Mon Amant De La Coloniale Composer(s): Raymond Asso; Robert Juel Performer(s): Édith Piaf
Il était fort et puis si tendre Que, dès notre première nuit Je sentais que je ne pourrais plus me reprendre Et pour toujours, j'étais à lui Je voyais toutes les femmes lui sourire Moi, je me cramponnais à son bras Et je les regardais comme pour leur dire "Il est à moi, et je l'lâche pas!"
C'était un gars de la Coloniale Il avait là, partant du front Et descendant jusqu'au menton Une cicatrice en diagonale Des cheveux noirs, des yeux si pâles La peau brûlée par le soleil J'en ai plus jamais vu de pareils A mon amant de la Coloniale
Des fois, quand il avait la fièvre Il parlait trop et j'avais peur Je mettais la main sur ses lèvres Pour pas connaître le fond de son cur Car je sentais que, dans son âme Y avait des larmes et du cafard Longtemps, j'ai cru que c'était une femme Quand j'ai compris, c'était trop tard...
Lorsque j'ai connu ma rivale Alors j'ai serré fort mes bras Pour que cette grande garce de la Coloniale Lui foute la paix et ne me le vole pas Et lui, il m'avait dit: "Je reste" Mais un beau jour, il est reparti Vers ce pays que je déteste Dont il rêvait souvent la nuit
C'était un gars de la Coloniale Il portait là, partant du front Et descendant jusqu'au menton Une cicatrice en diagonale Je reverrai plus ses beaux yeux pâles Ses yeux qui n'ont pas leur pareil Il est reparti vers son soleil Mon bel amant de la Coloniale...
Love Will Keep Us Alive Composer(s): Jim Capaldi - Paul Carrack - Peter Vale Performer(s): Eagles and multiple other artists
I was standing All alone against the world outside You were searching For a place to hide Lost and lonely Now you given me the will to survive When we're hungry ... love will keep us alive
Don't you worry Sometimes you've just gotta let it ride The world is changing Right before your eyes Now I've found you There's no more emptiness inside When we're hungry ... love will keep us alive
I would die for you Climb the highest mountain Baby, there's nothing I wouldn't do
Now I've found you There's no more emptiness inside When we're hungry ... love will keep us alive
I would die for you Climb the highest mountain Baby, there's nothing I wouldn't do
I was standing All alone against the world outside You were searching For a place to hide Lost and lonely Now you given me the will to survive When we're hungry ... love will keep us alive When we're hungry ... love will keep us alive When we're hungry ... love will keep us alive
Mon Alezan Composer(s): Maurice Vallet; Julien Clerc Performer(s): Julien Clerc
Mon alezan Tout en blanc et couvert d'ailes Bien trop frêles Mon alezan Tout en blanc, cheval volant Qui s'éléve Qui s'éléve Sur les grèves Sur les grèves Comme un rêve Sur tes lèvres...
