She Moved Through The Fair

My young love said to me,
My mother wont mind
And my father wont slight you
For your lack of kind.
She stepped away from me
And this she did say,
It will not be long love
Till our wedding day.
She stepped away from me
And she moved through the fair
And fondly I watched her move here
And move there.
And she went her way homeward
With one star awake,
As the swan in the evening
Moved over the lake.
Last night she came to me,
My young love came in.
So softly she entered,
That her feet made no din.
And she came close beside me
And this she did say,
It will not be long love
Till our wedding day.

She Moved Through The Fair

My young love said to me,
My mother wont mind,
And my father wont slight you,
For your lack of kind.
Then, she stepped away from me,
And this she did say:
It will not be long love,
til our wedding day.
She stepped away from me,
And she moved through the fair,
And fondly I watched her,
Move here and move there.
Then she made her way homeward,
With one star awake,
As the swan in the evening,
Moves over the lake.
I dreamt it last night,
That my dead love came in,
So softly she moved,
That her feet made no din.
Then she came close beside me,
And this she did say:
It will not be long love,
til our wedding day.

She Moved Through the Faire

My young love said to me: My mother won't mind,
And my father won't slight you for your lack of kind.
She put her arms 'round me; these words she did say:
It will not be long, love, 'til our wedding day!
Then she stepped away from me, and she moved thru the Faire,
And so fondly I watched her move here and move there;
At last she turned homeward, with one star awake,
As the Swan in the evening moves over the lake.
Last night she came to me, my dead love came in,
And so soft did she move that her feet made no din;
She put her arms 'round me; these words she did say:
It will not be long, love, 'til our wedding day!

She Glided Through The Doors

My young love said to me as she glided through the doors
'My mother would mine and my father showed a lack of care for your kind'
Then she stepped away from me and then she did say
'it will not be long love until the wedding day'
She stepped away from me and she glided through the doors
And finally i watched her with the need to massage away her sores
And she made her way forward and stopped to find her reflection floating on a nearby lake
As time ran away from her mind - i stood in front of the church and wondered was she purposely making me wait

Last night she came to me
She glided through my door
So lightly she came with the moonlit glow in her eyes
Then she laid her hand on me and then she did say
'love, we can't hold off our wedding day'

Still i wait for my swan at the head of the aille
As the silence grew tense i peeled away my smile
Then when it was past four- the rushing wind came speeding in
And finally where my bride stood - she glided towards me

I went to fetch water from the lake

I went to fetch water from the lake, but my love wont let me, O mother!
Kneading my firm breasts, he lusted for the nectar of my lips, O mother!
I went to fetch water from the lake, but my love wont let me, O mother!

'How did you hurt your lips' my mother-in-law suspiciously asks.
'It was my girl friend's nail as she was helping me with the pots'
I went to fetch water from the lake, but my love wont let me, O mother!

I had gone in a great hurry but my love held me back,
It is excellent to attain Narsaiyya's Lord,
For he made me like himself, O mother!
I went to fetch water from the lake, but my love wont let me, O mother!

O Jenny Dear, I’ve Courted Lang

O Jenny dear, I've courted lang,
I've telt my tale and sung my sang,
And yet I fear I'm i' the wrang,
For ye'll na mak a wedding o't.
In winter when the frost and snaw
Wi' bitter blast around wad blaw,
I'd o'er the moor, nor mind it a',
In hopes ye'd mak a wedding o't.
And gin ye smil'd or kindly spak,
It smooth'd the road, and help'd me back;
I thought nae answer I wad tak,
For we wad mak a wedding o't.

Now, when I gae to kirk or fair,
The laddies scoff, the lassies jeer;--
``Is this poor Jock?--the good be here!
For sure he's made a wedding o't.
What is become of a' his fun?
Alak! his joyfu' days are done;
Or else he's pawn'd his dancing shoon,
Sin he has made a wedding o't.
Sure marriage is a dreadfu' thing!
Ye mind 'tis only i' the spring
That little birdies chirp and sing,
Or, till they've made a wedding o't.''

