Midnight Not a sound from the pavement Has the moon lost her memory She is smiling alone In the lamplight The withered leaves collect at my feet And the wind begins to moan Memory, all alone in the moonlight I can dream of the old days Life was beautiful then I remember the time I knew what happiness was Let the memory live again Every street lamp seems to beat A fatalistic warning Someone mutters and the street lamp sputters Soon it will be morning Daylight I must wait for the sunrise I must think of a new life and I mustn't give in When the dawn comes Tonight will be a memory too And a new day will begin Burnt out ends of smoky days The stale court smell of morning A street lamp dies Another night is over Another day is dawning Touch me, It is so easy to leave me All alone with the memory Of my days in the sun If you'll touch me, You'll understand what happiness is Look, a new day has begun... |

Da da da da da I don't want to walk without you, Baby Walk without my arm about you, Baby I thought the day you left me behind I'd take a stroll and get you right off my mind But now I find that I don't want to walk without the sunshine Why'd you have to turn off all that sunshine? Oh, Baby, please come back or you'll break my heart for me 'Cause I don't want to walk without you No, siree All our friends keep knocking at the door They've asked me out a hundred times or more But all I say is, "Leave me in the gloom" And here I stay within my lonely room 'Cause... I don't want to walk without you, Baby Walk without my arm about you, Baby I thought the day you left me behind I'd take a stroll and get you right off my mind But now I find that I don't want to walk without the sunshine Why'd you have to turn off all that sunshine?

It takes that one voice Just one voice singing in the darkness All it takes is one voice Shouting out and let it ring Just one voice It takes that one voice And every one will sing |

We walked to the sea. Just my father and me.
아버지와 둘이서 바다로 걸어갔지. And the dogs played around on the sand. 백사장에서는 개들이 뛰어놀고 있었어. Winter cold cut the air. Hangin’ still everywhere Dressed in gray, 바람을 에는 듯한 겨울의 추위가 어두워진 주위에 가득했을 때 did he say. Hold my hand. 아버지가 말했지. ″내 손을 잡으렴″ I said, love’s easier when it’s far away. 나는 말했어. ″사랑은 멀리 있을 때 더 잘할 수 있는 거예요.″ We sat and watched a distant light. 우리는 나란히 앉아 멀리 있는 등대 불빛을 바라보았지. We’re two ships that pass in the night. 우리는 밤을 항해하는 두 척의 배 We both smile and we say it’s alright. 우린 웃으며 말했지. ″괜찮아.″라고. We’re still here. It’s just that we’re out of sight. 우린 아직 여기 있는 거야. 다만 서로 볼 수 없을 뿐 Like those ships that pass in the night. 밤을 지나는 저 배들처럼 말야. There’s a boat on the line Where the sea meets the sky. 수평선에 떠 있는 한 척의 배 There’s another that rides far behind. 또 그 뒤에 멀리 있는 다른 한 척 And it seems you and I are like strangers 우린 서로 낯선 사람들 같아 A wide ways apart as we drift on through time. 오랜 시간 험한 뱃길을 지나 온 것처럼. He said, it’s harder now, we’re far away. We only read you when you write. 아버지는 말했어. ″멀리 있으니까 더 힘들구나. 우린 오직 네 편지밖엔 읽을 수 없잖니.″ We’re two ships that pass in the night. 우리는 밤을 지나는 두 척의 배 And we smile when we say it’s alright. 우리는 웃으며 말했지. ″괜찮아.″ We’re still here. It’s just that we’re out of sight. 우린 아직 여기 있는 거야. 다만 서로 볼 수 없을 뿐 Like those ships that pass in the night. 밤을 지나는 저 배들처럼. We’re just ships that pass in the night. And we smile when we say it’s alright. We’re still here. It’s just that we’re out of sight. Like those ships that pass in the night. |

Hand in his hands through the park
All afternoon A fine day to fly balloons or tell him a story Hand in his hand to wonder Till day is done Sunday father and son Sundays are theirs to explore Alone by law One day to keep the two from turning to strangers, One to know the answers Be firm, be fun Sunday father and son The father weaves through the weekend streets Sunday alone, Monday comin'on He leaves the child by a modest home That they share no more With the woman who waits indoors Till she knows he's gone Where are the words or the games A place to go Someway to let him know you want to be with him Somehow it's always ending Just half begun Sunday father and son Sunday father and son |

