Chet Baker - Deep In A Dream
The smoke builds a stairway for you to descend.
You come to my arms, may this bliss never end.Awake or asleep, every memory I keep,
When I’m deep in a dream of you.Then from the ceiling, soft music comes stealing;
We glide in a lover’s refrain.And you’re so appealing, that I’m soon revealing
my love for you over again.My cigarette burns me; I wake with a start;
My hand isn’t hurt, but there’s pain in my heart.But we’ll love anew, just as we used to do
When I’m deep in a dream of you.
Chet Baker - They all laughed.
they all laughed at Christopher Columbus when he said the world was round. they all laughed when Edison recorded sound. they all laughed at Wilbur and his brother when they said that man could fly. they told Marconi, wireless was a phony. it’s the same old cry. they laughed at me wanting you, said I was reaching for the moon. but oh, you came through, now they’ll have to change their tune. they all said we never could be happy, they laughed at us and how! but ho, ho, ho! who’s got the last laugh now? whey all said we never could be happy, they laughed at us and how! for ho, ho, ho! who’s got the last laugh? hee, hee, hee! let’s at the past laugh, ha, ha, ha! who’s got the last laugh now?
