Roy Orbison Album

A candy-colored clown they call the sandman
Tiptoes to my room every night
Just to sprinkle stardust and to whisper
"Go to sleep. Everything is all right."

I close my eyes, Then I drift away
Into the magic night. I softly say
A silent prayer like dreamers do.
Then I fall asleep to dream My dreams of you.

In dreams I walk with you. In dreams I talk to you.
In dreams you're mine. All of the time we're together
In dreams, In dreams.

But just before the dawn, I awake and find you gone.
I can't help it, I can't help it, if I cry.
I remember that you said goodbye.

It's too bad that all these things, Can only happen in my dreams
Only in dreams In beautiful dreams.

Kitty Wells

The night is bright and gay but I'm so blue
my heart must have it's way and dream of you
that's why I sigh and sip my lonely wine

Your picture on the wall your smiling face
brings back the memory of your embrace
I start to cry into my lonely wine

Teardrops fall but all they bring is heartache
It's better if I never think at all
Still they soothe the pain my lonely thoughts make
I never quite succeed in hiding all, so let them fall

Where ever you may be, I'll still be true
and when the clouds roll by I'll come to you
but until then I'll drink my lonely wine

Key Change-Repeat Where ever you may be etc.

Where the Nile flows
And the moon glows
On the silent sand
Of an ancient land

When a dream dies
And a heart cries
Shahdaroba
Is the word they whisper alone

Shahdaroba, Shahdaroba
Means the future is much better than the past
Shahdaroba, Shahdaroba
In the future you will find a love that lasts

So when tears flow
And you don't know
What on earth to do
And your world is blue

When your dream dies
And your heart cries
Shahdaroba
Fate knows what's best for you

Shahdaroba, Shahdaroba
Face the future and forget about the past
Shahdaroba, Shahdaroba
In the future you will find a love that lasts

Shahdaroba

Fred Rose/Mel Foree


No one will ever know my heart is breaking although a million teardrops start
to flow
I'll cry myself to sleep and wake up smiling I'll miss you but no one will ever
know
I'll tell them we grew tired of each other and realized our dreams could never
be
I'll even make believe I never loved you then no one will ever know the truth
but me

No one will ever know how much I'm pining
Each time the past comes back to haunt me so
No one will ever see the tears I'm hiding
Yes you've hurt me but no one will ever know
I'll tell them I've found true love with another
And that I was glad the day you set me free
I'll even make believe I never loved you then no one will ever know the truth
but me

Orbison/Melson

I see her when the sun is high
The clouds write her name across the sky
But, the boss man is giving me the eye
I'd better go to work, but I'll see her by and by

At sunset I'm gonna see my sweetheart
Gonna hold her so tight
At sunset I'm gonna see my baby
My baby tonight

I see the shadows on the run
I see the setting of the sun
At last my working day is done
The setting of the sun has finally come

It's sunset I'm gonna see my sweetheart
Gonna hold her so tight
It's sunset I'm gonna see my baby
My baby tonight

I see her in the twighlight standing there
The wind softly stirring in her hair
The sweetest fruit the earth can bear
So young so warm and so rare

It's sunset, at last I'm with my sweetheart
I'm holding her tight
It's sunset and now I'm with my baby
And she is mine tonight

I'm gonna move into
A house without windows
So I won't see you walking by, walking by
With your new love

There in the darkness of
My house without windows
I will never see the stars that shine
Shine on you, and your new love

I'd rather wonder through this endless night
Than to face the light of another lonely day
Knowing that you won't be there
There to share, these two arms ever again

I'll take all my broken dreams
And I'll take my broken heart
And from now on you will find me there
Crying there, trying to forget
In my house without windows
In my house without windows
And without love.

(Johnny mercer)

Dream,When you're feeling blue
Dream,That's the thing to do
Just watch the smoke rings rise in the air
You'll find your share of memories there

So dream, When the day is through
Dream, And they might come true
Things never are as bad as they seem
So dream, Dream dream

Dream, When the day is through
Dream,0And they might come true
Things never are as bad as they seem
So dream, Dream dream

I feel so bad I've got a worried mind
I'm so lonesome all the time
Since I left my baby behind on Blue Bayou

Saving nickels, saving dimes, working 'till the sun don't shine
Looking forward to happier times on Blue Bayou
I'm going back some day come what may to Blue Bayou
Where you sleep all day and the catfish play on Blue Bayou

All those fishing boats with their sails afloat If I could only see
That familiar sunrise through sleepy eyes, how happy I'd be

Go to see my baby again
And to be with some of my friends
Maybe I'd be happy then on Blue Bayou

I'm going back some day, gonna stay on Blue Bayou
Where the folks are fine and the world is mine on Blue Bayou
Oh, that girl of mine by my side the silver moon and the evening tide
Oh, some sweet day gonna take away this hurtin' inside
I'll never be blue, my dreams come true on Blue Bayou

Oh, they call you Gigolette,they say that you're the Devil's pet.
They say beware for you destroy,the heart and soul of everyboy.

