The song a robin sings,
Through years of endless springs,
The murmur of a brook at evening tides.
That ripples through a nook where two lovers hide.
That great symphonic theme,
That's stella by starlight,
And not a dream,
My heart and I agree,
She's everything on this earth to me.
That great symphonic theme,
That's stella by starlight,
And not a dream,
My heart and I agree,
When an early autumn walks the land and chills the breeze
And touches with her hand the summer trees
Perhaps you'll understand what memories I own
There's a dance pavilion, all shuttered down
A winding country lane, all russet brown
A frosty windowpane shows me a town grown lonely
That spring of ours that started, so April-hearted
Seemed made for just a boy and girl
I never dreamed, did you, any fall could come in view
So early, early
Darling, if you care, please let me know
I'll meet you anywhere, I miss you so
If I should write a book for you
That brought me fame and fortune too
That book would be like my heart and me
Dedicated to you.
And, if I should paint a picture too
That showed the loveliness of you
My art would be, like my heart and me,
Dedicated to you.
To you, because your love is the beacon that lights up my way.
To you because with you I know one lifetime could be just one heavenly place.
If I should find a twinkling star
One half so wonderous as you are.
That star would be, like my heart and me,
Dedicated to you.
To you, because your love is a beacon that lights up my way
To you because with you I know one lifetime could be just one heavenly place
If I should find a twinkling star
One half so wonderous as you are
That star would be like my heart and me
Hear me, why you keep fooling
Little coquette, making fun of the one who loves you
Breaking hearts you are ruling
Little coquette, true hearts tenderly dreaming of you.
Someday you'll fall in love as I fell in love with you.
Maybe the one you love will just be fooling too.
And when you are alone with all your regrets,
You know, my little coquette, I love you.
Someday you'll fall in love as I fell in love with you.
Now, maybe the one you love will just be fooling too.
And when you are alone with all your regrets,
Blue Moon
Blue Moon,
You saw me standing alone,
Without a dream in my heart,
Without a love of my own,
Blue moon,
You knew just what I was there for,
You heard me saying a prayer for,
Someone I really could care for.
Bridge:
*And then there suddenly appeared before me,
The only one my arms will ever hold,
I heard somebody whisper "please adore me,"
And when I looked the moon had turned to gold,
Blue moon,
Now I'm no longer alone,
Without a dream in my heart,
Despu
Outside of me you try to picture me
Young and black that ain't no mystery
But inside runs deep like an ocean
You couldn't understand if I spoke in slow motion
I'm tryin like hell to get some results
But you can bet your ass that it's difficult
They try to keep it down because I talk to a beat
in other words because I try to TEACH
But if I talk that yang yang shit
like U Can't Touch This that shit'll hit
Don't we have any morals anymore?
Or did rap take the toll out the fuckin door?
Well if it did, hardcore's back to claim it
I'ma take it, change it, FUCK IT, rename it
I got the plan, now let's make it effective
You hip-hoppers you GOT to be selective
And stop lettin that BULLSHIT slide for rap
Can't you see that it's a brainwash.. trap?
I rap a Cha Cha Cha, and I sat and watched
You liked that shit, you rock around the fuckin clock
But when I talk of education, you fear that
Drugs and such, you don't wanna hear that
First I pleased you, now I teach you
DON'T YOU DARE try to bite the hand that'll lead you
to the pot of gold, over the rainbow
Lyte'll guide you, I know the way to go
So just close your eyes and just take my hand
Remember MC Lyte has the master plan
We can go THICK, in a posse
You ain't said nuttin slick, I'm goin kamikaze
..
Inside of me, you try to picture me
Can you detect, can you see I'm angry?
Well usually Lyte don't get upset
But when I see wack shit gettin pressed I get VEXED
Turn on the video -- what's this mess?
