Once there was a way
once there was a time
when evrything was in its place and simply fine.
When no one bothered counting all the tears one cried in vain
For in the morning
more than likely one would shine again
Take me high
love
Take me high
Take me back to where I've been
Take me high
love
Let me fly-y love
In the skyways I once knew
Take me back to the days
when I was truly never alone
Take me high
love
Take me home.
Once there was a hill
once there was a tree
once there was a bird
who spread its wings and flew
To places we imagine so much brighter than our own
Yet when the summer sun and returned our feathered friends
came home.
Take me high
love
. . .
Take me high
love
. . .
Take me high
love
Take me home.
Take me high
love
We're all going on a summer holiday.No more working for a week or two.Fun and laughter on a summer holiday.No more worries for me and you.For a week or two.

Everybody has a summer holiday
Doing things they always wanted to.So we're going on a summer holiday
To make our dreams come true
I like small speakers
I like tall speakers
If they've music they're wired for sound.
Walking about with a head full of music
Cassette in my pocket and I'm gonna use it
Stereo - out in the street
you know.
Into the car
go to work
and I'm cruising
I never think that I'll blow all my fuses.
Traffic flows into the breakfast show.
Power from the needle to the plastic
AM FM - I feel so ecstatic now.
It's music I found and I'm wired for sound.
I was small boy who don't like his toys.
I could not wait to get wired for sound.
I met a girl and she told me she loved me.
I said you love me
than love means you must like
What I like - my music is dynamite.
She said - I'm not a girl you can put on at a standby
I am a girl who demands that her love is amplified -
Switching to overdrive.
Power fram the needle to the plastic
. . .
Power from the needle to the plastic
. . .
I like small speakers
I like tall speakers
. . .
I like small speakers
Used to think that life was sweet
Used to think we were so complete
I can’t believe you’d throw it away
Used to feel we had it made
Used to feel we could sail away
Can you imagine how I feel today?
Well, it seems a long time ago
You were the lonely one
Now it comes to letting go
You are the only one
Do you know what you’ve done?
It’s so funny how we don’t talk anymore
It’s so funny why we don’t talk anymore
But it ain’t losing sleep
And I ain’t counting sheep.
It’s so funny how we don’t talk anymore.
Oh, we don’t talk.
Well, it really doesn’t matter to me
I guess your leaving was meant to be
It’s down to you now you wanna be free
Well, I hope you know which way to go
You’re on your own again
Don’t come cryin’ to me
When you’re the lonely one
Remember what you’ve done.
It’s so funny how we don’t talk anymore
It’s so funny why we don’t talk anymore
But it ain’t losing sleep
And I ain’t counting sheep.
It’s so funny how we don’t talk anymore.
The young ones
darling where the young ones
and the young ones
shouldn't be afraid
To live low while the flame is strong
'cause may not be the very young ones very long
Tomorrow
why wait until tomorrow
'cause tomorrow sometimes never comes
So love me there's a song to be sung
and the best time is to sing it while we're young
Once in every lifetime
comes the love like this
Oh I need you
and you need me
oh my darling
can't you see?
The young dreams should be dreams together
and the young hearts shouldn't be afraid
And some day
when the years have flown
darling then we'll teach the young ones of our own
solo
Once in every lifetime...
Oh, love is the key
Love is the answer

Love is the key that opens up a new way
Love is the answer we've been searching for
Open your heart if you're looking for a miracle

Oh, love is the key that opens up a new way
And love is the answer we've been searching for
So open your heart if you're looking for a miracle

Our Father who art in Heaven
Hallowed be thy name
Thy Kingdom come thy will be done on earth as in heaven
Give us to thee our daily bread
And forgive our sins

But deliver us from evil
For thine is the kingdom the power and the glory
Lead us not to the time of trial
Keep us from evil
For thine is the kingdom the power and the glory

In every tribe and tongue
Let every hearts desire be joined
To see the kingdom come
Let every hope and every dream
Be born in love again
Let all the world sing with one voice
Let the people say amen
Amen Amen Amen
Imaging a still summer's day.When nothing is moving.Least Of All Me.I lay on my back in the hay.The warm sun was soothing.It made me feel good.The day I met Marie.
The Sound of her whisper hello.Came tiptoing softly into my head.I opened my eyes kinda slow.And there she was smiling.It made me feel good.The day I met Marie.
With the laughing eyes.She'd toss her hair and tantalize.She came to touch me then she's gone
Just like a summer breeze.
I remember her kiss
So soft on my brow
And the way that she said
Baby go to sleep now
Baby go to sleep now
I woke with the chill in the air
The warm sun no longer hung in the sky
I reached out but she was not there
She'd gone where she came from
But I still feel good
To think i've known Marie
With the laughing eyes
She'd toss her hair and tantalize
She came to touch me then she's gone
Chestnuts roasting on a open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed like Eskimos
Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight
They know that Santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly
And so, I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety two
Altho's it's been said many times many ways
Merry Christmas to you
They know that Santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly
And so, I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety two
Altho's it's been said many times many ways
Eight O'clock and it's way past time
Feelin' good, I'm gonna make it tonight
It's so good when you feel this right
Out here underneath the spotlight
I'm not lonely, not lonely, not lonely
'Cause I'm doing it right
You see I put my heart in his hand, I'm a son of thunder
Underneath the spotlight
So many fall at the break of day
But I'm a winner come what may
'Cause it matters 'bout the way you choose
Choose him and you just can't lose
It's not lonely, not lonely, not lonely
When you're doin' it right
Why don't you put your heart in his hand, be a son of thunder
Underneath the spotlight
Put yourself in my place, it would be a disgrace
Left with egg all over your face
Would you come back so soon if I sang out of tune
I could be howlin' at the moon
You can see me tonight standing under the light
And I'll be singing a song that's true
Maybe someday you'll find that you're no longer blind
And the light will sing for you
Twelve O'clock and I'm on my way
Another town, it's another day
Got a message that you just can't buy
I've got to tell it and that is why
I'm not lonely, not lonely, not lonely
'Cause I'm doing it right
You see I put my heart in his hand, I'm a son of thunder
Some people they tease one another
Take pride in themselves keeping the other one down
Well
I'm not like that at all!
Some people they hurt one another
They love to see hurt in the other one's eyes
Well
I'm not like that at all.
Some people are born for each other
They love to walk holding the other one's hand
They always understand!
Some people cry
some people know why.
Some people they use one another so aimlessly
Not like lovers do
- well
I'm not like that at all!
Some people they long for each other
They love to talk holding the other one's hand -
They always understand!
Some people cry
some people know why.
With a word unspoken
with a voice unheard
When a word is broken by a tender word.
