"Brazilian Wedding Song (Setembro)"


Today is the day to say I do
Yes, I promise to be true
I pledge all my love to you always
Don't you know this ring
This ring is a symbol of my love
Grant us blessings from above oh, oh
Who cherish all the magic of our days
Oh Lord, oh Lord, here I stand
Golden chains around our hearts
Vow to death we'll never part
From this day as one we'll start our lives
Oh Lord, here I stand
With my heart out in my hand
Rich or poor, I am your man
I'm your lover and friend for life
Ooh
So much love, so much love, girl
So much love, girl, la, la, la, la
Today, today, today is the day to say I do
Yes, I promise to be true
I pledge all my love to you always
Don't you know this ring
This ring is a symbol of my love
Grant us blessings from above oh, oh
Who cherish all the magic of our days
And I can hear them when they play
Our Brazilian wedding song

"Brother, Brother"
(originally by Carole King)



Oh, brother, brother, brother
I know you've been layin back a long time
But I love you like no other
Oh, brother of mine
I've been watching everything you do
And I've been wishing only good for you
All you've got to do is just want it to
And it's gonna - it's gonna come to you
Oh, brother, brother, brother
I know you've been hangin' on a long time
But I love you like no other
Oh, brother of mine
You have always been so good to me
And though you didn't always talk to me
There wasn't much my lovin' eyes could not see
and I don't believe you need all your misery
Oh, brother, brother, brother
I know you've been hangin' on a long time
You know I love you like no other
Oh, brother, brother, brother
Talkin' about you, brother
 
"Brown Eyed Girl"

"Brown Eyed Girl"


Wished I could sing you
Sing you the song I sang once
Brown eyed girl, if you could deal with it, baby
I would girl, sing it all night
You want a lover
You need not look no further than my shadow
Time passes slowly here without you, baby
Nothing's new
Here in the darkness all is still
Needing you near me, if you will
Brown eyed girl
Brown eyed girl
Brown eyed girl
Know I just don't have
Just don't have the (Incomprehensible)
Wish that I
Well, well, sometimes I wish that I
Wished I could tell you, tell you the thoughts
Tell you the thoughts that I'm thinking
Brown eyed girl, if I could deal with it
Baby, I would tell it all now
Been writing you letter that unfolds
Telling you secrets of my soul
Brown eyed girl
Brown eyed girl
Brown eyed girl

"Climbing Up The Ladder"

"Climbing Up The Ladder"


Climbin' up the ladder
I keep pushin' and I'm bound to know
Climbin' climbin' the ladder
Though it be shakin'
Ain't it up that I gotta go?

Keep me in the backroads
Why should I stay down?
I keep tryin', tryin' my best now baby
To reach that solid ground

Ain't nothin' wrong baby, ain't nothin' wrong in believin' in a dream
Ain't nothin' wrong baby, ain't nothin' wrong though the evidence unseen

Climbin' up the ladder
I keep pushin' and I'm bound to know
Climbin' climbin' up the ladder
Though it be shakin'
Ain't it up that I gotta go?

Reach out for the wisdom
Touchin' it every day
I keep reachin' for my next step baby
I keep hopin' that I find a way

Ain't nothin' wrong baby, ain't nothin' wrong in believin' in a dream
Ain't nothin' wrong baby, ain't nothin' wrong though the evidence unseen

Climbin' up the ladder
I keep pushin' and I'm bound to know
Climbin' climbin' up the ladder
Though it be shakin'
Ain't it up that I gotta go?

Seekin' satisfaction
Doubt that I believe?
But don't try me try my faith now baby
I said daniel's stopped the mouths of beasts!

Ain't nothin' wrong baby, ain't nothin' wrong in believin' in a dream
Ain't nothin' wrong baby, ain't nothin' wrong though the evidence unseen
 
"Colder Are My Nights"

"Colder Are My Nights"


It's looking better
More and more every day
Anything's better
Than the reason I've moved away

If those days can look brighter
Means everything is possible
For so long on my own
Had some time on my hands

The colder are my nights
(So cold, my nights, so cold, my nights)
Means I need you more and more

The colder are my nights
Means I can't do without you too long
(So cold, my nights, so cold, my nights)

Uh, uh, uh
Uh

You made the difference
And what a difference it is
You made me realize
What is life without you

Since those days when nothing goes right
Things get almost but not quiet
They get so sore, they come close
They get so sore, uh, uh

Colder are my nights
(So cold, my nights, so cold, my nights)
Means I need you more and more

Colder are my nights
Means I can't do without you too long
(So cold, my nights, so cold, my nights)

Colder are my nights
(So cold, my nights, so cold, my nights)
Means I need you more and more

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Ah, ha
Well

"Come To Me"

"Come To Me"


Standing in the rain
Teardrops begin to fall
I could feel your pain
Raindrops just hide it all

He said I didn't need you, made you cry
You turned and walked away
I was there again with my arms open wide
Didn't you hear me say?

(Come to me)
I'll show you better ways
(Come to me)
I love you, girl

(Come to me)
Oh, babe
(Come to me)

Wanting you to hold
I chased your love through the storm
Out of self control
The thought was enough to keep me warm

Girl, I really need you
I'm yours forever and a day
It's clear for you to see
So don't ignore your heart when I say

(Come to me)
I'll show you better ways
(Come to me)
Oh, I love you, girl

(Come to me)
Please, babe
(Come to me)
Come to me

Take a chance, don't you be afraid
Let tonight persuade you to come to me
Let it go, what's over now
I'll never let you down, come to me

(Come to me)
(Come to me)
Oh, my arms are open wide
Please stand by my side

(Come to me)
Please come to me, baby
(Come to me)
I need to really love you, girl

(Come to me)
(Come to me)
Oh, I'll chase your love through the storm
Please, girl, won't you keep me warm?

(Come to me)
Please come to me, baby
(Come to me)
I need to really love you, girl

(Come to me)
Please come to me, baby
(Come to me)
I need to really love you, girl

Come to me
Come to me