Drowning in a river of her own tears Crying for a man who's name she can't remember Cause it's been too many years Made up her mind The day he left her behind She's never find a man like hm again So she closed the door And never looked anymore So of course she's been alone since then She gave in to the blues So you know she just had to lose Soon as she gave in to the blues There's a man who won't try to ask her why He says only fools even play the game Never had the breaks, the money that it takes So he says he's not to blame Started to drink THe day he started to think THe world was out to bring him down for good So he closed the door And drank a little bit more And went down just like they said he would He gave in to the blues So you know he just had to lose Soon as he gave in to the blues They gave in to the blues So you know they just had to lose Soon as they gave in to the blues No don't you give in to the blues No, no don't you give in to the blues No don't you give in Don't you give in Don't you give up DOn't you give out Dont' you give in to the blues No, no don't you give in to the blues |

When nights are long
I think of you Could you be blue as blue as I am When lovers pass do you feel blue And wish you knew where went wrong I'd like to call but I'm afraid to find That I'm not on your mind all night long When sundays come what gets you through Are you still glad you're free or are you blue like me When nights are long it seems so long so very long I think of you my heart is aching and I'm oh so blue Could you be blue as blue as those eyes of yours As blue as I am my sweet sweet baby When lovers pass and now that spring is here Do you feel blue what'll I do And wish you knew without you Where we went wrong without you to walk with and talk with I'd like to call I'm starin at the phone But I'm afraid I'll find with the radio for company That I'm not on your mind you'd never guess All night long they're playin' When sundays come sometimes I wonder What gets you through what gets me through Are you still glad you're free Or are you blue like me Blue like me |

What good is candlelight Each lonely day Becomes a sleepless night No one is there to share the rising dawn And so it fades away when love is gone When love is gone Life's just a hollow shell The stars don't shine The moon has lost its spell That old familiar ache that makes the night so long just seems to linger on when love is gone When love is gone There's just the memories An empty heart where love once used to be Those lonely blues refuse to let you carry on It's just that way each day when love is gone |

Looking just the same as you did last time I touched you And here I am, Close to getting tangled up inside the thought of you Do you love him As much as I love her And will that love be strong When old feelings start to stir Looks like we made it Left each other all the way To another love Looks like we made it Or I thought so till today Until you were there, everywhere And all I could taste was love the way we made it Loves so strange Playing hide and seek with hearts and always hurting And we′re the fools Standing close enough to touch those burning memories And if I hold you for the sake of all those times Love made us lose our minds Could I ever let you go Oh no we made it Left each other all the way To another love Looks like we made it Or I thought so till today Until you were there, everywhere And all I could taste was love the way we made it. Ohhhhhh, we made it Looks like we made it, Left each other all the way To another love Looks like we made it, Or I thought so till today Until you were there, everywhere And all I could taste was love the way we made it Looks like we made it Oh Babe, we made it |

When my heart (city rhythm) is torn apart (oo) By the love I wish I had Well, I spend my (city rhythm) nights in the city's lights (oo) And things don't seem so bad Ya know the movement seems to soothe me And the tempo takes control And I lose my blues When the New York City rhythm fills my soul It's the New York City rhythm runnin' though life (city rhythm) The poundin' beat of the city streets that keeps my dreams alive I'm lost (I'm lost), I'm found (I'm found) I'm up (I'm up), I'm down, (I'm down) but somehow I survive It's got to be the New York City rhythm in my life Oh, it's got to be the New York City rhythm in my life, in my life (City rhythm, oo, city rhythm, oo, city rhythm, oo, city rhythm, oo) When I'm out (city rhythm) for love or sin (oo) Oh, it's good to be in town In the funky (city rhythm) dives on the old west side (oo) There's always somethin' goin' down Yes, I live my life with strangers And the danger's always there But when I hit Broadway and it's time to play Ya know that I don't care It's the New York City rhythm runnin' thru' my life (city rhythm) The poundin' beat of the city streets that keeps my dreams alive I'm lost (I'm lost), I'm found (I'm found) I'm up (I'm up), I'm down, (I'm down) but somehow I survive It's got to be the New York City rhythm in my life Oh, it's got to be the New York City rhythm in my life, in my life (City rhythm, oo, city rhythm) < Latin-style instrumental interlude backed with (Nueva York, Nueva York, Nueva York, Nueva York, Nueva York, Nueva York, Nueva York, Nueva York, Nueva York, Nueva York, Nueva York, Nueva York Ooh!)> (City rhythm, oo, city rhythm, oo) and more scat to end |

