Fly me to the moon
And let me play among the stars, Let me see you what spring is like on Jupiter and Mars. In other words, hold my hand. In other words, baby, kiss me *Fill my heart with song And let me sing forever more You are all I long for, all I worship and adore. In other words, please be true. In other words, I love you |

Hello Dolly, well hello Dolly, It's so nice to have you back where you belong. You're looking swell, Dolly, we can tell, Dolly, You're still glowing, you're still crowing, you're still going strong. We feel the room swaying 'cause the band's playing One of your old favorite songs from way back when, Take a rap, fellows, find her an empty lap, fellows, Dolly'll never go away, Dolly'll never go away... (instrumental by Louie Armstrong playing his saxophone) Hello Sax, this is Francis, Louie, It's so nice to see you back where you belong, You're back on top, Louie, never stop, Louie, You're still singing, you're still swinging, you're still going strong, You get the room swaying when you start in playing One of your great songs, your songs from way back when, Blow your horn, Louie, sing up a great big song, Louie, Promise you won't go away, promise you won't go away, Promise you won't go away again. Louie Armstrong: Oh yeah! |

You have the cool clear eyes of a seeker of wisdom and truth,
Yet there's that upturned chin and the grin of impetuous youth, I believe in you, I believe in you. I hear the sound of good solid judgment whenever you talk, Yet there's that bold, brave, spring of the tiger that quickens your walk, I believe in you, I believe in you. And when my faith in my fellow man all but falls apart, I've but to feel your hand grasping mine, and I take heart, I take heart to see the cool clear eyes of a seeker of wisdom and truth, Yet there's that slam, bang, tang, reminiscent of gin and Vermouth, Now I believe in you, I believe in you. (musical interlude) I believe in you, I believe in you, I believe, I believe in you. |

Might as well ask me
To drown in the Dead Sea You might as well ask me To walk a high wire You might as well say The sky is falling You can say stop But I know I can't I've been loving you far too long I can't stop it I've been loving you far too long I can't stop it now Coast to coast I have seen the world Seen the rest And you are the best Can't stop it baby Can't stop this love for you All my moods You always win me round Don't leave me darling Don't wanna Learn a brand new dance Might as well ask me To steal the Taj Majal Spend a night along In a haunted house You can say stop But I know I can't Can't stop it baby Can't stop this love for you Can't stop it baby Can't stop this love for you Can't stop loving you Can't stop loving you Can't stop loving you Can't stop it baby Can't stop this love I have for you darling Deep down inside I will always love you darling Can't stop it Can't stop can't stop Can't stop can't stop Can't stop can't stop This feeling Say stop but I know I can't stop I can't stop I can't stop I can't stop I can't stop can't stop Loving you darling I can't stop loving you I can't stop I can't stop |

I wanna be around to pick up the pieces when somebody breaks your heart, Somebody twice as smart as I. Somebody who will swear to be true like you used to do with me, Who'll leave you to learn that misery loves company, wait and see. I wanna be around to see how he does it when he breaks your heart to bits, Let's see if the puzzle fits, so fine, And that's when I'll discover that revenge is sweet, As I sit there applauding from a front row seat, When somebody breaks your heart like you broke mine. That's when I'll discover that revenge is sweet, As I sit there applauding from a front row seat, When somebody breaks your heart like you broke mine, Like you, like you broke mine. |

Goodbye, No use leading with our chins, This is where our story ends Never lovers, ever friends. Goodbye, Let our hearts call it a day, But before you walk away I sincerely want to say I wish you bluebirds in the spring To give your heart a song to sing, And then a kiss, but more than this, I wish you love. And in July, a lemonade To cool you in some leafy glade I wish you health, and more than wealth, I wish you love. My breaking heart and I agree That you and I could never be, So with my best, my very best, I set you free. I wish you shelter from the storm, A cozy fire to keep you warm But most of all, when showflakes fall, I wish you love.

More than the greatest love the world has known, This is the love I give to you alone, More than the simple words I try to say, I only live to love you more each day. More than you'll ever know, my arms long to hold you so, My life will be in your keeping, waking, sleeping, laughing, weeping, Longer than always is a long long time, but far beyond forever you're gonna be mine. I know I've never lived before and my heart is very sure, No one else could love you more. (musical interlude) More than you'll ever know , my arms they long to hold you so, My life will be in your keeping, waking, sleeping, laughing, weeping, Longer than always is a long long time, but far beyond forever you'll be mine, I know that I've never lived before and my heart is very sure, No one else could love you more, no one else could love you more. |

Out of the tree of life I just picked me a plum
You came along and everything's startin' to hum Still, it's a real good bet, the best is yet to come Best is yet to come and babe, won't that be fine? You think you've seen the sun, but you ain't seen it shine a-Wait till the warm-up's underway Wait till our lips have met And wait till you see that sunshine day You ain't seen nothin' yet The best is yet to come and babe, won't it be fine? Best is yet to come, come the day you're mine Come the day you're mine I'm gonna teach you to fly We've only tasted the wine We're gonna drain the cup dry Wait till your charms are right for these arms to surround You think you've flown before, but baby, you ain't left the ground a-Wait till you're locked in my embrace Wait till I draw you near a-Wait till you see that sunshine place Ain't nothin' like it here The best is yet to come and babe, won't it be fine? The best is yet to come, come the day you're mine Come the day you're mine And you're gonna be mine |

It's the good life, full of fun, seems to be the ideal, Yes, the good life, lest you hide all the sadness you feel, You won't really fall in love 'cause you can't take the chance, So be honest with yourself, don't try to fake romance. Yes, the good life, to be free and explore the unknown, Like the heartache when you learn you must face them alone, Please remember I still want you and in case you wonder why, Well, just wake up, kiss that good life goodbye. (musical interlude) Please remember I still want you and in case you wonder why, Well, just wake up, kiss that good life goodbye. |

Hey, little girl, comb your hair, fix your make-up, soon he will open the door,
Don't think because there's a ring on your finger, you needn't try any more. For wives should always be lovers too, Run to his arms the moment that he comes home to you. I'm warning you, Day after day, there are girls at the office and the men will always be men, Don't stand him up, with your hair still in curlers, you may not see him again. Wives should always be lovers too, Run to his arms the moment he comes home to you. He's almost here, hey, little girl, better wear something pretty, Something you wear to go to the city, Dim all the lights, pour the wine, start the music, time to get ready for love. Time to get ready for love, yes it's time to get ready for love, It's time to get ready, kick your shoes off, baby...., |
