Mad About You lyrics - Petula Clark

You have a way of seeing me
Reaching out, touching me
I never knew that love could be this way
No one else has had this power
I just want to share each sleeping
And each waking hour
Mad about you, mad about you
I'm mad about you, ooh
Mad about you, I'm so mad about you, ooh
I'm simply mad with love
I'm crazy for the sight of you
Crazy for the things we do
Give me more of the same
I'm mad about you, ooh
So mad about you, ooh
I'm simply mad with love for you

Out of my head with wanting you
All the time needing you
Losing my mind and heart and soul, I'm yours
No one else has had this power
I just want to share each sleeping
And each waking hour
Mad about you, I'm mad about you
I'm mad about you, ooh
Mad about you, I'm so mad about you
I'm crazy for the sight of you
Ev'rything I found with you
I'm like a moth 'round a flame
I'm mad about you
So mad about you

I see your face above the crowd
Loving you I feel so proud
I gotta say it again
I'm mad about you
So mad about you
I'm crazy for the sight of you
Crazy for the things we do
Give me more of the same
I'm, I'm mad about you
So mad about you
I'm crazy for the sight of you
Ev'rything I found with you
I'm like a moth 'round a flame
I'm mad about you, ooh
So mad about ......... [FADE]

The Other Man's Grass (Is Always Greener) lyrics - Petula Clark

Life is never what it seems
We're always searching in our dreams
To find that little castle in the air
When worry starts to cloud the mind,
It's hard to leave it all behind
And just pretend you haven't got a care

There's someone else in your imagination
You wish that you were standing in their shoes
You'd change your life without much hesitation
But would you if you really had to choose?

So, don't look around
Get your feet on the ground
It's much better by far
To be just who you are

The other man's grass is always greener
The sun shines brighter on the other side
The other man's grass is always greener
Some are lucky, some are not
But just be thankful for what you've got

Many times, it seems to me
There's someone else I'd rather be
Living in a world of make-believe
To stay in bed 'til nearly three
With nothing there to worry me
Would seem to be the life I might achieve

But deep inside, I know I'm really lucky
With happiness I've never known before
And just as long as you are there beside me
I know that I could ask for nothing more

Then living can start
With the love in your heart
So, with you all the time,
All the treasures I've longed for are mine

The other man's grass is always greener
The sun shines brighter on the other side
The other man's grass is always greener
Some are lucky, some are not
But I'm so thankful for what I've got

The other man's grass is always greener
The sun shines brighter on the other side
The other man's grass is always greener
Some are lucky, some are not
But I'm so thankful for what I've got

Give It A Try lyrics - Petula Clark

I will never be the one you seem to see in me
I try, God knows I try, but I don't make it, my baby
Can't you see (Can't you see) I can only be me
And ev'rything I am, I'm offering you
So throw away your fantasy and face reality like I do
Try to see the side of me that's lovin' you, baby
Try to see the side that you don't know
I could show you things you never imagined you ever would see
Why don't you give it a try (Give it a try)

I am not a fool, I've been around, I know the rules
So I smile, through it all I smile and try to take it
My baby, you need me (you need me), but you just gotta see
Affection is a dream that rarely comes true
And if you wanna touch the skies
You'll have to compromise, like I do
Try to see the side of me that's lovin' you, baby
Try to see the side that you don't know
I could show you things you never imagined you ever would see
Why don't you give it a try

Try to see the side of me that's lovin' you, baby
Try to see the side that you don't know
I could show you things you never imagined you ever would see
Why don't you give it a try (Give it a try)
Try to see the side of me that's loving you
Try-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y (Give it a try)
(Oooooh-oooooh-ooooh-ooooh) Won't you give it a try
Come on, baby, give it a try
(Ooooooh-ooooooh) Give it a try

Downtown lyrics - Petula Clark

When you're alone and life is making you lonely
You can always go downtown
When you've got worries, all the noise and the hurry
Seems to help, I know, downtown

Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city
Linger on the sidewalk where the neon signs are pretty
How can you lose?
The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares

So go downtown
Things will be great when you're downtown
No finer place for sure, downtown
Everything's waiting for you

Don't hang around and let your problems surround you
There are movie shows downtown
Maybe you know some little places to go to
Where they never close downtown

Just listen to the rhythm of a gentle bossa nova
You'll be dancing with 'em too before the night is over
Happy again
The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares

So go downtown
Where all the lights are bright, downtown
Waiting for you tonight, downtown
You're gonna be alright now, downtown

Downtown
Downtown

And you may find somebody kind to help and understand you
Someone who is just like you and needs a gentle hand to
Guide them along
So maybe I'll see you there
We can forget all our troubles, forget all our cares

