"(They Long to Be) Close to You"
(originally by Richard Chamberlain)



Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me
They long to be close to you

Why do stars fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me
They long to be close to you

On the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moondust in your hair
And golden starlight in your eyes of blue

That is why all the girls in town
Follow you all around
Just like me
They long to be close you you

On the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moondust in your hair
And golden starlight in your eyes of blue

That is why all the girls in town
Follow you all around
Just like me
They long to be close you
Oh, just like me
They long to be close to you
Baby, baby, baby
They long to be so close to you

"A Love Like Yours"

"A Love Like Yours"



I broke your heart
And I made you blue
Instead of hurting back
You said "I love you"
That very day you won my heart
And my love for you shall never part

You have such an understanding way
And I appreciate you need what I say
'Cause a love like yours don't come knock, knock, knock, knocking
Knock, knocking everyday

Although I treated you bad from the start
Without question you gave me your heart
No, a love like yours don't come knock, knock, knock, knocking
Knock, knocking everyday

It's the little things you do
Oh, that mean so much
So very, very much
(Consideration), I never knew
That is, until I met you
Believe me

You made my life complete
And I know our love with all of my mind
You can believe gonna hold on tight
'Cause a love like yours don't come knock, knock, knock, knocking
Knock, knocking everyday

No, a love like yours don't come knock, knock, knock, knocking
Knock, knocking everyday

It's the little things you do
That mean so much
So very very much
(Consideration), No I never knew
That is, until I met you
Believe me

You made my life complete
And I know our love with all of my mind
You can believe gonna hold on tight
'Cause a love like yours don't come knock, knock, knock, knocking
Knock, knocking everyday
I said a love like yours, it don't come knocking
Knock, knocking everyday
I said a love like yours, it don't come, it don't come knocking
Knock, knocking everyday
'Cause a love like yours, it don't come knocking

"Ain't No Sun Since You've Been Gone"

"Ain't No Sun Since You've Been Gone"



Into my life
You brought a glowing love
Like a ray of sunshine
From up above
One day out of a clear blue sky
You darkened my life with your words "goodbye"
That's the day you left me for a stranger
Don't you know that when you left my life
Took on a change-a?

Now I'm telling you it
Ain't no sun since you've been gone

There's a big black cloud hanging over my head
Cloud of loneliness I feel like I'm dead
Ain't no flowers blooming round here for sure
Since you chose to love me no more
I guess you know you took my sunshine away from me baby, boy
You took the life from my world
Crushed my dreams
And I don't mean maybe, baby, baby
And it ain't no sun since you've been gone

Oh, my future, my future
Was as bright as the sun, yes it was
I ain't got no future since you've been gone

I guess you know you took my sunshine away from me baby, yes you did
You took the life from my world
Crushed my dreams
And I don't mean maybe, baby, baby
It seems like night in the middle of the day
Everything around me is faded and grey
Cold are the days
Dark creeps the night
Never bringing you back into my life
It ain't no sun since you've been gone

You took my sunshine away, yeah ooh, ooh, ooh
You took my sunshine away, yes you did, ooh, ooh, ooh
You took my sunshine away, yeah, ooh, ooh, ooh
You took my sunshine away, oh

"All Cried Out"

"All Cried Out"



I stayed up cryin' all night (all night)
I knew the end was in sight (in sight)
And now you're walkin' out on me (on me)
You're wonderin' where the little tears can be (can be)
Well, baby....

I'm all cried out, I'm all cried out
All my little tears are all dried out, oh yeah
Now, that you say we're through
I'm all cried out over you

Last night I knew we were through (we're through)
It hurt 'cause I still loved you (loved you)
Went home and couldn't fall asleep (asleep)
'Cause sleep just won't come into eyes that weep (that weep)
And that's why....

I'm all cried out, I'm all cried out
All my little tears are all dried out, oh yeah

Listen to me when I'm a-tellin' you

"All I Have To Offer You Is Love"

"All I Have To Offer You Is Love"



If all you want's a good time, baby
There's a party down the street
If you're trying to fight an old flame
Well, I can't take the heat
If you're looking for a game to play
Well, I wish you luck
'Cause all I have to offer you is love

If you only want a keeper darling
I don't hold the key
If you're searching for a saviour better
Get down on your knees
If you're looking for the answers, well
Hell I don't know that much
'Cause all I have to offer you is love

Oh darling, there's a whole lot of things
I've found that I just can't be, no I can't
But if you're looking for a real love, baby
I've got all that you'll ever need
It might be more than you're after
Or not nearly enough
But all I have to offer you is love

Oh darling, there's a whole lot of things
I've found I just can't be
But if you're looking for a real love, baby
I've got all that you'll ever need
It might be more than you're after
Or not nearly enough, ahh
But all I have to offer you is love

Sweet love, baby
'Cause all I got to offer you is love
Sweet love
Oh baby, sugar

"All The King's Horses"

"All The King's Horses"



Mmm, my friends keep telling me to pull myself together
They try to cheer my up but it's not gettin' better
They say that time will pass and I'll love again some day
But time is standing still ever since you went away

Now, all the king's horses and all the king's men
You'll never get me back together again
'Cause I just fall apart each time I look at you
No, all the king's and all the king's men
Are never gonna make me smile again
How can I smile just knowin' you're with somebody new?, ooh

You had my hopes so high I guess they had to tumble
And when you left my dream my world began to crumble
No woman ever found the only missing part
When you left me behind don't you know you took my heart?

