(sung by Sarah Brightman and Jose Cura)

 Sarah:
There for me, every time I've been away
Will you be there for me, thinking of me ev'ry day
Are you my destiny, words I never dared to say
Will you be there for me?

Just think of you and me, we could never toe the line
It's such a mystery just to hear you say you're mine
And while you're close to me, so close to me
Just hold me


José:
Se non sei con me, mi sembra grigia la città
Camminando solo i piccoli vedo giocar
Volti e voci
del passato che non ricordavo più
Mi chiedono

Both:
Are you still there for me?
Forse qualche giorno poi
Il mondo capirá che non molto [può] capitar
E tu ci sei per me senti cosa dicono
But you're just there for me

Sarah:
And while you're close to me, so close to me
Just hold me

José:
Dimmi quanto tempo ancora resterai con me
Dimmi quante cose mi nascondi dentro te
Molti sogni abbiamo che alfin potremmo vivere
Io spero che

Both:
You are still there for me?
Forse qualche giorno poi
Il mondo capirá che non molto [può] capitar
E tu ci sei per me senti cosa dicono
But you're just there for me

Sarah:
There for me

José:
There for me

Sarah:
There for me

“When You Say You Love Me”

Like the sound of silence calling,
I hear your voice and suddenly
I'm falling, lost in a dream.
Like the echoes of our souls are meeting,
You say those words and my heart stops beating.
I wonder what it means.
What could it be that comes over me?
At times I can't move.
At times I can hardly breath.

When you say you love me
The world goes still, so still inside and
When you say you love me
For a moment, there's no one else alive

You're the one I've always thought of.
I don't know how, but I feel sheltered in your love.
You're where I belong.
And when you're with me if I close my eyes,
There are times I swear I feel like I can fly
For a moment in time.
Somewhere between the Heavens and Earth ,
And frozen in time, Oh when you say those words.

When you say you love me
The world goes still, so still inside and
When you say you love me
For a moment, there's no one else alive

[bridge:]
And this journey that we're on.
How far we've come and I celebrate every moment.
And when you say you love me,
That's all you have to say.
I'll always feel this way.

When you say you love me
The world goes still, so still inside and
When you say you love me
In that moment,I know why I'm alive

When you say you love me.
When you say you love me.
Do you know how I love you?

“Broken Vow”.
(
I don’t know if this song fits
Gus and Felicity or Felicity and Stuart better.)

Tell me his name
I want to know
The way he looks
And where you go
I need to see his face
I need to understand
Why you and I came to an end

Tell me again
I want to hear
Who broke my faith in all these years
Who lays with you at night
When I'm here all alone
Remembering when I was your own

[Chorus:]
I let you go
I let you fly
Why do I keep on asking why
I let you go
Now that I found
A way to keep somehow
More than a broken vow

Tell me the words I never said
Show me the tears you never shed
Give me the touch
That one you promised to be mine
Or has it vanished for all time

[Chorus]

I close my eyes
And dream of you and I
And then I realize
There's more to love than only bitterness and lies
I close my eyes

I'd give away my soul
To hold you once again
And never let this promise end

[Modified Chorus:]
I let you go
I
let you fly
Now that I know I’m asking why
I let you go
Now
that I found
A way to keep somehow
More than a broken vow

How can I tell you that I love you... Cat Stevens

How can I tell you that I love you, I love you
But I can't think of right words to say
I long to tell you that I'm always thinking of you
I'm always thinking of you, but my words
Just blow away, just blow away
It always ends up to one thing, honey
And I can't think of right words to say

Wherever I am boy, I'm always walking with you
I'm always walking with you, but I look and you're not there
Whoever I'm with, I'm always, always talking to you
I'm always talking to you, and I'm sad that
You can't hear, sad that you can't hear
It always ends up to one thing, honey,
When I look and you're not there

I need to know you, need to feel my arms around you
Feel my arms around you, like a sea around a shore
And - each night and day I pray, in hope
That I might find you, in hope that I might
Find you, because heart's can do no more

