Volare

Mitchell Parish - Domenico Modugno - Francesci Migliacci

© Robbins Music, ASCAP

Volare oh oh
Cantare oh oh oh oh

Let's fly way up to the clouds
Away from the maddening crowds
We can sing in the glow of a star that I know of
Where lovers enjoy peace of mind
Let us leave the confusion and all disillusion behind
Just like birds of a feather a rainbow together we'll find

Volare oh oh
E contare oh oh oh oh

No wonder my happy heart sings
Your love has given me wings
Penso che un sogno cosi non ritorni mai piu
Mi dipingevo le mani e la faccia di blu
Poi d'improvviso venivo dal vento rapito
E incominciavo a volare nel cielo infinito

Volare oh oh
E contare oh oh oh oh

Nel blu dipinto di blu felice di stare lassu
E volavo volavo felice piu in alto del sole ed ancora piu su
Mentre il mondo pian piano spariva lontano laggiu
Una musica dolce suonava soltanto per me

Volare oh oh
E cantare oh oh oh oh

No wonder my happy heart sings
Your love has given me wings
Nel blu dipinto di blu
Felice di stare lassu
Nel blu dipinto di blu

Write To Me From Naples

Jimmy Kennedy - Alex Alstone

© Broadcast Music, BMI

(I can hear a mandolino)

Write to me from Naples
Write me every day
I love you and Naples
More than words can say

Call me Cara Mia
Tell me all that's new
Write to me from Naples
Keep my heart with you

(I can hear a mandolino softly entice
While I raise a glass of vino praising your eyes)
Since we said Arrivederci my poor heart cries
For a letter from you

Write to me from Naples
[ instrumental ]
I love you and Naples
[ instrumental ]
Call me Cara Mia...
Keep my heart with you

The Test Of Time

Sammy Cahn - James VanHeusen

© Maraville Music, ASCAP

Tonight I know the kiss we share is sweet beyond compare
But will it stand the test of time
The lovely glow that's in your eyes the music in your sighs
Oh will they stand the test of time

Time changes mountains time changes rivers
Time changes winter to spring
Time changes everything they say
But if the thrill we feel tonight is really really right
You'll never take your hand from mine
And our love will stand the test of time
[ instrumental ]
Time changes mountains time changes rivers
Time changes winter to spring
Time changes everything they say
But if the thrill we feel tonight is really really right
You'll never take your hand from mine
And our love will stand the test the test of time

Don't You Remember

Ace Dinning

© Meridian Music, BMI

(Remember remember)

Don't you remember when I met you
Didn't the moon look big that night
Didn't you say my arms felt right about you
Don't you remember how I kissed you
Didn't you snuggle close to me
Didn't you say I'd never be without you

Now your love's grown cold as December
And the blue skies have all turned to gray
In my heart I will always remember
All the love that we knew yesterday

Don't you remember what you promised
Didn't we set a wedding day
Didn't you say you'd wait
Don't you remember
(Stop stop stop pretending)

(Don't you remember it was springtime
How all the roses were in bloom
You had my picture upside down remember
And then there was the time
That we made our plans about the future
We said we'd really settle down
We'd build a house out side of town remember)

Now your love's grown cold as December
And my blue skies have all turned to gray
In my heart I will always remember
All the love that we knew yesterday
(Don't you remember)

Don't you remember what you promised
Didn't we set a wedding day
Didn't you say you would wait
Don't you remember
(Stop pretending I remember)
Remember

The Look

Bob Russell

© Music Sales, ASCAP

The look
As she pass she flashed that come hither look
The look
That was meant for me and for me alone
The look
Would be out of place in a children's book
The look
That could chip a piece off a heart of stone

Consider a bit this interesting little tableau
A look I could read but where would it lead me to
But mischievous elf I labeled myself diablo
And did just exactly what she was sure I'd do

Now at her beck and call
She ties me to the strings of her Spanish shawl
That isn't all
One foot out the door and she gives me the look

I say goodbye now she puts her foot down
I'm flying high now that's when I'm put down
I wanna die now she puts her foot down
Freezes me with the look

