"Softly, As In A Morning Sunrise"

"Softly, As In A Morning Sunrise"


Softly as in a mornin' sunrise
The light of love comes stealing
Into a newborn day.

Flamin' with all the glow of sunrise
A burning kiss is sealing
The vow that all betray.

For the passions that thrill love
Lift you high to heaven
Are the passions that kill love
And lead ya down to hell
Same old story ...

Softly as in an evenin' sunset
The light that gave you glory
Will take it all away.

For the passions that thrill love
And lift you high to heaven
Are the passions that kill love
And lead ya into hell
Same old story ...

Softly, softly as in an evenin' sunset, sunset
The light that gave you glory
Will take it all away.

"Say Richard ... I don't wanna be a drag or anything,
But the title of this tune is 'Softly' so could we do it that way, please?"
Softly, softly as in an evenin' sunset, sunset
The light that gave you glory
Will take it all away.

"Some Of These Days"

"Some Of These Days"


Some of these days
You're gonna miss me, baby (Aw... play it, lips!)
Some of these days
You'll feel so lonely.

You're gonna miss my huggin'
You'll miss my kissin'
You may even miss me, baby
When I'm gone away.

You're gonna feel lonely
And want me only
'cause you know, honey
Kinda always had your way.

Say baby if ya leave me, oh yes oh yes...
You know it's gonna grieve me
You're gonna miss your boney little daddy
'cause one of these... YEAH!
Said some of these days (Aw... do it, Sophie!)
You're gonna miss me honey, huh...
And I'm talkin' about da-a-ays
When you feel all lonely.

You're gonna miss my huggin'
You're gonna miss my kissin'
You may even miss me, honey
When I'm long gone away...

I hope you feel lonely
And want me only
'cause you know lover
Ya always had your way.

And if-a you-a-a leave me
You know it's gonna grie-ee-ee-ve me
You'll miss-a your brown-eyed daddy (Grab it now!)
Some of these daaaaa-ays...

"Somebody To Love"

"Somebody To Love"


I've been all over this country
Been half way 'round the world
I've been traveling so dog gone much
That I haven't got a steady girl

Somebody to love (Somebody to love)
Somebody to love (Somebody to love)
Somebody to call me turtledove
Somebody to love

Yes I guess I've been lucky
I've had me fortune and fame
But I would give up my roman ways
Just to change some girlie's name

Somebody to love (Somebody to love)
Somebody to love (Somebody to love)
Somebody to call me turtledove
Somebody to love

I've been hurtin' (He's been hurtin')
Such a long, long time (Long, long time)
I've been searchin' (He's been searchin')
Where's that girl of mine

Won't you hear me now,
If there's somebody listenin'
Won't you hear my plea?
Won't you send me a good, good girl
To spend her life with me

Somebody to love (Somebody to love)
Somebody to love (Somebody to love)
Somebody to call me turtledove
Somebody to love
I've been hurtin' (He's been hurtin')
Such a long, long time (Long, long time)
I've been searchin' (He's been searchin')
Where's that girl of mine

Won't you hear me now,
If there's somebody listenin'
Won't you hear my plea?
Won't you send me a good, good girl
To spend her life with me

Somebody to love (Somebody to love)
Somebody to love (Somebody to love)
Somebody to call me turtledove
Somebody to love

Somebody to love (Somebody to love)
Somebody to love (Somebody to love)
Somebody to call me turtledove
Somebody to love...

"Something In Your Smile"

"Something In Your Smile"


Something in your smile speaks to me
Something in your eyes shows me the way
And helps me to say the things
That I could never say to you

Something in your voice sings to me
Something in your laugh makes me rejoice
And there is no choice except
To let my thoughts all stray to you
And stray to you they do

Something in you is rich and rare
And there is something more
Something in you is everything
I've never known before

Something of your charm clings to me
Something of your warmth has stayed in my heart
And made me a part of you for just a little while
So think of me as something in your smile
Please think of me as something in your smile

"Something To Remember You By"

"Something To Remember You By"


Oh, give me something to remember you by
When you are far away from me
Just a little something, meaning love cannot die
No matter where you chance to be

So I'll pray for you, night and day for you
It will see me through like a charm 'til you return
So give me something I can remember you by
When you are far away from me

So I'll pray for you, every single day for you
It will see me through like a charm until you return
Give me something, something to remember you by
When you are far away from me

"Somewhere"

"Somewhere"


Somewhere beyond the sea
Somewhere, waiting for me
My lover stands on golden sands
And watches the ships that go sailing

Somewhere beyond the sea
He's
(She's)
There watching for me

If I could fly like birds on high
Then straight to his
(Her)
Arms I'd go sailing

It's far beyond, a star
It's near beyond the moon
I know beyond a doubt
My heart will lead me there soon

We'll meet beyond the shore
We'll kiss just as before
Happy we'll be, beyond the sea
And never again I'll go sailing

"Sorrow Tomorrow"

"Sorrow Tomorrow"


Sorrow, tomorrow
Sorrow, tomorrow...

