A heart that longs for you. Two arms that will be true. These things I offer you. For a lifetime. . Two lips with one desire. To set your heart afire.
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire. Jack Frost nipping at your nose. Yule-tide carols being sung by a choir. And folks dressed up like Eskimos.. . Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe.
I was dancing with my darling to the Tennessee Waltz. When an old friend I happened to see. I introduced her to my loved one. And while they were dancing.
The evening breeze. Caressed the trees, tenderly. The trembling trees. Embraced the breeze, tenderly. . Then you and I. Came wandering by. And lost in a sigh.
Strange dear, but true dear,. When I'm close to you, dear,. The stars fill the sky,. So in love with you am I.. Even without you,. My arms fold about you,.
I just came back from a lovely trip along the Milky Way. Stopped off at the North Pole to spend a holiday. I called on dear old Santa Claus. To see what I could see.
Repeat after me. It's nice to talk with you. (It's nice to talk with you). Repeat after me. I love your eyes. (I love your eyes). . Repeat after me. It's nice to walk with you.
I must make up my mind today;. What to have, what to hold:. A poor man's roses,. Or a rich man's gold. . One's as wealthy as a king in a palace,. Though he's callous and cold..
If you're fond of sand dunes and salty air. Quaint little villages here and there. You're sure to fall in love with old Cape Cod. . If you like the taste of a lobster stew.
Forever my darling I'll love only you. And I will be faithful, too. Now and for always of my whole life through. That is my promise, my promise to you..
When the kisses get so long that you can't catch your breath. And the huggin' gets so strong that it's gotcha scared to death. Most people get married (married).
CHORUS. Tra-la-la, tweedlee dee dee it gives me a thrill. To wake up in the morning to the mockin' bird's trill. Tra-la-la, tweedlee dee dee. There's peace and goodwill.
I can't recall my mother, I don't remember dad. Mister and Mississippi was all I ever had. . Oh, I was born to wander, I was born to roam. And Mister and Mississippi made me feel at home.
Throw mama from the train a kiss, a kiss. Wave mama from the train a goodbye. Throw mama from the train a kiss a kiss. And don't cry, my baby, don't cry.
Go, go, go. . Oh, let me go, let me go, let me go, lover. Let me be set me free from your spell. You made me weep, cut me deep I can't sleep, lover. I was cursed from the first day I fell.
Hi-lee, hi-lo, hi-lup up up. Hi-lee, hi-lo, hi-left. Hi-lee, hi-lo, hi-lup up up. Hi-lee, hi-lo, hi-left. . Oh, I was left, left, right, right. Out of your arms.
I went to your wedding. Although I was dreading. The thought of losing you. The organ was playing my poor heart kept saying. "Your dreams, your dreams are through".
It was winter when you told me you were leavin'. I cried, I cried, I cried "Please, don't go". Came the springtime with its love song so deceivin'. I cried, oh, how I cried, no one will know.
Hush hush, sweet Charlotte. Charlotte, don't you cry. Hush hush, sweet Charlotte. He'll love you till he dies. . Oh, hold him darling please hold him tight.
To the east the factories stand. Like fire-breathing dragons against the sky. And from their throats a scarlet river. Burns itself into smoky lullabies.
