I've got a heart, that really needs somebody
Someone comes along, I take this heart of mine

I'll give it free now baby baby, I'll give it free
It Takes A Worried Man lyrics - Tom Jones
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
Let me tell you that it takes a worried man to sing a worried song
I'm worried now, I'm worried now, I'm worried now, I'm worried now now, baby
I'm worried now but I won't be worried long
Well I went across to river to lay me down to sleep
Let tell you that I went across to river to lay me down to sleep
I went across to river baby to lay me down to sleep
When I woke up, I woke up, I woke up, I woke up, I woke up, baby
And there were shackles around my feet
Let me tell you, baby
It takes a worried man to sing a little worried song
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
I'm worried now but I won't be worried long
I won't be worried long
Let me tell you something, baby
I won't be worried long
Skye Boat Song lyrics - Tom Jones
Speed bonnie boat like a bird on the wing,
Onward the sailors cry,
Carry the lad that is born to be King,
Over the sea to Skye.
Loud the winds howl, loud the winds roar,
Thunderclouds rend the air,
baffled our foes, stand on the shore,
follow they will not dare.
Speed bonnie boat like a bird on the wing,
Onward the sailors cry,
Carry the lad that is born to be King,
Over the sea to Skye.
[Instrumental]
Burned are our homes, Exile and death,
Scatter the loyal men,
yet oer the sword, cool in the sheath,
Charlie will come again.
Speed bonnie boat like a bird on the wing,
Onward the sailors cry,
Carry the lad that is born to be King,
Over the sea to Skye.
Over the sea to Skye.
Once Upon A Time lyrics - Tom Jones
Once upon a time there was an Eden,
woa
Once upon a time Adam and Eve,
A ...fell in love
Um...they fell in love
Like you and I
Like you and I
Once upon a time there was Delilah,
um
Once upon a time the devil and she
A...tempted man
Oh yes...a tempted man.
A..just like you
Are tempting me
Once upon a time
I knew just what to do
But that was long before
I met you, yes,
Once upon a time
I knew just what to do
But now I've fallen in love
Oh yes, I've fallen in love with you.
Memphis, Tennessee lyrics - Tom Jones
(originally by Chuck Berry)
Long distance information, give me Memphis Tennessee
Help me find the party trying to get in touch with me
She could not leave her number, but I know who placed the call
'Cause my uncle took the message and he wrote it on the wall
Help me, information, get in touch with my Marie
She's the only one who'd phone me here from Memphis Tennessee
Her home is on the south side, high up on a ridge
Just a half a mile from the Mississippi Bridge
Help me, information, more than that I cannot add
Only that I miss her and all the fun we had
But we were pulled apart because her mom did not agree
And tore apart our happy home in Memphis Tennessee
Last time I saw Marie she's waving me good-bye
With hurry home drops on her cheek that trickled from her eye
Marie is only six years old, information please
Try to put me through to her in Memphis Tennessee
Whatcha' Gonna Do lyrics - Tom Jones

It's Not Unusual lyrics - Tom Jones
It's not unusual to be loved by anyone
It's not unusual to have fun with anyone
But when I see you hanging about with anyone
It's not unusual to see me cry,
I wanna die
It's not unusual to go out at any time
But when I see you out and about it's such a crime
If you should ever wanna be loved by anyone,
It's not unusual it happens every day
No matter what you say
You'll find it happens all the time
Love will never do what you want it to
Why can't this crazy love be mine?
It's not unusual to be mad with anyone
It's not unusual to be sad with anyone
But if I ever find
That you've changed at anytime
It's not unusual to find that I'm in love with you
Autumn Leaves lyrics - Tom Jones
The falling leaves.... pass by my window
The autumn leaves...of red and gold
I see your lips...your summer kisses
The sunburned hands...I used to know
Ummm...since you went away
The days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
Ooooh, but I'll miss you most of all
My darling.... when autumn leaves...
start to fall
Ooooh...... I said I miss you most of all
My darling....when autumn leaves
start to fall...
The Rose - Version 2 lyrics - Tom Jones
My love said to me,
"A hero you'll be,
If you bring me the rose of love."
So, today I must go where the wide rivers flow
Down from the hills above.
From beginning to end,
Who will guide me, my friend,
For the difficult task that she chose
Will the sun and the rain,
From whose bosom I came,
Show me the way to The Rose
For my true love I yearn,
But I'll never, ever return,
Till I find where that red lady grows.
When i find her, I'll sing,
And the mission bells will ring
The news that I've captured The Rose.
If You Need Me lyrics - Tom Jones
If you need me, I want you to call me
I said, if you need me, need me
All you got to do is call me
Don't wait too long
If things go wrong
I'll be home, home
If you want me, send for me
I said if you want me, want me
All you got to do is send for me
Don't wait too long
Just pick up your phone
And I'll be home where I belong
People always said, darling
That I didn't mean you no good
That you would leave me someday
But way deep down in my heart
I know, I've got the best I could
And I know it won't be long
One of these days I'm gonna come
Walking through that door
And I can imagine in my mind
That these are the words you will be singing
I still love you
Always thinking of you
Yes, I still love you, I love you
Always thinking of you
Don't wait too long
I gotta, gotta pick up your phone
And I'll be home where I belong
Some Other Guy lyrics - Tom Jones
Ow! Some other guy, now, has taken my love away from me, oh now
Some other guy, now , has taken away my sweet desire, oh now
Some other guy, now, I just don't wanna hold my hand, oh now
I'm the lonely one as lonely as I can feel , all right
Some other guy is sippin' up the honey like a yellow dog, oh now
Some other guy, now , has taken my love just like I'm gone, oh now
Some other guy, now, has taken my love away from me, oh now
I'm the lonely one as lonely as I can feel, all right now, whoa whoa ho ho
Some other guy, is makin' me very very mad, oh now
Some other guy, now , is makin' my past seem oh so bad, oh now
Some other guy, now, she was the first girl I've ever had, oh now
I'm the lonely one as lonely as I can feel , all right now, whoa whoa ho ho
I'm a-talkin' to you, right now
Hey! Ow!
