All Alone In California
All Alone In California
Composer(s): Dan Hill
Performer(s): Dan Hill
He caught her signal
As she strolled in the bar
Amidst all the lonely people
Out to prove they're popular
And he came upon her slowly
Not sure of what to say
Trying to sound clever - but words got in the way
Conversation wandered -
Though their eyes seldom met
They both knew what they were after
And they played it step by step
And his mind was getting foggy
The drinks were coming fast
Momentary friendship - with no future and no past
All alone in California
Looking for some fun
His eyes were feeling heaving
He kind of wished that he could run
The colours started spinning
As she kissed away his doubts
The night was just beginning
As his body began to melt…
She watched the sunrise
While he slept in dreams unknown
And she wondered what his name was
Though she barely knew her own
And she slowly started crying
Though she wasn't white sure why
Trying to fight an emptiness
That haunted her insides
All alone in California
Looking for some fun
His eyes were feeling heaving
He kind of wished that he could run
The colours started spinning
As she kissed away his doubts
The night was just beginning
As his body began to melt…

While The Stars In The Heavens Shine On
While The Stars In The Heavens Shine On
Composer(s): Harry D. Kerr; Henry W. Petrie
Heart of my heart you seem, dear
to doubt that my love is true
Sometimes I think you feel, dear
It may not all be for you
Doubt that the sun is shining, doubt that the sky is blue
doubt the whole world, if you will, dear
but doubt not my love for you
Birds to their mates are singing, the song that they love to hear
each flow'r with sweetend perfume, speaks love to the one that's near
soul speaks to soul, the answer never has yet been wrong
this is love's message to you, dear, and this is my own love song
While the stars in heaven shine on!
While the warm summer sun greets the dawn
the love that I give, will grow stronger and live
till the light of the world will be gone!
With a heart that shall beat just for you
all my vows every day I'll renew tho' the ocean may dry
love like mine shall not die while the stars in the heavens shine on!

All Alone Am I
All Alone Am I
((Adapted from: Min Ton Rotas Ton Ourano (by Tzeni Karezi) - 1959))
((Danish Version: Er Det Helt Forbi (by Birthe Kjær) - 1974))
Composer(s): Yiannis Ioanidis - Manos Hadjidakis - Arnie Altman
Performer(s): Brenda Lee - 1962
and multiple other artists
All alone am I ever since your goodbye
All alone with just a beat of my heart
People all around but I don't hear a sound
Just the lonely beating of my heart
No use in holding other hands
For I'd be holding only emptiness
No use in kissing other lips
For I'd be thinking just of your caress
All alone am I ever since your goodbye
All alone with just a beat of my heart
People all around but I don't hear a sound
Just the lonely beating of my heart
No other voice can say the words
My heart must hear to ever sing again
The words you used to whisper low
No other love can ever bring again
All alone am I ever since your goodbye
All alone with just a beat of my heart
People all around but I don't hear a sound
Just the lonely beating of my heart

While The Music Plays On
While The Music Plays On
Composer(s): Irving Mills; Lupin Fein; Eddie Heim
Performer(s): Tony Bennett;
and various other artists
Each night in some café, I'm on display
Until the dark turns into dawn
Up upon the stand singing with the band
While the music plays on
Each night is just a long and endless song
Until the last couple has gone
Vainly I'm the star singing out my heart
While the music plays on
Oh what madness to discover
Music still possesses all its charms
As I serenade my lover
Dancing by in someone else's arms
But I am not allowed to show the crowd
What happens when romance has gone
I must hid my fears singing through the tears
While the music plays on
Oh what madness to discover
Music still possesses all its charms
As I serenade my lover
Dancing by in someone else's arms
But I am not allowed to show the crowd
What happens when romance has gone
I must hid my fears singing through the tears
While the music plays on

