After All These Years
Composer(s): B. Coleman - O. Kennedy
Performer(s): Foster & Allen
and multiple other artists



My darling come to me
Sit you down easily
And rest awhile near the soft fire light
Cold is the night

But warm is my heart with pride
Having you by my side
You're still my guiding light
After a-all these years

Your soft assuring ways
The rock I lean on
Saw me through my darkest days
When all hope had go-o-one

You're still the only one
I'll ever hold near
And I love you
After a-all these years

Time from me passes on
And I'm growing old
A lifetime nearly gone
I cannot unfold, nights dark and cold

But warm is your hand in mine
Feeble with aimless time
The light of love still shines
After a-all these years

Your soft assuring ways
The rock I lean on
Saw me through my darkest days
When all hope had go-o-one

You're still the only one
I'll ever hold near
And I love you
After a-all these years

Time from me passes on
And I'm growing old
A lifetime nearly gone
I cannot unfold, nights dark and cold

But warm is your hand in mine
Feeble with aimless time
The light of love still shines
After a-all these years

Your soft assuring ways
The rock I lean on
Saw me through my darkest days
When all hope had go-o-one

What Is There To Say?
Composer(s): Vernon Duke; E.Y. "Yip" Harburg
Performer(s): Ella Fitzgerald



Darling, pardon my confusion
But are you an optical illusion?
And if not, then what on earth are you doing to me?
If my speech is willy nilly
It's because I cannot guild the lilly
I should love to sing your praises
But phrases and words are silly

What is there to say? 
And what is there to do?
The dream I've been seeking has, practic'ly speaking
Come true

What is there to say? 
And how will I pull through?
I knew in a moment contentment and home meant just you

You are so lovable, so livable
Your beauty is just unforgiveable
You're made to marvel at, and words to that effect

What is there to say? 
And what is there to do?
My heart's in a deadlock
I'd even face wedlock with you

I knew in a moment contentment and home meant just you, so
What is there to say? 
And what is there to do?
My heart's in a deadlock 
I'd even face wedlock with you

After All The Time
Performer(s): Pedro Aznar



After all the time that has passed
The wound remains inside and hasn't healed
How crazy are the things
that the soul whimsically decides to keep

After my thoughts denied you
after my heart grew silent
the coals are still red
how useless it is to try to forget

I saw you in a dream again, yesterday
I must confess
Only by singing I could talk to you
Good morning, heartache
Here we go again
After such a long time
After such a long time

After all the wind that blew
the ship remains still and did not sink
It doesn't moor in any port
nor will it go to open sea, it waited for you

After all the time that has passed
I know there is no meeting between us
This song belongs to you
keep it before it runs away
just like you did

What Is Soul?
Composer(s): Bob Gallo; Ben E. King
Performer(s): Ben E. King;
and various other artists



What is soul? 
What is soul, babe?

Some few people really know
It's deep within us, it doesn't show
A soul is somethin' that comes from deep inside
But a soul is a somethin' that you can't hide

What is soul? 
What is soul, babe?

Search your heart, go deep down low
Way down there you'll find your soul
Come near girl, you look so cold
Touch my hand and warm your soul

Baby, baby, what's wrong with you
You don't know what I'm going through
Hold me so tight, so tight I can't breath
Can't you feel it girl? 
Don't you know what I mean?
This is soul!

This is soul! 
Feel the soul, babe!
What is soul, babe? 
Don't you know?
What is soul, babe? ....

After All The Good Is Gone
Composer(s): Floyd Cramer - Conway Twitty
Performer(s): Conway Twitty
and multiple other artists



Today I got a letter from someone
Just a friend we knew some time ago
And as I read between the lines
I began to realize
He didn't know I'd lost you
A long long time ago
Oh, I, just can't make it  any longer
Everything I do is always wrong
I'm just living a lie
And there's no use in trying
To keep hanging on
After all the good is gone

Lord I wish that I could die
And there's no use in trying 
To keep hanging on
After all the good is gone

What Is Life
Composer(s): George Harrison
Performer(s): George Harrison



What I feel, I can't say
But my love is there for you anytime of day
But if it's not love that you need
Then I'll try my best to make everything succeed

Tell me, what is my life without your love
Tell me, who am I without you, by my side

What I know, I can do
If I give my love now to everyone like you
But if it's not love that you need
Then I'll try my best to make ev'rything succeed

Tell me, what is my life without your love
Tell me, who am I without you, by my side
Tell me, what is my life without your love
Tell me, who am I without you, by my side

What I feel, I can't say
But my love is there for you any time of day
But if it's not love that you need
Then I'll try my best to make everything succeed

Tell me, what is my life without your love
Tell me, who am I without you, by my side
Oh tell me, what is my life without your love
Tell me, who am I without you, by my side

What is my life without your love
Tell me, who am I without you, by my side

Oh tell me, what is my life without your love
Tell me who am I without you by my side

Performer(s): Kenny Rogers 
and multiple other artists



After all is said and done
Yes after all the only one for me is you
After all
After all the times I've said
I'll try a new romance instead
But none would do after all
Each time I stayed away I worried all night
Someone might be holding you tight
Can't forget you, try as I might
You are all I'm after
After all my dreams went wrong
I had the right one right along
And it was you after all

After all we planned together
For my dreams to be in vain
Everyone has stormy weather
When you're in love don't be afraid of rain

To forget is only human
To forgive is so divine
Break my heart, but say you love me
Then after all, you're mine

To forget is only human
To forgive is so divine
Break my heart but, say you love me
Then after all, you're mine

Composer(s): Jack Scott
Performer(s): Jack Scott;
and various other artists



What in the world's come over you?
Seems we never get along (ooh, ah, ah, ah)
Ev'ry night I reminisce dreaming of your tender kisses
What in the world's come over you? (wah, wah, ooh)
Could you ever change your mind? (ah, ah, ah)
If you do, I'll still be here, dear, waiting, longing for you (ah, ah, ah)

All my life I've loved you so
Never dreamed I'd miss you so
Now, alone in my room each night
My heart, it cries "It's just not right", oh, oh, oh

What in the world's come over you?
Could you ever change your mind? (ah, ah, ah)
If you do, I'll still be here, dear, waiting, longing for you (ah, ah, ah)

All my life I've loved you so
Never dreamed I'd miss you so
Now, alone in my room each night
My heart, it cries "It's just not right", oh, oh, oh

You're still my angel from above (ah, ah, ah)
Guess you'll always be my one and only 
only real lo-o-o-ove

After All 
Composer(s): Tom Snow - Dean Pitchford
Performer(s): Cher & Peter Cetera



(Him) Well, here we are again
I guess it must be fate 
We've tried it on our own
But deep inside we've known 
We'd be back to set things straight 

(Her) I still remember 
when Your kiss was so brand new
Every memory repeats 
Every step I take retreats

(Them) Every journey always brings me back to you 
(Them) After all the stops and starts
We keep coming back to these two hearts
Two angels who've been rescued from the fall
And after all that we've been through

(Her) It all comes down to me and you

(Him) I guess it's meant to be
Forever you and me After all 

(Her) When love is truly right

(Him) This time it's truly right

(Her) It lives from year to year

(Them) It changes as it grows

(Her) And oh the way it grows

(Them) But it never disappears 
(Them) After all the stops and starts
We keep coming back to these two hearts
Two angels who've been rescued from the fall
And after all that we've been through

(Her) It all comes down to me and you

(Him) I guess it's meant to be
Forever you and me After all 

(Him) Always just beyond my tough
Though I needed you so much

(Her) After all what else is living for

(Them) Whoa 
(Them) After all the stops and starts
We keep coming back to these two hearts
Two angels who've been rescued from the fall
And after all that we've been through

(Her) It all comes down to me and you

(Him) I guess it's meant to be 
Forever you and me 

(Them) After all the stops and starts
We keep coming back to these two hearts
Two angels who've been rescued from the fall
And after all that we've been through

(Her) It all comes down to me and you

(Him) I guess it's meant to be 
Forever you and me 

After all 

What I'd Say
Composer(s): Robert Byrne; William Robinson
Performer(s): Earl Thomas Conley; - 1988
Gary Allan; Davey T Hamilton



Talkin' to the mirror, whisperin' your name
Just like you were here, you'd think I was insane
I hold these conversations in the silence of my room
Rehearsing all the things I'd say should I run into you

"How's it going?" might be what I'd say
"You broke my heart you know" or "It looks like rain today"
Or maybe, "God, I missed you since you went away"
"You're lookin' well" or "Go to hell" might be what I'd say

There's times I feel so angry I'd put my fist right through the wall
Then there's times I've come so close to giving you a call
I love you and I hate you all at the same time
I pray that you'll come back to me before I lose my mind

"How's it going?" might be what I'd say
"You broke my heart you know" or "It looks like rain today"
Or maybe, "God, I missed you since you went away"
"You're lookin' well" or "Go to hell" might be what I'd say

Guess you'll have to wait until that day
To find out what I'd say
"God, I missed you since you went away"
"Your looking well" or "Go to hell" might be what I'd say

African Skies
Composer(s): Charlie Burchill - Jim Kerr
Performer(s): Simple Minds



You say you're surprised
I thought I'd write today
Pieces of my life
That time can't fade away
Land lies dry - Africa
And the clouds roll by - Africa
I held you every night
I believed in all you'd say
Now the dust blows in my eyes
But those dreams won't fade away

The sky burns red - Africa
Don't you cry - Africa

Africa
When you cry it rains - Africa

Still the children smile - Africa
When you cry it rains - Africa
When the wild dogs howl - Africa
Still the clouds roll by - Africa

If you come to my house
I will show you something to see
It's a picture of a man

In the badlands -- oh give it to me

Touch my life and set me free

In a world that once was mine

On the edge of time
But these days I'm running through the dark
Like a blind man -- what's happened to me?
There days I'm running from a tribe in the badlands
Oh set me free

Tell it to me

Oh touch my life and set me free

It feels alright, it feels alright to be

Performer(s): Donna Drake;
and various other artists



Kiss today goodbye
The sweetness and the sorrow
Wish me luck, the same to you
But I can't forget what I did for love
What I did for love

Look, my eyes are dry
The gift was ours to borrow
It's as if we always knew
And I won't regret what I did for love
What I did for love

Gone, love is never gone
As we travel on
Love's what we'll remember

Kiss today goodbye
And point me toward tomorrow
We did what we had to do
Can't forget
Won't regret what I did for love
What I did for love...
What I did for love...
What I did for love...

What Have They Done To The Rain?
Composer(s): Malvina Reynolds
Performer(s): The Searchers;
and various other artists



Just a little rain falling all around
The grass lifts its head to the heavenly sound
Just a little rain, just a little rain
What have they done to the rain

Just a little boy standing in the rain
The gentle rain that falls for years
And the grass is gone, the boy disappears
And rain keeps falling like helpless tears
And what have they done to the rain

Just a little breeze out of the sky
The leaves nod their head as the breeze blows by
Just a little breeze with some smoke in its eye
What have they done to the rain

Just a little boy standing in the rain
The gentle rain that falls for years
And the grass is gone, the boy disappears
And rain keeps falling like helpless tears
And what have they done to the rain
What have they done to the rain
