You are the answer
to my lonely prayer
You are an angel
from above
I was so lonely
till you come to me
With the wonder of
your love
I don't know how
I ever lived before
You are my life
my destiny
Oh my darling
I love you so
You mean
everything to me
If you should ever
ever go away
There would be
lonely tears to cry
The sun above would
never shine again
There would be
teardrops in the sky
So hold me close and
never let me go
Any say our love
will- be-
Oh my darling
I love you so
You mean
everything to me
So hold me close and
never let me go
Any say our love
will always be
Oh my darling
I love you so
You mean
ev'rything to me.

A hot summer night
fell like a net
I've gotta find
my baby yet
I need you
to soothe my head
Turn my blue
heart to red
Doctor doctor
give me the news
I've got a bad case
of loving you
No pill's gonna
cure my ill
I've got a bad case
of loving you-
A pretty face don't
make no pretty heart
I learned that
buddy from the start

a little bit shy
Momma I ain't
that kind of guy
Doctor doctor
give me the news
I've got a bad case
of loving you
No pill's gonna
cure my ill
I've got a bad case
of loving you-

I know you like it

Tell me momma are

You had me down
2 1 to zip
smile of judas
on your lip
shake my fist
knock on wood
I've got it bad
and I've got it good
Doctor doctor
give me the news
I've got a bad case
of loving you
No pill's gonna
cure my ill
I've got a bad case
of loving you-

Someone told me
long ago
There's a calm
before the storm
I know it's been
comin' for some time
When it's over
so they say
It'll rain
a sunny day
I know shinin' down
like water
I want to know
have you ever seen
The rain
I want to know
Have you ever seen
the rain
Comin' down
on a day
Yesterday and
days before
Sun is cold
and rain is hard
I know been that way
for all my time
'Til forever
on it goes
Through the circle
fast and slow
I know it can't stop
I wonder
I want to know
have you ever seen
The rain
I want to know
Have you ever seen
the rain
Comin' down
on a day yeah-
I want to know
have you ever seen
The rain
I want to know
Have you ever seen
the rain
Comin' down
on a day-

Met you by surprise
I didn't realize
That my life would
change forever
Saw you standing there
I didn't know I cared
There was
something special
In the air
dreams are my reality
The only kind of
real fantasy
Illusions are
a common thing
I try to live
in dreams
It seems as
if it's meant to be
Dreams are
my reality
A different kind
of reality
I dream of loving
in the night
And loving
seems alright
Although
it's only fantasy-

If you do exist
honey don't resist
Show me a new way
of loving
Tell me that it's true
show me what to do
I feel
something special
About you
dreams are my reality
The only kind
of reality
Maybe my foolishness
has past
And maybe now at last
I'll see
How a real thing
can be
Dreams are
my reality
A wonderous world
where I like to be
I dream of holding you
all night
And holding you
seems right
Perhaps that's
my reality-

Met you by surprise
I didn't realize
That my life would
change forever
Tell me that it's true
feelings that are cue
I feel
something special
About you
dreams are my reality
A wonderous world
where I like to be
Illusions are
a common thing
I try to live
in dreams
Although
it's only fantasy
Dreams are
my reality
I like to dream of you
close to me
I dream of loving
in the night
And loving you
seems right
Perhaps that's
my reality-

I--- don't want

There is just

Santa claus won't

With a toy

More than you
could ever know-
Make my wish
come true--
All I want
for Christmas

I'm just gonna
keep on waiting-
Under neath the
mistletoe--
I won't make a list
and sen it
To the north pole
for saint nick-
I won't ever

To hear those magic
reindeer click-
'Cause I just want you

Holding on
to me so tight-
What more
can I do-- baby
All I want
for Christmas
Is you------ you--

Everywhere--
and the sound
Of children's
laughter
Fills the air--
and everyone
Is singing
I hear those sleigh
Bells ringing
santa won't you bring
Me the one
I really need
Won't you please bring
my baby to me-
Oh I don't want

