a little chestnut...

i listen to music every morning while i am getting ready. yes, i am addicted to noise. i admit it. i am quite varied in my addiction, however, and this morning i decided that jazz was on the menu.

and jimmy durante started singing to me...and it made me smile...a genuine smile.

fairy tales can come true, it can happen to you
if you're young at heart
for its hard, you will find, to be narrow of mind
if you're young at heart

you can go to extremes with impossible schemes
you can laugh when your dreams fall apart at the seams
and life gets more exciting with each passing day
and love is either in your heart or on its way

don't you know that it's worth every treasure on earth
to be young at heart
for as rich as you are it's much better by far
to be young at heart

and if you should survive to 105
look at all youll derive out of being alive
then here is the best part
you have a head start
if you are among the very young at heart...
