    The Love I Lost
    Composer(s): Kenny Gamble - Leon Huff
    First release by: Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes - 1973



    I can remember planning
    Building my whole world around you
    And I can remember hoping
    That you and I could make it on through
    But something went wrong
    We loved each other
    We just couldn't get along
    Take a good look at me
    I'm in misery, can't you see

    The love I lost (the love, the love I lost)
    Was a sweet love (it was a sweet love)
    The love I lost (the love, the love I lost)
    Was complete love (it was complete love)
    The love I lost (the love I lost)
    I will never (never) no no never
    (Never) love again ooh

    I can't remember nothing, no no
    But the good times we used to share
    I'm so sad and lonely
    Without you my life is so dead
    I'm sorry to say
    You go your way and I'll go my way
    It hurts deep inside
    The day we said goodbye, but

    The love I lost (the love, the love I lost)
    Was a sweet love (it was a sweet love)
    The love I lost (the love, the love I lost)
    Was complete love (it was complete love)
    The love I lost ooh ooh
    I will never (never) no no never
    (Never) love again (I'll never love again)
    I will never (never) no no never
    (Never) love again ooh ooh ooh ooh
    I will never (never) no no never
    (Never) love again

    The love, the love I lost, ooh
    The love, the love I lost

    The love I lost (the love, the love I lost)
    Was a sweet love (it was a sweet love)
    The love I lost (the love, the love I lost)
    Was complete love (it was complete love)
    The love I lost ooh ooh
    I will never (never) no no never
    (Never) love again (I'll never love again)
    I will never (never) no no never
    (Never) love again ooh ooh ooh ooh
    I will never (never) no no never
    (Never) love again

    Che Cosa Resterà Di Me ((aka Che Cosa Resta (Franco Battiato - 1999)) ((Adapted from: Que Reste-T-Il De Nos Amours? (Charles Trenet) - 1942)) Composer(s): Charles Trenet - Léo Chauliac - Franco Battiato Performer(s): Gianni Morandi - 1988

    Versions In Other Languages: 1957 - I Wish You Love (Keely Smith) 1977 - Ce-A Mai Iramas? (Alla Baianova)



    Lo sai che più s'invecchia
    più affiorano ricordi lontanissimi
    come se fosse ieri
    mi vedo a volte in braccio a mia madre
    e sento ancora i teneri commenti di mio padre
    I pranzi le domeniche dai nonni
    le voglie e le esplosioni irrazionali
    i primi passi, gioie e dispiaceri
    La prima goccia bianca che spavento
    e che piacere strano
    e un innamoramento senza senso
    per legge naturale a quell'età
    I primi accordi su di un organo da chiesa in sacrestia
    ed un dogmatico rispetto
    per le istituzioni

    Che cosa resterà di me
    del transito terrestre
    di tutte le impressioni
    che ho avuto in questa vita

    Mi piacciono le scelte passionali
    quella saggezza pratica che si tramanda il popolo
    adoro quando sto lontano qualche settimana
    quell'atmosfera che ritrovo ritornando qui in Emilia
    figlio di un pensiero rosso e partigiano
    Di recente ho qualche fremito diverso sul creato
    Anch'io a guardarmi bene vivo da millenni
    e vengo dritto dalla civiltà più alta dei Sumeri
    dall'arte cuneiforme degli scribi
    e dormo spesso dentro a un sacco a pelo
    perché non voglio perdere i contatti con la terra

    Che cosa resterà di me
    del transito terrestre
    di tutte le impressioni
    che ho avuto in questa vita

    Che cosa resterà di noi
    del transito terrestre
    di tutte le impressioni
    che abbiamo in questa vita

    Railroad Lady
    Composer(s): Jimmy Buffett; Jerry Jeff Walker
    Performer(s): Jimmy Buffett;
    and various other artists



    She's a railroad lady
    Just a little bit shady
    Spendin' her days on the trains
    She's a semi-good looker
    But the fast rails they took 'er
    Now she's tryin', just tryin' to get home again

