- I will be here for you
Nitakungodea Milele
Nitakungodea Milele
These are the words I say ... when I want you near to me,
From that place deep in my heart ... you will see.
I am never far away ... when you turn to every place,
When you reach out for my love ... I'll be there , yeaaah,
- After aLL
There, there was a time I knew
That no matter, come what may, love
would prevail
And then inside the dreams I knew
Came the question lovers fear
Can true love fail
Then I would miss the childhood wish
And haven't I sung to you
- Aladdin's Lamp
Just beside the door
The bold and certain hand
That turned the dragons trembled
He touched the Holy Lamp
And faintly saw his feet
And just beside the door,
His pure uncertain tears
- All
Ah yes
Mm
More than you can carry
Further than your eyes could see
I'd be giving it all to thee
My all if I thought that you could be a little bit tender
All, if I thought that you could be about to surrender
All to see, or even almost all

- Alonzo
And when I think of Alonzo-
He was king around the bay
He'd come sporting and flashing
Hearts would drift away
Could be-he had a dream-
Came upon the scene where the
Lamb and lion play
- Betty Bebop's Song
I thought I'd drop a line
Just saying
How your song's
Been playing
A pretty pitter patter
It lightly played
The summer rain
Upon my face
- Boogie Down
[Chorus]
I can be what I want to
And all I need is to
Get my boogie down
I can be what I want to
You know all I need is to
Get my boogie down
- Brite N' Sunny Babe
This is for you, when it's rainin', honey
Said, when you get there be bright and'sunny, babe
Come on show the sun inside cloudy weather
Rain and rose, true lovers forever
Let 'em know you know love and smile
Your best bouquet
Said, show the sun inside cloudy weather
Rain and rose, gonna be lovers forever
- Call Me
Call me
Call me
Call me
What a beautiful time we had together
Now it's getting late and we must leave each other
Just remember the time we had
And how right I tried to be
- Compared To What
Now you know
You know just how the whole story goes

Thought i let you know what i'm giving back
Confusion, Difussion

- Gloria in Excelsis
Oh blessed town
Of Bethlehem
Within thy gray
Green shade
Ringed round
With
Terraced vineyard
And depth
- Groovin' High
Be silent
And listen
The summer night has got something to say
Honey be silent
And listen
A little whisper like a preacher would pray
Honey be silent
- Heaven and Earth
I've always believed in dreams
And that fantasies somehow come true
When dreaming of you
I've seen a moment's magic shine
Upon the darkest night
And fill it with light
I've heard the wind whisper melody
Of love meant to be
- I Must Have Been a Fool
So you say that I have gone too far
That I really don't know who you are
And did you tell me that you've got to cool your feelings?
So did you say I've fallen overboard
Every danger sign I just ignored
That you never meant to put me out to sea
Ask me where I've been
- I'm Home
There's no greater crime than wastin' your life on a boat goin' nowhere
When you came along you made it safe for love to survive
I trusted and dreamed and you came like I knew you would
I've been 'round before but this feels so good
I could not walk by
I knew that I'd found
What's at the end of the rainbow
- If I Break
You were the one
with schemes of plenty
I was your waiter
Waitin all the while
We were the two
They said could conquer any
Has anyone seen my missing smile
- In My Music
In my music, lalala
Keeps me happy
Flowin' on
In my music, lalala
You'll be the one thing
That won't ever let me down
You'll be my piece of the pie
- It's Not Hard to Love You
Drivin' in my car, it's rainin' hard
I've gotta get to ya baby
Traffic's movin' slow, it's stop 'n go
And I keep dreamin' 'bout ya baby,yeah
Now when I finally get my hands on you
We'll be makin' love the whole night through
Anything you want just take from me
- Just To Be Loved
"Just to be Loved"
By: Bill Champlin, Greg Mathieson
I was down to the bone I was lonely only yesterday
Didn't know I was throwin my chances away
Then you came along just long enough to see
Far beyond the fool that I have come to be
- Kissing My Love
When I'm kissing my love
I can hear a thump thumping in my head
when I'm kissing my love
I close my eyes and see a pretty city
With a million flower beds
I can hear the angels sing
Songs that only angels sing
- Let Me Love You
Must have been that something you told me
Whispered just the other day
Said that youd be leaving tomorrow
But theres got to be some other way
To bring you closer
Can we look closer
Would you stay with me
- Letter Perfect
Letter perfect stars of
Gold in school
You got a right to shout,
You been living the Golden Rule
In your time broken-hearted
Beggars danced for you, girl
"Doing alright,"I hear you shout,
- Lock All The Gates
By snowy fields and lanes
she keeps the waiting
In candlelight the sacred
alter shines
He suckled the young lambs
upon his knee
Giving the weary sleep in peace
He read the stars inside her dream
- Lotus
Without a whisper
Without a chore
All without ambition
That awaits 10,000's roar
The perfect vision
Of less is more
Awake in me
Lotus Flower
- Love Is Real
You think that love
Is just a fairy tale
Maybe true love is sold
And bought
Hansel and Gretel found
Their candy getting stale
And you're gonna find
You ain't no Goldilocks
- Love of My Life
Hey baby where you been
Don't try to stare me down with lying eyes
My baby don't you know that I'm the one
Who's been right by your side
How many times I have to tell you
That no one could love you more
Can I believe it's me you're pimpin' for
- Mas Que Nada
O aria raio
Oba oba oba
O aria raio
Oba oba oba
Mas que nada
Sai da minha frente que eu quero passar
Pois o samba está animado
O que eu quero é sambar
- My Foolish Heart
The night is like a lovely tune, beware my foolish heart!
