They're writing songs of love, but not for me A lucky star's above, but not for me With love to lead the way, I've found more clouds are grey Than any Russian play could guarantee
I was a fool to fall and get that way Heigh ho, alas, and also lack-a-day Although I can't dismiss the memory of her kiss I guess she's not for me
It all began so well, but what an end This is the time a feller needs a friend When every happy plot ends with a marriage knot And there's no knot for me
WE GOT IT TOGETHER DID'NT WE NOBODY BUT YOU AND ME WE GOT IT TOGETHER BABY
MY FIRST, MY LAST, MY EVERYTHING AND THE ANSWER TO ALL MY DREAMS YOU'RE MY SUN, MY MOON, MY GUIDING STAR MY KIND OF WONDERFUL, THAT'S WHAT YOU ARE
I KNOW THERE'S ONLY, ONLY ONE LIKE YOU THERES NO WAY THEY COULD HAVE MADE TWO YOU'RE YOU'RE ALL I'M LIVING FOR YOUR LOVE I'LL KEEP FOR EVERMORE, YOU'RE THE FIRST MY LAST MY EVERYTHING

YOU'RE MY REALITY YET I'M LOST IN A DREAM YOU'RE THE FIRST MY LAST MY EVERYTHING
*** INSTRUMENTAL ***
I KNOW THERE'S ONLY, ONLY ONE LIKE YOU THERES NO WAY THEY COULD HAVE MADE TWO GIRL YOU'RE MY REALITY BUT I'M LOST IN A DREAM YOU'RE THE FIRST YOU'RE THE LAST MY EVERYTHING

At first I was afraid, I was petrified Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side But then I spent so many nights thinking 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, 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 will survive, hey hey
It took all the strength I had not to fall apart Kept trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart And I spent oh so many nights Just feeling 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 felt like dropping in And just expect me to be free Now I'm saving all my loving for someone who's loving me
Many girls have come to you With a line that was untrue And you just passed them by
And now your innocent to whim And their lies don't mean a thing Why don't you let me drive
I don't need a diamond ring Cause you prove your love to me when you say Sweet and mellow
La la la la la la la la la means I love you La la la la la la la la la means I love you
Never thought I'd meet a boy Who could bring me so much joy You are the one for me
But let me take you in my arms Surround you with my charms I'm sure that you will see
The things that I'm saying are true This is the way that I explain them you Listen to me
La la la la la la la la la means I love you La la la la la la la la la means I love you The things that I'm saying are true Now I'd bet to spend my whole life through Loving you Can't you hear me
La la la la la la la la la means I love you La la la la la la la la la means I love you
La la la la la la la la la means I love you La la la la la la la la la means I love you
I remember when rock was young Me and Suzie had so much fun holding hands and skimming stones Had an old gold Chevy and a place of my own But the biggest kick I ever got was doing a thing called the Crocodile Rock While the other kids were Rocking Round the Clock we were hopping and bopping to the Crocodile Rock
*Well Crocodile Rocking is something shocking when your feet just can't keep still I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will Oh Lawdy mama those Friday nights when Suzie wore her dresses tight and the Crocodile Rocking was out of sight
But the years went by and the rock just died Suzie went and left us for some foreign guy Long nights crying by the record machine dreaming of my Chevy and my old blue jeans But they'll never kill the thrills we've got burning up to the Crocodile Rock Learning fast as the weeks went past we really thought the Crocodile Rock would last

I saw my love walking down the aisle And as he passed me by He turned and gave me a smile Then, the preacher, then the preacher The preacher joined their hands And all the people, all the people began to stand When I shouted, "you know it should have been me" (Instead of her walking with you)
You are leaving me stranded You know that it should have been me baby Oh baby gettin' ready to marry you Darlin' darlin' darlin' You made a promise that we would never part Then you turned around and broke my little heart Now you're standing there saying I do Holding hands with somebody new You know that it should have been me (I can't stand it) Instead of her standing by you You know that it should have been me It should have been me (Baby don't do it) Then the preacher oh yeah the preacher asked That there be silence please
If anybody objects to this wedding Speak now or forever or forever hold your peace Thin I shouted, "It should have been me" You know that it should have been me Don't you know that it should have been me You know that it should have been me I've been faithful to you baby, baby, baby You were leaving me stranded
The full moon's glowing Blood red in the sky It hangs like fire On this winter's night I sit on feelings That hang in suspense Nothing in my life makes sense A question mark hangs with the stars up above As I'm driving home to the one that I love Sometimes I can't see the trees for the wood Loving you tonight feels good The moonlight changes From red into white It sits on tree tops Asleep for the night I see the signpost The road slowly bends Nothing in my life makes sense A flashing tail light speeds across the sky My head's cooking trouble as thoughts seem to fry The last temptation was misunderstood Loving you tonight feels good
I'm faced with the ultimate truth What if I see things don't improve I know they could Loving you tonight feels good
The sun is rising There's mist all around She sleeps beside me And I feel so proud Am I in heaven With her by my side This is how love feels tonight
Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone, Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone, Silence the pianos and with muffled drum Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come.
Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead Scribbling on the sky the message He is Dead. Put crepe bows round the white necks of the public doves, Let the traffic policemen wear black cotton gloves.
He was my North, my South, my East and West, My working week and my Sunday rest, My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song; I thought that love would last forever: I was wrong.
The stars are not wanted now; put out every one, Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun, Pour away the ocean and sweep up the woods; For nothing now can ever come to any good.
No earthly church has ever blessed our union No state has ever granted us permission No family bond has ever made us two No company has ever earned commission
No debt was paid no dowry to be gained No treaty over border land or power No semblance of the world outside remained To stain the beauty of this nuptial hour
The secret marriage vow is never spoken The secret marriage can never be broken
No flowers on the altar No white veil in your hair No maiden dress to alter No bible oath to swear
The secret marriage vow is never spoken The secret marriage can never be broken
*Goin' to the chapel and we're Gonna get married Goin' to the chapel and we're Gonna get married Gee, I really love you and we're Gonna get married Goin' to the chapel of love
Spring is here The sky is blue (whoa-whoa-whoa) Birds all sing As if they knew Today's the day We'll say I do And we'll never be lonely anymore Because we're
*Repeat
Bells will ring The sun will shine (whoa-whoa-whoa) I will be hers and she'll be mine We'll love until The end of time And we'll never be lonely anymore Because we're
