Close To You lyrics - Frank Sinatra

Close to you, I will always stay.

Close to you, though you're far away.

You'll always be near as though you were here by my side.

No matter where - in my dreams I'll find you there

Close to me, sharing you're caress.

Can't you see you're my happiness?

Wherever you go, my heart will go, too.

What can I do?

It only wants to be close to you.

[Musical interlude]

Wherever you go, my heart will go, too.

What can I do?

It only wants to be close to you.

P.S. I Love You lyrics - Frank Sinatra

What is there to write? What is there to say?

Same things happen everyday, not a thing to write, not a thing to say,

So I take my pen in hand and start the same old way.

Dear, I thought I'd drop a line, the weather's cool, the folks are fine,

I'm in bed each night at nine, P. S. I love you.

Yesterday we had some rain, but all in all, I can't complain,

Was it dusty on the train, P. S. I love you.

Write to the Browns just as soon as you're able,

They came around to call, and I burned a hole in the dining room table,

And let me see, I guess that's all.

Nothing else for me to say, and so I'll close but by the way,

Everybody's thinking of you, P. S. I love you.

I do my best to obey all your wishes, I put a sign up "Think"

But I gotta buy us a new set of dishes, or wash the ones that are piled in the sink.

Nothing else to tell you dear, except each day seems like a year,

Every night I'm dreaming of you, P. S. I love you.

Love Locked Out lyrics - Frank Sinatra

Love locked out in all the cold and rain

Love locked out may never come again

Love locked out and weeping bitter tears

But no one ever hears love calling

Though we need the precious gift it brings

We don't heed the song of love it sings

On the door, love beats its tiny wings

Just love locked out

A world without love is a world without life

A sad world full of gloom

So please make a place there for love in your heart

It doesn't need much room

Love is well worth the waiting for

When it comes knocking at your door

Fling it wide, for love locked out will come

No more, no more

Everything Happens To Me lyrics - Frank Sinatra

Black cats creep across my path until I'm almost mad

I must have roused the Devil's wrath 'cause all my luck is bad

I make a date for golf and you can bet your life it rains

I try to give a party but the guy upstairs complains

I guess I'll go through life just catchin' colds and missin' trains

Everything happens to me

I never miss a thing, I've had the measles and the mumps

And every time I play an ace, my partner always trumps

I guess I'm just a fool who never looks before he jumps

Everything happens to me

At first my heart thought you could break this jinx for me

That love would turn the trick to end despair

But now I just can't fool this head that thinks for me

So I've mortgaged all my castles in the air

I've telegraphed and phoned, sent an Air Mail Special, too

You answer was "Goodbye", there was even postage due

I fell in love just once and then it had to be with you

Everything happens to me

I've never drawn a sweepstake or a bank night at a show

I thought perhaps this time I'd won but Lady Luck said "No"

And though it breaks my heart I'm not surprised to see you go

Everything happens to me

Everything happens to me

It's Easy To Remember lyrics - Frank Sinatra

Your sweet expression, the smile you gave me, the way you looked when we met,

It's easy to remember, but so hard to forget.

I hear you whisper, I'll always love you, I know it's over and yet,

It's easy to remember, but so hard to forget.

So I must dream to have your hands caress me, fingers press me tight,

I'd rather dream than have that lonely feeling stealing through the night.

Each little moment is clear before me, and though it brings me regret,

It's easy to remember but so hard to forget.

Don't Like Goodbyes lyrics - Frank Sinatra

Don't like good-byes, tears or sighs

I'm not too good at leaving time

I've got no taste for grieving time

No, no, not me

You've been my near ones, always my dear ones

I never thought that I would find

Another love, a different kind

But it came to be

Well if you think I'm telling you lies

Go try your luck and look into her eyes

But remember, you must remember she's mine

And my world overhead has a clear new shine

Don't want to leave you

Sorry to grieve you

It's traveling time, and I must move on

Found the girl (gal) to lean upon

And if I could arrange it

Oh would I care to chance it - not me

With Every Breath I Take lyrics - Frank Sinatra

I think of you with every breath I take,

With every breeze that wanders by.

