Tommy Dorsey

Thomas Francis "Tommy" Dorsey, Jr. (November 19, 1905 - November 26, 1956) was an American jazz trombonist, trumpeter, composer, and bandleader of the Big Band era. He was known as "The Sentimental Gentleman of Swing", due to his smooth-toned trombone playing. Although he was not known for being a notable soloist, his technicality with the trombone gave him renown amongst other musicians. He was vastly admired by other musicians, however, for his technical skill on his instrument. He was the younger brother of bandleader Jimmy Dorsey. After Dorsey broke with his brother in the mid-1930s, he led an extremely popular and highly successful band from the late 1930s into the 1950s. more »

I wish that we could live up in the sky
Where we would find a place away up high
We'd live among the stars, the sun , the moon
Just you and I.

East of the sun and west of the moon,
We'll build a dream house of love, dear.
Near to the sun in the day,
Near to the moon at night,
We'll live in a lovely way, dear,
Living on love and pale moonlight.
Just you and I,
Forever and a day;
Love will not die,
We'll keep it that way,
Up among the stars we'll find
A harmony of life to a lovely tune,
East of the sun and west of the moon, dear,
East of the sun and west of the moon.
