Ever Since The World Began (Survivor)
Ever Since The World Began
Composer(s): Jim Peterik; Frankie Sullivan
Performer(s): Survivor
I never knew what brought me here
As if somebody led my hand
It seems I hardly had to steer
My course was planned
A destiny that guides us all
And by its hand we rise and fall
But only for a moment time
Enough to catch our breath again
And we're just another piece of the puzzle
Just another part of the plan
Oh, when life touches the other
It's so hard to understand
Still we walk this road together
We travel through as far as we can
And we have waited for this moment in time
Ever since the world began
Takin' in the times gone by
We wonder how it all began
We never know and still we try to understand
And even though the seasons change
The reasons still remain the same
It's love that keeps us holdin' on
Till we can see the sun again
And we're just another piece of the puzzle
Just another part of the plan
And we have waited for this moment in time
Ever since the worl began
And I stand alone, a man of stone, against the drivin' rain
And the night it's got your number and the wind it passes your name
And we search for truth, win or lose to whisper on again
Where hopes still burn eternal
We're the people of the plain

I'm Goin' To Settle Down Outside Of London Town (When I'm Dry, Dry Dry)
I'm Goin' To Settle Down Outside Of London Town (When I'm Dry, Dry Dry)
Composer(s): James V. Monaco; Joe McCarthy
Performer(s): Irving Kaufman
America, I must say I love you
You're more than a mother to me
And although I must stray, I must go away
Still my home you will always be
So goodbye, I am leaving you soon
I must sail with the last day of June
I'm goin' to settle down, outside of London Town
Down in a village by the sea
And you will find me there with the country air
Where everything is free
And when I'm over there
My heart will still be here
And I hate to say "Goodbye"
But I'm a man who must have a little liquor when I'm dry, dry dry
America, you're such a young nation
You are just like a big bouncing boy
You've been happy and gay, I loved you that way
Your freedom the world could enjoy
I am sorry to leave you behind
I'll come back here when you've changed your mind
I'm goin' to settle down, outside of London Town
Down in a village by the sea
And you will find me there with the country air
Where everything is free
And when I'm over there
My heart will still be here
And I hate to say "Goodbye"
But I'm a man who must have a little liquor when I'm dry, dry dry

Ever Fallen In Love (With Someone You Shouldn't've)?
Ever Fallen In Love (With Someone You Shouldn't've)?
Composer(s): Pete Shelley
Performer(s): Buzzcocks; Nouvelle Vague
You spurn my natural emotions
You make me feel like dirt
And I’m hurt
And if I start a commotion
I run the risk of losing you
And that’s worse
Ever fallen in love with someone
Ever fallen in love
In love with someone
Ever fallen in love
In love with someone
You shouldn’t’ve fallen in love with
I can’t see much of a future
Unless we find out what’s to blame
What a shame
And we won’t be together much longer
Unless we realize that we are the same
Ever fallen in love with someone
Ever fallen in love
In love with someone
Ever fallen in love
In love with someone
You shouldn’t’ve fallen in love with
You disturb my natural emotions
You make me feel like dirt
And I’m hurt
And if I start a commotion
I’ll only end up losing you
And that’s worse
Ever fallen in love with someone
Ever fallen in love
In love with someone
Ever fallen in love
In love with someone
You shouldn’t’ve fallen in love with
Ever fallen in love with someone
Ever fallen in love
In love with someone
Ever fallen in love
In love with someone
You shouldn’t’ve fallen in love with
Fallen in love with
Ever fallen in love with someone
You shouldn’t’ve fallen in love with

I'm Going To Climb The Blue Ridge Mountains Back To You
I'm Going To Climb The Blue Ridge Mountains Back To You
Composer(s): Robert Levenson; George B. McConnell
Somewhere in the Blue Ridge Mountains
far above the sad blue sea
somewhere there's a heart that's yearning
that is where I long to be
In my dreams you're near and yet so far
I'll come back to where you are
I can see the love light gleaming, guiding me along the way
to a little lonely cabin where I'll be with you for aye
As we sit beside the cabin door, I'll sing this refrain once more
I'm on my way back to you
like the mountains, dear, I know you're blue
Tho' the road is hard and long
still my love has grown so strong
that I'd follow you the whole world through
Where the mountains and the skies above are bluer
I will find someone I know is truer than skies above
pretty mountains rose, doll up in your gingham clothes
I'm goin' to climb the Blue Ridge Mountains back to you

