  1. Summertime

    Summertime

    Summertime and the livin’ is easy
    Fish are jumpin’, I know they are jumpin’ and the cotton is so high
    Your Daddy’s rich and your Mama is good lookin’
    So hush little baby, don’t you cry
    No need to cryin’
    One of these mornings
    One of these mornings
    You’re gonna rise up singing
    You will spread your wings
    Spread your wings
    Then you’ll take to the sky
    But till that morning
    There is nothin’ gonna harm you
    With your Daddy and your Mama keep on standin’ by
    They’re standin’ by
    But till that morning
    Until that morning
    There is nothin’ gonna harm you
    With your Daddy and your Mama keep on standin’ by
    With your Daddy and your Mama keep on standin’ by
    Summertime, summertime, summertime, summertime

  2. Blame It On My Youth

    Blame It On My Youth

    If I expected love, when first we kissed, blame it on my youth
    If only just for you, I did exist, blame it on my youth
    I believed in everything
    Like a child of three
    You meant more than anything
    All the world to me
    If you were on my mind, all night and day, blame it on my youth
    If I forgot to eat, and sleep and pray, blame it on my youth
    If I cried a little bit, when first I learned the truth
    Don’t blame it on my heart, blame it on my youth

  3. The Very Thought Of You

    The Very Thought Of You

    The very thought of you
    And I forget to do
    The little ordinary things that everyone ought to do
    I’m living in a kind of daydream
    I’m happy as a king
    And foolish though it may seem
    To me that’s everything
    The mere idea of you
    The longing here for you
    You’ll never know how slow the moments go
    Till I’m near to you
    I see your face in every flower
    Your eyes in stars above
    It’s just the thought of you
    The very thought of you
    My love
    I’m living in a kind of daydream
    I’m happy as a king
    And foolish though it may seem
    To me that’s everything
    The mere idea of you (the mere idea of you)
    The longing here for you (The longing here for you)
    You’ll never know how slow the moments go
    Till I’m near to you
    I see your face in every flower
    Your eyes in stars above
    It’s just the thought of you
    The very thought of you
    My love
    The mere idea of you
    The longing here for you
    It’s just the thought of you
    The very thought of you
    My love

  4. The Shadow Of Your Smile

    The Shadow Of Your Smile

    The shadow of your smile
    When you are gone
    Will color all my dreams
    And light the dawn
    Look into my eyes, my love, and see
    All the lovely things you are to me
    Our wistful little star
    It was far, too high
    A teardrop kissed your lips
    And so did I
    Now when I remember spring
    All the joy that love can bring
    I will be remembering
    The shadow of your smile
    Your lovely smile
    Now when I remember spring
    All the joy that love can bring
    I will be remembering
    The shadow of your smile
    Oh, the shadow of your smile

  5. Cry Me A River

    Cry Me A River

    Now you say you’re lonely
    You cry the long night through
    Well, you can cry me a river
    Cry me a river
    I cried a river over you
    Now you say you’re sorry
    For being so untrue
    Well, you can cry me a river
    Cry me a river
    I cried a river over you
    You drove me, nearly drove me, out of my head
    While you never shed a tear
    Remember, I remember, all that you said?
    Told me love was too plebeian
    Told me you were through with me and
    Now you say you love me
    Well, just to prove you do
    Come on and cry me a river
    Cry me a river
    I cried a river over you
    Now you say you love me
    Well, just to prove you do
    Come on and cry me a river
    Cry me a river
    I cried a river over you
    I cried a river over you
    I cried a river…over you…
    Na na na …

  6. Nature Boy

    Nature Boy

    There was a boy, a very strange enchanted boy
    They say he wandered very far, very far, over land and sea
    A little shy and sad of eye, but very wise was he
    And then one day, a magic day he passed my way
    And while we spoke of many things, fools and kings
    This he said to me: “The greatest thing you’ll ever learn
    Is just to love and be loved in return”
    “The greatest thing you’ll ever learn
    Is just to love and be loved in return”

  7. Who Will Buy?

    Who Will Buy?

