I Love You, What More Can I Say?
I`m Gonna Try
(2010, lyrics and music by Stas Gasilin)
Every little boy knows about this
Every little girl knows about this
Every little dog and every little sparrow
Knows about this, they all know about this
Only she doesn`t know, no, she doesn`t know
Only she doesn`t know I love her so because I didn`t tell her
I didn`t, you know, because I was too shy
I didn`t, you know, because I was too timid
I didn`t because I was afraid a little bit
But I won`t be shy any more
And I`m gonna change the situation
I`m gonna tell her all about my love and see her reaction
I hope she won`t hate me
And won`t be afraid of me
And won`t burst out laughing
I hope she will love me, too, ooh-ooh
Hope she`ll love me, too
Although I`m not sure of this but I`m gonna try
Yes, I`m gonna try! I`m gonna try, I`m gonna try, I`m gonna try
Every little boy knows about this
Every little girl knows about this
Every little dog and every little sparrow
Knows about this, they all know about this
Only she doesn`t know, no, she doesn`t know I love her so
But I`m gonna tell her all about this thing and see her reaction
Yes, I`m gonna try! I`m gonna try, I`m gonna try, I`m gonna try
I`m gonna try! Yeah! I`m gonna try, I`m gonna try, I`m gonna try
Prayer
(2010, lyrics and music by Stas Gasilin)
Oh Lord, how I love that woman
But she can`t be with me
Mercy me, Jesus, mercy me
Because she doesn`t love me
Help me be joyful tomorrow
Forgive me I`m so sad tonight
Mercy me, Jesus, mercy me
Tell me is everything right?
You know I used Your gifts
To write her eulogy
But all this didn`t make sense
Because she doesn`t want me
Help me not think of her
Cos my heart is filled with pain
Help me think of something else
And not return to her again and again
Oh Lord, how I love that woman
But she said she couldn`t be mine
Mercy me, Jesus, mercy me
Forgive me `cos I am not fine
I thank you, Jesus, I thank you
I`m so happy I met that girl
Thank you for love you filled my heart with
And for those minutes that I spent with her
I`m so happy we met each other
But so unhappy she can`t be my girl
Cos I don`t want to have any other
But unfortunately I can`t live alone
But tell me, Lord, please tell me
Could she ever change her mind?
Tell me could she ever want to be mine?
Oh Lord, how I love that woman
Please forgive me my tears
Tell me why doesn`t she love me?
Mercy me, mercy me please
Save us, Jesus, save us
Let us be always with you
Save us, Jesus, save us
Be forever with us
Christ Is Risen!
(2012, lyrics and music by Stas Gasilin)
I wake up each day
And I say to the sun
‘Christ is risen!
Come and praise my Lord with me’
I open my window
And I cry to the world
‘Christ is risen!
Come and praise my Lord with me’
You know He died for you and me
And we all were in misery
But He did not leave us alone
He resurrected
So come and praise my Lord with me
I wake up every morning
And the spring says to me
‘Christ is risen!
Come and praise my Lord with me’
I go to the town
And say to everyone
‘Christ is risen!
Come and praise my Lord with me’
You know He died instead of me
And we all were in misery
But He did not leave us in tears
He resurrected
As it was written, as it had to be
He resurrected
So come and praise my Lord with me
Be My Girl
(2010, lyrics and music by Stas Gasilin)
I met a young girl as pretty as any
Her smile was so bright and her skin was so pale
Her voice sounded like some beautiful song
Her eyes, they were black and her hair, it was blonde
This pretty young maid soon cut me to the heart
With her style and her beauty she got me entirely charmed
I tried to get close to her but all was in vain
She kept me at a distance and she was right in a way
But I want her to hear me say
Please be my girl
Please be my love
I love you so
Say isn`t it enough for you?
Isn`t it enough?
She`s 20 years old, she never looks back
She is a gentle soul and she`s a student of Filfak
Her major is psycholinguistics, she speaks fluently French
She likes to go to the theatre and look at me from the stage
When it was her birthday I gave her a mountain lily
And read to her my new poem, I hoped she would guess my feelings
She smiled at me and she thanked me, she was so polite
But she was still keeping the distance and never let me ask her out
Let her hear me singing aloud
Please be my girl...
Now listen to me, Julia dear
I think you don`t know how big my love is
I love you like an old ship loves to be again on the sail
I need you just like a train for its ride needs sleepers and rails
I love you like a good shepherd loves his humble sheep
I need you just like a traveller needs a good night sleep
I love you like the wild honey is loved by the bees
I need you like this tortured planet really needs some peace
Here I am on my bended knees
Please be my girl
Please be my love
I love you so
Say isn`t it enough?
(repeat)
Isn`t it enough for you?
