When life seems full of clouds and rain
And i am filled with naught but pain
Who soothe my thumping, bumping brain
Nobody
When winter comes with snow and sleet
And me with hunger and cold feet
Who says, "here's two bites, go and eat!"?
Nobody
You know that i ain't never done nothin' to nobody
I ain't never got nothin' from nobody, no time
And until i get somethin' from somebody, sometime
I don't intend to do nothin for nobody, no time

Jerome kern / otto harbach

Yesterdays
Days are new as happy sweet
Sequestered days
Olden days
Golden days
Days of mad romance and love
Them gay youth was mine
Truth was mine
Join us be in flame and live
Then sooth was mine
Sad and mired
Glad and mired
For today i'm dreamin' of
Yesterdays

Billie holiday / mal waldron

Where's the love that's made to fill my heart?
Where's the one from whom i'll never part?
First they hurt me, then desert me
I'm left alone, all alone

There's no house that i can call my home
There's no place from which i'll never roam
Town or city, it's a pity
I'm left alone, all alone

Seek and find they always say
But up to now it's not that way
Maybe fate has let him pass me by
Or perhaps we'll meet before i die
Hearts will open, but until then

I'm left alone, all alone

Harold arlen / johnny mercer

I'm gonna love you like nobody's loved you come rain or come shine
High as a mountain and deep as a river come rain or come shine
I guess when you met me it was just one of those things
But don't ever bet me cause i'm gonna be true if you let me

You're gonna love me like nobody's loved me come rain or come shine
Happy together unhappy together and won't it be fine?
Days may be cloudy or sunny
We're in or we're out of the money

But i'm with you always, i'm with you rain or shine

I'm gonna love you like nobody's loved you come rain or come shine
High as a mountain deep as a river come rain or come shine
I guess when you met me it was just one of those things
But don't ever bet me cause i'm gonna be true if you let me

You're gonna love me like nobody's loved me come rain or come shine
Happy together unhappy together and won't it be fine?
Days may be cloudy or sunny
We're in or we're out of the money.

But i'll love you always, i'm with you rain or shine

Rain or shine.

Richard rodgers / lorenz hart

I'm a sentimental sap, that's all,
What's the use of trying not to fall?
I have no will, you've made your kill
'cause you took advantage of me.
I'm just like an apple on a bough
And you're gonna shake me down somehow,
So what's the use, you've cooked my goose
'cause you took advantage of me.
I'm so hot and bothered that i don't know
My elbow from my ear.
I suffer something awful each time you go
And much worse when you're near.
Here i am with all my bridges burned,
Just a babe in arms where you're concerned,
So lock the doors and call me yours
'cause you took advantage of me.

Richard rodgers / lorenz hart

Blue moon,
You saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love on my own.

Blue moon,
You knew just what i was there for
You heard me saying a prayer for
Somebody i realy could care for.

And then there suddenly appeared before me,
The only one my arms will ever hold
I heard somebody whisper, "please adore me."
And when i looked,
The moon had turned to gold.

Blue moon,
Now i'm lo longer alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own.

Isham jones / gus kahn

Why do i do, just as you say
Why must i just, give you your way
Why do i sigh, why don't i try - to forget

It must have been, that something lovers call fate
Kept me saying: "i have to wait"
I saw them all, just couldn't fall - 'til we met

It had to be you, it had to be you
I wandered around, and finally found - the somebody who
Could make me be true, and could make me be blue
And even be glad, just to be sad - thinking of you

Some others i've seen, might never be mean
Might never be cross, or try to be boss
But they wouldn't do
For nobody else, gave me a thrill - with all your faults, i love you still
It had to be you, wonderful you
It had to be you

Harry warren / johnny mercer

Jeepers, creepers, where'd ya get those peepers,
Jeepers, creepers, where'd ya get those eyes?
Gosh all, git up, how'd they get so lit up,
Gosh all, git up, how'd they get that size?
Golly gee! when you turn those heaters on
Woe is me, got to put my cheaters on.
Jeepers, creepers, where'd ya get those peepers?
Oh, those weepers, how they hypnotize!
Where'd ya get those eyes?

Einar aaron swan

What good is the scheming, the planning and dreaming
That comes with each new love affair
The dreams that we cherish, so often might perish
And leaves you with castles in air

When you're alone, who cares for starlit skies
When you're alone, the magic moonlight dies
At break of dawn, there is no sunrise
When your lover has gone

What lonely hours, the evening shadows bring
What lonely hours, with memories lingering
Like faded flowers, life can't mean anything
When your lover has gone

Charles trenet (jack lawrence)

Somewhere beyond the sea
Somewhere waiting for me
My lover stands on golden sands
And watches the ships that go sailing

Somewhere beyond the sea
He's watching for me
If i could fly like birds on high
Then straigt to his arms i'd go sailing
It's far beyond a star, it's near beyond the moon
I know beyond a doubt
My heart will lead me there soon

We'll meet beyond the shore
We'll kiss just as before
Happy we'll be beyond the sea
And never again i'll go sailing
Some sailing

Burton lane / harold adamson

Everything i have is yours
You are part of me
Everything i have is yours
My destiny

