Sunset Serenade
I serenade my love at sunset
beneath the embers of a sleepy sun.
Just before it slips away
behind the distant mountains
to herald the coming of the night
when the purple hues envelope everything
and the night choir all begin to sing.
My love and I sit
as I sing my serenade,
our fingers linked together
as the light begins to fade.
We sip the nectar of love
at the closing of the day
and the world to us
seems a million miles away.
At a time, when day and night collide
and beckon evening tide.
We sit at peace with the world
and enjoy our sunset serenade.

Moonlight Seranade
I stand at your gate
And the song that I sing is of moonlight
I stand and I wait
For the touch of your hand in the June light
The roses are side you
A moonlight serenade
The star's are a glow
And tonight how there light
Sets me dreaming
My love do you know
That your eyes, are like stars
Brightly beaming
I bring you, and sing you
A moonlight serenade
Let us stray, till break of day
In loves valley of dreams
Just you and I
A summer sky
A heavenly breeze
Kissing the trees
So don't let me wait
Come to me tenderly in the June night
I stand at your gate
And I sing you a song in the moonlight
A love song, my darlin
A moonlight serenade
So don't let me wait
Come to me tenderly in the June night
I stand at your gate
And I sing you a song in the moonlight
A love song, my darlin

Serenade Under A Blood Red Yellow Moon
even when all the art is burned and gone
alone high up in the raw Rocky Mountains
even in cold blues whites of bitter winter
lone wolf will serenade blood red yellow moon
alone in the night sitting serenades spectral moon
love serenade cry out to bewitching lover moon
sing in vast cathedral stellar unto the altar of light
sing in shadow horizons meteor burn in blazing light
sing in rhythms eternal to pulse rhythm moonbeat
lone silhouette in moonlight phantom of eternal night

My Desert Serenade
(words & music by stan gelber)
Come here my serenade, my desert serenade
A lovers melody, to bring you close to me
Its a tender lullaby, born of golden sand and sky
The song is new, and its calling you
Tonight beside the desert palms
Come let me take you in my arms
Come here my serenade, my desert serenade
Wherever lovers dwell, it weaves its magic spell
Soon a thousand dreams will start,
And romance will fill your heart
My lips conceal, love thats warm and real
Give me a chance to hold you near
Youll see a brand new world appear
So come and hear, my desert serenade, my desert serenade,
My desert serenade

Longfellow serenade
Such were the plans Id made
For she was a lady
And I was a dreamer
With only words to trade
You know that I was born for a night like this
Warmed by a stolen kiss
For I was lonely
And she was lonely
Ride, come on baby, ride
Let me make your dreams come true
Ill sing my song
Let me sing my song
Let me make it warm for you
Ill weave this web of rhyme
Upon this summer night
Well leave this worldly time
On his winged flight
Then come, and as we lay
Beside this sleepy glade
There Ill sing to you
My longfellow serenade
Longfellow serenade
Such were the plans I made
But she was a lady
As deep as the river
And through the night, we stayed
And in my way, I loved her as none before
Loved her with words and more
For she was lonely
And I was lonely
Ride, come on baby, ride
Let me make your dreams come true
Ill sing my song
Let me sing my song
Let me make it warm for you
Ill weave this web of rhyme
Upon this summer night
Well leave this worldly time
On his winged flight
Then come, and as we lay
Beside this sleepy glade
There Ill sing to you
My longfellow serenade

Serenade
Hey hey put me in your pocket for a day
Let me hold the rhythm of your sway
Let me steal you with this serenade, serenade
Hey hey, I could see the magic in your eyes,
Theres a fire beneath these spanish skies,
Let me steal you with this serenade, serenade

Hey hey, let me mix you up a recipe, heres doctor love to give you therapy
Let me steal you with this serenade, serenade
Out on the beach, blueprint of your soul, with the midnight of the city
A thousand eyes look down from space

A Serenade
A serenade is a love song
played and sung by a lover
who proclaims their love
in the sweetest melody of a song.
He stands beneath a parapet
almost unseen playing and singing
to his life’s love on high.
The tingling of the lover
is the feeling they rejoice with
of knowing the melody of love
is meant for only them.
Then chorus of Angels
join in the serenade
of love finding a partner
in a serenade.

