That's All

I can only give you love that lasts forever
And the promise to be near each time you call
And the only heart I own, for you and you alone,
That's all, that's all.
I can only give you country walks in Springtime
And a hand to hold when leaves begin to fall
And a love whose burning light will warm the winter night,
That's all, that's all.
There are those I am sure who have told you
They would give you the world for a toy.
All I have are these arms to enfold you and a love time can never destroy.
If you're wond'ring what I'm asking in return, dear,
You'll be glad to know that my demands are small.
Say it's me that you'll adore for now and ever more,
That's all, that's all.

That's For Me

The light-hearted gay kind of charm you display, that's for me.
The wonderful sly little trick with your eye, that's for me.
What a feather in my hat if I could gratify your wish;
Do you like the movies, or what is your favorite dish?
The tilt of your chin, when you chuckle or grin, that's for me.
You might as well know that wherever you go, there I'll be
Just to make sure you keep your heart alone and fancy free.
No one else can have it; that's for me

That's How It Goes

That's how it goes when you're in love with someone,
And someone's not in love with you.
It seems your heart and soul defy each frustrated desire
Of not seeing you, nothing I can do.
That's how it goes when you're in need of someone,
Who understands the way you feel,
But that's a dream that never will come true,
For that's life, that's how it goes.

That's How Much I Love You

If I had a nickel, I know what I would do,
I'd spend it all for candy and I'd give it all to you.
I'd spend it all for candy and give it all to you.
'Cause that's how much I love you, baby.
That's how much I love you, baby.
If you were a picture, I'd hang you up on the wall,
Sit back where I could see you and I'd never move at
all.
Sit back where I could see you, never move at all.
'Cause that's how much I love you, baby.
That's how much I love you, baby.

If you were a kitten, with pretty glossy fur,
I'd take you up and stroke you, listen to you purr.
I'd take you up and stroke you, listen to you purr.
Mmmm, that's how much I love you, baby.
That's how much I love you, dear.
And if you were a tiger, I'd hang around your den,
And pester you, my honey, until you let me in.
And pester you, my honey, till you let me in.
'Cause that's how much I love you, baby.
That's how much I love you, baby.

Baby, if you were horse fly and I an old gray mare,
I'd stand and let you bite me, and I'd never move a
hair.
I'd stand and let you bite me, never move a hair.
'Cause that's how much I love you, baby.
That's how much I love you, baby.
If you want to marry, now let me tell you what,
We'll go and find a parson, and I'd let him tie the
knot.
We'll go and find a parson, and let him tie the knot.
'Cause that's how much I love you, baby.
That's how much I love you, dear.

When I say you I love you, honey child, I leans on you
a little bit.

That's Life

That's life
That's what all the people say
You're riding high in April
Shot down in May
But I know I'm gonna change that tune
When I'm back on top, back on top in June

I said that's life
And as funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks
Stomping on a dream
But I don't let it, let it get me down
'Cause this fine old world
It keeps spinning around

I've been a puppet, a pauper,
A pirate, a poet,
A pawn and a king,
I've been up and down and over and out
And I know one thing
Each time I find myself
Flat on my face
I pick myself up and get back in the race

That's life
I tell you, I can't deny it
I thought of quitting baby
But my heart just ain't gonna buy it
And if I didn't think it was worth one single try
I'd jump right on a big bird
And then I'd fly

I've been a puppet, a pauper,
A pirate, a poet,
A pawn and a king,
I've been up and down and over and out
And I know one thing
Each time I find myself laying
Flat on my face
I just pick myself up and get back in the race

That's life
That's life, and I can't deny it
Many times I thought of cutting out
But my heart won't buy it
But if there nothing shaking coming this here July
I'm going to roll myself up in a big ball
And die...

My my...