Then up spak honest Johnny Bell:
``My bairns, I ance was young mysel;
I've mony a blithsome tale to tell
Sin first I made a wedding o't;
My Tibby was a winsome bride,--
Nay, yet she is her auld man's pride!
Nae faut i' her I ever spyed,
Sin first we made a wedding o't:
Ilk day we live we fonder grow,
Though buckl'd fifty years ago;
Here's comfort for ye, young ones a',
Then haste ye, mak a wedding o't.

The Young Ones

The young ones,
Darling were the young ones,
And young ones shouldnt be afraid.
To live, love
While the flame is strong,
For we wont be the young ones very long.
Tomorrow,
Why wait till tomorrow,
Tomorrow sometimes never comes.
Love, me,
Theres a song to be sung
And the best time is to sing while were young.
Once in every lifetime
Comes a love like this.
I need you and you need me.
Oh my darling cant you see.
Young dreams
Should be dreamed together,
Young hearts shouldnt be afraid.
And some day when the years have flown
Darling, this will teach the young ones of our own.
The young ones
Darling, were the young ones
The young ones
Darling, were the young ones.

Medley Piaf

I used to know a little square
So long ago, when I was small
All summer long it had a fair
Wonderful fair with swings and all
I used to love my little fair
And at the close of everyday
I could be found, dancing around
A merry-go-round that used to play:
ah, mon amour
A toi toujours
Dans tes grands yeux
Rien que nous deux
All summer long my little fair
Made everyday like a holiday
Night after night it used to play
People came there from so far away
And everyone sang that little tune
All around the town you heard it played
Even pepi from napoli
He sang to marie this serenade
[qui inizia hymne a lamour]
If the sun should tumble from the sky
If the sea should suddenly run dry
If you love me, really love me
Let it happen darling, I wont care
Shall I catch a shooting star
Shall I bring it where you are
If you want me to, I will. (I hope I get this right)
You can set me any task
Ill do anything you ask
If youll only love me still
When at last, our life on earth is through
I will spend eternity with you
If you love me, really love me
Let it happen darling, I wont care

Dont Move Away

(avon/spiro)
Ummmm..i wanted you,but I wouldnt let myself admit it
You know its true and my love is here
So come and get it,too
I used to say I could take you love or I could leave it
But here today Im confessing that Im nothing without you
Dont move away when you know I really want you
Let me show you that I want you
Let me love you like I want to
Let me try again
I wont say goodbye again
If you try again
You will never cry again
No,i used to feel it would be so easy to forget you
Your love is real and I know how many times Ive let you down
Baby,
Dont move away when you know I really want you
Let me show you that I want you
Let me love you like I want to
Let me try again,i wont say goodbye again
If you try again,you will never cry again
Dont move away when you know I really want you
Let me show you that I want you
Let me love you like I want to
Let me love you like I want to
Let me love you like I want to
Dont move away
Dont move away
I wont go,no no
Please stay
Dont move away
Dont move away
I got you baby

I Shall Not Be Moved

You will take my breath away,
Gild my heart with your love-
I shall not be moved.

My eyes will gloat at your sashay,
My lips will droll at your pulchritude-
I shall not be moved.

You will come with religions of faiths,
A heap of mountains you have moved-
Still I shall not be moved.

You will give me strongest of philtres,
Your touch will erect my one weakness-
But I shall not be moved.

You will light my darkest paths,
Move me here to there-
Yet I shall not be moved.

You will sing our song,
Your love for me will exceed eternity,
Even then, I shall not be moved.

You will live for me,
Die for me- For the last time-
I shall not be moved.

The Book Of Love

The book of love is long and boring
No one can lift the damn thing
It's full of charts and facts and figures and instructions for dancing
But I
I love it when you read to me
And you
You can read me anything
The book of love has music in it
In fact that's where music comes from
Some of it is just transcendental
Some of it is just really dumb
But I
I love it when you sing to me
And you
You can sing me anything
The book of love is long and boring
And written very long ago
It's full of flowers and heart-shaped boxes
And things we're all too young to know
But I
I love it when you give me things
And you
You ought to give me wedding rings
And I
I love it when you give me things
And you
You ought to give me wedding rings
And I
I love it when you give me things
And you
You ought to give me wedding rings
You ought to give me wedding rings

