Billie Holiday - Darn That Dream Lyrics

Billie Holiday - Darn That Dream Video

Darn that dream

I dream each night

You say you love me and hold me tight

But when I awake and you're out of sight

Oh, darn that dream

 

Darn your lips and darn your eyes

They lift me high above the moonlit sky

Then I tumble out of paradise

Oh, darn that dream

 

Darn that one track mind of mine

It can't understand that you don't care

Just to change the mood I'm in

I'd welcome a nice old nightmare

 

Darn that dream

And bless it too

Without that dream I never have you

But it haunts me and it won't come true

 

Oh, darn that dream

Billie Holiday - Say It With A Kiss Lyrics

Billie Holiday - Say It With A Kiss Video

Let me hear you say it

Say it with a kiss

It you mean that look I've seen

Say it with a kiss

There is wine and candle shine

And music in your lips

Music in the tops

Of your fingertips

 

Words may not convey it

Say it with a kiss

And your look might speak a book

That my eyes might miss

You don't have to know the words

To love's familiar tune

Say it with a kiss

And say it soon

Billie Holiday - The Very Thought Of You Lyrics

Billie Holiday - The Very Thought Of You Video

The very thought of you

And I forget to do

Those little ordinary things

That everyone ought to do

I'm living in a kind of daydream

I'm happy as a queen

And foolish though it may seem

To me that's everything

 

The mere idea of you

The longing here for you

You never know how slow the moments go

Till I'm near to you

I see your face in every flower

Your eyes in stars above

It's just the thought of you

The very thought of you, my love

 

I see your face in every flower

Your eyes in stars above

It's just the thought of you

The very thought of you, my love
