All The Love In The World Composer(s): Barry Gibb Performer(s): Dionne Warwick
In your eyes I see only one - find me the place for us That's where I belong There we rise - your glory and mine Your pain is over now I make you shine - still believing All the love in the world won't take me away from you
My love is stronger I am what you make me All the love in the world won't take you away from me
In all my wonder I forever lay down here with you I find when love slips away reach out for all you can Before it's too late there you fly returnin' to me Out of your darkest nights I stand alone - still believing All the love in the world won't take me away from you
My love is stronger I forever lay down here with you My love is true all your darkest nights - I stand alone - still believing All the love in the world won't take me away from you
My love is stronger I forever lay down here with you All the love in the world won't take me away from you
I walked in There sat Slim Cleaning up his memory With some sapphire gin Mr. Paine grabbed my arm Pulled me aside And said, kid are you ready for the wild ride
I looked up There she stood I said, if you didn't look so great I'd say you look good Ah, she took her hand Ran it up my thigh And said, cowboy you ready for the wild ride
Come on now junior take the wild ride See can you make it on the wild ride Don't try no shakin' on the wild ride 'Cause things start breakin' on the wild ride
Layin' on the highway I saw my mind In tiny little pieces Thrown from side to side My heart was shattered Along with my pride Guess you can't keep 'em on the wild ride
Come on now junior take the wild ride See can you make it on the wild ride Don't try no shakin' on the wild ride 'Cause things start breakin' on the wild ride
I was crawlin' 'cross the floor I was tryin' to leave When I felt something tuggin' what was Left of my sleeve I heard a little voice with a Gold-plated vibe Say, I bought a ticket for the wild ride
Come on now junior take the wild ride See can you make it on the wild ride Don't try no shakin' on the wild ride We might just break it on the wild ride
Come on now junior take the wild ride See can you make it on the wild ride Don't try no shakin' on the wild ride We might just break it on the wild ride
Come on, Come Take me on a wild ride See can you make me on the wild ride Come on and shake me on the wild ride You might just break me on the wild ride
All The Love I Have Inside Composer(s): Chris de Burgh Performer(s): Chris de Burgh
When I wake up in the morning she is there With her sleepy smile and a long night of windy hair And when I hold her close beside me Well it feels so good That I'd like to stay here all day long If there's a way that I could
And when we go downstairs and start off onto the day Just one more cup of coffee, and I'm on my way We may not have perfection But we're halfway there And I know it's sentimental But I just wanted to say
That all the love I have inside me is for you All the love I have inside me is for you All the love I have inside me is for you
And when I've had a heavy day and I'm going home She gives me time if she sees I want to be alone Ah but when the evening's over And we go to bed Here comes the same old feeling It's like a song in my head
Well all the love I have inside me is for you All the love I have inside me is for you All the love I have inside me is for you Here's my love song to you, you...
Change your life wild one Change your life Make it strong Change your life wild one Sing your own song
Now Now that the dark has come And the virgin green was made unclean By the foolish one Now Everyone has to pay And the more that we resist the more the blindness stays Yeah the more that we resist the more the blindness stays

All The Gold In California Composer(s): Larry Gatlin Performer(s): Larry Gatlin & The Gatlin Brothers Band
All the gold in California Is in a bank in the middle of Beverly Hills In somebody elses name So if you're dreaming about California It dont matter at all where you've played before California's a brand new game
Trying to be a hero, winding up a zero Can scar a man forever right down to your soul Living on the spotlight can kill a man outright 'Cause everything that glitters is not gold
All the gold in California Is in a bank in the middle of Beverly Hills In somebody elses name So if you're dreaming about California It dont matter at all where you've played before California's a brand new game
Wild Night Composer(s): Van Morrison Performer(s): Van Morrison; and various other artists
As you brush your shoes, you stand before your mirror And you comb your hair, grab your coat and hat
And you walk the streets trying to remember, ee-yea All those wild nights breeze through your mind
