When somebody loves you
It's no good unless he loves you all the way
Happy to be near you
When you need someone to cheer you all the way

[Chorus]
Taller than the tallest tree is
That's how it's got to feel
Deeper than the deep blue sea is
That's how deep it goes if it's real

When somebody needs you
It's no good unless he needs you all the way
Through the good or lean years
And for all the in-between years come what may

Who knows where the road will lead us
Only a fool would say
But if you'll let me love you
It's for sure I'm gonna love you all the way all the way

Deeper than the deep blue sea is
That's how deep it goes if it's real

So, if you'll let me love you
It's for sure I'm gonna love you all the way all the way

. . .


dont go changing,to try to please me
never let me down before
dont imagian, your too familar and i dont see you anymore
i wouldnt leave you in the time of trouble we never could never come this far
itook the good times and ill take the bad times ill take u just the way you are
dont go tryin...some new fashion

you always have my unspoken passion although i might not seem to care
i dont want clever convertaion

i just want some one that i can talk to
i want you just the way you are..
i need to know u will always be....the same old someone that i new..
what will it take till u belive in me the way that i belive in you...
said, i love you
and thats forever
oh alright

..uhhmm
i could not love you any better
i love you just the way u are, i love...you...just...the way you are!

Wise men say only fools rush in
But I can't help falling in love with you
Shall I stay
Would it be a sin
If I can't help falling in love with you

Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you

Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you
For I can't help falling in love with you

. . .


I give her all my love
That's all I do
And if you saw my love
You'd love her too
And I love her
She gives me everything
And tenderly
The kiss my lover brings
She brings to me
And I love her
A love like ours
Could never die
As long as I
Have you near me
Bright are the stars that shine
Dark is the sky
I know this love of mine
Will never die
And I love her
Bright are the stars that shine
Dark is the sky
I know this love of mine
Will never die
And I love her

. . .


Why do birds suddenly appear, ev'ry time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be close to you.
Why do stars fall down from the sky, ev'ry time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be close to you

Oh 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 star-light 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

Why do birds suddenly appear, ev'ry time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be close to you.
Why do stars fall down from the sky, ev'ry time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be close to you

besame besame mucho
como si fuera esta noche la ultima vez
besame, besame mucho
que tengo miedo perderte,perderte despues.

quiero tenerte muy cerca
mirarme en tus ojos
verte junto a mi
piensa que tal vez manana
yo ya estare lejos, muy lejos de aqui
besame, besame mucho
como si fuera esta noche la ultima vez
besame, besame mucho
que tengo miedo perderte, perderte otra vez

besame, besame mucho,
each time i cling to your kiss, i hear music divine
oh besame, besame mucho, hold me my darling
and say that you'll always be mine

this joy is something new
my arms enfolding you
never knew this thrill before
who ever thought i'd be holding you close to me
whispering it's you i adore

dearest one, if you should leave me
each little dream would take wing and my life would be through
besame, besame mucho
love me forever and make all my dreams come true.
oh love me forever and make all my dreams come true

. . .


Someday, when I'm awfully low
When the world is cold
I will feel a glow, just thinking of you
And the way you look tonight

Yes, you're lovely
With that smile so warm, and your cheeks so soft
There is nothing for me but to love you
And the way you look tonight

With each word, your tenderness grows
Tearing my fears apart
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose
Touches my foolish heart

(You're) lovely, never never change, keep that breathless charm
Won't you please arrange it?
Because I love you
And the way you look tonight

With each word you tenderness grows
Tearing my fears apart
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose
Touches my foolish heart

(You're) lovely, don't you ever change. Keep that breathless charm.
Won't you please arrange it?
Because I love you
Just the way you look tonight

Oh, oh, just the way you look tonight.

. . .


The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and stars were the gifts you gave
To the dark and the empty skies, my love,

The first time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth move in my hand
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command, my love

And the first time ever I lay with you
I felt your heart so close to mine
And I knew our joy would fill the earth
And last till the end of time my love

. . .


It's a little bit funny this feeling inside
I'm not one of those who can easily hide
I don't have much money but boy if I did
I'd buy a big house where we both could live

If I was a sculptor, but then again, no
Or a man who makes potions in a traveling show
I know it's not much but it's the best I can do
My gift is my song and this one's for you

And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world

I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross
But the sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song
It's for people like you that keep it turned on

So excuse me forgetting but these things I do
You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen

. . .


Some enchanted evening
You may see a stranger,
you may see a stranger
Across a crowded room
And somehow you know,
You know even then
That somewhere you'll see her
Again and again.

Some enchanted evening
Someone may be laughin',
You may hear her laughin'
Across a crowded room
And night after night,
As strange as it seems
The sound of her laughter
Will sing in your dreams.

Who can explain it?
Who can tell you why?
Fools give you reasons,
Wise men never try.

Some enchanted evening
When you find your true love,
When you feel her call you
Across a crowded room,
Then fly to her side,
And make her your own
Or all through your life you
May dream all alone.

Once you have found her,
Never let her go.
Once you have found her,
Never let her go!

. . .


And I love you so,
The people ask me how,
How I've lived till now
I tell them I don't know

I guess they understand
How lonely life has been
But life began again
The day you took my hand

And yes I know how lonely life can be
Shadows follow me
The night won't set me free
But I don't let the evening get me down
Now that you're around me

And you love me too
Your thoughts are just for me
You set my spirit free
I'm happy that you do

The book of life is brief
Once the page is read
All but love is dead
This is my believe

. . .


Who can I turn to, when nobody needs me?
My heart wants to know, and so I must go where destiny leads me.
With no star to guide me, and no one beside me.
I'll go on my way and, after the day, the darkness will hide me.

And maybe tomorrow, I'll find what I'm after.
I'll throw out my sorrow, beg, steal, or borrow my share of laughter.
With you I could learn to, with you on a new day.
But who can I turn to, if you turn away?

. . .


Smile though your heart is aching,
Smile even though itÃў??s breaking,
When there are clouds in the sky,
You'll get by,
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll find that life is still worth while
If you just,
Light up your face with sadness
Hide every trace of gladness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile what the use in crying
You'll find that life is still worth while
If you just smile
Though your heart is aching
Smile even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by,
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll find that life is still worth while
If you just smile

That's the time you must keep
Smile what's the use in crying
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile.

Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa men have named you.
You’re so like the lady with the mystic smile.
Is it only ‘cause you’re lonely they have blamed you
for that Mona Lisa strangeness in your smile?

Do you smile to tempt a lover, Mona Lisa?
Or is this your way to hide a broken heart?
Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep.
They just lie there, and they die there.
Are you warm are real, Mona Lisa,
or just a cold and lonely, lovely work of art?

[break]

Do you smile to tempt a lover, Mona Lisa?
Or is this your way to hide a broken heart?
Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep.
They just lie there, and they die there.
Are you warm are real, Mona Lisa,
or just a cold and lonely… lovely work of art?

I heard she sang a good song
I heard she had a style
And so I came to see her and listen for a while
And there she was this young girl
A stranger to my eyes

Strumming my pain with her fingers
Singing my life with her words
Killing me softly with her song
Killing me softly with her song
Telling my whole life, with her words
Killing me softly with her song

I felt all flushed with fever
Embarrassed by the crowd
I felt he found my letters and read each one out loud
I prayed that he would finish
But he just kept right on

Strumming my pain with her fingers
Singing my life with her words
Killing me softly with her song
Killing me softly with her song
Telling my whole life, with her words
Killing me softly with her song

She sang as if she knew me
In all my dark despair
And then she looked right through me as if I wasn't there
And she just kept on singing
Singing clear and strong

Strumming my pain with her fingers
Singing my life with her words
Killing me softly with her song
Killing me softly with her song
Telling my whole life, with her words
Killing me softly with her song

. . .


Who's sorry now?
Who's sorry now?
Whose heart is aching for breaking each vow?
Who's sad and blue?
Who's crying too?
Just like I cried over you?

Right to the end
Just like a friend
I tried to warn you somehow
You had your way,
Now you must pay
I'm glad that you're sorry now.

Right to the end
Just like a friend
I tried to warn you somehow
You had your way,
Now you must pay
I'm glad that you're sorry now

. . .


Answer me, oh, my love
Just what sin have I been guilty of?
Tell me how I came to lose your love
Please answer me, sweetheart

You were mine yesterday
I believed that love was here to stay
Wont you tell me where Ive gone astray?
Please answer me, my love

If youre happier without me
Ill try not to care
But if you still think about me
Please listen to my prayer

You must know Ive been true
Wont you say that we can start anew?
In my sorrow now I turn to you
Please answer me, my love

[instrumental interlude]

(if youre happier without me)
(Ill try not to care)
But if you still think about me
Please listen to my prayer

You must know (you must know)Ive been true (Ive been true)
Wont you say that we can start anew?
In my sorrow now I turn to you
Please answer me, my love

Answer me, my love

. . .


I give her all my love
That's all I do
And if you saw my love
You'd love her too
And I love her
She gives me everything
And tenderly
The kiss my lover brings
She brings to me
And I love her
A love like ours
Could never die
As long as I
Have you near me
Bright are the stars that shine
Dark is the sky
I know this love of mine
Will never die
And I love her
Bright are the stars that shine
Dark is the sky
I know this love of mine
Will never die
And I love her
