Thinkin' of a Rendezvous Composer(s): Bobby Braddock - Sonny Throckmorton Performer(s): Johnny Duncan & Janie Fricke
I said, "Hello, my it's been such a long time" You said, "Yes, it has, it's been a year or more" Then you smiled and asked about my wife and family I said, "Johnny's six and Judy's almost four"
But I was thinking how I'd love to get you alone for one hour Down at the Family Inn like we used to do We kept talking like nothing ever happened But I was making small talk, thinking of a rendezvous
You said, "Are you still working down at the factory" I said, "Yes I am, guess I'll be there 'til I die" You asked me if I still went down to Joe's Place I said, "Yeah, I do, but it's been a long, long time"
But I was thinking how I'd love to get you alone for one hour Down at the Family Inn like we used to do We kept talking like nothing ever happened But I was making small talk, thinking of a rendezvous
And you said, "Gotta go, sure been nice to see you But I told Jack that I'd be home by nine" I said, "By the way, tell him I said hello And we'll all have to get together sometime"
But I was thinking how I'd love to get you alone for one hour Down at the Family Inn like we used to do We kept talking like nothing ever happened But I was making small talk, thinking of a rendezvous
Think Twice Before You Go Composer(s): John Lee Hooker - Al Smith First recording/First release by: John Lee Hooker - 1967/1968 Covered by multiple other artists
Think twice before you go, baby, this will be the end Think twice before you go, baby, this will be the end You done leave me one time, baby you'll leave again
Dig in and suffer with me, an' I know you paid your dues Dig in and suffer with me baby, an' I know you paid your dues You done leave me when I need you, then I know you stand accused
Doing the man who loves you wrong Breaking the heart you should be ruling Doing the man who loves you wrong I go for a lot of things, but you're a little too strong
Think twice before you go, baby this will be the end Think twice before you go, baby this will be the end You done leave me one time, baby, you'll leave again Ha
Think Twice Composer(s): Joe Shapiro - Jimmy Williams - Clyde Otis Performer(s): Brook Benton
Think twice before you answer Think twice before you say 'Yes' I'm asking you if you love me true 'Cause you're my happiness
Take your time, think it over Think twice, then let me know If you don't feel that your love is real Tell me, although you'll hurt me so
Funny how a word can mean everything That's why I want you to talk to me To hear you say my name I'd give anything Only you can decide what my future will be
Think twice before you answer Think twice, whatever you do A love as strong as mine can stand the test of time Think twice of the one who loves you
They say that the left side of the brain Controls the right They say that the right side Has to work hard all night Maybe I think too much for my own good Some people say so Other people say no no The fact is You don't think as much as you could hmmm I had a childhood that was mercifully brief I grew up in a state of disbelief I started to think too much When I was twelve going on thirteen Me and the girls from St. Augustine Up in the mezzanine Thinking about God Maybe I think too much Maybe I think too much Maybe I think too much Maybe I think too much Have you ever experienced a period of grace When your brain just takes a seat behind your face And the world begins The Elephant Dance Everything's funny Everyone's sunny You take out your money And walk down the road That leads me to the girl I love The girl I'm always thinking of But maybe I think too much And I ought to just hold her Stop trying to mold her Maybe blindfold her And take her away Maybe I think too much Maybe I think too much Maybe I think too much Maybe I think too much
Think Of The Good Times Composer(s): Wes Farrell - Roy Alfred Performer(s): Jay & the Americans
You were the only one I could see Now that we're through, if you think of me Think of the good times, only the good times Walks in the rain, warm summer nights Remember the kisses and not just the fights
One foolish moment drove us apart If there's a spark still left in your heart Think of the good times, only the good times You in my arms, two hearts like one Don't tell me that it is over and done
Once we promised we'd love forever (way back then) Can't we let these wonderful memories bring us together again
If you'll admit you think of me yet Darlin' come back, forgive and forget Think of the good times, we'll only have good times Your lips on mine (where they belong) Where they belong But this time we won't let our good times go wrong
We'll think of the good times, only the good times Yeah, we'll think of the good times, only the good times Oh, we'll think of the good times, only the good times
Think Of Me Thinking Of You Performer(s): Leon Redbone
When all your joys, like broken toys, lie at your feet And you have learned that life is just a game When you confess that happiness is bittersweet Remember me - I still will be the same
When your day has passed away And skies are grey, sweetheart Think of me thinking of you
Remember, too, that only you Can keep us two apart Think of me thinking of you
My future lies within your eyes Where love lights used to shine I'd give my all to hear the call That tells me you are mine
And if it's true that someone new Is calling you, sweetheart Think of me thinking of you
Think Of Laura Composer(s): Christopher Cross - Rob Meurer Performer(s): Christopher Cross
Every once in a while I'd see her smile And she'd turn my day around A girl with those eyes could stare through the lies And see what your heart was saying
Think of Laura but laugh don't cry I know she'd want it that way When you think of Laura laugh don't cry I know she'd want it that way
A friend of a friend, a friend till the end That's the kind of girl she was Taken away so young Taken away without a warning
I know you and you're here In everyday we live I know her and she's here I can feel her when I sing
Hey Laura, where are you now Are you far away from here I don't think so I think you're here Taking our tears away
Think of Laura but laugh don't cry I know she'd want it that way When you think of Laura laugh don't cry I know she'd want it that way

Think it over, what you've just said Think it over in your pretty little head Are you sure think I'm not the one is your love real or only fun?

