My girl can’t stand to be Without her Eau de Vie “Avon calling” is what she wants to hear

PAVANNE Written & Composed by Michael Woodhead Copyright ©1968, 2021
Stars caress her brow Do you know her now Do you know I ran from Pavanne
Twinkling over her sweet lips Wanting to kiss, I slip You know why I ran from Pavanne
CHORUS: I couldn't stand the pleasure that she gave I couldn't understand my life she'd save So I ran from Pavanne
Trying to reach her arms Still I fell for her charms Still you know I ran from Pavanne
CHORUS: I couldn't stand the pleasure that she gave I couldn't understand my life she'd save So I ran from Pavanne
WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO ME Written & Composed by Michael Woodhead Copyright © 1966, 2021
I tried foreknowing Where you were going with him What is brewing I can't see What are you doing to me Hey, I thought that you were mine But now you're there with him Sharing the time And sharing the wine My chances do seem slim
What are you trying Why are you sighing like that Are you undoing Do you disagree What are you doing to me
[Musical Interlude]
I feel like dying When I start crying like this No more pursuing Just you wait and see What are you doing to me Hey, I thought that you were mine But now you're there with him Sharing the time And sharing the wine My chances do seem slim
AT MIDNIGHT Written & Composed by Michael Woodhead Copyright © 1967, 2021
I walked alone with no one at my side at midnight I walked on home with no one till I cried at midnight I can’t stand it I need someone to love I won’t mind it If I see her face above my own
[Musical Interlude]
I walked along with no one for my own at midnight I tarried long till the tears flowed from my eyes at midnight I won’t leave her That’s for sure I won’t leave her Anymore
WHEN I SEE YOU COMING Written & Composed by Michael Woodhead Copyright © 1967, 2021
I remember all the times When I would listen to the chimes of love I recall the things I felt When I would on my knees be knelt, my love When I see you coming
I can now recall the days When you and I went separate ways alone I'd return once more to you And to the feelings that I knew at home When I see you coming
Think of all the times when you were mine Think of all the times when you were fine Think of me and try to come back home Where I'll return to your arms and your charms
I remember all the times When I would listen to the chimes of love I recall the things I felt When I would on my knees be knelt, my love When I see you coming
Think of all the times when you were mine Think of all the times when you were fine Think of me and try to come back home Where I'll return to your arms and your charms
