    Tell Her No
    ((French Version: Dis-Lui Non (Frank Alamo) - 1965))
    Composer(s): Rod Argent
    First release by: The Zombies - 1965
    Covered by multiple other artists



    And if she should tell you come closer
    And if she tempts you with her charms

    You tell her
    No no no no no no no no no no no no
    No no no no no no no no no
    Don't hurt me now for her love belongs to me
    Don't hurt me now for her love belongs to me

    And if she should tell you she love you wo oh wo oh
    And if she tempts you with her charms

    I know she's the kind of girl to throw my love away
    But I still love her so don't hurt me now don't hurt me now

    And if she tells you she love you
    Just remember she's saying that to me

    You tell her
    No no no no no no no no no no no no
    No no no no no no no no no
    Don't hurt me now for her love belongs to me
    Don't hurt me now for her love belongs to me

    My Heart Has A Mind Of Its Own
    Composer(s): Howard Greenfield; Jack Keller
    Performer(s): Connie Francis
    and various other artists



    I told this heart of mine our love could never be
    But then I hear your voice and somethin' stirs inside of me
    Somehow I can't resist the memory of your kiss
    Guess my heart has a mind of its own

    No matter what I do, no matter what I say
    No matter how I try I just can't turn the other way
    When I'm with someone new I always think of you
    Guess my heart has a mind of its own

    You're not in love with me so why can't I forget
    I'm just your "used-to-be", it's wrong, and yet

    I know forgetting you would be a hopeless thing
    For I'm a puppet and I just can't seem to break the string
    I say "I'll let you go" but then my heart says "no"
    Guess my heart has a mind of its own

    Guess my heart has a mind of its own

    Good-Bye, Little Girl Of My Dreams
    Composer(s): Richard Howard; Fred Phillips



    I wonder and wonder, if there'll come a day
    when the girl of my dreams will exist
    I wonder and wonder and hope that there may
    For only in dreams we kissed
    I see her fair face every night in my dreams
    it's as sweet as the roses that bloom
    But soon it is morn and then she is gone
    So I say as she fades with the moon

    There's millions of girls in this beautiful world
    there's a girl for each boy so they say
    So I'll wait thro' the years 'till my dream girl appears
    For I know I shall meet her some day
    How happy I'd be at the break of the dawn
    Just to find her at rest in my arms
    Never more have to sigh
    Never more say goodbye
    To the girl of those wonderful charms

    Goodbye little girl of my dreams
    Goodbye little girl of my dreams
    I'd like to feel
    That you are real
    For you are mine it seems
    Lovelight in your eyes brightly gleams
    You say just for me that it beams
    So I'll love only thee
    Tho' in dreams it may be
    Goodbye little girl of my dreams

    Mijn hart huilt om jou
    Huilt om jou, huilt om jou
    Mijn hart vraagt om jou
    Vraagt alleen om jou

    Liefde is een wonder voor iedereen
    Liefde is een wonder voor jou alleen
    Het maakt je soms verdrietig
    Het maakt je blij
    Het komt en het gaat weer voorbij

    Mijn hart huilt om jou
    Huilt om jou, huilt om jou
    Mijn hart vraagt om jou
    Vraagt alleen om jou

    Eens zul jij het vinden
    Heel diep in je hart
    Het maakt je wat onzeker
    Het maakt je verward
    Dan ben je weer verloren
    Voor lange tijd
    Liefde kent vreugde en spijt

    Mijn hart huilt om jou
    Huilt om jou, huilt om jou
    Mijn hart vraagt om jou
    Vraagt alleen om jou

    Mijn hart huilt om jou
    Huilt om jou, huilt om jou
    Mijn hart vraagt om jou
    Vraagt alleen om jou

    Composer(s): Cole Porter
    Performer(s): Barbara Lea;
    and various other artists



    You made my romance sublime
    Now it’s time to fly
    For the stars have fled from the heavens
    The moon’s deserted the hill
    And the sultry breeze that sang in the trees
    Is suddenly strangely still

    It’s done, little dream, it’s done
    So bid me a fond farewell
    We’ve both had our fun
    Was it Romeo or Juliet
    Who said, when about to die?
    Love is not all peaches and cream
    Little dream, goodbye

    Was it Romeo or Juliet
    Who said, when about to die?
    Love is not all peaches and cream
    Little dream, goodbye

    Goodbye

    Il ne faut pas pleurer, je pars
    mais je reviendrai
    il ne faut pas pleurer, goodbye
    bye, je reviendrai

    je songe, songe à la douceur
    d'aller en chevaux-vapeur
    d'aller au bout de la terre
    d'aller bien plus vite que la lumière
    {x2}

