Tell Me Why
(words & music by titus iurner)
Every time I look at someone new
Tell me why I think of you
Then you sometimes ask me by
Youre playing with love
Darling tell me why
You left me all alone
To cry over you
My heart is torn and broken
Theres nothing left to do
In my prayers, Ill mention you
When youre gone I feel so blue
Why cant I have all of you
Oh, somebody, please tell me why

Love Is Here & You Are Gone
Written & composed: brian holland, lamont dozier and eddie holland
Love is here
And oh my darling, now youre gone
Love is here
And oh my darling, now youre gone
You persuaded me to love you
And I did
But instead of tendeness
I found heartache instead
Into your arms I fell
So unaware of the lonelyness
Thar was waiting there
Spoken :
You closed the door to your heart, girl
And you turned the key
Locked your love away from me
Love is here
And oh my darling, now youre gone
You made me love you
And oh my darling, now youre gone
You said loving you
Would make life beautiful
With each passing day
But as soon as love came
Into my heart
You turned and you walked
Just walked away
Spoken :
You stripped me of my dreams
You gave me faith, then you took my hope
Look at me now
Look at me
See what loving has done to me
Look at my face
See how cryin has left its trace
After you made me all your own
Then you left me all alone
You made your words sound so sweet
Knowing that your love I couldnt keep
Spoken :
My heart cries out for your tuch
But baby, youre not there
And the lonely cry fades in the air
Love is here
And oh my darling, now youre gone
Love is here
And oh my darling, now youre gone
You made me love you
Oh oh my darling, now youre gone
Talking bout love, love, love, love,
Ooh ooh my darling, now youre gone

May You Never Be Alone Like Me
Like a bird thats lost in maiden flight
Im alone and oh so blue tonight
Like a piece of driftwood on the sea
May you never be alone like me
I believed the lies you told to me
When you whispered dear,Ill worship thee
Now here I am all alone and blue
All because I love no one but you
I have left my friends,i left my home
When you promised to be mine alone
Now youre gone our love could never be
May you never be alone like me
In the bible,gods own words do say
For every wrong some day youll have to pay
Ill pray the lord to set me free
May you never be alone like me
Goodbye little darling
Goodbye little darling were parting
Parting dont always mean goodbye
Although we have to part,youre always in my heart
Goodbye little darling goodbye
Goodbye little darling,Ill miss you
Miss you like the stars would miss the sky
I hate to see you go,Im going to miss you so
Good bye little darling ,goodbye
Goodbye little darling,i love you
Ill love you till the day I die
Will you dream a dream of me,where ever you may be
Goodbye little darling,goodbye

It Hurts Me
(words & music by byers - daniels)
It hurts me to see him treat you the way he does
It hurts me to see sit and cry
When I know I could be so true
If I had someone like you
It hurts me to see those tears in your eyes
The whole town is talking, theyre callin you a fool
For listening to his same old lies
And when I know I could be so true
If I had someone like you
It hurts me to see the way he makes you cry
You love him too much, youre too blind to see
Hes only playing a game
But hes never loved you
He never will
And darling, dont you know he will never change
Oh, I know he never will set you free
Because hes just that kind of guy
But if you ever tell him youre through
Ill be waiting for you
Waiting to hold you so tight
Waiting to kiss you goodnight
Yes, darling, if I had someone like you

Theres Always Me
(words & music by don robertson)
When the evening shadows fall,
And youre wondring who to call
For a little company
Theres always me
Or if your great romance should end,
And youre lonesome for a friend
Darling, you need never be
Theres always me
I dont seem to mind somehow
Playing second fiddle now
Someday youll want me, dear,
And when that day is here,
Within my arms youll come to know
Other loves may come and go
But my love for you will be eternally
Look around and you will see
Theres always me.

The Last Time
Make it the last time, make it the last time
Make it the last time, oh darling please.
But I dont understand why you always pick the time
When Ive just talked to you with your love on my mind.
To see a distant light, to hear a far-off horn
To leave me one more time, I cant stand no more.
Say no more, well no more,
Well no more, darling, please.
And every time you leave I make the very same vow
That when you come back I aint gonna love you no how.
But when you return you look so fine to me
I cant stand no more, my darling, its just got to be
I said the last time, oh the last time,
Oh the last time, darling, please.
Dont you understand me, dont you understand me ?
Honey, dont you understand my word ?
Well, you told me that you love me, I believed you, darling,
But you lied, you know its true.
Hold on to my heart, Ill believe it till youre leaving
Then Ill cry.
Oh darling, oh darling,
Oh darling, make up your mind
Oh, I cant stand your loving, honey, its tearing me apart,
You done got my soul, but now youre after my heart.
Well, dont hurt me, darling, now you know how to do it so well
I got one consolation, I just wail
It was the last time
It was the last time
It was the last time, darling, please.
When you told me that you love me I believed you, darling,
But you lied, you know its true.
Hold on to my heart, Ill believe it till youre leaving
Then Ill cry.
Well no more, well no more,
Well no more without you, please!
If you wanna love me, honey, please stay home,
If you dont wanna love me, baby, please stay gone.
Dont you understand me, dont you understand me ?
Dont you understand my words ?
Say no more, oh no more,
Well no more, oh, darling, oh!
You told me that you love me I believed you, darling,
But you lied, you know its true.
Hold on to my heart, Ill believe it till youre leaving
Then Ill cry, yeah.

