Blue Skies lyrics - Perry Como
Blue skies, smilin' at me
Nothin' but blue skies do I see
Blue birds singin' a song
Nothin' but blue birds all day long!
Never saw the sun shinin' so bright
Never saw things goin' so right
Noticin' the days hurryin' by
When you're in love, my, my how they fly!
Blue days, all of them gone
Nothin' but blue skies from now on!
[instrumental break]
Nothin' but blue skies from now on!
[instrumental break]
Nothin' but blue birds all day long!
Never saw the sun shinin' so bright
Never saw things goin' so right
Noticin' the days hurryin' by
When you're in love, my, my how they fly!
Blue days, all of them gone
Nothin' but blue skies from now on!
Nothin' but blue skies from now on!
Nothin' but blue skies do I see
Blue birds singin' a song
Nothin' but blue birds all day long!
Never saw the sun shinin' so bright
Never saw things goin' so right
Noticin' the days hurryin' by
When you're in love, my, my how they fly!
Blue days, all of them gone
Nothin' but blue skies from now on!

Blue days, all of them gone
Nothin' but blue skies from now on!
Nothin' but blue skies from now on!
I Love You lyrics - Perry Como
I love you,
Hums an April breeze,
I love you,
Echo the hills!
I love you,
The golden dawn agrees,
As once more she sees,
Daffodils!
It's spring again,
And birds on the wing again,
Start to sing again,
The old melodies!
I love you,
That's the Song of Songs,
And it all belongs,
To you and me
I love you...
Hums an April breeze,
I love you...
Echo the hills!
I love you...
The golden dawn agrees,
As once more she sees,
Daffodils!
It's spring again,
And birds on the wing again,
Start to sing again,
The old melodies! (mellow, melodies...)
I love you,
That's the Song of Songs,
And it all belongs,
To you and me.
And it all belongs,
To you and me!
Hums an April breeze,
I love you,
Echo the hills!
I love you,
The golden dawn agrees,
As once more she sees,
Daffodils!
It's spring again,
And birds on the wing again,
Start to sing again,
The old melodies!
I love you,
That's the Song of Songs,
And it all belongs,
To you and me
I love you...
Hums an April breeze,
I love you...
Echo the hills!
I love you...
The golden dawn agrees,
As once more she sees,
Daffodils!
It's spring again,
And birds on the wing again,
Start to sing again,
The old melodies! (mellow, melodies...)
I love you,
That's the Song of Songs,
And it all belongs,
To you and me.
And it all belongs,
To you and me!
Goodbye Sue lyrics - Perry Como
They were standing in a crowded station,
So unaware,
Of all the people there!
I didn't mean to hear their conversation,
But anyone could tell,
It was their last farewell!
Good-bye Sue,
All the best of luck to you!
You've been my only gal,
What's more, my best pal!
Please don't cry,
Smile until the clouds roll by!
Don't kiss me dear, just walk away,
Or I could never ever say,
Good-bye, good-bye Sue!
(Good-bye Sue) My little Sue!
(All the best of luck to you!) Good luck to you!
(You've been my only gal,
What's more, my best pal!
My best pal!)
Please don't cry,
Smile until the clouds roll by!
Don't kiss me dear, just walk away,
Or I could never ever say,
Good-bye, good-bye Sue!
So unaware,
Of all the people there!
I didn't mean to hear their conversation,
But anyone could tell,
It was their last farewell!
Good-bye Sue,
All the best of luck to you!
You've been my only gal,
What's more, my best pal!
Please don't cry,
Smile until the clouds roll by!
Don't kiss me dear, just walk away,
Or I could never ever say,
Good-bye, good-bye Sue!
(Good-bye Sue) My little Sue!
(All the best of luck to you!) Good luck to you!
(You've been my only gal,
What's more, my best pal!
My best pal!)
Please don't cry,
Smile until the clouds roll by!
Don't kiss me dear, just walk away,
Or I could never ever say,
Good-bye, good-bye Sue!
Here Comes Heaven Again lyrics - Perry Como
Here comes heaven again
Get that angel face
You don't need a halo or wings
You can do such fabulous things!
With eyes that lull me to dreams
Lips that say, say when
You walk by and everybody starts to sigh
Here comes heaven again!
[repeat last verse]
Get that angel face
You don't need a halo or wings
You can do such fabulous things!
With eyes that lull me to dreams
Lips that say, say when
You walk by and everybody starts to sigh
Here comes heaven again!
[repeat last verse]
All Through The Day lyrics - Perry Como
All through the day, I dream about the night
I dream about the night here with you
All through the day, I wish away the time
Until the time when I'm here with you
Down falls the sun, I run to meet you
The evening mist melts away!
Down smiles the moon, and soon your lips recall
The kiss I dreamed of, all through the day!
[instrumental break]
All through the day, I wish away the time
Until the time when I'm here with you
Down falls the sun, I run to meet you
The evening mist melts away!
And down smiles the moon, and soon your lips recall
The kiss I dreamed of, all through the day!
I dream about the night here with you
All through the day, I wish away the time
Until the time when I'm here with you
Down falls the sun, I run to meet you
The evening mist melts away!
Down smiles the moon, and soon your lips recall
The kiss I dreamed of, all through the day!
[instrumental break]
All through the day, I wish away the time
Until the time when I'm here with you
Down falls the sun, I run to meet you
The evening mist melts away!
And down smiles the moon, and soon your lips recall
The kiss I dreamed of, all through the day!
You Won't Be Satisfied (Until You Break My Heart) lyrics - Perry Como
You won't be satisfied until you break my heart,
You're never satisfied until the teardrops start!
I tried to shower you with love and kisses,
But all I ever get from you is,
Naggin' and braggin'...
My poor heart is saggin'...
The way you toss my heard around's a cryin' shame,
I'll bet you wouldn't like it if I did the same!
You're only happy tearin' all my dreams apart,
Oh you won't be satisfied until you break my heart!
You won't be satisfied until you break my heart,
You're never satisfied until the teardrops start!
I tried to shower you with love and kisses,
But all I ever get is,
Naggin' and braggin'...
My poor heart is saggin'...
You won't be satisfied until you break my heart,
You're never satisfied until the teardrops start!
I tried to shower you with love and kisses,
But all I ever get from you is,
Naggin' and braggin'...
My poor heart is saggin'...
The way you toss my heard around's a cryin' shame,
I'll bet you wouldn't like it if I did the same!
You're only happy tearin' all my dreams apart...
It doesn't seem fair (those little white lies)
But you don't seem to care (and now I realize)
You won't be satisfied,
Until you've broken my heart!
You're never satisfied until the teardrops start!
I tried to shower you with love and kisses,
But all I ever get from you is,
Naggin' and braggin'...
My poor heart is saggin'...
The way you toss my heard around's a cryin' shame,
I'll bet you wouldn't like it if I did the same!
You're only happy tearin' all my dreams apart,
Oh you won't be satisfied until you break my heart!
You won't be satisfied until you break my heart,
You're never satisfied until the teardrops start!
I tried to shower you with love and kisses,
But all I ever get is,
Naggin' and braggin'...
My poor heart is saggin'...
You won't be satisfied until you break my heart,
You're never satisfied until the teardrops start!
I tried to shower you with love and kisses,
But all I ever get from you is,
Naggin' and braggin'...

The way you toss my heard around's a cryin' shame,
I'll bet you wouldn't like it if I did the same!
You're only happy tearin' all my dreams apart...
It doesn't seem fair (those little white lies)
But you don't seem to care (and now I realize)
You won't be satisfied,
Until you've broken my heart!
I'm Always Chasing Rainbows lyrics - Perry Como
At the end of the rainbow there's happiness
and to find it how often I've tried
but my life is a race, just a wild goose chase
and my dreams have all been denied!
Why have I always been a failure?
What can the reason be?
I wonder if the world's to blame?
I wonder if it could be me?
I'm always chasing rainbows
watching clouds drifting by!
My schemes are just like all of my dreams
ending in the sky!
Some fellows look and find the sunshine
I always look and find the rain!
Some fellows make a winning sometime
I never even make a gain!
Believe me...
I'm always chasing rainbows
waiting to find a little blue bird in vain!
(Rainbows seem to fade away!)
and to find it how often I've tried
but my life is a race, just a wild goose chase
and my dreams have all been denied!
Why have I always been a failure?
What can the reason be?
I wonder if the world's to blame?
I wonder if it could be me?
I'm always chasing rainbows
watching clouds drifting by!
My schemes are just like all of my dreams
ending in the sky!
Some fellows look and find the sunshine
I always look and find the rain!
Some fellows make a winning sometime
I never even make a gain!
Believe me...
I'm always chasing rainbows
waiting to find a little blue bird in vain!
(Rainbows seem to fade away!)
Till The End Of Time lyrics - Perry Como
Till the end of time
Long as stars are in the blue
Long as there's a spring, a bird to sing
I'll go on loving you
Till the end of time
Long as roses bloom in May
My love for you will grow deeper
With every passing day
Till the wells run dry
And each mountain disappears
I'll be there for you, to care for you
Through laughter and through tears
So take my heart in sweet surrender
And tenderly say that I'm
The one you love and live for
Till the end of time
Till the wells run dry
And each mountain disappears
I'll be there for you, to care for you
Through laughter and through tears
So take my heart in sweet surrender
And tenderly say that I'm
The one you love and live for
Till the end of time
Long as stars are in the blue
Long as there's a spring, a bird to sing
I'll go on loving you
Till the end of time
Long as roses bloom in May
My love for you will grow deeper
With every passing day
Till the wells run dry
And each mountain disappears
I'll be there for you, to care for you
Through laughter and through tears
So take my heart in sweet surrender
And tenderly say that I'm
The one you love and live for
Till the end of time
Till the wells run dry
And each mountain disappears
I'll be there for you, to care for you
Through laughter and through tears
So take my heart in sweet surrender
And tenderly say that I'm
The one you love and live for
Till the end of time
Love Letters lyrics - Perry Como
Love letters straight from your heart,
Keep us so near while apart.
I'm not alone in the night,
When I can have all the love you write...
I memorize every line,
I kiss the name that you sign.
And darling, then I read again right from the start,
Love letters straight from your heart...
[instrumental bridge]
I kiss the name that you sign.
And darling, then I read again right from the start,
Love letters straight from your heart...
Keep us so near while apart.
I'm not alone in the night,
When I can have all the love you write...
I memorize every line,
I kiss the name that you sign.
And darling, then I read again right from the start,
Love letters straight from your heart...
[instrumental bridge]
I kiss the name that you sign.
And darling, then I read again right from the start,
Love letters straight from your heart...
It's The Talk Of The Town lyrics - Perry Como
I can't show my face,
Can't go anyplace,
People stop an' stare,
It's so hard to bare,
Everybody knows you left me,
It's the talk of the town...
Every time we meet,
My heart skips a beat,
We don't stop to speak,
'Though it's just a week,
Everybody knows you left me,
It's the talk of the town...
We send out invitations,
To friends and relations,
Announcing our weddin' day
Friends and our relations,
Gave congratulations,
How can you face them?
What can you say?
Let's make up sweetheart,
We can't stay apart,
Don't let foolish pride,
Keep you from my side,
How can love like ours be ended?
It's the talk of the town...
[instrumental repeat of verse]
How can you face them?
What can you say?
Let's make up sweetheart,
We can't stay apart,
Don't let foolish pride,
Keep you from my side,
How can love like ours be ended?
It's the talk of the town... hmm
It's the talk of the town.
Can't go anyplace,
People stop an' stare,
It's so hard to bare,
Everybody knows you left me,
It's the talk of the town...
Every time we meet,
My heart skips a beat,
We don't stop to speak,
'Though it's just a week,
Everybody knows you left me,
It's the talk of the town...
We send out invitations,
To friends and relations,
Announcing our weddin' day
Friends and our relations,
Gave congratulations,
How can you face them?

