Elvis Presley - Love Me


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 your heart
Beatin' 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 (beg and steal)
Just to feel your heart
Beatin' 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

Neil Young - Only Love Can Break Your Heart


Only Love Can Break Your Heart
Neil Young
When you were young and on your own
How did it feel to be alone?
I was always thinking of games that I was playing.
Trying to make the best of my time.

But only love can break your heart
Try to be sure right from the start
Yes only love can break your heart
What if your world should fall apart?

I have a friend I've never seen
He hides his head inside a dream
Someone should call him and see if he can come out.
Try to lose the down that he's found.

But only love can break your heart
Try to be sure right from the start
Yes only love can break your heart
What if your world should fall apart?

I have a friend I've never seen
He hides his head inside a dream
Yes, only love can break your heart
Yes, only love can break your heart

Harry Belafonte - Jamaica Farewell


Down the way where the nights are gay
And the sun shines daily on the mountain top
I took a trip on a sailing ship
And when I reach Jamaica, I made a stop

But I'm sad to say, I'm on my way
Won't be back for many a day
My heart is down, my head is turning around
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town

Sounds of laughter everywhere
And the dancing girls swing to and through
I must declare my heart is there
Thou I've been from Maine to Mexico

But I'm sad to say, I'm on my way
Won't be back for many a day.
My heart is down, my head is turning around
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town

At the market you can hear ladies cry out
While on their heads they bear, acky rice, salt
Fish are nice and the rum is fine any time a year

But I'm sad to say, I'm on my way
Won't be back for many a day
My heart is down, my head is turning around
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town

Down the way where the nights are gay
And the sun shines daily on the mountain top
I took a trip on a sailing ship,
And when I reach Jamaica I made a stop

But I'm sad to say, I'm on my way
Won't be back for many a day
My heart is down, my head is turning around
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town

Sad to say, I'm on my way
Won't be back for many a day
My heart is down, my head is turning around
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston Town

Rolling Stones - As Tears Go By


It is the evening of the day,
I sit and watch the children play.
Smiling faces I can see
But not for me,
I sit and watch as tears go by.

My riches can't buy everything,
I want to hear the children sing.
All I hear is the sound
Of rain falling on the ground,
I sit and watch as tears go by.

It is the evening of the day,
I sit and watch the children play.
Doing things I used to do
They think are new,
I sit and watch as tears go by.

Johnny Mathis - It's Not For Me to Say


It's not for me to say you love me;
It's not for me to say you'll always care.
Oh, but here for the moment, I can hold you fast
And press you lips to mine
And dream that love will last.

*As far as I can see, this is heaven;
And speaking just for me, it's ours to share.
Perhaps the glow of love will grow
With ev'ry passing day,
Or we may never meet again.
But then, it's not for me to say.

(Instrumental interlude and pick up at *.)
