The other day, I posted something in another thread where I asked members what was the first word that popped into their head when they saw/heard the word "cheap"?
My first response was from
Whoknows and his reply was "perfume". That phrase, cheap perfume, made me instantly think of Journey's DON'T STOP BELIEVING. The post went in a different direction from what I planned but it was so much fun! Example, there were other responses to the word "cheap" that included shoddy, floozy and several more and
huxley999 was able to cite songs with those words in them!
Let's pick a RANDOM word and see if a song comes to mind. My guess is not every word will trigger a song to pop into our heads, but who knows. If you would kindly post a few lines of the song that reflects "the word", the name of the song and the artist and if you like, a YouTube link to the song. PLEASE ATTACH YOUR SONG TO THE PARTICULAR "WORD OF THE DAY".
Let's have some musical fun!

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
[Bridge:]
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
[instrumental-last two lines of Chorus]
So, if you'll let me love you
It's for sure I'm gonna love you all the way all the way

Ku-u-i-po I love you more today
More today THAN yesterday
But I love you less today
Less than I will tomorrow
See the sweet Hawaiian rose
See it blossom see it grow
That's the story of our love
Ever since we said hello
As the years go passing by
We'll recall our wedding day
I will be there by your side
You will always hear me say
Ku-u-i-po, you're my Hawaiian sweetheart

Saying "I love you"
Is not the words I want to hear from you
It's not that I want you
Not to say but if you only knew
How easy, it would be to show me how you feel
More THAN words is all you have to do to make it real
Then you wouldn't have to say that you love me
'Cause I'd already know
What would you do
If my heart was torn in two?
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real
What would you say
If I took those words away?
Then you couldn't make things new
Just by saying "I love you"
La-di-da, da-di-da
Di-dai-dai-da
More than words
La-di-da, da-di-da
Now that I've tried to
Talk to you and make you understand
All you have to do is close your eyes
And just reach out your hands and touch me
Hold me close, don't ever let me go
More than words is all I ever needed you to show
Then you wouldn't have to say that you love me
'Cause I'd already know
What would you do
If my heart was torn in two?
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real
What would you say
If I took those words away?
Then you couldn't make things new
Just by saying "I love you"

Oh, girl, I've known you very well
I've seen you growing every day
I never really looked before
But now you take my breath away
Suddenly you're in my life
Part of everything I do
You got me working day and night
Just tryin' to keep a hold on you
Here in your arms I found my paradise
My only chance for happiness
And if I lose you now, I think I would die
Oh, say you'll always be my baby, we can make it shine
We can take forever, just a minute at a time
More THAN a woman
More THAN a woman to me
More THAN a woman
More THAN a woman to me
There are stories old and true
Of people so in love like you and me
And I can see myself
Let history repeat itself
Reflecting how I feel for you
Thinking 'bout those people then
I know that in a thousand years
I'd fall in love with you again
This is the only way that we should fly
This is the only way to go
And if I lose your love, I know I would die
Oh, say you'll always be my baby, we can make it shine
We can take forever, just a minute at a time
More THAN a woman
More THAN a woman to me
More THAN a woman (ooh, my baby)
More THAN a woman to me
Hey
More THAN a woman
More THAN a woman to me (oh, so much more)
More THAN a woman (oh, baby)
More THAN a woman to me
More THAN a woman
More THAN a woman to me
More THAN a woman
More THAN a woman to me
More THAN a woman

From the ice age to the dole age
There is but one concern
I have just discovered:
Some girls' are bigger than others
Some girls' are bigger than others
Some girls' mothers are bigger than other girls' mothers
Some girls' are bigger than others
Some girls' are bigger than others
Some girls' mothers are bigger than other girls' mothers
As Anthony said to Cleopatra
As he opened a crate of ale:
"Oh I say"
Some girls' are bigger than others
Some girls' are bigger than others
Some girls' mothers are bigger than other girls' mothers
Some girls' are bigger than others
Some girls' are bigger than others
Some girls' mothers are bigger than other girls' mothers

The one that you dream on
Send me the pillow (pillow)
The one that you dream on
And I'll send you mine
Yeah
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Now, touch me, babe
Can't you see that I am not afraid?
What was that promise that you made?
Why won't you tell me what she said?
What was that promise that you made?
Now I'm gonna love you
Till the heavens stop the rain
I'm gonna love you
Till the stars fall from the sky
For you and I
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Now, touch me, babe