You Must Have Been A Beautiful Baby lyrics - Perry Como
You must have been a beautiful baby,
you must have been a wonderful child...
When you were only startin'
to go to kindergarten
I bet you drove the little boys wild!
An' when it came to winning blue ribbons,
you must have shown the other kids how...
I can see the judge's eyes as they handed you the prize
I bet you made the cutest bow!
Oh!, You must have been a beautiful baby,
'cause baby look at you now...
[instrumental]
Does your dad appreciate
that you are merely great?
Does your mother realize
you're such a treat for the eyes?
You must have been a beautiful baby,
you must have been a wonderful child...
When you were only startin'
to go to kindergarten
I bet you drove the little boys wild!
An' when it came to winning blue ribbons,
you must have shown the other kids how...
I can see the judge's eyes as they handed you the prize
I bet you made the cutest bow!
Oh!, You must have been a beautiful baby,
'cause baby look at you now... (she's a cutie!)

It's Been A Long, Long Time lyrics - Perry Como
Kiss me once, then kiss me twice,
then kiss me once again,
It's been a long, long time!
Haven't felt like this my dear,
since I can't remember when,
It's been a long, long time!
You'll never know how may dreams
I dreamed about you,
or just how empty they all seemed
without you
So, kiss me once, then kiss me twice,
then kiss me once again,
It's been a long, long time!

It's been a long, long time!
Haven't felt like this my dear,

It's been a long, long time!

Song Of Songs lyrics - Perry Como
Do you recall that night in June when first we met?
Do you remember Love the words we spoke?
Have you forgotten all the tender vows we made
in the silent magical moonbeams light?
Gone are the golden dreams
with summer roses,
And all of our tender-est vows
were made but to be broken . . .
Song of songs,
Song of memory,
and broken melody of love and life
nevermore to me
can that melody
fill the heart
with the joy once it knew . . .
Oh night of bliss, night of June and love
beneath the stars amid the roses . . .
Oh dream of delight that faded at dawn
Oh song of songs,
Oh night of bliss,
When you were my whole world of love!
[instrumental break]
When you were my whole world of love . . .
Of love!
Do you remember Love the words we spoke?
Have you forgotten all the tender vows we made
in the silent magical moonbeams light?
Gone are the golden dreams
with summer roses,
And all of our tender-est vows
were made but to be broken . . .
Song of songs,
Song of memory,
and broken melody of love and life
nevermore to me
can that melody
fill the heart
with the joy once it knew . . .
Oh night of bliss, night of June and love
beneath the stars amid the roses . . .
Oh dream of delight that faded at dawn
Oh song of songs,
Oh night of bliss,
When you were my whole world of love!
[instrumental break]
When you were my whole world of love . . .
Of love!
Prisoner Of Love lyrics - Perry Como
(originally by Russ Columbo)
Alone from night to night you'll find me
Too weak to break the chains that bind me
I need no shackles to remind me
I'm just a prisoner of love
For one command I stand and wait now
From one who's master of my fate now
I can't escape for it's too late now
I'm just a prisoner of love
What's the good of my caring
If someone is sharing those arms with me
Although she has another
I can't have another, for I'm not free
She's in my dreams awake or sleeping
Upon my knees to her I'm creeping
My very life is in her keeping
I'm just a prisoner of love
What's the good of my caring
If someone is sharing those arms with me
Although she has another
I can't have another, for I'm not free
She's in my dreams awake or sleeping
Upon my knees to her I'm creeping
My very life is in her keeping
I'm just a prisoner of love
Alone from night to night you'll find me
Too weak to break the chains that bind me
I need no shackles to remind me
I'm just a prisoner of love
For one command I stand and wait now
From one who's master of my fate now
I can't escape for it's too late now
I'm just a prisoner of love
What's the good of my caring
If someone is sharing those arms with me
Although she has another
I can't have another, for I'm not free
She's in my dreams awake or sleeping
Upon my knees to her I'm creeping
My very life is in her keeping
I'm just a prisoner of love
What's the good of my caring
If someone is sharing those arms with me
Although she has another
I can't have another, for I'm not free
She's in my dreams awake or sleeping
Upon my knees to her I'm creeping
My very life is in her keeping
I'm just a prisoner of love
Long Ago (And Far Away) lyrics - Perry Como
Long ago and far away,
I dreamed a dream one-day,
And now that dream is here beside me!
Long the skies were overcast,
But now the clouds have past,
You're here at last!
Chills run up and down my spine,
Aladdin's lamp is mine,
The dream I dreamed was not denied me!
Just one look and then I knew,
That all I longed for long ago,
Was you!
Long ago, so long ago and far away!
So long ago!
So long ago and far away,
I dreamed a dream one-day,
And now that dream is here beside me!
Long the skies were overcast,
But now the clouds have past,
You're here at last!
Chills run up and down my spine,
Aladdin's lamp is mine,
The dream I dreamed was not denied me!
Just one look and then I knew,
That all I longed for long ago,
So long ago, was you!
Just you!
I dreamed a dream one-day,
And now that dream is here beside me!
Long the skies were overcast,
But now the clouds have past,
You're here at last!
Chills run up and down my spine,
Aladdin's lamp is mine,
The dream I dreamed was not denied me!
Just one look and then I knew,
That all I longed for long ago,
Was you!
Long ago, so long ago and far away!
So long ago!
So long ago and far away,
I dreamed a dream one-day,
And now that dream is here beside me!
Long the skies were overcast,
But now the clouds have past,
You're here at last!
Chills run up and down my spine,
Aladdin's lamp is mine,
The dream I dreamed was not denied me!
Just one look and then I knew,
That all I longed for long ago,
So long ago, was you!
Just you!

Although she has another
I can't have another, for I'm not free
She's in my dreams awake or sleeping
Upon my knees to her I'm creeping
My very life is in her keeping
I'm just a prisoner of love
Alone from night to night you'll find me
Too weak to break the chains that bind me
I need no shackles to remind me
I'm just a prisoner of love
For one command I stand and wait now
From one who's master of my fate now
I can't escape for it's too late now
I'm just a prisoner of love
What's the good of my caring
If someone is sharing those arms with me
Although she has another
I can't have another, for I'm not free
She's in my dreams awake or sleeping
Upon my knees to her I'm creeping
My very life is in her keeping
I'm just a prisoner of love
What's the good of my caring
If someone is sharing those arms with me
Although she has another
I can't have another, for I'm not free
She's in my dreams awake or sleeping
Upon my knees to her I'm creeping
My very life is in her keeping
I'm just a prisoner of love
Magic Moments lyrics - Perry Como
Magic moments
When two hearts are caring
Magic moments
Memories we've been sharing
I'll never forget the moment
We kissed the night of the hayride
The way that we hugged to try to keep warm
While taking a sleigh ride
Magic moments
Memories we've been sharing
Magic moments
When two hearts are caring
Time can't erase the memory of
These magic moments filled with love
The telephone call
That tied up the line for hours and hours
The Saturday dance I got up the nerve
To send you some flowers
Magic moments
Memories we've been sharing
Magic moments
When two hearts are caring
Time can't erase the memory of
These magic moments filled with love
(The way that we cheered
Whenever our team was scoring a touch down)
The time that the floor fell out of my car
When I put the clutch down
(The penny arcade, the games that we played
The fun and the prizes)
The Halloween hop when everyone came
In funny disguises
Magic moments
Filled with love
When two hearts are caring
Magic moments
Memories we've been sharing
I'll never forget the moment
We kissed the night of the hayride
The way that we hugged to try to keep warm
While taking a sleigh ride
Magic moments
Memories we've been sharing
Magic moments
When two hearts are caring
Time can't erase the memory of
These magic moments filled with love
The telephone call
That tied up the line for hours and hours
The Saturday dance I got up the nerve
To send you some flowers
Magic moments
Memories we've been sharing
Magic moments
When two hearts are caring
Time can't erase the memory of
These magic moments filled with love
(The way that we cheered
Whenever our team was scoring a touch down)
The time that the floor fell out of my car
When I put the clutch down
(The penny arcade, the games that we played
The fun and the prizes)
The Halloween hop when everyone came
In funny disguises
Magic moments
Filled with love

Catch A Falling Star lyrics - Perry Como
Catch a falling star and put it in your pocket
Never let it fade away
Catch a falling star and put it in your pocket
Save it for a rainy day
For love may come and tap you on the shoulder
Some starless night
Just in case you feel you wanna hold her
You'll have a pocket full of starlight
Catch a falling star and put it in your pocket
Never let it fade away
Catch a falling star and put it in your pocket
Save it for a rainy day
For love may come and tap you on the shoulder
Some starless night
And just in case you feel you wanna hold her
You'll have a pocket full of starlight (pocket full of starlight)
Catch a falling star and put it in your pocket
Never let it fade away
Catch a falling star and put it in your pocket
Save it for a rainy day
For when your troubles start multiplyin'
They just might
It's easy to forget them without tryin'
With just a pocket full of starlight
Catch a falling star and put it in your pocket
Never let it fade away
Catch a falling star and put it in your pocket
Save it for a rainy day
(Save it for a rainy day)
Save it for a rainy day
Never let it fade away
Catch a falling star and put it in your pocket
Save it for a rainy day
For love may come and tap you on the shoulder
Some starless night
Just in case you feel you wanna hold her
You'll have a pocket full of starlight
Catch a falling star and put it in your pocket
Never let it fade away
Catch a falling star and put it in your pocket
Save it for a rainy day
For love may come and tap you on the shoulder
Some starless night
And just in case you feel you wanna hold her
You'll have a pocket full of starlight (pocket full of starlight)
Catch a falling star and put it in your pocket
Never let it fade away