When a heart is moved
when a heart is thrown
The silence tells you you're not alone.
Some people are born for each other
They love to walk holding the other one.
Some people are born for each other
They love to walk holding the other one.
Some people are born for each other
They love to walk holding the other one.
Holding the other one
The weather man, he looks confused
Shakes his fist at the sky like you used to do
But you don't remember things like that, do you?
The balance was uneven but I'm breaking through
Slow rivers run cold
Shallow waters never sank so low
I thought I'd drown and you'd never know
You're a slow river and you run so cold
The winter here don't believe in God
The bitter wind just bites through me like a wild dog
I still see in your eyes tonight like headlights through the fog
But one foot in your door, oh that's all I ever got
Slow rivers run cold
Shallow waters never sank so low
I thought I'd drown and you'd never know
You're a slow river and you run so cold
Chances are you'll reappear
Swim my way in a flood of tears
No place to hide your conscience
So you're a sinking ship with no place to go
Slow rivers run cold
Shallow waters never sank so low
I thought I'd drown and you'd never know
As I look around me
I see the world in a different light
Everything is changing
And it happened one night
Changing for the better
And it starts with you and me
So well sing our song together and forever
We'll be free
Sing a song of freedom
People together, everybody sing
Sing a song of freedom each and everyman
People come together all across the land
If you're looking for an answer
It's very close hand
Just take a look around you
And then you'll understand
Clap your hands together
And let me hear the sound
It's the time for liberation
I peeked in to say goodnight
When I heard my child in prayer
"And for me some scarlet ribbons
Scarlet ribbons for my hair"
All the stores were closed and shuttered
All the streets were dark and bare
In our town no scarlet ribbons
Not one ribbon for her hair
Through the night my heart was aching
Just before the dawn was breaking
I peeked in and on her bed, in gay profusion lying there
Lovely ribbons, scarlet ribbons
Scarlet ribbons for her hair
If I live to be a hundred
I will never know from where
Came those lovely scarlet ribbons
Scarlet ribbons for her hair
Scarlet ribbons, there's magic in the air
Lately all you can feel is the rain falling
Maybe you feel this world is to blame
you've been crying.
Only
only inside will you know
but still you wonder sometimes:
Where can
where can you go? - Can you go
can you go? -
Remember me
- oh
when you feel this way
And you need someone to lean on.
And if you're ever
- ever too far away
Remember me
- I am the one
- remember me
- I am the one.
Remember me
I am the one who sees in your eyes
Remember me
I am the one who sees in your eyes.
Remember me
- I am yqur guardian angel
and I'll never let you fall.
And if you'Fe ever
ever In fear of danger
Remember me
- I am the one
- remember me
- I am the one
Who will turn
turn all your darkness to light in the morning.
You'll learn when yov're too hard on yovrself yov can call me.
Remember me
- oh
when you feel this way
. . .
Remember me
I am the one who sees in your eyes
Remember me
I am the one who sees in your eyes.
I can see you
yeah!
Remember me
I am the one who sees in your eyes
Remember me
You're waking from a dream
You step outside
To find the world is changing
Under your feet.
Somewhere in the past
Is the world you once knew
Soon you'll find that freedom
Is not so sweet.
I can't imagine why you'd throw it all away
After everything I've said to you today.
When you turn around to tind there's no-one
Then you'll finally realise what you've done.
I gave you everything
(Everything I had)
Endlessly believing your love was true.
You will never know
Just how it hurt
To find that you were turning to someone new.
I know that we can't ever change -
What has been said -
But how can I believe our love is really dead?
When you turn around to find there's no-one
Then you'll finally realise what you've done.
In the night -
When there's no-one there at all.
In the night -
Do you hear somebody call?
You saw someone but you tell yourself you're wrong
You heard a voice but you know it must belong
To the night.
Just a shadow on the wall
Go swiftly
The flags and drums can hypnotise
When glory has faded the dream
Is worth more than the prize
A twisting turning flame
And a freedom burning bright
Knows all of the names
And all of the games
Of the yellow, black and white
We've gotta have faith
To work it out
Faith and hope
Without any doubt
Give us strength to make a start
Put a song in our hearts ...
We're never gonna break down these walls
And build a prison with a stone
'Cos you know what love is worth
We're gonna build a heaven on earth
We're running in the wheels of fortune
Turning water into wine
We're gonna take love and make it shine
We're gonna find peace in our time
Softly, softly
When there is lightning in the sky
When the rivers are rising and
Trouble rolls in on the tide
We'll keep on keeping on
'Til all the tears are dry
We'll weather the storm
Welcome the dawn
Of tomorrow you and I
We've gotta have faith
And get it fast
Faith and hope
And make it last
Give us strength
To reach the stars
Put a song in our hearts
We're never gonna break down these walls
And build a prison with a stone
'Cos you know what love is worth
We're gonna build a heaven on earth
We're running in the wheels of fortune
Turning water into wine
We're gonna take love and make it shine
We're gonna find peace in our time
We're raisin' the dust
It's heaven or bust
And we'll see this dream come true
We're gonna have faith (faith)
The road will be long
But there's hope (hope)
To carry us on
We'll have strength (strength)
We'll never go wrong
With this song in our hearts
We're never gonna break down these walls
And build a prison with a stone
'Cos you know what love is worth
We're gonna build a heaven on earth
We're running in the wheels of fortune
Turning water into wine
We're gonna take love and make it shine
We're gonna find peace in our time
At the sign (sign)
Of the dove
Is gonna shine (shine)
On a wing
And a prayer
We'll be fine
Fine
Fine
We're never gonna break down these walls
And build a prison with a stone
'Cos you know what love is worth
We're gonna build a heaven on earth
We're running in the wheels of fortune
Turning water into wine
We're gonna take love and make it shine
Someone else is in your arms tonight
While I?m all alone and blue
Someone else would kiss and hold you tight
Just the way I used to do
I used to be your love
And now I'm your used to be
Outsider, that's me
You?ll be dancing cheek to cheek with him
To our favorite melody
And the tender words you speak to him
Would be words you spoke to me
Once I was in your heart
Now some else holds the key
Outsider, that?s me
I want you so much
(So much)
I can look
(You can look)
But mustn?t touch
I keep waiting for the phone to ring
But I know it?s all in vain
When you left me you took everything
Just the memory and the pain
I used to be your love
And now I'm your used to be
Outsider, that's me
I think of this most every night
How hard it is to get it alright?
I'm lookin' here, I'm lookin' there
I see a heart broken pieces everywhere
Wouldn't you try, wouldn't you know?
Try so hard, still you let it all go
Too much trouble, too much pain
I think, I'm gonna have that luck again
What'll I do if you walk away?
