You tell me that you're leavin',
I can't believe it's true! Girl, there's just no livin' without you. Don't take your love away from me. Don't you leave my heart in misery. 'Cause if you go, then I'll be blue, breakin' up is hard to do. Remember when you held me tight, and you kissed me all through the night. Think of all that we been through, and breakin' up is hard to do. They say that breakin' up is hard to do; now I know, I know that it's true. Don't say that this is the end. Instead of breakin' up I wish that we were makin' up again. I beg of you don't say goodbye; can't we give our love just one more try? Come on baby, let's start anew, breakin' up is hard to do. |

I'll never let you see
The way my broken heart is hurting me I've got my pride and I know how to hide all my sorrow and pain I'll do my crying in the rain If I wait for cloudy skies You won't know the rain from the tears in my eyes You'll never know that I still love you so though the heartaches remain I'll do my crying in the rain Raindrops fallin' from heaven Could never wash away my misery But since we're not together I look for stormy weather To hide these tears I hope you'll never see Crying, crying in the rain Some day when my cryin's done I'm gonna wear a smile and walk in the sun I may be a fool, but til then darling You'll never see me complain I'll do my crying in the rain |

Lift me, won't you lift me above the old routine;
Make it nice, play it clean jazzman. When the jazzman's testifyin' a faithless man believes he can sing you into paradise or bring you to your knees. It's a gospel kind of feelin', a touch of Georgia slide, a song of pure revival and a style that's sanctified. Jazzman take my blues away; make my pain the same as yours with every change you play. Jazzman, oh jazzman. When the jazzman's signifyin', and the band is windin' low. It's the late night side of morning in the darkness of his soul. He can fill a room with sadness as he fills his horn with tears. He can cry like a fallen angel when risin' time is near. Jazzman take my blues away; make my pain the same as yours with every change you play. Oh lift me, won't you lift me with ev'ry turn around. Play it sweetly, take me down, oh jazzman. |

CHANGE IN MIND, CHANGE OF HEART
by Carole King & David Palmer You and I We ought to try to face the fact The things we thought had value They've all been taken back We've been losing track of time But time's no easy mark I can see you've got a change in mind But what we need is a change of heart I can see you've got a change in mind But what we need is a change of heart You and me It seems that we've been holding out The things that once held meaning We're no longer sure about We've been moving down the line Losing what time we've got And since you say you've had a change in mind Why don't you try a little change of heart I can see you've got a change in mind But what we need is a change of heart Now I'm not asking anymore of you Than I ask of myself Oh, but when I say we need a new approach Well, I don't mean to someone else Change, they say It's the only way we grow Oh, but the change we're showing Let me tell you I just don't know Seems to me that we could find some other way to start Beginning with a change, a change in mind And ending with a change, a change of heart Oh, begin it with a change, a change in mind But end it with a change, a change of heart |

GROWING AWAY FROM ME
by Carole King You've been my life to me My very soul and my heart But lately something's come over you And it's tearing me apart CHORUS: Darlin' I feel you growing away from me More and more each day Whatever you want me to be I'll be If it keeps you from growing away from me Even whe you say you love me The feeling's no longer there I know there's somebody else And it's more than I can bear CHORUS Believe me, I would let you go if I could But I don't know if it's worse thing being lonely Than having you here in body only It's no use pretending When the love you used to feel is gone Yet even though I'm losing you I can't help tryin' to hold on CHORUS I feel you Growing away from me |

Music is playing inside my head
Over and over and over again My friend, there's no end to the music... Ah, summer is over But the music keeps playing And won't let the cold get me down Pictures are forming inside my brain Soon with the colors they'll rain together and grow Then don't you know, don't you know there'll be music... Ah, it's not always easy But the music keeps playing And won't let the world get me down. |

MY LOVIN' EYES
by Carole King & David Palmer It's hard enough to hear you Express your sympathy But it's harder still to feel the things My eyes refuse to see Oh, my lovin' eyes When you look upon them darlin' like you do You bring these tears into my lovin' eyes I watch you take my self respect Accepting each excuse When I've never seen the reason For your moods or abuse Oh, my lovin' eyes They hold you like the heaven holds the sun But look what you've done to my lovin' eyes Like a man whose way is righteous His faith in life resigned I'm a child whose eyes are sightless And my faith in you is truly blind It's sad to think of living As pain that we must feel But it's sadder still to think of love As something you conceal Oh, my lovin' eyes When you look upon them darlin' like you do You bring these tears into my lovin' eyes |

Like some nightbird homeward winging
He seeks that shelteredness Like the sailor's lost horizon He needs some place to rest The songs that he's been singing No longer make much sense And those strangers' cold perceptions They've killed his confidence Nightingale She sails away upon a sea of song Nightingale She serenades his lonely, lonely life along When his tired voice is broken His golden hope is gone She makes a loss so simple-longing somehow not so wrong Nightingale He was strong but he was taken By the thought of his success Those spotlight shadows how they lured him And took him like all the rest But that old dream don't look good now No it don't seem quite the same He needs to hear a tender word Won't you sing him home again Nightingale She sails away upon a sea of songs Nightingale She serenades his lonely, lonely life along When his strength is slowly going His pride is all but gone She makes a foolish dreamer listen To one last song Nightingale Sing sweet nightingale |
