Wordwind ended thread 4 with this. Surely a record number of posts! My hat is off to Spartey, for coming up with so much fun!
Nicole: Some people wanna fill the world with silly love songs
Ewan: Well, what's wrong with that? I'd like to know, Cause, here I go again! Love lifts us up where we belong, Where eagles fly on a mountain high
Nicole: Love makes us act like we are fools, Throw our lives away, For one happy day
Ewan: We could be heroes, Just for one day
Nicole: You, you will be mean
Ewan: No, I won't
Nicole: And I... I'll drink all the time
Ewan: We should be lovers
Nicole: We can't do that
Ewan: We should be lovers, And that's a fact
Nicole: No, nothing will keep us together
Ewan: We could steal time, Just for one day
Both: We could be heroes, Forever and ever, We could be heroes, Forever and ever, We could be heroes
Ewan: Just because I will always love you
Nicole: I can't help loving you... How wonderful life is
Both: Now, you're in the world
Placido Domingo: La forza dell'amor (the power/force of Love)
ELEPHANT LOVE MEDLEY - performed by Ewan McGregor & Nicole Kidman in Moulin Rouge -- have no idea who wrote all these lyrics from different songs!

Morning has broken, like the first morning,
Blackbird has spoken, like the first bird.
Praise for the singing, praise for the morning,
Praise for them springing fresh from the word.
Morning Has Broken, Cat Stevens

Bye Bye Blackbird
Pick up all my care and woe
here i go singin' low
bye bye blackbird
Where somebody waits for me
sugar's sweet , so is he
bye bye blackbird
No one here can love or understand me
or what hard luck stories they all hand me
Make my bed and light the light
i'll arrive late tonight
blackbird, bye bye
Make my bed and light the light
i'll arrive late tonight
blackbird, bye bye
Recorded by many
But who originally wrote it? Beats me!

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to be free.
Blackbird fly Blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night.
"Blackbird"
~~The Beatles
And as for "Bye Bye Blackbird" I found this:
"1926 song written by Ray Henderson (melody) and Mort Dixon (lyrics)". Hope this answers that question DubDub!

Great! I get out of bed Sunday morning only to find that Wordwind and WO'N have cluckcolded my favorite bird - the blackbird. I follow them around in the winter and fall trying to understand their collective habits. Darn, if I think and think, and try to come up with another Blackbird song, one of you songsters will enter the theater via the side door. O' well, I could just go back to bed... But I won't... -  - Wake up. Wake up you sleepy head. Get up. Get up out of bedLook up. Look up the sun is redLive. Love. Laugh and be happy! When the red red robin comes bob bob bobing along, There'll be no more sobbin' when he starts singing That old, sweet song. I'm just a kid again, doing things I did again, Singing this song - When the red red robin starts bob bob bobing along. Recorded by many
But who originally wrote it? Beats me!I will Post edit the composer later. You do understand that it is a matter of expediency that I do so. - - Post edit: Why Angel, why me? Can't you go over and out-scoup somebody in "Poems"? AhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhHHH!! -  -

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 singing this song for you
"A Song For You"
~~The Carpenters
Milum, dear, I beat you by almost 9 minutes! And FYI "When the Red, Red Robin Comes Bob, Bob, Bobbin' Along" was written by Harry Woods. Luv ya hon! [kiss-e]

There are places I'll remember
all my life, though some have changed
some forever, not for better
some have gone and some remain
with lovers and friends I still can recall
some are dead and some are living
in my life I loved them all
But of all those friends and lovers
there is no one compared with you
and these memories lose their meaning
when I think of love as something new
Though I know I'll never lose affection
for people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
in my life I'll love you more
Though I know I'll never lose affection
for people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
in my life I'll love you more
In my life I'll love you more
In My Life, John Lennon

Another blackbird song for milum:
Sing a song of sixpence,
A pocket full of rye.
Four and twenty blackbirds
Baked in a pie.
When the pie was opened,
The birds began to sing.
Wasn't that a dainty dish
To set before the kind?
The king was in the counting house
Counting out his money.
The queen was in the parlor
Eating bread and honey.
The maid was in the garden
Hanging out the clothes.
Along came a blackbird
And pecked off her nose!
Mother Goose

A good bit of me keeps to the sky
On the back of a cloud
Unaware of how high
If I stay where I lay
I might drift away soon
From the pull of the sun
I am full of the moon
But baby your the one who grounds me
When the sounds of this world surround me
Your love it took a look and found me
Lost and on my own
Everywhere I Go - Shawn Mullins

Sister moon will be my guide
In your blue blue shadows I would hide
All good people asleep tonight
I'm all by myself in your silver light
I would gaze at your face the whole night through
I'd go out of my mind, but for you.

