Let Me (Elvis Presley)
Let Me
Composer(s): Elvis Presley - Ken Darby
Performer(s): Elvis Presley
Whenever I dance with the girl I love
My head goes round and round
When she's close to me
I can't stay on the ground
Whenever I dance with the girl I love
I never have a care
All night I'm so light
I walk right on the air
Oh let me, oh honey let me
Let me do what you know I love to do
Please take another chance and let me
Let me have another dance with you
Whenever I feel those pretty arms
Reaching round about
That feeling goes to my toes
And all the lights go out, go out, go out
Whenever I see those eyes of blue
Smiling up so shy
I'm in such a spin I take right off and fly
So let me, oh honey let me
Let me do what you know I love to do
Please take another chance and let me
Let me have another dance with you
So let me dance in the arms I love
Thrill me through and through
I'm so drunk with love
That all I see is you
I never hear the music play
I never see the crowd
Only you and me
Dancing on a cloud
Oh let me, oh honey let me
Let me do what you know I love to do
Please take another chance and let me
Let me have, another dance, with you

Breakin' Down The Walls
Breakin' Down The Walls
Composer(s): Phil Bates
Performer(s): Electric Light Orchestra
Talk is cheap, but it can't pay
For all the hurt you threw my way
Oh, no - oh, no
Love is blind but I can see
You're trying to make a fool of me
I know - i know
Sometimes i feel just like I'm running on ice
I might slip and slide girl
But you won't hurt me twice, oh no
Chorus
No matter what you say
You'll never stop me
Breaking down the walls around your heart
No matter what you do
You just can't stop me
Breaking down the walls around your heart
Love is passion, love is pain
The heat is on, we're all insane
I know, I know
Life is bitter, life is sweet
You just can't ever admit defeat
Oh, no - oh, no
Sometimes it feels like we've been fighting too long
It can't be right to make me feel so wrong - oh, no
Chorus
Did you ever feel like superman
Got the world in your hands
But you never can
Seem to break down the walls
Did you ever feel like a drowning man
Got your life in your hands
But you never can
Seem to break down the walls
Sometimes it feels just like I'm running on ice
I might slip and slide girl
But you won't hurt me twice - oh, no
Chorus

Let Love Speak For Itself
Let Love Speak For Itself
Composer(s): John Stimpson - Ian Wilson - Paul Young
Performer(s): Sad Café
In my life there are so many things I wanna do
But the main thing in my life, baby, is loving you
You know the hard times I had when I was feeling so down
When things didn’t work out right
You came along with your magic touch
Helped me all through the lonely nights
Keep your true love all to yourself
Don’t give your love to anyone else
Let love speak for itself
Never had anyone in my life as sweet as you
And the thought of us being apart like this
Just can't be true
You know the vision of love I had was never quite right
Cos I didn’t understand
You took the love that was in my heart
You're a rose in a barren land
Keep your true love all to yourself
Don’t give your love to anyone else
Let love speak for itself
Never had anyone in my life as sweet as you
And the thought of us being apart like this
Just can't be true
You know the vision of love I had was never quite right
Cos I didn’t understand
You took the love that was in my heart
You're a rose in a barren land
Keep your true love all to yourself
Don’t give your love to anyone else
Let love speak for itself
Let love speak for itself
Let love speak for itself

Let Joy And Innocence Prevail
Let Joy And Innocence Prevail
Composer(s): Hans Zimmer - Trevor Horn
Performer(s): Grace Jones
I tell you of a girl, her husband was a soldier
Gone to war in some strange country far away
No word had come to her
But the rumors of great battles fought
Men dying in their thousands and a world full of fear
As the day would turn to evening she would light a pure white candle
And place it in a window bright from where it could be seen
As she placed it in the window softly without thinking
She said let this burning candle be a beacon
Let joy and innocence prevail
Let joy and innocence prevail
Believe that love will never fail
Let joy and innocence prevail
And one night, asleep, she dreamed she saw her husband fall
In a great white cavalry charge
And waking in tears, she saw the candle burning in the window
She still had hope
And through the window, a man in the distance
But has he came closer, she saw he was a stranger
The stranger said I bring a message from a general
A captain has been wounded, his life hangs by a thread
He calls out your name and he wishes you to come to him
But the journey is a hard road and you may be afraid
And she laughed and said no road could be too hard for I am fearless
A captain and a husband I have gained this bright new day
And she said with all her heart she would fly to be beside him
And her love would heal his wounds, restore him to her
Let joy and innocence prevail
Let joy and innocence prevail
Believe that love will never fail
Let joy and innocence prevail
Let joy and innocence prevail
Let joy and innocence prevail
Believe that love will never fail
Let joy and innocence prevail
Let joy and innocence prevail

Let It Shine
Let It Shine
Composer(s): Austin Roberts - Bill LaBounty - Beckie Foster
Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog
There's a star up above the horizon
And it's shining for you and me
Something tells me this was meant to be
Do you feel like a dance in the moonlight
Is your heart beating crazy like mine?
You've got something burning bright
Don't keep it locked inside
Let it shine, show me your light
Let it shine, keep it shining into the night
Let it shine, don't hide it, it's something to see
Let it shine, let your love, let it shine on me
Don't you wish you could live every moment
Like that moment's the best one you'll see?
That's the way the world is supposed to be
When you find someone you can believe in
Letting go is the easy part
Just close your eyes and take a breath
And open up your heart
Let it shine, show me your light
Let it shine, keep it shining into the night
Let it shine, don't hide it, it's something to see
Let it shine, let your love, let it shine on me
Everyone puts in their time alone in the dark
Reach out and you're gonna find
The very best part of who you are
Let it shine, show me your light
Let it shine, keep it shining into the night
Let it shine, don't hide it, it's something to see
Let it shine, let your love, let it shine on me
Let it shine, ohh...show me your light
Let it shine, keep it shining into the night
Let it shine, don't hide it, it's something to see
Let it shine, let your love, let it shine on me
Let it shine, ohh...won't you let it shine?
Let it shine, keep it shining into the night
Let it shine, don't hide it, it's something to see
Let it shine, let your love, let it shine on me ...

