Lost Horizon
04:03
|
|||
Have you ever dreamed of a place
Far away from it all
Where the air you breathe is soft and clean
And clildren play in field of green
And the sound of guns
Doesn`t pound in your ears anymore
Have you ever dreamed of place
Far away from it all
Where the winter winds will never blow
And ter sound of guns
Doesn`t pound on your eaes anymore
Many miles from yesterday before you reach tomorrow
Where the time is always just today
There`s a lost horizon waiting to be found
There`slost horizon
Where the sound of guns
Doesn`t pound in your ears anymore

Paper Mache
03:04
|

Twenty houses in a row:
Eighty people watch a TV show.
Paper people, cardboard dreams,
how unreal the whole world seems...
Can we be living in a world made of paper mache?
Everything is clean and so neat.
Anything that's wrong can be just swept away.
Spray it with cologne, and the whole world smells sweet.
Ice cream cones and candy bars,
swings, and things like bicycles and cars...
There's a sale on happiness:
You buy two, and it costs less.
Can we be living in a world made of paper mache?
Everything is clean and so neat.
Anything that's wrong can be just swept away.
Spray it with cologne, and the whole world smells sweet.
Read the papers.Keep aware
while you're lounging in your leather chair.
And if things don't look so good,
shake your head and knock on wood.
Can we be living in a world made of paper mache?
Everything is clean and so neat.
Anything that's wrong can be just swept away.
Spray it with cologne, and the whole world smells sweet,
like paper mache.

Tower Of Strength
02:07

If were a tower of strength, I'd walk away
I'd look in your eyes and here's what I'd say
I don't want you I don't need you I don't love you anymore
And I'd walk out that door You'd be down on your knees
You's be calling to me
But a tower of strength is a something
I'll never be
If I were a tower of strngth, I'd watch you cry
I'd laugh at your tears and tell you goodbye
I don't want you I don't need you I don't love you anymore
And I'd walk out that door You'd be down on your knees
You's be calling to me-ee
But a tower of strength is a something
I'll never be
I don't want you I don't need you I don't love you anymore
And I'd walk out that door You'd be down on your knees
You's be calling to me-ee
But a tower of strength is a something
I'll never be

Long long ago in a land far away
a little boy and a girl were so in love
standing neath the moon above
He said "Me Japaness Boy, I love you, I do love you
You Japanese Girl, you love me, Please say you do"
They carved their names on an cherry tree
Just like they've done in Japan since time began
then he genttly held her hand
And said
Me Japaness Boy, I love you, I do love you
You Japanese Girl, you love me, Please say you do"
In a blue and white Kimono
she became his happy bride
from that day until this very moment
she'd been standing by his side
Now they are old and from what I am told
They're in love just as much as they once were
every night he kissed her
And said
Me Japaness Boy, I love you, I do love you"
There is way that it should be when love is true
There is way that it should be for me and you.

Wives And Lovers
02:30
|
|||
Hey, little girl, comb your hair,
fix your make-up, soon he will open the door
Don`t think because there`s a ring on your finger,
you needn`t try any more
For wives should always be lovers too
Run to his arms the moment
that he comes home to you
I`m warning you
Day after day, there are girls
at the office and the men will always be men
Don`t stand him up,
with your hair still in curlers,
you may not see him again
wives should always be lovers too
Run to his arms the moment
he comes home to you
He`s almost here
hey, little girl,
better wear something pretty
Something you wear to go to the city
Dim all the lights, pour the wine,
start the music, time to get ready for love
Time to get ready for love,
yes it`s time to get ready for love
It`s time to get ready,
kick your shoes off, baby

What do you get when you fall in love?
A guy with a pin to burst your bubble
That's what you get for all your trouble.
I'll never fall in love again.
I'll never fall in love again.
What do you get when you kiss a guy?
You get enough germs to catch pneumonia.
After you do, he'll never phone you.
I'll never fall in love again.
I'll never fall in love again.
Don't tell me what is all about,
'Cause I've been there and I'm glad I'm out,
Out of those chains, those chains that bind you
That is why I'm here to remind you
What do you get when you fall in love?
You get enough tears to fill an ocean
That's what you get for your devotion.
I'll never fall in love again.
I'll never fall in love again.
What do you get when you fall in love?
You only get lies and pain and sorrow.
So, for at least until tomorrow,
I'll never fall in love again!
I'll never fall in love again!
(Part of Bacharach/David Medley)
Don't tell me what it's all about
'Cause I've been there and I'm glad I'm out
Out of those chains, those chains that bind you
That is why I'm here to remind you. (here to mind you) 3x
What do you get when you fall in love?
You only get lies and pain and sorrow
So, for at least, until tomorrow
I'll never fall in love again
Oh, I'll never fall in love again