    Il ne faut pas pleurer, je pars
    mais je reviendrai
    il ne faut pas pleurer, goodbye
    bye, je reviendrai

    j'irai dans ma boîte en fer
    plus vite que la lumière
    j'irai au bout de la terre
    et j'irai jusque dans la ionosphère
    déjà au fond de mon coeur
    j'en vois de toutes les couleurs
    écoute, au fond de mon coeur,
    entends les battements de mon moteur

    Il ne faut pas pleurer, je pars

    il ne faut pas pleurer, goodbye
    bye, je reviendrai

    mais songe, songe à la douceur

    j'irai dans ma boîte en fer
    plus vite que la lumière
    j'irai au bout de la terre
    et j'irai jusque dans la ionosphère
    mais songe, songe à la douceur
    d'aller en chevaux-vapeur
    aller après l'horizon
    à des années-lumière de ma maison

    Il ne faut pas pleurer, je pars

    Composer(s): Boudewijn de Groot - Ernst Jansz
    Performer(s): Boudewijn de Groot



    Nu lig je naast mij, je slaapt
    Ik hoor je ademhalen
    En in het vroege morgenlicht
    Zie ik voor het eerst je kamer

    Je bent zo warm, je bent zo zacht
    Je arm ligt op m'n schouder
    Je bent zo lief geweest vannacht
    Ik heb van je gehouden

    En ik wou dat ik je zeggen kon
    Ik blijf voor altijd bij je
    Dat ik me van die dwaze drang
    Naar vrijheid kon bevrijden

    Maar het gaat niet

    Ik weet dat ik nog jaren
    Naar je kamer zal verlangen
    En naar de platen die je draaide
    Tranen op je wangen

    Zoals je naar me luisterde en fluisterde 'ik snap je'
    Zoals we samen lagen, samen lachten om een grapje
    Oh, ik wou dat ik nog één keer één zo'n nacht met je kon delen
    Je armen om heen, je zachte handen die me strelen

    Telkens weer denk ik aan je ogen bij het afscheid
    Telkens weer wil ik bij je zijn
    Telkens weer denk ik 'ik ga weg en nu voor altijd'
    En ik weet, het doet je pijn

    Je ligt naast me, je slaapt
    Ik hoor je ademhalen
    En in het vroege morgenlicht
    Zie ik weer je kamer

    Je bent zo warm, je bent zo zacht
    Je arm ligt op m'n schouder
    Je bent zo lief geweest vannacht
    Ik heb van je gehouden

    En ik wou dat ik nog één keer één zo'n nacht met je kon delen
    Je armen om heen, je zachte handen die me strelen

    Goodbye Dolly Gray
    Composer(s): Will D. Cobb; Paul Barnes
    Performer(s): J.W. Myers;
    Big Four Quartet; Harry MacDonough



    I have come to say goodbye, Dolly Gray
    It's no use to ask me why, Dolly Gray
    There's a murmur in the air, you can hear it everywhere
    It is the time to do and dare, Dolly Gray

    Don't you hear the tramp of feet, Dolly Gray
    Sounding through the village street, Dolly Gray
    'Tis the tramp of soldiers' true in their uniforms so blue
    I must say goodbye to you, Dolly Gray

    Goodbye Dolly I must leave you, though it breaks my heart to go
    Something tells me I am needed at the front to fight the foe
    See, the boys in blue are marching and I can no longer stay
    Hark, I hear the bugle calling, Goodbye Dolly Gray

    Hear the rolling of the drums, Dolly Gray
    Back from war the regiment comes, Dolly Gray
    On your lovely face so fair, I can see a look of fear
    For your soldier boy's not there, Dolly Gray

    For the one you love so well, Dolly Gray
    In the midst of battle fell, Dolly Gray
    With his face toward the foe, as he died he murmured low
    "I must say goodbye and go, Dolly Gray"

    Goodbye Dolly I must leave you, though it breaks my heart to go
    Something tells me I am needed at the front to fight the foe
    See, the boys in blue are marching and I can no longer stay
    Hark, I hear the bugle calling, Goodbye Dolly Gray

    Performer(s): Dalida



    Vous croyez que le monde entier
    S'pend à mon téléphone
    Que je suis toujours invitée
    Par un Dieu, par un homme
    Vous avez peur que je vous dise
    Désolée ma soirée est prise
    Et vous me dérangez en pleine vocalise

    Vous me voyez comme une star
    Mais je ne suis qu'une femme
    Vous savez quelquefois la gloire
    A fait des bleus à mon âme
    J'ai envie d'écouter d'autres mots
    Que ceux qu'on écrit dans les journaux
    Faîtes mon numéro et jetez-vous à l'eau