It always ends up to one thing honey, still I kneel upon the floor
How can I tell you that I love you, I love you
But I can't think of right words to say
I long to tell you that I'm always thinking of you
I'm always thinking of you....
It always ends up to one thing honey
And I can't think of right words to say

 I Don't Love You Much Do I ?
Album: Boats to Build


I don’t love you much do I
Just more than human tongue can tell and that's all
I don’t love you much do I
Remember how I kissed you in the hall

Chorus

See how it sparkles in my eyes
I couldn’t hide it if I tried- that’s right
I don’t love you much do I
Just more than anything else in this whole world
I don’t love you much do I
Just more than all the stars in the sky
I don’t love you much do I
I think you hung the moon and that’s alright

Chorus

I don’t love you much do I
You can feel it all the way across the room
I don’t love you much do I
Like the spring doesn’t make the flowers bloom
I don’t love you much do I
I'd follow you to hell and back again
I don’t love you much do I
Just watch me light up when you walk in

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What are you doing the rest of your life?

What are you doing the rest of your life?
North and south and east and west of your life?
I have only one request of your life
That you spend it all with me.

All the seasons and the times of your days.
All the nickels and the dimes of your days.
Let the reasons and the rhymes of your days.

All begin and end with me.
I want to see your face,
In every kind of light,
In fields of gold and
Forests of the night;

And when you stand before
The candles on a cake.
Oh let me be the one to hear
The silent wish you make.

Those tomorrows waiting deep in your eyes
In the world of love you keep in your eyes,
Ill awaken whats asleep in your eyes,
It may take a kiss or two..
Through all of my life..

Summer, winter, spring and fall of my life,
All I ever will recall of my life
Is all of my life with you.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Heartaches

Patsy Cline

Heartaches, heartaches,
My loving you meant only heartaches.
Your kiss was such a sacred thing to me,
I can't believe it's just a burning memory.

Heartaches, heartaches,
What does it matter how my heart breaks?
I should be happy with some one new.
But my heart aches, and my heart breaks,
And my heart aches for you.

I Can't Help Falling in Love

(words & music by george weiss - hugo peretti - luigi creatore)

Wise men say only fools rush in
But I can’t help falling in love with you
Shall I stay
Would it be a sin
If I can’t help falling in love with you

Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can’t help falling in love with you

Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can’t help falling in love with you
For I can’t help falling in love with you

"As Time Goes By"

music and words by Herman Hupfeld

[This day and age we're living in
Gives cause for apprehension
With speed and new invention
And things like fourth dimension.

Yet we get a trifle weary
With Mr. Einstein's theory.
So we must get down to earth at times
Relax relieve the tension

And no matter what the progress
Or what may yet be proved
The simple facts of life are such
They cannot be removed.]

You must remember this
A kiss is just a kiss, a sigh is just a sigh.
The fundamental things apply
As time goes by.

And when two lovers woo
They still say, "I love you."
On that you can rely
No matter what the future brings
As time goes by.

Moonlight and love songs
Never out of date.
Hearts full of passion
Jealousy and hate.
Woman needs man
And man must have his mate
That no one can deny.

It's still the same old story
A fight for love and glory
A case of do or die.
The world will always welcome lovers
As time goes by.

Oh yes, the world will always welcome lovers

  "At Last"
by Etta James
 
   Reminds me of Gus & Felicity.
 
                                                                                                        At last, my love has come along,
                                                                                                        My lonely days are over,
                                                                                                        And life is like a song,


                                                                                                       Ohhh at last
                                                                                                       The stars above are blue
                                                                                                      My heart was wrapped up in clover,
                                                                                                      The night I looked at you

                                                                                                      I found a dream that I could speak to,
                                                                                                     A dream that I, can call my own,
                                                                                                     I found a thrill, to press my cheek to,
                                                                                                     A thrill that I, have never known,

                                                                                                     Ohhh you smile, you smile
                                                                                                     And then the spell was cast
                                                                                                     And here we are in heaven,
                                                                                                     for you are mine, at last!