it doesn`t matter if you go or you stay
it diesn`t matter at all
i`ve made my mind up that i`m going away
and there`s no use cryin`
no use tellin`me youre sorry now

i know k took you back before
but i`m all through forhivin` you
there must be someone who is gentle and kind
there must be someone who`s true
and that`s the kind of girl i`m gonna find
and that`s no use cryin`
no use tellin` me haw much you`ve changed
it doesn`t matteranymore
i know k took you back before
but i`m all through forhivin` you
and there` no use cryin`
no use tellin`me how much you`ve changed
it doesn`t matter anymore
i know k took you back before
but i`m all through forhivin` you
i`m gonna find a love that`s true
i`m all through foregivin` you
i`m gonna find a love that`s true

Try To See It My Way
03:33
|

There you are lonely as can be
Still you keep resisting me
Won`t you please try to see it my way
Just for once try to see it my way
I want the best for you
Tell me how I can make you see that I understand
Let me lend a helping hand
Won`t you please try to see it my way
Just for once try to see it my way
And I will see you through
Don`t you know the most important thing
That someone can be taught
Is that living is learnig to share
It soon may be too late for us
So don`t turn away from those who show they care
Come on and take my hand, let me lead the way
I won`t let you go astray
Won`t you please try to see it my way
I`m so sure if you see it my way
It`s gonna be so fine
So wonderful and fine
Now while there still is time
It`s gonna be so fine
So wonderful and fine
Now while there still is time
Try to see it my way

Reflections
02:24
|

When you look at yourself do you like what you see?
If you like what you see, you`re the person you should be
`Cause your reflection reflects in everything you do
And everything you do reflects on you
When you wake up each day do you like how you feel?
If you like how you feel, you`ve got nothing to conceal
`Cause your reflection reflects in everything you do
And everything you do reflects on you
Doing something for someone else isn`t really for someone else
It does twice as much for you as something you do just for yourself
`Cause your reflection reflects in everything you do
And everything you do reflects on you
When you lay down to sleep do you like all your dreams?
If you like all your dreams, life`s as happy as it seems
`Cause your reflection reflects in everything you do
And everything you do reflects on you

Promise Her Anything
03:24
|
|||
She doesn′t really want things
that you could never get.
Still every now and then maybe
she′ll complain a bit because she feels upset
She only wants you to tell her that you love her
So if she wants you to turn winter into spring
Promise her anything she′s dreaming of
Promise her anything, she will be happy,
if she only gets your love.
She had a lot of dreams and you
can make them all come true
′Cause all she really wants is to know you
care for her, the way she cares for you
So why not promise her ruby, even diamonds,
She′d trade them all for
a plain gold wedding ring
Promise her anything she is dreaming of,
Promise her anything, she will be happy,
if she only gets your love.
Oh, you can promise her the moon
when sun is bright
And promise her the sun
when you′re out at night
Promise her the world and promise
her every wish is your command
And you′ll discover soon, she doesn′t
want the moon, just love will do
Promise hey anything. But don′t you ever,
let her, get away from you.

A christmas bell was cryin`
and Santa heard it say
I just can`t seem to jingle
and I can`t go on the sleigh
then Santa soon discovered the reason that it cried
the bell that couldn`t jingle
It had nothin` there inside
Then Santa said
Jack Frost will bring my Chirstmas
gift to you and on christmas eve you`ll
jingle just like you were brand new
then Jack Frost froze a teardrop
so each time that it swayed
the bell that couldn`t jingle
it went jingling all the way
(Listen!)
jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
The bell that couldn`t jingle
it went jingling all the way
It went jingling all the way
It went jingling all the way
It went jingling all the way
It went jingling all the way

Raindrops keep fallin′ on my head
And just like the guy
whose feet are too big for his bed
Nothin′ seems to fit
Those raindrops are fallin′ on my head.
they keep fallin′
So I just did me some talkin′ to the sun
And I said I didn′t like
the way the he got things done
Sleepin′ on the job
Those raindrops are fallin′ on my head,
they keep fallin′
But there′s one thing I know
The blues they send to meet me
won′t defeat me
It won′t be long
till happiness steps up to greet me
**
Rainsrops keep fallin′ on my head
But that dosen′t mean
my eyes will soon be turnin′ red
Cryin′s not for me
″Cause I′m never gonna
stop the rain by complainin′
Because I′m free
Nothin′s worryin′ me
It won′t be long
till happiness steps up to greet me
** Repeat
