Morning opens quietly
A shadow vision
Over me
I know you well
Hidden by the windows pane
And all my sadness
Gone charade
Begins to fade
How long it stayed
Patters of another day
Awaken slowly
Out of gray
A tolling bell
Rolling down the alleyway
It's calling all
My dreams away
My dreams are songs I play
Composta por: John Bettis, Richard Carpenter
After long enough of being alone
Everyone must face their share of loneliness
In my own time, nobody knew
The pain I was goin' through
And waitin' was all my heart could do
Hope was all I had until you came
Maybe you can't see how much you mean to me
You were the dawn breaking the night
The promise of mornin' light
Filling the world surroundin' me
When I hold you
Baby, baby, feels like maybe
Things will be all right
Baby, baby, your love's made me
Free as a song, singin' forever
Only yesterday when I was sad and I was lonely
You showed me the way to leave the past and all its tears behind me
Tomorrow maybe even brighter than today
Since I threw my sadness away
Only yesterday
I have found my home here in your arms
Nowhere else on earth I'd really rather be
Life waits for us, share it with me
The best is about to be
And so much is left for us to see
When I hold you
Baby, baby, feels like maybe
Things will be all right
Baby, baby, your love's made me
Free as a song, singin' forever
Only yesterday when I was sad and I was lonely
You showed me the way to leave the past and all its tears behind me
Tomorrow maybe even brighter than today
Since I threw my sadness away
Only yesterday (only yesterday, only yesterday)
Only yesterday when I was sad and I was lonely
You showed me the way to leave the past and all its tears behind me

Desperado
Why don't you come to your senses?
You've been out riding fences
For so long now
Ah, you're a hard one
But I know that you've got your reasons
These things that are pleasin' you... can I choose somehow
Don't you draw the Queen of Diamonds, boy
She'll beat you if she's able
You know the Queen of Hearts is always your best bet
Now it seems to me some fine things
Have been laid upon your table
But you only want the one that you can't get
Desperado
Ah, you ain't gettin' no younger
Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home
Freedom, ah, freedom, that's just some people talkin'
You're a prisoner walkin' through this world all alone
Don't your feet get cold in the wintertime
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
It's hard to tell the nite-time from the day
You're losin' all your highs and lows
Ain't it funny how the feelin' goes... away?
Desperado
Why don't you come to your senses
Come down from your fences and open the gate
It may be rainin'... but there's a rainbow above you
You better let somebody love you...
You better let somebody love you
Before it's too late

(Stop!) Oh yes, wait a minute, Mr. Postman
(Wait) wait, Mr. Postman
(Please, Mr. Postman, look and see)
Oh, yeah (if there's a letter in your bag for me)
Please, please, Mr. Postman (why's it taking such a long time)
Oh, yeah (for me to hear from that boy of mine?)
There must be some word today
From my boyfriend so far away
Please, Mr. Postman, look and see
If there's a letter, a letter for me
I've been standing here and waiting Mr. Postman
So patiently
For just a card, or just a letter
Saying he's returning home to me
Mr. Postman (Mr. Postman, look and see)
Oh, yeah (if there's a letter in your bag for me)
Please, please, Mr. Postman (why's it taking such a long time)
Oh, yeah (for me to hear from that boy of mine?)
So many days you passed me by
See the tears standing in my eyes
You didn't stop to make me feel better
By leaving me a card or a letter
Mr. Postman (Mr. Postman, look and see)
Oh, yeah (if there's a letter in your bag for me)
Please, please, Mr. Postman (why's it taking such a long time?)
Why don't you check it and see one more time for me?
You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute
Wait a minute, wait a minute
Ooh, Mr. Postman (Mr. Postman, look and see)
C'mon, deliver the letter, the sooner, the better (ah)

As we eye the blue horizon's bend
Earth and sky appear to meet and end
But it's merely an illusion
Like your heart and mine, there is no sweet conclusion
I can see
No matter how near you'll be
You'll never belong to me
But I can dream, can't I?
Can't I pretend
That I'm locked in the bend
Of your embrace?
For dreams are just like wine
And I am drunk with mine
I'm aware
My heart is a sad affair
There's much disillusion there
But I can dream, can't I?
Can't I adore you?
Although we are oceans apart
I can't make you open your heart
But I can dream, can't I?
Can't I pretend
That I'm locked in the bend
Of your embrace?
For dreams are just like wine
And I am drunk with mine
I'm aware
My heart is a sad affair
There's much disillusion there
But I can dream, can't I?
Can't I adore you?
Although we are oceans apart
I can't make you open your heart
But I can dream, can't I?