Till the stars fall from the sky
For you and I

I'm only happy when it rains
I'm only happy when it's complicated
And though I know you can't appreciate it
I'm only happy when it rains
You know I love it when the news is bad
Why it feels so good to feel so SAD?
I'm only happy when it rains
Pour your misery down
Pour your misery down on me
Pour your misery down
Pour your misery down on me
I'm only happy when it rains
I feel good when things are goin' wrong
I only listen to the sad, sad songs
I'm only happy when it rains
I only smile in the dark
My only comfort is the night gone black
I didn't accidentally tell you that
I'm only happy when it rains
You'll get the message by the time I'm through
When I complain about me and you
I'm only happy when it rains
Pour your misery down (Pour your misery down)
Pour your misery down on me
Pour your misery down (Pour your misery down)
Pour your misery down on me
Pour your misery down (Pour your misery down)

You wanna hear about my new obsession?
I'm riding high upon a deep depression
I'm only happy when it rains
Pour some misery down on me
I'm only happy when it rains
Pour some misery down on me
I'm only happy when it rains

What have I gotta do to make you love me?
What have I gotta do to make you care?
What do I do when lightning strikes me?
And I wake to find that you're not there
What do I do to make you want me?
What have I gotta do to be heard?
What do I say when it's all over?
And sorry seems to be the hardest word
It's SAD, (so SAD) so SAD
It's a SAD, SAD situation
And it's getting more and more absurd
It's SAD, (so SAD) so SAD
Why can't we talk it over?
Oh, it seems to me
That sorry seems to be the hardest word
It's SAD, (so SAD) so SAD
It's a SAD, SAD situation
And it's getting more and more absurd
It's SAD, (so SAD) so SAD
Why can't we talk it over?
Oh, it seems to me
That sorry seems to be the hardest word
What do I do to make you love me?
Oh, what have I gotta do to be heard?
What do I do when lightning strikes me?
What have I gotta do?
What have I gotta do?
Ooh, and sorry seems to be the hardest word
Sad Songs ~ Elton John

Guess there are times when we all need to share a little pain
And ironin' out the rough spots
Is the hardest part when memories remain
And it's times like these when we all need to hear the radio
'Cause from the lips of some old singer
We can share the troubles we already know
Turn 'em on, turn 'em on
Turn on those SAD songs
When all hope is gone (ah...)
Why don't you tune in and turn them on?
They reach into your room, oh
Just feel their gentle touch (gentle touch)
When all hope is gone (ooh)
SAD songs say so much
If someone else is sufferin' enough, oh, to write it down
When every single word makes sense
Then it's easier to have those songs around
The kick inside is in the line that finally gets to you
And it feels so good to hurt so bad
And suffer just enough to sing the blues
So turn 'em on, turn 'em on
Turn on those SAD songs
When all hope is gone (ah...)
Why don't you tune in and turn them on?
They reach into your room, oh
Just feel their gentle touch (gentle touch)
When all hope is gone (ooh...)
You know SAD songs say so much
SAD songs, they say
SAD songs, they say
SAD songs, they say (ah...)
SAD songs, they say so much
So turn 'em on (turn 'em on), oh, turn 'em on (turn 'em on)
Turn on those SAD songs (SAD songs)
When all hope is gone (ah...)
Why don't you tune in and turn them on?
They reach into your room, oh
Just feel their gentle touch (gentle touch)
When all hope is gone (ooh...)
You know SAD songs say so much
When all hope is gone
You know SAD songs say so much (ooh, la, la-la, ooh, la, la-la)
When every little bit of hope is gone
SAD songs say so much (ooh, la, la-la, ooh, la, la-la)
When every little bit of hope is gone
SAD songs say so much (ooh, la, la-la, ooh, la, la-la)
When all hope is gone
SAD songs say so much (ooh, la, la-la, ooh, la, la-la)
When every little bit of hope is gone
SAD songs say so much (ooh, la, la-la, ooh, la, la-la)
When everything you do is goin' wrong
SAD songs say so much (ooh, la, la-la, ooh, la, la-la)
In my other thread I posted that I am enrolled in an iPhone introduction class tomorrow, at 12:45p. Yep, I threw in the towel, I bit the bullet, it’s been 4.5 months since I switched from android to the IOS operating platform.
I'm sorry for the loss of the android in your life.

