1.Invitation
You and your smile
Hold a strange invitation
Somehow it seems
We've shared our dreams
But where
Time after time
In a room full of strangers
Out of the blue
Suddenly you are there
Wherever I go
You're the glow of temptation
Glancing my way
In the gray of the dawn
And always your eyes
Smile that strange invitation
When you are gone
Where oh, where have you gone
How long must I stay
In a world of illusion
Be where you are
Sp near yet so far apart
Hoping you'll say
With a warm invitation
Where have you been
Darling, come in into my heart
Wherever I go
You're the glow of temptation
Glancing my way
In the gray of the dawn
And always your eyes
Smile that strange invitation
When you are gone
Wheere oh, where have you gone
How long must I stay
In a world of illusion
Be where you are
So near yet so far apart
Hoping you'll say
With a warm invitation
Where have you been
Darling, come in into my heart
2.She Was Too Good To Me
She was too good to me
How can I get along now?
So close she stood to me
Everything seems all wrong now
She would have brought me the sun
Making me smile, that was her fun
If I was mean to her
She'd never say go away now
I was a king to her
Who's gonna light my way now?
It's only natural I'm so blue
She was too good to be true
She was too good to me
How can I get along now?
So close she stood to me
Everything seems all wrong now
She would have brought me the sun
Making me smile, that was her fun
If I was mean to her
She'd never say go away now
I was a king to her
Who's gonna light my way now?
It's only natural I'm so blue
She was too good
She was too good to me
She was too good to be true
3.I Wish I Knew
I wish I knew,
someone like you could love me
I wish I knew,
you place no one above me
Did I mistake this
for a real romance?
I wish I knew
but only you can answer
If you don't care,
why let me hope and pray so?
Don't lead me on,
if I'm a fool just say so
Should I keep dreamin' on
or just forget you?
What shall I do?
I wish I knew
I wish I knew
Someone like you could love me
I wish I knew
You place no one above me
Did I mistake this
for a real romance?
I wish I knew
but only you can answer
If you don't care,
why let me hope and pray so?
Don't lead me on,
if I'm a fool, just say so
Should I keep dreamin' on
or just forget you?
What can I do?
I wish I knew
I wish I knew
Someone like you could love me
I wish I knew
What shall I do
I wish I knew
Someone like you could love me
4.Speak Low
Speak low when you speak love
Our summer day, withers away
Too soon, oh, too soon
Speak low when you speak love
Our moment is swift, like ships adrift
We're swept apart, too soon
Speak low, darling speak low
Love is a spark, lost in the dark
Too soon, too soon
I feel wherever I go
That tomorrow is near, tomorrow is here
And always too soon
Time is so old and love's so brief
Love is pure gold and time a thief
We're late, darling, we're late
The curtain descends
Everything ends
Too soon, too soon
I wait, darling, I wait
Will you speak low to me?
Speak love to me and soon, oh
Time is so old and love's so brief
Love is pure gold and time a thief
We're late, darling we're late
The curtain descends
Everything ends
Too soon, too soon
I wait, darling, I wait
Will you speak low to me?
Speak low to me, speak love, love
Will you speak love and low to me?
And soon, oh
I, I love you, I love you
5.Do Nothing Till You Hear From Me
Come, let's take the A train
Duke's songs will take you right straight up to heaven
Someone told someone and someone told you
But they wouldn't hurt you, not much
Since everyone spreads the story
With his own little personal touch
Do nothin' till you hear from me
Pay no attention to what's said
Why people tear the seams
Of anyone's dream is over my head
Do nothin' till you hear from me
At least consider our romance
If you should take the words
Of others you've heard, I haven't a chance
True, I've been seen with someone new
But does that mean that I'm untrue?
