Jane Monheit - The Lovers, The Dreamers And Me (2008) by Jane Monheit (보컬) on maniadb.com

Just like a star across my sky
Just like an angel off the page
You have appeared to my life
Feel like I'll never be the same

Just like a song in my heart
Just like oil on my hands
Oh, I do love you

Still I wonder why it is
I don't argue like this
With anyone but you
We do it all the time
Blowing out my mind

You've got this look I can't describe
You make me feel like I'm alive
When everything else is a fade
Without a doubt you're on my side

Heaven has been away too long
Can't find the words to write this song
Oh, your love

Still I wonder why it is
I don't argue like this
With anyone but you
We do it all the time
Blowing out my mind

I have come to understand
The way it is, it's not a secret anymore
'Cause we've been through that before
From tonight I know that you're the only one
I've been confused and in the dark, now I understand

I wonder why it is
I don't argue like this
With anyone but you
I wonder why it is

I won't let my guard down
For anyone but you
We do it all the time
Blowing out my mind

Just like a star across my sky
Just like an angel off the page
You have appeared to my life
Feel like I'll never be the same
Just like a song in my heart
Just like oil on my hands

Something cool
I'd like to order something cool
It's so warm here in town and this heat gets me down
Yes, I'd like something cool

My, it's nice to simply sit and rest awhile
You know it's a shame
I can't think of your name
I remember your smile

I don't ordinarily drink with strangers
I guess I usually drink alone
But you were so awfully nice to ask me
And I'm so terribly far from home

Like my dress I must confess it's very old
But it's simple and neat, it's just right for this heat
Save my furs for the cold
A cigarette, no I don't smoke them as a rule

But I'll have one, it might be fun with something cool

I'd bet you wouldn't imagine that I once had a house
With so many rooms you couldn't count them all
I'll bet that you couldn't imagine I had fifteen different boys
Who would beg and beg to take me to a ball

And I know you couldn't picture me
The time I went to Paris in the fall
And who would think the man that I loved
Was quite so handsome and quite so tall

Well, it's through, it's just a memory I had
One I almost forgot since the weather's so hot
And I'm feeling so bad about a date, oh wait, I'm such a fool
He's just a guy who stopped to buy me something cool

You moved like honey in my dream last night
Yeah, some old fires were burning
You came near to me and you endeared to me
But you couldn't quite discern me

Does that scare you? I'll let you run away
But your heart will not oblige you
You'll remember me like a melody
Yeah, I'll haunt the world inside you

And my big secret - Gonna win you over
Slow like honey, heavy with mood

I'll let you see me, I'll covet your regard
I'll invade your demeanor
And you'll yield to me like a scent in the breeze
And you'll wonder what it is about me

It's my big secret - Keeping you coming
Slow like honey, heavy with mood

Though dreams can be deceiving
Like faces are to hearts

They serve for sweet relieving
When fantasy and reality lie too far apart

So I stretch myself across, like a bridge
And I pull you to the edge
And stand there waiting
Trying to attain
The end to satisfy the story
Shall I release you?
Must I release you?
As I rise to meet my glory

But my big secret
Gonna hover over your life
Gonna keep you reaching
When I'm gone like yesterday
When I'm high like heaven
When I'm strong like music
cause I'm slow like honey, and
Heavy with mood

You see this girl, this girl's in love with you
Yes, I'm in love, who looks at you the way I do?
When you smile I can tell we know each other very well
How can I show you that I'm glad I got to know you?

'Cause I've heard some talk, they say you think I'm fine
This girl's in love and what I'd do to make you mine?
Tell me now is it so? Don't let me be the last to know
My hands are shaking, don't let my heart keep breaking

'Cause I need your love, I want your love
Say you're in love and you'll be my guy
If not I'll just die

Tell me now is it so? Don't let me be the last to know
My hands are shaking, don't let my heart keep breaking

'Cause I need your love, I want your love
Say you're in love and you'll be my guy
If not I'll just die

In this world of ordinary people, extraordinary people
I'm glad there is you
In this world of overrated pleasures, of underrated treasures
I'm so glad there is you

I live to love, I'll love to live with you beside me
This role so new I'll muddle through with you to guide me

In this world where very many play at love
And hardly any stay in love
I'm glad there is you
More than ever I'm glad there is you

I live to love, I'll love to live with you beside me
This role so new I'll muddle through with you to guide me

In this world where very many play at love
And hardly any stay in love
I'm glad there is you
More than ever I'm glad there is you

Get out of town before it's too late, my love
Get out of town, be good to me please
Why wish me harm? Why not retire to a farm
And be contented to charm the birds off the trees?

