"Crying In The Rain"


I'll never let you see
The way my broken heart is hurting' me
I've got my pride and I know how to hide
All my sorrow and pain
I'll do my crying' in the rain

If I wait for cloudy skies
You won't know the rain from the tears in my eyes
You'll never know that I still love you so
Though the heartaches remain
I'll do my crying in the rain

Raindrops falling from heaven
Could never wash away my misery
But since we're not together
I'll look for stormy weather
To hide these tears I hope you'll never see

Someday when my crying's done
I'm gonna wear a smile and walk in the sun
I may be a fool but 'til then darling you'll
Never see me complain
I'll do my crying in the rain

[Instrumental]

Raindrops falling from heaven
Could never wash away my misery
But since we're not together
I'll look for stormy weather
To hide these tears I hope you'll never see

Someday when my crying's done
I'm gonna wear a smile and walk in the sun
I may be a fool but 'til then darling you'll
Never see me complain
I'll do my crying in the rain

I'll do my crying in the rain

I'll do my crying in the rain...

"Cup O' Tea"



I don't want to be the fiery sun
I just want to be your candle, honey
I just want to be your candle, baby
Let the sun shine on.

I don't want to be like the deep blue sea
I just want to be your cup 'o tea
I just want to be your cup 'o tea
Let the sea rage on.

Let the waves roll and pound
Let the sun burn the ground
Let this old world roll around
I'll be happy to have your lovin'.

I don't want to be like a big freight train
I just want to be your walking cane
I just want to be your walking cane
You can lean on me.

I don't want to be like a bird in the air
I just want to be your rocking chair
I just want to be your rocking chair
Baby, sit by me.

Let the trains roll on by
Leave it up to the birds to fly
'Long as you say you'll be mine
I'll be happy to have your lovin'

I don't want to be like the deep blue sea
I just want to be your cup 'o tea
I just want to be your cup 'o tea
Let the sea rage on...

"Darlin' That's What Your Love Does"



Early this morning before you awoke
There was mist on the creek while the cigarette's smoked
And when the sun rose up and burned off the cold
The smoke turned to silver and then turned to gold.

Darlin' that's just what your love does
That's what it does with a kiss
I'm not the man that I just was
Love don't get deeper than this.

When I was young and my daddy was gone
I'd go to sleep with the radio on
Sometimes they'd played such a beautiful song
Me and the Sand Man would sing all night long.

Darlin' that's just what your love does
When you just whispered my name
I'm not the man that I just was
Nothing about me's the same.

Darlin' by this time tomorrow
There's no telling who I might be
Your love just keep changin' me.

And I've come to think that the heart's like a kite
And in the best breeze it still cannot take flight
Until someone ties it and takes it in tow
And it floats around heaven until it lets go.

Darlin' that's just what your love does
That's what it does with a touch
I'm not the man that I just was
Darlin' I need you that much.

Darlin' that's just what your love does
That's what it does with a kiss
I'm not the man that I just was
Love don't get deeper than this...

"Desperately"


My heart is out of control
This ol' love struck so
Just lives for the moment you're around
When I hold on to you it is all I can do
Just to keep my feet on the ground

Desperately, loving you desperately
When you are not here with me
I get a little bit crazy

Constantly, think about you constantly
Look at what you done to me
I'm just like a little baby
Oh! I love you desperately

[Instrumental]

Will I laugh will I cry
Will I live Will I die
It all depends upon you

And it is dangerous, I know
to be lost in you so
But I'm that there's nothing I can do

Desperately, loving you desperately
When you are not here with me
I get a little bit crazy

Constantly, think about you constantly
Look at what you done to me
I'm just like a little baby
Oh! I love you desperately

Desperately, loving you desperately
When you are not here with me
I get a little bit crazy

Constantly, think about you constantly
Look at what you done to me
I'm just like a little baby
Oh! I love you desperately...

"Desperately"


My heart is out of control
This ol' love struck so

I get a little bit crazy

Constantly, think about you constantly
Look at what you done to me

[Instrumental]

Will I laugh will I cry
Will I live Will I die

Oh! I love you desperately

Desperately, loving you desperately
When you are not here with me
I get a little bit crazy

Constantly, think about you constantly
Look at what you done to me
I'm just like a little baby
Oh! I love you desperately...

