"You Are Never Far Away From Me"

"You Are Never Far Away From Me"



You are never far away from me,
When we part I hold your memory!
You linger in my dreams,
When day has flown...
And through the lonely night,
I'm not alone!

When two sweethearts care, as you and I,

There's no sadness in the word, good-bye!
Because you're always in my heart my love,
Wherever I may be,
You are never far away from me!

"You Came A Long Way From St. Louis"

"You Came A Long Way From St. Louis"


You came a long way from St. Louis,
You climbed the ladder of success . . .
I've seen the flashy foreign cars
That were parked out in front of
Your fancy address!

You came a long way from St. Louis,
You broke a lot of hearts between . . .
I've met a gang of gloomy guys
Who were doin' all right
'Till you came on the scene!

You blew in from the middle-west
And certainly impressed
The population here-abouts . . .
Well baby, I got news for you,
I'm from Missouri too,
So, naturally, I got my doubts!

You got 'em droppin' by the way-side,
A feelin' I ain't gonna know . . .
You came a long way from St. Louis,
But baby, you still got a long way to go!

[instrumental break]

My, how you come up!
Hmmm, you really come on!

[instrumental break]

Hey, I'll have your address!
St. Louis woman,
You're a St. Louis doll!

[instrumental break]

You blew in from the middle-west
And certainly impressed
The population here-abouts . . .
Well baby, I've got news for you,
I'm from Missouri too,
So, naturally, I got my doubts!

You got 'em droppin' by the way-side,
A feelin' I ain't gonna know . . .
You came a long way from St. Louis,
But baby, you still got a long way to go!

You left St. Louis far behind,
Keep this little thought in mind,
You still . . . got a long way to go!

"You Do Something To Me"

"You Do Something To Me"



You do somethin' to me,
Somethin' that simply mystifies me,
Tell me, why should it be?
You have the power to hypnotize me...

Let me live 'neath your spell,
Do do that 'voodoo' that you do so well!
For you do somethin' to me,
That nobody else could do!

You... do... somethin' to me,
Somethin' that simply mystifies me,

Tell... me... why should it be?
You have the power to hypnotize me...

Let me live 'neath your spell,
Do do that 'voodoo' that you do so well!
For you do somethin' to me,
That nobody else could do!

That nobody else could do...

"You Made Me Love You"

"You Made Me Love You"



You made me love you,
I didn't wanna to do it, I didn't wanna do it,
You made me want you, and all the time you knew it,
I guess you always knew it,
You made me happy, sometimes you made me glad,
But there were times, dear, you made me feel so bad...

You made me sigh for,
I didn't wanna tell you, didn't wanna tell you,

I want some love that's true, yes I do,
'Deed I do, you know I do,
Gimmy, gimmy me what I cry for,
You made me happy, sometimes you made me glad,
You know you got the brand of kisses that I die for,
You know you made me love you!

"You Make Me Feel So Young"

"You Make Me Feel So Young"


(So young!...
So young!... So young!...)

You make me feel so young,
You make me feel so Spring has sprung!
And every time I see you grin,
I'm such a happy, individual!

The moment that you speak,
I wanna go play hide an' seek!
I wanna go an' bounce the moon,
Just like a toy balloon!

You and I...
Are just like a couple of tots!
Runnin' across the meadow...
An' pickin' up lots of forget-me-nots!

You make me feel so young,
You make me feel there are songs to be sung...
Bells to be rung,
An' a wonderful fling to be flung!

And even when I'm old an' grey...
(And even when I'm old an' grey...)
I'm gonna feel the way I do today!
('Cause you...)
You make me feel so young!

[instrumental verse]

And even when I'm old an' grey...
(And even when I'm old an' grey...)
I'm gonna feel the way I do today!
('Cause you...)
You make me feel so young!

You make me feel so young!
(So Young!)

"You Must Have Been A Beautiful Baby"

"You Must Have Been A Beautiful Baby"


You must have been a beautiful baby,
you must have been a wonderful child...
When you were only startin'
to go to kindergarten
I bet you drove the little boys wild!

An' when it came to winning blue ribbons,
you must have shown the other kids how...
I can see the judge's eyes as they handed you the prize
I bet you made the cutest bow!

Oh!, You must have been a beautiful baby,
'cause baby look at you now...

[instrumental]

Does your dad appreciate
that you are merely great?
Does your mother realize
you're such a treat for the eyes?

You must have been a beautiful baby,
you must have been a wonderful child...
When you were only startin'
to go to kindergarten
I bet you drove the little boys wild!

An' when it came to winning blue ribbons,
you must have shown the other kids how...
I can see the judge's eyes as they handed you the prize
I bet you made the cutest bow!

Oh!, You must have been a beautiful baby,
'cause baby look at you now... (she's a cutie!)
baby look at you now...

"You Won't Be Satisfied"

"You Won't Be Satisfied"



You Won't Be Satisfied (Until You Break My Heart)
You won't be satisfied until you break my heart,
You're never satisfied until the teardrops start!
I tried to shower you with love and kisses,
But all I ever get from you is,
Naggin' and braggin'...
My poor heart is saggin'...

The way you toss my heard around's a cryin' shame,
I'll bet you wouldn't like it if I did the same!
You're only happy tearin' all my dreams apart,
Oh you won't be satisfied until you break my heart!

You won't be satisfied until you break my heart,
You're never satisfied until the teardrops start!
I tried to shower you with love and kisses,
But all I ever get is,

You won't be satisfied until you break my heart,
You're never satisfied until the teardrops start!
I tried to shower you with love and kisses,

My poor heart is saggin'...

The way you toss my heard around's a cryin' shame,
I'll bet you wouldn't like it if I did the same!
You're only happy tearin' all my dreams apart...
It doesn't seem fair (those little white lies)
But you don't seem to care (and now I realize)
You won't be satisfied,
Until you've broken my heart!

"You're Just In Love"

"You're Just In Love"



I hear singing and there's no one there
I smell blossoms and the trees are bare
All day long I seem to walk on air
I wonder why, I wonder why
I keep tossing in my sleep at night
And what's more I've lost my appetite
Stars that used to twinkle in the skies
Are twinkling in my eyes I wonder why

(You don't need analyzing
It is not so surprising
That you feel very strange but nice
Your heart goes pitter patter
I know just what's the matter
Because I've been there once or twice
Put your head on my shoulder
You need someone who's older
A rub down with a velvet glove
There is nothing you can take
To relieve that pleasant ache
You're not sick, you're just in love)

We're just in love

"Young At Heart"

"Young At Heart"


[instrumental verse]

Fairy tales can come true,
It can happen to you,
If you're young at heart!

(Young at heart!)

For it's hard you will find
To be narrow of mind,
If you're young at heart!

(Young at heart!)

You can go to extremes,
With impossible schemes,
You can laugh when your dreams
Fall apart at the seams...

And life gets more exciting,
With each passing day,
An' love is either in your heart,
Or, on the way!

Don't you know that it's worth,
Every treasure on earth,
To be young at heart!

(Young at heart!)

For as rich as you are,
It's much better by far,
To be young at heart!

(Young at heart!)

And if you should survive,
To a hundred an' five,
Look at all you'll derive
Outta bein' alive!

And here is the best part,
You have a head start...
If you are among,
The very young at heart!

(Don't you know that it's worth,
Every treasure on earth,
To be young at heart!
For as rich as you are,
It's much better by far,
To be young at heart!)

And if you should survive,
To a hundred an' five,
Look at all you'll derive
Outta bein' alive!

And here is the best part,
You have a head start...
If you are among,
The very young...
at heart!