I Want to Know what love is.
Foreigner

I gotta take a little time
A little time to think things over
I better read between the lines
In case I need it when I'm older

Now this mountain I must climb
Feels like a world upon my shoulders
I through the clouds I see love shine
It keeps me warm as life grows colder

In my life there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
Can't stop now, I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life

I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me

I'm gonna take a little time
A little time to look around me
I've got nowhere left to hide
It looks like love has finally found me

In my life there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
I can't stop now, I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life

I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me

I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
And I wanna feel, I want to feel what love is
And I know, I know you can show me

Let's talk about love
I wanna know what love is, the love that you feel inside
I want you to show me, and I'm feeling so much love
I wanna feel what love is, no, you just cannot hide
I know you can show me, yeah

I wanna know what love is, let's talk about love
I want you to show me, I wanna feel it too
I wanna feel what love is, I want to feel it too
And I know and I know, I know you can show me
Show me love is real, yeah
I wanna know what love is...

Nature Boy
-Words and Music by Eden Ahbez

There was a boy
A very strange enchanted boy
They say he wandered very far, very far
Over land and sea
A little shy and sad of eye
But very wise was he

And then one day
A magic day he passed my way
And while we spoke of many things
Fools and kings
This he said to me
"The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return"


"The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Perhaps Love

Perhaps love is like a resting place
A shelter from the storm
It exists to give you comfort
It is there to keep you warm
And in those times of trouble
When you are most alone
The memory of love will bring you home

Perhaps love is like a window
Perhaps an open door
It invites you to come closer
It wants to show you more
And even if you lose yourself
And don`t know what to do
The memory of love will see you through

Oh, love to some is like a cloud
To some as strong as steel
For some a way of living
For some a way to feel
And some say love is holding on
And some say letting go
And some say love is everything
And some say they don`t know

Perhaps love is like the ocean
Full of conflict, full of Pain
Like a fire when it`s cold outside
Or thunder when it rains
If I should live forever
And all my dreams come true
My memories of love will be of you

And some say love is holding on
And some say letting go
And some say love is everything
And some say they don`t know

Perhaps love is like the ocean
Full of conflict, full of Pain
Like a fire when it`s cold outside
Or thunder when it rains
If I should live forever
And all my dreams come true
My memories of love will be of you
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`

ANNIE'S SONG (John Denver)

You fill up me senses like a night in a forest
Like the mountains in springtime, like a walk in the rain
Like a storm in the desert, like a sleepy blue ocean
You fill up my senses come fill me again.

Come let me love you, let me give my life to you
Let me drown in your laughter, let me die in your arms
Let me lay down beside you, let me always be with you
Come let me love you, come love me again.

...Let me give my life to you
Come let me love you, come love me again.

You fill up my senses like a night in a forest
Like the mountains in springtime, like a walk in the rain
Like a storm in the desert, like a sleepy blue ocean
You fill up my senses, come fill me again.

I REALLY DON'T WANT TO KNOW
(Don Robertson - Howard Barnes)

How many arms have held you
and hated to let you go
How many how many I wonder
but I really don't want to know
How many lips have kissed you
and set your soul aglow
How many how many I wonder
oh I really don't want to know
So always make me wonder
always make me guess
And even if I ask you
sweetheart don't confess
Yes just let it remain your secret
cause darling I love you so
And it's no wonder no wonder I wonder
but I really don't want to know
Honey I really don't want to know

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Close to You
sung by, Karen Carpenter.

Why do birds suddenly appear,
every time you are near?
Just like me,they long to be close to you.

Why do stars fall down from the sky,
every time you walk by?
Just like me,  they long to be close to you.

On the day that you were born,
 the angels got together and decided to
create a dream come true.
So, they sprinkled moon dust in your hair,
with gold and starlight in your eyes of green.

