"Make It Easy On Yourself"

"Make It Easy On Yourself"



Just tell me that we're through

And make it easy on yourself
Make it easy on yourself
'Cause breaking up is so very hard to do

And if the way I hold you
Can't compare to his caress
No words of consolation
Will make me miss you less

My darling, if this is goodbye
I just know I'm gonna die
So run to him
Before, before you start to cry

And make it easy on yourself
Make it easy on yourself
'Cause breaking up is so very hard to do

Make it easy on yourself
Make it easy on yourself
'Cause breaking up is so very hard to do
Breaking up is so very hard to do

Very hard to do Elfie

"Make Someone Happy"

"Make Someone Happy"



Make someone happy,
Make just one someone happy.
Make just one heart the heart you sing to.
One smile that cheers you,
One face that lights when it nears you.
One gal you're everything to.

Fame, if you win it,
Comes and goes in a minute.
Where's the real stuff in life to cling to?
Love is the answer,
Someone to love is the answer.
Once you've found her,
Build your world around her.
Make someone happy.
Make just one someone happy
And you will be happy too.

"Mam'selle"

"Mam'selle"



It was Montmartre
It was midnight
Come to think of it
It was spring
There was music
I was listening
Then in the room somewhere someone began to sing
This melody made for remembering

A small cafe, mam'selle
Our rendezvous, mam'selle
The violins were warm and sweet and so were you, mam'selle
And as the night danced by
A kiss became a sigh
Your lovely eyes
Seem to sparkle just like wine does
No heart ever yearned the way that mine does, for you
And yet I know too well
Someday we'll say goodbye
Then violins will cry
And so will I, mam'selle.

"Man That Got Away"

"Man That Got Away"



The night is bitter.
The stars have lost their glitter.
The winds grow colder and suddenly you're older.
And all because of the man that got away.

No more his eager call.
The writing's on the wall.
Dreams have all gone astray.

The man that won you
Has run off and undone you.
That great beginning
Has seen the final inning.
I don't know what happened.
It's all a crazy game.

No more that old time thrill.
Cuz you've been through the mill.
And never a new love will be the same.

Good riddance, goodbye.
Every trick of his you're on to.
But fools will be fools and where's he gone to?

The road gets rougher.
It's lonelier and tougher
With hope you burn up
Tomorrow he may turn up.
There's just no let up
The live long night at day.

Ever since this world began
There is nothing sadder than
A one-man woman lookin' for the man that got away.
The man that got away.

"Manhattan"

"Manhattan"



Summer journeys
To Niag'ra
And to other places
Aggravate all our cares.
We'll save our fares.
I've a cozy little flat
In what is known as old Manhattan.
We'll settle down
Right here in town.

We'll have Manhattan,
The Bronx and Staten
Island too.
It's lovely going through
The zoo.
It's very fancy
On old Delancey
Street, you know.
The subway charms us so
When balmy breezes blow
To and fro.
And tell me what street
Compares with Mott Street
In July?
Sweet pushcarts gently gliding by.
The great big city's a wondrous toy
Just made for a girl and boy.
We'll turn Manhattan
Into an isle of joy.

"Marry Young"

"Marry Young"



Heaven bless people who marry young
Though I guess that if you marry young
You can stumble and fall ‘til you stand
But at least you stumble hand in hand
Never mind what they say, marry young
While its spring and the song is trembling to be sung
Let it slip off the tip of your tongue:
“I love you, you love me, people do, why don’t we marry young?”

"Maybe September"

"Maybe September"



Maybe September
I'll love again
Maybe a rainbow
Will catch me then
This little boy lost
Will find his way once more
Just like before
When lips were tender

The shade of a willow
Where love was born
A face on a pillow
In early morn
I still see that golden world
In all it's splendor
Maybe September
Love will come again

A taller tree, a sweeter log
A bluer morning sky above
And maybe come September
I’ll share these wonders
With my love

"Maybe This Time"

"Maybe This Time"



Maybe this time, I'll be lucky
Maybe this time she'll stay
Maybe this time, for the first time
Love won't wander away

She's gonna hold me fast
And I'll be home at last
Not a loser anymore
Not like the last time, and the time before

Everybody loves a winner
But nobody loves me
Mr. Peaceful, Mr. Happy
That's what I want to be

All of the odds are, in my favor
Something's bound to begin
It's gotta happen, happen sometime
Maybe this time I'll win

"Me, Myself And I"

"Me, Myself And I"



Me, myself and I
Are all in love with you
We all think you're wonderful
We do

Me, myself and I
Have just one point of view
We're convinced
There's no one else like you

It can't be denied dear
You brought the sun to us
We'd be satisfied dear
If you'd belong to one of us

So if you pass me by
Three hearts will break in two
Cause me, myself and I
Are all in love with you

Yes, it can't be denied dear
You brought the sun to us
We'd be satisfied dear
If you'd belong to one of us

So if you pass me by
Three hearts will break in two
Cause me, myself and I
Are all in love with you

"Minha (All Mine)"

"Minha (All Mine)"



All mine
You'll be all mine
Once I find you
Once I reach you
Your face, how it haunts me
Your arms, will they want me?
Will you know me?
What surprises will you show me?
I have young arms
I have old dreams
Warm as sunlight
Soft as moonbeams
And they told me
Come tomorrow
You will hold me
Is there something in the misty night
that keeps you from my lips?
How long will we be lonely people
Moving like two passing ships?
From the moment of your birth
You are my destiny on Earth
And I know well what love is worth
Sure as leaves fall
And the stars shine
You will soon be always, always, always, all mine
