Selection Of Frank Sinatra 2

Say it over and over again,
Over and over again,
Never stop saying you're mine.
Say it,
Ever and ever so sweet,
Ever and ever so sweet just like an old valentine.
When you say i love you,
The same old i love you,
They whisper in stories and plays,
You can change i love you,
The same old i love you,
To oh such a heavenly phrase.
So say it,
Softly and gently and then,
Over and over again,
Never stop saying you're mine.

Embrace me, my sweet embraceable you
Embrace me, you irreplaceable you

Just one look at you
My heart grew tipsy in me
You and you alone
Bring out the gypsy in me

I love all the many charms about you
Above all, i want these arms about you

Don't be a naughty baby
Come to papa, come to papa do
My sweet embraceable you

<brief interlude>

I love all the many charms about you
Above all, i want my arms about you

So don't you be, a naughty baby
Come to papa do
My sweet embraceable you

And this interesting variation is from frank's album
"frank sinatra the voice-the columbia years-disc 1"


Embrace me, my sweet embraceable you
Embrace me, my silk-and-lace-able you
I'm in love with you, i am and verily so
But you're much too shy, unnecessarily so

I love all the many charms about you
Above all, i want my arms about you
Don't be a naughty baby, come to papa, do
My sweet embraceable you

<very brief instrumental>

I love all the many charms about you
Above all, i want these arms about you
So, don't be a naughty baby, come to papa, do
My sweet embraceable you

I'm not the guy who cared about love
And i'm not the guy who cared about fortunes and such
I never cared much
Oh, look at me now!

I never knew the technique of kissing
I never knew the thrill i could get from your touch
I never knew much
Oh, look at me now!

I'm a new man better than casanova at his best
With a new heart and a brand new start
Why i'm so proud i'm bustin' my vest

So i'm the guy who turned out a lover
Yes i'm the guy who laughed at those blue diamond rings
One of those things
Oh, look at me now!

I'm not the guy who cared about love
And i'm not the guy who cared about fortunes and such
I never cared much
Oh, look at me now!

And i never knew the technique of kissing
I never knew the thrill i could get form your touch
I never knew much
Oh, look at me now!

I'm a new man better than casanova at his very best
With a new heart and a brand new start
I'm so proud i'm bustin' my vest

So i'm the guy who turned out a lover
Yes i'm the guy who laughed at those blue diamond rings
One of those things
Oh, look at me now!
Look at me now!

April played a fiddle
And my heart began to dance
And i was so surprised to find
My arms around romance.
April played a fiddle
And i memorized the tune
And later on, a dream and i
Went singing to the moon.
Then may began to gossip,
And june just winked her eye,
And you should have seen
The know-it-all expression on july.
April played a fiddle
Ah but here's the funny part,
I had to pay the fiddler
With my one and only heart.

Writer(s): author;


I feel the autumn breeze
It steals cross my pillow
As soft as a will-o'-the-wisp
And in its song there is sadness because
There's no you
The lonely autumn trees
How softly they're sighing
For summer is dying they know
That in my heart there's no gladness because
There's no you
The park that we walked in
The garden we talked in
How lonesome they seem in the fall
The stormy clouds hover and falling leaves cover
Our favorite nook in the wall
In spring we'll meet again
We'll kiss and recapture
The summertime rapture
We knew
And from that day never more will i say
There's no you
The stormy clouds hover and falling leaves cover
Our favorite nook in the wall
In spring we'll meet again
We'll kiss and recapture
The summertime rapture
We knew
And from that day never more will i say
There's no you

I don't know why i love you like i do
I don't why, but i do
I don't know why you thrill me like you do
I don't know why, but you do

You never seem to want my romancing
The only time you hold me is when we're dancing

I don't know why i love you like i do
I don't know why, but i do

<instrumental-first four lines>

You never seem to want my romancing
The only time you hold me is when we're dancing

I don't know why i love you like i do
I don't know why, but i do

Stars in the sky were dancing
One night perfect for romancing,
The night a sinner kissed an angel,
He wanted thrills, she wanted love,
Oh but his sighs were tender
As he begged her to surrender,
The night a sinner kissed an angel,
And she believed that it was love.
How was she to know that every lovely vow
Was part of the game he was playing,
But to his surprise he realized
Somehow he meant every word he was saying.
Yes, miracles can happen,
I know 'cause i saw what happened
That night a sinner kissed an angel,
That was the night i fell in love.