All Alone (Marc Bolan & T. Rex)
All Alone
Performer(s): Marc Bolan & T. Rex
All alone I sit at home
with my chrome guitar
Even Michael Mouse
he had a house with someone there
You handsome bitch
you movie twitch and seranade
the dudes that move and
smile so vile and masquerade.
They masquerade, yeah.
An adjacent kid with a
Jamaican lid
and a switch-blade knife
steals the truth
from your golden tooth
then turns you in
So hold hands tight
on a marble night
you may be dismissed
but know that Zeus
is never loose with his Grecian kiss
his Grecian kiss
Fiery skies
in children's eyes
fade into youth
bleeding blood and tears
on all the ears that heard your gold.
so you walk the dog
and you stroll the frog
on a dome-sky earth
to lie to hard is an English bard.
You'd better hide your tracks
Better watch your mind
Ye-yeah, wo-wo-wo, do it to me baby now

While The Feeling's Good
While The Feeling's Good
Composer(s): Roger Bowling; Freddie Hart
Performer(s): Wayne Newton;
Kenny Rogers; B.J. Thomas
Take your gown out of the closet
Put it on that's why I bought it
Come stand in front of me and let me see
Take the warm smile that you're wearing
Place it on these lips that's burning
To share this fire you've built inside of me
Turn the light down in the bedroom
Pull the sheet down from the pillow
When we're like this
Love's easy understood
Let's walk through this house we live in
To the room we always love in
And let's love each other while the feeling's good
With all my will I promise
With all of me I'll love you
This feeling that I've got
Just grows and grows
I can't stop this wanting you
And I can't stop this needing you
No more than I can stop
The wind that blows
I'll hold to your sweet loving
Long as we both have this feeling
I'll love you everyway I know that's good
Let's walk through this house we live in
To the room we always love in
And let's love each other while the feeling's good
While the feelings good
Let's keep it going
While the loving's good
Let's keep it growing
Let's walk through this house we live in
To the room we always love in
And let's love each other while the feeling's good

All Alone (Frank Sinatra)
All Alone
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra
All alone, I'm so all alone
There is no one else but you
All alone by the telephone
Waiting for a ring, a ting-a-ling
I'm all alone every evening
All alone, feeling blue
Wond'ring where you are and how you are
And if you are all alone too
I wonder where you are (remember me) and how you are
(remember me)
And if you are (I love you) all alone (I love you) too

While The Angelus Was Ringing
While The Angelus Was Ringing
Composer(s): Dick Manning; Jean Villard
Performer(s): Dick Haymes;
Allan Jones; Josef Locke
While the angelus was ringing
calling for the evening prayer
I could hear the choir singing
and I saw you standing there
Silently I stood beside you
how my heart was beating then
all my dreams had all come true
I was safely back with you
never more to roam again
Then the great cathedral spire
seemed to come alive and say
through the voices of the choir
there will be a wedding day
Then a golden ray of sunlight
from a window in the sky
shone upon us from above
heaven's blessing on our love
now our love will never die
Then a golden ray of sunlight
from a window in the sky
shone upon us from above
heaven's blessing on our love
now our love will never die

All Across The Nation
All Across The Nation
Performer(s): Nick Gilder
All Across The Nation
(the wheels are rolling)
All across the nation
I've seen this generation
In a silver plane
A subway train
The man was standing there
and I've got my intuition
There's a game called `recognition`
All around the world
The boys and girls
Are looking for the same
The wheels are rolling
All around the world
The wheels of fortune
Let me see you turn
Ticket for a destination
Aboard the new sensation
A wondering son
The lucky one
A London boy in flight
Looking for the satisfaction
Of that rock `n` roll reaction
Heres an invitation
A reservation
For all to hear the band
New places, new faces
This ever-winding road
Long races at fast paces
Can be a heavy load