I Know lyrics - Perry Como
(I know, I know, oh yes, I know!)
I know what it means
to be lost in the dark!
I know what it means
to be tossed by the storm!
I have walked alone
with a heart of stone
and despair too heavy for tears,
but you caught my heart
and you taught my heart
to forget it's doubts and fear!
And now that I know
the joy of your love
My head is high, I can face the sky
and know that heaven is here below,
I know...
For you I could die,
for you I will live,
I know!

and know that heaven is here below,

When You Were Sweet Sixteen lyrics - Perry Como
When first I saw the love-light in your eyes
I dreamed the world held not but joy for me
And even though we drifted far apart
I never dream but what I dream of thee
I love you as I never loved before
Since first I met you on the village green
Come to me or my dream of love is o'are
I love you as I loved you, when you were sweet
When you were sweet sixteen
(I love you as I never loved before)
(Since first I met you on the village green)
(Come to me or my dream of love is o'are)
I love you as I loved you, when you were sweet
When you were sweet sixteen
(When you were sweet sixteen)
I dreamed the world held not but joy for me
And even though we drifted far apart
I never dream but what I dream of thee
I love you as I never loved before
Since first I met you on the village green
Come to me or my dream of love is o'are
I love you as I loved you, when you were sweet
When you were sweet sixteen
(I love you as I never loved before)
(Since first I met you on the village green)
(Come to me or my dream of love is o'are)
I love you as I loved you, when you were sweet
When you were sweet sixteen

Try To Remember lyrics - Perry Como
Try to remember the kind of September,
When life was slow and oh so mellow.
Try to remember the kind of September,
When grass was green and grain was yellow.
Try to remember the kind of September,
When you were a tender and callow fellow.
Try to remember, and if you remember,
Then follow (follow) follow (follow) follow...
Try to remember when life was so tender,
That no one wept except the willow,

That love was an ember about to billow,
Try to remember, and if you remember,
Then follow (follow) follow...

Although you know the snow will follow.
Deep in December it's nice to remember,
Without a hurt the heart is hollow.)

Love Make The World Go Round (Yeah Yeah) lyrics - Perry Como
(Yea, Yea and a Yea, Yeah!) Yes!
There's been a lot of talk about the game of love,
It's what everybody, everywhere, is thinking of!
The love bug's busy as he can be,
And I gotta a funny feeling that he just bit me!
[Chorus:]
‘Cause love makes the world go ‘round and around.
Love makes the world go ‘round!
Your pulse will beat and your heart will pound,
‘Cause love makes the world go ‘round!
I met a little guy about four feet small,
Who fell in love with Annie who was eight feet tall!
Every time I see ‘em comin' down the street,
I know true love just can't be beat!
[Chorus]
A goose got loose at the county fair,
They looked high and low but she wasn't there!
Up jumped a gander who said leave her alone,
When she misses old Dad, she'll come back home!
‘Cause love makes the world go ‘round... (and ‘round and ‘round!)
No matter what you do or where you go,
You get kinda lonely when the lights are low!
Everybody's gotta have a love that's true,
And I just gotta have you, you, you!
‘Cause love makes the world go ‘round and around.
Love makes the world go ‘round!
Your pulse will beat and your heart will pound,
‘Cause love makes the world go...
Love makes the world go...
Love! Makes the world go round!
Yea, Yea and a Yea, Yeah!
There's been a lot of talk about the game of love,
It's what everybody, everywhere, is thinking of!
The love bug's busy as he can be,
And I gotta a funny feeling that he just bit me!
[Chorus:]
‘Cause love makes the world go ‘round and around.
Love makes the world go ‘round!
Your pulse will beat and your heart will pound,
‘Cause love makes the world go ‘round!
I met a little guy about four feet small,
Who fell in love with Annie who was eight feet tall!
Every time I see ‘em comin' down the street,

Round And Round lyrics - Perry Como
Find a wheel and it goes round, round, round
As it skims along with a happy sound
As it goes along the ground, ground, ground
Till it leads you to the one you love
Then your love will hold you round, round, round
In your heart's a song with a brand new song
And your head goes spinning round, round, round
'cause you've found what you've been dreamin' of
In the night you see the oval moon
Going round and round in tune
And the ball of sun in the day
Makes a girl and boy wanna say
Find a ring and put it round, round, round
And with ties so strong that two hearts are bound
Put it on the one you've found, found, found
For you know that this is really love
Find a wheel and it goes round, round, round
As it skims along with a happy sound
As it goes along the ground, ground, ground
Till it leads you to the one you love
Then your love, you'll hold her round, round, round
In your heart's a song with a brand new song
And your head goes spinning round, round, round
'cause you've found what you've been dreamin' of
In the night you see the oval moon
Going round and round in tune
And the ball of sun in the day
Makes a girl and boy wanna say
Find a ring and put it round, round, round
And with ties so strong your two hearts are bound
Put it on the one you've found, found, found
For you know that this is really love
Find a ring, put it on
For you know that this is really love, really love,
Really love
As it skims along with a happy sound
As it goes along the ground, ground, ground
Till it leads you to the one you love
Then your love will hold you round, round, round
In your heart's a song with a brand new song
And your head goes spinning round, round, round
'cause you've found what you've been dreamin' of
In the night you see the oval moon
Going round and round in tune
And the ball of sun in the day
Makes a girl and boy wanna say
Find a ring and put it round, round, round
And with ties so strong that two hearts are bound
Put it on the one you've found, found, found
For you know that this is really love
Find a wheel and it goes round, round, round

She went to pay her Texas, she went to pay her taxes

Oh, how did Wisconsin boy, she stole a NeBras-ky
Too bad that Arkan-sas boy, and so did Tenne-see

More lyrics - Perry Como
You're more than life to me
More than eternity
And the more I know of you
All the more I love you
I need you more each day
Much more than words can say
More than forever more

The silver moon will fade too soon
And bring the dawn when you'll be gone
Before you go, please let me know
That what you feel is really real
So do not grieve but I must leave
Because live only for
Your love and mine more and more
You're more than life to me
More than eternity
And the more I know of you
All the more I love you
I need you more each day

Makin' love to you!
It's just the nicest thing I do,
Makin' love to you!
Each time we're face to face,
Music fills the air!
And then when we embrace,
I hear violins, the song begins!
I never dreamed that you could be,
Makin' love to me!
That dream is now reality,
You are here with me!
Each night the miracle of rainbows come in view,
Because I'm makin' love to you!
I never dreamed that you could be,
Makin' love to me!
That dream is now reality,
‘Cause you are here with me!
Each night the miracle of rainbows come in view,
Because I'm makin' love to you!
Makin' love to you!
It's just the nicest thing I do,
Makin' love to you!
Each time we're face to face,
Music fills the air!
And then when we embrace,
I hear violins, the song begins!
I never dreamed that you could be,
Makin' love to me!
That dream is now reality,
You are here with me!
Each night the miracle of rainbows come in view,
Because I'm makin' love to you!
I never dreamed that you could be,
Makin' love to me!
That dream is now reality,
‘Cause you are here with me!
Each night the miracle of rainbows come in view,
Because I'm makin' love to you!
Sing Along With Me lyrics - Perry Como
Sing along with me,
Sing a happy song!
I would guarantee.
That you can't go wrong!
You will be surprised,
At the way you'll feel,
All your cares and woes will be a hazy memory!

Tonight I Celebrate My Love For You lyrics - Perry Como
Tonight I celebrate my love for you,
It seems the natural thing to do!
Tonight, no one's going to find us,
We'll leave the world behind us,
When I make love to you, tonight!
Tonight I celebrate my love for you,
And hope that deep inside you feel it too!
Tonight our spirits will be climbin'
To a sky lit up with diamonds!
When I make love to you, tonight!
Tonight I celebrate my love for you,
And the midnight sun is gonna come shining through,
Tonight, there'll be no distance between us,
What I want most of you,
Is to get close to you,
Tonight!
Tonight I celebrate my love for you,
And soon this old world will seem brand new!
Tonight, we will both discover,
How friends turn into lovers,
When I make love to you, tonight!
It seems the natural thing to do!
Tonight, no one's going to find us,
We'll leave the world behind us,
When I make love to you, tonight!

And hope that deep inside you feel it too!
Tonight our spirits will be climbin'
To a sky lit up with diamonds!

And soon this old world will seem brand new!
Tonight, we will both discover,
How friends turn into lovers,
When I make love to you, tonight!
Butterfly lyrics - Perry Como
Oh it's a sin to catch a butterfly,
So I won't ever try to keep you in a jar!
I'll just let you flip and flow and 'round,
I'll never tie you down 'cause that's the way you are!
Butterfly, I'll set you free,
But once in a while,
Please fly home to me!
All the snow has melted from the ground,
When you first came around and held me it was spring!
April showers kept you here with me,
Was it your love for me or water on your wings?
Butterfly, I'll set you free,
But once in a while,
Please make love to me!
It's a sin to catch a butterfly,
So I'll just say good-bye and watch you fly away!
But should you feel by the winter's chill,
Come to my window sill I'll never make you stay!
Butterfly, I'll set you free,
But once in a while,
Please come home to me!
So I won't ever try to keep you in a jar!
I'll just let you flip and flow and 'round,
I'll never tie you down 'cause that's the way you are!
Butterfly, I'll set you free,
But once in a while,
Please fly home to me!
All the snow has melted from the ground,
When you first came around and held me it was spring!
April showers kept you here with me,
Was it your love for me or water on your wings?
Butterfly, I'll set you free,
But once in a while,
Please make love to me!
It's a sin to catch a butterfly,
So I'll just say good-bye and watch you fly away!
But should you feel by the winter's chill,
Come to my window sill I'll never make you stay!
Butterfly, I'll set you free,
But once in a while,
Please come home to me!

Bless the beasts and the children
For in this world they have no voice,
They have no choice!
Bless the beasts and the children,
For the world can never be,
A world they see!
Light their way,
When the darkness surrounds them,
Give them love,
And let it shine all around them!
Bless the beasts and the children,
Give them shelter from the storm,
Keep them safe,
And keep them warm!
For in this world they have no voice,
They have no choice!
Bless the beasts and the children,
For the world can never be,
A world they see!
Light their way,
When the darkness surrounds them,
Give them love,
And let it shine all around them!
Bless the beasts and the children,
Give them shelter from the storm,
Keep them safe,
And keep them warm!
That's What Friends Are For lyrics - Perry Como
And I never thought I'd feel this way,
And as far as I'm concerned,
I'm glad I got a chance to say,
That I do believe I love you!
And if I should ever go away,
Well then close your eyes and try,
to feel the way we do today!
And then if you can remember...

Keep shining!
Knowing you can always count on me,
For sure!
And that's what friends are for!
For good times!
And bad times!
I'll be on your side forever more!
That's what friends are for!
And so, by the way, I thank you and then,
For the times when we're apart,
Well then close your eyes and know,
These words are comin' from my heart!
And then if you can remember...
Keep smiling!
Keep shining!

