This happened once before
When I came to your door
No Reply
They said it wasn’t you
But I saw you peep through
Your window
I saw the light
I saw the light
I know that you saw me
‘Cause I looked up to see your face
I tried to telephone
They said you were not home
That’s’ a lie
‘Cause I know where you’ve been
I saw you walk in
Your door
I nearly died
I nearly died
‘Cause you walked hand in hand
With another man
In my place
If I were you
I’d realize that I
Love you more
Than any other guy
And I’ll forgive
The lie that I
Heard before
When you gave me no reply
I tried to telephone
They said you were not home
That’s’ a lie
‘Cause I know where you’ve been
I saw you walk in
Your door
I nearly died
I nearly died
‘Cause you walked hand in hand
With another man
In my place
No reply
No reply

I'LL BE BACK

You know
If you break my heart I’ll go
But I’ll be back again
‘Cause I
Told you once before goodbye
But I came back again
I love you so
I’m the one who wants you
Yes I’m the one who wants you
Oh ho oh ho
Oh you
Could find better things to do
Than to break my heart again
This time
I will try to show that I’m
Not trying to pretend
I thought that you would realize
That if I ran away from you
That you would want me too
But I got a big surprise
Oh ho oh ho
Oh you
Could find better things to do
Than to break my heart again
This time
I will try to show that I’m
Not trying to pretend
I want to go
But I hate to leave you
You know I hate to leave you
Oh ho oh ho
Oh you
If you break my heart I’ll go
But I’ll be back again

BLACKBIRD

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to be free
Blackbird fly
Blackbird fly
Into the light of a dark black night
Blackbird fly
Blackbird fly
Into the light of a dark black night
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise

IF I NEEDED SOMEONE

If I needed someone to love
You’re the one that I’d be thinking of
If I needed someone
If I had some more time to spend
Then I guess I’d be with you my friend
If I needed someone
Had you’d come some other day then
It might not have been like this
But you see now I’m too much in love
Carve your number on my wall and
Maybe you will get a call from me
If I needed someone

I'M ONLY SLEEPING
03:11

When I wake up early in the morning
Lift my head
I’m still yawning
When I’m in the middle of a dream
Stay in bed
Float upstream
Please don’t wake me
No don’t shake me
Leave me where I am
I’m only sleeping
Everybody seems to think I’m lazy
I don’t mind
I think they’re crazy
Running everywhere at such a speed
‘Til they find
There’s no need
Please don’t spoil my day
I’m miles away
And after all
I’m only sleeping
Keepin’ an eye on the world going by my window
Takin’ my time
Lying there and staring at the ceiling
Waiting for
A sleepy feeling
Please don’t spoil my day
I’m miles away
And after all
I’m only sleeping
Keepin’ an eye on the world going by my window
Takin’ my time
When I wake up early in the morning
Lift my head
I’m still yawning
When I’m in the middle of a dream
Stay in bed
Float upstream
Please don’t wake me
No don’t shake me
Leave me where I am
I’m only sleeping

GIRL

Is there anybody going to listen to my story
All about the girl who came to stay
She’s the kind of girl you want so much it makes you sorry
Still you don’t regret a single day
Ah Girl
Girl
When I think of all the times I tried so hard to leave her
She will turn to me and start to cry
And she promises the earth to me and I believe her
After all this time I don’t know why
Ah Girl
Girl
She’s the kind of girl who puts you down when friends are there
You feel a fool
When you say she’s looking good she acts as if it’s understood
She’s cool - ooh ooh ooh
Girl
Girl
Was she told when she was young that pain would lead to pleasure?
Did she understand it when they said?
That a man must break his back to earn his day of leisure
Will she still believe it when he’s dead?
Ah Girl
Girl
Ah Girl
Girl

YOU WON'T SEE ME
03:19
|

When I call you up
Your lines engaged
I have had enough
So act your age
We have lost the time
That was so hard to find
And I will lose my mind
If you won’t see me
You won’t see me
I don’t know why you
Should want to hide
But I can’t get through
My hands are tied
I won’t want to stay
I don’t have much to say
But I get turned away
And you won’t see me
You won’t see me
Time after time
You refuse to even listen
I wouldn’t mind
If I knew what I was missing
Though the days are few
They’re filled with tears
And since I lost you
It feels like years
Yes it seems so long
Girl since you’ve been gone
And I just can’t go on
If you won’t see me
You won’t see me

Here Comes The Sun
Do do do do
Here Comes The Sun
And I say
It’s alright
Little darlin’
It’s been a long cold lonely winter
Little darlin’
It feels like years since it’s been here
Here Comes The Sun
Do do do do
Here Comes The Sun
And I say
It’s alright
Little darlin’
The smiles returning to the faces
Little darlin’
It seems like years since it’s been here
Here Comes The Sun
Do do do do
Here Comes The Sun
And I say
It’s alright
Sun Sun Sun here it comes
Sun Sun Sun here it comes
Sun Sun Sun here it comes
Sun Sun Sun here it comes
Sun Sun Sun here it comes
Little darling’
I feel the ice is slowly melting
Little darlin’
It seems like years since it’s been clear
Here Comes The Sun
Do do do do
Here Comes The Sun
And I say
It’s alright
Here Comes The Sun
Do do do do
Here Comes The Sun
It’s alright
It’s all right

NOT A SECOND TIME

You know you made me cry
I see no use in wondering why
I cried for you
And now you’ve changed you mind
I see no reason to change mine
My cry is through
Oh oh
You’re giving me the same old line
I’m wondering why
You hurt me then
You’re back again
No no no
Not a second time

I don’t want to spoil the party so I’ll go
I would hate my disappointment to show
There’s nothing for me here
So I will disappear
If she turns up while I’m gone please let me know
I had a drink or two and I don’t care
There’s no fun in what I do if she’s not there
I wonder what went wrong
I waited far too long
I think I’ll take a walk and look for her
Though tonight she’s made me sad
I still love her
If I find her I’ll be glad
I still love here
Though I’ve had a drink or two and I don’t care
There’s no fun in what I do if she’s not there
I wonder what went wrong
I waited far too long
So I think I’ll take a walk and look for her
Though tonight she’s made me sad
I still love here
If I find her I’ll be glad
I still love here
I don’t want to spoil the party so I’ll go
I would hate my disappointment to show
There’s nothing for me here
So I will disappear
If she turns up
While I’m gone
Please let me know

Here I stand head in hand
Turn my face to the wall
If she’s gone I can’t go on
Feeling two foot small
Everywhere people stare
Each and everyday
I can see them laugh at me
And I hear them say
Hey – You’ve got to hide your love away
Hey – You’ve got to hide your love away
How can I even try
I can never win
Hearing them seeing them
In the state I’m in
How could she say to me
Love will find a way
Gather round all you clowns’
Let me hear you say
Hey – You’ve got to hide your love away
Hey – You’ve got to hide your love away
