Carole King

One fine day, you'll look at me
And you will know our love was, meant to be
One fine day, you're gonna want me for your girl

The arms I long for, will open wide
And you'll be proud to have me, right by your side
One fine day, you're gonna want me for your girl

Though I know you're the kind of boy
Who only wants to run around
I'll keep waiting, and, someday darling
You'll come to me when you want to settle down,
Oh!

One fine day, we'll meet once more
And then you'll want the love you threw away before
One fine day, you're gonna want me for your girl

(BARITONE SAX SOLO)

One fine day, you're gonna want me for your girl

A NIGHT THIS SIDE OF DYING
by Carole King & David Palmer

I remember one young sister with rainbows in her eyes
Standing on the corner with the afternoon's supply
She spoke of other places, perhaps a better road
Then she asked if I could tell her where they
kept the mother lode

Like a night this side of dying
Her day's inside the dropper on the shelf
When she hears her lifeline crying
Not a thing you say can stop her
When she just can't stop herself

I remember that July, the panic and the heat
The savage shine of summer, the trychnine in the street
The way thay sold each other for a favor in glassine
The best of friends sold brothers for a
dime of quinine dreams

Like a night this side of dying
Her day's inside the dropper on the shelf
Like the shelter she's been buying
Not a thing I've got can save her
When she just can't save herself
She just can't save herself

All I want is a quiet place to live
Where I can enjoy the fruits of my labor
Read the paper
And not have to cry out loud

In my mind I can see it crystal clear
Sharing my dreams with the people around me
Now they surround me
And I'm just a part of the crowd

What will become of us
What about the children
What will they do to us next time around
What will the answer be
What will it mean to me
When are they gonna see we're underground
Here underground

And all I want is a quiet place to live
Where I can be free in a world of my making
Instead of taking
What they decided to give
I wouldn't want what they have - no
If I could only find
A quiet place to live

BACK TO CALIFORNIA
by Carole King

I've been feelin' down in Atlanta
Immobile in Alabam
I'd rather be in traction
Than to be here where I am
Oh you Georgia red clay
ANd green Virginia pines
I've got to make it home somehow
Before I lose my mind

CHORUS:
So, won't you carry me back to California
I've been on the road too long
Take me to the West Coast, daddy
And let me be where I belong

Hey now, Philly, you street city
Been down by the railroad track
I know that you can be a sweet city
But I won't soon be back
Haystack towns and somkestown cities
Are nothin' I want to see
My own house on high ground
Is the only place I wnat to be

(CHORUS)

Carole King

Green fields and rolling hills
Room enough to do what we will
Sweet dreams of yestertime are running though my mind
Of a place I left behind, been so long, I can't remember when
I've been to Canaan and I want to go back again

Been so long, I'm living till then
Cause I've been to Canaan and I won't rest until
I go back again. Though I'm content with myself
Sometimes I long to be somewhere else
I try to do what I can, but with our day to day demands
We all need a promised land.

Been so long, I can't remember when
I've been to Canaan and I want to go back again
Been so long, I'm living till then
'cause I've been to Canaan and I won't rest until
I go back again. Oh I want to be there in the wintertime
With a fireplace burning to warm me
And you to hold me when it's stormy

Been so long, I can't remember when
I've been to Canaan and I want to go back again
Been so long, I'm living till then.

BEING AT WAR WITH EACH OTHER
by Carole King

Everyone comes from one father, one mother
So why do we complicate our lives so much
By being at war with each other

Maybe I'm crazy, but I don't understand it
Why do we seem to vote to dig more holes
It's such a waste of a planet

There must be a reason that I can't see
Maybe somebody else knows better than me
All I know is

Everyone else is a sister or brother
So we've got to look around again and stop
Being at war with each other

(Words and music by Carole King)

If you read the papers you may see
History in the making
You'll read what they say life is all about
They say it's there for the taking
Yeah, but you should really check it out
If you want to know what's shaking
But don't tell me about the things you've heard
Maybe I'm wrong, but I want to believe in humanity

I know it's often true - sad to say
We have been unkind to one another
Tell me how many times has the golden rule
Been applied by man to his brother
I believe if I really looked at what's going on
I would lose faith I never could recover
So don't tell me about the things you've heard
Maybe I'm wrong, but I want to believe in humanity.

Maybe I'm living with my head in the sand.
I just want to see people giving.
I want to believe in my fellow man.
Yes, I want to believe.

