Choosing - CLIFF RICHARD

Choosing - CLIFF RICHARD

I've tried to ignore
All the stench of your life
Only holding back
For my wife
Even she has seen
Your poisoned soul displayed
Seen each move you've made
Contaminate, degrade

Who's this juvenile?
Who's this infantile clown?
He's not ever worth
Knocking down
Stamp your tiny foot
My precious little lamb
Bleat ad nauseam
But I don't give a damn

Where to go? heart ever hounded
Coward? no - spirit confounded
Always hoping belief will bring release
God alone can give me peace
Watching me scream and hate
Only choosing when it's too late

May this imbecile
Cause your heart to feel joy
You did after all
Choose the toy
Do you now suppose
I'll leave with no reply?
Basic laws apply
An eye demands an eye

Where to go? heart ever hounded
Coward? no - spirit confounded
Always hoping belief will bring release
God alone can give peace
Watching me scream and hate
Only choosing when it's too late

Clear blue skies - CLIFF RICHARD

I got you
I got you
I got you
I got you and clear blue skies

Never cold
Never snow
Nobody nobody
Ever knows

I got you
I got you
I got you
I got you and clear blue skies

I see you and
I see you and
I see you and
I see you and clear blue skies

Keep me warm
Summer time
Nobody nobody
Be so kind

I got you
I got you
I got you
I got you and clear blue skies

Climbing up mount everest - CLIFF RICHARD

Climbing up mount everest - CLIFF RICHARD

Out of time
Out of luck
Thought I was just dreamin
Then I woke up
You said it was over
The end of the line
I'm telling everybody I'm fine
But I'm just

Climbing up mount everest
I swear it's like
Crawling from here to memphis
Knocked senseless, like
Digging a hole to china to find
You don't love me anymore

Night after night
I come home
Watch it on the news who else was overthrown
I don't understand it
As hard as I try
But I keep crossing over the great divide
And it's like

Climbing up mount everest
I swear it's like
Crawling from here to memphis
Knocked senseless, like
Digging a hole to china to find
You don't love me anymore

Shine the light
Ring the bell
I guess you don't love me
Well, well
I'll go on
I'll survive
I don't know how but I'll try

Congratulations - CLIFF RICHARD

Congratulations - CLIFF RICHARD

Congratulations
And celebrations
When i tell everyone that you're in love
With me
Congratulations
And jubilations
I want the world to know i'm happy as can be.

Who could believe that i could be happy and
Contented
I used to think that happiness hadn't been
Invented
But that was in the bad old days before
I met you
When i let you
Walk into my heart

Congratulations...

I was afraid that maybe you thought you
Were above me
That i was only fooling myself to think you
Loved me
But then tonight you said you couldn't live
Without me
That round about me
You wanted to stay

Congratulations...

Congratulations
And jubilations
I want the world to know i'm happy as can be
I want the world to know
I'm happy as can be

Constantly - CLIFF RICHARD

Constantly - CLIFF RICHARD

All day I'm walking in a dream
I think about you constantly
Just like an ever flowing stream
Your memory haunts me constantly

Shadows fall and I try to drive you from my mind
So you're no longer near to me
But my heart sees you there with me
Every sunset you share with me

The rain that patters through the trees reminds
me of you constantly
Your name is whispered by the breeze and love birds
bring your song to me

Just as sure as the stars keep burning
in the sky your love will stay a flame in me
A flame that burns so bright
not only through the night
but constantly

Just as sure as each star keeps burning
in the sky your love will stay a flame in me
A flame that burns so bright
not only through the night
but constantly

Though we may be far apart
You're constantly deep in my heart

’cos i love that rock’n’roll - CLIFF RICHARD

’cos i love that rock’n’roll - CLIFF RICHARD

Where has all that Rock'n'roll gone
Oh won't somebody tell me where?
'Cos it used to be when I was young
That you could hear them playing it everywhere
But now it seems they're all so hooked on fashion
The music's taken second place
Everyone it seems has one obsession
To beat the others in the race
And it just don't feel right to me
No no it just don't feel right to me

'Cos I love that Rock'n'roll too much
And I don't wanna see it ever waving goodbye
Yeah I love that Rock'n'roll too too much
And I couldn't bear to see it go by
Rock'n'roll you're too much to deny