Think it over Yes, think it over A lonely heart grows cold and old
Think it over, over and over Think it over, over and over

Ooh, something's got a hold of me now It's a feeling, burnin' up like I'm on fire Hold me tight babe, don't leave me by myself tonight 'Cause I don't think I can make it through the night
I think I'm in love And my life's lookin' up I think I'm in love 'Cause I can't get enough I think I'm in love It's gotta be love
It surrounds me, ooh, like a sea of madness It controls me, makes me do all the things I do for you On my mind babe, thinkin' about you now And I don't know if I'll make it through the night
I think I'm in love And my life's lookin' up I think I'm in love 'Cause I can't get enough I think I'm in love It's gotta be love
I think I'm in love and love's enough
I think I'm in love And my life's lookin' up I think I'm in love 'Cause I can't get enough I think I'm in love It's gotta be love

Think I'll Go Somewhere And Cry Myself To Sleep Composer(s): Bill Anderson First release by: Bill Anderson - 1966 Covered by multiple other artists
Think I'll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep
I just kissed the one I love for the last time And never have her soft lips been so sweet She's gone away and won't be back forever Think I'll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep
I'll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep Not because I'm sad-because I'm weak I can't stand the thought of life alone without her Think I'll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep
Just before she said "goodbye" she called me "darling" And slowly ran her fingers down my cheek I thought I'd die when she said she still loved me Think I'll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep
I'll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep Not because I'm sad-because I'm weak I can't stand the thought of life alone without her Think I'll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep
Think About Love Composer(s): Michel LeGrand - Alan Bergman - Marilyn Bergman Performer(s): Patti Austin & James Ingram
Love is only the beginning What a sweet beginning Sunny skies ahead, like the weatherman said Did it ever feel this good before? Could you get much more from a kiss? Here with you, it's easy to think about love
You think about me (you think about me) I'll think about you (I'll think about you) And all of the crazy things that we can do I know what waits for us after we've wined and dined The train's got two tracks, but I've got a one-track mind
Love me like it's for the first time And then imagine it's the last time Only you and me, like we dreamed it would be Soon the early morning sun will rise But we'll close our eyes to it all Then day or night, dark or light, we'll think about love
You think about me (you think about me) I'll think about you (I'll think about you) And all of the crazy things that we can do I know what waits for us after we've wined and dined The train's got two tracks, but I've got a one-track mind
So it's goodbye, Loneliness We're leaving you and your kind behind We're starting out, we're on our way Saying with loving all there is to say
You think about me (you think about me) I'll think about you (I'll think about you) And all of the crazy things that we can do I know what waits for us after we've wined and dined The train's got two tracks, but I've got a one-track mind

Lord, I can't remember When it's not my fault I tried so hard to please you At least that's what I thought
So come on, sugar, and

You say you will love me If I have to go You'll be thinking of me Somehow I will know Someday when I'm lonely Wishing you weren't so far away Then I will remember The things we said today You say you'll be mine, girl Until the end of time These days such a kind girl Seems so hard to find Someday when we're dreaming Deep in love, not a lot to say Then we will remember The things we said today Me, I'm just the lucky kind Love to hear you say that love is luck And, though we may be blind Love is here to stay And that's enough To make you mine, girl Be the only one Love me all the time, girl We'll go on and on Someday when we're dreaming Deep in love, not a lot to say Then we will remember The things we said today Love me all the time, girl We'll go on and on Someday when we're dreaming Deep in love, not a lot to say Then we will remember The things we said today
Ces Mots Quon Oublie Un Jour ((Adapted from: Things We Said Today (The Beatles) - 1964)) Composer(s): John Lennon - Paul McCartney - Dick Rivers - Mya Simille Performer(s): Dick Rivers - 1964
Tu dis que tu m'aimes Que tu m'attendras Tu as de la peine Je pars loin de toi Tu dis que l'absence Rendra plus fort encore notre amour On dit ces mots-là, oui Qu'on oublie un jour
Pourquoi me promettre Ta fidélité? Pourquoi me permettre En vain d'espérer? Garde le silence! Plus tard mon cur sera bien moins lourd Car on dit des mots, oui Qu'on oublie un jour
Pourtant, je voudrais comme toi Garder l'espoir qu'à mon retour Tout sera comme autrefois Que je retrouverai ton amour Hein, hein, hein, hein
Malgré tes promesses J'ai peur loin de toi De tant de jeunesse De tant d'heures sans moi Dans ton innocence Tu jures d'attendre mon retour On dit ces mots-là, oui Qu'on oublie un jour
Pourtant, je voudrais comme toi Garder l'espoir qu'à mon retour Tout sera comme autrefois Que je retrouverai ton amour Hein, hein, hein, hein
Tu dis que tu m'aimes Que tu m'attendras Tu as de la peine Je pars loin de toi Tu dis que l'absence Rendra plus fort encore notre amour On dit ces mots-là, oui Qu'on oublie un jour
Things To Do In Denver When You're Dead Performer(s): Warren Zevon
I called up my friend LeRoy on the phone I said, Buddy, I'm afraid to be alone I got some weird ideas in my head About things to do in Denver when you're dead
I was working on a steak the other day I saw Waddy in the Rattlesnake Cafe Dressed in black, tossing back a shot of rye Finding things to do in Denver when you die
You won't need a cab to find a priest Maybe you should find a place to stay Some place where they never change the sheets And you just roll around Denver all day
LeRoy says there's something you should know Not everybody has a place to go And home is just a place to hang your head And dream up things to do in Denver when you're dead
You won't need a cap to find a priest Maybe you should find a place to stay Some place where they never change the sheets And you jut roll around Denver all day You just roll around Denver all day
Things I'd Like To Say Performer(s): New Colony Six
Baby is he looking after you Is he showing you the same love The warm love just like we knew Baby, baby, it's you I'm thinking of In the morning when I wake up In the evening, it's you that I dream of Sometimes love hurts and sometimes love's unkind And sometimes you might feel blue But remember now darlin If his words are real This will never, never happen to you Baby, baby these things I'd like to say I was hoping that with our love We would get married some day
