모닝커피: 아침을 위한 올드팝 베스트 40 [compilation] (2006) by Various Artists (보컬) on maniadb.com

When I saw you standing there
I about fell off my chair
And when you moved your
mouth to speak
I felt the blood go to my feet
Now it took time for me to know
What you tried so not to show
Something in my soul just cried
I see the want in your blue eyes
Baby I'd love you to want me
The way that I want you
The way that it should be
Mmm baby you'd love me to want you
The way that I want to
If you'd only let it be
You told yourself years ago
You'd never let your feelings show
The obligation that you made
For the title that they gave
Baby I'd love you to want me
The way that I want you
The way that it should be
Mmm baby you'd love me to want you
The way that I want to
If you'd only let it be

Now it took time for me to know
What you tried so not to show
Something in my soul just cried
I see the want in your blue eyes
Baby I'd love you to want me
The way that I want you
The way that it should be
Mmm baby you'd love me to want you
The way that I want to
If you'd only let it be
Oh baby I'd love you to want me
The way that I want you
The way that it should be
Mmm baby you'd love me to want you
The way that I want to
If you'd only let it be

If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that I'd like to do
Is to save every day till eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you

If I could make days last forever
If words could make wishes come true
I'd save every day like a treasure and then
Again, I would spend them with you

But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do, once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go through time with

If I had a box just for wishes
And dreams that had never come true
The box would be empty, except for the memory of how
They were answered by you

But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do, once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go through time with

There'll be no strings
to bind your hands
not if my love
can't bind your heart.
there's no need
to take a stand
for it was I who chose to start.
I see no need to take me home,
I'm old enough to face the dawn.
Just call me angel
of the morning angel
just touch my cheek before you
leave me, baby
just call me angel of the
morning angel
then slowly turn away from me.
Maybe the sun's light will be dim
and it won't matter anyhow.
If morning's echo says
we've sinned,
well, it was what I wanted now
And if we're the victims
of the night,
I won't be blinded by light
Just call me angel of the
morning angel
just touch my cheek before you
leave me, baby
Just call me angel of the
morning angel
then slowly turn away,
I won't beg you to stay with me
through the tears of the day,
of the years, baby
Just call me angel of the
morning ANGEL
just touch my cheek
before you leave me, baby
Just call me angel of the
morning angel
just touch my cheek
before you leave me, darling
Just call me angel of the
morning angel
just touch my cheek
before you leave me, darling

Don't look so sad, I know it's over
But life goes on
And this old world just keeps on turning

Let's just be glad, we had this time
To spend together
There's no need to watch the bridges
That were burning.

Lay your head on my pillow
Hold your warm and tender body next to mine
Hear the whisper of the raindrops
Beating soft against the window
And make believe you love me one more time
For the good times.

I get along you'll find another
And I'll be here if you should find
You ever need me.

Don't say a word
About tomorrow or forever
There'll be time enough
For sadness when you leave.

Lay your head on my pillow a€|

What do you get when you fall in love
A girl with a pin to burst your bubble
That's what you get for all your troubble
I'll never fall in love again
I'll never fall in love again

What do you get when you kiss a guy
You get enough germs to catch pneumonia
After you do, he'll never phone you
I'll never fall in love again
I'll never fall in love again

Don't tell me what it's all about
'Cause I've been there and I'm glad I'm out
Out of those chains,
those chains that bind you
That is why I'm here to remind you

What do you get when you fall in love?
You only get lies and pain and sorrow
So far at least until tomorrow
I'll never fall in love again
I'll never fall in love again

Don't tell me what it's all about
'Cause I've been there and I'm glad I'm out
Out of those chains,
those chains that bind you
That is why I'm have here to remind you
Here to remind you, here to remind you
Toh! here to remind you

What do you get when you fall in love
You only get lies and pain and sorrow
So, far at least until tomorrow
I'll never fall in love again
I'll never fall in love again

