Any girl who's reached the age Of seventeen or thereabouts Has but one desire in view She knows she has reached the stage Of needing one to care about Nothing else will really do
Childhood games are left behind And her heart takes wing Hoping that it soon will find Just one thing
We've got to have, We plot to have, For it's a dreary not to have That certain thing called "The Boy Friend" We scheme about And dream about And we've been known to scream about That certain thing called "The Boy Friend"
He is really a necessity If you want to get on And we might as well confess it He is a sine qua non
We sigh for him And cry for him, And we would gladly die for him That certain thing called "The Boy Friend"
We plead to have, We need to have, In fact our poor hearts bleed to have That certain thing called "The Boy Friend" We'd save for him And slave for him We'd even misbehave for him That certain thing called "The Boy Friend"
Life without us is impossible And devoid of all charms No amount of idle gossip'll Keep them out of our arms We're blue without Can't do without Our dreams just won't come true without That certain thing called "The Boy Friend"
We're blue without Can't do without Our dreams just won't come true without That certain thing called "The Boy Friend"

So long until I'll be home to start serving you I'll be home, my darling Please wait for me (wait for me) I'd walk you home in the moonlight Once more our love will be free SPOKEN: Darling, as I write this letter, here's hoping you're Thinking of me.My mind's made up.

I was engaged at the time and Lawrence had ben posted to Singapore for nearly two years to do his National Service so I used to listen to this and bawl my eyes out :-( :-(

It's late in the evening She's wondering what clothes to wear She puts on her make up And brushes her long blonde hair
And then she asks me, "Do I look alright?" And I say, "Yes, you look wonderful tonight"
We go to a party And everyone turns to see This beautiful lady That's walking around with me
And then she asks me, "Do you feel alright?" And I say, "Yes, I feel wonderful tonight" [ From: http://www.elyrics.net ]
I feel wonderful Because I see the love light in your eyes And the wonder of it all Is that you just don't realize how much I love you
It's time to go home now And I've got an aching head So I give her the car keys She helps me to bed
And then I tell her as I turn out the light I say, "My darling, you are wonderful tonight Oh my darling, you are wonderful tonight"
Eric Clapton - Wonderful Tonight

When I fall in love it will be forever Or I'll never fall in love In a restless world like this is Love is ended before it's begun And too many moonlight kisses Seem to cool in the warmth of the sun
When I give my heart it will be completely Or I'll never give my heart And the moment I can feel that you feel that way too Is when I fall in love with you.
And the moment I can feel that you feel that way too Is when I fall in love with you.

You're my everything underneath the sun You're my everything rolled up into one You're my only dream, my only real reality You're my idea of a perfect personality You're my everything, everything I need You're the song I sing and the book I read You're a way beyond belief and just to make it brief You're my winter, summer, spring, my everything You're my everything (everything I need) You're the song I sing and the book I read You're a way beyond belief and just to make it brief You're my winter, summer, spring, my everything
I have the Eddie Fisher version but Nat King Cole also recorded it

Sentimental and old-fashioned - and why not? :)
"The Very Thought of You" by Al Bowlly http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cDYrXcQj4JI
The very thought of you and I forget to do The little ordinary things that everyone ought to do I'm living in a kind of daydream I'm happy as a king And foolish though it may seem To me that's everything
The mere idea of you, the longing here for you You'll never know how slow the moments go till I'm near to you I see your face in every flower Your eyes in stars above It's just the thought of you The very thought of you, my love

*What A Wonderful World"
I see trees of green, red roses too. I see them bloom, for me and you. And I think to myself, what a wonderful world.
I see skies of blue, And clouds of white. The bright blessed day, The dark sacred night. And I think to myself, What a wonderful world.
The colors of the rainbow, So pretty in the sky. Are also on the faces, Of people going by, I see friends shaking hands. Saying, "How do you do?" They're really saying, "I love you".
I hear babies cry, I watch them grow, They'll learn much more, Than I'll ever know. And I think to myself, What a wonderful world.
Yes, I think to myself, What a wonderful world.

NO OTHER LOVE
"No Other Love can warm my heart Now that I've known the comfort of your arms No other love. Oh the sweet contentment that I find with you Every Time
Every Time.
No other lips could want you more For I was born to glory in your kiss.
Forever yours
I was blessed with love to love you Til the stars burn out above you
Til the moon is but a silver shell
No other love, Let no other love
Know the wonder of your spell".
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
One of the best versions is sung by Jo Stafford.

Hello
Two sentimental songs from yesteryear.
IF YOU WERE THE ONLY BOY IN THE WORLD
"Sometimes when I feel low
and things look blue
I wish a boy I had.......... say one like you.
Someone within my heart to build a throne
Someone who'd never part, to call my own
If you were the only boy in the world and I were the only girl
Nothing else would matter in the world today
We could go on loving in the same old way
A garden of Eden just made for two
With nothing to mar our joy
I would say such wonderful things to you
There would be such wonderful things to do
If you were the only boy in the world
and I were the only girl".
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Clifford Grey wrote the music and Nat D. Ayer supplied the lyrics in 1916.
This song has been recorded many times over the years including Webster Booth and Anne Ziegfield, Jeanette McDonald and Nelson Eddy and Perry Como.
Take gentle care Best wishes Elizabeth xx