Endlessly lyrics - Tom Jones
Higher than the highest mountain
And deeper than the deepest sea
That's how I will love you, oh, darling, endlessly
Softer than the gentle breezes
And stronger than the wild oak tree
That's how I will hold you, oh, darling, endlessly
Oh, my love, you are my heaven
You are my kingdom, you are my crown
Oh, my love, you're all that I prayed for
You were made for these arms to surround
Faithful as a morning sunrise
And sacred as a love can be
That's how I will love you, oh darling, endlessly
Darling, endlessly
Darling, endlessly
It's Just A Matter Of Time lyrics - Tom Jones
Someday, some way, you'll realize that you've been blind
Yes, darling, you're going to need me again
It's just a matter of time
Go on, go on, until you reach the end of the line
But I know you'll pass my way again
It's just a matter of time
After I gave you everything I had You laughed and called me a clown
Remember, in your search for fortune and fame
What goes up must come down
I know, I know that one day you'll wake up and find
That my love was a true love
It's just a matter of time
Spanish Harlem lyrics - Tom Jones
(originally by Ben E. King)
There is a rose in Spanish Harlem
A red rose up in Spanish Harlem
It is a special one, it's never seen the sun
It only comes out when the moon is on the run And all the stars are gleaming
It's growing in the street right up through the concrete
But soft and sweet and dreamin'
There is a rose in Spanish Harlem
A red rose up in Spanish Harlem
With eyes as black as coal that look down in my soul
And starts a fire there and then I lose control I have to beg your pardon
I'm going to pick that rose and watch her as she grows in my garden
I'm going to pick that rose and watch her as she grows in my garden
There is a rose in Spanish Harlem
There is a rose in Spanish Harlem
When The World Was Beautiful lyrics - Tom Jones
I remember when the world was beautiful
And starlight filled the sky
When your eyes would smile at me
No man was happier than I
I remember when the world was beautiful
And each kiss was a dream
With you close, so close to my heart
There wasn't a cloud to be seen
But skies turned to gray
The day you went away
Stars lost all their charms
The day heaven left my arms
I remember when the world was beautiful
Paradise was at my door
But only if you return
Could the world be beautiful once more
16 Tons lyrics - Tom Jones
(originally by Merle Travis)
[1vsl]
Some people say a man is made out of mud well a poor man's made outta
muscle and blood..Muscle and blood and skin and bone..and a mind
that's weak..but a back thats strong.
[2vs]
And he was born one morning when the sun didn't shine..
He picked up his shovel and he went to the mines
He loaded 16 tons of that number 9 coal..Til-
the Straw boss said Well-uh b-less my soul!
[CHR]
You load 16 tons and whaddaya get??
another day older and deeper in dept
Saint Peter don'tcha call me 'Cause-
I can't go...I owe my soul to the Company
Store
[3vs]
So if you see him coming..you better step aside,-
Alot of men didn't and alot of men died.
He's got one fist of iron, and the other of
steel..And if the right one doesn't get you..
Then the night one will...
[CHR]
A Boy From Nowhere lyrics - Tom Jones
(from "Matador" soundtrack)
The nights grow cold
My search for gold is leading nowhere
Whichever lonely road I take
It seems to go nowhere
It's a fight to survive just until tomorrow
How can I display what I know I'm worthy of
When they turn me away
The doors are closed to such as I
A boy from nowhere
But not to those who merely buy the right to go where
They'll be met with respect, not humiliation
A man's place on earth
I have come to realize is decided by birth
So what's the future
No matter where I go
I will still belong in Andalusia
Where we don't know where
The next penny's coming from
Something's wrong
I'm bound to Spain, I won't remain
A boy from nowhere
There has to be a place for me
And I must go there
I don't fantasize, unlike a million others
Who must bow and scrape
For my one means of escape
Is to flourish a cape
I'll fight all odds
And fight the Gods if they oppose me
I have to win, I won't give in
No one who knows me would expect me to fail
For the want of trying
Not a man alive
Had to beg or steal or fight
More than me to survive
So what's the future
No matter where I go
I will still belong in Andalusia
Where good, honest men grow weak
And the rich grow strong
Something's wrong
Another dawn, another boy
A boy from nowhere
My destiny will guarantee
And I must go there
It's a fight to survive just until tomorrow
One more mouth to feed
And the way things are 'round here
That's the last thing they need
Ain't No Love lyrics - Tom Jones
There ain't no love like the love I got
There ain't no love at all like the love I got for you
And there ain't no pain, baby, like the pain I get
There ain't no pain at all, like I get when you're away
Nothing else could beat it, such a feeling, I'm reborn
Nothing seems to matter, now my love for you is strong
I'm finding my direction, but I'm losing my control
Love has taken over and you're in my very soul
There ain't no love at all like the love I got for you
There ain't no love at all like the love I got for you
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
It's true, what can I do? Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
There ain't no love like the love I got
I said there ain't no love at all like the love I got for you
Then there ain't no pain, baby, like the pain I get
There ain't no pain at all, like I get when you're away
Nothing else could beat it, such a feeling, I'm reborn
Nothing seems to matter, now my love for you is strong
There ain't no love at all like the love I got for you
There ain't no love at all, baby, like the love I got for you
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
It's true, what can I do?
