My mama said, “you can’t hurry love
No, you’ll just have to wait”
She said, “love don’t come easy
But it’s a game of give and take”
The judges will decide
The likes of me abide
Spectators of the show
Always staying low
The game is on again
A lover or a friend
A big thing or a small
The winner takes it all
Are we in love or just friends?
Is this my beginning or is this the end?
When will I see you again?
Thank you for being a friend
Traveled down a road and back again
Your heart is true, you’re a pal and a confidant
You’re my bread when I’m hungry,
You’re my shelter from troubled winds,
You’re my anchor in life’s ocean,
But, most if all,
You’re my best friend…
I am a rock
I am an island
Don’t answer me, don’t break the silence
Don’t let me win
Don’t answer me, stay on your island
Don’t let me in
Run away and hide from everyone
Can you change the things we’ve said and done?
No one will ever know how much I love you so
My only prayer will be, someday you’ll care for me,
But it’s o-only make believe
In honor of Peter Tork’s passing…
Then I saw her face, now I’m a believer
Not a trace, of doubt in my mind
I’m in love, I’m a believer
I couldn’t leave her if I tried
And…
Cheer up sleepy Jean
Oh, what can it mean to a
Daydream believer and a
Homecoming queen?
Wake up, little Susie, wake up
Wake up, little Susie, wake up
We’ve both been sound asleep, wake up, little Susie, and weep
The movie’s over, it’s four o’clock, and we’re in trouble deep
We could have had it all (you’re gonna wish you never had met me)
Rolling in the deep (Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hand (you’re gonna wish you never had met me)
And you played it to the beat (tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
Time on my hands could be time spent with you
Laughing like children, living like lovers
Rolling like thunder under the covers
And I guess that’s why they call it the blues
If I could save time in a bottle,
The first thing I’d like to do,
Is to save everyday
'Til eternity passes away,
Just spend them with you…
A long time ago I had a lady to love
She made me think of things I never thought of
Now she’s gone and I’m on my own
A love song has come into my mind
A love song, it was there all the time
Heard it in a love song
Heard it in a love song
Heard it in a love song
Can’t be wrong
I heard it through the grapevine,
Not much longer would you be mine, baby yeah yeah
I heard it through the grapevine,
Not much longer would you be mine, baby yeah yeah
Your love is fadin’ I can feel it fadin’
Ooh-ooh away from me
I can feel it in the air, it’s there everywhere
Oooh-ooh I’m losing you
The feeling we used to get
Whenever our lives met
Like smoke from a cigarette
It’s fading away (Fading away)
Well, your fingers weave quick minarets
Speak in secret alphabets
I light another cigarette
Learn to forget, learn to forget
Learn to forget, learn to forget
Let me sleep all night in your soul kitchen
Warm my mind near your gentle stove
Turn me out and I’ll wander baby
Stumblin’ in the neon groves
