| Oh, Atlanta | |
|
Same old place, same Old City, What can I do, I'm falling in love,
I'm just an old hound dog, Roaming around, oh lord,
I got all this and heaven above, Oh, Atlanta, hear me calling,
I'm coming back to you one fine day, No need to worry, there ain't no hurry, 'Cause I'm, on my way back to Georgia, On my way
back to Georgia.
I get a feeling when I remember, All the crazy days and
crazy nights, Country music playing, You must have heard
them saying, They're going to whip it up, And light up the lights
Oh, Atlanta, hear me calling, I'm coming back to you one fine day
No need to worry, there ain't no hurry, 'Cause I'm, on my way back to Georgia, On my way back to Georgia.
Same old place, it's the same old city, What can I do,
I'm falling in love, I'm just an old hound dog, Roaming around,
oh lord, I got all this and heaven above
Oh, Atlanta, hear me calling,
I'm coming back to you one
fine day,
No need to worry, there ain't no hurry,
'Cause I'm, well, Atlanta hear me calling,
I'm coming back to you one fine
day,
No need to worry, no need to hurry, 'Cause I'm, on my way back to Georgia,
On my way back to Georgia,
On my way back to Georgia,
On my way back to Georgia,
On my way back to Georgia,
On my way, on my way,
n my way back to Georgia,
Oh yeah, oh yeah,
Georgia on my mind,
On my way back to Georgia
Yes I'm on my way, yeah.

| You're Never Alone | |
|
(Written by Robert Hart and Dave Colwell)
I can't sleep tonight
The Manhattan skyline keeps shining through
I just call out your name
And pray to God I make it home to you
If there's such a thing as forever
Then I want to spend the time with you
You're never alone when you love someone
Even when they're so far away
You're never alone when you need someone
Just close your eyes and drift away
When you love someone
I made you promises
Did I let you down with those little white lies?
You let me hold on to my shattered dreams
And you never walked no damn(?) one step behind
If there's such a thing as forever
Then I want to spend the time with you
You're never alone when you love someone
Even when they're so far away
You're never alone when you need someone
Just close your eyes and drift away
Heaven knows I'm a friend to you
I brought my whole love around you
Never want to let you slip away
I wanna be the air that surrounds you
And when I think what you wanna do
I guess there's nothing left to say
The night fades away
Oh, I think of you as I face another day
You see, tomorrow I'm coming home to you
God only knows how I made a fool
You're never alone when you love someone
Even when they're so far away
You're never alone when you need someone
Just close your eyes and drift away
You're never alone when you love someone
Even when they're so far away
You're never alone when you need someone
Just close your eyes and drift away
Baby drift away
(You're never alone when you love someone)
You're never alone, even when they're so far away
When you love someone
(You're never alone when you need someone)
Just close your eyes and drift away
You're never alone, you're never alone...

| I Still Believe in You | |
|
(Written by Vince Gill and John Barlow Jarvis)
Everybody wants a little piece of my time
But still I put you at the end of the line
How it breaks my heart to cause you this pain
To see the tears you cry falling like rain
Give me the chance to prove
And I'll make it up to you
I still believe in you
With a love that will always be, yeah
Standing so strong and true
Baby, I still believe in you and me
You know I believe in you, baby
Somewhere along the way, I guess I lost my track
Only thinking of myself, never looking back
For all the times I hurt you, I apologize
I'm sorry it took so long to finally realize
Give me the chance to prove
That nothing's worth losing you
I still believe in you
With a love that will always be, yeah
Standing so strong and true
Baby, I still believe in you and me
You see, I believe in you, baby
I believe in you
I still believe...
I still believe in you
With a love that will always be, yeah
Standing so strong and true
Baby, I still believe in... I still believe in you
(I still believe in you)
(With a love that will always be)
(Standing so strong and true)
(Baby, I still believe in you and me) You make me feel so good
(I still believe in you) I believe in you, I believe in you
(With a love that will always be) You know I do
(Standing so strong and true) You know I do, yeah
(Baby, I still believe in you and me) You know that I do
Baby, I believe in ya
Won't you believe in me too
And I'll make it up to you

| Ready for Love | |
|
Walkin' down this rocky road
Wondering where my life is leadin'
Rollin' on to the bitter end
Finding out along the way
What it takes to keep love living
You should know how it feels, my friend
Ooh, I want you to stay
Ooh, I want you today
I'm ready for love
Oh baby, I'm ready for love
Ready for love
Oh baby, I'm ready for love
Now I'm on my feet again
Better things are bound to happen
All my dues surely must be paid
Many miles and many tears
Times were hard but now they're changing
You should know that I'm not afraid
Ooh, I want you to stay
Ooh, I want you today
I'm ready for love
Oh baby, I'm ready for love
I'm ready for love
Oh baby, I'm ready for love
Oh, for your love

