Oh! Will you never let me be?Oh! Will you never set me free?The ties that bound usAre still around usTheres no escape that I can seeAnd still those little things remainThat bring me happiness or painA cigarette that bears a lipsticks tracesAn airline ticket to romantic placesAnd still my heart has wingsThese foolish things remind me of youA tinkling piano in the next apartmentThose stumbling words that told you what my heart meantA fair grounds painted swingsThese foolish things remind me of youYou came you saw you conquerd meWhen you did that to meI knew somehow this had to beThe winds of March that make my heart a dancerA telephone that rings but whos to answer?Oh how the ghost of you clings!These foolish things remind me of youFirst daffodils and long excited cablesAnd candle lights on little corner tablesAnd still my heart has wingsThese foolish things remind me of youThe park at evening when the bell has soundedThe Ile de France with all the gulls around itThe beauty that is SpringsThese foolish things remind me of youHow strange how sweet to find you stillThese things are dear to meThey seem to bring you near to meThe sigh of midnight trains in empty stationsSilk stockings thrown aside dance invitationsOh how the ghost of you clings!These foolish things remind me of youGardenia perfume lingring on a pillowWild strawbries only seven francs a kiloAnd still my heart has wingsThese foolish things remind me of youThe smile of Garbo and the scent of rosesThe waiters whistling as the last bar closesThe song that Crosby singsThese foolish things remind me of youHow strange how sweet to find you stillThese things are dear to meThey seem to bring you near to meThe scent of smouldring leaves the wail of steamersTwo lovers on the street who walk like dreamersOh how the ghost of you clings!These foolish things remind me of you

Listen to my tale of woe Its terribly sad but true All dressed up no place to go Each evening Im awfully blue. I must win some handsome guy Cant go on like this I could blossom out I know With somebody just like you. SoOh sweet and lovely lady be good Oh lady be good to me I am so awfully misunderstood So lady be good to me Oh please have some pity Im all-alone in this big city I tell you Im just a lonesome babe in the wood So lady be good to me. Oh please have some pity Im all alone in this big city I tell you Im just a lonesome babe in the wood So lady be good to me. Oh lady be good to me.

I was a stranger in the cityOut of town were the people I knewI had that feeling of self-pityWhat to do what to do what to doThe outlook was decidedly blueBut as I walked through the foggy streets aloneIt turned out to be the luckiest day Ive knownA foggy day in London townHad me low had me downI viewed the morning with much alarmBritish Museum had lost its charmHow long I wonderedCould this thing lastBut the age of miracles hadnt pastFor suddenly I saw you thereAnd through foggy London townThe sun was shining everywhereFor suddenly I saw you thereAnd through foggy London townThe sun was shining everywhereEverywhereEverywhereEverywhere

My man dont love meTreats me oh so meanMy man he dont love meTreats me awfullyHes the lowest manThat Ive ever seeHe wears high trimmed panStripes are really yellow He wears high trimmed panStripes are really yellow But when he starts in to love meHes so fine and mellowLove will make you drink and gambleMake you stay out all night long repeatLove will make you drink and gambleMake you stay out all night long repeatLove will make you do thingsThat you know is wrongBut if you treat me right babyIll stay home everydayBut if you treat me right babyIll stay home everydayBut youre so mean to me babyI know youre gonna drive me awayLove is just like the faucetIt turns off and onLove is just like the faucetIt turns off and onSometimes when you think its on babyIt has turned off and gone

The Lights Lyrics

Q: Ghost of a Chance (Eng 1 Mai 1944 New York)

I need your love so badly I love you oh so madlyBut I dont stand a ghost of a chance with you!I thought at last Id found you but other lovers surround youAnd I dont stand a ghost of a chance with you!If youd surrender just for a tender kiss or twoYou might discover that Im the lover meant for youAnd Id be true but whats the good of schemingI know I must be dreaming

Q: (Back Home Again In) Indiana

Back home again in IndianaAnd it seems that I can seeThe gleamin candlelightStill shinin brightThrough the sycamores for me.The new mown hay sends all its fragranceFrom the fields I used to roam.When I dream about the moonlight on the WabashThen I long for my Indiana home.Oh I have always been a wandererOver land and seaYet a moonbeam on the waterCasts a spell oer me;A vision fair I seeAgain I long to be;Back home again in IndianaAnd it seems that I can seeThe gleamin candlelightStill shinin brightThrough the sycamores for me.The new mown hay sends all its fragranceFrom the fields I used to roam.When I dream about the moonlight on the WabashThen I long for my Indiana homeIndiana home.

Q: Back in Your Own Backyard

We leave home expecting to find a blue birdHoping evry cloud will be silver lined.But we all return as we live wo learnThat we left our happiness behind.When they sing you Look for the Silver LiningIt is silver dollars theyre looking for.You will find my friend that the rainbows endIs somewhere around your kitchen door.The bird with feathers of blue is waiting for youBack in your own back yardYoull see your castle in Spain through your window paneBack in your own back yard.Oh you can go to the East go to the WestBut someday youll come weary at heart back where you started fromYoull find your happiness lies right under your eyesBack In Your Own Backyard.

Q: A Sailboat in the Moonlight

A sailboat in the moonlightAnd youWouldnt that be heavenA heaven just for twoA soft breeze on a June night and youWhat a perfect settingFor letting dreams come trueA chance to sail awayTo Sweetheart BayBeneath the stars that shineA chance to driftFor you to liftYour tender lips to mineSome things dearThat I long for are fewJust give me a sailboat in the moonlight and youA chance to sail awayTo Sweetheart BayBeneath the stars that shineA chance to driftFor you to liftYour tender lips to mineSome things dearThat I long for are fewJust give me a sailboat in the moonlight and you

Q: I Cant Give You Anything But Love

Gee but its tough to be broke kid.Its not a joke kid its a curse.My luck is changing its gotten from simply rotten to something worseWho knows some day I will win too. Ill begin to reach my prime.Now though I see what our end isAll I can spend is just my time.I cant give you anything but love baby.Thats the only thing Ive plenty ofbaby.Dream awhile scheme awhileWere sure to findHappiness and I guessAll those things youve always pined for.Gee Id like to see you looking swell baby.Diamond bracelets Woolworth doesnt sell baby.Till that lucky day you know darned well baby.I cant give you anything but love.Rome wasnt built in a day kid.You have to pay kid for what you get.But I am willing to wait dear Your little mate dear will not forget.You have a lifetime before you.Ill adore you come what may.Please dont be blue for the present When its so pleasant to hear you sayI cant give you anything but love baby.Thats the only thing Ive plenty ofbaby.Dream awhile scheme awhileWere sure to findHappiness and I guessAll those things youve always pined for.Gee Id like to see you looking swell baby.Diamond bracelets Woolworth doesnt sell baby.Till that lucky day you know darned well baby.I cant give you anything but love.

Q: This Years Kisses

This years crop of kissesDont seem as sweet to meThis years crop just missesWhat kisses used to beThis years new romanceDoesnt seem to have a chanceEven helped by Mr. Moon aboveThis years crop of kisses is not for meFor Im still wearin last years love
