(jobim /gimbel)

In my loneliness
When you're gone and i'm all by myself
And i need your caress
I just think of you
And the thought of you holding me near
Makes my loneliness soon disappear

Though you're far away
I have only to close my eyes
And you are back to stay
I just close my eyes
And the sadness that missing you brings
Soon is gone and this heart of mine sings

Yes i love you so
And that for me is all i need to know
I will wait for you
Till the stars fall from out of the sky
But what else can i do?
I will wait for you
Meditating how sweet it'll be
When you come back to me

Just the memory of your little smile
Makes everything worthwhile
You're so right for me
There could never be anyone new
Could thrill me the way that you do
No, i won't forget
For though you're gone i feel your nearness yet

Oh, i will wait for you
'til the stars fall from out of the sky
But what else can i do?
I will wait for you
Meditating how sweet love will be
When you come back to me

(barry manilow / enoch anderson)

She's a great little housewife
Though sometimes she talks like a fool
But she helps at the store in the holiday rush
And she picks up the kids after school
And she puts down the 'phone
When her husband comes home
And she changes from mother to wife
'til she feels the words hanging between them
And she hangs by her words to her life

She says....
I swear i love my husband
I love my kids
I wanted to be like my mother
But if i hadn't done it as soon as i did
Oh, there might have been time to be me for myself, for myself
So many things that she wishes
She don't even know what she's missing
And that's how she knows that she missed

She's a sweetheart except when she's moody
It's hard to get through to her then
Depressed for a while when the youngest was born
Ah, but that happens now and again
Ah, she might take a drink with the housework
Or when michael's kept late at the shop
A martini or two before dinner
But she always knows when to stop

She says....
I swear i love my husband
And i love my kids
And, though i wanted to be like my mother
But if i hadn't done it as soon as i did
Oh, there might have been time to be me for myself, for myself
So many things that she wishes
She don't even know what she's missing
And that's how she knows that she missed

Oh, they used to hold hands at the movies
Now it's seldom, if ever, they go
Once you pay for the sitter, and parking the car
There's no money left for the show
She was doing the dishes
When a glass fell and broke on the tile
And she cut her wrist, quite by mistake
It was real touch and go for a while

She says....
Oh god, i love my husband
And i love my kids
Well, i wanted to be like my mother
But if i hadn't done it as soon as i did
Oh, there might have been time to be me for myself, for myself
So many things that she wishes
She don't even know what she's missing
And that's how she knows that she missed

(jay gruska / robbie buchanan)

Here we are again
Off and on again
Every year just slips away
We keep meeting here
No-one else is near
Still, there's always more to say

I know, you know
There's no end
Still i'll always tell you
Friend, i love you

When the night finds us together
Time and time again
When the feeling just gets better
Time and time again
Can the moment last forever?
Time and time again

She never knows of me
And never wants to see
Sometimes you are in my eyes
Still, we'll go home to them
Until we meet again
How well we've come to know goodbyes

I know, you know
There's no end
Still i'll always tell you
Friend, i love you

When the night finds us together
Time and time again
When the feeling just gets better
Time and time again
Can the moment last forever?
Time and time again
And the feeling does get better
Time and time again

(westlake / springfield / salver)

French version of summer is over


Le soir qui descend doucement
Les fleurs qui se fanent lentement
Et tous ces bateaux
Qui ne vont plus sur l'eau
Tout me dit que l'

(record / sanders)

Why don't you stop
And look me over?
Am i the same girl
You used to know?
Why don't you stop
And think it over?
Am i the same girl
Whom you hurt so?

I'm the one you want
And i'm the one you need
I'm the one you love
The one you used to meet
Around the corner everyday
We would meet and slip away
But we were much too young
To love each other this way

Am i the same girl?
Yes i am, yes i am
Am i the same girl?
Yes i am, yes i am

Why don't you stop
And look me over?
Am i the same girl
You used to know?
Why don't you stop
And think it over?
Am i the same girl
Whom you hurt so?

I'm the one you hurt
And i'm the one you need
I'm the one who cried
The one you used to need
But you are pretending you don't care
But the fire, ahh, is still there
But we are no longer too young
To love each other this way

Am i the same girl?
Yes i am, yes i am
Am i the same girl?
Yes i am, yes i am
Oh, yes i am

Am i the same girl?
(yes i am, yes i am)
Am i the same girl?, yeah
(yes i am, yes i am)
Oh, yes i am
Am i the same girl?
(yes i am, yes i am)
Oh, baby, yes i am

(william stevenson / norman whitfield)

Well, well, i once believed

On the right track

The day you were born, yeah

Oh, you'd better regret

(dominic frontiere / norman gimbel)

From the soundtrack of "the stunt man"

Out of nowhere into sight
Out of darkness into light
You come running pushing time
Out of reason
Out of rhyme
Bits and pieces of your past
Cling like shadows to your heels
And your heart is learning fast
How it feels

With your secrets in your eyes
And your feelings in disguise
You come running in your fright
Seeking shelter from the night
And you search each passing face
For a sign someone could care
But they rush by in their race
To nowhere

And you watch and wonder where you belong
And the crowd, it moves and takes you along
And the colours splash and repaint your sky
And reality is yours to deny
And you look for someone your arms can hold
Who will let you tell what begs to be told
Then you ask yourself what good are your dreams?
In a world where nothing is what it seems

