"It Was Me"

"It Was Me"



Who’s the one would find on the beach every day
Lying there on the shore while his friends swim away
Lying there in the sand only inches from you
Watching you every day ‘til the summer was through
It was me

Who would help gather shells for the bracelet you made
Who would find you the cups for the pink lemonade?
Who was always beside you whenever you’d swim?
When you sat by the sea as the daylight could end?
It was me, it was me

Now that summer is gone and the warm skies are cold
And the soft winds are crisp with their wintry chill
Do you ever think back on the night when we kissed?
Can you ever forget? I know I never will
Who’s the one next to you in the group photograph?
Who’s the one with the face too unhappy to laugh?
Standing there looking down so uncertain and shy
Like a boy who’s in love, so in love he could cry
It was me, it was me

Me finding out it was you

"It's A Sin To Tell A Lie"

"It's A Sin To Tell A Lie"



Be sure it's true when you say
"I love you"
It's a sin to tell a lie
Millions of hearts have been broken
Just because one word was spoken

I love you
Yes I do
I love you
If you break my heart I'll die
So be sure that it's true when you say
"I love you"
It's sin to tell a lie

"It's Magic"

"It's Magic"



Why do I tell myself these things that happen
Are all really true
When in my heart I know
The magic is my love for you

You sign the song begins
You speak and I hear violins, it's magic
The stars, desert the skies
And rush to nestle in your eyes, it's magic

Without a golden wand or mystic charms
Fantastic things begin when I am in your arms

When we walk hand in hand
The world becomes a wonderland, it's magic
How else can I explain those rainbows
When there ain't no rain, it's magic

Why do I tell me myself
These things that happen are all really true
When in my heart
I know the magic is my love for you

Magic, magic, magic, magic

"It's Only A Paper Moon"

"It's Only A Paper Moon"



It's only a paper moon
Sailin' over a cardboard sea
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me

Yes, it's only a canvas sky
Hangin' over a muslin tree
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me

Without your love
It's a honky tonk parade
Without your love
It's a melody played in a penny arcade

It's a Barnum and Bailey world
Just as phony as it can be
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me

Without your love
It's a honky-tonk parade
Without your love
It's a melody played in a penny arcade

It's a Barnum and Bailey world
Just as phony as it can be
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me

"Judy"

"Judy"



If her voice can bring
Every hope of the spring
That’s Judy, my Judy

If her eyes say “Yes”
But you’re wrong in your guess
That’s Judy, my Judy

If you hear her call
In a soft, southern drawl
“Hi, stranger”, that’s danger

If you’re smart
Watch your heart
She’ll upset most
Any fellow’s apple cart

In a hundred ways
You’ll be shouting her praise
She’ll let ya, I mean she’ll get ya

When she sees you fall
She will tell you, “That’s all
You wretch ya”, you bet ya

Then you’ll know
All the heartaches
Of a fool just like me

If she see seems a saint
And you find that she ain’t
That’s Judy, sure as you’re born

"Just Friends"

"Just Friends"



Just friends
Lovers no more
Just friends
But not like before
To think of what we've been
And not to kiss again
It seems like pretending
It isn't the ending
Two friends
Drifting apart
Two friends
But one broken heart
We loved we laughed we cried
And suddenly love died
The story ends
And we're
Just friends

"Just In Time"
(feat. Michael Buble)

"Just In Time"
(feat. Michael Buble)



Just in time, I found you just in time
Before you came, my time was runnin' low
I was lost, the losin' dice were tossed
My bridges all were crossed, nowhere to go
Now you're here and now I know just where I'm goin'
No more doubt or fear, I found my way
For love came just in time
You found me just in time
And changed my lonely life that lovely day

Mm, I was lost, the losin' dice were tossed
My bridges all were crossed, nowhere to go
Now you're here and now I know just where I'm goin'
No more doubt or fear, I found my way
For love came just in time
You found me just in time
And changed my lonely life that lovely day

"Just In Time"


Just in time
You found me just in time
Before you came my time
Was running low
I was lost
The losing dice were tossed
My bridges all were crossed
Nowhere to go

Now you're here
And now I know just where I'm going
No more doubts or fears
I found my way

'Cause love came just in time
You found me just in time
Then you changed my lonely life
That lovely day

Now you're here
And now I know just where I'm going
No more doubts or fears
I found my way

'Cause love came just in time
You found me just in time
Then you changed my lonely life
That lovely day

You changed my lonely life
That lovely day

[LIVE AT CARNEGIE HALL (1962):]

I was resting comfortably, face down in the gutter
Life was serene, I knew where I was at
"There's no hope for him," my dearest friends would mutter
I was something dragged in by the cat. And then ...

Just in time, I found you just in time
Before you came my time was running low
I was lost, the losing dice were tossed
My bridges all were crossed, nowhere to go

Now you're here and now I know just where I'm going
No more doubt or fear, I found my way
For love came just in time, you found me just in time
And changed my lonely life that lovely day
You changed my lonely life that lovely day

"Just One Of Those Things"

"Just One Of Those Things"



It was just one of those things
Just one of those crazy flings
One of those bells that now and then rings
Just one of those things

It was just one of those nights
Just one of those fabulous flights
A trip to the moon on gossamer wings
Just one of those things

If we'd thought a bit, of the end of it
When we started to paint that town
We'd have been aware that our love affair
Was too hot, not to cool down

So good-bye, dear, and amen
Here's hoping we meet now and then
It was great fun
But it was just one of those things

So good-bye, dear, and amen
Here's hoping we meet now and then
It was great fun
But it was just one of those things

It was great fun
But it was just one of those things

One of those things

"Keep Smiling At Trouble"

"Keep Smiling At Trouble"



When you’ve learned that life
Is what you make it
Then you know the secret of it all

Find your share of happiness
And take it
Make life a song
As you go along

Keep smiling at trouble
For trouble’s a bubble
And bubbles will soon go away

With never a sadness
And nothing but gladness
We’d weary of life in a day

Be like the violets that doze ‘neath the chilled winter snows
They bravely wait for the May

So keep smiling at trouble
For trouble’s a bubble
And bubbles will soon go away

So keep smiling at trouble
For trouble’s a bubble
And bubbles will soon go away

And bubbles will soon go away
