Springtime Reminds Me Of You Composer(s): D. Carter - Fritz Rotter - Walter Jurmann Performer(s): Al Bowlly
The trees and the flowers bring back all those hours And the springtime reminds me of you The song of a bird recalls every word And tells of the joys we knew Though we laughed for a while, too soon we had to part And your song and your smile are forever in my heart For the blue of the skies is the blue of your eyes And the springtime reminds me of you
Here Comes That Feeling Composer(s): Dorsey Burnette; Joe Osborne Performer(s): Brenda Lee; El Perro del Mar
Here comes that feeling again, and it ain't right That lonely feeling that came to me last night It hurts to see you in the arms of my friend Here comes that lonely, lonely feeling again
I saw you last night, in a drive-in way downtown Locked in her arms, you didn't know I'd be around Alone in my room, I remember where you've been Here comes that lonely, lonely feeling again
I've gotta get rid of this lonely feeling (Lonely feeling) That makes me feel the way I do when a day is done (Day is done) Someday you're gonna know what it means to be lonesome (To be lonesome) You're gonna want me back while I'm having fun
Here comes that feeling again, and it ain't right That lonely feeling that came to me last night It hurts to see you in the arms of my friend Here comes that lonely, lonely feeling again
Oh, I'm so lonely Mmm, I feel that feeling And it's hurting me, mmm...

Loin De Moi ((English Version: Without You (by Johnny Tillotson)) Composer(s): Johnny Tillotson - G. Aber Performer(s): Dalida
L'ennui m'enchaîne Je n'y peut rien Quoi qu'il advienne L'ennui me tient Dans la nuit je supplie, je crie et je prie Où es-tu? Que fais-tu? Loin de moi
La nuit je traîne Comme une croix Toute ma peine N'entends-tu pas C'est ma voix qui supplie, qui prie et te crie Où es-tu? Que fais-tu? Loin de moi
Je crois toujours À ton retour Au fol espoir De te revoir Plus que jamais Je veux t'aimer Alors j'attends viendras-tu? Mais quand?
L'ennuie me ronge Tout doucement Il me replonge Dans mes tourments C'est mon cur qui supplie qui prie et te crie Où es-tu? Que fais-tu? Loin de moi Où es-tu? Que fais-tu? Loin de moi
Here Comes My Girl Composer(s): Mike Campbell; Tom Petty Performer(s): Tom Petty; Throneberry
You know , sometimes, I don't know why But this old town just seems so hopeless I ain't really sure, but it seems I remember the good times Were just a little bit more in focus
But when she puts her arms around me I can, somehow, rise ab ove it Yeah man, when I got that little girl standing right by my side You know, I can tell the whole wide world, "Shove it"
Hey, here comes my girl, here comes my girl Yeah, she looks so right, she's all I need tonight
Every now and then, I get down to the end of a day I'll have to stop, ask myself, "What've I done?" It just seems so useless to have to work so hard And nothin' ever really seem to come from it
And then she looks m e in the eye, says, "We gonna last forever" And man, you know I can't begin to doubt it No, because this feels so good and so free and so right I know we ain't never goin' change our minds about it
Hey, here comes my girl, here comes my girl Yeah, she looks so right, she's all I need tonight
Yeah, every time it seems like there ain't nothin' left no more I find myself havin' to reach out and grab hold of somethin' Yeah, I just catch myself wonderin', waitin', worryin' About some silly little things that don't add up to nothin'
And then she looks me in the eye, says, "We gonna last forever" And man, you know I can't begin to doubt it No, because this feels so good and so free and so right I know we ain't never goin' change our minds about it
Hey, here comes my girl, here comes my girl Yeah, she looks so right, she's all I need tonight
Springtime Promises Composer(s): Terry Cox - Bert Jansch - Jacqui McShee - John Renbourn - Danny Thompson Performer(s): Pentangle
Summertime is with us once again Flowers blooming everywhere again And the cold days of winter are behind us now And the springtime promises all come true
Trees and grass and bushes green again The sky's so blue, I don't remember when The cold days of winter took the sun away But the spring time promises all came true It's summertime now, so please don't throw it away
Winter world will be with us once again Flowers dying everywhere again And the warm days of summer will they far behind And the springtime promises soon forgot
Grass and bushes withered, and the trees are bare Dark and cloudy skies and people in despair And the warm days of summer seem so far away And the springtime promises still forgot It's wintertime so you've got to wait a while For the spring time promises to come true
Now the new born year has come once more Gentle showers are with us as before It's the time when all promises are now made true And the springtime sun returns anew
Someday all will turn to green again Flowers will burst of seeds to bloom again The warm days of springtime tell us all is past Can you feel your promises will be true It's springtime now, be happy again
On Again ... Off Again Composer(s): Philip Vella - Gerard James Borg First performance by: Julie & Ludwig - 2004
Look at me, I need some attention I'm a girl of serious intention Just like a butterfly My wings can take me high To touch your piece of sky
Though I can fly away Play cool, or run away I choose to hold your love More than one night
You're everything and nothing in one (What do you mean?) Our love goes from the north to the south (I disagree) I just can't understand anymore What we have in common
On again, off again Like the rhythm of rain We need to decide Find an end to this game Such wonderful times Many natural highs Love is a flame that we can never tame On again, off again
Why, oh why can't I live without you? How, oh how do I reach inside you? My love is justified I simply had enough I want you by my side
Am I your fantasy? Mystery? Or destiny? Do you take me for a ride? Please, tell me now
You're the air, you're the love that I breathe (That sounds so good) You're the magic that flows from within (I feel that too) We come close, then we move far away Can't we stay together?
On again, off again Like the rhythm of rain We need to decide Find an end to this game Such wonderful times Many natural highs Love is a flame that we can never tame On again, off again
There's a river between us And I need you to come across Reach out for my heart Keep this feeling so alive Love grows, we survive
On again, off again Like the rhythm of rain We need to decide Find an end to this game Such wonderful times Many natural highs Love is a flame that we can never tame On again, off again
Off again, on again Like a flickering flame That dies in the wind And lights up again Such wonderful times Many natural highs Love is a flame we can never tame On again, off again

Springtime Mama Composer(s): Henry Gross Performer(s): Henry Gross
Springtime Mama, with my lady Let me know that I've been lazy Let your smile that gets me crazy Like the moon is shining through
Springtime Mama, roll it over To the road side little cover Hold me down now take me over `Till that feeling's back again
Wanna have a simple moonshine Wanna sing along on a song or two Said, "Gonna make it for the old times Wanna hold your hand and kiss the whole night through
Wanna hear about your Springtime Mama Said, "Yeah wanna Springtime Mama" Talkin' `bout, talkin' `bout your Springtime Mama Said, "Yeah wanna Springtime Mama"
Springtime Mama, I've been rolling With the flow of old wind's blowing Always hoping, never knowing If I'd get with you again
Springtime Mama, with my lady Let me know that I've been lazy Let your smile that gets me crazy Like the moon is shining through
Wanna hear about your Springtime Mama Said, "Yeah wanna Springtime Mama" Talkin' `bout, talkin' `bout your Springtime Mama Said, "Yeah wanna Springtime Mama"
Talkin' `bout, talkin' `bout your Springtime Mama Said, "Yeah wanna Springtime Mama" Talkin' `bout, talkin' `bout your Springtime Mama Said, "Yeah wanna Springtime Mama" Talkin' `bout, talkin' `bout your Springtime Mama Talkin' `bout, talkin' `bout
Here Comes A Man Composer(s): Jim Capaldi; Steve Winwood Performer(s): Traffic
I've heard it said people's souls chase the night Hoping for times that went before when their hearts were flying No, don't you be blue when you hear the wild birds call Oh, hold on, love, 'cause I'll never let you fall Here comes a man who'll give you all the love he can Far from the rain where you'll never feel the pain Don't cry, we'll come alive, oh, if you'll wait for me Out of my head a vision flows bathed in light Borne by the tide along the shore where the wind is sighing No, don't you be blue when you hear the music play Just hold on, love, 'cause we're gonna sail away
(refrain)
I've been coming to set you free 'cause your love belongs to me Yes, I'm going to make you mine 'till the end of time Hoping to get through and that the hailstones don't fall So hold on, love, like you never did before
À Chaque Pas
Composer(s): Ben "Jammin" Robbins - Jonatan Cerrada - Steve Balsamo
First performance by: Jonatan Cerrada - 2004
Il y a des blessures Qu'on devra oublier Tellement de ratures Qu'il faudra effacer
Souffler très fort pour que s'envole de nos coeurs la rancune Et puis faire tomber les barrières une à une...
