Lyrics:
Worn out phrases and longing gazes
Won't get you where you want to go, no
Words of love, soft and tender
Won't win her
You oughta know by now
You
in the sky
'Cause I only have eyes for you
I don't know if we're in a garden
Or on a crowded avenue
You are here, so am I
Maybe millions of people go
I know I stand in line
Until you think you have the time
To spend an evening with me
And if we go someplace to dance
I know that there's a chance
I'd go!
Longin' to tell you,
But afraid and shy,
I'd let my golden chances pass me by!
Soon you'd leave me,
Off you would go in the mist of day,
Worn out phrases and longing gazes
Won't get you where you want to go, no
Words of love, soft and tender
Won't win her
You oughta know by now
You
on praying, will our dreams by the same
I wonder if you ever think of me too"
Charmaine's waiting, just for you.
of empty space
Like the empty look I see on your face
I'd have been the shadow of your shadow
If you might have kept me by your side
If you go away, if
Everybody knows a little place like Kokomo
Now if you wanna go and get away from it all
Go down to Kokomo
Aruba, Jamaica, ooh, I wanna take you
home to an empty house
Sit around all by yourself
I know it might sound strange, but I believe
You'll be coming back before too long
Don't go back
If I was your boyfriend, I'd never let you go
I can take you places you ain't never been before
Baby take a chance or you'll never ever know
I got
Eenie meenie miney mo
Catch a bad chick by her toe
If she holla
If-if, if she holla, let her go
She's indecisive, she can't decide
She keeps
Free fall, free fall, all through life
If you love me then let go of me
I won't be held down by who I used to be
She's nothing to me
Feels like
Highway 51 runs right by my baby's door
Highway 51 runs right by my baby's door
If I don't get the girl I'm loving
Won't go down to Highway 51 no
right!),
You're empty, yeah!
Go around the corner,
Bring your goods!
Go around the other corner,
Bring your suitcases. (All night!)
By the sweat of my
sent us out in the world walkin' two by two, me and you
(If it don't take two)
If it don't take two
(If it don't take two)
If I'm not with you
No
Highway 51 runs right by my baby's door
Highway 51 runs right by my baby's door
If I don't get the girl I'm loving
Won't go down to Highway 51 no
Old folks judge you by the clothes you wear
They swear you're a hippy if you have long hair
Young politicians fight for poverty
While people still
to take me by the hand
If you want to
I think this is how love goes
Check yes or no"
Now we're grown up and she's my wife
Still like two kids with
Let me down easy if you must go why not deceive me it won't hurt me so
Truth is so painful tell me a lie let me down easy and I'll get by
Let me
Cause I only have eyes for you.
I don't know if we're in a garden
Or on a crowded avenue
You are here, so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But
startin' tonight
Grab your partner by the hand,
Spread a blanket on the sand
Three a.m. go for a swim
Clothes and all jump right in
Tonight, startin'
Old folks judge you by the clothes you wear
They swear you're a hippy if you have long hair
Young politicians fight for poverty
While people still
night and day.
I'm unhappy and dissatisfied,
But I'd be happy if I had you by my side.
If I could be with you, I'd love you strong,
If I could be
yourself I love you and I don't want you to go
Write this down
Take my words and read 'em every day, keep 'em close by
Don't you let 'em fade away
