"Stranger In Paradise"
(feat. Andrea Bocelli)

Take my hand,
I'm a stranger in Paradise
All lost in a wonderland
A stranger in paradise
If I stand starry eyed,
That's a danger in Paradise
Mortals who stand beside
An angels like us

I saw her face
And I ascended
Out of the common place
Into the rarest
Somewhere in space
I hang suspended
Until I know
There's a chance that she cares

Won't you answer this fervent prayer?
Of a stranger in paradise
Don't send me in dark despair
From all that I hunger for
But open your angel's arms
To this strangers in paradise
And tell us that we need be
Strangers no more

I saw her face
And I ascended
Out of the common place
Into the rarest
Somewhere in space
I hang suspended
Until I know
There's a chance that she cares

Won't you answer this fervent prayer?
Of a stranger in paradise
Don't send me in dark despair
From all that I hunger for
But open your angel's arms
To this strangers in paradise
And tell us that we need be
Strangers no more

"Street Of Dreams"

Love laughs at a king
Kings don't mean a thing
On the street of dreams

Dreams broken in two
Can be made like new
On the street of dreams

Gold, silver and gold
All you can hold
Is in the moonbeam

Poor, no one is poor
As long as love is sure
On the street of dreams

"Suddenly"

Suddenly the night was very still
Suddenly your touch became a thrill
And suddenly I knew I was part of you
And yet I told my heart, “Be still, be still”
Then suddenly your lips were kissing mine
Suddenly my world became divine
For when I looked around
Then I knew I’d found
Eternity with you so suddenly

Suddenly your lips were kissing mine
Suddenly my world became divine
For when I looked around
Then I knew I’d found
Eternity with you so suddenly

"Sweet Georgie Fame"

Words and music are all that I need
I will follow wherever they lead
And I'm finding more fun in the game
A groovy boy has brought us joy, sweet Georgie Fame
Oh, I heard him one night quite by chance
Now wherever I'm walking, I dance
And London is not quite the same
'cause when it sings, the city swings, sweet Georgie Fame

London Bridge is falling down
Pop songs I hear with suspicion
But now at last I'm glad to meet a sweet lovin' real good musician
Oh, from Broadway to Festival Hall
I have listened and I've heard them all
And they say there's a few million dames
That are impressed, their ears are blessed with Georgie Fame

So stay a while, you'll see 'em smile, you won't complain
His hands and feet make music sweet, you'll miss your train
Your goose is cooked, you're gettin' hooked
On Georgie Fame!!!

"Sweet Lorraine"

I've just found joy
I'm as happy as a baby boy
With another brand new choo-choo toy
When I'm with my sweet Lorraine.

A pair of eyes
That are bluer than the summer skies
When you see her you will realize,
Why I love my sweet Lorraine.

Now when it's raining I don’t miss the sun
Cuz its in my baby’s smile
And to think that I'm the lucky one,
Who will lead her down the aisle

Each night I pray
That nobody steals her heart away
I can't wait until that lucky day
When I marry sweet Lorraine.

"Swinging On A Star"

Would you like to swing on a star
Carry moonbeams home in a jar
And be better off than you are
Or would you rather be a mule
A mule is an animal with long funny ears
He kicks up at anything he hears
His back is brawny - and his brain is weak
He's just plain stupid with a - stubborn streak
And by the way, if you hate to go to school
You may grow up to be a mule
Would you like to swing on a star
Carry moonbeams home in a jar
And be better off than you are
Or would you rather be a pig
A pig is an animal with dirt on his face
His shoes are a terrible disgrace
He ain't got no manners when he eats his food
He's fat and lazy - and extremely rude
But if you don't care a feather or a fig
You may grow up to be a pig
Would you like to swing on a star
Carry moonbeams home in a jar
And be better off than you are
Or would you rather be a fish
A fish won't do anything but swim in a brook
He cant write his name or read a book
And to fool the people is his only thought
Though he slippery - he still gets caught
But then if that sort of life is what you wish
You may grow up to be a fish
And all the monkeys aren't in a zoo
Every day you meet quite a few
So you see it's all up to you
You can be better than you are
You could be swinging on a star

"Take The Moment"

Take the moment,
Let it happen,
Hug the moment,
Make it last.
Hold the feeling
For the moment
Or the moment
Will have passed.
All the noises
Buzzing in your head,
Warning you to wait,
What for?
Don't listen!
Let it happen,
Take the moment,
Make the moment
Many moments more!
Make for us a thousand more!

