It's Good To Be Alive Again
Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

I was destroyed the day I lost you,
I had no reason to go on.
The moment you walked through the door and left me
I thought that all in life was gone.
But then I went out in the sunshine,
The world was waitin' there for me,
I found that I could get along without you,
The pain is gone and now I'm free.

It's good to be alive again,
It's good to be alive again,
It's good to be alive again,
It's good to be alive again.

You tell me that you always loved me,
You didn't mean to treat me bad.
Well it's too late to tell me that you're sorry,
You lost the good thing that you had.
I got myself a taste of livin'
And I have only just begun.
This great big world is filled with lots of people,
I won't be tied to anyone.

It's good to be alive again,
It's good to be alive again,
It's good to be alive again,
It's good to be alive again.

I'll make the most of every moment,
There's nothing gettin' in my way.
It took some time to put my life together,
I'm happy where I am today.
Don't try to tempt me with your sweet talk,
Remember me, I knew you when.
Thank God the lonely days and nights are over,
It's good to be alive again.

It's good to be alive again,
It's good to be alive again,
It's good to be alive again,
It's good to be alive again.
It's good to be alive again,
It's good to be alive again,
It's good to be alive again,
It's good to be alive again.
It's good to be alive again,
It's good to be alive again,
It's good to be alive again,
It's good to be alive again...

Jeannine
Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

Don't know exactly where or when the rumour started
But like a fire it spread and left you broken hearted.
Oh Jeannine, poor Jeannine, you're topic number one,
A target for their fun,
They got you hiding from the sun, but,
There was a time they found your tomboy ways amusing,
But that was then and now the laughter is accusing.
Though it's no secret that you've never loved a man,
They don't think you can,
Come on girl, I understand,
I'll show you the way Jeannine,
Let me light up your day Jeannine,
Before you believe the things that they say, Jeannine.

Come let me shield you from the people who suspect you,
Come let me hold you, let me love you and protect you.
Oh Jeannine, my Jeannine, let your heart run free,
Don't be afraid of me,
Taste how sweet the world can be.
I'll show you the way Jeannine,
Let me show you the way Jeannine,
Before you believe the things that they say, Jeannine.

Oh Jeannine, my Jeannine, let your heart run free,
Don't be afraid of me,
Taste how sweet the world can be.
I'll show you the way Jeannine,
Let me light up your day Jeannine,
Before you believe the things that they say, Jeannine.
I'll show you the way Jeannine,
Let me light up your day Jeannine,
Let me show, let me show you the way Jeannine.

Johnnie Walker, Old Grandad, Jackie Daniels And You
Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

You ain't showin' no devotion
The way you're treatin' me.
You go out for the evenin' paper
And you don't come home 'till three,
Or four,
Stumblin' through the door like a wounded pup, ya can't stand up.
Oh how I dread draggin' you to bed
When you had a few.
Fillin' up them ice baths,
Playin' nursemaid too
To Johnnie Walker, Old Grandad, Jackie Daniels and you.

You've been stealin' all of my money
From the cookie jar.
I can see a trail of pennies
Leadin' to the bar,
And grill,
Where ya hide until ya come home tight at broad daylight.
Well it's a doggone shame ya carry my name,
And my baby too.
While most gals have one man,
You have quite a crew,
It's Johnnie Walker, Old Grandad, Jackie Daniels and you.

You're a one man woman honey
But you've got me up-tight.
I'll tell the judge ya stole my money
And he's gonna set you right
In Jail,
And I won't bring the bail for thirty days
'Till ya change your ways.
If you can't choose between me and booze,
This time we're really through.
I'm not gonna pay that alimony
'Cause I intend to sue
Johnnie Walker, Old Grandad, Jackie Daniels and you.

Kiddio (Go Try And Find A Rainbow)
Neil Sedaka

Catch the wind and ride it all day,
Don't you care if you never go back, keep your head in the breeze
Doin' the things you please.
Kiddio, go try and find a rainbow.

Take your time and think of a rhyme,
If you can, then just sail it on up to the top of the hill,
Or maybe, better still,
Kiddio, go try and find a rainbow.

Then a stranger one day came a'callin',
Tried to show me the way to the light,
Mixing colors of red, green and yellow,
And I've been allright, yes I have,
And I've been allright since that very day.

Things are never bad as they seem,
Wait and see what tomorrow may bring,
It might bring a new light,
The pieces might come up right.
Kiddio, everyone finds his rainbow.
Kiddio, everyone finds his rainbow, his rainbow,
Everyone finds, everyone finds his rainbow.

King Of Clowns
Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

Here I come, the king of clowns,
As I hide behind a smile and paint the town.
Though I cry since you're gone,
You'll never know because the show must go on.

I've been sad, I've been blue
Ever since the day that you found someone new.
I pretend but you can't tell,
With my broken heart I play my part so well.

Step aside, here I come, the king of clowns,
As I hide the lonely teardrops that come down.
I make believe, with a smile,
But the king of clowns is cryin' all the while.
Tra la la la la la lilo, tra la la la la la lilo,
Here comes the king of clowns.
Tra la la la la la lilo, tra la la la la la lilo,
Here comes the king of clowns.

There are tears you'll never see,
No you'll never see my tears and pity me.
Though I'm hurt, still I'm proud,
Always laughin' as I walk among the crowd.

Step aside, here I come, the king of clowns,
As I hide the lonely teardrops that come down.
I make believe, with a smile,
But the king of clowns is cryin' all the while.
Tra la la la la la lilo, tra la la la la la lilo,
Here comes the king of clowns.
Tra la la la la la lilo, tra la la la la la lilo,
Here comes the king of clowns.

Tra la la la la la lilo, tra la la la la la lilo,
Here comes the king of clowns...

Laughter In The Rain
Neil Sedaka / Phil Cody

Strolling along country roads with my baby
It starts to rain, it begins to pour
Without an umbrella we're soaked to the skin
I feel a shiver run up my spine
I feel the warmth of her hand in mine

Ooh, I hear laughter in the rain
Walking hand in hand with the one I love
Ooh, how I love the rainy days
And the happy way I feel inside

After a while we run under a tree
I turn to her and she kisses me
There with the beat of the rain on the leaves
Softly she breathes and I close my eyes
Sharing our love under stormy skies

Ooh, I hear laughter in the rain
Walking hand in hand with the one I love
Ooh, how I love the rainy days
And the happy way I feel inside

I feel the warmth of her hand in mine

Ooh, I hear laughter in the rain
Walking hand in hand with the one I love
Ooh, how I love the rainy days
And the happy way I feel inside

Ooh, I hear laughter in the rain
Walking hand in hand with the one I love
Ooh, how I love the rainy days
And the happy way I feel inside

Let Daddy Know
Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

Baby, there's a tear, fallin' from your eye,
You know when I'm around, you ain't supposed to cry.
When you feel up-tight, Im here to make it right,
Let daddy know, let daddy know.

On a cloudy day, when you're all alone,
I'll only be as far as your telephone.
My number's on the wall, don't be afraid to call,
Let daddy know.

Let me be the one who turns you on to sunshine
If anybody ever brings you down.
When you need some love and understandin'
Count on me, I'll always be around.

If this crazy world should ever get in your way,
I'll turn the earth around, and whip you up a brand new day.
When it comes to you, there's nothin' I can't do,
Let daddy know.

If this crazy world should ever get in your way,
I'll turn the earth around, and whip you up a brand new day.
When it comes to you, there's nothin' I can't do,
Let daddy know, let daddy know,
You gotta let your daddy know.

Let The People Talk
Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield / Miller

People tell you that I'll break your heart
(let the people talk)
Don't you listen when the rumours start
(let the people talk)
Just because I played around in the past,
They say that our love won't last.
Don't you listen to what they're tellin' you,
Just let 'em talk.

No one seems to think a guy can change
(let the people talk)
I fell in love with you, is that so strange?
(let the people talk)
When the people start to put me down,
Don't you hang around.
When the rumours fly baby walk on by,
Just let 'em talk.

Let the people talk,
Let the people talk,
Just let 'em talk.

Maybe baby won't you take my hand
(let the people talk)
Nothin' matters if you understand
(let the people talk)
I'm not the kinda guy I used to be,
You made a change in me.
I'm in love with you, if you love me too,
Just let 'em talk.

Baby baby let the people talk
(let the people talk)
Baby baby let the people talk
(let the people talk)
Baby baby let the people talk...

Letting Go
Neil Sedaka / Phil Cody

It's too easy to cry
So I'm not gonna try
I'm not dying for love any more.
Promises won't keep me
As we never kept them before.
I believed all the lies
Fell in love with your eyes,
Hung up whenever you smiled.
Getting over you
Is truly gonna take me a while.

Why should letting go
Come as such a heartache,
Leave us here in pieces,
Leave us feeling low.
You'd think that letting go
Would help to mend the heartbreak,
You'd think that we can do it
By letting go.