The Wind Beneath My Wings lyrics - Perry Como
It must have been cold there in my shadow,
To never have sunlight on your face?
You've been content to let me shine,
You always walked a step behind.
I was the one with all the glory
While you were the one with all the strength,
Only a face without a name,
I never once heard you complain.
Did you ever know that you're my hero?
And everything I'd like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle,
'Cause you are the wind beneath my wings!
It might have appeared to go unnoticed,
But I've got it all here in my heart!
I want you to know I know the truth,
I would be nothin' without you!
Did you ever know that you're my hero?
And everything I'd like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle,
'Cause you are the wind beneath my wings,
You are the wind beneath my wings!
To never have sunlight on your face?
You've been content to let me shine,
You always walked a step behind.
I was the one with all the glory
While you were the one with all the strength,
Only a face without a name,
I never once heard you complain.
Did you ever know that you're my hero?
And everything I'd like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle,
'Cause you are the wind beneath my wings!
It might have appeared to go unnoticed,
But I've got it all here in my heart!
I want you to know I know the truth,
I would be nothin' without you!
Did you ever know that you're my hero?
And everything I'd like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle,
'Cause you are the wind beneath my wings,
You are the wind beneath my wings!
I'm Dreaming Of Hawaii lyrics - Perry Como
I'm dreaming of Hawaii,
Where perfume fills the air.
And lovely gentle breezes,
Come and take away your every care.
The beauty of Hawaii,
Is waiting just for you.
Let's fly there on a rainbow,
And let all our wildest dreams come true.
Palm trees are swayin'

We hope you'll stay,
It's here you'll find that longed for peace of mind...
There's romance in Hawaii,
It's heaven by the sea.

Do You Remember Me? lyrics - Perry Como
Do you remember me,
As I remember you?
I know, many years have passed,
Yet I still can't forget the love we shared.
Do you ever regret the day,
You turned and walked away?
Leaving a dream behind,
One I never could find again.
Life went on without you,
I willed it from my mind!
But still the memory lingers in my heart,
Of how we parted.
Do you remember why,
You had to say good-bye?
Do you every now and then,
Breathe a sigh, shed a tear, for me,
Wishing we were together, still in love,
The way that we used to be!
Do you remember me,
Holding you tenderly?
Do you, every now and then,
Breathe a sigh, shed a tear, for me,
Wishing we were together, still in love,
The way that we used to be!
As I remember you?
I know, many years have passed,
Yet I still can't forget the love we shared.
Do you ever regret the day,
You turned and walked away?
Leaving a dream behind,
One I never could find again.
Life went on without you,
I willed it from my mind!
But still the memory lingers in my heart,
Of how we parted.
Do you remember why,
You had to say good-bye?
Do you every now and then,
Breathe a sigh, shed a tear, for me,
Wishing we were together, still in love,
The way that we used to be!
Do you remember me,
Holding you tenderly?
Do you, every now and then,
Breathe a sigh, shed a tear, for me,
Wishing we were together, still in love,
The way that we used to be!
My Heart Stood Still lyrics - Perry Como
I took one look at you, that's all I meant to do
And then my heart stood still
My feet could step and walk, my lips could move an' talk
And then my heart stood still
Though not a single word was spoken
I could tell you knew
That unfelt clasp of hands,
told me so well you knew
I never lived at all,
until the thrill of that moment
when my heart stood still!
Though not a single word was spoken
I could tell you knew
That unfelt clasp of hands,
told me so well you knew
I never lived at all,
until the thrill of that moment
when my heart stood still!
And then my heart stood still
My feet could step and walk, my lips could move an' talk
And then my heart stood still
Though not a single word was spoken
I could tell you knew
That unfelt clasp of hands,
told me so well you knew
I never lived at all,
until the thrill of that moment
when my heart stood still!
Though not a single word was spoken
I could tell you knew
That unfelt clasp of hands,
told me so well you knew
I never lived at all,
until the thrill of that moment
when my heart stood still!
You're Nearer lyrics - Perry Como
You're nearer, than my head is to my pillow,
Nearer, than the wind is to the willow.
Dearer, than the rain is to the earth below,
Precious as the sun to the things that grow.
You're nearer, than the ivy to the wall is,
Nearer, than the winter to the fall is.
Leave me, but when you're away, you'll know,
You're nearer, for I love you so!
Nearer, than the wind is to the willow.
Dearer, than the rain is to the earth below,
Precious as the sun to the things that grow.
You're nearer, than the ivy to the wall is,
Nearer, than the winter to the fall is.
Leave me, but when you're away, you'll know,
You're nearer, for I love you so!

Not While I'm Around lyrics - Perry Como
Nothin's gonna harm you, not while I'm around!
Nothin's gonna harm you, "No Sir!"
Not while I'm around!
Demons are prowling everywhere, nowadays,
I'll send then howling, I don't care,
I got ways!
No one's gonna hurt you, no one's gonna dare!
Others can desert you, not to worry, whistle,
I'll be there!
Demons will charm you with a smile, for a while,
But in time, nothin' can harm you,
Not while I'm around!
Demons will charm you with a smile, for a while,
But in time, nothin's gonna harm you,
Not while I'm around!
Not while I'm around!
Nothin's gonna harm you, "No Sir!"
Not while I'm around!
Demons are prowling everywhere, nowadays,
I'll send then howling, I don't care,
I got ways!
No one's gonna hurt you, no one's gonna dare!
Others can desert you, not to worry, whistle,
I'll be there!
Demons will charm you with a smile, for a while,
But in time, nothin' can harm you,
Not while I'm around!
Demons will charm you with a smile, for a while,
But in time, nothin's gonna harm you,
Not while I'm around!
Not while I'm around!
Regrets lyrics - Perry Como
I wish that I could take back
All of the things that I've done to hurt you!
I didn't mean to be so cruel!
And yet I know that I've been selfish
And, at times, a just fool!
And every thoughtless thing I've done
Keeps comin' back to haunt me
Because you took each one to heart!
And as I realize it's my fault
We've grown worlds apart...
I have regrets, regrets,
For my mistakes an' thinking only of my self
And all that I have left are these regrets, regrets,
For the things I did that somehow you just can't forgive
I guess I'll always have to live with these regrets
If I could right the wrong I've done
Maybe I could stop your leavin'
But there's so much I'm guilty of
And it's too late to say I'm sorry
'cause bein' sorry is not enough!
'cause with each angry word that I've said
Your love for me was dyin',
Each word left a lasting scar
And right now I feel so helpless,
Wishin' I could change the way things are...
I have regrets, regrets,
For my mistakes an' thinking only of my self
And all that I have left are these regrets, regrets,
For the things I did that somehow you just can't forgive
I guess I'll always have to live with these regrets...
All of the things that I've done to hurt you!
I didn't mean to be so cruel!
And yet I know that I've been selfish
And, at times, a just fool!
And every thoughtless thing I've done
Keeps comin' back to haunt me
Because you took each one to heart!
And as I realize it's my fault
We've grown worlds apart...
I have regrets, regrets,
For my mistakes an' thinking only of my self
And all that I have left are these regrets, regrets,
For the things I did that somehow you just can't forgive
I guess I'll always have to live with these regrets
If I could right the wrong I've done
Maybe I could stop your leavin'
But there's so much I'm guilty of
And it's too late to say I'm sorry
'cause bein' sorry is not enough!
'cause with each angry word that I've said
Your love for me was dyin',
Each word left a lasting scar
And right now I feel so helpless,
Wishin' I could change the way things are...
I have regrets, regrets,
For my mistakes an' thinking only of my self
And all that I have left are these regrets, regrets,
For the things I did that somehow you just can't forgive
I guess I'll always have to live with these regrets...
When lyrics - Perry Como
When, when beauty fades from view,
As worldly things will do,
My eyes will still see you...
When, when dreams turn old and gray,
And seem to slip away,
My dream of you will stay...
Loving you, the way I do,
Wanting you, needing you,
Don't you know, can't you see,
My love will flow eternally...
Don't you know, can't you see,
My love will flow eternally...
And when, when evening shadows fall,
And you are in my arms,
I love you most of all...
Loving you, the way I do,
Wanting you, needing you,
Don't you know, can't you see... [to fade]
As worldly things will do,
My eyes will still see you...
When, when dreams turn old and gray,
And seem to slip away,
My dream of you will stay...
Loving you, the way I do,
Wanting you, needing you,
Don't you know, can't you see,
My love will flow eternally...
Don't you know, can't you see,
My love will flow eternally...
And when, when evening shadows fall,
And you are in my arms,
I love you most of all...
Loving you, the way I do,
Wanting you, needing you,
Don't you know, can't you see... [to fade]
There'll Never Be Another Night Like This lyrics - Perry Como
There'll never be another night like this
a girl like you, to hold an' kiss!
Oh, there'll never be another night like this
a girl like you, to love!
I've been livin' in the past, hangin' on to yesterday
walkin' down a sad road only leads a man one way
there are shadows in my eyes, empty fields in my heart
but you brought all the feelings back, an' given me a start!
There'll never be another night like this
a girl like you, to hold an' kiss!
Oh!... there'll never be another night like this
a girl like you, to love!
Touchin' you is touchin' me, like a spirit doin' free
if the end should come, this is the place I'd choose to be
you're a second chance at life, and it's better than the first
for you filled all my senses up, an' quenched a dyin' thirst!
There'll never be another night like this
a girl like you, to hold an' kiss!
Oh!... there'll never be another night like this
a girl like you, to love!
There'll never be
another night like this!
Don't let go!... I won't let go!
Show everything there is to show!
There'll never be another night like this
a girl like you, to hold an' kiss!
Oh!... there'll never be another night like this
a girl like you, to love!
There'll never be
another night like this... [to fade]

