END OF THE WORLD
(Arthur Kent - Sylvia Dee)
« © '62 Edward Proffitt Music, ASCAP / Music Sales, ASCAP »
Why does the sun go on shining why does the sea rush to shore
Don't they know it's the end of the world cause you don't love me anymore
Why do the birds go on singing why do the stars glow above
Don't they know it's the end of the world it ended when I lost your love
I wake up in the morning and I wonder why everything's the same as it was
I can't understand no I can't understand why life goes on the way it does
Why does my heart go on beating why do these eyes of mine cry
Don't they know it's the end of the world it ended when you said goodbye

MAKE THE WORLD GO AWAY
(Hank Cochran)
« © '63 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Make the world go away and get it off my shoulder
Say the things you used to say and make the world go away
Do you remember when you loved me before the world took me astray
If you do then forgive me and make the world go away
Make the world go away...
I'm sorry if I hurt you I'll make it up day by day
Just say you love me like you used to and make the world go away
Make the world go away...
Say the things you used to say and make the world go away

ONCE A DAY
(Bill Anderson)
« © '64 Johnny Bienstock Music, BMI »
(Once a day every day all day long)
When I found somebody new I thought I never would
Forget you for then I thought I never could
But time has taken all the pain away
Until now I'm down to hurtin' once a day
Once a day all day long
And once a night from dusk till dawn
The only time I wish you weren't gone
Is once a day every day all day long
I'm so glad that I'm not like a guy I knew one time
He lost the one he loved then slowly lost his mind
He sat around and cried his life away
Lucky me I'm only crying once a day
Once a day all day long...
Once a day all day long

FADED LOVE
(Bob Wills - John Wills)
« © '51 Anne Rachel Music, ASCAP »
As I look at the letters that you wrote to me
It's you that I am thinking of
As I read the lines that to me were so sweet
I remember our faded love
I miss you darling more and more every day
As heaven would miss the stars above
With every heartbeat I still think of you
And remember our faded love
As I think of the past and all the pleasures we had
As I watch the mating of the dove
It was in the springtime when you said goodbye
I remember our faded love
I miss you darling more and more...
I remember our faded love

IT KEEPS RIGHT ON A HURTIN'
(Johnny Tillotson)
« © '61 Ridge Music, BMI »
(And it keeps right on a hurtin' since you're gone)
I cry myself to sleep at night wishing I could hold you tight
Life seems so empty since you went away
The pillow where you lay your head now holds my lonely tears instead
And it keeps right on a hurtin' since you're gone
It keeps right on a hurtin' every minute of the day
Every hour you're away I feel so lonely
I can't help it I don't think I can go on
And it keeps right on a hurtin' since you're gone
They say a man should never cry but when I see you passin' by
My heart breaks down and cries a million tears
You broke my heart then set me free but you forgot your memory
And it keeps right on a hurtin' since you're gone
It keeps right on a hurtin' every minute of the day...
Yes it keeps right on a hurtin' since you're gone (since you're gone)

SHE THINKS I STILL CARE
(Dickey Lee - Steve Duffy)
« © '62 Glad Music, BMI / Pappy Daily Music, BMI / Songs Of PolyGram, BMI »
Just because I asked a friend about her
Just because I spoke her name somewhere
Just because I rang her number by mistake today
Ahe thinks I still care
Just because I haunt the same old places
Where the mem'ry of her lingers everywhere
Just because I'm not the happy guy I used to be
She thinks I still care
But if she's happy thinking I still need her
Then let that silly notion bring her cheer
But how could she ever be so foolish
Oh where could she get such an idea
Just because I asked a friend about her
Just because I spoke her name somewhere
Just bacause I saw her then went all to pieces
She thinks I still care
Ah she thinks I still care

TRUE LOVE'S A BLESSING
(Sonny James - Carole Smith)
« © '66 Mike Curb Music, BMI »
True love's a blessing true love's a wonderful blessing
True love's a blessing wait and see
When you found a right girl you found the pricest pearl
True love's a blessing yes siree
Some girls love for money some make love a game
Some girls use their love a stepping stones to fame
There are many kinds of love in this great big world
But there's no love like a love of a true blue girl
True love's a blessing...
Some girls take their love too casually they flirt
Some girls use their love to break a heart to hurt
There are many kinds of love to be found that's true
But there's no love like a love I found when I found you
True love's a blessing...
True love's a blessing...
One more time true love's a blessing...

HERE COMES MY BABY BACK AGAIN
(Dottie West - Bill West)
« © '64 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Here comes more tears to cry here comes more heartaches by
Here comes my baby back again
Here comes more misery here comes old memory
Here comes my baby back again
My arms are open wide to let more hurt inside
Here comes my baby back again
She's sorry once again once more I'll understand
Here comes my baby back again
My arms are open wide...
Here comes my baby back again (here comes my baby)

THINGS HAVE GONE TO PIECES
(Leon Payne)
« © '64 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
All the faucet started drippin' in the kitchen
And last night your picture fell down from the wall
Today the boss said sorry we can't use you anymore
And tonight the light bulb went out in the hall
You hear me now things have gone to pieces since you left me
Oh nothing turns out half right now it seems
There ain't noithing in my pocket but three nickels and a dime
But I'm holding to the pieces of my dream
Somebody yeah threw a baseball through my window
And the arm fell off my favorite chair again
Some man called me today he said he haul my things away
If I didn't get him my payments made by ten
Things have gone to pieces since you left me...

BYE BYE BABY
(Leo Robin - Jule Styne)
« © '60 Music Sales, ASCAP »
Bye bye baby bye bye what pleasure it gives you when I cry
The love that I borrowed brought nothing but sorrow
So bye bye baby bye bye
This time my fond time brought tears time
Though every moment's of lovely and dear time
When love is one sided somehow you can't hide it bye bye baby bye bye
No more red wine and soft lights gone now those happy and gay nights
Once more I'll kiss you then oh how I'll miss you bye bye baby bye bye
Go now quickly from my sake don't look back or you might see the heartache
No tears will you spy dear dead men don't cry dear bye bye baby bye bye
