Lado A

Rainy days and Mondays

Composta por: Paul Williams, Roger S. Nichols

Talkin' to myself and feelin' old
Sometimes I'd like to quit
Nothin' ever seems to fit
Hangin' around
Nothin' to do but frown
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down

What I've got they used to call the blues
Nothin' is really wrong
Feelin' like I don't belong
Walkin' around
Some kind of lonely clown
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down

Funny, but it seems I always wind up here with you
Nice to know somebody loves me
Funny, but it seems that it's the only thing to do
Run and find the one who loves me (the one who loves me)

What I feel has come and gone before
No need to talk it out (talk it out)
We know what it's all about
Hangin' around (hangin' around)
Nothin' to do but frown
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down

Funny, but it seems that it's the only thing to do (only thing to do)
Run and find the one who loves me (ooh)

What I feel has come and gone before
No need to talk it out (to talk it out)
We know what it's all about
Hangin' around (hangin' around)
Nothin' to do but frown
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down
Hangin' around (hangin' around)
Nothin' to do but frown
Rainy days and Mondays always get
Me down

Saturday

Letra de: John Bettis
Música de: Richard Carpenter

Saturday began just the same as other days
But ended up different in many ways
Love is in my world since Saturday

Mornin' came but somehow it didn't seem the same
The sadness of Friday had somehow changed
To the happy sounds of Saturday
Saturday, ever-loving Saturday

I whistle to bluebirds
I tried to tell them how you brought me sunshine
My head's filled with new words
That sing to the sounds of happy day after Friday

Come and see the flowers of love she gave to me
The touches of laughter and harmony
To the happy sounds of Saturday
Saturday, ever-loving Saturday

My head's full of new words
Sing to the sounds of the day after Friday
Day after Friday
Come and see the flowers of love she gave to me
The touches of laughter and harmony
To the happy sounds of Saturday
Saturday, ever-loving Saturday
Saturday, Saturday, ever-loving Saturday

Let me be the one

Composta por: Paul Williams, Roger S. Nichols

Some sleepless night
If you should find yourself alone

Let me be the one you run to
Let me be the one you come to
When you need someone to turn to
Let me be the one

To set things right
When this old world's turned upside down

Let me be the one you run to
Let me be the one you come to
When you need someone to turn to
Let me be the one

For love and understanding
To find a quiet place
For silent understanding
A loving touch
Come to me when things go wrong
And there's no love to light the way

Let me be the one you run to
Let me be the one you come to
When you need someone to turn to
Let me be the one

Let me be the one you run to
Let me be the one you come to
When you need someone to turn to

Let me be the one you run to
Let me be the one you come to
When you need someone to turn to

Let me be the one you run to
Let me be the one you come to
When you need someone to turn to

Let me be the one you run to
Let me be the one you come to
When you need someone to turn to

(A place to) Hideaway

Composta por: Randy Sparks

I've got to find a place to hideaway
Far from the shadows of my mind
Sunlight and laughter, love ever after
Oh, how I long to find a place to hide away

I hear you whisper and I must obey
Blindly I follow where you lead
Knowing tomorrow, brings only sorrow
Where can I go to find a place to hide away?

Bright colored pinwheels go round in my head
I run through the mist of the wine
But night and the music remind me instead
The world once was mine (once was mine)

I'll save my pennies for a rainy day (save them for a rainy day)
But where can I buy another you?
Dreams are for sleeping, love is for weeping
Oh, how I long to find a place to hide away

But night and the music remind me instead
The world once was mine (world once was mine)

I'll save my pennies for a rainy day (save them for a rainy day)
But where can I buy another you?
Dreams are for sleeping, love is for weeping
Oh, how I long to find a place to hide away

For all we know

Composta por: Arthur James, Fred Karlin, Robb Wilson

Love, look at the two of us
Strangers in many ways
We've got a lifetime to share
So much to say and as we go from day to day
I'll feel you close to me
But time alone will tell
Let's take a lifetime to say
I knew you well
For only time will tell us so
And love may grow for all we know

Love, look at the two of us
Strangers in many ways
Let's take a lifetime to say
I knew you well
For only time will tell us so
And love may grow for all we know

Lado B

Superstar

Composta por: Bonnie Bramlett, Leon Russell

Long ago, and, oh, so far away
I fell in love with you before the second show

Your guitar, it sounds so sweet and clear
But you're not really here, it's just the radio

Don't you remember, you told me you loved me, baby?
You said you'd be coming back this way again, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh baby
I love you, I really do

Loneliness is such a sad affair
And I can hardly wait to be with you again

What to say to make you come again? (baby)
Come back to me again (baby)
And play your sad guitar

Don't you remember, you told me you loved me, baby?
You said you'd be coming back this way again, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh baby
I love you, I really do

Don't you remember, you told me you loved me, baby?
You said you'd be coming back this way again, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh baby
I love you, I really do

Druscilla Penny

Letra de: John Bettis
Música de: Richard Carpenter

Druscilla Penny
What a name
Are you sure you didn't make it up yourself?
You're very pretty
Yes, you are
But with all the junk you wear it's hard to tell

Man, you must work hard to get your hair to look like that
I don't need a horoscope to tell me where you're at
Your family's probably given up on you since you began to follow groups
Of long haired rock and rollers
I can hear your mother
Crying for her daughter

Druscilla Penny
What a girl
Where's the purpose to the crazy life you lead?
It doesn’t matter
After all
You're so sure instant love is all you need

I've seen your face at least a thousand times you're always standing there behind
The stages at the concerts
Waiting for an offer
To be with someone after

Druscilla Penny
How's your head?
Do you ever wake up lonely in the night?
It isn't easy
For a girl
When she can't decide if love is wrong or right

I hope I live
To see a change
Could you ever really love?
Ever really care?
Ever really get it together?
No (no)

One love

Letra de: John Bettis
Música de: Richard Carpenter

One love
In my young life
Took me
Somewhere I had never been
And I want to live again
Breathe again
In the shelter of his brightly
Woven love song
So long
I have wanted love to be
Sitting just this near to me
Now my waiting heart is free

Few are the choices we are given
(Few are the choices we are given)
The sands of time pass quickly by

One dream
Of my young life
Now stands
Holding out his hand to me
Now I can't help but believe
That my whole life will be
Spent in one love

Few are the choices we are given
(Few are the choices we are given)
The sands of time pass quickly by

One dream
Of my young life
Now stands
Holding out his hand to me
Now I can't help but believe
That my whole life will be
Spent in one love
(Spent in one love)
(Spent in one love)

Bacharach / David Medley

Composições de: Burt Bacharach, Hal David

Knowing when to leave

Go while the going is good
Knowing when to leave may be
The smartest thing anyone can learn, go!

I'm afraid my heart
Isn't very smart

Fly while your still have your wings
Knowing when to leave never let you reach
The point of no return, fly!

Foolish as it seems
I still have my dreams

So I keep hoping, day after day
As I wait for the man I need
Night after night as I wish
For a love that can be

Though I'm sure that no one can tell where their
Wishes and hopes will lead, somehow I feel
There is happiness waiting for me

When someone walks in your life
You just better be sure it's right
'Cause if he's wrong, there's are heartaches and tears you must pay

Keep both of your eyes on the door
Never let it get out of sight
Just be prepared when the time has come
You run away

Sail when the wind starts to blow
But like a fool I don't know
When to
Leave...

Make it easy on yourself

And make it easy on yourself
Make it easy on yourself, easy on yourself

'Cause breaking up is so very hard to do

(There's) Always something there to remind me

If you should find you miss
The sweet and tender love we used to share
Love we used to share
Just go back to the places where we used to go
And I'll be there
Oh, how can I forget you

When there is always something there to remind me
Always something there to remind me

I was born to love you
I will never be free
You'll always be a part of me

When there is always something there to remind me

I'll never fall in love again

Don't tell me what it's all about
'Cause I've been there and I'm glad I'm out
Out of those chains those chains that bind you
That is why
I'm here to remind you

What do you get when you fall in love?
You only get lies and pain and sorrow
So, for at least, until tomorrow
I'll never fall in love again
Oh, I'll never fall in love again

Walk on by

If you see me walkin' down the street
And I start to cry each time we meet
Walk on by, walk on by
Make believe you don't see the tears
Just let me grief in private
'Cause each time I see you I break down and cry
Walk on by

I just can't get over losing you
So if I should seem broken and blue
Walk on by, walk on by
Foolish pride that's all that I have left
So let me have the tears and the sadness that you gave me
When you said good-bye
Walk on by, by

Do you know the way to San Jose

Do you know the way to San Jose?
I've been away so long
I may go wrong and lose my way

Do you know the way to San Jose?
I'm going back to find some peace of mind in San Jose
L.A. is a great big freeway
Put a hundred down a by a car
In a week, maybe two they'll make you a star
Weeks turn into years, how quick they pass
And all the stars there never were
Are parking cars and pumping gas

I've got lots of friends in San Jose
Can't wait to get back to San Jose
Do you know the way to San Jose?

Sometimes

Letra de: Felice Mancini
Música de: Henry Mancini

Sometimes, not often enough
We reflect upon the good things
And those thoughts always center around those we love

And I think about those people who mean so much to me
And for so many years have made me so very happy
And I count the times I have forgotten to say thank you
And just how much I love them
