I’ll be so lonely without you
Biding my time, loving you, lady
Driving me crazy
Watching the trains go by
Loving you, lady
You ain’t seen the last of me
I’ll be around till eternity
You ain’t seen the last of me
Lady, I’ll be around till eternity for you

No use in calling me back, girl, I’ve got to go
Look from your window, watch as your loves grow
Wondering if I’ll be home, watch as your loves grow
You ain’t seen the last of me
I’ll be around till eternity
You ain’t seen the last of me
Lady, I’ll be around till eternity for you

I’ll be so lonely without you
Biding my time, loving you, lady
Driving me crazy
Watching the trains go by, loving you, lady
You ain’t seen the last of me
I’ll be around till eternity
You ain’t seen the last of me
Lady, I’ll be around till eternity

You ain’t seen the last of me
I’ll be around till eternity…

 

I’ve Got You Under My Skin

1998 – Barry Sings Sinatra Bootleg

 

 


I’ve got you under my skin.
I’ve got you deep in the heart of me.
So deep in my heart that you’re really a part of me.
I’ve got you under my skin.
I’d tried so not to give in.
I said to myself: this affair never will go so well.
But why should I try to resist when, baby, I know so well
I’ve got you under my skin?
 
I’d sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of havin’ you near
In spite of a warnin’ voice that comes in the night
And repeats, repeats in my ear:
Don’t you know, little fool, you never can win?
Use your mentality, wake up to reality.
But each time that I do just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin
‘Cause I’ve got you under my skin.
 
I would sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of havin’ you near
In spite of the warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats – how it yells in my ear:
Don’t you know, little fool, you never can win?
Why not use your mentality – step up, wake up to reality?
But each time I do just the thought of you
Makes me stop just before I begin
‘Cause I’ve got you under my skin.
Yes, I’ve got you under my skin.

The preacher talked to me and he smiled.
Said, ‘Come and walk with me, come and walk one more mile.
Now for once in your life you’re alone,
but you ain’t got a dime, there’s no time for the phone.’
 
I’ve just gotta get a message to you,
hold on, hold on.
One more hour and my life will be through,
hold on, hold on.
 
I told him I’m in no hurry,
but if I broke her heart, then won’t you tell her I’m sorry.
And for once in my life I’m alone,
and I’ve got to let her know
just in time before I go.
 
I’ve just gotta get a message to you,
hold on, hold on.
One more hour and my life will be through,
hold on, hold on.
 
Well I laughed but that didn’t hurt,
and it’s only her love that keeps me wearing this dirt.
Now I’m crying but deep down inside,
well I did it to him, now it’s my turn to die.
 
I’ve just gotta get a message to you,
hold on, hold on.
One more hour and my life will be through,

But I don’t care what my father might think.
 
Don’t ask me why, it’s my mind and it’s right.
Don’t ask me why, it’s my mind,
It’s better, it’s better than being alone,
alone on the ground. Now I find.
 
Mother, I’ve got to join the Air Force, you see.
I’ve seen my friends and they all agree
that’s it’s better than joining the army or going to sea.

You can say what you got to say
Wherever you go, baby
I will find a way
I’m ready to go anywhere you choose
It’s up to you

You decide if I live or die
Wherever you go, baby
So will I
I’m ready to accept your point of view
It’s up to you

And there’s something about that way you smile
Every touch leaves me helpless
Every moment drives me wild
I never saw the cause that made you lie
And never said goodbye… inside

You can go where you got to go
Wherever you lead, baby
I will follow
I’m ready to be all you want me to
It’s up to you

AndI walk in the dark and the candle burns
Out of place, your face is missing
Come the day that you return
My love on hold
This moment stops in time
The reason and the rhyme
Inside

You can go where you got to go
Where you lead, baby
I will follow
I’m ready to be all you want me to
It’s up to you

I want it, good loving, bring out the beast in me.
I want it, good loving,wanna make your heart sing,

You made a promise -so did I,
you’d never leave me alone.
You wake me up in the middle of the night,
take what you what and you’re gone.

Tell me a reason for what I am.
I’ll never win this game you play.
You wake me up in the middle of a dream.
You make it over, that’s ok.

It takes a million years for us to
understand it all.
All the love you need is why…

It makes no difference now .
There is no other you.
I’d rather die without you
than let you go.
My seasons in the sun.
So many moments wasted.
My love is living for you
and you should know.

You make my world a better place.
But I don’t see you around, around, around.
Could there be others I’m replacing?
No more love to be found.

It takes a million years to make
you understand your heart
let my love lay where it falls.

It makes no difference now.
There is no other you.
I’d rather die without you

Baby, when I met you there was peace unknown.
I set out to get you with a fine tooth comb.
I was soft inside.
There was something going on.

You do something to me that I can’t explain.
Hold me closer and I feel no pain.
Every beat of my heart.
We got something going on.

