"And I Love Her"

"And I Love Her"



I give her all my love
That's all I do
And if you saw my love
You'd love her too
I love her

She gives me everything
And tenderly
The kiss my lover brings
She brings to me
And I love her

A love like ours
Could never die
As long as I
Have you near me

Bright are the stars that shine
Dark is the sky
I know this love of mine
Will never die
And I love her

"And I Love You So"

"And I Love You So"


And I love you so
The people ask me how
How I've lived till now
I tell them I don't know

I guess they understand
How lonely life has been
But life began again
The day you took my hand

[CHORUS:]
And yes I know how lonely (loveless) life can be
The shadows follow me
And the night won't set me free
But I don't let the evening get me down
Now that you're around me

And you love me too
Your thoughts are just for me
You set my spirit free
I'm happy that you do
The book of life is brief
And once a page is read
All but love is dead
That is my belief

[CHORUS]

"Angola (At The Farm)"

"Angola (At The Farm)"



At the farm Angola they got me on watch hall
Ain't got it on more you can cut along
Ain't got it off tractor you can call that tiller
But you can call that park up the view and the birds along

At the farm Angola they got on red hand
Then the boys got mad at 74
They told him that it might be good for Charlie Fraser
They cut the wings of the heels of the sand that their work was done

Angola at the farm
Angola at the farm

At the farm Angola you work on sunshine
At the farm Angola you work on frame
Perhaps and it got to be a fortune
And if you don't like it
You can take it up with Wally King

The farm Angola's on the Mississippi
The shortest journey the life would enjoy at the sun
We spend all day all night thinking of the city
But the chase is ready so man don't you try to run

Angola at the farm
Angola at the farm
Angola at the farm
Angola at the farm

"Answer Me My Love"

"Answer Me My Love"



Answer me
Oh my love
Just what sin have I been guilty of
Tell me how I came to lose your love
Please answer me sweetheart

You were mine yesterday
I believed that love was here to stay
Won't you tell me how I've gone astray
Please answer me my love

If you're happier without me
I'll try not to care
But if you still think about me
Please listen to my prayer

You must know that I've been true
Won't you say that we can start anew
In my sorrow now I turn to you
Please answer me my love

If you're happier without me
I'll try not to care
But if you still think about me
Please listen to my prayer

You must know that I've been true
Won't you say that we can start anew
In my sorrow now I turn to you
Please answer me my love
Answer me my love

"Auld Lang Syne"

"Auld Lang Syne"



Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And auld lang syne?

For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne.
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.

And surely ye'll be your pint-stowp!
And surely I'll be mine!
And we'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.

We twa hae run about the braes
And pou'd the gowans fine.
We've wandered mony a weary foot,
Sin' auld lang syne.

We twa hae sported i' the burn,
From morning sun till dine,
But seas between us braid hae roared
Sin' auld lang syne.

And ther's a hand, my trusty friend,
And gie's a hand o' thine;
We'll tak' a right good willie-waught,,
For auld lang syne.

"Ave Maria"

"Ave Maria"



Ave Maria gratia plena
Maria gratia plena
Maria gratia plena
Ave, Ave! Dominus, dominus tecum

Benedicta tu in mulierbus
Et benedicta
Et benedicta fructus ventris
Ventris tui Jesus

Ave Maria!

"Basin Street Blues"

"Basin Street Blues"



Basin Street is the street
Where all the white and the black folk meet
Down in New Orleans, the land of dreams
You never know how much it seems
Not just how much it really means
I'm glad to be, yessirree, in the land of reverie
I can't lose my Basin Street Blues

"Being Alone"

"Being Alone"



Snappy sway and I’m jealous
And happy to be
Mr. Sunshine’s right jealous
It’s raining on me
Thank you, I’m doin fine on my own
I’m happy being alone

Every inch in a gladys
And taking all spring
I ain’t gaining no status
It don’t mean a thing
If it’s important
I’ll have to postpone
I’m happy being alone

The air is cold and the fire’s hot
And my favorite sweater’s wool
There’s coffee brewing in my coffee pot
And my message box is full

Roses roaming round fences
With nowhere to go
Only thing making sense is
Just watching them grow
Don’t try to call me
I’ve turned off my phone
I’m happy being alone

The air is cold and the fire’s hot
And my favorite sweater’s wool
There’s coffee brewing in my coffee pot
And my message box is full

Roses roaming round fences
With nowhere to go
Only thing making sense is
Just watching them grow
Don’t try to call me
I’ve turned off my phone
I’m happy being alone

I’m happy… just being… alone

"Bésame Mucho"

"Bésame Mucho"



Bésame, bésame mucho
Como si fuera esta noche
La última vez

Bésame, bésame mucho
Que tengo miedo a perderte
Perderte después

Bésame, bésame mucho
Como si fuera esta noche
La última vez

Bésame, bésame mucho
Que tengo miedo a perderte
Perderte después

Quiero tenerte muy cerca
Mirarme en tus ojos
Verte junto a mi
Piensa que tal ves mañana
Yo ya estaré lejos
Muy lejos de ti

Bésame, bésame mucho
Como si fuera esta noche
La última vez

Bésame, bésame mucho
Que tengo miedo a perderte
Perderte después

Besame besame mucho,
Each time I cling to your kiss
I hear music divine
Besame, besame mucho
Hold me my darling
Say that you'll always be mine

Oh this joy is something new
My arms enfolding you
I never knew this thrill before
Who ever thought I'd be
Holding you close to me
Whispering it's you I adore

So dearest one, if you should leave me
Then each little dream would take wing
And my life would be through.
Besame, besame mucho
Love me forever
Make all my dreams come true

"Between Us"

"Between Us"



Took a midnight train
Headed way back east
Left behind some pain
In hopes of finding some peace
Fortunately caught one
Bound for my old neighborhood
Either way, between us, it's good

They're building a bridge
Links Manhattan with the heartland
It's called the California ridge
The country needs to expand
Saw them lay the first stone
It was made of wood
Either way, between us, it's good

In an age of greys
When wrong won't become right
Let's life the haze
And scale the heights

set my shoulders straight
Took a deep breath
This meeting I anticipate
Unlike impending death
Strode on to the platform
And there you stood
At worst, between us, it's good