And your name is a song

I'll remember the long years through.

I breathe your name with every breath I take,

And every breath becomes a sigh.

Not a sigh of despair

But a sigh that I'll always care.

Even now as I walk through the garden

Seems that I hear love say:

"Some day, some way."

And when I sleep you keep my heart awake,

And when I wake from dreams divine

Every breath that I take

Blame It On My Youth lyrics - Frank Sinatra

You were my adored one,

Then you became the bored one,

And I was like a toy that brought you joy one day,

A broken toy that you preferred to throw away.

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 both night and day,

Blame it on my youth.

If I forgot to eat and sleep and pray,

Blame it on my youth.

And if I cried a little bit when first I learned the truth,

Don't blame it on my heart,

Blame it on my youth.

It Could Happen To You lyrics - Frank Sinatra

Hide your heart from sight, lock your dreams at night

It could happen to you

Don't count stars or you might stumble

Someone drops a sigh and down you tumble

Keep an eye on spring, run when church bells ring

It could happen to you

All I did was wonder how your arms would be

And it happened to me

Keep an eye on spring, run when church bells ring

It could happen to you

All I did was wonder how your arms would be

And it happened to me

I've Had My Moments lyrics - Frank Sinatra

I've had my moments, I will confess,

My fleeting moments of tenderness,

I sang of true love, I've played guitars,

Then found a new love 'neath tropical stars.

This time's the last time, this time it's new,

Love as a pastime for me is through,

I've had my moments, my big bad moments,

But now my one big moment is you.

I sang of true love, and I've played guitars,

Then found a new love 'neath tropical stars.

This time's the last time, this time it's new,

Love as a pastime for me is through,

I've had my moments, my big bad moments,

But now my one big moment is you.

I Couldn't Sleep A Wink Last Night lyrics - Frank Sinatra

I couldn't sleep a wink last night

Because we had that silly fight

I thought my heart would break the whole night through,

I knew that you'd be sorry,

And I am sorry too,

I didn't have my favorite dream,

The one in which I hold you tight,

I had to call you up this morning

To see if everything was still all right,

Yes, I had to call you up this morning

'Cause I couldn't sleep a wink last night,

I didn't have my favorite dream,

The one in which I hold you tight

I had to call you up this morning

To see if everything was still all right,

Yes, I had to call you up this morning

Cause I couldn't Sleep A Wink Last Night

The End Of A Love Affair lyrics - Frank Sinatra

So I walked a little too fast, and I drive a little too fast,

And I'm reckless it's true, but what else can you do

At the end of a love affair?

So I talk a little too much, and I laugh a little too much,

And my voice is too loud when I'm out in a crowd,

So that people are apt to stare.

Do they know, do they care,

That it's only that I'm lonely, and low as can be,

And the smile on my face isn't really a smile at all.

So I smoke a little too much, and I drink a little too much,

And the tunes I request are not always the best,

But the ones where the trumpets blare,

So I go at a maddening pace,

And I pretend that it's taking her place,

But what else can you do at the end of a love affair?

So I smoke a little too much, and I drink a little too much,

And the tunes I request are not always the best,

But the ones where the trumpets blare,

So I go at a maddening pace,

And I pretend that it's taking her place,

But what else can you do at the end of a love affair?

If It's The Last Thing I Do lyrics - Frank Sinatra

If it's the last thing I do, I'll make you mine

Darling the first thing is you, in my design

Just like the stars guard the moon above me

Thats just how I'll guard our love, so love me

Please love me

If it's the last thing I do, I'll take your hand

And though I won't say a word, you'll understand

I'll build a dream just for two

And then I'll make it come true

If it's the very last thing I do

Just like the stars guard the moon above me

Thats just how I'll guard our love, so love me

Please love me

If it's the last thing I do, I'll take your hand

And though I won't say a word, you'll understand

I'll build a dream just for two

And then I'll make it come true

If it's the very last thing I do

There's A Flaw In My Flue lyrics - Frank Sinatra

I used to sit by my fireplace

And dream about you.

But now that won't do.

