Never My Love

Donald Addrisi - Dick Addrisi

© Blackwood Music, BMI

You ask me if there'll come a time
When I grow tired of you
Never my love (never my love) never my love

You wonder if this heart of mine
Will lose its desire for you
Never my love (never my love) never my love

What makes you think love will end
When you know that my whole life depends (you depend) on you (on me)
You say you fear I'll change my mind
I won't require your love
Never my love (never my love) never my love (never my love)
[ instrumental ]
(Never my love)

How can you think love will end
When I've asked you to spend your whole life (all my life) with me (with you)
You ask me if there'll come a time
When I grow tired of you
Never my love (never my love) never my love
(Never my love) never my love (never my love)

Catch The Wind

Donovan Leitch

© Southern Music, ASCAP

In the chilly hours and minutes of uncertainty I want to be
In the warm hold of your lovin' mind
To feel you all around me and to take your hand along the sand
Oh but I may as well try and catch the wind

When sundown pales the sky I want to hide a while behind your smile
And everywhere I look your eyes I'll find
Standing in your heart is where I want to be and long to be
Oh but I may as well try and catch the wind
[ instrumental ]
When rain has hung the leaves with tears I want you near to kill my fears
To help me leave all my blues behind me
For me to love you more would be the sweetest thing would make me sing
Oh but I may as well try and catch the wind

Anita You're Dreaming

Waylon Jennings - Don Bowman

© Irving Music, BMI

Anita come closer stop cryin' and listen to me
I guess it's too late now but somehow I must make you see
What we thought was our world was only a dream world
We just can't go on like this
Anita you're dreaming in a world that can never exist

Anita it's over there's nothing that's left now to say
Anita you're dreaming I know it's better this way

Anita come closer and close your pretty blue eyes
Your young dreams just can't be and somehow you must realize
That each time you're with me my conscience reminds me
Of someone who's waiting alone
Anita you're dreaming when you awake I'll be gone

Anita it's over there's nothing that's left now to say...
Anita you're dreaming we know it's better this way

When I Need You

Carole Bayer Sager - Albert Hammond

© Unichappell Music, BMI

When I need you
I just close my eyes and I'm with you
And all that I so want to give you
It's only a heartbeat away

When I need love
I hold out my hands and I touch love
I never knew there was so much love
Keeping me warm night and day

Miles and miles of empty space in between us
The telephone can't take the place of your smile
But you know I won't be traveling a lifetime
It's cold out but hold out and do like I do

When I need you
I just close my eyes and I'm with you
And all that I so want to give you
It's only a heartbeat away

It's not easy when the road is your driver
Honey that's a heavy load that we bear
But you know I won't be traveling forever
It's cold out but hold out and do like I do

When I need love
I hold out my hands and I touch love
I never knew there was so much love
Keeping me warm night and day
When I need love

I Sure Can Love You

Gary S. Paxton - Karen Paxton

© Garpax Music, ASCAP

Now I can't turn your water into wine
And I can't slow the hand of father time
And I don't hold the power to carry all those skies to blue
But I can give my everything to you

Yes I sure can love you I sure can love you
I can try to make you happy night and day
Yes I sure can love you I sure can love you
I can give you true love all the way

Now I can't guarantee there'll just be easy time
And I can't always be there make things right
And I don't hold the future full of miracles for you
But I can keep my promises to you

Yes I sure can love you I sure can love you...
All the way

Break My Mind

John D. Loudermilk

© Acuff-Rose Music, BMI

Baby oh baby
Tell the man at the ticket stand that you've changed your mind
Let me run on out and tell the cab to keep his meter flyin'
If you say goodbye to me babe you're gonna break my mind

Break my mind break my mind
No I just can't stand to hear them big jet engines whine
Break my mind break my mind oh Lord
If you leave you're gonna leave a babblin' fool behind

Baby oh baby
Let me take your suitcase off that scale in time
Tell the man that you've suddenly developed a thing about flyin'
If you say goodbye to me babe you're gonna break my mind

Break my mind break my mind...
[ instrumental ]
(Break break my mind)
[ instrumental ]
Break my mind break my mind...

Break my mind break my mind oh Lord
If you leave you're gonna leave a babblin' fool behind
If you leave you're gonna leave a babblin' fool behind

Forget Yesterday

Wayne Bradford

© Hookem Music, ASCAP

The hurt was deep my life was all in pieces
The victim of an injured love affair
I tried so hard to live each day without her
But each road I took just seemed to lead nowhere nowhere

Then I met you (I met you) and my heart started mending (it started mending)
You gave me love that was so sweet and free (so free)
The dark clouds in my life just seemed to vanish
When these words of love you said to me

Forget yesterday (forget yesterday) let's search for tomorrow
Let's live out our dreams the plans and the schemes let's forget the sorrow
Let's go on as one (lets go on as one) live our lives together
Through good times and pain through sunshine or rain we'll love on forever
Forget yesterday

Without You There's A Sadness In My Song

Cathy Gosdin

© Hookit Music, BMI

At times I feel I can call you my own
And if there's times you may as well be gone
But your mind is a thousand miles away from me
I know you're gonna leave

I can see that restless look in your eyes
I can almost hear you telling me goodbye
When the morning comes again will you be gone
And leave me all alone
Without you there's a sadness in my song

Without you there's a sadness in my song
And the roar of the quiet makes the sad song linger on
Your smile is like a morning breath of spring
You're the melody in every song I sing
Still alone it was just too good to last
All things must come to pass
Without you there's a sadness in my song
Yes without you there's a sadness in my song

The Lady She's Right

Rex Gosdin - Vernon Reed

© Window Music, BMI

She believes I just can't make it without her
That she's the reason I lay awake at night
And she thinks that I wish I could hold her one more time
And the worst part of it all the lady she's right

She thinks I'm like a child that's lost in a crowd
That I'm helpless without her to watch over me
She believes that in time I'll go out of my mind
And the truth of the matter is the lady she's right
[ instrumental ]
She just called me up to see how I was doing
As I lied to her she read between the lines
And I can't believe I heard her sweet voice saying this time we'll make it
And the best part of it all the lady she's right
Yes the best part of it all the lady she's right

Something's Wrong In California

Wayne Carson - Rodney Lay

© Earl Barton Music, BMI

Something's wrong in California
I can tell by the letter she don't write
Gotta get back to California
Something's just ain't right in California

Stranded here in Kansas City
Ain't got a nickel to my name
I gotta get back to see my baby
Just the same back to California

I said I'm sinned for her when I made it
But I ain't made it and deep inside I'm afraid it's all over

Should have left her in California
That was a foolish thing to do
I gotta get back to see my baby
Lord I hope she's still true in California
(California)

Last time I heard from her I was in Denver
Lord I'm so afraid she forgot to remember to love me

Something's wrong in California
I can tell by the letter she don't write
Gotta get back to California
Something's just ain't right in California
(California) California
