Lover's Beach
Lover's Beach
Composer(s): Blore - Prior - Testi
Performer(s): The Lettermen
This is my dream the one I dreamed that someday you'll share
We're on a beach and we're so much in love the stars stop and stare
Stars have things to do but they stop to look at you there with me
Here by the sea on the beach
And then in my dreams the sea rolls in and kisses the sand
The sky holds the moon and the breeze holds a bird and I hold your hand
Everything is love and we know the meaning of
Something for each on lover's beach
Then you say that you love me, you're everything that is lovely
I want to memorize every kiss, every star in your eyes
This is my dream the one I dream that someday you'll share
What good's a dream when you wake up alone and nobody's there
Come and be with me at that place beside the sea
You'll find love is there within your reach
If you'll stay with me on lover's beach

or to make some woman smile"

Reviens-moi, mon amour

Regardons vers l'avenir
C'est lui qui doit nous sourire
Reviens-moi, mon amour
Il n'est plus loin le jour du retour
Mais toi, je t'attendrai
Toute la vie s'il le fallait
Les histoires du passé
Il faudra bien les oublier
Crois-moi, l'avenir est précieux
Il est double pour nous deux
Reviens-moi, mon amour
Il n'est plus loin le jour du retour
Mais toi, je t'attendrai
Toute la vie s'il le fallait
Je souhaite, ô mon amour
Qu'on retrouve nos beaux jours
Nous pourrons, si tu le veux
Nous pourrons être encore heureux

Composer(s): James Edward Davis - Roger J. Ramirez - James Sherman
First recording/First release by: Billie Holiday - 1944/1945
Covered by multiple other artists
I don't know why, but I'm feeling so sad
I long to try something I've never had
Never had no kissin', oh, what I've been missin'
Lover man, oh, where can you be
The night is cold and I'm so all alone
I'd give my soul just to call you my own
Got a moon above me, but there's no one to love me
Lover man, oh, where can you be
I've heard it said
That the thrill of romance can be
Like a heavenly dream
I go to bed with a prayer
That you'll make love to me
Strange as it seems
Someday we'll meet
And you'll dry all my tears
Then whisper sweet little things in my ears
Huggin' and a-kissin'
Oh, what I've been missin'
Lover man oh where can you be
Oh, what I've been missin'
Lover man, oh, where can you be

Lover Boy
Lover Boy
Composer(s): Rick Davies - Roger Hodgson
Performer(s): Supertramp
I'll tell you from the start
He's gonna break your heart
You can't stop the lover boy
You can't stop the lover boy
He's gonna tell you lies
But you won't realize
Because you can't stop the lover boy
You can't stop the lover boy
He's got a thing in his head
It's from a book he's read
It's got a funny title,
It tells you how to be vital
He took a lot of time
Over every line
Because it's guaranteed
To satisfy
He's gonna knock 'em dead
The boy's got that book read
You can't stop the lover boy
You can't stop the lover boy
Right from the clothes he wears
The way he combs his hair
You can't stop him now, because he knows all the tricks
He used to have a problem but he got it fixed
He took a small apartment
Above a shoe department
And he could see from his window
All the lights in the street glow
There's a club on the corner
And tonight he will go there
To find a new affair
So all you ladies beware
He's got to have a good time in the city
He's got to have a good time every night
He's gonna love 'em and leave 'em, cheat and deceive 'em
He's gonna show 'em who's wrong and who's right

Lover
Lover
Composer(s): Richard Rodgers - Lorenz Hart
First performance by: Jeanette MacDonald - 1932
Covered by multiple other artists
Lover, when I'm near you
And I hear you, speak my name
Softly, in my ear you breathe a flame
Lover, when we're dancing
Keep on glancing in my eyes
Till loves own entrancing music dies
All of my future is in you
You're every plan I design
Promise you'll always continue
To be mine
Lover, please be tender
When you're tender, fears depart
Lover, I surrender to my heart
Lover, it's immoral
But why quarrel with our bliss
When two lips of coral want to kiss
I say the devil is in you
And to resist you, I try
But if you didn't continue
I would die
Lover, please be tender
When you're tender, fears depart
Lover, I surrender to my heart

Lovely Weather For Ducks
Lovely Weather For Ducks
Composer(s): Jay Livingston - Ray Evans
Performer(s): Rosemary Clooney
and multiple other artists
When it’s pouring rain and people complain
And things aren’t worth the shucks
Don’t you yell, just say Well
Lovely weather for ducks
When it’s freezing snow, ‘bout zero or so
And the icy sidewalk glares
Don’t get cold feet, just repeat
Lovely weather for bears
Though all your cares seem double
There’s good in every bad
So sneer at Old Man Trouble
And he’ll go away mad
When your shoelace breaks
And your toothache aches
And you need a few more bucks
Don’t you pout, just sing out
Heavenly weather for what could be better for
Lovely weather for ducks
Though all your cares seem double
There’s good in every bad
So sneer at Old Man Trouble
And he’ll go away mad
When your shoelace breaks
And your toothache aches
And you need a few more bucks
Don’t you pout, just sing out
Heavenly weather for what could be better for
Lovely weather for ducks
Heavenly weather for what could be better for
Lovely weather for ducks

