Oh, how we danced on the night we were wed
We vowed our true love, though a word wasn't said
The world was in bloom, there were stars in the skies
Except for the few that were there in your eyes.
Dear, as I held you close in my arms
Angels were singing a hymn to your charms
Two hearts gently beating, murmuring low
"Darling, I love you so."
The night seemed to fade into blossoming dawn
The sun shone anew but the dance lingered on
Could we but recall that sweet moment sublime
We'd find that our love is unaltered by time
------------instrumental break--------------
Darling, I love you so
The night seemed to fade into blossoming dawn
The sun shone anew but the dance lingered on
Could we but recall that sweet moment sublime
We'd find that our love is unaltered by time.
Darling I love you so.

Irene, goodnight,
Irene, goodnight,
Goodnight, Irene,
Goodnight, Irene,
I'll see you in my dreams.
Last Saturday night I got married,
Me and my wife settled down,
Now me and my wife are parted,
I'm gonna take another stroll in town.
(repeat chorus)
Sometimes I live in the country,
Sometimes I live in town,
Sometimes I have a great notion,
To jump in the river and drown.
(end song with chorus repeat)
Ev'ry time it rains, it rains pennies from heaven,
Don'tcha know each cloud contains pennies from heaven?
(You'll find your fortune fallin' all over town)
(be sure that your umbrella )
Is upside down.
Trade them for a package of sunshine and flowers
If you want the things you love, you must have showers
(So when you hear it thunder) Don't run under a tree
There'll be pennies from heaven for you and me.
(Ev'ry time it rains, it rains) Pennies from heaven
(Don'tcha know each cloud contains) Pennies from heaven?
(You'll find your fortune fallin') All over town
(Be sure that your umbrella) Is upside down.
Trade them for a package of sunshine and flowers
If you want the things you love you must have showers,
(So when you hear it thunder) Don't run under a tree,
There'll be pennies from heaven for you and for me..
WORDS AND MUSIC BY ARTHUR JOHNSTON and JOHN BURKE
Don't know why,
There's no sun up in the sky
Stormy weather,
Since my gal and I ain't together
Keeps raining all the time.
Life is bare,
Gloom and misery everywhere
Stormy weather,
Just can't get my poor old self together
I'm weary all the time
Every time,
So weary all of the time.
When she went away
The blues walked in and then they met me,
If she stays away
That old rocking chair is bound to get me,
All I do is pray
The Lord above will let me
Just walk in that sun again.
Can't go on
Everything I had is gone,
Stormy weather
Since my gal and I ain't together,
Keeps raining all the time
Keeps raining all the time....
WORDS by TED KOELER, MUSIC by HAROLD ARLEN
She may be weary,
Women do get weary
Wearing the same shabby dress.
And when she's weary
Try a little tenderness.
You know she's waiting,
Just anticipating
Things she may never possess,
While she's without them
Try a little tenderness....
It's not just sentimental
She has her grief and care,
And a word that's soft and gentle
Makes it easier to bear.
You won't regret it,
Women don't forget it,
Love is their whole happiness.....
It's all so easy
Try a little tenderness.
You'll never know just how much I miss you,
You'll never know just how much I care,
And if I tried, I still couldn't hide
My love for you....
You ought to know, for havn't I told you so
A million or more times?
You went away and my heart went with you,
I speak your name in my every prayer;
If there is some other way
To prove that I love you,
I swear I don't know how.
You'll never know if you don't know now.
(You went away and my heart went with you,
I speak your name in my every prayer);
If there is some other way
To prove that I love you,
I swear I don't know how.
You'll never know if you don't know now.
You'll never know if you don't know now.

Goodnight, my love, the tired old moon is descending.
Goodnight, my love, my moment with you is now ending.
It was so heavenly...holding you....close to me,
It will be heavenly, to hold you again in a dream.
The stars above, have promised to meet us tomorrow.
Till then, my love, how dreary the new day will seem.....
So for the present dear, we'll have to part.
Sleep tight my love. goodnight my love;
Remember that you're mine, Sweetheart.
Goodnight, my love, your mommy is kneeling beside you.
Goodnight, my love, to Dreamland the Sandman will guide you.
Come now you sleepyhead...close your eyes....go to bed,
My precious sleepyhead, you mustn't play peek-a-boo.
Goodnight, my love, your little Dutch dolly is yawning.
Goodnight, my love, your teddy-bear's called it a day.....
Your doggy's fast asleep, my but he's smart....
Sleep tight my love, goodnight my love,
God bless you, pleasant dreams sweetheart.
