Dinah Shore - The Legendary Best Of... [compilation] (2008) by Dinah Shore (보컬) on maniadb.com

(Spoken:) A western ranch is just a branch of Nowhere Junction to me.
Give me the city where living's pretty and the gals wear finery.

East is east and west is west
And the wrong one I have chose
Let's go where I'll keep on wearin'
Those frills and flowers and buttons and bows
Rings and things and buttons and bows
Don't bury me in this prairie
Take me where the cement grows
Let's move down to some big town
Where they love a gal by the cut o' her clothes
And I'll stand out
In buttons and bows
I'll love you in buckskin
Or skirts that I've homespun
But I'll love ya' longer, stronger where
Yer friends don't tote a gun
My bones denounce the buckboard bounce
And the cactus hurts my toes
Let's vamoose where gals keep usin'
Those silks and satins and linen that shows
And I'm all yours in buttons and bows
Gimme eastern trimmin' where women are women
In high silk hose and peek-a-boo clothes
And French perfume that rocks the room
And I'm all yours in buttons and bows

You'll find your life will begin
The very moment you're in Argentina
If you're romantic senor
Then you will surely adore Argentina

You'll be as gay as can be
If you will learn to, si, si, like a Latin
For mister, soon as you learn
Then you will never return to Manhattan

When you hear, yo te amo
You'll steal a kiss and then
If she should say, manana
It's just to let you know
You're gonna meet again

I'll bet an old castanet that you will never forget Argentina
Where there are rumbas and tangos to tickle your spine
Moonlight and music and orchids and wine
You'll want to stay down Argentina way

> The moon was all aglow
But heaven was in your eyes
The night that you told me
Those little white lies
The stars all seemed to know
You didn't mean all those sighs
The night that you told me
Those little white lies
I try, but there's no forgetting
When evenin' appears
I sigh but there's no regretting
In spite of my tears
Who wouldn't believe those lips
Who wouldn't believe those eyes
The night that you told me
Those little white lies
I try, but there's no forgetting
When evenin' appears
I sigh but there's no regretting
In spite of my tears
The Devil was in your heart
But Heaven was in your eyes
The night that you told me
Those little white lies
Those lies
Teeny-weeny little white lies

Oh, how we danced on the night we were wed;
we vowed our true love though a word wasn't said.
The world was in bloom, there were stars in the skies
except for the few that were there in your eyes.

Dear, as I held you so close in my arms,
angels were singing a hymn to your charms,
Two hearts gently beating were murmuring low,
"My darling, I love you so."

The night seemed to fade into blossoming dawn;
the sun shone anew but the dance lingered on.
Could we but relive that sweet moment sublime,
we'd find that our love is unaltered by time.

I'll walk alone,
because to tell you the truth,
I'll be lonely.
I don't mind being lonely,
when my heart tells me,
you are lonely, too.

I'll walk alone,
they'll ask me why,
and I'll tell them I'd rather.
There are dreams I must gather
dreams we fashioned the night
you held me tight.

I'll always be near you,
wherever you are,
each night In every pray.
Just whisper, I'll hear you,
no matter how far.
So, close your eyes,
and I'll be there.

Please walk alone,
but send your love,
and your kisses to guide me.

Till you're walking beside me,
I'll walk alone.
Darling, all by myself,
I'll walk alone.

> Far away places with strange sounding names
Far away over the sea
Those far away places with the strange sounding names are
Calling
Calling me
Goin' to China or maybe Siam
I wanna see for myself
Those far away places I've been reading about in a
Book that I took from a shelf
I start getting' restless whenever I hear the whistle of a train
I pray for the day I can get underway
And look for those castles in Spain
They call me a dreamer
Well maybe I am
But I know that I'm burning to see those
Far away places with the strange sounding names
Calling, calling me
Me

Skylark
Have you anything to say to me?
Won't you tell me where my love can be?
Is there a meadow in the mist
Where someone's waiting to be kissed?Oh skylark
Have you seen a valley green with spring?
Where my heart can go a journeying
Over the shadows and the rain
To a blossom covered laneAnd in your lonely flight
Haven't you heard the music in the night?
Wonderful music
Faint as a will o' the wisp
Crazy as a loon
Sad as a gypsty serenading the moonOh skylark
I don't know if you can find these things
But my heart is riding on your wings
So if you see them anywhere
Won't you lead me there
Oh skylark
Won't you lead me there?