So go downtown
Things will be great when you're downtown
Don't wait a minute more, downtown
Everything is waiting for you, downtown

Downtown (downtown)
Downtown (downtown)
Downtown (downtown)
Downtown (downtown)

Romeo (Salome) lyrics - Petula Clark

I studied Shakespeare when I was at school
thought Romeo was a pet
Felt if I met him, I'd act like a fool
I'd be a poor Juliet

Now that I know him
I'm not really sure
Boy, you're as charming as he
Saying the same things to all the girls
Or is it just to me

Romeo
Why am I so in love with you
Romeo
Is it you or the things you do
I've been yours from the moment you said hello
Are you mine or just only my Romeo

I studied Shakespeare when I was at school
Thought Romeo was a joy
I liked the true way he loved Juliet
just my ideal of a boy

You know I like you as my Romeo that's how I want you to be
But if you're out on some other date can you be true to me

Romeo
Why am I so in love with you
Romeo
Is it you or the things you do
I've been yours from the moment you said hello
Are you mine or just only my Romeo

Sailor lyrics - Petula Clark

Sailor stop your roaming
Sailor, leave the sea
Sailor, when the tide turns
Come home safe to me

As you sail across the sea
All my love is there beside you
In Capri or Amsterdam
Honolulu or Siam To the harbour of my heart
I will send my love to guide you
As I call across the sea
Come home to me

Don't Give Up lyrics - Petula Clark

When love seems to get you down
When you can't turn around and run
You've got to stop and face the fact
That the heartaches have just begun
Because you need love, you need love
Keep on till you know what you've won yeah!

[CHORUS:]
Don't give up, don't let it get you down
Don't give up, don't think of leaving town
Don't give up, don't run away from it
Love will be yours in the end, my friend

When someone is on your mind
And you can't find the words to say
Don't put off until tomorrow, my friend
What you know you've gotta do today
Because you need love, you need love
And in time you'll discover the way yeah!

[CHORUS:]
Don't give up, don't let it get you down
Don't give up, don't think of leaving town
Don't give up, don't run away from it
Love will be yours in the end, my friend

You know you need love, you need love
Keep on till you know what you've won yeah!

[CHORUS:]
Now don't give up, don't let it get you down
Don't give up, don't think of leaving town
Don't give up, don't run away from it
Love will be yours in the end, my friend

Now don't give up, don't let it get you down
Don't give up, don't think of leaving town
Don't give up, don't run away from it
Love will be yours in the end, my friend

[FADE]
Now don't give up, don't let it get you down

Kiss Me Goodbye lyrics - Petula Clark

We choose it..win or lose it
Love is never quite the same
I love you..now Ive lost you
Don't feel bad..your not too late

So kiss me goodbye
And I'll try not to cry
All the tears in the world wont change your mind
Theres some1 new
And shes waiting for you
Soon your heart will be leaving me behind

Linger awhile...then I'll go with a smile
Like a friend who just happened to call
For the last time..pretend you are mine
My darling...kiss me goodbye

My darling..kiss me goodbye

I Couldn't Live Without Your Love lyrics - Petula Clark

You're the only one that I rely on
A shoulder there for me to cry on
And the hours alone that I'm without you
All I ever do is think about you

No one knows that you're so understanding
Even though my love is so demanding
Everytime you look at me
Then you'll know we'll both agree
That no other love could be

I couldn't live without your love
Now I know you're really mine
I gotta have you all the time

Didn't like you much when I first met you
But somehow I couldn't quite forget you
Said you didn't want a friend or lover
That your life was happy with another
But as time went by my love grew stronger
Knew that I just couldn't wait any longer
For I couldn't let you go
And I had to tell you so
That I loved you, then you'd know

I couldn't live without your love
Now I know you're really mine
I gotta have you all the time

Now the tears are gone and I'm not cryin'
When you say you love me you're not lyin'
So when people want to stare
I know I don't really care
Just as long as you are there

I couldn't live without your love
Now I know you're really mine
I gotta have you all the time

A Sign Of The Times lyrics - Petula Clark

It's a sign of the times
That your love for me is getting so much stronger
It's a sign of the times
And I know that I won't have to wait much longer

You've changed a lot somehow
From the one I used to know
For when you hold me now
I feel like you never want to let me go

It's a sign of the times
That you call me up whenever you feel lonely
It's a sign of the times
That you tell your friends that I'm your one and only

I'll never understand
The way you treated me
But when I hold your hand
I know you couldn't be the way you used to be

Maybe my lucky star
At last decided to shine
Maybe somebody knows
How long I've waited to make you mine

Mm mm mm

I'll never understand
The way you treated me
But when I hold your hand
I know you couldn't be the way you used to be

Maybe my lucky star
At last decided to shine
Maybe somebody knows
How long I've waited to make you mine

It's a sign of the times
That you kiss me now as if you really mean it
It's a sign of the times
And a year ago I never could have seen it

Don't ever change your mind
And take your love away
Just leave the past behind
And, baby, only think of how it is today

It's a sign of the times
It's a sign of the times
It's a sign of the times
It's a sign of the times
It's a sign of the times

Colour My World lyrics - Petula Clark

You'll never see a dark cloud hanging round me.
Now there is only blue skies to surround me.
There's never been a gray day since you found me.
Everything I touch is turning to gold.

