FOR YOU
(Al Dubin - Joe Burke)
« © '57 WB Music, ASCAP »
I will gather stars out of the blue for you yes baby for you
I'll make a string of pearls out of the dew for you yes baby for you
Over the highway and over the street carpets of clover I'll lay at your feet
Oh well it's nothing in this world I wouldn't do for you yes baby for you
[ guitar ]
Over the highway...
I wouldn't do for you yes baby for you oh I wouldn't do for you yes baby for you

FOOLS RUSH IN
(Johnny Mercer - Ruby Bloom)
« © '61 WB Music, ASCAP »
Fools rush in where angels fear to thread
And so I come to you my love my heart above my head
Though I see the danger there if there's a chance for me then I don't care
Fools rush in where wise men never go
But wise men never fall in love so how are they to know
When we met I felt my life began so open up your heart and let this fool rush in
[ guitar ]
Fools rush in where wise men never go...
Just open up your heart and let this fool rush in
Well open up your heart and let this fool rush in

DOWN HOME
(Carole King - Gerry Goffin)
« © '64 Screen Gems Music, BMI »
Down home oh down home there used to be rivers and trees
Fresh bread every single morning and sweet magnolia in the breeze
Oh fishing lines and young dreams oh I hear them calling to me
But there's no way to get down home cause down home's just a memory
[ trumpet - guitar ]
Wish I could leave this big town city living ain't living to me
But there's no way to get down home
No you can't retrieve it cause once you leave it oh down homes just a memory
Down home oh down home

Each time I hold you well I feel good uh huh you know I do uh huh
When I'm away from you I feel like you want me to
You put your arms around me and I get
I get that feeling that same old feeling if I lose that feeling guess I'll die
[ guitar ]
Each time you kiss me well I feel good uh huh you know I do uh huh
Don't you ever leave me if you do you'd grieve me
Gonna wrap your arms around me tight
I get that feeling that same old feeling if I lose that feeling guess I'll die
I want that feeling gotta have that feeling if I lose that feeling guess I'll die
Yes I'll die yes I'll die uh huh huh

YOU'RE FREE TO GO
(Don Robertson - Lou Hersher)
« © '55 Don Robertson, ASCAP / Accadia Music, ASCAP »
You're free to go darling I'll break the ties that bind
Somehow the dreams we planned have gone astray
You're free to go darling so ease your worried mind I'll never stand in your way
There's no ring of shining gold so strong that it can hold
A heart when it longs to be free
The lips are cold darling that once said yes to me
The tender glow is gone I know you're free to go
There's no ring of shining gold...

I RISE I FALL
(Paul Hampton)
« © '64 Blue Flag Music, ASCAP »
I rise I fall with each little thing you do
You hurt I hurt I'm that much a part of you
And when you're happy baby well I'm happy too
Since I'm that much a part of you
I rise I fall with each little breath you take
You cry I cry cause I feel the same heartache
And when you're smiling baby well I smile too
Since I'm that much a part of you
Your lips are my lips my heart is your heart
Never let us be further than just a breath apart
I rise I fall with each little thing you do
You hurt I hurt I'm that much a part of you
Every thing that you feel baby well I feel it too
Since I'm that much a part of you
Every thing that you feel baby well I feel it too
Since I'm that much a part of you a part of you a part of you

THAT'S ALL SHE WROTE
(Keith Colley - Nance Mantz)
« © '50 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
Hello Mr Mailman thank you for the letter it's from my baby far away
Wait Mr Mailman this couldn't be my letter baby never writes this way
She didn't say I love you or I'm thinking of you
She didn't say sincerely or I miss you dearly
At the end was just goodbye my friend just a note that's all she wrote
Look Mister Mailman look at the writing there could be no mistake
I just didn't think the hand that wrote such sweet things
Would make my poor heart break
She didn't say sincerely or I miss you dearly
At the end was just goodbye my friend just a note that's all she wrote
So please Mr Mailman take away the letter it's just a sad memory
No Mr Mailman the sooner I forget her the better off I'll be
She didn't say sincerely or I miss you dearly
At the end was just goodbye my friend just a note that's all she wrote
That's all she wrote that's all she wrote

(I'D BE A) LEGEND IN MY TIME
(Don Gibson)
« © '60 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
If heartaches brought fame in love's crazy game I'd be a legend in my time
If they gave gold statues for tears and regrets I'd be a legend in my time
But they don't give awards and there's no praise or fame
For a heart that's been broken over love that's in vain
If loneliness meant world acclaim then everyone would know my name
I'd be a legend a living in my time
[ guitar ]
But they don't give awards...
I'd be a legend a living in my time

JUST TAKE A MOMENT
(Jerry Fuller - Cissi Wilson)
« © '64 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
Just take a moment to remember the love that we once knew
Darling please don't go cause I love you so and I just can't believe we're through
You just take a moment you discover that I need you so close to me
So give our romance just one more chance for our love's meant to be
Just take a moment think of the past take your time and don't you think so fast
I know you'll find that our love will last for eternity
Just take a moment to believe me for it's your love that I'm living for
If you'll promise never to leave me that our love will last evermore
Just take a moment think of the past take your time and don't you think so fast
I know you'll find that our love will last for eternity
So just take a moment to believe me for it's your love that I'm living for
If you'll stay here never to leave me that moment will last evermore
Yes that moment will last evermore well that moment will last evermore
