Tears And Roses
Composer(s): Hank Hunter - Dick Heard
Performer(s): Al Martino; George Morgan



Tears and roses, tears and roses
Remind me that we're through but I'm still in love with you
(Tears and roses, tears and roses)

Today I passed a flower shop and in the window there
Were dozens of red roses like the ones you used to wear
I walked on by and when I saw a little baby cry
I thought about the tears that fell the day you said "Goodbye"

Tears and roses, tears and roses
Remind me that we're through but I'm still in love with you
(Tears and roses, tears and roses)

I think about the good old days when we were so in love
And I was still the only one that you were dreamin' of
I'd send a million roses and my tears would fill the sea
If all those tears and roses could bring you back to me

Tears and roses, tears and roses
Remind me that we're through but I'm still in love with you
Remind me that we're through but I'm still in love with you
(Tears and roses, tears and roses)

My Favorite Brunette
Composer(s): Ray Evans; Jay Livingston
Performer(s): Bob Hope & Dorothy Lamour



Dorothy:
Bob:by Hope was a boy who liked girls with raven tresses
He thought every girl just for him was saving yesses
He figured that the duty of each brunette beauty
Was to run to him for necking
At his every bark and beckon

Here comes this lonesome male
And here's his pitaful tale
He says

Bob:
I will date Rosie 'cause Rosie is cosy
And she's my favourite brunette

Dorothy:
But rosie this summer 
Was dating the plumber

Bob:
She turned out ot be all wet
I'll make Rosita, that sweet senorita
My brand new favourite brunette

Dorothy:
Bu this hot-to-molly
Was tickling Charlie
By shaking her castanets 

Bob:
Dark-haired Tilly was silly over Willy
Lily and Billy were Kind of Jack and Jilly

Dorothy:
So he tried a redhead
But she was a dead head

Bob:
And what can you do with a blonde?

I tried using my noodle 
and bought a black poodle

Dorothy:
His brand new favourite brunette

Bob:
But she loves a spanail
Name of Danial

Dorothy:
That was the pay off 
and though he was way off
He hasn't stopped trying yet
He was last seen in Tibet
You bet,chasing another brunette

Bob:
I got pally with Sally May O'Malley
Patting and pinching 
right in her mothers kitchen
Again I had to lose out
Someone blew the fuse out
What can you do in the dark
Tell me, how about you babe?
Will you be my new babe?
My brand new favourite brunette?

Dorothy:
Uh Ah 
the kind of man that I demand
Must have a lot at his command 

Bob:
I'll learn a lot of parlour tricks
And get advice from Dorothy: Dicks

Dorothy:
And would you buy me diamond rings? 
and little thousand dollar things?

Bob:

To go with every pair of slacks

My name you will find on the tail of my shirt
I'm a Tennessee hustler, never do worse
I kiss a different woman with the fall of each dew
Always a-singing these good woman blues

I've been playing music back in Tennessee
Lot of women there, Lord, they think the world of me
Memphis and Nashville, Chattanooga too
Always a-singing these good woman blues

Good woman blues, Lord, they never get me down
Too many women always around
I strike like the lightning and bringing good news
Always a-singing these good woman blues

Well a woman in Dallas, she's on my mind
Texas women are the tie-me-down kind
I just keep on walking with my traveling shoes
Always singing these good woman blues

Well sunny California, I can hear you call
Got more women there than a freight train can haul
Your warm red wine and your sun is good news
Always a-singing these good woman blues

Good woman blues,Lord, they never get me down
Too many women always around
I strike like the lightning and bringing good news
Always a-singing these good woman blues

Guess this could be the end
Think you've really gone this time
I won't get no more of your love
I should have gone red besides
Because the tears that you don't see
Are the tears behind my eyes
Tears that I can't disguise, so well
So well from you

Got to get to you again
If it takes up the whole day long
Got to make it right with you
Got to right all them wrongs
Because the tears that you don't see
Are the tears behind my eyes
Tears I can't disguise, so well
So well from you