Oh where has all that music gone
There must be some mistake
From something that was so much fun
They were burning bridges in their wake
O.K. everything has got to keep changing
I know it has to be that way
But isn't it too high a price we're paying
We're losing most of yesterday
And it just don't feel right to me

Count me out - CLIFF RICHARD

Count me out - CLIFF RICHARD

What kind of love is this that leaves me feeling cold
You look right through me what see nobody knows
You're in a world all by yourself - needing no one else
Feeling so secure

You're on the road to nowhere, left your past behind
What's to become of me, should feelings be denied
Another time another place, would I be the same old face
For you to have around

There's no way in, there's no way out I'm caught in the middle
Why must you leave my heart in doubt
We have a one way love that flows from me to you
There's nothing more for me to lose

We're through with talking now we know that it's the end
We've played our foolish games amd it's useless to pretend
It seems like only yesterday, that love had come to stay
How could we be so blind

There's no way in, there's no way out I'm caught in the middle
Why must you leave my heart in doubt
We have a one way love that flows from me to you
There's nothing more for me to lose

I don't know where your heart is or what's inside your head
If this is love you said it, if this is love forget it
If this is love then count me out

Daddy's Home - CLIFF RICHARD

Daddy's Home - CLIFF RICHARD

I've had nothing but bad luck
Since the day I saw the cat at my door
So I came here to you, sweet lady
Answering your mystical call
Crystal ball on the table
Showing the future, the past
Same cat with them evil eyes
And I knew it was a spell she'd cast.

*Chorus
She's just a devil woman
With evil on her mind
Beware the devil woman
She's gonna get you
She's just a devil woman
With evil on her mind
Beware the devil woman
She's gonna get you from behind.

Give me the ring on your finger
Let me see the lines of your hand
I can see me a tall dark stranger
Giving you what you hadn't planned
I drank the potion she offered me
I found myself on the floor
Then I looked in those big green eyes
And I wondered what I came there for.

(Repeat chorus)

Stay awake
Look out
If you're out on a moonlit night
Be careful of the neighbourhood strays
Of a lady with long black hair
Tryin' to win you with her feminine ways
Crystal ball on the table
Showing the future, the past
Same cat with them evil eyes
You'd better get out of there fast
She's just a devil woman
With evil on her mind
Beware the devil woman
She's gonna get you.

Dancing Shoes - CLIFF RICHARD

Dancing Shoes - CLIFF RICHARD

You must've heard of a-little Bo Peep
She was the gal with all the sheep
A woa one day it's a-sad to say
The sheep all ran away
She was lonely and she was blue
She was sad and a-crying too
So I told her what to do
I said "Put on your dancin' shoes"

Put on your dancing shoes
Put on your dancing shoes
Put on your dancing shoes
And dance away your blues

Mmm... Yeah.....

A friend of mine had an accident
Laughed so hard off a wall he went
A-Humpty Dumpty was his name
I guess you've all heard the same
He was lying on the ground
A-bits and pieces all around
So I told him what to do
I said "Put on your dancing shoes"

Put on your dancing shoes
Put on your dancing shoes
Put on your dancing shoes
And dance away your blues

Mmm... Yeah.....

I'm sure you know about Jack and Jill
They're the ones that went up the hill
A-Jack fell down and a-broke his crown
And Jill came tumbling after
What a noise their crying made
It was a-ringing through the glade
So I told them what to do
And I changed their tears to laughter

Put on your dancing shoes
Put on your dancing shoes
Put on your dancing shoes
And dance away your blues

Mmm put on your dancing shoes
Put on your dancing shoes
Put on your dancing shoes

The Day, I Met Marie - CLIFF RICHARD

The Day, I Met Marie - CLIFF RICHARD

Imagine a still summer's day
When nothing is moving,
Least of all me.
I lay on my back in the hay,
The warm sun was soothing.
It made me feel good ...

The day I met Marie.
The sound of her whisper "hello"
Came tiptoeing softly into my head.
I opened my eyes kinda slow,
And there she was smiling.
It made me feel good ...

The day I met Marie.
With laughing eyes,
She'd toss her hair and tantalize.
She came to touch me then she's gone,
Just like a summer breeze.

I remember her kiss,
So soft on my brow,
And the way that she said,
"Baby go to sleep now,
Baby go to sleep now."

I woke with the chill in the air,
The warm sun no longer hung in the sky.
I reached out but she was not there.
She'd gone where she came from,
But I still feel good,

To think I've known Marie.
With laughing eyes,
She'd toss her hair and tantalize.
She came to touch me then she's gone,
Just like a summer breeze.

