Ella Fitzgerald - The man that got away

Tekst :

The night is bitter,
The stars have lost their glitter,
The winds grow colder,
And suddenly you re older
And all because of
The man that got away.

No more his eager call,
The writing s on the wall,
The dreams you dreamed have all
Gone astray.
The man that won you
Has run off and undone you.
That great beginning
Has seen it s final inning,
Don t know what happened
It s all a crazy game.

No more that all-time thrill
For you ve been through the mill,
And never a new love will
Be the same.

Good riddance, good-bye.
Every trick of his you re on to -
But fools will be fools and where s he gone to?

The road gets rougher,
It s lonelier and tougher.
With hope you burn up,
Tomorrow he may turn up.
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 . . .



The road gets rougher,

Ever since this world began
There is nothing sadder than
A one-man woman
Looking for the man
The man that got away . . .

The man that got away . . .

    Somewhere in the world

    Time, changer of seasons, time will see another flower growing.
    Climb over the mountains, there you ll find warm winds blowing.

    Somewhere in the world there is peace of mind.
    Somewhere in the world that s what I must find.
    Somewhere in the world there...

    The gloaming

    Genie let out the bottle
    It is now the witching hour
    Genie let out the bottle
    It is now the witching hour

    Murderers you re murderers
    We are not the same as you

    Genie let out the bottle
    Funny haha funny how

    When the walls bend
    When...

    No one compares

    I can t sleep, I m lonely tonight
    I wish you were here by my side
    I should have told you constantly
    How much you really mean, mean to me
    Oh I never thought you d walk out my life
    I never thought I lived without your smile
    The sound of your voice is haunting me
    And...

    Loneliness game

    She could have anything
    But still she s down
    The happiness that means everything
    Is not around
    On the outside
    It looks like a perfect world
    Inside I know what you re thinking
    She s too pretty to be sad
    She s...

    Grossalarm

    Grossalarm, weil alles schläft.
    Grossalarm, sonst ist es zu spät.

    Weil jeder es mit jedem kann,
    weil jeder Mensch Verständnis hat,
    weil keiner mehr provozieren kann,
    keinen geht mehr irgendetwas an.

    Großalarm, Großalarm

    Warum springt hier keiner mehr auf?
    Warum bleiben alle zu Haus?
    Warum lehnt sich keiner mehr auf
    und schreit heraus:

    Großalarm, weil sich nichts bewegt.
    Großalarm, weil alles still...
