I just felt that if Paulie can write a jazzy song today then it must be jazzy song day....This is swing...........


Oh just groove into the notion
let emotion take you away
don't talk down or negative
look for love another way
like a fresh breeze off the ocean
on a sunny afternoon
sing a song like old Bing Crosby
let blue skies smile at you


Chorus:
I'm talkin bout a big change
playin the lover's game
I mean set your heart free
just let your soul escape
talkin bout a big change
spin the wheel of fate
oh just make a big change
with a can do smilin face


Do ya wanna serve like Sampras
with a big ace in the hole
then use your clout when they see you out
with your confidence aglow
they'll find you contagious
you'll put the chickies in the mood
they'll look back you'll knock'em flat
with your can't miss attitude....


Chorus:
I'm talkin bout a big change
playin the lover's game
I mean set your heart free
just let your soul escape
talkin bout a big change
spin the wheel of fate
oh make the big change
with a can do smilin face
Bridge
oh walk the walk
dance the dance
with romance in your eyes
don't be shy.....

Chorus:
I'm talkin bout a big change
playin the lover's game
I mean set your heart free
just let your soul escape
talkin bout a big change
spin the wheel of fate
oh make the big change
with a can do smilin face

Hi ethome, and I for one, LOVE swing!!!!  This is great, and my feet were tapping as I read...I can almost hear the tune playing, the horns in the background, and the singer belting it out!!!  Great job here!!!!!  ~S~

Accept these small gifts from my gypsy heart  ~~S~~

I don't know if it is blue skies smiling at me right now but I do know I am smiling enough to light up a stormy sky.

Now ethome my friend, why haven't you shared this with me before? Geeezzzzz, this info could have saved me so much time and effort.  LOL
Seriously my friend, it is a beatiful song and I am elated to have been able to find one of yours here today.  You can't see me but I am giving you a standing ovation for this one and calling for an encore.  No, really ... I am.  Well, okay, I feel silly standing in front of my puter clapping a yelling with lighter in air so you will have to accept that I would if stage were presented in front of me with your melodies spilling across the waves of air.
