I Love You
05:34
|
|||
I love you come the April breeze
I love you echoes the hills
I love you the golden dawn agrees
As once more she sees daffodils
It's spring again
And birds on the wing again
Start to sing again
The old melody
I love you
That's song of songs
And it all belongs to you and me!

Ruby, My Dear
Hold back that tear ….. I know he’s gone
Your love has flown …. You’re all alone
…..Oh, I know you cry …….There’s no reply
Pain lingers on …. It doesn’t go
Cos you’ll say so
One day he came to you …..And made the music play
In his way
You said you’d rather die …..Than say goodbye
But there’ll come a day…Though he’s away
You’ll sing his song ……You’ll carry on
Ruby, My Dear

The Room
05:08
|
|||
The place where I live is a quiet haven
It’s quiet and dark, in a room full of light.
The air is as clear as an open meadow
And that’s where I hear your voice calling out love.
My heart calls your name with a fervent whisper!
Searching the land for the thought of your face
My hands reach the ends of the room in a dither
For you are now gone in this time and this place
For you are now gone and my heart has an aching
You are not here and I cry for you touch
I know I can feel you near me in spirit
But I miss you my darling
I miss you so much

Bonita
08:32
|

What can I say to you, Bonita?
What magic words would capture you?
Like a soft evasive mist
You are, Bonita
You fly away when love is new
What do you ask of me, Bonita?
What part do you want me to play?
Shall I be the clown for you, Bonita?
I will do anything you say
Bonita, don't run away, Bonita
Bonita, don't be afraid to fall in love with me
I love you, I tell you, I love you, I love you Bonita
If you loved me, life would be beautiful
Bonita...

Who can know just what the soul needs
Search and look until your heart bleeds
Deeply hoping
Always aching
For creations as we’re sleeping
Through the world we’re ever dreaming
Never stopping
Always reaching
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Something we may never know…
We’ll be searching til the end.
Open books…you’ll never find the key
That hides the mystery.
Something we may never hear
As we play and we pretend…
Send a song,
But it returns alone…
Just an echo of our own.
Will we ever get to know anymore?
Will we never find the why and what for?
Through the world we’re wandering…
Lights before our eyes.
Seeking in the darkness
Where the deepest secret lies.
Something we may never find…
Though we hope at every bend.
Just a sign,
And time to count upon.
With this, we travel on…………..
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Who can know just what the soul needs?
Search and look until your heart bleeds
Deeply hoping, always aching
For creations as we’re sleeping
Through the world we’re ever dreaming
Never stopping, always reaching.

I Want To Be Happy
06:48
|
|||
I want to be happy
But I won't be happy
Till I make you happy, too
Life's really worth living
When we are mirth-giving
Why can't I give some to you?
When skies are gray
And you say you are blue
I'll send the sun smiling through
I want to be happy
But I won't be happy
Till I make you happy, too

It Never Entered My Mind
10:47
|
|||
Once I laughed when I heard you saying
That I’d be playing solitaire
Uneasy in my easy chair…
It never entered my mind.
Once you told me, I was mistaken
That I’d awaken with the sun
And order OJ for one….
It never entered my mind.
You have what I lack myself
And now I even have to scratch my back myself
Once you warned me that if you scorned me
I’d sing the maiden’s prayer again
And wish that you were there again
To get into my hair again….
It never entered my mind.

Sleep In Peace
03:44
|
|||
Sleep in peace my baby
To a lullabye
While you sleep
The troubles of your day
Are far behind
Got to sleep my darling
Sothe away the frowns
I will bring your fav’rite angel wings;
Soft as a cloud
And you may dream of a starry nite
Where you will fly, far away
Heavenly melodies
Will sing to you this day
Joyful the moment
Eager is your heart
Tender the treasure
Lovingly you part
Saddened is your heart
To waken
Now!

Looking For Bill
06:15
|
|||
When he played, we heard the music singing
And with each song he showed us places rarely seen before
He’s been gone somewhere
Oh life’s not fair
But be glad we had him for a while
He looked inside, deep inside, to get his song
So what’s there to say, turn out the stars
And look up at that night sky
And you may hear a song so pure your heart would jump for joy
And you’ll soon agree that it’s plain to see
That if you’ve got time to kill
It would be well spent looking for Bill...

Song Of My Heart
08:01
|
|||
Song of my heart
Love of my life
My heart is open now
All of the time!
You spoke to me,
And I to you,
I’ve always dreamed this dream
Would now come true!
I came from silent rooms,
Walked through the door.
That’s when I heard silence roar!
Your whisper, all alone,
Called out my name.
Then I was not the same!

Ruby
07:55
|

They say, Ruby, you’re like a dream
Not always what you seem
And though my heart may break when I awake,
Let it be so, I only know, Ruby, it’s you!
They say, Ruby, you’re like a song,
You don’t know right from wrong,
And in your eyes I see Heartache for me
Right from the start, who stole my heart? Ruby, it’s you!
I hear your voice, and I must come to you….
I have no choice, what else can I do?
They say, Ruby, you’re like a flame
Into my life you came,
And though I should beware, still I don’t care
You thrill me so, I only know, Ruby, it’s you.

Small Hotel
05:01
|
|||
There's a small hotel
With a wishing well
I wish that we were there together
There's a bridal suite
One room bright and neat
Complete for us to share together
Looking through the window
You can see a distant steeple
Not a sign of people who wants people?
When the steeple bell says
"Good night, sleep well"
We'll thank the small hotel together

Mary O’Shaunessy
On the road to Thomastown
A way from Kilkinny,
Behind the trees
Mary O’Shaunessy
She’s everybody’s mother
A touch on your shoulder can help you see…
She sits in the chair that her lov’d husband made
Watching the grandchildren play in the shade.
The years have since passed that her sons have all grown
And time is the one true friend she’s ever known
Her in her little chair
Long after night has come
Mary is wondering, just where has the time all gone?
Dreaming of faraway places she’s never seen
Happy with dream
And the life that has always been.
Mary O’Shaunessy
On the road to Thomastown
A way from Kilkinny,
Behind the trees
The light in her eyes tells you life will go on
No matter the sorrows or loss that ou’ve known
A touch of her hand and a soft spoken word
Seems like the sweetest thing you’ve ever heard…
Mary sits down in her chair in her little home
“Time’s like an enemy only when you’re alone.”
Life will move on like a river that flows…
Into it, everyone goes!”

America
05:11
|

Oh beautiful for spacious skies
For amber waves of grain
For purple mountain majesties, above the fruited plain
America, America, god shed his grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea
Oh beautiful for patriot dream
That sees beyond the years
Thine alabaster cities gleam
Undimmed by human tears
America, America, god shed his grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea
