O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Thy leaves are so unchanging;
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Thy leaves are so unchanging;
Not only green when summer's here,
But also when 'tis cold and drear.
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Thy leaves are so unchanging!
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Much pleasure thou can'st give me;
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Much pleasure thou can'st give me;
How often has the Christmas tree
Afforded me the greatest glee!
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Much pleasure thou can'st give me.
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Thy candles shine so brightly!
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Thy candles shine so brightly!
From base to summit, gay and bright,
There's only splendor for the sight.
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
Thy candles shine so brightly!
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
How richly God has decked thee!
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
How richly God has decked thee!
Thou bidst us true and faithful be,
And trust in God unchangingly.
O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Tree!
How richly God has decked thee!

Won't You Come Home, Bill Bailey? lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
On one summer's day,
The Sun was shinin' fine,
The lady love of old Bill Bailey
Was hangin' clothes on the line
In her back yard,
And weepin' hard.
She married a B&O brakeman
That took and throwed her down,
Bellerin' like a prune-fed calf
With a big gang hanging round
And to that crowd,
She hollered loud
[Chorus:]
Won't you come home, Bill Bailey
Won't you come home?
She moans the whole day long.
I'll do the cookin', darling
I'll pay the rent,
I know I've done you wrong;
'member that rainy eve that
I threw you out,
With nothing but a fine-tooth comb?
I know I'm to blame,
Well, ain't that a shame
Bill Bailey won't you please come home.
Bill drove by that door
In an automobile,
A great big diamond, coach and footman
Hear that lady squeal.
He's all alone
I heard her groan.
She hollered through the door
Bill Bailey, is you sore?
Stop a minute, listen to me
Won't I see you no more?
Bill winks his eye
As he heard her cry
[Chorus]

Let Them Talk lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Let them talk if they want to
Talk don't bother me
I want the whole wide world to know
That I love you so
Let them whisper
For they know not what's
Between you and I
I'll keep on loving you
Until the day I die
They're tryin' to breakup our romance
But they don't have a chance
We have the kind of love
That's so strong
We'll be together from now on
Idle gossip comes from the devil's workshop
But true love will make it stop
I want the whole wide world to know
That I love you so
They're envious of ev'rything we do
But it's so wonderful (wonderful)
When you love some one (love someone)
When that someone loves you.
Talk don't bother me
I want the whole wide world to know
That I love you so
Let them whisper
For they know not what's
Between you and I
I'll keep on loving you
Until the day I die
They're tryin' to breakup our romance
But they don't have a chance
We have the kind of love
That's so strong
We'll be together from now on
Idle gossip comes from the devil's workshop
But true love will make it stop
I want the whole wide world to know
That I love you so
They're envious of ev'rything we do
But it's so wonderful (wonderful)
When you love some one (love someone)
When that someone loves you.
Jambalaya (On The Bayou) lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Goodbye, Joe, me gotta go, me oh my oh.
Me gotta go, pole the pirogue down the bayou.
My Yvonne, the sweetest one, me oh my oh.
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and file* gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio.
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gayo,
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Thibodaux, Fontaineaux, the place is buzzin',
Kinfolk come to see Yvonne by the dozen.
Dress in style and go hog wild, me oh my oh.
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and file gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio.
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gayo,
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Settle down far from town, get me a pirogue
And I'll catch all the fish in the bayou.
Swap my mon to buy Yvonne what she need-o.
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and file gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio.
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gayo,
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Me gotta go, pole the pirogue down the bayou.
My Yvonne, the sweetest one, me oh my oh.
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and file* gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio.
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gayo,
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Thibodaux, Fontaineaux, the place is buzzin',
Kinfolk come to see Yvonne by the dozen.
Dress in style and go hog wild, me oh my oh.
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and file gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio.
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gayo,
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Settle down far from town, get me a pirogue
And I'll catch all the fish in the bayou.
Swap my mon to buy Yvonne what she need-o.
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and file gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio.

Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Careless Love lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Love oh love careless love
Love oh love careless love
Love oh love oh careless love
See what careless love has done
Once I wore my apron low [3x]
I couldn't keep you from my door
What oh what will mama say [3x]
When she learns I've gone astray
I love my mama and papa too [3x]
See what I get for lovin' you
Now I wear my apron high [3x]
You pass my door you walk on by
Love oh love careless love
Love oh love oh careless love
See what careless love has done
Once I wore my apron low [3x]
I couldn't keep you from my door
What oh what will mama say [3x]
When she learns I've gone astray
I love my mama and papa too [3x]
See what I get for lovin' you
Now I wear my apron high [3x]
You pass my door you walk on by
Yes We Can Can lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Now is the time
Now is the time for all good men
To get together with one another
Iron out our problems
And iron out our quarrels
And try to live as brothers
And try to find a piece within
Without stepping on one another
And do respect the women of the world
Just remember you all have mothers
Make this land a better land
Than the world in which we live
And help each man be a better man
With the kindness that you give
I know we can make it
I know darn well we can work it out
Oh yes we can, I know we can can
Yes we can can, why can't we
If we wanna get yes we can can
I know we can make it a world
I know we can make it if we try
Oh yes we can, I know we can can
Yes we can can, great, got your money
Yes we can, I know we can can
Take care of the children
The children of the world
They're our strongest hope for the future
The little bitty boys and girls
Make this land a better land
Than the world in which we live
And help each man be a better man
With the kindness that you give
I know we can make it (I know that we can)
I know darn well we can work it out
Oh yes we can, I know we can can
Yes we can can, why can't we
If we wanna get yes we can can
I know we can make it a world
I know we can make it if we try
Oh yes we can, I know we can can
Yes we can can, great, got your money
Yes we can, I know we can can
Now is the time for all good men
To get together with one another
Iron out our problems
And iron out our quarrels
And try to live as brothers
And try to find a piece within

Make this land a better land

Elijah Rock lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
[Chorus:]
Elijah Rock shout shout
Elijah Rock comin' up Lord
Elijah Rock shout shout
Elijah Rock comin' up Lord
Satan is a liar and a conjure too
If you don't (mind high) watch out
He'll conjure you
If I could I sho'ly would
Stand on the rock where Moses stood
[Chorus]
Ezekiel said he saw him
Wheel in the mid' of a wheel
John talked about him
In the book of the 7 seals
Some say the Rose of Sharon
Others say the Prince of Peace
But I can tell everybody (this ol' world)
He been a rock and a shelter for me
Hallelujah
[Chorus]
You can call my rock in the morning
Call him late at night
He's always with me
And all my battles he'll fight
When I'm in trouble
I can call him on the line
He put a telephone in my heart
And I can call God anytime
Hallelujah
[Chorus]
Elijah Rock shout shout
Elijah Rock comin' up Lord
Elijah Rock shout shout
Elijah Rock comin' up Lord
Satan is a liar and a conjure too
If you don't (mind high) watch out
He'll conjure you
If I could I sho'ly would
Stand on the rock where Moses stood
[Chorus]
Ezekiel said he saw him
Wheel in the mid' of a wheel

You can call my rock in the morning

And all my battles he'll fight
When I'm in trouble

And I can call God anytime
Hallelujah

Lazybones lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Lazybones, sleeping in the sun
How you 'spect to get your day's work done?
Never get your day's work done
Sleeping in the new day's sun
Lazybones, sleepin in the shade
How you 'spect to get your cornmeal made?
You'll never get your cornmeal made
Just sleepin in the evenin shade
When 'taters need spraying I bet you keep praying
The bugs fall off the vine
And when you go fishin, I bet you keep wishin
The fish won't grab your line
Lazybones, loafing through the day
How you 'spect to get a dime that way?
Never make a dime that way
Never heard a word I say
How you 'spect to get your day's work done?
Never get your day's work done
Sleeping in the new day's sun
Lazybones, sleepin in the shade
How you 'spect to get your cornmeal made?
You'll never get your cornmeal made
Just sleepin in the evenin shade
When 'taters need spraying I bet you keep praying
The bugs fall off the vine
And when you go fishin, I bet you keep wishin
The fish won't grab your line
Lazybones, loafing through the day
How you 'spect to get a dime that way?
Never make a dime that way
Never heard a word I say

The Very Thought Of You lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
The very thought of you and I forget to do
The little ordinary things that everyone ought to do
I'm living in a kind of daydream
I'm happy as a king
And foolish though it may seem
To me that's everything
The mere idea of you, the longing here for you
You'll never know how slow the moments go till I'm near 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
[instrumental interlude]
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
The little ordinary things that everyone ought to do
I'm living in a kind of daydream
I'm happy as a king
And foolish though it may seem
To me that's everything
The mere idea of you, the longing here for you
You'll never know how slow the moments go till I'm near 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
[instrumental interlude]
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
Save The Last Dance For Me lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
You can dance
Every dance with the guy who gives you the eye
Let him hold you tight
You can smile
Every smile for the man who held your hand
'neath the pale moonlight
But don't forget who's takin' you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darlin' save the last dance for me
Well you can know
That the music's fine like sparklin' wine
Go and have your fun
Love and sing
But while we're apart, don't you give your heart to anyone
But don't forget who's takin' you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darlin', save the last dance for me
Baby don't you know I love you so
Can't you feel it when we touch
I will never never let you go
I love you so much
Well you can dance
You can carry on till the night is gone
And it's time to go
If he asks
If you're all alone, can he take you home
You must tell him no
Cause don't forget who's takin' you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darlin', save the last dance for me
Every dance with the guy who gives you the eye
Let him hold you tight
You can smile
Every smile for the man who held your hand
'neath the pale moonlight
But don't forget who's takin' you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darlin' save the last dance for me
Well you can know
That the music's fine like sparklin' wine
Go and have your fun
Love and sing
But while we're apart, don't you give your heart to anyone
But don't forget who's takin' you home

If you're all alone, can he take you home
You must tell him no
Cause don't forget who's takin' you home

So darlin', save the last dance for me
My Blue Heaven lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
When whippoorwills call and evening is nigh,
I hurry to my Blue Heaven.
A turn to the right, a little white light,
Will lead me to my Blue Heaven.
I'll see a smiling face, a fireplace, a cozy room,
A little nest that nestles where the roses bloom;
Just Jilly and me, and baby makes three,
We're happy in my Blue Heaven.
You know I'm gonna see a smiling face, a fireplace, a cozy room,
A little nest that nestles where the roses bloom;
Just Jilly and me, and baby makes three,
We're happy in my Blue Heaven.
I hurry to my Blue Heaven.
A turn to the right, a little white light,
Will lead me to my Blue Heaven.
I'll see a smiling face, a fireplace, a cozy room,
A little nest that nestles where the roses bloom;
Just Jilly and me, and baby makes three,
We're happy in my Blue Heaven.
You know I'm gonna see a smiling face, a fireplace, a cozy room,
A little nest that nestles where the roses bloom;
Just Jilly and me, and baby makes three,
We're happy in my Blue Heaven.
You Don't Know Me lyrics -
You give your hand to me
Then you say hello
And I can hardly speak
My heart is beating so
And anyone can tell
You think you know me well
But you don't know me
Ooh no
You don't know the one
Who dreams of you at night
And longs to kiss your lips
Longs to hold you tight
I'm just a friend
That's all I've ever been
Cause you don't know me
For I never knew the art of making love
Though my heart aches with love for you
Afraid and shy I let my chance go by
The chance that you might love me too
You give your hand to me
Then you say goodbye
I watch you walk away beside the lucky guy
You'll never never know
The one who loves you so
Well you don't know me
Oh I never knew the art of making love
Though my heart aches with love for you
Afraid and shy I let my chance go by
The chance that you might love me too
You give your hand to me
Ten you say goodbye
I watch you walk away beside the lucky guy
Oh you will never know The one who loves you so
Cause you don't know me
Oh no you don't know me
Oohh...you don't know me
Then you say hello
And I can hardly speak
My heart is beating so
And anyone can tell
You think you know me well
But you don't know me
Ooh no
You don't know the one
Who dreams of you at night
And longs to kiss your lips
Longs to hold you tight
I'm just a friend
That's all I've ever been
Cause you don't know me
For I never knew the art of making love
Though my heart aches with love for you
Afraid and shy I let my chance go by
The chance that you might love me too
You give your hand to me
Then you say goodbye
I watch you walk away beside the lucky guy
You'll never never know
The one who loves you so
Well you don't know me
Oh I never knew the art of making love
Though my heart aches with love for you
Afraid and shy I let my chance go by
The chance that you might love me too
You give your hand to me
Ten you say goodbye
I watch you walk away beside the lucky guy
Oh you will never know The one who loves you so
Cause you don't know me
Oh no you don't know me
Oohh...you don't know me
All These Things lyrics -
The touch of your lips next to mine
Gets me excited, makes me feel fine
The touch of your hand, your sweet hello
The fire inside you when you're holding me close
Your love so warm and tender
The thrill is so divine
It is all these things that make you mine
Make you mine
If you would leave, I surely would die
When you were ten minutes late
I started to cry
I've got it bad, it's all right
As long as you're here every night
Your love so warm and tender
The thrill is so divine
It is all these things, baby, that make you mine
Your love so warm and tender
The thrill is so divine
It is all these things that make you mine
Gets me excited, makes me feel fine
The touch of your hand, your sweet hello
The fire inside you when you're holding me close
Your love so warm and tender
The thrill is so divine
It is all these things that make you mine
Make you mine
If you would leave, I surely would die
When you were ten minutes late
I started to cry
I've got it bad, it's all right
As long as you're here every night
Your love so warm and tender
The thrill is so divine
It is all these things, baby, that make you mine
Your love so warm and tender
The thrill is so divine
It is all these things that make you mine
For Once In My Life lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
For once in my life I have someone who needs me
Someone I've needed so
For once unafraid I can go where life leads me
And somehow I know I'll be strong
For once I can touch what my heart used to dream of
Long before I knew
Someone warm like you
Could make my dreams come true
For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once I've got someone I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore
For once I can say: "this is mine you can't take it"
As long as I've got love I know I can make it
For once in my life I've got someone who needs me
For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once I've got someone I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore
Now, for once I can say: "this is mine you can't take it"
As long as I've got love I know I can make it
For once in my life I've got someone who needs me
For once in my life, she needs me
For once in my life
Someone I've needed so
For once unafraid I can go where life leads me
And somehow I know I'll be strong
For once I can touch what my heart used to dream of
Long before I knew
Someone warm like you
Could make my dreams come true
For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once I've got someone I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore
For once I can say: "this is mine you can't take it"
As long as I've got love I know I can make it
For once in my life I've got someone who needs me
For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once I've got someone I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore
Now, for once I can say: "this is mine you can't take it"
As long as I've got love I know I can make it
For once in my life I've got someone who needs me
For once in my life, she needs me
For once in my life
Only You lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Only you can make this world seem right
Only you can make the darkness bright
Only you and you alone
Can thrill me like you do
And fill my heart with love for only you
Only you, only you can make this change in me
For it's true you are my destiny
When you hold my hand I understand
The magic that you do
You're my dream come true
My one and only you
Only you, only you can make this change in me
For it's true, oh baby you are my destiny
When you hold my hand I understand
The magic that you do
You're my dream come true
My one and only you
Only you can make the darkness bright
Only you and you alone
Can thrill me like you do
And fill my heart with love for only you
Only you, only you can make this change in me
For it's true you are my destiny
When you hold my hand I understand
The magic that you do
You're my dream come true
My one and only you
Only you, only you can make this change in me
For it's true, oh baby you are my destiny
When you hold my hand I understand
The magic that you do
You're my dream come true
My one and only you
My Prayer lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
[Written by Jimmy Kennedy]
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
When the twilight is gone
And no songbird is singing
When the twilight is gone
You come into my heart
And here in my heart do you stay
While I pray
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
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
When the twilight is gone
And no songbird is singing
When the twilight is gone
You come into my heart
And here in my heart do you stay
While I pray
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 Only Have Eyes For You lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Are the stars out tonight?
I don't know if it's cloudy or bright
'cause I only have eyes for you, dear
The moon may be high
But I can't see a thing in the sky
'cause I only have eyes for you.
I don't know if we're in a garden
Or on a crowded avenue
You are here, so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
Cause I only have eyes for you
I don't know if we're in a garden
Or on a crowded avenue
You are here, so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
Cause I only have eyes for you
I don't know if it's cloudy or bright
'cause I only have eyes for you, dear
The moon may be high
But I can't see a thing in the sky
'cause I only have eyes for you.
I don't know if we're in a garden
Or on a crowded avenue
You are here, so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
Cause I only have eyes for you
I don't know if we're in a garden
Or on a crowded avenue
You are here, so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
Cause I only have eyes for you
Good Night My Love (Pleasant Dreams) lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Goodnight, my love
Pleasant dreams and sleep tight, my love
May tomorrow be sunny and bright
And bring you closer to me
Before you go
Please remember I need you so

