(If I had to choose just one day)
If I had to choose just one day to last my whole life through
It would surely be that Sunday; the day that I met you
Newborn whippoorwills were calling from the hills
Summer was a coming in but fast
Lots of daffodils were showing off their skills
Nodding all together, I can almost hear them whisper
Go on kiss him; go on and kiss him
If I had to choose one moment to live within my heart
It would be that tender moment recalling how we started
Darling it would be when you smiled at me
That way, that Sunday, that Summer
[Musical Interlude]
Go on kiss him; go on and kiss him
And if I had to choose just one moment
To live within my heart it would surely be that moment
Recalling how we started
Darling it would be when you smiled at me
That way, that Sunday, that summer
(If I had to choose just one day)
Orange Colored Sky lyrics - Natalie Cole
I was walking along
Mindin' my business
When out of the orange colored sky
Flash
Bam
Ali-ca-zam
Wonderful you came by
I was hummin' a tune
Drinkin' in sunshine
When out of that orange colored view
Wham
Bam
Ali-ca-zam
I gotta look at you
One look and I yelled "timber"
Watch out for flying glass
'Cause the ceiling fell in
And the bottom fell out
I went into a spin
And I started to shout,
"I've been hit, this is it, this is it."
I was walking along
Mindin' my business
When love came and hit me in the eye
Flash
Bam
Ali-ca-zam
Out of the orange colored sky
Well, one look and I yelled "timber"
Watch out for flying glass
'Cause the ceiling fell in
And the bottom fell out
I went into a spin
And I started to shout,
"I've been hit, this is it, this is it."
I was walkin' along
Mindin' my business
When love came and hit me in the eye
Flash
Bam
Ali-ca-zam
Out of that orange colored purple striped pretty green polka-dot sky
Flash
Bam
Ali-ca-zam
And goodbye
Mindin' my business
When out of the orange colored sky
Flash
Bam
Ali-ca-zam
Wonderful you came by
I was hummin' a tune
Drinkin' in sunshine
When out of that orange colored view
Wham
Bam
Ali-ca-zam
I gotta look at you
One look and I yelled "timber"
Watch out for flying glass
'Cause the ceiling fell in
And the bottom fell out
I went into a spin
And I started to shout,
"I've been hit, this is it, this is it."
I was walking along
Mindin' my business
When love came and hit me in the eye
Flash

Ali-ca-zam
Out of the orange colored sky
Well, one look and I yelled "timber"
Watch out for flying glass
'Cause the ceiling fell in
And the bottom fell out
I went into a spin
And I started to shout,
"I've been hit, this is it, this is it."
I was walkin' along
Mindin' my business
When love came and hit me in the eye

