Good Old Summertime

We want to, meet you in the summertime,
In the good old summertime.
Weather’s getting warmer every day.
You know the, days are getting longer too,
Means more time to spend with you.
Come along, no reason to delay.
It’s our favorite time of year now,
Hear the birds up in the trees,
Take it just as easy as you please.
Why don’t we, take a walk and have some fun,
Spend some time out in the sun.
And listen to the good old summer sounds.
Whistling solo:
It’s the good old summertime now.
Hear the birds up in the trees,
Take it just as easy as you please.
We want to, play some ball so grab a glove,
Swing a bat, it’s the game we love.
‘Cos we’re in the good old summertime!
Then I could, hit a pitch and head for first,
Slide in second, smell that dirt,
‘Cos we’re in the good old summertime!
Good old summertime!
Good old summertime!
Good old summertime!

I Don't Know Why
02:25

I don’t know why the sky is so blue and clear,
When I look at you.
Why do the birds all sing, In sweet harmony?
Everything sounds oh so new.
I don’t know why the stars, and the moon get bright,
When I look at you.
Why is the air so fresh, and the wind’s so cool?
Everything feels oh so new.
I’m sure I don’t know why you love me so.
Why I’m the luckiest guy, I don’t know…
I love the ocean’s waves, how they call your name,
When I look at you.
Why is the rain so soft, and the rainbow’s bright?
Everything looks - so new/
I’m sure I don’t know why you love me so.
And why I’m a fortunate guy, I don’t know…
Why are my senses piqued, and I feel alive,
When I look at you?
I know food tastes so fresh, when I think of you,
Every kiss tastes - so new.
I don’t know why…

Thing Are Looking Up

Things are looking up,
And the clouds have gone away.
The sunlight is upon my face
It’s so great to feel this way,
I know life is not a race, you see.
So things are as they should be.
Things are looking up,
You’ve got to love this brand new day,
Been gloomy for so long you see,
That it’s nice to get away.
Living for today is what feels right,
So wake up and see the light.
Yesterday,
Has gone away, you see.
So live the dream
And come along with me.
Things are looking up,
It’s so beautiful today,
We’re making our own luck, you see.
Nothing can get in the way.
Living for today; it feels so right,
To wake up and see the light.
Yesterday,
Has gone away, you see.
So live the dream
And come along with me.
Things are looking up,
Yes, things are looking up,
Yes, things are looking up, you see.

It’s been raining for so long now,
But I see the skies are blue.
Started ‘bout the time you left me,
I think it’s because of you.
Maybe those aren’t rain drops falling,
Question is what are they then?
Every time I’m thinking of you,
Look, here comes the rain again.
I thought it was raining on me,
Maybe it was tears,
What I need is to get over you.
I think I might have the answer,
Maybe it’s not rain at all.
Started ‘bout the time you left me,
That the rain began to fall.
I thought it was raining on me,
Maybe it was tears,
What I need is to get over you.
My answer is, forget about you,
Things we’ve done and where we’ve been.
Because when I’m thinking of us,
Look, here comes the rain again.
Look, here comes the rain again.
Look, here comes the rain again.

Evidently, you knew that we,
Were no longer two.
I’m the last to know you left me,
Didn’t have a clue.
There was a time,
When it seemed you were mine.
And you loved me.
I’ll sure lament,
Where the good feelings went,
Evidently, yeah.
Now I’m empty, miss you badly,
Guess you’re gone for good.
Evidently, you did leave me.
Like you said you would.
There was a time,
When it seemed you were mine.
And you loved me.
I’ll sure lament,
Where the good feelings went,
Evidently, yeah.
Evidently, you knew, that we.
Let our love grow cold.
I’m the last to know you left me,
Wish I had been told.
Oh yeah. Oh yeah.

I’m on your side, don’t listen to them,
You did it right,
We’ll show them all tonight.
Only time can tell about these things,
And the happiness that you can bring,
We will have a different song to sing.
I’m on your side, can’t hear what they say,
They’ll see the light,
They all will know you’re right.
Only time can tell about these things,
And the happiness that you can bring,
They will have a different song to sing.
I’m on your side, I can confide,
That I’m on your side.
Solo:
Only time can tell about these things,
And the happiness that you can bring,
We will have a different song to sing.
I’m on your side, I can confide,
That I’m on your side.
I’m on your side, don’t care what they say,
You did it right,
It will be okay tonight.
Only time can tell about these things,
And the happiness that you can bring,
They will have a different song to sing.
They will have a different song to sing.

Looking Good BONUS

You know you’re looking good,
You know you’re looking fine,
So good I’m glad I made you mine.
You are the perfect fit,
For me, I must admit.
I think I’ll take that as a sign.
Where do you get that style?
And that bewitching smile?
So glad you’re mine and here to stay!
Friends say you’re looking good,
They say it all the time.
So good that it should be a crime.
You know you’re looking good,
Best - in the neighborhood,
How come you’re always so sublime?
Where do you get that style?
With that bewitching smile?
So glad you’re mine and here to stay!
Back when we first met, seems I could not forget.
The way my heart filled with desire.
Ever since that day, you had this certain way,
I had to stand back and admire.
You know you’re looking good,
I know it’s understood,
You know you’re way too good for me.
How can you look so bright?
When nothing else seems right?
It makes me happy don’t you see?

Just when it’s hopeless, and you think there’s nothing left to do.
Keep on believing. It will happen if you want it to!
Every way, every day.
Keep on believing in yourself; it’s gonna come true.
You’ve got that feeling and it’s building up inside of you,
(Keep on believing, keep on believing)
You know you’re smart enough at making all your dreams come true.
(Keep on believing, keep on believing)
Every way, every day,
Keep on believing in yourself; it’s gonna come true.
You know what to do, you know what to do to make a start.
Keep that hope alive, keep that hope alive and in your heart!
In your heart, there!
They all had warned you that it’s something really hard to do.
(Keep on believing, keep on believing)
You may have gotten lots of no’s but that’s not stopping you.
(Keep on believing, keep on believing)
Every way, every day,
Keep on believing in yourself; it’s gonna come true.
You know what to do, you know what to do to make a start.
Keep that hope alive, keep that hope alive and in your heart!
Keep it in your heart now!
It’s said the lucky people always seem to work the hardest.
(Keep on believing, keep on believing)
It’s such a long way to go, but you’ve seem to come the farthest.
(Keep on believing, keep on believing)
Every way, every day,
Keep on believing in yourself; it’s gonna come true.