And every thing looks so complete When you're walking down on the streets And the wind, it catches your feet Sets you flying, crying
Ooh ooh-ooh wee, wild night, is calling Ooh ooh-ooh wee, wild night, is calling
All the girls walk by, dressed up for each other And the boys, do the boogie-woogie On the corner of the stree-ee-eet
And the people passing by, just stare with wild wonder, yea And inside the juke box roars just like thunder
And every thing looks so complete When you're walking down on the streets And the wind, it catches your feet Sets you flying, crying
Wi-i-i-ild night, is calling The wi-i-ild night a-is calling C'mon out and dance, c'mon out and dance C'mon out and make romance, c'mon out and dance C'mon out and dance, c'mon out and make romance
Wild Montana Skies Composer(s): John Denver Performer(s): John Denver; Francesca; Emmylou Harris
He was born in the Bitteroot Valley in the early morning rain Wild geese over the water, heading north and home again Bringing a warm wind from the south, bringing the first taste of the spring His mother took him to her breast, and softly she did sing Oh Montana, give this child a home Give him the love of a good family and a woman of his own Give him a fire in his heart, give him a light in his eyes give him the wild wind for a brother and the wild Montana Skies
His mother died that summer and he never learned to cry He never knew his father and he never did ask why He never knew the answers that would make an easy way but he learned to know the wilderness and to be a man that way His mother's brother took him in to his family and his home gave him a hand that he could lean on and a strength to call his own And he learned to be a farmer, and he learned to love the land and he learned to read the seasons and he learned to make a stand Oh Montana, give this child a home Give him the love of a good family and a woman of his own Give him a fire in his heart, give him a light in his eyes give him the wild wind for a brother and the wild Montana Skies
On the eve of his 2lst birthday, he set out on his own He was 30 years and running when he found his way back home Riding a storm across the mountains and an aching in his heart said he came to turn the pages and to make a brand new start Now he never told a story of the time that he was gone Some say he was a lawyer, some say he was a John There was something in the city that he said he couldn't breathe there was something in the country that he said he couldn't leave Now some say he was crazy, some are glad hes gone Some of us will miss him and try to carry on giving a voice to the forest, giving a voice to the dawn Giving a voice to the wilderness and the land that he lived on Oh Montana, give this child a home Give him the love of a good family and a woman of his own Give him a fire in his heart, give him a light in his eyes give him the wild wind for a brother and the wild Montana Skies Oh Montana, give this child a home Give him the love of a good family and a woman of his own Give him a fire in his heart, give him a light in his eyes give him the wild wind for a brother and the wild Montana Skies
All The Girls Love Alice Composer(s): Elton John - Bernie Taupin Performer(s): Elton John
Raised to be a lady by the golden rule Alice was the spawn of a public school With a double barrel name in the back of her brain And a simple case of mummy-doesnt-love-me blues
Reality it seems was just a dream She couldnt get it on with the boys on the scene But what do you expect from a chick whos just sixteen And hey, hey, hey, you know what I mean
All the young girls love alice Tender young alice they say Come over and see me Come over and please me Alice its my turn today
All the young girls love alice Tender young alice they say If I give you my number Will you promise to call me Wait till my husbands away
Poor little darling with a chip out of her heart Its like acting in a movie when you got the wrong part Getting your kicks in another girls bed And it was only last tuesday they found you in the subway dead
And who could you call your friends down in soho One or two middle-aged dykes in a go-go And what do you expect from a sixteen year old yo-yo And hey, hey, hey, oh dont you know
Wild Is The Wind Composer(s): Dimitri Tiomkin; Ned Washington Performer(s): Johnny Mathis

You touch me I hear the sound of mandolins You kiss me With your kiss my life begins You're Spring to me All things to me Don't you know You're life itself!
Like the leaf Clings to the tree Oh my darling cling to me For we're like creatures of the wind And wild is the wind Wild is the wind
You touch me I hear the sound of mandolins You kiss me With your kiss my life begins You're Spring to me All things to me Don't you know You're life itself!
