"Sometimes Love"

"Sometimes Love"


Sometimes love is like a loaded gun
Sometimes the best thing to do is run
Sometimes love is like a rolling dice
Sometimes it's a seven, sometimes snake eyes

You know it's not for those afraid to risk it
Play it safe and you're sure to miss it
It's for those of us who love to gamble
So lay your bets down

Sometimes love is like an ace high straight
You could lose your shirt or you could win the day
Sometimes love is like a runaway train
You might survive it but the odds aren't great

If it makes you nervous don't ya sweat it son
Don't ya know the danger's half the fun
So take a deep breath and hold on tight
Just strap yourself in and enjoy the ride

"Somewhere Along The Way"

"Somewhere Along The Way"


I used to walk with you
Along the avenue
Our hearts were carefree and gay
How could I know I’d lose you?
Somewhere along the way

The friends we used to know
Would always smile “hello”
No love like our love they’d say
Then love slipped through our fingers
Somewhere along the way

I should forget
But with the loneliness of night
I start remembering everything
You’re gone and yet
There’s still a feeling deep inside
That you will always be part of me

So now I look for you
Along the avenue
And as I wander I pray
That some day soon I’ll find you
Somewhere along the way

You will always be part of me
So now I look for you
Along the avenue
And as I wander I pray
That some day soon I’ll find you
Somewhere along the way
Somewhere along the way

"Somewhere Over The Rainbow"

"Somewhere Over The Rainbow"


Oooooo...
Somewhere over the rainbow,
Way up high.
There's a land that I heard of,
Once in a lullaby.
Somewhere over the rainbow,
Skies are blue.
And the dreams that you dare to dream,
Really do come true.

Someday I'll wish upon a star,
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops,
High above the chimney tops.
That's where you'll find me.
Somewhere over the rainbow,
Bluebirds fly.

They fly over the rainbow,
Why then - oh, why can't I?
I see trees of green, red roses too.
I watch them bloom for me and you.
And I think to myself,
What a wonderful world.
Well, I see skies of blue and I see clouds of white.
The brightness of day and light, darkness of night.
And I think to myself,
What a wonderful world.

The colours of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky,
Are also on the faces of people passin' by.
I see friends shakin' hands, saying "How do you do!"
They're really sayin' "I love you."
I hear babies cry and I watch them grow.
They'll learn much more than I'll ever know.
And I think to myself,
What a wonderful world.

Someday I'll wish upon a star,
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops,
High above the chimney tops.
That's where you'll find me.
Somewhere over the rainbow,
Way up high.
Birds fly over the rainbow,
Why then - oh, why can't I?
Oooooo...

"Son Of Thunder"

"Son Of Thunder"


Eight o'clock and it's way past time
Feelin' good I'm gonna make it tonight
It's so good when you feel this right
Out here underneath the spotlight
I'm not lonely, not lonely, not lonely
'cos I'm doing it right
You see I put my heart in his hand, I'm a son of thunder
Underneath the spotlight

So many fall at the break of day
But I'm a winner come what may
'cos it matters 'bout the way you choose
Choose him and you just can't lose
It's not lonely, not lonely, not lonely
When you're doin' it right
Why don't you put your heart in his hand, be a son of thunder
Underneath the spotlight

Put yourself in my place it would be a disgrace
Left with egg all over your face
Would you come back so soon if I sang out of tune
I could be howlin' at the moon
You can see me tonight standing under the light
And I'll be singing a song that's true
Maybe someday you'll find that you're no longer blind
And the light will sing for you

Twelve o'clock and I'm on my way
Another town, it's another day
Got a message that you just can't buy
I've got to tell it and that is why
I'm not lonely, not lonely, not lonely
'cos I'm doing it right
You see I put my heart in his hand, I'm a son of thunder
Underneath the spotlight

"Spanish Harlem"

"Spanish Harlem"


There is a rose in Spanish Harlem
A red rose up in Spanish Harlem
It is a special one
That never sees the sun
And only comes out when the moon is on the run
And all the stars are gleaming
I'm goin' to pick that rose
And watch her as she grows
In my garden

There is a rose in Spanish Harlem
A red rose up in Spanish Harlem
With eyes as black as coal
That look down in my soul
And starts a fire there and then I lose control
I have to beg your pardon