Mon alezan Mon alezan Cheval volant Evadé Du sable blanc D'un été Dès demain T'emportera Jusqu'à l'orient
Mon alezan Tout en blanc et bien plus fier Qu'Artaban Mon alezan Tout en blanc, a vraiment l'air Plus sauvage, plus sauvage Qu'un nuage Qu'un nuage Dans l'azur Pas trés pur
Mon alezan Mon alezan Cheval volant Evadé Du sable blanc D'un été Dès demain T'emportera Jusqu'à l'orient
Mon alezan Tout en blanc, est aussi calme Que ton âme Mon alezan Tout en blanc a le cur bien Plus fragile Plus fragile Qu'un sourire Qu'un sourire Accroché Dans tes cils
Mon alezan Mon alezan Cheval volant Evadé Du sable blanc D'un été Dès demain T'emportera Jusqu'à l'orient
Geometriquement Tien Composer(s): Léo Ferré Performer(s): Léo Ferré
Ton corps est comme un vase clos J'y pressens parfois une jarre Comme engloutie au fond des eaux Et qui attend des nageurs rares Tes bijoux ton blé ton vouloir Le plan de tes folles prairies Mon squale qui viendra te voir Du fond de moi si tu l'en pries
Un herbe douce comme un lit Un lit de taffetas de carne Une source dans le midi Quand l'ombre glisse et me décharne Un sentiment de rémission Devant ta violette de Parme Me voilà soumis comme un pion Sur l'échiquier que ta main charme
Mon organe qui fait ta voix Mon pardessus sur ta bronchite Mon alphabet pour que tu croies Que je suis là quand je te quitte Ma symphonie dans ton jardin La mer dans ta rivière close L'aigre parfum de mon destin Sur le delta d'où fuit ta rose
L'odeur canaille de ta peau Tendue comme un arc vers sa cible Quand pointe de mes oripeaux Le point de mire inaccessible Du feu pour le bel incendie Que j'allumerai à ta forge Cette nuit puisque tu me dis Que ça te remonte à la gorge
Et moi qui ne suis pas régent De tes propriétés câlines J'irai comme l'apôtre Jean Dormir un peu sur ta poitrine J'y verrai des oiseaux de nuit Et leurs géométriques ailes Ne pourront dessiner l'ennui Dont se meurent les parallèles
Love Will Find A Way Composer(s): Sam Cooke Performer(s): Sam Cooke
(If love wants to travel to your heart, love will find a way)
I tell you, no, no mountain is too high and no peak too high to climb And no, no place is too remote for true love to find I know no, no river is too wide, no matter what people say Lord, if love wants to travel to your heart, love will find a way
Oh the mountains, oh the valleys, oh the streams love would climb Seekin' a place in your heart If there are two people love wants to combine Nothin' can keep them apart
I know that no, no river is too wide, no matter what people say If love wants to travel to your heart, love will find a way I know that if love wants to travel to your heart, love will find a way
Non Charlie Ne me fais plus attendre encore Viens vite à la maison Aujourd'hui Je crois que c'est toi le plus fort Pour les réparations Je t'en supplie...
Mon aéroplane... Depuis ton départ est en panne... Et pour toucher le ciel je n'ai plus, je n'ai plus Que des nuages artificiels Mon aéroplane... Depuis ton départ est en panne... Et pour toucher le ciel j'ai besoin, j'ai besoin Que tu me prêtes tes ailes
Il y aura Du thé de Chine et du réglisse Et puis du chocolat Tu verras Nous irons plus au quai jadis Mais viens vite chez moi Je t'en supplie...
Mon aéroplane... Depuis ton départ est en panne... Et pour toucher le ciel je n'ai plus, je n'ai plus Que des nuages artificiels Mon aéroplane... Depuis ton départ est en panne... Et pour toucher le ciel j'ai besoin, j'ai besoin Que tu me prêtes tes ailes Mon aéroplane... Depuis ton départ est en panne... Et pour toucher le ciel j'ai besoin, j'ai besoin Que tu me prêtes tes ailes
Genuine Imitation Life Performer(s): Harry Belafonte; Chad Mitchell
Chameleon changing colors-while a crocodile cries People rubbing elbows but never touching eyes Talking off their marks, revealing still another guise Genuine imitation life
People buying happiness and manufactured fun Everybody doing what everybodys done People count on people who can only count to one Genuine imitation life
