1.Daddy, Don't You Walk So Fast
Lyricist:Peter Callander, Geoff Stephens
The love between the two of us was dying
And it got so bad I knew I had to leave
But halfway down that highway when I turned around I saw
My little daughter running after me crying
Daddy, don't you walk so fast
Daddy, don't you walk so fast
Daddy, slow down some 'cause you're makin' me run
Daddy, don't you walk so fast
Now, it broke my heart to tell my little daughter
That her daddy had to run to catch a train
She had no way of knowin' I was leavin' home for good
I turned around and there she was again as she said to me
Daddy, don't you walk so fast
Daddy, don't you walk so fast
Daddy, slow down some 'cause you're makin' me run
Daddy, don't you walk so fast
If only for the sake of my sweet daughter
I just had to turn back home right there and then
And try to start a new life with the mother of my child
I couldn't bear to hear those words again, she cried and said
Daddy, don't you walk so fast
(My daughter cried)
Daddy, don't you walk so fast
Daddy, slow down some 'cause you're makin' me run
Daddy, don't you walk so fast
Daddy, slow down some 'cause you're makin' me run
Oh, daddy, don't you walk so fast
2.Danke Schoen
Lyricist:Milt Gabler, Bert Kaempfert, Kurt Schwabach
Danke Schoen, darling, Danke Schoen
Thank you for all the joy and pain
Picture show, second balcony, was the place we'd meet
Second seat, gold Dutch treat, you were sweet
Danke Schoen, darling, Danke Schoen
Save those lies, darling don't explain
I recall, Central Park in fall, how you tore your dress
What a mess, I confess, that's not all
Danke Schoen, darling, Danke Schoen
Thank you for walks down Lover's Lane
I can see, hearts carved on a tree
Letters inter-twined, for all time
Yours and mine, that was fine
Danke Schoen, darling, Danke Schoen
Thank you for seeing me again
Though we go on our separate ways
Still the memory stays, for always
My heart says, 'Danke Schoen'
Danke Schoen, oh darling, Danke Schoen
I said, 'Thank you for seeing me again'
Though we go on our separate ways
Still the memory stays, for always
My heart says, 'Danke Schoen'
Danke Schoen
Auf Wiedersehen
Danke Schoen
3.Years
Faded photographs
The feelings all come back
Even now
Sometimes
You feel something
I still see your face
Like it was yesterday
It's strange how the days
Turn into years.
Years of hangin on, to dreams already gone
Years of wishin you were here
After all this time, you think I wouldn't cry
It's just that I still love you
After all these years
Nighttime gently falls
Another day is gone
I turn around to find
You're still not here
I leave the hall light on
In case you come back home
It's funny, I've been saying that for years.
Years of hangin on, to dreams already gone
Years of wishin you were here
After all this time, you think I wouldn't cry
It's just that I still love you
After all these years.
After all this time, you think I wouldn't cry
It's just that I still love you
After all these years.
4.Everybody Loves Somebody Sometime
Lyricist:Sam Coslow, Ken Lane, Irving Taylor
Everybody loves somebody sometime
Everybody falls in love somehow
Something in your kiss just told me
My sometime is now
Everybody finds somebody someplace
There's no telling where love may appear
Something in my heart keeps saying
My someplace is here
If I had it in my power
I'd arrange for every girl to have your charms
Then every minute every hour
Every boy would find what I found in your arms
Everybody loves somebody sometime
And although my dream was overdue
Your love made it well worth waiting
For someone like you

6.Toot, Toot, Tootsie, Goodbye
Lyricist:Ernie Erdman, Gus Kahn, Russo
Toot, toot, Tootsie, goodbye
Toot, toot, Tootsie, don't cry
The choo choo train that takes me away from you
No words can tell how sad it makes me
Kiss me, Tootsie, and than do it over again
Watch for the mail, I'll never fail
If you don't get a letter then you'll know I'm in jail
Toot, toot, Tootsie, don't cry
Toot, toot, Tootsie, goodbye
Toot, toot, Tootsie, goodbye
Toot, toot, Tootsie, don't cry
The choo choo train that takes me away from you
No words can tell how sad it makes me
Kiss me, Tootsie, and than do it over again
Watch for the mail, I'll never fail
If you don't get a letter then you'll know I'm in jail
Toot, toot, Tootsie, don't cry
Toot, toot, Tootsie, goodbye
7.Red Roses for a Blue Lady
Lyricist:Roy C. Bennett, Sid Tepper
I want some red roses for a blue lady
Mister Florist take my order please
We had a silly quarrel the other day
Hope these pretty flowers chase her blues away
Wrap up some red roses for a blue lady
Send them to the sweetest gal in town
And if they do the trick, I'll hurry back to pick
Your best white orchid for her wedding gown
I want some red roses for a blue lady
Mister Florist take my order please
We had a silly quarrel the other day
Hope these pretty flowers chase her blues away
Wrap up some red roses for a blue lady
Send them to the sweetest gal in town
And if they do the trick, I'll hurry back to pick
Your best white orchid for her wedding gown
8.Summer Wind
Lyricist:Hans Bradtke, Heinz Meier, Johnny Mercer
The summer wind came blowing in across the sea
It lingered there to touch your hair and walk with me
All summer long we sang a song and strolled the golden sands
Two sweethearts in the summer wind
Like painted kites the days and nights went flying by
The world was new beneath a blue umbrella sky
Then softer than a piper man one day it came to you
I lost you to the summer wind
The autumn wind, the winter winds have come and gone
As still the days, the lonely days, go on and on
And guess who sighs his lullabies through nights that never end
My fickled friend, the summer wind
The summer wind
The summer wind
