282. Without Your Love

Johnny Lange & Stryker

Without your love
I’m like a song without words
Just like a nest without birds
Without your love

The sun above
Will never shine at my door
My life holds nothing in store
Without your love

I’ve rode the crest of a wave
With you beside me
Now who’s to guide me
Because I’m lost at sea

Without your love
I’m like a plane without wings
A violin with no strings
Without your love

(bridge)

I’ve rode the crest of a wave
With you beside me
Now who’s to guide me
Because I’m lost at sea

Without your love
I’m like a plane without wings
A violin with no strings
Without your love

 

2nd version

Without your love
I’m like a song without words
Just like a nest without birds
Without your love

The sun above
Will never shine at my door
My life holds nothing in store
Without your love

I’ve rode the crest of a wave
With you beside me
Now who’s to guide me
Because I’m lost at sea

Without your love
I’m like a plane without wings
A violin with no strings
Without your love

(bridge)

I’ve rode the crest of a wave
With you beside me
Now who’s to guide me
Because I’m lost at sea

Without your love
I’m like a plane without wings
A violin with no strings
Without your love

281. With Thee I Swing

Basil George Adlam & Alexander Hyde & Stillman

With thee I swing baby
With thee it’s just not dancin’
With thee I cling, baby
Whenever I get a chance

With thee I swing, baby
For thou art so entrancin’
My heart goes bing baby
Whenever we start to dance

With all the others
I’m only marking time
But in your arms I melt away
Like ice cream on a summer’s day
Just one more thing, baby
My life won’t he worthwhile
Till down the middle aisle
With thee I swing, baby

Willow Weep For Me (1932)

lyrics and music by Ann Ronell

(Billie chatting)

Willow weep for me,
Willow weep for me
Bend your branches down
Along the ground and cover me
Listen to my plea
Hear me willow and
Weep for me

Gone my lovely dreams
Lovely summer dreams
Gone and left me here
To weep my tears along the stream
Sad as I can be
Hear me willow and
Weep for me

Whisper to the wind
And say that love has sinned
To leave my heart a sign
And crying alone
Murmur to the night
And hide her starry light
So none will find me sighing
Crying all alone

Weeping willow tree
Weep in sympathy
Bend your branches down
Along the ground and cover me
Listen to me plea
Hear me willow and
Weep for me

Whisper to the wind
And say that love has sinned
To leave my heart a sign
And crying alone
Murmur to the night
And hide her starry light
So none will find me sighing
Crying all alone

Weeping willow tree
Weep in sympathy
Bend your branches down
Along the ground and cover me
Listen to my plea
Hear me willow and
Weep for me

Willow

Willow weep for me,

Bend your branches down

To weep my tears along the stream
Sad as I can be
Hear me willow and
Weep for me

Whisper to the wind
And say that love has sinned
To leave my heart a sign
And crying alone
Murmur to the night
Hide starry light
So none will find me sighing
Crying all alone

Weeping willow tree
Weep in sympathy
Bend your branches down
Along the ground and cover me
Listen to me plea
Hear me willow and
Weep for me

Whisper to the wind
Say that love has sinned
To leave my heart a sign
And crying alone
Murmur to the night
Hide starry light
So none will find me sighing
Crying all alone

Weep in sympathy
Bend your branches down
Along the ground and cover me

279. Why Was I Born? (1929)

lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II

music by Jerome Kern

Why was I born?
Why am I livin’?
What do I get?
What am I givin’?
Why do I want for things
That dare not hope for?
What can I hope for?
I wish I knew
Why do I try
To draw you near me?
Why do I cry?
You never hear me
I’m a poor fool
But what can I do?
Oh baby why was I born
To love you?

from the show Sweet Adeline

278. Why Did I Always Depend On You?

T. McRea & R. Smith & P. Greenwood

Why did I always depend on you
When I knew that you’d end
In another’s arms?
As a rule I’m no fool
But it seems where love’s concerned
There’s no rule for a fool
Who would let his heart be burned

And you intended to fool me too
That’s no lie
And you can’t deny it’s true
From the start in my heart
I knew what you’d do
Why did I depend on you?

(bridge)

And you intended to fool me too
That’s no lie
And you can’t deny it’s true
From the start in my heart
I knew what you’d do
Why did I depend on you?

 

277. Who Wants Love?

Gus Kahn & Franz Waxman

Who wants love?
Love is a joy we borrow
Pay back in tears tomorrow
So who wants love?

Who wants love?
Something to fill your heart with
So very soon to part with
So who wants love?

Love is a dream of weaving
Moonbeams in patterns rare
Love is a child believing
Stories of castles in the air

So who wants love?
I’ll go away without it
I know too much about it
Who wants love?

(bridge)

Love is a dream of weaving
Moonbeams in patterns rare
Love is a child believing
Stories of castles in the air

So who wants love?
I’ll go away without it
I know too much about it
Who wants love?

Who wants love?

 

276. Who Loves You? (1936)

lyrics and music by Benny Davis & J. Fred Coots

Who loves you
Ask yourself the question
Who loves you sweetheart
And tell me who thinks of you
A million times a day
And who’s blue and lonely honey
When you’re away

Say who needs you
Needs you every minute
Who fell for you from the start
Oh who just longs for your caresses
You don’t have to take three guesses
Who loves you sweetheart

2nd version

Who loves you
Ask yourself the question
Who loves you sweetheart
And tell me who thinks of you
A million times a day
And who’s blue and lonely honey
When you’re away

Say who needs you
Needs you every minute
Who fell for you from the start
Oh who just longs for your caresses
You don’t have to take three guesses
Who loves you sweetheart

274. Where Is The Sun?

John Redmond & Lee David

Where is the sun
Oh clouds above me
Where are the birds that used to sing?
Everything’s wrong
Oh where is their song of love?

Where is the one
Who said he loved me
Gone like the flowers he used to bring
Can it be true there’s somebody new to love?

Listen my heart
Don’t feel so bad
Think of the kisses we knew
You know my heart
The moments we had
Maybe he’s missing them too

Where is the sun?
Oh clouds above me
Don’t take the dreams to which I cling
Where is the sun?
Oh where is the one I love?

(bridge)

Listen my heart
Don’t feel so bad
Think of the kisses we knew
You know my heart
The moments we had
Maybe he’s missing them too

Where is the sun?
Oh clouds above me
Don’t take the dreams to which I cling

Where is the sun?
Oh where is the one I love?
