Tennessee waltz |
I was dancing with my darlin to the tennessee waltz When an old friend I happened to see I introduced her to my loved one and while they were dancing My friend stole my sweet heart from me I remember the night and the tennessee waltz Now I know just how much I have lost Yes I lost my little darlin the night they were playing The beautiful tennessee waltz

Too young |
They try to tell us we're too young, Too young to really be in love. They say that love's word, a word we've only heard But can't begin to know the meaning of. And yet, we're not too young to know This love will last tho years may go. And then, someday they may recall We were not too young at all.
Tie a yellow ribbon 'round the ole oak tree |
I'm comin' home, I've done my time, now I've got to know what is and isn't mine. If you received my letter tellin' you I'd soon be free, then you'll know just what do if you still want me, if you still want me. Tie a yellow ribbon round the ole pak tree, it's been three long years, do you still want me? If I don't see a ribbon round the ole oak tree I'll stay on the bus, forget about us, put the blame on me, if I don't see a yellow ribbon round the ole oak tree Bus driver please look for me, 'cause I couldn't bear to see what I might see. I'm really still in prison and my love she holds the key, a simple yellow ribbon's what I need to set me free, I wrote and told her please. Tie a yellow ribbon round the ole oak tree, it's been three long years. do you still want me? if I don't see a ribbon round the ole oak tree I'll stay on the bus, forget about us, put the blame on me, if I don't see a yellow ribbon round the ole oak tree Now the whole damn bus is cheering and I can't believe I see a hundred yellow ribbons round the ole oak tree.
Top of he world |
Such a feelin's comin' over me There is wonder in most everything I see Not a cloud in the sky Got the sun in my eyes And I won't be surprised if it's a dream Everything I want the world to be is now coming true especially for me And the reason is clear It's because you are here You're the nearest thing to heaven that I've seen ※ I'm on the top of the world lookin' down on creation and the only explanation I can find is the love that I've found ever since you've been around Your love's put me at the top of the world Something in the wind has learned my name And it's telling me that things are not the same In the leaves on the trees and the touch of the breeze there's a pleasin' sense of happiness for me There is only one wish on my mind When this day is through I hope that I will find that tomorrow will be just the same for you and me All I need will be mine if you are here ※ Repeat
Tea for two |
Picture me upon your knee With tea for two and two for tea, Just me for you and you for me alone No body near us to see us or hear us, No friends or relation on week end vacasions, We won't have it known, dear, That we own a telephon,dear, Day will break and I'm gonna wake And start to bake a sugar cake For you to take for all the boys to see. We will raise a family, A boy for you, and a girl for me, Can't you see how happy we would be?
They can't take that away from me |
The way you wear your hat The way you sip your tea The mem'ry of all that No, no! they can't take that away frome me! The way your smile just beams the way you sing off key The way you haunt my dreams No no! they can't take that away frome me We may never, never meet again On the bumpy road to love, Still I'll always, always keep the mem'ry of The way you hold your knife The way we danced till three The way you've chang'd my life No, no! they can't take that away from me No! they can't take that away from me
Till |
Till the moon deserts the sky Till all the seas run dry Till then I'll worship you Till the tropic sun grows cold Till this young world grows old My darling I'll adore you, You are my reason to live All I own I would give just to have you adore me. Till the rivers flow up stream Till lovers cease to dream till then, I'm yours, be mine
Taking a chance on love |
Here I go again I hear those trumpets blow again All aglow again taking a chance on love Here I slide again about to take that ride again Starryeyed again take a chance on love. I thought that cards were a frameup I never would try But now I'm taking the game up and the ace of hearts is high Things are mending now I see a rainbow blending now We'll have our happy ending now taking achance on love. Here I come again I'm gona make things hum again Acting dumb again taking a chance on love Here I stand again about to beat the band again Feeling grand again taking a chance on love. I never dreamed in my slumbers and bets were taboo But now I'm playing the numbers on a little dream for two Weding in again I'm leadin' with my chin again I'm startin' out to win again taking a chance on love. Here I slip again about to take that tip again Got my grip again taking a chance on love Now I prove again that I can make life move again In the groove again taking a chance on love. I walk around with a horseshoe in clover I lie And brother rabbit of course you better kiss your foot goodbye On the ball again I'm ridin' for a fall again I'm gonna give my all again taking a chance on love.

Till the moon deserts the sky Till all the seas run dry Till then I'll worship you Till the tropic sun grows cold Till this young world grows old My darling I'll adore you, You are my reason to live All I own I would give just to have you adore me.
