1.This Guy's In Love With You


2.Stand By Your Man


3.It's A Sin To Tell A Lie


4.Roses are Red

A long, long time ago, on graduation day,
You handed me your book, I signed this way.
Roses are red, my love, violets are blue.
Sugar is sweet, my love, but not as sweet as you.

We dated through high school, and when the big day came,
I wrote into your book, next to your name.
Roses are red, my love, violets are blue.
Sugar is sweet, my love, but not as sweet as you.

Then I went far away and you found someone new.
I read your letter dear, and I wrote back to you.
Roses are red, my love, violets are blue.
Sugar is sweet, my love, good luck - may God bless you.

Is that your little girl? She looks a lot like you.
Someday some boy will write in her book, too.
Roses are red, my love, violets are blue.
Sugar is sweet, my love, but not as sweet as you.


5.Sealed With A Kiss

Lyrics:Gary Geld/Peter Udell
Music:Gary Geld/Peter Udell

'Though we gotta say goodbye for the summer
Darling I promise you this
I'll send you all my love every day in a letter
Sealed with a kiss
Guess it's gonna be a cold lonely summer
But I'll fill the emptiness
I'll send you all my Dream every day in a letter
Sealed with a kiss
I'll see you in the sunlight
I'll hear your voice everywhere
I'll run to tenderly hold you
But darling you won't be there
I don't wanna say goodbye for the summer
Knowing the love we'll miss
Oh let us make a pledge to meet in September
And seal it with a kiss
Yes it's gonna be a cold lonely summer
But I'll fill the emptiness
I'll send you all my love every day in a letter
Sealed with a kiss
Sealed with a kiss
Sealed with a kiss


6.Born Free

Lyrics:Don Black
Music:John Barry

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


7.The Shadow Of Your Smile

Written:Johnny Mandel/Paul Francis Webster
Arranger:Quincy Jones/Billy Byers

The shadow of your smile when you have gone
Will color all my dreams and light the dawn
Look into my eyes, my love, and see
All the lovely things you are to me

Our wistful little star, it was far too high
A teardrop kissed your lips and so, so did I
Now when I remember Spring and every little lovely thing
I will be remembering the shadow of your smile


Your lovely smile

9.Sunrise Sunset

Lyrics:Gerry Beckley
Music:Gerry Beckley

Sunrise sunset
Can't sleep can't forget
Thought I heard your footsteps
Coming home to me

Love comes, love grows
Sure as the wind blows
Like the single red rose
You will have your day

Now is the moment to come to your senses
Tear down the walls and set fire to the fences
Run away, run away

L.A. earthquake
Midnight ground shake
Somewhere in the heartache
There is hope you'll see

Now is the moment and now is forever
Now is the time it will all come together
Run, you gotta run

Once it was only a question of giving
Now we're destroying the life that we're living
Run, you gotta run

Run away, run away
You gotta run away, run away

Sunrise sunset
Can't sleep can't forget
Thought I heard your footsteps
Coming home to me


10.Mr.Lonely

Lonely, I'm Mr. Lonely
I have nobody for my own
I am so lonely, I'm Mr. Lonely
Wish I had someone to call on the phone

Now I'm a soldier, a lonely soldier
Away from home through no wish of my own
That's why I'm lonely, I'm Mr. Lonely
I wish that I could go back home

Letters, never a letter
I get no letters I the mail
I've been forgotten, yes, forgotten
Oh how I wonder, how is it I failed

Now I'm a soldier, a lonely soldier
Away from home through no wish of my own
That's why I'm lonely, I'm Mr. Lonely
I wish that I could go back home


11.Have I Told You Lately That I Love You?

Lyrics:Scott Wiseman
Music:Scott Wiseman

Have I told you lately that I love you?
Could I tell you once again somehow?
Have I told with all my heart and soul how I adore you?
Well darling I'm telling you now

Have I told you lately when I'm sleeping
Every dream I dream is you somehow?
Have I told you why the nights are long
When you're not with me?
Well darling I'm telling you now

My heart would break in two if I should lose you
I'm no good without you anyhow
And have I told you lately that I love you
Well darling I'm telling you now

My heart would break in two if I should lose you
I'm no good without you anyhow
And have I told you lately that I love you
Well darling I'm telling you now


12.Blue On Blue

(Chorus):
Blue on blue, heartache on heartache
Blue on blue now that we are through
Blue on blue, heartache on heartache
And I find I can't get over losing you

I walk along the street we used to walk
Two by two, lovers pass
And as they're passing by, I could die
'cause you're not here with me
Now the trees are bare
There's sadness in the air
And I'm as blue as I can be

(chorus)

Night after lonely night, we meet in dreams
As I run to your side
You wait with open arms, open arms
That now are closed to me
Through a veil of tears
Your vision disappears
And I'm as blue as I can be

(repeat chorus and fade)


13.Blue Velvet

She wore blue velvet
Bluer than velvet was the night
Softer than satin was the light
From the stars
She wore blue velvet
Bluer than velvet were her eyes
Warmer than May her tender sighs
Love was ours
Ours a love I held tightly
Feeling the rapture grow
Like a flame burning brightly
But when she left, gone was the glow of
Blue velvet
But in my heart there'll always be
Precious and warm, a memory
Through the years
And I still can see blue velvet
Through my tears


14.Speak Softly Love(Love Theme From'The Godfather')

Lyrics:Larry Kusik
Music:Nino Rota

Speak softly, love and hold me warm against your heart
I feel your words, the tender trembling moments start
We're in a world, our very own
Sharing a love that only few have ever known

Wine-colored days warmed by the sun
Deep velvet nights when we are one

Speak softly, love so no one hears us but the sky
The vows of love we make will live until we die
My life is yours and all becau-au-se
You came into my world with love so softly love

(instrumental interlude>

Wine-colored days warmed by the sun
Deep velvet nights when we are one

Speak softly, love so no one hears us but the sky
The vows of love we make will live until we die
My life is yours and all becau-au-se
You came into my world with love so softly love
