Perry Como - (There's No Place Like) Home For The Holidays - lyrics

Oh, there's no place like home for the holidays
'cause no matter how far away you roam
When you pine for the sunshine of a friendly gaze
For the holidays, you can't beat home, sweet home
I met a man who lives in Tennessee and he was headin' for
Pennsylvania and some homemade pumpkin pie
From Pennsylvania folks are trav'lin' down to Dixie's sunny shore
From Atlantic to Pacific, gee, the traffic is terrific
Oh, there's no place like home for the holidays
'cause no matter how far away you roam
If you want to be happy in a million ways
For the holidays, you can't beat home, sweet home
(Oh, there's no place like home for the holidays)
INSTRUMENTAL second line
(When you pine for the sunshine of a friendly gaze)
INSTRUMENTAL fourth line
I met a man who lives in Tennessee and he was headin' for
Pennsylvania and some homemade pumpkin pie
From Pennsylvania folks are trav'lin' down to Dixie's sunny shore
From Atlantic to Pacific, gee, the traffic is terrific
Oh, there's no place like home for the holidays
'cause no matter how far away you roam
If you want to be happy in a million ways
For the holidays, you can't beat home, sweet home
For the holidays, you can't beat home, sweet home

Perry Como - &eacute; Lei - lyrics

é lei la donna mia, é lei
Che non potró lasciare mai
Perché ora lo so
Per l'eternitá il nostro amore durerá.
é lei la donna mia, é lei
E a tutto il mondo grideró
Che tutta la mia vita, la mia felicitá
é lei, é lei, é lei . . .
To you, i give my heart completely,
To you, my love, forevermore,
All that i possess,
My life and nothin' less,
I offer humbly at your door!
To me, you bring a glimpse of heaven,
The world i really never knew,
And in return i'll give,
As long as i may live,
Devotion, only to you!

Perry Como - A Dreamer's Holiday - lyrics

Climb aboard a butterfly and take off in the breeze,
Let your worries flutter by and do the things you please,
In the land where dollar bills are falling off the trees,
On a dreamer's hol-i-day.
Ev'ry day for breakfast, there's a dish of scrambled stars,
And for luncheon, you'll be munchin' rainbow candy bars;
You'll be livin' a-la-mode on Jupiter and Mars
On a dreamer's hol-i-day.
Bridge:
Make it a long vacation; time there is plenty of.
You need no res-er-va-tion -- just bring the one you love.
Help yourself to happiness and sprinkle it with mirth,
Close your eyes and concentrate and dream for all you're worth;
You will feel ter-rif-ic when you get back down to earth
From a dreamer's holiday.
Repeat Bridge:
Repeat Final Verse:
From a dreamer's hol-i-day

Perry Como - 'twas The Night Before Christmas - lyrics

twas the night before christmas,
When all through the house,
Not a creature was stirring,
Not even a mouse!
The stockings all hung
By the chimney with care,
In hopes that st. nicholas
Soon would be there!
The children were nestled
All safe in their beds,
While visions of sugarplums
Danced in their heads!
And mom in her kerchief
And I in my cap,
Had just settled down
For a long winters nap!
When out on the lawn
There arose such a clatter,
I sprang from my bed
To see what was the matter!
Away to the window
I flew like a flash,
Tore open the shutters
And threw up the sash!
The moon on the breast
Of the new fallen snow,
Gave the lustre of midday
To object below!
When what to my wandering eyes
Should appear,
But a miniature sleigh
And eight tiny reindeer!
With a little ol driver
So lively and quick,
I knew in a moment
It must be st. nick!
More rapid than eagles
His courses they came,
As he whistled and shouted
And called them by name:
Now dasher,
Now dancer,
Now prancer,
Now vixen,
On comet,
On cupid,
On doner
An blitzen!
To the top of the porch,
To the top of the wall,
Now dash-away, dash-away,
Dash-away all!
As dry leaves
Before the wild hurricane fly,
When they meet with an obstacle
Mount to the sky.
So, up to the housetop
The courses they flew,
With a sleigh full of toys
And st. nicholas too!
And then in a twinkling
I heard on the roof,
The prancing and pawing
Of each little hoof!
As I drew in my head
And was turning around,
Down the chimney st. nicholas
Came with a bound!
He was dressed all in fur
From his head to his foot,
And his clothes were all tarnished
With ashes and soot!
A bundle of toys
He had flung on his back,
And he looked like a peddler
Just opening his pack!
His eyes how they twinkled,
His dimples how merry,
His cheeks were like roses,
His nose like a cherry!
His drawl little mouth
Was drawn up like a bow,
And the beard of his chin
Was a white as the snow!
The stump of his pipe
He held tight in his teeth,
And the smoke it encircled his head
Like a wreath!
He had a broad face
And a round little belly,
That shook when he laughed
Like a bowl full of jelly!
He was chubby and plump,
A right jolly old elf,
I laughed when I saw him
In spite of myself!
A wink of his eye
And a twist of his head,
Soon gave me to know
I had nothing to dread!
He spoke not a word
But went straight to his work,
And filled all the stockings,
Then turned with a jerk!
An laying a finger
Along side his nose,
An giving a nod,
Up the chimney he rose!
He sprang to his sleigh,
To his team gave a whistle,
An away they all flew
Like the down of a thistle.
But I heard him exclaim
As he drove out of sight,
Happy christmas to all,
And to all a goodnight!
Hmmm

