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

There is nothing that is wrong
In wanting you to stay here with me
I know you've got somewhere to go
But won't you make yourself at home and stay with me?
And don't you ever leave
Lay down, Sally, and rest here in my arms
Don't you think you want someone to talk to?
Lay down, Sally, no need to leave so soon
I've been trying all night long just to talk to you
Sun ain't nearly on the rise
We still got the moon and stars above
Underneath the velvet skies
Love is all that matters, won't you stay with me?
Don't you ever leave

Lay lady lay, lay across my big brass bed,
Lay, lady, lay, lay while the night is still ahead.
I long to see you in the morning light
I long to reach for you in the night
Lay lady lay, lay across my big brass bed.

I can feel your body
When I'm lying in my bed
Too much confusion
Going round through my head
And it makes me so angry
To know that the flame still burns
Why can't I get over?
And when will I ever learn?
Old love, leave me alone
Old love, just go on home

Love for sale
Appetising young love for sale
If you want to buy my wares
Follow me and climb the stairs
Love for sale
Let the poets pipe of love
In their childish way
I know every type of love
Better far than they
If you want the thrill of love
I've been through the mill of love
Old love, new love
Every love but true love

How much is that doggie in the window 🐶
The one with the wag curly tail
How much is that doggie in the window
I do hope that doggie’s for sale

Well I'm the little red rooster
Too lazy to crow the day.
Well I'm the little red rooster
Too lazy to crow the day.
Keep everything in the barnyard
Upset in every way.

Dogs begin to bark
And the hounds began to howl.
Dogs begin to bark
The hounds began to howl.
Look out strange cat people
Yeah my rooster's on the prowl.
Aw, come on.

Dogs began to bark,
Ow, ow, ow! The hounds begin to howl.
Dogs begin to bark,
Ow, ow, ow! Oh, yeah...
Look out strange cat people
Yeah, he's on the prowl.
Yeah come on.

Well the old man passed me by
And he didn't hear me cry
I didn't know his name
And he didn't come again
The sun was coming out
And the kids began to shout
The dogs began to bark
In that lovely Paris park... OH!
In and out of the Red Balloon
Marry the farmers daughter
Sleepy heads in the afternoon
Callow la, callow la Vita

Well East coast girls are hip
I really dig those styles they wear
And the southern girls with the way they talk
They knock me out when I'm down there
The Midwest farmers daughters
Really make you feel alright
And northern girls with the way they kiss
They keep their boyfriends warm at night
I wish they all could be California girls
I wish they all could be California girls

Grandyma Mon 17-Feb-25 23:35:09

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

I met a redneck on a Grecian isle
Who did the goat dance very well
He gave me back my smile
But he kept my camera to sell
Oh the rogue the red red rogue
He cooked good omelettes and stews
And I might have stayed on with him there
But my heart cried out for you California

All the leaves are brown (all the leaves are brown)
And the sky is gray (and the sky is gray)
I've been for a walk (I've been for a walk)
On a winter's day (on a winter's day)
I'd be safe and warm (I'd be safe and warm)
If I was in L.A. (if I was in L.A.)
California dreaming ……..

Take a look at my girlfriend
She's the only one I got
Not much of a girlfriend
Never seem to get a lot
Take a jumbo across the water
Like to see America
See the girls in California
I'm hoping it's going to come true
But there's not a lot I can do

65KL Mon 17-Feb-25 03:27:27

Oh you gonna take me home tonight
Oh down by the red fire light
Oh you gonna let it all hang out
Fat bottomed girls you make the rockin world go round

I've been singing with my band
Cross the water cross the land
I've seen every blue eyed flozzy on the way
But their beauty and their style
Went kind of smooth after awhile
Take me to them dirty ladies every time

I build a fence around you in a father's way
I try to feel what it is you're going through
Cause I've played many ways
When you grow, how much will it take to slow you down…
Half the way?
Do my best to please you and I do what's right
I try to find each word that I'll say to you
When you come home tonight
And if so, how hard will we cry before our sound
Fades away?

