1.The Summer
On darkened streets tonight
I see a simple time
I see the warning light
When the summer comes undone
No sorry closing eyes
No cutting down to size
No other thoughts arise
When the summer comes undone
On darkened streets tonight
I make a wrong turn right
Take in the lonely sight
When the summer comes undone
And I won't wait
And I won't have to
I just waste my time alone
'til the summer comes undone
'til the summer comes undone
'til the summer comes undone
2.Here Comes My Baby
Lyricist:Cat Stevens
In the midnight, moonlight hour
She's walking along that lonely mile
And every time I do
I keep seeing these pictures of you
Here comes my baby, here she comes now
And now it comes as no surprise to me
With another guy
Well, here comes my baby, here she comes now
Walking with a love, with a love that's, oh, so fine
Never to be mine, no matter how I try
You never walk alone
And you're forever talking on the phone
I try to call you names
But every time, it comes out the same
Here comes my baby, here she comes now
And now it comes as no surprise to me
With another guy
Well, here comes my baby, here she comes now
Walking with a love, with a love that's, oh, so fine
Never to be mine, no matter how I try
Here comes my baby, here she comes now
And now it comes as no surprise to me
With another guy
Well, here comes my baby, here she comes now
Walking with a love, with a love that's, oh, so fine
Never to be mine, no matter how I try
No matter how I try, no matter how I try
3.You Tore Me Down
Lyricist:Cyril Henri Jordan, Christopher Wilson
Everybody knows that you've been untrue
You've gone and broke my heart and made me blue
Turned my head around then you tore me down
If I had a choice, I'd not be sad
'Cause when I hear your voice it makes me mad
Baby's not around but she's leaving town
Baby, baby don't run away
I want you to stay, I'm sorry, so sorry
I made you blue and now you should be sorry too
Should be sorry too
Now I'm so alone, you're far away
I sit here at home no words to say
To anyone around 'cause you tore me down
Tore me down, tore me down, tore me down
4.Tried So Hard
Lyricist:Gene Clark
Stopped awhile this morning on my way back home
I had to realize this time that I'd be all alone
'Cause she is moving somewhere far away not slow
And though I tried so hard to please her
She said she really had to go
Even though this time it really hurts me bad
I've been through similarities, it's not the first break I've
had
And I just can't let it bring me down so low
And though I tried so hard to please her
There must be something more to know
Never thought that we would find our end this way
It seemed that everything was going fine
Still with all the things that I can do or say
It won't change the fate I know so well is mine
So I'll stop and look right past the pain
Because I've been in love before and I can love again
While she's moving somewhere far away not slow
I know I tried so hard to please her
She said she really had to go
5.Oklahoma, U.S.A.
Lyricist:Ray Davies
All life we work, oh, work is a bore
If life's for livin', what's livin' for?
She lives in a house that's near decay
Built for the industrial revolution
But in her dreams she is far, far away
In Oklahoma, U.S.A.
With Shirley Jones and Gordon McRea
While she buys her papers at the corner shop
She's walkin' on the Surrey with the fringe on top
'Cause in her dreams she is far, far away
In Oklahoma, U.S.A.
She walks to work but she's still in a daze
She's Rita Hayworth or Doris Day
And Errol Flynn's wants to take her away
To Oklahoma, U.S.A.
All life we work, oh, work is a bore
If life's for livin', what's livin' for?
6.What Can I Say
Lyricist:Joseph Nicholas Spampinato
When we're alone here
Just me and you
Why can't you tell me
You love me too
And when I hold you
You turn away
I just don't know you
What can I say
I don't know why
You run and hide
I don't know why
You fear inside
I've tried to tell you
In every way
I just don't know you
What can I say
I don't know why
You run and hide
I don't know why
You fear inside
I've tried to tell you
In every way
I just don't know you
What can I say
I just don't know you
What can I say
7.Did I Tell You*
Did I tell you of the dark lonely road
I was counting my steps as I made my way home
Days of nothing but time on your hands, weighing on me
Can't deny it, undecided
Whether to count what I felt against what I could say
I try not to wonder, or tell you that I'm not willing to wait
'Cause deep in my heart I'm willing, heart's still willing
Brain's impatient, my heart's still willing to wait.
Our love is so important to me
Starts wherever you land, walks right over to me
Days of nothing but time in between, I'll be asleep
So unwary or uncaring
I try not to be part of that, well, that's easy to say
I try not to wonder, or tell you that I'm not willing to wait
'Cause deep in my heart I'm willing, heart's still willing
Brain's impatient, my heart's still willing to wait.
There's a moment to discover no one can take all the blame
and it's finally clear.
I try not to wonder, or tell you that I'm not willing to wait
'Cause deep in my heart I'm willing, heart's still willing
Brain's impatient, my heart's still willing to wait,
willing to wait, willing to wait
8.Can't Forget
It seems falling down
Far away, lost at sea
For the one that's left behind
For the wave of you and me
And maybe I know that
Maybe it's better
But I can't forget the time
I know where I am
Every day, every night
Like the one who knows too much
But trusts the same old thing
Maybe I know that
Maybe it's better
But I can't forget the time
Realizing nothing
I remember when
Maybe I know that
Maybe it's better
But I can't forget the time
Maybe I know that
Maybe it's better
Maybe it's nothing
But I can't forget the time
9.Griselda
Come won't you walk with me Griselda
Wearing the dress that moonlight shines through.
I am a sad and lonely boy
Since your mother said I couldn't see you
Slipping through the wood in the dark of the night
Calling to the moon out yonder
O Lady Moon won't you shine a silver light, and lead me to my
Griselda
Do you recall last night Griselda?
Learning the lessons nature taught us
Watching the fish up the lake
It was lovely till your mother caught us
Slipping through the wood in the dark of the night
Calling to the moon out yonder
O Lady Moon won't you shine a silver light, and lead me to my
Griselda
Moonflower find upon the window
Give me a foothold for my finding
I've got a row boat on the lake
Fishing around and all the sun was shining
Slipping through the wood in the dark of the night
Calling to the moon out yonder
O Lady Moon won't you shine a silver light, and lead me to my
Griselda
I've got a jug of wine Griselda
Why must you waste your time in sorrow?
Hold out your hand, have no fear
If we're caught, I'll marry you tomorrow
Slipping through the wood in the dark of the night
Calling to the moon out yonder
O Lady Moon won't you shine a silver light, and lead me to my
Griselda
Slipping through the wood in the dark of the night
Calling to the moon out yonder
O Lady Moon won't you shine a silver light, and lead me to my
Griselda
10.Barnaby, Hardly Working
For the moment slipped right through him
Combed his hair, combed his hair
Knew the feeling of contentment
The actors' actor
The actors' actor
Smiled a smile uncomprehending
I took his time, took his time
Wore a hat, so he'd impress her
They took a ride
They took a ride
As I could wait for hours
I could wait and never fall down
Never fall down
Never fall down
Face down beside the river
11.Yellow Sarong
The man in the moon taps at the window
How will we know your silhouette?
How will we reach you?
Waving his hands, shouting
Is there anymore to that yellow sarong?
It's more than just a bit of grass:
What a landscape!
Yea yea yea
Yea yea yea
Yea yea yea
A man in the moon taps at the window
How will we know your silhouette?
How will we reach you?
Yea yea yea
Yea yea yea
Yea yea yea

