Holl amrantau'r sêr ddywedant
Ar hyd y nos
'Dyma'r ffordd i fro gogoniant
Ar hyd y nos

Golau arall yw tywyllwch
I arddangos gwir brydferthwch
Teulu'r nefoedd mewn tawelwch
Ar hyd y nos

I my loving vigil keeping
All through the night.
Guardian angels God will send thee
All through the night

Soft the drowsy hours are creeping
Hill and dale in slumber steeping
I my loving vigil keeping
All through the night

Will You Remember Mine
Composer(s): Willie Nelson
Performer(s): Willie Nelson; Timi Yuro



Sweet is the song, when the song is love
Love that has stood the test of time
And when you've heard all the songs of love
Will you remember mine

Gone are the days that I walked with you
And I held your hand in mine
Now when you hold another's hand
Will you remember mine

I have sat 'neath the trees while a cool summer's breeze
Blew away the sands of time
And I dreamed of days when you were here
Remembering when you were mine

But gone are the times when I held you close
And pressed your lips to mine
Now when you kiss another's lips
Will you remember mine

Will you remember mine

All Through The Day
Composer(s): Jerome Kern - Oscar Hammerstein II
First recording/First release by: Margaret Whiting & Carl Kress & His Orch. - 1945/1946
Covered by multiple other artists



All through the day, I dream about the night
I dream about the night here with you
All through the day, I wish away the time
Until the time when I'm here with you

Down falls the sun, I run to meet you
The evening mist melts away!
Down smiles the moon, and soon your lips recall
The kiss I dreamed of, all through the day!

Will You Marry Me
Composer(s): Al Anderson; Jeffrey Steele
Performer(s): Alabama



I come here today, I'm kind of nervous
You know how words get in my way
It should come easy, I've been rehearsing
I don't know why I'm so afraid, to say

Will you marry me
Put our love and life together
Will you stay with me
For always and forever
On bended knee, would you take this ring
Will you marry me, please
Will you marry me

To be with you is what I live for
But at this moment I confess
Though I love you, God knows I love you
Deep down inside I'm scared to death, say yes

Will you marry me
Put our love and life together
Will you stay with me
For always and forever
On bended knee, would you take this ring
Will you marry me, please
Will you marry me

On bended knee
On bended knee
Would you take this ring
I will take your ring
Will you marry me, please
Will you marry me

All Those Yesterdays
Composer(s): Justin Tubb
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb



What will I do with All Those Yesterdays?
Where will I go, what will I say
How can I live since you have gone away?
What will I do with All Those Yesterdays?

Tomorrow never bothers me I know what it will bring
It is just another day and it won’t mean a thing
But when nighttime falls and memories come into play
What will I do with All Those Yesterdays?

Tomorrow never bothers me I know what it will bring
It is just another day and it won’t mean a thing
But when night times falls and memories come into play
What will I do with All Those Yesterdays?

Will You Love Me Tomorrow? (aka Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow)
Composer(s): Carole King; Gerry Goffin
Performer(s): The Shirelles;
and various other artists



Tonight you're mine completely
You give you love so sweetly
Tonight the light of love is in your eyes
But will you love me tomorrow?

Is this a lasting treasure
Or just a moment's pleasure?
Can I believe the magic of your sighs?
Will you still love me tomorrow?

Tonight with words unspoken
You say that I'm the only one
But will my heart be broken
When the night meets the morning sun?

I'd like to know that your love
Is love I can be sure of
So tell me now, and I won't ask again
Will you still love me tomorrow?

So tell me now, and I won't ask again
Will you still love me tomorrow?
Will you still love me tomorrow?
Will you still love me tomorrow?

All Those Years Ago
Composer(s): George Harrison
Performer(s): George Harrison



I'm shouting all about love
While they treated you like a dog
When you were the one who had made it so clear
All those years ago

I'm talking all about how to give 
They don't act with much honesty 
But you point the way to the truth when you say 
All you need is love 

Living with the good and the bad 
I always looked up to you 
Now we're left cold and sad 
By someone the devil's best friend
Someone who offended all 

We're living in a bad dream 
They've forgotten all about mankind 
And you were the one they backed up to the wall
All those years ago 
You were the one who Imagined it all
All those years ago

Deep in the darkest night 
I send out a prayer to you
Now in the world of light
Where the spirit free of the lies
And all else we despised 

They've forgotten all about God 
He's the only reason we exist
Yet you were the one that they said was so weird 
All those years ago
You said it all though not many had ears
All those years ago
You had control of our smiles and our tears
All those years ago

What shall we do, what shall we do with all this useless beauty? 
All this useless beauty

Will You Love Me In December As You Do In May?
Composer(s): J.J. Walker; Ernest R. Ball
Performer(s): Joan Morris & William Bolcom



Now in the summer of life sweetheart
You say you love but me
Gladly I give all my heart to you
Throbbing with ecstacy
But last night I saw while a dreaming
The future old and gray
And I wondered if you'll love me then dear
Just as you do today

You say the glow on my cheek sweetheart
Is like the rose so sweet
But when the bloom of fair youth has flown
Then will our lips still meet? 
When life's setting sun fades away dear
And all is said and done
Will your arms still entwine and caress me
Will our hearts beat as one?

Will you love me in the December as you do in May
Will you love me in the good old fashioned way? 
When my hair has turned all gray
Will you kiss me then and say
That you love me in December as you do in May?

All This Useless Beauty
Composer(s): Elvis Costello
First release by: June Tabor - 1992



It’s at times such as this she’d be tempted to spit
If she wasn’t so ladylike
She imagines how she might have lived
Back when legends and history collide
So she looks to her prince finding he’s so charmingly
Slumped at her side
Those days are recalled on the gallery wall
And she’s waiting for passion or humour to strike

What shall we do, what shall we do with all this useless beauty? 
All this useless beauty

Good friday arrived, the sky darkened on time
’til he almost began to negotiate
She held his head like a baby and said "it’s okay if you cry"
Now he wants her to dress as if you couldn’t guess
He desires to impress his associates
But he’s part ugly beast and hellenic deceased
So she finds that the mixture is hard to deny

What shall we do, what shall we do with all this useless beauty? 
All this useless beauty

She won’t practice the looks from the great tragic books
That were later disgraced to face celluloid
It won’t even make sense but you can bet
If she isn’t a sweetheart or plaything or pet
The film turns her into an unveiled threat

Nonsense prevails, modesty fails
Grace and virtue turn into stupidity
While the calendar fades almost all barricades to a pale compromise
And our leaders have feasts on the backsides of beasts
They still think they’re the gods of antiquity
If something you missed didn’t even exist
It was just an ideal -- is it such a surprise? 

What shall we do, what shall we do with all this useless beauty? 
All this useless beauty

What shall we do, what shall we do with all this useless beauty? 
All this useless beauty

Will You Forgive If I Forget?
Composer(s): Kurt Hirsekorn; Gabriel Selig



Oh could I but recall the past, dear 
and all its bright and happy hours! 
It would not be that now at last, dear
your love should fade like summer flowers 
our hands, our lips have met in gladness 
how can our lives be parted now 
Let love's roses banish sadness, recall the shadow from your brow!

To take your image from my heart, dear 
would be to take the light from day! 
and if our paths on earth should part, dear
my fondest hopes would fade away! 
Let not our little word now sever 
the bliss, the dreams that we have known! 
Oh, let us be sweethearts forever, let your dear love be all my own!

Say not farewell, ah leave that word unspoken 
which brings a tear a bitter sigh! 
say not the vows that once we made are broken 
by one sad word that word Goodbye! 
Oh! give me back your fond caresses 
I cannot help I love you yet 
the fault was mine my heart confesses 
will you forgive if I forget?

All This Stuff Takes Time
Composer(s): Arlo Guthrie
Performer(s): Arlo Guthrie



It ain't so much the boredom
But the fire in her soul
That made her life unbearable
While living in that hole
Of her dark surburban nightmare
'Till she went to see the Dead
And the self esteem she valued
Was immediately spent
And she had no one to turn to
So she just turned off her mind
She's a well adjusted wanderer
But all this stuff takes time

On the streets of old Wyoming
There's a couple from L.A.
They are post-environmentalists
Looking for to stay
'Till their friends all come to join them
In the quest for air to breathe
And when it gets too crowded
They will just pick up and leave
Like they did in New York City
When the coast seemed quite sublime
It don't take much but money
And money just takes time

Marie is on the lounge chair
Draped around the pool
Avoiding almost anyone who'd
Desecrate he cool
It's the reason she's attractive
She's already self abused
And her pride won't feel the loneliness
That comes with being used
She's the center of the universe
For which she was designed
Until she wakes up wandering
Why all this stuff takes time

