When Sunny Gets Blue
When Sunny Gets Blue
Composer(s): Jack Segal; Marvin Fisher
Performer(s): Johnny Mathis
When Sunny gets blue, her eyes get gray and cloudy
Then the rain begins to fall
Pitter-patter, pitter-patter, love is gone so what can matter?
No sweet lovin' man comes to call
When Sunny gets blue, she breathes a sigh of sadness
Like the wind that stirs the trees
Wind that sets the leaves to swayin' like some violins are playin'
Weird and haunting melodies
People used to love to-o-o hear her laugh, see her smile
That's how she got her name
Since that sad affair she's lost her smile, changed her style
Somehow she's not the same
But mem'ries will fade and pretty dreams will rise up
Where her other dreams fell through
Hurry, new love, hurry here to kiss away each lonely tear
And hold her near when Sunny gets blue
Hurry, new love, hurry here to kiss away each lonely tear
And hold her near when Sunny gets blue

(Ain't Nobody Loves You) Like I Do
(Ain't Nobody Loves You) Like I Do
Performer(s): La Toya Jackson
There ain't nobody loves you like I do
You think that I've been cheating
I can see it in your eyes
They say that I've been running round
do you believe in lies ?
Ooh
ooh
loving you
that's all I wanna do
Do I have to prove myself to you ? - Yeah
I wouldn't hurt you baby
don't believe a word they say
After all that we've been through how could I anyway ?
So you think that I could really be so cruel
There ain't no mountain high I wouldn't climb for you 'cause
There ain't nobody loves you like I do
Don't let their jealous talk get through to you
'Cause if they start a rumour that my heart ain't true
Don't let it come between us 'cause there ain't nobody loves you like I do
You got so many questions
I can see it in your face
They say that my affections are somehow out of place
Ooh
ooh
loving you
that's all I wanna do
There's no river deep I wouldn't swim for you 'cause
There ain't nobody loves you like I do
AII this time you were playing on my mind
Didn't think you were the kind to throw it all away
What was I to do
I should've seen right through
AII the bad
bad lies tearing me apart inside!
Ooh
ooh
loving you is all I wanna do
Ooh
there ain't a thing I wouldn't do for you 'cause
There ain't nobody loves you like I do
There ain't nobody loves you like I do
There ain't nobody loves you like I do

When Summer Is Gone
When Summer Is Gone
Composer(s): Sonny Curtis
Performer(s): Gary Lewis & The Playboys
I'll see you in September when summer is gone
Have a good time but remember, I'll be waiting back home
And when you go out dating with some guy all alone
Just remember I'll be waiting when summer is gone
When the warm June nights surround you
Don't fall under his spell
When he puts his arms around you
Remember that I loved you so well
And I'll see you in September when summer is gone
Have a good time but remember
Come back to me when summer is gone
When the warm June nights surround you
Don't fall under his spell
When he puts his arms around you
Remember that I loved you so well
And I'll see you in September when summer is gone
Have a good time but remember
Come back to me when summer is gone

Ain't Nobody Home (In California)
Ain't Nobody Home (In California)
Composer(s): John Kay
Performer(s): John Kay
When I returned here back from the Islands
You know I couldn't say enough 'bout old Kauai
But now I'm out here on the road
Calling friends back home
But I just get the phone machine and this reply
Ain't nobody home in California
All your friends have gone to Molokai
Ain't nobody home in California
Everybody's off to see Hawaii
May your journey seem forever
May the Islands touch your heart
And if you leave it all the way you found it
May the peace that you'll find never part
I wish I'd be there, back in the Islands
You know, I'd ride along the beach at Hana Bay
But I'm stuck in Waco, Texas
At the Paradise Motel
And now there's no one waiting for me in L.A.
'Cause
Nobody's home in California
All your friends have gone to Molokai
Ain't nobody home in California
Everybody's off to see Hawaii
Soon my travels will be over
And soon a plane will take me home
And just as soon I can make it over
I'll be leaving these words on my phone
Ain't nobody home in California…..