In a quaint caravan
There's a lady they call The Gypsy
She can look in the future
And drive away all your fears
Everything will come right
If you only believe The Gypsy
She could tell at a glance
That my heart was so full of tears
She looked at my hand and told me
My lover was always true
And yet in my heart I knew, dear
Somebody else was kissing you
But I'll go there again
'Cause I want to believe The Gypsy
That my lover is true
And will come back to me some day

My heart is sad and lonely
For you I sigh, for you dear only
Why haven't you seen it
I'm all for you body and soul

I spend my days in longing
And wondering why it's me you're wronging
I tell you I mean it
I'm all for you body and soul

I can't believe it
It's hard to conceive it
That you'd turn away romance
Are you pretending
It looks like the ending
Unless I could have just one more chance to prove, dear

My life a wreck you're making
You know I'm yours for just the taking
I'd gladly surrender myself to you body and soul

My life a wreck you're making
You know I'm yours for the very taking
I'd gladly surrender myself to you body and soul

You'd be so nice to come home to,
You'd be so nice by the fire,
While the breeze, on high, sang a lullaby,
You'd be all that I could desire.
Under stars, chilled by the winter,
Under an August moon, burning above,
You'd be so nice, you'd be paradise
To come home to and love.

I love those dear hearts and gentle people
who live in my home town
Because those dear hearts and gentle people
will never ever let you down

They read the good book from fri' till monday
that's how the weekend goes
I've got a dream house I'll build there one day
With picket fence and ramblin' rose

I feel so welcome each time that I return
That my happy heart keeps laughin' like a clown
I love the dear hearts and gentle people
who live and love in my home town

There's a place I'd like to go and it's Battern. Idaho.
where your friendly neighbors smile and say 'hello'
It's a pleasure and a treat to meander down the street
That's why I want the whole wide world to know

I love those dear hearts and gentle people
who like in my home town
Because those dear hearts and gentle people
will never ever let you down.

I love you for sentimental reasons
I hope you do believe me
I'll give you my heart

I love you and you alone were meant for me
Please give your loving heart to me
And say we'll never part

I think of you every morning
Dream of you every night
Darling, I'm never lonely
Whenever you are in sight

I love you for sentimental reasons
I hope you do believe me
I've given you my heart

I love you for sentimental reasons
I hope you do believe me
I've given you my heart

There were three little sisters
Three little sisters
Each one only in her teens
One loved a soldier, one loved a sailor, one loved a lad from the marines
Oh the three little sisters
They were the fairest from Iceland to the Philippines
So said the soldier, so said the sailor, so said the lad from the marines

And when the boys marched away
The girls said they'd be true until the boys came back someday

Now three little sisters
Three little sisters
Stay home and read their magazines
Tell it to the soldier, tell it to the sailor, tell it to the marine

And when the boys marched away
The girls said they'd be true 'til the boys came back someday

Now three little sisters
Three little sisters
All stay home and read their magazines
Tell it to the soldier, tell it to the sailor, and tell it to the marine

> I wish I didnt love you so
My love for you
Should have ended long ago

I wish I didnt need your kiss
Why must your kiss
Torture me as long as this

*i might be smiling by now
With some new tender friend
Smiling by now
With my heart on the mend
But when I try
Something in my heart says no
Youre still there
I wish I didnt love you so

(repeat *)

I wish I didnt love you so

My momma done told me
When I was in pigtails
My momma done told me, hon
A man's gonna sweet-talk
And give you the glad eye
But when that sweet-talkin's done
A man is a two-faced, a worrisome thing
Who'll leave you to sing the blues in the nightNow the rain's a fallin'
Hear the trains a-callin' hooey
My momma done told me
Hear that lonesome whistle
Blowing across the trestle, hooey
My momma done tole me, a-hooey, a-hooey
Old clickety clack is echoing back the blues in the nightThe evenin' breeze will start the trees to praying
And the moon will dim its light
When you hear the blues in the nightMark my word the mockingbird
Will sing the saddest kind of song
He knows things are wrong
And he's rightLa ha ha ha-a
La ha ha-a
From Natchez to Mobile
BRFrom Memphis to St. Joe
BRWherever the four winds blow
BRI've been to some big towns
BRI've heard me some big talk
BRBut there is one thing I know
BRA man is a two-faced, a worrisome thing
BRWho'll leave you to sing the blues in the night
BR
BRLa ha ha-a
BRLa ha ha-a
BRMy momma done told me there's blues in the night
BR
