Dusty Springfield Ooooooweeee Lyrics
1.Don't Let Me Lose This Dream

(aretha franklin / ted white)

If i lose this dream
I don't know what i'm gonna do
If i lose this dream
I'm dreaming about for me and you

If it goes away
I might as well hang it up
'cause i don't know
If i have the heart or mind
To make it true
Or help it grow
And i only know, i only know, i only know

If i lose this dream
It's goodbye love and happiness, yes
You're the one i need
I don't want a love
That's second best
There've been all of my life
I wanted to do
That made me blue

Help me hold onto this dream
For sometimes dreams often come true
And they all come true, they all come true
For me and you
Wait a minute baby

Don't let me lose this dream
Baby, baby hold on
Don't let me lose my dream, no
Baby, baby be strong

You say that a-you believe that what i say is true
And that i'm the one and only girl for you
Just tell me
That no matter what the people say
You're in my corner all the way
And i won't lose this dream
Baby, baby hold on
Don't let me lose my dream, no
Baby, baby be strong

Don't let me lose this dream
Baby, baby hold on
Don't let me lose, lose my dream
Baby, baby hold on
Don't let me, ooh baby


2.Go Ahead On

(madeline bell / dusty springfield)

If you're gonna break my heart
Go ahead on
Guess you think you're kinda smart
Go ahead on
(well you've got another girl)
And you're having fun
(got her head in a whirl)
See what you've done
Go ahead on
(go ahead on)
I said go ahead on
(go ahead on)

You never call me on the 'phone
Make me so sad
Sittin' all alone
Feelin' bad
(tired of being your fool)
'cause you told me lies
(i can't take no more)
Of no alibi
Go ahead on
(go ahead on)
Go ahead on
(go ahead on)

For a little while
We had a good thing goin'
Everything was peaches and cream
But the devil in you started showin'
Do you understand now
What i mean?

You put me down
Every night
If you wanna be a clown
That's all right
(when it's all too late)
Then you'll see
(she's done the same to you)
Like you did it to me
Go ahead on
(go ahead on)
Go ahead on
(go ahead on)

You put me down
Every night
If you wanna be a clown
That's all right
(when it's all too late)
Baby you'll see
(she's done the same to you)
Like you did it to me
Go ahead on
(go ahead on)
Go ahead on
(go ahead on)

Git, git, git
(go ahead on)
Go ahead on
(go ahead on)
You'd better pack your bag
(go ahead on)
Go ahead on
(go ahead on)
Bye, bye, bye
(go ahead on)
Go ahead on


3.He's Got Something

(samwell / lynch)

He's got something
I don't know what but it's grand
I can feel it each time he touches my hand

When we walk
When we talk
Yeah
I feel so fine
He's got something
And it's mine, all mine

He's got something
I feel it each time we kiss
And he thrills me
Each time he holds me like this

When we part
Breaks my heart
I miss him so
He's got something
Only lovers know

He's got something
It's so fine
He's got something
Mine, all mine
He's got something
I miss him so
He's got something
Only lovers know
Yeah

He's got something
I don't know what but it's grand
I can feel it each time he touches my hand

When we walk
When we talk
Yeah
I feel so fine
He's got something
And it's mine, all mine

When we part
Breaks my heart
Yeah
I miss him so
He's got something
Only lovers know

He's got something only lovers know, oh


4.Here She Comes

(j. kookoolis / s. trimachi)

Here she comes
A girl who has everything
Here she comes
A girl who wants something from me

A spoiled girl who thinks nothing of
Of breaking up two people in love
Here she comes

Look at a-her
No shame how she carries on
Look at a-him, now
Just think of it, he'll soon be gone

Lost in the arms of what money could buy
Gee, i hope she can't buy my guy
'cause i love him

Ooh, you can tell just at a glance
Next to her a poor girl has no chance
She's the kind who knows how to live
And she knows i only have my love to give, oh, oh

Look at a-them
I guess i should walk away
Oh, look at me now
I won't let 'em see my cryin' this way

Just then i heard him calling me
I turned around and looked and see
He was running, running after me
Oh, he loves me, yes, he loves me, oh, oh
There she goes
Well, he's running after me now
There she goes
I'm the only one he loves now
There she goes
Oh, there she goes


5.I Wanna Make You Happy

(c. weil / r.tietelman)

What a nice party
And i know just why i'm feeling so new
'cause i came along and i found you

I wanna make you happy tonight
I wanna make you happy tonight

It's just like magic
Dancing with you
While we're sharing a kiss
Oh, i've been in love
But never, no never, like this

I wanna make you happy tonight
I wanna make you happy tonight and every day i live, yeah
I wanna give you all i have to give
Oh, i wanna make you so happy, yeah, oh

Yes, i've been in love
But never, no never, like this
I wanna make you happy tonight
I wanna make you so happy, child
Come on, i wanna make you so


6.I Will Always Want You

(s. simoni / u. bindi / english
lyrics:unknown)

Don't go
There's so much left to tell you
You just don't know how need you
I never said how i cared
Until now that you're leaving
I can't hide what i'm feeling

Please wait, there's so much left to tell you
I never said how i loved you
Oh, can't you stay one more day?
And i'll try to show all of the love
That i used to keep from you

Words alone can't make you love me
But how else am i to say to you
That i know i will always want you?

