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.

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
