Where is my love, Kamalani?

Here in this paradise

If I Had Wings (David Hughes)


If I Had Wings
Composer(s): Sam Fiedel; John Klenner
Performer(s): David Hughes



If I had wings
No sea would be too wide
To keep me from your side
If I had wings

If I had wings
No star would be too far
I'd fly to where you are
If I had wings

Let fools be kings and rule the world with gold
Let my heart bring a love that can't grow old

If I had wings
We'd never be apart
I'd fly into your heart
If I had wings

Let fools be kings and rule the world with gold
Let my heart bring a love that can't grow old

If I had wings
We'd never be apart
I'd fly into your heart
If I had wings

If I Had Three Wishes


If I Had Three Wishes
Composer(s): C. Baum; Lew Spence
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra



Oh, if I had three wishes, my first would be for you
And if you became my love, I'd return the other two
Oh, if I had three wishes, I'd ask for you alone
All the other things I want will be mine when you're my own
But if you chose me, that I must use the other two
It wouldn't matter, dear, cause here's what I would do
If I had those three wishes, my first would be for you
And the second and the third would be that my first wish comes true

If I Had Only Known


If I Had Only Known
Composer(s): Craig Morris; Jana Stanfield
Performer(s): Reba McEntire



If I had only known
It was the last walk in the rain
I'd keep you out for hours in the storm
I would hold your hand
Like a lifeline to my heart
Underneath the thunder we'd be warm
If I had only known
It was our last walk in the rain

If I had only known
I'd never hear your voice again
I'd memorize each thing you ever said
And on those lonely nights
I could think of them once more
Keep your words alive inside my head
If I had only know
I'd never hear your voice again

You were the treasure in my hand
You were the one who always stood beside me
So unaware I foolishly believed
That you would always be there
But then there came a day
And I turned my head and you slipped away

If I had only known
It was my last night by your side
I'd pray a miracle would stop the dawn
And when you'd smile at me
I would look into your eyes
And make sure you knew my love
For you goes on and on
If I had only known
If I had only known
The love I would've shown
If I had only known

Kansas City


Kansas City
Composer(s): Jerry Leiber; Mike Stoller
Performer(s): Wilbert Harrison;
and various other artists



I'm going to Kansas City, Kansas City here I come
I'm going to Kansas City, Kansas City here I come
They got a crazy way of loving there
And I'm gonna get me some

I'll be standing on the corner
On the corner of Twelfth Street and Vine
I'm gonna be standing on the corner
On the corner of Twelfth Street and Vine
With my Kansas City baby
And a bottle of Kansas City wine

Well I might take a train
I might take a plane, but if I have to walk
I'm gonna get there just the same
I'm going to Kansas City, Kansas City here I come
They got a crazy way of loving there
And I'm gonna get me some

I'm gonna pack my clothes
Leave at the break of dawn
I'm gonna pack my clothes
Everybody will be sleeping
Nobody will know where I've gone
Cause if I stay in town
I know I'm gonna die
Gotta find a friendly city
And that's the reason why
I'm going to Kansas City
Kansas City here I come
They got a crazy way of loving there
And I'm gonna get me some

I'd like to make your golden dreams come true, Dear
If I only had my way
A paradise this world would seem to you, Dear
If I only had my way

You'd never know a care, a pain, or sorrow
If I only had my way
I'd fill your cup of happiness tomorrow
If I only had my way

If I had my way, Dear, forever there'd be
A garden of roses for you and for me
A thousand and one things, Dear, I would do
Just for you, just for you

If I had my way we would never grow old
And sunshine I'd bring every day
You would reign all alone, like a queen on a throne
If I had my way

If I Had My Life To Live Over


If I Had My Life To Live Over
Composer(s): Moe Tobias; Charles Jaffe; Larry Vincent
Performer(s): The Three Suns
and multiple other artists



As I review my life with you
Since the days of old
I wouldn't think of changing things
For all the World and its gold

If I had my life to live over
I'd do the same things again
I'd still want to roam
Near the place we called home
Where my happiness never would end
I'd meet you when school days were over
And we'd walk through the lanes we once knew
If I had my life to live over
I'd still fall in love with you

If I had my life to live over
I'd do the same things again
I'd still want to roam
Near that place we called home
Where my happiness never would end
I'd meet you when school days were over
And we'd walk through the lanes we once knew
If I had my life to live over
I'd still fall in love with you

Yes, if I had my life to live over
I'd still fall in love with you

Kansas City Blues


Kansas City Blues
Composer(s): Ernest Tubb
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb;
Junior Brown; Wayne Hancock



