~Love Songs~



Fields of Gold

Youll remember me when the west wind moves

Upon the fields of barley
Youll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we walk in the fields of gold

So she took her love
For to gaze awhile
Upon the fields of barley
In his arms she fell as her hair came down
Among the fields of gold

Will you stay with me, will you be my love

Among the fields of barley
Well forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we lie in the fields of gold

See the west wind move like a lover so
Upon the fields of barley
Feel her body rise when you kiss her mouth
Among the fields of gold
I never made promises lightly
And there have been some that Ive broken

But I swear in the days still left
Well walk in the fields of gold
Well walk in the fields of gold

Many years have passed since those summer days
Among the fields of barley
See the children run as the sun goes down
Among the fields of gold
Youll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley

You can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in the fields of gold
When we walked in the fields of gold
When we walked in the fields of gold

Killing Me Softly With His Song
Roberta Flack

Strumming my pain with his fingers,

Singing my life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song,
Killing me softly with his song,
Telling my whole life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song ...

I heard he sang a good song, I heard he had a style.
And so I came to see him to listen for a while.
And there he was this young boy, a stranger to my eyes.

Strumming my pain with his fingers,

Singing my life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song,
Killing me softly with his song,
Telling my whole life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song ...

I felt all flushed with fever, embarrassed by the crowd,
I felt he found my letters and read each one out loud.
I prayed that he would finish but he just kept right on ...

Strumming my pain with his fingers,

Singing my life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song,
Killing me softly with his song,
Telling my whole life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song ...

He sang as if he knew me in all my dark despair.
And then he looked right through me as if I wasn’t there.
But he just came to singing, singing clear and strong.

Strumming my pain with his fingers,

Singing my life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song,
Killing me softly with his song,
Telling my whole life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song ...

He was strumming, oh, he was singing my song.
Killing me softly with his song,
Killing me softly with his song,

Telling my whole life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song ...
With his song ...

The Temptations

I’ve got sunshine on a cloudy day.
When it’s cold outside I’ve got the month of May.

I guess you’d say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, my girl)
Talkin’ ‘bout my girl (my girl).

I’ve got so much honey, the bees envy me.
I’ve got a sweeter song than the birds in the trees.
I guess you’d say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, my girl)

Talkin’ ‘bout my girl (my girl).

Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Ooooh.

I don’t need no money, fortune, or fame.
I’ve got all the riches baby one man can claim.
I guess you’d say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, my girl)

Talkin’ ‘bout my girl (my girl).

I’ve got sunshine on a cloudy day
with my girl.
I’ve even got the month of May
with my girl (fade)

The Moody Blues - Nights in White satin´67

Nights in white satin,

Never reaching the end,
Letters Ive written,
Never meaning to send.

Beauty Id always missed
With these eyes before,
Just what the truth is
I cant say anymore.

cause I love you,
Yes, I love you,

Oh, how, I love you.

Gazing at people,
Some hand in hand,
Just what Im going thru
They can understand.

Some try to tell me
Thoughts they cannot defend,
Just what you want to be
You will be in the end,

And I love you,
Yes, I love you,
Oh, how, I love you.
Oh, how, I love you.

Nights in white satin,
Never reaching the end,
Letters Ive written,
Never meaning to send.

Beauty Id always missed

With these eyes before,
Just what the truth is
I cant say anymore.

cause I love you,
Yes, I love you,
Oh, how, I love you.
Oh, how, I love you.

cause I love you,
Yes, I love you,

Oh, how, I love you.
Oh, how, I love you.

Whitney Houston - I Will Always Love You

If I
Should stay
I would only be in your way
So I’ll go

But I know
I’ll think of you every step of
the way
And I...
Will always
Love you, oohh
Will always
Love you
You

My darling you
Mmm-mm

Bittersweet
Memories
That is all I’m taking with me
So good-bye
Please don’t cry
We both know I’m not what you
You need

And I...
Will always love you
I...
Will always love you
You, ooh
I hope
life treats you kind
And I hope
you have all you’ve dreamed of

And I wish you joy
and happiness
But above all this
I wish you love

And I...
Will always love you
I...
Will always love you

I, I will always love

You....
You
Darling I love you
I’ll always
I’ll always
Love
You..
Oooh
Ooohhh

*Video*



Artist/Band: Nelson Willie
Lyrics for Song: Always on My Mind

Maybe I didn’t love you
Quite as often as I could have
Maybe I didn’t treat you
Quite as good as I should have

If I made you feel second best
Girl I’m sorry I was blind

You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

Maybe I didn’t hold you
All those lonely, lonely times
And I guess I never told you
I’m so happy that you’re mine
Little things I should have said and done

I just never took the time

You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

Tell me, tell me that your
Sweet love hasn’t died
And give me
Give me one more chance
To keep you satisfied
satisfied

Little things I should have
Said and done
I just never took the time

You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind....

