To know you?ll always be around me
Incredible, what you are to me
Incredible, you bring out the woman in me
With your style of love
Inseparable, yes, we are
We?re like a flower to a tree
Like words to a melody of love
There?s no way we can break up
No words that can make us blow our thing
We?re just inseparable, that?s how it is
Inseparable for the rest of our years
It?s so wonderful
Ya yeh ya, hey-ey ya

To make up your life
So, I'm going back to New York City
Where people live
In my reality, all of my life
Yours was no good for me
Need to feel the beat of the street
In my life in my reality

If you could see me now you'd know how blue I've been
One look is all you need to see the mood I'm in
Perhaps when you'd realize I'm still in love with you
If you could see me now you'd find me being raised
And trying offly hard to make my tears behave
But that's quite impossible, I'm still in love with you
You happened my way on some memorable day
A month will be made for a while
I'll try to smile but can I play the part without my heart
Behind the smile
The way I feel for you I never could disguise
The look of love is written plainly in my eyes
I think you'd be mine again
If you could see the way you captured me
You may be an ambassador to England or France
You might like to gamble, you might like to dance
You may be the heavyweight champion of the world
You might be a socialite with a long string of pearls
But you're gonna have to serve somebody, serve somebody
Serve somebody, serve somebody
It might be the devil or it might be the Lord
But you're gonna have to serve somebody
You might be a rock 'n' roll man, prancing on the stage
Plenty of drugs at your command and women in a cage
You might be a businessman or some high degree thief
They may call you 'Doctor', they may call you 'Chief'
But you're gonna have to serve somebody, serve somebody
Oh, serve somebody, yeah, yeah, serve somebody
Oh, it may be the devil or it might be the Lord
But you're gonna have to serve somebody
Now, you may be a State Trooper, you might be a young Turk
You may even be the head of some great big TV network
You may be rich or poor and you may be blind or chained
You might be living in another country under another name
But you're gonna have to serve somebody, serve somebody
Oh, serve somebody, serve somebody
It might be the devil or it might be the Lord
But you're still gonna have to serve somebody
Maybe a construction worker working on a home
Might be living in a mansion, you might live in a dome
You may own guns, you may even own tanks
You may be somebody's landlord, you might even own banks
But you're gonna have to serve somebody, serve somebody
Oh yeah, serve somebody, serve somebody
Oh, it might be the devil or it might be the Lord
But you're gonna have to serve somebody
Now you can call me Terry or you might call me Moore
You may call me David or you might call me Coe
You can call me RJ or you can call me Ray
You can call me anything, I don't care what you say
You're gonna have to serve somebody, serve somebody
Oh, serve somebody, serve somebody
It might be the devil or it might be the Lord
But you're gonna have to serve somebody
You may be a rock 'n' roll star, prancing on the stage
You got plenty of drugs at your command, you got women in a cage
You might be a big businessman or some high degree thief
Now they might call you 'Doctor', they might call you 'Chief'
But you're gonna have to serve somebody, serve somebody
Serve somebody, serve somebody

Sky so vast is the sky
With far away clouds just wandering by
Where do they go? Oh, I don't know, don't know
Wind that speaks to the leaves
Telling Stories that no one believes
Stories of love belong to you and me
Oh Dindi, if I only had words
I would say all the beautiful things that I see
When you're with me, oh, my Dindi
Oh Dindi, like the song of the wind in the trees
That's how my heart is singing Dindi
Happy Dindi when you're with me
I love you more each day, yes, I do, yes, I do
I'd let you go away if you take me with you
Don't you know, my Dindi?
I'd be running and searching for you
Like a river that can't find the sea
That would be me without you, my Dindi
I love you more each day, yes, I do, yes, I do
I'd let you go away if you take me with you
Don't you know, Dindi?
I'd be running and searching for you
Like a river that can't find the sea
That would be me without you, without you, yeah

It's okay, 'cause the rain must fall every now and then
But oh, ho, ho
Everything's gonna be alright again
(There goes that smile again)
There goes that smile again
The one that shines through I'll defend
Never have I seen eyes like yours
That smile much better than any I know
(Even your wrinkles shine)