Standing right outside

Such a feelings
coming over me
there is
wonder in most
everything I see
not a cloud in the sky
got the sun in my eyes
and I
won't be surprised
if it's a dream
everything
I want the world to be
is now coming
true especially
for me
and the reason
is clear
it's because
you are here
you're the nearest
thing to
heaven that I've seem
I'm on the
top of the world
looking
down on creation
and the only
explanation I can find
is the love
that I've found ever
since you've
been around
your loves
put me at the
top of the
world-

Something in the wind
has learned my name
and it's telling me
that things are not
the same in the leaves
on the trees
and the touch of
the breeze
there's a pleasing
sence of happiness
for me
There is only
one wish on my mind
when this day is
through I hope
that I will find
that tomorrow
will be just the
same for you and me
all I need will be
mine if you are here
I'm on the
top of the world
looking
down on creation
and the only
explanation I can find
is the love
that l've found ever
since you're been
around your loves
put me at the
top of the world
I'm on the
top of the world
looking
down on creation
and the only
explanation I can find
is the love
that I've found ever
since you've been
around your loves
put me at the
top of the
world-

Touch by touch

all time lover
skin to skin
come on down
my cover-

When I feel the
time is right
and you're
staying by my side
and the love
give to me
makes my heart beat
when my
fantasies fly away
but my
feeling makes me stay
I see the fire
in your eyes
It makes my
heart beat
Do it just do
do it night and day
you're my
all time lover
Do it just do
do it in away
like there is
no other
touch by touch

all time lover
skin to skin
Come on down my cover-

When my heart is full
of my love
it makes me
a trembling down
Love's the games
that we play
now we make
When our love
is clear and bright
It's our way
to see the light
There's a fire
in our heart
night and day
Do it just do

Come on down my cover-

It's nine o'clock
on a Saturday
The regular crowd
shuffles in
There's an old man
sitting next to me
Making love
to his tonic and gin

He says son can you
play me a memory
I'm not really sure
how it goes
But it's sad
and it's sweet
And I knew it
complete
When I wore
a younger man's
Clothes na-- na---
na- na-- na-
Sing us a song
you're the piano man
Sing us a song
tonight
Well we're all in
the mood for a melody
And you've got us
feeling alright-

Now John at the bar
is a friend of mine
He gets me my drinks
for free
And he's quick
with a joke
Or to light up
your smoke
But there's someplace
that he'd rather be
He says Bill I believe
this is killing me
As the smile ran away
from his face
Well I'm sure that
I could be
A movie star
if I could get out
Of this place na--
na--- na- na-- na-
Now Paul is
a real estate novelist
Who never had time
for a wife
And he's talking
with Davy
Who's still
in the navy
And probably
will be for life

And the waitress is
practicing politics
As the businessmen
slowly get stoned
Yes they're sharing
a drink
They call
loneliness
But it's better than
drinking alone

Sing us a song
you're the piano man
Sing us a song
tonight
Well we're all in
the mood for a melody
And you've got us
feeling alright-

It's a pretty good
crowd for a Saturday
And the manager
give me a smile
'Cause he knows
that it's me
They've been coming
to see
To forget about
life for a while
And the piano
it sounds
Like a carnival
and the microphone
Smells like a beer and
they sit at the bar
And put bread
in my jar
And say man what
are you doing here
Oh- na-- na---
na- na-- na-
Sing us a song
you're the piano man
Sing us a song
tonight
Well we're all in
the mood for a melody
And you've got us
feeling alright-

