01. Got So Used To Loving You (Ronnie Scott / Steve Wolfe)

Hey, yeah, yeah
Waking in the early morning
Thinking of you softly
From The way my heart is hurting
You might as well have shot me
Shot me

Falling out of Heaven's highway
Landing in the ocean
Drowning in a sea of heartache
I swear on my devotion
To you

I got so used to loving you baby
Got so used to having you 'round me
I got so used to loving you baby
And baby I can't let go
I got so used to loving you baby
Got so used to touching you honey
Got so used to loving you baby
And baby I can't let go

Waking in the early morning
Thinking of your magic
Why'd you have to disappear boy?
Don't you know it's tragic
Baby it's tragic

I got so used to loving you baby
Got so used to having you 'round me
Got so used to loving you baby
And baby I can't let go

Oh, I'm loving you baby
I got so used to touching you honey
I got so used to loving you baby
And baby I can't let go

Oh, I'm loving you baby
I got so used to touching you honey
Oh-oh, I'm loving you baby
And baby I can't let go

I got so used to touching you baby
I got so used to loving you honey
I got so used to loving you baby
And baby I can't let go

02. Love Of A Rolling Stone (Ronnie Scott / Steve Wolfe)

You hate old Chicago ,in the winter time
When the cold wind blows right through you
And you said it ain't no fun
You called west a dream come true
Then one week it got the best of you
On a path lying in that Oklahoma sun
Swore if this day ever came
There'd be no strings, no playing games
Misty eyes and sad goodbyes to say

When love is gone why try to put
A finger on what happened
When somewhere down the road
It slipped away

All I ever wanted was a baby in my arms
A wedding ring and a simple thing called home
All you ever gave me was a look at some old highway
The sky above and the love of a rolling stone

I remember when you told me
That you'd always be a drifting man
And you didn't need another hungry mouth to feed
And I won't bring a child into a world between roses
And a thorn and the side of a tumbling tumbleweed

One day you may miss me
But I hope you don't feel guilty
Go chase the sun until your dying day
But inside me there's a second little heartbeat
That goes with me
And the one more thing that happened on the way

All I ever wanted was a baby in my arms
A wedding ring and a simple thing called home
All you ever gave me was a look at some old highway
The sky above and the love of a rolling stone

03. Lost In France (Ronnie Scott / Steve Wolfe)

I was lost in France
In the fields the birds were singing
I was lost in France
And the day was just beginning
As I stood there in the morning rain
I had a feeling I can't explain
I was lost in France in love

I was lost in France
In the street a band was playing
And the crowd all danced
Didn't catch what they were saying
When I looked up he was standing there
I knew I shouldn't but I didn't care
I was lost in France in love

(chorus)
Oo la la la Oo la la la dance
Oo la la la dancing
Oo la la la Oo la la la dance
Oo la la la dancing
Oo la la la Oo la la la dance
Oo la la la dancing

I was lost in France
And the vines were over flowing
I was lost in France
And a million stars were glowing
And I looked round for a telephone
To say baby I won't be home
I was lost in France in love

Repeat chorus

And I looked round for a telephone
To say baby I won't be home
I was lost in France in love

Repeat chorus till fade

04. Piece Of My Heart (Ronnie Scott / Steve Wolfe)

Didn't I make you feel like you were the only man
Didn't I give you everything that a woman possibly can
Love- But with all the love I give ya
It ain't never enough
Well, I'm gonna show ya baby that a woman can be tough
So, come on, come on, come on, come on

Break it
Break another little piece of my heart now baby
Take it
Take another little piece of my heart now honey
You can have it
Have another little piece of my heart now baby
You know you've got it, it it makes ya feel good

You're out on the street looking old
And ya know deep down in your heart that it ain't right
No, Ya never hear me when I cry at night
Though I tell myself that I can't stand my pain
But when Ya hold me in your arms, I'm singing again
So, come on, come on, come on, come on

Repeat chorus X 2

05. More Than A Lover (Ronnie Scott / Steve Wolfe)

Alone in the breeze
Fall on my knees
Give me a chance to recover
Deep in you eyes
Half of me lies
Let me be more than a lover
Let me be more than a lover

(chorus)
Oh, let it be known
You're my heart, your my home
You're the world that I wanna discover
All I can give is the way that I live
And I wanna be more than a lover
Oh, let me be more than a lover

Lovers are like
Stars in the night
Never quite touching each other
Deep in your eyes
Half of me lies
Let me be more than a lover
Let me be more than a lover

Repeat chorus

Instrumental

Repeat chorus

Instrumental

06. Give Me Your Love (Ronnie Scott / Steve Wolfe)

I can't help if if the world is going crazy
And the headlines get more frightening everyday
Just as long as I'm in there with you, baby
It's ok, it's ok

Give me your love
Give me more than enough
Oh baby, I need you now
Give me your love
Give me more than enough
Oh baby, I need you now
Give me your love
Give me more than enough
Oh baby, I need you now
Give me your love
Give me more than enough
Oh baby, I need you now

I don't usually really talk about my feelings
But with you there's such a lot I want to say
And as long as your the one that I believe in
It's ok, it's ok