In the night all alone,
Hangin' out on my own,
Having known all along it was true
There's never been a time
I wanted anybody but you.
I've accepted my fate,
Maybe hung on too late,
How I hate the delay of goodbye.
Time to break away,
Damned if I can even say why.

Why should letting go
Come as such a heartache,
Leave us here in pieces,
Leave us feeling low.
You'd think that letting go
Would help to mend the heartbreak,
You'd think that we can do it
By letting go.

Why should letting go
Come as such a heartache,
Leave us here in pieces,
Leave us feeling low.
You'd think that letting go
Would help to mend the heartbreak,
You'd think that we can do it
By letting go.

Letting go, letting go, letting go.

Let's Go Steady Again
Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

Dum dum dum rat oh too
Let's go steady again
Dum dum dum rat oh too
Let's go steady again

Let's go steady again, like we did before
Let's go steady again, and be lovers once more
Wear that ring around your neck like you used to do
Don't you know it's wrong to break up
Come on baby let's kiss and make up

Let's go steady again, like in the past
Let's show all of our friends that our love can last
I don't care of who was wrong
Come back here where you belong
Come on baby, let's go steady again

Monday, we said goodbye
Tuesday, all we did was cry
Wednesday, I almost lost my mind
Thursday, I was feelin' blue
Friday, was the same way too
Never had a day sad as Saturday
Even Sunday was no fun day

Let's go steady again, like we used to do
Say you're ready and then we can start a new
Seven days we didn't speak, it's been a long and lonely week
Come on baby, let's go steady again

Dum dum dum rat oh too, let's go steady again
Dum dum dum rat oh too, let's go steady again...

Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

It's time that someone started tamin' you down
There'll be some changes made
Your rovin' days are through
Hey little devil, I'm gonna make an agel out of you

Hey little devil you got me all in a whirl
You're a cute little devil and I'm gonna make you my girl
You're out to break my heart
But just before you do

They say beware, but I don't care
I love you just the same
You're an old heart breaker and a mischief maker
But I'm wise to your game

Woh woh woh

Little Song
Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

La la la, la la la, this is just a little song.
La la la, la la la, nothin' that'll take too long.

Tweedledum, let me hum a silly little bit of rhyme,
Lend an ear, and you'll hear
Somethin' that'll fill the time.

La la la, la la la, I said it wouldn't take too long,
La la la, la la la, this is just a little song.

Lonely Night (Angel Face)
Neil Sedaka

Lonely night, I cry myself to sleep.
Tell me, what am I gonna do.
'Cause it's always been you to dry the tears,
Always been you to wash away my fears,
Always been you each night and day,
Now what can I say when love slips away.

Lonely night, I'm walkin' the floor.
Tell me, what am I gonna do
Without your precious love, your tender touch,
Hey little girl, miss you so much.
Wish we could turn back the hands of time
To the day when you were mine.

You used to call me angel face,
Used to call me angel face.
You used to help me through the night,
Make me feel alright.
Now all I have is teardrops through a lonely night.
Lonely night.

I promise you I'll change my ways,
I promise you love's here to stay.
Hey little girl depend on me,
I'll be yours for eternity.


You used to call me angel face,
Used to call me angel face.
You used to help me through the night,
Make me feel alright.
Now all I have is teardrops through a lonely night.
Lonely night,
Lonely night.
Such a, such a, such a lonely night.
Lonely night.
Lonely lonely night lonely night lonely night...

Love In The Shadows
Neil Sedaka / Phil Cody

In the shadows you got to know your lover mostly by feel,
You got to put your faith in things you can touch,
If you dare to.
'Cause the shadows can make you crazy with the things they reveal,
They show it all without revealing too much,
Scare the hell outa you.

'Cause me and my love live among the shadows
Where the old playground is an alleyway.
Now me and my love make love among the shadows
When the sun goes down, in a dark hallway.

Love in the shadows where the crowd never goes,
Deep in the shadows where flowers won't grow,
Me and my baby know love in the shadows.

In the shadows, you got to work at love to get it to shine,
You can't believe in everything that you see,
Not this time around.
'Cause the shadows can play a half a million tricks on your mind,
You try your best but you can never break free,
It just kinda drags you down.

'Cause me and my love live among the shadows
Where the old playground is an alleyway.
Now me and my love make love among the shadows,
When the sun goes down...

Love in the shadows where the crowd never goes,
Deep in the shadows where flowers won't grow,
Me and my baby know love in the shadows,
Love in the shadows,
Love in the shadows,
Love in the shadows,
Love in the shadows,
Love in the shadows...

Love Will Keep Us Together
Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

Love, love will keep us together
Think of me babe whenever
Some sweet talking guy comes along singing his song
Don't mess around, you gotta be strong

Just stop, 'cause I really love you
Stop! I'll be thinking of you
Look in my heart and then love
Keeps us together

You, you belong to me now
Ain't gonna set you free now
When those guys start hanging around talking me down
Hear with your heart and you wont hear a sound

Just stop, 'cause I really love you
Stop! I'll be thinking of you
Look in my heart and then love
Keeps us together

Whatever!

Young and beautiful
But someday your looks will be gone
When the others turn you off
Who'll be turnin' you on?

I will, I will, I will, I will
Be there to share for ever

Love will keep us together
Said it before and I'll sing it again
While others pretend
I'll need you now and I'll need you then

Just stop, 'cause I really love you
Stop! I'll be thinking of you
Look in my heart and then love
Keeps us together

Whatever!

I will, I will, I will, I will

Just stop, 'cause I really love you
Stop! I'll be thinking of you
Look in my heart and then love
Keeps us together

Whatever!

I will, I will, I will, I will

My Life's Devotion
Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

My life's devotion is loving you only.
My heart says to you I'll always be true,
You'll never be lonely.
I just adore you, I only live for you.
I'd give all the gold a treasure can hold
To always enfold you.

My life is madness, it's sadness, it burns with desire,
I'm yearning, just burning, my soul is on fire.
Dear I'm your slave and you're just the sire of love.

(words from the album 'Neil Sedaka And Songs - A Solo Concert')

My Son And I
Neil Sedaka

My son and I
We will keep on goin'
For all our time and through our lives.
He's everything a dad could ever wish for,
He brightens up my every day.

He has a dream
And I know he's gonna make it,
He knows that he could always count on me.
We'll laugh and cry and share a tender moment,
This boy of mine, I love him so.

When I see him smile
It fills me up with gladness,
He's sunshine and he's laughter all combined.
He picks me up, he cheers me through the bad times.
A wondrous thing, my son and I.

Is this the little boy I know,
Playing with his Lego long ago,
Watching all his programmes on his TV screen,
It can't be that far back as it might seem.

The first day that he left for school,
I cried as if I was a fool.
He turned into a really grown up guy,
I'll love him 'til the day I die.

My son and I
We have our little difference,
Don't see eye to eye on all the world
But we'll make it through because we love each other
It'll always be just me and you.

But if he goes away
I don't know how I'll make it
But when he comes back the sun will shine again.
I'm a lucky man to have him here beside me,
It'll always be my son and I,
It'll always be my son and I,
Always be my son and I.

Flame
Neil Sedaka / Phil Cody

Spread it around, there's a fire in town
And you'd better come quick 'fore it all burns down.

She's real hot stuff and people tend to leave her alone,
Her name is Flame and she burns to the marrow in your bones.
There's a big bonfire in my heart and I can't put it out,
Listen here mister I just wanna warn you about
My girl Flame.

She's a five alarm lover and the darlin' of the fire patrol.
She gets a good clean start but it's hard to keep her under control.
She kindles a good deal of whispers from bedrooms to bars,
I'll love her for the rest of my life though I carry the scars
Of my girl Flame.

Spread it around, there's a fire in town
And you'd better come quick 'fore it all burns down.
She kindles a good deal of whispers from bedrooms to bars,
I'll love her for the rest of my life though I carry the scars
Of my girl Flame.

Spread it around, there's a fire in town
And you'd better come quick 'fore it all burns down.
Spread it around, there's a fire in town
And you'd better come quick 'fore it all burns down.
Spread it around, there's a fire in town
And you'd better come quick 'fore it all burns down.

Fly Don't Fly On Me
Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

Fly don't fly on me,
Fly around somebody new.
Fly don't fly on me,
Your buzzin' and your hummin' is makin' me blue.
I can't sleep at night,
I toss and turn with all of my might,
Knowin' you are there
You'll take my dreams and turn my dreams into a nightmare.

When I go to sleep
I don't count the sheep,
I just think about my sweetie-pie.
Then you fly on me,
Oh what misery,
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh you mess me up and wake me up so I wanna cry.

Fly don't fly on me
Fly so I can dream all night.
Fly don't fly on me
And when you go away I'll see her holdin' me tight,
'Cause in my dreams I know she's gonna treat me so right.

When I go to sleep

Fly don't fly on me, shoo
Fly don't fly on me, shoo...

