"Lonely Lady #17"

"Lonely Lady #17"

Lonely lady one, she run away
And number two, she do the same
Lady number three walk out on me
Like number four
Who's keeping score?

Lady five, oh how she lied
She made me pay some dues
Six and seven, eight, nine, ten
They really were bad news
Oh no, they'd only break my heart
That's how it seems
And then I finally came upon
A lady seventeen

Lonely lady number seventeen
She stayed a while
She had the style
Lonely lady number seventeen
She got to be with lonely me
Lonely
Lonely lady number seventeen
Yeah
Lonely lady!

Ladies eleven, twelve and thirteen
They came and went
Baby, I still can hear them sayin'
"It's time to repent"
I turned around and there she was
With such a sweet surprise
A lovin' face, lovin' smile
And love lights in her eyes

Lonely lady number seventeen
You stayed a while
You had the style
Lonely lady number seventeen
Come on and be with lonely me

Oh no
When lady fourteen walked out
That's when I screamed
I had no luck with lady fifteen
Or sweet sixteen

But lonely lady number seventeen
You stayed a while
You had the style
Lonely lady number seventeen
Come and and be with lonely me

Lonely
Lonely lady number seventeen
Yeah
Lonely lady
She makes me feel so sociable
Lonely lady
Number seventeen
Yes
Lonely lady, lonely
Lonely lady
Number seventeen

"Lonely Looking Sky"

"Lonely Looking Sky"

Lonely looking sky, lonely sky
Lonely looking sky
And bein' lonely
Makes you wonder why
Makes you wonder why
Lonely looking sky
Lonely looking sky
Lonely looking sky

Lonely looking night, lonely night,
Lonely looking night
And bein' lonely
Never made it right
Never made it right
Lonely looking night
Lonely looking night
Lonely looking night

Sleep, we sleep
For we may dream
While we may
Dream we dream
For we may wake
One more day, one more day

Glory looking day
Glory day, Glory looking day
And all it's glory
Told a simple way
Behold it if you may
Glory looking day
Glory looking day
On lonely looking sky

"Long Gone"

"Long Gone"

Say lady
Oh, you got to tell me
What it was came over you
You ain't the devil,
But you might as well be
For all the changes
That you put me through

Long gone, baby is what I'm gonna be
Long gone, pack up and save my soul
Hang on to whatever's left of me
Find me walkin' the long gone road

Want someone to believe in
Need someone that wants me, too
Don't want no lies and deceivin'
Girl, that's all I get from you

Long gone, baby is what I'm gonna be
Long gone, pack up and save my soul
Hang on to whatever's left of me
Find me walkin' the long gone road

Long gone, baby is what I'm gonna be
Long gone, pack up and save my soul
Hang on to whatever's left of me
Find me walkin' the long gone road

Long gone, baby is what I'm gonna be
Long gone, pack up and save my soul
Hang on to whatever's left of me
Find me walkin' the long gone road

"Long Hard Climb"

"Long Hard Climb"

I wake every morning to find you there
My lover still
I am deep in amazement
That you still care, you always will
My life depends on you
To always be there, always be mine
Know you can make that long hard climb.

How many others have come and gone
Along the way?
Count them,
All of them seem to be movin' on
But me, I've stayed the same
And I still want you.
I give you my heart, give you my soul
I give it all because, I know
It's a long hard climb

It's a long hard climb, and I know it
And I hope that it's not too late
And I know that
I'm lost if I should hesitate
Yes, I do believe in forever
It's a place that lover's find
And I know that we're both gonna make
That long hard climb

Late in the evening, there's the two of us
Alone and still
Dreamers caring to strongly to give it up
We never will,
'Cause our life depends on two
You give me your heart,
I give you my soul
We'll give it all because we know it's
A long hard climb

And I wanted to say that I love you.
And I hope that it's not too late
But I know that we're lost
If we should hesitate
And I do believe in forever
It's a place that lover's find
And I know that we're both gonna make
That long hard climb

Yes I know that we can make it
'Cause there's no way that you could fake it
Yes together we're both gonna make
That long hard climb

"Long Nights, Hold On"

"Long Nights, Hold On"

New York City is the loneliest town
Unless you happen to be lost in L.A.
But nothing matters much
When you're not around
Long nights, hold on
Long nights, hold on

I've been a traveler
And I've lived in a cave
It doesn't matter
When there's someone who cares
But you're alone now
And you've got to be brave
Long nights, hold on
Long nights, hold on

Why am I awake at night?
What good does it do
Close my eyes and all I see is you

But New York City is a happening town
And L.A. still can wear a smile on her face
Wait till morning and you turn it around
Long nights, hold on
Long nights, hold on