Listen to the pouring rain
Listen to it pour
And with every drop of rain
you know I love you more
Let it rain all night long
Let my love for you grow strong
As long as we're together
Who cares about the weather
**
Listen to the falling rain
Listen to it fall
And with every drop of rain I can hear you call
Call my name right out loud
I can hear above the clouds
and down here among the puddles
You and I together huddle
Listen to the falling rain
Listen to the rain
It's raining, it's pouring
The old man is snoring
Went to bed and he bumped his head
Couldn't get up in the morning

Ooh, I bet you're wond'rin' how I knew
'bout your plans to make me blue
With some other guy you knew before
Between the two of us guys you know I love you more
It took me by surprise I must say
When I found out yesterday
Dontcha know that I

Heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Oh I heard it through the grapevine
Oh I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey yeah
(Heard it through the grapevine)
(Not much longer would you be my baby, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

I know a man ain't supposed to cry
But these tears I can't hold inside
Losin' you would end my life you see
'cause you mean that much to me
You could have told me yourself
That you loved someone else
Instead I

Heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Oh I heard it through the grapevine
And I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey yeah
(Heard it through the grapevine)
(Not much longer would you be my baby, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

People say believe half of what you see
Son, and none of what you hear
But I can't help bein' confused
If it's true please tell me dear
Do you plan to let me go
For the other guy you loved before?
Dontcha know I

Heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Baby I heard it through the grapevine
Ooh I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey yeah
(Heard it through the grapevine)
(Not much longer would you be my baby, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Honey, honey, I know
That you're lettin' me go
Said I heard it through the grapevine
Heard it through the grapevine

Hey lady, you lady
cursing at your life
you're a discontented mother
and a regimented wife
I have no doubt
you dream about the things you never do
but I wish someone had talked to me like I wanna talk to you

Oh, I've been to Georgia and California and anywhere I could run
Took the hand of a preacher man
and we made love in the sun
But I ran out of places and friendly faces
Because I had to be free
I've been to paradise but I've never been to me...

Please lady please lady
don't just walk away
Cause I have this need to tell you
why I'm all alone today
I can see so much of me
still living in your eyes
won't you share a part
of a weary heart that has lived a million lives

Oh, I've been to Nice and the isle of Greece
when I sipped champagne on a yacht
I moved like Harlo in Monte Carlo
and showed them what I've got
I've been undressed by kings
and I've seen some things that a woman ain't s'pose to see
I've been to paradise but I've never been to me...

Hey, you know what paradise is?
It's a lie
a fantasy we created about people and places
as we like them to be
but you know what truth is?
it's that little baby you're holding
and it's that man you fought with this morning
the same one you are gonna make love to tonight
that's truth that's love

sometimes I've been to crying for unborn children
that might have made me complete
but I, I took the sweet life
I never knew I'd be bitter from the sweet

I spent my life exploring
the subtle whoreing
that cost to much to be free
hey lady I've been to paradise
but I've never been to me...

I've been to paradise but I've never been to me...

Always and forever each moment with you
Is just like a dream to me that somehow came true
And I know tomorrow will still be the same
'Cause we've got a life of love that won't ever change and

(Chorus)
Everyday love me your own special way
Melt all my heart away with a smile
Take time to tell me you really care
And we'll share tomorrow together
I'll always love you

Forever, forever

There'll always be sunshine when I look at you
Something I can't explain just the things that you do
And if you get lonely phone me and take
A second to give to me that magic you make and

Chorus

Forever, Forever
Loving you is the thing that I plan
For a very long time
Me and you, you and me, we as one

I don't know how to love him
What to do, how to move him
I've been changed, yes really changed
In these past few days when I've seen myself
I seem like someone else

I don't know how to take this
I don't see why he moves me
He's a man, he's just a man
And I've had so many men before
In very many ways
He's just one more

Should I bring him down
Should I scream and shout
Should I speak of love
Let my feelings out
I never thought I'd come to this
What's it all about

Don't you think it's rather funny
I should be in this position
I'm the one who's always been
So calm, so cool, no lover's fool
Running every show
He scares me so

I never thought I'd come to this
What's it all about
What's it all about

If he said he loved me
I'd be lost, I'd be frightened
I couldn't cope, just couldn't cope
I'd turn my head, I'd back away
I wouldn't want to know
He scares me so
I love him so
I love him so

