Jingle Bells
Jingle Bells
Jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
Jingle Bells
Jingle Bells
Jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
Dashing through the snow
In a one horse open sleigh
Over the fields we go
Laughing all the way
Bells on bop tails ring
Making spirts bright
What fun it is to
Ride a sleighing song tonight
Jingle Bells
Ji, Jingle Bells
Jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
Ba la la la bop
Jingle Bells
Ji, Jingle Bells
Jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
Dashing through the snow
In a one horse open sleigh
Over the fields we go
Laughing all the way
Bells on bop tails ring
Making spirts bright
What fun it is to
Ride a sleighing song tonight
Jingle Bells
Jingle Bells
Jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
Jingle Bells

Jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
Jingle Bells

Jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
Jingle Bells
Jingle Bells
Jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
SUMMER WIND
***************
The summer wind, came blowin’ in
From across the sea
It lingered there, to touch you hair
And walk with me
All summer long, we sang a song
And strolled the golden sand
Two sweethearts, and the summer wind
Like painted kites, the days and nights went flyin’ by
The world was new, beneath a blue umbrella sky
Then softer than, a piper man one day it called to you
And I lost you, to the summer wind
The autumn wind, and the winter winds have come and gone
And still the days, the lonely days go on and on
And guess who sighs his lullabies through nights that never end
Well my fickle friend, the summer wind
That old summer wind
Talkin’ ’bout the summer wind
The summer wind
LOVE ME TENDER
***************
Love me tender,
Love me sweet,
Never let me go.
You have made my life complete,
And I love you so.
Love me tender,
Love me true,
All my dreams fulfilled.
For my darlin’ I love you,
And I always will.
Love me tender,
Love me long,
Take me to your heart.
For it’s there that I belong,
And we’ll never part.
Love me tender,
Love me dear,
Tell me you are mine.
I’ll be yours through all the years,
Till the end of time.
(When at last my dreams come true
Darling this I know
Happiness will follow you
Everywhere you go).
SUMMERTIME
***************
Summertime and the livin’ is easy
Fish are jumpin’ and the cotton is high
Oh your daddy’s rich and your ma is good lookin’
So hush little baby don’t you cry
One of these mornin’s you’re gonna rise up singin’
Then you’ll spread your wings and you’ll take to the sky
But ’til that mornin’ there’s anothin’ can harm you
With daddy and mammy standin’ by
Oh, Summertime
And the livin’ is easy
And the livin’ is easy
Fish are jumpin’
Fish are jumpin
And the cotton is high
And the cotton is high
Oh your daddy’s rich and your ma is good lookin’
So hush little baby don’t you cry
Cry, cry
ONCE WHEN YOU WERE MINE
***************
Love slips away and we move on
Night becomes the dawn
Words tear us up just like a storm
Now love is gone leaving us strangers
The morning sky fills with rain
Nothing feels the same
Time leaves me remembering dreams
And places we’ve been
And how it all changes
Once when you were mine
We lived within a world all our own
Once when you were mine
Once there was a time
Love slips away and we move on
YOU COULD SHOW ME
***************
I don’t know how to begin
To let myself let you in
But you
Maybe you could show me
There’s so much more I would say
If someone showed me the way
Like you
Maybe you could show me
I’ve been so used to getting what I want
Doing what I want to do
I’ve always been the one who took the lead
Now I find I need
I need to follow you
So won’t you help me come through
My future’s long overdue
It’s time
I think I’m ready now
And you could show me how