Won't you stay awhile
Won't you look through me
So I can be what you see

It never would have shown
That you were blind

Let's build a stairway to the stars
And climb that stairway to the stars
With love beside us to fill the night with a song
We'll hear the sound of violins
Way out yonder where the blue begins
The moon will guide us as we go drifting along
Can't we sail away on a lazy daisy petal
Over the rim of the hill?
Can't we sail away on a little dream
And settle high on the crest of a thrill?
Let's build a stairway to the stars
A lovely stairway to the stars
It would be heaven to climb to heaven with you
Can't we sail away on a lazy daisy petal
Over the rim of the hill?
Well, can't we sail away on a little dream
And settle high on the crest of a thrill?
Let's build a stairway to the stars
And climb that stairway to the stars
You're my morning star, shining brightly beside me
And if we keep this love, we will last through all eternity
Just the way we are, I love it, love it,
It's just the way it should be
Cuz our love will stand tall as the trees
Our love will spread wide as the sea
Our love will shine bright in the night
Like the stars above and we'll always be together
(Our love)
My love is surely one thing you can surely depend on
In times of darkness and fear I go to you
I know you'll make me strong
You're gonna make me happy and you're gonna make me smile
Cuz our love will stand tall as the trees
Our love will be for the whole world to see
Our love will change people's wrongs to right
And we'll never die, cuz we'll always have each other------
Ha--ooh, ooh, ooh, ha, ha
Our love will stand tall as the trees
Our love will spread wide as the sea
Our love will shine bright in the night
Like the stars above and we'll always be together, yeh

Our love, we got a mighty, mighty good love
Ooh that's right, bring it down, just a little
Cuz love is soft, love is sweet, Love is nice, love is gentle
Love is joy, love is pain, Love is laughing in the rain

Love is always right on time
Love is you, love is me
Love is just a little baby

Let the dishes wait, no need in dusting
No reason to clean the dirty floor
'Cause I'm sure it doesn't matter
Now that he has gone away
I have no plans for the future 'cause he's not here today
Let them go to the park and I'll sit alone here in the dark
No joy left in my heart anymore
Let me hold on to my memories
And if I die this way just let it be
I have no plans for the future 'cause he's not here with me
Why should I comb my head when I know I'm not going anywhere
Why should I keep right on giving when I've lost my only reason for living
So go on, just go on and have yourself a ball
I have no plans for the future 'cause he's not here
I have no plans for the future 'cause he's not here at all
Hm, hm, hm...

Picture yourself on the sea of a setting sun
The salty air and the taste of your lover's hair
Inside you want to fly
Ah, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi
Come to the magical mist where the oceans kissed
A thousand kisses or more on the sandy shore
And never says goodbye
Ah, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi
Ooh, La Costa, ooh
Ooh, La Costa, ooh
Come feel the warm of the breeze as the swaying trees
Caress the velvety skies like a whisper telling you to come and fly
Ah, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi
Musical Interlude
Run with the wind at your side let it set you free
I'll watch the sun in your eyes as the seagulls fly
Along this lover's isle
Ah, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi
You are my love and my life, you're my everything
You calm the sea of my soul oh so tenderly
It makes me very high
Ah, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi
Ooh La Costa, wee, ooh, wee
Ooh La Costa, ooh
Picture yourself on the sea...
Come feel the warm of the breeze..

