1.He's Mine

Lyricist:Jean Miles, Paul Robi, Zola Taylor

He's mine
(Yes she's really mine)
He's mine
(Yes she's really mine)

He's mine
He's mine
He's mine
Really mine

I feel my baby loves me so
He really lets me know
He's mine
Really mine

He's mine
He's mine
He's mine
Really mine

I feel my baby loves me so
He really lets me know
He's mine
Really mine

When he pets me
He's sweet and gentle
It just gets me
Honest and truly, I'm sentimental

He's mine
He's mine
He's mine
Really mine

I feel my baby loves me so
He really lets me know
He's mine
Really mine

He's mine
(Yes she's really mine)
He's mine
(Hmm, she sure is fine)
He's mine
(Gotta be out of my mind)
He's mine
(Oh man, this chick is something else)
He's mine


2.Enchanted

Lyricist:Buck Ram

Living is a dream
When you make it seem enchanted
Lovers take for granted
All the world's aglow, they ought to know

When you touch a star
Then you really are enchanted
Find a seed and plant it
Love will make it grow

It's really grand when you stand
Hand in hand with your lover
And thrill to the wonders of night

And days, too will amaze you
And soon you'll discover
Your dreams run to dreams
In continuous flight

Love is ecstasy
It's divine to be enchanted
When your dreams are slanted
Through a lover's eyes

It's really grand when you stand
Hand in hand with your lover
And thrill to the wonders of night

And days too will amaze you
And soon you'll discover
Your dreams run to dreams
In continuous flight

Love is ecstasy
It's divine to be enchanted
When your dreams are slanted
Through a lover's eyes


3.Heaven on Earth

Lyricist:Buck Ram

Heaven on earth, that's what you've made for me since the day we
met
Heaven on earth, it's all been so thrilling, I never can forget,
uh oh
Heaven on earth, alone with an angel, is living in dreams come
true
Heaven on earth, I know that it happens only when I'm with you

Paradise seemed so far
Like a star it twinkled high above me
Now I'm wise
Paradise isn't far at all when you're around to love me, uh oh,
love me

Oh, Heaven on earth, no need in waiting, waiting until I die
Heaven on earth, that's what you've made, a heaven for you and I
A Heaven for you and I
(For you and I)


4.I'll Never Smile Again

Lyricist:Ruth Lowe

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

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


5.It Isn't Right

Lyricist:Robert Mellin

It isn't right for you to hurt me
It isn't right to make me blue
It isn't right to take my kisses
And give them to somebody new

It isn't right for you to promise
A million dreams that can't come true
It isn't right to start a flame
Deep within my heart
Then let it go out like a light, it isn't right

It isn't right for you to promise
A million dreams that can't come true
It isn't right to start a flame
Deep within my heart
Then let it go out like a light, it isn't right


6.On My Word of Honor

Lyricist:Katherine Harrison, Jean Miles

On my word of honor
All my love belongs to you
Please put your faith in me
You'll see how true I'll be

On my word of honor
You can trust me with your heart
And I pledge mine to you
It's yours my whole life through

Let these lips never kiss you
Again, if they're telling you a lie
It's forever, ever, ever, ever and ever
Cross my heart and hope to die

On my word of honor
You mean everything to me
I swear by stars above
I'll keep my word, my love

Let these lips never kiss you
Again, if they're telling you a lie
It's forever, ever, ever, ever and ever
Cross my heart and hope to die

On my word of honor
You mean everything to me
I swear by stars above
I'll keep my word, my love
(My love)


7.One in a Million

Lyricist:Katherine Harrison, Jeanette Miles, Tony Williams

There is one in a million like you
A dream in a million come true
I confess that I really don't know why
But I know that I glow like I do

Only once in a lifetime is par
To find someone rare as you are
But now you're around, I have really found
That there's one in a million like you

Fate was surely kind to help my heart find
Someone like you to be my love
I give thinks each day that you came my way
Way out of heaven to try love

Oh yes, once in a lifetime you know
A love heaven started below
Though it may be rare, you and I do share
This love that has happened to few
For there's one in a million like you

Fate was surely kind to help my heart find
Someone like you to be my love
I give thanks each day that you came my way
Way out of heaven to try love

Oh yes, once in a lifetime you know
A love heaven started below
Though it may be rare, you and I do share
This love that has happened to few
For there's one in a million like you


8.Only You

Only You - The Platters

Only you can make oh this world seem right
Only you can make the darkness bright
Only you and you alone
Can thrill me like you do
And fill my heart with love for only you

Only you can make oh this change in me
For it's true you are my destiny
When you hold my hand I understand
The magic that you do
You're my dream come true
My one and only you

Only you can make this change in me
For it's true you are my destiny
When you hold my hand I understand
The magic that you do
You're my dream come true
My one and only you


9.Remember When

Lyricist:Mickey Addy, Buck Ram

Remember when I first met you
My lips were so afraid to say, 'I love you'

Remember when to my surprise
The heaven in my heart leaped into your eyes

Remember how much I cried
Tears of joy to think you were mine
Darling, down deep inside
I still feel that feeling divine

I loved you then and I still do
I can't remember when I didn't love you

Remember how much I cried
Tears of joy to think you were mine
Darling, down deep inside
I still feel that feeling divine

I loved you then and I still do
I can't remember when I didn't love you


10.To Each His Own

Lyricist:Ray Evans, Jay Livingston

A rose must remain with the sun and the rain
Or it's lovely promise won't come true
To each his own, to each his own
And my own is you

What good is a song if the words just don't belong?
And a dream must be a dream for two
No good alone, to each his own
For me there's you

If a flame is to grow there must be a glow
To open each door there's a key
I need you, I know, I can't let you go
Your touch means too much to me

Two lips must insist on two more to be kissed
Or they'll never know what love can do
To each his own, I've found my own
One and only you

If a flame is to grow there must be a glow
To open each door there's a key
I need you, I know, I can't let you go
Your touch means too much to me

Two lips must insist on two more to be kissed
Or they'll never know what love can do
To each his own, I've found my own
One and only you


11.(You've Got) The Magic Touch

Lyricist:Buck Ram

You've got the magic touch
It makes me glow so much
It casts a spell, it rings a bell
The magic touch

Oh, when I feel your charm
It's like a fourth alarm
You make me thrill so much
You've got the magic touch

Here I go reeling, uh-oh
I'm feeling the glow, uh-oh
But where can I go from you?

I didn't know too much
And then I felt your touch
And now I've learned, I can return
The magic touch

Here I go reeling, uh-oh
I'm feeling the glow, uh-oh
But where can I go from you?

