Day Dreaming Composer(s): Aretha Franklin Originally performed by: Aretha Franklin Covered by various other artists
Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you Look at my love blowing away He's the kind of guy that would say "Hey, baby let's get away Let's go some place, huh" Well I don't care He's the kind of guy that you give your everything You trust your heat, share all of your love Till death do you part
I want-to be what he wants When he wants it and whenever he needs it And when he's lonesome and feelin' love starved I'll be there to feed it I'm lovin him a little bit more each day Turns me right on when I hear him say Hey, baby, let's get away, Let's go somewhere far Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you Look at my love blowing away Daydreamin' and I'm thinkin' of you
Look in the mirror, and what do you see? Reflections of a person that used to be Youre running round town, creating bad debts Lets face it, baby, your life is a mess Youre driving fast now, and speeding again Thatll never help you ease the pain Theres nothing in a bottle you can take from the shelf Thatll bring you back to earth, cause you need help
The angels have mercy on you But they cant stop you doing what you wanna do May the angels have mercy on you Im gonna help you pull through
Now youre headed down a one-way street Let the needle return Ive been there. who you meet? Watch out, youre gonna get burned You cant blame me for the mess youre in All your life youve been fooling yourself
Ill help you if I can You know Ill be there Lifes too sweet to show this lack of care
The angels have mercy on you But they cant stop you doing what you wanna do May the angels have mercy on you Im gonna help you pull through
Take a look, a look at yourself Take a look, a look at yourself Take a look, a look at yourself As the angels have mercy on you!

All night long I'm day-dreaming Day-dreaming of wonderful you Constantly I can see you before me Then we kiss and you whisper you adore me And though I know I'm only day-dreaming Please tell me I'm not play-dreaming Tell me I'm not wrong While I'm day-dreaming all night long

Oh, I could hide 'neath the wings Of the bluebird as she sings The six o'clock alarm would never ring But it rings and I rise Wipe the sleep out of my eyes My shavin' razor's cold and it stings
Cheer up, Sleepy Jean Oh, what can it mean To a daydream believer And a homecoming queen
You once thought of me As a white knight on a steed Now you know how happy I can be Oh, and our good times start and end Without dollar one to spend But how much, baby, do we really need
Cheer up, Sleepy Jean Oh, what can it mean To a daydream believer And a homecoming queen Cheer up, Sleepy Jean Oh, what can it mean To a daydream believer And a homecoming queen
Cheer up, Sleepy Jean Oh, what can it mean To a daydream believer And a homecoming queen (Repeat)

Oh Mother Nature is singing a song with the birds Beautiful rhyme when the sun's up on time From the hills When the light of the day shines silent and still There's nothing that stirs but the animal's word Until...
We awake with the sounds of life that surrounds us Love for tomorrow won't do for today Salient bell across rivers that flow Rings in the night For the angel's delight Angel's delight

Daydream, I fell asleep amid the flowers
for a couple of hours on a beautiful day
Daydream, I dreamed of you amid the flowers
for a couple of hours, such a beautiful day!
I dreamed of the places I've been with you
how we sat with the stream flowing by
And then when I kissed you and held you
So near tell me why, tell me why you're so shy?
Daydream, I fell asleep amid the flowers
for a couple of hours on a beautiful day
Daydream, come share a dream amid the flowers
For a couple of hours on a beautiful day
I dreamed of the places I've been with you
how we sat with the stream flowing by
And then when I kissed you and held you so near
tell me why, tell me why you're so shy?
Daydream, I sing with you amid the flowers
for a couple of hours, singing all of the day

Angels At My Gate Composer(s): Manfred Mann - Hirth Martinez - O'Neill Performer(s): Manfred Mann's Earth Band
There's a finger on the dial The lucky wheel goes round Little joker knows he can't escape The same time every year The fun fair's back in town Numbers in the air like ticker tape
58, 56, 54 Good angels at my door 63, 62, 61, 60, 59, 58 Good angels at my gate
Throw a seven down Place another bet The joker laughs as the stakes get higher The gambler and the clown Without a safety net Balancing unsteady on a wire
58, 56, 54 Good angels at my door 63, 62, 61, 60, 59, 58 Good angels at my gate
There's a finger on the dial The lucky wheel goes round Little joker knows he can't escape The same time every year The fun fair's back in town Numbers in the air like ticker tape

What a day for a daydream What a day for a daydreamin' boy And I'm lost in a daydream Dreamin' 'bout my bundle of joy
And even if time ain't really on my side It's one of those days for taking a walk outside I'm blowing the day to take a walk in the sun And fall on my face on somebody's new-mown lawn
I've been having a sweet dream I been dreaming since I woke up today It's starring me and my sweet dream 'Cause she's the one makes me feel this way
And even if time is passing me by a lot I couldn't care less about the dues you say I got Tomorrow I'll pay the dues for dropping my load A pie in the face for being a sleepy bull doag
And you can be sure that if you're feeling right A daydream will last long into the night Tomorrow at breakfast you may prick up your ears Or you may be daydreaming for a thousand years
What a day for a daydream Custom made for a daydreaming boy And I'm lost in a daydream Dreaming 'bout my bundle of joy
Angels Are Hard To Find Composer(s): Hank Williams Jr. Performer(s): Hank Williams Jr.
Lord I'm singing you this message up to heaven asking you to send me down another angel I've been looking for along time for someone to get her off my mind but you know Lord, Angels are hard to find
I want an angel with arms and not with wings Someone that I can call my darling If you can think of someone to fit that description Lord could you help me one more time But I know Lord, Angels are hard to find
It's my fault I lost the first one you sent to me I didn't know 'til she was gone how much she mean't to me She loved me but I was blind I bet I do a whole lot better next time But I know Lord, Angels are hard to find
I want an angel with arms and not with wings Someone that I can call darling If you can think of someone to fit my description Lord could you help ole Hank one more time but I know Lord, yeah angels are hard to find One like that right there Lord Angels are hard to find
Angels Among Us Composer(s): Becky Hobbs - Don Goodman Performer(s): Alabama and multiple other artists
I was walking home from school on a cold winter's day Took a shortcut through the woods and I lost my way It was getting late and I was scared and alone Then a kind old man took my hand and led me home Mama couldn't see him, but he was standing there But I knew in my heart, he was the answer to my prayers
Oh I believe there are angels among us Sent down to us from somewhere up above They come to you and me in our darkest hours To show us how to live To teach us how to give To guide us with a light of love
When life dealt troubled times and had me down on my knees There's always been someone there to come along and comfort me A kind word from a stranger to lend a helping hand A phone call from a friend just to say I understand Ain't it kind of funny at the dark end of the road Someone lights the way with just a single ray of hope
Oh I believe there are angels among us Sent down to us from somewhere up above They come to you and me in our darkest hours To show us how to live To teach us how to give To guide us with a light of love
They wear so many faces Show up in the strangest places Grace us with thier mercy In our time of need
Oh I believe there are angels among us Sent down to us from somewhere up above They come to you and me in our darkest hours To show us how to live To teach us how to give To guide us with a light of love

Like The Way I Do Composer(s): Melissa Etheridge Performer(s): Melissa Etheridge; Melody; Gerd Rube
Is it so hard to satisfy your senses You found out to love me you have to climb some fences Scratching and crawling along the floor to touch you And just when it feels right you say you found someone else to hold you Does she like i do
Tell me does she love you like the way I love you Does she stimulate you attract and captivate you Tell me does she miss you existing just to kiss you Like the way I do Tell me does she want you infatuate and haunt you She knows just how to shock you electrify and rock you Does she inject you seduce you and affect you Like the way I do
Can I survive all the implications Even if I tried could you be less than an addiction Don't you think I know there's so many others Who would beg steal and lie fight kill and die Just to hold you hold you like I do
Tell me does she love you like the way I love you Does she stimulate you attract and captivate you Tell me does she miss you existing just to kiss you Like the way I do Tell me does she want you infatuate and haunt you Does she know just how to shock and electrify and rock you Does she inject you seduce you and affect you Like the way I do
Nobody loves you like the way I do Nobody wants you like the way I do Nobody needs you like the way I do Nobody aches nobody aches just to hold you Like the way I do
Tell me does she love you like the way I love you Does she stimulate you attract and captivate you Tell me does she miss you existing just to kiss you Like the way I do Tell me does she want you infatuate and haunt you Does she know just how to shock and electrify and rock you Does she inject you seduce you and affect you Like the way I do

Daybreak, another new day The mist on the meadow is drifting away For it's daybreak, the sun's in the sky now And flowers break through their blanket of dew Sunrise, how lovely it seems To see from my window, a sky full of dreams As the white clouds sail on through the blue At daybreak I daydream of you
Long ago, high on a mountain in Mexico Lived a young shepherd boy, Angelo Who met a young girl and he loved her so Rich was she, came from a very high family Angelo knew it could never be They ran away to their destiny
Running away together, running away forever Angelo Running away from danger, hiding from every stranger Angelo They knew it wasn't wrong They found a love so strong They took their lives that night And in the morning light They found them on the sand They saw them lying there, hand in hand

I'm singin' to the world, it's time we let the spirit come in Let it come on in I'm singin' to the world, everybody's caught in the spin Look at where we've been We've been runnin' around, year after year Blinded with pride, blinded with fear
But it's daybreak, if you wanna believe It can be daybreak, ain't no time to grieve Said it's daybreak if you'll only believe And let it shine, shine, shine All around the world
Singin' to the world, what's the point in puttin' it down? There's so much love to share I'm singin' to the world, don't you see it all comes around? The feeling's everywhere We've been closin' our eyes, day after day Covered in clouds, losin' our way
Hey, but it's daybreak If you wanna believe, it can be daybreak Ain't no time to grieve Said it's daybreak, if you'll only believe And let it shine, shine, shine All around the world
Yes, and it's daybreak If you wanna believe, it can be daybreak Ain't no time to grieve Said it's daybreak, if you'll only believe And let it shine, shine, shine All around the world Let it shine, shine, shine All around the world
Yes, and it's daybreak If you wanna believe, it can be daybreak Ain't no time to grieve Said it's daybreak, if you'll only believe And let it shine, shine, shine All around the world C'mon and let it shine, shine, shine All around the world
