Henry Mancini - The Days of Wine And Roses (1995) by Henry Mancini (보컬) on maniadb.com

Every night your line is busy
All that buzzin' makes me dizzy
Couldn't count on all my fingers
All the dates you had with swingers

Bye, bye, bye, baby
I'm gonna kiss you goodbye and go right through that doorway
So long, I'm leaving
This is the last time we'll meet on the street going your way

Don't look surprised, you know you've buttered your bread
So now it's fair, you should stare at the back of my head
If you write a letter to me
My former friend, don't you end with an R.S.V.P.

I'm going bye, bye, I'm moving
Tomorrow I may be splittin' to Britain or Norway
I'm saying bye, bye, bye baby
Now that I heard all that jazzing whereas I have had it, I've had it

I'm through now with you now
So baby it's au revouir
Adios, ciao, ciao, goodbye

I'm in Dreamsville, holding you
A dreamy view, just we two alone
If love in Dreamsville, time is new
We're here to love and we do

We can see the rest of the world
Below us from our pink cloud

There's no boundary to this magic land
As we go exploring hand in hand
In dreamy Dreamsville
Far away and here we love
Here we stay

There's no boundary to this magic land
As we go exploring hand in hand
In dreamy Dreamsville
Far away and here we love
Here we stay

Make believe you're in a jungle movie.
Watch the baby elephants go by.
The beat is groovy.
It's a brand new dance you ought to try,
Come to the jungle and see the animal attraction,
Baby elephants in action walk.

See the big baboon beat on the bongo
As the baby elephants advance.
Down in the Congo,
All the swinging monkeys do this dance,

Come to the jungle and see the animal attraction.
Baby elephants in action walk.

If you plan on joining a safari,
Don't get dressed for going on a cruise.
The thing to carry is an extra pair of dancing shoes.
Come to the jungle and see the animal attraction.
Baby elephants in action walk.

If you're feeling fancy free,
Come wander through the world with me,
And any place we chance to be,
Will be a rendezvous.

Two for the road,
We'll travel through the years,
Collecting precious memories,
Selecting souvenirs
And living life the way we please.

In the summertime the sun will shine,
In winter we will drink summer wine,
And any day that you are mine,
Will be a lovely day.

As long as love still wears a smile,
I know that we'll be two for the road,
And that's a long long while.

The days of wine and roses laugh and run away like a child at play
Through a meadow land toward a closing door
A door marked "nevermore" that wasn't there before

The lonely night discloses just a passing breeze filled with memories
Of the golden smile that introduced me to
The days of wine and roses and you


(The lonely night discloses) just a passing breeze filled with memories
Of the golden smile that introduced me to
The days of wine and roses and you-oo-oo

When we played our charade
We were like children posing
Playing at games, acting out names
Guessing the parts we played

Oh what a hit we made
We came on next to closing
Best on the bill, lovers until
Love left the masquerade

Fate seemed to pull the strings


I turned and you were gone
While from the darkened wings
The music box played on

Sad little serenade
Song of my heart's composing
I hear it still, I always will
Best on the bill
Charade

Nothing to lose if we are wise
We're not expecting rainbow colored skies
Not right away

Nothing to lose, it might be fun
No talk of spending lifetimes in the sun
Although we may

Both you and I have seen what love can do
We'll only hurt ourselves
If we build dreams that don't come true

What can we lose, we know the score
Let's wait before we talk of evermore
One day we may

Nothing to lose
But much to gain if love decides to stay

Nothing to lose, nothing to lose
Nothing to lose, nothing to lose

Meglio stasera, baby, go, go, go
Or as we natives say, "Fa subito!"

If you're ever gonna kiss me
It had better be tonight
While the mandolins are playing
And stars are bright

If you've anything to tell me
It had better be tonight
Or somebody else may tell me
And whisper the words just right

Meglio stasera, baby, go, go, go
Or as we natives say, "Fa subito!"

If you're ever gonna hold me
It had better be tonight
Or somebody else may hold me
And they might make me feel just right

Meglio stasera, baby, go, go, go
Or as we natives say, "Fa subito!"

For this poor Americano
Who knows little of your speech
Be a nice Italiano
And start to teach

Show me how in old Milano
Lovers hold each other, oh so tight
But I warn you, sweet paesano
But it had better be tonight

Meglio stasera, baby, go, go, go
Or as we natives say, "Fa subito!"

