Afterglow
Composer(s): Tony Banks
Performer(s): Genesis



Like the dust that settles all around me
I must find a new home
The ways and holes that used to give me shelter
Are all as one to me now
But I, I would search everywhere
Just to hear your call
And walk upon stranger roads than this one
In a world I used to know before
I miss you more

Than the sun reflecting off my pillow
Bringing the warmth of new life
And the sounds that echoed all around me
I caught a glimpse of in the night
But now, now I've lost everything
I give to you my soul
The meaning of all that I believed before
Escapes me in this world of none, no thing, no one

And I would search everywhere
Just to hear your call
And walk upon stranger roads than this one
In a world I used to know before
For now I've lost everything
I give to you my soul
The meaning of all that I believed before
Escapes me in this world of none
I miss you more

What's Another Year
Composer(s): Shay Healey
First performance by: Johnny Logan - 1980
Covered by multiple other artists



I've been waiting such a long time 
Looking out for you, but you're not here
What's another year?

I've been waking such a long time 
Reaching out for you, but you aren't near
What's another year? 

What's another year
For someone who's lost everything that he owns?
What's another year
For someone who's getting used to being alone? 

I've been praying such a long time
It's the only way to hide the fear
What's another year? 

What's another year
For someone who's lost everything that he owns?
What's another year
For someone who's getting used to being alone? 

I've been crying such a long time
With such a lot of pain in every tear
What's another year? (For someone who is getting used to being alone)
What's another year? (For someone who is getting used to being alone)
What's another year? (For someone who is getting used to being alone)

After You've Gone

First release by: Henry Burr & Albert Campbell - 1918
Covered by multiple other artists



Now won't you listen honey, while I say 
How could you tell me that you're goin' away? 
Don't say that we must part
Don't break your baby's heart 

You know I've loved you for these many years
Loved you night and day... 
Oh! honey baby, can't you see my tears? 
Listen while I say

After you've gone and left me cryin'
After you've gone there's no denyin'
You'll feel blue, you'll feel sad
You'll miss the dearest pal you've ever had

There'll come a time, now don't forget it
There'll come a time when you'll regret it
Someday, when you grow lonely
Your heart will break like mine and you'll want me only
After you've gone, after you've gone away

After you've gone and left me cryin'
After you've gone there's no denyin'
You're gonna feel blue, and you're gonna feel sad
You're gonna feel bad
And you'll miss, and you'll miss,
And you'll miss the bestest pal you ever had

There'll come a time, now don't forget it
There'll come a time when you'll regret it
But baby, think what you're doin'
I'm gonna haunt you so, I'm gonna taunt you so
It's gonna drive you to ruin
After you've gone, after you've gone away

What's A Poor Girl Gonna Do?
Composer(s): Blanche Calloway
Performer(s): Blanche Calloway



Can't help sighin', feel like dyin
Technocrats are prime mechanical men
Machinery will ruin me
Ain't been so worried in I don't know when!

What's a poor gal gonna do with a man of steel?
One who has been wired for sound, and ain't got no sex appeal?
What's a poor gal gonna do with a mechanical man?
One who is neither Democrat nor Republican?

Gals nowadays are energetic, athletic, and poetic
Without a chance of ruination
What will be their inspiration?
Lordy, hear me while I pray
Please don't take the men away
If they leave this world, I'm asking you
What's a poor gal gonna do?

What's a poor gal gonna do with a man of steel?
One who has been wired for sound, and ain't got no sex appeal?
What's a poor gal gonna do with a mechanical man?
One who is neither Democrat nor Republican?

Gals nowadays are modernistic, want their loving futuristic
Believe me, there's no substitute
For a great big he-man brute
Lord, hear me while I pray
Please don't take the men away
If they leave this world, I'm asking you
What's a poor gal gonna do?

After You, Who?
Composer(s): Cole Porter
First performance by: Fred Astaire - 1932
Covered by multiple other artists



Though with joy I should be reeling
That at last you came my way
There's no further use concealing
That I'm feeling far from gay
For the rare allure about you
Makes me all the plainer see
How inane, how vain, how empty life without you would be

After you, who
Could supply my sky of blue?
After you, who
Could I love?
After you, why
Should I take the time to try
For who else could qualify
After you, who?
Hold my hand and swear
You'll never cease to care
For without you there what could I do?
I could search years
But who else could change my tears
Into laughter after you?

Performer(s): The Small Faces;

I know the reason you've been cryin'
And I heard she won't be needin' you
How does it feel, bein' the one left behind
(What's a matter baby) What's a matter baby, is she hurtin' you?

And I heard you found out she's been cheatin'
Oh yeah and I heard she even thought that she was untrue
Well how does it feel being on the outside lookin' in
(What's a matter baby) What's a matter baby, is she hurtin' you?