Christy wants a millionaire, a miracle in the rain
Everybody's lookin' to find their heaven, never come back again People keep searchin' up and down Joinin' in the latest thing And I run around lookin' for love Waitin' for bells to ring Riders to the stars We are flyin', we are fallin' And I can see the clouds rollin' by Riders to the stars We are sailin', we are soarin' And all we can do is try We are riders to the stars We are riders to the stars Billy wants a fancy car, says it's just what he needs Folks into showin', just what they're blowin' Followin' foolish leads And Christy wants to find her millionaire, her miracle in the rain And I lift my head right up to the sun Never look down again Riders to the stars We are flyin', we are fallin' And I can see the clouds rollin' by Riders to the stars We are sailin', we are soarin' And all we can do is try We are riders to the stars We are riders to the stars Some folks have money, and others survive God knows, it's not easy just bein' alive The dreamer dreams on, and dreams never die Long as we try, long as we try Riders to the stars We are flyin', we are fallin' And I can see the clouds rollin' by Riders to the stars We are sailin', we are soarin' And all we can do is try We are riders to the stars We are riders to the stars |

I am a studio musician,
We've never met, But you know me well. I am the English horn, Who plays the poignant counterline Upon the song you heard While making love in some hotel. I am a part of you, I've never tried for fame, You'll never know my name. I am the strings that enter softly, Or three guitars That glitter gold. I am the thousand trumpet lines That were an afterthought, Intended as a way To get a dying record sold. I never ride the road, I never play around, I play what they set down. I'm a working musician, Living from week to week, I'm the voice through which empty men try to speak. A studio musician, Blowin' the chance I seek. And when the woodwind cushion rises, I start to dream, On a low brass bed, But I awake to horns, The drummer calls to me, We're up to letter D. I'm a man of the moment, Pop is my stock and trade, Singles, jingles, and demos, Conveniently made. A studio musician, Whose music will die unplayed. A studio musician, Whose music could have died unplayed. |

This one will never sell
They'll never understand I don't even sing it well I try but I just can't But I sing it every night And I fight to keep it in Cause, this one's for you This one's for you I've done a hundred songs From fantasies to lies This one's so real for me That I'm the one who cries And I sing it every night And I fight to hide the tears Cause this one's for you This one's for you This one's for you wherever you are To say that nothings been the same Since we've been apart This one's for all the love we once knew Like everything else I have This one's for you, ohhhhh I've got it all it seems For all it means to me But I sing of things I miss And things that used to be And I wonder ever night If you might just miss me too And I sing for you, I sing for you This one's for you wherever I go To say the things I should have said Things that you should know This one's to say that all I can do Is hope that you will hear me sing Cause this ones' for you This one's for you, wherever you are To say that nothings been the same Since we've been apart This one's for all the love we once knew Like everything else I have this ones for you.... |

Last night, I waved goodbye
now it seems years, I′m back in the city, where nothing is clear, and thoughts of me, holding you, bringing us near, and tell me; When will our eyes meet, when can I touch you, when will this strong yearning end, and when will I hold you again. Time in New England took me away, to long rocky beaches, and you, by the bay, we started a story who′s end must now wait and tell me; When will our eyes meet, when can I touch you, when will this strong yearning end, and when can I hold you again. I feel the change comin′ I feel the wind blow, I feel brave and darin′ I feel my blood flow, With you I can bring out all the love that I have, With you...there′s a heaven so earth ain′t so bad, and tell me. When will our eyes meet, when can I touch you, when will this string yearning end, and when can I hold you again.again |

