When I was a little girl
I had a rag doll
Only doll I've ever owned
Now I love you just the way I loved that rag doll
But only now my love has grown
And it gets stronger, in every way
And it gets deeper, let me say
And it gets higher, day by day
And do I love you my oh my
Yeah river deep mountain high
If I lost you would I cry
Oh how I love you baby, baby, baby, baby
When you were a young boy
Did you have a puppy
That always followed you around
Well I'm gonna be as faithful as that puppy
No I'll never let you down
Cause it grows stronger, like a river flows
And it gets bigger baby, and heaven knows
And it gets sweeter baby, as it grows
And do I love you my oh my

The Way You Do the Things You Do
You got a smile so bright
You know you could have been a candle

Tears of a Clown
additional: Smokey Robinson
Now if there's a smile on my face
It's only there trying to fool the public
But when it comes down to fooling you
Now honey that's quite a different subject
But don't let my glad expression
Give you the wrong impression
'Cause really I'm sad, Oh I'm sadder than sad
Well I'm hurt and I want you so bad
Like a clown I appear to be glad ooh yeah
CHORUS:
Well they're some sad things known to man
But ain't too much sadder than
The tears of a clown when there's no one around
Oh yeah, baby baby, oh yeah baby baby
Now if I appear to be carefree
It's only to camouflage my sadness
And honey to shield my pride I try
To cover this hurt with a show of gladness
But don't let my show convince you
That I've been happy since you
'cause I need to go, oh I need you so
Look I'm hurt and I want you to know
For others I put on a show
CHORUS
Just like Pagliacci did
I try to keep my surface hid
Smiling in the crowd I try
But in a lonely room I cry
The tears of a clown
When there's no one around, oh yeah, baby baby
Now if there's a smile on my face
Don't let my glad expression
Give you the wrong impression
Don't let this smile I wear
Make you think that I don't care
'Cause really I'm sad
It's only there trying to fool the public
But when it comes down to fooling you
Now honey that's quite a different subject
But don't let my glad expression
Give you the wrong impression
'Cause really I'm sad, Oh I'm sadder than sad
Well I'm hurt and I want you so bad
Like a clown I appear to be glad ooh yeah
CHORUS:
Well they're some sad things known to man
But ain't too much sadder than
The tears of a clown when there's no one around
Oh yeah, baby baby, oh yeah baby baby
Now if I appear to be carefree
It's only to camouflage my sadness
And honey to shield my pride I try
To cover this hurt with a show of gladness
But don't let my show convince you
That I've been happy since you
'cause I need to go, oh I need you so
Look I'm hurt and I want you to know
For others I put on a show
CHORUS

It's the Same Old Song
You're sweet as a honey bee
But like a honey bee stings
You've gone and left my heart in pain
All you left is our favorite song
The one we danced to all night long
It used to bring sweet memories
Of a tender love that used to be
Now it's the same old song
But with a different meaning
Since you been gone
It's the same old song
But with a different meaning
Since you been gone
A sentimental fool am I
to hear a old love song
And wanna cry
But the melody keeps haunting me
Reminding me how in love we used to be
Keep hearing the part that used to touch my heart
Saying together forever
Breaking up never
It's the same old song
But with a different meaning
Since you been gone
It's the same old song
But with a different meaning
Since you been gone
Precious memories keep a lingering on
Everytime I hear our favorite song
Now you're gone
Left this emptiness
I only reminisce
The happiness we spent
We used to dance on the music
Make romance through the music
It's the same old song
But with a different meaning
Since you been gone
It's the same old song
But with a different meaning
Since you been gone
It's the same old song
But with a different meaning
Since you been gone
It's the same old song
But with a different meaning
Since you been gone
But like a honey bee stings
You've gone and left my heart in pain
All you left is our favorite song
The one we danced to all night long
It used to bring sweet memories
Of a tender love that used to be
Now it's the same old song
But with a different meaning
Since you been gone
It's the same old song
But with a different meaning
Since you been gone
A sentimental fool am I
to hear a old love song
And wanna cry

Reminding me how in love we used to be

How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved by You)
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
I needed the shelter of someone's arms and there you were
I needed someone to understand my ups and downs and there you were
With sweet love and devotion
Deeply touching my emotion
I want to stop and thank you baby
I just want to stop and thank you baby
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
I close my eyes at night
Wondering where would I be without you in my life
Everything I did was just a bore
Everywhere I went it seems I'd been there before
But you brighten up for me all of my days
With a love so sweet in so many ways
I want to stop and thank you baby
I just want to stop and thank you baby
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
You were better for me than I was for myself
For me, there's you and there ain't nobody else
I want to stop and thank you baby
I just want to stop and thank you baby
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
I needed the shelter of someone's arms and there you were
I needed someone to understand my ups and downs and there you were
With sweet love and devotion
Deeply touching my emotion
I want to stop and thank you baby
I just want to stop and thank you baby
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
I close my eyes at night
Wondering where would I be without you in my life
Everything I did was just a bore
Everywhere I went it seems I'd been there before
But you brighten up for me all of my days
With a love so sweet in so many ways
I want to stop and thank you baby
I just want to stop and thank you baby
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
You were better for me than I was for myself
For me, there's you and there ain't nobody else
I want to stop and thank you baby
I just want to stop and thank you baby
How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you
(I Know) I'm Losing You
Your love is fading, I can feel your love fading,
girl it's fading away from me.
'Cause your touch, your touch has grown cold,
as if someone else controls your very soul.
I've fooled myself long as I can
in fear of the presence of another man.
It's there when you speak my name,
it's just not the same,
ooh baby, I'm losing you.
It's in the air,
it's everywhere,
ooh baby, I'm losing you.
When I look into your eyes,
a reflection of a face I see.
I'm hurtin', downhearted and worried girl,
'cause that face doesn't belong to me.
It's no longer your face,
someone's taken my place,
ooh baby, I'm losing you.
You try hard to hide
the emptiness inside,
ooh I baby I'm losing you.
I don't wanna lose you.
Ooh, I can tell when we kiss
from the tension in our lips,
ooh little girl, I'm losing you.
I can feel it in my bones
any day you'll be gone,
ooh baby, I'm losing you.
Oh my dear,
what happened to the love we shared?
Ooh baby, I'm losing you.
I know it's true,
there's someone new,
ooh baby, I'm losing you
girl it's fading away from me.
'Cause your touch, your touch has grown cold,
as if someone else controls your very soul.
I've fooled myself long as I can
in fear of the presence of another man.
It's there when you speak my name,
it's just not the same,
ooh baby, I'm losing you.
It's in the air,
it's everywhere,
ooh baby, I'm losing you.
When I look into your eyes,
a reflection of a face I see.
I'm hurtin', downhearted and worried girl,
'cause that face doesn't belong to me.
It's no longer your face,
someone's taken my place,
ooh baby, I'm losing you.
You try hard to hide
the emptiness inside,
ooh I baby I'm losing you.
I don't wanna lose you.
Ooh, I can tell when we kiss
from the tension in our lips,
ooh little girl, I'm losing you.
I can feel it in my bones
any day you'll be gone,
ooh baby, I'm losing you.
Oh my dear,

Ooh baby, I'm losing you.
I know it's true,
there's someone new,
ooh baby, I'm losing you

Starts to burn deep

Whisper I still love you
Until that day is here ooh I'm cryin'.
