A Song For You - Andy Williams

Words and music by leon russell

(peak billboard position # 82 in 1971)

I've been so many places in my life and time
I've sung a lot of songs, I've made some bad rhyme
I've acted out my love in stages
With ten thousand people watching
But we're alone now and I'm singin' this song for you

I know your image of me is what I hope to be
I've treated you unkindly but baby can't you see (baby can't you see now)
There's no one more important to me (baby)
Baby can't you please see through me
'cause we're alone now and I'm singin' this song for you

You taught me precious secrets of the truth, withholdin' nothin'
You came out in front and I was hiding
But now I'm so much better and if my words don't come together
Listen to the melody (listen to the melody) cause my love's in there hiding

I love you in a place where there's no space or time
I love you for my life, you are a friend of mine (you are a friend of mine)
And when my life is over, remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singin' this song for you
We were alone and I was singin' this song for you
We were alone and I was singin' this song, singin' this song for you

A Fool Never Learns - Andy Williams



A Fool Never Learns - Andy Williams

A fool never learns
To get away, just run away before his heart begins to break
A fool never learns
He'll wait around, just hang around to see how much his heart can take
A fool never learns
To some girls love is just a game
And some girls treat all fool the same
A fool never learns
And I'm gonna do a very foolish thing

I'm gonna stick by you
I'm a'gonna hang around, wait around
Hope she'll love me again some day
They say a broken heart don't mark the end of time
That there are lotsa girls who'd love to be just mine
But I don't believe that I could fall in love again
'cause I just can't remove the pain
A fool never learns
And I'm gonna do a very foolish thing

I'm gonna stick by you
I'm a'gonna hang around, wait around
Hope she'll love me again some day
They say a broken heart don't mark the end of time
That there are lotsa girls who'd love to be just mine
But I don't believe that I could fall in love again
'cause I just can't remove the pain
A fool never learns
And I'm gonna do a very foolish thing
And I'm gonna do a very foolish thing

And I'm gonna do a very foolish thing

Autumn Leaves - Andy Williams

Autumn Leaves - Andy Williams

English Lyrics by Johnny Mercer and Music by Joseph Kosma


The falling leaves drift by the window
The autumn leaves of red and gold
I see your lips, the summer kisses
The sunburned hand I used to hold

Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all, my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall


I see your lips, the summer kisses
The sunburned hand I used to hold

Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all, my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall

An Old Fashioned Love Song - Andy Williams

An Old Fashioned Love Song - Andy Williams

Just an old fashioned love song
Playin' on the radio
And wrapped around the music
Is the sound of someone
Promising they'll never go
You'll swear you've heard it before
As it slowly rambles on and on
No need in bringing 'em back
'Cause they've never really gone
Just an old fashioned love song
Comin' down in three part harmony
Just an old fashioned love song
One I'm sure they wrote for you and me
To weave our dreams upon
And listen to each evening
When the lights are low
To underscore our love affair
With tenderness and feelings
That we've come to know
You'll swear you've heard it before
As it slowly rambles on and on
No need in bringin' 'em back
'Cause they've never really gone
Just an old fashioned love song
Comin' down in three part harmony
Just an old fashioned love song
One I'm sure they wrote for you and me
Hit it!
Wooh! Just an old fashioned love song
Comin' down in three part harmony
Just an old fashioned love song
One I'm sure they wrote for you and me
Just an old fashioned love song
Comin' down in three part harmony
Just an old fashioned love song
One I'm sure they wrote for you and me (fade)

This land is mine, God gave this land to me
This brave and ancient land to me
And when the morning sun reveals her hills and plain
Then I see a land where children can run free

So take my hand and walk this land with me
And walk this lovely land with me
Though I am just a man, when you are by my side
With the help of God, I know I can be strong

Though I am just a man, when you are by my side
With the help of God, I know I can be strong

To make this land our home
If I must fight, I'll fight to make this land our own
Until I die, this land is mine

Moon River - Andy Williams



Moon River - Andy Williams

Moon river, wider than a mile
I'm crossing you in style some day
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker
Wherever you're goin', I'm goin' your way
Two drifters, off to see the world
There's such a lot of world to see
We're after the same rainbow's end, waitin' 'round the bend
My huckleberry friend, Moon River, and me

(Moon river, wider than a mile)
(I'm crossin' you in style some day)
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker
Wherever you're goin', I'm goin' your way

Two drifters, off to see the world
There's such a lot of world to see
We're after that same rainbow's end, waitin' 'round the bend
My huckleberry friend, Moon River, and me

(Moon River, Moon River)

Unchained Melody - Andy Williams



Unchained Melody - Andy Williams

Oh, my love, my darling,
I've hungered for your touch a long, lonely time,
Time goes by so slowly and time can do so much.
Are you still mine?
I need your love, I need your love, God speed your love to me.

