Description: Something's Gotten Hold Of My Heart -
"Gene Pitney" -
Year Song Released 1967
Something`s gotten hold of my heart
Keeping my soul and my senses apart
Something`s gotten into my life
Cutting its way through my dreams like a knife
Turning me up, turning me down
Making me smile and making me frown
In a world that was war
I once lived in a time that was peace
With no trouble at all
But then you came my way
And a feeling unknown shook my heart
Made me want you to stay
All of my nights and all of my days
Yeah I gotta tell you now
Something`s gotten hold of my hand
Dragging my soul to a beautiful land
Yeah something has invaded my nights
Painting my sleep with a colour so bright
Changing the grey, changing the blue
Scarlet for me and scarlet for you
I`ve got to know if this is the real thing
I`ve got to know what`s making my heart sing, woah yeah
You smile and Iam lost for a lifetime
Each minute spent with you is the right time
Every hour, yeah, every day, yeah
You touch me and my mind goes astray
And baby yeah...
And baby yeah...
Something`s gotten hold of my hand
Dragging my soul to a beautiful land
Yeah something has invaded my nights
(fading Out)
Painting my sleep with a colour so bright
Changing the grey, changing the blue

Description: Mecca - Gene Pitney - Peak Position;#4 in 1963 - Lyrics
(opening instrumental--chiefly Indian fakir's flute)
I live on the West side, she lives on the East side of the stree-ee-eet.
And though they say that East is East, and West is West
And never the twain shall meet.
Each morning I face her window, and pray that our love can be.
'cause that brownstone house where my baby lives.
Is Mecca (Mecca, Mecca, Mecca) Mecca (Mecca, Mecca) to me-e-e-e-e-e.
Oh she's my dream goddess, and her ruby lips are so div-i-ine.
And though her folks say we're too young, to know of love.
I worship at her shrine. (Mecca, Mecca)
Each morning I face her window, and pray that our love can be.
'cause that brownstone house where my baby lives.
Is Mecca (Mecca, Mecca, Mecca) Mecca (Mecca, Mecca) to me-e-e-e-e-e.
---(Musical Interlude)---
Each morning I face her window, and pray that our love can be.
'cause that brownstone house where my baby lives.
Is Mecca (Mecca, Mecca, Mecca) Mecca (Mecca, Mecca) to me-e-e-e-e-e...

Description: Just One Smile -
"Gene Pitney" -
Peak Position;#64 in1967
Can`t I cry? A little bit.
There`s nobody to notice it.
Can`t I cry if I want to
No one cares?
Why can`t I pretend,
That you love me again?
All I`ve had has been taken from me.
Now I`m crying, and tears don`t become me.
Just one smile, the pain`s forgiven.
Just one kiss, the hurt`s all gone.
Just one smile, to make my life worth livin'.
A little dream to build my world upon.
How I wish I could say.
All the things that I want to say.
If some way you could see what`s in my heart.
I don`t ask for much.
A look, a smile, a touch.
Try to forget, Lord knows I`m trying.
But it`s hard to forget, when your whole world is dying.
Just one smile, the pain`s forgiven.
Just one kiss, the hurt`s all gone.
Just one smile, to make my life worth livin'.
A little dream to build my world upon.
(fading)
Just one smile, the pain`s forgiven.
Ahh just one kiss, the hurt`s all gone...
