See headers | Hi everyone!
I'm working on a lyrics archive for my Bernadette site
(http://bernadette.cjb.net) and I'm wondering if someone could help me figure
out the lyrics to "Making Love Alone" from the "Sondheim, Etc." CD? Here's
what I have so far:
Making Love Alone
(Marilyn Miller & Cheryl Hardwick)
A log thrown on the fire
Two profiles met as one
The igniting of desire in the air
But when there's just one profile
And yet desire grows
Despite the fact there's no one else to care
Must romance be abandoned
As it's fanning it's own flame
Waiting to ????????
No!
There's a special kind of bliss
Not engendered with a kiss
Syruptitiously indulged in less wellknown
For when one can not make love with another
One can still make love alone.
There's a certain special magic
To the touch of your own hand
And the special thrill knowing that you will for
sure
Soon be feeling grand.
?????
You don't have to try to postpone
That's what it's like when you're making love alone
Oh the sweet sweet sound of your own breathing
As the sky turns pale-pink to hot
And the special thrill knowing that you will not
catch
God-only-knows what
It's the kind of love that fit's hand in glove
And bursts like a ?????
That's what it's like when you're making love alone
Who can describe the special sweetness of knowing
The speed that you're going is right
And is there anything as thrilling as trying to keep the
book open
To page 24 all night
How reassuring to know that it's finally time to go
That you'll still be there when you leave
And as dawn is breaking you hear yourself making
A date for New Year's Eve
It's the kind of love that fits hand in glove
Especially when the glove is your own
Oh!
For the date who you can't see their faces
The one who knows all the best places
Who'll never ask your sign on the phone
No no no signs
Due to simple magic of making love
Not taking, faking, mistaking love
The simple magic of making love alone
Save on cologne!
That's what it's like
When you're making love alone
Oh, alone!
Anyone who can fill in any ????? or fix anything, please do! Thanks!
Tim

See headers | i think these are the lyrics. just a guess though...
A log thrown on a fire
Two profiles met as one
The igniting of desire in the air
But when there's just one profile,
And yet desire grows
Despite the fact there's no one else to care.
Must romance be abandoned
As it's fanning its own flame?
Waiting to burst full-blown.
There's a special kind of bliss,
Not engendered with a kiss.
Syruptitiously indulged in less well known.
For when one can not make love with another...
one can still make love alone.
There's a certain special magic
To the touch of your own hand.
And a special thrill knowing that you will for sure
Soon be feeling grand.
And the tender smell of rapture,
you don't have to try to postpone,
that's what it's like when you're making love alone...
Oh the sweet sweet sound of your own breathing,
as the sky turn pale pink to hot,
and the special thrill knowing that you will not catch
God only knows what.
It's the kind of love that fits hand in glove,
And bursts like a bud full-blown.
That's what its like when you're making love alone.
Who can describe the special sweetness of knowing
The speed that your going is right,
And is there anything as thrilling as trying to keep the book open
To page 24 all night
How reassuring to know when it's finally time to go
That you'll still be there when you leave,
And as dawn is forbreaking you hear yourself making
A date for New Years Eve.
It's the kind of love that fits hand in glove,
Especially when the glove is your own!
For the date when you can't see thier faces,
The one who knows all the best places,
Who'll never ask your sign on the phone,
No no no signs,
Due the simple magic of making love,
Not taking, faking, mistaking love,
The simple magic of making love alone,
Save on cologne!
That's what its like when you're making love alone
Oh, alone...
I hope this helps...but like I said...I'm not sure about these lyrics

See headers | "Waiting to burst full blown..."
"And a tender swell of rapture..."
"And bursts like a bud full blown..."
Those are the order of the ?'s i believe.
