The Very Thought Of You
Ray noble
The very thought of you
I forget to do
Those little ordinary things
That everyone ought to do
Im livin in a kind of a daydream
Im happy as a queen
And foolish though it may seem
To me thats everything
The mere idea of you
The longing here for you
Youll never know
How slow the moments go
Till Im near to you
I see your face in every flower
Your eyes in stars above
Its just the thought of you,
The very thought of you, my love

Ill Wind
Harold arlen / ted koehler
Blow, ill wind, blow away
Let me rest today
Youre blowin me no good
No good
Go, ill wind, go away
Skies are oh so gray
Around my neighborhood
And thats no good
*
Youre only misleading
The sunshine Im needing
Aint that a shame
Its so hard to keep up
With troubles that creep up
From out of nowhere
When loves to blame
So, ill wind, blow away
Let me rest today
Youre blowin me no good

Travlin Light
Johnny mercer / jimmy mundy
Im travlin light
Because my man has gone
So from now on
Im travlin light
He said goodbye
And took my heart away
So from today
Im travlin light
No one to see
Im free as the breese
No one but me
And my menories
Some lucky night
He may come back again
So untill then
Im travlin light
No one to see
Im free as the breese
No one but me

Big Stuff
Leonard bernstein
So you cry
Whats it about, baby?
You ask why
Blues had to go and pick you
So you go
Down to the shore, kids stuff
Dont you know
Theres honey in the store for you, big stuff
Lets take a ride on my gravy train
The door open wide
So you stare
Call it despair, baby
Dont you care
Im on the square about you
Lets have a try
It maybe that youre my guy
Lets take a ride on my gravy train
The door open wide
Come in from out of the rain

Dont Worry bout Me
Rube bloom / ted koehler
Dont worry bout me
Ill get along
Just you forget about me
Be happy my love
Just say that our little show is over
And so the story ends
Why not call it a day, the sensible way
And well remain friends
Look out for yourself
Should be the rule
Just give your heart and your love, to whom ever you love
Dont you be a fool
Baby why stop and cling, to some fading thing
That used to be
So if you cant forget
Dont you worry bout me

One, Two, Button Your Shoe
Tobias / paul rusincky / johnny burke
One two button your shoe
Put on your coat and hat
Ill play a game like that
While Im waiting for you
Three tour open the door
Hurry for heavens sake
I count each step you take
While Im waiting for you
Five six my eyes are fixed
On that picture of your charm
Seven eight youre at the gate
And you walk into my arms
None ten kiss me again
Tell me you get a thrill
Just as I hope you will
While Im waiting for you

Stormy Blues
Billie holiday
Ive been down so long
That down dont worry me
Ive been down so long
That down dont worry me
I just sit and wonder
Where can my good man be
When it rains in here
Its storming on the sea
When it rains in here
Its storming on the sea
Every time I come here
Everything happens to me
I lose my man
I lose my head
I lose my money
Feel like Im almost dead
I need you honey
Need you bad as can be
Ive been down so long

I Wish I Had You
B. green / a. stillman / claude thornhill
Joys that come to others
Seldom come to me
But if I only were aladin
How different things would be
Every time I wish
I wish I had you
Every time I dream
The dream is for two
Youre the part within my heart
That beats all day
Seems to say, I love you
Everywhere I go
Youre all that I see
Wonder if you know
What you mean to me
Wishes would be grand
If only they came true
For every time I wish
I wish I had you

(This Is) My Last Affair
H. Johnson
Can't you see
What love and romance have done to me
I'm not the same as I used to be
This is my last affair
Tragedy just seems to be the end of me
My happiness is misery
This is my last affair
Right from the start
You took my love
Tore my heart apart
Now there's nothing new to look forward to
My dreams won't come true
So I'll make a vow, make a vow
No more to love's line will I bow
I cross my heart and feel it now
This is my last affair
