Title
- Saying "I love you"
- Just sayin' "I love you"
- Yesterday's songs
- Don't stay around long
- Not much anymore
- Yesterday's words
- Don't make themselves heard
- Like they did before
- Baby, yesterday's blues
- May be yesterday's news
- But the truth always stays the same
- And the good things will never change
- Like sayin' "I love you"
- Just sayin' "I love you"
- Yesterday's songs
- Don't seem to belong
- They're here and they're gone
- Yesterday's moves
- Don't stay in the grooves
- They keep moving on
- Maybe yesterday's rhyme
- Was for yesterday's time
- And the future's not ours to see
- But there's some things that always will be
- Like sayin' "I love you"
- Sayin' "I love you"
- Baby, yesterday's blues
- May be yesterday's news
- But the truth always stays the same
- And the good things will never change
- Like sayin' "I love you"
- Just sayin' "I love you"
- Sayin' "I love you"
- Like sayin' "I love you"
- Written by: Neil Diamond
- We are two and two of us are one
- I'm back on my feet again
- Out on the street again
- Looking for love
- On the way to the sky
- Some people moving up
- Some people standing still
- Some hold their hand out
- And some people never will
- Lover and liers
- Consumed by the fires
- Of too many dances
- But not enough songs
- Hear my song
- We pity the poor one
- The shy and unsure one
- Who wanted it perfect
- But waited too long
- There's no way to count
- Or to measure the cost
- Of the innocence lost
- On the way to the sky
- You and I
- And we are two and two of us are one
- But maybe two of us can be enough
- To get it done
- Lover and liers
- Consumed by the fires
- Of too many dances
- But not enough songs
- We pity the poor one
- The shy, the unsure one
- Who wanted it perfect
- But waited too long
- Much too long
- I'm back on my feet again
- I'm out on the street again
- Looking for love
- On the way to the sky
- You and I
- Written by: Neil Diamond
- Right by you, right by you
- Want to do right by you
- All night long
- Right by you, right by you
- Want to be right by you
- All night long
- Why don't you tell me
- I need to hear you say it
- Come on and tell me
- Just wanna hear it told
- Don't I do right by you
- Baby, don't I do right by you
- All night long
- Come on and say it
- I love to hear you whisper
- Just say you love me
- I got to hear it told
- Don't I do right by you
- Baby, don't I do right by you
- All night long
- Written by: Neil Diamond
- Only you
- You and the night and the right kind of music
- And ony you
- There's only you
- And only the moments that we've spent together will ever do
- And only me
- Me like the fool with his head in the cloud
- Could belive
- But I believe
- Dreams will come true
- With only you
- And so I dreamed
- I'll wait for the moment I'm praying and hoping that what I dreamed
- Will soon come true
- I'll have you forever and never be lonely again
- Not only friends, but lovers too
- With only you
- Me, I was that fool on the hill
- You know I will be waiting there still
- Hoping you'd come back again
- I heard your name
- Echoing soft thru the trees
- I know it was calling to me
- And nothing could keep me away
- I only wanted to hold you
- And only you
- There's only you
- And only me
- Me like the fool with his head in the cloud
- Could belive
- But I believe
- Dreams will come true
- With only you
- Me, I was that fool on the hill
- You know I will be waiting there still
- Hoping you'd come back again
- I heard your name
- Echoing soft thru the trees
- I know it was calling to me
- And nothing could keep me away
- I only wanted to hold you
- And only you
- You and the night and the right kind of music
- And ony you
- Hey, there's only you
- Only you
- Hey, it's only you
- Only you
- Written by: Neil Diamond
- Hey I know
- When the wind comes blowing across the meadows
- It sings your name
- And I've seen
- The starry nights fall across the ghettos
- It sings the same
- And I feel
- The light in your eye
- And it's calling me
- Stay, just a little bit longer
- It burns
- Like a fiery star
- In the midst of the night
- And it's pulling me under
- Can anybody save me, save me
- Save me from the storm
- Save me, save me
- Save me, 'fore I'm gone
- I'm only a man
- And a man's gotta break
- There's a lot who can stand
- But not a lot who can take
- Save me
- Something is taking me over
- And there's no place that I can hide
- Sweet dreams
- My love and I by the edge of the river
- Are feeling that glow
- And we drink
- Making love in the sand
- And I love being with her
- But I got to go slow
- 'Cause I know
- Just as sure as the waves come beat on the sand
- I'm a man who's divided
- And one night
- Burning hot with a kiss and I try to resist
- But there's no way to fight it
- Hey, can anybody save me, save me
- Save me from the storm
- Save me, save me
- Save me, 'fore I'm gone
- I'm only a man
- And a man's gotta break
- There's a lot who can stand
- But not a lot who can take
- Save me
- Something is taking me over
- And there's no where that I can hide
- Won't you save me
- Someone is making me love her
- It's breaking me up inside
- Save me now
- Written by: Neil Diamond
- I never needed to hear the truth
- You never wanted to know
- I never wanted to be unkind
- But then something kept telling me go
- There was something kept telling me go