Will never go cold
If you should awake in the still of the night
Please have no fear
Just close your eyes
Then you realize
That my love will watch over you, dear, always
Goodnight, my love
Pleasant dreams and sleep tight, my love
May tomorrow be sunny and bright
And bring you closer to me
If you should awake in the still of the night
Please have no fear

And this love I have for me
Will never go cold
If you should awake in the still of the night
Please have no fear
Just close your eyes
Then you realize
That my love will watch over you, dear, always
Goodnight, my love
Pleasant dreams and sleep tight, my love
May tomorrow be sunny and bright
And bring you closer to me
If you should awake in the still of the night
Please have no fear
Just close your eyes
Then you realize
That my love will watch over you, dear, always
Goodnight, my love
Pleasant dreams and sleep tight, my love
May tomorrow be sunny and bright
And bring you closer to me
Frosty The Snowman lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Frosty the Snowman
Was a jolly happy soul
With a corncob pipe and a button nose
And two eyes made out of coal
Frosty the Snowman
Is a fairytale, they say
He was made of snow but the children know
How he came to life one day
There must have been some magic
In that old silk they found
For when they placed it on his head
He began to dance around
Frosty the Snowman
Was alive as he could be
Dns the children say he could laugh and play
Just the same as you and me
Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Look at Frosty go
Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Over the hills of snow
Frosty the Snowman
Knew the sun was hot that day
So he said, "Let's run and we'll have some fun
Now before I melt away"
Down to the village
With a brooomstick in his hand
Running here and there, all around the square,
Sayin', "Catch me if you can"
He led them down the streets of town
Right to the traffic cop
And he only paused a moment
When he heard him holler, "Stop!"
Frosty the Snowman
Had to hurry on his way
But he waved goodbye, sayin' "Don't you cry,
I'll be back again some day."
Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Look at Frosty go
Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Over the hills of snow
He'll be back
Yes he will
Again someday
See you next year Frosty!
Was a jolly happy soul

Blue Christmas lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
I'll have a blue Christmas without you
I'll be so blue just thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
They won't mean a think, if you're not here with me
I'll have a blue Christmas that's certain
And when that blue heartache starts hurtin'
You'll be doin' all right, with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas
You'll be doin' all right, with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas
But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas
But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas
I'll be so blue just thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
They won't mean a think, if you're not here with me
I'll have a blue Christmas that's certain
And when that blue heartache starts hurtin'
You'll be doin' all right, with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas
You'll be doin' all right, with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas
But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas
But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas
The Christmas Waltz lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Frosted windowpanes
Candles gleaming inside
Painted candy canes on the tree
Santa's on his way
He's filled his sleigh with things
Things for you and me
It's that time of year
When the world falls in love
Ev'ry song you hear seems to say
Merry Christmas
May your New Year dreams come true
And this song of mine
In three-quarter time
Wishes you and yours
The same thing too
Candles gleaming inside
Painted candy canes on the tree
Santa's on his way
He's filled his sleigh with things
Things for you and me
It's that time of year
When the world falls in love
Ev'ry song you hear seems to say
Merry Christmas
May your New Year dreams come true
And this song of mine
In three-quarter time
Wishes you and yours
The same thing too
I Wonder As I Wander lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
I wonder as I wander, out under the sky
How Jesus the savior, did come to die
To save lowly people like you and like I
I wonder as I wander, out under the sky
Sweet Mary laid Jesus, within a cow's stall
Came wise men and farmers and shepherds and all
The blessings of Christmas heaven did fall
And God's promise of ages, to them did recall
If Jesus had wanted for any small thing
A cloud in the sky or a bird on the wing
Or all of God's angels in heaven to sing
He surely could have had it, because
He was the King
Because He was King!
How Jesus the savior, did come to die
To save lowly people like you and like I
I wonder as I wander, out under the sky
Sweet Mary laid Jesus, within a cow's stall
Came wise men and farmers and shepherds and all
The blessings of Christmas heaven did fall
And God's promise of ages, to them did recall
If Jesus had wanted for any small thing
A cloud in the sky or a bird on the wing
Or all of God's angels in heaven to sing
He surely could have had it, because
He was the King
Because He was King!
Silver Bells lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
City sidewalks
Busy sidewalks
Dressed in holiday style
In the air there's a feeling like Christmas
Children laughing
People passing
Meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner you hear
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them sing
Soon it will be Christmas day
Strings of street lights
Even stop lights
Blink a bright red and green
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures
Hear the snow crunch
See the kids bunch
This is Santa's big scene
And above all this bustle you hear
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them sing
Soon it will be Christmas day
Busy sidewalks
Dressed in holiday style
In the air there's a feeling like Christmas
Children laughing
People passing
Meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner you hear
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them sing
Soon it will be Christmas day
Strings of street lights
Even stop lights
Blink a bright red and green
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures
Hear the snow crunch
See the kids bunch
This is Santa's big scene
And above all this bustle you hear
Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them sing
Soon it will be Christmas day
Mary's Little Boy Child lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Long time ago in Bethlehem
So the Holy Bible say
Mary's boy child Jesus Christ
Was born on Christmas day
Hark now hear the angels sing
A new king born today
And man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day
Trumpets sound and angels sing
Listen what they say
That man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day
While shepherds watch their flock by night
They see a bright new shining star
Then hear a choir sing
The music seemed to come from afar
Now Joseph and his wife Mary
Come to Bethlehem that night
Then find no place to born the child
Not a single room was in sight
Hark now hear the angels sing
A new king born today
And man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day
Trumpets sound and angels sing
Listen what they say
That man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day
By and by they find a little nook
In a stable all forlorn
And in a manger cold and dark
Mary's little boy was born
So the Holy Bible say
Mary's boy child Jesus Christ
Was born on Christmas day
Hark now hear the angels sing
A new king born today
And man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day
Trumpets sound and angels sing
Listen what they say
That man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day
While shepherds watch their flock by night
They see a bright new shining star
Then hear a choir sing
The music seemed to come from afar
Now Joseph and his wife Mary
Come to Bethlehem that night
Then find no place to born the child
Not a single room was in sight
Hark now hear the angels sing
A new king born today
And man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day
Trumpets sound and angels sing
Listen what they say
That man will live forevermore
Because of Christmas day
By and by they find a little nook
In a stable all forlorn
And in a manger cold and dark
Mary's little boy was born

I'll Be Home For Christmas lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
I'll be home for Christmas
You can plan on me
Please have snow and mistletoe
And presents on the tree