What'll I do if you walk away?
Well, I haven't a chance
No, I haven't a chance
Once in a while I get this feelin'
Now and again, I'm all in a daze
Time after time, I ask myself this
Will you walk away?
Once in a while, I get this feelin'
Seems all day and night time too
I don't belong, I'm just passin' through
I guess you're right, I think too much
Still in all, I miss your touch
A crazy notion, a careless thought
I start to worry and time gets short
Well, think of this my dear young one
The time to act has just begun
What'll I do if you walk away?
What'll I do if you walk away?
Well, I haven't a chance
No, I haven't a chance
Once in a while I get this feelin'
Now and again, I'm all in a daze
Time after time, I ask myself this
Will you walk away?
Once in a while, I get this feelin'
Thinkin' of this every night
Once in a while I get this feelin'
Now and again, I'm all in a daze
Time after time, I ask myself this
Will you walk away?
Once in a while I get this feelin'
Now and again, I'm all in a daze
Time after time, I ask myself this
Will you walk away?
Once in a while, I get this feelin'
What'll I do if you walk away?
Once in a while, I get this feelin'
What'll I do if you walk away?
Time after time, I'm feelin' having that luck again
What'll I do if you walk away?
Once in a while, I get the feelin'
What'll I do if you walk away?
Time after time, I'm feelin' having that luck again
OCEAN DEEP CLIFF RICHARD
Love , can't you see I'm alone
Can't you give this fool a chance

A little kindness in the night

Ocean deep
Now , can't you hear when I call

Right from early days from the moment I was born
I would take my guitar in the early early mornin'
And go down to the fields and play
Sittin' down there in the long grass strummin'
I could see the people from miles around comin'
To hear me sing my music and play
Well that's been my kinda life
My kinda life, yes and I like it
Well that's been my kinda life
My kinda life, yes and I like it
Well that's been my kinda life yeah
And I wouldn't spend it anywhere
Other than sittin' down somewhere
Playin' away my days, yeah
Well we made it to the city just me and my guitar
That was where I found a freaky little bar
I sat there on the stage and play
Well up came a guy who said it wasn't plastic
He wanted me to sing away my life or something drastic
But all I wanna do is play
Well that's been my kinda life
My kinda life, yes and I like it
Well that's been my kinda life
My kinda life, yes and I like it
Well that's been my kinda life yeah
And I wouldn't spend it anywhere
Other than sittin' down somewhere
Playin' away my days, just playin'
Play it
Well fame and fortune I've let them pass me by
No one in the country could say I didn't try
To turn the people and to play
You can keep all the money and the places that go with it
'Cos all I want is freedom and no cash could ever get it
All I wanna do is play
Well that's been my kinda life
My kinda life, yes and I like it
Well that's been my kinda life
My kinda life, yes and I like it
That's been my kinda life yeah
And I wouldn't spend it anywhere
Other than sittin' down somewhere

Come on pretty baby, let's move it and groove it
Well, a shake a baby shake, ohh, honey please don't lose it
It's rhythm that gets your heart and soul
Let me tell you baby, it's called rock 'n' roll
They say, it's gonna die, ohh, honey bee, let's face it
They just don't know what's a goin' to replace it
Ballads and calypsos, they've got nothing on real
Country music that drives along
Come on honey, move it
Well, let's move
Well, move it
Come on pretty baby, let's move it and a groove it
Dance honey, dance baby, please, don't lose it
'Cos all over town there's a brand new beat
And it's hangin' in the air like the Mississippi heat
Fireflies in the night and bullfrogs croakin'
Well, here comes the train and boy, is she smokin'?
Headed out from New Orleans and clear to L.A.
Ya better get ready it's a brand new day
Honey, move it
Five days a week I'm just abiding my time
Fill in the hours till the weekend's mine
All day long I've got my radio on
Keeps me going till my work is done
Monday through to Friday
Nothing goes my way
Just working staying alive
Monday through to Sunday
There's only one day
Saturday is rock 'n' roll time
Work for the man just to get my pay
Too many hours in the working day
Dead on my feet but I need the cash
Roll on Saturday make it fast
Monday through to Friday
Nothing goes my way
Just working staying alive
Monday through to Sunday
There's only one day
Saturday is rock 'n' roll time
I pay my dues to the union man
Don't get too heavy, that's the way I am
I live for rock 'n' roll and Saturday night
I hear the music and I feel alright, feel alright
Monday through to Friday
Nothing goes my way
Just working staying alive
Monday through to Sunday
There's only one day
The child is a king
the caroller sing
The old is past
there's a new beginning.
Dreams of Santa
dreams of snow
Fingers numb
faces aglow
it's -
Christmas time
mistletoe and wine
Children singing Christian rhyme.
With logs on the fire and gifts on the tree
A time to rejoice in the good that we see.
A time for living
a time for believing
A time for trusting
no deceiving.
Love and laughter and joy ever after
Hours for the taking
just follow the master.
Christmas time
mistletoe and wine
Silent night
holy night -
It's a time for giving
a time for getting
A time for forgiving and for forgetting.
Christmas is love
Christmas is peace
A time for hating and fighting to cease.
Christmas time
mistletoe and wine
Christmas time
mistletoe and wine
Christmas time
mistletoe and wine
Marianne, must I live for only yesterday?
Now you've gone away, Marianne
Marianne, all I have is just a memory
Of what you mean to me, Marianne
Here am I without a love to my name
I shall be just following my lonely heart
Endlessly must I be calling your name
Telling you I am waiting
Won't you please come back again?
Marianne, must I wait until eternity?
Please come back to me, Marianne
Here am I without a love to my name
I shall be just following my lonely heart
Endlessly must I be calling your name
Telling you I am waiting
Won't you please come back again?
Marianne, must I wait until eternity?