That is why all the girls in town
 follow you all around;
Just like me,  they long to be close to you...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

YOU DON'T KNOW ME
(Cindy Walker - Eddy Arnold)

You give your hand to me
and then you say hello

And I can hardly speak
my heart is beating so

And anyone can tell you think you know me well
but you don't know me

No you don't know the one who dreams of you each night
Longs to kiss your lips and longs to hold you tight
To you I'm just a friend
that's all I've ever been you don't know me

I never knew the art of making love
 though my heart aches with love for you

Afraid and shy I let my chance go by
 the chance you might have loved me too

You give your hand to me
and then you say goodbye

I watch you walk away
through these tear dimmed eyes

You'll never never know the one who loves you so
no you don't know me

You give your hand to me...


I Only Have Eyes for You

My love must be a kind of blind love
I can’t see anyone but you
And dear, I wonder if you find love
An optical illusion, too?

Are the stars out tonight?
I don’t know if it’s cloudy or bright
’cause I only have eyes for you, dear
The moon may be high
But I can’t see a thing in the sky
’cause I only have eyes for you.

I don’t know if we’re in a garden
Or on a crowded avenue
You are here, so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
And I only have eyes for you

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      Truly Madly Deeply
    by Savage Garden

I’ll be your dream, I’ll be your wish,
I’ll be your fantasy
I’ll be your hope, I’ll be your love,
Be everything that you need

‘Cause I'm counting on a
New beginning, a reason for living,
A deeper meaning, yeah

1 want 2 stand with you 0n  a mountain
I want 2 bathe with you in the sea
I want 2 lay like this 4-ever
Until the sky falls down on me

And when the stars we shining brightly in the velvet sky
I’ll make a wish, send it to heaven then make you want to cry
The tears of joy for all the pleasure in the certainty
That we're surrounded by the comfort and protection
Of the highest powers, in lonely hours, the tears devour you

I want 2 stand with you on a mountain

Truly, madly, deeply do
I will be strong, I will be faithful,
'Cause I'm counting on a
New beginning, a reason for living,
A deeper meaning, yeah

I want 2 stand with you on a mountain
I want 2 bathe with you in the sea
I want 2 lay like this 4-ever
Until the sky falls down on me



(adapted from Mack Sennett's 500,000 photoplay "Mickey" and respectfully dedicated to Miss Mabel Normand.
Music by Neil Moret/Words by Harry Williams ... although this "Mickey" was probably female ... it is a cute song ..)

"Mickey"
"Oh what a shame they gave you the name of Mickey
Where is the rose that grows in repose like you
Lucky the moss and the violet sweet,
When they were trod by your bare little feet,
There in the morning dew.
How can you blame me when I pine,
Dearie, to change your name to mine?

Refrain:
Mickey, pretty Mickey
With your hair of raven hue;
In your smiling so beguiling
There's a bit of Killarney,
bit of the Blarney, too.
Childhood in the wild-wood,
Like a mountain flow'r you grew;
Pretty Mickey, pretty Mickey,
Can you blame anyone for falling in love with you?

You had a friend that used to defend and love you
He was a dog, a mutt of a dog, it's true
He used to follow you ev'ry-where,
Look in your eyes with a lovable stare,
He was a lucky old dog to be there,
And he believed it too.
This is a promise true from me,
"I'll be as faithful to you as he."

Refrain:
Mickey, pretty Mickey
With your hair of raven hue;
In your smiling so beguiling
There's a bit of Killarney,
bit of the Blarney, too.
Childhood in the wild-wood,
Like a mountain flow'r you grew;
Pretty Mickey, pretty Mickey,
Can you blame anyone for falling in love with you!"



.Kirkland Lake Song
(Song about Mickey's hometown)

      Words & Music by Jack Rid.

         There's a town way up north of Cobalt.
That is world famous for it's gold,
               The spirit there is just the same, I'll tell you,
              As when men discovered it in days of old.

