I was sitting by the phone
I was waiting all alone
Baby by myself I sit and wait
and wonder about you
It's a dark and dreary night
Seems like nothing's going right
Won't you tell me honey how can
I go on here without you?
Yes I'm down and feeling blue
And I don't know what to do, oh-oh
Ring, ring, why don't you give
me a call?
Ring, ring, the happiest sound
of them all
Ring, ring, I stare at the phone
on the wall
And I sit all alone impatiently
Won't you please understand the
need in me
So, ring, ring, why don't you
give me a call?
So, ring, ring, why don't you
give me a call?
You were here and now you're gone
Hey did I do something wrong?
I just can't believe that I could
be so badly mistaken
Was it me or was it you?
Tell me, are we really through?
Won't you hear me cry and you
will know that my heart is breaking
Please forgive and then forget
Or maybe darling better yet, oh-oh
Ring, ring, why don't you give
me a call?
Ring, ring, the happiest sound
of them all
Ring, ring, I stare at the phone
on the wall
And I sit all alone impatiently
Won't you please understand the
need in me
So, ring, ring, why don't you
give me a call?
So, ring, ring, why don't you
give me a call?
Oh-oh, ring, ring, why don't you
give me a call?
So, ring, ring, why don't you
give me a call?

Day is dawning and I must go
You're asleep but still I'm sure
you'll know
Why it had to end this way
You and I had a groovy time
But I told you somewhere down
the line
You would have to find me gone
I just have to move along
Just another town, another train
Waiting in the morning rain
Lord give my restless soul a little
patience
Just another town, another train
Nothing lost and nothing gained
Guess I will spend my life in
railway stations
Guess I will spend my life in
railway stations
When you wake I know you'll cry
And the words I wrote to say goodbye
They won't comfort you at all
But in time you will understand
That the dreams we dreamed were
made of sand
For a no-good bum like me
To live is to be free
Just another town, another train
Waiting in the morning rain
Look in my restless soul, a little
patience
Just another town, another train
Nothing lost and nothing gained
Guess I will spend my life in
railway stations
Guess I will spend my life in
railway stations
(repeat and fade)
Changing, moving, in a circle
I can see your face in all of
my dreams
Smiling, laughing, from the shadows
When I hear your voice I know
what it means
I know it doesn't matter just
how hard I try
You're all the reason for my life
Disillusion, disillusion's all
you left for me
How can I forget you when my world
is breaking down
You're all I had, you're all I
want
Disillusion, disillusions now,
that's all I have
Wishing, hoping, chasing shadows
Did I see your face somewhere
in the crowd
Thinking, wondering, what you're
doing
I can stop myself from crying
out loud
They say my wound will heal and
only leave a scar
But then, they'd never shared
our love
Disillusion, disillusion's all
you left for me
How can I forget you when my world
is breaking down
You're all I had, you're all I
want
Disillusion, disillusions now,
that's all I have
Disillusion, disillusions now,
that's all I have
People need hope, people need loving
People need trust from a fellow
man
People need love to make a good
living
People need faith and a helping
hand
Man has always wanted a woman by
his side to keep him company
Women always knew that it takes
a man to get matrimonial harmony
Everybody knows that a man who's
feeling down wants some female
sympathy
Gotta have love to carry on living
Gotta have love 'till eternity
People need hope, people need loving
People need trust from a fellow
man
People need love to make a good
living
People need faith in a helping
hand
La la la la, la la la la-la, la
la la la la la la-la la la
La la la la, la la la la-la, la
la la la la la la-la la laa...
Flowers in a desert need a drop
of rain like a woman needs her man
If a man's in love and his woman
wants the moon
Then he'll take it down if he
can
Somebody who loves you and somebody
who cares
Isn't that what you call a friend?
Gotta have love to carry on living
Isn't it easy to understand
People need hope, people need loving
People need trust from a fellow
man
People need love to make a good
living
People need faith in a helping
hand
La la la la, la la la la-la, la
la la la la la la-la la la
La la la la, la la la la-la, la
la la la la la la-la la laa...
People need hope, people need loving

