I'm gonna love you, like nobody's loved you
Come rain or come shine
High as a mountain, deep as a river
Come rain or come shine
I guess when you met me
It was just one of those things
But don't you ever bet me
'cause I'm gonna be true if you let me
You're gonna love me, like nobody's loved me
Come rain or come shine
We'll be happy together, unhappy together
Now won't that be just fine
The days may be cloudy or sunny
We're in or out of the money
But I'm with you always
Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace
Silent night, holy night!
Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories stream from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia!
Christ, the Saviour is born
Christ, the Saviour is born
Silent night, holy night
Son of God, love's pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth

Beautiful funk
from a hole in a horn
Burnin’ it up
Burnin’ it down
Burnin’ so hot melt
the snow on the ground
Better pass the cold duck round.
Eddie got the cold duck down.

There are those who fly from the highest heights
On the wings they carry
Searching for the high they can never find
Thinking love is blind, never mind
They'll never see the forest for the trees
'Til they turn to love
Crying through the eyes of my own disguise
Came to know the truth from the lies
So, I hope you'll understand how
I'm another kind of man now
All I want is just to stand
Closer to your love
Don't wanna climb a mountain, don't wanna swim a river
I wanna feel the fire, power and all I can dream of
Don't wanna climb a mountain, don't wanna swim a river
I wanna move in closer to your love
If you try to fly from the highest heights
On the wings you carry
Searching for the high of your own design
You may come to find, you been blind
So, I hope you'll understand how
I'm another kind of man now
All I want is just to stand
A little bit closer to your love
Don't wanna climb a mountain, don't wanna swim a river
I wanna feel the fire, power and all I can dream of
Don't wanna climb a mountain, don't wanna swim a river
I wanna move in closer to your love
Don't wanna climb a mountain, don't wanna swim a river
I wanna feel the fire, power and all I can dream of
Don't wanna climb a mountain, don't wanna swim a river
I wanna move in closer to your love
Closer, we could be so much closer
Don't wanna climb a mountain, don't wanna swim a river
I wanna feel the fire, power and all I can dream of
Don't wanna climb a mountain, don't wanna swim a river
To move in closer to your love
Don't wanna climb a mountain, don't wanna swim a river
I wanna feel the fire, power and all I can dream of
Don't wanna climb a mountain, don't wanna swim a river
I want to move in closer to your love
I, don't wanna climb a mountain, don't wanna swim a river
I wanna feel the fire, power and all I can dream of
Don't wanna climb a mountain, don't wanna swim a river
To move in closer to your love
Well I, don't wanna climb a mountain, don't wanna swim a river
I wanna feel the fire, power and all I can dream of
Don't wanna climb a mountain, don't wanna swim a river
Christmas time is here
Happiness and cheer
Fun for all that children call
Their favorite time of the year
Snowflakes in the air
Carols everywhere
Olden times and ancient rhymes
Of love and dreams to share
Sleigh bells in the air
Beauty everywhere
Yuletide by the fireside
And joyful memories there
Christmas time is here
We'll be drawing near
Oh, that we could always see
Such spirit through the year
I thought I'd drop a line just saying
How your song's been playing?
A pretty pitter patter it lightly played
The summer rain upon my face
Like polka dots and ballerinas
You floated right between us
With gossamer and feathers
You fanned the flames portraits caught in autumn rain
Around and round upside down
Are you just out for air
Or maybe somewhere hiding?
Playing 'round the corner
Somewhere I read a line
Just praising a book and a song
And how the world was brighter
When Betty came along
Around and round upside down
Are you just out for air
Or maybe somewhere hiding?
And playing 'round the corner
Somewhere I read a line
Just praising a book and a song
And how the world was brighter
When Betty came along
This world was brighter
Don’t talk about religion.
Someone says I gotta run.
Quicksilver wing express, compresses time.
They’ll put your keys and letters, in a capsule underground.
Your diaries and rosaries to find.
CHORUS:
Tell me, can you see it?
Would (won't) you run Johnny, run.
Tell them it’s easy (you’ll see it),
When your heart is light and young.
Stepchild to lead us,
The procession’s begun toward that bright white oasis in the sun.
Don’t talk about the weather.
Why the salmon didn’t run.
We’ll watch the children play, through filtered light.
The emerald green sequoias, just a statue made of bronze.
Like tapestries of dynasties gone by.
CHORUS X 2
Bright white oasis in the sun
Not like this without a single tear
We can't just walk away as
if it never happened
Our kind of love has never talked
in whispers
So if it's time to go, lets do it right
and go out loud
But not like this without a backward
glance
Did all our feeling die the moment
love was over
Well, not in me 'cause i still feel
you in my soul
So I will leave you tenderly
or bitterly
Killer love
Ive been watching you
Youve been watchin too
So sassy slinky that
I felt the heat at first sight
Is this burn for you all right
You smile and start to sway
Your satin slips away
This sweet obsession brings
A torch to my dreams all night
Such a killer, such a killer love