    Téléphonez-moi, téléphonez-moi
    Je n'attends que ça
    J'ai besoin d'une voix
    Téléphonez-moi dans mon agenda
    J'ai du temps pour moi
    Téléphonez-moi

    Je ne suis pas une panthère rose
    Qui griffe et puis qui s'en va
    Je n'vous aimerais pas over-dose
    Si vous faîtes le premier pas

    Vous m'croyez heureuse et tranquille
    Mais je suis seule sur mon île
    Sans vous toute ma vie ne tient qu'à un fil

    Téléphonez-moi, téléphonez-moi
    Je n'attends que ça
    J'ai besoin d'une voix
    Téléphonez-moi dans mon agenda
    J'ai du temps pour moi
    Téléphonez-moi

    Un soir de 31 décembre
    Dans la vallée des poupées
    Elle était toute seule dans sa chambre
    Personne ne l'a appelée

    C'était la plus belle fille du monde
    Elle était riche, elle était blonde
    Pourtant au dernier coup de minuit
    Adieu la vie

    Téléphonez-moi, téléphonez-moi
    C'est pas des histoires
    Avant qu'il soit trop tard
    Téléphonez-moi les pilules d'espoir
    J'en prends tous les soirs
    Téléphonez-moi, téléphonez-moi
    Téléphonez-moi, téléphonez-moi...

    My Heart Belongs To Daddy
    Composer(s): Cole Porter
    Originally performed by: Mary Martin
    Covered by various other artists



    I used to fall in love with all those boys who maul the young cuties
    But now I find I’m more inclined to keep my mind on my duties

    While tearing off a game of golf
    I may make a play for the caddy
    But when I do, I don’t follow through
    ‘cause my heart belongs to Daddy

    If I invite a boy some night
    To dine on my fine finnan haddie
    I just adore his asking for more
    But my heart belongs to Daddy

    Yes my heart belongs to Daddy
    So I simply couldn’t be bad
    Yes, my heart belongs to Daddy
    Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
    So I want to warn you, laddie
    Though I know you’re perfectly swell
    But my heart belongs to Daddy
    ‘cause my Daddy he treats it so well

    There was a dame that a football game
    Made long for the strong undergraddie
    I never dream of making the team
    ‘cause my heart belongs to daddy

    Yes, my heart belongs to Daddy
    So I simply couldn’t be bad
    Yes, my heart belongs to Daddy
    Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
    So I want to warn you, laddie
    Though I know you’re perfectly swell
    That my heart belongs to Daddy
    ‘cause my Daddy, he treats it so well

    Performer(s): Elton John;
    and various other artists



    When are you gonna come down
    When are you going to land
    I should have stayed on the farm
    I should have listened to my old man

    You know you can't hold me forever
    I didn't sign up with you
    I'm not a present for your friends to open
    This boy's too young to be singing the blues

    So goodbye yellow brick road
    Where the dogs of society howl
    You can't plant me in your penthouse
    I'm going back to my plough

    Back to the howling old owl in the woods
    Hunting the horny back toad
    Oh I've finally decided my future lies
    Beyond the yellow brick road

    What do you think you'll do then
    I bet that'll shoot down your plane
    It'll take you a couple of vodka and tonics
    To set you on your feet again

    Maybe you'll get a replacement
    There's plenty like me to be found
    Mongrels who ain't got a penny
    Sniffing for tidbits like you on the ground

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I've come to talk with you again
    Because a vision softly creeping
    Left its seeds while I was sleeping
    And the vision that was planted in my brain
    Still remains
    Within the sound of silence

    In restless dreams I walked alone
    Narrow streets of cobblestone
    Beneath the halo of a street lamp
    I turned my collar to the cold and damp
    When my eyes where stabbed by the flash of a neon light
    That split the night
    And touched the sound of silence

    And in the naked light I saw
    Ten thousand people, maybe more
    People talking without speaking
    People listening without hearing
    People writing songs that voices never share
    And no one there
    Disturbs the sound of silence

    Fools, I said, you do not know
    Silence like a cancer grows
    Hear my words that I might teach you
    Take my arms that I might reach you
    But my words like silent raindrops fell
    And echoed in the wells of silence

    And the people bowed and prayed
    To the neon god they made
    And the sign flashed its warning
    In the words that it was forming
    And the sign said, the words
    Of the prophets are written
    On the subway walls and tenement halls
    And whispered in the sound of silence

    My Heart Beat Like A Hammer
    Composer(s): Jeremy Spencer
    Performer(s): Fleetwood Mac