See the tree, how big it's grown,
But friend, it hasn't been too long it wasn't big
I laughed at her, and she got mad
The first day that she planted it, was just a twig

Then the first snow came and she ran out
To brush the snow away so it wouldn't die...
Came runnin' in all excited slipped and almost hurt herself
And I laughed 'til I cried

She was always young at heart
Kinda dumb and kinda smart and I loved her so
And I surprised her with a puppy
Kept me up all Christmas Eve 2 years ago

And it would sure embarrass her
When I came in from workin' late cause I would know
That she'd been sittin there an' cryin'
Over some sad and silly late, late show

And Honey, I miss you
And I'm bein' good
And I'd love to be with you
If only I could

She wrecked the car, and she was sad
And so afraid that I'd be mad
But, what the heck though I pretended hard to be
Guess you could say she saw through me and hugged my neck...

I came home unexpectedly
And caught her cryin' needlessly, in the middle of the day
And it was in the early spring
When flowers bloom, and robins sing, she went away...

And Honey, I miss you
And I'm bein' good
And I'd love to be with you
If only I could

One day while I was not at home,
While she was there and all alone the angels came
Now all I have is memories of Honey
And I wake up nights and call her name

Now my life's an empty stage
Where Honey lived, and Honey played and love grew up
and a small cloud passes over head
And cries down on the flower bed that Honey loved

And see the tree how big it's grown
But, friend it hasn't been too long, it wasn't big
And I laughed at her, she got mad
The first day that she planted it, was just a twig...

Laura and Tommy were lovers
He wanted to give her everything
Flowers, presents and most of all
a wedding ring
He saw a sign for a stock car race
A thousand dollar prize it read
He couldn't get Laura on the phone
So to her mother Tommy said
Tell Laura I love her
Tell Laura I need her
Tell Laura I may be late
I've something to do
that cannot wait
He drove his car
to the racing grounds
He was the youngest driver there
And the crowed roared
as they started the race
'Round the track
they drove at a deadly pace
No one knows what
happened that day
How his car overturned in flames
But as they pulled him
from the twisted wreck
With his dying breath
they heard him say
Tell Laura I love her
Tell Laura I need her
Tell Laura not to cry
My love for her will never die
And in the chapel
where Laura prays
For Tommy who passed away
It was just for Laura
he lived and died
Alone in the chapel
she can hear him cry
Tell Laura I love her
Tell Laura I need her
Tell Laura not to cry
My love for her will never die
Tell Laura I love her
Tell Laura I love her
Tell Laura I love her

One month ago today I was happy as a lark
But now I go for walks to the movies maybe to the park
I have a seat on the same ole bench
To watch the children play
You know tomorrows their future
But for me its just another day
They all gather round me they seem to know my name
We laugh, tell a few jokes but it still doesnt ease my pain
I know I cant hide from her memory
But day after day I try
I keep saying She′ll be back
But today again I lied

I see her face everywhere I go
On the street and even at the picture show
Have you seen her tell me have you seen her
Oh I hear her voice as the cold winds blow
In the sweet music on my radio
Have you seen her tell me have you seen her

Why oh why did she have to leave and go away
Ohhhhh
I′ve been used to having someone to lean on
And i′m lost, baby i′m lost

Have you seen her tell me have you seen her

Have you seen her tell me have you seen her

She left her kiss upon my lips
But she left a break within my heart
Have you seen her tell me have you seen her

Oh I see her hand reaching out to me
Only she can set me free
Have you seen her tell me have you seen her

Why oh why did she have to leave and go away
oh yeah
ohhhhh I′ve been used to having someone to lean on
And i′m lost, baby i′m lost

Ohhhh

Have you seen her tell me have you seen her

Ohhhh

As another day comes to an end
I′m looking for a letter or something
Or anything that she would send
With all the people I know I′m still a lonely man
You know its funny I thought I had her in the palm of my hand
Have you seen her tell me have you seen her

oh yeah
Have you seen her
Have you seen her tell me have you seen her
Have you seen her
Have you seen her tell me have you seen her
Have you seen her tell me have you seen her
Have you seen her tell me have you seen her
Have you seen her tell me have you seen her
Have you seen her tell me have you seen her

