I Can't Close The Book Composer(s): Sammy Gallop; Ben Weisman Performer(s): Vic Damone
I try to forget you and yet you are everywhere that I look The story is over all over but I can't close the book Must I hear your laughter hereafter in every whispering brook Although it was splendid it ended but I can't close the book
The chapter had to finish it's time to turn the page But the flame just won't diminish when a heart won't act it's age So if you should see me so dreamy excuse the faraway look The story is over all over but I can't close the book
But the flame just won't diminish when a heart won't act it's age So if you should see me so dreamy excuse the faraway look The story is over all over but I can't close the book
Put the light in the window my darling she said As she gazed at the dark stormy night over head A little girl ran with an eager delight As she placed in the window the tiny red light
Her father came home from his work wet and cold Angry and cross cause his fish were not sold He said that the oil it must do for the night So he took from the window the tiny red light
Father dear father don't take it away Think of the poor sailors far out on the bay If he could have seen what had happened that night That could have been saved by the tiny red light
Early next morning came a knock on the door A sailor stood pointing far out on the shore Three tiny ships went a drift in the gale With tears in his eyes told her father this tale
We followed your tiny red light said the man Till it vanished from sight on the rocks our ships ran Many were drowned on the billows last night That might have been saved by the tiny red light That could have been saved by the tiny red light
I Can't Believe That You're In Love With Me Composer(s): Clarence Gaskill; Jimmy McHugh Performer(s): Billie Holiday and multiple other artists
Yesterday you came my way And when you smiled at me In my heart I felt a thrill, you see That it was love at sight And I was right to love you as I do Still I never dreamed that you could love me too
Your eyes of blue Your kisses too I never knew what they could do I can't believe that you're in love with me
You're telling everyone I know I'm on your mind each place you go They can't believe that you're in love with me
I have always placed you far above me I just can't imagine that you love me And after all is said and done To think that I'm the lucky one I can't believe that you're in love with me
Skies are gray I'm blue each day when you are not around Ev'rything goes wrong, my dear, I've found But when you're by my side I fill with pride For I'm so proud of you It all seems too good to me to all be true
Your eyes of blue Your kisses too I never knew what they could do I can't believe that you're in love with me
You're telling everyone I know I'm on your mind each place you go They can't believe that you're in love with me
I have always placed you far above me I just can't imagine that you love me And after all is said and done To think that I'm the lucky one I can't believe that you're in love with me
Je T'Aime Comme Ça Composer(s): Charles Aznavour Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Tu es toute ma vie Je ne sais pas pourquoi Tu n'es pas très jolie Mais je t'aime comme ça Tes joies sont enfantines Tes gestes maladroits T'as l'air d'une gamine Mais je t'aime comme ça Tu cries sans raison Tu mens avec aplomb Et me donnes des noms Insensés Qui font rire mes amis Et lorsque je te dis Que tout cela un jour doit changer Tu te mets à pleurer Moi pour te consoler
Dans mes bras je t'emporte Et blottie contre moi C'est bien toi la plus forte Mais je t'aime comme ça Mes yeux sont pleins de larmes Comment expliquer ça Tout en toi me désarme Mais je t'aime comme ça Tu as des défauts Souvent tu parles trop Et quand je suis par trop Excédé Je m'écrie ça suffit Mais lorsque tu souris Avec un regard désemparé Devant ton air perdu Je me sens tout ému
Tu es toute ma vie Je ne sais pas pourquoi Tu n'es pas très jolie Mais je t'aime comme ça

I Can't Believe I'm Losing You Composer(s): Phil Zeller; Don Costa Performer(s): Frank Sinatra; Jack Jones; Michele Lee
Is this the way our romance ends I got the message when you said we could be friends My love was true, I can't believe I'm losing you We played a game, of give and take But I stopped playing when my heart began to break What can I do, I can't believe I'm losing you Wish I could erase every little phase of love that's in the heart of me Every little dream, every little theme, will always be a part of me There's nothing left for me to do We've passed the point of no return, and now we're through It's still too new, I can't believe I'm losing you It's still too new, I can't believe I'm losing you
