Father puts an ad on
the personal page The print is black and clear Saying Mary please write Please don't drop out of site Mary, we love you dear Mary, we want you here Oh, Mary, why did you disappear? Mother sits at home by the telephone Her tears won't cease to flow Praying Mary will call But there's no call at all Mary, where did you go? That's all we want to know Oh, Mary, call us and say hello Meanwhile in the city Mary looks pretty eating an ice cream cone With her childhood past She's free at last And making it on her own |
Jimmy puts an ad
on the personal page He can't believe they're through Darling, I was so blind But I'm changing my mind Mary I'll marry you Just like you want me to We'll do whatever you want to do When the ads are in and the type is set The printer makes a plate Then it goes off to press Will the ad bring success? Jimmy can hardly wait Mother is in a state They still don't know that it's much too late Mary, the escaper, picks up a paper Reads what the columns say Walking through a crowd she laughs out loud And tosses the sheet away (laughter) |

I don't know why I'm
frightened I know my way around here The cardboard trees, the painted seas, the sound here Yes a world to rediscover But I'm not in any hurry And I need a moment The whispered conversations In over-crowded hallways The atmosphere, as thrilling here as always Feel the early morning madness Feel the magic in the making Why everything's as if we never said goodbye I've spent so many mornings Just trying to resist you I'm trembling now you can't know how I've missed you Missed the fairy-tale adventures In this ever spinning playground We were young together I'm coming out of make-up The lights already burning Not long until the cameras will start turning And the early morning madness And the magic in the making Yes everything's as if we never said goodbye |
I don't want to be alone That's all in the past This world's waited long enough I've come home at last And this time will be bigger And brighter than we knew it So watch me fly we all know I can do it Could I stop my hand from shaking? Has there ever been a moment With so much to live for? The whispered conversations In over-crowded hallways So much to say not just today but always We'll have early morning madness We'll have magic in the making Yes everything's as if we never said goodbye Yes everything's as if we never said goodbye We taught the world New ways to dream |

Sing a song of sad
young men Glasses full of rye All the news is bad again Kiss your dreams goodbye All the sad young men Sitting in the bars Knowing neon nights And missing all the stars All the sad young men Drifting through the town Drinking up the night Trying not to drown All the sad young men Singing in the cold Trying to forget That they're growing old |
All the sad young men Choking on their youth Trying to be brave Running from the truth While a grimy moon watches from above All the sad young men play at making love Misbegotten moon, shine for sad young men Let your gentle light Guide them home again All the sad young men |
| If you're feeling
sad and lonely There's a service I can render Tell the one who loves you only I can be so warm and tender Call me, don't be afraid, you can call me Maybe it's late, but just call me Tell me and I'll be around When it seems your friends desert you There's somebody thinking of you I'm the one who'll never hurt you Maybe that's because I love you Call me, don't be afraid, you can call me Maybe it's late, but just call me Tell me and I'll be around Now don't forget me 'Cause if you let me I will always stay by you You gotta trust me That's how it must be There's so much that I can do If you call I'll be right with you You and I should be together Take this love I long to give you I'll be at your side forever | Call me, don't be

Fly away, fly away There's a cat in the window And he's watching all the birds go passing by He'd love to fly out the window Go where the wind goes And so would I Like that cat in the window Who keeps wishing for some wings to take a ride I'd love to glide to a rainbow Off where the clouds go dancing by And if I could fly |
You wouldn't find me hangin' around Watching the birds go by Yes, the cat in the window Has a tear in his eye I should leave today, fly away Why, oh, why should I stay? Like the cat in the window Who keeps watching the birds Go by from my window If I could fly though You won't find me Don't even try to |
|
You'll never see a dark cloud hanging 'round me Now there is only blue sky to surround me There's never been a grey day since you found me Everything I touch is turning to gold CHORUS:
So you can colour my worldwith sunshine yellow each day Oh you can colour my world with happiness all the way Just take the green from the grass and the blue from the sky up above And if you colour my world just paint it with your love Just colour my world |
Just as long as I know you're thinking of me There'll be a rainbow always up above me Since I found the one who really loves me Everything I touch is turning to gold CHORUS Sunshine yellow, orange blossom Laughing faces everywhere, yeah CHORUS Just colour my world Colour my world Oh, colour my world |

