The Singer and the Song Sounds of the Sixties

# Venus must have heard my plea

# She has sent someone along for me

# I have waited a long, long time

# For somebody to call mine

# And at last he's come along

# Baby, oh, nothing can go wrong

# We meet every night at eight

# And I don't get home till late

# I say to myself each day

# Baby, oh, long, long live love

# True love must be the greatest thing

# I know now, I sing, I sing

# Of the moon and stars above

# How I love to be in love

# We meet every night at eight

# And I don't get home till late

# I say to myself each day

# Baby, oh, long, long live love

# Now of one thing I'm more than sure

# Since love's come I don't want more

# Than to kiss him every night

# Makes everything all right

# We meet every night at eight

# And I don't get home till late

# I say to myself each day

# Baby, oh, long, long live love

# We meet every night at eight

# And I don't get home till late

# I say to myself each day

# Baby, oh, long, long live love

# Mmm-mmm

# Long, long live love. #

APPLAUSE

# When I said I needed you

# You said you would always stay

# It wasn't me who changed, but you

# And now you've gone away

# Don't you see that now you've gone

# And I'm left here on my own

# That I have to follow you

# And beg you to come home

# You don't have to say you love me

# Just be close at hand

# You don't have to stay forever

# I will understand

# Believe me, believe me

# I can't help but love you

# But believe me

# I'll never tie you down

# Left alone with just a memory

# Life seems dead and so unreal

# All that's left is loneliness

# There's nothing left to feel

# You don't have to say you love me

# Just be close at hand

# You don't have to stay forever

# I will understand

# Believe me, believe me

# You don't have to say you love me

# Just be close at hand

# You don't have to stay forever

# I will understand

# Believe me

# Oh, believe me

# Believe me. #

The ballad singers, they came into their own.

There was a guy who was around singing all kinds of song.

He found the right sort of ballad

and he came to the number one spot this month.

We're talking about Mr Long John Baldry.

# I can hear the guitars start to play

# And very soon they say

# I was a fool to turn her love away

# And with each glass of wine I feel a glow

# And very soon I know

# I was a fool to let my baby go

# So let the heartaches begin

# I can't help it, I can't win

# I've lost that girl for sure

# And tears won't help any more

# So let the heartaches begin

# I can't help it, I can't win

# I've lost that girl for sure

# And now she's gone

# I can't hold back the tears

# Any more

# I see the couples dancing through the night

# They hold each other tight

# As they dance on and on till the morning light

# The soft embraces that they seem to share

# Just make me feel aware

# Of the loneliness I find so hard to bear

# So let the heartaches begin

# I can't help it, I can't win

# I've lost that girl for sure

# And tears won't help any more

# Yes, let the heartaches The heartaches begin

# You know that I just can't help it

# And that I can't win

# I've lost that girl for sure

# And now that she's gone

# I can't hold back the tears

# Any more. #

APPLAUSE

There he is. Long John Baldry.

And you know something, that gives me great personal satisfaction that John has done so well,

because two years ago on this very show, John was in the audience

and I pulled him out of the audience and said,

"Don't worry, one day you're going to make it. You'll make it next year."

So I was out a year. But he's made it, and in a big way,

and couldn't happen to a nicer fellow. Good luck to you, John.

# Love loves to love love to love love to love, love

# Love loves to love love to love love to love, love

# Some people live within the world

-# And some people live without it

-Hey

# Some people gotta whisper their love

-# And some they gotta shout it

-Hey

# One thing they have in common is they all talk a lot about it

# Everybody wants it or has it or holds it

# But as for me I doubt it

# Love loves to love love to love love to love, love

# Love loves to love love to love love to love, love

# Billy tiger in the zoo loves little tiger Sue

# And the keeper loves a lady who is dead

# Matched to the king loves

# The matched to the queen of blues hung up on red

# Hey

# You love someone who loves someone else

# In your heart it feels like lead

# Everyone loves someone

# But the universe loves everyone that's why I said

# Love loves to love love to love love to love, love

# Love loves to love love to love love to love, love

# Yeah

# Really doesn't matter what the guy's like

# If he's a give or taker or a user

# Everybody wins and loses at love

# But love is never the loser

# All you gotta do is whisper the words

# And everybody understands you

# Love is an excuse for having extra tears

# That anything you'll do will hand you

# Love loves to love love to love love to love, love

# Love loves to love love to love love to love, love

# Love loves to love love to love love to love, love

# Love loves to love love to love love to love, love. #

Marvellous stuff from Lulu.

Love Loves To Love Love To Love Love To Love, and words to that effect.