Je T'Aime Ça Veut Dire Aime-Moi Composer(s): Pierre Delanoë; Yves Gilbert Performer(s): Dalida
On en peut pas donner toujours
sans recevoir de temps en temps Et le dialogue avec un sourd à la longue c'est fatigant Je te réchauffe mais j'ai froid Je t'aime ça veut dire aime-moi
Pour que je te fasse la belle tu me jettes un os en passant Tu veux que je te sois fidèle tu es aux amoureux absent Tu m'oublies trente jours par mois Je t'aime ça veut dire aime-moi
Autrefois dans ton grand château j'aurais attendu patiemment Que le guerrier vienne au repos tu t'es trompé de cinq cent ans Pour te battre viens donc chez moi Je t'aime ça veut dire aime-moi
Je ne suis pas un pur esprit je n'ai pas prononcé mes vux J'ai le sang chaud de mon pays je veux t'aimer quand je le veux Je ne te le répéterais pas Je t'aime ça veut dire aime-moi
Un sourire en forme d'espoir un mot qui parle de nous deux Un geste tendre d'aurevoir un coup d'il au fond de mes yeux Voilà ce que j'attend de toi Je t'aime ça veut dire aime-moi Voilà ce que j'attend de toi Je t'aime ça veut dire aime-moi
Tiny Dancer Composer(s): Elton John - Bernie Taupin First release by: Elton John - 1971 Covered by multiple other artists
Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'll marry a music man Ballerina, you must have seen her dancing in the sand And now she's in me, always with me, tiny dancer in my hand
Jesus freaks out in the street Handing tickets out for God Turning back she just laughs The boulevard is not that bad
Piano man he makes his stand In the auditorium Looking on she sings the songs The words she knows, the tune she hums
But oh how it feels so real Lying here with no one near Only you and you can hear me When I say softly, slowly
Hold me closer tiny dancer Count the headlights on the highway Lay me down in sheets of linen you had a busy day today
Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'll marry a music man Ballerina, you must have seen her dancing in the sand And now she's in me, always with me, tiny dancer in my hand
I Can't Begin To Tell You Composer(s): Mack Gordon; James V. Monaco Performer(s): Bing Crosby and multiple other artists
I can't begin to tell you, how much you mean to me My world would end, if ever we were through I can't begin to tell you, how happy I would be If I could speak my mind, like other's do
I make such pretty speeches Whenever we're apart But when you're near the words I choose Refuse to leave my heart
So, take the sweetest phrases (love songs) The world has ever known And make believe, I've said them (sung them) all to you
Je T'Aime Avec Ma Peau Composer(s): C. Desage; Francis Lai Performer(s): Mireille Mathieu
La liberté c'était ma vie C'était aussi ma solitude On s'est aimés je t'ai suivi J'ai partagé tes habitudes C'est difficile un grand amour Il y a des heures d'incertitude La jalousie nous tourne autour Et j'ai perdu ma solitude
{Refrain:} Je t'aime avec mon coeur Je t'aime avec ma peau Je t'aime avec ma peur C'est vrai je t'aime trop Je t'aime avec ma peine Cachée au fond de moi Je t'aime avec ma haine Qu'un jour tu connaîtras Je t'aime avec mon coeur Je t'aime avec ma peau Je t'aime avec ma peur C'est vrai je t'aime trop Le diable et le Bon Dieu Peuvent dormir tranquilles L'enfer c'est d'être deux Et le ciel est fragile
Toi le bonheur t'ennuie déjà Tu veux gagner d'autres batailles Tu es déjà trop sûr de moi L'amour n'est rien qu'un feu de paille Tes yeux sont gris quand tu t'ennuie Tu me regardes avec tendresse Mais je dors seule avec la nuit Et j'ai besoin de tes caresses
Tiny bubbles in the wine Make me happy, make me feel fine Tiny bubbles make me warm all over With a feeling that I'm gonna Love you 'til the end of time
So here's to the golden moon And here's to the silver sea But most of all a toast to you and me
Tiny bubbles in the wine Make me happy, make me feel fine Tiny bubbles make me warm all over With a feeling that I'm gonna Love you 'til the end of time
So here's to the ginger lei I give to you today And here's a kiss that will not fade away
Tiny bubbles in the wine Make me happy, make me feel fine Tiny bubbles make me warm all over With a feeling that I'm gonna Love you 'til the end of time
I Cannot Believe It's True Composer(s): Phil Collins Performer(s): Phil Collins
