A chair is still a chair
Even when there's no one sittin' there
But a chair is not a house
And a house is not a home
When there's no one there,
To hold you tight
An' no one there
You can kiss goodnight . . .

"Accentuate The Positive"

(ac-cent-thu-ate the positive,
E-lim-inate the negative,
Ac-cent-thu-ate the positive, an' latch on!)

You gotta accent-thu-ate the positive,
E-lim-inate the negative,

And I love you so
The people ask me how
How I've lived 'til now
I tell them I don't know

I guess they understand
How lonely life has been
But life began again

"Bali Ha'i"

Bali Ha'i may call you, any night, any day
In your heart, you'll hear it call you
Come away, come away

Bali Ha'i will whisper on the wind of the sea
Here am I your special island

Wise men say, only fools rush in,
But I can't help falling in love with you.
Shall I stay, would it be a sin?
If I can't help falling in love with you.

Like a river flows, slowly to the sea,
Darling so it goes,
Some things are meant to be.

Catch a falling star an’ put it in your pocket,
Never let it fade away!
Catch a falling star an’ put it in your pocket,
Save it for a rainy day!

For love may come an' tap you on the shoulder,
Some star-less night!
Just in case you feel you wanna’ hold her,

CATERINASchuman / Bower

Caa-taa-reena, O' Ho Ho!
When we kiss, Purdy Miss, Purdy Miss,
I'm in ecstasy! ( Si, Si, Si Si! )

Caterina, O' Ho, Ho Ho! ( O’ Ho, Ho Ho! )
But when we kiss, Purdy Miss, Purdy Miss,

Christmas bells in the steeple,
Ringing out on Christmas morn,
But where are all the people,
Where has everybody gone ?

They're all busy with their presents,
Snug an' warm behind their doors,
Thinkin' no one was forgotten,

Why do birds suddenly appear,
Every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be, close to you . . .

Why do stars fall down from the sky,
Every time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be, close to you . . .

It’s always fair weather,
when hep cats get together!
And every time they meet,
here’s the way you’ll hear them greet ( greet! )
A hubba-hubba-hubba Hello Dad!

Well a hubba-hubba-hubba, I just got back!
Well a hubba-hubba-hubba, let’s shoot some breeze!

Said the night wind to the little lamb:
Do you see what I see?
'Way up in the sky, little lamb,
Do you see what I see?
A star, a star
Dancing in the night,
|: With a tail as big as a kite. :|

Don’t let the stars get in your eyes,
Don’t let the moon break your heart!
Love blooms at night,
In daylight it dies,
Don’t let the stars get in your eyes,
Don’t keep your heart from me,
For some day I’ll return,
And you know you’re the only one I’ll ever love!

Dream on little dreamer dreamer on
Dream on little dreamer dreamer on
I get a heart full of butterflies, lookin' into your dreamy eyes
Dream on ( Dream on! ) little dreamer dreamer on!

Dream on little dreamer dreamer on
Dream on little dreamer dreamer on
Dream about a love so true, dream about how I love you

I'd rather be a sparrow than a snail,
Yes, I would,
If I could,
I surely would . . . hmm

I'd rather be a hammer than a nail,
Yes, I would,
If I only could,

Everybody is lookin' for an answer,
Now that you've tried your way,
Why don't you try my way?

Everybody is lookin' for a sunrise,
Peace of mind,
Is surely hard to find!

Feelings, nuthin' more than feelings,
Tryin' to forget my,
Feelings of love . . .

Teardrops, rollin' down on my face,
Tryin' to forget my,
Feelings of love . . .

Don't look so sad, I know it's over
But life goes on and this old world will keep on turning
Let's just be glad we had some time to spend together
There's no need to watch the bridges that we're burning

Lay your head upon my pillow
Hold your warm and tender body close to mine
Hear the whisper of the raindrops

Forever and ever,
My heart will be true!
Sweetheart, forever,
I'll wait for you!

We both made a promise,
That we'd never part,
Let's seal it with a kiss,

I'm in love with a dolly named 'Glendora'
She works in the window of a big department stor-a!
Eyes of blue, hair like gold,
Never been young, but she'll never get old . . .
Oh Glendora . . . I wanna see more of you!

O' Glendora . . . O' Glendora . . .
O' Glendora . . . I wanna see more of you!

Listen, shh
Listen, there, it's playing again
Gringo's guitar playing songs of desire
Are sung by the haunted wind

Down in Nualo, Laredo
On the border of ol' Mexico
There's a legend they tell of a cowboy

When I think of Tom
I think about a night
When the earth smelled of summer
And the sky was streaked with white
And the soft mist of England
Was sleeping on a hill

I remember this

Oh! There’s no place like home for the holidays,
‘Cause no matter how far away you roam,
When you pine for the sunshine of a friendly gaze,
For the holidays you can’t beat home sweet home!

I met a man who lives in Tennessee,
and he was heading for,
Pennsylvania and some homemade pumpkin pie!

