Here's four more songs. I think they were all written in the Sixties.

  

Can't Stop Loving You

I need you and I want you and I can't stop loving you.
I want to be near you and I can't stay away from you
How can I help but love you when I see you every day?
Can I help it if I'm drawn to you this way?

I'm thinking and dreaming of you just all the time
Hoping that someday I'm going to make you mine
But wishing and hoping I know does not get through
I've just got to go on chasing after you.

Can't stop can't stop, can't stop lovin'
O don't know if I'm going or coming...
I can't stop I can't stop, can't stop loving you.

I try to go away, but keep on turning round
And going back to meet you and then I'm thinking out loud
Of how that I can keep you and hold you by my side
And of every way I can to take up all of your time.

Can't stop can't stop, can't stop lovin'
O don't know if I'm going or coming...
I can't stop I can't stop, can't stop loving you.
Can't stop, can't stop loving you.

  

An Old Fashion Song

I'm going to write an old fashion song about you,
Am. going to put in words that rhyme with you
I'm going to say that I love you,
That I want you to be true...
In my old fashion song about you.

I'm going to say all the things you want to hear.
Lovely thoughts from way back in yesteryear.
Can I help it if you make me feel
Like a kid on his first Ferris Wheel?
In my old Fashion song about you.

An old Fashion song An old Fashion song about you
That's the only kind that will ever do
An old fashion song, an old fashion song about you
That's the only kind good enough for you.

I'm not ashamed of the good old fashion things
Like pretty eyes and diamond rings.
Like romance in the fill of the moon
And birds singing sweetly in the month of June.
They're in my old fashion song about you.

An old Fashion song An old Fashion song about you
That's the only kind that will ever do
An old fashion song, an old fashion song about you
That's the only kind good enough for you.

  

How Did You Know?

How did you ever know that I really want you?
How did you ever know that I really care?
How did you ever know that I love you so?
How did you, did you, did you ever know?
Did someone tell you that I was in love?
Did someone tell you who I'm dreaming of?
Did someone tell you - I've really got to know?
How did you, did you, did you ever know?

How did you ever guess?
I might as well confess - I want you forever.
How did you ever know?
I guess maybe it shows when we're together.

Whatever made you think it's you I'm dreaming of?
Whatever made you think that I'm so in love?
An angel must have told you from above
How did you, did you, did you ever know?
I don't know how you knew it.
I don't know how you did
Someone must have told on me.
That's the only thing it could be.

How did you ever guess?
I might as well confess - I want you forever.
How did you ever know?
I guess maybe it shows when we're together.

How did you ever know that I really want you?
How did you ever know that I really care?
How did you ever know that I love you so?
How did you, did you, did you ever know?

  

If You Don't Think I Love You

If you don't think that I love you
How can you say that the sky is blue?
You've got to know that I really do...
I love you. I love you.

If you don't think that you are mine,
How can you say that the sun does shine?
Take all my love and you'll be fine
Because you're mine. You, you're mine.

Once I have felt your love
I must then have your love
It makes my whole world real.
And now I must confide
I have this love inside
That you, that you must feel.

If you don't think I want you near
Then a child has never shed a tear
Let me love you and never fear...
I want you near, I want you near.

There's something that you must know,
I'll love you as long as water flows;
And as deep as the ocean goes
You must know, you must know.

Once I have felt your love
I must then have your love
It makes my whole world real.
And now I must confide
I have this love inside
That you, that you must feel.
That you... that you - must feel...