Such a killer, such a killer love
Killer diller, killer love, killer diller
Killer love (repeat)
I wanna wo...etc(repeat)
My doctors on the phone
Asks me if Im alone
Your heart is beating strong
But fever burns in your eyes
Im concerned for you tonight
So glad you thought about it
Sometimes we need to talk about it
If there's a need please shout it
I want there to be no doubt that
This ain't
No ordinary romance
And no emotional distress
By your side I could
Withstand any pressure
Oh, it is so hypnotic
I used to only dream about it
Now I don't have to doubt it
Unquestionably sure
Strong and secure that
This ain't
No ordinary romance
And no emotional distress
Never believed it could happen to me
Two people living their lives as one...
'cause
This ain't
No ordinary romance
And no emotional distress
I've got you and you've got me
And I know it's plain to see that
This ain't
No ordinary romance
Anybody tell me
Just what I’ve been doing wrong.
They say it’s not forever.
But forever’s less than too long.
Those doubts before
And tremblin’ at the door will fade.
When you learn to say, it’s…
CHORUS:
Never too late to fall in Love.
Just wait, you’ll find it.
Open the gate, you’re stronger now.
Just wait , just wait to fall in Love.
Many people tell me
There’s a mystery in this song.
When you hold your breath unending
Getting’ tired and weak you break down.
Hold on to you.
Your heart will know the truth one day.
When you learn to say, it’s…
CHORUS: X 1
Turnin’ ice cold night into day.
These are the words I’ve been learnin’ to say,
Never too late.
I've been afraid that I had missed the
Chance of a lifetime
And by the way
I've tumbled with romance, girl,
And I don't cry
But now I'm
Searching every star
(I go on)
Searching near and far
(every dawn)
'Til I find our one
Spirit flying high
Flying high
I'll never give it up,
Never gonna give it up
Even when this life is over
Never give it up
Never gonna give it up
Even when this life is over
Never give it up,
Never gonna give it up
Even when this life is over
I'll be content in time
I'm gonna be content in time
And so today, I think I'll take the
Chance of a lifetime
And by the way,
I'm falling for romance girl,
And I don't mind
How much I cry
I'm reaching for the sun
(angels sing)
Love has just begun
(who would think)
Two could turn to one
Spirit flying high
Flying high
Never gonna give it up...
I want to know the places that you go when you’re all alone.
And I want to see all the secrets that you keep when you’re not with me.
And I’ll open the treasures of love deep in my heart.
CHORUS:
And I promise I’ll hold you close to me.
I’ll write you a song with words so sweet
And I’ll sing to you the melody,
‘Til you Love me.
Tell me your dreams
And every wish that I might grant for thee.
Open your heart and let me fill you up with everything you need.
And we’ll walk step by step, you and me in harmony.
CHORUS X 1
Show me the key
And I’ll write a symphony for you and me.
Words can’t explain how much your love means to me.
She may be weary
Women do get weary
Wearing the same shabby dress
And when she's weary
Try a little tenderness
You know she's waiting
Just anticipating
Things she may never possess
While she's without them
Try a little tenderness
It's not just sentimental
She has her grief and care
And a word that's soft and gentle
Makes it easier to bear
You won't regret it
Women don't forget it
Love is their whole hapiness
It's all so easy
It's a little bit funny, this feeling inside
I'm not one of those, who can easily hide
I don't have much money, but boy if I did
I'd buy a big house where we both could live.
If I was a sculptor, but then again no,
Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show
I know it's not much, but it's the best I can do
My gift is my song and this one's for you.
And you can tell everybody, this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done,
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world.
I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well a few of the verses, well they've got me quite cross
But the sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song,
It's for people like you, that keep it turned on.
So excuse me forgetting, but these things I do
You see I've forgotten, if they're green, honey or they're blue
Anyway, the thing is, what I really mean
You don't see me when I'm
trying to do right
Maybe you can see me now
When I was walking,
patting my feet on the pavement
Really, truly trying to find a gig
Did you stand up and speak
out in my favor?
Cold desperation,
she's a devil in bed
Scratching till my bones are bare
Pill and needles are all I've left to savor
We were walking and
I told you of how my shoes
Of how my shoes were wearing thin
You took your surplus and
traded for a favor
Now I'm demented and I'm
burned unto a cinder
Forty hours buys a grocery
bag for trash
I took my pistol and I made
myself a sinner
Will this universe be merciful at last?
You don't see me.
You don't see me
I get so tired of trying to
attract your attention
It has occurred to me that
you don't see me
You should go ahead.
I'm a-gonna-go-ahead
I know you're going to ahead
You're going to do what
you're going to do
I know, see, I see you, I watch you
You take the money and run
You take groceries and run, too
Don't leave nothing left for me
You're running and hiding
and ducking and hiding
And running and hiding and
I can't find you nowhere
I'll beat your mama,
I'll beat your daddy
I'll go to jail,
it don't make no mothafugging
Difference what happens to me
