Side One

1. I'm Leaving It All Up To You

I'm leaving it all up to you, you decide what you're gonna do.
Now do you want my love or are we through?
That's why I'm leaving it all up to you, you decide what you're gonna do.
Now do you want my love, or are we through?

I've got my heart in my hand, I don't understand.
What have I done wrong?
I worship the ground you walk on.

That's why I'm leaving it all up to you, you decide what you're gonna do.
Now do you want my love or are we through?
I'm leaving it all up to you, you decide what you're gonna do.
Now do you want my love or are we through?

I'm leaving it all up to you, you decide what you're gonna do.
Now do you want my love or are we through?

2. Take Me Back Again

Oh won’t you play for me
My favourite melody
Oh let me hear again
Those wonderful songs
Thinking of way back then
Oh how I can remember when
We had a lot of friends
Take me back again

Take me back again
to my hometown
I want to hear again
that sweet old sound
The only happiness I ever found
Is back in my hometown

Turn back the hands of time
The memories of yours and mine
Just let me walk around
Through the streets of the town
‘Cause when I feel alone
I think about the folks back home
All those forgotten friends
Take me back again

Take me back again
to my hometown
I want to hear again
that sweet old sound
The only happiness I ever found
Is back in my hometown

3. A Day Late and a Dollar Short

Two umbrellas up for sale, mine will leak it never fails I dial wrong numbers all the
time and always lose my dime
And with women, naturally, what I've got eyes for can't see me I set my sights
and make my run, and son of a gun, I was ...

A day late and a dollar short, all the sweet cookies in the store been bought The
prize fish in the creeks been caught everything choice is gone Might as well
travel on.

Took a job down Florida way, got hijacked to C-U-B-A
When I got back, no job no dough
Just goes to show that I'm...

A day late and a dollar short, all the sweet cookies in the store been bought
The prize fish in the creeks been caught everything choice is gone
Might as well travel on.

A day late and a dollar short, all the sweet cookies in the store been bought
The prize fish in the creeks been caught everything choice is gone
Might as well travel on.

4. Everything Good Reminds Me of You

Did you ever hear a robin sing
Did you see the roses bloom
in the spring
Did you ever see the full moon shine
Through the tall green Georgia pine

Did you ever feel a summer rain
Falling gently on the Kansas plain
Did you ever see a rainbow my love
Did you ever see a snow white dove

Everything that is beautiful
And everything that is wonderful
Everything that is pure and true
Everything good reminds me of you

Did you ever see a baby smile
Did you ever walk a country mile
Did you ever sail upon the sea
And sift the sand and Waikiki
Did you ever plant a little seed
And see it grow into the
food that you need
Did you ever hear the children sing
Did you ever hear the
church bells ring

Everything that is beautiful
And everything that is wonderful
Everything that is pure and true
Everything good reminds me of you

Everything that is beautiful
Everything that is wonderful
Everything that is pure and true
Everything good reminds me of you

5. Gone

Since you’re gone
The moon, the sun,
the stars in the sky
Know the reason why I cry
Love divine once was mine
Now you’re gone

Since you’re gone
My heart, my lips,
my tear filled eyes
A lonely soul within me cries
I acted smart
broke you’re heart
Now you’re gone

Wo, wo, wo, wo
What I’d give
For the lifetime I wasted
The love I had tasted
I was wrong
Now you’re gone

Oh What I’d give
For the lifetime I wasted
The love I have tasted
I was wrong
Now you’re gone
Now you’re gone
Now you’re gone
Now you’re gone

Side Two

1. Morning Side Of The Mountain

There was a girl. There was a boy

There was a girl, there was a boy.
If they had met they might have found a world of joy.
But he lived on the morning side of the mountain, and she lived on the twilight side
of the hill.
They never met, they never kissed.
They will never know what happiness they missed.
'Cause he lived on the morning side of the mountain and she lived on the twilight
side of the hill.

