A Room with a View

歌詞

As recorded at Las Vegas in June, 1955 A room with a view—and you, With no one to flurry us, No one to hurry us—through This dream we found. We'll gaze at the sky—and try To guess what it's all about, Then we will figure out—why The world is round. We'll be as happy and contented as birds upon a tree. High above the mountains and the sea. We'll bill and we'll coo-oo-oo And sorrow will never come, Oh, will it ever come true, Our room with a view? I've been cherishing Through the perishing Winter nights and days A funny little phrase That means Such a lot to me That you've got to be With me heart and soul For on you the whole Thing leans Come with me and leave behind the noisy crowds Sunlight shines for us above the clouds Please don't turn away Or my dream will stay Hidden out of sight Among a lot of 'might-have-beens' A room with a view—and you And no one to give advice. That sounds a paradise—few Could fail to choose. With fingers entwined we'll find Relief from the preachers who Always beseech us to mind Our P's and Q's. We'll watch the whole world pass before us, While we are sitting still, Leaning on our own window-sill. We'll bill and we'll coo And maybe a stork will bring This and t'other thing—to Our room with a view.