Oh, hot diggity, dog ziggity, boom what you do to me
It's so new to me, what you do to me
Hot diggity, dog ziggity, boom what you do to me
When you're holding me tight

Never dreamed anybody could kiss thattaway
Bring me bliss thattaway, what a kiss thattaway
What a wonderful feelin' to feel thattaway

I believe, for every drop of rain that falls,
A flower grows...

I believe that somewhere in the darkest night,
A candle glows...

I believe for everyone who goes astray,
Someone will come, to show the way,

( I Know, I know, oh yes, I know! )

I know what it means
to be lost in the dark!
I know what it means
to be tossed by the storm!

I have walked alone

I have heard the wild bird's sing
So I know what "freedom" is
I have looked into the eyes of a child
So I know what "faith" is
I have seen a rainbow
So I know what "beauty" is
I have planted a tree
So I know what "hope" is

I love you an' don't you forget it,
I love you an' don't you forget it,
I love you an' don't you forget it, baby!

Love me too an' you won't regret it,
Love me too an' you won't regret it,
Love me too an' you won't regret it, baby!

I thought about walkin'
Thought about talkin'
Thought about singin'
Singin' the blues!

Thought about cryin'
Once I even thought of dyin'
But baby, most of all,

I wanna give,
I wanna give my love to you completely,
I beg of you,
I beg of you to listen to my heart!

I've never prayed like this before,
And i'm askin' you not to close the door,
For i can tame the wind and smooth the waters,

I'll be home for Christmas
you can plan on me
Please have snow and mistletoe
and presents on the tree!

Christmas Eve will find me
where the love light gleams
I'll be home for Christmas

At the end of the rainbow there's happiness
and to find it how often I've tried
but my life is a race, just a wild goose chase
and my dreams have all been denied!

Why have I always been a failure?
What can the reason be?
I wonder if the world's to blame?

and I were the only boy!

Nothing else would matter in the world today

we could go on loving in the same old way!

A garden of Eden just made for two

It's impossible

Tell the sun to leave the sky
It's just impossible
It's impossible

Ask a baby not to cry
It's just impossible

Oh! It's a good day, for singin' a song,
An' it's a good day for movin' along,
Yes, it's a good day, how could anything go wrong?
A good day from mornin' 'till night!

Yes it's a good day, ( it's a lovely day for shinin' ) for shinin' your shoes
An' it's a good day ( if you wan' a silver linin' ) for losin' the blues
( You got . . . ) Everything t' gain ( everythin' t' gain and nuthin' ) and nuthin' t' lose,

It's impossible to tell the sun to leave the sky,
It's just impossible.
It's impossible to ask a baby not to cry,
It's just impossible.
Can I hold you closer to me
And not feel you going through me,
But the second that I never think of you?
Oh, how impossible.

Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way!
O what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh

Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way!
O what fun it is to ride

Caa-taa-reena, O’ Ho Ho!
When we kiss, Purdy Miss, Purdy Miss,
I’m in ecstasy! ( Si, Si, Si Si! )

Caterina, O’ Ho, Ho Ho! ( O’ Ho, Ho Ho! )
But when we kiss, Purdy Miss, Purdy Miss,
Are you thinkin’ of me? ( Are you thinkin’ of me? )

I heard she sang a good song, I heard she had a style.
And so I came to see her and listen for a while.
And there she was this young girl, a stranger to my eyes.

Strumming my pain with her fingers,
singing my life with her words,
killing me softly with her song,
killing me softly with her song,

I heard she sang a good song,
I heard she had a style.
And so I came to see her
And listen for a while.
And there she was this young girl,
A stranger to my eyes.

Strumming my pain with her fingers,

(Ko ko mo, Ko ko mo, Ko ko mo)
(Ko ko mo, Ko ko mo, Ko ko mo)
(Ko ko mo, Ko ko mo, Ko ko mo)
(Ko ko mo, Ko ko mo, Ko ko mo)

Oh, talk to me baby, whisper in my ear
Talk to me baby, whisper in my ear
Come a little closer, don't have no fear

Linda, Linda
Morning noon an' night I find
Linda's always on my mind

When I go to sleep,
I never count sheep,
I count all the charms about Linda!

Perry Como - Love Makes The World Go 'Round (1964)

( Yea, Yea and a Yea, Yeah! ) Yes!

There’s been a lot of talk about the game of love,
It’s what everybody, everywhere, is thinking of!
The love bug’s busy as he can be,
And I gotta a funny feeling that he just bit me!

Magic, moments,
When two hearts are carin',
Magic, moments,
Memories we've been sharin'. . .

I'll never forget the moment we kissed,
The night of the hayride,
The way that we hugged to try to keep warm,

Magic, moments,
When two hearts are carin’,
Magic, moments,
Memories we’ve been sharin’ . . .