Repeat chorus

Instrumental

And as long as your the one that I believe in
It's ok, it's ok

Repeat chorus X 2 then fade

07. The World Starts Tonight (Ronnie Scott / Steve Wolfe)

Tonight I'm gonna love you
Tonight I'm gonna try
Tonight I will take my foot off that brake
Cause you made me grasp
What is over is past
And the world starts tonight
Oooh Oooh Oooh...the world starts tonight

Tonight I'm gonna love you
Tonight I know I'll find
That the world still goes on
Just a part of it's gone
Cause you made me grasp
What is over is past
And the world starts tonight
Oooh Oooh Oooh...the world starts tonight

Baby, oh baby, I made a mistake
I thought love was something, they no longer made
But since you have brought back, some love to my eyes
My doubting of people, no longer applies

Tonight I will take my foot off that brake
Cause you made me grasp
What is over is past
And the world starts tonight
Oooh Oooh Oooh...the world starts tonight
Oooh Oooh Oooh...the world starts tonight

08. Here's Monday (Ronnie Scott / Steve Wolfe)

Here's Monday
And the day is just beginning
And the sun is in my eyes
And the overnight sensation of loving you so much
Has brought us to this morning of goodbyes

Here's Monday
And the truth is just beginning
To dawn up on my mind
The comfort of your body, the touching of your lips
Forevermore are leaving me behind

(chorus)

Goodbye my love
We came this far by being careful lovers
We came this far without once hurting others
Better leave ya now before we change our mind
(Goodbye my love)
(We came this far without once hurting others)
Better leave ya now before we change our mind

Here's Monday
And the day is just beginning
And your face is in my eyes
Just an ordinary morning somewhere in this world
A little bit of heaven slowly dies

Chorus

Here's Monday
And the day is just beginning
And your face is in my eyes
Just an ordinary morning somewhere in this world
A little bit of heaven slowly dies

09. Love Tangle (Ronnie Scott / Steve Wolfe)

It's a love tangle
Something we don't understand
More than a triangle
Billy, me, Bobby, and Anne
We don't understand

Billy he loves me
But I, I just don't love him
Cause I only love Bobby
But a Bobby loves Anne
Anne she loves Billy
But a his eyes are on me
But I only see Bobby
But a Bobby loves Anne

(chorus)
We've got ourselves a love tangle
Something we don't understand
More than a triangle
Billy, me, Bobby, and Anne
Looks like a love tangle
Something we don't understand
More than a triangle
Billy, me, Bobby, and Anne
We don't understand

Instrumental

Like a love story
When you find a page missing
It's a four - way heartbreaker
Cause a Bobby loves Anne

Chorus

10. Let The Show Begin (Ronnie Scott / Steve Wolfe)

I'm a woman
In hell beyond
Locked together
Living on a lonely start
But we can stay here
Like the mountains do
Like the leaves we tumble
But baby before we do, before we do

Let the show begin
Let the orchestra play
Let the dancers in
and we'll dance the night away
Let the show begin
Get me lost in your kiss
If we don't remember anything
We'll sure remember this
If we don't remember anything
We'll sure remember this

Who am I love
Who are you
Locked together
Wondering where we're going to
An old man told me
How his life just flew
And the years went quickly
But baby before they do, before they do

Let the show begin
Let the carnival start
Let the dancers in
Take your partners to your heart
Let the show begin
Let the orchestra play
If we don't remember anything
We won't forget today
If we don't remember anything
We won't forget today

Instrumental

Let the show begin
Get me lost in your kiss
If we don't remember anything
We'll sure remember this
If we don't remember anything
We'll sure remember this

11. My! my! Honeycomb (J. Szego)

Here I am in the city
With a picture of you in my head
I remember that night
The words you said
You told me I was pretty
With the moon shining down on my hair
I’m hung up on you now
But you’re not there

My! My! Honeycomb
The bees are buzzing, the birds have flown
Wild, wild honeycomb, leave my honey alone
My! My! Honeycomb
The bees are buzzing, I should have known
Sweet, sweet honeycomb, leave my honey alone

Wrote you so many letters
I was hoping you’d answer with flowers
Then I sat by myself
To watch the hours
But you didn’t come boy
Not a word, not a call, not a thing
Don’t you know how it hurts me
When you sting

My! My! Honeycomb
The bees are buzzing, the birds have flown
Wild, wild honeycomb, leave my honey alone
My! My! Honeycomb
The bees are buzzing, I should have known
Sweet, sweet honeycomb, leave my honey alone

Leave my honey alone

My! My! Honeycomb
The bees are buzzing, the birds have flown
Wild, wild honeycomb, leave my honey alone
My! My! Honeycomb
The bees are buzzing, I should have known
Sweet, sweet honeycomb, leave my honey alone

12. Baby, I remember you (Ronnie Scott / Steve Wolfe)

Sometimes, late in the night
I wonder how it is
Two people so much in love
Should end up like this

May hear you somewhere
So many world’s apart
When you think how close we were
It’s enough to break your heart

Baby baby baby
Remember the love you gave me
Baby baby I remember you
Baby baby baby
Remember the love you gave me
‘Cause baby baby, I sure remember you

Sometimes, late in the night
Holding someone new
Sometimes I have closed my eyes
And thought that it was you

Dreams, dreams of what might have been
Is living in the past
I’m just glad that I knew you once
Although it couldn’t last

Baby baby baby
Remember the love you gave me
‘Cause, baby baby I sure remember you...(x4)