    South Station in Boston
    To the freightyards of Austin
    From the Florida sunshine
    To the New Orleans rain
    Now that the rail p.a.c.s.
    Has taken the best tracks
    She's tryin', just tryin' to get home again

    She's a railroad lady
    Just a little bit shady
    Spendin' her life on a train
    Once a pullman car traveller
    Now the brakeman won't have 'er
    She's tryin', just tryin' to get home again

    Once a high ballin' loner
    He thought he could own 'er
    Bought her a fur and a big diamond ring
    She hocked 'em for cold cash
    Left town on the Wabash
    Never thinkin', never thinkin' of home way back then

    But the rails are now rusty
    The dinin' car's dusty
    Gold plated watches have taken their toll
    Yeah the railroads are dyin'
    And the lady she's cryin'
    On a bus to Kentucky and home that's her goal

    She's a railroad lady
    Just a little bit shady
    Spendin' her life on a train
    She's a semi-good looker
    But the fast rails they took 'er
    Now she's tryin', just tryin' to get home again

    Yes on a bus to Kentucky and home once again

    The Lost Chord
    Composer(s): Arthur Sullivan - Adelaide Anne Proctor
    Performer(s): Enrico Caruso
    and multiple other artists



    Seated one day at the organ
    I was weary and ill at ease
    And my fingers wander'd idly over the noisy keys
    I know not what I was playing
    Or what I was dreaming then
    But I struck one chord of music
    Like the sound of a great amen
    Like the sound of a great amen

    It flooded the crimson twilight
    Like the close of an angel's psalm
    And it lay on my fever'd spirit
    With a touch of infinite calm
    It quieted pain and sorrow
    Like love overcoming strife,
    It seem'd the harmonious echo from our discordant life
    It link'd all perplexed meanings
    Into one perfect peace, and trembled away into silence
    As if it were loath to cease

    I have sought, but I seek vainly
    That one lost chord divine
    Which came from the soul of the organ
    And enter'd into mine
    It may be death's bright angel
    Will speak in that chord again
    It maybe that only in heav'n
    I shall hear that grand amen

    Che C'è
    Performer(s): Antonello Venditti



    Che c'è
    è ritornato il sole dentro me
    e l'aria è più leggera come se
    tutto l'amore che cercavi adesso c'è
    e non ti manca niente al mondo

    Che c'è
    che bella 'sta giornata insieme a te
    di lacrime e di gioia come se
    tutta la vita che speravi è qui per te
    e non ti manca niente al mondo
    Il tempo ci ritrova qui ancora un'altra volta
    i nostri cuori unisoni legati un'altra volta
    per te che ci fai liberi ovunque al mondo siamo
    in ogni giorno che vorrai io griderò ti amo

    Perché
    sognavo questa Roma e Roma c'è
    e l'aria e' più leggera come se
    tutto l'amore che cercavi adesso c'è
    e non ti manca niente al mondo

    E il tempo ci ritrova qui ancora un'altra volta
    i nostri cuori unisoni cantare un'altra volta
    per te che ci fai liberi ovunque al mondo siamo
    in ogni giorno che vorrai io griderò ti amo

    Che c'è
    è ritornato il sole dentro me
    e l'anima è leggera come se
    tutto l'amore che cercavi adesso c'è
    e non ti manca niente al mondo

    Perché
    sognavo questa Roma e Roma c'è
    e l'aria e' più leggera come se
    tutto l'amore che speravi è qui per te
    e non ti manca niente al mondo

    Ragtime Cowboy Joe
    Composer(s): Lewis F. Muir;
    Maurice Abrahams; Grant Clarke
    Performer(s): Jo Stafford;
    and various other artists



    Out in Arizona where the bad men are
    And the only friend to guide you is an Eve'ning star
    The roughest toughest man by far
    Is Ragtime Cowboy Joe
    Got his name from singing to the cows and sheep
    Ev'ry night they say he sings the herd to sleep
    In a basso rich and deep
    Crooning soft and low

