Summer And Lightning
Composer(s): Jeff Lynne
Performer(s): Electric Light Orchestra



I have waited 
For your love 
For so long 
How do I go on? 
I have told you 
So many times 
It's no good 
You're treating me so wrong

Out there so far away 
Above the sky will say 
For you... 
Here it comes again 
It's all around me 
It must be magic 
Yeah, yeah, yeah

I can see you 
In my mind 
The lost time 
That you're saving 
I could reach out 
And touch you 
What can I do? 
The sun ain't shining

Out there so far away 
Above the sky will say 
For you... 
Only for you

Here it comes again (summer and lightning) 
It's all around me (summer and lightning) 
It must be magic (summer and lightning) 
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Here it comes again

Here it comes again (summer and lightning) 
It's all around me (summer and lightning) 
It must be magic (summer and lightning) 
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Here it comes again (summer and lightning) 
I can feel it (summer and lightning) 
It's all around me (summer and lightning) 
Yeah, yeah, yeah

You Gave Me Love
Composer(s): Claire Cloninger; Archie Jordan
Performer(s): B.J. Thomas



You gave me time when no one gave me time of day
You looked deep inside
while the rest of the world looked away
You smiled at me when there were just frowns everywhere
You gave me love when nobody gave me a prayer

Chorus:
That's why I call You Saviour ..... that's why I call You Friend
You touched my heart ..... 
You touched my soul
And helped me start all over again
That's why I love You, Jesus ..... that's why I'll always care
You gave me love when nobody gave me a prayer

You gave me laughter after I cried all my tears
You heard my dreams while the rest of the world closed it's ears
I looked in Your eyes, and I found the tenderness there
You gave me love when nobody gave me a prayer

Chorus:
That's why I call You Saviour ..... that's why I call You Friend
You touched my heart ..... 
You touched my soul
And helped me start all over again
That's why I love You, Jesus ..... that's why I'll always care
You gave me love when nobody gave me a prayer

That Sly Old Gentleman From Featherbed Lane
Composer(s): Johnny Burke - James V. Monaco
Performer(s): Bing Crosby



That sly old gentleman, from Featherbed Lane
He's watching you, he's peeking through your windowpane

He's sprinkled sand from the stars
That glistens and gleams
He'll sprinkle your eyes with dreams

He'll make your little heart so happy and gay
You'll ride a rocking horse along the Milky Way
Why stay awake? ... Better take that slumber train
With that sly old gentleman from Featherbed Lane...

You Gave Me A Mountain
Composer(s): Marty Robbins
Performer(s): Johnny Bush;
and various other artists



Born in the heat of the desert
My mother died givin' me life
Deprived of the love of a father
Blamed for the loss of his wife
You know Lord I've been in a prison
For something that I've never done
It's been one hill after another
And I've climbed them all one by one

Oh but this time Lord you gave me a mountain
A mountain you know I may never climb
It isn't just a hill any longer
You gave me a mountain this time

My woman got tired of the heartaches
Tired of the grief and the strife
So tired of working for nothing
Just tired of being my wife
She took my one ray of sunshine
She took my pride and my joy
She took my reason for living
She took my small baby boy

Yeah but this time Lord you gave me a mountain 
A mountain I may never climb
It isn't a hill any longer
You gave me a mountain this time
Yeah Lord, You gave me a mountain
Don't you know 
You gave me a mountain this time

Blame It On The Mistletoe
Composer(s): Toby Keith
Performer(s): Toby Keith; Eric Hancock



The middle of December ain't the time to be alone
It's just too close to Christmas and too far to go home
I ran into a friend of a friend, standing in the checkout line
She said, "I've spent too much already and there's gifts I just can't find"
I walked her home and when she opened up her door
Oh, I'm not sure what happened then, guess magic took it's course

Blame it on the mistletoe, 'cause what happened here nobody knows
How could something simple as a kiss change my holiday like this
And we held each other all night long, and we fell asleep to a Christmas song
Playin' on the radio, blame it on the mistletoe

I woke up, she was wrappin' gifts beneath the tree
She said, I know it's early, so I thought I'd let you sleep
Then she insisted I get up and take a look outside
Hey sleepyhead, it must have snowed at least a foot last night
That's when I saw it hangin' up above my head
She threw her arms around my neck, laughin' as she said

Blame it on the mistletoe, 'cause what happened here nobody knows
How could something simple as a kiss change my holiday like this
And we held each other all night long and we fell asleep to a Christmas song
Playin' on the radio, blame it on the mistletoe

You Forgot Your Gloves
Composer(s): Edward Eliscu; Ned Lehac
Performer(s): Janet Brace; 
Carole Simpson; Jeri Southern; Paul Specht



You forgot your gloves
When you kissed me and said, "Good-night"
So I've brought them, you see
But don't thank me
It's quite all right

You forgot your gloves
And I hope you appreciate
I'm not honest at all
It's just a stall
For one more date

What a souvenir to steal from you
And conceal from you, but then
There's a chance if you receive them, Dear
That you'll leave them, Dear, again

Now forget your heart
If you're really the kind who loves
Then you'll part with it, too
The way that you forgot your gloves

Summer '68
Composer(s): Richard Wright
Performer(s): Pink Floyd; Rosebud



Would you like to something before you leave?
Perhaps you'd care to state exactly how you feel
We say goodbye before we've said hello
I hardly even like you
I shouldn't care at all
We met just six hours ago
The music was too loud
From your bed I came today and lost a bloody year
And I would like to know, how do you feel?
How do you feel?

