    The Girl Of My Best Friend
    Composer(s): Sam Bobrick - Ruby
    First release by: Elvis Presley - 1960
    Covered by multiple other artists



    The way she walks
    The way she talks
    How long can I pretend
    Oh I can't help I'm in love
    With the girl of my best friend

    Her lovely hair
    Her skin so fair
    I could go on and never end
    Oh, I can't help I'm in love
    With the girl of my best friend

    I want to tell her
    How I love her so
    And hold her in my arms, but then
    What if she got real mad and told him so
    I could never face either one again

    The way they kiss
    Their happiness
    Will my ache-in' ever end
    Or will I always be in love
    With the girl of my best friend?

    Never end,
    Will it ever end?
    Please let it end

    Cello Song Composer(s): Nick Drake First release by: Nick Drake - 1969 Covered by multiple other artists



    Strange face, with your eyes
    So pale and sincere
    Underneath you know well
    You have nothing to fear
    For the dreams that came to you when so young
    Told of a life
    Where spring is sprung

    You would seem so frail
    In the cold of the night
    When the armies of emotion
    Go out to fight
    But while the earth sinks to its grave
    You sail to the sky
    On the crest of a wave

    So forget this cruel world
    Where I belong
    I'll just sit and wait
    And sing my song
    And if one day you should see me in the crowd
    Lend a hand and lift me
    To your place in the cloud

    Forever
    Composer(s): Robert Lamm; Bill Gable
    Performer(s): Chicago



    Every day it seems we hear the same old story
    Every day there's lovers giving up on love
    People say it's just a fact of modern living
    All around us, people fall in love and marry
    Then we hear they're breaking up, and wonder why?
    Did they mean it when they said it was forever?
    All I know is what I feel

    Chorus:
    Forever
    Is a long, long time
    Longer than we ever realize
    Forever
    Is a long, long time
    I'm gonna love you the rest of my life
    Forever

    Every day I spend with you, I call it lucky
    Every night we touch and speak the words of love
    Did I mean it when I said it was forever?
    All I know is what I feel

    Chorus

    I'm gonna love you the rest of my life
    Forever

    The Girl Is Mine
    Composer(s): Michael Jackson
    First release by: Michael Jackson & Paul McCartney - 1982



    (Michael)
    Every night she walks right in my dreams
    Since I met her from the start
    I'm so proud I am the only one
    Who is special in her heart

    The girl is mine
    The doggone girl is mine
    I know she's mine
    Because the doggone girl is mine

    (Paul)
    I don't understand the way you think
    Saying that she's yours not mine
    Sending roses and your sill dreams
    Really just a waste of time

    Because she's mine
    The doggone girl is mine
    Don't waste your time
    Because the doggone girl is mine

    I love you more than he
    (Take you anywhere)

    (Michael)
    But I love you endlessly
    (Loving we will share)

    (Michael & Paul)
    So come and go with me
    Two on the town

    (Michael)
    But we both cannot have her
    So it's one or the other
    And one day you'll discover
    That she's my girl forever and ever

    (Paul)
    Don't build your hopes to be let down
    'Cause I really feel it's time

    (Michael)
    I know she'll tell you I'm the one for her
    'Cause she said I blow her mind

    The girl is mine
    The doggone girl is mine
    Don't waste your time
    Because the doggone girl is mine

    (Michael & Paul)
    She's mine, she's mine
    No, no, no, she's mine
    The girl is mine, the girl is mine
    The girl is mine, the girl is mine

    (Paul)
    The girl is mine, (yep) she's mine
    The girl is mine, (yes) she's mine

    (Michael)
    Don't waste your time
    Because the doggone girl is mine
    The girl is mine, the girl is mine

    (Paul)
    Michael, we're not going to fight about this, okay

    (Michael)
    Paul, I think I told you, I'm a lover not a fighter

    (Paul)
    I've heard it all before, Michael, she told me that I'm her forever lover
    You know, don't you remember

    (Michael)
    Well, after loving me, she said she couldn't love another

    (Paul)
    Is that what she said

    (Michael)
    Yes, she said it, you keep dreaming

    (Paul sings)
    I don't believe it

    (Michael & Paul)
    The girl is mine (mine, mine, mine)...