BITTER WITH THE SWEET
by Carole King

SOmetimes I'm tired and I wonder
what's so all-fired important
About being someplace at some time
Oh, but I don't really mind
Cause I could be on Easy Street
and I know that
You've got to take the bitter with the sweet

I guess it gets to everyone,
you think you're not having fun
And you wonder what you're doing
playing the games you play
Hey, well, it's true what they say
If ou want to feel complete
don't you know that
You've got to take the bitter with the sweet

A friend of mine once told me
And I know he knows all about feelin' down
He said everything good in life
you've got to pay for
But feelin' good is waht you're
paving the way for

So, don't let it get you down, my friend
though it seems the blues will never end
On this you can depend, they always do
And I can tell you that it's true
it's a feeling that can't be beat
And you've got to do it
You've got to take the bitter with the sweet

BRIGHTER
by Carole King

We've been knowing each other
For many a year, it's true
And I can't think of anyone else
Can make me feel as good as you
Yeah, you make my day
A little bit brighter in every way

I'm so glad to have you
In this old troubled time
When true love and understanding, child
AARe so hard to find
Yes, you make my day
A little bit brighter every day

SOme people live in darkness
Their whole life through
I just know that I'd have been one of them
If it hadn't been for you

Now, sometimes I feel afraid
AS we all tend to do
But I think of the loving good times we've had
And I know we're gonna make it through
Cause you make my day
A little bit brighter in every way

Oh, brother, brother, brother
I know you've been layin back
a long time
But I love you like no other
Oh, brother of mine
I've been watching everything you do
And I've been wishing only good for you
All you've got to do is just want it to
And it's gonna - it's gonna come to you

Oh, brother, brother, brother
I know you've been hangin' on
a long time
But I love you like no other
Oh, brother of mine

You have always been so good to me
And though you didn't always talk to me
There wasn't much my lovin' eyes
could not see
and I don't believe you need
all your misery

Oh, brother, brother, brother
I know you've been hangin' on
a long time
You know I love you like no other
Oh, brother, brother, brother
Talkin' about you, brother

CAN'T YOU BE REAL
by Gerry Goffin & Carole King

Long ago we had our dreams
And that was all that we needed
Then all at once we got to see
The cycles we repeated

Baby can't you be real
I said Baby can't you be real?

Anyone can look into your eyes
And tell you what you're missin'
It's been told to you many times before
But you refuse to listen

Baby can't you be real?
Oh Baby can't you be real?
I said Baby can't you be real?
Baby can't you be real?

Meet me on the highway,
Meet me on the road,
As long as you've got to travel
Don't you want someone to help you carry your load?

CHANGE IN MIND, CHANGE OF HEART
by Carole King & David Palmer

You and I
We ought to try to face the fact
The things we thought had value
They've all been taken back
We've been losing track of time
But time's no easy mark
I can see you've got a change in mind
But what we need is a change of heart

I can see you've got a change in mind
But what we need is a change of heart

You and me
It seems that we've been holding out
The things that once held meaning
We're no longer sure about
We've been moving down the line
Losing what time we've got
And since you say you've had a change in mind
Why don't you try a little change of heart

I can see you've got a change in mind
But what we need is a change of heart

Now I'm not asking anymore of you
Than I ask of myself
Oh, but when I say we need a new approach
Well, I don't mean to someone else

Change, they say
It's the only way we grow
Oh, but the change we're showing
Let me tell you I just don't know
Seems to me that we could find some
other way to start
Beginning with a change, a change in mind
And ending with a change, a change of heart
Oh, begin it with a change, a change in mind
But end it with a change, a change of heart

Although you see the world
Different than me
Sometimes I can touch upon
The wonders that you see

And all the new colours
And pictures you've designed
Oh yes sweet darlin'
So glad you are a chi-ild of mine
Child of mine, chi-ild of mine
Oh yes sweet darlin'
So glad you are a chi-ild o-of mine

You don't need directions
You know which way to go
And I don't wanna hold you back
I just wanna watch you grow

You're the one who taught me-ee
You don't have to loo-ook behind
Oh yes sweet darlin'
So glad you are a child of mine
Child of mine, child of mine
Oh yes sweet darlin'
So glad you are a chi-ild of mine

Nobody's gonna kill your dreams
Or tell you how to li-ive your life
There'll always be people
To make it hard for a while
But you'll change their head
When they see you-ou smi-i-i-ile

The times you were born in
May not have been the best
But you can make the times to come
Better than the rest

I know you will be honest
If you can't a-always be kind
Oh yes sweet darlin'
So glad you are a child of mine
Child of mine, chi-ild of mine
Oh yes sweet darlin'
So glad you are a child of mine

Child of mine, chi-ild of mine
Oh yes sweet darlin'
So glad you are a chi-ild of mine

COME DOWN EASY
by Carole King & Toni Stern

Daytime run away
Nightimes seem so long
I'm all right in the sunshine
But the evenings let me down
It sure is good to see you now
I'm really glad you came
And I would tell you what I need
But it never feels the same

So come down easy
Let it come down slow
I've been alone so long
that I just don't know what to do
And I don't want to lose you

How my life slips away
How the time goes by
And I know I belong here
Yes, I know, though I don't know why

Riding along with a friend of mine
Got enough space, got enough time
Pieces of fruit and glasses of wine
And love comes in the summertime
And I don't want to lose you

God bless the children
God bless us all
We are the children of Paradise
On our own now since the fall
All the things that are worth having
Are never ours to keep
Still I can see today could be
A good time for you and me
If you come down easy...

