The Wedding Cake / Connie Francis
Don't be troubled 'bout me cause I'm tired
From workin' 'round the house
When day is done
Don't think you failed me cause you can't afford
That dishwasher to make my life more fun
You know, the measure of a man is
Much more than just the money he can make
And every woman knows a lot of joy and tears
Come with the wedding cake
The wedding cake is not all icing
And love and tender whispers in the dark
One slice is concern for all your dreams prayed
They won't come true and break your heart
Another slice is feedin' kids and wipin' noses
Cryin' when the doorbell rings and there are roses
Every woman knows a lot of give and take
Comes with the wedding cake
It's facin' shadows of the future
Prayin' they will fall away as we walk toward them
Searchin' for the sun
And it's long and anxious hours with the wolf at the door
Hugs and kisses when, at last, we see the dawn
So when the hands of time trace tellin' lines upon our face
And lace our hair with strands of gray
We laugh and say for all who will partake
It all comes with the wedding cake
Yes, for all who will partake
It all comes with the wedding cake
Careless Love - Connie Francis
Love oh love oh careless love
Love oh love oh careless love
Love oh love oh careless love
Oh see what love has done to me
(Oh sorrow sorrow to my heart) to my heart
(When me and my true love have to part) we have to part
Oh mama mama don't you cry for I'll get another by and by
What oh what will mama say (what mama say)
When she learns I've done astray (I've done astray)
I love my mama and my papa too
I'd leave them both to go with you
Love oh love oh careless love
Love oh love oh careless love
Love oh love oh careless love
Oh see what love has done to me
Pearly shells-Connie Francis
Pearly shells
From the ocean
Shining in the sun
Covering the shore
When I see them
My heart tells me that I love you
More than all the little pearly shells
For ev'ry grain of sand upon the beach
I've got a kiss for you
And I've got more left over
For each star that twinkles in the blue
Pu u ku (Pearly shells)
I ka nuku (From the ocean)
E lawe mai (Shining in the sun)
I ka meya ho (Covering the shore)
Ahe alohe (When I see them)
Mai nau ka puuloahe ma
I il all the little pearly shells
Pearly shells
From the ocean
Shining in the sun
Covering the shore
When I see them
My heart tells me that I love you
More than all the little pearly shells
More than all the little pearly shells
