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

Hey hey put me in your pocket for a day

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.

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
A moonlight serenade
A moonlight 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

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.

Longfellow Serenade
Longfellow serenade
Written by: neil diamond
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

Thinking Of You
Standing in the half-light
Wondering if he can
There stands the priest of sinners
Consolation in his hands
Though he prays that he won't need it
He keeps it by his side
Waiting for the face-up and the answer in her eyes
All while the music's playing a backdrop serenade
There's only one point of view
To be doing the things that lovers should do
Disco-queens in dancestep
Moving face to face
All tangled up in neon, don't think it's some disgrace
The blue western denim
The East Coast razor edge
The European fashion
The leathers and re-treads
All while the music's playing a backdrop serenade
There's only one point of view
To be doing the things that lovers should do

Fascinating
I've latched on, I've been wrong
No one told me what to wear, no one sent me home
Space age party, fascinating, I just don't fit in
Someone throw me anything, the oxygene is thin
If you just can't speak to me, just throw me a line
Give me just a little nod, I could fascinate you
But I am out of place, float in outerspace
No one wants to pull me in its awful saving face
I could fascinate, I could serenade
I'm opinionated, I'll have Vodka Lemonade
If you just can't speak to me, just throw me a line
Give me just a little nod, you are fascinated
I could serenade
We could throw this party and take off on our own
Find our own higher place, an odessy back home
I could not be less included, you could not have known
In my darkest rose and pennant, I am so alone
If you just can't speak to me, just throw me a line
Give me just a little nod, you are fascinated
I could serenade
I could fascinate you
I could resonate

Satellite News
Sending it all right back
Waiting for heart attacks
Watching the days collide
Changing with the weather
Trying to keep it clear
Slither on broken tears
Searching for ways to cure
Who can make it better?
'Cause you will never keep me down
You could never keep me down
I wanna lift myself up to the sky
Serenade the stars as I pass by
I wanna leave it all, just for a while
I'll be satellite news
I wanna lift myself above the clouds
Cut the ropes around me, you'll see me shine
Shine like the sun
Conditioned compatible youth
TV and comfort foods
Sending back down the news
They're hoping that it's better
You will never keep me down
You can never keep me down
I wanna lift myself up to the sky
Serenade the stars as I pass by
I wanna leave it all, just for a while
I'll be satellite news
I wanna lift myself above the clouds
Cut the ropes around me, you'll see me shine
Shine, shine like the sun
I'll shine like the sun
Shine like the sun
I'll shine like the sun
I wanna lift myself up to the sky
Serenade the stars as I pass by
I wanna leave it all, just for a while
'Cause you will never keep me down
You could never keep me down
I wanna lift myself up to the sky
Serenade the stars as I pass by
I wanna leave it all, just for a while
I'll be satellite news
I wanna lift myself above the clouds
Cut the ropes around me, you'll see me shine
See me shine
Shine like the sun
I wanna lift myself up to the sky
Serenade the stars as I pass by
I wanna leave it all, just for a while
I'll be satellite news
I wanna lift myself above the clouds
Cut the ropes around me, you'll see me shine
Shine, shine like the sun
I'll shine like the sun
Shine like the sun

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,

Blue Guitar
I once knew a man
Showed me the slight of hand
In the blink of an eye, he danced across the strings
Played a song I'd never heard
Poignant and absurd
To this day it leaves me wondering
How I wish tomorrow I were fishin'
Boy I've got a mission
Shake it, rattle and roll
Ah, now, just use your intuition
You'll get less competition
From the clock up on the wall
You are what you are
You dream what you dream
Play on your Blue Guitar for me
Play me a serenade
A simple masquerade
Play on your Blue Guitar for me
'Cause we'll all make believe
Someone to deceive
Time is just a folly we can't see
You only know one song
Play it right or wrong
The truth is always somewhere in between
You and I, we can't change the weather
And we're all in this together
So let the strong winds blow
Ah, now things will be much better
If you don't become a prisoner
To the reason you should know
You are what you are
You dream what you dream
Play on your Blue Guitar for me
Play me a serenade
A simple masquerade
Play on your Blue Guitar for me
How I wish tomorrow I were fishin'
Boy I've got a mission
Shake it, rattle and roll
Ah, now, just use you intuition
You'll get less competition
From the clock up on the wall
You are what you are
You dream what you dream
Play on your Blue Guitar for me
Play me a serenade
A simple masquerade
Play on your Blue Guitar for me
You are what you are
You dream what you dream
Play on your Blue Guitar for me
Play me a serenade
Red wine or lemonade

Philosophers Bones
He’s given them all to a Desert Man
Underdog bitten holes of the head
He’s given them all to a Desert Man
Unleashed sunflower sunward led
He’s given them all to a Desert Man
In windblown power the dinas bled
He’s given them all to a Desert Man
Like tears in the desert rose shed
Stone alone atoned in the last sand clock
Soul alone attained keyed within the lock

A Tree in the Desert
A tree in the desert thirsts for water
A tree in the desert gets too much sun
A tree in the desert is alone in the freezing night
A tree in the desert might never be seen
A tree in the desert might never be touched
A tree in the desert may or may not thrive
A tree in the desert struggles to stay alive

Desert Plains
Full moon is rising
The sky is black
I need your call Im coming back
The road is straight cast
Winds in my eyes
The engine roars between my thighs
From desert plains I bring you love
From desert plains I bring you love
Wild mountain thunder
Echoes my quest
My body aches but Ill not rest
Quartz light to guide me
Till sunrise leads
My passion screams, my heart it bleeds
From desert plains I bring you love
From desert plains I bring you love
Then in the distance
I see you stand
On the horizon you raise your hand
In burning rubber
I end my quest
You fall into my arms at last
From desert plains I bring you love
From desert plains I bring you love