Out of that orange colored purple striped pretty green polka-dot sky

A Medley: For Sentimental Reasons / Tenderly / Autumn Leaves lyrics - Natalie Cole
[For Sentimental Reasons]
I love you, for sentimental reasons
I hope you do believe me
I'll give my heart
I love you, and you alone were meant for me
Please give your loving heart to me
And say we'll never part
I think of you every morning
Dream of you every night
Darling I'm never lonely
Whenever you're in sight
I love you, for sentimental reasons
I hope you do believe me
I've given you my heart...
[Tenderly]
The evening breeze, caressed the trees
Tenderly
The trembling trees, embraced the breeze
Tenderly
Then you and I
Came wandering by
And lost in the sight, were we
The shore was kissed, by sea and mist
Tenderly
I can't forget, how two hearts met
Breathlessly
Your arms open wide, and close me inside
You took my lips, you took my love
So tenderly
Your arms open wide, and close me inside
You took my lips, you took my love
So tenderly
[Autumn Leaves]
The falling leaves drift by the window
The autumn leaves of red and gold
I see your lips, the summer kisses
The sun-burned hands I used to hold
Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I'll hear Old Winter's song
But I miss you most of all, my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall
Mais la vie spare ceux qui saiment
Tout doucement sans faire de bruit
But I miss you most of all, my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall...
I love you, for sentimental reasons
I hope you do believe me
I'll give my heart
I love you, and you alone were meant for me
Please give your loving heart to me
And say we'll never part
I think of you every morning
Dream of you every night
Darling I'm never lonely
Whenever you're in sight
I love you, for sentimental reasons
I hope you do believe me
I've given you my heart...
[Tenderly]
The evening breeze, caressed the trees
Tenderly
The trembling trees, embraced the breeze
Tenderly
Then you and I
Came wandering by
And lost in the sight, were we
The shore was kissed, by sea and mist
Tenderly
I can't forget, how two hearts met
Breathlessly
Your arms open wide, and close me inside
You took my lips, you took my love
So tenderly
Your arms open wide, and close me inside
You took my lips, you took my love
So tenderly
[Autumn Leaves]
The falling leaves drift by the window
The autumn leaves of red and gold
I see your lips, the summer kisses
The sun-burned hands I used to hold
Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I'll hear Old Winter's song
But I miss you most of all, my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall
Mais la vie spare ceux qui saiment
Tout doucement sans faire de bruit
But I miss you most of all, my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall...
Straighten Up And Fly Right lyrics - Natalie Cole
A buzzard took a monkey for a ride in the air
Monkey thought that everything was on the square
The buzzard tried to throw the monkey off his back
But the monkey grabbed his neck and said "Now listen, jack"
"Straighten up and fly right
"Straighten up and stay right
"Straighten up and fly right
"Cool down papa, don't you blow your top
"Ain't no use in divin'
"What's the use of jivin'
"Straighten up and fly right
"Cool down papa, don't you blow your top."
The buzzard told the monkey "You are chokin' me
"Release your hold, and I will set you free"
The monkey looked the buzzard right dead in the eye
And said "Your story's so touching but it sounds like a lie"
Straighten up and fly right
Straighten up and stay right
Straighten up and fly right
Cool down papa don't you blow your top
[Interlude]
Straighten up and fly right
Straighten up and stay right
Straighten up and fly right
Cool down papa don't you blow your top
Ain't no use in divin'
What's the use of jivin'
You better, straighten up and fly right
Cool down papa don't you blow your top
Fly right
Monkey thought that everything was on the square
The buzzard tried to throw the monkey off his back
But the monkey grabbed his neck and said "Now listen, jack"
"Straighten up and fly right
"Straighten up and stay right
"Straighten up and fly right
"Cool down papa, don't you blow your top
"Ain't no use in divin'
"What's the use of jivin'
"Straighten up and fly right
"Cool down papa, don't you blow your top."
The buzzard told the monkey "You are chokin' me
"Release your hold, and I will set you free"
The monkey looked the buzzard right dead in the eye
And said "Your story's so touching but it sounds like a lie"
Straighten up and fly right
Straighten up and stay right
Straighten up and fly right
Cool down papa don't you blow your top
[Interlude]
Straighten up and fly right
Straighten up and stay right
Straighten up and fly right
Cool down papa don't you blow your top
Ain't no use in divin'
What's the use of jivin'
You better, straighten up and fly right
Cool down papa don't you blow your top
Fly right
Avalon lyrics - Natalie Cole
I found my love at Avalon
Beside the bay
I left my love at Avalon
And sailed away
I dream of him at Avalon
From dusk until dawn
And so I think I'll travel on
To Av-va-lon
Yes I found my love at Avalon
Beside the bay
I left my love at Avalon
And sailed away
Oh I, dream of him at Avalon
From dusk until dawn
And so I think I'll travel on
To Av...va-lon...
Beside the bay
I left my love at Avalon
And sailed away
I dream of him at Avalon
From dusk until dawn
And so I think I'll travel on
To Av-va-lon
Yes I found my love at Avalon
Beside the bay
I left my love at Avalon
And sailed away
Oh I, dream of him at Avalon
From dusk until dawn
And so I think I'll travel on
To Av...va-lon...
Don't Get Around Much Anymore lyrics - Natalie Cole
Missed the Saturday dance
Heard they crowded the floor
Couldn't bear it without you
Don't get around much anymore
Thought I'd visit the club
Got as far as the door
They'd have asked me about you
Don't get around much anymore
Darling, I guess my mind's more at ease
But nevertheless, why stir up memories
Been invited on dates
Might have gone but what for
Awfully different without you
Don't get around much anymore
Heard they crowded the floor
Couldn't bear it without you
Don't get around much anymore
Thought I'd visit the club
Got as far as the door
They'd have asked me about you
Don't get around much anymore
Darling, I guess my mind's more at ease
But nevertheless, why stir up memories
Been invited on dates
Might have gone but what for
Awfully different without you
Don't get around much anymore
Too Young lyrics - Natalie Cole
They tried to tell us we're too young
Too young to really be in love
They say that loves a word
A word we've only heard
But can't begin to know
The meaning of
And yet we're not too young to know
This love will last though years may go
And then some day they may recall
We were not too young at all
And yet we're not too young to know
That this love will last though years may go
And then some day they may recall
We were not too young at all
Too young to really be in love
They say that loves a word
A word we've only heard
But can't begin to know
The meaning of
And yet we're not too young to know
This love will last though years may go
And then some day they may recall
We were not too young at all
And yet we're not too young to know
That this love will last though years may go
And then some day they may recall
We were not too young at all
Nature Boy lyrics - Natalie Cole
There was a boy...
A very strange enchanted boy
They say he wondered very far, very far
Over land and sea
A little shy and sad of eye
But very wise was he
And then one day
One magic day, passed my way
And as 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"
"The greatest thing you'll ever learn
is just to love and be loved in return"
A very strange enchanted boy
They say he wondered very far, very far
Over land and sea
A little shy and sad of eye
But very wise was he
And then one day
One magic day, passed my way
And as 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"
"The greatest thing you'll ever learn
is just to love and be loved in return"
Darling, Je Vous Aime Beaucoup lyrics - Natalie Cole
Darling, je vous aime beaucoup
Je ne sais pas what to do
You know you've completely
Stolen my heart
Morning, noon and nighttime too
Toujours wondering what to do