Discovering - CLIFF RICHARD

Discovering - CLIFF RICHARD

Now you say you belong to me
Do you ever take the time to ask me
If I want to be more involved in your life

It's so sad
You don't realise
What I can do for you
It's so sad
You won't spend more time alone with me
When you could be discovering my love

Can't you see just how much you're hurting me
When you say one thing and then do another
I forgive you
But still you take me for granted

It's so sad
You don't realise
What I can do for you
It's so sad
You won't spend more time alone with me
When you could be discovering my love

You know there are times
When nothing else takes my place
And those times
Mean more to you than anything else

But still you need more of me
And I need more of you - give me more of you

It's so sad
You don't realise
What I can do for you
It's so sad
You won't spend more time alone with me
When you could be discovering my love

Don't forget to catch me - CLIFF RICHARD

Don't forget to catch me - CLIFF RICHARD

Don't forget to catch me when I fall in love with you
And don't forget to patch my heart, if it should break in two
It's just a dream, but a dream that might come true
Don't forget to catch me when I fall in love with you

Don't forget to be around in case I need you near
And don't forget to listen when I whisper in your ear
I think you know, that's the way it's gonna be
When I fall in love with you and you with me

Now we could be happy, you know I mean happy
Doing the things you do
I'd sit and talk with you
And maybe steal a little kiss or two from you

Don't forget to catch me when I fall in love with you
And don't forget to patch my heart, if it should break in two
It's just a dream, but a dream that might come true
Don't forget to catch me when I fall in love with you

I said, don't forget to catch me when I fall in love with you
Ooh, don't forget to catch me when I fall in love with you
I said, don't forget to catch me when I fall in love with you

Don't make my baby blue (the shadows) - CLIFF RICHARD

Don't make my baby blue (the shadows) - CLIFF RICHARD

I know that I can't keep her,
Now she's in love with you,
But I just wanna see, I won't be far away,
So don't make my baby blue.

I know your reputation,
They say you can be true,
But I'll be standing by, so you just better try and
Don't make my baby blue.

That little girl's an angel,
And it hurts me to set her free,
So you'd better take good care of her
'Cause she still means a world to me.........

I'm gonna step aside now,
just like she wants me to,
But even though I'm gone, I'll still be looking on, so
Don't make my baby blue......

(Instrumental Segue)

But even though I'm gone, I'll still be looking on, so
Don't make my baby blue......
Don't make my baby blue......
Don't make my baby blue......

Don't Talk To Him - CLIFF RICHARD

Don't Talk To Him - CLIFF RICHARD

If some guys tells you, I don't care
And tells you lies while I'm not there
Don't talk to him
If he tells you, I'm untrue
Then darling, here what you must do
Don't talk to him
And if he tells you I've been seen
Walking ‘round with Sue and Jean
He's lying again (lying again)
Do anything that you want to
But darling, this I beg of you
Don't talk to him

If you hear the words he has to say
He'll break your heart
Let your love for me prove strong
While we are far apart

So just remember what'd I say
(And) Trust in me while I'm away for I'll be true
And just remember my true love is
Brighter than the moon above for only you
And if this guy should try to say
My love for you is only plain
Nearly a wind (nearly a wind)
Just close your eyes and count to ten
And think of me again
But don't you talk to him

(instrumental break)

And if this guy should try to say
My love for you is only plain
Nearly a wind (nearly a wind)
Just close your eyes and count to ten
And think of me again
But don't you talk to him

If you hear the words he has to say
He'll break your heart
Let your love for me prove strong
While we are far apart

So just remember what'd I say
Trust in me while I'm away for I'll be true
And just remember my true love is
Brighter than the moon above for only you
And if this guy should try to say
My love for you is only plain
Nearly a wind (nearly a wind)
Just close your eyes, count to ten
And think of me again
But don't you talk to him

Don’t turn the light out - CLIFF RICHARD

Don’t turn the light out - CLIFF RICHARD

On my way home I met an
Old friend of mine
We walked and we talked an' shared
A bottle of wine
We started to dance,
my intentions were good
How could I know I'd be misunderstood

I promised to call before the weekend
Was thru
We'd all get together so she could
meet you
I was just being friendly, I met her
By chance
You gotta believe me - it's not a romance

