Lonesome And A Long Way From Home
Lonesome And A Long Way From Home
Composer(s): Bonnie Bramlett - Delaney Bramlett - Leon Russell
Performer(s): Eric Clapton
and multiple other artists
Out on an open highway
Such a lovely day but something's wrong
Something, something's gotta be wrong
I just left home this morning
This old road keeps rolling on and on
Rolling, rolling on and on
Won't somebody help me?
Won't somebody help me?
Won't somebody help me?
I've never been so lonesome and long way from home
Never been lonesome and long way
Never been lonesome and long way from home
Chorus

My Little Corner Of The World
My Little Corner Of The World
Composer(s): Bob Hilliard; Lee Pockriss
Performer(s): Anita Bryant
and multiple other artists
Come along with me
To my little corner of the world
And dream a little dream
In my little corner of the world
Tonight my love
We'll share a sweet embrace
We'll soon forget
There's any other place
And if you care to stay
In my little corner of the world
Then we can hide away
In my little corner of the world
I always knew
I'd find someone like you
So welcome to
My little corner of the world
And if you care to stay
In my little corner of the world
Then we can hide away
In my little corner of the world
I always knew
I'd find someone like you
So welcome to
My little corner of the world

Lonesome 7-7203
Lonesome 7-7203
((Dutch Version: Draai 797204 (by Will Tura) - 1964))
Composer(s): Justin Tubb
First release by: Hawkshaw Hawkins - 1962
Covered by multiple other artists
Had our number changed today, although I hated to
But each time the phone would ring
They'd want to speak to you
And it hurts to tell them, you're not here with me
Maybe now, ole telephone will let me be
It's not in the book now, so you'd better write it down
Just in case your love for me should ever come around
You might want to call and break the news to me
Just call Lonesome 7-7203
I keep the telephone beside me all the time
Hoping you might want to call and say you've changed your mind
If you do, then darling you know where I'll be
I'm at Lonesome 7-7203
You're the only one I've given our new number to
So now if the telephone should ring I'll know it's you
If you ever long for love that used to be
Just call Lonesome 7-7203
Just call Lonesome 7-7203

In My Little Corner
In My Little Corner
Composer(s): Richard Rodgers; Oscar Hammerstein II
I'm as mild and as meek as a mouse
When I hear a command I obey
But I know of a spot in my house
Where no one can stand in my way
In my own little corner
In my own little chair
I can be whatever I want to be
On the wing of my fancy
I can fly anywhere
And the world will open it's arms to me
I'm a young Egyptian princess
Or a milkmaid
I'm the greatest prima donna in the land
I'm an heiress who has always had her silk made
By her own flock of silkworms in Japan
I'm a girl men go mad for
Love's a game I can play
With a cool and confidant kind of aire
Just as long as I stay in my own little corner
All alone in my own little chair
...I can be whatever I want to be
I'm a thief from Calcutta
I'm a queen in Peru
I'm a mermaid dancing upon the sea
I'm a huntress on an African safari!
It's a dang'rous type of sport
And yet it's fun
In the night I sally forth to seek my quarry
And I find I forgot to bring my gun
I am lost in the jungle
All alone and unarmed
When I meet a lioness in her lair
Then I'm glad to be back in my own little corner
All alone in my own little chair
In my own little corner
In my own little chair
I can be whatever I want to be
On the wing of my fancy
I can fly anywhere
And the world will open it's arms to me
I am in the royal palace
Of all places!
I am chatting with the prince
And king, and queen
And the color of my two stepsisters' faces
Is a queer sort of sour apple green
I am coy and flirtatious when alone with the prince
A-hahahaha! Oh, my Your Highness, you shouldn't say such things!!
I'm the Belle of the Ball in my own little corner
All alone in my own little chair
Fol-de-rol and fiddle-dee-dee
Fiddle-dee-faddle-dee-fawdle
All the wishes in all the world
Are poppy cot and twaut
Fol-de-rol and fiddle-dee-dee
Fiddle-dee-faddle-dee-foodle
All the dreamers in all the world
Are dizzy in the noodle!

Lonesome (Blue)
Lonesome
Composer(s): Hugh Nicholson
Performer(s): Blue
I get lonely
When I'm only
Sitting here babe
On my own
If I want to
I could turn to
Picking numbers on the 'phone
But it's not the way it's got to be
When I need your loving close to me
I get happy
When you're near me
I get sad
When you're far away
Tell me, tell me
Should I leave
Or should I stay
But it's not the way it's got to be
When I need your loving close to me
And I won't sit back and let it happen
To me
This depression's surely messing
up my whole way of living
Need you near me
need to steer me
Away from all pain I'm given
But it's not the way it's got to be
When I need you really close to me
I won't sit back and let it happen
To me

In My Life
In My Life
Composer(s): Paul McCartney; John Lennon
First release by: The Beatles - 1965
Covered by multiple other artists
There are places I'll remember
all my life though some have changed
Some forever not for better
some have gone and some remain
All these places have their moments
with lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
in my life I've loved them all
But of all these friends and lovers
there is no one compares with you
and these memories lose their meaning
when I think of love as something new
Though I know I'll never lose affection
for people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
in my life I love you more
Though I know I'll never lose affection
for people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
in my life I love you more
In my life I love you more

