True Love: A Celebration Of Cole Porter (2019)












Anything Goes lyrics - Harry Connick Jr

In olden days, a glimpse of stocking
Was looked on as something shocking
But now God knows, anything goes
Good authors too who once knew better words
Now only use four-letter words
Writing prose
Anything goes

The world has gone mad today
And good's bad today
And black's white today
And day's night today
When most guys today that women prize today
Are just silly gigolos

And though I'm not a great romancer
I know that I'm bound to answer when you propose
Anything goes

Well, when grand mama, whose age is eighty
In night clubs is getting matey with gigolos
Anything goes
When mothers pack and leave poor father
Because they decide they'd rather be tennis pros
Anything goes

Just think of those shocks you've got
And those knocks you've got
From those boos you've got
From those moves you've got
And those pains you've got
If any brains you've got
From those little radios

When every night
The set that's smart
Is intruding in nudist parties in studios
Anything goes

Well, the world has gone mad today
And good's bad today
And black's white today
And day's night today
And that gent today
You gave a cent today
Once had several chateaux

And though I'm not a great romancer
I know that I'm bound to answer when you propose
Oh, anything goes
I mean anything, man, anything goes

I Love Paris lyrics - Harry Connick Jr

I love Paris in the spring time
I love Paris in the fall
I love Paris in the winter when it drizzles
I love Paris in the summer when it sizzles

I love Paris every moment
Every moment of the year
I love Paris, why-oh-why do I love Paris?
Because my love is near

I love Paris every moment, yes
Every moment of the year
Oh baby, I love Paris, why-oh-why do I love Paris?
Because my love
Hey, because my love
Ooh, because my love
Hey, because my love
Ooh, because my love is near

I Concentrate On You lyrics - Harry Connick Jr

Whenever skies look gray to me
And trouble begins to brew
Whenever the winter winds become too strong
I concentrate on you

When fortune cries, "Nay, nay" to me
And people declare, "You're through"
Whenever the blues become my only song
I concentrate on you

On your smile, so sweet, so tender
When at first, my kiss you decline
On the light in your eyes when you surrender
And once again our arms intertwine

And so when wise men say to me
That love's young dream never comes true
To prove that even wise men can be wrong
I concentrate on you

Your smile, so sweet, so tender
When at first, my kiss you decline
On the light in your eyes when you surrender
And once again our arms intertwine

And so when wise men say to me
That love's young dream never comes true
Well, just to prove that even wise men can be wrong
I concentrate on you

All Of You lyrics - Harry Connick Jr

I love the look of you, the lure of you
I'd love to make a tour of you
The eyes, the arms, the mouth of you
The east, west, north and the south of you

I'd love to gain complete control of you
And handle even the heart and soul of you
So love, at least, a small percent of me, do
For I love all of you

I'd love to gain complete control of you
And handle even the heart and soul of you
So love, at least, a small percent of me, do
For I love all of you, for I love all of you

Mind If I Make Love To You lyrics - Harry Connick Jr

In the heavens, stars are dancing
And the mounting moon is new
What a rare night for romancing
Mind if I make love to you?

Since the dear day of our meeting
I've wanted to tell you all I long to do
Dawn is nearing, time is fleeting
Mind if I make love to you?

If you'll let me, I'll endeavour
To persuade you I'm your party for two
And from then on you will never
Mind if I make love to you

Baby, if you'll let me, I'm going to endeavour
To persuade you I'm your party for two
And from then on you will never
Mind if I make love to you
And from then on you will never
Mind if I make love to you

Just One Of Those Things lyrics - Harry Connick Jr

It was just one of those things
Just one of those crazy flings
One of those bells that now and then rings
Just one of those things

It was just one of those nights
Just one of those fabulous flights
A trip to the moon on gossamer wings
Just one of those things

If we'd thought a bit
Of the end of it
When we started painting the town
We'd have been aware
That our love affair
Was too hot not to cool down

So good-bye, dear, and amen
Here's hoping we meet now and then
It was great fun
But it was just one of those things

In The Still Of The Night lyrics - Harry Connick Jr

In the still of the night
As I gaze from my window
At the moon in its flight
My thoughts all stray to you

In the still of the night
All the world is in slumber
All the times without number
Darling, when I say to you

Do you love me as I love you?
Are you my life to be, my dream come true?
Or will this dream of mine fade out of sight
Like the moon growing dim, on the rim of the hill
In the chill, still, of the night

Do you love me as I love you?
Are you my life to be, my dream come true?
Or will this dream of mine fade out of sight
Like the moon growing dim, on the rim of the hill
In the chill, still, of the night

Why Can't You Behave lyrics - Harry Connick Jr

Why can't you behave?
Oh, why can't you behave?
After all the things you told me
And the promises that you gave
Oh, why can't you behave?