14.What Comes Next
i been back and forth
around and 'roudn
taking back the last thing that i say
and it made me wonder
made me wonder just where i went wrong
on a lazy drive i don't know where
didn't even care if i got home
and it made me wonder
made me wonder how i could be good
time won't wait for you
i'll wait for you always
some things should never change
and it made me wonder
when you wonder just what happens next
15.The One To Cry
i told you if i ever caught you fooling round again
that if you were untrue
that you and I are through
but now i've caught you and i know that this should be the end
though i should tell you so
my heart keeps saying no
oh if i say goodbye then i am gonna be the one to cry
cry cry cry cry
cry cry cry cry
cry cry cry cry
cry cry cry cry
oh i can't bare to be the one to keep you from my side
how could you be so cruel
you played me for a fool
but if i change my mind then i would throw away my pride
so now what should i do
oh how i wish i knew
oh if i say goodbye then i am gonna be the one to cry
cry cry cry cry

oh how i wish i knew
oh if i say goodbye then i am gonna be the one to cry
cry cry cry cry

cry cry cry cry
cry cry cry cry
16.Andalucia
Andalucia when can I see you?
When it is snowing out again?
Farmer John wants you
Louder and softer closer and dearer, then again
Needing you, taking you, keeping you, leaving you
In a year and a day to be sure
That your face doesn't alter
Your words never falter - I love you
I'll be here waiting later and later
Hoping the night will go away
Andalucia castles and Christians
Andalucia come to stay
You were lost, once before, on a day much like this
When you'd made up your mind not to come
And I couldn't persuade you
Or wait until tomorrow - or pass the time
