"Way Over There"


I've got a lover way over there, on the mountain side and i know that's where i should be

don't you know i've got a lover way over there across the river wide and i can hear her calling to me

she's calling my name, so sweet and so plain and i can hear her saying

come to me baby
i'm on my way
come to me baby
i'm gonna stay
come to me baby

they tell me that the river's to deep and it's much to wide for you can't get across to the other side

but they don't know i got to get there and hold her in my arms just one more time like a did before when she mine all mine, cause i can hear her saying

come to me baby
i'm on my way
come to me baby
i'm gonna stay
come to me baby
i'm gonna get to you
come to me baby
no matter what i have to do
come to me baby

they tell me that the river's to deep and it's much to wide for you can't make it over to the other side

but they don't know i got to get there and hold her in my arms just one more time like a did before when she mine all mine, cause i can hear her saying

come to me baby
i'm on my way
come to me baby
i'm gonna stay
come to me baby
ooh, baby when i get there, i ain't going nowhere, because a river in't deep enough, a mountain ain't steap enough to keep me from your side

"What A Difference A Day Makes"

"What A Difference A Day Makes"


What a diff'rence a day makes
Twenty-four little hours
Brought the sun and the flowers
Where there used to be rain
My yesterday was blue, dear
Today I'm part of you, dear
My lonely nights are through, dear
Since you said you were mine
What a diff'rence a day makes
There's a rainbow before me
Skies above can't be stormy
Since that moment of bliss, that thrilling kiss
It's heaven when you
Find romance on your menu
What a diff'rence a day makes
And the difference is you
What a diff'rence a day makes
There's a rainbow before me
Skies above can't be stormy
Since that moment of bliss, that thrilling kiss
It's heaven when you
Find romance on your menu
What a diff'rence a day makes
And the difference is you.

"What Love Has Joined Together"

"What Love Has Joined Together"


It would be easier to take the wet from water or the dry from sand
Than for anyone to try to separate us or stop us from holding hands, 'cause...

[Chorus:]
I love you, I love you from the bottom of my heart
And what love has joined together, what love has joined together
Can nobody take it apart

It would be easier to take the cold from the snow or the heat from fire
Than for anyone to take me love from you 'cause you're my heart's desire, &...

[Chorus]

Even if they separate us 1000 miles apart
We will still be together in each other's hearts
It would be easier to change all the seasons of the year
Than for anyone to change the way I feel about you; I love you dear

[Chorus]
[title twice, then fade]

"What Now My Love"

"What Now My Love"


What now my love, now that you've left me
How can I live through another day
Watching my dreams turn into ashes
And my hopes into bits of clay

Once I could see, once I could feel
Now I am numb, so numb, I've become unreal
I walk the night, without a goal
Stripped off my heart and my soul

What now my love, now that it's over
I feel the world closing in on me
Here come the stars, baby, tumbling around me
There's the sky, where the sea should be

What now my love, now that you're gone
I'd be a fool, I'd be a fool to go on and on and on and on
I know that no one would care, baby, no one would cry
If I should live or die, no one would care, if I should live or die, oh, oh

What now my love, now that there is nothing
Only my last, my last goodbye
What now my love, what now my love
What now my love

"What's So Good About Good-Bye"

"What's So Good About Good-Bye"


What's so good about goodbye
All it does is make you cry
Well if leavin' causes grief
Goodbye can break your heart

Tell me what's so good about goodbye
I could have done without it
Won't somebody tell me now
How can goodbye be good to a lover who really cares

And another thing I would like to clarify
Is how can farewell be fair
I could have done without it
Ah, you and I could never say this is goodbye
Girl, well it makes me so sad
Until it's got to be bad

Tell me what's so good about goodbye
I could have done without it
What's so good about goodbye
Baby, baby what's so good about goodbye
You said goodbye to me
All I've known is misery
But if everything goes wrong lovers stay so long