For The Good Of The Cause
Neil Sedaka / Phil Cody

Bodies like yours should be used for something
More than just waving around like a flag
Don't get me wrong, I don't mean to tell you
I want you for only your body 'cause baby it just ain't my bag
What's living inside that beautiful closet
Won't you let it come out for a while?
We got our flaws, all need aplause
Come and get it for the good of the cause...

People will lead you into believin'
That I don't love ya but you know it ain't true
Didn't I take you, when you was no-one?
Put you up very comfortably honey on Fifth Avenue
I only wanted the best for us baby
So give it the best that you can
We got our flaws, all need aplause
Come and give it for the good of the cause...

Come and give it for the good of the cause...
Come and give it for the good of the cause...

Some guys I know would sell their own mother
Just for a glass of wine
We got our flaws, all need aplause
Come and get it for the good of the cause, yeah!
Come and get it for the good of the cause
Come and get it for the good of the cause...

God Bless Joanna
Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

When the world is all wrong and I can't get along
Deep inside me a voice says "You've gotta be strong"
Just the sound of her words, like the words of a song that comfort me.
God bless Joanna.

When I'm feelin' up-tight and I can't sleep at night,
I don't know how she knows but she turns on the light
And I tell her what's wrong and she makes it alright so tenderly.
God bless Joanna.

Without Joanna life would be no easy thing.
She melts the winter when my heart's in need of spring.
Just the warmth of her smile and the light in her eyes makes the sun shine.
How I love her, how I love her.

If my time here on earth was suddenly through
And I stood lookin' back on the world that I knew
And somebody asked "What did life mean to you?"
I'd have to say
"God bless Joanna".

Just the warmth of her smile and the light in her eyes makes the sun shine.
How I love her, how I love her.

If my time here on earth was suddenly through
And I stood lookin' back on the world that I knew
And somebody asked "What did life mean to you?"
I'd have to say
"God bless Joanna, God bless Joanna".

Going Nowhere
Neil Sedaka / Phil Cody

Considering
So many folks, dissatisfied with everything,
Who need someone to understand they're lonely, they're lonely
And they're not alone.

And everywhere
They shrug their shoulders, tell themselves that they don't care.
And all the while they make believe they're happy, oh they're happy
But not really.

And they're asked to hold the world together,
Make it happen, give it children
Who in turn are turning on to going nowhere.
And all the strength they'd ever need to help them
Has been wasted, remains hidden
In the confusion of going nowhere.

And who am I
To criticize the world that I have grown up in.
Most of you would tell me that I'm crazy, yes I'm crazy,
I can't help it.

I understand
That where you are is where you've been so many years
And things that tend to change you, tend to hurt you, yes they hurt you
Very deeply.

And still you try to hold the world together,
Make it happen, give it children
Who in turn are turning on to goin' nowhere.
And all the strength they'd ever need to help them
Has been wasted, remains hidden
In the confusion of going nowhere,
Goin' nowhere,
Goin', goin', goin' nowhere,
Goin' nowhere.

Good Time Man
Neil Sedaka

I'll show you the stars in heaven,
We'll look at the moon above.
Though I'm a silly dreamer, you better stick with me-
The best things in life are free,
And I'm gonna be your good time man
I'll be your good time man.

No diamonds from Cartier,
No shopping spree every day.
I'll be your special lover, I know you'll understand
I'm doin' the best I can
And you'll be the one in wonderland
I'll be your good time man.

Lee, I love you so,
So much you'll never, never know,
I have a special master plan,
I'll be your good time man.
No pad on Fifth Avenue,
No carriage ride just for two,
No table at Twenty One,
We're gonna have ourselves some fun.

No presents from Tiffany,
Oh baby that's not for me.
No Rainbow Room at night, we'll just do it right,
Doin' it naturally -
And I do it good, you know I can,
I'll be your good time man.

Lee, I love you so,
So much you'll never, never, never know,
I have a special master plan,
I'll be your good time man.
No fancy things from Chanel,
I think that you just look swell.
You are my special girl
I'm gonna take you round the world.

A circle line round New York,
Through Central Park we will walk
We'll hang out at the Boat House, take a paddle ride,
We'll do it up in style.
And I'm gonna make you smile, I can,
I'll be your good time man.
No Phantom of the Opera, not for me,
I like Coney Island by the sea,
French fries at Nathan's, not Grenouille,
You're gonna see the real me.
I'll be your good time man,
I'll be your good time man,
I'll be your good time man.

Good Times, Good Music, Good Friends
Neil Sedaka / Phil Cody

Gonna sing a song,
Gonna be a love song,
Sing about the good good feelin' you brought along.
You put my mind at rest,
You made me feel like I've been blessed
With good times, good music and good good friends.

When I was feelin' down,
When I was feelin' low down,
You turned me on to good good music, you turned me right around.
You took me to your breast,
Held me up with your sweet caress
And good times, good music and good good friends.

I remember, when you found me, I was hungry and alone.
First you fed me, then you loved me,
You made me feel at home.
I wanna sing a song,
Got to be a love song,
Sing about the good good feelin' you brought along.
Gonna scream and shout,
How did I ever do without
Good times, good music and good good friends.

Wanna scream and shout,
How did I ever do without
Good times, good music and good good friends.
Yes, good times, good music and good good friends,
Woah yeah!

Good Times, Good Music, Good Friends
Neil Sedaka / Phil Cody

Gonna sing a song,
Gonna be a love song,
Sing about the good good feelin' you brought along.
You put my mind at rest,
You made me feel like I've been blessed
With good times, good music and good good friends.

When I was feelin' down,
When I was feelin' low down,
You turned me on to good good music, you turned me right around.
You took me to your breast,
Held me up with your sweet caress
And good times, good music and good good friends.

I remember, when you found me, I was hungry and alone.
First you fed me, then you loved me,
You made me feel at home.
I wanna sing a song,
Got to be a love song,
Sing about the good good feelin' you brought along.
Gonna scream and shout,
How did I ever do without
Good times, good music and good good friends.

Wanna scream and shout,
How did I ever do without
Good times, good music and good good friends.
Yes, good times, good music and good good friends,
Woah yeah!

Happy birthday sweet sixteen
Tra la la la la la la la la
Happy birthday sweet sixteen

Tonight's the night I've waited for
Because you're not a baby anymore
You've turned into the prettiest girl I've ever seen
Happy birthday sweet sixteen
What happened to that funny face
My little tomboy now wears satins and lace
I can't believe my eyes you're just a teenage dream
Happy birthday sweet sixteen

When you were only six
I was your big brother
Then when you were ten
We didn't like each other

When you were thirteen
You were the funny Valentine
But since you've grown up
Your future is sewn up
From now on you're gonna be mine so

If I should smile with sweet surprise
It's just that you've grown up before my very eyes
You've turned into the prettiest girl I've ever seen
Happy birthday sweet sixteen

If I should smile with sweet surprise
It's just that you've grown up before my very eyes
You've turned into the prettiest girl I've ever seen
Happy birthday sweet sixteen

Here We Are Falling In Love Again
Neil Sedaka / Phil Cody

In love so many fall,
But rarely do we rise in love.
We sing the saddest song
Lamenting to ourselves how bad we feel when love goes wrong.
I know, I've been in love
So many, many times before
And swore to all my friends that I would never, ever fall in love again.

And here we are fallin' in love again,
Who'd ever believe we could.
After all the many heavy falls
Why should it feel so good?
Here we are fallin' in love again,
I still can't believe it's true.
Here we are fallin' in love
And there's nothin' we can do.

In dreams I often see
A never ending kind of love
That glides on golden wings
Above our every day affairs and ordinary things.
In love so many fall
From dizzy heights of fantasy
To find their love in flames
So very sure that it was nothin' more than just a game.

And here we are fallin' in love again,
Who'd ever believe we could.
After all the many heavy falls
Why should it feel so good?
Here we are fallin' in love again,
I still can't believe it's true.
Here we are fallin' in love
And there's nothin' we can do.

Here we are fallin' in love again,
Who'd ever believe we could.
After all the many heavy falls
Why should it feel so good?
Here we are fallin' in love again,
I still can't believe it's true.
Here we are fallin' in love
And there's nothin' we can do.

Hey Mister Sunshine
Dara Sedaka

There hasn't been a face, all around the place like yours babe,
Oh no there hasn't.
And I know one thing for sure, you'll be the one that I adore
For always, for always.

Hey mister sunshine, bring me back again
To the happy happy times that I've been missin'.
Hey mister sunshine, bring me back again
To the happy happy times that I've been missin'.

When I was feelin' blue, and it depended all on you,
You helped me, mm you helped me.
But now you're not around, and I'm feelin' oh so down
Without ya, you know I need ya.

Hey mister sunshine, bring me back again
To the happy happy times that I've been missin'.
and hey mister sunshine, bring me back again
To the happy happy times that I've been missin'.

