Will You Love Me Tomorrow?
Will You Love Me Tomorrow? (aka Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow)
Composer(s): Carole King; Gerry Goffin
Performer(s): The Shirelles;
and various other artists
Tonight you're mine completely
You give you love so sweetly
Tonight the light of love is in your eyes
But will you love me tomorrow?
Is this a lasting treasure
Or just a moment's pleasure?
Can I believe the magic of your sighs?
Will you still love me tomorrow?
Tonight with words unspoken
You say that I'm the only one
But will my heart be broken
When the night meets the morning sun?
I'd like to know that your love
Is love I can be sure of
So tell me now, and I won't ask again
Will you still love me tomorrow?
So tell me now, and I won't ask again
Will you still love me tomorrow?
Will you still love me tomorrow?
Will you still love me tomorrow?

All Those Years Ago
All Those Years Ago
Composer(s): George Harrison
Performer(s): George Harrison
I'm shouting all about love
While they treated you like a dog
When you were the one who had made it so clear
All those years ago
I'm talking all about how to give
They don't act with much honesty
But you point the way to the truth when you say
All you need is love
Living with the good and the bad
I always looked up to you
Now we're left cold and sad
By someone the devil's best friend
Someone who offended all
We're living in a bad dream
They've forgotten all about mankind
And you were the one they backed up to the wall
All those years ago
You were the one who Imagined it all
All those years ago
Deep in the darkest night
I send out a prayer to you
Now in the world of light
Where the spirit free of the lies
And all else we despised
They've forgotten all about God
He's the only reason we exist
Yet you were the one that they said was so weird
All those years ago
You said it all though not many had ears
All those years ago
You had control of our smiles and our tears
All those years ago
What shall we do, what shall we do with all this useless beauty?
All this useless beauty

Will You Love Me In December As You Do In May?
Will You Love Me In December As You Do In May?
Composer(s): J.J. Walker; Ernest R. Ball
Performer(s): Joan Morris & William Bolcom
Now in the summer of life sweetheart
You say you love but me
Gladly I give all my heart to you
Throbbing with ecstacy
But last night I saw while a dreaming
The future old and gray
And I wondered if you'll love me then dear
Just as you do today
You say the glow on my cheek sweetheart
Is like the rose so sweet
But when the bloom of fair youth has flown
Then will our lips still meet?
When life's setting sun fades away dear
And all is said and done
Will your arms still entwine and caress me
Will our hearts beat as one?
Will you love me in the December as you do in May
Will you love me in the good old fashioned way?
When my hair has turned all gray
Will you kiss me then and say
That you love me in December as you do in May?

All This Useless Beauty
All This Useless Beauty
Composer(s): Elvis Costello
First release by: June Tabor - 1992
It’s at times such as this she’d be tempted to spit
If she wasn’t so ladylike
She imagines how she might have lived
Back when legends and history collide
So she looks to her prince finding he’s so charmingly
Slumped at her side
Those days are recalled on the gallery wall
And she’s waiting for passion or humour to strike
What shall we do, what shall we do with all this useless beauty?
All this useless beauty
Good friday arrived, the sky darkened on time
’til he almost began to negotiate
She held his head like a baby and said "it’s okay if you cry"
Now he wants her to dress as if you couldn’t guess
He desires to impress his associates
But he’s part ugly beast and hellenic deceased
So she finds that the mixture is hard to deny
What shall we do, what shall we do with all this useless beauty?
All this useless beauty
She won’t practice the looks from the great tragic books
That were later disgraced to face celluloid
It won’t even make sense but you can bet
If she isn’t a sweetheart or plaything or pet
The film turns her into an unveiled threat
Nonsense prevails, modesty fails
Grace and virtue turn into stupidity
While the calendar fades almost all barricades to a pale compromise
And our leaders have feasts on the backsides of beasts
They still think they’re the gods of antiquity
If something you missed didn’t even exist
It was just an ideal -- is it such a surprise?
What shall we do, what shall we do with all this useless beauty?
All this useless beauty
What shall we do, what shall we do with all this useless beauty?
All this useless beauty

