Roy Orbison - (I Get So) Sentimental - lyrics

I get so ooh sentimental
Darling when it comes to you,
I'm just too ooh sentimental
And its breaking my heart in two.
I said a-hey,hey now
at the end of the day now,
I get carried away now
thinking of you,ooh
How you looked that night,
you kissed goodbye just right,
then turned away
and i miss you night and day.
Hey,a-hey, hey now,
at the end of the day now,
I get carried away now,
thinking of you, ooh
who holds you tight?,
I wonder where you are,
are you alright
for you know, i still love you,
But I'm just so sentimental,
Baby because of you,
Yes I'm just too sentimental
and it's,breaking my heart in two...

Roy Orbison - (I’d Be) A Legend In My Own Time - lyrics

If heartaches brought fame
In loves crazy game
I'd be a legend in my time
If they gave gold statuettes
For tears and regrets
I'd be a legend in my time
But they don't give awards
And there's no praise or fame
For a heart that's been broken
Over love that's in vain
If loneliness meant world acclaim
Everyone would know my name
I'd be a legend in my time
If loneliness meant world acclaim
Everyone would know my name
I'd be a legend in my time

Roy Orbison - (Say) You're My Girl - lyrics

Hello, may I have this dance with you?
How have you been, girl?
Hold me, and then girl
just let me look at you.
Tell me, now, is it true?
Oh, did you break up?
No chance to make up.
I hate to take up all your time,
but tell me.
Oh, no it won't be repeated.
You mean to tell me he cheated?
Oh, what a fool he's been
Though he is, my best friend
I hate it this way,
But I've waited for this day.
I've always wanted
You to be my girl.
Be my girl, you're my girl.
I still don't believe it
he played around on you.
When all the time he knew
I loved you too
With your big eyes,full lips,
High cheek bones,
And ev'rything about you, girl.
Personality girl,
Gimme a chance, come on,
Let's dance,some
Dance the night awa--y;
You're my girl.you're my girl, you're my girl.
Baby doll, baby, baby, hold me tight.
Be mine tonight, say it's alright.
And I will never, ever let you go, oh...
Be my girl, be my girl,
you're my girl.you're mine,
you're my girl.

Roy Orbison - A New Star - lyrics

Orbison dees
The evening sun is falling that old blue moon is calling
My guardian angel in the sky came through
To help all my dreams come true theres a new star.
Theres a new star coming tonight, theres a new love burning
So bright for a new star of love is born between the earth and sky
For you and i.
Theres a new star
The moon was dull, the sky was cold and gray
There were no stars to light my lonely way
And then I traced the lovelight in your eyes
To a new star twinkling in the sky burning bright, day and night
Now Im alright, now were together, lovers forever
A new star, a new star to light our way
Theres a new star burning for us, theres a new world turning for us
Theres a new star sparkling in the sky.
Theres a new star shining somewhere and we know the reason why
Theres a new star way up there for a true love
A new star for our love will never die.

Roy Orbison - (All I Can Do Is) Dream You - lyrics

(T. Bone Burnette/Dan Malloy)
I close my eyes
And love so warm and tender
Feel you touching me
I close my eyes
I don'teven have to try
It comes so easily
I don't know why
I ever let us drift apart
But look who's sorry now
Cause every time
I wake up and you're not around
It only brings me down
CHORUS
Oh baby
All I can do is dream you
All I can do is dream you
Oh baby
All I can do is dream you
All I can do is dream you
Everyday I pray
That somewhere downthe line
We will meet again
I'll find a way
To get you back somehow
But baby until then
CHORUS

Roy Orbison - (Love Me Like You Did) Last Night - lyrics

Last night, last night, last night, you loved me, how you loved me
Oh, you made me love you last night
Oh how you teased me like you did it, when you did it last night
Pleased me like you did it, when you did it last night
You stole my heart away from me last night
Holding you tight, did it mean as much to you as it meant to me, last night
Were you just lonely, was I just a friend?, did you want me only, or did you pretend?
Was it just one night to hold you tight? then make tonight just like last night
Come on and love me like you did it, when you did it last night
Hold me like you did it when you did it last night
I want you to stay and love me all the way
Say sweet things to me like you said last night, hang on so tight
Now it's alright, just like last night I feel so fine now, you are mine now
Yeah, just like last night, yeah kiss me like you did it
When you did it last night, yeah, touch me like you did it
When you did it last night, ah love me like you did it
When you did it last night, last night

Roy Orbison - A True Love Goodbye - lyrics

Roy orbison/norman petty
A young couple stood under stars in the sky
They pledged their love with tears in their eyes
For this was a true love goodbye
They stood there trembling and couldnt speak
She tip toed and kissed his cheek
For this was a true love goodbye
A true love goodbye, they tried not to cry
With words so true, they both said I love you
Then they parted both broken hearted
But theyll meet again some day some way
Beyond this true love goodbye
A true love goodbye, they tried not to cry
With words so true, they both said I love you
Then they parted both broken hearted
But theyll meet again some day some way
Beyond this true love goodbye
True love, true love goodbye
Bye my love....

Roy Orbison - 22 Days - lyrics

Oh it's been 22 lonely blue days without a word from you
And 44 million more tears I've cried since you walked through that door
The sun never reaches my doorstep each empty day seems to be the same
You've broken your vow but I still love you now, oh this love of mine is a one way losing game
And it's been 22 lonely blue days without a word from you
And 44 million more tears I've cried since you walked through that door
The dreams that we share are gone forever but I still have a little hope in my heart
Is this the way it ends? Are we to be both friends? Oh I can't go on if we're to be apart
And it's been 22 lonely blue days without a word from you
And 44 million more tears I've cried since you walked through that door
Yeah 22 days since you walked through that door
Ah 22 days since you walked through that door
Yeah 22 days since you walked through that door
Mmmm 22 days since you walked through that door

Roy Orbison - A Love So Beautiful - lyrics

The summer sun looked down
On our love long ago
But in my heart I feel
The same old afterglow
A love so beautiful
In every way
A love so beautiful
We let it slip away
We were too young to understand
To ever know
That lovers drift apart
And thats the way love goes
A love so beautiful
A love so sweet
A love so beautiful
A love for you and me
And I when I think of you
I fall in love again
A love so beautiful
In every way
A love so beautiful
We let it slip away
A love so beautiful
In every way
A love so beautiful
We let it slip away