I'll be home for Christmas If only in my dreams
I Come With Love lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
What was he saying?
Looking to her on the
Night of his birth?
What did he know, this baby?
Could she understand?
How did he know, this baby?
As she held is hand in hers
I come with love
I come with love
To worship and honor
My father above
And so with my eyes
I say to you
Softly and peacefully
I come with love
What was he feeling?
Knowing his time on earth
Wouldn't be long?
What did he think, this young man
In a world of sin?
What would he tell the strangers?
When he took them in his arms?
I come with love
I come with love
To worship and honor
My father above
And so with my eyes
I say to you
Softly and peacefully
I come with love
When he was dying
And his sweet mother was
There by his side
Who did he blame, this savior?
Sending him to death
She could hear it in a whisper
As he took his
Final breath
I come with love
I come with love
To worship and honor
My father above
And so with my eyes
I say to you
Softly and peacefully
I come with love
Looking to her on the
Night of his birth?
What did he know, this baby?
Could she understand?
How did he know, this baby?
As she held is hand in hers
I come with love
I come with love
To worship and honor
My father above
And so with my eyes
I say to you
Softly and peacefully
I come with love
What was he feeling?
Knowing his time on earth
Wouldn't be long?
What did he think, this young man
In a world of sin?
What would he tell the strangers?
When he took them in his arms?
I come with love
I come with love
To worship and honor
My father above
And so with my eyes
I say to you
Softly and peacefully
I come with love
When he was dying
And his sweet mother was
There by his side
Who did he blame, this savior?
Sending him to death
She could hear it in a whisper
As he took his
Final breath
I come with love
I come with love
To worship and honor
My father above
And so with my eyes
I say to you
Softly and peacefully
I come with love
Nature Boy lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
There was a boy
A very strange enchanged boy
They say he wandered very far, very far
Over land and sea
A little shy and sad of eye
But very wise was he
And then one day
A magic day, he passed my way
And while we spoke of many things
Fools and kings
This he said to me
The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return
A very strange enchanged boy
They say he wandered very far, very far
Over land and sea
A little shy and sad of eye
But very wise was he
And then one day
A magic day, he passed my way
And while we spoke of many things
Fools and kings
This he said to me
The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return
Little Town Of Bethlehem lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
O little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by
Yet in they dark streets shineth
The everlasting light
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight
For Christ is born of Mary
And gathered all above
While mortals sleep the angels keep
Their watch of wondering love
O morning starts together
Proclaim thy holy birth
And praises sing to God the King
And peace to men on earth
How still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by
Yet in they dark streets shineth
The everlasting light
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight
For Christ is born of Mary
And gathered all above
While mortals sleep the angels keep
Their watch of wondering love
O morning starts together
Proclaim thy holy birth
And praises sing to God the King
And peace to men on earth
I'm Gonna Be The First One lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
I don't much care
If I am the last in line to see
Whatever that it is
That they're lining up to see
You see, it doesn't concern me
I don't much care
If I am the very last to know
Whatever that it is
That they know about, oh, no
Oh, no I really don't care to know
'Cause when it comes to Santa Claus
And presents 'round the tree
No one I know could ever get jump on me
I'm gonna be the first one
Up on Christmas morning
I'm gonna be the first one
Up on Christmas day
I've always heard that the
Early birdie catches all the worms
But worms ain't for me, no
They're not my cup of tea
And I am certainly not a birdie
Me, I'd rather sleep 'til three
'Cause when it comes to Santa Claus
And presents 'round the tree
No one I know could ever get jump on me
I'm gonna be the first one
Up on Christmas morning
I'm gonna be the first one
Up on Christmas day
If I am the last in line to see
Whatever that it is
That they're lining up to see
You see, it doesn't concern me
I don't much care
If I am the very last to know
Whatever that it is
That they know about, oh, no
Oh, no I really don't care to know
'Cause when it comes to Santa Claus
And presents 'round the tree
No one I know could ever get jump on me
I'm gonna be the first one
Up on Christmas morning
I'm gonna be the first one
Up on Christmas day
I've always heard that the
Early birdie catches all the worms
But worms ain't for me, no
They're not my cup of tea
And I am certainly not a birdie
Me, I'd rather sleep 'til three
'Cause when it comes to Santa Claus
And presents 'round the tree
No one I know could ever get jump on me
I'm gonna be the first one
Up on Christmas morning
I'm gonna be the first one
Up on Christmas day
This Christmas lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Hang all the mistletoe
I'm gonna get to know you better
This Christmas
And as we trim the tree
How much fun it's gonna be together
This Christmas
Fireside is blazing bright
We're caroling through the night
And this Christmas will be
A very special Christmas for me
Presents and cards are here
My world is filled with cheer and you
This Christmas
And as I look around
Your eyes outshine the town, they do
This Christmas
Fireside is blazing bright
We're caroling through the night
And this Christmas will be
A very special Christmas for me
I'm gonna get to know you better
This Christmas
And as we trim the tree
How much fun it's gonna be together
This Christmas
Fireside is blazing bright
We're caroling through the night
And this Christmas will be
A very special Christmas for me
Presents and cards are here
My world is filled with cheer and you
This Christmas
And as I look around
Your eyes outshine the town, they do
This Christmas
Fireside is blazing bright
We're caroling through the night
And this Christmas will be
A very special Christmas for me
Nothin' New For New Year lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
I see my own reflection in the window
I hear the people carry'n on below
I know the one I love is out there somewhere
To me that somewhere's not far to go
Ev'ry year I make my resolution
To find my love and make her all my own
But it looks like she decided not to show again
And I'll be singing 'Auld Lang Syne' alone
People grow accustomed to their lifestyles
It's easier to settle in your ways
I wish that I had someone to get used to
To settle down until my dying days
Nothin' new for new year for me
Nothin' new for new year for me
All I wanted was an angel that I don't expect to see
Nothin' new for new year for me
It don't mean nothing if you're crying all the time
And there's no one there to see your tears
And it don't mean nothing if you're passing up your prime
And I been passing mine for years
And so, to my reflection in the window
I'll raise my glass and make a toast to you
I've never known a man to be heartbroken
My someone that he never even knew
Nothin' new for new year for me
Nothin' new for new year for me
All I wanted was an angel that I don't expect to see
Nothin' new for new year for me
I hear the people carry'n on below
I know the one I love is out there somewhere
To me that somewhere's not far to go
Ev'ry year I make my resolution
To find my love and make her all my own
But it looks like she decided not to show again
And I'll be singing 'Auld Lang Syne' alone
People grow accustomed to their lifestyles
It's easier to settle in your ways
I wish that I had someone to get used to
To settle down until my dying days
Nothin' new for new year for me
Nothin' new for new year for me
All I wanted was an angel that I don't expect to see
Nothin' new for new year for me
It don't mean nothing if you're crying all the time
And there's no one there to see your tears
And it don't mean nothing if you're passing up your prime
And I been passing mine for years
And so, to my reflection in the window
I'll raise my glass and make a toast to you
I've never known a man to be heartbroken
My someone that he never even knew
Nothin' new for new year for me
Nothin' new for new year for me
All I wanted was an angel that I don't expect to see
Nothin' new for new year for me
Silent Night lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon virgin mother and child
Holy infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace
Silent night, holy night
Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories beams from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing hallelujah
Christ the savior is born
Christ the savior is born
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon virgin mother and child
Holy infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace
Silent night, holy night
Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories beams from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing hallelujah
Christ the savior is born
Christ the savior is born
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
[From "Mary Poppins"]
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Even though the sound of it
Is something quite atrocious
If you say it loud enough
You'll always sound precocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
Because I was afraid to speak
When I was just a lad
My father gave me nose a tweak
And told me I was bad
But then one day I learned a word
That saved me aching nose
The biggest word I ever heard
And this is how it goes:
Oh, supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Even though the sound of it
Is something quite atrocious
If you say it loud enough
You'll always sound precocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
So when the cat has got your tongue
There's no need for dismay
Just summon up this word
And then you've got a lot to say
But better use it carefully
Or it may change your life
One night I said it to me girl
And now me girl's my wife!
She's supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Even though the sound of it
Is something quite atrocious
If you say it loud enough
You'll always sound precocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
Because I was afraid to speak
When I was just a lad
My father gave me nose a tweak
And told me I was bad
But then one day I learned a word
That saved me aching nose
The biggest word I ever heard
And this is how it goes:
Oh, supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Even though the sound of it
Is something quite atrocious
If you say it loud enough
You'll always sound precocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
Um diddle diddle diddle um diddle ay
So when the cat has got your tongue
There's no need for dismay
Just summon up this word
And then you've got a lot to say
But better use it carefully
Or it may change your life
One night I said it to me girl
And now me girl's my wife!
She's supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
The Lonely Goatherd lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
High on a hill was a lonely goatherd
Loud was the voice of the lonely goatherd
Folks in a town that was quite remote heard
Lusty and clear from the goatherd's throat heard
O ho lay dee odl lee o, o ho lay dee odl ay
O ho lay dee odl lee o, lay dee odl lee o lay
A prince on the bridge of a castle moat heard
Men on a road with a load to tote heard
Ooh, all men in the midst of a table d'hote heard
Men drinking beer with the foam afloat heard
O ho lay dee odl lee o, o ho lay dee odl ay
O ho lay dee odl lee o, lay dee odl lee o lay
One little girl in the pale pink coat heard
She yodeled back to the lonely goatherd
Soon her mama with the gleaming gloat heard
What a duet for a girl and goatherd
Lay ee odl lay ee odl lay hoo hoo
Happy are they lay dee olay dee lee o
Soon the duet will become a trio
Odl lay ee, old lay ee
Odl lay ee, odl lay ee
Odl lay ee, old lay ee

Ding-Dong! The Witch Is Dead lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Let the joyous news be spread
Let the joyous news be spread
The wicked old witch at last is dead
Below, below, yo ho, let's open up and sing
And ring the bells out ding dong the merry oh
Sing it high
Let the joyous news be spread
The wicked old witch at last is dead
Below, below, yo ho, let's open up and sing
And ring the bells out ding dong the merry oh
Sing it high
Maybe lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Maybe far away, or maybe real near by.
He may be pouring her coffee,
She may be Straightning his tie.
Maybe in a house all hidden by a hill,
She's sittin' playin' Piano,
He's sittin' payin' a bill.
Betcha they're young.
Betcha they're smart,
Bet they collect things like ashtrays and art.
Betcha there good.
Why shouldn't they be?
Their one mistake was giving up me.
So maybe now it's time,
And maybe when I wake,
They'll be there calling me baby,
Maybe.
He may be pouring her coffee,
She may be Straightning his tie.
Maybe in a house all hidden by a hill,
She's sittin' playin' Piano,
He's sittin' payin' a bill.
Betcha they're young.
Betcha they're smart,
Bet they collect things like ashtrays and art.
Betcha there good.
Why shouldn't they be?
Their one mistake was giving up me.
So maybe now it's time,
And maybe when I wake,
They'll be there calling me baby,
Maybe.
Pure Imagination / Candy Man lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Come with me and you'll be in a world of pure imagination
Take a look and you'll see into your imagination.
We'll begin with a spin traveling in the world of my creation.
What we'll see will defy explanation.
If you want to view paradise
Simply look around and view it.
Anything you want to do it.
You can even eat the dishes
Who can take a sunrise
Sprinkle it with dew
Cover it in chocolate and a miracle or two
The Candy Man
The Candy Man can
The Candy Man can
'cause he mixes it with love
and makes the world taste good
Who can take a rainbow
Wrap it in a sigh
Soak it in the sun and make strawberry-lemon pie
The Candy Man
The Candy Man can
The Candy Man can 'cause he mixes it with love and makes the world taste good
The Candy man makes everything he bakes
Satisfying and delicious
Talk about your childhood wishes
You can even eat the dishes
Yes...
The Candy man makes everything he bakes
Satisfying and delicious
Talk about your childhood wishes
Wanna change the world?
There's nothing to it.
There is no life I know to compare with pure imagination.
Living there you'll be free if you truly wish to be.
And the world tastes good 'cause the Candy Man thinks it should...
Take a look and you'll see into your imagination.
We'll begin with a spin traveling in the world of my creation.
What we'll see will defy explanation.
If you want to view paradise
Simply look around and view it.
Anything you want to do it.
You can even eat the dishes
Who can take a sunrise
Sprinkle it with dew
Cover it in chocolate and a miracle or two
The Candy Man
The Candy Man can
The Candy Man can
'cause he mixes it with love
and makes the world taste good
Who can take a rainbow
Wrap it in a sigh
Soak it in the sun and make strawberry-lemon pie
The Candy Man
The Candy Man can
The Candy Man can 'cause he mixes it with love and makes the world taste good
The Candy man makes everything he bakes
Satisfying and delicious
Talk about your childhood wishes
You can even eat the dishes
Yes...
The Candy man makes everything he bakes
Satisfying and delicious
Talk about your childhood wishes
Wanna change the world?
There's nothing to it.
There is no life I know to compare with pure imagination.
Living there you'll be free if you truly wish to be.

Golden Ticket / I Want It Now lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
I never thought my life could be anything but catastrophe
But suddenly I begin to see a bit of good luck for me
Cause I've got a golden ticket
I've got a golden twinkle in my eye
I never had a chance to shine never a happy song to sing,
But suddenly half the world is mine what an amazing thing
Cause I've got a golden ticket.
I've got a golden sun up in the sky.
I never thought I'd see the day when I would face the world and say,
"Good morning. Look at the sun."
I never thought that I would be slap in the lap of luxury
Cause I have said it couldn't be done
But it can be done.
I never dreamed that I would climb over the moon in ecstasy,
But nevertheless it's there that I'm shortly about to be
Cause I've got a golden ticket
I've got a golden chance to make my way
And with the golden ticket it's a golden day.
I want a feast
I want a bean feast
Cream buns and doughnuts and fruitcake with no nuts so good you could go nuts.
Give to me now!
I want a ball
I want a party
Pink macaroons and a million balloons and performing baboons and
Give it to me now.
I want the world,
I want the whole world.
I want to lock it all up in my pocket
It's my bar of chocolate
Give it to me now!
I want a party with roomfuls of laughter
Ten thousand ton of ice cream
And if I don't get the things I am after
I'm going to scream!
I want the works,
I want the whole works!
Presents and prizes and sweets and surprises in all shapes and sizes,
And now!
Don't care how I want it now!
But suddenly I begin to see a bit of good luck for me
Cause I've got a golden ticket
I've got a golden twinkle in my eye
I never had a chance to shine never a happy song to sing,
But suddenly half the world is mine what an amazing thing
Cause I've got a golden ticket.
I've got a golden sun up in the sky.
I never thought I'd see the day when I would face the world and say,
"Good morning. Look at the sun."
I never thought that I would be slap in the lap of luxury
Cause I have said it couldn't be done
But it can be done.
I never dreamed that I would climb over the moon in ecstasy,
But nevertheless it's there that I'm shortly about to be
Cause I've got a golden ticket
I've got a golden chance to make my way
And with the golden ticket it's a golden day.
I want a feast
I want a bean feast
Cream buns and doughnuts and fruitcake with no nuts so good you could go nuts.
Give to me now!
I want a ball
I want a party
Pink macaroons and a million balloons and performing baboons and
Give it to me now.
I want the world,
I want the whole world.
I want to lock it all up in my pocket
It's my bar of chocolate
Give it to me now!
I want a party with roomfuls of laughter
Ten thousand ton of ice cream
And if I don't get the things I am after
I'm going to scream!
I want the works,
I want the whole works!
Presents and prizes and sweets and surprises in all shapes and sizes,
And now!
Don't care how I want it now!
Oompa Loompa lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Oompa loompa doompety doo
I've got a perfect puzzle for you
Oompa loompa doompety dee
If you are wise you'll listen to me
What do you get when you guzzle down sweets
Eating as much as an elephant eats
What are you at, getting terribly fat
What do you think will come of that
I don't like the look of it
Oompa loompa doompety da
If you're not greedy, you will go far
You will live in happiness too
Like the Oompa Loompa Doompety do

I've got another puzzle for you
Oompa loompa doompeda dee
If you are wise you'll listen to me
Gum chewing's fine when it's once in a while
It stops you from smoking and brightens your smile
But it's repulsive, revolting and wrong
Chewing and chewing all day long
The way that a cow does
Oompa loompa doompety da
Given good manners you will go far
You will live in happiness too
Like the Oompa Loompa Doompety do

If you are wise you'll listen to me
Who do you blame when your kid is a brat
Pampered and spoiled like a siamese cat
Blaming the kids is a lie and a shame
You know exactly who's to blame
The mother and the father

If you're not spoiled then you will go far
You will live in happiness too

If you are wise you'll listen to me
What do you get from a glut of TV
A pain in the neck and an IQ of three
Why don't you try simply reading a book
Or could you just not bear to look
You'll get no
You'll get no
You'll get no
You'll get no
You'll get no commercials

A Spoonful Of Sugar lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
In ev'ry job that must be done

you find the fun and snap!
The job's a game
In ev'ry task you undertake
Becomes a piece of cake
A lark! A spree!
It's very clear to see
That a...
Spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down
The medicine go down
The medicine go down
Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down
In a most delightful way
A robin feathering his nest
Has very little time to rest
While gathering his
Bits of twine and twig
Though quite intent in his pursuit
He has a merry tune to toot
He knows a song
Will move the job along
For a...