That's What God Looks Like To Me

One day as I walked with my son hand in hand,
He said, there are things that I don't understand,
How high is the sky? what makes it so blue?
And tell me, dad, what does God look like to you?
I said, He looks like a rainbow, just after the rain,
He's as golden as wheat dancing over the plain.
He looks like the star when the night's crystal clear,
He looks like a baby when mother is near.
His face is the moonlight reflected on snow,
His hair like (a) garden where all flowers grow,
His heavenly eyes are as (blue) as the sea,
My son, that's what God really looks like.
(His) heart's like a mountain so vast and so strong,
That's why all his children have room (grown?) to belong.
His smile is the morning we waken to see,
But you, my son, you are what God really looks like to me.

Thats Amore

In Napoli where love is king
When boy meets girl here's what they say

When the moon hits your eye
Like a big pizza pie, that's amore
When the world seems to shine
Like you've had too much wine, that's amore

Bells will ring ting-a-ling-a-ling, ting-a-ling-a-ling
And you'll sing, "Vita bella"
Hearts will play tippy-tippy-tay, tippy-tippy-tay
Like a gay tarantella

When the stars make you drool
Just like a pasta fazool, that's amore
When you dance down the street
With a cloud at your feet, you're in love

When you walk down in a dream
But you know you're not dreaming signore
Scuzza me, but you see
Back in old Napoli, that's amore

When the moon hits your eye
Like a big pizza pie, that's amore
When the world seems to shine
Like you've had too much wine, that's amore

Bells will ring ting-a-ling-a-ling, ting-a-ling-a-ling
And you'll sing, "Vita bella"
Hearts will play tippy-tippy-tay, tippy-tippy-tay
Like a gay tarantella

When the stars make you drool
Just like a pasta fazool, that's amore
When you dance down the street
With a cloud at your feet, you're in love

When you walk down in a dream
But you know you're not dreaming signore
Scuzza me, but you see
Back in old Napoli
That's amore, lucky fella

When the stars make you drool
Just like a pasta fazool, that's amore
When you dance down the street
With a cloud at your feet, you're in love

When you walk down in a dream
But you know you're not dreaming signore
Scuzza me, but you see
Back in old Napoli
(That's amore)
Amore
(That's amore)

The Beautiful Strangers

All the beautiful strangers who held me for a night,

And fell down in the darkness on pillows soft and white,

All the beautiful strangers, all in the afternoon,

Who praised my flat little summer, and came back to my room,

All the beautiful strangers, they spoiled me for a time,

And they taught me neon's just as nice as afternoon sunshine.

The Bells Of Christmas

The bells, the bells, ringing everywhere for the sound of Christmas is in the air,
The bells, the bells, from the steeple above, telling us it's the season of love,
Ring out, let the tale be told that inspires the dream of the young and old,
Love, love, let your hearts unfold, for the bells of Christmas are ringing.
The bells, the bells, on a wintry night, with the friendly fire burning warm and bright,
The bells, the bells, on the steeple above, telling us it's the season of love.
Ring out, let the tale be told, that inspires the dream of the young and old,
Love, love, let your hearts unfold, for the bells of Christmas are ringing.
The bells, the bells, they've been here and now, to a world that almost forgotten how
The bells, the bells, from the steeple above, telling us it's the season of love.
Ring out, let the tale be told that inspires the dream of the young and old,
Love, love, let your hearts unfold, for the bells of Christmas are ringing.
The bells of Christmas are ringing.

The Best Is Yet To Come

Out of the tree of life, I just p***** me a plum
You came along and everything starting to hum
Still it's a real good bet, the best is yet to come
The best is yet to come, and babe, won't that be fine
You think you've seen the sun, but you ain't seen it shine
Wait till the warm-up's underway
Wait till our lips have met
Wait till you see that sunshine day
You ain't seen nothin' yet
The best is yet to come, and babe, won't it be fine
The best is yet to come, come the day your mine
Come the day your mine
I'm gonna teach you to fly
We've only tasted the wine
We're gonna drain that cup dry
Wait till your charms are right, for these arms to surround
You think you've flown before, but baby you ain't left the ground
Wait till you're locked in my embrace
Wait till I draw you near
Wait till you see that sunshine place
ain't nothin' like it here
The best is yet to come, and babe won't it be fine
The best is yet to come, come the day your mine
Come the day your mine
And your gonna be mine