Its A Sin
(words & music by rose - turner)
Its a sin, my darling
How I love you
Because I know
Our love could never be
Its a sin
To keep this memory of you
When silence proves
That youve forgotten me
The dreams I built for us
Has tumbled
Each promise broken
Like my heart
Its a sin, my darling
How I love you
So much in love
And yet so far apart
Im sure youre happy with another
Who shares the love I cannot win
Why pretend that I can live without you
When deep inside I know that its a sin

Darling Lorraine
Words & music by paul simon
The first time I saw her
I couldnt be sure
But the sin of impatience
Said, shes just what youre looking for
So I walked right up to her
And with the part or me that talks
I introduced myself as frank
From new york new york
Shes so hot
Shes so cool
Im not
Im just a fool in love with darling lorraine
All my life Ive been a wanderer
Not really, I mostly lived near my parents home
Anyway lorraine and I got married
And the usual marriage stuff
Then one day she says to me
From out of the blue
Frank, Ive had enough
Romance is a heartbreaker
Im not meant to be a homemaker
And Im tired of being darling lorraine
What - you dont love me anymore?
What - youre walking out the door?
What - you dont like the way I chew?
Hey let me tell you
Youre not the woman that I wed
You say youre depressed but youre not
You just like to stay in bed
I dont need you darling lorraine
Darling lorraine
Lorraine
I long for your love
Financially speaking
I guess Im a washout
Everybodys buy and sell
And sell and buy and
And thats what the whole things all about
If it had not been for lorraine
Id have left here long ago
I should have been a musician
I love the piano
Shes so light
Shes so free
Im tight, well, thats me
But I feel so good
With darling lorraine
On christmas morning frank awakes
To find lorraine has made a stack of pancakes
They watch the television, husband and wife
All afternoon its a wonderful life
What - you dont love me anymore?
What - youre walking out the door?
What - you dont like the way I chew?
Hey let me tell you
Youre not the woman that I wed
Gimme my robe Im going back to bed
Im sick to death of you lorraine
Darling lorraine
Lorraine
Her hands like wood
The doctor was smiling
But the news wasnt good
Darling lorraine
Please dont leave me yet
I know youre in pain
Pain you cant forget
Your breathing is like an echo of our love
Maybe Ill go down to the corner store
And buy us something sweet
Heres an extra blanket honey
To wrap around your feet
All the trees were washed with april rain
And the moon in the meadow
Took darling lorraine

Suspicion
(words & music by doc pomus - mort shuman)
Evrytime you kiss me
Im still not certain that you love me
Evry time you hold me
Im still not certain that you care
Though you keep on saying
You really, really, really love me
Do you speak the same words
To someone else when Im not there
Suspicion torments my heart
Suspicion keeps us apart
Suspicion why torture me
Evrytime you call me
And tell me we should meet tomorrow
I cant help but think that
Youre meeting someone else tonight
Why should our romance just
Keep on causing me such sorrow?
Why am I so doubtful
Whenever youre out of sight?
Darling, if you love me,
I beg you wait a little longer
Wait until I drive all
These foolish fears out of my mind
How I hope and pray that
Our love will keep on growing stronger
Maybe Im suspicious
cause true love is so hard to find

All I Have To Offer You Is Love
(craig wiseman)
If all you wants a good time, baby
Theres a party down the street
If youre trying to fight an old flame
Well, I cant take the heat
If youre looking for a game to play
Well, I wish you luck
cause all I have to offer you is love
If you only want a keeper darling
I dont hold the key
If youre searching for a saviour better
Get down on your knees
If youre looking for the answers, well
Hell I dont know that much
cause all I have to offer you is love
Oh darling, theres a whole lot of things
Ive found that I just cant be, no I cant
But if youre looking for a real love, baby
Ive got all that youll ever need
It might be more than youre after
Or not nearly enough
But all I have to offer you is love
Oh darling, theres a whole lot of things
Ive found I just cant be
But if youre looking for a real love, baby
Ive got all that youll ever need
It might be more than youre after
Or not nearly enough, ahh

