well, if it old songs..
Believe me if all those
Endearing young charms
Which I gaze on so fondly today
Were to change by tomorrow
And fleet in my arms,
Like fairy gifts fading away
Though would'st still be adored
As this moment thou art
Let thy loveliness fade as it will
And around the dear ruin
Each wish of my heart
Would entwine itself
Verdantly still.
It is not while beauty
And youth are thine own
And thy cheeks
Unprofaned by a tear
That the ferver and faith
Of a soul can be known
To which time will but
Make thee more dear
No the heart that has truly loved
Never forgets
But as truly loves
On to the close
As the sunflower turns
On her god when he sets
The same look which
She'd turned when he rose.

Never knew I could feel like this
Like I've never seen the sky before
I want to vanish inside your kiss
Every day I love more and more
Listen to my heart, can you hear it sing
Telling me to give you everything
Seasons may change, winter to spring
But I love you until the end of time
Come what may
Come what may
I will love you
Until my dying day
Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Suddenly it moves with such a perfect grace
Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste
It all revolves around you
And there's no mountain too high
No river too wide
Sing out this song I'll be there by your side
Storm clouds may gather
And stars may collide
But I love you until the end of time
Oh, come what may, come what may
I will love you, I will love you
Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Lyrics: Elton John

What do you get when you fall in love ?
You only get a lot of pain and sorrow;
And so - at least until tomorrow - I'll
Never fall in love again.
Burt Bacharach, sung by Dusty Springfield

Don't interrupt the sorrow
Darn right
He says "We walked on the moon
You be polite."
Don't let up the sorrow
Death and birth and death and birth
He says "Bring that bottle kindly
And I'll pad your purse-
I've got a head full of quandary
And a mighty, mighty, thirst."
Don't Interrupt the Sorrow - Joni Mitchell

GIVE ME THAT WINE by Jon Hendricks
Well my wife got tired of me running around
So she tried to keep me at home
You know she bust my nose and hid my clothes
But I continued to roam
Until she finally hit my weakspot, threatened to throw my bottle out
From the basement to the rooftop everybody could hear me shout
Gimme that wine
Gimme that wine
Gimme that wine
You know I can't cut lose without my juice
Well one day when I was walking home to bed
A bandit jumped from the shadows, put a blackjack aside my head
That cat took my watch, my ring, my money and I did'nt make a sound
But when he reached in for my bottle Jim you could hear for blocks around
Gimme that wine
Gimme that wine
Gimme that wine
Beat my head out of shape but leave my grape
Well one day when I was laying down awful napping
When I woke up everything was burning
With a snap, and a crackle and a pop
You know the fireman chopped up my TV set and tore my apartment apart
But when he raised his axe on my bottle Jim I screamed with all my heart
Gimme that wine
Gimme that wine
Gimme that wine
Let me take one toast before I roast
Well one day when I was crossing the avenue
A big car knocked me down
When I was laying out down in the traffic
The crowd came from blocks around
You know the policeman were searchin' my pockets
Before they took me to the funeral parlour
When he reached in for my bottle Jim
I jumped straight up and commenced to holler
Gimme that wine
Gimme that wine
Gimme that wine
You know I can't get well without Muscatell
You know you can take all them Hollywood glamour girls
Rita Haywood, Bridgette Bardot, Lana Turner
Put them on a wall, put a gigantic book beside them
And tell me to take my choice
Well there be no doubt about the one I chose the minute I raise my voice
Gimme that wine
Gimme that wine
Gimme that wine
Well them chicks look fine but I love my wine
Now some folks like money, some like to dance and dine
But I be happy if you give me that wine
Can I have that bottle baby
Muscatell or half and half

