Nothing To Declare Composer(s): Steve Hogarth Performer(s): Steve Hogarth
A hundred thousand hearts a day Are vacuumed in along these runways In specks of iron from around the world Drawn to the magnetism in this place I've watched them land in the Heathrow haze Through 'Nothing to Declare' into cars that speed away
I'm watching the aeroplanes comin' in Waiting for a miracle Watching the aeroplanes comin' in Wonderin' if I'll see you again Wonder if I'll see you again
I understand how you had to leave You said 'back soon' and I must believe My feelings haven't changed since that fateful day You left me grounded and you flew away
Over my house into the clouds To foreign lands in the sunshine I watch the seven forty sevens climb Over my house into the clouds To foreign lands in the sunshine
I wave bye bye, bye bye,
A hundred thousand hearts a day Come gliding down but they don't explain An empty seat on a sold out flight A year ago on an empty night I watched you down but you never came Through 'Nothing to Declare' like a sign hangin' on my name
I'm watching the aeroplanes comin' in Waiting for a miracle Watching the aeroplanes Wonderin' if I'll see you... again
Nothing Takes The Place Of You Composer(s): Toussaint McCall; Alan Robinson Performer(s): Toussaint McCall; and various other artists
I moved your picture From my walls And I replaced them Both large and small And each new day Finds me so blue Nothing Takes the place of you
I read your letters one by one And I still love you When it's all said and done And oh, my darling, I'm so blue Because nothing Oh nothing Takes the place of you
I, I write this letter It's raining on my window pane I, I feel the need of you Because without you Nothing seems the same
So I'll wait Until you're home Again I love you But I'm all alone And oh my darling I'm so blue Because nothing Oh, but nothing takes the place of you
Nothing Seems To Matter Composer(s): Bonnie Raitt Performer(s): Bonnie Raitt
Seems like such a long time
since I held you in my arms and felt you close and warm beside me another night is getting late and I'm alone with just the ache and the memory of you beside me
Darling, I've never been so blue I've tried to see it through there's nothing I can do I won't make it on my own so won't you please hurry home 'cause nothing seems to matter without you
Last time I saw you there was nothing we could say We knew it was a time for a change a time to think you said that night and I lied and said all right I left you in the morning I watched you in the window and Mexico will never be the same
It was time to be apart but somehow it seems this heart of mine will never find a way to live without you And now I'm out here on the road and I'm feeling bought and sold and tonight I just can't but think about you
Darling, I've never been so blue I've tried to see it through there's nothing I can do I won't make it on my own so darling won't you hurry home because nothing seems to matter without you No, nothing seems to matter without you
Nothing Is Real But The Girl Composer(s): Jimmy Destri Performer(s): Blondie
Some days are all Mondays Sort of time on ice It seems like jet planes On snowed in runways Under clear blue skies Who needs it?
Nothing is real but the girl Nothing is real but her Money goes to money In a figure eight around me Mommy Who's gonna love me if I liquidate and drown me?
Nothing is real but the girl Nothing else feels solid We believe in love We believe in little things Like heaven up above and seven it's a lucky number We believe that something lives inside every thing there is Don't think about it much
I mean it I believe it I believe it Wind down Put your mind down Like your missing school You'll teach her to find out While your dying In your living room How much you need her Nothing is real but the girl Only her eyes are solid Nothing is real but her Nothing is real but the girl
Nothing I Can Do About It Now Composer(s): Beth Nielsen Chapman Performer(s): Willie Nelson
I've got a long list of real good reasons For all the things I've done I've got a picture in the back of my mind Of what I've lost and what I've won I've survived every situation Knowing when to freeze and when to run And regret is just a memory, written on my brow And there's nothing I can do about it now! I've got a wild and a restless spirit I've held my price through every deal I've seen the fire of a woman scorned turn her heart of gold to steel I've got the song of the voice inside me set to the rhythm of the wheel An' I been dreamin' like a child since the cradle broke the bough And there's nothin' I can do about it now!
(Chorus)
Runnin' through the changes Goin' through the stages Comin' round the corners in my life Leavin' doubt to fate Stayin' out too late Waitin' for the moon to say goodniiiigh-hi-hi-hite And I could cry for the time I've wasted But that's a waste of time and tears And I know just what I'd change If I went back in time somehow But there's nothing I can do about it
(Repeat Chorus)
I'm forgiving everything that forgiveness will allow And there's nothin' I can do about it now!!