Lonesome (Adam Faith)
Lonesome
Composer(s): Bert Pellish
Performer(s): Adam Faith
Do you know what it's like to be lonesome
Do you know how it feels to be blue
Do you still get a thrill
From the dreams we used to share
And the star that we wished upon
Have you noticed, it's still there
And if you only knew how much, how much I missed you
Missed your lips pressed to mine so tenderly
If you know what it's like to be lonesome
Then, darling, please hurry home to me
If you know what it's like to be lonesome
Then, darling, please hurry home to me

Lonely Wind
Lonely Wind
Composer(s): Steve Walsh
Performer(s): Kansas
When I'm needin' a friend I can talk to the wind
God I sure am glad that I found him
Sometimes he seems to be the only one beside me
Who can feel the Lord's breath all around him
Winter's cold frozen ice or a bright autumn day
On a warm summer night you can hear him say
Cry for me, sigh for me, sad breezes flow
Stay for me, play for me, the song my friends will know
My lonely wind must blow
Mighty friend that is mine, can you give me a sign?
He'll leave nothing but only to hear him
I've seen the tall trees bend low when his mighty winds blow
And that's all the more reason I fear him
Hear him call for the earth lonely I can feel his great pain
But on the eve of this day
I'll join in his refrain
Cry for me, sigh for me, sad breezes flow
Stay for me, play for me, the song my friends will know
My lonely wind must blow
When I'm needing a friend I'll remember the wind
And my life here with the breezes of sorrow
I'll be leaving himoon 'cause I've got to make room
For the lonely that will find him tomorrow
On a black stormy night in your bosom I'll cling
And I'll know I've found love and the last song we'll sing
Cry for me, sigh for me, sad breezes flow
Stay for me, play for me, the song my friends will know
My lonely wind must blow

In My Hour Of Darkness
In My Hour Of Darkness
Composer(s): Gram Parsons; Emmylou Harris
First release by: Gram Parsons & Emmylou Harris - 1974
Covered by multiple other artists
In my hour of darkness
In my time of need
Oh, Lord grant me vision
Oh, Lord grant me speed
Once I knew a young man
Went driving through the night
Miles and miles without a word
With just his high-beam lights
Who'd have ever though they'd build such
a deadly Denver bend
To be so strong, to take as long as
it would till the end
In my hour of darkness
In my time of need
Oh, Lord grant me vision
Oh, Lord grant me speed
Another young man safely strummed his
silver string guitar
And he played to people everywhere
Some say he was a star
But he was just a country boy
his simple songs confess
And the music he had in him
so very few possess
In my hour of darkness
In my time of need
Oh, Lord grant me vision
Oh, Lord grant me speed
Then there was an old man
Kind and wise with age
And he read me just like a book and he
never missed a page
And I loved him like my father
And I loved him like my friend
And I knew his time would shortly come
but I did not know just when
In my hour of darkness
In my time of need
Oh, Lord grant me vision
Oh, Lord grant me speed
Oh, Lord grant me vision
Oh, Lord grant me speed

In My Hole
In My Hole
Composer(s): Gilbert O'Sullivan
Performer(s): Gilbert O'Sullivan
Every time a bird sings
Every time a bell rings
I go berserk
I climb into my hole
And sit there like a mole
Playing with the dirt
Contradicting people who think of me as being
So soft and gentle
Very clean
I used to have a daisy
A purple one called Maisy
Stuck on my bed
It didn't bother me
Yet when the landlord, Freestone saw it he said
Take it out at once or evicted you must go
So here I am in my hole
Watching people pass me by
Each of them in their own world and me in mine
I've never bitten off any more than I can chew
Never wanted too-
Every time a bird sings
Every time a bell rings
I go berserk
And as I've said before
I sit there like a mole
Playing with the dirt
Call it what you like
And by all means tell a soul
I'm very happy in my hole
Running round from time to time
Stopping only to unwind
Everything I have is mine
In my hole
Length about the width of a pole
Width about the length of a bowl
Hollywood style!

Lonely Too Long
Lonely Too Long
Composer(s): Marty Robbins
Performer(s): Marty Robbins; Don Johnson
She's on the phone again
Wants to come home again
Wants to try one more time
To prove she's really mine
She wants to try again
I know she'll lie again
To take her back is wrong
But I've been lonely too long
The chance is very slim
That she's forgotten him
She may be tryin' to hide
The hurt, the wounded pride
There's just a chance that she
Might reconsider me
But chances are I'm wrong
But I've been lonely too long
Lonely too long, too long
Walked on like dirt
Lonely too long, too long
And oh, how it hurts
She knows that I'll give in
I'll take her back again
And once more I'll be wrong
But I've been lonely too long

