Sinatra, Frank - I Concentrate On You Lyrics






Whenever skies look gray to me and trouble begins to brew
Whenever the winter winds become too strong
I concentrate on you

When fortune cries "Nay, nay" to me
And people declare "You're through"
Whenever the blues become my only songs
I concentrate on you

On your smile, so sweet, so tender
When at first my kiss you do decline
On the light in your eyes when you surrender
And once again our arms intertwine

And so when wise men say to me
That love's young dream never comes true
To prove that even the wise men can be wrong
I concentrate on you

[instrumental to end]

Sinatra, Frank I Concentrate On You Comments
  1. D.... G....

    This whole album couldn’t be more perfect. It’s like Tom Jobim made a pitcher of caipirinhas for Frank, got him nice & loose, and let him sing. It’s damned near a perfect record.

  2. B.... L....

    Too bad Jobim's comping is buried under strings.

    B.... L....

    The string arrangement is sexy as hell, though

  3. B.... I....

    Recorded on January 30, 1967.

  4. M.... E....

    A great Cole Porter song

  5. h.... N....

    Whoever thumbs down,well everyone has an opinion

  7. d.... s....

    My all time favorite album sinatra and jobim. It's Sinatras best no doubt! DWS

  8. h.... m....

    What a Marvellous orchestra

  9. l.... ....

    I bought two copies of this on LP when nit first came out because I knew that I would wear the first one down to nothing and I did. I replaced the second with a cassette and finally, the CD. I could listen to this endlessly and always find it fresh and seamless.

    l.... ....

    lisabugland So true, it never gets stale

  10. O.... ....

    This one's a keeper! Regards, The '62 Mathew St. 1-Man-Band (Total Retro Rock)

  11. I.... A....

    Em uma única gravação, o brilho de três gênios da canção: o autor, Cole Porter, o intérprete, o cantor mais famoso do mundo, por isso apelidado "the voice", Frank Sinatra, e o maestro soberano e arranjador, Antônio Carlos Jobim, embora o arranjo não seja a ele creditado.

  12. S.... S....

    Whenever skies look gray to me 
    and trouble begins to brew
    Whenever the winter winds become too strong
    I concentrate on you

    When fortune cries "Nay, nay" to me
    People declare "You're through"
    Whenever the blues become my only songs
    I concentrate on you

    On your smile, so sweet, so tender
    When at first my kiss you do decline
    On the light in your eyes when you surrender
    And once again our arms intertwine

    And so when wise men say to me
    That love's young dream never comes true
    To prove that even the wise men can be wrong
    I concentrate on you

    S.... S....

    Beautiful words xx

    S.... S....

    Whats the meaning of nay nay ?

  13. V.... F....

    I really like this. I didn't associate Sinatra with bossa nova.
    Very romantic tune.

    Composed by Antonio Carlos Jobim and sung by Frank Sinatra. These person's excellence have a greatest skills,talent and one of a genius creature in this planet. A very high level of intelligence when it comes to produced music. Both of these two person have extremely a good concept of music as a composer and as well a singer. Have extraordinary intellect, voice and outstanding mental capacity. As a writer he's the best, a singer one of it's kind. A gifted human being. I salute and respect both of them as well I loved their beautiful music. Amazing.awesome and gentle.

    It was actually written by Cole Porter for a movie (Broadway Melody) in 1940. Jobim gave it a Latin American twist, and between them he an Sinatra gave the song a new lease of life.

  17. s.... y....

    That is my kind of song. One of a song I like, one of the best songs I loved; maybe in heaven God count me Frank Sinatra my ideal singer and me .We meet in Heaven some of a days somehow Lord God bless me because, this is my dreams and of these days; one day I am gone this beloved planet God grant me. My dreams, my heartfelt wish to him.