They say love goes where the stream flows Love will cross the border And if love shows us the way...maybe The desert will bloom again.
I dreamed I was in Africa
IT was only a dream
But if love goes where the stream flows |
I've seen the people searching for an answer to their pain I can still hear them praying for the rains to come again
And they're willing to learn
They say love goes where the stream flows
They say love goes where the stream flows |

When love seems to let you down When you can't turn around and run You've got to stop and face the fact That the heartaches have just begun Because you need love, you need love Keep on till you know that you've won, yeah! CHORUS:
Don't give up, don't let it get you downDon't give up, don't think of leaving town Don't give up, don't run away from it Love will be yours in the end, my friend |
When someone is on your mind And you can't find the words to say Don't put off until tomorrow, my friend What you know you've gotta do today Because you need love, you need love And in time you'll discover the way, yeah! CHORUS Instrumental bridge You know you need love, you need love Keep on till you know that you've won, yeah! CHORUS (repeat) |
|
You wander around on your own little cloud When you don't see the why or the wherefore You walk out on me when we both disagree 'Cause to reason is not what you care for I've heard it all a million times before Take off your coat, my love, and close the door CHORUS:
Don't sleep in the subway, darlin'Don't stand in the pouring rain But don't sleep in the subway, darlin' The night is long Forget your foolish pride Nothing's wrong Now you're beside me again |
You try to be smart, then you take it to heart 'Cause it hurts when your ego is deflated You don't realize that it's all compromise And the problems are so overrated Goodbye means nothing when it's all for show So why pretend you've somewhere else to go Don't sleep in the subway, darlin' Don't stand in the pouring rain But don't sleep in the subway, darlin' The night is long Forget your foolish pride Nothing's wrong Now you're beside me again CHORUS Don't sleep in the subway, darlin' Don't stand in the pouring rain But don't sleep in the subway, darlin' . . . |

When you're alone and life is making you lonely You can always go - Downtown When you've got worries, all the noise and the hurry seems to help, I know - Downtown Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city, Linger on the sidewalks where the neon signs are pretty How can you lose?

I'll be loving you
eternally With a love that's true, eternally From the start within my heart It seems I've always known The sun would shine when you were mine And mine alone I'll be loving you eternally There'll be no one new my dear, for me, no | Though the sky should fall Remember I shall always be Forever true and loving you eternally instrumental bridge Though the sky should fall Remember I shall always be Forever true and loving you Eternally |

Just hang on to your
heart And when you feel you've found The one and only one to give it to There'll be nothing you won't try to do For love You can't believe it now But one fine day you'll see That everything I say is coming true And there'll be nothing you won't try to do For love | He'll want to show you the world of his dreams And his kisses will open the doors There you will find only wonderful things And these wonderful things will be yours For love instrumental bridge Well, there'll be nothing you won't try to do For love There'll be nothing you won't try to do For love For love For love For love |
| In the blindness of
creation In a multitude of crimes Where there's no communication In a message filled with rhymes Down a green embroidered stairway Through a manhole in the wall Left to wallow in the sewers Hearing echoes down the hall Goodnight Sweet Dreams Don't you know the mighty sun is dawning Goodnight Sweet Dreams Let me wake up to the pureness of the morning Sweet dreams are gone again Stranded high upon a tower In a nonexistant town Fighting vertigo in color And there's no way to come down Someone rings an elevator And he offers you escape And you fall into a classroom Where you fail attempted hate | Goodnight Sweet Dreams Don't you know the mighty sun is dawning Goodnight Sweet Dreams Let me wake up to the pureness of the morning Sweet dreams are gone again Hearing music that was written by a giant feather pen And forgetting all the changes when I whistled it again Then I suddenly remember in the boredom of the day I was dreaming of awaking when the music slipped away Goodnight Sweet Dreams Don't you know the mighty sun is dawning Goodnight Sweet Dreams Let me wake up to the pureness of the morning Goodnight |

There's a certain sound always follows me around When you're close to me you will hear it It's the sound that lovers finally will discover When there is no other for their love CHORUS: It's my happy heart you hear Singing loud and singing clear And it's all because you're near me, my love Take my happy heart away Make me love you Make my day In your arms I want stay, Oh my love |
Feeling more and more like I've never felt before You have changed my life so completely Music fills my soul now I've lost all control now I'm not half, I'm whole now with your love It's my happy heart you hear Singing loud and singing clear And it's all because you're near me, my love Take my happy heart away Make me love you Make my day In your arms I want stay Oh my love It's my happy heart Don't you hear my happy heart Love Believe me It's my happy heart |

Here we are And aren't they all surprised? No one thought we'd make it through People looked at us and analyzed But the one thing they all missed From the moment we first kissed You filled a place in my heart Healed a space in my heart Where love had left a scar You took my future in hand Led me to a new land Who dreamed we'd get this far And here we are Here we are Just as you said we'd be Having left the storm behind Funny how things look so differently When the sky above you clears And you've seen beyond your fears | You filled a place in
my heart Filled a space in my heart Where love had left a scar And you showed me sights in the skies Blazing lights in the skies Where no one saw a star And here we are You showed me sights in the skies Blazing lights in the skies Where no one saw a star And here we are Standing tall Hand in hand after all After all we've been through Who dreamed we'd get this far And here we are Here we are Here We Are Here We Are, Here We Are |
|
You're the only one that I rely on A shoulder there for me to cry on And the hours alone that I'm without you All I ever do is think about you No one knows that you're so understanding Even though my love is so demanding Everytime you look at me Then you'll know we'll both agree That no other love could be CHORUS: I couldn't live without your love Now I know you're really mine I gotta have you all the time Didn't like you much when I first met you But somehow I couldn't quite forget you Said you didn't want a friend or lover That your life was happy with another |
But as time went by my love grew stronger Knew that I just couldn't wait any longer For I couldn't let you go And I had to tell you so That I loved you, then you'd know CHORUS instrumental bridge Now the tears are gone and I'm not cryin' When you say you love me you're not lyin' So when people want to stare I know I don't really care Just as long as you are there CHORUS |
|
Every day when the work is behind you And the shop and the store put the lock on the door Just get away where your worries won't find you If you like, well I'll tell you more Don't let the day get the better of you When the evening comes there's so much to do You better put on your best and wear a smile Just come along with me awhile - 'Cause I tell you - CHORUS: I know a place where the music is fine And the lights are always low I know a place where we can go At the door there's a man who will greet you Then you go downstairs to some tables and chairs Soon I'm sure you'll be tappin' your feet Because the beat is the greatest there |
All around there are girls and boys It's a swingin' place - A cellar full of noise It's got an atmosphere of its own somehow You gotta come along right now - 'Cause I tell you - CHORUS instrumental bridge Well, all around there are girls and boys It's a swingin' place - A cellar full of noise It's got an atmosphere of its own somehow You gotta come along right now 'Cause I tell you - CHORUS I know a place where we can go I know a place where the lights are low You're gonna love this place I know I know a place where we can go |
| The clock will tick
away the hours one by one And then the time will come when all the waiting's done The time when you return and find me here and run staight To my waiting arms If it takes forever I will wait for you For a thousand summers I will wait for you | Till you're back
beside me Till I'm holding you Till I hear you sigh here in my arms Anywhere you wander Anywhere you go Every day, remember how I love you so In your heart, believe What in my heart I know That forever more I'll wait for you |
|
There's a certain sound always follows me around When you're close to me you will hear it It's the sound that lovers finally will discover When there is no other for their love It's my happy heart you hear Singing loud and singing clear And it's all because you're near me, my love Take my happy heart away Make me love you Make my day In your arms I want stay, Oh my love Feeling more and more like I've never felt before You have changed my life so completely |
Music fills my soul now I've lost all control now I'm not half, I'm whole now with your love It's my happy heart you hear Singing loud and singing clear And it's all because you're near me, my love Take my happy heart away Make me love you Make my day In your arms I want stay Oh my love It's my happy heart Don't you hear my happy heart Love Believe me It's my happy heart |
| When I was young and