Going to be there in my
own time, in my own way
Cause you don't see me,
you don't see me
Say jeans, say cha, cha, cha
And yo' jeans, say cha, cha, cha
Sweetie yo' jeans, say cha, cha, cha
Talkin' 'bout yo' jeans, say cha, cha, cha
Over now for football, baseball, Sunday afternoon TV
I know you don't need to ask me where I'll be, oh yes
But when you go out to play, I may have to slip away
I'm a 49er but nothin's finer than yo' jeans
Talkin' 'bout, 'bout yo' jeans, say cha, cha, cha
Newport, Bridgeport, Cincinnati, Brooklyn, Queens
Sweet mint julip afternoons in New Orleans
But when you do your sweet sashay, I'll be up and on my way
Fond of Carolina but nothin's finer than
Yo' jeans say, cha, cha, cha
Sweetie yo' jeans, cha, cha, cha
The cha, cha, cha
To yo' jeans, cha, cha, cha
Thanks to yo' jeans, say cha, cha, cha
Talkin' 'bout yo' jeans girl
Talkin' 'bout, talkin' 'bout yo' oh torn off jeans
And when I thought
my flame was out
You entered in
I look around
I feel the same as before
I'm on the ground
I'm dreaming away, but you know
I would trade all of
my daydreams for
some wings
A sparrow sings
The thrill was gone
But like the summer
The spring
Will bring the dawn
And I'll be singing your song
For a wondrous new change is
Taking me up to heaven
Your sweet love -
brighter than light -
Streaking like a starship -
Your sweet love -
brightens the night -
Gleaming down on our ship
Your sweet love -
making me realize
That heaven is right
here in your eyes
I look around
It's not the same as before
I'm on the ground
But now I'm singing your song
For this wondrous new change
Is taking me up to heaven
CHORUS:
(Instrumental and Voice)
And when I thought
my flame was out
You entered in
I thank the stars
But you know as often
I thank the things you are
And all I offer
Just longs for that wondrous
new change
That's taking me up to heaven
CHORUS:
CHORUS:
I found my lucky star
Was gleaming nightly
Your love in starlight
Come a little closer
Baby I don’t want a thing to block the view
Hey, I’m on a natural high
And I get this way each time I look at you
I’m on a cloud
Not coming down...
I’m a new man when I’m around you
Girl, anticipate
Each new day
'Cause I know
I'm gonna spend my time with you
Ooo, what you do to me baby
The little things you do keep me loving me you
Ooo, what you do to me baby
Everyday together just gets better
Lord, it's some kind of magic
That excites me 'bout the things you do and say
I just can't get enough
Seems I want you more with every passing day
I'm just a fool
When I'm with you
It doesn't matter where we are just hold me
Don't let go
I'll listen close
My heart is singing
A symphony of love, baby
Ooo, what you do to me baby
The little things you do keep me you
Ooo, what you do to me baby
Everyday together just gets better
Ooo, what you do to me baby
Ooo, what you do to me baby
Everyday together just gets better
Ooo, what you do to me baby
The little things you do keep me loving you
Ooo. what you do to me baby
Gonna spend my time lovin' you
Girl, I act a fool
When it's me and you
Baby, can't you see
What you do to me
You got me on cloud
And I’m not coming down
Baby don’t stop the magic
‘Cause you are my fantasy
Ooo, what you do to me baby
The little things you do keep me loving you
Ooo, you do baby
Everyday together just gets better
Got a lot
Lot of lovin‘ baby
You got my number
It's like a diamond ring it's a precious thing
And we never want to lose it
It's like a favorite song that we love to sing
Every time we hear the music
And we're in this love together
We got the kind that lasts forever
We're in this love together
And like berries on the vine it gets sweeter all the time
It's like a rainy night in candlelight
And, ooh it's so romantic
We got the whole thing working out so right
And, and it's just the way we planned it
Today we're in this love together
We got the kind that lasts forever
Don't you know that we're in this love together
And like berries on the vine it gets sweeter all the time
Don't you know we're in this love together
We got the kind that lasts forever
We're in this love together
We got a lot of time for love forever and ever
Don't you know we're in this love together
We got the kind that lasts forever
Tell you that we're in this love together
Why don't you find love that has broken the law
Don't you know that we're in this love together
We got the kind that brings to mind a favorite song
Don't you say that we're in this love together
We got the time that makes us all night long, hey hey
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the tree tops glisten
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all
Your Christmases be white
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the tree tops glisten
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases
May all your Christmases
May all your Christmases
May all your Christmases be white
I'm dreaming of a white
Christmas with you
Jingle Bells
Say lady well look at you baby
You ain't gettin' older
Just finer and finer
It's been so long my baby
So many lonely nights
I almost rang your line
To say could you still be mine
Hey, hey lady
I've never been quite the same
The same
And I go crazy, crazy, crazy
Whenever I hear your name
And say baby I guess you heard
I'm doin fine
I'm makin' lots of money now
Got stars for friends
But I, but I can still remember
When we had nothin'
Nothin but love to share
To share until the end of time
Hey, hey lady
I've never been quite the same
The same
And I go crazy, crazy, crazy
Billy Jones is a mover

