When you're near
There's such an air of spring about it
I can hear a lark somewhere
Begin to sing about it
There's no love song finer
But how strange the change
From major to minor
Ev'ry time we say goodbye

Grandyma Sun 31-Aug-25 23:33:39

We'll meet again
Don't know where
Don't know when
But I know we'll meet again some sunny day
Keep smiling through
Just like you always do
'Til the blue skies chase those dark clouds far away
And will you please say hello
To the folks that I know
Tell them I won't be long
They'll be happy to know
That as you saw me go
I was singing this song

Grannmarie Sat 30-Aug-25 23:32:56

Say Goodbye, my own true lover,
As we sing our lovers' song
How it breaks my heart to leave you
Now the carnival is gone.
High above, the dawn is breaking
And my tears are falling rain,
For the carnival is over,
We may never meet again.

dayvidg Sat 30-Aug-25 16:25:06

When I say goodbye it is never for long
'Cause I know our love still lives on
It will be again exactly like it was
'Cause I believe in the power of love

When you're close I can feel the power
When it's love I can always tell
Love for me is the best thing now
It's something that I know so well

Hold me closer and every minute
Of every hour, feel the power of love, yeah
Hold me tighter and take me higher
And feel the fire of the power of love

Grandyma Sat 30-Aug-25 13:34:57

Woke up one morning half asleep
With all my blankets in a heap
And yellow roses scattered all around
The time was still approaching four
I couldn't stand it any more
Saw marigolds upon my eider down
I'm just sitting watching flowers in the rain
Feel the power of the rain
Making the garden grow
I'm just sitting watching flowers in the rain
Feel the power of the rain
Keeping me cool

crazyH Sat 30-Aug-25 11:53:20

Sittin' in the mornin' sun
I'll be sittin' when the evenin' come
Watching the ships roll in
And then I watch 'em roll away again, yeah
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time
I left my home in Georgia
Headed for the 'Frisco bay
I've had nothing to live for
Look like nothin's gonna come my way
So I'm just gonna sit on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time

Grandyma Sat 30-Aug-25 10:12:54

Sitting in a park in Paris France
Reading the news and it sure looks bad
They won't give peace a chance
That was just a dream some of us had
Still a lot of lands to see
But I wouldn't want to stay here
It's too old and cold and settled in its ways here
Oh but California

California I'm coming home
I'm going to see the folks I dig
I'll even kiss a Sunset pig
California I'm coming home

Grannmarie Fri 29-Aug-25 20:42:39

All the leaves are brown
And the sky is grey
I went for a walk
On a winter's day
I'd be safe and warm
If I was in L.A.
California dreamin', on such a winter's day

crazyH Fri 29-Aug-25 18:06:04

The falling leaves drift by the window
The autumn leaves of red and gold
I see your lips, the summer kisses
The sun-burned hands I used to hold
Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall
Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall

dayvidg Fri 29-Aug-25 17:05:09

Through autumn's golden gown we used to kick our way
You always loved this time of year.
Those fallen leaves lie undisturbed now
Cause you're not here
Like a song through the trees you came to love me
Like a leaf on a breeze you blew away
A gentle rain falls softly on my weary eyes
As if to hide a lonely tear
My life will be forever autumn
'Cause you're not here

Grandyma Fri 29-Aug-25 15:54:16

One more night
One more night

I've been trying, ooh, so long
To let you know, let you know how I feel
And if I stumble, if I fall, just help me back
So I can make you see

Please give me one more night
Give me one more night
One more night
'Cause I can't wait forever
Give me just one more night
Ooh, just one more night
Oh, one more night
'Cause I can't wait forever

crazyH Thu 28-Aug-25 17:11:57

It was only a winter's tale
Just another winter's tale
And why should the world take notice
Of one more love that's failed?
A love that could never be
Though it meant a lot to you and me
On a worldwide scale
We're just another winter's tale

dayvidg Thu 28-Aug-25 16:45:54

The winter's bitterness is lost
It's the fireside warmth that comforts me
The peace for all my thoughts
The night brings shadows to the street
It's the time for dreams of things to come
To creep inside their lives
You're concealing every feeling
Can you find me, deep inside you
Let me touch you, let me keep you
Let me know you're there