A disgrace to rap and I'm not impressed
So just leave, get out my domain
You lame sucker, you fuckin no-name
Takin up my airtime, with that
WEAK WHACK FULL OF FULL OF BULLSHIT RHYME
so step off ROACH, or get stepped upon
Because my rhymes they spray like D-Con 4
Do you want more?
Cause I floor.. ANY emcee
that wanna gets with me
So yo, pack your bags, and skedaddle
Just walk, cause you don't wanna battle
I got the button that'll get rid of wack emcees
It's called the Brooklynizer, have you beggin on your knees
So quit takin up space on the CD rack
You better prepare, cause Lyte gives no slack
Inside of me, dwells a hundred maniacs
Waitin for the kickoff, waitin for attack
Who gives a FUCK?? Bring your posse!
Cause in the 90's, Lyte is goin kamikaze
..
Inside -- there's no flipside
Outside there's more than meets the eye
So now you know, not because you're guessin
But because I told you so, I never fess
Everyone wants to rap, what's this a wagon?
Bring your band and hop and start draggin
All you rappers, you're fuckin impersonators
Sayin I'll rap now, and learn how to rap later
No time for that, time is too short
And the rappin gift it can not be bought
A solo artist - HAH, you can't be
Maybe you'll look BETTER with a posse
But all that you're talkin, you ain't sayin shit!
So why you where you at? I think you oughta quit
Posses don't MATTER in the 90's
Here's a warning -- Lyte is goin kamikaze!

Gonna make you wonder
Gonna make you mad
Same old heartache: your best friend
Has come to visit once again
Your mistake was in the beginning
When you thought that he would last
When you weren't looking
No you weren't listenining
And once he left you broke like glass
Let this be a lesson to ya
Take this message to your heart
Love is gonna slip right through ya
You got to watch it from the start
Thought you had yourself a true love
Thought he was in love with you
But he was just like a devil
Took your heart and broke it too
Well there's no telling who's on the level
And there's no way to know what's real
Just remember how it all happened
And be sure that you know
Who's got the deal
Let this be a lesson to ya
Take my message to your heart
Love is gonna slip right through ya
You got to watch it from the start
Let this be a lesson to ya
Take my message to your heart
Love is will slip right through ya
You got to watch it from the start
(Let this be a lesson to ya)
Ooh, let this be a lesson
(Take my message to your heart)
Take my message to your heart (Love)
Love will slip right through ya (You've got to, you've got)
You've got to, you've got to
(You've got to watch it from the start)
You've got to watch it from the start)
(Let this be a lesson to ya)
Ooh, let this be a lesson
(Take my message to your heart)
Take my message to your heart (Love is gonna slip right through ya)
Love will slip right through ya (You've got to, you've got)
You've got to, you've got to
(You've got to watch it from the start)
You've got to watch it from the start)
(Let this be a lesson to ya)
Ooh, let this be a lesson
(Take my message to your heart)
Take my message to your heart
Years go by, still I recall
How we met one day
When you passed my way
In the rain
Most of all I can forget
How you thrilled me then
With each kiss we shared
In the rain
Ever though, it thundered so
Our hearts were full of joy
Heaven held fulfilled the dreams
Of gallant boy
When it rains, I'll still recall
How we found romance
When we met by chance
I gotta right to sing the blues,
I gotta right to feel low down
I gotta right to hang around.
Down around the river.
A certain gal in this old town.
Keeps draggin' my poor heart around.
All I see right for me,
Is… is misery.
I gotta right to sing the blues.
I gotta right to moan and sigh.
I gotta right to sit and cry.
Down around the river.
I know the deep blue sea
Will soon be callin' me.
It must be love, say what you choose.
I gotta right to sing the blues.