Oh, why can't you be good?
And do just as you should
Won't you turn that new leaf over
So your baby can be your slave?
Oh, why can't you behave?

There's a farm I know near my old hometown
Where we two can go and try settlin' down, yeah
There I'll care for you forever
Well, at least till you dig my grave
Why can't you behave?

Settle down and behave

Begin The Beguine lyrics - Harry Connick Jr

(Instrumental)

You'd Be So Nice To Come Home To lyrics - Harry Connick Jr

You'd be so nice to come home to
You'd be so nice by the fire
While the breeze, on high, sang a lullaby
You'd be all my heart could desire

Under stars chilled by the winter
Under an August moon shining above
You'd be so nice, you'd be paradise
To come home to and love

You'd be so nice to come home to
You'd be so nice by the fire
While the breeze, on high, sang a lullaby
You'd be all that I could desire

Under stars chilled by the winter
Under an August moon shining above
You'd be so nice, you'd be paradise
To come home to
To come home to
To come home to and love

True Love lyrics - Harry Connick Jr

(originally by Cole Porter)

I give to you and you give to me
True love, true love
So on and on it will always be
True love, true love

For you and I have a guardian angel
On high, with nothing to do
But to give to you and to give to me
Love forever true

For you and I have a guardian angel
On high, with nothing to do
But to give to you and to give to me
Love forever true

For you and I have a guardian angel
On high, with nothing to do
But to give to you and to give to me
Love forever true

You're Sensational lyrics - Harry Connick Jr

I've no proof when people say
You're more or less aloof
But you're sensational
I don't care if you are called
"The Fair Miss Frigidaire"
'Cause you're sensational

Making love is quite an art
What you require
Is the proper squire
To fire your heart

And if you say
That one fine day
You'll let me come to call
We'll have a ball
'Cause you're sensational, sensational
That's all

And if you say
That one fine day
You'll let me come to call
We'll have a ball
'Cause you're sensational
Girl, you're just sensational
'Cause you're sensational, sensational
That's all

You Do Something To Me lyrics - Harry Connick Jr

You do something to me
Something that simply mystifies me
Tell me, why should it be?
You have the power to hypnotize me
Let me live 'neath your spell
Do do that voodoo that you do so well
For you do something to me
That nobody else can do

Let me live 'neath your spell
Do do that voodoo that you do so well
For you do something to me
That nobody else can do
That nobody else can do
That nobody else can do

Bourbon Street Parade lyrics - Harry Connick Jr

Let's drive down or fly down
To New Orleans
That city, so pretty
Historic scenes (Way on down in New Orleans)
And I'll take you, parade you
Down Bourbon Street
Oh, we'll see all the hot spots
We'll meet all those big shots
Down on Bourbon Street
Yes, let's drive down, maybe we'll fly down
To New Orleans
Yeah, that city, sure is pretty
Historic scenes (Way on down in New Orleans)
And I'll take you, maybe I'll parade you
Down Bourbon Street
Oh, we'll see all the hot spots
We'll meet all those big shots
Down on Bourbon Street

Make It Merry lyrics - Harry Connick Jr

What are the chances you'll be here
To spend your Christmas home this year?
With all my heart I ask you, dear
Please, make it merry

What are the chances you'll be free
To spend your Christmas here with me?
There's nowhere else that you should be
Please, make it merry

If you would
Odds are good
Christmas will be bright
If you won't
Then I don't
Think I'll be alright

What are the chances you'll decide
To not just call and say you tried?
That would leave me teary-eyed
Please, make it merry
Please, make it merry

Mmm, if you would (If you would)
Odds are good (Odds are good)
Christmas will be bright (Christmas will be bright, yeah)
If you won't (If you won't)
Then I don't (Then I don't)
Think I'll be alright, oh

What are the chances you would choose
To grin and bear some better news
And chase away my Christmas blues, yeah?
Please, make it merry (Please, make it merry, babe)
Please, make it merry (Say it again, yeah)

Please, make it merry (Please, make it merry, baby)
Please, make it merry (Mmm, have a merry Christmas)
Please, make it merry (Hey)
Please, make it merry (Please, make it merry, baby, yeah)
Please, make it merry (Please)
Please, make it merry

