How Glad I Am
How Glad I Am
Performer(s): Kiki Dee
My love has no beginning, my love has no end
No front no back, my love won't bend
I'm in the middle, I'm lost in a spin
Loving you
And you don't know, you don't know, you don't know, you don't know
How glad I am
My love has no bottom, my love has no top
My love won't rise, my love won't drop
I'm in the middle, and I can't stop
Loving you
And you don't know, you don't know, you don't know, you don't know
How glad I am
I wish I was a poet, so that I could express
What I, what I like to say
I wish I was an artist, so that I could paint a picture
Of how I feel, how I feel today, today
My love has no walls on either side
That makes my love whiter than white
I'm in the middle, no and I can't hide
Loving you
And you don't know, you don't know, you don't know, you don't know
How glad I am
No you don't know, you don't know, you don't know, you don't know
How glad I am
How glad I am
How glad I am

A Million To One
A Million To One
Composer(s): Phil Medley - Teddy Randazzo
Performer(s): Jimmy Charles
and multiple other artists
A million to one
That's what our folks think about this love of ours
A million to one
They say that our love will fade like yesterday's flowers
They're betting everything that our love won't survive
They're hoping (hoping) in time we'll forget
Each others' lies.
A million to one
They feel we're too young to know the meaning of love
A million to one
That they've forgotten the dreams that we're dreaming of
But we'll forgive them because we love them
After all is said and done
Dear one, in a million, a million to one
(But we'll forgive them because we love them)
After all is said and done
Dear one, in a million, a million to one

How Far Is Heaven
How Far Is Heaven
Composer(s): Tillman Franks; Jimmie Davis
Performer(s): Kitty Wells;
Ginger Boatwright; The Forbes Family
A little girl was waiting for her daddy one day
It was time to meet him, when she heard her mommy say
Come to mommy, darling, please do not cry
Daddy's gone to heaven, way up in the sky
Chorus:
How far is heaven, when can I go
To see my daddy, he's there, I know
How far is heaven, let's go tonight
I want my daddy to hold me tight
He was called so suddenly and could not say goodbye
I know that he's in heaven, we'll meet him by and by
The little girl trembled, her tears she could not hide
She looked up toward heaven and then she replied
Repeat Chorus

Abie's Irish Rose
Abie's Irish Rose
Composer(s): Mel Tormé - Robert Wells
Have you seen Abie?
He's like a baby with a brand new toy
I've never seen such a bundle of joy
He says that Rosie
Made his life cozy
And I know it's true
And you can make the same thing happen to you
Here's what you do
Take a little time to tip your hat
And don't live a life dull of may-bes
A sample example is Abie's Irish Rose
She doesn't mind if skies are cloudy
Or if birds forget to sing
What ever happens she'll find a little good in ev'rything
You don't have to be a democrat
To walk up and chat with your neighbor
You can't say a hand-shake is labor, heaven knows
If you laugh at the bad things
Work at the glad things
Remember to say your "Hellos"
You'll be happy as Abie
And Abie's Irish Rose

A Million Teardrops
A Million Teardrops
Composer(s): Eddie Cochran
Performer(s): John T. Webster III & Anna
There must be a million (there must be a million)
Teardrops falling down (they're falling down)
Yes, there must be a million (yes, there's one million)
I'll forget somehow (I'll forget somehow)
How long I am crying, still I'm yours to commend
Take this love that I give you, here's my heart in my hand
Alone, alone I am crying (Oh, how I cry)
I am yours to commend (I'm yours to commend)
Take this love that I give you (my, my love I give you)
Here's my heart in my hand

A Million Moons Ago
A Million Moons Ago
Composer(s): Dick Gilbert - Paul Insetta
Performer(s): Jerry Vale
A million moons ago you said I love you so
Then suddenly you took your love from me
A million times I've tried
But a million smiles can't hide the ache that lingers way down deep inside
A million sighs have past since you said our love would last
For with the dawn I found that you were gone
A million stars so bright grew cold and lost their light
A million moons ago last night
A million moons ago you said I love you so
Then suddenly you took your love from me
A million stars so bright grew cold and lost their light
A million moons ago last night

How Does The Wine Taste?
How Does The Wine Taste?
Composer(s): Matt Dubbey; Harold Karr
Performer(s): Barbra Streisand; Vikki Carr;
Kristopher McDowell; Carmen McRae
How does the wine taste?
Does it stain your lips?
What is the fruit-like?
Just beyond my finger tips?
Just out of reach I see so much
I cannot taste and mustn't touch
Tied to my little world
My safe little world
What would it be like
If I broke the string?
Would it be lovely
And a little frightening?
There is so much I've never understood
How does the wine taste? is it good?
How does the wine taste?
Does it make you glow?
How does the wine taste?
How does the wine taste?
How does the wine taste?
I think you know!
Ooom...