    (Repeat)

    Celle Qui T'a Laissé Tomber Composer(s): Claude Moine - Pierre Papadiamandis Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell



    C'était un de ces étés chauds
    Humides, collants à la peau
    L'orage ne faisait que gronder
    Les flics rôdaient dans l' quartier
    Les gens marchaient à pas lents
    Comm' pour retenir le temps
    Des gosses dans le caniveau
    Jouaient au pistolet à eau
    C'est là que j' l'ai vue passer
    Celle qui t'a laissé tomber

    Elle sortait d' la bouche du métro
    J'ai vu briller ton couteau
    Tu as cherché à te venger
    La marquer, lui faire payer
    J' te cause, t'embrouille, te raisonne
    Peine de cœur, y a pas mort d'homme
    Et puis t'es pas assez beau
    Pour faire la "une" des journaux
    J' vais t'aider à l'oublier
    Celle qui t'a laissé tomber

    Puis tu sais, ça sert à rien
    D' mourir au d'ssus d' ses moyens
    Ça s'rait trop lui accorder
    À cell' qui t'a laissé tomber
    Oui tu sais, ça sert à rien
    D' mourir au d'ssus d' ses moyens
    Elle s' fout d' c' qui peut t'arriver
    Celle qui t'a laissé tomber

    C'était un de ces étés chauds
    Où le moindr' geste est de trop
    Après 2 ou 3 bières glacées
    T'as fini par te calmer
    T'as r'trouvé l'appartement
    Avec ta mère, son amant
    D'puis qu' ton père a foutu le camp
    Tu disjonctes trop souvent
    C'est pas tout ça, j' vais retrouver
    Celle qui t'a laissé tomber

    Darlin', forever, forever
    You can break my heart
    Forever, if you want to
    I'll play the part of a fool
    Just to be with you forever

    Forever, darling, forever
    You can taunt me
    Take my love for granted
    But I'll always be just a fool
    Just to be with you forever

    I'll be your slave
    For the rest of my days
    Love you more in so many ways
    Just to be with you thrills me through and through

    And darlin', forever, forever
    You can taunt me
    Take my love for granted
    But I'll always be just a fool
    Just to be with you forever

    Forever, forever, I'll love you so

    Girl In The Wood
    Composer(s): Terry Gilkyson - Neal Stuart
    Performer(s): Frankie Laine



    (Remember me, remember me)
    (Remember for the rest of your life)

    Oh when I was a young boy
    And drove my mother wild
    I met a maiden in the woods
    And she said, "Child,

    Look deep into my green eyes
    And at my autumn hair
    When your a man you'll never see
    A girl quite as fair

    Remember me, oh, remember me"

    (Remember for the rest of your life)

    Her eyes were green as grassy pools
    Lookin' right at me
    Her hair was red and grown with leaves
    Just like an autumn tree

    She moved her tiny hands
    And she made a litle turn
    She swayed in the wind
    Just like a graceful fern

    I swore as she vanished
    That when I was full grown
    I'd have a girl just like her
    To be my very own

    And now I am a man
    Would I'd marry if I could
    For I can't lose the memory
    Of the girl in the wood

    Remember me oh remember me
    (Remember)
    Remember for the rest of your life
    (Remember)

    I wished a hundred times
    That she'd never looked at me
    With the first wild beauty
    That only you can't see

    For man cannot find it
    When he's lookin for a wife
    And he'll end up in bachelorhood
    The rest of his life

    Remember me, oh, remember me
    Remember for the rest of your life
    Remember me, remember me

    Remember for the rest of your life

    Il est temps que je te quitte
    Notre amour s'en est allé
    Couché près de toi je n'ai plus que sommeil

    Mais tes yeux se font plus tendres
    Tu ne sembles pas comprendre
    Que tu n'as plus rien à faire dans ma vie

    Aujourd'hui tu n'es que celle que j'oublie

    C'est fini, je fais peau neuve
    Quand je partirai demain
    Tu seras une lumiere qui s'éteint

    Toi qui étais mon Espagne
    Toi mon pays de cocagne
    Toi tu n'as plus rien à faire dans ma vie

