Gotta love her!


You've got a friend

Carole King

When you're down and troubled and you need a helping hand
And nothing, oh, nothing is going right
Close your eyes and think of me and soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night

You just call out my name, and you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring summer or fall, all you got to do is call
And I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah, you've got a friend

If the sky above you should turn dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind should begin to blow
Keep your head together and call my name out loud
And soon I'll be knocking upon your door

Chorus

...and I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey, ain't it good to know that you've got a friend
When people can be so cold, they'll hurt you and desert you
Well, they'll take your soul if you let them, but don't you let 'em

Chorus

...and I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah, you've got a friend
You've got a friend, ain't it good to know
You've got a friend, ain't it good to know
You've got a friend, oh, yeah, yeah, you've got a friend

That's What Love Will Make You Do

Thigpen / Banks / Marion

When I hear your name I start to shake inside
When I see you stroll, I lose my self control

That's what love will do for you
That's what love will make you do
No matter how hard I fight it
Baby, I'm still in love with you

If you're ever in need, there's no limit to what I'll do
I'll work eight days a week baby, and give it all to you

That's what love will do for you
That's what love will make you do
No matter how hard I fight it
Baby, I'm still in love with you

When they speak of beauty, you can stand the test
When they talk about makin' love, baby, you're the best
I don't want to brag about you too much, give others ideas
I'm tryin' hard to express myself, cause
Baby, that's the way I feel

That's what love will do for you
That's what love will make you do
No matter how hard I fight it
Baby, I'm still in love with you

One Kind Favor

Blind Lemon Jefferson

Just one kind favor I ask of you,
One kind favor I ask of you.
One kind favor, I ask of you.
To see that my grave is kept clean.

If you ever hear a church bell toll,
If you ever hear a church bell toll.
If you ever hear, a church bell toll.
You'll know by that I'm dead and gone.

Dig my grave with a silver spade.
Dig my grave with a silver spade.
Dig my grave, with a silver spade.
Mark the place where I would lay.

Just one kind favor I ask of you,
One kind favor I ask of you.
One kind favor, I ask of you.
See that my grave is kept clean.
See that my grave is kept clean.
See my grave is kept clean

Georgia on my Mind

- music by Hoagy Carmichael
- lyrics by Stuart Gorell

Melodies bring memories
That linger in my heart
Make me think of Georgia
Why did we ever part?
Some sweet day when blossoms fall
And all the world's a song
I'll go back to Georgia
'Cause that's where I belong.

Georgia, Georgia, the whole day through
Just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind.
Georgia, Georgia, a song of you
Comes as sweet and clear as moonlight through the pines.

Other arms reach out to me
Other eyes smile tenderly
Still in peaceful dreams I see
The road leads back to you.

Georgia, Georgia, no peace I find
Just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind.

Easy To Love You

Mydland / Barlow

Good, good morning, so good to see you weren't just a dream of mine
Real as a raven, real as thunder, real as the sun shinin'
But still so very undefined
Can't imagine what's behind those sleepy eyes

Little stranger, don't try to hide now
You look so young when you're afraid
There is no danger, but from the devil
He may want you, but I'm in his way

You don't know how easy it is
You don't know how easy it is to love you

And come the moonrise when the dew falls
Don't be the sun that fades away
Don't leave me darkness, she's no lover, she hides the day

I'm the Only One
Please baby can't you see
My mind's a burnin' hell
I got razors a rippin' and tearin' and strippin'
My heart apart as well
Tonight you told me
That you ache for something new
And some other woman is lookin' like something
That might be good for you

[CHORUS]

Go on and hold her till the screaming is gone
Go on believe her when she tells you
nothing's wrong
But I'm the only one
Who'll walk across the fire for you
I'm the only one
Who'll drown in my desire for you
It's only fear that makes you run
The demons that you're hiding from
When all your promises are gone
I'm the only one

Please baby can't you see
I'm trying to explain
I've been here before and I'm locking the door
And I'm not going back again
Her eyes and arms and skin won't make
it go away
You'll wake up tomorrow and wrestle the sorrow
That holds you down today

Darling you gotta let me know
Should I stay or should I go?
If you say that you are mine
I'll be here 'til the end of time
So you got to let me know
Should I stay or should I go?


