Lyrics:
side,
Biggest attraction by far!
I'm just another blues of nineteen forty four,
When they start to play me they all ask for more.
Who'd ever guess
Ever wonder 'bout what he's doing
How it all turned to lies?
Sometimes I think that it's better
To never ask why
Where there is desire, there
Peaked at # 2 in 1940, with competing versions by Dinah Shore at # 17 and by Bobby Byrne
at # 19
Later charted by Perry Como (duet with Eddie
daily façade but then
I just end up getting hurt again
By myself (myself)
I ask why, but in my mind
I find I can't rely on myself (myself)
I ask
It's such a beautiful night to make a change in our lives
East Anglian sky, empty bottle of wine
I got you by my side, talkin' 'bout love and life
How much I'd bluster to ask it why
One must live and one must die
I wish I had a talking book
By my side so I could look
And touch and feel
Won't you wear my ring around your neck
To tell the world I'm yours, by heck
Let them see your love for me
And let them see by the ring around
then
I just end up getting hurt again
By myself
(Myself)
I ask why
(Myself)
I can't rely on myself
(Myself)
I ask why
(But in my mind I find)
goes again)
But you know she'll never ask you please again (there she goes again)
Now take a look, there's no tears in her eyes
She won't take it
he's here amongst us
The age of fire's at hand
Stand by for exciter
Salvation is his task
Stand by for exciter
Salvation bids to ask
Everything
look down from the sky
And stay by my cradle
till morning is nigh.
Be near me, Lord Jesus,
I ask Thee to stay,
Close by me forever,
and love me,
Parts of me were made by you
And planets keep their distance too
The moon's got a grip on the sea
And you're gonna live forever in me
I guarantee,
lost within
I put on my daily façade but then
I just end up getting hurt again by myself
(Myself)
I ask why
(But in my mind, I find)
I can't rely
will ask the moon where it shined upon you last,
And shake my head and laugh and say it all went by too fast.
You'll fly away, but take my hand
Please don't ask me how I know
The times before I met you long ago
If I could sit quite still
And times could pass me by
I'd sit quite still
he's here amongst us
The age of fire's at hand
Stand by for exciter
Salvation is his task
Stand by for exciter
Salvation bids to ask
Everything

daily façade but then
I just end up getting hurt again
By myself (myself)
I ask why, but in my mind
I find I can't rely on myself (myself)
I ask
Two by two, they go walking by
Hand in hand, they watch me cry
[two by two, hand in hand]
Lonely nights, I dream you're there
Morning sun and you're
When I was small, and Christmas trees were tall,
We used to love while others used to play.
Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by,
Someone
the sky
And stay by my cradle 'till morning is nigh
Be near me Lord Jesus, I ask Thee to stay
Close by me forever and love me, I pray
Bless all
Follow me back to Louisville
And I'll see by the light in your eye
While I'm away I hope you'll try
To figure the reason made me fly
Check the post
It's not so easy loving me
It gets so complicated
All the things you've gotta be
Everything's changin'
But you're the truth
I'm amazed by all
to the past/ climb aboard and hear you ask/ darling come inside
chorus 1:memories, memories/ sweet, sweet memories/ of days gone by/ that make me cry/
