"Blue, Turning Grey Over You"

"Blue, Turning Grey Over You"



What will i do at sundown,
What will i do at dawn,
What will i do at noontime,
Now that i've found you gone?

What will i do for sunshine
With nothing but the rain?
How can i smile,
Find life worth while
With a heart that's filled with pain?

My, how i miss
Your tender kiss
And the wonderful things you would do.
I run my hands
Thru' sil'vry strands
'Cause i'm blue, turning grey over you.

Well, you used to be
So good to me,
That's when i was a novelty.
Now you have new thrills in view,
Found someone new,
Left me blue, turning grey over you.

I said, how can i smile,
Find life worth while
With a heart that's filled with pain?

You used to be
So good to me,
That's when i was a novelty.
Well, now you have found some new thrills to view,
And some new buddy friends and i don't know what to do.
Because i'm blue, turning grey over you.

Yeh, come on, hit me, daddy, hit me,
Let me hear it one time!
Oh yeah,

Ba-sa-sa-sa-sa-sa-sa-sa-so-so-so-so
Ba-sa-sa-sa-sa-dootsie-dootise-doo.

I just lost myself there, child, ha! Ha! Ha!

"Brandy"

"Brandy"



By the open fireplace in my favourite dungarees,
Played a few bars of a melody and it sounded sweet to me.
Thought i get up and take a look around but my feet got in my way,
Stumbled to the floor, she was right at the door, i could even see her face.

But how could it be (how could it be)
She ran away from me.
My best friends gone and i'm so all alone.

I kind-a miss you, brandy, i'm so all alone,
When are you coming back home?
I really miss you, brandy, missing you ev'ry day,
Are you coming home to stay?

Sitting on a lonely beach building houses out of sand,
Like a little child with a fantasy, just a fraction of a man.
I was in love when they put her down on my doorstep in the rain,
I could feel the love coming into my heart through my window pane.

But how could i know (how could i know)
That she would up and go
My best friends gone and i'm so all alone. (alone)

I really miss you, brandy, i'm so all alone,
When are you coming back home?
I really miss you, brandy, missing you ev'ry day,
Are you coming home to stay?

I kind-a miss you, brandy when are you coming back home?
I'm so all alone.
Said i really miss you, brandy, missing you ev'ry day,
Are you coming home to stay?

"Bye Bye Blackbird"

"Bye Bye Blackbird"



Pack up all my cares and woes,
Here i go, singing low,
Bye, bye, blackbird.
Where somebody waits for me,
Sugar is sweet, so is she,
Bye, bye, blackbird.

No one here can love and understand me,
Oh, what hard luck stories they all hand me.

Make my bed and light the light,
I'll arrive late tonight,
Blackbird, bye, bye.

Pack up all my cares and woes,
Here i go, singing low,
Bye, bye, blackbird.
Where somebody waits for me,
Sugar is sweet, so is she,
Bye, bye, bye, bye, blackbird.

I said, no one here can love and understand me,
Oh, what hard luck stories they all hand me.

So, make my bed and light the light,
I'll arrive late tonight,
Blackbird, bye, bye.
Make my bed and light the light,
I'll arrive late tonight,
Blackbird,
I said blackbird,
I said blackbird,
Oh, blackbird, bye, bye.

"Call Me"

"Call Me"



Call me, if you wanna see me,
Call me, if you still believe me.
'Cause i'm not gonna hide,
No, i'm not gonna hide from you.

If you still think you need me,
Like i do, i want you to feed me.
With your love, i'll be strong,
With your love, ill be strong and carry on.

Don't be hurt by what you've seen, dear,
I know it's like a dream, dear.

If we don't, then we know we'll blew it.
'Cause we've gotta give it a try, (gotta give it, give it a try)
Yeah, we've gotta give it a try, yeh, you and i.

