holiday

Post by justwalt » September 7th, 2012, 10:42 am

come rain or come shine, don't worry 'bout me,
day in, day out, I'll be around, as time goes by,
when you’re smiling... on the sentimental side,
all of me, all of you, all or nothing at all, tenderly,

a sailboat in the moonlight, if dreams come true,
a foggy day, a fine romance, it’s not for me to say,
cheek to cheek, for heaven's sake, body and soul,
summertime, a ghost of yesterday... but beautiful,

here it is tomorrow again, I'll never be the same,
everything happens for the best, darn that dream,
time on my hands, no regrets, I can’t pretend,
easy living, easy to love... we’ll be together again,

detour ahead, say it isn’t so, these foolish things,
it had to be you, yours and mine... but not for me,
laughing at life, solitude, farewell to storyville,
I thought about you, deep song, more than you know,

am I blue, glad to be unhappy, I'll be seeing you,
dream of life, any old time, mybe you'll be there,
some other spring, says my heart, don't explain,
did I remember, how am I to know. how could you,

please tell me now, softly. I only have eyes for you,
night and day, I wonder where our love has gone,
just one more chance... just one of those things,
alwsys, it's the same old story, I'm pulling through

for anyone else, everything between the commas is

a song title, belonging to Billie Holiday