À chaque pas que l'on fera À chaque geste qu'on offrira Ce sera le début d'un autre demain Dans chaque mot que l'on dira Dans ce futur qu'on construira C'est l'Amour que dessineront nos mains
Il y a des injures Qu'il faudra pardonner Des cris contre des murs Qui les feront tomber
Déposons les armes à nos pieds, délaissons nos armures Pour que nos conflits ne soient plus que murmures
À chaque pas que l'on fera À chaque geste qu'on offrira Ce sera le début d'un autre demain Dans chaque mot que l'on dira Dans ce futur qu'on construira C'est l'Amour que dessineront nos mains
La bataille sera longue Mais tu sais elle en vaut la peine L'enfant en nous trouvera le chemin
Il y a des fêlures Qui resteront brisées Des coups un peu durs À jamais marqués
À chaque pas que l'on fera À chaque geste qu'on offrira Se que al final lograras encontrar La paz y la felicitad En tu camino hallaras Todo lo que deseas alcanzar
Here Come Those Tears Again Composer(s): Jackson Browne; Nancy Farnsworth Performer(s): Jackson Browne
Here come those tears again Just when I was getting over you Just when I was going to make it through Another night without missing you Thinking I might just be strong enough after all When I hear your footsteps echoing in the hall Baby here we stand again Like we've been so many times before Even though you looked so sure As I was watching you walking out my door But you always walk back in like you did today Acting like you never even went away Well I don't know if I can Open up and let you in baby Here come those tears Here come those tears again I can hear you telling me How you needed to be free And you had some things to work out alone Now you're standing here telling me How you have grown Here come those tears again Now you'll tell me how to hold them in Here come those tears Here come those tears again Some other time baby When I'm strong and feeling fine maybe When I can look at you without crying You might look like a friend of mine But I don't know if I can Open up enough to let you in Here come those tears Here come those tears again Just walk away I'm going back inside and turning out those light And I'll be in the dark but you'll be out of sight

High
Composer(s): Thomas Thörnholm - Lars Andersson - Dan Attlerud
First performance by: Knut Anders Sørum - 2004
I have tried every way
To get to the heart of your soul
'Cause everything that you deny
Could be there if you let me know
I wanna heal every wound in you
To finally make you believe
High, over the rain
There's still a sun that could ease all your pain
I always try holding your heart
Bringing you high
Try to make you see the light
When sorrow grows deep in your mind
And seize the day, not asking why
There is so much for you to find
I wanna bring you the wings to fly
To never be broken again
Oh... high (high), over the rain (over the rain)
There's still a sun that could ease all your pain (ease all your pain)
I always try (try), holding your heart (holding your heart)
Bringing you high (bringing you so high)
I just wanna open your closing mind
Your life can't be worth all your sacrifice
There is a light over you
Please let it through (let it through)
High (high), over the rain (over the rain)
There's still a sun that could ease all your pain (ease all your pain)
I always try (try), holding your heart (holding your heart)
Bringing you high (bringing you high)
Oh... (bringing you high)
High (high), over the rain (over the rain)
There's still a sun that could ease all your pain (ease all your pain)
I always try (try), holding your heart (holding your heart)
Bringing you high (bringing you high)
Bringing you high
Here But I'm Gone Composer(s): Marqueze Etheridge; Andrea Martin; Ivan Matias; Curtis Mayfield; Organized Noize Performer(s): Curtis Mayfield
How did I get so far gone Where do I belong And where in the world did I ever go wrong If I took the time to replace What my mind erased I still feel as if I'm here but I'm gone Porched up in a rocking-chair With my feet all bare Rolling my blunt in a cigar wrap Live an adolescent mind never do take the time Waiting for my high, quiet as it's kept How did I get so far gone Where do I belong And where in the world did I ever go wrong If I took the time to replace What my mind erased I still feel as if I'm here but I'm gone Mama told me I was best Argue and punch in my chest Son now be strong, let me take you home I'd see in her eyes so sincere Screaming, what got me here Standing in the world and with my mind all blown How did I get so far gone Where do I belong And where in the world did I ever go wrong If I took the time to replace What my mind erased I still feel as if I'm here but I'm gone How did I get so far gone Where do I belong And where in the world did I ever go wrong If I took the time to replace What my mind erased I still feel as if I'm here but I'm gone I do nothing but waste all my time Leaving the world behind Smoking my crack just to keep me high Around the boys I play my part rough Keep myself tough enough Never to cry Don't really want to die How did I get so far gone Where do I belong And where in the world did I ever go wrong If I took the time to replace What my mind erased I still feel as if I'm here but I'm gone How did I get so far gone Where do I belong And where in the world did I ever go wrong If I took the time to replace What my mind erased I still feel as if I'm here but I'm gone

Here Again Composer(s): Geddy Lee; Alex Lifeson Performer(s): Rush; Joe Harvard Band
I said I played this song so many times before That the melody keeps repeating Growing new ideas, flowing chords and notes Like a mountain river bleeding
Well, I say as I look back at all the thoughts I've had They reflect just what I'm learning Yes, you know that the hardest part, yes, I say it is to stay on top On top of a world forever churning
Well, you say you can laugh, but I can see that your eyes are glass Well, do you see, can't you see, what I'm feeling? Yes, I've seen your face before Why, I've seen it everywhere Showing up to me without a scent revealing
Well, I said will it ever change? Will it stay the same? I'd surely like to know before it's over Well, I said I played some I said it won't be long Won't be long before I stop and play it over
You know I've, I've seen your face before Is it ever gonna, ever gonna change again? Oh, oh, I've, I've been in one place too long Is it ever gonna, ever gonna change again?
