"Falling In Love With Love"

"Falling In Love With Love"

Lovely witches
Let the stitches
Keep your fingers under control
Cut the thread, but leave
The whole heart whole

Marian maids can sew and sleep
Wives can only sew and weep
Falling in love with love
Is falling for make-believe
Falling in love with love
Is playing the fool

Caring too much is such a juvenile fancy
Learning to trust is just
For children in school
I fell in love with love one night
When the moon was full
I was unwise with eyes
Unable to see

I fell in love with love
With love everlasting
But love fell out with me

I fell in love with love one night
When the moon was full
I was unwise with eyes
Unable to see

I fell in love with love
With love everlasting
But love fell out with me

"Fascinatin' Rhythm"

"Fascinatin' Rhythm"

Fascinating rhythm, you've got me on the go
Fascinating rhythm, I'm all a-quiver
What a mess you're making, the neighbors want to know
Why I'm always shaking, just like a flivver.

Oh, every morn I'm up with the sun
To find at night no work has been done

I know that once it didn't matter, but now you're doing wrong
When you start to patter, I'm so unhappy
Won't you take the day off, decide to run along
Somewhere far away off, and make it snappy

Oh, how I long to be the man I used to be
Fascinating rhythm, stop picking on me

Oh, how I long to be the man I used to be
Fascinating rhythm, won't you ever stop picking on me?

That's it!

"Firefly"

"Firefly"

I call her Firefly
Cause, oh, my
She radiates moonglow
Wants none of that noon glow
She starts to glitter
When the sun goes down

Bout eight p.m., it's mayhem
She switches the brights up
Lights up and gives me a call
Take me to the Fireflies ball

But when I get her there
Set her there
Do I get to pet her there
And grab me some glow

No, she's a gad about, mad about
Luring every lad about
While leaving me moaning low

Oh, Firefly, why can't I
Latch onto you no how
Oh, how I love you but gee
While you set the night on
Firefly, shine a little light on me

But when I get her there
Set her there
Do I get to pet her there
And grab me some glow

No, she's a gad about, mad about
Luring every lad about
While leaving me moaning low

Oh, Firefly, why can't I
Latch on for you no how
Oh, how I love you but gee
While you set the night on
Firefly, shine a little light on
Shine a little light on
Shine a little light on me
(in the mornin')

"Fly Me To The Moon (In Other Words)"

"Fly Me To The Moon (In Other Words)"

Poets often use many words
To say a simple thing
It takes thought and time and rhyme
To make a poem sing
With music and words I've been playing
For you I've written a song
To make sure you know what I'm saying
I'll translate as I go along

Fly me to the moon
And let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like
On Jupiter and Mars
In other words
Hold my hand
In other words
Darlin kiss me

Fill my heart with song
And let me sing forevermore
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words
Please be true
In other words
I love you..

"Fool Of Fools"

"Fool Of Fools"

“Fool of fools
Wake up before she breaks your heart”
I warned myself from the start

Be prepared
For tears you’re gonna shed
To my heart I said,
“Why reach for love above your head?”

She’ll break the rules
She’s not the kind who could be true
You come from two different schools

Did I get burned?
Surprise, surprise
She really learned
To love this fool of fools

"Fools Rush In"

"Fools Rush In"

Fools rush in where angels fear to tread
And so I come to you my love my heart above my head
Though I see the danger there
If there's a chance for me then I don't care

Fools rush in where wise men never go
But wise men never fall in love so how are they to know
When we met I felt my life begin
So open up your heart and let this fool rush in

When we met I felt my life begin
So open up your heart and let this fool rush in

"For Once In My Life"
(feat. Stevie Wonder)

"For Once In My Life"
(feat. Stevie Wonder)

For once in my life I have someone who needs me
Someone I've needed so long
For once, unafraid, I can go where life leads me
Somehow I know I'll be strong

For once I can touch what my heart used to dream of
Long before I knew
Oooh Someone warm like you
Would make my dream come true

Yeah yeah yeah

For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it hurt me before
For once, I have something I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore

For once, I can say, this is mine, you can't take it
As long as I know I have love, I can make it
For once in my life, I have someone who needs me

HE He He Hey yeah
Ooh baby ooh baby

For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it hurt me before
For once, I have something I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore

For once, I can say, this is mine, you can't take it
Long as I know I have love, I can make it
For once in my life, I have someone who needs me

For once in my life
Yeah Somebody like my
Ooh baby

"Georgia Rose"

"Georgia Rose"

Georgia Rose
Georgia Rose
You’re the most precious rose Dixie grows
Now some folks don’t think its right
‘Cause your skins dark as night
You know you’ve a heart lily white

To the good Lord up above
We all look just the same
Don’t hang your head down in shame

Georgia Rose
Georgia Rose
Don’t be blue ‘cause you’re black
Georgia Rose

"Get Happy"

"Get Happy"

Forget your troubles and just get happy, you better chase all your cares away.
Sing Hallelujah, come on get happy, get ready for the Judgment Day.
The sun is shining, come on get happy, the Lord is waiting to take your hand.
Shout Hallelujah, come on get happy, we're going to the promised land.
We're heading 'cross the river, wash your sins 'way in the tide.
It's all so peaceful on the other side.

"Girl Talk"

"Girl Talk"

They like to chat about the dresses they will wear tonight
They chew the fat about their tresses and the neighbor's fight;
Inconsequential things that men don't really care to know
Become essential things that women find so apropos
But that's a dame, they're all the same it's just a game they call it
Girl talk, girl talk

They all meow about the ups and downs of all their friends,
The who, the how, the why -- they dish the dirt, it never ends.
The weaker sex, the "speaker" sex we mortal males behold
But though we joke, we wouldn't trade you for a ton of gold.

So baby stay and gab away, but hear me say that after
Girl talk, talk to me.
So baby stay, and gab away, but hear me say
That after girl talk, talk to me.

But that's a dame, they're all the same it's just a game they call it
Girl talk, girl talk

So baby stay, and gab away, but hear me say
That after girl talk, talk to me.

It's all been planned, so take my hand; please understand
The sweetest girl talk talks of me