simple I don't recall the date I met a handsome captain of the guard He visited my chambers one evening rather late In tandem with a husky Saint Bernard At first I was astonished And tears came to my eyes But, later when I asked him to resume He said, to my surprise My dear, it isn't wise Where love is concerned one must freshen the bloom Once, yes, once for a lark Twice, though, loses the spark One must never deny it But after you try it you vary the diet Said my handsome young guard Yes, I know, but it's hard But no matter how nice I never do anything twice La la da da de-ah da dum I think about the baron Who came at my command And proffered me a riding crop and chains The evening that we shared Was meticulously planned He took the most extraordinary pains He trembled with excitement His cheeks were quite aglow And afterword he cried to me, encore! He pleaded with me so to have another go I murmured carressingly, whatever for? Once, yes, once for a lark Twice, though, loses the spark Once, yes, once is delicious But twice would be vicious Or just repetitious | Someone's bound to be scarred Yes, I know that it's hard But, no matter the price I never do anything twice La la la la la la la la la la And then there was the abbot Who worshipped at my feet Who dressed me in a wimple and in veils He made a proposition which I found rather sweet And handed me a hammer and some nails In time we lay contented And he began again By fingering the beads around our waists I whispered to him then We'll have to say amen For I had developed more catholic tastes Once, yes, once for a lark Twice, though, loses the spark As I said to the abbot I'll get in the habit, but not in the habit You've my highest regard And I know that it's hard Still, no matter the price I'd never do anything twice Once, yes, once can be nice Love requires some spice If you've something in view Or something to do, totally new I'll be there in a trice But I never do anything twice Except . . . No I never do anything twice |
| I wanna see morning
with him, yeah I wanna see morning with him No, I'm not made of stone And I'm not about to send him home, oh no Tonight we're gonna see the sunshine And I'm gonna love him Though I'll fight him for a little while Then I'll smile as he wins my heart away Lips pressed on lips until the break of day And I, I'll be so happy when I Wake up and see morning with him I'm gonna see morning with him | Tonight we're gonna see the sunshine How I'm gonna love him But I'll fight him for a little while Then I'll smile as he wins my heart away Lips pressed on lips until the break of day And I, I won't be happy 'til I Wake up and see morning with him I'm gonna see morning with him Ooh, in the morning with him |
|
I will follow him follow him wherever he may go There isn't an ocean too deep A mountain so high it can keep me away I must follow him ever since he touched my hand I knew That near him I always must be And nothing can keep him from me He is my destiny I love him, I love him, I love him And where he goes I'll follow, forever and ever And side by side together I'll be with my true love And share a thousand sunsets, together, beside him |
I will follow him follow him wherever he may go There isn't an ocean too deep A mountain so high it can keep, keep me away Away from my love I love him, I love him, I love him And where he goes I'll follow, forever and ever And side by side together I'll be with my true love And share a thousand sunsets, together, beside him I will follow him follow him wherever he may go There isn't an ocean too deep A mountain so high it can keep, keep me away Away from my love |
| Look at me I can see there's no love in your eyes Though you try to pretend Look at me Aw, there's no need to explain how you're feeling I guess it's the end And when you go I will try not to cry as you kiss me goodbye You'll never know How much I'll miss you so If ever you're lonely If ever you're blue If ever you need me I'm waiting for you And though your love has gone You're still the only one So if ever you're lonely I'll run straight to you Now as you walk away Remember what I say If ever you're lonely I'm lonely like you In my heart For some time I have known deep inside You have somebody new But my heart Will still want you forever Although it is broken in two | You're not to blame No, go be happy with her And if one night you whisper my name Come to my arms again If ever you're lonely If ever you're blue If ever you need me I'm waiting for you And though your love has gone You're still the only one So if you're lonely I'll run straight to you, yeah Now as you walk away Remember what I say If ever you're lonely I'm lonely like you If ever you're lonely darling Da da de da ah oh Da da de da ah oh If ever you're lonely I'll run straight to you |
| Just say
goodbye And let me walk away There's nothing more to say When love like ours can die Just say goodbye Forget the life we knew The memories of you Will only make me cry Just say goodbye To leave me on my own To face the world alone Yet never knowing why Just say goodbye And though I don't know how I couldn't hate you now No matter how I tried Just say goodbye It's sad that you must go You loved me once I know This much I can't deny | Oh, my love My only love Where did we go wrong Oh, my love My only love How can I Oh, how can I go on Just say goodbye It's sad that you must go You loved me once I know This much I can't deny Just say goodbye And please don't turn around Another love you've found Now, spread your wings and fly Just say goodbye, yeah yeah Just say goodbye Just say goodbye, yeah Just say goodbye |