Bits and pieces of your past
Chill your soul like winter rain
But the time will come at last
When a love will ease your pain
If you let me i will try
If you let me i'll be near
If you let me when you cry
I will hear

Oh, oh and you watch and wonder where you belong
And the crowd, it moves and takes you along
And the colours splash and repaint your sky
And reality is yours to deny
And you look for someone your arms can hold
Who will let you tell what begs to be told
And you ask yourself what good are your dreams?
In a world where nothing is what it seems

And you watch and wonder where you belong
And the crowd, it moves and takes you along
And the colours splash and repaint your sky
And reality is yours to deny
And you look for someone that your arms can hold
Who will let you

(tom springfield)

The springfields

Don't stand there wailing "got no place to go"
Come on home
You look at me like that and i can't say no
Come on home

Well, i know you done me wrong
And i know i should be strong
But, i cried the whole night long
So, come on home
Come on home

Tell me baby, must you be so cruel?
Come on home
You treat me just like i'm some kind of fool
Come on home

Well, i know you let me down
I was glad when you left town
But, you're good to have around
So, come on home

Don't run away now
Come on home
You got your way now
Come on home
A-hear what i say now
Come on home
Come on home

When you smile at me well i feel so good
Come on home
I can't be mad at you like i know i should
Come on home
Well you took me for a ride
And i thought my love had died
Still i need you by my side
So come on home
Come on home
Come on home
Come on home
Come on home
Come on home

Yeah, when you smile at me well i feel so good
Come on home
I can't be mad at you a-like i know i should
Come on home
Well, you took me for a ride
And i thought my love had died
Still, i need you by my side
So, come on home
Said yes
Come on home
Sit down
Come on home
Come on home

(carole bayer-sager & peter allen)

Quiet please, there's a lady on stage
She may not be the latest rage
But she's singing and she means it
And she deserves a little silence

Quiet please, there's a woman up there
And she's been honest through her songs
Long before your consciousness was raised
Doesn't that deserve a little praise

So put your hands together and help her along
All that's left of the singer's
All that's left of the song
Stand for the ovation
And give her one last celebration

Quiet please, there's a person up there
And she's been singing of the things
That none of us could bear to hear for ourselves
Give her your respect if nothing else

Quiet please, there's a lady on stage
Conductor, turn the final page
And when it's over we can all go home
But she lives on -- on the stage alone.

(steve dorff / molly ann leikin)

It's like looking in the window of a fine boutique
Knowing there is nothing that i could ever buy
Still i want your love so much that i could die
But i just can't lead a double life
Being one man's lover, one man's wife

But you can start a fire raging
Just by touching me
Even though i know we're not supposed to touch, no
Oh, i never wanted anyone so much
How i wish that i had found you first
Don't you see my heart's about to burst?

Let me love you once before you go
Your eyes keep saying yes to me
So don't keep saying no
Let me love you once and you will see
No-one's ever gonna love you more than me

Let me lock the door
Open up all my love to you
All the love i've longed to give you since we met
It's the only chance i'm ever gonna get
And i just can't let it disappear
Sweet baby, please come over here

Let me love you once before you go
Your eyes keep saying yes to me
So don't keep saying no
Let me love you once and you will see
No-one's ever gonna love you more than me

Ahh
(let me love you once before you go)
Your eyes keep saying yes to me
So don't keep saying no, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh
(let me love you once and you will see)
No-one's ever gonna love you more than me
Ahh, ahh, ahh
(let me love you once before you go)
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
(let me love you once, ahh, ahh)
(ever gonna love)

(trevor horn)

(ooh, ooh, baby blue)

Ooh, yeah
Getting back to business, baby

Forget the things the wise men say
That's our philosophy

I've got the feeling you want me, too

Oh, oh
Gonna catch a shaft of light
Shine it in your eyes
Gonna see what's on your mind

Well you are
Such an easy evil
You're such a sensuous sin
Sometimes i don't know where i'm goin'
'til i been taken in

You're such an easy evil
Such a promise of fun
Sometimes i don't know what i'm doin'
'til i'm done, you're a sneaky one

Here he comes now touchin' me
Callin' my name
Again
Here i go now
Like a moth to a flame
I'm a puppet for you baby

Such an easy evil
You're such a sensuous sin
Sometimes i don't know where i'm goin'
'til i been taken in, yeah

Ooh, ooh, yeah, ooh, oh

Here he comes now touchin' me
Callin' my name
Again
Here i go now
Like a moth to a flame
I'm a puppet for you baby

Such an easy evil
You're such a sensuous sin
Sometimes i don't know where i'm goin'
'til i been taken in

Well, no, no, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
'til i been taken in
I been taken in
I been taken in

(richard carpenter / p. phillips oland)

There was a certain face
That filled a thousand nights
With all the sweetest dreams
And promises of paradise
But that face was gone
When the dawn would come and steal you
Yet, i still could feel you
Waiting just a kiss away
I'd surely know your face
Your love would cast a spell
I'd recognise each curve and line of you,
I knew it well
Now at last you're here and i can tell

Something in your eyes i see
Is all i ever wanted
And something in your smile for me
Is calling out my name
Your eyes, it seems
Are mirrors of my dreams
In ways i can't explain.
And my heart will never be the same

