Please Help Me I'm Fal lyrics

If you ever go across the sea to Ireland then maybe at the closing of your day

You will sit and watch the moon rise over forrest

And see the sun go down on Galway Bay
Just to hear again the ripplin' of the trout stream

The women in the meadows making hay

And to sit beside a turn fire in the cabin

And watch the barefoot cousins at their play

[ ac.guitar ]

Far across deep blue water lives an old German's daughter

By the banks of the old River Rhine
Where I loved her and left her but I can't forget her

Cause I miss my pretty Fraulein

Fraulein Fraulein look up toward the heavens each night when the stars start to shine

By the same stars above you I swear that I love you you are my pretty Fraulein

[ ac.guitar - piano ]

There's nothin' in the world that pleases me

Like a pretty little girl from across the sea

But the thing that I want a little too far I got myself a foreign car
Cause you can't get in and you can't get out unless you do some squirmin' about

Maybe you're not a lover but in case you are you can't do much lovin' in a foreign car

If I ever needed you I need you now I can't remember when I've ever been so blue
If I ever needed love I need it now I feel so all alone I don't know what to do

No day or night goes by when I don't have my cry

I feel like I could die from wanting you

I can't ease my aching heart honey you know how if I ever needed you I need you now

[ piano ]

No day or night goes by...

I love you because you understand dear every single thing I try to do

You're always there to lend a helping hand dear
I love you most of all because you're you

No matter what the world may say about me

I know your love will always see me through

I love you for the way you never doubt me but most of all I love you cause you're you

[ piano ]

I close my eyes and picture the emerald of the sea

From the fishing boats at Dingle to the shores of Dunardee

I miss the river Shannon and the folks at Skibbereen
The midlands and the moorlands with their forty shades of green

But most of all I miss the girl in Tipperary town

And most of all I miss her arms and hair so long and brown

I wonder how many poor boys like me are still in love with a foreign memory

And how many poor girls are waiting over there
With their hearts tied to a foreign love affair

Foreign love affairs distant lands apart foreign love affairs many broken hearts

[ guitar ]

I'd give up a kingdom if I were a king to be with my darling and have one golden ring

Harbor lights are ahead and bright they're shining I can feel the thrill of coming home

But I know my heart will not be willing to forget a foreign love I've known
I will soon be in the arms that waited faithfully each day that I've been gone

But my heart could never be contented to forget a foreign love I've known

[ guitar ]

Everytime I look at you I pinch myself can it be true

This lovely girl is really mine any wonder I find

The girls get prettier every day cuter and lovelier in every way
The girls get prettier every day and honey especially you

I saw your friend in town today her hair mixed up in a brand new way

She's as cute as she can be and it seems to me

The girls get prettier...

[ guitar ]

What a beautiful thought I am thinking concerning the great speckled bird

Remember her name is recorded on the pages of God's holy word
Desiring to lower her standards they watch every move that she makes

They long to find fault with her teaching but really they find no mistakes

(On the wings of the great speckled bird great speckled bird)

You were hiding in my heart you were in that way down deep

I never knew that you were there why I must have been asleep
Now I see that I was wrong a foolish boy in the dark

And while I was kissing others you were hiding in my heart

I hardly knew you I didn't care without any warning one day you were there

Now my heart beats just for you we must never be apart

When the moon is shining down down through the moss covered trees

Never let to see you kiss anyone else but me
Toujours moi toujours moi let it be always me

Toujours moi toujours moi your love belongs to me

[ piano ]

When your heart is lonesome for sweet words of love cherry

Promise me nobody else will tell you those words but me

Toujours moi toujours moi...

You opened the door to heaven the first time I kissed you the first time
With you in my arms I knew then the first time I kissed you you were mine

I can't stay away from you it's true

You were meant for me and I was meant for you

I've fallen in love with an angel the first time I kissed you the first time

[ guitar + piano ]

I can't stay away from you...

