"Try A Little Tenderness"

"Try A Little Tenderness"



She may be weary
Women do get weary
Wearing the same shabby dress
And when she's weary

Try a little tenderness
You know she's waiting
Just anticipating things she may never possess
While she's without them,

Try a little tenderness
It's not just sentimental
She has her grief and care
And a word that's soft and gentle

Makes it easier to bear
You won't regret it
Women don't forget it
Love is their whole happiness

It's all so easy
Try a little tenderness

She may be weary
Women do get weary
Wearing the same shabby dress
And when she's weary

Try a little tenderness
You know she's waiting
Just anticipating things she may never possess
While she's without them

Try a little tenderness
It's not just sentimental
She has her grief and care
And a word that's soft and gentle

Makes it easier to bear
You won't regret it
Women don't forget it
Love is their whole happiness

It's all so easy
Try a little tenderness

"Two Sides Of Love"

"Two Sides Of Love"



Two sides
Two sides of love can make me wonder
Can lift me up or pull me under
The different ways that you can be bother me

Cause there are sometimes
You treat me nice and whisper so sweetly
You make me feel you’re mine completely
And when you hold me like you do then I love you

But then there goes times
You smile at girls
Start me wonder if worth being fail and so down
You make me feel you don’t want me around

You’re making me a girl with two sides
One part of me can never, ever trust you
The other part keeps wanting just you
So if you find I’m acting strange
Then you’re the one who made me change

You’re making me a girl with two sides
One part of me can never trust you
The other part keeps wanting just you
So if you find I’m acting strange
Then you’re the one who made me change, ah, ah

You took my love and you tore it all apart
Took my heart right from the start
You’re making me a girl with two sides
Look at me, I’ve got two sides

"United Together"

"United Together"



We've had a hard time
You and I
Life sent us through some changes
Oh, but somehow we got by

A winding road, a heavy load
Is nothing new, you see
We know that through the bad times
I'll have you and you'll have me

United together
I finally found the one
Who'll love me forever
We two have just become as one

If we just keep this love alive
As time goes on this joy we know
Can't help but grow inside

Some people spend a lifetime
Looking for that special need
I'm so glad my search is over
Darling, I'm so glad that we're

United together (United together)
I finally found the one (I finally found the one)
Who'll love me forever (Who'll love me forever)
We two have just become (We two have just become as one)

There's nothing we can't overcome
If you let me be your only one
There's nothing we can't overcome (Ooh, hoo, hoo)
If you let me be your one and only, one and only

Some people spend a lifetime
Looking for that special need
I'm so glad my search is over
Darling, I'm so glad that we're

United together (United together)
I finally found the one (I have finally found the one)
Who'll love me forever (Who will love me and stand by me forever)
We two have just become

United together (United together)
I finally found the one (I finally found the one)
Who'll love me forever (Who will love me and stand by me forever)
We two have just become (Ooh, yes, we have)
We two have just become (Oh, yes, we have)

United together (United together)
I finally found the one (I finally found the one)
Who'll love me forever (Who will love me, love me, love me)
We two have just become (We are, we are, we are)

United together (United together)
I finally found the one (Finally found the one)
Who'll love me forever (Who will love me forever)
We two have just become (Ooh, we two)

United together (United together)
I finally found the one (I finally found the one)
Who'll love me forever (Who will love me forever)
We two have just become (We two have just become)

United together (United together)
I finally found the one (I finally found the one)
Who'll love me forever (Oh, who will love me forever)
We two have just become

"Until You Come Back To Me (That's What I'm Gonna Do)"

"Until You Come Back To Me (That's What I'm Gonna Do)"



Though you don’t call anymore
I sit and wait in vain
I guess I’ll rap on your door (your door)
Tap on your window pane (tap on your window pane)
I wanna tell you, baby
Changes I’ve been going through (uuuh)
Missing you, listening you
‘Till you come back to me that’s what I’m gonna do

Why did you have to decide
You had to set me free?
I’m gonna swallow my pride (my pride)
I’m gonna beg you to please, baby please see me (you never want to see me)
I’m gonna walk by myself
Just to prove that my love is true (uuuh)
All for you baby
‘Till you come back to me that’s what I’m gonna do

Living for you, my dear
Is like living in a world of constant fear
Hear my plea (hear my plea)
I’ve got to make you see (make you see)
That our love is dying (our love is dying)

Although your phone you ignore
Somehow I must, somehow I must, how I must explain
I’m gonna rap on your door (your door)
Tap on your window pane (tap on your window pane)
I’m gonna camp by your steps
Until I get through to you (uuuh)
I’ve got to change your view, baby
‘Till you come back to me that’s what I’m gonna do
‘Till you come back to me that’s what I’m gonna do
‘Till you come back to me that’s what I’m gonna do

