Mrs. Brown You've Got a Lovely Daughter
Herman's Hermits

Mrs. Brown you've got a lovely daughter
Girls as sharp as her are somethin' rare
But it's sad, she doesn't love me now
She's made it clear enough it ain't no good to pine

She wants to return those things I bought her
Tell her she can keep them just the same
Things have changed, she doesn't love me now
She's made it clear enough it ain't no good to pine

Walkin' about, even in a crowd, well
You'll pick her out, makes a bloke feel so proud

If she finds that I've been round to see you (round to see you)
Tell her that I'm well and feelin' fine (feelin' fine)
Don't let on, don't say she's broke my heart
I'd go down on my knees but it's no good to pine

Walkin' about, even in a crowd, well
You'll pick her out, makes a bloke feel so proud

If she finds that I've been round to see you (round to see you)
Tell her that I'm well and feelin' fine (feelin' fine)
Don't let on, don't say she's broke my heart
I'd go down on my knees but it's no good to pine

Mrs. Brown you've got a lovely daughter (lovely daughter)
Mrs. Brown you've got a lovely daughter (lovely daughter)

Brown Eyed Girl
Van Morrison

Hey, where did we go
Days when the rains came?
Down in the hollow
Playing a new game,
Laughing and a-running, hey, hey,
Skipping and a-jumping
In the misty morning fog with
Our, our hearts a-thumping
And you, my brown-eyed girl,
You, my brown-eyed girl.

Whatever happened
To Tuesday and so slow
Going down to the old mine with a
Transistor radio.
Standing in the sunlight laughing
Hide behind a rainbow's wall,
Slipping and a-sliding
All along the waterfall
With you, my brown-eyed girl,
You, my brown-eyed girl.

Do you remember when we used to sing
Sha la la la la la la la la la la dee dah
Just like that
Sha la la la la la la la la la la dee dah
La dee dah.

So hard to find my way
Now that I'm all on my own.
I saw you just the other day,
My, how you have grown!
Cast my memory back there, Lord,
Sometime I'm overcome thinking about
Making love in the green grass
Behind the stadium
With you, my brown-eyed girl,
You, my brown-eyed girl.

Do you remember when we used to sing
Sha la la la la la la la la la la dee dah
Laying in the green grass
Sha la la la la la la la la la la dee dah
Dee dah dee dah dee dah dee dah dee dah dee
Sha la la la la la la la la la la la la
Dee dah la dee dah la dee dah la


A Pair Of Brown Eyes
Pogues

One summer evening drunk to hell
I sat there nearly lifeless
An old man in the corner sang
Where the water lilies grow
And on the jukebox Johnny sang
About a thing called love
And it's how are you kid and what's your name
And how would you bloody know?
In blood and death 'neath a screaming sky
I lay down on the ground
And the arms and legs of other men
Were scattered all around
Some cursed, some prayed, some prayed then cursed
Then prayed and bled some more
And the only thing that I could see
Was a pair of brown eyes that was looking at me
But when we got back, labeled parts one to three
There was no pair of brown eyes waiting for me

And a rovin' a rovin' a rovin' I'll go
For a pair of brown eyes

I looked at him he looked at me
All I could do was hate him
While Ray and Philomena sang
Of my elusive dream
I saw the streams, the rolling hills
Where his brown eyes were waiting
And I thought about a pair of brown eyes
That waited once for me
So drunk to hell I left the place
Sometimes crawling sometimes walking
A hungry sound came across the breeze
So I gave the walls a talking
And I heard the sounds of long ago
From the old canal
And the birds were whistling in the trees
Where the wind was gently laughing

And a rovin' a rovin' a rovin' I'll go
For a pair of brown eyes

... - Taco Lyrics - Winchester Cathedral Lyrics

Winchester Cathedral

You're bringin' me down

You stood there and watched as

My baby left town



You could've done something

But you didn't try

You didn't do nothing

You let her walk by



Now everyone knows just how much I need her, that girl (are you that girl)

She wouldn't have gone far away if only you'd started ringing your bell



Winchester Cathedral

You're bringin' me down

You stood there and watched as

My baby left town

Harrison Ford
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Born: July 13, 1942
Chicago, Illinois, USA

Harrison Ford (born July 13, 1942) is an Academy Award-nominated American actor. He is best known for his performances as the tough, wisecracking space pilot Han Solo in the Star Wars film series, and the adventurous, tenacious archaeologist/action hero Indiana Jones of Raiders of the Lost Ark and its sequels.

