I'll be true to you, yes I
will
I'll be true to you, yes I will
I won't look twice when the other
girls go by
I'll be true to you, yes I will
Somehow this time it's oh so clear
to me
The way to go is easy to see
My heart is sure, you're the girl
I've waited for
I'll be true to you, yes I will
Yes I will, I used to be the kind
Who said that every girl's the
same
And that love was just a game for
havin' fun
But when I looked at you, I knew
that I was wrong
And that I really could belong to
only one
I'll be true to you, yes I will
Every dream that you have I'll
fulfill
I've never promised this to any
girl before
But I'll be true to you, yes I
will
I've never promised this to any
girl before
But I'll be true to you, yes I
will
Yes I will, yes I will, yes I
will, oh yes I will

Alive

Did you
ever see a man with no heart?
Baby, that was me
Just a lonely, lonely man with no
heart

Baby, I was wrong
No, I never knew a thing about
living

I can taste all the sugar
sweetness in your kiss
You give me all the things I've

If
I Needed Someone
(George
Harrison)
If I
needed someone to love
You're the one that I'd be
thinking of
If I needed someone
If I had some more time to spend
Then I'd guess I'd be with you my
friend
If I needed someone
Had you come some other day then
It might not have been like this
Can't you see how I'm too much in
love?
Carve your number on my wall
And maybe you will get a call from
me
If I needed someone
If I had some more time to spend
....
Had you come some other day then
....
Carve your number on my wall ....
If I needed someone

I
Can't Let Go
(Taylor/Gorgoni)
I try
and I try but I can't say goodbye
Feel so bad, baby, oh, it hurts me
When I think of how you love and
desert me
I'm the broken-hearted toy you
play with, baby
You got me going, I need you, baby
I can't let go and I want you,
baby
I gotta have you know, I can't let
go
Though I'm just one of your lovers
And I know that there are so many
others
You do something strange to me,
baby, baby
You got me going, I need you, baby
I can't let go and I want you,
baby
I gotta have you know, I can't let
go
I try and I try but I can't say
goodbye
Know that it's wrong and I should
be so strong
but the thought of you gone makes
me want to hold on
You got me going, I need you, baby
I can't let go and I want you,
baby
I gotta have you know, I can't let
go
You got me going, I need you, baby
I can't let go and I want you,

Bus
Stop
(Graham
Gouldman)
Bus
stop - wet day - she's there - I
say
'Please share my umbrella'
On bus stop - bus goes - she stays
- love grows
Under my umbrella
All that summer we enjoyed it, the
wind and rain and shine
And that umbrella we employed it,
by august she was mine
Ev'ry mornin' I would see her
waiting at the stop
Sometimes she'd shop
And she would show me what she'd
bought
All the people stared as if we
were both quite insane
Some day my name and hers are
going to be the same
That's the way the whole thing
started, silly - but it's true
I'm thinking of a sweet romance
beginning in a queue
Came the sun, the ice was melting,
no more sheltering now
Nice to think that that umbrella
led me to a vow
Ev'ry mornin' I would see her
waiting at the stop
Sometimes she'd shop
And she would show me what she'd
bought
All the people stared as if we
were both quite insane
Some day my name and hers are
going to be the same
Bus stop - wet day - she's there -
I say
'Please share my umbrella' ....

Stop,
Stop, Stop
(A.
Clarke/G. Nash)
See the
girl with cymbals on her fingers
Entering through the door
Ruby glistening from her navel
Shimmering around the floor
Bells on feet go ting-a-ling-a-linging
Going through my head
Sweat is falling just-a like-a
teardrops
Running from her head
Now she dancing, going through the
movements
Swaying to and fro
Body moving, bringing back a
memory
Thoughts of long ago
Blood is rushing, temperature is
rising
Sweating from my brow
Like a snake, her body fascinates
me
I can't look away now
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing
Give me time to breathe
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing
Or I'll have to leave
Now she's moving all around the
tables
Luring all in sight
But I know that she cannot see me
Hidden by the light
Closer, closer she is getting
nearer
Soon she'll be in reach
As I enter into a spotlight
She stands lost for speech
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing
Give me time to breathe
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing
Or I'll have to leave
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing
Give me time to breathe
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing
Or I'll have to leave
Now I hold her, people are staring
Don't know what to think
And we struggle, knocking over
tables
Spilling all the drinks
Can't they understand that I want
her
Happens every week
Heavy hand upon my collar
Throws me in the street
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing
Give me time to breathe
Stop, stop, stop all the dancing
Or I'll have to leave

On
A Carousel
(Clarke/Nash/Hicks)
Riding
along on a carousel, trying to
catch up to you
Riding along on a carousel, will I
catch up to you?
Horses chasing 'cause they're
racing
So they ain't so far
On a carousel, on a carousel
Nearer and nearer by changing
horses, still so far away
People fighting for their places
just get in my way
Soon you'll leave and then I'll
lose you, still we're going round
On a carousel, on a carousel
Round and round and round and
round
Round and round and round and
round with you
Up, down, up, down, up, down, too
As she leaves, she drops the
presents that she won before
Pulling ducks out of the water,
got the highest score
Now's my chance and I must take
it, a case of do-or-die
On a carousel, on a carousel
Round and round and round and
round
Round and round and round and
round with you
Up, down, up, down, up, down, too
Riding along on a carousel, trying
to catch up to you
Riding along on a carousel, will I
catch up to you?
Now we take our ride together
No more chasing her
On a carousel, on a carousel ....

