Point Of No Return

Frank Sinatra( 法蘭克辛納區 ) Point Of No Return歌詞
1.When The World Was Young

Lyrics:Johnny Mercer
Music:Philippe Gerard
Arranger:Axel Stordahl

It isn't by chance I happen to be a boulevardier, the toast of
Paree,
For over the noise, the talk and the smoke, I'm good for a
laugh, a drink or a joke,
I walk in a room, a party of all, come sit over here, somebody
will call
A drink for monsieur, a drink for us all, but how many times, I
sat and recall.
Are the apple trees, blossoms in the breeze that we walk among,
Lying in the hay, games we used to play, while the rounds were
sung,
Only yesterday when the world was young.

Wherever I go they mention my name, and that in itself is some
sort of fame,
Come by for a drink, we're having a game, wherever I go, I'm
glad that I came.
The talk is quite gay, the company's fine,
There's laughter and lights and glamour and wine.
And beautiful girls and summer's been mine, but often my eyes
see a different shine.
Are the apple trees, sunlit memories, where the hammock swung,
On our backs sweet lie, looking at the sky, till the stars were
strung
Only last July when the world was young.


2.I'll Remember April


3.September Song

Written:Maxwell Anderson/Kurt Weill
Arranger:Gordon Jenkins


When I was a young man courting the girls
I played me a waiting game
If a maid refused me with tossing curls
I'd let the old Earth make a couple of whirls
While I plied her with tears in lieu of pearls
And as time came around she came my way
As time came around, she came

When you meet with the young girls early in the Spring
You court them in song and rhyme
They answer with words and a clover ring
But if you could examine the goods they bring
They have little to offer but the songs they sing
And the plentiful waste of time of day
A plentiful waste of time

Oh, it's a long, long while from May to December
But the days grow short when you reach September
When the autumn weather turns the leaves to flame
One hasn't got time for the waiting game

Oh, the days dwindle down to a precious few
September, November
And these few precious days I'll spend with you
These precious days I'll spend with you


4.A Million Dreams Ago


5.I'll See You Again


6.There Will Never Be Another You


7.Somewhere Along The Way


8.It's A Blue World


9.These Foolish Things Remind Me Of You


10.As Time Goes By

You must remember this
A kiss is still a kiss
A sigh is just a sigh
The fundamental things apply as time goes by

And when two lovers woo
They still say 'I love you'
On that you can rely
No matter what the future brings, as time goes by

Moonlight and love songs never out of date
Hearts full of passion, jealousy, and hate
Woman needs man, and man must have his mate
That no one can deny

It's still the same old story
A fight for love and glory
A case of do or die
The world will always welcome lovers as time goes by


11.I'll Be Seing You


12.Memories Of You

Lyrics:Andy Razaf
Music:Eubie Blake
Arranger:Nelson Riddle

Waking skies at sunrise, every sunset, too,
Seems to be bringing me memories of you.
Here and there, everywhere - scenes that we once knew,
And they all just recall memories of you.
How I wish I could forget those happy yesteryears
That have left a rosary of tears.

Your face beams in my dreams, 'spite of all I do.
Everything seems to bring memories of you.
How I wish I could forget those, those happy yesteryears
That have left a rosary of tears.
Your face beams in my dreams, 'spite of all I do, and
Everything seems to bring memories of you.


13.Day In-Day Out(Ballad Version)

Lyrics:Johnny Mercer
Music:Rube Bloom
Arranger:Neal Hefti/Billy May

Day in - day out
That same old voodoo follows me about
That same old pounding in my heart, whenever I think of you
And baby I think of you
Day in and day out

Day out - day in
I needn't tell you how my days begin
When I awake I get up with a tingle
One possibility in view
That possibility of maybe seeing you

Come rain - come shine
I meet you and to me the day is fine
Then I kiss your lips, and the pounding becomes
An oceans roar, a thousand drums
Can't you see it's love, can there be any doubt
When there it is, day in - day out


14.Don't Make A Beggar Of Me


15.Lean Baby

Lyrics:Roy Alfred/Billy May
Music:Billy May
Arranger:Heinie Beau

My lean baby - tall and thin
Five feet seven - of bones and skin
But when she tells me maybe she loves me
I feel as mellow as a fellow can be

She's so skinny - she's so drawn
When she stands sideways - you (would) think (that) she's gone
But when she calls me: 'baby' - I feel fine
To think she's frantically, romantically mine

She's slender, but she's tender
She makes my heart surrender
And every night, when I hold her tight
The feeling is nice - my arms can go around twice

My lean baby - she's so slim
A broomstick's wider - but not as trim
And when she starts to kiss me - then I know
I love her so, I'll never, ever, let her go

My lean baby - strange to see
And all that nothing - it belongs to me
And though she may be scrawny - she's OK
Because I wouldn't want her any other way

She's so skinny - she's so drawn
When she stands sideways - you (would) think (that) she's gone
But when she calls me: 'baby' - I feel fine
To think she's frantically, romantically mine

I chased her - and I caught her
Then a diamond ring - I bought her
(Hey) The diamonds shine - the ring is so fine
But here is the twist - she wears it right on her wrist

My lean baby - she's so slim
A broomstick's wider - but not as trim
And when she starts to kiss me - then I know
I love her so, I'll never, ever, let her go

My lean baby - tall and thin...
(do-do-do-do-do,...)


16.I'm Walking Behind You

Lyrics:Billy Reid
Music:Billy Reid
Arranger:Axel Stordahl

I'm walking behind you - on your wedding day
And I'll here you promise - to love and obey
Though you may forget me - you're still on my mind
Look over your shoulder - I'm walking behind

Maybe I'll kiss again - with a love that's new again
But I shall wish again - I was kissing you

'Cause I'll always love you - where ever you go
And though we are parted - I want you to know
That if things go wrong dear - and fate is unkind
Look over your shoulder - I'm walking behind
