ANNALEE AND ME WE WERE SO YOUNG IT WAS SO HOT WE SAW THE SEA
ANNALEE AND I WE WERE SO YOUNG SHE HAD TO BATH OR SHE WOULD DIE

The Greatest Love

Ver.1
You lay with me Girl, in fields made of dirt and stone
We touched the heavens, and saw the great unknown
Cho 1
We Understand now, what we’re looking for
The Greatest Love, Nothing less and nothing more
Paint your own portrait; paint it deep and with soul
Don’t give up nothin’ your dreams will make you whole
We understand now, what we’re looking for,
The Greatest Love, nothing less and nothing more
People say that life’s not fair, nobody cares, you’ll never win
But I still care and you still care, we won’t give up we won’t give in
(stop and softly start again)…
Tell me a story, neath the Moon and the Stars as Dreams begin
God, Gold and Glory and the emptiness within..
We understand now, what we’re looking for
The Greatest Love nothing less and nothing More
Oh…The Greatest Love,(retard)…. nothing less… and nothing more…..

Sweet Aphrodite. I need somebody
A woman is crying for someone to love
You, you are the Goddess of love
You you see it all from above
Oh Help me..
Please Aphrodite, send me somebody
I been so lonely for someone to love
There’s nothing that you can’t do
You know I’m counting on you
So help me..
Friends say I’m asking too much
Settle for someone to touch
That love’s an Illusion
But I don’t believe them
Friends say I’m asking too much
Settle for someone to touch
But I don’t believe them
I know you can help me
Sweet Aphrodite. I need somebody
I’ve been so lonely, for someone to love

If Wishes Wuz Fishes

If Wishes Wuz Fishes, and I could turn wrong to right,
Then I’d Wish all the world, was Happy Tonight
I’d wish every sun rising up from the sea,
Shined down on a world that was Joyous and Free
I’d wish that the widowed had their sweethearts again
And the Orphans their Mothers and Fathers and then
I’d wish that all parents were loving and good
And all sickness and suffering be gone, yes I would
If Wishes Wuz Fishes, and I could turn wrong to right,
Then I’d Wish all the world, was Happy Tonight
I’d wish that the morning sun rose up from the sea,
to shine down on a world that was Joyous and Free
I’d wish that the strong really did care for the weak
And the soldiers now fighting were dancing cheek to cheek
That the poor souls who think that only their God is the Best
Knew better by now, reconciling in love, with the rest
Instrumental…
If Wishes Wuz Fishes, and I could turn wrong to right,
Then I’d Wish all the world, was Happy Tonight
I’d wish that the sun that rose up from the sea,
to shine down on a world that was Joyous and Free
I’d wish that we all were as smart as could be
And caring and kind singing in sweetest harmony
I’d wish we all knew from the very first moment of birth
to love and take care of our dear Mother Earth
Yes If Wishes wuz Fishes, if wishes came true
Then I’d live by the sea with our children and you
I Love You, I Love You, God Knows that I do
And if Wishes Wuz Fishes, then You’d Love Me Too
Yes if Wishes Wuz Fishes, then You’d Love Me Too
If Wishes Wuz Fishes, and I could turn wrong to right,
Yes I’d Wish all the world, was Happy Tonight…

A Hand to Hold
06:03

When we are young, and not yet bold
We all need a hand to hold
A gentle squeeze, a tender touch
A hand to hold, it means so much…
A hand to hold a hand to hold
More than worth its weight in gold
Never too young, never too old,
We all need a hand to hold
When we’ve grown up and are prepared
To make our lives a thing we share
To comfort when the world is cold
We give in love, a hand to hold
A hand to hold a hand to hold
More than worth its weight in gold
Never too young, never too old,
We all need a hand to hold
Instrumental…..Chorus Organ?
When we’ve grown weak, when we’ve grown old
We all need a hand to hold
Stepping into, eternity, We Pray.. Dear God,
Please… be there for me…
A hand to hold a hand to hold
More than worth its weight in gold
We’re never too young, never too old,
We all need.. a hand to hold…
We all need…..a hand to hold…..

MORNING COMES DOWN VERY HEAVY ON ME
NOTHING AT ALL LIKE A NEW DAY SHOULD BE
THIS MORNING SAVES IT’S GLORY
FOR SOMEONE IN ANOTHER STORY
SOMEWHERE A SONG WHERE MY LOVER HAS GONE
THERE’S NO GLAD SURPRISE FOR THESE SAD EYES TO SEE
NO TRACE OF THE GRACE THAT HER FACE HAD FOR ME
THESE GREY SKIES HAVE NO RAINBOWS
CAUSE RAINBOWS ARE WHERE EVER SHE GOES
SOMEWHERE A SONG WHERE MY LOVER HAS GONE
WHERE MY LOVER HAS GONE
Release
SOMEWHERE THE SUN IS SHINING GOOD OLD TIME SILVER LINING
MORNING COMES DOWN VERY HEAVY ON ME
NOTHING AT ALL LIKE A NEW DAY SHOULD BE
THIS MORNING SAVES IT’S GLORY
FOR SOMEONE IN ANOTHER STORY
SOMEWHERE A SONG WHERE MY LOVER HAS GONE
WHERE MY LOVER HAS GONE WHERE MY LOVER HAS GONE

Verse 1
I tried with all I knew to fix it, to find a way..
How I held on to you day after day after day,
but no matter how hard I tried, I had to look for the good in goodbye.
Chorus: 1
Look for the good in goodbye, look for the happiness beyond the cloudy sky
Right through the tears in our eyes we’ve got to look for the good in goodbye
Verse 2
I did all that I could do I said all that I could say
I did my best for you, then I prayed and I prayed and I prayed but
Some things just won’t be denied and we have to look for the good in goodbye.
Release:1
Maybe someday we will meet again, but who knows where or when
But if as they say, true love never ends, then it’s just, goodbye darling.. until then… we’ve got to…

Any one alive can see
It’s not the way it used to be
You and I’ve been holding on to
A time and a place and a world that’s gone
But it, Sure has been Good Loving You Baby
Tho.. chilly winds blow colder every day
Sure has been Good Loving You Baby
I know what (the people say) our friends all say,
There’s nothing here but yesterday
We’re too old to lie, too young to die
Say, good luck Babe, God Bless, Goodbye
And it, Sure has been Good Loving You Baby
The Signs all say we should be on our way
Sure has been Good Loving You Baby
INST…………….
They say I’m living in the past,
That all things must change, that love don’t last
but they don’t know and they never will
How much I loved you then, (and) How much I love you still
Yes it sure has been good Loving you Baby
These simple words are all that I can say
Sure has been good loving you Baby
Yes it sure has been good loving you Baby
In all ways and forever come what may
It sure has been good loving you Bay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay be…..

Soon everyone will see, everyone will know,
the long, long night is over
We will look and we will find
we’ve left the past behind, it’s over
Soon all the world will say look we made it all the way,
tho no child was ever blinder
it will be a very special sun,
that shines on what we’ve done,
oh listen, I want you to listen..
Soon there will come a day, our love will show the way,
and all men will be brothers
And I will see that day or die, with all my life I’ll try,
with every breath I’ll talk it and shout it and sing all about it
Soon maybe not today, maybe not tonight maybe not tomorrow
But I, I won’t let a chance go by,
I’ll really really try, don’t you ever doubt it
Soon there will come a day, our love will show the way,
and all men will be brothers
And I will see that day or die, with all my life I’ll try,
with every breath I’ll talk it and shout it and sing all about it
Soon maybe not today, maybe not tonight maybe not tomorrow
But I, won’t let a chance go by, It’s a case of do or die,
Won’t live with out it
Soon, Soon, Soon, Oh I know it’s coming Soon…

Please be well, please be kind
Please take care of your heart and don't let them get to your mind.
Please be well, please be fine
Please stay healthy and happy and don't leave me too far behind.
Walk through the sunset of the city, it's not like a lazy afternoon
There's a lack of grace here, there's an awful grey fear
Reaching out and tearing at the moon…
Please be well, please be kind
Please take care of your heart and don't let them get to your mind.
I see so many empty faces, so many following the loon
But I won't forget you, and I don't regret you
I just know Ill miss you all too soon…
Please be well, please be kind
Please take care of your heart and don't let them get to your mind.
Please be well, please be fine
Please stay healthy and happy and don't leave me too far behind.
Please Be Well…..
