"In Loving Memories"

"In Loving Memories"


I stand here so silent with a blank look on my face
As you lay there dressed in a pure white lace
With my head bowed low Lord the tears are streaming down
I can hear that old preacher man say

In loving memories we gather in loving memories we gather on this sad day
In loving memories forever until we'll meet beyond the shining river

Pretty flowers I'll plant around you and a white fence will surround you
On your marker words of love I'll enscribe
And though in death were apart you know you'll always be in my heart
And it won't be long till I'll be by your side

In loving memories we gather in loving memories we gather on this sad day...

"In My Dreams"

"In My Dreams"


Never quite got over you
I wondered if you missed me too
I tried to call a time or two
You were never home
Tried to call again last night
Number's changed, but that's alright
You wouldn't see me anyway
But that's ok, I'll see you.

In my dreams
And they never let me down
The only way that I have left
Of having you around
In my dreams
And they've saved me up 'till now
But it's funny how a fool can see the light
When the sun goes down.

I never quite got through to you
Like all the others seem to do
Got kinda close a time or two
But not for very long
Ain't it funny how your memory makes
Love stronger than the heartaches
Makes me keep on loving you
The way I do when I see you.

In my dreams
And they never let me down
The only way that I have left
Of having you around
In my dreams
And they've saved me up 'till now
But it's funny how a fool can see the light
When the sun goes down
In my dreams...

"In My Eyes"

"In My Eyes"


She's just a woman
A hundred pounds of flesh and blood
Quick with a smile and soft with a touch for me
She's just a woman
Not the least or the most desired
But she sets one man's heart on fire
And it's me that she wants to please.

And in my eyes
God never made a more beautiful girl
In my eyes
There's no one more lovely in all of the world
And she looks at me at times with such surprise
When she sees how special she is in my eyes.

She's only human
And she cries sometimes when she looks in the mirror
And counts a new line that seemed to appear overnight
She's only human
It's not that she's vain, she's just afraid
That there'll come a time when I'll turn away at the sight
But I swear that's not right.

And in my eyes
She just grows lovelier to me
And in my eyes
She's only aging gracefully
And a thousand strands of gray won't disguise
The woman she'll always be in my eyes.

She's just a woman
Giving her love to only me
Without her help I would be less of a man
Than she thinks I am.

And in my eyes
Love never changes or pretends
In my eyes
Her mystery never ends
And everything I feel as years go by
Makes her love grow sweeter still in my eyes
In my eyes...

"Is A Blue Bird Blue?"

"Is A Blue Bird Blue?"


Well, me and my girl went out the other night
Down lover's lane we were walkin'
She said, "Aw honey child, do you love me?"
Right away I started talkin',
"Is a blue bird blue? Has a cat got a tail?
Mmmm, if a blue bird's blue, well then honey, I love you."

Well. I held her close and kissed her
Then I looked in those big green eyes
She said, "I hear boy that you love me!'
I said, "I wouldn't be at all surprised.
Is a blue bird blue? Can a big wheel roll?
Mmmm, if a blue bird's blue, then honey, I love you."

Well, she finally believed my story
Said, "Baby I understand.
Well, now I'm gonna be your little lovin' girl
And you'll be my big lovin' man.
Is a blue bird blue? Ahh, has a bear got hair?
Mmmm, if a blue bird's blue, well honey, I love you."

Ahhh, is a blue bird blue, baby?
Ah, tell me honey, has a bear got hair?
Oooh, can a big wheel roll?..

"It All Falls Down"

"It All Falls Down"


Yes, it falls down
Everytime we build it up
It all falls down.

When we first fell in love the sun shined bright above
And everything we ever did was right
Love was all we ever knew clouds above were always blue
And all the time we never had a fight.

But time together made a change
The love we have is not the same
It seems that we keep goin' round and round.

We try so hard to build our love
And make it just the way it was
But everytime we build it up
It all falls down.

Yes, it falls down
Our love gets halfway to heaven then falls to the ground
Yes, it falls down.

It's so hard to make love strong
With one day right and two days wrong
And everytime we build it up
It all falls down.

Yes, it falls down
Everytime we build it up
It all falls down...

