PUPPY  LOVE

There goes that same old feelin’

That sets her heart to reelin’

When a certain someone passes by.

With his smile so tantalizin’,

And his eyes so paralyzin’

He makes her feel like she could fly

 

But she just keeps on walkin’

She knows if she starts talkin’

The words she wants to say just won’t come out

She passes by him on the street,

Heart skipping every other beat.

That’s what puppy love is all about.

 

That same feelin’ is beginnin’,

And it sets his head a-spinnin’

When he sees that certain someone up ahead

With her long blonde hair a-blowin’

Her eyes so bright and glowin’,

He wants to say hello, but he’s afraid.

 

He just keeps on walkin’

‘Cause he knows if he starts talkin’

The words he wants to say just won’t come out

He passes by her on the street,

Hoping that their eyes don’t meet.

That’s what puppy love is all about.

 

He turns around to see her

Turn around and look his way

Suddenly, like magic,

They both know what to say

 

Towards each other they start walkin’

When they meet, they both start talkin’

The words they held inside come pouring out

Now they’re both walkin’ down the street

Hearts keepin’ time to this new beat

And that’s what puppy love is all about.

MUST BE THE RAIN

 

 

<verse>

Lookin’ out the window at a cloudy sky

Down below I watch people passing by

Young lovers, dodging raindrops,

 Steal a kiss beneath the trees

And suddenly

 

<chorus>

I’m

Feelin’  sentimental, feelin’ a little down,

Can’t be ‘cause you’re not around.

Must be the rain

Feelin’ a little lonely, feelin’ a little blue,

But it can’t be ‘cause I’m missin’ you.

Must be the rain.

 

<verse>

Raindrops dancing on the window pane

Keepin' time to the rhythm of your name

Somewhere, in the distance,

A clock ticks on the wall

And through it all........

 

<chorus>

I’m

Feelin ‘ sentimental, feelin’ a little down

But it can’t be ‘cause you’re not around

Must be the rain.

Feelin a little lonely, feelin a little blue

Can’t be ‘cause I’m missin’ you

Must be the rain…….

 

Feelin sentimental, feelin’ a little down?

It can’t be ‘cause you’re not around.

Must be the rain…….

Gotta be the rain......

Must be the rain........

 

<fade out>

Can’t be ‘cause I’m missin’ you

Must be the rain

Gotta be the rain

Has to be the rain……..

MEDIOCRE BLUES

 

The same ole sun rises every day

The same ole stars come out at night to play

And every night I gaze

At that big yeller moon.

I’ve got those all day, all night,

Mediocre blues.

 

The mailman shows up at my door

Every day, bout a quarter til four.

He don’t bring me letters,

And the bills are still past due

I’ve got those all-day, all-night

Mediocre blues

 

Ain’t had no lovin’ since I don’t know when

Same ole tears rollin’ down my chin

Same lonesome feelin’

Since my baby said we’re through

Got those all-day, all-night

Mediocre blues

 

One day’s just like another, ain’t no need to bother

Even turnin’ the calendar page.

Still ain’t got no money, still ain’t got no honey

Oh Lordy, how I need a change.

 

Yeah,  same ole sun rises every day,

Same ole heartache since my baby went away,

And every night I gaze

At that big yeller moon

Got those all-day, all-night

Mediocre blues……….

 

Yeah, I got them same ole, same ole, mediocre blues.

I CAN HANDLE THAT

<verse>

You think I won’t be happy

In a cabin by the shore.

A million miles from nowhere.

With a leaky roof, and squeaky floor.

You say the winter nights are cold

And sometimes it snows a foot.

I might have to spend some time

Down by the holler, choppin’ wood.

 

<chorus>

Well, Darlin’ I can handle that

And anything else in sight,

If I can wake up with you every mornin’

And sleep in your arms every night.

 

<verse>

You say the city’s 50 miles,

And the road is full of ruts

The bridge to town washes out

Every time it floods.

There ain’t no fancy restaurants

Not even a Domino’s

And I won’t find a shoppin’ mall

Where I can buy new clothes.

 

<chorus>

Well, Darlin’ I can handle that

And anything else in sight,

If I can wake up with you each mornin’

And sleep in your arms every night.

 

<bridge>

I don’t need no chandeliers,

Just need you whisperin’ in my ear

And  I Don’t need no fancy dressin’

Just  your huggin’ and  your kissin’!

 

<chorus 2>

Yeah, Darlin, I can handle that,

And, by golly I just might.

I’d love wakin'  up with you each mornin,

And sleepin' in your arms each  night.

SILENTLY

 

When my mind fills with distrust

And not too much seems fair or just

When I’m not sure just what to do

I close my eyes and think of you

Silently, without a sound

You pick me up off of the ground

 

Silently,…your memory…
Tiptoes through my mind

Silently…your memory…
Is there to be my guide

 

For many moons and rising suns,

You taught me how to carry on

Times were bad, and times were good.

Through it all, you understood.

Silently, without a sound,

You picked me up off of the ground

 

Silently…your memory…
Ttiptoes through my mind.

Silently, …your memory…
Is there to be my guide.

 

The eagle spreads his wings
To fly beyond the setting sun

Your spirit rises with him…
your journey has begun.

One last goodbye…then I cry
 My tears falling like rain

Then, silently…your memory
Helps to ease the pain

.

Silently…….your memory…
Tiptoes through my mind

Silently……your memory…
Will always be my guide.

Silently…….without a sound,
You pick me up off of the ground.

SOMEONE LIKE YOU

 

High on a mountain, gazing at stars
Wondering which one is Venus, which one is Mars
Making a wish on a star clear and bright
As we're holding hands in the still of the night.

 

And we've only just met, so how can it be
That already we're making fond memories?
It's not making much sense what we're going through
But it's nice holding hands with someone like you.

 

[Chorus]
Yes, someone like you and that look in your eyes
Blankets my heart like those stars in the sky
And I'd stay here forever if you wanted me to
'Cause I love holding hands with someone like you.

 

<verse>

Thoughts in our heads we won't let out
Thoughts that we share but don't talk about
No need for words the message gets through
It's nice holding hands with someone like you.

[Back to Chorus]