There's a flaw in my flue

Your lovely face in my firplace

Was all that I saw

But now it won't draw

My flue has a flaw

From every beautiful ember a memory arose

Now I try to remember and smoke gets in my nose

It's not as sweet as the unit-heat

To dream about you

So darling, adieu

There's a flaw in my flue.

Wait Till You See Her lyrics - Frank Sinatra

Wait till you see her, see how she looks, wait till you hear her laugh,

Painters of painting, drivers of gloom never could tell the height,

Wait till you feel the warmth of her glance, pensive and sweet and wise,

All of it lovely, all of it thrilling, I'll never be willing to free her,

When you see her, you won't believe your eyes.

Songs For Swingin' Lovers! (1956)

You Make Me Feel So Young lyrics - Frank Sinatra

You make me feel so young

You make me feel so spring has sprung

And every time I see you grin

I'm such a happy individual

The moment that you speak

I wanna go play hide-and-seek

I wanna go and bounce the moon

Just like a toy balloon

You and I are just like a couple of tots

Running across the meadow

Picking up lots of forget-me-nots

You make me feel so young

You make me feel there are songs to be sung

Bells to be rung and a wonderful fling to be flung

And even when I'm old and gray

I'm gonna feel the way I do today

'Cause you make me feel so young

You make me feel so young

You make me feel so spring has sprung

And every time I see you grin

I'm such a happy individual

The moment that you speak

I wanna go play hide-and-seek

I wanna go and bounce the moon

Just like a toy balloon

You and I are just like a couple of tots

Running across the meadow

Picking up lots of forget-me-nots

You make me feel so young

You make me feel there are songs to be sung

And bells to be rung

And a wonderful fling to be flung

And even when I'm old and gray

I'm gonna feel the way I do today

'Cause you, you make me feel so young

You make me feel so young [x2]

Ooh, you make me feel so young

It Happened In Monterey lyrics - Frank Sinatra

It happened in Monterey, a long time ago

I met her in Monterey, in old Mexico

Stars and steel guitars and luscious lips, as red as wine

Broke somebody's heart and I'm afraid that it was mine

It happened in Monterey without thinking twice

I left her and threw away the key to paradise

My indiscreet heart longs for the sweetheart

That I left in old Monterey

Ah, it happened in Monterey, a long time ago

I met her in Monterey, in old Mexico

Stars, guitars, lips red as wine

Broke somebody's heart and I fear that it was mine

It happened in Monterey and without thinking twice

I left her and I threw away the key to paradise

My indiscreet heart, how it longs for that sweetheart

That I left in old Monterey

You're Getting To Be A Habit With Me lyrics - Frank Sinatra

Every kiss, every hug seems to act just like a drug

You're getting to be a habit with me

Let me stay in your arms I'm addicted to your charms

You're getting to be a habit with me

I used to think your love was something

That I could take or leave alone

But now I couldn't do without my supply

I need you for my own

Oh, I can't break away I must have you everyday

As regularly as coffee or tea

You've got me in your clutches and I can't get free

You're getting to be a habit with me

Oh, I can't break away I must have you everyday

As regularly as coffee or tea

You've got me in your clutches and I can't get free

You're getting to be a habit with me

You're getting to be a habit with me

You Brought A New Kind Of Love To Me lyrics - You Brought A New Kind Of Love To Me

If the nightingales could sing like you

They'd sing much sweeter than they do

For you brought a new kind of love to me

And if the sandman brought me dreams of you

I'd want to sleep my whole life through

You brought a new love to me

I know that I'm the slave, you're the queen

Still you can understand that underneath it all

You're a maid and I am only a man

I would work and slave the whole day through

If I could hurry home to you

You brought a new kind of love to me

Too Marvelous For Words lyrics - Frank Sinatra

You're just too marvelous, too marvelous for words

Like "glorious", "glamorous" and that old standby "amorous".

It's all too wonderful, I'll never find the words

That say enough, tell enough, I mean they just aren't swell enough.

You're much too much, and just too "very, very"

To ever be in Webster's Dictionary.

And so I'm borrowing a love song from the birds

To tell you that you're marvelous - too marvelous for words.