Leisure Suit Serenade
Wearin old t-shirts and grubby jeans
People say I look kinda odd
Well, Im never accepted in the social set
cause they say that Im a clod
But once in a while, I go to my closet
And I put on something mod
And when I step out in my leisure suit
People stand up and applaud
Leisure suit serenade
Slip one on and you got it made
You better hope and pray that the colors dont fade
Thats the leisure suit serenade
Now, it dont matter if the collars bent
If its got nylon twenty percent
Now Im as cool as the asb president
Leisure suit serenade
Leisure suit serenade
Slip one on and you got it made
You better hope and pray that the colors dont fade
Thats the leisure suit serenade, oh yeah
Thats the leisure suit serenade

Sweet
Suicide
Serenade
how you
came to be
The tune
that came
to me
whilst in
the depth
of my sadness
see?
I could not
hide the pain
The sorrow -
or deep shame
The tears that
fell that night,
extinguised the
brightest light
Now in
a tunnel
I despair
All alone upon
this earth
The morbid music
played,
as I sat down
and prayed
And so alone,
I sit
And yes, I
do admit
that life for
me had been
a nightmare -
not a dream
All my hopes
and fears,
all my
wasted years
are as of nothing -
what's to show?
Just a man
who will die alone?
Sweet
Suicide
Serenade
Serenade me
to my doom,
within an
empty room
I sit within
the gloom
Sweet
Suicide
Serenade
Plays the
final bars
Plays within
my head
I exit
life
and
welcome
death
And so
alone
I hang
in silence
swinging -
no one's hand
did I hold
that final night...
for no one ever
held me tight...
And so
alone
I hang
My body
swinging -
silhouette
Lifeless in
the living room
my shadow
cast upon
the step
And so
alone
I hang
yet only
within my head,
did I hear
the music play

Women
I love women, I think theyre great
Theyre a solace to the world in a terrible state
Theyre a blessing to the eyes, a balm to soul
What a nightmare to have no women in the world
I love women
I love women
I love women
We all love women
I used to look at women in the magazines
I know that it was sexist, but I was in my teens
I was very bitter, all my sex was on the sly
I couldnt keep my hands off women, and I wont till I die
I love women
Ah, I love women
We love women
We all love women
A womans love can lift you up, and women can inspire
I feel like buying flowers and hiring a celestial choir
A choir of castratis to serenade my love
Theyd sing a little bach for us and then wed make love
I love women
I love women
We all love women
We love women

Rainbow Around The Moon
The scarlet strips of sunset
set the horizon aglow
as it slips behind
the shaded purple mountains
before the sun goes to sleep.
Night of a million stars appear
to set the night alight
and cast a rainbow around the moon
as far below in sleepy hollows
midnight lovers swoon.
The chorus of nocturnal creatures
keeps the night alive
as the moon with
its rainbow crown
smiles down on the lovers below.
Soon the sun will rise again
to herald in a new day
and the rainbow and the moon
will lose their embrace
as the new day comes to call.

Kiss Me The Way You Did Last Night
Serenade me by the light of the moon,
Lets sing and dance as lovers do
When the morning light shines down on me
With you, my love I want to be
As the stars go sailin by
We can count them you and i
We can make a wish when one falls from the sky
And my only wish would be
That forever I would see
You movin thru the darkness smiling that way at me
(*) kiss me the way you did last, night
Lay down beside me, holdin me tight
Kiss me the way you did last night,
Tonight until the morning light
Celebrate love while the feeling is new
Its a moment that was meant for me and you
If tomorrow never comes I wont care,
Ill just love you tonight and all we share...
Repeat (*)
Tonight, tonight and every night
(kiss me)
The way you did last night
Repeat (*)

Just Beyond The Sunset
Just beyond the sunset
Someone waits for me
Just beyond the sunset
Lies my destiny
Where the purple mountains
Lie in deep tranquillity
There I’ll find the treasure
Of love eternally
Just beyond the sunset
Waits someone so fair
Just beyond the sunset
All alone they wait there
Their hair is golden
The colour of the sand
Their eyes sparkle in the night
Like diamonds in your hand
Just beyond the sunset
Lies a home for me
Where the world is peaceful
Like a paradise should be
Just beyond the sunset
Someday is where you’ll find me