Like the leaf Clings to the tree Oh my darling cling to me For we're like creatures of the wind And wild is the wind Wild is the wind, wild is the wind Wild is the wind, wild is the wind

All The Best Composer(s): John Prine First release by: John Prine - 1991 Covered by multiple other artists
I wish you love and happiness I guess I wish you all the best I wish you dont do like I do And ever fall in love with someone like you 'Cause if you fell just like I did Youd probably walk around the block like a little kid But kids dont know they can only guess How hard it is to wish you happiness
I guess that love is like a Christmas card You decorate a tree you throw it in the yard It decays and dies and the snowmen melt Well I once knew love I knew how love felt Yeah I knew love love knew me And when I walked love walked with me And I got no hate and I got no pride Well I got so much love that I cannot hide
Say you drive a Chevy say you drive a Ford You say you drive around the town till you just get bored Then you change your mind for something else to do And your heart gets bored with your mind and it changes you Well its a doggone shame and its an awful mess I wish you love I wish you happiness I wish you love I wish you happiness I guess I wish you all the best
Wild In The Country Composer(s): George Wise; Hugo Peretti; Luigi Creatore Performer(s): Elvis Presley
A rose grows wild in the country A tree grows tall as the sky The wind blows wild in the country And part of the wild, wild country, am I Wild, wild, like the deer and the dove Wild and free is this land that I love
A dream grows wild in the country A love grows tall as the sky A heart beats wild in the country And here with a dream in my heart Part of the wild, wild country, am I
All That Meat And No Potatoes Composer(s): Ed Kirkeby - Fats Waller Performer(s): Fats Waller and multiple other artists
A man works hard, then comes on home Expects to find stew with that fine ham bone He opens the door then start to lookin' Says, "Woman, what's this stuff you're cookin'?"
All that meat, and no potatoes Just ain't right, like green tomatoes Yeah, I'm waiting, palpatatin' But all that meat, and no potatoes
All that meat, and no potatoes All that food, to the alligators, yeah Hold me steady, I am ready With all that meat and no potatoes
I don't think that peas are bad With me, most anything goes I look in the pot, I'm fit to fight 'Cause woman, you know that mess ain't right
All that meat, and no potatoes Just ain't right, like green tomatoes Yes, I'm steamin', I'm really screamin' All that meat and no potatoes
Wild Horses Composer(s): Mick Jagger; Keith Richards Performer(s): The Rolling Stones
Childhood living is easy to do The things you wanted I bought them for you Graceless lady you know who I am You know I can't let you slide through my hands
Wild horses couldn't drag me away Wild, wild horses, couldn't drag me away
I watched you suffer a dull aching pain Now you decided to show me the same No sweeping exits or offstage lines Could make me feel bitter or treat you unkind
Wild horses couldn't drag me away Wild, wild horses, couldn't drag me away
I know I dreamed you a sin and a lie I have my freedom but I don't have much time Faith has been broken, tears must be cried Let's do some living after we die
Wild horses couldn't drag me away Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them some day
Wild horses couldn't drag me away Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them some day
The love in you and the love in me, is all that matters All the rest is vanity That time will shatter The only treasure in the life we live, is the measure of the love we give All that matters in the end will be The love in you and the love in me, that's all that matters
Every heart must change it's shape To fit the space a lifetime makes Some regrets and some mistakes We touch happiness but we can't hold her Feelings come and then disappear I know the laughter, I've cried those tears I should know better after all these years But I'm no wiser, I'm just older
It's all a question of priority We've got so much that we just don't need But if it ain't got love then it's luxury We can learn to live without it
Wild Horses Composer(s): Roy Freeland; Gino Vannelli Performer(s): Gino Vannelli
As the sun goes down on the arizona plain and the wind whistles by like a runaway train hey hey hey it's a beautiful thing well it's me and you and a flatbed truck my heart kicking over like a whitetail buck hey hey hey in the middle of spring
You can cut me deep you can cut me down you can cut me loose don't you know it's okay you can kick and scream you can slap my face you can set my wheels on a high speed chase hey no matter what you do

As the sky falls down from the midnight blue spittin' like bullets on a hot tin roof hey hey hey it's a beautiful sound well it's me and you in a flatbed truck in a foot of mud just my luck hey hey hey a hundred miles out of town
You can call me a fool you can call me blind you can call it quits can't hear a word you say cause if I had you once I'm gonna have you twice I'm gonna follow my heart instead of good advice hey no matter what you do
Wild horses could not drag me away from you Wild horses could not drag me away from you
