Colo(u)r My World
(Trent/Tony Hatch)

You'll never see a dark cloud hanging 'round me
Now there is only blue sky to surround me
There's never been a gray day since you found me
Everything I touch is turning to gold

CHORUS:
So you can color my world with sunshine yellow each day
Oh you can color my world with happiness all the way
Just take the green from the grass & the blue from the sky up above
& if you color my world, just paint it with your love
Just color my world

Just as long as I know you're thinking of me
There'll be a rainbow always up above me
Since I found the one who really loves me
Everything I touch is turning to gold

(chorus)

Sunshine yellow, orange blossom
Laughing faces everywhere, yeah

(chorus)
Color my world, color my world

This Girl's In Love With You
(Hal David/Burt Bacharach)

You see, this girl, this girl's in love with you
Yes I'm in love; who looks at you the way I do?
When you smile, I can tell we know each other very well
How can I show you? I'm glad I got to know you

'Cause I've heard some talk; they say you think I'm fine
This girl's in love, & what I do to make you mine
Tell me now, is it so? Don't let me be the last to know
My hands are shaking; don't let my heart keep breaking
'Cause I need your love, I want your love
Say  you're in love, in love with this girl
If not, I'll just die

(instrumental)

Oh tell me now, is it so? Don't let me be the last to know
My hands are shaking; don't let my heart keep breaking
'Cause I need your love, I want your love
Say  you're in love, in love with this girl
If not, I'll just die

Who Am I
(Trent/Tony Hatch)

The buildings reach up to the sky
The traffic thunders on the busy street
Even slips beneath my feet
I walk alone & wonder, Who am I?

I close my eyes & I can fly
& I escape from all this wordly strife
Restricted by routine of life
But still I still can't discover, who am I?

(x2):
I long to wake up in the morning & find everything has changed
& all the people that I meet don't wear a frown
But every day is just the same: I'm chasing rainbows in the rain
All the dreams that I believe in let me down
Maybe I'm reaching far too high
For I have something else entirely free
The love of someone close to me
Unfettered by the world that hurries by
To question such good fortune, Who am I?

Happy Heart
(Rae/Last)

There's a certain sound, always follows me around
When you're close to me, you will hear it
It's the sound that lovers finally will discover
When there is no other for their lover

CHORUS:
It's my happy heart you hear, singing loud & singing clear
& it's all because you're near me, my love
Take my happy heart away; make me love you, make my day
In your arms I want to stay, oh my love

Feeling more & more, like I've never felt before
You have changed my life so completely
Music fills my soul now; I've lost all control now
I'm not half, I'm whole now, with your love

(chorus)

It's my happy heart
Can't you hear my happy heart
Oh oh please take my happy heart
Please take my happy heart
...& fade

Round Every Corner
(Tony Hatch)

(title x8)
Stop feelin' sad now; life ain't so bad now (title x2)
While you're debating, something's awaiting (title x2)
When Columbus sailed away to other shores
How could he imagined all that waited for him

(title x4)
Leave all the blue days, think about the new days (title x2)
Everything is yours now; open all the doors now (title x2)
Man will soon be standing on the moon above
Just imagine all the things that we'll discover

(title x4)
You've got to stop sittin' there on the shelf
You've got to stop lookin' out for yourself, yeah
(title x4)
What's the use in crying? Happiness is lying (title x2)
If you want a true love, look for a new love
Just forget the worries that you leave behind
There are many things to do, & you can find them

(repeat title & fade)
