  1. Everybody Needs Somebody to Love/Solomon Burke (Berns/Burke/Wexler)

    I'm so happy to be here tonight
    So glad to be in your wonderful city
    And I have a little message for you
    And I want to tell every woman and every man tonight
    That's ever needed someone to love
    That's ever had somebody that loves 'em
    That's ever had somebody to understand 'em
    That's ever had someone that needs their love all the time
    Someone that's with 'em when they're up
    Somebody's with 'em when they're down
    If you had yourself somebody like this, you better hold on to 'em
    'Cause let me tell you something
    Sometimes you get what you want
    And you lose what you have
    And there's a song that I sing
    And I believe if everybody was to sing this song it would save the whole world
    Listen to me

    Everybody needs somebody
    Everybody wants somebody to love
    Honey, to hug
    Sugar, to kiss
    Baby, to miss
    Baby, to tease
    Sometime to please
    And I need you
    And I need you
    In the morning, baby
    When the sun goes down
    Ain't nobody around, sugar

    Sometimes I feel
    I feel a little sad inside
    My baby mistreat me
    And I get a little mad
    But I need you
    Just to see me through
    Somebody to hold my hand
    When I feel a little lonely

    Let me hear you say "Yeah!"

  2. Could You, Would You/Them (Morrison)

    Could you, would you
    Hold me in your arms
    Show me all your charms
    Or make me sad or make me blue
    Could you love me
    Like I love you
    Like I love you

    Could you, would you
    Squeeze and hold me tight
    Love me all through the night
    And never ever let me go
    Could you love me
    Like I love you so
    Like I love you so

    Every time I see you walkin' down my avenue
    I say, "Hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, are you alright?"
    And you say, "How do you do?"
    Just like you always do
    But if I had you in my arms tonight

    Could you, would you
    Hold me oh so near
    While I whisper in your ear
    The sweet words you long to hear
    Could you love me
    Like I love you
    Like I love you

  3. Head Over Heels/Go-Go's (Caffey/Valentine)

    Been running so long
    I've nearly lost all track of time
    In every direction
    I couldn't see the warning signs
    I must be losin' it
    'Cuz my mind plays tricks on me
    It looked so easy
    But you know looks sometimes deceive

    Been running so fast
    Right from the starting line
    No more connections
    I don't need any more advice
    One hand's just reaching out
    And one's just hangin' on
    It seems my weaknesses
    Just keep going strong

    Head over heels
    Where should I go
    Can't stop myself
    Outta control
    Head over heels
    No time to think
    Looks like
    The whole world's out of sync

    Been running so hard
    When what I need is to unwind
    The voice of reason
    Is one I left so far behind
    I waited so long
    So long to play this part
    And just remembered
    That I'd forgotten about my heart

  4. You Were Meant for Me/Gene Kelly (Brown/Freed)

    Life was a song
    You came along
    I've laid awake the whole night through
    If I ever dared
    To think you cared,
    This is what I'd say to you

    You were meant for me
    And I was meant for you
    Nature patterned you
    And when she was done
    You were all the sweet things
    Rolled up in one
    You're like a plaintive melody
    That never lets me free
    But I'm content
    The angels must have sent you
    And they meant you just for me

  5. Comfort You/Van Morrison (Morrison)

    I wanna comfort you
    I wanna comfort you
    I wanna comfort you
    Just let your tears run wild
    Like when you were a child
    I'll do what I can do
    I wanna comfort you

    You put the weight on me
    You put the weight on me
    You put the weight on me

    When it gets too much for me
    When it gets too much, much too much for me
    I'll do the same thing that you do
    And I'll put the weight on you
    I'll put the weight on you
    I'll put the weight on you

    And I'll do the same thing that you do
    I'll put the weight on you
    I wanna comfort you
    I wanna comfort you

    And I wanna comfort you
    Just let your tears run wild
    Like when you were a child
    I'll do what I can do
    I just wanna comfort you

  6. Naima/John Coltrane (Coltrane)

  7. Rikki Don't Lose That Number/Steely Dan (Becker/Fagen)

    We hear you're leaving, that's ok
    I thought our little wild time had just begun
    I guess you kind of scared yourself, you turn and run
    But if you have a change of heart

    (Chorus)
    Rikki, don't lose that number
    You don't wanna call nobody else
    Send it off in a letter to yourself
    Rikki, don't lose that number
    It's the only one you own
    You might use it if you feel better
    When you get home

