Stay With Me Awhile
03:12

I felt you near tonight, as I stepped out for a walk
In the right light, I can turn back the clock
These streets are filled with ghosts, hard to crack a smile
I miss you the most, stay with me awhile
Trees, like memories, bend and sway, they echo with your name
You’ve gone away and yet you remain
These streets are filled with ghosts, hard to crack a smile
I miss you the most, stay with me awhile
Miss you the most, stay with me awhile
You bring light even now
Twinkling star
Unforgettable
Though near or far
The water draws me near, like the weeping willow trees
I hold my breath to hear, your voice on the breeze
These streets are filled with ghosts, hard to crack a smile
I miss you the most, stay with me awhile
My love for you runs deep, but this river is so wide
I see the lights shine, from the other side
These streets are filled with ghosts, hard to crack a smile
I miss you the most, stay with me awhile
Miss you the most, stay with me awhile
Miss you the most, stay with me awhile

The Problem
03:22

I don’t know why you did what you did, we both know you were wrong
And if I take you back, we’ll be back here again before long
And I need you to know that it's not that I met someone new
All this time I’ve been trying to change me, the problem was you
I was lost but now I see
All that you took from me
I’m not that fool you’re looking for
Don’t come knocking at my door
I was me when we met, you can bet, I'll be me when you're gone
And in time, I will let, this regret, be just words in a song
Seems that you, had forgot, this whole world, doesn't spin, just for you
C'est fini, au revoir, that's the end, cha-cha-cha, yeah, we're through
I was lost but now I see
All that you took from me
I’m not that fool you’re looking for
Don’t come knocking at my door
I was lost, now I see
All that you took from me
I’m not that fool you’re looking for
Don’t come knocking at my door
I don’t know why you did what you did, we both know you were wrong
And if I take you back, we’ll be back here again before long
And I need you to know that it's not that I met someone new
All this time I’ve been trying to change me, the problem was you
I was lost, now I see
All that you took from me
Just who, do you think, you are
You pushed me way too far
There's no sense in wondering why
You're not worth the tears I cry
I’m not that fool you’re looking for
Don’t come knocking at my door

Nobody But You
04:07

Oh how time flies whenever my eyes land on you, nobody but you
Only you hold the key, to my heart's melody, oh you, nobody but you
Don't know where we're going but with you nowhere is everywhere so I, I really don't care
Can't go wrong, my life's a song, just as long as I'm near to you, nobody but you
Spent all my money, honey, but I've saved all my time just for you, nobody but you
Don’t want my body against nobody’s body but you, nobody but you
Don't know where we're going but with you nowhere is everywhere so I, I really don't care
Can't go wrong, my life's a song, just as long as I'm near to you, nobody but you
Don't know where we're going but with you nowhere is everywhere so I, I really don't care
Can't go wrong, my life's a song, just as long as I'm near to you, nobody but you
And oh how time flies whenever my eyes land on you, nobody but you
And only you hold the key, to my heart's melody, oh you, nobody but you
Can't go wrong, my life's a song, just as long as I'm near to you, nobody but you

One Shoe
03:05

You were fighting a bottle of whiskey
And I was fighting with you
The cab driver nearly lost it
Said “Get out and take that drunk too”
So, I paid him his fee and hopped out to see
you’d sped off as you always do
As the cab turned the corner, I grew forlorn-er
I realized I'd only one shoe
Ever have one of those crazy nights?
All of us sometimes do
But ya ever woke up, down on your luck
cause you’d come home wearing one shoe?
And you only had one shoe
I blame it all on you
Tell ya, that broke my heart more, than your departure
What’s a gal to do?
When you only have one shoe
I blame it all on you
Tell ya that broke my heart more than your departure
What’s a gal to do?
It started off a real sweet night
I’m so glad you let me buy you dinner
Come out from the loo, you’re talking to Sue
Boy, did I pick a winner
Should’a taken my chance, when she asked you to dance,
She was keen, I should've just let her
But some lessons are learned slow
Now I wear boots, you know
They stay on my feet much better
Ever have one of those crazy nights?
All of us sometimes do
But ya ever woke up, down on your luck
cause you’d come home wearing one shoe?
And you only had one shoe
I blame it all on you
Tell ya that broke my heart more than your departure
What’s a gal to do?
When you only have one shoe
I blame it all on you
Tell ya that broke my heart more than your departure
What’s a gal to do?
Ever have one of those crazy nights?
All of us sometimes do
But ya ever woke up down on your luck
‘Cause you’d come home wearing one shoe?
And you only had one shoe
I blame it all on you
Tell ya that broke my heart more than your departure
What’s a gal to do?
When you only have one shoe
I blame it all on you