Evening: Time To Get Away
Evening: Time To Get Away
Composer(s): John Lodge
Performer(s): The Moody Blues
Evening has come to pass
The time of day doesn't last
Evening has earned its place today
I'm tired of working away
Working, living it brings
Only way to have those things
Toiling has bought too many tears
Turn round all those past years
Evening time to get away
Evening time to get away
Evening time to get away
Till next day
Live all you people
You can see where you're at
It doesn't really hurt you
So that can depend
Evening time to get away
Live all you people
You can see where you're at
It doesn't really hurt you
So that can depend
Evening time to get away
Evening time to get away

Performer(s): Tim Curry & Chorus
and multiple other artists
Dr. Frank-N-Furter:
On the day I went away (Goodbye)
Was all I had to say (Now)
I want to come again and stay (Oh my)
Smile, and that will mean I may
'Cause I've seen blue skies
Through the tears in my eyes
And I realise I'm going home (I'm going home)
Everywhere, it's been the same (Feeling)
Like I'm outside in the rain (Wheeling)
Free to try and find a game (Dealing)
Cards for sorrow
Cards for pain
'Cause I've seen blue skies
Through the tears in my eyes
And I realsze I'm going home
(I'm going home)
(I'm going home)
(I'm going home)

Evening Of Light

Performer(s): Nico
Midnight winds are landing at the end of time
Midnight winds are landing at the end of time
A true story wants to be mine
A true story wants to be mine
The story is telling a true lie
The story is telling a true lie
Mandolins are ringing to his viol singing
Mandolins are ringing to his viol singing
Midnight winds are landing at the end of time
Midnight winds are landing at the end of time
Dungeon's sinking to a slumber to the end of time
Dungeon's sinking to a slumber to the end of time
Petrel sings the domebells pound into the unended end of time
Petrel sings the domebells pound into the unended end of time
Midnight winds are landing at the end of time
Midnight winds are landing at the end of time
In the morning of my winter
When my eyes are still asleep
In the morning of my winter
When my eyes are still asleep
A dragonfly laying in a coat of snow
I'll send to kiss your heart for me
A dragonfly laying in a coat of snow
I'll send to kiss your heart for me
Midnight winds are landing at the end of time
Midnight winds are landing at the end of time
The children are jumping in the evening of light
The children are jumping in the evening of light
A thousand sins are heavy in the evening of light
A thousand sins are heavy in the evening of light
Midnight winds are landing at the end of time
Midnight winds are landing at the end of time

I'm Going Higher Someday
I'm Going Higher Someday
Performer(s): Bill Gaither, Gloria Gaither, & Homecoming Friends
I'm going higher, yes higher someday
I'm going higher, yes higher to stay
Over the mountain, beyond the blue sky
Going where none ever sicken or die
Loved ones will meet in that sweet by and by
I'm going higher someday
Often my soul has been lifted above
Lost in the ocean of God's mighty love
Higher and higher, but once still I say
I'm going higher someday
I'm going higher, yes higher someday
I'm going higher, yes higher to stay
Over the mountain, beyond the blue sky
Going where none ever sicken or die
Loved ones will meet in that sweet by and by
I'm going higher someday
Soon will the Saviour appear, bless His name
And in a moment, we all will be changed
Then when he calls for his bright come away
We're going higher someday
I'm going higher, yes higher someday
I'm going higher, yes higher to stay
Over the mountain, beyond the blue sky
Going where none ever sicken or die
Loved ones will meet in that sweet by and by
I'm going higher and higher and higher
I'm going higher, yes higher someday
I'm going higher, yes higher to stay
Over the mountain, beyond the blue sky
Going were none ever sicken or die
Loved ones will meet in that sweet by and by
I'm going higher someday
I'm going higher someday
I'm going higher and higher and higher and higher someday
Someday

Evening In June
Evening In June
Composer(s): Van Morrison
Performer(s): Van Morrison
By the light of the moon
When the night holds the secrets
Of the sleepy lagoon
I´m contemplating moonlight
On the water
When I´m walking with you
On an evening in June
On an evening in June
It can get so sentimental
When I´m thinking of you
And I can´t think of anything
Except being with you
When the summer is through
On an evening in June
On an evening in June
Well it lifts me up
When I´m talking to you
On an evening in June
When the flowers are in bloom
And the sky is so blue
Well there´s so many things
Taking place
That it´s hard to keep up with it all
Keep your eye on the ball
And to make the right call
When we´re longing for fall
On this evening in June
On an evening in June
Well it lifts me up
When I´m talking to you
On an evening in June
When the flowers are in bloom
And the sky is so blue
Well there´s so many things taking place
That it´s hard to keep up with it all
Keep your eye on the ball
And to make the right call
When we´re longing for fall
On this evening in June
By the sleepy lagoon
On an evening in June
By the light of the moon
By the sleepy lagoon
On an evening in June
On an evening in June
By the sleepy lagoon
By the light of the moon
By the sleepy lagoon
On an evening in June

I'm Going Back To Where I Came From
I'm Going Back To Where I Came From
Composer(s): Jessie Mae Robinson
Performer(s): Spike Jones
I'm goin' back to where I come from
Where the honeysuckle smells so sweet it durn near makes you sick
I used to think my life was hum-drum
But I sure have leared a lesson that is bound to stick
There ain't no use of me pretendin'
The city just ain't no place for a guy like me to end in
Goin' back to where I come from
Where the mockin' bird is singin' in the lilac bush
I used to go down to the station
Every evenin' just to watch the Pullman train come rollin' in
And then one night, that great temptation
Got too great, so I just up and left my kith and kin
I took my hat and fourteen dollars
And I went through all the troubles of the plight that always follows
When you're rich and huntin' romance
But my huntin' days are over, I can tell you that
I met a man in Kansas City
An' he winked and asked me if I'd like to step around
I said "Why, yes, why sure, that's what I'm here for, betcha life"
So he said he'd take me to the hottest spots in town
He mentioned things he'd have to fix up
So he took my fourteen dollars but there must have been a mix up
He's been gone since Monday evenin'
And I've gotta hunch I'll never see that guy no more
I'm goin' back to where I come from
Where the mockin' bird is singin' in the lilac bush

Evenin'
Ev'ry night you come and you find me, oh Lord
And you always come and remind me, oh yes

Evenin'
Can't you see I'm deeply in your power, oh Lord?
Every minute seems like an hour, oh Lord
Since my gal, she's gone, my baby's gone, my baby's gone
Now shadow's fallin', well,
Are on the wall
That's the time I miss your kiss, most of all
Even though I try, how can I go on, oh yes, go on
Pretty baby
Evenin'
Let me sleep 'til the gray dawn is breakin', oh yes
I don't care if I don't awaken, oh Lord
Since my gal she's gone, my baby's gone, oh yes she's gone
Evenin'
Let me sleep 'til gray dawn is breakin', oh Lord
I don't care if I don't awaken, oh yes, since my gal she's gone
My baby's gone, my baby's gone
My baby's gone

I'm Going Back To Carolina
I'm Going Back To Carolina
Composer(s): Billy Downs; Ernie Erdman
Don't ask me why I'm leaving
You see I'm not grieving
I'm really feeling grand
I'm waiting for the train dear
that takes me back again dear
To sweet old Dixieland
I'm thru with all the bright lights
The Cafes and the white lights
The hurly burly noise of old Broadway
I hear that engine puffing
Believe me I'm not bluffing
good bye, I'm on my way
I'm glad that I'm returning
For years I have been yearning
To see my home again
I seem to hear the crickets a chirping in the thickets
Way down in lover's lane
It makes me feel like yelling
Ma's homemade pies I'm smelling
Oh gee, I'm just as happy as can be
I'll feel a grand sensation
When I see my home station
I'm on my way, fare thee
I'm going back, back, back to Carolina
That's where I belong
I'm going back, to Carolina
And join the Dixie throng
come along come along
I know the folks will all be glad to see me
Just for Auld Lang Syne
Here comes my train, ding, dong
Toot - toot
Farewell, so long
I'm going back to Carolin'