A chain of steel a wall of stone could not keep me from you

But while your finger wears a ring of gold what can I do

I'm burning up with love but still I'm left out in the cold
Because you wear a yellow band of fourteen karat gold

I never should have let my heart go roaming by itself

But it gets awful lonesome when your heart sets on the shelf

When the warship left Manila sailing proudly o'er the sea

Many sailors hearts were filled with sad regret

Looking backward to this Island where they spent such happy hours

Making love to every pretty gal they've met
Well up stopped a little sailor with his bright eyes all aglow

Saying take a look my gal's photograph

Then the sailors gathered round him just to look upon her face

Time nor tide will never change its way love like mine goes on day after day

True as stars that twinkle in the blue time nor tide won't change my love for you
Though the changing years may gray your golden hair

In my eyes you'll always be as sweet and fair

Like like ours will never be denied makes no difference what the time or tide

[ fiddle - steel ]

I was just lonesome I was just blue and I was too close to her and too far from you

We shared a glass of wine and a dance or two

And I held her close to me wishing she was you
That's how things happen that's how things begin

A heart gets too lonesome and looks for a friend

I didn't mean to cheat or be untrue

But I was too close to her and too far from you

I've gotta talk to your heart you have no right to make me cry

The love I've shone for you these years can't be washed away with tears

I've gotta talk to your heart
I've gotta make you understand our love is drifting far apart

Won't you please stop where you are let's not carry this too far

I've gotta talk to your heart

Too wise to told you all those lies that brought tears to your eyes

Underneath the lantern by the barrack's gate

Darling I remember the way you used to wait
Twas there that you whispered tenderly that you love me you'd always be

My lily of the left line my own Lili Marlene

[ ac.guitar ]

Time would come for roll call time for us to part

Darling I'd caress you and press you to my heart

Let me be the one to walk with you when you want somebody to talk with you

Anything that makes you happy I wanna do oh darling let me be the one

Let me be the one who means the most the one you wanna love and call your own
And when you choose your partner I wanna be the choice oh please let me be the one

Let me be the one to sit with you

We were waltzin' that night in Kentucky beneath that beautiful harvest moon
I was a boy that was lucky but it all ended too soon
As I sit here alone in the moonlight I can see your smiling face
And I long once more for your embrace and that beautiful Kentucky Waltz
[ piano ]
As I sit here alone...

Tonight down here in the valley I'm lonesome and oh how I feel

As I sit here alone in my cabin I can see your mansion on the hill
Do you recall when we parted the story to me you revealed

You said you could live without love dear in your loveless mansion on the hill

[ piano ]

I've waited all through the years love to give you a heart true and real

Mademoiselle Mademoiselle of gay Paris think back think back remember me

Mademoiselle Mademoiselle in dreams I see wour smiling face and gay Paris
We walked and talked by the river Seine

Then we drew our hearts and carved our names

I loved you then and you loved me think back Mademoiselle my used to be

A soldier boy I long for love away from home so you are a girl so all alone

Once I know you cared for only me a love we shared I know was right

Tomorrow you'll wed someone else tell me darling is it love or is it spite
When your jealous heart drove me from you you found other arms to hold you tight

Tomorrow when you'll say I do will you marry him for love or is it spite

Is it love or spite that drives you to his arms

Can you make your heart believe it's right

A seven or eleven that would put me high

But it would be just my luck to roll an old snakeye

Well once I had a woman who lived just for me
But a pair of these old shining dice made us disagree

I should have been a farmer we've got along just fine

But I couldn't resist these old dice and a jug of warm red wine

A seven or eleven I could make the bar

Seems I'm always right behind never first in line

A winner maybe I'm not meant to be
Number one would be just fine but I guess I'm not that kind

Second fiddle seems to be the role for me

Second fiddle never has the spotlight second fiddle never makes the news

Second fiddle never plays a love song second fiddle only plays the blues

[ guitar ]

All the years have seemed so short since I have known you

And the love I've shared with you I won't forget
And if we should ever reach a hundred years dear

You will be the same sweet girl as when we met

I'm so glad that I have found you little darling

In my heart I hold the sweetest memory

And each time I gaze into your eyes it's heaven

I can see the same sweet girl so dear to me

Rosalita my little rose of the rancho you won my heart down by the Rio

Dry your eyes dear and don't be blue Juanita
I'll come back to you my little Rosalita

Each night I tell the moon on high and all its glory

How you and I and days gone by and love's real story

Rosalita another day now is dawning for you I'm longing my Rosalita

[ brass ]

Each night I tell the moon...

