That's When He Told Her
streetlight
yellow in the room
lifting out our futures from the gloom
same song
in the street below
football song that everybody knows
(chorus)thats when he told her
that he loved her
and hed love her all his life - 2x
bright lights
five years down the lane
point to where the just born babies cry
he knows now
they are joined for good
life could never break them
nothing could
(chorus 2x)
30 years pass like a sonic boom
sunlight floods into a different room
they both know theyre saying goodbye too soon
but theres no more time
(chorus)
thats when he told her
that he meant it when he
said he loved her
and hed love her all his life

Yellow Roses
Hello you said the day we met
Handing me a yellow rose
You asked me out
And to your surprise
And to mine I said Id go
I thought it so romantic
And I found you sweet and bold
Though wed only met
I still said yes
To a single yellow rose
And for years to come
You were the one
To sleep with me at night
To laugh and talk
And share my thoughts
And hold me when Id cry
And on every occasion
And for no good reason to
A big bouquet or a single yellow rose
Was sent from you
Chorus:
Yellow roses
The color of sunshine
You loved me at one time
Why did you have to go
Yellow roses
Are you sending your new love
My bright yellow rose buds
I still love you so
I never see a yellow rose
That I didnt think of you
Its still my favorite flower
Though the yellows turned to blue
The day you left my teardrops fell
Upon your farewell not
You said goodbye like you said hello
With a single yellow rose
Chorus:
Yellow roses
The color of sunshine
You loved me at one time
Why did you have to go
Yellow roses
Are you sending your new love
My bright yellow rose buds
Oh I still love you so
Yellow roses
The color of sunshine
You loved me at one time
Why did you have to go
Sweet yellow roses
Are you sending your new love
My bright yellow rose buds
I still love you so

Doin Just Fine (Soul Solution Radio Mix)
There was a time when I thought life was over and out
When you went away from me
My dying heart made it hard to breathe
Would sit in my room
Because I didn't want to have to go out
And see you walking by
One look and I'd break right down and cry
Now you say that you've made a big mistake
Never meant to take your love away
But you can save your tired apologies
'Cause it may seem hard to believe
But
[Chorus: ]
I'm doin' just fine
Getting along very well
Without you in my life
I don't need you in my life
I'm doin' just fine
Time made me stronger
You're no longer on my mind
You were my earth
My number one priority
I gave me love to only you
Anything you'd ask of me
I would do
But somewhere down the road
You felt a change in the weather
And told me that you had to journey on
A kiss in the wind and your love was gone
Now you say you never meant to play your games
Girl, don't you know it's far too late
Because you let our love just fall apart
You no longer have a heart
[Chorus ]
When you said goodbye
I felt so all alone
There were times at night I couldn't sleep
My heart was much to weak to make it on my own
Baby after all the misery
And pain you put me through
So unfair to me girl
You're no longer my world
And I ain't missin' you at all

How I took you by the hand?
Do you remember
In the sunny summerland?

And they sparkle in the night
And the kind of love that you give me
Seems to light up all my life
Sax break - van?
And then, and then, and then I told you

A little closer to my heart
Do you remember
All the stars were shining bright?
Do you remember
It was on a magic night?

Loved By You
Every time is like the first time tenderly
Loving you is like breathing spring
Seasons change but your heart beats constantly
Count my blessing every day as you love me
As the sunset disappears across the northern sky
You look for forever in my eyes
All I can say, long as I have a voice
Ill thank God above that I was your first choice
Chorus:
If I should die before I wake
Ill go into the night whispering your name
If lying in your arms is the last thing that I do
At least I know that Ill be loved by you
In about a hundred years from now
When all of my love letters are found
And someone reads these words Ive written only meant for you
Theyll know how forever came true...
Repeat chorus
Let the years roll on by
These are the best times of my life
Ill just smile when my days are through
Knowing that Ive been loved by you
At least I know that Ive been loved by you

Round & Round (Blacksmith Remix)
Chorus)
Round and round I go
Where I stop
You will never know
Round and round I go
Where I stop
You will never know
(Vs.1)
I just don't understand
What is your master plan
What did you have me do
Confusion in my mind
Been hurt a thousand times
Now I know you're not true
(That's why I can't be with you)
You don't know what it meant to me
Just to make you happy
All this time I've waited
Now our love has faded
Please tell me why it's gone
So my life can go on
(Chorus)
(Vs.2)
I told you once before
I'm walkin out the door
I'm leaving you behind
Thinking bout you all the time
Makes me so sad and blue
Now what are we gonna do
(That's why I can't be with you)
You don't know what you did to me
When you told me you loved me
Now you're actin' shady
Now I'm goin crazy
Please stop holdin back from me
Cause I got to keep from goin round

