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
One Hello Composer(s): Marvin Hamlish; Carole Bayer Sager 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 Goodbyes not the end Its a circle you know And it starts with one hello It starts with one hello
Maanlicht English & French Titles: Memory; Nos Souvenirs 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
One Has My Name (The Other Has My Heart) Composer(s): Eddie Dean; Dearest Dean; Hal Blair Performer(s): Eddie Dean; 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
Memory Dutch & French Titles: Maanlicht; Nos Souvenirs 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
One Hand, One Heart Composer(s): Leonard Bernstein; Stephen Sondheim Performer(s): Dionne Warwick; and various other artists
Make of our hands one hand Make of our hearts one hart Make of our bows one last bow Only death will part us now
Make all our lives one life Day after day, one life 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
Memories Of You Composer(s): Andy Razaf; Eubie Blake Performer(s): Rosemary Clooney
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
One Good Reason Composer(s): Gary Moore Performer(s): Gary Moore
Take me out of here This place is gettin' much to small Make me disappear vanish through the nearest wall
Give me one good reason why I should stay Give me one good reason to go on this way Give me one good reason why I should stay with you with you
Take me out of here This place is closing in on me Make it disappear somewhere else I wanna be
Give me one good reason why I should stay Give me one good reason to go on this way Give me one good reason why I should stay with you with you How, yeah
Give me one good reason why I should stay Give me one good reason to go on this way Give me one good reason why I should stay with you with you, with 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
Memories At The Window Composer(s): Black Oak Arkansas Performer(s): Black Oak Arkansas
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 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
One Friend Composer(s): Dan Seals Performer(s): Dan Seals
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 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

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...

(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, two for joy Three for a letter and four for a boy Five for silver, six for gold Seven for a secret thats 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 thats 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 thats never been told
Youre coming back to me my love With a band of gold And then Ill share a secret A secret Ive 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 thats never been told
