Think Twice
Think Twice
Composer(s): Joe Shapiro - Jimmy Williams - Clyde Otis
Performer(s): Brook Benton
Think twice before you answer
Think twice before you say 'Yes'
I'm asking you if you love me true
'Cause you're my happiness
Take your time, think it over
Think twice, then let me know
If you don't feel that your love is real
Tell me, although you'll hurt me so
Funny how a word can mean everything
That's why I want you to talk to me
To hear you say my name I'd give anything
Only you can decide what my future will be
Think twice before you answer
Think twice, whatever you do
A love as strong as mine can stand the test of time
Think twice of the one who loves you

Think Too Much
Think Too Much
Performer(s): Paul Simon
They say that the left side of the brain
Controls the right
They say that the right side
Has to work hard all night
Maybe I think too much for my own good
Some people say so
Other people say no no
The fact is
You don't think as much as you could
hmmm
I had a childhood that was mercifully brief
I grew up in a state of disbelief
I started to think too much
When I was twelve going on thirteen
Me and the girls from St. Augustine
Up in the mezzanine
Thinking about God
Maybe I think too much
Maybe I think too much
Maybe I think too much
Maybe I think too much
Have you ever experienced a period of grace
When your brain just takes a seat behind your face
And the world begins The Elephant Dance
Everything's funny
Everyone's sunny
You take out your money
And walk down the road
That leads me to the girl I love
The girl I'm always thinking of
But maybe I think too much
And I ought to just hold her
Stop trying to mold her
Maybe blindfold her
And take her away
Maybe I think too much
Maybe I think too much
Maybe I think too much
Maybe I think too much

Think Of The Good Times
Think Of The Good Times
Composer(s): Wes Farrell - Roy Alfred
Performer(s): Jay & the Americans
You were the only one I could see
Now that we're through, if you think of me
Think of the good times, only the good times
Walks in the rain, warm summer nights
Remember the kisses and not just the fights
One foolish moment drove us apart
If there's a spark still left in your heart
Think of the good times, only the good times
You in my arms, two hearts like one
Don't tell me that it is over and done
Once we promised we'd love forever (way back then)
Can't we let these wonderful memories bring us together again
If you'll admit you think of me yet
Darlin' come back, forgive and forget
Think of the good times, we'll only have good times
Your lips on mine (where they belong)
Where they belong
But this time we won't let our good times go wrong
We'll think of the good times, only the good times
Yeah, we'll think of the good times, only the good times
Oh, we'll think of the good times, only the good times

Think Of Me Thinking Of You
Think Of Me Thinking Of You
Performer(s): Leon Redbone
When all your joys, like broken toys, lie at your feet
And you have learned that life is just a game
When you confess that happiness is bittersweet
Remember me - I still will be the same
When your day has passed away
And skies are grey, sweetheart
Think of me thinking of you
Remember, too, that only you
Can keep us two apart
Think of me thinking of you
My future lies within your eyes
Where love lights used to shine
I'd give my all to hear the call
That tells me you are mine
And if it's true that someone new
Is calling you, sweetheart
Think of me thinking of you

Think Of Laura
Think Of Laura
Composer(s): Christopher Cross - Rob Meurer
Performer(s): Christopher Cross
Every once in a while I'd see her smile
And she'd turn my day around
A girl with those eyes could stare through the lies
And see what your heart was saying
Think of Laura but laugh don't cry
I know she'd want it that way
When you think of Laura laugh don't cry
I know she'd want it that way
A friend of a friend, a friend till the end
That's the kind of girl she was
Taken away so young
Taken away without a warning
I know you and you're here
In everyday we live
I know her and she's here
I can feel her when I sing
Hey Laura, where are you now
Are you far away from here
I don't think so
I think you're here
Taking our tears away
Think of Laura but laugh don't cry
I know she'd want it that way
When you think of Laura laugh don't cry
I know she'd want it that way