Sometimes I get so lonely and I don't know what to do

Though there's people all around me still I feel so sad and blue

Then I heard your happy laughter as though an angel were to sing
And I knew that I was bankrupt and you were wealthy as a king

My heart's so cold and lonely that I live in poverty

Your heart's so warm and lovin' you are richer more than me

I know not where on earth to find you I know not how or where to start

I only know I'm here without you and there's pins and needles in my heart
The days and nights are growing longer since first you said that we must part

But now I know I can't forget you with these pins and needles in my heart

[ piano ]

I always see your face before me your smile is heaven's work of art

When we say goodnight I leave my hope I leave my dreams I leave my heart

On the other side of the door with you my love
On the other side of the door with you my love

Walking home alone where are the stars where is the moon where is my world

On the other side of the door with you my love

On the other side of the door with you my love

My arms don't wanna go my lips just long to stay

My wild Irish Rose the sweetest flower that grows
You may search everywhere but none can compare with my wild Irish Rose
My wild Irish Rose the dearest flower that grows
And someday for my sake she may let me take the bloom from my wild Irish Rose
[ piano - guitar ]
My wild Irish Rose the dearest...

I've seen Big Ben in London town the lights of gay Paris

The charming seems the foreign lands leave golden memory

I've seen the gleam in harbor lights from on the ocean blue
But the place I'm longing most to see is my old hometown and you

I've walked the streets of Tokio the beach of Waikiki

I've rambled all the world around I've sailed the seven seas

Mexicali Rose stop crying I'll come back to you some sunny day
Every night you know that I'll be pining every hour a year while I'm away

Dry those big brown eyes and smile dear

Vanish all those tears and please don't cry

Kiss me once again and hold me Mexicali Rose goodbye

[ guitar ]

Dry those big brown eyes...

One has my name the other has my heart

With one I'll remain that's how my heartaches start

One has brown eyes the other's eyes are blue
To one I am tied to the other I am true

One has my love the other only me

But what good is love to a heart that can't be free

So I'll go on living my life just the same

While one has my heart and the other has my name

[ guitar - piano ]

Once more to be with you dear just for tonight to hold you tight

Once more I'd give a fortune if I could see you once more

Forget the past this hurt can't last so I don't want it to keep us apart

Your love I crave I'll be your slave if you'll just give me all of your heart

Once more to be with you...

[ piano ]

Once more to be with you...

The Old Bog Road: Teresa Brayton

My feet are here on Broadway
This blessed harvest morn,

But oh! the ache thatÂ’s in my heart

For the spot where I was born.

My weary hands are blistered

Through work in cold and heat!

And oh! to swing a scythe once more

Through a field of Irish wheat.

Had I the chance to wander back,

Or own a kingÂ’s abode.

Oh how I miss you since you went away oh how I need you more every day

I'll be so happy when you're back to stay oh how I miss you since you went away
I lost my sunshine the day you went away all of my blue skies have turned into gray

I'm so brokenhearted that's all I can say oh how I miss you since you went away

[ piano ]

(Oh how I miss you since you went away)

I stopped into our old hang out just wandered in to look about

Countin' all the faces we once knew
The thrill was gone the play seemed strange I looked for you you never came

My heart was on the border of the blues

A friendly smile here and there a table with an empty chair

A love song I used to dance with you

But since you're gone there's nothing left I couldn't stay the way I felt

I get the blues as we dance I get the blues in advance

For I know you'll be gone and I'll be here alone so I get the blues in advance
Some get the blues from a song some when love has come and gone

You don't know how I cry when you tell me goodbye so I get the blues in advance

[ guitar ]

As I think of our past romance I get the blues in advance

Night and you and blue Hawaii the night is heavenly and you are heaven to me
Lovely you and blue Hawaii with all this loveliness that should be loved

Come with me while the moon is on the sea the night is young and so are we

Dreams come true in blue Hawaii and mind could all come through

This magic night of nights with you

[ guitar ]

Come with me...

