On of the best interpretation of Billie with Jimmy Rowles, and in very high quality, ..... take a look
A fine video where Lady Day and Satchmo show the world why they came for...
Billie Holiday left 50 years ago, but in our head her unique voice is still there... A very special thought of you Billie.

I'm a fool to want you
I'm a fool to want you
To want a love that can't be true
A love that's there for others too
Sunday is gloomy, my hours are slumberless
Dearest, the shadows I live with are numberless
Little white flowers will never awaken you
Not where the black coach of sorrow has taken you
You don't know what love is
Until you've learned the meaning of the blues
Until you've loved a love you've had to lose
You don't know what love is
The snow is snowing
The wind is blowing
But I can weather the storm
More Billie Holiday - I've Got My Love to Keep Me Warm Lyrics
I'll be seeing you
In all the old familiar places
That this heart of mine embraces
All day and through
Southern trees bear strange fruit
Blood on the leaves and blood at the root
Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze
Strange fruit hanging from the popular trees
There is no greater love than what I feel for you
No greater love, no heart so true
There is no greater thrill than what you bring to me
No sweeter song than what you sing to me
Mama may have, papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
Then that's got shall get
All of me
Why not take all of me
Can't you see
I'm no good without you
