My Funny

 Valentine - Chet Baker

"......you make me smile with my heart ...."

Of course....

I do.....

I get along without you very well

Chet Baker

I get along without you very well

Of course I do

Except when the soft rains fall

And drip from the leaves, then I recall

The thrill of being sheltered in your arms

Of course I do

But I get along without you very well

I’ve forgotten you just like I should

Of course I have

Except to hear your name

Or someone’s laugh that is just the same

But I’ve forgotten you just like I should

What a guy

What a fool I am

To think my breaking heart could kid the moon

What’s in store

Should I phone once more

No it’s best that I stick to my tune

I get along without you very well

Of course I do

Except perhaps in Spring

But I should never think of Spring

For that would surely break my heart in two

Dicono tutti....

così.....

I've Never Been In Love Before

Chet Baker

I’ve never been in love before

now all at once it’s you

it’s you forever more

I’ve never been in love before

I thought my heart was safe

I thought I knew the score

But this is wine

It’s all too strange and strong

I’m full of foolish song

And out my song must pour

So please forgive this helpless haze I’m in

I’ve really never been

in love before

But this is wine

It’s all too strange and strong

I’m full of foolish song

And out my song must pour

So please forgive this helpless haze I’m in

I’ve really never been

in love before

There's...

Alone Together

Chet Baker

Parts of my anatomy....

are not controlled by me

The music's magic spell

Leaves me a mess of quivering jelly.....

Line for Lyons

Chet Baker

Listen to them play our song

How they shock my poor brain with that electric refrain

I hear a buzzin', just like a dozen doorbells

Everytime I hear our song

I get weak in the knees my heart pumps up a breeze

Sending a stream to every extremity.

Parts of my anatomy are not controlled by me

The music's magic spell

Leaves me a mess of quivering jelly.

Even on a violin oh how those sweet dulcet tones pull marrow out of my bones

I must confess, it leaves me a mess, our song

Parts of my anatomy are not controlled by me

The music's magic spell

Leaves me a mess of quivering jelly.

Even on a violin oh how those sweet dulcet tones pull marrow out of my bones

I must confess, it leaves me a mess, our song does

I love to hear our song 'cause

It grooves me so our song

Line For Lyons

Stan Getz - Chet Baker Quintet 1983

Don't you love farce.....

My fault I fear

I thought that you'd want what I want,

Sorry my dear.....

Send in The Clowns

Live At Ronnie Scott's

Chet Baker - Van Morrison

Isn't it rich,

Aren't we a pair

Me here at last on the ground,

You in mid-air

Send in the clowns

Isn't it bliss,

Don't you approve

One who keeps tearing around,

One who can't move

Where are the clowns?

Send in the clowns

Just when I stopped opening doors

Finally knowing the one that I wanted was yours

Making my entrance again with my usual flair

Sure of my lines - no one is there

Don't you love farce,

My fault I fear

I thought that you'd want what I want,

Sorry my dear

But where are the clowns

There ought to be clowns

Quick send in the clowns

What a surprise,

Who could foresee?

I've come to feel about you what you felt about me

Why only now when I see that you've drifted away

What a surprise, what a clichй

Isn't it rich, isn't it queer

Losing my timing this late in my career

And where are the clowns

Quick send in the clowns

Don't bother they're here.

Send in the clowns

Sarah Vaughan

Perdiamoci.....

e riperdiamoci

eternamente........

Let's Get Lost

Chet Baker

Let's get lost, lost in each other's arms

Let's get lost, let them send out alarms

And though they'll think us rather rude

Let's tell the world we're in that crazy mood.

Let's defrost in a romantic mist

Let's get crossed off everybody's list

To celebrate this night we found each other, mmm, let's get lost

Let's defrost in a romantic mist

Let's get crossed off everybody's list

To celebrate this night we found each other, mm, let's get lost

oh oh, let's get lost'

I΄m a fool....

to want you

Elvis Costello - Chet Baker

I’m fool to want you

I’m fool to want you

To want a love that can’t be true

A love that’s there for others too

I’m fool to hold you

Such a fool to hold you

To seek a kiss not mine alone

To share a kiss the Devil has known

Tine and time again I said I’d leave you

Time and time again I went away

But then would come the time when I would need you

And one again these words I’ll have to say

I’m a fool to want you

Pity me, I need you

I know it’s wrong, it must be wrong

But right or wrong I can’t get along

Without you

I can’t get along without you

We loved.....

we laughed, we cried

Suddenly love died

The story ended

But we're just friends....

Just Friends

CHET BAKER

Just friends, lovers no more

Just friends but not like before

To think of what we've been

And not to kiss again

Seems like pretending

It isn't the ending

Two friends drifting apart

Two friends but one broken heart

We loved, we laughed, we cried

Suddenly love died

The story ended

But we're just friends

Two friends drifting apart

Two friends but one broken heart

We loved, we laughed, we cried

Suddenly love died

The story ended

But we're just friends

"Just Friends" 1983

Stan Getz - Chet Baker 

just friends, lovers no more

just friends, but not like before

to think of what we've been and not to kiss again

seems like pretending it isn't the ending

two friends drifting apart

two friends, but one broken heart

we loved, we laughed, we cried, and suddenly love died