If I told a lie, if I made you cry
When I said goodbye, I'm sorry
From the bottom of my heart, dear
I apologize
If I caused you pain, I know I'm to blame
Must have been insane, believe me
From the bottom of my heart, dear
I apologize
I realize I've been unfair to you
Please let me make amends
Don't say that you forgot the love we knew
After all, we were more than friends
Give me back your glance, give me back romance
Give me one more chance, forgive me
From the bottom of my heart, dear
I apologize
If I made you blue, I've had heartaches too
Now I beg of you, forgive me
From the bottom of my heart, dear
The night is like a lovely tune, beware my foolish heart
How white the ever constant moon, take care, my foolish heart
There's a line between love and fascination
That's hard to see on an evening such as this
For they give the very same sensation
When you are lost in the passion of a kiss
Your lips are much too close to mine, beware my foolish heart
But should our eager lips combine, then let the fire start
For this time it isn't fascination, or a dream that will fade and fall apart
Look at me, Im as helpless as a kitten up a tree;
And I feel like Im clingin to a cloud,
I can t understand
I get misty, just holding your hand.
Walk my way,
And a thousand violins begin to play,
Or it might be the sound of your hello,
That music I hear,
I get misty, the moment youre near.
Cant you see that youre leading me on?
But its just what I want you to do,
Dont you notice how hopelessly Im lost
Thats why Im following you.
On my own,
When I wander through this wonderland alone,
Never knowing my right foot from my left
My hat from my glove
Im too misty, and too much in love.
Too misty,
And too much
Jealousy, night and day you torture me
I sometimes wonder if this spell that I'm under
Can be only a melody, for I know no one but me
Has won your heart, but when the music starts
My peace departs from the moment
They play that lovely strain
And we surrender to all it's charm again
This jealousy that tortures me is ecstasy, mystery, pain
We dance to a tango of love
Your heart beats with mine as we sway
Your eyes give the answer I'm dreaming of
That soft word your cruel lips will never say
I fear that the music will end
And shatter the spell it may lend
To make me believe when your eyes just deceive
(Billy)
We seem like passing strangers now
How can you hurry by
(Sarah)
There where never two who loved
Half as much as you and I
We seem like passing strangers now
Funny how things can change
(Billy)
We where so inseparable
Now you're acting very strange
(Both)
The hands I used to touch
Don't even wave hello
(Billy)
How I miss your lips you'll never know
(Sarah)
If you would only turn to me
Speak my name just once more
You might find right there and then
(Both)
Strangers can be lovers again
(Sarah)
The hands I used to touch
Don't even wave hello
(Billy)
How I miss your lips you'll never know
If you would only turn to me
(Both)
Speak my name just once more
(Sarah)
You might find right there and then
(Both)
No one but you could take my heart before you came
No one but you could make my heart burst into flame
Now I hear myself confessing
All the dreams I’ve been suppressing
All at once my lips are blessing your name
* Your hands are cool, your eyes are warm
Your smile is bliss
I’d be a fool to fear the storm that’s in your kiss
Let your kiss destroy or save me, so shall it be
Till life is through, no one but you for me
A little dream castle
With every dream gone
Is lonely and silent
The shades are all drawn
And my heart is heavy
As I gaze upon
A cottage for sale
The lawn we were proud of
Is waving in hay
A beautiful garden
Has withered away
Where you planted roses
The weeds seem to say
A cottage for sale
From every single window
I see your face
But when I reach the window
There's empty space
The key's in the mailbox
The same as before
But no one is waiting
For me anymore
The end of our story
Is there on the door
April in Paris, chestnuts in blossom
Holiday tables under the moon
April in Paris, this is a feeling
No one can ever reprise
I never knew the charm of spring
Never met it face to face
I never knew my heart could sing
Never missed a warm embrace, till
April in Paris, whom could I turn to
What have you done to my heart
I never knew the charm of spring
Never met it face to face
I never knew my heart could sing
Never missed a warm embrace, till
April in Paris, whom could I turn to
Leaves come down 'round my head
Some are brown, some are red
Beautiful to see
But reminding me
Of a faded summer love
Swaying high above
In the trees
They were so in love
With a breeze
Now the autumn wind
Brings with them the end
Of a faded summer love
I'm like a poor leaves
That swayed with the breeze
I thought that life was sweet
You are the sweet breeze
That tried hard to please
And swept me off my feet
Summer morning dew
Turns to frost
Leaves that once were new
They?
