Bobby Goldsboro Lyrics 1


<See The Funny Little Clown>

See the funny little clown
See him laughing as you walk by
Everybody thinks he's happy
'Cause you never
see a tear in his eye
No one knows he's crying
No one knows he's dying on the inside
'Cause he's laughing on the outside
No one knows, no one knows

See the funny little clown
He's hiding behind a smile
They all think he's laughing
But I know he's really crying all the while
How his heart is aching
How his heart is breaking on the inside
But he keeps laughing on the outside
No one knows, no one knows

This funny little clown
You never used to see him around
Without his girl beside him to love and guide him
Until one day his girl just walked away
And to this very day
He says he never loved her anyway
And no one knows, expect for me
Because you see, I'm that funny little clown
See the funny little clown

<Little Things>

Little things that you do
Make me glad I'm in love with you
Little things that you say
Make me glad that I feel this way

The way you smile, the way you hold my hand
And when I'm down you always understand
You know I love those little things in my ear
That you say when there's no one near
Little things that you do
Let me know that your love is true

When we walk you like to hold my hand
And when we talk you tell me I'm your man
You know I love those little things that I hear
The little things you whisper in my ear
I know there ain't nobody else like you
No one could do the little things you do

<Voodoo Woman>

You make a rose afraid to grow
You make the wind forget to blow
You make the sun up in the sky forget to shine
And you are driving me out of my mind
You make the bell forget to ring
You make a bird forget to sing
You make a weeping willow tree forget to cry
And you bring clouds that cover up the sky

You're a voodoo woman, that's plain to me
You're a voodoo woman, so stay away from me
You make a dog forget to glowl
You make the wind forget to howl
And voodoo woman, you break every heart you see
So voodoo woman, stay away from me

<Whenever He Holds You>

Take your little heart, tear it all apart
Make the tear-drops fall, from your eyes
And you'll know how I feel when he holds you
Whenever he holds you

Pretend no one love you, make believe you'll blue
And if you get an empty feeling deep inside
Then you'll know how I feel when he holds you
Whenever he holds you


My friends say forget you, I know I should try
But whenever he holds you, I feel I could die
But if you ever find, that I'm still on your mind
Maybe you'll come back to my heart
Till then I'll cry, when he holds you
Whenever he holds you


<Blue Autumn>

Blue autumn, falling leaves of red and gold
Pretty colors I am told, but I see only shades of blue
Because I'm losing you
Blue Autumn there's a rainbow in the sky
But no matter how I try, I still see only shades of blue
Because I'm losing you
Such pretty color I am told there for all to see
But falling leaves of red and gold have all turned blue to me

Blue autumn, a love like yours I'll never know
Other girls may come and go, but I'll see only shades of you
And all my autumn will be blue


<Honey>

See the tree, how big it's grown
But friend, it hasn't been too long, it wasn't big
I laughed at her and she go mad
The first day that she planted it, was just a twing

Then the first snow came
And she ran up to brush the snow away so it wouldn't die
Came running in, all excited
Slipped and almost hurt herself and I laughed till I cried
She was always young at heart, kind of dumb and kind of smart
And I loved her so
And I surprised her with a puppy
Kept me awake all Christmas Eve two years ago
And it would sure embarrass her when I came in from working late
'Cause I would know
That she'd been sitting there and crying
Over some sad and silly late late show
And honey, I miss you and I'm being good
And I'd love to be with you if only I could
She wrecked the car and she was sad
And so afraid that I'd be mad, but what the heck
Though I pretended hard to be
Guess you could say she saw through me and hugged my neck
I came home unexpectedly
And caught her crying needlessly in the middle of the day
And it was in the early spring, when flowers bloom and robins sing
She went away
And Honey, I miss you and I'm being good
And I'd love to be with you if only I could
One day while I was not at home
While she was there and all alone, the angles came
Now all I have is memories of Honey

And I wake up nights and call her name
Now my life's an empty stage
Where Honey lived and Honey played
And love grew up
And a small cloud passes overhead
And cries down on the flower bed that Honey loved


<Me Japanese Boy, I Love You>

Long long ago in a land far away
A little boy and a girl were so in love
Standing neath the moon above

He said "Me Japanese Boy, I love you, I do love you
You Japanese Girl, you love me please say you do"

They carved their names on an cherry tree
Just like they've done in Japan since time began
Then he gently held her hand

And said "Me Japaneses Boy, I love you, I do love you
You Japaneses Girl, you love me, please say you do"

In a blue and white Kimono
She became his happy bride
From that day until this very moment
She'd been standing by his side

Now they are old and from what I am told
They're still in love just as much as they once were
Every night he kissed her
And said "Me Japanese Boy, I love you, I do love you"
There is the way that it should be when love is true
There is the way that it should be for me and you

<Autumn Of My Life>

In the spring of my life she came to me
She brought sunshine where winter winds had blown
Then I took her for my wife in the spring of my life
And she brought me a joy I'd never known
And the years, they went by in the spring of my life
And in summer she blessed me with a child
Love continued to grow in the summer of my life
And in every morning sun I saw her smile

But in the autumn of my years I noticed the tears
And I knew that our life was in the past
Though I tried to pretend, I knew it was the end
For the autumn of my life had come at last
Now what, what do you say to a child of ten
How do you tell him his daddy's going away
Do I tell him that I've reached the autumn of my life
And that he'll understand some winter's day

Now a rose can't be found on a snow-covered ground
And the sun cannot shine through cloudys
But I'm richer you see for the years she gave to
And I'm content in the autumn of my life
