These Foolish Things

(robinson, tarplin, moore)

People say i´m the life of the party
´cause i tell a joke or two
Although i may be laughin´ loud and hearty
Deep inside i´m blue
So take a good look at my face
You'll see my smile looks out of place
If you look closer it´s easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
I need you, need you
Since you left me
If you see me with another girl
Seemin´ like i´m havin´ fun
Although she may be cute
She´s just a substitute
Because you´re the only one
So take a good look at my face
You see my smile looks out of place
If you look closer it´s easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
I need you, need you
I´m masquerading
My hope is fading
Oh yeah, since you put me down
My smile is my makeup
I wear since my break-up with you
Baby take a good look at my face
You'll see my smile looks out of place
If you look closer it´s easy to trace
The tracks of my tears

Well it´s been building up inside me for
I don´t know how long
I don´t know why
But i keep thinking
Something´s bound to go wrong
But she looks in my eyes
And makes me realise
When she says "don´t worry baby"
Don´t worry baby
Everything will turn out all right
Don´t worry baby
Each morning i awake to find the sunlight
Softly shining on her hair
And then i realise i´m wrong in thinking
That she really doesn't care
There's magic in her eyes
That makes me come alive
When she says "don´t worry baby"
Don´t worry baby
Everything will turn out alright
Don´t worry baby
She tells me "baby when you leave today just
Take along my love with you
And if you knew how much i loved you baby
Nothing could go wrong for you"
What she does to me
When she makes love to me
And she says "don´t worry baby"
Everything will turn out alright
Don´t worry baby

River of salt
Falling from my eyes
It seems a though
I can't realise
My love has gone
She has left this town
River of salt
Keeps flowing down
Day turns to night
Still tears fall
Since we're apart
They won't stop at all
River of salt
Your tears won't end
Will i see
My love again?
Will i see
My love again?

Nobody knows where my johnny has gone
But judy left the same time
Why was he holding her hand
When he´s supposed to be mine
It´s my party and i´ll cry if i want to
Cry if i want to, cry if i want to
You would cry too, if it happened to you
Play all my records, keep dancing all night
But leave me alone for a while
'til johnny´s dancing with me
I have no reason to smile
It´s my party and i´ll cry if i want to
Cry if i want to, cry if i want to
You would cry too if it happened to you
Judy and johnny just walked through that door
But like a queen with her king
Oh, what a birthday surprise
Judy´s wearing his ring
It´s my party, and i´ll cry if i want to
Cry if i want to, cry if i want to
You would cry too if it happened to you

(berns,ragovoy)

Didn´t i make you feel like you are the only one?
Didn´t i give you everything that i possibly can?
But with all the love i give you it´s never enough
But i´m gonna show you, baby, that i really can be tough
So come on, come on, come on, come on, take it
Take another little piece of my heart now, baby
Break another little bit of my heart now, honey
Have another little piece of my heart now, baby
You know you got it if makes you feel good
You´re out on the streets looking good
And you know deep down in your heart that it ain´t right
You never, never hear me when i cry at night
I tell myself that i can´t stand the pain
But when i hold you in my arms, i´ll say it again
So come on, come on, come on, come on take it
Take another little piece of my heart now, baby
Break another little bit of my heart now, honey
Have another little piece of my heart now, baby
You know you got it if makes you feel good

I love how your eyes close
Whenever you kiss me
And when i´m away from you
I love how you miss me
I love the way you always
Treat me tenderly
But darlin´ most of all
I love how you love me
I love how your heart beats
Whenever i hold you
I love how you think of me
Without being told to
I love the way your touch
Is so heavenly
But darling´ most of all
I love how you love me...
I love how your eyes close
Whenever you kiss me
And when i´m away from you
I love how you miss me
I love the way you always
Treat me tenderly
But darlin´ most of all
I love how you love me
....love me, love me
Love how you hug me
I love how you squeeze me
I love how you squeeze me
Tease me, please me
Love how you tease me
I love the way you always treat me tenderly
But darling most of all, i love how you love me

Oh where have you been, my blue eyed son?
Where have you been, my darling young one?
I´ve stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains
Walked and i´ve crawled on six crooked highways
Stepped in the middle of seven sad forests
Been out in front of a dozen dead oceans
I´ve been ten thousand miles in mouth of a graveyard
And it´s a hard rain´s a-gonna fall
And what did you see, my blue eyed son?
What did you see, my darling young one?
I saw a new-born baby with wild wolves around it
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it
I saw a black branch with blood that kept drippin´
I saw a room full of men with their hammers a bleedin´
A white ladder all covered with water
I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken
I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children
And it´s a hard rain´s a-gonna fall
And what did you hear, my blue eyed son?
What did you hear, my darling young one
I heard the sound of thunder that roared out a warning
Heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world
Heard one hundred drummers whose hands were a blazin´
Heard ten thousand whisperin´ and nobody listenin´
Heard one person starve, i heard many people laughin´
Heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter
Heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley
And it´s a hard rain´s a-gonna fall
Oh who you did meet, my blue eyed son?
Who did you meet, my darling young one?
I met a young child beside a dead pony
I met a white man who walked a black dog
I met a young woman whose body was burning
A young girl, she gave me a rainbow
I met one man who was wounded in love
Another man who was wounded with hatred
And it´s a hard rain´s a-gonna fall
Oh what'll you do now, my blue eyed son?
What'll you do now, my darling young one?
I'm goin´ back out ´fore the rain starts a-fallin´
Walk throught the depths of the deepest black forest
Where the people are many and their hands are all empty
Where the pellets of poison are flooding their waters
Where the home in the valley meets the damp dirty prison
Where the executioners face is always well hidden
Where hunger is ugly, where souls are forgotten
Where black is the colour, and none is the number
And i´ll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it
And reflect it from the mountains so all souls can see it
Then i´ll stand in the ocean until i start sinking
But i´ll know my song well before i start singing
And it´s a hard rain´s a-gonna fall
