    Memphis Est Loin D'ici
    English Title: Memphis Tennessee
    Composer(s): Chuck Berry
    Composer(s): Johnny Hallyday
    (Originally performed by: Chuck Berry)



    Allo l'international
    Je vous en prie aidez-moi
    Son message me fait mal
    Ici je n'ai que sa voix

    J'ai même pas son numéro
    Elle m'a juste dit qu'elle s'ennuie
    Qu'elle ne se fait pas d'amis
    À Memphis Tennessee

    Aidez-moi j'vous en prie
    J'ai que son prénom Mary
    Elle chante le blues la country
    Le soir dans un club de Beale Street

    Elle m'a dit j'suis à l'hôtel
    J'm'étais assoupie
    D'ici j'ai vue sur le ciel
    Et le Mississipi

    Y-a-t-il un moyen
    De savoir d'où vient l'appel
    Là-bas c'est le matin
    J'veux la voir au réveil

    Je vous raconte mon histoire
    Ça chasse les idées noires
    C'est vraiment trop loin d'ici
    Ce Memphis Tennessee

    Le jour où j'suis parti
    Elle m'a dit reviens moi
    Non j'irais jamais à Paris
    Car ma vie c'est ici

    Essayez d' la trouver
    Je veux lui parler
    Lui dire c'est idiot la vie
    Memphis est loin d'ici

    Allo l'international
    Je vous en prie aidez-moi
    Son message me fait mal
    Ici je n'ai que sa voix

    One Hit (To The Body)
    Composer(s): Mick Jagger; Keith Richards; Ron Wood
    Performer(s): The Rolling Stones



    You fell out of the clear blue sky
    To the darkness below
    The smell of your flesh excites me
    My blood starts to flow
    So help me God

    You burst in in a blaze of light
    You unzippered the dark
    One kiss took my breath away
    One look lights up the stars
    And it's it's one hit to the body
    It comes straight from the heart
    One hit to the body
    Sure went straight to the mark
    So help me God

    It's one shot when you love me
    One shot when you leave me
    I don't need no security
    I just need some peace
    And it's one hit to the body
    It comes straight from the heart
    One voice calls out my name
    It sure went straight to the mark

    One punch and you knocked me down
    Tore my defenses apart
    One round took me out of the game
    You did me some permanent harm
    It took just one hit
    It took just one hit
    It ain't enough for me
    It ain't enough for me
    It ain't enough for me
    It's hurting me baby

    Oh your love is a sweet addiction
    I can't clean you out of my veins
    It's a life long addiction
    That has damaged my brain
    It took just one hit to the body
    To tear my defenses apart
    One hit to the body
    Sure went straight to the mark
    One hit to the body
    And it comes straight from the heart
    One hit to the body
    To the body, to the body
    Come straight from the heart

    One hit to the body
    And it comes straight from the heart

    One hit to the body
    And it comes straight from the heart
    That's all it took, that's all it took
    So help me so help me so help me God
    So help me so help me so help me God

    One hit to the body
    And it comes straight from the heart
    One hit to the body
    And it comes straight from the heart

    Performer(s): Randy Crawford;
    Gladys And The Boxers; Pops Fernandez



    If you're not afraid
    Of what love brings
    Then endings are beginnings
    Are beautiful things
    Its a chance you'll take
    It's a chance you'll win
    If someone gonna find you
    First you gotta let them in

    Coz love begins with one hello
    The hardest part is over
    Now its easy letting go
    One hello is how it starts
    You might really love or lose your heart

    If you're not afraid
    Of what you feel
    Then try and keep it simple
    Or try and keep it real
    And if being real means
    You'll some day say goodbye
    Remember my friend
    Goodbyes not the end
    Its a circle you'll learn
    And it starts with one hello

    Love begins with one hello
    The hardest part is over
    Now it's easy letting go
    One hello is how it starts
    Remember my friend

    Composer(s): Andrew Lloyd Webber; Trevor Nunn
    Performer(s): Ann De Winne
    (Originally performed by: Elaine Paige)



    Maanlicht, wend je blik naar het maanlicht
    Volg de stem van je dromen
    Wees bereid, laat je gaan
    Vind je eenmaal de zin van wat geluk ook weer is
    Een nieuw leven breekt dan aan

