Do you remember when we met
That's the day I knew you were my pet

Come with me, my love
To the sea, the sea of love
I wanna tell you just how much I love you
Come with me to the sea of love
Do you remember when we met
That's the day I knew you were my pet
I wanna tell you, oh, how much I love you
Come with me to the sea of love
Come with me, my love
To the sea, the sea of love

I wanna tell you, oh, how much I love you

Socko The Smallest Snowball
Socko The Smallest Snowball
Composer(s): Freddie Morgan; Dave Myers
Performer(s): The Bell Sisters
You've all heard of Alice
In Wonderland
Well, we have a little story
We hope you'll understand
It's about a little snowball
We met the other day
He actually spoke to us!
And this is what he had to say
I'm Socko the smallest snowball
But I never get a chance to play
What fun for the other snowballs
To be thrown back and forth all day
The kids all built a great big fort
With snowballs big and round
But when the battle finished
I was still there on the ground
Oh, if they would only try me
I'm small but I'm so fully packed
I'm sure if I hit a window
That window would be all cracked
The sun will soon be here they say
And then I guess I'll melt away
So please somebody come and play
With Socko the smallest snowball
Oh, how I wish that I could be
On top of some big hill
Then I would roll right off and start
To roll and roll until
I'd get so big that all the kids
Would point at me and stare
And say I was the biggest, biggest
Snowball anywhere
But, I'm, Socko the smallest snowball
And it seems I never have much fun
I'll bet if somebody would throw me
I could make all the other kids run
One day a man chased all the kids
He was so big and fat
Oh, how the children laughed
When I knocked off his big silk hat
Oh, why must I be so little?
I wish I was real big instead
Then if they built a snowman
I might even be the head
With two big eyes
A great big smile
I'd make the kiddies
Laugh all the while
Please somebody, give a trial
To Socko the smallest snowball

Sea Of Love (Paul Brady)
Sea Of Love
Composer(s): Paul Brady
Performer(s): Paul Brady
Something in this mad town thrills me so
Just one taste, and the juices flow
Sure, I'd get crazy here before too long
But right now, girl, I feel the tap is turned on
Lately I've been fading away
Like a old torn photograph, fingered and grey
Losing myself inside this thing we share
(Boom! Boom!)Babe, I'm coming up for air!
Dancing to the beat of the city at night
No use in pretending that it won't feel right
The power, the passion, the hunger in the eyes
Something in this child's still in love with those lies
We're together and you know it's true
All I ever wanted was to be with you
But sometimes I wonder how this dream can last
When the best part of me keeps sinking so fast (feels like)
Drowning in a sea of love
Going down for the third time, Baby
Drowning in a sea of love
Tumbling down
And I'm praying to the stars above
`Take me up to where my soul don't cry!'
Cos I'm drowning in a sea of love
Tumbling down, tumbling down
Now, I know darlin' it's a weakness in me
Nothing that you do says I can't be free
I dip in my foot till the toe gets wet
Then I run home crying `Is this all I get?'
Frightened to go, frightened to stay
Frightened that our lovelight's fading away
Somebody tell me how a man survives
With his body and soul livin' separate lives (cos I'm)
Drowning in a sea of love
Going down for the third time, Baby
Drowning in a sea of love
Tumbling down
And I'm praying to the stars above
`Take me up to where my soul don't cry!'
Cos I'm drowning in a sea of love
Tumbling down, tumbling down
Tumbling down, tumbling down

Sea Of Joy
Sea Of Joy
(Italian Version: Al Ristorante - 1970)
Composer(s): Steve Winwood
First release by: Blind Faith - 1969
Covered by multiple other artists
Following the shadows of the skies
Or are they only figments of my eyes?
And I'm feeling close to when the race is run
Waiting in our boats to set sail
Sea of joy
Once the door swings open into space
And I'm already waiting in disguise
Is it just a thorn between my eyes?
Waiting in our boats to set sail
Sea of joy
Having trouble coming through
Through this concrete blocks my view
And it's all because of you
Oh, is it just a thorn between my eyes?
Waiting in our boats to set sail
Sea of joy
Sea of joy
Sea of joy
Sailing free
Sea of joy

Snow
Snow
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
Performer(s): Bing Crosby
Snow, snow, snow, snow, snow
It won't be long before we'll all be there with snow
Snow, snow, I wanna wash my hands
my face and hair with snow
Snow...I long to clear a path, and lift a spade of snow
Snow, oh, to see a great big man entirely made of snow
Snow, where it's snowing all winter through
That's where I want to be
Snowball throwing, that's what I'll do
How I'm longing to ski through the
Snow, snow, snow, snow, snow
Those glist'ning houses that seem to be built of snow
Snow, oh, to see a mountain covered with a quilt of snow
What is Christmas with no snow?
No white Christmas with no snow
Snow...
I'll soon be there with snow, I'll wash my hair with snow
And with a spade of snow, I'll build a man that's made of snow
I'd like to stay up with you, but I recommend a little shut-eye
Go to sleep, and dream of snow, snow, snow, snow

(Danish Version: To Blå Øjne - 1969)
Composer(s): Paul Hamilton; Hal David
First release by: Don Gibson - 1961
Covered by multiple other artists
The lights in the harbour, don't shine for me
I'm like a lost ship, adrift on the sea
The sea of heartbreak
Lost love and loneliness
Memories of your caress
So divine, how I wish
You were mine, again my dear
I'm on this sea of tears
Sea of heartbreak
How did I lose you?
Oh, where did I fail?
Why did you leave me?
Always to sail
This sea of heartbreak
Lost love and loneliness
Memories of your caress
So divine, how I wish
You were mine, again my dear
I'm on this sea of tears
Sea of heartbreak
Oh, what I'd give to sail back to shore
Back to your arms once more
Come to my rescue
Come here to me
Take me and keep me
Away from the sea
The sea of heartbreak
Lost love and loneliness
Memories of your caress
So divine, how I wish
You were mine, again my dear
I'm on the sea of tears
Sea of heartbreak
Sea of heartbreak
Sea of heartbreak

Snoopy's Christmas
Snoopy's Christmas
Composer(s): Luigi Creatore; Hugo Peretti; George David Weiss
Performer(s): The Royal Guardsmen; Mike Andes
O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum
[Oh Christmas tree, Oh Christmas tree]
du kannst mir sehr gefallen!
[Of all the trees most lovely]
The news had come out in the First World War
The bloody Red Baron was flying once more
The Allied command ignored all of its men
And called on Snoopy to do it again
Twas the night before Christmas, 40 below
When Snoopy went up in search of his foe
He spied the Red Baron, fiercely they fought
With ice on his wings Snoopy knew he was caught
Christmas bells those Christmas bells
Ring out from the land
Asking peace of all the world
And good will to man
The Baron had Snoopy dead in his sights
He reached for the trigger to pull it up tight
Why he didn't shoot, well, we'll never know
Or was it the bells from the village below
Christmas bells those Christmas bells
Ringing through the land
Bringing peace to all the world
And good will to man
The Baron made Snoopy fly to the Rhine
And forced him to land behind the enemy lines
Snoopy was certain that this was the end
When the Baron cried out, "Merry Christmas, my friend"
The Baron then offered a holiday toast
And Snoopy, our hero, saluted his host
And then with a roar they were both on their way
Each knowing they'd meet on some other day
Christmas bells those Christmas bells
Ringing through the land
Bringing peace to all the world
And good will to man
Christmas bells those Christmas bells
Ringing through the land
Bringing peace to all the world
And good will to man

All The Way From America
All The Way From America
Composer(s): Joan Armatrading
Performer(s): Joan Armatrading
You called all the way from America and said
"Hang on to love, Girl"
But the weeks and the months and the tears passed by
And my eyes couldn't stand the strain
Of that promised love
All the way from America
You called all the way from America and said
"I'll soon be home, Girl"
But the years and the tears and the fears passed by
And my heart couldn't stand the pain
Of that promised love
All the way from America
All the way from America
I stayed all alone and I waited `round
For you to knock at my door
But the knock never came, and no ring at all
And now I sit and wonder why
You made that first call
All the way from America
I don't believe I'll stay here
I don't think I want to wait here anymore
And if you search for me, Baby
Better bring some more love
Than you declared
All the way from America

La Croisière Des Souvenirs
La Croisière Des Souvenirs
(Adapted from: Sea Cruise - 1959)
Composer(s): Huey Smith; Long Chris, Pierre Billon
Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday - 1977
On va faire un tour sur le boulevard du rock'n'roll
À cinq dans la TR3, il faudra que ça décolle
Et le rictus d'Elvis sera mon seul sourire
Pour faire la croisière de mes souvenirs
Oh oui! Souvenirs
Oh oui! Souvenirs
Oh oui! Souvenirs
Partons en croisière sur mes souvenirs
Ressors ton vieux jeans et ton blouson noir
Un clin d'œil à Jim et be bop a lula
Sors le transistor au bord d'un terrain vague
Rallume une Lucky et regarde ma bague
La tête de mort aux yeux qui brillent
C'est ça la croisière de mes souvenirs
Oh oui! Souvenirs
Oh oui! Souvenirs
Oh oui! Souvenirs
Partons en croisière sur mes souvenirs
Ressors ton vieux jeans et ton blouson noir
Un clin d'œil à Jim et be bop a lula
On va faire un tour sur le boulevard du rock'n'roll
Accompagné de Little Richard et des folles
Et de Jerry Lee et Buddy Holly
Pour faire la croisière de mes souvenirs
Oh oui! Souvenirs
Oh oui! Souvenirs
Oh oui! Souvenirs
Partons en croisière sur mes souvenirs
Ressors ton vieux jeans et ton blouson noir
Un clin d'œil à Jim et be bop a lula
Ouais
Be bop a lula she's my baby
Be bop a lula I don't mean maybe
Be bop a lula she's my baby
Partons en croisière sur nos souvenirs
Be bop a lula she's my baby
Be bop a lula she's my baby
Partons en croisière sur nos souvenirs
Souvenirs, ouais, souvenirs
Je t'attendrai là, là, jusqu'à minuit

Slow As Christmas
Slow As Christmas
Composer(s): Clint Black; Hayden Nicholas
Performer(s): Clint Black
You're as slow as Christmas, I was up before the dawn
Up so fast I missed it, or is that old saying wrong
Ev'ry Christmas Day makes ev'ry other day seem long
What seemed would never get here has so quickly come and gone
I've heard old sayin's, old clichés, and most o' them make sense
But we're wiser in our younger days, not easily convinced
There's no way to look ahead with the wool over your eyes
It seems that Santa's sled isn't the only thing that flies
You're as slow as Christmas, I was up before the dawn
Up so fast I missed it, or is that old saying wrong
Ev'ry Christmas Day makes ev'ry other day seem long
What seemed would never get here has so quickly come and gone
We're bringin' in another year, let's throw that old one back
A fine new train, I'll be the engineer and hurry down the track
While I know that time is standin' still, I hear that old cliché
And I'm more convinced it does until that one December day
When I'm as slow as Christmas, I'll be up before the dawn
I'm not gonna miss this, I know that old saying's wrong
Ev'ry Christmas Day makes ev'ry other day seem long
What seemed would never get here has so quickly come and gone
Come and gone

Sleepy Head
Composer(s): Walter Donaldson; Gus Kahn
Performer(s): The Mills Brothers
Sleepy Head, come on, get out of bed
Ain't you heard the rooster crow?
Must've been a week ago
Good-for-nothing Sleepy Head
Sleepy Head, see the sun so bright and red?
He's been up and ridin' high, but you just let the time go by
Good-for-nothing Sleepy Head
Sleepy Head, I'd take away that bed
But you're such a lazy pup, you'd be sleeping standing up
Good-for-nothing Sleepy Head
Sleepy Head, underworked and over fed
Gonna sleep the day away, "But this is such a sleepy day
"I wanna be a Sleepy Head"
Sleepy Head, got to get you out of bed
"You just stand around and shout until you get me tuckered out
I'm bound to be a Sleepy Head"
Big boy, don't you know today is Sunday?
That's no day to lay around and doze
"Sunday is the day I sleep til Monday
That's the way I save my go-to-meetin' clothes"
Sleepy Head, you're gonna be a long time dead
Gabriel's gonna blow his horn, but you won't hear it if it's morn
Good-for-nothing Sleepy Head
"I heard you!" Good-for-nothing Sleepy Head

Sea Child
Sea Child
Composer(s): Jorma Kaukonen
Performer(s): Hot Tuna
Daily things fall off like water
falling down like summer rain
We see each other in confusion
Wonder why we came today
Sittin' lonely in our prison
lookin' out for ways to sail
What we'd be without confusion
in our less uncommon way
Through your hair across my eyes
the twilight shafts in soft surprise
Reminds me once again how nice
it is to be with you

Sea Change
Sea Change
Composer(s): Peter Tork
Performer(s): Peter Tork
I drank your deep sea water
Kneeling at your shore
Felt your changes in my body
Came crawling back for more
Screeching seagulls, moaning whales
Dare me to exist
Do I enter Mother Ocean
Do I dare resist?
I give up
I surrender to your charms
Take me down into your depths
And let me drown in your arms
Take me down
Take me down
Take me down
Take me down
Shape me, bend me to your will
Only give me time
To learn to seek your will for me
And to ease your mind
And I will do my best for you
Each moment that I'm able
I only want to please you
As I lie here in your cradle
Take me down
Take me down
Take me down
Take me down
Let the ocean waters wreak their
Darkness black as coal
Drown the old me, make me over
Claim my soul
Take me down
Take me down
Take me down
Take me down

Sleigh Bell Serenade
Sleigh Bell Serenade
Composer(s): Sonny Burke; Paul Francis Webster
Performer(s): Bing Crosby
When your nose is all a tingle
And you're glidin' down the glade
Can't you hear the jolly jingle
Of the sleigh bell serenade
Every tree's a frozen statue
In a winter masquerade
And the moon is winking at you
'Tis a sleigh bell serenade
In the summer on a hay ride, night or day ride
You can pass the cider jug
But in the winter, every sleigh ride is a gay ride
You can sneak a hug `neath the old bear rug
All the world's a wide umbrella
For a fella and his mate
What a lovely night to tell her
'Tis a sleigh bell serenade
(When your nose is all a tingle)
(And you're glidin' down the glade)
Can't you hear the jolly tingle
Of the sleigh bell serenade
Every tree's a frozen statue
In a winter masquerade
And the moon is winking at you
'Tis a sleigh bell serenade
(In the dunder on a hay ride, night or day ride)
(You can pass the cider jug)
Ah, but in the winter, every sleigh ride is a gay ride
You can sneak a hug `neath the old bear rug
(All the world's a wide umbrella)
For a fella and his mate
What a lovely night to tell her
'Tis a sleigh bell serenade
(What a lovely night to tell her)
'Tis a sleigh bell serenade

Sea Breeze
Sea Breeze
Composer(s): James Joiner
Performer(s): Jim Reeves
I saw a ship a-sailing
On the ocean blue
I ran right down to the ocean side
In hopes that it was you
So long ago you left me
To sail to a foreign land
But when that ship went sailing by
My hopes dropped to the sand
Sea breeze, ocean wave
Bring my lover please
Turn her sails toward my heart
And bring her back to me
The rising sun reminds me
Of the day she had to go
She set her sails to the morning tide
And filled my heart with woe
She told me when she left me
She'd sail to many shores
But her heart, her dreams, would always be
With the one that she loved so
Sea breeze, ocean wave
Bring my lover please
Turn her sails toward my heart
Bring her back to me
Bring her back to me
Bring her back to me

Sleep well, little children
Wherever you are
Tomorrow is Christmas
Beneath every star
Soon the snowflakes will fall

Every wish, one and all
Waiting under the tree

Pleasant dreams through the night
Tomorrow is Christmas
All merry and bright
Soon you'll hear the bells ring
Time for dreams to come true
As the world wakes to bring
Merry Christmas to you