When Somebody Thinks You're Wonderful
When Somebody Thinks You're Wonderful
Composer(s): Harry Woods
Performer(s): Fats Waller;
and various other artists
When somebody thinks you're wonderful
What a difference in your day
Seems as though your troubles disappear
Like a feather in your way
When somebody thinks you're wonderful
Tells you with a smile so sweet
What are little stones you're steppin' on
Just a meadow 'neath your feet
And how you meet the morning
You gaily swing along
At night you may be weary
But your heart still sings a song
When somebody thinks you're wonderful
Love is mighty close to you
Just another thing more wonderful
Making all her dreams come true

Ain't Nobody Here But Us Chickens
Composer(s): Alex Kramer - Joan Whitney
First release by: Louis Jordan & His Tympany Five - 1946
Covered by multiple other artists
One night farmer brown was takin' the air
Locked up the barnyard with the greatest of care
Down in the hen house something stirred
When he shouted, "who's there?"
This is what he heard
There ain't nobody here but us chickens
There ain't nobody here at all
So quiet yourself and stop that fuss
There ain't nobody here but us
We chickens tryin' to sleep and you bust in
And hobble, hobble, hobble, hobble, with your chin
There ain't nobody here but us chickens
There ain't nobody here at all
You're stompin' around and shakin' the ground
You’re Kicking up an ful dust
We chickens tryin' to sleep and you bust in
And hobble, hobble, hobble, hobble, it's a sin
Tomorrow is a busy day
We got things to do, we got eggs to lay
Worms to catch, ground to scratch
It takes a lot of sittin', gettin' chicks to hatch
There ain’t nobody here but us chickens
There ain’t nobody here at all
So quiet yourself and stop that fuss
There ain’t nobody here but us
And kindly point that gun the other way
And hobble, hobble, hobble off and hit the hay
Tomorrow is a busy day
We got things to do, we got eggs to lay
Worms to catch and ground to scratch
It takes a lot of settin', gettin' chicks to hatch
There ain’t nobody here but us chickens
There ain’t nobody here at all
So quiet yourself and stop that fuss
There ain’t nobody here but us
And kindly point that gun the other way
And hobble, hobble, hobble off and hit the hay

When Something Is Wrong With My Baby
When Something Is Wrong With My Baby
Composer(s): Isaac Hayes; David Porter
Performer(s): Linda Ronstadt
When something is wrong with my baby
Something is wrong is me
And if I know that she's worried
I know I'd feel the same misery
We've been through so much together
We stand as one
That's what makes it better
When something is wrong with my baby
Something is wrong with me
Just what she means to me now
Oh you just you just wouldn't understand
People can say that she's no good
But she's my woman and I know I'm her man
And if he's got a problem
Woo-oah I know I got to help him solve 'em
When something is wrong with my baby
Something is wrong with me
When something is wrong with my baby
Something is wrong with my baby
When something is wrong with my baby
Something is wrong with me

Ain't Nobody But Me
Ain't Nobody But Me
Composer(s): Rick Davies - Roger Hodgson
Performer(s): Supertramp
Let me tell you a story that'll make a change
Let me tell you when I'm way out of range
It's about a man who's crueler than me
So promise not to cause a scene
Heaven help the one's you love
There's no big need for stars above
Well, you can run, you, know he'll find you
It don't matter now, just look behind you
You had your warn, and you knew the score
You got it wrong, and that means war
So, why'd you have to treat me rough
Your explanation's not enough
Ain't nobody but me
Gonna lie for you, gonna die for you
Ain't no fish in the sea
Gonna sigh for you, gonna try for you
Gonna lie for you, gonna die for you
Wooh
You see, I got a mental disposition
Sometimes, I'm mean, sometimes I'm vicious
I'm Dr. Jekyll, I'm Mr. Hyde
So if you wanna stay alive
Just give me all you've got to give
And, then perhaps I'll let you live
Ain't nobody but me
Gonna lie for you, gonna die for you
Ain't no fish in the sea
Gonna sigh for you, gonna try for you
Gonna lie for you, gonna die for you
Gonna sigh for you, gonna try for you
Gonna lie for you, gonna die for you
(Hush) Now baby, stop your crying
(Oh Yes) I know that I've been lying
(Hush) Now baby, stop your crying
(Oh Yes) I know that I've been lying
(Hush) Now baby, stop your crying
(Oh Yes) I know that I've been lying
(Hush) Now baby, stop your crying
(Oh Yes) I know that I've been lying