I didn't know too much
And then I felt your touch
And now I've learned, I can return
The magic touch


12.You'll Never Never Know

Lyricist:Miles, Robi, Williams

(You'll never know)
You'll never, never know I care
You'll never know the torch I bear
You'll never know it, for I won't show it
Oh no you'll never, never know

(You'll never know)
You'll never, never see me cry
Not even when you're glancing by
For I won't weaken, when we're speaking
Oh no you'll never, never know

You'll know the use to me
That I was before
You'll see the used to be
That one you did adore

(You'll never know)
No, no I know I won't reveal
The way I really, truly feel
But if you guess it, I'll confess it
Oh darling now's the time to glow
Or else you'll never, never know

You'll know the use to me
That I was before
You'll see the used to be
That one you did adore

(You'll never know)
No, no, I, no I won't reveal
The way I really, truly feel
But if you guess it, I'll confess it
Oh darling now's the time to glow

Or else you never, no, no you'll never
Oh no you'll never ever know
(You'll never know)


13.Where

Lyricist:Lynn Paul

Where is the heaven that we hoped would be?
Where is the gladness my heart came to see?
Where is the rapture we can't recapture?
Where is the future your love promised to me?

Where is the promise of the joy we knew?
Where are you, princess, are you crying too?
Why has it ended, was love pretended?
Where is the splendid world I shared with you?

Where are you? Where are you?
Why, oh, why they all now have died?
Where are you, darling, are you crying too?


14.I Believe

Lyricist:Ervin Drake, Irvin Graham, Jimmy Shirl, Al Stillman

I believe for every drop of rain that falls
A flower grows
I believe that somewhere in the darkest night
A candle glows

I believe for everyone who goes astray
Someone will come to show the way
I believe, I believe

I believe above the storm a smallest prayer
Will still be heard
I believe that someone in the great somewhere
Hears every word

Every time I hear a newborn baby cry
Or touch a leaf or see the sky
Then I know why I believe

Every time I hear a newborn baby cry
Or touch a leaf or see the sky
Then I know why


15.Over The Rainbow

Lyricist:Harold Arlen, E.y. Harburg

Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high
There's a land that I heard of once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow, the skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true

Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away, above the chimney tops
That's where, that's where you'll find me

Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high
There's a land that I heard of once in a lullaby

Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away, above the chimney tops
That's where, that's where you'll find me

Oh, somewhere over the rainbow, birds do fly
Fly over the rainbow, then why
Oh, why can't I? Oh, why can't I?


16.Put Your Hand In The Hand

Lyricist:Gene Maclellan

Put your hand in the hand of our sweet Lord
Put your hand in the hand of the man who stilled the water
Put your hand in the hand of the man who calmed the sea
Take a look at yourself and you can now look at others
differently
By puttin' your hand in the hand of the man from Galilee

Every time I looked into the Holy Book, I wanna tremble
When I read about the carpenter's son who cleared the temple
For the buyers and the sellers
Were no different fellas than what I profess to be
And it causes me pain to know I'm not the person I should be

Put your hand in the hand of the man who stilled the water
Put your hand in the hand of the man who calmed the sea
Take a look at yourself and you can now look at others
differently
By puttin' your hand in the hand of the man from Galilee

My momma taught me how to pray before I reached the age of seven
(When I lay me down to sleep, pray the Lord my soul to keep)
And when I'm down on my knees that's when I be closest to Heaven
(If I should die before I wake, pray the Lord my soul to take)
Daddy lived his life with three kids and a wife, you do what you
must do
But he taught me enough of what it takes in life to get through

Put your hand in the hand of the man who stilled the water
Put your hand in the hand of the man who calmed the sea
Take a look at yourself and you can look at others differently
By puttin' your hand in the hand of the man from Galilee


17.I'll Be Home For Christmas

Lyricist:Kim Gannon, Walter Kent, Buck Ram

I'll be home for Christmas
You can count on me
Please have snow and mistletoe
And presents on the tree

Christmas Eve will find me
Where the love, the lovelight gleams
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams

I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams


18.No Matter What You Are

Lyricist:Buck Ram

No matter what you are, I'm so in love with you
No matter how you've made me cry, I really care
No matter what you've done, no matter what you do
You are my only one I love, no matter who

Oh, I care for you just like I did before
Just like I loved you then, I, I love you still
Oh, baby, I'll care for you until my days are through
For loving you is still my only thrill

No, no, no matter what you are
I hope that you will change
For it will make no matter then
That you were once so strange


19.Christmas Time

Lyricist:Buck (adapt) Ram

Gather 'round old friends and neighbors
And share a cup of a cheer
It's that time to cease our labors
For Christmas time is here

Yes, Christmas time is here
And then comes the new year

Drink a toast
To good old Merry Christmas
The best holiday of the year


20.In The Still Of The Night

Lyricist:Cole Porter

In the still of the night
As I gaze from my window
At the moon in its flight
My thoughts all stray to you

In the still of the night
While the world is in slumber
Oh, the times without number
Darling, when I say to you

Do you love me as I love you?
Are you my life to be, my dream come true?
Or will this dream of mine fade out of sight

Like the moon growing dim
On the rim of a hill
In the chill, still of the night?


21.Away In a Manger

Lyricist:Traditional

Away in a manger, no crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus lay down His sweet head
The stars in the sky looked down where He lay
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay

The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes
But little Lord Jesus no crying He makes
I love Thee Lord Jesus look down from the sky
And stay by my cradle till morning is nigh

Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask Thee to stay
Close by me forever and love me I pray
Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care
And take us to heaven to live with Thee there


22.When You Return

Lyricist:Buck Ram

When you return
I'll be around to welcome you
And then you'll learn
How much I missed you, dear

Oh yes, you'll learn
That though you were away from me
My heart had kept you locked inside
And you were near

When you return
I'll never ever let you go
Our flame will burn
As though you'd never gone

So come back soon
I'll wait to hold you close once more
I'll wait for you to say I do
When you return


23.My Dream

Lyricist:Buck Ram

My dream
Is a wondrous dream
It's the answer too
Wanting only you

My dream
Is a true delight
My escape at night
From a world that's blue

The world we know
Seems so far away
And where we go
Is for us to say

My Dream
Is a wealth of joy
No one can destroy
When I dream my dream

It's no common dream
It's a wondrous dream
Dream


24.Harbour Lights

Lyricist:Wilhelm Grosz, Jimmy Kennedy, Hugh Williams

I saw the harbor lights
They only told me we were parting
The same old harbor lights that once brought you to me

I watched the harbor lights
How could I help if tears were starting
Goodbye to tender nights beside the silv'ry sea

I long to hold you near and kiss you just once more
But you were on the ship and I was on the shore

Now I know lonely nights
For all the while my heart is whisp'ring
Some other harbor lights will steal your love from me

I long to hold you near and kiss you just once more
But you were on the ship and I was on the shore

Now I know lonely nights
For all the while my heart is whisp'ring
Some other harbor lights will steal your love from me


25.T'Was The Night Before Christmas

Lyricist:Clement Clarke Moore, Steven V. Taylor

'Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse
The stockings were hung by, the chimney with care in hopes that
St. Nicholas would soon be there

The children were all nestled, all snug in their beds while
Visions of sugarplums danced in their heads

And momma in her kerchief and I in my cap
Had just settled down for a long winter's nap
When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter
I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter!

