All I See Is Your Face Composer(s): Dan Hill Performer(s): Dan Hill
Everytime the phone rings I pray it might be you That you thought out all the answers Wanna get back togeter again Oh but a strangers voice rings thru my ears And though I listen you are all I hear And girl I didnt mean to drive you away People come and go so fast But all I see is your face
Theres an old man on the corner Just staring at the sea I wanna hold him like a broken doll Ask him if hes lonely like me The waves crash like a violent dream The mist flies and the seagulls scream And the old man he sees nothing just stares into space And me all I can see is your face
Now I know there are no promises in love Youve gotta give it all you have And hope that maybe you can share Maybe you can share your life with someone A stranger touches me and all I can feel Is your embrace A stranger looks my way And all I ever see is your face
Ive got my songs to protect me Ive got my friends to ease the pain They say time will heal this emptiness Girl without you it aint the same I dont see any stars tonight Just the darkness of the city lights I close my eyes once more and try to escape And all I can see is your face

All I See Is You ((Italian Version: L'amore Non È Amore Senza Te (by Peppino Di Capri) - 1966)) Composer(s): Clive Westlake - Ben Weisman First release by: Dusty Springfield - 1966
I tried so hard All summer through Not to think too much of you But the more I try The more I find I just cant leave the past behind
Times that are happy Are times that are few And once I was happy When I had you
But days have come and gone Since you were here Nights are twice as long Without you near Pictures on my mind Stand out so clear No matter where I am Or what I do My darling All I see is you
Youre there in every dream I ever dream There at every place Ive ever been Everyday I find Youre in my heart And on my mind I close my eyes But Im not blind I see you still And when I throw my arms out wide I find that youre not by my side But one thing is for sure Until I do All I see is you
Everyday I find Youre in my heart And on my mind I close my eyes But Im not blind I see you still, oh
I wont live again til Im with you Oh, darling I wont love again Unless its with you
So until the day When you are back with me to stay In every way All I see is you

Whoever's In New England Composer(s): Kendal Franceschi; Quentin Powers Performer(s): Reba McEntire; Di Scherling; Mark Thornton
You spend an awful lot of time in Massachusetts Seems Like every other week you've got a meeting waiting there Business must be booming or could something else Be moving in the air up there
You say that its important for our future An executive on his way up has got to play the part Each time duty calls you got to give it all You've got with all your heart
When whoever's in New England is through with you And Boston finds better things to do You know its not too late 'cause you'll always have a place to go When whoever's in New Englands through with you
I hear the winter time up north can last forever Ive been told its beautiful to see this time of year They say the snow can blind you till the world you left behind Just disappears I hear
I packed your bags and left them in the hallway But before you leave again theres just one thing you outta know When the icy winds blow through you remember that its me Who feels the cold most of all
When whoever's in New England is through with you And Boston finds better things to do You know its not too late 'cause you'll always have a place to go When whoever's in New Englands through with you
All I Really Need Is You Composer(s): Neil Diamond - Tom Hensley - Alan Lindgren Performer(s): Neil Diamond
After all these years After all these tears between us Still I couldn't find Someone half as right as you And each time I stop to think What it is I really need Here's what I conclude All I really need is you
Just say what you want to say You don't have a chance in the world Can I, knowing how I've tried Still come close to losing you, girl When you are my world Have I spent so many years Trying but in vain to tell you Don't you know it's true All I really need is you
How was I to know We'd have ended here Where we finally did You tied you life to mine Once upon a starry night And when someone asks of me What it is that I believe Say, I believe it's true All I really need is you
Just say what you want to say We don't have a chance in the world Can I, knowin' how I've tried Still come close to losing you, girl When you are my world
Have I spent so many years Tryin' but in vain to tell you Feelings come and go Me, I'm never gonna ever let you go Promise you I'm gonna always love you so 'Cause all I really need is you
Whoever Finds This, I Love You Composer(s): Mac Davis Performer(s): Mac Davis; Anthony Armstrong Jones; Patti Page
On the quiet street in the city A little old man walked alone Shuffling through the autumn afternoon And the autumn leaves reminded him Another summer's come and gone He had long lonely nights ahead waiting for June
Then among the leaves near an orphan's home A piece of paper caught his eyes And he stooped to pick it up with trembling hands As he read the childish writing The old man began to cry 'Cause the words burned inside him like a brand
"Whoever finds this, I love you Whoever finds this, I need you I ain't even got no one to talk to So, whoever finds this, I love you!"
Well, the old man's eyes searched the orphan's home And came to rest upon a child With her nose pressed up against the window pane And the old man knew he'd found a friend at last So he waved at her and smiled And they both knew they'd spend the winter Laughing at the rain
And they did spend the winter laughing at the rain Talking through the fence Exchanging little gifts they've made for each other The old man would carve toys And the little girl would draw pictures of beautiful ladies for him And they laughed a lot
But then one day on the first of June The little girl ran to the fence... the old man wasn't there And, somehow she knew he was never coming back So she went back to her little room took a crayon, And wrote
"Whoever finds this, I love you Whoever finds this, I need you I ain't even got no one to talk to So, whoever finds this, I love you!
All I Needed Was The Rain From the film "Stay Away, Joe" (1968) Composer(s): Ben Weisman - Sid Wayne Performer(s): Elvis Presley; Jennie Duff
Hello misfortune How's my old friend Mister Misery? I've been away so long I bet you thought you'd seen the last of me Got no bed, to rest my head No doors or walls or window pane Now all I needed was the rain Rain, rain, rain, rain
Met a little honey at the "Buzzin' Bumble Bee Cafe" Yes I did One drink and all my money And that honey bee had flown away I'm 'bout as low, as I can go I don't really mean to complain Now all I needed was the rain Rain, rain...rain..rain
All I needed was this rain... All I needed was the rain...um..um.....