Baby, baby, baby, there ain't no love at all like the love I got for you
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
All That I Need Is Some Time lyrics - Tom Jones
Girl, it hurts so bad
Cause there's something on my mind
Since we had that quarrel
And you walked out of my life
And you called and you said you couldn't live without me anymore
Baby, all that I need is some time
I've just got to get straight in my mind
And think it over, perhaps we'll find
It's not over
To think you said the things
You knew would surely break my heart
It's seems like only yesterday
That we swore we'd never part
I still can't believe you say that you don't love me anymore
Baby, all that I need is some time
I've just got to get straight in my mind
And I'll keep praying all of the time
I still love you
I still can't believe you'd ever say you don't love me anymore
Baby, all that I need is some time
I've just got to get straight in my mind
And I keep praying all of the time
I still love you
All that I need is some time
I've just got to get straight in my mind
And I'll keep praying all of the time
I still love you
I still love you
Any Day Now lyrics - Tom Jones
Any day now
I will hear you say
Goodbye my love
And you be on your way
And my wild beautiful bird
You will have flown
Any day now
Love will let me down
Any day now, when your restless eyes
Meet someone new and to my sad surprise
And the blue shadows will fall all over town, yeah
Any day now
Love will let me down
I know I shouldn't want to keep you
If you don't wanna stay, yeah
Yeah, until you've gone forever
I'll be holding on to my life
Holding you this way
I'm begging you to stay
Any day now when the clock strikes go
You'll call it off, oh yes, you will
And then my tears will flow
And the blue shadows will fall all over town
Any day now
Love will let me down
And you won't be around
Don't fly away, my beautiful bird
I don't want you to fly away
City Girl lyrics - Tom Jones
Living in a small town
Nothing much to do
All I do is walk around
Missing you
You've become a city girl
And lead the city life
Forgetting how you thrilled me
Through the night
City girl, city girl
What am I to do
It really is a pity girl
Knowing that we're through
City girl, now, city girl
Now come on home
It's me you have to pity girl
I'm all alone
I'm so, I'm so alone
I'm so alone
Living in a small town has left me with the blues
Knowing that I've got a lot, a lot to lose
You've become a city girl and left me with the past
I wonder how much longer it will last
City girl, city girl
I can't believe we're through
It would be such a pity girl
If I were losing you
City girl, now, city girl
Change your mind
It's me you have to pity girl
Please be kind
Oh, won't you please be kind
Yeah, yeah, now won't you be kind
You gotta be nice to me baby
Day By Day lyrics - Tom Jones
As my heart gets fonder, day by day
So my love gets stronger, day by day
Your love I'd leave behind if a better love I could find
But you're still on my mind, day by day
(Write to her) I know I should
(Speak to hear) I wish I could
But I'm misunderstood, day by day
Don't you ever leave me, this I say
Soon you're gonna need me, come what may
My love is deep inside, so don't you ever heart my pride
This love I cannot hide, day by day
(Write to her) I know I should
(Speak to hear) I wish I could
But I'm misunderstood, day by day
(Write to her) I know I should, baby
(Speak to hear) You know I wish I could
I'm misunderstood, day by day
Shake it, honey
I've got to get the pen and paper in my hand
But I wouldn't know what to talk about
You wouldn't listen anyway
Every Mile lyrics - Tom Jones
Every mile I made down
Every lonely highway
Each and every byway
You're still on my mind
And every step I take
Only leads to nowhere
No one that I know there
Nothing at home to find
Every hour away
Seems more like a day
Every day seems to last
Forever
And every night I dream
That we are back together
Vowing that we'll never
Be apart again
How real it all can seem
But then I awaken
With that same old aching
In my heart again
Crying, "I will come to you
If you every call
If I have to crawl
Every mile"
Fever lyrics - Tom Jones
Never know how much I love you
Never know how much I care
When you put your arms around me
I get a fever that's so hard to bear
You give me fever
When you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever in the morning
Fever all through the night
Sun lights up the daytime
And moon lights up the night
I light up when you call my name
And you know I'm gonna treat you right
You give me fever
When you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever in the morning
And fever all through the night
Everybody's got the fever
That is something you all know
Fever isn't such a new thing
Fever started long ago
Romeo loved Juliette
Juliette she felt the same
When he put his arms around her he said
"Julie, Baby , you're my flame"
Thou giveth fever
When we kisseth
Fever with thy flaming youth
Fever, I'm afire
Fever, yeah, I burn, forsooth
Captain Smith and Pocahontas had a very mad affair
When her daddy tried to kill him
She said
"Daddy, oh, don't you dare!"
He gives me fever
With his kisses
Fever when he holds me tight
Fever! I'm his misses
So, daddy, won't you treat him right?
Now you've listened to my story
Here's the point that I have made
Chicks were born to give you fever
Be it Fahrenheit or Centigrade
They give you fever
When you kiss them
Fever if you live and learn
Fever 'till you sizzle
What a lovely way to burn
What a lovely way to burn
What a lovely way to burn
What a lovely way to burn
For Once In My Life lyrics - Tom Jones
For once in my life I have someone who needs me
Someone I've needed so long
For once, unafraid, I can go where life leads me
And somehow I know I'll be strong
For once I can touch what my heart used to dream of long before I knew
Someone warm, like you would make my dream come true
For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once I have something I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore
For once I can say this is mine, you can take it
Long as I know I got love, I can make it
For once in my life I have someone who needs me
For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once I have something I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore
For once I can say this is mine, you can take it
Long as I know I got love, I can make it
For once I can feel that somebody's heard my plea
Yeah, for once in my life I have someone who needs me
Funny How Times Slips Away lyrics - Tom Jones
Well, hel-lo there-
My it's been a long, long time.
How'm I do-in?
Oh I guess that I'm doin' fine.
It's been so long now
And it seems that it was on-ly yes-ter-day.
Gee, ain't it funny
How time slips away.
How's your new love
I hope that he's doin' fine.
Heard you told him
Thaat you'd love him till the end of time.
Now, that's the same thing that you told me,
Seems like just the other day
Gee, ain't it funny how time slips away.
Gotta go now,
Guess I'll see you around,
Don't know when tho',
Never know when I'll be back in town.
But remember what I tell you
That in time you're gonna pay
And it's surprising how time slips away.
Ghosts Riders In The Sky lyrics - Tom Jones
An old cowpoke went ridin' out one dark and windy day,
Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way
When all at once a mighty herd of red eyed cows he saw
Come rushin' through the ragged skies and up a cloudy draw.
Yipie i ay Yipie i oh
Ghost riders in the sky
Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel
Their horns were black and shiny and their hot breath you could feel
A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky
He saw the riders coming hard... and he heard their mournful cry
Yipie i ay Yipie i oh
Ghost riders in the sky.
Their face is gaunt their eyes were blurred their shirts all soaked
with sweat
They're ridin' hard to catch that herd but they 'aint caught 'em yet
'cause they've got to ride forever in the range up in the sky
On horses snorting fire as they ride hard hear them cry
Yipie i ay Yipie i oh
Ghost riders in the sky.
The riders leaned on by him he heard one call his name
If you want to save your soul from hell a riding on our range
Then cow-boy change your ways today or with us you will ride
Tryin' to catch this devil herd.... a-cross these endless
skies.
Yipie i ay Yipie i oh
Ghost riders in the sky.
Ghost riders in the sky.
Ghost riders in the sky.
