1.We Just Couldn't Say Goodbye
We thought that love was over and we were really through
I said I didn't love him that we begin a new
And you can all believe we sure intended too
But we just couldn't say goodbye
The chair and then the sofa they broke right down and cried
The curtains started waving for me to come inside
I tell you confidentially the tears were hard to hide
And we just couldn't say goodbye
The clock was striking 12 'o clock
It smiled on us below
We folded hands it seemed to say
We're gonna miss you if you go
So I went back and kissed him
And when we looked around
The room was singing love songs
And dancing up and down
And now we're both so happy
Because at last we found
That we just couldn't say goodbye
People in love are funny
Mighty hard to explain
One minute they quarrel
Then they're back together again
Take my case for instance
We had a little fuss
Now listen ladies and gentlemen
Here's what happened to us
The clock was striking 12 'o clock
It smiled on us below
We folded hands it seemed to say
We're gonna miss you if you go
So I went back and kissed him
And when we looked around
The room was singing love songs
And dancing up and down
And now we're both so happy
Because at last we found
That we just couldn't say goodbye
2.There Ain't No Sweet Man That's Worth The Salt Of My Tears
Shakin' like a leaf on a tree,
That's coming loose from the stem
Shakin' like a leaf on a tree,
Because I'm coming loose from my man!
I'm like a weeping willow,
Weeping on my pillow,
For years and years,
There ain't no sweet man that's worth the salt of my tears
Down and down he dragged me,
Like a fiend he nagged me,
For years and years,
There ain't no sweet man that's worth the salt of my tears
Although I may be blue,
Still, I'm true,
I must tell him good-bye!
Rather than have that man,
Gonna lay me down and just die!
So broken-hearted sisters,
Aggravating misters, lend me your ears!
There ain't no sweet man that's worth the salt of my tears
Although I may be blue,
Still, I'm true,
I must tell him good-bye!
Rather than have that man,
Gonna lay me down and just die!
So broken-hearted sisters,
Aggravating misters, lend me your ears!
There ain't no sweet man that's worth the salt of my tears
3.Just Like A Butterfly That's Caught In The Rain
Here I am, lonely,
Tired and lonely,
Crying for home in vain,
Just like a butterfly that's caught in the rain!
Longing for flowers,
Dreaming of hours
Back in the sun-kissed lane,
Just like a butterfly that's caught in the rain!
I know that all of the world is cheery
By that old cottage door,
Why are my wings so weary?
I can't fly any more!
Here I am praying,
Brokenly saying,
'Give me the sun again!',
Just like a butterfly that's caught in the rain!
When it's raining from the sky,
And I see a butterfly,
I can almost hear him sighing
'Cause he has to stop his flying.
I can easily sympathise
With those helpless butterflies!
Here I am, lonely,
Tired and lonely,
Crying for home in vain,
Just like a butterfly that's caught in the rain!
Longing for flowers,
Dreaming of hours
Back in the sun-kissed lane,
Just like a butterfly that's caught in the rain!
I know all of the world is cheery
By that old cottage door,
Why are my wings so weary?
I can't fly any more!
Here I am praying,
Brokenly saying,
'Give me the sun again!',
Just like a butterfly that's caught in the rain!
Give me the sun again!
Caught in the rain!
4.You Know - I Know Ev'rything's Made For Love
Though you're past your baby days
Still you've got those baby ways
You're as bashful everytime that I'm with you
Though you're fond of me you say
Still you peep me far away
Oh why can't we love
Just like other sweethearts do
What do we got lips for
What do we got arms for
Why do we have stars above
Oh you know I know everything's made for love
What do we got eyes for what
What we sigh sigh for
Why do we say lovey dove
Oh you know I know everything's made for love
What is the dark for
What is the park for
Why are shady lanes
Why is a cozy corner so rosey
Everytime it rains
What have I got you for
What do you got me for
What do we both thinking off
Oh you know I know everything's made for love
And why do we have preachers
Why do we have teachers
Why do we have weddings too
Oh you know I know everything's made for love
Now where's a girl banned for
And who's the best man for
And why do we all say I do
When you know I know everything's made for love
What do we sing for, what do we sing for
And when cupid calls
Why do we go and spend all of our dough
Just to see Niagara Falls
Why we keep crying
Why we keep sighing
Why do we say dovey dove
Oh you know I know everything's made for love
What is the dark for
What is the park for
Why are shady lanes
Why is a cozy corner so rosey
Everytime the rain starts falling
What have I got you for
What have you got me for
What do we both thinking off
Oh you know I know everything's made for love
Oh you know I know everything's made for love
Oh you know I know everything's made for love
5.Glad Rag Doll
Little painted lady with your lovely clothes
Where are you bound for may I ask?