Away to the window, I flew like a flash
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash

The moon on the breast of the new fallen snow
Gave the luster of midday to objects below
When what to my wandering eyes should appear
But a miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer!

With a little ol' driver so lively and quick
I knew in a moment, it must be St. Nick!

More rapid than eagles, his courses they came
As he whistled and shouted and called them by name
â½Now Dasher, now Dancer, now Prancer and Vixen
On Comet, on Doner, an' Blitzen

To the top of the porch, to the top of the wall
Now dash-away, dash-away all

And as dry leaves that before the wild hurricanes fly
When they meet with an obstacle mount sky
So up to the housetop the courses they flew
With a sleigh full of toys and St. Nicholas too

And then in a twinkling I heard on the roof
The prancing and pawing of each little hoof

Ands I drew in my head and was turning around
Down the chimney St. Nicholas came with a bound
He was dressed all in fur from his head to his foot
And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot

A bundle of toys, he sprung on his back
And he looked like a, a peddler just opening his pack

His eyes how they twinkled, his dimples how merry
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry
His drawl little mouth was drawn up like a bow
And the beard of his chin was as white as the snow

The stump of a pipe, he held tight in his teeth
And the smoke it circled his head like a wreath

He had a broad little face and a, a little round belly
That shook when he laughed like a bowl full of jelly
He was chubby and plump, and a, a right jolly old elf
I laughed when I saw him in spite of myself

A wink of his eye and a twist of his head
Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread

He spoke not a word but went straight to his work
And filled all the stockings, and then turned with a jerk
An' laying a finger aside side his nose
An' giving a nod up the chimney he rose

He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle
An' away they all flew like the down of a thistle

But I heard him exclaim as he drove out of sight
â½Merry Christmas to all, Merry Christmas to all
And to all a goodnightâ


26.Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town

Lyricist:J Fred Coots, Haven Gillespie

You better watch out, you better not cry
You better not pout, I'm tellin' you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town

He's makin' a list and checkin' it twice
Gonna find out who's naughty and nice
Santa Claus is comin' to town

He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows if you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake

You better watch out, you better not cry
You better not pout, I'm tellin' you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town

With little tin horns and the little toy drums
Rudy-toot-toot and rummy tum tum
Santa Claus is comin' to town

And curly head dolls that cuddle and coo
Elephant, boat and the kiddy cars too
Santa Claus is comin'
Santa Claus is comin'
Santa Claus is comin' to town


27.Blue Christmas

Lyricist:Billy Hayes, Jay W Johnson

I'll have a blue Christmas without you
I'll be so blue thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
Oh, won't mean a thing if you're not here with me

I'll have a blue Christmas that's certain
And when that blue heartache starts hurtin'
You'll be doing all right with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue Christmas

I'll have a blue Christmas without you
I'll be so blue thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
Won't mean a thing if you're not here with me

I'll have a blue Christmas that's certain
And when that blue heartache starts hurtin'
You'll be doing all right with your Christmas of white
But we'll have a blue, we'll have a blue
We'll have a blue, blue Christmas


28.All I Want For Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth

Lyricist:Yetter Gardner Donald

All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth
My two front teeth, see my two front teeth
Gee, if I could only have my two front teeth
Then I could wish you, Merry Christmas

It seems so long since I could say
â½Sister, Susie sittin' on a thistleâ
Gosh, oh gee, how happy I'd be
If I could only whistle

All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth
My two front teeth, see my two front teeth
Gee, if I could only have my two front teeth
Then I could wish you, Merry Christmas

It seems so long since I could say
â½Sister, Susie sittin' on a thistleâ
Gosh, oh gee, how happy I'd be
If I could only whistle

All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth
My two front teeth, see my two front teeth
Gee, if I could only have my two front teeth
Then I could wish you, Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
No, Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas


29.For Auld Lang Syne

Lyricist:Clay Hicks

Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And days of auld lang syne?

For auld lang syne my dear
For auld lang syne
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet
For auld lang syne

For auld lang syne my dear
For auld lang syne
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet
For auld lang syne


30.Come Home For Christmas

Lyricist:Buck Ram

Won't you please come home for Christmas?
Everyone will be there
When it's time, come home for Christmas
We'll have your favorite chair

When your heart starts reminiscing
Things like kissing mistletoe
The glistening, you'll be missing
On the tree decked with cotton snow

So if you come home for Christmas
Oh, how the bells will ring
As we gather in the chapel
How we'll sing

It's been long but please remember
The faithful all come home for Christmas

It's been long but please remember
The faithful all come home for Christmas


31.Silent, Holy Night

Lyricist:Clay Hicks

Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
'Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in Heavenly peace
Sleep in Heavenly peace

'Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in Heavenly peace
Sleep in Heavenly peace

Silent night, holy night


32.Sixteen Tons

Lyricist:Merle Travis

Some people say a man is made outta' mud
A poor man's made outta' muscle and blood
A muscle and blood, skin and bones
A mind that's a-weak and a back that's strong

You load sixteen tons and what do ya get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine
I picked up a shovel and walked to the mine
I loaded sixteen tons of number 9 coal
And the store boss said, 'Well, a-bless my soul'

You load sixteen tons and what do ya get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

If you see me comin', better step aside
A lotta men didn't and a lotta men died
One fist of iron, the other of steel
If the right one don't getcha, then the left one will

Sixteen tons and what do ya get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

I was born one mornin' and it was drizzlin' rain
Fightin' and trouble are my middle name
I was raised in a canebrake by an ol' mama lion
Can't no-a high-toned woman make me walk the line

You load sixteen tons and what do ya get?
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store


33.The Wonder Of You

Lyricist:Baker Knight

Oh, oh, when no one else can understand me
When everything I do is wrong
You, you give me love and consolation
You give me hope to carry on

