Another Place
Sunlight falls lightly on your face
Hold you tight in warm embrace
Lights your features with quiet grace
The sun continues another place
Quiet moving clouds in sky
Birds floating with butterfly
Trees look down and they imply
Someday you will learn to fly
Long lost love of time ago
Tells of then when love would flow
Believed to endure
when cold winds blow
Harsh it was when love said go
Sunlight falls lightly on your face
Hold you tight in warm embrace
Lights your features with quiet grace
The sun continues another place

Lovin'
There was a time when I was blind
and then I met you
And from the first time we met girl
I knew that I would not forget you
You really blew my mind
and put me in a bind
You gave me lovin' and lovin'
and lovin' and lovin'
and lovin' and lovin'
And love and I know I won't let you go
You came around when I was down
and feeling lonely
You came along like a song
and you told me that I was the only
I wanna tell the world
about my special girl
Who gives me lovin' and lovin'
and lovin' and lovin'
and lovin' and lovin'
And love and I know I won't let you go
And when I say I'm gonna stay
please believe me
Because I need you so much and I
hope that you won't ever leave me
And if you want to know
the way you please me so
You give me lovin' and lovin'
and lovin' and lovin'
and lovin' and lovin'
And love and I know I won't let you go

It's All
Well it's all in the clothes you wear
And it's all in the way you fix your hair
in the sunlight it's alright
Well it's all in the things you say
And it's all in the very special way
you love me you love me
You know it's not my style
to tell the world
just how I feel today
But it's all that I want to do
And it's all that you want me to
And it's all out of loving you
that I feel this way
Well it's all in a loving smile
And it's all in a moment all the while
when I'm near you I hear you
Well it's all in the air you breathe
And it's all in your arms I'll never leave
I love you I love you
You know I realize what's on your mind
is something I can't say
But it's all that I want to do
And it's all that you want me to
And it's all out of loving you
that I feel this way

Shady Lady
My woman was a shady lady
Shady as a cloudy night
Every time I felt like I
needed sunshine
My baby made me feel alright
My woman was a shady lady
Shady as a winter's day
Every time I felt like I
needed someone
My baby let me have my way
My woman was a shady lady
Shady as a broken smile
Every time I felt like I
needed something
My baby let me stay awhile
My woman was a shady lady
Shadier than all the rest
Every time I felt like I
needed loving
My baby gave me love the best

You Alone
Within myself I live for
what the new day has in store
As days go by I realize
I love you more and more
My every thought reflects upon
the words that you may say
For only you and you alone
do make me feel this way
Today I see the sunlight while
yesterday was cloudy
Your laughter brings an inner warmth
which now glows all around me
Tomorrow is another day
during which I hope to say
That only you and you alone
still make me feel this way
Although we may not look at
what the future has in store
As each day dawns I come to know
I love you even more
If time should come
when you must leave
and take your love away
My heart will know that you alone
did make me feel this way

A Winter's Day Sitting On Lover's Bridge
Here I am
a mere shell of a man
Seeming so happy
but yet I'm so sad
The emptiness inside
it fills up my heart
Makes it so hard
to play the happy part
I can't understand
whatever went wrong
We tried to keep away from
the maddening throng
But then I guess
that may have been the reason
You got tired of me
not changing with the season
I know you want something
to do with your life
And you know
that I don't want any strife
But yet you know
I still can't understand
Why you left me
I just can't understand

Tonight
All day long I've thought of you
in my imagination
Waiting for the stars to shine
in sweet anticipation
For when the sunshine disappears
and evening comes to light
I know my dreams will all come true
I'll be with you tonight
Tonight I'll have your love I know
Tonight I'll never want to go
Tonight I'll want the world to know
that you're my girl
Now the sun fades from the sky
creating expectations
On my way to see your smile
a lovely situation
I'm looking forward to your love
I wish you only knew
No matter what the future brings
tonight I'll be with you
Tonight you'll be right here with me
Tonight you'll set my senses free
Tonight you'll smile because you'll see
that you're my world

As Long As The Sun Still Shines
As long as the sun still shines
Everything's fine
Thinking of you in a special way
As long as I know you're mine
I feel just fine
Knowing the words I want to say
But if ever you should find
That the sun forgot to shine
Don't you worry
I'll love you just the same
In the darkness of the night
And the brightness of the light
I will shower my love like the rain
But as long as the sun still shines
I'll keep this love of mine

That's A Long, Long Time
Yesterday there was a girl
who made me happy
But just like yesterday
the girl is now behind me
It was nice it was fun
but now that it's gone
I never think of her anymore
and never will
And that's a long long time
Today there is a girl
who makes me happy
And just like today
the girl is always with me
Like a song now I find
she's always on my mind
I love the girl who loves only me
and always will
And that's a long long time
Her love I can say
will remain throughout the day
But what about the days
which lie ahead
Still I know she'll be true
so why should I feel blue
'Cos I know
I've got nothing to dread
Tomorrow there'll be a girl
who'll make me happy
And just like tomorrow
the girl will live within me
And if I have my way
the girl I love today
Will be the girl I'll love
tomorrow and forever
And that's a long long time

That Kind Of Girl
Well she's the kind of girl who'll
take you home for dinner
And she's the kind of girl who'll
make you think you can win her
But she'll take you to her home
And then she'll
leave you there alone
Because she's that kind of girl
Well she's the kind of girl who'll
love you in the morning
And she's the kind of girl who'll
leave you without warning
'Cos she'll take you to her bed
And then she'll
drive you out of her head
Because she's that kind of girl
Everyone would tell me
someday she'd leave me
Now I know
and I wish it'd never been
But I've got to carry on
and I'm glad that she is gone
Because a girl like her
lives only in a dream
Well she's the kind of girl who'll
get you to believe her
And she's the kind of girl who'll
go before you can leave her
'Cos she'll take you on inside
And then she'll
chase away your pride
Because she's that kind of girl
