Sentimental Melancholy
Johnny mercer / richard whiting
Sentimental and melancholy
Whenever I think about you
Its only a mood,
A brief interlude
Thats better described as just feeling blue
I suppose that its just my folly
To keep it alive as I do
But its a kind of sugar coated misery
And foolish as it seems
I thought Id like to be
Sentimental and melancholy
Whenever I think about you

Melancholy Mood
A little collie weed to ease I grief
too much agony living in the limits of big city
a little collie weed to meditate
too much insanity in this society
melancholy mood I eat for my food melancholy mood
rise this morning smile with the sun
oh I'm blessed another day has begun
everything in life has its purpose
find its reason it has its season
melancholy mood I eat for my food melancholy mood
tears leave my eyes I just want to fly
deep down I feel pain
but I know I must rise again
from this melancholy mood melancholy mood
melancholy mood I eat for my food melancholy mood

Sentimental
Last night
we showed how much we cared
but sadness filled the air
how it made us cry
as we waved goodbye
then you left me standing there
Last night
I came home on my own
and watched a movie show
and the saddest part
really broke my heart
as it made me miss you so
I get so sentimental
can't control the beat of my heart
I get so sentimental
sentimental when we're apart
Last night
I tried to let you know
how it hurts to see you go
and how I want you near
every time I hear
our love song on the radio
I get so sentimental
can't control the beat of my heart
I get so sentimental
sentimental when we're apart
Can't control the beat of my heart
I get so sentimental
sentimental when we're apart
How you made me cry
when we waved good bye
as it made me miss you so
I get so sentimental
can't control the beat of my heart
I get so sentimental
sentimental when we're apart
I get so sentimental
I get so sentimental
sentimental when we're apart
I get so sentimental
can't control the beat of my heart
I get so sentimental

In A Sentimental Mood
In a sentimental mood
I can see the stars come through my room
While your loving attitude
Is like a flame that lights the gloom
On the wings of every kiss
Drifts a melody so strange and sweet
In this sentimental bliss
You make my paradise complete
Rose petals seem to fall
Its all I could dream to call you mine
My hearts a lighter thing
Since you made this night a thing divine
In a sentimental mood
Im within a world so heavenly
For I never dreamt that youd be loving sentimental me

Sentimental Over You
Never thought Id fall
But now I hear the call
Im getting sentimental over you
Things you say and do
Just thrill me through and through
Im getting sentimental over you
Once I wondered why
Id sit at home and sigh
Im getting sentimental over you
Words cannot describe
This poetry inside
Im getting sentimental over you
I thought I was happy, I could live with myself
Now I see that love is all that Im thinking of
Wont you please be kind
And just make up your mind
That youll be sweet and gentle
Be gentle with me
cause Im getting sentimental over you
I thought I was happy, I could live with myself
Now I see that love is all that Im thinking of
Wont you please be kind
And just make up your mind
That youll be sweet and gentle
Be gentle with me
cause Im getting sentimental over you

On The Sentimental Side
Johnny burke / j. monaco
If you wonder why Im near you
Even though Ive been denied
Im inclined to be a little
On the sentimental side
I suppose I should forget you
If I had an ounce of pride
But I guess I cant help being
On the sentimental side
I should act gay
Laugh it off and say, farewell
Say it just didnt wear well
But Im not that way
Im in hopes youll think it over
And perhaps be satisfied
With a simple sort of person
On the sentimental side
I should act gay
Laugh it off and say, farewell
Say it just didnt wear well
But Im not that way
Im in hopes youll think it over
And perhaps be satisfied
With a simple sort of person
On the sentimental side

Sentimental Journey
Gonna take a sentimental journey
Gonna to set my heart at ease
Gonna take a sentimental journey
To renew old memories
Got my bag
I got my reservation
Spend each dime I could afford
Like a child in wild anticipation
Long to hear that all aboard
Seven, that's the time we leave at seven
I'll be waiting up for heaven
Counting every mile of railroad track
That takes me back
Never thought my heart could be so yearning
Why did I decide to roam
Gonna take a sentimental journey