Not a single word was said
They lied still without fears
Occasionally you showed a smile, but what was the need?
I felt the cold far too soon in a wind of ninetyfive
My friends are lying in the sun, I wish I was there
Tomorrow brings another town, another girl like you
Have you time before you leave to greet another man
Just to let me know, how do you feel?
How do you feel?

Goodbye to you
Childish bangles too
I've had enough for one day

You Forget To Answer
Composer(s): Nico
Performer(s): Nico



When I remember what to say
When I remember what to say
You will know me again
And you forget to answer

When I remember what to say
When I remember what to say
You will know me again
And you forget to answer

You seem not to be listening
You seem not to be listening
The high tide is taking everything
And you forget to answer

When I remember what to say
When I remember what to say
You will know me again
And you forget to answer

Summer (The First Time)
Composer(s): Bobby Goldsboro
First release by: Bobby Goldsboro - 1973
Covered by multiple other artists



It was a hot afternoon
Last day of June
And the sun was a demon
The clouds were afraid
One-ten in the shade
And the pavement was steaming
I told Billy-Ray
In his red Chevrolet
I needed time for some thinking
I was just walking by
When I looked in her eye
And I swore it was winking

She was 31 and I was 17
I knew nothing about love, she knew everything
When I saw down beside her on the front porch swing
And wondered what the coming night would bring

The sun closed her eyes
As it climbed in the sky
And it started to swelter
The sweat trickled down the front of her gown
And I thought it would melt her

She through back her hair
Like I wasn't there
And she sipped on a julep
Her shoulders were bare
And I tried not to stare
When I looked at her lips

And when she looked at me
I heard her softly say
I know you're young
You don't know what to do or say
But stay with me until the sun has gone away
And I will chase the boy in you away

And then she smiled and we talked for a while
And we walked for a mile to the sea
We sat on the sand, and the boy took her hand
But I saw the sun rise as a man

Ten years have gone by
Since I looked in her eye
But the memory lingers
I got back in my mind
To the very first time
And feel the touch of her fingers

It was a hot afternoon
Last day of June
And the sun was a demon
The clouds were afraid
One-ten in the shade
And the pavement was steaming...

You dropped a bomb on me, baby!

Summer
Composer(s): Thomas Allen - Harold Brown - B.B. Dickerson - Jerry Goldstein - Lonnie Jordan - Charles Miller
Performer(s): War



Ridin' 'round town with all the windows down
Eight track playin' all your fav'rite sounds
The rhythm of the bongos fill the park
The street musicians tryin' to get a start

'Cause it's summer
Summer time is here
Yes it's summer
My time of year
Yes it's summer 
My time of year

Stretched out on a blanket in the sand
Kids of all ages diggin' Disneyland
Rappin' on the C.B. radio in your van
We'll give a big "ten four" to the truckin' man

'Cause it's summer
Summer time is here
Yes it's summer
My time of year
Yes it's summer 
My time of year

Young boys playin' stick ball in the street
Fire hydrants help to beat the heat
Old man feeding pigeons in the square
Nighttime finds young lovers walking there

'Cause it's summer
Summer time is here
Yes it's summer
My time of year
Yes it's summer 
My time of year

In Atlantic City or out in Malibu
Or any where between, I'm telling you
When you feel those balmy breezes on your face
Summer time is the best time any place

'Cause it's summer
Summer time is here
Yes it's summer
My time of year
Yes it's summer 
My time of year

You Drive Me Crazy

You know baby when you're in my arms 
I can feel your magic touch 
You drive me crazy 
You drive me crazy 

And when I'm looking in those big blue eyes 
I start flowing down in paradise 
You drive me crazy 
You drive me crazy 

Heaven must have sent you down 
Down for me to give me a thrill 
Everytime you touch me, everytime you hold me 
My heart starts beating like a train on a track 

I love you baby and it's plain to see 
I love you honey it was made to be 
You drive me crazy 
You drive me crazy (...guitar solo...) 