Help me, i can't stop myself crying
Help me, 'cause i feel like i'm dying
Please can't you stay with me?
'cause i can't live without you, my love

Words alone can't make you love me
But how else am i to say to you
That i know i will always want you?, oh, oh, oh, oh

So, help me, i can't stop myself crying
Help me 'cause i feel like i'm dying
Please can't you stay with me?
'cause i can't live without you, my love


7.I'll Love You For A While

(gerry goffin / carole king)

Yeah, i will love you for a while
Just how long i cannot say
Long before love grows old
I'll be on my way

While there's fire in your eyes
I will hold you to my heart
Oh, but when the fire dies
We will have to part

Love is strange
While now it makes us glad
When our love's no longer new
It'll make us sad, yeah

So, i will love you for a while
More than that i will not tell
When i leave you
You will say that i loved too well

Yeah, love is strange
While now it makes us glad
When our love's no longer new
It'll make us sad, yeah

So, i will love you for a while
More than that i will not tell
And when i leave you
You will say that i loved too well
Say that i loved too well, boy
Say that i loved too well, yeah
Say that i loved too well-ell
Say that i loved too well, child
Say that i loved too well


8.If Wishes Could Be Kisses

(r. alfred / w. farrell)

Baby, if wishes could be kisses
And dreams could make you mine
I wouldn't be a-sitting here
Wasting all this time
No, no, baby, if you call me
I'd race down the street
I'd be there so fast
You'd think i had wings on my feet
Oh, baby, if wishes could be kisses
I'd wish with all my mind
I wouldn't have to make believe
I'm in your arms tonight

No, no, baby
I could thrill you if you'd let me try
We'd take off together
And we'd tell this world goodbye

But i know it just can't be
Unless you feel the same as me, oh, yeah-heah
Baby, if wishes could be kisses
Then i'd be first in line
If i'm not wrong it won't take long
'til you're my valentine

Oh, oh, baby, if you hear me
Make me know you do
If i'm lucky i'll find out
That you've been wishing too
A-come on, baby
A-come on, baby
If wishes could be kisses, oh, yeah
Oh, if wishes could be

Woah, baby, if you hear me
Make me know you do
If i'm lucky i'll find out
That you've been wishing too
A-come on, baby
Woah, come on, baby
If wishes could be kisses, now, yeah
If wishes could be kisses, yeah


9.Losing You

(tom springfield / clive westlake)

How many tears do you cry
If love should break your heart in two?
How many tears will i cry
Now that i know i'm losing you?

I can't stop wanting you
And no matter what you do
You're still a part of me
Even though i'm losing you, oh

How many years will go by
Before my heart begins to mend?
Waiting and wondering why
I never thought our love could end

I try forgetting you
But you're still here on my mind
It would take a miracle
But someday maybe i'll find

That i'm in the loving arms of someone
That i'll know, know he's the someone
Who'll kiss all the heartache away
And come that day
I won't mind losing you

Yes, i try forgettin' you
But you're still here on my mind
It would take, yeah, a miracle
But someday maybe i'll find

That i'm in the loving arms of someone
That i'll know, know he's the someone
Who'll kiss all the heartache away
And when he comes to me that day
I won't mind losing you, oh, oh
I won't mind losing you, yeah
I won't mind losing you


10.Losing You(Track From'White Heat'Album)

(elvis costello)

Layin' about, lying in bed
Maybe it was somethin' i thought i said
With the tempo of the damned, the temptation of tomorrow
I don't know if i can give you anything but sorrow

They stay alive this late on radio five
But the pen that i write with won't tell the truth
But the moments that i care about are moments that i treasure
Better take another measure for pleasure

Losing you
Is just a memory
Memories don't mean that much to me
Losing you
Is just a memory
Memories don't mean that much to me

I count the pages of the letter i write
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine
Tearin' up the sheets of love this hand could not disguise
I'll start to count again and close my eyes

Losing you
Is just a memory
Memories don't mean that much to me
Losing you
Is just a memory
Memories don't mean that much to me

Now you're here
I'm here too
Can be this easy for me and you

Now you're here
I'm here too
Be this easy for me and you

Losing you
Is just a memory
Memories don't mean that much to me
Losing you
Is just a memory
Memories don't mean that much to me

Layin' about, lying in bed
Could be something that i thought i said


11.Now That You're My Baby

(gerry goffin / arthur kornfield / toni wine)