Nothing From Nothing Composer(s): Billy Preston; Bruce Fisher Performer(s): Billy Preston; and various other artists

Nothing Compares To You Composer(s): Prince Performer(s): Prince
Its been seven hours and fifteen days Since you took your love away I go out every night and sleep all day Since you took your love away Sice youve been gone, I can do whatever I want I can see whoever I choose I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant But nothing, I said nothing can take away these blues Because nothing compares, nothing compares to you
Its been so lonely without you here Like a bird without a song Nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling Tell me baby, where did I go wrong? I can put my arms around every boy I see But they only remind me of you
I went to the doctor and guess what he told me, guess what he told me He said, Girl, youd better try to have some fun no matter what you do But hes a fool Because nothing compares to you
All the flowers that you planted momma, in the backyard All died and withered away I know that living with you baby was sometimes hard But Im willing to try to give it another try
Nothing compared, nothing compares to you Nothing compared, nothing compares to you Nothing compared, nothing compares to you
Nothing Can Change This Love Composer(s): Sam Cooke Performer(s): Sam Cooke; and various other artists
If I go a million miles away I'd write a letter each and every day 'Cause honey, nothin' Nothin' can ever change this love I have for you, ooo Make me weep and you can make me cry See me comin' and you can pass me by But honey, nothin' Nothin' can ever change this love I have for you, wo oh
You're the apple of my eye, you're cherry pie And oh yeah, you're cake and ice cream Oh you're sugar and spice and everything nice You're the girl of my my my my dreams But if you wanted to leave me and roam When you got back, I'd just say welcome home 'Cause honey, nothin', nothin' Nothin' can ever change this love I have for you, no oh
(Instrumental Break)
I know I know I know I know I know that nothin', nothin' Nothin' can ever change the love I have for you
Nothing But Heartaches Composer(s): Brian Holland;
Lamont Dozier; Edward Holland Jr. Performer(s): Diana Ross & The Supremes
Nothing but heartaches Ooh, nothing but heartaches He brings nothing but heartaches I can't break away from his arms I can't break away from his charms I can't break away from his kiss 'Cause his kiss I'll shouldn't miss
All my life I needed someone to need me So I do my very best to please him But the more and more I care The more of him other girls share When I need a hand to hold That's the time he leaves me all alone Just keeps me, keeps me crying myself to sleep
He brings nothing but heartaches Ooh, nothing but heartaches But I can't break away Oh, no keep a loving him more each day Oh, I can't break away from his arms I can't break away from his charms I can't break away from his kiss 'Cause his kiss I'll shouldn't miss
To him I'm loyal, to him I'm true Why can't he be the same way too But the more my love has grown The less love he had shown
He makes promisses he doesn't keep Sometimes I don't see him all week Just keeps me, keeps me crying myself to sleep
He brings nothing but heartaches Ooh, nothing but heartaches But I can't break away Oh, no keep a loving him more each day Oh, I can't break away from his arms I can't break away from his charms I can't break away from his kiss 'Cause his kiss I'll shouldn't miss
Nothing but heartaches Ooh, nothing but heartaches I can't break away, oh no Keep a loving him more each day
Nothin' Shakin' Performer(s): Craig Douglas & Doug Sheldon; The Beatles
I tried to find out what love is all about and every day it sure lets out I see my baby I get week in my knees There's nothing shaking but the leaves on the trees My pappie told me there'd be times like these There's nothing shaking but the leaves on the trees We meet the gang and go to rocking Joes The cats are something on the heels and toes I grab my baby tried to give her a squeeze There's nothing shaking but the leaves on the trees Why must she be such a doggone tease? There's nothing shaking but the leaves on the trees She's got a way that makes me act like a fool Spent my money then she plays me cool I beg her for kisses on my bended knees Oh won't you give me some loving, baby please please please Though I keep trying hard to make her mine one day the wind will blow and the sun will shine Till that time she puts my heart at ease There's nothing shaking but the leaves on the trees She locked my heart and threw away the keys There's nothing shaking but the leaves on the trees, yeah She's got a way that makes me act like a fool Spent my money then she plays me cool I'm begging her for kisses on my bended knees Oh won't you give me some of your loving, baby please please please Though I keep trying hard to make her mine one day the wind will blow and the sun will shine Till that time she puts my heart at ease There's nothing shaking but the leaves on the trees She locked my heart and threw away the keys There's nothing shaking but the leaves on the trees There's nothing shaking but the leaves on the trees There's nothing shaking but the leaves on the trees There's nothing shaking but the leaves on the trees
Nothin' But You Composer(s): Steve Earle Performer(s): Steve Earle; Hillbilly Moon Explosion; Robin Lee
Daddy used to tell me "Don't you drag your feet" "Never seen a good intention that a man could eat" Well, I got about a million things I need to do I don't wanna think about nothin' but you
Everybody talk about Maybellene Yellow Rose Of Texas and the Sweet Sixteen Well, I don't wanna hear about no Peggy Sue I don't wanna think about nothin' but you
I don't need no money, no fancy car House up on the hill where all the rich folks are Well, they can have the whiskey, keep the cocaine, too I don't wanna think about nothin' but you
Everybody talk about Maybellene Yellow Rose Of Texas and the Sweet Sixteen Well, I don't wanna hear about no Peggy Sue I don't wanna think about nothin' but you
Everybody talk about Maybellene Yellow Rose Of Texas and the Sweet Sixteen Well, I don't wanna hear about no Peggy Sue I don't wanna think about nothin' but you
Nothin' At All Composer(s): Mark Mueller Performer(s): Heart
I would walk home every evening Through the pyramids of light I would feed myself on silence Wash it down with empty nights
Then your innocent distractions Hit me so hard My emotional reaction Caught me off guard
It was nothing at all Like anything I had felt before And it was nothing at all Like I thought no it's so much more No one else has ever made Me feel this way When I asked you how you did it You just say It was nothing at all
Now I walk home every evening And my feet are quick to move Cause I know my destination Is a warm and waiting you
From our first communication It was clear Any thought of moderation Would soon disappear
It was nothing at all Like anything I had felt before And it was nothing at all Like I thought no, it's so much more No one else has ever made Me feel this way when I asked you how you did it You just sayIt was nothing at all
Then your innocent distractions Hit me so hard My emotional reaction Caught me off guard
It was nothing at all Like anything I had felt before And it was nothing at all Like I thought no, it's so much more No one else has ever made Me feel this way When I asked you how you did it You just say It was nothing at all
It was nothing at all It was nothing at all It was nothing at all It was nothing at all It was nothing at all It was nothing at all
I cannot see what need there can be For any other people in the world but you and me Yes, go where we may They get in our way I wish we could contrive it Now and then to get a word in private!
