"Let Me Down Easy"

"Let Me Down Easy"


Is love behind me?
Though I need you to satisfy me
Destiny will prove to divide me
For you're a part of me
I feel the love within you
Your beauty lies deep within you
Touching me when you feel the need to
Become as one with me
So let me down easy
If ever you were to leave
My love, let me down easy
For all I know is you
Take you for granted?
That could never, never be
An advantage
All this love, and free from demanding
You have always felt the need to be pleased
And you stay close beside me
Though our minds are free for deciding
The life to lead and desiring
To see what they can see
Oooh!
Let me down easy
If ever you were to leave
My love, let me down easy
Ooohhh...
Ah! Spending time, time with you
Counting the days of my life
Oh, hoping that, that with me
You will stay
So let me down easy
If ever you were to leave
My love, let me down easy
For all I know is you
Being around you
Lovely things I feel are about you
Being strong until I'm without you
For you're the strength in me
And you give me inspiration
Realizing that it has taken
More love and more love makin'
To fulfill my every need
So for me
Let me down easy
If ever you were to leave
My love, let me down easy
If ever you were to leave
My love, let me down
Oh, easy
If ever you were to leave
My lo-ove, let me down, let me down, let me down
Easy, baby
Oh-ho! Let me down, hey, down, down, down, down
Easy
Hey, if ever, if ever, ever, ever you were to leave me

"Listen To The Music"

"Listen To The Music"


Don't you feel it growin', day by day
People gettin' ready for the news
Some are happy, some are sad
Oh, we got to let the music play
What the people need
Is a way to make 'em smile
It ain't so hard to do if you know how
Gotta get a message
Get it on through
Oh, now mama's go'n' to after 'while
Oh, oh, listen to the music
Oh, oh, listen to the music
Oh, oh, listen to the music
All the time
Well I know, you know better
Everything I say
Meet me in the country for a day
We'll be happy
And we'll dance
Oh, we're gonna dance our blues away
And if I'm feelin' good to you
And you're feelin' good to me
There ain't nothin' we can't do or say
Feelin' good, feeling fine
Oh, baby, let the music play
Oh, oh, listen to the music
Oh, oh, listen to the music
Oh, oh, listen to the music
All the time
Like a lazy flowing river
Surrounding castles in the sky
And the crowd is growing bigger
List'nin' for the happy sounds
And I got to let them fly
Oh, oh, listen to the music
Oh, oh, listen to the music
Oh, oh, listen to the music
All the time

"Little Miss Sweetness"

"Little Miss Sweetness"


Now I'm a guy who's fond of sweet things
Sweet things I adore
In coffee most take one or two lumps
But I use three or four
But since I kissed your sweet, sweet lips
Sugar ain't sweet no more
Your kiss was sweeter than any cup of coffee
I ever made before
You're little Miss Sweetness, you're little Miss Sweetness
The sweetest girl in the world
If ever a man had a sweet tooth
I have one indeed
I order cookies and cakes and malts and shakes
From the menus that I read
But all the cakes and shakes and malts I've bought
Put together don't exceed
The sweetness in just one of your kisses
Baby, you're the one I need
You're little Miss Sweetness, you're little Miss Sweetness
The sweetest girl in the world
Ooh yeah, now listen to me you sweet thing
Hear what I have to say
If ever you need somebody
Send for me without delay
But do one thing for me
Don't ever go out on a rainy day
'Cause if it's true that rain melts sugar
You will surely melt away
You're little Miss Sweetness, you're little Miss Sweetness
The sweetest girl in the world, oh yeah
The sweetest girl in the world, oh sweetest girl

"Livin' In The Life"

"Livin' In The Life"


Somebody said, I was living in the life
Somebody told me, I was living in the life
Think that you might know, you find that you're really wrong
My pictures come and go but my living has got to go on

And if you think it's easy it's only 'cause
You ain't me and I ain't you
Check out the difference between the two

Somebody said, it was easy in my life
Somebody told me, I had made it in my life
Try to understand my determination win
You can't only stand on the outside looking in

And if you think it's easy it's only 'cause
You ain't me and I ain't you
Check out the difference between the two

Somebody said, I was living in the life
Somebody told me, I was living in the life
Try to understand my determination win
You can't only stand on the outside looking in

You ain't me and I ain't you
That's the horrible difference between the two

"Love Is A Wonderful Thing"

"Love Is A Wonderful Thing"


Birds fly, they don't think twice
They simply spread their wings
The sun shines, it don't ask why
Or what the whole thing means
The same applies to you and I
We never question that
So good, it's just understood
Ain't no conjecture
Just a matter of fact
Love is a wonderful thing
Make ya smile through the pouring rain
Love is a wonderful thing
I'll say it again and again
Turn your world into one sweet dream
Take your heart and make it sing
Love, love is a wonderful thing
The only thing a river knows
Is runnin' to the sea
And every spring when a flower grows
It happens naturally
The same magic when you're in my arms
No logic can define
Don't know why, just feels so right
I only know it happens every time
Oh when the cold wind blows
I know you're gonna be there to warm me
That's what keeps me goin'
And our sweet love will keep on growin'
Love is a wonderful, wonderful thing
Love is a wonderful, wonderful thing
It's what makes honey taste sweet
It's what makes your life complete