(now that you're my baby)
(now that you're my baby)
You're never gonna run around
Or see that girl who lives up town
I'll be trying everyday
To keep you happy in every way
So you won't ever want to run around
Now that you're my baby

You can kiss your playboy days goodbye
You're gonna be a different guy
From now on you're gonna be
Spending all your time with me
So you can kiss your playboy days goodbye
Now that you're my baby

I can give you all the loving
You've been searching for
I love you
Always dreaming of you
You ain't gonna run around no more
No, no, no, no more

Baby, i can give to you
A love that's good and oh-so true
So, you can throw your little black book away
Now that you're my baby

I can give you all the loving
You've been searching for
I love you
Always dreaming of you
You ain't gonna run around no more

You can throw your little black book away
You'll be my man starting today
Baby, i can give to you
A love that's good and oh-so true
So you can throw your little black book away
Now that you're my baby
Gonna be a different guy
You're gonna kiss those days goodbye
Now that you're my baby


12.Once Upon A Time

(dusty springfield)

When you passed my way
It seemed my lucky day
The world was oh-so fine
Once upon a time

We walked for a little while
You smiled that special smile
And when we said goodnight
You held me oh-so tight

Then you found someone new
And i spent my nights alone
'cause now we're through
There's nothing i can do
I gotta say forget
Forget him, forget him
'cause he's no good, no, no

Now, when you pass my way
I guess i'll smile and say
To think that boy was mine
Once upon a time

To think that boy was mine
Once upon a time
Once upon a time
Woh, oh, once upon a time
No, no, no, no, no, once upon a time


13.When The Lovelight Starts Shining Through His Eyes

(holland / dozier / holland)

He gave me the eye
But i just passed him by
I treated him unkind
But he didn't seem to mind
I told him be on his way
Not a word did he say
He just stood there kind of bored
What am i acting for?

When the lovelight starts shining through his eyes
Made me realise i should apologise
And when he placed a kiss upon my face
Then i knew, oh baby i knew
That he'd won my heart

So i quickly apologised
Hopin' he hadn't changed his mind
Not a word did he say
So i turned to walk away

When the lovelight starts shining through his eyes
Made me realise all he felt inside
And when he placed a kiss upon my lips
Then i knew, oh baby i knew
That he'd won my heart, oh yeah

Then he asked could he walk my way
I hoped sweet things he'd say
Then he smiled a-kind of nice
As he held my hand kind of tight

When the lovelight starts shining through his eyes
Made me realise all he felt inside
And when he placed a kiss upon my face
Then i knew, oh baby i knew
A-that he'd won my heart, oh yeah

When the lovelight starts shining through his eyes
Made me realise all i felt inside
And when he placed a kiss upon my face
Then i knew, oh, baby, i knew
A-that he'd won my heart, oh yeah
That he'd won my heart


14.You Don't Own Me

(john maldara / david white)

You don't own me
I'm not just one of your many toys
You don't own me
Don't say i can't go with other boys

And don't tell me what to do
And don't tell me what to say
And, please, when i go out with you
Don't put me on display

'cause, you don't own me
Don't try to change me in any way
You don't own me
Don't tie me down
'cause i'll never stay

I don't tell you what to say
I don't tell you what to do
So, just let me be myself
That's all i ask of you

I'm young and i love to be young
I'm free and i love to be free
To live my life the way that i want
To say and do whatever i please

And, don't tell me what to do, yeah
Don't, don't you tell me what to say
And, please, when i go out with you
Don't put me on display

I don't tell you what to say
I don't tell you what to do
So, just let me be myself
That's all i ask of you
I'm young and i love to be young
I'm free and i love to be free
To live my life the way that i want
To say


15.Your Hurtin' Kind Of Love

(ivor raymonde / mike hawker)

I wanted you so
Wanted you to hold me tight
Take my love and treat me right

I needed your love so
But you're just the hurtin' kind
Nearly drove me out of my mind

Your hurtin' kinda love
Your hurtin' kinda love, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
It left me crying

I'd never been blue
I never had to cry all day
Tryin' to wash the hurt away
But then i fell for you
Giving you the love i had
Just to have you treat me so bad

Your hurtin' kinda love
Your hurtin' kinda love, oh, oh, oh, oh
It left me crying

So, now you're with another love
It just may be your lover
Could be the one to do what you have
Done to me, yeah

I want you to know
Even though you broke my heart
I can make a brand new start
I'm so glad to see you go
You will bring me no more pain
I will never cry again

Your hurtin' kinda love
Your hurtin' kinda love, oh, oh
It's over, baby, yeah

Your hurtin' kinda love
Your hurtin' kinda love
Come on baby, take this hurt off me, yeah
Come on baby, take this hurt off me, yeah
Come on baby, take this hurt off me