Ford has also been the star of many high grossing hit Hollywood blockbusters such as Air Force One and The Fugitive which have distanced him from his famous Star Wars and Indiana Jones roles.

As of January 2006, the combined domestic box office grosses of Ford's films total approximately US$3.05 billion [1], with worldwide grosses at approximately US $5.65 billion.

Ford is an Honorary Chair of the Indianapolis Prize, the world's leading award for animal conservation.


Early life

Ford was born on July 13, 1942 at 11:41 AM in Chicago, Illinois at Swedish Covenant Hospital to Dorothy Nidelman (born Dora Nidelman on October 17, 1917 in New Jersey; died February 10, 2004), a former radio actress, and Christopher Ford (born John William Ford on November 20, 1906 in New York; died February 10, 1999), an advertising executive and a former actor. Ford's maternal grandparents, Harry Nidelman and Anna Lifschutz, were Jewish immigrants from Minsk, Belarus who met in Brooklyn and moved to New Jersey. His Catholic paternal grandparents were John Fitzgerald Ford (an Irish American vaudeville performer) and Florence Veronica Niehaus (a German American). Ford's parents were Democrats and not regular churchgoers.[2] Harrison, when asked as to what religion he was raised in, jokingly responded, "Democrat."[3] Ford has also said that he feels "Irish as a person but I feel Jewish as an actor".[4]

In 1960, Ford graduated from Maine East High School in Park Ridge, Illinois, where he claims he was picked on by bullies and ignored by girls and also voted "Boy Least Likely to Succeed". He attended Ripon College in Wisconsin, where he was a member of the Sigma Nu Fraternity. He took a drama class in his junior year, chiefly as a way to meet women. Ford, a self-described "late bloomer", became fascinated with acting. Toward the end of his college freshman year, he was a member of a folk band called The Brothers Gross, in which he played gutbucket. In 1964, Ford moved to Los Angeles, California, where he signed a contract with Columbia Pictures for $150 a week in the studio's New Talent program, playing bit roles in three films. Ford was credited as "Harrison J. Ford" for a small role in the 1967 Western, A Time for Killing, but the "J" didn't stand for anything because he does not have a middle name. It was added to avoid confusion with the other actor named Harrison Ford, who died in 1957.

Ford dropped the "J" from his name and worked in minor television roles for Universal Studios. Not happy with the acting jobs being offered to him, Ford became a self-taught professional carpenter to better support his then-wife and two small sons before his break-through role in American Graffiti; some of Ford's carpentry work remains in the Hollywood Hills area. While working as a carpenter, he became a stagehand for the popular rock band, The Doors.

Career

Harrison Ford's work as a carpenter would land the actor his biggest role to date. In 1975, director George Lucas, who had cast Ford in a pivotal supporting role in "Graffiti", hired Ford to build some cabinets in his home and used him to read lines for actors being cast for parts in Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. It was Steven Spielberg who first noticed that Ford was well suited for the part of Han Solo.


Harrison Ford as Captain Han Solo in Star Wars: Episode V The Empire Strikes BackThe 6'1" Ford went on to star as Han Solo in the next 2 Star Wars sequels, Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back and Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi. He wanted George Lucas to write in the death of the iconic Han Solo character at the beginning of the third act of Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi, saying that it would lend more dramatic weight to the film, but Lucas refused. [5] He starred as Indiana Jones in Raiders of the Lost Ark and its two sequels to date, and as Jack Ryan in Tom Clancy's Patriot Games and Clear and Present Danger. Ford's other well-known films include Blade Runner, Witness, The Fugitive (1993), and the remake of Sabrina, among others. While often playing the leading man or the hero of many action films, Ford had a change of pace, playing an adulterous husband with a terrible secret in What Lies Beneath.

Many of Ford's major film roles came to him by default and other unusual circumstances: Han Solo, due to his reading lines for other actors; Indiana Jones, because actor Tom Selleck was not available; and Jack Ryan, apparently due to Alec Baldwin's fee demands (Baldwin had previously played the role in The Hunt for Red October).

The 2001 edition of the Guinness Book of Records listed Ford as the richest actor alive: his reported salary for the 2002 film K-19: The Widowmaker was more than $25 million. The 27 movies that he has starred in have grossed a combined box office of more than $3.3 billion. However, despite being one of the most financially successful actors of his generation, Ford has received only one Oscar nomination, that of Best Actor for Witness. In 1999, he received the Life Achievement Award from the American Film Institute and received a star in front of the Kodak Theatre at 6801 Hollywood Blvd. on June 2, 2003.