Love lyrics - Perry Como
Love, makes lovely out of lonely,
Love, with someone and only,
Time, time to take, time to share,
All that's hiding there, behind your heart,
As you start livin' for, a brighter, surer...
Love, to wrap around a romance,
Love, the dance of the slow dance,
One , one and one making more,
Than any one before,
By knowin' you're in love...
No more, waking up to no one there,
No more, handing out hands of solitaire,
And no more, New Year's Eve with the evening news,
No more blues... No more blues...
Love, love that speaks with a smile,
Knowing all the while, we wanna cry,
But you try smiling deeper, just to keep a...
Love, that writer's write their songs for,
Love, that poetry longs for,
You, and you alone,
Make my loneliness unknown,
An' so you own,
My love!
Love, with someone and only,
Time, time to take, time to share,
All that's hiding there, behind your heart,
As you start livin' for, a brighter, surer...
Love, to wrap around a romance,
Love, the dance of the slow dance,
One , one and one making more,
Than any one before,
By knowin' you're in love...
No more, waking up to no one there,
No more, handing out hands of solitaire,
And no more, New Year's Eve with the evening news,
No more blues... No more blues...
Love, love that speaks with a smile,
Knowing all the while, we wanna cry,
But you try smiling deeper, just to keep a...
Love, that writer's write their songs for,
Love, that poetry longs for,
You, and you alone,
Make my loneliness unknown,
An' so you own,
My love!
When She Smiles lyrics - Perry Como
Even though I loved you,
An' maybe I still do,
I'd rather have the one I'm with than cry again for you...
She don't have your magic,
An' she don't have your style,
But she don't cross her fingers when she smiles!
When she smiles,
She's like a sweet honest child,
She don't cross her fingers when she smiles!
The feeling's still still inside me,
An' I guess it's gonna stay,
I hope that you don't think that I can't turn and walk away,
Someone stood beside me through my heartaches and my trials,
She don't cross her fingers when she smiles!
She don't use the clever moves,
That players like you've known,
She can take me anywhere I'd ever care to go...
And if you think I'm foolin'
Then you can have a laugh on me!
But the day I sell my soul for you,
Is just a memory...
And if I ever see you girl,
I'll stop an' talk awhile,
I'll probably cross my fingers when I smile!
She don't cross her fingers
When she smiles!
She don't cross her fingers,
When she smiles!
An' maybe I still do,
I'd rather have the one I'm with than cry again for you...
She don't have your magic,
An' she don't have your style,
But she don't cross her fingers when she smiles!
When she smiles,
She's like a sweet honest child,
She don't cross her fingers when she smiles!
The feeling's still still inside me,
An' I guess it's gonna stay,
I hope that you don't think that I can't turn and walk away,
Someone stood beside me through my heartaches and my trials,
She don't cross her fingers when she smiles!
She don't use the clever moves,
That players like you've known,
She can take me anywhere I'd ever care to go...
And if you think I'm foolin'
Then you can have a laugh on me!
But the day I sell my soul for you,
Is just a memory...
And if I ever see you girl,
I'll stop an' talk awhile,
I'll probably cross my fingers when I smile!
She don't cross her fingers
When she smiles!
She don't cross her fingers,
When she smiles!
The Colors Of My Life lyrics - Perry Como
The colors of my life, are bountiful and bold
The purple glow of indigo, the gleam of green an' gold
The splendor of a sunrise, the dazzle of a flame,
The glory of a rainbow, will put 'em all to shame
No quiet browns or grays, I'll take my days instead,
And fill them 'till they overflow, with rose and cherry red
And should this sunlit world, grow dark one day,
The colors of my life, will leave a shining light,
To show the way
No quiet browns and grays, I'll take my days instead,
And fill them 'till they overflow, with rose and cherry red
And should that sunlit world, grow dark one day,
The colors of my life, will leave a shining light,
The colors of my life will light the way
The purple glow of indigo, the gleam of green an' gold
The splendor of a sunrise, the dazzle of a flame,
The glory of a rainbow, will put 'em all to shame
No quiet browns or grays, I'll take my days instead,
And fill them 'till they overflow, with rose and cherry red
And should this sunlit world, grow dark one day,
The colors of my life, will leave a shining light,
To show the way
No quiet browns and grays, I'll take my days instead,
And fill them 'till they overflow, with rose and cherry red
And should that sunlit world, grow dark one day,
The colors of my life, will leave a shining light,
The colors of my life will light the way
Save Me The Dance lyrics - Perry Como
Save me the dance
where the lights go down low
save me the one they call
the dance of "love"!
When the room is dark,
every heart's aglow
save me the dance of love
an' never ever let me go!
It's our private song
and our private band
and when the dance is through
forever ever hold my hand!
Save me the dance
where the lights go down low
save me the one they call
the dance of "love"!
[Italian lyrics]
[Chorus x3]
where the lights go down low
save me the one they call
the dance of "love"!
When the room is dark,
every heart's aglow
save me the dance of love
an' never ever let me go!
It's our private song
and our private band
and when the dance is through
forever ever hold my hand!
Save me the dance
where the lights go down low
save me the one they call
the dance of "love"!
[Italian lyrics]
[Chorus x3]
Someone Is Waiting lyrics - Perry Como
Someone is waiting,
Waiting to walk from the shadow of lonely,
In to the sun...
It takes a moment to happen,
Fortune may smile on you,
Only a moment,
And there is the one!
High on a hilltop or in the heart of town,
A touch of the dreamer, won't let you down,
If not tomorrow, then someday,
Somehow in time you'll discover that someone,
Waiting (waiting...)
Waiting, like me!
High on a hilltop or in the heart of town,
A touch of the dreamer, won't let you down,
If not tomorrow, then someday,
Somehow in time you'll discover that someone,
Waiting (waiting...)
Like me!
Waiting to walk from the shadow of lonely,
In to the sun...
It takes a moment to happen,
Fortune may smile on you,
Only a moment,
And there is the one!
High on a hilltop or in the heart of town,
A touch of the dreamer, won't let you down,
If not tomorrow, then someday,
Somehow in time you'll discover that someone,
Waiting (waiting...)
Waiting, like me!
High on a hilltop or in the heart of town,
A touch of the dreamer, won't let you down,
If not tomorrow, then someday,
Somehow in time you'll discover that someone,
Waiting (waiting...)
Like me!
You Are My World lyrics - Perry Como
If I told you, how I feel inside,
Would you understand the love I'm feelin'
Would you run away and hide?
I do, love you,
And I always will,
Love's not a word I've often spoken,
You make my restless heart stand still!
You are my world, my newborn soul,
Here is my heart for you to hold,
You're every dream of love come true,
Yes, everything I'll ever need is you!
(I will...) I will... (love you...) love you...
(Like no one before...)
An' should you ever ask how much I love you,
I'd say I couldn't love you more!
'Cause you're my world, my newborn soul,
Here is my heart for you to hold,
You're every dream of love come true,
Yes, everything I'll ever need is you!
(You're every dream of love come true...)
Yes, everything I'll ever need is you!
Would you understand the love I'm feelin'
Would you run away and hide?
I do, love you,
And I always will,
Love's not a word I've often spoken,
You make my restless heart stand still!
You are my world, my newborn soul,
Here is my heart for you to hold,
You're every dream of love come true,
Yes, everything I'll ever need is you!
(I will...) I will... (love you...) love you...
(Like no one before...)
An' should you ever ask how much I love you,
I'd say I couldn't love you more!
'Cause you're my world, my newborn soul,
Here is my heart for you to hold,
You're every dream of love come true,
Yes, everything I'll ever need is you!
(You're every dream of love come true...)
Yes, everything I'll ever need is you!
And I Love You So lyrics - Perry Como
(originally by Don McLean)
And I love you so
The people ask me how
How I've lived till now
I tell them I don't know
I guess they understand
How lonely life has been
But life began again
The day you took my hand
And yes I know
How lonely life can be
The shadows follow me
And the night won't set me free
But I don't let the evening get me down
Now that your around me
And you love me too
Your thoughts are just for me
You set my spirit free
I'm happy that you do
The book of life is brief
And once the page is read
All but life is dead
That is my belief
And yes I know
How lonely life can be
The shadows follow me
And the night won't set me free
But I don't let the evening get me down
Now that your around me
And I love you so
The people ask me how
How I've lived till now
I tell them I don't know
I guess they understand
How lonely life has been
But life began again
The day you took my hand
And yes I know
How lonely life can be
The shadows follow me
And the night won't set me free
But I don't let the evening get me down
Now that your around me
And you love me too
Your thoughts are just for me
You set my spirit free
I'm happy that you do
The book of life is brief
And once the page is read
All but life is dead
That is my belief
And yes I know
How lonely life can be
The shadows follow me
And the night won't set me free
But I don't let the evening get me down
Now that your around me
Killing Me Softly With Her Song lyrics - Perry Como
I heard she sang a good song,
I heard she had a style,
And so I came to see her,
To listen for a while...
And there she was this young girl,
A stranger to my eyes...
Strummin' my pain with her fingers,
Singin' my life with her words,
Killing me softly with her song,
Killing me softly, with her song,
Telling my whole life with her words,
Killing me softly, with her song...
I felt all flushed with fever,
Embarrassed by the crowd,
I felt she found my letters,
And read each one aloud...
I prayed that she would finish,
But she just kept right on...
Strummin' my pain with her fingers,
Singin' my life with her words,
Killing me softly with her song,
Killing me softly, with her song,
Telling my whole life with her words,
Killing me softly, with her song...
She sang as if she knew me,
In all my dark despair,
And then she looked right through me,
As if I wasn't there...
But she was there, this stranger,
Singing clear and strong...
Strummin' my pain with her fingers,
Singin' my life with her words,
Killing me softly with her song,
Killing me softly, with her song,
Telling my whole life with her words,
Killing me softly, with her song...
Killing me softly, with her song...
I heard she had a style,
And so I came to see her,
To listen for a while...
And there she was this young girl,
A stranger to my eyes...
Strummin' my pain with her fingers,
Singin' my life with her words,
Killing me softly with her song,
Killing me softly, with her song,
Telling my whole life with her words,
Killing me softly, with her song...
I felt all flushed with fever,
Embarrassed by the crowd,
I felt she found my letters,
And read each one aloud...
I prayed that she would finish,
But she just kept right on...
Strummin' my pain with her fingers,
Singin' my life with her words,
Killing me softly with her song,
Killing me softly, with her song,
Telling my whole life with her words,
Killing me softly, with her song...
She sang as if she knew me,
In all my dark despair,
And then she looked right through me,
As if I wasn't there...
But she was there, this stranger,
Singing clear and strong...
Strummin' my pain with her fingers,
Singin' my life with her words,
Killing me softly with her song,
Killing me softly, with her song,
Telling my whole life with her words,
Killing me softly, with her song...
Killing me softly, with her song...
For The Good Times lyrics - Perry Como
Don't look so sad, I know it's over,
But life goes on and this ol' world will keep on turning.
Let's just be glad we had some time to spend together,
There's no need to watch the bridges that we're burning.
Lay your head upon my pillow,
Hold your warm and tender body close to mine,
Hear the whisper of the raindrops blowing soft across the window,
And make believe you love me one more time,
For the good times...
I'll get along, you'll find another,
And I'll be here if you should find you ever need me,
Don't say a word about tomorrow, or forever,
There'll be time enough for sadness when you leave me...
Lay your head upon my pillow,
Hold your warm and tender body close to mine,
Hear the whisper of the raindrops blowing soft across the window,
And make believe you love me one more time,
For the good times...
For the good times...
But life goes on and this ol' world will keep on turning.
Let's just be glad we had some time to spend together,
There's no need to watch the bridges that we're burning.
Lay your head upon my pillow,
Hold your warm and tender body close to mine,
Hear the whisper of the raindrops blowing soft across the window,
And make believe you love me one more time,
For the good times...
I'll get along, you'll find another,
And I'll be here if you should find you ever need me,
Don't say a word about tomorrow, or forever,
There'll be time enough for sadness when you leave me...
Lay your head upon my pillow,
Hold your warm and tender body close to mine,
Hear the whisper of the raindrops blowing soft across the window,
And make believe you love me one more time,
For the good times...
For the good times...
Aubrey lyrics - Perry Como
And Aubrey was her name,
And not so very ordinary girl, or name...
But who's to blame,
For a love that wouldn't bloom,
For the hearts that never played in tune?
Like a lovely melody,
That everyone can sing,
Take away the words that rhyme.
It doesn't mean a thing... hmmmm
And Aubrey was her name,
We tripped the light,
And danced together to the moon,
But where was June?
No, it never came around,
If it did, it never made a sound...
Maybe I was absent,
Or was listening too fast,
Catching all the words,
But then, the meaning going past... hmmmm
Oh, how I miss the girl,
And I'd go a thousand times around the world,
Just to be,
Closer to her, than to me.
And Aubrey was her name,
I never knew her,
But I loved her just the same,
I loved her name...
Wish that I had found a way,
And the reasons that would make her stay...
I have learned to lead a life,
Apart from all the rest,
If I can't have the one I want.
I'll go without the best... hmmmm
Oh, how I miss the girl,
And I'd go a million times around the world,
Just to say,
She had been mine for a day!
And not so very ordinary girl, or name...
But who's to blame,
For a love that wouldn't bloom,
For the hearts that never played in tune?
Like a lovely melody,
That everyone can sing,
Take away the words that rhyme.
It doesn't mean a thing... hmmmm
And Aubrey was her name,
We tripped the light,
And danced together to the moon,
But where was June?
No, it never came around,
If it did, it never made a sound...
Maybe I was absent,
Or was listening too fast,
Catching all the words,
But then, the meaning going past... hmmmm
Oh, how I miss the girl,
And I'd go a thousand times around the world,
Just to be,
Closer to her, than to me.
And Aubrey was her name,
I never knew her,
But I loved her just the same,
I loved her name...
Wish that I had found a way,
And the reasons that would make her stay...
I have learned to lead a life,
Apart from all the rest,
If I can't have the one I want.
I'll go without the best... hmmmm
Oh, how I miss the girl,
And I'd go a million times around the world,
Just to say,
She had been mine for a day!

