The First Time I Saw You


The First Time I Saw You
Composer(s): Nat Shilkret - Allie Wrubel
Performer(s): Frances Farmer
and multiple other artists



Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah (In Gracie's unique soprano)

The first time I saw you
I knew at a glance
I was meant to be yours, yours alone

When I look in your eyes
I am thrilled to the skies
And I feel like a queen (king) on a throne

The first time I saw you
I knew at a glance
I was meant to be yours, yours alone

My heart was fancy free
One love meant nothing to me
Until one grand and glorious night
You chanced to come my way
You turned that night into day
It must have been love at first sight

The first time I saw you
I knew at a glance
I was meant, meant to be yours, yours alone

As I stood before you
My heart seemed to dance
And I prayed you would call, call me your own

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah (In Gracie's unique soprano)

The first time I saw you
I knew at a glance
I was meant to be yours, yours alone

Caught In The Balance


Caught In The Balance Composer(s): Bobby Kimball - Steve Lukather - Stan Lynch - David Paich - Simon Phillips - Mike Porcaro Performer(s): Toto



What happened to me
Oh it seems so long ago
The cuts run deep
But the scars still show

I live in the shadows
Where it’s been so hard to grow
I’m still a servant in a nobleman’s robes

You know my weakness girl you know my kind
You helped me see when I was blind

It’s a crime to live my life without you
Serve out my years in darkness
Inside these walls I die without you
And when I close my eyes
I’m caught in the balance

Afraid of the hurricane
I hide in my domain
I need release from all this pain
Please don’t forsake me
In these ruins of your home
I can’t wait forever
Don’t leave me alone

I have a secret if you want to learn
I will surrender in return

It’s a crime to live my life without you
Serve out my years in darkness
Inside these walls I die without you
And when I close my eyes
I’m caught in the balance

You know my weakness girl you know my kind
You helped me see when I was blind

It’s a crime to live my life without you
Serve out my years in darkness
Inside these walls I die without you
And when I close my eyes
I’m caught in the balance

It’s a crime to live my life without you
Serve out my years in darkness
Inside these walls I die without you
And when I close my eyes
I’m caught in the balance

Foolish Heart


Foolish Heart
Composer(s): Steve Perry; Randy Goodrum
Performer(s): Steve Perry;
and various other artists



I need a love that grows
I don't want it unless I know
With each passin' hour
Someone, somehow
Will be there, ready to share

I need a love that's strong
I'm so tired of being alone
But will my lonely heart
Play the part
Of the fool again, before I begin

Foolish heart, hear me calling
Stop before you start falling
Foolish heart, heed my warning
You've been wrong before
Don't be wrong anymore

Feelin' that feelin' again
Playin' a game I can't win
Love's knockin' on the door
Of my heart once more
Think I'll let her in
Before I begin

Foolish heart, hear me calling
Stop before, you start falling
Foolish heart, heed my warning
You've been wrong before
Don't be wrong anymore
Foolish heart
Foolish, foolish heart
You've been wrong before

Foolish heart, hear me calling
Stop before you start falling
Foolish heart, heed my warning
You've been wrong before
Don't be wrong anymore
Foolish heart

Oh foolish foolish heart
You've been wrong before

Foolish foolish heart
Foolish heart

The First Time
Composer(s): Chris Andrews
Performer(s): Adam Faith



Every time that we meet (Ooh-ooh-aah)
She looks my way (Ooh-ooh-aah)
Then she's off down the street (Ooh-ooh)
But I want her to stay

(Is it love) I don't know
(That you feel) I don't know
(Is it love) I don't know
(Is it real) I don't know-woh-woh
'Cause it's the first time
I've felt this way

Her eyes are so blue (Ooh-ooh-aah)
And oh how they shine (Ooh-ooh-aah)
What can I do (Ooh-ooh)
To make this girl mine

(Is it love) I don't know
(That you feel) I don't know
(Is it love) I don't know
(Is it real) I don't know-woh-woh
'Cause it's the first time
I've felt this way

In all my dreams
This girl appears
And says sweet words to me
If dreams come true
Like some folks' do
Then what will the answer be

But when will I know (Ooh-ooh-aah)
How long must I wait (Ooh-ooh-aah)
When will it show (Ooh-ooh)
What is my fate

(Is it love) I don't know
(That you feel) I don't know
(Is it love) I don't know
(Is it real) I don't know-woh-woh
'Cause it's the first time
I've felt this way