I saw it in the mirror, I saw it
in my face
That I'm no longer needed, anyone
can take my place
I saw it in the mirror when I
look into my eyes
'Cause something sure is wrong
when this boy cries
(This boy cries)
I saw it in the mirror, my head
is hanging low
And I ain't too familiar with
the feelings that I show
I know you say you love me, but
I'm seeing through your lies
It doesn't really bother you if
this boy cries
(This boy cries)
I never thought I could cry for
you
But honey I will miss you 'til
the day I die
('Til the day I die)
I saw it in the mirror, I saw it
in my face
That I'm no longer needed, anyone
can take my place
I saw it in the mirror when I
look into my eyes
'Cause something sure is wrong
when this boy cries
(This boy cries, this boy cries)
Every day in the morning on her
way to the office
You can see as she catches a train
Just a face among a million faces
Just another woman with no name
Not the girl you'd remember but
she's still something special
If you knew her I am sure you'd
agree
'Cause I know she's got a little
secret
Friday evening she turns out to
be...
Nina, pretty ballerina
Now she is the queen of the dancing
floor
This is the moment she's waited
for
Just like Cinderella
(just like Cinderella)
Nina, pretty ballerina
Who would ever think she could
be this way
This is the part that she likes
to play
But she knows the fun would go
away
If she would play it every day
So she's back every morning to
her work at the office
And another week to live in a
dream
And another row of early mornings
In an almost never-ending stream
Doesn't talk very often, kind
of shy and uncertain
Everybody seems to think she's
a bore
But they wouldn't know her little
secret
What her Friday night would have
in store...
Nina, pretty ballerina
Now she is the queen of the dancing
floor
This is the moment she's waited
for
Just like Cinderella
(just like Cinderella)
Nina, pretty ballerina
Who would ever think she could
be this way
This is the part that she likes
to play
She would like to play it every
day
Nina, pretty ballerina
Now she is the queen of the dancing

This is the moment she's waited

Love Isn't Easy (But It Sure Is Hard Enough)
Do you remember the first time,
and all of your sweet sweet talk
Ain't heard it a lot since then
love
Now look at that guy, he's making
me cry
He leaves everybody and he only
says goodbye
But if I would have to choose
I wouldn't let you go
Just give it some more time and
you will see our love will grow
Darling I know
We gotta have patience
Love isn't just a sensation
Some of the time it gets rough
Love isn't easy but it sure is
hard enough
(Sweet sweet, our love is bitter-sweet)
Giving love is a reason for living
But a few things can be tough
Love isn't easy but it sure is
hard enough
(Sweet sweet, our love is bitter-sweet)
From the first moment I saw you
I've treated you like a queen
I've given you lots of presents
Now listen to that, just look
at that cat
You'd think he was an angel but
he's talking through his hat
But if I would have to choose
I wouldn't let you go
Just give it some more time and
you will see our love will grow
Darling I know
We gotta have patience
Love isn't just a sensation
Some of the time it gets rough
Love isn't easy but it sure is
hard enough
(Sweet sweet, our love is bitter-sweet)
Giving
(Sweet sweet, our love is bitter-sweet)
Love is a reason for living
(Sweet sweet, our love is bitter-sweet)
But a few things can be tough
Love isn't easy but it sure is
hard enough
(Sweet sweet, our love is bitter-sweet)
Patience
(Sweet sweet, our love is bitter-sweet)
Love isn't just a sensation
(Sweet sweet, our love is bitter-sweet)
Some of the time it gets rough
Love isn't easy but it sure is
hard enough
(Sweet sweet, our love is bitter-sweet)
Giving
(Sweet sweet, our love is bitter-sweet)
Love is a reason for living
(Sweet sweet, our love is bitter-sweet)
But a few things can be tough
Love isn't easy but it sure is