Corazon--mi corazon
Corazon--mi corazon
Yo te quiero--mi corazon
Corazon--mi corazon
Yo te quiero--mi corazon
Corazon--mi corazon
Yo te quiero--mi corazon
Espero que tu me quieras tambien
Corazon

Corazon--mi Corazon
Corazon--mi Corazon
Ayudame--mi Corazon
Yo te quiero--mi Corazon
Ayudame, te quiero, te quiero
Corazon

They tell me
When I've got my life on my mind
They're sorry
But they can't do a thing about it till tomorrow

I tell them
Now I don't want a lot of your time
Maybe they listen
Oh, but what do they know of my pain and my sorrow

Oooh, what will it cost you
After how many tears I've cried
How much longer must I try

Directions presenting themselves every day
Are bypassed
'Cause of somebody else's foolish limitations

Rejections - many have I had in my way
But I go on, yes, I do now, and try to overcome the bad vibrations

Oooh, what does it get you
Stealing somebody else's pride
How much longer must I cry

I can see all the things of which I've dreamed
If I dream any longer-what will it mean

Reflections
Of all I have wanted so long
Still are with me
As I ask myself how much longer must I try

EVENTUALLY
by Gerry Goffin & Carole King

Was a time I remember
Hope flashed and went dim
When assassins just happened
To do the right people in
And love was a slogan coincidently
And they told us they'd work it out
eventually

In the swing of changing times
A man cried out for his
And every politician said
He was telling us like it is
Yes, they walked down the angry streets
To have themselves a look- see
And they told us they'd work it out
eventually

I see the choking cities
I see them tearing up this earth
I see people feeling
That their lives have little worth
And I know that the future
Depends on you and me
I hope we can work it out
eventually

I hope we can work it out
eventually
Hey maybe someday
eventually

FEELING SAD TONIGHT
by Carole King & Toni Stern

Feeling sad tonight
But everything's all right
And we'll find some other place to go
Feeling sad tonight
But everyhting's all right
Let's turn all our cares down low.

Come on, let's go downtown
It's like a trip back to the past
Running down the bright night
Drivind a little too fast
Oh, I'm counting on you
Sitting on a barstool
I'm a fool
Always feeling half right and half safe
Halfway dreaming of some safe place
away from school
Oh, I'm counting on you
Silly someitmes
I'm a fool.

Feeling sad tonight
But everything's all right
And we'll find some other place to go
Feeling sad tonight
But everyhting's all right
Let's turn all our cares down low.

There is a sapce between us
Which we cross
To touch each other softly
And so make up our loss
Some things take so long to learn
No matter how we try
Still we try and keep it open
And we get by

Feeling sad tonight
But everything's all right
And we'll find some other place to go
Feeling sad tonight
Feeling sad
Feeling so sad tonight

FERGUSON ROAD
by Gerry Goffin & Carole King

I'm gonna head on up to the old Ferguson Road
Stand beneath the trees and see how tall I am
Yes, I'm goona wade in a cold rocky stream
So I will be sure not to give a damn

No one ever loses anybody
But someitme it's so hard to get along
I don't want to hang on to anybody
So before you say you're leaving, i'll be gone

I'm gonna head on up to the old Ferguson Road
Find myself a spot where the sun shines through
I'll throw some old mattress in the back of my bus
And get a good head start on forgetting you

You know I've never known anybody
Who could ever make me feel this way
But no one gets to own anybody
You see, I have good reason when I say

I'm gonna head on up to the old Ferguson Road
Stand beneath the trees and see how tall I am
Yes, I'm goona wade in a cold rocky stream
So I will be sure not to give a damn

GOIN' BACK
by Gerry Goffin & Carole King

I think I'm going back
to the things I learned so well in my youth
I think I'm returning to
the days when I was young enough to know the truth

Now there are no games to only pass the time
No more electric trains, no more trees to climb
Thinking young and growing older is no sin
And I can play the game of life to win

I can recall a time
when I wasn't ashamed to reach out to a friend
Now I think I've got
a lot more than my toys to lend

Now there's much to do than watch my sailboat glide
And every day can be my magic carpet ride
A little bit of freedom is all we lack
So catch me if you can, I'm going back

A little bit of courage is all we lack
So catch me if you can, I'm going back
Going back

GOODBYE DON'T MEAN I'M GONE
by Carole King

Don't it seem like the time goes on
And here we are still carrying on
Reaching out for one another
Like a telephone call
from an old friend or a brother
And you are there to share this
song in the making
Goodbye don't mean I'm gone