Uhm uhm
uhm uh uhm uhm
Some people live
for the fortune
Some people live
just for the fame
Some people live
for the power yeah
Some people live
just to play the game
Some people think that
the physical things
Define
what's within
And I been
there before
But that
life's a bore
So full
of the superficial
Some people
want it all
But I don't want
nothing at all
If it ain't
you baby
If I ain't got
you baby
Some people want
diamond rings
Some just want
everything
But everything
means nothing
If I ain't got
you yeah
Some people search
for a fountain
That promises
forever young
Some people need
three dozen roses
And that's
the only way
To prove you love him
hand me the world
On a silver platter
and what
Good would it be
with no one to share
With no one who truly
cares for me
Some people
want it all
But I don't want
nothing at all
If it ain't
you baby
If I ain't got
you baby
Some people want
diamond rings
Some just want
everything
But everything
means nothing
If I ain't got
you you you
Some people
want it all
But I don't want
nothing at all
If it ain't
you baby
If I ain't got
you baby
Some people want
diamond rings
Some just want
everything
But everything
means nothing
If I ain't got
you yeah-
If I ain't got you
with me baby uh
Woo see nothing
in this
Whole wide world
don't mean a thing
If I ain't got you
with me baby-

Here I stand
all alone
Have my mind
turned to stone
Have my heart
filled up with ice
To avoid
it's breakin' twice
Thanks to you
my dear old friend
But you can't help
this is the end
Of a tale
that wasn't right
I won't have no sleep
tonight
In my heart
in my soul
I really hate to pay
this toll
Should be strong
young and bold
But the only thing
I feel is pain
It's alright
we'll stay friends
Trustin'
in my confidence
And let's say
it's just alright
You won't sleep alone
tonight
In my heart
in my soul
I really hate to pay
this toll
Should be strong
young and bold
But the only thing
I feel is pain-

With my heart
with my soul
Some guys cry
you bought and sold
They've been strong
young and bold
And they say play
this song again
In my heart
in my soul
I really hate to pay
this toll
Should be strong
young and bold
But the only thing
I feel is pain-

You're just too
good to be true
Can't take my eyes
off you
You'd be like
heaven to touch
I wanna hold you
so much
At long last
love has arrived
And I thank god
I'm alive
You're just too
good to be true
Can't take my eyes
off you
Pardon the way
that I stare
There's nothin
else to compare
The sight of you
leaves me weak
There are no words
left to speak
But if you
feel like I feel
Please let me know
that it's real
You're just too
good to be true
Can't take my eyes
off you

I love you baby
and if it's
Quite all right
I need you baby
To warm the
lonely night
I love you baby
trust in me when I say
Oh pretty baby
don't bring me
Down I pray
oh pretty baby
Now that I found
you stay
And let me
love you
Baby let me
love you
You're just too
good to be true
Can't take my eyes
off you
You'd be like
heaven to touch
I wanna hold you
so much
At long last
love has arrived
And I thank god
I'm alive
You're just too
good to be true
Can't take my eyes
off you

I love you baby
and If It's
Quite all right
I need you baby
To warm the
lonely night
I love you baby
trust in me when I say
Oh pretty baby
don't bring me
Down I pray
oh pretty baby
Now that I found
you stay
Love you baby
trust in me when I say
I need you baby
don't bring me
Down I pray
oh pretty baby
Now that I found
you stay
And let me
love you
Baby let me
love you

This romeo is
bleeding
But you can't see
his blood
It's nothing
but some feelings
That this old dog
kicked up
It's been raining
since you left me
Now I'm drowning
in the flood
You see I've always
been a fighter
But without you
I give up
Now I can't
sing a love song
Like the way
it's meant to be
Well I guess I'm not
that good anymore
But baby
that's just me
And I will love you
baby always
And I'll be there
forever and a day
Always
I'll be there
Till the stars
don't shine
Till the heavens
burst and the words
Don't rhyme
and I know when
I die you'll be
on my mind
And I'll love you
always
Now your pictures
that you left behind
Are just memories
of a different life
Some that made us
laugh some
That made us cry
one that made
You have to say
goodbye
What I'd give to run
my fingers through
Your hair
touch your lips
To hold you near
when you say
Your prayers try
to understand
I've made mistakes
I'm just a man
When he holds
you close
When he pulls
you near
When he says
the words you've been
Needing to hear
I'll wish
I was him cause those
words are mine
To say to you till the
end of time
That I will love you
baby always
And I'll be there
forever and a day
Always
if you told me
To cry for you
I could
If you told me
to die for you
I would
take a look at
My face
there's no price
I won't pay
to say
These words
to you