Lord I which I was a catfish swimming in the sea
With lots of pretty women Lordy fishing after me
Then I’d move
Then I’d move
Then I’d move to Kansas City honey, baby where they don’t want you

Now they call me pretty Papa the swellist guy in town
The women’s all crazy about me but my good Gal turned me down
She done moved
She done moved
She done moved to Kansas City honey, baby where they don’t want you

Ah pick that blues out Billy
Instrumentals

Now I went upon Broadway, looking down Biel
Looking for the Gal that they Call Lucile
She done moved
She done moved
She done moved to Kansas City honey, baby where they don’t want you

Now fooling around in Nashville as blue as I can be
Looking for that blond that made a chump out of me
She done moved
She done moved
She done moved to Kansas City honey, baby where they don’t want you

If I Had My Druthers


If I Had My Druthers
Composer(s): Gene De Paul; Johnny Mercer



If I had my druthers
I'd druther have my druthers
Than anything else I know
While you'd druther hustle
accumulatin' muscle
I'd druther watch daisies grow

While they're growin' slow
'n the summer breeze is blowin'
My heart is overflowin' 'n so
If I had my druthers
I'd druther have my druthers
than anything else I know

If I had my druthers
I'd druther have my druthers
Than work any wheres at all
It ain't that I hates it
I often contemplates it
while watchin' the rain drops fall

I sits there for hours
developin' my powers
a figurin' how flowers gets tall
If I had my druthers
I'd druther have my druthers

Kansas City Star


Kansas City Star
Composer(s): Roger Miller
Performer(s): Roger Miller; The Sweetback Sisters;
Huckleberry Flint; The Wilders



Got a letter just this mornin' it was postmarked Omaha
It was typed and neatly written offerin' me this better job
Better job at higher wages, expenses paid and a car
But I'm on TV here locally and I can't quit, I'm a star

Hah-ha I come on the TV a-grinnin,' wearin' pistols and a hat
It's a kiddy show and I'm a hero of the younger set
I'm the number one attraction at every supermarket parkin' lot
I'm the king of Kansas City, no thanks, Omaha, thanks a lot

Kansas City star, that's what I are
Yodel-leedle lay-dee, you oughta see my car
I drive a big old Cadillac with wire wheels
Got rhinestones on the spokes
I got credit down at the grocery store
And my barber tells me jokes
I'm the number one attraction at every supermarket parkin' lot
I'm the king of Kansas City, no thanks to Omaha, thanks a lot

Kansas City star, that's what I are
Yodel-leedle lay-dee, you oughta see my car
I drive a big old Cadillac with wire wheels,
Got rhinestones on the spokes
I got credit down at the grocery store
And my barber tells me jokes
I'm the number one attraction at every supermarket parkin' lot
I'm the king of Kansas City, no thanks to Omaha, thanks a lot

Spoken: Stay tuned, we're gonna have a Popeye cartoon in a minute

If I Had Any Sense Left At All


If I Had Any Sense Left At All
Composer(s): Hank Cochran; Red Lane; Dale Dodson
Performer(s): Reba McEntire



I can feel the darkness reaching in
As I touch the place you may as well have never been
Love can hurt much more than one can bear
When a heart beats for someone who's not there

How many times must I tell myself that you're gone
When will the rest of me wake up and see what went wrong... So wrong
And turn on the light and pick up the phone and just call
And lay pride aside
If I had any sense left at all

Voices call that only I can hear
Who would have thought love was something I would fear
Almost home, almost there, almost taste
On my mind, in my heart, on my face

How many times must I tell myself that you're gone
When will the rest of me wake up and see what went wrong... So wrong
And turn on the light and pick up the phone and just call
And lay pride aside
If I had any sense left at all

Oh just lay pride aside
If I had any sense left at all

Kanske Var Min Kind Lite Het


Kanske Var Min Kind Lite Het
English Title: Maybe My Cheek Was A Little Hot
Composer(s): Agnetha Fältskog
Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog




Timmen hade blivit sen
När jag plötsligt såg dig vid entréen
Du var ensam
Jag som drömt om dig var då
Hade inte svårt att svara ja
När du bad om en dans

Refräng:
Kanske var min kind lite het
Varför var jag blyg när du log mot mig
För en kort sekund stod allting still
Jag önskar att du känt detsamma
Kanske var min kind lite het
Älskade förlåt att jag tryckte din hand
Men det var så skönt att ha dig nära
Att känna dig intill

