Don't let it get you down
When you're not on top
A winner stumbles too
But gets up and never stops, no
Ain't it a doggone shame
Loving ain't a friendly game

Don't let it get you down, oh no
Don't let it get you down
When the cards are marked
Pick up what's left and walk away
Before you lose your heart
(Don't look back, girl)
Ain't it a doggone shame
Loving ain't a friendly game
Don't let it get you down, oh no

Look at me
Don't it seem like I know what I'm talking about
Talk to me
Let me be, be the one
I could straighten it out
Girl
(Don't let it get you down)

Ain't it a doggone shame
Loving ain't a friendly game
Don't let it get you down
I can bring you sunshine, make you happy
Ain't no cloudy skies hanging over me, yeah
Don't let it get you down

Don't let it get you down
You can start again
Now yesterday is gone
Let tomorrow be your friend
Hey, don't look back girl
My love is straight ahead
Don't let it get you down
Oh no

Look at me
Don't it seem like I know what I'm talking about
Talk to me
Let me be, be the one
I could straighten it out
I could straigthen it out

I don't like you
But I love you
See that I'm always
thinking of you
Oh, oh, oh,
you treat me badly
I love you madly
You've really got a hold on me
You've really got a hold on me, baby

I don't want you,
but I need you
Don't want to kiss you
but I need you
Oh, oh, oh
you do me wring now
my love is strong now
You've really got a hold on me
You've really got a hold on me, baby

I love you and all I want you to do
is just hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me

I want to leave you
don't want to stay here
Don't want to spend
another day here
Oh, oh, oh, I want to split now
I just can quit now
You've really got a hold on me
You've really got a hold on me, baby

I love you and all I want you to do
is just hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me

You've really got a hold on me
You've really got a hold on me

I woke up yesterday
Knowing I was lost in the past somewhere
I felt my destiny
Was a sad parade going nowhere
Then I saw my sweet melodie
Like a song you enchanted me
And the sound of your voice
Made my heart keep time
To the music of the love that fills my mind

Melodie
You're a symphony
A love song to me
You're my only
Melodie
You're my everything
Make me wanna sing
For you only

The long and winding road
Is much shorter now
That you're here with me
The questions in my mind
Have been answered now
Love has told me
All the colours are brighter now
And the darkness is lighter now
In my mind I can hear
The band start to play
Hello tomorrow
Goodbye yesterday

Melodie
You're my symphony
A love song to me
You're my only
Melodie
You're my everything
Make me wanna sing
For you only

Beautiful morning
Oh, happy day
And you know it's music to my ears
Every word that you say
Melodie
You're a symphony
A love song to me
You're my only
Melodie
You're my everything
Make me wanna sing
For you only

If I had a penny for everytime
I didn't hold your hand
If I had a nickel for everytime
I didn't understand

I'd be the world poorest millionaire
'Cause you're not there
And no one ever told me
What you're willing do

If I had only reach out
I might still be touching you
You got to touch the one you love
If you want the one you love to touch you
(You've got, you've gotta to touch
You gotta touch the one who loves you)

Would get embarrased for every time
I've moved and make you cry
You get sentimental, and
I would never know the reason why

I hold the world sings
Making for my selfish pride
Is it really over
When I get close to you

I only want to show you
That i'm learning a thing or two
If you want the one you love
If you want the one you love to touch
You got to....

(Fade out)

Girl, you're so together
Together we can make it
All the way
If I had a chance to choose
Between a million folks and you
I'd choose you babe
There's no tree that bears fruit
As sweet as you, no
Apples, peaches and cherries just won't do
Ooh, baby
Even a thousand lollipops could never hope
To top the sweetness of your kiss
Can you dig

Girl, you're so together
And together we can make it
All the way
If I had a chance to choose
Between a million folks and you
I'd choose you babe
Girl, your smile is like the month of May
When you're near me
The storm clouds stay away
Even the little honey bees turn to you
When they need more honey
Love you so much
It's not funny

Girl, you're so together
And together we can make it
All the way
Oh, girl, you're so together

Oh, hey girl, girl, eye, eye popper
A real-life traffic stopper
A knockout queen
Oh, what I mean is
Girl, you're so together
And together we can make it all the way
I love you, babe

Farewell my summer love
Farewell
Girl, I won't forget you
Farewell my summer love
Farewell

I found my happiest days
When you came to see your Grandma in May
I bumped into you at the corner store
I told you that you sure looked good now

Your Grandma's house was next to mine
We were together most of the time
But Summer's gotten away from us
Time's moving too fast for us
Bye bye, don't turn around
'Cause you might see me cry

Farewell my summer love
Farewell
Girl, I won't forget you
Farewell my summer love
Farewell

When you return to your home town
And you discuss your trip
Will I be the guy that you put down
Or someone that you don't forget

I'll never forget you
And maybe next year
When you're out of school
You'll return
But until you do, baby
Bye bye, don't turn around
You might see me cry

Farewell my summer love
Farewell
Girl, I won't forget you
Farewell my summer love
Farewell

Farewell
Farewell
Farewell
Farewell
If you remember my name
Drop a line some time, yeah
Girl, I won't forget you

Farewell my summer love
Farewell
Girl, I won't forget you

When you return to your home town
And you discuss your trip
Will I be the guy that you put down
Or someone that you don't forget, no

I'll never forget you
And maybe next year
When you're out of school
You'll return
But until you do, baby
Bye bye, don't turn around
You might see me cry

There goes the sunshine
Here comes the rain
And heartache pains
What can I do but wait for you

Darling, the days I have look cold
Now our separate ways we go
It seems you want more
Than the love I can give
Well, I can't make you stay
And you've got your life to live
But if it gets too rough
Call on me

Dreams of golden glare
Taking you away from here
But if ever thing that has to be
Turns you dreams around
Love and understanding's what you need
If you can't get enough
Call on me

I'm so sad you're leaving
It's gonna kill me not to be with you
But I want you to be happy
If partying's what you want
Then I want it too
So goodbye with all my prayers
For your happiness
In a world elsewhere
Should you arrive
And it's not there
Call on me
Call on me

Yes, happiness
Dwells for you elsewhere
Remember this
Should you arrive
And it's not there
Call on me
Call on me

I can't believe that is real
The way that you made me feel
A burning deep down inside
A love that I cannot hide
I know it's you honey baby, yeah

That makes the world go round
And it's keeping me here loving you baby
Laying all my troubles down
Here I am baby come and take me
Here I am baby come and take me

Take me by the hand
Oh, show me here I am baby, take me
Oh.. it always ends up this way
Me begging you every day
From love that I cannot hide
You broke my heart into half
I know it's you and me
Baby yeah...

To make my father proud
To make my mother smile
I need not conquer worlds aflame
Not set the pace for style

If I can follow through
All what they gave me as my tools
I'll find a way to sail my course
Avoiding ships of fools

If I don't come up number one
I'll stand up well apart
As one from numbered numbers
For knowing in my heart
I've done all to be done

To always do my best
By listening to me myself
So he can know a rest

For without compromise
Shall follow the food of constant care
In my eleventh hour
I'll be a man aware

To face whatever falls my way
Prepared then unashamed
To just be called a part of God
For which I have been named

A man and woman's younger son
While growing still a child
And that will make my father proud
And make my mother smile