Heaven must have sent you down 
Down for me to give me a thrill 
Everytime you touch me, everytime you hold me 
My heart starts beating like a train on a track

You drive me crazy 
You drive me crazy

You Don't Want My Love
Composer(s): Roger Miller
Performer(s): Roger Miller; Andy Williams



In the summertime 
When all the trees and leaves are green
And the redbird sings, I'll be blue
'Cause you don't want my love 

"Some other time"
That's whatcha say when I want you
Then you laugh at me and make me cry
'Cause you don't want my love

You don't seem to care a thing about me
You'd rather live without me
Than to have my arms around you
When the nights are cold and you're so all alone 

In the summertime 
When all the trees and leaves are green
And the redbird sings, I'll be blue
'Cause you don't want my love

Once upon a time 
You used to smile and wave to me
And walk with me but now you don't
'Cause you don't want my love

Some other guy 
Is takin' up all your time
Now ya don't have any time for me
'Cause you don't want my love

You don't seem to care a thing about me
You'd rather live without me
Than to have my arms around you
When the nights are cold and you're so all alone 

In the summertime 
When all the trees and leaves are green
And the redbird sings, I'll be blue
'Cause you don't want my love

In the summertime 
When all the trees and leaves are green
And the redbird sings, I'll be blue
'Cause you don't want my love

Sultans Of Swing
Composer(s): Mark Knopfler
First release by: Dire Straits - 1978



You get a shiver in the dark
It's been raining in the park but meantime
South of the river you stop and you hold everything
A band is blowing Dixie double four time
You feel all right when you hear that music ring
You step inside but you don't see too many faces
Coming in out of the rain to hear the jazz go down
Too much competition too many other places
But not too many horns can make that sound
Way on downsouth way on downsouth London town
You check out Guitar George he knows all the chords
Mind he's strictly rhythm he doesn't want to make it cry or sing
And an old guitar is all he can afford
When he gets up under the lights to play his thing
And Harry doesn't mind if he doesn't make the scene
He's got a daytime job he's doing alright
He can play honky tonk just like anything
Saving it up for Friday night
With the Sultans with the Sultans of Swing
And a crowd of young boys they're fooling around in the corner
Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggies and their platform soles
They don't give a damn about any trumpet playing band
It ain't what they call rock and roll
And the Sultans played Creole
And then the man he steps right up to the microphone
And says at last just as the time bell rings
'Thank you goodnight now it's time to go home'
and he makes it fast with one more thing
'We are the Sultans of Swing' 

You Don't Seem To Miss Me

Performer(s): Patty Loveless;
George Jones; Los Bubbadinos



It's a long way off from where I should be going
and overtime, I hate to leave your side 
but now when I return, there's something missing
When I'm gone you don't seem to miss me

Duet: 
Now life's so fast and everything is changing'
and if your changing too, then I don't blame you
remember how you used to kiss me
but when I'm gone you don't seem to miss me

Chorus: 
I'm going back, I wonder why, I'm running fast to get home
I just can't wait to see your face but you
don't seem to miss me

Duet: 
No one can take away the things you've given
and all the good we've had alone together
There was a time when you could not resist me
Now I'm gone and you don't seem to miss me

Chorus:

I can't wait to see your face but you don't seem to miss me

To say and do whatever I please

Sul Mondo

Performer(s): Lucio Dalla



Madonna quanta luce là in fondo
che mi viene quasi voglia di uscire
e poi magari i miei mi stanno aspettando
è già ora di partire
via che preparo una valigia di sogni
e due tre voglie dentro una sportina
oh Madonnina chi l'avrebbe mai detto
vado a incontrare la vita
vado a incontrare la vita
oh oh oh
Ma che storia sul mondo
senti che freddo
e guarda come son sporco
ti piango qualcosa
per dirti che
c'è qualcuno sul mondo
con mille sogni
e mille lacrime addosso
c'è ancora qualcuno
come te
In braghe corte son cresciuto sul mondo
e come vedi sono qui a cantare
tutti i sogni fuori dalla valigia
son qui a riordinare
son qui a riordinare
Certo di voglie sì ne ho così tante
che ci potrei fare la collezione
e che così noi come le figurine
ce le potremo scambiare
ce le potremo scambiare
oh oh oh
Ma che storia il mondo
siam così tanti
eppure ognuno è da solo
ti canto qualcosa
per dirti che
c'è qualcuno sul mondo
con mille sogni
e mille lacrime addosso
c'è ancora qualcuno
come me
che nasce un bel giorno
con mille sogni
e mille lacrime addosso
e il mondo va avanti da se
Madonna quanta luce sul mondo
che mi viene voglia di uscire
non ti ricordi quel passaggio segreto
quello per non morire
basta che porti una valigia di sogni
due tre canzoni e una tastierina
poi chiudi gli occhi fino a cento e giochi
a nascondino la vita
Che storia il mondo
per mille sogni
e mille lacrime addosso
il mondo va avanti da se
ma che storia sul mondo
per mille sogni
e mille lacrime addosso
il mondo va avanti da se
Ma che storia sul mondo
Ma che storia sul mondo

The Barnshakers; Marty Robbins; The Vees



Don't, be nice to me
just because I'm your
used to be
Forget me
You don't owe me a thing

My heart
is crying now
But it will laugh
again somehow
Forget me
You don't owe me a thing

You lend your heart
You never give
I guess I should have known
These teardrops fallin'
from my eyes
are interest on a loan

Don't, be nice to me
just because I'm your
used to be
Forget me
You don't owe me a thing

Forget me
You don't owe me a thing

Now you just lend your heart
You never give
I guess I should have known
These teardrops fallin'
from my eyes
are interest on a loan

Don't, be nice to me
just because I'm your
used to be
Forget me
You don't owe me a thing