Anyone could lose his heart like me
Anyone who has eyes that can see

You're the star i reached for
You're a dream so rare

S. O. S.
(s. andersson / b. ulvaeus / b. andersson)
Where are those happy days, they seem so hard to find.
I tried to reach for you, but you had closed your mind.
Whatever happened to our love?
I wish I understood.
It used to be so nice, it used to be so good.
So when youre near me, darling cant you hear me?
S.o.s.
The love you gave me, nothing else can save me,
S.o.s.
When youre gone,
How can I even try to go on?
When youre gone,
Though I try how can I carry on?
You seem so far away, though you are standing near.
You made me feel alive, but something died I fear.
I really tried to make it out,
I wish I understood.
What happened to our love, it used to be so good?
So when youre near me, darling cant you hear me?

How can I even try to go on?
When youre gone, (when youre gone)
Though I try how can I carry on?

Running From Paradise
Words: d. hall, s. allen
Music : d. hall
I caught you staring at the ceiling
Captured by the mirror up there
Ok ok I see the separation
Makin love down here
While youre watching in the air
If youre looking for love
And you dont find it in my eyes
Then youre running from paradise.
Look before you leap, darling
Dont you know that youre
Running from paradise
I gave you every pose you asked for
Played every game you fantasize
I called your bluff, were running out of breath
Youre hooked on looking -- not on what you find

Fly Me To The Moon
Poets often use many words
To say a simple thing
It takes thoughts and time and rhyme
To make a poem sing
With music and words I've been playing
For you I have written a song
To be sure that you'll know what I'm saying
I'll translate as I go along
Fly me to the moon
And let me play among the stars
Let me see what Spring is like
On Jupiter and Mars
In other words, hold my hand
In other words, darling kiss me
Fill my heart with song
And let me sing for evermore
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you
Fill my heart with song
And let me sing for evermore
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you

Gone With The Sin
I love your skin oh so white
I love your touch cold as ice
And I love every single tear you cry
I just love the way youre losing your life
Ohohohohoh my baby, how beautiful you are
Ohohohohoh my darling, completely torn apart
Youre gone with the sin my baby and beautiful you are
Youre gone with the sin my darling
I adore the despair in your eyes
I worship your lips once red as wine
I crave for your scent sending shivers down my spine
I just love the way youre running out of life

A World Of Our Own
(words & music by giant - baum - kaye )
You kiss me darling, a miracle starts
A magic feeling, comes into our hearts
The spell of love began, when were alone
And were in, a world of our own
You say you want me, and music I hear
Touch me my darling, and clouds disappear
The sky is bright above, and cares have flown
And were in, a world of our own
Holding you close, is heaven
Only I know, what its worth
Knowing youre mine, forever
Is the greatest wonder on earth
Nothing can change it, the magics begun
When were together, our hearts become one
I find a happiness, Ive never known
When were in, a world of our own
When were in...a world of our own...

Once Upon A Time
And you
Yes you speak to me tonight
And you say so, say so
That once upon a time
When love, love was a white dove
And hope, long live hope, could spin the whole world round
Im talking east to west
Im talking lost and found
Get up to the mountain top
Im going to drop unto the ground
Thats once upon a time
You raise me up when I know youre around
But God only knows, what God only knows
You lift me up and you spin me around
God only knows, but God only knows
Thats time
Time looked around herself
Time got excited
Thats when we all got started
Still I hear you, yes still you speak to me tonight
You say then how come out of love, is all this cruelty arising?
Well I said, look, well will you look at you, youre frightened
I see that you smile through weariness
But there is not much else enlightened
Well, thats a question down to time
You life me up when I know youre around
God only knows, God only knows
Still you raise me up when I know youre around
God only knows, God only knows
Thats time

Just Because
Ah, remember this?
Why, I must have been thirteen when this came out!
Or was it fourteen?
Or was it twenty-two?
I could have been twelve actually.
Just because you left and said goodbye,
Do you think that I will sit and cry?
Even if my heart should tell me so,
Darling, I would rather let you go.
Just because I want someone whos kind,
With a heart as good and pure as mine.
But maybe I am asking for too much,
Darling, please dont ever break my heart.
I know you think youre smart,
Just runnin around breaking lovers hearts.
Just because you left and said goodbye, hey!
Do you think that I will sit and cry?
Even if my heart should tell me so,
Darling, I would rather let you go.