You helped me, ohoh you helped me.
I need ya, you know I need ya.

Hey mister sunshine, bring me back again
To the happy happy times that I've been missin'.
and hey mister sunshine, bring me back again
To the happy happy times that I've been missin',
To the happy happy times that I've been missin'.

Go Ape
Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

The moon is bright above
Oh, what a night for love
And as I hold you near
I whisper in your ear

I go ape everytime I see you smile
I'm a ding-dong gorila and I carry on cave man style
I'm gonna bop you on the head
And love you all the while

Well, I'm a monkey's uncle
Who's a cousin to a chimpazee
Like I was reelin and rockin
And swingin from a coco-nut tree

Oh, honey can't you see
You bring out the monkey business in me

Orangotango ring-ting-tong
I'm related to old King Kong
Honey won't you say you're mine
With no hunky dunky monkey shine

When you hold my hand
I'm a pre-historic man
I go ape!

Like a barrel of monkeys
On an aba-da-ba honey moon
I go squealin and screechin and howlin
Like a big baboon

Well, baby I'll explode
If you don't come and kiss me soon

Yeah! Ooh!

Ohh... Honey you know that I'm gonna be true to you
I'll keep you in bananas and bring you coco-nuts too
And we'll settle down
In the nearest county zoo

Orangotango ring-ting-tong
I'm related to old King Kong
Honey won't you say you're mine
With no hunky dunky monkey shine

When you hold my hand
I'm a pre-historic man
I go ape!


Let You Walk Away
Neil Sedaka / Phil Cody

I believe that nothin' lasts for ever,
Promises won't help us stay together,
Life for us was never hearts and flowers my friend.
It's sad to think we couldn't solve our problems,
Maybe it's because we tried so seldom.
So much will change today,
That I can only hope and pray,
As I watch you leave the room, that I'll see you very soon,
And it's all that I can do to keep from runnin' after you,
And though I wanted to,
I let you walk away.

It's just a simple case of heartbreak,
My hands begin to tremble, and my knees shake.
Somewhere along the line I hope we can make amends.
I believe that nothin' lasts for ever,
Promises won't help us stay together.
You may come home one day,
'Till then I only hope and pray,
As I watch you leave the room,
That I'll see you very soon,
And it's all that I can do to keep from runnin' after you,
Though I wanted to,
I let you walk away.

And as I watch you leave the room,
I hope I'll see you very soon,
And it's all that I can do to keep from runnin' after you,
And though I wanted to,
I let you walk away,
Let you walk away,
Let you walk away,
I let you walk away.

Waited Too Long
Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

I waited too long, and now we're apart.
I never told you what I feel in my heart.
Somebody new has come along
I was a fool for waiting too long.
My life without you won't be the same,
I should have never played that waiting game.
I'm so alone now that you're gone,
I was a fool for waiting too long.

I wasn't smart, I wasn't wise,
And now I'm by myself with tears in my eyes.

I made my life a life of regret,
I should have never played hard to get.
And now I know, I was so wrong,
I was a fool for waiting too long.
I was a fool for waiting too long,
Too long.

Hope He Breaks Your Heart
Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield / Miller

Since you found someone new,
Can't get used to losin' you.
If I can't have you to myself,
I don't want you happy with somebody else.

I hope he breaks your heart and he makes you cry,
'Til you're sorry that we said goodbye.
Then you'll come runnin' back,
Come runnin' on back to me.

Can't you see I need your love,
It's not revenge I'm thinkin' of.
Though I know it sounds unfair,
I'll only be happy when he does'nt care.

I hope he breaks your heart and he makes you cry,
'Til you're sorry that we said goodbye.
Then you'll come runnin' back,
Come runnin' on back to me
And there I'll be,
Waitin' for you at the door.
I can't wait to see
The day he doesn't want your lovin' any more.

When his love disappears,
I'll be there to dry your tears.
I only want you back again,
So over and over I'll say it 'til then,
I hope he breaks your heart and he makes you cry,
'Til you're sorry that we said goodbye.
Then you'll come runnin' back,
Come runnin' on back to me.

I hope he breaks your heart and he makes you cry,
'Til you're sorry that we said goodbye.
Then you'll come runnin' back,
Come runnin' on back to me.

'Til you're sorry,
I hope he breaks your heart,
So you'll come back to me...

'm A Song (Sing Me)
Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

I got music I will share, I got music, doesn't anyone care?

I'm a song and I've waited so long
For someone to come and sing me.
I got a rhyme that I've had for some time
But nobody wants to sing me.

Let me show the world that I'm not through,
Let me touch your heart the way I used to do.
Sing me, sing me, I got a song to be sung,
Sing me, sing me, roll me around on your tongue.
I got sunshine, I got a message to shout,
Sing me, sing me, won't someone please let me out.

Could I make you smile if I came back in style,
Tell me, would you wanna sing me?
Don't say I'm gone, never more to live on,
Somebody's got to sing me.


Let me fill the air with my old songs.
If I let you down, tell me, where did I go wrong.
Sing me, sing me, I got a song to be sung,
Sing me, sing me, roll me around on your tongue.
I said, I got sunshine, I got a message to shout,
Sing me, sing me, won't someone please let me out.

I got music I will share, I got music, doesn't anyone care?

Is Anybody Gonna Miss You
Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

Once I knew a mean old man, meaner than mean could be,
Kickin' dogs and little children was his cup o'tea.
Came the day that he died, no one prayed for his soul,
Now he's fuel for the devil's fire, burnin' like a piece o'coal.

Is anybody gonna miss you,
Is anybody gonna cry?
Is anybody gonna say he was a nice fella, too bad he had to die.
Who's gonna be your salvation
When it's time to go,
Is anybody gonna pray you up to heaven, or wish you down below?
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh yeah.

There are those who may say, when you're gone you're gone,
And on the other hand, there are those who say that your soul lives on.
I'm not sure, and you're not sure, where the road may lead,
But if there's a light at the end of that tunnel
Get all the help you'll need.

Is anybody gonna miss you,
Is anybody gonna cry?
Is anybody gonna say he was a nice fella, too bad he had to die.
Who's gonna be your salvation
When it's time to go,
Is anybody gonna pray you up to heaven, or wish you down below?
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh yeah.

Every hand that you shake
Is like a savin's bond,
And every smile is a down payment for a ticket to the great beyond.
There's no man on this earth who couldn't use an extra friend,
So tell me what's wrong with a little insurance
When you reach the end.

Is anybody gonna miss you,
Is anybody gonna cry?
Is anybody gonna say he was a nice fella, too bad he had to die.
Who's gonna be your salvation
When it's time to go,
Is anybody gonna pray you up to heaven, or wish you down below?

Is anybody gonna miss you,
Is anybody gonna cry?
Is anybody gonna say he was a nice fella, too bad he had to die.
Who's gonna be your salvation
When it's time to go...

Fallin'

Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

I got to feelin' I'm a'fallin'
Like a star up in the blue,
Like I was fallin' off Niagara
In a paddle-boat canoe.
Mmm, I got to feelin' I'm a'fallin'
And it's all because of you.

Like I was walkin' on a tightrope,
Swingin' in the breeze,
And though I try to keep my balance
Yeah I weaken in the knees.
I got to feelin' I'm a'fallin'
Lover, help me please.

Like a leaf falls from a branch,
Like a rock-slide avalanche,
Like the rain on a stormy day,
I never thought I'd fall this way.

I thought that love could never touch me,
Yeah I was ridin' high
And then my ivory tower toppled
And I tumbled from the sky.
Mm, I got to feelin' I'm a'fallin'
You're the reason why.

Like Goliath when he met his foe,
Just like the walls of Jericho,
Like Delilah's home in town
When Samson tore it down.

I thought that love could never touch me,
Yeah I was ridin' high
And then my ivory tower toppled
And I tumbled from the sky.
Mm, I got to feelin' I'm a'fallin'
And you're the reason why,
Oh you're the reason why,
Lover you're the reason why,
Lover, lover you're the reason why...

Express Yourself

Neil Sedaka/Phil Cody

Have you cried, and had more than your share of lonely times
When your mind got so lost and confused that you tried to hide it away
And you woke up one day and finally found
That all your worldly troubles could never hold you down.

Don't be afraid, express yourself,
Speak up and say what's on your mind.
Come on my love and you will find
You're part of the world, express yourself.
Baby, baby don't worry if you're right or if you're wrong,
You know that it's fun just having you along.

Have you heard the freedom song in a mornin' sky
Did you try to capture it all, could you find the words that could say
What you feel when you're feelin' so good,
When all your worldly troubles begin to fade away.

Don't be afraid, express yourself,
Speak up and say what's on your mind.
Come on my love and you will find
You're part of the world, express yourself.
Baby, baby don't worry if you're right or if you're wrong,
It's a good thing, express yourself,
Such a good thing, express yourself.
Express yourself, la la la la la la la la la la, ooh

Baby, baby don't worry if you're right or if you're wrong,
It's a good thing, such a good thing,
Express yourself, la la la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la la...

