If I Knew Then (What I Know Now)


If I Knew Then (What I Know Now)
Composer(s): Dick Jurgens; Eddy Howard
Performer(s): Dean Martin
and multiple other artists



If I knew then what I know now
If I knew then, you'd be here right now
I'd trade the world and its gold, to have and to hold
The one thing in life I love

If I knew then, oh, what I know now
We would never have drifted apart
If I had only taken your dream and made it part of mine
If I knew then, oh, what I know now

If I knew then, oh, what I know now
We would never have drifted apart
If I had only taken your dream made it part of mine
If I knew then what I know now

You, You Darlin'


You, You Darlin'
Composer(s): M.K. Jerome; Jack Scholl
Performer(s): Ginny Simms
and multiple other artists



I've had my chances, had my romances too
Somehow it seemed they wouldn't do
Then while I waited, Heaven created you
And ev'ry dream I dreamed came true

You, you darlin'
You're what I've always hoped and prayed for
You, darlin', it's true

You, you darlin'
This heart of mine was only made for
You, darlin', just you

When I see the sweetness of you
I'm lost in the thrill
Because I can say I love you
And I always will

Oh you, you darlin'
I don't know what I'd do without you
You, darlin' you
I love you and always will, my darlin' you!

If I had my way
Fly into the air
You know I would
And if I had my way
Fly without a care
You know I would
And if I had your love
If I only had your love
There'd be no if I had's at all

If there was a road
Travel down that road
To get to you
If there was a mountain
You know I'd climb that mountain, too
'Cause if I had your love
If I only had your love
There's be no if I had's at all

There'd be no if I had's at all
There'd be no if I had's at all
If I had your love

Kaliforniens Guld


Kaliforniens Guld
Composer(s): Kenneth Gärdestad; Ted Gärdestad
Performer(s): Ted Gärdestad



Jag satt ensam kvar på stranden
av ett gungande hav
med mitt huvud tungt i handen
när en båt gav sig av

den seglar efter guld
Kaliforniens guld
och drömmen jag lever av
är långt bortom blåa hav

Jag gick sakta ner till hamnen
för att smyga mig ombord
med min sovsäck hårt i famnen
och en fot på vår jord

Solen blänker från min spegel
morgondaggen ligger våt
när jag skakar mina segel
och skall vända min båt

Den seglar efter guld
Kaliforniens guld
och drömmen jag lever av
är långt bortom vida hav...

När det blivit dags att sova
och att drömma sig full
då kan alla stjärnor lova
Kaliforniens guld
då kan alla stjärnor lova
Kaliforniens guld

mm mm mm mmmmm

If I Had You


If I Had You
Composer(s): Ted Shapiro; James Campbell; Reginald Connelly
First recording by: Al Starita & the Piccadilly Players - 1928
Covered by multiple other artists



I could show the world how to smile
I could be glad - all of the while
I could change the gray skies to blue
If I had you

I could leave the old days behind
Leave all my pals - I'd never mind
I could start my life anew
If I had you

I could climb a snow-capped mountain
Sail the mighty ocean wide
I could cross the burning desert
If I had you by my side

I could be a king, dear - uncrowned
Humble or poor - rich or renowned
There is nothing I couldn't do
If I had you

If I Had Wings (Simple Minds)


If I Had Wings
Composer(s): Charlie Burchill; Jim Kerr
Performer(s): Simple Minds



Open inside something about this pain
There's something about this sweet refrain
Reminds me that you're not there
And if I could care there's something about this curse
Like a needle inside a silken purse
Reminds me of all that you'd bring
If I had wings
I'm still standing

Blue mountain high
Only the fables get to fly
Without these words there's no reason why
It reminds me of all that you bring

If I had wings
Would like to teach myself
If I had wings
Would learn to stir myself
If I had wings
Strapped inside won't be denied

Nightmare brings
All that you said
And if I could fly
Long time saviour
That's the sinner's crime
Well without such trust
I know that I can never find
Never find - Never find - Never find

If I had wings
If I had wings

I'm still standing

Never find - Never find - Never find

Open inside something about this pain
There's something about this sweet refrain
Reminds me that you're not there
And if I could care there's something about this curse
Like a needle inside a silken purse
Reminds me of all that you'd bring
If I had wings
If I had wings
If I had wings
If I had wings

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

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

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

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

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

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
