Lyrics

Brand New Tune

when you smile
the whole world smiles too
when you’re glad
i’m happy for you
don’t be sad
it’s over far too soon
when i’m feeling
cold and tired
music lifts
my spirit higher
come with me
we’ll sing a brand new tune
don’t you sweat the little things
you’re waiting for the phone to ring
it’s a silly thing
when the world
has knocked you over
look and you’ll find
a four leaf clover
get back up
you know its up to you
think of what tomorrow brings
flying high on eagle’s wings
it’s a silly thing
lift your head
and let the sun in
take a look
the tide is turning
come with me
we’ll sing a brand new tune
(Avila)

there’s a cold front coming in
search for your love but its snowed in
it feels like rain again
the weathermans my only friend
the five day forecast is looking grim
calls for steady rain and heavy wind
the dopplers on the fritz again
the weathermans my only friend
it feels like stormy weather
without your love
you know its now or never
clouds form above
the winds they start to pick up
it’s a hurricane
and now its wreaking havoc
its got your name
if i could give you a sunny day
i’d make your clouds all go away
i’d wipe away your rain
the weathermans my only friend
old man winter comes around
another blizzard we’re snowbound
this stormwatch has no end
the weathermans my only friend
(Avila)

you’ve got some nerve to come in
you’ve got to show me something
don’t be afraid to jump in
you’ve got to call it like it is
is it the way you call me
is it your touch so gently
that you’re so soft and lovely
you’ve got to call it like it is
and all i do i do for you
and all i am i am for you
and all i wish for you
are the sun
and the moon
and the stars
for you
its all for you
for you make me feel the way i do
my life was full of nothing
but then you gave me morning
and now my world is turning
i’ve got to call it like it is
is it your smile that moves me
is it your eyes so piercing
‘cause now my heart its beating
i’ve got to call it like it is
(Avila)

don’t you tell me
that the sun is coming out tomorrow
don’t you tell me it’s alright
don’t you tell me
that the rain will wash away my sorrow
don’t you tell me it’s alright
don’t you tell me
every cloud has got a silver lining
don’t you tell me it’s alright
don’t you tell me
that the stars at night are brightly shining
don’t you tell me it’s alright
don’t you tell me it’s alright
that i’ll make it through the stormy night
don’t you tell me it’s ok
and don’t you tell me it’s ok
that i’ll live to see another day
don’t you tell me it’s alright
don’t you tell me
that what doesn’t kill me makes me stronger
don’t you tell me it’s alright
don’t you tell me
‘cause i cannot take it any longer
don’t you tell me it’s alright
(Avila)

i’ve got a busy day
so many things to do
i’ve got to wash my hair
i’ve got to tie my shoe
i’ve got a busy day
i’ve got no time for you
i’ve got a busy day
so many things to do
i’ve got to read a book
and take nap or two
i’ve got a busy day
i’ve got no time for you
i’ve got a busy day
so many things to do
i’ve got to fly my kite
and paint the ocean blue
i’ve got a busy day
i’ve got no time for you
i’ve got a busy day
i’ve got no time for you
(Avila)

Little Boy Blues

momma, she doesn’t like the clothes i wear
she thinks that i don’t care
she’s always on my mind
and momma, she doesn’t like
the friends i keep
so she thinks way back
and wonders where did she go wrong
and momma, i miss you
i miss the way you held me tight
making everything alright
and momma, i miss you
and i hope you miss me too
i’ve got the little boy blues
momma, she doesn’t like the way i talk
so i don’t say much
although there’s so much on my mind
and momma, she doesn’t like the things i do
so i don’t do much
because i let my momma down
and momma, i miss you
i miss lying on your bed
i miss the way you scratch my head
and momma, i miss you
i hope you miss me too
i’ve got the little boy blues
and momma, i miss you
i miss the way you held me tight
making everything alright
and momma, i miss you
and i hope you miss me too
i’ve got the little boy blues
and she used to say
doo doo doo doo....
(Avila)

she didn’t know what time it was
she only thought that this was love
i should have told her from the start
that i was out to break her heart
and when the sun goes down
she comes up for air
you act as if you care
but are you really there
and when the sun comes up
she goes down again
she thinks you let her in
that’s when the fun begins
the cold wind blows outside
a haunting melody
oh lonely girl
you’re lonelier with me
the cold wind blows outside
a haunting melody
oh lonely girl
you’re lonelier with me
(Avila)

there’s a birdie over there
and there’s a birdie over there
there’s a birdie over there
he’s over there
he’s over there
he’s over there
come on little birdie
and sing me a song
and i promise
that i’ll sing along
but don’t be shy
and please don’t try
to fly away
come on little birdie
and sing me a song
and i promise
that i’ll sing along
but don’t be shy
and please don’t try
to fly away
there’s a birdie over there
and there’s a birdie over there
there’s a birdie over there
he’s over there
he’s over there
he’s over there
(Avila)

i didn’t know her name
but its all the same
i guess that i’m the one to blame
and though she felt it too
i didn’t know it then
so tell me what’s a boy to do
when she touched my hand
i looked into her eyes
and i knew she’d understand
she uttered not a word
but when she took a breathe
it was the only thing i heard
i didn’t know that i was lost
i didn’t know that i was lost
i didn’t know that i was lost
once upon a time
i didn’t have care
i thought that everything was fine
but when she came around
she opened up my eyes
and i knew that i was found
(Avila, Denny)

so, she said to me
i like your smile
i like your face
i like your style
don’t say a word
just take me home
so, i said to her
i know your kind
you don’t know me
but i don’t mind
don’t be afraid
you’re not alone
and every so often
i say so
so, the story goes
a simple thought
a single rose
so, i do suppose
i have to smile
‘cause it’s so
so, it’s up to me
i know its time
to make a stand
to draw the line
i never knew love
could be so hard
so, this little boy
who’s now a man
so many things
to understand
i don’t even know
where i should start
(Avila)