Even Though You're Gone
Even Though You're Gone
Composer(s): Kenny Gamble; Leon Huff
Performer(s): The Jacksons
[Chorus:]
Gotta find a way somehow
Nothing's gonna stop me now
Gotta find a way somehow
Even though you're gone
Things don't look as bad
As they did yesterday
Every minute I get
Stronger somehow ... some way
'Cause I gotta keep on living
I got the will to survive
Even though I feel so bad
So bad inside
[Chorus]
All the plans I had
I've got to give them up
And start anew
Making plans for one
Instead of making plans for two
From now on I'll be thinking
Thinking 'bout myself
It'll be a long time
Before I love somebody else
[Chorus]
I depended on you
For everything
Oh, I really trusted you
How could you do me the
Way you did
You really let me down
[Chorus]

I'm Goin' Back To Louisiana (Where The Bright Moon Shines)
Composer(s): Floyd Thompson; E. Clinton Keithley
I long to be roamin' down in Louisiana
with my lover's gal, only pal
Floatin' on the river while the moon is shinin'
With my lovin' gal, only pal
The whippoor will is callin' from the distant shore
I hear the banjos ring
Darkies sing
In Louisiana
Dear Louisiana
There is where my heart will ever cling
I don't know why I ever roamed from Louisiana and my Dixie home
Dixie home
There among the cotton fields I lived the sweetest days I ever known
Ever known
Tonight I'm goin' to sail along the Mississippi river on my way
On my way
And I know tomorrow I'll be free from sorrow
See my lovin' gal at break of day
I'm goin' back to Louisiana where the bright moon shines
I'm goin' back to Louisiana and to that old gal of mine
When I get back we ain't a goin' to tarry
We're a goin' to find a Preacher man and marry
In the beautiful garden of Louisiana
Where the bright moon shines

Even The Nights Are Better
Even The Nights Are Better
Composer(s): Ken Bell; Terry Skinner; J.L. Wallace
Performer(s): Air Supply;
and various other artists
I, I was the lonely one
Wondering what went wrong
Why love had gone
And left me lonely
I, I was so confused
Feeling like I'd just been used
Then you came to me
And my loneliness left me
I used to think I was tied to a heartache
That was the heartbreak
But now that I've found you
Chorus
Even the nights are better
Now that we're here together
Even the nights are better
Since I found you
You, you knew just what to do
Cause you had been lonely too
And you showed me how
To ease the pain
And you did more
Than mend a broken heart
Cause now you've made a fire start
And I, I can see that you feel
The same way
I never thought there'd be someone to hold me
But then you told me
And now that I've found you
Chorus
Even the days are brighter
When someone you love's beside ya
Even the nights are better
Since I found you
Even the losers get lucky sometimes

Even The Losers
Composer(s): Tom Petty
Performer(s): Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers;
Nectarine; Los Secretos
Well, it was nearly all summer we sat on your roof
Yeah, we smoked cigarettes and we stared at the moon
And I'd show you stars you never could see
Baby, it couldn't have been that easy to forget about me
Baby, time meant n othing, anything seemed real
Yeah, you could kiss like fire and you made me feel
Like every word you said was meant to be
No, it couldn't have been that easy to forget about me
Baby, even the losers get lucky sometimes
Even the lo sers keep a little bit of pride
They get lucky sometimes
Two cars parked on the overpass,
Rocks hit the water like broken glass
I should have known right then it was too good to last
God, it's such a drag when you're livin' in the past
Baby, even the losers get lucky sometimes
Even the losers keep a little bit of pride
They get lucky sometimes
Baby, even the losers get lucky sometimes
Even the losers keep a little bit of pride
Yeah, they get lucky sometimes
Baby, even the losers get lucky sometimes
Even the losers get lucky sometimes
Even the losers get lucky sometimes
Even the losers get lucky sometimes
Even the losers get lucky sometimes

And you please to never leave me again
Wanna Hear It?