We're a couple of swells
We stop at the best hotels
But we prefer the country far away from the city smells
We're a couple of sports
The pride of the tennis courts
In June, July and August we look cute when we're dressed in shorts
The Vanderbilts have asked us up for tea
We don't know how to get there, no sirree
No sirree...
We would ride up the avenue
but we haven't got the price
We would skate up the avenue
but there isn't any ice
We would ride on a bicycle
but we haven't got a bike
So we'll walk up the avenue
Yes we'll walk up the avenue
and to walk up the avenue's what we like
Wall Street bankers are we
With plenty of currency
We'd open up the safe but we forgot where we put the key
We're the favourite lads
Of girls in the picture ads
We'd like to tell who we kissed last night but we can't be cads
The Vanderbilts are waiting at the club
But how are we to get there, that's the rub
That's the rub...
We would sail up the avenue
but we haven't got a yacht
We would ride up the avenue
but the horse we had was shot
We would go on a trolleycar
but we haven't got the fare
So we'll walk up the avenue
Yes we'll walk up the avenue
And we'll walk up the avenue till we're there
[bridge]
We would swim up the avenue
but we haven't any lake
So we'll walk up the avenue
Yes we'll walk up the avenue
Yes a walk up the avenue's what we'll take!

SPECIAL: TODAY ONLY
TWO LIGHTNIN' RUBS FOR THE PRICE OF ONE
I met a pretty girl she was standing by a tub
Man she pulled me down in it and she begin to rub
It's mighty crazy, you know it's crazy
Just to keep on rubbing at that same ole thing.
I met a pretty girl all sharped out in blue
She saw me rubbin' so she started rubbin' too
It's mighty crazy, It's mighty crazy
Just to keep on rubbin' at that same ole thing.
Mama got the rub board, sister got the tub
They're going round doing the rub-de-rub
It's mighty crazy, it's Mighty crazy
Just to keep on rubbin' at that same ole thing
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Two old maids, they was layin' in a bed
One turned over and this is what she said
Ain't it crazy, ain't it crazy
Ain't it crazy one day, to keep on rubbin' that thing
Yeah mama killed a chicken, thought it was a duck
Put him on the table with his feet turned up
Ain't it crazy, ain't it crazy
Ain't it crazy one day, to keep on rubbin' that thing
There was two old maids, layin' in the sand
Each one wonderin' if the other was a man
Ain't it crazy, ain't it crazy
Ain't it crazy one day, to keep on rubbin' at that thing
IT"S MIGHTY CRAZY - LIGHTNIN' SLIM
AIN"T IT CRAZY - LIGHTIN' HOPKINS **

Crazy ... I'm crazy for feelin' so lonely
I'm crazy ... crazy for feelin' so blue
I knew you'd love me as long as you wanted,
And then someday, you'd leave me for somebody new
Worry ... why do I let myself worry?
Wonderin' ... what in the world did I do?
Oh, crazy ... for thinkin' that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for tryin', and crazy for cryin'
And I'm crazy for lovin' you
Crazy ... for thinkin' that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for tryin', and crazy for cryin'
And I'm crazy for lovin' you
"Crazy"
written by Willie Nelson
as sung by the inimitable Patsy Cline

Any w'on would have to be CRazY to follow the inimitable Patsy Cline, but I will...
I got a little girl she's my - Crazy Baby
The cutest in the world, she's my - Crazy Baby
I asked her for a date, she said, Crazy Baby
I said let's go make romance, ain't it - Crazy Baby
Everything is crazy when I'm with my Baby
Yes she's all I need
When I'm with my Baby everything is crazy
Yes indeed she's just my speed
I said how you like my car, she said Crazy Baby
Shining like a star ain't it Crazy Baby
I said Let's go to a dance, she said Crazy Baby
She put me in a trance she's my Crazy Baby
CRAZY BABY

The one time I saw my daddy dance
Watched him moving like a man in a trance
He brought it back from the war in France
Down on Copperline
Copperhead, Copper Beach,
Copper kettles sitting side by each
Copper core of a Georgia peach,
Down on Copperline
Copperline, James Taylor