All the pretty clouds are a lovely shade of black You find the night direction, someone tears up all the track People worship crosses, fingers cross behind their back Genuine imitation life Genuine imitation life
Old friends get together but its solitaire they play Everybodys rainbow done in different shades of gray Its a lovely place to visit but I wouldnt want to stay In a genuine imitation life Genuine imitation life Genuine imitation life
Love Will Find A Way Composer(s): David Jenkins - Cory Lerios Performer(s): Pablo Cruise
Someone, someone's got me wrong You thought that your love was strong Now you're feelin' like such a fool Poor you, you're thinkin' maybe if you said goodbye You'll understand the reason why The love you had felt so cool um hm
Oh but it's all right Once you get past the pain You'll learn to find your love again So keep your heart open 'Cause love will find a way
Sometimes we all feel a need to change Our love we have to rearrange And move on to something new yes you do Your dreams feel like they're fallin' apart You need to find a brand new start But you're almost afraid to be true to yourself
Oh, but it's all right Once you get past the pain You'll learn to find your love again So keep your heart open 'Cause love will find a way
Love will find a way Love will find a way
So now don't, don't be afraid of yourself Just move on to something else And let your love shine thru Again yes 'cause it's all right Once you get past the pain You'll learn to find your love again So keep your heart open 'Cause love will find a way
Mammy's And Daddy's Little Girl Composer(s): Lester Flatt Performer(s): Flatt & Scruggs
She's just her Mammy and Daddy's little girl
Some have their treasures of diamonds and gold Others have fortunes that's never been told She is our pleasure, that means all the world She's just her Mammy and Daddy's little girl
She's just an angel sent down from above Sent there for Mammy and Daddy to love She is our pleasure, that means all the world She's just her Mammy and Daddy's little girl
She's just an angel sent down from above Sent there for Mammy and Daddy to love She is our pleasure, that means all the world She's just her Mammy and Daddy's little girl
Gentleman Cambrioleur Performer(s): Jacques Dutronc
C'est le plus grand des voleurs Oui, mais c'est un gentleman Il s'empar' de vos valeurs Sans vous menacer d'une arm' Quand il détrouss' une femm' Il lui fait porter des fleurs Gentleman cambrioleur Est un grand seigneur Il viens chez vous la nuit Sans déranger votre sommeil Il décroche sans bruit Le tableau acheté la veill' Puis avant de partir Après ses coupables travaux Il laisse un mot sur le piano
C'est le plus grand des voleurs Oui, mais c'est un gentleman Et chaque femme à son heure Rêve de voir son visag' De l'actrice à la danceuse Et l'épouse la meilleur' Gentleman cambrioleur A gagné le cur
Love Will Conquer All Composer(s): Cynthia Weil - Greg Phillinganes - Lionel Richie Performer(s): Lionel Richie and multiple other artists
Here we are Out here me and you Reaching out each other Is all that we can do
Here we stand Trying not to fall There's no need to worry Love will conquer all
Do you really want to know Just how long love will last Will all of the bad times pass How can we make things right
Ooh and why Why is the world so unkind, We surely can find peace of mind If we only see the light, can't we that
Here we are Out here me and you Reaching out each other Is all that we can do
Ooh here we stand Trying not to fall There's no need to worry Love will conquer all
Can somebody tell me why Why do our dreams go wrong Why can't we all belong Ooh, where do we start Oh and tell me when When will we ever learn There's nowhere else we can turn The truth is in our hearts, here we are together Sometimes the road gets hard to travel Sometimes the pains too much to bear Sometimes when life seems to unravel That's the time oh - to say We're gonna make it anyway Can't we see that
Here we are Out here me and you Reaching out each other Is all that we can do
Here we stand Trying not to fall There's no need to worry Love will conquer all ...
