COME TO THE PARTY
(Joe Greene)
as recorded by June Christy
with Stan Kenton (piano)
1955
Have you lost a lover,
Lost a friend?
Then come to the party
At Rainbow's End.
Lost perspective,
Point of view?
Come to the party,
I'll be there too!
Just hang up your hat
On the first thing you find.
Watch where you step!
Don't you know that heart may be mine?
Your tears not for you,
The book is signed,
So come to the party
And leave the world behind.
Have you lost a lover?
Well, I have too!
So come to the party,
'Cause I'll be there too!