Please come back to me, Marianne
I had a chance for glory
Ooh, oh wouldn't tell you no lies
Same end on another story
I, I could have prophesied
I, I'd lose the prize
I'm gonna raid the future
Ooh, oh and I wanna know why
Everything is so temporary
Ooh, those I'll let you know eyes
I, I should have realized
I'm no hero, I won't get the glory
I'm the one who's left behind
I'm no hero, no place in your story
I'm the man who's left behind
I must have been blind
Must have been
I needed understanding
Ooh, oh you didn't sympathies
Left me here, left without a warning
Oh, you left me paralyzed
I, I should have realized
I'm no hero, I won't get the glory
I'm the one who's left behind
I'm no hero, no place in your story
I'm the man who's left behind
I must have been blind
Must have been, oh, so blind ahh, blind
I'm no hero, I won't get the glory
I'm the one who's left behind
I'm no hero, no place in your story
I'm the man who's left behind
I must have been blind, yeah
Must have been blind
Ooh, just must have been blind
I must have been blind
Ooh, just must have been
Just must have been blind
I must have been blind, can't see
Must have been blind
Just must have been blind
Ooh just must have been
Tonight there's a magic that I can't explain
Tune up and start the show all set now ready to go
This band's gonna really rock tonight
Steppin' out upon the stage, under those lights again
We're gonna shake the place tonight
They gotta new song high in the charts you know
You must have heard them play it on the radio
When that flat top starts that picking
Hear the bass drum start that kicking
The joint is really jumpin' now
Ooh, mama it's so exiting to feel
That tension rising when they turn the house lights down
It's a strange kinda magic that never seems to age
Makin' history, makin' history
Adding a new leaf to the story that is rock and roll
Makin' history, makin' history
Playing a new beat to the glory
That is rock and roll, rock on
They gotta new song, high in the charts you know
You must have heard them play it on the radio
Hear the start and the Jumbo Gibson
You don't know what you're missing if you're not
Painting the town tonight
Ooh mama it's so exiting to feel
That tension rising when they turn the house lights down
Makin' history, makin' history
Adding a new leaf to the story that is rock'n'roll
Makin' history, makin' history
Playing a new beat to the glory
That is rock and roll
Makin' history, makin' history
Adding a new leaf to the story that is rock and roll
Makin' history, makin' history
Adding a new leaf to the story that is rock and roll
Mama, it's so exiting, oh, oh

When I was just a little baby
I didn't have many toys
But my momma used to say son, you got
more than other boys
Now you may not be good looking and you may not be too rich
But you'll never ever be alone
'cos you've got lucky lips
Lucky lips are always kissing
Lucky lips are never blue
Lucky lips will always find a pair of lips so true
I don't need a four leaf clover
Rabbit's foot or good luck charm
With lucky lips you'll always have a baby
Lucille, you don't do your daddy's will
Lucille, you don't do your daddy's will
There ain't nothin' to ya, but I love you still
Lucille, please come back where you belong
Lucille, please come back where you belong
I'm beggin' to you baby, please don't leave me alone
I woke up this mornin', Lucille was not in sight
Asked her friends about her, all their lips were tight
Lucille, please come back where you belong
I'm beggin' to you baby, please don't leave me alone, oh
Lucille, you don't do your daddy's will
Lucille, you don't do your daddy's will
Your love is like a prison wall
And it's getting higher
I get so far and then I fall
I can't get through the wire
Oh, oh, oh, I'm locked inside your prison
Oh, oh, oh, I'm locked inside your prison
It's as though I'm doing time
And you won't free me
Let the punishment befit the crime
And say, you need me
Oh, oh, oh, I'm locked inside your prison
Oh, oh, oh, I'm locked inside your prison
Save me, save me, can't you see I'm innocent
Turn the key that will set me free
Please let it end, oh, let it end
Oh, oh, oh, I'm locked inside your prison
Oh, oh, oh, I'm locked inside your prison
Save me, save me, can't you see I'm innocent
Turn the key that will set me free
Please let it end, won't you let it end
I'll dig a tunnel to your heart
Let me remind you
Even gonna tear the walls apart
Until I find you
Oh, oh, oh, I'm locked inside your prison
Got myself a cryin', talkin'
Sleepin', walkin', livin' doll
Gotta do my best to please her
Just 'cos she's a livin' doll
Got a rovin' eye
And that is why, she satisfies my soul
Got the one and only, walkin', talkin', livin' doll
Take a look at her hair, it's real
And if you don't believe what I say, just feel
I'm gonna lock her up in a trunk
So, no big hunk can steal her away from me
Got myself a cryin', talkin'
Sleepin', walkin', livin' doll
Gotta do my best to please her
Just 'cos she's a livin' doll
Got a rovin' eye
And that is why she satisfies my soul
Got the one and only, walkin', talkin', livin' doll
Take a look at her hair, it's real
And if you don't believe what I say, just feel
I'm gonna lock her up in a trunk
So no big hunk can steal her away from me
Got myself a cryin', talkin'
Sleepin', walkin', livin' doll
Gotta do my best to please her
Just 'cos she's a livin' doll
Got a rovin' eye
And that is why, she satisfies my soul
Makin' our moves
turnin' the wheel
'kying to hide the things we feel
Playin' the game
passin' the blame.
It isn't enough to pretend to make out
Our hearts are hard - in our hands we hold all the cards.
It has to be you
it has to be me
It has to be everyone together.
It has to be you
it has to be me
We're all trying to make it better.
It has to be you and it has to be me
We're so blind that we can't see
That it has to be you
it has to be me
it has to be me.
Isn't it sad
isn't it strange
we say we need to re-arrange
But never ourselves always somebody else.
Another defence
another excuse
Pointing the finger where we choose
We just don't believe it's ourselves we deceive.
It has to be you
it has to be me
. . .
That it has to be you
it has to be me
it's got to be me.
See how we live
each to his own
everyone scared to be alone
Still we go on as though nothing was wrong.
It has to be you
it has to be me
. . .
That it has to be you
it has to be me
it's got to be me.
It's gonna get better
we've got to get together
It has to be you and it has to be me.
