Come dear children, [Incomprehensible] all the family
[Incomprehensible] not a moment now to spare
Joyful haste is in the air
'Round and 'round the Christmas tree
Presents hanging there for you and me
Lights all shining merrily
Christmas a week away
A ring around the Christmas tree
Children making up a melody
Grown ups laughing happily
Christmas a day away
Wishing, hoping, boxes to open
But we...
You left today but you didn't say goodbye
I wonder why
I'm standing now where you made your vow
So blue for you, I could cry
Leaves come tumbling down 'round my head
Some of them are brown, some are red
Beautiful to see, but reminding me
Of a faded summer love
Swaying high above in the trees
They were so in love with the breeze
Now the autumn wind brings to them the end
Of a faded summer love
...
You've got to accentuate the positive
Eliminate the negative
Latch on to the affirmative
Don't mess with Mister In-Between
You've got to spread joy up to the maximum
Bring gloom down to the minimum
Have faith or pandemonium
Liable to walk upon the scene
To illustrate his last remark
Jonah in the whale, Noah in the ark
What did they do
Just when everything looked so dark
Man, they said we bette...
Proudly swept the rain by the cliffs
As on it glided through the trees
Still following with grief the liko
A hihi lehua of the vale
Aloha oe, aloha oe
Thou charming one who dwells among the bowers
One fond embrace, before I now depart
Until we meet again
One fond embrace, before I now depart
Until we meet again
Amor, amor, amor,
This word so sweet that I repeat,
Means I adore you.
Amor, amor, my love,
Would you deny this heart
That I have placed before you?
I can't find another word
With meaning so clear,
My lips try to whisper
Sweeter things in your ear.
But somehow or other,
Nothing sounds quite so dear,
As this soft caressing word I know.
Amor, amor, my love,
When you're away,
There is no day,
And...
Every time you're near a rose
Aren't you glad you've got a nose
And if the dawn is fresh with dew
Aren't you glad you're you
When a meadowlark appears
Aren't you glad you've got two ears
And if your heart is singin' too
Aren't you glad you're you
You can see a summer sky
Or touch a friendly hand
Or taste an apple pie
Pardon the grammar but ain't life grand
And when you wake up each morn'

Around the world I've searched for you
I traveled on when hope was gone to keep a rendezvous
I knew somewhere, sometime, somehow
You'd look at me and I would see that smile you're smiling now
It might have been in county down
Or in New York, in gay Paris or even London Town
No more will I go all around the world
For I have found my world in you
It might have been in county down
Or in New York,...

It seems like only yesterday
I sailed from out of cork
A wanderer from Erin's isle
I landed in New York
There wasn't a soul to greet me there
A stranger on your shore
But Irish luck was with me here
And riches came galore
And now that I'm going back again
To dear old Erin's isle
My friends will meet me on the pier
And greet me with a smile
Their faces, sure, I've almost forgot

Oh Baia-yah
When twilight is deep in the sky,
Baia-yah Someone that I long to see
Keeps haunting my reverie,
And so the loneliness deep in my heart
Calls to you, calls to you
Sweetheart of mine, I've sent you a valentine.
Sweetheart of mine, it's more than a valentine.
Be careful, it's my heart.
It's not my watch you're holding, it's my heart.
It's not the note I sent you that you quickly burned.
It's not the book I lent you that you never returned.
Remember it's my heart.
The heart with which so willingly I part.
It's yours to take to keep or break,
But please, be...
Beautiful girl, you're a lovely picture
Beautiful girl, you're a gorgeous mixer
Of all that lives under those big blue skies
My heart cries, beautiful girl
You're a dazzling icon, beautiful girl
I could never travel if I have you
You'd be my dream come true
There may be blonds and brunettes that are hard to resist
You surpass them like a queen
You got those lips that were meant to be kissed

There's a village smithy standin' under the chestnut tree

Bluebirds singin' a song
Nothin' but bluebirds all day long

They used to tell me I was building a dream
And so I followed the mob
When there was earth to plow or guns to bear
I was always there, right on the job
They used to tell me I was building a dream
With peace and glory ahead
Why should I be standing in line
Just waiting for bread?
Once I built a railroad, I made it run
Made it race against time
Once I built a railroad, now it's done

