Love Songs
Like a river flows
Surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes
Some things are meant to be
“Can’t Help Falling in Love” – Elvis Presley
Oh, you're wearin' those dresses
Your hair done up so nice
Yeah, you're wearin' those dresses
Your hair done up so nice
Oh, you look so warm
But your heart is cold as ice
“Shake, Rattle and Roll” – Bill Haley & His Comets
I'm aware of where you go
Each time you leave my door
I watch you walk down the street
Knowing your other love you'll meet
But this time before you run to her
Leaving me alone and hurt
“Stop! In the Name of Love” – The Supremes
All my memories gather 'round her
Miner's lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine, teardrops in my eye
“Take Me Home, Country Roads” – John Denver
He rocks in the treetop all the day long
Hoppin' and a-boppin' and a-singin' his song
All the little birds on Jaybird Street
Love to hear the robin go tweet, tweet, tweet
“Rockin’ Robin” – Bobby Day
Like a song of love
That clings to me
How the thought of you
Does things to me
Never before
Has someone been more
“Unforgettable” – Nat King Cole
Will you be mine?
My darling dear
Love you all the time
I'm just a fool
A fool in love with you
“Earth Angel” – The Penguins
I-I love the colorful clothes she wears
And the way the sunlight plays upon her hair
I hear the sound of a gentle word
On the wind that lifts her perfume through the air
“Good Vibrations” – The Beach Boys
But now I look at the night
And it don't seem so lonely
We fill it up with only two
And when I hurt
Hurtin' runs off my shoulders
How can I hurt when holdin' you?
“Sweet Caroline” – Neil Diamond
Young man, there's no need to feel down, I said
Young man, pick yourself off the ground, I said
Young man, 'cause you're in a new town
There's no need to be unhappy
“Y.M.C.A.” – Village People
The skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up in clover
The night I looked at you
“At Last” – Etta James
Why do they fall in love?
Why does the rain fall from up above?
“Why Do Fools Fall in Love” – Frankie Lymon & The Teenagers
I'm about to give you all of my money
And all I'm askin' in return, honey
Is to give me my propers when you get home
“Respect” – Aretha Franklin
And I knew if I had my chance
That I could make those people dance
And maybe they'd be happy for a while
But February made me shiver
With every paper I'd deliver
“American Pie” – Don McLean
Well now, I get low and I get high
And if I can't get either, I really try
Got the wings of heaven on my shoes
I'm a dancin' man and I just can't lose
You know it's all right, it's okay
I'll live to see another day
We can try to understand
The New York Times' effect on man
“Stayin’ Alive” – Bee Gees
Lonely rivers flow
To the sea, to the sea
To the open arms of the sea, yeah
Lonely rivers sigh
"Wait for me, wait for me"
I'll be coming home, wait for me
“Unchained Melody” – The Righteous Brothers
His mother told him "someday you will be a man
And you will be the leader of a big old band
Many people coming from miles around
To hear you play your music when the sun go down
“Johnny B. Goode” – Chuck Berry
And whatever happened
To Tuesday and so slow?
Going down the old mine with a
Transistor radio
Standing in the sunlight laughing
Hiding 'hind a rainbow's wall
Slipping and sliding
All along the waterfall with you
“Brown Eyed Girl” – Van Morrison
When you're weary
Feeling small
When tears are in your eyes
I will dry them all
I'm on your side
Oh, when times get rough
And friends just can't be found
“Bridge Over Troubled Water” – Simon & Garfunkel
When I had you to myself, I didn't want you around
Those pretty faces always made you stand out in a crowd
But someone picked you from the bunch, one glance was all it took
Now it's much too late for me to take a second look
“I Want You Back” – The Jackson 5
Guess you feel you'll always be the one and only one for me
And if you think you could
“Chances Are” – Johnny Mathis
I chew my nails and I twiddle my thumbs
I'm real nervous, but it sure is fun
“Great Balls of Fire” – Jerry Lee Lewis
Sittin' here resting my bones
And this loneliness won't leave me alone
It's two thousand miles I roamed
“(Sittin’ On) The Dock of the Bay” – Otis Redding
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feelin' alright
“Piano Man” – Billy Joel
There's a party goin' on right here
A dedication to last throughout the years
So bring your good times and your laughter too
“Celebration” – Kool & The Gang