When we're apart, the words in my heart
Reveal how I feel about you
Some kiss may cloud my memory
And other arms may hold a thrill
But please do nothin' till you hear it from me
You never will
Some kiss may cloud my memory
And other arms may hold a thrill
But please, do nothin' till you hear it from me
You never will, never will
You never will
6.I'll Remember April
This lovely day will lengthen into evening
We'll sigh goodbye to all we've ever had
Alone where we have walked together
I'll remember April and be glad
I'll be content you loved me once in April
Your lips were warm and love and spring were new
But I'm not afraid of autumn and her sorrow
For I'll remember April and you
The fire will dwindle into glowing ashes
For flames and love live such a little while
I won't forget but I won't be lonely
I'll remember April and smile
I'll be content you loved me once in April
Your lips were warm and love and spring were new
But I'm not afraid of autumn and her sorrow
For I'll remember April and you
The fire will dwindle into glowing ashes
For flames and love live such a little while
I won't forget but I won't be lonely
I'll remember April and smile
7.Save Your Love For Me
Wish I knew
Why I'm so in love with you
No one else in this world will do
Darling please save your love
For me
Mmmm run away
If I were wise I'd run away
But like a fool in love I stay
And pray you'll save your love
For me
I can feel it
Even when you're not here
Can't conceal it
I really love you my dear
Though I know no good
Can come from loving you
I can't do a thing
I'm so in love with you
So darling help me please
Have mercy on a fool like me
I'm so unwise but still I plead
Darling please save you love
For me h-hmmm
I can feel it
Even when you're not here
Can't conceal it
I really love you my dear
Though I know no good
Can come from loving you
I can't do a thing
I'm so in love with you
So darling help me please
Have mercy on a fool like me
I know I'm lost but still I plead
Darling please save your love for me
Save your love for me
You can have fun with the crowd
But for crying out loud
Darling save your love for me
Mmmm save your love for me
All for me
Cos I need you babe
Need your sweet love
Need it all just for me girl
You better save it now
Bring it on home mmmm
Please save your love.. for me
Darling save your love
Save your love
Save it all
I need it all
I want it.. all your love
All your love girl mmmm
Save it all for me.. Yeah
8.The Ballad Of The Sad Young Men
Sing a song of sad young men
Glasses full of rye
All the news is bad again
Kiss your dreams goodbye
All the sad young men
Sitting in the bars
Knowing neon lights
And missing all the stars
All the sad young men
Drifting through the town
Drinking up the night
Trying not to drown
All the sad young men
Singing in the cold
Trying to forget
That they're growing old
All the sad young men
Choking on their youth
Trying to be brave
Running from the truth
Autumn turns the leaves to gold
Slowly dies the heart
Sad young men are growing old
That's the cruelest part
All the sad young men
Seek a certain smile
Someone they can hold
For a little while
Tired little girl
Does the best she can
Trying to be gay
For a sad young man
While the grimy moon
Watches from above
All the sad young men
Play at making love
Misbegotten moon
Shine for sad young men
Let your gentle light
Guide them home tonight
All the sad young men
9.Skylark
Skylark
Have you anything to say to me?
Won't you tell me where my love can be?
Is there a meadow in the mist
Where someone's longing to be kissed?
Skylark
Have you seen a valley green with spring
Where my heart can go a-journeying?
Over the shadows and the rain
To a blossom covered lane
And in your lonely flight
Haven't you heard the music in the night?
Wonderful music, faint as a will o' the wisp
Crazy as a loon, sad as a gypsy
Serenading the moon
Oh Skylark
I don't know if you can find these things
But my heart is riding on your wings
So if you see them anywhere
Won't you lead me there?
And in your lonely flight
Haven't you heard the music in the night?
Wonderful music, faint as a will o' the wisp
Crazy as a loon, sad as a gypsy
Serenading the moon
Oh Skylark
I don't know if you can find these things
But my heart is riding on your wings
So if you see them anywhere
Won't you lead me there?
Oh Skylark
I don't know if you can find these things
10.Senza Fine
Senza fine
Let it always be senza fine
There's no end to our love
Our hopes our dreams our sighs
No end at all no sad goodbyes
No fears no tears no love that dies
It's senza fine
Let it always be senza fine
Never-ending
The sunlit days the moonlit nights
The sea the sand the starry heights
Are yours and mine forever
All we are and all we know
Is love and love alone and so
The world may spin its weary way
Its lonely night and lonely day
While we go floating far above
In never-ending timeless love
Its senza fine
All we are and all we know
Is love and love alone and so
The world may spin its weary way
Its lonely night and lonely day
While we go floating far above
In never ending timeless love
Its senza fine
Let it always be senza fine
Never ending
The sunlit days the moonlit nights
The sea the sand the starry heights
Are yours and mine forever
La la la la, la la la la, la la la la
La la la la la, la la la la, la la la la la
11.Dindi
Sky
So vast is the sky
With far away clouds just wandering by
Where do they go
Oh I don't know.. don't know
Wind that speaks to the leaves
Telling stories that no one believes
Stories of love belong to you and me
Oh Dindi
If I only had words
I would say all the beautiful things that I see
When you're with me
Oh my Dindi
Oh Dindi
Like the song of the wind in the trees
That's how my heart is singing Dindi
Happy Dindi
When you're with me
I love you more each day
Yes I do.. yes I do
I'd let you go away
If you take.. me with you
Don't you know Dindi
I'd be running and searching for you
Like a river that can't find sea
That would be me
Without you my Dindi
12.This Time The Dream's On Me
Somewhere, someday we'll be close together
Wait and see
Oh, by the way
This time the dream's on me
You'll take my hand
And you'll look at me adoringly
But as things stand
This time the dream's on me
It would be fun
To be certain that I'm the one
To know that I, at least
Supply the shoulder you cry upon
To see you through
Till you're everything you want to be
It can't be true but
This time the dream's on me
It would be fun
To be certain that I'm the one
To know that I, at least
Supply the shoulder you cry upon
To see you through
Till you're everything you want to be
It can't be true but
This time the dream's on me