Golden Days lyrics - Tom Jones
Golden day, come and play
Bring your fair lady
Make a ring, come and sing
When you are ready
Kiss her hand, kiss her cheek
Tell her you love her
When it's your turn to speak
Give her your favor
Golden days, yesterdays
And I don't know why
I can't hear you
The dream has gone
But till I die
The golden day goes on
Catch a girl, kiss a girl
One day you'll marry
Smile in your mirror and
You will seem happy
Pick the chain, start again
From the beginning
When the rain goes away
Sun will be shining
Golden days, yesterdays
And I don't know why
I can't see you
The dream has gone
But till I die
The golden day goes on
Golden day, come and play
Bring your fair lady
Make a ring, come and sing
When you are ready
Kiss her hand, kiss her cheek
Tell her you love her
When it's your turn to speak
Give her your favor
Goodbye, God Bless You lyrics - Tom Jones
Last night when I got home
I found a message by the telephone
It said, "I'm sorry but you're on your own
Goodbye, God bless you, baby"
And last night, I think you know
I miss your smiling face, your soft hello
But I can't blame you if you had to go
Goodbye, God bless you, baby
Couldn't help but see your sad brown eyes
Monday morning smile is no disguise
And you just couldn't hide the way you felt inside
You wanted so to make it
But in the end you couldn't fake it
And last night when I got home
I found a message by the telephone
It said, "I'm sorry but you're on your own
Goodbye, God bless you, baby"
And last night, I think you know
I miss your smiling face, your soft hello
But I can't blame you if you had to go
Goodbye, God bless you, baby
Heaven knows you tried, you really tried
Did your level best to make it right
And you put up with all my cruel, senseless lies
And lately, girl, I knew it
And I could see you going through it
And last night when I got home
I found a message by the telephone
It said, "I'm sorry but you're on your own
Goodbye, God bless you, baby"
And last night, I think you know
I miss your smiling face, your soft hello
But I can't blame you if you had to go
Goodbye, God bless you, baby
Guess You Know Me Girl lyrics - Tom Jones
No one knows me better
Right down to the letter
You've got a picture of my soul
You know all about me
The first and the last to doubt
You know me girl
You know me girl
Sometimes God forsaken
Liberties I've taken
I confess and you forgive
You're the reason that I live
I guess you know me girl
Sunshine warmin' my soul
Livin' your own sweet way
Lovin' the night away
Hold on sunshine
Never let go, no, that would throw me girl
I need the tenderness you show me girl
I guess you know me girl
No one knows me better
Right down to the letter
You've got a picture of my soul
You know all about me
The first and the last to doubt
You know me girl
You know me girl
Through me share of losin'
Years of back door usin'
When our luck was runnin' low
If you cried I didn't know
You never let it show
I guess you know me girl
Sunshine warmin' my soul
Livin' your own sweet way
Lovin' the night away
Hold on sunshine
Never let go, no, that would throw me girl
I need the tenderness you show me girl
I guess you know me girl
I guess you know me girl
I Believe lyrics - Tom Jones
I believe for every drop of rain that falls
A flower grows,
I believe that somewhere in the darkest night
A candle glows,
I believe for everyone who goes astray,
Someone will come to show the way,
I believe, I believe.
I believe above the storm a smallest prayer
Will still be heard,
I believe that someone in the great somewhere
Hears every word,
Every time I hear a newborn baby cry,
Or touch a leaf, or see the sky,
Then I know why,
I believe.
Every time I hear a newborn baby cry,
Or touch a leaf, or see the sky,
Then I know why,
I believe.
I Can See Clearly Now lyrics - Tom Jones
I can see clearly now, the rain is gone
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
It's gonna be a bright (bright) bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day
There's gonna be a bright (bright) bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day
I think I can make it now, the rain is gone
All of the bad feelings have disappeared
Here is my rainbow I've been praying for
It's gonna be a bright (bright) bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day
Look all around, there's nothing but blue skies
Look straight ahead, there's nothing but blue skies
I can see clearly now, the rain has gone
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
It's gonna be a bright (bright) bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day
There's gonna be a bright (bright) bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day
There's got to be a bright (bright) bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day
I Couldn't Say Goodbye lyrics - Tom Jones
I watch you as you're sleeping
As I'm standing at the door
I don't want to let you go
But I can't hold on anymore
I just can't find the strength
To say I'm leaving you
It's over now, it's over now
And there's nothing I can do
I couldn't say goodbye
Couldn't stand the pain
Couldn't watch you cry
Knowing that your heart would break
So I let you sleep
Till the morning light
When you wake up and you read the note I write
Telling you that I
I couldn't say goodbye
I'm walking down this rainy street
Thinking you're awake by now
As you read my letter
And the tears fall from your eyes
Just know I tried to make it work
It just wasn't meant to be
I needed you, I needed you
But not the way you needed me
I couldn't say goodbye
Couldn't stand the pain
Couldn't watch you cry
Knowing that your heart would break
So I let you sleep
Till the morning light
When you wake up and you read the note I write
Telling you that I
I couldn't say goodbye
I didn't mean to hurt you
I didn't want to make you cry
It's over now, yes it's over now
I just couldn't say goodbye
I couldn't say goodbye
Couldn't stand the pain
Couldn't watch you cry
Knowing that your heart would break
So I let you sleep
Till the morning light
When you wake up and you read the note I write
Telling you that I
I couldn't say goodbye
I Got'cha Number lyrics - Tom Jones
I got your number
I know you're gonna be there when I call
I got your number, baby
I'd say you ain't got no choice at all
No, no, no, no...
I took your head from lonely,
Chased your pain away
I gave you more than loving
In my special way
I said
I shocked you out of boredom,
Made you a faithful wife
Gave you an education
On the facts of life
In you there's come a change
I'll be damned, I got you trained
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...
I got your number
I know you're gonna be there when I call
I got your number, sugar
I'd say you ain't got no choice at all
No, no, no, no, no...
Why listen to your girlfriends
When they can plainly see
That the boy that they call lover
Ain't half the man as me
I don't have to do nothing
Long as you're satisfied
Cause if you need more loving, baby
There's plenty more inside
Just tell them "I'm glad that he's my man"
Something they'll never understand
No, no, no...
I got your number
To know you're gonna be there when I call
I got your number, sugar
I'd say you ain't got no choice at all
No, no, no, no, no, no...
My hat goes off to you
For lovin' me the way you do
Even though I know, I know...
I got your number
I know you're gonna be there when I call
I got your number, baby
Said you ain't got no choice at all
No, no, no, no...
I got your number
I know you gonna be there when I call
I got your number...