What's a matter baby, is she hurtin' you?
What's a matter baby, is she hurtin' you?

Remember, remember when I needed you so bad
Remember, what you had to say
You told me Little girl, find another sooner... (too much noise here)
You left, you left then and you walked away
I know, I know that hou've been askin' about me
(What's a matter baby) well I'm sorry baby but I've got somebody new
Whoa, whoa, whoa my hurt, my hurt, my hurt is just about over
Well let me tell you somethin' baby, it's just startin' for you

What's a matter baby, is she hurtin' you?
What's a matter baby baby baby, that girl has she been hurtin' you?

What's a matter baby?

What's a matter, uh?
Come on boy, you can tell me
Remember I'm a very good friend of yours
Yes and I know a little bit about pain
Does it hurt?...
Does it hurt, uh? 
What's a matter baby?...

After You Turn Out Your Light
Performer(s): Roy Drusky



After you're alone at night who do you think of
After you turn out your light who do you dream of
Could it be that you long to hold another time
Are you still loving me after you turn out your light
You show that you love me by things that you do
But do you still love me when I'm not with you
What goes through your mind when I'm not in sight
Are you still loving me after you turn out your light
What goes through your mind...

What'll You Do About Me?
Composer(s): Dennis Linde
Performer(s): Steve Earle;
and various other artists



All you wanted was a one-night stand        
The fire of a wine and the touch of a man        
But I fell in love and ruined all of your plans        
What'll you do about me?
       
Imagine the faces on your high-class friends
When I beat on the door and I beg to come in        
Screamin' "Come on and love me again"        
Now what'll you do about me?       
        
Well you can change your number, you can change your name                
You can ride like hell on the midnight train        
But that’s alright mama, that’s O.K.        
But what'll you do about me?
        
Picture your neighbors when you try to explain
That good ol' boy standin' out in the rain        
With his nose on the window pane        
Lady, what'll you do about me?
       
What in the world are you plannin’ to do        
When a man comes over just to visit with you
And I’m on the porch with a 2' by 2'
Tell me what'll you do about me?

Well, you can call your lawyer, you can call the fuzz
You can sound the alarm, wake your neighbours up
There ain't no way to stop a man in love        
What'll you do about me?

All you wanted was a one-night stand        
The fire of a wine and the touch of a man

There ain't no way to stop a man in love
So what'll you do about me?

What'll you do about me?

What'll you do about me?

After You Put Back The Pieces (I'll Still Have A Broken Heart)
Composer(s): Morris Broadnax - Clarence Paul - Stevie Wonder
Performer(s): Smokey Robinson & the Miracles



Yes, you played the part of my true lover
But then you broke my heart
Now you'II try in vain to piece back a dream
That no longer remains
'Cause I'm tired it's true
Of what I'm going through
It's better if we're apart

After you put back the pieces
I'll still have a broken heart

In playing your games you've broke every promise
And then the heartaches came to us
Although you're tellin' me
That you're so sorry
That you hurt me from the start

After you put back the pieces
I'll still have a broken heart

If my love you miss
Then always remember that you started this
For a heart that is real
If once it is broken
It may never heal
For breakin' hearts with you
Is nothing new
With you it's just an art
After you put back the pieces
I'll still have a broken heart
I know for real
After you put back the pieces
I'll still have a broken heart
I know I know A know I know
After you put back the pieces
I'll still have a broken heart

What'll I Do?
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
Performer(s): Paul Whiteman;
and various other artists



Gone is the romance that was so divine
'Tis broken and cannot be mended
You must go your way
And I must go mine
But now that our love dreams have ended...

What'll I do
When you are far away
And I am blue
What'll I do?

What'll I do?
When I am wond'ring who
Is kissing you
What'll I do?

What'll I do with just a photograph
To tell my troubles to?

When I'm alone
With only dreams of you
That won't come true
What'll I do?

What'll I do with just a photograph
To tell my troubles to?

When I'm alone
With only dreams of you
That won't come true
What'll I do?

After You Get What You Want, You Don't Want It
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
Performer(s): Nat King Cole
and multiple other artists



Listen to me, honey dear, something's wrong with you I fear
It's getting harder to please you, harder and harder each year
I don't want to make you blue, but you need a talking to
Like a lot of people I know, here's what's wrong with you

After you get what you want, you don't want it
If I gave you the moon, you'd grow tired of it soon
You're like a baby, you want what you want when you want it
But after you are presented with what you want, you're discontented

You're always wishing and wanting for something
When you get what you want, you don't want what you get
And tho' I sit upon your knee, you'll grow tired of me
'Cause after you get what you want, you don't want what you wanted at all

