The song was also recorded in French, German and Italian, under the titles "Tous les visages de l'amour" (English: All the Faces of Love), "Sie" (English: She) and "Lei" (English: She), respectively.

She may be the face I can't forget,
A trace of pleasure or regret,
May be my treasure or
The price I have to pay.

She may be the song that summer sings,
May be the chill that autumn brings,
May be a hundred different things
Within the measure of a day.

She may be the beauty or the beast,
May be the famine or the feast,
May turn each day into a
Heaven or a hell.

She may be the mirror of my dream,
A smile reflected in a stream,
She may not be what she may seem
Inside her shell.

She who always seems so happy in a crowd,
Whose eyes can be so private and so proud,
No one's allowed to see them
When they cry.

Take it easy with me, please

Touch me gently like a summer evening breeze

Take your time, make it slow

Andante, Andante

Just let the feeling grow

Make your fingers soft and light

Let your body be the velvet of the night

Touch my soul, you know how

Andante, Andante

Go slowly with me now

I'm your music

(I am your music and I am your song)

I'm your song

(I am your music and I am your song)

Play me time and time again and make me strong

(Play me again 'cause you're making me strong)

Make me sing, make me sound

(You make me sing and you make me)

Andante, Andante

Tread lightly on my ground

Andante, Andante

Oh please don't let me down

There's a shimmer in your eyes

Like the feeling of a thousand butterflies

Please don't talk, go on, play

Andante, Andante

And let me float away

I'm your music

(I am your music and I am your song)

I'm your song

(I am your music and I am your song)

Play me time and time again and make me strong

(Play me again 'cause you're making me strong)

Make me sing, make me sound

(You make me sing and you make me)

Andante, Andante

Tread lightly on my ground

Andante, Andante

Oh please don't let me down

Make me sing, make me sound

(You make me sing and you make me)

Andante, Andante

Tread lightly on my ground

Andante, Andante

Oh please don't let me down

Andante, Andante.

             John Royce Mathis (born September 30, 1935) is an American singer-songwriter of popular music. Starting his career with singles of standard music, he became highly popular as an album artist, with several dozen of his albums achieving gold or platinum status and 73 making the Billboard charts to date. Mathis has received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award and has been inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame for three separate recordings.

Although frequently described as a romantic singer, his discography includes traditional pop, Brazilian and Spanish music, soul, rhythm and blues, show tunes, Tin Pan Alley, soft rock, blues, country music, and even a few disco songs for his album Mathis Magic in 1979. Mathis has also recorded six albums of Christmas music. In a 1968 interview, Mathis cited Lena Horne, Nat King Cole, and Bing Crosby among his musical influences.

            "Misty" is a jazz standard written in 1954 by pianist Erroll Garner. He composed it as an instrumental in the traditional 32-bar format and recorded it for the album Contrasts (1955). Lyrics were added later by Johnny Burke. It became the signature song of Johnny Mathis, appearing on his 1959 album Heavenly and reaching number 12 on the U.S. Pop Singles chart later that year. The song has been recorded many times, including versions by Ella Fitzgerald and Frank Sinatra.

Look at me

I'm as helpless as a kitten up a tree

And I feel like I'm clinging to a cloud

I can't understand

I get misty, just holding your hand

 

Walk my way

And a thousand violins begin to play

Or it might be the sound of your hello

That music I hear

I get misty the moment you're near

 

You can say that you're leading me on

But it's just what I want you to do

Don't you notice how hoplessly I'm lost

That's why I'm following you

 

On my own

Would I wander through this wonderland alone

Never knowing my right foot from my left

My hat from my glove

I'm too misty and too much in love

[repeat after music interlude]

Look at me.

STAN GETZ PERFORMS

        Stanley Getz(February 2, 1927 – June 6, 1991) was an American jazz saxophonist. Playing primarily the tenor saxophone, Getz was known as "The Sound" because of his warm, lyrical tone, with his prime influence being the wispy, mellow timbre of his idol, Lester Young. Coming to prominence in the late 1940s with Woody Herman's big band, Getz is described by critic Scott Yanow as "one of the all-time great tenor saxophonists". Getz performed in bebop and cool jazz groups. Influenced by João Gilberto and Antônio Carlos Jobim, he also helped popularize bossa nova in the United States with the hit 1964 single "The Girl from Ipanema".

      Stan Getz was born on February 2, 1927, at St. Vincent's Hospital in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States. Getz's father Alexander ("Al") was a Ukrainian Jewish immigrant who was born in Mile End, London, in 1904, while his mother Goldie (née Yampolsky) was born in Philadelphia in 1907. His paternal grandparents Harris and Beckie Gayetski were originally from Kyiv, Ukraine but had migrated to escape the anti-Jewish pogroms to Whitechapel, in the East End of London. While in England they owned the Harris Tailor Shop at 52 Oxford Street for more than 13 years. In 1913, Harris and Beckie emigrated to the United States with their three sons Al, Phil, and Ben, following their son Louis Gayetski who had emigrated to the US the year before. Getz's original family name, "Gayetski", was changed to Getz upon arrival in America.

       The Getz family first settled in Philadelphia, but during the Great Depression the family moved to New York City, seeking better employment opportunities. Getz worked hard in school, receiving straight A's, and finished sixth grade close to the top of his class. Getz's major interest was in musical instruments and he played a number of them before his father bought him his first saxophone, a $35 alto saxophone, when he was 13. Even though his father also got him a clarinet, Getz instantly fell in love with the saxophone and began practicing eight hours a day. According to Getz, he only had about six months of lessons and never studied music theory or harmony.

      Getz attended James Monroe High School in the Bronx. In 1941, he was accepted into the All-City High School Orchestra of New York City. This gave him a chance to receive private, free tutoring from the New York Philharmonic's Simon Kovar, a bassoon player. He also continued playing the saxophone. He eventually dropped out of school in order to pursue his musical career but was later sent back to the classroom by the school system's truancy officers.