Now, all the king's horses and all the king's men
You'll never get me back together again
'Cause I just fall apart each time I look at you, yes I do, now
All the king's and all the king's men
You're never gonna make me smile again
How can I smile just knowin' you're with somebody new?, ooh, yeah, ooh, ahh, ha

All the king's horses and all the king's men
You'll never get me back together again
'Cause I just fall apart each time I look at you, yes I do
I said, all the king's and all the king's men
Are never gonna make me smile again
How can I smile just knowing you're with somebody new?, yeah

All the king's horses and all the king's men
You'll never get me back together again
And I just fall apart each time

"Another Night"

"Another Night"



Find me a rose that never fades and dies
And I'll show you a man who never, ever cheats and lies
Find me a star and if you can prove
The star you've found just never disappears
I'll show you a man who'll never, never, ever, ever bring you tears

Another night when I'm all alone
Another night without him
Another night when I stay at home
And worry so about him
Oh, I love him
And my love makes me cry
I need him
If he doesn't come back
I know I'll surely die

Find me a cloud that never brings you rain
And I'll show you a man who never, ever brings you pain
Find me a bird and if you can prove the bird you've found
Has wings and still can't fly
I'll show you a man
Who'll never, never, ever, ever leave you high and dry

Another night when I'm all alone
Another night without him
Another night when I stay at home
And worry so about him
Oh, I love him
And my love makes me cry
I need him
If he doesn't come back
I'll die
And he'll never, never, never, never leave you high and dry

Another night when I'm all alone
Another night without him
Another night when I stay at home
And worry so about him
Another night
Another night, yeah
I'm so alone baby
Another night
I can't stand it, ah
I can't stand it

"Anyone Who Had A Heart"
(originally by Dionne Warwick)

"Anyone Who Had A Heart"
(originally by Dionne Warwick)



Anyone who ever loved
Could look at me
And know that I love you
Anyone who ever dreamed
Could look at me
And know I dream of you

Knowing I love you so
Anyone who had a heart
Would take me in his arms and love me, too
You couldn't really have a heart
And hurt me like you hurt me
And be so untrue
What am I to do?

Every time you go away
I always say
"This time it's goodbye, dear"
Loving you the way I do
I take you back
Without you I'd die, dear

Knowing I love you so
Anyone who had a heart
Would take me in his arms and love me, too
You couldn't really have a heart
And hurt me like you hurt me
And be so untrue
What am I to do?

Knowing I love you so
Anyone who had a heart
Would take me in his arms and love me, too
You couldn't really have a heart
And hurt me like you hurt me
And be so untrue
Anyone who had a heart would love me, too
Anyone who had a heart
Would surely take me in his arms and always love me
Why won't you, yeah
Anyone who had a heart would love me, too, yeah
Anyone who had a heart
Would surely take me in his arms and always love me
Why won't you, yeah

"Arrested By You"

"Arrested By You"



What is this strange elation?
Taking my train of thought to an unknown destination
And suddenly I don't know where I am
But like a tremor or a spark
Something's happening in my heart

I've been arrested by you
Take me in, oh, oh, oh
Finally captured by you, by you and by you
Take me in
I've been arrested by you
Take me in, oh, oh, oh
Finally captured by you, by you and by you
Take me in

You've broken my concentration
Saving me just in time from a desperate situation
And suddenly, I don't know who I am
But my dilemma's where to start
Something's happening in my heart

I've been arrested by you
Take me in, oh, oh, oh
Finally captured by you, by you and by you
Take me in
I've been arrested by you
Take me in, oh, oh, oh
Finally captured by you, by you and by you
Take me in

I've been arrested by you
Take me in, oh, oh, oh
Finally captured by you, by you and by you
Take me in
I've been arrested by you
Take me in, oh
Finally captured by you, oh, oh
Take me in
I've been captured, captured, captured, captured
Oh, baby
Oh, ho,
Take me baby
Oh, oh, oh, oh

"Baby Don't You Know"

"Baby Don't You Know"



(Baby don't you know?)
Tonight you'll take away my sorrow
(Baby don't you know?)
That it will all come back tomorrow
When we have to part
(Why, why) do I go on loving you?
(Baby don't you know?)
How much I want my arms about you?
(Baby don't you know?)
This emptiness I feel without you
Close to my heart
(Close to my heart)

Don't ever, ever say goodbye
(Say goodbye)
Unless you wanna see, wanna see me cry
(Baby don't you know?)
That we were meant to be together
(Baby don't you know?)
The thought of leaving you forever
Tears me apart
(Tears me apart)

I'll never say goodbye to you
(Say goodbye to you)
Unless you really want, really want me to
(Baby don't you know?)
I wanna spend my life loving you

(Close to my heart)
Don't ever, ever say goodbye
(Don't say goodbye)
Unless you wanna see, wanna see me cry

That we were meant to be together
(Baby don't you know?)
The thought of leaving you forever
Tears me apart
(Tears me apart)

I'll never say goodbye to you
(Say goodbye to you)
Unless you really want, really want me to
(Baby don't you know?)
I wanna spend my life loving you

I wanna spend my life, ooh,ooh