Why don't we live together
Only the two of us, we'll learn to trust Don't have to say forever 'Cause we know the rain could start and break our hearts But we'll never find the future if we hesitate We'll spend our life waiting Why don't we live together Taking it day by day we'll find a way To build us a dream that's better And still have our wings to fly if love should die Can't spend our life rehearsing all these lines of love It's time to raise the curtain Why don't we live together whether loves lives or dies At least we know we tried We've both been burned before But now we know this love is sure And there'll be no more sorrow This love is burnin' bright it lights up tomorrow Why don't we live together Takin' life's rocky ride Side by side Sailin' thru stormy weather Searchin' for sunny skies with open eyes Sharin' the tears and the laughter is the only way We'll find the love we're after Why don't we live together Whether love lives or dies At least we'll know we tried |

See I flew in from the West Coast
Just the other day. Yes, I flew in from the West Coast and we circled J.F.K. The movie ended and I pulled up the shade, looked out the window while the Muzak played. But in my head I'm singin', singin' the Brooklyn Blues. Oh, yea. When you're growin' up in Brooklyn the Bridge is like a friend. Said when you're growin' up in Brooklyn that Bridge is sure your friend. Because that river, looks a hundred miles wide when all your dreams are on the other side, and that can start you singin' singin' the Brooklyn Blues. Oh, yea. Now I've got myself some money a mansion in Bel-aire. Yes I've spent a lot of money and I"ve been most everywhere. But still there's somethin' missin' I"ve got to find, a part of me I must've left behind, that makes a guy start feelin', feelin' those Brooklyn Blues. My my I've sung love songs to a princess more than once or twice. I've sung rock 'n' roll in Paris, jazz in paradise. But there's a song of mine I couldn't have sung, a tune I started back when I was young. Now I've come home to finish, finish my Brooklyn Blues My Brooklyn Blues |

Love slips away and we move on
Night becomes the dawn Words tear us up just like a storm Now love is gone leaving us strangers The morning sky fills with rain Nothing feels the same Time leaves me remembering dreams And places we've been And how it all changes Once when you were mine We lived within a world all our own Once when you were mine Once there was a time Love slips away and we move on |

One more time
As we lie by the firelight Let me hold you Til you have to go away Don't let it end Let me pretend you'll stay One more thrill While we're still in our solitude One more moment I can touch you tenderly Can this be real? Doesn't it feel like a fantasy? When the night moves on I'm afraid you'll be gone With no reason or rhyme So if I borrow A bit of tomorrow Is that such a crime? Why can't we make believe That the evening has just begun Close your eyes to the rising sun And hold me one more time When the night moves on I'm afraid you'll be gone With no reason or rhyme So if I borrow A bit of tomorrow Is that such a crime? Why can't we make believe That the evening has just begun Close your eyes to the rising sun And hold me one more time |

And now the purple dusk of twilight time
Steals across the meadows of my heart High up in the skys the little stars climb Always reminding me that we're apart You wandered down the lane and far away Leaving me a song that will not die Love is now the stardust of yesterday The music of the years gone by Sometimes I wonder why I spend The lonely night dreaming of a song The melody haunts my reverie And I am once again with you When our love was new And each kiss an inspiration But that was long ago Now my consolation is in the stardust of a song Beside a garden wall When stars are bright you are in my arms The nightingale tells his fairy tale Of paradise where roses grew Though I dream in vain In my heart it will remain My stardust melody The memory of love's refrain Though I dream in vain In my heart it will remain My stardust melody The memory of love's refrain |

Pardon me miss, but I've never done this
With a real live girl What could be harmful in holding an armful Of real live girl? Pardon me if your affectionate squeeze Fogs up my goggles and buckles my knees I'm simply drowned in the sound And the sight and the scent And the feel of a real live girl Nothing can beat getting swept off your feet By a real live girl Dreams in your bunk don't compare with a hunk Of a real live girl. Girls were too girlish was once my belief What a reversal and what a relief! I'll take the flowering hat and the towering heel And the squeal of a real live girl. I've seen photographs and facsimiles That have set my heart off in a whirl But I'd overlook everyone in the book For a real live girl Take your Venetian or Roman or Grecian Ideal live girl. Go be a holdout for Helen of Troy. I am a healthy American boy, And I'd rather gape at the dear Little shape of the stern And the keel of a real live, Full-time vocational, all-operational girl |