Stay Awake lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Don't lie down upon your bed
While the moon drifts in the skies
Stay awake, don't close your eyes
Though the world is fast asleep
Though your pillow's soft and deep
You're not sleepy as you seem
Stay awake, don't nod and dream
Stay awake, don't nod and dream
Though the world is fast asleep
Though your pillow's soft and deep
You're not sleepy as you seem
Stay awake, don't nod and dream
Stay awake, don't nod and dream
While the moon drifts in the skies
Stay awake, don't close your eyes
Though the world is fast asleep
Though your pillow's soft and deep
You're not sleepy as you seem
Stay awake, don't nod and dream
Stay awake, don't nod and dream
Though the world is fast asleep
Though your pillow's soft and deep
You're not sleepy as you seem
Stay awake, don't nod and dream
Stay awake, don't nod and dream
Something Was Missing lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
I've made me a fortune
(That fortune made ten)
Been headlined
And profiled
Again and again
But something was missing
(I never quite knew)
That something was someone
But who?
My speeches are greeted
With thunderous acclaim
At two universities
Bearing my name
Yes, something was missing
Each timeI got through
That something was someone
But who?
Who could that someone be?
How could she make it known?
Who would need me for me?
Need me for me alone?
he world was my oyster
But where was the pearl?
Who dreamed I could find it
Yes something was missing
But dreams can come true
That something
Is no one
But you
Who would need me for me?
Need me for me alone
The world was my oyster
But where was the pearl?
Who'd dream I would find it
In one little girl?
Yes, something was missing
But dreams do come true
That something is no one.....but you.
(That fortune made ten)

You're Never Fully Dressed Without A Smile lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Hey, hobo man,
Hey, dapper dan,
You've both got your style,
But, brother, you're never fully dressed
Without a smile!
Your clothes may be beau brummelly
They stand out a mile,
But, brother, you're never fully dressed
Without a smile!
Who cares what they're wearing
On main street or saville row?
It's what you wear from ear to ear,
And not from head to toe,
That matters.
So, senator,
So, janitor,
So long for a while.
Remember you're
Never fully dressed,
Though you may wear your best.
You're never fully dressed
Without a smile
Smile!
Smile!
[Spoken:]
Smile, darn ya, smile!
Hey, dapper dan,
You've both got your style,
But, brother, you're never fully dressed
Without a smile!
Your clothes may be beau brummelly
They stand out a mile,
But, brother, you're never fully dressed
Without a smile!
Who cares what they're wearing
On main street or saville row?
It's what you wear from ear to ear,
And not from head to toe,
That matters.
So, senator,
So, janitor,
So long for a while.
Remember you're
Never fully dressed,
Though you may wear your best.
You're never fully dressed
Without a smile
Smile!

Smile, darn ya, smile!
Over The Rainbow lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Somewhere, over the rainbow, way up high.
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby.
Somewhere, over the rainbow, skies are blue.
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true.
Someday I'll wish upon a star and
wake up where the clouds are far
Behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops,
Away above the chimney tops.
That's where you'll find me.
Somewhere, over the rainbow, bluebirds fly.
Birds fly over the rainbow,
Why then - oh, why can't I?
Why then - oh, why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow,
Why, oh, why can't I?
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby.
Somewhere, over the rainbow, skies are blue.
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true.
Someday I'll wish upon a star and
wake up where the clouds are far
Behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops,
Away above the chimney tops.
That's where you'll find me.
Somewhere, over the rainbow, bluebirds fly.
Birds fly over the rainbow,
Why then - oh, why can't I?
Why then - oh, why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow,
Why, oh, why can't I?
The Jitterbug lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Who's that hiding in the tree top?
It's that rascal, The Jitterbug!
Should you catch him buzzing 'round you,
Keep away from, The Jitterbug!
Oh! the bats and the bees and the breeze in the trees have a terrible, horrible buzz!
But the bats and the bees and the breeze in the trees couldn't do what The
Jitterbug does!
So be careful of that rascal,
Keep away from The Jitterbug!
The Jitterbug!
Oh! The Jitter! Oh The Bug!
Oh! The Jitterbug, Bug-a-bug, bug-a-bug, bug-a-boo.
In a twitter, in the throes, Oh the critter's
Got me dancing on a thousand toes,
Thar' she blows!
Oh! the bats and the bees and the breeze in the trees have a terrible, horrible buzz!
But the bats and the bees and the breeze in the trees couldn't do what The
Jitterbug does!
So be careful of that rascal,
Keep away from The Jitterbug!
It's that rascal, The Jitterbug!
Should you catch him buzzing 'round you,
Keep away from, The Jitterbug!
Oh! the bats and the bees and the breeze in the trees have a terrible, horrible buzz!
But the bats and the bees and the breeze in the trees couldn't do what The
Jitterbug does!
So be careful of that rascal,
Keep away from The Jitterbug!
The Jitterbug!
Oh! The Jitter! Oh The Bug!
Oh! The Jitterbug, Bug-a-bug, bug-a-bug, bug-a-boo.
In a twitter, in the throes, Oh the critter's
Got me dancing on a thousand toes,

That's how the crickets crick all day,
In the Merry Old Land of Oz!
We get up at twelve and start to work at one.
Take an hour for lunch and then at two we're done.
Jolly good fun!
Ha - ha - ha, Ho - ho - ho
And a couple of tra - la - las
That's how we laugh the day away,
In the Merry Old Land of Oz!
We get up at twelve and start to work at one.
Take an hour for lunch and then at two we're done.
Jolly good fun!
Ha - ha - ha, Ho - ho - ho
And a couple of tra - la - las
That's how we laugh the day away,
In the Merry Old Land of Oz!
In the Merry Old Land of Oz!
And a couple of tra - la - las
That's how we laugh the day away,
In the Merry Old Land of Oz!
Bzz - bzz - bzz, Chirp - chirp - chirp
And a couple of La - di - das
That's how the crickets crick all day,
In the Merry Old Land of Oz!
We get up at twelve and start to work at one.
Take an hour for lunch and then at two we're done.
Jolly good fun!
Ha - ha - ha, Ho - ho - ho
And a couple of tra - la - las
That's how we laugh the day away,
In the Merry Old Land of Oz!
We get up at twelve and start to work at one.
Take an hour for lunch and then at two we're done.
Jolly good fun!
Ha - ha - ha, Ho - ho - ho
And a couple of tra - la - las
That's how we laugh the day away,
In the Merry Old Land of Oz!
In the Merry Old Land of Oz!

Blossom of snow may you bloom and grow
Bloom and grow forever

Blossom of snow may you bloom and grow
Bloom and grow forever
Edelweiss, Edelweiss

Do-Re-Mi lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
DO - a deer, a female deer
RE - a drop of golden sun
MI - a name, I call myself
FA - a long long way to run
SO - a needle pulling thread
LA - a note to follow SO
TI - a drink with jam and bread
That will bring us back to do
Doe! - a deer, a female deer
Ray! - a drop of golden sun
Me! - a name I call myself
Far! - a long long way to run
So! - a needle pulling thread
La! - a note to follow SO
Tea - a drink with jam and bread
That would bring us back to do!
Do, a deer, a female dear
RE, a drop of golden sun
MI, a name, I call myself
FA, a long long way to run
SO, a needle pulling thread
LA, a note to follow SO
TI, a drink with jam and bread
That would bring us back to do...
RE - a drop of golden sun

I'm Walkin' lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
I'm walkin', yes indeed and I'm talkin'
About you and me, I'm hopin'
That you'll come back to me,
I'm lonely as I can be, I'm waitin'
For your company, I'm hopin'
That you'll come back to me
What you gonna do when the well runs dry?
You gonna run away and hide
I'm gonna run right by your side
For you pretty baby I'll even die
I'm walkin', yes indeed and I'm talkin'
About you and me, I'm hopin'
That you'll come back to me
Well, what you gonna do when the well runs dry?
You're gonna sit right down and cry
What you gonna do when I say goodbye
All you gonna do is dry your eye
I'm walkin', yes indeed and I'm talkin'
About you and me, I'm hopin'
That you'll come back to me
About you and me, I'm hopin'
That you'll come back to me,
I'm lonely as I can be, I'm waitin'
For your company, I'm hopin'
That you'll come back to me
What you gonna do when the well runs dry?
You gonna run away and hide
I'm gonna run right by your side
For you pretty baby I'll even die
I'm walkin', yes indeed and I'm talkin'
About you and me, I'm hopin'
That you'll come back to me
Well, what you gonna do when the well runs dry?
You're gonna sit right down and cry
What you gonna do when I say goodbye
All you gonna do is dry your eye
I'm walkin', yes indeed and I'm talkin'
About you and me, I'm hopin'
That you'll come back to me
Chattanooga Choo Choo lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
(Hi there Tex, what you say?)
Step aside partner, it's my day
bend an ear, and listen to my version
of a really solid Tennessee excursion
pardon me boys, is that the Chattanooga Choo-Choo?
(Yes, Yes, Track 29)
Hey would you give me a shine?
(Can you afford to board Chattanooga Choo-Choo?)
I got my fare
and just the travel to spare
you leave the Pennsylvania Station by a quarter to four
you read a magazine and then you're in Baltimore
dinner in a diner
nothing could be finer
and then to have a hammer in the Carolina
when you hear the whistle blowing into the bar
then you now the Tennessee is not very far
shove a all the coal in
gotta keep a rollin'
woo-woo Chattanooga there you are
there's gonna be
a certain party at the station
Satin and Lace (ooh)
I use to call funny face
(doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo)
she's gonna cry
until I promise to never ever roll,
so Chattanooga choo-choo
won't you choo choo me home
(Chattanooga Chattanooga)
get aboard
(Chattanooga Chattanooga)
Chattanooga choo choo
won't you choo-choo me home
Chattanooga choo choo
let's dance
Step aside partner, it's my day
bend an ear, and listen to my version
of a really solid Tennessee excursion

Somewhere My Love lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Somewhere, my love there will be songs to sing
Although the snow covers the hope of spring
Somewhere a hill blossoms in green and gold
And there are dreams all that your heart can hold
Someday we'll meet again my love
Someday whenever the spring breaks through
You'll come to me out of the long ago
Warm as the wind, soft as the kiss of snow
Lara my own, think of me now and then
God speed my love till you are mine again
You'll come to me out of the long ago
Warm as the wind soft as the kiss of snow
Till then my sweet think of me now and then
God speed my love 'til you are mine again
Although the snow covers the hope of spring
Somewhere a hill blossoms in green and gold
And there are dreams all that your heart can hold
Someday we'll meet again my love
Someday whenever the spring breaks through
You'll come to me out of the long ago
Warm as the wind, soft as the kiss of snow
Lara my own, think of me now and then
God speed my love till you are mine again
You'll come to me out of the long ago
Warm as the wind soft as the kiss of snow
Till then my sweet think of me now and then
God speed my love 'til you are mine again
The Gypsy lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
In a quaint caravan
There's a lady they call The Gypsy
She can look in the future
And drive away all your fears
Everything will go right
If you only believe The Gypsy
She could tell at a glance
That my heart was so full of tears
She looked at my hand
and told me
My lover was always true
Then all that onces I knew, dear
Somebody else was kissing you
But I'll go there again
'Cause I want to believe
The Gypsy
That my lover is true
And will come back to me some day
She looked at my hand
and told me
My lover was always true
Then all that onces I knew, dear
Somebody else was kissing you
But I'll go there again
'Cause I got to believe
The Gypsy
That my lover is true
And will come back to me some day
That my lover is true
And will come back to me some day
If I Were A Bell lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Ask me how do I feel
now that we're cosy and clinging
Well sir, all I can say, is if I were a bell I'd be ringing!
From the moment we kissed tonight
That's the way I've just gotta behave
Boy, if I were a lamp I'd light
And If I were a banner I'd wave!
Ask me how do I feel, little me with my quiet upbringing
Well sir, all I can say is if gate I'd be swinging!
And if I were a watch I'd start popping my springs!
Or if I were a bell I'd go ding dong, ding dong ding!
Ask me how do I feel from this chemistry lesson I'm learning.
Well sir, all I can say is if I were a bridge I'd be burning!
Yes, I knew my moral would crack
From the wonderful way that you looked!
Boy, if I were a duck I'd quack!
Or if I were a goose I'd be cooked!
Ask me how do I feel,
now that we're fondly caressing
Well, if I were a salad I know I'd be splashing my dressing
Oh, If I were a season
I shortly be spring
Yes, or if I were a bell I'd go
ding dong, ding dong ding!
now that we're cosy and clinging
Well sir, all I can say, is if I were a bell I'd be ringing!
From the moment we kissed tonight
That's the way I've just gotta behave
Boy, if I were a lamp I'd light
And If I were a banner I'd wave!
Ask me how do I feel, little me with my quiet upbringing
Well sir, all I can say is if gate I'd be swinging!
And if I were a watch I'd start popping my springs!
Or if I were a bell I'd go ding dong, ding dong ding!
Ask me how do I feel from this chemistry lesson I'm learning.
Well sir, all I can say is if I were a bridge I'd be burning!
Yes, I knew my moral would crack
From the wonderful way that you looked!
Boy, if I were a duck I'd quack!
Or if I were a goose I'd be cooked!
Ask me how do I feel,
now that we're fondly caressing
Well, if I were a salad I know I'd be splashing my dressing
Oh, If I were a season
I shortly be spring
Yes, or if I were a bell I'd go
ding dong, ding dong ding!
Way Down Yonder In New Orleans lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Way down yonder in New Orleans
In the land of the dreamy scenes
It's a garden of Eden...you know what I mean
Creole babies with lovin' eyes
Softly whisper their tender sighs
Stop..ya bet your life you'll linger there...a little while
Stop....won't you give your lady fair...a little smile
It's the heaven right here on earth
All the beautiful queens
Way down yonder in New...Orleans
Stop....won't you give your lady fair...a little smile
Stop....give lady fair...a little smile
Oh!
It's the heaven right here on earth
All the beautiful queens,
Look out!
Way down yonder in New Orleans
In the land of the dreamy scenes
It's a garden of Eden...you know what I mean
Creole babies with lovin' eyes
Softly whisper their tender sighs
Stop..ya bet your life you'll linger there...a little while
Stop....won't you give your lady fair...a little smile
It's the heaven right here on earth
All the beautiful queens
Way down yonder in New...Orleans
Stop....won't you give your lady fair...a little smile
Stop....give lady fair...a little smile
Oh!
It's the heaven right here on earth
All the beautiful queens,
Look out!
Way down yonder in New Orleans
Tie A Yellow Ribbon Round The Old Oak Tree lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
I'm coming home I've done my time
And I have to know what is or isn't mine
If you received my letter
Telling you I'd soon be free
Then you'd know just what to do
If you still want me
If you still want me
Oh tie a yellow ribbon
'Round the old oak tree
It's been three long years
Do you still want me
If I don't see a yellow ribbon
'Round the old oak tree
I'll stay on the bus, forget about us
Put the blame on me
If I don't see a yellow ribbon
'Round the old oak tree
Bus driver please look for me
'Cause I couldn't bare to see what I might see
I'm really still in prison
And my love she holds the key
A simple yellow ribbon's all I need to set me free
I wrote and told her please
Oh tie a yellow ribbon
'Round the old oak tree
It's been three long years
Do you still want me
If I don't see a yellow ribbon
'Round the old oak tree
I'll stay on the bus, forget about us
Put the blame on me
If I don't see a yellow ribbon
'Round the old oak tree
Now the whole damn bus is cheering
And I can't believe I see
A hundred yellow ribbons
'Round the old, the old oak tree
Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree
Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree
Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree
Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree
Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree
Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree
Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree
Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree
And I have to know what is or isn't mine
If you received my letter
Telling you I'd soon be free
Then you'd know just what to do
If you still want me
If you still want me
Oh tie a yellow ribbon
'Round the old oak tree
It's been three long years
Do you still want me
If I don't see a yellow ribbon
'Round the old oak tree
I'll stay on the bus, forget about us
Put the blame on me
If I don't see a yellow ribbon
'Round the old oak tree
Bus driver please look for me
'Cause I couldn't bare to see what I might see
I'm really still in prison
And my love she holds the key
A simple yellow ribbon's all I need to set me free
I wrote and told her please
Oh tie a yellow ribbon
'Round the old oak tree
It's been three long years
Do you still want me
If I don't see a yellow ribbon

