"Love In The Afternoon"

"Love In The Afternoon"



Love in the afternoon
Love in the afternoon
Hum...
He walked right up and told me
That he liked my style
I noticed something different
In the way he smiled
He said you're quite a lady
And I know a place that's shady
Would you care to come
And lie with me a while
And deep in my soul
I could feel a quiver
When he went down
And found that sweet old river
And he showed me the way
To find love in the afternoon
(Love in the afternoon)
Mmm...
(Love in the afternoon)
I knew he was a stranger
But I didn't care
We had something in common
But it wasn't clear
You said that life's a lover
When you're loving like no other
Don't you think it's time
For you to get your share
And deep in my soul
I could feel a quiver
When he went down
And found that sweet old river
And he showed me the way
(Showed me the way)
To find love in the afternoon
(Love in the afternoon, hum...
Love in the afternoon)
I never could remember
Or recall his name
But I hang on to that memory
Just the same
You know it makes me crazy
It makes my head all hazy
To think about the way he play that game
Cause deep in my soul
(Deep in my soul)
I could feel a quiver
(I could feel a quiver)
When he went down
And found that sweet old river
And he showed me the way
(Showed me the way)
To find love in the afternoon
(Love in the afternoon)
(Afternoon... ah...)
Yes, deep in my soul
I could feel a quiver
When he went down
And found that sweet old river
And he showed me the way to find...
Showed me and showed me
And showed me the way to find
Love in the afternoon
(Love in the afternoon)
Mmm...Mmm...
(Love in the afternoon)
Mmm...

"Love Is A Bore"

"Love Is A Bore"



Here is a verse unlike any verse
To a song that you've never heard
It deals with the subject that I and the authors agree
Is at best absurd
Love is a bore
Love is a ball game without a score
Love is a sail boat without a sail
The lock on the candy store
Asparagus without the hollandaise
Plus all the petty laughs
In Tennesse Williams' plays
I used to love it but now it's a drag
Love is a flag pole without a flag
Love is the mailman without the mail
A comic without a gag
A soap-opera plot and lots lots more
But mainly I mean love is a bore

It's I'll-call-you-tomorrow
It's a phone that never rings
It's a sack full of sorrow
Or a ride on angel's wings
So just remember the next time you soar
Love is an exit without a door
But if you're in love you'll ignore
All the things that I've said here before

And you'll pray that your love
Whatever he does
Will come back and be
The bore that he was
Before!

"Love Is Like A New Born Child"

"Love Is Like A New Born Child"



Love's beginning
Hearts enchanted
Full of bright new dreams
But we can't take love for granted
For to me it seems
A new love is like a new born child
Tender and sweet and a-need of care
Precious indeed
Is the lave we share
Like a new born child
Like a tiny baby
Till it grows up strong
You lullaby a new love
With a happy song
Because a new love
Is like a new born child
Cherished adored
To hold it close
Give it your love
And just let it grow
And grow to be something sure
Something grand
Something heaven must have planned
Like a tiny new born child
Like a lovely
New born child...

"Love Is Only Love"

"Love Is Only Love"


[Dolly:]
Horace Vandergelder, Mrs. Horace Vandergelder
Just leave ev'rything to me
Though it wont be like the first time
How can it be like the first time?
But Why does it have to be?
Don't look for shooting stars
For love is only love
You touch and still you touch the proud
Don't listen for those bells
For love is only love
And if it's love you've found
Your heart won't hear a sound
And you hold his hand
You only hold his hand
The violins are all a bluff
But if you're really wise
The silence of his eyes
Will tell you
Love is only love
And it's wonderful enough
Without the shooting star
Without the sounds of bells
Without the violins
Love is wonderful enough!

"Love Light"

"Love Light"



Love Light shine on me
Make it last this time
'Cause I think I might find out
That there's no rehearsal
And, I don't want to miss one bit if this is it
Here's my prayer
We can make it last
If we learn to tell the truth
And to trust each other
And be unafraid of what we'll see
With time and love we learn
When we accept each other
That's when our lives can come together
Let him stay by my side
If it lasts this time
Then the shadows of the past
Will remain behind us
And finally we will be free
With time and love we learn
We have this chance to grow
We have this chance to know each other
Time, all we need is time to feel
All of the love inside us
And then our lives will come together
I know with time and love
Shine on both of us tonight
With love and light
Nothing's gonna change our love tonight
With love and light
Shine on me tonight
With time and love...