    He always sings, raggy music to the cattle
    As he swings, back and forward in the saddle
    On a horse, that is syncopated, gaited
    And there's such a funny meter to the roar of his repeater
    How they run, when they hear that fellow's gun
    Because the Western folks all know
    He's a high-faluting scooting, shooting son-of-a-gun from Arizona
    Ragtime Cow Boy Joe

    Dressed up ev'ry Sunday in his Sunday clothes
    He beats it for the village where he always goes
    And ev'ry girl in town is Joe's
    'Cause he's a ragtime bear
    When he starts a spieling on the dance hall floor
    No one but a lunatic would start a war
    Wise men know his forty four
    Makes men dance for fair

    He always sings, raggy music to the cattle
    As he swings, back and forward in the saddle
    On a horse, that is syncopated, gaited
    And there's such a funny meter to the roar of his repeater
    How they run, when they hear that fellow's gun
    Because the Western folks all know
    He's a high-faluting scooting, shooting son-of-a-gun from Arizona
    Ragtime Cow Boy Joe

    Sì avvocato, lei mi parla così della provincia perché non li conosce
    Lei non sa mica come è fatta questa gente qua
    Lo vede quello là, sì quello col testone

    lui che a quest’ora qua non sa già più il suo nome
    un nome rispettato, la casa sulla piazza
    mai che abbia lavorato, arriva qui ogni sera
    e inchioda il suo sedere davanti a un tavolino
    e affoga nel barbera
    Poi quando vien mattino te lo ritrovi dove?
    Ma in chiesa sissignore, dritto come una scopa
    con l’occhio d’affogato va far la comunione
    per smaltire il vino

    Mi creda avvocato che quel verme lì non pensa mica sa? No!
    Prega!

    E poi c’è il fratellino, un "temperapennini"
    ragioniere al catasto, incassa bustarelle
    distribuisce inchini, peggio d’un dente guasto
    pensi che s’è sposato con una mezza gobba
    solo perché ha la dote, ma non gli basta mai
    Col suo bel cappellino, col suo bel cappottino
    col suo bel "seicentino" fa pure lo strozzino!
    Non manca una funzione, deve tenere d’occhio
    sessanta debitori che lui tiene in ginocchio

    Mi creda avvocato che quel fetente là non prega mica sa?
    Frega!

    E poi ci sono gli altri, la madre sempre muta
    che macina golfini e il padre possidente
    che è morto scivolando sul pavimento a cera
    Da una cornice nera come da una finestra
    osserva tutto il gregge che mangia la minestra
    e senti fare ‘Chhiu-Chhiu’, e senti fare ‘Chhiu-Chhiu’
    E poi c’è la bisnonna che trema ma non muore
    le contano le ore e invocano il momento
    di chiudere la bara e aprire il testamento

    Mi creda avvocato ai funerali di quella gente lì mica si canta sa?
    No, ah, ah, no!
    Si conta!

    E poi, e poi, e poi
    c’è Margherita che è bella come il sole
    e lei non ha idea del bene che mi vuole
    se ne ama addirittura una casa nostra
    è piena di finestre e quasi niente mura
    e dentro solo noi a ridere di gioia
    la cosa è già sicura, solo che c’è una noia
    la sua famiglia è contro,la sua famiglia è contro

    Ce l’hanno su con me, mi danno del pezzente
    mi danno del barbone, e già per quella gente
    è meglio un delinquente ma con la posizione
    e anche se la figlia sembra differente
    è nata ed è cresciuta in quel ambiente

    Da un mese a questa parte la tengono al guinzaglio
    e quando ci incontriamo gli occhi di lei mi fissano
    e sembra che mi dica che un giorno fuggirà
    che mi raggiungerà e allora in quel momento
    allora io le credo avvocato ma solo in quel momento
    perché da quelle case là nessuno scappa mai!