My favourite love song of the moment?

Two Way Streets-Reason To Live


The rain is falling it's another lonely day
And you're gone you're oh, so far away
I keep your picture in my mind
cause I know there'll come a time
When you'll be back with me and you'll stay

I hear you calling in the darkness of the night
and I turn as if to hold you tight
But when I reach to touch your face
There is just an empty space
And I know that only you can make it right

Living on the wild side
in a world that's sometime cruel
People try to tell you
if you're in love you're a fool

But I know you don't believe
that You know they're lying and they're wrong
And your love for me will help me carry on

You're the reason that I live
All I own I would give
Just to have you here with me in my arms

Another morning and I face the day alone
I miss you each moment that you're gone
I keep hearing in my head
All the thing I should have said
To let you know my love is burning strong

If you can hold on 'til the hard time pass us by
I'll be back to dry the tears you cry
And I swear it won't be long
But 'til I'm there you've got to be strong
and I will hold you in my heart until I die

Living on the wild side
in a world that's sometime cruel.
People try to tell you
if you're in love you're a fool

But I know you don't believe
that You know they're lying and they're wrong
And your love for me will help me carry on

You're the reason that I live
All I own I would give
Just to have you here with me in my arms

You're the reason that I live
All I own I would give
Just to have you here with me in my arms

Reason to Live, Two Way Streeet The song is at the bottom.

“Lighten Up the Load” is a track never released in the U.S. I believe it was either a U.K. single or B-side. It’s a simple, heartfelt song about a guy waiting at a bus station for the love of his life to return to him. Really gets me every time I hear it.

Excerpts:

I’ve been waiting in this station for what seems like a year
It’s midday now, but I don’t trust the clocks they have in here
Maybe ‘round the corner, you’ll be steppin’ off that bus
And then I will remember what it feels like to be us

Put your bags beside me, baby
Right here in the road
Put ‘em down and lighten up the load

If what you’re carrying is heavy as my heart
You’ll need a week’s recovery here within my arms

Here's another one I like:

Find Your Way Back
Jefferson Starship

You know it's been a long, long road
Since I packed up and left on my own
And I carry a heavy load
Just trying to get back to her heart

I sure ain't got no home
I seem to find love where I ramble
And when it's time to go
I hear that voice again saying

Find your way back...
Find your way back to her heart
Find your way back...
Find your way back to her heart

Leave a message with the rain
You can find me where the wind blows
The snow across the pain
And the frost upon the heart

You got no place to be
Still you wonder where you're going
And why I had to leave
I hear a voice and it says to me

Find your way back...
Find your way back to her heart
Find your way back...
Find your way back to her heart

I know it's too late now
But I wish I could go back in time
And start all over somehow
And get it right from the start

Find your way back...
Find your way back to her heart
Find your way back...
Find your way back to her heart

And yet another of my favorites; an oldie but goodie:

Shining Star
The Manhattans

Honey, you are my shining star
Don't you go away
Wanna be right here where you are
Until my dying day

So many have tried, tried to find
A love like yours and mine

Girl, don't you realize how you hypnotize?
Make me love you more each time

Honey I'll never leave you lonely
Give my love to you only
To you only, to you only

Honey, you are my shining star
Don't you go away
Wanna be right here where you are
Until my dying day

Feels so good when we're lying here next to each other
Lost in love

Baby, when we touch, love you so much
You're all I ever dreamed of

Honey I'll never leave you lonely
Give my love to you only
To you only, to you only

Honey, you are my shining star
Don't you go away
Wanna be right here where you are
Until my dying day

Mull of Kintyre did not work for me so I am I am trying this link.I love it:)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzs5aOYr8B4
Mull of kintyre
Oh mist rolling in from the sea,
My desire is always to be here
Oh mull of kintyre
Far have I traveled and much have I seen
Dark distant mountains with valleys of green.
Past painted deserts the sunsets on fire
As he carries me home to the mull of kintyre.

Mull of kintyre
Oh mist rolling in from the sea,
My desire is always to be here
Oh mull of kintyre

Sweep through the heather like deer in the glen
Carry me back to the days I knew then.
Nights when we sang like a heavenly choir
Of the life and the time of the mull of kintyre.

Mull of kintyre
Oh mist rolling in from the sea,
My desire is always to be here
Oh mull of kintyre

Smiles in the sunshine
And tears in the rain
Still take me back to where my memories remain
Flickering embers growing higher and higher
As they carry me back to the mull of kintyre

Mull of kintyre
Oh mist rolling in from the sea,
My desire is always to be here
Oh mull of kintyre

Mull of kintyre
Oh mist rolling in from the sea,
My desire is always to be here
Oh mull of kintyre
