Frank Sinatra
Comp; Ira Gershwin & Vernon Duke
Recorded at the Resorts International, Atlantic City, New Jersey, November 24, 1979
I'm a glum one,
it's explainable,
I met someone unattainable
Life's a bore,
the world is my oyster no more..
In the papers where I lead the news with my capers,
now will spread the news
Superman turns out to be flash-in-the-pan,
I've flown around the world in a plane
I've settled revolutions in Spain
And the North Pole I have charted, still I can't get
started with you..
On the golf course I'm under par
Warner Brothers with love me the stars
I've got a house, a show place, still I can get no
place with you..
You're so supreme, lyrics I write of you
i dream, dream,.. day and night of you
Scheme just for the sight of you
But what good does it do
I've been consulted by Franklin D.
Joe Bushkin had i smoke tea
still I'm so broken hearted
Because i can't get started with you..
Love those intros!

I love this song so much, He sings it and also tells a story in one, that is Sinatra's big talent, the lyrics.