Ford's star power has waned in recent years, the result of appearing in numerous critically derided and commercially disappointing movies like Random Hearts, K-19: The Widowmaker, Hollywood Homicide and Firewall. Even What Lies Beneath, which featured an unusually dark performance from Ford, was widely criticised as predictable and formulaic, and proved to be only a moderate financial success. In January 2005 he was overtaken by Samuel L. Jackson as the top star of the combined highest-grossing films in Hollywood, and Mel Gibson has overtaken him as the richest living actor, largely thanks to the success of The Passion of the Christ, which Gibson produced and directed but did not star in.

In 2004, Ford declined a chance to star in the thriller Syriana, commenting that "I didn't feel strongly enough about the truth of the material and I think I made a mistake". The role eventually went to George Clooney, who won an Oscar and a Golden Globe for his work. [6]. Ford also turned down leading roles in critically acclaimed films The Patriot, Traffic and A History of Violence.

He is currently scheduled to star in a fourth Indiana Jones movie with a story by George Lucas, screenplay by David Koepp, and direction by Steven Spielberg. Some fans of the franchise and its title character have expressed concerns that he is too old at 64 to reprise that role. Others are just happy to hear that he is going to dust off the fedora and pull out the bullwhip one last time. The movie's release, originally intended for May 2007, has now been postponed to 2008, leading some to question if it will ever be made at all. Sean Connery, who announced his retirement from acting in 2004, has confirmed he will not appear in the film.

Personal life

Ford has been married twice. He married Mary Marquardt in 1964, and divorced her in 1979. He had two children with her, Benjamin (born in 1967) and Willard (born in 1969). He married again, to Melissa Mathison, screenwriter of The Black Stallion, Kundun, and E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial, on March 14, 1983. They had two children: a son, Malcolm (born on March 10, 1987), and a daughter, Georgia (born on June 30, 1990). Mathison filed for legal separation on August 23, 2001, and their subsequent divorce in January 2004 has become one of the most expensive in Hollywood history. Ford has since been dating actress Calista Flockhart.

Ford is a private pilot of both planes and helicopters, and owns an 800-acre (3.2-km²) ranch in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, approximately half of which he has donated as a nature reserve. On October 23, 1999, Ford crash-landed a helicopter during a training exercise [7], flipping the helicopter onto its side. Neither Ford nor the instructor were injured. On several occasions, Ford has personally provided emergency helicopter services at the behest of local authorities, in one instance rescuing a hiker overcome by dehydration.

He is the current Chairman of the Experimental Aircraft Association's Young Eagle program, taking over after Chuck Yeager retired. Ford also gives of his time and money for environmental causes. He sits on the board of directors of Conservation International. Ford has assisted musician Jimmy Buffett by recording whip cracks (a skill learned during "Raiders of the Lost Ark") used in the Buffett song "Desperation Samba (Halloween in Tijuana)".

Though he dislikes public speaking, Ford once appeared before a U.S. Senate subcommittee on behalf of the people of Tibet. His goal was to prevent China from gaining Most Favored Nation status, because of the Chinese occupation of Tibet. As a result, Ford is banned by the People's Republic of China from entering Tibet.

Ford is one of Hollywood's most notoriously private actors, rigidly guarding his private life. Outside of film promotion, he rarely appears in the press, preferring to keep to himself at his Wyoming home. In fact, Ford considers the Internet to invade his best intentions of privacy [8].

In March 2003 various newspapers reported that Ford disapproved of a letter signed by several Hollywood celebrities urging President George W. Bush not to invade Iraq. Some implied that through his disapproval he favored a Bush led invasion of Iraq. Ford responded to the reports through his spokeswoman Patricia McQueeney. He said he favored "regime change on both sides". Ford is a vocal supporter of gay marriage.

In August 2003 Ford condemned the Iraq war in an interview with a Spanish newspaper. He went on to criticize the proliferation of firearms in the United States, something that caused controversy given that he has used handguns in most of his movies.

Ford opposed the recall of California Governor Gray Davis and warned that replacing him with Republican candidate Arnold Schwarzenegger would be a disaster for the state. In September 2003 Ford caused further controversy by presenting his friend, film director Roman Polanski, with his Best Director Oscar for The Pianist in Paris, where the director has been a fugitive since fleeing the United States in 1978 after pleading guilty to one count of statutory rape. Ford, who was directed by Polanski in 1987's Frantic, had accepted the Oscar in Polanski's absence at the 75th Annual Academy Awards.

