Tell Me What You See In Me Composer(s): Dave Cousins Performer(s): Sandy Denny & The Strawbs
My ship sails in On a cloud of broken promises It's just not true Not a single word she says Time will tell Whether I can change my ways It might take years It might even take always
Tell me what you see in me And I'll tell you what I see in you
Your picture melts Before my tired eyes And all it leaves Is just a trace of paradise You'll change again That's what I've been told But don't take long Or I might get too old
Take it easy But take it slow For who knows which way next That wind will blow Time goes by Just as quickly as I want it to And I'll make out Like I never knew
My Little Girl Composer(s): Sam M. Lewis; William Dillon; Albert Von Tilzer
I write these lines to tell you that I'm sorry I Left home because I'm all alone, why did you let me roam Some one put the jinx on me, I'm up against it strong I'm out of work and so I wrote a song the first verse dear is very sweet, because it speaks of you I'm sending you the chorus, read it through
The second verse is not complete, I cannot rhyme the part That goes with aching heart, but I was never smart you know that the chorus is the part that must be heard and now I've got a job to rhyme that word now if this song should make a hit, I'll marry you in June and if it don't there'll be no honeymoon
My little girl you know I love you and I long for you each day my little girl I'm dreaming of you though you're many miles away I see the lane down in wildwood where you promised to be true my little girl I know you're waiting and I'm coming back to you

My Little Angel Composer(s): George Young; Harry Vanda Performer(s): William Shakespeare (aka John Cave)
It was on a cold December afternoon Doesn't seem that long ago I was sitting on my feet by my old fireplace When in walked my little girl home from school And I could see that something was wrong By the tears that were rolling down her face
And she said Daddy, Daddy at school today Somebody told me a lie And after hearin' what she had heard I told her not to cry It hurt to see her cry
Because she's my, my little angel My little angel, my little angel when she smiles Oh yes, she's my, my little angel My little angel, and I don't ever wanna see her cry
What she heard was that angel's didn't really exist That they were just a part of fables, fairytales, any ol' how Of course there are angels I said Everybody has an angel that takes care of them In fact I know there's a real live angel right now
And she said Daddy, Daddy please tell me where And tell me how do you know And I said, easy, if you listen close It's not too far to go And this is how I know
Because you're my, my little angel My little angel, my little angel when you smile Oh yes, you're my, my little angel My little angel, and I don't ever wanna see you cry
Now I miss her dearly since she left that day But I know she is near me every hour, every day Because she's, because she's my, my little angel My little angel, my little angel, yes she's mine
Ah, she's so fine, my little angel, my little angel And I know that she's with me all the time With me all the time, my little angel My little angel, my, my little angel

Tell Me The Old, Old Story Composer(s): Richard L. Weaver
There's a question ever new sweetheart I would ask of you Will you tell me once again the story dear ... It's the theme of life's sweet song, as the ages roll along Making sunshine when the clouds seem near ... In the days of "Auld Lang Syne" those sweet days when you were mine Many hours we pass'd together by the mill ... Time has chang'd us both since then, but I've wandered back again For your answer that you love me still
Now the birds as sweetly sing 'Round the ivy cover'd spring As they did for us sweetheart in time before And I'm waiting here today, fondly hoping you will say That you love me as you did of yore ... When I've travell'd far and near There was naught in life to cheer All the world is shadow'd dearest without you And for each fond joy apart I've the longing in my heart for that dear old story ever new...
Tell me the old, old story, that you love me as of yore ... Others strive for fame and glory I'm content with your love evermore ... Time can never change you sweetheart With your eyes of violet blue ... I'm waiting to be told, the story sweet and old You love me still as I love you