We never said a word
As if we'd always known
But through the bittersweet of waiting
We were not alone
Now we're close enough
For the touch of love to find us
Fantasies designed us
But they never really could
Begin to measure you
No pictures ever do
And as i watch you framed in sunlight
In a sky of blue
I know what my life's been leading to

Something in your eyes i see
Is all i ever wanted
And something in your smile for me
Is calling out my name
Your eyes, it seems
Are mirrors of my dreams
In ways i can't explain.
And my heart will never be the same

Something in your eyes i see
Is all i've ever wanted
And something in your smile for me
Is calling out my name
Your eyes, it seems
Are mirrors of my dreams
In ways i can't explain.
And my heart will never be the same
And my heart will never be the same

Something in your eyes

(michel legrand / harold david shaper)

The sea goes on forever
The sky goes on forever
It's all a vast unmeasured shore

If you just think about it
The waves are always sighin'
The sea birds always cryin'
Where time means nothing anymore

If i could i would take up the sea
Join hands with the sky
I'd melt with the shore
They're part of all i adore
And all the love we will share
One moment more, ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah

Ahh, the sea goes on forever
The sky goes on forever
It's something no-one can deny
If they go on forever
And they go on forever
Then why not you and i?
Like sea and sky
Sea and sky
Sea and sky

(peter allen / carole bayer-sager)

I'd rather leave while i'm in love
While i still believe the meaning of the word
I'll keep my dreams and just pretend
That you and i were never meant to end

Too many times i've seen the rose die on the vine
Somebody's heart gets broken
And usually it's mine
I don't wanna take the chance of being hurt again
And you and i can't say goodbye

So, if you wake and find me gone
Oh, babe, just carry on
You see, i need my fantasy
I still believe it's best to leave while i'm in love, ooh

Too many times i've seen the rose die on the vine
Somebody's heart gets broken, yeah
And usually it's mine
I don't wanna take the chance of being hurt again
And you and i, we can't say goodbye

So, if you wake and find me gone
Hey, babe, just carry on
You see, i need my fantasy
I still believe it's best to leave while i'm in love, oh, oh
I'd rather leave while i'm in love

(burt bacharach / hal david)

A chair is still a chair
Even though there's no-one sitting there
But a chair is not a house
And a house is not a home
When there's no-one there to hold you tight
And no-one there you can kiss goodnight

A room is still a room
Even though there's nothing there but gloom
But a room is not a house
And a house is not a home
When the two of us are far apart
And one of us has a broken heart

Now and then i call your name
And suddenly your voice appears
But it's just a crazy game
When it ends, it ends in tears

Darling, have a heart
Don't let one mistake keep us apart
I'm not meant to live alone
Turn this house into a home
When i climb the stairs
And turn the key
Oh, please be there
Still in love with me

I'm not meant to live alone
Turn this house into a home
When i climb the stairs
And turn the key
Oh, please be there
Still in love with me

(tom springfield)

The springfields

No sad songs for me
Soon our love will be
Just a memory
It's all over

I walk around imagining
The way you'll say goodbye
And when you try to tell me
I just hope that i won't cry

No sad songs for me
Soon our love will be
Just a memory
It's all over

The glow has gone forever
And our dreams have turned to dust
I don't know how i can go on
And yet i know i must

No sad songs for me
Soon our love will be
Just a memory
It's all over

It breaks my heart to feel this way
Although i try to smile
To think i'll be alone again
In just a little while

No sad songs for me
Soon our love will be
Just a memory
It's all over
It's all over
It's all over

(traditional)

I am a poor, wayfaring stranger
Wandering o'er this world of woe
And there's no sickness, toil or danger
In that bright land to which i go
I'm going home to see my father
I'm going home, no more to roam
I'm only going over jordan
I'm only going over home

I know dark clouds will gather round me
I know my way is rough and steep
But beautious fields lie just before me
Where men redeemed their vigil's keep
I'm going home to see my mother
I'm going there, no more to roam
I'm only going over jordan
I'm only going over home

(s. simoni / u. bindi)

Original italian song - later recorded with
English lyrics as "i will always want you"


Eri il ragazzo di un'altra
E non potevo parlarti
Ma tu sapessi per me
Che cos'era vederti e saperti felice

You were another girl's boyfriend
And i couldn't talk to you
But if you knew what it meant to me
To see you and know you were happy

Erl il ragazzo di un'altra
Ma ora tutto ?finito
E tu puoi fare di noi
Una cosa grandissima o due cose da niente

You were another girl's boyfriend
But now that's all over
And we can be one great thing
Or two nonentities - it's up to you

Sento che io faccio male
E lo so dovrei parlarti
Dirti che forse lei torna per?ora sei di fronte all'amore
Ora puoi pensare alla vita
E se per sempre mi vuoi
Non avere paura di me

I feel like i'm doing the wrong thing
And i know that i should talk to you
Tell you that maybe she'll come back
But now you're faced with love
Now you can think of life
And if you want me forever
Don't be afraid of me

Sento che io faccio male
E lo so dovrei parlarti
Dirti che forse lei torna per?ora sei di fronte all'amore
Ora puoi pensare alla vita
E se per sempre mi vuoi
Non avere paura di me

I feel like i'm doing the wrong thing
And i know that i should talk to you
Tell you that maybe she'll come back
But now you're faced with love
Now you can think of life
And if you want me forever
Don't be afraid of me

(ross / weiss)

Hey, mr. dream merchant
Everything depends on you
Oh, hey, mr. dream merchant
Bring him back to me
And make my dreams come true

When i said goodbye
To my love
I didn't mean to make him cry
I didn't realise that i had love
Now i need him by my side

Oh, hey, mr. dream merchant
Everything depends on you
Oh, hey, mr. dream merchant
Bring him back to me
And make my dreams come true

You should have told this fool
To stop it
You should have made this blind girl see
I got my pride back in my pocket
Won't you bring him back to me?