Joey---, Joey----
Joey, where are you going
Where will you sleep tonight
Will you be alright
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Joey, I really love you
Won't you make here your home so you'll never live alone anymore, oh
We both took a ride on that merry-go-round
We've seen a lot of faces of the same ole' clowns
But let's not be a part of that continuous game
Let's start a new life that will never change
Joey, where are you going
Won't you take me along, your place is my home
Joey---, hoo, hoo
There's no pot of gold at the end of the rainbow
True fortunes are deeper than the world is old so
We've got to dig up and plant love again
Just don't let it vanish, no
And you settle
My Joey, where are you going, where are you going
Dont, don't, dont go, Joey, Joey, Joey, Joey
Don't you hear me calling, don't you hear me calling to you
Joey, Joey, Joey, Joey, Joey, Joey, Joey, Joey, Joey
Hoo, don't you hear me calling to you, Joey, Joey, Joey
Don't leave me alone, I wanna be with you
I wanna go with you, I wanna be with you, Joey, Joey, Joey
I jump up at down, shake out the sun
Laugh like a loon, everything is fun
It's crazy, but I'm in love
I act like a fool; what do I care?
I'll be a fool as long as you're there
It's crazy, but I'm in love
I spread my wings and then I fly
All around the city
The world's my sweet potato pie,
And I'm sittin' mighty pretty
I sleep by the stars, chase that old moon,
Fall into of bed hummin' a tune
I never loved him, he never reached me
He was just someone, someone I knew
I think about him on alternate Thursdays
When I haven't got anything better to do
He's got a problem if he thinks I need him
I couldn't care less now that we're through
I only sit home and I wait for his phone call
When I haven't got anything better to do
Wasn't I awfully smart not to fall and break my heart
He never meant a thing to me, he's gone
I'm glad, I'm free
And when he kissed me, no no he never moved me
Nothing fantastic, thrilling or new
So if I'm crying, I'm only crying
Cause I haven't got anything better
No I haven't got anything better
I haven't got anything better to do...without you
I never loved him, no he never moved me
Stand up, stand on your own
That's what they tell me
You can make it alone
Where does it say I have to move
Far away from you
To prove I'm strong?
Oh, when all it really proves
Is I'm lonely without you
And loneliness has to be wrong
I live for your love
(Everyday)
Every minute
I live for your love
(In my life)
Want you in it
I live for your love
I admit it
I live for your love
I wake up with no one to kiss
Sometimes I wonder
(Wonder, wonder)
If I just exist
I know there are people I can see
Places I could be
And friends who call
Oh, but what good does it do
There's no substitute for you
I want you or nothing at all
I live for your love
(Everyday)
Every minute
I live for your love
(In my life)
Want you in it
I live for your love
I admit it
I live for your love and your kisses
And know how I'm missing
Your sweet tender touch
(Tender touch)
I need you so much
That I just can't go on anymore
What I wouldn't give for
'Cause darling I live for your love
(Everyday)
Every minute
I live for your love
(Got one life)
Want you in it
I live for your love
I hate to admit it
But oh, I live for, I'd die for
What I wouldn't give for your love
(I live for your love)
(Everyday)
I live for your love
(Got one life)
Everyday, every minute
(I live for your love)
I have only got one life
I want you in it
Oh, my baby, yes, yes

Just like a welcome fire
That comes in the cold
You make my heart warm
And a little more love is born
And I'm caught up once again on you
Soft as a rose, your tenderness glows
But you're so strong
And I know I'm gonna love you long
Well, crazy maybe
But I've seen paradise
Here in your eyes
I'm in seventh heaven
Ooh, there's nothing quite
Like spending your life
With a special someone
It feels so right
When the lights are out
And I'm in the dark
I'm not afraid, no
Long as I can get a piece of your heart
And the wind sighs
I love you
Specially when we touch
I need it so much
And I'm glad that we found love
Let the record show that I know that I've
Seen paradise here in your eyes
I'm in seventh heaven
Ooh, there's nothing quite
Like spending your life
With a special someone
It feels so right
Hmm, ooh (paradise)
Hey, I'm in para, para-dise, yeah
I'm in paradise, you know
You know that I like, you know that I like
You know that I like to be in paradise
(Paradise) I'm in paradise
And for those who think that there's no such thing
As eternity, they should take a look at you and me

The last guest has gone
I can tell you're as thankful as I
A good time was had by all
And a little wine
I know by that look
(Hmm) You've got other things on your mind
And I can't resist that sign
So turn out the lights and close the door
We need the night to be alone
Shut out the world-just let it spin
Why don't we make a little bit of heaven
Just talk to my heart
(Ooh) Say the words that I want to hear
Darling, tonight I need you near
So turn out the light and close the door
We need some time to be alone
Shut out the world-just let it spin
And maybe we'll touch
A little bit of heaven
Oh---, oh, oh, hmm---
Shut out the world-just let it spin
Maybe we'll touch a little bit of heaven
Heaven's right here for us
We don't need a mountain to climb, no, no, no
There's just the two of us
And the love between the lines
Turn out the light and close the door
We need the night to be alone
Shut out the world just let it spin
Why don't we make a little bit of heaven
Turn out the light and close that door
Maybe we'll find a little bit of heaven
Turn out the light, Baby, and close the door
I know we can make a little bit of heaven
Honey, turn out the light, yeah, and close the door
Maybe we'll find a little bit of heaven
Turn out the light and close the door
Maybe we'll find, oh, a little bit of heaven

I never know what you're thinking
I never could read your mind
I never know when I'll see you again
You might stop by but any time
You tell me we're going out on the town
And you won't be ready when you call
Sometimes you come later than you said you would
Bless your heart, sometimes you don't come at all

