The Carpenters - I Believe You



I believe you
When you say that you will reach into the sky
And steal a star so you can put it on my finger
I believe you
Baby, I believe you

I believe you
When you say that every time that we make love
Will be the first time we've made love
And every act of love will please you
Baby, I believe you

(*) blind faith makes me follow you
I'd live in a cave if you wanted to
Just ask me and I'll marry you
You don't have to sell me
cause you overwhelm me

I've made up my mind for a life time
I believe you
When you swear your love will keep on growin' strong
And that forever isn't long enough to love me like you need to
Baby, I believe you

Baby, I believe you
Honey, I love you
Repeat (*)

I believe you
When you say you'll fill my body with your soul
And love will grow into a freckled little girl
Who looks like we do
Baby, I believe you
Baby, I believe you

Dan Fogelberg - Believe in Me


If I could ever say it right
And reach your hostage heart
Despite, the doubts you harbor
Then you might, come to believe in me


The life I lead is not the kind
That gives a woman peace of mind
I only hope someday you'll find
That you can believe in me


Those other loves that came before
Mean nothing to me anymore
But you can never be quite sure
And will not believe in me


Too many hearts have been broken
Failing to trust what they feel
But trust isn't something that's spoken
And love's never wrong, when it's real


If I could only do one thing
Then I would try to write and sing
A song that ends your questioning
And makes you believe in me


Too many hearts have been broken
Failing to trust what they feel
Trust isn't something that's spoken
And love's never wrong, when it's real


If I could only do one thing
Then I would try to write and sing
A song that ends your questioning
And makes you believe in me


And makes you believe in me
Oh, you can believe in me

Sukiyaki - A Taste of Honey


It's all because of you, Im feeling sad and blue
You went away now my life is just a rainy day
I love you so, how much youll never know
You've gone away and left me lonely

Untouchable memories seem to keep haunting me
Of love so true that once turned all my gray skies blue
But youve disappeared, now my eyes are filled with tears
Im wishin' you were here with me

Soft with love are my thoughts of you
Now that you're gone I don't know what to do
If only you were here, you'd wash away my tears
The sun would shine and once again you'd be mine, all mine

But in reality you and I will never be
Cause you took your love away from me, hooh
If only you were here, you'd wash away my tears
The sun would shine, once again you'd be mine, all mine

But in reality you and I will never be
Cause you took your love away from me, hooh, baby
You took your love away from me

Eric Clapton - Autumn Leaves


The falling leaves drift by my window
The autumn leaves of red and gold
I see your lips, the summer kisses
The sunburned hands, I used to hold


Since you went away, the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all, my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall


Since you went away, the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all, my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall


Yes, I miss you most of all, my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall

Alton Ellis - You Make Me So Happy




I lost at love before,
Got mad and closed the door.
But you said try just once more.
I chose you for the one,
Now I'm having so much fun.
You treated me so kind,
I'm about to lose my mind.
You made me so very happy,
I'm so glad you came into my life.

The others were untrue,
But when it came to lovin' you,
I'd spend my whole life with you.
'Cause you came and you took control,
You touched my very soul.
You always showed me that
Loving you was where it's at.
You made me so very happy,
I'm so glad you came into my life.

I love you so much, it seems
That you're even in my dreams.
I hear you calling me.
I'm so in love with you,
All I ever want to do is
Thank you, baby.

You made me so very happy,
I'm so glad you came into my life.
You made me so very happy,
I'm so glad you came into my life.

Merrily Webber - It's Time To Say I Love You


When you know that love is right
You gather dream bouquets
And one or two will drift away with you
Through all your colored days

And time is warm and meadows sweet
Like sunlight through the trees

The clouds go by
Just howlin' in the sky
On whispered days like these

When summer smiles
On everything you do
It's time to say I love you

(Repeat 2nd stanza except first 2 full lines)
(Repeat last stanza except last three words)

..I lo..........ve you

Journey - After All These Years


A faded wedding photograph
You and me in our first dance
Our eyes are closed
We're lost in one sweet embrace
Since those days the world has changed
But our love remains the same
God knows we've had our share of saving grace

And I'm proud of all the blessings
You have given me
The mountains we have climbed to get this far
You've learned to take the laughter with the tears
After all these years

You make it feel brand new
After the fires that we walked through
Against the odds we never lost our faith

In our house we've made our home
Where our children all have grown
Precious moments time cannot erase

Make a living up and down the gypsy highways
Seasons that we've had to share apart
Somehow in my heart I always keep you near me
After all these years

After all these years
You stood by me
The days and nights that I was gone
After all these years
You sacrificed, believed in me
And you stood strong
Cause with our love there's nothing left to fear
After all these years

After all these years
You stood by me
The days and nights that I was gone
After all these years
You've sacrificed, believed in me
And you stood strong
Cause with our love there's nothing left to fear
After all these years

Kalantog - Sabon


I thought this is an appropriate song for today's occasion which is the International Women's Day.



SABON
by Kalantog
Lyrics by Joi Barrios
Music by Rica Saturay-Palis
Sa telebisyon ang babae'y nakakahon
nakakahong parang bareta ng sabon
maging sabong panlaba o sabong pampaganda
babae ang laging bida.
Kapag sabong pampaganda, lagi nang nang-iinggit
dahil mapanghalina ang kutis na makinis
Kapag sabong panlaba, masayang ginigiit
na kahit 'di ikula ay puputi ang damit.
Sa telebisyon ang babae'y nakakahon
nakakahong parang bareta ng sabon
maging sabong panlaba o sabong pampaganda
babae ang laging bida.
At bago magwakas itong ating patalastas
lalaki ang nagpapasalamat
kutis ng kanyang nobya kaysarap haplusin
labada ni misis kay bangong amuyin.
Sa telebisyon ang babae'y nakakahon
nakakahong parang bareta ng sabon
maging sabong panlaba o sabong pampaganda
babae ang laging bida.
Heto ngayon ang tanong sa bidang nakakahon
wala ba siyang pangarap o ibang ambisyon
sa tinagal ng panahon dadal'wa ang posisyon
Dakilang katulong o isang dekorasyon.
Sa ganitong pagkakataon
Natutunaw na ang sabon
Ang bidang ikinahon lalabas ng telebisyon
Upang harapin ang bagong ambisyon
Sabunin, kusutin, pigain ang sa kanya'y nagkahon!
