4.Born Free

Lyricist:Andy Williams
Writer(s):Andy Williams

Born free, as free as the wind blows
As free as the grass grows
Born free to follow your heart

Live free and beauty surrounds you
The world still astounds you
Each time you look at a star

Stay free, where no walls divide you
You're free as the roaring tide
So there's no need to hide

Born free, and life is worth living
But only worth living
'cause you're born free

(Stay free, where no walls divide you)
You're free as the roaring tide
So there's no need to hide

Born free, and life is worth living
But only worth living
'cause you're born free


5.Canadian Sunset

Lyricist:Andy Williams
Writer(s):Andy Williams

Once I was alone
So lonely and then
You came, out of nowhere
Like the sun up from the hills

Cold, cold was the wind
Warm, warm were your lips
Out there, on that ski trail
Where your kiss filled me with thrills

A weekend in Canada, a change of scene
Was the most I bargained for
And then I discovered you and in your eyes
I found the love that I couldn't ignore

Down, down came the sun
Fast, fast, fast, beat my heart
I knew when the sun set
From that day, we'd never ever part


6.Hawaiian Wedding Song

Lyricist:Andy Williams
Writer(s):Andy Williams

This is the moment I've waited for
I can hear my heart singing
Soon bells will be ringing

This is the moment of sweet aloha
I will love you longer than forever
Promise me that you will leave me never

Here and now, dear
All my love I vow, dear
Promise me that you will leave me never
I will love you longer than forever

Now that we are one
Clouds won't hide the sun
Blue skies of hawaii smile
On this, our wedding day

(I do) I do
(love you) love you
With all my heart


7.Can't Get Used To Losing You

Lyricist:Andy Williams
Writer(s):Andy Williams

Guess there's no use in hangin' 'round
Guess I'll get dressed and do the town
I'll find some crowded avenue
Though it will be empty without you

Can't get used to losin' you no matter what I try to do
Gonna live my whole life through-loving you

Called up some girl I used to know
After I heard her say 'Hello'
Couldn't think of anything to say
Since you're gone it happens every day

Can't get used to losin' you no matter what I try to do
Gonna live my whole life through-loving you

I'll find somebody, wait and see
Who am I kiddin', only me
'cause no one else could take your place
Guess that I am just a hopeless case

Can't get used to losin' you no matter what I try to do
Gonna live my whole life through-loving you

I can't get used to losin' you no matter what I try to do
Gonna live my whole life through-loving you


8.Moon River

Lyricist:Andy Williams
Writer(s):Andy Williams

Moon river, wider than a mile
I'm crossing you in style some day
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker
Wherever you're going, I'm going your way

Two drifters, off to see the world
There's such a lot of world to see
We're after the same rainbow's end, waiting ,round the bend
My Huckleberry Friend, Moon River, and me

Moon river, wider than a mile
I'm crossing you in style some day
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker
Wherever you're going, I'm going your way

Two drifters, off to see the world
There's such a lot of world to see
We're after that same rainbow's end, waiting ,round the bend
My Huckleberry Friend, Moon River, and me


9.May Each Day

Lyricist:Andy Williams
Writer(s):Andy Williams

May each day in the week be a good day
May the Lord always watch over you
And may all of your hopes turn to wishes
And may all of your wishes come true

May each day in the month be a good day
May you make friends with each one you meet
And may all of your daydreams be mem'ries
And may all of your mem'ries be sweet

The weeks turn to months and the months into years
There'll be sadness and joy, there'll be laughter and tears
But one thing I pray to heaven above
May each of your days be a day full of love

May each day in the year be a good day
May each dawn find you happy and gay
And may all of your days be as lovely
As the one you shared with me today

May each day of your life be a good day
And good night.


10.Are You Sincere ?

Lyricist:Andy Williams
Writer(s):Andy Williams

Are you sincere when you say 'I love you?'
Are you sincere when you say 'I'll be true?'
Do you mean every word that my ears have heard?
I'd like to know which way to go, will our love grow?
Are you sincere? (Are you sincere?)