Oh, hey, mr. dream merchant
Everything depends on you
Oh, hey, mr. dream merchant
Can't you make him see
We need each other?
I'm no good alone
I really really, really love him
Bring him back to me
And make my dreams come true

Oh, hey, mr. dream merchant
Can't you make him see
We need each other?
I'm no good alone
I really, really love him
Bring him back to me
And make my dreams come true

(dennis lambert & brian potter)

If we fuss and we fight
Why do we have to do it every saturday night?
We can act for our friends
But why can't we face each other when the masquerade ends?
Well now, i don't know what's happening
I can't tell just who's to blame
But two forgiving people
Could be so in love again

Stop! we're breakin' up a happy home
Oh darlin'
Stop! 'cause i never was much good alone
Sweet baby
Oh, don't turn your back and walk away
Don't do it, no
Stop! we're breakin' up a happy home, yeah

It's a game no-one wins
Trying to hurt each other with those needles and pins
I can't go back, can't go on
But somehow i know the feeling isn't totally gone
Oh, there's so much love between us
That we're so afraid to show
It's been keeping us together
But for how long, i don't know

Stop! yeah, we're breakin' up a happy home
Oh darlin'
Stop! i never was much good alone
Listen baby
Ooh, don't, no, turn your back and walk away
Don't do it, oh stop
Stop! we're breakin' up a happy home, yeah

Ooh
Stop! stop! don't break it up
Stop! stop! don't break it up
Gotta be another way we can try
Stop! stop! don't break it up
Stop! stop! don't break it up
I don't wanna hear you saying goodbye
Oh baby, sweet baby, ahh, yeah baby, ooh baby

(frishberg)

You ain't my sweet lover no more
You'd better never knock on my door
No more, no more
I'm gonna hang a lock on my door
Now you ain't my sweet lover no more

You ain't my sweet lover no more
You'd better never hang 'round my door
No more, no more
I'm gonna have a gang round my door
Now you ain't my sweet lover no more

You've been spending my cash
You've been feeding me lies
You've been talking such trash
Don't you know i'm bound to get wise?

Now, you ain't my sweet lover no more
You'll never have me walking the floor
No more, no more
You'd better stay away from my door
Now, you ain't my sweet lover no more

No more, no more
You'd better never hang 'round my door
Now, you ain't my sweet lover no more

You've been spending my cash
You've been feeding me lies
You've been talking such trash
Don't you know i'm bound to get wise

You ain't my sweet lover no more
You'll never have me walking the floor
No more, no more
You'd better stay away from my door
Now, you ain't my sweet lover no more

You ain't my sweet lover no more
You ain't my sweet lover no more

(peter allen)

We'll go away
Make love all day
You'll never stay
But it's a nice dream

Just me for you
Our whole life through
It won't come true
But it's a nice dream

Such a nice dream
So, kiss me goodbye
I'm sorry that it went so fast
Our future has become our past
Too good we couldn't last
Oh, and now we see
With you and me
One's gotta let go
But it's a nice dream
Oh, baby, such a nice dream

So, kiss me goodbye
I'm sorry that it went so fast
Our future has become our past
Too good we couldn't last
Mmm, and now we see
With you and me
One's gotta let go
And let the other go free
Aah, in love we'll still be
Oh, it proves it was real
It was a real nice dream

(adtpt. t. springfield / gray)

I walk where once the grass was green
And mourn the lark that sings no more
What bird could sing whose eyes have seen
Broken blossoms on the field of war?

And as they lie there in the sun
How unimportant now it seems
Just who has lost and who has won
When with them have died so many dreams

They dreamed that endless hate would end
Unceasing fear, one day, would cease
They dreamed that foe would turn to friend
And eternal war would turn to peace

But who can say how many more
Will join these young and hopeful men?
In fields they've never seen before
Far from fields they'll never see again

(dennis lambert / brian potter)

Of all the things i've ever done
Finding you will prove to be
The most important one
I would never trade the tears
The conversation no-one hears
The learning how to walk before we run

Of all the kites i ever flew
Most came tumbling down
Except the one i sent up with you
I don't wanna change a thing
Break the spell
Cut the string
When every wish i made is coming true
With you

Sometimes i forget
To say how much i love you
Purposely i bet
'cause i'm so busy thinking of you

So, in this world of odds and ends
I'd rather have a part of you
Than all of my so-called friends
You have taught me how to feel
What is false and what is real
Of all the things i ever wanna do
I think i'll start and end with loving you

Oh, you have taught me how to feel
What is false and what is real
Of all the things i ever wanna do
I think i'll start and end with loving you

(dorff / betts)

Duet with b. j. thomas

Theme from "growing pains"

Show me that smile again
Oh, show me that smile
Don't waste another minute on your cryin'
We're nowhere near the end
We're nowhere near
The best is ready to begin