The girl that's driving me mad
Is going away
She's got a ticket to ride
She's got a ticket to ride
She's got a ticket to ride
But she don't care
She said that living with me
Is bringing her down, yeah
For she would never be free
When I was around
She's got a ticket to ride
She's got a ticket to ride
She's got a ticket to ride
But she don't care
I don't know why she's riding so high
She ought to think twice
She ought to do right by me
Before she gets to saying goodbye
She ought to think twice
She ought to do right by me
I think I'm gonna be sad
I think it's today, yeah
The girl that's driving me mad
Is going away, yeah
Oh, she's got a ticket to ride

Don't look so SAD
I know it's over
But life goes on
And this old world
Will keep on turning
Let's just be glad
We had some time to spend together
There's no need to watch the bridges
That we're burning
Lay your head
Upon my pillow
Hold your warm and tender body
Close to mine
Hear the whisper of the raindrops
Blowing soft, across the window
And make believe you love me
One more time
For the good times
I'll get along
You'll find another
And I'll be here
If you should find
You ever need me
Don't say a word
About tomorrow, or forever
There'll be time enough for sadness
When you leave me
Lay your head
Upon my pillow
Hold your warm and tender body
Close to mine
Hear the whisper of the raindrops
Blowing soft across the window
And make believe you love me
One more time
For the good times
For the good times.

Treat me like a fool
Treat me mean and cruel
But love me
Wring my faithful heart
Tear it all apart
But love me (won't you love me?)
Well, if you ever go
Darling, I'll be oh, so lonely
I'll be SAD and blue
Crying over you, dear, only
I would beg and steal (beg and steal)
Just to feel (just to feel)
Your heart (I want your heart)
Beating close to mine (so close to mine)
Well, if you ever go
Darling, I'll be oh, so lonely
I'll be sad and blue
Crying over you, dear, only
I would beg and steal (he would beg and steal)
Just to feel (yes, just to feel)
Your heart (I want your heart)
Beating close to mine (so close to mine)
Well, if you ever go
Darling, I'll be oh, so lonely
Beggin' on my knees
All I ask is please, please love me
Oh yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Now if there's a smile on my face
It's only there trying to fool the public
But when it comes down to fooling you
Now, honey, that's quite a different subject
But don't let my glad expression
Give you the wrong impression
Really, I'm SAD (SAD, SAD, SAD, SAD)
Oh, I'm SADDER than SAD (I'm hurt so bad)
You're gone, and I'm hurtin' so bad (I pretend to be glad)
Like a clown, I pretend to be glad (SAD, SAD, SAD, SAD)
Now there's some SAD things known to man
But ain't too much SADDER than the tears of a clown
When there's no one around
Oh yeah, baby
Now if I appear to be carefree
It's only to camouflage my SADNESS
And honey, to shield my pride, I try
To cover this hurt with a show of gladness
But don't let my show convince you
That I've been happy since you
Decided to go (why did you go?)
Oh, I need you so (I need you so)
I'm hurt and I want you to know (want you to know)
But for others I put on a show, ooh yeah (it's just a show)
Now there's some SAD things known to man
But ain't too much SADDER than the tears of a clown
When there's no one around
Oh, yeah
Just like Pagliacci did
I try to keep my SADNESS hid
Smiling in the public eye
But in my lonely room, I cry the tears of a clown
When there's no one around
Oh yeah, baby
Now if there's a smile on my face (tears of a clown)
Don't let my glad expression
Give you the wrong impression (tears of a clown)
Don't let this smile I wear
Make you think that I don't care (tears of a clown)
When really I'm SAD
Hurtin' so bad (tears of a clown)

There'll be no strings to bind your hands
Not if my love can't bind your heart
There's no need to take a stand
For it was I who chose to start
I see no need to take me home
I'm old enough to face the dawn
Just call me ANGEL of the morning, angel
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Then slowly turn away from me
Maybe the sun's light will be dim
And it won't matter anyhow
If morning's echo says we've sinned
Well, it was what I wanted now
And if we're victims of the night
I won't be blinded by the light
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Then slowly turn away
I won't beg you to stay with me
Through the tears
Of the day
Of the years
Baby
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, darling
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, darling