They say that your lips are soft and warm.and they say that your touch has a magic charm
But that you're a butterfly flying from guy to guy.

Yes you're known as Gigolette,oh love and them and leave them Gigolette,
They say you're laugh when lovers cry they say it's a kiss and then goodbye.

They say that your heart is made of stone and they say stay away leave you alone.


Ah, that you're a fly by night many arms to hold you tight.

But it's too late for me.too late now to forget,I'm under the spell of Gigolette.
*My chance to run away is past, I'm in your arms at last.

So come on and hold me.oh hold me close to you.
oh kiss me,don't break my heart in two.

Tomorrow you're may be ot of sight, but tonight,tonight,tonight love me Gigolette.

When I want you in my arms
When I want you and all your charms
Whenever I want you all I have to do is dream
Dream, dream, dream

When I feel blue in the night
And I want you to hold me tight
Whenever I want you all I have to do
Is dream

I can make you mine
Taste your lip of wine
Any time night or day
Only trouble is gee whiz
I'm dreamin' my life away

I need you so that I could die
I love you so and that is why
Whenever I want you all I have to do is dream
Dream, dream, dream, dream, dream, dream
Whenever I want you all I have to do is dream

I need you so that I could die
I love you so and that is why
Whenever I want you all I have to do is dream
Dream, dream, dream, dream, dream, dream
Whenever I want you all I have to do is dream

Dream, dream
Dream, dream

Beautiful dreamer, wake unto me,
starlight and dewdrops are awaiting thee.
Sounds of the rude world heard in the day,
led by the moonlight have all passed away.

Beautiful dreamer, queen of my song,
list while I woo the with soft melody.
Gone are the cares of life's busy throng,

Beautiful dreamer awake unto me.
Beautiful dreamer awake unto me!

Beautiful Dreamer, out on the sea,
Mermaids are chaunting the wild lorelei,
Over the streamlet vapors are borne,
Waiting to fade at the bright coming morn.

Beautiful Dreamer, beam on my heart,
E'en as the morn on the streamlet and sea,
Then will all clouds of sorrow depart,

Beautiful Dreamer, awake unto me,
Beautiful Dreamer, awake unto me!

Words and Music by Jimmy Kennedy and Georges Boulanger

When the twilight is gone and no songbirds are singing
When the twilight is gone you come into my heart
And here in my heart you will stay while I pray

My prayer is to linger with you
At the end of the day in a dream that's divine
My prayer is a rapture in blue
With the world far away and your lips close to mine

Tonight while our hearts are aglow
Oh tell me the words that I'm longing to know

My prayer and the answer you give
May they still be the same for as long as we live
That you'll always be there at the end of my prayer

I'm falling, I'm falling
Falling in love with you

Baby, Come closer closer to me, And listen listen so carefully
Remember all the nights that I told you that I loved you
It wasn't true, I used you, And you were just someone new

To thrill this lonely heart of mine
I was lying all the time
Pretending to be falling in love with you
But it's different now, I've kissed you now
So forgive me forgive me somehow

Hold me tight for tonight, Then tell me truth
If you still love me, Say that you love me
Don't leave me now

Now that I'm falling for you
I'm falling, I'm falling
Falling in love, Falling in love with you

I hear the sound of distant drums
Far away, Far away
And if they call for me to come
Then I must go and you must stay

So Mary marry me, let's not wait
Let's share all the time we can
Before it's too late
And love me now
For now is all the time there may be
And if you love me Mary, Mary marry me

I hear the sound of bugles blow
Far away, far away
And if they call then I must go
Who knows where or who can say?

So Mary marry me, let's not wait
For those distant drums
Might change our wedding day
And love me now
For now is all the time there may be
And if you love me Mary, Mary marry me
Yes if you love me Mary, Mary marry me

(The pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue)

Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue
Wrap your presents to your darling from you
Pretty pencils to write I love you
Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue

Crowded street, busy feet, hustle by him
Downtown shoppers, Christmas is nigh
There he sits all alone on the sidewalk
Hoping that you won't pass him by

Should you stop? Better not, much too busy
You're in a hurry, my how time does fly
In the distance the ringing of laughter
And in the midst of the laughter he cries

Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue
Wrap your presents to your darling from you
Pretty pencils to write I love you
Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue
