The things I used to like, I don't like any more, I want a lot of other things I've never had before, It's just like my mamma says, I sit around and mourn Pretending that I am so wonderful and knowing I'm adoredI'm as restless as a willow in a windstorm, I'm as jumpy as a puppet on a string, I'd say that I had spring fever, But I know it isn't spring.I'm as starry eyed and gravely discontented, Like a nightingale without a song to sing. Oh, why should I have spring fever, When it isn't even spring?I keep wishing I were somewhere else, Walking down a strange new street, Hearing words I have never never heard, From a man I've yet to meet.I'm as busy as a spider spinning daydreams, I'm as giddy as a baby on a swing, I haven't seen a crocus or a rosebud, Or a robin or a bluebird on the wing, But I feel so gay in a melancholy way, That it might as well be spring, It might as well be, might as well be, It might as well be spring. |

Willow weep for me, willow weep for me, Bend your branches green along the stream that runs to sea, Listen to my plea, listen willow weep for me, Gone my lover's dream, lovely summer dream, Gone and left me here to weep my tears into the stream, Sad as I can be - Hear me willow and weep for me.Whisper to the wind to say that love has sinned To leave my heart aching and making this moan, Murmur to the night to hide her starry light, So none will find me sighing and crying all alone, Weeping willow tree, weep in sympathy, Bend your branches down along the ground and cover me, When the shadows fall, bend oh willow and weep for me.To leave my heart aching and making this moan, So none will find me sighing and crying all alone, Weeping willow tree, weep in sympathy, Bend your branches down along the ground and cover me, When the shadows fall, bend oh willow, Bend oh willow and weep for me. |

The other woman finds time to manicure her nails,
The other woman is perfect where her rival fails. And she's never seen with pin curls in her hair - anywhere. The other woman enchants her clothes with French perfume. The other woman keeps fresh cut flowers in each room. There are never toys scattered anywhere... And when her old man comes to call, He'll find her waiting like a lonesome queen. 'cause when she's by his side it's such a change from her old routine. But... The other woman will always cry herself to sleep. The other woman will never have his love to keep. And, as years go by... The other woman will spend her real life alone. |

Love me love me love me
Say you do Let me fly away with you For my love is like the wind And wild is the windGive me more than one caress Satisfy this hungriness Let the wind blow through your heart For wild is the windYou... touch me... I hear the sound of mandolins You... kiss me... With your kiss my life begins You're spring to me All things to meDon't you know you're life itself Like a leaf clings to a tree Oh my darling, cling to me For we're creatures of the wind And wild is the wind So wild is the windWild is the wind Wild is the wind |

I don't want him you can have him He's not worth fighting for Besides there's plenty more where he came from I don't want him you can have him I'm giving him the sack And he can go right back where he came from I'm afraid I never loved him Sweetie he'd be better off with you I could never make him happyAll I ever wanted to do was Run my fingers through his curly locks Mend his underwear and darn his socks Fetch his slippers and remove his shoes Wipe his glasses when he's read the news Rub his forehead with a gentle touch Mornings after when he's had a little too much Kiss him gently when he cuddles near And give him babies one for every yearSo you see that I don't want him you can have him You can have him cos I don't want him Because he's not the man for me Then I'd close the window while he soundly slept Then I'd raid the icebox where the food is kept I'd fix the breakfast that would please him most Eggs and coffee some apricot juice and some buttered toast Oh oh then I'd go out and buy the papers And when they've been read spend the balance of the day in bedSo you see that I don't want him you can have him You can have him cos I don't want him because he's not my man I don't want him you can have him You can have him I don't want him You can have him I don't want him Cos he's not the man for me |

Everytime we say goodbye, I die a little,
Everytime we say goodbye, I wonder why a little, Why the Gods above me, who must be in the know. Think so little of me, they allow you to go. When you're near, there's such an air of spring about it, I can hear a lark somewhere, begin to sing about it, There's no love song finer, but how strange the change from major to minor, Everytime we say goodbye.When you're near, there's such an air of spring about it, I can hear a lark somewhere, begin to sing about it, There's no love song finer, but how strange the change from major to minor, Everytime we say goodbye. |