Will You Forgive If I Forget?
Will You Forgive If I Forget?
Composer(s): Kurt Hirsekorn; Gabriel Selig
Oh could I but recall the past, dear
and all its bright and happy hours!
It would not be that now at last, dear
your love should fade like summer flowers
our hands, our lips have met in gladness
how can our lives be parted now
Let love's roses banish sadness, recall the shadow from your brow!
To take your image from my heart, dear
would be to take the light from day!
and if our paths on earth should part, dear
my fondest hopes would fade away!
Let not our little word now sever
the bliss, the dreams that we have known!
Oh, let us be sweethearts forever, let your dear love be all my own!
Say not farewell, ah leave that word unspoken
which brings a tear a bitter sigh!
say not the vows that once we made are broken
by one sad word that word Goodbye!
Oh! give me back your fond caresses
I cannot help I love you yet
the fault was mine my heart confesses
will you forgive if I forget?

All This Stuff Takes Time
All This Stuff Takes Time
Composer(s): Arlo Guthrie
Performer(s): Arlo Guthrie
It ain't so much the boredom
But the fire in her soul
That made her life unbearable
While living in that hole
Of her dark surburban nightmare
'Till she went to see the Dead
And the self esteem she valued
Was immediately spent
And she had no one to turn to
So she just turned off her mind
She's a well adjusted wanderer
But all this stuff takes time
On the streets of old Wyoming
There's a couple from L.A.
They are post-environmentalists
Looking for to stay
'Till their friends all come to join them
In the quest for air to breathe
And when it gets too crowded
They will just pick up and leave
Like they did in New York City
When the coast seemed quite sublime
It don't take much but money
And money just takes time
Marie is on the lounge chair
Draped around the pool
Avoiding almost anyone who'd
Desecrate he cool
It's the reason she's attractive
She's already self abused
And her pride won't feel the loneliness
That comes with being used
She's the center of the universe
For which she was designed
Until she wakes up wandering
Why all this stuff takes time
Bill died of a heart attack
Beating up his wife
Now he's come back as a lesbian
That's looking for his wife
Who is now a psychoanalyst
That likes to work with plants
Except of course on weekends
When she likes to wear the pants
She's a leather goddess minister
Who works with the confined
It don't take much to realize
That all this stuff takes time

All This Love
All This Love
Composer(s): El DeBarge
First release by: DeBarge - 1982
Covered by multiple other artists
I had some problems
And no one could seem to solve them
But you found the answer
You told me to take a chance
And learn the way of love, my baby
And all that it had to offer
In time you will see that love won't let you down
You said that you loved me
Said hurt only came to pass me
It sounded so convincing
That I gave it half a chance
And learned the way of love my baby
There is so much love inside me
And all that I have I give my all to you
(all, all my loving)
And all this love is waiting for you
(my baby, my sugar)
And all, all my love is waiting for you
All this love is waiting for you
(Oooh!)
And baby all, baby all this love is waiting for you
(my sugar)
Oh, I love how you make me feel this way
My love is getting stronger every day (my baby)
And after all I went and put myself through
I found that all I really needed was you (my darlin')
As the sun has its place up in the sky
I love you so dearly
And all the same, there's no need to wonder why
I need you, please hear me
Say you really love me, baby
Say you really love me, darlin'
For I really love you baby
You know I really love you darlin'
Say you really love me, baby
Say you really love me, darlin'
For I really love you baby
Sure enough love you darlin'
Say, say you love me......

Will There Be Any Yodeling In Heaven?
Performer(s): Bob Wills;
and various other artists
Will there be any yodeling in heaven
That is what I'd like to know
There can't be any wrong
In just singing a song
With a yodel lay-eee-ooh-my-lay-eee-tee
Yodel lay-dee-ay-dee-ooh-my-lay-dee-tee
Will there be any yodeling in heaven
Ooh-lay-dee-dee-dee-dee
And the heavens above
Will they sing the songs we love
While I yodel lay-eee-ooh-my lay-dee-tee
As I climb the golden stairway up yonder
And life's journey on this Earth is o'er
As I cross the Great Divide
Will they welcome me inside
With my yodel lay-eee-ooh-my-lay-eee-tee
Yodel lay-dee-ay-dee-ooh-my-lay-dee-tee
Will there be any yodeling in heaven
Ooh-lay-dee-dee-dee-dee
And the heavens above
Will they sing the songs we love
While I yodel lay-dee-eee-ooh-my lay-dee-tee

