Shake Down The Stars - Original

Shake Down The Stars - Original - Ella Fitzgerald

Shake down the stars pull down the clouds

Turn off the moon do it soon

I can't enjoy this night without you

Shake down the stars

Dry up the streams

Stop all my dreams

Cut off the breeze do it please

I never thought I'd cry about you

Shake down the stars

I gave you my arms my lips my heart

My love my life my all

But the best that I had to offer you

I found was all too small

Crush every rose hush ev'ry prayer

Break every vow do it now

I know I can't go on without you

Shake down the stars

But the best that I had to offer you

I found was all too small

Crush every rose hush every prayer

Break every now do it now

Do it now

I know I can't go on without you shake down the star

So please

Shake down the star
