Karen Carpenter lyrics

I've always tried to level with you eye to eye
I finally found the devil in you by and by
But I don't really want to be the
Last one singing the blues
When it comes to fiction you're the best I've met
But all those little lies
are gonna get you yet
But I don't really want to be the
Last one singin' the blues
You say that you love me
But if you really love me

ahhhhhh....

You know I can't smile without you
Can't smile Without
I can't laugh and I can't sing
I don't even talk to people I mean
And I feel sad when your sad
And I feel glad when your glad
You must know what I'm going through
I just can't smile without you

You came along just like a song
You brightened my day
You 'd believe you were apart of a dream

Why do birds suddenly appear,
every time you are near?

Just like me,they long to be
close to you.

Why do stars fall down from the sky,every time you walk by?
Just like me,they long to be close to you.

On the day that you were born, the angels got together and decided to
create a dream come true.
So, they sprinkled moon dust in your hair, with gold and starlight

Little Altar Boy
I wonder could you pray for me
Little altar boy
for I have gone astray
what must I do to be holy like you
little altAr boy
please let me hear you pray

Lift up your voice and send a prayer above
help me rejoice and fill that prayer with love
now I know my life has been all wrong
little altar boy
please help a sinner be strong

little altar boy

Greeting cards have all been sent
The Christmas rush is through
But I still have one wish to make
A special one for you

Merry Christmas, darling
We're apart, that's true
But I can dream
And in my dreams
I'm Christmasing with you
Holidays are joyful
There's always something new
But every day's a holiday
When I'm near to you
The lights on my tree
I wish you could see

You

You are the one who makes me happy
When everything else turns to gray
Yours is the voice that wakes me mornings
And sends me out into the day

You are the crowd that sits quiet list'ning to me
With all the mad sense I make
You are one of the few things worth remembering
And since it's all true, how can anyone mean more to me than you.

Sorry if sometimes I look past you

Every night, every day
You're the one I always dream of.
Every line of your face
Is sketched so plain inside my heart.

You've grown so deep inside of me,
You're everything I feel and see.
And You're the One
You're the One I love.

All my life, all my love
I can feel when you're beside me.
All that's right, all that's wrong
Suddenly becomes so clear.

My heart has overtaken me

Darlin' you've got me fallin'
'Cause you're the only one whoever does it light
Every night I'm dreamin' about the feelin'
You know I can't explain what's goin' down
My head keeps spinnin' round

You are my lovelines and that's allright with me
Just give good times the way that love should be
Baby you're the warn glow that helps me through the day

I met my old lover on the street last night
He seemed so glad to see me
I just smiled
And we talked about some old times
And we drank ourselves some beers
Still crazy after all these years
Oh still crazy after all these years

I'm not the kind of girl who tends to socialize
I seem to lean on old familiar ways
And I ain't no fool for love songs
That whisper in my ears

You're close enough
To touch again
Where you should be
I'd love to think what your smile
Is leading to
I feel your eyes
Starting a fire all over me
Baby I know, I know what your arms can do

Remember when lovin' took all night
Remember the feeling of doing it right
It's been so wrong, you've been gone too long
Now it's gonna be all right
We'll take all night again tonight

You, you're driving me wild
You're making me fall in love
In love with you baby, I
I'm losing control
I don't wanna let go yet
Till you want me

You, you're all that I need
You're all that I want
And I'd sure love to love you, I
I gotta go slow
Keep it under control now
Till you want me

But my body keeps changing my mind
Keeps changing my heart
When we're dancing

Makin' love in the afternoon
Makin' love to another Beatle tune
And I know you're feelin' the same way too

All alone on a sunny day
On our own and we had to get away
And I know that I couldn't live without you
Don't ever leave me alone
Baby without you, I'd never make it alone

Makin' love on a sunny day
Makin' love in a very special way
And I hope you're feelin' the way I do

I've been livin' memories lost in the warm of your smile
Driftin' through the dreams we used to share
Thinkin' 'bout the times we spent in love without a care
And wishin' you were there

So darlin' if you should feel you're lonely tonight
And you need someone next to you to hold you tight
Just call me and I'll be there by your side
Cause we can put that feelin, back inside us
If we try

I wouldn't have the TV in the bedroom
I wouldn't have this teardrop in my eye
I wouldn't need the radio to be my lullaby
If I had you, if I had you

I wouldn't need the sun to light the morning
If I could have your love to light my night
I'd never for a second keep our love from burnin' bright
If I had you in my life

If I had you again
I wouldn't be the fool I've been

Every night I get tired eyes
My feet don't reach the ground
Then I'm with you
I get by 'cause I know that you're near me
So baby close your eyes
I can sleep tonight
All because of you

Every night when the fire flies
The walls come tumblin' down at the Bajou
I get by 'cause I know that you're near me
So baby close your eyes
I can sleep tonight
All because of you

We've tried our hand
At love before
We've been around the game enough
To know the score'
But then is then
And now is now
All now is all that matters anyhow

Make believe it's your first time
Leave your sadness behind
Make believe it's your first time
And I'll make believe it's mine

The door is closed
It's you and me
We'll take our time with love
The way it oughta be