We were so in love the day love started
Who would think that we would soon be parted?
I just can't believe it's true
I make this appeal to you
Can't we talk it over? Let's talk it over
Before you tell me you're through
Can't we sit together and figure whether
This is the right thing to do
I hate the thought of spending nights all alone
Missing the thrill of nights that we've known
Can't we tal...
We were waltzin' together to a dreamy melody
When they called out, "Change partner"
And you waltzed away from me
Now my arms feel so empty
As I gaze around the floor
And I'll keep on changing partners
Till I hold you once more
Though we danced for one moment
And too soon, we had to part
In that wonderful moment
Something happened to my heart
So I'll keep changing partners
Till you're in my arm...
We'll be close as pages in a book
My love and I
So close, we can share a single look
Share every sigh
So close that before I hear your laugh
My laugh breaks through
And when a tear starts to appear
My eyes grow misty too
Our dreams won't come tumbling to the ground
We'll hold them fast
Darling as the strongest book is bound
We're bound to last
Your life is my life
And while life beats away in ...
When I'm worried and I can't sleep
I count my blessings instead of sheep
And I fall asleep counting my blessings
When my bankroll is getting small
I think of when I had none at all
And I fall asleep counting my blessings

And one by one I count them as they slumber in their beds
If you're worried and you can't sleep

Dancing in the dark till the tune ends
We're dancing in the dark and it soon ends
We're waltzing in the wonder of why we're here
Time hurries by, we're here and gone
Looking for the light of a new love
To brighten up the night, I have you, love
And we can face the music together
Dancing in the dark
What all love is all, what all song is all to them we can be young

Oh, Danny Boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen and down the mountainside;
The summer's gone, and all the roses falling,
It's you, it's you must go, and I must bide.
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow;
It's I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow;...
All day tomorrow,
I'll be whispering your name
And the day after forever
I know I'll do the same.
Maytime or winter
I won't let you out of sight,
And the day after forever,
We'll talk about tonight.
Your laughter is a melody
That I'll remember long.
It plays upon my heartstrings
It's my favorite song.
All through a lifetime
I'll be loving you and then
On the day after forever,
I'll just begin ...
I love those dear hearts and gentle people
Who live in my home town
Because those dear hearts and gentle people
Will never ever let you down
They read the good book from Fri' till Monday
That's how the weekend goes

With picket fence and ramblin' rose
I feel so welcome each time that I return
That my happy heart keeps laughin' like a clown

Something very strange and mystic happened to me
Something realistic and as weird as can be
Something that I feared, somehow is now endeared to me
And what a funny feeling, odd and yet so true

Did you ever hear a dream talking? Well, I did
Did you ever have a dream thrill you with, "Will you be mine?"

Way up in the sky, little lamb,
Do you see what I see?

In a sparkling moment, I loved you, you loved me
Oh, how sweet fate can be
In that happy moment, I forgot all my past
Now I realize the way the spell was cast, at last
Once we walked alone, down by the river
All the world our own, down by the river
Maybe the river made our love song start
Full was the river, yet more full, my heart
So I love you two, you and the river
I'll be there for you

There's a famous thoroughfare, I've heard collegiates say

Down the Old Ox road

By looking in maps
With a little investigation you'll discover perhaps

Frosty, the snowman was a jolly happy soul
With a corncob pipe and a button nose
And eyes made out of coal
Frosty, the snowman is a fairy tale, they say
He was made of snow but the children know
That he came to life one day
There must have been some magic
In that old silk hat they found
For when they placed it on his head
He began to dance around
Oh Frosty, the snowman was alive as he could be...
If you ever go across the sea to Ireland
Then maybe at the closing of your day
You will sit and watch the moon rise over Claddagh
And watch the barefoot gossoons at their play
Just to hear again the ripple of the trout stream
The women in the meadows making hay
And to sit beside a turf fire in the cabin
And see the sun go down on Galway Bay
For the breezes blowing over the seas from Ireland

Fingers press me tight

That's because it's the natural thing to do
And when a cat on a fence
Keeps his darling in suspense
And he's brave enough to face a well-aimed shoe
That's because it's the natural thing to do
And you know every dove
Has its heart set on love
Rabbits too, pet and pat
And there's nothin' wrong wit...

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas everywhere you go
Take a look in the five and ten glistening once again
With candy canes and silver lanes aglow.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Toys in every store
But the prettiest sight to see is the holly that will be
On your own front door....

Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
Jingle bells jingle bells
Jingle all the way
What fun it is to ride and sing
In a one horse open sleigh
Dashing through the snow
In a one horse open sleigh
O'er the fields we go
Laughing all the wa...
A clouded moon
Creeps across the clouded sky
Winds of January sigh and moan
And yet it's June
I can see a sky of blue
Dear the miracle is due to you, just you
It's June in January
Because I'm in love
It always is spring in my heart
With you in my arms
The snow is just white blossoms
That fall from above
And here is the reason, my dear
Your magical charms
The night is cold
The trees are bare

Just one more chance
To prove it's you alone I care for
Each night I say a little prayer for
Just one more chance
Just one more night
To taste the kisses that enchant me
I'd want no others if you'd grant me
Just one more chance
I've learned the meaning of repentance
Now you're the jury at my trial
I know that I should serve my sentence
Still, I'm hoping all the while
You'll give me just one mo...
There's a girl I'm wild about, every time I take her out
I hurry, I scurry, I worry so
And we always can be found, where there's no one else around
If I lost her, what a blow, I love her oh-wo-oh
Yes, I love her in the morning and I love her at night
I love her, yes, I love her when the stars are shining bright
I love her in the springtime and I love her in the fall
But last night on the backp...
Learn to croon.
If you want to win your heart's desire.
Sweet melodies of love inspire
Romance.
Just murmur da da dee da da da
And when you do
She'll answer da da dee da da
And nestle closer to you.
Learn to croon
You'll eliminate each rival soon
If you're heading for a sunny honeymoon
Learn to croon.
In days of old when nights were bold
Fair ladies were enraptured
By stirring deeds of chivalr...

Oh the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful
And since we've no place to go
Let It Snow Let It Snow Let It Snow
Shows signs of stopping
And I've bought some corn for popping
The lights are turned way down low
Let It Snow Let It Snow Let It Snow
When we finally kiss goodnight
How I'll hate going out in the sto...
Let me call you sweetheart
I'm in love with you
Let me hear you whisper
That you love me too
Keep the love light glowing
In your eyes so true
Let me call you sweetheart
I'm in love with you
Keep the love light glowing
In your eyes so true
Let me call you sweetheart
I'm in love with you
Let me whisper I love you,
While we are dancing and the moon's aglow,
Let me whisper I love you,
While we're romancing let me murmur low.
We're meant for each other, here under the palms,
Let me whisper I love you
You're so entrancing dancing in my arms

One minute to midnight
One minute to go
One minute to say good-bye
Before we say hello
Let's start the new year right
Twelve o'clock tonight
When they dim the light
Let's begin
Kissing the old year out
Kissing the new year in
Let's watch the old year die
With a fond good-bye
And our hopes as high
As a kite

Little Jack Frost get lost
You know you don't do a thing but put a bite on my toes
Freeze up the ground and take the bloom from the rose
Oh, little Jack Frost go away, go away
And don't you come back another day
There's lots of cold feet all the lovers complain
You turn up the heat down on lover's lane

Blue night and you, alone with me
My heart has never known such ecstasy
Am I on earth? Am I in heaven?
Can it be the trees that fill the breeze with rare and magic perfume?
Oh, no, it isn't the trees, it's love in bloom
Can it be the spring that seems to bring the stars right into this room?
Oh, no, it isn't the spring, it's love in bloom
My heart was a desert, you planted a seed

Beautiful miracle, pardon my lyrical rhapsody
Can't you see? Oh, you have captured me
Being so glamorous, now can't you be amorous just with me
Make it soon, cop a look at that moon
Love is just around the corner
Any cozy little corner
Love is just around the corner
When I'm around you
I'm a sentimental mourner
And I couldn't be forlorner
When you keep me on that corner
Just waiting for you

Never treat others with scorn
We're only here as we're born
Although you're way up
You may not stay up
Stop cheating your heart
Why most of the wealth you possess
High on the hill of success
On friendship you never should frown
You'll need the same friends on the weary way down
Oh, love thy neighbor
Walk up and say "How be ya
Gee, but I'm glad to see ya, pal
How's tricks? What's new?"

