Sinatra Sings Of Love&Things

Frank Sinatra Sinatra Sings Of Love&Things Lyrics
1.The Nearness Of You

Lyrics:Ned Washington
Music:Hoagy Carmichael
Arranger:Axel Stordahl

Its not the pale moon that excites me
That thrills and delights me, oh no
Its just the nearness of you

It isnt your sweet conversation
That brings this sensation, oh no
Its just the nearness of you

When youre in my arms and I feel you so close to me
All my wildest dreams come true

I need no soft lights to enchant me
If youll only grant me the right
To hold you ever so tight
And to feel in the night the nearness of you


2.Hidden Persuasion


3.The Moon Was Yellow

Written:Edgar Leslie/Fred Ahlert
Arranger:Nelson Riddle

The moon was yellow and the night was young
A smile brought us together, a
And I was wond'ring whether
We'd meet again some day.

The moon was yellow and a song was sung,
That vocal inspiration gave me the inclination
To give my heart away!

Her we are. Is our romance to continue?
Will it be my luck to win you?
May I look that far?

Ah! My love is mellow and my hopes are strung,
Around that cupid fellow,
Behold! The moon is yellow,
And the night is young


4.I Love Paris

Lyrics:Cole Porter
Music:Cole Porter
Arranger:Neal Hefti/Billy May

I love Paris in the spring time
I love Paris in the fall
I love Paris in the summer when it sizzles
I love Paris in the winter when it drizzles

I love Paris every moment
Every moment of the year
I love Paris, why oh why do I love Paris
Because my love is here


5.Monique


6.Chicago

Lyrics:Fred Fisher
Music:Fred Fisher
Arranger:Neal Hefti/Billy May

Chicago, Chicago, that toddlin' town
Chicago, Chicago, I will show you around - I love it
Bet your bottom dollar you'll lose the blues in Chicago
Chicago, the town that Billy Sunday couldn't shut down

On State Street, that great street, I just want to say
They do things they don't do on Broadway
They have the time, the time of their life
I saw a man, he danced with his wife
In Chicago, Chicago, my home town

Chicago, Chicago, that toddlin' town
Chicago, Chicago, I'll show you around - I love it
Bet your bottom dollar you'll lose the blues in Chicago
Chicago, the town that Billy Sunday could not shut down

On State Street, that great street, I just want to say
They do things that they never do on Broadway - hey
They have the time, the time of their life
I saw a man, and he danced with his wife
In Chicago, Chicago, Chicago, that's my home town


7.Love Looks So Well On You


8.Sentimental Baby


9.Mr.Success


10.They Came To Cordura


11.I Gotta Right To Sing The Blues

Written:Harold Arlen/Ted Koehler
Arranger:Skip Martin

I gotta right to sing the blues
I gotta right to feel low-down
I gotta right to hang around
Down
around the river

A certain gal in this old town
Keeps draggin' my poor (old) heart around
All I see,
for me is - misery

I gotta right to sing the blues
I gotta right to moan and sigh
I gotta right to
sit and cry
Down around the river

I know the deep blue sea
Will soon be callin' me
It must be love -
say what you choose
I gotta right to sing the blues


12.Something Wonderful Happens In Summer

Written:John Devries/Joe Bushkin
Arranger:Nelson Riddle

Something wonderful happens in summer
When the sky is a heavenly blue
You fall in love - you fall in love
With someone who loves you too

Something wonderful happens in summer
When the moon makes you feel all aglow
You fall in love - you fall in love
You want the whole world to know

You carve initials on a tree
You kiss and exchange a ring
June and July go by
Your heart sings: 'ting-a-ling-a-ling-a-ling'

Something wonderful happens in summer
And it happens to only a few
But when it does - yes when it does
You'll feel wonderful - it happened to you
