My Girl

My girl is violin and candlelight,

My girl is star-shine on a summer night.

Lucky heart to be part of a love like this,

Where every single kiss is a short-cut to heaven.

Heaven knows, she's everything that's dear to me,

She smiles, and cloudy days are clear to me.

Yes, the world is my oyster and I got the pearl,

And I'm happy 'cause I got my girl.

My girl is autumn days and skies of gold,

A fire to dream by, when the night is cold.

Yes, the world is my oyster and I've got the pearl,

I'm happy 'cause I've got my girl.

My Happiness

Evening shadows make me blue when each weary day is through,

How I long to be with you, my happiness.

Everyday I reminisce, dreaming of your tender kiss,

Always thinking how I miss my happiness.

A million years it seems, have gone by since we shared our dreams.

But I'll hold you again, there'll be no blue memories then.

Whether skies are gray or blue, any place on earth will do,

Just as long as I'm with you, my happiness.

My Heart Stood Still

I laughed at sweethearts
I met at schools
All indiscreet hearts
Seemed romantic fools
A house in Iceland
Was my heart's domain
I saw your eyes
Now castles rise in Spain!

I took one look at you
That's all I meant to do
And then my heart stood still
My feet could step and walk
My lips could move and talk
And yet my heart stood still

Though not a single word was spoken
I could tell you knew
That unfelt clasp of hands
Told me so well you knew
I never lived at all
Until the thrill of that moment when
My heart stood still

Through all my school days
I hated boys
Those April Fool days
Brought me loveless joys
I read my Plato
Love, I thought a sin
But since your kiss
I'm reading Missus Glyn!

My Heart Tells Me

My heart tells me this is just a fling
And yet you say our love means everything
Do you mean what you are saying
Or is this a little game you're playing?

My heart tells me I will cry again
Lips that kiss like yours could lie again
If I'm fool enough to see this through, will I
Be sorry if I do? Should I believe my heart or you?

My heart tells me I will cry again
'Cause lips that kiss like yours could lie again
If I'm fool enough to see this through, will I
Be sorry if I do? Should I believe my heart or you?

My Ideal

Will I ever find the girl on my mind, the one who is my ideal
Maybe she's a dream, and yet she might be
Just around the corner waiting for me.
Will I recognize the light in her eyes, that no other eyes reveal
Or will I pass her by and never even know that she is my ideal.

My Kind Of Girl

She walks like an angel walks,
she talks like an angel talks,
And her hair has a kind of curl,
to my mind, she's my kind of girl.
She's wise like an angel's wise,
with eyes like an angel's eyes,
And a smile like a kind of pearl,
to my mind, she's my kind of girl.
A pretty little face,
that face just knocks me off my feet,
A pretty little feet,
she's really sweet enough to eat.
She looks like an angel looks,
she cooks like an angel cooks,
And my mind in a kind of whirl,
to my mind, she's my kind of girl.
(full instrumental interlude)
Hmmm, pretty little face,
that face just knocks me off my feet,
Pretty little feet,
she's really sweet enough to eat.
She looks like an angel looks,
and she cooks like an angel cooks,
And my mind in a kind of whirl,
to my mind, she's my kind of girl.
And my hearts Kind-a full of joy
Because she's told me
I'm her kind of boy

My Kind Of Town

Now this could only happen to a guy like me
And only happen in a town like this.
So may I say to each of you most gratefully
As I throw each one of you a kiss:

This is my kind of town.
Chicago is,
My kind of town,Chicago is,
My kind of people, too;
People who smile at you,
And each time I roam, Chicago is,
Callin' me home, Chicago is,
Why I just grin like a clown;
It's my kind of town.

My kind of town.
Chicago is my kind of town.
Chicago is my kind of razzmatazz
And it has all that jazz,

And each time I leave, Chicago is,
Tuggin' my sleeve, Chicago is,
The Wrigley Building,Chicago is,
The Union Stockyards, Chicago is,
One town that won't let you down;
It's my kind of town.

My Love For You

My love for you
Is deep and endless as the sea
Strong and mighty as a tree
My love for you

My eager heart
Keeps beating just for you alone
Since the moment it is known
My love for you

There'll be no other lips
No other eyes
No other love for me
Feeling as I do
How could there be

(And) so it will be
Far beyond eternity
Ever faithful ever true
My love for you

My Melancholy Baby

Come to me, my melancholy baby
Cuddle up and don't be blue
All your fears are foolish fancies, maybe
You know, honey, I'm in love with you

Every cloud must have a silver lining
Just wait until the sun shines through
Smile, my honey dear, while I kiss away each tear
Or else I shall be melancholy too



Smile, my honey dear, while I kiss away each tear
Or else I shall be melancholy too

My Memoirs

We fell in love one summer night,
The stars hang low, the moon was white,
That's where I'll start when I write my memoirs.
The way you look, the things you said,
The clothes you wore, the books you read,
I'll tell of all these things in my memoirs.
As the pages turn, love lives anew, worth paint a picture of you
Read between the lines, dear, if you will,
And you will learn that I love you still.
And there's a footnote referring you
Back to the night you said we're through.
There's nothing more to say in my memoirs.
