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

dayvidg Sat 12-Sept-26 15:29:05

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be
There's a shadow hanging over me
Oh, yesterday came suddenly
Why she had to go I don't know she wouldn't say
I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday

Grandyma Fri 11-Sept-26 22:25:57

You always love me more, miles away
I hear it in your voice, we're miles away
You're not afraid to tell me miles away
I guess we're at our best when we're miles away
So far away, so far away, so far away, so far away
So far away, so far away, so far away, so far away

Everybody seems to think I'm lazy
I don't mind, I think they're crazy
Running everywhere at such a speed
Till they find there's no need (There's no need)

Please, don't spoil my day, I'm miles away
And after all I'm only sleeping

Grandyma Fri 11-Sept-26 11:20:25

I'm looking over a four leaf clover
That I overlooked before
One leaf is sunshine, the second is rain
Third is the roses that grow in the lane

No need explaining
The one remaining is somebody I adore
I'm looking over a four leaf clover
That I overlooked before

dayvidg Thu 10-Sept-26 15:06:39

Ah, now I don't hardly know her
But I think I could love her
Crimson and clover
Ah when she comes walking over
Now I've been waitin' to show her
Crimson and clover over and over
Yeah, my, my such a sweet thing
I wanna do every thing
What a beautiful feeling
Crimson and clover over and over

Grandyma Wed 09-Sept-26 19:58:10

Tell me what's wrong with you now, tell me why I
Never seem to make you happy, though heaven knows I try
What does it take to please you?
Tell me just how
I can satisfy you, woman, you're drivin' me wild
Break up to make up, that's all we do
First you love me, then you hate me
That's a game for fools
Break up to make up, that's all we do
First you love me, then you hate me
That's a game for fools
Over and over and over and over

dayvidg Tue 08-Sept-26 14:47:42

The moment I wake up
Before I put on my makeup
I say a little prayer for you
While combing my hair, now,
And wondering what dress to wear, now,
I say a little prayer for you
Forever, and ever,
(you'll stay in my heart and I will love you)
(Forever) Forever, and ever,
(we never will part Oh, how I love you)
(Together) Together, together
(that's how it must be to live without you)
Would only mean heartbreak for me, ooh

Grandyma Mon 07-Sept-26 23:42:40

While I'm far away from you my baby
I know it's hard for you my baby
Because it's hard for me my baby
And the darkest hour is just before dawn
Each night before you go to bed my baby
Whisper a little prayer for me my baby
And tell all the stars above
This is dedicated to the one I love
(Love can never be exactly like we want it to be)
I could be satisfied knowing you love me
(And there's one thing I want you to do)
(Especially for me)
And it's something that everybody needs
While I'm far away from you my baby
Whisper a little prayer for me my baby
Because it's hard for me my baby
And the darkest hour is just before dawn

dayvidg Mon 07-Sept-26 15:23:08

In dreams, I walk with you
In dreams, I talk to you
In dreams, you're mine, all of the time
We're together in dreams, in dreams
But just before the dawn
I awake and find you gone
I can't help it, I can't help it if I cry
I remember that you said goodbye
It's too bad that all these things
Can only happen in my dreams
Only in dreams
In beautiful dreams

Grandyma Sun 06-Sept-26 23:43:36

Falling in love again
Never wanted to
What am I to do?
I can't help it

Love's always been my game
Play it how I may
I was made that way
I can't help it

Men cluster to me
Like moths around a flame
And if their wings burn
I know I'm not to blame

Falling in love again
Never wanted to
What am I to do?
I just can't help it

dayvidg Sun 06-Sept-26 15:54:52

Oh no
Here I go again
Fallin' in love again

Love is like a grain of sand
Slowly slippin' through your hand
Oh, oh, whoa
Whoa oh, Diane
Whoa oh, Diane

Will I love you?
I will
Always
Will you stand by me always?

Grandyma Sat 05-Sept-26 22:45:25

When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we'll see
No I won't be afraid
Oh, I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
So darling, darling
Stand by me, oh stand by me
Oh stand, stand by me
Stand by me
If the sky that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
Or the mountain should crumble to the sea
I won't cry, I won't cry
No, I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
And darling, darling
Stand by me, oh stand by me
Oh stand now, stand by me
Stand by me
Darling, darling
Stand by me, oh stand by me
Oh stand now, stand by me, stand by me
Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me
Oh stand by me, oh won't you stand now, stand
Stand by me...