Hey Miss Sun
What could I say
I tried to hold you
But the moon got in the way
It won't be long before the morning has you back in my arms

Place: Park; Scene: Dark,
Silv'ry moon is shining thro'
the trees:
Cast: Two; Me, You.
Sound of kisses floating on
the breeze...
Act One, Begun,
Dialogue: "Where would you like to spoon?"
My cue, with you, underneath the silv'ry moon.
By the light of the silvery moon,
I want to spoon, to my honey I'll croon love's tune
Honeymoon keep a-shining in June,
Your silv'ry beams will bring love dreams
We'll be cuddling soon,
By the silvery moon!
By The Light Of The Silvery Moon

Players only love you when they're playing

When the rain washes you clean .. you'll know

Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain,
Telling me just what a fool I've been.
I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain,
And let me be alone again.
Now the only girl I've ever loved has gone away.
Looking for a brand new start!
But little does she know that when she left that day.
Along with her she took my heart.
Rain, please tell me, now does that seem fair
For her to steal my heart away when she don't care
I can't love another, when my heart's somewhere far away.
Rain, won't you tell her that I love her so
Please ask the sun to set her heart aglow
Rain in her heart and let the love we know start to grow.

Here comes the sun, here comes thesun,
And I say it's all right
Little darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter
Little darling, it feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right

Time,
Time,
Time, see what's become of me
While I looked around for my possibilities.
I was so hard to please.
Look around,
Leaves are brown,
And the sky is a hazy shade of winter.

Sending this one out to our good friend, Jackie
You've Got A Friend
Carole King
When you're down and troubled
and you need a helping hand
and nothing, whoa nothing is going right.
Close your eyes and think of me
and soon I will be there
to brighten up even your darkest nights.
You just call out my name,
and you know whereever I am
I'll come running, oh yeah baby
to see you again.
Winter, spring, summer, or fall,
all you have to do is call
and I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You've got a friend.
If the sky above you
should turn dark and full of clouds
and that old north wind should begin to blow
Keep your head together and call my name out loud
and soon I will be knocking upon your door.
You just call out my name and you know where ever I am
I'll come running to see you again.
Winter, spring, summer or fall
all you got to do is call
and I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Hey, ain't it good to know that you've got a friend?
People can be so cold.
They'll hurt you and desert you.
Well they'll take your soul if you let them.
Oh yeah, but don't you let them.
You just call out my name and you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again.
Oh babe, don't you know that,
Winter spring summer or fall,
Hey now, all you've got to do is call.
Lord, I'll be there, yes I will.
You've got a friend.
You've got a friend.
Ain't it good to know you've got a friend.
Ain't it good to know you've got a friend.
You've got a friend.

StormyWeather
Lyrics by: Ted Koehler (Theodore K.)
Music by: Harold Arlen (b. Hyman Arluck)
From the Show: Cotton Club Parade 1933 (S)
Lyrics:
Don't know why there's no sun up in the sky
Stormy weather
Since my gal and I ain't together
Keeps rainin' all the time
Life is bare, gloom and misery everywhere
Stormy weather
Just can't get my poor old self together
I'm weary all the time, the time
So weary all the time
When she went away, the blues walked in and they met me
If she stays away, that old rockin' chair's gonna get me
All I do is pray the Lord above will let me
Walk in the sun once more
Can't go on, everything I had is gone
Stormy weather
Since my gal and I ain't together
Keeps rainin' all the time
Keeps rainin' all the time

Wherever we go, whatever we do,
we're gonna go through it together.
We may not go far, but sure as a star,
wherever we are, it's together.
Wherever I go I know he goes.
Wherever I go I know she goes.
No fits, no fights, no feuds
and no egos, Amigos, together!
Through thick and through thin,
all out or all in.
And whether it's win, place or show.
With you for me and me for you,
we'll muddle through whatever we do.
Together, wherever we go.
Together, Wherever We Go from "Gypsy"
Jule Stein and Stephen Sondheim