| Waiting on Love | |
|
Oh yeah, oh yeah
You drive me crazy, every little thing about you
Can't get you out of my head
And when I'm with you, nothing seems to really matter
And every word that you say
I know our names ain't carved in stone
But right now I can't leave you alone
Infatuation's taken hold on me
I can't let you go, I won't let you go
How long have I been waiting on love
Now that I've found you, I can't get enough
How long have I been waiting on love
I've been waiting for somebody like you
You know I've been waiting
I always wanted someone to believe in me
Someone to show me the way
You came along and shone light into my darkness
You know it set me free
I know our names ain't carved in stone
But right now I can't leave you alone
Infatuation's taken hold on me
I can't let you go, I won't let you go
How long have I been waiting on love
Now that I've found you, I can't get enough
How long have I been waiting on love
I've been waiting for somebody like you
I've just got to let you know
Someone I wish to hold just to let my feelings show(?)
Never gonna let you slip away
I'm asking you to stay, yeah
Now that I've found you
Oh yeah
How long have I been waiting on love
Now that I've found you, I can't get enough
How long have I been waiting on love
I've been waiting for somebody like you
Yeah, you know I've been waiting
You know I've been waiting for somebody just like you
I've been waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting for somebody just like you
For somebody, for somebody
I've been waiting, I've been waiting
Now that I've found you, ain't gonna let you go
For somebody...

| Silver, Blue and Gold | |

In the beginning
I believed every word that you said
Now that you're gone
My world is in shreds
Oh you loved me and left me
You took all the things that I needed so bad
I'm standing here wondering
Where is the love that I had
CHORUS:
Give me silver, blue and gold
The color of the sky I'm told
My rainbow is overdue
In the beginning
There was something of love that was mine
Now that it's gone
Whoa I'm crying
Oh the time that it takes for a love to grow cold
Is a wonder to me
I'm walking around with my head hanging down
Tell me where is she
CHORUS
Don't forsake me 'cause I love you (2x)
CHORUS (2x)
Now give me silver, blue and gold
The color of the sky I'm told
My rainbow is overdue, yeah
Oh don't forsake me 'cause I love you
Don't forsake me 'cause I love you

Jonny was a schoolboy, when he heard his first Beatles song.
"Love Me Do" I think it was, and from there it didn't take him long.
Got himself a guitar, used to play it every night,
Now he's in a rock 'n' roll outfit, and everything's all right.
Don't you know...
Jonny told his mama, "Hey Mama, I'm goin away,
"Gonna hit the big time, gona be a big star some day."
Mama came to the door, with a teardrop in her eye,
Jonny said: "Don't cry, Mama," smiled and waved good-bye.
Don't you know...
Don't you know that you are a Shooting Star?
Don't you know? Don't you know?
Don't you know that you are a Shooting Star,
And all the world will love you just as long, as long as you are.
Jonny made a record, went straight up to Number One,
Suddenly everyone loved to hear him sing his song.
Watching the world go by, as it brightly goes so fast,
Jonny looked around him and said: "Well, I made the big time at last."
Don't you know? Don't you know?
Don't you know that you are a Shooting Star?
Don't you know? Don't you know?
Don't you know that you are a Shooting Star,
And all the world will love you just as long, as long as you are
A Shooting Star?
Jonny died one night, died in his bed,
Bottle of whiskey, sleeping tablets by his head.
Jonny's life passed him by like a warm Summer day,
If you listen to the wind, you can still hear him play.
Don't you know...
Don't you know that you are a Shooting Star?
Don't you know? Don't you know?
Don't you know that you are a Shooting Star?
Don't ya, don't ya, don't ya, don't you know
That you are a Shooting Star?

Mary, don't you weep no more
Mary, don't you weep no more
'Cuz, I got your letter today
Pack my bags and I'm on my way
So, don't you weep no more

Dry your eyes

So, put away your fears
Cuz, I know I once done you wrong
I want to say I'm sorry
And I'm comin' back home
So, don't you weep no more
Don' t you weep no more

And I feel your tears in the rain
Shadows of night are falling
Can't you hear me call your name

So, don't you weep
Don't you weep
Don't you weep
Don't you weep no more