Well there ain't
no luck
In these loaded dice
but baby if you
Give me just
one more try
We can pack up
our old dreams
And our old lives
we'll find a place
Where the sun still
shines
And I will love you
baby always
And I'll be there
forever and a day
Always
I'll be there
Till the stars
don't shine
Till the heavens
burst and the words
Don't rhyme
and I know when
I die you'll be
on my mind
And I'll love you
always always

Yesterday
All my troubles
Seemed so far away
Now it looks as though
They're here to stay
Oh I believe in
Yesterday
Suddenly
I'm not half the man
I used to be
There's a shadow
Hanging over me
Oh Yesterday
Came suddenly
Why she
Had to go I don't know
She wouldn't say
I said
Something wrong now I
long for yesterday
Yesterday
love was such an easy
Game to play
Now I need a place to
Hide away
Oh I believe in
Yesterday Why she
Had to go I don't know
She wouldn't say
I said
Something wrong now I
long for yesterday
Yesterday
love was such an easy
Game to play
Now I need a place to
Hide away
Oh I believe in
Yesterday Mm mm
Mm mm mm mm mm.

How many roads
must a man walk down
before you call
him a man?
How many seas
must a white dove sail
before she sleeps
in the sand?
How many times
must the cannon balls
fly before
they're forever banned?
The answer my friend
is blowing in the wind
The answer
is blowing in the wind-

How many years
can a mountain exist
before it's washed
to the sea?
How many years
can some people exist
before they're allowed
to be free?
How many times
can a man turn
his head pretending
he just doesn't see?
The answer my friend
is blowing in the wind
The answer
is blowing in the wind-

How many times
must a man look up
before he can see
the sky?
How many ears
must one man have
before he can
people cry?
How many deaths will
it take till he knows
That too many people
have died?
The answer my friend
is blowing in the wind
The answer
is blowing in the wind-

This is gonna
hurt
But I blame myself
first
'Cause I ignored
the truth
Drunk off of that love
my head up
There's no forgetting
you
You've awoken me
but you're choking me
I was so obsessed
gave you all of me
And now honestly
I got nothing left
I loved you
dangerously
More than the air
that I breathe
Knew we would crash
at the speed
That we were going
didn't care
If the explosion
ruined me
Baby I loved you
dangerously mmm mmm
I loved you
dangerously
Usually
I hold the power
With both my hands
tied behind my back
Look at
how things changed
'Cause now you're
the train
And I'm tied
to the track
You've awoken me
but you're choking me
I was so obsessed
gave you all of me
And now honestly
I got nothing left
'Cause I loved you
dangerously
More than the air
that I breathe
Knew we would crash
at the speed
That we were going
didn't care
If the explosion
ruined me
Baby I loved you
dangerously
You took me down down
down down
And kissed my lips
with goodbye
I see it now now
now now
It was a matter
of time
You know
I know
There's only one place
this could lead
But you are the fire
and I'm gasoline
I love you I love you
I love you
I loved you
dangerously
Woo more than the air
that I breathe
Oh now knew we would
crash at the speed
That we were going
didn't care
If the explosion
ruined me
Oh oh baby I loved you
dangerously mmm mmm
Woo I loved you
dangerously
Woo I loved you
dangerously

Woo you can dance
you can jive
Having the time
of your life woo
See that girl
watch that scene
Digging
the dancing queen
Friday night and
the lights are low
Looking out for
a place to go
Umm where they play
the right music
Getting
in the swing
You come to
look for a king
Anybody could be
that guy
Night is young and
the music's high
With a bit of
rock music
Everything
is fine
You're in the mood
for a dance
And when you get
the chance
You are
the dancing queen
Young and sweet