And you try to show your love for me
In everything you do
That's the wonder, the wonder
The wonder of you

And when you smile the world is brighter
You touch my hand and I'm a King
Your kiss to me is worth a fortune
No, your love to me is everything

And you're always there to lend me a hand
In all I try to do
That's the wonder, the wonder
The wonder of you

Oh, you'll never know how much I love you
My love for you is yours alone
And oh, it's so wonderful to have you
To have you for my very own

Guess I'll never know the reason why
You love me, love me like you do
That's the wonder, the wonder
The wonder of you


34.The Christmas Song

Lyricist:Mel Torme, Robert Wells

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos

Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the seasons bright
Little tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight

They know that Santa is on his way
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly

And so I'm offering this simple phrase
From kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said many times, many ways
'Merry Christmas to you'

Santa is on his way
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly

And so I'm offering this simple phrase
From kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said many times, many ways
'Merry Christmas to you'

(Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas)
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas to you


35.Joy To The World

Lyricist:George Frideric Handel, Lowell Mason, Isaac Watts

Joy to the world, joy to the world

Joy to the world the Lord is come
Let earth receive her King
Let every heart prepare Him room
And heaven and nature sing and heaven and nature sing
And heaven and heaven and nature sing

Joy to the world, joy to the world the Savior reigns
Let men their songs employ
While fields and floods, rocks, hills and plains
Repeat the sounding joy, repeat the sounding joy
Repeat, repeat the sounding joy

Repeat the sounding joy, repeat the sounding joy
Repeat, repeat the sounding joy

Oh, He rules the world with truth and grace
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness
And wonders of His love and wonders of His love
And wonders and wonders of His love

Joy to the world the Lord is come


36.Deck The Halls

Lyricist:Traditional

Deck the halls with, deck the halls with
Deck the halls with, deck the halls with

Deck the halls with boughs of holly
Fa, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
'Tis the season to be jolly
Fa, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

Don we now our gay apparel

37.Silver Bells

Lyricist:Raymond B Evans, Jay Livingston

Silver bells
Silver bells

City sidewalks, busy sidewalks, dressed in holiday style
In the air there is a feeling of Christmas
Children laughing, people passing, meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner you'll hear

Silver bells, silver bells
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, ring-a-ling
Hear them ring, hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day

Strings of streetlights even stop lights, blink a bright red and
green
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures
Here the snow crunch, see the kids bunch, this is Santa's big
scene
And above all this bustle you'll hear

Oh, silver bells, silver bells
Oh, silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, ring-a-ling
Can't you hear them ring, hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day

Silver bells
Silver bells


38.It's Magic

Lyricist:Sammy Cahn, Jule Styne

You sigh and the song begins
You speak and I hear violins
It's magic
(It's magic)

The stars desert the skies
And rush to nestle in your eyes
It's magic
(It's magic)

One or mystic charm
Fantastic things begin
When I am in your arms

When we walk hand in hand
The world becomes a wonderland
Oh, it's magic
(It's magic)

How else can I explain
Those rainbows when there is no rain?
It's magic, why do I tell myself
These things that happen
Are all really true

When within my heart I know
The magic is my love for you?
Why do I tell myself
These things that happen
Are all really true

When within my heart I know
The magic is my love for you?
(The magic is my love for you)


39.Only Because

Lyricist:Lynn Paul, John Small, Ralph Yates

Only because you're gentle
Only because you're sweet
I grow so sentimental
Anytime that we meet

Only because you're smiling
When others seem to frown
Strange how my heart keeps smiling
Only when you're around

The others may bring me excitement
It's just for a day
I know now for sure what that night meant
Our love is here to stay

Only because you guide me
I give my heart to you
Heaven is here beside me
Only because of you

Others may bring me excitement
It's just for a day
I know now for sure what that night meant
Our love is here to stay

Only because you guide me
I give my heart to you
Heaven is here beside me
Only because of you
'Cause of you


40.My Secret

Lyricist:Buck Ram

Whoa, I've got a secret
Nobody knows
The thrills and the glows
The ebbs and the flows

Whoa, I've got a secret
It's staring in me
It won't let me free
My future to be

Yes, I've got a secret
It changes me as time goes by
It's strange that no one knows why
But I

What's happened to me is wondrous to see
My future will be married to me
That is my secret

(Nobody knows)
Nobody knows
(The thrills and the glows)
The thrills and the glows
The ebbs and the flows

Whoa, I've got a secret
(It's staring in me)
It's staring in me
(It won't let me free)
It won't let me free
My future to be

Yes, I've got a secret
It changes me as time goes by
It's strange that no one knows why
But I

What happens to me is wondrous to see
My future will be married to me
That is my secret


41.If I Didn't Care

Lyricist:Jack Lawrence

If I didn't care more than words can say
If I didn't care would I feel this way?
If this isn't love then maybe I'm wrong?
But what makes my head go round and round, while my heart stands
still?

If I didn't care would it be the same?
Would my every prayer begin and end with just your name?
And would I be sure that this is love beyond compare?
Would all this be true if I didn't care, oh, for you?

If I didn't care would it be the same?
Would my every prayer begin and end with just your name?
And would I be sure that this is love beyond compare?
Would all this be true if I didn't care for you?


42.Red Sails in the Sunset

Lyricist:Jimmy Kennedy, Hugh Williams

Red sails in the sunset, way out on the sea
Oh, carry my loved one home safely to me
She sailed at the dawning, all day I've been blue
Red sails in the sunset, I'm trusting in you

Swift wings you must borrow
Make straight for the shore
We marry tomorrow
And she goes sailing no more

Red sails in the sunset, way out on the sea
Oh, carry my loved one home safely to me
Red sails in the sunset, way out on the sea
Oh, carry my loved one home safely to me


43.Ebb Tide

Lyricist:Robert Maxwell, Carl Sigman

First the tide rushes in
Plants a kiss on the shore
Then rolls out to sea
And the sea is very still once more

So I rush to your side
Like the on coming tide
With one burning thought
Will your arms open wide

At last we're face to face
And as we kiss through an embrace
I can tell, I can feel
You are love, you are really mine

In the rain, in the dark, in the sun
Like the tide at its ebb
I'm at peace in the web
Of your arms


44.Jingle Bell Rock

Lyricist:Joe Beal, Jim Boothe

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bell swing and jingle bell ring
Snowin' and blowin' up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop's begun

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bell chime in jingle bell time
Dancing and prancing in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air

What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one horse sleigh

Giddy-up, jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and jingle in a jingle beat
That's the jingle bell rock