days when hope loses him
he prays he can just hold out
and one day he will win.
Will he wait for the magic
no, not forever
just wait for the magic again
never look down , no no
don't surrender
just wait for the magic again.

and there's nothing there

well my friends feel it's their appointed duty
they keep trying to tell me all you want to do is use me
well my answer said all that use me stuff
is i wanna spread the news
that if it feels this good getting used
oh you just keep on using me
until you use me up
uh huh, until you use me up
well my brother, you know he sit me right down and he talked to me
well he told me, that i ought not let you just walk on me
and i'm sure he meant well
but when our talk was through
i just said now brother if you only knew
you'd wish that you were in my shoes
you just keep on using me
until you use me up
until you use me up
sometimes, it's true you really do abuse me
well you get me in a crowd of high class people
and then you act real rude to me
but oh baby, baby, baby, baby
when you love me i can't get enough
and i wanna spread the news
that if it feels this good getting used
oh you just keep on using me
until you use me up
until you use me up.
talking 'bout you using me
well it all depends on what you do
it ain't too bad the way you're using me
So you say that I have gone too far
That I really don't know who you are
And did you tell me that you've got to cool your feelings?
So did you say I've fallen overboard
Every danger sign I just ignored
That you never meant to put me out to sea
Ask me where I've been
Heaven knows I've sinned
Waiting in the wings and wasting time
I've been watching you
From the secret corners of your mind
Chorus:
Girl, I know the way to your heart
It's in the stars - you're destined to be my baby
Girl, I'll be so good to your heart
You'll wonder why you question to be my baby
I want to labor looking after you
I want to bless you when you say 'k-choo'
I want to touch your face and watch you while you're sleeping
And could you make a little one or two
And could you please make sure they look like you
And they could share in all the secrets we've been keeping
Have I gone too far?
Reaching for a star?
Heaven here on earth is what I crave
I don't know what to say
I get so carried away
To this dream I'll always be a slave
(Chorus 2x)
[Sax solo]
(Chorus)
[Scat solo]
So put your fears aside
??? open wide
I'm the one who knew your where and when
I'll be so good to you
I hope you'll ask me to
To take you there and take you back again
It's not the pale moon that excites me
That thrills and delights me, oh no
It's just the nearness of you
It isn't your sweet conversation
That brings this sensation, oh no
It's just the nearness of you
When you're in my arms
and I feel you so close to me
All my wildest dreams come true
It's you
I need no soft lights to enchant me
If you'll only grant me
The right to hold you ever so tight
I watch
The snow flakes fall
Against my window pane
And wonder if you
Are watching snow
Flakes too
I take a walk downtown
To where
You used to meet me
Theres joy everywhere
But all that's
Waiting there
Is just
A little Christmas tree
Lookin' sorta
Sad n' lonely just like me
Noone seems to care
They just went away
And left it standing there
All alone on Christmas Eve
I hear the Christmas bell
The happy people singing
The songs of good cheer
That only brings me tears
I sadly close my eyes
And say a little prayer
You'll be
Waiting there for me
I look but all I see
Is just
A little Christmas tree
Lookin sorta
Sad n' lonely just like me
Noone seems to care
They just went away
And left it standing there
All alone on Christmas eve
This is the season of love
But I'm as sad as I can be
Why did you have to leave me
Oh. little Christmas tree
Lookin' sorta
Sad n' lonely just like me
Noone seems to care
They just went away
And left it standing there
Chant:
We need a think tank I'm thinking

With tender smile, we bless a child
with love and light, and patron saint.
Don't let them cry, that we denied
tomorrow's child today.
Verse 2:
The hurt, the need, to heal, to feed
They linger near the marketplace.
Will we deny, or compromise
tomorrow's child today?

Mama loves a mambo, Mama Papa sway
La la la la la la la ley lu, La la lee lew-lay

As rivers roar, the eagles soar
this ancient lore of rightful place.
Do we ignore, or save them for
Tomorrow's child today?