How white the ever constant moon, take care, my foolish heart!
There's a line between love and fascination,
That's hard to see on an evening such as this,
For they give the very same sensation.
When you are lost in the passion of a kiss.
Your lips are much too close to mine, beware my foolish heart!
But should our eager lips combine, then let the fire start.
- My old friend
Steubenhaus. Steve Gadd, Bob Zimmitt
"My Old Friend"
I can recall those warm summer days.
No decisions.Child's play.
Did they slip away?
Gone forever.Gone forever.
Lost to yesterday.
- Never Givin' Up
I've been afraid that I had missed the
Chance of a lifetime
And by the way
I've tumbled with romance, girl,
And I don't cry
But now I'm
Searching every star
- Not Like This
Not like this without a single tear
We can't just walk away as
if it never happened
Our kind of love has never talked
in whispers
So if it's time to go, lets do it right
and go out loud
- One Way
One thing will lead to another
one touch and I'm closer to you
Oh, how I yearn to discover
All of the things I need to do
to live, to live to live al life of luxury...
Holding you in my arms
your heart, your heart, your heart, your
heart would belong to me
- Pleasure
Love me love me tender
My being surrenders to you
'cause you know what to do
So make me make me tremble
That will be a symbol of
The l-o-v-e's there when
We make love
We make love
- Pleasure over Pain
Three after two
The autum moments of a night without you
Endless seconds
Watching one window pain fight back the rain
While I'm trapped here inside your love
[Chorus]
Once upon a time
- Raggedy Ann
Do you know that it was
By design
How you told me, told me,
Told me
That you were free and
It was by design
How you wiggle, wiggle,
Start to wiggle
- Rainbow In Your Eyes
Well, love`s got a hold on me, won`t let go,
because it is the real thing baby
and I just wanna let you know,
that I love you all the way,
more and more each day,
and I love to hear you say, say
Well, loves' got a hold on me, too,
- Roof Garden
chorus:
Does anyone wanna go
waltzing in the garden?
Does anyone wanna go
dance up on the roof?
(repeat)
On the town,
Sequins evening gown
- Save Your Love for Me
wish i knew
why i'm so in love with you

if i were wise i'd run away
but like a fool in love i stay
and pray you'll save your love for me.
- Scootcha-Booty
Number one is
The (clock) track is runnin' darlin'
Drummer's drummin'
The pulse is pumpin' darlin'
Summer's gone in
The distance runnin' darlin'
Scootcha-booty bottom move
Scootcha-booty bottom move
- Since I Fell For You
Intro:
When you give love and never get love,
You'd better let love depart,
I know it's so and still I know,
I can't get you out'a my heart.
You made me leave my happy home,
You took my love and now you're gone,
Since I fell for you.
- So Good
There's no greater crime
Than wastin' your life
On a boat goin' nowhere
When you came along
You made it safe
For love to survive
I trusted and dreamed
And you came like I knew you would
- Some Children See Him
Some children see him
Lily white
The baby Jesus
Born this night
Some children see him
Lily white
With tresses soft
And fair
- Spain
"Spain (I Can Recall)"
Yesterday
Just a photograph of yesterday
and all it's edges folded
and the corners faded sepia brown
and yet it's all I have of our past love
a post script to it's ending
- Spain минус
Yesterday, just a photograph of yesterday...