It Wont Be Long

(words & music by wayne - weisman)
The shooting stars are coming out of your eyes
They point the way, the way to paradise
I got a funny feeling, I cant be wrong
It wont be long until the sparks will fly
It wont be long
I hear a buzz, buzz around in my brain
But what it does, is bound to drive me insane
At a time like this I must be strong
It wont be long till the sky falls down
It wont be long
Love has taught me plenty, Im still learning more
Anything worth having is worth the waiting for
Here I go, Im on a one way trip
Look out below because Im about to flip
I tell you when these lips get to that kiss
It wont be long until were out of this world
It wont be long
Love has taught me plenty, Im still learning more
Anything worth having is worth the waiting for
Here I go, Im on a one way trip
Look out below because Im about to flip
I tell you when these lips get to that kiss
It wont be long, it wont be long until were out of this world
It wont be long
It wont be long, it wont be long until were out of this world
It wont be long

Back In My Arms Again

They always said that hindsights twenty-twenty
And when it comes to mistakes in love girl Ive got plenty
But the one that sticks out the most in my mind
Is the night I left you standing on the front porch drying
Living for the day I could make it all up to you
Till youre back in my arms, back in my arms again
Till youre back in my arms Ill be old lonesome till then
And honey I wont eat and I wont even sleep
Ill be walking these toes off of both of my feet
Till youre back in my arms, back in my arms again
Well Im getting to know this old town like never before
Walking every street knocking on every door
Girl wherever you are I want you back
I love you baby and Im sure about that
What ever it takes theres nothing that I wont do
Till youre back in my arms, back in my arms again
Till youre back in my arms Ill be old lonesome till then
And honey I wont eat and I wont even sleep
Ill be walking these toes off of both of my feet
Till youlre back in my arms, back in my arms again
I must have been a fool I confess
To ever let you go but I aint gonna rest
Till youre back in my arms, back in my arms again
Till youre back in my arms Ill be old lonesome till then
And honey I wont eat and I wont even sleep
Ill be walking these toes off of both of my feet
Till youre back in my arms, back in my arms again

Till The Sun Comes Up Again

Written by gerry beckley, 1972
Found on homecoming.
Think Ill write a different song
Got a feeling it might take a long time
Singin it over again, I cant recall just how it used to be
Voices across the sea
Mm, mm, mm.
Will she come to me, to keep me company
Wont know till the sun comes up again
Gotta take the good with the bad
Sometimes I wish I never had my say
Always goes that way, or is it just the way I feel today?
Voices across the way
Mm, mm, mm.
Will she come to me, to keep me company
Wont know till the sun comes up again
Wont know till the sun comes up again
Wont know till the sun comes up again
Wont know till the sun comes up again
Wont know till the sun comes up again
Wont know till the sun comes up again

You & I

All the man I am
You are the reason for me
You help me understand
Ill be your shelter from the rain that never ends
Girl , youve always got a friend in me
All the love we had
I shouldve know our love was older than the past
Throwing my life away on songs I never heard
Just the speaking of a single word
I made you die inside but you loved me
And dont believe the world
No, the world cant give us paradise
When you make your love to me
Till I just could not see the light
As long as I got you
As long as you got me
As long as we got you and i
I wont let you down
No better love will be there when you turn around
Ill be living for you till the ocean turns to sand
There will never be any man
Could love you just the way that I love you
So dont believe the world
No, the world cant give up paradise
In the eye within the storm
Just when I could not make it through the night
As long as I got you
As long as you got me
As long as we got you and i

Till Love Comes Again

(bog regan,ed hill)
White light shadows gather around my door
They find me dreaming all alone once more
Memories come around to haunt my sleepless sounds
Nows the time I must be strong
I believe it wont be long
Chorus:
Till love comes again
To end these lonely nights
Till love comes again
To drive these tears I cry
Its darkest just before the dawn
And Ill just keep holding on
Till then
Till love comes again
Somewhere someone feels the way I do
And like me they dream of the love thats true
One day Ill look into his eyes I know the moments right
Until then Ill just wait
No matter how long it might take
Repeat chorus
Oh until then
Till love comes again

The Marriage of Dawn

Dawn dressed in darkness
Welcomes the lights of wedding
The day two hearts joining together
Two souls joining together
Bound by love.