I Was Born To Be Me lyrics - Tom Jones
(from "Matador" soundtrack)
Now it's clear, by accepting fate and staying here
I might as well be tied up, gagged and bound
Get away, I must go, that doesn't mean to say
I'll never need you more than I do now
But there's more to life than this
No doubt, there'll be no free handouts
But I have to find out
Where this world will lead
Some men are born to be free
Some men are handed a key
But I was born to be me
Playing with life and death is my destiny
What am I, if I miss this chance to do or die
I've nothing much to lose, much more to gain
I have pride, pride enough not to be satisfied
Till I am something more than just a name
I might even rise to fame
No doubt, I will cry my heart out
Long before I find out
What's in store for me
Some men are born to be free
Some men are handed a key
But I was born to be me
I leave my heart in charge of my destiny
I'll Never Fall In Love Again lyrics - Tom Jones
I've been in love so many times
Thought I knew the score
But now you've treated me so wrong
I can't take anymore
And it looks like
I'm never gonna fall in love again
Fall in love, I'm never gonna fall in love
I mean it
Fall in love again
All those things I heard about you
I thought they were only lies
But when I caught you in his arms
I just broke down and cried
And it looks like
I'm never gonna fall in love again
Fall in love, no, I'm never gonna fall in love
I mean it, I mean it
Fall in love again
I gave my heart so easily
I cast aside my pride
But when you fell for someone else, baby
I broke up all inside
And it looks like <sob>
I'm never gonna fall in love again
That's why I'm a-singin' it
Fall in love, no, I'm never gonna fall in love
Please don't make me
Fall in love again
I'm Coming Home lyrics - Tom Jones
I'm coming home to your loving heart
Till the one that I was
True way and broke apart
I want you I need you
A chance is all I'm asking now
I must get back to you so now
So I am coming home to you
'Cause I am nothing without you
May be you found somebody new
'Cause I'm still coming home to you
Please let me stay and forget your pride
Now my world is falling round
I got nowhere to hide
I want you I need you
I know it's true I made you cry
Then like a fool I said goodbye
Now I am coming home to you
Yes I am nothing without you
May be you found somebody new
But I'm still coming home to you
I'm Too Far Gone (To Turn Around) lyrics - Tom Jones
(Too far gone to turn around)
(Too far gone to turn around)
I'm feeling so sad and blue
Home ain't home without you
But there's nothing I can do to ease the pain
They say a man ain't supposed to cry
But here I am, with tears in my eyes
It looks like I've been out in the rain
I don't care how hard it may seem
I need you, girl of my dreams
I don't mind the hurt you give
Without your love, I don't want to live
I'm too far gone, girl, to turn around
I'm too far gone to turn around
(Too far gone)
(Too far gone)
I'm at the point of no return
I played with fire and I got burned
But I'll keep on trying, I won't give in
Ain't no sense in playing it cool
Deep in your heart, you know I'm a fool
But I'll be your fool until the end
My heart won't let me accept defeat
Cause with you, darling, my life's complete
My love grows stronger, day by day
There's nothing I can do or even say
I'm too far gone, girl, to turn around
I'm too far gone to turn around
(Too far gone)
I'm too far gone
(Too far gone)
I'm too far gone
Can't you see it when you look in my eyes
I'm too far gone
My heart won't let me accept defeat
Cause with you, darling, my life is complete
My love grows stronger, day by day
There's nothing I can do or even say
I'm too far gone, girl, to turn around
I'm too far gone to turn around
Listen to me, baby
I'm too far gone to turn around
I'm too far gone to turn around
If I Had You lyrics - Tom Jones
It's so hard, it's so hard
To be good, baby, if I had you
I'd get down on me knees
And I pray baby, if I had you
Such a state that I'm in
Every time you walk by
Am I late? Can I win?
Tell me, is it worth a try
All I need is a sign
That I do really stand a chance with you
That my world would be fine
Just to know, babe, if I had you
What a thrill to behold
Anytime, day or night
When I call on you, baby
Everything will be alright
I've had other women
Some that I admire
But no one can compare with you
They couldn't start the fire
It's so hard, it's so hard
To control the feeling that I get from you
When you walk, when you talk
About love, baby, if I had you
If you need some advice
Take a little tip from me
If it's love that you want
I can give you all you need
Because I've had other women
Some that I admire
But no one can compare with you
They couldn't start the fire
It's so hard, it's so hard
To control the feeling that I get from you
When you walk, when you talk
About love, baby, if I had you
If you need some advice
Take a little tip from me
If it's love that you want
I can give you all you need
It's hard
It's so hard
Can't you feel it baby
It's so hard
Well it's get hard
And it's getting a little bit harder baby
In the middle of the night
Everything will be alright
It Ain't Gonna Be That Way lyrics - Tom Jones
You won't even give me the time day
But you want me to give you my life
Well it ain't gonna be that way
Well it ain't gonna be that way, baby
Well it ain't gonna be that way with me
You want me to give you all my love
But you won't give your love in return, no
Well it ain't gonna be that way
Well it ain't gonna be that way, baby
Well it ain't gonna be that way with me
You walked around all over this town and you lied, yeah
But all you want to do is see me cry
I got news, little girl, that you ain't gonna win
Cause I'll survive to love again
You want me to give you all my love
But you won't give your love in return
Well it ain't gonna be that way
Well it ain't gonna be that way, baby
Well it ain't gonna be that way with me
It ain't gonna be that way
I won't let you do it to me girl
No no no no no no
It ain't gonna be that way
It's Been A Long, Long Time lyrics - Tom Jones
Kiss me once, then kiss me twice
Then kiss me once again.
It's been a long, long time.
Haven't felt like this, my dear
Since I can't remember when.
It's been a long, long time
You'll never know how many dreams
I've dreamed about you.
Or just how empty they all seemed without you.
So kiss me once, then kiss me twice
Then kiss me once again.
It's been a long, long time.
Ah, kiss me once, then kiss me twice
Then kiss me once again.
It's been a long time.
Haven't felt like this my dear
Since I can't remember when
It's been a long, long time.