Grandyma Fri 14-Feb-25 22:25:03

I'm so alone, my love without you
You're part of everything I do
When you come back, and you're beside me
These are the words I'll say to you
Welcome home, welcome
Come on in, and close the door
You've been gone, too long
Welcome, you're home once more
I thought of all the things I'd say to you
When you come back to me someday
When you are here and we're together
With all my heart you'll hear me say
Welcome home, welcome
Come on in, and close the door
You've been gone, too long
Welcome, you're home once more

Welcome my son, welcome to the machine.
Where have you been?
It's alright we know where you've been.
You've been in the pipeline, filling in time,
Provided with toys and 'Scouting for Boys'.
You brought a guitar to punish your ma,
You didn't like school, and you
Know you're nobody's fool,
So welcome to the machine.

crazyH Thu 13-Feb-25 22:14:01

Welcome to my world
Won’t you come on in
Miracles I guess
Just happen now and then
Step into my arms
Leave your cares behind
Welcome to my world
Built with you in mind

Grannmarie Thu 13-Feb-25 20:12:27

Woah, now go, walk out the door,
Just turn around now,
You're not welcome anymore.
Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye,
Did you think I'd crumble?
Did you think I'd lay down and die?
Oh no, not I, I will survive!

Grandyma Thu 13-Feb-25 15:24:14

I gave my heart and soul to you, girl
Didn't I do it baby, didn't I do it baby?
Gave you the love you never knew, girl
Didn't I do it baby, didn't I do it baby?
I've tried so many times and that's no lie
It seems to make you laugh each time I cry
Didn't I blow your mind this time, didn't I?
Didn't I blow your mind this time, didn't I?
Listen
I thought that heart of yours was true, girl
Now didn't I think it baby, didn't I think it baby?
But this time I'm really leavin' you, girl
Hope you know it baby, hope you know it baby
Ten times or more, yes, I've walked out that door
Get this into your head, there'll be no more
Didn't I blow your mind this time, didn't I?
Didn't I blow your mind this time, didn't I?
Didn't I do it baby, didn't I do it baby?
Didn't I do it baby, didn't I do it baby?

dayvidg Thu 13-Feb-25 15:13:01

I thought I could make you cry
And I tried now didn't I?
I didn't think that I would miss you
But it wasn't true, I do
And I told you before
A million times or more
That when you'd walk out that door
I would not love you any more
I do not love you any more
I lied now didn't I?
Oh didn't I?

Grandyma Thu 13-Feb-25 10:26:36

You'll never know just how much I miss you
You'll never know just how much I care
And if I tried, I still couldn't hide my love for you
You ought to know, for haven't I told you so
A million or more times?
You went away and my heart went with you
I speak your name in my every prayer
If there is some other way to prove that I love you
I swear I don't know how
You'll never know if you don't know now

dayvidg Wed 12-Feb-25 18:21:55

You'll never know how much I really love you
You'll never know how much I really care
Listen
Do you want to know a secret?
Do you promise not to tell?
Whoa, oh, oh
Closer
Let me whisper in your ear
Say the words you long to hear
I'm in love with you
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh ooh

Grandyma Wed 12-Feb-25 11:28:05

We seem like passing strangers now
How can you hurry by
There were never two who loved
Half as much as you and I
We seem like passing strangers now
Funny how things can change
We were so inseparable
Now you're acting very strange
The hands I used to touch
Don't even wave hello
How I miss your lips
You'll never know
If you would only turn to me
Speak my name just once more
You might find right there and then
Strangers can be lovers again

crazyH Wed 12-Feb-25 11:08:08

Strangers in the night exchanging glances
Wondering in the night
What were the chances we'd be sharing love
Before the night was through…

65KL Wed 12-Feb-25 08:55:29

People are strange when you are a stranger
Faces look ugly when you are alone
Women seen wicked when you're unwanted
Streets are uneven when you are down

When you're strange
Faces come out of the rain
When you're strange
Noone remembers you're name
When you're strange
When you're strange
When you're strange