Bill died of a heart attack
Beating up his wife
Now he's come back as a lesbian
That's looking for his wife
Who is now a psychoanalyst
That likes to work with plants
Except of course on weekends
When she likes to wear the pants
She's a leather goddess minister
Who works with the confined
It don't take much to realize
That all this stuff takes time

All This Love
Composer(s): El DeBarge
First release by: DeBarge - 1982
Covered by multiple other artists



I had some problems
And no one could seem to solve them
But you found the answer
You told me to take a chance
And learn the way of love, my baby
And all that it had to offer
In time you will see that love won't let you down

You said that you loved me
Said hurt only came to pass me
It sounded so convincing
That I gave it half a chance
And learned the way of love my baby
There is so much love inside me
And all that I have I give my all to you
(all, all my loving)

And all this love is waiting for you
(my baby, my sugar)
And all, all my love is waiting for you

All this love is waiting for you
(Oooh!)
And baby all, baby all this love is waiting for you
(my sugar)

Oh, I love how you make me feel this way
My love is getting stronger every day (my baby)
And after all I went and put myself through
I found that all I really needed was you (my darlin')

As the sun has its place up in the sky
I love you so dearly
And all the same, there's no need to wonder why
I need you, please hear me

Say you really love me, baby
Say you really love me, darlin'
For I really love you baby
You know I really love you darlin'

Say you really love me, baby
Say you really love me, darlin'
For I really love you baby
Sure enough love you darlin'

Say, say you love me......

Will There Be Any Yodeling In Heaven?
Performer(s): Bob Wills;
and various other artists



Will there be any yodeling in heaven
That is what I'd like to know
There can't be any wrong
In just singing a song
With a yodel lay-eee-ooh-my-lay-eee-tee
Yodel lay-dee-ay-dee-ooh-my-lay-dee-tee
Will there be any yodeling in heaven
Ooh-lay-dee-dee-dee-dee
And the heavens above
Will they sing the songs we love
While I yodel lay-eee-ooh-my lay-dee-tee

As I climb the golden stairway up yonder
And life's journey on this Earth is o'er
As I cross the Great Divide
Will they welcome me inside
With my yodel lay-eee-ooh-my-lay-eee-tee
Yodel lay-dee-ay-dee-ooh-my-lay-dee-tee
Will there be any yodeling in heaven
Ooh-lay-dee-dee-dee-dee
And the heavens above
Will they sing the songs we love
While I yodel lay-dee-eee-ooh-my lay-dee-tee

All This And Heaven Too
Composer(s): Eddie DeLange - James Van Heusen
Performer(s): Bob Eberly & Jimmy Dorsey



You give me your lips
And your lips are so heavenly
Stars in the sky are all free
And they shine for me
So does the moon in the blue
All this is mine and heaven too

You give me your arms
And your arms are like angel wings
Sweet to my ear is the song ev'ry bluebird sings
Each rosebud kissed by the dew
All this is mine and heaven too

I own each summer day
Each mountain capped with snow
The sentimental tree, the dreamy streams that flow
Ev'ry country lane and ev'ry street of stone
Are highways of adventure made for me alone

You give me your love
And your love is a melody
Deep in my heart I will carry the song with me
You bring a love so divine
All this is mine and heaven too

Will The Circle Be Unbroken
Composer(s): A.P. Carter
Performer(s): The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band;
and various other artists



I was standing by my window
On one cold and cloudy day
When I saw that hearse come rolling
For to carry my mother away

Will the circle be unbroken
By and by, lord, by and by
There’s a better home a-waiting
In the sky, lord, in the sky

I said to that undertaker
Undertaker please drive slow
For this lady you are carrying
Lord, I hate to see here go

Will the circle be unbroken
By and by, lord, by and by
There’s a better home a-waiting
In the sky, lord, in the sky

Oh, I followed close behind her
Tried to hold up and be brave
But I could not hide my sorrow
When they laid her in the grave

Will the circle be unbroken
By and by, lord, by and by
There’s a better home a-waiting
In the sky, lord, in the sky

I went back home, my home was lonesome
Missed my mother, she was gone
All of my brothers, sisters crying
What a home so sad and lone

Will the circle be unbroken
By and by, lord, by and by
There’s a better home a-waiting
In the sky, lord, in the sky

We sang the songs of childhood
Hymns of faith that made us strong
Ones that mother maybelle taught us
Hear the angels sing along

