When the Leaves Come Falling Down

Van Morrison

I saw you standing with the wind and the rain in your face
And you were thinking 'bout the wisdom of the leaves and their grace
When the leaves come falling down
In September when the leaves, come falling down

And at night the moon is shining on a clear, cloudless sky
And when the evening shadows fall I'll be there by your side
When the leaves come falling down
In September when the leaves, come falling down

Follow me down, follow me down, follow me down
To the place beside the garden and the wall
Follow me down, follow me down
To the space before the twilight and the dawn

Oh, the last time I saw Paris in the streets, in the rain
And as I walk along the boulevards with you, once again
And the leaves come falling down
In September, when the leaves come falling down

Follow me down, follow me down, follow me down
To the place between the garden and the wall
Follow me down, follow me down
To the space between the twilight and the dawn

And as I'm looking at the colour of the leaves, in your hand
As we're listening to Chet Baker on the beach, in the sand
When the leaves come falling down,
Oh in September, when the leaves come falling down
Oh when the leaves come falling down
Yeah in September when the leaves come falling down

When the leaves come falling down
In September, when the leaves come falling down

When the leaves come falling down in September, in the rain
When the leaves come falling down

When the leaves come falling down in September, in the rain
When the leaves come falling down

Here's a wishin well
Here's a penny for any thought it is that makes you smile
Every diamond dream
Everything that brings
Love and Happiness to your life

Here's a rabbit's foot
Take it when you go
So you'll always know
You're safe from harm

Wear your ruby shoes
When you're far away
So you'll always stay
Home in your heart

You will always have a lucky star
That shines because of what you are
Even in the deepest dark
Because your aim is true
And if I could only have one wish
Darlin then it would be this
Love and Happiness for you

Here's a spinning wheel
Use it once you learn
There's a way to turn
the straw to gold

Here's a rosary
count on every bead
with a prayer to keep
the Hope you hold

You will always have a lucky star
That shines because of what you are
Even in the deepest dark
Because your aim is true

And if I could only have one wish
Darlin then it would be this
Love and Happiness
for you

Love and Happiness  (EmmyLou Harris/Mark Knopfler cover) key of D

Come and see
I swear by now I'm playing time against my troubles-oh
I'm coming slow but speeding

Do you wish a dance, and while I'm in the front
the play on time is won
Oh but the difficulty's coming here

I will go in this way
and I'll find my own way out
I won't tell you what to be
But its comin to much more
Me
All at once the ghosts come back, they're reeling in you now
What if they came down crushing
Yeah, only waiting
(key change) 
I wanted to stay
I wanted to play
I wanted to love you
I'm only this far and only tomorrow will lead the way
I'm comin waltzing back and moving into your head
Please
I wouldn't pass this by
But I wouldn't take more than I need
what sort of man goes by
I will bring you water
Why can't you ever be glad
It melts into wonder
I came in praying for you
Why won't you run into the rain and play
Let the tears splash all over you.

Am7, Bm7, Em7 D sus-            I will go in....... GDC

Stay

Lisa Loeb

You say I only hear what I want to
You say I talk so all the time so.

And I thought what I felt was simple,
And I thought that I don't belong,
And now that I am leaving,
Now I know that I did something wrong 'cause I missed you.
Yeah, I missed you.

And you say I only hear what I want to:
I don't listen hard,
I don't pay attention to the distance that you're running
Or to anyone, anywhere,
I don't understand if you really care,
I'm only hearing negative: no, no, no (bad)

And so I, I turned the radio on, I turned the radio up
And this woman was singin' my song:
The lover's in love and the other's run away,
The lover is cryin' 'cause the other won't stay.

Some of us hover when we weep for the other who was
Dying since the day they were born.
Well, this is not that:
I think that I'm throwing, but I'm thrown.

And I thought I'd live forever, but now I'm not so sure.

You try to tell me that I'm clever,
But that won't take my anyhow, or anywhere with you.

You said that I was naive,
And I thought that I was strong.
I thought, "hey, I can leave, I can leave."
Oh but now I know that I was wrong, 'cause I missed you.

You said, "I caught you 'cause I want you and one day I'll let you go."
You try to give away a keeper, or keep me 'cause you know you're just so scared to lose.
And you say, "Stay."

You say I only hear what I want to


Stay   (Lisa Loeb cover)

For so long for this night I've prayed
That a star would guide you my way
To share with me this special day
Where a ribbon's in the sky
For our love

This is not a coincidence
and far more than a lucky chance
but what it is 
that was always meant
is a ribbon in the sky for our love

We can't lose with God on our side
we'll find strength in each tear we cry
from now on it will be you and I
and a ribbon in the sky
ribbon in the sky
ribbon in the sky
for our love

Ribbon in the Sky- Stevie Wonder cover (for Brandon)

Maybe different but remember
 Winters warm where you and i
 Kissing whiskey by the fire 
 With the snow outside
 And when the summer comes
 In the river
 Swims at midnight
 Shiver cold
 Touch the bottom
 You and I
 With muddy toes

 Stay or leave
 I want you not to go
 But you should
 It was good as good goes
 Stay or leave
 I want you not to go
 But you did

 Wake up naked drinking coffee
 Making plans to change the world
 While the world is changing us
 It was good good love
 You used to laugh under the covers
 Maybe not so often now
 But the way I used to laugh with you
 Was loud and hard

 Stay or leave
 I want you not to go
 But you should
 It was good as good goes
 Stay or leave
 I want you not to go
 But you did

 So what to do
 With the rest of the day's afternoon hey
 Isn't it strange how we change
 Everything we did
 Did I do all that i should

 That I coulda done

 Remember we used to dance
 And everyone wanted to be
 You and me
 I want to be too
 What day is this
 Besides the day you left me
 What day is this
 Besides the day you went

 So what to do
 With the rest of the day's afternoon hey
 Well isn't it strange how we change
 Everything we did
 Did I do all that I could

 Remember we used to dance
 And everyone wanted to be you and me
 I want to be too
 What day is this
 Besides the day you went babe
 What day is this

Say something ( Christina Augilera cover)

I'm fifteen for a moment
Caught in between ten and twenty
And I'm just dreaming
Counting the ways to where you are
I'm twenty two for a moment
She feels better than ever
And we're on fire
Making our way back from Mars
Fifteen, there's still time for you
Time to buy and time to lose
Fifteen, there's never a wish better than this
When you only got hundred years to live
I'm thirty-three for a moment
I'm still the man, but you see I'm of age
A kid on the way, babe
A family on my mind
I'm forty-five for a moment
The sea is high
And I'm headin' into a crisis
Chasing the years of my life
Fifteen, there's still time for you
Time to buy and time to lose yourself
Within a morning star
Fifteen, I'm alright with you
Fifteen, there's never a wish better than this
When you only got hundred years to live
Half time goes by
Suddenly you're wise
Another blink of an eye
Sixty-seven is gone
The sun is gettin' high
We're movin' on
I'm ninety nine for a moment
And dyin' for just another moment
And I'm just dreaming
Counting the ways to where you are
Fifteen, there's still time for you
Twenty-two, I feel her too
Thirty-three, you're on your way
Every day's a new day
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Fifteen, there's still time for you
Time to buy and time to choose
Hey fifteen, there's never a wish better than this
When you only got hundred years to live