    Aujourd'hui tu n'es que celle que j'oublie

    Forever and always my love will be true
    I'd wait for a lifetime if you asked me to
    You make me so happy, then leave me so blue
    But I'd wait forever and always for you

    Each night I pray that God above will let my dreams come true
    To hear my prayer and make you care my life I'd offer you
    For riches won't buy you a heart true as gold
    Forever and always to have and to hold

    Each night I pray that God above will let my dreams come true
    To hear my prayer and make you care my life I'd offer you
    For riches won't buy you a heart true as gold

    Composer(s): Jack Scholl - Bradford Browne - Max Rich
    Performer(s): Rudy Vallée & His Connecticut Yankees
    and multiple other artists



    There's a lake in the park
    There's a house by the lake
    There's a girl in the house in the park by the lake
    And the girl in the house by the lake in the park
    Is the girl in the little green hat

    And tonight after eight
    That's when I've got a date
    When the moon's riding high and the stars light the sky
    With the girl in the house by the lake in the park
    The girl in the little green hat

    There's no water in the lake
    there's no roof upon the house
    No treesies in the park at all
    But she'll wait beside the lake
    I'll be welcome at the house
    I'll meet her by the garden wall

    There's a ship on the lake
    There's a sailor on the shore
    There's a girl in his arms, she's the girl I adore
    So goodbye to the house by the lake in the park
    And the girl in the little green hat

    There's a storm on the lake
    There's a ship in the storm
    There's a girl on the ship in the storm on the lake
    And the girl in the lake on the ship in the storm
    Is the girl in the little green hat

    As the ship starts to dip
    She is losing her grip
    Every dip makes a tip, not the girl, but the ship
    But the girl on the ship has the pip from the trip
    The girl in the little green hat

    She's been sailing quite enough
    She's been clinging to the rails
    She's been dying to be home once more
    'Cause the lake is rather rough
    And the girl is rather pale
    She's glad to get her feet on shore

    Ah, she gave up the ship
    And the captain and his men
    Bought a round ticket trip to my arms once again
    Now I'm back in the park at the house by the lake
    With the girl in the little green hat

    Isadora
    Dancing
    Can you see her?
    Che guavara
    Marching beside her
    Valentino
    Loving every minute?
    Don’t you see them looking
    Looking down on you?

    Pictures on the walls of your room
    Gonna help you play the parts
    Of your ever changing mood
    Lying low
    The cast is set around your bones
    When all you ever wanted to be
    Was plain Mister Jones

    Cell of fame
    It’s gonna trap you forever
    Self confessions
    And your back’s against the wall

    Idolized by the hands that hold the key
    Not even time will set you free
    When it’s your turn to leave
    Hung at dawn
    Then you will join up
    With the faces looking on
    That’s where you belong

    Cell of fame
    It’s gonna trap you forever
    Self confessions
    And your back’s against the wall

    Forest For The Trees

    Bill Gibson; Huey Lewis; Loggins
    Performer(s): Huey Lewis & The News



    When you're a young man, down and out
    You really need someone to help you out
    It looks like life or death is your only choice
    It's really hard to see
    The forest for the trees
    The forest for the trees

    And when you get angry and everything's black or white
    You should know that it isn't that simple, no one's always right
    You know that your life is worth living
    You gotta start taking if no one else is giving
    And if you're not afraid to open your eyes
    You may be pleasantly surprised
    Things are never as bad as they seem
    You just gotta learn to see
    The forest for the trees

    So if you need somebody, tell them please
    If you want someone, get up off your knees
    Things are never as bad as they seem
    You just gotta learn to see
    The forest for the trees

