Andy Williams

You tell me you love me, you say you'll be true
Then you fly around with somebody new
But I'm crazy about you, you butterfly

You treat me mean, you're makin' me cry
I've made up my mind to tell you goodbye
But I'm no good without you, you butterfly

I knew from the first time I kissed you
That you were the troublin' kind
'Cause the honey drips from your sweet lips
One taste and I'm outta my mind

I love you so much, I know what I'll do
I'm clippin' your wings, your flyin' is through
'Cause I'm crazy about you, you butterfly

Ooh, I'm crazy about you, you butterfly
Ooh, I can't live without you, you butterfly

I knew from the first time I kissed you
That you were the troublin' kind
'Cause the honey that drips from your sweet lips
One taste and I'm outta my mind

Ooh, I love you so much, I know what I'll do
I'm clippin' your wings, your flyin' is through
'Cause I'm crazy about you, you butterfly

You butterfly
You butterfly

Moon river, wider than a mile
I'm crossing you in style some day
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker
Wherever you're going, I'm going your way

Two drifters, off to see the world
There's such a lot of world to see
We're after the same rainbow's end, waiting ,round the bend
My Huckleberry Friend, Moon River, and me

Moon river, wider than a mile
I'm crossing you in style some day
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker
Wherever you're going, I'm going your way

Two drifters, off to see the world
There's such a lot of world to see
We're after that same rainbow's end, waiting ,round the bend
My Huckleberry Friend, Moon River, and me

Born free, as free as the wind blows
As free as the grass grows
Born free to follow your heart

Live free and beauty surrounds you
The world still astounds you
Each time you look at a star

Stay free, where no walls divide you
You're free as the roaring tide
So there's no need to hide

Born free, and life is worth living
But only worth living
'cause you're born free

(Stay free, where no walls divide you)
You're free as the roaring tide
So there's no need to hide

Born free, and life is worth living
But only worth living
'cause you're born free

It's the most wonderful time of the year
With the kids jingle belling
And everyone telling you "be of good cheer"

It's the hap-happiest season of all
With those holiday greetings
And gay happy meetings when friends come to call
It's the hap-happiest season of all

There'll be parties for hosting
Marshmallows for toasting
And caroling out in the snow
There'll be scary ghost stories
And tales of the glories
Of Christmases long, long ago

There'll be much mistletoeing
And hearts will be glowing when loved ones are near

Love is a many splendored thing
It's the April rose that only grows in the early spring
Love is nature's way of giving a reason to be living
The golden crown that makes a man a king
Once on a high and windy hill
In the morning mist two lovers kissed and the world stood still
Then your fingers touched my silent heart and taught it how to sing
Yes true love's a many splendored thing

May each day of the week be a good day,
May the Lord always watch over you,
And may all of your hopes turn to wishes,
And may all of your wishes come true.

May each day of the month be a good day,
May you make friends with each one you meet,
And may all of your day dreams be mem'ries,
And may all of your mem'ries be sweet.

Bridge:

The weeks turn to months, and the months into years,
There'll be sadness and joy, there'll be laughter and tears.
But one thing I pray to the Heavens above:

May each of your days be a day full of love.
May each day in the year be a good day,
May each dawn find you happy and gay,
And may all of your days be as lovely
As the one you share with me today.

May each day in your life be a good day,
And good night

Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

Silent night, holy night
Son of God, love's pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth "

Chestnuts roastin' on an open fire
Jack Frost nippin' at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos

Everybody knows
A turkey and some mistletoe
will help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all a-glow
will find it hard to sleep tonight

They know that Santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toys
an' goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know
how to fly

And so I'm offering this simple phrase
to kids from one to ninety-two


Although it's been said
many times many ways
Merry Christmas to you!


And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know
how to fly

And so I'm offering this simple phrase
to kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said
many times many ways
Merry Christmas . . .
to you!

with lyrics by Robert Wells, 1946

I've traveled far, the land and the sea
Beautiful places I happened to be
One little town I'll never forget
Is Lourdes, the village of Saint Bernadette

Ava, ava, ava Maria
Ava, ava, ava Maria

There like a dream this wonderful night
I gazed at the grotto aglow in the light
A feeling divine swept over me there
I fell to my knees as I whispered the prayer

Ava, ava, ava Maria
Ava, ava, ava Maria

Now I am home
I'm happy to be
Telling of places I've traveled to see
One little town
I'll never forget
Is Lourdes, the village of St. Bernadette

Ava, ava, ava Maria
Ava, ava, ava Maria

Ava, ava, ava Maria
Ava, ava, ava Maria

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten,
and children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white

The boys watch the girls while the girls watch the boys who watch the girls go by
Eye to eye, they solemnly convene to make the scene
Which is the name of the game, watch a guy watch a dame on any street in town
Up and down and over and across, romance is boss