[Musical interlude]

You're much - you're too much - and just too "very, very"

To ever be, to ever be in Webster's Dictionary.

And so I'm borrowing a love song from the birds

To tell you that you're marvelous;

Tell you that you're marvelous;

Tell you that you're marvelous - too marvelous for words

Old Devil Moon lyrics - Frank Sinatra

I look at you and suddenly, something in your eyes I see;

Soon begins bewitching me.

It's that old devil moon that you stole from the skies.

It's that old devil moon in your eyes.

You and you glance make this romance too hot to handle.

Stars in the night, blazing their light can't hold a candle;

To your razzle-dazzle.

You've got me flyin' high and wide, on a magic carpet ride;

Full of butterflies inside.

Wanna cry, wanna croon, wanna laugh like a loon.

It's that old devil moon in your eyes.

Just when I think, I'm free as a dove.

Old devil moon, deep in your eyes, blinds me with love.

Pennies From Heaven lyrics - Frank Sinatra

Every time it rains, it rains pennies from heaven

Don't you know each cloud contains pennies from heaven?

You'll find your fortune's fallin' all over the town

Be sure that your umbrella is upside down

Trade them for a package of sunshine and flowers

If you want the things you love, you must have showers

So, when you hear it thunder, don't run under a tree

There'll be pennies from heaven for you and me

[lengthy instrumental-sax solo and then brass]

Every time, every time it rains, it's gonna rain pennies from heaven

Don't you know every cloud contains lots of pennies from heaven

You'll find your fortune's fallin', baby, all over the town

Be sure, be sure that your umbrella is upside down

Trade them for a package of sunshine and flowers

If you want the things you love, you've got to have showers

So, when you hear it thunder, don't run under a tree

There'll be pennies from heaven for you and me

Love Is Here To Stay lyrics - Frank Sinatra

It's very clear

Our love is here to stay

Not for a year, but ever and a day

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

I've Got You Under My Skin lyrics - Frank Sinatra

I've got you under my skin.

I've got you deep in the heart of me.

So deep in my heart that you're really a part of me.

I've got you under my skin.

I'd tried so not to give in.

I said to myself: this affair never will go so well.

But why should I try to resist when, baby, I know so well

I've got you under my skin?

I'd sacrifice anything come what might

For the sake of havin' you near

In spite of a warnin' voice that comes in the night

And repeats, repeats in my ear:

Don't you know, little fool, you never can win?

Use your mentality, wake up to reality.

But each time that I do just the thought of you

Makes me stop before I begin

'Cause I've got you under my skin.

[Musical interlude]

I would sacrifice anything come what might

For the sake of havin' you near

In spite of the warning voice that comes in the night

And repeats - how it yells in my ear:

Don't you know, little fool, you never can win?

Why not use your mentality - step up, wake up to reality?

But each time I do just the thought of you

Makes me stop just before I begin

'Cause I've got you under my skin.

Yes, I've got you under my skin.

I Thought About You lyrics - Frank Sinatra

I took a trip on a train

And I thought about you

I passed a shadowy lane

And I thought about you

Two or three cars parked under the stars

Winding stream

Moon shining down on some little town

And with each beam, the same old dream

And every stop that we made

Oh, I thought about you

And when I pulled down the shade

Then I really felt blue

I peeped through the crack

Looked at the track

The one going back to you

And what did I do? I thought about you

There were two or three cars parked under the stars

Winding stream

Moon shining down on some little town

And with each beam, the same old dream

And then I peeped through the crack

And I looked at the track

The one going back to you

And what did I do? I thought about you

We'll Be Together Again lyrics - Frank Sinatra

No tears, no fears,

Remember there's always tomorrow

So what if we have to part,

We'll be together again

Your kiss, your smile,

Are memories I'll treasure forever

So try thinking with your heart,

We'll be together again

Times when I know you'll be lonesome,

Times when I know you'll be sad

Don't let temptation surround you,

Don't let the blues make you bad

Someday, someway,

We both have a lifetime before us

For parting is not good-bye,

We'll be together again

Makin' Whoopee lyrics - Frank Sinatra

Another bride, another June

Another sunny honeymoon

Another season, another reason

For makin' whoopee

A lot of shoes, a lot of rice

The groom is nervous, he answers twice

It's really killin' that he's so willin'

