I was five and she was sixWe rode on horses made

One afternoon I came to hearYou sing a soft song into

In me you see a man aloneHeld by the habit of

my bags are packed, I'm ready to goStanding here

She's a fool and don't I know it?But a fool can

strolled the lane togetherLaughed at the rain togetherSang love's

This lovely day will lengthen into eveningWe'll sigh goodbye to all

I used to walk with you along the avenue, our hearts

or nothing at allHalf a love never appealed to

London by night is a wonderful sightThere is magic abroad in

If I loved youTime and again I would try to sayAll

I cover the waterfrontI'm watching the seaWill the one I love

Why was I born? Why am I livin'?What do I get?

Farewell, farewell to loveShe's gone and I'm through with loveMy schemes,

Beautiful musicDangerous rhythmIt's something daring, the ContinentalA way of dancing that's

I was mighty blueThought my life was through'Til the heavens openedAnd

Bali Ha'i may call you any night, any dayIn your heart

It's like singin' to empty tablesOr a gallery full of ghostsOr

Fly me to the moonLet me play among the starsLet me

I begged her, I pleaded, I told her: Baby, come out