I would gladly give the sun to you
If the sun were only mine
I would gladly give the earth to you
And the stars that shine
Everything that i posses
I offer you

Let my dream of happyness
Come through
I'll be happy just to spent my life
Waiting at your backend call
Everything i have is yours
My life
My all

Everything i have is yours
You are part of me
Everything i have is yours
My destiny

I would gladly give the sun to you
If the sun were only mine
I would gladly give the earth to you
And the stars that shine
Everything that i posses
I offer to you

Let my dream of happyness
Come through
I'll be happy just to spent my life
Waiting at your backend call
Everything i have is yours
My life
My all

Billie holiday / buster harding

Break down the door
Chop up the floor
Kick out the ceilin'
And anything more
But, baby, please don't do it in here

Kick off the roof
Break out the panes
Smash in the walls
And bust out your brains
But, baby, please don't do it in here

Took me years to get my path straight
I'm gonna keep it that way
Don't intend to have it torn up
Listen to what i say
So take all the money
Steal all the clothes
Shoot off your pistol
Cause anything goes
But, baby, please don't do it in here

Ted koehler / harold arlen

Don't know why there's no sun up in the sky
Stormy weather
Since my man and i ain't together,
Keeps rainin' all the time

Life is bare, gloom and mis'ry everywhere
Stormy weather
Just can't get my poorself together,
I'm weary all the time
So weary all the time
When he went away the blues walked in and met me.
If he stays away old rockin' chair will get me.

All i do is pray the lord above will let me walk in the sun once more.
Can't go on, ev'ry thing i had is gone
Stormy weather

Since my man and i ain't together,
Keeps rainin' all the time

Herb magidson / allie wrubel

My blue horizon is turning gray
And my dreams are drifting away
Your eyes don't shine like they used to shine
And the thrill is gone when your lips meet mine

I'm affraid the masquerade is over
And so is love, and so is love
Your love and so is love
I guess i'll have to play pagliacci and get myself a clown's disguise
And learn to laugh like pagliacci with tears in my eyes
You look the same
You're a lot the same
But my heart says "no, no, you're not the same"

I'm affraid the masquerade is over
And so is love, and so is love
Your words don't mean what they used to me
They were once inspired, now they're just routine
I'm affraid the masquerade is over

Will hudson / edgar delange / irving mills

It must have been that moonglow
Way up in the blue
It must have been moonglow
That led me straight to you
I still hear you saying
"dear one, hold me fast"
And i start in praying
Oh lord, please let this last
We seemed to float right thru the air
Heavenly songs seemed to come from ev'ry where
And now when there's moonglow
Way up in the blue
I always remember that moonglow gave you me

Matt dennis / tom adair

Black cats creep across my path
Until i'm almost mad
I must have 'roused the devil's wrath
'cause all my luck is bad
I make a date for golf and you can bet your life it rains
I try to give a party and the guy upstairs complains
I guess i'll go thru life kust catchin colds and missin' trains

Everything happens to me
I never miss a thing
I've had the measels and the mumps
And every time i play an ace
My partner always trumps
Guess i'm just a fool who never looks before he jumps

Everything happens to me
At first my heart tho't you could break this jinx for me
That love would turn the trick to end despair
But know i just can't fool this head that thinks for me
I've mortgaged all my castlesin the air
I've telegraphed and phoned
I send an 'airmail special' too
Your answer was 'goodbye'
And there was even postage due
I fell in love just once
And then it had to be with you

Everything happens to me

Sigmund romberg / oscar hammerstein ii

You went away
I let you
We broke the ties that bind
I wanted to forget you
And leave the past behind
Still, the magic if the night i met you
Seems to stay forever in my mind

The sky was blue
And high above
The moon was new
And so was love
This eager heart of mine was singing
Lover where can you be
You came at last
Love had its day
That day is past
You've gone away
This aching heart of mine is singing
Lover come back to me
When i remember every little thing
You used to do
I'm so lonely
Every road i walk along
I walk along with you
No wonder i am lonely
The sky is blue
The night is cold
The moon is new
But love is old
And while i'm waiting here
This heart of mine is singing
Lover come back to me
When i remember every little thing
You used to do
I grow lonely
Every road i walk along
I walk along with you
No wonder i am lonely
The sky is blue
The night is cold
The moon is new
But love is old
And while i'm waiting here
This heart of mine is singing
Lover come back to me

Johnny mercer / richard whiting

You're just to marvelous
Too marvelous for words
Like glorious, glamorous
And that old standby amorous

It's all too wonderful
I'll never find the phrase
That says enough, tells enough
I mean just aren't swell enough

You're much too much, and just too very very
To ever be, to ever be in the dictionary
And so i'm borrowing a love song from the birds
To tell you that you're marvelous
Too marvelous for words

Paul coates / bernie hanighen

If you were mine
I could be a ruler of kings
And if you were mine
I could do such wonderful things
I'd say to a star
Stop where you are
Light up my lover's way
And every star above you
Would obey, say
If you were mine
I would live for your love alone
To kneel at your shrine
I would give up all that i own
Yes even my heart
Even my life
I'd trade it all for you
And think i was lucky too
If you were mine