I know how alone you are
When it's so hard to be so far
From the ones who mean the most to you
WHen you would so much rather
have them close to you
I hope you know you haven't been forsaken
Goodbye don't mean i'm gone

I'll never be what you think you see in me
If I can help you deal with what you see as real
That makes me glad to have known you

Missing you the way I do
You know I'd like to see more of you
But it's all I can do to be a mother
My baby is in one hand,
I've a pen in the other
You know my love is always there for the taking
And goodbye don't mean I'm gone

GOTTA GET THROUGH ANOTHER DAY
by Carole King

It's a gray, gray gloomy day
A strange and moody blues day
Gotta get through, gotta get through another day

Corn yellow silk and golden sunlight I remember
AS we walked together, you and I
Love like a sweet flaming glow inside
Now has been denied
And I've cried till I can't remember why

I Gotta get through, gotta get through some way
Gotta get through, gotta get through another day

Will Tuesday be "good news" day
Or another "paying dues" day
It's a strange and moody blues day anyway

Some say that time brings a better understanding
Of the ryme and reason to it all
Still the flame keeps burning through the lonely night
It's just not all right
ANd I wonder if I'll make it till you call

I Gotta get through, gotta get through some way
It's a gray, gray gloomy day,
A strange and moody blues day
Gotta get through, gotta get through another day

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

Haywood, where have you been, tell me now
Haywood, you been on the street again, I know, I know
Haywood, that man's not your friend
Haven't you had enough of the stuff
Oh, you know it's got to do you in

Remember John John
How mama stayed awake all night
The night they brought him in
She cried and said she always knew he was up to no good
It broke her heart the night he died
And she made me promise I'd stand by your side
And try to protect you from the evil in the neighborhood

Haywood, where have you been, tell me now
Haywood, you been on the street again, I know, I know
Haywood, hangin' out with your so-called friends
What makes you think that you'll be the one to put it down
Use your ears, use your eyes, just look around
Everyone's dying, everyone's going down

Just think of Vallorie
She's always been so good to you and you've never let her down
What about the life you planned
It can still come true, it's all up to you
I know it's hard to shake it
But you got to be a man and take it
I know this is no way to make it
It's not too late for you
Listen to me, Haywood

I CAN'T HEAR YOU NO MORE
By Gerry Goffin & Carole King

Here you are again
Tellin' me you're sorry, baby
Tellin' me you wanna come on back home
Where you belong

There you go again
Lyin' and alibiin'
Singin' that same old worn out song
Here it comes now

I can't hear you no more
I've heard it all before
You ain't a reachin' me no how
No way, no time until dooms day

I can't hear you no more
I can't hear you no more

You walked out on me
Once too often baby
And I can't take no more of your jive
And that's the truth

I ain't about to let you
Run me into the ground
I'm not gonna throw away my youth
no not hardly

I can't hear you no more
I've heard it all before
You ain't a reachin' me no how
No way, no time until dooms day

I can't hear you no more
I can't hear you no more

You ain't a reachin' me no how
No way, no time until dooms day
I can't hear you no more
I can't hear you no more

You gotta speak out louder
you gotta speak out louder
Cause I can't hear you no more
I can't hear you no more
Just a little bit louder

I THINK I CAN HEAR YOU
by Carole King

What must i do, how can I serve you
Is it true what I do is the way to be near you
I'm listening, though sometimes I can't hear you.

Looikng around fills me with wonder
At the way you can keep this old world running smoothly
Thinking of you always seems to soothe me

I know you're probably not a aman or a woman
or a time or a season
But I'm here and life is dear
And I guess that's a good enough reason to say

Just let me do what you put me here to
Let me be what you want me to be
And I hope it'll cheer you
I'm listening and I think I can hear you

Even when I thought I didn't believe
You believed in me
And everyone is a part of you
And anyone can know you
All they've got to do is be
I'm listening, and I think I can hear you.

It's going to 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 line, (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.

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.

Lift me, won't you lift me above the old routine;
Make it nice, play it clean jazzman.

When the jazzman's testifyin' a faithless man believes
he can sing you into paradise or bring you to your knees.
It's a gospel kind of feelin', a touch of Georgia slide,
a song of pure revival and a style that's sanctified.

Jazzman take my blues away; make my pain
the same as yours with every change you play.
Jazzman, oh jazzman.

When the jazzman's signifyin', and the band is windin' low.
It's the late night side of morning in the darkness of his soul.
He can fill a room with sadness as he fills his horn with tears.
He can cry like a fallen angel when risin' time is near.

Jazzman take my blues away; make my pain
the same as yours with every change you play.
Oh lift me, won't you lift me with ev'ry turn around.
Play it sweetly, take me down, oh jazzman.
