1.Strangers in the Night

    Written：Charles Singleton/Bert Kaempfert/Eddie Snyder

    Strangers in the night, exchanging glances,
    wondering in the night what were the chances
    we would fall in love before the night was through.

    Something in your eyes was so exciting,
    and in your smile, ooh, inviting.
    In my heart I knew I must have you.

2.I don't want the night to end

    And I don't want,
    I, I don't want,
    I don't want the night to end.

    Oh, daddy, daddy.
    Oh, daddy, daddy.
    Wastin' half my life
    on platforms underground,
    the other half I'm spending
    as a desperate clown.
    My problem now is that
    you're nowhere to be found.

    'Hi, operator.'
    'May I help you?'
    'Yeah, it's me again. Did you get him on the line yet? . . .
     Oh, this is awful. I've been trying to get him all day. . . .
     No, it's okay. I'll wait.'

4.Old Cape Cod

    If you're fond of sand dunes and salty air,
    quaint little villages here and there,
    you're sure to fall in love with Old Cape Cod.

    If you like the taste of a lobster stew
    served by a window with an ocean view,
    you're sure to fall in love with Old Cape Cod.

    Winding roads that seem to beckon you.
    Miles of green beneath the skies of blue.

6.Love says it's waiting

    You were told to wait there for love.
    Love says it's waiting for you.

    And all I want to say
    is I know it's never easy
    getting all dressed up with no place to go.

    Help, for, that's what we're here for.
    All one together.
    Is no one alone?

    Come see your sister.

7.Shiver Me Timbers/Samedi Et Vendredi

    Well, I'm leavin' my family, leavin' all my friends.
    My body's at home, but my heart's in the wind
    where the clouds are like headlines upon a new front page sky.
    My tears are salt water. The moon's full and high.

    And I know Martin Egan is gonna be proud of me.
    Many before me been called by the sea
    to be up in the crows nest singin' my saying:

8.No Jestering

    My Momma says that I must leave him alone.
    But how can I do that
    when I want him in my home?
    He watched me change from boys to boys
    and now I am his size.
    So how can I forget him now
    when I long to share his life?

    Mommy, Mommy, he loves your daughter.
    No jestering!
    No one can make me leave him.

    Wind storm, comes the sound.

    You've gone from me.
    Whoa, tragedy.

10.Marahuana

    I wait alone here in the Mexican sunlight,
    but the Mexican sunlight seems so lifeless and cold.
    Sad and forlorn, I try to find consolession
    with a man desperession, I cannot withhold.

    Soothe me with your caress
    sweet marahuana. Oh, marahuana.
    Help me in my distress
    sweet marahuana, please do.

11.Let me just follow behind

    Oh, to have you walking so near.
    You're an angel, my dear,
    and you ease my mind.
    I'll not kiss or hold you, my dear.
    Would you let me just follow behind.

    Now, I have loved me many fine men.
    Oh, so many fine men
    had a bed to share.
    I would trade these lovers gladly, my friend,
