Hotel California

(Don Felder/Don Henley/Glen Frey)

On a dark desert highway / Cool wind in my hair / Warm smell of colitas / Rising up through the air / Up ahead in the distance / I saw a shimmering light / My head grew heavy, and my sight grew dim / I had to stop for the night / There she stood in the doorway / I heard the mission bell / And I was thinking to myself / This could be Heaven or this could be Hell / Then she lit up a candle / And she showed me the way / There were voices down the corridor / I thought I heard them say / Welcome to the Hotel California / Such a lovely place / Such a lovely face / Plenty of room at the Hotel California / Any time of year / You can find it here / Her mind is Tiffany twisted / She's got the Mercedes bends / She's got a lot of pretty, pretty boys / That she calls friends / How they dance in the courtyard / Sweet summer sweat / Some dance to remember / Some dance to forget / So I called up the Captain / Please bring me my wine / He said / We haven't had that spirit here since 1969 / And still those voices are calling from far away / Wake you up in the middle of the night / Just to hear them say / Welcome to the Hotel California / Such a lovely Place / Such a lovely face / They're livin' it up at the Hotel California / What a nice surprise / Bring your alibies / Mirrors on the ceiling / Pink champagne on ice / And she said / We are all just prisoners here / Of our own device / And in the master's chambers / They gathered for the feast / They stab it with their steely knives / But they just can't kill the beast / Last thing I remember / I was running for the door / I had to find the passage back to the place I was before / Relax said the nightman / We are programed to recieve / You can check out any time you like / But you can never leave

I Got A Name

(Norman Gimbel/Charle Fox)

Like the pine trees lining the winding road / I got a name I got a name / Like the singing bird and the croaking toad / I got a name I got a name / And I carry it with me like my daddy did / But I'm living the dream that he kept hid / Moving me down the highway rolling me down the highway / Moving ahead so life won't pass me by / Like the north wind whistlin down the sky / I got a song I got a song / Like the whippoorwill and the baby's cry / I got a song I got a song / And I carry it with me and I sing it loud / If it gets me nowhere I'll go there proud / Moving me down the highway rolling me down the highway / Moving ahead so life won't pass me by / And I'm gonna go there free / Like the fool I am and I'll always be / I got a dream I got a dream / They can change their minds but the can't change me / I got a dream I got a dream / Oh I know I could share it if you'd want me to / If you're going my way I'll go with you / Moving me down the highway rolling me down the highway / Moving ahead so life won't pass me by

I Just Can't Help Believing / You've Got Your Troubles (I've Got Mine)

"You've Got Your..." originally recorded in 1967 by The Fortunes

(Barry Mann/Cynthia Weil) (Roger Cook/Roger Greenaway)

I just can't help believin' / When she smiles up soft and gentle / With a trace of misty mornin' / And the promise of tomorrow in her eyes / And I just can't help believin' / When she's lyin' close beside me / And my heart beats with the rhythm of her siighs / This time the girl is gonna stay / This time the girl is gonna stay / for more than just a day / I just can't help believin' / When she slips her hand in my hand / And it feels so small and helpless / That my fingers fold around it like a glove / And I just can't help believin' / When she's whisperin' her magic / And her tears are shinin' honey sweet with love / This time the girl is gonna stay (this time the girl is gonna stay) / This time the girl is gonna stay / for more than just a day / For more than just a day / (Just can't help believin')

I see that worried look upon your face / You've got your troubles I've got mine / You've found somebody else to take my place / You've got your troubles and I've got mine / I too have lost my love today / All of my dreams have blown away / Now just like you I sit and wonder why / You've got your troubles and I've got mine / You need some sympathy well so do I / You've got your troubles and I've got mine / You used to love me that I know / Not so very long ago / We were walking we were talking the way that lovers do / I have another place another time / I know you've got your troubles honey I've got mine / You've got your troubles I've got mine / You've got your troubles I've got mine

I Saw The Light

(Todd Rundgren)

It was late last night / I was feeling something wasn't right / There was not another soul in sight / Only you, only you / So we walked along / though I knew there was something wrong / And the feeling hot me oh so strong about you / Then you gazed up at me and the answer was plain to see / 'Cause I saw the light in your eyes / Though we had our fling / I just never would suspect a thing / 'Til that little bell began to ring in my head / In my head / But I tried to run / though I knew it wouldn't help me none / 'Cause I couldn't ever love no one, or so I said / But my feelings for you / were just something I never knew / 'Til I saw the light in your eyes / But I love you best / It's not something that I say in jest (ha ha) / 'Cause you're different, girl, from all the rest / In my eyes / And I ran out before but I won't do it anymore / Can't you see the light in my eyes

