Not While I'm Around

Stephen Sondheim

© Revelation Music, ASCAP

Nothin's gonna harm you not while I'm around
Nothin's gonna harm you no sir not while I'm around

Demons are prowling everywhere nowadays
I'll send them howling I don't care I got ways

No one's gonna hurt you no one's gonna dare
Others can desert you not to worry whistle I'll be there

Demons will charm you with a smile for a while
But in time nothin' can harm you not while I'm around
[ strings ]
Demons will charm you with a smile for a while
But in time nothin's gonna harm you not while I'm around
Not while I'm around

Regrets

Barbara Wyrick

© Intersong Music, ASCAP

I wish that I could take back all of the things I've done to hurt you
I didn't mean to be so cruel
And I know that I've been selfish
And at times a jealous fool

And every thoughtless thing I've done keeps comin' back to haunt me
Because you took each one to heart
And as I realize that it's my fault
We've grown worlds apart

I have regrets regrets
For my mistakes and thinking only of myself
And all that I have left are these regrets regrets
For the things I did that somehow you just can't forgive
I guess I'll always have to live with these regrets

If I could right the wrongs I've done maybe I could stop your leavin'
But there's so much I'm guilty of
And it's too late to say I'm sorry
Cause being sorry's not enough

With each angry word that I've said your love for me was dyin'
Each word left a lasting scar
And right now I feel so helpless
Wishing I could change the way things are

I have regrets regrets...

When

George Fischoff

© George Fischoff Pub, ASCAP

(When when beauty fades from view
As worldly things will do
My eyes will still see through you)

When when dreams turn old and gray
And seem to slip away
My dream of you will stay

Loving you the way I do
Wanting you needing you
Don't you know can't you see
My love will flow eternally
[ trumpet ]
Don't you know can't you see
My love will flow eternally

And when when the evening shadows fall
And you are in my arms I love you most of all

Loving you the way I do...

There'll Never Be Another Night Like This

David Reilly - Anthony Bygraves

© David Reilly Music, ASCAP

(There'll never be another night like this
A girl like you to hold and kiss
Oh oh oh there'll never be another night like this
A girl like you to love)

I've been living in the past hanging on to yesterday
Walking down a sad road only leads a man one way
There are shadows in my eyes empty fielings my heart
But you brought all the feelings back an' given me a start

There'll never be another night like this...

Touchin' you is touchin' me like a spirit goin' free
If the end should come this is the place I'd choose to be
You're a second chance at life and it's better than the first
For you filled all my senses up and quenched a dying thirst

There'll never be another night like this...

There'll never be another night like this

Don't let go I won't let go
Show everything there is to show

There'll never be another night like this...
There'll never be another night like this

Love

Gerard Kenny

© Arlon Enterprises, Ltd

Love makes lovely out of lonely
Love with someone and only
Time time to take time to share
All that's hiding there behind your heart
As you start livin' for a brighter surer

Love to wrap around a romance
Love the dance of the slow dance
One one and one making more
Than any one before by knowin' you're in love

No more waking up to no one there
No more handing out hands of solitaire
And no more New Year's Eve with the evening news
No more blues no more blues
[ violin ]
Love love that speaks with a smile
Knowing all the while we wanna cry
But you try smiling deeper just to keep

A love that writer's write their songs for
Love that poetry longs for
You and you alone make my loneliness unknown
And so you own my love

When She Smiles

Jerry Liliedahl

© Jemaxal Music, ASCAP

Even though I loved you and maybe I still do
I'd rather have the one I'm with than cry again for you
She don't have your magic and she don't have your style
But she don't cross her fingers when she smiles

When she smiles she's like a sweet honest child
She don't cross her fingers when she smiles

The feeling's still inside me and I guess it's gonna stay
I hope that you don't think that I can't turn and walk away
Someone stood beside me through my heartaches and my trials
She don't cross her fingers when she smiles

She don't use the clever moves that players like you've known
She can take me anywhere I'd ever care to go

And if you think I'm foolin' then you can have a laugh on me
But the day I sell my soul for you is just a memory
And if I ever see you girl I'll stop and talk awhile
I'll probably cross my fingers when I smile

She don't cross her fingers when she smiles
She don't cross her fingers when she smiles

The Colors Of My Life

Michael Stewart - Cy Coleman

© Notable Music, ASCAP

The colors of my life are bountiful and bold
The purple glow of indigo the gleam of green and gold
The splendor of a sunrise the dazzle of a flame
The glory of a rainbow will put 'em all to shame

No quiet browns or grays I'll take my days instead
And fill them till they overflow with rose and cherry red
And should this sunlit world grow dark one day
The colors of my life will leave a shining light to show the way

(No quiet browns and grays I'll take my days instead
And fill them till they overflow with rose and cherry red)
And should that sunlit world grow dark one day
The colors of my life (will leave a shining light)
The colors of my life will light the way

Save Me The Dance

Ervin Drake - Luciano Angeleri

© Dunhill Music, ASCAP

(Save me the dance where the lights go down low
Save me the one they call the dance of love)

When the room is dark every heart's aglow
Save me the dance of love never ever let me go
It's our private song and our private band
And when the dance is through forever ever hold my hand

Save me the dance where the lights go down low
Save me the one they call the dance of love
[ Italian ]
Save me the dance where the lights go down low...
Save me the dance where the lights go down low...

Save me the dance where the lights go down low...

Someone Is Waiting

Richard Ahlert - Ettore Stratta

© Como Legacy Music, ASCAP

Someone is waiting
Waiting to walk from the shadow of lonely into the sun
It takes a moment to happen
Fortune may smile on you only a moment and there is the one

High on a hilltop or in the heart of town
A touch of the dreamer won't let you down

If not tomorrow then someday
Somehow in time you'll discover that's someone waiting
Waiting like me
[ strings ]
(High on a hilltop or in the heart of town)
A touch of the dreamer won't let you down

If not tomorrow then someday...

You Are My World

Bobby London - Paul Vance

© Como Legacy Music, ASCAP

If I told you how I feel inside
Would you understand the love I'm feelin'
Would you run away and hide

I do love you and I always will
Love's not a word I've often spoken
You make my restless heart stand still

You are my world my newborn soul
Here is my heart for you to hold
You're every dream of love come true
Yes everything I'll ever need is you

(I will) I will (love you) love you (like no one before)
And should you ever ask how much I love you
I'd say I couldn't love you more

Cause you're my world my newborn soul...

(You're every dream of love come true)
Yes everything I'll ever need is you
