"Laura"

"Laura"



You know the feeling of something half remembered
Of something that never happened, yet you recall it well.
You know the feeling of recognizing someone
That you've never met as far as you could tell, well.

Laura is the face in the misty light,
Footsteps that you hear down the hall.
The laugh that floats on a summer night
That you can never quite recall.
And you see Laura on the train that is passing through.
Those eyes, how familiar they seem.
She gave your very first kiss to you.
That was Laura but she's only a dream.

"Leaving On A Jet Plane"

"Leaving On A Jet Plane"


All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go
I'm standing here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the dawn is breakin', it's early morn
The taxi's waitin', he's blowin' his horn
Already I'm so lonesome. I could cry.

[Chorus:]
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go.
I'm leavin' on a jet plane
I don't know when I'll be back again
Oh, babe, I hate to go.

There's so many times I've let you down
So many times I've played around
I tell you now, they don't mean a thing
Ev'ry place I go, I'll think of you
Ev'ry song I sing, I'll sing for you
When I come back, I'll wear your wedding ring.

[Chorus]

Now the time has come to leave you
One more time, let me kiss you
Then close your eyes, I'll be on my way.
Dream about the days to come
When I won't have to leave alone
About the times, I won't have to say,

[Chorus]

"Let It Be Me"

"Let It Be Me"



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 love me only
And that you'll always let it be me

Comme l'argile, l'insecte fragile
L'esclave docile, je t'appartiens
De tout mon tre, tu es le seul ma”tre
Je dois me soumettre, je t'appartiens

To you I'm praying, hear what I'm saying
Please, let your heart beat
For me, just me

So never leave me lonely
Tell me, you love me only
And that you'll always let it be me

"Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!"

"Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!"



Oh, the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful
Since we've no place to go
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

It doesn't show signs of stoppin'
And I brought some corn for poppin'
The lights are turned down low
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

When we finally kiss good night
How I'll hate goin' out in the storm
But if you really hold me tight
All the way home I'll be warm

The fire is slowly dying
And, my dear, we're still good-bye-in'
But as long as you love me so
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

(When we finally kiss good night)
How I'll hate goin' out in the storm
(But if you really hold me tight)
All the way home I'll be war-ar-arm

The fire is slowly dying
And, my dear, we're still good-bye-in'
But as long as you love me so
Let it snow, let it snow
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

Let it snow

"Lips Of Wine"

"Lips Of Wine"


I tasted your sweet lips, thrilled to my fingertips
Lips of wine, warm with fire, you are my one desire
Lips of wine, and they are mine

While tropic breezes play, while palm trees gently
sway
Lips of wine, come to me, whisper low so tenderly
Lips of wine, and they are mine

LIPS OF WINE

Sweet Hawaiian miss, no more will I roam
I must have your kiss and I can't go home

You stole my heart from me, pretty rose of Waikiki
Lips of wine, sweet and rare, tell me you will always care
Lips of wine, and they are mine

(Sweet lips, sweet and tasty lips)

Sweet Hawaiian miss, no more will I roam
I must have your kiss and I can't go home

I tasted you sweet lips (sweet lips, your sweet and tasty lips)
Thrilled to my fingertips (sweet lips, your sweet and tasty lips)
Lips of wine, warm with fire, you are my one desire
Lips of wine (sweet lips) and they are mine (sweet lips of wine)
And they are mine (sweet lips of wine)

[FADE]

Ooh, they are mine (sweet lips of wine)

"Little Altar Boy"
(originally by Vic Dana)



Little alter boy, I wonder could you pray for me?
Little alter boy, for I have gone astray
What must I do to be holy like you?
Little alter boy ,oh, let me hear you pray

Little alter boy, I wonder could you ask your lord
Ask him, alter boy, to take my sins away
What must I do to be holy like you?
Little alter boy, oh, let me hear you pray

Lift up your voice and send a pray above
Help me rejoice and fill that prayer with love
Now I know my life has been all wrong
Lift my your voice and help a sinner be strong

Little alter boy, I wonder could you pray for me?
Could you tell our lord I'm gonna change my ways today?
What must I do to be holy like you?
Little alter boy, oh, let me hear you pray
Little alter boy please let me hear you pray!

"Little Green Apples"

"Little Green Apples"



And I wake up in the mornin'
With my hair down in my eyes and she says "Hi"
And I stumble to the breakfast table
While the kids are goin' off to school, goodbye

She reaches out and takes my hand
And squeezes it and says, "How you feeling hon?"
And I look across at smiling lips
That warm my heart and see my morning sun

And if that's not lovin' me then all I've got to say

God didn't make a little green apples
It don't rain in Indianapolis in the summertime
No such thing as Doctor Seuss
Disneyland or Mother Goose is no nursery rhyme

God didn't make a little green apples
And it ain't gonna rain in Indianapolis in the summertime
When myself is feelin' low
Think about her face aglow and ease my mind

Sometimes I call her up at home knowing she's busy
And ask if she could get away and meet me and grab a bite to eat
Then she drops what she's doin' and hurries down to meet me
And I'm always late but she sits waitin' patiently
And smiles when she first sees me 'cause she's made that way

And if that's not lovin' me then all I've got to say

God didn't make a little green apples
It don't snow in Minneapolis when the winter comes
There's no such think as make believe
Puppy dogs and autumn leaves and BB guns

God didn't make a little green apples
And it ain't gonna rain in Indianapolis in the summertime
When myself is feelin' low
I think about her face aglow and ease my mind
To ease my mind, to ease my mind

"Lonely Street"

"Lonely Street"



Where's this place called "Lonely Stree-ee-ee-eet?"
I'm looking for that lonely street
I've got a sad, sad tale to tell
I need a place to go and weep
Where's this place called "Lonely Stree-ee-ee-eet?"
A place where there's just loneliness
Where dim lights bring forgetfulness
Where broken dreams and mem'ries meet
Where's this place called "Lonely Stree-ee-ee-eet?"
Perhaps upon that lonely street
There's someone such as I
Who came to bury broken dreams
And watch an old love di-ie
If I could find that lonely street
Where dim lights bring forgetfulness
Where broken dreams and mem'ries meet
Where's this place called "Lonely Stree-ee-ee-eet?"
Where's this place called "Lonely Stree-ee-ee-eet?"

"Love Is A Many-Splendored Thing"

"Love Is A Many-Splendored Thing"



Love
Is a many splendored thing
It's the April rose
That only grows
In the early spring
Love
Is nature's way of giving
A reason to be living
The golden crown
That makes a man a king

Once on a high
And windy hill
In the morning mist
Two lovers kissed
And the world stood still
Then your fingers touched
My silent heart
And taught it how to sing
Yes, true love's
A many splendored thing

Once on a high
And windy hill
In the morning mist
Two lovers kissed
And the world stood still
Then your fingers touched
My silent heart
And taught it how to sing
Yes, true love's
A many splendored thing

"Love Is Blue"

"Love Is Blue"



Blue, blue, my world is blue
Blue is my world since I'm without you
Gray, gray, my life is gray
Cold is my heart since you went away

Red, red, my eyes are red
Crying for you alone in my bed
Green, green, my jealous heart
I doubted you and now we're apart

When we met how the bright sun shone
Then love died, now the rainbow is gone

Black, black, the nights I've known
Longing for you so lost and alone
Gone, gone, the love we knew
Blue is my world now I'm without you.
