Ain't There Anyone Here For Love? Composer(s): Hoagy Carmichael - Harold Adamson Performer(s): Jane Russell; Klea Blackhurst
I can't play tennis My golf's a menace I just can't do the Australian crawl And I'm no better at volleyball Ain't there anyone here for love, sweet love Ain't there anyone here for love?
I'm apathetic and non-athletic Can't keep up in a marathon I need some shoulder to lean upon And a couple of arms to hold me Ain't there anyone here for love?
I'm not in condition to wrestle I've never trained in a gym Show me a man who can nestle And I'll pin a medal on him
I need some chappy To make me happy And he don't need to be Hercules Don't anyone know about birds and bees Ain't there anyone here for love, sweet love Ain't there anyone here for love?
When The Thought Of You Catches Up With Me Composer(s): David Ball Performer(s): David Ball
It can happen any moment Without reason or rhyme It might be right around the corner Or it'll come up from behind A picture that I thought would fade That I still clearly see When the thought of you catches up with me
It can happen on a Sunday drive The sky above a shade of blue Headin' down some lonesome highway Then you come into view Mile after mile goes by But you're all I see When the thought of you catches up with me
When the thought of you comes to mind It'll carry me away to a better place in time
It can happen in the dead of night Or any day of the week Sometimes you'll come find me When I'm in bed asleep And I'll have that dream about you And I sure love what I see When the thought of you catches up with me

When The Sun Goes Down In Romany (My Heart Goes Roaming Back To You)
When The Sun Goes Down In Romany (My Heart Goes Roaming Back To You) Composer(s): Sam M. Lewis; Joe Young; Bert Grant
Dearie, dearie Far across the deep blue sea Dearie, dearie Do you ever think of me? When the Autumn leaves are turning My thoughts turn to home Is there still a love light burning Far across the foam? Dearie, dearie Tell me, are we both alone?
Lonely, lonely Think how lonely I must be Lonely, lonely No one seems to pity me I can see the corn a swaying In the candle light Staying where I left you praying "Lead his footsteps right" Lonely, lonely, say a pray'r for me tonight
When the sun goes down in Romany My heart goes roaming back to you Through the dells the chapel bells are calling There's a grief for every leaf that's falling Like a tipsy gypsy I just wandered Far from all the loved ones that I knew But dearie When the sun goes down in Romany My heart goes roaming back to you
Ain't That Peculiar Composer(s): Smokey Robinson - Marvin Tarplin - Robert Rogers - Warren Moore First release by: Marvin Gaye - 1966 Covered by multiple other artists
Honey you do me wrong but still i'm crazy about you Stay away too long and i can't do without you Every chance you get you seem to hurt me more and more But each hurt makes my love stronger than before I know flowers go through rain But how can love go through pain
Ain't that peculiar A peculiar ality Ain't that peculiar baby Peculiar as can be
You tell me lies that should be obvious to me I've been so much in love with you baby til i don't wanna see That things you do and say are designed to make me blue It's a dog gone shame my love for you makes all Your lies seem true But if the truth makes love last longer Why do lies make my love stronger
Ain't that peculiar A peculiar ality Ain't that peculiar baby Peculiar as can be
I cried so much just like a child thats lost its home Maybe baby you think these tears i cry are tears of joy A child can cry so much until you do everything they say But unlike a child my tears don't help me to get my way I know love can last through years But how can love last through tears
Ain't that peculiar A peculiar ality Ain't that peculiar baby Peculiar as can be
When The Sun Comes Out
Composer(s): Harold Arlen; Ted Koehler
First release by: Jimmy Dorsey & His Orch.
Covered by multiple other artists
When the sun comes out
And that rain stops beatin' on my windowpane
When the sun comes out
There'll be bluebirds 'round my door
Singin' like they did before
That old storm broke out
And my man walked off and left me in the rain
Though he's gone, I doubt
If he'll stay away for good
I'd stop living if he should
Love is funny
It's not always peaches, cream and honey
Just when everything looked bright and sunny
Suddenly the cyclone came
I'll never be the same
Till that sun comes out
And that rain stops beatin' on my windowpane
If my heart holds out
Let it rain and let it pour
It may not be long before
There's a knockin' at my door
Then you'll know the one I love walked in
When the sun comes out
When The Snow Is On The Roses (Adapted from: Der Weg Ins Land Der Liebe) Composer(s): Ernst Bader; Larry Kusik; James Last; Eddie Snyder Performer(s): Ed Ames and various other artists
Now the golden sun can see us kiss Every summer day we'll love like this
When the snow is on the roses When the bluebird's flown away In my arms we'll both remember All the love we shared today
As we walk along the silvery shore Vows we make will last forever more
When the snow is on the roses When the summer stars are gone One more summer will be over But our love will still go on
When the snow is on the roses When the bluebird's flown away In my arms we'll both remember All the love we shared today All the love we shared today

When The Ship Comes In Title in Czech: Az Se Má Lod Zpátky Vrátí Composer(s): Bob Dylan Performer(s): The Hollies; and various other artists
Oh the time will come up When the winds will stop And the breeze will cease to be a breezin' Like the stillness in the wind For the hurricane begins The hour when the ship comes in
Oh the seas will split And the ship will hit And the shoreline sands will be shaken Then the tide will sound and the wind will pound And the morning will be breakin'
Oh the fishes will laugh As they swim out of the path And the seagulls they'll be smilin' And the rocks on the sand Will proudly stand The hour that the ship comes in
And the words they use For to get the ship confused Will not be understood as they are spoken For the chains of the sea Will have busted in the night And be buried at the bottom of the ocean
Oh the seas will split And the ship will hit And the shoreline sands will be shaken Then the tide will sound and the wind will pound And the morning will be breakin'
A song will lift as the main sail shifts And the boat drifts onto the shoreline And the sun will respect every face on the deck The hour when the ship comes in Then the sands will roll out a carpet of gold For your weary toes to be a touchin' And the ships wise men will remind you once again That the whole wide world is watchin'

When The Roses Bloom Again Composer(s): Will D. Cobb; Gus Edwards Performer(s): Jeff Tweedy; and various other artists
He was roaming in the gloaming where the roses were in bloom A soldier, with his sweetheart, brave and true And their hearts were filled with sorrow for their thoughts were of tomorrow As she pinned a rose upon his coat of blue "Do not ask me love to linger, for you know not what to say Before duty calls your sweetheart's name again But your heart need not be sighing; if I be among the dying I'll be with you when the roses bloom again"
When the roses bloom again beside the river And the mocking bird has sung her sweet refrain In the days of Auld Lang Syne, I'll be with you sweetheart mine I'll be with you when the roses bloom again
In the rattle of the battle came a whisper soft and low From a soldier who had fallen in the fray "I am dying, I am dying and I know that I must go But I want to tell you before I pass away There's a far and distant river where the roses are in bloom And a sweetheart who is waitng there for me It is there I pray you take me I've been faithful, don't forsake me I'll be with her when the roses bloom again"