I've dug that young lady ever since I first saw her

in dear old Glasgow town about four years ago, wasn't it, Lulu? Four years ago. Marvellous.

# I saw the flickering shadows of love on her blind

# She was my woman

# As she deceived me I watched and went out of my mind

# My, my, my, Delilah

# Why, why, why, Delilah?

# I could see

# That girl was no good for me

# But I was lost like a slave that no man could free

# At break of day when that man drove away, I was waiting

# I crossed the street to her house and she opened the door

# She stood there laughing

# I felt the knife in my hand and she laughed no more

# My, my, my, Delilah

# Why, why, why, Delilah?

# So before

# They come to break down the door

# Forgive me, Delilah

# I just couldn't take any more

# She stood there laughing

# I felt the knife in my hand and she laughed no more

# My, my, my, Delilah

# Why, why, why, Delilah?

# So before

# They come to break down the door

# Forgive me, Delilah

# I just couldn't take any more

# Forgive me Delilah

# I just couldn't take any more. #

It's really quite incredible, because that is Cliff Richard,

just celebrated ten years in the pop business,

and it looks as though he's going to celebrate a large hit in his hands. That's his new release.

# Watch the water falling down

# Falling down outside your head

# You do your best to turn the tide

# But can't forget everything he said

# The pressure's getting far too great

# The word together came too late

# What do you do when your love breaks up?

# Do you fall apart like a buttercup?

# Forget about tomorrow

# Surround yourself with sorrow

# What do you do when your love breaks up?

# Do you fall apart like a buttercup?

# Forget about tomorrow

# Surround yourself with sorrow

# Watch the water falling down

# Like a neon in your head

# The neon's flashing off and on

# Recalling everything he said

# You lost the fight for love today

# Your dreams are shattered Thrown away

# What do you do when your love breaks up?

# Do you fall apart like a buttercup?

# Forget about tomorrow

# Surround yourself with sorrow

# What do you do when your love breaks up?

# Do you fall apart like a buttercup?

# Forget about tomorrow

# Surround yourself with sorrow

# What do you do when your love breaks up?

# Do you fall apart like a buttercup?

# Forget about tomorrow

# Surround yourself with sorrow

# What do you do when your love breaks up?

# Do you fall apart like a buttercup?

# Forget about tomorrow

# Surround yourself with sorrow

# Ooh. #

In the world of pop, it's hard to find an original talent,

but here is one. A man who is writing and singing

some of the best songs around at the moment, with his latest,

Where Do You Go To (My Lovely)? - Peter Sarstedt.

# You talk like Marlene Dietrich

# And you dance like Zizi Jeanmaire

# Your clothes are all made by Balmain

# And there's diamonds and pearls in your hair, yes there are

# And you live in a fancy apartment

# Off the Boulevard Saint-Michel

# Where you keep your Rolling Stones records

# And a friend of Sacha Distel Yes, you do

# But where do you go to, my lovely

# When you're alone in your bed?

# Won't you tell me the thoughts that surround you

# I want to look inside your head Yes, I do

# Well, I've seen all your qualifications

# That you got from the Sorbonne

# And the painting you stole from Picasso

# Your loveliness goes on and on Yes, it does

# And when you go on your summer vacation

# You go to Juan-les-Pins

# With your carefully designed topless swimsuit

# You get an even suntan on your back and on your legs

# And when the snow falls you're found in St Moritz

# With the others of the jet set

# And you sip your Napoleon brandy

# But you never get your lips wet No, you don't

# But where do you go to, my lovely

# When you're alone in your bed?

# Won't you tell me the thoughts that surround you

# I want to look inside your head Yes, I do

# Your name, it is heard in high places

# You know the Aga Khan

# And he sent you a racehorse for Christmas

# And you keep it just for fun For a laugh, ha-ha-ha-ha

# And they say that if you get married

# It'll be to a millionaire

# Ah, but they don't realise where you came from

# And I wonder if they really care or give a damn

# Where do you go to, my lovely

# When you're alone in your bed?

# You better tell me the thoughts that surround you

# I want to look inside your head Yes, I do

# Well, I remember the back streets of Naples

# And two children begging in rags

# Both touched with a burning ambition

# To shake off their lowly-born tags, they try

# So look into my face Marie-Claire

# Remember just who you are

# Then go and forget me forever

# But I know you still bear the scar deep inside

# I know where you go to, my lovely

# When you're alone in your bed

# Oh, yes, and I know the thoughts that surround you

# Cos I can look inside your head

# Na, na-na-na, na-na-na

# Na-na-na-na-na-na

# Na, na-na-na, na-na-na

# Na-na-na, na, na. #