    Ha capito avvocato? Da lì non si va via!
    Oh come è tardi! Mi scusi, io torno a casa mia…

    I know I'd go from rags to riches
    If you would only say you care
    And though my pocket may be empty
    I'd be a millionaire

    My clothes may still be torn and tattered
    But in my heart I'd be a king
    Your love is all that ever mattered
    It's everything

    So open your arms and you'll open the door
    To ev'ry treasure that I'm hopin' for
    Hold me and kiss me and tell me you're mine ever more

    Must I forever be a beggar
    Whose golden dreams will not come true?
    Or will I go from rags to riches?
    My fate is up to you

    Must I forever be a beggar
    Whose golden dreams will not come true?
    Or will I go from rags to riches?
    My fate is up to you

    Hello Mrs Johnson, you self righteous woman
    Sunday School teacher, what brings you out slummin'
    Do you reckon the preacher would approve where you are
    Standing here visitin' with a back-slidin' Christian
    In a neighborhood bar

    Well, yes, that's my bottle and yes, that's my glass
    And I see you're eyeballin' this pretty young lass
    It ain't none of your business, but, yes, she's with me
    And we don't need no sermon, you self righteous woman
    Just let us be

    The Lord knows I'm drinkin' and runnin' around
    And he don't need your loud mouth informing the town
    The Lord knows I'm sinnin' and sinnin' ain't right
    But me and the good Lord gonna have us a good talk later tonight

    Goodbye Mrs Johnson, you self righteous biddy
    I don't need your preaching and I don't need your pity
    So, go back to whatever you hypocrites do
    And when I talk to heaven, be nice
    And I'll put in a good word for you

    Yes, the Lord knows I'm drinkin' and runnin' around
    And he don't need your loud mouth informing the town
    The Lord knows I'm sinnin' and sinnin' ain't right
    But me and the good Lord gonna have us a good talk later tonight

    Yes, me and the good Lord gonna have us a good talk later tonight

    Chauffard Composer(s): Francis Cabrel Performer(s): Francis Cabrel



    Y a les bandes blanches qui défilent
    Et ta vie qui s'accroche à son fil
    Tu es dans la zone rouge du compteur
    Mais tu ne t'occupes plus des couleurs
    Il faut surtout pas que tes mains tremblent
    Y a les troncs des arbres qui t'attendent
    Même dans les passages difficiles
    Y a les bandes blanches qui défilent
    Y a le vent qui siffle sous les tôles
    Et le cri des pneus quand tu décolles
    Et derrière toi la nuit qui retombe
    Sur le sillage étroit de ta bombe
    Est-ce que c'est ton cœur qui fait hurler la machine
    Ou bien le moteur qui bat dans ta poitrine
    Et qui propulse ton projectile
    Entre les bandes blanches qui défilent
    Chauffard
    Tu vois le monde autour dans des brumes liquides
    Et c'est pour ça que tu cours toujours sur la voie rapide
    Chauffard, chauffard
    Tu pousses la musique jusqu'au plus fort
    Pour pas sentir les doigt de la mort
    Et ni les chiens qui aboient dans leur sommeil
    Ni les hommes de loi que tu réveilles
    Tu vois quelques tâches claires sur le dos des camions
    Quelques mots de travers sur des panneaux bidons
    Et ton sang fait monter les aiguilles
    Jusqu'au rouge des feux que tu grilles
    Chauffard, chauffard
    Tu vois le monde autour dans des brumes liquides
    Et c'est pour ça que tu cours toujours sur la voie rapide
    Chauffard, chauffard
    Tu dis que tu connais ton nom par cœur
    Et que tu préfères le son de ton moteur
    Que si jamais personne ne t'arrête
    T'iras te crasher sur le fond de la planète
    Et que tu vibres quand les virages s'avancent
    Et que la vitesse te laisse ta chance
    Et que t'es jamais aussi tranquille
    Que quand les bandes blanches défilent
    Chauffard, chauffard
    Tu vois le monde autour dans des brumes liquides
    Et c'est pour ça que tu cours toujours sur la voie rapide
    Tu vois le monde autour dans des brumes liquides
    Et c'est pour ça que tu cours toujours sur la voie rapide