I'll come back to you some sunny day

Out of the darkness you suddenly appeared
You smiled, I was taken by surprise
I guess I should have seen right through you
But the moon got in my eyes
I was so thrilled by the love you volunteered
I gave my heart without a compromise
I guess you don't remember, do you?
When the moon got in my eyes
I thought a kingdom was in sight
I would have the right to claim
But with the morning's early lig...
The moon was yellow and the night was young
A smile brought us together and I was wond'ring whether
We'd meet again some day?
The moon was yellow and a song was sung
That vocal inspiration gave me the inclination
To give my heart away
Her we are
Is our romance to continue?
Will it be my luck to win you?
May I look that far?
My love is mellow and my hopes are strung
Around that cupid fellow, be...
Now, if you're think that I'm lookin' somewhat tanner
Don't go blamin' it on the sun
It's the moonlight and the sweetness in your manner
That's makin' me the healthy one
When the moon hangs low, I begin to glow
And my day has just begun
I'm gonna get a moonburn when I'm with you tonight
So very soon, I'll moonburn when you hold me tight
I'll ask the glowing stars up above me
What your lips wil...
Moonlight becomes you, it goes with your hair
You certainly know the right thing to wear
Moonlight becomes you, I'm thrilled at the sight
And I could get so romantic tonight
You're all dressed up to go dreaming
Now don't tell me I'm wrong
And what a night to go dreaming
Mind if I tag along
If I say, "I love you"
I want you to know
It's not just because there's moonlight
Although, moonlight bec...

Now is the hour
When we must say goodbye
Soon you'll be sailing
Far across the sea
While you're away
Oh, then remember me
When you return
You'll find me waiting here
Sunset glow fades in the west
Night over the valley is creeping
Birds cuddle down in their nest
Soon all the world will be sleeping
Now is the hour

Do you think I'll remember how you looked when you smile?
Only forever that's puttin' it mild

You came to me from out of nowhere
You took my heart and found it free
Wonderful dreams, wonderful schemes from nowhere
Made every hour sweet as a flower to me
And if you should go back to your nowhere
Leaving me with a memory
I'll always wait for your return out of nowhere
Hoping you'll bring your love to me
When I least expected, kindly faith directed
You to make each dream of mine come true...
A long time ago, a million years BC
The best things in life were absolutely free
But no one appreciated a sky that was always blue
And no one congratulated a moon that was always new
So it was planned that they would vanish now and then
And you must pay before you get them back again
That's what storms were made for
And you shouldn't be afraid for
Every time it rains it rains
Pennies from heav...
Don't throw bouquets at me
Don't please my folks too much
Don't laugh at my jokes too much
People will say we're in love
Don't sigh and gaze at me
Your sighs are so like mine
And your eyes mustn't glow like mine
People will say we're in love
Don't start collecting things
Give me my rose and my glove
Well, sweetheart, they're suspecting things
People will say we're in love

To and fro you sway, my heart's in time, I've learned to care.

Red sails in the sunset, I'm trusting in you
Swift wings you must borrow, make straight for the shore

Do you remember one September afternoon
I stood with you and listened to a wedding tune
And didn't I go with you on your honeymoon?

Where every day I had to pay another bill?
And if I'm not mistaken, dear, I pay 'em still
Remember me?

Take me in your arms and let me cling to you

Love's old song will be new
In the shadows when I come and sing to you
Shadows on the wall I can see them fall
Here and there everywhere

The rocks and rills are lonely too

No one but you, Sierra Sue

Calling for you, Sierra Sue

Meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner you'll hear
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city

The singing hills mmmmm
Are singing tonight mmmmm
And echoing a song of long ago
The singing hills mmmmm
Were singing that night mmmmm
That logvely night you said, quot;I love you soquot;

But now the wind and I

Still echoing among the singing hills

We're riding in a wonderland of snow
Giddy-yap giddy-yap giddy-yap it's grand
Just holding your hand
We're gliding along with the song of a wintry fairy land
Our cheeks are nice and rosy
And comfy cozy are we
We're snuggled up together

And sing a chorus or two

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
Sometimes I wonder why I spend
The lonely night dreaming of a song
The melody haunts my reverie...
Up here in the land of the hot dog stand
The atom bomb and the Good Humor Man

We love 'em to beat the band

Sometimes I wonder why I spend
The lonely night 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
And beside a garden wall
When stars were bright
You are in my arms
The nightingale told his fairy tale
A paradise where roses bloom
Though I dream...

That's when my caddie lost sight of it

Carry moonbeams home in a jar
And be better off than you are

A mule is an animal with long funny ears
Kicks up at anything he hears

And by the way, if you hate to go to school
You may grow up to be a mule
Or would you like to swing on a star

About a quarter after seven, we'll be pulling into paradise
When you see land

And catch one sniff of southern cooking

When you see folks

I'm thankful though I know it's ending all too soon
And thanks for unforgettable nights, I never can replace
And memories that linger like a haunting tune
It is better to have loved you...
The light-hearted gay
Kind of charm you display
That's for me

Or what is your favorite dish?