All in a cloudy daze
I look into your eyes and see them shining out
Holding you close this way
Holding you this way
Is like having summer everyday
Ooh, ooh

As long as we got each other
We got the world spinnin' right in our hands
Baby, you and me
We gotta be
The luckiest dreamers who never quit dreamin'

As long as we keep on givin'
We can take anything that comes our way
Baby, rain or shine
All the time
We got each other
Sharin' the laughter and love

Promise me here and now
Nothing but jokes
Will never come between us
You can depend on me
'cause i need you like the air i breathe
Oh, oh

As long as we got each other
We got the world spinnin' right in our hands
Baby, you and me
We gotta be
The luckiest dreamers who never quit dreamin'

As long as we keep on givin'
We can take anything that comes our way
Baby, rain or shine
All the time
We got each other
Sharin' the laughter and love

As long as we got each other
We got the world spinnin' right in our hands
Baby, you and me
We gotta be
The luckiest dreamers who never quit dreamin'

As long as we keep on givin'
We can take anything that comes our way
Oh, baby, rain or shine
All the time
We got each other
Sharin' the laughter and love

(tom snow / dean pitchford)

Nobody believes that i really care for you
They don't think my heart is true
I don't think you agree
You know i'm a lifetime guarantee
So, if they ask you what you mean to me

Don't call it love
Heavens above
We got a better thing, mmm
Don't call it love
That ain't enough
Just tell them you're my everything

Nobody believes we got something they ain't got
They've never seen a fire this hot
They never got that far
Burning as bright as any star
So, if they asked you what your feelings are

Don't call it love
Heavens above
We got a better thing
So, don't call it love
That ain't enough
Just tell them you're my everything

Feels so good
Holding tight
Through the night
Ah, but they can call it what they like
But they ain't got it right, no, no, no

So, don't call it love
Heaven's above
We got a better thing

Don't call it love
That ain't enough
Just tell them you're my everything, baby, please

Don't call it love
Heaven's above
We got a better thing, yes we do, baby

Don't call it love
Heaven's above
We got a better thing

Don't call it love
That ain't enough
Ooh, ooh
Don't call it love, ooh, ooh
Got a better thing

(mccormick)

Isn't it time all of love's bad debts got paid?
Don't be afraid
Isn't it true?
If you don't trust in yourself
You'll trust no-one else
All your favourite memories
Are not your worst enemies
Come on, give 'em a ride
You gotta decide to push them aside
Give it a try

You gotta get yourself to love
She's not the only one
You, you gotta get yourself to love
Why be the lonely one?
Get yourself to love

Take away the things you need to start again
Your heart will never mend
Take away, oh, the chance you have to slip and fall
You will miss it all

Drop your one-part harmonies
For the harder melodies
You're so aware
Of the crosses you bear
Don't be so scared
Show that you care

Oh, you, oh, you gotta get yourself to love
She's not the only one
Oh, you, yes you, you gotta get yourself to love
Why be the lonely one?

Oh, you, yeah, you gotta get yourself to love
Yes, love, you gotta love sometime
You, oh, you
Why be the sad and lonely one?
You know
You can do it, yes, you can do it, you can do it for yourself
Yes, you can, oh, don't bend
You can do it, you can do it, you can do it
You can do it for yourself

(jean-alain roussel / sting)

It's the end of our journey
What can i do?
Lonely together
When i'm alone with you

Now that we've come so far
It seems like the end
We could be lovers
We could never be friends

I don't think we could ever
I don't think we could ever be friends
I don't think we could ever
I don't think we could ever be friends
I don't think we could ever
I don't think we could ever be friends
I don't think we could ever
I don't think we could ever be friends

We can never talk
Like others seem to do
Lonely together
Making love to you

We don't get nothing
From the letters we send
We could be lovers
We could never be friends

I don't think we could ever
I don't think we could ever be friends
I don't think we could ever
I don't think we could ever be friends
I don't think we could ever
I don't think we could ever be friends

Plus a new relationship
You know you break my heart
What i feel for you's too strong
It has been from the start
Everytime i see your face
It's tearing me apart
What is need is love from you
Oh, but i can't?

I don't think we could ever
I don't think we could ever be friends
I don't think we could ever
I don't think we could ever be friends
I don't think we could ever
I don't think we could ever be friends
I don't think we could ever
I don't think we could ever be friends
I don't think we could ever
I don't think we could ever be friends
I don't think we could ever
I don't think we could ever be friends
I don't think we could ever
I don't think we could ever be friends
I don't think we could ever
I don't think we could ever be friends
I don't think we could ever
I don't think we could ever be friends
Ah, ha

(springfield / westlake / gerald)

French version of losing you


Je ne peux pas t'en vouloir
Si tu me quittes pour toujours
Je ne peux pas t'en vouloir
Si c'est la fin de notre amour
Pourtant, je ne peux pas croire
Que voil?le dernier jour
Pourtant, je ne peux pas croire
?la fin de notre amour

I won't hold it against you
If you left me forever
I won't hold it against you
If our love must end
Yet, i can't believe
That this is the end
Yet, i can't believe
It's the end of our love

Oh, je ne peux pas t'en vouloir
Tant pis pour moi si j'ai perdu
Tu ne pouvais pas savoir
Qu'un jour tu ne m'aimerais plus
Mais moi, moi je t'aime encore
Je ne vis rien que pour toi
Que vont

