Connie Francis - Rocksides (1957-64) (1987) by Connie Francis (보컬) on maniadb.com

My memory takes me to
The wonderful nights we knew
When I made love to you until the dawn.
You left and to my surprise
I'm laughing with tear dimmed eyes
Because I realise
I can't go on my darling.

With the parting of the ways
You took all my happy days
And left me lonely nights.
Morning never comes too soon
I can face the afternoon
But oh, those lonely nights.
I feel your arms around me,
Your kisses linger yet,
You taught me how to love you,
Now teach me to forget!
You broke my heart a million ways
When you took my happy days
And left me lonely nights.

The beautiful month of May
Without you is sad and grey,
Oh, how I hate the day, I let you go.
I find that my happiness,
Depends on your sweet caress
I thought I loved you less,
But now I know, my darling.

With the parting of the ways
You took all my happy days
And left me lonely nights.
Morning never comes too soon
I can face the afternoon
But oh, those lonely nights.
I feel your arms around me,
Your kisses linger yet,
You taught me how to love you,
Now teach me to forget!
You broke my heart a million ways
When you took my happy days
And left me lonely nights.

I want a robot man to hold me tight
One that I can count on every si-ingle night
He wouldn't run around like other guys
I wouldn't have to listen to his alibis

A little robot man to call my own
I'd never have to worry that he wou-ouldn't phone
He'd never dance with anyone but me
I'd just have to wind him with a robot key

I'd have a steady da-ate (yay-yay-yay-yay)
Seven nights a wee-eek (yay-yay-yay-yay)
And we would never fi-ight (yay-yay-yay-yay)
'Cause it would be impossible for him to speak

Don't want a real live boy, they give me grief
Always make me cry into my ha-andkerchief
So it's a robot man I'm dreamin' of
Because I can depend upon a robot love, yeah

Mmm, we'd have a steady da-ate (yay-yay-yay-yay)
Seven nights a wee-eek (yay-yay-yay-yay)
And we would never fi-ight (yay-yay-yay-yay)
'Cause it would be impossible for him to speak

Don't want a real live boy, they give me grief
Always make me cry into a ha-andkerchief
So it's a robot man I'm dreamin' of
Because I can depend upon a robot love

Yeah, just hope I can depend upon a robot love
I mean, because I can depend upon a robot love
Do-oo, because I can depend upon a robot love
Oh-oh, just hope I can depend upon a robot love
I mean, because I can depend upon a robot love [fade]

No one ever kissed me the way that you do,
And no one ever told me"I love you",
No one ever cared,
No, no one ever shared,
All those dreams that I dreamed would come true,

(2nd verse)

No one ever hurt me the way that you do,
"Cause no one ever broke my heart in two,
But I'll keep on caring my whole life through,
For no one,no one but you.

(repeat 2nd verse)

He's my dreamboat, asleep in English class,
He's my dreamboat, mowin' his folk's grass,
He's my dream boat with the dreamy, dreamy eyes.
He's my dreamboat, workin' on his car,
He's my dreamboat, straddlin' his guitar,
He's my dreamboat with the dreamy dreamy eyes.

Well now,
I dream of dreamboat in everything I do
And I know that darlin'dreamboat
Dreams of me too.

He's my dreamboat, coffee in a Dixie cup,
Darling dreamboat, that crazy, silly nut,
He's my dreamboat with the dreamy, dreamy eyes.

Yes, he's my dreamboat, coffeein a Dixie cup,
Darlin dreamboat, that crazy, silly nut,
He's my dreamboat with the dreamy, dreamy eyes.

(Doo dee doo dee doo dee doo)
(Doo dee doo dee doo dee doo)
He don't play football golf or guitar
He's never been on Bandstand Sullivan or Parr
He's just not important cause he ain't a star
(He's just a scientist)
He just fools around with bottles and tubes
(He's just a scientist)
He's so square he's a cube
(He's just a scientist)
Big think glasses
And he's bald
(He's just a scientist)
Ah that's all
All the games are won by big and brawny half-backs
And marshals' find rustlers by their horses' tracks
But who's gonna get us to the moon and back
(He'll be a scientist)
I think it's inhumane
(Hey, just a scientist)
Sendin' those poor little monkeys up in that thing
(Yeah, just a scientist)
I think there otta be a law
There otta be a law
(He's just a scientist)
That's all
Everybody's flippin' over Fabian
Or Frankie Avalon
But nobody ever seems to give a flip
Over Dr. Werner Von Braun
(Cause he's just a scientist)
He's nobody's fool
(He's just a scientist)
Workin' on that slide rule
(He's just a scientist)
He's big and tall
(He's just a scientist)
Ah that's all
Now all that we remember is a Thunder Bird
That knocked us out and made us go
But we done forgot about the polio shot
Invented by Dr. Salk
(Cause he's just a scientist)
That's somethin' I've got to get
(He's just a scientist)
I ain't got mine yet either
(He's just a scientist)
But I guess we can wait till fall
(He's just a scientist)
Ah that's all
(Doo dee doo dee doo dee doo)
He's just a scientist
(Doo dee doo dee doo dee doo)
He's just a scientist

Whoa-oh-oh,
Whoa,whoa,whoa,whoa,whoa
Whoa-oh-oh,
Whoa,whoa,whoa,whoa,whoa,
In the lonely night,
I wake up to find,
Someone else's boy,
Always on my mind,
But he doesn't know,
How much I really love him so.