Perry Como - (They Long To Be) Close To You - lyrics

Why do birds suddenly appear,
Every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be, close to you . . .

Why do stars fall down from the sky,
Every time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be, close to you . . .

On the day that you were born,
The angels got together,
An' decided to create a dream come true . . .

So they sprinkled mood dust in your hair of gold
An' starlight in your eyes of blue . . .

That is why, all the boys in town,
Follow you, all around,
Just like me, they long to be, close to you!

On the day that you were born,
The angels got together,
An' decided to create a dream come true . . .

So they sprinkled mood dust in your hair of gold
An' starlight in your eyes of blue . . .

That is why, all the boys in town,
Follow you, all around,
Just like me, they long to be, close to you . . .

Why?
Close to you . . .
Why?
Close to you . . .
Why?
Close to you . . .

Just like me, they long to be . . .
Close to you . . . ( Close to you, close to you . . . )

Perry Como - (I Love You) Don't You Forget It - lyrics

I love you an' don't you forget it,
I love you an' don't you forget it,
I love you an' don't you forget it, baby!
Love me too an' you won't regret it,
Love me too an' you won't regret it,
Love me too an' you won't regret it, baby!
I love you an' don't you forget it,
I love you an' don't you forget it,
I love you an' don't you forget it, baby!
I love you an' don't you forget it,
That makes seven times that I've said it,
I don't see how you can forget it now!
I love you in the springtime,
I love you in the fall,
I love you at a party,
We always have a ball!
And when you're in my arms dear,
I love you most of all . . .
In the morning an' in the evening,
An' when it's cloudy or clear,
I'm in love with you, so in love with you,
Every day of the year!
I love you an' don't you forget it,
I love you an' don't you forget it,
I love you an' nun't you forget it, baby!
Love me too an' you won't regret it,
Love me too an' you won't regret it,
Love me too an' you won't regret it, baby!
I love you an' don't you forget it,
I love you an' don't you forget it,
I love you an' don't you forget it, baby!
I love you an' don't you forget it,
That makes twenty times that I've said it,
I don't see how you can forget it now!
[ pause ]
I love you an' don't you forget it,
There, that's one more time that I've said it,
I don't see how you can forget it now!

Perry Como - A Fellow Needs A Girl - lyrics

A fellow needs a girl, to sit by his side
At the end of a weary day
To sit by his side and listen to him talk
And agree with the things hell say!
A fellow needs a girl, to hold in his arms
When the rest of the world goes wrong
To hold in his arms and know that she believes
That her fellow is wise and strong!
When things go right and his jobs well done
He wants to share the prize hes won
If no one shares and no one cares
Wheres the fun of a job well done, or a prize youve won?
A fellow needs a home, his own kind of home
But to make this dream come
A fellow needs a girl, his own kind of girl
My kind of girl is you!
< instrumental break >
A fellow needs a girl, his own kind of girl
My kind of girl is you!