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bell chime in jingle bell time
Dancing and prancing in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air

Oh, what a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go dancing in a one horse sleigh

Giddy-up, jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and jingle in a jingle beat
That's the jingle bell rock


45.Love Is A Many Splendored Thing

Lyricist:Sammy Fain, Paul Francis Webster

Love is a many splendored thing
It's the April rose that only grows in the early spring
Love is nature's way of giving a reason to be living
The golden crown that makes a man a king

Once on a high and windy hill
In the morning mist two lovers kissed
And the world stood still

Then your fingers touched my silent heart
And taught it how to sing
Yes, true love's a many splendored thing

Oh, once on a high and windy hill
In the morning mist two lovers kissed
And the world stood still

Then your fingers touched my silent heart
And taught it how to sing
Yes, true love's a many splendored thing


46.Smoke Gets Into Your Eyes

Lyricist:Otto Harbach, Jerome Kern

They asked me how I knew
My true love was true
I of course replied
Something here inside cannot be denied

They said, someday you'll find
All who love are blind
When your heart's on fire
You don't realize smoke gets in your eyes

So I chaffed and I gaily laughed
To think they would doubt my love
Yet today, my love has flown away
I am without my love

Now laughing friends deride
Tears I cannot hide
So I smile and say
When a lovely flame dies, smoke gets in your eyes


47.Twilight Time (Single Version)

Lyricist:A Dunn, Al Nevins, Morty Nevins, Buck Ram

Heavenly shades of night are falling, it's twilight time
Out of the mist your voice is calling, it is twilight time
When purple colored curtains mark the end of day
I'll hear you, my dear, at twilight time

Deepening shadows gather splendor as day is done
Fingers of night will soon surrender the setting sun
I count the moments darling till you're here with me
Together at last at twilight time

Here, in the afterglow of day
We keep our rendezvous beneath the blue
Here in the sweet and same old way
I fall in love again as I did then

Deep in the dark your kiss will thrill me like days of old
Lighting the spark of love that fills me with dreams untold
Each day I pray for evening just to be with you
Together at last at twilight time

Here, in the afterglow of day
We keep our rendezvous beneath the blue
Here in the sweet and same old way
I fall in love again as I did then

Deep in the dark your kiss will thrill me like days of old
Lighting the spark of love that fills me with dreams untold
Each day I pray for evening just to be with you
Together at last at twilight time, together at last at twilight
time


48.Helpless

Lyricist:Buck Ram

I'm so helpless without you
I'm helpless alone
I need you darling
Please don't make me cry

I, I, I, I just can't do without you
So helpless I've grown
I can't admit we've said
Our last goodbye

Why can't you help me
And come back to my arms
Won't you tell me
My fears are false alarm?

Is, is, is it hopeless to love you?
Don't tell me it's so
For nothing else would help less
Than to know

Why can't you a help me?
And come back to my arms
Won't, won't you tell me
My fears are false alarm?

Is, is it hopeless to love you?
Don't you tell me it's so
For nothing else would help less
Than to know

50.You'll Never Know

Lyricist:Mack Gordon, Harry Warren

(You'll never know)
You'll never, never know I care
You'll never know the torch I bear
You'll never know it, for I won't show it
Oh no, you'll never never know

(You'll never know)
You'll never, never see me cry
Not even when you're glancing by
For I won't weaken when we're speaking

Or else you never, no, no you'll never
Oh no, you'll never ever know
(You'll never know)

52.September Song

Lyricist:Maxwell Anderson, Kurt Weill

Oh, it's a long, long while from May to December
But the days grow short when you reach September

When the autumn weather turns the leaves to flame
One hasn't got time for the waiting game

Oh, the days dwindle down to a precious few
September, November

And these few precious days I'll spend with you
These precious days I'll spend here with you

Oh, the days dwindle down to a precious few
September, November

And these few precious days I'll spend here with you
These precious days I'll spend with you


53.Roses Of Picardy

Lyricist:Frederick E. Weatherly, Haydn Wood

She is watching by the poplars
Colinette with the sea-blue eyes
She is watching and longing and waiting
Where the long white roadway lies

And a song stirs in the silence
Like the wind in the boughs above
She listens and starts and trembles
For this is the first song of love

Roses are shining in Picardy
In the hush of the morning dew
Roses are shining in Picardy
But there's never a rose like you

And the roses may die with the summertime
And our roads may be far apart
But there's one rose that dies not in Picardy
That's the rose that I wear in my heart

And the years roll on for ever
Till the shadow veils their skies
But still he loves to hold her hand
And look in her sea-blue eyes

And she sees the road by the poplars
Where they met in the bygone years
And the first song of the roses
Is the last song that she hears

Roses are shining in Picardy
In the hush of the morning dew
Roses are shining in Picardy
But there's never a rose like you

And the roses may die with the summertime
And our roads may be far apart
But there's one rose that dies not in Picardy
That's the rose that I wear in my heart


54.I'm Gonna Sit Right Down And Write Myself A Letter

Lyricist:Fred Ahlert, Joe Young

I'm gonna sit right down and write myself a letter
And make believe it came from you
I'm gonna write words, oh, so sweet
They're gonna knock me off my feet
A lot of kisses on the bottom, I'll be glad I've got 'em

And I'm gonna smile and say, I hope you're feeling better
And close with love, the way you do
I'm gonna sit right down and write myself a letter
Baby, and make believe it came from you

And I'm gonna smile and say, I hope you're feeling better
And close with love, the way you do
I'm gonna sit right down and write myself a letter
And make believe it came from you


55.Stand By Me

Lyricist:Ben E King, Jerry Leiber, Mike Stoller

When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light
We'll see

No, I won't be afraid
Ohh, I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand
Stand by me

So darling, darling
Stand by me
Ohh, stand by me
Ohh, stand
Stand by me
Stand by me

If the sky that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
Or the mountain should
Crumble through the sea

I won't cry
I won't cry
No, I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand

Stand by me
And darling, darling, stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Whoa, stand now
Stand by me
Stand by me

Darling, darling stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Oh, stand now
Stand by me
Stand me

Whenever you're in trouble
Won't you stand by me?
Oh, won't you stand by me?
Whoa

Lyricist:Ernst Anschutz, Melchior Franck, Joachim August Zarnack

O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree
You stand in verdant beauty
O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree

O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree
You stand in verdant beauty

O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree
Ooh
O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree
Ooh

O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree
Much pleasure doth thou bring me

57.White Christmas

Lyricist:Irving Berlin

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten and children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white


58.Here Comes Santa Claus

Lyricist:Gene Autry, Oakley Haldeman

Hang your stockings and say your prayers
'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight

Here comes Santa Claus, here comes Santa Claus
Right down Santa Claus Lane
Vixen, Blitzen and all his reindeer
Are pulling' on the reins

Bells are ringing, children singing
All are merry and bright
Hang your stockings and say your prayers
'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight

Oh, here comes Santa Claus, here comes Santa Claus
Riding down Santa Claus Lane
He's got a bag that's filled with toys
For boys and girls again

Hear those sleigh bells jingle, jangle
Oh, what a beautiful sight
Jump in bed and cover your head
'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight

Well, here comes Santa Claus, here comes Santa Claus
Riding down Santa Claus Lane, you see it?

