Dein Ist Mein Ganzes Herz
((English Versions: You Are My Heart's Delight (Richard Tauber) - 1931; My Heart Is Yours Alone (Richard Tauber) - 1931))
Composer(s): Franz Lehar - L. Herzer - F. Löhner-Beda
Performer(s): Richard Tauber - 1929
Dein ist mein ganzes Herz! Wo du nicht bist, kann ich nicht sein So, wie die Blume welkt wenn sie nicht küsst der Sonnenschein! Dein ist mein schönstes Lied weil es allein aus der Liebe erblüht Sag mir noch einmal, mein einzig Lieb oh sag noch einmal mir Ich hab dich lieb!
Wohin ich immer gehe ich fühle deine Nähe Ich möchte deinen Atem trinken und betend dir zu Füssen sinken dir, dir allein! Wie wunderbar ist dein leuchtendes Haar! Traumschön und sehnsuchtsbang ist dein strahlender Blick Hör ich der Stimme Klang ist es so wie Musik
Dein ist mein ganzes Herz! Wo du nicht bist, kann ich nicht sein So, wie die Blume welkt wenn sie nicht küsst der Sonnenschein! Dein ist mein schönstes Lied weil es allein aus der Liebe erblüht Sag mir noch einmal, mein einzig Lieb oh sag noch einmal mir Ich hab dich lieb!
Anti-Establishment Man Composer(s): REO Speedwagon Performer(s): REO Speedwagon
Standing by the roadside Old newspaper in my hand Reading yesterday's headlines Nothing new, I said it's all the same Everywhere! I'm the fool of the year and I've been waiting Twenty five years of anticipating I've seen changes in my land
People I'm here to tell you I've been around since the world began Well, Mr. Politician, reform me if you can I'm an anti-establishment man
I'm tired of your treating All of my children the same Everywhere! Spending all that money On a stupid war in Vietnam (When we need it at home)
People I'm here to tell you I think it's 'bout time that the world began (all over!) Well, Mr. Politician, reform me if you can I'm an anti-establishment man

Think you're a big man? I'll treat you like you're a little man

Think you can tell me what to do You know who you're talking to?