To make whoopee

Picture a little love nest

Down where the roses cling

Picture the same sweet love nest

And think what a year can bring

He's washin' dishes and baby clothes

He's so ambitious, he even sews

But don't forget folks, that's what you get folks

For makin' whoopee

Another bride, another June

Another sunny, a sunny honeymoon

Another reason is that season

For makin' whoopee

A mess of shoes, a gang of rice

The groom is nervous that he answers twice

It's really killin' this cat so willin'

To make whoopee

Now he's washin' dishes with those baby clothes

He's so ambitious, man, he even sews

But don't forget folks, that's what you get folks

For makin' whoopee

But don't forget folks, that's what you get folks

For makin' whoopee

Swingin' Down The Lane lyrics - Frank Sinatra

Everybody's hand in hand

Swingin' down the lane

Everybody's feelin' grand

Swingin' down the lane

That's the time I miss the bliss

That we might have known

Nights like this

When I'm all alone

When the moon is on the rise

Baby I'm so blue

Watchin' lovers makin' eyes

Like we used to do

When the moon is on the wane

Still I'm waitin' all in vain

Should be swingin' down the lane

With you

When the moon is on the rise

Baby I'm so blue

Watchin' lovers makin' eyes

Like we used to do

When the moon is on the wane

Still I'm waitin' all in vain

Should be swingin' down the lane

With you

Anything Goes lyrics - Frank Sinatra

In olden days a glimpse of stocking

Was looked on as something shocking

Now heaven knows, anything goes

Good authors too who once knew better words

Now only use four letter words writing prose, anything goes

The world has gone mad today and good's bad today

And black's white today and day's night today

When most guys today that women prize today

Are just silly gigolos

So though I'm not a great romancer

I know that you're bound to answer

When I propose, anything goes

In olden days a glimpse of stocking

Was looked on as something shocking

Now heaven knows, anything goes

And good authors too who once knew better words

Now only use four letter words writing prose

'Cause anything goes

The world has gone mad today and good's bad today

And black's white today and day's night today

When most guys today that women prize today

Are just silly gigolos

So though I'm not a great romancer

I know that you're bound to answer

When I propose, anything goes

May I say before this record spins to a close

I want you to know anything goes

How About You? lyrics - Frank Sinatra

I like New York in June, how about you?

I like a Gershwin tune, how about you?

I love a fireside when a storm is due

I like potato chips, moonlight, motor trips, how about you?

I'm mad about good books, can't get my fill

And James Durantes looks give me a thrill

Holding hands in the movie show

When all the lights are low may not be new

But I like it, how about you?

I like New York in June, how about you?

I like a Gershwin tune, how about you?

I love a fireside when a storm is due, how about you?

I'm mad about good books, can't get my fill

And James Durantes looks they give me a thrill

Holding hands in the movie show

When all the lights are low may not be new

But I like it, and I like it, I like it, how about you?

In The Wee Small Hours (1955)

In The Wee Small Hours Of The Morning lyrics - Frank Sinatra

In the wee small hours of the morning,

While the whole wide world is fast asleep,

You lie awake and think about the girl

And never, ever think of counting sheep.

When your lonely heart has learned its lesson,

You'd be hers if only she would call,

In the wee small hours of the morning,

That's the time you miss her most of all.

[Musical interlude]

When your lonely heart has learned its lesson,

You'd be hers if only she would call,

In the wee small hours of the morning,

That's the time you miss her most of all.

Mood Indigo lyrics - Frank Sinatra

You ain't been blue; no, no, no

You ain't been blue

Till you've had that mood indigo

That feelin' goes stealin' down to my shoes

While I sit and sigh, "Go 'long blues"

Always get that mood indigo

Since my baby said goodbye

In the evenin' when lights are low

I'm so lonely I could cry

'Cause there's nobody who cares about me

I'm just a soul who's

Bluer than blue can be

When I get that mood indigo

I could lay me down and die

Glad To Be Unhappy lyrics - Frank Sinatra

Look at yourself, if you had a sense of humor

You would laugh to beat the band

Look at yourself, do you still believe the rumor

That romance is simply grand?

