Until you fall in love a love songs just another tune A lovers moon in June is just another moon Until you fall in love the nights all seem to be the same There is no lovers lane for you But when love comes to find you Youre in a world apart Leave loneliness behind you When heavens in your heart Youll never hear the bluebird singing in the sky above Youll never know that thrill until you fall in love

Eagle When She Flies Composer(s): Dolly Parton
Performer(s): Dolly Parton
and multiple other artists
She's been there, God knows, she's been there She has seen and done it all She's a woman, she knows how to Dish it out or take it all Her heart's as soft as feathers Still she weathers stormy skies And she's a sparrow when she's broken But she's an eagle when she flies
A kaleidoscope of colors You can toss her around and 'round You can keep her in your vision But you'll never keep her down She's a lover, she's a mother She's a friend and she's a wife And she's a sparrow when she's broken But she's an eagle when she flies
Gentle as the sweet magnolia Strong as steel, her faith and pride She's an everlasting shoulder She's the leaning post of life She hurts deep and when she weeps She's just as fragile as a child And she's a sparrow when she's broken But she's an eagle when she flies
She's a sparrow when she's broken But she's an eagle when she flies Oh, bless her, Lord She's an eagle when she flies

I Need Your Love Composer(s): Fred Sampson; Tom Scholz Performer(s): Boston
Cant help this feeling Cant help this feeling I cant believe its open for discussion Weve said our goodbyes Ive been a fool not to see the repercussions Youve had in my life Im at the point of no return Ive finally crossed the line Dont want to stop and watch the bridges burn cause I cant stand to see you stay behind
I need your love I want you every way I need your love Cant help this feeling coming back everyday
I stayed around hoping youd discover How much there was to lose I spelled it out, I led you to the water But youre too blind to choose I gave it everything and more to make it Ive waited for so long I saw the chance to run and had to take it But somethings missing and I know its wrong
I need your love I want you every way And I need your love Cant help this feeling coming back everyday
Ive passed the point of no return And all the tears have dried Dont want to stop and watch the bridges burn cause I keep wishing I was on your side
I need your love I want you every way And I need your love Cant help this feeling
I need your love I want you every way I need your love Cant help this feeling coming back everyday

