(Live) Any Day Now Any day now, I will hear you say, "Goodbye my love" You'll be on your way And my wild, beautiful bird, You will have flown, yeah! Any day now, I'll be all alone And you won't be around Any day now, when your restless eyes meet someone new To my sad surprise And the blue shadows will fall all over town, Any day now, you won't be around Any love will let me down I shouldn't want to keep you if you don't want to stay And until you're gone forever I'll be holding on for dear life, holding on Holding you this way And I'm begging you to stay Any day now, when the clock strikes go, you'll go away Then my tears will fall And the blue shadows will fall all over town, yeah! Any day now, you won't be around, And love will let me down Baby It's You It's not the way you smile That touches my heart It's not the way you kiss That tears me apart (*) Many, many, many nights go by I sit alone At home I cry Over you What can I do Can't help myself 'Cause baby it's you You should hear what they're saying about you They say you've never Never, never been true Oh! No! No! It doesnt matter what they say I'm gonna love you any old way What can I do When it's true Don't want nobody 'Cause baby it's you Repeat (*) Knowing When To Leave Go while the going is good Knowing when to leave may be The smartest thing anyone can learn, go! I'm afraid my heart isn't very smart Fly while your still have your wings Knowing when to leave won't let you reach The point of no return, fly! Foolish as it seems I still have my dreams So I keep hoping, day after day As I wait for the man And each night after night as I wish For the love he can be Though I'm sure that no one can tell what are Whishes and hopefully, somehow I fell There is happiness waiting for me When someone walks in your life You just better be sure he's right 'Cause if he's found out, heartches and tears you must pay Keep both of your eyes on the door Never let it get out of sight Just be prepared when the time has come You aren't away Sail when the wind starts to blow Bul like a fool I don't know when to leave Make It Easy On Yourself If you really love her And there is nothing I can do Don't try to spair my feelings Just tell me that we are through And make it easy on yourself Make it easy on yourself... 'Cause breaking up is so very hard to do If the way I hold you Can't compare to her caress No words of consolation will make me miss you less My darling... if this is goodbye I just know I want to cry... So run to her before you start crying too And make it easy on yourself... Make it easy on yourself... 'Cause breaking up is so very hard to do And make it easy on yourself Make it easy on yourself, easy on yourself Cause breaking up is so very hard to do (There's) Always Something There To Remind Me If you should miss The sweet and tender love we used to share That we used to share Just go back to the places where we used to go And I'll be there Oh, how can I forget you When there is always something there to remind me Always something there to remind me I was born to love you I will never be free You'll always be a part of me When there is always something there to remind me I'll Never Fall In Love Again Don't tell me what it's all about 'Cause I've been there and I'm glad I'm out Out of those chains, those chains that blind you That is why I'm here to remind you Here to remind you Here to remind you Here to remind you What do you get when you fall in love? You only get lies and pain and sorrow So for at least until tomorrow I'll never fall in love again Oh, I'll never fall in love again Walk On By If you see me walking down the street And I start to cry each time we meet Walk on by, walk on by Make believe you don't see the tears Just let me breathe in private 'Cause each time I see you I break down and cry Walk on by I just can't get over losing you So if I should seem broken and blue Walk on by, walk on by Foolish pride that's all that I have left So let me have the tears and the sadness you gave me When you said good-bye Walk on by, by Do You Know The Way To San Jose Do you know the way to San Jose? I've been away so long I may go wrong and lose my way Do you know the way to San Jose? I'm going back to find some place of mind San Jose L.A. is a great big freeway Put a $100 down and buy a car In a week, maybe two they'll make you a star Weeks turn into years, that quick they pass And all the stars there never were Are parking cars and punping gas I've got lots of friends in San Jose Can't wait to get back to San Jose Do you know the way to San Jose?