Since you took it right on the chin

You have lost that bright toothpaste grin

My mental state is all a-jumble

I sit around and sadly mumble

Fools rush in, so here I am

Very glad to be unhappy

I can't win, but here I am

More than glad to be unhappy

Unrequited love's a bore

And I've got it pretty bad

But for someone you adore

It's a pleasure to be sad

Like a straying baby lamb

With no mammy and no pappy

I'm so unhappy

But oh, so glad!

I Get Along Without You Very Well lyrics - Frank Sinatra

I get along without you very well,

Of course I do,

Except when soft rains fall

And drip from leaves, then I recall

The thrill of being sheltered in your arms.

Of course, I do,

But I get along without you very well.

I've forgotten you just like I should,

Of course I have,

Except to hear your name,

Or someone's laugh that is the same,

But I've forgotten you just like I should.

What a guy, what a fool am I,

To think my breaking heart could kid the moon.

What's in store? Should I phone once more?

No, it's best that I stick to my tune.

I get along without you very well,

Of course I do,

Except perhaps in Spring,

But I should never think of Spring,

For that would surely break my heart in two.

Deep In A Dream lyrics - Frank Sinatra

I dim all the lights and I sink in my chair.

The smoke from my cigarette climbs through the air.

The walls of my room fade away in the blue,

And I'm deep in a dream of you.

The smoke makes a stairway for you to descend;

You come to my arms, may this bliss never end,

For we love anew just as we used to do

When I'm deep in a dream of you.

Then from the ceiling, sweet music comes stealing;

We glide through a lover's refrain, you're so appealing

That I'm soon revealing my love for you over again.

My cigarette burns me, I wake with a start;

My hand isn't hurt, but there's pain in my heart.

Awake or asleep, ev'ry mem'ry I'll keep

Deep in a dream of you.

I See Your Face Before Me lyrics - Frank Sinatra

In a world of glitter and glow

In a world of tinsel and show

The unreal from the real thing is hard to know

I discovered somebody who

Could be truly worthy and true

Yes, I met my ideal thing when I met you

I see your face before me

Crowding my every dream

There is your face before me

You are my only theme

It doesn't matter where you are

I can see how fair you are

I close my eyes and there you are

Always

If you could share the magic

Yes, if you could see me too

There would be nothing tragic

In all my dreams of you

Would that my love could haunt you so

Knowing I want you so

I can't erase your beautiful face before me

Can't We Be Friends? lyrics - Frank Sinatra

I took each word she said as gospel truth

The way a silly little child would.

I can't excuse it on the grounds of youth,

I was no babe in the wild, wild wood.

She didn't mean it,

I should have seen it,

But now it's too late.

I thought I'd found the girl of my dreams,

Now it seems,

This is how the story ends:

She's gonna turn me down and say,

"Can't we be friends?"

I thought for once it couldn't go wrong,

Not for long,

I can see the way this ends:

She's gonna turn me down and say,

"Can't we be friends?"

Why should I care though she gave me the air,

Why should I cry,

Heave a sigh,

And wonder why,

And wonder why?

I thought I found the gal I could trust,

Watta bust, this is how the story ends:

She's gonna turn me down and say,

"Can't we be just friends?"

When Your Lover Has Gone lyrics - Frank Sinatra

From ages to ages the poets and sages,

Of love glorious love always sing,

But ask any lover and you'll soon discover,

The heartaches that romance can bring,

When you're alone, who cares for starlit skies

When you're alone, the magic moonlight dies

At break of dawn, there is no sunrise

When your lover has gone

What lonely hours, the evening shadows bring

What lonely hours, with memories lingering

Like faded flowers, life can't mean anything

When your lover has gone

What Is This Thing Called Love lyrics - Frank Sinatra

I was a hum-drum person

Leading a life apart

When love flew in through my window wide

And quickened my hum-drum heart

Love flew in thorugh my window

I was so happy then

But after love had stayed a little while

Love flew out again

What is this thing called love?

This funny thing called love?