Hey
Carrie Anne - hey Carrie Anne
When we were at school our games
were simple
I played the janitor you played a
monitor
Then you played with older boys
and prefects
What's the attraction in what
they're doing?
Hey Carrie Anne, what's your game
now
Can anybody play
Hey Carrie Anne, what's your game
now
Can anybody play
You're always something special to
me
Quite independent - never caring
You lost your charm as you were
aging
Where is your magic dissappearing
Hey Carrie Anne, what's your game
now
Can anybody play
Hey Carrie Anne, what's your game
now
Can anybody play
You're so, so like a woman to me
So like a woman to me
So, so like a woman to me
So like a woman to me
Hey Carrie Anne ....
People live and learn but you're
still learning
You use my mind and I'll be your
teacher
When the lesson's over you'll be
with me
Then I'll hear the other people
saying
Hey Carrie Anne ....
Carrie Anne, Carrie Anne, Carrie

Dear
Eloise
(A.
Clarke/T. Hicks/G. Nash)
Dear
Eloise, I am writing to say
A number of funny things I heard
today
I heard that he's left you and run
off to sea
Could be the best thing that's
happened to me
Two three four
Writing a letter to make you feel
better
Sorry to hear that he left you
that way
I could have told ya, he was much
older
So much older than you
You rushed in blindly, he treated
you kindly
Until he found out what he could
get from you
You should have departed before he
got started
Now you've been burned just like I
said you would
Please read my letter closely
It's beneficial to you
You must read in-between the lines
A message you will see
If you use your mind, you'll find
I want you back with me
Writing a letter to make you feel
better
Sorry to hear that he left you
that way
I could have told ya, he was much
older
So much older than you
So much older than you, so much
older than you
Dear Eloise, I am writing to say

White
chalk, written on red brick
Our love, told in a heart
It's there, drawn in the
playground
Love, kiss, hate or adore
I love Jennifer Eccles
I know that she loves me
I love Jennifer Eccles
I know that she loves me
La la la la la la la ....
I used to carry her satchels
She used to walk by my side
But when we got to her doorstep
Her dad wouldn't let me inside
One Monday morning, found out I'd
made the grade
Started me thinking, had she done
the same?
La la la la la la la ....
One Monday morning, found out I'd

I love Jennifer Eccles ....

Listen
To Me
(T. Hazzard)
Listen
to me, I'll sing a song to change
your mind
Have you ever wondered why when
everything goes wrong
Nobody stops to lend a hand,
nobody seems to care?
Then she looks you in the eye and
suddenly you're strong
And very soon you realize that you
didn't care about love
Listen to me, I'll sing a song to
change your mind
Your ears are deaf, your mouth is
dumb, your eyes are blind
Listen to me and very soon I think
you'll find
Somebody wants to help you,
somebody seems to care
And very soon you've forgotten
that you didn't care about love
Does it hurt to realize you've
been acting very strange
Refusing to take the love she
gives, pretending you don't care?
Did it take you by surprise to
discover how you'd changed
How you forgot to remember that
you didn't care about love?
Listen to me, I'll sing a song to
change your mind
Your ears are deaf, your mouth is
dumb, your eyes are blind
Listen to me and very soon I think
you'll find
Somebody wants to help you,
somebody seems to care
And very soon you've forgotten
that you didn't care about love

Sorry
Suzanne
(G.

I can't
make it if you leave me
I'm sorry Suzanne, believe me, I
was wrong
And I knew I was all along
Forgive me
I still love you, more than ever
I'm sorry Suzanne, for ever
hurting you
You know I never wanted to
I'm truly sorry, Suzanne
I could never ever justify
All the tears I made you cry
But I do regret it, my Suzanne
You gotta believe me
I was lookin' 'round for someone
new
What a foolish thing to do
All the time I knew it
Heaven knows what made me do it,
girl
I can't make it if you leave me
I'm sorry Suzanne, believe me, I
was wrong
And I knew I was all along, all
along
I'm truly sorry, Suzanne
If you would only take me back
again
Things would be so different then
What I wouldn't give for
One more chance to live for you,
Suzanne
I can't make it if you leave me
I'm sorry Suzanne, believe me, I
was wrong
And I knew I was all along
Forgive me
I still love you, more than ever
I'm sorry Suzanne, for ever
hurting you
You know I never wanted to
I'm truly sorry, Suzanne

He
Ain't Heavy ... He's My Brother
(Bobby
Scott/Bob Russell)
The
road is long with a many a winding
turn
That leads us to who knows where,
who knows where
But I'm strong, strong enough to
carry him
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
So on we go, his welfare is my
concern
No burden is he to bear, we'll get
there
For I know he would not encumber
me
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
If I'm laden at all, I'm laden
with sadness
That ev'ryone's heart isn't filled
with the gladness
Of love for one another
It's a long, long road from which
there is no return
While we're on the way to there,
why not share?
And the load doesn't weigh me down
at all
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
He's my brother - he ain't heavy -
he's my brother
He ain't heavy - he's my brother
