Il Me Donne Rendez-Vous Composer(s): Didier Barbelivien - François Bernheim First performance by: Nathalie Santamaria - 1995
C'est trois bouquets de fleurs À la porte de la maison Un poème qu'il m'écrit Comme des paroles de chanson
Sa voix au répondeur Vers les quatre heures du matin Qui me dit "Mon p'tit cur Je vous embrasse, tout va bien"
Je l'attends un peu comme le voleur Attend son heure J'ai idée que cet homme est un chat Ou un charmeur
Il me donne rendez-vous Souvent il me dit vous Vous permettez, mam'zelle De pendre à votre cou Un baiser, un bijou Quelque chose d'éternel
Il me donne rendez-vous Alors je vous l'avoue J'me sens pousser des ailes Et l'Bon Dieu est jaloux De cet ange un peu fou Qui me fait croire au ciel
Il me donne rendez-vous Comme il donnerait sa vie J'avais jamais dit vous À personne avant lui
C'est deux billets d'avion Direction les Iles Marquises Parce que j'avais dit non À New York et à Venise
C'est une grande limousine Garée au bas d' l'ascenseur Il est capable en prime De s'déguiser en chauffeur
Il est un peu dandy, un peu voyou Un peu dingue Et moi j'suis comme on dit la chanteuse De son bastringue
Il me donne rendez-vous Souvent il me dit vous Vous permettez, mam'zelle De pendre à votre cou Un baiser, un bijou Quelque chose d'éternel
Il me donne rendez-vous Alors je vous l'avoue J'me sens pousser des ailes Et l'Bon Dieu est jaloux De cet ange un peu fou Qui me fait croire au ciel
Il me donne rendez-vous Comme il donnerait sa vie J'avais jamais dit vous À personne avant lui
Il me donne rendez-vous Souvent il me dit vous Vous permettez, mam'zelle De pendre à votre cou Un baiser, un bijou Quelque chose d'éternel
Il me donne rendez-vous Alors je vous l'avoue J'me sens pousser des ailes Et l'Bon Dieu est jaloux De cet ange un peu fou Qui me fait croire au ciel Qui me fait croire au ciel
Songbird Composer(s): Steve Nelson - David Wolfert Performer(s): Barbra Streisand
Songbird sings from the heart Each word can tear you apart I sing you sing along You find your life in my song When you need the strength to carry on You've got me to turn to With the songs that I sing And the magic they bring They've helped you be strong now The song sets you free But who sings for me I'm all alone now Who sings for songbird
Sometimes when I'm all alone I sing my saddest song Lonely and no one can see This time the song is for me I can touch your secret place inside And still you don't know me With the songs that I sing And the magic they bring You've learned to be strong now My song sets you free But who sings for me I'm all alone now Where is my songbird Where is my songbird Who sings his songs for me
Vuelve Conmigo First performance by: Anabel Conde - 1995
He sentido el vacío Y un recuerdo dormido vuelve a despertar No te tengo conmigo Y me hiere por dentro tanta soledad ¿Quién sabe dónde estás? ¿Quién sabe dónde estás?
Ven, ven, vuelve conmigo Ven, ven, que necesito tu amor Ven, yo no te olvido Vuelve conmigo, mi amor
Nada queda en el alma Solamente esa llama que no morirá Que me quema en el pecho Cuando, sola en mi lecho Siento que no estás Me tienes que escuchar Me tienes que escuchar
Ven, ven, vuelve conmigo Ven, ven, que necesito tu amor Ven, vuelve conmigo Dale a este invierno calor
Ven, ven, vuelve conmigo Ven, ven, ya te he pedido perdón (Ven) Ven, yo no te olvido Vuelve conmigo, mi amor
Ooohh... (Ven, ven, vuelve conmigo) (Ven, ven, que necesito tu amor) Ven, ven, ven (Ven, ven, vuelve conmigo) (Dale a este invierno calor) Oh, yeah, yeah
Ven, ven, vuelve conmigo Ven, ven, ya te he pedido perdón (Ven) Ven, yo no te olvido Vuelve conmigo, mi amor
Put It There Pal Composer(s): Johnny Burke; Jimmy Van Heusen Performer(s): Bing Crosby & Bob Hope
I don't care where I'm goin' Just as long as I'm with you Put it there, pal Put it there
I'll be just like your horses And I'll stick to you like glue Put it there, pal Put it there
I'm glad you're fooling Pepsodent (oh, that happy snow) Stealing all that cash I hear your show on Thursdays (nice, huh?) What a lot of eggs you smash
Well at least I don't depend upon Colonna's big moustache (oh, he gave me the brush) You're faithful and you're fair Put it there (skin me Dad, skin me)
You've got that something in your voice So right for selling cheese (hustle a lot of the stuff) Put it there, pal Put it there (put that back in the bowl)
You know, I think your jokes are great (really?) It's just that folks are hard to please (they're just snobs, that all) Put it there, pal Put it there
Your face could make a fortune Just your nose should make a lot (how do you siphon?) I like the way you wear those gaudy-colored shirts you've got, boy! The only time a rainbow ever covered up a pot You're such a perfect square (oh-oh, is that on the paper?) (where?, where?)
Shall we dance? Sorry, I have my heavy underwear on Oh, just to once around, to the adrenalin, huh? Well, OK, if I lead
My colleague, my crony, my cohort, my friend Companions, confederates, chums to the end Like meat and potatoes, or salt and tomatoes Boy, what a blend
Don't put it in the paper (don't worry about me) Don't put it on the air (I'll finish it) Don't put it in your pipe Put it there
Confidentially, do you like this as well as singing? Leave your name with the girl when you go out We may get to you for some crowd noises Be sure and call me All right