(Unpredictable you) but I love you, yes I do (yes I do)
You change like the weather, ha

You're like a wheel of fortune, but when you're gonna stop nobody knows
But I can't help but love you, you, you're surely part of me
And if it's gonna be like this forever, well, then I'll say just let it be, let it be

Have you been to the very top of the highest hill
Where the air is fresh and sweet and the sky is so clear
Looking out on the country side and the view of the villages so far away
There is nothing to feel, nothing to feel
Come with me, won't you take my hand
Let's explore this heaven right here on earth, peaceful living is here
Me and you on this mountaintop with our love we will never stop
'Cause we both know peaceful living is right here
And here we are in Utopia where the sun never seems to go away
And the moon is our friend, hmm
Looking out on a starry night and the sky is like a sleigh for riding on
But you don't need a pin, you don't need a pin
Precious one, you're a joy to me
And I know that there's no place else I'd rather be
Peaceful living is here, yeah, yeah
Me and you on this mountain top with our love we'll never stop
And we both know peaceful living is right right, hoo--
And the moon is our friend, me and you, yeah, yeah, yeah--
Precious one you're a joy to me
And I know that there's no place else I'd rather be
Peaceful is living here, oh, me and you on this mountaintop
With our love we'll never stop 'cause we both know peaceful living is here
We both know peaceful living is here
We both know peaceful living is right here

There ain't nothin' stronger than love
There ain't no word greater than love
And once you feel that your whole life will change, yeah
You'll never wanna hurt again, no one, never wanna hurt again
There ain't no tears, no tears wetter than love
There ain't no smile, no smile, no smile
No smile wider than love and when all forsake you
They seem to see wrong in what you say, yeah
Nobody holds the key, nobody holds the key to the answer
I know that love will show the way, yeah
Love will show the way
There ain't nothin' stronger than love
There ain't nothin' stronger than love, no love
Now you can live on my friend but you'll never, never find
No love, the word I'm talkin' 'bout can give you peace of mind
Love is the answer to the burden that you have in your heart
I know, it can give a lonely person a brand new start
Love is a blessing, ooh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I like to think about love as a bridge over troubled water
Oh, I like to think about love as the little children playing together
There ain't nothin', nothin' stronger than love
You know, I like to think about it, no, I like to think
There ain't nothin', nothin' stronger than love, about it, love, no
There ain't nothin', nothin' stronger than love
I really like to think about everybody, everybody comin', no
Together, there ain't nothin', nothin' stronger than love
I really like to think about it, I can see the day, yeah, no
It's gonna happen one of these ol' days, no love

Growing up wasn't easy for Annie Mae
(Hoo, hoo, hoo)
A little girl in a great big world
Annie Mae (hoo, hoo, hoo)
No one knew about her past

Looking at life through an empty shell
And all the time she's catching hell
She was growing

Does anybody know where is Annie Mae today

All you got to do is look into the faces of
All the young girls
On the avenue--(young girls!)
Oh, well, (hoo, hoo, hoo) ha
In the night hear her cry, Annie Mae (hoo, hoo, hoo)
Hurt and pain keeps coming again
And again, and again, Annie Mae (hoo, hoo, hoo)
Trippin' and runnin' is blowin' her mind
Tryin' to decide if she'll make it this time

When I fall in love it will be forever
Or I'll never fall in love
In a restless world such as this is
Love has ended before it's begun
And too many moonlight kisses
Seem to cool in the warmth of the sun (sun)
When I give my heart it will be completely
Or I'll never give my heart
No, no, no
And the moment I can feel (feel that) that
You feel that way too
Is when I fall in love with you
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
Ooh, ooh