Victor p. young / bing crosby / ned washington

I need your love so badly
I love you oh so madly
But i don't stand a ghost of a chance with you
I thought at last i found you
But other loves surround you
And i don't stand a ghost of a chance with you
If you'd surrender
Just for a tender
Kiss or two
You might discover
That i'm the lover
Meant for you
And i'd be true
But what's the good of scheming
I'm dreaming
For i don't stand a ghost of a chance with you
Cuz i don't stand
A ghost of a chance
With you

Jack lawrence / milton ager

If your heart's in doubt, my love
Worried about my love
Then all your fear
Is only foolish fancy, dear
If i didn't care more than words can say
If i didn't care would i feel this way?
If this isn't love
Then maybe i'm wrong
But why do i lie awake all night
And dream all day long?
If i didn't care would it be the same?
Would every prayer begin and end with just your name?
And would i be sure that this is love beyond compare?
Would all this be true
If i didn't care for you?

Appetizing, young love for sale.

Who will like to sample my supply?
Who's prepared to pay the price for a trip to paradise?
Love for sale.

Let the poets pipe of love in their childish way.
I know every type of love better far than they.
If you want the thrill of love i've been through the mid'l of love.

Appetizing young love for sale.
If you want to buy my wares, follow me and climb the stairs.

Irving berlin

How can i tell you what is in my heart?
How can i measure each and every part?
How can i tell you how much i love you?
How can i measure just how much i do?

How much do i love you?
I'll tell you no lie
How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?

How many times a day do i think of you?
How many roses are sprinkled with dew?

How far would i travel
To be where you are?
How far is the journey
From here to a star?

And if i ever lost you
How much would i cry?
How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?

Charles warfield / clarence williams

Baby won't you please come home
'cause your daddy's all alone
I have tried in vain
Never no more to call your name

When you left you broke my heart
Because i never thought we'd part
Every hour in the day
You will hear me say:
- "baby come home"

any old time you want me
I am yours for the asking darling
Any old time you need me
Ill be their with love thats lasting darling.
All through the years well stand together
Sharing the tears and stormy weather
And the sunshine will be yours and mine
Any old time your blue
Youll have our love to chase away the blues
And any old thing you do ill see you through.
So just remember that i am waiting dear
If ever you want me ill be near,
Any old time and any place you may be.

Herman hupfeld

You must remember this
A kiss is still a kiss
A sigh is just a sigh
The fundamental things apply
As time goes by
And when two lovers woo
They still say i love you
On that you can rely
No matter what the future brings
As time goes by

Moonlight and lovesongs
Never out of date
Hearts filled with passion
Jealousy and hate
Woman needs man
And man must have his mate
That no one can deny
It's still the same old story
A fight for love and glory
A case of do or die
Though i will always welcome lovers
As time goes by

Moonlight and lovesongs
Never out of date
Hearts filled with passion
Jealousy and hate
Woman needs man
And man must have his mate
That no one can deny
It's still the same old story
A fight for love and glory
A case of do or die
Though i will always welcome lovers
As time goes by

Al dubin / harry warren

My love must be a kind of blind love,
I can't see anyone but you
And dear, i wonder if you find love,
An optical illusion, too?
Are the stars out tonight?
I don't know if it's cloudy or bright cause i only
Have eyes for you.
The moon may be high,
But i can't see a thing in the sky,
Cause i only have eyes for you.
I don't know if we're in a garden,
Or on a crowded avenue.
You are here, so am i.
Maybe millions of people go by but they all disappear from view,
And i only have eyes for you.

Ann ronell

Willow weep for me
Willow weep for me
Bent your branches down along the ground and cover me
Listen to my plea
Hear me willow and weep for me
Gone my lovely dreams
Lovely summer dreams
Gone and left me here
To wheep my tears along the stream
Sad as i can be
Hear me willow and weep for me
Whisper to the wind and say thay love has sinned
To leave my heart a sign
And crying alone
Murmur to the night
Hide her starry light
So none will find me sighing
Crying all alone
Wheeping willow tree
Wheeping sympathy
Bent your branches down along the ground and cover me
Listen to me plee
Hear me willow and weep for me
Willow
Willow
Wheep for me

Peter tinturin

What shall i say
When our neighbours want us to come to tea?
They don't know you're not with me
What shall i say?

What shall i say
When the phone rings and someone asks for you
They don't know i ask for you too
What shall i say?

How can i hide the tears inside
How can i face the crowd?
I can,make lips of mine be still
But my heart sighs too loud

I could explain that
You're only gone for a walk to shop
But after the week is up
What shall i say?

Dorothy fields / jimmy mchugh

Grab your coat and get your hat
Leave your worry on the doorstep
Just direct your feet
To the sunny side of the street

Can't you hear a pitter-pat
And that happy tune is your step
Life can be so sweet
On the sunny side of the street

I used to walk in the shade
With those blues on parade
But now i'm not afraid
This rover crossed over
If i'd never have a cent
I'd be rich as rockefeller
Going to set my feet
On the sunny side of the street