Don't turn the light out, I'm starting to see
Don't turn the light out, you're getting to me
Don't turn the light out, we're burning so bright
Don't turn the light out.....don't turn out the light

You gotta see it from my point
Of view
The same situation could
Happen to you
I said it was over before she left
Town
I can't believe that you're putting me down


Aaahh, It would be easy if you'd lighten up
Do it to please me, enough is enough
All that we've been thru, how can you doubt
The ups an' the downs are what loving's about

Don't turn the light out, I'm starting to see
Don't turn the light out, you're getting to me
Don't turn the light out, we're burning so bright
Don't turn the light out.....don't turn out the light

Mmm, don't turn the light out
ooohhh, don't turn the light out

Don't turn the light out, I'm starting to see
Don't turn the light out, you're getting to me
Don't turn the light out, we're burning so bright
Don't turn the light out.....don't turn out the light

Do you wanna dance? - CLIFF RICHARD

Do you wanna dance? - CLIFF RICHARD

Well do you wanna dance and hold my hand?
Sqeeze me baby I'm your man
Oh baby, do you wanna dance?

Well do you wanna dance under the moonlight?
Squeeze and hug me all through the night
Oh baby, do you wanna dance?

Chorus
Do you do you do you do you wanna dance
Do you do you do you do you wanna dance
Do you do you do you do you wanna dance

Chorus

Well do you wanna dance to a rock'n'roll band?
Come on baby, give me your hand
Oh baby, do you wanna dance?

Well do you wanna dance under the moonlight?
Squeeze and hug me all through the night
Oh baby, do you wanna dance

Chorus

Dreaming - CLIFF RICHARD

Dreaming - CLIFF RICHARD

Four o'clock I've been walkin' all night
It's the time I always think of you
If you could only see through my eyes
Then you'd know just what I'm going through

Here am I I'm taking a chance
In running around with stars in my eyes
Here am I I'm looking for you
Wondering why do I feel so blue

I'm dreamin' dreamin' of me and you
I'm dreamin' dreamin' will see me through
Never letting chances pass me by
I'm gonna dream you right into my life
Yeah dream you right into my life
(Dreamin' dreamin' will see me through)
Woman you'd better believe I'm
(Dreamin' you into my life)

Five o'clock still walking around
I call you up but you just bring me down
I guess you'd say I'm getting nowhere
But in my dreams you always come around
Here am I I'm takin' a chance
I'm walking on air flyin' so high
Here am I I'm facing the truth
There's no other way I'll ever make you mine
I'm dreamin'
Dreamin' of me and you
Dreamin' dreamin' will see me through
Never letting chances pass me by
I'm gonna dream you right into my life
(Dreamin' dreamin' will see me through)
Woman you'd better believe that I'll be
(Dreamin' you into my life)

Woman you've got to believe me woman
Oh woman you've got to believe me woman
I'll be (dreamin' you into my life)
You've got to believe me woman
Woman oh woman you've got to believe me I'll be forever
(Dreamin' you into my life) Oh woman you got to believe me

Dream tomorrow - CLIFF RICHARD

Dream tomorrow - CLIFF RICHARD

I shall think it a dream tomorrow
I won't believe you returned
That once again I saw and touched you
And you're so unconserned, unconcerned

You must have known that your cruel silence
Would be so hard to bear
And yet you let me wait, you let me wait and
Wonder
Neither here nor there, here nor there

I came back with just one intention
For one last look, one last taste of you
Revenge on those who still despise me
And take my own life too

But there's a long and twisted journey
Between this callous thought and deed
And you're a sweeter way to give me
All the things I need

Two ambitions coincidind
Will only happen now and then
Never hope or dream tomorrow
Will restore your faith again
Never hope or dream tomorrow
Will restore your faith again

How I hope it's no dream tomorrow
But I'm scared the light will fade
And today will be a vague recollection
Just a fool's escapade, escapade

I never cared much about the future
Yesterday was always there
So when you give me hope, hope or a promise
It just isn't fair, isn't fair

Any plan, any calculation
Any plot or device at all
Runs into another's dream
Runs into a wall

No matter what premeditation
In our three score years and ten
There are only fractured moments
We'd want to live again

Two ambitions coinciding
Will only happen now and then
Never hope or dream tomorrow
Will restore your faith again
Never hope or dream tomorrow
Will restore you faith again
