Dancing Shoes Composer(s): Dan Fogelberg Performer(s): Dan Fogelberg
Dancing shoes On the wall above your bedside Saw it all as we performed our pirouette Fleshes fused As the flicker of the candles Threw upon the wall a single silhouette
Tu es dan ma coeur et dans ma téte
Dancing shoes We have loved on distant beaches Where the winter never reaches There we fell Dying swan On the dawn you danced before me Though your eyes were dark and stormy I stood still
Qui peut dire le faux et le réel?
Dancing shoes Though the distances divide us There's a paradise inside us We can't lose Me and you Dance a 'pas de deux' Forever And I pray you never Shed your dancing shoes
La strada bagnata di pioggia è una lama sottile che taglia la sera e la spegne senza fare rumore sul muro rimbalzano stanche le nostre parole non sanno di sole
Nascosta nel buio riposa la malinconia la spalmo sul pane la mangio è proprio la mia che strano sapore d'amore
Immenso amore mio perduto in un pensiero come un gabbiano stanco io graffio ancora il cielo per non morire in volo forse domani mi sveglierò con il sorriso della quiete
Avere bisogno di un piccolo stupido sogno da accendere quando fa freddo la sera d'inverno e bere in silenzio da solo un bicchiere di vino
Guardare lontano lontano chiamare un amico soltanto così per parlare cercando di non farsi del male nel ricordare le nostre risate d'estate
Immenso amore mio perduto in un pensiero come un gabbiano stanco io graffio ancora il cielo per non morire in volo forse domani mi sveglierò col viso dolce della quiete
Dancing Shoes Composer(s): Hank Marvin; Bruce Welch Performer(s): Cliff Richard
You must have heard of a little bo peep she was the gal with all the sheep Well one day its sad to say the sheep all went away she was lonely she was blue She was sad and a crying too So I told her what to do I said Put on your dancing shoes Put on your dancing shoes Put on your dancing shoes Dance a way your blues
A friend of mine had an accident Laughed so hard off the wall he went Humpty dumpty was his name I guess you've heard the same He was a lying on the ground A bits and pieces all around So I told him what to do I said put on your dancing shoes
(chorus)
I'm sure you know about Jack and Jill they're the ones that went up the hill Jack fell down and broke his crown Jill came tumbling after What a noise their crying made It was a ringing through the glade so I told him what to do And I changed their tears to laughter
(chorus)
Put on your dancing shoes Put on your dancing shoes Put on your dancing shoes
Ancora Con Te Composer(s): Sergio Bardotti Performer(s): Peppino Di Capri
Tu che sei tra le tante esperienze Quella che ho ancora in mente Quella che più mi preme Tu che sei tra gli amori che ho avuto Il più complicato il più semplice insieme
Tu che sei il mio sbaglio più giusto E la più strana storia che ha scritto di me E per questo per altro che anche Così tornerei ancora con te
Tu che sei la bugia più sincera La batuta più seria che io ho detto mai Tu che sei il brivido più antico Dell'amore più amico che ho avuto mai Dei ricordi che mi fan compagnia Tu sei la nostalgia che sempre vorrei E così anche solo così sono ancora con te
Ho scordato che volevo scordare Ho pensato che era sciocco pensare Ho capito che non posso capire Ma solo accetare che non ti avrò più
Tu che sei il mio grande rimedio E la sola perfidia che accetterò Tu che sei la mia pace l'affanno Il più stupido ingano che mai soffrirò Dei ricordi che mi fan compagnia Tu sei la nostalgia che sempre vorrei E così anche solo così sono acora con te
Dancing Queen
Composer(s): Benny Andersson; Stig Anderson; Björn Ulvaeus
Originally performed by: ABBA
Covered by various other artists
You can dance
You can jive
Having the time of your life
See that girl
Watch that scene
Dig in the dancing queen
Friday night and the lights are low
Looking out for a place to go
Where they play the right music
Getting in the swing
You come to look for a king
Anybody could be that guy
Night is young and the music's high
With a bit of rock music
Everything is fine
You're in the mood for a dance
And when you get the chance
You are the dancing queen
Young and sweet
Only seventeen
Dancing queen
Feel the beat from the tambourine
You can dance
You can jive
Having the time of your life
See that girl
