BORN TO LOSE

(Frankie Brown) « © '43 Peer International, BMI »
Born to lose I've lived my life in vain
Every dream has only brought me pain
All my life I've always been so blue
Born to lose and now I'm losing you

Born to lose my every hope is gone
It's so hard to face the empty dawn
You were all the happiness I knew
Born to lose and now I'm losing you
[ guitar ] Born to lose it seems so hard to bear
How I long to always have you near
You've grown tired and now you say we're through
Born to lose and now I'm losing you

TO MY SORROW

(Vic McAlpin) « © '46 Adams Vee And Abbott Music, BMI »
To my sorrow I loved you only
Cause you told me your heart was true
Then you left me to love another
To my sorrow I trusted you

Only time can heel this longing in my heart dear
And somebody else may help me to forget
I should hate you for all these heartaches
But to my sorrow I love you yet
[ guitar ] To my sorrow you made a vow dear
And you promised to never go
Now your promise and vows are broken
Oh why I love you I'll never know

Maybe someday when your hair has turned to silver
You'll be sorry that you said we had to part
Though I'm smiling inside I'm crying
Cause to my sorrow you're in my heart

MY FOOLISH HEART

(Ned Washington - Victor Young) « © '66 Anne Rachel Music, ASCAP / Catherine Hannen Music, ASCAP /
Patti Washington Music, ASCAP »
It's getting so each time that I hear footsteps on the street
My foolish heart begins to pound and almost skips a beat
I rush outside to meet you dear just like I used to do
Because my foolish heart believes it's you

Each time I hear the telephone my heart starts to rejoice
I always rush to answer it in hopes I'll hear your voice
And when I find it's just a friend I cry the whole night through
Because my foolish heart belongs to you
[ guitar ] I hope and pray that God someday will send you back to me
Until that time I know my foolish heart cannot be free
And though you stay till judgement day I know that I'll be true
Because my foolish heart belongs to you

TOO SOON TO KNOW

(Don Gibson) « © '58 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
It's too soon to know if I can forget her
My heart has been broken into many pieces
And it's too soon to know

Time passes slow will I ever know
If I can forget her and not let it show
But it's too soon to know

News travels fast when a love affair ends
People keep asking what happened to them

But it's too soon to know if I can forget her
My heart has been broken into many pieces
And it's too soon to know it's too soon to know

EACH TIME YOU LEAVE

(Scott Wiseman) « © '55 Regent Music, BMI »
Each time you leave I die a little
Say I'm foolish if you will
But each time you say goodbye I hang my head and cry
My foolish heart just won't be still

Each time you leave I die a little
I'm so afraid I'll lose you dear
Hold me and say that you'll always stay
I only live while you are near
[ guitar ] So hold me and say that you'll always stay
I only live while you are near

WORRIED MIND

(Ted Daffan - Jimmie Davis) « © '41 Peer International, BMI »
You promised me love that would never die
That promise you've made was only a lie
Now after you've gone all alone I'll pine
For all that I've got is a worried mind

I gave you a ring I gave you a home
You promised me truth that you'd never roam
I bought you fine clothes and a car so fine
But all that you gave is a worried mind
[ guitar + piano ] When I was down you've just let me there
I needed you so but you didn't care
You found a new love and a home so fine
But all that I got was a worried mind

You promised me love that would never die...

NO LETTER TODAY

(Frankie Brown) « © '59 Peer International, BMI »
No letter today I have waited since dawn
I've waited each day since you have been gone
No letter today all the days are so long
Oh why don't you write I know I was wrong

Just give me one chance please won't you forgive
I'll love you my dear as long as I live
I know it's no use though I hope and I pray
The postman goes by no letter today
[ guitar + piano ] Just give me one chance...

KING OF A LONELY CASTLE

AFRAID

(Fred Rose) « © '59 Milene Music, ASCAP »
Afraid to tell you how much I care
Afraid I'll need you and you won't be there
I'd like to take you into my heart
But something tells me we would only part

I loved and lost just one love ago
I paid the cost and it hurt me so
A heart gets careless when vows are made
I'd like to love you but I'm so afraid
[ piano - guitar ] I loved and lost just one love ago...

NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW

(Fred Rose - Mel Foree) « © '45 Milene Music, ASCAP »
No one will ever know my heart is breaking
Although a million teardrops start to flow
I'll cry myself to sleep and wake up smiling
I'll miss you but no one will ever know

I'll tell them we grew tired of each other
And realize our dreams could never be
I'll even make believe I never loved you
Then no one will ever know the truth but me
[ guitar ] No one will ever know how much I'm pining
Each time the past comes back to haunt me so
No one will ever know the tears I'm hiding
You've hurt me but no one will ever know

I'll tell them I've found true love with another
That I was glad the day you set me free
I'll even make believe I never loved you
Then no one will ever know the truth but me

TIME

(Tommy Hill - Buddy Meredith - Lowell Sterling) « © '58 Fort Knox Music, BMI / Trio Music, BMI »
They say that time will heal all my heartaches
They say that time will dry all my tears
But they don't know my darling how my heart breaks
Because I'll love you all through the years

They say in time I'll love another
And you will be a memory
But dear if time can bring me any changes
I hope that time will bring you back to me
[ guitar ] They say in time I'll love another...

BLUES IN MY HEART

(Jenny Lou Carson - Red Foley) « © '47 Unichappell Music, BMI »
Blues in my heart oh how it aches
Nobody knows the sorrow it takes
I should have known right from the start
You'd leave me with these blues in my heart

Rain's falling down down from the sky
Even the sun's beginning to cry
Everything's wrong since we're apart
I wish I could lose these blues in my heart
[ guitar + piano ] Gone is the love I couldn't hold
I feel like a lamb that's straight from the fold
I should have known right from the start
That you'd leave me with these blues in my heart
