george gershwin - liza lyrics
[jerry]
moon shining on the river
come along, my liza
[lise, spoken]
lise!
[jerry]
breeze singin’ through the treetops
come along, my liza
[lise, spoken]
lise!
[jerry, spoken]
not here. not with me
(sung)
something mighty sweet i want to whisper sweet and low
that you ought to know, my liza
(spoken)
try it!
(sung)
i get lonesome, honey, when i’m all alone so long
don’t make me wait, don’t hesitate
come and hear my song
liza, liza, skies are gray
but if you smile on me all the clouds’ll roll away
liza, liza, don’t delay
come, keep me company, and the clouds’ll roll away
see the honeymoon a-shining down
we should make a date with parson brown
so, liza, liza
name the day when you’ll belong to me
and the clouds’ll roll away
see the honeymoon a-shining down
we should make a date with parson brown
(spoken)
say you’ll meet me, right here. can’t a man and a woman just be friends? in america, they do it all the time
[lise, spoken]
i can be your friend, but no more than that
[jerry, spoken]
you’ll meet me?
[lise, spoken]
yes, but you have to swear to never tell anyone
[jerry, spoken]
i swear! oh, lise!
[lise, spoken]
no, liza!
