The Third Album

Barbra Streisand The Third Album Lyrics
1.My Melancholy Baby

Lyrics:George A.Norton
Music:Ernie Burnett

Why do you grieve?
Try and believe
Life is always sunshine
When the heart beats true
Banish your fears
Smile through your tears
When you're sad
It makes me feel the same as you...

Come to me my melancholy baby
Cuddle up and don't be blue
All your fears are foolish fancy, maybe
You know, dear, that I'm in love with you;

Every cloud must have a silver lining
Wait until the sun shines through
Come on and smile, my honey dear,
While I kiss away each tear
Or else I shall be melancholy too...


2.Just In Time

Lyrics:Betty Comden/Adolph Green
Music:Jule Styne

Just in time, I found you just in time
Before you came, my time was runnin' low
I was lost, the losin' dice were tossed
My bridges all were crossed, nowhere to go
Now you're here and now I know just where I'm goin'
No more doubt or fear, I found my way
For love came just in time
You found me just in time
And changed my lonely life that lovely day

Mm, I was lost, the losin' dice were tossed
My bridges all were crossed, nowhere to go
Now you're here and now I know just where I'm goin'
No more doubt or fear, I found my way
For love came just in time
You found me just in time
And changed my lonely life that lovely day


3.Taking A Chance On Love

Written:John Latouche/Vernon Duke/Ted Fetter

Here I go again, I hear those trumpets blow again.
All aglow again , takin' a chance on love.
Here I slide again, about to take that ride again.
Starry-eyed again, takin' a chance on love.

I thought that cards were a frame-up, I never would try.
Now I'm taking that game up and the ace of hearts is high.
Things are mending now, I see a rainbow blending now.
We'll have a happy ending now, takin' a chance on love.

Here I slip again, about to take that trip again.
I got that grip again, takin' a chance on love.
Now I prove again that I can make life move again.
Um - I'm in the groove again, takin' a chance on love.

I walk around with a horse shoe, in clover I lie.
And brother rabbit of course you better kiss your ... foot
good-bye.
On that ball again I'm ridin' for a fall again.
I'm gonna give my all again takin' a chance on love.


4.Bewitched(Bothered And Bewildered)

I'm wild again, beguiled again
A simpering, whimpering child again
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered am I...
Could not sleep, would not sleep
Till love came and told me I should not sleep
Bothered and bewildered am I...
Lost my heart, so what of it?
He was cold, I agree,
He can laugh and I love it
Although the laugh's on me;
I'll sing to him, each spring to him
And long for the day when I'll cling to him,
Bewitched, bothered so bewildered am I...


5.Never Will I Marry

Never, never will I marry
Never, never will I wed
Born to wander solitary
Wide my world narrow my bed
Never, never will I marry
Born to wander till I'm dead
No burdens to bear, no conscious, no care
No memories to mourn, no turning on
For I was born to wander solitary
Wide my world narrow my bed
Never, never will I marry
Born to wander till I'm dead.


6.As Time Goes By

You must remember this,
A kiss is just a kiss,
A sigh is just a sigh,
The fundamental things apply,
As time goes by.
And when two lovers woo,
They still say 'I love you,'
On that you can rely,
No matter what the future brings,
As time goes by.

Moonlight and love songs,
Never out of date,
Hearts full of passion,
Jealousy and hate,
Woman needs man, and man must have his mate,
There's no one can deny.

It's still the same old story,
A fight for love and glory,
A case of do or die,
The world will always welcome lovers,
As time goes by.


7.Draw Me A Circle

Draw me a circle that's perfectly round
One curving line, simple and fine
Now add two ears, and a lopsided nose,
And if you care, add some hair
Now draw two eyes and make them bright
Because they've just seen a beautiful sight
Sketch in a mouth with a radiant grin
One coming deep from within
You've drawn me a circle and now that you're through,
It's a picture of me after being with you...


8.It Had To Be You

Lyrics:Gus Kahn
Music:Isham Jones

Why do I do just as you say?
Why must I just give you your way?
Why do I sigh?
Why do I try to forget?

It must have been that something lovers call 'Fate'
Kept on saying I had to wait
I saw them all
Just couldn't fall till we met

It had to be you, it had to be you
I wandered around and finally found the somebody who
Could make me be true, could make me be blue
And even be glad just to be sad thinkin' of you

Some others I've seen might never be mean
Might never be cross or try to be boss, but they wouldn't do
For nobody else gave me a thrill
With all your faults, I love you still
It had to be you, wonderful you, it had to be you


9.Make Believe

We could make believe I love you
Only make believe that you love me
Others find peace of mind in pretending
Couldn't you? Couldn't I? Couldn't we?
Make believe our lips are blending
In a phantom kiss, or two, or three
Might as well make believe I love you
For to tell the truth
I only tell the truth
This time I'll tell the truth
I do!


10.I Had Myself A True Love

I had myself a true love
A true love who was something to see
I had myself a true love
At least that's what I kept on telling me
The first thing in the morning
I still try to think of a way to be with him
Some part of the evening
And that's the way I live through the day
I had myself a true love, but now he's gone
And left me for good
The Lord knows I don't hear those back yard
Whispers going round the neighborhood
There maybe a lot of things I miss
A lot of things I don't know
But I do know this, now I ain't got no love
And once upon a time I had a true love
In the evening, in the doorway
While I stand there and wait for his coming
With the house swept and the clothes hung
And a pot on the stove where I had meal
Where is he while I waste the rising newel?
Where is he? Why'd he gone so soon?
Now there ain't no way that it used to be, what now?
And everybody keeps telling me
There are may be a lot of things I miss
A lot of things I don't know
But I do know this now...
I ain't got no love
And once upon a time I had a true love.