(n. hendryx)

Queen to your king
Don't be afraid to move away to safety
I know you well, i can tell when your heart is feelin' lonely
I've seen those knights in armour guardin' your door
Oh, but i'm gonna keep on comin' 'til you can't move no more

You can bait me, fake me, yeah
But i keep on comin' at ya
You break me, shake me, yeah
I ain't movin' backwards
Shake me, take me, yeah
I keep on goin'
'til i hold you in checkmate once more, mmm

I'm a queen to your king
Yes, i've been told that you use your pawn to hurt me
Oh, nothing's been gained
Oh, i can see that your bishop's lies then wonders
Oh, if he could stop me with the power he holds
It ties me, it ties me over with his prison, his goal

You can bait me, fake me
But i keep on comin' at ya
Just break me, shake me
I ain't movin' backwards
Shake me, take me, yeah
I keep goin' 'til i hold you in checkmate once more
Ooh, 'til i hold you in checkmate once more

Bait me, fake me, aah
But i keep comin' at ya
Break me, shake me, aah
I ain't movin', i ain't movin', i ain't movin'
Oh, but i keep comin' at ya
Take me, shake me
I ain't movin', i ain't movin' backgrounds, yeah
I ain't movin', 'cause i ain't movin' backwards, yeah, oh
I ain't movin', oh, i keep on comin' at ya
Yeah, aah, yeah, i ain't movin', yeah
Break me, shake me, yeah
I keep on comin' at ya
I ain't movin', i ain't movin' backwards
I ain't movin, i ain't movin

(alexander / mogol)

Italian language song set to the music of "everyday i have to cry"

Tanto so che poi mi passa
Tanto so che poi mi passa
E se voglio quindi posso
Posso amare chi mi va

I know it won't last
I know it won't last
And if i want to then i can
I can love who i want

Ammetto che cos?lui mi piace tanto
Forte com

(irish folk song sang by dusty on her tv show in 1967)

Where lagan stream sings lullaby
There grows a young man fair
The twilight gleam is in his eye
The night is on his hair
And like a lovesick lenan he
He hath my heart in thrall
No life i owe, no liberty
His love is lord of all

And often when the beetles' horn
Hath lulled the eve to sleep
I steal unto his shieling lorn
And thro' the dooring peep
There on the cricket's singing stone
He spears the bird in fire
And hums in sad, sweet undertone
The song of his desire

(bruce roberts / donna summer)

Well, i told you not to fall in love
I ain't the kind you can tie down
You went and did it anyway
As though i'd done you harm

Each time i went reachin' out
That's when you let go
Now don't try to pretend
That you didn't know

If you wanna love me
If you wanna hold me
Come on baby, set me free
I got to be free

If you wanna love me
If you wanna hold me
Butterflies are meant to fly
I got to be free
Sometimes like butterflies
Oh, yeah, ooh, baby, baby, ahh, yeah

Well i told ya right from the beginning
I couldn't stay for too long - that i had to go
Now, it's not because it's in my heart
Baby, i don't love you
Just because i'm meant to be
I'm meant to be free

'cause if you wanna love me
If you wanna hold me
Come on baby, set me free
I got to be free

'cause if you wanna love me
If you wanna hold me
Butterflies are meant to fly
I got to be free
Sometimes like butterflies

No, it's not because it's in my heart
Oh, i don't love you
It's only that i'm meant to be
I'm meant to be free

'cause if you wanna love me
If you wanna hold me, baby
Let me fly, fly, fly, fly
I got to be free

Oh, baby
Love me, love me, love me, baby
Let me fly, fly, fly
I got to be free

Set me free
Set me free
Set me free
Oh, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby

Oh, oh, baby
Love me, love me, love me, baby
Set me free
Oh, baby

If you wanna love me
If you wanna hold me
Come on baby, set me free
I got to be free, oh

'cause if you wanna love me
If you wanna hold me
Butterflies are meant to fly
I got to be free

'cause if you wanna love me
If you wanna hold me
Come on baby, set me free
I got to be free

(d. fletcher / d. parks)

From a mountain high to a valley low
Stronger than the strongest and even more
Running deep, as deep can go
And can even turn your darkest clouds to falling snow

That's the kinda love i got for you, yeah
That's the kinda love i got for you-hoo-oo
I can't help myself
I can't help myself
Oh, i love ya
Well, i just can't help myself

Making flowers grow on barren land, yeah
Ever growin', growin' long
Heaven only knows just how much it grows, ah

That's the kinda love i got for you-oo
That's the kinda love i got for you-hoo-oo
I can't help myself
I can't help myself

Baby, i just can't help myself, no

I'm playing with fire
I've lost control, yeah
Oh this lovely feeling
Burns to my very soul
Burning hot, as hot as i can go
Can't seem to help myself
Just got to let you know

That's the kinda love i got for you
That's the kinda love i got for you-hoo-hoo
That's the kinda love i got for you, baby
That's the kinda love i got for, yeah
Oh, come and get it, honey
Can't help myself

This love of mine
Oh, it's getting stronger
Can't help myself
Can't wait much longer, yeah
I feel it for you, yeah
Oh, that's the kinda love i got for you
That's the kinda love i got for you, yeah

(dorff / herbstritt / sklerov / lloyd)

Dreaming, i must be dreaming
Or am i really lying here with you?
Baby, you take me in your arms
And, though i'm wide awake
I know my dream is coming true

