Without Your Love
Johnny lange / stryker
Without your love
Im like a song without words
Just like a nest without birds
Without your love
Fine sun above
Will never shine at my door
My life holds nothing in store
Without your love
I rode the crest of a wave
With you beside me
Now whos to guide me
Because Im lost at sea
Without your love
Im like a plane without wings
A violin with no strings
Without your love
Ive rode the crest of a wave
With you beside me
Now whos to guide me

Glad To Be Unhappy
Lorenz hart / richard rodgers
Look at yorself.
If you had the sense of humor,
You would laught to beat the band.
Look at yourself.
Do you still belive in rumor
That romance is simply grand?
Since you took it right
On the chin,
You have lost that bright
Toothpaste grin.
My mental state is all a jumble.
I sit around and sadly mumble.
Fools rush in, so here I am,
Very glad to be unhappy.
Unrequited loves a bore,
And Ive got it pretty bad.
But for someone you adore,
Its a pleasure to be sad
Like a straying baby lamb

Youre Gonna See A Lot Of Me
A. hoffman / a. goodhard / m. curtis
Im gonna get you, Im gonna get you
Ill make you love me, wait and see
Both day and night and night and day
Youre gonna see a lot of me
Im gonna haunt you, Im gonna haunt you
Oh what a pest Im gonna be
Both day and night and night and day
Youre gonna see a lot of me
Ill be the spoon in your coffee
The knife that butters your bread
If I sound a little bit off it
Thats because because because
Youve gone to my head
If youre in china, Ill go to china
Ill never never let you free
Both day and night and night and day
Youre gonna see a lot of me

You Can't Loose A Broken Heart
James P. Johnson / Flournoy E. Miller
Don't lose your head
Then lose your guy
You can't lose a broken heart
If you ever break up
Then try to make up
It's tough to make a brand new start
Take a walk
Think it over
While strolling neath the moon
Don't say things in December
You'll regret in June
Ware your remark
Before you speak
Or you may be sorry soon,
Don't be eratic
Be diplomatic
To keep your heart's in tune
Cruel harsh words
Often spoken

Your Mothers Son-in-law
Alberta nichols / mann holiner
You dont have to have a hanker
To be a broker or a banker
No siree, just simply be
My mothers son-in-law.
Neednt even think of tryin
To be a mighty social lion
Sipping tea, if youll be
My mothers son-in-law,
Aint got the least desire
To set the world on fire
Just wish youd make it proper
To call my old man papa
You dont have to sing like bledsoe
You can tell the world I said so
Cant you see youve got to be
My mothers son-in-law.
You dont have to sing like jessel
You can tell the world I said so
Cant you see, youve got to be

No Regrets
Harry tobias / ingraham
No regrets
Although our love affair has gone astray
No regrets
I know Ill always care though youre away
So now our happy romance ended suddenly
Still in my heart youll be forever mine
No regrets
Because somebody new looks good to you
No regrets
Sweetheart no matter what you say or do
I know our love will linger
When the other love forgets
So I say goodbye with no regrets
No regrets
Because somebody new looks good to you
No regrets
Sweetheart no matter what you say or do
I know our love will linger
When the other love forgets

Speak Low
Kurt weill / ogden nash
Speak low when you speak, love
Our summer day withers away too soon, too soon
Speak low when you speak, love
Our moment is swift, like ships adrift, were swept apart, too soon
Speak low, darling, speak low
Love is a spark, lost in the dark too soon, too soon
I feel wherever I go that tomorrow is near, tomorrow is here and always too soon
Time is so old and love so brief
Love is pure gold and time a thief
Were late, darling, were late
The curtain descends, evrything ends too soon, too soon
I wait, darling, I wait
Will you speak low to me, speak love to me and soon

All The Way
Jimmy van heusen / sammy cahn
When somebody loves you
Its no good unless he loves you - all the way
Happy to be near you
When you need someone to cheer you - all the way
Taller than the tallest tree is
Thats how its got to feel
Deeper than the deep blue see is
Thats how deep it goes - if its real
When somebody needs you
Its no good unless he needs you - all the way
Through the good or lean years
And for all the in between years - come what may
Who know where the road will lead us
Only a fool would say
But if youll let me love you
Its for sure Im gonna love you - all the way, all the way

You Took Advantage Of Me
Richard rodgers / lorenz hart
Im a sentimental sap, thats all,
Whats the use of trying not to fall?
I have no will, youve made your kill
cause you took advantage of me.
Im just like an apple on a bough
And youre gonna shake me down somehow,
So whats the use, youve cooked my goose
cause you took advantage of me.
Im so hot and bothered that I dont know
My elbow from my ear.
I suffer something awful each time you go
And much worse when youre near.
Here I am with all my bridges burned,
Just a babe in arms where youre concerned,
So lock the doors and call me yours
cause you took advantage of me.

Loveless Love
W.c. handy
Love is like a hydrant turns off and on
Like some friendships when your moneys gone
Love stands in with the loan sharks when your hearts in tongs
It I had some strong wings like an aeroplane
Had some broad wings like an aeroplane
I would fly away forever
Hover to come again
Oh love oh love oh loveless love
Has said our hearts are goldiess gold
From milkless milk and silkless silk
We are growing used to soul-less souls
Such grafting times we never saw
Thats why we have a pure full law
In everything we find a flaw
Even love oh love oh loveless love
Just to fly away from loveless love
