Abbey Lincoln piosenki

I know why I've waited, know why I've been blue, Prayed each night for someone exactly like you. Why should we spend money on a show or two. No one does those love scenes exactly like you. You make me feel so grand, I'd like to hand the world to you. You seem...

When the stars were strung, Was the first song that was sung Lightning up a world Made for a boy and girl And love was new As morning dew The first song that I knew Told of skies for ever blue Clouds that disappear My darling dear The first song I heard Was...

For all we know we may never meet again Before you go make this moment sweet again We won't say 'Good night' until the last minute I'll hold out my hand and my heart will be in it For all we know this may only be a dream We come and go like a ripple on a stre...

For heaven's sake let’s fall in love It’s no mistake to call it love An angel’s holding hands with me How heavenly heaven can be Here is romance for us to try Here is a chance we can’t deny While heaven’s giving us a break Let’s fall in love for heaven’s sake...

Up in Harlem ev'ry Saturday night When the highbrows get together its just too tight They all congregates at an all night strut And what they do is tut-tut-tut Old Hannah Brown from 'cross town Gets full of corn and starts breakin' 'em down Just at the break...

Sunday is gloomy, my hours are slumberless Dearest the shadows I live with are numberless Little white flowers will never awaken you Not where the black coach of sorrow has taken you Angels have no thought of ever returning you Would they be angry if I thought...

Them that's got shall get Them that's not shall lose So the Bible says and it still is news Mama may have Papa may have But God bless the child That's got his own , that's got his own Yes, the strong gets more While the weak ones fade Empty pockets, well don'...

Looking in your eyes Kind of heaven eyes Closing both my eyes Waiting for surprise To see the heaven In your eyes is not so far 'Cause I'm not afraid To try and go it To know the love And the beauty Never known before I'll leave it up to you to show it And...

It seems like happiness is just a thing called Joe He's got a smile that makes the lilacs wanna grow He's got a way that makes the angels heave a sigh When they see little Joe passing by Sometime the cabin's gloomy and the table’s bare But when he kisses me i...

Hey Lordy mama I heard you wasn't feeling' good They're spreadin' dirty rumors All around the neighborhood They say you're mean and evil And don't know what to do That's the reason that he's gone And left you black and blue Hey yeah Tell me what you gonna do n...

Somewhere there's music How faint the tune Somewhere there's heaven How high the moon There is no moon above When love is far away too Till it comes true That you love me as I love you Somewhere there's music It's where you are Somewhere there's heaven How ne...

I am dejected. I am depressed. Yet resurrected and sailing the crest. Why this elation, mixed with deflation? What explanation? I am in love. Such conflicting questions rise Around in my brain Should I order cyanide Or order champagne? Oh, what is this sudde...

Whenever skies look grey to me, And trouble begins to brew, Whenever the winter winds become too strong, I concentrate on you. When fortune cries "nay, nay" to me, And people declare "you're through," Whenever the blues become my only song, I concentrate on y...

I ran around, with my own little crowd The usual laughs, not often, but loud And in the world that I knew I didn't know about you Chasing after the ring, on the merry-go-round Just taking my fun, where it could be found And yet what else could I do I didn't k...

I'm so unhappy, left all alone Ain't got nobody to love now The man I long for is not so strong for me He's not an angel, but I don't care Perhaps a change'll come some day Whatever he is, I want to be his way Don't want my mammy, I don't need a friend My he...

Are the stars out tonight? I don't know if it's cloudy or bright 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 some crowded avenue You are here, s...

I'll be seeing you in all the old familiar places That this heart of mine embraces all day through In some small cafe, the park across the way The children's carousel, The chestnut trees, the wishing well I'll be seeing you in every lovely summer's day In eve...

~~~♫♫♫ ~~~ I'm in love, I'm in love There's a feeling of gladness Mingled with sadness All this state of mind ... Lover please be kind To my heart I'm in love, so in love With the whispering breeze Birds in the trees Children out at play And the break of day...

Said a scarecrow swinging on a pole, To some blackbirds sittin' on a fence, Oh, the lord gave me a soul, But, forgot to give me common sense. Said the blackbirds, well, well, well. What the thunder would you do with common sense? Said the scarecrow,would be p...

Blow ill wind, blow away Let me rest today You're blowin' me no good, no good Go ill wind, go away Skies are oh, so grey Around my neighborhood, and that's no good You're only misleadin' the sunshine I'm needin' Ain't that a shame It's so hard to keep up wit...
