1. _ Come Rain Or Come Shine
I'm gonna love you, like nobody's loved you
Come rain or come shine
High as a mountain, deep as a river
Come rain or come shine
I guess when you met me
It was just one of those things
But don't you ever bet me
'cause i'm gonna be true if you let me
You're gonna love me, like nobody's loved me
Come rain or come shine
We'll be happy together, unhappy together
Now won't that be just fine
The days may be cloudy or sunny
We're in or out of the money
But i'm with you always
I'm with you rain or shine

2. _ As Long As I Live
Maybe i can't live to love you as long as i want to.
Life isn't long enough baby, but i can love you as long as i live.
Maybe i can't give you diamonds and things like i want to,
But i can promise you, baby, i'm gonna want to as long as i live.
I never cared, but now i'm scared, i won't live long enough.
That's why i wear my rubbers when it rains and eat an apple every day then see
The doctor anyway.
What if i can't live to love you as long as i want to.
Long as i promise you, baby, i'm gonna love you as long i live.
<musical interlude>
I'll even wear long underwear, when winter breezes blow
I'm gonna take good care of me because, a sneeze or two might mean the flu,
And that would never never do
What if i can't live to love you as long as i want to.
Long as i promise you, baby, i'm gonna love you as long i live.

3. _ Over The Rainbow
somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
There's a place that i heard of
Once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true
Some day i'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then oh why can't i?
If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow why
Oh why can't i?

4. _ For Every Man There's A Woman
For every man there's a woman
For every life there's a plan
And wise men know it was ever so
Since the world began, woman was made for man
Where is she, where is the woman for me?
For every prince there's a princess
For every joe there's a joan
And if you wait, you will find the mate
Born for you alone, happy to be your own
Where is she, where is the woman for me?
Find the one, find the one
Then together you will find the sun
For every heart there's a moment
For every hand, a glove
And for every woman, a man to love
<instrumental>
For every heart there's a moment
For every hand, a glove
And for every woman, a man to love
Where is she, where is the one for me?

5. _ Out Of This World
You're clear out of this world
When i'm looking at you
I hear out of this world
The music that no mortal ever knew
You're right out of a book
The fairy tale i read when i was five
No armored knight out of a book
Was more enchanted by a loralei
Then i
After waiting so long
For the right time
After reaching so long for a star
All at once from long and lonely night time
And despite time, here you are
I cry, "out of this world"
If you said we were through
So let me fly out of this world
And spend the next eternity or two
With you

6. _ I've Got The World On A String
I've got the world on a string
I'm sitting on a rainbow
Got the string around my finger
What a world, what a life - i'm in love
I've got a song that i sing
I can make the rain go
Any time i move my finger
Lucky me, can't you see - i'm in love
Life's a wonderful thing
As long as i hold the string
I'd be a silly so-and-so
If i should ever let her go

7. _ Between The Devil And The Deep Blue Sea
I don't want you
But i hate to lose you
You've got me in between
The devil and the deep blue sea
I forgive you
'cause i can't forget you
You've got me in between
The devil and the deep blue sea
I ought to cross you off my list
But when you come a-knocking at my door
Fate seems to give my heart a twist
And i come running back for more
I should hate you
But i guess i love you
You've got me in between
The devil and the deep blue sea

8. _ Stormy Weather (keeps Rainin' All The Time)
Don't know why
There's no sun up in the sky
Stormy weather
Since my man and i ain't together
Keeps raining all the time
Life is bare
Gloom and misery everywhere
Stormy weather
Just can't get my poor old self together
I'm weary all the time, the time
So weary all of the time
When he went away
The blues walked in and met me
If he stays away, old rocking chair will get me
All i do is pray
The lord above will let me
Walk in the sun once more
Can't go on
Everything i had is gone
Stormy weather
Since my man and i ain't together
Keeps raining all the time
Keeps raining all of the time
I walk around,
Heavy-hearted and sad
Night comes around
And i'm still feeling bad
Rain pourin' down
Blinding every hope i had
This pitter 'n patter 'n beatin' 'n spatterin' drivin' me mad
Love, love, love, love
This misery will be the end of me
(bridge)
When he went away
The blues walked in and met me
If he stays away, old rocking chair will get me
All i do is pray
The lord above will let me
Walk in the sun once more
Can't go on
Everything i had is gone
Stormy weather
Since my man and i ain't together
Keeps raining all the time, the time
Keeps raining all the time

9. _ Ill Wind (you're Blowing Me No Good)
Blow ill wind, blow away
Let me rest today
You're blowin' me no good (no good)
Go ill wind, go away
Skies are oh so gray
Around my neighborhood, and that's no good
You're only misleadin' the sunshine i'm needin'
Ain't that a shame
It's so hard to keep up with troubles that creep up
From out of nowhere, when love's to blame
So ill wind, blow away
Let me rest today
You're blowin' me no good (no good)
<musical interlude>
You're only misleadin' the sunshine i'm needin'
Ain't that a shame
It's so hard to keep up with troubles that creep up
From out of nowhere, when love's to blame
So ill wind, blow away
Let me rest today
You're blowin' me no good (no good)
Blow, ill wind, blow.

10. _ Last Night When We Were Young
Last night when we were young
Love was a star, a song unsung
Life was so new, so real so right
Ages ago last night
Today the world is old
You flew away and time grew cold
Where is that star that shone so bright
Ages ago last night?
To think that spring had depended
On merely this: a look, a kiss
To think that something so splendid
Could slip away in one little daybreak
So now, let's reminisce
And recollect the sighs and the kisses
The arms that clung
When we were young last night
