I've a beau, his name is Jim,
He loves me and I love him,
But he tells me I'm too prim,
That means I'm too slow.
I let him rant, I let him rave,
I let him muss my permanent wave,
But when he says "Let's misbehave,"
My reply is "No!"It's not 'cause I wouldn't,
It's not 'cause I shouldn't,
And, Lord knows, it's not 'cause I couldn't,
It's simply becasue I'm the laziest gal in town.
My poor heart is achin'
To bring home the bacon,
And if I'm alone and forsaken,
It's simply because I'm the laziest gal in town.
Though I'm more than willing to learn
How these gals get money to burn,
Ev'ry proposition I turn down,
'Way down,
It's not 'cause I wouldn't
It's not 'cause I shouldn't,
And, Lord knows, it's not 'cause I couldn't,
It's simply because I'm the laziest gal in town.Nothing ever worries me,
Nothing ever hurries me.
I take pleasure leisurely
Even when I kiss.
But when I kiss they want some more,
And wanting more becomes a bore,
It isn't worth the fighting for,
So I tell them this:It's not 'cause I wouldn't,
It's not 'cause I shouldn't,
And, Lord knows, it's not 'cause I couldn't,
It's simply becasue I'm the laziest gal in town.

When the only sound in the empty street,
Is the heavy tread of the heavy feet
That belong to a lonesome cop
I open shop.
When the moon so long has been gazing down
On the wayward ways of this wayward town.
That her smile becomes a smirk,
I go to work.Love for sale,
Appetising young love for sale.
Love that's fresh and still unspoiled,
Love that's only slightly soiled,
Love for sale.
Who will buy?
Who would like to sample my supply?
Who's prepared to pay the price,
For a trip to paradise?
Love for sale
Let the poets pipe of love
in their childish way,
I know every type of love
Better far than they.
And if you want the thrill of love,
I've been through a mill of love;
Old love, new love
Every love but true love
Love for sale.Appetising young love for sale.
If you want to buy my wares.
Follow me and climb the stairs
Love for sale.
Love for sale.

There was a boy,
a very small enchated boy.
They say he wandered very far, very far,
over land and sea.
A little shy and sad of eye,
but very wise was he.And then one day.
One magic day he came my way.
And as we spoke of many things,
fools and kings,
this he said to me.
The greatest thing you'll ever learn
is just to love and be loved in return.

Hey there baby make up your mind

Picture me upon your knee,
Just tea for two and two for tea,
Just you for me and me for you, alone!Nobody near us,
to see us or hear us,
No friends or relations
on weekend vacations
We won't have it known, dear,
That we own a telephone.Day will break and you'll awake
and I will bake
sugar cake for you to take
for all the boys to see.
: We will raise a family,
a girl for you, a boy for me,
Oh, can't you see how happy we would be? :

Down with love
With flowers and rice and shoes
Down with love
The root of all midnight blues
Down with things
That give you that well-known pain
Take that moon
And wrap it in cellophaneDown with love let's liquidate
All it's friends
Like moon, June, roses
And rainbow's ends
Down with songs
That mourn about night and day
Down with love
Take it away, awayTake it away, take it away
Give it back to the birds
To bees and the VienneseDown with eyes romantic and stupid
Down with sighs, down with cupid
Brother let's stuff that doveTake it away, take it away
Give it back to the birds
To bees and the VienneseDown with eyes romantic and stupid
Down with sighs, down with cupid
Brother let's stuff that doveDown down down
Down with love

My story is much to sad to be told
But practically everything leaves me totally cold
The only exception I know in this case
When I'm out in a quiet spree, fighting vainly the old ennui Then I
suddenly turn and see
Your fabulous faceI get no kick from champagne
Mere alcohol doesn't thrill me at all
So tell me why should it be true
That I get a kick out of you
Some like the bop-type refrain
I'm sure that if, I heard even one riff
That would bore me terrifically too
But I get a kick out of you: I get a kick every time I see
you standing there before me
I get a kick though it's clear to see,
you obviously don't adore me
I get no kick in a plane
Flying too high with some gay in the sky
Is my idea of nothing to do
Yet I get a kick out of you :

It had to be you
It had to be you
I wandered around and finally found
somebody who
could make me be true,
could make me be blue,
and even be glad just to be sad thinkin' of you.

: Some others I've seen might never been mean
might never been cross or tried to be boss,
but they wouldn't do.
'Cause nobody else gave me that thrill.
With all your faults, I love you still.