Dear heart, wish you were here
To warm this night
My dear heart, it seems like a year
Since you've been out of my sight

A single room, a table for one
It's a lonesome town all right
But soon I'll kiss you hello
At our front door

And dear heart, I want you to know
I'll leave your arms never more

But soon I'll kiss you hello
At our front door

And dear heart, I want you to know
I'll leave your arms never more

Often I think this sad, old world
Is whistling in the dark
Just like a child, who, late from school
Walks bravely home through the park
To keep their spirits soaring
And keep the night at bay
Neither quite knowing which way they are going
They sing the shadows away

Often I think my poor, old heart
Has given up for good
And then I see a brave new face
I glimpse some new neighborhood
So walk me back home, my darling
Tell me dreams really come true
Whistling, whistling, here in the dark with you
Whistling, whistling, here in the dark with you

All the homies they know what I mean
Baby let me show you how I lean
(Like a cholo)
Lay back, bounce in the club
When we do a dance, yeah we do it like what?
Like a, like a cholo

Side to side
Elbows up, side to side
Elbows up, side to side
Elbows up, side to side
Like a cholo

All up in the club, ten deep
Lookin' for some hyenas, we on the creep
I need a bad one, a real freak
Find them at the dance floor, so don't sleep

Damn, I like you, I like you
But a really want her
She?s that type, I can tell
Let me get in too deep
Take her back to the hotel

But right now I'm on the move
Show this little momma how a gangsta groove
I don't do a whole lot, just enough
Lean side to side, keep my elbows up

Like this and like that
All the girls know where the real G's at
You could find us way up in the back
Watching that ass bounce like a low low
I lean like a cholo

Side to side
Elbows up, side to side
Elbows up, side to side
Elbows up, side to side
I lean like a cholo

Side to side
Elbows up, side to side
Elbows up, side to side
Elbows up, side to side
Like a cholo

I'm brown, I get down
The girls love how I lean
Like a G to the beat
Blue and white MJ's on my feet

I'm lookin? real good, I'm so hood
Gotta stay clean if you know what I mean
Pockets full of feria, mucho dinero
Look me in my eyes, tell me, ?Papi, te quiero?

Let me do my dance, you do yours
Shaking what you got 'til you?re sweating out your pours
Just like that, yeah I like that
I?m a perro tryin' to chase that cat

Hey DJ won't you play that same track?
Wind it back, I can lean to that
Now she wants me
And I ain?t going home solo
?Cause I lean like a cholo

Side to side
Elbows up, side to side
Elbows up, side to side
Elbows up, side to side
I lean like a cholo

Side to side
Elbows up, side to side
Elbows up, side to side
Elbows up, side to side
Like a cholo

All the homies they know what I mean
Baby let me show you how I lean
(Like a cholo)
Lay back, bounce in the club
When we do a dance, yeah we do it like what?
(Like a cholo)

All the homies they know what I mean
Baby let me show you how I lean
(Like a cholo)
Lay back, bounce in the club
When we do a dance, yeah we do it like what?
Like a, like a cholo

Side to side
Elbows up, side to side
Elbows up, side to side
Elbows up, side to side
I lean like a cholo

Side to side
Elbows up, side to side
Elbows up, side to side
Elbows up, side to side
I lean like a cholo

Side to side
Elbows up, side to side
Elbows up, side to side
Elbows up, side to side
I lean like a cholo

Side to side
Elbows up, side to side
Elbows up, side to side
F-f-fingers on the track

They say there's a tree in the forest
A tree that will give you a sign
Come along with me to the Sweetheart Tree
Come and carve your name next to mine

They say if you kiss the right sweetheart
The one you've been waiting for
Big blossoms of white will burst into sight
And your love will be true evermore

Moon river, wider than a mile
I'm crossing you in style some day
Oh dream maker, you heart breaker
Wherever you're going, I'm going your way

Two drifters off to see the world
There's such a lot of world to see
We're after the same rainbow's end
Waiting 'round the bend, my huckleberry friend
Moon river and me

If I could hold you in the arms of love tonight
Then I'd never let you go
As the hours go by I'd show you why we've waited for this
As two lovers whisper low

If I could feel that magic kiss your lips invite
Imagine the joys I'd know
The day has died away, let's find a hideaway
And share the promise of a new tomorrow
In the arms of love tonight

The day has died away, let's find a hideaway
And share the promise of a new tomorrow
In the arms of love tonight
