----------------------------------------------------------------------------
When life was so tender
And dreams were kept beside your pillow
#01)
Because I love you
(Yes I love you)
I'll always love you so
#02)
I'm gettin' bugged drivin' up and down the same old strip
I gotta find a new place where the kids are hip
#03)
Got to be good looking 'cause he's so hard to see
#04)
More than the meadow so green and still
More than the mulberries on the hill
More than the buds on the May apple tree
#05)
I hurried through 'cause I knew it was you
When I saw your dog waggin' his tail
Honey, why didn't you let me know by mail
You been gone so long
#06)
The night is long
Forget your foolish pride
Nothing's wrong
Now you're beside me again
#07)
I teased at life
As if it were a foolish game
The way the evening breeze
May tease a candle flame
#08)
The future's not ours to see
#09)
The guilty undertaker sighs
The lonesome organ grinder cries
The silver saxophones say
I should refuse you
#10)
I wonder when bluebirds are mating
Will you come back again?
#11)
You are the one that I need and you say you'll be true
I want to believe you are mine
#12)
Once in a while in my mind I go bummin'
Goin' to nowhere with no worry of time
Runnin' along chasin' after a train
Hummin' a song in the sun and the rain
#13)
We still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse
White lightning's still the biggest thrill of all
#14)
The only sound that you will hear
Is when I whisper in your ear
"I love you forever and ever"
#15)
Well I love you, gal
And I want you
#16)
If you ever
Ah, if you ever need a friend
I'll be yours until the end
#17)
I would say what's on my mind
But the words are hard to find
But I'm gonna try to tell her anyway
#18)
When my love comes tumbling down
#19)
Well, she got him on the sofa
Where he'd gone to take a snooze
And I hope he went to heaven
'Cause he wasn't wearing shoes
#20)
A rapture in blue
With the world far away
And your lips close to mine
#21)
I don't want to walk without you
Walking right by my side
It hurts me to see you talking
To any other guy
#22)
And kneel and say an "Ave" over me
#23)
So if some guy should ask you
If some night you're free
Wave him away with the wave of your arms
#24)
Let, won't you let me hear
Won't you let me hear you whisper
That you love
That you love
You love me, too
#25)
------------
Tie-Breakers
------------
Don't talk about her
She does the best she can
Don't talk about her
Don't talk about her
She just lost her man
#T1)
Always out having fun
(Having so much fun)
With your heart on the run
(Always on the run)
Baby, come to me
(Come, come, come to me)
You and I were meant to be
#T2)