All This And Heaven Too
All This And Heaven Too
Composer(s): Eddie DeLange - James Van Heusen
Performer(s): Bob Eberly & Jimmy Dorsey
You give me your lips
And your lips are so heavenly
Stars in the sky are all free
And they shine for me
So does the moon in the blue
All this is mine and heaven too
You give me your arms
And your arms are like angel wings
Sweet to my ear is the song ev'ry bluebird sings
Each rosebud kissed by the dew
All this is mine and heaven too
I own each summer day
Each mountain capped with snow
The sentimental tree, the dreamy streams that flow
Ev'ry country lane and ev'ry street of stone
Are highways of adventure made for me alone
You give me your love
And your love is a melody
Deep in my heart I will carry the song with me
You bring a love so divine
All this is mine and heaven too

Will The Circle Be Unbroken
Will The Circle Be Unbroken
Composer(s): A.P. Carter
Performer(s): The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band;
and various other artists
I was standing by my window
On one cold and cloudy day
When I saw that hearse come rolling
For to carry my mother away
Will the circle be unbroken
By and by, lord, by and by
There’s a better home a-waiting
In the sky, lord, in the sky
I said to that undertaker
Undertaker please drive slow
For this lady you are carrying
Lord, I hate to see here go
Will the circle be unbroken
By and by, lord, by and by
There’s a better home a-waiting
In the sky, lord, in the sky
Oh, I followed close behind her
Tried to hold up and be brave
But I could not hide my sorrow
When they laid her in the grave
Will the circle be unbroken
By and by, lord, by and by
There’s a better home a-waiting
In the sky, lord, in the sky
I went back home, my home was lonesome
Missed my mother, she was gone
All of my brothers, sisters crying
What a home so sad and lone
Will the circle be unbroken
By and by, lord, by and by
There’s a better home a-waiting
In the sky, lord, in the sky
We sang the songs of childhood
Hymns of faith that made us strong
Ones that mother maybelle taught us
Hear the angels sing along
Will the circle be unbroken
By and by, lord, by and by
There’s a better home a-waiting
In the sky, lord, in the sky
Will the circle be unbroken
By and by, lord, by and by
There’s a better home a-waiting
In the sky, lord, in the sky

All Things Must Pass
All Things Must Pass
Composer(s): George Harrison
First release by: George Harrison - 1970
Covered by multiple other artists
Sunrise doesn't last all morning
A cloudburst doesn't last all day
Seems my love is up
And has left you with no warning
But it's not always going to be this grey
All things must pass
All things must pass away
Sunset doesn't last all evening
A mind can blow those clouds away
After all this my love is up
And must be leaving
It has not always been this grey
All things must pass
All things must pass away
All things must pass
None of life's strings can last
So I must be on my way
And face another day
Now the darkness only stays at night-time
In the morning it will fade away
Daylight is good
At arriving at the right time
It's not always going to be this grey
All things must pass
All things must pass away
All things must pass
All things must pass away

Will The Angels Play Their Harps For Me?
Will The Angels Play Their Harps For Me?
Composer(s): D. White; Hirsch
Performer(s): Josef Locke
I was passing by the churchyard in the city
and I saw a beggar old and grey
With his hands outstretched he asked the folks for pity
and it made me sad to hear him say
Oh I wonder, yes I wonder, will the angels way up yonder
will the angels play their harps for me?
For my heart is growing dreary and my feet are growing weary
Will the angels play their haprs for me?
Oh a million miles I've travelled, and a million sights I've seen
and I'm ready for the glory soon to be
Oh I wonder, yes I wonder, will the angels way up yonder
will the angels play their harps for me?
Oh I wonder, yes I wonder, will the angels way up yonder
will the angels play their harps for me?
Oh my heart is growing dreary, and my feet are growing weary
will the angels play their harps for me?
Oh a million miles I've travelled, and a million sights I've seen
and I'm ready for the glory soon to be
Oh I wonder yes, I wonder, will the angels way up yonder
will the angels play their harps for me?
Will the angels play their harps for me?