Just for a thrill
You turned the sunshine to rain
Just for a thrill
You filled my heart with pain
To me you were my pride and joy
To you, I was mere little toy
A plaything, that you could toss around at willJust for a thrill
You made my life one sad song
Just for a thrill
You just led me along
Although you are gone and havin' your fun
To me you're still the only one
'Cause you made my heart stand still
It was just for a thrill

You made my life one sad song

Like the beat beat beat of the tom-tom
When the jungle shadows fall
Like the tick tick tock of the stately clock
As it stands against the wall
Like the drip drip drop of the raindrops
When the summer shower is through
So a voice within me keeps
ing you, you, youNight and day, you are the one
Only you beneath the moon and under the sun
Whether near to me, or far
There's no matter darling where you are
I think of you night and day,Night and day, why is it so
That this longing for you follows wherever I go
In the roaring traffic's boom
In the silence of my lonely room
I think of you night and day,Night and day Under the hide of me
There's an oh such a hungry yearning burning inside of me
And this torment won't be through
Til you let me spend my life
making love to you
Day and night, night and day

Some fools don't know what's right from wrong,
But somehow those folks belong.
Me, I travel all I'm worth,
But I still remain a stranger on this earth.Some people gloom, other folks fly.
Me, I got to struggle to keep alive.
Ever since the day of my birth,
I've been a stranger on earth.I try to be what all folks should,
Forgetting the bad and doing good.
But no matter how I try,
My troubles always multiply.
I've been living the best I can
Ever since my life began.
The day is gonna come
when I don't have to prove my worth
I won't be a stranger on earth.I've been living the best I can
Ever since my life began.
The day's gonna come when
I don't have to prove my worth
And I won't be no stranger,
Won't be no stranger
Won't be no stranger
On this earth.

There is a very quiet girl
They call the lonely one
The sorrow in her face
And sadness in her eyes
And if you look into the heart
Within the lonely one
You'll find it's been deceived
That broken was in liesIs it good to have cried?
With the longing to hide
On your heartaches and fears
Is it wise to be cold, to struggle, to hold back with tears
If you could only see the girl
They call the lonely one
You'd know that since you're gone
The lonely one is meIs it good to have cried?

I was a hum-drum person
Leading a life apart
When love flew in through my window wide
And quickened my hum-drum heart
Love flew in thorugh my window
I was so happy then
But after love had stayed a little while
Love flew out againWhat is this thing called love?
This funny thing called love?
Just who can solve its mystery?
Why should it make a fool of me?: I saw you there one wonderful day
You took my heart and threw it away
That's why I ask the Lord in Heaven above
What is this thing called love? :

This night
I awoke
Out from dreams
Of tall cascading fontains
Of love
I'm floating like a dove
Covered from above
With fountains of love

And you
Fly with me
Through a scene
Of deep caressing rivers
Of love
Soft as a dove
It's you i'm dreaming of
With rivers of love

Flowing from above
Knowing only of
Rivers of love

Sa har den drabbat mig igen
Den stora ensamheten
Utan nagon synlig forankring
L verkligheten
Allt synes vara, som det borde
Jag ser inget fel vi gjorde
Allt ar som det borde vara
Jag kan inte alls forklara
Varfor den drabbat mig igen,
Den stora ensamheten

Du talade, jag lyssnade
Jag horde varje ord
Men om sanningen ska sajas
Tror jag inte jag forstod
Nej jag satt dar i min varld,
Dit ingen nansin kan na in
Du maste tro mig, tro nar jag sajer
Att jag vill alltid, jag vill alltid vara din
Trots att den drabbat mig igen,
Den stora ensamheten

Jag har lart mig dras ner, jag vet det ar sa
Jag gav efter for morkret, det var enklare sa
Jag har simmat mot ytan,
Men drogs anda ner
Jag ville nog upp, men formar det inte mer
Dar uppe finns ljuset, dar uppe finns du
Jag sajer som det ar, jag sajer det nu
Jag ar radd och jag sjunger
Den har sangen for dig
Da den berattar om nagonting
Som ansatter mig

Sa har den drabbat mig igen,
Den stora ensamheten
Utan nagon synlig forankring
I verkligheten
Allt synes vara, som det borde
Jag ser inget fel vi gjorde
Allt ar som det borde vara
Jag kan inte alls forklara
Varfor den drabbat mig igen,
Den stora ensamheten

