Most of the trouble in this world has been caused by folks who can't mind their own business, because they have no business of their own to mind, any more than a smallpox virus has. - William S. Burroughs

You go to my head and you linger like a haunting refrain And I find you spinning 'round in my brain Like the bubbles in a glass of champagne You go to my head like a sip of sparkling Burgundy brew And I find the very mention of you Like the kicker in a julep or two :P
The thrill of the thought that you might give a thought to my plea Cast a spell over me Still I say to myself get a hold of yourself Can't you see that it never can be
You go to my head with a smile that makes my temperature rise Like a summer with a thousand Julys You intoxicate my soul with your eyes Though I'm certain that this heart of mine Hasn't a ghost of a chance in this crazy romance You go to my head

Judy Collins & Leonard Cohen - That's No Way to Say Goodbye
I loved you in the morning, our kisses deep and warm, your hair upon the pillow like a sleepy golden storm, yes, many loved before us, I know that we are not new, in city and in forest they smiled like me and you, but now it's come to distances and both of us must try, your eyes are soft with sorrow, Hey, that's no way to say goodbye.
I'm not looking for another as I wander in my time, walk me to the corner, our steps will always rhyme you know my love goes with you as your love stays with me, it's just the way it changes, like the shoreline and the sea, but let's not talk of love or chains and things we can't untie, your eyes are soft with sorrow, Hey, that's no way to say goodbye.

Billie Holiday (with Coleman Hawkins, Lester Young, Gerry Mulligan) - Fine and Mellow
My man don't love me Treats me oh so mean My man he don't love me Treats me awfully He's the lowest man That I've ever see
He wears high trimmed pan Stripes are really yellow He wears high trimmed pan Stripes are really yellow
But when he starts in to love me He's so fine and mellow
Love will make you drink and gamble Make you stay out all night long Love will make you drink and gamble Make you stay out all night long
Love will make you do things That you know is wrong
But if you treat me right baby I'll stay home everyday But if you treat me right baby I'll stay home everyday
But you're so mean to me baby I know you're gonna drive me away
Love is just like the faucet It turns off and on Love is just like the faucet It turns off and on
Sometimes when you think it's on baby It has turned off and gone!
Lester Young, a lyrical and innovative jazz saxophonist, was also famous as Billie Holiday's lover---she called him "Prez" and he called her "Lady Day." I think I can still see the "love light" in her eyes in this video as Lester solos.
Thank you for finding all that, would you like to join the woblies with me?