I’m gonna rap on your door (tap on)
Tap on your window pane (tap on)
Open out baby, I’m gonna rap on your door (tap on)
Tap on your, tap on your (tap on)
Tap on your , tap on your window pane (tap on your window pane)
I’m gonna rap on your door (tap on)
Tap on your window pane (tap on)
Open out baby

"Until You Say You Love Me"

"Until You Say You Love Me"



Say, can't I hear you say somethin'

Deep inside, fall on the wall
That's where I find protection from the rain
Since you've been gone, my only friend is yesterday, ooh boy

Telephone won't make a sound
Waitin' here for you to change your mind
You never called, I'm lost in the tears I hide behind, ohh yeah

That's where I'll be
Until you say you love me, ohh
That's where I'll be
Until you say you love me

Late at night I toss and turn
Burnin' memories lingerin' on
I'd give the world just to prove my love for you is strong

All you left is confusion and doubt
Unanswered questions, just where did I fail?
I'm hurt and helpless inside a cold and empty shell, ooh boy

That's where I'll be
Until you say you love me, yeah
That's where I'll be
Until you say you love me

You?re love's sweet reason for livin'
In your arms I found my home
Love's waitin' here for givin'
Like a stone, like a stone, oh

Telephone won't make a sound
Waitin' here for you to change your mind
But you never called and I'm lost in the tears I hide, yeah, behind

That's where I'll be
Until you say you love me
That's where I'll be
Until you say you love me, yeah

That's where I'll be
Until you say you love me, yeah
That's where I'll be
Until you say you say, say, say, say you love me

Till you say you love me
Till you say you love me
Till you say you love me
Till you say you love me

Till you say you love me
Till you say you love me
Till you say you love me

"Walk On By"
(originally by Dionne Warwick)

"Walk On By"
(originally by Dionne Warwick)



If you see me walking down the street
And I start to cry each time we meet
Walk on by, walk on by

Make believe
That you don't see the tears
Just let me grieve
In private 'cause each time I see you
I break down and cry
And walk on by
(Don't stop)
And walk on by
(Don't stop)
And walk on by

I just can't get over losing you
And so if I seem broken and blue
Walk on by, walk on by

Foolish pride
Is all that I have left
So let me hide
The tears and the sadness you gave me
When you said goodbye
Walk on by
And walk on by
And walk by
(Don't stop)

Walk on by, walk on by
Foolish pride
Is all that I have left
So let me hide
The tears and the sadness you gave me
When you said goodbye
Walk on by
(Don't stop)
And walk on by
(Don't stop)
And walk by
(Don't stop)

"What A Difference A Day Makes"

"What A Difference A Day Makes"



What a difference a day made
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 difference 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 difference a day made
And the difference is you

What a difference 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 difference a day made
And the difference is you

"What A Fool Believes"

"What A Fool Believes"



He came from somewhere back in her long ago
The sentimental fools don’t see tryin’ hard
To recreate what had yet to be created once in her life
She musters a smile for his nostalgic tale
Never coming near what he wanted to say, hey, only to realize
It never really was

He had a place in her life
She never made him think twice
As he rises to her apology
Anybody else would surely know
He’s watching her go

And what a fool believes, he sees
No wise man has the power, oh yeah, to reason away, now
What seems to be
Is always better than nothing, oh yeah
Nothing at all, nothing at all

Keeps sending him somewhere back in her long ago
He can still believe there’s a place in her life
Hey, someday, somewhere, she will return

He had a place in her life, oh oh
She never made him think twice
As he rises to her apology
Anybody else would surely know
He’s watching her go, oh yeah

What a fool believes, he sees
No wise man has the power, oh yeah, to reason away, yeah
And what seems to be
Is always better than nothing, oh oh oh oh oh yeah
Nothing at all, nothing at all

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Get down, get it now, uh
Get down, get it now
Get down, get it now, oh

(What a fool believes, he sees) Uh, uh
(No wise man has the power) No wise man has the power
(To reason away) Oh, to reason away, yeah
(What a fool believes, he sees) What a fool believes, oh, he sees
No wise man has the power
To reason away, yeah, yeah

"What A Friend We Have In Jesus"

"What A Friend We Have In Jesus"



What a friend we have in Jesus,
All our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer!
Oh what peace we often forfeit,
Oh what needless pain we bear,
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer.

Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged,
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Can we find a friend so faithful
Who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness,
Take it to the Lord in prayer.

Are we weak and heavy laden,
Cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Savior, still our refuge,
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?
Take it to the Lord in prayer!
In his arms he'll take and shield thee,
Thou wilt find a solace there.
