Its Too Hot For Words
Its too hot for words
Why bother with conversation
Dont lets talk or even walk
If you want to make love, okay
Its too hot for words
Theres nothing like relaxation
Cant ignore this temperature
But if you want to make love, okay
Lets find a cozy nook
Beside a babbling brook
Lets find a shady tree
Let the love birds talk for you and me
Cause its much too hot for words
Why bother with conversation
Goodness knows my heart disclose
All it dares to say
All it cares to say
Its too hot for words

One Never Knows, Does One?
Mack gordon / harry revel
One never knows, does one?
When love will come along
Then so suddenly life turns out to be a song
One never knows, does one?
The moment or the place
Then right before your eyes
Someone occupies your embrace
Someday look and youll find
Two hearts were blest
Someday fate may be kind
Pray for the future
Hope for the best
One never knows, does one?
Thats just the way it goes
All at once you hear
Hold me. caress me
And then love may come
But when, one never knows

Well Be Together Again
Carl fischer / frankie laine
No tears
No fears
Remember theres always tomorrow
So what if we have to part
Well be together again
Your kiss
Your smile
Are memories Ill treasure forever
So try thinking with your heart
Well be together again
*:
Times when I know youll be lonesome
Times when I know youll be sad
Dont let temptation surround you
Dont let the blues make you bad
Some day
Some way
We both have a lifetime before us
For parting is not goodbye

Blue Moon (live)
Richard Rodgers / Lorenz Hart
Blue moon,
you saw me standing alone
without a dream in my heart
without a love on my own.
Blue moon,
you knew just what I was there for
you heard me saying a prayer for
somebody I realy could care for.
And then there suddenly appeared before me,
the only one my arms will ever hold
I heard somebody whisper, "Please adore me."
and when I looked,
the moon had turned to gold.
Blue moon,
now I'm lo longer alone
without a dream in my heart
without a love of my own.

Ghost Of Yesterday
Irene wilson / arthur herzog jr.
Ghost of yesterday
Stalking round my room
All night long you stay
Walk around profound gloom
When the darkness falls
When Ive gone to bed
Weirdly come your calls
Mournfully, scornfully dead
Folly of a love I strangled
Pulsing heart I thought was gone
Gives no peace
Will not cease
Prowling round till dawn
Ghost of yesterday
Every night youre here
Whispering away
Might have been, might have been, oh, my dear
Foolish heart must pay
Ghost of yesterday

Left Alone
Billie holiday / mal waldron
Wheres the love thats made to fill my heart?
Wheres the one from whom Ill never part?
First they hurt me, then desert me
Im left alone, all alone
Theres no house that I can call my home
Theres no place from which Ill never roam
Town or city, its a pity
Im left alone, all alone
Seek and find they always say
But up to now its not that way
Maybe fate has let him pass me by
Or perhaps well meet before I die
Hearts will open, but until then
Im left alone, all alone

Strange Fruit
Lewis allen
Southern trees bear strange fruit,
Blood on the leaves and blood at the root,
Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze,
Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees.
Pastoral scene of the gallant south,
The bulging eyes and the twisted mouth,
Scent of magnolias, sweet and fresh,
Then the sudden smell of burning flesh.
Here is fruit for the crows to pluck,
For the rain to gather, for the wind to suck,
For the sun to rot, for the trees to drop,
Here is a strange and bitter crop.

Im All For You
Bresler / wynn
Let our friends say what they want to say
If Im wrong Ill be the one to pay
No matter if its true
Youll find that Im all for you
Let the cards predict well drift apart
And the stars forfeit of broken heart
No matter it they do
Youll find that Im all for you
I only know come what may
Youll always find me by your side
I may be a fool
Time alone will decide
Let them all say that its just a game
And Im sure to lose
But just the same no matter if I do
Youll find that Im all for you

When Your Lover Has Gone
Einar aaron swan
What good is the scheming, the planning and dreaming
That comes with each new love affair
The dreams that we cherish, so often might perish
And leaves you with castles in air
When youre alone, who cares for starlit skies
When youre alone, the magic moonlight dies
At break of dawn, there is no sunrise
When your lover has gone
What lonely hours, the evening shadows bring
What lonely hours, with memories lingering
Like faded flowers, life cant mean anything
When your lover has gone

I Got It Bad
Duke ellington / paul f. webster
Though folks with good intentions
Tell me to save my tears
Well i'm so mad about him
I can't live without him
Never treats me sweet and gentle
The way he should
I've got it bad
And that ain't good
And when the weekend's over
And monday rolls around
I end up like i start out
Just crying my heart out
He don't love me like i love him
No, nobody could
I've got it bad
And that ain't good
Lord above me, make him love me
The way he should
I got it bad