What your diamonds cost you everybody knows
All the world can see behind your mask
Old doll and in black rags
Tomorrow may turn to sad rags
They call her glad rag doll
Admired ,desired by lovers who soon grow tired
Poor little glad rag doll
You just a pretty toy they like to play with
You're not the kind they choose to grow old and grey with
Don't make this the end here
It's never too late to mend you
Poor little glad rag doll
You just a pretty toy they like to play with
You're not the kind they choose to grow old and grey with
Don't make this the end here
It's never too late to mend you
Poor little glad rag doll
6.I'm A Little Mixed Up
You said you love me never said goodbye
But I know that just was a lie
I'm a little mixed up ,mixed up about you
I'm just a little mixed up and I don't know what to do
Yeah you said you love me gave me stars above
I've had your baby I had all your love
I'm a little mixed up ,mixed up about you
I'm just a little mixed up and I don't know what to do
We used to walk and talk darling each other sing
But I know now you don't mean a thing
I'm a little mixed up ,mixed up about you
I'm just a little mixed up and I don't know what to do
I'm just a mixed up,mixed up,mixed up fool
Mixed up all 'cause of you
I'm a little mixed up ,mixed up about you
I'm just a little mixed up and I don't know what to do
Now you listen here baby what I have to say
If you don't want me I'll be on my way
I'm a little mixed up ,mixed up about you
I'm just a little mixed up and I don't know what to do
And now you listen here baby won't you come on home
I'm sitting here crying and I'm all alone
I'm a little mixed up ,mixed up about you
I'm just a little mixed up and I don't know what to do
7.Prairie Lullaby
Shadows slowly creeping down the prairie trail
Everything is sleeping - ah, but the nightingale
Moon will soon be climbing in the purple sky
Night winds all a-humming this tender lullaby.
Cares of the day have fled
My little sleepyhead
Stars are in the sky
Time that the prayers were said
My little sleepyhead
To a prairie lullaby
Saddle up your pony
The sandman's here
To guide you down the trail of dreams
Tumble in bed my tired
My little sleepyhead,
To a prairie lullaby
Saddle up your pony
The sandman's here
To guide you down the trail of dreams
Tumble in bed my tired
My little sleepyhead
To a prairie lullaby
8.Here Lies Love
Night winds, cold and melancholy,
Wave a blue finale
For my tragedy.
Life's a misery,
Meant only for me,
While I linger, weary,
'Neath a willow tree.
Right here our romance was started,
Here again we parted
When I set you free.
All my thoughts are jumbled,
Everything is blurred,
All the world has crumbled,
Shattered by word.
The end has come,
My heart is numb,
'Twas like a bolt from the blue above.
I can't believe it but you're gone, darling,
And here lies love.
The sky is dark
And I hear a lark,
He sounds as sad as a mournful dove.
The dew appears like the tears of dawn, darling,
And here lies love.
All my dreams lost beyond recall,
Dreams of Spring blasted by the Fall,
You gave lips, you gave arms,
I gave all!
I ought to cry,
My eyes are dry,
There's only one thing I'm conscious of
I only know that I can't go on, darling,
For here lies love.
All my dreams lost beyond recall,
Dreams of Spring blasted in the Fall,
You gave lips, you gave arms,
I gave all!
I ought to cry,
My eyes are dry,
There's only one thing I'm conscious of
I only know that I can't go on, darling,
For here lies love.
9.I Used To Love You But It's All Over Now
I used to love you but it's all over ,all over now
Yes it's all over town how you put me down
You shouldn't let that kind of talking go round
You've had your chance but now it's all over
I'll get along somehow
The things that you did that I used forgive
You never change long as you life
I used to love you but it's all over ,all over now
You've had your chance but now it's all over
I'll get along somehow
The things that you did that I used forgive
You never change long as you life
I used to love you but it's all over ,all over now
All over now
10.Let It Rain
The angels are crying, they are shedding their tears,
That's why the rain falls from the sky.
The storm will pass away, there'll come a brighter day,
So cheer up now and dry your eyes.
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain.
Let the love in your heart remain.
Though the dark clouds make you blue and we haven't much it's
true,
Still I'm lucky to have someone like you.
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain.
But I know we'll be happy again, we shouldn't worry about the
weather,
Just so long as we're together.
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain.
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain.
Let the love in your heart remain.
Though the dark clouds make you blue and we haven't much it's
true,
Still I'm lucky to have someone like you.
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain.
But I know we'll be happy again, we shouldn't worry about the
weather,
Just so long as we're together.
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain.
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain.
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain.
11.Lonely Avenue
12.Wide River To Cross
There's a sound in the wind, blowing down the road I've been
I can hear it cry while shadows steal the Sun
But I can not look back now, come too far to turn around
And there's still a race ahead, I must run
I'm only half way home
I got a journey on, where I'll find the things I have lost
I've come a long, long road
Still I've got miles to go
I've got a wide, wide river to cross
I have stumbled, I have strayed
You can trace the tracks I've made
All across the memories, why aren't we gone
But I'm just a refugee, won't you sing a prayer for me
Cause sometimes even the strongest soldiers falls
I'm only half way home
I got a journey on, where I'll find the things I have lost
I've come a long, long road
Still I've got miles to go
I've got a wide, wide river to cross
I've got a wide, wide river to cross
I've got a wide, wide river to cross
13.When The Curtain Comes Down
Come on bring up the curtain and let the play being
We are actors and here's our gig
Life's a stage where it takes your best to win
So give it your all folks while you may
Too soon the shadows they call
And someday that curtain will fall
If you are rich , if you are poor
It's all the same I'm sure
When the curtain comes down
Just go along doing your best
And you'll find peace and rest
When the curtain comes down
What if everything goes wrong
What if sorrow comes along
Hide your feelings from the throne
Life can't always be a song
While you are here if you play fair
You will be welcomed up there
When the curtain comes down
While the heroes are applauded
The villain is hist
The heroin's happy
She's fond of and pissed
We smile at the ending
We'll laugh at the clown
And when it's all over
The curtain,the curtain comes down
