Going down slow (Eric Clapton)

Going Down Slow



I have had my fun if I never get well no more.
I have had my fun if I never get well no more.
All of my health is failing;
Lord, I’m going down slow,

I’m going down slow.
Please write my mother and tell her the shape I’m in.
Please write my mother and tell her the shape I’m in.
Tell her to pray for me,
Forgive me for my sin,
For all of my sin.

On the next train south, look for my clothes back home.
On the next train south, look for my clothes back home.
‘Cause all of my health is failing;
Lord, I’m going down slow,
I’m going down slow.

All of my health is failing;
Lord, I’m going down slow,
I’m going down slow.

Feel like I’m going, like I’m going down slow.
I feel like I’m going, like I’m going down slow.
I feel like I’m going, like I’m going down slow.
I feel like I’m going, like I’m going down slow.
I feel like I’m going, like I’m going down slow.

Change the world (Eric Clapton)

CHANGE THE WORLD

If I could reach the stars,
Pull one down for you,
Shine it on your heart
So you could see the truth:
That this love I have inside
Is everything it seems.
But for now I find
It’s only in my dreams.

If I could change the world,
I would be the sunlight in your universe.
You would think my love was really something good,
Baby if I could change the world.

And if I could be king,
Even for a day,
I’d take you as my queen;
I’d have it no other way.
And our love would rule
This kingdom we had made.
Till then I’d be a fool,
Wishing for the day...

That I can change the world,
I would be the sunlight in your universe.
You would think my love was really something good,
Baby if I could change the world.
Baby if I could change the world.

If I could change the world,
I would be the sunlight in your universe.
You would think my love was really something good,
Baby if I could change the world.
Baby if I could change the world.
Baby if I could change the world.

Bell bottom blues (Eric Clapton)

 

Bell Bottom Blues

Bell bottom blues, you made me cry.
I don’t want to lose this feeling.
And if I could choose a place to die
It would be in your arms.

Do you want to see me crawl across the floor to you?
Do you want to hear me beg you to take me back?
I’d gladly do it because
I don’t want to fade away.
Give me one more day, please.
I don’t want to fade away.
In your heart I want to stay.

It’s all wrong, but it’s all right.
The way that you treat me baby.
Once I was strong but I lost the fight.
You won’t find a better loser.

Chorus

Chorus

Bell bottom blues, don’t say goodbye.
I’m sure we’re gonna meet again,
And if we do, don’t you be surprised
If you find me with another lover.

Chorus

I don’t want to fade away.
Give me one more day please.
I don’t want to fade away.
In your heart I long to stay.

The Wonder Of You (Elvis Presley)

The Wonder of You 

When on one else can understand me, when everything I do is wrong

You give me hope and consolation. You give me strength to carry on

And you’re always there, to lend a hand in everything I do

That’s the wonder, the Wonder of You.

And when you smile the world is brighter. You touch my hand and I’m OK.

Your kiss to me is worth a fortune. Your love for me is everything

I guess I’ll never know, the reason why you love me as you do,

That’s the wonder, the Wonder of You.

The Impossible Dream (Elvis Presley)

The Impossible Dream

(Words and Music by Joe Darion and Mitch Leigh from the Broadway musical "Man of La Mancha")

To dream the impossible dream, to fight the unbeatable foe

To bear with unbearable sorrow, to run where the brave dare not go

To right the unrightable wrong, to love pure and chaste from afar

To try when your arms too weary

To reach the unreachable star

This is my quest to follow that star

No matter how hopeless, no matter how far

To fight for the right without question or pause

To be willing to march into hell for a heavenly cause

And I know if I’ll only be true to his glorious quest

That my heart will lie peaceful and calm

When I’m laid to my rest

And the world will be better for this

That one man scorned and covered with scars

Still strove with his last ounce of courage

To reach the unreachable star
