You don’t remind me of the iris in spring,
Or of dawn on the mountain when the bluebirds start to sing.
You don’t remind me of the breeze on the bay,
Or a star in the fountain where the silver fishes play.
Through the moonglow [...]

You Do Something to Me
Writer(s): Cole Porter
I was mighty blue, thought my life was through,
Till the heavens opened, and I gazed at you
Won’t you tell me, dear, why, when you appear,
Something happens to me, and the strangest feeling goes through me?
You [...]

When You’re Smiling
Writer(s): Fisher / Goodwin / Shay
When you’re smiling, when you’re smiling, the whole world smiles with you,
When you’re laughing, when you’re laughing, the sun comes shining through,
But when you’re crying, you bring on the rain,
So stop your sighing, be [...]

Yum dida dida, I love to play this melody,
Yum dida dida, the melody you sang to me.
Here beside my piano, I linger,
Picking out a memory with just one finger.
Yum dida dida, the music brings me close to you,
Maybe if I play [...]

(Say, Frank, you wanna take a walk?)
Sure, sweetie, just pick a street.
(Picadilly Circus) Aw I’d rather not. (Champs Elysees) Mais, non. (Times Square?) Nah.

(chorus) [Frank with chorus]
Goodnight, my love, sleep tight, my love,
It’s almost dawn, remember me in your dreams.
Just one more kiss, and after this, I must be gone,
Remember me in your dreams.
The hours seemed like minutes, while I held you near.
The minutes [...]

Should I reveal exactly how I feel?
Should I confess I love you?
Should I recite beneath the pale moonlight?
And swear by the stars above you?
Could I repeat the sweetest story told?
Could I entreat, would it be too bold?
Should I reveal ‘xactly how [...]

Take my love, hold me tight, take my love, share this night,
Share my lips, share my heart, say that we’ll never part,
Take my love, hold me tight, in its thrill find delight,
Let each kiss build a dream, let our love be [...]

London by night is a wonderful sight
There is magic abroad in the air
I’m often told that the streets turn into gold
When the moon shines on * Circus and Square *
Deep in the dark that envelops the park
There’s romance in each cigarette [...]

Nag means horse, nag means bother,
Lid means top, and lid means hat,
Pop means noise, and pop means father,
But love means love and you can’t change that.
(Fall means flop, and fall means season,)
(Stout means ale, and [...]
