L.O.V.E.

I started to write this song about you
And then I decided that I would write it all about love
And it appeared to me
That you wasn't happy
And that's for sure, positively
That's what the world is made of
So give me more L-O-V-E, love
Love is a walk down Main street (oh love)
Love is an apple that is so sweet (love)
Love is something that can't be beat (love)
L-O-V-E is strange to me, oh
I can't explain this feeling
Can't you see that salvation is freeing
It's all in the heavens, can't you see
You can always depend on me
To give you love
Love is a flower in my soul (oh love)
Love is a story that just can't be told (love)
Can't you feel it burning more and more (love)
Stop and look at the big wheel roll
I can't explain this feeling
Can't you see that salvation is freeing
I would give my life for the glory
Just to be able to tell the story
About love
I didn't mean to make you mad
A sweet story, I thought I had
But maybe time will bring us together
And I can be such a happy fella
About love
Love is something that is so divine (oh love)
Love is a feeling that's a friend of mine (love)
It can't be measured by no sign (love)
In your heart or even in your mind
About love, Love is as bright as the morning sun

Estate
You bath me in the glow of your caresses
You turn my timid no to eager yeses
You sweep away my sorrow with your sigh
Estate
Oh how your golden sunlight bends
the willow
Your blossoms send the perfume
to my pillow
Oh who could know
you half as well as I
I always feel you near me
In every song
the morning breeze composes
In all the tender wonder of the roses
Each time a setting sun
smiles on the sea
Estate
And when you sleep beneath a snowy cover
I'll keep you in my heart
just like a lover
And wait until you come again to me
Estate
Oh how your golden sunlight bends
the willow
Your blossoms send the perfume
to my pillow
Oh who could know
you half as well as I
I always feel you near me
In every song
the morning breeze composes
In all the tender wonder of the roses
Each time a setting sun
smiles on the sea
Estate
And when you sleep beneath a snowy cover
I'll keep you in my heart
just like a lover
And wait until you come again to me

There will be many other nights like this
And I'll be standing here with someone new
There will be other songs to sing
Another fall, another spring
But there will never be another you
There will be other lips that I may kiss
But they won't thrill me like yours used to do
Yes, I may dream a million dreams
But how can they come true
If there will never ever be another you?
Yes, I may dream a million dreams
But how can they come true
If there will never ever be another you?

If You Were Mine

If you were mine
I could be a ruler of kings
And if you were mine
I could do such wonderful things
I'd say to a star
Stop where you are
Light up my lover's way
And every star above you
Would obey, say
If you were mine
I would live for your love alone
To kneel at your shrine
I would give up all that I own
Yes even my heart
Even my life
I'd trade it all for you
And think I was lucky too
If you were mine

Teach Me Tonight

Did you say I've got a lot to learn?
Well, don't think, I'm tryin' not to learn
Since this is the perfect spot to learn
Oh, teach me tonight
Let's start with the A B C of it
Roll right down to the X Y Z of it
Help me solve the mystery of it
Teach me tonight
The sky's a black board
High above you
If a shooting star goes by
I'll use that star to write I love you
A thousand times across the sky
One thing isn't very clear, my love
Should the teacher stand so near, my love?
Graduation's almost here, my love
Come on and teach me tonight
I'll use that star to write I love you
A thousand times across the sky
One thing isn't very clear, my love
Should the teacher stand so near, my love?
Graduation's almost here, my love
Teach me, please, teach me tonight

A sailboat in the moonlight and you
Wouldn't that be heaven
A heaven just for two
A soft breeze on a June night and you
What a perfect setting
For letting dreams come true
A chance to sail away
To Sweetheart Bay
Beneath the stars that shine
A chance to drift
For you to lift
Your tender lips to mine
Some things dear
That I long for are few
Just give me a sailboat
In the moonlight and you
A chance to sail away
To Sweetheart Bay
Beneath the stars that shine
A chance to drift
For you to lift
Your tender lips to mine
Some things dear
That I long for are few
Just give me a sailboat
In the moonlight and you

A day in the life of a fool
A sad and a long lonely day
I walk the avenue
Hoping to run into
The very sight of you coming my way
I stop just in front of our door
But you're never there any more
So back to my room
And here in the gloom
I cry tears of goodbye
Til you come back to me
That's the way it will be
Everyday in the life of a fool

I'm Old Fashioned
04:11

I am not such a clever one about the latest fads
I admit I was never one adored by local lads
Not that I ever tried to be a saint
I'm the type that they classify as quaint
I'm old fashioned, I love the moonlight
I love the old fashioned things
The sound of rain upon a window pane
The starry song that April sings
This years fancies are passing fancies
But sighing sighs, holding hands
These my heart understands
I'm old fashioned but I don't mind it
That's how I want to be
As long as you agree
To stay old fashioned with me.
I'm old fashioned but I don't mind it
That's how I want to be
As long as you agree
To stay old fashioned with me.