Chorus: Well! What do you know,
               We're from Kirkland Lake,
                           We're the boys and we're the girls,
                 Who always give and take;
                    It's a real town, a gold town,
            We're in it with a stake.
        We come from near,
      We come from far,
                    To good old Kirkland Lake.

         Now we think a lot of Cobalt
And Porcupine is great,
But here's to the Pride
    of the whole wide North,
   Here's to Kirkland lake!

    Repeat Chorus.



            Have I Told You Lately That I Love You?

               Have I told you lately that I love you?
               Could I tell you once again somehow?
               Have I told with all my heart and soul how I adore you?
               Well darling I’m telling you now

               Have I told you lately when I’m sleeping
               Every dream I dream is you somehow?
               Have I told you why the nights are long
               When you're not with me?
               Well darling I’m telling you now

               My heart would break in two if I should lose you
               I’m no good without you anyhow
               And have I told you lately that I love you
               Well darling I’m telling you now

               My heart would break in two if I should lose you
               I’m no good without you anyhow
               And have I told you lately that I love you
               Well darling I’m telling you now



pref. by Trembling Blue Stars -written by Robert Wratten

Smoke and Steam

If you want me to die for you
Then that is what I'll do
I will give my life
To be always by your side

Though you would haunt me anyway
With you is where I want to be
There is no other place
So come on let's face eternity

We wonder how we could have gone
Without each other for so long
I've waited to collide
Just like this my whole life

Though I know I have no say
That your prisoner I'll always be
I've no desire to escape
No want or need for liberty

The moment I saw you
Come out of the smoke and steam
I wanted to kiss your red red lips
I loved you there and then
I loved you there and then
And I have been on fire since
On fire since...



THE LIGHTHOUSE'S TALE
by Nickel Creek (Adam McKenzie and Chris Thile)

Verse
I am a Lighthouse, Worn by the weather and the waves.
I keep my lamp lit, to warn the sailors on their way.
I'll tell a story, paint you a picture from my past.
I was so happy, but joy in this life seldom lasts.

I had a keeper, he helped me warn the ships at sea.
We had grown closer, 'til his joy meant everything to me.
He was to marry a girl who shown with beauty and light.
They loved each other, and with me watched the sunsets into nights.

Chorus:
And the waves crashing around me, The sand slips out to sea,
And the winds that blow remind me of what has been,
and what can never be.

Verse:
She'd had to leave us; my keeper, he prayed for a safe return,
But when the night came, the weather to a raging storm had turned.
He watched her ship fight, but in vain against the wild and terrible wind,
And me so helpless, as dashed against the rocks she met her end.

<><Chorus>
<>
<>Then on the next day, my keeper found her washed up on the shore.
<>He kissed her cold face, and that they'd be together soon he swore.
<>I saw him crying, watched as he buried her in the sand,
<>Then he climbed my tower, and off the edge of me he ran.

<Chorus>

Verse:
I am a lighthouse, worn by the weather and the waves,
And though I'm empty, I still warn the sailors on their way.

Someone to watch over me!

There's an old saying, says that love is blind
Still we're often told, "Seek and ye shall find."
So I'm going to seek a certain lad I've had in mind
Looking everywhere, haven't found him yet.

He's the big affair I cannot forget
Only man, I ever think of with regret
I'd like to add his initial to my monogram
Tell me, where is the shepherd for this lost lamb?

There's a somebody I'm longing to see !
I hope that he , turns out to be
Someone, who'll watch over me

I'm a little lamb, who's lost in the wood
I know I could, always be good , to
One who'll watch over me.

Although he may not be the man some
Girls think of as handsome
To my heart , he carries the key!

Won't you tell him please ...
to put on some speed?
Follow my lead, oh, how I need
Someone to watch over me!



   Wild Rover

   I've been a wild rover for many a year
   And I spent all my money on whiskey and beer,
   And now I'm returning with gold in great store
   And I never will play the wild rover no more.