All The Young Punks (New Boots And Contracts)
All The Young Punks (New Boots And Contracts)
Composer(s): Strummer - Jones
Performer(s): The Clash
Hanging about
down the market street
I spent a lot of time on my feet
When I saw some passing yabbos
We did chance to speak
I knew how to sing
y' know an
They knew how to pose
An' one of them had a Les Paul
Heart attack machine
All the young punks
Laugh your life
Cos there ain't much to cry for
All the young cunts
Live it now
Cos there ain't much to die for
Everybody wants to bum
A ride on the rock 'n' roller coaster
And we went out
Got our name in small print on the poster
Of course we got a manger
Though he ain't the mafia
A contract is a contract
When they get 'em out on yer
You gotta drag yourself to work
Drag yourself to sleep
You're dead from the neck up
By the middle of the week
Face front you got the future shining
Like a piece of gold
But I swear as we get closer
It look more like a lump of coal
But it's better than some factory
Now that's no place to waste your youth
I worked there for a week once
I luckily got the boot

Will The Angels Let Me Play
Will The Angels Let Me Play
Composer(s): Fred E. Gladdish; W.L. Werden
Performer(s): George Morgan
In the yard where children
Were playing games one day
A little boy on crutches
Was watching wistfully*
It seemed so hard he couldn't play
Like other children do
They said that he would spoil their games
And was a baby too
When I go to heaven momma
Will the angels let me play
Because I'm just a cripple
Will they say I'm in the way
Here the children never want me
I'm a bother they all say
When I go to heaven mommy
Will the angels let me play
Now this little fellows heart was breaking in two
Just because the rest of the kids
Wouldn't let him play
And as he hobbled to his mom on his crutches
With his eyes full of tears
She heard her little cripple boy say
Gosh mommy I'm so awfully tired
And then he bowed his little head
Won't you rock me just a little bit mom
Before I have to go to bed
And gee how I wish daddy would come home
Before I go to sleep
Will you tell him how I waited and waited
For so long mom
For his kiss on my little cheek
And then that night
When all was still and silent
A band of angels came that way
And they took this little fellow up to heaven
Where he'll never never have to say
Mom when I go up to heaven
Won't the angels let me play
Or maybe because I'm just a kid on crutches
They'll say I'm in the way
You know Mom here the rest kids never want me
I'm a bother they all say
So when I go up to heaven mom
Don't you think that maybe
Just maybe
The angels will let me play
When I go to heaven momma
Will the angels let me play

Will Love Ever Come My Way
Will Love Ever Come My Way
Composer(s): Dion DiMucci; Wes Farrell
Performer(s): Dion; The Mystics
It seems the whole world wants to turn their backs on me
Can't seem to find someone to give a little love to me
(La la la la la la ooo)
Wonderin' just what to do, wonderin' just where to go
Waiting here all alone, waiting for love to show
Will love ever ever come my way?
Looking for someone's love, looking so hard I cry
Wanting someone to care, wanting as time goes by
Will love ever ever come my way?
I'm just like a lonely drifter, I'm goin' on my way
Hoping that I will find love someday, some way
Dreaming of love & fun, dreaming the long nights through
Wishing on stars above, wishing sounds sad but true
Will love ever ever come my way?
(La la la la la la ooo)

All The World Will Be Jealous Of Me
All The World Will Be Jealous Of Me
Composer(s): Al Dubin - Ernest R. Ball
I was jealous and hurt
When your lips kissed a rose
Or your eyes from my own chanced to stray
I have tried all in vain
Many times to propose
Now at last I've found courage to say
Let's suppose that the lips I found kissing a rose
Were to tell me to look in your eyes
if I'd find there a light that for me only glows
More and more would my heart realize
The roses all envy the bloom on your cheek
And the sun even envies your smile
The birds in the wildwood are stilled when you speak
Their songs don't seem half worth the while
The light in your eyes makes the bright stars grow pale
They're jealous as jealous can be
But when one word or sign tells them all you are mine
All the world will be jealous of me!