That makes everything right
Fill your hears with Christmas cheer
'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight

Well, here comes Santa Claus, here comes Santa Claus
Riding down Santa Claus Lane

It's Christmas morn again

Peace on Earth will come to all
If we just follow the light
Let's give thanks to the Lord above
'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight

'Cause Santa Claus comes to
'Cause Santa Claus comes to
'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight


59.Try A Little Tenderness

Lyricist:Jimmy Campbell, Reg Connelly, Harry Woods

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


60.If I Had You

Lyricist:James Campbell, Reginald Connelly, Ted Shapiro

I could show the world how to smile
I could be glad all of the while
I could change the gray skies to blues
If I had you

I could leave the old days behind
Leave all my pals, I'd never mind
I could start my life all a new
If I had you

I could climb the snow capped mountains
Sail the mighty ocean wide
I could cross the burning desert
If I had you by my side

I could be a king, dear, uncrowned
Humble or poor, rich or renowned
There is nothing I couldn't do
If I had you

I could show the world how to smile
I could be glad all of the while
I could change the gray skies to blues
If I had you

I could leave the old days behind
Leave all my pals, I'd never mind
I could start my life all a new
If I had you

I could climb the snow capped mountains
Sail the mighty ocean wide
I could cross the burning desert
If I had you by my side

I could be a king, dear, uncrowned
Humble or poor, rich or renowned
There is nothing I couldn't do


61.Prisoner Of Love

Lyricist:Russ Columbo, Clarence Gaskill, Leo Robin

Someone that I belong to
Doesn't belong to me
Someone who can't be faithful
Knows that I have to be
Wonder if I am wrong to give her my loyalty

Why should I be a lone soul?
Why can't I be my own soul?
Alone from night to night you'll find me

Too weak to break the chains that bind me
I need no shackles to remind me
I'm just a prisoner of love
For one command I stand and wait now

From one who's master of my fate now
I can't escape for it's too late now
I'm just a prisoner of love
What's the good of my caring if someone is sharing

Those arms with me
Although she has another
I can't have another for I'm not free
She's in my dreams awake or sleeping

Up on my knees to her I'm creeping
My very life is in her keeping
I'm just a prisoner of love, love


62.Pledging My Love

Lyricist:Don D. Robey, Ferdinand Washington

Forever, my darling, our love will be true
Always and forever, I'll love only you
Just promise me darling, your love in return
May this fire in my soul, dear, forever burn

My heart's at your command, dear
To keep love and to hold
Making you happy is my desire, dear
Keeping you is my goal

I'll forever love you for the rest of my days
I'll never part from you or your loving ways
Just promise me, darling, your love in return
May this fire in my soul, dear, forever burn

My heart's at your command, dear
To keep love and to hold
Making you happy is my desire, dear
Loving you is my goal

I'll forever love you for the rest of my days
I'll never part from you or your loving ways
Just promise me, darling, your love in return
May this fire in my soul, dear, forever burn


63.Crying In The Chapel

Lyricist:Artie Glenn

You saw me crying in the chapel
The tears I shed were tears of joy
I know the meaning of contentment
Now I am happy with the Lord

Just a plain and simple chapel
Where humble people go to pray
I pray the Lord that I'll grow stronger
As I live from day to day

I've searched and I've searched
But I couldn't find
No way on earth
To gain peace of mind

Now I'm happy in the chapel
Where people are of one accord
We gather in the chapel
Just to sing and praise the Lord

Every sinner looks for something
That will put his heart at ease
There is only one true answer
He must get down on his knees

Meet your neighbor in the chapel
Join with him in tears of joy
You'll know the meaning of contentment
Then you'll be happy with the Lord

You'll search and you'll search
But you'll never find
No way on earth
To gain peace of mind

Take your troubles to the chapel
Get down on your knees and pray
Your burdens will be lighter
And you'll surely find the way


64.Winter Wonderland

Lyricist:Felix Bernard, Richard B Smith

Sleigh bells ring, are you listenin'?
In the lane snow is glistenin'
A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland

Gone away is the blue bird
Here to stay is the new bird
He sings a love song as we go along
Walking in a winter wonderland

In the meadow we can build a snowman
And pretend that he is Parson Brown
He'll say, 'Are you married?', we'll say, 'No, man'
But you can do the job when you're in town

Later on we'll conspire
As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid, the plans that we've made
Walking in a winter wonderland

Later on we'll conspire
As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid, the plans that we've made
Walking in a winter wonderland

We'll go walking in a winter wonderland
Walking in a winter wonderland
Walking in a winter wonderland, hand in hand
We'll go walking, walking in a winter wonderland
In a winter wonderland


65.I'll Be With You In Apple Blossom Time

Lyricist:Neville Fleeson, Albert Von Tilzer

I'm writing you, my dear, just to tell you
In September, you remember
'Neath the old apple tree you whispered to me
When it blossomed again you'd be mine

I've waited until I could claim you
I hope I've not waited in vain
For when it's spring in the valley
I'm coming, my sweetheart, again

I'll be with you in apple blossom time
I'll be with you to change your name to mine

One day in May I'll come and say
Happy the bride, the sun shines on today

What a wonderful wedding there will be
What a wonderful day for you and me
Church bells will chime, you will be mine
In apple blossom time

I'll be with you in apple blossom time
I'll be with you to change your name to mine

One day in May I'll come and say
Happy the bride, the sun shines on today

What a wonderful wedding there will be
What a wonderful day for you and me
Church bells will chime, you will be mine
In apple blossom time


66.Bewitched, Bothered And Bewildered

Lyricist:Lorenz Hart, Richard Rodgers

I'm wild again, beguiled again
A simpering, whimpering child again
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered am I

Couldn't sleep, wouldn't sleep
Then love came and told me I shouldn't sleep
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered am I