Are you sincere when you say you miss me? (You miss me)
Are you sincere every time you kiss me? (You kiss me)
And are really mine every day, all the time?
I'd like to know which way to go, will our love grow?
Are you sincere? (Are you sincere?)

Are really mine every day, all the time?
I'd like to know (I'd like to know)
Which way to go (Which way to go)
Will our love grow ? (Will our love grow?)
Are you sincere?


11.Baby Doll

Lyricist:Andy Williams
Writer(s):Andy Williams

There's many a guy who'll sing you these blues
His dream was a lie, his heart's in his shoes
He wasn't so green, in ways he was smart
Till she hit the scene and she took him apart
He'll tell you as plain as day
'Keep away from ba-a-a-a-a-a-aby doll'

(That baby doll)
(Look out for her)

You'll see in her eyes the warning you should
You oughta be ooh-eyed, she'll lose you but good
As long as she's warm, the livin' is sweet
Then she'll raise a storm, you're back on the street
You might as well know, my friend, that's the end
You're cooked, you're through
(My friend, you're through)
(You're cooked, you're through)

She was my baby doll and she'll do the same to you

(That baby doll)
(Look out for her)


12.The Bilbao Song

Lyricist:Andy Williams
Writer(s):Andy Williams

That old Bilbao moon, I won't forget it soon
That old Bilbao moon, just like a big balloon
That old Bilbao moon would rise above the dune
While Tony's Beach Saloon rocked with an old-time tune
We'd sing a song the whole night long and I can still recall
Those were the greatest (those were the greatest)
Those were the greatest (those were the greatest)
Those were the greatest nights of them all

No paint was on the door (no paint was on the door)
The grass grew through the floor (the grass grew through the
floor)
Of Tony's Two By Four (of Tony's Two By Four)
On the Bilbao shore (on the Bilbao shore)
But there were friends galore (howdy do, howdy do)
And there was beer to pour (chug-a-lug, chug-a-lug)
And moonlight on the shore (and the moon shines above)
That old Bilbao shore (on the shore, not the floor)
We'd sing all night with all our might and I can still recall
Those were the greatest (those were the greatest)
Those were the greatest (those were the greatest)
Those were the greatest nights of them all

That old Bilbao moon, I won't forget it soon
That old Bilbao moon, just like a big balloon
That old Bilbao moon would rise above the dune
While Tony's Beach Saloon rocked with an old-time tune
We'd sing all night with all our might and I can still recall
Those were the greatest (those were the greatest)
Those were the greatest (those were the greatest)
Those were the greatest nights of them all


13.Butterfly

Lyricist:Andy Williams
Writer(s):Andy Williams

You tell me you love me, you say you'll be true
Then you fly around with somebody new
But I'm crazy about you, you butterfly

You treat me mean, you're makin' me cry
I've made up my mind to tell you goodbye
But I'm no good without you, you butterfly

I knew from the first time I kissed you
That you were the troublin' kind
'cause the honey drips from your sweet lips
One taste and I'm outta my mind

I love you so much I know what I'll do
I'm clippin' your wings, your flyin' is through
'cause I'm crazy about you, you butterfly

Ooh, I'm crazy about you, you butterfly
Ooh, I can't live without you, you butterfly

I knew from the first time I kissed you
That you were the troublin' kind
'cause the honey that drips from your sweet lips
One taste and I'm outta my mind

Ooh, I love you so much I know what I'll do
I'm clippin' your wings, your flyin' is through
'cause I'm crazy about you, you butterfly

You butterfly
You butterfly

Oh honey babe, oh honey babe
Oh honey babe, I like your kind of love
That's good, baby that's good

Honey babe, I like the way that you walk by
I like the way you swing your eye
I like your kind of love

Every night I like the way you beg for more
And linger there outside the door
I like your kind of love
That's good, baby that's good

Well, well, well-ll-ll ain't it swell

And no one else could ever thrill me like you do
You make my every dream come true

And that's the way it oughta be
I like your kind of love
Honey you know I do

Don't you know-o-o that I love you so
Can't you see-e-e that you're for me
Honey babe I like the way you hold my hand
To make me know you understand