"Love Like Ours"

"Love Like Ours"


I look at you and there it is.
The ultimate in where it is
And realize how rare it is
This finding your love.
You try so many arms
When you are lonely.
To find the one and only.
One day you turn and he's there.
Amazing how serene it is.
The shade of evergreen, it is.
Exactly what we mean, it is.
And knew it would be.
When love like ours arrives
We guard it with our lives.
Whatever goes astray
When a rainy day comes around
A love like ours will keep us safe and sound.
[Humming]

When love like ours arrives
We guard it with our lives.
Whatever goes astray
What rainy day comes around
Love like ours will keep us safe and sound.

"Love Me Tender"
(with Elvis Presley)

"Love Me Tender"
(with Elvis Presley)



Wasn't it just yesterday
When you held me near
Whispering the sweetest words
That I longed to hear

Love me tender,
Love me sweet,
Never let me go
You have made my life complete,
And I love you so

Love me tender,
Love me true,
All my dreams fulfilled
For my darlin' I love you,
And I always will

Love me tender, (love me tender)
Love me long,
Take me to your heart
For it's there that I belong,
And we'll never part

Love me tender,
Love me true
All my dreams fulfilled
For my darlin I love you,
And I always will

Love me tender,
Love me true,
Tell me that your mine
I'll be yours through all the years,
Till the end of time

Love me tender,
Love me true,
All my dreams fulfilled
For my darlin I love you,
And I always will
And I always will

"Love With All The Trimmings"

"Love With All The Trimmings"



My dearest love who existed in a dream
Till this evening when a wave came and swept me out to sea
None of the loves that you have known
Could prepare you for the love raging everywhere in me
For all the arms that have covered you the hands
That have touched you and the lips
You have lingered on before
Added together would be less than an olive
In the banquet of love I have in store
Love season to entice
Love with all the trimmings filled with spice
Love flavored to your whim
Served piping hot with all the trimmings...Ooo...
For I'll decode every breath and every sigh
Till your every lover's wish
Is fulfilled before it's made
Toss in some jealousy and doubt
Should it be required
Not to rest till there's nothing more desired
Thus loving as I do
Never, never will you ever be untrue
Having love with all the trimmings
Waiting home for you...

"Lover Man"

"Lover Man"



I don't know why, but I'm feeling so sad
I long to try something I've never had
Never had no kissing
Ooh, what I've been missing
Lover man, oh, where can you be?
The night is cold, and I'm all so alone
I'd give my soul, just to call you my own
Got the moon above me, but no one to love me...
Lover man, oh, where can you be?
I've heard it's said that the thrill of romance can't be
Like the heavenly dream
I go to bed with the prayer
That you'll make my love to me
Strange as it may seem
Some day we'll meet
And you'll dry all my tears
And whisper sweet
Little things in my ears
Hugging and then kissing
Hum, what I've been missing
Lover man oh where can you be?

"Lover, Come Back To Me"

"Lover, Come Back To Me"



Sky was blue and high above
The moon was new and so was love
This eager heart of mine was singing
Lover, where can you be
It came at last love had its day
The day is past, you've gone away
This eager heart of mine is singing
Lover, come to me
I remember every little thing you used to do
I-I'm lonely
Every road I walk along,
I've walked along with you
No wonder I am lonely
The sky is blue, the night is cold
The moon is new, but love is old
And while I'm waiting here
This heart of mine is singing
Lover, come to me
When I remember every little thing you used to do
Huh-huh...I'm lonely
Every road I walk along,
I've walked along with you
No wonder I am lonely
The sky is blue, the night is cold
The moon is new, but love is old
And while I'm standing here
This heart of mine is singing
Lover, lover, get here to me...
Now!
