First Verse 'Tis many years today since we were married, just twenty years of happiness and bliss, and from each others side we've never tarried, I'm mighty proud, my dear, to tell you this. Second Verse Do you recall the day I brought the ring, dear? love's sweetest story then to you I told, remember when I placed it on your finger, I said that you were worth your weight in gold. Chorus You're the same old girl, I really must admit that you're the same old girl, you haven't changed a bit, altho' today you're somewhat gray, it's easy to be seen, you're sweeter now at forty than you were at sweet sixteen, and you're the same old girl for years, my dear, it seems that you're the same old girl I've worshipped in my dreams, and I love you as I never loved before, what's more: even tho' we're young no longer, bless your heart, my love is stronger, for the same old girl.

First Verse Nothing but shadows and sorrow, where sunshine and gladness should be, I'm longing just for tomorrow, then I know you'll come back to me. Second Verse I know I'll never forget you, tho' you think that you will forget, God is so just he won't let you, and some day he'll make you regret. Chorus Some day you'll be sorry then you'll plead in vain, when you've learned to yearn, you'll turn right back to me again, think of all the sorrow, you have made me bear, but God will send you back in the end, some day I'll make you care.

It Takes A Little Rain With The Sunshine To Make The World Go Round
Year
Words by Ballard MacDonald Music by Harry Carroll Shapiro, Bernstein and Co. Broadway and 39th St. New York |
First Verse A dear little girl and a dear little boy looked out at the drizzling rain, and tears filled her eyes and ran down her cheeks, like the drops on the window pane; so he said: "Don't you cry, you will see bye and bye, that a rainbow bright will shine on high, there are always rain clouds in the sky, and I'll tell you sweetheart why:" Second Verse The dear little girl and the dear little boy grew up as most children do, and one summer day they went wandering away, on the road that makes one of two; she was sweet he was good, and they loved as they should, till a dark cloud came, do what they could, but she said she'd make up if he would, for she always understood: Chorus 'Cause it takes a little rain with the sunshine, like the tear drops come with the smiles; but the troubles never come all at one time, just wait a little while, remember, flowers couldn't grow without rain, dear, happiness we share with the pain, dear, 'cause it takes a little rain with the sunshine to make the world go around.

In The Heart Of The City That Has No Heart
Year 1913
Words by Thos. S. Allen Music by Joseph M. Daly Daly Music Publisher 665 Washington Street Boston, Mass. |
First Verse She wanted to roam so she left the old home, The old people's hearts were sore, she longed for the sights and the bright city lights where hundreds had gone before. She went to the heart of the city and mingled with strangers there, but nobody said "You are being misled" for what did the stranger care. Second Verse A year passes by, there's a tear in her eye, and sorrow is on her brow, Oh! what would she do if the old people knew, she couldn't go back home now. Her dear mother said when they parted "Remember your good old name" then her daddy said "Rather we'd see you dead than bring us disgrace and shame." Chorus In the heart of the city that has no heart that's where they meet, and that's where they part, the current of vice had proved too strong so the poor little girlie just drifted along nobody cared if she lived or died nobody cared if she laughed or cried, she's just lost a sister and nobody's missed her, she's there in the city where there's no pity in the city that has no heart.

Shades Of Night
Year 1916
Music by L. Wolfe Gilbert Music by Anatol Friedland and Malvin Franklin Jos. W. Stern and Co. 102-104 W. 38th Street New York |
First Verse When all nature goes to sleep, Master Cupid starts to peep; love chimes ringing love's sweet song, happy hours, for the birds and flowers; time for love is drawing near, mating time is here; now that day is done, two hearts beat as one, while the moon and stars appear. Second Verse Hark to the songs of the whippoor wills, while the sun sets over the hills touch of nature makes all kin, hearts are filled with pleasure every lover's treasure; children close their drowsy eyes, dew falls from the skies, seems from everywhere, sweethearts here and there, life's a dream of Paradise Chorus Shades of night are falling, hear the love birds calling from trees above, sweethearts silhouetting, time and care forgetting, in the spell of love. Twinkle, twinkle little love star, twinkle while the moon beams with delight, nighttime casting shadows over golden meadows love time comes with shades of night. CLICK HERE TO PLAY THIS SONG |

First Verse From afar in the sky stars were gleaming the moon softly shone from above, happy was I in my dreaming, happy in dreams of love; in your eyes then the lovelight was beaming, yearning was my heart for thee, clasped in your arms "One Wonderful Night" You told me you loved me. Second Verse Seems I hear in the twilight your calling, I watch, dear, and wait there for you, softly like dew that is falling, comes back a love we knew; then I know by the throb of my heart, dear, just why I'm longing for thee, I can't forget "One Wonderful night" You told me you loved me. Chorus Love me, love me again, won't you love me again? My heart's yearning, I'm lonely, I love, love you only; dreaming, dreaming of you, always dreaming of you, take me back once again, dear, to "One wonderful night." CLICK HERE TO PLAY THIS SONG |
