Summer rain - Johnny Rivers (1967 - 1968 live) (with lyrics)

 live 1968





(Lyrics)

Summer rain taps at my window
West wind soft as a sweet dream
My love warm as the sunshine
Sittin' here by me,
She's here by me

She stepped out of the rainbow
Golden hair shinin' like moon glow
Warm lips soft as a soul
Sitting here by me, yeah
She's here by me

All summer long we spent dancin' in the sand
And the jukebox kept on playin' 

"Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band"

We sailed into the sunset
Drifting home caught by a gulf stream
Never gave a thought for tomorrow
Just let tomorrow be, now
Let tomorrow be

(Instrumental)

She wants to live in the Rockies
She says that's where we'll find peace
Settle down, raise up a fam'ly
To call our own, yeah
We'll have a home

All summer long we spent groovin' in the sand
Everybody kept on playin' 

"Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band"

The snow drifts by my window
North wind blowin' like thunder
Our love's burnin' like fire
And she's here by me, yeah
She's here with me
Let tomorrow be

I need your lovin' - Johnny Rivers (1965 live) (with lyrics)

(Lyrics)

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Baby, I need your lovin'
Baby, I need your lovin'
Although you're never near
Your voice I often hear

Another day, another night
I long to hold you tight
'Cause I'm so lonely

Baby, I need your lovin'
Got to have all your lovin'
Baby, I need your lovin'
Got to have all your lovin'

Every night I call your name
Oh, sometimes I wonder, girl, 

Will I ever be the same?

When you see me smile you know
Things are just gettin' worse
Any smile you might see, baby
Has all been rehearsed
Baby, I can't go on without you
This loneliness won't let me live without you
This emptiness inside me, baby
Makes me feel half alive

Baby, I need your lovin'
Got to have all your lovin'
Baby, I need your lovin'
Got to have all your lovin'

Uh, I need your lovin'
Got to have all your lovin'
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Swaying to the music - Johnny Rivers (with lyrics)

(Lyrics)

It's late at night and we're all alone
Just the music on the radio
No one's coming, no one's gonna telephone
Just me and you and the lights down low

And we're
Slow dancing, swaying to the music
Slow dancing, just me and my girl
Slow dancing, swaying to the music
No one else in the whole wide world

Just you, girl

And we just flow together when the lights are low
Shadows dancing now across the wall
Music is playing so soft and slow
Rest of the world so far away and small

And we're
Slow dancing, swaying to the music
Slow dancing, just me and my girl
Slow dancing, swaying to the music
No one else in the whole wide world

Hold me, oh, oh, hold me
Don't ever let me go

As we dance together in the dark
So much love in this heart of mine
Whisper to me and I hold you tight
You're the one I thought I'd never find

Now we're 

Slow dancing, swaying to the music
Slow dancing, just me and my girl
Slow dancing, swaying to the music
No one else in the whole wide world

Slow dancing, swaying to the music
Slow dancing, just me and my, my, my, my girl
Slow dancing, swaying to the music
No one else in the whole wide world

Oh, my, girl

When a man loves a woman - Johnny Rivers (1967) (with lyrics)

(Lyrics)

(Lights!)

When a man loves a woman
Can't keep his mind on nothin' else
He'd trade the world
For a good thing he's found

If she is bad, he can't see it
She can do no wrong
He turns his back on his best friend 

If he puts her down

Yes, When a man loves a woman
Spend his very last dime
Trying to hold on to what he needs

He'd give up all of his comforts
Yes, and sleep out in the rain
If she said that's the way
It´s gotta be

Well, this man loves the woman
(yes I do)
I give her everything I have
Trying to hold on to her kind of love
Why if she treat me bad?

When a man loves a woman
I´ve talked about it down deep in the soul
She can bring him such misery

If she´s playing  for a fool
He's the very last one to know
Loving eyes can never see

Yes, when a man loves a woman
Oh, he spends his very last dime
Trying to hold on to what he needs

He'd give up all of his comforts
Oh, that fool sleeps out in the rain
If she said that's the way
It´s gotta be

(Instrumental)

When a man loves a woman
I need it down deep in the soul

It's too late - Johnny Rivers (1967) (with lyrics)

(Lyrics)

I remember when I told you
I would try in every way
To hold you, and love you
And kiss you and keep you
Till my dying day

You just laughed
Said you found somebody new
Someone to make me
Forget about you

And now you tell me
That your new love
Isn´t true
Like he should be
You say that you´re gonna forget him
And you´re gonna come back to me

But things have changed
I got me somebody new
Someone to make me
Forget about you
I´m telling you

That it´s too late
To say you´re sorry
It´s too late
To say you´re mine
I have found myself a new love
And I´m gonna make her mine

It´s too late
It´s too late

Many days I tried to call you
Many nights I sat alone
Everyone knew that I loved you
But you had a love of your own

And now that he´s gone
You think you can come back to me
I´m not the same fool
That I used to be
And you´re gonna see

That it´s too late
To say you´re sorry
It´s too late
To say you´re mine
I have found myself a new love
And I´m gonna make her mine

It´s too late
It´s too late
To say you´re mine, 

ha, ha ,ha

ha, ha, ha

I remember when I told you
I would try in every way
To hold you, and kiss you
And keep you, baby
Till my dying day

But you just laughed, ha
Said you found somebody new
Someone to make me
Forget about you

And then you tell me
That this new love
Isn´t true
Like he should be
You say that you´re gonna forget him
And you´re gonna come back to me

But things have changed
I got me somebody new
Someone to make me
Forget about you
I´m telling you

That it´s too late
To say you´re sorry
It´s too late
To say you´re mine
I have found myself a new love
And I´m gonna make her mine

It´s too late
It´s too late

To say you´re mine, ha, ha, ha

It´s too late
To say you´re sorry
It´s too late
To say you´re mine
I have found myself a new love
And I´m gonna make her mine

It´s too late
It´s too late

To say you´re mine, ha, ha, ha