Whoa,whoa,whoa,whoa,whoa,
Though it isn't right,
When I dream like this,
I long to hold him tight,
And to taste his kiss,
And then I wake to find,
He's someone else's boy,
Not mi-i-i-i-ine.

(chorus)
Whenever I see them together,
It breaks my poor heart in two,
I know that I should forget him,
"Cause he's her guy,
But what can I do?

Whoa,whoa,whoa whoa,
How I hope and pray,
To the Lord above,
To send me down a boy,
One that I can love,
Who'll be mine alone,
And not someone else's boy.
(repeat from chorus)

Whose jalopy is covered with junk
But don't have any money for lunch?
It's Hollywood, it's Hollywood

Who's the local star
With the big, fine car?
It's Hollywood

Who wears the shady glasses after dark?
Who tries to talk the little girlie's into parking?
It's Hollywood, Hollywood

Who's the local yokel with
The horn rimmed bifocals?
It's Hollywood
Go, go, go

Who else would hold a cigarette like that?
Who else would wear a little Frenchy's hat?
No one but Hollywood, Hollywood

Who thinks he's been around
But ain't never been out of town?
It's Hollywood

I'll give you just one little guess
At who old Hollywood's trying to impress
You're right, it's Hollywood, Hollywood

Who's that farmer
Who think he's a charmer?
It's Hollywood

Yeah, it's Hollywood all right
Here Hollywood, here's a quarter
Go buy yourself some, ah, continental pants
Ascot, cigarette holder etc, etc

I told my best friend Barbara what a great guy Jimmy was
Who ever thought the day would come when Jimmy would be hers

My best friend Barbara told me Jimmy's no good
And like a fool I listened to her
The way she knew I would
My best friend Barbara

My best friend Barbara said he cheats and he lies
She couldn't wait for me to break up with him
Now Jimmy's Barbara's guy
My best friend Barbara

Look at her - hangin' on his arm
Tryin' very hard to please
There's a moral to the story
With friends like her
Who needs enemies

My best friend Barbara, she's going steady with Jim
And every single night I sit up and cry
While Barbara's kissin' him
My best friend Barbara

Look at her - hangin' on his arm
Tryin' very hard to please
There's a moral to the story
With friends like her
Who needs enemies

My best friend Barbara, she's going steady with Jim
And every single night I sit up and cry
While Barbara's kissin' him
My best friend Barbara

And if it takes me forever and a day
I'm gonna steal my Jimmy away from
My best friend Barbara

Oh, her lipstick's all a mess
She thinks that she's the best
She's walkin' down the street in a tight yellow dress
My best friend Barbara

Yeah, yeah, I'm just-a-lookin'
Uh-huh, I'm just-a-lookin'
Yeah, yeah, I'm just-a-lookin'
I'm just lookin' for love

I've got fortune, I've got fame.
Everybody in the world knows my name
Yeah, yeah, uh-huh, I'm just looking for love.

I got diamonds, I've got pearls
I'm the envy of the teenage girls.
Yea, yeah, uh-huh, but I'm still looking for love.

I drive around in convertible cars,
Go to wild parties with the movie stars.
I get to wear fabulous furs,
But I don't have towels marked "His" and "Hers".

I'll be as lucky as a girl can be
When that certain man comes a-lookin' for me
Yeah, yeah, uh-huh, I'm just looking for love.

Yeah, yeah, I'm just-a-lookin'
Uh-huh, I'm just-a-lookin'
Yeah, yeah, I'm just-a-lookin'
I'm just lookin' for love

I drive around in convertible cars,
Go to wild parties with movie stars.
I get to wear fabulous furs,
But I don't have towels marked "His" and "Hers".

Who needs all of this wealth untold
When all I need's a little band of gold
Yeah, yeah, uh-huh, I'm just lookin' for love.

Yeah, yeah, I'm just-a-lookin'
Uh-huh, I'm just-a-lookin'
Yeah, yeah, I'm just-a-lookin'
I'm just lookin' for love

Baby, Baby - I've been waiting
For somebody to love just me
I'm so happy now that I found you
I'll stand by you till eternity

Don't ever leave me, don't ever let me go
I wouldn't know what to do, I wouldn't know where to go
Don't ever leave me, I'm giving you my heart
And it would break in two if we should ever part

Baby, tell me how much you love me
And I have something to say to you
I will always make you happy
And I promise that I will be true

Don't ever leave me, don't ever let me go
I wouldn't know what to do, I wouldn't know where to go
Don't ever leave me, I'm giving you my heart
And it would break in two if we should ever part

Don't ever leave me, don't ever let me go
I wouldn't know what to do, I wouldn't know where to go
Don't ever leave me, I'm giving you my heart
And it would break in two if we should ever part

Baby, Baby - don't ever leave me
Don't ever leave me...
