Music Tuesday: "The Way You Look Tonite" By Frank Sinatra

I was at a wedding this weekend, and as in most weddings quite a few of Frank Sinatra's music is played.  I love Franky.  He's my all time favorite singer in any music genre, truly the finest American singer that I can think of.  I can listen to Sinatra all night long.  So here's one.

 
 
Some day, when I'm awfully low,
When the world is cold,
I will feel a glow just thinking of you...
And the way you look tonight.

Yes you're lovely, with your smile so warm
And your cheeks so soft,
There is nothing for me but to love you,
And the way you look tonight.

With each word your tenderness grows,
Tearing my fear apart...
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose,
It touches my foolish heart.

Lovely ... Never, ever change.
Keep that breathless charm.
Won't you please arrange it ?
'Cause I love you ... Just the way you look tonight.

Mm, Mm, Mm, Mm,
Just the way you look to-night.

  1. This is the music I grew up listening to.

    Sinatra was a household word for my family. My dad had, (and has since given to me), his entire album collection.

    I only got to see him once live and that night is a memory which will be with me forever. What a showman!

  2. For what it is worth, I really like the song I did it "My Way" so for a guy who grew up on country and pop music maybe there's still a chance for me. Right? :)