I Want To Give lyrics - Perry Como
I wanna give,
I wanna give my love to you completely,
I beg of you,
I beg of you to listen to my heart!
I've never prayed like this before,
And I'm askin' you not to close the door,
For I can tame the wind and smooth the waters,
If you just let me!

I wanna give,
I wanna give you all the strength within me,
To make a world,

And you can sit upon a throne,

If you just let me!

Tie A Yellow Ribbon Round The Ole Oak Tree lyrics - Perry Como
I'm comin' home, I've done my time,

It All Seems To Fall Into Line lyrics - Perry Como
Something's missin', when you hold me,
You don't whisper that you're mine,
Oh it all seems to fall into line!
Every promise that you make me,
Breaks like bubbles in the wine,
And it all seems to fall into line!
In a fog that isn't lifting,
We are drifting apart,
I can see someone's replaced me in your heart!
There's a coolness in your kisses,
That is only one more sign,
How it all seems to fall into line!
In a fog that isn't lifting,
We are drifting apart,
I can see someone's replaced me in your heart!
There's a coolness in your kisses,
That is only one more sign,
How it all seems to fall into line!
Yes it all seems to fall into line!
You don't whisper that you're mine,
Oh it all seems to fall into line!
Every promise that you make me,
Breaks like bubbles in the wine,
And it all seems to fall into line!
In a fog that isn't lifting,
We are drifting apart,
I can see someone's replaced me in your heart!
There's a coolness in your kisses,
That is only one more sign,
How it all seems to fall into line!
In a fog that isn't lifting,
We are drifting apart,
I can see someone's replaced me in your heart!
There's a coolness in your kisses,
That is only one more sign,
How it all seems to fall into line!
Yes it all seems to fall into line!

It's Impossible lyrics - Perry Como
It's impossible, tell the sun to leave the sky
It's just impossible
It's impossible, ask a baby not to cry
It's just impossible
Can I hold you closer to me
And not feel you going through me
Split the second hat I never think of you
Oh, how impossible
Can the ocean keep from rushing to the shore
It's just impossible
If I had you, could I ever want for more
It's just impossible
And tomorrow
Should you ask me for the world, somehow I'd get it
I would sell my very soul and not regret it
For to live without your love
It's just impossible
Can the ocean keep from rushing to the shore
It's just impossible
If I had you, could I ever want for more
It's just impossible
And tomorrow
Should you ask me for the world, somehow I'd get it
I would sell my very soul and not regret it
For to live without your love
It's just impossible
Impossible, mmm
Impossible
It's just impossible
It's impossible, ask a baby not to cry
It's just impossible
Can I hold you closer to me
And not feel you going through me
Split the second hat I never think of you
Oh, how impossible
Can the ocean keep from rushing to the shore
It's just impossible
If I had you, could I ever want for more
It's just impossible
And tomorrow
Should you ask me for the world, somehow I'd get it
I would sell my very soul and not regret it
For to live without your love
It's just impossible
Can the ocean keep from rushing to the shore
It's just impossible
If I had you, could I ever want for more
It's just impossible
And tomorrow
Should you ask me for the world, somehow I'd get it
I would sell my very soul and not regret it
For to live without your love
It's just impossible
Impossible, mmm
Impossible
Raindrops Keep Fallin' On My Head lyrics - Perry Como
Raindrops keep fallin' on my head,
An' just like the guy who's feet are too big for his bed,
Nothin' seems to fit,
Those raindrops are fallin' on my head,
They keep fallin'...
So I just did me some talkin' to the sun,
And I said I didn't like the way he got things done,
Sleepin' on the job,
Those raindrops are fallin' on my head,
They keep fallin'...
But there's one thing, I know,
The blues they send to meet me,
Won't defeat me,
It won't be long 'till happiness
Steps up to greet me...
[instrumental bridge]
Raindrops keep fallin' on my head,
But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turnin' red,
Cryin's not for me,
'Cause, I'm never gonna stop the rain by complainin'
Because I'm free
Nothin's worryin' me
Nothin's worryin' me...
But there's one thing, I know,
The blues they send to meet me,
Won't defeat me,
It won't be long 'till happiness
Steps up to greet me...
...one two three four
five six seven eight...
Raindrops keep fallin' on my head,
But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turnin' red,
Cryin's not for me,
'Cause, I'm never gonna stop the rain by complainin'
Because I'm free
Nothin's worryin' me
Nothin's worryin' me...
An' just like the guy who's feet are too big for his bed,
Nothin' seems to fit,
Those raindrops are fallin' on my head,
They keep fallin'...
So I just did me some talkin' to the sun,
And I said I didn't like the way he got things done,
Sleepin' on the job,
Those raindrops are fallin' on my head,
They keep fallin'...
But there's one thing, I know,
The blues they send to meet me,
Won't defeat me,
It won't be long 'till happiness
Steps up to greet me...

Something lyrics - Perry Como
(originally by The Beatles)
Something in the way she moves
Attracts me like no other lover
Something in the way she woos me
I don't wanna leave her now
You know I believe in how
Don't wanna leave her now
Somewhere in her smile, she knows
That I don't need no other lover
Something in her style that shows me
I don't wanna leave her now
You know I believe in how
Don't wanna leave her now
You're asking me will my love grow
I don't know, I don't know
You stick around now, it may show
I don't know, I don't know
Something in the way she knows
And all I have to do is think of her
Something in the things she shows me
I don't wanna leave her now
You know I believe in how
Don't wanna leave her now
You're asking me will my love grow
I don't know, I don't know
You stick around now, it may show
I don't know, I don't know
Something in the way she moves
Attracts me like no other lover
Something in the way she woos me
I don't want to leave her now
You know I believe in how
Don't wanna leave her now
Don't wanna leave her now
Something in the way she moves
Attracts me like no other lover
Something in the way she woos me
I don't wanna leave her now
You know I believe in how
Don't wanna leave her now
Somewhere in her smile, she knows
That I don't need no other lover
Something in her style that shows me
I don't wanna leave her now
You know I believe in how
Don't wanna leave her now
You're asking me will my love grow
I don't know, I don't know
You stick around now, it may show
I don't know, I don't know
Something in the way she knows
And all I have to do is think of her
Something in the things she shows me
I don't wanna leave her now
You know I believe in how
Don't wanna leave her now
You're asking me will my love grow
I don't know, I don't know
You stick around now, it may show
I don't know, I don't know
Something in the way she moves
Attracts me like no other lover
Something in the way she woos me
I don't want to leave her now
You know I believe in how
Don't wanna leave her now
Don't wanna leave her now
Snowbird lyrics - Perry Como
Snowbird (snowbird)
Come fly away! (come fly away!)
With me! (with me!) with me! (with me!)
Beneath this snowy mantle cold and clean,
The unborn grass lies waitin' for it's coat to turn to green!
The snowbird sings the song he always sings,
And speaks to me of flowers that will bloom again in spring!
When I was young, my heart was young then too,
Anything that it would tell me, that's the thing that I would do.
But now I feel such emptiness within,
For the thing I want the most in life is the thing that I can't win!
(spread your tiny wings and fly away...
And take the snow back with you where it came from on that day!)
The one I love forever is untrue,
And if I could you know I that would fly away with you!
The breeze along the river seems to say,
That she'll only break my heart again should I decide to stay!
So little snowbird take me with you when you go,
To that land of gentle breezes where the peaceful waters flow!
[repeat last two verses]
If I could, you know that I would fly away with you!
Snowbird (snowbird)
Come fly away! (come fly away!)
With me! (with me!) with me! (with me!)
Little snowbird (snowbird)
Come fly away! (come fly away!)
With me! (with me!) with me! (with me!)
Little snowbird (snowbird)
Come fly away...
Come fly away! (come fly away!)
With me! (with me!) with me! (with me!)
Beneath this snowy mantle cold and clean,
The unborn grass lies waitin' for it's coat to turn to green!
The snowbird sings the song he always sings,
And speaks to me of flowers that will bloom again in spring!
When I was young, my heart was young then too,
Anything that it would tell me, that's the thing that I would do.
But now I feel such emptiness within,
For the thing I want the most in life is the thing that I can't win!
(spread your tiny wings and fly away...
And take the snow back with you where it came from on that day!)
The one I love forever is untrue,
And if I could you know I that would fly away with you!
The breeze along the river seems to say,
That she'll only break my heart again should I decide to stay!
So little snowbird take me with you when you go,
To that land of gentle breezes where the peaceful waters flow!
[repeat last two verses]
If I could, you know that I would fly away with you!
Snowbird (snowbird)
Come fly away! (come fly away!)
With me! (with me!) with me! (with me!)
Little snowbird (snowbird)
Come fly away! (come fly away!)
With me! (with me!) with me! (with me!)
Little snowbird (snowbird)
Come fly away...
A House Is Not A Home lyrics - Perry Como
A chair is still a chair
Even when there's no one sittin' there
But a chair is not a house
And a house is not a home
When there's no one there,
To hold you tight
An' no one there
You can kiss goodnight . . .
A room is still a room
Even when there's nothin' there but gloom
But a room is not a house
And a house is not a home
When the two of us
Are far apart
An' one of us
Has a broken heart . . .
Now an' then
I call your name
An' suddenly your face appears
But it's just a crazy game
When it ends
It ends in tears . . .
Darling have a heart
Don't let one mistake keep us apart
I'm not meant to live alone
Turn this house into a home
When I climb the stair
An' turn the key
Oh please be there
Still in love with me . . .
[instrumental bridge]
I'm not meant to live alone
Turn this house into a home
When I climb the stair
An' turn the key
Oh please be there
Still in love with me . . .
Even when there's no one sittin' there
But a chair is not a house
And a house is not a home
When there's no one there,
To hold you tight
An' no one there
You can kiss goodnight . . .
A room is still a room
Even when there's nothin' there but gloom
But a room is not a house
And a house is not a home
When the two of us
Are far apart
An' one of us
Has a broken heart . . .
Now an' then
I call your name
An' suddenly your face appears
But it's just a crazy game
When it ends
It ends in tears . . .
Darling have a heart
Don't let one mistake keep us apart
I'm not meant to live alone
Turn this house into a home
When I climb the stair
An' turn the key
Oh please be there
Still in love with me . . .
[instrumental bridge]
I'm not meant to live alone
Turn this house into a home
When I climb the stair
An' turn the key
Oh please be there
Still in love with me . . .
Everybody Is Lookin' For An Answer lyrics - Perry Como
Everybody is lookin' for an answer,
Now that you've tried your way,
Why don't you try my way?
Everybody is lookin' for a sunrise,
Peace of mind,
Is surely hard to find!
Why don't you think it over,
Before you step into oblivity?
Why don't you think it over,
Before you play your game with destiny?
Everybody is lookin' for an answer,
Now that you've tried your way,
Why don't you try my way?
Everybody is lookin' for a sunrise,
Peace of mind,
Is surely hard to find!
We'll always walk together,
In every kind of weather,
If you will only take my hand!
The joy of understanding,
Is ours without an ending,
Someday we'll find the promise land!
Everybody is lookin' for an answer,
Now that you've tried your way,
Why don't you try my way?
Everybody is lookin' for the sunrise,
Peace of mind,
Is surely hard to find! (Hard to find!)
I hear the church bells ringin'
And now the songs they're singin'
I know you soon will take a stand...
The joy is in forgiving,
And all the while you're living,
You'll only find it's in the plan!
For the world is in His hand!
(In His hand! In His hand!)
Everybody is lookin' for an answer,
Now that you've tried your way,
Why don't you try my way?
Everybody is lookin' for the sunrise,
Peace of mind,
Is surely hard to find!
Everybody is lookin' for an answer,
(Now) that you've tried your way,
Why don't you try my way?
Everybody is lookin' for the sunrise...
Now that you've tried your way,
Why don't you try my way?
Everybody is lookin' for a sunrise,
Peace of mind,