Mardi Gras In New Orleans lyrics - Harry Connick Jr

Go to New Orleans
You gotta go see the Mardi Gras
When you go to New Orleans
You gotta go see the Mardi Gras
If you see that Mardi Gras
Somebody gonna show you what carnival for

You can see the Zulu King
Down on Saint Claude and Dumaine
You can see the Zulu King
Down on Saint Claude and Dumaine
If you see the Zulu King
You might even see the Zulu Queen

My Love lyrics - Harry Connick Jr

(originally by Paul McCartney & Wings)

And when I go away
I know my heart can stay with my love
It's understood, it's in the hands of my love
And my love does it good

Wo, wo-wo, wo
Wo, wo-wo, wo
My love does it good

And when the cupboard's bare
I'll still find something there with my love
It's understood, it's everywhere with my love
And my love does it good

Wo, wo-wo, wo
Wo, wo-wo, wo
My love does it good

Oh, I love, oh, my love
Only my love holds the other key to me
Oh, my love, oh, my love
Only my love does it good to me

Wo, wo-wo, wo
Wo, wo-wo, wo
My love does it good

Don't ever ask me why
I never say goodbye to my love
It's understood, it's everywhere with my love
And my love, she does it good

Wo, wo-wo, wo
Wo, wo-wo, wo
Wo, wo-wo, wo
Wo, wo-wo, wo
My love does it good

Oh, I love, oh, my love
Only my love does it good to me

Wo, wo-wo, wo
Wo, wo-wo, wo

On This Christmas Morning lyrics - Harry Connick Jr

On this Christmas morning
My sorrows fall behind me
This day will remind me
Of your promise of love

The clouds are all parting
A light of hope is shining
And each silver lining
Brings your promise of love

And I pray that you'll guide me
I am at peace when you walk beside me
Please, God, provide me
Peace, hope and love

I know there's an angel
For every star above me
Singing you love me
On this Christmas morn

And I pray that you'll guide me
I am at peace when you walk beside me
Please, God, provide me
Peace, hope and love

I know there's an angel
For every star above me
Singing you love me
On this Christmas morn

Papa Noel lyrics - Harry Connick Jr

That sound like Christmas in Louisiana, y'all
Come on up here and get you some
Now

Hey Beau, let's go and get pirogue and push-pole down the bayou
I want to see the Christmas tree, dance-o fais dodo
Have a big time and cut a shine where all will be gay-o
Oh, Santa Claus will come tonight down on the bayou

Papa Noël will bring the bells and all will be gay-o
I'm gonna be at the Christmas tree with my ma chère amie-o
So ring the chimes, it's Christmas time, pick up that old banjo
Santa Claus will come tonight down on the bayou

Hey
Oh
Sure feels good

See ma Mannan and ma Parrain, I know they'll all be there-o
See ol' Quelqu'un and Mamoun, Bébé and Jo-Jo
See Jolivet, that's my sweet pet, I'ma get me some sugar
Oh, Santa Claus will come tonight down on the bayou

So roll the rug, let's kiss and hug and let's all be gay-o
A merry Christmas to you all and a happy bonne année-o
I'm gonna dance all through the night 'til daylight with my babe-o
Oh, Santa Claus will come tonight down on the bayou
Play it

Put the dog out
Oh yeah
Come on y'all
You know what?

Dionne wants a push-y-on, a pistolette and yo-yo
My Jolivet, oh my sweet pet, Lord chère amie-o
Now Auntie Luce will cook the goose, she gonna serve the gumbo
Santa Claus will come tonight down on the bayou

Papa Noël will bring the bells and all will be gay-o
I'm gonna be at the Christmas tree with my ma chère amie-o
So ring the chimes, it's Christmas time, plunk that old piano
Oh, Santa Claus will come tonight down on the bayou

I see him
There he goes
He's comin' y'all
Papa Noël

Stars Still Shine lyrics - Harry Connick Jr

All this new news is getting old
Starting to make my whole world cold
The fire's become so uncontrolled
Thank God for you
Thank God for you

Last I knew things were fine
Skies of blue and Columbine
Seems we've crossed the battle line
Thank God for you
Thank God for you

And the stars still shine
And your love is mine
Soon I know we'll be fine
'Cause the stars still shine

I'd save the world if I could
Someone will in all likelihood
Well, it's probably you because you would
Thank God for you
Thank God for you

And the stars still shine
And your love is mine
Soon I know we'll be fine
'Cause the stars still shine

Yeah, this is all about you
I'm not here without you
Everything you gave me
Every time you saved me, uh

And the stars still shine
And your love is mine
Soon I know we'll be fine
'Cause the stars still shine
'Cause the stars still shine, yeah