Guys talk "girl talk", it happens everywhere
Eyes watch girls walk with tender lovin' care

It's keepin' track of the pack watching them watching back
That makes the world go 'round
"What's that sound?" each time you hear a loud collective sigh
They're making music to watch girls by

Guys talk "girl talk", it happens everywhere
Eyes watch girls walk with tender lovin' care

It's keepin' track of the pack watching them watching back
That makes the world go 'round
"What's that sound?" each time you hear a loud collective sigh
They're making music to watch girls by

The boys watch the girls while the girls watch the boys who watch the girls go by
Eye to eye, they solemnly convene to make the scene

La, la, la ,la

It's the most wonderful time of the year
With the kids jingle belling
And everyone telling you "be of good cheer"
It's the most wonderful time of the year

It's the hap-happiest season of all
With those holiday greetings
And gay happy meetings when friends come to call
It's the hap-happiest season of all

There'll be parties for hosting
Marshmallows for toasting
And caroling out in the snow
There'll be scary ghost stories
And tales of the glories
Of Christmases long, long ago

And hearts will be glowing when loved ones are near
It's the most wonderful time of the year

It's the most wonderful time of the year

I'll have a blue Christmas without you
I'll be so blue thinkin' about you
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
They won't mean a thing if you're not here with me

I'll have a blue Christmas, that's certain
And when that blue heartache starts hurtin'
You'll be doin' all right with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue Christmas

I'll have a blue Christmas, that's certain
And when that blue heartache starts hurtin'
You'll be doin' all right with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue Christmas

The Christmas tree is decorated,
All the shopping's done
Stockings line the fireplace: one by one
All the presents look so pretty
Tied with brightly colored bows
All these things help make this season
Still everybody knows

Chorus x2
Christmas needs love to be Christmas
Christmas needs hearts for a joy
Carolers singing, silver bells ringing
And laughter for each girl and boy
Christmas needs love to be Christmas
It's all that we all need more of
Year in, year out, I'm left with no doubt
The greatest of all gifts is love

I saw mommy kissing Santa Claus
Underneath the mistletoe last night
She didn't see me creep
Down the stairs to have a peek
She thought that I was tucked up
In my Bedroom fast asleep

Then I saw mommy tickle Santa Claus
Underneath his beard so snowy white
What a laugh it would have been
If daddy had only seen
Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night

I saw mommy kissing Santa Claus
Underneath the mistletoe last night
She didn't see me creep
Down the stairs to have peak
She thought that I was tucked up
In my Bedroom fast asleep

Then I saw mommy tickle Santa Claus
Underneath his beard so snowy white
What a laugh it would have been
If daddy had only seen
Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night
Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night

If only in my dreams.

Oh the weather outside is frightful,
But the fire is so delightful,
And since we've no place to go,
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

It doesn't show signs of Pauseping,
And I've bought some corn for popping,
The lights are turned way down low,
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

When we finally kiss goodnight,
How I'll hate going out in the storm!
But if you'll really hold me tight,
All the way home I'll be warm.

The fire is slowly dying,
And, my dear, we're still good-bying,
But as long as you love me so,
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

O holy night
the stars are brightly shining
It is the night
of the dear Saviour's birth!

Long lay the world
in sin and error pining
'till He appeared
and the soul felt it's worth!

A thrill of hope
the weary world rejoices,
for yonder breaks
a new an' glorious morn!

Fall on your knees
O hear the angel voices
O night divine


O night, when Christ was born

O night divine O night,
O night divine!

Fall on your knees
O hear the angel voices
O night divine
O night, when Christ was born

O night divine O night,
O night divine!

O holy night
O night divine

Just hear those sleigh bells jingle-ing
Ring ting tingle-ing too
Come on, it's lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together with you

Outside the snow is falling
And friends are calling "You Hoo"
Come on, it's lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together with you

Giddy-yap giddy-yap giddy-yap let's go
Let's look at the snow
We're riding in a wonderland of snow
Giddy-yap giddy-yap giddy-yap it's grand
Just holding your hand
We're gliding along with the song of a wintry fairy land

Our cheeks are nice and rosy and comfy cozy are we
We're snuggled up together like two birds of a feather would be
Let's take the road before us and sing a chorus or two
Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you

There's a birthday party at the home of Farmer Gray
It'll be the perfect ending of a perfect day
We'll be singing the songs we love to sing without a single stop
At the fireplace while we watch the chestnuts pop
Pop! Pop! Pop!

There's a happy feeling nothing in the world can buy
When they pass around the coffee and the pumpkin pie
It'll nearly be like a picture print by Currier and Ives
These wonderful things are the things we remember all through our lives

Chestnuts roastin' on an open fire
Jack Frost nippin' at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos

Everybody knows
A turkey and some mistletoe
will help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all a-glow
will find it hard to sleep tonight

They know that Santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toys
an' goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know

And so I'm offering this simple phrase
to kids from one to ninety-two


Although it's been said

Merry Christmas to you!

Love Story - Andy Williams

Where do I begin,
To tell the story of how great a love can be,
The sweet love story that is older than the sea,
The simple truth about the love she brings to me.
Where do I start....


With her first hello,
She gave new meaning to this empty world of mine.
They'll never be another love another time.
She came into my life and made the living fine.
She fills my heart.
She fills my heart with very special things
With angel songs and with wild imaginings

She fills my soul with so much love,
That any where I go I'm never lonely.
With her around who could be lonely.
I reach for her hand, it's always there.

How long does it last,
Can love be measured by the hours in a day,
I have no answers now, but this much I can say,
I know I'll need her until the stars all burn away
And she'll be there.

How long does it last,
Can love be measured by the hours in a day,
I have no answers now, but this much I can say,
I know I'll need her until the stars all burn away
And she'll be there....

A time for us some day there'll be
When chains are torn by courage born of a love that's free
A time when dreams so long denied
Can flourish as we unveil the love we now must hide

A time for us at last to see
A life worthwhile for you and me

And with our love through tears and thorns
We will endure as we pass surely through every storm
A time for us some day there'll be a new world
A world of shining hope for you and me

For you and me

And with our love through tears and thorns
We will endure as we pass surely through every storm
A time for us some day there'll be a new world
A world of shining hope for you and me

A world of shining hope for you and me

Are you sincere when you say "I love you?"
Are you sincere when you say "I'll be true?"
Do you mean every word that my ears have heard?

Guess there's no use in hangin' 'round
Guess I'll get dressed and do the town
I'll find some crowded avenue
Though it will be empty without you

Can't get used to losing you no matter what I try to do
Gonna live my whole life through, loving you

Called up some girl I used to know
After I heard her say "Hello"
Couldn't think of anything to say
Since you're gone it happens every day

Can't get used to losing you no matter what I try to do
Gonna live my whole life through, loving you

I'll find somebody, wait and see
Who am I kidding, only me
Cause no one else could take your place
Guess that I am just a hopeless case

Can't get used to losing you no matter what I try to do
Gonna live my whole life through, loving you

I can't get used to losing you no matter what I try to do
Gonna live my whole life through, loving you

Once I was alone
So lonely and then
You came, out of nowhere
Like the sun up from the hills

Cold, cold was the wind
Warm, warm were your lips
Out there, on that ski trail
Where your kiss filled me with thrills

A weekend in Canada, a change of scene
Was the most I bargained for
And then I discovered you and in your eyes
I found the love that I couldn't ignore

Down, down came the sun
Fast, fast, fast, beat my heart
I knew when the sun set
From that day, we'd never ever part

The days of wine and roses laugh and run away like a child at play
Through a meadow land toward a closing door
A door marked "nevermore" that wasn't there before

The lonely night discloses just a passing breeze filled with memories
Of the golden smile that introduced me to
The days of wine and roses and you

(The lonely night discloses) just a passing breeze filled with memories
Of the golden smile that introduced me to
The days of wine and roses and you-oo-oo

Dear heart wish you were here to warm this night
My dear heart, seems like a year since you've been out of my sight
A single room, a table for one
It's a lonesome town all right
But soon i'll kiss you hello at our front door
And dear heart i want you to know
I'll leave your arms never more

My dear heart, seems like a year since you've been out of my sight
A single room, a table for one
It's a lonesome town all right
But soon I'll kiss you hello at our front door
And dear heart I want you to know
I'll leave your arms never more

(A single room, a table for one)
It's a lonesome town all right
But soon I'll kiss you hello at our front door
And dear heart I want you to know
I'll leave your arms never more

Oh honey babe, oh honey babe
Oh honey babe, I like your kind of love
That's good, baby that's good

Honey babe, I like the way that you walk by
I like the way you swing your eye
I like your kind of love
That's good, baby that's good

Every night I like the way you beg for more
And linger there outside the door
I like your kind of love
That's good, baby that's good

Well, well, well-ll-ll ain't it swell
Can't reveal-l-l how I feel
And no one else could ever thrill me like you do
You make my every dream come true
I like your kind of love
That's good, baby that's good

Oh honey babe, oooo honey babe
MMMMM honey babe
I like your kind of love
That's good, baby that's good

Honey baby I like the way you wear your clothes
My love for you just grows and grows
I like your kind of love
Honey you know I do

When you're near you don't know what you do to me
And that's the way it oughta be
I like your kind of love
Honey you know I do

Don't you know-o-o that I love you so
Can't you see-e-e that you're for me
Honey babe I like the way you hold my hand
To make me know you understand
I like your kind of love
Honey you know I do
Oh honey babe, oooo honey babe
MMMMM honey babe
I like your kind of love
That's good, baby that's good
Honey babe I like your kind of love

If I could hold you in the arms of love tonight
I'd never let you go
As the hours go by I'd show you why we've waited for this
As two lovers whisper low

If I could feel that magic kiss your lips invite
Imagine the joys I'd know
The day has died away, let's find a hideaway
And share the promise of a new tomorrow
In the arms of love tonight


The day has died away, let's find a hideaway
And share the promise of a new tomorrow
In the arms of love tonight

Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm

Where's this place called "Lonely Stree-ee-ee-eet
I'm looking for that lonely street
I've got a sad, sad tale to tell
I need a place to go and weep
Where's this place called "Lonely Stree-ee-ee-eet
A place where there's just loneliness
Where dim lights bring forgetfulness
Where broken dreams and mem'ries meet
Where's this place called "Lonely Stree-ee-ee-eet

Perhaps upon that lonely street
There's someone such as I
Who came to bury broken dreams
And watch an old love di-ie
If I could find that lonely street
Where dim lights bring forgetfulness
Where broken dreams and mem'ries meet
Where's this place called "Lonely Stree-ee-ee-eet?"
Where's this place called "Lonely Stree-ee-ee-eet?"

Moon river, wider than a mile
I'm crossing you in style some day
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker
Wherever you're going, I'm going your way

Two drifters, off to see the world
There's such a lot of world to see
We're after the same rainbow's end, waiting ,round the bend
My Huckleberry Friend, Moon River, and me

The boys watch the girls while the girls watch the boys who watch the girls go by
Eye to eye, they solemnly convene to make the scene
Which is the name of the game, watch a guy watch a dame on any street in town
Up and down and over and across, romance is boss

Guys talk "girl talk", it happens everywhere
Eyes watch girls walk with tender lovin' care

It's keepin' track of the pack watching them watching back
That makes the world go 'round
"What's that sound?" each time you hear a loud collective sigh
They're making music to watch girls by

Guys talk "girl talk", it happens everywhere

They're making music to watch girls by

La, la, la ,la

Quiet nights of quiet stars
Quiet chords from my guitar
Floating on the silence that surrounds us

Quiet thoughts and dreams
Quiet walks by quiet streams
And a window on the
Mountains and the sea, how lovely

This is where I want to be
Here with you so close to me
Until the final flicker of life's ember

I, who was lost and lonely
Believing life was only a bitter, tragic joke
Have found with you
The meaning of existence, oh, my love

Quiet nights of quiet stars
Quiet chords from my guitar
Floating on the silence that surrounds us

Quiet thoughts and dreams
Quiet walks by quiet streams
And a window on the
Mountains and the sea, how lovely

This is where I want to be
Here with you so close to me
Until the final flicker of life's ember

I, who was lost and lonely
Believing life was only a bitter, tragic joke
Have found with you
The meaning of existence, oh, my love

Speak softly, love
And hold me warm against your heart
I feel your words
The tender trembling moments start
We're in a world, our very own
Sharing a love that only few have ever known

Wine-colored days warmed by the sun
Deep velvet nights when we are one

Speak softly, love
So no one hears us but the sky
The vows of love
We make will live until we die
My life is yours and all because
You came into my world with love so softly love

Wine-colored days warmed by the sun
Deep velvet nights when we are one

Speak softly, love
So no one hears us but the sky
The vows of love we make will live until we die
My life is yours and all because
You came into my world with love so softly love

I've traveled far, the land and the sea
Beautiful places i happened to be
One little town i'll never forget
Is lourdes, the village of st. bernadette

Ave, ave, ave ma-ri-a
Ave, ave, ave ma-ri-i-ia

There, like a dream, this wonderful night
I gazed at the grotto aglow in the light
A feeling divine swept over me there
I fell to my knees as i whispered the prayer

Ave, ave, ave ma-ri-a
Ave, ave, ave ma-ri-i-ia

Now i am home, i'm happy to be
Telling of places i've traveled to see
One little town i'll never forget
Is lourdes, the village of st. bernadette

Ave, ave, ave ma-ri-a
Ave, ave, ave ma-ri-i-ia

Ave, ave, ave ma-ri-a
Ave, ave, ave ma-ri-a

O holy night
the stars are brightly shining
It is the night
of the dear Saviour's birth!

Long lay the world
in sin and error pining
'till He appeared
and the soul felt it's worth!

A thrill of hope
the weary world rejoices,
for yonder breaks
a new an' glorious morn!

Fall on your knees
O hear the angel voices
O night divine


O night, when Christ was born

O night divine O night,
O night divine!

Fall on your knees
O hear the angel voices
O night divine
O night, when Christ was born

O night divine O night,
O night divine!

O holy night
O night divine