    La nostra vita è un lampo
    prendimi se vuoi
    nudi e senza scampo
    balla insieme a noi
    Insieme a noi
    L'amore è un attimo fuggente
    guardami e non fermarti mai
    è un fiume chiaro
    fiume chiaro e trasparente come te

    If you said goodbye to me tonight
    There would still be music left to write
    What else could I do
    I'm so inspired by you
    That hasn't happened for the longest time

    Once I thought my innocence was gone
    Now I know that happiness goes on
    That's where you found me
    When you put your arms around me
    I haven't been there for the longest time

    Oh, oh, oh
    For the longest time
    Oh, oh, oh
    For the longest
    I'm that voice you're hearing in the hall
    And the greatest miracle of all
    Is how I need you
    And how you needed me too
    That hasn't happened for the longest time

    Maybe this won't last very long
    But you feel so right
    And I could be wrong
    Maybe I've been hoping too hard
    But I've gone this far
    And it's more than I hoped for

    Who knows how much further we'll go on
    Maybe I'll be sorry when you're gone
    I'll take my chances
    I forgot how nice romance is
    I haven't been there for the longest time

    I had second thoughts at the start
    I said to myself
    Hold on to your heart
    Now I know the woman that you are
    You're wonderful so far
    And it's more than I hoped for

    I don't care what consequence it brings
    I have been a fool for lesser things
    I want you so bad
    I think you ought to know that
    I intend to hold you for the longest time

    Ragged Old Flag
    Composer(s): John R. Cash
    Performer(s): Johnny Cash - 1974;
    and various other artists



    I walked through a county courthouse square
    On a park bench an old man was sitting there
    I said, "Your old courthouse is kinda run down"
    He said, "Naw, it'll do for our little town"
    I said, "Your old flagpole has leaned a little bit
    And that's a Ragged Old Flag you got hanging on it"

    He said, "Have a seat," and I sat down
    "Is this the first time you've been to our little town?"
    I said, "I think it is." He said, "I don't like to brag
    But we're kinda proud of that Ragged Old Flag

    "You see, we got a little hole in that flag there when
    Washington took it across the Delaware
    And it got powder-burned the night Francis Scott Key
    Sat watching it writing Say Can You See
    And it got a bad rip in New Orleans
    With Packingham and Jackson tuggin' at its seems

    "And it almost fell at the Alamo
    Beside the Texas flag, but she waved on though
    She got cut with a sword at Chancellorsville
    And she got cut again at Shiloh Hill
    There was Robert E. Lee, Beauregard, and Bragg
    And the south wind blew hard on that Ragged Old Flag

    "On Flanders Field in World War I
    She got a big hole from a Bertha gun
    She turned blood red in World War II
    She hung limp and low by the time it was through
    She was in Korea and Vietnam
    She was sent where she was by her Uncle Sam

    "She waved from our ships upon the briny foam
    And now they've about quit waving her back here at home
    In her own good land here she's been abused
    She's been burned, dishonored, denied, and refused

    "And the government for which she stands
    Is scandalized throughout the land
    And she's getting threadbare and wearing thin
    But she's in good shape for the shape she's in
    'Cause she's been through the fire before
    And I believe she can take a whole lot more

    "So we raise her up every morning, take her down every night
    We don't let her touch the ground and we fold her up right
    On second thought, I do like to brag
    'Cause I'm mighty proud of the Ragged Old Flag"

    The Long Way Around
    Composer(s): Ken Edwards
    Performer(s): Linda Ronstadt



    It's a cinch that I've been wrong
    And it's clear it's not been long
    Since I was hard on you
    But now a time has come
    When yesterday don't mean nothin'
    Now I'm in love with you
    And you've taken me the long way around

    Take a look how young we are
    A month has changed the moon and the stars
    Changing the things we do
    You've been lookin' for something strong
    When other things don't mean nothin'
    Now I'm in love with you
    And you've taken me the long way around

    Well I can't see beyond the doubt that's in your eye
    It's on the outskirts of my fading alibi

    It's a cinch that I've been wrong
    And it's clear it's not been long
    Since I was hard on you
    But now a time has come
    When yesterday don't mean nothin'
    Now I'm in love with you
    And you've taken me the long way around
    Now I'm in love with you
    And you've taken me the long way around