    I have a friend in town, he's heard your name
    We can go out driving on Slow Hand Row
    We could stay inside and play games, I don't know
    And you could have a change of heart

    (Chorus)

    You tell yourself you're not my kind
    But you don't even know your mind
    And you could have a change of heart

    (Chorus)

    Rikki, don't lose that number
    Rikki, don't lose that number

  8. Satellites/Rickie Lee Jones (Jones)

    We were born forever
    We are twinned in a fugitive mind
    Friends should stay together and
    Light the world with the fugitive kind
    So you keep talking in many languages
    Telling us the way you feel
    Don't stop confiding in the road you're on
    Don't quit, you're walking satellites

    Walking satellites
    She laughs satellites
    A room filled with satellites
    Ahh, walking satellites

    We were born forever
    Tunneled into the fugitive night
    Friends must stay together
    Code the world with the fugitive light

    I just saw you walking
    Ice was reading fortunes by the moonlight
    Casting runes on the rooftops and alleys
    You'll never read it more than you will tonight

    So you keep talking in many languages
    Telling us the way you feel
    Don't stop confiding in the road you're on
    Don't quit, you're walking satellites

    Walking satellites
    She laughs satellites
    A room filled with satellites
    Ahh, walking satellites

  9. Let My Love Open the Door/Pete Townshend (Townshend)

    When people keep repeating
    That you'll never fall in love
    When everybody keeps retreating
    But you can't seem to get enough

    Let my love open the door
    Let my love open the door
    Let my love open the door
    To your heart

    When everything feels all over
    Everybody seems unkind
    I'll give you a four-leaf clover
    Take all worry out of your mind

    Let my love open the door
    Let my love open the door
    Let my love open the door
    To your heart, to your heart

    I have the only key to your heart
    I can stop you falling apart
    Try today you'll find this way
    Come on and give me a chance to say

    Let my love open the door
    It's all I'm living for
    Release yourself from misery
    There's only one thing gonna set you free
    That's my love
    That's my love

    Let my love open the door
    Let my love open the door
    Let my love open the door
    Let my love open the door

    When tragedy befalls you
    don't let it drag you down
    Love can cure your problem
    You're so lucky I'm around

    Let my love open the door
    Let my love open the door
    Let my love open the door
    To your heart

  10. Love Is Here to Stay/Gene Kelly (G. Gershwin/I. Gershwin)

    It's very clear our love is here to stay
    Not for a year, but ever and a day
    The radio and the telephone
    And the movies that we know
    May just be passing fancies
    And in time may go
    But oh, my dear, our love is here to stay
    Together we're going a long, long way
    In time the Rockies may crumble
    Gibraltar may tumble
    They're only made of clay
    But our love is here to stay

  11. Save the Last Dance for Me/Drifters (Pomus/Shuman)

    You can dance every dance with the guy
    Who gives you the eye, let him hold you tight
    You can smile every smile for the man
    Who held your hand 'neath the pale moonlight
    But don't forget who's taking you home
    And in whose arms you're gonna be
    So darling, save the last dance for me

    Oh I know that the music's fine
    Like sparkling wine, go and have your fun
    Laugh and sing, but while we're apart
    Don't give your heart to anyone
    But don't forget who's taking you home
    And in whose arms you're gonna be
    So darling, save the last dance for me

    Baby don't you know I love you so
    Can't you feel it when we touch
    I will never ever let you go
    I love you oh so much

    You can dance, go and carry on
    Till the night is gone
    And it's time to go
    If he asks if you're all alone
    Can he take you home, you must tell him no
    'Cause don't forget who's taking you home
    And in whose arms you're gonna be
    So darling, save the last dance for me

  12. Can't Help Falling in Love/Elvis Presley (Weiss/Peretti/Creatore)

    Wise men say
    only fools rush in
    But I can't help falling in love with you

    Shall I stay
    Would it be a sin
    If I can't help falling in love with you

    Like a river flows surely to the sea
    Darling, so it goes
    Some things are meant to be

    Take my hand
    Take my whole life, too
    For I can't help falling in love with you

    Like a river flows surely to the sea
    Darling so it goes
    Some things are meant to be

    Take my hand
    Take my whole life, too
    For I can't help falling in love with you
    For I can't help falling in love with you
