Nylons Run For Cover Lyrics
1.God Only Knows

I may not always love you
As long as there are stars above you
You never need to doubt it
I'll make you so sure about it

God only knows what i'd be without you

If you should ever leave me
Though life would still go on, believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me

God only knows what i'd be without you
God only knows what i'd be without you

If you should ever leave me
Though life would still go on, believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me

God only knows what i'd be without you


2.Human Family

Are you afraid of what's going on
Right before our very eyes, people losing their lives
It's not a matter of right or wrong
Everyone who's alive has the right to survive
We're all in this together, my friend
Our indifference must end

We're calling out to you, wherever you may be
Everybody take responsibility
This world was made for you and it was made for me
All of us are part of the human family

Can you imagine just how it feels
Knowing each passing day time is ticking away
No time to wait for a miracle
As we hold back the night for a glimmer of light
We need your love and your faith
You can listen before it's too late

We're calling out to you wherever you may be
Everybody take responsibility
This world was made for you and it was made for me
All of us are part of the human family

Stop hiding in the dark
Everybody face and fight the fear
Start reaching with your heart
Show the world that hope is finally here

We're part of one another

Can we do something to ease the pain
Do we know what it's worth to be part of this earth
So many we can't bring back again
And it feels so unfair to the people who care
How many tears must we cry
How many people must die

We're calling out to you wherever you may be
Everybody take responsibility
This world was made for you and made for me
All of us are part of one family

Calling out to you wherever you may be
Everybody take responsibility
This world was made for you, made for me
All of us are part of, all of us are part of
All of us are part of the human family


3.Lady Madonna

See how they run

Lady madonna, children at your feet
Wonder how you manage to make ends meet
Who finds the money when you pay the rent
Did you think that money was heaven sent

Friday night arrives without a suitcase
Sunday morning creeping like a nun
Monday's child has learned to tie his bootlace
See how they run

Lady madonna, baby at your breast
Wonders how you manage to feed the rest

Tuesday afternoon is neverending
Wednesday morning papers didn't come
Thursday night your stockings needed mending
See how they run

Lady madonna, lying on the bed
Listen to the music playing in your head

See how they run

Lady madonna, children at your feet
Wonder how you manage to make ends meet


4.Lovers Never Say Goodbye

Please wait for me, for i shall return
My love for you, will forever burn
Though we must part, there's no reason to cry
Just say so long, because lovers never say goodbye

I love you, my darling
More than life itself
I wouldn't try to hurt you
For i'd only be hurting myself

Just kiss me dear, and hold me tight
For, you know, this is not our last night
Though we must part, there's no reason to cry
Just say so long, because lovers never say goodbye

Never say goodbye
Please don't cry
Never say goodbye


5.Maybe

Maybe if i pray every night
You will come back to me
Maybe if i try every day
You'll come back to stay
Maybe...maybe maybe maybe

Oh, maybe if i hold your hand
You will understand
Maybe if i kiss your lips
I'll be at your command
Maybe...maybe maybe maybe

I prayed and prayed
To the lord
To send you back, my love
I found instead
You'd come to me
Only in my dreams

Maybe if i pray every night
You'll come back to me
Maybe if i try every day
You'll come back to stay
Maybe...maybe maybe maybe

Maybe if i pray every night
You will come back to me
Maybe if i try every day
You will come back to stay
Maybe...maybe maybe maybe


6.My Cherie Amour

My cherie amour, lovely as a summer day
My cherie amour, distant as the milky way
My cherie amour, pretty little one that i adore
You're the only girl my heart beats for
How i wish that you were mine

In a cafe, or sometimes on a crowded street
I'd be near to you, but you never notice me
My cherie amour, won't you tell me how could you ignore
That behind that little smile i wore
How i wish that you were mine

Maybe someday, you'll see my face among the crowd
Maybe someday, i'll share your little distant cloud
Oh cherie amour, pretty little one that i adore
You're the only one my heart beats for
How i wish that you were mine


7.Once Was A Time I Thought/no Moon At All

Once was a time i thought
Love could be sold or bought
Everything fell in place for me
The fashion of passion i rationed with caution
Because of the notion the potion of passion
Had never been passed to me

But since it was sunday and sunny i went for a stroll
The peanuts and pigeons and people put me in a hole
A blessing refreshing in you did unfold
Dispelling depressing distressing thoughts from my soul

Once was a time i thought
Love could be sold or bought
Everything fell in place for me
The fashion of passion i rationed with caution
Because of the notion the potion of passion
Had never been passed to me

Can't you see
No moon at all
What a night
Even lightning bugs have dimmed their light
Stars have disappeared from sight
And there's no moon at all

Don't make a sound
It's so dark
Even fido is afraid to bark
What a perfect chance to park
And there's no moon at all

If you need atmosphere
For inspiration dear
One touch will make it clear
Tonight is right and bright moonlight might interfere