And I have him with me always There's a kid inside Walking down old high school hallways Where's a kid inside At a desk, at a dance, in the halls, in the showers There's a kid inside to this very day And he makes a try for that high pop fly That I fumbled one September And he makes a fuss over some A+ That I shouldn't still remember And he goes along Getting hurt, getting mad, fighting fights that are over And unless I'm strong All my senses are carried away I can feel my hand, my trembling hand On Michelle's angora sweater I can hear my band, that awful band Only now it sounds much better I can see the kid, the kid I used to be On the stage, on the field, on the lunch-line I can feel him tugging at me Every time I think I don't care, I blink And he's there, he's there again Fighting ancient wrongs Humming old hit songs in my head Singing come along, come along Come along for the ride To a time and place I could not forget if I tried And I never know, when the breeze'll blow With a rush of old sensation Why the kid should wake And my heart should ache Everytime I smell carnations Something rings the bell Anything at all All it takes is a slam of a locker Or the switch from summer or fall A change of season seems barely reason But there he goes, he's there again Fighting ancient wrongs Humming old hit songs in my head Singing come along, come along Come along for the ride To a time and place I could not forget if I tried There he goes again Hummin' his songs He's there again There's a kid inside Hummin' his songs He's there again There's a kid inside |

It seems we stood here
And talked like this before We look at each other In the same old way But I can't remember Where or when The clothes you're wearing Are the clothes you wore The smile you're smiling You where smiling then I can't remember where or when Some things that happened for the first time Seem to be happening again And so it seems that we have met before And laughed before and loved before But who knows where or when Some things that happened for the first time Seem to be happening again And so it seems that we have met before And laughed before and loved before But who knows where or when |

On the road so long and lonely
Can't believe I'm headed home to stay God I miss my one and only A little travelling music, please Seems we're always seperating Still she doesn't let me lose my way Home is anywhere she's waiting A little travelling music, please I may forget how much I care But once I've left her laughter Two and three days after I'm aware how much I miss her there This time I'll stay home forever Hold her close and turn the world away Even if it's not forever It it'll keep me from unravelling A little travelling music, please Two and three days after I'm aware how much I miss her there This time I'll stay home forever Hold her close and turn the world away Even if it's not forever She's going to keep me from unravelling A little travelling music, please A little travelling music, please |

All the time I thought. There's only me.
Crazy in a way that no one else could be. I would have given everything I own, If someone would have said, you're not alone. All the time I thought, that I was wrong. Wanting to be me, but needing to belong. If I had just believed in all I had. If someone would have said, you're not so bad. All the time, all the wasted time. All the years, waiting for a sign. To think I had it all. All the time. All the time I thought. There's only me. Crazy in a way that no one else could be. I can't believe that you were somewhere too. Thinking all the time there's only you. All the time, all the wasted time. All the years, waiting for a sign. To think I had it all. All the time. |

Disconnected, Solitary
Standing all alone Complicated, arbitrary My feeling's still don't feel my own Now you've changed your mind You reach out once again But how am I to tell you I'm not who I was, back then That was another life Simply another life And baby it's all gone Don't you see the past is past That some things just aren't made to last No point in holding on To another life Desolated, disbelieving I watched you walk away You made your mind up You didn't need me No words could ever make you want to stay Now I hear you tell me My heart's as hard as steel But I would never hurt you Just to show you how, it feels That was another life Simply another life And baby it's all gone Don't you see the past is past And some things just aren't made to last No point in holding on To another life (Close your eyes) Close your eyes Let it rest Tell me you will be ok You've got to look ahead It's for the best Let me slip away That was another life Simply another life And baby it's all gone Don't you see the past is past That some things just aren't made to last No point in holding on To another life Let me slip away |

