It's only a paper moon sailing over a cardboard sea. But it wouldn't be make believe if you believe in me. It's only a canuas sky hanging over a muslin tree.
Take your drink to the end of the bar buddy let her be now don't be a fool. I'd soon have a hot seat in Sing Sing buddy. Than to sit down by her on that stool.
The chimes of time ring out the news, another day is through. Someone slipped and fell, was that someone you?. You may have longed for added strength your courage to renew.
Take away the breath of flowers it would surely be a sin. Take the rain from April showers it's a sin. Take away the violins dear from a lovely symphony.
Tonight we'll reach the hour we set for parting. We wanted to be free, we both said so. But the closer to that hour, the more I'm hurtin'. My heart will break, it hurts so much to see you go.
Is it really over, is this the end of the line?. Don't tell me I'm losing the love that was mine. If you're really leaving, take some part of me. So I'll always remember, how sweet love used to be.
Is this me, is it really me sittin' here crying?. Well, it shouldn't be, it just can't be me, my eyes are lying. 'Cause that's not you, it just can't be you, you wouldn't be cheatin' (cheatin').
In the misty moonlight. By the flickering firelight. Any place is all right. Long as I'm with you (long as I'm with you). . In a faraway land. On the tropic sea-sand.
On a mountain stands a mansion so fine and it looks down on this cabin of mine. I had a love and I loved her true but along came a rich man and loved her to.
I come to the garden alone. While the dew is still on the roses. And the voice I hear, falling on my ear. The Son of God discloses. . And He walks with me.
Count the raindrops in a rainstorm count the leaves upon a tree. Count the stars up in the heavens count the fish down in the sea. Put them all together and here's what you would find.
I'll tell you a story of a love and his flame you've read about him he's Ichabot Crane. He went a courtin' one night on his horse and Sleepy Hollow they both had to cross.
My hands reach out to touch someone but they know she's not there. My memory keeps running back to one who used to care. My heart has lost the will to live my lips the will to smile.
I've lived a lot in my time (I've lived a lot in my time). I once had a mansion and lived in my glory but now I'm down to my last dime. I had a sweetheart but I was unfaithful oh I've lived a lot in my time.
[Sang]. I'm waiting for ships that never come in.. I wonder where they can be?. . [Spoken]. Life is only a game of poker. And happiness is the partner.
You look lovelier tonight than I remember. I'm so glad I got to see you once again. I've enjoyed just sitting down and reminiscing. But I've enjoyed as much of this as I can stand.
I'm hurtin' inside, where it doesn't show. I'm hurtin' inside but you'll never know. I'm still in love with you, though you no longer love me. And I would never ever want your pity, you see.
I'd walk by the same spot where we walked that night. I remembered your kisses and tears dimmed my sight. I'm glad you're better I'm glad you're better.
Yeah I'm gonna change everything that holds a memory of you, oh yeah. I'm gonna start with the wall stick the pictures off the wall and burn 'em. Move the chairs around take the window curtains down and burn 'em.
Ja ek verlang na jou my liefling en ek droom van jou oe so blou. Ja ek dink net aan jou my liefling en my hart is'n mantel van rou. I gaze at the stars with a prayer in my heart.