Keep A Talkin' 'Bout Love lyrics - Tom Jones
People in the countryside
People in the darkness trying to hide
Keep talking about love
People with a lot of bread
People working for a meal and a bed
Keep talking about love
People on city streets
Smiling at the other people they meet
Keep talking about love
People on battlefields
People pumping gas and wiping windshields
Keep talking about love
People talking all across the nation
Though their number may not be too strong
They believe that love is our salvation
Everybody listen to their song
Think about the Jesus way
Maybe you'll be understanding why they
Keep talking about love
Think of what the world could be
Think about the changes coming if we
Keep talking about love
People talking all across the nation
Though their number may not be too strong
They believe that love is our salvation
Everybody listen to their song
Think about the Jesus way
Maybe you'll be understanding why they
Keep talking about love
Think of what this world could be
Think about the changes coming if we
Keep talking about love
People in the countryside
People in the darkness trying to hide
Keep talking about love
People with a lot of bread
People working for a meal and a bed
Keep talking about love
La La La (Just Having You Here) lyrics - Tom Jones
It's so cute, that sugar's sweet
But next to you, girl, it cannot compete
You're one in a million, so dog-gone rare
I feel good all over just having you here
The way I love you, God only knows
I love you, girl, from your head to your toes
You create such a sweet atmosphere
I feel good all over just having you here
And, girl, girl, girl
I want you to know one thing, baby
With all the joy you brought me
All I wanna do is sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
Finding diamonds is hard, it's true
But not as hard as finding someone like you
With you, no gem could ever compare
I feel good all over just having you here
You may not know it, but you're my dream come true
I love everything about you, you sweet thing you
All my life, with you I want to share
I feel good all over just having you here
And, girl, girl, girl
I want you to know one thing, baby
With all the joy you brought me
All I wanna do is sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, honey
And, girl, girl, girl
I want you to know one thing, woman
With all the joy you brought me
All I wanna do is sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
Love Love Love lyrics - Tom Jones
Love, love, love
Why'd you take so long to come to me, oh, baby
Love, love, love
Tell me where you're hiding from me all the time
Each time I try to find someone to take your place
It was all in vain, know their lips were never quite the same, no baby
When I was kissing someone new
Deep inside I was missing you
Oh, baby, you made me fall in love with you
Now I don't know just what I'm going to do
Oh, honey, look out into empty space
And I see is your sweet face
Love, love, love
You can't imagine what you do to me, oh, baby
Love, love, love
Every time you smile it goes through me all the time
Day by day, I'm falling more in love with you
And that's no lie, cross my heart and, honey, I hope to die, yeah, baby
Cause I'm not trying to mislead you
Believe me, darling, I really need you
Oh, baby, you made me fall in love with you
Now I don't know just what I'm going to do
Oh, baby, you made me fall in love with you
Now I don't know just what I'm going to do
Oh, sweet baby, I said that you made me fall in love with you
Now I don't know just what I'm going to do
Oh, baby, you made me fall in love with you
Now I don't know just what I'm going to do
Love Me Tonight lyrics - Tom Jones
I know that it's late and I really must leave you alone
But you're too good to hold that I feel such a long way from home
Yes I know that our love is too new, But I promise Its going to be true
Please let me stay and don't you send me away Oh no no
Aaahh
Tell me baby that you need me, say you'll never leave me
Love me tonight
Hold me now my heart is aching, until the dawn is breaking
Love me tonight
Something is burning inside, something that can't be denied
I can't let you out of my sight, darling
Love me tonight
Let me love you baby
Let me love you baby
Baby love me tonight
I've waited so long for the girl of my dreams to appear
And now I can hardly believe that you really are here
Here in my arms you belong, how can this feeling be wrong
Darling be kind for I'm out of my mind over you
Aaahh
Tell me baby that you need me, say you'll never leave me
Love me tonight
Baby now the pain is stronger, I can't wait a moment longer
Love me tonight
Something is burning inside, something that can't be denied
I can't let you out of my sight darling
Love me tonight
Let me love you baby
Let me love you baby
Baby love me tonight
Love me To ni-i-i-i-ght!
Never Give Away Love lyrics - Tom Jones
Never give away love without meaning it
It's a waste of time fooling around
Never give away love, watch what you do with it
Never give away love until you've found what you want
I can give you tender kisses
I can give a love that's true
Don't you know my only wishes
Are hoping they're returned by you
Never give your love away until you know
Never give away love until you're sure of it
That'll be the day you know you're mine
When you give away love, watch what you do with it
Only give your love to the loving kind
Make that you're mine
(Never give away love, give away love)
I can give you tender kisses
I will give a love that's true
Don't you know my only wishes
Are hoping they're returned by you
Never give your love away til you know
Never give away love until you're sure of it
That'll be the day when you know you're mine
When you give away love, watch what you do with it
Only give your love to the loving kind
Well, make sure that you're mine
Make sure that you're mine
(Never give away love, give away love)
Never give love away
(Never give away love, give away love)
You gotta make sure that you're mine
(Never give away love, give away love)
Never, never, never give your love away
No, no, no, no, no
Pledging My Love lyrics - Tom Jones
Forever, my darling
My love will be true
Always and forever
I love only you
Just promise me, darling
Your love in return
Let the fire in my soul
Forever burn
My heart's at your commanding
To keep, love, and to hold
Making you happy is my desire
Keeping you is goal
And I'll always love you
The rest of my days
I'll never part from you
And your loving ways
My heart's at your commanding
To keep, love, and to hold
Making you happy is my desire
Keeping you is goal
And I'll always love you
The rest of my days
I'll never part from you
And your loving ways
I'll place no one above you
And your loving ways
Promise Her Anything lyrics - Tom Jones
She doesn't really want things
That you can never get
Still every now and then
Maybe she'll complain a bit
Because she feels upset
She only wants you
To tell her that you love her
So if she wants you
To turn winter into Spring
Promise her anything
She's dreaming of
Promise her anything
She will be happy
If she only gets your love
Oh you can promise her the moon
When the sun is bright
Promise her the sun
When you're out of sight
Promise her the world
And promise her
Her every wish is your command
And you'll discover soon,
She doesn't want the moon
Just love will do
Promise her anything
But don't you ever
Let her get away from you
Satisfaction lyrics - Tom Jones
(originally by The Rolling Stones)
I can't get no - satisfaction
I can't get no - satisfaction
'Cause I try', and I try
Yes I try, I try
I can't get no satisfaction
I can't get no satisfaction
When I'm cruisin' in my car
And the man comes on the radio
He's tellin' me more and more
About some useless information
Supposed to fire my imagination
And I can 't get no satisfaction
Oh, no, no, no
Hey, hey, hev
Ooh baby tell me what I say
Oh well when I'm watching my TV
And this man comes on and tells me
What drink would be good for me
But he can't be a man, cause' he doesn't smoke
The same cigars as me
And I can't get no satisfaction
No, no, no
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Tell me what I say
When I'm ridin' round the world
And I'm doin' this and I'm signin' that
And I'm tryin' to meet some girl
Who tells me baby, baby come back maybe next week
Can't you see I'm on a losing streak
I can't get no satisfaction
Oh, no, no, no,
Hey, hey, hey
Baby tell me what I say
Come here baby
What do ya mean
You don't know what will satisfy me
Yes you do
I've been all around the world
Looking for some girl
And I can't get no satisfaction
And I've got to have some satisfaction
Smile lyrics - Tom Jones
Smile away your blues
And let the sun come shining through
There's no need to cry
Let the clouds roll on by
All you gotta do is smile
And the world smiles, too
Smile and you will find
You'll leave your troubles way behind
Laugh, and you will see
You could be happy with me
All you gotta do is smile
And the world smiles, too
Laugh with me and I'll show you just how
I love you
Smile, pretty baby, do
Smile, and let the whole world smile with you
Smile away your blues
And let the sun come shining through
There's no need to cry
Just let the clouds roll on by
All you gotta do is smile
And the world smiles, too
All you gotta do is smile
And the world smiles, too
All you gotta do is smile
And the world smiles, too
All you gotta do is smile
And the world smiles, too
Starting Over lyrics - Tom Jones
Our life together is so precious together
We have grown, we have grown
Although our love is still special
Let's take a chance and fly away somewhere alone
It's been too long since we took the time
No-one's to blame, I know time flies so quickly
But when I see you darling
It's like we both are falling in love again
It'll be just like starting over, starting over
Everyday we used to make it love
Why can't we be making love nice and easy
It's time to spread our wings and fly
Don't let another day go by my love
It'll be just like starting over, starting over
Why don't we take off alone
Take a trip somewhere far, far away
We'll be together all alone again
Like we used to in the early days
Well, well, well darling
It's been too long since we took the time
No-one's to blame, I know time flies so quickly
But when I see you darling
It's like we both are falling in love again
It'll be just like starting over, starting over
Our life together is so precious together
We have grown, we have grown
Although our love is still special
Let's take a chance and fly away somewhere
Starting over...
Thank the Lord lyrics - Tom Jones
Breaking my back to earn my daily bread
Trying to keep a roof above my head
Lord, my life has not been easy
And I don't know what to do
If she wasn't there to please me
When my daily work is through
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord
For the love of a wonderful womanly woman like you
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord
For the love of a wonderful womanly woman like you
So what if I had some rain
So what if I knew some pain
You know that I can't complain
As long as I've got you
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord
For the love of a wonderful womanly woman like you
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord
For the love of a wonderful womanly woman like you
Thank the Lord for giving me
Someone who believes in me
And, girl, I wanna thank you too
For each little thing that you do
To help me see it through
Someday I'll build a better life somehow
And we'll forget the lean times we know now
I won't always be a loser
They can't keep a good man down
And my source of inspiration
Will be knowing she's around
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord
For the love of a wonderful womanly woman like you
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord
For the love of a wonderful womanly woman like you
So what if I had some rain
So what if I knew some pain
You know that I can't complain
As long as I've got you
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord
For the love of a wonderful womanly woman like you
Thank the Lord, thank the Lord
For the love of a wonderful womanly woman like you
Thank the Lord for giving me
Someone who'll believe in me
Girl, I wanna thank you too
For each little thing that you do
The Man Who Knows Too Much lyrics - Tom Jones
I was a poor misguided fool
Lived alone and played it cool
I would only take a woman if the time was right
Or when the lamp burning low
As I felt the feeling grow
When you put your arms around me, I could see the light all night
Yes I'm the man who knows too much
I couldn't live without your touch
Holding your hand means something different every day
I didn't know how love could be
You came along and set me free
All I can give, I'll give to you forever
What more can I say?
You taught me how
You told me why
You showed me where
Call any time, I'll be there
Yes I'm the man who knows too much
I couldn't live without your touch
I've got to have your loving all the time
I never understood
How a kiss could feel so good
Didn't realize your smile would make my dreams come true
I'd do anything I can
You are everything I am
When you are gone, my life depends on you, that's right
Yes I'm your man who knows too much
I couldn't live without your touch
Holding your hand means something different every day
I didn't know how love can be
You came along and set me free
All I can give, I'll give to you forever
What more can I say?
You taught me how
You told me why
You showed me where
Call any time, I'll be there
Yes I'm the man who knows too much
I couldn't live without your touch
I've got to have your loving all the time
Yes I'm the man who knows too much
I could not live without your touch
Holding your hand means something different every day
I didn't know how love could be
You came along and set me free
All I can give, I'll give to you forever
What more can I say?
You taught me how
You told me why
You showed me where
Call any time, I'll be there
Yes I'm the man who knows too much
I couldn't live without your touch
And I've got to have your loving all the time
Yes I'm the man who knows too much
I could not live without your touch
Holding your hand means something different every single day
The Sun Died lyrics - Tom Jones
The sun died
The sun died with my love
When you left me blue
The summer died, too
My love and the sun
It's the same
The sun died
The sun died with my love
And I'm so alone
And yet life goes
But for me there can be
No more dawn
Yesterday
The coldest winter was like spring
I thought my heart would always sing
And that our love would never end
But that was yesterday
The sun died
The sun died with my love
And life's all in vain
In my heart, there's rain
And I know that my soul
Won't stop crying
Yesterday
When I was looking in your eyes
I thought that it was sweet paradise
But love completely changed my life
But that was yesterday
The sun died
The sun died with my love
When you left me blue
The summer died, too
My love and the sun
It's the same
My love and the sun
It's the same
The Vaults Of Heaven lyrics - Tom Jones
The keys to the vaults of Heaven
May be buried somewhere in a prayer
The keys to the vaults of Heaven
May be heavy or lighter than air
Open up the vaults
Open up the vaults
We've got to find the keys
The nights have been growing darker
Even darker now than sin
We'll open the vaults of Heaven
The treasures are there within
The keys to the vaults of Heaven
May be seen in a pure child's eyes
The keys to the vaults of Heaven
May be heard in our desperate cries
Open up the vaults
Open up the vaults
We've got to find the keys
The nights have been growing darker
Even darker now than sin. Darker than sin
We'll open the vaults of Heaven, Heaven
The glories are there within
The keys to the vaults of Heaven Heaven!
May be buried somewhere in a prayer
Somewhere in a prayer!
The keys to the vaults of Heaven Heaven!
May be heavy or lighter than air
We've got to find the keys
We've got to find the keys
To open up the vaults
The vaults of Heaven!
The nights have been growing darker, growing darker
They're so much darker now than sin
Darker than sin
We'll open the vaults of Heaven
The answers are there within
We've got to find the keys
We've got to find the keys
To open up the vaults
Open up!
