A Black & White Night Live

Roy orbison

Uptown, in penhouse number three
Uptown, there lives a doll just made for me
She's the finest thing that you've ever seen, oh ho ha

Uptown, i see her most every day
Uptown, but she never ever looks my way
I'm just a bellhop, you see i can't stop
And tell her what i wanna say

That one of these days, i'm gonna have money
She'll wanna be my ever-lovin' honey
It won't be long, just wait and see
I'll have a big car, fine clothes
And then i'll be
Uptown, in penthouse number three
Uptown, just my baby and me

Yeah, one of these days, i'm gonna have money
She'll wanna be my ever-lovin' honey
It won't be long, just wait and see
I'll have a big car, fine clothes
And then i'll be
Uptown, in penthouse number three
Uptown, just my baby and me

Hey, leah leah

Hey, leah leah

Here i go

From the hut to the boat to the sea for leah

Uh huh! i gotta go diving in the bay

Gotta get a lot of oysters

Find some pearls today

To make a pretty necklace for leah

Leah



I gotta go deep and find the ones just right

I'll bet my leah will be surprised tonight

I'll place the pearls around the only girl for me

Leah



But something's wrong

I cannot move around

My leg is caught

It's pulling me down

But i'll keep my hands shut tight for if they find me

They'll find the pearls for leah



And now it's over

I'm awake at last

Oh, heartaches and memories from the past

It was just another dream about my lost love

About leah

Hey, leah leah

Hey, leah leah

Here i go

Back to sleep and in my dreams

I'll be with leah

Leah

Roy: i was all right for a while
I could smile for a while
Kd: but i saw you last night
You held my hand so tight
When you stopped to say hello
Roy: you wished me well
You couldn't tell that
I've been crying over you,
Crying over you and you said "so long" left me
Standing all alone, alone and crying, crying, crying, crying
It's hard to understand
But the touch of your hand can start me crying

I thought that i was over you but it's true, so true
I love you even more than i did before
But darling, what can i do?
For you don't love me
And i'll always be crying over you, crying over you

Roy: yes now you're gone
Both: and from this moment on, i'll be crying, crying, crying, crying
Yeah, crying, crying over you

Roy orbison

A candy-colored clown they call the sandman
Tiptoes to my room every night
Just to sprinkle stardust and to whisper
"go to sleep. everything is all right."

I close my eyes, then i drift away
Into the magic night. i softly say
A silent prayerlike dreamers do.
Then i fall asleep to dream my dreams of you.

In dreams i walk with you. in dreams i talk to you.
In dreams you're mine. all of the time we're together
In dreams, in dreams.

But just before the dawn, i awake and find you gone.
I can't help it, i can't help it, if i cry.
I remember that you said goodbye.

It's too bad that all these things, can only happen in my dreams
Only in dreams in beautiful dreams.

only the lonely
(r.orbison/melson)

Dum-dum-dum-dumdy-doo-wah
Ooh-yay-yay-yay-yeah
Oh-oh-oh-oh-wah
Only the lonely

Only the lonely (dum-dum-dum-dumdy-doo-wah)
Know the way i feel tonight (ooh-yay-yay-yay-yeah)
Only the lonely (dum-dum-dum-dumdy-doo-wah)
Know this feelin' ain't right (dum-dum-dum-dumdy-doo-wah)

There goes my baby
There goes my heart
They're gone forever
So far apart

But only the lonely
Know why
I cry
Only the lonely

Dum-dum-dum-dumdy-doo-wah
Ooh-yay-yay-yay-yeah
Oh-oh-oh-oh-wah
Only the lonely

Only the lonely
Know the heartaches i've been through
Only the lonely
Know i cried and cried for you

Maybe tomorrow
A new romance
No more sorrow
But that's the chance - you gotta take
If your lonely heart breaks
Only the lonely

Dum-dum-dum-dumdy-doo-wah

(elvis costello)

I sat there alone upon the ferris wheel
A pastel colored carriage in the air
I thought you'd leave me dangling for a little while
A silly twist upon a childish dare

Below i saw you whispering to another man
Who held the lever that could bring me down
He'd stop the world from turning at your command
It's always something cruel that laughter drowns

And i'm up while the dawn is breaking
Even though my heart is aching
I should be drinking a toast
To absent friends
Instead of these comedians

I can hardly hear the music from the carousel
The wind picks up, the carriage starts sway
As one by one the lights go out
It's closing time
I see you take his hand and walk away walk away

They say that you will always be the last to know
They say that all that glitters is not gold
It's not just that you're never coming back to me
It's the bitter way that i was told

And i'm up while the dawn is breaking
Even though my heart is aching
I should be drinking a toast
To absent friends
Instead of these comedians

Pretty woman, walkin' down the street, pretty woman

The kind i like to meet, pretty woman

I don't believe you, you're not the truth

No one could look as good as you. mercy!



Pretty woman, won't you pardon me? pretty woman,

I couldn't help but see, pretty woman, that you look lovely as can be.

Are you lonely just like me? wow!

Pretty woman, stop awhile.

Pretty woman, talk awhile

Pretty woman, give your smile to me.

Pretty woman, yeah, yeah, yeah

Pretty woman, look my way

Pretty woman, say you'll stay with me



'cause i need you, i'll treat you right

Come with me baby, be mine tonight

Pretty woman, don't walk on by

Pretty woman, don't make me cry

Pretty woman, don't walk away, hey, o.k.

If that's the way it must be, o.k.

I guess i'll go on home. it's late.

There'll be tomorrow night, but wait!

What do i see? is she walking back to me?

Yeah, she's walking back to me, oh, oh, pretty woman