"Diamonds To Dust"


Love is a question that few understand
It runs like a river between a woman and a man
But it's course can get twisted, its bed can run dry
And a heart become desert in the wink of an eye.

Once there was loving, once there was trust
Once it was honest and open and just
Our love was a diamond that grew between us
But time can turn even diamonds to dust.

Diamond to dust, oh diamonds to dust
Time can turn even diamonds to dust.

[Instrumental]

Ooo ooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo ooo

Time is a teacher it's kind and it's cruel
It gives you the wisdom to see you're a fool
And it gives love and takes love, it hurts and it heals
And it never parts easy with the truth it reveals.

Diamond to dust, oh diamonds to dust
Time can turn even diamonds to dust.

Diamond to dust, oh diamonds to dust
Time can turn even diamonds to dust.

Ooo ooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo ooo

Ooo ooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo ooo...

"Don't Stop Loving Me Now"


I know I'm ready now
To love you like you want me to
I've finally figured out
That I depend on you

I haven't started loving you yet
So don't stop loving me now
Don't do something we'll both regret
Don't stop loving me now

You've seen me running 'round
Trying to live to fast
I swear I'm slowing down
I know what I want at last

[Instrumental]

Don't say you're walking out
Now that I've finally changed
My life is turned around
So don't stop loving me now

I know I'm ready now
To love you like you want me to
I've finally figured out
That I depend on you

I haven't started loving you yet
So don't stop loving me now
Don't do something we'll both regret
Don't stop loving me now.

Don't stop loving me now...

"Don't You Believe"



Don't you believe I've tried long enough
Don't you just believe it's time
Don't you believe I've gone far enough
Don't you just believe it's time

Lord knows I've tried
Just to keep you off my mind
But it's no use
Nothing works
You just stay with me all the time

So don't you believe I've tried long enough
Don't you just believe it's time
Don't you believe I've gone far enough
Don't you just believe it's time

All I do is follow you
Reaching for you with my mind
Your sweet love is all I need
And I think you've known it all the time

Don't you believe I've tried long enough
Don't you just believe it's time
Don't you believe I've gone far enough
Don't you just believe it's time

So don't you believe I've tried long enough
Don't you just believe it's time
Don't you believe I've gone far enough
Don't you just believe it's time

"Don't You Think It's Time"


Don't you think it's time for us to work it out?
Don't you think you know what it's all about?
Don't you think it's sad living all alone?
So, don't you think it's time for us to get along?

We know the songs of all the wrongs
Love that died, nobody tried
But here and now I know what's true
I can't live without you.

So, don't you think it's time for us to work it out?
Don't you think you know what it's all about?
Don't you think it's sad living all alone?
So, don't you think it's time for us to get along?

[Instrumental]

Find the page that says we're old
Is love at home or is it cold?

So, don't you think it's time for us to work it out?
Don't you think you know what it's all about?
Don't you think it's sad living all alone?
So, don't you think it's time for us to get along?..

"Donald And June"



Donald and June enjoyed their brief honeymoon
Then they came home to lead the big baby boom
June wanted boys, so Margie wore short hair and corduroys
Soon they had Claire then Linda and Louise, a matching pair
June liked boys

Donald and June they put some money aside
But all in four years they gave away three brides
June spent it all. Donald tried to keep each wedding small
When they were broke he offered
Claire a thousand to elope
Claire said, 'Nope'

If things were different for Donald and June
Then things wouldn't be what they are
Where did they go right
And how did they ever come, so far

Donald and June had finally emptied their nest
They planned a long trip and then a couple year's rest
But Claire had a spat
And turned up with her suitcase and her cap
Marg moved next door,
Now she won't need day care anymore
And the twins had twins

If things were different for Donald and June
Then things wouldn't be as they are
Where did they go right
And how did they ever come, so far.

Donald and June enjoyed their brief honeymoon...