Across The Street Composer(s): Charles Calello - Bob Crewe - Harris Performer(s): Lenny O'Henry; The Rockin' Berries
Across the street, there's a party goin' on Laughing and a dancing Ooop romancing Everyone's invited but me I'm feelin' just as sad as can be Across the street
Across the street, through my window I can see There's my best friend Billy Ooop with my Lilly Making out behind my back Like all the other wolves in the pack Across the street
Don't you know you're better off So say your blessings now (or So say you're leaving now) She'll never be faithful to a single guy Oh no no, no no, say it isn't so There ain't no way for me to say goodbye
Across the street going to go and get my Lilly Make her feel silly Ooop knock out Billy There's one thing she's got to learn I'll love her so she'll never return Across the street
Si l'on peut s'aimer d'égal à égal Aujourd'hui Tout envisager d'égal à égal Et les lois, et la vie Si l'on peut parler d'égal à égal Échangeant Toutes les idées d'égal à égal En amis, en amants En faisant cause commune Sans détour Bonne ou mauvaise fortune Je suis pour, je suis pour
Les temps mirifiques Où les filles étaient uniquement des poupées mécaniques Mi-soupir mi-sourire Sans avoir leur mot à dire Sont révolus N'en parlons plus
En femme qui vibre J'ai besoin de vivre librement et trouver l'équilibre Près d'un homme sans complexe Que l'égalité des sexes Et de droits N'affecte pas
Si l'on peut bâtir d'égal à égal L'avenir Et tout consentir d'égal à égal Sans tricher, sans mentir Si l'on peut penser d'égal à égal En amour Et tout partager d'égal à égal Et la nuit, et le jour Comme deux êtres sensibles Sans qu'on soit Toi la flèche moi la cible Dis-le moi, dis-le moi
Faut oublier l'âge Où la femme restait sagement dans l'ombre et le sillage De l'homme seigneur et maître Qui disposait de son être Sans compter Faut pas rêver
Le bellâtre acerbe Qui s'abandonnait superbe- -ment sa conquête sur l'herbe Froissée de coeur et de jupe Tendre fille, pauvre dupe Dégrisée C'est démodé Si l'on peut traiter d'égal à égal Et tout partager d'égal à égal S'unir et s'aimer d'égal à égal Mon amour Je suis pour
Anticipation Composer(s): Carly Simon First release by: Carly Simon - 1971
We can never know about the days to come But we think about them anyway, yay And I wonder if I'm really with you now Or just chasin' after some finer day
Anticipation, anticipation Is makin' me late Is keepin' me waitin'
And I tell you how easy it feels to be with you And how right your arms feel around me But I, I rehearsed those lines just late last night When I was thinkin' about how right tonight might be
Anticipation, anticipation Is makin' me late Is keepin' me waitin'
And tomorrow we might not be together I'm no prophet and I don't know nature's ways So I'll try and see into your eyes right now And stay right here 'cause these are the good old days
(These are the good old days) And stay right here 'cause these are the good old days (These are the good old days) (These are the good old days) (These are the good old days) (These are ... the good old days)
Dégage ((Adapted from: Slow Down (Larry Williams) - 1958)) Composer(s): Larry Williams - Long Chris First release by: Johnny Hollyday - 1975
Tu es un vautour au-dessus de sa proie Parce que tu sens qu'elle s'éloigne de moi Ne la regarde pas avec des yeux comme ça Je peux te dire qu'elle n'est pas encore à toi
Dégage Tu vois, tu vois ce que je veux dire S'il y a un moyen de la garder, je veux le trouver Sans personne Dégage
Il y a quelqu'un de trop dans le pays Tu devrais aller voir ailleurs si j'y suis Si je te vois en tout cas tourner en rond Crois-moi, tu te rappelleras de mon nom
Dégage Tu vois, tu vois ce que je veux dire S'il y a un moyen de la garder, je veux le trouver Sans personne Dégage
Regarde cette fille pour la dernière fois Car ça n'est pas avec toi qu'elle va partir Si tu ne comprends pas il me reste mes poings On pourra te dire que je sais m'en servir
Dégage Tu vois, tu vois ce que je veux dire S'il y a un moyen de la garder, je veux le trouver Sans personne Dégage
Baby I Don´t Care Composer(s): Eddie Bush Performer(s): Carl Mann
You don´t like crazy music You don´t like rockin´ bands You just wanna go to a movie show And sit there holdin´ hands You´re so square But baby, I don´t care
You don´t like hot rod racin´ Or drivin´ late at night You just wanna park where it´s nice and dark You just wanna hold me tight You're so square But baby I don´t care
You don´t know any dance steps that are new But no one else can love like you do I don´t know why my heart flips I only know it does I wonder why I love you baby I guess it´s just because You´re so square Baby I don't care

Antarctica Starts Here Composer(s): John Cale Performer(s): John Cale; David J
The paranoid great movie queen Sits idly fully armed The powder and mascara there A warning light for charm We see her every movie night The strong against the weak The lines come out and struggle with The empty voice that speaks Her heart is oh so tired now Of kindnesses gone by Like broken glasses in a drain Gone down but not well spent The road from barbary to here She sold then stole right back The vanity, insanity her hungry heart forgave The fading brides dull beauty grows Just begging to be seen Beneath the magic lights that reach from Barbary to here Her schoolhouse mind has windows now Where handsome creatures come to watch The anaesthetic wearing off Antarctica starts here
Deeper Well
Composer(s): Dave Ohey - Daniel Lanois - Emmylou Harris
Performer(s): Emmylou Harris
and multiple other artists
The sun burned hot, it burned my eyes Burned so hot I thought I'd died Thought I'd died and gone to hell Lookin' for the water from a deeper well I went to the river but the river was dry I fell to my knees an I looked to the sky I looked to the sky and the spring rain fell I saw the water from a deeper well
Well...lookin' for the water from a deeper well Well...lookin' for the water from a deeper well
I was ready for love I was ready for the money Ready for the blood and ready for the honey Ready for the winnin', ready for the bell Lookin' for the water from a deeper well I found some love and I found some money Found that blood would drip from the honey Found I had a thirst that I could not quell Lookin' for the water from a deeper well
Well...lookin' for the water from a deeper well Well...lookin' for the water from a deeper well
Well I did it for kicks and I did it for faith I did it for lust and I did it for hate I did it for need and I did it for love Addiction stayed on tight like a glove So I ran with the moon and I ran with the night And the three of us were a terrible sight Nipple to the bottle to the gun to the cell To the bottom of a hole of a deeper well
Well...lookin' for the water from a deeper well Well...lookin' for the water from a deeper well
I rocked with the cradle and I rolled with the rage I shook those walls and I rattled that gage I took my trouble down a deadend trail Reachin' out a hand for a holier grail Hey there mama did you carry that load Did you tell your baby 'bout the bend in the road 'Bout the rebel yell 'bout the one that fell Lookin' for the water from a deeper well
Well...lookin' for the water from a deeper well Well...lookin' for the water from a deeper well