Makin' eyes at all the guys
While you dance with me
I must be blind to love your kind
'cause it's so plain to see...

If I should love you
For more than tonight...

There would be sorrow
There would be heartache
There would be sorrow, tomorrow.

Havin' fun with anyone
Livin' for today
My achin' heart is torn apart
I just can't live that way...

If I should love you
For more than tonight...

There would be sorrow
There would be heartache
There would be sorrow, tomorrow.

Trouble's waitin' just around the corner
Heartache's waitin' just around the bend
I don't want to think about tomorrow
'cause tomorrow my happiness could end.

I asked my pride to step aside
I know this love's so wrong
Can't stand the pain
Of lovin' in vain it's not where I belong...

If I should love you
For more than tonight...

There would be sorrow
There would be heartache
There would be sorrow, tomorrow.

You believe me...
There would be sorrow
There would be heartache
There would be sorrow, tomorrow...

I know... you know
That there would be... sorrow
There would be... heartache
There would be sorrow, tomorrow.

"Splish Splash"

"Splish Splash"


Splish splash, I was taking a bath
Long about a Saturday night, yeah
A rub dub, just relaxing in the tub
Thinking everything was alright

Well, I stepped out the tub, put my feet on the floor
I wrapped the towel around me
And I opened the door, and then a
Splish, splash, I jumped back in the bath
Well, how was I to know there was a party going on?

They was a-splishing and a-splashing
Reeling with the feeling
Moving and a-grooving
Rocking and a-rolling, yeah

Bing bang, I saw the whole gang
Dancing on my living room rug, yeah
Flip flop, they was doing the bop
All the teens had the dancing bug

There was Lollipop with-a Peggy Sue
Good golly, Miss Molly was-a even there, too
A-well-a, splish splash, I forgot about the bath
I went and put my dancing shoes on, yeah

I was a rolling and a-strolling
Reeling with the feeling
Moving and a-grooving
Splishing and a-splashing, yeah

Yes, I was a-splishing and a-splashing
I was a-rolling and a-strolling
Yeah, I was a-moving and a-grooving
We was a-reeling with the feeling
We was a-rolling and a-strolling
Moving with the grooving
Splish splash, yeah

Mm, splishing and a-splashing, one time
I was a-splishing and a-splashing, ooh wee
I was a-moving and a-grooving, yeah
I was a-splishing and a-splashing

"Spring Is Here"

"Spring Is Here"


Spring is here! Why doesn't my heart go dancing?
Spring is here! Why isn't the waltz entrancing?
No desire, no ambition leads me
Maybe it's because nobody needs me
Spring is here! Why doesn't the breeze delight me?
Stars appear, why doesn't the night invite me?
Maybe it's because nobody loves me
Spring is here I hear

Spring is here! Why doesn't my heart go dancing?
Spring is here! Why isn't the waltz entrancing?
No desire, no ambition leads me
Maybe it's because nobody needs me
Spring is here! Why doesn't the breeze delight me?
Stars appear, why doesn't the night invite me?
Maybe it's because nobody loves me
Spring is here I hear

"Sunday"

"Sunday"


Sunday
Where has what you stood for gone
Sunday
Have you been asleep
You say keep the faith but there's no faith to keep.

Sunday
Master of a dyin' breed
Sunday
Lyin' in a heap
You say keep the faith but there's no faith to keep.

Sunday
Virgin child who can't wear white
Sunday
Much too late to weep
You say keep the faith but there's no faith to keep.

Sunday
Tellin' lies on history
Sunday
Ain't you in too deep
You say keep the faith but there's no faith to keep.

Sunday
Bow down to the blood you've shed
Sunday
Bodies piled so steep
You say keep the faith but there's no faith to keep.

Sunday
Build your house of solid gold
Sunday
Let the people sleep
You say keep the faith but there's no faith to keep.
You say keep the faith but there's no faith to keep.
