Say It Every Day


Say It Every Day
Composer(s): J. Watson; E. Mckay
Performer(s): Reggie Goff



When you're in love it's wonderful
Remember to keep it that way
Tell her you think she's wonderful
Say it every day

Nothing is so deplorable
To find love and throw it away
Tell her that she's adorable
Say it every day

Don't take her love for granted
Although you may know it is there
Each little seed that's planted
Needs such tender care

You know your love will never die
But she may not see it that way
So tell her your love will never die
Say it every day

You know your love will never die
But she may not see it that way
So tell her your love will never die
Say it every day
Won't you say it every day

Performer(s): Ellen Drew, Virginia Dale, Lillian Cornell
and multiple other artists



Say it over and over again, over and over again
Never stop saying you're mine
Say it, ever and ever so sweet, ever and ever so sweet
Just like an old valentine
When you say I love you, the same old I love you
They whisper in stories and plays
You can change I love you, the same old I love you
To oh such a heavenly phrase
So say it softly and gently and then, over and over again
Never stop saying you're mine

Oh, What A Merry Christmas Day


Oh, What A Merry Christmas Day
Composer(s): Frederick Searles; Irwin Kostal
Performer(s): Walt Disney



Oh, what a merry christmas day
Hear the joyous music play
Bells are ringing
choirs singing

Oh, what a merry christmas day
sharing the season of good cheer
with the ones we hold so dear
friendly faces, warm embraces

Oh, what a merry christmas day
snowflakes covered country lanes
Jack Frost painted window panes
twinkling stars on christmas trees

oh, what happy memories
gathered 'round a fireplace
fam'lies filled with love and grace
from peaceful ember's glow
blessed Yuletide spirits grow
grow and grow
grow and grow

Joy to the children far and near
what a won'drous time of year
isn't is just grand to say
merry, merry christmas
merry, merry christmas
Oh, what a merry christmas day!

Say I Won't Be There


Say I Won't Be There
Composer(s): Tom Springfield
Performer(s): The Springfields



Call the boys and tell them
Say I won't be there
You can tell them
I'm not going anywhere
Yesterday was dreaming
But my dream came tumbling down

Call the boys and tell them
Say I won't be there
If you see my darling out there in the crowd
Say I still remember promises we vowed
Yesterday was dreaming
But my dream came tumbling down

Call the boys and tell them
Say I won't be there
Bring me back my darling
Be my friend for life
I don't want no new lover
I just want a true lover

Call the boys and tell them
I won't spoil their fun
Everyone there dancing
But I'm the lonely one
Yesterday was dreaming
But my dream came tumbling down

Call the boys and tell them
Say I won't be there
Bring me back my darling
Be my friend for life
Oh, I don't want no new lover
I just want a true lover

Call the boys and tell them
I won't spoil their fun
Everyone there dancing
But I'm the lonely one
Yesterday was dreaming
But my dream came tumbling down

Call the boys and tell them
Say I won't be there
I won't be there

Say Goodnight (Brahm's Lullaby)


Say Goodnight (Brahm's Lullaby)
Performer(s): Eddy Arnold



Say goodnight, little one
Save some fun for tomorrow
Wave a bye-bye to your light
For your light is sleepy too

For your toys are in bed
Now they're resting and dreaming
Snuggle tight, say goodnight
For it's time you should be dreaming too

Say goodnight to the Moon
For it soon will be leaving
Say goodnight to the stars
They are twinkling just for you

For your toys are in bed
Now they're resting and dreaming
Snuggle tight, say goodnight
For it's time you should be dreaming too
Goodnight baby

Say Goodbye To Hollywood


Say Goodbye To Hollywood
(German Version: So Ist Eben Hollywood - 1979)
Composer(s): Billy Joel
Performer(s): Billy Joel - 1976
and multiple other artists



Bobby's driving through the city tonight
Through the lights
In a hot new rent-a-car
He joins the lover in his heavy machine
It's a scene down on Sunset Boulevard

Say goodbye to Hollywood
Say goodbye my baby
Say goodbye to Hollywood
Say goodbye my baby

Johnny's taking care of things for a while
And his style is so right for troubadors
They got him sitting with his back to the door
Now he won't be my fast gun anymore

Say goodbye to Hollywood
Say goodbye my baby
Say goodbye to Hollywood
Say goodbye my baby

Moving on is a chance that you take everytime you try to stay together
Say a word out of line and you find that the friends you had are gone
Forever...forever
So many faces in and out of my life
Some will last, some will just be now and then
Life is a series of hellos and goodbyes
I'm afraid it's time for goodbye again

Say goodbye to Hollywood
Say goodbye my baby
Say goodbye to Hollywood
Say goodbye my baby

Moving on is a chance that you take everytime you try to stay together
Say a word out of line and you find that the friends you had are gone
Forever...forever
So many faces in and out of my life
Some will last, some will just be now and then
Life is a series of hellos and goodbyes
I'm afraid it's time for goodbye again

O Rejoice, Ye Christians, Loudly


O Rejoice, Ye Christians, Loudly
Composer(s): Christian Keimann



Hallelujah

Oh rejoice, ye Christians, loudly
For your joy is now begun
Wondrous things our God hath done
Tell abroad His goodness proudly
Who our race hath honour'd thus
That he deigns to dwell with us

Joy, O joy, beyond all gladness
Christ hath done away with sadness
Hence, all sorrow and repining
For the Son of grace is shining

See, my soul, thy Saviour chooses
Weakness here and poverty
In such love He comes to thee
Nor the hardest couch refuses
All He suffers for thy good
To redeem thee by His blood

Joy, then, joy beyond all gladness
Christ hath done away with sadness
Hence, all sorrow and repining
For the Sun of grace is shining

