Heaven on Earth (02:36)
The Platters • The Very Best Of
Heaven on earth
that's what you've made
for me since the day we met
Heaven on earth
it's all been so thrilling
I never can forget, uh-oh

Heaven on earth
alone with an angel
is living in dreams come true
Heaven on earth
I know that it happens only when I'm with you

Paradise seemed so far
Like a star, it twinkled high above me
Now I'm wise paradise
isn't far at all when you're around to love me
love me

Oh, heaven on earth
no need in waiting
waiting until I die
Heaven on earth
that's what you've made
a heaven for you and I

A heaven for you and I
(For you and I)

Ebb Tide (02:26)
The Platters • The Very Best Of
First the tide rushes i-in
Plants a kiss on the-e shore-ore-ore
Then rolls out to sea
And the sea is very still once more-ore

So I rush to your-our si-ide
Like the on-comi-ing tide
With one burning thought
Will your arms open wide

At last we're face to face
And as we kiss through an embrace
I can te-ell, I-I can feel
You are love, you are rea-ea-ea-eally mi-i-ine

In the rai-ai-ain
In the dark
In the su-un
Like the tide at its e-ebb
I'm at peace in the we-eb
Of your arms...

Smoke Gets in Your Eyes (02:40)
The Platters • The Very Best Of
They asked me how I knew
My true love was true
Oh, I of course replied
Something here inside cannot be denied

They said someday you'll find
All who love are blind
Oh, when your heart's on fire
You must realize
Smoke gets in your eyes

So I chaffed them and I gaily laughed
To think they could doubt my love
Yet today my love has flown away
I am without my love

Now laughing friends deride
Tears I can not hide
Oh, so I smile and say
When a lovely flame dies
Smoke gets in your eyes
Smoke gets in your eyes

The Great Pretender (02:40)
The Platters • The Very Best Of
Oh-oh, yes I'm the great pretender
Pretending that I'm doing well
My need is such I pretend too much
I'm lonely but no one can tell

Oh-oh, yes I'm the great pretender
Adrift in a world of my own
I've played the game but to my real shame
You've left me to grieve all alone

Too real is this feeling of make-believe
Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal

Yes, I'm the great pretender
Just laughin' and gay like a clown
I seem to be, what I'm not, you see
I'm wearing my heart like a crown
Pretending that you're still around

Too real is this feeling of make-believe
Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal

Yes, I'm the great pretender
Just laughin' and gay like a clown
I seem to be, what I'm not, you see
I'm wearing my heart like a crown
Pretending that you're still around

Still around

I'll Never Smile Again (02:55)
The Platters • The Very Best Of
I'll never smile again
Until I smile at you
I'll never laugh again
What good would it do?
For tears would fill my eyes
My heart would realize
That our romance is through

I'll never love again
I'm so in love with you
I'll never thrill again
To somebody new
Within my heart
I know I will never start
To smile again
Until I smile at you

One in a Million (02:54)
The Platters • The Very Best Of
There is one in a million like you
A dream in a million come true
I confess that I really don't know why
But I know that I glow like I do
Yes once in a million is par
To find someone rare as you are

But now you're around
I have really found
That there's one in a million like you
Fate was surely kind to help my heart
find someone like you to be my love
I give thinks each day
That you came my way

Way out of heaven to try love
Yes one in a lifetime you know
Above heaven started below
Tho it may be rare
You and I will share
The love that has happened to few
For there's one in a million like you

My Dream (02:40)
The Platters • The Very Best Of
When the twilight is gone and no songbirds are singing
When the twilight is gone you come into my heart
And here in my heart you will stay while I pray

My prayer is to linger with you
At the end of the day in a dream that’s divine
My prayer is a rapture in blue
With the world far away and your lips close to mine

Tonight while our hearts are aglow
Oh tell me the words that I’m longing to know

My prayer and the answer you give
May they still be the same for as long as we live
That you’ll always be there at the end of my prayer

My Prayer (02:46)
The Platters • The Very Best Of
(Jimmy Kennedy and Georges Boulanger)

When the twilight is gone and no songbirds are singing
When the twilight is gone you come into my heart
And here in my heart you will stay while I pray

My prayer is to linger with you
At the end of the day in a dream that's divine
My prayer is a rapture in blue
With the world far away and your lips close to mine

Tonight while our hearts are aglow
Oh tell me the words that I'm longing to know

My prayer and the answer you give
May they still be the same for as long as we live
That you'll always be there at the end of my prayer

