paul anka - diana

I'm so young and you're so old
This, my darling, I've been told
I don't care just what they say
'Cause forever I will pray
You and I will be as free
As the birds up in the trees
Oh, please stay by me, Diana

Thrills I get when you hold me close
Oh, my darling, you're the most
I love you but do you love me
Oh, Diana, can't you see
I love you with all my heart
And I hope we will never part
Oh, please stay with me, Diana

Oh, my darlin', oh, my lover
Tell me that there is no other
I love you with my heart
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Only you can take my heart
Only you can tear it apart
When you hold me in your loving arms
I can feel you giving all your charms
Hold me, darling, ho-ho hold me tight
Squeeze me baby with-a all your might
Oh, please stay by me, Diana
Oh, please, Diana
Oh, please, Diana
Oh, please, Diana

paul anka - hold me till the morning comes

Two broken hearts
Neither one knows what to say
Both falling from love,
But not quite all the way
Look at us now
We're reachin' back for yesterday
Wanting to know,
If the other wants to stay
After all,
I'm the one who said we're through
Now I can't live without you, anymore
Out there lost,
Is a dream that can come true
Is it worth the reachin' for?
Don't you want me anymore?

Darlin',
Hold me till the mornin' comes
Until I see you smile
Take all the sadness from your eyes
Hold me till the mornin' sun
Let me stay we've just begun
Ooh..........

Where shall we start?
A tender word that we can share
And if we believe,
In time we will get there
Look at us now,
Wanting more than words can say
Both falling in love
But this time all the way
Out there lost,
Are the words "I still love you"
Are they worth the reachin' for?
Do you love me anymore?

Darlin'
Hold me till the mornin' comes
Until I see you smile
Take all the sadness from your eyes
Hold me till the mornin' sun
Let me stay, we've just begun
I want to stay with you

Hold me till the mornin' comes
Until I see you smile
Take all the sadness from your eyes
Hold me till the mornin' sun
Let me stay, we've just begun
I want to stay with you

Would you love me in the mornin'?
Will you still be there in the mornin'?
Or would you leave without a warnin'?
Say you love me too

Would you love me in the mornin'?
Will you still be there in the mornin'?
Or would you leave without a warnin'?
Say you love me too
(Repeat to fade)

paul anka - my home town

I took a little trip to my home town
I only stopped to look around
And as I walked along the thorough-fare
There was music playing ev'rywhere
The music came from within my heart
How did it happen how did it start
I only know that I fell in love
I guess the answer lies up above
Oh what a feeling
My heart was reeling
The bells were ringing
The birds were singing

And so the music keep goes on and on
And through the night until the break of dawn
I hear a bird up in the tree
He sings a pretty little melody

Oh what a feeling
My heart was reeling
The bells were ringing
The birds were singing

And so the music keep goes on and on
And through the night until the break of dawn
I hear a bird up in the tree
He sings a pretty little melody
ya-ya-ya-ya......

paul anka - both sides now

Rows and floes of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons ev'rywhere
I've looked at clouds that way

But now they only block the sun
They rain and snow on ev'ryone
So many things I would have done
But clouds got in my way
I've looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
It's cloud illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all

Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels
The dizzy dancing way you feel
As ev'ry fairy tale comes real
I've looked at love that way

But now it's just another show
You leave 'em laughing when you go
And if you care, don't let them know
Don't give yourself away

I've looked at love from both sides now
From give and take, and still somehow
It's love's illusions I recall
I really don't know love at all

Tears and fears and feeling proud
To say "I love you" right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
I've looked at life that way

But now old friends are acting strange
They shake their heads, they say I've changed
Well something's lost, but something's gained
In living ev'ry day

I've looked at life from both sides now
From win and lose and still somehow
It's life's illusions I recall
I really don't know life at all
I've looked at life from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
It's life's illusions I recall
I really don't know life at all

paul anka - hold me thrill me kiss me

Hold me, Thrill me, Kiss me

Hold me, hold me
Never let me go until you've told me, told me
What I want to know and then just hold me, hold me
Make me tell you I'm in love with you

Thrill me, thrill me
Walk me down the lane where shadows will be, will be
Hiding lovers just the same as we'll be, we'll be
When you make me tell you I love you

