Telling Lies
Composer(s): Earl Palmer - Fats Domino
Performer(s): Fats Domino



You been tellin' me lies and I know it
There's no love in your eyes 'cause they show it
'Cause everytime I hold you in my arms
You're tellin' lies-lies-lies-lies-lies
You said you wanted me for your honey
But all you wanted was my money
You didn't even try to make me satisfied
You just lie-lie-lie-lie-lie

You knew you made me love you
When you rolled those great big eyes
Although I didn't know it
They were only stirrin' up lies
You been doin' me dirty and you hide it
I know I can't leave 'cause I've tried it
So, just as long as you hold me in your arms
You just lie-lie-lie-lie-lie

You knew you made me love you
When you rolled those great big eyes
Although I didn't know it
They were only stirrin' up lies
You been doin' me dirty and you hide it
I know I can't leave 'cause I've tried it
So, just as long as you hold me in your arms
You tell lies-lies-lies-lies-lies

Stray cat in a mad dog city
9 ways to sorrow
A moment's all it takes to say goodbye

I'm waiting

Wild cat in a sad dog story
9 roads to follow
A moment's all it takes to say goodbye

For all the love that's torn us, for us
For all the pain so sweet
Say you won't, say you won't leave

My love, I'm dreaming of one girl
Someone to make my world
Someone just like you
My love, the girl that I'm dreamin'
To give me that feeling
Someone just like you

Lost cat in a dead end story
9 lines that echo
A moment's all it takes to say goodbye

I'm waiting

Stray cat in a mad dog city
9 lives to borrow
A moment's all it takes to say goodbye

For all the love before us, for us
For all the pain so sweet
Say you won't, say you won't leave

My love, I'm dreaming of one girl
Someone to make my world
Someone just like you
My love, the girl that I'm dreamin'
To give me that feeling
Someone just like you

Siamo caduti in volo, mio sole
Siamo caduti in volo
Siamo caduti in volo, mio cielo
Siamo caduti in volo

Gonna paint this town, for you
Turn it upside down
Say you won't, say you won't leave

My love, I'm dreaming of one girl
Someone to make my world
Someone just like you
My love, the girl that I'm dreamin'
To give me that feeling
Someone just like you

My love, I'm dreaming of one girl
Someone to make my world
Someone just like you

Gotta Be This Or That
Composer(s): Sunny Skylar
Performer(s): Benny Goodman;
and various other artists



If you ain't wrong, you're right
If it ain't day, it's night
If you ain't sure, you might
Gotta be this or that

If it ain't dry, it's wet
If you ain't got, you get
If it ain't gross, it's net
Gotta be this or that

If it ain't sis, you can't miss
It's got to be your brother
Can't you see it's gotta be
One way or the other

If it ain't full, it's blank
If you don't spend, you bank
If it ain't Dee, it's Frank
Gotta be this or that

Telling It To The Daisies
Composer(s): Harry Warren - Joe Young
Performer(s): Nick Lucas



Telling it to the daisies
But it never gets back to you

Why am I so bashful, so afraid to part
With a lot of love words locked up in my heart
For the want of courage foolishly I've tried
To conceal what I reveal by a countryside

Telling it to the daisies,
Hoping they'll tell you too
Pouring my heart out to them
But it never gets back to you

What do I do on Sunday?
Under those lonely skies
Same as I do on Monday
But they never do put you wise

Oh, I'm so in love with you, and
Oh, I feel you're never gonna know
Unless the birdies tell you so

I know I'm wasting a lot of love time
Time and again I'm blue
Telling it to the daisies
But it never gets back to you

I know I'm wasting a lot of love time
Time and again I'm blue
Telling it to the daisies
But it never gets back to you

My Love

and various other artists



My love is warmer than the warmest sunshine
Softer than a sigh
My love is deeper than the deepest ocean
Wider than the sky
My love is brighter than the brightest star
That shines every night above
And there is nothing in this world
That can ever change my love

Something happended to my heart the day that I met you
Something that I never felt before
You are always on my mind no matter what I do
And everyday it seems that I want you more

My love is warmer than the warmest sunshine
Softer than a sigh
My love is deeper than the deepest ocean
Wider than the sky
My love is brighter than the brightest star
That shines every night above
And there is nothing in this world
That can ever change my love

Once I thought that love was meant for anyone else but me
Once I thought you'd never come my way
Now it only goes to show how wrong we all can be
For now I have to tell you everyday

My love is warmer than the warmest sunshine
Softer than a sigh
My love is deeper than the deepest ocean
Wider than the sky
My love is brighter than the brightest star
That shines every night above
And there is nothing in this world
That can ever change my love

