Pack up all my cares and woes
Feeling low here I go
Bye bye blackbird
Where somebody waits for me
Sugar sweet so is she
Bye bye blackbird
No one seems to love or understand me
And all the hard luck stories they keep handing me
Where somebody shines the light
I’ll be coming on home tonight
Bye bye blackbird
Nobody seems to love or understand me
And all the hard luck stories they keep on handing me
Where somebody shines the light
I’m coming on home tonight
Bye bye blackbird
Just for a thrill
Hmm, you turn the sunshine into rain
Hmm, baby, for a thrill
You gave my heart nothin’ but pain
Hmmm, to me, you were a pride and a joy
But to you, I was only a toy
A plaything, just to toss around at will
Hmmm, just for a thrill
You know that you did me wrong
Just for a thrill
You made my life just one sad song
But now you’re free
And you’re havin’ your fun
But to me, you’re still the only one
Just for a thrill, hmmm
You made my heart stand still
You give your hand to me and then you say, “Hello”
And I can hardly speak, my heart is beating so
And anyone can tell you think, you know me well
Well, you don’t know me
No, you don’t know the one who dreams of you at night
And longs to kiss your lips and longs to hold you tight
To you I’m just a friend that’s all I’ve ever been
No, you don’t know me
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
A chance that you might love me too
You give your hand to me and then you say, “Goodbye”
I watched you walk away beside some lucky guy
Oh, you’ll never, never know the one who loved you so
No, you don’t know me
What’s it all about, Alfie?
Is it just for the moment we live?
What’s it all about when you sort it out, Alfie?
Are we meant to take more than we give
Or are we meant to be kind?
And if only fools are kind, Alfie
Then I guess it’s wise to be cruel
And if life belongs only to the strong, Alfie
What will you lend on an old golden rule?
As sure as I believe there’s a heaven above, Alfie
I know there’s something much more
Something even non-believers can believe in
I believe in love, Alfie
Without true love we just exist, Alfie
Until you find the love you’ve missed you’re nothing, Alfie
When you walk let your heart lead the way
And you’ll find love any day, Alfie, Alfie
Those autumn leaves go past my window
Those autumn leaves of red and gold
I see your lips those summer kisses
Those sunburned hands I used to hold
Since you went away the nights grow long
And soon I’ll yearn old winter’s song
But I’ll miss you most of all, my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall
Someone to hold me tight
That would be very nice
Someone to love me right
That would be very nice
Someone to understand
Each little dream in me
Someone to take my hand
And be a team with me
So nice, life would be so nice
If one day I’d find
Someone who would take my hand
And samba through life with me
Someone to cling to me
Stay with me right or wrong
Someone to sing to me
Some little samba song
Someone to take my heart
And give his heart to me
Someone who’s ready to
Give love a start with me
Oh yeah, that would be so nice
I could see you and me, that would be nice
Someone to hold me tight
That would be very nice
Someone to love me right
That would be very nice
Someone to understand
Each little dream in me
Someone to take my hand
To be a team with me
So nice, life would be so nice
If one day I’d find
Someone who would take my hand
And samba through life with me
Someone to cling to me
Stay with me right or wrong
Someone to sing to me
Some little samba song
Someone to take my heart
And give his heart to me
Someone who’s ready to
Give love a start with me
Oh yes, that would be so nice
Shouldn’t we, you and me?
I can see it will be nice…
