When the world was on my shoulders & all hope for tomorrow was gone You took my hand &, baby You made me see there's a future for me CHORUS: I can make it with you, baby I can make it with you I can make it with you by my side & when all life had lost its meaning When my dreams had been shattered by time You touched my hand &, baby You made me see there's a future for me (chorus) I remember when I was down I'd been lost, but I've been found (repeat chorus & fade
(DeShannon, Holiday, Myers)
Brighton Hill, where the sky changes its color Hopes are high, there's no other place I'd rather be Find your dream by a tree out in the meadow Where the flowers are yellow, life is what it seems Brighton Hill is a feelin' within me Anybody goin' that way? Brighton Hill is a friend & will be Till my dying day Till my dying day I've got a lot of livin' to do I've got a lot of livin' to do Brighton Hill, with its green fields of clover That's where kindness reigns over everything around & livin' good on a bicycle Sunday You can have such a fun day up on Brighton Hill Brighton Hill is a feelin' within me Anybody goin' that way? Brighton Hill is a friend & will be Till my dying day Anybody goin' that way? Brighton Hill, a feelin' within me Anybody goin' that way? ...& fade

What the World Needs Now is Love Jackie DeShannon What the world needs now is love, sweet love It's the only thing that there's just too little of What the world needs now is love, sweet love, No not just for some but for everyone. Lord, we don't need another mountain, There are mountains and hillsides enough to climb There are oceans and rivers enough to cross, Enough to last till the end of time. What the world needs now is love, sweet love It's the only thing that there's just too little of What the world needs now is love, sweet love, No, not just for some but for everyone. Lord, we don't need another meadow There are cornfields and wheat fields enough to grow There are sunbeams and moonbeams enough to shine Oh listen, lord, if you want to know. What the world needs now is love, sweet love It's the only thing that there's just too little of What the world needs now is love, sweet love, No, not just for some but for everyone. No, not just for some, oh, but just for everyone
She loved rings & string Like music rite of spring She'd often choose it She spoke like greetings soaked in time Her autumn-colored hair was fine She wore cottons quite a lot She loved dark tea & coffee pot She lived with a dog & cat Forever yours & after that CHORUS: I remember that to Holly everyone was good No one has ever loved the way Holly could She never cared about herself the way she should No one will ever treat you like Holly would She collected dolls up-dressed & always spoke of her friend Yasmine She was fond of poetry Durelvion Cummings, E.E. She loved riding in a train & "catch me" was her favorite game She loved the yard, Bernard & Clay She only ate one meal a day (chorus twice
There can be a new tomorrow There can be a brighter day There can be a new tomorrow Love will find a way People, love, people love will find a way The days go passing by And we try to live life so carefree Wondering what is real, what do you feel There's a change that should be In the end what will win But, let's hold on and keep love strong We're living in a time Where you find we must share the burden It's a heavy load on a road that is so uncertain It may seem we're chasing dreams But let's hold on and keep love strong
I can see a new expression on my face I can feel a strange sensation taking place I can hear the guitars playing lovely tunes Everytime that you walk in the room I close my eyes for a second and pretend It's me you want Meanwhile I try to act so nonchalant I see a summer night with a magic moon Everytime that you walk in the room Maybe it's a dream come true Standing right alongside of you Wish I could show you how much I care But I only have the nerve to stare I can feel that something pounding in my brain Just anytime someone speaks your name Trumpets sound and I hear thunder boom Everytime that you walk in the room Everytime that you walk in the room