  ( chorus:) And it's no, nay, never,
   No nay never no more,
   Will I play the wild rover
   No never no more.

   I went to an ale-house I used to frequent
   And I told the landlady my money was spent.
   I asked her for credit, she answered me "nay
   Such a custom as yours I could have any day."
   ~chorus~
   I took from my pocket ten sovereigns bright
   And the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight.
   She said "I have whiskey and wines of the best
   And the words that I spoke sure were only in jest."
   ~chorus~
   I'll go home to my parents, confess what I've done
   And I'll ask them to pardon their prodigal son.
   And if they caress (forgive) me as oft times before
   Sure I never will play the wild rover no more.

   (Lyrics ...thanks to Nancy :-D)



Forever Young

May God bless and keep you always,
 May your wishes all come true,
 May you always do for others
 And let others do for you.
 May you build a ladder to the stars
 And climb on every rung,
 May you stay forever young,
 Forever young, forever young,
 May you stay forever young.

 May you grow up to be righteous,
 May you grow up to be true,
 May you always know the truth
 And see the lights surrounding you.
 May you always be courageous,
 Stand upright and be strong,
 May you stay forever young,
 Forever young, forever young,
 May you stay forever young.

 May your hands always be busy,
 May your feet always be swift,
 May you have a strong foundation
 When the winds of changes shift.
 May your heart always be joyful,
 May your song always be sung,
 And I will always pray,
 In your heart you'll always stay,
 Forever young, forever young.



 I Want Mickey  !

I know a guy  who's tough but sweet
He's so fine, he can't be beat
He's got everything that I desire
Sets the summer sun on fire

I want Mickey !
I want Mickey!

Go to see him  when the sun goes down
Ain't no finer man  in town
You're my guy , you were made to order
So sweet, you make my mouth water

I want  Mickey !
I want Mickey !

Mickey  on the beach, there's nothing better
But I like Mick  when he's wrapped in a sweater
Some day soon I'll make you mine
Then I'll have Mickey  all the time

I want  Mickey !
I want Mickey !
I want  Mickey !
I want Mickey ... ya!



If it's magic

...Then why can't it be everlasting
Like the sun that always shines
Like the poet's endless rhyme
Like the galaxies in time

If it's pleasing
Then why can't it be never-leaving
Like the day that never fails
Like on seashores there are shells
Like the time that always tells

It holds the key to every heart
Throughout the universe
It fills you up without a bite
And quenches every thirst

So....  If it's special

Then with it why aren't we as careful
As making sure we dress in style
Posing pictures with a smile
Keeping danger from a child

It holds the key to every heart
Throughout the universe
It fills you up without a bite
And quenches every thirst

So...  If it's magic
Why can't we make it everlasting
Like the lifetime of the sun
It will leave no heart undone
For there's enough for everyone."
-Stevie Wonder



In My Life
(John Lennon, Paul McCartney) Lead Vocal: John Lennon

There are places I remember
All my life though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places have their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life I've loved them all

But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more

Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more

In my life I love you more



How Did I Fall in Love with You?

Remember when
We never needed each other
The best of friends
Like sister and brother
We understood
We’d never be  Alone

Those days are gone
Now I want you so much
The night is long
And I need your touch
Don’t know what to say
Never meant to feel this way
Don’t wanna be alone tonight

CHORUS

What can I do to make you mine
Falling so hard, so fast this time
What did I say, what did you do
How did I fall in love with you

I hear your voice
And I start to tremble
Brings back the child
That I resemble
I cannot pretend
That we can still be friends
Don’t wanna be alone tonight

CHORUS - repeat

I wanna say this right
And it has to be tonight
Just need you to know
I don’t wanna live this lie
I don’t wanna say goodbye
With you I wanna spend the rest of my life

CHORUS - repeat

What can I do to make you mine
Falling so hard, so fast this time
Everything’s changed, we never knew
How did I fall in love with you

