I don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents underneath the Christmas tree
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you
Yeah

I don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need (and I)
Don't care about the presents underneath the Christmas tree
I don't need to hang my stocking there upon the fireplace
Santa Claus won't make me happy with a toy on Christmas Day

I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you
You, baby
 

Mariah Carey.

On a night when bad dreams become a screamer
When they're messin' with the dreamer, I can laugh it in the face
Twist and shout my way out and wrap yourself around me
'Cause I, I ain't the way you found me and I'll never be the same

Oh, yeah, well, 'cause you (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh) Mm-hmm
You make my dreams come true
Oh, yeah (You, you, you, ooh-ooh-ooh, you)
Well, well, well, you (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh) Ooh-ooh
You make my dreams come true

I'm doing
My Christmas dreaming
A little early this year
No sign of snow around
And yet I go around
Hearing jingle bells
Ringing in my ear

Your promise
Must be the reason
The happy season is here
So I'm doing
My Christmas dreaming
A little early this year

Frank Sinatra

When I met you in the restaurant
You could tell I was no debutante
You asked me what's my pleasure
"A movie or a measure?"
I'll have a cup of tea
And tell you of my

Dreamin', dreamin' is free
Dreamin', dreamin' is free

I don't want to live on charity
Pleasure's real or is it fantasy?
Reel to reel is living rarity
People stop and stare at me
We just walk on by
We just keep on dreamin'

Beat feet, walking a two-mile
Meet me, meet me at the turnstile
I never met him, I'll never forget him
Dream, dream, even for a little while
Dream, dream, filling up an idle hour
Fade away (woo), radiate....

Too real is this feeling of make-believe
Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

Yes, I'm the great pretender
Just laughin' and gay like a clown
I seem to be what I'm not, you see
I'm wearing my heart like a crown
Pretending that you're still around
(Still around)

I wear my heart on my sleeve,
I'm not afraid to say what i mean,
Mean what i say.
I set myself up, let myself down,
I may be a fool to spread it around.
But i just wanna let you know,
Sometimes i find it so hard not to show,
So i sigh and i let my feelings go.

I wear my heart on my sleeve,
Don't count the cost,
If i can't live in love then surely i've lost.
You tend to get burned, tend to get bruised,
But it's my life whatever i choose.
Oh, i just wanna let you know,
Sometimes i, i find it so hard not to show,
So i sigh and i let my feelings go.......

"Heart of my heart", I love that melody
"Heart of my heart" brings back a memory
When we were kids on the corner of the street
We were rough and ready guys
But oh, how we could harmonize

"Heart of my heart" meant friends were dearer then
Too bad we had to part
I know a tear would glisten if once more I could listen
To that gang that sang "Heart of my heart"

The Four Aces et al

Heartaches, heartaches
My loving you, they're only heartaches
Your kiss was such a sacred thing to me
I can't believe it's just a burning memory

Allan Sherman version:

Headaches, headaches
Aspirin commercials give me headaches
Just when I'm feeling chipper as you please,
That's when they show me all my sinus cavities

[mushroom25]

It's a heartache
Nothing but a heartache
Hits you when it's too late
Hits you when you're down

It's a fool's game
Nothing but a fool's game
Standing in the cold rain
Feeling like a clown

It's a heartache
Nothing but a heartache
Love him 'til your arms break
Then he let's you down

It ain't right with love to share
When you find he doesn't care for you
It ain't wise to need someone
As much as I depended on you

Oh, it's a heartache......

Scott/Wolfe, performed by Bonnie Tyler

[maggiebee]

Heartaches by the number
Troubles by the score
Everyday you love me less
Each day I love you more

Yes, I've got heartaches by the number
A love that I can't win
But the day that I stop counting
That's the day my world will end

Guy Mitchell

[Canary42]

Birds sing out of tune
And rain clouds hide the moon
I'm okay
Here I'll stay
With my loneliness
I don't care what they say
I won't stay in a world without love

"Good evening, this is the intergalactic operator, can I help you?"
"Yes, I'm trying to reach flight commander P. R. Johnson, on Mars, flight 2-4-7"
"Very well, hold on, please, you're through"
"Thank you, operator"

Hi, darlin', how are you doing?
Hey, baby, where're you sleeping?
Oh, I'm sorry, but I've been really missing you
Hi, darlin', how's the weather?
Say, baby, is that cold better now?
Oh, I'm sorry, is there someone there with you?

Oh, since you went away, there's nothing goin' right
I just can't sleep alone at night
I'm not ashamed to say I badly need a friend
Or it's the end

Now, when I look at the clouds across the moon
Here in the night, I just hope and pray that soon
Oh, baby, you'll hurry home to me.....

Hewson, performed by The RAH Band

I'll be home, my darling
Please wait for me (wait for me)
We'll stroll along together
Once more our love will be free

Me and my shadow
Strolling down the avenue
Me and my shadow
Not a soul to tell our troubles to
And when it's twelve o'clock
We climb the stair
We never knock
For nobody's there
Just me and my shadow
All alone and feeling blue

Peggy Lee

Now in the street, there is violence

And, and a lots of work to be done

No place to hang out our washing

And, and I can't blame all on the sun

we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue

And then we'll take it higher

(Oh) we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue

And then we'll take it higher

Eddie Grant

[Hazlinny]

You know your love (your love keeps lifting me)
Keep on lifting me (your love keeps lifting me)
Higher, higher and higher (lifting me higher and higher, higher)
I said your love (your love keeps lifting me)
Keep on (your love keeps lifting me)
Lifting me (lifting me)
Higher and higher (higher and higher, higher

Jackie Wilson

[mushroom25]

She stood there bright as the sun on that California coast
He was a Midwestern boy on his own
She looked at him with those soft eyes, so innocent and blue
He knew right then he was too far from home

He was too far from home

She took his hand, and she led him along that golden beach
They watched the waves tumble over the sand
They drove for miles and miles up those twisting turning roads
Higher and higher and higher they climbed

And those Hollywood nights
In those Hollywood hills
She was looking so right
In her diamonds and frills
All those big city nights
In those high rolling hills
Above all the lights
She had all of the skills.....

Bob Seger

And I'm gonna keep on lovin you

Cause it's the only thing I wanna do

I don't wanna sleep

I just wanna keep on lovin you

And I meant every word I said

When I said that I love you I meant

That I love you forever

Seven days of Saturday
Is all that I need
Got no use for Sunday
'Cause I don't rest in peace
I don't need no mondays
Or the rest of the week
I spend a lot of time in bed
But baby I don't like to sleep, no

I won't lie to you
I'm never gonna cry to you
I'll probably drive you wild eight days a week
Until I'm six feet under, baby
I don't need a bed
Gonna live while I'm alive
I'll sleep when I'm dead
Till they roll me over
And lay my bones to rest
Gonna live while I'm alive
I'll sleep when I'm dead....

Fame
I'm gonna live forever
I'm gonna learn how to fly high
I feel it coming together
People will see me and cry

Fame
I'm gonna make it to heaven
Light up the sky like a flame
Fame
I'm gonna live forever
Baby, remember my name
