"The Snake And The Bookworm"

"The Snake And The Bookworm"


Across in the glasses like a snake
And he follows every step she takes
He tracks her down on the way to school
And she thinks she’s the sneaky fool

She wants to get her homework done
He wants to go and have some fun
The snake and the bookworm
The snake and the bookworm

She’s trying to pass geography
And he’s trying to kiss every girl he sees
Well she’s got a test, she don’t want to fail
And he’s pulling on her ponytail

She’s thinking about her education
He’s thinking about his recreation
The snake and the bookworm
The snake and the bookworm

Well, the snake caught bookworm one fine day
Yeah and he wouldn’t let her get away
Umm, man then he kissed her just one time
And a smoothing happened to his mind
Well, now he sings the deep run song
She’s been studying the whole night long

The snake and the bookworm
The snake and the bookworm
The snake and the bookworm

"The Time In Between"

"The Time In Between"


I watch the sun every morning I see the moon at night
But there's a time, time in between That I don't see a light,
I don't see it, no no no
That I don't see a light

I hear your footsteps in the hall I hear your knock on the door
But there's a time, time in between That I don't hear you there at all,
I don't hear you, no no
That I don't hear you there at all

The way you used my love
It makes me cry, it makes me cry
The way you threw me up
It makes me die, it makes me die

I watch the sun every morning I see the moon at night
But there's a time, time in between That I don't see a light,
I don't see it, no no
That I don't see a light

But there's a time, time in between
That I don't hear you there at all, not at all, no no
That I don't hear you there at all

The way you used my love
It makes me cry, it makes me cry
The way you threw me up
It makes me die, it makes me die

I watch the sun every morning I see the moon at night
But there's a time, time in between
That I don't see a light,
I don't see it, no no no
That I don't see a light, light, light, light, light

"The Touch Of Your Lips"

"The Touch Of Your Lips"


The touch of your lips upon my brow
Your lips that are cool and sweet
Such tenderness lies in their soft caress
My heart forgets to beat

The touch of your hands upon my hair
The love in your eyes a shine
And now at last, the moment Devine
The touch of your lips on mine

The love in your eyes a shine
And now at last, the moment Devine
The touch of your lips on mine

"The Twelfth Of Never"

"The Twelfth Of Never"


You ask how much I need you
Must I explain
I-I need you oh my darlin'
Like roses ned rain
You ask how long I'll love you
I-I'll tell you true
Until the twelfth of never
I'll still be loving you

Ho-old me close
Never let me go
Ho-ho-old me close
Me-elt my heart like April snow-ow

I'll love you 'til the blue be-ells
Forget to bloom
I'll love you 'til the clover
Has lost its perfume
I-I'll love you 'til the poets
Run out of rhyme
you-you-until the twelfth of never
And that's a long long time

Until the twelfth of never
And that's - a - long - long - time...
A long-long time...

"The Water Is Wide"

"The Water Is Wide"


The water is wide I can't cross over
And neither have I got wings to fly
Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row my love and I

Oh love is gentle and love is kind
The sweetest flower when first it's new
But the only love never waxing cold
Is the love He offers to me and you

Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row my love and I

There's a ship and she sails the sea
She's loaded deep as deep can be
And even deeper than the love I'm in
If I step on board then our love begins
Got to step on board let our love begin
(Water is wide and I've got to cross over)

"The Word Is Love"

"The Word Is Love"


Suddenly it seems all the words I know,
Won't paint the picture,
How can I explain all the things I feel,
In just one life?

However, I know that,
There must be a word, that will fit this scene like a glove
The more I think about it, the more I know,
The word is love

And if I decline to become involved,
In conversations,
It's not that I don't care how the other half,
Is making out

Well, maybe, tomorrow
I'll try to encourage the eagle to fly with the dove,
But here and now I offer my one excuse,
And the word is love

Well, maybe, tomorrow
I'll try and encourage the eagle to fly with the dove,
But here and now I offer my one excuse,
And the word is love

"The Young Ones"

"The Young Ones"


The young ones,
Darling we're the young ones,
And young ones shouldn't be afraid.

To live, love
While the flame is strong,
For we won't be the young ones very long.

Tomorrow,
Why wait till tomorrow,
Tomorrow sometimes never comes.
Love, me,
There's a song to be sung
And the best time is to sing while we're young.

Once in every lifetime
Comes a love like this.
I need you and you need me.
Oh my darling can't you see.
Young dreams
Should be dreamed together,
Young hearts shouldn't be afraid.
And some day when the years have flown
Darling, this will teach the young ones of our own.
The young ones
Darling, we're the young ones
The young ones
Darling, we're the young ones.

"Theme For A Dream"

"Theme For A Dream"


You are my theme for a dream
Yes you are, a rare and lovely theme (You're a theme for a dream)
The dreams I dream day and night
That your arms are holding me so tight (You're a theme for a dream)

"There'll Never Be Anyone Else But You"

"There'll Never Be Anyone Else But You"


There'll never be anyone else but you for me
Never ever be just couldn't be
Anyone else but you

If I could take my pick of all the girls
I've ever known
Then I'd come and pick you out to be my very own

There'll never be anyone else but you for me
Never ever be just couldn't be
Anyone else but you

I never will forget the way you kissed me
And when we're not together I wonder if you miss me
'Cause I hope and I pray the day will come
When you belong to me then I am gonna prove to you
How true my love can be

I never will forget the way you kissed me
And when we're not together I wonder if you miss me
'Cos I hope and I pray the day will come
When you'll belong to me
'Cause then I'm gonna prove to you

"There's A Honky Tonk Angel"

"There's A Honky Tonk Angel"


When was the last time you kissed me
And I don't mean a touch now and then
It's been a long time since you felt like my woman
And even longer since I felt like your man

So tell me if you think it's over
And I'll leave it up to you how it ends
'Cause if you don't want the love I can give you
Well there's a honky tonk angel who will take me back in

You never look at me and say "I love you"
How much more do you think I can stand
Oh, there's an old friend out there and she's waiting
Lord, she's happy just holding my hand

So tell me if you think it's over
And I'll leave it up to you how it ends
'Cause if you don't want the love I can give you
Well there's a honky tonk angel who will take me back in
Yes, there's a honky tonk angel who will take me back in