Mama loves a mambo, Mama Papa sway

Won’t you stop and take a little time out with me, just take five;
Stop your busy day and take the time out to see I’m alive.
Though I`m going out of my way,
Just so I can pass by each day,
Not a single word do we say,
It`s a pantomime and not a play
Still I know our eyes often meet,
I feel tingles down to my feet,
when you smile that’s much too discrete,
sends me on my way.
Wouldn’t it be better not to be so polite, you could offer a light;
Start a little conversation now, it’s alright, just take five, just take five.
[Improvisation]
Though I`m going out of my way,
Just so I can pass by each day,
Not a single word do we say,
It`s a pantomime and not a play
Still I know our eyes often meet,
I feel tingles down to my feet,
when you smile that’s much too discrete,
sends me on my way.
Wouldn’t it be better not to be so polite, you could offer a light;
Yesterday, just a photograph of yesterday
And all its edges folded and the corners faded sepia brown
And yet it's all I have of our past love
A postscript to its ending
Brighter days, I can see such brighter days
When every song we sang is sung again
And now we know, we know this time it's for good
And we're lovers once again and you're near me
I can remember the rain in December
The leaves are brown on the ground
In Spain I did love and adore you
The nights filled with joy were our yesterdays
And tomorrow will bring you near me
I can recall my desire, every reverie is on fire
And I get a picture of all our yesterdays, yes, today
I can say, I get a kick every time
They play that, Spain, again
I can remember the rain in December
The leaves are brown on the ground
Our love was a Spanish fiesta
The bright lights and songs were our joy each day
And the nights were the heat of yearning
I can recall my desire, every reverie is on fire
And I get a picture of all our yesterdays, yes, today
I can say, I get a kick every time
I see you gaze at me
I see moments of history
Your eyes meet mine and they dance to the melody
And we live again as if dreaming
The sound of our hearts beat like castanets
And forever we'll know their meaning
I can recall my desire, every reverie is on fire
And I get a picture of all our yesterdays, yes, today
I can say, I get a kick every time
I see you gaze at me
You gaze at me, I see moments of history
Your eyes meet mine and they dance to the melody
And we live again as if dreaming
The sound of our hearts beat like castanets
And forever we'll know their meaning
I can recall my desire, every reverie is on fire
And I get a picture of all our yesterdays, yes, today
I can say, I get a kick every time
I see you gaze at me
You gaze at me, I see moments of history
Your eyes meet mine and they dance to the melody
And we live again as if dreaming
The sound of our hearts beat like castanets
And forever we'll know their meaning
I can remember the rain in December
The leaves are brown tumbling down
In Spain I did love and adore you
The nights filled with joy were our yesterdays
And tomorrow will bring you near me
I can recall my desire, every reverie is on fire
And I get a picture of all our yesterdays, yes, today
I can say, I get a kick and I'm here to say
Tell me the reason why you say
You wanna look around
Tell me what takes you far away
Leavin' me on the ground
All of the things you do and say
Turnin' me upside down
I can't go on and on this way
Stumblin' 'round and 'round
Do do do, so won't you won't you
Come on and say it
Don't you know you gotta love me
You gotta want me
Tell me what I should say or do
How do I catch your eye
I made a goddess out of you
Ready to do or die
Gathered a thousand stars for you
Took 'em right out of the sky
Tell me you dream about me too
Tell me a tender lie
Do do do, so won't you won't you
Come on and say it
Don't you know you gotta love me
You gotta want me
Well there's a sparrow without a wing
And there's a song with no one to sing
And there's a fool on the hill who thinks
He's doin' fine
You roam the world in your lonely flight
Singin' songs in the dead of night
And everything seems to be all right
But not inside
Woo ooh ooh ooh
So tell me that you won't hesitate
Betcha we make a rhyme
We've got take the hand of fate
While we are in our prime
Come on and help me syncopate
Let your heart beat like mine
This is an easy step to take
Easy to dance in time
Do do do, so won't you won't you
Come on and say it
Don't you know you gotta love me
You gotta want me
Well there's a sparrow without a wing
And there's a song with no one to sing
And there's a fool on the hill who thinks
He's doin' fine
You roam the world in your lonely flight
Singin' songs in the dead of night
And everything seems to be all right
But not inside
Woo ooh ooh ooh
Tell me the reason why you say
You wanna look around
Tell me what takes you far away
Leavin' me on the ground
Tell me what I should do or say
How do I catch your eye
Tell me that you won't hesitate
Betcha we make a rhyme
Do do do, so won't you won't you
Come on and say it
Don't you know you gotta love me
Did you say, I've got a lot to learn.
Well don't think, I'm trying not to learn.
Since this is the perfect spot to learn.
Teach me tonight.
Starting with, the abc of it.
Right down to, the xyz of it.
Help me solve the mystery of it.
Teach me tonight.
The sky's a blackboard, high above you.
If a shooting star goes by, I'll use that star
To write I love you, a thousand times across the sky.
One thing isn't very clear, my love.
Should the teacher stand so near, my love.
Graduation's almost here, my love.
Teach me tonight.
INTERLUDE
I'll use that star, To write I love you,

