Bennett, Tony - All For You Lyrics
When you turned around and looked into my eyes
It was just the moment when I realized
That my life had just begun
And my past faded away
All I do is hope and pray
Now my world is so alive
My dreams came true
You’re the spirit that I need
It’s all from you
Every moment that I live my whole life through
Now I’ll look into your eyes and live for you
Now my world is so alive
You’re the spirit that I need
It’s all from you
Every moment that I live my whole life through
Now I’ll look into your eyes and live for you
All for you
When I look into your eyes

Bennett, Tony All For You Comments
My favorite Tony Bennett song -- written by Tony: I love singers who appreciate the art of lyrics enough to pen new words to an old melody you may not have heard of. I'm thinking of Tony Bennett. His wonderful words for a gorgeous melody by one of my guitar heroes – the Belgian Gypsy jazz giant, Django Reinhardt.
I like to think that Tony was painting (one of his lovely little paintings that are instantly worth upwards of 50 thousand dollars) and was listening for the umpteenth time to an instrumental version (practically the only kind that ever existed) of “Nuages” (clouds). And suddenly Tony, with a big smile, puts down his brush and writes – a lyric!
I singled out his achievement in a review for Amazon.com for my favorite of his latter-day recordings – ART OF ROMANCE. “Nuages” turned into “All For You” – whose song title finally appears in the final stanza:
. . . every moment that I live, my whole life through, now I'll look into your eyes and live for YOU. All for you.
One of those songs whose lyrics reserve to the last words the song title. The ideal of course is the very opposite: Make the opening words the ones that always come to mind whenever we think of your song. In this case: “When you turned around and looked into my eyes.” Tony would have known (and sung?) a Leslie Bricusse song with nearly the same title. So that (I like to imagine) when he took up his paintbrush again, the current greatest singer in all the world said to himself: “All for You” (will have to do).

For guitarists out there, the gorgeous tone and lovely licks are from Gray Sargent (on his own signature model Yamaha). Concerning whom, Wiki says
Gray Sargent (guitar). Gray Sargent has, to the best of our knowledge, played with Mr. Bennett longer than other members of the current quartet. Gray was a member of the Ralph Sharon Quartet (along with Clayton Cameron and Paul Langosch) and has played with Ruby Braff. He is a recognized jazz and swing guitarist.
[Amazon left my review in the spotlight. Don'tcha love it when they do that?

Voy a ir publicando mis canciones favoritas de toda la vida. No son de ahora, la mayoría tienen muchos años, pero les tengo un cariño especial, me siguen gustando muchísimo y las escucho a menudo. Esta es preciosa y muy romántica, la mejor canción que le he escuchado a Tony Bennett, que camino de los 90 años aún aguanta.