While Strolling Through The Park One Day
While Strolling Through The Park One Day
Composer(s): Ed Haley; Reinhard Keiser
Performer(s): Alvin & The Chipmunks
(Refrain)
While strolling through the park one day
In the merry merry month of May
I was taken by surprise
By a pair of roguish eyes
In a moment my poor heart was stole away
A smile was all she gave to me
Of course we were as happy as can be
Ah! I immediately raised my hat
And finally she remarked
I never shall forget
That lovely afternoon
I met her at the fountain in the park
While strolling through the park one day
In the merry merry month of May
I was taken by surprise
By a pair of roguish eyes
In a moment my poor heart was stole away
A smile was all she gave to me
Of course we are as happy as can be
Ah! I immediately raised my hat
And finally she remarked
I never shall forget
That lovely afternoon
I met her at the fountain in the park

All Across The Havens
All Across The Havens
Composer(s): Elton John - Bernie Taupin
Performer(s): Elton John
The sister of sunlight
Comes to my lonely life
Bearing the crosses I hung
I hung on my lonely wife
And the anchor told me
If I prayed by the river
That the sweet sound of water
Would always go with her
All across the havens to the waterfall
They told me I would meet her there
Inside those icy walls
But how on earth in this universe
Can they forgive me of my pains
For all across the havens
I must stumble locked in chains
Then the mother of mercy
Showed me her stable
And told me you would be safe
Safe in her cradle
And the waterfall opened
And the water withdrew
Leaving me standing
On a road leading through

While My Heart Is Still Beating
While My Heart Is Still Beating
Composer(s): Bryan Ferry; Andy Mackay
Performer(s): Roxy Music
All of those people
Everywhere
Ever so needing
Where's it all leading
Tell me where
Nothing insincere
I'd better have pity
I'd better go easy
I never will lay down
While my heart is still beating
Where it's all leading
Walk on air
Am I still dreaming
Words to spare
Lost in their meaning
I'd better be strong now
I'd better stop dreaming
My heart has flown away now
Will it never stop bleeding?

All About You
All About You
Composer(s): Mick Jagger - Keith Richards
Performer(s): The Rolling Stones
Well if you call this a life
Why must I spend it with you?
If the show must go on
Let it go on without you
So sick and tired hanging around with jerks like you
Who'll tell me those lies
And let me think they're true?
What am I to do
You want it, I got it too
Though the lies might be true
That's just cause the joke's about you
I'm so sick and tired hanging around with dogs like you
You're the first to get blamed, always the last bitch to get paid
Oh, tell me those lies
Let me think they're true
I heard one or two
They weren't about me, they weren't about her
They were all about you
I may miss you
But missing me just isn't you
I'm so sick and tired hanging around with dogs like you
Tell me those lies
Let me think they're true
I heard one or two, and they weren't about me, they weren't about her
They're all about you
I'm so sick and tired
What should I do
You want it, you get it...
So how come I'm still in love with you?

While My Guitar Gently Weeps
While My Guitar Gently Weeps
Composer(s): George Harrison
Performer(s): The Beatles
I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping
Still my guitar gently weeps
I don't know why nobody told you
How to untold your love
I don't know how someone controlled you
They bought and sold you
I look at the world and I notice it's turning
While my guitar gently weeps
I with every mistake we must surely be learning
Still my guitar gently weeps
I don't know how you were diverted you were perverted too
I don't know how you were inverted no one alerted you
I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at you all
Still my guitar gently weeps

All About Soul
All About Soul
Composer(s): Billy Joel
Performer(s): Billy Joel; Anders Holst
She waits for me at night, she waits for me in silence
She gives me all her tenderness and takes away my pain
And so far she hasn't run, though I swear she's had her moments
She still believes in miracles while others cry in vain
It's all about soul
It's all about faith and a deeper devotion
It's all about soul
'Cause under the love is a stronger emotion
She's got to be strong
'Cause so many things getting out of control
Should drive her away
So why does she stay?
It's all about soul
She turns to me sometimes and asks me what I'm dreaming
And I realize I must have gone a million miles away
And I ask her how she knew to reach out for me that moment
And she smiles because it's understood there are no words to say
It's all about soul
It's all about knowing what someone is feeling
The woman's got soul
The power of love and the power of healing
This life isn't fair
It's gonna get dark, it's gonna get cold
You've got to be tough, but that ain't enough
It's all about soul
There are people who have lost every trace of human kindness
There are many who have fallen, there are some who still survive
She comes to me at night and she tells me her desires
And she gives me all the love I need to keep my faith alive
It's all about soul
It's all about joy that comes out of sorrow
It's all about soul
Who's standing now and who's standing tomorrow
You've got to be hard
Hard as the rock in that old rock 'n' roll
But that's only part, you know in your heart
It's all about soul