Lonely rivers flow to the sea, to the sea
To the open arms of the sea
Lonely rivers sigh, "wait for me, wait for me"
"i'll be coming home, wait for me!"

Are you still mine?
I need your love, I need your love, God speed your love to me

Are You Sincere - Andy Williams



Are You Sincere - Andy Williams

Are you sincere when you say "i love you? "
Are you sincere when you say "i'll be true? "
Do you mean every word that my ears have heard?
I'd like to know which way to go, will our love grow?
Are you sincere? (are you sincere? )

Are you sincere when you say you miss me? (you miss me)
Are you sincere every time you kiss me? (you kiss me)
And are really mine every day, all the time?
I'd like to know which way to go, will our love grow?
Are you sincere? (are you sincere? )

Are really mine every day, all the time?
I'd like to know (I'd like to know)
Which way to go (which way to go)
Will our love grow ? (will our love grow? )
Are you sincere?

And Roses And Roses - Andy Williams

And Roses And Roses - Andy Williams

Words and Music by Ray Gilbert and Dorival Caymmi


Every day I sent another present
Just to let her know how very much I care
I wrote a little love note with each present
But it didn't seem to get me anywhere

My poor worried heart was almost certain
That this love affair would never be
Then I sent a dozen yellow roses and
From that moment she belonged to me

Roses, roses, roses, I thank all the roses that bloom in the spring
Love is a wonderful thing, the rest of my life I will bring her
Roses and roses and roses of love

Roses, roses, roses, I thank you for saying what I couldn't say
Oh, what a wonderful way to tell her "I love you" each day
With roses and roses and roses of love

Roses, roses, roses, I thank all the roses that bloom in the spring
Love is a wonderful thing, the rest of my life I will bring her
Roses and roses and roses of love
(Roses and roses and roses and roses of love)

FADE
Roses and roses and roses and roses of love

Almost There - Andy Williams



Almost There - Andy Williams

Words and Music by Jack Keller and Gloria Shayne
From the film "I'd Rather Be Rich" starring Andy Williams and Sandra Dee

Almost there, we're almost there
How wonderful, wonderful our love will be
For you, for me

We're almost there where we will share
A warm caress, tenderness, a dream come true
For me, for you

Love has waited such a long time
Now we're a kiss apart
Darling, this is the right time
To let the kisses start

For you're almost mine and soon we'll find
Our paradise, paradise so rare
Close your eyes for we're almost there

You're almost mine and soon we'll find
Our paradise, paradise so rare
Close your eyes, close your eyes
Close your eyes for we're almost there
Almo-o-ost there
A-a-almost there

You're just too good to be true - Andy Williams



You're just too good to be true - Andy Williams

You're just too good to be true
Can' t take my eyes off you
You'd be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much

At long last love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off you

Pardon the way that I stare
There's nothing else to compare
The sight of you leaves me weak
There are no words left to speak

And if you feel like I feel
Please let me know that it's real
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off you

I love you baby, and if it's quite alright
I need you baby to warm the lonely night
I love you baby
Trust in me when I say

Oh pretty baby, don't bring me down I pray
Oh pretty baby, now that I've found you stay
And let me love you baby
Let me love you

You're just too good to be true
Can' t take my eyes off you
You'd be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much

I love you baby, and if it's quite alright
I need you baby to warm the lonely night
I love you baby
Trust in me when I say

Oh pretty baby, don't bring me down I pray
Oh pretty baby, now that I've found you stay
And let me love you baby
Let me love you

Andy Williams - Love Story (Where Do I Begin)



Andy Williams - Love Story (Where Do I Begin)

Where do I begin
To tell the story of how great a love can be
The sweet love story that is older than the sea
The simple truth about the love she brings to me
Where do I start

With her first hello
She gave new meaning to this empty world of mine
There’d never be another love, another time
She came into my life and made the living fine
She fills my heart

She fills my heart with very special things
With angels’ songs , with wild imaginings
She fills my soul with so much love
That anywhere I go I’m never lonely
With her around, who could be lonely
I reach for her hand-it’s always there

How long does it last
Can love be measured by the hours in a day
I have no answers now but this much I can say
I know I’ll need her till the stars all burn away
And she’ll be there

How long does it last
Can love be measured by the hours in a day
I have no answers now but this much I can say
I know I’ll need her till the stars all burn away
And she’ll be there