Du slog din hand i vaggen
Vaggen fargades av blod
Ja, du slog och slog i vanmakt
For att jag aldrig forstod
Men jag satt dar i min varld,
Dit ingen nagonsin kan ga in
Du maste tro mig, tro mig nar jag sajer
Att jag vill alltid, jag vill alltid vara din
Trots att den drabbat mig igen,
Den stora ensamheten

Dom band som binder mig har
Ska jag langsamt losa upp
Da jag vet att jag gjorde allt jag kan
Ger jag mig ratten att ge upp

Det blir aldrig battre
Vi kommer aldrig narmre
Vi ar aldrig starkare
An var svagaste punkt
Kedjan ar svag
Da lankarna felar
Och bojan runt foten vager tungt
Jag vill aldrig va nagot tungt for dig
Som hindrar dig fran att resa dig upp
Dom band som binder mig har
Ska jag langsamt losa upp

Jag vill inte snarja dig, binda dig
Aven om du sajer att jag far
Nej jag vill bara kyssa dig pa munnen
Och saja tack for allt innan jag gar

Dom band som binder mig har
Ska jag langsamt losa upp
Da jag vet att jag gjorde allt jag kan
Ger jag mig ratten att ge upp
Det blir aldrig battre Jag vill alltid narmre
Langtans tradar snarjer oss som vill mer
Bunden till hander fotterna bundna
Tyngda faller vi ner

Och jag vill aldrig va nat tungt for dig
Som hindrar dig fran att resa dig upp
Dom band som binder mig har
Ska jag langsamt losa upp

Jag kan inte stanna du maste forsta
Kyssar och tack men nu maste jag ga
For jag vill inte vara din fangvaktarinna
Kyssar och tack,
Det ar hog tid for mig att forsvinna
For dom band som band mig har,
Har jag langsamt lost upp

Har du sett min olyckssyster
Fragar jag min olycksbror
Vi forenas i var vanmakt,
Jag min syster och min bror
Sag du henne springa,
Sag du vart hall hon drog
Sag du hennes tarar rinna,
Sag du om hon log
Sag du om min oro ar befogad kare bror
Tror du att det gatt sa illa
Som jag anar som jag tror

Vi forenas i var vanmakt over tingens existens
Over dom som ser en syster
Eller bror men inte nanns
Stracka ut en hand
Till den som trasslat in sitt nat
Har nagon sett min syster
Sag nagon om hon grat
Har du sett min olyckssyster
Kare vackra olycksbror
Tror du att hon tog en genvag
Dit jag anar dit jag tror
Vi forenas i var vanmakt
I var vanara och skam
Vi ar starka i var vilja
Men nar anda inte fram
Var var jag da jag behovdes
Var var jag da hon var svag
Var var jag da hennes livsvilja
Tog ledigt for ett tag
Var var jag da hennes gnista
Tycktes slockna och do ut
Var ar min olyckssyster
Lat det inte vara slut

Nu blir skuggorna sa langa
Och forandrar vad man ser
Snart ar morkret tatt in pa oss
Da ser vi inte mer
Kom hit min olyckssyster
Innan natten faller pa
Jag ar radd for jag ar radd om dig,
Det maste du forsta
Om varlden ar ett slagfalt
Om allting ar en strid
Om vi ar latt forvirrade om allting ar pa glid
Da behover jag min syster,
Jag behover henne sa.
Du far inte ta nagon genvag,
Nej, du far inte ga.

Flyg vilda fagel
flyg du som kan
hade jag dina vingar da flog jag min vag och forsvann
for en tid
for att besinna
besinna vad jag i mitt hjarta vill
men jag har ingen vild fagels vingar

Flyg vilda fagel
flyg du som kan
hade jag dina vingar da flog jag min vag och forsvann

Dar ovan traden
ar sikten fri
hogt ovan marken fjarran fran disharmoni
uppifran
sett fran molnen
syns allting i en annan dimension
uppifran
sett fran molnen
synes problemen anta mindre proportion

Du är en saga för god för att vara sann

Daybreak And the moon's
still floating high
What a wonderful surprise
I close my eyes
And dream of you
I'm dreaming at daybreak
And the world's so far behind
That's why i always find at daybreak
I'm still dreaming of you
You're from above
My one and only love
There's no other at daybreak
All i want is you forever
That's why it's true
whenever daybreaks
I'm still dreaming of you

