Verliebt In Dich Composer(s): Cheyenne Stone First performance by: Stone & Stone - 1995
Manchmal, wenn ich ratlos bin Und mein Glaube sich verirrt Tief in mir die Trauer brennt Jage nur hinter Träumen her Ist mein Leben endlos leer? Finde keinen Frieden mehr Sehnsucht schreit, Geborgenheit Doch du bist da neben mir
Hey!
Kennst du das Gefühl? Du bist allein und die Seele friert Mensch sein ist so schwer Traue Deinem Engel tief in dir Glaub' mir, ich steh' zu dir Du allein bist der Grund dafür Ich fühle dich nah, so nah bei mir Fängst alle meine Tränen auf
Oh Lord, bin verliebt in dich Kann mich nicht wehren, nicht zu erklären Was zwischen Himmel und Erde geschieht Oh Lord, bin verliebt in dich Kann mich nicht wehren, nicht zu erklären Erinnerung bleibt und erzählt von dir Allein du bist der Grund dafür
Angst, ich lass dich weiter ziehen Hab' dich oft genug erkannt Ich weiß, mir kann jetzt nichts passieren Trage ein Herz voll Licht in mir Stille Nacht, ich traue dir Für mich gibt es keine Zweifel mehr Kann dich niemals mehr verlieren Ein Traum wird wahr, nur mit dir
Oh Lord, bin verliebt in dich Kann mich nicht wehren, nicht zu erklären Was zwischen Himmel und Erde geschieht Oh Lord, bin verliebt in dich Kann mich nicht wehren, nicht zu erklären Erinnerung bleibt und erzählt von dir Allein du bist der Grund dafür
Du kannst meine Seele sehen All das Licht in ihr gehört nur dir
Oh... bin verliebt in dich Kann mich nicht wehren, nicht zu erklären Was zwischen Himmel und Erde geschieht Bin so verliebt in dich Bin so verliebt in dich
Purple Rain Composer(s): Prince Performer(s): Prince
I never meant 2 cause u any sorrow I never meant 2 cause u any pain I only wanted 2 one time see u laughing I only wanted 2 see u laughing in the purple rain
I never wanted 2 be your weekend lover I only wanted 2 be some kind of friend Baby I could never steal u from another It's such a shame our friendship had 2 end
Honey I know, I know, I know times are changing It's time we all reach out 4 something new That means u 2 U say u want a leader But u can't seem 2 make up your mind I think u better close it And let me guide u 2 the purple rain
Purple rain Purple rain Purple rain Purple rain
If you know what I'm singing about up here C'mon raise your hand
Purple rain Purple rain
I only want 2 see u, only want 2 see u In the purple rain
Song To A Seagull Composer(s): Joni Mitchell Performer(s): Buffy Sainte-Marie - 1967 and multiple other artists
Fly silly seabird No dreams can possess you No voices can blame you For sun on your wings My gentle relations Have names they must call me For loving the freedom Of all flying things My dreams with the seagulls fly Out of reach out of cry
I came to the city And lived like old Crusoe On an island of noise In a cobblestone sea And the beaches were concrete And the stars paid a light bill And the blossoms hung false On their store window trees My dreams with the seagulls fly Out of reach out of cry
Out of the city And down to the seaside To sun on my shoulders And wind in my hair But sandcastles crumble And hunger is human And humans are hungry For worlds they can't share My dreams with the seagulls fly Out of reach out of cry
I call to a seagull Who dives to the waters And catches his silver-fine Dinner alone Crying where are the footprints That danced on these beaches And the hands that cast wishes That sunk like a stone My dreams with the seagulls fly Out of reach out of cry
Dreamin' Composer(s): Richard Abbot - Barry Woods
First performance by: Eddie Friel - 1995
Dreamin' Dreamin' on a silver sea of moonlight Magic fills the night Melodies alight, when I'm dreamin'
Dreamin' Dreamin' how I love this nowhere feelin' Round and round I go Shadows soft and low, when I'm dreamin'
You can sail on any ocean Dream an easy melody Moonlight magic shines so gently Moonlight magic harmony
Night time slips away in silence (Dreamin') And daylight steals across my silver sea And goodbye dreamin' in the moonlight (Goodbye) Sleepy wake up to reality
Lalala... Lala lala lala lala lalala... Lala la lala... Underneath the stars, dreamin'
Far away a blue horizon Driftin' on the midnight sea Moonlight magic shines so gently Moonlight magic harmony
(Dreamin') (Lala lala lala lala lalala...) Sleepy wake up to reality (Dreamin')