"Down The Road I Go"


I guess there's not much I can do or say
Saw my baby with another guy today
Though I love her and I try to tell her so
It's hello blues and down the road I go

Well I've never seen that guy before today
He held my baby in close this way
And the way she snuggled close to him I know
It's hello blues and down the road I go

Well it seemed our thoughts were much alike,
Our likes were much the same
We even had our future planned
'Til in the town he came

Well I've never seen that guy before today
He held my baby in close this way
And the way she snuggled close to him I know
It's hello blues and down the road I go

[Instrumental]

Well it seemed our thoughts were much alike,
Our likes were much the same
We even had our future planned
'Til in the town he came

Well I've never seen that guy before today
He held my baby in close this way
And the way she snuggled close to him I know
It's hello blues and down the road I go...

"Easy Touch"


I'm an easy touch, she knows it, everybody does
I just can't say no, she calls, I go
And I would bring her the world on a silver platter
Oh, but things like that don't matter.
All she wants is all my love
And for that I'm an easy touch.

I'm an easy touch
I love her she don't know how much
I just can't resist, she wants, she gets
And I would gladly pay any price to be with her
Oh, there's nothing I wouldn't give her
All she wants is all my love
And for that, I'm an easy touch.

I just love to hear her say
Honey, there's something I need today
It's so sure a sign
That love is on the way.

[Instrumental]

And I would gladly pay any price to be with her
Oh, there's nothing I wouldn't give her
All she wants is all my love
And for that, I'm an easy touch.

[Instrumental to fade]

"Elise"


Sitting in the barroom ordering another beer
She stepped up on the stage, but nobody wanted to hear
And every word she sang was sweet music to my ears.

[Chorus:]
Elise, Elise, I believe every word you say
Elise, Elise, I believe every word you say.

It don't matter if the world don't listen
Don't you pay no heed
Elise, Elise, come and sing your song with me.

I sat there at the bar she sang the blues all night
Singing straight from the heart, living every line
I wanna tell you girl, you touched this heart of mine.

[Chorus:]
Elise, Elise, I believe every word you say
Elise, Elise, I believe every word you say.

[Instrumental]

End of the night, they turned the lights down low
While the band packed up
She was standing there ready to go
I walked up and said, hey, I just want to let you know.

[Chorus:]
Elise, Elise, I believe every word you say
Elise, Elise, I believe every word you say.

It don't matter if the world don't listen
Don't you pay no heed
Elise, Elise, come and sing your song with me.

Elise, Elise, come and sing your song with me...

"Endless Sleep"



The night was dark, rain falling down
Looked for my baby she's nowhere around
Traced her footsteps down to the shore
'Fraid she's gone forever more

I looked at the sea and it seemed to say
I took your baby from you away
I heard a voice crying in the deep
Come join me baby in my endless sleep

Why did we quarrel, why did we fight
Why did I leave her alone tonight
That's why her footsteps ran into the sea
That's why my baby is gone from me

I looked at the sea and it seemed to say
I took your baby from you away
I heard a voice crying in the deep
Come join me baby in my endless sleep

Ran in the water, heart full of fear
There in the breakers I saw her near
Reached for my baby, held her to me
Stole her away from the endless sleep

I looked at the sea and it seemed to say
You took your baby from me away
My heart cried out, she's mine to keep
I saved my baby from that endless sleep...

"Especially You"



I see the rainbow in your eyes,
I see all the colors pass me by
I sure like the things my eyes can do,
Especially when they see you.

I hear the music of this day,
I sure like the songs this world can play
But most of all I like your tune,
When you whisper I love you.

My senses don't like, I get a definite high
When you're near I feel clear off the ground
Reach for my arms, and I will give you the stars
There is nothing that is holding us down.

I touch the textures of this earth,
I felt for the good and I felt for the worse
But I never knew what a touch could do
Until I was touched by you.

My senses don't like, I get a definite high
When you're near I feel clear off the ground
Reach for my arms, and I will give you the stars
There is nothing that is holding us down.

I see the rainbow in your eyes,
I see all the colors pass me by
I sure like the things my eyes can do,
Especially when they see you...

"Expert At Everything"


No one could love me
The way that you love me
But is it a matter of time.
But each time you hold me
The way that you hold me
Time never crosses my mind.