I'll Be Waiting

(Sam Hui/D. So)

Now I know somewhere there's bound to be / A certain girl who would really care for me / Somebody who will be the only one / To fill my life with lots of fun / I'll be waiting I'll be waiting I'll be waiting / Cos I know only that to go my own / And she will stay with me when I'm all alone / I'm gonna be her only loving man / And treat her as good as I can / I'll be waiting I'll be waiting I'll be waiting / I won't give up till I find her / To me she's a priceless pearl, priceless pearl

I'll Paint You A Song

(Mac Davis)

I'm just a country boy, there's little I can offer you / Just rhymes and melodies are all I have to give / But I've made friends with life, and I can comfort you / If you'll just come with me, I'll show you how to live / I'll sing you a morning with laughing bluebirds / I'll sing you a fairytale, full of ribbons and crepe paper words / I'll sing you a rainbow you can keep for your own / I'll sing you a morning, I'll paint you a song / I look inside your eyes and find there just a little girl / Whose dreams have gone astray somewhere along the way / But if you'll close your eyes and step inside my world / I'll take you by the hand, we'll find a brand new day / I'll sing you a meadow with marshmallow skies / I'll sing you a puppy dog with a pink tongue and big loving eyes / I'll sing you a sunset that glows all the night long / I'll sing you a meadow, I'll paint you a song / Won't you come along?

If You Could Read My Mind

(Gordon Lightfoot)

If you could read my mind, love / What a tale my thoughts could tell / Just like and old time movie / Bout a ghost from a wishing well / In a castle dark or a fortress strong / With chains upon my feet / You know that ghost is me / And I will never be set free / As long as I'm a ghost that you can't see / If I could read your mind, love / What a tale your thoughts could tell / Just like a paper back novel / The kind the drug stores sell / Then you reached the part / Where the heartaches come / The heros would be me / But heros often fail / And you won't read that book again / Because the ending's just too hard to take / I'd walk away like a movie star / Who gets burned in a three way script / Enter number two, a movie queen to play / The scene of bringing all the good things out of me / But for now, love, let's be real / I vever thought I could feel this way / And I've got to say that I just don't get it / I don't know where we went wrong / But the feelin's gone and I just can't get it back / But stories always end / And if you read between the lines / You know that I'm just tryin' to understand / The feelin's that you lack / I never thought I could feel this way / And I've got to say that I just don't get it / I don't know where we went wrong / But the feelin's gone and I just can't get it back

Interlude

(DeLeRue/Shaper)

Time is a like a dream / And now for a time you are mine / Let's hold fast to the dream / That tastes and sparkles like wine / Who knows it's it's real / Or just something we're both dreaming of / What seem like an interlude now / Could be the beginning of love / Loving you is a world that's strange / So much more than my heart can hold / Loving you makes the whole world change / Loving you I could not grow old / No nobody knows when love will end / So till then sweet friend

It's Gonna Change

(B. Glodsboro)

In the silence of the early morning / The sunlight steals our sleep away / And I see you lying close beside me / And I can face another day / And my thoughts go back to one September / I promised I'd have wealth and fame / But we've seen so many cold Decembers / And it looks like things are still the same / But it's gonna change I know someday / I know that soon I'll find a way / And I'll make you proud of me someday / If you would stay for one more night or two / I know my light will come shining through / Yes it's gonna take a little longer / To find what I've been looking for / But with you my faith would grow mush stronger / And I know that soon I'll find the door / I can't blame you of you want to leave me / I know it's been a long hard ride / But if you just wait a little longer / I know we'll see the other side

It's Only Love

(John Lennon/Paul McCartney)

I get high when I see you go by, my oh my / When you sigh my inside just flies, butterflies / Why am I so shy when I'm beside you / It's only love and that is all / Why should I feel the way I do / It's only love and that is all / But it's so hard loving you / Is it right that you and I should fight, every night / Just the sight of you makes nighttime bright, very bright / Haven't I the right to make up girl / It's only love and that is all / Why should I feel the way I do / It's only love and that is all / But it's so hard loving you / Yes it's so hard loving you / Loving you