When George Lucas and company began the merchandising for the original Star Wars films, Ford was the head negotiator in what eventually led to the lead actors receiving royalties from their likenesses and use of their images in any sold merchandise.

Trivia

In 1993, the arachnologist Norman Platnick named a new species of spider Calponia harrisonfordi, and in 2002, the entomologist Edward O. Wilson named a new ant species Pheidole harrisonfordi (in recognition of Harrison's work as Vice Chairman of Conservation International).

Harrison Ford cut his chin in a car accident in Northern California when he was about 20.

Ford admitted in a 1997 interview that he managed to dodge the draft during the Vietnam War, because he "did not want to participate in an illegal conflict aimed at maintaining American imperialism".[citation needed]

Prior to the release of Star Wars, Shel Dorf (founder of Comic Con) had a chance encounter with Ford at the production offices and did an interview with him for the comic book adzine then known as The Buyer's Guide for Comics Fandom (now Comics Buyer's Guide). In it Ford derisively spoke of his "so-called career" as an actor.

Bob Crane
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Born July 13, 1928
Waterbury, Connecticut, USA
Died June 29, 1978
Scottsdale, Arizona, USA

Robert Edward Crane (July 13, 1928-June 29, 1978) was an American disc jockey and actor who starred as Colonel Robert Hogan in the television sitcom Hogan's Heroes from 1965 to 1971. He was nominated for two Emmy Awards for his work on that show. His 1978 murder remains officially unsolved. The resulting investigation brought to public light the double life that Crane had been leading for years as an amateur pornographer and sex addict.

Life

Crane was born in Waterbury, Connecticut. He dropped out of high school and became a drummer, performing with dance bands and a symphony orchestra. In 1949 he married his high school sweetheart; they eventually had three children.

Career

He started his broadcasting career in 1950, working at three different radio stations before the year was up -- first at WLEA in Hornell, N.Y., then at WBIS in Bristol, Connecticut, and finally at WICC-AM in Bridgeport, Connecticut, a 500-watt operation where he stayed until 1956.[1] That station had virtually no listeners; it was noted that one time, he offered $100 to the first listener who called in -- and the phone didn't ring. In 1956, he moved his family to California to continue his radio career.

Crane's interest turned to acting, and at the age of 33 he began his career. He soon was a regular on The Donna Reed Show during the 1963 - 1965 seasons. On The Dick Van Dyke Show he played a character named "Harry" who tried out for the role of Marc Anthony in a community play. The character for which he is best known is "Colonel Robert Hogan", the lead role in Hogan's Heroes. Crane landed parts in a few feature films (Superdad) but had no breakout roles.

Violent death

Crane was bludgeoned to death in Scottsdale, Arizona, in a murder case that was never officially solved. An associate, John Henry Carpenter, was tried for the murder but was not convicted. Prior to the murder, Carpenter and Crane had made pornographic videos of Crane having sex with numerous women.

Crane's life and murder was the subject of the 2002 film Auto Focus. His son, Scotty Crane, and his second wife, Patricia Olsen, objected to the way Crane was portrayed and took to the media to present their side of the story. Shortly before the film's release, Scotty started a website featuring Bob Crane's amateur pornography. He later took the video clips off the site.

According to an A&E Network program on the subject, Crane had tired of his libertine lifestyle and wished to resume leading a more normal life. Since this would have meant cutting off his relationship with Carpenter, this decision of Crane's was presumed to be the motive for the murder. As Carpenter was acquitted, both the murderer and the motive remain officially open questions.

"Lord?"
"Yes, Eve"
"I know that you created me and provided this beautiful garden
and all of these wonderful animals, as well as that hilarious comedic
snake, but I'm just not happy."
"And why is that Eve?"
"Lord, I am lonely, and I'm sick to death of apples."
"Well, Eve, in that case, I have a solution. I shall create a
man for you."
"Man? What is that Lord?"
"A flawed creature, with many bad traits. He'll lie, cheat and
be vain; all in all, he'll give you a hard time. But he'll be bigger,
faster and will like to hunt and kill things, I'll create him in such a
way that he will satisfy your physical needs. He will be witless and
will revel in childish things like fighting and kicking a ball about. He
won't be too smart, so he will also need your advice to think properly."
"Sounds great," says Eve, with ironically raised eyebrows, "but
what's the catch Lord?"
"Well...you can have him on one condition."
"And what's that, Lord?"
"As I said, he'll be proud, arrogant and self-admiring. You'll
have to let him believe that I made him first. And it will have to be
our little secret. You know, Woman to Woman."