Aldrig har jag älskat så
Undrar om du nånsin ska förstå
Hur jag känner
Hoppet finns ju ändå kvar
Jag ska alltid minnas hur det var
När du tog min hand

Refräng

Kanske var min kind
Kanske var min kind
Kanske var min kind lite het

If I Had Any Pride Left At All


If I Had Any Pride Left At All
Composer(s): John Greenbaum; Troy Seals; Eddie Setser
Performer(s): John Berry
and multiple other artists



I wouldn't count the times we talked about tomorrow
And I wouldn't sing the lines if some one played our song
On lonely nights like this when I need a friend
You'd be the last one I'd call
Oh if I had any pride left at all

I would keep a place just to set your picture
Reach out to touch your face and feel you in my arms
And I wouldn't be here now parked outside your house
Not ashamed to crawl oh if I had any pride left at all

And only a fool would still be wearing this ring
Ringing your front doorbell

And I wouldn't let my heart stay wrapped around your finger
And I wouldn't fall apart when you open the door
Like all the other times when your eyes met mine
These teardrops wouldn't fall
Oh if I had any pride left at all

Oh if I had any pride left at all

Karen


Karen Composer(s): Jack Marshall; Bob Mosher Performer(s): The Surfaris



She's a doll, she's a queen, she's a tantalizing teen And Karen is her name (they call her Karen) At a party she's a stomper and a rock and rollin' romper Everybody's glad she came Hey that's Karen She sets her hair with great precision It's her favorite indoor sport And by the light of television She can even write a book report There is no one greater north or south of the equator Karen's always in a whirl She's alarming but disarming, and a really very charming modern girl

If I Had A Talking Picture Of You


If I Had A Talking Picture Of You
Composer(s): Lew Brown; Buddy DeSylva; Ray Henderson
Performer(s): Jack Hylton's Orch.
and multiple other artists



If I had a talking picture of you
I would run it every time I felt blue
I would sit there in the gloom of my lonely little room
And applaud each time you whispered, "I love you; love you"

On the screen the moment you came in view
We would talk the whole thing over, we two
I would give ten shows a day
and a midnight matinee
If I had a talking picture of you

Karen''s Song


Karen''s Song
Performer(s): Grant Ames



Karen, Karen, I don't wanna learn to live without you
today you're leaving, and tonight I'm gonna dream about you...
but the plane is calling and you gotta get going
and I don't know whether you'll be back tomorrow...
so I'll keep smiling, I'll hide the hurting,
I'll ask you baby can I drive you out there...

When you're flying, tell me baby are you thinking of me
I'm not crying but I don't know if you really love me
but the plane is calling and you gotta get going
and I don't know whether you'll be back tomorrow...
so I'll swallow my questions and live for the moment
and the joy we share when we're together...

Every minute, that you're with me's like a happy hour
when you're in it, my life just begins to flower...
but the plane is calling and you gotta get going
and I don't know whether you'll be back tomorrow...
so I'll keep trying and I'll keep hoping
and maybe someday soon there'll be a tomorrow...

My heart is beating, but I sometimes don't know why without you
I watched you leaving, and I don't why I couldn't stop you...
yeah your new life is calling and you've gotta get going
and I know you won't be back tomorrow...
but I want you to love me and I want you to touch me,
and I just don't wanna live without you

Karen, Karen, I'll try to learn to live without you
I'm still grieving, gotta give up all my dreams about you
yeah the plane is calling and you've gotta get going
and I don't think there'll ever be a tomorrow...
so I'll remember the good times and the things you taught me
the joy we shared, the joy and the sorrow

Karen, Karen
the joy and the sorrow
the dreams of tomorrow
for Karen...
and me....

If I Had A Rocket Launcher


If I Had A Rocket Launcher
Composer(s): Bruce Cockburn
First release by: Bruce Cockburn - 1984
Covered by multiple other artists



Here comes the helicopter -- second time today
Everybody scatters and hopes it goes away
How many kids they've murdered only God can say
If I had a rocket launcher...I'd make somebody pay

I don't believe in guarded borders and I don't believe in hate
I don't believe in generals or their stinking torture states
And when I talk with the survivors of things too sickening to relate
If I had a rocket launcher...I would retaliate

On the Rio Lacantun, one hundred thousand wait
To fall down from starvation -- or some less humane fate
Cry for guatemala, with a corpse in every gate
If I had a rocket launcher...I would not hesitate

I want to raise every voice -- at least I've got to try
Every time I think about it water rises to my eyes
Situation desperate, echoes of the victims cry
If I had a rocket launcher...Some son of a bitch would die