Think It Over
Think It Over
((French Version: Fais-Toi Nonne (Paul Personne) - 1998))
Composer(s): Buddy Holly - Norman Petty - Jerry Allison
First release by: The Crickets - 1958
Covered by multiple other artists
Think it over, what you've just said
Think it over in your pretty little head
Are you sure think I'm not the one
is your love real or only fun?
Think it over
Yes, think it over
A lonely heart grows cold and old
Think it over and let me know
Think it over, but don't be slow
Just remember all birds and bees
Go by two thro' life's mysteries
Think it over
Yes, think it over
A lonely heart grows cold and old
Think it over, an think of me
Think it over and you will see
Happy days when you and I
Think as one and kiss the blues goodbye
Think it over
Yes, think it over
A lonely heart grows cold and old
Think it over, over and over
Think it over, over and over

Think I'm In Love ((aka I Think I'm In Love (And I Can't Get Up) (Sinkhole) - 1994))
Composer(s): Randall Oda - Eddie Money
First release by: Eddie Money - 1982
Ooh, something's got a hold of me now
It's a feeling, burnin' up like I'm on fire
Hold me tight babe, don't leave me by myself tonight
'Cause I don't think I can make it through the night
I think I'm in love
And my life's lookin' up
I think I'm in love
'Cause I can't get enough
I think I'm in love
It's gotta be love
It surrounds me, ooh, like a sea of madness
It controls me, makes me do all the things I do for you
On my mind babe, thinkin' about you now
And I don't know if I'll make it through the night
I think I'm in love
And my life's lookin' up
I think I'm in love
'Cause I can't get enough
I think I'm in love
It's gotta be love
I think I'm in love and love's enough
I think I'm in love
And my life's lookin' up
I think I'm in love
'Cause I can't get enough
I think I'm in love
It's gotta be love
Baby help me do it
There must be something to it
I know it's gotta be love

Think I'll Go Somewhere And Cry Myself To Sleep
Think I'll Go Somewhere And Cry Myself To Sleep
Composer(s): Bill Anderson
First release by: Bill Anderson - 1966
Covered by multiple other artists
Think I'll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep
I just kissed the one I love for the last time
And never have her soft lips been so sweet
She's gone away and won't be back forever
Think I'll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep
I'll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep
Not because I'm sad-because I'm weak
I can't stand the thought of life alone without her
Think I'll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep
Just before she said "goodbye" she called me "darling"
And slowly ran her fingers down my cheek
I thought I'd die when she said she still loved me
Think I'll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep
I'll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep
Not because I'm sad-because I'm weak
I can't stand the thought of life alone without her
Think I'll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep

Think About Love
Think About Love
Composer(s): Michel LeGrand - Alan Bergman - Marilyn Bergman
Performer(s): Patti Austin & James Ingram
Love is only the beginning
What a sweet beginning
Sunny skies ahead, like the weatherman said
Did it ever feel this good before?
Could you get much more from a kiss?
Here with you, it's easy to think about love
You think about me (you think about me)
I'll think about you (I'll think about you)
And all of the crazy things that we can do
I know what waits for us after we've wined and dined
The train's got two tracks, but I've got a one-track mind
Love me like it's for the first time
And then imagine it's the last time
Only you and me, like we dreamed it would be
Soon the early morning sun will rise
But we'll close our eyes to it all
Then day or night, dark or light, we'll think about love
You think about me (you think about me)
I'll think about you (I'll think about you)
And all of the crazy things that we can do
I know what waits for us after we've wined and dined
The train's got two tracks, but I've got a one-track mind
So it's goodbye, Loneliness
We're leaving you and your kind behind
We're starting out, we're on our way
Saying with loving all there is to say
You think about me (you think about me)
I'll think about you (I'll think about you)
And all of the crazy things that we can do
I know what waits for us after we've wined and dined
The train's got two tracks, but I've got a one-track mind

