Nol Coward — Medley

As recorded at Las Vegas in June, 1955 I'll see you again Whenever spring breaks through again Time may lie heavy—between But what has been Is past forgetting Dance, dance, dance little lady Youth is fleeting to the rhythm Beating in your mind Dance, dance, dance little lady So obsessed with second best No rest you’ll ever find Time and tide and trouble Never, never wait Let the cauldron bubble Justify your fate Dance, dance, dance little lady Dance, dance, dance little lady Leave tomorrow behind The life you lead sets all your nerves a-jangle You love affairs are in a hopeless tangle Though you're a child, dear Your life's a wild typhoon! In lives of leisure The craze for pleasure Steadily grows; Cocktails and laughter But what comes after? Nobody knows! You're weaving love into a mad jazz pattern Ruled by Pantaloon Poor little rich girl Don't drop a stitch too soon We'll be as happy and contented as birds upon a tree High above the mountains and the sea We'll bill and we'll coo-oo-oo And sorrow will never come Oh, will it ever come true Our room with a view? Some day I'll find you Moonlight behind you True to the dream I am dreaming As I draw near you you'll smile a little smile For a little while We shall stand Hand in hand I'll follow my secret heart My whole life through I'll keep all my dreams apart Till one comes true No matter what price is paid What stars may fade above I'll follow my secret heart Till I find love For I believe That since my life began The most I've had is just A talent to amuse Heigh-ho If love were all Play, orchestra play Play something light and sweet and gay For we must have music, we must have music To drive our fears away While our illusions swiftly fade for us Let’s have an orchestra score In the confusion the years have made for us Serenade for us just once more Life needn’t be grey Although it’s changing day by day Though few old dreams may decay Play, orchestra play