It's gonna get better
weire got to get together
No one on earth
Means more to me
Your painted pictures
Are the way that the world should be
Don't ever change it
I don't wanna live in this world without you
Oh no
I can't explain, I can't define
What you do to me, but my senses are so alive
You tell your story
And it's all that I ever believe
Portraits and poetry
Are frozen forms of perfection
But they don't live and breathe
When my heart's in need they don't answer me
You, ooh, you are
You're a human work of art
Walking, talking inspiration
You, ooh, you are
You're a human work of art
You make me love, you make me care
You give me freedom
I don't need when I know you're there
My search is over
I've got all of the riches that money don't buy
Oh no
Your words are poetry
And your face is more than perfection
The way I watch you move it only goes to prove
In everything to do
You, ooh, you are
You're a human work of art
Walking, talking inspiration
You, ooh, you are
You're a human work of art
You're my mission
You're my goal
Ooh you liberate my soul
There's no illusion, that your touch is gold
Portraits and poetry
Are frozen forms of perfection
The way I watch you move it only goes to prove
In everything you do
You, ooh, you are
You're a human work of art
Walking, talking new sensation
You, ooh, you are
You're a human work of art
Ready, steady, gonna meet you on the ballroom floor
Brother Eddie quit your banging on my bathroom door
After shaving, yeah, and after three
I'm after having me some fun you see
I'm getting ready for the night to come
And here I come
I'm just a hot shot hitting town
(Have a little fun)
Just a hot shot getting down
(Ready, steady, run)
I'm just a hot shot looking around
(Loving on the run)
I'm having fun
Get the recognition each and every place I go
Fashion leader in the Cuban heel and pointed toe
My Italian suit is pressed and clean
I'm the Latin lover of the local scene
I'm getting ready for the night to come
I'm just a hot shot hitting town
(Have a little fun)
Just a hot shot getting down
(Ready, steady, run)
I'm just a hot shot looking around
(Loving on the run)
I'm having fun
A faded picture on the mantle shelf
My older brother looks like myself
Remember Donny dated Susie
And Susie rated Johnny
Johnny's into Susie
But Susie's into Ronnie
Ronnie waits for Louie
But Louie's singing Louie-Lou-i
I'm just a hot shot hitting town
(Have a little fun)
Just a hot shot getting down
(Ready, steady, run)
I'm just a hot shot looking around
(Loving on the run)
Seems to me that you're always near
Close enough so I know when you're here
And just when I think I've got to know you
You disappear
And so I walk along building all my dreams
I've every hope as I plan all my schemes
And just when I think I've found the right one
You disappear
But still I'm here waiting for you
(Here)
I'm here still holding on
(Here)
I'm here waiting for you, baby
(Here)
(Here)
But it won't be too long
'Cause I'm planning a song that will tell you
Oh, why I'm here
I've even wished on a falling star
I've carried moonbeams home in a jar
Only one thing wrong, you're where you belong
And that's too far
If only there was some way of reaching you
Holding you 'cause I'm so doggone blue
Only one thing I really wanna do
Is sing to you
That's why I'm here waiting for you
(Here)
I'm here still holding on
(Here)
I'm here waiting, baby
(Here)
(Here)
But it won't be too long
'Cause I'm planning a song that will tell you
Oh, why I'm
(Here)
Here, I'm waiting for you, baby
(Here)
Here, and I'm still holding on
I'm planning a song that will tell you
Why I'm here
(Oh, wanna tell you now)
Oh, gotta tell you, tell you, tell you
(Oh, wanna tell you now)
Gotta tell you, tell you it's true that I'm blue, doggone it
(Oh, wanna tell you now)
I'm here and I'm blue
(Oh, wanna tell you now)
Gotta tell you now, gotta tell you now
That I'm here and it's true and I'm blue
(Oh, wanna tell you now)
Gotta tell you now, gotta keep on telling you I'm blue
(Oh, wanna tell you now)
She wears her hair real wild
Her nails are perfectly filed
Her lips painted deep jungle red
Her best color is black
And the clothes on her back
Show she's a woman with style
She wears satin and lace with impeccable taste
She'll tell you it runs in her blood
In a cloud of perfume she walks into the room
And it comes to a stop when she does
She's a heart user, no time for losers
She'll use you up and throw your love away
Heart user, a barracuda
She'll use you just don't get in her way
Oozing with charm got a girl on each arm
His eyes match his all over tan
And as he straightens his tie
Some beauty catches his eye
Brings out the best in the man
And her fresh young face makes his cold heart race
She's wearing that deadly perfume
You must admire the skill as he comes in for the kill
It's time to attack make his move
He's a heart user, no time for losers
He'll use you up and throw your love away
Heart user, a barracuda
He'll use you just don't get in his way
Where you been all my life
This is love at first sight
Could swear we've met someone before
She throws back her head
And she shamelessly says
You got real good taste tell me more
Then the lady in black thinks she's setting her trap
And he thinks she's playing his game
But anybody can tell they're just into themselves
They're two of a kind, they're the same
They're just heart users, no time for losers
They'll use you up and throw your love away
Heart users, they're barracuda
Congratulationsand celebrations
When I tell everyone that you're in love
with me
Congratulations
and jubilations
I want the world to know I'm happy as can be.
Who could believe that I could be happy and
contented
I used to think that happiness hadn't been
invented
But that was in the bad old days beforeI met you
When I let you
walk into my heart
Congratulations...
I was afraid that maybe you thought you
were above me
That I was only fooling myself to think you
loved me
But then tonight you said you couldn't live
without me
That round about me
You wanted to stay
Congratulations...Congratulationsand jubilations
I want the world to know I'm happy as can be
I want the world to know
This huddlin' in my coat, this gypsy bundle
In Liverpool, in squalor cast adrift
A dirty ragged mess of desperation
Though devil touched, I took as God's gift
No history, no owner, no rhyme, no reason
Nor explanation of his sorry state
And all the fire of the survivor
I couldn't leave it, I couldn't leave it to it's fate
What are we to do with it?
Dirty, ragged, coloured breed
Welcome it with open arms
Welcome one more mouth to feed
Could your own blood not provide you
With the gratitude you need?
We will call the boy, Heathcliff
And every man on earth conceals a secret
On which he feeds and yet tears him apart
And in this child so great that complication
Will surely destroy the strongest heart
And as you fall into the traps, he sets you
And as you're drawn to cross his reckless line
And as I watch you peer into his darkness
I pray you'll never search, I pray you'll never search for mine
What are we to do with it?
Dirty, ragged, coloured breed
Welcome it with open arms
Welcome one more mouth to feed
Could your own blood not provide you
With the gratitude you need
Gonna call him Heathcliff
What are we to do with it?
Dirty, ragged, coloured breed
Welcome it with open arms
Welcome one more mouth to feed
Call him Heathcliff
What are we to do with it?
Dirty, ragged, coloured breed
Welcome it with open arms
Searching for a green light
Looking for it all night
Using all my keen sight
Searching for a green light
From just this side of midnight
'Til dawn breaks into daylight
Keepin' myself out of sight
Searching for a green light
Well, I've heard this story before
But that doesn't stop me searching
It's been so long since you gave me a sign
A sign to stop my head turning
But all I have are just your old memories
But you know, baby, baby, that's fine
'Cause I'm spending all of my time
Searching for a green light
Looking for it all night
Using all my keen sight
Searching for a green light
From just this side of midnight
'Til dawn breaks into daylight
Keepin' myself out of sight
Searching for green light
Lookin' around
But all I have are your old memories
But you know, baby, baby, that's fine
'Cause I'm spending all of my time
Searching for a green light
Looking for it all night
Using all my keen sight
Searching for a green light
Searching for a green light
From just this of midnight
Searching for a green light
From just this of midnight
Searching for a green light
From just this of midnight, yeah yeah
Searching for a green light
From just this of midnight
Goodbye Sam hello Samantha
Goodbye Sam hello Samantha
I'm leavin' the gang
so don't come around for me on Sunday.
I want you to know
I'll have to skip the game on Monday.
Had a whole lot of fun
but now the time has come
I need the sweet touch of a woman's love.
