To let it end would surely be a sin I could never look for any other love, dear #01) If I had forever With nothing else to do I don't know if I could show Half my love for you #02) If you resist Look what you miss Baby, if it's late at night (nighty-night) Or if the sun is shinin' bright (brighty-bright) #03) I still hear your sea winds blowin' I still see her dark eyes glowin' She was twenty-one #04) Sweeping cobwebs from the edges of my mind Had to get away to see what we could find #05) Before we say we're in love Are we right for each other? Can what we feel be lasting love? #06) It'll take time, I know it But in a while You're gonna be mine, I know it We'll do it in style #07) She smiles so nice like she wants to come with me, uh-huh But she's tied to the dock and she can't get free #08) They know the hurt and pain Of losing a love you can never regain #09) If she finds that I've been 'round to see you Tell her that I'm well and feeling fine #10) Sometimes she'd shop And she would show me what she'd bought #11) How long can I go on amusing myself? Night after night, sitting all alone While you're in the arms of someone else #12) Just tuned my car, now she really peels A-lookin' real tough with chrome reverse wheels A Blue Coral wax job sure looks pretty #13) And he plays at stocks and shares And he goes to the regatta He adores the girl next door 'Cause he's dying to get at her #14) Why did I listen to my friends When they told me what to do? Yes, I still have my friends But I don't have you #15) There I found an angel An angel I could love She told me that she knew me That I'd been spoken of #16) If I gathered all my means (all my means) In a pile beside me (in a pile) It couldn't help to fill my dreams (fill my dreams) #17) My mother once told me something And every word is true Don't waste your time on a fella Who doesn't love you #18) Except to pray That there'll come a day When love will start A flame in your heart #19) I play the game Pretending out loud But it don't seem the same #20) Let's make a vow To never, ever part #21) For here in my arms is your place When the night grows cold And I want to hold you #22) I'm gonna buy her pretty presents Just like the ones in a catalog Gonna show how much I love her Let her know one way or the other #23) Made my heart an open book Why haven't I told you? #24) Every time I feel a little groove coming on, I just have to move I got a tune I play I got a song I sing I got a dance I do, yeah-yeah You can do it, too #25) ------------ Tie-Breakers ------------ It's the big house on the corner The rich and the poor go there You get a chance to mix with everybody Nobody seems to care #T1) Well now, listen here people 'Bout to sing a song I'm goin' to St. Louis And I won't be long #T2) ============================================================================ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please fill in the following information (append at the end of each line): Name(s) = E-mail address = Age(s) [will be published if provided] = Number of people (including you) who contributed to your answers = ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