    One day we'll meet

    Forest Fire
    Composer(s): Dead Kennedys
    Performer(s): Dead Kennedys



    No junk food, just earthly goods
    I ate weird berries in the woods
    Now I'm seeing colors
    I'm getting higher
    I think I'll start a forest fire
    There's a forest fire climbin' the hill
    Burnin' wealthy California homes
    Better run run run run run
    From the fire
    But some of us stay and watch
    And we think of your insurance cost
    And we laugh laugh laugh laugh laugh laugh
    At your lives
    Windows covered with bars
    Security guards
    Is that a house or a fortress
    Against the world
    Windows covered with bars
    Security guards
    Is that a house or a prison
    How you gonna get out?
    Electric bull and your tennis courts
    Pink sports cars and your boat
    Getting fried fried fried fried fried fried
    By the fire
    Windows covered by bars
    Floodlights for the yard
    It's a pleasure to watch you
    Watch it all melt
    But hey!
    What about the cocaine
    Stockpiled in the basement
    Be a hero and save it
    You know you're gonna need it
    Where's your brand new pretty wife
    She might still be inside
    Either save her or your cocaine from the fire
    But the gates and doors are locked
    Cause the burglar alarms went off
    Ever wonder why we laugh laugh
    At your lives
    Windows covered with bars
    Fences spiked with barbed wire
    Never looked so helpless
    Engulfed in flames
    Cameras watchin' the walls
    Don't forget the dogs
    Now you're trapped in your prison
    How you gonna get out
    See the gerbil
    Run run run run run run run run
    Run run run run run run run run
    Run run run run run run run run
    From the fire

    Girl In The Blue Velvet Band
    Composer(s): Cliff Carlisle - Mel Foree
    Performer(s): Bill Monroe
    and multiple other artists



    One evening while out for a ramble
    The hour was just about nine
    I met a young maiden in 'Frisco
    On the corner of Cherry and Pine

    On her face there was beauty of nature
    And her eyes seem to expand
    Her hair was so rich and so brilliant
    Entwined in a blue velvet band

    We strolled down the long street together
    In my pocket she placed a small hand
    She Planted the evidence on me
    A diamond that was worth ten grand

    Then I heard the wild scream of the sirens
    And the girl in the blue velvet band
    She left me to face all the troubles
    With a diamond that was worth ten grand

    They sent me to San Quenton for stealin'
    God knows I'm an innocent man
    For the guilty one now she lies dyin'
    That girl in the blue velvet band

    Last night while bedtime was ringin'
    I was standin' close to the bars
    I fancied I could hear her voice callin'
    From far out on the ocean of stars

    I'll be out in a week then I'm leavin'
    But I'll carry the name of a man
    Who spent ten years in this prison
    For the girl in the blue velvet band

    Last night while bedtime was ringin'
    I was standin' close to the bars
    I fancied I could hear her voice callin'
    From far out on the ocean of stars

    Céline ((Dutch Version: Celine (Sanne) - 1994)) Composer(s): Hugues Aufray - Vline Buggy - Mort Schuman First release by: Hugues Aufray - 1966



    Dis moi, Céline, les années ont passé
    Pourquoi n'as tu jamais pensé à te marier?
    De tout' mes sœurs qui vivaient ici
    Tu es la seule sans mari

    Non, non, non, ne rougis pas, non, ne rougis pas
    Tu as, tu as toujours de beaux yeux
    Ne rougis pas, non, ne rougis pas
    Tu aurais pu rendre un homme heureux

    Dis moi, Céline, toi qui es notre aînée
    Toi qui fus notre mèr', toi qui l'as remplacée
    N'as tu vécu pour nous autrefois
    Que sans jamais penser à toi?

    Non, non, non, ne rougis pas, non, ne rougis pas
    Tu as, tu as toujours de beaux yeux
    Ne rougis pas, non, ne rougis pas
    Tu aurais pu rendre un homme heureux

    Dis moi, Céline, qu'est il donc devenu
    Ce gentil fiancé qu'on n'a jamais revu?
    Est c' pour ne pas nous abandonner
    Que tu l'as laissée s'en aller?

    Non, non, non, ne rougis pas, non, ne rougis pas
    Tu as, tu as toujours de beaux yeux
    Ne rougis pas, non, ne rougis pas
    Tu aurais pu rendre un homme heureux

    Mais non, Céline, ta vie n'est pas perdue
    Nous sommes les enfants que tu n'as jamais eus
    Il y a longtemps que je le savais
    Et je ne l'oublierai jamais

    Ne pleure pas, non, ne pleure pas
    Tu as toujours les yeux d'autrefois
    Ne pleure pas, non, ne pleure pas
    Nous resterons toujours près de toi
    Nous resterons toujours près de toi