I'll stay on the bus, forget about us
Put the blame on me
If I don't see a yellow ribbon
'Round the old oak tree
Now the whole damn bus is cheering
And I can't believe I see
A hundred yellow ribbons

Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree
Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree
Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree
Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree
There Is Always One More Time lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
If your whole life somehow
Wasn't much 'til now
And you've almost lost
Your will to live
No matter what you've been through
Long as there's breath in you
There is always one more time
If your dreams go bad
Every one that you've had
don't you think that your dreams
Can't come true
Because it's funny about dreams
Just strange as it seems
Becouse there is always one more time
Turnin' corners
Turnin' corners
Only a state of mind
Only a state of mind
Keeping your eyes closed
Keeping your eyes closed
Worse than being blind
Worse than being blind
If better a heart out there
If better a heart out there
Looking for someone to share
Looking for someone to share
I don't care if it's been
I don't care if it's been
Turned down time and time again
Turned down time and time again
And if we meet some day
And if we meet some day
Please don't walk away
No, no don't walk away
'Cause there is always always one more time
One more time
'Cause there is always one more time.
Wasn't much 'til now
And you've almost lost
Your will to live
No matter what you've been through
Long as there's breath in you
There is always one more time
If your dreams go bad
Every one that you've had
don't you think that your dreams
Can't come true
Because it's funny about dreams
Just strange as it seems
Becouse there is always one more time
Turnin' corners
Turnin' corners
Only a state of mind
Only a state of mind
Keeping your eyes closed
Keeping your eyes closed
Worse than being blind
Worse than being blind
If better a heart out there
If better a heart out there
Looking for someone to share
Looking for someone to share
I don't care if it's been
I don't care if it's been
Turned down time and time again
Turned down time and time again
And if we meet some day
And if we meet some day
Please don't walk away
No, no don't walk away
'Cause there is always always one more time
One more time
'Cause there is always one more time.
Speak Softly Love lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Speak softly love and hold me warm against your heart
I feel your words, the tender trembling moments start
We're in a world, our very own
Sharing a love that only few have ever known
Wine colored days warmed by the sun
Deep velvet nights when we are one
Speak softly love so no one hears us but the sky
The vows of love we make will last until we die
My life is yours and all because
You came into my world with love so softly, love
We're in a world, our very own
Sharing a love that only few have ever known
Wine colored days warmed by the sun
Deep velvet nights when we are one
Speak softly love so no one hears us but the sky
The vows of love we make will last until we die
My life is yours and all because
You came into my world with love so softly, love
I feel your words, the tender trembling moments start
We're in a world, our very own
Sharing a love that only few have ever known
Wine colored days warmed by the sun
Deep velvet nights when we are one
Speak softly love so no one hears us but the sky
The vows of love we make will last until we die
My life is yours and all because
You came into my world with love so softly, love
We're in a world, our very own
Sharing a love that only few have ever known
Wine colored days warmed by the sun
Deep velvet nights when we are one
Speak softly love so no one hears us but the sky
The vows of love we make will last until we die
My life is yours and all because
You came into my world with love so softly, love
Junco Partner lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Down the road came a Junco Partner
For he was loaded as can be
He was knocked out, knocked out loaded
He was a'wobblin' all over the street
Singing 6 months ain't no sentence
And one year ain't no time
I was born in Angola
Serving 14 to 99
Well I wish I had me $1 million dollars
Oh one million to call my own
I would raise meat and say, "grow for me baby"
I would raise me a tobacco farm
Well I wish I would have me a great deal of money
Yeah and mighty good things all over town
Now I ain't got no more money
All of my good friends are putting me down
So now I gotta pawn my rifle and pistol
Yeah I'm gonna pawn my watch and chain
I would have pawned my seat Gabriella
But the smart girl she wouldn't sign her name
Give me headstone when I die
Don't Fence Me In lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Well, give me land, lots of land under starry skies above
But don't fence me in
Let me ride through that wide open country that I love
Don't fence me in
Let me be by myself in the evenin' breeze
Listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees
Send me off forever but I ask you please
Don't fence me in
Just turn me loose, let me straddle my old saddle
Underneath the western skies
On my cayuse, let me wander over yonder
Till I see the mountains rise
I want to ride to the ridge where the west commences
Gaze at the moon till I lose my senses
I don't like hobbles and I can't stand fences
Don't fence me in
[Instrumental break]
Just turn me loose, let me straddle my old saddle
Underneath the western skies
On my cayuse, let me wander over yonder
Till I see the mountains rise
I want to ride to the ridge where the west commences
Gaze at that ole moon until I lose my senses
I can't stand them hobbles and I don't care for fences
Don't fence me in
Oh no...don't you fence me in
But don't fence me in
Let me ride through that wide open country that I love
Don't fence me in
Let me be by myself in the evenin' breeze
Listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees
Send me off forever but I ask you please
Don't fence me in
Just turn me loose, let me straddle my old saddle
Underneath the western skies
On my cayuse, let me wander over yonder
Till I see the mountains rise
I want to ride to the ridge where the west commences
Gaze at the moon till I lose my senses
I don't like hobbles and I can't stand fences
Don't fence me in
[Instrumental break]
Just turn me loose, let me straddle my old saddle
Underneath the western skies
On my cayuse, let me wander over yonder
Till I see the mountains rise
I want to ride to the ridge where the west commences
Gaze at that ole moon until I lose my senses
I can't stand them hobbles and I don't care for fences
Don't fence me in
Oh no...don't you fence me in
Don't Like Goodbyes lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Don't like good-byes, tears or sighs.
I'm not too good at leavin' time.
I got no taste for grievin' time. No, no - not me.
You've been my near ones, always my dear ones.
I never thought that I would find
Another love, a different kind, but it came to be.
Well, if you think I'm tellin' you lies,
Go try your luck and look into her eyes.
But remember, you must remember she's mine,
And my world overhead has a clear new shine.
Don't want to leave you, sorry to grieve you.
It's travelin' time and I must move on.
Found the girl to lean upon.
And If I could arrange it,
Would I care to change it?
Not me!
I'm not too good at leavin' time.
I got no taste for grievin' time. No, no - not me.
You've been my near ones, always my dear ones.
I never thought that I would find
Another love, a different kind, but it came to be.
Well, if you think I'm tellin' you lies,
Go try your luck and look into her eyes.
But remember, you must remember she's mine,
And my world overhead has a clear new shine.
Don't want to leave you, sorry to grieve you.
It's travelin' time and I must move on.
Found the girl to lean upon.
And If I could arrange it,
Would I care to change it?
Not me!
I'll Only Miss Her (When I Think Of Her) lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
I'll only miss her when I think of her
And I'll think of her all the time
Likely I'll spend my days hearing her turn of a phrase
Things I found hard to praise, right now, would seem sublime
And the truth is
I'll only miss her when some stranger laughs
'Cause it's still her laugh my heart hears
Maybe in time, I guess, the longing will grow the slightest bit less
And there will be moments, yes, when it disappears
I'll bet I forget her completely
In about a hundred years
The truth is
I'll only miss her when some stranger laughs
'Cause it's still her laugh my heart hears
Maybe in time, I guess, the longing will grow the slightest bit less
And there will be moments, yes, when it disappears
I'll bet I forget her completely
In about a hundred years.
And I'll think of her all the time
Likely I'll spend my days hearing her turn of a phrase
Things I found hard to praise, right now, would seem sublime
And the truth is
I'll only miss her when some stranger laughs
'Cause it's still her laugh my heart hears
Maybe in time, I guess, the longing will grow the slightest bit less
And there will be moments, yes, when it disappears
I'll bet I forget her completely
In about a hundred years
The truth is
I'll only miss her when some stranger laughs
'Cause it's still her laugh my heart hears
Maybe in time, I guess, the longing will grow the slightest bit less
And there will be moments, yes, when it disappears
I'll bet I forget her completely
In about a hundred years.
Nowhere With Love lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
In a way, I really don't know much at all
And if you say that I'm simple, you're on the ball
On the ball to say that I'm going nowhere
But I'm going nowhere with love
They all say that I'm not impressive at best
That's O.K., I've got nobody to impress
My impression is they'd rather be elsewhere
Oh, I'm staying nowhere with love
Well, it's better to be happy in a cardboard shack
Than to be alone in a castle
All you get for your money is a heart attack
I'd just as soon alleviate the hassle
Every day, I watch the go-getters go by
Even they say the ladder is much too high
Why should I go high, I'm happy below there
Right here in nowhere with love
And if you say that I'm simple, you're on the ball
On the ball to say that I'm going nowhere
But I'm going nowhere with love
They all say that I'm not impressive at best
That's O.K., I've got nobody to impress
My impression is they'd rather be elsewhere
Oh, I'm staying nowhere with love
Well, it's better to be happy in a cardboard shack
Than to be alone in a castle
All you get for your money is a heart attack
I'd just as soon alleviate the hassle
Every day, I watch the go-getters go by
Even they say the ladder is much too high
Why should I go high, I'm happy below there
Right here in nowhere with love
Come By Me lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Come by me, come talk to me baby
Tell me how we can combine
Will you be my sunshine forever
Will you be a friend of mine
Try me out and if you get excited
Take me home, I'd love to be invited
Once we're there, I'm sure you'll be delighted
We can rock all night
Wait and see, we might fit together
That would be my lucky day
Come by me, come love with me baby
Maybe we could run away
Tell me how we can combine
Will you be my sunshine forever
Will you be a friend of mine
Try me out and if you get excited
Take me home, I'd love to be invited
Once we're there, I'm sure you'll be delighted
We can rock all night
Wait and see, we might fit together
That would be my lucky day
Come by me, come love with me baby
Maybe we could run away
Charade lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
When we played our charade
We were like children posing
Playing at games, acting out names
Guessing the parts we played
Oh, what a hit we made
We came on next to closing
Best on the bill, lovers until
Love left the masquerade
Fate seemed to pull the strings
I turned and you were gone
While from the darkened wings
The music box played on
Sad little serenade
Song of my hearts composing
I hear it still, I always will
Best on the bill, charade
We were like children posing
Playing at games, acting out names
Guessing the parts we played
Oh, what a hit we made
We came on next to closing
Best on the bill, lovers until
Love left the masquerade
Fate seemed to pull the strings
I turned and you were gone
While from the darkened wings
The music box played on
Sad little serenade
Song of my hearts composing
I hear it still, I always will
Best on the bill, charade
Change Partners lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Must you dance every dance
With the same fortunate man
You have danced with him since the music began
Why don't you change partners and dance with me
Must you stand quite so close
With your lips touching his face
Can't you see I'm longing to be in his place
Why don't you change partners and dance with me
Ask him to sit this one out
And while you're alone
I'll tell the waiter to tell him
He's wanted on the telephone
You've been locked in his arms
Ever since heaven knows when
Why don't you change partners and then
You may never want to change partners again
With the same fortunate man
You have danced with him since the music began
Why don't you change partners and dance with me
Must you stand quite so close
With your lips touching his face
Can't you see I'm longing to be in his place
Why don't you change partners and dance with me
Ask him to sit this one out
And while you're alone
I'll tell the waiter to tell him
He's wanted on the telephone
You've been locked in his arms
Ever since heaven knows when
Why don't you change partners and then
You may never want to change partners again
Easy For You To Say lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
The sentimental sun in his teary sky
Says he doesn't want to shine today
You tell me to imagine myself with another lover
That's easy for you to say
The April that I knew with her cool soft rain
Has turned into a flowerless May
You tell me to go on with my life as if nothing's happened
That's easy for you to say
Maybe I should quote the letters that you wrote
I was your Mr. Right, if you recall
You tell me not to do it, but you're not going through it
I guess I'm not so right after all
The melancholy moon is awfully pale
And while his light is dim you seem OK
You tell me there are plenty of fish in the deep blue sea
That's easy for you to say
The melancholy moon is awfully pale
And while his light is dim you seem OK
You tell me there are plenty of fish in the deep blue sea
But the only one I caught just got away
It's easy for you, easy for you
It's all so easy for you to say
Says he doesn't want to shine today
You tell me to imagine myself with another lover
That's easy for you to say
The April that I knew with her cool soft rain
Has turned into a flowerless May
You tell me to go on with my life as if nothing's happened
That's easy for you to say
Maybe I should quote the letters that you wrote
I was your Mr. Right, if you recall
You tell me not to do it, but you're not going through it
I guess I'm not so right after all
The melancholy moon is awfully pale
And while his light is dim you seem OK
You tell me there are plenty of fish in the deep blue sea
That's easy for you to say
The melancholy moon is awfully pale
And while his light is dim you seem OK
You tell me there are plenty of fish in the deep blue sea
But the only one I caught just got away
It's easy for you, easy for you
It's all so easy for you to say
Time After Time lyrics -
I only know what I know
The passing years will show
You've kept my love so young, so new
And time after time
I tell myself that
I'm so lucky to be loving you
The passing years will show
You've kept my love so young, so new
And time after time
I tell myself that
I'm so lucky to be loving you
Easy To Love lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
You'd be so easy to love
So easy to idolize all others above
So worth the yearning for
So swell to keep every home fire burning for
We'd be so grand at the game
So happy together that it does seem a shame
That you can't see your future with me
'Cause you'd be so easy to love
So easy to idolize all others above
So worth the yearning for
So swell to keep every home fire burning for
We'd be so grand at the game
So happy together that it does seem a shame
That you can't see your future with me
'Cause you'd be so easy to love
There's No Business Like Show Business lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
The butcher, the baker, the grocer, the clerk
Are secretly unhappy men because
The butcher, the baker, the grocer, the clerk
Get paid for what they do but no applause
They'd gladly bid their dreary jobs goodbye
For anything theatrical and why
There's no business like show business
Like no business I know
Everything about it is appealing
Everything the traffic will allow
Nowhere could you get that happy feeling
When you are stealing that extra bow
There's no people like show people
They smile when they're low
Even with a turkey that you know will fold
You may be stranded out in the cold
Still you wouldn't change it for a sack of gold
Let's go on with the show
The costumes, the scenery, the makeup, the props
The audience that lifts you when you're down
The headaches, the heartaches, the backaches, the flops
The sheriff that escorts you out of town
The opening when your heart beats like a drum
The closing when the customers won't come
There's no business like show business
Like no business I know
You get word the show has started
That your favorite uncle died at dawn
Top of that your pa and ma have parted
You're broken hearted but you go on
There's no people like show people
They never ever run out of dough
Yesterday they told you you would not go far
That night you opened and there you are
Next day on your dressing room they hung a star
Let's go on with the show
Are secretly unhappy men because
The butcher, the baker, the grocer, the clerk
Get paid for what they do but no applause
They'd gladly bid their dreary jobs goodbye
For anything theatrical and why
There's no business like show business
Like no business I know
Everything about it is appealing
Everything the traffic will allow
Nowhere could you get that happy feeling
When you are stealing that extra bow
There's no people like show people
They smile when they're low
Even with a turkey that you know will fold
You may be stranded out in the cold
Still you wouldn't change it for a sack of gold
Let's go on with the show
The costumes, the scenery, the makeup, the props
The audience that lifts you when you're down
The headaches, the heartaches, the backaches, the flops
The sheriff that escorts you out of town
The opening when your heart beats like a drum
The closing when the customers won't come
There's no business like show business
Like no business I know
You get word the show has started
That your favorite uncle died at dawn
Top of that your pa and ma have parted
You're broken hearted but you go on
There's no people like show people
They never ever run out of dough
Yesterday they told you you would not go far
That night you opened and there you are
Next day on your dressing room they hung a star
Let's go on with the show
A Moment With Me lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
You choose drawn curtains instead of light
Your airy demeanor becomes polite
All the things you adore don't mean all that much anymore
Well there's really no mystery
You just need someone to listen
So come and spend a moment with me
It isn't so easy to walk alone
Especially knowing you're on your own
The secret you've kept so well is much better with someone to tell
We can speak confidentially
I'll tell you what you've been missing
Come and spend a moment with me
You feel your heartache as bad as it's been
It's finally beaten you down
You don't want to partake but you want to win
And there's no other party in town
It's much too early to say goodnight
Just one more moment and you just might
See that a moment with me is more than you thought it could be
We don't have to make history
We can start with some kisses
Come and spend a moment with me
Your airy demeanor becomes polite
All the things you adore don't mean all that much anymore
Well there's really no mystery
You just need someone to listen
So come and spend a moment with me
It isn't so easy to walk alone
Especially knowing you're on your own
The secret you've kept so well is much better with someone to tell
We can speak confidentially
I'll tell you what you've been missing
Come and spend a moment with me
You feel your heartache as bad as it's been
It's finally beaten you down
You don't want to partake but you want to win
And there's no other party in town
It's much too early to say goodnight
Just one more moment and you just might
See that a moment with me is more than you thought it could be
We don't have to make history
We can start with some kisses
Come and spend a moment with me
Danny Boy lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen and down the mountain side
The summer's gone, and all the roses falling
It's you, It's you must go and I must bide
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
It's I'll be here in sunshine, or in shadow
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so
But when ye come and all the flowers are dying
If I am dead, and dead I well may be
You'll come and find the place where I am lying
And kneel and say an "Ave" there for me
And I shall hear tho' soft you tread above me
And all my grave will warmer, sweeter be
For you will bend and tell me that you love me
And I shall sleep in peace until you come to me
From glen to glen and down the mountain side
The summer's gone, and all the roses falling
It's you, It's you must go and I must bide
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
It's I'll be here in sunshine, or in shadow
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so
But when ye come and all the flowers are dying
If I am dead, and dead I well may be
You'll come and find the place where I am lying
And kneel and say an "Ave" there for me
And I shall hear tho' soft you tread above me
And all my grave will warmer, sweeter be
For you will bend and tell me that you love me
And I shall sleep in peace until you come to me
Cry Me A River lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Now you say you're lonely
You cry the whole night through
Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a river over you
Now you say you're sorry
For being so untrue
Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a river over you
You drove me, nearly drove me out of my head
You never shed a tear
Remember, I remember all that you said
Told me love was too plebeian, told me you were through with me
And now you say you love me
Well, just to prove you do
Come on and cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a river over you
You cry the whole night through
Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a river over you
Now you say you're sorry
For being so untrue
Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a river over you
You drove me, nearly drove me out of my head
You never shed a tear
Remember, I remember all that you said
Told me love was too plebeian, told me you were through with me
And now you say you love me
Well, just to prove you do
Come on and cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a river over you
Love For Sale lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
When the only sound on the empty street
Is the heavy tread of the heavy feet
That belong to a lonesome cop
I open shop
When the moon so long has been gazing down
On the wayward ways of this wayward town
That her smile becomes a smirk
I go to work
Love for sale
Appetizing young love for sale
Love that's fresh and still unspoiled
Love that's only slightly soiled
Love for sale
Who, who will buy
Who would like to sample my supply
Who's prepared to pay the price
For a trip to paradise
Love for sale
Let the poets pipe of love in their childish way
I know every type of love better far than they
If you want the thrill of love, I've been through the mill of love
Old love, new love, every love but true love
Love for sale
Appetizing young love for sale
Well, if you want to buy my wares
Follow me and climb the stairs
Love for sale
Is the heavy tread of the heavy feet
That belong to a lonesome cop
I open shop
When the moon so long has been gazing down
On the wayward ways of this wayward town
That her smile becomes a smirk
I go to work
Love for sale
Appetizing young love for sale
Love that's fresh and still unspoiled
Love that's only slightly soiled
Love for sale
Who, who will buy
Who would like to sample my supply
Who's prepared to pay the price
For a trip to paradise
Love for sale
Let the poets pipe of love in their childish way
I know every type of love better far than they
If you want the thrill of love, I've been through the mill of love
Old love, new love, every love but true love