           More than Words

      Saying I love you
      Is not the words I want to hear from you
      It's not that I want you
      Not to say, but if you only knew
      How easy it would be to show me how you feel
      More than words is all you have to do to make it real
      Then you wouldn't have to say that you love me
      Cos I'd already know

      What would you do if my heart was torn in two
      More than words to show you feel
      That your love for me is real
      What would you say if I took those words away
      Then you couldn't make things new
      Just by saying I love you

      More than words

      Now I've tried to talk to you and make you understand
      All you have to do is close your eyes
      And just reach out your hands and touch me
      Hold me close don't ever let me go
      More than words is all I ever needed you to show
      Then you wouldn't have to say that you love me
      Cos I'd already know

      What would you do if my heart was torn in two
      More than words to show you feel
      That your love for me is real
      What would you say if I took those words away
      Then you couldn't make things new
      Just by saying I love you

      More than words



When I Fall in Love
(Nat and Natalie Cole)

When I give my heart...it will be completely,
Or I'll never give my heart...
..
And the moment that I feel that, you feel
that  way, too...is when I fall in love.
When I fall in love, it will be forever
Or I'll never fall in love...

In a restless world like this is...
love is ended before it's begun.
And too may moonlight kisses,
seem to cool in the warmth of the sun.

When I give my heart...it will be completely,
Or I'll never give my heart...
And the moment I can feel that, you feel that way, too,
Is when I fall in love  ... with you...

I ... love ... you ...



(Song for Gus and Felicity ...)
All My Life  by: America

All my life, without a doubt I give you, all my life
Now and forever 'til the day I die, you and I will share
All the things, this changing world could offer, so I sing
I'd be happy just to stay this way, spend each day with you

CHORUS
There was a time, that I just thought that I would
lose my mind
You came along and then the sun did shine
Shining on our way
I do recall, that every moment spent was wasted time
But then I chose to lay it on the line
Put the past away (3x)

All my life, I will carry you through all my life
Between each hour of the passing day, I will stay with you

CHORUS except last line

Wanted this all my life (4x)



I'll See You in My Dreams

I'll see you ... in my dreams,
And I'll hold you ... in my dreams,
Someone, took you ... right out of my arms,
Still I feel ... the thrill of your charms,
Lips ... that once were mine,
Tender eyes... that shine,
They will light ... my way tonight,
I'll see you ... in my dreams,
Yes, I'll see you ... in my dreams..

(Pat Boone...1960's)



In the Arms of Love

If I could hold you in the arms of love, tonight...
then, I would never let you go!
As the hours go by, I'd show you why,
we've waited for this, as two lovers whisper low...

If I could feel that magic kiss, your lips invite...
Imagine the joy I'd know!
The day has died away, let's find a hideaway,
and share the promise of a new tomorrow...

In the arms of love...
In the arms of love...
In the arms of love ... tonight!

(Mancini/Livingstone/Evans)



'Til The End of Time

Till, the end of time...
Long as stars are in the blue,
Long as there's a spring,
A bird to sing,
I'll go on loving you...

Till, the end of time...
Long as roses bloom in May,
My love for you will grow deeper,
With every passing day...

Till the wells run dry,
and each mountain disappears,
I'll be there for you,
To care for you,
Through laughter, and through tears...

So, take my heart in sweet surrender,
and , tenderly, say that I'm...
The one you'll love and live for...
Till, the end of time...

(Kaye/Mossman)



Let me call you Sweetheart!

Let me call you sweetheart,
I'm in love with you ...
Let me hear you whisper
that you love me , too!

Keep the love light burning
in your eyes, so true.
Let me call you sweetheart,
I'm in love with you...
I'm in love... with ... you !



Song for Gus and Felicity.....

