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