    Foreplay/Long Time
    Composer(s): Tom Scholz
    Performer(s): Boston; Smokin'



    It's been such a long time
    I think I should be goin', yeah
    And time doesn't wait for me, it keeps on rollin'
    Sail on, on a distant highway
    I've got to keep on chasin' a dream
    I've gotta be on my way
    Wish there was something I could say

    Well I'm takin' my time, I'm just movin' on
    You'll forget about me after I've been gone
    And I take what I find, I don't want no more
    It's just outside of your front door

    It's been such a long time
    It's been such a long time

    Well I get so lonely when I am without you
    But in my mind, deep in my mind
    I can't forget about you
    Good times, and faces that remind me
    I'm tryin' to forget your name and leave it all behind me
    You're comin' back to find me

    Well I'm takin' my time, I'm just movin' on
    You'll forget about me after I'v e been gone
    And I take what I find, I don't want no more
    It's just outside of y our front door

    It's been such a long time
    It's been such a long time

    Yeah
    It's been such a long time
    I think I should be goin', yeah
    And time doesnt wait for me, it keeps on rollin'
    There's a long road, I've gotta stay in time with
    I've got to keep on chasin' that dream, though I may never find it
    I'm always just behind it

    Well I'm takin' my time, I'm just movin' along
    Takin' my time, just movin' along
    Takin' my time, takin' my time...

    The Girl I Loved Out In The Golden West
    Composer(s): Charles Avril - C.H. Scoggins



    Twilight shadows come and go
    In the evening's sunset glow
    And the birds are singing goodnight in the dell
    And I hear the robin trill
    In its nest beneath the hill
    Singing melodies my sad heart knows so well
    While I listen in the glow
    Of pale moon rising slow
    I hear a voice of one I long best
    Tho' she left me long before
    Yet I see her as of yore
    The girl I loved out in the golden west

    Just like children running wild
    For no care our world defiled
    And our laughter echoed load among the hills
    And we rambled in the dell
    Near the spot I loved so well
    When I think of her my heart with sadness fills
    For one day down by the brook
    'Neath a cool and shady nook
    She laid her golden head upon my breast
    It was there her first sweet kiss
    Filled my raptured soul with bliss
    The girl I loved out in the golden west

    Once again I feel the spell
    But no words of mine can tell
    I can see her grave beneath the mountain crest
    And I'm keeping green the place
    Where tonight I see the face
    Of the girl I loved out in the golden west

    Céline
    (Traditional)
    Performer(s): Edith Piaf



    Sont trois jeunes garçons
    S'en allant à la guerre
    S'en allant à la guerre
    Tout droit en regrettant
    Tout droit en regrettant
    Bien leurs maîtresses

    Le plus jeune des trois
    Regrettait bien la sienne
    Regrettait bien la sienne
    Et il a bien raison
    C'est la plus jolie fille
    De tous les environs

    Le bon soldat s'en va
    Trouver son capitaine
    "Bonjour, mon capitaine
    Donnez-moi mon congé
    Pour allez voir Céline
    Qui ne fait que pleurer..."

    Son capitaine répond
    Comme un homme de guerre
    Ton joli passeport
    Va t'en, va voir ta fille
    Tu reviendras d'abord

    Puis le galant s'en va
    Au château de son père
    "Bonjour mon père, ma mère
    Bonjour mes chers parents
    Sans oublier Céline
    Que mon cœur aime tant"

    Son père lui répond
    "Mais ta Céline est morte
    Mais ta Céline est morte
    Est morte en t'appelant
    Son corps est dans la terre
    Son âme, au Paradis"

    Puis le galant s'en va
    Pleurer dessus sa tombe
    "Céline, ma Céline
    Parle, parle, parle-moi!
    Mon cœur se désespère
    De jamais plus te voir..."
    Céline lui répond
    "Ma bouche est pleine de terre
    Ma bouche est pleine de terre...
    La tienne est pleine d'amour!
    Je garde l'espérance
    De te revoir un jour..."

    Le bon soldat s'en va
    Trouver son capitaine
    "Bonjour, mon capitaine!
    Me voici de retour
    Puisque Céline est morte
    Je servirai toujours..."