It Isn't Right (02:29)
The Platters • The Very Best Of
It isn't right for you to hurt me
It isn't right to make me blue
It isn't right to take my kisses
And give them to somebody new
It isn't right for you to promise
A million dreams that can't come true
It isn't right to start a flame
Deep within my heart
Then let it go out like a light
It isn't right

Red Sails in the Sunset (02:23)
The Platters • The Very Best Of
Red sails in the sunset, way out on the sea}
Oh, carry my loved one home safely to me
{She sailed at the dawning, all day I've been blue}
Red sails in the sunset, I'm trusting in you

Swift wings you must borrow
Make straight for the shore
We marry tomorrow
And she goes sailing no more

{Red sails in the sunset, way out on the sea}
Oh, carry my loved one home safely to me

Swift wings you must borrow
Make straight for the shore
We marry tomorrow
And she goes sailing no more

{Red sails in the sunset}
Way out on the sea (ooh-wee-ooh, wee-ooh)
Oh, carry my loved one
{Home safely to me}

If I Didn't Care (03:10)
The Platters • The Very Best Of
If I didn't care more than words can say
If I didn't care would I feel this way?
If this isn't love then why do I thrill?
And what makes my head go 'round and 'round
While my heart stands still?

If I didn't care would it be the same?
Would my ev'ry prayer begin and end with just your name?
And would I be sure that this is love beyond compare?
Would all this be true if I didn't care for you?

MONOLOGUE: If I didn't care honey child, mo' than words can say. If I didn't
care baby, would I feel this way? Darlin' if this isn't love, then why do I thrill so
much? What is it that makes my head go 'round and 'round while my heart just stands
still so much ?

If I didn't care would it be the same?
Would my ev'ry prayer begin and end with just your name?
And would I be sure that this is love beyond compare?
Would all this be true if I didn't care for you?

Twilight Time (02:47)
The Platters • The Very Best Of
Heavenly shades of night are falling
It's twilight time
Out of the mist your voice is calling
It's twilight time
When purple colored curtains
Mark the end of the day
I hear you my dear at twilight time

Deepening shadows gather splendor
As day is done
Fingers of night will soon surrender
The setting sun
I count the moments darling
Till you're here with me
Together at last at twilight time

Here in the after-glow of day
We keep our rendez-vous beneath the blue
Here in the sweet and same old way
I fall in love again as I did then

Deep in the dark your kiss will thrill me
Like days of old
Lighting the spark of love that fills me
With dreams untold
Each day I pray for evening just
To be with you
Together at last at twilight time

Together at last at twilight time

To Each His Own (02:52)
The Platters • The Very Best Of
A rose must remain with the sun and the rain
Or its lovely promise won't come true
To each his own, to each his own
And my own is you

What good is a song if the words just don't belong?
And a dream must be a dream for two
No good alone, to each his own
For me there's you

CHORUS
If a flame is to grow there must be a glow
To open each door there's a key
I need you, I know, I can't let you go
Your touch means too much to me

Two lips must insist on two more to be kissed
Or they'll never know what love can do
To each his own, I've found my own
One and only you

REPEAT FROM CHORUS

I'm Sorry (02:56)
The Platters • The Very Best Of
I'm sorry for the things I've done
I know that I'm the foolish one
Now that I see who's to blame
I'm so ashamed, I'm sorry

I'm sorry for the things I've said
Just like a child I lost my head
I should have known from the start
I'd break your heart, I'm sorry

Please be kind and I know you'll find
Its so easy to forgive
Darling, wait for its not too late
Give our love a chance to live

I know the heartaches you've been through
I know for I've had heartaches, too
There's nothing more I can do
But say to you I'm sorry

Darling, I'm truly sorry

Enchanted (02:54)
The Platters • The Very Best Of
Living is a dream when you make it seem enchanted
Lovers take for granted all the world's aglow, they ought to know
When you touch a star then you really are enchanted
Find a seed and plant it, love will make it grow

It's really grand when you stand hand in hand with your lover
And thrill to the wonders of night
And days, too, will amaze you and soon you'll discover
Your dreams run to dreams in continuous flight

Love is ecstasy, it's divine to be enchanted
When your dreams are slanted through a lover's eyes

It's really grand when you stand hand in hand with your lover
And thrill to the wonders of night
And days, too, will amaze you and soon you'll discover
Your dreams run to dreams in continuous flight

Love is ecstasy, it's divine to be enchanted
When your dreams are slanted through a lover's eyes

It's really grand when you stand hand in hand with your lover
And thrill to the wonders of night
And days, too, will amaze you and soon you'll discover
Your dreams run to dreams in continuous flight

Love is ecstasy, it's divine to be enchanted
When your dreams are slanted through a lover's eyes
