New York Medley: Let's Say Goodbye / Teach Me to Dance Like Grandma / We Were Dancing / Sigh No More / Ziguener / You Were There / Nevermore / I'll See You Again / Mad Dogs and Englishmen |
Let our affair be a gay thing |
And when these hours have flown |
Then, without forgetting happiness that is past |
There’ll be no regretting fun that didn’t quite last |
Let’s look on love as a plaything |
All these sweet moments we’ve known |
Mustn’t be degraded |
When the thrill of them has faded |
Let’s say goodbye and leave it alone |
Teach me to dance |
Like grandma used to dance |
I refuse to dance— |
Blues |
Blackbottoms, Charlestons—what wind blew them in? |
Monkeys do them in |
Zoos |
Back in the past the dancing singified |
Just a dignified |
Glow |
They didn’t have to be so strong |
Though they revolved the whole night long |
Teach me to dance like grandma used to dance |
Sixty summers ago |
We were dancing |
And the gods must have found it entrancing |
For they smiled |
On a moment undefiled |
By the care and woe that mortals know— |
We were dancing |
And the music and lights were enhancing our desire |
When the world caught on fire |
She and I were dancing |
Sigh no more, sigh no more |
Great clouds of sorrow fill the sky no more |
Joy is your troubador |
Sweet and beguiling ladies, sigh no more |
Sigh no more |
Sweet and beguiling ladies, sigh no more |
Play to me beneath the Summer moon |
Zigeuner |
Zigeuner |
Zigeuner! |
Now you have me in your power |
Play to me for just an hour |
Zigeuner! |
You were there |
Your eyes looked into mine and faltered |
Everywhere, the colour of the whole world altered |
False became true |
My universe tumbled in two |
The earth became heaven for you were there |
Nevermore. |
Nevermore |
Can life be quite the same |
The light and shadows change |
All the old familiar world is strange |
Evermore, evermore |
Our hearts are in the flame |
Others may regain their freedom |
But for you and me |
Never, never, more |
Though our worlds may go awry |
Though the years my tears may dry |
I shall love you till I die |
Out in the midday |
Out in the midday |
Out in the midday |
Out in the midday |
Out in the midday |
Out in the midday |
Out in the midday sun! |
Play to me beneath the Summer moon |
Zigeuner |
Zigeuner |
Zigeuner! |
All I ask of life |
Is just to listen to the songs that you sing |
My spirit like a bird on the wing |
Your melodies adoring |
Soaring! |
Call to me with some barbaric tune |
Zigeuner |
Zigeuner |
Zigeuner! |
Now you have me in your power |
Play to me for just an hour |
Zigeuner |
Let our affair be a gay thing |
And when these hours have flown |
Then without forgetting happiness that is past |
There’ll be no regretting fun that didn’t quite last |
Let’s look on love as a plaything |
All these sweet moments we’ve known |
Mustn’t be degraded |
When the thrill of them has faded |
Let’s say goodbye and leave it alone |
Teach me to dance like grandma used to dance, I refuse to dance blues |
Blackbottoms, Charlestons, what wind blew them in |
Monkeys do them in zoos |
Back in the past the dancing singified |
Just a dignified glow |
They didn’t have to be so strong |
Though they revolved the whole night long |
Teach me to dance like grandma used to dance |

Sigh no more |
Sweet and beguiling ladies, sigh no more |

Out in the midday |
Out in the midday |
Out in the midday |
Out in the midday |
Out in the midday |
Out in the midday sun! |