Strawberries, cherries and an ANGEL'S kiss in spring
My summer wine is really made from all these things
I walked in town on silver spurs that jingled to
A song that I had only sang to just a few
She saw my silver spurs and said let's pass some time
And I will give to you summer wine
Oh, summer wine
Strawberries, cherries and an angel's kiss in spring
My summer wine is really made from all these things
Take off your silver spurs and help me pass the time
And I will give to you summer wine
Oh, summer wine
My eyes grew heavy and my lips, they could not speak
I tried to get up but I couldn't find my feet
She reassured me with an unfamiliar line
And then she gave to me more summer wine
Oh, summer wine
Strawberries, cherries and an angel's kiss in spring
My summer wine is really made from all these things
Take off your silver spurs and help me pass the time
And I will give to you summer wine
Summer wine
When I woke up the sun was shining in my eyes
My silver spurs were gone, my head felt twice it's size
She took my silver spurs, a dollar and a dime
And left me cravin' for more summer wine
Oh, summer wine
Strawberries, cherries and an angel's kiss in spring
My summer wine is really made from all these things
Take off those silver spurs and help me pass the time
And I will give to you my summer wine
Oh, summer wine

It was a cold and wet December day
When we touched the ground at JFK
Snow was melting on the ground
On BLS I heard the sound
Of an ANGEL
New York, like a Christmas tree
Tonight this city belongs to me
ANGEL
Soul love, this love won't let me go
So long, ANGEL of Harlem
Birdland on fifty-three
The street sounds like a symphony
We got John Coltrane and a love supreme
Miles, and she's got to be an ANGEL
Lady Day got diamond eyes
She sees the truth behind the lies
ANGEL
Soul love, this love won't let me go
So long, ANGEL of Harlem
ANGEL of Harlem
She says it's heart, heart and soul
Yeah, yeah (yeah)
Yeah, yeah (right now)
Blue light on the avenue
God knows they got to you
An empty glass, the lady sings
Eyes swollen like a bee sting
Blinded you lost your way
Through the side streets and the alleyway
Like a star exploding in the night
Falling to the city in broad daylight
An ANGEL in Devil's shoes
Salvation in the blues
You never looked like an ANGEL
Yeah, yeah, ANGEL of Harlem
ANGEL, ANGEL of Harlem
ANGEL, ANGEL of Harlem
ANGEL, ANGEL of Harlem
ANGEL, ANGEL of Harlem

Somebody somewhere turns out the light
Somebody all alone faces the night
You got to be strong when you're out on your own
'Cause sooner or later we all SLEEP alone
Nobody nowhere holds the key to your heart
When love's a possession it'll tear you apart
You may have lovers wherever you roam
But sooner or later we all sleep alone
Oh, the young and the young at heart wait
But the wait never ends in the soul
When you feel like it's all blown away
Independence has come and into the night I go
Don't make no promises I can't keep
I won't be no prisoner of somebody's needs
You know I have lovers wherever you roam
But sooner or later, oo, we all sleep alone
We all sleep alone, yeah, yeah
We all sleep alone, we all sleep alone
When you close your eyes and go to SLEEP
And it's down to the sound of a heartbeat
I can hear the things that you're dreamin' about
When you open up your heart and the truth comes out
You tell me that you want me
You tell me that you need me
You tell me that you love me
And I know that I'm right
'Cause I hear it in the night
I hear the secrets that you keep
When you're talkin' in your SLEEP
I hear the secrets that you keep
When you're talkin' in your SLEEP
When I hold you in my arms at night
Don't you know you're SLEEPING ' in a spotlight
And all your dreams that you keep inside
You're tellin' me the secrets that you just can't hide
You tell me that you want me
You tell me that you need me
You tell me that you love me
And I know that I'm right
'Cause I hear it in the night
I hear the secrets that you keep

