SHE'S THE NEXT GIRL

He sees her at work most every day

She works on the floor. What should he say?

She goes for lunch and he takes a break

They see each other and they order cake

She’s the Next Girl on his list

She’s the Next Girl that he’ll kiss

She’s the Next Girl that he’ll miss

She’ll break his heart

He’ll ask her out or so he thinks

He puts it off . What does she drink?

She sits down and he just walks by

Maybe tomorrow . He’ll give it a try

She says “Yes” when he asks her out

She says”Yes” he starts to shout

“I’ve got it made” old love will fade

My broken heart, I’m going to trade

She’ll give him hope . He’ll start something new

Old memories, well they’re all through

She’s like a rose. She’s like a seed

He’ll falling love . That’s what he needs

Sentimental About You

I’m sentimental, sentimental about you

I’m sentimental, a sentimental old fool

I think of your head on my pillow

It’s not a dream just a memory

A whimsical heart in a forgotten world

A torch that you lit when I was young

I’m sentimental, sentimental about you

I’m sentimental, a sentimental old fool

Track #15 from the album “Remember”

MISSING HER

NO LOVE TONIGHT MY LOVE HAS GONE AWAY

NO LOVE IN SIGHT SO LONELY THROUGH THE DAY

I WANDER DOWN THIS BOULEVARD

I MISS THE SOUND OF OUR FEET

THE WAY WE WALK TOGETHER

I HEAR HER HEART BEAT

SHE HOLDS ME IN MY DREAMS

SHE KISSES ME TO SLEEP

THE ECHOES OF HER MEMORIES

THE SILENCE OF THE DEEP

AND I’M MISSING HER , YES I’M MISSING HER [tonight]

PARACHUTES, CHINATOWN, BIG CITY PARKS, LIMOUSINES

A BUS RIDE AT NIGHT, WEARING FADED OLD BLUE JEANS

I WANDER DOWN THIS BOULEVARD

I MISS THE SOUND OF OUR FEET

THE WAY WE WALK TOGETHER

I HEAR HER HEART BEAT

SHE HOLDS ME IN MY DREAMS

SHE KISSES ME TO SLEEP

THE ECHOES OF HER MEMORIES

THE SILENCE OF THE DEEP

AND I’M MISSING HER , I’M MISSING HER [tonight]

I DIDN'T DO IT

THEY SAID I CHEATED A MAN IN SHANGHAI

BUT THAT WAS JUST A LIE

THEY SAID I STOLE SOME MONEY IN HONG KONG

BUT I’VE BEEN FRAMED BY SOME GUY

SO I’M HEADED NORTH TO BEIJING

GET ME A LAWYER ON MY SIDE

I GUESS THERE’S NO MERCY NO JUSTICE

WHEN YOU DON’T HAVE AN ALIBI

BUT GOD KNOWS WHO DID IT , DON’T HE

IT’S ENOUGH TO MAKE YOU WANT TO CRY

MAYBE I SHOULD GET OUT OF CHINA

AND HEAD FOR THE BRITISH SKIES

I’LL HAVE TO SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT

OH GET IT STRAIGHT BEFORE I DIE

GET ON DOWN TO THE BOTTOM OF IT

BEFORE I HAVE TO SAY GOODBYE

SOMEHOW I’LL FIND THE GUY WHO FRAMED ME

BUT LIKE THE FOX HE’S SO SLY

SO I’LL ASK MY LAWYER IN BEIJING

TO CONVINCE THE JURY WHEN I’M TRIED

WELL GOD KNOWS WHO DID IT , NOW DON’T HE

IT’S ENOUGH TO MAKE YOU WANT TO CRY

MAYBE I SHOULD GET OUT OF CHINA

AND HEAD FOR THE BRITISH SKIES

I Can Feel Your Love

WHEN THE SUN IS BURNING ON YOUR HEAD

YOUR SWEATING HOT AND FEELING DEAD

YOU COULD GIVE ME YOUR WARM BED

I COULD FEEL YOUR LOVE

YOU SEE I’VE DECIDED WHAT TO DO

AND I KNOW YOU WOULDN’T HURT ME

YOU HAD ME FIGURE OUT AND I’M FOR YOU

YOU’RE THE LAND AND I’M THE SEA

WHEN THE MORNING SHADES THE SUN IS OUT

YOUR ALL ALONE YOUR MIND SHOUTS

CALL ME TELL ME WHAT IT’S ALL ABOUT

I CAN FEEL YOUR LOVE

LIFE’S GONE CRAZY AND THE WORLD’S A MESS

BUT YOU DREAM THE DREAM AND PERSEVERE

YOUR MINDS MADE UP YOU DON’T HAVE TO GUESS

YOU’RE THE PERFECT LOVE THE PERFECT DEAR

YOU’VE GIVEN UP EVERYTHING FOR LOVE

YOU’RE GIVING ME THE STARS ABOVE

LIKE THE SYMBOL OF THE DOVE

I CAN FEEL YOUR LOVE

Forever Kind of Love

SHE’S ALWAYS THERE WHEN I NEED HER

SHE’S ALWAYS THERE WHEN I’M ALONE

SHE’S ALWAYS THERE WHEN I GET TWISTED

SHE’S MY FOREVER KIND OF LOVE

WHEN DYLAN CALLS AND THE COLD WIND FALLS

SHE’LL HELP HIM IF SHE CAN

THERE’S NO OTHER AND YOU’LL DISCOVER

LOVE WILL NEVER SLIP THROUGH HER HAND

SHE’S ALWAYS THERE WHEN THERE’S DARKNESS

SHE’S ALWAYS THERE WHEN I’M DOWN

SHE’S ALWAYS THERE WHEN LIFE REJECTS ME

SHE’S MY FOREVER KIND OF LOVE

SHE’S ALWAYS THERE WHEN I WANT HER

SHE’S ALWAYS THERE WHEN I’M SO ALONE

SHE’S ALWAYS THERE WHEN I GET TWISTED

SHE’S MY FOREVER KIND OF LOVE

AND WHEN DYLAN CALLS AND THE COLD WIND FALLS

SHE GOING TO HELP HIM IF SHE CAN

AND WHEN LIFE GETS TRAGIC OH SHE’S LIKE MAGIC

LOVE WILL NEVER SLIP THROUGH HER HAND

SHE’S ALWAYS THERE WHEN THERE’S DARKNESS

SHE’S ALWAYS THERE WHEN I’M DOWN

SHE’S ALWAYS THERE WHEN LIFE REJECTS ME

SHE’S MY FOREVER KIND OF LOVE

Echo River

Last time I was in Echo River.

It was warm and the water cool

I sat down and ate strawberries.

Oh, the city’s just for fools

I can’t wait for the weekend to come

This job is getting me down

I’ve been working here day after day

Quitting time and I’m leaving town.

Echo Echo River River

I’m going down to Echo River.

I’m going to borrow Steve’s old truck

I’ll take my sleeping bag with me

Stop thinking about making a buck

I don’t care how far I got to go

I don’t care how much it cost

I’ll drive all day and I’ll drive all night

Turn North on highway 40 I won’t get lost.

Echo Echo River River
