Uptown Girl

Uptown girl
She’s been living in her uptown world
I bet she’s never had a backstreet guy
I bet her momma never told her why
I’m gonna try for an uptown girl
She’s been living in her white-bred world
As long as anyone with hot blood can
And now she’s looking for a downtown man
That’s what I am
And when she knows what
She wants from her time
And when she wakes up
And makes up her mind
She’ll see I’m not so tough
Just because
I’m in love with an uptown girl
You know I’ve seen her in her uptown world
She’s getting tired of her high-class toys
And all her presents from her uptown boys
She’s got a choice
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Uptown girl
You know I can’t afford to buy her pearls
But maybe someday when my ship comes in
She’ll understand what kind of guy I’ve been
And then I’ll win
And when she’s walking
She’s looking so fine
And when she’s talking
She’ll say that she’s mine
She’ll say I’m not so tough
Just because
I’m in love
With an uptown girl
She’s been living in her white-bred world
As long as anyone with hot blood can
And now she’s looking for a downtown man
That’s what I am
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Uptown girl
She’s my uptown girl
You know I’m in love
With an uptown girl
My uptown girl
You know I’m in love
With an uptown girl
My uptown girl
You know I’m in love
With an uptown girl
My uptown girl
You know I’m in love
With an uptown girl

Swingin’ My Love

And when I go away
I know my heart can stay with my love
It’s understood
It’s in the hands of my love
And my love does it good
Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa
Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa
My love does it good
And when the cupboard’s bare
I’ll still find something there with my love
It’s understood
It’s everywhere with my love
And my love does it good
Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa
Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa
My love does it good
Whoa-whoa, I love, oh-whoa, my love
Only my love holds the other key to me
Oh-whoa, my love, oh-oh, my love
Only my love does it good to me
Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa
Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa
My love does it good
Don’t ever ask me why
I never say goodbye to my love
It’s understood
It’s everywhere with my love
And my love does it good
Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa
Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa
My love does it good
Whoa-whoa, I love, oh-whoa, my love
Only my love does it good to me
Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa-
Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa

Let’s Stay Together

clear glass candle holder
I’m, I’m so in love with you
Whatever you want to do
Is all right with me
‘Cause you make me feel so brand new
And I want to spend my life with you
Let me say that since, baby
Since we’ve been together
Ooh
Loving you forever
Is what I need
Let me be the one you come running to
I’ll never be untrue
Ooh baby
Let’s, let’s stay together (Together)
Loving you whether, whether
Times are good or bad, happy or sad
Ooh, ooh, yeah
Whether times are good or bad, happy or sad
Why, somebody, why people break-up
Oh, turn around and make-up?
I just can’t deceive
You’d never do that to me (Would you, baby?)
Stayin’ around you is all I see
(Here’s what I want us to do)
Let’s, we oughta stay together (Together)
Loving you whether, whether
Times are good or bad, happy or sad, come on
Let’s, let’s stay together
Loving you whether, whether
Times are good or bad, happy or sad
Let’s Stay Together

Don’t Worry Baby

Well it’s been building up inside of me
For, oh, I don’t know how long
I don’t know why but I keep thinking
Something’s bound to go wrong

But she looks in my eyes
And makes me realize
When she says “Don’t worry baby”
Don’t worry baby (Don’t worry baby)
Everything will turn out alright (Don’t worry baby)
Don’t worry baby (Don’t worry baby)

I guess I should’ve kept my mouth shut
When I started to brag about my car
But I can’t back down now because
I pushed the other guys too far

She makes me come alive
And makes me wanna drive
When she says “Don’t worry baby”
Don’t worry baby (Don’t worry baby)
Everything will turn out alright (Don’t worry baby)
Don’t worry baby (Don’t worry baby)

She told me “Baby, when you race today
Just take along my love with you
And if you knew how much I loved you, baby
Nothing could go wrong with you”

Oh what she does to me
When she makes love to me
And she says “Don’t worry baby”
Don’t worry baby (Don’t worry baby)
Everything will turn out alright (Don’t worry baby)
Don’t worry baby (Don’t worry baby)
Everything will turn out alright (Don’t worry baby)
Don’t worry baby (Don’t worry baby)

I Just Called To Say I Love You

photo of red telephone booth under blue sky

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
No summer’s high, no warm July
No harvest moon to light one tender August night
No autumn breeze, no falling leaves
Not even time for birds to fly to southern skies
No Libra sun, no Halloween
No giving thanks to all the Christmas joy you bring
But what it is, though old, so new
To fill your heart like no three words could ever do
I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care, I do
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart
I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care, I do
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart
Of my heart
Of my heart (baby, of my heart)

Skylark

brown and white bird perched on brown tree branch

Skylark,
Have you anything to say to me?
Won’t you tell me where my love can be?
Is there a meadow in the mist
Where someone’s waiting to be kissed?
Oh, skylark,
Have you seen a valley green with spring?
Where my heart can go a journeying
Over the shadows and the rain
To a blossom covered lane
And in your lonely flight
Haven’t you heard the music in the night?
Wonderful music
Faint as a will o’ the wisp
Crazy as a loon
Sad as a gypsy serenading the moon
Oh, skylark,
I don’t know if you can find these things
But my heart is riding on your wings
So if you see them anywhere
Won’t you lead me there?
Oh, skylark,
Won’t you lead me there?

My Girl

I’ve got sunshine on a cloudy day
When it’s cold outside
I’ve got the month of May
I guess you’d say
What can make me feel this way
My girl, my girl, my girl
Talkin’ ’bout my girl
My girl
I’ve got so much honey
The bees envy me
I’ve got a sweeter song
Than the birds in the trees
Well, I guess you’d say
What can make me feel this way
My girl, my girl, my girl
Talkin’ ’bout my girl
My girl
Ohh ohh
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Oh yeah
I don’t need no money, fortune, or fame
I’ve got all the riches baby one man can claim
Well I guess you’d say
What can make me feel this way
My girl, my girl, my girl
Talkin’ ’bout my girl, my girl, talkin’ ’bout my girl
I’ve got sunshine on a cloudy day with my girl
I’ve even got the month of May with my girl
Talkin’ ’bout, talkin’ ’bout, talkin’ ’bout

Tears in Heaven

frozen wave against sunlight

Would you know my name

If I saw you in heaven?

Would it be the same

If I saw you in heaven?

I must be strong

And carry on

‘Cause I know, I don’t belong

Here in heaven

Would you hold my hand

If I saw you in heaven?

Would you help me stand

If I saw you in heaven?

I’ll find my way

Through night and day

‘Cause I know, I just can’t stay

Here in heaven

Time can bring you down

Time can bend your knees

Time can break your heart

Have you begging please

Begging please

Beyond the door

There’s peace, I’m sure

And I know there’ll be no more

Tears in heaven

Would you know my name

If I saw you in heaven?

Would it be the same

If I saw you in heaven?

I must be strong

And carry on

‘Cause I know, I don’t belong

Here in heaven

‘Cause I know, I don’t belong

Here in heaven