Deeper Still
Composer(s): Beth Nielsen Chapman - David Wilcox
Performer(s): Beth Nielsen Chapman; Harry Chapin; David Wilcox
In the tears you gave to me I found a river to an ocean Concrete sky and a stone cold sea Came to where the emptiness cracked open
Then all my fears came crashing through And met the fire of my sorrow But I found my strength in forgiving you I never even knew how far my heart could go
I live my life beyond each death From the deeper well of trust To know that when there's nothing left You will always have what you gave to love
In this life the love you give Becomes the only lasting treasure So that what you lose will be what you win A well that echoes down too deep to measure
A silver coin rings down that well You can never spend too much A diamond echoes deeper still You will always have what you gave to love You will always have what you gave to love
Deeper In Love Composer(s): Dana Meyers; Wardell Potts Jr.; Dominic Leslie Performer(s): Tavares
Keep fallin deeper in love Keep fallin deeper in love
When it comes to love Ive got to be for real I never hesitate to show just how I feel For too often my hearts been filled with pain And it seems Ill never learn to play the game

At times I ask myself just what Im lookin for Girl, I find it all in you and so much more There can be no doubt that youre the one I need Open eyes will see the signs are there to read
Ive got to find a way To break through this dark cloud of indecision My heart says play it safe But Id rather find out what Im missing, so I
Keep fallin deeper in love Deeper in love, deeper in love with you Keep fallin deeper in love Sinkin deeper, no matter what I do
Keep fallin deeper in love I wont let love slip through my hands again Keep fallin deeper in love This time Im holdin on to love, woo...hoo...hoo...
Im fallin deeper Fallin deeper
I was so lost in pride So afraid one day Id have to face rejection But now I realize That it hurts more to lock love inside, and I
Keep fallin deeper in love Deeper in love, deeper in love with you Keep fallin deeper in love No matter what I do, said I
Keep fallin deeper in love Loves really got me hooked this time Keep fallin deeper in love Im fallin deeper in love, said I
Keep fallin deeper in love Deeper in love, deeper in love Keep fallin deeper in love I wont let love slip through my hands again
Keep fallin deeper in love Ooh...hoo...hoo... Keep fallin deeper in love

Soldiers Who Want To Be Heroes number practically zero But there are millions who want to be civilians Soldiers Who Want To Be Heroes number practically zero But there are millions who want to be civilians
Come and take my eldest son, show him how to shoot a gun Wipe his eyes if he starts to cry when the bullets fly Give him a rifle, take his hoe, show him a field where he can go To lay his body down and die without asking why
Soldiers Who Want To Be Heroes number practically zero But there are millions who want to be civilians Soldiers Who Want To Be Heroes number practically zero But there are millions who want to be civilians
Sticks and stones can break your bones; even names can hurt you But the thing that hurts the most is when a man deserts you Dont you think its time to weed the leaders that no longer lead From the people of the land whod like to see their sons again?
Soldiers Who Want To Be Heroes number practically zero But there are millions who want to be civilians Soldiers Who Want To Be Heroes number practically zero But there are millions who want to be civilians
God if men could only see the lessons taught by history That all the singers of this song cannot right a single wrong Let all men of good will stay in the fields they have to till Feed the mouths they have to fill and cast away their arms
Soldiers Who Want To Be Heroes number practically zero But there are millions who want to be civilians Soldiers Who Want To Be Heroes number practically zero But there are millions who want to be civilians Soldiers Who Want To Be Heroes number practically zero But there are millions who want to be civilians Soldiers Who Want To Be Heroes number practically zero But there are millions who want to be civilians Soldiers Who Want To Be Heroes number practically zero But there are millions who want to be civilians
