I fell in love the night I came ashore
You’re what I’d wanted, what I’d waited for
I built my dreams too high it seems that now
The things I wanted turned out wrong somehow.
The dawn will find me sailing back to sea
But I when I sail I’ll leave a part of me
Though you’re untrue what can I do I love you
I can’t forget you o’er the night I came ashore.

The dawn will find me sailing back (more…)
It was easy to pick me up, easy to put me down
It was easy to give you all the love I had
And it was easy for you to make me think
I had made the grass turn green
‘Cause the little love you gave me
Was more than I had seen
Helen, it hurts when I try to be strong
When most of the reasons for livin’ are gone
Well you got me where you want me, a lonely cryin’ clown
And you’ve (more…)
The same old island echoes
Are stealing through the trees
They bring back moments tender
To fill my memory
Now I’m alone in moonlight
That you and I had shared
Pretending we’re together
Remembering how you cared
The laughter and the good times
The many things we planned
The romance in the moonlight
Castles in the sand
I love those island echoes
Echoes they must be
Till some glad tomorrow
When you come back to me
The laughter and the good times
The many things we planned
Romance in the moonlight
Castles in the sand

You love him I know but I won’t let you go
I just won’t step out of the way
‘Cause you’re married to me and I won’t set you free
Posession is nine-tenths of the law so they say
I’ll keep you as long as I possibly can
You were mine before he came our way
I refuse to abide and I won’t step aside
Posession is nine-tenths of the law so they say
Forgive me for bein’ so selfish
But for me there is (more…)
One starry night
In a little town in Old Mexico
I found my love
Down by the sea, where soft trade winds blow
She came in the night
With perfume that sweetened the air
And I lost my heart
To the girl with gardenias in her hair
I glanced her way
She smiled and my heart started to sing
She came into my arms
And the night became a sweet, magic thing
When I held her close
I knew I’d follow her anywhere
And I lost my heart
To the girl (more…)
Don’t worry ’bout me, it’s all over now
Though I may be blue, I’ll manage somehow.
Love can’t be explained, can’t be controled
One day it’s warm, next day it’s cold.
Don’t pity me, ’cause I’m feeling blue
Don’t be ashamed it might happen to you.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, love, kiss me
One time then go love, I’ll understand
Don’t worry ’bout me.
— Instrumental —
Sweet, sweet, sweet, love will I want you to be
As happy as I when you love me
I’ll never (more…)
I don’t know why I love you like I do
I don’t know why I just do
I don’t know why you thrill me like you do
I don’t know why but you do
You never seem to want my romancin’
And the only time ya hold me is when we’re dancin’
I don’t know why I love you like I do
I don’t know why I just do
You never seem to want my romancin’
And the only time ya hold me is when (more…)
You’re the only star in my blue heaven
And you’re shining just for me
You’re the only star in my blue heaven
And in dreams your face I see.
You’re the guiding light that brightens up the night
Till you haven’t sight my heart is lonely
You’re the only star in my blue heaven
And you’re shining just for me
(You’re the only star in my blue heaven
And you’re shining just for me)
You’re the guiding light that brightens up the night
Till you haven’t sight (more…)
Well when I come home this morning
Was still too dark to see
I could tell that baby wasn’t sleepin’ next to me
She’s gone and left me
Where to, I guess I’ll never know
I only know her leavin’s brought pain and misery to my soul
Well a note was on the pillow
She’s gone without a doubt
I tried to read her writin’ but I couldn’t make it out
The tears were fallin’
Too fast for me to even read
Nobody knows my sorrow, nobody (more…)
This is our last goodbye
The curtain is descending
This is our last goodbye
The show has had it’s run
Now it’s ending
I was not the star but
Mine was an important part
I gave all that I could give
There was nothin’ left to give
After I gave my heart
This is our last goodbye
I’ll leave the stage in laughter
I just can’t let her see
The fool she’s made of me
The tears come after
I’ve rehearsed so much that I
Can’t leave the stage and never cry
This (more…)
