Roy Orbison - Oh, Pretty Woman (Videos and Lyrics)

Pretty woman, walking down the street
Pretty woman, the kind I like to meet
Pretty woman
I don't believe you, you're not the truth
No one could look as good as you

Pretty woman, won't you pardon me
Pretty woman, I couldn't help but see
Pretty woman
That you look lovely as can be
Are you lonely just like me

Pretty woman, stop awhile
Pretty woman, talk awhile
Pretty woman, give your smile to me
Pretty woman, yea yea yea
Pretty woman, look my way
Pretty woman, say you'll stay with me (held)
'cause I need you, I'll treat you right
Come with me baby, be mine tonight (held)

Pretty woman, don't walk on by
Pretty woman, don't make me cry
Pretty woman
Don't walk away, hey Ok
If that's the way it must be, ok
I guess I'll go on home, it's late
There'll be tomorrow night, but wait
What do I see

Is she walking back to me
Yea, she's walking back to me
Oh, oh, pretty woman

Roger Hodgson - Take The Long Way Home (Video and lyrics)

 So you think you're a Romeo
playing a part in a picture-show
Take the long way home
Take the long way home

 

Cos you're the joke of the neighborhood
Why should you care
 if you're feeling good
Take the long way home
Take the long way home

 

But there are times that you feel
you're part of the scenery
all the greenery is comin' down, boy
And then your wife seems to think you're part of
the furniture oh, it's peculiar, she used to be so nice.

 

When lonely days turn to lonely nights
you take a trip to the city lights
And take the long way home
Take the long way home

 

You never see what you want to see
Forever playing to the gallery
You take the long way home
Take the long way home

 

And when you're up on the stage, it's so unbelievable,
unforgettable, how they adore you,
But then your wife seems to think you're losing your sanity,
oh, calamity, is there no way out?

 

Does it feel that you life's become a catastrophe?
Oh, it has to be for you to grow, boy.
When you look through the years and see what you could
have been oh, what might have been,
if you'd had more time.

 

So, when the day comes to settle down,
Who's to blame if you're not around?
You took the long way home
You took the long way home...........

"The Logical Song" (Supertramp) Video and lyrics

When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful,
a miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical.
And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily,
joyfully, playfully watching me.
But then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible,
logical, responsible, practical.
And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable,
clinical, intellectual, cynical.

There are times when all the world's asleep,
the questions run too deep
for such a simple man.
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
I know it sounds absurd
but please tell me who I am.

Now watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical,
liberal, fanatical, criminal.
Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're
acceptable, respecable, presentable, a vegtable!

At night, when all the world's asleep,
the questions run so deep
for such a simple man.
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
I know it sounds absurd
but please tell me who I am

Bee Gees - How Deep Is Your Love (1977)( Video and lyrics)

I know your eyes in the morning sun
I feel you touch me in the pouring rain
And the moment that you wander far from me
I wanna feel you in my arms again

And you come to me on a summer breeze
Keep me warm in your love then you softly leave
And it’s me you need to show
How deep is your love?

Chorus:
How deep is your love, how deep is your love
I really mean to learn
‘Cause we’re living in a world of fools
Breaking us down when they all should let us be
We belong to you and me

I believe in you
You know the door to my very soul
You’re the light in my deepest, darkest hour
You’re my savior when I fall

And you may not think I care for you
When you know down inside that I really do
And it’s me you need to show
How deep is your love?

Chorus

And you come to me on a summer breeze
Keep me warm in your love then you softly leave
And it’s me you need to show
How deep is your love?

Roy Orbison - You Got It ( Video and Lyrics)

Everytime I look into your lovely eyes
I see a love that money just can't buy

One look from you
I drift away
I pray that you
Are here to stay

Anything you want, you got it
Anything you need, you got it
Anything at all, you got it
Baby

Everytime I hold you I begin to understand
Everything about you tells me I'm your man

I live my life
To be with you
No one can do
The things you do

Anything you want, you got it
Anything you need, you got it
Anything at all, you got it
Baby

I'm glad to give
My love to you
I know you feel
The way I do

Anything you want, you got it
Anything you need, you got it
Anything at all
You got it

Attomic Kitten - It's OK!

 

 

Well I remember all the nights I used to stay at home
on the phone all night long,
Used to talk about the things we really wanna do
I believed in you,
I remember how you used to say
have no fear, be ok,
When you told me anything you want is possible
we could have it all

I believed in you
must have been a fool,
All my dreams were with you

CHORUS:
I say it's ok,
I can promise you
it's alright,
You ain't keeping me up
all night no more,
You're not here but its ok,
I assure you babe
It's alright,
You aint keeping me up
all night no more,
You're not here but its ok

Well now you got to where you wanted
like I knew you would,
Cash, car, house, it's all good,
Is the why you never come around here no more
like you did before,
Got it all thats the way it seems
looks like you lived your dream,
And I hope your life has turned out for the better now
when I'm not around

I believed in you
must have been a fool,
All my dreams are with you

CHORUS

it's alright and its ok and
it's alright and its ok and (and you're not here with me)
it's alright and its ok and (its alright)
it's alright and its ok and (its ok)
it's alright and its ok and (and you're not here with me)

CHORUS

its alright and its ok and
its alright and its ok and
it's alright and its ok and
it's alright and its ok and (and you're not here with me)
it's alright and its ok and (its alright)
it's alright and its ok and (its ok)
it's alright and its ok and (and you're not here with me)

You're not here but its ok