Think About It Darlin'
Think About It Darlin'
Composer(s): Jerry Foster - Bill Rice
Performer(s): Jerry Lee Lewis
Search the corners of your precious heart
And if you find something there
And there's anyway to call it love
Then we still got a prayer
I've got more love for you sweetheart
Than you'll ever find again
So before you close that door on me
Think about it Darlin'
Think about it Darlin'
Give yourself a little time
Consider all you mean to me
And you might change your mind
I haven't been the kind of man
You wanted me to be
But if you'll stay darlin' I'll try to change
Don't give up on Jerry Lee
Lord, things were good between us once
I know they could be again
And there's nothing good about goodbye
So think about it Darlin'
(There's nothing good about goodbye)
Think about it Darlin', think about it

Think (The "5" Royales)
Think
Composer(s): Lowman Pauling
First release by: The "5" Royales - 1957
Covered by multiple other artists
Think, think, think, think
Think of about the sacrifices
That I make for you
Think of all the time
That I spend with you
Think of all the good things
That I done for you
Think of all the bad things
I try not to do
So come on, baby, and
Think, think, think, think
About the good things
Think, think, think, think
About the right things
Think, think, think, think
About the best things
And maybe before you leave me
You'll realize I'm the one
That loves you
How much of all your happiness
Have I really claimed
How many tears have you cried
For which I was to blame
Lord, I can't remember
When it's not my fault
I tried so hard to please you
At least that's what I thought
So come on, sugar, and
Think, think, think, think
About the good things
Think, think, think, think
About the right things
Think, think, think, think
About the best things
And maybe before you leave me
You'll realize I'm the one
That loves you

People walking around everyday, playing games that they can score
Trying to make other people lose their minds, be careful you don't lose yours
Yeah think (think) think about what you're trying to do to me
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (think, think), let your mind go, let yourself be free
You need me (need me) and I need you (don't you know)

Yeah yeah, think about me (what you're trying to do to me)
'Till the fall of the night, think about it right now
Oh freedom (freedom), freedom (freedom), freedom, yeah freedom
Freedom (freedom), freedom (freedom), freedom, freedom
Hey, you, think about it
There ain't nothing you could ask I could answer you but I won't (I won't)
I was gonna change, but I'm not, if you keep doing things I don't

(Think about - ah me, think about - ah me, think about - ah me, think about it)
You had better stop and think before you think
Think!

Things We Said Today
Things We Said Today
((French Version: Ces Mots Qu’on Oublie Un Jour (Dick Rivers) - 1964))
Composer(s): John Lennon - Paul McCartney
First release by: The Beatles - 1964
Covered by multiple other artists
You say you will love me
If I have to go
You'll be thinking of me
Somehow I will know
Someday when I'm lonely
Wishing you weren't so far away
Then I will remember
The things we said today
You say you'll be mine, girl
Until the end of time
These days such a kind girl
Seems so hard to find
Someday when we're dreaming
Deep in love, not a lot to say
Then we will remember
The things we said today
Me, I'm just the lucky kind
Love to hear you say that love is luck
And, though we may be blind
Love is here to stay
And that's enough
To make you mine, girl
Be the only one
Love me all the time, girl
We'll go on and on
Someday when we're dreaming
Deep in love, not a lot to say
Then we will remember
The things we said today
Love me all the time, girl
We'll go on and on
Someday when we're dreaming
Deep in love, not a lot to say
Then we will remember
The things we said today

