If I May

Nathaniel Adams Coles (March 17, 1919 – February 15, 1965), known professionally as Nat King Cole, was a musician who first came to prominence as a leading jazz pianist. He owes most of his popular musical fame to his soft baritone voice, which he used to perform in big band and jazz genres. He was one of the first black Americans to host a television variety show, and has maintained worldwide popularity since his death. more »

Struggling with If I May? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!

I'd like to love you, every day
If I may (If I may)
And dream dreams of you, every night
If I might (If I might)
And if I may, I'd like to say
I wish that you were mine
If I had you, all I would do
Is adore you all of the time

I'd like to tell you of your charms
Every day, if I may
I'd like to hold you in my arms
Every night, if I might
You're the object of my affections
And if you have no objections
I'd like to love you, night and day
If I may