I Will Give You A Bird
(2010, lyrics and music by Stas Gasilin)
I will give you a bird
He will sing you a song
When you listen to it
You will think of me, my darling
I will give you a flower
You`ll put it in a jar
The bees will fly for the nectar
And they`ll buzz you a song of my love for you
I will give you a ring
You`ll put it on your thin finger
And every time that you look at it
You will think of me, my darling
I will give you my heart
Please keep it close to yours
I will give you my love
Please be careful with it, my darling
I will give you the sun
To shine for you in the night
You can switch it on and off
Every time that you need, my darling
I will give you a star
And everywhere that you go
You can take it with you
To show you the way, my darling
I will give you my heart...
I will give you a flower
You`ll put it in a jar
The bees will fly for the nectar
And they`ll die of love for you, my darling
I will give you my heart...
Please be careful with it, my darling
I Love You, What More Can I Say?
(2010, lyrics and music by Stas Gasilin)
I love you, what more can I say?
I`m thinking of you night and day
Oh baby, won`t you pity me?
Say that you love me also
I love you and you know this
Oh won`t you kiss me, please?
Oh baby, won`t you pity me?
Won`t you give me your sweet kiss, darling?
I love you, what can I do?
I want to spend my life with you
I beg you, woman, don`t be cruel
Say that you want it, too, hm-hm...
I love you and that is it
I love you and you see it
Oh baby, please be merciful
How can you be so beautiful and charming?
(Alright!)
I love you, what more can I say?
I`m thinking of you night and day
Oh baby, won`t you pity me?
Say that you love me also, also, also
(Alright!)
Pretty Peggy-O
(Traditional)
Invisible Julia, Mother Goose & Friends version:
As we marched down, as we marched down
As we marched down to Fennario
Our captain fell in love with a lady like a dove
And the name she had was Pretty Peggy-O
Come a-running down the stairs, come a-running down the stairs
Come a-running down the stairs, Pretty Peggy-O
Come a-running down the stairs, combing back your yellow hair
You`re the prettiest little girl that I ever seen-io
What will your mother say? What will your mother say?
What will your mother say, Pretty Peggy-O?
What will your mother say when she finds you`ve gone away
And you`ll never, never, never coming back-io?
In a carriage you will ride, in a carriage you will ride
In a carriage you will ride, Pretty Peggy-O
In a carriage you will ride with your true love by your side
And never, never, never coming back-io
The lieutenant, he is gone, the lieutenant, he is gone
The lieutenant, he is gone, Pretty Peggy-O
The lieutenant, he is gone, gone
He`s buried on Texas in Lousiana-ho
Well, the captain, he is dead, well, the captain, he is dead,
Well, the captain, he is dead, Pretty Peggy-O
Well, the captain, he is dead, he died, ha
And down buried, some down Texas, Louisiana-ho
If ever I return, if ever I return
If ever I return, Pretty Peggy-O
If ever I return all your cities I will...
Destroying... hm...
Version for a live performance:
(Pretty Peggy-O)
As we marched down, as we marched down
As we marched down to Fennario
Our captain fell in love with a lady like a dove
And the name she had was Pretty Peggy-O
What will your mother say? What will your mother say?
What will your mother say, Pretty Peggy-O?
What will your mother say to know you`re gonna `way
You`re never, never, never coming back-io?
Come a-running down your stairs, come a-running down your stairs
Come a-running down your stairs, Pretty Peggy-O
Come a-running down your stairs, combing back your yellow hair
You`re the prettiest little girl that I ever seen-io
The lieutenant, he has gone, the lieutenant, he has gone
The lieutenant, he has gone, Pretty Peggy-O
The lieutenant, he has gone, long gone
He`s a-riding down in Texas with the rodeo
Our captain, he is dead, our captain, he is dead
Our captain, he is dead, Pretty Peggy-O
Our captain, he is dead, died for a maid
He`s buried somewhere in Louisiana-O
I Say Hello To Mary Lo
(2015, lyrics and music by Stas Gasilin)
I say hello to Mary Lo
When she`s already on the go
When she doesn`t want to know
Me or my love I want to show
Hello, hello, Mary Lo!
Hello! How are you doing?
Hello, hello Mary Lo!
Where have you been? Where are you going?
Do you believe that I`m still mowing
That crazy lawn we sat upon
When our love was born
And we sang our song
But now the summer has already gone
And the wintertime has come
I say hello to Mary Lo
When there isn`t too much hope
When her answer is still no
Just because I love her so
Hello, hello, Mary Lo!
Hello! How are you doing?
Hello, hello, Mary Lo!
What have you done? What are you waiting for?
You know that I`m still painting
That crazy fence we leaned upon
When our love was young
And our song was sung
But now that time is dead and gone
And the wintertime has begun
Hello, hello!
Hello, hello, Mary Lo!
Hello! How are you doing?
Hello, hello, Mary Lo!
Where do you go? What are you facing?
Do you believe that I`m still chasing
Those butterflies in your black eyes
That used to fly so high
But now they all have died
Because the summer is dead and gone
And the frost`s become so strong
Hello, hello!
