Ella Fitzgerald - Night and Day 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PEM_63_P0CY

Night And Day

Like the beat beat beat of the tom-tom

When the jungle shadows fall

Like the tick tick tock of the stately clock

As it stands against the wall

Like the drip drip drip of the raindrops

When the summer shower is through

So a voice within me keeps repeating you, you, you

Night and day, you are the one

Only you beneath the moon and under the sun

Whether near to me, or far

It's no matter darling where you are

I think of you

Night and day, day and night, why is it so

That this longing for you follows wherever I go

In the roaring traffic's boom

In the silence of my lonely room

I think of you

Night and day, night and day,

Under the hide of me

There's an oh such a hungry yearning burning inside of me

And this torment won't be through

Till you let me spend my life making love to you

Day and night, night and day

Night and day

Under the hide of me

There's an oh such a hungry yearning burning inside of me

And this torment won't be through

Till you let me spend my life making love to you

Day and night

Night and day.

Ella Fitzgerald- If you ever change your mind

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uuVnbI5zLM8

I would bring you flowers in the morning
Wild roses as the sun begins to shine
Sweet perfume in tiny jeweled caskets
If I thought you'd ever change your mind

I would take you where the music's sweetest
And feed you winter fruits and summer wine
Show you things you've only read in story books
If I thought you'd ever change your mind

I would bring you happiness
Wrapped up in a box and tied with a yellow bow
I would bring you summer rain and rainbow skies to make your garden grow
And in the winter snow my songs would keep you from the cold

But what use of flowers in the morning
When the garden they should grow in is not mine
And what use is sunshine if I'm crying
And my falling tears are mingled with the wine

I would bring you happiness
Wrapped up in a box and tied with a yellow bow
I would bring you rainbow skies
And summer rain to make your garden grow
And in the winter snow my songs would keep you from the cold

I would bring you flowers in the morning
Wild roses when the sun begins to shine
Winter fruits and summer wine
Sweet perfume and columbine
If I thought you'd ever change your mind
If I thought you'd ever change your mind

Ella Fitzgerald - You Do Something To Me

Ella Fitzgerald - You Do Something To Me

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b28br15q0qY&feature=share

I was mighty blue

Thought my life was through

'Til the heavens opened

And I gazed at you

Won't you tell me, dear

Why, when you appear,

Something happens to me

And the strangest feeling goes through me?

You do something to me

Something that simply mystifies me

Tell me, why should it be,

You have the power to hypnotize me?

Let me live 'neath your spell

Do do that voodoo that you do so well

For you do something to me

That nobody else could do

Ella Fitzgerald - I've Got a Crush on You (1950)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WP1p3mUKDw&feature=share

How glad the many millions
Of Timothys and Williams
Would be, to capture me
But you had such persistence
You wore down my resistance
I fell, and it was swell
You're my big and brave and handsome Romeo
How I won you I shall never, never know
It's not that you're attractive
But oh, my heart grew active
When you came into view

I've got a crush on you, sweetie pie
All the day and nighttime, hear me sigh
I never had the least notion
That I could fall with such emotion
Could you coo, could you care
For a cunning cottage we could share
The world will pardon my mush
Cause I've got a crush, my baby, on you

Could you coo, could you care
For a cunning cottage we could share
The world will pardon my mush
Cause I've got a crush, my baby, on you

Pennies in a stream
Falling leaves, a sycamore
Moonlight in Vermont

Icy finger-waves
Ski trails on a mountainside
Snowlight in Vermont

Telegraph cables, they sing down the highway
And travel each bend in the road
People who meet in this romantic setting
Are so hypnotized by the lovely

Ev'ning summer breeze
Warbling of a meadowlark
Moonlight in Vermont

Telegraph cables, how they sing down the highway
And they travel each bend in the road
People who meet in this romantic setting
Are so hypnotized by the lovely

Ev'ning summer breeze
The warbling of a meadowlark
Moonlight in Vermont

Moonlight in Vermont
Moonlight in Vermont

Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong - Nearness Of You

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BEdhPfs8--Q&feature=share

It's not the pale moon that excites me

That thrills and delights me, oh no

It's just the nearness of you

It isn't your sweet conversation

That brings this sensation, oh no

It's just the nearness of you

When you're in my arms and I feel you so close to me

All my wildest dreams came true

I need no soft lights to enchant me

If you'll only grant me the right

To hold you ever so tight

And to feel in the night the nearness of you

Ella Fitzgerald - Dream a Little Dream of Me

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SDfe9dn59Mk&feature=related

Stars shining bright above you

Night breezes seem to whisper I love you

Birds singing in the sycamore tree

Dream a little dream of me

Say nighty night and kiss me

Just hold me tight and tell me you miss me

While I'm alone and blue as can be

Dream a little dream of me

Stars fading but I linger on dear

(Oh how you linger on)

Still craving your kiss

(How you crave my kiss)

Now I am longing to linger till dawn dear

Just sitting there

(Give me a little kiss)

Dreams till sunbeams find you

Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you

But in your dreams whatever they be

Dream a little dream of me

Stars fading but I linger on dear

Still craving your kiss

Ya I am longing to linger till dawn dear

Just saying this

Sweet dreams when dreaming

(Till sunbeams find you keep dreamin')

Gotta keep dreamin'

(Leave your worries behind you)

But in your dreams whatever they be

You gotta make me a promise

Promise to me

You'll dream dream a little dream of me.