Tell me what's so good about goodbye
I could have done without it
Won't somebody tell me now
How can goodbye be good to a lover who really cares
And another thing I would like to clarify
Is how can farewell be fair
I could have done without it

"White Christmas"

"White Christmas"


I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the tree tops glisten
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow

Ooh, I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
Ooh, white Christmas
Sleigh bells in the snow

Ooh, I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white

"Who Can I Turn To (When Nobody Needs Me)"

"Who Can I Turn To (When Nobody Needs Me)"


Who can I turn to
When nobody needs me
My heart wants to know
So I must go
Where destiny leads me
With no star to guide me
And no one beside me

I'll go on my way
And after the day
The darkness will hide me
But maybe tomorrow
I'll find what I'm after
I'll throw off my sorrow
Beg, steal or borrow
My share of laughter
'Cause with you I could learn to
With you on a new day

But who can I turn to
If you turn away
With you I could learn to
With you on a new day
But who can I turn to
If you turn away

"Who You Gonna Run To"

"Who You Gonna Run To"


When you're feeling alright, I never see you coming.
But when you're hurt, you always come a-runnin';
But one of these days I know, I gonna have to let you go
Then, tell me, who you gonna to run to (baby) where you gonna hide
I wanna know-who you gonna tell that you're hurting-ing inside

When you're going strong, (when you're going strong) I don't see you at all (I don't see you at all);
But when something goes wrong,
(when something goes wrong) that's when you call (that's when you call)
But if you keep doing me like you do, then I'm gonna turn my back on you
Then tell me, who you gonna run to

[repeat chorus]

Hmmm mm

When you climbed love's tree, you thought that love was a game;
but now you're out on a limb, oh yes, and you're calling my name.
But one of these days I'm bound, to let you come tumbe-ling down
Then tell me who you gonna run to

[Repeat chorus to a harmonic fade out]

"Who's Lovin' You"

"Who's Lovin' You"


When I had you here
I treated you bad
And wrong my dear
And since
Oh, since you went away
Don't you know I sit around with my head hanging down
And I wonder
Who is loving you

I, I, I should have never, ever, ever made you cry
And since, since you went away
Don't you know I sit around with my head hanging down
And I wonder
Who is loving you

Life without love
Don't you know it's oh so lonely
I don't think
I don't think I'm gonna make it
Well my life
All my love I devote to you only
Come on and take it
Come on and take it
Because all
All I can do
All I can do since you've been gone is cry
And since, boy, since you went away
Don't you know I sit around with my head hanging down
And I wonder, who is loving you
Wonder who is loving you

"Why Did She Have To Leave Me (Why Did She Have To Go)"

"Why Did She Have To Leave Me (Why Did She Have To Go)"


There were times I knew
But I found it hard to say
You were special in my life
Never thought you'd go away

I'll be strong
I'll get by
Without you in my life
I can see
Through your lies
Did you ever love me
I never found your love

You and I know
Love is leaving
And you don't want me anymore
Why should I
Even try

You and I know
Love is leaving
Now you're the last thing on my mind
Someone else
I will find
A memory I've left behind

If I ever made you cry
Any reason I can't find
It was lonely by your side
Like a fool, I stood by you
I'll be strong
I'll get by
Without you in my life
I can see
Through your lies
Did you ever love me
I never found your love

You and I know
Love is leaving
And you don't want me anymore
Why should I
Even try

You and I know
Love is leaving
Now you're the last thing on my mind
Someone else
I will find
A memory I've left behind

Is there something I could do
Is there something I should say
Is there someone else to keep you from
And now (Woah, woah, yeah, yeah yeah-yeah-yeah)

You and I know
Love is leaving
And you don't want me anymore
Why should I
Even try

You and I know
Love is leaving
Now you're the last thing on my mind
Someone else
I will find
A memory I've left behind

You and I know
Love is leaving
And you don't want me anymore
Why should I
Even try

You and I know
Love is leaving
Now you're the last thing on my mind
Why should I
Even try
