Aretha Franklin - Greatest Hits [compilation] (2009) by Aretha Franklin (보컬) on maniadb.com

You're walkin' along the street, or you're at a party,
Or else you're alone and then you suddenly dig,
You're looking' in someone's eyes, you suddenly realize
That this could be the start of something big.

You're lunching at twenty-one and watchin' your diet,
Declining a charlotte russe, accepting a fig,
When out of a clear blue sky, it's suddenly gal and guy,
And this could be the start of something big.

There's no controlling the unrolling of your fate, my friend,
Who knows what's written in the magic book.
But when a lover you discover at the gate my friend,
Invite her in without a second look.

You're up in an aeroplane or dining at sardi's,
Or lying at malibu alone on the sand,
You suddenly hear a bell, and right away you can tell
That this could be the start of something grand.

This could be the start of something very big,
Why don't you play your part?
Please give your heart to me....and see.
This could be the start of something wonderful,
Why don't you take a chance?
Just try romance with me....and see.

Your watchin' the sun come up and countin' your money,
Or else in a dim cafe you're ordering wine,
Then suddenly there he is, and you wanna be where he is,
And this must be the start of something...
This could be the heart of something...
This could be the start of something big.

What a difference a day made
Twenty-four little hours
Brought the sun and the flowers
Where there used to be rain

My yesterday was blue, dear
Today I'm part of you, dear
My lonely nights are through, dear
Since you said you were mine

What a difference a day makes
There's a rainbow before me
Skies above can't be stormy
Since that moment of bliss, that thrilling kiss

It's heaven when you find romance on your menu
What a difference a day made
And the difference is you

What a difference a day makes
There's a rainbow before me
Skies above can't be stormy
Since that moment of bliss, that thrilling kiss

It's heaven when you find romance on your menu
What a difference a day made
And the difference is you

Look at me,
I'm as helpless as a kitten up a tree
and I feel like I'm clinging to a cloud
I can't undestand
I got misty just holding your hand
Walk my way
and a thousand violins begin to play
or it might be the sound of your hello
that music I hear,
I get misty the moment you're near
You can say that you're leading me on
But it's just what I want you to do
Don't you notice how hopeless I'm lost
That's why I'm following you
On my own, world I wander through
This wonderland alone
Never knowing
My right foot from my left
My hat from my glove,
I'm too misty and too much in love

On my own, world I wander through
This wonderland alone
Never knowing
My right foot from my left
My hat from my glove,
I'm too misty and too much in love

Love for Sale!
Advertising young love for sale
Who would like to pay the price for a trip to Paradise?
Love for Sale!
Who will buy?
Who would like to sample my supply?
Who would like to climb the stairs?
Who would like to try my wares?
Love for Sale!
Let the poets fight for love in their childish ways
I know every type of love better far than they
If you want the thrill of love
I've been through the mill of love
Old love
New love
Everything but true love!
Love for Sale

(b. holiday/a. herzog, jr.)

Them that's God shall get
Them that's not shall lose
So the Bible says
And it still is news

Momma may have
Poppa may have
But God bless the child
That's got his own
That's got his own

Yeah, the strong gets more
While the weak ones fade
Empty pockets don't
Ever make the grade

Momma may have
Poppa may have

But God bless the child
That's got his own
That's got his own

Money, you've got lots of friends
Crowdin' round the door
When it's gone and
Spendin' ends


Rich realations give
A crust of bread and such
You can help yourself
But don't take too much

Momma may have
Poppa may have
But God bless the child
That's got his own
That's got his own

If you should loo-oo-se me,
Oh, yeah, you'll lose a good thing.
If you should loo-oo-se me,
Oh, yeah, you'll lose a good thing.

You know I love you,
Do anything for you.
Just don't mistreat me,
An I'll be good to you.
'Cause if you should loo-oo-se me,
Oh, yeah, you'll lose a good thing.

I'm givin' you one more chance,
For you to do right.
If you'll only straighen up,
We'll have a good life.
'Cause if you should loo-oo-se me,
Oh, yeah, you'll lose a good thing.

This is my last time,
Not asking any more.
If you don't do right,
I'm gonna march outta that door.
And if you don't be-lee-eeve me,
Just try it, daddy,
An you'll lose a good thing.

Just try it, daddy,
An you'll lose a good thing.

Just try it, daddy,
An you'll lose a good thing.

Yes, it's love, so much love
You are the one

I can't admit that I was wrong
Took you for granted now I'm all alone
It was so silly all the things we say
And all the words of pain runnin' through my head

If I had the chance I'd let you know
I'll tell you that I never want you to go
These tears I cry won't let me rest
Till you return

There's not one day that goes by
That I don't cry for you
There's not one day that goes by
That I'm not singing the blues

There's not one day that goes by
That I don't wish it could work
And it's tearing me up inside
Every little bit hurts

It hurts, oh baby, you know you hurt me

I can't believe that you would leave me
I always thought you would stand by me
The thought of you in another arms
Is very slowly tearing me apart

What can I do to make you see?
Everything you need is here with me
I really miss the things that we used to build
And don't you miss the way I used to love you?

There's not one day that goes by
That I don't cry for you
There's not one day that goes by
That I'm not singing the blues

There's not one day that goes by
That I don't wish it could work
And it's tearing me up inside
Every little bit hurts

You used to kiss me
You used to hold me
You used to love me
You used to touch me

All night long you made everything alright
But now you're gone and I'm all alone
Things have stayed the same
And all I'm really tryin' to say, I'm the one to blame

There's not one day that goes by
That I don't cry for you
There's not one day that goes by
That I'm not singing the blues

There's not one day that goes by
That I don't wish it could work
And it's tearing me up inside
Every little bit hurts

Unforgettable, that's what you are
Unforgettable though near or far
Like a song of love that clings to me
How the thought of you does things to me
Never before has someone been
moreUnforgettable in every way
And forever more, that's how you'll stay
That's why, darling, it's incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable
tooUnforgettable in every way
And forever more, that's how you'll stay
That's why, darling, it's incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too

If you see me walking down the street
And I start to cry each time we meet
Walk on by, walk on by

Make believe
that you don't see the tears
Just let me grieve
in private 'cause each time I see you
I break down and cry
And walk on by (don't stop)
And walk on by (don't stop)
And walk on by

I just can't get over losing you
And so if I seem broken and blue
Walk on by, walk on by

Foolish pride
Is all that I have left
So let me hide
The tears and the sadness you gave me
When you said goodbye
Walk on by
and walk on by
and walk by (don't stop)

Walk on by, walk on by
Foolish pride
Is all that I have left
So let me hide
The tears and the sadness you gave me
When you said goodbye
Walk on by (don't stop)
and walk on by (don't stop)
and walk by (don't stop)