Someday if she sashays by you and looks your way
I'd say you'll do well if you overlook the look
The look the look

Solo tu solo tu solo tu solo tu mio cuore

Buona Sera

Carl Sigman - Peter DeRose

© Enterprise Music, ASCAP

Buona sera signorina buona sera
It is time to say goodnight to Napoli
Though it's hard for us to whisper buona sera
With that old moon above the Mediterranean sea

In the morning signorina we'll go walking
Where the mountains help the moon come in to sight
And by the little jewelry shop we'll stop and linger
While I buy a wedding ring for your finger
In the meantime let me tell you that I love you
Buona sera signorina kiss me goodnight
Buona sera signorina kiss me goodnight
[ instrumental ]
(Buona sera signorina buona sera
It is time to say goodnight to Napoli
Though it's hard for us to whisper buona sera
With that old moon above the Mediterranean sea)

In the morning signorina we'll go walking...

I Know I Can't Forget

Audrey Allison - Vivian Keith

© Central Songs, BMI

There were other loves before I found you
And I wish sometimes that we had never met
For life without you darling can never be the same
For having loved you once I can't forget

I remember all your smiles and laughter
I remember love light shining in your eyes
And though I only had you for just a little while
When you were there the whole world seemed so right

I remember these things through bitter tears
The touch of your hand in my own
And though you're not here through the lonely years
With memories of you I'll never be alone

There'll maybe other arms to soothe my sadness
There will be other loves that I have never met
But life without you darling can never be the same
For having loved you once I can't forget you

(For life without you darling can never be the same)
For having loved you once (for having loved you once)
I can't (I can't) forget
(I know I can't I can't forget)

(Angel baby you're mine forever)
Angel baby you angel baby you)

Who is the dream who starts me dreaming angel baby
Then keeps me worrying and scheming you angel baby you
Who starts me walkin' round in clover angel baby
Then flips my crazy heart right over you angel baby you

Who is the chick I would pick as the absolutely perfect miss for me to kiss
Who is the girl who can curl me around her finger when we kiss again
Who can imagine what I'd give for angel baby
Just for the chance to love and live for you angel baby you

(Angel baby) you're mine forever

Who is the girl who can twirl him around her little finger when they kiss again)

Larry Shay - Joe Goodwin - Mark Fisher

When you're smiling when you're smiling
The whole world smiles with you
When you're laughing oh when you're laughing
The sun comes shining through

But when you're crying you bring on the rain
So stop your sighing be happy again
Keep on smiling cause when you're smiling
The whole world smiles with you
[ instrumental ]
But when you're crying you bring on the rain...

Making love ukulele style
Making love ukulele style)

Making love ukulele style you needn't be in Waikiki
Making love ukulele style to a lovely ukulele serenade

When you love ukulele style
Well everyone knows you're heart will float
Far away to a tropic isle
While a ukulele tune is softly played

Strolling along beneath the starlight
Dreaming a lover's dream for two
Soon you'll see her eyes of star bright
As the ukulele magic comes through

Now if you wanna satisfy the one that you love all else above
Take a tip and be sure you try the ukulele style of making love

Strolling along beneath the starlight...

Now if you want to satisfy the one that you love all else above
Take a tip and be sure you try the ukulele style of making love
Try the ukulele style of making love
Try the ukulele style of making love

Promise Her Anything (But Give Her Love)

Roy Alfred

© Planetary Music, ASCAP

Promise her diamonds that sparkle like rain
Promise her orchids and lots of champagne
Promise her stars in the sky above
Promise her anything but give her love

Promise her perfume and glamorous furs
Promise her bankbooks that say his and hers
Promise her things she's been dreaming of
Promise her anything but give her love

You may not be a rich man but you don't need wealth or fame
Just show her that you really care and she'll love you just the same

Promise her bracelets of silver and jade
Promise her servants a butler and maid
She'll cuddle up close like a hand in a glove
Just promise her anything but give her love
[ instrumental ]
Promise her bracelets of silver and jade
Promise her servants a butler and amide
She'll cuddle up close like a hand in a glove
Just promise her anything but give her love love love
Promise her anything but give her love