Put 'Em In A Box, Tie 'Em With A Ribbon Composer(s): Sammy Cahn; Jule Styne Performer(s): Doris Day; and various other artists
You can take the moon Gather up the stars And the robins that sing merrily Put 'em in a box Tie Iem with a ribbon Throw 'em in the deep blue sea
You can take the flowers Down in lovers lane And that sentimental poetry Put 'em in a box Tie Iem with a ribbon Throw 'em in the deep blue sea

You can take the plans And the wedding bells And whoever sings "Oh Promise Me" Put 'em in a box Tie Iem with a ribbon Throw 'em in the deep blue sea 'Cause love and I we don't agree
Hansoms through the park Kisses in the dark And the promises made faithfully Put 'em in a box Tie em with a ribbon Throw 'em in the deep blue sea
And you won't go wrong If you take a song Sung by Frankie Boy or Mr. C Put 'em in a box Tie em with a ribbon Throw 'em in the deep blue sea
Not for me, all that stuff The dreams that ruin your sleep Not for me, had enough Love is one thing you can keep
You know what to do With old "Tea for Two" And the girl for you, the boy for me Put 'em in a box Tie em with a ribbon Throw 'em in the deep blue sea 'Cause love and I we don't agree
Die Welt Dreht Sich Verkehrt First performance: Stella Jones - 1995
Das Leben wirft mich aus der Bahn Wenn du mich ansiehst Und dann deine Hand mich berührt Es macht sich auf und davon, von dem Moment an In dem dein Kuß mich verführt
Jede Norm ist mir egal Und der Wahnsinn wird normal
Die alte Welt dreht sich verkehrt Wird federleicht, und schwebt davon Gold und Platin sind nichts mehr wert Ich bin Millionär, wenn ich bei dir bin Lachen und Weinen vereint
Komm' mach aus mir einen Clown Du Akrobat ohne Seil Fliegt mit mir durch die Zeit Ein Haus aus Tagträumen bauen Wahrheit oder Betrug Kein Problem weit und breit
Jede Norm ist mir egal Und der Wahnsinn wird normal Wird normal...
(Die alte Welt dreht sich verkehrt) Wird federleicht, und schwebt davon Gold und Platin sind nichts mehr wert Ich bin Millionär, und leb' davon
Die alte Welt dreht sich verkehrt Wird federleicht Wenn ich bei dir bin Lachen und Weinen vereint

Song To The Siren Composer(s): Larry Beckett - Tim Buckley First release by: Tim Buckley - 1971 Covered by multiple other artists
Long afloat on shipless oceans I did all my best to smile 'Til your singing eyes and fingers Drew me loving to your isle And you sang Sail to me Sail to me Let me enfold you Here I am Here I am Waiting to hold you
Did I dream you dreamed about me? Were you hare when I was fox? Now my foolish boat is leaning Broken lovelorn on your rocks, For you sing, "Touch me not, touch me not, come back tomorrow O my heart, O my heart shies from the sorrow"
I am puzzled as the newborn child I am troubled at the tide Should I stand amid the breakers? Should I lie with Death my bride? Hear me sing, "Swim to me, Swim to me, Let me enfold you Here I am, Here I am, Waiting to hold you"

Purple Robe Composer(s): Odell McLeod Performer(s): The Stanley Brothers; and various other artists
There's a story so unkind in the Holy book we find And it tells how Jesus stood alone one day False accused and there condemned yet they found no fault with Him The man who wore the scarlet purple robe
Purple robe my Savior wore oh the shame for me he bore As He stood alone, forsaken on that day And they placed upon His head piercing thorns and blood stained red His raiment was a scarlet purple robe
In the common judgment hall he was mocked and scorned by all And a tear of sorrow fell upon His cheek Soldiers of the wicked man smote Him with their evil hand The Man who wore the scarlet purple robe
Words of truth that day were plain from the lips of Pilot came In this man I find no reason He should die But the multitudes replied let Him now be crucified The man who wore the scarlet purple robe
Oh the River Of Jordan is many miles away And this mighty river I may never see But I'll find myself an alter in an old fashioned church And my River Of Jordan that will be