Watch that scene
Dig in the dancing queen
You're a teaser, you turn 'em on
Leave 'em burning and then you're gone
Looking out for another
Anyone will do
You're in the mood for a dance
And when you get the chance
You are the dancing queen
Young and sweet
Only seventeen
Dancing queen
Feel the beat from the tambourine
You can dance
You can jive
Having the time of your life
See that girl
Watch that scene
Dig in the dancing queen
Ancient Of The Old Composer(s): Dash Crofts - Jim Seals Performer(s): Seals & Croft
On a crisp as bacon morning With the sunshine on my head From the twilight of the dawning Raised myself up from my bed Fixed mine eyes upon a favour Like no mortal eye behold Then I chose to taste the flavour Of the Ancient of the Old
On a chill as winter evening In a doubtful circumstance He stopped the evil breathing Of a one time's serpent's chance Old black sea with silver lining how I long with all my soul To quaff the mystic fragrance Of the Ancient of the Old
From a red as amber burning With the Chalice in my hand I know there is no turning I must now obey Command At last Decree has destined Now the mystery untold Will shine in all it's glory From the Ancient of the Old
Dancing On The Ceiling Composer(s): Mike Frenchik; Lionel Richie; Carlos Rios Performer(s): Lionel Richie and various other artists
What is happening here? Something is going on That's not quite clear Somebody turn on the light We're gonna have a party It's starting tonight
Oh, what a feeling! When we're dancing on he ceiling The room is hot...that's good some of my friends came By from the neighbourhood People were starting To climb the walls Ooh, it looks like everbody Is having a ball
Everybody starts to lose control When the music is right If you see somebody hanging around Don't ge upright The only thing we wanna do tonight Is go round and round and turn upside down Come on, let's get down
So come on, let's get loose Don't hold back Because it ain't no use Hard to keep your feet on the ground Because when we like to ball it We only want to get down what? You say what? It's love now... Just get started Everybody clap your hands, come on Everybody have sense...
Ancient History Composer(s): Wayne Walker - Irene Stanton Performer(s): Billy Walker and multiple other artists
Just walk on out the door it's all over Forgiving you is just a waste of time I don't believe that I'll live to regret it 'Cause you're ancient hist'ry to this heart of mine
So many times I've heard the same old story Any fool can learn to read between the lines And this time honey you've burned all your bridges You're ancient hist'ry to this heart of mine
I've marked you down as just another lonely page In the book of heartaches that you'll leave behind 'Cause I've found out I'm better off without you You're ancient hist'ry to this heart of mine
Café Der Blije Harten Performer(s): Johan Verminnen
Met glazen boterhammen En kriek zo zoet als wijn Thuis wachten de madammen Met soep die koud zal zijn Met wilde commentaren Over sport en politiek Echt niet te evenaren Zo verward maar sympathiek Met woorden als gedichten Op bierkaartjes in 't klein Als SOS berichten Gedrenkt in een moor azijn
In het café der blije harten Aan dit gezellig plein Waar de mannen die biljarten Al jaren vrienden zijn
Met foto's aan de muren En bekers in een kast Met spreekwoorden die duren Het krediet werd afgelast Met een voetbalkalender Wie waagt een pronostiek En elk jaar in december Wordt de spaarkas hier gelicht Met berichten van de duiven Van Quivrin tot in Noyonne Met kaartingen en fuiven En vluchten halve bol
In het café der blije harten Aan dit gezellig plein Waar de mannen die biljarten Al jaren vrienden zijn
Met steeds dezelfde gasten Ze kennen er je naam En als de rekening niet paste Mag je op de spiegel staan Met geen verschil in standen Iedereen is hier thuis En maandag voor de klanten Een rondje van het huis
In het café der blije harten Aan dit gezellig plein Waar de mannen die biljarten Al jaren vrienden zijn
In het café der blije harten Aan dit gezellig plein Waar de mannen die biljarten Al jaren vrienden zijn Hey

