Vic Damone Unreleased Songs Lyrics
1.April in Portugal

Lyricist:Raul Ferrao, Jimmy Kennedy

I found my April dream
In Portugal with you
When we discovered romance
Like we never knew

My head was in the clouds
My heart went crazy too
And madly I said
'I love you'

This sad reality
To know it couldn't be
That's Portugal and love
In April

The music and the wine
Convinced me you were mine
But it was just the spring
Fooling me

I found my April dream
In Portugal with you
When we discovered romance
Like I never knew

Then morning brought the rain
And now my dream is through
But still my heart says
'I love you'

I found my April dream
In Portugal with you
When we discovered romance
Like I never knew

Then morning brought the rain
And now my dream is through
But still my heart says
'I love you'


2.Our Love Affair

Our Love Affair

Performed by Vic Damone

Our love affair is a wondrous thing
That we'll rejoice in rembering
Our love was born with our first embrance
And a page was torn out of time and space

Our love affair may it always be
A flame to burn through eternity
So take my hand with a fervent prayer
That we may live and we may share
A love affair to remember


3.You Were Only Fooling (while I Was Falling In Love)

You Were Only Fooling (While I Was Falling In Love)
Vic Damone

You were only fooling,
While I was falling in love,
It's a story as old as Adam and Eve,
I was making love,
But you were making believe.
You lied to me with kisses,
That I was once dreaming of,
You were only fooling, dear,
While I was falling in love.
(repeat entire verse)


4.You're Breaking My Heart

Lyricist:Pat Genaro, Sunny Skylar

You're breaking my heart 'cause you're leaving
You've fallen for somebody new
It isn't too easy believing
You'd leave after all we've been through

It's breaking my heart to remember
The dreams we depended upon
You're leaving a slow dying ember
I'll miss you, my love, when you're gone

I wish you joy, though teardrops burn
But if some day you should want to return
Please hurry back and we'll make a new start
Till, till then you're breaking my heart


I wish you joy, though teardrops burn
But if some day you should want to return
Please hurry back and we'll make a new start
Till, till then you're breaking my heart


5.An Affair to Remember (Our Love Affair)

Lyricist:H Adamson, L Mccarey, H Warren

Our love affair is a wondrous thing
That we'll rejoice in remembering
Our love was born with our first embrace
And a page was torn out of time and space

Our love affair, may it always be
A flame to burn through eternity
So take my hand with a fervent prayer
That we may live and we may share
A love affair to remember

So take my hand with a fervent prayer
That we may live and we may share
A love affair to remember


6.Cincinnati Dancing Pig

Lyricist:Al Lewis, Guy Wood

Cincinnati dancing pig
He's the barnyard mister big
Cincinnati dancing pig
With his riggedy, jiggedy
Jiggedy, jiggedy jig-a-jig-jig

Children yell and clap and sing
When he does his buck and wing
Cincinnati dancing pig
With his riggedy, jiggedy
Jiggedy, jiggedy jig-a-jig-jig

Dancing bears and kangaroos
Have a lot on the ball
But until you dig that remarkable pig
You ain't seen nothin' at all

From Duluth to Birmingham
He's the pork chop Dapper Dan
He's the keenest ham what am
Cincinnati dancing pig
With his riggedy jiggedy jig-jig-jig


7.Gigi

Lyricist:Alan Jay Lerner, Frederick Loewe

Gigi, am I a fool without a mind
Or have I merely been too blind to realize?
Oh Gigi, why you've been growin' up before my eyes?

Gigi, you're not at all that funny awkward little girl I knew
Oh no, overnight there's been a breathless change in you

Oh Gigi, why you were tremblin' on the brink
Was I out yonder somewhere blinkin' at a star?
Oh Gigi, have I been standin' up too close or back too far?

When did your sparkle turn to fire
And your warmth become desire?
Oh, what miracle has made you the way you are?

Oh Gigi, why you were tremblin' on the brink
Was I out yonder somewhere blinkin' at a star?
Oh Gigi, have I been standin' up too close or back too far?

When did your sparkle turn to fire
And your warmth become desire?
Oh, what miracle has made you the way you are?


8.Again

Lyricist:Dorcas Cochran, Lionel Newman

Again, this couldn't happen again
This is that once in a lifetime
This is the thrill divine

What's more, this never happened before
Though I have prayed for a lifetime
That such as you would suddenly be mine

Mine to hold as I'm holding you now and yet never so near
Mine to have when the now and the here disappear
What matters, dear, for

When this doesn't happen again
We'll have this moment forever
But never, never again
Again


9.Why Was I Born?

Lyricist:Oscar Ii Hammerstein, J Kern

Why was I born? Why am I living?
What do I get? What am I giving?
Why do I want a thing I daren't hope for?
What can I hope for? I wish I knew

Why do I try to hold you near me
Why do I cry? You never hear me
I'm a poor fool but what can I do?
Why was I born to love you?

Why do I try to hold you near me
Why, why do I cry? You never hear me
I'm a poor fool but what can I do?
Why was I born to love you?


10.On the Street Where You Live

Lyricist:Alan Jay Lerner, Frederick Loewe

Oh, the towering feeling
Just to know somehow you are near

I have often walked on this street before
But the pavement always stayed beneath my feet before
All at once am I several stories high
Knowing I'm on the street where you live

Are there lilac trees in the heart of town?
Can you hear a lark in any other part of town?
Does enchantment pour out of every door?
No, it's just on the street where you live

Oh, the towering feeling
Just to know somehow you are near
The overpowering feeling
That any second you may suddenly appear

People stop and stare, they don't bother me
For there's nowhere else on earth that I would rather be
Let the time go by, I won't care if I
Can be here on the street where you live


11.My Truly, Truly Fair

Lyricist:Bob Merrill

Some men plow the open plains, some men sail the brine
But I'm in love with a pretty maid, for work I have no time

My, truly, truly fair
Truly, truly fair
How I love my truly fair
There's songs to sing her, trinkets to bring her
Flowers for her golden hair

Once I sailed from Boston Bay bound for Singapore
But one day out and I missed her so, I swam right back to shore

My, truly, truly fair
Truly, truly fair
How I love my truly fair
There's songs to sing her, trinkets to bring her
Flowers for her golden hair

Some men work to live long day, just for bread and wine
But I sit out on a moon light night and kiss her lip from mine

My, truly, truly fair
Truly, truly fair
How I love my truly fair
There's songs to sing her, trinkets to bring her
Flowers for her golden hair

I love she and she loves me, pardon if I boast
At times we fight all the live long night 'bout who loves who
the most

My, truly, truly fair
Truly, truly fair
How I love my truly fair
There's songs to sing her, trinkets to bring her
Flowers for her golden hair

Soon I'm gonna marry her, and love her till I die
There ain't no livin' on love alone but still I'm gonna try

My, truly, truly fair
Truly, truly fair
How I love my truly fair
There's songs to sing her, trinkets to bring her
Flowers for her golden hair

Truly, truly fair
