a cry in your voice
And before you know, it starts to feelin' good
Ya simply got no choice

[instrumental mixed with backups' (Song sung blue)]

"South - To A Warmer Place"

"South - To A Warmer Place"


I'd be glad to stay right here with you
Fact is, that is what I'd planned to
But from that fool look on your face
I think I'll head South to a warmer place

Thought I'd given you the best of me
I'd be glad to share the rest of me
But there's a chill in your embrace
So, I'd better head South - to a warmer place

Seems like yesterday we could kiss and build a fire
But now it's ten below
Seems like yesterday nights were warm with love's desire
But now it feels like snow

I don't mind a cold day now and then
But this long deep freeze has done me in
And it's too late to plead your case
So I'm goin' South to a warmer place

[instrumental-full chorus]

I don't mind a cold day now and then
But this long deep freeze has done me in
And it's too late to plead your case
So I'd better go South - to a warmer place

"South Of The Border"

"South Of The Border"



South of the border, down Mexico way
That's where I fell in love, when the stars above came out to play
And now as I wander, my thoughts ever stray
South of the border, down Mexico way

She was a picture in old Spanish lace
Just for a tender while I kissed a smile upon her face
'Cause it was fiesta and we were so gay
South of the border, Mexico way

Then she sighed as she whispered, "manana"
Never dreaming that we were parting
And I lied as a whispered, "manana"
'Cause our tomorrow never came

South of the border, I jumped back one day
There in a veil of white, by the candlelight, she knelt to pray
The mission bells told me that I mustn't stay
South of the border, Mexico way

The mission bells told me, ding, dong, that I must not stay
Stay South of the border, down Mexico way

"Spring Is Here"

"Spring Is Here"



Once there was a thing called spring
When the world was writng verses
Like yours and mine.

All the lads and girls would sing
When we set a little tables
And drank May wine.

Now April May and June
Are sadly out of tune
Life has stuck the pin in the baloon.

Spring is here!
Why doesn't my heart go dancing ?
Spring is here!
Why isn't the waltz entrancing?
No desire, no ambition leads me,
Maybe it's because nobody needs me.

Spring is here!
Why doesn't the breeze delight me?
Stars appear,
Why doesn't the night invite me?
Maybe it's because nobody loves me.
Spring is here I hear
