You tell me that you're leavin',
I can't believe it's true! Girl, there's just no livin' without you. Don't take your love away from me. Don't you leave my heart in misery. 'Cause if you go, then I'll be blue, breakin' up is hard to do. Remember when you held me tight, and you kissed me all through the night. Think of all that we been through, and breakin' up is hard to do. They say that breakin' up is hard to do; now I know, I know that it's true. Don't say that this is the end. Instead of breakin' up I wish that we were makin' up again. I beg of you don't say goodbye; can't we give our love just one more try? Come on baby, let's start anew, breakin' up is hard to do. |

I'll never let you see
The way my broken heart is hurting me I've got my pride and I know how to hide all my sorrow and pain I'll do my crying in the rain If I wait for cloudy skies You won't know the rain from the tears in my eyes You'll never know that I still love you so though the heartaches remain I'll do my crying in the rain Raindrops fallin' from heaven Could never wash away my misery But since we're not together I look for stormy weather To hide these tears I hope you'll never see Crying, crying in the rain Some day when my cryin's done I'm gonna wear a smile and walk in the sun I may be a fool, but til then darling You'll never see me complain I'll do my crying in the rain |

It's gonna take some time this time
To get myself in shape. I really fell out of line this time, I really missed the gate. The birds on the telephone like, (next time) Are cryin' out to me, (next time) And I won't be so blind next time, And I'll find some harmony. But it's going to take some time this time, And I can't make demands. But, like the young trees in the winter time, I'll learn how to bend. After all the tears we've spent, How could we make amends? So, it's one more round for experience And I'm on the road again, And it's going to take some time this time! But it's going to take some time this time, No matter what I've planned. And, like the young trees in the winter time, I'll learn how to bend. After all the tears we've spent, How could we make amends? So, it's one more round for experience And I'm on the road again, And it's going to take some time this time! |

GROWING AWAY FROM ME
by Carole King You've been my life to me My very soul and my heart But lately something's come over you And it's tearing me apart CHORUS: Darlin' I feel you growing away from me More and more each day Whatever you want me to be I'll be If it keeps you from growing away from me Even whe you say you love me The feeling's no longer there I know there's somebody else And it's more than I can bear CHORUS Believe me, I would let you go if I could But I don't know if it's worse thing being lonely Than having you here in body only It's no use pretending When the love you used to feel is gone Yet even though I'm losing you I can't help tryin' to hold on CHORUS I feel you Growing away from me |

SONG OF LONG AGO
by Carole King Whispering wind came uninvited Looking for somewhere else to go Here is a lamp I've left unlighted Aren't you someone I should know? Memory's flame is soon ignited Lighting my lamp with amber glow Quietly friends are reunited Singing a song of long ago, la la la... Cry, cry for someone Who just can't be happy And be glad you can feel enough to cry Younger than always, time descended Bringing me brand new seeds to sow Now that they've been a long time planted What must I do to help them grow? If it had been as I intended I wouldn't have the peace I know Loving the people I've befriended Singin' a song of long ago, la la la... As it began, so I will end it Singing a song of long ago Loving the people I've befriended And singin' a song of long, long, long ago |

Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose
And sometimes the blues get a hold of you Ah, just when you thought you had made it All around the block people will talk But I want to give it all that I got I just don't want, I don't want to waste it Talking 'bout-a sweet seasons on my mind Sure does appeal to me You know we can get there easily Just like a sailboat sailing on the sea Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose And most times you choose between the two Ah, wondering, wondering if you have made it But I'll have some kids and make my plans And I'll watch the seasons running away And I'll build me a life in the open, a life in the country I'm talking 'bout-a sweet seasons on my mind Sure does appeal to me You know we can get there easily Just like a sailboat a-sailing on the sea Talkin' 'bout-a sweet seasons Talkin' 'bout-a sweet, sweet, sweet seasons Talkin' 'bout-a sweet seasons Talkin' 'bout-a sweet seasons |

Music is playing inside my head
Over and over and over again My friend, there's no end to the music... Ah, summer is over But the music keeps playing And won't let the cold get me down Pictures are forming inside my brain Soon with the colors they'll rain together and grow Then don't you know, don't you know there'll be music... Ah, it's not always easy But the music keeps playing And won't let the world get me down. |

When this old world starts getting me down
And people are just too much for me to face I climb way up to the top of the stairs And all my cares just drift right into space On the roof it's peaceful as can be And there the world below can't bother me Let me tell you now When I come home feelin' tired and beat I go up where the air is fresh and sweet I get away from the hustling crowds And all that rat race noise down in the street Up on the roof On the roof's the only place I know Where you just have to wish to make it so Oh, let's go up on the roof At night the stars put on a show for free And darling, you can share it all with me I keep a-telling you Right smack dab in the middle of town I found a paradise that's trouble-proof Up on the roof So if this world starts getting you down There's room enough for two, up on the roof Up on the roof, everything is allright Up on the roof, oh, come on, baby Up on the roof Up on the roof |
