ONCE IN A WHILE
Once in a while will you try to give
one litle thought to me
Though someone else may be near your
heart.
Once in a while will you dream of the
moments I shared witli you,
Moments before we two drifted apart.
In love smouldering ember
One spark may remain if love still can
remember
The spark may burn again;
I know that I’ll be contented with
yesterday’s memory
Knowing you think of me once in
a while.
PLAY A SIMPLE MELODY
Won’t you play a simple melody
Like my mother sang to me
One with good old fashioned harmony.
Play a simple melody.
Musical demon, set your honey
adreamin’
Won’t you play me some rag
Just change that classical nag to some
sweet beatiful drag
If you will play from a copy of a tirnc
that is choppy,
You’ll get all my applause
And that is simply because I want to
listen to rag.
WOULD I LOVE YOU
Oh for just the chance to love you,
Would I love you, Iove you, love you?
To take you in my arms has always
been my goal.
Sure as ther’s a moon above you,
Would I love you, love you, love you?
With all my heart and soul. -
With all my heart and soul.
You ask me would I love you if you
let me?
Eyes that see are eycs diat know.
Would I love you?
What a question when I’m yeaming so.
Oh for just the chance to love you.
Would I love you, love you, love you?
To take you in may arms has always
been my goal.
Sure as there’s a moon above you,
Would I love you, love you, love you?
Witli all my heart and soul.
With all my heart and soul.
Oh for just the chance to soul.
