        Last night I went out disco dancing

        Saw a foxy girl out on the floor

        She's got rhythm, she's got something I need

        She's got rhythm, she's got something I need

         

        She came to my table, we both ordered something to drink (something to drink)

        Before you know it, what do you think

        The music started playin'

         

        Oo the music got us so excited

        And we had to get up on our feet

        She's got rhythm, she's got something I need

        She's got rhythm, she's got something I need

         

        The place was near closing, I offered to take her home (take her home)

        But she was with someone and left me alone

        But I still remember

         

        Oo I know I never will forget her

        And I hope I get to see her again.

         

        She's got rhythm, she's got something I need (never will forget her)

        She's got rhythm, she's got something I need (never will forget her)

        She's got rhythm, she's got something I need (never will forget her)

        She's got rhythm, she's got something I need (never will forget her)

        She's got rhythm, she's got something I need (never will forget her)

        Hey hey

        No more skateboards, put away your baseball mitt.

        Your rough livin' days are through

         

        You could find places to go

        You could see that boys love you so

        They're doin' it all over the world

        They're doin' it all over the world

         

        Hey, little tomboy, I've had my eyes on you

        Thinkin' what a girl you could be

        Mmm, I smell perfume, let's try some cut-off jeans

        Look at all the changes I see

        It's been my secret passion to try it

        In Captain Cook fashion, I can't deny it

        I want to spend my winters on the Kona coast in Hawaii

        For years I saved my pennies and planned it

        The great Pacific Ocean we'll span it

        I wanna go surfin' where I dig it the most, in Hawaii

         

        (Go to Hawaii)

        Hawaiian islands beckon (Hawaii)

        And I'll be back here someday, I reckon

        And pretty island girls greet you with a flower lei

        You'll throw it back into the sea

        Hopin' you be comin' back to Hawaii

         

        Suntanned beauties are everywhere

        Lovely island ladies with long dark hair

        You're sure to find a honey waitin' for you there in Hawaii

        Kani and Wahini and Wahowalis, too

        Get a friendly aloha from this mecca to you

        They're the friendliest people anywhere in Hawaii

         

        (Go to Hawaii)

        Welcome to the island mecca.  (Hawaii)

        I'll learn to talk like a local, I betcha

        And at Lahaina look out for shooting stars

        We'll watch them fall into the sea

        And it will be just you and me in Hawaii

         

        Winter in the sun and surf would sure be nice

        In a south sea garden of paradise

        I wanna spend my summer on the Kona coast in Hawaii

         

        (Honolulu, Waikiki, do you wanna come along with me?)

        (Waimia up to Hanalai, love to take you to the islands today)

        There's something special about it

        Just what, I can't quite say

        But there's no doubt that it's different

        From any other day

        There are no words to exactly describe

        What I'm speakin' of

        It's just a sweet Sunday kinda love

         

        We'll read the funnies together

        And watch some T.V. too

        You can do something for me

        And I'll do the same for you

        We'll fill the hours with things

        That we both most like to do

        Spending a sweet Sunday lovin' you

         

        Why don't we unplug the phone?

        Let's pretend nobody's home, quietly

        Just you and me, oh how nice that will be

         

        All through the week I'll look back upon that

        Sweet Sunday time

        While looking forward to that special happiness

        We'll find

        When we awaken to hear from a songbird up above

        Sounds of a sweet Sunday kinda love

        C'est tres jolie en Paris in the spring

        Watching all the lovers walk along the Seine

        In the restaurant sip a beaujolies

        What a perfect way to spend a lovely day

         

        Bells are ringing, soul of France

        Bells are singing of romance

         

        Sunday morning, hear the bells of Notre Dame

        Watching belles jeunes filles and the handsome gendarmes

        Near the Arc De Triomphe on the Champs-Elysees

        Coffee and croissants in a sidewalk cafe.

         

        Some people go to see the races at Deauville

        Or weekend by the racing tides of Mont San Michelle.

        Some take the tour of Chartres on an autobus

        It's been a long, long while

        Since we've been strung out on love

        And there's no mask of a smile

        That can hide what we're thinkin' of

        From your heart I hear

        Only distant echoes of empty love

        I guess this must be the matchpoint of our love

         

        Early in the game when you broke me

        Just like a serve (matchpoint matchpoint)

        We shoulda walked off the court

        But we both didn't have the nerve (matchpoint matchpoint)

        So we volleyed a while with small talk

        And a smile and as push comes to shove

        I'd say this must be the matchpoint of our love

         

        No one ever held me the way you did

        No one could ever love me the way you did

        How could love slip away from me?

         

        In life's lonely game love too often

        Can let you down (matchpoint matchpoint)

        And tho' no one's to blame

        Love is stil the only game in town (matchpoint matchpoint)

        When it's love's last play you can only say by the stars above That this

        must be the match point of our love

         

        Da da da, da da da da da da (matchpoint matcpoint)

        Da da da da da, da da da da da da (matchpoint matchpoint)

        Da da da da da, da da da da da da (matchpoint matchpoint)

        Da da da da da, da da da da da da (matchpoint matchpoint)

         

        (Oooooooooo)

        (Oooooooooo)

        (Oooooooooo)

         

         

        12. "Winds Of Change"

        Time: 3:13 Mesa Lane Music ASCAP

        Ron Altbach/Ed Tuleja

         

        Winds of change blow 'round my door

        Is this the year I've been waiting for?

        Worlds in motion endlessly

        Cosmic ocean flows into my heart

         

        Part of me would like to be (would like to be)

        A shining lighthouse for all to see (for all to see)

        When the dark night hides the sun

        Shine a light for everyone to see

        Isn't that the way it should be?

         

        I am no stranger to a world of change

        There are always situations to rearrange

        But there's something special 'bout this quiet dawn

        It seems to sing a song to everyone

        It's dawning on and on and on

         

        Of change are here at last (are here at last)

        The clouds have lifted, the storm has passed (the storm has passed)

        Nights we've known are on the run

        And there's a bright and shining sun

        For everyone to see

        Winds of change

         

        (Won't last forever)

        (Won't last forever)

        (Won't last forever)
