(how many teardrops)
have i cried over you
a million and one tears
a million and two
(how many lonely nights)
have my arms ached for you
a million and one nights
a million and two
loving you darlin’
while i thought you loved me, only me
but you were just fooling
and the fool you were fooling was me
how many sweet dreams
will never come true
a million and one dreams
a million and two
(loving you darlin’
while i thought you loved me, only me)
but you were just fooling
and the fool you were fooling was me
(how many sweet dreams)
will never come true
a million and one dreams
a million and two
a million and one dreams
a million and two
a place in the shade

now some folks play the whole day long
they think they got it made
but they won’t get a thrill the way that i live
when i find me a place in the shade
a poor man word is never learned still i wouldn’t trade
all the world and its gold all the treasures untold
i want a little place in the shade
too late to bed and early to rise
makes a man weary and cuts him down the size
they come and they go and their worlds fall apart
but i’m gonna cling to the dreams in my heart
cause someday i know the years gonna come
when all my debts are paid
when my work is all done i’ll smile at the sun
and find me a place in the shade
when the work is all done i’ll smile at the sun
and find me a place in the shade
(with jerry lewis)
there’s a song in the air
but the fair signorina really doesn’t care
for that song in the air
so i’ll sing to the mule
if you’re sure she won’t think that i am just a fool
serenading a mule
and try as she may in a voice is a flower
all the lady can say
(jl) unintelligible
(both) you’re the one for me
i never will forget the station where we met
you dropped your skis a happy circumstance
no one would have guessed we had started
started a winter romance
and all the way to maine
on that enchanted train
the passing scenery didn’t get a glance
we held hands completely light hearted
off to a winter romance
we danced that night by candle light
the world was white with snow
the way we felt we never felt
the snow could melt and go
but though the snow is gone the romance lingers on
and those that said it didn’t stand a chance
will know when they see us together
that love’s not been controlled by the weather
and all of our summers we’ll have our winter romance
(though the snow is gone the romance lingers on)
(and those that said it didn’t stand a chance)
will know when they see us together
that love’s not been controlled by the weather
and all of our summers we’ll have our winter romance
the stars are gonna twinkle and shine
this evening about a quarter to nine
my loving arms are gonna tenderly twine twee twee twine
around you around a quarter to nine
i know i won’t be late ’cause at half past eight
i’m gonna hurry there
i’ll be waiting where the lane begins
waiting for you on needles and pins
and then the world is gonna be mine oh all mine
this evening about a quarter to nine
then the world is gonna be mine
this evening about a quarter to nine
