ben e. king - stand by me

When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we'll see
No, I won't be afraid
No, I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand
Stand by me

(Chorus:)
So darling, darling,
stand by me,
oh, stand by me
oh, stand,
stand by me
stand by me

If the sky that we look upon
should tumble and fall
or the mountains should crumble to the sea
I won't cry, I won't cry,
No, I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand
Stand by me

ben e. king - i count the tears

Na na na na na na, late at night
Na na na na na na, late at night

I have counted everyday since you've been away
It seemed like a thousand years

And at na na na na na na, late at night
Na na na na na na, late at night
I'll sit and count the tears

I have counted all your lies, all your alibis
I'm a guy believes just what he hears

And at na na na na na na, late at night
Na na na na na na, late at night
I'll sit and count the tears

She's gone and found somebody new
He may be happy now but soon

He'll be counting everyday that she's been away
It'll seem like a thousand years

And at na na na na na na, late at night
Na na na na na na, late at night
He'll sit and count his tears

He'll sit and count his tears
He'll sit and count his tears
He'll sit

ben e. king - amor

Amor, amor, amor,
This word so sweet
That i repeat
Means i adore you.
Amor, amor, my love,
Would you deny
This heart that i
Have placed before you?
I can't find another word with meaning so clear;
My lips try to whisper sweeter things in your ear.
But somehow or other nothing sounds quite so dear
As this soft caressing word i know.
Amor, amor, my love,
When you're away,
There is no day
And nights are lonely.
Amor, amor,
My love, make life divine,
Say you'll be mine
And love me only.

Amor,

De la esperanza.

Naci de dios,
Para los dos,
Naci del alma.
Sentir que tus besos anidaron en m,
Igual que palomas mensajeras de luz.
Saber que mis besos se quedaron en t,
Haciendo en tus labios la seal de la cruz.
Amor,
Amor,
Amor,
Naci de t,
Naci de m,
De la esperanza.
Amor,
Amor,.
Amor,
Naci de dios,
Para los dos,
Naci del alma.

See the stars in the sky
Shining up above
Night of love

Like the others before

You are mine once more

ben e. king - save the last dance for me

You can dance-every dance with the guy
Who gives you the eye,let him hold you tight
You can smile-every smile for the man
Who held your hand neath the candle light
But don't forget who's takin' you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darlin' save the last dance for me

Oh I know that the musics fine
Like sparklin' wine,go and have your fun
Laugh and sing,but while we're apart
Don't give your heart to anyone
But don't forget who's takin' you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darlin' save the last dance for me

Baby don't you know I love you so
Can't you feel it when we touch

Till the night is gone
And it's time to go
If he asks if you're all alone
Can he take you home,you must tell him no
'Cause don't forget who's taking you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darling,save the last dance for me

And in whose arms you're gonna be

ben e. king - i who have nothing

I, I who have nothing.
I, I who have no one
Adore you, and want you so
I'm just a no one
with nothing to give you but love
I love you.

He, He buys you diamonds
Bright, Sparkling diamonds
But believe me
Dear when I say
That he can give you the world
but he'll never love you the way
I love you.

He can take you any place he wants
To fancy clubs and restaurants
But I can only watch you with my nose
pressed up against the window pane.

I, I who have nothing
I, I who have no one
Must watch you
Go dancing by
Wrapped in the arms of somebody else
When Darling it's I
Who loves you.

ben e. king - on the horizon

On the horizon
Out where the ocean meets the sky
On the horizon
I saw a ship go sailing by
This was the ship that I'd often dreamed of
A ship made of gold with a gold sail above
This was the ship that I dreamed would someday bring my love

On the horizon
Out where the lonely seagulls cry
On the horizon
My ship of dreams came sailing by
Sailing to me with it's cargo so rare
It kept coming closer and closer I swear
Closer and closer 'til I woke up and found you there

Oh, on the horizon, the horizon, the horizon

ben e. king - first taste of love

Mmm, the very first time you kissed me
It was so thrilling
What made it so great was I knew
That your heart was willing

I never thought that
I'd give love a try
Then you came a walking by
And gave me my first taste of love