- We stayed together like birds in a cage
- But then one of us had to get free
- But who had the heart to say goodbye
- Wasn't you so it had to be me
- Wasn't you so it had to be me
- You told me to go when I wanted to stay
- Breaking me over in every way
- Telling me just what to do with my life
- But, oh, I wish you could be mine
- Oh, I wish you would be mine tonight
- Be mine tonight, tonight
- Be mine tonight
- We never knew it for what it was worth
- It was worth more than we understood
- We never got past the lies and the hurt
- And it hurt even when it was good
- Yes it hurt even when it was good
- Written by: Neil Diamond
- Well, I am the drifter
- I walk the highways
- I cross the river
- That rolls on forgotten
- I sing for the living
- Live for the trying
- But what's it about
- If you got to be trying alone
- And I'm the dreamer
- Who climbed the mountain
- Who saw forever
- Across the ocean
- But you found me waiting
- And knew that I would
- Be lost forever
- I kept on trying alone
- They call me the drifter
- And I walk the highways
- I crossed every river
- That rolled on forgotten
- I'd sing for the living
- But inside was dying
- 'Cause what's it about
- If you got to be trying alone
- Well, I'm the drifter
- Who solved the answer
- And when I found you
- I knew for ever
- Would be for ever
- And not for some time
- And you'd be mine
- Won't have to be trying alone
- Now I sing like a dreamer
- And I walk like I'm flying
- I looked in your eyes
- There was no use denying
- You cared for that moment
- And I knew the answer
- I came for a while
- And I stayed for the rest of my life
- I came for a while
- And I stayed for the rest of my life
- I came for a while
- And I stayed for the rest of my life
- Well, I was the drifter
- And I walked the highways
- I crossed every river
- That rolled on forgotten
- I sang for the living
- And lived for the trying
- I came for a while
- And I stayed for the rest of my life
- Written by: Neil Diamond
- Fear of the marketplace
- Afraid of the world outside a door
- Maybe it's cold out there
- And if it's cold, you can't come home anymore
- Fear of the marketplace
- Just gotta forget the whole damned thing
- You're ready to take that fling
- You're ready to make it swing, you've done it before
- Just open the door
- You and I
- Know we tried
- Tried it all before
- And we almost made it thru
- Long ago
- Is so far away
- Like a flame that would burn
- In the heart of the night
- Like a flame that would burn
- Giving heat, giving light
- It was right, yeah
- Fear of the marketplace
- Just taking that ride inside your head
- Are you alive, or dead
- When you're alive
- You get to try one more time
- It's gonna be fine
- Gonna be fine
- Try one more time
- You can try one more time
- Won¡¯y you try one more time
- Come on and try one more time
- We can try, just one more time
- One more time
- We can try
- Come on try, just one more time
- One more time
- Written by: Neil Diamond
- Can you hear my rainy day song
- Calling from the street below
- Baby, since I've been without you
- Well, it's the only song I know
- And I keep hearing rainy day songs
- Tapping on my window sill
- Some that soon won't be forgotten
- Some that probably never will
- Say, I know you never did believe in rainbows
- But hey, you know the sun is somehow gonna shine
- And babe, we only have to look and we can find it
- If we want to, if we need to
- It's just another rainy day song
- Way beneath the sorry sky
- And when I try to understand it
- I only end up asking why
- But still I hear those rainy day songs
- Calling out to me and you
- I only hope that you can hear them
- 'Cause rainy days are made for two
- Say, you know there's always gonna be a rainbow
- And hey, you know that sun is always gonna shine
- Come on babe, we only have to look and we can find it
- If we want to, if we need to
- Can you hear that rainy day song
- It's such a lost and lonely sound
- But baby when I have you near me
- Rainy days can't get me down
- Babe, I need to have you near me
- Cause rainy days, they get me down
- Babe, I got to have you near me
- So rainy days won't come around
- Written by: Neil Diamond
- Hey little boy
- Just sitting on your back porch
- Picking on your guitar
- Wishing you were far away
- Well, I can tell
- You've had a little bit fo a dream
- I see it in your eyes
- I can hear it in the songs you play
- And hey little boy
- Just play it like you feel it
- Make it so real
- It's almost to real to take
- Just swing it like a player
- Make it like a prayer
- It's one from the heart
- Give it all of the hear it can take
- And when you play what you wanna play
- Just reach down to the soul
- You keep on growing and you'll know some day
- That sound is gonna turn into gold
- Boy, you're taking me there
- To guitar heaven
- And without saying a word
- You lay it all on the line
- And make me leave my cares
- In guitar heaven
- Just go and play your song
- I could stay all night
- Play it son
- (guitar solo)
- You know, you're taking me there
- To guitar heaven
- You make me feel every sound
- You make it shine like a light
- I'm gonna lose my cares
- In guitar heaven
- You go and play that song
- I'm gonna stay a while
- Go and play that song, boy
- I'm gonna stay a while
- The way you play that song
- Makes me wanna smile
