Perry Como The Best Of British Lyrics
1.My Kind Of Girl

She walks, like an angel walks,
She talks like an angel talks!
And her hair has a kind of curl
To my mind, she's my kind of girl!

She's wise, like an angel's wise,
With eyes like an angel's eyes!
And a smile like a kind of pearl
To my mind, she's my kind of girl!

Pretty little face
That face just knocks me off of my feet!
Pretty little feet
She's really sweet enough to eat!

She looks, like an angel looks,
She cooks like an angel cooks!
And my mind's in a kind of whirl
To my mind, she's my kind of girl!

Pretty little face
That face just knocks me off of my feet!
Pretty little feet
She's really sweet enough to eat!

She looks, like an angel looks,
She cooks like an angel cooks!
And my mind's in a kind of whirl
To my mind, she's my kind of girl!

And my heart's kind of full of joy
Because she told me
I'm her kind of boy!

That lady's my kind of girl!


2.Greensleeves

Alas! my love you do me wrong
To cast me off discourteously
When i have loved you so long,
Delighting in your company!

Greensleeves is my delight,
Greensleeves is all my joy
Greensleeves, my heart of gold
And who but my lady greensleeves?

I have been ready at your hand
To grant whatever you would crave!
I have both wagered life and land
Your love and good will for to have!

Greensleeves is my delight,
Greensleeves is all my joy
Greensleeves, my heart of gold
Who but my lady greensleeves?

Well, i will pray to god on high
That thou my constant sea may see
And that yet once before i die
Thou will doth say to love me!

Greensleeves is my delight,
Greensleeves is all my joy
Greensleeves, my heart of gold
And who but my lady greensleeves?

Who but my lady greensleeves?

4.A Nightingale Sang In Berkeley Square

That certain night, the night we met,
There was magic abroad in the air
There were angel's dining at the ritz
And a nightingale sang in berkeley square!

I may be right and i may be wrong,
But i'm perfectly willing to swear
That when you turned and smiled at me
A nightingale sang in berkeley square!

The moon that lingered over london town
Or puzzled moon, he wore a frown
How could he know we two were so in love?
The whole darn world seemed upside down!

The streets of town were paved with stars
It was such a romantic affair!
And when we kissed and said goodnight
A nightingale sang in berkeley square!

< instrumental break >

The streets of town were paved with stars
It was such a romantic affair!
And as we kissed and said goodnight
A nightingale sang in berkeley square!

I know 'cause i was there
That night in berkeley square!


5.Someday I'll Find You

Someday i'll find you, moonlight behind you
True to the dream i am dreaming!
As i draw near you, you'll smile a little smile,
For a little while, we shall stand, hand in hand!

I'll leave you never, love you forever,
All our past sorrow redeeming,
Make it all come true, make me love you too,
Someday i'll find you again!

Someday i'll find you, moonlight behind you
True to the dream i am dreaming!
As i draw near you, you'll smile a little smile,
For a little while, we shall stand, hand in hand!

I'll leave you never, love you forever,
All our past sorrow redeeming,
Make it all come true, make me love you too,
Someday i'll find you again!


6.There's A Kind Of Hush

( all over the world )

There's a kind of a hush, all over the world, tonight,
All over the world you can hear the sound of lovers in love!
You know what i mean?
Just the two of us, with nobody else in sight,
And i'm feelin' good just holdin' you tight!

So, listen very carefully, closer now and you will see
What i mean ( see what i mean? ) it isn't a dream ( i mean, it
isn't a dream! )
The only sound that you will hear is when i whisper in your ear
'i love you!' ( i love you! ) forever and ever!

There's a kind of a hush, all over the world, tonight,
All over the world you can hear the sound of lovers in love!

There's a kind of a hush ( kind of a hush! )
All over the world! ( all over the world, tonight! )
All over the world ( you can hear the sound of lovers in love! )

You know what i mean?
Just the two of us ( two of us! ) and nobody else in sight,
There's nobody else and i'm feelin' good,
Just holdin' you tight ( ever so tightly! )

So, listen very carefully, closer now and you will see
What i mean ( see what i mean? ) it isn't a dream ( i mean, it
isn't a dream! )
The only sound that you will hear is when i whisper in your ear
'i love you!' forever and ever!

There's a kind of a hush ( kind of a hush! )
All over the world (a hush, all over the world, tonight! )
All over the world you can hear the sound
Of lovers in love! ( i love you! )
You know what i mean? ( i love you! )
It isn't a dream! ( i love you! )
You know what i mean? ( la, la la la! )
I love you!


7.Where Is Love ?

Where is love?
Does it fall from skies above?
Is it underneath the willow tree that i've been dreaming of?

Where is she,
Who i close my eyes to see??
Will i ever know the sweet 'hello' that's meant for only me?

Who can say where she may hide?
Must i travel far an' wide,
Till i am beside the someone who, i can mean something to?
Where, where is love?

< instrumental break >

Where is she,
Who i close my eyes to see??
Will i ever know the sweet 'hello' that's meant for only me?

Every night i kneel an' pray, let tomorrow be the day,
When i see the face of someone who, i can mean something to!
Where, where is love?


8.Other Man's Grass Is Always Greener

Life is never what it seems,
We're always searching in our dreams,
To find those little castles in the air!
When worry starts to cloud the mind,
It's hard to leave it all behind,
An' just pretend you haven't got a care!

There's someone else in your imagination,
You wished that you were standin' in their shoes
You'd change your life without much hesitation
But would you if you really had to choose?

So, don't look around,
Get your feet on the ground,
It's much better by far
To be just who you are!

The other man's grass is always greener,
The sun shines brighter on the other side!
The other man's grass is always greener,
Some are lucky, some are not,
Just be thankful for what you've got!

< instrumental break >

Many times it seems to me,
There's someone else i'd rather be,
Living in a world of make-believe!
To stay in bed 'till nearly three
With nothing there to worry me
Would seem to be the life i might achieve!

But, deep inside i know i'm really lucky,
Happiness i've never known before,
Just as long as you are there beside me
I know that i could ask for nothin' more!

And living can start,
With the love in your heart!
So, with you all the time,
All the chances i've longed for are mine!

The other man's grass is always greener,
The sun shines brighter on the other side!
The other man's grass is always greener,
Some are lucky, some are not,
I'm so thankful for what i've got!

< repeat chorus two more times to fade >


9.The Very Thought Of You

The very thought of you, and i forget to do
The little ordinary things that everyone ought to do
I'm living in a kind of daydream, i'm happy as a king
And foolish though it may seem, to me that's everything!

The mere idea of you, the longing here for you
You'll never know how slow the moments go 'till i'm near to you
I see your face in every flower, your eyes in stars above
It's just the thought of you, the very thought of you, my love!

< instrumental break >

I see your face in every flower, your eyes in stars above
It's just the thought of you, the very thought of you, my love!

It's just the thought of you,
The very thought of you,
My love!


10.We'll Meet Again

We'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when,
But i know we'll meet again some sunny day!
Keep smiling through, just like you always do,
'till the blue skies drive the dark clouds far away!

So, will you please say hello to the folks that i know?
Tell them i won't be long!
They'll be happy to know that as you saw me go,
I was singin' this song:

We'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when,
But i know we'll meet again some sunny day!

So, will you please say hello to the folks that i know?
Tell them i won't be long!
They'll be happy to know that as you saw me go . . .
I was singin' this song:

We'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when,
But i know we'll meet again some sunny day!

We'll meet again, we'll meet again . . .
