"Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)"

"Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)"


I was five and he was six
We rode on horses made of sticks
He wore black and I wore white
He would always win the fight

Bang bang, he shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down.

Seasons came and changed the time
When I grew up, I called him mine
He would always laugh and say
"Remember when we used to play?"

Bang bang, I shot you down
Bang bang, you hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, I used to shoot you down.

Music played, and people sang
Just for me, the church bells rang.

Now he's gone, I don't know why
And till this day, sometimes I cry
He didn't even say goodbye
He didn't take the time to lie.

Bang bang, he shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down...

"Be In My Heart"

"Be In My Heart"


What did I ever do for you, that you should die for me
And what did I ever give to you, that you should live in me
Now and forever and always true, your love has found a way
As I was, I am and always will be, will be

Be in my heart, be in my head, be in my soul tonight
Live in my words, let it be said, live in my life tonight

Pray that I never take in vain, the name I hold most dear
His love in very heart of me, casts out all doubt and fear
Now and forever and always true, your love has found a way
As I was, I am and always will be, will be

Be in my heart, be in my head, be in my soul tonight
Live in my words, let it be said, live in my life tonight

Tonight we shall sweetly sleep
Tonight by still waters deep
Tonight for my soul to keep, still waters lead me to your
Still waters, I need to drink of your still waters

Now that I know the kind of love that comes to fill me up
Fill me anew with love from you and overflow my cup
Now and forever and always true, your love has found a way
As I was, I am and always will be, will be

Be in my heart, be in my head, be in my soul tonight
Live in my words, let it be said, live in my life tonight

Still waters running deep
Still waters my soul to keep
Still waters it's your love flowing over me

"Be With Me Always"

"Be With Me Always"


May she wake in torment
Never to find
Any kind of comfort
In death
May her lies satanic
That corrupt even now
Bring her back to confront
Me again

These are words of hatred
Words of contempt
Only one who suffered
At the hands and the heart
Of a woman who stole
Both his life and soul

Be with me always
Possess me and haunt me
Take any form
Or take none
Be with me always
In flesh or as a ghost
And you'll learn as the ages run
Learn what your sin has done

Who is my protector?
Whence comes my help?
Who is there to calm me
But she
God shall be my witness
That I pray she will know
Not one moment of rest
In the cold cold ground

Be with me always
Consume and invade me
Take any shape or disguise
Be with me always
To share all my despair
And to learn nothing justifies
Reckless inhuman lies

Here comes the night
The abyss unrelenting
Casting all reason aside
And I see in myself
All the things I see in you
Hear the savage I am crying
Be with me always...

Be bop a lu la
She's my baby

"Better Day"

"Better Day"


I've sailed an ocean
I've sailed an ocean before you
Thought I was free
Thought that I was free before I met you

Now I'm no longer the same
I've found the dream that
I have been waiting for
I'm always calling your name
Feeling joy that I never knew before
Let's celebrate this better day

I've climbed a mountain
I've climbed a mountain before you
Thought I was wise
Thought I was wise before I met you

Now everything is so clear
I want to be beside you,
Won't ever leave you
And I am so lost in love
That every day I'm waiting for you

I just want to here with you
Just want to be with you
Just want to be where you are,
It's all I need
And we'll celebrate this better day

This destiny
Has been designed for me by someone
This mystery
Has all the signs to make me hold on

There'll come a day I know now
A better day when we will belong together
It's just a touch away now
Just a kiss and we will be there

I just want to here with you
Just want to be with you
Just want to be where you are,
It's all I need
And we'll celebrate this better day

It's just a touch away now
Just a kiss and we will be there

I just want to here with you
Just want to be with you
Just want to be where you are,
It's all I need
And we'll celebrate this better day

This better day
This better day

"Better Than I Know Myself"

"Better Than I Know Myself"


You were there - at the moment I began
When the child became a man
Saw my future in the making - saw the path my life was taking
You saw a million things I'll never understand

You know me better than I know myself
Better than I know myself
Time after time you've shown it to be true
That no one loves me like you

You are here so let it rain or let it shine
You are with me all the time
When I'm waking - When I'm sleeping
In the secret thoughts I'm keeping
You know everything about this heart of mine

You know me better than I know myself
Better than I know myself
Time after time you've shown it to be true
That no one loves me like you

You'll be there - when the end of time has come
And I know you'll take me home
So I thank you for tomorrow
All my joys and all my sorrows
And I thank you for the greatest thing I've known

You know me better than I know myself
Better than I know myself
Time after time you've shown it to be true
That no one loves me like you

"Bewitched, Bothered And Bewildered"

"Bewitched, Bothered And Bewildered"


She's a fool and don't I know it?
But a fool can have her charms
I'm in love and don't I show it?
Like a babe in arms

Love's the same old sad sensation
Lately, I've not slept a wink
Since this silly situation
Has me on the blink

I'm wild again, beguiled again
A simpering, whimpering child again
Bewitched, bothered, and bewildered am I

Couldn't sleep, wouldn't sleep
Then love came and told me I shouldn't sleep
Bewitched, bothered, and bewildered am I

Lost my heart, but what of it?
She is cold, I agree
She might laugh, but I love it
Although the laugh's on me

I'll sing to her, bring spring to her
And long for the day when I'll cling to her
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered am I

"Big Ship"

"Big Ship"


I do believe my eyes are telling me lies
I saw a ship ashore, a baked apple pie
Hide in corners and climbing up trees
Love is a big ship, following me

Big ship, following me
Love is a big ship, following me

Some like it cool, some like it hot
You see me cool, like a fool, with all the lovin' I got
Passing the world and the world's passing me
Love is a big ship, following me

Big ship, following me
Love is a big ship, following me

Just like, just like a big ship
Just like, just like a big ship
Just like, just like a big ship
Following me, following me

Make me feel good, while you're shakin' me down
Singers are singing dubidu all the town
Dubiduda, singing dubidudi
Love is a big ship, following me

Make me feel good, while you're shakin' me down
Singers are singing dubidu all the town
Dubiduda, singing dubidudi
Love is a big ship, following me

Big ship, following me
Love is a big ship, following me

Just like, just like a big ship
Just like, just like a big ship
Just like, just like a big ship
Following me, following me
Following me, following me

"Blame It On The Bossa Nova"

"Blame It On The Bossa Nova"


I was at a dance when he caught my eye
Standin' all alone lookin' sad and shy
We began to dance, swaying' to and fro
And soon I knew I'd never let him go

Blame it on the bossa nova with its magic spell
Blame it on the bossa nova that he did so well
Oh, it all began with just one little dance
But then it ended up a big romance
Blame it on the bossa nova
The dance of love

(Now was it the moon?)
No, no, the bossa nova
(Or the stars above?)
No, no, the bossa nova
(Now was it the tune?)
Yeah, yeah, the bossa nova
(The dance of love)

Now I'm glad to say I'm his bride to be
And we're gonna raise a family
And when our kids ask how it came about
I'm gonna say to them without a doubt

Blame it on the bossa nova with its magic spell
Blame it on the bossa nova that he did so well
Oh, it all began with just one little dance
But then it ended up a big romance
Blame it on the bossa nova
The dance of love

(Now was it the moon?)
No, no, the bossa nova
(Or the stars above?)
No, no, the bossa nova
(Now was it the tune? )
Yeah, yeah, the bossa nova
(The dance of love)

(Now was it the moon?)
No, no, the bossa nova
(Or the stars above?)
No, no, the bossa nova
