You’re Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go — Bob Dylan

I’ve seen love go by my door
It’s never been this close before
Never been so easy or so slow
Been shooting in the dark too long
When somethin’s not right it’s wrong
Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go

Dragon clouds so high above
I’ve only known careless love
It’s always hit me from below
This time around it’s more correct
Right on target, so direct
Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go

Purple clover, Queen Anne’s lace
Crimson hair across your face
You could make me cry if you don’t know
Can’t remember what I was thinkin’ of
You might be spoilin’ me too much, love
Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go

Flowers on the hillside, bloomin’ crazy
Crickets talkin’ back and forth in rhyme
Blue river runnin’ slow and lazy
I could stay with you forever and never realize the time

Situations have ended sad
Relationships have all been bad
Mine’ve been like Verlaine’s and Rimbaud
But there’s no way I can compare
All those scenes to this affair
Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go

Yer gonna make me wonder what I’m doin’
Stayin’ far behind without you
Yer gonna make me wonder what I’m sayin’
Yer gonna make me give myself a good talkin’ to

I’ll look for you in old Honolulu
San Francisco, Ashtabula
Yer gonna have to leave me now, I know
But I’ll see you in the sky above
In the tall grass, in the ones I love
Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go

We Can Work It Out– The Beatles

Try to see it my wayDo I have to keep on talking ’til I can’t go on?While you see it your wayRun the risk of knowing that our love may soon be gone

We can work it outWe can work it out

Think of what you’re sayingYou can get it wrong and still you think that it’s alrightThink of what I’m sayingWe can work it out and get it straight or say good night

We can work it outWe can work it out

Life is very short and there’s no timeFor fussing and fighting, my friendI have always thought that it’s a crimeSo I will ask you once again

Try to see it my wayOnly time will tell if I am right or I am wrongWhile you see it your wayThere’s a chance that we might fall apart before too long

We can work it outWe can work it out

Life is very short and there’s no timeFor fussing and fighting, my friendI have always thought that it’s a crimeSo I will ask you once again

With a Little Help From My Friends– The Beatles

With a Little Help from My Friends

What would you think if I sang out of tune?
Would you stand up and walk out on me?
Lend me your ears and I’ll sing you a song
And I’ll try not to sing out of key

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mmm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Ooh, I’m gonna try with a little help from my friends

What do I do when my love is away?
(Does it worry you to be alone?)
How does it feel by the end of the day?
(Are you sad because you’re on your own?)

No, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Ooh, I’m gonna try with a little help from my friends

Do you need anybody?
I need somebody to love
(Could it be anybody?)
I want somebody to love

Would you believe in a love at first sight
Yes, I’m certain that it happens all the time
(What do you see when you turn out the light?)
I can’t tell you but I know it’s mine

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Ooh, I’m gonna try with a little help from my friends

Do you need anybody?
I just need someone to love
(Could it be anybody?)
I want somebody to love

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I’m gonna try with a little help from my friends
Ooh, I get high with a little help from my friends
Yes, I get by with a little help from my friends
With a little help from my friends

Honky Tonk Women — The Rolling Stones

I met a gin-soaked barroom queen in Memphis
She tried to take me upstairs for a ride
She had to heave me right across her shoulder
‘Cause I just can’t seem to drink you off my mind[Chorus]
It’s the honky tonk women
That gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

[Verse 2]
I laid a divorcee in New York City
I had to put up some kind of a fight
The lady then she covered me in roses
She blew my nose and then she blew my mind

[Chorus]
It’s the honky tonk women
That gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

[Verse 3]
Strollin’ on the boulevards of Paris
Naked as the day that I will die
The sailors, they’re so charming there in Paris
But I just don’t seem to sail you off my mind

[Chorus]
It’s the honky tonk women
That gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk bluesIt’s the honky tonk women
That gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

Homeward Bound — Simon and Garfunkle

I’m sittin’ in the railway stationGot a ticket for my destinationOn a tour of one-night standsMy suitcase and guitar in handAnd every stop is neatly plannedFor a poet and a one-man band

Homeward boundI wish I wasHomeward boundHome where my thought’s escapin’Home where my music’s playin’Home where my love lies waitin’Silently for me

Every day’s an endless streamOf cigarettes and magazinesAnd each town looks the same to meThe movies and the factoriesAnd every stranger’s face I seeReminds me that I long to be

Homeward boundI wish I wasHomeward boundHome where my thought’s escapin’Home where my music’s playin’Home where my love lies waitin’Silently for me

Tonight I’ll sing my songs againI’ll play the game and pretendBut all my words come back to meIn shades of mediocrityLike emptiness in harmonyI need someone to comfort me

Homeward boundI wish I wasHomeward boundHome where my thought’s escapin’Home where my music’s playin’Home where my love lies waitin’Silently for meSilently for me

Hey Jude — The Beatles

Hey Jude
Song by The Beatles ‧ 1968

Hey Jude, don’t make it bad.
Take a sad song and make it better.
Remember to let her into your heart,
Then you can start to make it better.

Hey Jude, don’t be afraid.
You were made to go out and get her.
The minute you let her under your skin,
Then you begin to make it better.

And anytime you feel the pain, hey Jude, refrain,
Don’t carry the world upon your shoulders.
For well you know that it’s a fool who plays it cool
By making his world a little colder.

Hey Jude, don’t let me down.
You have found her, now go and get her.
Remember to let her into your heart,
Then you can start to make it better.

So let it out and let it in, hey Jude, begin,
You’re waiting for someone to perform with.
And don’t you know that it’s just you, hey Jude, you’ll do,
The movement you need is on your shoulder.

Hey Jude, don’t make it bad.
Take a sad song and make it better.
Remember to let her under your skin,
Then you’ll begin to make it
Better better better better better better, oh.

Na na na nananana, nannana, hey Jude…
(repeat X number of times, fade)

Helplessly Hoping

Helplessly hoping her harlequin hovers nearby
Awaiting a word
Gasping at glimpses of gentle true spirit, he runs
Wishing he could fly
Only to trip at the sound of goodbye
Wordlessly watching, he waits by the window and wonders
At the empty place inside
Heartlessly helping himself to her bad dreams, he worries
Did he hear a goodbye?
Or even hello?
They are one person
They are two alone
They are three together
They are for each other
They are one person
They are two alone
They are three together
They are for each other
Stand by the stairway
You’ll see something certain to tell you
Confusion has its cost
Love isn’t lying, it’s loose in a lady who lingers
Saying she is lost

And choking on hello
They are one person
They are two alone
They are three together
They are for each other

Groovin’ — Young Rascals

Groovin’ on a Sunday afternoon
Really couldn’t get away too soon
I can’t imagine anything that’s better
The world is ours whenever we’re together
There ain’t a place I’d like to be instead of

Movin’ down a crowded avenue
Doin’ anything we like to do
There’s always lots of things that we can see

You can be anyone we like to be
All those happy people we could meet

Just groovin’ on a Sunday afternoon
Really couldn’t get away too soon
No, no, no, no

We’ll keep on spending sunny days this way
We’re gonna talk and laugh our time away
I feel it coming closer day by day
Life would be ecstasy, you and me endlessly

Groovin’ on a Sunday afternoon
Really couldn’t get away too soon
No, no, no, no

Groovin’, uh huh…
Groovin’

Blackbird — The Beatles

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to be free

Blackbird, fly
Blackbird, fly
Into the light of the dark black night
Blackbird, fly
Blackbird, fly
Into the light of the dark black night

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