When a man loves a woman
Can't keep his mind on nothin' else
He'd trade the world
For a good thing he's found
If she is bad, he can't see it
She can do no wrong
Turn his back on his best friend
If he puts her down

When a man loves a woman
Spend his very last dime
Trying to hold on to what he needs
He'd give up all his comforts
And sleep out in the rain
If she said that's the way
It ought to be

When a man loves a woman
I give you everything I've got (yeah)
Trying to hold on
To your precious love
Baby please don't treat me bad

When a man loves a woman
Deep down in his soul
She can bring him such misery
If she is playing him for a fool
He's the last one to know
Loving eyes can never see

Yes when a man loves a woman
I now exactly how he feels
'Cause baby, baby, baby
I am a man
When a man loves a woman

If you want something to play with
Go and find yourself a toy
Baby my time is too expensive
And I'm not a little boy

If you are serious
Don't play with my heart
It makes me furious
But if you want me to love you
Then a baby I will, girl you know that I will

Tell it like it is
Don't be ashamed to let your conscience be your guide
But I know deep down inside me
I believe you love me, forget your foolish pride

Life is too short to have sorrow
You may be here today and gone tomorrow
You might as well get what you want
So go on and live, baby go on and live

Tell it like it is
I'm nothing to play with
Go and find yourself a toy
But I... Tell it like it is
My time is too expensive and I'm not your little boy

First when there's nothing
But a slow glowing dream
That your fear seems to hide
Deep inside your mind

All alone, I have cried
Silent tears full of pride
In a world made of steel
Made of stone

Well, I hear the music
Close my eyes, feel the rhythm
Wrap around, take a hold of my heart

What a feeling
Being's believing
I can have it all
Now I'm dancing for my life
Take your passion
And make it happen
Pictures come alive
You can dance right through your life

Now I hear the music
Close my eyes, I am rhythm
In a flash, it takes hold of my heart

What a feeling, being's believing
I can have it all
Now I'm dancing for my life
Take your passion
And make it happen
Pictures come alive
Now I'm dancing through my life

What a feeling

What a feeling (I am music now)
Being's believing (I am rhythm now)
Pictures come alive
You can dance right through your life

What a feeling (I can really have it all)
Being's believing
(Pictures come alive when I call)
I can have it all (I can really have it all)
Have it all (pictures come alive when I call)
(Call, call ,call, call, what a feeling)
I can have it all (being's believing)
Being's believing (take your passion)

Woman, take me in your arms
Rock your baby
Woman, take me in your arms
Rock your baby

There's nothin' to it
Just say you wanna do it
Open up your heart
And let the lovin' start

Woman, take me in your arms
Rock your baby
Woman, take me in your arms
Rock your baby

Yeah, hold me tight
With all your might
Now let your lovin' flow
Real sweet and slow

Woman, take me in your arms
Rock your baby
Woman, take me in your arms
Rock your baby

C'mon...
Ahhhh...

Woman, take me in your arms
Rock your baby
Oo, oo, oo
Woman, take me in your arms
Rock your baby

Ah-aaaaaah, yeah,
Take me in your arms and rock me
Ah-aaaaaah, yeah,
Take me in your arms and rock me
Ah-aaaaaah-aaaaaah

Her hair is Harlowe gold,
Her lips sweet surprise
Her hands are never cold,
She's got Bette Davis eyes
She'll turn her music on you,
You won't have to think twice
She's pure as New York snow,
She got Bette Davis eyes

And she'll tease you,
She'll unease you
All the better just to please you
She's precocious and she knows just
What it takes to make a pro blush
She got Greta Garbo stand off sighs,
She's got Bette Davis eyes

She'll let you take her home,
It whets her appetite
She'll lay you on her throne,
She got Bette Davis eyes
She'll take a tumble on you,
Roll you like you were dice
Until you come out blue,
She's got Bette Davis eyes

She'll expose you, when she snows you
Off your feet with the crumbs she throws you
She's ferocious and she knows just
What it takes to make a pro blush
All the boys think she's a spy,
She's got Bette Davis eyes

And she'll tease you,
She'll unease you
All the better just to please you
She's precocious, and she knows just
What it takes to make a pro blush
All the boys think she's a spy,
She's got Bette Davis eyes...

