Don't Ever Leave Me

Don't ever leave me
Don't say goodbye
If you do, I'll be the lonely one
I'll sit down & I will cry

Don't ever tell me
Don't say we're though
If you do, I'll be the lonely one
I'll sit down & I'll cry over you

No matter what you should say to me
No matter what you do
It would mean nothing at all to me
Because I am so in love with you
I love you

Don't ever change, dear
No, don't say we're through
If you do, I'll be the lonely one
& I'll sit down & I'll cry over you
Oh just sit down & cry over you
...& fade

Don't Gamble With Love

Don't gamble with love
It's only for fools
So play by the rules
Don't gamble with love

Oh don't gamble with love
You will lose it for sure
There'll be no cure
When you gamble with love

You can gamble your house, gamble your car
Gamble your hopes just as far
As the stars up above
But don't you gamble with love

(repeat verse 1)
(instrumental)
(repeat verse 1)

I'm Still Waiting Here For You

(You didn't even say goodbye)
So I sit here & I cry
There's nothing left for me to do
But I'm still waiting here for you

(You didn't even say you cared)
Now my love in you is shared
I don't know why you made me blue
But I'm still waiting here for you

I will walk through the storm
All my tears fell like the rain
I will long & I will mourn
Till you're back in my arms once again

(So darling, won't you hear my plea)
& please return your love to me
& then I will not be so blue
& I'll no longer wait for you

(So darling, won't you hear my plea) Darling, hear my plea
(Please return your love to me) Return your love to me
& I will not be so blue
& I'll no longer wait for you
(You didn't even say goodbye)

Love Land

I'm gonna find me a plot of ground
That nobody else has ever found
In the middle of the desert or the deep blue sea
It doesn't make any difference to me
It'll be my newfound home
A country all of its own
It'll even go down in history

CHORUS:
Oh oh oh
I'll build a Love Land for you & me
A Love Land for the world to see
No strings attached, no normalities
No cost in money, you can get it free
So pack your heart & hurry up
& see what I'm talkin' about
You'd better hurry up & get here soon
Before I'm all sold out

A true true love & honesty
That's gonna be my policy
We'll be members of the United Nations
Oh what we'll do to foreign relations
Everybody's gonna say
"Hip hip hip hooray
For Lovey-Lovey-Love, Love Land, USA!"

(chorus)

You'd better hurry up & get here soon
Before I'm all sold out

The Longest Day

Many men came here as soldiers
Many men will pass this way
Many mean will count the hours
As they live the longest day

Many men are tired & weary
Many men are here to stay
Many men won't see the sunset
When it ends the longest day

(x2):
The longest day, the longest day
This will be the longest day
Filled with hopes & filled with fears
Filled with blood & sweat & tears
Many men, the mighty thousands
Many men to victory
Marching on, right into battle
In the longest day in history