Endlessly

Neil Sedaka

Endlessly
We're going on together,
You always brought the sunshine
Changed my weather.
Look and see
Look how you turned the sad times,
Bringing me all those happy days
And glad times.
So tenderly, you take me to your heart.
I ask myself what will I do
While we're apart.
Silently
I'll say a secret prayer now,
That all of the love we captured
We will share now, together, endlessly.

I tell myself
That things are gonna turn out fine,
'Cause the moment you come back home
Our days are gonna shine,
Yeah they're gonna shine.
So come on home
I'll say a secret prayer now,
That all of the love we captured
We will share now, together, endlessly,
Endlessly, endlessly, endlessly.

Don't Let It Mess Your Mind

Neil Sedaka / Phil Cody

Once upon a lonely time, though not so long ago,
You used to be a super-star, you used to steal the show.
But now you must be satisfied with singin' on the street
And watch the world go passin' by, that once was at your feet.

Baby don't let it mess your mind, no,
Sadness ain't a feelin' that becomes you.
Baby don't let it mess your mind, no,
Remember life will always love you.

In and out of circles all the time we seem to waste,
to make our plans and find that all our plans have been erased.
We've had a little money and we made a little time,
And soon we'll grow forgetful of all we've left behind.

Baby don't let it mess your mind, no,
Sadness ain't a feelin' that becomes you.
Baby don't let it mess your mind, no no no no,
Remember life will always love you.

Baby don't let it mess your mind, no,
Sadness ain't a feelin' that becomes you.
Baby don't let it mess your mind, oh no no no no no no,
Remember life will always love you.

Do It Like You Done It When You Meant It

Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

Tell me baby what's come over you
You never try to satisfy me like you used to do.
I don't seem to reach you any more
I wanna know, where did the feelin' go.
When we kiss your mind is somewhere else,
I say that I love ya and I feel I'm talkin' to myself.
I'm on fire but you don't feed the flame,
You're goin' through the motions, nothin' is the same.

Do it like you done it when you meant it,
Baby bring it back to where it used to be.
Somethin' sweet and beautiful is dyin'
Somethin' that was once a part of you and me.
We used to get it all together,
We were really happy then,
Do it like you done it when you meant it,
Gotta get it back again.

Day by day we're driftin' far apart,
I got to find a way to climb the wall around your heart.
Every time I take you in my arms
You're cold as ice, you know that just ain't nice.
But I'll stay no matter what you do,
'Cause all in all I know that I'm really still in love with you,
Even though it hurts the way it does,
I can still remember how wonderful it was.

Do it like you done it when you meant it,
Baby bring it back to where it used to be.
Somethin' sweet and beautiful is dyin'
Somethin' that was once a part of you and me.
We used to get it all together,
We were really happy then,
Do it like you done it when you meant it,
Gotta get it back again.

Do it like you done it when you meant it,
Baby bring it back to where it used to be.
Somethin' sweet and beautiful is dyin'
Somethin' that was once a part of you and me.
We used to get it all together,
We were really happy then,
Do it like you done it when you meant it,
Gotta get it back again.

Gotta get it back again,
Gotta get it back again,
Gotta get it back again,
Gotta get it back again.

Do it like you done it when you meant it,
Baby bring it back to where it used to be.

Do it like you done it when you meant it,
Baby bring it back to where it used to be.

Do it like you done it when you meant it,
Baby bring it back to where it used to be.

Do it like you done it when you meant it,
Baby bring it back to where it used to be.

Crossroads

Neil Sedaka/Phil Cody

Change, I guess you're bound to have your way with me.
Time, no time to think about what used to be.
Just the never ending motion of a clock upon the wall,
A deep uneasy feeling of the axe about to fall.
Say my God I'm gettin' older,
Waitin' at the crossroads of my life.

Say, does anybody know the way to go?
God, help me to know what is and is not so.
I feel so lonely sometimes, can't help but be afraid,
Doubt and indecision get in all the plans I made.
Will it be this way for ever,
Waitin' at the crossroads of my life.

Duh duh duh duh duh duh, duh duh duh, the crossroads.
Duh duh duh duh duh duh, duh duh duh, the crossroads.
Duh duh duh duh duh duh, duh duh duh, the crossroads.
Duh duh duh duh duh duh, duh duh duh, the crossroads.

Well, no tellin' where it is I go from here.
I'm so very tired and my thoughts aren't clear.
My dear God if you're in heaven, won't you write and let me know,
I've come so very far, is it very far to go?
Have pity on this traveller
Waitin' at the crossroads of my life.

Oh,
Duh duh duh duh duh duh, duh duh duh, the crossroads.
Duh duh duh duh duh duh, duh duh duh, the crossroads.
Duh duh duh duh duh duh, duh duh duh, the crossroads.
Duh duh duh duh duh duh, duh duh duh, the crossroads...

City Boy

Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

Country livin’ really gets me down
So I’m headin’ for the lights of town
Gonna kiss the country life goodbye
I got myself a brand new high

Funky music where the lights are bright
Tell the ladies I’ll be there tonight
It’s a paradise of push and shove
I gotta get back to the streets I love

Don’t try to hide it
It’s been decided
Down in my soul
I’m a city boy, city boy
I tried to fake it
I couldn’t make it
Don’t ya just know
I’m a city boy, city boy
Ooh I got to satisfy it
Take me up town and let me boogie all night long
Ooh I hate the peace and quiet
I wanna yell I wanna shout
I wanna dance ‘til I burn myself out
I gotta be me, I gotta free me
Welcome me home I’m a city boy, city boy
And now I know it, well don’t I show it
Mama take a look at your city boy, city boy
Bring it on home, bring it on home to me
Bring it on home, baby bring it on home

It’s the only place I’ve ever been
Where they never pull the sidewalks in
Life’s a party and you can’t go wrong
‘Cause Saturday night lasts a whole week long

I gotta be me, I gotta free me
Welcome me home I’m a city boy, city boy
And now I know it, well don’t I show it
Mama take a look at your city boy, city boy

Circulate

Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

If you're feelin' low down 'cause your baby left town,
Then let me set you straight,
If your chick's flown the coop, knock the blues for a loop,
Get out and circulate.

Go on out and have fun, put the blues on the run,
You'll find that livin's great.
Just pretend you're a king, bounce the world on its string,
Get out and circulate.

There are plenty of fish in the deep blue sea shoppin' around for a mate.
Hurry on up, waste no time,
Come on in, the water's fine.

It's a star-spangled world when your flags are unfurled,
Don't underestimate
This advice that I give, it means wake up and live,
Get out and circulate.

There are plenty of pebbles upon the beach, go out and gather a few.
You can be the cat's meaow,
Start your rock collection now.

It's a star-spangled world when your flags are unfurled,
Don't underestimate
This advice that I give, it means wake up and live,
Get out and circulate.

It's a world full of chicks,
So get out and mix,
I said that life's worth the livin' so get your kicks,
Get out and circulate.

Caribbean Rainbow

Neil Sedaka / Phil Cody

Sailin', glidin' on the water,
A sailor's life is a life that's free,
So easy, sail Caribbean Rainbow,
Ain't hung up on no one, no one's hung on me.
I call her Caribbean Rainbow,
She's always been my lover.
Whichever way the wind blows
That's where she's takin' me, takin' me.

I go sailin', I go glidin' on the water,
A sailor's life is a life that's free,
So easy, sail Caribbean Rainbow,
Ain't hung up on no one, no one's hung on me.
Her sails are all silk and sing in
Harmony with the weather.
She keeps my head together
Way out across the sea, 'cross the sea.

I go sailin', I go glidin' on the water,
A sailor's life is a life that's free,
So easy, sail Caribbean Rainbow,
Ain't hung up on no one, no one's hung on me.

Sail Caribbean Rainbow,
Ain't hung up on no one, no one's hung on me.

Brighton

Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

Walking alone, along the board,
Walking Brighton
The Sun is high and so am I
I feel enlightened

Mother nature's taking care of me
Rocks me gently, naturally
Seems like the see was put there
Just for me

Running upon the beaches of my childhood
I should have stayed forever, if only I could
Coney Island on a Sunday night
Rollercoaster rides and neon lights

Me and my Brighton, baby, used to do alright

La la la..

Comes a time when eventualy
I'll have to leave here, permanently
Now that old Brighton has become
A part of me

La la la...

Comes a time when eventualy
I'll have to leave here, permanently
Now that old Brighton has become
A part of me

Now that old Brighton has become
A part of me

Blue Boy

Grossman / Hunter

I was so happy
When you were mine
You said you loved me
It felt so fine

But now it hurts me
You went away
What can I do?
What can I say?

