BEHIND THE TEAR
(Ned Miller - Sue Miller)
« © '65 Central Songs, BMI »
Behind the tear there's a hurt behind the hurt a broken heart
Behind that broken heart there lies a broken dream
Behind the dream there's a fool behind the fool a wasted love
You broke my heart and I'm the fool behind the tear
Look here on my cheek there's a teardrop
Oh not much bigger than a grain of sand
Don't turn your head so close behind the teardrop
You'll see the hurt you left inside a lonely man
Behind the tear there's a hurt...
(Broken heart broken dreams behind the tear)

I'LL NEVER BE ANYTHING BUT IN LOVE WITH YOU
(Bob Tubert - Sonny James)
« © '65 Mike Curb Music, BMI »
I'll never be anything but in love with you
The crown of a king won't mean a thing if I'm not loving you
I'll never be anything but in love with you
As long as I live I've nothing to give if I'm not loving you
I don't care how high I'd climb or if I'd reach the sun
Just as long as you love me I'm richer than anyone
I'll never be anything but in love with you
If I'd own the earth what what it'd be worth if I'm not loving you
I'll never be anything...
I'll always be in love with you

SHACKLES AND CHAINS
(Shirley Legate)
« © '65 Mike Curb Music, BMI »
Shackles and chains shackles and chains
Oh that's all that remains schackles and chains
Now my home is where my heart is and that could be anywhere
But my heart is chained to mem'ries and the thought you couldn't care
For no reason I could tell you were afraid to fall for me
But since I have fallen already you should stop be fair to me
Release these shackles these chains memories that remain
Oh oh shackles and chains
Oh this chain that binds me to you is the one I'll never break
When I say that I'll forget you my poor heart begins to ache
For no reason I could tell...
(Oh oh) shackles and chains

TONIGHT I FOUND MY TRUE LOVE
(Jerry Fuller - Bill Sanders)
« © '65 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
Tonight I found my true love tonight I found my world is you love
You are here young and warm say you'll stay forever in my arms safe from harm
Oh oh oh surely you must know how much I care
Our love will grow if you'll just let me know you'll always be there
(Tonight for me to love)
Tonight I found my true love tonight I found my world is you love
I thought I had everything but I never knew my heart could seen
Oh oh oh surely you must know how much I care
Our love will grow if you'll just let me know you'll always be there
(Tonight for me to love) tonight

IT'S THE LITTLE THINGS
(Arlie Duff)
« © '65 Mike Curb Music, BMI »
The way you fix my tie in the morning and always brush my coat before I go
The hurried kiss I get from you when I'm leaving
It's the little things that make me love you so
The way you take my arm when we go walking
The way you hold my hand when we're at a show
The way your eyes say more than you when we're talking
It's the little things that make me love you so
Those little things you knew that make me love you
They're all I need to make my dreams come true
And you know what tears me all to pieces
Is the way you tell me that you love me too
The way you know just how I like my coffee
And how you chase away my every care
And the way you go around turning lights down low
It's the little things that make me love you so
It's the little things that make me love you so

ON AND ON
(Sonny James - Richard Hollingsworth)
« © '65 Mike Curb Music, BMI »
My love may be over the mountain my love may be over the sea
Somewhere I know there must be someone one true love for only me
So I gotta go on (gotta go on gotta go on on and on and on)
My heart says on I know someday somewhere I'll find my love
So I gotta go on (gotta go on gotta go on)
Well I've been lonely I've been blue I'm just no good without her love
Well can she be my one and only where is the one I'm dreaming of
So I gotta go on...
They say that true love will find a way somehow I'll find my way I know
And then I'll hold her in my arms no lonely days love will grow
So I gotta go on...

I'LL NEVER FIND ANOTHER YOU
(Tom Springfield)
« © '65 Chappell & Co, ASCAP »
There's a new world somewhere they call the Promised Land
And I'll be there someday if you will hold my hand
I still need you there beside me no matter what I do
For I know I'll never find another you
There is always someone to reach across they say
And you'll be my someone forever and today
I could search the whole world over until my life is through
But I know I'll never find another you
It's a long long journey so stay by my side
When I'll walk through the storm you'll be my guide be my guide
If they gave me a fortune my pleasure would be small
I could lose it all tomorrow and never mind at all
But if I should lose your love dear I don't know what I'd do
For I know I'll never find another you
[ guitar ]
But if I should lose your love dear I don't know what I'd do
For I know I'll never find another you another you another you

YES OR NO
(Bob Tubert - Sonny James)
« © '65 Vintage Music, BMI »
Yes or no what will it be is it him or is it me
In my heart I've got to know will it be yes or no
Yes or no have I the chance please don't end our sweet romance
Won't you please let our love grow will let be yes or no
Though I know that I'd been so foolish to think that no one else could see
You've got a heart just made for love please bring it back to me
Yes or no please tell me true for you know I still love you
Please tell me you won't go will let be yes or no
Please tell me you won't go will let be yes or no
Uh huh huh lease tell me you won't go will let be yes or no
Please tell me you won't go will let be yes or no

WHAT MAKES A MAN WANDER
(Harlan Howard)
« © '58 Bramble Music, BMI »
Why do I like to roam when I got so much of love at home
What makes a man wander what makes a man wander
The whistle of a train do something to my brain
What makes a man wander what makes a man wander
I know I love her as much as I ever could love anyone yet I'm still gone
I come back and I vow that I settle down now then I'm gone with the dawn
Why do I like to roam when I got so much of love at home
What makes a man wander what makes a man wander
I know I love her as much...
What makes a man wander what makes a man wander

IN MEMORY OF LOUISA
(Bob Tubert - Sonny James)
« © '65 Mike Curb Music, BMI »
In mem'ry of Luisa I save each tear I cry
I put them in an old fruit jar together with the falling star
In mem'ry of Luisa each day that passes by
Is longer than a year is long since my Luisa's gone
[ choir ]
In mem'ry of Luisa I wear this faded rose
And in my sleep a broken heart wondering why we had to part
In mem'ry of Luisa I wander all alone
I walk a road that's much too long since my Luisa's gone my Luisa's gone

I TRULY DO
(Diane Lampert - Jimmie Haskell)
« © '65 Unart Catalog, BMI »
I do love you I truly do you do love me you truly do
It's no secret it's part on every tree that I truly love you and you truly love me
Dreams do come true they truly do wishes do too they truly do
There's no love truer than my love for you I do love you I truly truly do
Dreams do come true...
I truly truly do truly do
