- Don't give up till its over
This song should be played to every depressed person attending treatment if this does not lift them then the road to recovery will be hard indeed.
Don't give up till it's over, don't quit if you can
The weight on your shoulder will make you a stronger man
Grasp your nettle tightly, though it will burn
Treat your failures lightly, your luck is bound to turn
- Fiddlers Green
The moon was bright, the night was clear
No breeze came over the sea
When mary left her highland home
And wandered forth with me
The flowers be-decked the mountainside
And fragrance filled the vale
But by far the sweetest flower there
Was the rose of Allendale
- Hard Times Come Again No More
Let us pause in life's pleasures and count its many tears
While we all sup sorrow with the poor.
There's a song that will linger forever in our ears,
Oh, hard times, come again no more.
'Tis the song, the sigh of the weary.
Hard times, hard times, come again no more.
Many days you have lingered around my cabin door.
Oh, hard times, come again no more.
- I Saw A Stranger
I saw a stranger with your hair
Tried to make her give it back
So I could send it off to you
Maybe Federal Express
'Cause I know you'd miss it
I saw another with your eyes
The flash just turned my head
I went to try them on for size
- Isle of hope, Isle of tears
On the first day on January,
Eighteen ninety-two,
They opened Ellis Island and they let
The people through.
And the first to cross the threshold
Of that isle of hope and tears,
Was Annie Moore from Ireland
Who was all of fifteen years.
- May we never have to say goodbye
May We Never Have to Say Goodbye
We crossed the oceans
We crossed the valleys
We crossed the mountains high
There’s none to fear
For now we’re here
And may we never have to say goodbye
- Song for a winters night
SONG FOR A WINTER'S NIGHT:Gordon Lightfoot.
Top of the charts in 1964.
The lamp is burnin' low upon my table top,
The snow is softly falling.
The air is still within the silence of my room,
I hear your voice softly calling.
- When You Were Sweet Sixteen
When You Were Sweet Sixteen
(James Thornton)
When first I saw the love light in your eyes
I dreamt the world held naught but love for me
And even though we drifted far apart
I never dream, but what I dream of thee
- World in Union
Think not of casting off your dreams
When the road goes on forever
All is not just as it seems
And we""ll walk the road together
Chorus:
All the way through wind and rain
I""ll never deceive my heart again
Hand in hand, across the land