La, la, la, la, la, la, la
Oh and when I give my heart

You feel the same way too

Woah, ho ho
Everlasting, what a feeling
Just to know the love we've got is
Everlasting and never ending
Is all I need to keep on givin'
I was just an average girl
Playing the field, hoping
For someone to come into my world
Someone not afraid to look into my eyes
And make a connection
Then you walked in my direction
And from the moment that we touched
I knew what we found was
Everlasting, what a feeling
Just to know the love we've got is
Everlasting and never ending
Is all I need to keep on givin'
Walking down a one way street
I had to be careful
'Cause it seemed that every guy that I'd meet
Was looking just to have another one night stand
But through your devotion
I surrendered my emotion
I'm giving you the best of me
'Cause I'm sure that we'll be
Everlasting, what a feeling
Just to know the love we've got is
Everlasting and never ending
Is all I need to keep on givin'
Everlasting love, oh yeah
It's gonna be, it's gonna be a
Everlasting love, uh, ha
Even though the cold wind's blowin'
Nothing keeps our love from growin'
Through the fire we will survive together
Until the end of time
Everlasting, what a feeling
Just to know the love we've got is
Everlasting and never ending
Is all I need to keep on givin'
Everlasting, what a feeling
Our love's gonna grow
Even through the fire, baby
Everlasting and never ending
Even though the cold wind's blowin'
Nothing keeps our love from growing
Through the fire we will survive together
Until the end of time
Everlasting, what a feeling
It's gonna be, it's gonna be a
Everlasting and never ending
Until the end of time
And even through the fire, baby
Everlasting, what a feeling
Just to know that the love we've got is
Everlasting and never ending
What a feeling
Everlasting love, woah
Everlasting love, woah
Everlasting love, woah
When I wake up each morning trying to find myself
And if I'm ever the least unsure, I always remind myself
Though you're someone in this world that I'll always choose to love
From now on you're only someone that I used to love
As for me it's getting down to the last unspoken part
When you must begin to ease the pain of a broken heart
Tell me why should I even care if I have to lose your love
From now on you're only someone that I used to love
Yet it wasn't enough for you
All the love I had to give
I did my best to keep you satisfied
I guess you'll never know how much I tried, I really tried
And if ever our paths should cross again
Well, you won't find me being the one to get lost again
Once I had so much to give but you just refused my love
From now on you're only someone that I used to love
I did my best to keep you satisfied
I guess you'll never know how much I tried, I really tried
When I wake up each morning trying to find myself
And if I'm ever the least unsure, I always remind myself
Though you're someone in this world that I'll always choose to love
From now on you're only someone that I used to love
From now on you're only someone that I used to love
Though you're someone in this world that I'll always choose to love
From now on you're only someone that I used to love
(Written by Natalie Cole, Marvin Yancy and Kevin Yancy)
You know, of all the things in the world I'd miss
It would probably be music and love
They say you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone
That's so true
Even though we still take it for granted
And I used to be like that but not anymore
'Cause I found out what love really means
Love means happiness and dedication
Love will sometimes bring complications
But you must have faith and a whole lot of trust
Most of all you can never give up just
(Hold on, hold on)
Hold on to your good thing, yeah
(Hold on, hold on) forget about the small things
(Hold on, hold on) do it for love, do it for love
And remember that love is a feeling
But it's also an action, yes
You've got to give sometime
If you want to get back some, well
And when all the king's horses
And even all the king's men
Can't put it together again
That is exactly when you've got to
(Hold on, hold on) hold on to what you've got
(Hold on, hold on)
It's the little things that mean alot
(Hold on, hold on) do it for love, do it for love
In spite of everything, no matter what
You've got to H-O-L-D on (you gotta hold on)
Hold on, hmm, hmm, hmm, ooh, oh, oh
You're so hard headed
'Cause you feel that you're right
Well, tell me how you gonna feel
In the middle of the night
All alone, all alone
I know, I know
It doesn't matter who's right or wrong
If you feel so inclined
To blame that shame on someone else
Ooh, stop and think about it
Point the finger at yourself
Ooh, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo
Hold on to your good thing (hold on)
Forget about the small (hold on) things
(Hold on) And hold on
Hold on, oh hold on (hold on)
Real tight in spite of everything
Hold on (hold on)
When you feel like walking out that door
Written by Natalie Cole
Beautiful dreamer, you are like magic to me
'Cause you share all your love
And your life and your love is so fine in my life
It's just what I've been looking for
Searching for and you care
Beautiful dreamer, not an illusion to me
You know I can tell by the way that you've taken my hand
In a moment of sadness your gladness is there to surround me
Astound me and you care
I've seen all the people (waiting at the station)
Waiting at the station
(no imagination) No imagination
They're too busy doing nothing
Making all kinds of arrangements
(Nothing's really) But nothing's really changing them
(Changing them)
They're (they're) still asking why (why) their well is dry
I tried to tell them that love is the answer
They need a beautiful dreamer
If I could I'd share you with them
Oh, but you know it took so very long to find what I've needed
And my greatest obsession is doing my best
Just to keep you and love you 'cause you care
You're one in a million
(Always giving into) Always giving in to
(me whenever I begin to) me whenever I begin to act
A little like I'm crazy
Still (still you never faulter) you never faulter
(never try to alter) or never try to alter my integrity
How I could I not be proud to have your wisdom
You're such a beautiful dreamer (beautiful dreamer)
You are like magic to me
'Cause you share all your love
And your life (and your life)
And your love is so fine
(So fine in my life) in my life
And you know its just what I've been searching for
Looking for and you care
(Beautiful) beautiful dreamer (dreamer)
Silent night, holy night, all is calm, all is bright
Round young 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 host 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
Here I am, there you are
If you ask me to walk a thousand miles
Just to be where you are
I can't say no if you ask me
If I had a dime, it's yours as well as mine
I'd keep the penny, you know I would
And gladly give you the nine
I can't say no if you ask me
If you told me tonight to get up
Pack my bags, let's go away
I wouldn't even care what my mommy
What my daddy might have to say