We choose it, win or lose it Love is never quite the same I love you, now I've lost you Don't feel bad, you're not to blame So kiss me goodbye and I'll try not to cry All the tears in the world won't change your mind There's someone new and she's waiting for you Soon your heart will be leaving me behind Linger awhile, then I'll go with a smile Like a friend who just happened to call For the last time pretend your are mine My darling, kiss me goodbye |
I know now, I must go now Though my heart wants me to stay That girl is your tomorrow I belong to yesterday So kiss me goodbye and I'll try not to cry All the tears in the world won't change your mind There's someone new and she's waiting for you Soon your heart will be leaving me behind Linger awhile, then I'll go with a smile Like a friend who just happened to call For the last time pretend your are mine My darling, kiss me goodbye My darling, kiss me goodbye |
| I bless the day I
found you I want to stay around you And so I beg you Let it be me Don't take this heaven from one If you must cling to someone Now and forever Let it be me Each time we meet love I find complete love Without your sweet love What would life be | So
never leave me lonely Tell me you'll love me only And that you'll always Let it be me And that you'll always Let it be me |
| One morning while I was out shopping, though you'll find it hard to believe, a little blue man came out of the crowd and timidly tugged at my sleeve. Chorus I wuv you, I wuv you, said the little blue man, I wuv you, I wuv you to bits, I wuv you, he loved me, said the little blue man, and scared me out of my wits. I hurried back to my apartment, I rushed in and I closed the door, but there on my desk stood the little blue man, who started to tell me once more. Chorus...I wuv you |
For weeks after that I was haunted,
though no one could see him but me, right by my side was the little blue man, wherever I happened to be. Chorus....I wuv you One evening in wild desperation, I rushed to a rooftop in town and over the side pushed the little blue man, who sang to me on the way down, I wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuvvvvv yoooooooooo. I whispered thank goodness that's over, I smiled as I hurried outside, but there on the street stood the little blue man, who said, with a tear in his eye, "I don't wuv you any more." |
| Love is here And its music's filling the air Love is here You can feel it everywhere, yeah Beautiful thing to happen Heavenly thing to happen Didn't you feel it happen Didn't you feel it happen Oh, love is here There are flowers blooming in space Love is here And the world's a beautiful place Marvelous thing to happen Fabulous thing to happen Tell me you felt it happen Didn't you feel it happen | Oh,
let this wonderful thing surround us Reach out and touch everyone around us Love is here And its music's filling the air Love is here You can feel it everywhere instrumental bridge Ooh, didn't you feel it happen Didn't you feel it happen Oh, Love is here Oh, love is here Yes, love is here |
| Love is a long, long
journey And on a long, long journey There are things that happen We just can't foresee So when you say forever Although you mean forever There's a voice inside me Saying this can't be But when you hold my hand You know I feel so grand I mean I feel that we could beat this mystery And I believe with all my heart I believe, oh yes, I believe But love is a long, long journey And on a long, long journey There are things that happen We just can't foresee | So
when you say forever Although you mean forever There's this voice inside me Saying this can't be When you say forever Although you mean forever There's this voice inside me Saying this can't be But when you say that it's true I start believing you And then the spell, you see Begins to work on me And I believe With all my my heart I believe Oh yes, I believe |
|
CHORUS: My love is warmer than the warmest sunshine Softer than a sigh My love is deeper than the deepest ocean Wider than the sky My love is brighter than the brightest star That shines every night above And there is nothing in this world That can ever change my love Something happened to my heart the day that I met you Something that I never felt before You are always on my mind no matter what I do And every day it seems I want you more |
CHORUS Once I thought that love was meant for anyone else but me Once I thought you'd never come my way Now it only goes to show how wrong we all can be For now I have to tell you every day CHORUS (repeat) |
| Why does all the
world pass me by Why does no one hear when I cry Why do lonely arms long for you Why can't I believe that it's true Now that you've gone, gone, gone away Gone, gone, gone away Why is there a dawn but no day Why do all the stars fade away Why are shadows hiding the sun Why do I have nowhere to run Now that you've gone, gone, gone away Gone, gone, gone away Where are all the dreams that we knew Whoever said dreams all come true Where are they now | Why must life go on
anymore Why do I want you more and more Why do I go on asking why When you'll be my love till I die Why have you gone, gone, gone away Gone, gone, gone away Where are all the dreams that we knew Whoever said dreams all come true Where are they now Why must life go on anymore Why do I want you more and more Why do I go on asking why When you'll be my love till I die Why have you gone, gone, gone away Gone, gone, gone away From me? |
| One more
sunrise One more day to get through One more sunrise One more day without you And those lips that I knew could never be true One more sunrise Now the heartaches begin Wandering, wandering Through the places we've been Hoping that I can keep my sunnyside grin Though our love is dead and gone In my heart it still lives on and on Feel like some poor dying swan Tired of flyin', tryin' Day by day I'm dying | One more sunrise One more day we're apart One more sunrise One more daybreak for a breaking heart Instrumental bridge Hoping that I can keep my sunnyside grin Though our love is dead and gone In my heart it still lives on and on I feel like some poor dying swan Tired of flyin', tryin' Day by day I'm dying One more sunrise One more day we're apart One more sunrise One more daybreak for a breaking heart One more daybreak for a breaking heart One more daybreak for a breaking heart |

