"I Don't Want To See Tomorrow"

"I Don't Want To See Tomorrow"

(I don't want to see tomorrow,
unless I see it with you.)

Tomorrow, so they say
Will be a lovely day,
A bright new sun will suddenly break through,
But I don't want to see tomorrow,
Unless I see it with you.

Tomorrow, so I hear
The clouds will disappear,
The door to happiness will open wide.
But I don't want to see tomorrow,
Unless you're there by my side.

Don't want to walk alone,
Don't want to dream alone,
Just want you close to my heart.
For if your love is gone,
How can I face the dawn of
Sunday, or Monday?
I just can't face one day...

Until you say you're mine,
Oh, darling, please be mine
And make each bright tomorrow young and new.
But I don't want to face tomorrow
Unless I see it with you.

(Tomorrow, so I hear
The clouds will disappear,
The door to happiness will open wide.)
But I don't want to see tomorrow,
Unless I see it with you.

"I Keep Going Back To Joe's"

"I Keep Going Back To Joe's"

I keep goin' back to Joe's
To that table in the corner,
Sippin' wine and staring at the door.
Our old waiter knows we're through,
Still he sets a place for you
Everything the way it was before.

I keep goin' back to Joe's,
But the man who plays piano
Never plays your favorite melody.
Joe keeps busy at the bar,
Never asks me where you are.
He was there when you walked out on me.

Now I pray you'll walk back in,
And you'll say what fools we've been,
And we'll celebrate a happy new beginning.
Chances are you'll never show,
But you'll know just where to find me
Every night until it's time to close.

Just in case you miss me, too,
I'll be there to welcome you.
That's why I keep going back...
That's why I keep goin' back...
To Joe's.

"I Know That You Know"

"I Know That You Know"

I know that you know
That I'll go where you go
I choose you, won't lose you
I wish you knew how much I long
To hold you in my arms

This time is my time
Will soon be goodbye time
Then in the star light, hold me tight
With one more little kiss
Say, nighty night

I know that you know
That I'll go where you go
I choose you, won't lose you
I wish you knew how much I long
To hold you in my arms

This time is my time
Will soon be goodbye time
Then in the star light, hold me tight
With one more little kiss
Say, nighty night

"I Saw Three Ships"

"I Saw Three Ships"

I saw three ships come sailing in
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day
I saw three ships come sailing in
On Christmas Day in the morning
On Christmas Day in the morning

And what was in those ships all three
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day?
And what was in those ships all three
On Christmas Day in the morning?
On Christmas Day in the morning

The Virgin Mary and Christ were there
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day
The Virgin Mary and Christ were there
On Christmas Day in the morning

And all the Angels in Heaven shall sing
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day
And all the Angels in Heaven shall sing
On Christmas Day in the morning

Then let us all rejoice again
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day
Then let us all rejoice again
On Christmas Day in the morning
On Christmas Day in the morning

"I Was A Little Too Lonely (And You Were A Little Too Late)"

"I Was A Little Too Lonely (And You Were A Little Too Late)"

You promised me you'd come back,
I promised to wait.
But I was a little too lonely,
And you were a little too late.

Too many long nights alone,
Not even a date.
So I got a little too lonely,
And you were a little too late.

You never did write, you never did call.
When I had the blues, you were havin' a ball.
You thought that I'd be here to run to,
Now I'm gonna do to you what I've been done to.

Too bad about you, my friend,
It could've been great.
But I was a little too lonely,
And now you're a little too late.

You never did write, you never did call.
When I had the blues, you were havin' a ball.
You thought that I'd be here to run to,
Now I'm gonna do to you what I've been done to.

Too bad about you, my friend,
It could've been great.
But I got a little too lonely,
And you were a little too late!

"I'll String Along With You"

"I'll String Along With You"

All my life I've waited for an angel
But no angel ever came along
Then one happy afternoon I met you
And my heart began to sing a song
Somehow, I mistook you for an angel
But now I'm glad that I was wrong

You may not be an angel
'Cause angels are so few
But until the day that one comes along
I'll string along with you

I'm looking for an angel
To sing my love song to
And until the day that one comes along
I'll sing my song to you

For every little fault that you have
Say, I've got three or four

The human little faults that you do have
Just make me love you more

You may not be an angel
But still I'm sure you'll do

So until the day that one comes along
I'll string along with you

For every little fault that you have
Say, I've got three or four

The human little faults you do have,
Just make me love you more

Because you're such an angel
That's why I'm sure you'll do
So until the day that one comes along
I know just what I'll do

I'll string along with you

"I'm A Shy Guy"

"I'm A Shy Guy"

I'm just a shy guy,
My, I'm a 'fraid-to-try guy
No lie.
There's a gal that I idolize
But I just can't seem to hypnotize.

And when she pets me,
You betcha, it gets me.
And everytime I hold her hand,
I'm just too shy to say the things I plan.

Everytime she's close to me,
My heart is filled with ecstasy,
And like a dope, I let the chance slip by.

There, I should have told her then
But all I did was sit and grin,
And I ended up so mad that I could cry.

'Cause I'm a shy guy
Wish I was a sly guy
Then I could say, "Baby, baby, I love you"
Just like those guys in moving pictures all do.

I'm just a shy guy
Wish I was a sly guy
Then I could say, "Baby, baby, I love you"
Just like those guys in moving pictures all do.

"I'm Alone Because I Love You"

"I'm Alone Because I Love You"

I'm alone because I love you
Love you with all my heart
I'm alone because I had to be true
Sorry, I can't say the same about you

Yesterday's kisses are bringing me pain
Yesterday's sunshine has turned into rain
I'm alone because I love you
Love you with all my heart

I'm alone because I love you
Love you with all my heart

"I'm Gonna Sit Right Down (And Write Myself A Letter)"

"I'm Gonna Sit Right Down (And Write Myself A Letter)"

(F. Ahlert, J. Young)

I'm gonna sit right down
And write myself a letter,
And make believe it came from you.
I'm gonna write words oh, so sweet
They're gonna knock me off of my feet,
A lot of kisses on the bottom,
I'll be glad I got 'em.

I'm gonna smile and say,
"I hope you're feeling better,"
And close with love, the way that you do.
I'm gonna sit right down
And write myself a letter,
And make believe it came from you.

I'm gonna sit right down
And write myself a letter,
And make believe that it came from you.
I'm gonna write words oh, so sweet, yeah!

Lotta kisses on the bottom,
I'll be glad I got 'em.
I'm gonna smile and say,
"I hope you're feeling better,"
And close with love, the way that you do.

I'm gonna sit right down
And write myself a letter,
And make believe it came from you...

I'm gonna sit right down
And write myself a letter,
And make believe it came,
Make believe that it came from you!

"I'm In The Mood For Love"

"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?
We've 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