Well, folks, our Bob has left us with a great one. Love it, hawkman, especially the "woman to woman" ending. Laughing

My, my. Isn't that an interesting thing about Harrison Ford. Ugly ducklings often turn into swans, no?

Bob Crane's murder is still a cold case file, but I had read somewhere that he was gay, and your info states the opposite.

Yes, Patrick Stewart. Fantastic actor. "Make it so".

Thanks, buddy. We always learn something from your bio's.

We are certain that our Raggedy will be here soon with her usual and wonderful montage.

Why don't we sing this song all together
Open our heads let the pictures come
And if we close all our eyes together
Then we will see where we all come from
Pictures of us through the steamy haze
Picture of us painted in our place
Why don't we sing this song all together
Open our heads let the pictures come
And if we close all our eyes together
Then we will see where we all come from

Why don't we sing this song all together
Open our heads let the pictures come
And if we close all our eyes together
Then we will see where we all come from
Pictures of us beating on our drum
Never stopping til the rain has come
Why don't we sing this song all together
Open our heads let the pictures come
And if we close all our eyes together
Then we will see where we all come from

Perfect, Mr. Turtle. Thank you for bringing things together here on our little radio.

Hope you don't mind, but I will take the liberty of playing this one for you from your lady. <smile>

ELTON JOHN

My gift is my song... and this one's for you
And you can tell everybody that this is your song
It may be quite simple, but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
That I put down in words...
How wonderful life is, now you're in the world

I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well some of these verses, well they,
they've got me quite cross
But the sun's been kind while I wrote this song
It's for people like you that keep it turned on

So excuse me forgetting, but these things I do
You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
Anyway, the thing is, what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes, I've ever seen

And you can tell everbody that this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is, now you're in the world
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is, now you're in the world

ah, Raggedy. Once again your eternal triangle of pictures is wonderful. Thanks, PA.

Raggedy, I love the Willie Nelson song, honey. Do you know that green eyes are a recessive gene?

How about a melodramatic one about troubled eyes, folks.

Sung by: Roberta and Bob Blair

Willie, my darling, I love you,
Love you with all my heart.
Tomorrow we could have been married,
But liquor has kept us apart.

Chorus: Beautiful, beautiful brown eyes,
Beautiful, beautiful brown eyes,
Beautiful, beautiful brown eyes--
I'll never love blue eyes again.

Down through the barroom he staggered
And fell down by the door.
The very last words that he murmured:
"I'll never get drunk any more."

(Chorus)

Seven long years I've been married,
And I wish I was single again.
A woman never knows her troubles
Until she has married a man.

(Chorus)

She was standin' on the gone side of leavin'
She found her thumb and stuck it in the breeze
She'll take anything and that's goin close to somewhere
She can lay it down and live it as she please

[Chorus:]
She ain't goin' nowhere
She's just leavin
She ain't goin nowhere
She can't breathe in
She ain't goin' home and that's for sure

She's not sittin' down and crying on her suitcase
She has no second thoughts by the road
She's got feelings that need some repairin'
And she did not give a damn that it showed

[Chorus]

The wind had a way with her hair
And the blues had a way with her smile
And she had a way of her own
Like prisoners have a way with a file

[Chorus 2x]

She ain't goin' home... that's for sure

i happen to like "your song," though it's a bit corny for my taste. Embarrassed so thanks indeed for playing it. i'll have to play Mrs. y's favorite or 2 sometime.

incidentally, here's the opening stanzas that got lopped off:

It's a little bit funny this feeling inside
I'm not one of those who can easily hide
I don't have much money but boy if I did
I'd buy a big house where we both could live

If I was a sculptor, but then again, no
Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show
I know it's not much but it's the best I can do
My gift is my song and this one's for you

I can't remember the lyrics to "Brown Eyes, Why Are You Blue", a little ditty my mother used to sing, but I do remember this one:

I don't know when I've been so blue
Don't know what's come over you
You've found someone new
And don't it make my brown eyes blue

I'll be fine when you're gone
I'll just cry all night long
Say it isn't true
And don't it make my brown eyes blue