Dear, fates will hold no sweeter smile for me
Were you not mine, how dark the world would be
I know no light above that could replace
Love's radiant sunshine in your dear face.
Give me your smile, the love light in your eyes,
I could not hold a fairer paradise
Give me the right to love you all the while,
My world forever, the sunshine of your smile

Two in love can face the world together,
Hearts that cuddle up will muddle through,
The world may rock and rumble,
Crowds may groan and grumble,
Thrones may even tumble too,
Darling, two in love can face the stormy weather,
Laugh aloud at every cloud above,
And so we'll show them all what love can do,
For you and i are two in love.

Writer(s):


There were shadows on the sand closely mingled,
Just two lovers by a moonlit sea,
While i watched i thought of you and i tingled,
For they kissed the way you did with me.
Then the shadows on the sand came much nearer,
And the moon was like a spotlight then,
There was one familiar face showing clearer,
It was you, i couldn't look again.
I felt so sad, there you were with someone new,
I felt so glad, when i found it wasn't true.
For the shadows on the sand seemed to break up,
And i looked around me with a start,
When the pounding of my heart made me wake up.
>from a dream that nearly broke my heart.

By a country road wild roses grow that need my special care,
So i haven't time to be a millionaire.
And a cheerful brook on a mountain side, is sad when i'm not there,
So i haven't time to be a millionaire.
And a friendly gang of robins are peeved when i forget,
That i'm the second tenor in their quartet.
So with all the things i have to do, i'm very much aware
If i wished for wealth it wouldn't be quite fair
`cause i haven't time to be a millionaire.

How can you forget moments in the moonlight,
Moments of a love that used to be,
As i stare in space, i still see your face,
And once again i'm lost in your thrilling embrace.
Though the spell is o'er, somewhere in the moonlight,
Mem'ries of your kiss will live anew,
And we'll meet, my love, as i keep dreaming of
Moments in the moonlight with you.

Shake down the stars, pull down the clouds,
Turn off the moon, do it soon,
I can't enjoy the night without you,
Shake down the stars.
Dry up the streams, stop all my dreams,
Cut off the breeze, do it please,
I never thought i'd cry about you,
Shake down the stars.
I gave you my arms, my lips, my heart,
My love, my life, my all,
But the best that i had to offer you
I found was all too small.
Crush every rose, hush every pray'r,
Break every vow, do it now,
I know i cannot live without you,
Shake down the stars.

Yours is my heart alone
And without you, life holds no charm.
Yours every thought i own,
Our love the theme of every dream.
All that makes life seem worthwhile
Dwells in your eyes and the spell of your smile.
There is no song half so sweet to me
As your voice whispering i love you dear.

This is the beginning of the end,
I can see it in your eyes, in everything you do,
And you're afraid to tell me that we're through
But i can tell by looking at you.
This is the beginning of the end,
You just give yourself away with everything you say,
And though you never told me we must part,
Still i can read the writing in your heart.
Why is it now when i hold your hand
There is some little something that i miss,
What has become of the warmth in your smile,
And where is that little mischief in your goodnight kiss?
This is the beginning of the end,
I can see the thrill is gone, why let it linger on,
Why lie to me and say it isn't so
For when i hold you in my arms i know
That this, this is the beginning of the end.

Intro:
In the hustle of the day, we're all inclined to miss
Little things that mean so much
A word, a smile, and a kiss
When a woman loves a man, he's a hero in her eyes
And a hero he can always be if he'll just realize

She may be weary, women do get weary
Wearing the same shabby dress
And when she's weary, try a little tenderness

She may be waiting, just anticipating
Things she may never possess
While she's without them, try a little tenderness

It's not just sentimental, she has her grief and her care
But a word that's soft and gentle makes it easier to bear

You won't regret it, women don't forget it
Love is their whole happiness
And it's all so easy, try a little tenderness