Why don't you think it over,
Before you step into oblivity?
Why don't you think it over,

El Condor Pasa lyrics - Perry Como
I'd rather be a sparrow than a snail,
Yes, I would,
If I could,
I surely would... hmm
I'd rather be a hammer than a nail,
Yes, I would,
If I only could,
I surely would... hmm
Away, I'd rather sail away,
Like a swan that's here and gone...
A man gets tied up to the ground,
He gives the world it's saddest sound,
It's saddest sound... hmm
[instrumental break]
I'd rather be a forest than a street,
Yes, I would,
If I could,
I surely would... hmm
I'd rather feel the earth beneath my feet,
Yes, I would,
If I only could,
I surely would...
Away, I'd rather sail away,
Like a swan that's here and gone...
A man gets tied up to the ground,
He gives the world it's saddest sound,
It's saddest sound...
[instrumental break]
I'd rather feel the earth beneath my feet,
Yes, I would,
If I only could,

(They Long To Be) Close To You lyrics - Perry Como
Why do birds suddenly appear,
Every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be, close to you...
Why do stars fall down from the sky,
Every time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be, close to you...
On the day that you were born,
The angels got together,
An' decided to create a dream come true...
So they sprinkled mood dust in your hair of gold
An' starlight in your eyes of blue...
That is why, all the boys in town,
Follow you, all around,
Just like me, they long to be, close to you!
On the day that you were born,
The angels got together,
An' decided to create a dream come true...
So they sprinkled mood dust in your hair of gold
An' starlight in your eyes of blue...
That is why, all the boys in town,
Follow you, all around,
Just like me, they long to be, close to you...
Why?
Close to you...
Why?
Close to you...
Why?
Close to you...
Just like me, they long to be...
Close to you... (Close to you, close to you...)
Every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be, close to you...
Why do stars fall down from the sky,
Every time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be, close to you...
On the day that you were born,
The angels got together,
An' decided to create a dream come true...
So they sprinkled mood dust in your hair of gold
An' starlight in your eyes of blue...
That is why, all the boys in town,
Follow you, all around,
Just like me, they long to be, close to you!
On the day that you were born,
The angels got together,
An' decided to create a dream come true...
So they sprinkled mood dust in your hair of gold
An' starlight in your eyes of blue...
That is why, all the boys in town,
Follow you, all around,
Just like me, they long to be, close to you...
Why?
Close to you...
Why?
Close to you...
Why?
Close to you...
Just like me, they long to be...
Close to you... (Close to you, close to you...)
I Think I Love You lyrics - Perry Como
I'm sleepin'
An' right in the middle of a good dream
Like all at once I wake up
From somethin' that keeps knockin' at my brain
Before I go insane
I hold my pillow to my head
An' spring up in my bed
Screamin' out the words I dread
I think I love you! (I think I love you!)
This mornin'
I woke up with this feelin'
I didn't know how to deal with
An' so I just decided to myself
I'd hide it to myself
An' never talk about it
An' didn't I go and shout it
When you walked into my room
I think I love you! (I think I love you!)
I think I love you!
So what am I so afraid of?
I'm afraid that I'm not sure of
A love there is no cure for!
I think I love you!
Isn't that what life is made of?
Though it worries me to say
That I never felt this way!
[instrumental break]
(I don't know what I'm up against
I don't know what it's all about
I got so much to think about)
Hey! I think I love you
So what am I so afraid of?
I'm afraid that I'm not sure of
A love there is no cure for!
I think I love you!
Isn't that what life is made of?
Though it worries me to say
That I never felt this way!
Believe me
You really didn't have to worry
I only wanna make ya happy
An' if you say "hey! go away!"
I will
But I think better
Still, I'd better stay around an' love you
Do you think I have a chance?
Let me ask you to your face
Do you think you love me?
I think I love you!
(do you think you love me?)
I think I love you!
(do you think you love me?)
I think I love you!
(do you think you love me?)
I think I love you!
An' right in the middle of a good dream
Like all at once I wake up
From somethin' that keeps knockin' at my brain
Before I go insane
I hold my pillow to my head
An' spring up in my bed
Screamin' out the words I dread
I think I love you! (I think I love you!)

We've Only Just Begun lyrics - Perry Como
We've only just begun, to live,
White lace an' promises,
A kiss for luck an' we're on our way...
(We've only just begun!)
Before the rising sun, we fly,
So many roads to choose,
We start out walkin' an' learn to run...
An' yes, we've just begun...
Sharin' horizons that are new to us,
Watchin' the signs along the way,
Talkin' it over, just the two of us,
Workin' together day to day...
Together... (Together!)
An' when the evening comes, we smile,
So much of life ahead,
We'll find a place where there's room to grow...
We've only just begun (...just begun!)
We've only just begun (We've only just begun!)
Sharin' horizons that are new to us,
Watchin' the signs along the way,
Talkin' it over, just the two of us,
Workin' together day to day...
Together... (Together!)
An' when the evening comes, we smile,
So much of life ahead,
We'll find a place where there's room to grow...
We've only just begun (...just begun!)

We've only just begun...
White lace an' promises,

How Insensitive (Insensatez) lyrics - Perry Como
How insensitive... I must have seemed
When she told me that she loved me...
How unmoved an' cold... I must have seemed
When she told me so sincerely...
Why... she must have asked
Do I just turn an' stare in icy silence?
What was I to say...
What can you say when a love affair is over?
[instrumental break]
Now, she's gone away
And I'm alone with a memory of her last look...
Vague an' drawn an' sad... I see it still
All her heartbreak in that last look...
How... she must have asked
Could I just turn an' stare in icy silence?
What was I to do...
What can one do when a love affair is over?
What can you do
When a love affair is over?
It's over...
When she told me that she loved me...
How unmoved an' cold... I must have seemed
When she told me so sincerely...
Why... she must have asked
Do I just turn an' stare in icy silence?
What was I to say...
What can you say when a love affair is over?
[instrumental break]
Now, she's gone away
And I'm alone with a memory of her last look...
Vague an' drawn an' sad... I see it still
All her heartbreak in that last look...
How... she must have asked
Could I just turn an' stare in icy silence?
What was I to do...
What can one do when a love affair is over?
What can you do
When a love affair is over?
It's over...
Stay With Me lyrics - Perry Como
Stay with me... stay with me
don't leave me now when you know how I depend on you
every day... every way
my little world revolves all around you...
Before you came my way, my days were grim an' gray
but then you smiled, an' I knew dear
my dreams had come true dear...
Love is mine... you are mine...
Now, life is sweet...
let me keep the love you've brought to me
Say it's for... evermore
say that you'll stay with me!
[instrumental break]
Say it's for... evermore

my little world revolves all around you...
Before you came my way, my days were grim an' gray
but then you smiled, an' I knew dear
my dreams had come true dear...
Love is mine... you are mine...
Now, life is sweet...