I'm goin' to pick that rose
And watch her as she grows
In my garden

With eyes as black as coal
That look down in my soul
And starts a fire there and then I lose control
I have to beg your pardon

I'm goin' to pick that rose
And watch her as she grows
In my garden

I'm goin' to pick that rose
And watch her as she grows
In my garden

In Spanish Harlem

"Spider Man"

"Spider Man"


He's the footsteps in the night
Shadows gone before the light
Never get to see the face
Of spider man

Catcing flies just ain't his style
If you're crooked stop think awhile
Once bitten - never the same
He makes a black widow look tame
Spider man

He spins a golden web
With a golden thread
That never, never let's him down, down, down
And when the spidercatcher comes to town
He ain't around

If you're walking in the park
And hear a shuffling in the dark
Don't stop to give it a glance
You know there's a pretty good chance
It's spider man, spider man
Once bitten never the same
He makes a black widow look tame
Spider man

"Start All Over Again"

"Start All Over Again"


Rock and roll music isn't goin' on the way it should be
We're gettin' in so we can't see the wood from the tree
You know security can be so tight
That I can't get away to play at night

Got to find a place make a little space
Start all over again ooh all over again

So simple when you only need electric guitar
Two records and I'm an international star
They introduced me as the boy next door
But I don't live in that street no more

Well I've got to find a place make a little space

Start all over again ooh all over again
Start all over

I've got to find myself a living doll
Who's always ready when I make my call

Well I've got to find a place make a little space
Start all over again...all over again

I've got to find a place make a little space
Start all over again
Start all over
Rock'n'roll music isn't rock'n'roll...

"Stood Up"
(originally by Ricky Nelson)

"Stood Up"
(originally by Ricky Nelson)



Well, I've been waitin' ever since eight
Guess my baby's got another date
Stood up, broken-hearted, again

I'll bet she's out havin' a ball
Not even thinkin' of me at all
Stood up, broken-hearted, again

Well, I know just what I oughta do
I oughta find somebody new
But, baby, I couldn't forget about you
Stood up, broken-hearted, again

[Instrumental break]

Why must I always be the one
Left behind never havin' any fun?
Stood up, broken-hearted, again

But I guess I'll go on bein' a fool
Sittin' around just waitin' for you
Stood up, broken-hearted, again

Well, I know just what I oughta do
I oughta find somebody new
But, baby, I couldn't forget about you
Stood up, broken-hearted, again

Stood up, broken-hearted, again
Stood up, broken-hearted, again

"Stranger In Town"

"Stranger In Town"


Every girl is a beautiful girl,
When you're a stranger in town.
And every chick looks so cute and slick,
When you're all alone and all down.

And then a smile will open the door
And in a little while, you'll be a stranger no more.
But till then, every girl is a beautiful girl,
When you're a stranger, in many towns.

And then a smile will open the door
And in a little while, you'll be a stranger no more.
But till then, every girl is a beautiful girl,
When you're a stranger, your heart is in danger,
When you're a stranger in town.

"Stronger Than That"

"Stronger Than That"


Well I heard you weren't staying
Heard you weren't staying around
That someone has gotten to you
Something 'bout a new kid in town

Well stranger things have happened
Stranger things have happened in love
But the more I think about
The more I see that you are a victim of

Well don't believe everything they say
They're only jealous of you
How people talk when they
Don't know the truth
Don't ever let them get to you

My love is stronger than that
My love is poetry in motion
My love is deeper than that
My love is deeper than the ocean

Well if anyone should harm you
Anyone should get in your way
And you need someone to talk to
Please call me right away

Let them all listen
Listen to the new kid in town
It's the same old story
The story's been around and around

So don't believe everything they say
They're only jealous of you
How people talk when they
Don't know the truth
Don't ever let them tell you what to do

My love is stronger than that
My love is poetry in motion
My love is deeper than that
My love is deeper than the ocean

So don't believe everything they say
They're only jealous of you
How people talk when they
Don't know the truth
Don't ever let them tell you what to do

My love is stronger than that
My love is poetry in motion
My love is deeper than that
My love is deeper than the ocean

My love is stronger than that
My love is poetry in motion
My love is deeper than that
My love is deeper than the ocean
