Baby come back, any kind of fool could see
There was something in everything about you
Baby come back, you can blame it all on me
I was wrong, and I just can't live without you

Baby Come Back

I'm goin' my way, your lover.
If you get cold I'll be your cover.
Don't have to worry `cause I'm here,
No need to suffer baby, I'm here.

Sam and Dave : Hold On I'm Comin


And I just gotta add:

Baby baby, sweet baby
I didn't mean to run you away
It was pride on my lips,
But not in my heart
To say the things that made you stray
But ah, babe
Hear me now
(hear me)
I don't know what I'm gonna do
(hear me)
Got to get you back somehow
(hear me now)
Oooh, take me back,
consider me please
If you walk in that door,
I can get up off my knees
I just been so blue

Aretha Franklin
Song title (Sweet Sweet Baby) Since You've Been Gone


(Sorry about adding all those lines, but, gosh, they just move along so dadburn well and longingly!)

Nail my shoes to the kitchen floor,
lace em up and lock the door,
....
For I can't help but wonder where i am bound.
where i am bound,
can't help but wonder where i am bound

Sometimes you wonder how much I care
I get so distracted runnin' nowhere
And I take for granted our love is secure
But if I started losin' you, one thing is sure

I'd be down on my knees
Ready to pray, darlin'
Down on my knees
Making you stay
I'd be beggin' you please
Don't take your love from me
I'd be down on my knees


Down on My Knees
~~Trisha Yearwood

I received a special delivery, I received a telegram,
then she called me long distance, she wanted to know,
Where was I am. For what? I don't know.
Man I just don't know, but I sitting here
wondering why did my Baby disappoint me so.


I Don't Know, - Rice Miller


POST ED: Darnit Angel: -Wonder > Knees.

The first time I crossed my heart I was by your bedside
down on my knees.
And I know the difference between I and you,
I have to beg you... help me, please.


Cross Your Heart -Sonny Boy

Are the stars out tonight?
I don’t know if it's cloudy or bright
’Cause I only have eyes for you,
...
You are here, so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
And I only have eyes for you

-- I Only Have Eyes For You, lyrics by Al Dubin, from the movie Dames (1934)

(makes a neat subject line, no?)

Tonight, tonight, won't be just any night,
Tonight
there will be no morning star
Tonight, tonight, I'll see my love tonight.
And for us, stars will stop where they are.
Today the minutes seem like hours,
The hours go so slowly,
and still the sky is light
Oh moon, grow bright,
And make this endless day endless night!
Tonight

"Tonight"
from West Side Story

(Keiva, sure does, and this one follows it perfectly!)

Everybody's a dreamer
Everybody's a star
Everybody's in show biz
Doesn't matter who you are
And those who are successful
Be always on your guard
Success walks hand in hand with failure
Along Hollywood Boulevard

Sittin' in the mornin' sun
I'll be sittin' when the evenin' come
Watching the ships roll in
And then I watch 'em roll away again, yeah

I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
Ooo, I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time

(Sittin' on) the Dock of the Bay, Otis Redding

Fight Song:

Roll Alabama, Crimson Tide
Go teach the Bulldogs to behave,
Send the yellow jackets to a watery grave.
And if the band starts to weaken, that's a shame,
Remember the battles we fought in Dixie's name.
Fight on, fight on, fight on, men,
Remember the Rose Bowl, we'll win then,
Go Alabama,
Dixie's football pride, Crimson Tide.


University of Alabama Fight Song - Composer Not known ( by me).