Loving is what you did not get from me
Loving is what you're gonna get now
Just you wait
Wait and see

Got to get to you again
If it takes up the whole day long
Got to make it right with you
Got to right all them wrongs
'Cause the tears that you don't see
Are the tears behind my eyes
Tears I can't disguise, so well
So well from you

Loving is what you did not get from me
Loving is what you're gonna get now
Just you wait
Wait and see, yeah

Loving is what you did not get from me
Loving is what you're gonna get now, babe
Just you wait
Wait and see

Got to get to you again
If it takes up the whole day long
Got to make it right with you
Got to right all them wrongs
But the tears that you don't see
Are the tears behind my eyes
The tears I can't disguise, so well
So well from you, babe

Ich liebe Rosen und Wiesen und Kinder
Mag Kupferkessel auf Feuer nicht minder
Muss beim Zubettgeh'n den Abendstern seh'n
Liegen im weichen Bett finde ich schön

Ich liebe Ponys und mag Apfelstrudeln
Cremetorten, Kirschtorten, Schnitzel mit Nudeln
Wildgänse fliegend hoch über den Seen
Tiere im Wald und Feld finde ich schön

Ganz weiße Kleider mit blauseid'nen Schuhen
Schneeflocken, die auf den Zweigen sich ruhen
Silberne Winter und Berge in Höh'n
Sonnige Frühlingstag' finde ich schön

Wenn der Hund bellt und ist bissig
und ich bin verzagt
Ganz einfach sofort wird mein Kummer vergeh'n
Ich denke an das was schön

I love the colourful clothes she wears
And the way the sunlight plays upon her hair
I hear the sound of a gentle word
On the wind that lifts her perfume through the air

I'm picking' up good vibrations

Close my eyes
She's somehow closer now
Softly smile, I know she must be kind
When I look in her eyes
She goes with me to a blossom world

I'm picking' up good vibrations
She's giving me excitations
I'm picking' up good vibrations
(Oom bop, bop good vibrations)
She's giving me excitations

Tears
Performer(s): Sam Ash; Rudy Vallee; Ken Dodd



Tears for souvenirs are all you've left me 
Memories of a love you never meant 
I just can't believe you could forget me 
After all those happy hours we spent together 

Tears have been my only consolation 
But tears can't mend a broken heart I must confess 
Let's forgive and forget 
Turn our tears of regret 
Once more to tears of happiness 

Tears have been my only consolation 
But tears can't mend a broken heart I must confess 
Let's forgive and forget 
Turn our tears of regret 
Once more to tears of happiness 

Let's forgive and forget 
Turn our tears of regret 
Once more to tears of happiness

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things
Cream colored ponies and crisp apple streudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things
Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into springs
These are a few of my favorite things
When the dog bites, when the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad

Tearoom Tango
Performer(s): Wim Sonneveld



En hier dames en heren, hier komt een liefdesgeschiedenis uit Den Haag, getiteld "Tearoom Tango"

Toen ik jou de roze tearoom langzaam binnenschrijden zag 
Met je kaalgesleten bontjas en je arrogante lach 
Een afschuwelijk beeld van honger en ellende 
Vroeg ik me af hoe ik jou in 's hemelsnaam herkende 
Maar toen iedereen jou nakeek met die blik van oh-la-la 
Dat moet vroeger iets geweest zijn van comme ça en ga maar na 
En de ober zelfs een buiging voor je maakte 
Toen voelde ik dat mijn verbittering ontwaakte 
En terwijl je stilstond bij 't gebak 
Was ik de jongen weer wiens jongenshartje brak 

Je hebt me belazerd, je hebt me bedonderd 
En wat me nu na al die jaren nog verwondert 
Dat ik dat nooit vergeten zal al word ik honderd 
Je hebt me belazerd, je hebt me bedonderd

