Lyrics
Red Carpet (Black Tie) (D.Jones - M.Falchook) DJO Music Publishing (ASCAP)
Black tie, Spotlights,
Headlines read, "Tonight's Our Night,"
Exclusive invitation,
Stepping out of our chauffeured car,
They're rolling out the red carpet like we're movie stars,
Tuxedo, White Dress,
Surrounded by admiring guests,
Champagne toasts and cocktails,
Camera, Lights, and Caviar,
We're strolling down the red carpet like we're movie stars?
Don't need nobody to tell me,
My man's gonna steal the scene,
Bedroom eyes, this bad boy's,
Got the moves like he's Steve McQueen,
Don't need nobody to tell me,
Though inquiring minds need to know,
I'm strutting down the red carpet,
Like I'm Bridget Bardot,
Who he wearing? Got Armani on,
And I'm sparkling bright with Winston,
Say my name award me, "Winner of your heart",
We're tearing up the red carpet like were movie stars?.
Chorus
So sweep me off my dancing feet, Whisk me away to a merengue beat, Cut a rug we're dancing to Santana's guitar, Bossa nova down the red carpet like we're movie stars,
Black tie?.
Very First Dance (D.Jones - M.Falchook) DJO Music Publishing (ASCAP)
Ginger Rogers tangoed with Fred Astaire,
Tonight we'll show them,
How we're a better pair,
Watch out Gene Kelly. my man's much more debonair,
Leading me on the dance floor tonight,
To love and cherish and follow into romance,
Lift me, move me, hold me inside your glance,
For better for worse, through any and all circumstance,
Start life out simple,
With this very first dance?
So spin me in the Plaza ballroom,
Twirl me 'round at the Ritz,
I won't let go 'cause you're Prince Charming,
And I'm Cinderella 'cause the shoe fits,
Let's go out singing loudly into the rain,
Jumpin' in puddles, Gene Kelly never had to explain,
It's true love, clicking heels while the stormy clouds chase,
Every bit of my dancin' feet blues away?.
Chorus
Verse
Start life out simple,
With this very first dance?
Lil' Ole Me (D.Jones - M.Falchook) DJO Music Publishing (ASCAP)
If I were Hollywood,
I'd wear a big sign,
So you would know my name,
Yeah, I'd be larger than life,
And you would not resist looking back up to see,
No one's gonna light up your world like Lil' ole' me,
If I were the Golden Gate,
I'd build you a bridge,
So you could find the way,
To where your true love is,
And we would sail above that blue and windy sea,
And that's when you'll leave your heart with Lil' ole' me,
Me, with my less than perfect smile,
Me, with my five and dime store style,
Me, with my head up in the clouds,
You, only you can satisfy me now,
If I were New York City,
I'd never let you sleep,
I'd be your "big apple girl",
I'd stand on top of that heap,
And I would spread the news,
That we were meant to be,
'Cause no one's gonna shake away your blues like Lil' ole' me.
If I were the sun in your sky,
I'd never ever set,
I'd dance on the moon and the stars,
You'd sit back and reflect,
Watch night turn into day,
'Til even heaven agrees,
That's when the world would revolve around Lil' ole' me,
That's when you'll leave your heart with Lil' ole' me,
No one's gonna light up your world like Lil' ole' me ?..
Ocean Eyes (D.Jones - M.Falchook) DJO Music Publishing (ASCAP)
You're so divine,
I'll follow your footsteps through time,
Where the road leads I 'm blind now to see,
As long as your there,
With that God above stare,
I'm yours eternally?.
Two heavenly hearts,
Pounded strong from the start,
Before Adam and Eve found that apple tree,
Before their embrace,
I memorized your face,
'Cause I'm yours eternally?.
Loving you, through and through,
I'll stay by you forever?.
So take my hand,
With you I'll stand,
Though the rivers stop rushing into the sea,
I'll still dive,
Into your ocean eyes,
'Cause I'm yours and you're mine,
I'm yours eternally,
Funny Because (D.Jones - M.Falchook) DJO Music Publishing (ASCAP)
Funny because you're my best friend,
Funny because it's you,
Funny because we're so in love,
Funny because it's true,
And I could fly to heaven hanging on every word you say,
And I'll just glide right past the gates of St. Peter,
All because you say I'm okay?
And we laugh and we smile,
'Cause the timing is perfect,
How romance entered in from above,
Like a stroke of genius,
We fell into each other,
And it's funny because, funny because,
It's love?
Funny because it's a surprise,
Like when I walked into the room,
And the whole world could see with their eyes,
But I just never knew,
And I could fly to heaven hanging on a wing and a prayer,
And I'll just glide right through the gates of St. Peter,
All because of the love we share?.
Chorus
Gravy (D.Jones - M.Falchook) DJO Music Publishing (ASCAP)
Got my first class ticket on the next train home,
Got the love of my life beside me,
No I'm not traveling alone,
I've watched those dark days pass me by,
As I get closer to the Son, (Look back and see how far we've come),
You pour out all that sweetness onto the top of my world,
Moved each and every mountain,
In the way of this girl,
Don't know how you think I'm worthy,
Of the amazing love you've shown,
Everything's sweet, Everything's good,
Now that you've come to save me,
Anything more, Anything else,
Is just gravy, gravy,
So I've got the inclination to sing out your praise,
You're my joy, my inspiration, you're the light in all my days,
I know I'm blessed a million times,
When I look in your eyes,
Everything's sweet, Everything's good,
Now that you've come to save me,
Anything more, Anything else,
Is just gravy, gravy,
Life is passing us by,
I give you the keys and say "drive",
You take me on a journey where heaven collides,
Into my life,
Can't imagine anything better,
Anything better,
I've reached my destination 'cause you're where I wanna be,
It's a blessed sweet sensation,
With your arms surrounding me,
You said you'd give me anything,
But you're all I'll ever need.
