Love don't mean much to someone like you. It's just a game or fun thing to do. And when it's over and your lover has gone,. Do you know where you stand?.
I never traveled further North than old Van Courtland Park. And never further South than the aquarium. I've seen the charm of Jersey City, but first, let me remark.
I have a feeling, it's a feeling I'm concealing. I don't know why. It's just a mental, incidental, sentimental. Alibi. But I adore you, so strong for you.
Say, it's only a paper moon. Sailing over a cardboard sea. But it wouldn't be make-believe. If you believed in me. . Yes, it's only a canvas sky. Hanging over a muslin tree.
Many a tear has to fall. But it's all in the game. All in the wonderful game. That we know as love. . You have words with him. And your future's looking dim.
Time.... I've been passing time watching trains go by. All of my life,. Lying on the sand watching sea birds fly. Wishing there would be. Someone waiting home for me.
Here it is again, Monday mornin'. And I've really got the blues. But it don't much matter, I've got no need to smile. And I don't think I will for quite a while.
The night bird is dyin' and baby, there's no denyin'. Too far gone to escape, to pull myself free. Now, I'm tryin', tryin' hard to get back. How I'm dyin', tryin' hard to get back.
What if I wrote you a song,. Some music from me to you?. What if I spelled you some words?. Would it ever mean much to you?. . If red and yellow flowers bloomed in the snow.
I don't wanna kiss or hold your hand. If it's funny, try and understand. In this world, there's nothin' I would rather do. 'Cause I'm happy just to dance, happy just to dance with you.
Say goodbye?. Why, I can barely say goodnight. If I can hardly take my eyes from yours. How far can I go?. . Walk away?. The thought would never cross my mind.
And when I think of how. We might turn out to be,. Then something melts inside of me. . I wonder, I wonder,. I wonder what you're like. . Well, I wonder what you're like.
Day after day I must face a world of strangers. Where I don't belong, I'm not that strong. It's nice to know that there's someone I can turn to. Who will always care, you're always there.
Who knows how long I've loved you?. You know, I love you still. Will I wait a lonely lifetime?. If you want me to, I will. . For if I ever saw you. I didn't catch your name.
I remember sky. It was blue as ink. Or at least, I think. I remember sky. . I remember snow. Soft as feathers,. Sharp as thumbtacks,. Coming down like lint.
I like you, you're nice. Seems like I've known you for years. But we met just an hour ago. I'd never know we're such old friends. And I like you a lot.
I got rhythm. I got music. I got my man. Who could ask for anything more?. I got daisies. In green pastures. I got my man. Who could ask for anything more?.
I'm a happy man. I made my choice in life. I chose to settle down. I chose to take a wife. . And I take pleasure in my quiet. Hearth and happy home. I never gave my heart.
How do you keep the music playing?. How do you make it last?. How do you keep the song from fading too fast?. How do you lose yourself to someone. And never lose your way?.