Love for sale
Appetizing young love for sale
Well, if you want to buy my wares
Follow me and climb the stairs
Love for sale
Parle Plus Bas lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
[French release only]
Parle plus bas
Car on pourrait bien nous entendre
Le monde n'est pas pret pour tes paroles tendres
Le monde n'est pas pret pour nous
Il dirait tout simplement que nous sommes fous
Parle plus bas mais parle encore
De l'amour fou de l'amour fort
Parle plus bas
Car on pourrait bien nous surprendre
Tu sais tres bien
Qu'il ne voudrait jamais comprendre
Que dans nos coeurs moi, j'ai trouve
Ce que le monde refusait de nous donner
Parle plus bas mais parle encore
De l'amour fou de l'amour fort
Parle plus bas
Car on pourrait bien nous entendre
Tu sais tres bien que nous ne pouvons rien attendre
De ceux qui ont fait des chansons
Sans un "je t'aime" ou l'amour rime avec raison
Parle plus bas
Car on pourrait bien nous entendre
Le monde n'est pas pret pour tes paroles tendres
Le monde n'est pas pret pour nous
Il dirait tout simplement que nous sommes fous
Parle plus bas mais parle encore
De l'amour fou de l'amour fort
Parle plus bas
Car on pourrait bien nous surprendre
Tu sais tres bien
Qu'il ne voudrait jamais comprendre
Que dans nos coeurs moi, j'ai trouve
Ce que le monde refusait de nous donner
Parle plus bas mais parle encore
De l'amour fou de l'amour fort
Parle plus bas
Car on pourrait bien nous entendre
Tu sais tres bien que nous ne pouvons rien attendre
De ceux qui ont fait des chansons
Sans un "je t'aime" ou l'amour rime avec raison
Let Me Love Tonight lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Come good fortune
Let me love tonight
Pardon me from soulless searching
Spare me for another with a see-through heart
A heart as empty as my hands to be full
Let me love tonight
Come good fortune
Let me feel her skin
Don't deny for which I've hungered
Let me taste her mouth only slightly parted
With lips as full as mine have been denied
Let me love tonight
Come good fortune
Let me say goodbye
With no remorse
Thoughtless, callous
As lovely as she was she'll remain obscured
By the morning sun
But fortune come 'fore the day is done
Let me love tonight
Let me love tonight
Pardon me from soulless searching
Spare me for another with a see-through heart
A heart as empty as my hands to be full
Let me love tonight
Come good fortune
Let me feel her skin
Don't deny for which I've hungered
Let me taste her mouth only slightly parted
With lips as full as mine have been denied
Let me love tonight
Come good fortune
Let me say goodbye
With no remorse
Thoughtless, callous
As lovely as she was she'll remain obscured
By the morning sun
But fortune come 'fore the day is done
Let me love tonight
To See You lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
When was I supposed to make my entrance
How was I to know I had a chance
Now here's a guy who really thought he had it all
My heart was holding up the wall so I could dance
The last of my romances has concluded
Wars I've lost and loved have thus been fair
The battle scars I've gained have all alluded
To a decorated soldier of despair
Baby I just had to see you
Your face, your smile
Baby I just had to see you
Just for a while
I ran from love to love and lied with laughter
Not knowing that at some point I'd collide
With someone who would be my ever after
And happily would stay here by my side
Baby I just had to see you
Your face, your smile
Baby I just had to see you
Just for a while
How was I to know I had a chance
Now here's a guy who really thought he had it all
My heart was holding up the wall so I could dance
The last of my romances has concluded
Wars I've lost and loved have thus been fair
The battle scars I've gained have all alluded
To a decorated soldier of despair
Baby I just had to see you
Your face, your smile
Baby I just had to see you
Just for a while
I ran from love to love and lied with laughter
Not knowing that at some point I'd collide
With someone who would be my ever after
And happily would stay here by my side
Baby I just had to see you
Your face, your smile
Baby I just had to see you
Just for a while
Let's Just Kiss lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
They'll have to be returned
Keeping them would surely be remiss
The stars have acquiesced
By giving us this night
Let's just kiss
Intellect and thought
Are good enough for some
Why waste time with all there is to miss
In our quiet space
We'll babysit the moon
Let's just kiss
Nothing to erase
As the hour slows
Nothing to be judged or tried untrue
Handed us a case
What a case to close
It could take all night before we do
We won't have to try
Somehow we'll just know
A thousand years before us led to this
When we're finally through
We'll usher in the sun
Let's just kiss
Keeping them would surely be remiss
The stars have acquiesced
By giving us this night
Let's just kiss
Intellect and thought
Are good enough for some
Why waste time with all there is to miss
In our quiet space
We'll babysit the moon
Let's just kiss
Nothing to erase
As the hour slows
Nothing to be judged or tried untrue
Handed us a case
What a case to close
It could take all night before we do
We won't have to try
Somehow we'll just know
A thousand years before us led to this
When we're finally through
We'll usher in the sun
Let's just kiss
Heart Beyond Repair lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Pieces of a hole
Unrequited, not renowned
Never sought and never found
Through blood
Through soul
Now unfamiliar
Feelings of good being
Are light that's not worth seeing
Through blood
Through soul
Restless and distorted
Thoughts that underscore my night
Being wrong and seeing right
Through blood
Through soul
Heart beyond repair
All the edges worn and frayed
Magnifying love betrayed
Through blood
Through soul
Unrequited, not renowned
Never sought and never found
Through blood
Through soul
Now unfamiliar
Feelings of good being
Are light that's not worth seeing
Through blood
Through soul
Restless and distorted
Thoughts that underscore my night
Being wrong and seeing right
Through blood
Through soul
Heart beyond repair
All the edges worn and frayed
Magnifying love betrayed
Through blood
Through soul
Once lyrics -
Once
Is all I'll need to show you
Love making is an art
But once-made love
Won't be nearly enough
Once
I win your heart
Once
Upon a timeless romance
Love often was denied
But a thousand knights
Couldn't take me away
Once
I'm at your side
The world gets bigger as you look behind
Pouring in when you leave
You'll miss where you're going if you stare
I hope you're next to me
Watching it all go by
You'd get lost in all that world
Once
Just comes once in a lifetime
Then it becomes ago
All I ask is to kiss your lips
Once
And then you'll know
Once
And then you'll know
Is all I'll need to show you
Love making is an art
But once-made love
Won't be nearly enough
Once
I win your heart
Once
Upon a timeless romance
Love often was denied
But a thousand knights
Couldn't take me away
Once
I'm at your side
The world gets bigger as you look behind
Pouring in when you leave
You'll miss where you're going if you stare
I hope you're next to me
Watching it all go by
You'd get lost in all that world
Once
Just comes once in a lifetime
Then it becomes ago
All I ask is to kiss your lips
Once
And then you'll know
Once
And then you'll know
Learn To Love lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Lovers are dreamers and I've been walking in my sleep
When I awake I'll never take a chance that I can't keep
A thousand first times never add up to last
And I've been told a heart of gold melts away too fast
But I didn't count on you
Running into me
No I didn't count on you
I could learn to love you
I could get used to this
I could learn to love you
And the shelter of your kiss
The day's not as hard as trying to go through it alone
And in the end you can't depend on any love
But your own
Sometimes the impossible shows up undeclared
That's when the impossible
Shows you that it's possible
Maybe even beautiful
To double what you've dared
But I didn't count on you
Running into me
No I didn't count on you
I could learn to love you
I could get used to this
I could learn to love you
And the shelter of your kiss
When I awake I'll never take a chance that I can't keep
A thousand first times never add up to last
And I've been told a heart of gold melts away too fast
But I didn't count on you
Running into me
No I didn't count on you
I could learn to love you
I could get used to this
I could learn to love you
And the shelter of your kiss
The day's not as hard as trying to go through it alone
And in the end you can't depend on any love
But your own
Sometimes the impossible shows up undeclared
That's when the impossible
Shows you that it's possible
Maybe even beautiful
To double what you've dared
But I didn't count on you
Running into me
No I didn't count on you
I could learn to love you
I could get used to this
I could learn to love you
And the shelter of your kiss
Love Me Some You lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
The sky's blowin' on me
Pourin' water on my head
He ain't stoppin' soon
Black children hidin' me from light
White ones tryin' to kill me
So kill me
I love me some you
Can't seem to get my step
Walkin' in someone else's shoes
Too big for my feet
Just as soon wear none at all
Might cut my skin on the concrete
Cut me
I love me some you
I can make it through the night
But can I make it to the night
Somethin' ain't right with me
Can't figure what it is
Justify my way
My one side messin' with my head
My other side tryin' to leave me
Don't leave me
I love me some you
Pourin' water on my head
He ain't stoppin' soon
Black children hidin' me from light
White ones tryin' to kill me
So kill me
I love me some you
Can't seem to get my step
Walkin' in someone else's shoes
Too big for my feet
Just as soon wear none at all
Might cut my skin on the concrete
Cut me
I love me some you
I can make it through the night
But can I make it to the night
Somethin' ain't right with me
Can't figure what it is
Justify my way
My one side messin' with my head
My other side tryin' to leave me
Don't leave me
I love me some you
Much Love lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Next to the highway - a noisy place
Will anyone ever want me
Tiny place next to the highway
Could anyone ever want me
I don't have a car
My job pays poor
So much love in my heart
Looks as if I may have lost my allure
But I've got much love in my heart
My appetite for love's voracious
Will anyone entertain me
It's no wonder my bed seems spacious
Could anyone entertain me
Is it possible
For two of us
To have much love in our hearts
How it would be
Fortuitous
To find that much love in a heart
The heat of winter's chill on my face
Burning that's deep in my chest
It's cold and familiar in second place
Knowing I've done my best
The certain cause for my ambition
To dress an unyielding sadness
Flirting with an absent addition
To simmer away my madness
The curb that I climb
Is much too steep
To carry that heavy a heart
I'll stay where I stand
And just try to keep
Love in that heavy a heart
Away from the highway - a quiet place
Will I ever find my true love
Majestic and far from the highway
Could I have had my last love
I ride in a plane
My job pays high
Still so much love in my heart
At least I'll be sure of my place in the sky
With all this love in my heart
Will anyone ever want me
Tiny place next to the highway
Could anyone ever want me
I don't have a car
My job pays poor
So much love in my heart
Looks as if I may have lost my allure
But I've got much love in my heart
My appetite for love's voracious
Will anyone entertain me
It's no wonder my bed seems spacious
Could anyone entertain me
Is it possible
For two of us
To have much love in our hearts
How it would be
Fortuitous
To find that much love in a heart
The heat of winter's chill on my face
Burning that's deep in my chest
It's cold and familiar in second place
Knowing I've done my best
The certain cause for my ambition
To dress an unyielding sadness
Flirting with an absent addition
To simmer away my madness
The curb that I climb
Is much too steep
To carry that heavy a heart
I'll stay where I stand
And just try to keep
Love in that heavy a heart
Away from the highway - a quiet place
Will I ever find my true love
Majestic and far from the highway
Could I have had my last love
I ride in a plane
My job pays high
Still so much love in my heart
At least I'll be sure of my place in the sky
With all this love in my heart
In Love Again lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
There's a winding crack
Moving through my windshield
Like a vein in my head
The faster I go
The faster it winds
I'll get off the road
When my heart explodes
But not till then
I'm in love again
Given circumstance
I'm bounded by commitment
The whole way around
I usually know when I get to the end
As sure as I stand
The hour hand
Has stopped at ten
I'm in love again
There's an old blue shirt
Hanging in my closet
It's a favorite of mine
One day I looked and it just wasn't there
Now there's a red one
Hanging instead
It happens when
You're in love again
Amen...
I'm in love again
Moving through my windshield
Like a vein in my head
The faster I go
The faster it winds
I'll get off the road
When my heart explodes
But not till then
I'm in love again
Given circumstance
I'm bounded by commitment
The whole way around
I usually know when I get to the end
As sure as I stand
The hour hand
Has stopped at ten
I'm in love again
There's an old blue shirt
Hanging in my closet
It's a favorite of mine
One day I looked and it just wasn't there
Now there's a red one
Hanging instead
It happens when
You're in love again
Amen...
I'm in love again
Loved By Me lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Loved by me
You'll never know if you are loved by me
As pretty as your face is
I'd never round the bases
From a distance home is easier to see
I'd be fine
If I could find the nerve to say my line
Too bad I lack the fervor
'Cause maybe I could swerve her
Off her beaten path and onto mine
To publish my obsession
Of love without confession
Would be to share the spotlight with chagrin
I'd rather just admire
Fanning my own fire
And when it dies I'd live to love again
What to do
I've only started and already though
You may not ever meet me
Surely won't defeat me
I'll never know if I am loved by you
What to do
I've only started and already though
You may not ever meet me
Surely won't defeat me
Seems I'm just too yellow to pursue
Guess I'll never know if I am loved by you
You'll never know if you are loved by me
As pretty as your face is
I'd never round the bases
From a distance home is easier to see
I'd be fine
If I could find the nerve to say my line
Too bad I lack the fervor
'Cause maybe I could swerve her
Off her beaten path and onto mine
To publish my obsession
Of love without confession
Would be to share the spotlight with chagrin
I'd rather just admire
Fanning my own fire
And when it dies I'd live to love again
What to do
I've only started and already though
You may not ever meet me
Surely won't defeat me
I'll never know if I am loved by you
What to do
I've only started and already though
You may not ever meet me
Surely won't defeat me
Seems I'm just too yellow to pursue
Guess I'll never know if I am loved by you
Star Turtle 1 lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
My hands are red
Admittedly, the cross is mine
The time is come
Forsake the brine
Alone with the void for a thousand years
I am the first of the reptillian rocketeers
Doom shins its bitter brink
Its goblins casting stench to pave the way
I'm going off to seek the soul
Who'll teach me of the day
A boy will be born in the garden
I'll wait on a patch of green grass
Somehow he'll know to find me there
And place a star upon my crust
We'll trace the crescent's rim
Pawn's pursuit of deliverance
My soul a satchel for musical vim
Then I'll return to save my race
Admittedly, the cross is mine
The time is come
Forsake the brine
Alone with the void for a thousand years
I am the first of the reptillian rocketeers
Doom shins its bitter brink
Its goblins casting stench to pave the way
I'm going off to seek the soul
Who'll teach me of the day
A boy will be born in the garden
I'll wait on a patch of green grass
Somehow he'll know to find me there
And place a star upon my crust
We'll trace the crescent's rim
Pawn's pursuit of deliverance
My soul a satchel for musical vim
Then I'll return to save my race
How Do Ya'll Know lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Standin on top of my hill
How do ya'll know what it feels like
How can you tell me to make my bed
When I sleep on the ground
How can you say that you like my noise
When I haven't made a sound
I like peace time better than war
Spendin my money in the candy store
I like makin angels on the shore
How do ya'll know
Floatin on my cloud
How do ya'll know what it feels like
Yellin your sermon from the bottom of a glass
'Cause you know how it's done
Tellin me the troubles of the promised land
When I'm in it just for fun
I like to eat my pie before my meal
Make a snake with an orange peel
Say my prayers before I kneel
How do ya'll know
When I was walkin past your house
I didn't see nobody home
Ya'll musta been out buyin gold
When I was polishin chrome
Ridin in my spaceship
How do ya'll know what it feels like
What makes you think you can navigate
When you don't know where I'm flyin
Tellin me the facts about what I say
When you don't even know if I'm lyin
I like to wear white in the wintertime
Pay my penance before the crime
Have my reason without the rhyme
But how do ya'll know
How do ya'll know what it feels like
How can you tell me to make my bed
When I sleep on the ground
How can you say that you like my noise
When I haven't made a sound
I like peace time better than war
Spendin my money in the candy store
I like makin angels on the shore
How do ya'll know
Floatin on my cloud
How do ya'll know what it feels like
Yellin your sermon from the bottom of a glass
'Cause you know how it's done
Tellin me the troubles of the promised land
When I'm in it just for fun
I like to eat my pie before my meal
Make a snake with an orange peel
Say my prayers before I kneel
How do ya'll know
When I was walkin past your house
I didn't see nobody home
Ya'll musta been out buyin gold
When I was polishin chrome
Ridin in my spaceship
How do ya'll know what it feels like
What makes you think you can navigate
When you don't know where I'm flyin
Tellin me the facts about what I say
When you don't even know if I'm lyin
I like to wear white in the wintertime
Pay my penance before the crime
Have my reason without the rhyme
But how do ya'll know
Hear Me In The Harmony lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
The city don't even matter
I could be anywhere
I don't care
There's a whole lotta hard workin people
That could take my place
And it's easy to leave
When nobody knows your face
Just close your eyes
You can hear me in the harmony
I came up in New Orleans
Fixin what I could find
To peace my mind
I gave what I had to the winners
Just to get along
But it's really hard to sing
When nobody hears your song
Just close your eyes
You can hear me in the harmony
I thought I learned from getting burned
I bought a suit of armor and a silver cane
I found a little man who'd be proud of me
But he had to get up early
And I had to get back to my pain
I guess I'll keep on livin
One day they'll ask for me
I'll be free
And if there's a heaven
I'll be ready for my life to begin
But I wonder if I call
If they're gonna let me in
Open your eyes
You can hear me in the harmony
I could be anywhere
I don't care
There's a whole lotta hard workin people
That could take my place
And it's easy to leave
When nobody knows your face
Just close your eyes
You can hear me in the harmony
I came up in New Orleans
Fixin what I could find
To peace my mind
I gave what I had to the winners
Just to get along
But it's really hard to sing
When nobody hears your song
Just close your eyes
You can hear me in the harmony
I thought I learned from getting burned
I bought a suit of armor and a silver cane
I found a little man who'd be proud of me
But he had to get up early
And I had to get back to my pain
I guess I'll keep on livin
One day they'll ask for me
I'll be free
And if there's a heaven
I'll be ready for my life to begin
But I wonder if I call
If they're gonna let me in
Open your eyes
You can hear me in the harmony
Reason To Believe lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
I'm catchin a plane home
I can feel the wind on my hair
Maybe someone's out there
Someone just as bare
And if somebody stacked the cards
I hope they're stacked for me
You see...
I feel just like a kid on Christmas Eve
You may not know my reason
But I've got reason to believe
My eyes gettin heavy
Hope I can make a bed tonight
I'll go to sleep alone
My true love stays unknown
My life's an open book
And it starts on chapter nine
I'm fine...
A tangled web is easier to weave
You may not know the reason
But I've got reason to believe
I had my fortune told
By a fork tongued lady
She told me I'd amount to what I paid her
I left her feeling worse
Than I did when I came in
And I know more now than I'd find out later
I wish I had an easy mind
And a pretty girl to hold my hand
Seems the closer I get
The water isn't wet
This lonely life of mine
Is the best I've ever had
It's not bad...
My coat's the only thing that's on my sleeve
You may not know my reason
But I've got reason to believe
I can feel the wind on my hair
Maybe someone's out there
Someone just as bare
And if somebody stacked the cards
I hope they're stacked for me
You see...
I feel just like a kid on Christmas Eve
You may not know my reason
But I've got reason to believe
My eyes gettin heavy
Hope I can make a bed tonight
I'll go to sleep alone
My true love stays unknown
My life's an open book
And it starts on chapter nine
I'm fine...
A tangled web is easier to weave
You may not know the reason
But I've got reason to believe
I had my fortune told
By a fork tongued lady
She told me I'd amount to what I paid her
I left her feeling worse
Than I did when I came in
And I know more now than I'd find out later
I wish I had an easy mind
And a pretty girl to hold my hand
Seems the closer I get
The water isn't wet
This lonely life of mine
Is the best I've ever had
It's not bad...
My coat's the only thing that's on my sleeve
You may not know my reason
But I've got reason to believe
Just Like Me lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
It's three o'clock in the morning
I'm wonderin what to do to save the sun
The space that I take
Is more than I can give
And Lorelei's song has just begun
I'm gonna turn my head
Time eternity
I'm gonna find somebody
Just like me
Everybody's pretty
My brother won't rest till he knows I'm home
The choices I make
Are easier supposed
As my surviving striving not to roam
I'm gonna stand my ground
Make my guarantee
I'm gonna find somebody
Just like me
The world keeps spinning
Mountains vary but the valley's the same
The confidence I feel
As I balance on the ridge
Comes from the trueness of my aim
I'm gonna walk this road
As far as I can see
I'm gonna find somebody just like me
I'm gonna find somebody just like me
I'm wonderin what to do to save the sun
The space that I take
Is more than I can give
And Lorelei's song has just begun
I'm gonna turn my head
Time eternity
I'm gonna find somebody
Just like me
Everybody's pretty
My brother won't rest till he knows I'm home
The choices I make
Are easier supposed
As my surviving striving not to roam
I'm gonna stand my ground
Make my guarantee
I'm gonna find somebody
Just like me
The world keeps spinning
Mountains vary but the valley's the same
The confidence I feel
As I balance on the ridge
Comes from the trueness of my aim
I'm gonna walk this road
As far as I can see
I'm gonna find somebody just like me
I'm gonna find somebody just like me
Little Farley lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Little Farley
Why you hangin out so long
I can tell by the people
You're runnin with
That you're singin a different song
Little Farley
What you hidin in your drawer
Don't you know that I know what you're doin
And it ain't worth dyin for
Little Farley
Why you takin that to school
Livin out your life in Angola
Really don't sound too cool
Little Farley
Why you wanna take a life
That little girl they laid to rest today
She coulda been your wife
Little Farley
You know that don't belong to you
What you took in less than a minute
Mighta took him a month or two
Little Farley
A boy don't have to be a man
If you can't decide what you wanna be
Then I'm tellin you no one can
Little Farley
Think about it...
Why you hangin out so long
I can tell by the people
You're runnin with
That you're singin a different song
Little Farley
What you hidin in your drawer
Don't you know that I know what you're doin
And it ain't worth dyin for
Little Farley
Why you takin that to school
Livin out your life in Angola

