Speak softly, love and hold me warm against your heart I feel your words, the tender trembling moments start We're in a world, our very own Sharing a love that only few have ever known
Wine-coloured days warmed by the sun Deep velvet nights when we are one
Speak softly, love so no one hears us but the sky The vows of love we make will live until we die My life is yours and all because You came into my world with love so softly love
Wine-coloured days warmed by the sun Deep velvet nights when we are one
Speak softly, love so no one hears us but the sky The vows of love we make will live until we die My life is yours and all because You came into my world with love so softly love
Heaven Sent You, I Know Composer(s): Vernon Bullock; Sylvia Moy; William "Mickey" Stevenson Performer(s): Marvin Gaye

Her: Every night I say a prayer Before I go to sleep Suddenly you were there Your face so fine, your voice so sweet In these arms of mine I found you just in time In this turn of the world I was a lost and lonely girl But then a miracle happened; Heaven must have sent you, I know (Yes I know) I know (yes I know)
Him: Funny how my empty heart Used to feel like a heavy load Suddenly you were there Like a friend on a lonesome road Right into these arms of mine I found you, I found you just in time 'Cause I was a lonely man Holding out my helpless hand Then a miracle happened Heaven must have sent you, I know (Yes I know)
Both: Our time is here now Now matter how the world is around In your arms I find Some kind of love and peace of mind 'Cause a miracle happened; Heaven must have sent you, I know (Yes I know)

Estoy sintiendo tu perfume embriagador Y tus palabras susurrar a media voz Y soy feliz al comprender Que está llamando a mi puerta el amor Por eso mi mundo es Amanecer de un nuevo sol Intensamente estoy viviendo la emoción Que ha desbordado el volcán de tu ilusión Y al escuchar tu corazón Entre mis brazos lo he fundido con mi amor Por eso hoy... Nosotros somos el milagro del amor Que ha de vivir eternamente entre los dos Y al manantial de la ilusión Del que bebemos solamente tú y yo
Heaven Only Knows Composer(s): Paul Kennerley Performer(s): Emmylou Harris
Every night it's the same I feel your heart turn cold as rain And know that you'll be gone again I hear the front door close You say you got to go downtown I guess there's someone else you've found So why you're still coming round Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows just why loving you should make me cry Make me feel like I could die That's the way it goes Heaven only ever sees How love's made a fool of me I guess that's how it's meant to be but Heaven only knows
I've heard it said that talk is cheap But still your words they cut so deep Lay me crying in my sleep And the pain just grows I don't know who's right or wrong But all we had is dead and gone So why you keep me hanging on Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows just why loving you should make me cry Make me feel like I could die That's the way it goes Heaven only ever sees How love's made a fool of me I guess that's how it's meant to be but Heaven only knows
I'm going to turn and walk away There's nothing left for me to say It wouldn't change things anyway Though, I suppose The love I gave was always true Well, I don't know what else to do And how I'll ever get over you Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows just why loving you should make me cry Make me feel like I could die That's the way it goes Heaven only ever sees How love's made a fool of me I guess that's how it's meant to be but Heaven only knows
Have A Little Faith Composer(s): Billy Sherrill; Glenn Sutton Performer(s): Barbara Fairchild; and various other artists
Your best friend, your best girl Just made a big mess o' your world 'Cause arm in arm they left you feelin' blue She set a trap, you got caught You should a took her with a grain o' salt So have a little faith and love will come to you
So she's leavin' for somebody new She's even got you believin' There's nothin' you can do Brush that teardrop off your face And put a smile back in its place Have a little faith and love will come to you
Beyond the clouds the sky is always blue
Have a little faith and love will come to you
So don't be lonely and don't be blue Your one and only is somewhere waitin' just for you With two lovin' arms to hug your neck Is right around the corner where you least expect She'll be there with love to pull you through Just have a little faith and love will come to you

Fale baixinho E me envolva com calor Me abrace forte E confesse o seu amor Eu quero ouvir dos lábios seus Que em nosso amor Não haverá nenhum adeus Jamais sonhei ser tão feliz Nós dois assim, num só coração Fale baixinho E só o céu vai nos ouvir Diga que o nosso amor Ninguém vai destruir Se eu lhe dei a minha vida Você me trouxe a paz Que tanto procurei
Heaven On Their Minds Composer(s): Andrew Lloyd Webber; Tim Rice Performer(s): Andrew Lloyd Webber; and various other artists
Judas: My mind is clearer now - at last all too well I can see where we all soon will be If you strip away the myth from the man You will see where we all soon will be Jesus! You've started to believe the things they say of you You really do believe this talk of God is true And all the good you've done will soon get swept away You've begun to matter more than the things you say Listen Jesus I don't like what I see All I ask is that you listen to me And remember - I've been your right hand man all along You have set them all on fire They think they've found the new Messiah And they'll hurt you when they find they're wrong I remember when this whole thing began No talk of God then - we called you a man And believe me - my admiration for you hasn't died But every word you say today Gets twisted round some other way And they'll hurt you if they think you've lied Nazareth your famous son should have stayed a great unknown Like his father carving wood - he'd have made good Tables, chairs and oaken chests would have suited Jesus best He'd have caused nobody's harm - no-one alarm Listen Jesus do you care for your race? Don't you see we must keep in our place? We are occupied - have you forgotten how put down we are? I am frightened by the crowd For we are getting much too loud And they'll crush us if we go too far Listen Jesus to the warning I give Please remember that I want us to live But it's sad to see our chances weakening with every hour All your followers are blind Too much heaven on their minds It was beautiful but now it's sour Yes it's all gone sour
Have A Happy Composer(s): Ben Weisman; Florence Kaye; Dolores Fuller Performer(s): Elvis Presley
Now once it was told to me We're born with a magic key It opens the door to miracles of Spring
It takes you to wishing wells To ice cream and carousels And yet this magic key won't unlock a thing
Unless... you have a happy, yeah, have a happy Mmm, have a happy, warm smilin' face Now start believin' in believin' Let your address be Sunshine Place
There's love and there's joy untold Much more than your heart can hold It's there like the ring you grab on a merry-go-round
The world isn't half as grey With friends on a rainy day But people keep away when you wear a frown
You've got... to have a happy, yeah, have a happy Have a happy, warm smiling face Mmm, start believin' in believin' Let your address be Sunshine Place Let your address be Sunshine Place Let your address be Sunshine Place