Don't you say that I'm unkind , think it over and you'll find
You've got a changeable nature, you're always changing your mind
There's a longing in your eye that is hard to satisfy
You're unhappy most of the time, here's the reason why

After you get what you want, you don't want it
If I gave you the moon, you'd grow tired of it soon
You're like a baby, you want what you want when you want it
But after you are presented with what you want, you're discontented

You're always wishing and wanting for something
When you get what you want, you don't want what you get
And tho' I sit upon your knee, you'll grow tired of me
'Cause after you get what you want, you don't want what you wanted at all

Composer(s): Noel Gay - Douglas Furber - L. Arthur Rose - Pierre Delanoë
Performer(s): Dalida - 1978



Bonjour Dalida!
Bonjour
Mais qu'est-ce que tu fais?
Je danse
Tu danses? le foxtrot, la polka?
Non, non, je danse le lambeth walk
Quoi?
Le lambeth walk
Hé!

Quand on feuilletait naguère
Dans les greniers de nos grands-mères
On découvrait des tas d'objets
Qu'on appelait nids à poussière

Mais ma grand-mère à moi
Dans son grenier possède un tas
De bons disques sympahtiques
Et un phono mécanique

Un p'tit coup de manivelle
Et j'entends des ritournelles
Des airs qui chantent
Les folles années trente

Des charlestons, des rumbas
Des béguines et des javas
Et moi je danse
Les danses d'autrefois

Mais celle que je préfère
Nous venait d'Angleterre
Ecoutez-moi ce swing
God save the King
Quand on voulait la danser
Il suffisait de marcher
Le lambeth walk
C'était pas compliqué
Hé!

J'ai l'impression bizarre
De faire danser l'histoire
De revenir au temps de Grand-Maman

Quand on voulait la danser
Il suffisait de marcher
Le lambeth walk
C'était pas compliqué
He!

Toute seule dans mon grenier
Moi je l'ai réssucité
Le lambeth walk
C'était pas compliqué

Voici mon phonographe
Messieurs les chorégraphes
Ecoutez-moi ce swing
God save the Queen

Un p'tit coup de manivelle
Et j'entends des ritournelles
Des airs qui chantent
Les folles années trente

Toute seule dans mon grenier
Moi je l'ai réssucité
Le lambeth walk
C'était pas compliqué

Whatever It Takes
Composer(s): Marc Gordon; Ian Wilson; Paul Young
Performer(s): Sad Café



Life can be hard, I know that's true
Nobody loves you the way that I do
I work my fingers right down to the bone
To have someone I can call my very own
And when you need someone to hold on to
Nobody holds you the way that I do
From now on (you know that from now on)
If we are strong (we've got to be so strong)
We'll carry on (and we must carry on)
and do whatever it takes
'Til two hearts beat as one
I know you're needing some time on your own
But if you need me just pick up the telephone
Give me a call, show me you care
Just name the time, you know I'll be there
Then you'll have me to tell your troubles to
Nobody listens the way that I do
(For so long, I've waited for so long)
I thought you'd gone (I thought that you had gone)
True love goes on (true love goes on and on)
I'll do whatever it takes to keep you
From now on (you know that from now on)
If we are strong (we've got to be so strong)
We'll carry on (and we must carry on)
And do whatever it takes
'Til two hearts beat as one
And when I need someone to make love to
Nobody does it the way that you do
(For so long, I've waited for so long)
I thought you'd gone (I thought that you had gone)
True love goes on (true love goes on and on)
I'll do whatever it takes to keep you
From now on (you know that from now on)
If we are strong (we've got to be so strong)
We'll carry on (and we must carry on)
And do whatever it takes
'Til two hearts beat as one
(I've waited for so long)
Don't get me wrong (I thought that you had gone)
So stay so strong (True love goes on and on)
We'll do whatever it takes
To keep you from now on
(We know that from now on)
If we are strong (we've got to be so strong)
We'll carry on (and we must carry on)
and do whatever it takes
'Til two hearts beat as one
(I've waited for so long)
I've waited so long (I thought that you had gone)
True love goes on (true love goes on and on)
Now I'll do whatever it takes
Whatever it takes

Lover Come Back To Me
Composer(s): Sigmund Romberg - Oscar Hammerstein II
First performance by: Evelyn Herbert - 1928
Covered by multiple other artists



You went away, I let you
We broke the ties that bind
I wanted to forget you
And leave the past behind
Still, the magic of the night I met you
Seems to stay forever in my mind

The sky was blue and high above
The moon was new and so was love
This eager heart of mine was singing
Lover where can you be

You came at last, love had its day
That day is past, you've gone away
This aching heart of mine is singing
Lover come back to me

Remembering every little thing you used to say and do
I'm so lonely
Every road I walk along, I walked along with you
No wonder I am lonely

