My faith has gone, why lead me on this way. I thought there'd be no price on love, but I had to pay. If I could perform a miracle, I'd revive my thoughts of you. Yet I know that it's hopeless, you could never really care. That's why I despair. I'll go along, hoping someday that you'll learn, the flame in my heart

[singing] dear, forever will [singing] burn. Burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn. [singing] I will burn. It's gonna burn, it's gonna burn, it's gonna burn. Burn, burn, burn. The flame in my heart, dear [singing] forever will burn. [jazz music][applause]

[singing] Worries never cross my mind. [singing] I was so blasé. [singing] Well I was so much smoother, [piano] [singing] when you came my way. Now, happiness deludes me. Dear old friend, exclude me.

[singing] I can still see

[singing] a smile. Wishing you back won't make it happen. But wanting leaves me wishing for a while. Wake up each morning and dissapate [unintelligible].

Only two for tea, dear, from this moment on. [singing] From this lucky day, no more blues songs. Only whoop-de-doo songs, from this moment on. [singing] For you've got the love I need so much, you've got the skin I love to touch. Got the arms to hold me tight, got the sweet lips to kiss me goodnight. From this moment on,

[singing] you and I, babe, we'll be flying high, babe, every care is gone, from this moment on. [singing] Yeah. [jazz music] [jazz music] [jazz music] [jazz music]