At first I was afraid,
I was petrified
Kept thinkin' I could never live without you by my side;
But then I spent so many nights
Thinkin' how you did me wrong
And I grew strong
And I learned how to get along
And so you're back,
from outta space
I just walked in to find you here
with that sad look upon your face
I should have changed that stupid lock
I should have made you leave your key
If I had known for just one second you'd be
back to bother me

Go now go, walk out the door
Just turn around now
Cause you're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
Think I'd crumble?
Think I'd lay down and die?
Oh no, not! I'll survive
Oh as long as I know how to love I know I'll be alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give and I'll survive
I wil survive. Hey, hey

It took all the strength I had not to fall apart
Kept tryin' hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart
And I spent oh so many nights
Just feelin' sorry for myself
I used to cry
But now I hold my head up high
And you see me, somebody new
I'm not that chained up little person still in love with you
And so you feel like droppin' in
And just expect me to be free
Now I'm savin' all my love for someone who's lovin' me

Oh-oh-oh-oh... Oh-oh-oh-oh...
Oh-oh-oh-oh... Oh-oh-oh-oh...

Everybody was kung-fu fighting
Those cats were fast as lightning
In fact it was a little bit frightning
But they fought with expert timing
They're funky China men from funky Chinatown
They were chopping them up and
They were chopping them down
It's an ancient Chineese art and
Everybody knew their part
From a feint into a slip, and kickin' from the hip
Everybody was kung-fu fighting
Those cats were fast as lightning
In fact it was a little bit frightning
But they fought with expert timing
There's funky Billy Chin and little Sammy Chung
He said here comes the big boss
lets get it on we took a bow and made a stand
Started swinging with the hand
The sudden motion made me skip now
We're into a brand knew trip
Everybody was kung-fu fighting
Those cats were fast as lightning
In fact it was a little bit frightning
But they fought with expert timing

oh yeah
Oh-oh-oh-oh... Oh-oh-oh-oh...
Oh-oh-oh-oh... Oh-oh-oh-oh...

Everybody was kung-fu fighting
Those cats were fast as lightning
In fact it was a little bit frightning
But they fought with expert timing
Kung-fu fighting, had to be fast as lightning

Oh-oh-oh-oh... Oh-oh-oh-oh...
Oh-oh-oh-oh... Oh-oh-oh-oh...

Don't leave me this way
I can't survive, I can't stay alive
Without you love, oh baby
Don't leave me this way
I can't exist, I will surely miss
Your tender kiss
So don't leave me this way

Oh baby, my heart is full of love and desire for you
So come on down and do what you've got to do
You started this fire down in my soul
Now can't you see it's burning, out of control
So come down and stisfy the need in me
Cos only your good loving can set me free

Don't leave me this way
I don't understand how I'm at your command
So baby please don''t leave me this way

Don't leave me this way
Cos I can't exist
I will surely miss
your tender kiss
So don't leave me this way

Oh baby, my heart is full of love and desire for you...

Don't leave me this way
I can't survive, I can't stay alive
Without you love, oh baby
Don't leave me this way
I can't exist, I will surely miss
Your tender kiss
So don't leave me this way

Oh baby, my heart is full of love and desire for you

Words,don't come easy, to me,
how can I find a way,
to make you see,
I love you
words don't come easy
Words, don't come easy, to me,
this is the only way,
for me to say
I love you
words don't come easy
Well I'm just a music man,
melodie 's so far my best friend
but my words are calling out longer
I reveal my heart to you and
hope that you'll believe it's true, 'cause
Words,don't come easy to me,
how can I find a way,
to make you see,
I love you
words don't come easy
This is just a simple song,
that I've made for you on my own,

how can I find a way,
to make you see,
I love you
words don't come easy
don't come easy to me,
this is the only way,
for me to say,
words don't come easy

