"More"

"More"


More than the greatest love the world has known,
This is the love I give to you alone,
More than the simple words I try to say,
I only live to love you more each day,
More than you'll ever know
My arms long to hold you so,
My life will be in your keeping
Waking, sleeping, laughing, weeping,
Longer than always is a long, long time
But far beyond forever you'll be mine...
I know I never lived before
And my heart is very sure
No one else could love you more...

Yes, I, I know I never lived before
And my heart is very sure
No one else could love you more,
Love you more, love you more,
Love you more, love you more...

"More Than A Memory"

"More Than A Memory"


He just walks into my mind and makes himself at home
Just like nothing ever happened at all
And it doesn't take him long to turn the pain back on
And bring my hidden teardrops out to tall
He's more than just a memory he's got to be
He does more than just a memory can do to me
He's more than just a memory of someone I once knew
He's more than a memory he's a memory of you
Makes no difference how I try my heart can't break the tie
He's the one thing I can never leave behind
And no matter where I go hell be waitin' there I know
To steal each new tomorrow that I find

"Must I Believe"

"Must I Believe"


Must I believe in every breath of life
And the bitter taste of salt from the sea
Must I believe in those that cross my path
And life's shadows disappear
Why must there always be a place
Or a time a mountain to climb
Why must the poets write tomorrow's too late
Why can't they find something else to say
Must I believe in the absence of your love
And the hope you will return to me
Must I believe in the dreams of yesterday,
They seem so far away
Must I believe...

"My Baby Likes Western Guys"


Oh my baby came to my house last night oh yeah
I thought maybe he would hold me tight oh yeah

Had to watch Wyatt Earp too hnd that left me feelin' so doggone blue
Well my baby likes all the western guys oh yeah
He ain't got no use for me tonight oh yeah

My baby likes all the western guys oh yeah

My baby likes all the western guys oh yeah
He ain't got no use for me tonight oh yeah

Oh my baby likes all the western guys oh yeah
He ain't got no use for me tonight oh yeah

"My Colouring Book"
(originally by Barbra Streisand)

"My Colouring Book"
(originally by Barbra Streisand)



For those who fancy coloring books,
And lots of people do.
Here's a new one for you.
A most unusual coloring book,
The kind you never see.
Crayons ready, very well,
Begin to color me.

These are the eyes that watched him
When you walked away,
Color them grey.
This is the heart, that thought he would always be true,
Color it blue.
These are the arms that held him
And touched him and lost him somehow.
Color them empty now.
These are the beads,
I wore until she came between.
Color them green.

This is the room I sleep in, and walk in,
And weep in and die in that nobody sees.
Color it lonely, please.
This is the boy, whose love I depended upon.
Color him gone.

"My Love"

"My Love"


And when I go away,
I know my heart can stay with my love
It's understood, it's in the hands of my love
And my love does it good
Wo-Wo-Wo-Wo-Wo-Wo
My love does it good

And when the cupboard's bare
I'll still find something there with my love
It's understood, it's everywhere with my love
My love does it good
Wo-Wo-Wo-Wo-Wo-Wo
My love does it good

I love oh oh my love
Only my love holds the other key to me
My love oh my love
Only my love does it good to me
Wo-Wo-Wo-Wo-Wo-Wo
My love does it good

Don't ever ask me why
I never say goodbye to my love
It's understood, it's everywhere with my love
And my love does it good
Wo-Wo-Wo-Wo-Wo-Wo
My love does it good

"My Prayer"

"My Prayer"


When the twilight is gone
And no songbird is singing
When the twilight is gone
You come into my heart
And here in my heart you will stay
While I pray

My prayer is to linger with you
At the end of the day
In a dream that's divine

My prayer is a rapture in blue
With the world far away
And your lips close to mine

Tonight, while our hearts are a glow
Oh tell me the words that I'm longing to know

My prayer, and the answer you give
May they still be the same
For as long as we live
That you'll always be there
At the end of my prayer

"My Sweet Baby"

"My Sweet Baby"


Baby, are you crying, do the tears belong to me
Did you think our time together was all gone
Well baby, you've been dreaming.
I'm as close as I can be
And I swear to you, our time has just begun

Close your eyes, and rest your weary mind
I promise, I will stay right here beside you
The day our lives were joined, became entwined
I wish that you could know how much I love you

Baby, are you happy, do you feel the way I do
Are there meanings, that you've never seen before
Baby, my sweet baby,
I just can't believe that its true
And its like...I've never ever loved before

"My Whole World Is Falling Down"

"My Whole World Is Falling Down"


My whole world is falling down, falling down, falling down
My whole world is falling down, I'm losing my baby

Told me that your love for me was true
Said you'd love me your whole life through
But now you're asking me to set you free
You've found some body you love more than me

My whole world is falling down, falling down, falling down
My whole world is falling down, I'm losing my baby

I miss your loving that was so fine
I need it, I need it all of the time
For I still love you in the same old way
Yet I'm losing you a little every day

My whole world is falling down, falling down, falling down
My whole world is falling down, I'm losing my baby

My whole world is falling down, falling down, falling down
My whole world is falling down, I'm losing my baby

"Never My Love"

"Never My Love"


You ask me if there'll come a time
When I grow tired of you
Never my love
Never my love

You wonder if this heart of mind
Will lose it's desire for you
Never my love
Never my love

What makes you think love will end
When you know that my whole life depends on you
You say you fear I'll change my mind
I won't require of you
Never my love
Never my love

How can you think love will end
When I've asked you to spend your whole life with me
You say you fear I'll change my mind
I won't require of you
Never my love
Never my love