A wedding is the entrance to a marriage
Stepping from a fairy tale carriage
Into quite ordinary air.
The realization comes,
Life is a beautiful dance
Requiring intense coordination.

The hearts are beating
Slightly faster than others,
Nervousness seeps through
For both the groom and the bride
Awaiting the great moment
Two selves, one life; two notes, one harmony
Loving not just one, but both of you.

Friends and family
Joined together
In the wedding bliss
To wish them love
To wish them happiness
To wish them great future together.

We wish them to find
Joy is in the simple things
Touching, embracing,
Like coming home knowing,
When your eyes meet and no words need to be said.

They already knew
Long before the sound of wedding bells
Love for each other till the very end
Still, we wish them love for each other till the very end.

So, let us listen to the sound of wedding bells
And join in the rhythm of joy
In the celebration of love.

Greedy Love

(l. stansfield/i. devaney/a. morris)
Cant get my sleep till I get what I want
I wont be happy till Im using it up
I cant decide if its right or its wrong
One thing for sure, I know Ive got to have it
Chorus:
Oh, this greedy love, oh, this greedy love
This love is in my blood, this love is in my bones
This love is never ending, this love is never saying no
Oh, this greedy love
I try to fight the hunger I have
Try not to think about the feeling I crave
I close my eyes and its there in my head
I wont let go till I know Im going to have it
Chorus
This love it makes me restless
This love is everything
This love wont wait for morning
This love is driving me insane
This love is in my blood
This love is in my bones
This love is never ending
This love is never saying no
Chorus
I cant decide if its right or its wrong
One things for sure, I know Ive go to...
This love is in my blood
This love is in my bones
This love is never ending
This love is never saying no
Chorus and fade

Another World

I was so low
People almost made me give up trying
Always said no
The I turned around saw someone smiling
I stepped into
I stepped into
Into another
Into another
I stepped into
I stepped into
Into another
Into another world
There was no light
I was going to all the wrong places
Like day from night
Suddenly I saw a thousand faces
I stepped into
I stepped into
Into another
Into another
I stepped into
I stepped into
Into another
Into another world

All The Love

The first time I died
Was in the arms of good friends of mine.
They kiss me with tears.
They hadnt been near me for years.
Say, why do it now
When I wont be around, Im going out?
We needed you
To love us too.
We wait for your move.
Only tragedy allows the release
Of love and grief never normally seen.
I didnt want to let them see me weep,
I didnt want to let them see me weak,
But I know I have shown
That I stand at the gates alone.
I needed you
To love me too.
I wait for your move.
All the love, all the love,
All the love we should have given.
All the love, all the love,
All the love you could have given.
All the love, all the love,
All the love...
(run for the hills...)*
The next time I dedicate
My lifes work to the friends I make,
I give them what they want to hear.
They think Im up to something weird
And up rears the head of fear in me.
So now when they ring
I get my machine to let them in.
I needed you
To love me too.
I wait for your move.
All the love, all the love,
All the love you should have given.
All the love, all the love,
All the love we could have given.
All the love, all the love,
All the love...
Take care, tootle-ooh.
Bye-bye.
Bye, so long now. [uncertain]
Bye!
Later.
Bye-ee!
Cheerio.
Bye!
Bye-bye.
Bye.
Stay healthy. [uncertain]
Bye-ee!
Bye.
Cheers.
See ya, luv.
Bye!
Good bye.
Ill see ya, luv.
Good night.
We needed you
To love us too.
We wait for your move.

Sounds of wedding bells

They waited sixteen long years
For the sounds of wedding bells
The wedding bells ring, dingdong, dingdong
The wedding bells sing, dingdong, dingdong
For all to hear strikingly clear
Hold your silence and wish them well

It is the sounds of wedding bells
This aged love birds have been waiting for
Once unofficial honeys
From this point declared official
In this matrimonial ceremony

I wish them well
Their braveness is my acknowledgement
Their enduring fight is my guiding light
Their victory will go down in history
Together they compliment and compliment
Each other like a perfect pair of fitting shoes

One way or another they already knew
Long before the sound of wedding bells
They would love each other till the very end

So listen to the sound of wedding bells
As they sing dingdong, dingdong
Perhaps for you it wouldn’t be long!
