The Voice Of Frank Sinatra

Frank Sinatra The Voice Of Frank Sinatra Lyrics
1.You Go To My Head

Lyrics:Haven Gillespie
Music:Fred Coots
Arranger:Nelson Riddle

You go to my head and you linger like a haunting refrain
And I find you spinning 'round in my brain
Like the bubbles in a glass of champagne
You go to my head like a sip of sparkling Burgundy brew
And I find the very mention of you
Like the kicker in a julep or two

The thrill of the thought that you might give a thought to my
plea
Cast a spell over me
Still I say to myself get a hold of yourself
Can't you see that it never can be

You go to my head with a smile that makes my temperature rise
Like a summer with a thousand Julys
You intoxicate my soul with your eyes
Though I'm certain that this heart of mine
Hasn't a ghost of a chance in this crazy romance
You go to my head
You go to my head


2.Someone To Watch Over Me

Lyrics:Ira Gershwin
Music:George Gershwin
Arranger:Nelson Riddle

There's a saying old says that love is blind
Still we're often told, 'Seek and ye shall find'
So I'm going to seek a certain lad I've had in mind
Looking everywhere, haven't found him yet

He's the big affair I cannot forget
Only man I ever think of with regret
I'd like to add his initial to my monogram
Tell me, where is the shepherd for this lost lamb?

There's a somebody I'm longing to see
I hope that he turns out to be
Someone who'll watch over me
I'm a little lamb who's lost in the wood
I know I could always be good
Someone who'll watch over me

Although he may not be the man some
girls think of as handsome
To my heart he carries the key
Won't you tell him please to put on some speed
Follow my lead, oh, how I need
Someone to watch over me


3.These Foolish Things(Remind Me Of You)

Lyrics:Holt Marvell
Music:Jack Strachey/Harry Link
Arranger:Axel Stordahl

A cigarette that bears a lipstick's traces
An airline ticket to romantic places
And still my heart has wings
These foolish things remind me of you

A tinkling piano in the next apartment
Those stumbling words that told you what my heart meant
A fairground's painted swings
These foolish things remind me of you

You came, you saw, you conquered me
When you did that to me
I knew somehow this had to be

The winds of March that make my heart a dancer
A telephone that rings but who's to answer?
Oh, how the ghost of you clings
These foolish things remind me of you

The smile of Turner and the scent of roses
The waiters whistling as the last bar closes
The song that Crosby sings
These foolish things remind me of you


4.Why Shouldn't I?

Lyrics:Cole Porter
Music:Cole Porter
Arranger:Axel Stordahl

Why shouldn't I take a chance when romance passes by?
Why shouldn't I know of love?
Why wait around when each age has a sage who has sung
That upon this earth love is all that is really worth thinking
of?

It must be fun, lots of fun
To be sure when day is done
That the hour is coming when you'll be kissed
And then you'll be kissed again

All debutantes say it's good
And every star out in far Hollywood
Seems to give it a try
So why shouldn't I?


All debutantes say it's good
And every star out in far Hollywood
Seems to give it a try
So why shouldn't I?


5.I Don't Know Why(I Just Do)

Lyrics:Roy Turk
Music:Fred Ahlert
Arranger:Axel Stordahl

I don't know why I love you like I do
I don't why, but I do
I don't know why you thrill me like you do
I don't know why, but you do

You never seem to want my romancing
The only time you hold me is when we're dancing

I don't know why I love you like I do
I don't know why, but I do


You never seem to want my romancing
The only time you hold me is when we're dancing

I don't know why I love you like I do
I don't know why, but I do


6.Try A Little Tenderness

Written:Harry Woods/Reg Conolly/Jimmy Campbell
Arranger:Nelson Riddle

INTRO:
In the hustle of the day, we're all inclined to miss
Little things that mean so much
A word, a smile, and a kiss
When a woman loves a man, he's a hero in her eyes
And a hero he can always be if he'll just realize

She may be weary, women do get weary
Wearing the same shabby dress
And when she's weary, try a little tenderness

She may be waiting, just anticipating
Things she may never possess
While she's without them, try a little tenderness

It's not just sentimental, she has her grief and her care
But a word that's soft and gentle makes it easier to bear

You won't regret it, women don't forget it
Love is their whole happiness
And it's all so easy, try a little tenderness


7.I Don't Stand A Ghost Of A Chance

Lyrics:Ned Washington/Bing Crosby
Music:Victor Young
Arranger:Gordon Jenkins

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 had found you but other loves surround you
And I don't stand a ghost of a chance with you

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


What's the good of scheming? I know I must be dreaming
'cause I don't stand a ghost of a chance with you


8.Paradise

Written:Nacio Herb Brown/Gordon Clifford
Arranger:Axel Stordahl

And then she holds my hand, mm mm mm mm.
And then I understand, mm mm mm mm.
Her eyes afire with one desire,
then a heavenly kiss;
could I resist?

And then she dims the light, mm mm mm mm.
And then she holds me tight, mm mm mm mm.
Her kiss, each fond caress,
they lead the way to happiness.
She takes me to Paradise.
