Frank Sinatra Concepts 12 Lyrics
1.When No One Cares

Written:Sammy Cahn/Jimmy Van Heusen
Arranger:Gordon Jenkins

When no one cares
And the phone never rings
The nights are endless things

You're like a child that cries
And no one heeds the crying
You're like a falling star that dies
And seems to go on dying

When no one cares
You just count souvenirs
And they glisten with your tears

You can't believe a love like hers
Could come from someone new
When no one cares - but you


2.A Cottage For Sale

Written:Larry Conley/Willard Robison

A little dream castle, with every dream gone
Is lonely and silent, the shades are all drawn
And my heart is heavy, as I gaze upon a cottage for sale.

The lawn we were proud of is waving in hay
A beautiful garden has withered away
Where you planted roses, the weeds seem to say,
A cottage for sale

From every single window, I see your face
But when I reach the window, there's empty space
The key's in the mailbox, the same as before
But no one is waiting for me anymore
The end of our story is there on the door,
A cottage for sale


3.Stormy Weather

Lyrics:Ted Koehler
Music:Harold Arlen
Arranger:Sam Nestico

Don't know why there's no sun up in the sky
Stormy weather
Since my gal and I ain't together
Keeps rainin' all the time

Life is bare, gloom and misery everywhere
Stormy weather
Just can't get my poor old self together
I'm weary all the time, the time
So weary all the time

When she went away, the blues walked in and they met me
If she stays away, that old rockin' chair's gonna get me
All I do is pray the Lord above will let me
Walk in the sun once more

Can't go on, everything I had is gone
Stormy weather
Since my gal and I ain't together
Keeps rainin' all the time
Keeps rainin' all the time


(When she went away, the blues walked in and met me)
(If he stays away, old rockin' chair will get me)
(All I do is pray the Lord above will let me)
(Walk in the sun once more)

Can't go on, everything I had is gone
Stormy weather
Since my gal and I ain't together
Keeps rainin' all the time, the time
Keeps rainin' all the time


4.Where Do You Go


5.I Don't Stand A Ghost of a Chance With You

Written:Bing Crosby/Ned Washington/Victor Young

I need your love so badly
I love you oh so madly
But I don't stand a ghost of a chance with you

I thought at last I'd found you
But other loves surround you
And I don't stand a ghost of a chance with you

If you'd surrender for a tender kiss or two
You might discover that I'm the lover meant for you
And I'll be true

But what's the good of scheming
I know I must be dreaming
'Cause I don't stand a ghost of a chance with you

So what's the good of scheming
I know I must be dreaming
'Cause I don't stand a ghost of a chance with you


6.Here's That Rainy Day

Written:Jimmy Van Heusen/Johnny Burke
Arranger:Gordon Jenkins

Maybe
I should have saved
Those leftover dreams
Funny
But here's that rainy day

Here's that rainy day
They told me about
And I laughed at the thought
That it might turn out this way

Where is that worn out wish
That I threw aside
After it brought my love so near

Funny how love becomes
A cold rainy day
Funny
That rainy day is here


It's funny
How love becomes
A cold rainy day

Funny
That rainy day is here


7.I Can't Get Started

Lyrics:Ira Gershwin
Music:Vernon Duke

I've flown around the world in a plane
I've settled revalations in Spain
The North Pole I have charted
still I can't get started with you
on the golf course, I'm under par
and Metro Golden's asked me to star
I've got a house, a show place
still I can't get no place with you
cause you're so supreme
lyrics I write of you
I dream, dream night and day of you
and I steam just for the sight of you
baby what good does it do
I've been counsulted by Franklin D
and Greta Garbo gave me her key
still I'm broken hearted
cause I can't get started with you
in 1929 I sold short
in England I'm presented a cord
but you've got me down hearted
cause I can't get started with you


8.Why Try To Change Me Now


9.Just Friends


10.I'll Never Smile Again

Lyrics:Ruth Lowe
Music:Ruth Lowe
Arranger:Fred Stulce

I'll never smile again
Until I smile at you
I'll never laugh again
What good would it do?
For tears would fill my eyes
My heart would realize
That our romance is through

I'll never love again
I'm so in love with you
I'll never thrill again
To somebody new
Within my heart
I know I will never start
To smile again
Until I smile at you


11.None But The Lonely Heart

Written:Peter I.Tchaikovsky
Arranger:Axel Stordahl

None but the lonely heart
Can know my sadness
Alone and parted
Far from joy and gladness
Heaven's boundless arch I see
Spread about above me
O what a distance dear to one
Who loves me

None but the lonely heart
Can know my sadness
Alone and parted
Far from joy and gladness
Alone and parted far
From joy and gladness
My senses fail
A burning fire
Devours me

None but the lonely heart
Can know my sadness
