In The Eyes of a Child

Air Supply
When you look to the past for life’s long hidden meaning
For the dreams and the plans made in your youth
Does the thrill to achieve match the warm hidden feeling
That lies so still and lives in you
In the eyes of a child there is joy, there is laughter
There is hope, there is trust, a chance [...]

Sometimes

Music: Henry Mancini
Lyrics: Felice Mancini
Recorded by: The Carpenters
Sometimes,
not often enough,
we reflect upon the good things
and those thoughts always center
around those we love
And I think about those people
who mean so much to me
and for so many years
have made me so very happy
And I count the times
I have forgotten
to say, “Thank you,”
and just how much
I [...]

(Our Love) Don’t Throw It All Away

Andy Gibb
Maybe I don’t wanna know the reason why
But lately you don’t talk to me
Darling I can’t see me in your eyes
I hold you near but you’re so far away
And it’s losing you I can’t believe
To watch you leave and let this feeling die
You alone are the living thing that keeps me alive
And tomorrow if [...]

I Just Wanna Be Your Everything

Andy Gibb
For so long
You and me been finding each other for so long
And the feeling that I feel for you is more than strong, girl
Take it from me
If you give a little more than you’re asking for
Your love will turn the key

Build my world around you, [...]

If

by Nelson del Castillo
From the album, “Beyond Heaven”
If you see that love shine through
Don’t be afraid to show me that you care
And I will take all the doubts in you
And show you what to do
And find a way to make you feel
That I am here ready to show you the way
Refrain:
So, if you say goodbye [...]

He Ain’t Heavy, He’s My Brother

Composed by Bobby Scott and Bob Russell
Performed by The Hollies (1969)
The road is long
With many a winding turns
That leads us to who knows where,
Who knows where.
But I’m strong,
Strong enough to carry him.
He ain’t heavy, he’s my brother.
So on we go.
His welfare is of my concern.
No burden is he to bear,
We’ll get there.
For I know
We would [...]

Yesterday When I Was Young

Music & original French lyrics by: Charles Asnavour
English lyrics by: Herbert Kretzmer
Recorded by: Roy Clark (1965)
Yesterday when I was young
the taste of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue.
I teased at life as if it were a foolish game,
the way the evening breeze may tease a candle flame.
The thousand dreams I dreamed, the splendid [...]

Wonderful Tonight

Recorded by: Eric Clapton
It’s late in the evening,
she’s wondering what clothes to wear.
She puts on her make-up
and brushes her long blonde hair.
And then she asks me,
“Do I look all right?”
And I say,
“Yes, you look wonderful tonight”
We go a party
and everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady
that’s walking around with me
And then she asks me,
“Do [...]

Where Do Broken Hearts Go

Recorded by Whitney Houston
I know it’s been some time
But there’s something on my mind
You see, I haven’t been the same
Since that cold November day…
We said we needed space
But all we found was an empty place
And the only thing I learned
Is that I need you desperately…
So here I am
And can you please tell me… oh
Chorus:
Where do [...]

Unforgettable that’s what you are
Unforgettable though near or far
Like a song of love that clings to me
How the thought of you does things to me
Never before has someone been more
Unforgettable in every way
And forever more that’s how you’ll stay
That’s why darling it’s incredible
That someone so unforgettable