    Who will buy this wonderful morning
    Such a sky you never did see
    Who will tie it up with a ribbon
    And put it in a box for me
    Who will buy this wonderful feeling
    I’m so high I swear I could fly
    What a sky
    A heavenly ceiling
    Inviting you to come and buy
    So I could see it at my leisure
    Whenever things go wrong
    And I would keep it as a treasure
    To last my whole life long
    Who will buy this wonderful feeling
    I’m so high I swear I could fly
    Me oh my I don’t want to lose it
    So what am I to do
    To keep this sky so blue
    There must be someone who will buy
    Who will buy this wonderful feeling
    I’m so high I swear I could fly
    Me oh my I don’t want to lose it
    So what am I to do
    To keep this sky so blue
    There must be someone who will buy
    Ohhh, yeah yeah yeah
    Who will buy
    Ooh, ooooh

  8. Come Rain Or Come Shine

    Come Rain Or Come Shine

    I’m gonna love you, like nobody’s loved you
    Come rain or come shine
    High as a mountain and deep as a river
    Come rain or come shine
    I guess when you met me
    It was just one of those things
    But don’t ever bet me
    Cause I’m gonna be true if you let me
    You’re gonna love me, like nobody’s loved me
    Rain or shine
    Happy together, unhappy together
    And won’t it be fine
    Days may be cloudy or sunny
    We’re in and out of the money
    I’m with you always
    I’m with you rain or shine
    You’re gonna love me, like nobody’s loved me
    Come rain or come shine
    Happy together, unhappy together
    And won’t it be fine
    Days may be cloudy or sunny
    We’re in and out of the money
    But I’m with you always
    I’m with you, I’m with you rain or shine

  9. Our Love Is Here To Stay

    Our Love Is Here To Stay

    It’s very clear
    Our love is here to stay;
    Not for a year
    But ever and a day.
    Oh, the radio and the telephone and the movies that we know
    May just be passing fancies,
    And in time may go.
    But, oh my dear,
    Our love is here to stay;
    Together we’re going a long, long way.
    In time the Rockies may crumble, Gibraltar may tumble,
    They’re only made of clay,
    But our love is here to stay.
    But, oh my dear,
    Our love is here to stay;
    Together we’re going a long, long way.
    In time the Rockies may crumble, Gibraltar may tumble,
    They’re only made of clay,
    But our love is here
    But our love is here
    To stay.

  10. In The Still Of The Night

    In The Still Of The Night

    In the still of the night
    As I gaze out of my window
    At the moon in its flight
    My thoughts all stray, stray to you
    In the still of the night
    While the world lies in slumber
    Oh the times without number
    Darling when I say to you
    Do you love me
    As I love you
    Are you my life to be
    That dream come true
    Or will this dream of mine
    Fade out of sight
    Like the moon glowing dim
    On the rim of the hill
    In the chill, in the still of the night
    Do you love me
    As I love you
    Are you my life to be
    That dream come true
    Or will this dream of mine
    Fade out of sight
    Like the moon glowing dim
    On the rim of the hill
    In the chill, in the still of the night
    Of the night
    Of the night

  11. Since I Fell For You

    Since I Fell For You

    When you just give love
    And never get love
    You’d better let love depart
    I know it’s so
    And yet I know
    I can’t get you out of my heart
    You may leave my happy home
    You took my love and now you’re gone
    Since I fell for you
    Love brings such misery and pain
    I know I’ll never be the same
    Since I fell for you
    Well, it’s too bad
    And it’s too sad
    But I’m in love with you
    First you love me
    Then you snub me
    But what can I do?
    I’m still in love with you
    I, I guess I’ll never see the light
    I get the blues most every night
    Since I fell for you
    Since I fell for you…
    I, I guess I’ll never see the light
    I get the blues most every night
    Since I fell for you
    I get the blues most every night
    Since I fell for you

  12. Danny Boy

    Danny Boy

    Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
    From glen to glen and down the mountain side
    The summer’s gone, and all the roses falling
    It’s you, It’s you must go and I must bide
    But come ye back when summer’s in the meadow
    Or when the valley’s hushed and white with snow
    Cause I’ll be here in sunshine, or in shadow
    Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so
