A thousand hands applaud tonight
I sing my songs my star shines bright
I stop and smile I take my bow
I leave the stage and then somehow

Backstage I'm lonely, backstage I cry
You've gone away and each night I seem to die a little

Out on that stage I play the star

Don't mention Donna, when I'm around
When I hear her name,the world just turns upside down

To others Donna means beauty
Donna means heaven,Donna means ecstacy,
But Donna means heartbreak to me

I still remember,her soft caress,the touch of her lips
and the warmth of he

dip-dip, dooba bop bop) (dip-dip, dooba bop bop)
I hardly ever thank the stars above
For sending me your very precious love
You never hear me say a prayer
Of thanks to someone 'way up there
Who gave me such a lucky *break*

Oh, no, darling
Only with ev'ry breath I ta

Hello mary Lou, goodbye heart
sweet Mary Lou I´m so in love with you.
I knew Mary Lou, we´d never part
so hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart.

You passed me by one sunny day
flashed those big brown eyes my way
and oh I wanted you for ever more.
now I´m not one that´s get

If I didn't have a dime,and I didn't take the time
To play the juke box
Whoa-o-o Saturday night would have been a
sad and lonely night for me

And if you weren't standing there
Ruby lips and golden hair, beside the juke box
Whoa-o-o I'd have lost my chance to hold
Yo

It hurts to be in love, when the only one you love
turns out to be someone who´s not in love with you.
It hurts to love her so
when deep down inside you know,
she will never love you, no matter what you do.
and so you cry a little bit (hurts to be in love)
oh you die a l

In the eyes of the world I'm a loser just wastin' my time
I can't make a dime
In the eyes of the world being born was my first big mistake
I can't get a break
But in the eyes of my woman I stand
Like a hero, a giant, a man who's as tall as can be
Any fool can see

When Liberty Valance rode to town the womenfolk would hide, they'd hide
When Liberty Valance walked around the men would step aside
'cause the point of a gun was the only law that Liberty understood
When it came to shootin' straight and fast---he was mighty good.

From out of th

There's a girl who lives down the track
In a little shack made of timber wood
And her clothes are all hand-me-downs
From the folks in town who treat her so good

Though she hasn't got a dime
I'm so proud that she's all mine
'cause to me she's a princess in rags

Now

She walks barefoot through the meadow early in the mornin'
Early in the mornin' ev'ry day
And she wakes up the sleepin' flowers early in the mornin'
Early in the mornin' on the way

And she lets her hair down when the sun comes up
Yes, she lets her hair down
And the morn

I gave my love a diamond, whisper small
I made my love a promise, tower tall
I said"One day, just wait
I'll buy the world for you
One day you'll see my promise,will come true"

She looked down at the diamond
Whisper small
And said "It sparkles brighter,than them all"

When you're young and so and love as we
And bewildered by the world we see
Why do people hurt us so
Only those in love would know
What a Town Without Pity can do..

If we stop to gaze upon a star
People talk about how bad we are...
Ours is not an easy age
We're l

Stand beside me all the while no matter what goes wrong
Separately we're weak, together we'll be strong
Fo-or true love never runs smooth, but I don't care
'cause true love is worth all the pain, the heartaches and tears
That we may sha-are.

When the world outside my arms i

Dearest darlin' I had to write to say that I won't be homeanymore
'cause something happened to me while I was drivin' home
And I'm not the same anymore
Oh, I was only twenty four hours from Tulsa
Ah, only one day away from your arms
I saw a welcoming light and stopped to rest
