Tout Le Monde Sait ((English Version: Everybody Knows (The Dave Clark Five)) Composer(s): Barry Mason - Leslie Reed - Hubert Ithier Performer(s): Dalida
Quand, je t'ai supplié de rester Tous les passants m'ont vu, pleurer Mais, pourquoi parler en cet endroit Où la foule Nous regarde toi et moi
Tout le monde sait que tu t'en vas Tout le monde voit mes pleurs On s'aimait si fort alors pourquoi Faire autant souffrir mon cur
J'ai crié partout mon bel amour J'avais confiance en toi, toujours Si, tous mes amis riaient de moi A cette heure Quand je pleure, ils sont là
Tout le monde sait que tu t'en vas Tout le monde voit mes pleurs On s'aimait si fort alors pourquoi Faire autant souffrir mon cur
Tout le monde sait que tu t'en vas Tout le monde voit mes pleurs On s'aimait si fort alors pourquoi Faire autant souffrir mon cur
Tout le monde sait que tu t'en vas Tout le monde voit mes pleurs On s'aimait si fort alors pourquoi Faire autant souffrir mon cur
Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)
Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In) Composer(s): Mickey Newbury Performer(s): Kenny Rogers
(Yeah, yeah, oh-yeah, what condition my condition was in)
I woke up this mornin' with the sundown shinin' in I found my mind in a brown paper bag within I tripped on a cloud and fell-a eight miles high I tore my mind on a jagged sky I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in
(Yeah, yeah, oh-yeah, what condition my condition was in)
I pushed my soul in a deep dark hole and then I followed it in I watched myself crawlin' out as I was a-crawlin' in I got up so tight I couldn't unwind I saw so much I broke my mind I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in
(Yeah, yeah, oh-yeah, what condition my condition was in)
Someone painted "April Fool" in big black letters on a "Dead End" sign I had my foot on the gas as I left the road and blew out my mind Eight miles outta Memphis and I got no spare Eight miles straight up downtown somewhere I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in
I said I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in Yeah yeah oh-yeah

Tout le monde rit d'un clown pourquoi pas toi Tout le monde aime bien les clowns pourquoi pas toi Si jamais, il arrivait qu'un jour Tu t'aperçoives enfin que pour toi, je meurs d'amour Tu saurais combien ce clown a pu souffrir Et tu le ferais rire Oui mais en attendant ce clown tu ne l'aimes pas Tout le monde rit d'un clown pourquoi pas toi Tout le monde rit d'un clown pourquoi pas toi Tout le monde rit d'un clown pourquoi pas toi Tout le monde rit d'un clown pourquoi pas toi

Il suffit qu'au piano avec un seul doigt je joue cet air là Ou qu'un violon le chante au fond d'une cour Alors je crois entendre tout un orchestre qui joue pour moi Car tout le monde a sa chanson d'amour
Les arbres de l'hiver se couvrent de fleurs le ciel devient bleu Comme si les oiseaux étaient de retour Et je crois nous revoir dansant tous les deux, riant tous les deux En écoutant notre chanson d'amour
Et pourtant je sais bien que tout est fini Depuis déjà bien longtemps Quelque fois le bonheur de toute une vie Ne dure qu'un printemps
Si cette mélodie fait battre le cur d'autres amoureux Pour eux je prie le ciel qu'ils s'aiment toujours Mais ne m'en veuillez pas si quand je l'entends j'ai des larmes aux yeux Car tout le monde a sa chanson d'amour

De Derde Straat Links Op Het Nummer 15 ((Adapted from: El Paso (Marty Robbins) - 1959)) Composer(s): Marty Robbins - Yvan Brunetti Performer(s): Wendy Van Wanten - 1996
Kort in de buurt waar je ouders nog woonden De derde straat links op het nummer vijftien Woonde een jongen, waar ik steeds van droomde Geen dag ging voorbij, of ik moest hem eens zien
Mijn eerste fiets raakte zo vlug versleten De weg langs zijn huis, had voor mij geen geheim Elke dag heb ik m'n rondjes gereden Dat kind met haar fiets, ik was nog zo klein
Ik deed echt alles voor een glimp van jou Elke dag wou ik je zien Ik heb wel duizenden brieven geschreven Daarvan heb jij er nooit eentje gezien Maar ik wist
Dat ik jou ooit zou vertellen wat mij heeft gedreven Men brieven wou geven, alleen maar voor jou Ik kocht zelfs kadootjes, wanneer je verjaarde Die heb ik bewaard tot de tijd komen zou
Ik deed echt alles voor een glimp van jou Elke dag wou ik je zien Ik heb wel duizenden brieven geschreven Daarvan heb jij er nooit eentje gezien En daarom
Geef ik jou nu al die brieven we zijn jaren later t'Is net alsof ik het gisteren schreef Ook je kadootjes zal ik nu maar geven Opdat je beseft hoeveel ik om je geef
Jij bent een man en ik ben nu een vrouwtje Wij zijn al jaren geen kinderen meer
Ik deed echt alles voor een glimp van jou Elke dag wou ik je zien Ik heb wel duizenden brieven geschreven Daarvan heb jij er nooit eentje gezien Dus ook jij
Hebt al die jaren gedroomd tot ik van je zou houden Met je zou trouwen voor altijd je vrouw En ook je auto ligt vol met kadootjes Waarop staat geschreven, ik hou zo van jou
We leven in 't huis waar je ouders toen woonden De derde straat links op het nummer vijftien En dadelijk schrijdt daar een heel lief klein meisje Ons schatje loopt buiten, want hij wil haar zien

