Green Sleeves
Alas my love You do me wrong To cast me off discoureously And I have loved you oh So long delighting in your company Green sleeves was all my joy Green sleeves was my delight Green sleeves was my heart of God And who but my lady green sleeves
Green Fields
Once there were green fields kissed by the sun Once there were valleys where rivers used to run Once there were blue skies with white clouds high above Once there were part of an everlasting love We were the lovers who strolled through green fields
Green fields are gone now parched by the sun Gone from the valleys where rivers used to run Gone with the cold wind that swept into my heart Gone with the lovers who let their dreams depart Where are the green fields that we used to roam
I`ll never know what made you run away How can I keep searchin` When dark clouds hide the day I only know there`s nothing here for me Nothing in this wide world left for me to see But I`ll keep on waiting `till you return I`ll keep on waiting until the day you learn You can`t be happy while your heart`s on the roam You can`t be happy until you bring it home Home to the green fields and me once again
Good-Bye, Jimmy, Good-Bye
Good-Bye, Jimmy, Good-Bye Good-Bye, Jimmy, Good-Bye I`ll see you again, But I don`t know when. Good-Bye, Jimmy, Good-Bye When wind is blowin`, Rain starts to fall. Train is tootin` Its long lonesome call, Wheels are clickin` their way down the train Counting the days till he`s comin` back.
Good-Bye, Jimmy, Good-Bye Good-Bye, Jimmy, Good-Bye I`ll see you again, But I don`t know when. Good-Bye, Jimmy, Good-Bye When he has traveled the land and sea, He`ll stop his roamin` And come home to me. Give me a kiss for each tear and each sigh, Till then my Jimmy, my Jimmy,Good-Bye. Good-Bye, Jimmy, Good-Bye Good-Bye, Jimmy, Good-Bye I`ll see you again, But I don`t know when. Good-Bye, Jimmy, Good-Bye Good-Bye, Jimmy, Good-Bye
Goodbye To Love
I`ll say goodbye to love No one ever cared if I should live or die Time and time again the chance for love has passed me by And all I know of love is how to live without it I just can`t seem to find it
So I`ve made my mind up I must live my life alone And though it`s not the easy way I guess I`ve always known I`d say goodbye to love
There are no tomorrows for this heart of mine Surely time will lose these bitter memories And I`ll find that there is someone to believe in And to live for something I could live for
All the years of useless search Have finally reached an end Loneliness and empty days will be my only friend From this day love is forgotten I`ll go on as best I can
What lies in the future is a mystery to us all No one can predict the wheel of fortune as it falls There may come a time when I will see that I`ve been wrong But for now this is my song.
And it`s goodbye to love I`ll say goodbye to love.
Five Hundred Miles

If you miss the train I`m on You will know that I am gone You can hear the whistle blow A hundred miles
Feelings
Feelings, nothing more than feelings, Trying to forget my feelings of love. Teardrops, rolling down on my face, Trying to forget my feelings of love. Feelings, for all my life I`ll feel it. I wish I`ve never met you, girl. You`ll never come again. Feeling,oh,... Feeling,oh,.... Feeling Again in my arms. Feelings, feelings like I`ve never lost you, And feelings like I`ll never have you Again in my heart, Feelings, for all my life I`ll feel it. I wish I`ve never met you, girl. You`ll never come again.
Feelings, feelings like I`ve never lost you, And feelings like I`ll never have you Again in my heart, Feeling,oh,... Feeling,oh,.... Feeling Again in my arms.
Feeling,oh,... Feeling,oh,.... Feeling
Edelweiss
Edelweiss, Edelweiss, Every morning you greet me. Small and white, Clean and bright, You look happy to meet me. Blossom of snow, May you bloom and grow, Bloom and grow forever. Edelweiss, Edelweiss, Bless my homeland forever.
Small and white, Clean and bright, You look happy to meet me. Blossom of snow, May you bloom and grow, Bloom and grow forever. Edelweiss, edelweiss, Bless my homeland forever.
Early Morning Rain
In the early mornin` rain With a dollar in my hand With an aching in my heart And my -pockets full of sand I`m a long ways from home And I missed my loved one so In the early mornin` rain With no place to go
Out on runway No. 9 Big 707 set to go And I`m stuck here on the grass Where the cold winds blow Where the liquor tasted good And the time went fast Well, there she goes, my friend There she`s rolling out at last
Hear the mighty engines roar See the silver bird on high She`s away and westward bound Far above the cloud she`ll fly Where the mornin` rain don`t fall And the sun always shines She`ll be flying over my home In about three hours time
Well, this old airports got me down It ain`t no earthly good to me `Cause I`m stuck here on the ground Cold and lonely as I can be You can`t jump a jet plane Like you can`t, a freight train So I`d best be on my way In the early mornin` rain So I`d best be on my way In the early mornin` rain
Do-Re-Mi
Let`s start At the very begining A very good place to start When you read you begin with A-B-C; When you sing you begin with Do-Re-Mi,Do-Re-Mi The first there notes Just happen to be Do-Re-Mi Do-Re-Mi Do-Re-Mi-Fa-So-La-Ti Doe-a deer, a female deer Ray-a drop of golden sun Me-a name, I call myself Far-a long long way to run Sew-a needle pulling thread La-a note to follow "sew" Tea-a drink with jam and bread That will bring us Back to Do-oh-oh
Donna, Donna
On a wagon bound for market there`s a calf with a mournful eye. High above him there`s a swallow Winging swiftly through the sky. How the winds are laughing! They laugh with all their might. Laugh and laugh The whole day through And half the summer`s night. Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna, Do~~ Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna, Do~~
Stop complaining, said the farmer, Who told you a calf to be? Why don`t you have wings to fly with Like the swallow so proud and free?
How the winds are laughing. They laugh with all their might, Laugh and laugh The whole day through Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna, Do~~ Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna, Do~~
Calves are easily bound And slaughtered, Never knowing the reason why. But whoever treasures freedom Like a swallow has learned to fly?
How the winds are laughing. They laugh with all their might, Laugh and laugh The whole day through Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna, Do~~ Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna, Do~~~
Don`t Think Twice It`s Alright
It ain`t no use to sit and wonder why, babe If you don`t know by now An` it ain`t no use to sit and wonder why, babe It don`t matter do somehow When your rooster crows at the break of dawn Look out your window and I`ll be gone You`re the reason I`m trav`lin` on Don`t think twice, it`s all right
It ain`t no use in turnin` on your light, babe That light I never know An` it ain`t no use in turnin` on your light, babe I`m on the dark side of the road Still I wish there was somethin` you could do or say To try and make me change my mind and stay We never did too much talkin` anyway So don`t think twice, it`s all right
It ain`t no use in callin` out my name, gal Like you`ve never done before It ain`t no use in callin` out my name, gal I can`t hear you any more I`m thinkin` and wond`rin` walking down the road I once loved a woman, a child I`m told I give her my heart but she wanted my soul But don`t think twice, it`s all right
So long, honey babe, where I`m bound, I can`t tell Goodbye`s too good a word, babe So I`ll just say fare thee well I ain`t sayin` you treated me unkind You could have done better but I don`t mind All you did was wasted my precious time But don`t think twice, it`s all right.
Don`t Cry, Joni
Jimmy please say you`ll wait for me I`ll grow up some day you`ll see Saving all my kisses just for you Signed with love forever true
Joni was a girl who lived next door I`ve known her I guess ten years or more Joni wrote me a note one day And this is what she had to say
Jimmy please say you`ll wait for me I`ll grow up some day you`ll see Saving all my kisses just for you Signed with love forever true
Slowly I read her note once more Then I went over to the house next door Her teardrops fell like rain that day When I told Joni what I had to say
Joni Joni please don`t cry You`ll forget me by and by you`ll just fifteen and I`m twenty-two And Joni I just can`t wait for you
Soon I left out little home town Got me a job and try to settle down But these works kept on my memory The words that Joni said to me
Jimmy please say you`ll wait for me I`ll grow up some day you`ll see Saving all my kisses just for you Signed with love forever true
I packed my clothes and I called the plane I had to see Joni I had to explain How my heart was filled with her memory And that`s my Joni if she married me
I ran out the way to the house next But things weren`t like they were defore My teardrops fell like rain that day When I hear what Joni had to say
Jimmy Jimmy please don`t cry You`ll forget me by and by It`s been five years since you`ve been gone Jimmy I married your best friend John.

Close To You
La~~ close to you La~~ close to you
Why do birds suddenly appear Every time you are near Just like me they long to be Close to you
Why do stars fall down from the sky Every time you walk by Just like me they long to be Close to you
On the day that you were born The angels got together And decided to create a dream come true So they sprinkled moon dust In your hair of gold And starlight in your eyes of blue
That is why all the boys in town Follow you all around Just like me they long to be Close to you
On the day that you were born The angels got together And decided to create a dream come true So they sprinkled moon dust In your hair of gold And starlight in your eyes of blue
La~~~ close to you.
Casablance
I fell in love with you Watching Casablance. Back row of the driving show In the flickering light. Popcorn and cokes Beneath the stars Became champagne and caviar. Making love on a long hot summer`s night.
I thought you fell in love With me watching Casablance. Holding hands `neath the paddle fans In Rick`s candled cafe~ Hiding in the shadows from the spots. A rocky moonlight in your arms Making magic in the movies in your old Chevrolet.
Oh`a kiss is still a kiss in Casablance. A kiss is not a kiss without your sigh. Please come back to me in Casablance I love you more and more each day As time goes by.
I guess there are many broken hearts in Casablance. You know I`ve never really been there. So I don`t know. I guess our love story will never be seen On the big wide silver screen. But it hurt just as bad When I had to watch you go
Oh`a kiss is still a kiss in Casablance. A kiss is not a kiss without your sigh. Please come back to me in Casablance. I love you more and more each day As time goes by.
Oh`a kiss is still a kiss in Casablance. A kiss is not a kiss without your sigh. Please come back to me in Casablance. I love you more and more each day As time goes by.
I love you more and more each day As time goes by.
Careless Whispers
Time can never mend, The careless whispers of a good friend. To the heart and mind ignorance is kind. There`s no comfort in the truth. Pain is the whole you`ll find. I should have known better -- yeah~~
I feel so unsure as I take you hand And lead you to the dance floor. As the as music dies something in you eyes Calls to mind a silver screen and all is sad goodbye.
I am never gonna dance again. Guity feet have got no rhythm. Though it`s easy to pretend, I know you`re not a fool. I should have known better than to cheet a friend And waste the chance that I`ve been given. So I`m never gonna dance again The way I dance with you~~~

Tonight the music seems so loud. I wish that we could lose this crowd. Maybe it`s better this way. We`d hurt each other with the things we want to say. We could have been so good together We could have lived this dance forever. But now who`s gonna dance with me please stay.

A Dear John Letter
Dear John, oh, how I hate to write! Dear John, I must let you know tonight that my love for you has died away like grass upon the lawn. And tonight I wed another, dear John.
I was overseas in battle when the postman came to me. He handed me a letter and I was just as happy as I could be, `cause the fighting was all over and the battles had all been won. But then I opened up that letter and it started: Dear John.
Won`t you please send back my picture? My husband wants it now. When I tell you who I`m wedding, you won`t care, do you anyhow? And it hurts me so to tell you that my love for you is gone. But tonight I wed your brother, dear John.
