Into White

Carly Simon Into White Lyrics
1.Into White

I built my house from barley rice
Green pepper walls and water ice
Tables of paper wood, windows of light
And everything emptying into white.


A simple garden, with acres of sky
A Brown-haired dogmouse
If one dropped by
Yellow Delanie would sleep well at night
With everything emptying into white.


And everything emptying into white.

A sad Blue eyed drummer rehearses outside
A Black spider dancing on top of his eye
Red legged chicken stands ready to strike
And everything emptying into white.


2.Oh! Susanna

I came from Alabama wid my banjo on my knee,
I'm g'wan to Louisiana my true love for to see,
It rain'd all night the day I left, the weather it was dry,
The sun so hot I frose to death; Susanna, dont you cry.

Oh! Susanna, Oh! dont you cry for me,
I've come from Alabama, wid my banjo on my knee.


I had a dream de odder night when ebery ting was still;
I thought I saw Susanna, a coming down de hill.
The buckwheat cake war in her mouth, the tear was in her eye,
Says I'm coming from de South, Susanna, dont you cry.
Oh! Susanna, Oh! dont you cry for me,
I've come from Alabama, wid my banjo on my knee.


I came from Alabama wid my banjo on my knee,
I'm g'wan to Louisiana my true love for to see,


3.Blackbird

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise.

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to be free.

Blackbird fly Blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night.


Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise.


4.You Can Close Your Eyes

Well the sun is surely sinking down, but the moon is slowly
rising.
So this old world must still be spinning round and I still love
you.

So close your eyes, you can close your eyes, it's all right.
I don't know no love songs and I can't sing the blues anymore.
But I can sing this song and you can sing this song when I'm
gone.

It won't be long before another day, we gonna have a good time.
And no one's gonna take that time away. You can stay as long as
you like.

So close your eyes, you can close your eyes, it's all right.
I don't know no love songs and I can't sing the blues anymore.
But I can sing this song and you can sing this song when I'm
gone.


5.Quiet Evenin'

What's every body tell me?
won't you let me know
quite evening as sleepy and I'm holding on
and got to know where to go
quiet evening you know you still have friends
and they'll be waiting for you

quiet evening
you've been long in form
quiet evening
you've been long and take this night for the sick and soul

and lone night call the sight of cover hills
this is nothing but the hidden fills
quiet evening
cars from fly on the lonely way
all these have a map to say
quiet evening
you know you still have friends
and they'll be waiting for you
quiet evening
you've been long in form
quiet evening
you've been long and some people like stay up late but take this
night for the sick and soul

7.Jamaica Farewell

Down the day where the nights are gay
And the sun shines daily on the mountain top
I took a trip on a sailing ship
And when I reached Jamaica I made a stop
But I'm sad to say I'm on my way
Won't be back for many a day
My heart is down, my head is turning around
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town

Sounds of laughter everywhere
And the dancing girls sway to and fro
I must declare my heart is there
Though I've been from Maine to Mexico
But I'm sad to say I'm on my way
Won't be back for many a day
My heart is down, my head is turning around
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town


Down the market you can hear
Ladies cry out while on their heads they bear
'Akey' rice, salt fish are nice
And the rum is fine any time of year
But I'm sad to say I'm on my way
Won't be back for many a day
My heart is down, my head is turning around
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town

I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town


8.You Are My Sunshine

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are grey
You'll never know, dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away

The other night, dear, as I lay sleeping
I dreamed I held you in my arms
When I awoke, dear, I was mistaken
Please don't take my sunshine away


Please don't take my sunshine away


9.I Gave My Love A Cherry (The Riddle Song)

I gave my love a cherry
That had no stone
I gave my love a chicken
That had no bone
I told my love a story
That had no end
I gave my love a baby
With no crying.
How can there be a cherry
That has no stone?
And how can there be a chicken
That has no bone?
And how can there be a story
That has no end?
And how can there be a baby
With no crying?


A cherry when it's blooming
It has no stone
A chicken when it's piping
It has no bone
The story that I love you
It has no end
A baby when it's sleeping
It's no crying.


10.Devoted To You All I Have To Do Is Dream

Darling you can count on me
'Till the sun dries up the sea
Until then I'll always be
Devoted to you

I'll be yours 'till endless time
I'll adore your charms sublime
Guess by now you know that I'm
Devoted to you

I'll never hurt you
I'll never lie
I'll never be untrue
I'll never give you reason to cry
I'd be unhappy if you were blue
Through the years our love will grow
Like a river it will flow
It can't die because I'm so
Devoted to you


Dream,
Dream, dream, dream,
Dream,
Dream, dream, dream
When I want you
In the night,
When I want you
To hold me tight,
Whenever I want you
All I have to do is dream,
Dream, dream, dream,
Dream


11.Scarborough Fair

Are you going to Scarborough Fair:
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.
Remember me to one who lives there.
he once was a true love of mine.

Ask to find me an acre of land:
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme;
Between the salt water and over the sea
Then she'll be a true love of mine.

Tell him to make me a cambric shirt:
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme;
let me know at least will try
Then he'll be a true love of mine.

love is impossise in possible tase
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme;
do not any more than any heart success
he once was a true love of mine.


12.Over The Rainbow

Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby

Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true

Some day I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemondrops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me

Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can't I?


13.Love Of My Life

I love lilacs and avocados
Ukuleles and fireworks
And Woody Allen and walking in the snow
But you've got to know that

You're the love of my life
You are the love of my life
You are the love of my life
You are the love of my life
From the moment I first saw you
The second that you were born
I knew that you were the love of my life
Quite simply the love of my life


I love Lucy and pumpernickel bread
The Statue Of Liberty and chocolate ice cream
And falling into bed
But get it through your head that

You're the love of my life
You are the love of my life
You are the love of my life
You are the love of my life
From the moment I first saw you
The second that you were born
I knew that you were the love of my life
Quite simply the love of my life


You are the love the great love of my life.


14.I'll Just Remember You

I don't remember day and night
don't remember any fight
I don't remember what to do
I just remember you
I can't recall a summber briss
whisper through the apple tree
and I forget the songs I knew
I just remember you

Time to go on
so which life to be lived on my own
some day I wake up
as good as new
Then I remember skies of blue
and some boys I almost knew
I try my best but I know it's true
I just remember you