    Maanlicht, heel alleen in het maanlicht
    Droom ik hoe het voorbij vloog
    Oh, hoe mooi was ik toen
    Nooit vergeet ik de tijd dat ik geluk nog begreep
    Ach, die tijd weer overdoen

    As en walm van avondrook
    De ochtendnevel huivert
    Er dooft een lamp
    Alweer een nacht ten einde
    Alweer een nieuwe morgen

    Daglicht, op de zon moet ik wachten
    Aan een nieuw leven denken
    Ik moet sterk zijn, vol kracht
    Als het licht wordt zal deze nacht herinnering zijn
    En begint een nieuwe dag

    As en walm van avondrook
    De ochtendnevel huivert
    Er dooft een lamp
    Alweer een nacht ten einde
    Alweer een nieuwe morgen

    Streel me
    Laat me niet meer alleen zijn
    Met wat ik me herinner van mijn tijd in de zon
    Raak me aan en dan weet je wat geluk ook weer is
    Kijk, een nieuwe dag begon

    and various other artists



    One has my name, the other has my heart
    With one I'll remain, that's how my heartaches start
    One has brown eyes, the other's eyes are blue
    To one I am tied, to the other I am true

    One has my love, the other only me
    But what good is love to a heart that can't be free
    So I'll go on livin' my life just the same
    While one has my heart, the other has my name

    One has my name, the other has my heart
    With one I'll remain, that's how my heartaches start
    One has brown eyes, the other's eyes are blue
    To one I am tied, to the other I am true

    One has my love, the other only me
    But what good is love to a heart that can't be free
    If I could live over, my life I would change
    The one who has my heart would also have my name

    Composer(s): T.S. Eliot; Andrew Lloyd Webber; Trevor Nunn
    Originally performed by: Elaine Paige
    Covered by various other artists



    Midnight
    Not a sound from the pavement
    Has the moon lost her memory?
    She is smiling alone
    In the lamplight the withered leaves collect at my feet
    and the wind begins to moan

    Memory
    All alone in the moonlight
    I can smile at the old days
    I was beautiful then
    I remember the time I knew what happiness was
    Let the memory live again
    Every street lamp seems to beat a fatalistic warning
    Someone mutters and a street lamp gutters and soon it will be morning

    Daylight
    I must wait for the sunrise
    I must think of a new life and I mustn't give in
    When the dawn comes tonight will be a memory too and a new day will begin
    Burnt out ends of smoky days
    the stale, cold smell of morning
    The street lamp dies, another night is over
    another day is dawning

    Touch me
    It's so easy to leave me
    all alone with a memory of my days in the sun
    If you touch me I'll understand what happiness is
    Look, a new day has begun

    Now it begins, now we start
    One hand, one heart
    Even death won't part us now

    With this heart I will sing to you
    Long as the stars have lost their glow
    And with these hands I'll provide for you
    Should there be a stormy sea
    I'll turn the tide for you

    With one hand, one heart
    One hand and one heart
    Now it begins, now we start
    One hand, one heart
    Even death won't part, part us now

    Waking skies at sunrise, evry sunset too
    Seems to be bringing me memories of you
    Here and there, ev'rywhere, scenes that we once knew
    And they all just recall memories of you

    How I wish I could forget those happy yesteryears
    That have left a rosary of tears

    Your face beams in my dreams, in spite of all I do
    And ev'rything seems to bring memories of you

    Memories In Gold
    Composer(s): Ken Barnes; Pete Moore
    Performer(s): Frankie Laine



    Those melodies that reach across the years
    Have underscored our laughter and our tears
    With every phrase we see the past unfold
    Like memories in gold

    Some tunes remind us of our childhood days
    The Sunday afternoons and songs of praise
    Reflecting happy times and joys untold
    These memories in gold

    From those early nurs'ry rhymes to our adolescent times
    We'd find more favourites as we went along
    How could we go wrong with a special song
    That would always see us through

    Our lives without them might be cold and bleak
    A favourite song says more than words can speak
    They helped me win your love to have and hold
    Sweet Memories in gold