There I'll be
Just to make sure

Let me tell you a tale that is often told
In the great Celestial Hall
All about an angel only four years old
The littlest angel of all
How all day he would play with a little box
That to others had no words
Oh, but there were treasures in this little box
The treasures he brought from Earth
Just a butterfly with golden wings
A little piece of a hollow log
Two shiny stones from a river bank
And ...
We're off on the road to Morocco
This camel is tough on the spine
Hit me with a band-aid, Dad
Where they're goin', why we're goin', how can we be sure?
I'll lay you eight to five that we'll meet Dorothy Lamour
Yeah and get in line
Off on the road to Morocco
Hang on till the end of the line
I like your jockey, quiet
I hear this country's where they do the dance of the seven veils
We'd tell you ...
Love is lovelier the second time around
Just as wonderful with both feet on the ground
It's that second time you hear your love song sung
Makes you think, perhaps, that love, like youth
Is wasted on the young
Love's more comfortable the second time you fall
Like a friendly home, the second time you call
Who can say what brought us to this miracle we've found?
There are those who'll bet love co...
The singing hills
Mmm
Are singing tonight
Mmm
And echoing a song of long ago
The singing hills
Mmm
Were singing that night
Mmm
That lovely night you said, "I love you so"
The wind in the valley joined in our sweet refrain
But now the wind and I
Each night we cry, "Come back again"
Though you are gone
Mmm
The song lingers on
Mmm
Still echoing among the singing hills
Bing Crosby

On the first day of Christmas, my true love sent to me
A partridge in a pear tree.
[On the second day of Christmas, my true love sent to me
Two turtledoves
[And a partridge in a pear tree.]
On the third day of Christmas, my true love sent to me
Three French hens,
[Two turtledoves]
And a partridge in a pear tree.
[On the fourth day of Christmas, my true love ...
I've sung about the birds and bees
The daffydown dillies and the shady trees
I've covered mother nature inside out.
There's the old ox road, the old millstream
Pennies from heaven and darn that dream
Nothin that I haven't sung about.
I've sung some songs of sacrifice
I've even sung a few that offered good advice.
I've covered all emotions there's no doubt.
Like a fine romance, learn to croon

From quot;Tapsquot;- 'TIL REVEILLE
I dream the whole night through
Each night 'til I hear Re-vel-le
I dream, my dear, of you-
I have your face be-fore me.-
The mo-ments we're a-part.
From quot;Tapsquot; 'til I hear Re-vel-le-
I dream of you, Sweet-heart
repeats
Smile the while you kiss me sad adieu
When the clouds roll by, I'll come to you
Then the skies will seem more blue
Down in lovers lane, my dearie
Wedding bells will ring so merrily
Every tear will be a memory
So wait and pray each night for me
Till we meet again
So wait and pray each night for me
Till we meet again
Till we meet again
Down in lover's lane
Wait and pray each night for me
To you sweetheart Aloha
Aloha from the bottom of my heart
Keep the smile on your lips
Brush the tears from your eyes
One more Aloha then it's time for goodbye
To you sweetheart Aloha
In dreams I'll be with you, dear, tonight
And I'll pray for that day when we two will meet again
Until then sweetheart Aloha
To you sweetheart Aloha
In dreams I'll be with you, dear, tonight
And I'll pray for that...
I search for phrases
To sing your praises
But there aren't any magic adjectives
To tell you all you are
You're just too marvelous
Too marvelous for words
Like glorious, glamorous
And that old standby amorous
It's all too wonderful
I'll never find the words
That say enough, tell enough
I mean they just aren't swell enough
You're much too much
And just to very, very
To ever be
In Webster's dicti...
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Too-ra-loo-ra-li
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, hush, now, don't you cry
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Too-ra-loo-ra-li
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, that's an Irish lullaby
Over in Killarney, many years ago
My Mother sang a song to me in tones so sweet and low
Just a simple little ditty in her good old Irish way
And l'd give the world if I could hear that song of her today
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-...
Down where the trade winds play, down where you lose the day
We found a new world where paradise starts
We traded hearts way down where the trade winds play
Music was everywhere, flowers were in her hair
Under an awning of silvery boughs
We traded vows the night that I sailed away
Oh, trade winds, what are vows that lovers make?
Oh, trade winds, are they only made to break?
When it is May agai...
While I give to you and you give to me
True love, true love
So on and on it will always be
True love, true love
For you and I have a guardian angel
On high with nothing to do
But to give to you and to give to me
Love forever true
But to give to you and to give to me
Love forever true
Love forever true
Two, two cigarettes in the dark
He strikes a match 'til the spark
Clearly traces
One face is my sweetheart
Two, two silhouettes in a room
Almost obscured by the gloom
I was so close yet so far apart
It happened that I stumbled in
Upon their rendezvous
I heard my sweetheart whispering
"I love you, I love you, you know that I do"
Two, two cigarettes in the dark
Gone is the flame and the spark

