TOO YOUNG
They try to tell us we’re too young
Too young to really be in love.
They say that love’s a word,
A word we’ve only heard
But cant’t begin to know the meaning oí.
And yet, we’re not too young to know
This love will last though years may go.
And then, someday they may recall
We were not to young at all.
BE MY LOVE
Be my love, for no one else can end this yearing
This need that you and you alone create.
Just fill my arms the way you’ve filled my dreams
The dreams that you inspire with ev’ry
sweet desire.
Be my love, and with your kisses set me burning
One kiss is all I need to seal my fate,
And hand in hand we’U find love’s promised land.
There’ll be no one but you, for me eternally,
If you wUl be my love.
THE LOVLIEST NIGHT
OF THE YEAR
When you are in love
It’s the lovliest night of the year
Stars twinkle above
And you almost can touch them from here.
Words fall into rhyme
Any time you are holding me near
When you are in love
It’s the loveliest night of the year.
Waltzing along in the blue
Like a breeze drifting over the sand.
Thrilled by the wonder of you
And the wonderful touch of your hand
And my heart starts to beat
Like a chUd when a birthday is near.
So, kiss me my sweet,
It’s the loveliest night of the year.
IVORY RAG
When the old piano plays
I could dance for days and days
Red hot! That’s what!
Play the Ivory Rag
Run that scale right up and down
Make a break and go to town
Two step! Some pep!
Play that Ivory rag.
Let’s dance my little honey bunny Baby,
And we will romance a little honey bunny boo
Come on and do a step then whirl about
While he pours that music out
Red hot! That’s what!
Play that Ivory Rag.
JEZEBEL
If ever the devil was born
Without a pair of horns.
It was you
Jezebel it was you.
If ever an angel fell
Jezebel it was you.
Jezebel it was you.
If ever a pair of eyes promised a paradise
Deceiving me, grieving me, leaving me blue
Jezebel it was you.
If ever the devil’s plan
was made to torment a man, it was you,
Jezebel it was you.
I APOLOGISE
If I told a lie, if I made you cry,
When I said goodby I’m sorry
From the bottom of my heart, dear,
I Apologise.
If I caused you pain, I know I’m to blame,
Must have been in sane, believe me,
From the bottom of my heart, dear,
I Apologise.
I realize I’ve been unfair to you,
Please let me make amends.
Don’t say that you forgot the love we knew.
After all, we were more than friends,
If Iv’e made you blue,
Iv’e had heartaches too,
Now I beg of you forgive me,
From the bottom of my heart, dear,
I Apologise.
GOOD LUCK. GOOD HEALTH.
GOD BLESS YOU
Good luck, good health, God bless you,
That’s all my heart can say
Good luck, good health, God bless you,
And guide you on your way.
No matter where you wander
As long as we’re apart.
Good luck, good health, God bless you
and keep you
And keep me still in your heart.