We all took chances
Sometimes too many
So, I'll take some chances myself.
'Cause you're an expert at everything
I never thought of and
Real good at everything else.

You give me kisses
For no special reason
No special reason's enough.
You never wait till the
Party's all over
To show me
I'm the one you love.

You never do me
The way that they did me
'Cause look what you've done
With what was left
You're an expert at everything
I never thought of and
Real good at everything else.

[Instrumental]

You give me kisses
For no speacial reason
No special reason's enough.
You never wait till the
Party's all over
To show me
I'm the one you love.

You never do me
The way that they did me
'Cause look what you've done
With what was left
You're an expert at everything
I never thought of and
Real good at everything else.

[Instrumental to fade]

"Fairweather Friends"


Fairweather friends, fairweather sailors,
Will leave you stranded on life's shore.
One good friend who truly loves you
Is worth the pain your heart endures.

We never know which way the wind will blow,
Nor when or where the next turmoil will be.
But he's a solid rock when troubles grow,
And he's holding out a saving hand for me.

Fairweather friends, fairweather sailors,
Will leave you stranded on life's shore.
One good friend who truly loves you
Is worth the pain your heart endures.

[Instrumental]

He'll be a refuge in the storm;
He'll be a beacon in the night;
In the chilly winds of doubt he'll keep you warm;
When you can't find your way he'll be your light.

Fairweather friends, fairweather sailors,
Will leave you stranded on life's shore.
One good friend who truly loves you
Is worth the pain your heart endures...

"Falling In Love Again"


Love be gentle, love be kind
As I give this heart of mine
To a new love I hope will never end.
It seems like only yesterday
Love was here and went away
Out of love again but now I'm falling in.

[Chorus:]
Fallin' in, love again
I'd fallen out but there's no doubt
I'm fallin' in, love again.

[Instrumental]

I know that love won't always last
When you fall in love to fast.
I should know better
But here I go again.

Love be strong, love be true
For what else can I do.
Love is calling and I know
I'm fallin' in.

[Chorus:]
Fallin' in, love again
I'd fallen out but there's no doubt
I'm fallin' in, love again.

[Chorus:]
Fallin' in, love again
I'd fallen out but there's no doubt
I'm fallin' in, love again...

"Fever"



Never know how much I love you,
Never know how much I care
When you put your arms around me,
I get a fever that's so hard to bear
You give me fever, when you kiss me,
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever in the morning, fever all through the night.

Sun lights up the daytime,
Moon lights up the night
I light up when you call my name,
Because, I know your gonna treat me right
You give me fever, when you kiss me,
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever in the morning, fever all through the night.

Everybody's got the fever,
That is something you all know
Fever isn't such a new thing,
Fever started long ago.

Romeo loved Juliet, Juliet she felt the same,
When he put his arms around her,
He said, 'Julie baby you're my thing'
You give us fever, when we kisseth,
Fever with the flaming youth
Fever, I'm on fire, Fever yea, I burn forsooth.

Captain Smith and Pocahontas, had a very mad affair
When her Daddy tried to kill him,
She said, Daddy-o don't do that
He gives me fever, with his kisses,
Fever when he holds me tight
Fever, I'm his misses, Daddy won't you treat him right.

Now you've listened to my story,
And here's a point that I have made
Chicks were born to give you fever,
Be it farenheight or centigrade
They give you fever, when you kiss them
Fever if you live your life
Fever 'til you sizzle
What a lovely way to burn
What a lovely way to burn
What a lovely way to burn
What a lovely way to burn...

"First Fool In Line"



I know I shouldn't love you
from the way we said goodbye
And I know there are others
with tears for you still in their eyes
But if I thought you were lonely
I wouldn't waste any time
I'd be the first fool in line

Funny thing about a memory
when it comes to love
It forgets all the bad times
and remembers what it wants
so if you're looking
for a heart whose love is blind
I'll be the first fool in line

I'll fall back into your arms again
Just as fast as the fool I was back then
I know I should know better
i know the hurt I'll find
But I'll be the first fool in line

I'll fall back into your arms again
Just as fast as the fool I was back then
So if ever you are lookin'
for a heart whose love is blind
But I'll be the first fool in line

I'll be the first fool in line