No moon at all
Up above
This is nothing like they told us of
Just to think we fell in love
When there's no moon at all

But since it was sunday and sunny i went for a stroll
The peanuts and pigeons and people put me in a hole
A blessing refreshing in you did unfold
Dispelling depressing distressing thoughts from my soul

Once was a time i thought
Love could be sold or bought
Everything fell in place for me
The fashion the passion i rationed with caution
Because of the notion the potion of passion
Had never been passed to me

But now with you by my side
I find that i'm so satisfied
Somebody must have lied to me


8.Smalltown Boy

You leave in the morning
With everything you own
In a little black case
Alone on a platform
The wind and the rain
On a sad and lonely face

Mother will never understand
Why you had to leave
For the love that you need
Will never be found at home
And the answer you seek
Will never be found at home

Pushed around and kicked around
Always a lonely boy
You were the one
That they'd talk about around town
As they put you down
And as hard as they would try
They'd hurt to make you cry
But you'd never cry to them
Just to your soul
No you'd never cry to them
Just to your soul

Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away


9.Stranded In The Jungle

I crashed in the jungle while trying to keep a date
With my little girl who was back in the states
I was stranded in the jungle, afraid, alone
Trying to figure a way to get a message back home
But how was i to know that the wreckage of my plane
Had been picked up and spotted and my girl in lover's lane

Meanwhile, back in the states

Baby, baby, let's make romance
You know your old-time lover hasn't got a chance
He's stranded in the jungle, sad as he can be
So come on pretty baby, just you and me

Meanwhile, back in the jungle

The boys in the jungle had me on the run
When something heavy hit me like an atomic bomb
When i woke up and my head started to clear
I had a strange feeling i was cooking gear
I smelled something cooking and i looked to see
That's when i found out they was cookin' me
Ooga booga, lemme outta here!

Meanwhile, back in the states

Baby, baby, let's make romance
You know your old-time lover hasn't got a chance
He's stranded in the jungle sad as he can be
So come on pretty baby just you and me

Meanwhile, back in the jungle

I jumped out of the pot, i finally got away
I was frantic, worried about what my baby would say
So i jumped in the ocean and started to swim
My chance of surviving was gettin' slim
So i thumbed down a whale that was headed my way
And i reached the states in about half a day
When i got to lover's lane i was almost dead
Heard him talkin' to my baby, and this is what he said

Baby, baby, the man's no good
Baby, baby, should have understood
You can trust me just as long as you please
So come back pretty baby where you used to be
Cause i love you (i love you, i love you, you're fine baby)
Cause i love you (so damn fine)
Cause i love you (i got a job; i have money too)
Cause i love you (did i show you my vehicle)
Cause i love you (i'll take you for a ride)
Cause i love you


10.The Girl Can't Help It

If she walks by the men all stand engrossed
She can't help it, the girl can't help it
If she winks an eye bread slices turn to toast
She can't help it, the girl can't help it
Yes, she's got a lot of what they call the most
She can't help it, the girl can't help it

The girl can't help it if she was born to please
And if she's got a figure made to squeeze
Oh won't you kindly be aware
The girl can't help it

She mesmerizes every mother's son
She can't help it, the girl can't help it
And if she smiles their steak becomes well done
She can't help it, the girl can't help it
She makes grampa feel like twenty-one
She can't help it, the girl can't help it

The girl can't help it if she was born to please
She can't help it, the girl can't help it
And if i go to her on bended knees
She can't help it, the girl can't help it
Oh won't you kindly be aware that i can't help it
Just can't help it
Cause oh, i'm hopin' obviously
That someday the answer will be
The girl can't help it if she's in love with me

She walks by the men all stand in rows
Yes she winks an eye ...
Yes she's got a lot of what they call the most

Well, the girl can't help it if she was born to please
And if she's got a figure made to squeeze
Cause oh i'm hopin' obviously
That someday the answer will be
The girl can't help it if she's in love with me


11.The Shoop Shoop Song

Does she love me
I wanna know
How can you tell if she loves you so

Is it in her eyes
Oh no, you'll be decieved
Is it in her eyes
Oh no, she'll make believe
If you wanna know if she loves you so
It's in her kiss

Is it in her face
Oh no, that's just her charms
In her warm embrace
Oh no, that's just her arms
If you wanna know if she loves you so
It's in her kiss

Kiss her and squeeze her tight
And find out what you wanna know
If it's love, if it really is
It's there in her kiss

How 'bout the way she acts
Oh no, that's not the way
And you're not listening to what i say
If you wanna know if she loves you so
It's in her kiss

You gotta kiss her and love her and squeeze her tight
Whoa baby, oo

Kiss her and squeeze her tight
Find out what you wanna know
If it's love, if it really is
It's there in her kiss

How 'bout the way she acts
Oh no that's not the way
And you're not listening to what i say
If you wanna know if she loves you so
It's in her kiss
Yeah, it's in her kiss
