1. _ Stardust
Writer(s): hoagy carmichael
Verse:
And now the purple dusk of twilight time
Steals across the meadows of my heart
High up in the sky the little stars climb
Always reminding me that we're apart
You wander down the lane and far away
Leaving me a song that will not die
Love is now the stardust
Of yesterday
The music
Of the years
Gone by
Chorus:
Sometimes i wonder why i spend
The lonely nights
Dreaming of a song.
The melody haunts my reverie
And i am once again with you.
When our love was new, and each kiss an inspiration.
But that was long ago, and now my consolation
Is in the stardust of a song.
Beside the garden wall, when stars are bright
You are in my arms
The nightingale tells his fairy tale
Of paradise where roses grew.
Though i dream in vain, in my heart you will remain
My stardust melody
The memory of love's refrain.

2. _ Blue Skies
Writer(s): irving berlin
Blue skies, smilin' at me
Nothin' but blues skies do i see
Bluebirds singin' a song
Nothin' but bluebirds all day long
All the days are hurryin' by
When you're in love, my how they fly
Blue days, all of them gone
Nothin' but blue skies from now on

3. _ Night And Day
Writer(s): cole porter
Like the beat beat beat of the tom-tom
When the jungle shadows fall
Like the tick tick tock of the stately clock
As it stands against the wall
Like the drip drip drip of the raindrops
When the summer shower is through
So a voice within me keeps repeating you, you, you
Night and day, you are the one
Only you beneath the moon or under the sun
Whether near to me, or far
It's no matter darling where you are
I think of you
Day and night, night and day, why is it so
That this longing for you follows wherever i go
In the roaring traffic's boom
In the silence of my lonely room
I think of you
Day and night, night and day
Under the hide of me
There's an oh such a hungry yearning burning inside of me
And this torment won't be through
Until you let me spend my life making love to you
Day and night, night and day

4. _ I Think Of You
In the hush of evening
As shadows steal across my lonely room
I think of you
I think of you
From afar the music
Of violins come softly through the gloom
All i can do
Is think of you
O i can see you standing there before me
And i can hear you whisper
You adore me
So when dusk is falling
I live again the loveliness we knew
I think of you
I think of you

5. _ Without A Song
Writer(s): youmans/rose/deliscu
Without a song, the day would never end
Without a song, the road would never have been
When things go wrong, a man ain't got a friend
Without a song
That field of corn, would never see a plow
That field of corn, would be deserted now
A man is born, but he's no good no how
Without a song
I've got my trouble and woe, but sure as i know
The jordan will roll
I'll get along, as long as a song
Is strung in my soul
I'll never know, what makes the rain to fall
I'll never know, what makes the grass so tall
I only know, there ain't no love at all
Without a song

6. _ Fools Rush In
Writer(s): mercer/bloom
Fools rush in
Where angels fear to tread
And so i come to you my love
My heart above my head
Though i see
The danger there
If there's a chance for me
Then i don't care
Fools rush in
Where wise men never go
But wise men never fall in love
So how are they to know
When we met
I felt my life begin
So open up your heart and let
This fool rush in

7. _ Sky Fell Down, The
The sky fell down when i met you,
The green of the countryside has turned to blue,
I had the moon right on my fingertips,
And when first we kissed, there were stars on your lips.
To be with you just made it seem
That walking on snowy clouds was not a dream,
You gave to me all this and heaven too,
When the sky fell down and i met you.

8. _ This Love Of Mine
Writer(s): parker/sanicola/sinatra
This love of mine goes on and on,
Tho' life is empty since you have gone.
You're always on my mind, tho' out of sight
It's lonesome thru the day,
But oh! the night.
I cry my heart out it's bound to break,
Since nothing matters, let it break.
I ask the sun and the moon,
The stars that shine,
What's to become of it, this love of mine.

9. _ Imagination
Writer(s): van heusen/burke
Imagination is funny
It makes a cloudy day sunny
It makes a bee think of honey
Just as i think of you
Imagination is crazy
Your whole perspective gets hazy
Starts you asking a daisy
What to do, what to do
Have you ever felt a gentle touch
And then a kiss, and then and then
Find it's only your imagination again
Imagination is silly
You go around willy nilly
For example i go around wanting you
And yet i can't imagine that you want me too

10. _ Once In A While
Once in awhile, will you try to give one little thought to me,
Though someone else may be nearer your heart.
Once in a while, will you dream of the moments i shared with you,
Moments before we two drifted apart.
In love's smoldering ember, just one spark may remain,
If love still can remember, that spark may burn again.
I know that i'd be contented with yesterday's memory,
Knowing you think of me once in a while.

11. _ In The Blue Of The Evening
In the blue of evening when you appear close to me, dear one,
There in the dusk we'll share a dream reverie,
In the blue of evening while crickets call and stars are falling,
There 'neath the midnight sky you'll come to me.
In the shadows of the night we'll stand, i'll touch your hand.
And then, softly as your lovely eyes entreat, our lips will meet again.
In the blue of evening, night winds above whisper i love you,
There will we find romance in the blue of evening.

12. _ One I Love Belongs To Somebody Else, The
You know the one i love belongs to somebody else,
That's why she sings her songs to somebody else,
And even when you have your arms around her
You know her thoughts are with somebody else,
And when i hold her hand they belong to somebody else
And you can bet they're not so cold to somebody else,
It's tough to be alone on a shelf,
And it is worse to fall in love by yourself
When the one you love belongs to somebody else.

13. _ Polkadots And Moonbeams
Writer(s): burke/van heusen
A country dance was being held in a garden
I felt a bump and heard an "oh, beg your pardon"
Suddenly i saw - polka dots and moonbeams
All around a pug-nosed dream
The music started, and was i the perplexed one
I held my breathe, and said "may i have the next one?"
In my frightened arms - polka dots and moonbeams
Sparkled on a pug-nosed dream
There were questions in the eyes of other dancers
As we floated over the floor
There were questions but my heart knew all the answers
And perhaps a few things more
Now in a cottage, built of lilacs and laughter
I know the meaning, of the words: "ever after"
And i'll always see polka dots and moonbeams
When i kiss my pug-nosed dream

14. _ How Am I To Know
Oh, how am i to know if it's really love that found its grave here,
Oh, how am i to know, will it linger on, and leave me there.
I dare not guess at this strange happiness
Oh, how am i to know, can it be that love has come to stay here,

15. _ I'll Never Smile Again
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
Within my heart
I know i will never start
To smile again
Until i smile at you