Will the circle be unbroken
By and by, lord, by and by
There’s a better home a-waiting
In the sky, lord, in the sky

Will the circle be unbroken
By and by, lord, by and by
There’s a better home a-waiting
In the sky, lord, in the sky

All Things Must Pass
Composer(s): George Harrison
First release by: George Harrison - 1970
Covered by multiple other artists



Sunrise doesn't last all morning
A cloudburst doesn't last all day
Seems my love is up
And has left you with no warning
But it's not always going to be this grey

All things must pass
All things must pass away

Sunset doesn't last all evening
A mind can blow those clouds away
After all this my love is up
And must be leaving
It has not always been this grey

All things must pass
All things must pass away

All things must pass
None of life's strings can last
So I must be on my way
And face another day

Now the darkness only stays at night-time
In the morning it will fade away
Daylight is good
At arriving at the right time
It's not always going to be this grey

All things must pass
All things must pass away
All things must pass
All things must pass away

Will The Angels Play Their Harps For Me?
Composer(s): D. White; Hirsch
Performer(s): Josef Locke



I was passing by the churchyard in the city
and I saw a beggar old and grey
With his hands outstretched he asked the folks for pity
and it made me sad to hear him say

Oh I wonder, yes I wonder, will the angels way up yonder
will the angels play their harps for me?
For my heart is growing dreary and my feet are growing weary
Will the angels play their haprs for me?

Oh a million miles I've travelled, and a million sights I've seen
and I'm ready for the glory soon to be
Oh I wonder, yes I wonder, will the angels way up yonder
will the angels play their harps for me?

Oh I wonder, yes I wonder, will the angels way up yonder
will the angels play their harps for me?

Oh my heart is growing dreary, and my feet are growing weary
will the angels play their harps for me?

Oh a million miles I've travelled, and a million sights I've seen
and I'm ready for the glory soon to be
Oh I wonder yes, I wonder, will the angels way up yonder
will the angels play their harps for me?

Will the angels play their harps for me?

All The Young Punks (New Boots And Contracts)
Composer(s): Strummer - Jones
Performer(s): The Clash



Hanging about
down the market street
I spent a lot of time on my feet
When I saw some passing yabbos
We did chance to speak

I knew how to sing
y' know an
They knew how to pose
An' one of them had a Les Paul
Heart attack machine

All the young punks
Laugh your life
Cos there ain't much to cry for
All the young cunts
Live it now
Cos there ain't much to die for

Everybody wants to bum
A ride on the rock 'n' roller coaster
And we went out
Got our name in small print on the poster
Of course we got a manger
Though he ain't the mafia
A contract is a contract
When they get 'em out on yer

You gotta drag yourself to work
Drag yourself to sleep
You're dead from the neck up
By the middle of the week

Face front you got the future shining
Like a piece of gold
But I swear as we get closer
It look more like a lump of coal
But it's better than some factory
Now that's no place to waste your youth
I worked there for a week once
I luckily got the boot

Will The Angels Let Me Play
Composer(s): Fred E. Gladdish; W.L. Werden
Performer(s): George Morgan



In the yard where children
Were playing games one day
A little boy on crutches
Was watching wistfully*
It seemed so hard he couldn't play
Like other children do
They said that he would spoil their games
And was a baby too

When I go to heaven momma
Will the angels let me play
Because I'm just a cripple
Will they say I'm in the way

Here the children never want me
I'm a bother they all say
When I go to heaven mommy
Will the angels let me play

Now this little fellows heart was breaking in two
Just because the rest of the kids
Wouldn't let him play

And as he hobbled to his mom on his crutches
With his eyes full of tears
She heard her little cripple boy say
Gosh mommy I'm so awfully tired

And then he bowed his little head
Won't you rock me just a little bit mom
Before I have to go to bed
And gee how I wish daddy would come home
Before I go to sleep
Will you tell him how I waited and waited
For so long mom
For his kiss on my little cheek

And then that night
When all was still and silent
A band of angels came that way
And they took this little fellow up to heaven
Where he'll never never have to say
Mom when I go up to heaven
Won't the angels let me play

Or maybe because I'm just a kid on crutches
They'll say I'm in the way
You know Mom here the rest kids never want me
I'm a bother they all say

So when I go up to heaven mom
Don't you think that maybe
Just maybe
The angels will let me play

When I go to heaven momma
Will the angels let me play