All I Need To Know Composer(s): Lou Gramm - Mick Jones Performer(s): Foreigner
So I walk another mile down this crooked road Clouds rolling in lord its getting cold Feeling fine, feel lost, feeling blue tonight But my only friend is mr. moonlight Then I see you girl lost in your book of poems Youre in another world, I should leave you alone My heart races on I try and hold it back But like a runaway train Im about to jump the tracks
Now you say you need a friend I swear to you if thats what you need Thats what Ill be But I hope this never ends I feel theres something more the way You look at me
And thats all I need to know I wont question why dont need a reason We can take our time we can take it real slow When I see it in your eyes Thats all I need to know
Now were talking bout angels that have lost their wings This melancholy world and the nature of things But them theres only silence when your eyes meet mine Sends a shiver to my soul runs deeper than time
Reciting from your black book you were like some wounded bird I tried to catch your heart as it fell between your words You tore out one page and let it blow away Then you disappeared into your world Its a place I just cant stay
You say you need a friend I swear to you if thats what you need Thats what Ill be But I hope this never ends I feel theres something more the way You look at me
And thats all I need to know I wont question why dont need a reason We can take our time we can take it real slow When I see it in your eyes Thats all I need to know
All I need to know I wont question why dont need a reason We can take our time we can take it real slow But its right here in my heart Thats all I need to know
Thats all I need to know I wont question why dont need a reason We can take our time we can take it real slow When I see it in your eyes Thats all I need to know
All I need to know I wont question why dont need a reason We can take our time we can take it real slow But its right here in my heart Thats all I need to know
Thats all I need to know Thats all I need to know Thats all I need to know All I need to know
Whoa, Sailor Composer(s): Hank Thompson; Walt McCoy Performer(s): Hank Thompson; - 1949 The Maddox Brothers & Rose
I'll tell you 'bout my night on shore if you will lend an ear I stepped into a cabaret to get myself a beer A pretty girl sat all alone and needed company But when I got close, this girl arose, this is what she said to me Now she said, "Whoa, sailor, be careful what you do In your eye there's a gleam and to me it seems your just like all the rest With a wolfish eye and a line that's sly, then a sailor's at his best"
Now look here, babe, you've got me wrong, I'm not that kinda guy Why, I just got back from across the seas where there are no girls arie Now let me talk to you a while, I'm sure you'll see my way But when I went to spout she turned about, this is what she had to say Now she said, "Whoa, sailor, I've heard that line before You'll look into my eyes and tell me lies and tales of the seven seas But a sailor's full of that kinda bull, so don't hand it to me"
Oh, pretty girl you've let me down you've broken my poor heart And oh, how it hurt when you had to spout that last sad remark I said I think I'll have a drink and I broke out six month's pay With wide open eyes she breathed a sigh, this time she had to say Now she said, "Whoa, sailor, I think you've won my heart" Well, she was right neat and she sure was sweet, but I knew she was that sort But she's not all to blame 'cause it's a sailor's aim to have a girl in every port
Who Wouldn't Love You Composer(s): Carl Fischer; Bill Carey Performer(s): Faron Young; and various other artists
(Love you love you love you love you do do do do)
Who wouldn't love you who wouldn't care You're so enchanting people must stare You're the dream that dreamers want to dream about You're the breath of spring that lovers gad about or mad about Who wouldn't love you who wouldn't buy The west side of heaven if you winked your eye You're the answer to my every prayer darling Who wouldn't love you who wouldn't care
(You're the dream that dreamers want to dream about You're the breath of spring that lovers gad about or mad about)
(You're the answer to my every prayer darling Who wouldn't love you who wouldn't care)
Who wouldn't love you who wouldn't care... Who wouldn't love you who wouldn't care
All I Need Is Time Composer(s): Bud Reneau Performer(s): Gladys Knight & the Pips and multiple other artists
All I need is time, then I'll get over you A little at a time, a bit each day All I need is time to mend a dream or two Then I'll forget the love you took away
Morning's here again, just like the day before But the only change is that I love you more All I need is time, maybe a thousand years Maybe a million tears, but I need time
Everybody says the pain won't last too long Have a lot of fun and time will fly It took a lot of time till love was born in me And it'll take some time for love to die
Each and every day I spend forgetting you Brings another night I never quite get through All I need is time, maybe a thousand years Maybe a million tears, but I need time
Who Would True Valour See Composer(s): John Bunyan Performer(s): Maddy Prior
Who would true valour see Let him come hither One here will constant be Come wind, come weather There's no discouragement Shall make him once relent His first avowed intent to be a pilgrim
Whoso beset him 'round With dismal stories Who but themselves confound His strength the more is No lion can him fright He'll with a giant fight But he will have a right to be a pilgrim.
Hobgoblin nor foul fiend Can daunt his spirit He knows he at the end Shall life inherit Then fancies flee away He'll fear not what men say He'll labour night and day to be a pilgrim
Who would true valour see Let him come hither One here will constant be Come wind, come weather There's no discouragement Shall make him once relent His first avowed intent to be a pilgrim
