Harold Arlen Medley - Part I Lyrics by Bernadette Peters

Bernadette Peters In Concert

1980

You've gotta accentuate the positive
Eliminate the negative
Latch on to the affirmative
Don't mess with Mister In-Between
My mama done told me
When I was in pigtails
My mama done told me
A man's gonna sweet talk
And give you the big eye
But when the sweet talkin's done
A man is a two-face
A worrisome thing who'll leave ya to
Sing the blues in the night
That old black magic has me in its spell
That old black magic that you weave so well
Those icy fingers up and down my spine
Same old witchcraft when your eyes meet mine
Let's fall in love
Why shouldn't we fall in love?
Now is the time for it, while we are young
Let's fall in love
Love, love, hooray for love
Who was ever too blasé for love
Make this a night for love
If we have to fight, let`s fight for love ‘cause
I'm gonna love you, like nobody’s loved you
Come rain or come shine
Happy together, unhappy together
Won't it be fine
Days may be cloudy or sunny
We're in or we’re out of the money
I'm with you always
I'm with you rain or shine
It seem like happiness is just a thing called Joe
And when he kisses me its Christmas and I know
Troubles fly away and life is easy go
Does he love me?
Does he love me?
He’s got me in between
The devil and the deep blue sea
Fun to be fooled, fun to pretend
Fun to believe love is unending
I thought we were one
Still, it is fun being fooled again
Good riddance, goodbye
Every trick of his you're on to
But fools will be fools
And where's he gone to?
The man that won you
Has run off and undone you
That great beginning
Has seen the final ending
There's just no letup
The livelong night and day
Ever since this world began
There is nothing sadder than
A one-man woman
Looking for the man that got away
Don't know why
There's no sun up in the sky
Stormy weather
Since my man and I ain't together
Keeps raining all the time
When he went away
The blues walked in and met me
If he stays away, old rocking chair will get me
All I do is pray the lord above will let me
Walk in the sun once more
I can't go on
Everything I had is gone
Stormy weather
I just can’t get my poor self together
Keeps raining all the time