Side By Side
Well we ain't got a barrel of money...
We may look ragged and funny...
But we're travelin' on...
Singing our song...
Side by side.
Through all kinds of weather...
What if the sky should fall?
As long as we're together,
It doesn't matter at all.
So we ain't got a barrel of money...
We may look ragged and funny...
But we're travelin' on...
Singing our song...
Side by side.
Through all kinds of weather...
Drought, flood, rain and snow,
We will be together...
So it just don't matter at all...
Oh we ain't got a barrel of money...
We may look ragged and funny...
But we're travelin' on...
Singing our song...
Side by side.
Don't know what's comin' tomorrow...
maybe it's trouble and sorrow...
but we'll travel the road...
sharin' our load...
side by side.
Oh we ain't got a barrel of money...
We may look ragged and funny...
But we're travelin' on...
Singing our song...
Side by side.
When they've all had their quarrels and parted...
we'll be the same as we started...
just travlin' along singin' a song...
side by side.
Stephen Sondheim
Side by Side
Edit: Slithy sent me a correction and said it would be ok to paste it here. So here's what Slithy wrote :
Thanks for posting the lyric(s) to Side by Side. I notice you attributed the song to Stephen Sondheim. As it happens, it was published in 1927, three years before SS was born, and was written by someone named Harry Woods. I used to listen to Kay Starr's version--wonderful, especially the part where she sang it as a duet with herself. It's easy to think this might be one of Sondheim's, since he did write a song called Side by Side by Side, and a bunch of his songs were put together in a revue called Side by Side by Sondheim.
Thanks, Slithy!

Girl, I've been watching you
From so far across the floor now baby
That's nothing new
I've watched you so many times before now baby
I see that look in your eyes
And what it's telling me
And you know girl that I'm not shy
I'm glad you picked up on my telepathy now baby
You read my mind
Girl I wanna shake you down
I could give you all the loving you need
Come on let me take you down
We'll go all the way to heaven
Oh, I've been missing you
And the way you make me feel inside
What can I do?
I can tell you got your pride now baby
Come to me, well, well
Let me ease your mind, oh baby
I got the remedy, yes I do
Now give me just a little time
You read my mind
Girl I wanna shake you down
I could give you all the loving you need
Come on let me take you down
We'll go all the way to heaven
Girl, I've been missing you
And you know it's funny
Every time I get to feeling this way
I wish I had you near me, i
I wanna reach out and touch you
I can't stop thinking of the things we do
The way you call me, baby, when I'm holding you
I shake and I shiver when I know you're near
Then you whisper in my ear, oh baby, well, well
You read my mind, you know you did
Girl I wanna shake you down
I could give you all the loving you need
Come on let me take you down
We'll go all the way to heaven
I love you then and I always will
Shake You Down-Gregory Abbott

(now I'm going by memory with this song. It is way old. I don't have a pick-up anymore and all I have left is a thick 45rpm record) Daddy dear, daddy dear Is the world really round? Tell me where is the bluebird of happiness found? If you look up above Is the sky really blue? And when you were a child did you cry like I do? Little child, little child Yes the world's really round. And the bluebird of happiness will surely be found. If you look up above Yes the sky's really blue And when I was a child I would cry like you do. - Little Child - Danny Kaye and Dena KayeI'll try to find a record player and correct the misremembered parts.

I found my thrill on Blueberry Hill
Oh Blueberry Hill when I found you
The moon stood still on Blueberry Hill
And lingered until my dreams came true
*Tho' wind in the willow played
Love's sweet melody
But all of those vows you made
Were never to be
Tho' we're apart, you're part of me still
For you were my thrill on Blueberry Hill
(Repeat *)

The Candy Man
Sammy Davis Jr.
Who can take a sunrise
Sprinkle it with dew
Cover it in chocolate
And a miracle or two
The candy man
The candy man can
The candy man can because he mixes it with love
And makes the world taste good
Who can take a rainbow
Wrap it in a sigh
Soak it in the sun
And make a strawberry lemon pie
The candy man
The candy man can
The candy man can because he mixes it with love
And makes the world taste good

Who can turn the world on with her smile
Who can take a nothing day
And suddenly make it all seem worthwhile
Well it’s you girl and you should know it
With each glance
and every little movement you show it
Love is all around no need to waste it
You can never tell why don’t you take it
You’re gonna make it after all
You’re gonna make it after all
- The Mary Tyler Moore - TV show song.

Hmm, being new here I may well have got the rules (amorphous as they appear) wrong, but I couldn't help thinking of this obscure little 80s tune...
Tay, tay, tay, tay - t-t-t-t-tay tay (or whatever)
Take or leave it
Somebody please believe us
We are never gonna be respectable...
Life may change
But you'll never change us
We are never gonna be respectable
sung by Mel and Kim, not sure if anyone would want to claim the dubious honour of composer!