There was a man
A lonely man
Who lost his love
Through his indifference
A heart that cared
That went unshared
Until it died
Within his silence
And solitaire's the only game in town
And every road that takes him
Takes him down
And by himself it's easy to pretend
He'll never love again
And keeping to himself he plays the game
Without her love
It always ends the same
While life goes on around him everywhere
He's playing solitaire
A little hope
Goes up in smoke
Just how it goes
Goes without saying
There was a man
A lonely man
Who would command
The hand he's playing
And solitaire's the only game in town
And every road that takes him
Takes him down
And by himself it's easy to pretend
He'll never love again
And keeping to himself he plays the game
Without her love
It always ends the same
While life goes on around him everywhere
He's playing solitaire
And solitaire's the only game in town
And every road that takes him
Takes him down
While life goes on around him everywhere
He's playing solitaire

I've played the game of love before
Too young to know
How hard the fall could be
I never thought I'd try again
Somehow you brought
The gambler out in me
You can deal me in this time around
Even though the odds are high
We'll play them down
You may be a chance I need to take
And the hand I'm holdin' says it's no mistake
Happy is the way I'm feelin'
And I know it comes from being with you
All at once my life is changin'
And I know it's 'cause I'm fallin' in love with you
Fallin' in love with you
Fallin' in love
Fallin' in love with you
If this is luck then let it ride
If it's the starts
They're surely on my side
I've never been so satisfied
By love before
For all the times I've tried
These beginnings could mean more
Than the brief affair I bargained for
Little did I know, when we began
That my time had come to win a hand
Happy is the way I'm feelin'
And I know it comes from being with you
All at once my life is changin'
And I know it's 'cause I'm fallin' in love with you
Fallin' in love with you
Fallin' in love
Fallin' in love with you
Please forgive me if I seem
To be walking through a waking dream
Laughter never came so easily
There's a freedom here that's new to me
Happy is the way I'm feelin'
And I know it comes from being with you
All at once my life is changin'
And I know it's 'cause I'm fallin' in love with you
Fallin' in love with you
Fallin' in love
Fallin' in love with you

I have something to tell you
And I know, it won't be easy
I've been thinking these past few days
It might be time to leave
You're like a stranger
Then you're a lover
Never the same
Always hard to believe
I'm caught between goodbye and I love you
Never knowing quite where I stand
I'm caught between goodbye and I love you
Falling both ways, nowhere to land
So constantly stranded
I can't understand it
This double life, you've handed me
Is like the devil and the deep blue sea
If we go on much longer
If my doubts grow any stronger
Then I may have to let you go
If only to survive
Give me a reason
Why should I stay here
I've tried so hard
Just to keep love alive
I'm caught between goodbye and I love you
Never knowing quite where I stand
I'm caught between goodbye and I love you
Falling both ways nowhere to land
So constantly stranded
I can't understand it
This double life you've handed me
Is like the devil and the deep blue sea

We fell in love
On the first night that we met
Together we've been happy
I have very few regrets
The ordinary problems
Have not been hard to face
But lately little changes
Have been slowly taking place
You're always finding something
Is wrong in what I do
But you can't rearrange my life
Because it pleases you
You've got to love me for what I am
For simply being me
Don't love me for what you intend
Or hope that I will be
And if you're only using me
To feed your fantasy
You're really not in love
So let me go, I must be free
If what you want
Isn't natural for me
I won't pretend to keep you
What I am I have to be
The picture of perfection
Is only in your mind
For all your expectations
Love can never be designed
We either take each other
For everything we are
Or leave the life we've made behind
And make another start
You've got to love me for what I am
For simply being me
Don't love me if what you intend
Or hope that I will be
And if you're only using me
To feed your fantasy
You're really not in love
So let me go, I must be free
And if you're only using me
To feed your fantasy
You're really not in love
So let me go, I must be free
You're really not in love
So let me go, I must be free

Lying under barren skies
The light escaping from my eyes
Below the moon
Walking down the avenue
I'm followed by the afterglow
The velvet rose of evening grows
Weary to be home again
Among the faces of my friends
The day is done
Candles burning by the sea
Are waiting for me
Patiently
I wish the same
For you
