There was a time I was everything and nothing all in one When you found me I was feeling like a cloud across the sun I need to tell you How you light up every second of the day But in the moonlight You just shine like a beacon on the bay And I can't explain But it's something about the way you look tonight Takes my breath away It's that feeling I get about you, deep inside And I can't describe But it's something about the way you look tonight Takes my breath away The way you look tonight With your smile You pull the deepest secrets from my heart In all honesty I'm speechless and I don't know where to start

The sun is shining, there's plenty of light (oh yeah) A new day is dawning, sunny and bright (oh yeah) But after I've been crying all night The sun is cold, and the new day seems old Since I lost my baby. (Since I lost my baby.) Oh, since I lost my baby. (Oh, since I lost my baby.) The birds are singing and the children are playing There's plenty of work and the bosses are paying Not a sad word should a young heart be saying But fun is a bore and with money I'm poor. Since I lost my baby. (Since I lost my baby.) Oh, since I lost my baby. (Oh, since I lost my baby.) Next time I'll be kinder (Next time I'll be kinder) Won't you please help me find her (Won't you please help me find her) Someone just remind her (Someone just remind her) Of this love she left behind her (Of this love she left behind her) Till I find her I'll be trying ta (Till I find her I'll be trying ta) Everyday I'm more inclined ta Find her Inclined ta Find her Inclined ta find my baby Been looking everywhere (ba--by) Baby, I really, really care! Oh, determination is fading fast (oh yeah) Inspiration is a thing of the past (oh yeah) Can't see how my hope's gonna last Good things are bad and what's happy is sad Since I lost my baby. (Since I lost my baby.) Oh, since I lost my baby. (Oh, since I lost my baby.) I feel so bad (since I lost my baby) I feel so sad (since I lost my baby) Everything is wrong This heart is hard to carry on (since I lost my baby) I'm lost as can be (since I lost my baby) What's gonna happen to me?

I'd like to run away from you, but if you never found me I would die I'd like to break the chains you put around me, but I know I never will You stay away and all I do is wonder why the hell I wait for you But when did common sense prevail for lovers when we know it never will Impossible to live with you, but I know, I could never live without you For whatever you do I never, never, never want to be in love with anyone but you You never treat me like you should, so what's the good of loving as I do? Although you always laugh at love, nothing else would be good enough for you Impossible to live with you, but I know, I could never live without you For whatever you do I never, never, never want to be in love with anyone but you You make me laugh, you make me cry, you make me live, you make me die, for you You make me sing, you make me sad, you make me glad, you make me mad, for you I love you, hate you, love you, hate you But I'll want you till the world stops turning For whatever you do I never, never, never want to be in love with anyone but you I love you, hate you, love you, hate you But I'll want you till the world stops turning For whatever you do I never, never, never want to be in love with anyone but you I love you, hate you, love you, hate you But I'll want you till the world stops turning For whatever you do I never, never, never want to be in love with anyone but you

When the rain is blowing in your face, And the whole world is on your case, I could offer you a warm embrace To make you feel my love. When the evening shadows and the stars appear, And there is no one there to dry your tears, I could hold you for a million years To make you feel my love. I know you haven't made your mind up yet, But I will never do you wrong. I've known it from the moment that we met, No doubt in my mind where you belong. I'd go hungry; I'd go black and blue, I'd go crawling down the avenue. No, there's nothing that I wouldn't do To make you feel my love. The storms are raging on the rolling sea And on the highway of regret. The winds of change are blowing wild and free, You ain't seen nothing like me yet. I could make you happy, make your dreams come true. Nothing that I wouldn't do. Go to the ends of the Earth for you, To make you feel my love To make you feel my love

Picture perfect memories scattered all around the floor. Reaching for the phone 'cause I can't fight it anymore. And I wonder if I ever cross your mind? For me it happens all the time. It's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now. Said I wouldn't call but I've lost all control and I need you now. And I don't know how I can do without. I just need you now. Another shot of whiskey, can't stop looking at the door. Wishing you'd come sweeping in the way you did before. And I wonder if I ever cross your mind? For me it happens all the time. It's a quarter after one, I'm a little drunk and I need you now. Said I wouldn't call but I've lost all control and I need you now. And I don't know how I can do without. I just need you now. Oh, whoa Guess I'd rather hurt than feel nothing at all. It's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now. And I said I wouldn't call but I'm a little drunk and I need you now. And I don't know how I can do without. I just need you now I just need you now. Oh, baby, I need you now.