Wish my French were good enough

But I hope that you compris
All the little things you mean to me

You know you've completely
Stolen my heart

Almost Like Being In Love lyrics - Natalie Cole
What a day this has been
What a rare mood I'm in
Why it's almost like being in love
There's a smile on my face
For the whole human race
Why it's almost like being in love
there's a music of life; seems to be
Like a bell that is ringing for me
And from the way that I feel
When that bell starts to peel
I would swear I was falling, swear I was falling
- It's almost like being in love
[Instrumental]
The music of life seems to be
Like a bell that is ringing just for me
And from the way that I feel
When that bell starts to peel
I would swear i was falling, swear I was falling
- It's almost like being in love
What a rare mood I'm in
Why it's almost like being in love
There's a smile on my face
For the whole human race
Why it's almost like being in love
there's a music of life; seems to be
Like a bell that is ringing for me
And from the way that I feel
When that bell starts to peel
I would swear I was falling, swear I was falling
- It's almost like being in love
[Instrumental]
The music of life seems to be
Like a bell that is ringing just for me
And from the way that I feel
When that bell starts to peel
I would swear i was falling, swear I was falling
- It's almost like being in love
Thou Swell lyrics - Natalie Cole
Thou swell, thou witty, thou sweet, thou grand
Wouldst kiss me pretty? Wouldst hold my hand?
Both thine eyes are cute too, what they do to me
Hear me holler, I choose a sweet lollapaloosa in thee
I'd feel so rich in a hut for two
Two rooms and kitchen I'm sure would do
Give me just a plot of, not a lot of land
And thou swell, thou witty, thou grand
Wouldst kiss me pretty? Wouldst hold my hand?
Both thine eyes are cute too, what they do to me
Hear me holler, I choose a sweet lollapaloosa in thee
I'd feel so rich in a hut for two
Two rooms and kitchen I'm sure would do
Give me just a plot of, not a lot of land
And thou swell, thou witty, thou grand
Non Dimenticar lyrics - Natalie Cole
Non Dimenticar,
Means don't forget your
my darling
don't forget to be
all you mean to me
Non Dimenticar,
My love is like a star
my darling
Shining bright and clean
just because you're here
please do not forget
That our lips have meant
and I've held you tightly
Was it dreams or though
my heart felt is ...
or just a night here
Non Dimenticar,
although you travel far
my darling
it's my heart you owe
so I'll wait alone
Non Dimenticar...
Means don't forget your
my darling
don't forget to be
all you mean to me
Non Dimenticar,
My love is like a star
my darling
Shining bright and clean
just because you're here
please do not forget
That our lips have meant
and I've held you tightly
Was it dreams or though
my heart felt is ...
or just a night here
Non Dimenticar,
although you travel far
my darling
it's my heart you owe
so I'll wait alone
Non Dimenticar...
Our Love Is Here To Stay lyrics - Natalie Cole
It's very clear
Our love is here to stay
Not for a year
But ever and a day
The radio, and the telephone
And the movies that we know
May just be passing fancies
And in time may go...
But, oh, my dear
Our love is here to stay
Together we're
Going a long, long way
In time the Rockies may tumble
Gibraltar may crumble
They're only made of clay
But, our love is here
To stay
In time the Rockies may tumble
Gibraltar may crumble
They're only made of clay
But, our love is here
Our love is here
Our love is here to stay
Our love is here to stay
Not for a year
But ever and a day
The radio, and the telephone
And the movies that we know
May just be passing fancies
And in time may go...
But, oh, my dear
Our love is here to stay
Together we're
Going a long, long way
In time the Rockies may tumble
Gibraltar may crumble
They're only made of clay
But, our love is here
To stay
In time the Rockies may tumble
Gibraltar may crumble
They're only made of clay
But, our love is here
Our love is here
Our love is here to stay
Unforgettable lyrics - Natalie Cole
Unforgettable, that's what you are
Unforgettable, though near or far
Like a song of love that clings to me
How the thought of you does things to me
Never before has someone been more
Unforgettable in every way
And forevermore (and forevermore)
That's how you'll stay (that's how you'll stay)
That's why darling, it's incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too
[Musical interlude]
No, never before has someone been more
Ooh unforgettable (unforgettable)
In every way (in every way)
And forevermore (and forevermore)
That's how you'll stay (that's how you'll stay)
That's why darling it's incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too.
Unforgettable, though near or far
Like a song of love that clings to me
How the thought of you does things to me
Never before has someone been more
Unforgettable in every way
And forevermore (and forevermore)
That's how you'll stay (that's how you'll stay)
That's why darling, it's incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too
[Musical interlude]
No, never before has someone been more
Ooh unforgettable (unforgettable)
In every way (in every way)
And forevermore (and forevermore)
That's how you'll stay (that's how you'll stay)
That's why darling it's incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too.