    Rage In The Cage
    Composer(s): Peter Wolf; Seth Justman
    Performer(s): The J. Geils Band



    Shopping Center crazy
    I need some fast relief
    The boss says, "Boy, you're lazy"
    But I'm just bored beyond belief
    Laid off since last summer
    Man, this really takes the cake
    This town is like a prison
    And I just got to make my break
    They say "Be cautious, little mister"
    They shove it down your throat
    I'm 'bout to choke - choke
    I'm nauseous - my transistor's 'bout the
    only antidote to keep my temperature
    from runnin' wild
    Let me hear that radio!
    Chorus
    There's a rage in the cage
    There's a rage in the cage
    Sweet Diana to the rescue
    Hot potato to my aid
    She's the girl with the swirl
    Like air-conditioned lemonade
    But the lady's on the hot-plate
    Daddy's threatened to disown
    Handcuffed tight in a chain of events
    I guess I'm out here on my own
    It don't take a PhD
    To know I'm goin' nowhere fast
    I've got to move - I'm on the move
    It don't take much to see
    This town is livin' in the past
    They all just seem to wanna tie me down
    Let me hear that radio!
    Chorus
    I wanna rock it
    I've got to rock it
    I've gotta get me on that rocket ship to outa here
    This town is wearin' ear plugs
    I'm of age and loose to juice
    But they say Stop! Stop!
    There's a fire in the furnace
    Breakin' out and breakin' loose
    You know I'm just about to lose my mind
    They don't want me paralyzed
    They just want me neutralized
    Chorus

    The Long Way
    Composer(s): Dan Fogelberg
    Performer(s): Dan Fogelberg



    She was lost
    And I thought I was found
    Even so I tried
    To bring her in...

    She was young
    And I had just begun
    To learn that even
    Losing men can win

    We went the long way
    We went the long way
    We went the long way...
    Or maybe just the wrong way
    I'll never know

    Overnight
    We were shown the light
    Neither of us knew
    To look away...
    So we burned
    And far too late we learned
    That lifetimes can't be lived out
    In a day

    We went the long way
    We went the long way
    We went the long way...
    Or maybe just the wrong way
    I'll never know

    So, goodbye
    At least me made the try
    Something can be said for
    love that's pure
    If and when
    We ever try again
    One thing will be known to us
    For sure...

    We'll go the long way
    We'll go the long way
    We'll go the long way...
    Or maybe just the wrong way
    I'll never know

    Chattanoogie Shoe-Shine Boy Composer(s): Jack Stapp - Harry Stone Performer(s): Red Foley and multiple other artists



    Have you ever passed the corner of Forth and Grand?
    Where a little ball o' rhythm has a shoe-shine stand
    People gather 'round and they clap their hands
    He's a great big bundle o' joy
    He pops the boogie woogie rag
    The Chattanoogie shoe-shine boy

    He charges you a nickel just to shine one shoe
    He makes the oldest kind o' leather look like new
    You feel as though you wanna dance when he gets through
    He's a great big bundle o' joy
    He pops the boogie woogie rag
    The Chattanoogie shoe-shine boy

    It's a wonder that the rag don't tear
    The way he makes it pop
    You ought to see him fan the air
    With his hoppity-hippity-hippity-hoppity-hoppity-hippity-hop

    He opens up for business when the clock strikes nine
    He likes to get up early when they're feelin' fine
    Everybody gets a little rise 'n shine
    With the great big bundle o' joy
    He pops the boogie woogie rag
    The Chattanoogie shoe-shine boy

    It's a wonder that the rag don't tear
    The way he makes it pop
    Just listen to him fan the air
    Here he goes!

    He opens up for business when the clock strikes nine
    He likes to get up early when they're feelin' fine
    Everybody gets a little rise 'n shine
    With the great big bundle o' joy
    He pops the boogie woogie rag
    The Chattanoogie shoe-shine boy

    The Chattanoogie shoe-shine boy