Lord, how thall I thank Thee rightly
I acknowledge that from Thee
Every blessing flows to me
Let me not forget it lightly
But to Thee through all things cleave
So shall heart and mind receive

Joy, yea, joy beyond all gladness
Christ hath done away with sadness
Hence, all sorrow, all repining
For the Sun of grace is shining

Jesu, guard and guide Thy members
Fill Thy brethren with Thy grace
Hear their prayers in every place
Quicken now life's faintest embers
Grant all Christians, far and near
Holy peace, a glad New Year

Joy, O joy, beyond all gladness
Christ hath done away with sadness
Hence, all sorrow, all repining
For the Sun of grace is shining

Say a prayer for me tonight
I'll need every prayer that you can spare
To get me by

Say a prayer and while you're praying

She's much too young to die

On to your Waterloo, whispers my heart
Pray I'll be Wellington, not Bonaparte

Oh, say a prayer for me this evening
Bow your head and please
Stay on your knees tonight

O Little Town Of Bethlehem


O Little Town Of Bethlehem
Composer(s): Phillips Brooks; Lewis H. Redner
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra;
and various other artists



O little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie!
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by
Yet in thy dark streets shineth
The everlasting Light
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight

For Christ is born of Mary
And gathered all above
While mortals sleep, the angels keep
Their watch of wondering love
O morning stars, together
Proclaim the holy birth!
And praises sing to God the King
And peace to men on earth

How silently, how silently
The wondrous gift is given!
So God imparts to human hearts
The blessings of his heaven
No ear may hear his coming
But in this world of sin
Where meek souls will receive him, still
The dear Christ enters in

Where children pure and happy
Pray to the blessed Child
Where misery cries out to thee
Son of the mother mild
Where charity stands watching
And faith holds wide the door
The dark night wakes, the glory breaks
And Christmas comes once more

O holy Child of Bethlehem!
Descend to us, we pray
Cast out our sin and enter in
Be born in us today
We hear the Christmas angels
The great glad tidings tell
O come to us, abide with us
Our Lord Emmanuel!

Say "Si, Si"


Say "Si, Si"
(Spanish Version: Para Vigo Me Voy)
Composer(s): Ernesto Lecuona; Francia Luban; Al Stillman
and multiple other artists



In Spain they say "Si, Si"
In France you'll hear "Oui, Oui"
Ev'ry little Dutch girl says "Ya, Ya"
Ev'ry little Russian says "Da, Da"

But, Sweetheart, tell me why
No matter how I try
You won't listen to my plea
Won't say "Yes" in any language to me
When will you say "Si, Si"

"Si, Si", "Si, Si"
"Si, Si", "Si, Si"
Ev'ry little Dutch girl says "Ya, Ya", ya-ya-ya
Ev'ry little Russian says "Da, Da"

But, Sweetheart, oh, why won't you tell me why
No matter how m-m-much I try, please tell me why
La-la-la-la-da, won't listen to my plea
Won't say "Yes" on any language to me
Oh-woh, and when you say "Si, Si", say "Si, Si"

La la la la la la la da da da da
La da da da da da da da
La da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da daaa

If you could only say "Si, Si", "Oui, Oui", "Ya, Ya", "Da, Da,"
Da da da la da
And all my life would be a song,
Nothing could go wrong, go wrong, go wrong

If you give in, I'll win
I won't give up, give up
Darling, if you give in
I must hear you say "Si, Si"

Oh, won't you listen to my plea
Please say "Yes" in any language to me
Won't you say "Si, Si", say "Si, Si"

O Holy Night


O Holy Night ((Adapted from: Minuit, Chrétiens - 1847 (aka Cantique De Noël)) Composer(s): Adolphe-Charles Adam; Placide Cappeau; John Sullivan Dwight Performer(s): Johnny Mathis - 1958 and multiple other artists



O holy night!
The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of the dear Saviour's birth
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
Till He appeared and the Spirit felt its worth
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn
Fall on your knees! Oh, hear the angel voices!
O night divine, the night when Christ was born
O night, O holy night, O night divine!
O night, O holy night, O night divine!

Led by the light of faith serenely beaming
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand
O'er the world a star is sweetly gleaming
Now come the wisemen from out of the Orient land
The King of kings lay thus lowly manger
In all our trials born to be our friends
He knows our need, our weakness is no stranger
Behold your King! Before him lowly bend!
Behold your King! Before him lowly bend!

Truly He taught us to love one another
His law is love and His gospel is peace
Chains he shall break, for the slave is our brother
And in his name all oppression shall cease
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we
With all our hearts we praise His holy name
Christ is the Lord!
Then ever, ever praise we
His power and glory ever more proclaim!
His power and glory ever more proclaim!

O Jesulein zart, dein Kripplein ist hart
O Jesulein zart, wie liegst du so hart!
Schlaf, Kind, schlaf, tu die Äuglein zu

Schlaf, Kind, schlaf
Tu die Äuglein zu
schlaf und gib uns die ewige Ruh!
Viel Engel im Stall, die wiegen dich all

Say
Composer(s): James Seals; Dash Crofts
Performer(s): Seals & Crofts



Say, have you ever been down, wished you had just a fin?
Say, have you seen the ground, wonder where you've been?
Say, I betcha don't know, I can tell your kind
Say, you wouldn't try to go, 'fraid to blow your mind
You ride a little, hide a little, close your eyes and sigh a little
Guard your mind and hide a little
Say, can'tcha hear me say?

Say, can you see the light bleedin' through the shade?
Say, are you readin' me right, or are you too afraid?
Say, take a bit of a look, tell me what you think you see
Say, have you ever been took?
You're lookin' like you ought to be
You ride a little, hide a little, close your eyes and sigh a little
Guard your mind and hide a little
Say, can'tcha hear me say?