I don't know how it started, I don't know what I did But there's a gal who's chasm' me who really flipped her lid I call her my eager beaver baby, ooh eager beaver baby Well what am I gonna do with that eager beaver baby of mine She's always there beside me, no matter where I stop She follows me at the movies, even to the barber shop I call her my eager heaver baby, ooh eager beaver baby Well what am I gonna do with that eager beaver baby of mine
She gets me in her parlor and switches off the light Before I know what's happened she's a-huggin' me so tight I call her my eager beaver baby, eager beaver baby Well what am I gonna do with that eager beaver baby of mine She loves to mess my hair up and loosen up my tie And when she starts a-kissin', I'm a real gone guy I call her my eager beaver baby, ooh eager beaver baby Well what am I gonna do with that eager beaver baby of mine
May the road rise up to meet you May the wind be always at your back May the sun shine warm upon your face And the rains fall soft upon your tracks And until, until we meet again May God hold you safely in the palm of His hand
May the hills come down to greet you May the rocks give shelter in the storm May the dust be soft beneath your feet And the dark give rest before the dawn And until, until we meet again May God hold you safely in the palm of His
In the palm of His hand In the palm of his hand in the palm of his hand Safely in the palm of his hand
May your life have many memories May your death be sweet and full of peace May your hope last an eternity And may your joy carry on and never cease And until, until we meet again May God hold you safely in the palm of His
And until, until we meet again May God hold you safely in the palm of His In the palm of His hand In the palm of his hand in the palm of his hand Safely in the palm of his hand In the palm of His hand In the palm of his hand in the palm of his hand Safely in the palm of his hand
I Need You To Turn To Italian Title: E Ho Bisogno Di Te - 1973 Composer(s): Elton John; Bernie Taupin First release by: Elton John - 1970 Covered by multiple other artists
Youre not a ship to carry my life Youre nailed to my love in many lonely nights I strayed from the cottages and found myself here But I need your love Your love protects my fear
And I wonder sometimes and I know Im unkind But I need you to turn to when I act so blind And I need you to turn to when I lose control But its my guardian angel who keeps out the cold
Did you think youll smile on Well, I said I knew that my reason for living was for loving you Were related in feeling of your high above Youre pure and your gentle with the grace of a dove
And I wonder sometimes and I know Im unkind But I need you to turn to when I act so blind And I need you to turn to when I lose control But its my guardian angel who keeps out the cold
And I wonder sometimes and I know Im unkind To my guardian angel who keeps out the cold
Only wish that I could say That this is rain in my eyes I only wish I could find the words To say just how I feel
To say just how I feel inside So please listen close 'Cause each word's a beat of my heart Someway somehow I'll find How to say what's on my mind Till then you'll have to read my eyes Looks like a blue day Only wish that I could say That this is rain in my eyes So please listen close 'Cause each word's a beat of my heart Each word's a beat of my heart
Traveling down the blue road Wondering, hardly waiting just to get back home again Winds are blowing down the blue road Too long a loser, soon he's gonna win
He's worked in wood, worked in steel, call him what you will Years can never outnumber the miles on his shoes Been a lover and a fighter, gambler and moonshiner Call him well-acquainted with the blues
Speak of oil fields, cottonfields, bright lights and city nights Think about most any place he may have lived or died There but now there's a lady who can turn back the miles Gentle as a summer morning air
Each Time You Break My Heart Composer(s): Madonna - Stephen Pate Bray
First release by: Nick Kamen - 1986
Covered by multiple other artists
Each time you break my heart
Each time you break my heart
I know how it feels to be the talk of the town
I'm not gonna let you go and run around
I need to know that you'll be true to me
'Cause that's the way it's got to be
Why can't you give your promise to me
Is love so blind that you cannot see
I'm trying hard not to walk out the door
Know that I, oh, know that I can't take no more
Each time you break my heart
I try to put my pride aside
Each time you break my heart
A little voice inside me cries
No matter what you do or say
I'm gonna love you, I'm gonna love you anyway
And if you're so sure that I'm not your kind
How come you can't just walk away
In the beginning we were nothing but glad
Those were the best days that we ever had
There's no compassion, all your warmth is gone
Tell me how, oh, how can I keep holding on
Each time you break my heart
I try to put my pride aside
Each time you break my heart
A little voice inside me cries
I see the look in your eyes
I know you're hurting inside
Let me try to make you love me again
I'll say that I knew you when
You were mine, you were mine
Each time, oh, yeah
In the beginning we were nothing but glad
Those were the best days that we ever had
There's no compassion, all your warmth is gone
Tell me how, oh, how can I keep holding on
I see the look in your eyes
I know you're hurting inside
Let me try to make you love me again
I'll say that I knew you when
You were mine, you were mine
Each time you break my heart
I try to put my pride aside
Each time you break my heart
A little voice inside me cries
Each time you break my heart again
Well I can say I knew you when / each time
You were mine
Break my heart, don't break my heart
Break my heart, don't break my heart...
Mama always reminds me that we're only passin' through The treasures of this world are not for us to hold on to She says the way we're headed Will take us where we're bound And we can not lay our journey down
Because all god's children need travelin' shoes To walk the road that's narrow but it's true We can' stop here we're just passin' through That's why all god's children need travelin' shoes
My bags are pack and waiting and I'm headed for the door The train Is at the station , got my ticket and I'll board The brakeman swings his lantern Lit with never ending love And mama I can't thank you near enough
Because all god's children need travelin' shoes To walk the road that's narrow but it's true We can' stop here we're just passin' through That's why all god's children need travelin' shoes
Because all god's children need travelin' shoes To walk the road that's narrow but it's true We can' stop here we're just passin' through That's why all god's children need travelin' shoes
We can't stop here we're just passin' through That's why all god's children need travelin' shoes

Each Time Composer(s): Jackie DeShannon
Performer(s): The Searchers
Each time you hurt me and desert me You swear you'll never do it again Oh each time I catch you lyin' I start cryin' You say "It's the last time" and then
Oh you say "Oh baby, everything's gonna be fine" And like a fool I keep forgivin' you each time
Each time I say I'll leave you, never see you You tell me you'll make it all up to me Oh each time you say "Let's try it just once more" 'Cause I'm all you're livin' for, you'll change, I'll see
Then you call me baby, everything's gonna be fine Then like a fool I keep forgivin' you each time
Wish that I felt just like I did before There was a time I could walk out the door But I can't go now though I know it's wrong 'Cause good or bad it's with you I belong
Then you say "Oh baby, everything's gonna be fine" No matter what you do, I keep forgivin' you Each time, each time, each time, each time
