1. _ I'm Glad There Is You
In this world of ordinary people
Extraordinary people
I'm glad there is you
In this world of over-rated pleasures
Of under-rated treasures
I'm so glad there is you
I live to love, i love to live with you beside me
This role so new, i'll muddle through with you to guide me
In this world where many, many play at love
And hardly any stay in love
I'm glad there is you
<brief instrumental>
In this world where many, many play at love
And hardly any stay in love
I'm glad there is you
More than ever, i'm glad there is you

2. _ Time After Time
Writer(s): cahn/styne
What good are words i say to you?
They can't convey to you what's in my heart
If you could hear instead
The things i've left unsaid
Time after time
I tell myself that i'm
So lucky to be loving you
So lucky to be
The one you run to see
In the evening, when the day is through
I only know what i know
The passing years will show
You've kept my love so young, so new
And time after time
You'll hear me say that i'm
So lucky to be loving you

3. _ I'm A Fool To Want You
Writer(s): wolf/herron/sinatra
I'm a fool to want you
I'm a fool to want you
To want a love that can't be true
A love that's there for others too
I'm a fool to hold you
Such a fool to hold you
To seek a kiss not mine alone
To share a kiss that devil has known
Time and time again i said i'd leave you
Time and time again i went away
But then would come the time when i would need you
And once again these words i had to say
Take me back, i love you
...i need you
I know it's wrong, it must be wrong
But right or wrong i can't get along
Without you

4. _ Laura
Writer(s): david raksin - johnny mercer
Laura is the face in the misty lights
Footsteps that you hear down the hall
The (love) that floats on a summer night
That you can never quite recall
And you see laura on a train that is passing through
Those eyes how familiar they seem
She gave your very first kiss to you
That was laura but she's only a dream
She gave your very first kiss to you
That was laura
But she's only a dream

5. _ Nancy
Writer(s): silvers/van heusen
If i don't see her each day, i miss her
Gee what a thrill, each time i kiss her
Believe me, i've got a case
On nancy, with the laughing face
She takes the winter and makes it summer
And summer could take some lessons from her
Picture a tomboy in lace
That's nancy with the laughing face
Have you ever heard mission bells ringing
Well she'll give you the very same glow
When she speaks you would think it was singing
Just hear her say hello
I swear to goodness, you can't resist her
She's mighty sweet, and wait till you see her sister
No angel could replace
Nancy, with the laughing face

6. _ All Of Me
Writer(s): simons
All of me - why not take (come on get) all of me
Can't you see - i'm no good (just a mess) without you
Take my lips - i want to lose them
Take (get a piece of) my (these) arms - i'll never use them
Your good-bye - left me with eyes that cry
How can i - get along (ever make it) without you
(you know) you took (got) the part - that once was (used to be) my heart
So why not - why not take all of me

7. _ Birth Of The Blues, The
Writer(s): desylva/brown/henderson
Oh, they say some people long ago
Were searching for a diff'rent tune
One that they could croon
As only they can
They only had the rhythm
So they started swaying to and fro
They didn't know just what to use
That is how the blues really began
They heard the breeze in the trees
Singing weird melodies
And they made that the start of the blues
And from a jail came the wail
Of a down-hearted frail
And they played that
As part of the blues
From a whippoorwill
Out on a hill
They took a new note
Pushed it through a horn
'til it was worn
Into a blue note
And then they nursed it, rehearsed it
And gave out the news
That the southland gave birth to the blues!

8. _ Night And Day
Writer(s): cole porter
Like the beat beat beat of the tom-tom
When the jungle shadows fall
Like the tick tick tock of the stately clock
As it stands against the wall
Like the drip drip drip of the raindrops
When the summer shower is through
So a voice within me keeps repeating you, you, you
Night and day, you are the one
Only you beneath the moon or under the sun
Whether near to me, or far
It's no matter darling where you are
I think of you
Day and night, night and day, why is it so
That this longing for you follows wherever i go
In the roaring traffic's boom
In the silence of my lonely room
I think of you
Day and night, night and day
Under the hide of me
There's an oh such a hungry yearning burning inside of me
And this torment won't be through
Until you let me spend my life making love to you
Day and night, night and day

9. _ Song Is You, The
Writer(s): kern/hammerstein
I hear music when i look at you;
A beautiful theme of ev'ry
Dream i ever knew.
Down deep in my heart i hear it play.
I feel it start, then melt away.
I hear music when i touch your hand;
A beautiful melody
>from some enchanted land.
Down deep in my heart, i hear it say,
Is this the day?
I alone have heard this lovely strain,
I alone have heard this glad refrain:
Must it be forever inside of me,
Why can't i let it go,
Why can't i let you know,
Why can't i let you know the song
My heart would sing?
That beautiful rhapsody
Of love and youth and spring,
The music is sweet,
The words are true -
The song is you.

