Every time I look into your lovely eyes
I see a love that money just can't buy
One look from you, I drift away
I pray that you are here to stay
Anything you want, you got it
Anything you need, you got it
Anything at all, you got it
Baby!
Every time I hold you I begin to understand
Everything about you tells me I'm your man
I live my life to be with you
No one can do the things you do
Anything you want, you got it
Anything you need, you got it
Anything at all, you got it
Baby!
Anything you want
Anything you need
Anything at all
I'm glad to give my love to you
I know you feel the way I do
Anything you want, you got it
Anything you need, you got it
Anything at all, you got it
Baby!
Anything you want, you got it
Anything you need, you got it
Anything at all, you got it
Baby
Anything at all
Baby
You got it

Eindelijk is het nu weer zomer holiday Niet meer werken voor een week of twee Enkel dromen van een zomer holiday k Wil d'r uit en ik ga naar de zee En ik neem jou mee We gaan naar waar de zon zal schijnen En naar een zee zo hemelsblauw Daar gaan onze zorgen verdwijnen En ik, ik hou van jou Met zn tweetjes op een zomer holiday Is het mooiste wat er kan bestaan Fijn genieten op een zomer holiday En trek je nergens meer iets van aan Laat de boel maar gaan
We leven enkel voor de liefde We leven enkel voor elkaar We lachen, we dansen, we zingen Twee weken van een jaar Eindelijk is het nu weer zomer holiday Niet meer werken voor een week of twee Enkel dromen van een zomer holiday k Wil der uit en ik ga naar de zee en ik neem jou mee Mmm mmm Mmm mmm Mmm mmm
You Go To My Head Composer(s): Haven Gillespie; J. Fred Coots Performer(s): Teddy Wilson; and various other artists
You go to my head and you linger like a haunting refrain And I find you spinning 'round in my brain Like the bubbles in a glass of champagne You go to my head like a sip of sparkling Burgundy brew And I find the very mention of you Like the kicker in a julep or two
The thrill of the thought that you might give a thought to my plea Cast a spell over me Still I say to myself get a hold of yourself Can't you see that it never can be
You go to my head with a smile that makes my temperature rise Like a summer with a thousand Julys You intoxicate my soul with your eyes Though I'm certain that this heart of mine Hasn't a ghost of a chance in this crazy romance You go to my head You go to my head
You Go Back To Your World (And I'll Go Back To Mine)
You Go Back To Your World (And I'll Go Back To Mine) Composer(s): Johnny Mosby Performer(s): Johnny & Jonie Mosby
I know we can't be satisfied with love we had to steal For a little while our passion made us blind Now if the shoe was on the other foot, I know just how we'd feel So you go back to your world and I'll go back to mine
You go back to your world and I'll go back to mine We'll both leave the darkness where unfaithfulness must hide They love us so and we both know we're not the cheating kind So you go back to your world and I'll go back to mine
(Instrumental Break)
The taste of tears on your cheek tell me this is goodbye To seek of love would be a waste of time Now you don't wanna hurt the one who patiently stands by So you go back to your world and I'll go back to mine
You go back to your world and I'll go back to mine We'll both leave the darkness where unfaithfulness must hide They love us so and we both know we're not the cheating kind So you go back to your world and I'll go back to mine
The Ballad Of Josie Composer(s): Floyd Huddleston - Don Costa Performer(s): Ron Dante
The ballad of Josie A story to remember A pretty girl, a sturdy girl Made of solid timber She set her sights and fought her fights And justice was her aim And Rebel County has never been the same
She didn't wear no fancy clothes And worked like any man She found a lot of danger And still she never ran
Josie had some high ideals And never did she lose 'm And she also had some rough words In case she had to use 'm The ballad of Josie A story to remember A pretty girl, a sturdy girl Made of solid timber She set her sights and fought her fights And justice was her aim And Rebel County has never been the same
The ballad of Josie A story to remember The ballad of Josie
You Give Me Those Feelings Composer(s): Lynsey De Paul Performer(s): Lynsey De Paul
I gave my heart I don't know why You never do the things like the other guys You don't buy me flowers You don't call me up But you give me something I need a lot
You give me those feelings You give me those feelings The kind that money can't buy They kind of leave but not quite Feelings and when you get feelings Who could need anything more
I don't know why But I love you so However hard I try well they still don't go With you sloppy kisses and your funny chin You really don't know the state I'm in
You give me those feelings You give me those feelings The kind that make your handshake Just like a tiny earthquake Feelings and when you get feelings who could need anything more
Aaah
Feelings, you give me those feelings The kind that money can't buy They kind of leave but not quite Feelings and when you get feelings Who could need anything more Isn't it what life is for
Summer Days And Summer Nights Performer(s): Danny Kirwan
Summer days and summer nights Far away from city lights And you, my love, without your sweet song In the world Drifting like a summer breeze (call my name along the way) And in the afternoon We'll walk and find the things to say But now's the time to say goodbye To the magic in your eyes To the magic in your eyes To the magic in your eyes Drifting like a summer breeze Sometimes you call my name along the way And in the afternoon We'll walk and find the things to say But now's the time to say goodbye To the magic in (your eyes) To the magic in your eyes To the magic in your eyes Drifting like a summer breeze Sometimes you call my name along the way And in the afternoon We'll walk and find the things to say But now's the time to say goodbye To the magic in your eyes To the magic in your eyes To the magic in your eyes To the magic in your eyes To the magic in your eyes
Summer Breeze Composer(s): Jimmy Seals - Dash Crofts First release by: Seals & Crofts - 1972 Covered by multiple other artists
See the curtains hangin' in the window In the evening on a Friday night A little light-a-shinin' through the window Let's me know everything's all right
Summer breeze makes me feel fine Blowin' through the jasmine in my mind
See the paper layin' on the sidewalk A little music from the house next door So I walk on up to the door step Through the screen and across the floor
Sweet days of summer - the jasmine's in bloom July dressed up and playing her tune And I come home from a hard day's work And you're waitin' there Not a care in the world
See the smile awaitin in the kitchen Food cookin' and the plates for two Feel the arms that reach out to hold me In the evening when the day is through

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

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

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