't Zal zo'n dertig jaar geleden zijn dat ik jou stil aanbad 
En in deze zelfde tearoom steeds op jou te wachten zat 
En wanneer je dan na uren was gekomen 
Noemde 'k jou de schone diva van m'n dromen 
Na een jaar geheime liefde zei 'k nog steeds eerbiedig "u" 
En ik mocht je af en toe eens kussen achter 't menu 
Verder mocht ik niks 't was verdomd een schijntje 
Je hield me steeds met je belofte aan 't lijntje 
Tot ik plotseling ontdekte dat 
Jij wel twintig and're tearoom-lovers had 

Je hebt me belazerd, je hebt me bedonderd 
En wat me nu na al die jaren nog verwondert 
Dat ik dat nooit vergeten zal al word ik honderd 
Je hebt me belazerd, je hebt me bedonderd

En nu zit je aan een tafeltje en vraagt me "mag ik thee" 
En je attakeert m'n taartjes en wat kijk je weer gedwee 
En je fluistert "jongen, haal me uit de nesten 
Want het is of heel de wereld me wil pesten" 
Je bent veel te dik gepoeierd en de mot zit in je hoed 
En ik zie ook dat je huilt zoals een slecht actrice doet 
Je pikt weer een sigaret en vraagt een vuurtje 
En je zegt achter je zevende likeurtje 
"Ach, je weet dat ik jou de liefste vond 
Geef me wat geld, boy, want ik zit vreselijk aan de grond" 
Dan zeg ik: "zit jij aan de grond?" 

Da's heel belazerd, da's reuze bedonderd 
Dat ik de liefste was is iets dat mij verwondert 
Vraag het die anderen maar, je had 'r minstens honderd 
Ober, ober, goedemiddag 
Deze dame hier, ober, wou even alles afrekenen 
Ja, 'k ben belazerd 

My Favorite Dream
Composer(s): Barry Mann; Cynthia Weil
Performer(s): Jan & Dean



Each time I call you up, you're always free 
You break the dates you've got just to be with me 
Gee whiz, that's not the way it is 
But that's my favorite dream 

You tell me I'm the type you can't resist 
Your lips are always there, ready to be kissed 
Gee whiz, that's not the way it is 
But that's my favorite dream 

(x2): 
We spend each night together 
But you don't even know 
'Cause in spite of all my dreams 
Somehow it seems 
I'd never even dare to say hello 
But I believe my dreams may still come true 
Someday you're gonna show that you love me too 
Gee whiz, that's not the way it is 
But that's my favorite dream 

Gee whiz, that's not the way it is 
But that's my favorite dream

Teardrops Will Fall
Composer(s): Dickey Doo - Marion Smith
First release by: Dickey Doo & The Don'ts - 1958
Covered by multiple other artists



I read your letter and tears filled my eyes 
All of your promises fading, was nothing but lies 
So I turned your photograph over, face to the wall 
And when I dim the lights in my room tonight 
Teardrops will fall 

Teardrops will fall tonight 
Tears I can't hide 
Tears that I tried to keep 
Deep down inside 
Tears fall, a love that's gone 
Beyond recall 
And when I dim the lights in my room tonight 
Teardrops will fall 

I'm gonna pray tonight, baby 
Hoping you will hear 
Maybe you'll right the wrong, now 
And dry each tear 
I'll sit alone tonight hoping you will call 
And when I dim the lights in my room tonight 
Teardrops will fall 

My Father's Eyes
Composer(s): Livingston Taylor
Performer(s): Livingston Taylor



My father stands before me
In a place that's his alone
I'm guided to the future
I have the world to own
I stand up and I'm counted
A thousand miles from home
Why can I see forever
In my father's eyes?

My father sits before me
His hands upon his chin
His fingers touch his lips
Until my story ends.
Patiently we get it straight
The whos, the whens, the whys...
Truth ever protected
In my father's eyes

My father's eyes...
My father's hands...
Oh, Daddy quickly pick me up
When will I be a man?
When will I live long enough
To make somebody fly?
When will the mirror show me
My father's eyes?

