Smile though you're heart is aching
Smile even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky you'll get by
If you smile through your pain and sorrow
Smile then maybe tomorrow
You'll see the sun come shining through
If you just smile 😃

It must have been dark there in my shadow
To never have sunlight on your face
You were content to let me fly, that's your way
You always walked a step behind
Did I ever tell you you're my hero
You're everything everything, I wanted to be
I can fly higher than an eagle, cos
You are the wind beneath my wings.
Better Midler ... Beaches

I wanna feel sunshine in my face.
I see the dust clouds disappear without a trace.
I want to take shelter from the poison rain.
Where the streets have no name.

So take that phone call from your momma and just talk away
'Cause you'll never know how bad you wanna 'til you can't someday
Don't wait on tomorrow 'cause tomorrow may not show
Say your sorries, your I-love-yous, 'cause man you never know
If you got a chance, take it, take it while you got a chance
If you got a dream, chase it, 'cause a dream won't chase you back
If you're gonna love somebody
Hold 'em as long and as strong and as close as you can
'Til you can't

The last line in the film Some like it hot. The man realises the woman he loves is in fact, a man.

For every young girl who has ever felt that no one will ever want her...
Lynsey De Paul..
And now the band is playing very slow And once again, I'll get my coat and go A lonely wallflower waiting by the wall Without the will power to face the music at all Please, won't somebody dance with me Start up a romance with me Just someone to care Someone, somewhere for a dance with me I feel so silly in my patent shoes So many partners but none of them will choose A lonely wallflower, growing very tired Into the small hours and feeling undesired

Aww that's sad?.
When you're weary, feeling small
When tears are in your eyes I will dry them all
I'm on your side when times get rough
And friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water, I will lay me down.I
Brilliant Simon and Garfunkel.

I love this one.
She's leaving home.
The Beatles.
Wednesday morning at five o'clock
As the day begins
Silently closing her bedroom door
Leaving the note that she hoped would say more
She goes down the stairs to the kitchen
Clutching her handkerchief
Quietly turning the backdoor key
Stepping outside, she is free
She, ... (we gave her most of our lives)
Is leaving (sacrified most of our lives)
Home (we gave her everything money could buy)
Father snores as his wife gets into her dressing gown
Picks up the letter that's lying there
Standing alone at the top of the stairs
She breaks down and cries to her husband
Daddy, our baby's gone.
Why would she treat us so thoughtlessly?
How could she do this to me?
She (we never thought of ourselves)
Is leaving (never a thought for ourselves)
Home (we struggled hard all our lives to get by)
She's leaving home, after living alone, for so many years
Friday morning, at nine o'clock
She is far away
Waiting to keep the appointment she made
Greeting a man from the Motortrade
She (what did we do that was wrong)
Is Having (we didn't know it was wrong)
Fun (fun is the one thing that money can't buy)
Something inside, that was always denied,
for so many years, .
She's leaving home

One of the best songs ever recorded...great music, great voice, great lyrics.
The House of the Rising Sun Song by The Animals
There is a house in New Orleans They call the Rising Sun And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy And God, I know I'm one
My mother was a tailor She sewed my new blue jeans My father was a gamblin' man Down in New Orleans
Now the only thing a gambler needs Is a suitcase and a trunk And the only time he'll be satisfied Is when he's on a trump
Oh, mother, tell your children Not to do what I have done Spend your lives in sin and misery In the House of the Rising Sun
Well, I got one foot on the platform The other foot on the train I'm goin' back to New Orleans To wear that ball and chain
Well, there is a house in New Orleans They call the Rising Sun And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy And God, I know I'm one

One of my favs Syl.
The higher you build your barriers
The taller I become
The further you take my rights away
The faster I will run
You can deny me, you can decide
To turn your face away
No matter, cos
There something inside so strong
I know that I can make it
Though you're doing me wrong, so wrong
You thought that my pride was gone
There's something inside so strong.
The more you refuse to hear my voice
The louder I will sing
You hide behind walls of Jericho
Your lies will come tumbling
Deny my place in time, you squander wealth thats mine
My light will shine so brightly it will blind you
Because there's something inside so strong.
More versus.
Brilliant song, by great singer, Labi Siffre.

Probably the UK and then here to the US. Then it got changed and modified through the centuries as it's thought to be quite old..

This was my favorite song when I was about 7, even though I didn't know the guy that sang it was killed before I was born..
"The fog was gone the seventh day and they saw the mornin' sun
Ten hours away from homeland the Bismarck made its run
The admiral of the British fleet said "turn those bows around
We found that German battleship and we're gonna cut her down"
The British guns were aimed and the shells were comin' fast
The first shell hit the Bismarck, they knew she couldn't last
That mighty German battleship is just a memory
"Sink the Bismarck" was the battle cry that shook the seven seas
We found that German battleship been makin' such a fuss
We had to sink the Bismarck 'cause the world depends on us
We hit the deck a-runnin' and we spun those guns around
Yeah, we found the mighty Bismarck and prepared to cut her down"