please say that you'll stay... with me!
The Shadow Of Your Smile lyrics - Perry Como
One day we walked along the sand
One day in early spring...
You held a piper in your hand
To mend it's broken wing
Now, I'll remember many a day
An' many a lonely mile
The echo of a piper's song
An' the shadow of a smile!
The shadow of your smile
When you are gone...
Will color all my dreams
And light the dawn...
Look into my eyes, my love, and see
All the lovely things you are... you are to me!
Our wistful little star
Was far too high...
A teardrop kissed your lips
And so did I...
Now, when I remember spring,
All the joy that love can bring...
I will be remembering,
The shadow of your smile!
[instrumental break]
Now, when I remember spring,
All the joy that love can bring...
I will be remembering,
The shadow of your smile!
One day in early spring...
You held a piper in your hand
To mend it's broken wing
Now, I'll remember many a day
An' many a lonely mile
The echo of a piper's song
An' the shadow of a smile!
The shadow of your smile
When you are gone...
Will color all my dreams
And light the dawn...
Look into my eyes, my love, and see
All the lovely things you are... you are to me!
Our wistful little star
Was far too high...
A teardrop kissed your lips
And so did I...
Now, when I remember spring,
All the joy that love can bring...
I will be remembering,
The shadow of your smile!
[instrumental break]
Now, when I remember spring,
All the joy that love can bring...
I will be remembering,
The shadow of your smile!
Meditation (Meditação) lyrics - Perry Como
In my loneliness...
when you're gone and I'm all by myself,
an' I need your caress,
I just think of you, and the thought of you holding me near
makes my loneliness soon disappear...
Though you're far away,
I have only to close my eyes and you are back to stay,
I just close my eyes and the sadness missing you brings,
soon is gong and this heart of mine sings
yes, I love you so, and that for me is all I need to know...
I will wait for you,
'till the sun falls out of the sky, for what else can I do?
I will wait for you,
meditating how sweet life will be when you come back to me...
[instrumental break]
I will wait for you, meditating how sweet life will be when you come back to me...
Became these quiet nights of loving you!
(I will wait for you...) Come back to me...
when you're gone and I'm all by myself,
an' I need your caress,
I just think of you, and the thought of you holding me near
makes my loneliness soon disappear...
Though you're far away,
I have only to close my eyes and you are back to stay,
I just close my eyes and the sadness missing you brings,
soon is gong and this heart of mine sings
yes, I love you so, and that for me is all I need to know...
I will wait for you,
'till the sun falls out of the sky, for what else can I do?
I will wait for you,
meditating how sweet life will be when you come back to me...
[instrumental break]
I will wait for you, meditating how sweet life will be when you come back to me...
Became these quiet nights of loving you!
(I will wait for you...) Come back to me...
And Roses And Roses lyrics - Perry Como
Everyday I sent another present,
Just to let her know how very much I care...
Wrote a little love note with each present,
But it didn't seem to get me anywhere...
My poor worried heart was almost certain,
That this love affair would never be...
Then I sent a dozen yellow roses,
Then from that moment she belonged to me...
Roses, roses, roses I thank all the roses
That bloom in the spring...
Love is a wonderful thing,
The rest of my life I will bring her
Roses and roses and roses of love...
Roses, roses, roses I thank you for saying
What I couldn't say...
Oh!, what a wonderful way,
To tell her, "I Love You" each day,
With roses and roses and roses of love...
And roses and roses and roses of love,
And roses and roses and roses...
Just to let her know how very much I care...
Wrote a little love note with each present,
But it didn't seem to get me anywhere...
My poor worried heart was almost certain,
That this love affair would never be...
Then I sent a dozen yellow roses,
Then from that moment she belonged to me...
Roses, roses, roses I thank all the roses
That bloom in the spring...
Love is a wonderful thing,
The rest of my life I will bring her
Roses and roses and roses of love...
Roses, roses, roses I thank you for saying
What I couldn't say...
Oh!, what a wonderful way,
To tell her, "I Love You" each day,
With roses and roses and roses of love...
And roses and roses and roses of love,
And roses and roses and roses...
Yesterday lyrics - Perry Como
Why she had to go,
I don't know, she wouldn't say
I said something wrong,
now I long for yesterday!
Yesterday... all my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh I believe in yesterday!
Suddenly... I'm not half the man I used to be
There's a shadow hanging over me
Oh yesterday came suddenly!
Why she had to go,
I don't know, she wouldn't say
I said something wrong,
now I long for yesterday!
[instrumental break]
Yesterday... love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh I believe in yesterday!
Oh I believe in yesterday!
I don't know, she wouldn't say
I said something wrong,
now I long for yesterday!
Yesterday... all my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh I believe in yesterday!
Suddenly... I'm not half the man I used to be

Oh yesterday came suddenly!
Why she had to go,
I don't know, she wouldn't say
I said something wrong,

Yesterday... love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh I believe in yesterday!

Dindi lyrics - Perry Como
Sky, so vast as the sky
with far away clouds just wandering by...
Where did 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 an' searching for you,
like a river, that can't find the sea,
that would be me, without you my Dindi!
[instrumental break]
Don't you know Dindi...

Baiá lyrics - Perry Como
Oh Baiá... when twilight is deep in the sky... Baiá
Someone that I long to see, keeps haunting my memory
An' so the loneliness deep in my heart calls to you, calls to you!
(Oh Baiá...) Oh Baiá...
(I live in the memory of many dreams ago,
when the stars were bright and you were mine alone...
My love for you can not die, though the oceans run dry
or heaven's call from the sky, now you're gone!)
Baiá... can't you hear my lonely call?...
Morea... make my life complete again!
How I pray for the day when I'll see you smile
an' my heart will beat again!
Oh Baiá... when twilight is deep in the sky... Baiá
Someone that I long to see, keeps haunting my memory
An' so the loneliness deep in my heart calls to you, calls to you!

Once I Loved lyrics - Perry Como
Once I loved...
And I gave so much love to this love
It was the world to me!
Once I cried...
At the thought I was foolish an' proud
And let you say goodbye!
Then, one day...
From my infinite sadness you came
And brought me love again!
Now I know...
That no matter whatever befalls
I'll never let you go!
I will hold you close... make you stay
Because love is the saddest thing
When it goes away...
...love is the saddest thing
When it goes away...

I will hold you close... make you stay

Manhã De Carnaval lyrics - Perry Como
I'll sing to the sun in the sky,
I'll sing 'till the sun rises high,
Carnival time is here,
Magical time of year,
And as the time draws near,
Dreams lift my heart!
I'll sing as I play my guitar,
I'll cling to a dream from afar,
Will love come my way,
This Carnival day,
And stay here in my heart?
Will true love come my way,
On this Carnival day,
Or will I be alone with my dream?
I'll sing 'till the sun rises high,
Carnival time is here,
Magical time of year,
And as the time draws near,
Dreams lift my heart!
I'll sing as I play my guitar,
I'll cling to a dream from afar,
Will love come my way,
This Carnival day,
And stay here in my heart?
Will true love come my way,
On this Carnival day,
Or will I be alone with my dream?
Quiet Nights Of Quiet Stars (Corcovado) lyrics - Perry Como
Quiet nights 'n quiet stars, quiet chords from my guitar
Floating on the silence that surrounds us
Quiet thoughts 'n quiet dreams, quiet walks by quiet streams
Climbing hills where lovers go to watch the world below together
We will live eternally in this mood of reverie
Away... from all the earthly cares around us
My world was dull each minute until I found you in it
And all at once the happiness I knew,
Became these quiet nights of loving you!
[instrumental break]
We will live eternally in this mood of reverie
Away . . . from all the earthly cares around us
My world was dull each minute until I found you in it
And all at once the happiness I knew,
Became these quiet nights of loving you!
Hmmm...
Floating on the silence that surrounds us
Quiet thoughts 'n quiet dreams, quiet walks by quiet streams
Climbing hills where lovers go to watch the world below together
We will live eternally in this mood of reverie
Away... from all the earthly cares around us
My world was dull each minute until I found you in it
And all at once the happiness I knew,
Became these quiet nights of loving you!
[instrumental break]
We will live eternally in this mood of reverie
Away . . . from all the earthly cares around us
My world was dull each minute until I found you in it
And all at once the happiness I knew,
Became these quiet nights of loving you!
Hmmm...
Souvenir d'Italie lyrics - Perry Como
The moonlight reflected the Mediterranean splendour
The silvery sand was a magical carpet of white
We shared with each other our kisses and willing surrender
And promised each other that we would remember that night
Then we had to part broken hearted
You gave me a shell as we parted ...
You told me to listen
For it had a message for me
Pretty shell that we found by the sea
Souvenir d'italie!
Pretty shell that I took home with me
Souvenir d'Italie!
Even though we are so far apart
Still the shell speaks to me
And a voice that is yours
Calls me back to your shores
Voice of love ...
Souvenir d'Italie!
Ma perché non mi fai piú dormire
Solo tu, me lo puoi dire
Te ne sei andata cosí
E mi lasci partire
Souvenir, souvenir d'Italie!
The silvery sand was a magical carpet of white
We shared with each other our kisses and willing surrender
And promised each other that we would remember that night
Then we had to part broken hearted
You gave me a shell as we parted ...

Pretty shell that we found by the sea
Souvenir d'italie!
Pretty shell that I took home with me
Souvenir d'Italie!
Even though we are so far apart
Still the shell speaks to me
And a voice that is yours
Calls me back to your shores
Voice of love ...
Souvenir d'Italie!
Ma perché non mi fai piú dormire
Solo tu, me lo puoi dire
Te ne sei andata cosí

Souvenir, souvenir d'Italie!

Cominciamo Ad Amarci lyrics - Perry Como
Cominciamo ad amarci questa sera.
Cominciamo con un bacio piano piano.
Poi diremo le cose di sempre
ma saranno come nuove per noi.

Traveling Down A Lonely Road (Love Theme From 'La Strada') lyrics - Perry Como
Why am I alone?
Why am I alone,
Traveling down a lonely road?
Darling, can't you see?
I don't wanna be,
Traveling down a lonely road.
If you would open up your heart

You'd know how much
I wanna walk the road with you...
Won't you understand?
Won't you take my hand?
It's been such a lonely road...

I've got a yearning to caress you,
One thought keeps burning in my soul,
A hungry yearning to possess you,
It's far beyond control!
I want your love for now, forever,

Un Giorno Dopo L'altro lyrics - Pery Como
(one day is like another)
One day is like another,
The sun climbs in the sky,
The twilight brings the echo,
Of your last goodbye!
One day is like another,
The waves cry on the shore,
This empty world is whirling,
Like the day before!
The stars above are quiet eyes,
They only watch to see if we're together,
They never seem to realize,
You didn't mean your love would last forever!
The sun will rise tomorrow,
And circle in the blue,
One day is like another,
Lonely without you!
Un giorno dopo l'altro
La vita se ne va.
Doani sará un giorno uguale a ieri.
Un giorno dopo l'altro,
One day is like another...
One day is like another,
The sun climbs in the sky,
The twilight brings the echo,
Of your last goodbye!
One day is like another,
The waves cry on the shore,
This empty world is whirling,
Like the day before!
The stars above are quiet eyes,
They only watch to see if we're together,
They never seem to realize,
You didn't mean your love would last forever!
The sun will rise tomorrow,
And circle in the blue,
One day is like another,
Lonely without you!
Un giorno dopo l'altro
La vita se ne va.
Doani sará un giorno uguale a ieri.
Un giorno dopo l'altro,
One day is like another...