Who are you
Hu hu hu hu
Who are you
Hu hu hu hu
There's a place where I know you walked
The love falls from the trees
My heart is like a broken cup
I only feel right on my knees
I spill out like a sewer hole
Yet still receive your kiss
How can I measure up to anyone new
After such a love as this
Who are you
Hu hu hu hu
Who are you
Hu hu hu hu
Who Are You?, The Who

Time In A Bottle
Words and Music by Jim Croce
Copyright © 1975 Jim Croce, Atlantic Records.
If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that I'd like to do
Is to save every day
Till Eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you
If I could make days last forever
If words could make wishes come true
I'd save every day like a treasure and then,
Again, I would spend them with you
But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do
Once you find them
I've looked around enough to know

The Great Pretender
Oh yes I'm the great pretender (ooh ooh)
Pretending I'm doing well (ooh ooh)
My need is such I pretend too much
I'm lonely but no one can tell
Oh yes I'm the great pretender (ooh ooh)
Adrift in a world of my own (ooh ooh)
I play the game but to my real shame
You've left me to dream all alone
Too real is this feeling of make believe
Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal
Ooh Ooh yes I'm the great pretender (ooh ooh)
Just laughing and gay like a clown (ooh ooh)
I seem to be what I'm not (you see)
I'm wearing my heart like a crown
Pretending that you're still around
Yeah ooh hoo
Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal
Oh yes I'm the great pretender
Just laughing and gay like a clown (ooh ooh)
I seem to be what I'm not you see
I'm wearing my heart like a crown
Pretending that you're
Pretending that you're still around
The Great Pretender, The Platters
The Only WO'N!

People see us everywhere
They think you really care
But myself I can't deceive
I know it's only make believe
IT'S ONLY MAKE BELIEVE, Conway Twitty

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
You been out ridin' fences for so long now
Oh, you're a hard one
I know that you got your reasons
These things that are pleasin' you
Can hurt you somehow
Desperado, The Eagles

The night was splendid
And the melody seemed to say
"Summer will pass away
Take your happiness while you may"
There 'neath the light of the moon
We sang a love song that ended too soon
The moon descended
And I found with the break of dawn
You and the song had gone
But the melody lingers on
-- The Song Is Ended (but the Melody Lingers On)
Irving Berlin (cross thread to "Bittersweet")

Pretend you're happy when you're blue
It isn't very hard to do
And you'll find happiness without an end
Whenever you pretend

Happiness is,
happiness is,
happiness is
Different things to different people
That's WHAT HAPPINESS IS
To a preacher, it's a prayer, prayer, prayer
To the Beatles, it's a yeah, yeah, yeah
To a golfer, it's a hole in one
To a father, it's a brand new son
To a night owl, it's a good day's sleep
To the Yankees, it's a four-game sweep
To the birdies, it's the sky above
But to my mind, it's the one I love
And that's what Happiness is.

HAPPINESS IS FINDING A PENCIL. PIZZA WITH SAUSAGE TELLING THE TIME. HAPPINESS IS LEARNING TO WHISTLE. TYING YOUR SHOE FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME. HAPPINESS IS PLAYING THE DRUM IN YOUR OWN SCHOOL BAND. AND HAPPINESS IS WALKING HAND IN HAND. HAPPINESS IS TWO KINDS OF ICE CREAM. KNOWING A SECRET. CLIMBING A TREE. HAPPINESS IS FIVE DIFFERENT CRAYONS. CATCHING A FIREFLY. SETTING HIM FREE. HAPPINESS IS BEING ALONE EVERY NOW AND THEN. AND HAPPINESS IS COMING HOME AGAIN. HAPPINESS IS MORNING AND EVENING, DAY TIME AND NIGHT TIME TOO. FOR HAPPINESS IS ANYONE AND ANYTHING AT ALL THAT'S LOVED BY YOU. HAPPINESS IS HAVING A SISTER. SHARING A SANDWICH. GETTING ALONG. HAPPINESS IS SINGING TOGETHER WHEN DAY IS THROUGH, AND HAPPINESS IS THOSE WHO SING WITH YOU. HAPPINESS IS MORNING AND EVENING, DAYTIME AND NIGHTTIME TOO. FOR HAPPINESS IS ANYONE AND ANYTHING AT ALL THAT'S LOVED BY YOU. Happiness, from You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown, music and lyrics by Clark Gesner © 1968 All rights reserved

I'm going to find myself a girl
Who can show me what laughter means
And we'll fill in the missing colors
In each other's paint-by-number dreams
And then we'll put out dark glasses on
And we'll make love until our strength is gone
And when the morning light comes streaming in
We'll get up and do it again
Get it up again
The Pretender - Jackson Browne