Gentle On My Mind Composer(s): John Hartford Performer(s): Glen Campbell; and various other artists
It's knowin' that your door is always open And your path is free to walk That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag Rolled up and stashed behind your couch And it's knowing I'm not shackled by forgotten words and bonds And the ink stains that have dried upon some line That keeps you in the backroads by the rivers of my memory That keeps you ever gentle on my mind
It's not clinging to the rocks and ivy planted On their columns now that binds me Or something that somebody said because they thought We fit together walkin' It's just knowing that the world will not be cursing or forgiving When I walk along some railroad track and find That you're moving on the backroads by the rivers of my memory And for hours you're just gentle on my mind
Though the wheat fields and the clothes lines And the junkyards and the highways come between us And some other woman crying to her mother 'Cause she turned and I was gone I still might run in silence, tears of joy might stain my face And a summer sun might burn me till I'm blind But not to where I cannot see you walkin' on the backroads By the rivers flowing gentle on my mind
I dip my cup of soup, back from the gurgling cracklin' cauldron In some train yard My beard a roughning coal pile and a dirty hat Pulled low across my face Through cupped hands 'round a tin can I pretend I hold you to my breast and find That you're waving from the backroads by the rivers of my memory Ever smilin' ever gentle on my mind
Love Was Right Here All The Time Composer(s): Bill Henson - Charles Snoody Performer(s): Ernest Tubb & Loretta Lynn
I overlooked a love I couldn't see Until that day you walked away from me That's what it took for this poor fool to find That your sweet love was right here all the time
When we broke up I started searchin' too For our love hid from me as well as you How could I be so foolish and so blind When your true love was right here all the time
Right here was love when neither one expected it to be Right here was love before our eyes that neither one could see We'll let the world go by dear we won't mind For our true love was right here all the time
Ah play it pretty Leon
Right here was love when neither one expected it to be Right here was love before our eyes that neither one could see We'll let the world go by dear we won't mind For our true love was right here all the time
Moments Like This Composer(s): Burton Lane; Frank Loesser Performer(s): Dean Martin and various other artists
Moments like this make me thrill through and through Careless moments like this close to you Nonchalantly we'd dine and we'd dance Yet my heart seems to melt in your grace
Sweet moments like this with the soft lights aglow Make me long for your kiss though I know I'd be just one of all your affairs But at moments like this, who cares
I'd be just one of all your affairs But at moments like this, who cares
Gente Sin Swing Composer(s): Fito Paez Performer(s): Fito Paez
Gente sin swing como canciones Gente sin Swing Lejos del borde Como un radar (ciego, sordo, mudo) Sin direcciones Cómo serán sus corazones
Gente sin Swing Como ratones Gente sin swing Mundo sin soles Son un poder, como naciones Siempre estarán hasta que exploten Y aunque te inviten a su mesa No estarán de tu lado
Gente sin swing Prometedores Gente sin swing son como halcones Pueden fingir hasta que llores Pero mi amor, son impostores Y aunque te inviten su mesa, no estarán de tu lado Y aunque lo juren y prometan, no estarán de tu lado
Love Walks In Composer(s): Edward Van Halen - Sammy Hagar - Michael Anthony - Alex Van Halen Performer(s): Van Halen
Contact is all that it takes To change your life, to lose your place in time Contact Asleep or awake Coming around you may wake up to find
(Ooo-ooo-ooo) Questions deep within your eyes (Ooo-ooo-ooo) Now more than ever, you realize (Ooo-ooo)
And then you sense a change Nothin' feels the same All your dreams are strange Love comes walkin' in Some kind of alien Waits for the opening Simply pulls a string
Another world, some other time You lay your sanity on the line Familiar faces, familiar sights Reach back, remember with all your might
(Ooo-ooo-ooo) Ooh, and there she stands in a silken gown (Ooo-ooo-ooo) Silver lights shinin' down (Ooo-ooo)
And then you sense a change Nothin' feels the same All your dreams are strange Love comes walkin' in Some kind of alien Waits for the opening Simply pulls a string Love comes walkin' in Oh, sleep and dream; that's all I crave I travel far across the milky way To my master I become a slave 'Til we meet again some other day
(Ooo-ooo-ooo) Where silence speaks as loud as war (Ooo-ooo-ooo) Earth returns to what it was before (Ooo-ooo)
And then you sense a change Nothin' feels the same All your dreams are strange Love comes walkin' in Some kind of alien Waits for the opening Simply pulls a string Love comes walkin' in
Love comes walkin' in Baby, pull the string Love comes walkin' in Love comes walkin' in, yea