Always tease tease tease
You're happy when I'm on my knees
One day is fine, next day is black
So if you want me off your back
Well come on and let me know
Should I stay or should I go?
Should I stay or should I go now?
Should I stay or should I go now?
If I go there will be trouble
An' if I stay it will be double
So come on and let me know


This indecision's bugging me
If you don't want me, set me free
Exactly who'm I'm supposed to be
Don't you know which clothes even fit me?
Come on and let me know
Should I cool it or should I blow?


Should I stay or should I go now? ¨Yo me frio o lo sophlo?
If I go there will be trouble - si me voy - va ver peligro
And if I stay it will be double - si me quedo es doble
So you gotta let me know - me tienes que decir
Should I stay or should I go? ¨Yo me frio o lo sophlo?

"Stay"

Oh won't you stay
Just a little bit longer
Please let me hear you say
Say you will
Stay
Well, your daddy don't mind
(Daddy don't mind)
And your mamma don't mind
(Mamma don't mind)
If we have another dance
Yeah Just one more, one more time

Oh won't you stay
Just a little bit longer
Please let me hear you say you will
Say you will

Won't youi place your sweet lips
To mine
Won't you say you love me
All of the time

Stay
Just a little bit longer
Please, please, please, tell me that you're going to
Won't you stay
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon stay
Say you will
Say you will
Say you will
Stay

There's a Southern Accent
where I come from
The younguns call it country,
& the Yankees call it dumb
I got my own way of talking,
but everything is done
With a Southern Accent,
where I come from

Now that drunk tank in Atlanta
is a hotel room for me
Think I might go work Orlando,
if them orange groves don't freeze
I got my own way of working,
but everything gets done
With a Southern Accent,
where I come from...

There's this dream I keep having,
where my Mama comes to me
And kneels down by my bedside,
and says a prayer for me
I got my own way of praying,
and every one's begun
With a Southern Accent,
where I come from...

Meatloaf "Two Out of Three Ain't Bad"........nuff said!


Baby we can talk all night
But that ain't getting us nowhere
I told you everything I possibly can
There's nothing left inside of here
And maybe you can cry all night
But that'll never change the way that I feel
The snow is really piling up outside
I wish you wouldn't make me leave here
I poured it on and I poured it out
I tried to show you just how much I care
I'm tired of words and I'm too hoarse to shout
But you've been cold to me so long
I'm crying icicles instead of tears

And all I can do is keep on telling you

I want you
I need you
But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you
Now don't be sad...
'Cause two out of three ain't bad
Now don't be sad
'Cause two out of three ain't bad

You'll never dig for gold on a sandy beach
You'll never drill for oil on a city street
I know you're looking for a ruby in a mountain of rock
But there ain't no Coupe de Ville hiding at the bottom of a Cracker Jack box

I can't lie
I can't tell you that I'm something I'm not
No matter how I try
I'll never be able
To give you something
Something that I just haven't got

There's only one girl that I will ever love
And that was so many years ago
And though I know I'll never get her out of my heart
She never loved me back
Ooh I know

I remember how she left me on a stormy night (*interjecting here......is there ever any other kind of night?*.....LOL!)
She kissed me and got out of our bed
And though I pleaded and I begged her not to walk out that door
She packed her bags and turned right away
And she kept on telling me
She kept on telling me
She kept on telling me

I want you
I need you
But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you
Now don't be sad...
'Cause two out of three ain't bad
I want you
I need you
But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you
Now don't be sad
'Cause two out of three ain't bad
Don't be sad
'Cause two out of three ain't bad

Baby we can talk all night
But that ain't getting us nowhere




Now...........I ask you...........Could this be the saddest song EVER written? Told you I was feeling melancholy today!

When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world

I wish I was special
You're so fuckin' special
I'm a weirdo
But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo.

What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here.

I don't care if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice
When I'm not around

You're so fuckin' special
I wish I was special

She's running out the door
She's running out.....
She's run run run running out.....

Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You're so fuckin' special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here.
I don't belong here

"In love there are no rules".......Bono

I WOULD DO ANYTHING FOR LOVE


And I would do anything for love
I'd run right into hell and back
I would do anything for love
I'll never lie to you and that's a fact

But I'll never forget the way you feel right now--
Oh no--no way--
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that
I won't do that
Anything for love
I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that
I won't do that

Some days it don't come easy
Some days it don't come hard
Some days it don't come at all
and these are the days that never end


Maybe I'm crazy
But it's crazy and it's true
I know you can save me
No one else can save me but you


As long as the planets are turning
As long as the stars are burning
As long as your dreams are comming true--
You better believe it!--


That I would to anything for love
And I'll be there until the final act--
I would do anything for love!
And I'll take a vow and seal a pact--


But I'll never forgive myself if we don't go all the way--
Tonight--
I would do anything for love!
I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that
I won't do that...


I would do anything for love
Anything you've been dreaming of
But I just won't do that...


Somedays I pray for silence
Somedays I pray for sould
Somedays I just pray to the God of Sex and Drums and Rock'N Roll


Some night I lose the feeling
Some nights I lose control
Some night I just lose it all when I watch you dance and the thunder rolls


Maybe I'm lonely
And that's all I'm qualified to be
There's just one and only
The one and only promise I can keep


As long as the wheels are turning
As long as the fires are burning
As long as your prayers are coming true--
You better believe it--!


That I would do anything for love!
And you know it's true and that's a face
I would do anything for love!
And there'll never be no turning back--


But I'll never do it better than I do it with you
So long--
So long--
I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that
I won't do that


I would do anything for love
Anything you've been dreaming of
But I won't do that...


But I'll never stop dreaming of you
Every night of my life--
No way--


I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that
I won't do that!


Girl:
Will you raise me up?
Will you help me down?
Will you get me right out if this Godforsaken town?
Will you make it all a little less cold?


Boy:
I can do that!
I can do that!


Girl:
Will you hold me sacred?
Will you hold me tight?
Can you colorize my life I'm so sick of black and white?
Can you make it all a little less old?


Boy:
I can do that!
I can do that!


Girl:
Will you make me some magic
With your own two hands?
Can you build an emerald city with these grains of sand?
Can you give me something I can take home?


Boy:
I can do that!
I can do that!


Girl:
Will you cater to every fantasy I got?
Will ya hose me down with holy water--if I get to hot--?
Will ya take me to places I've never known?


Boy:
I can do that!
I can do that!


Girl:
After a while you'll forget everything
It was a brief interlude
And a midsummer night's fling
And you'll see that it's time to move on


Boy:
I won't do that!
I won't do that!

A fair face may fade, but a beautiful soul lasts forever

I used to be the kind of guy
Who'd never let you look inside
I'd smile when I was crying
I had nothing but a life to lose
Thought I had a lot to prove
In my life, there's no denying

Goodbye to all my yesterdays
Goodbye, so long, I'm on my way
I've had enough of cryin'
Bleedin', sweatin', dyin'
Hear me when I say
Gonna live my life everyday
I'm gonna touch the sky
And I spread these wings and fly
I ain't here to play
I'm gonna live my life everyday

Change, everybody's feeling strange
Never gonna be the same
Makes you wonder how the world keeps turning
Life, learning how to live my life
Learning how to pick my fights
(I'll) Take my shots while I'm still burning

Goodbye to all those rainy nights
Goodbye, so long, I'm moving on
I've had enough of cryin'
Bleedin', sweatin', dyin'
Hear me when I say
Gonna live my life everyday
I'm gonna touch the sky
And I spread these wings and fly
I ain't here to play
I'm gonna live my life everyday

Hit the gas, take the wheel, I just made myself a deal
There ain't nothing gonna get in my way
Everyday

Goodbye, so long, I'm moving on
I've had enough of cryin'
Bleedin', sweatin', dyin'
Hear me when I say
Gonna live my life everyday
I'm gonna touch the sky
And I spread these wings and fly
I ain't here to play
I'm gonna live my life everyday
I, oh I, oh I, I'm gonna live my life everyday
I (gonna touch the sky), oh I (spread these wings and fly), oh I
I'm gonna live my life everyday

Everyday........Bon Jovi