I'm Gettin' Sentimental Over You
I'm gettin' sentimental over you
Things you say and do
Just thrill me through and through
I'm gettin' sentimental over you
I thought I was happy
I could live without love
Now I must admit
Love is all that I'm thinking of
Won't you please be kind
And just make up your mind
That you'll be sweet and gentle
Be gentle with me
Because I'm sentimental over you
Now I must admit

Won't you please be kind
And just make up your mind
That you'll be sweet and gentle
Be gentle with me

Sentimental me
Guess Ill always will be
So in love with you
Say you love me too

Dreaming while I live
Living just to give
All my love to you

Reaching for the moon
Wishing on the stars
On my honeymoon

Too Sentimental
(graham russell, brad buxer)
One world, one love, these can never be apart
Whisper in your words what is in your heart
How can I stop this emotion knowing that its true
Am I too sentimental for you
Have I gone too far
If I knew this feeling is part of you too, girl
Midnight, candlelight
Knowing you are close to me
So much I have inside
Ive got to set it free
With you silence can be spoken
If love has broken through
Am I too sentimental for you
Have I gone too far
If I knew that this feeling is part of you too, girl
Ooh, sentimental man
Am I saying too much too soon
cause I love you
Such a gentle girl
Waiting for you
One love, two touch, we can never be apart
I want you so much for what is in your heart
How can we stop this emotion knowing that its true
Am I too sentimental for you
Have I gone too far
If I knew that this feeling is part of you too, girl

Sentimental
Orbison/melson
I get so ooh sentimental
Darling when it comes to you,
I'm just too ooh sentimental
And its breaking my heart in two.
I said a-hey,hey now
At the end of the day now,
I get carried away now
Thinking of you,ooh
How you looked that night,
You kissed goodbye just right,
Then turned away
And i miss you night and day.
Hey,a-hey, hey now,
At the end of the day now,
I get carried away now,
Thinking of you, ooh
Who holds you tight?,
I wonder where you are,
Are you alright
For you know, i still love you,
But i'm just so sentimental,
Baby because of you,
I'm just so ooh, sentimental
And it's,breaking my heart in two...

Sentimental Thing
We always were the kind of people
To take it hard when things would go wrong
Little things would bother me
And little things would make you cry
And after all the confrontations
When it comes time for saying goodbye
All that I can wonder
Is what do I do with these flowers
And what do I do with my evenings
And what do you do with that ring
Im gonna go now
No you cant hold me
Not with such a sentimental thing
So tell me why Im feeling nothing
And tell me how you cant even cry
Little things are logical
But if theres a God above then
Can it be that love was
Just another sentimental thing

Kick In The Face
Sometimes its not fair
Too many lies are told
Here we go- dont blame me
What are you lying for
Dont treat me like a toy
I have been through this pain
Long before- again and again
I believe that its much too much
I only listen to my heart
Its never telling me a lie
I only listen to my heart
Like a kick in the face- sentimental lies
Like a kick in the face- sentimental lies
Dont you dare to hurt me
Its my life- and its real
Im not your fool
I will fight for my right
I only listen to my heart
Its never telling me a lie
I only listen to my heart
Like a kick in the face- sentimental lies
Like a kick in the face- sentimental lies
Like a kick in the face
Lets get right down to it
I hate the way you talk
Im leaving all the bad times
I leave it all- all for you
I only listen to my heart
Its never telling me a lie
I only listen to my heart
Its like a kick in your face- sentimental lies
Like a kick in your face- sentimental lies
Its like a kick in your face- sentimental lies
Like a kick in your face- sentimental lies

For Sentimental Reasons
(feat. Dave Koz)
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 ever part
I think of you every morning
Dream of you every night
Darling, I'm never lonely
Whenever you are in sight
All because I love you for sentimental reasons
I hope you do believe me, baby
I've given you my heart
[Instrumental interlude]
I think of you every morning
Dream of you every night
Darling, I'm never lonely
Whenever, whenever, whenever you are in sight
All because I love you for sentimental reasons
I hope you do believe me
I've given you my heart
I've given you my heart
For sentimental reasons
I've given you my heart

Youth, however, can afford to enjoy even its melancholy; for the ultimate fact of which that melancholy is a prophecy is a long way off.

Melancholy Child
A baby with a baby just barely seventeen
My mother mourned her innocence
While she bounced on her knee
A daddy on the road added to her tears and trials
Like silver rain they fell upon this melancholy child
The sounds of my childhood still linger in my song
My mother's lullaby that train that ran behind our home
A whippoorwill on a window sill - it should have made me smile
But everything sounds lonesome to a melancholy child
Now a restless blood runs in our family
I thought I could outrun the emptiness inside of me
So I went a little crazy, went a little wild
Trying to outdistance my own melancholy child
I met a kind and gentle man who thinks the world of me
And when he looks my way it is a woman that he sees
But when I can't explain to him the tears that fill my eyes
He takes me in his arms and rocks his melancholy child
You take a black Irish temper and some solemn Cherokee
A Southern sense of humor and you got someone like me
There are thorns on every rose to this I'm reconciled
They're just a little sharper to a melancholy child
And in my own babe's eyes I see the signs of a melancholy child
Heaven help us all, another melancholy child

Away, Melancholy
Away, melancholy,
Away with it, let it go.
Are not the trees green,
The earth as green?
Does not the wind blow,
Fire leap and the rivers flow?
Away melancholy.
The ant is busy
He carrieth his meat,
All things hurry
To be eaten or eat.
Away, melancholy.
Man, too, hurries,
Eats, couples, buries,
He is an animal also
With a hey ho melancholy,
Away with it, let it go.
Man of all creatures
Is superlative
(Away melancholy)
He of all creatures alone
Raiseth a stone
(Away melancholy)
Into the stone, the god
Pours what he knows of good
Calling, good, God.
Away melancholy, let it go.
Speak not to me of tears,
Tyranny, pox, wars,
Saying, Can God
Stone of man's thoughts, be good?
Say rather it is enough
That the stuffed
Stone of man's good, growing,
By man's called God.
Away, melancholy, let it go.
Man aspires
To good,
To love
Sighs;
Beaten, corrupted, dying
In his own blood lying
Yet heaves up an eye above
Cries, Love, love.
It is his virtue needs explaining,
Not his failing.
Away, melancholy,
Away with it, let it go

Sentimental Movie
You better change your attitude
Cause you know you want it to
You bring me all your pride
But I know you hold it too
I can feed your bounty, yeah
If you feed my head as well
And I wont give you empty promises, yeah
When the quarters in the wishing well
But this ain't no sentimental movie
Where dreams collect like dust
You talk to me with innocence in your eyes
So now, who can you trust?
You think you look so cool
Yes you do
You take me for your fool, yeah
Itching' for your... of the hug
Baby I want a new start, but dont you be true, yeah
I can see through your door
You put my head into these walls
You take my heart to the dockside, yeah
You put me in the car
And take me for another ride
But this ain't no sentimental movie
Where dreams collect like dust
You talk to me with innocence in your eyes
So now, who can you trust?
Trust
Trust
Put a path on to your veins
And antique and old whore's our new pain, yeah
The tears you cried
All the tears you cried tonight
Yeah
You put me down
But you can't get out of sight
And this aint no sentimental movie
You push it on
You grab it on
But I dont see the TV?
This ain't no sentimental movie
Yeah, see the screen
Youre startin to scream
Abusin confusin
Your programs over?
This aint no sentimental movie
Yeah, you look so cool
Dont take me for another one of your scenes?
This aint no sentimental movie
This aint no sentimental movie
The tears you cried
All the tears you cried tonight
Yeah
This aint no sentimental movie
This aint no sentimental movie
This aint no sentimental movie
Yea