My love is warmer than the warmest sunshine
Softer than a sigh
My love is deeper than the deepest ocean
Wider than the sky
My love is brighter than the brightest star
That shines every night above
And there is nothing in this world
That can ever change my love

Gott Sei Dank Jetzt Bist Du Da
Performer(s): Salvatore Adamo



Ich fuhr durch sieben Meere wohl
und suchte dort nach Gold und Glück
Ich segelte von Pol zu Pol
kam ohne Illusionen zurück.
Hundertmal glaubte ich dich zu erkennen
in einem Blick voll Zärtlichkeit
Hundertmal hieß sich kennen auch sich trennen
Hundertmal war's schade um die Zeit

Gott sei dank jetzt bist du da
komm ruh' dich in meinen Armen aus
Gott sei dank jetzt bist du da
jetzt bin ich endlich bei dir zu Haus

Dich suchend hab' ich konsequent
mir Paradiese ausgemalt
Wie Maler ohne Maltalent
ich seh' dich dort in Feengestalt
Und Nacht für Nacht träumt ich dieselben Bilder
in Farben, die man Hoffnung nennt
Beim ersten Flügelschlag hat dann der junge Tag
den Maler und sein Bild getrennt

Gott sei dank jetzt bist du da
nun ruh' ich in deinen Armen aus
Gott sei dank jetzt bist du da
jetzt bin ich endlich bie dir zu Haus

Tellin' Stories
Composer(s): Jon Brookes - Mark Collins - Martin Blunt - Rob Collins - Tim Burgess
Performer(s): The Charlatans



Come see me in the morning
Can't you see I'm tellin' stories
My sweet angel's everlasting true love ways 
I'll wait I'll sow the seed I'll set the scene
And I watch the world go by

See me come through changes
revelations to blank pages
I'll find a brighter guide to see me through
And leaves fall to the ground to turn brown
through the day just like you

Live for the day I see your heart is empty I've got plenty
Joe come ride with me I see your head is is meant to be cemented 
It's true, when the stories that you tell come back to haunt you 

I'll be there in the morning
can't you see I'm tellin' stories
My sweet angel's everlasting true love ways
While others turn to others introduce
you and walk right on through

It's just about knowing where
you come from being you and
singing love songs can begin to fill your day
I could lead you to the top don't stop
I could lead you there still

Live for the day I see your heart is empty I've got plenty
Joe come ride with me I see your head is is meant to be cemented 
It's true, when the stories that you tell come back to haunt you

My Love

I've been through so many changes in my life woman
It's a wonder I ain't lost my mind
And I ain't never said how much I need you sugar
But I sho' need you by my side

My love, just thinking about you baby
Just blows my mind
My love, just thinking about you baby

Life with me I know for sure it ain't be easy
But you stayed with me anyway
And even though you ain't gonna lose too much by leaving
I'm so glad you stayed

My love, just thinking about you baby
Just blows my mind
My love, just thinking about you baby
Just blows my mind all the time

You've been my friend and you've been my lover, oh lord
Honey you're everything I need
You've made my love so strong now I know where I belong
Oh girl you'll never have to worry
Oh baby any more, any more

My love, just thinking about you baby
Just blows my mind
My love, just thinking about you baby
Just blows my mind all the time

Gota D'Água
Composer(s): Chico Buarque
Performer(s): Chico Buarque;
and various other artists



Já lhe dei meu corpo, minha alegria
Já estanquei meu sangue quando fervia
Olha a voz que me resta
Olha a veia que salta
Olha a gota que falta
Pro desfecho da festa
Por favor

Deixe em paz meu coração
Que ele é um pote até aqui de mágoa
E qualquer desatenção, faça não
Pode ser a gota d'água

Early In The Morning
((French Version: Chaque Jour À La Même Heure (Claude François) - 1969))
Composer(s): Eddie Seago - Mike Leander
First release by: Vanity Fare - 1969
Covered by multiple other artists



Evening is the time of day
I find nothing much to see
Don't know what to do, but I come to
When it's early in the morning
Over by the window day is dawning
When I feel the air
I feel that life is very good to me, you know
In the sun, there is so much yellow
something in the early morning meadow
Tells me that today you're on your way
And you'll be coming home, home to me

Night time isn't clear to me
I find nothing near to me
Don't know what to do but I come to
When it's early in the morning
Very, very early without warning I came
Feel a newly born vibration
Sneaking up on me again
There's a song bird on my pillow
I can see the fun in weeping willow
I can see the sun
You're on your way and you'll be coming
Home, home with me

My Lonely Sad Eyes
Composer(s): Van Morrison
Originally performed by: Them
Covered by: Maria McKee; Bobby Patterson