    (When the band played rock and roll)
    (And the people called it soul)
    (Our favourite songs were like a tapestry)
    Etched in melody, they will always be
    Part of you and part of me

    There's little more to add when songs are sung
    The words and music help keep us young
    And so we're not afraid of growing old
    With memories, let's hear them please
    Sweet memories in gold

    One Good Love
    Composer(s): Neil Diamond; Gary Nicholson
    Performer(s): Neil Diamond



    It took a while for me to know
    What I was looking for
    And ev'ry heart I've ever known
    Just left me wanting more

    One good love can turn it all around
    Take hold of a restless heart
    And lead it back to solid ground
    You can search the world for happiness
    And never get enough
    When all you really need to find
    Is one good love

    I followed all life's pleasures
    Wherever they would lead
    But someone I can treasure
    Is all I really need

    One good love can turn it all around
    Take hold of a restless heart
    And lead it back to solid ground
    One good love can take you to the light
    With just one touch you can forget
    A thousand empty nights
    You can search the world for happiness
    And never get enough
    When all you really need to find
    Is one good love

    I went to the window
    To look for some memories we had
    But it seemed that the window
    Had lost all its meaning
    That's sad

    I gazed thru the window
    But things didn't look like before
    For the things I used to see
    I know I'll see them no more

    Some things may seem
    So unimportant and small
    But to the one's who love them most
    Like the trees they are tall
    For it was there that i first saw
    The things I most wanted in life
    And to see them again would
    Now woman if you want me
    Then I'll want you
    I'll want you

    Woman if you'll have me
    Then I'll have you
    I'll have you

    I went to the window
    To look for some memories we had
    But it seemed that the window
    Had lost all its meaning
    That's sad

    I always thought you were the best
    I guess I always will
    I always felt that we were blessed
    And I feel that way, still
    Sometimes we took the hard road
    But we always saw it through
    If I had only one friend left
    I'd want it to be you

    Sometimes the world was on our side
    Sometimes it wasn't fair
    Sometimes it gave a helping hand
    Sometimes we didn't care
    'Cause when we were together
    It made the dream come true
    If I had only one friend left
    I'd want it to be you

    Someone who understands me
    And knows me inside out
    And helps keep me together
    And believes without a doubt
    That I could move a mountain
    Someone to tell it to
    If I had only one friend left
    I'd want it to be you

    'Cause when we were together
    It made the dream come true
    If I had only one friend left

    Zo mooi, mooi was die tijd
    Zo mooi, mooi was die tijd

    'k Zit te dromen op een strand
    Ver, zo ver mijn vaderland
    Geen kus, geen groet
    Geen hart, geen moed
    De zee die is zo wijd, zo wijd
    'k Wil bij mijn vrienden zijn
    En proeven van de wijn
    Rozen die bloeien in de tuin
    Het gras is altijd groen
    Waar is die eerste zoen
    Elk beeld vervaagt met de tijd

    Harde jaren, weinig loon
    Alles wordt zo heel gewoon
    Geen kus, geen groet
    Geen hart, geen moed
    De zee die is zo wijd, zo wijd
    'k Wil bij mijn vrienden zijn
    En proeven van de wijn
    Rozen die bloeien in de tuin
    Het gras is altijd groen
    Waar is die eerste zoen

    Aan de hemel staat een ster
    En die wenkt van ver, heel ver
    'k Verwijt met spijt
    De pijn, de tijd
    De zee die is zo wijd, zo wijd
    'k Wil bij mijn vrienden zijn
    En proeven van de wijn
    Rozen die bloeien in de tuin
    Het gras is altijd groen
    Waar is die eerste zoen
    Elk beeld vervaagt met de tijd...

    Or there will never be a single drop of love
    you won't have no freedom now, yeah!

    Got to come together
    We are birds of a feather
    We got to come together
    'Cause we are birds of a feather
    Got to come together
    'Cause we are birds of a feather
    Or there will never be (Lord, have mercy!) no love at all
    There will never be - yeah, yeah! - no love at all

    We also got to realize we are one people, yeah!
    Got to realize that we are one people, yeah!
    We got to realize we are one people,
    Or there will never be no love at all
    There will never, never, never be no love at all

    Got to build our love on one foundation
    Got to build our love on one foundation
    Got to build our love on one foundation
    Got to build our love on one foundation
    Got to build our love on one foundation ...