Hey now! Everybody calls me blue boy
Hey now! Since you told me we were through! Oh-Ooh!
Hey now! Now I know you're with a new boy
I'm such a blue boy, cause I lost you

I guess I'm foolin'
I'll never learn
But I'm still hopin'
That you'll return

Until our love
Is like it used to be
I'll just pretend
You're here with me

Hey now! Everybody calls me blue boy
Hey now! Since you told me we were through! Oh-Ooh!
Hey now! Now I know you're with a new boy
I'm such a blue boy, cause I lost you

Hey now! Everybody calls me blue boy
Hey now! Everybody calls me blue boy
Hey now! Everybody calls me blue boy...

Blinded By Your Love

Neil Sedaka / Phil Cody

They say you're no good for me
That you'll tear me all apart,
Bad and beautiful ecstasy,
And I'd better watch my heart.
Like a magnet, you pull me in,
Addicted to your love, I'm in a spin.
No matter how I try, I just can't get by without you,
What can I do,
You're no good, you're no good, but I'm blinded by your love.
Seems that I need you,
You're a habit that's too hard to break.
Flowin' inside me,
Now we fit so well, like a hand in a glove.
Baby can't you see that I can't get free
You're no good, you're no good, but I'm blinded by your love.

When I look at those almond eyes
You put me in a spell,
The jasmine goes floating by,
Know that fragrance oh so well.
I'm on fire, I swear above, you're a liar, you cheated at love.
How can you desert me, there's only one thing to do,
Tell you we're through.
You're no good, you're no good, but I'm blinded by your love.
Seems that I need you,
You're a habit that's too hard to break.
Flowin' inside me,
Now we fit so well, like a hand in a glove.
Baby can't you see that I can't get free
You're no good, you're no good, but I'm blinded by your love.

When I set my eyes on you
I had to make you mine.
You put me in misery
I'm drownin' in my wine.
Intoxicated, I'm hypnotized,
Caught up in your spell and your almond eyes.
You made a fool of me,
Now I must get free from your hold,
You're evil and cold.
You're no good, you're no good, but I'm blinded by your love.
Seems that I need ya,
You're a habit that's too hard to break.
Flowin' inside me,
We fit so well, like a hand in a glove.
Baby can't you see that I can't get free
You're no good, no good.

Now you made a fool of me,
Baby can't you see,
I'm addicted to your love,
Like a hand in a glove,
No matter what you do
I can't stop lovin' you.
I'm blinded, I'm blinded,
Ooh ra do day...

Betty Grable

Betty Grable

Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

When I used to be a little kid
I used to go
Every Saturday afternoon
To the picture show

Close up to the screen
My life was so serene
I lived through every scene
With my movie queen

Betty Grable

Three hundred howlin' kids were always pack the house
But they just came for Donald Duck
And Mickey Mouse
But there would be a world of fantasy
Wrapped in the melody
She sang and danced for me

Betty Grable

Lots and lots of pine up shots
I had them all
And there they were pasted up
Upon the wall

When mama said
That it was time for bed
I'd eat some jam and bread
And watched your overhead

Betty Grable

Just the other night I saw her on
Some late, late show
And it occurred to me I'm someone that
She'll never know

So I wrote this little songI
For the lady that I've loved so long

Betty Grable

Better Days Are Coming

Neil Sedaka

One, two, three, four.

Movin' movin' down the line
Comes the train of sorrow,
Crossin' on your heart and mine
Where it stops awhile.
You can buy your ticket now
For a sad tomorrow,
It's a long way down the line
'Til you find your way.

Hold on and we can make it together,
Sunshine is gonna clear up the weather,
Better days are comin', better days are comin'.

As we drift from day to day
Someone's there to watch us.
You can ease your tired soul
If you raise your head.
Ridin' over rocky ground
Makes you kinda wonder
If you're gonna make it last through another day.

Hold on and we can make it together,
Sunshine is gonna clear up the weather,
Better days are comin', better days are comin'.

Time for a celebration,
There'll be a new tomorrow,
Time for a jubilation,
Jump off the train of sorrow.
There'll be a brighter mornin'
If you can tell this story,
Ride on the train of glory, not on the train of sorrow.
No no no no, no no no no no no no,
No no no no no, no no no no no no no no.

Hold on and we can make it together,
Sunshine is gonna clear up the weather,
Better days are comin', better days are comin',

Jump off the train of sorrow.
There'll be a brighter mornin'
If you can tell this story,
Ride on the train of glory, not on the train of sorrow.
No no no no, no no no no no no no,
No no no no no, no no no no no no no no...

Bess You Is My Woman Now

George Gershwin

Bess, you is my woman now,
You is, you is!
An' you mus' laugh an' sing an' dance
For two instead of one.
Want no wrinkle on yo' brow,
Nohow!
Because the sorrow of the past is all done done.
Oh, Bess, My Bess!
The real happiness has just begun.

Bess, you is my woman now,
You is, you is!
An' I ain' never goin' nowhere 'less you share the fun
There's no wrinkle on my brow,
Nohow!
But I ain' goin', with you I'm stayin'!

Bess, you is my woman now,
I'm yours forever more.

There's no wrinkle on my brow,
Nohow!
But I ain' goin'! You hear me sayin',
If you ain' goin', with you I'm stayin'!

Bess, you is my woman now,
I'm yours forever.
Mornin' time an' evenin' time an'
Summer time an' winter time.

Mornin' time an' evenin' time an'
Summer time to winter time.
Bess...

Beautiful You

Neil Sedaka

If you got an answer
Girl, I could really use it
Ship on my shoulder
You know I could stay, to lose it

Don't let us waste no time, no!
A good thing is hard to find, oh!
And you know exactly
What's on my mind

Ooh la la! It's such a turn-me-on lady
Ooh la la! It's such a beautiful you
Ma ma ma ma! It's such a funky young lady
Ooh la la! It's such a beautiful you

Nobody warned me
That someone so young, so sweetly
Can do how you do me
More than I could be done so deeply

You got what you got and you know it
I can tell by the way you show it
This is your chance
Come on! Let's not blow it

Ooh la la! It's such a turn-me-on lady
Ooh la la! It's such a beautiful you
Ma ma ma ma! It's such a funky young lady
Ooh la la! It's such a beautiful you

You got what you got and you know it
I can tell by the way you show it, Ooh!
This is our chance
Honey! Let's not blow it

Ooh la la! It's such a turn-me-on lady
Ooh la la! It's such a beautiful you
Ooh la la! It's such a, such a, such a beautiful you
Yeah! It's such a, such a beautiful you
That's a funky young lady...

Bad Girl

Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

I don't believe a word they're sayin',
What they're sayin' isn't true.

Everybody calls her bad girl,
Everybody puts her down.
Why don't they take the time to understand,
She's lookin' for a love she's never found.

And it's only 'cause she's lonely
That's the way she got her name.
All she did was look for someone to love,
And they put the girl to shame.

(Hey there, she's not the girl for you)
Well you don't know her like I do.
(Hey there, listen to your friends)
If you're gonna put her down, here's where our friendship ends.

I don't hear a word you're sayin',
She's the one I'm dreamin' of,
So don't you ever call her bad girl again
'Cause she's found a boy to love.

(Hey there, open up your eyes)
All I see is just a pack of lies.
(Hey there, she's gonna break your heart)
I'm not gonna listen to the rumours that you start.

So don't you ever call her bad girl again
'Cause she's found a boy to love.
Oh yes, she's found the boy she loves,
Oh yes, she's found a boy to love,
And I'm the one she's dreamin' of,
Oh yes, she's found the one to love,
And I'm the boy she's dreamin' of...

Baby Blue

Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

Baby blue, he doesn't love you
He only wants to break your heart
Baby blue, he doesn't need you
He's gonna rip your dreams apart

Baby blue, you must forget him
Cause his love don't mean a thing
He's only gonna keep you
Like a puppet on a string

Let him go, baby blue
And clear those cloudy skies
Let him know, baby blue
I'm the one who'll dry your eyes

Give your heart to the heart
That loves no one but you
Let me bring a little sunshine to you
Baby blue

Baby blue, if you could love me
Never would I cause you pain
Baby blue, if you just trust me
I'm gonna chase away the rain

Baby blue, If I could reach you
I'll light your darkest day
But if it's gonna happen
You gotta send him on his way

Let him go, baby blue
And clear those cloudy skies
Let him know, baby blue
I'm the one who'll dry your eyes

Give your heart to the heart
Who loves no one but you
Let me bring a little sunshine to you
Baby blue

Let him go, baby blue
And clear those cloudy skies
Let him know, baby blue
I'm the one who'll dry your eyes

Give your heart to the heart
That loves no one but you
Let me bring a little sunshine to you
Baby blue

Let me bring a little sunshine to you
Baby blue

Baby, baby, baby blue...