10. _ I Could Write A Book
Writer(s): rodgers/hart
If they asked me, i could write a book;
About the way you walk, and whisper;
And look.
I could write a preface;
On how we met;
That the world will never forget.
And the simple;
Secret of the plot;
Is just to tell them;
That i love you, alot.
Then the world discovers;
As my book ends;
How to make two lovers of friends

11. _ Sweet Lorraine
Just found joy
I'm as happy as a baby boy
When he's playing with his choo-choo toy
When i'm with my sweet lorraine
She's got a pair of eyes
That are bluer than the summer sky
When you see her you're gonna realize
Why i love my sweet lorraine
When it's raining i don't miss the sun
'cause it's in my sweetie's smile
Just think that i'm the lucky one
Who will lead her down the aisle
Each night how i pray
That nobody steals her heart away
I can't wait until that lucky day
When i marry my lorraine
When it's raining i never miss the sun
'cause it's in my sweetie smile
Just the think that i'm the lucky one
Who's gonna lead her down the aisle
Each night how i pray
That nobody steals her heart away
I can't wait until that lucky day
That'll be the day when i marry my lorraine

12. _ Brooklyn Bridge
Like the folks you meet on
Like to plant my feet on the brooklyn bridge
What a lovely view from
Heaven looks at you from the brooklyn bridge
I love to listen to the wind through her strings
The song that she sings for the town
I love to look up at the clouds in her hair
She's learned to wear like a crown
If you've been a rover
Journey's end lies over the brooklyn bridge
Don't let no one tell you
I've been tryin' to sell you the brooklyn bridge
All the folks in manhattan are sad
'cause they look at her and wish they had
The good old brooklyn bridge
<instrumental>
If you've been a rover
Journey's end lies over the brooklyn bridge
Don't let no one tell you
I've been tryin' to sell you the brooklyn bridge
You'll miss her most when you roam
`cause you'll think of her and think of home
The good old brooklyn bridge

13. _ April In Paris
Writer(s): harburg/duke
I never knew the charm of spring
I never met it face to face
I never new my heart could sing
I never missed a warm embrace
Till april in paris, chestnuts in blossom
Holiday tables under the trees
April in paris, this is a feeling
That no one can ever reprise
I never knew the charm of spring
I never met it face to face
I never new my heart could sing
I never missed a warm embrace
Till april in paris
Whom can i run to
What have you done to my heart

14. _ Body And Soul
My heart is sad and lonely
For you i sigh, for you dear only
Why haven't you seen it
I'm all for you body and soul
I spend my days in longin'
And wondering why it's me you're (ogling)
I tell you i mean it
I'm all for you body and soul
I can't believe it
It's hard to conceive it
That you turn away romance
Are you pretending
It looks like the ending
And less i could have one more chance to prove, dear
My life a wreck you're making
You know i'm yours for just the taking
I'd gladly surrender myself to you body and soul
My life a wreck you're making
You know i'm yours for just the taking
I would gladly surrender myself to you body and soul

15. _ Put Your Dreams Away
Writer(s): lowe/weiss/mann
Put your dreams away for another day
And i will take their place in your heart
Wishing on a star never got you far
And so it's time to make a new start
When your dreams at night
Fade before you
Then i'll have the right
To adore you
Let your kiss confess this is happiness, darling
And put all your dreams away

16. _ I've Got A Crush On You
How glad the many millions of annabelles and lillians
Would be to capture me
But you had such persistence, you wore down my resistance
I fell and it was swell
I'm your big and brave and handsome romeo
How i won you i shall never never know
It's not that you're attractive
But, oh, my heart grew active
When you came into view
I've got a crush on you, sweetie pie
All the day and night-time give me sigh
I never had the least notion that
I could fall with so much emotion
Could you coo, could you care
For a cunning cottage we could share
The world will pardon my mush
'cause i have got a crush on you
Could you coo, could you care
For a cunning cottage
That we could share
The world will pardon my mush
'cause i have got a crush, my baby, on you

17. _ House I Live In, The
Writer(s): robinson/allen
What is america to me
A name, a map, or a flag i see
A certain word, democracy
What is america to me
The house i live in
A plot of earth, a street
The grocer and the butcher
Or the people that i meet
The children in the playground
The faces that i see
All races and religions
That's america to me
The place i work in
The worker by my side
The little town the city
Where my people lived and died
The howdy and the handshake
The air a feeling free
And the right to speak your mind out
That's america to me
The things i see about me
The big things and the small
That little corner newsstand
Or the house a mile tall
The wedding and the churchyard
The laughter and the tears
And the dream that's been a growing
For more than two hundred years
The town i live in
The street, the house, the room
The pavement of the city
Or the garden all in bloom
The church the school the clubhouse
The millions lights i see
But especially the people
- yes especially the people
That's america to me

18. _ Saturday Night (is The Loneliest Night Of The Week)
Writer(s): cahn/van heusen
Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
'cause that's the night that my sweetie and i
Used to dance cheek to cheek
I don't mind sunday night at all
'cause that's the night friends come to call
And monday to friday go fast
And another week is past
But saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
I sing the song that i sang for the memories i usually seek
Until i hear you at the door
Until you're in my arms once more
Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
Mmmm... saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
I sing the song that i sang for the memories i usually seek
Until i hear you at the door
Until you're in my arms once more
Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
Until i hear you at the door
Until you're in my arms once more
Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