A Million Miles To The City
A Million Miles To The City
Composer(s): Tom T. Hall
Performer(s): Tom T. Hall; Bobby Bare
I remember it now we were kids back then living down on the farm
We were told that the city could only bring us harm
Well how far away is the city you know that's a great big town
And Barbara said why it's a million miles and then the story got around
It's a million miles to the city from the hills and valleys we know
It's a million miles to the city and some day we all wanna go
There was a town nearby but a town is a town and a city that's somethin' else
Our daddy had been to a city but he never was much help
The buildings're taller than oak trees ah but we knew better than that
'Cause ain't nobody could climb that high the city was wide and flat
It's a million miles...
The years have passed and we have grown and traveled far and wide
The cities have changed the kids we were we see it in each other's eyes
Lord I'd love to go back to those hills again to the boy I used to be
Where the leaves in the wind and the whippoorwills
Were all just a part of the land like me
It's a million miles...

A Million Miles Away Behind The Door
A Million Miles Away Behind The Door
Composer(s): Alan Jay Lerner - André Previn
Performer(s): Anita Gordon
Send back the world
There's too much night for me
The sky is much too high
To shelter me when darkness falls
Four cabin walls
Would be just right for me
I need a threshold I can cross
When I can sit and gather moss
Forevermore
A million miles away behind the door
Roll up the plains
There's too much view for me
There's so much space between
The waiting heart, and whispered word
It's never heard
One room will do for me
Where every evening I can stare
At someone smiling from his chair
Across the floor
A million miles away behind the door
Where every evening I can stare
At someone smiling from his chair
Across the floor
A million miles away behind the door
No fears
No fools
No lies
No rules
Just doing with my life
What life is for
A million miles away behind the door

How Does It Feel?
How Does It Feel?
Composer(s): Joe Sherman; George David Weiss
Performer(s): Nat King Cole
How does it feel when you find that your dreams are through?
How does it feel when you know that the laugh's on you?
Thought you were smart for breaking my heart
When you took that exit bow
Someone you met has made you forget, so who's the smart one now?
How does it feel when you find that your big romance
Wasn't so real, it was only a song and dance?
Maybe it's fun to kiss and then run
And hurt somebody too
But how does it feel
Now that it's happened to you?
But how does it feel now that it's happened to
How does it feel, now that it's happened
But how does it feel
Now that it's happened to you?

A Million Miles Away
A Million Miles Away
Composer(s): David Paich
Performer(s): Toto
I don't want to know the reason why you don't love me
I don't want to know the reason why you don't care
I don't want to know the reason why you're leavin' me
I'm not the only one that lost my love way down there - way down there
I don't want to hear the reason why you don't need me
I don't want to hear the reason why you don't stay
I don't want to hear the reason why you're seeing him
All I know is that I want you back, but you're
A million miles away and it's killin' me inside
There's a stranger in a carriage and he's takin' her out tonight
The devil's ridin' on a full moon and he sends his love
When I'm a million miles away
I don't want to be the reason why you don't love me
And I don't want to be the reason why you don't care
I don't want to be the reason why you're leavin' me
I'm not the only one that lost my love
A million miles away and it's killin' me inside
There's a stranger in a carriage and he's takin' her out tonight
The devil's ridin' on a full moon and he sends his love
When I'm a million miles away
He sends his love and I'm a hundred million miles away

How Do You Sleep?
How Do You Sleep?
Composer(s): John Lennon
Performer(s): John Lennon;
and various other artists
So Sgt. Pepper took you by surprise
You better see right through that mother's eyes
Those freaks was right when they said you was dead
The one mistake you made was in your head
Ah, how do you sleep?
Ah, how do you sleep at night?
You live with straights who tell you you was king
Jump when your momma tell you anything
The only thing you done was yesterday
And since you're gone you're just another day
Ah, how do you sleep?
Ah, how do you sleep at night?
Ah, how do you sleep?
Ah, how do you sleep at night?
A pretty face may last a year or two
But pretty soon they'll see what you can do
The sound you make is music to my ears
You must have learned something in all those years
Ah, how do you sleep?
Ah, how do you sleep at night?