"Taking A Chance On Love"

Here I go again
I hear the trumpets blow again
I'm all aglow again
Taking a chance on love

Here I slide again
About to take the ride again
I'm starry eyed again
Taking a chance on love

Now I thought the cards were a frame up
And I never would try
But now I'm taking the game up
And the Ace of Hearts is high

Things are mending now
I see a rainbow blending now
We'll have a happy ending now
We're taking a chance

I hear the trumpets blow again
And we're taking a chance
About to take that ride again
Taking a chance

Now I walk around with a horseshoe
And in clover I lie
Mister Rabbit, Mister Rabbit of course you
Better kiss that foot good-bye

I'm on the ball again
Riding for a fall again
I'm gonna give my all again
Taking a chance
I'm taking a chance
I'm taking a chance
On love

"Tangerine"

South American stories tell of a girl who is quite a dream
The beauty of her race.
Though you'll doubt all the stories and think the tales are just a bit extreme
Wait till you see her face
Ooh, Tangerine, she is all they claim
With her eyes of night, and lips as bright as flame
Tangerine, when she dances by,
Senoritas stare and cabolleros sigh
And I've seen toasts to Tangerine
Raised in every bar, across the Argentine
Yes, she's got them all on the run
But her heart belongs to just one
Her heart belongs to Tangerine

"Tea For Two"

I’m discontented with homes that are rented
So I have invented my own
Darling, this place is a lover’s oasis
Where life’s weary chase is unknown
Far from the cry of the city
Where flowers pretty caress the streams
Cozy to hide in
To live side by side
Don’t let it abide in my dreams

Picture you upon my knee
Just tea for two and two for tea
Just me for you and you for me
Alone

Nobody near us to see us or hear us
No friends or relations
On weekend vacations
We won’t have it known, dear
That we own a telephone, dear

Day will break and you’ll awake
And start to bake a sugar cake
For me to take for all the boys to see

We will raise a family
A boy for you, a girl for me
Can’t you see how happy we would be

"Tell Her It's Snowing"

Tell her that it’s snowing
Like a year ago
Ask her if she’s happy
Say I’d like to know

Tell her that it’s snowing
Say I feel the same
Ask her if the children
Ever say my name

Ask her, did the baby
Take a step or two
Don’t say I’m unhappy
Even though it’s true

Ask her if the children
Love the falling snow
Tell her, yes it’s snowing
Like a year ago

Say they’ve not forgotten
Games we used to play
Do they often ask you
Why I went away

Tell her that the seasons
Are made into one
And for many reasons
I remained alone

Don’t say I’m unhappy
Even if she wants to know
Tell her that it’s snowing
Like a year ago

"Tender Is The Night"

Tender is the night
So tender is the night
There's no one in the world
Except the two of us

Should tomorrow
Find us disenchanted
We have shared a love
That few have known

Summers by the sea
A sailboat in Capri
These memories shall be
Our very own

Even though our dreams may vanish
With the morning light
We loved once in splendour
How tender, how tender the night

Even though our dreams may vanish
With the morning light
We loved once in splendour
How tender, how tender the night

"Tenderly"

You took my lips you took my love
So tenderly
The evening breeze caress the trees
Tenderly
The trembling tress embrace the breeze
Tenderly
Then you and i came wandering by
And lost in a sigh were we
The shore was kissed by sea and mist
Tenderly
I can't forget how two hearts met
Breathlessly
Your arms opened wide
And closed me in inside
You took my lips you took my love
So tenderly
Then you and i came wandering by
And lost in a sigh were we
The shore was kissed by sea and mist
Tenderly
I can't forget when two hearts met breathlessly
Your arms opened wide and closed me inside
You took my lips you took my love
So tenderly

"That Night"

The snow was on the hill
The fields were soft and white
We touched and time stood still
On that hill, on that night

Your glances said, “Begin,
Begin this strange affair”
Your glances begged, “Begin”
And we loved sweetly then

Time will pass
Memories fade
Of a bold, bizarre charade
Of a kiss in the night
Out of time and sight

The snow was on the hill
The fields were soft and white
We touched and time stood still
On that hill, on that night

"That Ole Devil Called Love"

Someone’s whisperin’ in my ear
I say, “No, no, go away.”
But he don’t hear
He follows me around
Builds me up, tears me down
Try my best to shake him
But he just hangs around

It's that ole devil called love again
Gets behind me and keeps giving me that shove again
Putting rain in my eyes
Tears in my dreams
And rocks in my heart

It's that sly sun-of-a-gun again
He keeps telling me that I'm the lucky one again
But I still have that rain
I still have those tears
And those rocks in my heart

Suppose I didn't stay and ran away
Wouldn't play
That devil-what a potion he would brew
He'd follow me around
Build me up, tear me down
I'd be so bewildered
I wouldn't know what to do

Might as well give up that fight again
I know darn well he'll convince me
That he's right again
When he sings that siren song
I just gotta tag along
With that ole devil called love

"That's Entertainment!"