Tell me no secrets, tell me some lies
Give me no reasons, give me alibis
Tell me you love me and don't let me cry
Say anything but don't say goodbye

I didn't mean to treat you bad
Didn't know just what I had
But honey now I do
And don't it make my brown eyes
Don't it make my brown eyes
Don't it make my brown eyes blue

Tell me no secrets, tell me some lies
Give me no reasons, give me alibis
Tell me you love me and don't let me cry
Say anything but don't say goodbye

I didn't mean to treat you bad
Didn't know just what I had
But honey now I do
And don't it make my brown eyes
Don't it make my brown eyes
Don't it make my brown eyes blue


So Letty, are you a Greeneyed Lady?

these are awful lyrics--in my lowly opinion--by Sugarloaf, but the tune was catchy:

Green Eyed Lady, lovely lady
Strolling slowly towards the sun

Green eyed lady ocean lady
Soothing every wave that comes

Green eyed lady, passion's lady
Dressed in love she lives for life to be

Green eyed lady feels like I never see
Setting suns and lonely lovers free

[Organ solo]

Green eyed lady, windswept lady
Moves the night the waves the sand

Green eyed lady ocean lady
Child of nature, friend of man

Green eyed lady passions lady
Dressed in love she lives for life to be

Green eyed lady feels like I never see

Oops, Turtleman. Missed that Green Eyed lady. Hey. Those lyrics are not bad at all. Then, of course, there's the other type green eyes:

» Jealousy

Oh how wrong can you be
Oh to fall in love
Was my very first mistake
How was I to know
I was far too much in love to see
Jealousy, look at me now
Jealousy, you got me somehow
You gave me no warning
Took me by surprise
Jealousy, you led me on
You couldn't lose
You couldn't fail
You had suspicion on my trail
How, how, how, oh my jealousy
I wasn't man enough
To let you hurt my pride
Now I'm only left with my own jealousy
Oh how strong can you be
With matters of the heart
Life is much to short
To while away with tears
If only you could see
Just what you do to me
Jealousy, you tripped me up
Jealousy, you brought me down
You bring me sorrow
You cause me pain
Jealousy, when will you let go
Gotta hold of my possesive mind
Turned me into a jealous kind
How, how, how, oh my jealousy
I wasn't man enough
To let you hurt my pride
Now I'm only left with my own jealousy
But now it matters not
If I should live or die
Cause I'm only left with my own jealousy

Good afternoon folks, sorry to be late again, but I was looking for…

Somewhere Only We Know
Keane - Lyrics

I walked across an empty land,
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand.
I felt the earth beneath my feet,
Sat by the river and it made me complete.
Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on.
So tell me when you're gonna let me in,
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin.

I came across a fallen tree,
I felt the branches of it looking at me.
Is this the place we used to love?
Is this the place that I've been dreaming of?

Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on.
So tell me when you're gonna let me in,
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin.

And if you have a minute why don't we go,
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything.
So why don't we go, somewhere only we know,
Somewhere only we know.

Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on.
So, tell me when you gonna let me in,
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin.
And if you have a minute why don't we go,
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything.
So why don't we go, so why don't we go,

Hmmm yea,

This could be the end of everything.
So why don't we go, somewhere only we know,
Somewhere only we know?
Somewhere only we know.

Well, there's our Try, folks. Welcome back to our wee studio, buddy. Yes, someone to rely on is a great feeling, honey, so you can.....

Bill Withers

Sometimes in our lives we all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow

Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

Please swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can fill those of your needs
That you don't let show

Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

If there is a load you have to bear
That you can't carry
I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
If you just call me

So just call on me brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'd understand
We all need somebody to lean on

Lean on me when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
Till I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

Lean on me...

Jealousy
Frankie Laine

Jealousy, night and day you torture me.
I sometimes wonder if this spell that I'm under,
Can only be a melody for I know no one but me,
Has won your heart but when the music starts:

My peace departs,
From the moment they play that lovely strain
And we surrender to all its charm again.
This jealousy that tortures me is ecstasy, mystery, pain.

We dance to a tango of love.
Your heart beats with mine as we sway.
Your eyes give the answer I'm dreaming of:
That soft word your cruel lips will never say.

Well, I fear that the music will end,
And shatter the spell it may lend.
To make me believe when your eyes just deceive,
It's only a tango you love.

I fear that the music will end,
And shatter the spell it may lend.
To make me believe when your eyes just deceive,
It's only a tango you love.
It's only a tango that you love.