Let them talk
03:49
|

Let them talk if they want to
Talk don't bother me
I want the whole wide world to know
That I, I still love you so
Let them whisper
For they know not
What exists between you and I
I'm gonna keep on loving you
Until the day I die
They're tryin' to breakup our romance
But they, they don't stand a chance
‘Cus we’ve got the kind of love
That's so strong
And we'll be together from now on
I know that gossip comes from the devil's workshop
But true love will make it stop
I want the whole wide world to know
That I, I still love you so
I'm gonna keep on loving you
Until the day I die
And they're jealous of everything we do
But it's so wonderful
When you love someone
And that someone loves you.

Ain't Got Nobody
02:40
|

There's a sayin' goin' ‘round
And I'm beginning to think it's true
It's awfully hard to love someone
When they don't care about you
Once I had a lovin’ guy
The sweetest thing in this town
Now I'm sad and lonely
He’s gone and turned me down
Now I ain't got nobody, nobody cares for me
That's why I'm so sad and lonely
Won't somebody come and take a chance with me?
I'll sing you sweet love songs honey, all of the time
If you'll only be that loving guy of mine
That’s why I ain't got nobody, nobody cares for me
Now I ain't got nobody, nobody cares for me
That's why I'm so sad and lonely
Won't somebody come and take a chance with me?
I'll sing you sweet love songs honey, all of the time
If you'll only be that loving guy of mine
That’s why I ain't got nobody, nobody cares for me
oh lord, nobody cares for me

Solange
03:14

Si jamais j’me perdais
Dans l’brouillard ben épais
Si jamais j’me noyais
Dans une bouteille sans arrêt
J’veux juste que tu m’dises
Que tu m’aimais
Comme une chanson que j’aime
Qu’y arrête jamais
Quand j’me sauverais dans l’noir
Pas certain qu’on va se r’voir
Quand je viderai mes tiroirs
M’a m’arranger pour boire
J’veux juste que tu m’dises
Que tu m’aimais
Comme une chanson que j’aime
Qu’y arrête jamais
C’t’ histoire la / r’commencera
C’t’ histoire la / nous tuera
Tu trouves pas qu’on est triste à voir
Tu trouve pas qu’on peu pu y croire
Dans les bras de ma Solange
Avec son p’tit coat à franges
Dans ma tête sa m’démange
J’pense a toi sa m’dérange
J’veux juste que tu m’dises
Que tu m’aimais
Comme une chanson que j’aime
Qu’y arrête jamais
J’veux juste que tu m’dises
Que tu m’aimais
Comme une chanson que j’aime
Qu’y arrête jamais
Comme une chanson que j’aime
Qu’y arrête

Hand in Hand
04:17
|

Through the night, I feel loneliness
And in my heart, a great heaviness
You left today and with you, so my love
Heartbreaking news, an image in place of –
your outstretched arms,
I closed my eyes to the world
you sang to me without uttering a word
I’ve held tight but know this must end
I will learn to let go of your hand
Hand in hand, hand in hand
Through the night, I feel loneliness
And in my heart, a great heaviness
You left today and with you, so my love
Heartbreaking news, an image in place of –
Through the night, I feel loneliness
And in my heart, a great heaviness
You left today and with you, so my love
Heartbreaking news, an image in place of –
your outstretched arms,
I closed my eyes to the world
you sang to me without uttering a word
I’ve held tight but know this must end
I will learn to let go of your hand,
Hand in hand, hand in hand
Through the night I feel loneliness
And in my heart, a great heaviness