Why am I awake at night?
What good does it do
Close my eyes and all I see is you

But New York City can be happy at times
You only need to have somebody you love
Give me love and I'm doin' just fine
Long nights, hold on
Long nights. hold on
Long nights, hold on
Long nights, hold on

"Longfellow Serenade"

"Longfellow Serenade"

Longfellow Serenade
Such were the plans I'd made
For she was a lady
And I was a dreamer
With only words to trade

You know that I was born
For a night like this
Warmed by a stolen kiss
For I was lonely
And she was lonely

Ride, come on baby, ride
Let me make your dreams come true
I'll sing my song
Let me sing my song
Let me make it warm for you

I'll weave his web of rhyme
Upon the summer night
We'll leave this worldly time
On his winged flight
Then come, and as we lay
Beside this sleepy glade
There I will sing to you
My Longfellow serenade

Longfellow serenade
Such were the plans I made
But she was a lady
As deep as the river
And through the night we stayed
And in my way I loved her as none before
Loved her with words and more
For she was lonely and I was lonely

Ride, come on baby, ride
Let me make your dreams come true
I'll sing my song
Let me sing my song
Let me make it warm for you

I'll weave his web of rhyme
Upon the summer night
We'll leave this worldly time
On his winged flight
Then come, and as we lay
Beside this sleepy glade
There I will sing to you
My Longfellow serenade

Weave your web of rhyme
Upon the summer night
We'll leave this worldly time
On your winged flight

"Look Out Here Comes Tomorrow"

"Look Out Here Comes Tomorrow"

Look out, here comes tomorrow
That's when I'll have to choose
How I wish I could borrow
Someone else's shoes

Mary, oh what a sweet girl
Lips like strawberry pie
Sandra, the long hair and pig tails
Can't make up my mind
I see all kinds of sorrow
Wish I loved only one
Look out here comes tomorrow
Oh how I wish
Tomorrow would never come

Told them both that I loved them
Said it, and it was true
But I can't have both of them
Don't know what to do

I see all kinds of sorrow
Wish I loved only one
Look out here comes tomorrow
Oh how I wish
Tomorrow would never come

[Instrumental]

I see all kinds of sorrow
Wish I loved only one
Look out here comes tomorrow
Oh how I wish
Tomorrow would never come

"Lordy"

"Lordy"

Hey,
Lady, she got painted eyes
Have a way of talking to you
Cut your heart out for the prize
While the bitch sings hallelujah

Lordy,
Well I'm made of blood and bone
Na na na na na na na na na na
Surely, you know
I bleed when I get stoned
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na

Look at the way I made my bed
Rocks and knots and I'm half crazy
Get to dream 'bout bein' dead
But I ain't been that lucky lately

Lordy,
Well I'm made of blood and bone
Na na na na na na na na na na
Surely you know
I bleed when I get stoned
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na....

Lordy,
Well I'm made of blood and bone
Na na na na na na na na na na
Surely you know
I bleed when I get stoned
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na....

"Losing You"
(originally by Randy Newman)

"Losing You"
(originally by Randy Newman)

Was a fool with my money
And I lost every dime
And the sun stopped shining
And it rained all the time
It did set me back some
But I made it through
But I'll never get over losing you

Do you know how much you mean to me?
Should've told you 'cause it's true
I'd get over losing anything
But I'll never get over losing you

When you're young
And there's time
To forget the past
You don't think that you will
But you do
But I know that I don't have time enough
And I'll never get over losing you

I've been cold
I've been hungry
But not for awhile
I guess most of my dreams have come true
With it all here around me
No peace do I find
'Cause I'll never get over losing you
No, I'll never get over losing you

"Lost Among The Stars"

"Lost Among The Stars"

Out in the night
We can burn like the brightest sun
Out in the night
There's a place
That I know of where we can be eternally
Forever one

Lost among the stars
I saw you there
And that was all that mattered
You and only you
Among the stars
And nothing else would matter

Lost among the stars
I saw your face
And I knew that was where
I always want to be

Among the stars
Just you and me
Among the stars

Love can be like that
Can take you up
Or burn you out so badly

Lost among the stars
That summer night
When love will take you
When you're least prepared to go
I can't forget I love you so

Out in the night
We can burn like the brightest sun
Out in the night
There's a place
That I know of where we can be eternally
Forever one

Lost among the stars
The summer night
Can take you where you going

Lost among the stars
The summer night
Can take you where you going

Lost among the stars
The summer night
Can take you where you going

Lost among the stars
The summer night
Can take you where you going
