Mother Father song

You sail around the world, just to see a beautiful girl.
Her hair just like the night sky, she likes to sway as she walks on by.
She has a heart of gold, and all she wants is to just go go, go go, go go, go, go.
My Mother she told me "you'll find someone soon",
My Mother she told me "there's someone waiting for you",
My Mother she loves me and it came true.
You sail around the world, just to meet a beautiful boy.
He seems a little strange, but he is kind in his own way.
He has a heart of gold, and all he wants is just a home home, home home, home home, home home.
My Father he told me "you'll meet someone soon",
My Father he told me "there's someone worth while for you",
My Father he loves me and it came true.
I love my Mother and my Father too, and I am thankful that you stuck it through….
I sailed around the world, just to meet a beautiful soul.
My Mother told me so, and my Father he did too.
I met a beautiful soul and it reminds me of you two.

Feathers

I saw the lights they were going down, so I went outside to have a peek around.
And I like the dusk, I say it's a must, to go outside when it's not too hot.
Hey, yeah, ooh
Chorus (x2)
Why don't you try it, you might find you like it.
Go out and play it's a beautiful day.
I walked on a path of a park, a bird left me a feather in this fine weather,
a 1 and a 2 and a 3 and a 4, it's a sign I need to get out more
Hey, yeah , ooh
[chorus]
The birds are leaving a trail like a snail, I'm following the feathers in this fine weather.
a 1 and a 2 and a 3 and a 4, it's time I open up a door.

Chorus
I'm sorry that I broke your heart darling, I realise how much I did,
And now your acting funny and I don't know what to do.
How many times can I say sorry for loving you.
I'm sorry that I broke your heart darling.
I promise I won't do it again.
Won't you just forgive me? so we don't have to end.
Darling Darling, don't you see that I love you. Open your eyes, I'm right here and I'm always there for you.
I'm sorry that I broke your heart darling,
I promise I won't do it again.
I'll read between the lines and try, cos I don't want to say goodbye, do you?
[Chorus]
Lets roll around the park just like we used to do,
Lets make funny jokes that only we think are funny.
Cos those are the things I like to do and it's only with you.
[Chorus]
Darling your the only one for me.
I think you feel the same way, I hope oh please.
We can work it out, so come for a walk with me.
Darling Darling, don't you see that I love you. Open your eyes, I'm right here and I'm always there for you.
we can work it out...
we can work it out...

Saw you walking by,
You look pretty fine.
I wan't to make you mine.
Can I see you tonight?
Chorus
Hey boy won't you be mine tonight?
Hey boy won't you take me out tonight?
Hey boy won't you kiss me tonight?
Hey boy won't you hold my hand?
Hey boy won't you make a stand?
Hey boy won't you be my man?
Saw me walking by.
I looked mighty fine.
You said you "gotta make that girl mine"
Want to dine me tonight.
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
Saw you walking by,
with your sparkling eyes.
We're holding hands this time.
Now this boy is mine.

Summer flirtation
04:08
|
|||
|
I first saw you at the harbour, you caught me by surprise.
A knight in shining armour, didn't think I would catch your eye.
it's more than a summer flirtation, I think I'm heading for complication. yeah yeah.
Chorus
In the summertime, it's the time to soak, soak the sun in.
it's the time to brown, browning my skin. yeah yeah.
In the summertime, it's the time to make you mine oh mine.
Pretty soon we were hand in hand, watching the sunset,
with our feet in the sand. A picture I'll never forget.
it's more than a summer flirtation, I think I'm heading for complication. yeah yeah.
[Chorus]
In the summertime, that's where we shared our first kiss.
That's where I made you mine, in a scene so picturesque.
it's more than a summer flirtation, I think I'm heading for complication. yeah yeah.