For love's a rose that never grows without the kiss of the morning dew.
And every Jack must have a Jill, to know the thrill of a dream that comes true.

And you and I are just like they.
For all we know, our love is just a kiss away.
But you are on the morning side of the mountain, and you are on the twilight side
of the hill.

And you and I are just like they, for all we know, our love is just a kiss away.
But you are on the morning side of the mountain, and you are on the twilight side
of the hill.
There was a girl. There was a boy.

2. True Love

I give to you and
you give to me
True love, true love
So on and on
it will always be
True love, true love

For you and I
have a guardian angel
On high with nothing to do
But to give to me
and to give to you
Love forever true

Woohoo baby
I really love you,
I really love you
Woohoo baby
I really care,
I really care

You and I
have a guardian angel
On high with nothing to do
(Nothing but true love baby)
To do
(Nothing but true love baby)
Oh but to give to me
and to give to you
Love forever true,
true, true love

3. It Takes Two

One can have a dream baby
And two can make
that dream so real
One can talk about being in love
Two can say how it really feels
One could wish upon a star
And two can make
that wish come true
One can stand alone in the dark
Two can make that light shine through

It takes two baby,
it take two baby
It takes two,
it just takes two

One can have a broken heart
Livin’ in misery
Two can really ease the pain
Like a perfect remedy
Oh one can really be alone in a crowd
Like an island he’s all alone
Two can make it just any place
Just like being home

It takes two baby,
it take two baby
It takes two,
it just takes two

Oh one can go out to a movie
Looking for a special treat
Two can make that single movie
Something kinda, kinda sweet, yeah
One can take a walk in the moonlight
Thinking that it’s really nice
Oh but two walking hand in hand
Like adding just a pinch of spice

It takes two baby,
it take two baby
It takes two,
it just takes two

4. The Umbrella Song

On the poor side of town
Live’s a girl no-one knows
With her worn out shoes
and her ragged clothes
Her mother tries to provide
since her father has died
But no-one even cares
 that she’s alive

And when the rain comes
down she’s never getting wet
And though the skies are grey
she’ll still be smiling yet
‘Cause in her eyes there’s no teardrops
in her heart there’s no pain
She’s got her love as
an umbrella from the rain
Oh her love is an
umbrella from the rain

On the rich side of town
live’s a boy no-one knows
In his shiney shoes and
his fancy clothes
He’s got everything he needs
if he wants to succeed
But no-one even cares that he’s alive

And when the rain comes down
he’s never getting wet
And though the skies are grey
he’ll still be smiling yet
‘Cause in his eyes there’s no teardrops
in his heart there’s no pain
He’s got his love as an
umbrella from the rain
Oh his love is an
umbrella from the rain

Isn’t life really strange
and money can’t buy
all you need to get by
All around the world
there are folks no-one knows
With their worn out shoes
and their fancy clothes
Will they find what their
looking for and open the door
To know that someone
cares that their alive

And when the rain comes
down we’re never getting wet
And though the skies are grey
we’ll still be smiling yet
‘Cause in our eyes there’s no teardrops
in our heart there’s no pain
We’ve got our love as an
 umbrella from the rain
Oh our love is an
umbrella from the rain

And when the rain comes down
we’re never getting wet
And though the skies are grey
we’ll still be smiling yet

And when the rain comes down
we’re never getting wet
And though the skies are grey
we’ll still be smiling yet

5. Let It Be Me

I bless the day I found you
I want to stay around you
And so I beg you,
let it be me

Don’t take this heaven from one
If you must cling to someone
Now and forever,
let it be me

Each time I need love
I find complete love
Without your sweet love
what would life be

So never leave me lonely
Tell me you love me only
And that you’ll always
let it be me

Each time I need love
I find complete love
Without your sweet love
what would life be
What would life be

So never leave me lonely
Tell me you love me only
Without your sweet love
what would life be

And that you’ll always,
let it be me
And that you’ll always,
let it be me
And that you’ll always,
let it be me