They told me be sensible with your new love
Don't be fooled thinking this is the last you'll find
But they never stood in the dark with you love
When you take me in your arms and drive me slowly
Out of my mind

Kiss me, kiss me
And when you do I'll know that you will miss me, miss me
If we ever say I do, so kiss me, kiss me
Make me tell you I'm in love with you

Kiss me, Kiss me
And when you do I'll know that you will miss me, miss me
If we ever say I do, so kiss me, kiss me
Make me tell you I'm in love with you

Never, never, never let me go

paul anka - my eyes adored you

My eyes adored you
Though I never laid a hand on you,
My eyes adored you
Like a million miles away from me you couldn't see
How I adored you:
So close, so close and yet so far away

Carried your books from school,
Playing make-believe you're married to me:
You were fifth grade, I was sixth
When we came to be
Walking home every day over Barnegat Bridge and Bay,
Till we grew into the me and you
Who went our separate ways

My eyes adored you
Though I never laid a hand on you,
My eyes adored you
Like a million miles away from me you couldn't see
How I adored you:
So close, so close and yet so far

Headed for city lights,
Climbed the ladder up to fortune and fame,
I worked my fingers to the bone,
Made myself a name.
Funny, I seem to find that, no matter how the years
unwind,
Still I reminisce about the girI miss
And the love I left behind...

My eyes adored you
Though I never laid a hand on you,
My eyes adored you
Like a million miles away from me you couldn't see
How I adored you:
So close, so close and yet so far

All my life I will remember how warm and tender
We were way back then
Though I'm feeling sad regrets I know I won't ever
forget
You, my childhood friend

My eyes adored you
Though I never laid a hand on you,
My eyes adored you
Like a million miles away from me you couldn't see
How I adored you:
So close, so close and yet so far

paul anka - my way

And now the end is near
So I face the final curtain
My friend, I'll say it clear
I'll state my case of which I'm certain

I've lived a life that's full
I've traveled each and every highway
And more, much more than this
I did it my way

Regrets, I've had a few
But then again, too few to mention
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exception

I planned each charted course
Each careful step along the byway
Oh, and more, much more than this
I did it my way

Yes, there were times, I'm sure you know
When I bit off more than I could chew
But through it all when there was doubt
I ate it up and spit it out
I faced it all and I stood tall
And did it my way

I've loved, I've laughed and cried
I've had my fails, my share of losing
And now as tears subside
I find it all so amusing
To think I did all that
And may I say, not in a shy way
Oh, no, no not me
I did it my way

For what is a man, what has he got
If not himself, then he has not
To say the words he truly feels
And not the words he would reveal
The record shows I took the blows
And did it my way
The record shows I took the blows
And did it my way

paul anka - waiting for a girl like you

So long
I've been looking too hard, I've waiting too long
Sometimes I don't know what I will find
I only know it's a matter of time
When you love someone
When you love someone

It feels so right, so warm and true
I need to know if you feel it too

Maybe I'm wrong
Won't you tell me if I'm coming on too strong?
This heart of mine has been hurt before
This time I wanna be sure

I've been waiting for a girl like you
To come into my life
I've been waiting for a girl like you
A love that will survive
I've been waiting for someone new
To make me feel alive
Yeah, waiting for a girl like you
To come into my life

You're so good
When we make love it's understood
It's more than a touch or a word we say
Only in dreams could it be this way
When you love someone
Yeah, really love someone

Now, I know it's right
From the moment I wake up till deep in the night
There's no where on earth that I'd rather be
Than holding you, tenderly

I've been waiting for a girl like you
To come into my life
I've been waiting for a girl like you
And a love that will survive
I've been waiting for someone new
To make me feel alive
Yeah, waiting for a girl like you
To come into my life

I've been waiting, waiting for you, ooh
Ooh, I've been waiting
I've been waiting, yeah
I've been waiting for a girl like you
I've been waiting
Won't you come into my life?
My life?

paul anka - a steel guitar and a glass of wine

Just give me a steel guitar, a glass of wine
And let me drink to a love I thought was mine
A love I thought was true to me
But now I'm drinkin' to her memory
A steel guitar and a glass of wine
While my tears they glisten and the candles shine
Oh candle-glow, oh candle bright
Tell me who she holds tonight