COME SAIL AWAY

I'M SAILING AWAY
SET AN OPEN COURSE FOR THE VIRGIN SEA
FOR I'VE GOT TO BE FREE
FREE TO FACE THE LIFE THAT'S AHEAD OF ME

ON BOARD I'M THE CAPTAIN
SO CLIMB ABOARD
WE LL SEARCH FOR TOMORROW ON EVERY SHORE
AND I'LL TRY OH LORD I'LL TRY TO CARRY ON

I LOOK TO THE SEA REFLECTIONS IN THE WAVES SPARK MY
MEMORY
SOME HAPPY SOME SAD
I THINK OF CHILDHOOD FRIENDS AND THE DREAMS WE HAD

WE LIVED HAPPILY FOREVER
SO THE STORY GOES
BUT SOMEHOW WE MISSED OUT
ON THE POT OF GOLD
BUT WE'LL TRY BEST THAT
WE CAN TO CARRY ON

A GATHERING OF ANGELS APPEARED ABOVE OUR HEADS THEY
SANG TO US
THIS SONG OF HOPE AND THIS IS WHAT THEY SAID

COME SAIL AWAY
COME SAIL AWAY
COME SAIL AWAY WITH ME

I THOUGHT THAT THEY WERE ANGELS
BUT TO MY SURPRISE
WE CLIMBED ABOARD THEIR STAR SHIP
AND HEADED FOR THE SKIES



It's Impossible.

It's impossible, to tell the sun , not to leave the sky,
It's just impossible...
It's impossible, to ask a baby, not to cry,
It's just impossible...

Can I hold you closer to me
and not feel you going through me?
But, the second  that I never think of you,
Oh, how impossible!

Can the ocean keep from rushing to the shore?
It's just impossible!
If I had you, could I ever ask for more?
It's  just impossible!

And, tomorrow, should you ask for the world...
somehow, I'd get it!
I would sell my very soul, and not regret it!
For to live without your love,
Is just impossible

Impossible, impossible, impossible ...

(Wayne-Manzanero; sung by Perry Como)



My Cup Runneth Over With Love..

Sometimes, in the morning, when shadows are deep,
I lie here, beside you, just watching you sleep;
And, sometimes, I whisper, what I'm thinking of...
My cup runneth over  ... with  love!

Sometimes, in the evening, when you do not see,
I study the small things you do ,constantly,
I memorize moments, that I'm fondest of...
My cup runneth over  ... with  love!

In only a moment, we both will be old,
We won't even notice, the world turning cold,
And , so, in this moment, with sunlight above...
My cup runneth over ...  with  love!

My cup runneth over ...  with  love!
... with love  ... with love!

( From " I Do, I Do" by T.Jones/H.Schmidt , Sung by Ed Ames,)



           KISS ME
           Words and music by Matt Slocum
           Additional musicians: J.J. Plasencio (bass), John Mark Painter (accordion),
           Phil Madeira (B-3)

           Kiss me out of the bearded barley.
           Nightly, beside the green, green grass.
           Swing, swing, swing the spinning step.
           You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress.

           Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight.
           Lead me out on the moonlit floor.
           Lift your open hand.
           Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance,
           Silver moon's sparkling....So kiss me.

           Kiss me down by the broken tree house.
           Swing me upon its hanging tire.
           Bring, bring, bring your flowered hat.
           We'll take the trail marked on your father's map.

           Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight.
           Lead me out on the moonlit floor.
           Lift your open hand.
           Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance,
           Silver moon's sparkling.... So kiss me



Dedicated To The One I Love
The Mamas and The Papas

While I'm far away from you my baby
I know it's hard for you my baby
Because it's hard for me my baby
And the darkest hour is just before dawn

Each night before you go to bed my baby
Whisper a little prayer for me my baby
And tell all the stars above
This is dedicated to the one I love
(love can never be exactly like we want it to be)

I could be satisfied knowing you love me
(and there's one thing I want you to do especially for me)
And it's something that everybody needs

While I'm far away from you my baby
Whisper a little prayer for me my baby
Because it's hard for me my baby
And the darkest hour is just before dawn

If there's one thing I want you to do especially for me
Then it's something that everybody needs