And, oh, i just fall in love again
Just one touch and then
It happens everytime
And there i go
I just fall in love again
And when i do
I can't help myself
I fall in love with you

Oh, magic, it must be magic
The way i hold you
And the night just seems to fly
Oh, it's easy for you to take me to a star
Heaven's in that moment when i look into your eyes

And, so, i just fall in love again
Just one touch and then
It happens everytime
And there i go
I just fall in love again
And when i do
I can't help myself
I fall in love with you

There i go, i just fall in love again
And when i do
I can't help myself
I fall in love with you
I can't help myself
I fall in love with you

(garaventz / kaye)

Here in this town of dirt and greed
Playground where devils play
Here where i had the bad, bad luck to be born
Here i must stay

Here i belong
Here i will die
Caught in the web of love
I can't escape
Won't even try
My fate is tied with the corrupt ones
Especially with one guy

He came around when i was down
Opened new worlds for me
Gave him my love
And dreamed of breaking my chains of misery

But i was wrong
I soon would learn
Thinking i'd leave this town
Here he found wealth
Money to burn
Not like the nowhere
Where he came from
And he would never return

Here i belong
Here i will die
Caught in the web of love
I can't escape
Won't even try
My fate is tied with the corrupt ones
Especially with one guy

Especially with one guy

(charlie skarbek / rick blaskey)

Duet with cilla black

Ooh, hoo
It was back in 'sixty-three
We were young and we were free
Thought the world was really ours for the taking
We had heart and we had soul
Ooh, we lived for rock and roll
And didn't we, didn't we, didn't we do it?

Fashions come and fashions go
We were there so we should know
I sometimes smile when i think of how i looked then
Burning candles at both ends
Hoping time would make amends
And didn't we, didn't we, didn't we do it?

With heart and soul
The world is yours, the stars are too
If you bring out the best in you
With heart and soul
Whatever you've been wantin' to do
Heart and soul will see it through, oh, ho

Now we're older nothing's changed
Just some things are rearranged
But the message is the same as when we started
We're gettin' stronger everyday
Looking back now we can say
Didn't we, didn't we, didn't we do it?, ahh

With heart and soul
The world is yours, the stars are too
If you bring out the best in you
With heart and soul
Whatever you've been wantin' to do
Heart and soul will see it through, ahh
See it through, see it through, ooh, hoo
Ooh, hoo, sing it, sing it, sing it, oh, yeah

With heart and soul
The world is yours, the stars are too
If you bring out the best in you
With heart and soul
Whatever you've been wantin' to do
Heart and soul will see it through

Oh, ho, it will see, will see, will see it through, ooh, hoo
You can see it, you can see it, see it, see it through
You can see it, you can see it

(william "smokey" robinson)

I don't like you but i love you
Seems that i'm always thinking of you
Oh, oh, you treat me badly
I love you madly
You really got a hold on me, yeah
You really got a hold on me, baby, yeah

I don't want you but i need you
I don't want to kiss you but i need to, oh, oh
You do me wrong now
My love is strong now
You really got a hold on me, oh
You really got a hold on me, baby, yeah
I love you and all i want you to do is just
Hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me

I want to leave you
Don't want to stay here
I don't want to spend
Just one more day here
Oh, oh, i want to split now
I just can't quit now
You really got a hold on me, yeah
You got a hold on me
Baby, yeah, yeah, yeah-eah-eah

I don't want to kiss you
But i need to
Oh, oh, you do me wrong now
My love is strong now
You really got a hold on me, oh
You really got a hold on me
Baby, yeah
I love you and all i want you to do is just
Hold me, hold me, hold me
You really got a hold on me, oh
You really got a hold on me, ah
You really got a hold on me, oh
You really got a hold on me
You got me
You got a hold on me
Yes you have
You got a hold on me, ah
You really got a hold on me
Hey, you got a hold on me

(bob dipiero / jim photoglo)

I never knew how good love could be
All i'd ever known was make believe
So many times i've played the fool
Baby, 'til i met you
Now everything has fallen in place
You can tell by the smile on my face
For every lonely tear that i've cried
I'm that much satisfied

We've got a fine, fine, very fine love
We've got a fine, fine, very fine love
You know it when you find one
Shining like a diamond

It's so fine, fine, very fine love
How did i ever live without your love?
It's the only thing i'm certain of
No matter what i'm going through
I know i can count on you

You are more precious to me every day
Life is better now in every way
You don't have to lay the world at my feet
You have made my world complete

We've got a fine, fine, very fine love, oh, oh
We've got a fine, fine, very fine love
You know it when you find one
Shining like a diamond
It's so fine, so fine, very fine love

I've got no apprehensions
You've got the best intentions
We've got a, we've got a, we've got a fine, fine, very fine love
We've got a fine, fine, very fine love
A very fine
A very fine love
Very fine love, ah, ha, ooh, hoo
So fine, hey, so fine
So good, so good love

Closet man
Safe under lock and key
Understand
What you're thinkin' is important
Isn't really so, you'll see
But your secret's absolutely safe with me

But your secret's absolutely safe my dear

Oh, your secret's safe with me

And, quite honestly, more fun
But your secret's absolutely safe my dear, don't worry

Oh, your secret's safe with me
Oh, your secret's safe right here with me

(sands / germinaro / wiesman)

