Never knew the softness of his tender kiss
Don't know if he's weak or strong All I know is he's in every dream I dream All night long Mmm, never heard him speak a single word of love Never knew his favorite song Because he only speaks to me in dreams I dream All night long When I'm asleep He tells me he's in love with me And how much he needs me to be near But at best, a dream is just a fantasy If I touch his hand, he'll disappear No, no, no, no, no No, I don't need a lover that's just a memory Fate, how could you be so wrong? Now I've got to find a man who's haunting me All night long All night long All night long All night long |

Gather 'round me, everybody
Gather 'round me, while I preach some The topic will be sin And that's what I'm agin' If you wanna hear my story Then settle back and just sit tight While I start reviewing The attitude of doing right You got to ac-cent-tchu-ate the positive E-lim-i-nate the negative And latch on to the affirmative Don't mess with mister inbetween You got to spread joy up to the maximum Bring gloom down to the minimum And have faith, or pandemonium Liable to walk upon the scene To illustrate my last remark Jonah in the whale, noah in the ark, What did they do, just when everything looked so dark? Man, they said, we better Ac-cent-tchu-ate the positive E-lim-i-nate the negative And latch on to the affirmative Don't mess with mister inbetween |

I've looked around all over town
And I'm so lonely and so blue I've looked around and all over But I can't find nobody like you, you, you, yeah Now, it's all so lonely since you went away And I don't know what to do I've looked around all over, over I just can't find nobody, nobody like you Tears seem to fall when I'm away, oh, when I'm away from you And I've tried to understand the reason why And now I know it's all, it's all because I love you, I love you so much My heart is yours until the day that I die And oh, why don't you hold me Hold me and never, never let me go? Why don't you, why don't you love me, love me And vanish all thoughts of sorrow? I love you, I love you, just can't find nobody like you |

I talked to you today, we've loved each other
For so long in that special way And if circumstances should keep us apart I just want you to know That you will remain forever here in my heart Sweet, sweet bitter love The taste still lingers, going through my helpless fingers You slipped away, ooh, yes you did Sweet, sweet bitter love, what joy you told me What pain you didn't mean to but you brought me And so sure, baby and so sure to stay Our magic dreams have lost their spells And where there, where there was hope Oh, there's an, an empty shell Oh, sweet, na na na, na na na, na na, bitter love Why have you awaken and then forsaken A trusting heart like mine My magic, my magic dreams They've all, they've all, all lost their spells And where there, where I had a little bit of hope Yes sir, there is, oh look at me now, there is an empty shell Oh, sweet, na na na, na na na, na na, bitter love Why have you awakened and then And then and then and then and then you know, you have forsaken A trusting heart, yeah like mine, a trusting heart like mine I love you boy, yes I do, like mine |

She may be weary
Women do get weary Wearing the same shabby dress And when she's weary Try a little tenderness You know she's waiting Just anticipating things she may never possess While she's without them, Try a little tenderness It's not just sentimental She has her grief and care And a word that's soft and gentle Makes it easier to bear You won't regret it Women don't forget it Love is their whole happiness It's all so easy Try a little tenderness She may be weary Women do get weary Wearing the same shabby dress And when she's weary Try a little tenderness You know she's waiting Just anticipating things she may never possess While she's without them Try a little tenderness It's not just sentimental She has her grief and care And a word that's soft and gentle Makes it easier to bear You won't regret it Women don't forget it Love is their whole happiness It's all so easy Try a little tenderness |

Skylark
Have you anything to say to me? Won't you tell me where my love can be? Is there a meadow in the mist Where someone's waiting to be kissed? Skylark Have you seen a valley green with spring? Where my heart can go a journeying Over the shadows and the rain To a blossom covered lane And in your lonely flight Haven't you heard the music in the night? Wonderful music, faint as a will o' the wisp Crazy as a loon, sad as a gypsy serenading the moon Oh skylark I don't know if you can find these things But my heart is riding on your wings So if you see them anywhere Won't you lead me there? Oh skylark I don't know if you can find these things But my heart is riding on your wings So if you see them anywhere Won't you lead me there? |

Them that's God shall get Them that's not shall lose So the Bible says And it still is news Momma may have Poppa may have But God bless the child That's got his own That's got his own Yeah, the strong gets more While the weak ones fade Empty pockets don't Ever make the grade Momma may have Poppa may have But God bless the child That's got his own That's got his own Money, you've got lots of friends Crowdin' round the door When it's gone and Spendin' ends Rich realations give A crust of bread and such You can help yourself But don't take too much Momma may have Poppa may have But God bless the child That's got his own That's got his own |

If ever I would leave you, it wouldn't be in summer
Seeing you in summer, I never would go Your hair streaked with sunlight, your arms red as flame Your face with a luster that puts gold to shame And if I'd ever leave you, it couldn't be in autumn Just how I'd leave in autumn, I never, never would know I've seen how you sparkle when fall nips the air I know you in autumn and I must be there Oh would I leave you running merrily, merrily, merrily through the snow? Or on a wintry evening when you catch the fire's glow? If ever I would leave you, it wouldn't be in springtime Knowing how in springtime I'm bewitched, bewitched, bewitched by you so Oh, no, not in springtime, summer, winter, or fall If ever I would leave, leave you at all |