Just Beyond The Moon Composer(s): Jeremy Slate Performer(s): Tex Ritter
(I'll walk just beyond the moon Where I'll stop and wait for you)
(Spoken) My mother and my father were in love for fifty years So when Dad died, we wondered why my Mother shed no tears We asked her once about it, but she wouldn't tell us why Instead she'd walk outside each night and smile up at the sky Then just before she left us, she called us to her side She told us what my father said to her, just before he died
(Singing) I remember when you said you'd never leave me Through these golden years I've kept the same vow, too But now that I am going, please don't leave me I'll walk just beyond the moon, then I'll stop and wait for you
You can look up every night, and you'll see me light the lights Where I'll watch for you to join me some day soon We'll go looking through the stars, for the Heaven that is ours And I know we'll find it soon, somewhere just beyond the moon
(I'll walk just beyond the moon Where I'll stop and wait for you)
I'll just sit there by a star, and I'll watch you from afar Till I see you walking toward me some day soon Then together hand-in-hand, we'll find our Promised Land And we'll settle down forever, darling, just beyond the moon
(I'll walk just beyond the moon Where I'll stop and wait for you)

Comme le tam-tam qui résonne Dans la jungle sombre, au lion Comme le tic-tac monotone Qui le temps marque le point Comme cette pluie obsédante Qui s'acharne sur toit Sans arrêt ce rêve fou Me hante-toi, toi, toi
Tout le jour, toute la nuit Rien que toi, toujours, toujours J'en suis éblouie Que tu sois au loin, qu'importe Puisqu'en moi tendrement Je t'emporte Oh, mon amour Nuit et jour Sans répit Le jour la nuit Le désir comme un démon Me hante et me poursuit Dans le tourbillon du monde La solitude profonde Je suis à toi, rien qu'a toi
Nuit et jour Au plus profond de moi Un feu brûle qui me consume Et ne brûle que pour toi Mon tourment ne finira Que quand tu me permettras de t'aimer De t'aimer toujours Nuit et jour Nuit et jour

Just Because I'm A Woman Composer(s): Dolly Parton Performer(s): Dolly Parton
I can see you're disappointed By the way you look at me And I'm sorry that I'm not The woman you thought I'd be Yes, I've made my mistakes But listen and understand My mistakes are no worse than yours Just because I'm a woman
So when you look at me Don't feel sorry for yourself Just think of all the shame You might have brought somebody else
Just let me tell you this Then we'll both know where we stand My mistakes are no worse than yours Just because I'm a woman
Now a man will take a good girl And he'll ruin her reputation But when he wants to marry Well, that's a different situation
He'll just walk off and leave her To do the best she can While he looks for an angel To wear his wedding band
Now I know that I'm no angel If that's what you thought you'd found I was just the victum of A man that let me down
Yes, I've made my mistakes But listen and understand My mistakes are no worse than yours Just because I'm a woman
No, my mistakes are no worse than yours Just because I'm a woman

Tout l'amour que j'ai pour toi Est plus fort chaque jour Je crois bien qu'il durera Pour la vie, pour toujours Quelle obsession, que ma passion Je dis non Tout bas, tout bas Au moindre bruit de tes pas Mon cur bat, mon cur bat
Je veux crier au monde entier Que rien ne peut nous séparer Tout l'amour que j'ai pour toi C'est vraiment, tout pour moi...

I Love The Whole United States Composer(s): Roger Lewis; Ernie Erdman
A soldier from the South and a soldier from the North who fought each other back in sixty-two Met on the street one day one wore a suit of grey The other wore a tattered suit of blue One said he loved the South the best the other said the North They argued till the tears came to their eyes But Dixie's son, a boy in blue said Gentlemen the war is through So love the flag no matter where it flies
The soldier from the North and the soldier from the South were listening to the soldier boy in blue They shook each other's hand, and seemed to understand That they should love old Uncle Sammy too They marched together down the street as comrades ought to do The war is over and they were satisfied And Dixie's son, the boy in blue at last was mighty happy too And to himself again he softly sighed
I love the whole United States from Boston Massachusetts to Frisco's golden gates the cotton fields of Dixie the Maple trees of Maine the mountains of Virginia I love them all the same I love the fields of Illinois and Georgia where my sweetheart waits every city large and small in Yankeeland I love them all I love the whole United States
