I Count The Tears

Na, na, na, na, na, na, late at night
Na, na, na, na, na, na, late at night
I sit and count the tears

I have counted everyday since you've been away
It seems like a thousand years

And at na, na, na, na, na, na, late at night
Na, na, na, na, na, na, late at night
I sit and count the tears

And I have counted all your lies, all your alibis
Now, I'm a girl, believes just what she hears

And at na, na, na, na, na, na, late at night
Na, na, na, na, na, na, late at night
I sit and count the tears

He's gone and found somebody new
She may be happy now but soon
She'll be counting everyday that he's been away
And it will seem like a thousand years

And at na, na, na, na, na, na, late at night
Na, na, na, na, na, na, late at night
She'll sit and count the tears

She'll sit and count the tears
She'll sit and count the tears

Na, na, na, na, na, na, late at night
Na, na, na, na, na, na, late at night
Na, na, na, na, na, na, late at night
Na, na, na, na, na, na, late at night

I Think It's Going To Rain Today

Broken windows and empty hallways
A pale dead moon in a sky streaked with gray
Human kindness is overflowing
And I think it's going to rain today

Scarecrows dressed in the latest styles
With frozen smiles to chase love away
Human kindness is overflowing
And I think it's going to rain today

Lonely, lonely
Tin can at my feet
I think I'll kick it down the street
That's the way to treat a friend

Bright before me the signs implore me
To help the needy and show them the way
Human kindness is overflowing
And I think it's going to rain today

Oh Holy Night

Oh, Holy Night
The stars
Are brightly shining
It is the night of the dear
Saviour's birth
Long lay the world in sin
And error pining
'Til He appeared
And the soul felt
It's worth a thrill of hope
The weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new
And glorious morn
Fall on your knees
Oh, hear the angel voices

Oh, night divine
Oh, night
When Christ was born
Oh, night divine
Oh night
Oh, Holy night
Fall on your knees
Oh, hear the angel voices
Oh, night divine
Oh, night
When Christ was born
Oh, night divine
Oh, night
Oh, Holy night

Oh, night divine
Oh, night
When Christ was born
Oh, night divine
Oh night
Oh, Holy night
Fall on your knees
Oh, hear the angel voices
Oh, night divine
Oh, night
When Christ was born
Oh, night divine
Oh, night
Oh, Holy night

River Is Waiting

The river is waiting
Come rise up
A new day is coming
Come rise up

We’ll be sailing at first light
Come gather
Set our course for the crossing
Together

Sail on, sail on
River sail on
Sail on, sail on
River sail on

The river is waiting
I'm ready
To slip from this island
I'm ready

Gonna leave all my sorrows
Behind me
Lift my face to the new day
I’m rising

Oh, sail on, sail on
River sail on
Sail on, sail on
River sail on

Sail on, sail on
River sail on
Sail on, sail on
River sail on

Sail on, sail on
River sail on
Sail on, sail on
River sail on

Sail on, sail on
River sail on
Sail on, sail on
River sail on

Sail on, sail on

Same Old Blues

Morning rain keeps on falling
Like the tears that fall from my eyes
Oh, as I sit, as I sit in my room staring out at the gloom
It's the rain, it's the same old blues

I can't help, I can't help but thinking
When the sun used to shine, shine in my back door
Yes now, the sun has turned to rain
And all my laughter has turned to pain
It's the pain of the same old blues

Sunshine, sunshine is all you see now
But it all looks like, it all looks like clouds to me
But as I sit, as I sit in my room
Just staring out the window looking at the gloom
Oh, it's the rain and it's the same, same old blues
It's the rain and it's the same old blues
Yes, yes, it's the rain and it's the same, the same old blues, yeah

Thinking About You

Yesterday I saw the sun shining
And the leaves were falling down softly
My cold hands needed a warm, warm touch
And I was thinking about you

But here I am looking for signs to lead me
You hold my hand but do you really need me
I guess it's time for me to let you go
But I'll be thinking about you, I'll be thinking about you

When you sail across the ocean waters
And you reach the other side safely
Could you smile a little smile for me?
'Cause I'll be thinking about you, I'll be thinking about you
'Cause I'll be thinking about you, I'll be thinking, thinking
Thinking about you

Time iS On My Side

Time is on my side
Yes, it is
Time is on my side
Yes, it is

Now you always say that you want to be free
But you'll come running back
(Said you would baby)
You'll come running back
(I said so many times before)
You'll come running back to me

Oh, time is on my side
Yes, it is
Time is on my side
Yes, it is

You're searching for good times
But just wait and see
You'll come running back
(I won't have to worry no more)
You'll come running back
(Spend the rest of my life with you, baby)
You'll come running back to me

Go ahead, go ahead and light up the town
And baby, do everything your heart desires
Remember, I'll always be around
And I know, I know
Like I told you so many times before

You're gonna come back, baby
'Cause I know
You're gonna come back knocking
Yeah, knocking right on my door
Yes, yes!

Well, time is on my side
Yes, it is
Time is on my side
Yes, it is

'Cause I got the real love
The kind that you need
You'll come running back
(Said, you would, baby)
You'll come running back
(I always said, you would)
You'll come running back to me

Yes, time, time, time is on my side
Yes, it is
Time, time, time is on my side
Yes, it is

Oh, time, time, time is on my side
Yes, it is
I said, â€oTime, time, time is on my sideâ€?
Yes, it is

Oh, time, time, time is on my side
Yeah, time, time, time is on my side
