I’ll Hold You in My Heart (Till I Can Hold You in My Arms)
Eddy Arnold
1947

I said I’d hold, I said I’d hold,
I said I’d hold you in my heart till I can hold you in my arms
Like you’ve never been held before
Well I’ll think of you each day and then I’ll dream the night away
Oh, till you are in my arms once more
The stars up in the sky, you know they know the reason why
I feel so blue cause I’m away from you
Yeah I’ll hold you in my heart till I can hold you in my arms
Oh darling please wait for me
You know the stars up in the sky, you know they know the reason why
I feel so blue cause I’m away, I’m away from you
Yeah I’ll hold you in my heart till I can hold you in my arms
Oh darling please wait for me
The stars up in the sky you know they know the reason why…
I feel so blue cause I’m away, I’m away from you
Yeah, I’ll hold you in my heart till I can hold you in my arms
Oh darling please wait for me

Que Sera Sera
1956

When I was just a little girl
I asked my mother, what will I be
Will I be pretty
Will I be rich
Here’s what she said to me
Que será, será
Whatever will be, will be
The future’s not ours to see
Que será, será
What will be, will be
When I grew up and fell in love
I asked my sweetheart, what lies ahead
Will we have rainbows
Day after day
Here’s what my sweetheart said
Que será, será
Whatever will be, will be
The future’s not ours to see
Que será, será
What will be, will be
Now I have children of my own
They ask their mother, what will I be
Will I be handsome
Will I be rich
I tell them tenderly
Que será, será
Whatever will be, will be
The future’s not ours to see
Que será, será
What will be, will be
Que será, será

Amanda
1973

I’ve held it all inward, God knows, I’ve tried
But it’s an awful awakening in a country boy’s life
To look in the mirror in total surprise
At the hair on my shoulders and the age in my eyes
Amanda, light of my life
Fate should have made you a gentleman’s wife
Amanda, light of my life
Fate should have made you a gentleman’s wife
It’s a measure of people who don’t understand
The pleasures of life in a hillbilly band
I got my first guitar when I was fourteen
Well I finally made forty, still wearing jeans
Amanda, light of my life
Fate should have made you a gentleman’s wife
Amanda, light of my life
Fate should have made you a gentleman’s wife
