This is one of my favorite songs....
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6yPSeDlcrI Seasons of Love 525,600 minutes, 525,000 moments so dear. 525,600 minutes - how do you measure, measure a year? In daylights, in sunsets, in midnights, in cups of coffee. In inches, in miles, in laughter, in strife. In 525,600 minutes - how do you measure a year in the life? How about love? How about love? How about love? Measure in love. Seasons of love. 525,600 minutes! 525,000 journeys to plan. 525,600 minutes - how can you measure the life of a woman or man? In truths that she learned, Or in times that he cried. In bridges he burned, Or the way that she died.... It's time now to sing out, the story never ends let's celebrate remember a year in the life of friends. How about love! How about love! How about love! Measure in love. Seasons of love! Seasons of love. |
John Denver :
Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy. Susnshine in my eye can make me cry. Sunshine on the water looks so lovely Sunhine almost always makes me high If I had a day that I could give you I’d give to you a day just like today If I had a song that I could sing for you I’d sing a song to make you feel this way -------------------------------------------------------------------- Ballad Of The Green Berets by SSgt Barry Sadler Fighting soldiers from the sky Fearless men who jump and die Men who mean just what they say The brave men of the Green Beret Silver wings upon their chest These are men, America's best One hundred men we'll test today But only three win the Green Beret Trained to live, off nature's land Trained in combat, hand to hand Men who fight by night and day Courage deep, from the Green Beret Silver wings upon their chest These are men, America's best One hundred men we'll test today But only three win the Green Beret Back at home a young wife waits Her Green Beret has met his fate He has died for those oppressed Leaving her this last request Put silver wings on my son's chest Make him one of America's best He'll be a man they'll test one day Have him win the Green Beret --------------------------------------------------------------- The Marvelous Toy by Peter Paul and Mary It went "Zip" when it moved, and "Bop" when it stopped, and "Whirrr" when it stood still. I never knew just what it was and I guess I never will. _______________________________________ Moody Blues - I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band Music is the traveller crossing our world Meeting so many people bridging the seas I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band. We're just the singers in a rock and roll band. I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band... _________________________________ All Night Long-- Eagles We get up early and we work all day We put our time in 'cause we like to stay up All night long We keep on grinnin' till the weekend comes Just a pinch between your cheek and gum All night long, all night long Start in the morning and get the job done Take care of bus'ness and we have some fun All night long, all night long We like a long neck and a good old song Turn it up and then we sing along Sing along We're all stayin' up all night long All night long All night long All night long All night long ________________________ Dancing Queen ABBA You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeen Dancing Queen, feel the beat, from the tambourine oh yeah You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life Ooo.. see that girl, watch that scene, diggin' the Dancing Queen _________________ Elenor Rigby BEATTLES All the lonely people Where do they all come from ? All the lonely people Where do they all belong ? __________________________ Rubber Ducky you're the one You make bathtime so much fun |

The North, South, East and West of your life. I have only one request of your life... That you spend it all with me. I want to see your face in every kind of light In fields of dawn and forests of the night. And when you stand before the candles of a cake Please let me be the one who hears the silent wish you make. Sung by Frank Sinatra, but I don't know the composer. |

Ain’t That Lonely Yet Dwight Yokham
What Might Have Been Little Texas Amarillo By Morning George Strait Don’t Need No Memories Hangin’ ‘Round Roseanne Cash & Bobby Bare Go Rest High On That Mountain Vince Gill I know your life On earth was troubled And only you could know the pain You weren't afraid to face the devil You were no stranger to the rain Go rest high on that mountain ‘Cause, Son, your work on earth is done Go to Heaven a shoutin' Love for the Father and the Son Oh, how we cried the day you left us And gathered round your grave to grieve Wish I could see the angels’ faces When they hear your sweet voice sing Go rest high on that mountain ‘Cause, Son, your work on earth is done Go to Heaven a shoutin' Love for the Father and the Son Go rest high on that mountain ‘Cause, Son, your work on earth is done Go to Heaven a shoutin' Love for the Father and the Son Tag: Go to Heaven a shoutin' Love for the Father and the Son (Written about Keith Whitley another awesome singer) 16TH AVENUE Lacy J. Dalton - 1982 (Tom Schuyler) From the corners of the country From the cities and the farms With years and years of livin' Tucked up underneath their arms They walked away from everything Just to see a dream come true So, God bless the boys who make the noise On 16th Avenue With a million dollar spirit And an old flat-top guitar They drive to town with all they own In a hundred dollar car `Cause one time someone told them About a friend of a friend they knew Who owns, you know, a studio On 16th Avenue Now some are born to money They've never had to say "Survive" And others swing a nine-pound hammer Just to stay alive There's cowboys, drunks and Christians Mostly white and black and blue They've all dialed the phone collect to home From 16th Avenue Ah, but then one night in some empty room Where no curtains ever hung Like a miracle some golden words Roll off of someone's tongue And after years of being nothin' They're all looking right at you And for a while they'll go in style On 16th Avenue Hey, it looks so uneventful So quiet and discreet But a lot of lives where changed Down on that little one-way street `Cause they walked away from everything Just to see a dream come true So, God bless the boys who make the noise On 16th Avenue From the corners of the country From the cities and the farms With years and years of livin' Tucked up underneath their arms They walked away from everything Just to sing for me and you.........FADE Good Ole Boys Don Williams Only Make Believe Conway Twitty Someday Soon Suzzy Boggus |