Take your shoes off
Let your hair down
Time for you to get away
Don't you worry 'bout tomorrow
Or you're gonna miss today

When the madness gets you crazy
'til you're lookin' for a place to hide
And you're thinking
That you'll never
Get yourself some peace of mind

But, you can do it, you can do it
You can do it to your heart's delight
Oh, you can do it with your imagination
And you can do it in real life

Feel the magic of the moment
Let your spirit carry you away
Get in touch with, oh
All your feelings
You'd better find out what they have to say

Oh, you can do it, you can do it
You can do it to your heart's delight
Oh, you can do with your imagination
And you can do it in real life

Feeling free as an eagle
Flying homeward
High in the sky
You'll touch the fire of love inside you
That you're lookin' to find

But, you can do it, you can do it
You can do it to your heart's delight
Oh, you can do it with your imagination
You can do it in real life

You can do it, you can do it
You can do it to your heart's delight
You can do it with your imagination
And you can do, can do, do it, do it

You can do it, you can do it
You can do it to your heart's delight
You can do it with your imagination
And you can do it, can do it, do it, do it, yeah, yeah

(van morrison)

You can take all the tea in china
Put it in a big brown bag for me
Sail right round the seven oceans
Drop it straight into the deep blue sea

He's as sweet as tupelo honey
He's an angel of the first degree
He's as sweet as tupelo honey
Just like honey, baby, from the bee

Now you can't stop us on the road to freedom
You can't keep us 'cause our eyes can see
Men with insight, men in granite
Knights in armour bent on chivalry

He's as sweet as tupelo honey
He's an angel of the first degree
He's as sweet as tupelo honey
Just like honey, baby, from the bee

I heard a tale of old manhattan
I've never been there, but i want, wanna go
Standing waiting on my number
And my number, it's gonna show

He's as sweet as tupelo, tupelo honey
He's an angel of the first degree
He's as sweet, he's as sweet as tupelo honey
Just like honey, baby, from the bee

He's as sweet, he's as sweet as tupelo honey
He's an angel of the first degree
He's as sweet as tupelo honey
Just like honey, baby, from the bee
He's as sweet, he's as sweet

Sweet ride
Give up, you won't survive
You'll never get out alive
This world won't let you
I bet you
And if it did
What's it gonna get you?
What counts is a-how you feel inside

Girls, love's the sweet ride, mmm
Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet ride

You'd better hang loose
Don't come undone
It's better to walk than run
Each day is just something to glide on
And each night's made to slip and slide on
What counts is a-how you feel inside

Girls, love's the sweet ride
It's such a sweet, sweet ride
Yeah, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet ride
Sweet, it's such a sweet, sweet ride, yeah

Hang loose
Don't come undone
It's better to walk than run
Each day is just something to glide on
And each night's made to slip and a-slide on
What counts is a-how you feel inside

Girls, love's the sweet ride
Love's such a sweet, sweet ride
Mmm, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet , sweet, sweet ride
Sweet, such a sweet, sweet ride
Yeah, it's such a sweet, sweet ride
You'd better hang lose
You'll never survive
'cause love is such a sweet, sweet ride
Sweet, such a sweet, sweet ride
Sweet

(cy coleman / dorothy fields)

Where am i going?
And what will i find?
What's in this grab-bag
That i call my mind?

What am i doing
Alone on the shelf?
Ain't it a shame
But no-one's to blame but myself
Which way is clear

When you've lost your way
Year after year
Do i keep falling in love
For just the kick of it?
Staggering through
The thin and thick of it
Hating each old
And tired trick of it
Know what i am
I'm good and sick of it

Where am i going?
Why do i care?
Run where it's foul
Or run where it's fair
No matter where i run
I meet myself there

Looking inside me
What do i see?
Anger and hope and doubt
What am i all about?
And where am i going?
You tell me

When you've lost your way
Year after year
Do i keep falling in love
For just the kick of it?
Staggering through
The thin and thick of it
Hating each old
And tired trick of it
Know what i am
I'm good and sick of it

Where am i going?
Why do i care?
Run to the bronx
Or washington square
No matter where i run
I meet myself there

Looking inside me
What do i see?
Anger and hope and doubt
What am i all about?
And where am i going?
Where am i going?
Where?
Tell me where?

(bacharach / david / cassia)

Italian language song set to the music of "wishin' and hopin'"

Stupido, stupido perch?fai cos?tutte le volte che io dico no
Non voglio venire a bailar
Mi piace un altro che non fa
Come lo stupido, stupido, stupido cos?come te

Stupid, stupid why do you behave like that
Every time i say no?
I don't want to come and dance
I like another boy who doesn't act
Stupid, stupid, stupid like you

Bello no non ?ma l'amor

E sa parlar d'amore
Come tu non sei, no non saprai mai
Perch?tu non sei che stupido, stupido sempre di pi?quello che dici non voglio ascoltar

Tra le sue braccia sento che

Perch?mi fa tremar, tremar d

(pallavicini / amurri / f pisano)

Tu che ne sai
Delle volte che ho pianto per te
Un amore non pu?venir quando un amor ?cos?non dirmi pi?di rifarmi una vita sei tu
Questa sera mi fai morir
Mi fai morir di dolor

What do you know
About the times i've cried over you?
There can't be love when it's a love like this
Stop telling me to start a new life - it's you