Ces Mots Qu’on Oublie Un Jour
Ces Mots Qu’on Oublie Un Jour
((Adapted from: Things We Said Today (The Beatles) - 1964))
Composer(s): John Lennon - Paul McCartney - Dick Rivers - Mya Simille
Performer(s): Dick Rivers - 1964
Tu dis que tu m'aimes
Que tu m'attendras
Tu as de la peine
Je pars loin de toi
Tu dis que l'absence
Rendra plus fort encore notre amour
On dit ces mots-là, oui
Qu'on oublie un jour
Pourquoi me promettre
Ta fidélité?
Pourquoi me permettre
En vain d'espérer?
Garde le silence!
Plus tard mon cœur sera bien moins lourd
Car on dit des mots, oui
Qu'on oublie un jour
Pourtant, je voudrais comme toi
Garder l'espoir qu'à mon retour
Tout sera comme autrefois
Que je retrouverai ton amour
Hein, hein, hein, hein
Malgré tes promesses
J'ai peur loin de toi
De tant de jeunesse
De tant d'heures sans moi
Dans ton innocence
Tu jures d'attendre mon retour
On dit ces mots-là, oui
Qu'on oublie un jour
Pourtant, je voudrais comme toi
Garder l'espoir qu'à mon retour
Tout sera comme autrefois
Que je retrouverai ton amour
Hein, hein, hein, hein
Tu dis que tu m'aimes
Que tu m'attendras
Tu as de la peine
Je pars loin de toi
Tu dis que l'absence
Rendra plus fort encore notre amour
On dit ces mots-là, oui
Qu'on oublie un jour

Things To Do In Denver When You're Dead
Things To Do In Denver When You're Dead
Performer(s): Warren Zevon
I called up my friend LeRoy on the phone
I said, Buddy, I'm afraid to be alone
I got some weird ideas in my head
About things to do in Denver when you're dead
I was working on a steak the other day
I saw Waddy in the Rattlesnake Cafe
Dressed in black, tossing back a shot of rye
Finding things to do in Denver when you die
You won't need a cab to find a priest
Maybe you should find a place to stay
Some place where they never change the sheets
And you just roll around Denver all day
LeRoy says there's something you should know
Not everybody has a place to go
And home is just a place to hang your head
And dream up things to do in Denver when you're dead
You won't need a cap to find a priest
Maybe you should find a place to stay
Some place where they never change the sheets
And you jut roll around Denver all day
You just roll around Denver all day

Things In Life
Things In Life
Composer(s): Don Stover
Performer(s): Don Stover
and multiple other artists
Look up, look down this lonesome road
Hang down your head and cry
For we often lose some things in life
That makes us wonder why
Oh the fairest love I ever had
Now sleeps beneath the clay
I live in hopes and dreams of her
That we'll meet again someday
I often sit and wonder why
Life has to be this way
But after all is said and done
I'm sure God has his say
I'd like to be a small part of life
With some few things to achieve
Just to know I've been a fruitless cause
Would give my poor heart grief
Now when they lower my casket down
In some lonesome grave to rest
And you take your last look at my face
You can say I done my best

Things I'd Like To Say
Things I'd Like To Say
Performer(s): New Colony Six
Baby is he looking after you
Is he showing you the same love
The warm love just like we knew
Baby, baby, it's you I'm thinking of
In the morning when I wake up
In the evening, it's you that I dream of
Sometimes love hurts and sometimes love's unkind
And sometimes you might feel blue
But remember now darlin
If his words are real
This will never, never happen to you
Baby, baby these things I'd like to say
I was hoping that with our love
We would get married some day

Things I Should Have Said
Things I Should Have Said
Composer(s): P.F. Sloan - Steve Barri
Performer(s): The Grass Roots
I didn't cry
I just stood and watched her say goodbye
She closed the do-or
And said "I don't want to see you anymore"
Things I should have said to her
That maybe would have changed her mind to stay
Things I should have said to her
Like "girl, I love you so let love find a way"
Was it that she
Just couldn't understand a man like me
Was I to blame
Did I leave too many things unexplained?
Things I should have said to her
That maybe would have changed her mind to stay
Things I should have said to her
Like "girl, I love you so let love find a way
Why didn't I try telling her
She was all I had
Why didn't I try telling her
Now she's gone and I feel oh so bad
I didn't cry
I just stood and watched her say goodbye
She closed the do-or
And said "I don't want to see you anymore"
Things I should have said to her (repeat)...