Beautiful to see
But reminding me
Of a faded summer love
I thought that life was sweet
You are the sweet breeze
That tried hard
To please
Then swept off my feet
But now the summer morning dew
Turns to frost
Leaves that once were new
They look?
Beautiful to see
But reminding me
I love you oh so madly
I need your love so badly
But I don't stand a
Ghost of a chance with you
I thought at last I had found you
But other arms surround you
And I don't stand a
Ghost of a chance with you
If you'd surrender just for
A tender kiss or two
You might discover that
I'm the lover meant for you
And I'd be true
So what's the good of all my scheming?
I know I must be dreaming
For I don't stand a
The evening breeze
Caressed the trees tenderly
The trembling trees
Embraced the breeze tenderly
Then you and I came wandering by
And lost in a sigh were we
The shore was kissed by sea
And mist tenderly
I can't forget how two hearts
Met breathlessly
Your arms opened wide
And closed me inside
You took my lips,
I hate's to see dat ev'nin' sun go down
Hate's to see dat ev'nin' sun go down
Cause ma baby, she done lef' dis town
If I feel tomorrow lak ah feel today
Feel tomorrow lak ah feel today
I'll pack up my trunk, and make ma git away
Saint Louis woman wid her diamon' rings
Pulls dat man 'roun' by her apron strings
'Twern't for powder an' her store-bought hair
De man she love wouldn't gone nowhere, nowhere
Got dem Saint Louis Blues I'm as blue as ah can be
Like a man done throwed that rock down into de sea
Got dem Saint Louis Blues I'm as blue as ah can be
Went to de gypsy get her fortune tole
To de gypsy, done got her fortune tole
Cause she most wile 'bout her Jelly Roll
Now dat gypsy tole her, "Don't you wear no black"
She done tole her, "Don't you wear no black
Go to Saint Louis, you can win him back"
If she git toCairo, make Saint Louis by herself
Git to Cairo, find her old friend Jeff
gwine to pin herself, right there, to his side If she flag his train, she sho' can ride
And she sang
Got dem Saint Louis Blues jes as blue as ah can be
Dat man got a heart lak a rock cast into de sea
Or else he wouldn't have gone so far from me
Doggone it!
I loves day man lak a schoolboy loves his pie
Lak a Kentucky Col'nel loves his mint an' rye
I'll love ma baby till the day ah die
Now a black-headed gal makes a freight train jump the track
Said a black-headed gal makes a freight train jump the track
But a long tall gal makes a preacher ball the jack
Lawd, a blonde-headed woman make a good man leave the town
I said a blonde-headed woman make a good man leave the town
Oh, my love is just around the corner
Any cozy little corner
Love is just around the corner
When I'm around you
And I'm a sentimental mourner
And I couldn't be forlorner
When you keep me in the corner
Just waiting for you
Now Venus de Milo was noted for her charm
But strictly between us
You're cuter than Venus
And what's more, you've got arms
So let's go cuddle in a corner
Any cozy little corner
Love is just around the corner
When I'm around you
Now Venus de Milo was noted for her charm
But strictly between us
You're cuter than Venus
And what's more, you've got arms
So let's go, cuddle in a corner
Any cozy little corner
Love is just around the corner
When I'm around you
EVERYTHING I HAVE IS YOURS
Verse:
The more I'm with you,
The more I can see;
My love is yours alone.
You came and captured
A heart that was free;
Now there's nothing I can call my own.
Everything I have is yours; you're part of me.
Everything I have is yours, my destiny.
I would gladly give the sun to you
If the sun were only mine.
I would gladly give the earth to you
And the stars that shine.
*Everything that I possess, I offer you,
That my dream of happiness come true.
I'd be happy just to spend my life,
Waiting at your beck and call.
