You are too beautiful
my dear, to be true
and I am a fool for beauty
fooled by a feeling
that because I had found you
I could have bound you to me.
You are too beautiful
for one man alone
one lucky fool to be with
when there are other [...]

If the nightingales could sing like you
They’d sing much sweeter than they do
For you brought a new kind of love to me
And if the sandman brought me dreams of you

When you walk through a storm, hold your head up high, and don’t be afraid of the dark.
At the end of the storm, is the golden sky, and the sweet silver song of the lark.
Walk on through the wind, walk on [...]

Was the last time I saw you, the last time?
Or can I hope to hold you once more?
What about me, could have made you doubt me?
Want to live without me?
Loving me no more?
From the first time I saw you, I loved you
And [...]

When all the world is a hopeless jumble
And the raindrops tumble all around
Heaven opens a magic lane
When all the clouds darken up the skyway
There’s a rainbow highway to be found
Leading from your windowpane
To a place behind the sun
Just a step beyond the [...]

My romance doesn’t have to have a moon in the sky
My romance doesn’t need a blue lagoon standing by
No month of may, no twinkling stars
No hide away, no softly guitars
My romance doesn’t need a castle risi

The night is young and you’re so beautiful,
Here among the shadows, beautiful lady, open you heart.
The scene is set, the breezes sing of it,
Can’t you get into the swing of it, lady, when do we start?
When the lady is kissable and the [...]

None but the lonely heart
Can know my sadness
Alone and parted
Far from joy and gladness
Heaven’s boundless arch I see
Spread about above me
O what a distance dear to one
Who loves me
None but the lonely heart
Can know my sadness
Alone and parted
Far from jo

INTRO
Oh, Bess, oh, where’s my Bess?
Won’t somebody tell me where?
I ain’t care what she say, I ain’t care what she done
Won’t somebody tell me where’s my Bess? Bess
My Bess, I want her now
Without her I can’t go on
I counted the days that [...]

It was just a neighborhood dance
That’s all that it was
But, oh, what it seemed to be
It was like a masquerade ball
With costumes and all
‘Cause you were at the dance with me
It was just a ride on a train
That’s all that it was
But, [...]