Just disappear, I care for you much too much
And when you are near close to me, dear we touch too much
The times when we meet is so bittersweet
That darling it's getting me down so on your mark, get set, get out of town

Get out of town before it's too late, my love
Get out of town, be good to me please
Why wish me harm? Why not retire to a farm
And be contented to charm the birds off the trees?

Just disappear, I care for you much too much
And when you're near close to me, dear we touch too much
The times when we meet is so bittersweet that
Darling, it's getting me down so on your mark, get set, get out of town
Get out of town, get out of town

We were married on a rainy day
The sky was yellow and the grass was green
We signed the papers and drove away
I do it for your love

The rooms were musty and the pipes were old
All that winter we shared a cold
And drank all the orange juice that we could hold
I do it for your love

Found a rug in an old junk shop
And I brought it home to you
But on the way the colors ran
The orange bled the blue

The sting of reason, the splash of tears
The northern and southern hemispheres
Love emerges and it disappears
I do it for your love, I do it for your love

Found a rug in an old junk shop
And I brought it home to you
But on the way the colors ran
The orange bled the blue

The sting of reason, the splash of tears
The northern and southern hemispheres
Love emerges and it disappears
I do it for your love, I do it for your love
I do it for your love

Sing a song of sad young men, glasses full of rye
All the news is bad again, kiss your dreams goodbye
All the sad young men sitting in the bars
Knowing neon lights missing all the stars

All the sad young men drifting through the town
Drinking up the night, trying not to drown
All the sad young men singing in the cold
Trying to forget that they are growing old
All the sad young men choking on their words
Trying to be brave, running from the truth

Autumn turns the leaves to gold, slowly dies the heart
Sad young men are growing old that's the cruelest part
All the sad young men seek a certain smile
Someone they can hold for a little while
Tired little girl does the best she can
Trying to be gay for her sad young man

While the grimy moon watches from up above
All the sad young men play of making love
Misbegotten moon shine for sad young men
May your gentle light guide them home tonight
All the sad young men

What a day
Fortune smiled and came my way
Bringing love, I never thought I'd see
I'm so lucky to be me

What a night
Suddenly you came in sight
Looking just the way I'd hoped you'd be
I'm so lucky to be me

I am simply thunderstruck
At this change in my luck
Knew at once I wanted you
Never dreamed you'd want me too

I'm so proud
You chose me from all the crowd
There's no other girl I'd rather be
I'm so lucky to be me

I use to think it might be fun to be
Anyone else but me
I thought it would be a pleasant surprise
To see life through someone else's eyes

But now that I've found you
I've changed my point of view
And no I wouldn't give a dime to be
Anyone else but me

I am simply thunderstruck
At this change in my luck
Knew at once I wanted you
Never dreamed you'd want me too

I'm so proud
You chose me from all the crowd
There's no other girl I'd rather be
I could laugh out loud
I'm so lucky to be me

Intro:

A primeira vez que eu te encontrei, alimentei a ilusao de serfeliz
Eu era triste, sorri peguei no pinho e cantei
Tantos versos eu fiz em meu peito guardei
Um dia voce partiu, meu pinho emudeceu e a minha voz nagargan- ta morreu

Procuro esquecer a dor, nao sou capaz, meu violao naotoca mais
Eu vivo triste a meditar, nao canto mais, meu consolo

Why are there so many songs about rainbows,
And what's on the other side?
Rainbows are visions, but only illusions,
And rainbows have nothing to hide.
So we've been told and some choose to believe it,
I know they're wrong, wait and see.
Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection,
The lovers, the dreamers and me.

Who said that every wish would be heard and answered,
When wished on the morning star?
Somebody thought of that, and someone believed it,
And look what it's done so far.
What's so amazing that keeps us stargazing
And what do we think we might see?
Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection,
The lovers, the dreamers, and me.

All of us under its spell,
We know that it's probably magic ............

Have you been half asleep? And have you heard voices?
I've heard them calling my name.
Is this the sweet sound that calls the young sailors?
The voice might be one and the same.
I've heard it too many times to ignore it,
It's something that I'm s'posed to be .......
Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection,

The lovers, the dreamers, and me .........