Goodbye Sam hello Samantha
goodbye Joe hello Joanne.
suddenly need a new kind of company
someone to love me.
Goodbye Sam hello Samantha
goodbye Lou hello Louise.
From today there'll be new games
for me to play
so good luck and goodbye Sam.
Guys you ought-a get wise
there's more to the world than pool and fishin'.
easy ridin' is fine
but look around see what you're missin'.
girls are waitin' in line
and now has come the time
From a distance the world looks blue and green
And the snow capped mountains white
From a distance the ocean meets the stream
And the eagle takes to flight
From a distance, there is harmony
And it echoes through the land
It's the voice of hope, it's the voice of peace
It's the voice of every man
From a distance we all have enough
And no one is in need
And there are no guns, no bombs, and no disease
No hungry mouths to feed
From a distance we are instruments
Marching in a common band
Playing songs of hope, playing songs of peace
They're the songs of every man
God is watching us, God is watching us
God is watching us from a distance
From a distance you look like my friend
Even though we are at war
From a distance I just cannot comprehend
What all this fighting is for
From a distance there is harmony
And it echoes through the land
And it's the hope of hopes, it's the love of loves
It's the heart of every man
(Every man)
It's the hope of hopes, it's the love of loves
This is the song of every man
And God is watching us, God is watching us
God is watching us from a distance
Oh, God is watching us, God is watching
I took your name, you took my number
Look me up if you're in my town
You made a friend, be sure of that
Let me know if you're free, come down
You're making plans, things you'll do
Said I'll be someone I'm telling you
I'm gonna leave this town
Play me some rock 'n roll
I'm gonna find myself
I'm gonna free my soul
We took a walk out in the gray
You didn't speak but had much to say
Don't talk too loud walls have ears
Criticize and you'll disappear
A souvenir from where you've gone
A pair of jeans or some chewing gum
I'm gonna leave this town
Play me some rock 'n roll
I'm gonna find myself
I'm gonna free my soul
They built the wall until
They had something to hide
To keep me out or
Is it to keep you inside?
When the weather is fine
and the clouds have gone by
I go up in the air
waving people good-bye.
In my flying machine
I go up
I go down
I go round and round
round and round and round.
People on the ground
have gathered all around to admire
there's a feeling inside me
that gives me the urge to go higher.
But I know what goes up
will eventually fall
so I won't take no chances
while I'm having a ball
in my flying machine
I go up
I go down
I go round and round
and round and round.
I can race with the birds
I can fight with the wind
I can fly on my head
Man gratuliert mir und applaudiert mir,
Seit jenem Sonntag, da ich mich in Dich verliebt.
Man gratuliert mir und applaudiert mir,
Weil's Girls wie Dich nur alle Jubeljahre gibt.
Wie Du mir zärtlich sagst: "My Little Casanova!".
Der Flirt mit Jane und Pat und Mary and that's over.
Und auch im Club, da ä„sst Du Jack und Jonny stehen,
Dass sie sehen, Du gehörst zu mir.
Man gratuliert mir,...
Ich hatte Angst, Du liebst nur meinen tollen Wagen,
Und wollte Dir schon deshalb bye, bye Darling sagen.
Nun bleibst Du ewig für mein Leben unentbehrlich,
Dass ist ehrlich und ist keine Schau.
Man gratuliert mir,... (2x)
Whatever happened to the teenage romance?
Is it hidden in a tacky magazine?
Everybody's talking saying trash is neat
You think it's good fun but it's never that free
Who is the man of the moment?
Does his image stand ten feet tall?
Or is he just a cardboard hero
Staring down at you from your wall?
You can dream but you can't touch
You can dream but not too much
You can dream but you can't touch
You can dream but not too much
Friday night out on the town
It's a special date first time around
You read all about the story book romance
He stands there waiting and you want to hold his hand
Saturday you're broken down
Your heart is lying somewhere is it lost or found
You can dream but you can't touch
You can dream but not too much
You can dream but you can't touch
If this is love it's not enough
You can dream but you can't touch
You can dream but not too much
You can dream but you can't touch
You want a love that costs too much
You can dream but you can't touch
If this is love it's not enough
You can dream of tender touch
Me and my baby we're just going round
Not getting on luv, not putting it down
We had the kind of sweet affair
We both felt we needed
No psychic fusion, just a steady date
No grand illusions of the romantic fates
She looked for her, I looked for me
Don't know why we conceded
'Cos we were high, now we're low
Tell me why did we go
Falling in luv, falling in luv
Under pressure from family and friends
They seem to treasure a storybook end
One look at them I realize luv is real overrated
'Cos we were high, now we're low
Tell me why did we go
Looking around nowhere to go
Looking high but you're feelin' low
Ready or not you got to run when you can
Stealin' time just like everyman
Oh, oh, wanna let you know
You can't hide, you can't hide
Oh, oh, wanna tell you so
Well you tried, I think you lied
Everyman, you get lonely
Saw you crying just the other day
Everyman, it's not your money
You and I get to feel this way
We can feel the rain
We're like everyman
Spend your time, spend your money too
Spend your life if it gets you through
Look around, see you everywhere
Stealin' love, well it's just not fair
Oh, oh, wanna let you know
You can't hide, you can't hide
Oh, oh, wanna tell you so
Well you tried but I think you lied
Everyman, you get lonely
Saw you crying just the other day
Everyman, it's not your money
You and I get to feel this way
We can feel the rain
We're like everyman
Everyman, you get lonely
Saw you crying just the other day
Everyman, it's not your money
You and I get to feel this way
We can feel the rain
We're like everyman
See you everywhere I go
Looking high but you're feeling low
Look at the man in the corner
He's sitting all alone
His blankets are made out of cardboard
And his pillows are made out of stone
Every face tells a storcy
It never tells a lie
Every face tells a story
It never tells a lie
See the man walking on the water
See the light in his eyes
He came into the world with a message to tell
He came into the world to die
Every face tells a story
It never tells a lie
Every face tells a story
It never tells a lie
You're always telling stories
You're always telling me lies
You're always telling stories, why?
So think of yourself in the water
Seeing your days flashing by
It's too late to see what you wanted to be
You've spent all your time, you must die
Every face tells a story
It never tells a lie
Every face tells a story
It never tells a lie, oh
You're always telling stories
You're always telling me lies
You're always telling stories, why?
