Love Songs lyrics

Please Mr. Please
Olivia Newton-John
(Welch/Rostill)

In the corner of the bar there stands a jukebox
With the best of country music, old and new
You can hear your five selections for a quarter
And somebody else's songs when yours are through

I got good Kentucky whiskey on the counter
And my friends around to help me ease the pain

He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother

The road is long
With many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows where
Who knows when
But I'm strong

If a picture paints a thousand words
Then why can't I paint you
The words will never show
The you I've come to know
If a face could launch a thousand ships
Then where am I to go
There's no one home but you
You're all that's left me too
And when my love for life is running dry
You'll come and pour yourself on me

If a girl could be two places at one time
I'd be with you

(Taylor)

There'll be no strings to bind your hands
Not if my love can find your heart
And there's no need to take a stand
For it was I who chose to start
I see no need to take me home
I'm old enough to face the dawn

Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Then slowly turn away from me

The words I have to say
May well be simple but they're true
Until you give your love
There's nothing more that we can do
Love is the opening door
Love is what we came here for
No one could offer you more
Do you know what I mean?
Have your eyes really seen?

You say it's very hard
To leave behind the life we knew
But there's no other way
And now it's really up to you

I know your leaving's too long overdue
For far too long I've had nothing new to show to you
Goodbye dry eyes
I watched your plane fade off west of the moon
And it felt so strange to walk away alone

No regrets
No tears goodbye
Don't want you back
We'd only cry again
Say goodbye again

The hours that were yours
Echo like empty rooms
The thoughts we used to share
I now keep alone

If you could read my mind, love
What a tale my thoughts could tell
Just like an old-time movie
About a ghost from a wishing well
In a castle dark or a fortress strong
With chains upon my feet
You know that ghost is me
And I will never be set free As long as I'm a ghost that you can't see

If I could read your mind, love
What a tale your thoughts could tell
Just like a paperback novel

(B. Wilson/T. Asher)

I may not always love you
But long as there are stars above you
There'd be no need to doubt it
I'll make you so sure about it
God only knows what I feel about you

If you should ever leave me
My life would still go on, believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me?
God only knows what I feel about you

(Peter Allen/Jeff Barry)

Maybe I hang around here
A little more than I should
We both know I got somewhere else to go
But I got something to tell you
That I never thought I would
But I believe you really ought to know

I love you
I honestly love you

You don't have to answer
I see it in your eyes
Maybe it was better left unsaid
This is pure and simple
And you should realize

(Sanson/Osborne)

Strands of light on our bedroom floor
Change the night through an open door
I'm awake but this is not my home
For the first time I'm not alone
Reaching out I touch another's skin
Breathing out as he's breathing in
Deep inside I feel my soul aflame
Can my life ever be the same

I should have told him
That I'd do anything if I could hold him

I give you stars and sunshine
A rainbow at your feet each time you rise
So dry your eyes
The house of yesterday is crumblin' at my feet
But I don't mind, I had my time
I am but yesterday
And you my child, tomorrow
There's nothing I can give you
For you have more than me
You are the truth within your youth

I watch you dance and playing
The little prince of all that you survey

(McLean)

No one can take your place with me
And time has proven that I'm right
There's no place I'd rather be
Than at your place for the night
No time can pass your sight unseen
No moment steals away unfound
Lifetime lived in such a dream
Floats like a feather to the ground

And for the first time I've been seeing
The things I've never noticed without you

If we only have love
Then tomorrow will dawn
And the days of our years
Will rise on that morn
If we only have love
To embrace without fears
We will kiss with our eyes
We will sleep without tears

If we only have love
With our arms open wide
Then the young and the old
will stand at our side

If we only have love
Love that's falling like rain
Then the parched desert earth

(Olivia Newton-John)

We said a million times we'd change
Can't bring myself to say those words again
A piper never changes tune
You can't grow apples on the moon

The hurtful things we say still penetrate
And whispered sorrys always come too late
Then the damage has been done
What are we going to tell our son?

I want to spare his broken heart
Break it gently that we'll live apart

Night is dragging her feet
I wait alone in the heat.
I know, know that you'll have your way
When you have to go home
No's a word I can't say.
'Cause it gets me nowhere
to tell you 'no'.
And it gets me nowhere
to make you go.
Will a little more love
make you start depending?
Will a little more love bring us a happy ending?
Will a little more love make it right?

(Olivia Newton-John, Victoria Shaw, Earl Rose)

Here we are at last, suddenly the pieces fit
All at once, I make sense of this crazy world
Loved you for so long, now your hand is holdin' mine
It's like we're standing still in time

This is our moment, this is our night
A new beginning of the rest of our lives
With every heartbeat, with every kiss
Let's always remember that love is a gift

(Terry Britten/Sue Shifrin)

There's no power capable of
Coming between us--dividing our love
To be faithful I have sworn
Together we can weather the storm

Our tomorrows are ticking away
Our hands are tied--we're victims of fate
In my darkness I will pray
For destiny to send me your way

Love make me strong
Give me the strength to carry on
Love make me strong

(John Farrar)

She walks in and I'm suddenly a hero
I'm taken in my hopes begin to rise
Look at me can't you tell I'd be so
Thrilled to see the message in your eyes
You make it seem I'm so close to my dream
And then suddenly it's all there

Suddenly the wheels are in motion
And I, I'm ready to sail any ocean
Suddenly I don't need the answers

(Foster/Lukather/Newton-John)

Could it be we're the perfect pair?

Have it all if we'd only dare
I have dreamed of a night like this

Maybe you will end my loneliness

Meeting you was a dangerous thing

Can't control what is happening

Stood my ground, didn't run away

Trying hard to hide that I'm so afraid

Take a chance, take a chance