Me And Bobby And Bobby's Brother
Well there was me and Bobby and
Bobby's brother
Please take me back to that place
Where I've got all my memories,
those were my happiest days
I remember all the games we used
to play
I really do
And I went to see them almost
every day
I wanted to
Though we quarrelled at times
And had a few fights
We were the best of friends
We found a place in the sun
To have enough fun
Well there was me and Bobby and
Bobby's brother
Wildest kids you could see
We would play together
Climbing the apple tree
Yes there was me and Bobby and
Bobby's brother
Please take me back to that place
Where I've got all me my memories,
those were my happiest days
They would take me out for football
games and such
They liked to play
And I guess I didn't like it very
much
But anyway
I was happy and proud to be with
the boys
Being a little girl
I found a place in the sun
To have enough fun
Well there was me and Bobby and
Bobby's brother
Wildest kids you could see
We would play together
Climbing the apple tree
Yes there was me and Bobby and
Bobby's brother
Please take me back to that place
Where I've got all me my memories,
those were my happiest days
Well there was me and Bobby and
Bobby's brother
Please take me back to that place
Where I've got all my memories,
those were my happiest days
(Got all my memories, those were
my happiest days)
Where I've got all my memories,
those were my happiest days
(Got all my memories, those were
my happiest days)
Where I've got all my memories,
those were my happiest days
(Got all my memories, those were
my happiest days)

I was a fighter always looking
for trouble
And my life was so empty, there
was nothing left to live for
But then it happened one night
as I got into a fight
I could hear someone saying as
though he was praying
Ah-a-ah-a-a-a-ah-ah
Treat him well, he is your brother
You might need his help some day
We depend on one another
Love him, that's the only way
On the road (on the road) that
we're going
We all need (we all need) words
of comfort and compassion
Treat him well, he is your brother
Love him, that's the only way
I was a woman never thinking of
others
And my life was so lonely, didn't
care for anybody
But then I happened to meet a
begging man in the street
As I turned down his praying I
heard someone saying
Ah-a-ah-a-a-a-ah-ah
Treat him well, he is your brother
(brother)
You might need his help one day
(he's your brother)
We depend on one another (brother)
Love him, that's the only way
On the road (on the road) that
we're going (that we're going)
We all need (we all need) words
of comfort and compassion
Treat him well, he is your brother
(brother)
Look at her face, it's a wonderful
face
And it means something special
to me
Look at the way that she smiles
when she sees me
How lucky can one fellow be?
She's just my kind of girl, she
makes me feel fine
Who could ever believe that she
could be mine?
She's just my kind of girl, without
her I'm blue
And if she ever leaves me what
could I do, what could I do?
And when we go for a walk in the
park
And she holds me and squeezes
my hand
We'll go on walking for hours
and talking
About all the things that we plan
She's just my kind of girl, she
makes me feel fine
Who could ever believe that she
could be mine?
She's just my kind of girl, without
her I'm blue
And if she ever leaves me what
could I do, what could I do?
(repeat twice and fade)
I am just a girl, one among the
others, nothing much to say
Plain and simple girl, not a special
type in any way
Just one look, and you will surely
see
That the true "Miss Nobody" is
me
It's an evil world that has only
made me a girl
I am just a girl, not the kind
of woman men would like to meet
Just another girl no-one ever
looks at in the street
But today, I can't believe it's
true
When you smiled and whispered
"I love you"
Darling I could see, I was meant
to be your girl
It's a funny feeling when you get
to love someone
And thinking that he'll never
look your way
But then he says he loves you,
and life has just begun
It's so much more than any words
can say
I am just a girl, not the kind
of woman men would like to meet
Just another girl no-one ever
looks at in the street
But today, I can't believe it's
true
When you smiled and whispered
"I love you"
Darling I could see, I was meant
to be your girl
La la la la la, la la la la la-la,
la la la la laaa
La la la la la, la la la la la-la,
la la laaa
But today, I can't believe it's
true
When you smiled and whispered
"I love you"
Darling I could see, I was meant
to be your girl
Sitting in the darkest corner
In the tender light I saw her
face
She was looking so sad and lonely
Someone help me, someone save
me
I could see the look she gave
me, oh
Oh yeah, and there was one thing
only
That I knew I could do
Let's go girl
It's a beautiful place this world
Come on baby let's dance
To the rock'n'roll band
Let's go now
Let me show you that I know how
Come on baby let's dance
To the rock'n roll band
Come on baby let's dance
To the rock'n roll band
You'd been sitting there for hours
Try to hide behind the flowers
now
Baby, we could have fun together
Come on, cheer up, let's get started
No use being broken-hearted now
Oh yeah, you're gonna feel much
better
Yes I know that you will
Let's go girl
It's a beautiful place this world
Come on baby let's dance
To the rock'n roll band
Let's go now
Let me show you that I know how
Come on baby let's dance
To the rock'n roll band
Come on baby let's dance
To the rock'n roll band