A Million Dreams Ago
A Million Dreams Ago
Composer(s): Lew Quadling - Eddy Howard - Dick Jurgens
Performer(s): Harry Cool
and multiple other artists
I can remember love's burning ember
When after the laughter came tears
Each word that was spoken, I kept as a token
Among my souvenirs...
You told me it was so, a million dreams ago
You held me in your arms, a million dreams ago
So many dreams have flown, so many nights alone
I guess I should have known, it couldn't be
I'll lock my mem'ries here in my heart
And here in my heart they'll stay
And through the years they'll always be part
A part of a lovely day
Goodbye, good luck old friend
I'll smile and just pretend
There was no end
A million dreams ago

The Show Is Over
The Show Is Over
Composer(s): Petula Clark
Performer(s): Petula Clark
The show is over now
Our song is dying
This is the end my friend
There isn't any more
You played the part so well
There's no denying
For I believed each lie from lips that I adore
I was a fool to feel that your love was real
But how was I to know it was just a great big show
The stage is empty now
the lights are fading
and as the curtain falls
my heart calls tell me why
the show is over now and here am I
(I was a fool to feel that your love was real)
But how was I to know it was all a great big show
The stage is empty now
The lights are fading
And as the curtain falls
My heart calls tell me why
The show is over now and here am I

À Mi-Chemin De L'existence
À Mi-Chemin De L'existence
Composer(s): Yves Duteil
Performer(s): Yves Duteil
À mi-chemin de l'existence
Où plus rien n'est écrit d'avance
Je m'éveille au-dessus du sol
Ma conscience a pris son envol
Je n'étais ni bon ni mauvais
Et pourtant maintenant je sais
Que je peux devenir meilleur
Ouvrir encore plus grand mon cœur
J'ai découvert dans ton amour
Des secrets si forts et si lourds
Qu'il sera plus doux plus léger
D'être à deux pour les partager
Ce qui s'écrit du temps passé
Jamais plus ne peut s'effacer
Mais il reste la vie entière
Pour regarder vers la lumière
Et si des chagrins des blessures
Sont gravés dans notre aventure
Il en reste aussi le meilleur
En joies profondes et en bonheur
J'ai compris qu'il fallait vouloir
Pour bâtir et pour s'émouvoir
À vieillir auprès de ton cœur
L'avenir ne me fait pas peur
Je donnerais ma vie en gage
Pour tout l'amour de ton visage
Et le reste de mes années
S'il fallait, pour recommencer
Chaque jour en tournant la page
Ressemble au début d'un voyage
C'est aujourd'hui que je suis né
Pour revivre et pour espérer
À mi-chemin de l'existence
Où plus rien n'est écrit d'avance
Je suis bien, au-dessus du sol
Mon amour a repris son vol

How Do You Keep The Music Playing?
How Do You Keep The Music Playing?
Composer(s): Alan Bergman; Marilyn Bergman; Michel Legrand
Performer(s): James Ingram;
and various other artists
How do you keep the music playing?
How do you make it last?
How do you keep the song from fading too fast?
How do you lose yourself to someone?
And never lose your ways
How do you not run out of new things to say?
And since we're always changing
How can it be the same?
And tell me how year after year
You're sure your heart will fall apart
Each time you hear his name
I know the way I feel for you
It's now or never
The more I love the more that i'm afraid
That in your eyes I may not see forever..
Forever...
If we can be the best of lovers
Yet be the best of friends
If we can try with everyday to make it better as it grows
With any luck, then I suppose
The music never ends
I know the way I feel for you
It's now or never!
(How do you keep the music playing?)
The more I love the more that I'm afraid
(How do you make it last)
That in your eyes I may not see forever
Forever...
(How do you keep the song from fading, keep the song from fading too fast)
If we can be the best of lovers
Yet be the best of friends
If we can try with everyday to make it better as it grows
With any luck, then I suppose
The music never ends