The nights have been growing darker, growing darker
They're so much darker now than sin
Darker than sin
We'll open the vaults of Heaven
The answers are there within
The Young New Mexican lyrics - Tom Jones
In a town near Albequerqe
Lived a most concerned young boy
He said lately I have noticed
Folks don't live with peace and joy
With frowns and worry on their faces
They're lost and don't know where to go
He said I'll get the people straightened
By putting on a puppet show
The young New Mexican puppeteer
He saw the people all lived in fear
He thought that maybe they'd listen to
A puppet telling them what to do
You know he got some string and he got some wood
He did some carving and he was good
And folks came running so they could hear
The young New Mexican puppeteer
First he carved out young Abe Lincoln
Abe will teach 'em civil rights
Then a king named Martin Luther
So they'd recall his peacefull fight
Old Mark Twain, his wit and wisdom
Will surely show them life is fun
But he smiled with satisfaction
When the prince of peace was done
The young New Mexican puppeteer
He saw the people all lived in fear
He thought that maybe they'd listen to
A puppet telling them what to do
You know he got some string and he got some wood
He did some carving and he was good
And folks came running so they could hear
The young New Mexican puppeteer
Now his puppet shows were clever
And he made the people laugh
When he got across the message
To walk along lifes open path
They built him his own puppet theatre
Decked out with spotlights yellow and red
And then they wrote him up in all the papers
And this is what the story said
It said...
The young New Mexican puppeteer
He saw the people all lived in fear
He thought that maybe they would listen to
A puppet telling them what to do
You know he got some string and he got some wood
He did some carving and he was good
And folks came running so they could hear
The young New Mexican puppeteer

Things I Wanna Do lyrics - Tom Jones
If I could do the things I wanna do
I would make you run to me
How I'd love to be
The master of you
If I could do the things I wanna do
In my arms I'd make you stay
Close to me night and day
That's what I'd do
Forever and ever
I'd feel like a king, but I wouldn't be all alone, no
I'd make you a queen and sit on a golden throne
And I would be beside you
If I could do the things I wanna do, I wanna do
If I could do the things I wanna do
I would make you run to me
How I'd love to be
The master of you
If I could do the things I wanna do
In arms I'd make you stay
Close to me night and day
That's what I'd do
Forever and ever
I'd feel like a king, but I wouldn't be all alone, no
I'd make you a queen and sit on a golden throne
And I would be beside you
If I could do the things I wanna do, I wanna do
This And That lyrics - Tom Jones
I tried to do a little bit of big time moving
I played the clubs and stayed out late at night
I tried to lose the memory of a lover
When someone said, 'Two wrongs don't make a right'
Well, I had too much of this and that
And this and that is no good
I said I had too much of this and that
And this and that is no good
I tried so hard to really get to understand you
You took advantage of me from the start, oh baby
But now it seems that you have found another
And just like me you're gonna end with a broken heart
Oh no, listen to me
'Cos I had too much of this and that
And this and that is no good
I said I had too much baby, of this and that
And this and that is no good
Call me if you're all alone and blue
Say you love me and I'll come running to you
And I will, you know I will do anything for you, oh
'Cos I had too much of this and that
And this and that is no good
Listen baby, I had too much honey, of this and that
And this and that is no good, no good
One time
I had too much of this and that
And this and that is no good, no good, no good
I said I had too much baby, of this and that
Thunderball lyrics - Tom Jones
He always runs while others walk.
He acts while other men just talk.
He looks at this world, and wants it all,
So he strikes, like Thunderball.
He knows the meaning of success.
His needs are more, so he gives less.
They call him the winner who takes all.
And he strikes, like Thunderball.
Any woman he wants, he'll get.
He will break any heart without regret.
His days of asking are all gone.
His fight goes on and on and on.
But he thinks that the fight is worth it all.
So he strikes like Thunderball.
Triple Cross lyrics - Tom Jones
You've been crossed and even crossed double
If you've been around, that's normal for the course
But you won't believe the trouble you'll find in just one man
The man of the triple-cross
He's bad news and yet he's amusing
Unpredictable like dice you loosely toss
He's a master at confusing your most delicious plans
The man of the triple-cross
It's obvious as rain that the man is on your brain
That has gotten to your heart some way
So gamble if you must, with him that few will trust
Just let come what may
Give him love, he'll never stop taking
He can only win and you will take the loss
So before your world is shaking, escape him if you can
The man of the triple-cross
The triple-cross
The triple-cross
Try To Remember lyrics - Tom Jones
Try to remember the kind of September when life was slow and oh, so mellow
Try to remember the kind of September when grass was green and grain was yellow
Try to remember the kind of September when you were a tender and callow fellow
Try to remember and if you remember then follow
Try to remember when life was so tender that no one wept except the willow
Try to remember when life was so tender that dreams were kept beside your pillow
Try to remember when life was so tender that love was an ember about to billow
Try to remember and if you remember then follow
Deep in December it's nice to remember although you know the snow will follow
Deep in December it's nice to remember without the hurt the heart is hollow
Deep in December it's nice to remember the fire of September that made us mellow
Deep in December our hearts should remember and follow
Unchained Melody lyrics - Tom Jones
Oh, my love, my darling
I've hungered for your touch
A long lonely time
Time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you, still mine?
I need your love
I need your love
God speed your love to me
Lonely rivers flow to the sea
To the sea
To the open arms of the sea
Lonely rivers cry
"Wait for me, wait for me"
I'll be coming home wait for me
Oh my love, my darling
I've hungered for your touch
A long lonely time
I need your love
I need your love
God speed your love to me
When The Band Goes Home lyrics - Tom Jones
Maybe we should stay together for good
Love seems to be coming our way
When we're apart, I get this ache in my heart
Can't wait to start a new day
When the band goes home we'll stay out on the dance floor
We're the last ones in the park every night
All the things that lovers do, we both seem to do
Everything is looking right
Not like before, we're not kids anymore
This time we know what we're doing
And look what we've found with our feet on the ground
So why wait around one more day?
When the band goes home we'll stay out on the dance floor
We're the last ones in the park every night
All the things that lovers do, you and I will always do
We'll live hand-in-hand even when the band goes home
And when the band goes home we'll stay out on the dance floor
We're the last ones in the park every night
All the things that lovers do, you and I will always do
We'll live hand-in-hand even when the band goes home
And when the band goes home we'll stay out on the dance floor
We're the last ones in the park every night
All the things that lovers do, you and I will always do
We'll live hand-in-hand
You Can Leave Your Hat On lyrics - Tom Jones
Baby, take off your coat, real slow.
Baby, take off your shoes. I'll help you take off your shoes.
Baby, take off your dress. Yes, yes, yes.
You can leave your hat on.
You can leave your hat on.
You can leave your hat on.
Go over there, turn on the light. No, all the lights.
Come back here, stand on the chair. Ooh, baby, that's right!
Raise your arms in the air, now shake 'em.
You give me reason to live.
You give me reason to live.
You give me reason to live.
You can leave your hat on!
Suspicious minds are talking. That's right, they'll tear us apart.
They don't believe in this love of ours.
They don't know what love is.
They don't know what love is.
I know what love is.
You can leave your hat on.
You can