Graduation's almost here, my love.
So would you, teach me tonight.
I've lost all fear, my love.
Summertime
And the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high
Your daddy's rich
And your mamma's good lookin'
So hush little baby
Don't you cry
One of these mornings
You're going to rise up singing
Then you'll spread your wings
And you'll take to the sky
But till that morning
There's a'nothing can harm you
With daddy and mamma standing by
Summertime,
And the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high
Your daddy's rich
And your mamma's good lookin'
So hush little baby
I can recall those warm summer days
No decisions, child's play
Did they slip away?
Gone forever, gone forever
Lost to yesterday
From the beginning you've been
Always there my old friend
True until the end of time
As I walk down, streets full of amber leaves
I see nothing's really changed at all
We're just older now
Still together, still together
After all these years
And from the beginning you've been
Always there my old friend
True until the end of time
My old friend
From the beginning you've been
Always there my old friend
True until the end of time
Still together, after all these years
And from the beginning you've been
Always there my old friend
True until the end of time
My old friend
But from the beginning you've been
Always there my old friend
True until the end of time
My old friend
But from the beginning you've been
Always there my old friend
You've been true until the end of time
My old friend
From the beginning you've been
Always there my old friend
Careful baby
Careful darling
You got yourself
Into such a mess that
you can't get out
You made your own bed
So what the heck can you
complain about
You're seventeen but
You talk and you wiggle and walk like
you're twenty-four
Grown men weepin'
A ten point temperature
rise everywhere you go
And the fact is
BRIDGE:
You're so fine that you
fool the people
You're so fine that you're
foolin' me
You're so fine that you
fool the people
Ain't so fine when you
fool your own self baby
Look out
CHORUS:
Such a mess
It's a funny situation
Sassiness
Got you up a tree
Sticky Wicket
Must confess
It's an inside instigation
No distress
You can talk to me
Seven-thirty
Morning Mr. Price what a
day for school
Bright and early
Perfect little disguise for
the folks you fool
Midnight passion
Ain't no surprise to me what
you're comin' to
There's red light flashin'
Look out you're goin' too fast,
what you gonna do
BRIDGE
CHORUS:
Such a mess...
...no distress
You can change it baby
London bridge is fallin' frightful sound
You can hear me callin' here's your crown
In the game you make a circle just to turn around
Intro:
When you give love and never get love,
You'd better let love depart,
I know it's so and still I know,
I can't get you out'a my heart.
You made me leave my happy home,
You took my love and now you're gone,
Since I fell for you.
My life has been such misery and pain,
I guess I'll never be the same,
Since I fell for you.
Chorus:
Well, it's too bad and it's too sad,
That I'm in love with you.
Well, you love me and then you snub me,
But what can I do ..... I'm still in love with you.
I guess I'll never see the light,
I get these blues most every night,
Since I fell for you.
Chorus:
Well, its' too bad and it's too sad,
That I'm in love with you.
Well, you love me and then you snub me,
But what can I do ..... I'm still in love with you.
I guess I'll never see the light,
I get these blues most every night,
Since I fell for you.
Ending:
Since you love me ..... then you snub me,
I prayed you'd put the world above me,
And now I ... black and blue ... scoo - doo - doo - doo ...
Since I fell for you
Runnin' around like crazy
After our romance
Thinkin' about you baby
Have I still a chance
I know there's magic
Whenever you're around me
So much it makes me wanna sing
I'll use my imagination
In a novel way
To create a situation
One we both can play
I'll write the story
You'll be my inspiration
Just like two actors in a play
Chorus:
Let's pretend
We're in another world
Livin' a fantasy
Let's pretend
Just another boy and girl
Falling in love
Let's pretend
Babe we'll remember when
Maybe we'll start again
Let's pretend
What we had will never end
Ooh ooh aah
I'm jumpin' right in now baby
With my body and soul
Everyone thinks I'm crazy
But I love you so
I know there's magic
Whenever you're around me
So much it makes me wanna...
(Chorus)
Girl remember when
Do you remember when
Bring it back again
In all the love we made
I'm sure we saved some for
A rainy day
Some children see him
Lily white
The baby Jesus
Born this night
Some children see him
Lily white
With tresses soft
And fair
Some children see him
Bronzed and brown
The Lord of heav'n
To Earth come down
Some children see him
Bronzed and brown
With dark
And heavy hair
Some children see him
Almond-eyed
This savior whom
We kneel beside
Some children see him
Almond-eyed
With skin
Of yellow hue
Some children see him
Dark as they
Sweet mary's son
To whom we pray
Some children see him
Dark as they
And, ah
They love him, too
The children
In each diff'rent place
Will see
The baby Jesus' face
Like theirs
But bright
With heav'nly grace
And filled
With holy light
O lay aside
Each earthly thing
And with thy heart
As offering
Come worship now
The infant king
'Tis love
There's no greater crime
Than wastin' your life
On a boat goin' nowhere
When you came along
You made it safe
For love to survive
I trusted and dreamed
And you came like I knew you would
I've been 'round before
But this feels so good
I could not walk by
I knew that I'd found
What's at the end of the rainbow
There's no place on earth I'd rather be
Than stayin' right here with you
It's not about luck
I don't need to knock on wood, no no
Been 'round before
But this feels so good
Night after night
It's so hard to believe
That I wake up each day next to you
Time after time
In the cold mornin' light it's good to know
It's good to know that it's true
There's no greater sin
Than missin' your chance
But when it's starin' right at 'ya
That look in your eyes
Say everything and tells me I'm home
For once in my life
You know I don't feel misunderstood
Well I've been 'round before
Oh but this time you know it feels so sure
Been 'round before
But this feels so good
Been, been 'round before
This feels so good
You all sing
So good, so good, so good
So good, so good, this feels so good
This is what I mean
Exactly what I am talking about
This feels so good
So good, so good so good
So good, so good
This feels so good
So good, so good, so good
ENGLISH CHORUS:
She says it's me
I like it
She says it's we
I like it
She says that we
Should try it
More us more we
I buy it
And after all
She says it's
Her best of all
And does it
So why wonder
why question why
When she says
ENGLISH CHORUS
She says she's been to Corcovado
The Cote d'Azure and Monte Carlo
She says but when you think it all through
It don't compare to where we're going to
I've never been to Corcovado
But I've seen Milwaukee and Chicago
I'll go to Jupiter to be with her