Moonlight Serenade
Stars are aglow and tonight how their light sets me dreaming,
My love, do you know that your eyes are like stars brightly beaming?
I bring you and sing you
A moonlight serenade.
Let us stray till break of day
In loves valley of dreams,
You and i, a summer sky,
A heavenly breeze kisses the trees.
So dont let me wait, come to me tenderly in the june light.
I stand at your gate and I sing you a song in the moonlight,
A love song, my darling,
A moonlight serenade.
We can stay till break of day
In loves valley of dreams,
You and i, a summer sky,
A heavenly breeze kisses the trees.
So dont let me wait, come to me tenderly in the june light.
I stand at your gate and I sing you a song in the moonlight,
A love song, my darling,
A moonlight serenade.

Only Time
Each night he sings his love song
under the moon above
for the one in his arms.
The serenade he sings
pledges his love forever
if she will become his dream
and walk beside him
through times of joy,
times of happiness,
times of sorrow and times of despair.
Will she become his dream?
Only time will tell.

Munting Paraiso (English ' Little Paradise ')
The little paradise
was full of laughters
of the little angels
playing in the garden
that is painted
with many colors
of beautiful flowers.
At night
was the father's serenade
with his guitar
while little angels
soundly sleeping
on their mother's breast.
The little paradise
oh, I can't remember
the last time
I saw it.
Since poverty
became the victor
father's serenade
no longer heard
and with the mother
both tired from labor
they sleep at night
with their mouths open.
And their angels
faded their innocence
that even late at night
still in the streets
wandering.
Oh, little paradise
how I wish
to see you...
once more.

Hymn To Love
If the sky should fall into the sea
And the stars fade all around me
All the times that we have known here
I will sing a hymn to love
We have lived and dreamed we two alone
In a world that's been our very own
With it's memories ever grateful
Just for you I sing a hymn to love
I remember each embrace
The smile that lights your face
And my heart begins to sing
Your eyes have never lied
And my heart begins to sing
And my heart begins to sing
If one day you should ever disappear
Always remember these words
If one day we had to say goodbye
And our love should fade away and die
In my heart you will remain here
And I'II sing a hymn to love
O for love, we live eternally
In the blue we'll roll this harmony
With every day we are in heaven
As for you, I'll sing a hymn to love
Don't you ever worry, dear
And the stars shall fade from the sky
All the times that we have known here
I will sing a hymn to our love
Oh darling,
Just for you I sing
A hymn to love

Waterloo Sunset
Dirty old river, must you keep rolling
Flowing into the night
People so busy, makes me feel dizzy
Taxi light shines so bright
But I don't need no friends
As long as I gaze on Waterloo sunset
I am in paradise
Every day I look at the world from my window
Chilly, chilly is the evening time
Waterloo sunset's fine
Terry meets Julie at Waterloo Station
Every Friday night
But I am so lazy, don't want to wander
I stay at home at night
But I don't feel afraid
As long as I gaze on Waterloo sunset
I am in paradise
Every day I look at the world from my window
Chilly, chilly is the evening time
Waterloo sunset's fine
Millions of people swarming like flies 'round Waterloo underground
But Terry and Julie cross over the river
Where they feel safe and sound
And they don't need no friends
As long as they gaze on Waterloo sunset
They are in paradise
Waterloo sunset's fine (Waterloo sunset's fine)
Waterloo sunset's fine (Waterloo sunset's fine)
Waterloo sunset's fine (Waterloo sunset's fine)
Waterloo sunset's fine

Alla Dogana
Night, and the silence of the night,
In Venice; far away, a song;
As if the lyric water made
Itself a serenade;
As if the water's silence were a song
Sent up into the night.
Night, a more perfect day,
A day of shadows luminous,
Water and sky at one, at one with us;
As if the very peace of night,
The older peace than heaven or light,
Came down into the day.