'Cause it's the first time
I've felt this way

Caught In A Dream Composer(s): Michael Bruce First release by: Alice Cooper - 1971 Covered by multiple other artists



Well I'm runnin' through the world
with a gun in my back
tryin' to catch a ride in a Cadillac
Thought that I was livin'

been tryin' to get away
from that success smell

I need a butler and a trip to Spain

So What!
You don't know what I'm goin' through

turned out to be hell

Whoo-o-oh
When you see me with a smile on my face
Whoo-o-oh
Then you'll know I'm a mental case
Whoo-o-oh oh
Whoo-o-oh oh
Whoo-o-oh

I'm caught in a dream
So what!
I don't know what I'm going through
I'm right in between
So I'll

The Garden Of Roses


The Garden Of Roses
Composer(s): J.E. Dempsey - Johann C. Schmid



Come into the garden of roses, dear
And stand where the sunbeams fall
The roses that bloom in the garden, dear
Must wither and fade someday

But perfume arises like incense pure
To one who is fairer than all!
Time only adds to the rose of love
A charm that can never decay

Beautiful garden of roses
Kiss'd by the golden dew
Each pretty flower discloses
Virtues I find in you

White means your soul so pure, dear
Red is your love most true
You are my garden of beautiful roses
My own rose
My one rose, that's you
That's you

Cats Under The Stars


Cats Under The Stars Composer(s): Jerry Garcia - Robert Hunter Performer(s): Jerry Garcia Band; Pickin' On; Melvin Seals



Cats on the blacktop, birdie in the treetop
Someone plays guitar that sounds like cla-vi-nette
I ain't ready yet, to go to bed
Think I'll take a walk downtown instead

Cats on the bandstand
Give'em each a big hand
Anyone who sweats like that must be all right
No one wants to fight; no blackeye
Just another cat beneath the stars tonight

Cats in the limelight, feels like it's alright
Everybody wants something they might not get
I ain' ready yet, it ain't complete
That's why I am headin' down to Alleycat Street

Sa-tin blouse unbuttoning
Sa-tin blouse unbuttoning
Time is a stripper doin' it just for you
Time is a stripper doin' it just for you

Just for you
Just For You

Knock in the brass tacks, cover up your tracks Jack
You ain't nowhere till you can pay your own way back
What else do you lack to make it right
But cats down under the stars tonight

Fooled Around And Fell In Love


Fooled Around And Fell In Love
Composer(s): Elvin Bishop
Performer(s): Elvin Bishop;
and various other artists



I must have been through about a million girls
I'd love 'em then I'd leave 'em alone
I didn't care how much they cried, no sir
Their tears left me cold as a stone

But then I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love, yes I did
I fooled around and fell in love, I fooled around and fell in love

It used to be when I'd see a girl that I liked
I'd get out my book and write down her name
But when the grass got a little greener over on the other side
I'd just tear out that page

I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love, since I met you baby
I fooled around and fell in love, I fooled around and fell in love

Free, on my own is the way I used to be
Ah, but since I met you baby, love's got a hold on me
It's got a hold on me now, I can't let go of you baby

I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love, oh yes I did
I fooled around, fooled around, fooled around, fooled around,
fooled around, fooled around, fell in love
Fooled around, fooled around, fooled around, fooled around,
fooled around, fooled around, fell in love
I fooled around, fell in love
I fell in love, I fell in love, yes I did

The First Thing You Know


The First Thing You Know
Composer(s): Alan Jay Lerner - André Previn
Performer(s): Lee Marvin



God made the mountains
God made the sky
God made the people
God knows why

He fixed up the planet
As best as He could
Then in come the people
And gum it up good

The first thing you know

They civilized the foothills
And everywhere He put hills
The mountains and valley below

They come along and take 'em
And civilize and make 'em
A place where no civilized
Person would go

The first thing you know
The first thing you know

They civilize what's pretty
By puttin' up a city
Where nothin' that's
Pretty can grow

They muddy up the winter
And civilize it into
A place too uncivilized
Even for snow

The first thing you know

They civilize left
They civilize right
Till nothing is left
Till nothing is right

They civilize freedom
Till no one is free
No one except
By coincidence, me

The first thing you know

The boozer's in prison
And the criminally isn't
And only the rascals have dough

When I see a parson
I gotta put my arse in
A wagon that follows the tail of a crow

The first thing you know
I pick up a blow!
The first thing you know

Cat's In The Cradle


Cat's In The Cradle Composer(s): Sandy Chapin - Harry Chapin First release by: Harry Chapin - 1974 Covered by multiple other artists



