Everyday
Every day someone finds a love, they say,
And I know it will be OK
Yeah, love will come
As it does to everyone
'Though I know it won't be too easy.
Yeah, love means together then they throw it away
Throw it away,
Is what they do every day.
But when love comes
We'll have fun
It's run, run, run, run, run.
Every day someone finds a love, they say,
And I know it will be OK
Yeah, love will come
As it does to everyone
'Though I know it won't be too easy.
Yes, when love comes
Love comes and goes within a day
So when it comes to me
I'm gonna make sure it stays
Every day.

Boulevard De La Madeleine
She said she'd come, she didn't.
I'm the one in love, she isn't.
There's no girl standing there
And there's no one to care
And the trees are so bare
On the Boulevard De La Madeleine.
It's a sad day in Paris
With no girl by my side.
Got to feeling so gladless
Like a part of me died.
Would have been so good to see her,
I never thought she wouldn't be there.
There's no girl standing there
And there's no one who'll care
And the trees are so bare
On the Boulevard De La Madeleine.
There's no girl standing there
And there's no one who'll care
And the trees are so bare
Oh I wish I knew her better,
It's not easy to forget her.
There's no girl standing there
And there's no one who cares
And the trees are so bare
On the Boulevard De La Madeleine.

This Is My House (But Nobody Calls)
This is my house
But nobody calls
When I'm there,
When I'm there.
Even a mouse
Would be welcome
To sit in my chair,
In my chair.
He can sit in any place he wants,
Be welcomed as a friend.
If I can't have human warmth
At least I can pretend, yeah.
This is my house
But nobody calls
When I'm home.
When I'm home.
It is a house
That is destined
To be all alone,
All alone.
People from the village pass by,
They don't take a glance.
They don't want to talk to me
Across the garden fence, no.
Nobody calls to see what I'm like,
Nobody sees me in the limelight.
I'm ready
And I'm waiting for
The knock on the door.
One night
I won't be surprised
If somebody calls.
This is my house
But nobody calls
When I'm there,
When I'm there.
Even a mouse
Would be welcome
To sit in my chair,
In my chair.
He can sit in any place he wants,
Be welcomed as a friend.
If I can't have human warmth
At least I can pretend, oh.

Life's Not Life
Every day of life now
Reminds me of the day. How
Come you went away
So suddenly?
It's kind of like you planned
To run and
I don't need.
Now life's not life no more,
Life's not life no more.
Time to think it over,
You were just a lover
Much more then than now
I... I've been in such a spin
I'm feeling down.
My life's not life no more,
Life's not life no...
Life's not life no more,
I've slipped up for sure.
I've slipped up
But not enough to fall.
Life's not life no more,
I've slipped up for sure.
I've slipped over
Now I'm feeling small.
Every day of life now
Reminds me of the day. How
Come you went away
So suddenly?
It's kind of like you planned
To run and
I don't need.
Now life's not life no more,
Life's not life no more.
Life's not life no more.
Life's not life no...
Life's not life no more,
I've slipped up for sure.
I've slipped up
But not enough to fall.
Life's not life no more,
I've slipped up for sure.
I've slipped over
Now I'm feeling small.
Life's not life no more.

Fly Me High
I'm up to the eyes
And I love everyone.
Today I could cry,
I could reach for the sun.
I'm walking on air
And I'm here and I'm there.
I travel the sky
But, for one, I don't care!
Fly me straight and fly me high.
Fly me straight and fly me high.
I'm up and I'm down,
I'm gone, I'm around.
I'm driving along
With no wheels on the ground.
Hang on to me tight
'Cause it doesn't last long,
A few hours more
And it'll be gone.
Fly me straight and fly me high.
Fly me straight and fly me high.
I'll leave you behind
On the streets in the gloom.
I'm up here alone
And there's plenty of room.
You won't see me,
I'll see you, I'm too fast.
Whoops, here I come,
Now I'm gone, oh I'm fast!
Fly me straight and fly me high.
Fly me straight and fly me high.
[middle 8]
I'm up to the eyes
And I love everyone.
Today I could cry,
I could reach for the sun.
I'm walking on air
And I'm here and I'm there.
I travel the sky
But, for one, I don't care!
Fly me straight and fly me high.
Fly me straight and fly me high.

Love And Beauty
I walk around with other people,
I brush their shoulders at the corner of the street,
But all they notice is their feet
It wasn't meant this way.
Then where's it gone astray?
If they could lift their eyes and see
There's people smiling just like me and I'll agree
It's not their fault because it's raining,
It's all a gamble played.
It's just another day.
Love, love, love.
Love, beauty, love.
Love, love, love.
Love, beauty, love.
It should be everybody's duty
To welcome every man as a friend.
I wish that I could change the world,
For every boy there'd be a girl for him to know
And maybe people would look up
Then they might realise
They're not the only ones alive.
Love, love, love.
Love, beauty, love.
Love, love, love.
Love, beauty, love.
It should be everybody's duty
To welcome every man as a friend.
Love, love, love.
Love, beauty, love.
Love, love, love.
Love, beauty, love.