What goes up, must come down Spinning wheel got to go round Talkin' 'bout your troubles, it's a cryin' sin Ride a painted pony, let the spinning wheel spin You got no money and you, you got no home Spinning wheel, all alone Talkin' 'bout your troubles and you, you never learn Ride a painted pony, let the spinning wheel turn Did you find a directing sign on the straight and narrow highway? Would you mind a reflecting sign? Just let it shine within your mind And show you the colors that are real Someone is waiting just for you Spinning wheel spinning through Drop all your troubles by the riverside Catch a painted pony on the spinning wheel ride Ha! Someone's waiting just for you Spinning wheel spinning through Drop all your troubles by the riverside Ride a painted pony, let the spinning wheel fly

Please release me, let me go For I don't love you anymore To waste our lives would be a sin Release me and let me love again I have found a new love, dear And I will always want her near Her lips are warm while yours are cold Release me, my darling, let me go For I don't love you anymore (To waste my life would be a sin) So release me and let me love again Please release me, can't you see You'd be a fool to cling to me To live our lives would bring us pain So release me and let me love again (Let me love, let me love)

While she lays sleeping, I stay out late at night and play my songs And sometimes all the nights can be so long And it's good when I finally make it home, all alone While she lays dreaming, I try to get undressed without the light And quietly she says "how was your night?" And I come to her and say, "it was all right, " and I hold her tight And she believes in me, I'll never know just what she sees in me I told her someday, if she was my girl, I could change the world With my little songs, I was wrong But she has faith in me, and so I go on trying faithfully And who knows, maybe, on some special night, if my song is right I will find a way, find a way While she lays waiting, I stumble to the kitchen for a bite Then I see my old guitar in the night Just waiting for me like a secret friend, and there's no end While she lays crying, I fumble with a melody or two And I'm torn between the things that I should do And she says to wake her up when I am through God, her love is true And she believes in me, I'll never know just what she sees in me I told her someday if she was my girl, I could change the world With my little songs, I was wrong But she has faith in me, and so I go on trying faithfully And who knows maybe on some special night, if my song is right I will find a way

Ooooh the more I talk to you I fall in love with Everything you do Doo doo doo doo doo doo See what Im trying to say is: You make things - better And no matter what the day is, With you here - its better. Our love has changed Its not the same And the only way to say it Is say it Its better

you do me wrong but still i'm crazy about you Stay away too long and i can't do without you Every chance you get you seem to hurt me more and more But each hurt makes my love stronger than before I know flowers go through rain But how can love go through pain Ain't that peculiar A peculiar ality Ain't that peculiar baby Peculiar as can be You tell me lies that should be obvious to me I've been so much in love with you baby til i don't wanna see That things you do and say are designed to make me blue It's a dog gone shame my love for you makes all Your lies seem true But if the truth makes love last longer Why do lies make my love stronger Ain't that peculiar A peculiar ality Ain't that peculiar baby Peculiar as can be I cried so much just like a child thats lost its toy Maybe baby you think these tears i cry are tears of joy A child can cry so much until you do everything they say But unlike a child my tears don't help me to get my way I know love can last through years But how can love last through tears

A certain smile, a certain face Can lead an unsuspecting heart On a merry chase A fleeting glance can say So many lovely things Suddenly you know why my heart sings You love awhile and when love goes You try to hide the tears inside With a cheerful pose But in the hush of night Exactly like a bitter sweet refrain Comes that certain smile To haunt your heart again
15.
Kiss me, honey, honey, kiss me Thrill me, honey, honey, thrill me Don't care even if I blow my top But, honey, honey, don't stop I'd like to play a little game with you A little game especially made for two If you come close then I will show you how Closer, closer, now Kiss me, honey, honey, kiss me Thrill me, honey, honey, thrill me Don't care even if I blow my top But, honey, honey, don't stop We've never played this little game before If you relax then you'll enjoy it more Just settle down and let me teach you how Closer, closer, now Kiss me, honey, honey, kiss me Thrill me, honey, honey, thrill me Don't care even if I blow my top But, honey, honey, don't stop (But, honey, honey, don't stop) You kiss so well my lips begin to burn And I can tell I've got a lot to learn So hold me close and darling show me how Closer, closer, now Kiss me, honey, honey, kiss me Thrill me, honey, honey, thrill me Don't care even if I blow my top But, honey, honey, don't stop (Don't care even if I blow my top) But, honey, honey, don't stop (Never stop)

Girl we made it to the top We went so high we couldn't stop We climbed the ladder leading us nowhere Two of us together Building castles in the air We spun so fast we couldn't tell The gold ring from the carousel How could we know the ride would turn out bad Everything we wanted Was everything we had I miss the hungry years The once upon a time The lovely long ago We didn't have a dime Those days of me and you We lost along the way How could I be so blind Not to see the door Closing on the world I now hunger for Looking through my tears I miss the hungry years We shared our daydreams one by one Making plans was so much fun We set our goals and reached the highest star The things that we were after Were much better from afar Here we stand just me and you With everything and nothing, too It wasn't worth the price we had to pay Honey take me home Let's go back to yesterday I miss the hungry years The once upon a time The lovely long ago We didn't have a dime Those days of me and you We lost along the way How could I be so blind Not to see the door Closing on the world I know hunger for Looking through my tears I miss the hungry years I miss the hungry years