See I flew in from the West Coast
Just the other day. Yes, I flew in from the West Coast And we circled J.F.K. The movie ended and I pulled up the shade, Looked out the window while the Muzak played. But in my head I′m singin′, Singin′ the Brooklyn Blues. Oh, yea. When you′re growin′ up in Brooklyn The Bridge is like a friend. Said when you′re growin′ up in Brooklyn That Bridge is sure your friend. Because that river, looks a hundred miles wide When all your dreams are on the other side, And that can start you singin′ Singin′ the Brooklyn Blues. Oh, yea. Now I′ve got myself some money A mansion in Bel-aire. Yes I′ve spent a lot of money And I″ve been most everywhere. But still there′s somethin′ missin′ I″ve got to find, A part of me I must′ve left behind, That makes a guy start feelin′, Feelin′ those Brooklyn Blues. My my I′ve sung love songs to a princess More than once or twice. I′ve sung rock ′n′ roll in Paris, Jazz in paradise. But there′s a song of mine I couldn′t have sung, A tune I started back when I was young. Now I′ve come home to finish, Finish my Brooklyn Blues My Brooklyn Blues |

HOW DO I STOP LOVING YOU
WRITERS ARTIE BUTLER, NORMAN MARTIN I'm trying so hard to forget you. And leave the life we had behind. And there are times I feel the day has come, I've chased you from my mind. But I'm afraid there's always something, That sets me back and makes me see. You're more than just a memory in the past, You're still a part of me. So how do I stop loving you? Forget things that we used to do? Forget all the dreams that we shared? And how my life was knowing you cared? Why do I end up where I start, each time I try? Just tell me how I can forget, So I can say goodbye... I'm tired of all the lonely evenings, And all the many times I've cried. I'm tired of wondering what I might have done to keep you by my side. And reaching out across your pillow, I start remembering you're gone. And though I know that we can never be, The pain in me goes on. So how do I stop loving you? Forget things that we used to do? Forget all the dreams that we shared, And how my life was knowing you cared? Why do I end up where I start, each time I try? Just tell me how I can forget, So I can say goodbye... So how do I stop loving you? Please tell me why... I find it so hard to forget. And hard to say... Goodbye. Goodbye... |

Da da da da da
Da da da da da I don't want to walk without you, Baby Walk without my arm about you, Baby I thought the day you left me behind I'd take a stroll and get you right off my mind But now I find that I don't want to walk without the sunshine Why'd you have to turn off all that sunshine? Oh, Baby, please come back or you'll break my heart for me 'Cause I don't want to walk without you No, siree All our friends keep knocking at the door They've asked me out a hundred times or more But all I say is, "Leave me in the gloom" And here I stay within my lonely room 'Cause...

We dreamers have our ways
Of facing rainy days And somehow we survive We keep the feelings warm Protect them from the storm Until our time arrives Then one day the sun appears And we come shining through those lonely years I made it through the rain I kept my world protected I made it throught the rain I kept my point of view I made it through the rain And found myself respected By the others who Got rained on too And made it through When friends are hard to find And life seems so unkind Sometimes you feel afraid Just aim beyond the clouds And rise above the crowds And start your own parade ′Cause when I chased my fears away That′s when I knew that I could finally say I made it through the rain I kept my world protected I made it throught the rain I kept my point of view I made it through the rain And found myself respected By the others who Got rained on too And made it through |

I wanna be somebody's baby
I don't want a child of my own I was the one who was always strong And I was always the one left alone I was the one understandin' And lettin' the other go free Now I wanna be somebody's baby Let somebody worry 'bout me Who,no, no, no more a shoulder to cry on My shoulders are wet to the bone No, no, no more a friend to rely on I'm looking for friends of my own No more a kindly advisor And no more a worshipping fan I'm younger and weaker and wiser With a brand new strategy planned I wanna be somebody's baby I don't want a child of my own Who, I was the one who was always strong And I was always the one left alone I was the one understandin' And lettin' the other go free Right now I wanna be somebody's baby Let somebody worry 'bout me I wanna be mothered and fathered And sistered and brothered It's gonna be gruesome and grand I swear I'll keep you worried and sweatin' And busy and bothered You'll run around wringin' your hands I'll call you at three in the mornin' Wailin' my woes to the sky I'll slip out of sight without warnin' And return with a gleam in my eye I wanna be somebody's baby I don't want a child of my own Who, I was the one who was always strong And I was always the one left alone I was the one understandin' And lettin' the other go free Right now I wanna be somebody's baby Let somebody worry 'bout me |