Lost my heart, but what of it?
She is cold, I agree
She might laugh, but I love it
Although the laugh's on me

I'll sing to her, bring spring to her
And long for the day when I'll cling to her
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered am I


67.Sentimental Journey

Lyricist:Les Brown, Bud Green, Benjamin Homer

Gonna take a sentimental journey
Gonna set my heart at ease
Gonna make a sentimental journey
To renew old memories

Got my bag, got my reservation
Spent each dime I could afford
Like a child in wild anticipation
Long to hear that 'All aboard'

Seven, that's the time we leave, at seven
I'll be waitin' up for heaven
Countin' every mile of railroad track
That takes me back

Never thought my heart could be so yearny
Why did I decide to roam?
Gotta take that sentimental journey
Sentimental journey home

Sentimental journey


68.Stay As Sweet As You Are

Lyricist:Mack Gordon, Harry Revel

Stay as sweet as you are
Don't let a thing ever change you
Stay as sweet as you are
Don't let a soul rearrange you

Don't ever lose the charm you possess
Your loveliness, darling, the way you say yes
Stay as sweet as you are
Discreet as you are, you're divine, dear

Stay as grand as you are and as you are
Tell me that you're mine, dear
Young and gay or old and gray near to me or afar
Night and day I pray that you'll always stay as sweet as you are

Young and gay or old and gray near to me or afar
Night and day I pray that you'll always stay as sweet as you are


69.Life Is Just A Bowl Of Cherries

Lyricist:Lew Brown, Ray Henderson

People are queer, they're always crowing, scrambling and rushing
about
Why don't they stop someday, address themselves this way?
Why are we here? Where are we going? It's time that we found out
We're not here to stay, we're on a short holiday

Life is just a bowl of cherries
Don't take it serious, it's too mysterious
You work, you save, you worry so
But you can't take your dough when you go, go, go

So keep repeating it's the berries, the strongest oak must fall
The sweet things in life to you were just loaned
So how can you lose what you've never owned?
Life is just a bowl of cherries so live and laugh at it all

Life is just a bowl of cherries
Don't take it serious, it's too mysterious
At eight each morning I have got a date
To take my plunge 'round the empire state

You'll admit it's not the berries in a building that's so tall
There's a guy in the show the girls love to kiss
Get thousands a week just for crooning like this
Life is just a bowl of, aw, nuts so live and laugh at it all


70.My Serenade

Lyricist:Ram Buck

My serenade begins in the night
Plays the strings of my heart

My serenade becomes a delight
Your kisses help play the part

Sweet and strong love plays it soft
And our hearts begin to glow

As it plays our serenade
It's music with thrill to love

This is my serenade
My serenade, my serenade

This is my serenade
My serenade


71.Rudolph, The Red Nosed Reindeer

Lyricist:Johnny Marks

Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer
Had a very shiny nose
And if you ever saw it
You would even say it glows

All of the other reindeer
Used to laugh and call him names
They never let poor Rudolph
Join in any reindeer games

Then one foggy Christmas Eve
Santa came to say
'Rudolph, with your nose so bright
Won't you guide my sleigh tonight'

Then all the reindeer loved him
As they shouted out with glee
'Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer
You'll go down in history'

Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer
Had a very shiny nose
And if you ever saw it
You would even say it glows

And then one foggy Christmas Eve
Santa came to say
'Oh, Rudolph, with your nose so bright
Won't you guide my sleigh tonight'

Then all the reindeer loved him
As they shouted out with glee
'Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer
Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer
Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer
You'll go down in history'


72.I'm Just a Dancing Partner

Lyricist:Cynthia Crane, Herb Wiener, Paddy Young

Am I just another
Dancing partner?
Do you smile
At every boy this way?

Do you hold them all until
They're breathless?
Do you always find
Nice things to say?

When this dance is over
Will you dance with me once more?
My heart tells me you're
The love I'm longing for

If I'm just another
Dancing partner
Then I wish this dance
Would never end

When this dance is over
Will you dance with me once more?
My heart tells me you're
The love I'm longing for

If I'm just another
Dancing partner
Then I wish this dance
Would never end


73.Trees

Lyricist:Joyce Kilmer, Oscar Rasbach

Trees, I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree
A tree whose hungry mouth is pressed
Against the earth's sweet flowing breast

A tree that looks at God all day
And lifts her leafy arms to pray

Tree, a tree that may in summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair
Upon whose bosom snow has lain
Who intimately lives with rain

Poems are made by fools like me
But only God can make a tree

Poems are made by fools like me
But only God can make a tree
(I think that I shall never see)


74.1,000 Times

Lyricist:Luther Dixon, Inez Foxx

Don't you know I love you 1,000 times

Remember the love notes
The teacher found in school

'Coz, I had to write to you thousand times

Though my punishment was pleasure
You know I'd do it all over again

Did I had to write just a little bit more

Darling I love you, I love you

75.Don't Blame Me

Lyricist:Fields Dorothy, Mc Hugh Jimmy

Don't blame me for falling in love with you
I'm under your spell but how can I help it?
Don't blame me

Can't you see when you do the things you do?
If I can't conceal the thrill that I'm feeling
Don't blame me

I can't help it if that doggoned
Moon above makes me need
Someone like you to love

Blame your kiss, as sweet as a kiss can be
And blame all your charms that melt in my arms
But don't blame me


76.SleepyLagoon

Lyricist:Eric Coates, Jack Lawrence

A sleepy lagoon, a tropical moon and two on an island
A sleepy lagoon and two hearts in tune
In some lullaby land the fireflies gleam
Reflect in the stream they sparkle and shimmer
A star from on high falls out of the sky and slowly grows dimmer

The leaves from the trees all dance in the breeze
And float on the ripples I'm lost in the spell
That nightingales tell of roses and dew
The memory of this moment of love will haunt me forever
A tropical moon, a sleepy lagoon and you

Stand still, oh heaven and earth and river
Stand still, oh time in your endless flight
If love can but command the moon will stand
The sun won't wake, the day won't break and it will always be
tonight

The leaves from the trees all dance in the breeze
And float on the ripples I'm lost in the spell
That nightingales tell of roses and dew
The memory of this moment of love will haunt me forever
A tropical moon, a sleepy lagoon and you


77.Moonlight On The Colorado

Lyricist:Robert King, Billy Moll

Moonlight on the river Colorado
How I wish that I were there with you
As I sit and find each lonely, lonely shadow
Takes me back to days that we once knew

We were to wed in harvest time you said
That's why I'm longing for you
When it's moonlight on the Colorado
I wonder if you're waiting for me too

