It would be easier to take the wet from water or the dry from sand
Than for anyone to try to separate us or stop us from holding hands, 'cause [Chorus] I love you, I love you from the bottom of my heart And what love has joined together, what love has joined together Can nobody take it apart It would be easier to take the cold from the snow or the heat from fire Than for anyone to take me love from you 'cause you're my heart's desire, and [Chorus] Even if they separate us a thousand miles apart We will still be together in each other's hearts It would be easier to change all the seasons of the year Than for anyone to change the way I feel about you; I love you dear |

Laughing boy (Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha)
That's what they used to call you Before you found a new love to take my place (Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha) Laughing boy (Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha) That's what they used to call you You always wore a smile upon your face (Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha) But as I look at you now, I know that somehow The smile you're wearing is untrue Laughing boy (Laughing boy), I think you're blue Your new love (Your new love) She really must have hurt you She really must have filled your heart with pain 'Cause I know you well (Know you well) And you could never fool me I know that somehow you're not the same (La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la) As I look at you now, I know that somehow When you say you're happy, you're lying Laughing Boy (Laughing boy), I believe you've been crying (La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la) Don't you know that it's true, I still love you Just as much as I did before So laughing boy (Come on home) Come on home, laughing boy (Come on home) Come on home, laughing boy (Come on home) And smile once more |

Well well well well
Let's get together and go for a walk in the park And while we're walking we can steal a little kiss in the dark I wanna walk with you (I wanna walk with you) I wanna talk with you (I wanna talk with you) But it's up you to say "Come on baby" If you don't hurry up I'll go crazy Cause a walk in the park all alone is just no fun [Chorus] What two can easily do, what two can easily do Is so hard to be done by one I'm sure that you know that I love you with all of my heart But a love that's true really takes two to start I wanna do my share (I wanna do my share) To show you that I care (to show you that I care) Cause a one-sided love will never do You gotta show me that you love me too Cause falling in love all alone is just no fun [Chorus] One can build a love affair slowly Two can build a love affair fast One can make a love get started Two can make it last So come on and take me by the hand Lead me up to the preacher man Together we can do all the things that should be done [Chorus] |

That day, I first saw you passing by I wanted, to ask your name but I...was much too shy But I was looking at you so hard That you must have had a hunch. So you came up to me and asked me my name. You beat me to the punch That time You beat me to the punch Yes you did. After, I had known you for what seems like a long, long time I wanted, wanted to ask you would you please, please be mine Whenever you came around, my heart would pound So you must have had a hunch. So you came up to me and asked me to be yours. You beat me to the punch One more time You beat me to the punch Yes you did. Since I loved you I thought you would be true And love me tender So I let my heart surrender To you, yes I did. But I found out Beyond a doubt One day, boy You were a playboy Who would go away and leave me Blue. So I ain't gonna wait around for you to put me down This time I'm gonna play my hunch And walk away this very day. And beat you to the punch Yes I will I'll beat you to the punch This time. |

> She left you last night
And today you called me on the phone Asked me if you could come over 'Cause you didn't want to be alone So you want me to stand in for her And be the love of your next act But this time I play the part so well There'll be no need for her coming back, 'cause... CHORUS: You know that I'm your old stand-by You know that you can call on me I know the part so well that you can hardly tell That she's left you in misery I know you only called me 'cause you needed company 'Cause once again she's left you and your heart's in misery, but... (chorus) (instrumental) (repeat and fade): I don't wanna be your old stand-by I wanna be with you permanently I'm gonna play the part from the depths of my heart And you won't need nobody but me |