Oh, you can colour my world with sunshine yellow each day!
Oh, you can colour my world with happiness all the way!
Just take the green from the grass and the blue from the sky up above!
And if you colour my world just paint it with your love!
Just colour my world.

Just as long as I know you're thinking of me,
there'll be a rainbow always up above me.
Since I found the one who really loves me,
everything I touch is turning to gold.

So you can colour my world with sunshine yellow each day!
Oh, you can colour my world with happiness all the way!
Just take the green from the grass and the blue from the sky up above!
And if you colour my world just paint it with your love!
Just colour my world.
Um.

Sunshine yellow.
Orange blossums.
Laughing faces
everywhere!
Yeah!

Oh, you can colour my world with sunshine yellow each day!
Oh, you can colour my world with happiness all the way!
Just take the green from the grass and the blue from the sky up above!
And if you colour my world just paint it with your love.
Just colour my world.
Colour my world.
Oh, colour my world.
Colour my world!

Round Every Corner lyrics - Petula Clark

Round every corner.
Round every corner.
Round every corner.
Round every corner.
Round every corner.
Round every corner.
Round every corner.
Round every corner.

Stop being sad now.
Life ain't so bad now.
Round every corner!
(Round every corner!)
While you're debating
some things are waiting
round every corner!
(Round every corner!)

When Columbus sailed away to other shores,
how could he imagine all that waited for him?
Round every corner!
(Round every corner.)
Round every corner!
(Round every corner!)
Leave all the gloom days.
Think about the new days.
Round every corner!
(Round every corner!)
Everything is yours now,
open all the doors now.
Round every corner!
(Round every corner!)

Man will soon be standing on the moon above!
Just imagine all the things that he'll discover!
Round every corner!
(Round every corner!)
Round every corner!
(Round every corner!)

You've gottta stop a-sittin' there on the shelf!
You've gotta start lookin' there for yourself!
Yeah!
Round every corner!
(Round every corner!)
Round every corner!
(Round every corner!)
What's the use in crying?
Happiness is lying
Round every corner!
(Round every corner!)
And if you want a true love
look for a new love
round every corner!
(Round every corner!)

Just forget the worries that you leave behind!
There are many things to do
and you can find them
Round every corner!
(Round every corner!)
Round every corner!
(Round every corner!)
Round every corner!
(Round every corner!)
Round every corner!
(Round every corner!) [repeat and fade out]

Baby Lover lyrics - Petula Clark

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh, baby lover
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh, baby lover

When things go wrong, you understand
You make me strong with your tender hands
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh, baby lover
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh, I love you so

I was a vine without a rose
Now that you're mine, my happiness shows

To never part, and you are that one

To never part, and you are that one

Come share with me all of life's precious schemes

To ev'ry heart one love will come
To never part, and you are that one
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh, baby lover, I love you so
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh!

My Love lyrics - Petula Clark

My love is warmer than the warmest sunshine
Softer than a sigh
My love is deeper than the deepest ocean
Wider than the sky

My love is brighter than the brightest star
That shines every night above
And there is nothing in this world
That can ever change my love

Something happened to my heart the day that I met you
Something that I never felt before
You are always on my mind, no matter what I do
And every day it seems I want you more

My love is warmer than the warmest sunshine
Softer than a sigh
My love is deeper than the deepest ocean
Wider than the sky

My love is brighter than the brightest star
That shines every night above
And there is nothing in this world
That can ever change my love

Once I thought that love was meant for anyone else but me
Once I thought you'd never come my way
Now it only goes to show how wrong we all can be
For now I have to tell you everyday

My love is warmer than the warmest sunshine
Softer than a sigh
My love is deeper than the deepest ocean
Wider than the sky

My love is brighter than the brightest star
That shines every night above
And there is nothing in this world
That can ever change my love

My love is warmer than the warmest sunshine
Softer than a sigh
My love is deeper than the deepest ocean
Wider than the sky

My love is brighter than the brightest star
That shines every night above
And there is nothing in this world
That can ever change my love