My child arrived just the other day He came to the world in the usual way But there were planes to catch, and bills to pay He learned to walk while I was away And he was talking 'fore I knew it, and as he grew He'd say, "I'm gonna be like you, dad You know I'm gonna be like you" And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon Little boy blue and the man in the moon "When you coming home, dad?" "I don't know when But we'll get together then You know we'll have a good time then" My son turned ten just the other day He said, "Thanks for the ball, dad, come on let's play Can you teach me to throw?" I said, "Not today I got a lot to do" He said, "That's ok" And he walked away, but his smile never dimmmed Said, "I'm gonna be like him, yeah You know I'm gonna be like him" And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon Little boy blue and the man in the moon "When you coming home, dad?" "I don't know when But we'll get together then You know we'll have a good time then" Well, he came from college just the other day So much like a man I just had to say "Son, I'm proud of you Can you sit for a while?" He shook his head, and he said with a smile "What I'd really like, dad, is to borrow the car keys See you later Can I have them please?" And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon Little boy blue and the man in the moon "When you coming home, son?" "I don't know when But we'll get together then, dad You know we'll have a good time then" I've long since retired and my son's moved away I called him up just the other day I said, "I'd like to see you if you don't mind" He said, "I'd love to, dad, if I could find the time You see, my new job's a hassle, and the kid's got the flu But it's sure nice talking to you, dad It's been sure nice talking to you" And as I hung up the phone, it occurred to me He'd grown up just like me My boy was just like me And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon Little boy blue and the man in the moon "When you coming home, son?" "I don't know when But we'll get together then, dad You know we'll have a good time then"

Fool, Fool, Fool (The Clovers)


Fool, Fool, Fool
Composer(s): Ahmet Ertegun
Performer(s): The Clovers
and multiple other artists



Fool, fool, fool that I was to fall for you
Fool, fool, fool that I was to fall for you
Oh what a fool I was, to think you could love me too

Well, the first time that I saw you, you looked so doggone sweet
When you walked down the street, I said 'There goes my meat'
(Needless to say, Kay Starr's version didn't have this line)

Fool, fool, fool that I was to fall for you
Oh what a fool I was, to think you could love me too

I can't forget you darlin', though I'm left out in the cold
I guess I still love you, and will always feel the same

Fool, fool, fool that I was to fall for you
Oh what a fool I was, to think you could love me too

The First Hello, The Last Goodbye


The First Hello, The Last Goodbye
Composer(s): Cardew Robinson - Roger Whittaker
Performer(s): Roger Whittaker



They say when you gain a lover
You begin to lose a friend
That the end of the beginning’s
The beginning of the end
They say the moment that you’re born
Is when you start to die
And the first time that we said hello
Began our last goodbye

We know each summer’s coming
Means the winter’s waiting there
And gold would not be precious
If we all had gold to spare
You only know how low is low
The first time that you fly
And the first time that we said hello
Began our last goodbye

If I could live forever
It is certain I would never know
Another single second so sublime
At the moment of our meeting
When our hands first touched in greeting
How I wanted to hold back the hands of time

When they begin the overture
They start to end the show
When you think I’ll never need you
Then I knew that you would go
The sound of all our laughter
Is now echoed in a sigh
And the first time that we said hello
Began our last goodbye

If I could live forever
It’s certain I would never know
Another single second so sublime
At the moment of our meeting
When our hands first touched in greeting
How I wanted to hold back the hands of time, oh yes

When they begin the overture
They start to end the show
When you think I’ll never need you
Then I knew that you would go
The sound of all our laughter
Is now echoed in a sigh
And the first time that we said hello
Began our last goodbye
And the first time that we said hello
Began our last goodbye

Fool To Myself


Fool To Myself
Composer(s): Gerry Marsden
Performer(s): Gerry & The Pacemakers



I've been a fool, yes a fool to myself
To think that you were mine I never thought you'd be so wild
You played around with everyone anytime at all
I thought you were bein' friendly when you took them home to tea
I've been a fool, yes a fool to myself
I've been a fool, yes a fool to myself
When I used to ring you & you said you were ill in bed
I should've realized, yes you were ill but in your head
There's only one thing left for me to say, it's this, my friend
I've been a fool, yes a fool to myself
I've been a fool, yes a fool to myself
Life, I know, is not a dream
A dream of your A T
But must you go & try to make some kind of monkey out of me?
If this life you're livin' suits your temperament & your face
I'm ever tryin' to change it, I will leave you in disgrace
There's only one thing left for me to say, it's this, my friend
I've been a fool, yes a fool to myself
I've been a fool, yes a fool to myself