I’ll never forget the moment we kissed,
The night of the hayride,
The way that we hugged to try to keep warm,

Moon River, wider than a mile
I'm crossing you in style, some day

Oh dream maker, you heart breaker
Wherever you're goin', I?m goin' your way

Two drifters, off to see the world
There's such a lot of world to see

Moon River, wider than a mile
I'm crossing you in style, some day

Oh dream maker, you heart breaker
Wherever you're goin', I?m goin' your way

Two drifters, off to see the world
There's such a lot of world to see

Moon River, wider than a mile,
I’m crossing you in style, some day,
Oh dream maker, you heart breaker,
Wherever you’re goin’, I’m goin’ your way,
Two drifters, off to see the world,
There’s such a lot of world to see,
We’re after the same rainbows end,
Waitin’ ‘round the bend,

Sometimes in the morning, when shadows are deep,
I lie here beside you, just watching you sleep,
And sometimes I whisper, what I'm thinking of,
My cup runneth over with love . . .

Sometimes in the evening, when you do not see,
I study the small things, you do constantly,
I memorize moments, that I'm fondest of,

Raindrops on roses,
And whiskers on kittens,
Bright copper kettles,
And warm woollen mittens,
Brown paper packages,
Tied up with strings,
These are a few of my favorite things . . .

Here she comes, she's all dressed up in daisies,
Half the time, you'd swear that she is crazy.
Flowered drinks and a low-cut dress,
That's the way I know her best.
She says she's lonely, how could she be?
Every night she's got company.

Oh Marie,

Papa loves mambo
Mama loves mambo
Look at 'em sway with it, gettin' so gay with it
Shoutin' "ol" with it, wow! (ooh!)

Papa loves mambo
(Papa loves mambo)
Mama loves mambo

Raindrops keep falling on my head
And just like the guy whose feet are too big for his bed
Nothin’ seems to fit
Those raindrops are falling on my head, they keep falling

So I just did me some talkin’ to the sun
And I said I didn’t like the way he’ got things done
Sleepin’ on the job

Raindrops keep fallin' on my head
And just like the guy whose feet are too big for his bed
Nothin' seems to fit
Those raindrops are fallin' on my head, they keep fallin'

So I just did me some talkin' to the sun
And I said I didn't like the way he got things done
Sleepin' on the job

Find a wheel and it goes round, round, round
As it skims along with a happy sound
As it goes along the ground, ground, ground
Till it leads you to the one you love
Then your love will hold you round, round, round
In your heart's a song with a brand new song
And your head goes spinning round, round, round
'cause you've found what you've been dreamin' of

Perry Como - Santa Lucia (album "In Italy", 1966)

Sul mare luccica l’astro d’argento
Placida é l’onda
Prospero il vento

Sul mare luccica l’astro d’argento
Placida é l’onda

Some enchanted evening, you may see a stranger
You may see a stranger across a crowded room,
An' somehow you know, you know even then,
That somewhere you'll see her again and again!

Some enchanted evening, someone may be laughing
You may hear her laughing across a crowded room,
An' night after night as strange as it seems

Somebody cares,
When your heart is feeling blue,
As you climb your lonely stair,
Somebody cares!

Somebody knows,
When each dream falls through,
Though you think it never shows,

Is this the little girl I carried?
Is this the little boy at play?
I don't remember growing older,
When did they?

When did she get to be a beauty?
When did he grow to be so tall?
Wasn't it yesterday when they were small?

(i’m in love with the girl with the golden,
Can’t live without the girl with the golden. .. braids!)
I saw a gal with golden hair
Dancin’as i played
Never saw a gal so fair
As the girl with the golden braids!
I was travellin’with a band,
Came to town and stayed

He wore the rose tattoo,
To prove his love was true . . .
But hearts can lie, so why deny,
That roses fade and love can die . . .

She'll wait her whole life through,
Like fools an' dreamer's do . . .
She'll go on caring for one who's wearing,

The shadow of your smile
When you have 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

‘Till the end of time,
‘long as stars are in the blue,
‘long as there’s a spring, a bird to sing,
I’ll go on loving you.

‘Till the end of time,
‘long as roses bloom in May,
my love for you will grow deeper,

When we were small,
I used to call you Tomboy
The years have flown
Since you were known as Tomboy

No made-up face, no fancy lace
Pigtails in your hair
It seems like only yesterday

On the first day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
A partridge in a pear tree.

On the second day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.

Oh, my love, my darling
I've hungered for your touch
A long, lonely time

Time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine?

run, but don't be scared to look behind.
stop, don't wait too long, make up your mind.
the end is almost here,
the sky, the air, so nice and clear,
the sound of your decay,
and the ringing in the air is the sweet debris of yesterday.
there, now that you know it's not so bad.
see, the good meet soon for lots of air.

Ca-taa-ree-na! Oh-ho-ho!
When we kiss, Purdy Miss, Purdy Miss,
I’m in ecstasy!
Caterina, o-ho-ho-ho!
But when we kiss, Purdy Miss, Purdy Miss,
Are you thinkin’ of me?

Ca-taa-ree-na! Ha, ha, ha!

Magic, moments,
When two hearts are carin’,
Magic, moments,
Memories we’ve been sharin’ . . .

I’ll never forget the moment we kissed,
The night of the hayride,
The way that we hugged to try to keep warm,