He was born on easy streets
Played so hard his feet they
never touched the ground
Never felt afraid
Hour after shining hour
No thought of time no parents worrying
Innocent of fear

Now my, my, look at that sky
Closing his eyes on a new tomorrow
Hey, hey, Heaven's in tears
Crying for the disappeared

Grandyma Thu 03-Sept-26 10:41:20

And as the moon rises, he sits by his fire
Just thinking about women and glasses and beer
And closing his eyes as the dogies retire
He sings out a song which is soft but it's clear
Just as if maybe someone could hear
He says goodnight all you moonlight ladies
Rockabye, sweet baby James
Deep greens and blues for the colors I choose
Won't you let me go down in my dreams?
Yes, I rockabye sweet baby James

dayvidg Wed 02-Sept-26 13:56:41

Been dazed and confused for so long, it's not true
Wanted a woman, never bargained for you
Lots of people talkin', few of them know
Soul of a woman was created below, yeah
You hurt and abuse, tellin' all of your lies
Run 'round, sweet baby, Lord, how they hypnotize
Sweet little baby, I don't know where you been
Gonna love you, baby, here I come again

Grandyma Wed 02-Sept-26 11:17:44

Somebody's waitin' on the River Jordan
Somebody's waitin' on the other side
I cast my stones on the way to Heaven
But on the way, you know that I will abide
Yes, on the way, you know that I will abide
Yeah
Walk that line, boy
I'm amazed
I'm confused
I've been dazed, yeah (I've been dazed)
I've been used
Take me home to that golden river
Take me back to that other shore
I'll find my way to that peaceful playground
I know I'll find it 'cause I've been there before
I know I'll find it 'cause I've been there before

dayvidg Tue 01-Sept-26 15:45:44

If you, if you could get by
Trying not to lie
Things wouldn't be so confused
And I wouldn't feel so used
But you always really knew
I just wanna be with you
And I'm in so deep
You know I'm such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger?
Do you have to, do you have to
Do you have to let it linger?

Grandyma Mon 31-Aug-26 23:04:45

I find it very, very easy to be true
I find myself alone when each day is through
Yes, I'll admit that I'm a fool for you
Because you're mine, I walk the line
As sure as night is dark and day is light
I keep you on my mind both day and night
And happiness I've known proves that it's right
Because you're mine, I walk the line

dayvidg Mon 31-Aug-26 15:51:55

I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don't know where it goes
But it's home to me, and I walk alone
I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one, and I walk alone

Grandyma Mon 31-Aug-26 10:50:32

I walk along the road and past your door
And I remember things you said
I know in time it could
Have been so much more
But if you want to come back home
Go right ahead
But I don't believe in miracles
I don't believe in miracles
But I thought you might show your face
Or have the grace to tell me where you are
(tell me where you are)
I believe I was your game, your ball
(your ball)
If you threw me out then I would fall
So you won again, you win them all
But I believe I'd run to
You if you should call

dayvidg Sat 29-Aug-26 13:42:44

Don't believe me if I tell you
Not a word of this is true
Don't believe me if I tell you, especially if I tell you
I'm in love with you
Don't believe me if I tell you
That I wrote this song for you
There just might be some other silly pretty girl
I'm singing to
Don't believe a word
Words are only spoken
But your heart is like a promise
Made to be broken

Grandyma Sat 29-Aug-26 11:09:51

We're caught in a trap, I can't walk out
Because I love you too much, baby
Why can't you see what you're doin' to me
When you don't believe a word I say?

We can't go on together
With suspicious minds (With suspicious minds)
And we can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds

dayvidg Fri 28-Aug-26 14:19:53

She eyes me like a Pisces when I am weak
I've been locked inside your heart-shaped box for weeks
I've been drawn into your magnetar pit trap
I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn black

Hey!
Wait!
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice

Grandyma Thu 27-Aug-26 23:15:22

So far away
Doesn't anybody stay in one place any more?
It would be so fine to see your face at my door
Doesn't help to know you're just time away
Long ago I reached for you and there you stood
Holding you again could only do me good
How I wish I could
But you're so far away

dayvidg Wed 26-Aug-26 13:43:42

I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