but for crying out loud
darling, please save your love
Somewhere out there, past the rainbow
Beyond the moon and the stars we found love
Now it?s ours, my lady, a gift to cherish
Sent down from heaven above
And I, I?m so thankful, baby, that I?ve got you
And I?m so glad I don?t know why
I deserve you, baby, I won?t question it
I?ll just have faith, oh
I believe that we?ll never really figure out the mystery
That?s behind all of the joy we're feelin?
I can see that some things are beyond understanding
These are the secrets of love, secrets of love
Like a feather falling from the blue sky
It twists and turns as it passes us by
Somehow it found us, now we can hold it
And make a wing if we try
And we?ll fly away, baby, no matter where
The winds of fate will take us
I believe that we?ll never really figure out the mystery
That?s behind all of the joy we're feelin?
I can see that some things are beyond understanding
These are the secrets of love, secrets of love
And we?ll fly away, baby, no matter where
The winds of fate will take us
I believe that we?ll never really figure out the mystery
That?s behind all of the joy we're feelin?
I can see that some things are beyond understanding
Really touch somebody.
Really, really touch somebody.
With a random act of love.
VERSE: 1
Everything we do with good intent
Won’t ever disappear, it only ripples into habit
Ever deep, cause it’s no accident
That you and I are here
And you and I were meant to happen
CHORUS
There’s one thing, that i know
That’s like a gift unto the giver
And that’s a random act of love
Everyday find a cause
And let it flow just like a river
Into a random act of love
VERSE: 2
An open heart can change the world we know
Into a loving place
Reviving everything that’s givin’ in it
Every spark, another chance to grow
Let love illuminate
The place where light is dimming