Tender love is blind.
It requires a dedication.
All this love we live needs no conversation.
We can ride it together, ah ha.
Making love with each other, ah ha.

Islands in the stream,
that is what we are.
No one in between .
How can we be wrong.

Get away with me
to another world.
And we rely on each other, ah ha.
From one lover to another, ah ha.

I can’t live without you if the love is gone.
Everything is nothing when you got no one.
And you just walk in the night,
slowly losing sight of the real thing.

But that won’t happen to us and we got no doubt.
Too deep in love and we got no way out.
And the message is clear.
This could be the year for the real thing.

No more will you cry.
Baby, I will let you never.
We start and end as one.
In love forever.
We can ride it together, ah ha.
Making love with each other, ah ha.

Islands in the stream,
that is what we are.
No one in between.
How can we be wrong.

Far away with me
to another world.
And we rely on each other, ah ha.
From one lover to another, ah ha.

Islands in the stream,
that is what we are.
No one in between.
How can we be wrong.

Sail away with me

In the name of love and life
turn your face to the lonely night,
but you’re not alone
when she calls you home.

And this your world is on the edge,
as good as lost but you know the way
through this faceless town
and she pulls me down.

I know the place and the time (of our lives)
so long ago,
and all through the years (never dies)
all things must pass.

Irresistible force meets an immovable object and
human animal madness and blood starts to flow.
Invisible fingers and indescribable pleasure.
I get to find my personal god.
I get to find my personal god.

God of love, god of gold,
ring of fire in the days of old,
it’s what I’m living for
and love’s the only law.

So answer mayday SOS.
Search me north south east or west.
It’s all I miss, just the one last kiss.

This is goodbye to the days (of our lives),
my fair-weather friend.
I feel your sorrow and tears (they are mine),
I share to the end.

Irresistible force meets an immovable object and
human animal magic, how far can you go?
The rolling of thunder and you decide what you’re after.

I get to find my personal god.
I get to find my personal god.

I surrender, all or nothing.
You must spread your wings and fly.

I know the place and the time (of our lives),
my fair-weather friend.
I feel your sorrow and tears (they are mine),
I share to the end.

When an irresistible force meets an immovable object and
human animal madness and blood starts to flow,
there’s bound to be a heartbreak,
you make it the hard way.

I surrender, all or nothing
You must spread your wings and fly.

Transcript by Alan Vasey


The way that you used everything that god gave you
I gave you my heart like a child, one moment you took me to heaven
Took me back to earth and then before I woke up to the fact I was small you took me back to heaven again

And I remember the Indian summer how you held me, how you loved me (Loved me loved me)

The world may give me a million reasons but reasons don’t make it wrong
Every lesson I learned has a price in return I was lost in my youth and to tell you the truth
I was empty and you filled me with a glow of love a loving loves may die
Just to hear you that sees me through, oh what I’d give to re-live all the Indian Summers with you

So many hearts have been broke
You had no trouble with mine like a fool I was there for the taking (but then)
It was only a matter of time you can lie in the sun with the warm wind blowing
Just knowing you’ve already paid but you can’t live alone in an Indian Summer at 110 in the shade

And I remember (and I remember) The Indian Summer
How you held me in the moonlight

We were riding along on a silver dream never dreaming it off our head
and if I’d known I’d lose you the moment I found you I’d love you all over again

Cos I’m still empty (I’m still empty) Come fill me ( Come fill me)
With a fire of love your flame will follow flame Cos it’s all I want to do

Oh what I’d give to re-live all the Indian Summers with you
Oh what I’d give to re-live all the Indian Summers with you
Oh what I’d give to re-live all the Indian Summers with you
Oh what I’d give to re-live all the Indian Summers with you

passing by the orchid of my age
So I’m older neither hand nor shoulder
tapestries of you fallin’ to view

Irons in the fire
but my flames are getting higher
it seems I’m just a hopeless case without you

without your face, I’m an empty place
without your voice, I’m a helpless choice

why am I still alive ?
when you’re not there I can’t survive
mentally on the hole you stole my soul

still I will cry, for the night you’ve said goodbye,
and every tear will clearly bear your name!!!

Irons in the fire
but my flames are getting higher
it seems I’m just a hopeless case without you

without your face, I’m an empty place

Three more all for fine Indian gin and whisky dry,
fine Indian gin and whisky dry.
 
Small town, closed down,
there’s nowhere else around to try.
Disturbingly a voice would cry:
‘Go home, no loan.
You’ll have you gin and whisky dry,
you’ll have your gin and whisky dry’.
 
Four, ten, four men
lining up for their handy brandy.
All’s gone, you’re none,
came the bartender’s reply.
But I’ve tried and I’m tied
to Indian gin and whisky dry,
to Indian gin and whisky dry….