Why don't you step down
And make it work out right
I'm trying to get to you with my warning
Been here for nearly half the night
Spent all of his life in love with money
Never found love, he never got lucky, no
One hundred are the times he tried
And every time he lost, a part of him died
Love can be found, the people would tell
So he threw his heart
In the wishing well
Young Julie, the girl from the city
With eyes full of pain and a heart
Full of pity, yeah, and she said
"No use cryin' 'bout your living, dying
You're gotta make your peace
And and let your livin' just ease along
Let your livin' just ease along"
"You've got to give up livin' your life like a demon
Find your heart and the why, and the where
And the reason
Oh, oh, oh"
She took him up the mountain side
Where the air was clear and the water was wine
She loved him when the night was still
And the stars danced on the window sill
And over and over again
The lovers looked out from the mountain rim
There was no need to reach for the stars
You could catch them all night and keep them in jars
And she told him
"No use cryin' 'bout your living, dying
You're gotta make your peace
And and let your livin' just ease along
Let your livin' just ease along"
"You've got to give up livin' your life like a demon
Find your heart and the why, and the where
And the reason
Ease along, you've got to ease along"
Spent all his life in love with money, ease along
Never found love, never got lucky, ease along
With eyes full of pain and her heart full of pity, ease along
Out of time, out of luck
Thought I was just dreamin' then I woke up
You said it was over, the end of the line
I'm telling everybody I'm fine but I'm just
Climbing up Mount Everest
I swear it's like crawling from here to Memphis
Knocked senseless, like
Digging a hole to China to find
You don't love me no more
Night after night, I come home
Watch it on the news who else was overthrown
I don't understand it, as hard as I try
But I keep crossing over the great divide and it's like
Climbing up Mount Everest
I swear it's like crawling from here to Memphis
Knocked senseless, like
Digging a hole to China to find
You don't love me no more
Shine the light, ring the bell
I guess you don't love me, well
Well, I'll go on, I'll survive
I don't know how but I'll try
It's just like
Digging a hole to China to find
You don't love me no more
It's just like
Digging a hole to China to find
You don't love me no more
You don't love me no more
You don't love me no more
4 o'clock I've been walking all night
It's the time
I always think of you.
If I could only see though my eyes
Then you'd know just what I'm going through.
Here am I
I'm taking a chance
In running around with stars in my eyes.
Here am I
I looking for you
Wondering why do I feel so blue.
I'm dreamin' - dreamin' of me and you
Oh I'm dreamin' - dreamin' will see me through
Never lettin' chances pass me by
I'm gonna dream you right into my life
Yeah
dream you right into my life.
Dreamin' - dreamin' will see me through
Woman
you better believe
that I'm dreaming you into my life.
5 o'clock still walking around
I call you up
but you just bring me down
I guess you' say I'm gettin' nowhere
In my dreams you always come around.
Here am I
I'm taking a chance
Walking on air
flyin' so high
Here am I
facing the truth
There's no other way
I'll ever make you mine.
I'm dreamin' - dreamin' of me amd you
Dreamin' - dreamin' will see me through
Woman
you better believe
that I'll be dreaming you into my life
Woman
you got to believe me
woman
woman
you got to believe me
woman
I'll be dreaming you into my life
Oh Donna
Oh Donna
Oh Donna
Oh Donna
I had a girl Donna was her name
Since she left me well I've never been the same
'Cause I love my girl, Donna where can you be?
And now that you're gone I'm left here all alone
All by myself to wander and roam
How I love my girl, Donna where can you be?
Oh Donna, now that you're gone
I don't know what to do
All my love and all my kisses
Were for you, you just you
I had a girl Donna was her name
Since she's been gone I've never been the same
'Cause I love my girl, Donna where can you be?
Oh Donna, now that you're gone
I don't know what to do
All my love and all my kisses
Were for you
I had a girl Donna was her name
Since she's been gone, I've never been the same
I love my girl, Donna where, where can you be?
Oh Donna
Oh Donna
Oh Donna
Now, you say you belong to me
Do you ever take the time to ask me
If I want to be more involved in your life?
Its so sad, you don't realize what I can do for you
Its so sad, you wont spend more time alone with me
When you could be discovering my love
Can't you see just how much you're hurting me
When you say one thing and then do another
I forgive you but still you take me for granted
Its so sad, you don't realize what I can do for you
Its so sad, you wont spend more time alone with me
When you could be discovering my love
You know there are times
When nothing else takes my place
And those times mean more to you than anything else
But still you need more of me
And I need more of you, give me more of you
Its so sad, you don't realize what I can do for you
Its so sad, you wont spend more time alone with me
I've had nothing but bad luck
since the day I saw the cat at my door
So I came here to you sweet lady
answering your mystical call
Crystal ball on the table
showing the future the past
Same cat with them evil eyes
and I know it was a spell she'd cast
(chorus)
She`s just a devil woman
with evil on her mind
Beware the devil woman
she's gonna get you
She's just a devil woman
with evil on her mind
Beware the devil woman
she's gonna get you from behind
Give me the ring on your finger
let me see the lines of your hand
I can see me a tall dark stranger
giving you what you hadn't planned
I drank the potion she offered me
I found myself on the floor
Then I looked in those big green eyes
and I wondered what I came there for
(chorus)
From behind
Stay awake, look out
If you're out on a moonlit night
be careful of the neighborhood strays
Or a lady with long black hair
tryin' to win you with her feminine ways
Crystal ball on the table
showing the future the past
Same cat with them evil eyes
you'd better get out of there fast
You're my love
you're my angel
You're the girl of my dreams.
And I'd like to thank you for waitingpatiently.
Daddy's home
daddy's home to stay -
How I waited for this moment to be by your side.
Your best friend wrote and told me
You had teardrops in your eyes.
Daddy's home
daddy's home to stay.
It wasn't on a Sunday -
Monday and Tuesday went by.
It wasn't on a Tuesday afternoon
AII I could do was cry.
But I made a promise that you treasure
And I made it back home to you.
How I waited for this moment to be by your side
Your best friend wrote and told me
Your had teardrops in your eyes.
Daddy's home
daddy's home to stay.