Mmm, the very first time you held me
It was so nice
I finally found this place
They call paradise

Oh, I was such a sad and lonely guy
Then you came a walking by
And gave me my first taste of love

Your lips upon my lips
Your arms around my waist
How can I forget that first date

Mmm, so keep your
Head on my shoulder
Stay real close
Baby, don't let go

Don't think of tomorrow
Let's live for tonight
Because I love you so

You see that love light
Gleaming in my eye
Swear it's gonna never die
Cause I've got my first taste of love

You see that love light
Gleaming in my eye
Swear it's never gonna die
Cause I've got my first taste of love

Swear it's never gonna die
Cause I've got my first taste of love
Swear it's gonna never die
Cause I've got my first taste of love

ben e. king - goodnight my love

Goodnight, my love
Pleasant dreams
And sleep tight, my love
May tomorrow be sunny and bright
And bring you closer to me

Before you go
There's just one thing
I'd like to know
Is your love still warm for me
Or has it grown cold

If you should awake
In the still of night
Please have no fear

For I'll be there
Oh, you know I care
Please give your love to me, dear

Goodnight, my love
Pleasant dreams and sleep tight
My love (sleep tight)
May tomorrow be sunny and bright
And bring you closer to me

Close your eyes, my love
Goodnight)
Sleep and dream of me
My love, my love, my love

My love, oh, my love
(Goodnight)

ben e. king - spanish harlem

There is a rose in Spanish Harlem
A red rose up in Spanish Harlem
It is a special one, it's never seen the sun
It only comes out when the moon is on the run
And all the stars are gleaming
It's growing in the street right up through the concrete
But soft and sweet and dreamin'

There is a rose in Spanish Harlem
A red rose up in Spanish Harlem
With eyes as black as coal that look down in my soul
And starts a fire there and then I lose control
I have to beg your pardon
I'm going to pick that rose and watch her as she grows in my garden
I'm going to pick that rose and watch her as she grows in my garden

(There is a rose in Spanish Harlem)
La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la-la
(There is a rose in Spanish Harlem)
La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la-la
(There is a rose in Spanish Harlem)

ben e. king - this magic moment

This magic moment
So different and so new
Was like any other
Until I kissed you

And then it happened
It took me by surprise
I knew that you felt it too
By the look in your eyes

Sweeter than wine (sweeter than wine)
Softer than a summer night (softer than a summer night)
Everything I wanna have (everything, everything)
Whenever I hold you tight

This magic moment (this magic moment)
While your lips are close to mine
Will last forever
Forever till the end of time

(this magic moment)
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
(this magic moment)
Oh-oh-oh-oh

Sweeter than wine (sweeter than wine)
Softer than a summer night (softer than a summer night)
Everything I wanna have (everything, everything)
Whenever I hold you tight

This magic moment (this magic moment)
While your lips are close to mine
Will last forever (this magic moment)
Forever till the end of time (magic)

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh (magic)
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh (magic)
Oh-oh-oh-oh (moment)

Oh-oh-oh-oh (magic)
Oh-oh-oh-oh (magic)
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (magic)
Oh-oh-oh-oh (moment)

Magic, oh-oh-oh

ben e. king - when a man loves a woman

When a man loves a woman
Can't keep his mind on nothin' else
He'd trade the world
For a good thing he's found
If she is bad, he can't see it
She can do no wrong
He turns his back on his best friend If he puts her down

Yes, When a man loves a woman
Spend his very last dime
Trying to hold on to what he needs
He'd give up all of his comforts
And sleep out in the rain
If she said that's the way
It´s gotta be

Well this man loves the woman
(yes I do)
I give everything I have
Trying to hold on to her kind of love
Why if can she treat me bad?

When a man loves a woman
I´ve talked about it down deep in the soul
She can bring him such misery
If she´s playing him for a fool
He's the very last one to know
Loving eyes can never see

Yes when a man loves a woman
Oh, he spends his very last dime
Trying to hold on to what he needs
He'd give up all of his comforts
Oh, that fool sleeps out in the rain
If she said that's the way
It´s gotta be

I need it down deep in the soul