Each time I start to pour out my heart Some tactless person comes along and we are driven apart Life might be, my pet A lovely duet But all these folks who bore us Seem to think that we require a chorus
Oh dear! won't it just be splendid In the time that's coming soon When, this weary waiting ended We start our honeymoon None near us to see or hear us The whole wide world we will forget Oh, what joy to stay in your arms all day But not yet um-m Not yet
Not To Touch The Earth Composer(s): John Densmore; Robbie Krieger; Ray Manzarek; Jim Morrison Performer(s): The Doors
Not to touch the earth Not to see the sun Nothing left to do, but Run, run, run Let's run Let's run
House upon the hill Moon is lying still Shadows of the trees Witnessing the wild breeze C'mon baby run with me Let's run
Run with me Run with me Run with me Let's run
The mansion is warm, at the top of the hill Rich are the rooms and the comforts there Red are the arms of luxuriant chairs And you won't know a thing till you get inside
Dead president's corpse in the driver's car The engine runs on glue and tar Come on along, not goin' very far To the East to meet the Czar
Run with me Run with me Run with me Let's run
Whoa!
Some outlaws lived by the side of a lake The minister's daughter's in love with the snake Who lives in a well by the side of the road Wake up, girl, we're almost home
Ya, c'mon!
We should see the gates by mornin' We should be inside the evenin'
Sun, sun, sun Burn, burn, burn Soon, soon, soon Moon, moon, moon I will get you Soon! Soon! Soon!
Not Over You Yet Composer(s): Malik Pendelton; Kenneth "Wally" Kelly Performer(s): Diana Ross
You were the first who ever brought me out Showed me what life and love was all about Gave me things that I never need You're in my thoughts, my every dream
I found joy in your touch, I miss your kisses The way you made me blush Life is cruel now that you're gone I love you so I can't let go, yeah
Not over you yet Not trying to forget The way that you loved me Not over you yet Not trying to forget The way that you loved me
I hate you so for what you done to me Made me fall in love with no security I gotta move on move on my life But it's so hard when you're still on my mind
I found joy in your touch I miss your kisses the way you made me blush Life is cruel now that you're gone I love you so I can't let go I'm crazy for you
Not over you yet Not trying to forget The way that you loved me Not over you yet Not trying to forget The way that you loved me
Not over you yet Not trying to forget The way that you loved me Not over you yet Not trying to forget The way that you loved me
I miss your kisses I miss your touch I'm crazy for you
Not over you yet Not trying to forget The way that you loved me Not over you yet Not trying to forget The way that you loved me
Not over you yet Not trying to forget The way that you loved me Not over you yet Not trying to forget The way that you loved me
Not yet Not over you yet Not trying to forget The way that you loved me Not over you yet Not trying to forget The way that you loved me

Not Mine (aka It's Somebody Else's Moon Above, Not Mine) Composer(s): Victor Schertzinger; Johnny Mercer Performer(s): Peggy Lee; and various other artists
It's somebody else's moon above, not mine It's somebody else's night for love, not mine A heart to someone else is a thing that melts To me it's just a comic Valentine Let somebody else's tear be shed, not mine Let somebody else's nose get red, not mine I like playing solitaire But until I can draw a pair It's somebody else's moon up there, not mine
Not Me Composer(s): King Radio; Don Raye Performer(s): Robert Mitchum
Lets put woman and man together To find out which one is smarter Some say men, but I say No The women play the men like a puppet show

Not For Me Composer(s): Bobby Darin Performer(s): Bobby Darin; Sammy Davis Jr.; Timco
Ballads are being sung But not for me Church bells are being rung But not for me I am without love But I don't doubt love can be Warm and tender for some But not for me Poems are being read But not for me Prayers are being said But not for me I've never known love Or been shown love, you see And maybe there is such a thing But not for me So let all of your singers sing But not for me And let all of your church bells ring But not for me And if tomorrow All your sorrows should be Just like mine then you cry But not for me No, not me Never for me