What a friend we have in Jesus
All our sins and griefs to bear
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer
O what peace we often forfeit
O what needless pain we bear
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer
Are we weak and heavy laden
Cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Savior, still our refuge
Take it to the Lord in prayer
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?
Take...
When you dream about Hawaii
Don't forget to dream about that night we met
When you feel my arms around you
Will memory cling, echoing, I won't forget
When you hear the rippling water
As they kissed the silvery sand, so playfully
Will you hear me say 'I love you'
To the tune of steel guitars beneath the stars at Waikiki
When you dream about Hawaii, dream of me
When you hear the rippling water

Why must I live in dreams
Of the days I used to know?
Why can't I find real piece of mind
And go back to the long ago?
Where the blue of the night
Meets the gold of the day
Someone waits for me
And the gold of her hair
Crowns the blue of her eyes
Like a halo tenderly
If only I could see her
Oh, how happy I would be
Where the blue of the night
Meets the gold of the day
Someone waits for me
If o...
To the tables down at Mory's
To the place where Louie dwells
To the dear old Temple bar we love so well
Sing the Whiffenpoofs assembled
With their glasses raised on high
And the magic of their singing casts its spell
Yes, the magic of their singing of the songs we love so well
"Shall I Wasting" and "Mavourneen" and the rest
We will serenade our Louie while life and voice shall last
Then we'll ...
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the tree-tops 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"
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write

Sleigh bells ring, are you listening
In the lane, snow is glistening
A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland
Gone away is the bluebird
Here to stay is a new bird
He sings a love song, as we go along
Walking in a winter wonderland
In the meadow we can build a snowman
Then pretend that he is Parson Brown
He'll say, "Are you married?"
We'll say, "No man"
But you can ...
When skies are cloudy and gray
They're only gray for a day
So wrap your troubles in dreams
And dream your troubles away
Until that sunshine peeps through
There's only one thing to do
Just wrap your troubles in dreams
And dream all your troubles away
Your castles may tumble, that's fate after all
Life's really funny that way
No use to grumble, smile as they fall
Weren't you king for a day?
Just...
The other night dear, as I lay sleepin'
I dreamt I held you in my arms
When I awoke dear, I was mistaken
And I hunged my head and cried
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You'll never know dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away
You told me once dear, that you really love me
And no one else could come between
But now you've left me ...
You belong to my heart
Now and forever
And our love had its start
Not long ago
We were gathering stars while a million guitars played our love song
When I said quot;I love youquot;, every beat of my heart said it, too
'twas a moment like this
Do you remember?
And your eyes threw a kiss
When they met mine
Now we own all the stars and a million guitars are still playing
Darling, you are the song...
You must have been a beautiful baby
You must have been a wonderful child
When you were only starting to go to kindergarten
I bet you drove the little boys wild
And when it came to winning blue ribbons
You must have shown the other kids how
I can see the judges' eyes as they handed you the prize
I bet you made the cutest bow
You must've been a beautiful baby
'Cause baby look at you now
Does you...
You're all I want for Christmas
All I want my whole life through
Each day is just like Christmas
Anytime that I'm with you
You're all I want for Christmas
And if all my dreams come true
Then I'll awake on Christmas mornin'
And find my stocking filled with you
You're all I want for Christmas
All I want my whole life through
Each day is just like Christmas

I'm young and healthy
And you've got charms
It would really be a sin
Not to have you in my arms
I'm young and healthy
And so are you
When the moon is in the sky
Tell me what am I to do?
If I could hate you
I'd keep away
But that ain't my nature
I'm full of vitamin A, say
Say I'm young and healthy
So let's be bold
In a year or two or three
Maybe we will be too old
If I could hate you
I'd keep a...