Pure Jam Composer(s): Peter Barakan; Yukihiro Takahashi Performer(s): Yellow Magic Orchestra
This must be the ugliest piece of bread I've ever eaten Wrapped in a foil-like substance It's an unidentified object Shapelessly square God it's so ugly (Jam desho) I wonder why Maybe the answer lies (Sore jam desho, dozo) In the thickness or the size

Versions In Other Languages: 1958 - Croque-Crane-Creux (Gabriel Dalar) 1960 - Lille Lilla Lemmedasker (Lily Broberg)
Well I saw the thing comin out of the sky It had the one long horn, one big eye I commenced to shakin' and I said "ooh-eee" It looks like a purple eater to me
It was a one eyed, one horned, flyin' purple people eater One eyed, one horned, flyin' purple people eater A one eyed, one horned, flyin' purple people eater Sure looks strange to me {one eye}
Well he came down to earth and he lit in a tree I said Mr. purple people eater, don't eat me I heard him say in a voice so gruff I wouldn't eat you cuz you're so tough
It was a one eyed, one horned, flyin' purple people eater One eyed, one horned flyin' purple people eater One eyed, one horned, flyin' purple people eater Sure looks strange to me {one horn}
I said Mr. purple people eater, what's your line? He said it's eatin' purple people and it sure is fine But that's not the reason that I came to land I wanna get a job in a rock and roll band
Well bless my soul, rock and roll, flyin' purple people eater Pigeon toed, undergrowed, flyin' purple people eater We wear short shorts flyin' purple people eater Sure looks strange to me
And then he swung from the tree and he lit on the ground He started to rock, really rockin' around It was a crazy ditty with a swingin' tune Sing a boop boop aboopa lopa lum lum boom
Well bless my soul flyin' purple people eater Pigeon toed, undergrowed, flyin' purple people eater I like short shorts flyin' little people eater Sure looks strange to me purple people
Then he went on his way, and then what do you know? I saw him last night on a tv show He was blowing it out, a really knockin' them dead playin' rock and roll music through the horn on his head
Song On The Sand Composer(s): Jerry Herman Performer(s): Elisabeth Welch
Do you recall that beach we walked along that afternoon in fall That afternoon we met? A fellow with a concertina sang what was the song? It is strange what we recall and how what we forget
I heard la-da-da-da, la-da-da-da as we walked on the sand La-da-da-da I believe it was early September Through the crash of the waves I could tell that the words were romantic Something about sharing, something about always Though the years race along, I still think of our song of the sand And I still try and search for the words I can barely remember Though the time tumbles by, there is one thing that I am forever certain of I hear la-da-da-da-da And I am young and in love
Da-da-da, da-da-da, as we walked on the sand I heard
La-da-da-da I believe it was early September Through the crash of the waves I could tell that the words were romantic Something about sharing, something about always Though the years race along, I still think of our song of the sand And I still try and search for the words I can barely remember Though the time tumbles by, there is one thing that I am forever certain of I hear la-da-da-da-da And I am young and in love
Puppet On A String
(Danish Version: Lille Marionet - 1967)
Composer(s): William Wylie MacPherson Martin; Phil Coulter
First release by: Sandie Shaw - 1967
I wonder if one day that You'll say that you care If you say you love me madly I'll gladly be there Like a puppet on a string
Love is just like a merry-go-round With all the fun of the fair One day I'm feeling down on the ground Then I'm up in the air Are you leading me on? Tomorrow, will you be gone?
I wonder if one day that You'll say that you care If you say you love me madly I'll gladly be there Like a puppet on a string
I may win on the roundabouts But then I'll lose on the swings In or out, there is never a doubt Just who's pulling the strings I'm so tied up in you But where's it leading me to?
I wonder if one day that You'll say that you care If you say you love me madly I'll gladly be there Like a puppet on a string
I wonder if one day that You'll say that you care If you say you love me madly I'll gladly be there Like a puppet on a string
