Ooh... baby, baby
Turn your head my way!
Ooh... baby, baby
Come on!
Well don't skip romance 'cause your old enough to
Dance the night away

Let peacoc ks and monkeys in purple adornings
Show her the way to my bridal chamber
Then get you gone 'til the morn of my mornings,
after the night of my nights....

Got no mansion
Got no yacht
Still I'm happy with what I got
I got the sun in the morning and the moon at night
I got the sun in the morning and the moon at night

The evening air
Doesn't feel quite right...
In the not-quite glare
Of the not-quite night,
And it's--
Wait! Is that a star?
No, just the glow of a cigar.
Oh.
The atmosphere's becoming heady,
The ambiance thrilling.
The spirits unsteady,
The flesh far from willing.
To be perpetually ready
Is far from fulfilling.
But wait! The sun is dipping.
Where?--You're right! It's dropping.
Look! At last it's slipping.
Sorry, my mistake, it's stopping.
Baby, baby
I'm aware of where you go
Each time you leave my door
I watch you walk down the street
Knowing your other love you'll meet
But this time before you run to her
Leaving me alone and hurt
(Think it over) After I've been good to you ?
(Think it over) After I've been sweet to you ?
Stop! In the name of love

I loved you even as I saw you
Even though it does not matter
That I still don't know your name
Say my name, Say my name
You actin' kind of shady
Ain't callin me 'baby'
Why the sudden change?

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(Turn and face the strange)
Ch-ch-changes
Oh, look out you rock ’n rollers
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(Turn and face the strange)
Ch-ch-changes
Pretty soon now you’re gonna get a little older
Time may change me
But I can’t trace time
I said that time may change me
But I can’t trace time
If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that I'd like to do
Is to save every day
Til' eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you
If I could make days last forever
If words could make wishes come true
I'd save every day like a treasure and then
Again, I would spend them with you

It’s still the same old story,
A fight for love and glory--
A case of do or die.
The world will always welcome lovers
As time goes by.
idon't know how to tell you,
but something went down last night
and this morning i finally got it right.
i've heard all your tear-stained stories
and learned to deliver up the same
i'll play the game.
cry
who taught you to cry?
was he the reason why
you put on such a sorry show of tears?
they made me take you back for years
but don't apologize
just forgive me when i cry.

Now you say you’re lonely
You cried the long night through
Well, you can cry me a river
Cry me a river
I cried a river over you
Now you say you’re sorry
For being so untrue
Well, you can cry me a river
Cry me a river

some people like to gamble
but you, you always lose
some people like to rock 'n' roll
you're always singin' the blues
you gotta nasty disposition
no one really knows the reason why
you gotta bad, bad reputation
gonna hang your head down and cry
you got bad, bad luck
bad, bad luck
you got bad, bad luck
bad, bad luck

Luck let a gentleman see
Just how nice a dame you can be
I know the way you’ve treated other guys you’ve been with
Luck be a lady with me
A lady never leaves her escort
It isn’t fair, it isn’t nice
A lady doesn’t wander all over the room
And blow on some other guys dice
Lets keep this party polite
Never get out of my sight
Stick with me baby, I’m the guy that you came in with
Luck be a lady tonight

Hey castle-builder
Want the moon, and nothing less?
Work for years, then overnight success
I know firsthand
Only in New York
It was so easy living day by day
Out of touch with the rhythm and the blues,
But now I need a little give and take,
The New York Times, the Daily News...

Like the beat beat beat of the tom-tom
When the jungle shadows fall
Like the tick tick tock of the stately clock
As it stands against the wall
Like the drip drip drip of the raindrops
When the summer shower is through
So a voice within me keeps repeating
You, you, you
Night and day, you are the one
Only you beneath the moon or under the sun
Whether near to me, or far
It's no matter darling where you are
I think of you
Day and night, night and day
I remember finding out about you
Every day my mind is all around you
Looking out from my lonely room, day after day
Bring it home, maybe someday soon
I give my love to you

And no, not a day goes by,
Not a blessed day,
But you're somewhere come in to my life
And you don't go away.
And I have to say
If you do I'll die.
I want day after day after day after day after day after day after day
'Till the days go by.
the coat she wore still lies upon the bed
the book i gave her that she never read
she left without a single word today
her father didn't like me anyway
she always wanted more than i could give
'cuz she wasn't happy with the way we lived
i suppose i should have begged with her to stay
her father didn't like me anyway

Please don't call a doctor, 'cause there's nothing wrong with me,
I just like things a little rough and you better not disagree.
'Cause I don't like a big softie, (no), I like someone mean and bossy,
Let me speak to you frankly, you better....
Doctor, my eyes have seen the years
And the slow parade of fears without crying
Now I want to understand
I have done all that I could
To see the evil and the good without hiding
You must help me if you can