Just who can solve its mystery?

Why should it make a fool of me?

I saw you there one wonderful day

You took my heart and threw my heart away

That's why I ask the Lawd up in Heaven above

What is this thing called love?

You gave me days of sunshine

You gave me nights of cheer

You made my life an enchanted dream

'Til somebody else came near

Somebody else came near you

I felt the winter's chill

And now I sit and wonder night and day

Why I love you still?

Last Night When We Were Young lyrics - Frank Sinatra

Last night when we were young

Love was a star, a song unsung

Life was so new, so real so right

Ages ago last night

Today the world is old

You flew away and time grew cold

Where is that star that shone so bright

Ages ago last night?

To think that spring had depended

On merely this: a look, a kiss

To think that something so splendid

Could slip away in one little daybreak

So now, let's reminisce

And recollect the sighs and the kisses

The arms that clung

When we were young last night

I'll Be Around lyrics - Frank Sinatra

I'll be around,

No matter how

You treat me now

I'll be around from now on.

Your latest love

Can never last,

And when its past,

I'll be around when he's gone

Good-bye again,

And if you find a love like mine

Just now and then,

Oh drop a line to say you `re feeling fine

And when things go wrong

Perhaps you'll see

You're meant for me

So I'll be around when he's gone.

Good-bye again,

And if you find a love like mine

Just now and then,

Oh drop a line to say your feeling fine

And when things go wrong

Perhaps you'll see

You're meant for me

So I'll be around when he's gone.

Ill Wind lyrics - Frank Sinatra

Blow ill wind,

Blow away,

Let me rest today.

You're blowin' me no good,

No good.

Go ill wind,

Go away,

Skies are oh so gray

Around my neighborhood,

And that ain't good

You're only misleadin' the sunshine I'm needin',

Ain't that a shame

It's so hard to keep up with troubles that creep up

From out of nowhere,

When love's to blame.

So ill wind, blow away.

Let me rest today.

You're blowin' me no good.

[Musical interlude]

So, ill wind, blow away,

Please let me rest today.

You're blowing me no good, no good, no good.

It Never Entered My Mind lyrics - Frank Sinatra

Once I laughed when I heard you saying

That I'd be playing solitaire

Uneasy in my easy chair

It never entered my mind

And once you told me I was mistaken

That I'd awaken with the sun

And ordered orange juice for one

It never entered my mind

You had what I lack, myself

Now I even have to scratch my back myself

Once you warned me that if you scorned me

I'd say a lonely prayer again

And wish that you were there again

To get into my hair again

It never entered my mind

Once you warned me that if you scorned me

I'd say a lonely prayer again

And wish that you were there again

To get into my hair again

It never entered my mind

Dancing On The Ceiling lyrics - Frank Sinatra

The world is lyrical

Because a miracle

Has brought my lover to me

Though he's some other place

His face I see

At night I creep in bed

And never sleep in bed

But look above in the air

And to my greatest joy my boy is there

It his prince and walks

Into my dreams and talks

He dances overhead

On the ceiling near my bed

In my sight

Through the night

I tried to hide in vain

Underneath my counterpane

There's my love up above

I whisper "go away my lover it's not fair"

But I'm so grateful to discover he's till there

I love my ceiling more since it is a dancing floor

Just for my love

I'll Never Be The Same lyrics - Frank Sinatra

I'll never be the same

Stars have lost their meaning for me

I'll never be the same

Nothing's what it once used to be

And when the songbirds that sing

Tell me it's spring

I can't believe their song

Once love was king

But kings can be wrong

I'll never be the same

There is such an ache in my heart

Never be the same

Since we're apart

Though there's such a lot

That a smile may hide

I know down deep inside

I'll never be the same

Never be the same again

I'll never be the same

Never be the same again

This Love Of Mine lyrics - Frank Sinatra

This love of mine goes on and on,

Tho' life is empty since you have gone.

You're always on my mind, tho' out of sight

It's lonesome thru the day,

But oh! the night.

I cry my heart out it's bound to break,

Since nothing matters, let it break.

I ask the sun and the moon,

The stars that shine,

What's to become of it, this love of mine.