Chorus
To Have and to Hold (D.Jones - M.Falchook) DJO Music Publishing (ASCAP)
Inspired by the Song Of Solomon / Dedicated to Heather and Chris West
I vow, to have and to hold,
I give my all, my heart and my soul,
From today 'til this crazy world grows cold,
I'll still be there to have and to hold?
I vow to be your best friend,
To comfort, inspire, to defend,
We'll brave all life's battles 'til we win,
I'll be your refuge you'll be my God-send?
To have and to hold,
I am my beloved's,
To have and to hold,
My beloved is mine,
To have and to hold,
I give my life to you,
So stay in my arms?
To love and cherish for all time,
For better for worse you'll still be mine,
We'll capture every moment even as time flies,
Into old memories that sparkle in your eyes?
Chorus
I vow, to have and to hold,
I give my all, My heart and my soul,
From today 'til this crazy world grows cold,
I'll still be there to have and to hold?
What If (D.Jones - M.Falchook) DJO Music Publishing (ASCAP)
What if the stars were not aligned?
What if fate had not been kind?
What if love had really been blind,
Would I have seen you?
What if that night was not romance?
What if we lost our way by chance?
What if my feet weren't meant to dance,
Would I have followed?
If I'd never met you,
Where would I be right now?
I'm not trying to upset you,
But what if fate had not been kind,
And all the stars were not aligned,
Where would we be right now?
What if we hadn't found true love,
Beneath that conniving moon above?
What if we hadn't had that shove,
Would we have fallen?
Think of all we almost missed,
When I gave back that stolen kiss?
Still in spite of all those "what ifs'
We are in love.
Food For My Soul (Cool) (D.Jones - M.Falchook) DJO Music Publishing (ASCAP)
Dedicated to Erica and Geraldo Rivera
I hunger for your love,
I'll consume any portion you give me,
A taste is heaven filling me,
Stirring up what was still in me,
Inspiring me 'til I'm full,
Your love is food for my soul,
I'm taking you in,
I long to conceive how great your love is,
You lighten up a fire,
Melt my foolish desires,
Completing me 'til I'm whole,
Your love is food for my soul,
Deep within love's well are possibilities,
You take me to the sweetest place I've known,
I'll savor every moment that you offer me,
Giving me so much more,
Than I've ever had before,
I crave for the day,
When this love starved world just fades away,
And you breathe in me eternal life,
Then all my needs are satisfied,
And my heart overflows,
Your love is food for my soul?.
I'm Satisfied (D.Jones - M.Falchook) DJO Music Publishing (ASCAP)
Dedicated to Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones
I don't need an Oscar on my shelf,
A Mercedes or Bentleys galore,
A billionaire's will from Beverly Hills,
'Cause baby I'm satisfied,
I don't need a Winston diamond ring
Or carte blanche at Tiffany's,
Bill Gates' estate, Cindy Crawford's waist,
'Cause baby I'm satisfied,
You may not believe that a girl like me could be happy with the simple things,
But I feel so alive 'cause I'm satisfied with you, With you,
I don't need a villa in Italy,
Or a trip down Rodeo Drive,
Beluga caviar, A Cuban cigar,
Cause baby I'm satisfied,
Bridge
I don't need a Harrods' shopping spree,
Rolex or Cartier,
A Versace design, a vintage wine
Cause baby I'm satisfied,
All I need are kisses from your lips,
And a look in my baby's eyes,
A simple "I Love You" will more than do,
Cause baby I'm satisfied,
And though it's burgers and fries,
I still can't deny,
That baby I'm satisfied.
Astounded (D.Jones - M.Falchook) DJO Music Publishing (ASCAP)
I'm breathing deeper,
I see things so much clearer,
I hear you whisper, "come nearer dear to me,"
Each moment is lasting longer,
My faith is getting stronger,
'Cause it's true that you belong to me,
Life is grand,
Life is sweet,
I take your hand my world's complete,
And I'm astounded by the sweetness of your love,
Astounded by the sweetness of your love,
Embrace and conceal me,
Open up and reveal me,
Capture me and steal me away,
Life is full,
When I take the time,
To comprehend how you are mine,
And I'm astounded by the sweetness of your love,
Astounded by the sweetness of your love?
Once upon a time this world was cruel,
And I was so unsure just what to do,
My future was unclear,
Until your face appeared,
And now it all makes sense to me,
'Cause everything is new,
You brightened up and received me,
Never doubted you believed in me,
Stayed with me and promised for all time,
Life is grand, Life is sweet,
I take your hand my world's complete,
And I'm astounded by the sweetness of your love,
Astounded by the sweetness of your love.
Picture Me (D.Jones - M.Falchook) DJO Music Publishing (ASCAP)
Forget those scary nightmares,
Erase them from your mind,
Let me scribble away any stormy days,
That may come into your life,
And I'll draw for you a future,
Of bright sky baby blue,
A canvas of dreams,
Where everything you wish for will come true,
I'll always picture you with that masterpiece you drew,
Our stick finger hands holding tight,
And that bright red, "I heart you"
Won't you picture me?
Like you did when you were three,
Always standing tall beside you,
I hope that's how you'll picture me,
The yellow sun is shining,
The grass is always green,
And there's a beautiful home filled with love and a perfect family,
Loving arms around you, singing birds there in your tree,
May your life be filled with all the beautiful things,
You imagined when you were three?
Chorus
