    Somewhere over the rainbow,
    way up high,
    birds fly over the rainbow,
    Why, then Oh why can't I?
    

    
    
    Some day I'll wish upon a star
    and wake up where the clouds are far behind me
    where troubles melt like lemon drops
    and way above the chimney tops
    is where you'll find me.
    

    Somewhere over the rainbow
    skys are blue.
    and the dreams that you dare to dream
    really do come true.

    Oh, I stuck my head in a little skunks hole,
    And the little skunk said, upon my soul,
    "Take it out, take it out, take it out,
    Remove it."
    
    Oh, I didn't take out so the little skunk said
    "If you don't take it out you'll wish you had."
    "Take it out, take it out, <sssssssssssssssst>"
    I removed it.

    The devil went down to Georgia
    He was lookin' for a soul to steal
    He was in a bind cuz he was way behind
    He was willin' to make a deal
    
    When he came across this young man
    sawin' on a fiddle and palyin' it hot
    and the devil jumped up on a hicory stump
    and said 'boy let me tell you what'
    
    "I guess you didn't know it,
    but I'm a fiddle player to
    and if you'd care to take a dare
    I'll make a bet with you."
    
    "Now you play pretty good fiddle boy,
    but give the devil his due.
    I'll be a fiddle of gold against your soul
    Cuz I think I'm better than you.
    
    Well, the boy said "My name's Jonny,
    and it might be a sin
    But I'll take your bet, you're gonna regret,
    'Cuz I'm the best there's ever been.

    Well, the devil bowed his head
    because he knew that he'd been beat,
    and he layed that golden fiddle
    On the ground at Jonny's feet.
    
    
    Jonny said, "Devil, just come on back
    if you ever wanna try again,
    I done told you once you son of a b!t@h,
    I'm the best there's ever been."

  Oh ...Why you look so sad?
  The tears are in your eyes, come on and come to me now.
  Don't be ashamed to cry, let me see you through, 
  'cos I've seen the dark side too,
  When the night falls on you, you don't know what to do,
  nothing you confess, could make me love you less.
  I'll stand by you.
  
  I'll stand by you.
  Won't let nobody hurt you,
  I'll stand by you.
  
  So, if you're mad get mad, don't hold it all inside,
  come on and talk to me now.
  Hey, what you got to hide?
  I get angry too, but I'm a lot like you.
  When you're standing at the cross roads, 
  don't know which path to choose,
  let me come along, 'cos even if you're wrong,
  I'll stand by you.
  
  I'll stand by you.
  Won't let nobody hurt you,
  I'll stand by you.
  Take me into your darkest hour, and I'll never disapprove.
  I'll stand by you
  
  And when, when the night falls on you baby,
  you're feeling out of love, wandering on your own
  I'll stand by you.
  
  

    I'll stand by you
    
    I'll stand by you

    It's by far the hardest thing I've ever done
    To be so in love with you and so alone
    
    Follow me where I go, what I do, who I know
    Make it part of you to be a part of me
    
    Follow me up and down, all the way and all around
    Take my hand and say you'll follow me

    When I was younger so much younger than today
    I never needed anybodys help in anyway.
    But now those days are gone I'm not so self assured
    Now I find i've changed my mind, I've opened up the door.
    
    Help me if you can I'm feelin down
    And I do appreciate you being round
    Help me get my feet back on the ground
    wont you please please help me.

Oh yeah, I know that song...  It was the Comic Relief record a couple
of years back...

Sung by Naanaaneeneenoonoo (aka Bananarama with French & Saunders)...

    Cos I'm Whaling, out on the green,
    I'll never get used to the sea,
    I'm whaling manning my harpoon not where I wanted to be.
    Cos I'm whaling feel like Jonah, never meaning you no harm
    Oh I'm whaling, next port of call back in my sweet baby's arms
    In a room, close, savouring our love while we got rest and recreation..

    If I listened long enough to you
    I'd find a way to believe that its all true
    Knowing, that you lied straight faced while I cried
    And still I look to find a reason to believe.
    
    Someone like you makes it hard to live without
    somebody else
    Someone like you makes a reason to give
    Everything about myself.
    
    If I had the time to change my mind
    I'd find a way just to leave the past behind
    Knowing that you lied straight faced while I cried
    And still I look to find a reason to believe.

I never knew Wilson Philips did a version of that song...?


H  :o)

> Learn Somethin' New Everyday, eh, H?

Yeah, sure do...!


The only song I've heard by Wilson Philips is: "Hold on".

But, I know they also made an appearance on the "Two Rooms" album which
had various artists doing cover versions of Elton John songs.  They did a
cover of "Daniel".

    You may be right..
    I may be crazy 
    But it just may be a lunatic you're looking for
    Turn out the lights
    Dont try to save me
    You may be wrong for all I know
    But you may be right
    
    
    Think of all the times you tried to
    Find someone to satisfy you
    I might be as crazy as you say.
    If I'm crazy then its true
    That its all because of you
    And you wouldnt have me any other way..

    Sittin here til morning just to pass the time
    Theres something wrong here there can be no denying
    One of us is changing, or maybe we just stopped trying.
    
    And its too late baby now its too late
    Though we really did try and Make it
    something inside has died, and I cant hide and i just cant fake it.
    
    It used to be so easy living here with you
    You were bright and breezy and I knew just what to do
    Now you look so unhappy and I feel like a fool.
    
    and its too late baby now its too late
    Though we really did try and make it
    Something inside has died and I cant had and I just cant fake it.
    
    There'll be good times again for me and you
    But we just cant stay together
    cant you feel it too
    Still I'm glad for what we had and how I once loved you.
    
    But its too late baby now its too late
    Though we really did try and make it
    Something inside has died and I cant hide and I just cant fake it.
    
    Its too late now darlin' its too late...

    Theres a BIG difference between using your common sense and being
    sensible all the time - sometimes its good to take risks to live
    dangerously and not to be sensible. I have a great deal of common sense
    (most of the time) and I think I'm fairly intelligent but now and again
    I want to break out of the restraints society puts on us and behave a
    little "out of the norm". I dont see anything wrong in that.

    You must understand though the touch of your hand
    makes my pulse react
    Its only the thrill of boy meeting girl opposites attract.
    Its physical, only logical, you must try to ignore
    that it means more than that.

    Errrrr... I think I followed that stretch ;-)  Rather deep and

    I hear babies crying
    I watch them grow
    They'll know much more
    Thank I'll ever know.
    And I think to myself, what a wonderful world..
    
    

    After your first dozen sleepness nights, you won't be so fond of babies
    crying.

    
    
    
    Just for some reason I started thinking of my old school song so I
    thought I'd share it with you...
    
    
    
    "Here in this house where we are singing thus long generations will
    come after us. Friends we shall never know will come to share this life
    of ours wondering who we were. Long after we are gone their hearts will
    tread the human pathways our endeavours make. We shall not see them but
    we can endow this place with beauty for them here and now."
