MILLION AND ONE

(Yvonne Devaney) « © '66 Country Classics Music, BMI »
How many teardrops have I cried over you
A million and one tears a million and two
How many long nights have my arms ached for you
A million and one nights a million and two

Loving you my darling while I thought you loved me only me
But you were just foolin' and the fool you were foolin' was me
How many sweet dreams will never come true
A million and one dreams a million and two

Loving you my darling while I thought...

MY LAST WILL

(Ronnie Self - Dub Albritten) « © '66 Songs Of Universal, BMI »
Now when I'm gone and you're gathered round me
My last will my last will you're dividing apart
Take a bouquet from the flowers that surround me
Take it home let it wilt like the love in your heart

I leave my mind to the one that drove me crazy
I leave my eyes to the one that made them cry
I leave my arms to the one that left them empty
I leave my heart to the one who said goodbye

I leave my mind to the one that drove me crazy...

LONELY STREET

(Carl Belew - W.S. Stevenson - Kenny Sowder) « © '56 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
Where's this place called Lonely Street

I'm looking for that Lonely Street I've got a sad sad tale to tell
I need a place to go and weep where's this place called Lonely Street

A place where there's just loneliness where dim lights bring forgetfulness
Where broken dreams and mem'ries meet where's this place called Lonely Street

Perhaps upon that Lonely Street there's someone such as I
Who came to bury broken dreams and watch an old love die

If I could find that Lonely Street where dim lights bring forgetfulness
Where broken dreams and mem'ries meet where's this place called Lonely Street
Where's this place called Lonely Street

AM I THAT EASY TO FORGET

(Carl Belew - W.S. Stevenson) « © '59 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
They say you've found somebody new but that won't stop my loving you
I just can't let you walk away forget the love I had for you

Guess I could find somebody too but I don't want no one but you
How could you leave without regret am I that easy to forget

Before you leave be sure you find you want his love much more than mine
Or I'll just say we've never met if I'm that easy to forget

Guess I could find somebody too...
Before you leave be sure you find...

CLOSE TO LINDA

(Fred Foster) « © '66 Combine Music, BMI »
I don't mind the winter rain when I'm hurting I can't stand the pain
Just as long as I can be close to Linda
I can't face the darkest day and know that it won't end that way
Just as long as I can be close to Linda

For she is warm and she is real and oh how good she makes me feel
All my troubles disappear and I am strong and free from fear
When my Linda's near

The only thing that worries me is I know love's so blind would like to be
Standing here in place of me close to Linda

For Linda's warm and she is real...

So I've just got to make her know no matter where I go she
The only place I want to be is close to Linda
Is close to Linda is close to Linda

KATHY ON MY MIND

(Orville Couch - Eddie McDuff) « © '66 Combine Music, BMI »
I'm walking down the same old street I've walked a hundred times
Could it be I've got Kathy on my mind
I pass the house where she ought to be but I know she's not inside
Could it be I've got Kathy on my mind

Kathy who in the world took her from me
Why in the world can't she love me
And where in the world is Kathy tonight
So I'll make the block just one more time wonder what I'll find
Could it be I've got Kathy on my mind
[ piano ] So I'll make the block just one more time wonder what I'll find
Could it be I've got Kathy on my mind

CRYING SECTION

(Hank Cochran) « © '66 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Seat me in the crying section I'm afraid the tears are gonna fall
Seat me in the crying section that I won't be out of place at all

I hear that my baby comes in view
And I've got to see her one more time
But I'm afraid when I do she'll be with someone new
Then I know that I'll go out of my mind

Seat me in the crying section...

Tell me does she come here by herself
Could it be that she's sorry that we're through
Maybe if she's along I can tell her I was wrong
But I'll scream if she's seen with someone new

Seat me in the crying section...

HOW DO YOU ASK

(Fred Foster - Dale Ward) « © '66 Combine Music, BMI »
How do you ask someone to love you
What are the words that you say
How do you gain one's affection
When the one you love don't feel the same way

How do you ask someone to need you
When they don't seem to need you at all
How do you win one's devotion
How in the world do you get them to fall

I have given her my heart and I have beared my soul
But never have have her love in return
Now I don't know where to start ot how to reach my goal
But if you can teach me I am willing to learn

How do you ask someone to love you
What are the words that you say
How do you ask someone to love you
When the one you love don't feel the same way

OLD FRENCH QUARTER

(Cindy Walker) « © '66 Matamoros Music, BMI »
In the old French Quarter in New Orleans
In my dreams I walk once more with my darling
In the jazzmen sentent nights neath the misty old lamplights
In the old French Quarter in New Orleans

When I left she held me tight and told me
Not to stay away too long because she loved me
And the silent teardrops fell as we kissed and said farewell
In the old French Quarter in New Orleans

But summer turned to winter and when springtime came
I returned and learned that things were not the same

As I said goodbye to old New Orleans
I could see church bells ringing for my darling
And I slowly walked away but I knew my heart would stay
In the old French Quarter in New Orleans
In the old French Quarter in New Orleans

ELUSIVE BUTTERFLY

(Bob Lind) « © '66 Unart Catalog, BMI »
You might wake up some morning
To the sound of something moving past your window in the wind
And if you're quick enough to rise
You'll catch the fleeting glimpse of someone's fading shadow
Out on the new horizon
You may see the floating motion of a distant pair of wings
And if the sleep has left your ears
You might hear footsteps running through an open meadow
Don't be concerned it will not harm you
It's only me pursuing something I'm not sure of
Across my dreams with nets of wonder
I chase the bright elusive butterfly of love

You might have heard my footsteps
Echo softly in the distance through the canyons of your mind
I might have even called your name
As I ran searching after something to believe in
You might have seen me running
Through the long abandonned ruins of the dreams you left behind
If you remember something there
That glided past you followed close by heavy breathing
Don't be concerned it will not harm you
It's only me pursuing something I'm not sure of
Across my dreams with nets of wonder
I chase the bright elusive butterfly of love

THINK I'LL GO SOMEWHERE AND CRY MYSELF TO SLEEP

(Bill Anderson) « © '65 Johnny Bienstock Music, BMI »
Think I'll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep

I just kissed the one I love for the last time
Never have her soft lips been so sweet
She's gone away and won't be back forever
Think I'll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep

I'll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep
Not because I'm sad but cause I'm weak
I can't stand the thought of life alone without her
Think I'll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep
[ guitar ] Before she said goodbye she called me darling
And slowly ran her fingers down my cheek
I thought I'd die when she said she still love me
Oh think I'll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep

I'll go somewhere and cry myself to sleep...
