Biography

US singer and actor with Italian origins. Born: 12 December 1915 in Hoboken, New Jersey, USA. Died: 14 May 1998 in Los Angeles, California, USA. Nicknamed "The Voice," "Ol' Blue Eyes," "The Chairman Of The Board," and "Frankie Boy." Beginning his musical career in the swing era with [a=Harry James (2)] and [a=Tommy Dorsey], Sinatra became a solo artist with great success after signing with [l=Columbia Records] in March 1943; he stayed with Columbia until he got dropped by the label in June '52. Sinatra signed a seven-year recording contract with [l=Capitol Records] on March 13, 1953, and released several critically lauded albums while with Capitol. Sinatra left Capitol to found his own record label in 1960, [l=Reprise Records], toured internationally, and fraternized with the Rat Pack and President [a=John F. Kennedy] in the early 1960s. Sinatra had three children, [a=Nancy Sinatra] (singer, artist), [a=Frank Sinatra Jr.] (musician), and [a=Tina Sinatra] (TV producer), all with his first wife, Nancy Barbato (married 1939 to 1951). He was married three more times, to actresses [a=Ava Gardner] (1951 to 1957) and [a=Mia Farrow] (1966 to 1968), and finally to model/showgirl Barbara Marx (married 1976), to whom he was still married at his death.

LYRICS

Lyrics/Music: Carson C. Parks
Ed. Chappell - Milano
I know I stand in line,
until you think you have the time
to spend an evening with me.
And if we go someplace to dance,
I know that there's a chance
you won't be leaving with me

And afterwards we drop into a quiet little place
And have a drink or two
and then I go and spoil it all
by saying something stupid
like: "I love you"

I can see it in your eyes
that you despise the same old lies
you heard the night before.
And though it's just a line to you
for me it's true
and never seemed so right before

I practice every day
to find some clever lines to say
to make the meaning come through
But then I think I'll wait
until the evening gets late
and I'm alone with you

The time is right
your perfume fills my head
the stars get red
and oh, the night's so blue.
And then I go and spoil it all,
by saying something stupid
like: "I love you"

. . . . . .

The time is right
your perfume fills my head
the stars get red
and oh, the night's so blue
And then I go and spoil it all
by saying something stupid
like: "I love you"
"I love you"
"I love you"
[fade out]
"I love you"
"I love you"...