Lovely Way To Spend An Evening
Composer(s): Harold Adamson - Jimmy McHugh
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra
and multiple other artists
Some like a night at the movies, some like a dance or a show
Some are content with an evening spent home by the radio
Some like to live for the moment, some like to just reminisce
But whenever I have an evening to spend. just give me one like this
This is a lovely way to spend an evening. can't think of anything I'd rather do
This is a lovely way to spend an evening, can't think of anyone as lovely as you
A casual stroll through a garden. a kiss by a lazy lagoon
Catching a breath of moonlight, humming our favorite tune
This is a lovely way to spend an evening
I want to save all my nights and spend them with you
Catching a breath of moonlight, humming our favorite tune
This is a lovely way to spend an evening
I want to save all my nights and spend them with you

Lovely To Look At
Lovely To Look At
Composer(s): Dorothy Fields - Jerome Kern - Jimmy McHugh
Performer(s): Eddy Duchin
and multiple other artists
(she)
Clothes must play a part
To light an eye, to win a heart
They say a gown can almost speak
If it is chic
Should you select the right effect
You cannot miss
You may be sure
He will tell you this
Lovely to look at
Delightful to know and heaven to kiss
A combination like this
Is quite my most impossible scheme come true
Imagine finding a dream like you!
You're lovely to look at
It's thrilling to hold you terribly tight
For we're together, the moon is new
And oh, it's lovely to look at you tonight!
(he)
What appeals to me
Is just your charm and dignity
Not what you wear
But just an air, of great repose
You are quite perfect from your head down to your toes
Both night and day
I am moved to say
Lovely to look at
Delightful to know and heaven to kiss
A combination like this
Is quite my most impossible scheme come true
Imagine finding a dream like you!
You're lovely to look at
It's thrilling to hold you terribly tight
For we're together, the moon is new
And oh, it's lovely to look at you tonight!

Little Pony

Performer(s): The Pointer Sisters
and multiple other artists
I said hurry up, dig a little pony I know
Say that so
I said hurry up, dig a little pony, we'll blow
Ride, ride, ride
He's blowin' pretty, what a musical treat
Say that so
Look at him, blowin' steady, what a wonderful beat
Ride, ride, ride
Hurry up, hurry up
Do me the ditty up
Hurry up, hurry up
Go wake the city up
Hurry up, hurry up
Once more I wanna repeat
People pass word
He's the last word
That's the mass word
They don't dig 'til he's big, then they wig
Wanna say a lot about a little pony
Wanna celebrate the night the pony booted up the big beat
And by the time he got to cookin' everybody started lookin'
Well I can't stop telling about what he was doin'
To blow as though his heart was in it every minute
Singin' a pretty kind of sound, really givin' every pound
Neve acting like the greatest cat around
Every body dug him and he had 'em really drinking
Like the did a lot of swiggin' from a gallon jug
And then he cooled a while, sentimental style
Later on a little while he had 'em swinging, stompin' the floor
Little pony went a ridin', illustratin' what a horn was for
Had 'em comin' back for more, when they added up the score
It was joy galore!
Been down east, did up the west
Come to find, this little pony's the best
Blow your horn, do up the sound Sing your song, you're really
puttin' it down
Well, a little bit of listenin' with a passable ear
We'll get an awful lot of messages anywhere
Ride, pony ride, Be my wailing guide
Keep on singin', I dig, you're bringin' the word
Go pony, go, put me in the know
Dig me wiggin', that way, you're diggin' I heard
If anybody ever made it out to the coast
They can tell ya what I'm talkin' about
Little pony wailin' on the alto saxophone
Holler giddyup and gallop
Ball, pony, ball, don't be slow at all
Don't bashful, be like you're blowing for me
Gotta get along speedily
Got to get along, and do the coda
It's really the end, you see
Well thanks a lot, but pretty baby I must quit this scene
If you know what I mean
Don't be quittin', just when you're hittin' the peak
Get a record that'll play all week
Could be good bebop, could be!

Performer(s): Heart
You'd rather have wine than gin
Only the finest by your skin
Always running after Time - catching
You're fancy with rhyme
Shining on the front page again
Hot on the presses today - little queen
Making your passion play - little queen
Nobody knows your melancholy mind
Little queen
Away from the sellers, the papers said
Your crown was tight and heavy on your head
Still you danced and you sang - all night
The telephone rang
Music kept on playing from your pen
Hot on the presses today - little queen
Making your passion play - little queen
Nobody knows your melancholy mind
Little queen
Raining Raining- he knows your Soul ain't free
Raining Raining- he feels you little queen
Slipping away with your gypsy band
Hot on your music and playing a winning hand
He was standing in the line, thinking how you
Moved his mind
Feeling like he held you in his hand