You're only just a dreamboat
Sailing in my head
You swim my secret oceans
Of coral blue and red
Your smell is incense burning
Your touch is silken yet
It reaches through my skin
And moving from within
It clutches at my breast
But it's only when I SLEEP
See you in my dreams
You got me spinning 'round and 'round
Turning upside-down
But I only hear you breathe
Somewhere in my sleep
Got me spinning 'round and 'round
Turning upside-down
But it's only when I sleep
And when I wake from slumber
Your shadow's disappear
Your breath is just a sea mist
Surrounding my body
I'm working through the daytime
But when it's time to rest
I'm lying in my bed
Listening to my breath
Falling from the edge
But it's only when I sleep
See you in my dreams (dreams)
You got me spinning 'round and 'round
Turning upside-down
But I only hear you breathe
Somewhere in my sleep (in my sleep)
Got me spinning 'round and 'round
Turning upside-down
But it's only when I sleep
Yeah, yeah
It's only when I sleep
Up to the sky
Where angels fly
I'll never die
Hawaiian High
It's reaching through my skin
Moving from within
And clutches at my breasts, yeah
But it's only when I sleep
See you in my dreams (dreams)
Got me spinning 'round and 'round
Turning upside-down
But I only hear you breathe
In bed, I lie
No need to cry
My sleeping cry
Hawaiian High
But it's only when I sleep
Got me spinning 'round and 'round
(Turning upside-down)
Up to the sky
Where angels fly
I'll never die ('round and 'round)
(Turning upside-down)
Hawaiian High (But it's only when I sleep)
Got me spinning 'round and 'round
Turning upside-down

When routine bites hard,
And ambitions are low,
And resentment rides high,
But emotions won't grow,
And we're changing our ways,
Taking different roads.
Then love, love will tear us apart again.
Love, love will tear us apart again.
Why is the bedroom so cold?
You've turned away on your side.
Is my timing that flawed?
Our respect runs so dry.
Yet there's still this appeal
That we've kept through our lives.
But love, love will tear us apart again.
Love, love will tear us apart again.
You cry out in your SLEEP,
All my failings exposed.
And there's a taste in my mouth,
As desperation takes hold.
Just that something so good
Just can't function no more.
But love, love will tear us apart again.
Love, love will tear us apart again.
Love, love will tear us apart again.
Love, love will tear us apart again.

The clock by the bed is ticking too loud in the quiet night
I lie in the darkness thinking I must go before it's light
Before you open up your eyes and you beg me to stay
I'll leave 'cause I can't stand to see you hurt this way
SLEEP my love as I kiss you goodbye
Then I won't hear the sound of your cry
Though I knew the time was coming and our love would end somehow
I just couldn't bear to tell you exactly just when or how
I know we can't go on, that it was wrong to start
But if you wake up crying now, you know you'll break my heart
Sleep my love as I kiss you goodbye
Then I won't hear the sound of your cry
Sleep my love as I kiss you goodbye
Then I won't hear the sound of your cry
Ohhhh, sleep my love as I kiss you, kiss you, kiss you goodbye
Then I won't hear the sound of your cry
Ohhhh, sleep my love as I kiss you goodbye
Then I won't hear oh no, the sound of your cry
Ohhhh, sleep my love as I kiss you goodbye
Then I won't hear the sound of your cry
Oh ooh ooh ooh, sleep my love as I kiss you goodbye
Then I won't hear the sound of your cry
Sleep my love as I kiss you goodbye
Then I won't hear the sound of your cry
As in I’m SORRY for this late post……

… SORRY
Is all that you can say
Years gone by and still
Words don't come easily
Like sorry, like sorry
… Forgive me
Is all that you can't say
Years gone by and still
Words don't come easily
Like forgive me, forgive me
… But you can say baby
Baby, can I hold you tonight?
Maybe if I told you the right words
Ooh, at the right time you'd be mine
… I love you
Is all that you can't say
Years gone by and still
Words don't come easily
Like I love you, I love you
… But you can say baby
Baby, can I hold you tonight?
Maybe if I told you the right words
Ooh, at the right time you'd be mine
… Baby, can I hold you tonight?
Maybe if I told you the right words
Ooh, at the right time you'd be mine
You'd be mine
You'd be mine

You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar
When I met you
I picked you out, I shook you up
And turned you around
Turned you into someone new
Now five years later on you've got the world at your feet
Success has been so easy for you
But don't forget it's me who put you where you are now
And I can put you back down too
Don't. Don't you want me?
You know I can't believe it when I hear that you won't see me
Don't. Don't you want me?
You know I don't believe you when you say that you don't need me
It's much too late to find
When you think you've changed your mind
You'd better change it back or we will both be SORRY
Don't you want me, baby?
Don't you want me? Oh!
Don't you want me, baby?
Don't you want me? Oh!
I was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar
That much is true
But even then I knew I'd find a much better place
Either with or without you
The five years we have had have been such good at times
I still love you
But now I think it's time I live my life on my own
I guess it's just what I must do
Don't. Don't you want me?
You know I can't believe it when I hear that you won't see me
Don't. Don't you want me?
You know I don't believe you when you say that you don't need me
It's much too late to find
When you think you've changed your mind
You'd better change it back or we will both be sorry
Don't you want me, baby?
Don't you want me? Oh!

Down in the street, they're all singing and shouting
Staying alive though the city is dead
Hiding their shame behind hollow laughter
While you are crying alone on your bed
Pity Cassandra that no one believed you
But then again you were lost from the start
Now we must suffer and sell our secrets
Bargain, playing smart, aching in our hearts
SORRY Cassandra, I misunderstood
Now the last day is dawning
Some of us wanted, but none of us would
Listen to words of warning
But on the darkest of nights
Nobody knew how to fight
And we were caught in our sleep
Sorry Cassandra, I didn't believe
You really had the power
I only saw it as dreams you would weave
Until the final hour
So in the morning your ship will be sailing
Now that your father and sister are gone
There is no reason for you to linger
You're grieving deeply but still moving on
You know the future is casting a shadow
No one else sees it, but you know your fate
Packing your bags, being slow and thorough
Knowing, though you're late, that ship is sure to wait
Sorry Cassandra, I misunderstood
Now the last day is dawning
Some of us wanted, but none of us would
Listen to words of warning
But on the darkest of nights
Nobody knew how to fight
And we were caught in our sleep
Sorry Cassandra, I didn't believe
You really had the power
I only saw it as dreams you would weave
Until the final hour
I watched the ship leaving harbor at sunrise
Sails almost slack in the cool morning rain
She stood on deck, just a tiny figure
Rigid and restrained, blue eyes filled with pain
Sorry Cassandra, I misunderstood
Now the last day is dawning
Some of us wanted, but none of us would
Listen to words of warning
But on the darkest of nights
Nobody knew how to fight
And we were caught in our sleep
Sorry Cassandra, I didn't believe
You really had the power
I only saw it as dreams you would weave
Until the final hour
I'm sorry Cassandra
I'm sorry Cassandra
I'm sorry Cassandra
I'm sorry Cassandra
I'm sorry Cassandra

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

Please, I just got to talk to you
Please, well keep your head out of the loo
Please, we're a long, long way from home
Please, you'd turn a young man's face to stone
Sick as a dog, what's your story
Sick as a dog, a cat got your tongue
Sick as a dog, you'll be SORRY
Sick as a dog, you're really ain't that young
Please, you were much to my surprise
Please, you're a lady in disguise
Please, you're the only friend I got
Please, you'll be the last to see me rot
Sick as a dog, what's your story
Sick as a dog, a cat got your tongue
Sick as a dog, you'll be SORRY
Sick as a dog, 'cause you really ain't that young
Please, it's a shame you're so refined
Please, she was the last thing on my mind
Please, don't be late to take it light
Please, you're gonna bay into the night
Sick as a dog, what's your story
Sick as a dog, a cat got your tongue
Sick as a dog, you'll be SORRY
Sick as a dog, 'cause you really ain't so young
Take it light
Take it light
Take it light
Take it light
Save the night
Take it light

Nights in white satin
Never reaching the end
Letters I've written
Never meaning to SEND
Beauty I'd always missed
With these eyes before
Just what the truth is
I can't say anymore
'Cause I love you
Yes, I love you
Oh, how I love you
Gazing at people
Some hand in hand
Just what I'm going through
They can't understand
Some try to tell me
Thoughts they cannot defend
Just what you want to be
You will be in the end
And I love you
Yes, I love you
Oh, how I love you
Oh, how I love you
Nights in white satin
Never reaching the end
Letters I've written
Never meaning to send
Beauty I've always missed
With these eyes before
Just what the truth is
I can't say anymore
'Cause I love you
Yes, I love you
Oh, how I love you
Oh, how I love you
'Cause I love you
Yes, I love you
Oh, how I love you
Oh, how I love you

Whistle down the wind
Let your voices carry
Drown out all the rain
Light a patch of darkness
Treacherous and scary
Howl at the stars
Whisper when you're sleeping
I'll be there to hold you
I'll be there to stop
The chills and all the weeping
Make it clear and strong
So the whole night long
Every signal that you SEND
Until the very end
I will not abandon you
My precious friend
So try and stem the tide
Then you'll raise a banner
Send a flare up in the sky
Try to burn a torch
And try to build a bonfire
Every signal that you send
Until the very end, I'm there
So whistle down the wind
For I have always been right there
Howl at the stars
Whisper when you're sleeping
I'll be there to hold you
I'll be there to stop
The chills and all the weeping
Make it clear and strong
So the whole night long
Every signal that you send
Until the very end
I will not abandon you
My precious friend
So try and stem the tide
Then you'll raise a banner
Send a flare up in the sky
Try to burn a torch
And try to build a bonfire
Every signal that you send
Until the very end, I'm there
So whistle down the wind
For I have always been right there

Isn't it rich?
Are we a pair?
Me here at last on the ground
You in mid-air
SEND in the clowns
Isn't it bliss?
Don't you approve?
One who keeps tearing around
One who can't move
Where are the clowns?
Send in the clowns
Just when I'd stopped
Opening doors
Finally knowing the one that I wanted was yours
Making my entrance again
With my usual flair
Sure of my lines
No one is there
Don't you love farce?
My fault, I fear
I thought that you'd want what I want
Sorry, my dear
But where are the clowns?
Quick, send in the clowns
Don't bother they're here
Isn't it rich?
Isn't it queer?
Losing my timing this late
In my career
But where are the clowns?
There ought to be clowns
Well, maybe next year...

I need a lady, not somebody shady
Need someone to be close to
Somebody cozy, not somebody nosy
Help me see my whole day through
Someone to share the load
Somebody to walk the road I live on, live
Good Lord SEND me, good Lord mend me
SEND me down someone for me
Said I won't be choosy, you could SEND me a floozy
SEND me anybody you please
Somebody say you will
Somebody further still
Somebody, some, somebody for me
Now won't you SEND me somebody?
Yeah, somebody
Won't you SEND me somebody?
Now won't you SEND me somebody
Well, call for somebody, scream loud and bloody
Call woman, woman, come on to me
Save for tomorrow, share all your sorrow
Misery enjoys company
(Yes it does, yes it does)
Somebody say you will
Somebody further still
Somebody, some, somebody for me
Somebody say you will
Somebody further still
Somebody, some, somebody for

I once had a girl
Or should I say she once had me
She showed me her room
Isn't it good Norwegian wood?
She asked me to stay
And she told me to sit anywhere
So I looked around
And I noticed there wasn't a chair
I sat on a rug biding my time
Drinking her wine
We talked until two and then she said
"It's time for bed"
She told me she worked
In the morning and started to laugh
I told her I didn't
And crawled off to sleep in the bath
And WHEN I awoke I was alone
This bird had flown
So I lit a fire
Isn't it good Norwegian wood?

[Verse 1]
WHEN I was a lad
And old Shep was a pup
Over hills and meadows we'd stray
Just a boy and his dog
We were both full of fun
We grew up together that way
[Verse 2]
I remember the time
At the old swimmin' hole
When I would have drowned beyond doubt
But old Shep was right there
To the rescue he came
He jumped in and helped pull me out
[Verse 3]
As the years fast did roll
Old Shep, he grew old
His eyes were fast growing dim
And one day the doctor
Looked at me and said
"I can do no more for him, Jim"
[Verse 4]
With hands that were trembling
I picked up my gun
And aimed it at Shep's faithful head
I just couldn't do it
I wanted to run
I wish they would shoot me insteaD
[Verse 5]
He came to my side
And he looked up at me
And laid his old head on my knee
I had struck the best friend
That a man ever had
I cried so I scarcely could see
[Verse 6]
Old Shep, he has gone
Where the good doggies go
And no more with old Shep will I roam
But if dogs have a heaven
There's one thing I know
Old Shep has a wonderful home