What kind of love is this that leaves me feeling cold
You look right through me what you see - nobody knows
You're in a world all by yourself - needing no one else
Feeling so secure
You're on the road to nowhere and left your past behind
What's to become of me , should feelings be denied
Another time another place, would I be the same old face
For you to have around
There's no way in, there's no way out
I'm caught in the middle
Why must you leave my heart in doubt
Ooh ooh ooh
We had a one way love that flows from me to you
There's nothing more for me to lose
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
We're through with talking now we know that it's the end
We've played our foolish games and it's useless to pretend
It seems like only yesterday that love had come to stay
How could we be so blind
There's no way in there's no way out
I'm caught in the middle
Why must you leave my heart in doubt
We had a one way love that flows from me to you
There's nothing more for me to lose
- Guitar Solo -
I don't know where your heart is or what's inside your head
If this is love you said it, if this is love - forget it
If this is love then count me out
Count me out

All day I'm walking in a dream
I think about you constantly
Just like an ever flowing stream
Your memory haunts me constantly
Shadows fall and I try to drive you from my mind
So you're no longer near to me
But my heart sees you there with me
Every sunset you share with me
The rain that patterns through the tree
Reminds me of you constantly
Your name is whispered by the breeze
And love birds bring your song to me
Just as sure as the stars keeps burning in the sky
Your love will stay a flame in me
A flame that burns so bright
Not only through the night but constantly
Just as sure as each star keeps burning in the sky
Your love will stay a flame in me
A flame that burns so bright
Not only through the night but constantly
Though we may be far apart
The city in defeat
With no one left to beat
There's still a fading desire
To burn a naked light
Just to defy the night
Come on and call me a liar
A crumble tumble down
In fumble bumble town
Our lives a ruin
We reconstruct a bit
And pretty up a bit
We hardly know what we're doing
But me and my baby
Make the best of this world
She's like a diamond, innocent girl
We watch the sign of the times
Writing on the wall cities may fall
Back through the city fog
I was another cog
For the machinery there
Now the machines have gone
The silence hanging on
I sit, I stare
But me and my baby
Make the best of this world
She's like a diamond, innocent girl
We watch the sign of the times
Writing on the wall cities may fall
Come on and take your aim
I feel the mildest pain
Protecting something so rare
'Cos there's a gem or two
Inside the human zoo
If only you are aware
But me and my baby
Make the best of this world
She's like a diamond, innocent girl
We watch the sign of the times
C is for the candy trimmed around the Christmas tree
Capital C is for the candy trimmed around the Christmas tree
H is for the happiness with all the family
R is for the reindeer prancing by the window pane
I is for the icing on the cake as sweet as sugar cane
S is for the stocking hanging on the chimney wall
T is for the toys beneath the tree so tall
M is for the mistletoe where everyone is kissed
A is for the angels who make up the Christmas list
S is for the Santa who makes every kid his pet
Sorry to disturb you
But I was in the neighborhood
About a friend, I've her picture
Could you take a look?
Oh, I appreciate you're busy
And time is not your own
Yeah, maybe it would be better
If I telephoned
Carrie doesn't live here anymore
(Carrie)
Carrie used to room on the second floor
(On the second)
Sorry that she left no forwarding address
That was known to me
So, Carrie doesn't live here anymore
(Carrie)
You could always ask at the corner store
(Could ask)
Carrie had a date with her own kind of fate
It's plain to see
Another missing person
One of many we assume
The young wear their freedom
Like cheap perfume
(It's useless information)
Returning my call
(To help the situation)
They've nothing at all
You're just another message
On a pay phone wall
Carrie doesn't live here anymore
(Carrie)
Carrie used to room on the second floor
(On the second)
Sorry that she left no forwarding address
That was known to me, Carrie
Carrie doesn't live here anymore
(Carrie doesn't live, doesn't live here anymore)
Carrie used to room on the second floor
(On the second)
Sorry, Carrie left no forwarding address
I found my thrill on Blueberry Hill
On Blueberry Hill when I found you
The moon stood still on Blueberry Hill
And it lingered until my dreams came true
The wind in the willow played
Love's sweet melody
But all of those vows we made
Were never to be
Though we're apart, you're part of me still
For you were my thrill on Blueberry Hill
The wind in the willow played
Love's sweet melody
But all of those vows we made
Were never to be
Though, though we're apart, you're part of me still
Well, now that she is gone
You won't feel bad for long
For maybe just an hour or
Just a moment of the day
Then blue turns to grey
And try as you may
You just don't feel good
And you don't feel alright
And you know that
You must find her
Find her, find her
You think you'll have a ball
And you won't hurt at all
You'll find another girl
Or maybe more to pass the time away
Then blue turns grey
And try as you may
You just don't feel good
And you don't feel alright
And you know that
You must find her
Find her, find her
And you know that
You must find her
Find her, find her
She's not home when you call
So you then go to all
All the places where she likes to be
But she has gone away
Then blue turns to grey
And try as you may
You just don't feel good
And you don't feel alright
And you know
That you must find her
Find her, find her
Blue turns to grey
Blue turns to grey
Blue turns to grey
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
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
When I was young my father said
"Son, I have something to say"
And what he told me, I'll never forget
Until my dyin' day
He said, "Son, you are a bachelor boy
And that's the way to stay
Son, you be a bachelor boy
Until your dyin' day?
When I was sixteen I fell in love
With a girl as sweet as can be
But I remembered just in time
What my daddy said to me
He said, "Son you are a bachelor boy
And that's the way to stay
Son, you be a bachelor boy
Until your dyin' day?
As time goes by I probably will
Meet a girl and fall in love
Then I'll get married have a wife and a child
And they'll be my turtle doves
But until then I'll be a bachelor boy
And that's the way I'll stay
Happy to be a bachelor boy
Until my dyin' day
Yeah, I'll be a bachelor boy
And that's the way I'll stay
Happy to be a bachelor boy
The love in you and the love in me
That's all that matters
All the rest is just vanity
That time will shatter
The only treasure in the life we live
Is in the measure of the love we give
All that matters in the end will be
The love in you and the love in me
That's all that matters
All that matters
Every heart must change its shape
To fit the space that the lifetime makes
Some regrets and some mistakes
We touch happiness
But we can't hold her
Feelings come and disappear
I've known the laughter
I've cried those tears
I should know better after all these years
But I'm no wiser,
I'm just older
The love in you and the love in me
That's all that matters
All the rest is just vanity
That time will shatter
The only treasure in the life we live
Is in the measure of the love we give
All that matters in the end will be
The love in you and the love in me
Oh, oh
That's all that matters
All that matters
Love is the treasure
It's all the question of priority
We've got so much
That we just don't need
If it ain't got nothing
Then it's a luxury
We can learn to live without it
The love in you and the love in me
It's been so long
you say you've had fun
And you've been happy with the things you've don
Now you feel strange and a little unreal
You're just a little in love
just a little -
You're just a little in love
just a little.
Well
I can see what's happenin' to you
You feel alone but it's just not true.
And there's one thing you oughta know
I need you so.
I'm just a little in love
just a little -
I'm just a little in love
just a little.
You say you're willing to learn
You need a friend
a friend who will help you.
'Cos you're just a little in love
woh-yeah
A little in love
you are little in love
With someone - you're just like me
Like me you're just in love
woh-yeah
a little in love
You know some time you look somewhere
You're not alone but there's no-one there.
No-one to turn to
No-one to see
The way you're feelin' you're iust like me.
You're just a little in love
just a little -
You're just a little in love
just a little.
You say you're willing to learn
. . .
You're in love - woh-yeah -
A little in love
you are
A little in love with someone. You're just like me