While I'm Waiting
While I'm Waiting
Composer(s): Gary Mallaber; John Massaro
Performer(s): The Steve Miller Band
I left my message on your number
In hopes that you might call
Riding high on good intentions
Still hanging on the wall
Although my words were never all too
Clear it’s understood
It’s never too late to say in other ways
Something in our lives we’ll rearrange
More than just your call on holiday
Ring me up, don’t bring me down
Don’t let me hear you won’t
Come through tonight
Ring me up, don’t bring me down
You know this lonely heart stands by me
While I’m waiting
Remembering how it came together
The meaning in your eyes
Now words fall out like perfect strangers
We both apologize
In all this time I thought I knew you
And over looked somehow the reasons why
You kept inside
Ring me up, don’t bring me down
Don’t let me hear you won’t
Come through tonight
This lonely heart stands by me
While I’m waiting
Ring me up, don’t bring me down
Don’t let me hear you won’t
Come through tonight
Ring me up, don’t bring me down
Here’s hoping the days gone by we’ll see again
This lonely heart stands by and I’m still waiting
Ooh still waiting
Ooh still waiting

All About Love
All About Love
Composer(s): Maurice White - Larry Dunn
Performer(s): Earth, Wind & Fire
We know it’s been time talking to you
So we figure we lay it on you
Let you know how we feel about, love
Paint a pretty smile, each day
Lovin, is a blessing
Never let it fade away
It’s all about love
Build yourself a true romance
There’s beauty that surround you
You deserve, just one more chance
My dear, my dear
Let the light snine, all through
Your mind feel your little, heart a glow
Take the time, make up your mind
It’s all about love
Talking to yourself is fine makes
You feel, much better
Know just where to draw the line
My dear, my dear
Bound to fall in love one day
Surely and you need it
Pretty smile will always say
It’s all about love
We want to take this moment to run
Down a couple of things about things
We see everyday
Now, I want you to stop whatever you’re doing
You’re doing
Just stop
You know, they say there’ s beauty
In the eyes which I say is not the fact
’cause you are as beautiful as your
Thoughts, right on
You know, for instance, we study all kin
Kinds of sciences, astrogy, mysticism
Religion, so forth we did
And like coming from here place, all these things help
Because if you’re inside your inner self
Have mercy!
Now
There’s an outer self we got to deal with
The one that likes to go to parties
One that likes to dress up and be cool
And look pretty, all ego-trips avel all this
Hear you all, I’m trying to tell you
You gotta love you. and learn all the beautiful things around you
Trees and birds. and if there ain’t no beauty
You got to make some beauty
Have mercy!
Listen to me, yeah!

While I'm Still Alive
While I'm Still Alive
Composer(s): Ultravox
Performer(s): Ultravox
Playing the game
With the chips on my shoulder
Checking in the mirror
As my coffee cup gets colder
Stagger and swagger
Combing my hair
If tomorrow's not there
Then at least today's all mine
Chorus:
While I'm still alive
While I'm still alive
While I'm still alive
Strutting my stuff
I'm blagging the damage
From coupling with headlines
I was suckled on salvage
The fighting's exciting
The age is dramatic
I'm crackling with static
Just jiving to survive
(Chorus)
Take a stroll down the side roads, I know you want to
A shock in the dark can be good for your heart, oh yeah
(Chorus)
Scuffling along
On the crest of a wave
Laughing and grafting
Or jerking and working
Striking a match
Where life is a gas
I need the flash
To make it all worthwhile
(Chorus)