15.Lips Of Wine

Lyricist:Andy Williams
Writer(s):Andy Williams

I tasted your sweet lips, thrilled to my fingertips
Lips of wine, warm with fire, you are my one desire
Lips of wine, and they are mine

While tropic breezes play, while palm trees gently
sway
Lips of wine, come to me, whisper low so tenderly
Lips of wine, and they are mine

LIPS OF WINE

Sweet Hawaiian miss, no more will I roam
I must have your kiss and I can't go home

You stole my heart from me, pretty rose of Waikiki
Lips of wine, sweet and rare, tell me you will always care
Lips of wine, and they are mine

(Sweet lips, sweet and tasty lips)

Sweet Hawaiian miss, no more will I roam
I must have your kiss and I can't go home

I tasted you sweet lips (sweet lips, your sweet and tasty lips)
Thrilled to my fingertips (sweet lips, your sweet and tasty
lips)
Lips of wine, warm with fire, you are my one desire
Lips of wine (sweet lips) and they are mine (sweet lips of wine)
And they are mine (sweet lips of wine)

Ooh, they are mine (sweet lips of wine)


16.Lonely Street

Lyricist:Andy Williams
Writer(s):Andy Williams

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 Stree-ee-ee-eet?'

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 Stree-ee-ee-eet?'

Perhaps upon that lonely street
There's someone such as I
Who came to bury broken dreams
And watch an old love di-ie

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 Stree-ee-ee-eet?'

Where's this place called 'Lonely Stree-ee-ee-eet?'


17.Promise Me, Love

Lyricist:Andy Williams
Writer(s):Andy Williams

Promise me love, promise me
Kisses sweet love, meant for me
Promise me love
That you'll love me tenderly
Oh love, promise me (promise me)

Promise me love, promise me (oh, promise me)
Arms to hold love, never set me free (oh, promise me)
Promise me love
That you'll love me tenderly
Oh love, promise me (oh, promise me)

I promise you blue cornflowers for your hair
A golden necklace and my heart I swear
I promise you a million promises I'd do
And they'll come true
Oh love, I promise you (ooh-ooh)

Promise me love, promise me (oh, promise me)
You'll be my love eternally (oh, promise me)
Swear it true love that you'll love me tenderly
Oh love, promise me (oh, promise me, love, oh, promise me)

I promise you blue cornflowers for your hair
A golden necklace and a ring to wear
I promise you a million promises I'd do

18.Village Of St. Bernadette

Lyricist:Andy Williams
Writer(s):Andy Williams

I've traveled far, the land and the sea
Beautiful places I happened to be
One little town I'll never forget
Is Lourdes, the village of St. Bernadette

Ave, ave, ave Ma-ri-a
Ave, ave, ave Ma-ri-i-ia

There, like a dream, this wonderful night
I gazed at the grotto aglow in the light
A feeling divine swept over me there
I fell to my knees as I whispered the prayer

Ave, ave, ave Ma-ri-a
Ave, ave, ave Ma-ri-i-ia

Now I am home, I'm happy to be
Telling of places I've traveled to see
One little town I'll never forget
Is Lourdes, the village of St. Bernadette

Ave, ave, ave Ma-ri-a
Ave, ave, ave Ma-ri-i-ia

Ave, ave, ave Ma-ri-a
Ave, ave, ave Ma-ri-a


19.Wake Me When It's Over

Lyricist:Andy Williams
Writer(s):Andy Williams

If I am dreaming you've got your arms around me
Wake me when it's over
Wake me when it's over, not before

And if I'm dreaming that love at last has found me
Let me go on dreaming
Wake me when it's over and then let me go to sleep, mm, again

It's hard to believe, my dear, that you're here at all
Incredible, I pinch myself, you don't disappear at all
So if I'm hearing you tell some small-town justice you will not
forsake me
Takin' vows to make me yours ever more
Then darling, wake me when it's over, and not before

Ooh, wake me when it's over
Wake me when it's over and then back to sleep again

It's hard to believe, my dear, that you're here at all
*Incra-DIE-able*, you don't disappear at all
So, tell that small-town justice you'll take me
Tell 'im you'll make me yours ever more
Then darling, wake me when it's over, not befo-o-o-o-ore!
