This day and age we're living in
Век, в котором мы живём,
Gives cause for apprehension
Становится причиной опасений,
With speed and new invention
Из-за скорости, новых изобретений,
And things like fourth dimension.
И вещей, наподобие четвёртого измерения.

My heart is sad and lonely
For you I pine, for you dear only
Why haven`t you seen it?
I`m all for you, body and soul

I spend my days in longing
And wondering why it`s me you`re wronging
I tell you I mean it

No more blues
I'm going back home
No more blues
I promise no more to roam
Home is where the heart is
The fun and parties
My heart's been right there all along
No more fears

DON'T GO AWAY

Words and Music by Margo Guryan



Don't go away
Now that you walked into my life

'Neath the stars, at bazaars
Often I've had to caress men
Don't be sad, I must add, that they meant no more than chess-men
How long has this been?
How long has this been going on?
I could cry
Salty tears
Going on

I ain't got no fancy bill of goods to sell
Ask me who I'm talkin bout I'll tell you

You...the one that got me to see and turned round
All upside down
Who has got me in a tizzy
You know who, I mean you

Though my world may go awry
In my heart 't will ever lie
Just the echo of a sigh

I'll see you again whenever spring breaks through again
Time may lie heavy between but what has been is past forgetting
This sweet memory across the years will come to me

I'm gonna laugh you right out of my life,
Laugh, and forget this affair
Guess I was foolish
To care.

So I'm gonna dance you right out of my dreams,
Try to be carefree and gay
I guess I'll learn to play

Just a gigolo, everywhere you go
People know the part you're playing.
Paid for every dance, selling each romance,
Every night some heart betraying.
There will come a day, youth will pass away,
Then what will they say about you?
When the end comes, I know,
They'll say "Just a gigolo,"

Just a little lovin', early in the mornin'
Beats a cup of coffee for startin' off the day.
Just a little lovin', when the world is yawnin',
Makes you wake up feelin' good things are coming your way

This old world wouldn't be half as bad,
It wouldn't be half as sad,
If each and ev'rybody in it had

Last night when we were young
Love was a star, a song unsung
Life was so new, so real so right
Ages ago last night

Today the world is old
You flew away and time grew cold
Where is that star that shone so bright

Laughing boy (ha ha ha ha ha)
That's what they used to call you
Before you found a new love to take my place
(ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha)
Laughing boy (ha ha ha ha ha)
That's what they used to call you
You always wore a smile upon your face
(ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha)

Life is just a bowl of cherries
Don't take it serious
Life's too mysterious

You work, you save, you worry so
But you can't take your dough
When you go, go, go

The night is like a lovely tune,
Beware my foolish heart!
How white the ever constant moon,
Take care, my foolish heart!
There's a line between love and fascination,
That's hard to see on an evening such as this,
For they both give the very same sensation.

You deserve a boy who's willin', namely me.
One who'd love to raise my chillun, namely me.
Comin' home when the work is over at the close of day.
I'd be with you all the way, to love, honor, and obey.

'Cause you deserve two arms to hold you, namely mine.
There to comfort and enfold you, Rain or shine.
I deserve someone sweet and tender, bashful and shy and true.

You're not where you are
Only where you want to be
You're not what you've seen
Only what you could've been

And out of sight
Then out of mind
Go

Star eyes,
That to me is what your eyes are,
Soft as stars in April skies are,
Tell me some day you'll fulfill
Their promise of a thrill.

Star eyes,
Flashing eyes in which my hopes rise,

Dizzy, he was screaming
Next to O.P. who was beaming
Monk was thumping
Suddenly in walked Bud and then they got into something

O.P. blew a mean axe
Mr. Byas blew a mean sax
Monk was thumpin'

Supper time
I should set the table
Cause its supper time
Somehow I'm not able
Cause that man of mine
Ain't comin' home no more

Supper time

TAKE FIVE
Paul Desmomd/Dave Brubeck/Iola Brubeck
Carmen McRea w The Dave Brubeck Quartet
rec 15/12/61 rel 65

Won't you stop and take a little time out with me,
Just take five.
Stop your busy day and take the time out to see

There was a moon out in space
But a cloud drifted over its face
You kissed me and went on your way
The night we called it a day

I heard the song of the spheres
Like a minor lament in my ears
I hadn't the heart left to pray

We wandered through the summertime
And drifted into fall
We never thought of winter at all
How foolishly we tossed away
The buttercups, the time -
Who'd have thought
We'd have no more songs to sing
Hills to climb?

When the swallows
Come back to Capistrano
That's the day
You promised to come back to me

When you whispered
"Farewell" in Capistrano
Twas the day