Oh, ohhhh
Oh, ohhhh

If I Told You Today [song ]
[ in tune with the old song
'Have I Told You Lately That I love You' ]
If I told you today
That I still need you by
Would you still have to
Know all the reasons why
[chorus]
[ If I told you today
That I still love you
Would you turn your back
And just say goodbye]
If I told you today
You'll always be in my heart
Would you still insist
That we must part
If I told you today
My heart is breaking in two
Would you turn around
And say you love me too
[repeat chorus]
[ If I told you today
That I still love you
Would you turn your back
And just say goodbye]
If I told you today
That you're special to me
Could you open your heart
So you could really see
If I told you today
That you're my angel girl
And each kiss from you
sends my heart in a whirl
[repeat chorus]
[ If I told you today
That I still love you
Would you turn your back
And just say goodbye]

Its My Job
By: mac mcanally
1970
For mac who reminds me of me seven years ago
In the middle of late last night I was sittin on a curb
I didnt know what about, but I was feelin quite disturbed
A street sweeper came whistlin by, he was bouncin every step
It seemed strange how good he felt, so I asked him while he swept
Chorus:
He said, its my job to be cleaning up this mess
And thats enough reason to go for me
Its my job to be better than the rest
And that makes a day for me.
I got an uncle who owns a bank, hes a self-made millionaire
He never had anyone to love, never had no one to care
He always seemed kinda sad to me and I asked him why that was
And he told me its because in my contract theres this clause
Chorus:
That says, its my job to be worried half to death
And thats the thing people respect in me
Its my job but without it Id be less
Than what I expect from me.
Now Ive been lazy most all my life writin songs and sleepin late
And any manual labor Ive done was purely by mistake
If street sweepers can smile then Ive got no right to feel upset
But sometimes I still forget
til the lights go on and the stage is set
And the song hits home and you feel that sweat
Chorus:
Its my job to be different than the rest
And thats enough reason to go for me
Its my job to be better than the rest
And thats a rough break for me
Chorus:
Its my job to be cleaning up this mess
And thats enough reason to go for me
Its my job to be better than the rest
And that makes the day for me

No Thang On Me (feat. Bootsy Collins)
ya know ive been around the world and ai ai ai
ive met a lot of people and what ive come to find out is
that people are the same, they all share the same fears
share the same tears, and i over the years
so, im just gon be thankful to get what i got
and hold onto what i have can you dig that?
and what i do, i do for the benefit of me and my kids

Chorus
im so glad ive got my own
so glad that i can see
my life's a natural high
and they cant put no thang on me
(x2)
its something kind of funny
how the man take your money
be sure as he can be
its such a way you'll never see
its a terrible thing inside
when your natural high has died
what we cant turn to dope
and put all aside the hope
Chorus (x2)
twinkling tinkling (?brings, blings, binds?)
we do all sorts of things
while you're in a modest place
your conciouses only peace
yeah i had to make peace with myself you know what i mean
i been getting high for the last what 15 20 years
so i told myself i wanna know what it feels like to be high fo life
and i mean man i tell ya it feels real good
you know coaching them lil kids out there on the football field
doing my thug thizzle still but you know
just being high for life is a different feeling
you should try it my brother im telling you its a great feeling
can you dig that
i can dig it
more and more you grieve
(sing that song nephew)
until you grow another need
you claim this fantasy
you'll have no reality
Chorus (x2)

Special Girl
Into each life a little sunlight wants to shine
Let me tell you fortune life that once was mine
Chorus:
She was a special girl and she meant the world to me and I gave her everything
When I found her, Id been looking everywhere
And when I lost her, I was lost beyond despair

Dreams are hard to touch, could it be I love her too much

Bottom line is she was fine in every way
And its not with hesitation that I say

You Were Loved
We all want to make a place in this world
We all want our voices to be heard
Everyone wants a chance to be someone
We all have dreams we need to dream
Sweeter than any star you can reach
Is when you reach and find you found someone
Youll hold this worlds most priceless thing
The greatest gift this life can bring
Is when you look back and know
You were loved
Chorus:
You were loved by someone
Touched by someone
Held by someone
Meant something to someone
Loved somebody
Touched somebodys heart along the way
You can look back and say
You were loved
Yes you were, now
You can have diamonds in the hands
Have all the riches in the land
But without love you dont really have a thing
When somebody cares that your alive
When somebody trusts you with their life
Thats when you know
That you have all you need
You hold this worlds most priceless gift
The finest treasure that there is
You can look back and know
You were loved
Chorus
So many roads that you can take
Whatever way you go
Dont take that road alone
Its better you should know...

So remember to tell that special one
You are loved...are loved...you are loved