Eyes Of The Seeker lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
I remember what my father said
He said "You don't slow down
You're gonna end up dead"
I remember what my brother said
He said "You're runnin blind
Like a bird flyin into the sun"... yeah
They might be older than me
But the eyes of the seeker
Are the ones that see
Old man with a new brown bag
Washed away his home
Hung over the nag
Threw the ring in the river
At the end of the street
Then he laid on down in the park
With the bag at his feet... yeah
He might think he's really free
But the eyes of the seeker
Are the ones that see
All... all ya'll
Try to push it further
Than you think your life is worth
Or you'll get nowhere
Spendin all your time with the devil
Grind... Your mind
'Stead of sittin home
Lyin in your bed
Sayin you just don't care... well...
Big Daddy from the back of the cell
Said "You wanna last
You gotta run like hell"
But Big Daddy must been runnin slow
He told me the view's real good
From the top of the row... yeah
It's overcase with an ill decree
And the eyes of the seeker
Are the ones that see
He said "You don't slow down
You're gonna end up dead"
I remember what my brother said
He said "You're runnin blind
Like a bird flyin into the sun"... yeah
They might be older than me
But the eyes of the seeker
Are the ones that see
Old man with a new brown bag
Washed away his home
Hung over the nag
Threw the ring in the river
At the end of the street
Then he laid on down in the park
With the bag at his feet... yeah
He might think he's really free
But the eyes of the seeker
Are the ones that see
All... all ya'll
Try to push it further
Than you think your life is worth
Or you'll get nowhere
Spendin all your time with the devil
Grind... Your mind
'Stead of sittin home
Lyin in your bed
Sayin you just don't care... well...
Big Daddy from the back of the cell
Said "You wanna last
You gotta run like hell"
But Big Daddy must been runnin slow
He told me the view's real good
From the top of the row... yeah
It's overcase with an ill decree
And the eyes of the seeker