We were to wed in harvest time you said
That's why I'm longing for you
When it's moonlight on the river Colorado
I wonder if you're waiting for me too


78.I Love You 1000 Times

Lyricist:Luther Dixon, Inez Foxx

I love you, baby, 1000 times

Remember love notes
The teacher found in school
The whole class laughing
Gee, I felt just like a fool

Here comes the very funny, funny line
I had to write it a 1000 times

That I love you, love you
(Love you, I love you)
I love you, I love you
(Love you, I love you)
Girl, I love you, I love you 1000 times
(Love you, I love you)
Baby, I love you, you know that I do

The love notes I treasured
Loving you was not a sin
Punishment was pleasure
Oh, I'd do it all over again

I wrote and I wrote, till my fingers got sore
I had to write just a little bit more

'Cause I love you, love you
(Love you, I love you)
Girl, I love you, I love you
(Love you, I love you)
Girl, I love you, I love you 1000 times
(Love you, I love you)
You know I love you, you know I do

Did you read my letters
It's been on my mind?
All it said was
That I love you 1000 times

From then until this very same day
I still feel the same old way

'Cause I love you, love you
(Love you, I love you)
Girl, I love you, I love you
(Love you, I love you)
Girl, I love you, I love you 1000 times
(Love you, I love you)


79.Magnificent Sanctuary Band

Lyricist:Dorsey Burnette

Looking for Jesus, looking for the man
Looking for Jesus, looking for the man
Looking for Jesus

There are multitudes of people crying
Because they just won't try to understand
From the book I read, not one but all should fall here
Come and join the magnificent sanctuary band

There are multitudes of people dying
Well, temptation rules all over the land
But we should remember His commandments
Come and join the magnificent sanctuary band

Just singing in the band, talking to the Man
Bringing in the sheep all over the world, fast as they can
Singing in the band, talking to the Man
Drop everything you're doing to join the sanctuary band

Well, the Son of Man speaks of revelations
That is reaching out, reaching out His hands
Well, He has promised us all of our sweet salvation
Come and join the magnificent sanctuary band

Just singing in the band, talking to the Man
Bringing in the sheep all over the world, fast as they can
Singing in the band, talking to the Man
Drop everything you're doing to join the sanctuary band

Just singing in the band, talking to the Man
Bringing in the sheep all over the world, fast as they can
Singing in the band, talking to the Man
Drop everything you're doing to join the sanctuary band


80.The Magic Touch

Lyricist:Buck Ram

You've got the magic touch
You make me glow so much
It casts a spell, it rings a bell
The magic touch

Oh, uh, oh when I feel your charm
It's like a fourth alarm
You make me thrill so much
You've got the magic touch

If I go reeling, uh, oh
I'm feeling the glow
(Uh, oh)
But where can I go from you?

I didn't know too much
And then I felt your touch
And now I've learned I can return
The magic touch

If I go reeling, uh, oh
I'm feeling the glow
(Uh, oh)
But where can I go from you?

I didn't know too much
And then I felt your touch
And now I've learned I can return
The magic touch


81.Stormy Weather

Lyricist:Harold Arlen, Ted Koehler

I don't know why there's no sun up in that sky
Stormy weather, since me and my girl ain't together
Keeps rainin' all the time

Life is bare, gloom and misery's everywhere
Stormy weather, can't get my poor self together
Keeps rainin' all the time

Well now, since you went away the blues walked in and met me
If you don't come back to stay that rocking chair may get me
And I'll pray the Lord above will let me
Walk in the sun once more


82.Are You Sincere?

Lyricist:Walker Wayne P

Are you sincere when you say I love you?
Are you sincere when you say you love me too?
Oh, and are you really mine every day, all the time?
I've gotta know which way to go
Will our love grow? Are you sincere?

Are you sincere when you say I love you?
Honey, are you sincere when you say you love me too?
And are you really mine every day, all the time?
I've gotta know which way to go
Will our love grow? Are you sincere


83.Sleepy Lagoon

Lyricist:Eric Coates, Jack Lawrence

A sleepy lagoon
A tropical moon
And two on an island

A sleepy lagoon
And two hearts in tune
In some lullaby

The fireflies gleam
Reflects in the stream
They sparkle and shimmer

A star from on high
Falls out of the sky
And slowly grows dimmer

The leaves from the trees
All dance in the breeze
And float on the ripples

They're deep in the spell
As nightingales tell
Of roses and dew

The memory of
This moment of love
Will haunt me forever

A tropical moon
A sleepy lagoon and you

The memory of
This moment of love
Will haunt me forever

A tropical moon
A sleepy lagoon and you


84.I'll Be Home

Lyricist:Lewis Stanley J, Washington Ferdinand

I'll be home, my darling
Please wait for me
We'll stroll along together
Once more our love will be free

At the corner drugstore
Each Saturday we would meet
I'd walk you home in the moonlight
All of these things we'll repeat

So darling, as I write this letter
Here's hoping you're thinking of me
My mind's made up
So long until I'll be home to start serving you

I'll be home, my darling
Please wait for me
We'll stroll along together
Our love will be free


85.My Heart Belongs To Daddy

I used to fall in love with all those boys
Who maul the young cuties
But now I find, I'm more inclined
To keep my mind on my duties

While tearing off a game of golf
I may make a play for the caddy
But when I do, I don't follow through
â~Cause my heart belongs to Daddy

If I invite a boy some night
To dine on my fine finnan haddie
I just adore his asking for more
But my heart belongs to Daddy

Yes, my heart belongs to daddy
So I simply couldn't be bad
Yes, my heart belongs to daddy
Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da

So I want to warn you, laddie
Though I know you're perfectly swell
But my heart belongs to daddy
â~Cause my daddy, he treats it so well

There was a dame that a football game
Made long for the strong under graddie
I never dream of making the team
â~Cause my heart belongs to daddy

Yes, my heart belongs to daddy
So I simply couldn't be bad
Yes, my heart belongs to daddy
Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da

So I want to warn you, laddie
Though I know you're perfectly swell
That my heart belongs to daddy
â~Cause my daddy, he treats it so well


86.You Are Too Beautiful

You are too beautiful, my dear, to be true
And I am a fool for beauty
Fooled by a feeling that because I have found you
I could have bound you too

You are too beautiful for one man alone
For one lucky fool to be with
When there are other men
With eyes of their own to see with

Love does not stand sharing
Not if one cares
Have you been comparing
My every kiss with theirs

If, on the other hand, I'm faithful to you
It's not through a sense of duty
You are too beautiful
And I am a fool for beauty
You are too beautiful
And I am a fool for beauty