And all it's edges folded and the corners faded sleepy brown.
And yet it's all I have of our past love,
A post script to it's ending.
Brighter days, I can see such brighter days.
When every song we sang is sung again.
And now we know, we know this time it's for good.
- Spirit
There is a way to make
Sweet feeling last
There is a way to be
Sheltered when the wind is free
There is a way my father
Taught me how to sing
And I sing my song every day now
- Superfine Love
I've been walking on a tightrope
Ever since I made up my mind
And I'm swaying with the wind
From my left to my right
Everyone's pretending
They don't wanna see me fall
But I never let 'em touch me
- Susan's Song
Susan wants to take me
To a party over yonder
Susan wants to take me
To her heart
It's a arm and tender place there,
Do you know
Susan, I've been living here
In this fortress
- Take Five
Just stop and take a little time out with me
Oh just take five, just take five
Stop your busy day and take the time out to see
That I'm alive, I'm alive
Oh, though I'm going out of my way
Just so I can pass by each day
Not a single word do we say
- The Same Love That Made Me Laugh
Your love is like a chunk of gold
Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
Hard to gain and hard to hold
Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
Like a rose that's so soft to touch
Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
Love has gone and it hurts so much
- Tired Of Being Alone
I'm so tired of being alone
I'm so tired of on-my-own
Won't you help me girl
Just as soon as you can
People say that I've found a way
To make you say that you love me
Hey baby, you didn't go for that
- Try A Little Tenderness
She may be weary
Women do get weary
Wearing the same shabby dress
And when she's weary
Try a little tenderness
You know she's waiting
Just anticipating
- Until You Love Me
I want to know the places that you go when you're all alone.
And I want to see all the secrets that you keep when you're not with me.
And I'll open the treasures of love deep in my heart.
CHORUS:
And I promise I'll hold you close to me.
I'll write you a song with words so sweet
And I'll sing to you the melody,
- Untill you love me
Until You Love Me
I want to know the places that you go when you’re all alone.
And I want to see all the secrets that you keep when you’re not with me.
And I’ll open the treasures of love deep in my heart.
And I promise I’ll hold you close to me.
I’ll write you a song with words so sweet
- Wait a Little While
Here's a sweet September morning, there's the sense of Autumn on the rise
He steps into the wind and sadly sighs
"Why does it always seem to be, there's a cold December wind in front of me?"
The more he fills his empty evenings
The less he feels that there's a chance to find
Something that can bring a peace of mind
Is there a place where you can go?
A little something you should know to turn the tide to your favor?
- Wait for the Magic
billy jones is a mover
and he has a million plans
wants to be the big improver
wants to be a wealthy man
there are days when billy loses hope
days when hope loses him
he prays he can just hold out
and one day he will win.
- Waltz For Debby
In her own sweet world
Populated by dolls and clowns
And a prince and a big purple bear
Lives my favorite girl.
Unaware of the worried frowns
That we weary grown-ups all wear.
- We Got By
I hardly had a bellyful
Never knew a new bicycle
Hand-me-down books and shoes
They brought the yule tides in July
I rode a bus, a train and sometimes
Strolling for miles to a movie show
Singing a song "Shoobedoo
- Were in this love together
It's like a diamond ring
It's a precious thing
And we never want to lose it
It's like a favorite song that we love to sing
Ev'ry time we hear the music
And we're in this love together
We got the kind that lasts forever
- You
Everyday, there's something new honey, to keep me loving you
And with every passing minute, so much joy wrapped up in it
Oh! heaven must have sent you from above
Oh, heaven must have sent your precious love
And now, I've got a song to sing,
Tellin' the world about the joy you bring
And you gave me reason for living
And oh, you taught me the meaning of giving
- You Don't See Me
You don't see me when I'm
Trying to do right
Maybe you can see me now
When I was walking,
Patting my feet on the pavement
Really, truly trying to find a gig
Did you stand up and speak
- Your Song
It's a little bit funny, this feeling inside
I'm not one of those, who can easily hide
I don't have much money, but boy if I did
I'd buy a big house where we both could live.
If I was a sculptor, but then again no,
Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show
I know it's not much, but it's the best I can do
