"When The World Was Young"

"When The World Was Young"


Ah, the apple trees blossoms in the breeze
That we walked among
Lying in the hay, games we used to play
Wild around the sun only yesterday
When the world was young

While sitting around we often recall
The life of the year, the night of them all
For all of the noise, the talk and the smoke
I'm good for a laugh, a drink or a joke

I walk in a room, a party or ball
There's laughter and lights and wine for us all
And beautiful girls all put to [?]
But often my eyes see a different shine

Ah, the apple trees, silent memories
Wherever [?]
On our backs we'd lie looking at sky
Till the stars were strung only last July
When the world was young

When the world was young

"When Will I See You Again"

"When Will I See You Again"



Hoo-oo ha-a ha-a hoo-oo
Precious moments
When will I see you again
When will we share precious moments
Will I have to wait forever
Will I have to suffer
And cry the whole night trough?
When will I see you again
When will our hearts beat together?
Are we in love or just friends?
Is this my beginning
Or is this the end?
When will I see you again?
Hoo-oo- a hoo-oo
Precious moments
Are we in love or just friends?
Is this my beginning
Or is this the end?
When will I see you again

"When You Wish Upon A Star"

"When You Wish Upon A Star"



When you wish upon a star
Makes no difference
Who you are
Anything your heart desires
Will come to you

If your hearts
Is in your dream
No request is too extreme
When you wish upon a star
Like dreamers do

Fate is kind
She brings
To those who love
The sweet fulfillment of
Their secret losing

Like a bolt
Out of the blue
Fate steps in
And pulls you through
When you wish upon a star
Your dream comes true

"Where Are You?"

"Where Are You?"


Where are you, where have you gone without me
I thought you cared about me, where are you
Where's my heart, where is the dream we started
I can't believe we're parted, where are you

When we said, goodbye, love, what had we to gain
When I gave you my love, was it all in vain
All life through, must I go on pretending
Where is my happy ending, where are you

When we said, goodbye, love, what had we to gain
When I gave you my love, was it all in vain
All life through, must I go on pretending
Where is that happy ending, where are you, where are you

"Where Can I Go?"

"Where Can I Go?"



I was a daddy's girl sometime
But I loved my mama til the end of the line
I am cold and I am bright
It's a curse of mine to be sad at night
It's a curse of mine to be sad at night

Late at night he'll come to me and he'll tell me I'm alone
Don't you think I don't already know?
All I see is road
No one takes me home
Where, where can I go?

Truth about desire they say
Is a need to breathe for another day
Truth I heard about regret
It's the hardest truth I've come to yet
It's the hardest truth I've come to yet

Late at night he'll come to me and he'll tell me I'm alone
Don't you think I don't already know?
All I hear are wars
There's something I don't know
Where, where can I?

All I see is road
No one takes me home
Where, where can I?

If I feel like I want to be alone
If I feel like I'm better fought than won

Pick up your rope and jump for Rosie
She's just a sweet thing with her curls
Just about a woman with her clothes on
You take 'em off and she's a girl

All I hear are words
There's something I don't know
Where, where can I?

"Where Do You Think You're Going"

"Where Do You Think You're Going"



Where do you think you're going
Don't you know it's dark outside
Where do you think you're going
Don't you care about my pride
Where do you think you're going
I think you don't know
You got no way of knowing
You got no place to go

I understand your changes
How long before you reach the door
I know where you think you're going
I know what you came here for
And now I'm sick of joking
You know I like you to be free
Where do you think you're going
I think you'd better go with me, girl

You say there is no reason
But you still find cause to doubt me
When you ain't with me girl
You're gonna be without me

Where do you think you're going
Don't you know it's dark outside
Where do you think you're going
Don't you care about my pride
And now I'm sick of joking
You know I like you to be free
Where do you think you're going
I think you'd better go with me, girl

"Where Is The Love"

"Where Is The Love"



Where is the love (Where is the love)
Where is the love (Where is the love)
Where is the love (Where is the love)
Where is the love (Where is the love)

Where is the love
You said you’d give to me
Soon as you were free
Will it ever be
Where is the love

You told me that you didn’t love him
And you were gonna say goodbye
But if you really didn’t mean it
Why did you have to lie

Where is the love
You said was mine all mine
Till the end of time
Was it just a lie
Where is the love

If you have had a sudden change of heart
I wish that you would tell me so
Don’t leave me hangin’ on to promises
You’ve got to let me know

Doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo

Oh, how I wish I never met you
I guess it must have been my fate
To fall in love with someone else’s love
All I can do is wait
That’s all I can do, yeah, yeah, yeah

Where is the love (Where is the love)
Where is the love (Where is the love)
Where is the love (Where is the love)
Where is the love (Where is the love)

Where is the love (Where is the love)
Where is the love (Where is the love)
Where is the love (Where is the love)
Where is the love (Where is the love)

Where is the love (Where is the love)

"Where Or When"

"Where Or When"



It seems we stood and talked like this before
We looked at each other in the same way then
But I can't remember where or when

The clothes you're wearing are the clothes you wore
The smile you are smiling you were smiling then
But I can't remember where or when

Some things that happened for the first time
Seem to be happening again

And so it seems that we have met before
And laughed before, and loved before
But who knows where or when

"Wherever You Are It's Spring"

"Wherever You Are It's Spring"



I'm as restless as a willow in a windstorm
I'm as jumpy as puppet on a string
I'd say that I had spring fever
But I know it isn't spring

I am starry eyed and vaguely discontented
Like a nightingale without a song to sing
Oh, why should I have spring fever
When it isn't even spring?

I keep wishing I were someone else
Walking down a strange new street
And hearing words that I have never heard
From a girl, I've yet to meet

I'm as busy as spider spinning daydreams
I'm as giddy as a baby on a swing
I haven't seen a crocus or a rosebud
Or a robin that's on the wing

But I feel so gay in a melancholy way
That it might as well be spring
It might as well be spring

I keep wishing I were someone else
Walking down a strange new street
And hearing words that I have never heard
From a girl, I've yet to meet

Oh, I'm as busy as spider spinning daydreams
I'm as giddy as a baby on a swing
I haven't seen a crocus or a rosebud
Or a robin that's on the wing

But I feel so gay in a melancholy way
That it might as well be spring
It might as well be spring

"While We're Young (Alec Wilder Song)"

"While We're Young (Alec Wilder Song)"



In my heart and my soul I can feel this is right
And I know my bones will grow old and my body get lost in the night

'Cause money can't buy back the youth of your life
when you're older, you're older, you're old

So let's dance in style
let's go dance for a while
While we're young, young, young

Something in my heart tonight
Feel it in my soul
I'll let you see my wilder side
If I can see your bones

In this moment of mine I can feel this is right
Four in the morning, just searching
Now you must know what that's like

'Cause money can't buy back the love of your life
When you're older, you're older, you're old

So carry the weight of our biggest mistakes
On our shoulders, our shoulders, our shoulders

Something in my heart tonight
Feel it in my soul
I'll let you see my wilder side
If I can see your bones

Something in my heart tonight
Feel it in my soul
I'll let you see my wilder side
If I can see your bones

We're getting older
But you're still in my soul, soul

We're getting older
But you're still in my soul, soul

Something in my heart
Feel it in my, my, my soul

Something in my heart tonight
Feel it in my soul
I'll let you see my wilder side
If I can see your bones

Something in my heart tonight
Feel it in my soul
'Cause money can't bring back the stuff in your life
When you're young, young, young