Dancing queen

The tambourine

Having the time of

Leave them burning

Looking out for

Young and sweet

The tambourine

Oh my heart
won't believe
that you have left me
I keep telling myself
that it's true
I can get over anything

but I can't get myself
over you
Don't forget to
remember me
and the love that
used to be
I still remember you
I love you in my heart
lies a memory
To tell the stars above
Don't forget to
remember me my love
On my wall lies
a photograph
of you girl- -
though I try to forget
you somehow
You're the mirror
of my soul so take me
out of my whole let me
try to go on living
right now
Don't forget to
remember me
and the love that
used to be
I still remember you
I love you in my heart
lies a memory
To tell the stars above
Don't forget to
remember me
my love.

This ain't a song
For the broken-hearted
No silent prayer
For the faith-departed
I ain't gonna be
just a face
In the crowd
you're gonna hear
My voice when
I shout it out loud
It's my life
it's now or never
I ain't gonna live
forever
I just wanna live
while I'm alive
(It's my life)
my heart is
Like an open highway
like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just wanna live
While I'm alive
it's my life
This is for the ones
Who stood their ground
For Tommy and Gina
who never backed down
Tomorrow's
getting harder
Make no mistake
luck ain't even lucky
Got to make
your own breaks
It's my life
and it's now or never
I ain't gonna live
forever
I just wanna live
while I'm alive
(It's my life)
my heart is
Like an open highway
like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just wanna live
While I'm alive
it's my life-

Better stand tall
when they're calling
You out don't bend
don't break baby
Don't back down
it's my life and
It's now or never
'cause I ain't gonna
Live forever
I just wanna live
While I'm alive
(it's my life)
My heart is
like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just wanna live
while I'm alive
(It's my life)
and it's now or never
I ain't gonna live
forever
I just wanna live
while I'm alive
(It's my life)
my heart is
Like an open highway
like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just wanna live
While I'm alive
it's my life-

One summer night
the stars were
Shining bright
one summer dream
Made with fancy whims
that summer night
My whole world
tumbled down
I could have died
if not for you
Each night
I pray for you
My heart would
cry for you
The sun won't
shine again
Since you have gone
each time
I think of you
my heart would
Beat for you
you are
The one
for me
Set me free like the
sparrows up the tree
Give a sign
so I would
Ease my mind
just say a word
And I'll come
running wild
Give me a chance
to live again
Each night
I pray for you
My heart would
cry for you
The sun won't
shine again
Since you have gone
each time
I think of you
my heart would
Beat for you
you are
The one
for me
One summer night
the stars were
Shining bright
one summer dream
Made with
fancy whims
That summer night
my whole world
Tumbled down
I could have died
If not for you
each night
I pray for you
my heart would
Cry for you
the sun won't
Shine
again
Since you
have gone
Each time
I think of you
My heart would
beat for you
You are the one
for me

I have often
told you stories
About the way
I lived the life
Of a drifter
waiting for the day
When I'd take
your hand
And sing you songs
then maybe
You would say
come lay with me
Love me
and I would
Surely stay
but I feel
I'm growing older
and the songs that
I have sung
echo in the distance
Like the sound
of a windmill
goin' 'round
I guess I'll always be
A soldier
of fortune

Many times
I've been a traveller
I looked for
something new
In days of old
when nights were cold
I wandered without you
but those days
I thougt my eyes
had seen you
Standing near
though
Blindness is confusing
it shows that
You're not here
now I feel
I'm growing older
and the songs that
I have sung
echo in the distance
Like the sound
of a windmill
Goin' 'round
I guess I'll always be
A soldier of fortune
I can hear the sound
Of a windmill
goin' 'round
I guess I'll always be
a soldier of fortune
I guess I'll always be
a soldier of fortune