    I woke up one morning
    Waking with the rising sun
    Woke up one morning
    Awakin' with the rising sun, ahh
    Thought about my baby
    Did I just do what she done

    Well, I shoulda loved you more
    I know I didn't treat her right
    Oh, yes, I shoulda loved you more
    I know I didn't treat her right
    I know that a woman needs
    Rollin' every day and night
    Oh, yeah

    Well, my heart beat like a hammer
    My eyes plumb full of tears
    Yes, my heart beat like a hammer
    My eyes plumb full of tears
    She's been gone about an hour
    But it seems like a thousand years

    Don't ever dog your woman
    You know you're gonna ruin yourself
    Don't ever dog your woman
    You know you're gonna ruin yourself
    Know that a woman she'll
    Run off with somebody else
    Oh, yeah

    Goodbye To Love
    Composer(s): John Bettis; Richard Carpenter
    Performer(s): The Carpenters;
    and various other artists



    I'll say goodbye to love
    No one ever cared if I should live or die
    Time and time again the chance for love has passed me by
    And all I know of love is how to live without it
    I just can't seem to find it

    So I' ve made my mind up I must live my life alone
    And thought it's not the easy way
    I guees I' ve always known
    I' d say goodbye to love

    there are no tomorrows for this heart of mine
    Surely time will lose these bitter memories
    And I'll find that there is someone to believe in
    And to live for
    Something I could live for

    All the years of useless search
    Have finally reached an end
    Loneliness and empty days will be my only friend
    From this day love is forgotten
    I'll go on as best I can

    What lies in the future is a mistery to us all
    No one can predict the well of fortune as it falls
    there may come a time when I will see that I've been wrong
    But for now this is my song

    And it's goodbye to love
    I'll say goodbye to love

    Telephone Man
    Composer(s): Meri Wilson
    Performer(s): Meri Wilson



    I rented my apartment on a Monday at one
    Singin' doo-lolly-lolly, shakey-bum, shakey-bum
    Started movin' in it on a Tuesday at two
    Singin' doo-lolly-lolly, shakey-doo, shakey-doo
    Wednesday at three I called the phone company
    Singin' hey baby, put a phone in for me
    Thursday at four he came a-knockin' at my door
    Singin' "Hey baby, I'm your telephone man
    You just show me where you want it
    And I'll put it where I can
    I can put it in the bedroom
    I can put it in the hall
    I can put it in the bathroom
    I can hang it on the wall
    You can have it with a buzz
    You can have it with a ring
    And if you really want it
    You can have a ding-a-ling
    Because, hey baby, I'm your telephone man"

    Can you believe that... and then he says...
    "Now when other fellahs call you
    Tell 'em how it all began"
    Well... huh-huh...

    My heart began a-thumpin'
    And my mind began to fly
    And I knew I wasn't dealing
    With no ordinary guy
    So while he was a-talkin'
    I was thinking up my plan
    Then my fingers did the walkin'
    On the telephone man
    Singin' hey-lolly-lolly, hey-lolly-lolly
    Hey lolly-lolly, get it anyway you can

    Right... huh... huh... huh...
    So...

    I got it in the bedroom
    And I got it in the hall
    And I got it in the bathroom
    And he hung it on the wall
    I got it with a buzz
    And I got it with a ring
    And when he told me what my number was
    I got a ding-a-ling
    A-singin' hey-lolly-lolly, hey lolly-lolly
    Hey lolly-lolly, just a-doin' my thing

    Huh... I never did anything like this before...

    My Heart And I
    Composer(s): Richard Tauber; Tyshena
    Performer(s): Josef Locke
    and various other artists



    We are in love with you, my heart and I
    And we are always true, my heart and I
    When you are far away each smile's a tear
    But it's a lovely day when you are near
    Maybe that love is blind when passion rules
    And that my heart and I are just two fools
    And yet my darling if you ever say goodbye
    I know we both should die, my heart and I

    Once in a lifetime a love dream comes true
    Just once in a lifetime or never
    I met my fate on the day I met you
    The moment you kissed me I knew
    Strange fascination seems to fill and hold me
    Fateful temptation such as no one ever told me
    Everything I would endure for you
    Come what may, oh, I'll keep smiling through
    My heart is yours so you just take it
    It's only asking not to break it

    We are in love with you, my heart and I
    And we are always true, my heart and I
    When you are far away each smile's a tear
    But it's a lovely day when you are near
    Maybe that love is blind when passion rules
    And that my heart and I are just two fools
    And yet my darling if you ever say goodbye
    I know we both should die, my heart and I