'Cause I can't say no if you ask me
No, you're too beautiful to be, to be
No, you mean everything to me
No, and that's why I, that's why I, that's why I
I can't say no if you ask me
Sometimes I get so angry with him
I walk around and I pout all day
And then he kisses me and asks me, do I love him
In a sweet, soft, sexy kind of way
I can't say no if he asks me
Ooh, no, I can't say no if he asks me
I can't say no if you ask me
I can't say no if you ask me
I can't say no if you ask me
With my eyes wide open, I'm dreaming
Can it be true, I'm holding you close to my heart?
With my eyes wide open, I'm dreaming
You're with me now, sharing a vow never to part
When I'm so afraid
To close my eyes
Afraid that I'll find
This lovely thrill is just a silly illusion
With my eyes wide open, I'm dreaming
Do I deserve such a break?
Pinch me to prove I'm awake
'Coz I can't believe that you're really mine
I'm so afraid
This is just an illusion
With my eyes wide open, I'm dreaming
Do I deserve such a break?
Please, pinch me to prove I'm awake
I can't believe that you're really mine
You're really mine
Am I dreaming? I must be dreaming
With my eyes wide open
Unforgettable, that's what you are
Unforgettable, though near or far
Like a song of love that clings to me
How the thought of you does things to me
Never before has someone been more
Unforgettable, in every way
And forevermore, that's how you'll stay
(And forevermore, that's how you'll stay)
That's why darling it's incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too
No, never before has someone been more
Ooh, unforgettable in every way
(Unforgettable in every way)
And forevermore, that's how you'll stay
(And forevermore, that's how you'll stay)
That's why darling it's incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa, men have named you
You're so like the lady with the mystic smile
Is it only 'cause you're lonely they have blamed you?
For that Mona Lisa strangeness in your style
Do you smile to tempt a lover, Mona Lisa?
Or is this your way to hide a broken heart?
Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep
They just lie there and they die there
Are you warm? Are you real, Mona Lisa?
Or just a cold and lonely, lovely work of art
Do you smile to tempt a lover, Mona Lisa?
Or is this your way to hide a broken heart?
Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep
They just lie there and they die there
Are you warm? Are you real, Mona Lisa?
Or just a cold and lonely, lovely work of art
I'd work for you, I'd slave for you
I'd be a beggar or a knave for you
If that isn't love, it will have to do
Until the real thing comes along
I'd gladly move the earth for you
To prove my love, dear, and it's worth for you
If that isn't love, it will have to do
Until the real thing comes along
With all the words, dear, at my command
I just can't make you understand
I'll always love you, darling, come what may
My heart is yours, what more can I say?
I'd sigh for you, I'd cry for you
I'd tear the stars down from the sky for you
If that isn't love, it will have to do
Until the real thing comes along
I'll always love you, darling, come what may
My heart is yours, what more can I say?
I'd sigh for you, I'd cry for you
I'd tear the stars down from the sky for you
If that isn't love, it will have to do
Until the real thing comes along
And when I hold you in my arms I promise you
You're gonna feel a love that's beautiful and new
This time I'll love you even better than I ever did before
And you'll be in my heart forevermore
We, we're just too young to know we fell in love and let it go
So easy to say the words goodbye, so hard to let the feelings die
I know how much I need you now, the time is turning back somehow
As soon as our hearts and soul unite
I know for sure we'll get the feeling's right
And now we're starting over again, it's not the easiest thing to do
I'm feeling inside again, 'cause every time I looked at you
I know we're starting over again, this time we'll leave all the pain away
Welcome home my lover and friend, we are starting over, over again
If we never leaved love then we might have never known
All the times we spent apart, all we did was break each other's heart
And when I hold you in my arms I promise you
You're gonna feel the love that's beautiful and new
This time I'll love you ever better than I ever did before
And you'll be in my heart forever more
And now we're starting over again, it's not the easiest thing to do
I'm feeling inside again, 'cause every time I looked at you
I know we're starting over again, this time we'll leave all the pain away
Welcome home my lover and friend, we are starting over, over again
Now we're starting over again, this time we'll chase all the rain away
Welcome home my lover and friend, we are starting over, over again
Sometimes I wonder why I spend
The lonely night dreaming of a song
The melody haunts my reverie
And I am once again with you
When our love was new
And each kiss an inspiration
But that was long ago
And now my consolation
Is in the stardust of a song
And beside a garden wall
When stars were bright
You are in my arms
The nightingale told his fairy tale
A paradise where roses bloom
Though I dream in vain
In my heart it always will remain
My stardust melody
The memory of love's refrain
Though I dream in vain
In my heart it always will remain
My stardust melody
The memory of love's refrain
The holly and the ivy
When they are both full grown
Of all the trees
That are in the wood,
The holly wears the crown
Chorus:
O the rising of the sun
The running of the deer
The playing of the merry organ
Sweet singing in the choir
Sweet singing in the choir
The holly bears a blossom
As white as lily flower
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ
To be our sweet Saviour
(Chorus)
The holly bears a berry
As red as any blood
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ
To do poor sinners good
(Chorus)
The holly bears a prickle
As sharp as any thorn
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ
On Christmas day in the morn
(Chorus)
The holly bears a bark
As bitter as any gall
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ
For to redeem us all
(Chorus)
The holly and the ivy
When they are both full grown
Of all the trees
That are in the wood
The holly wears the crown
Take a look in the mirror, look at yourself
But don't you look too close
'Cause you just might see the person
That you hate the most
Lord, what's happening to this human race
I can't even see one friendly face
Brothers fight brothers and sisters wink their eyes
While silver tongues bear fruits of poison lies
Take a look at your children born innocent
Every boy and every girl
Denying themselves a real chance
To build a better world
Oh, ohh dear Lord, what's happening to your precious dream?
I think its washin' away on a bloody, bloody stream, yes
Take a look at your children
Before it's too late, and tell them nobody
Nobody wins when the prize is hate
Oh, no, no, no it's not too late
We gotta tell all of our children
That love, love, love is the way