Life is never what it seems We're always searching in our dreams To find that little castle in the air When worry starts to cloud the mind It's hard to leave it all behind And just pretend you haven't got a care There's someone else in your imagination You wish that you were standing in their shoes You'd change your life without much hesitation But would you if you really had to choose? So, don't look around, get your feet on the ground It's much better by far to be just who your are Chorus: The other man's grass is always greener The sun shines brighter on the other side The other man's grass is always greener Some are lucky, some are not Just be thankful for what you've got |
Many times it seems to me There's someone else I'd rather be Living in a world of make-believe To stay in bed till nearly three With nothing there to worry me Would seem to be the life I might achieve But deep inside I know I'm really lucky With happiness I've never known before And just as long as you are there beside me I know that I could ask for nothing more And living can start with the love in your heart So with you all the time All the treasures I've longed for are mine The other man's grass is always greener The sun shines brighter on the other side The other man's grass is always greener Some are lucky, some are not But, I'm so thankful for what I've got (Repeat chorus) |
| Blessed are the meek
they say They shall win where others lose But when man is forced to slay He is never asked to choose He must fight for his country Fight for what he thinks is right He'll defend his wife and children On the path of glory Red or yellow, white or brown All alike, one thought in mind Who will wear the victor's crown Never mind the lame and blind In the pride of their country Good will triumph in the end Evil will be brought to justice On the path of glory | Big or little, fat or thin All are heroes in the end Unforgivable the sin To submit, they don't pretend They will die for their country They will die for you and me Amid the pungent smell of death That's on the path of glory Why should man be forced to kill Why should they be made to die Shattered on some peaceful hill Torn and bleeding where they lie Far away from their country Ask yourself the question now Why should they be forced to set out On the path of glory? |
| When I think about
all I've done and how little I had When I first started out to make good And the times were so bad All I owned I could hold In one battered old secondhand case As I traveled each mile A professional smile on my face Going tired and wet To yet one more forgettable place On with the show On with the show, I don't know why But it's so And on with the show On and on and on with the show I was never a child 'cause when you're poor You've got to work like a man For to eat you must earn The rest you learn when you can Every day, every night Is a fight when you're hungry and broke On the road, play a part Sing a song, tap a dance, tell a joke Break your heart for a smile For a crumb An occasional smoke | On With the show On with the show, I don't know why But it's so And on with the show On and on and on with the show Then one night, there you are Your name's up there And you're a star Last week the audience ignored you Now they adore you They're waiting for you On and on and on On with the show On with the show, I don't know why But it's so And on with the show On and on and on On with the show On and on and on With the show |