Heaven On The 7th Floor Composer(s): Dominic Bugatti; Frank Musker Performer(s): Paul Nicholas
"Goin' up?" she said, uh-huh Just as we were startin' to climb together Ooh-ooh, lookin' up I said, "Uh-huh Maybe I could see you tonight?"
She said "Never!" Ooh-ooh, I was out of luck But ten seconds later somehow We got stuck in that elevator

"We're alone" I said, uh-huh "Looks like we could be here all night together", ooh-ooh "There's a phone" she said, uh-huh "Gonna have us out in five minutes time whatever" "Please could you make it ten" I told the operator "I'm havin' so much fun in this elevator"
Heaven on the 7th floor (Hey baby) Heaven on the 7th floor (I ain't complainin') But I've never been so high before So please don't rescue me Never set me free Hey, hey, hey
And as the Muzak played, sooner or later I knew We'd fall in love in that elevator

Brucia la luna n'cielu E ju bruciu d'amuri Focu ca si consuma Comu lu me cori
L'anima chianci Addulurata
Non si da paci Ma cchi mala nuttata
Lu tempu passa Ma non agghiorna Non c'e mai suli S'idda non torna
Brucia la terra mia E abbrucia lu me cori Cchi siti d'acqua idda E ju siti d'amuri
Acu la cantu La me canzuni
Si no c'e nuddu Ca s'a affacia A lu barcuni
Brucia la luna n'cielu E ju bruciu d'amuri Focu ca si consuma Comu lu me cori
Have A Good Time Composer(s): Paul Simon Performer(s): Paul Simon
Yesterday it was my birthday I hung one more year on the line I should be depressed My life's a mess But I'm having a good time
Oo, I've been loving and loving and loving I'm exhausted from loving so well I should go to bed But a voice in my head Says "Ah, what the hell"
Have a good time Have a good time Have a good time Have a good time
Paranoia strikes deep in the heartland But I think it's all overdone Exaggerating this and exaggerating that They don't have no fun
I don't believe what I read in the papers They're just out to capture my dime I ain't worrying And I ain't scurrying; I'm having a good time
Have a good time Have a good time Have a good time Have a good time
Maybe I'm laughing my way to disaster Maybe my race has been run Maybe I'm blind to the fate of mankind But what can be done? So God bless the goods we was given And God bless the U. S. of A. And God bless our standard of living Let's keep it that way And we'll all have a good time
Repeat

Vito marie sa fille et dans parc ils sont tous là Des plus grands aux petits, ils font partie de la Mafia On s'embrasse et l'on oublie ses rancoeurs On donne en cage son honneur
Savez-vous ce qu'il y a derrière les murs de la villa Des hommes en smock avec une mitraillette à chaque bras Des hommes pour garder les voitures et protéger toutes les parures Voilà
On l'appela Vito Corleone Le jour où il franchit l'Atlantique Lui, l'exilé, le Sicilien à New-York Il va découvrir comme on pratique La pègre dans les arrières-boutique En une rafale, tombe son rivale Il devient le Parrain Capable du bien comme du pire Les politiciens craignent son empire Trafic d'alcool Père de famille Quelle est loin la Sicile
Constance au bras, le padrano ouvre la tarentelle Parmi les corbeilles de fleurs, tourbillonne les dentelles Soudain Johnny pousse la cancionnetta Sous les bravos de la Mama
Vito est mort, tué dans la rue Par un gang inconnu Il a laissé trois fils et la légende continue

I've cried through many endless nights Just holding my pillow tight Then you came into my lonely days With your tender love and sweet ways Now I don't know where you come from baby Don't know where you been now baby Heaven must have sent you into my arms

Ooh it's heaven in your arms It's the sweetness of your charms Makes me love you more each day In your arms I wanna stay
Wanna thank you for the joy you've brought me Thank you for the things you taught me Thank you for holding me close When I needed you the most Now I don't know much about you baby But I know I can't live without you Heaven must have sent you honey To love only me
It's heaven in your arms It's the sweetness of your charms Makes me love you more each day In your arms I wanna stay