Fill me my cup
And I'll drink your sparkling wine
Pretending everything is fine
'till I see your sad eyes

Throw me a kiss
Across a crowded room
Some sunny wind-swept afternoon
Is none too soon for me to miss
My sad eyes
Whoa my sad eyes
Are glad eyes, but you my sad eyes

Fortunate and free
And there go you and I
Between the under sky
But who are you and I
To wonder why we do so?
My sad eyes
Lonely

Oh what a story
The moon and all it's glory
This time I sing it everthing
For you my sad eyes

You better fill me my cup
And I'll drink your sparklin' wine
Pretendin' everything is fine
'till I see your sad eyes
Whoa, my sad eyes
Are glad eyes
Is what you, my sad eyes
Lonely, sad eyes
Ooo

Gota A Gota
Composer(s): Miguel Bosé; L. Ferrario; M. Grilli
Performer(s): Miguel Bosé



Dicen que pronto a la capital
traerán el mar madriterráneo
gota a gota
gota a gota

y han publicado que el pirineo
que se fugó vive en canarias
llegó de paso
llegó de paso

Si la noticia no me engaña
Badajoz será una isla
del nuevo trópico
del nuevo trópico

Anunciarán mañana mismo
que en La Coruña hay un desierto
de mejillones
de mejillones

Y entonces quien pensaba qué
o suponía qué no podrán más peros
y quien lo imaginó o nunca lo negó
ya no dudará
Y venga fiesta y confusión
que esta información es la que va a misa
Y quien quiera saber
no ha de conocer nunca la verdad
Un gota a gota agota
Un gota a gota agota

Dicen que diga que no he dicho
que la Giralda va a ser madre
ay! qué penalty
ay! qué penalty

Cuentan fiscales nocturnos
que soñar se hará muy caro
tendrá un impuesto
tendrá un impuesto

Tellement Bu, Tellement Fumé
Composer(s): Joe Dassin - Claude Lemesle - Pierre Delanoë
First release by: Joe Dassin - 1979



Je n'me souviens même pas de la couleur de ses yeux
Je crois bien qu'ils était verts, j'parie qu'ils étaient bleus
Je me rappelle seulement que je les aimais
Tellement bu, tellement fumé

Dans ma mémoire brouillard, je ne retrouve plus son prénom
Dans mes idées fumées j'fais à peine son brouillon
Je n'sais plus c'qu'elle disait, sauf que j'y ai cru
Tellement fumé, tellement bu

L'oubli ça tient à quoi?
Des glaçons dans un verre
Un halo de tabac
Dansant dans la lumière
Ca tient à rien du tout, l'oubli
C'est comme la vie

Je revois vaguement un studio mal meublé
Mais qui pourrait me dire la couleur du papier?
Y'avait sûrement un lit, puisqu'on s'est aimé 
Tellement bu, tellement fumé

L'oubli ça tient à qui? 
Une inconnue qui passe
Qui s'égare une nuit
Au fond de mon impasse
L'oubli ça tient à rien du tout
Mais pas à nous

Une fugue en Normandie, pour arroser le beau temps
Un retour à Paris, je n'sais plus trop comment
Sauf la vague impression que c'était foutu
Tellement fumé, tellement bu

Qu'est-ce que je suis con d'avoir déchiré sa photo
J'aimerais bien la revoir, j'ai plus son numéro
De toute façon je n'sais plus téléphoner
Tellement bu, tellement fumé

My Little Town
Composer(s): Paul Simon
Performer(s): Simon & Garfunkel
and various other artists



In my little town
I grew up believ--ing
God keeps His eye on us all
And He used to lean upon me
As I pledged allegiance to the wall
Lord I recall
My little town

Coming home after school
Flying my bike past the gates
Of the factories
My mom doing the laundry
Hanging our shirts
In the dirty breeze

And after it rains
There's a rainbow
And all of the colors are black
It's not that the colors aren't there
It's just imagin-ation they lack

Everything's the same
Back in my little town

Nothing but the dead and dying 
Back in my little town
Nothing but the dead and dying 
Back in my little town

In my little town
I never meant nothin'
I was just my fathers son
Saving my money
Dreaming of glory
Twitching like a finger
On the trigger of a gun

Leaving nothing but the dead and dying
Back in my little town 
Nothing but the dead and dying
Back in my little town

Got You On My Mind
Composer(s): Howard Biggs; Joe "Cornbread" Thomas
Performer(s): Eric Clapton;
and various other artists



I've got you on my mind, I'm feeling kind of sad and low
Got you on my mind, feeling kind of sad and low
I'm wondering where you are, wondering why you had to go

Tears begin to fall every time I hear your name
Tears begin to fall every time I hear your name 
But since you went away, nothing seems to be the same

