Stars shining bright above you
Night breezes seem to whisper "I love you"
Birds singing in the sycamore tree
Dream a little dream of me
Say "Night-ie-night" and kiss me
Just hold me tight and tell me you'll miss me
While I'm alone and blue as can be
Dream a little dream of me
...........................
Stars fading but I linger on, dear
Still craving your kiss
I'm longing to linger till dawn, dear
Just saying this
Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me.
(Louis Armstrong Soundtract-Dream A Little Dream Of Me)
I long to hold some lady
For my love is far away,
And will not come tomorrow
And was not here today.
...........................
Alas, I cannot travel
To a love I have so deep
Or sleep too close beside
A love I want to keep.
But I long to hold some lady,
For flesh is warm and sweet.
Cold skeletons go marching
Each night beside my feet...
(L. Cohen. Stranger music )
It seems we stood and talked like this before
We looked at each other in the same way then
But I can't remember where or when
And so it seems that we have met before
And that we laughed before also loved before
But who knows where or when...
( Diana Krall and Quiet nights)
(for you dear J)
Happy birthday to Marcia...
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.....
Diana Krall ( Quiet nights)
I don't know enough about you...
I know a little bit about a lot of thing
But I don't know enough about you
Just when I think you're mine
You try a different line and baby what can I do?
I read the latest news no buttons of my shoes
But baby I'm confused about you
You've got me in a spin and what a spin I'm in
Cause I don't know enough about you.
(Diana Krall. I don't know enough about you)
I'm not looking for another
As I wander in my time
Walk me to the corner
Our steps will always rhyme
You know my love goes with you
As your love stays with me
It's just the way it changes
Like the shoreline and the sea
But let's not talk of love or chains
And things we can't untie
Your eyes are soft with sorrow
Hey, that's no way to say goodbye...
(Leonard Cohen)
Oceans apart day after day
And I slowly go insane
I hear your voice on the line
But it doesn't stop the pain
If I see you next to never
How can we stay forever
Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it taks
or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you
(Richard Marx. Right here waiting for you)
Travelling lady stay a while
Until the night is over
I'm just a station on your way
I know I'm not your lover.
(Winter Lady by Leonard Cohen)