When I opened your letter yesterday I could not believe my eyes 'Cos I've already given all I have to give And I think it must have slipped your mind But I remember not so long ago I gave it all, it's gone And I gave it all to you Now I'm living on borrowed time, but it's mine
Oh, d'you hear me? I cannot believe it's true Are you really doing the things you do No I cannot believe it's you, really you
Oh these people I'm talking to don't understand They don't seem to realize They're listening but they're not hearing me They're being too cruel to be kind Any kind of feeling that I had is gone 'Cos I gave it all, it's gone And I gave it all to you Now I'm living on borrowed time, but it's mine
Oh, d'you hear me? I cannot believe it's true Are you really doing the things you do No I cannot believe it's you, really you
Over and over I keep on telling myself Over and over I hope I'm gonna make up Over and over I know it's really happening And there's nothing that I can say 'Cos nothing can change all the things that you've done to me Nothing can make me stay
Oh, 'cos you know I cannot believe it's true Are you really doing the things you do No I cannot believe it's you, really you
I know it's a crying shame, it's all the same to you It seems all so well laid out but I cannot get through Never meant it to show It started happening, that's all you know
Oh, I gave it all to you Now I'm living on borrowed time, but it's mine
Oh, d'you hear me? I cannot believe it's true Are you really doing the things you do No I cannot believe it's you, really you
Over and over I keep on telling myself Over and over I Hope I'm gonna make up But over and over I know it's really happening And there's nothing that I can say 'Cos nothing can change all the things that you do to me Nothing can make me stay
'Cos you know I cannot believe it's true Are you really doing the things you do No I cannot believe it's you, really you
Je T'Aime A.I.M.E. Composer(s): Charles Aznavour Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Je t'écris c'est plus romantique Comme un amant du temps jadis Sur un papier couleur de lys A l'encre bleue, et je m'applique Quand ma plume, manque de chance Fait en sortant de l'encrier Une tache sur le papier Que je déchire et recommence
Je t'aime A.I.M.E. T'aime le cur en feu Faut-il un X à feu? Ça me pose un problème Allez je barre feu Mais je garde je t'aime Je t'aime A.I.M.E. Simplement j'y ajoute Ces mots "A la folie" Mais soudain j'ai un doute Folie avec un L Un seul L ou bien deux? Deux ailes serait mieux
Tellement plus jolies Et bien sûr plus vivant Vivant, comme une envie Que le bonheur agrafe Comme un papillon bleu Au cur d'un amoureux Inquiet de l'orthographe
A l'école j'étais le cancre Dont on ne pouvait rien tirer Guettant l'heure de la récré L'il fixe et les doigts tachés d'encre Aujourd'hui je me désespère J'ai des lacunes et je le sais Mais amoureux il me vient des Velléités épistolaires
Je t'aime A.I.M.E. Et je n'ai foi qu'en toi Comment écrire foi Privé d'un dictionnaire Il y a tant de fois Dans le vocabulaire Je peine et je m'en veux Allez je place un S Mieux vaut peut-être un E Franchement ça me stresse Et mon foie fait des nuds Des heures d'affilée Penché sur le papier
Je corrige et rature Puis j'envoie tout valser Maudissant l'écriture Ecuré j'abandonne Au diable mon stylo Je dirais tous ces mots Tranquille au téléphone Je prends le combiné Compose un numéro Je n'ai plus de problèmes Allo, amour, allo Oui oui c'est encore moi Pour la énième fois Qui t'appelle, tu vois Pour te dire: "Je t'aime"
Tingaleo, run little donkey, run Tingaleo, run little donkey, run
My donkey walk, my donkey talk My donkey eat with a knife and fork My donkey eat with a knife and fork Tingaleo, run little donkey, run Tingaleo, run little donkey, run
My donkey jump, my donkey spin My donkey play on the violin My donkey play on the violin Tingaleo, run little donkey, run Tingaleo, run little donkey, run
My donkey read, my donkey write My donkey sleep in the hay at night My donkey sleep in the hay at night Tingaleo, run little donkey, run Tingaleo, run little donkey, run
Tingaleo, where are you, my little donkey? Oh, there you are -- but what's this confetti all Over your mane -- have you been to another party? Why didn't you tell me? Oh, I was fast asleep... But what's this you've brought me -- a cupcake? What a sweet little donkey you are! Tingaleo...

I can tell because it's plain to see I can tell the way you look at me The way you know, you hold my hand Yes, pretty baby I can understand I can tell, I can tell I know you don't love me no more