Anywhere You're Gonna Be (Leba's Song)

Neil Sedaka

As if you think that you could run away and I would never find you.
You take the covers and you pull them past your eyes so they can't blind you.
You can run across a meadow,
Sail upon the deep blue sea,
Don't you know that I would travel
Anywhere you're gonna be.

Don't try to hide away 'cause I'll be anywhere you're gonna be.
Hide in the sky away and I'll be anywhere you're gonna be.
When you're down and feelin' lonely, so lonely,
You can always count on me,
Don't you know that I'll come runnin'
Anywhere you're gonna be.

Rest yourself upon my pillow,
Hold my hand and say my name.
I will always stay beside you,
It'll always be the same.

Don't try to hide away 'cause I'll be anywhere you're gonna be.
Hide in the sky away and I'll be anywhere you're gonna be,
I'll be anywhere you're gonna be.

Alone In New York In The Rain

Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

When the day is dawnin’
On a Texas Sunday mornin’
How I long to be there
With Marie who’s waitin’ for me there.
Every lonely city where I hang my hat
Ain’t as half as pretty as where my baby’s at.

Is this the way to Amarillo?
Every night I’ve been huggin’ my pillow
Dreamin’ dreams of Amarillo
And sweet Marie who waits for me.
Show me the way to Amarillo
I’ve been weepin’ like a willow
Cryin’ over Amarillo
And sweet Marie who waits for me.

Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la
And Marie who waits for me.

There’s a church bell ringin’
Hear the sound of joy that it’s singin’
For the sweet Maria
And the guy who’s comin’ to see her.
Just beyond the highway
Lies an open plain
And it keeps me goin’
Through the wind and rain.

Is this the way to Amarillo?
Every night I’ve been huggin’ my pillow
Dreamin’ dreams of Amarillo
And sweet Marie who waits for me.
Show me the way to Amarillo
I’ve been weepin’ like a willow
Cryin’ over Amarillo
And sweet Marie who waits for me.

Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la
And Marie who waits for me.

Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la
And Marie who waits for me.

Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la
And Marie who waits for me.

Alone In New York In The Rain

Neil Sedaka / Phil Cody

Stumblin' along,
Someone somewhere's been neglecting things.
I've known all along,
It's wrong to go about expecting things.
But lookin' for love in this city
Is like gettin' burned without feelin' no pain.

Safety first, cries the sign on the street.
Keep to yourself, sing the faces I meet.
So far from home,
All alone in New York in the rain.

Chilled by the breeze,
Autumn shadows are concealing things.
Worn at the knees,
Dungarees begin revealing things.
Lord, I'm so low and lonely,
Worst of all is this rain keeps on fallin'.

Safety first, cries the sign on the street.
Keep to yourself, sing the faces I meet.
So far from home,
All alone in New York in the rain.

Da da da da
Da da la la la la la la la
Da da da da
Da da la la la la la la la.
Lord, I'm so low and lonely,
Worst of all is this rain keeps on fallin'.

Safety first, cries the sign on the street.
Keep to yourself, sing the faces I meet.
So far from home,
All alone in New York in the rain.
All alone in New York in the rain.

Alone At Last

Neil Sedaka / Phil Cody

Stumblin' along,
Someone somewhere's been neglecting things.
I've known all along,
It's wrong to go about expecting things.
But lookin' for love in this city
Is like gettin' burned without feelin' no pain.

Safety first, cries the sign on the street.
Keep to yourself, sing the faces I meet.
So far from home,
All alone in New York in the rain.

Chilled by the breeze,
Autumn shadows are concealing things.
Worn at the knees,
Dungarees begin revealing things.
Lord, I'm so low and lonely,
Worst of all is this rain keeps on fallin'.

Safety first, cries the sign on the street.
Keep to yourself, sing the faces I meet.
So far from home,
All alone in New York in the rain.

Da da da da
Da da la la la la la la la
Da da da da
Da da la la la la la la la.
Lord, I'm so low and lonely,
Worst of all is this rain keeps on fallin'.

Safety first, cries the sign on the street.
Keep to yourself, sing the faces I meet.
So far from home,
All alone in New York in the rain.
All alone in New York in the rain.

All The Words In The World

Neil Sedaka / Phil Cody

Alone at last
In a hideaway
Far away
From all the worries in the world
We share each other
While the sun’s going down
Not another soul around
Alone, at last, you and I.

Sunshine
Plenty of space and time
Heady wine
For thirsty souls like yours and mine
We come together
Like the sea and the sand
In a very private wonderland
Alone at last
You and I
… Wave goodbye
to the crowded nights …
and city lights we left behind.
We love the dreams we share
And dare to live the dream.

The sea
In her serenity
Silently
Casts a spell on you and me.
We share each other
While the sun’s going down
Not another soul around
Alone … at last
Alone at last
You and I.

We share each other
While the sun’s going down
Not another soul around
Alone … at last
Alone at last
You and I.

Adventures Of A Boy Child Wonder

Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

Oooh all the words in the world,
Oooh all the words in the world,
Oooh all the words in the world,
Oooh all the words in the world,
Darlin' " Je vous aime beaucoup",
That in French means "I love you".
And "Yo te queiro mi amor"
That's what they say on the Spanish shore.
But oh my darlin' what can I say,
The right words just won't come my way,
All the words in the world could never tell you I love you.

"Io te amo", they agree,
Is the proper thing down in Italy.
"Ich liebe dich, mein fraulein"
That's the way the Germans say the same old line.
And though I try, I can't express
The way you fill my heart with happiness.
All the words in the world could never tell you I love you.

I could spend my time learnin' every line
In Webster's dictionary,
I could go from A to Z
But still I couldn't tell you what you mean to me.

I could search for a million ways,
But I know I'd never find the phrase.
I've looked around but, I regret,
The words I need weren't written yet.
And so my darlin' please take my hand,
Tell me, tell me, tell me that you understand
All the words in the world could never tell you I love you.

Oooh all the words in the world,
Oooh all the words in the world,
Oooh all the words in the world,
Oooh all the words in the world...

Adventures Of A Boy Child Wonder

Neil Sedaka / Phil Cody

Well I made me an airplane
Intendin' to fly.
My close friends warned me that it was useless to try,
They said, it's so heavy
It'll never get off the ground,
Believe it you'll wind up in pieces
When you finally come down.
Well I just tipped my hat and I flew all around the world,
Just me and my airplane.

Well I made me a submarine
And I went for a sail.
My close friends warned me that I was doomed to fail.
They said, it's so heavy
It's gonna sink right on down,
Believe it you'll wind up in pieces if ya don't come around.
Well I just gave them a wink and I sailed all around the world,
Just me and my submarine.

Then I found me a woman
Just as fine as can be.
My close friends warned me she was bad company.
They whispered, it's so heavy
It'll never get off the ground,
Believe it they'll wind up in pieces when it finally cools down.
Well we just gave them a smile and we took of around the world,
Just me and my woman.

And that's the adventures of a boy child wonder.

A Little Lovin'

Neil Sedaka / Phil Cody

Rain falls - nobody calls
Nothing to do - this must be Tuesday.
Don’t ask how I know. Wasn’t it always so?
Some times I draw the blinds
and make up a song alone in darkness.
Daydreams always seem a natural thing to do.

Making melodies – personal friends of mine
Clumsy hands caress the keys with a song of my own design.
A song that will hurry my worries away
Give me some sun on a rainy day.
When I’m feeling tied down I can fly away,
I can do it with just a song.

Making melodies – personal friends of mine
Clumsy hands caress the keys with a song of my own design.

Old friends – long dead and gone
Lovers I’ve lost and close relations.
So good to see ‘em all again
Living in this . . . a song.

#1 With A Heartache

Neil Sedaka / Phil Cody

Mama raised me to be a man
Told me, son ya have to understand
Learn to get while the gettin's good
And bring it back to the neighborhood

And I swear, I was there, tell me why should I lie
I just wanna say, a little lovin' goes a long long way

Uncle Henry and cousin Grace
Used to weekend at our place
Grace and I would go behind the barn
We almost burned the damn thing down

And I swear, I was there, tell me why should I lie
I just wanna say, a little lovin' goes a long long way

Oooh! I need your lovin', just a little lovin'
I need your lovin', just a little lovin'
A little lovin' each and every day
A little lovin' goes a long long way, long way...

I knew a woman from New Orleans
Her old man used to treat her mean
And she would come to me for sympathy
Southern comfort and ecstasy

And I swear, I was there, tell me why should I lie
I just wanna say, a little lovin' goes a long long way
Do it now!

Oooh! I need your lovin', just a little lovin'
I need your lovin', just a little lovin'
A little lovin' each and every day
A little lovin' goes a long long way now

I need your lovin', just a little lovin'
I need your lovin', just a little lovin'
A little lovin' each and every day
A little lovin' goes a long long way

#1 With A Heartache

Neil Sedaka / Howard Greenfield

Twinkle twinkle superstar
Fame and fortune took you far,
Everybody envies you,
You're number one.
Night and day your records play,
But ever since she went away
Life ain't no fun.
The songs you write about her
Keep comin' back without her.
The king of the charts is the king of broken hearts.