| How many times do
you ask yourself "What can I do to bring about a change?" It's too hard a task yourself The world's too large to rearrange But if each one played a part, the greater heart Would rise up and take wing, and accomplish most anything Seize the day, life is made of precious moments Don't delay and waste the chance each one of us is given If you stray, remember you can always be redriven Seize the day, for time is slipping away How many times do you tell yourself That you can make a difference if you try Only to sell yourself An inexpensive alibi It's easy to equivocate, procrastinate And never take a stand, while the problems grow out of hand0. Seize the day, life is made of precious moments Don't delay and waste the chance each one of us is given If you stray, remember you can always be redriven Seize the day, for time is slipping... Away so fast | Open your eyes and a year has
passed And in that year what have you done? The war is waiting to be won but How many times do you hide yourself And fail to help another soul to live? If only you'd pride yourself In the power of the positive It's common just to be confined in the daily grind Forgetting that a dream may be closer than it may seem Seize the day, life is made of precious moments Don't delay and waste the chance each one of us is given If you stray, remember you can always be redriven Seize the day, seize the day, for time is slipping away Let us pray each one of us sees the day When lives won't slip away |

It's a sign of the times That your love for me is getting so much stronger It's a sign of the times And I know that I won't have to wait much longer You've changed a lot somehow from the one I used to know-oh-oh For when you hold me now ya' feel like you never wanna to let me go It's a sign of the times That you call me up whenever you feel lonely It's a sign of the times That you tell your friends that I'm your one and only I'll never understand the way you treated me-ee-ee But when I hold your hand I know you couldn't be the way you used to be Maybe my lucky star at last decided to shine Maybe somebody knows how long I've waited to make you mine, mm-mm instrumental bridge |

He is now to be among you at the calling of your hearts Rest assured this troubadour is acting on His part The union of your spirits here has caused Him to remain For whenever two or more of you are gathered in His name There is Love, there is Love Well, a man shall leave his mother and a woman leave her home They shall travel on to where the two shall be as one As it was in the beginning is now and til the end Woman draws her life from man and gives it back again There is Love, there is Love |
Well, there must have been a reason for becoming man and wife Is it love that brings it here, or Love that brings you life? (Is it law that brings you here, or Love that gives you life?) For if Loving is the answer, then who's the giving for? Do you believe in something that you've never seen before? Oh, there is Love, Oh, there's Love. Oh, the marriage (union) of your spirits here has caused Him to remain For whenever two or more of you are gathered in His name There is Love, there is Love. |

The buildings reach up to the sky The traffic thunders on the busy street Pavement slips beneath my feet I walk alone and wonder "Who am I?" I close my eyes and I can fly And I escape from all this worldly strife Restricted by routine of life But still I can't discover "Who am I?" I long to wake up in the morning and find everything has changed And all the people that I meet don't wear a frown But every day is just the same I'm chasing rainbows in the rain All the dreams that I believe in let me down |
Maybe I'm reaching far too high For I have something else entirely free The love of someone close to me Unfettered by the world that hurries by To question such good fortune, who am I? I long to wake up in the morning and find everything has changed And all the people that I meet don't wear a frown But every day is just the same I'm chasing rainbows in the rain All the dreams that I believe in let me down Maybe I'm reaching far too high For I have something else entirely free The love of someone close to me Unfettered by the world that hurries by To question such good fortune, "Who am I?" |