Ragazza mia ti spiego gli uomini ti servirà quando li adopererai son tanto fragili, fragili tu maneggiali con cura fatti di briciole, briciole che l'orgoglio tiene su ragazza mia sei bella e giovane ma pagherai ogni cosa che otterrai devi essere forte ma forte perché dipenderà da te tu sei l'amore il calore che avrà la vita che vivrai anche un uomo può sempre avere un'anima ma non credere che l'userà per capire te anche un uomo può essere dolcissimo specialmente se al mondo oramai gli resti solo tu Ragazza mia adesso sai com'è quell'uomo che mi porti via e vuoi per te
Listen Betty (I'm Singing Your Song) Composer(s): Tom T. Hall Performer(s): Dave Dudley
A friend and I made one shot run to Knoxville one day We got the apple pie and coffee hungries on the way We pulled into a little truckstop just outside of town Pretty soon the waitress came around She said my name is Betty and I'd know you anywhere I'd like to have a minute of your time if you don't care Would you sing a song about me and the waitresses you've met About the broken promises we get Now listen Betty I'm singing your song about the drivers that have done you wrong All I wanna do is lay the blame where it belongs listen Betty I'm singing your song
There's a broken heart for every truckstop on the right There's a lonesome driver for each passing set of lights Now I can't tell you how to love or tell you how to live all I can do is tell it like it is There's a million waitresses all up and down the line I've seen some that were laughin' and I've seen some that were cryin' I've left some that were happy and I've left some that were blue If you're a waitress here's a song for you Now listen Betty...
The highway is a part of hell that never caught on fire The driver is the kinda man that devil wouldn't hire That's what you're sayin' Betty but you can't stand the heat Quit that job and let those drivers be Now listen Betty... Now listen Betty...

Anche Per Te Composer(s): Lucio Battisti - Mogol First release by: Lucio Battisti - 1971 Covered by multiple other artists
Per te che è ancora notte già prepari il tuo caffè che ti vesti senza più guardar lo specchio dietro te che poi entri in chiesa e preghi piano e intanto pensi al mondo ormai per te così lontano
Per te che di mattina torni a casa tua perché per strada più nessuno ha freddo e cerca più di te per te che metti i soldi accanto a lui che dorme e aggiungi ancora un po' d'amore a chi non sa che farne
Anche per te, vorrei morire ed io morir non so anche per te, darei qualcosa che non ho e così, e così, e così io resto qui a darle i miei pensieri, a darle quel che ieri avrei affidato al vento, cercando di raggiungere chi... al vento avrebbe detto sì
Per te che di mattina svegli il tuo bambino e poi lo vesti lo accompagni a scuola e al tuo lavoro vai per te che un errore ti è costato tanto che tremi nel guardare un uomo e vivi di rimpianto
Dancing In The Starlight Composer(s): Matt Clifford; Mick Jagger Performer(s): Mick Jagger
I was tossing and a turning Like as ship out in the storm And I could not feel the spirit There was nothing there at all And I could not dial the number And I could not make the call
Dancing in the starlight Dancing in the strangest forms And I could not feel the spirit Was a thousand miles off course
Stumbling in the twilight There was no one there at all I was groping in the darkness Seeing dangers in the port Tortured into silence My back against the wall
Dancing in the starlight Swirling in the walls Just like Venus on the ocean The figures on the wall
If you don't take risks If you don't take a chance You're bound to fall Oh yeah sugar You will surely fall
Crying for salvation There was nothing there at all I could not dial the number And I could not make the call
Dancing in the starlight The figures on the wall You will surely fall Dancing in the starlight You will surely fall You will surely fall
Anastasia Composer(s): Herb Newman - Paul F. Webster Performer(s): Pat Boone
Anastasia, tell me who you are Are you someone from another star Anastasia, are you what you seem Do your sad eyes remember a dream
Why do you tremble and why do you sigh Could you be lonely as lonely as I Will you remember when summer has flown Another world, a world that is yours alone
Anastasia, smile away the past Anastasia, spring is here at last Beautiful stranger step down from your star I only know I love you so, whoever you are
Anastasia, Anastasia Beautiful stranger step down from your star I only know I love you so, whoever you are