We tried, (we know that we tried)
But we didn't make it. (we tried, you know that we tried)

"Can She Do It Like She Dances"

"Can She Do It Like She Dances"



I was sitting at the bar, talking to a lady friend,
Sipping on a glass of wine and making time, - you know what i mean.
Then my favourite record played and i turned to watch the crowd,
But one dancin' lady made me spill my wine.
She looked so wild and she looked so free and she moved so temptingly,
All the boys had just one question on their minds;

Can she do it like she dances?
Can she do it like she dances?
Oh, the way she move, i'd like to rendezvous her,
Find if she can really do it like she dances.

(oo, oo, oo)

As she moved around the floor i kept movin' 'round the bar,
Almost got into a fight to keep her in sight.
When the dance was finally through, found myself exhausted too,
And i knew that i'd be wondering all night:

Can she do it like she dances?
Can she do it like she dances?
Oh, the way she move, i'd like to rendezvous,
And find if she can really do it like she dances.

Some girls get off by putting on a show,
But when you get them home the show is over.
Well, on the dance floor there's no move they don't know,
But you get her alone and her body turns to stone.

So i finished up my drink and was heading for the door,
When i sw that lady giving me the eye.
Well, we danced the night away and i'm seeing her today
And i hope that i will find out by on by:

Can she do it like she dances?
I said, can she do it like she dances?
(can she do it like she dances?)
Oh, the way she move, i'd like to rendezvous,
And find if she can really do it like she dances.

Can she do it like she dances?
I wanna know if she can do it,
I wanna know if she can do it,
I wanna know if she can do it just like she dances.

Oh, come on, baby, dance with me one time,
Dance with me two times,
Well, if you dance we can do it all over the floor!
(can she do it like she dances?)
(can she do it like she dances?)
(can she do it?)

"Can't Do It Wrong"

"Can't Do It Wrong"



Sometimes I walk and I don't know the way
Don't have a map but I can't be afraid to go on
'Cause as long as I am doing it I can't do it wrong

I hear the birds when I open my eyes
It sounds like music, it's part of my life, is a song
And as long as I am singing it I can't sing it wrong

We think sometimes the choices that we make
Will break our hearts but there are no mistakes

When I'm honest here's what I found
Love is the answer and the answer is coming on strong
As long as I am giving it I can't give it wrong

We think sometimes the choices that we make
Will break our hearts but there are no mistakes
So look around, it's never gonna be too late
To open up your heart, it's easy, you don't have to wait

We can't get nowhere if we're all standing still
And when the chips are down you know that we will carry on
As long as we're doing it we can't do it wrong
They will all carry on 'cause as long
As we're doing it we can't do it wrong

"Choose Love"

"Choose Love"



Dark clouds in my head disappear
The sky is turning blue, now you're here
We've come a long way, day after day, (we still got a long way to go)
You've got to pay your dues, if you want to sing the blues
But, no matter what you choose, choose love

The Long and Winding Road, is more than a song
Tomorrow Never Knows, What Goes On
To live your life right, you've got to let in the light, and let all the darkness go
You've got to pay your dues, if you want to sing the blues
But, no matter who you choose, choose love

Love, love, love, love, love
Choose Love!

You've got to pay your dues, if you want to sing the blues
But, no matter how you choose
You've got to pay your dues, if you want to sing the blues
But, no matter what you choose, choose love

Choose love, choose love, choose love

(Love is the answer)

"Christmas Eve"

"Christmas Eve"



It's christmas and you're not here,
The snow is falling down, like my tears.
I see your presents by the tree,
I can't believe you're not with me
On christmas, christmas eve.

It's christmas with stars above,
How many times has it been said a time for love?
And underneath the mistletoe
I'm standing here all alone
On christmas, christmas eve.

I hear your voice
I see your smile
You were my christmas song.
But now you're gone, now you're gone.

It's christmas, it seems so long,
The lights are all around the tree but not turned on.
I saw your footprints in the snow
I'd never thought you'd really go
On christmas, christmas eve.

It's christmas.

It's christmas eve.
