Amerikanska och engelska evergreens är en toppenkälla.

Den här sången ska vi ha i kyrkan och på baksidan av vårt festprogram:


That´s all

I can only give you love that lasts forever
And a promise to be near each time you call,
And the only heart I own
For you and you alone,
That's all, that's all.

I can only give you country walks in springtime
And a hand to hold when leaves begin to fall,
And a love whose burning light
Will warm the winter night,
That's all, that's all.

There are those, I am sure, that have told you
They would give you the world for a toy.
All I have are these arms to enfold you
And a love time can never destroy.

If you're wondering what I'm asking in return, dear,
You'll be glad to know that my demands are small.
Say it's me that you'll adore
For now and ever more,
That's all...that's all.

Brandt Haymes heter upphovsmännen till sången/ texten och den finns inspelad med bla Rod Stewart (The great american songbook). En evergreen är en gammal sång/ schlager som liksom blivit klassisk (som man inte tröttnar på). Sinatra, Armstrong, Fitzgerald mfl gamla artister är typiska evergreensångare.

Det som är kul att det är lite "inne" med sådana igen, Michael Bublé, Robbie Williams och nämnde Stewart har gkort nyinspelningar med gamla evergreens.

På skivan med Rod Stewart är det massor med härliga texter...det hät är en annan favorit (som nog blir en sång i kyrkan den med!):

Why do I do, just as you say
Why must I just, give you your way
Why do I sigh, why don't I try to forget

It must have been,
That something lovers call fate
Kept me saying: "I have to wait"
I saw them all,
Just couldn't fall 'til we met

It had to be you, it had to be you
I wandered around, and finally found
The somebody who
Could make me be true,
And could make me be blue
And even be glad, just to be sad
Thinking of you

Some others I've seen,
Might never be mean
Might never be cross,
Or try to be boss
But they wouldn't do
For nobody else, gave me a thrill
With all your faults, I
Love you still
It had to be you, wonderful you
It had to be you

en gammal goding, Follow you follow me (genesis)

Stay with me,
My love I hope youll always be
Right here by my side if ever I need you
Oh my love

In your arms,
I feel so safe and so secure
Everyday is such a perfect day to spend
Alone with you

I will follow you will you follow me
All the days and nights that we know will be
I will stay with you will you stay with me
Just one single tear in each passing year

With the dark,
Oh I see so very clearly now
All my fears are drifting by me so slowly now
Fading away

I can say
The night is long but you are here
Close at hand, oh Im better for the smile you give
And while I live

I will follow you will you follow me
All the days and nights that we know will be
I will stay with you will you stay with me
Just one single tear in each passing year there will be

I will follow you will you follow me
All the days and nights that we know will be
I will stay with you will you stay with me
Just one single tear in each passing year...
