TILLBAKA TILL MUSIKHISTORIA

River Deep, Mountain High

When I was a little girl 
I had a rag doll,
the only doll I've ever owned.
Now I love you just the way 
I loved that rag doll,
but only now my love has grown.
And it gets stronger in every way, 
and it gets deeper, let me say.
And it gets higher day by day.

Chorus:
Do I love you, 
my oh my, yes, river deep, mountain high.
If I lost you, would I cry, oh, how I love you baby, baby, baby, baby.

When you were a young boy, did you have a puppy,
that always followed you around?
Well, I'm gonna be as faithful as that puppy,
no, I'll never let you down.
'Cause it goes on like a river flows,
and it gets bigger, baby, and heaven knows.
and it gets sweeter, baby, as it grows.

Chorus

I love you, baby, 
like a flower loves the spring.
And I love you, baby, 
like a robin loves to sing.
And I love you, baby, 
like a schoolboy loves his bag.
And I love you, baby, river deep, mountain high.

Chorus

 

The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine Anymore

Loneliness is a coat you wear
The dark shade of blue is always there.

Emptiness is a place you're in
With nothing to lose and nothing to win.

The sun ain't gonna shine anymore
The moon ain't gonna rise in the sky
The tears are always clouding your eyes
When you're without her.

Lonely without you, baby
So lonely
I can't go on
On without her.


Lou Christie

Lightnin' Strikes

 Listen to me, baby, 
you got to understand 
You're old enough to know 
the makings of a man 
Listen to me, baby, 
it's hard to settle down 
Am I asking too much 
for you to stick around 
Every boy wants a girl 
He can trust to the very end 
Baby, that's you 
Won't you wait but 'til then 
When I see lips beggin' to be kissed (Stop!) I can't stop 
(Stop!) I can't stop myself 
(Stop! Stop!) 
Lightnin's striking again 

Lightnin's striking again 
Nature's takin' over 
my one-track mind 
Believe it or not, 
you're in my heart all the time 
All the girls are sayin' 
that you'll end up a fool 
For the time being, baby, 
live by the rules 
When I settle down 
I want one baby on my mind 
Forgive and forget 
And I'll make up for all lost time 

If she's put together fine
and she's readin' my mind 
(Stop!) I can't stop 
(Stop!) I can't stop myself 
(Stop! Stop!) 
Lightnin's striking again 
Lightnin's striking 
again and again 
and again and again 
Lightnin's striking again 
Lightnin's striking again 
There's a chapel in the pines 
Waiting for us around the bend 
Picture in your mind 
Love forever, but 'til then 
If she gives me a sign that she wants to make time 
(Stop!) I can't stop 
(Stop!) I can't stop myself 
(Stop! Stop!) 
Lightnin's striking again 
Lightnin's striking 
again and again and again 
and again 
Lightnin's striking 
again and again 
and again and again


Grass Roots

Where were you
when I needed you

Don't bother cryin, 
don't bother crawlin
It's all over now, no use in stallin
The love I once felt, 
I don't feel anymore for you
This time I'll even, 
open the door for you
You walked out when I was down
Well now I'm well off
And look, look who's comin round

Where were you when I needed ya
Where were you when I wanted ya
Where were you when I needed ya
Where..ere...ere

Well you're lookin good, 
it's hard to fight it
But no use explainin,
 I've already decided
That livin with you,
 it's worse than without ya
I won't spend a lifetime
 a worryin about ya
Oh, things got rough 
and you disappeared
Now I'm back on my feet
But look, 
look who's standing there

Where were you when I needed ya
Where were you when I wanted ya
Where were you when I needed ya
Where..ere...ere

Well you were so young, 
and you were so wild
I knew you were nobody's 
innocent child
That first day I saw you, 
you really got to me
I thought I could change you, 
what good did it do me
Oh, things got rough 
and you wouldn't wait
Now you're tripping back
But babe, babe it's too late

Where were you when I needed ya
Where were you when I wanted ya
Where were you when I needed ya
Where..ere...ere