And bring me wine
And make the music mine
Play another set
So that I'll forget

Mmm, bring me a steel guitar and a glass of wine
And let me toast her just one more time
Oh candle-glow, before you dim
Tell her what a fool she's been

And bring me wine
Make the music mine
Play another set
So that I'll forget

And bring me a steel guitar and a glass of wine
And let me toast her just one more time
Oh candle-glow, before you dim
Tell her what a fool she's been

And one more thing before I go
Here's a secret, I still love her so
And one more thing before I go
Here's a secret, I still love her so
And one more thing before I go
Here's a secret, I still love her so
And one more thing before I go
Here's a secret, I still love her so

paul anka - adam and eve

In the garden of Eden, a long time ago
yeah, there was a story I'm sure you will know
I'm sure you remember, I know you believe
the story of Adam and Eve

In the garden of Eden where live began
yes the very beginning of woman and man
I'm sure you remember and I know you believe
the story of Adam and Eve

They were in the garden while they both fell in love
sheltered by the guiding hand of the one above
Life was filled with happiness until one day around
a very great temptation, you know how it goes

In the garden of Eden, a long time ago
there was a story I'm sure you will know
I'm sure you remember, I'm sure you believe
the story of Adam and Eve

In the garden of Eden, a long time ago, such a story ...

paul anka - against the wind

It seems like yesterday
But it was long ago
Janey was lovely, she was the queen of my nights
There in the darkness with the radio playlng low
And the secrets that we shared
The mountains that we moved
Caught like a wildfire out of control
Till there was nothing left to burn and nothing left to prove

And I remember what she said to me
How she swore that it never would end
I remember how she held me oh so tight
Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then

Against the wind
We were runnin' against the wind
We were young and strong, we were runnin'
against the wind

And the years rolled slowly past
And I found myself alone
Surrounded bv stranners I thought were my friends
I found myself further and further from my home
And I guess I lost my way
There were oh so many roads
I was living to run and running to live
Never worried about paying or even how much I owed
Moving eight miles a minute for months at a time
Breaking all of the rules that would bend
I began to find myself searchin'
Searching for shelter again and again
Against the wind
A little something against the wind
I found myself seeking shelter against the wind

Well those drifters days are past me now
I've got so much more to think about
Deadlines and commitments
What to leave in, what to leave out

Against the wind
I'm still runnin' against the wind
Well I'm older now and still
Against the wind

paul anka - all of a sudden my heart sings

The secret way you hold my hand
to let me know you understand
the wind and rain upon your face
the breathless world of your embrace
your little laugh and handsome cries
the star light gleaming in your eyes
remembering all those little things
all of a sudden my heart sings

All of a sudden my heart sings
when I remember little things
the way you dance and hold me tight
the way you kiss and say good night
the crazy things we say and do
the fun it is to be with you
the magic thrill that's in your touch
oh darling I love you so much

The secret way you hold my hand
to let me know you understand
the wind and rain upon your face
the breathless world of your embrace
your little laugh and handsome cries
the star light gleaming in your eyes
remembering all those things
all of a sudden my heart sings

paul anka - anytime

Crazy love it's just a crazy love
I love you so but I still know
It's a crazy love

Crazy love it's just a crazy love
What must I do to get through to you
Oh my crazy love

Everything's wrong heaven above
Set me free from this crazy love

Don't don't don't don't you see
What you are doing to me
You upset my heart right from the start
With your crazy love
Crazy love,crazy love
Crazy love,crazy love

paul anka - bad day

Where is the moment we needed the most
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
You tell me your blue skies fade to grey
You tell me your passion's gone away
And I don't need no carryin' on

You stand in the line just to hit a new low
You're faking a smile with the coffee to go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces everytime
And I don't need no carryin' on

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

Well you need a blue sky holiday
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carryin' on

You had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day

(Oh.. Holiday..)

Sometimes the system goes on the blink
And the whole thing turns out wrong
You might not make it back and you know
That you could be well oh that strong
And I'm not wrong (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeeeah)

So where is the passion when you need it the most
Oh you and I
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
You've seen what you like
And how does it feel for one more time
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

(Oh, yeah, yeaaah, yeah)
Had a bad day
(Oh, had a bad day)
Had a bad day
(Oh, yeah, yeah, yeeeeah)
Had a bad day
(Oh, had a bad day)
Had a bad day...
Had a bad day...