Baby, do you understand me now
Sometimes I feel a little mad
But don't you know that no one alive
Can always be an angel
When things go wrong, I seem to be bad

I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

Baby, sometimes I'm so carefree
With a joy that's hard to hide
And sometimes it seems that all I have do is worry
And then you're bound to see my other side

But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

If I seem edgy, I want you to know
That I never mean to take it out on you
Life has its problems, and I get my share
And that's one thing I never mean to do
Because I love you
Oh, oh baby don't you know that I'm human
I have thoughts like any other one
Sometimes I find myself long regretting
Some foolish thing, some little simple thing I've done

I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
Yes, I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
Yes, I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

Yes, I'm just a soul whose intentions are good

I beg your pardon I never
promised you a
rose garden
along with the sunshine
there's got to be
a little rain sometimes
when you take you got to
give so live and
let live or let go
I beg your pardon I never
promised you a
rose garden
I could promise you things
like big diamond rings
but you don't find roses
growing on stocks
of clover so you better think it over
well if sweet talking
you would make it come true
I'd give you the world
right now on a silver platter
but what would it matter
so smile for a while
and let's be jolly
love shouldn't be so melancholy
come along and share
the good times
while we can
I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden
along with the sunshine
there's got to be
a little rain sometimes
I beg your pardon
I never promised you
a rose garden
I could sing you a tune and
promise you the moon
but if that's what
it takes to hold you I'd
just as soon let you go
but there's one thing
I want you to know
you better look before you
leap still water
runs deep and there
won't always be someone
there to pull you out
and you know what
I'm talkin' about
so smile for a while and
let's be jolly love
shouldn't be so
melancholy
come on and share
the good times while we can
I beg your pardon
I never promised you a
rose garden
along with the sunshine
there's got to be
a little rain sometimes
I beg your pardon
I never promised you a
rose garden

I took my troubles down to Madame Ruth
You know that gypsy with the gold-capped tooth
She's got a pad down on Thirty-Fourth and Vine
Sellin' little bottles of Love Potion Number Nine
I told her that I was a flop with chics
I've been this way since 1956
She looked at my palm and she made a magic sign
She said "What you need is Love Potion Number Nine"
She bent down and turned around and gave me a wink
She said "I'm gonna make it up right here in the sink"
It smelled like turpentine, it looked like Indian ink
I held my nose, I closed my eyes, I took a drink
I didn't know if it was day or night
I started kissin' everything in sight
But when I kissed a cop down on Thirty-Fourth and Vine
He broke my little bottle of Love Potion Number Nine
I held my nose, I closed my eyes, I took a drink
I didn't know if it was day or night
I started kissin' everything in sight
But when I kissed a cop down on Thirty-Fourth and Vine
He broke my little bottle of Love Potion Number Nine
Love Potion Number Nine
Love Potion Number Nine
Love Potion Number Nine

♡ (Prelude) ♡ 011
Evening is the time of day
I find nothing much to say
Don't know what to do
But I come to

When it's early in the morning
Over by the window day is dawning
When I feel the air
I feel that life is very good to me, You know
In the sun there's so much yellow
Something in the early morning meadow
Tells me that today you're on your way
And you'll be coming home to me
Home to me


♡ (Interlude - 01) ♡ 058
Nighttime isn't clear to me
I find nothing near to me
Don't know what to do
But I come to

When it's early in the morning
Very, very early without warning
I can feel a newly formed vibration
Sneaking up on me again
There's a sunbird on my pillow
And I can see the funny weeping willow
I can see the sun, You're on your way
You'll be coming home

They took the whole Cherokee Nation
And put us on this reservation
Took away our ways of life
The tomahawk and the bow and knife

They took away our native tongue
And taught their English to our young
And all the beads we made by hand
Are nowadays made in Japan

Cherokee people, Cherokee tribe
So proud to live, so proud to die

They took the whole Indian Nation
And locked us on this reservation
And though I wear a shirt and tie
Im still a red man deep inside

Cherokee people, Cherokee tribe
So proud to live, so proud to die

But maybe someday when they learn
Cherokee Nation will return
Will return
Will return
Will return
Will return