In the twilight glow I see her blue eyes crying in the rain

As we kissed goodbye and parted I knew we'd never meet again
Love is like a dying ember only memories remain

Through the ages I'll remember blue eyes crying in the rain

[ piano ]

Now my hair has turned to silver all my life I've loved in vain

I can see her star in heaven blue eyes crying in the rain

Daddy was a handsome lad close on seventeen

And every girl he met was mad to be Danny's queen

Danny dear oh Danny dear Danny don't be cold
Now's the time for loving dear not when we grow old

First came Kate and then came Sue and after her came Jane

And each girl in her turn would sing to Danny this refrain

Danny dear oh Danny dear...

[ piano ]

Candy kisses wrapped in paper mean more to you than any of mine

Candy kisses wrapped in paper you'd rather have them any old time
You don't mean it when you whisper those sweet love words in my ear

Candy kisses wrapped in paper mean more to you than mine do dear

[ piano + guitar ]

I build a castle out of dreams dear I thought that you were building one too

I'll love you dear as long as I live

It was easy said that night we parted that we'd forget we had ever met
I haven't forgotten I wonder if you have or if your heart's too full of regret

As long as I live if it be one hour or if it be one hundred years

I'll keep remembering forever and ever I'll love you dear as long as I live

[ piano ]

Tonight while the snowflakes are falling here in my dreams I can see

The wild cherry blossoms of Shima where I walk with Anna Marie
Anna Marie Anna Marie my heart remembers and sighs

Sabu sabu miami vatoo I miss you Anna Marie

[ guitar ]

My love was pledged to another but I knew as I crossed the sea

That I'd never love any other as I love my Anna Marie

Anna Marie Anna Marie...

Yesterday you said you love me today you say it's over now

Why did you go away and leave me all the world is lonely now
Don't tell me that you love another and that you've broken every vow

For I don't want to live without you all the world is lonely now

[ piano ]

I tried so hard to make you happy with love your heart would not allow

Slowly I'm falling more in love with you

Slowly you're winning a heart that can be true
Now I can't hide my feelings for it's so plain and true

Slowly I'm falling more in love with you

[ guitar ]

More and more I need you and want you by my side

More and more I love you as each day passes by

No need to hide my feelings for it's so plain and true

I can't buy you pretty things I can't give you diamond rings

All I have to offer is simple thing my heart my love my name
So won't you let me love you honey even though I have no money

Let me prove my love is true

If you could get that funny feeling let my love come a stealing

There's nothing in this world I couldn't do

All I have to offer is simple thing my heart my love my name

Who did you say it was brother who was it fell by the way

When whiskey and blood ran together did you hear anyone pray
When I heard the crash on the highway I knew what is was from the start

I went to the scene of destruction a picture was stamped on my hreart

I didn't hear nobody pray dear brother I didn't hear nobody pray

I've heard the crash on the highway but I didn't hear nobody pray

Go on tonight to the party with him and while you're dancing so closely with him

Don't let me cross your mind unless you choose
To think of me when the band plays the blues

Listen to the words and to the melody

And they will tell you just exactly how it felt to me

To see you go to the party with him

And know you're dancing right now so close to him

When Irish eyes are smiling sure it's like a morning spring

In the lilt of Irish laughter you can hear the angels sing
When Irish hearts are happy all the world seems bright and gay

And when Irish eyes are smiling sure they steal your heart away

(When Irish eyes are smiling sure it's like a morning spring)

Honey you know the springtime of life is the sweetest of all

You were there in my arms alone in the moonlight

The trees played the waltz of the wind
It was there that I knew I'll love you forever we danced to the waltz of the wind

The stars up above you looked down in your eyes

And told me this night would never end

Now I'm dreaming of you till we meet tomorrow and dance to the waltz of the wind

[ guitar ]

The stars up above...

From the great Atlantic ocean to the wide Pacific shore

From the queen of glowin' mountains to the south hills by the shore

She's mighty tall and handsome and known quite well by all
She's a combination on the Wabash Cannonball

She came down from Birmingham one cold December day

As she rolled into the station you could hear all the people say
