I’ve been away too long
How can I say to you... I love somebody new... You were so good to me, always...
And when I see your eyes... I can't go on with lie...
It breaks your heart, But I just can't hide it... Oh, no...
I I've been away too long... Now I just can't go on... I've been away too...
I, I've been away too long No, I can't be so strong I've been away too long
Don't look that way to me... It hurts you, so I see...
But I just can't go on with lie... I gave you all I had...
So there is nothing left... I may be wrong, But I better go now... Oh, no...
I, I've been away too long... Now I just can't go on... I've been away too...
I, I've been away too long No, I can't be so strong I've been away too
La, La, La, La, La, La, La... La, La, La, La, La, La...
I've been away, too long...
If I only had time
If I only had time Only time
So much to do If I only had time If I only had time Dreams to pursue If I only had time They'd be mine
Time like the wind Those are hurrying by And the hours just fly Where to begin There are mountains I'd climb If I'd time
Since I met you I've glored Life really is too short Lovin' you So many things we could make true A whole century Isn't enough to satisfy me
So much to do If I only had time If I only had time Dreams to pursue If I only had time They'd be mine Mmm mmm mmm Mmm mmm mmm mmm
Mmm mmm mmm mmm
Mmm mmm mmm If I only had time Only time
Mmm mmm mmm Mmm mmm mmm mmm Mmm mmm mmm mmm
I've been away too long

Jangan Terulang Lagi
Senja kali ini, mencekam dalam di hati
Kulihat bunga tersendiri, terpendam tiada berseri
Apakah yang kan terjadi Bila datang pagi nanti Embun kecil menerangi Bersama sang matahari
Seperti harapan dalam hati, slalu datang hari demi hari Berlalu sedih berkali-kali, tapi janganlah terulang lagi
jangan jangan, jangan lagi
Adios Amigo
Adios amigo, adios my friend
The road we have travelled has come to an end When two love the same love, one love has to lose And it's you who she longs for, it's you she will choose Adios compadre, what must be must be
Remember to name one muchacho for me I ride to the Rio, where my life I must spend Adios amigo, adios my friend
Adios compadre, let us shed no tears
May all your mañanas bring joy through the years Away from these memories, my life I must spend Adios amigo, adios my friend
When a Blind Man Cries
If you're leaving, close the door I'm not expecting people, anymore Hear me grieving, lying on the floor
Whether I'm drunk or dead, I really ain't too sure I'm a blind man
I'm a blind man
And my world is pale When a blind man cries Lord, you know
There ain't a sadder tale Had a friend once, in a room
Had a good time, but it ended much too soon In a cold month, in that room
Found a reason, for the things we had to do I'm a blind man
I'm a blind man
Now my room is cold When a blind man cries Lord, you know
He feels it from his soul
Sebiduk di Sungai Musi
Terpesona aku melihat wajahnya Tatkala aku duduk di dekatnya Sebiduk seiring kali menyebrang Berperahu ke sebrang sungai Musi Kan ku tegur dia namun hati enggan Tak sabar hati ingin menyapanya Tak segan-segan aku meliriknya Sekilas tampak olehku senyumnya Ombak pun datang
Perahuku pun oleng Tersentuhlah Ia olehku
Terkejut tiba-tiba Ia menolehku
Ku genggam tangannya yang halus mulus Namun sayang seribu kali sayang
Sang biduk telah merapat ke pantai Kan ku tegur dia namun hati enggan Tak sabar hati ingin menyapanya Tak segan-segan aku meliriknya Sekilas tampak olehku senyumnya Ombak pun datang
Perahuku pun oleng Tersentuhlah Ia olehku
Terkejut tiba-tiba Ia menolehku
Ku genggam tangannya yang halus mulus Namun sayang seribu kali sayang
Sang biduk telah merapat ke pantai
Green Green Grass of Home
The old hometown looks the same As I step down from the train
And there to meet me is my mama and papa Down the road I look and there runs Mary, Hair of gold and lips like cherries
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home
Yes, they'll all come to meet me Arms reaching, smiling sweetly It's good to touch the green, green grass of home
The old house is still standing Though the paint is cracked and dry And there's that old oak tree that I used to play on
Down the lane, I walk with my sweet Mary Hair of gold and lips like cherries
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home
Then I awake and look around me At four grey walls that surround me And I realize, yes, I was only dreaming
For there's a guard and there's a sad, old padre On and on, we'll walk at daybreak
Again, I'll touch the green, green grass of home
Yes, they'll all come to see me In the shade of that old oak tree As they lay me 'Neath the green, green grass of home
I Started a Joke
I started a joke Which started the whole world crying But I didn't see That the joke was on me, oh no
I started to cry Which started the whole world laughing Oh, if I'd only seen That the joke was on me
I looked at the skies Running my hands over my eyes
And I fell out of bed Hurting my head from things that I'd said 'Til I finally died Which started the whole world living
Oh, if I'd only seen That the joke was on me
I looked at the skies Running my hands over my eyes
And I fell out of bed Hurting my head from things that I'd said 'Til I finally died Which started the whole world living
Oh, if I'd only seen, oh yeah That the joke was on me, oh no
That the joke was on me Oh, no, no, no
\Don’t Forget To Remember
Oh my heart won't believe that you have left me I keep telling my self that it's true
I can get over anything you want my love But I can't get myself over you
Don't forget to remember me
And the love that used to be I still remember youI love you In my heart lies a memory to tell the stars above
Don't forget to remember me my love On my wall lies a photograph of you girl Though I try to forget you somehow
You're the mirror of my soul so take me out of my hole Let me try to go on living right now
Don't forget to remember me And the love that used to be I still remember you
I love you
In my heart lies a memory to tell the stars above Don't forget to remember me my love
Rain and Tears
Rain and tears are the same
But in the sun, you've got to play the game
When you cry in winter time
You can pretend it's nothing, but the rain
How many times I've seen
Tears coming from your blue eyes?
Rain and tears are the same
But in the sun, you've got to play the game
Give me an uncertain love (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
I need an uncertain love (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Rain and tears, in the sun
But in your heart, you feel the rainbow waves
Rain and tears, both are shown
For in my heart, there'll never be a sun
Rain and tears are the same
But in the sun, you've got to play the game
SOLDIER OF FORTUNE
I have often told you stories about the way I lived the life of a drifter Waiting for the day
When I'd take your hand and sing you songs Then maybe you would say "Come lay with me and love me" And I would surely stay
But I feel I'm growing older And the songs that I have sung
Echo in the distance Like the sound Of a windmill going round
Guess I'll always be a soldier of fortune
Many times I've been a traveller I looked for something new
In days of old when nights were cold I wandered without you
But those days I thought my eyes had seen you standing near
Though blindness is confusing It shows that you're not here
Now I feel I'm growing older And the songs that I have sung
Echo in the distance Like the sound
Of a windmill going round Guess I'll always be a soldier of fortune
I can hear the sound Of a windmill going round
Guess I'll always be a soldier of fortune
I guess I'll always be
A soldier of fortune
LEA
How do you feel, loving a rose?
Guarding her life day and night
How do you feel, losing that rose?
Killed by a storm you can't fight
Girl, now you're gone
(Leaving, leaving behind) The memory of your smile that will never leave my mind
Where are those words I heard you say?
You would forever be mine
Where are those words?
How can I pray, losing a love so divine?
Girl, now you're gone
(Leaving, leaving behind) The memory of your smile that will never leave my mind
(Lea, Lea) Girl, now you're gone
(Leaving, leaving behind) The memory of your smile that will never leave my mind
(Lea, Lea) Girl, now you're gone
(Leaving, leaving...)