My father's resting in a chair
In a long, cold Winter sun
He falls into a restless sleep
Still itching for the run
The arms are thin
And the movement slow
But there'll be one more try
Strength has another measure
In my father's eyes

My father's eyes
My father's hands
Oh, Daddy quickly pick me up
When will I be a man?
When will I live long enough
To make somebody fly?
When will the mirror show me
My father's eyes?

Good Times Bad Times

Performer(s): Led Zeppelin;
and various other artists



In the days of my youth
I was told what it was to be a man
Now I've reached the age
I've tried to do all those things the best I can
No matter how I try
I find my way to do the same old jam

Good Times, Bad Times
You know I had my share
When my woman left home
With a brown eyed man
Well, I still don't seem to care

Sixteen: I fell in love
With a girl as sweet as could be
Only took a couple of days
Till she was rid of me
She swore that she would be all mine
And love me till the end
When I whispered in her ear
I lost another friend

Good Times, Bad Times
You know I had my share
When my woman left home
With a brown eyed man
Well, I still don't seem to care

I know what it means to be alone
I sure do wish I was at home
I don't care what the neighbors say
I'm gonna love you each and every day
You can feel the beat within my hear.
Realize, sweet babe, we aint't ever gonna part

My Father's Eyes
Composer(s): Eric Clapton
Performer(s): Eric Clapton;
Phil Driscoll; Steve Fishell



Sailing down behind the sun
Waiting for my prince to come
Praying for the healing rain
To restore my soul again

Just a toerag on the run
How did I get here?
What have I done?
When will all my hopes arise?
How will I know him?
When I look in my father's eyes
My father's eyes
When I look in my father's eyes
My father's eyes

Then the light begins to shine
And I hear those ancient lullabies
And as I watch this seedling grow
Feel my heart start to overflow

Where do I find the words to say?
How do I teach him?
What do we play?
Bit by bit, I've realized
That's when I need them
That's when I need my father's eyes
My father's eyes
That's when I need my father's eyes
My father's eyes

Then the jagged edge appears
Through the distant clouds of tears
I'm like a bridge that was washed away
My foundations were made of clay

As my soul slides down to die
How could I lose him?
What did I try?
Bit by bit, I've realized
That he was here with me
I looked into my father's eyes
My father's eyes
I looked into my father's eyes
My father's eyes

My father's eyes
My father's eyes
I looked into my father's eyes
My father's eyes

Teardrops
Composer(s): George Harrison
Performer(s): George Harrison



Teardrops - I've had my share of crying buckets full of
Teardrops - so hard to take - I got a soaking with those
Teardrops - and it feels like I have taken over from the rain

In the heart of the lonely man
In and out of love more often where most others can
He walks the streets like the losers in some lovers' game
He talks so sweet but the news is always much the same

Teardrops - I've had my share of crying buckets full of
Teardrops - so hard to take - I got a soaking with those
Teardrops - and it feels like I have taken over from the rain

In the eyes of the lonely one
Everything is cold and hopeless that he looks upon
He needs a friend a lover who can comfort him
His deeds offend he knows that he has brought on him

Teardrops - I've had my share of crying buckets full of
Teardrops - so hard to take - I got a soaking with those
Teardrops - and it feels like I have taken over from the rain

My Father
Composer(s): Judy Collins
Originally performed by: Judy Collins
Covered by various other artists



My father always promised me
That we would live in France
We'd go boating on the Seine
And I would learn to dance

We lived in Ohio then
He worked in the mines
On his dreams like boats
We knew we would sail in time

All my sisters soon were gone
To Denver and Cheyenne
Marrying their grownup dreams
The lilacs and the man

I stayed behind the youngest still
Only danced alone
The colors of my father's dreams
Faded without a sound

And I live in Paris now
My children dance and dream
Hearing the ways of a miner's life
In words they've never seen

I sail my memories of home
Like boats across the Seine
And watch the Paris sun
As it sets in my father's eyes again

My father always promised us
That we would live in France
We'd go boating on the Seine
And I would learn to dance

I sail my memories of home
Like boats across the Seine
And watch the Paris sun
As it sets in my father's eyes again
