Cliff Richard - Mistletoe & Wine

Cliff Richard - Mistletoe & Wine

The child is a king
the caroller sing

The old is past
there's a new beginning.
Dreams of Santa
dreams of snow

Fingers numb
faces aglow
it's -

Christmas time
mistletoe and wine

Children singing Christian rhyme.
With logs on the fire and gifts on the tree

A time to rejoice in the good that we see.

A time for living
a time for believing

A time for trusting
no deceiving.
Love and laughter and joy ever after

Hours for the taking
just follow the master.

Christmas time
mistletoe and wine
...
Silent night
holy night -

It's a time for giving
a time for getting

A time for forgiving and for forgetting.
Christmas is love
Christmas is peace

A time for hating and fighting to cease.

Christmas time
mistletoe and wine
...
Christmas time
mistletoe and wine
...
Christmas time
mistletoe and wine
...

Cliff Richard - More to life

Cliff Richard - More to life

Free to run like the wind on a Summer day
Heart worn like a ring around the moon
And your eyes are ablaze
Reflections of time passing by
That remind you there's much more to life
Than standing still
Or running from place to place in the heat of the day
Just follow your heart and you'll see ....
There's more to life
There beyond the horizon there's another day
Far above the pain and fear you feel
The power and the peace
The greatest sensation of all
There is much more to life than you'll ever know
The rise and fall, there'll always be you and me
We're moving as one
So follow your heart and you'll see ....
There's more to life

We all have our dreams
We all have our visions
But time after time we're faced with decisions
Which road to follow?
How hard to fight?
Then you wake up and see
That there's much more to life

Free in acres of sky on a Summer day
Fire that burns with hope inside your heart
We are never apart
Reflections of time passing by
That remind you there's much more to life
So just follow your heart and you'll see
If you follow your heart you'll be free
'Cos there's more to life
More to life

Cliff Richard - Mr. businessman

Cliff Richard - Mr. businessman

Itemise the things you
covet as you squander
through your life.
Bigger cars, bigger
houses, term insurance
for your wife.
Tuesday evenings with your harlot,
and on Wednesdays it's
your sharlatan analyst,
he's high upon your list.
You got air conditioned
surmises and dark, disturbing doubts
about religion.
And you keep those cards
and letters going out.
And while your
secretary's tempting you
your morals are exepting
you from guilt and shame,
heaven knows
you're not to blame!

You better take care of
business, Mr. Businessman,
what's your plan?
Get down to business,
Mr. Businessman, if you can
before it's too late,
and they throw your life away.

Did you see your children
growing up today,
and did you hear the
music of their laughter
as they set about to play?
And did you smell the
fragrance of those roses
in your garden?
Did the morning sunlight
warm your soul and
brighten up your day?
Do you qualify to be
alive or is the limit
of your senses
so as only to survive?

Spending counterfeit
incentive, wasting
precious time and health.
Placing values on the
worthless, disregarding
priceless wealth.
Well, you can wheel and
deal the best of them
and steal it from the rest of them.
You know the score,
their ethics are a bore.
86 proof anesthetic crotches
brought you to the top
where the smiles are all synthetic
and the ulcers never stop
when they take that final inventory
yours will be the same
sad story everywhere -
noone will really care. Noone more lonely than
this rich important man.
Let's have your autograph
ENDORSE your epitaph!

You better take care...
................if you can!

Cliff Richard - Must be love

Cliff Richard - Must be love

Ooh I'd like to tell you something that's playing on my mind
I don't know how to tell you, so I'll take my time
I believe, I believe it's not just in my mind
Something I'm dreaming to take up the time
There's no escape - I don't want to be free
I believe that it must be love

Having trouble sleeping, you're always on my mind
When it comes to dreamin' I get left behind
I believe, I believe there's no doubt in my mind
There's no use pretending I'm hooked on your line
Words of the heart don't come easy to me
I believe that it must be love

You got me tied to a railroad track
Your love's the train - there's no turning it back
I've told you how I feel, I've laid it on the line
Got to take your love and make you feel that you're mine

I believe, I believe it's not just in my mind
Something I'm dreaming to take up the time
There's no escape - I don't want to be free
I believe that it must be love

It must be love
It must be love yeah etc..

Cliff Richard - My kinda life

Cliff Richard - My kinda life

Right from early days from the moment I was born
I would take my guitar in the early early mornin'
And go down to the fields and play-ay-ay

Sittin' down there in the long grass strummin'
I could see the people from miles around comin'
To hear me sing my music and play-ay-ay

Well that's been my kinda life my kinda life (yes and I like it)
Well that's been my kinda life my kinda life (yes and I like it)
Well that's been my kinda life yeah and I wouldn't spend it anywhere
Other than sittin' down somewhere playin' away my days

Well we made it to the city just me and my guitar
That was where I found a freaky little bar
I sat there on the stage and play-ay-ayed
Well up came a guy who said it wasn't plastic
He wanted me to sing away my life or something drastic
But all I wanna do is play-ay-ay

Well that's been my kinda life my kinda life (yes and I like it)
Well that's been my kinda life my kinda life (yes and I like it)
Well that's been my kinda life yeah and I wouldn't spend it anywhere
Other than sittin' down somewhere playin' away my days

Well fame and fortune I've let them pass me by
No one in the country could say I didn't try
To turn the people and to play-ay-ay
You can keep all the money and the places that go with it
Cos all I want is freedom and no cash could ever get it
All I wanna do is play-ay-ay

Well that's been my kinda life my kinda life (yes and I like it)
Well that's been my kinda life my kinda life (yes and I like it)
Well that's been my kinda life yeah and I wouldn't spend it anywhere
Other than sittin' down somewhere playin' away my days