"It Keeps Right On A Hurtin'"

"It Keeps Right On A Hurtin'"


I cry myself to sleep each night
Wishing I could hold you tight
Life seems so empty since you went away
The pillow where you lay your head
Holds my lonely tears instead
It keeps right on a-hurtin'
Since you're gone.

It keeps right on a'hurtin every minute of the day
Every hour you're away I feel so lonely
And I can't help it, I don't think I can go on
And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone.

They say a man should never cry when I see you passing by
My heart breaks down and cries a million tears
You broke my heart and set me free you forgot your
memories
And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone.

It keeps right on a'hurtin every minute of the day
Every hour you're away I feel so lonely
And I can't help it, I don't think I can go on
And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone...

"It Turns Me Inside Out"

"It Turns Me Inside Out"


In a way I'm glad it's over,
Even though it's gonna hurt me once you're gone
I can learn to live without you,
Give me time and I can make it on my own.

Lovin' you to me came easy
Now losing you will change my life no doubt
And in a way I'm glad it's over,
In another way it turns me inside out.

In a way I guess it's better,
Even though there's nothing good about goodbye
And I know I couldn't hold you,
Now you've found your wings and you need room to fly.

And it's for sure I'm gonna miss you,
But I guess that's what goodbye is all about
And in a way I'm glad it's over,
But in another way it turns me inside out.

On the one hand I know
I'll be better off once you're gone,
But I find a lot of heartache on the other
And I can't say I'll look forward
To those nights I'll spend alone
And I wonder w! ill there ever be another.

Loving you to me came easy,
Now losing you will change my life no doubt
And in a way I'm glad it's over,
In another way it turns me inside out.

Yes, in a way I'm glad it's over,
But in another way it turns me inside out...

"It's A Cryin' Shame"

"It's A Cryin' Shame"


Love walked out the door
It's a cryin' shame
We don't have it no more, no more.
Love walked out the door
It's a cryin' shame
We don't have it no more, no more.

Readin' your letter
I didn't no whether
To call you up and talk again
When I saw the name it signed
Goin' through my mind
Was a memory of way back when.

Now all that I can wish you
Is a good love baby
Sorry that it couldn't be me
'Cause it felt so right
If we held on tight
I'd be with you tonight.
We never should have left our,

Love walked out the door
It's a cryin' shame
We don't have it no more, no more.
Love walked out the door
It's a cryin' shame
We don't have it no more, no more.

I won't forget the summer
My heart was like a drummer
Just beatin' every night away
Walkin' in the sun with you baby
We were one and our new love
Was really ours to stay
Now all I get to keep is a faded picture
You belong to him today
And the memory
Of you and me
Is just a used to be.
We never should have left our,

Love walked out the door
It's a cryin' shame
We don't have it no more, no more.
Love walked out the door
It's a cryin' shame
We don't have, it shame we don't have it.

Love slips through my hands
It's a cryin' shame
I've been playing no game
Love fell at my feet.
It's a cryin' shame
And the bitter isn't the sweet
Oh, oh, I'm so sorry, baby.

Love walked out the door
It's a cryin' shame
We don't have it no more, no more.
Love walked out the door
It's a cryin' shame
We don't have no more, no more.

"It's Been One Heck Of A Day"

"It's Been One Heck Of A Day"


It all started early this morning
As her mem'ry cruely eased my mind
I found a picture in my wallet
I thought I threw away
Oh, it's been one heck of a day.

Then while looking through the evening papers
I ran across some torturing news
Mr. and Mrs, O'Grady now have a new baby
Oh, it's been one heck of a day.

Is it there for me to love her
And cry at the thought of her
When my only hope is a dream

An old friend dropped by late this evening
Wouldn't you know he asked about her
But I guess he didn't know that I lost her long ago
Oh, it's been one heck of the day.

Oh, it's been one heck of a day...

"It's Not Love But It's Not Bad"

"It's Not Love But It's Not Bad"


She was always there each time I needed you
Holdin' on to me like I held on to you
We still don't have what you and I once had
No it's not love but it's not bad

No it's not love not like ours was
It's not love but it keeps love from drivin' me mad
And I don't have to wonder who she's had
No it's not love but it's not bad

I turn to her when you leave me alone
Sometimes even when you're here but you're still gone
She's slowly changing what you leave so sad
No it's not love but it's not bad

No it's not love not like ours was...