There’s one thing, that i know
That’s like a gift unto the giver
And that’s a random act of love
Everyday find a cause
And let it flow just like a river
Into a random act of love
VERSE 3
One simple thing,
can really touch somebody
Make somebody smile inside
What joy it brings,
to really touch somebody
Love’s a win-win heart reliever,
As good for the giver as it is the receiver.
Really touch somebody with a random act of love
Really touch somebody with a random act of love
CHORUS X 2
Just one thing I know,
That's a gift to the giver
Just one thing I know,
Just, let it flow like a river
Just one thing I know,
Making life even better
One thing that I know,
Flip your script
CHORUS X
One thing that I know of love
Well, love`s got a hold on me,won`t let go;
`cause it`s the real thing ba-by,
I just want you to know
that I love you all the way,
more and more each day.
I love to hear you say,`Well, loves got a hold of me too,
I know it`s true; I get that funny feeling just from being close to you.
When I listen to your heart-beat
not another sound so sweet,
Please hold my hand.`
And we climbed the highest mountain
And we sailed the seven seas,
And nobody was with us
At the top of the world in love
And runnin` free.
`Baby, I`m on fire,
And it feels so good
To have this warm desire
Like a woman should who`s really got
Someone to make love to.
I`ll stay right here forever with you.`
Well, I`ll be right here beside you till the end,
And kiss your eyes and cast away your troubles to the wind,
And love you for all my life,
And take you for my wife,
Please hold my hand.
And we climbed the highest mountain
And we sailed the seven seas,
And nobody was with us
At the top of the world in love
And runnin` free.
I can see the love light shinin`
Like a rainbow in your eyes.
Listen to your heartbeat.
Ain`t nobody here with us,
Listen to your heartbeat,
Ain`t nobody here with us.
Listen to your heartbeat,
Do you wanna motor west?
Go my way, take the highway, that’s the best.
Get your kicks,
Route 66.
Winds from Chicago to L.A.,
More than 3,000 miles all the way.
Get your kicks on
Route 66.
Well it goes through St. Louis, Joplin, Missouri.
Oklahoma City looks might, mighty pretty.
See Amarillo, Gallup, New Mexico.
Flagstaff Arizona, don’t forget Winona.
Kingman, Barstow, San Bernadino.
Won’t you get hip to this timely tip?
When you make your California trip,
Get your kicks on
Route 66.

Won’t you get hip to this timely tip?
When you make your California trip,
Get, Get your kicks on

Chorus:
Does anyone wanna go
Waltzing in the garden?
Does anyone wanna go
Dance up on the roof?
(repeat)
On the town,
Sequins evening gown.
Climb those stairs
To that ballroom in the air
Get to poppin.'
Chorus
If you dare,
Dream of yesteryear.
In the air
Do a step with Fred Astaire.
Get your top hat.
Chorus
You can be
What you want to be
Come waltz with me
Or a hot steppin' boogie.
Funk in the pocket.
Chorus
No one stays
In downtown these days.
Country calls
Got us one and all.
B'fore we end
Let me reccommend
What to do
When your heart is light or blue.
Get to steppin.'
Does anyone wanna go
Waltzing in the garden?
Does anyone wanna go
Dance up on the roof?
Love me, love me tender
My being surrenders to you
'Cause you know what to do
So make me, make me tremble
That will be a symbol of
The L-O-V-E's there when
We make love
We make love
Ya bring me pleasure
When I'm feelin' pain
I go to meet ya
In the fallin' rain
It's such a pleasure
When ya call my name
Stay tonight and
Play the pleasure game
So baby, be gentle
And cuddle a little with me
Then tell me tenderly
You want me, want me forever
And say there's no better love
Than what you get
When we make love
We make love
Ya bring me pleasure
When I'm feelin' pain
I go to meet ya
In the fallin' rain
It's such a pleasure
When ya call my name
Stay tonight and
Play the pleasure game
Your love is such a pleasure
And I'm so glad you found me
I'm yours measure for measure
Just wrap your arms around me
Ya bring me pleasure
When I'm feelin' pain
I go to meet ya
In the fallin' rain
It's such a pleasure
When ya call my name
Stay tonight and
Play the pleasure game
The L-O-V-E's there
When we make love
We make love
Ya bring me pleasure
When I'm feelin' pain
I go to meet ya
In the fallin' rain
It's such a pleasure
When ya call my name
Stay tonight and
There's a land where lovers dream,
Where poets dwell.
We can sail tomorrow.
There is always room for one
Who wishes well.
There are doubters who
Will be welcome too.
When you can't afford the fare,
There's a wish to borrow.
Our love,we must never doubt it.
Our love,when you think about it.
Love like our's will live a
Thousand years.
Yes,I know you've heard the story
Without end.And you're uninspired.
Still,a walk without a wish
Cannot begin,
If you wish at all,
We can conquer all-
Learn to walk and run again,
You and I stalkin' each other
Beatin' around the bush
You and I stuck in the weather
Somebody needs a push
Every time you decide
That the time isn't right
Every time that you hide
From your feelings your loneliness wins
Let love begin
Let the magic happen
Give me half a chance
CHORUS:
I'll hold you now
I'll show you now
I'll give you all of my love
Speaks louder that words
Let this love keep talkin'
I'll hold you now
I'll show you how
I'll give you all of my love
Speaks louder than words
Please let me in
Let this love begin
Every time you make a promise
I've been the one who waits
Only time's keepin' it from us
Love never comes too late
As I live and I breathe
You will someday believe
I'm the one that you need,
Let your feelings forget where you've been
Let love begin
Let the magic happen
Give me half a chance
