Because of you,
There's a song in my heart.
Because of you,
My romance had its start.
Because of you,
The sun will shine.
The moon and stars will say you're
mine,
Forever and never to part.
I only live for your love and your kiss.
It's paradise to be near you like this.
Because of you,
My life is now worthwhile,
And I can smile,
Because of you.
Because of you,
There's a song in my heart.
Because of you,
My romance had its start.
Because of you,
The sun will shine.
The moon and stars will say you're
mine,
Forever and never to part.

Because of you

Because of you,

There's a song in my heart.

Because of you,

My romance had its start.

Because of you,

The sun will shine.

The moon and stars will say you're

mine,

Forever and never to part.

I only live for your love and your kiss.

It's paradise to be near you like this.

Because of you,

My life is now worthwhile,

And I can smile,

Because of you.

Because of you,

There's a song in my heart.

Because of you,

My romance had its start.

Because of you,

The sun will shine.

The moon and stars will say you're

mine,

Forever and never to part.

You belong to me by Jo Stafford Wish you were here by Eddie Fisher

See the pyramids along the Nile

Watch the sun rise on a tropic isle

Just remember, darling, all the while

You belong to me.

See the marketplace in old Algiers

Send me photographs and souvenirs

But remember when a dream appears

You belong to me.

Ill be so alone without you

Maybe you’ll be lonesome too---and blue

Fly the ocean in a silver plane

Watch the jungle when its wet with rain

Just remember till you’re home again

You belong to me

They're not making the skies as blue this year – wish you were here As blue as they used to when you were near – wish you were here And the mornings don't seem as new Brand-new as they did with you Wish you were here, wish you were here, wish you were here Someone's painting the leaves all wrong this year - wish you were here And why did the birds change their song this year - wish you were here They're not shining the stars as bright They've stolen the joy from the night Wish you were here, wish you were here, wish you were here ------ instrumental break ------ Someone's painting the leaves all wrong this year - wish you were here Why did the birds change their song this year – wish you were here They're not shining the stars as bright They've stolen the joy from the night Wish you were here, wish you were here, wish you were here

Once I had a secret love

That lived within the heart of me

All too soon my secret love

Became impatient to be free

So I told a friendly star

the way that dreamers often do

Just how wonderful you are

And why I’m so in love with you

Chorus

Now I shout it from the highest hills

Even told the golden daffodils

At last my hearts an open door

And my secret loves no secret anymore.

Repeat Chorus

Love Letters in the Sand by Pat Boone Peggy Sue by Buddy Holly

On a day like today

We passed the time away

Writing love letters in the sand

How you laughed when I cried

Each time I saw the tide

Take our love letters from the sand

CHORUS

You made a vow that you would ever be true

But somehow that vow meant nothing to you

Now my broken heart aches

With every wave that breaks

Over love letters in the sand

Now my broken heart aches

With every wave that breaks

Over love letters in the sand

If you knew Peggy Sue

Then you'd know why I feel blue

Without Peggy my Paheggy Sue

Oh well I love you gal

Yes I love you Peggy Sue

Peggy Sue Peggy Sue

Oh how my heart yearns for you

Oh Peggy my Paheggy Sue

Oh well I love you gal

Yes I love you Peggy Sue

Peggy Sue, Peggy Sue

Pretty,pretty,pretty,pretty

Peggy Sue

Oh oh Peggy my Peggy Sue

Oh well I love you gal

I need you Peggy Sue

I love you Peggy Sue

With a love so rare and true

Oh Peggy my Peggy Sue

Oh well I love you gal

I love you Peggy Sue

It’s All in the Game by Tommy Edwards Tequila by the Champs Many a tear has to fall But it's all in the game All in the wonderful game that we know as love You have words with him And your future's looking dim But these things your hearts can rise above Once in a while he won't call But it's all in the game Soon he'll be there at your side with a sweet bouquet And he'll kiss your lips And caress your waiting fingertips And your heart will fly away Soon he'll be there at your side with a sweet bouquet Then he'll kiss your lips And caress your waiting fingertips And your hearts will fly away
