"Time After Time"

"Time After Time"




Time after time
I tell myself that I'm
So lucky to be loving you

So lucky to be
The one you run to see
In the evening, when the day is through

I only know what I know
The passing years will show
You've kept my love so young, so new

And time after time
I tell myself that I'm
So lucky to be loving you

I only know what I know
The passing years will show
You've kept my love so young, so new

And time after time
You'll hear me say that I'm
So lucky to be loving you

And time after time
I tell myself that I'm
So lucky to be loving you

"Today's Teardrops"

"Today's Teardrops"



Today's teardrops are tomorrow's rainbows and
Tomorrow's rainbows I will share, share with you
So dry your eyes little girl dry your eyes
And we're gonna see skies of blue

Had a tough time gettin' started
Maybe just a little down hearted
All you got to do is count to ten
Maybe you'd be smiling when

Today's teardrops are tomorrow's rainbows and
Tomorrow's rainbows I will share, share with you
So dry your eyes little girl dry your eyes
And we're gonna see skies of blue

Gonna be just love and gladness
Don't wanna hear nothing bout sadness
Come a little closer come to me
With each kiss you're gonna see

"Travelin' Man"

"Travelin' Man"


I'm a travelin' man
Made a lot of stops all over the world
And in every port I own the heart
Of at least one lovely girl

I've a pretty Seniorita waiting for me
Down in old Mexico
If you're ever in Alaska stop and see
My cute little Eskimo

Oh, my sweet Fraulien down in Berlin town
Makes my heart start to yearn
And my China doll down in old Hong Kong
Waits for my return

Pretty Polynesian baby, over the sea
I remember the night
When we walked in the sand of Waikiki
And I held you, oh, so tight

[Instrumental Interlude]

Oh, my sweet Fraulien down in Berlin town
Makes my heart start to yearn
And my China doll down in old Hong Kong
Waits for my return

Pretty Polynesian baby, over the sea
I remember the night
When we walked in the sand of Waikiki
And I held you, oh, so tight

Oh, I'm a travelin' man
Yes, I'm a travelin' man
Yes, I'm a travelin' man
Whoa, I'm a travelin' man

"Truck Drivin' Man"

"Truck Drivin' Man"



I stopped at a roadhouse in Texas
In a little place called Hamburger Den
I heard that old jukebox start playin'
A tune called the truck drivin' man

The waitress then brought me some coffee
I thanked her then called her again
I said that old song sure does fit me
'Cause I'm a truck drivin' man

Well pour me another cup of coffee
For it is the best in the land
I'll put a nickel in the jukebox
And play the truck drivin' man

I climbed back aboard my old Semi
And then like a flash I was gone
I got them old truck wheels a movin'
Now I'm on my way to San Antone

When I get my call up to glory
They'll take me away from this land
I'll head this old truck up to heaven
'Cause I'm a Truck Drivin Man

Well Pour me another cup of coffee
For it is the best in the land
I'll put a nickel in the jukebox
And play the truck drivin' man

"True Love"

"True Love"



I give to you and you give to me
True love, true love
And on and on it will always be
True love, true love

For you and I have a guardian angel
On high, with nothing to do
But to give to you and to give to me
Love forever true

For you and I have a guardian angel
On high, with nothing to do
But to give to you and to give to me
Love forever true
Love forever true

"True Love Ways"

"True Love Ways"



Just you know why
Why you and I
Will by and by
Know true love ways

Sometimes we'll sigh
Sometimes we'll cry
And we'll know why
Just you and I
Know true love ways

Throughout the days
Our true love ways
Will bring us joys to share
With those who really care

Sometimes we'll sigh
Sometimes we'll cry
And we'll know why
Just you and I
Know true love ways

True love ways

"Try To Remember"

"Try To Remember"



Try to remember the kind of September
When life was slow and oh so mellow
Try to remember the kind of September
When grass was green and grain was yellow

Try to remember when life was so tender
That love was an ember about to billow
Try to remember and if you remember
Then follow...

Try to remember when life was so tender
That no one wept except the willow
Try to remember when life was so tender
That dreams were kept beside your pillow

Deep in December it's nice to remember
The fire of September that made us mellow
Deep in December it's nice to remember
And follow...

"Try To See It My Way"
(feat. Joanie Sommers)

"Try To See It My Way"
(feat. Joanie Sommers)



There you are lonely as can be
Still you keep resisting me
Won't you please try to see it my way
Just for once try to see it my way
I want the best for you

Tell me how I can make you see that I understand
Let me lend a helping hand
Won't you please try to see it my way
Just for once try to see it my way
And I will see you through

Don't you know the most important thing
that someone can be taught
Is that living is learning to share
It soon may be too late for us
So don't turn away from those who show they care

Come on and take my hand, let me lead the way
I won't let you go astray
Won't you please try to see it my way
I'm so sure if you see it my way
It's gonna be so fine
So wonderful and fine
Now while there still is time
Try to see it my way

[Alt:]
There you go, heading for a fall
- Must you be a know-it-all
Don't you know you can't go wrong if you do it my way
- Angie, please let me do it my way, I know what's right for me

Can't you see that you'll soon be back on your lonely shelf
- Won't you let me be myself
Everything will turn out right if you do it my way
- Angie, please let me do it my way,
That's how it has to be

Don't you know it doesn't make you one iota less a man
To accept what a woman can give
- I know you've done a lot for me,
But playin' it safe, that's not the way to live

Come on and take my hand, let me see you through
- I know now what I must do
I'm afraid that you'll get hurt if you do it your way
-I'm so sure if I do it my way it's gonna be so fine
So wonderful and fine
Now while there still is time
Try to see it my way

"Tryin' To Get To You"

"Tryin' To Get To You"



I've been travelin' over mountains
Even through the valley's too
I've been travelin' night and day
Runnin' all the way
Baby tryin' to get to you

Ever since I read your letters
Where you said you loved me true
I've been travelin' night and day
Runnin' all the way
Baby tryin' to get to you

When I read your lovin' letters
Then my heart began to sing
There were many miles between us
But they didn't mean a thing

I just had to reach you baby
'Spite of all that I've been through
I kept travelin' night and day
Runnin' all the way
Baby tryin' to get to you

When I read your lovin' letters
Then my heart began to sing
There were many miles between us
But they didn't mean a thing

I just had to reach you baby
'Spite of all that I've been through
I kept travelin' night and day
Runnin' all the way
Baby tryin' to get to you

I kept travelin' night and day
Runnin' all the way
Baby tryin' to get to you

"Unchained Melody"

"Unchained Melody"



Oh, my love, my darling,
I've hungred for your touch, a long, lonely time
Time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much, are you still mine?
I need your love, I need your love
God speed your love to me

My darling,
I've hungred for your touch, a long, lonely time
Time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much, are you still mine?
I need your love, I need your love
God speed your love to me
