Nat “King” Cole

Songwriter: Joe Sherman George David Weiss

Where there's a thumping heart
Where there's a silly grin
Where there's a starry eye, there's love

Where there's a dreamy day
Where there's a sleepless night
Where there's a tender sigh, there's love
There's love

And where there's loss of appetite
Like I'm feeling now
I guess you'd think there's love in sight
You're right and how

Where there's a wedding ring
Where there's a bride and groom
Where there's a honeymoon, so bright above
There's you and me and you bet your life, there's love

And where there's loss of appetite
Like I'm feeling now
I guess you'd think there's love in sight
You're right and how

There's you and me as man and wife
Always together, you bet your life
There's love
There's love
There's love

Nathaniel Adams Coles (17 March 1919 – 15 February 1965) was born in Montgomery, Alabama and used the stage name Nat “King” Cole throughout his career as a jazz pianist and later as a singer.

Cole’s first mainstream hit was “Straighten Up and Fly Right” in 1943. Bo Diddley, who performed similar folk-based material said that song was a big influence on him.

In the late 40s, Cole began recording more pop-oriented material. His stature as a pop singer was cemented by hits like “Route 66”, “Mona Lisa” and “Unforgettable”. In the 50s, virtually every home had a copy of his Christmas album.