I've been cheated
Been mistreated
WHEN will I be loved?
I've been put down
I've been pushed 'round
When will I be loved?
When I find a new man
That I want for mine
He always breaks my heart in two
It happens every time
I've been made blue
I've been lied to
When will I be loved?
When I find a new man
That I want for mine
He always breaks my heart in two
It happens every time
Oh, I've been cheated
Been mistreated
When will I be loved?
When will I be loved?
Tell me, when will I be loved?
The whispers in the morning
Of lovers sleeping tight
Are rolling by like thunder now
As I look in your eyes
I hold on to your whole body
And feel each move you make
Your voice is warm and tender
A love that I could not forsake
'Cause I'm your lady
And you are my man
Whenever you reach for me
I'll do all that I can
Lost is how I'm feeling lying in your arms
When the world outside's too
Much to take
That all ends WHEN I'm with you
Even though there may be times
It seems I'm far away
Never wonder where I am
'Cause I am always by your side
'Cause I'm your lady
And you are my man
Whenever you reach for me
I'll do all that I can
We're heading for something
Somewhere I've never been
Sometimes I am frightened
But I'm ready to learn
Of the power of love
The sound of your heart beating
Made it clear
Suddenly the feeling that I can't go on
Is light years away
'Cause I'm your lady
And you are my man
Whenever you reach for me
I'm gonna do all that I can
We're heading for something
Somewhere I've never been
Sometimes I am frightened
But I'm ready to learn
Of the power of love
The power of love, the power of love, the power of love
Sometimes I am frightened but I'm ready to learn
Of the power of love
The power of love oh
As I look into your eyes
The power of love
(The power of love)
The power of love

Now here you go again
You say you want your freedom
Well, who am I to keep you down?
It's only right that you should
Play the way you feel it
But listen carefully
To the sound of your loneliness
Like a heartbeat drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering what you had
And what you lost
And what you had
And what you lost
Oh, thunder only happens WHEN it's rainin'
Players only love you WHEN they're playin'
Say women, they will come and they will go
WHEN the rain washes you clean, you'll know
You'll know
Now here I go again
I see the crystal visions
I keep my visions to myself
It's only me who wants to wrap around your dreams
And have you any dreams you'd like to sell?
Dreams of loneliness
Like a heartbeat drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering what you had
And what you lost
And what you had
Ooh, what you lost
Thunder only happens WHEN it's rainin'
Players only love you WHEN they're playin'
Women, they will come and they will go
WHEN the rain washes you clean, you'll know
Oh, thunder only happens WHEN it's rainin'
Players only love you WHEN they're playin'
Say women, they will come and they will go
WHEN the rain washes you clean, you'll know
You'll know
You will know
Oh, you'll know
Yeah, c'mon
Yeah!

Cancel my subscription to the resurrection
Send my credentials to the house of detention
I got some friends inside
The face in the mirror won't stop
The girl in the window won't drop
A feast of friends, alive she cried
Waitin' for me
Outside
Before I sink
Into the big sleep
I want to hear
I want to hear
The scream of the butterfly
Come back, baby, back into my arm
We're gettin' tired of hangin' around
Waitin' around with our heads to the ground
I hear a very gentle sound
Very near yet very far
Very soft, yeah, very clear
Come today, come today
What have they done to the earth, yeah?
What have they done to our fair sister?
Ravaged and plundered and ripped her and bit her
Stuck her with knives in the side of the dawn and
Tied her with fences and dragged her down
I hear a very gentle sound
With your ear down to the ground
We want the world and we want it (we want the world and we want it!)
Now
Now?
Now!
Persian night, babe
See the light, babe
Save us
Jesus
Save us!
So WHEN the music's over

Raindrops on roses
And whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things
Cream-colored ponies and crisp apple strudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells
And schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things
Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver-white winters that melt into springs
These are a few of my favorite things
When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad
Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things
Cream-colored ponies and crisp apple strudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things
Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into springs
These are a few of my favorite things
When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad

And then I don't feel so bad
Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
Wake me up WHEN September ends
Like my father's come to pass
Seven years has gone so fast
Wake me up WHEN September ends
Here comes the rain again
Falling from the stars
Drenched in my pain again
Becoming who we are
As my memory rests
But never forgets what I lost
Wake me up WHEN September ends
Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
Wake me up WHEN September ends
Ring out the bells again
Like we did WHEN spring began
Wake me up WHEN September ends
Here comes the rain again
Falling from the stars
Drenched in my pain again
Becoming who we are
As my memory rests
But never forgets what I lost
Wake me up WHEN September ends
Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
Wake me up WHEN September ends
Like my father's come to pass
20 years has gone so fast
Wake me up WHEN September ends
Wake me up WHEN September ends
Wake me up WHEN September ends