The sky is blue, the night is cold
The moon is new, but love is old
And while I'm waiting here
This heart of mine is singing
Lover come back to me

And while I'm waiting here
This heart of mine is singing
Lover come back to me

Whatever It Takes
Composer(s): Jim Femino; Essra Mohawk
Performer(s): Essra Mohawk



I pick up the paper
And the news reads just like Stephen King
Y'know last night I woke up shakin'
So afraid of what the day might bring
What tomorrow will bring
Well, something's gotta' break it
If we're ever gonna' make it
Or life won't mean a thing

(chorus): 
Whatever it takes to make the world go round
Whatever it takes to bring the bad guys down
wWhatever it takes for heaven sakes
Don't give up without a sound
We'll be lost until we've found
Whatever it takes

No one says it's easy
But does it have to be so hard
Maybe there's an answer
Right in everyone's backyard
For every step we've taken
We seem to fall back two
Have we fallen back too far

(chorus): 
Whatever it takes to make the world go round
Whatever it takes to bring the bad guys down
Whatever it takes for heaven sakes
Don't give up without a sound
We'll be lost until we've found

Whatever it takes
Whatever the cost
We've got to get back all that we lost

(chorus): 
Whatever it takes to make the world go round
Whatever it takes to bring the bad guys down
Is it wisdom? 
Is it love?
Is it all of the above?
Oh we'll all need plenty of whatever it takes . . .

After We Make Love
Composer(s): Gerry Goffin - Michael Masser
Performer(s): Whitney Houston



I've been waiting such a long time 
For a love that's real to come my way 
Gonna take some getting used to 
Now that love is here to stay 

After we make love 
I'll be lost in the afterglow 
You're all I'm dreaming of 
I just can't l just can't let the feeling go 
After we make love 
There's no doubt in my mind I've been touched by 
All that heaven and earth will allow 
All that matters is right here and now 

Now the world is filled with wonder 
You've turned my life around in just one day 
I love the spell you've put me under 
Just one kiss can take my breath away 

After we make love 
Feels so good to be lost in the afterglow 
You're all I'm dreaming of 
I just can't l just can't let the feeling go 
After we make love 
There's no doubt in my mind I've been touched by 
All that heaven and earth will allow 
All that matters is right here and now 

All those lonely days and nights 
Were well worth going through 
I'm so glad I never gave my heart away 
It's like I waited all my life 
So I could give it all to you 

I've been waiting such a long time 
For a love that's real to come my way 
It's gonna take some getting used to 
Now that love is here to stay 

After we make love 
Feels so good to be lost in the afterglow 
After we make love 
I just can't l just can't let the feeling go 
After we make love 
There's no doubt in my mind I've been touched by 
All that heaven and earth will allow 
All that matters is right here and now 
All that matters is right here and now

Whatever Happened To Saturday Night? 
(aka "Hot Patootie - Bless My Soul")
Composer(s): Richard O'Brien
Performer(s): Meat Loaf



Eddie:
Whatever happened to Saturday night?
When you dressed up sharp and you felt alright
It don't seem the same since cosmic light
Came into my life, I thought I was divine
I used to go for a ride with a chick who'd go
And listen to the music on the radio
A saxophone was blowing on a Rock and Roll show
We climbed in the back seat, really had a good time
Hot patootie, bless my soul
Really love that Rock and Roll

(Hot patootie, bless my soul)
(I really love that Rock and Roll)
(Hot patootie, bless my soul)
(I really love that Rock and Roll)
(Hot patootie, bless my soul)
(I really love that Rock and Roll)

Eddie:
My head used to swim from the perfume I smelled
My hands kinda fumbled with her white plastic belt
I'd taste her baby pink lipstick and that's when I'd melt
She'd whisper in my ear tonight she really was mine
Get back in front and put some hair oil on
Buddy Holly was singing his very last song
With your arms around your girl, you try to sing along
It felt pretty good.....Whoo!
Really had a good time
Hot patootie, bless my soul
Really love that Rock and Roll

(Hot patootie, bless my soul
(I really love that Rock and Roll)
(Hot patootie, bless my soul)
(I really love that Rock and Roll)
(Hot patootie, bless my soul)
(I really love that Rock and Roll)

(Hot patootie, bless my soul
(I really love that Rock and Roll)
(Hot patootie, bless my soul)
(I really love that Rock and Roll)
(Hot patootie, bless my soul)
(I really love that Rock and Roll)
(Hot patootie, bless my soul
(I really love that Rock and Roll)
(Hot patootie, bless my soul)
(I really love that Rock and Roll)
(Hot patootie, bless my soul)
(I really love that Rock and Roll)
(Hot patootie, bless my soul
(I really love that Rock and Roll)
(Hot patootie, bless my soul)
(I really love that Rock and Roll)