Grannmarie Wed 27-Aug-25 20:46:01

I can't remember if I cried
When I read about his widowed bride
Something touched me deep inside
The day the music died.

dayvidg Wed 27-Aug-25 18:16:04

Working my way back to you, babe
With a burnin' love inside
Yeah, I'm workin' my way back to you, babe
And the happiness that died
I let it get away
Payin' every day

Grandyma Tue 26-Aug-25 22:18:12

No matter what they tell us
No matter what they do
No matter what they teach us
What we believe is true
No matter what they call us
However they attack
No matter where they take us
We'll find our own way back

dayvidg Tue 26-Aug-25 15:51:46

I love you because you understand, dear
Every single thing I try to do
You're always there to lend a helping hand, dear
But most of all I love you 'cause you're you.

No matter what the world may say about me
I know your love will always see me through
I love you for the way you never doubt me
But most of all I love you 'cause you're you.

Grandyma Tue 26-Aug-25 10:47:03

To you, I'll give the world
To you, I'll never be cold
Because I feel that when I'm with you
It's alright, I know it's right
And the songbirds are singing
Like they know the score
And I love you, I love you, I love you
Like never before
And I wish you all the love in the world
But most of all, I wish it from myself
And the songbirds keep singing
Like they know the score
And I love you, I love you, I love you
Like never before, like never before

No New Year's Day to celebrate
No chocolate covered candy hearts to give away
No first of spring, no song to sing
In fact, here's just another ordinary day
No April rain
No flowers bloom
No wedding Saturday within the month of June
But what it is, is something true
Made up of these three words that I must say to you
I just called to say, I love you
I just called to say, how much I care
I just called to say, I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart

Grannmarie Mon 25-Aug-25 19:49:59

I found your picture today
I swear I'll change my ways
I just called to say
I want you to come back home.
I just called to say
I love you, come back home.

dayvidg Sun 24-Aug-25 22:17:07

There's alway lots of pretty girls
With figures they don't try to hide
But they never can compare
To the girl sittin' by my side
Saturday night at the movies
Who cares what picture you see
When you're huggin' with your baby
In the last row of the balcony?

Grandyma Sun 24-Aug-25 13:44:05

Shall I tell you about my life
They say I'm a man of the world
I've flown across every tide
And I've seen lots of pretty girls
I guess I've got everything I need
I wouldn't ask for more
And there's no one I'd rather be
But I just wish that I'd never been born
And I need a good woman
To make me feel like a good man should
I don't say I'm a good man
Oh, but I would be if I could

crazyH Sat 23-Aug-25 17:22:18

One day I’m gonna write
The story of my life
I’ll tell about the night we met
And how my heart can’t forget
The way you smiled at me
I’d like the world to know
The story of my life
And when your lips met mine
And that first exciting time
I held you close to me

Grannmarie Sat 23-Aug-25 01:11:36

This is the story of our first teacher
Shetland made her jumper and the devil made her features
Threw up her hands when our Mum said our names
Embroidered all her stories with scandalous claims,
It's over and done with, over and done with,
Over and done with, it's over and done with.

dayvidg Fri 22-Aug-25 18:58:29

They got no horns and they got no tail
They don't even know of our existence
Am I wrong to believe in the city of gold
That lies in the deep distance?

He cried and wept as they led him away to a cage
Beast that can talk, read the sign
The creatures, they pushed and they prodded his frame
And questioned his story again

But soon they grew bored of their prey
The beast that can talk
More like a freak or publicity stunt, oh oh, no no

Grannmarie Thu 21-Aug-25 17:15:53

Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck feelin' dirty and gritty
Been down, isn't it a pity,
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city...
All around, people looking half dead
Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head.
