Imagination

Artist: Frank Sinatra w/Tommy Dorsey Orchestra—from the CD “Tommy Dorsey

and Frank Sinatra-Stardust” (Bluebird 61073-2)

Words and Music by Jimmy Van Heusen and Johnny Burke


(instrumental opening—complete verse, chorus, and verse)

Imagination is funny, it makes a cloudy day sunny

Makes a bee think of honey just as I think of you

Imagination is crazy, you whole perspective gets hazy

Starts you asking a daisy what to do, what to do


CHORUS:

Have you ever felt a gentle touch and then a kiss and then, and then

Find it’s only your imagination again, oh well


Imagination is silly, you go around willy-nilly

For example I go around wanting you

And yet I can’t imagine that you want me too


(instrumental close—final 3-line verse)