Breakfast In America
Breakfast In America
Composer(s): Rick Davies; Roger Hodgson
Performer(s): Supertramp
and various other artists
Take a look at my girlfriend
She's the only one I got
Not much of a girlfriend
Never seem to get a lot
Take a jumbo across the water
Like to see America
See the girls in California
I'm hoping it's going to come true
But there's not a lot I can do
Could we have kippers for breakfast
Mummy dear, Mummy dear
They got to have 'em in Texas
Cos everyone's a millionaire
I'm a winner, I'm a sinner
Do you want my autograph
I'm a loser, what a joker
I'm playing my jokes upon you
While there's nothing better to do
Don't you look at my girlfriend
She's the only one I got
Not much of a girlfriend
Never seem to get a lot
Take a jumbo cross the water
Like to see America
See the girls in California
I'm hoping it's going to come true
But there's not a lot I can do

Let It Ring
Let It Ring
Composer(s): Lyn Duddy - Joan Edwards
Performer(s): Doris Day; Steve Beresford & His Piano And Orch.
Baby, your eyes have that look
And, baby, I put down my book
And maybe, we won't be disturbed
By a thing
Let it ring, let it ring, let it ring
Oh, baby, I've got you alone
And, baby, I'm not made of stone
And maybe, we won't be disturned
By a thing, this is too much
Let it ring, let it ring, let it ring
Doesn't matter who's on the line
When your lips are so close to mine
Don't let anybody intrude on this mood
We're incommunicado
Baby, if someone should call
Ignore it, do nothing at all
Just kiss me, who knows what
This moment may bring
Just let it ring, let it ring
Oh, let it ring

Performer(s): Boz Scaggs; Joe Bataan
I call ya...
You ain't in
What's this cold reaction
Where've you been
Ooh, baby, let it on the line
This is last call, you say that's all
You can take it fine
I'm sorry but...

You're pullin' just right out on first offense
Ooh, baby, play it smart
For you go south with your big mouth
Let it take your heart......

Maybe you're in way above your head
I may burn, might upset you
But you know I'd never let you down.....
I told ya
No more lyin'
No more tears fallin'
Stop your cryin'
Ooh, baby, I'm your fan
Before you go back to your side track
Baby understand.....
Danger there's a breakdown dead ahead
Just maybe you're in way above your head
I may burn, might upset you
But you know I'd never let you down
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no, no, no, no.....
Danger, there's a breakdown dead ahead
Then just maybe you're in way above your head
I may burn, might upset you
But you know I'd never let you down, down, down, down.....
No, no, no......

Good Bye, Hard Life

Let It Rain
Let It Rain
Composer(s): Bonnie Bramlett - Eric Clapton
Performer(s): Eric Clapton
The rain is falling through the mist of sorrow that surrounded me
The sun could never thaw away the the bliss that lays around me
Let it rain, let it rain
Let your love rain down on me
Let it rain, let it rain
Let it rain, rain, rain
Her life was like a desert flower burning in the sun
Until I found the way to love, it's harder said than done
Let it rain, let it rain
Let your love rain down on me
Let it rain, let it rain
Let it rain, rain, rain
Now I know the secret; there is nothing that I lack
If I give my love to you, you'll surely give it back
Let it rain, let it rain
Let your love rain down on me
Let it rain, let it rain
Let it rain, rain, rain

Breakdance
Breakdance
Composer(s): Irene Cara; Bunny Hull; Giorgio Moroder
Performer(s): Irene Cara
Well, what's this new feeling
Coming out of the streets
Everybody's talking 'bout it
Wherever they meet
Down by the corner
I keep getting the heat
Then my feet start moving
To the rhythmic beat
Breakdancing, break out
Breakdancing, break out
They used to do the locomotion
Do the jerk and the twist
But there just ain't never been
Nothing like this
Now popping and locking
Is a new way of talking
Things will work out for sure
Spinning 'out on the floor
Breakdancing, break out
Breakdancing, break out
Hearts are pumping
Beat is thumping
Love the way you're looking tonight
Fever's rising, no surprises
We won't have the chance to fight
Breakdancing, break out
Breakdancing, break out

Let It Out (Let It All Hang Out)
Let It Out (Let It All Hang Out)
Composer(s): B.B. Cunningham Jr. - Gary McEwen - Jerry Masters - John Hunter
Performer(s): Hombres; John Mellencamp
"A preachment, dear friends, you are about to receive
on John Barleycorn, nicotine, and the temptations of Eve"
No parkin' by the sewer sign
Hot dog, my razor's broke
Water drippin' up the spout
But I don't care, let it all hang out
Hangin' from a pine tree by my knees
Sun is shinin' through the shade
Nobody knows what it's all about
It's too much, man, let it all hang out
Saw a man walkin' upside down
My T.V.'s on the blink
Made Galileo look like a Boy Scout
Sorry 'bout that, let it all hang out
Sleep all day, drive all night
Brain my numb, can't stop now
For sure ain't no doubt
Keep an open mind, let it all hang out
It's rainin' inside a big brown moon
How does that mess you baby up, leg
Eatin' a Reuben sandwich with sauerkraut
Don't stop now, baby, let it all hang out
Let it all hang out
Let it all hang out ...