Number one with a heartache,
Hear the man singin' on the radio,
With every play, his heart is breakin'.
Number one with a heartache,
Sing your song while the whole world sings along,
Your love is gone,
But the music goes on.

Gee, it was a long hard climb
And it took a lot of time,
Time away from her when you should have been there.
Birthdays on the telephone,
Christmasses she spent alone,
It wasn't fair.
It took so long to make it,
The girl just couldn't take it.
Now that it's made, was it worth the price you paid?

Number one with a heartache,
Hear the man singin' on the radio,
With every play, his heart is breakin'.
Number one with a heartache,
Sing your song while the whole world sings along,
Your love is gone,
But the music goes on.

Number one with a heartache,
Hear the man singin' on the radio,
With every play, his heart is breakin'.
Number one with a heartache,
Sing your song while the whole world sings along...

The Hungry Years

(N.Sedaka/H.Greenfield)

Girl we made it to the top
we went so high we couldn't stop
we climbed the ladder leading us nowhere
Two of us together building castles in the air
We spun so fast we couldn't tell
the gold ring from the carousel
How could we know the right would turn-out bad
Everything we wanted, was everything we had
I miss the Hungry Years
the once upon a time
the lovely long ago
we didn't a dime
those days of me and you,
we lost along the way
how could I be so blind
not to see the door
closing on the World
I now hunger for
Looking through my tears,
I miss the Hungry years
We shared our day dreams one by one
Making plans was so much fun
We set our goals and reached the highest star
Things that we were after were much better from afar
Here we stand just me and you
with everything and nothing too
It wasn't worth the price we had to pay
Honey take me home Let's go back to yesterday
I miss the Hungry Years
the once upon a time the lovely long ago
we didn't have a dime
those days of me and you,
we lost along the way
how could I be so blind
not to see the door
closing on the World I now hunger for
Looking through my tears,
I miss the Hungry years
I miss the Hungry Years …

You Mean Everything To Me

Neil Sedaka/Howie Greenfield.
You are the answer to my lonely prayer
You are an angel from above
I was so lonely till you came to me
With the wonder of your love.
I don't know how I ever lived before
You are my life, my destiny
Oh my darling, I love you so
You mean everything to me
If you should ever, ever go away
There would be lonely tears to cry
The sun above would be never shine again
There would be teardrops in the sky
So hold me close and never let me go
And say our love will always be
Oh, my darling, I love you so
You mean everything to me
So hold me close and never let me go
And say our love will always be
Oh, my darling, I love you so
You mean everything to me

THE IMMIGRANT

(Neil Sedaka/Phil Cody)
Harbours opened their arms to the young searching foreigner
Come to live in the light of the beacon of liberty
Planes and open skies, billboards would advertise
Was it anything like that when you arrived
Dreamboats carry the future to the heart of America
People were waiting in line for a place by the river
It was a time when strangers were welcome here
Music would play, they tell me the days were sweet and clear
It was a sweeter tune and there was so much room that people could come from everywhere
Now he arrives with his hopes and his heart set on miracles
Come to marry his fortune with a hand full of promises
to find they've closed the door, they don't want him anymore
isn't anymore to go around
Turning away he remembers he once heard
a legend that spoke of a mystical magical land called America
There was a time when strangers were welcome here
Music would play, they tell me the days were sweet and clear
It was a sweeter tune and there was so much room that people could come from everywhere
There was a time when strangers were welcome here
Music would play, they tell me the days were sweet and clear
There was a time when strangers were welcome here
Music would play, they tell me the days were sweet and clear

The Diary

-Words by Howie Greenfield and Music by Neil Sedaka
(Ah, ah, ah, ah)
(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
How I'd like to look into that little book
The one that has the lock and key
And know the boy that you care for
The boy who's in your diary
When it's late at night what is the name you write?
Oh, what I'd give if I could see
Am I the boy that you care for?
The boy who's in your diary
Do you recall and make note of all
The little things I say and do?
The name you underline, I'm hoping that it's mine
Darling, I'm so in love with you-oo
Please don't leave me blue, make all my dreams come true
You know how much you mean to me
Say I'm the boy that you care for
The boy who's in your di-a-ry
(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
(Whoa-oh-oh-whoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Whoo-ooh-ooh-ooh)

Stupid Cupid

(N.Sedaka/H.Greenfield)

My Fine feathered friend with your cute little pranks,
I would like to express my thanks
I trusted you implicitly
But What a double-crosser you turned out to be

Stupid Cupid You're a real mean guy
I'd like to clip your wings so you can't fly
I'm in love and it's a crying shame
and I know that you're the one to blame
Hey Hey Set me Free
Stupid Cupid stop picking on me

I can't do my homework and I can't think straight
I meet her every morning bout half past eight
I'm acting like a lovesick fool
You've even got me carrying your books to school
Hey Hey Set me Free
Stupid Cupid stop picking on me

You messed me up for good right from the very start
Hey now, go play Robin Hood with somebody else's heart
You got me jumping like a crazy clown
and I don't feature what your putting down
Well since I kissed her loving lips of wine
the thing that bothers me is that I like it fine
Stupid Cupid stop picking on me
Hey Hey set me free
Stupid Cupid stop picking on me

You got me jumping like a crazy clown
and I don't feature what your putting down
Hey since I kissed her loving lips of wine
the thing that bothers me is that I like it fine
Hey Hey set me free
Stupid Cupid stop picking on me

SOLITAIRE

(N.Sedaka/P.Cody)

There was a man,
a lonely man
who lost his love through his indifference
a heart that cared
that went unshared
until it died within his silence

CHORUS:
And solitaire's the only game in town
and every road that takes him takes him down
while life goes on around him everywhere
he's playing solitaire
And keeping to himself he plays the game
without her love, it always ends the same
and by himself it's easy to pretend
he'll never love again

A little hope goes up in smoke
just how it goes, goes without saying
There was a man, a lonely man who would command
the hand he's playing

RUN SAMSON RUN

Neil Sedaka
In the bible, 1000 year bc
There's a story of ancient history
Bout a fella who was strong as he could be
Till he met a cheatin gal who brought him tragedy
CHORUS: Oh, run Samson run, Delilah's on her way
Run Samson run, you ain't got time to stay
Run Samson run, on your mark you better start
I'd rather trust a hungry lion than a gal with a cheatin heart
She was a demon, a devil in disguise
He was taken by the angel in her eyes
That lady barber was very well equipped
You can bet your bottom dollar that he was gonna get clipped
CHORUS
Oh Delilah made Sammy's life a sin
And he perished when the roof fell in
There's a moral so listen to me pal
There's a little of Delilah in each and every gal
CHORUS
I'd rather trust a hungry lion than a gal with a cheatin heart

NEXT DOOR TO AN ANGEL

(N.Sedaka/H.Greenfield)

I'm living right next door to an angel
And I just found out today
I'm living right next door to an angel
And she only lives a house away
She used to be a skinny little girl
But all of a sudden she's out of this world
I'm living right next door to an angel
And I'm gonna make that angel mine

Since I saw her this morning
I'm on cloud number nine
There's a garden of Eden
At the house next door to mine
I took a look and oh what a shock
To find a little bit of heaven
Right here on the block
I'm living right next door to an angel
And I'm gonna make that angel mine

I can't believe that this is the girl next door
Her funny little face isn't funny no more
Sixteen and oh what a dream
Ain't it strange how she changed
Into such a lovely angel

Saw her walkin' down main street
And I couldn't believe my eyes
It used to be such a plain street
But now it's paradise

I feel so happy I'm feelin' so good
I'm the luckiest devil in the neighbourhood
I'm living right next door to an angel
And I'm gonna make that angel mine

Love will keep us together

(N.Sedaka/H.Greenfield)

Love, Love will keep us together
Think of me babe whenever
some sweet talking guy comes along singing his song
Don't mess around, You got to be strong
Just Stop, 'cause I really love You
Stop, I'll be thinking of you
Look in my heart and let love keep us together
You, You belong to me now
Ain't gonna set you free now
When those guys start hanging around talking me down
Hear with your heart and You won't hear a sound
Just Stop, 'cause I really love You
Stop, I'll be thinking of you
Look in my heart and let love keep us together Whatever
Young and Beautiful Someday your looks will be gone
When the others turn you off Who'll be turning You on
I will, I will, I will, I will be there to share forever
Love will keep us together
Said it before and I'll say it again
while others pretend
I'll need you now and I'll need you then
Stop cause I really love Ya
Stop I'll be thinking of Ya
Look in my Heart and let love keep us together
Whatever I will, I will, I will …
Stop cause I really loveYa
Stop I'll be thinking of Ya
Look in my Heart and let love keep us together Whatever
I will, I will, I will, I will …