The clown with his pants falling down or the dance that's a dream of romance
Or the scene where the villain is mean.
That's entertainment!

The lights on the lady in tights or the bride with a guy on the side,
Or the ball where she gives him her all.
That's entertainment!

The plot can be hot, simply teeming with sex,
a gay divorcee who is after her "ex".
It can be Oedipus Rex, where a chap kills his father
and causes a lot of bother.
The clerk who is thrown out of work by the boss,
Who is thrown for a loss by the skirt who is doing him dirt.

"The Bare Necessities"

Look for the bare necessities
The simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife
I mean the bare necessities
Old Mother Nature's recipes
That bring the bare necessities of life

Wherever I wander, wherever I roam
I couldn't be fonder of my big home
The bees are buzzin' in the tree
To make some honey just for me
When you look under the rocks and plants
And take a glance at the fancy ants
Then maybe try a few

The bare necessities of life will come to you
They'll come to you!

Look for the bare necessities
The simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife
I mean the bare necessities
That's why a bear can rest at ease
With just the bare necessities of life

Now when you pick a paw-paw
Or a prickly pear
And you prick a raw paw
Next time beware
Don't pick the prickly pear by the paw
When you pick a pear
Try to use the claw
But you don't need to use the claw
When you pick a pear of the big paw-paw
Have I given you a clue ?

The bare necessities of life will come to you
They'll come to you!

Oh, man, this is really ...
So just try and relax, yeah cool it
Fall apart in my backyard
'Cause let me tell you something little britches
If you act like that bee acts, uh uh
You're working too hard

And don't spend your time lookin' around
For something you want that can't be found
When you find out you can live without it
And go along not thinkin' about it
I'll tell you something true

The bare necessities of life will come to you
Look for the bare necessities
The simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife
(yeah, man!)
I mean the bare necessities
That's why a bear can rest at ease
With just the bare necessities of life
(yeah!)
With just the bare necessities of life
(yeah, man!)

"The Beat Of My Heart"

Listen to the beat
Listen to the beat
Listen to the beat

Listen to the beat
Listen to the beat
Listen to the beat

Trampin' feet
With traffic meet
And fill the street
With boomin' and zoomin' and rhythm
With the merrily beat of my heart

Birds that sing
and bells that ring
their voices bring
the rollicky' frollicky' tempo
of the dancing beat of my heart

It all began
The day you smiled at me
In such a charming way

Need I further say:
Because of you
The world is filled with music

Rumblin' trains and roarin' planes
Their noise contains
The clickety clackety drummin'
From the hummin' beat of my heart

[?] hours
[?] powers
thundershowers that pitter and patter
are sounding to the poundin' beat of my heart

And since you're mine
My love song needs another line
With word 'divine'

That your name will rhyme with
While I sing in time with
Every thumpin' bumpin' beat of my heart

The beat of my heart

The beat of my heart

It all began
The day you smiled at me
In such a charming way

Need I further say:
Because of you
The world is filled with music

Rumblin' trains and roarin' planes
Their noise contains
The clickety clackety drummin'
From the hummin' beat of my heart

[?] hours
[?] powers
thundershowers that pitter and patter
are sounding to the poundin' beat of my heart

And since you're mine
My love song needs another line
With word 'divine'

That your name will rhyme with
While I sing in time with
Every thumpin' bumpin' beat of my heart

Listen to the beat
Listen to the beat

"The Best Is Yet To Come"
(feat. Diana Krall)

Out of the tree of life I just picked me a plum
You came along and everything started to hum
Still it's a real good bet the best is yet to come

The best is yet to come and, babe, won't it be fine?
You think you've seen the sun but you ain't seen it shine

Wait till the warm-up's underway
Wait till our lips have met
Wait till you see that sunshine day
You ain't seen nothin' yet!

The best is yet to come and, babe, won't it be fine?
The best is yet to come, come the day you're mine

Come the day you're mine, I'm gonna teach you to fly
We're gonna taste of the wine
We're gonna drain the cup dry

Wait till your charms are right for these arms to surround
You think you've flown before but you ain't left the ground

Wait till you're locked in my embrace
Wait till I draw you near
Wait till you see that sunshine place
Ain't nothin' like it here!

The best is yet to come and, babe, won't it be fine
The best is yet to come, come the day you're mine

Out of the tree of life I just picked me a plum
You came along and everything started to hum