How do you keep
The music playing?
How do you make it last
How do keep
The song from fading
Too fast
How do you lose yourself
To someone
And never lose your way
How do you not run
Out of new things
To say
And since you know
We're always changing
How can it be the same
And tell me how
Year after year
You're sure your heart
Will fall apart
Each time
You hear her name
I know the way
I feel for you
Is now or never
The more
I love the more
that I'm afraid
That in your eyes
I may not see forever
Forever
If we can be
The best of lovers
Yet be the best of friends
If we can try with every day
To make it better as it goes
With any luck than I suppose
I used to walk with you
Along the avenue
Our hearts were carefree and gay
How could I know I'd lose you
Somewhere along the way?
The friends we used to know
Would always smile, "Hello"
No love like our love they'd say
Then love slipped through our fingers
Somewhere along the way
I should forget
But with the loneliness of night
I start remembering everything
You're gone and yet
There's still a feeling deep inside
That you will always be part of me
So now I look for you
Along the avenue
And as I wander I pray
That some day soon, I'll find you
Somewhere along the way
I should forget
But with the loneliness of night
I start remembering everything
You're gone and yet
There's still a feeling deep inside
That you will always be part of me
So now I look for you
Along the avenue
And as I wander I pray
That some day soon, I'll find you
Somewhere along the way
Inseparable, that?s how we?ll always be
Inseparable, just you and me
It?s so wonderful
To know you?ll always be around me
Incredible, what you are to me
Incredible, you bring out the woman in me
With your style of love
Inseparable, yes, we are
We?re like a flower to a tree
Like words to a melody of love
There?s no way we can break up
No words that can make us blow our thing
We?re just inseparable, that?s how it is
Inseparable for the rest of our years
It?s so wonderful