No matter how I try
My heart just don't see why 
I can't forget you 
If ever it should be 
You want to come back to me
You know I'd let you

I've got you on my mind, I'm feeling kind of sad and low
Got you on my mind, feeling kind of sad and low
I'm wondering where you are, wondering why you had to go 

Chorus 

I've got you on my mind, I'm feeling kind of sad and low
Got you on my mind, feeling kind of sad and low
I'm wondering where you are, wondering why you had to go

I'm wondering where you are, wondering why you had to go
I'm wondering where you are, wondering why you had to go

Tell Your Story (Sing Your Song)
Composer(s): Chris Farlowe
Performer(s): Atomic Rooster



Tell your story, sing your song
Can't you see I'm flying
Through the mountains, to the sun
Catch the daylight dying
Tell your story, sing your song
Fortune's wheel is turning
Time will pass, and you'll be gone
Teach the life you're learning

Tell your story, sing your song
Catch me quick, I'm leaving
Silver sunflower trapped in space
In the web I'm weaving
Tell your story, sing your song
Breaking through confusion
Cut the knot of lights we've lit
Life is an illusion

Tell your story, sing your song
Can't you see I'm flying
Through the mountains, to the sun
Catch the daylight dying
Tell your story, sing your song
Fortune's wheel is turning
Time will pass, and you'll be gone
Teach the life you're learning

Tell your story, sing your song
Catch me quick, I'm leaving
Silver sunflower trapped in space
In the web I'm weaving
Tell your story, sing your song
Breaking through confusion
Cut the knot of lights we've lit
Life is an illusion...

My Little Red Book
Composer(s): Burt Bacharach; Hal David
Originally performed by: Manfred Mann
Covered by various other artists



I just got out my little red book
The minute that you said goodbye
I thumbed right through my little red book
I wasn't gonna sit and cry
And I went from A to Z
I took out every pretty girl in town
They danced with me and as I held them

All I did was talk about you
Hear your name and I'd start to cry
There's just no getting over you... oh, no...

There ain't no girl in my little red book
Who could ever replace your charms
And each girl in my little red book
Knows you're the one I'm thinkin' of
Oh won't you please come back
Without your precious love I can't go on
Where can love be I need you so much

All I did was talk about you
Hear your name and I'd start to cry
There's just no getting over you... oh, no...

Oh won't you please come back
Without your precious love I can't go on
It's haunting me I need you so much

All I did was talk and talk about you
Hear your name and I'd start to cry
There's just no getting over you
All I did was talk and talk about you
Hear your name and I'd start to cry
There's just no getting over you... oh no

Got To Go Back
Composer(s): Van Morrison
Performer(s): Van Morrison



When I was a young boy
Back in Orangefield
I used to gaze out
My classroom window and dream
And then go home and listen to Ray sing
"I believe to my soul" after school
Oh that love that was within me
You know it carried me through
Well it lifted me up and it filled me
Meditation contemplation too

Chorus:
Oh we've got to go back
Got to go back
Got to go back
Got to go back
For the healing go on with the dreaming

Well there's people in the street
And the summer's almost here
We've got to go outside in the fresh air
And breathe while it's still clear
Breathe it in all the way down
To your stomach too
And breathe it out with a radiance
into the nightime air

We've got to go back etc. etc...

Got my ticket at the airport
Well I guess I've been marking time
I've been living in another country
That operates along entirely different lines
Keep me away from porter or whiskey
Don't play anything sentimental it'll make me cry
I've got to go back my friend
Is there really any need to ask why

We've got to go back etc. etc...

My Little Persian Rose
Composer(s): Edgar Allan Woolf; Anatol Friedland
Performer(s): Peerless Quartet



I've seen flowers rare growing everywhere 
but I've never seen a rose like you
From your haunt if I could tear you right up on my heart 
I'd wear you and no one could ever share you, I would be so true
But roses are like love and they fade as fast 
with all the storms that blow; love can't ever last
I'll shield you from all harms I'm mad about your charms 
I'll hold you in my arms till all dangers passed

When the fall draws near and the world looks drear 
and the roses start to droop and fade
I will wrap you completely in my loving arms so neatly 
that you'll keep on blooming sweetly 
so don't be afraid when winter comes along with its frost and snows
and an icy blanket then over the world it throws
Little "Bride-Rose" have no fear, for the spring will then be near 
to bring us rosebuds, dear little Persian Rose

My little Persian Rose, nobody knows how I love you
Oh pretty flower, here in your bower, with love I'll shower you every hour
a garden just for two I'm sure will do for me and you, Dearie
I'm wild about you, can't live without you, my little Persian Rose
