letra de Night Song
Summer

Not a bit of breeze

Neon signs are shining

Through the tired trees

Lovers

Walking to and fro

Every one has someon

And a place to go

Now listen

Hear the clouds go past

They don't even see me

Flying by so fast

Moving

Going who knows where

Only thing I know is

I'm not going there

Where do you go

When you feel that your brain is on fire?

Where do you go

When you don't even know what it is you desire

Listen

Laughter everywhere

Hear it

Life is in the air

And night comes

And the town awakes

Sound of children calling

And the squeal of brakes

Music

By the lonely sung

When you can't help wondering

Where do I belong?

letra de The Laziest Gal In Town
It's not 'cause I wouldn't,

It's not 'cause I shouldn't,

And, you know though well, it's not 'cause I couldn't,

It's simply because I'm the laziest gal in town.

My poor heart is achin'

To bring home the bacon,

And if I find myself alone and forsaken,

It's simply because I'm the laziest gal in town.

Though I'm more than willing to learn

How these gals get so much extra money to burn,

Every little proposition I just turn it down,

'Way down,

It's not 'cause I wouldn't,

It's not 'cause I shouldn't, honey,

And, you know, that it's not 'cause I couldn't,

It's simply because I'm the laziest, laziest gal in town.
Something WonderfulVer letra 2:46

letra de Something Wonderful
This is a man who thinks with his heart

His heart is not always wise

This is a man who stumbles and falls

But this is a man who tries

This is a man you'll forgive and forgive

And help and protect as long as you live

He will not always say

What you would have him say

But now and then he'll say something wonderful

The thoughtless things he'll do

Will hurt and worry you

Then all at once he'll do something wonderful

He has a thousand dreams that won't come true

You know that he believes in them

And that's enough for you

You'll always go along with

Defend him when he's wrong

And tell him when he's strong

He is wonderful

He'll always need your love

And so you'll get your love

'Cause a man who needs your love

Can be wonderful

letra de Nobody
When life seems full of clouds and rain

I am filled with an awkward pain

Who soothes my achin', thumpin' brain?

- Nobody

When winter comes with snow and sleet

I'm so tired with cold feet

Who says: "Here's two bits Nina honey, go and eat?"

- Nobody

I ain't never done nothin' to nobody

I ain't never got nothin' from nobody, no time

And until I get me somethin', yes, from somebody, sometime

Well, I don't intend to do nothin'

For no body, no time

Now when winter comes all cool and clear

My friends they see me comin' near

Who says: "Come on in child and have a beer?"

- Nobody

When all day long things go amiss

I go home to find some bliss

Who hands to me a glowing kiss?

- Nobody

I ain't never done nothin' to nobody

I ain't never got nothin' from no body - no time

And until I get me somethin', from somebody, sometime

I don't intend to do nothin'

For no body, nobody, no time, no time, no body, no time!
I Am BlessedVer letra 2:57

letra de I Am Blessed
I who never had much I now have a treasure

A love too great to measure

I am blessed with happiness

And I'm done with loneliness

I who walked all alone

Not really knowing

Till now just where I was going

I am blessed because this day

You came show me the way

Till now I was like a grain of sand

Lost on a lonely beach

Yes till now I could never understand

That this was within my reach

I who cried to the moon see only sunshine

Because darling you're mine

I am blessed with wealth untold

A love worth more than gold
Of This I'm Sure 2:37

letra de See-Line Woman
Yeah

Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Alright ye

See-line woman

She drink coffee

She drink tea

And then go home

See-line woman

See-line woman

Dressed in green

Wears silk stockings

With golden seams

See-line woman

See-line woman

Dressed in red

Make a man lose his head

See-line woman

See-line woman

Black dress on

For a thousand dollars

She wail and she moan

See-line woman

Wiggle wiggle

Turn like a cat

Wink at a man

And he wink back

Now child

See-line woman

Empty his pockets

And wreck his days

Make him love her

And she'll fly away

See-line woman

Take it on out now

Empty his pockets

And she wreck his days

And she make him love her

Then she sure fly away

She got a black dress on

For a thousand dollars

She wail and she moan...

letra de Our Love (Will See Us Through)
Anytime things go wrong

Baby we'll still get along

Cos we have each other

And our love will se us through

If some tears come our way

The sun skips a day

We still have each other

And our love will se us through

Just as long as you and I

Have a little tender kiss to share

There's no doubt at all that we'll get by

Grey skies will all turn bare

So when some clouds bring the rain

We've no cause to complain

Cos we have each other

And our love will se us through

Cos we have each other

And our love will se us through
How Can I? 2:05
The Last Rose Of SummerVer letra 3:08

[X]
letra de The Last Rose Of Summer
'Tis the last rose of summer

Left blooming all alone

All her lovely companions

Are faded and gone

No flower of her kindred

No rose bud is nigh

To reflect back her blushes

Or give sigh for sigh

So soon may I follow

When friendships decay

And from love's shining circle

The gems drop away

When true hearts lie withered

And fond ones are flown

Oh! who would inhabit

This bleak world alone
