Nat King Cole Album

Unforgettable, that's what you are
Unforgettable though near or far
Like a song of love that clings to me
How the thought of you does things
to me
Never before has someone been
more

Unforgettable in every way
And forever more, that's how you'll
stay
That's why, darling, it's incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too

(instrumental interlude)

Unforgettable in every way
And forever more, that's how you'll
stay
That's why, darling, it's incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too

[No lyrics]

(Irving Berlin)


What'll I do when you
Are far away
And I'm so blue,
What'll I do?


What'll I do when I
Am wondering who
Is kissing you,
What'll I do?


What'll I do with just
A photograph
To tell my troubles to?


When I'm alone
With only dreams of you
That won't come true,
What'll I do?


~Interlude~


When I'm alone
With only dreams of you
That won't come true,
What'll I do?

(Newman/Spencer/DeLange)

Lost April,
Where did you go?
Like winter's snow,
I saw you vanish.
Lost April,
So soft and warm.
A memory
Not even time can banish.

Lost April,
That taught me this.
A single kiss
Could lead to heaven.
But April had numbered days,
So when they passed,
Love couldn't last.
I lost love and you,
And April, too.

~interlude~

So when they passed,
Love couldn't last.
I lost love and you,
And April, too.

Answer me, oh, my love
Just what sin have I been guilty of?
Tell me how I came to lose your love
Please answer me, sweetheart

You were mine yesterday
I believed that love was here to stay
Won't you tell me where I've gone astray?
Please answer me, my love

If you're happier without me
I'll try not to care
But if you still think about me
Please listen to my prayer

You must know I've been true
Won't you say that we can start anew?
In my sorrow now I turn to you
Please answer me, my love

(If you're happier without me)
(I'll try not to care)
But if you still think about me
Please listen to my prayer

You must know (you must know)I've been true (I've been true)
Won't you say that we can start anew?
In my sorrow now I turn to you
Please answer me, my love

Answer me, my love

[No lyrics]

They try to tell us we're too young
Too young to really be in love
They say that love's a word
A word we've only heard
But can't begin to know the meaning
of

And yet we're not too young to
know
This love will last though years may
go
And then some day they may recall
We were not too young at all

--Instrumental--

And yet we're not too young to
know
This love will last though years may
go
And then some day they may recall
We were not too young at all

Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa, men have
named you
You're so like the lady with the
mystic smile
Is it only 'cause you're lonely they
have blamed you?
For that Mona Lisa strangeness in
your smile?

Do you smile to tempt a lover, Mona
Lisa?
Or is this your way to hide a broken
heart?
Many dreams have been brought to
your doorstep
They just lie there and they die
there
Are you warm, are you real, Mona
Lisa?
Or just a cold and lonely lovely work
of art?

instrumental interlude

Do you smile to tempt a lover, Mona

Many dreams have been brought to

Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa

I love you
for sentimental reasons,
I hope you do believe me,
I've given you my heart

I love you
and you alone were meant for me
please give your loving heart to me
and say we'll never part

I think of you every morning
Dream of you every night
Darling I'm never lonely
whenever you are in sight

I love you
for sentimental reasons
I hope you do believe me
I've given you my heart

I love you for sentimental reasons
I hope you do believe me
I've given you my heart.

{Red sails in the sunset, way out on the sea}
Oh, carry my loved one home safely to me
{She sailed at the dawning, all day I've been blue}
Red sails in the sunset, I'm trusting in you

Swift wings you must borrow
Make straight for the shore
We marry tomorrow
And she goes sailing no more

{Red sails in the sunset, way out on the sea}
Oh, carry my loved one home safely to me



Swift wings you must borrow
Make straight for the shore
We marry tomorrow
And she goes sailing no more

{Red sails in the sunset}
Way out on the sea (ooh-wee-ooh, wee-ooh)
Oh, carry my loved one
{Home safely to me}

{bracketed words are sung by Nat in unison with background singers}
(words in parentheses are sung by background singers only)

Pretend you're happy when you're
blue
it isn't very hard to do
and you'll find happiness without an
end
whenever you pretend
remember anyone can dream
and nothing's as bad as it may seem
the little things you haven't got could
be a lot if you pretend
you'll find a love you can share
one you can call all your own
just close your eyes she'll be there
you'll never be alone
and if you sing this melody
you'll be pretending just like me
the world is mine it can be yours my
friend
so why don't you pretend