Daybreak All i want is you forever
That's why it's true
whenever daybreaks
I'm still dreaming of you

I'm still dreaming of you

How many more times must i cry
How many more times must i say goodbye
To you
I've opened all the way
For you
It's always just somedayHow many more times must i try
How many more times must i lay down and die
For you
I'd lose mountains
And blue skies
But i can't help losing my mind for you
How many more timesI'd lose mountains
And blue skies
But i can't help losing my mind for you
How many more times

i don't miss you anymore
unless the moon light's green
or on a stogy night
i just might miss you
a little bit

i don't miss you anymore
unless it's a cloudy day
or if the sun shines bright
i just might miss you
now and then

i don't miss you
'till the morning fills the air
or the afternoon is fair
or the evening light
is barely there

i don't miss you
and you know it's not a lie
unless the moon is floating high
above a perfect midnight sky




i don't miss you
'till the morning fills the air
or the afternoon is fair
or the evening light
is barely there

i don't miss you
and you know it's not a lie
unless the moon is floating high
above a perfect midnight sky




i don't miss you anymore
unless I close my eyes
especially open wide
i see i miss you everyday

If the sun
Refused to shine
Down on me
'Till the end of time
As long as i have your caress
Your tenderness
I will be blessedIf the stars
Refused their light
Just for me
They stayed out of sight
If you say you love me best
I won't care less
I will be blessedIf the wind won't blow your name
Until i'm still
I will
If it's whispered from above
The highest hill
I willIf the moon
Up in the sky
Turned its face
From the lonely eye
I could never be distressed
Or love you less
I will be blessed

I've seen a million works of art
But nothing on canvas
Can capture my heart
I'm looking for something
Even Rembrandt couldn't do
I've never seen anything like you

I have a million photographs
Of sages and saints
But thre's something they lack
Now i see something
Even God would approuve
I've never seen anything like you

Now you could say my mind is gone
But i know it isn't true
Now i could carry on and on all day
In praise of you

I've seen the stars up in the sky
Like angels from heaven
Or a tear in my eye
But they don't shine brighter
Than the light you're shinin' through
I've never seen anything like you

If a bird sat down upon my shoulder
Would i know if it's a sparrow?
Just as well now it could be a nightingaleIf i had the wealth of all the universe
Would i be a pharoah?
Just as well now i could use my
Might to sail awayI know everything seems so real
I know we're on a spinning wheel
I know it wuold be so nice
Almost paradise
If you and i just sit togetherIf you listen close enough
My song will hit you surer than an arrow
Then you'll hear me singing like a
Nightingale at play
At play

Tonight i'll drown
In the eye of my lover
If i empty my hands
I'll hold everythingI've given up my will
Now you can take it all from me
Or you can leave me
Drowing in a wave of my conceitTonight i'll crash
On the ground of my lover
If i give up my soul
I'll be everythingI've climbed the highest hills
And traveled all the distant seas
But that just leaves me
Broken on the ground of my conceitThere's a secret so deep
Opened up from a day
When there's nothing to keep
And there's nothing to let fall awayTonight i'll burn
In the flame of my lover
If i give you my heart
I'll be everythingI died for all the thrills
But always wound up on my knees
That's where you'll see me
Burning in the fire of my conceit.

Only you
Can make me feel
The world can disappearOnly you
Make my heart heal
And make it oh so clearWe can talk in circles
Going round in a million ways
And never understand'Cause our words are whispers
Hidden up in a distant haze
Like diamonds next to sandI don't even know
What it's all about
But i get all blissed out
And then i know
It's only you

This night
I awoke
Out from dreams
Of tall cascading fontains
Of love
I'm floating like a dove
Covered from above
With fountains of love

And you
Fly with me
Through a scene
Of deep caressing rivers
Of love
Soft as a dove
It's you i'm dreaming of
With rivers of love

Flowing from above
Knowing only of
Rivers of love

In the silence of my mind
I can see our love was just a line
To a grasp of air
That's nowhereAnd while i wait for love's embrace
My life is but a race
Since you're gone now
All my light is left to wasteI never learned the rule
That love can be so cruel
When it's over and done
Now i can't believe
That what they say is true
How love can be renewed
Because once it's abused
Then it's throughThere's no laughter in your smile
And all that's left are shadows in my mind
Of a different place
And your faceAnd in the quiet of my heart
The sadness lingers on
Now i just have a different point of view
Since you've been gone