When I was child,
not so long ago Life was full of make believe, toys upon the floor Living in a world, everything was new Lollipops and rainbows, picture books and glue And summer days were long and the skies were always blue When nothing seemed to matter then, not even you Growing old was far away, so many things to do When I was a child the days went by I didn't count them all, did you? Then the time went on, I grew up so fast Then I found my young girl's dream coming true at last For I fell in love I fell in love with you And I'm just as happy now Childhood days are through |
When I see our children's toys upon
the floor I still remember when I was a child once more Nothing really changes now For life goes on the same 'Cause when I was a child the only difference is that it's a bigger game than when I was a child When I see our children's toys upon the floor I still remember when I was a child once more Nothing really changes now For life goes on the same 'Cause when I was a child the only difference is that it's a bigger game than when I was a child |

Hey, don't you think it's time that we had a party Wouldn't you agree we all need a good time We could have the neighbors in for a drink and lay a little food on too You could ask the Joneses I could ask the Thompsons Stuart from the store and don't forget the Johnsons And what about the man who stands on the corner He must have a tale or two to tell Wouldn't it be nice to buy out the Fillmore and fill it with our friends and then if there's still more room We could ask the folks from the City To come along and feel at home And if the ragged gypsy danced with the soldier Think of all the things the soldier could learn And think of all the things the doctor could tell the priest There's a story to be told Listen Sounds so new, in truth, its old Listen Hey, maybe we should give an open invitation We could have a friend from every single nation We could ask the friends to bring along a friend Anyone who wants to come will be welcome Anyone who wants to make with the music is going to be allowed to play what he wants to Anyone who wants to sing us a song can bring us a song and sing it if he wants to |
Maybe we could hear the voices of China Sharing a harmony with Carolina Africa could take the bass with the Asians Melody promotes our east-west relations Russia and the USA would be singing Everybody's bells and hearts would be ringing We could get the song to go on forever If everybody in the world sang together There's a meaning oh so clear Listen Notes as old as life is dear Listen Maybe we could hear the voices of China Sharing a harmony with Carolina Africa could take the bass with the Asians Melody promotes our east-west relations Russia and the USA would be singing Everybody's bells and hearts would be ringing We could get the song to go on forever If everybody in the world sang together, hey Oh we could make such sweet music together If you come with your heart in your hand (repeat & fade) |

Tell me it's not
true Say it's just a story Something on the news Tell me it's not true Though it's here before me And say it's just a dream Say it's just a scene From an old movie of years ago From an old movie with Marilyn Monroe Say it's just some clowns Two players in the limelight Bring the curtain down Say it's just two clowns Who couldn't get their lines right And say it's just a show on the radio That we can turn over and start again That we can turn over, it's only a game, |
Won't you tell me it's not true Say I only dreamed it Morning will come soon And say it's just pretend Say it's just the end Of an old movie from years ago From an old movie with Marilyn Monroe Tell me, won't you tell me it's not true Say you didn't mean it Say it's just pretend Say it's just the end of an old movie from years ago From an old movie with Marilyn Monroe Say it's just a story Something on the news |

In the shoemaker's shop this refrain would never stop As he tapped away, working all the day (At his bench, there was he, just as busy as a bee) Little time to lose for the boots and shoes But his heart went "pop" inside the little shop When a lovely girl set 'em all a-whirl She had come to choose some pretty dancing shoes And he heard her say in a charming way Shoes to set my feet a-dancing, dancing Dancing, dancing all the day Shoes to set my feet a-dancing, dancing Dancing all my cares away (Then he tapped and he stitched for his fingers were bewitched) And he sewed a dream into every seam (Making shoes, oh, so neat just like magic on her feet) And he hoped she'd know that he loved her so But she danced, danced, danced as though she were entranced Like a spinning top all around the shop On her dainty feet she whirled into the street And he heard her say as she danced away Shoes to set my feet a-dancing, dancing Dancing all my cares away Shoes to set my feet a-dancing, dancing Dancing all my cares away |