Everything I have is yours,
My life, my all.
(Instrumental interlude and pick up at *.)
Everything that I possess, I offer you,
That my dream of happiness come true.
I'd be happy just to spend my life,
Waiting at your beck and call.
Everything I have is yours,
Night and stars above that shine so bright
The myst'ry of their fading light
That shines upon our caravan
Sleep upon my shoulder as we creep
Across the sand so I may keep
This mem'ry of our caravan
This is so exciting, you are so inviting
Resting in my arms
As I thrill to the magic charms
Of you beside me here, beneath the blue
My dream of love is coming true
Within our desert caravan
Night, night, night, night and stars above that shine so bright
The myst'ry of their fading light
That shines upon our caravan
Sleep upon my shoulders as we creep
Across the sand so I may keep
This mem'ry of our caravan
This is so exciting, you are so inviting
Resting in my arms
As I thrill to the magic charms
Of you beside me here, beneath the blue
My dream of love is coming true
Within our desert caravan
You beside me here, beneath the blue
My dream of love is coming true
BewilderedBewildered, lost in a dream
In the love I need why did we part
Bewildered, has love, has love died dear
Wishing your heart could feel
Whta`s in my heart
Must I have sleepless night
And endless days
Oh love why did you keep my soul
Without a spark I`m in the dark
Bewilderdd, I need your, I need your I need your guiding hand
I`ll never, no I`ll never understand
How you can love me, how you can love me
How you can love me, how you can love me
Because you're mine
The brightest star I see
Looks down, my love, and envies me
Because you're mine, because you're mine
Because you're mine
The breeze that hurries by
Becomes a melody and why?
Because you're mine, because you're mine
I only know for as long as I may live
I'll only live for the kiss that you alone may give me
And when we kiss
That isn't thunder, dear
It's only my poor heart you hear and its applause
Because you're mine
I only know for as long as I may live
I'll only live for the kiss that you alone may give me
And when we kiss
That isn't thunder, dear
It's only my poor heart you hear and its applause
Maybe I can't live to love you
As long as I want to
Life isn't long enough, baby
But I can love you as long as I live
And maybe I can't give you diamonds
And things like I want to
But I can promise you, baby
I'm gonna want to as long as I live
Well, I never cared, now I'm scared
I won't live long enough
That's why I wear my rubbers when it rains
And eat an apple everyday, see the doctor anyway
And what if I can't live to love you
As long as I want to
Long as I promise you, baby
I'm gonna want to as long as I live
Maybe I can't live to love you
As long as I want to
Life just isn't long enough, baby
But I'm gonna love you as long as I live
And maybe I can't give you diamonds
And things like I want to
But I can promise you, baby
I'm gonna want to as long as I live
Well, I never cared, now I'm scared
I won't live long enough
That's why I wear my rubbers when it rains
And eat an apple every day, see the doctor anyway
What if I can't live to love you
As long as I want to
Long as I promise you, baby
I'm gonna love you as long I live
I'm gonna love you, love you
Love you long as I live
Just long as I live
Love you as long as I live
Yeah, I'm gonna love you, love you, love you long as I live
I'm gonna love you, love you, I'm gonna love you
I was a fool who never knew
The ways of love
I was a fool who never knew
The ways of love
Now I tell everyone I meet
Then never was a love
Without a moment of
The bitter with the sweet
And when I tell them all
The that we knew then
When all the world lay at our feet
They know I've tasted love
And craved it's wine again
The bitter with the sweet
Sometimes the young in love
Think everything must go their way
And then the young in love
Say things they never
Really mean to say
Your memory haunts me
From the moment I awake
Until I cry myself to sleep
If you were only mine again
I'd glady take the bitter with the sweet
Sometimes the young in love
Think everything must go their way
And then the young in love
Say things they never
Really mean to say
Your memory haunts me
From the moment I awake
Until I cry myself to sleep
If you were only mine again
I'd glady take the bitter with the sweet
