You’re the one, now I know that you’re the one,
And I know the golden years I’ve waited for have just begun.
I’ve has some foolish loves along the way,
But all those foolish loves of yesterday, fade into dust.
You’re the spring, you’re the [...]

Hey, read all about it, read all about it! Paper, mister?
Down in Nashville, Tennessee,
A little fella shouted this to me,
Buy a paper, know the news,
Or else I gotta sing the Newsboy’s Blues.
Dig a nickel from your jeans,
A nickel buys a lot [...]

There’s something missing in the way you say hello,
Baby, your words don’t have that feeling any more,
Every time you hold me in your arms, it seems we’re miles apart.
Am I the one you’re holding in your heart?
There’s something missing in the [...]

After the rain goes, people see rainbows,
But I see rainbows when it storms above,
So darling, is it any wonder I can laugh at thunder,
Walking in the sunshine of your love.
And below zero, I’m such a hero,
I never wear a muffler or [...]

He: We kiss in the shadow, we hide from the moon,
Our meetings are few and over too soon.
She: We speak in a whisper, afraid to be heard,
When people are near, we speak not a word.
He: Alone in our secret, together we [...]

I’m sentimental, so I walk in the rain
I’ve got some habits even I can’t explain
Could start for the corner, turn up in Spain
But why try to change me now?
I sit and daydream, I’ve got daydreams galore
Cigarette ashes, there they go on [...]

I’m so in love with you, please love me
Whatever else you do, just love me
Go your way and dance and play till dawn breaks though
If you’ll just call up and say “I love you, just you”
You’re all that I desire, love [...]

Oh luna rossa, you’re out tonight,
A moon of red in a sky of white,
Because I’m selling a lie tonight,
And blushing moon, you know of it.
Oh lunna rossa, you’re smart at love
You know I’m playing the part of love,
I try my hand [...]

My feet were killing me, my dogs were barkin’,
I must have fallen asleep where I was parkin’,
And then I dreamed two dogs were talkin’, take my word,
It was the doggone-est thing you ever heard.
She said, (Mama will bark.) You look so [...]

My girl is violin and candlelight,
My girl is star-shine on a summer night.
Lucky heart to be part of a love like this,
Where every single kiss is a short-cut to heaven.
Heaven knows, she’s everything that’s dear to me,
She smiles, and cloudy days [...]