Performer(s): Lou Preager Orch. And Eileen Orchard



I’ve made a date for the first day of summer
A date when the skies are blue
There’ll be songbirds to meet me
And rosebuds to greet me
When I’m on my way to you

We will meet at the church of St. Mary
When the joy bells begin to chime
What a wonderful day for a wedding
The first day of summer time

What a wonderful day for a wedding
The first day of summer time

Cathy's Clown


Cathy's Clown ((French Version: Le P'tit Clown De Ton Coeur (Johnny Hallyday) - 1960)) Composer(s): Don Everly First release by: The Everly Brothers - 1960 Covered by multiple other artists



Don't want your love anymore
Don't want your kisses that's for sure
I die each time I hear this sound
Here he comes, that's Cathy's clown

I've gotta stand tall
You know a man can't crawl
For when he knows you're tellin' lies
And he lets them pass him by

He's not a man at all
Don't want your love anymore
Don't want your kisses that's for sure
I die each time I hear this sound

Here he comes, that's Cathy's clown
When you see me shed a tear
And you know that it's sincere
Don't you think it's kind of sad

That you're treating me so bad
Or don't you even care
Don't want your love anymore
Don't want your kisses that's for sure

I die each time I hear this sound
Here he comes, that's Cathy's clown
That's Cathy's clown.....

And I've been working all night long
I put my daughter on my knee
And she say, "Daddy what's wrong?"
I put my head on her shoulder
She whisper in my ear so sweet
You know what she says?
She say, "Oo, Daddy, you're a fool to cry
You're a fool to cry
And it makes me wonder why"
You know makes me wonder why
She say, Oo-oo oo Daddy, you're a fool to cry
Even my friends say to me
Sometimes, and make out like I don't understand them
You know what they say?
The say, "Oo, Daddy, you're a fool to cry
You're a fool to cry
And it makes me wonder why"

I got a woman, and she live in a poor part of town
And I go see her sometimes
And we make love so fine
I put her head on my shoulder
She says, "Tell me all your troubles"
You know what she says?
She say "Oo Daddy, you're a fool to cry
You're a fool to cry
And it makes me wonder why,"
You know makes me wonder why
She say, "Oo-oo Daddy, you're a fool to cry"

Even my friends say to me
Sometimes, and make out like I don't understand them
You know what they say?
The say, "Oo, Daddy, you're a fool to cry
You're a fool to cry
And it makes me wonder why"

I'm a fool, baby
I'm a fool, baby
I'm a certified fool
I want to tell ya, gotta tell ya baby
I'm a fool, baby
Certified fool, for ya, mama, come on
I'm a fool
I'm a fool
I'm a fool

First Cut Is The Deepest


First Cut Is The Deepest
Composer(s): Cat Stevens
First release by: P.P. Arnold - 1967
Covered by multiple other artists



I would have given you all of my heart
but there's someone who's torn it apart
and she's taking almost all that I've got
but if you want, I'll try to love again
baby I'll try to love again but I know

The first cut is the deepest, baby I know
The first cut is the deepest
'cause when it comes to being lucky she's cursed
when it comes to lovin' me she's worse
but when it comes to being loved she's first
that's how I know

The first cut is the deepest, baby I know
The first cut is the deepest

I still want you by my side
just to help me dry the tears that I've cried
cause I'm sure gonna give you a try
and if you want, I'll try to love again
but baby, I'll try to love again, but I know

The first cut is the deepest, baby I know
The first cut is the deepest

'Cause when it comes to being lucky she's cursed
when it comes to lovin' me she's worse
but when it comes to being loved she's first
that's how I know

The first cut is the deepest, baby I know
The first cut is the deepest

Cathy


Cathy Composer(s): Sammy Cahn - Jimmy Van Heusen Performer(s): Vic Damone; Shelly Manne; Buddy Rich



If you never met an angel then you must meet Cathy
Cathy's everything you've dreamed an angel ought to be
There's music everytime she sighs
Her smile is every sweet surprise
You simply won't believe your eyes wait and see

Chapel windows when they catch the morning sun that's Cathy
How can merely touching someone's hand seem so divine
You might as well prepare to fall in love with Cathy
Or you'll lose your heart to Cathy just as I lost mine

You might as well prepare to fall in love with Cathy
Or you'll lose your heart to Cathy just as I lost mine
Yes you'll lose your heart to Cathy just as I lost mine