In My Defence
In My Defence
Composer(s): Dave Clark; Jeff Daniels; David Soames
Performer(s): Freddie Mercury
In my defence what is there to say
All the mistakes we made must be faced today
It's not easy now knowing where to start
While the world we love tears itself apart
I'm just a singer with a song
How can I try to right the wrong
For just a singer with a melody
I'm caught in between
With a fading dream
In my defence what is there to say
We destroy the love - it's our way
We never listen enough never face the truth
Then like a passing song
Love is here and then it's gone
I'm just a singer with a song
How can I try to right the wrong
For just a singer with a melody
I'm caught in between
With a fading dream
I'm just a singer with a song
How can I try to right the wrong
I'm just a singer with a melody
I'm caught in between with a fading dream
Caught in between with a fading dream
Caught in between with a fading dream
Oh what on earth
Oh what on earth
How do I try
Do we live or die
Oh help me God
Please help me

Lonely Teenager
Lonely Teenager
Composer(s): Jim (H. M.) Faraci - Sal Rappa - Sandro Di Paolo
Performer(s): Dion
I wanna go home
Where I belong
'Cause now I'm just a lonely teenager
When I was 16 ran away
All alone on a stray
What can I do what can I say
I'm a lonely teenager
Now I'm 17 still alone
Wondering if I should go home
Or maybe stay out on my own
I'm a lonely teenager
I'd love to go back home (back home)
Where I belong (back home)
I know I'd be alright
If I just stay out of sight
I wanna go home
Where I belong
'Cause now I'm just a lonely teenager
(I wanna go back home
Just let me go back home)
I'd love to go back home (back home)
Where I belong (back home)
I know I'd be alright
If I just stay out of sight
I wanna go home
Where I belong
'Cause now i'm just a lonely teenager
(I wanna go back home
Please let me go back home)
Lonely teenager ...

In My Arms
In My Arms
Composer(s): Ted Grouya; Frank Loesser
Performer(s): Dick Haymes
and multiple other artists
His cousin had sent him a sweater
And his sister wrote a letter
But he wanted something much better
This boy who was sailing away
For his buddies were with their sweethearts
All around him with their sweethearts
Now he'd never had any sweethearts
And over and over he'd say
In my arms, in my arms
Ain't I never gonna have a girl in my arms
In my arms, in my arms
Ain't I never gonna get a bundle of charms
Comes the dawn, I'll be gone
I just gotta have a honey holdin' me tight
You can keep your knittin' and purlin'
If I'm gonna go to Berlin
Gimme a girl in my arms tonight
His grandma had sent him some candy
And as he chewed on the candy
He said my morale is just dandy
And still there's a tear in my eye
For his buddies were there with their sweethearts
Kissing bye-bye with their sweethearts
Now he'd never had any sweethearts
And over and over he'd cry
In my arms, in my arms
Ain't I never gonna have a girl in my arms
In my arms, in my arms
Ain't I never gonna get a bundle of charms
Comes the dawn, I'll be gone
And I thank you for the many letters you'll write
As for something nice and cute and female
I'll never get it in the V-mail
Gimme a girl in my arms tonight
In my arms, in my arms
Ain't I never gonna have a girl in my arms
In my arms, in my arms
Ain't I never gonna get a bundle of charms
Comes the dawn, I'll be gone
I'll be headin' for the very thick of the fight
You can wine and dine and cigarette me
But if you really wanna get me
Gimme a girl in my arms tonight
In my arms, in my arms
Ain't I never gonna have a girl in my arms
In my arms, in my arms
Ain't I never gonna get a bundle of charms
Comes the dawn, I'll be gone
Now does anyone wanna please treat me right
You can keep your shavin' cream and lotion
If I'm a-gonna cross the ocean
Give me a girl in my arms tonight

In M'n Droom
In M'n Droom
Composer(s): Jimmy Frey; Nelly Byl
Performer(s): Jimmy Frey
Nooit zal jij m'n meisje zijn
Omdat jij met een ander trouwt
Met een jongen die van je houdt
En die mij als zijn vriend beschouwt
Nooit zal jij m'n meisje zijn
Omdat je te aller eerlijk bent
En hem al je liefde schenkt
Je bent niet vrij 't is nu voorbij
Maar in m'n droom
Neem ik jou steeds in m'n armen zo zacht
In m'n droom
Hou ik jou altijd zo dicht bij m'n hart
In m'n droom
Staat er niemand tussen jou en mij
Is er niemand zo verliefd als jij
Toch weet ik dat het nooit kan zijn
Nooit zal jij m'n meisje zijn
Van m'n liefde vermoed je niets
Als je mij in de ogen ziet
Daar mijn gelaat mij nooit verraadt
Heel m'n houding is maar schijn
Heel m'n leven een soort toneel
Dat ik dagelijks komedie speel
Maar 's nachts dan komt het tweede deel
Maar in m'n droom
Neem ik jou steeds in m'n armen zo zacht
In m'n droom
Hou ik jou altijd zo dicht bij m'n hart
In m'n droom
Staat er niemand tussen jou en mij
Is er niemand zo verliefd als jij
Toch weet ik dat het nooit kan zijn
Dat het nooit, nooit kan zijn
Dat het nooit, nooit kan zijn
Dat het nooit, nooit kan zijn