Ain't Nobody
Composer(s): David Wolinski
First release by: Rufus & Chaka Khan - 1983
Covered by multiple other artists
Captured effortlesly
That's the way it was
It happens so naturely
I did not know it was love
The next thing I felt was you
Holding me close
What was I gonna do
I let myself go
And now we fly through the stars
Want this night will last for ever
I've been waiting for you
It's been so long
I knew just what I would do when I heard your song
I fill my heart with your kiss
It gave me freedom
You knew I could not resist
I needed someone
And now we're flying through the stars
I hope this night lasts for ever
Ain't nobody (Nobody)
Loves me better (Loves Me Better)
Makes me happy
Makes me feel this way (Nobody)
Ain't nobody (Nobody)
Loves me better (Than You)
I wait for nighttime to come to bring you to me
Can't believe I'm the one
I was so lonely
I feel like noone can feel
I must be dreamin'
I want this dream to be real
I'm in this feeling
I make my whish upon a star
And hope this night will last for ever
Ain't nobody (Nobody)
Loves me better (Loves Me Better)
Makes me happy this way
Makes me feel this way (Nobody)
Ain't nobody (Nobody Baby)
Loves me better
Ain't nobody
Loves me better (Than You)
I wish you put your arms around me
Yeah you put your arms around me
I can't resist this sweet surrender
Oh, my night's so warm and tender
We stare into each others eyes
And what we seek is no surprise
I've got a feeling most would treasure
And our love's so deep we cannot measure

When She Makes Music
When She Makes Music
Composer(s): Marvin Fisher; Jack Segal
Performer(s): Jack Jones;
Julie London; George Shearing
All she has to do is say "Hello"
And that's the sweetest melody I know
The sound of angels singing soft and low
When she makes music
Her laughter is an echo in the breeze
That hushes larks and thrushes in the trees
And calms the wave that rushes from the seas
When she makes music
Any time she breathes a sigh
The symphony begins
Every time she says "Goodbye"
A million violins start crying
The song is sad until we meet again
We kiss and then the song is sweet again
But whether she is far away or very near
She makes music only I can hear
Every time she says "Goodbye"
A million violins start crying
The song is sad until we meet again
We kiss and then the song is sweet again
But whether she is far away or very near
She makes music only I can hear

(Ain't no woman like the one I've got)
(Ain't no woman like the one I've got)
(Ain't no woman like the one I've got)
Every day the sun comes up around her
She can make the birds sing harmony
Every drop of rain is glad it found her
Heaven must have made her just for me
When she smiles so warm and tender
A sight for sore eyes to see
Oooh, (ain't no woman like the one I've got)
Oh, no, they don't come better
(To make her happy doesn't take a lot)
She don't ask for things, no diamond rings
(So together, like a hand in glove)
Like pages in a letter
(Ain't no woman like the one I love)
She can fill me up when it's down I'm goin' (I'm goin')
Put a little music in my day
Wouldn't be surprised if my love keeps growin' (it keeps growin')
Bigger every minute that she stays away
I would kiss the ground she walks on
'Cause it's my word, my word she'll obey, now
Woo-ooh. (Ain't no woman like the one I've got)
Well, I kiss the ground she walks on
(To make her happy doesn't take a lot)
She's a real good friend right to the end
(So together like a hand in glove)
A lonely man when she's gone
(People, ain't no woman like the one I love)
Oooh. What a good, good thing I've got
She means to me a lot
(Ain't no woman like the I've got)
No, no, they don't come better
(To make her happy doesn't take a lot)
She don't ask for things, no diamond rings
(So together, like a hand in glove)
Like pages in a letter
(Ain't no woman like the one I love, people)
(Ain't no woman like the one I've got)
Well, I kiss the ground she walks on
(To make her happy doesn't take a lot)
I'm a lonely man when my baby's gone

When She Loved Me
When She Loved Me
Composer(s): Randy Newman
Performer(s): Sarah McLachlan;
and various other artists
When somebody loved me
Everything was beautiful
Every hour we spent together
Lives within my heart
And when she was sad
I was there to dry her tears
And when she was happy so was I
When she loved me
Through the summer and the fall
We had each other that was all
Just she and I together
Like it was meant to be
And when she was lonely
I was there to comfort her
And I knew that she loved me
So the years went by
I stayed the same
But she began to drift away
I was left alone
Still I waited for the day
When she'd say
I will always love you
Lonely and forgotten
Never thought she'd look my way
And she smiled at me
And held me
Just like she used to do
Like she loved me
When she loved me
When somebody loved me
Everything was beautiful
Every hour we spent together
Lives within my heart
When she loved me

