"After Loving You"

"After Loving You"

Darling, after loving you
What else is there to do
'Cause darling, all the rest
Will just be second best.

I know I'll go tonight
Just comparing them to you
I'll be no good to anyone
After loving you.

Your love can't be replaced
With just another pretty face
And heartaches will remain
For they can't be erased.

Many loves may come along
But they won't live up to you
I'll be no good to anyone
After loving you...

"All Dressed Up And Lonely"

"All Dressed Up And Lonely"

I put your favorite suit on
And the tie that you loved so
I'm all dressed up and lonely
With no place to go.

I could go to a movie
But in almost every show
You see a happy ending
And that would hurt me so.

I'll just stay at home and make believe
That you are by my side
And when it's time to say goodnight
I know that I will cry.

So I'll just kiss your picture
And the tears will fall I know
I'm all dressed up and lonely
With no place to go.

I'm all dressed up and lonely
With no place to go.
(All dressed up and lonely)
With no place to go...

"Almost"

"Almost"

Almost, you fell in love with me
Almost, you were my bride to be
But each promise that was made
You have broken and betrayed
And left me with a faded memory.

Almost, my precious dreams came true
Almost, you whispered, dear I do
But someone new came by
And you left me here to cry
Oh, how close we were, almost.

Almost, your heart I did possess
Almost, you brought me happiness
But my dreams just won't come true
And there's nothing I can do.

Oh, how close we were, almost...

"Am I Losing You"

"Am I Losing You"

Am I losing you?
Are my fears coming true?
How I wish I knew,
Am I losing you?

Is your love really true?
Is there somebody new?
Tell me what to do.
Am I losing you?

Am I too blind to see
What's then happ'ning to me?
Ev'ry road has a bend.
Will I be sweetheart or friend?

Will the sweet things you do
Be for somebody new?
Tell me what to do.
Am I losing you?

Ev'ry road has a bend.
Will I be sweetheart or friend?

Will the sweet things you do
Be for somebody new?
Tell me what to do.
Am I losing you?

"Am I That Easy To Forget?"

"Am I That Easy To Forget?"

They say you've found somebody new
But that won't stop my lovin' you
I just can't let you walk away
Forget the love I had for you.

Guess I could find somebody, too
But I don't want no one but you
How could you leave without regret
Am I that easy to forget?

Before you leave be sure you find
You want his love much more than mine
'Cause I'll just say we've never met
If I'm that easy to forget.

Before you leave be sure you find
You want his love much more than mine
'Cause I'll just say we've never met
If I'm that easy to forget.

If I'm that easy to forget...

"An Old Christmas Card"

"An Old Christmas Card"

(It's a memory of an old Christmas card)

There's an old Christmas card in an old dusty trunk
And it brings back sweet mem'ries dear to me
'Tho it's faded and worn, it's as precious as the morn
When I found it 'neath our first Christmas tree.

[Chorus:]
I thrill with every word, every line
Guess I'm always sentimental 'round this time
Pardon me if a tear falls among my Christmas cheer
It's the mem'ry of an old Christmas card.

[Spoken:]
You know, I don't know why
I get to feeling sentimental
About this time, every year.
But every time I see a Christmas card,
I somehow can't help reminiscing.
About the very first Christmas
that you and I spent together.
What a beautiful Christmas card
you gave me that year.
Why, I know you must have looked
through thousands of cards to find
that wonderful poem
that still brings a tear to my eyes.

[Chorus:]
I thrill with every word, every line
Guess I'm always sentimental 'round this time
Pardon me if a tear falls among my Christmas cheer
It's the mem'ry of an old Christmas card...

"Anna Marie"

"Anna Marie"

Anna Marie.

Tonight while the snowflakes are falling
Here I my dreams I can see
The white cherry blossoms of shamon
Where I walked with Anna Marie

Anna Marie, Anna Marie, my heart remembers and sighs
Ce vous, ce vous, be ami beaucoup
I miss you Anna Marie

My heart was pledged to another
But I knew as I crossed the sea
That I'd never loved any other
As I loved my Anna Marie

Anna Marie, Anna Marie, my heart remembers and sighs
Ce vous, ce vous, be ami beaucoup

"Annabel Lee"

"Annabel Lee"

[Spoken]
It was many and many a year ago,
In a a kingdom by the sea,
That a maiden there lived whom you may know
By the name of Annabel Lee;
And this maiden she lived with no other thought
Than to love and be loved by me;

I was a child and she was a child,
In this kingdom by the sea,
But we loved with a love that was more than love,
I and my Annabel Lee
With a love that the winged seraphs of Heaven
Coveted her and me;

And this was the reason that, long ago,
In this kingdom by the sea,
A wind blew out of a cloud
Chilling my beautiful Annabel Lee;
So that her high-born kinsman came
And bore her away from me,
To shut her up in a sepulchre
In this kingdom by the sea.

The angels, not half so happy in Heaven,
Went envying her and me.
Yes!, that was the reason (as all men know,
In this kingdom by the sea)
That the wind came out of the cloud by night, chilling
And killing my Annabel Lee.

But our love it was stronger by far than the love
Of those who were older than we,
Of many far wiser than we,
And neither the angels in Heaven above,
Nor the demons down under the sea,
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee.

For the moon never beams without bringing me dreams
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And the stars never rise but I feel the bright eyes
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side
Of my darling, my darling, my life and my bride,
In her sepulchre there by the sea
In her tomb by the side of the sea...

"Auf Wiederseh'n Sweetheart"

"Auf Wiederseh'n Sweetheart"

Auf wiederseh'n, auf wiederseh'n
We'll meet again sweetheart
This lovely day has flown away
The time has come to part.

We'll kiss again like this, again
Don't let a teardrop start
With love that's true I'll wait for you
Auf wiederseh'n sweetheart.

(We'll kiss again like this again
Don't let a teardrop start)
With love that's true I'll wait for you
Auf wiederseh'n sweetheart...

"Be Honest With Me"

"Be Honest With Me"

(Do do do do do)
(Do do do do do)

Be honest with me dear, whatever you do
Remember you're mine dear, so always be true
Where ever you wander, on land or on sea
If you really love me, be honest with me.

My poor heart would break dear, if you were untrue
Asleep or awake dear, I dream about you
For you are my darling, you're all that I see
If you really love me, be honest with me.

Be honest with me dear, whatever you do
Remember you're mine dear, so always be true
Where ever you wander, on land or on sea
If you really love me, be honest with me.

Be honest with me.
Be honest with me...