Nobody Like You To Me lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Save time to collect my fortune
Paid upon arrival
But I don't know where I'll be goin
I'm travellin survival
Aw, girl
When I get there
If it ain't for free
I want you to know there's
Nobody like you to me
I've been scarred by my commitment
To tell them what I see
But I can't see that I've
Been blinded
By mediocrity
Aw, girl
If I dare
To change what it should be
I want you to know there's
Nobody like you to me
Maybe I should take it easy
Seems I'm the only one
But you won't let me rest my conscience
'Till all I know is done
Aw, girl
If I care
Enough to disagree
I want you to know there's
Nobody like you to me
Paid upon arrival
But I don't know where I'll be goin
I'm travellin survival
Aw, girl
When I get there
If it ain't for free
I want you to know there's
Nobody like you to me
I've been scarred by my commitment
To tell them what I see
But I can't see that I've
Been blinded
By mediocrity
Aw, girl
If I dare
To change what it should be
I want you to know there's
Nobody like you to me
Maybe I should take it easy
Seems I'm the only one
But you won't let me rest my conscience
'Till all I know is done
Aw, girl
If I care
Enough to disagree
I want you to know there's
Nobody like you to me
Boozehound lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
I used to be a boozehound
Spent my time downtown
Gettin round
Sittin in the barroom
Tryin to get another drink
"I think you've had enough"
"Come on... Just one more"
This time I ain't feelin so fine
Whatcha say we get to downin
Don't throw me just forget about the line
I wish I could be drownin
Sweet water... I ain't seen her in a while
I don't know if I can face her
I know she can always make me smile
If I can't outrun my chaser
I used to be a boozehound
Buzzin round midtown
Gettin loaded
Tryin to get a number
Feelin mighty good
"Is this guy bothering you?"
"No, no, I was just..."
All my life there ain't never been a drought
That's probably been my downfall
Even though, you know,
I might be passed out
I won't drop the high ball
I know where the river flows
And the lives that it devours
Ain't it great I can touch my nose
But I can't smell the flowers
I used to be a boozehound
Stumblin uptown
Gettin higher
Fallin off the barstool
Rememberin where I left the floor
"Say buddy, you need some help"
"No, I'm cool..."
Come and get me you can be my Boogeyman
You can catch me on the rebound
You may not fly like the Candyman can
But it's safer on the ground
Just one more trip to the fun house
They'll smother me with foam
See, my brother, that's the one house
That I can call my home
Spent my time downtown
Gettin round
Sittin in the barroom
Tryin to get another drink
"I think you've had enough"
"Come on... Just one more"
This time I ain't feelin so fine
Whatcha say we get to downin
Don't throw me just forget about the line
I wish I could be drownin
Sweet water... I ain't seen her in a while
I don't know if I can face her
I know she can always make me smile
If I can't outrun my chaser
I used to be a boozehound
Buzzin round midtown
Gettin loaded
Tryin to get a number
Feelin mighty good
"Is this guy bothering you?"
"No, no, I was just..."
All my life there ain't never been a drought
That's probably been my downfall
Even though, you know,
I might be passed out
I won't drop the high ball
I know where the river flows
And the lives that it devours
Ain't it great I can touch my nose
But I can't smell the flowers
I used to be a boozehound
Stumblin uptown
Gettin higher
Fallin off the barstool
Rememberin where I left the floor
"Say buddy, you need some help"
"No, I'm cool..."
Come and get me you can be my Boogeyman
You can catch me on the rebound
You may not fly like the Candyman can
But it's safer on the ground

Never Young lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
I wish you could have lived my life
No way to know
The fun I had
I ride in limousines
But it means nothing
I roll down the tinted glass
To see outside
I like to see how much I pass
On my roller coaster ride
It's hard to remember
Seems I was never young
I wish you could have been right there
My future was the end of time
And all the girls I needed
Never knew me
I've fallen deep inside my well
Without a pail
And if you come to rescue me
I'll tell my fairy tale
It's hard to remember
Seems I was never young
What curtains fall
On childhood stages
That never rise
To show the crowd
Things I drag
Throughout the ages
Never seem
To speak out loud
I wish that you were here right now
I guess I passed my chance away
A pallid grey is mostly what I see now
I live my life
And never stop to
Close the doors
And all time I never thought
Of living yours
It's hard to remember
Seems I was never young
No way to know
The fun I had
I ride in limousines
But it means nothing
I roll down the tinted glass
To see outside
I like to see how much I pass
On my roller coaster ride
It's hard to remember
Seems I was never young
I wish you could have been right there
My future was the end of time
And all the girls I needed
Never knew me
I've fallen deep inside my well
Without a pail
And if you come to rescue me
I'll tell my fairy tale
It's hard to remember
Seems I was never young
What curtains fall
On childhood stages
That never rise
To show the crowd
Things I drag
Throughout the ages
Never seem
To speak out loud
I wish that you were here right now
I guess I passed my chance away
A pallid grey is mostly what I see now
I live my life
And never stop to
Close the doors
And all time I never thought
Of living yours
It's hard to remember
Seems I was never young
Mind On The Matter lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Mama told me not to try to be nobody
I listened to her
Mama told me I'd grow up to be somebody
Looka here
Savin money's hard when you can't save your soul
I'll get through it
Tryin to dig myself out of this mighty hole
Listen to what I say
Got my mind on the matter
Sure as I tell ya
Now you know that's right
I look down at my hands and
I see labor burns
It's a part of livin
Keepin my feet on the ground while the world turns
It's all on me
Got my mind on the matter
Sure as I tell ya
Now you know that's right
I listened to her
Mama told me I'd grow up to be somebody
Looka here
Savin money's hard when you can't save your soul
I'll get through it
Tryin to dig myself out of this mighty hole
Listen to what I say
Got my mind on the matter
Sure as I tell ya
Now you know that's right
I look down at my hands and
I see labor burns
It's a part of livin
Keepin my feet on the ground while the world turns
It's all on me
Got my mind on the matter
Sure as I tell ya
Now you know that's right
City Beneath The Sea lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Take me... Take me
To the city beneath the sea
The river will wrap around me
And the music will let me be
You can find me on the neutral ground
On the corner of Fleur-de-lis
Please... somebody won't you take me
To the city beneath the sea
Take me... Take me
Where the night outshines the day
You can hear the tap of soda caps
And smell the ©toufe©
You can fais do do with Jacamo
Or fi na ne 'till three
Please... somebody won't you take me
To the city beneath the sea
How... How long
Can I stay away
How... How long
Can I stay away
Take me... Take me
To the Meters and the Mardi Gras
They betcha where you got your shoes
And they eat their oysters raw
Pork Chops dances all night long
But he won't dance for free
Please... somebody won't you take me
To the city beneath the sea
To the city beneath the sea
The river will wrap around me
And the music will let me be
You can find me on the neutral ground
On the corner of Fleur-de-lis
Please... somebody won't you take me
To the city beneath the sea
Take me... Take me
Where the night outshines the day
You can hear the tap of soda caps
And smell the ©toufe©
You can fais do do with Jacamo
Or fi na ne 'till three
Please... somebody won't you take me
To the city beneath the sea
How... How long
Can I stay away
How... How long
Can I stay away
Take me... Take me
To the Meters and the Mardi Gras
They betcha where you got your shoes
And they eat their oysters raw
Pork Chops dances all night long
But he won't dance for free
Please... somebody won't you take me
To the city beneath the sea
Star Turtle 4 lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
How soon I will delight
How straight and good
Scorched by vibrant core
I'll sprinkle scrapings
Upon the lapping blue
No sooner than I return
Will my fruit turn the stink into sweet
The blue into yellow and green
Time home will quicken
And time spent be saved
The dust from my duty
Will remain in my satchel
I think... forever
Now I'll return to save my race
How straight and good
Scorched by vibrant core
I'll sprinkle scrapings
Upon the lapping blue
No sooner than I return
Will my fruit turn the stink into sweet
The blue into yellow and green
Time home will quicken
And time spent be saved
The dust from my duty
Will remain in my satchel
I think... forever
Now I'll return to save my race
She lyrics - Harry Connick Jr
Lay a hand
Upon the water
Well within, well within
Wash away
To fair morrow
Ride ahead, ride ahead
Make your mark
Upon the rock
For another one
Ashes tell tales
Fire gives faith
Burn it up burn it up
Burn it up burn it up
She would waste not, not in struggle
No other shall there ever be
And what she is to love, listen oh my brother
Is as the wind to mercury
Don't you pray
Of a heartless town
Or you'll be forced to flee
Don't you live
In a soulless city
Or you'll have to leave
You don't need
No place of birth
Hither to come home
Many a night
Were you ready for your bed
But your bed not ready for you
She would give of herself
And ask not return or eternity
And what she'd offer, listen oh my brother
Is as the wind to mercury
And she'd hold not, of another man
No other shall there ever be
And whom she would hold
Listen oh my brother
Is as the wind to mercury
Upon the water
Well within, well within
Wash away
To fair morrow
Ride ahead, ride ahead
Make your mark
Upon the rock
For another one
Ashes tell tales
Fire gives faith
Burn it up burn it up
Burn it up burn it up
She would waste not, not in struggle
No other shall there ever be
And what she is to love, listen oh my brother
Is as the wind to mercury
Don't you pray
Of a heartless town
Or you'll be forced to flee
Don't you live
In a soulless city
Or you'll have to leave
You don't need
No place of birth
Hither to come home
Many a night
Were you ready for your bed
But your bed not ready for you
She would give of herself
And ask not return or eternity
And what she'd offer, listen oh my brother
Is as the wind to mercury
And she'd hold not, of another man
No other shall there ever be
And whom she would hold
Listen oh my brother
Is as the wind to mercury