'Cause there ain't no wheels on this ship
And we can't row row row

When Shadows Fall I Hear You Calling California
When Shadows Fall I Hear You Calling California
Performer(s): Tot Seymour; Milo Rega
You'll find every native son, when his roaming days are done
has a feeling so forlorn for the place where he was born
I'm no different from the rest, I've that feeling in my breast
I've a longing for the Golden West
I can see each sun kissed hill, it gives me a wholesome thrill
and I see the orange tree, that once sheltered you and me
I hope I'll be back there soon, mid the roses' sweet perfume
where each day is like a day in June
When shadows fall I hear you calling California
your sheltering palms stretch out their arms
Each gentle breeze brings memories of California
in every dream I just seem to be going back to the one I love
I know somebody who is waiting to caress me
two eyes of blue, said they'd be true
I'm going there where the palm trees are swaying
that's where I'm longing to be
two loving arms beneath the palms are calling me

Ain't No Way To Treat A Lady
Ain't No Way To Treat A Lady
((French Version: Je Veux T'aimer Comme Une Femme (by Mireille Mathieu) - 1975))
Composer(s): Harriet Schock
First release by: Harriet Schock - 1974
Covered by multiple other artists
I guess it was yourself you were involved with
I would have sworn it was me
I might have found out sooner if
You'd only let me close enough to see
That ain't no way to treat a lady
No way to treat your baby
Your woman your friend
That ain't no way to treat a lady, no way
But maybe it's a way for us to end
I was only bein' a picture
With all the colors I know
While you were busy looking into
Wide blue mirrors and lovin' the show
That ain't no way to treat a lady
No way to treat your baby
Your woman your friend
That ain't no way to treat a lady, no way
But maybe it's a way for us to end
There's a funny kind of consolation
Keepin' me sane
And I'd really like to share it
Crawl on deep in my brain
You see the time you never felt me
Lovin' you or needin' you
So leavin' you now
You still won't know how to feel the pain
I was lookin' out for my happiness
While you were looking within
And before you know your own reflection
Always starts to tire you, it's happened again
That ain't no way to treat a lady
No way to treat your baby
Your woman your friend
That ain't no way to treat a lady, no way
But maybe it's a way for us to end
That ain't no way to treat a lady
No way to treat your baby
Your woman your friend
That ain't no way to treat a lady, no way
But maybe it's a way for us to end ...

When Seasons Change
When Seasons Change
Composer(s): Curtis Mayfield
Performer(s): Curtis Mayfield
When seasons change – and we've again surpassed September
A lot of scars – that kind of scare you to remember
Scufflin' times – in seeing people trying to put you down
For goodness sakes
People trying to take what you know you've found
Stranded in someone else's neighborhood
Listening to the undertone
Lord! Sure makes it a blessing to know you got your own
Time makes you suffer – when seasons change
Can't call no names – when you got your own self to blame
Praying to Jesus – make me a little stronger
So I might live the life – a little bit longer
So many changes – going in and out of my life
How can anyone survive
When everybody's been made a sacrifice
Look all around – and see yourself so weak and so vulnerable
So you're trying to be strong – but your money ain't too long
And it's so terrible
Don't you know – if you want a good life
Best look into yourself
'Cause the world is cold – and everybody's bold
And there's no one else
Time makes you suffer – when seasons change
Can't call no names
When you got your own self to blame
Strain won't give me no – satisfaction
Taxes are taking up – a new collection
So many changes – going in and out of my life
How can anyone survive
When everybody's been made a sacrifice
Whon seasons change – and we've again surpassed September
A lot of scars – that kind of scare you to remember
Scuf flin' times – in seeing people trying to put you down
For goodness sakes
People trying to take what you know you've found

Je n'ai jamais compris les gens qui s'aiment et qui se cachent le cœur
Moi je voudrais crier ton nom crier ma joie de vivre au monde entier
Je veux t'aimer comme une femme t'aimer comme Juliette aimait Roméo
Je veux t'aimer comme une femme t'aimer comme un soleil d'été penché sur l'eau
Je voudrais s'écrire un poème et le jeter sur la mer
Pour qu'il voyage cent milles ans avec tous les bateaux et tous les oiseaux
Je veux t'aimer comme une femme t'aimer comme Juliette aimait Roméo
Je veux t'aimer comme une femme t'aimer comme un soleil d'été penché sur l'eau
Je voudrais écrire notre histoire sur chaque fleur
La poser sur des guitares qui font chanter les cœurs
Je ne veux pas garder pour moi ce grand amour qui chaque jour
Se réveille encore plus grand et plus fort qu'un grand amour
Je veux t'aimer comme une femme t'aimer comme Juliette aimait Roméo
Je veux t'aimer comme une femme t'aimer comme un soleil d'été penché sur l'eau
Je veux t'aimer comme une femme t'aimer comme Juliette aimait Roméo
Je veux t'aimer comme une femme t'aimer…