Baby tell me where'd you ever learn To fight without sayin' a word Then waltz back into my life Like it's all gonna be alright Don't you know how much it hurts When we don't talk When we don't touch When it doesn't feel like we're even in love It matters to me When I don't know what to say Don't know what to do Don't know if it really even matters to you How can I make you see It matters to me Maybe I still don't understand The distance between a woman and a man So tell me how far it is And how you can love like this 'Cause I'm not sure I can When we don't talk When we don't touch When it doesn't feel like we're even in love It matters to me When I don't know what to say Don't know what to do Don't know if it really even matters to you How can I make you see It matters to me Whoa I don't know what to say Don't know what to do Don't know if it really even matters to you How can I make you see Oh, it matters to me Oh, it matters to me It matters to me

She may be the face I can't forget A trace of pleasure or regret May be my treasure or the price I have to pay She may be the song that summer sings May be the chill that autumn brings May be a hundred different things Within the measure of a day She may be the beauty or the beast May be the famine or the feast May turn each day into a heaven Or a hell She may be the mirror of my dream A smile reflected in a stream She may not be what she may seem Inside her shell She who always seems so happy in a crowd Whose eyes can be so private and so proud No-one's allowed to see them When they cry She maybe the love that cannot hope to last May come to me from shadows of the past That I'll remember 'til The day I die She may be the reason I survive The why and wherefore I'm alive The one I'll care for through the Rough and rainy years Me I'll take her laughter and her tears And make them all my souvenirs For where she goes I've got to be The meaning of my life is she

Quién te dijo que yo me olvide de ti, que me duermo tranquilo y jamás sueño contigo? ¿que pasé de todo, quién te dijo eso? si cuando el cielo se enfurece vienes vestida de lluvia y cuando el sol desaparece llegas plateada de luna ¿quién te dijo que yo ya no pienso en ti, que es historia pasada el amor que me dabas? ¿que pasé de todo, quien te dijo eso? si cuando el viento entra los gritos reconozco tus palabras y cuando el fuego va apagándose tu cuerpo se me escapa ¿quién te dijo eso? no les creas que ya no te quiero ¡ay cuánto, cuánto te mintieron! ¿quién te dijo eso? si me queda una casa vacía si me falta un pedazo de cielo ¿ay quién te dijo eso? ¿quién te dijo que yo no luché por ti, que bajé los brazos dejando entrar al fracaso? ¿que pasé de todo, quién te dijo eso? si estoy quemándome en el hielo traicionero de tu frío si de tanto que te lloro como un loco me rio ¿quién te dijo eso? no les creas que ya no te quiero ¡ay cuánto cuánto te mintieron! ¿quién te dijo eso? si me queda casa vacía si me falta un pedazo de cielo Se me acorta la vida se me muere la esperanza ya no puedo hacer nada nada me alcanza yo solamente quisiera que el mundo no te mintiera y supieras que estoy deseperado como un pez que se ahoga en su propio mar ¿quién te dijo eso? no les creas que ya no te quiero ¡ay cuánto, cuánto te mintieron! ¿quién te dijo eso? si me queda una casa vacía si me falta un pedazo de cielo Ay quién te dijo eso?

Peace and good will towards men All the children are dreaming Of a world they can believe in At Christmas Something to hold on to Love yearns for love in return Love's the gift that keeps giving The gift that makes life worth living At Christmas Something to hold on to Something to hold on to Every boy and every girl Dreaming the same dream all over the world They long to wake up to a better day A better way That the bells ring throughout the land All the children are dreaming Everyone's a child who believes in Christmas Something to hold on to Something to hold Something to hold on to Something to hold on to Something to hold on to Something to hold on to

It's not time to make a change Just relax, take it easy You're still young, that's your fault There's so much you have to know Find a girl, settle down If you want you can marry Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy I was once like you are now, and I know that it's not easy To be calm when you've found something going on But take your time, think a lot Why, think of everything you've got For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not How can I try to explain, when I do he turns away again It's always been the same, same old story From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away I know I have to go It's not time to make a change Just sit down, take it slowly You're still young, that's your fault There's so much you have to go through Find a girl, settle down If you want you can marry Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy All the times that I cried, keeping all the things I knew inside It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it If they were right, I'd agree, but it's them they know not me Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away I know I have to go