    (sweet, sweet memories you gave-a me
    you can't beat the memories you gave-a me)

    Take one fresh and tender kiss
    Add one stolen night of bliss
    One girl, one boy
    Some grief, some joy
    Memories are made of this

    Don't forget a small moonbeam
    Fold in lightly with a dream
    Your lips and mine
    Two sips of wine
    Memories are made of this

    Then add the wedding bells
    One house where lovers dwell
    Three little kids for the flavour
    Stir carefully through the days
    See how the flavour stays
    These are the dreams you'll savour

    With His blessings from above
    Serve it generously with love
    One man, one wife
    One love through life
    Memories are made of this
    Memories are made of this

    One For The Money
    Composer(s): Travis Edmonson
    Performer(s): The Hootenanny Singers & The Highway Men



    One for the money
    Two for the show
    Three to get ready
    And four to go

    I have travelled all over this land
    And one sad thing I do find
    When the wide road calls
    You must leave friends and all
    Leaving a song behind
    For a while
    Leaving a song behind

    One for the money -- sing for a penny
    Two for the show -- any song that I know
    Three to get ready -- wide road is pretty
    And four to go
    And four to go

    Some value money
    And some value fame
    Some value women and wine
    But a song and a friend
    'Round each turn of the bend
    Are riches I'd rather were mine
    Anytime
    Riches I'd rather were mine

    One for the money
    Two for the show
    Three to get ready
    And four to go

    Now I am gone
    May my wish linger on
    Its echo fall soft on your ear
    May your riches increase
    May you all live in peace
    And happiness grow every year
    My friend
    Happiness grows every year

    One for the money -- sing for a penny
    Two for the show -- any song that I know
    Three to get ready -- wide road is pretty
    And four to go
    It's been good to know you
    And four to go
    A long, long way to go

    Memories
    Danish Title: Minder
    Composer(s): Leonard Cohen; Phil Spector
    Originally performed by: Leonard Cohen



    Frankie Laine, he was singing Jezebel
    I pinned an Iron Cross to my lapel
    I walked up to the tallest and the blondest girl
    I said, Look, you don't know me now but very soon you will
    So won't you let me see
    I said "won't you let me see"
    I said "won't you let me see
    Your naked body?"

    Just dance me to the dark side of the gym
    Chances are I'll let you do most anything
    I know you're hungry, I can hear it in your voice
    And there are many parts of me to touch, you have your choice
    Ah but no you cannot see
    She said "no you cannot see"
    She said "no you cannot see
    My naked body"

    So We're dancing close, the band is playing Stardust
    Balloons and paper streamers floating down on us
    She says, You've got a minute left to fall in love
    In solemn moments such as this I have put my trust
    And all my faith to see
    I said all my faith to see
    I said all my faith to see
    Her naked body

    One For Sorrow
    Performer(s): Dorothy Squires



    One for sorrow, two for joy
    Three for a letter and four for a boy
    Five for silver, six for gold
    Seven for a secret that’s never been told

    Do you remember, as a child, looking up into the sky
    Counting blackbirds on the wing and the song we used to sing?

    One for sorrow, two for joy
    Three for a letter and four for a boy
    Five for silver, six for gold
    Seven for a secret that’s never been told

    On the day you left me, came blackbird number one
    Bringing me the sorrow and took away the sun
    I searched the sky, that lonely sky
    For two or three or four
    For joy a letter would bring to me
    From the boy who I adore

    One for sorrow, two for joy
    Three for a letter and four for a boy

    You left me over things I said
    You know my love is true
    And five would turn my darkest clouds
    Into a silver dew

    Today I saw six blackbirds
    Flying on their way
    A lonely blackbird joined them
    And they seemed to say

    Five for silver, six for gold
    Seven for a secret that’s never been told

    You’re coming back to me my love
    With a band of gold
    And then I’ll share a secret
    A secret I’ve never told

    One for sorrow, two for joy
    Three for a letter and four for a boy
    Five for silver, six for gold
    Seven for a secret that’s never been told