Ella Fitzgerald - Misty

Ella Fitzgerald singing Misty in TV.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQouJdvB80U&feature=share

Look at me, I'm as helpless as a kitten up a tree;
And I feel like I'm clingin' to a cloud,
I can' t understand
I get misty, just holding your hand.
Walk my way,
And a thousand violins begin to play,
Or it may be the sound of your hello,
That music I hear,
I get misty, whenever you're near.
You can say that you're leading me on
And it's just what I want you to do,
Don't you notice how hopelessly I'm lost?
That's why I'm following you.
On my own,
When I wander through this wonderland alone,
Never knowing my right foot from my left
My hat from my glove
I'm too misty, and too much in love.
Too misty,
And too much...
In love.....look at me....

I hate to see that evening sun go down
I hate to see that evening sun go down
'Cause, my baby, he's gone left this town
Feelin' tomorrow like I feel today
If I'm feelin' tomorrow like I feel today
I'll pack my truck and make my give-a-way
St. Louis woman with her diamond ring
Pulls that man around by her
If it wasn't for her and her
That man I love would have gone nowhere, nowhere
I got the St. Louis Blues
Blues as I can be
That man's got a heart like a rock cast in the sea
Or else he wouldn't have gone so far from me
I love my baby like a school boy loves his pie
Like a Kentucky colonel loves his mint'n rye
I love my man till the day I die
by W.C. Handy

Ella Fitzgerald - Cry me a river

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Gn9A-kdsRo&feature=share

You were my sun

You were my earth

But you didn't know all the ways I loved you, no

So you took a chance

And made other plans

But I bet you didn't think that they would come crashing down,no

You don't have to say, what you did,

I already know, I found out from him

Now there's just no chance, for you and me,

there'll never be

And don't it make you sad about it

You told me you loved me

Why did you leave me, all alone

Now you tell me you need me

When you call me, on the phone

Girl I refuse, you must have me confused

With some other guy

Your bridges were burned,

and now it's your turn to cry

Cry me a river

Cry me a river, girl

Cry me a river

Cry me a river, girl, yea yea

I know that they say

That somethings are better left unsaid

It wasn't like you only talked to him and you know it

(Don't act like you don't know it)

All of these things people told me

Keep messing with my head

(Messing with my head)

You should've picked honesty

Then you may not have blown it

(Yea..)

You don't have to say, what you did,

(Don't have to say, what you did)

I already know, I found out from him

(I already know, uh)

Now there's just no chance, for you and me,

there'll never be

(No chance, you and me)

And don't it make you sad about it?

You told me you loved me

Why did you leave me, all alone

(All alone)

Now you tell me you need me

When you call me, on the phone

(When you call me on the phone)

Girl I refuse, you must have me confused

With some other guy

(I'm not like them baby)

Your bridges were burned, and now it's your turn

(It's your turn)

To cry

Cry me a river

(Go on and just)

Cry me a river, girl

(Go on and just)

Cry me a river

(Baby go on and just)

Cry me a river, girl, yea yea

Oh

(Oh)

The damage is done

So I guess I be leaving

Oh

(Oh)

The damage is done

So I guess I be leaving

Oh

(Oh)

The damage is done

So I guess I be leaving

Oh

(Oh)

The damage is done

So I guess I be... leaving

You don't have to say, what you did,

(Don't have to say, what you did)

I already know, I found out from him

(I already know, uh)

Now there's just no chance, for you and me, there'll never be

(No chance, you and me)

And don't it make you sad about it

Cry me a river

(Go on and just)

Cry me a river, girl

(Baby go on and just)

Cry me a river

(You can go on and just)

Cry me a river, girl, yea yea

Cry me a river

(Baby go on and just)

Cry me a river, girl

(Go on and just)

Cry me a river

(Cause I've already cried)

Cry me a river, girl, yea yea

(Ain't gonna cry no more, yea-yea)

Cry me a river

Cry me a river, oh 3x

Cry me a river, oh

(Cry me, cry me)

Cry me a river, oh

(Cry me, cry me)

Cry me a river, oh

(Cry me, cry me)

Cry me a river, oh

(Cry me, cry me)

Cry me a river, oh

(Cry me, cry me)

Cry me a river, oh

(Cry me, cry me)

Cry me a river

(Cry me, cry me)

You are the sunshine of my life
That's why I'll always be around,
You are the apple of my eye,
Forever you'll stay in my heart

I feel like this is the beginning,
Though I've loved you for a million years,
And if I thought our love was ending,
I'd find myself drowning in my own tears.

You are the sunshine of my life,
That's why I'll always stay around,
You are the apple of my eye,
Forever you'll stay in my heart,

You must have known that I was lonely,
Because you came to my rescue,
And I know that this must be heaven,
How could so much love be inside of you?

You are the sunshine of my life, yeah,
That's why I'll always stay around,
You are the apple of my eye,
Forever you'll stay in my heart.

Love has joined us,
Let's think sweet love.
