Eu sei que existe por aí Uma andorinha solta Procurando um verão que se perdeu no tempo Cansou de ser herói do espaço E quer a companhia de outros pássaros É que o seu coração de ave Não agüenta tanta solidão Eu sei que eu ando por aí Sou andorinha solta E nem sei a estação em que estou vivendo Não quero ser herói de nada Só quero a companhia de outros braços É que meu coração de homem Voa alto como um pássaro
Don't Keep Me Wonderin' Composer(s): Gregg Allman Composer(s): The Allman Brothers Band; Keri Leigh; Buddy Miles
Oh, tell me 'bout the car I saw parked outside your door tell me what you left me waiting two or three hours for Tell me why when the phone rings baby you're up and across the floor please don't keep me wonderin' no longer I think about the bad times Lord I think about yours and mine you were lost in the silver spoon thought I pulled you out in time And I hope that you got reasons for the way that you've been lyin' please don't keep me wonderin' no longer I think I'm gonna go now but you know that I'll be back Now you can think it over Baby tell me how you're gonna act I'm gonna keep on holding on but I don't get no stronger please don't keep me wonderin' no longer
Don't Just Stand There Composer(s): Lor Crane - Bernice Ross Performer(s): Patty Duke
Please don't just stand there Come and kiss me like before Please don't just stand there Looking down at the floor If something is wrong Give me just one little sign Is there someone else Please tell me Tell me what what what what's on your mind Once when we'd meet You'd run to hold me tight Life was so sweet Until tonight Please don't just stand there Get it over if we're through Please don't just stand there While my heart breaks in two Don't be unfair How can you be so unkind Please stop hurting me And help me Tell me what what what what's on your mind Note:Rhythm changes here If it's a game We don't want to play it And if it's goodbye Why can't you just say it Why make me cry like you do How can you be so unkind Please start loving me Or leave me Tell me what what what what's on your mind
Don't just stand there
(Now Patty singing "Tell me what what what what's on your mind" alternates with the chorus singing "Don't just stand there" over and over as the song fades away)
Avant Nous Composer(s): René Rouzaud - Marguerite Monnot Performer(s): Edith Piaf
Un printemps meurt, en vient un autre Et tout change, et tout est pareil Le bonheur n'est pas le nôtre Pas plus que le soleil Écoute, écoute dans le monde Cet orchestre de curs battants De partout ils se répondent Depuis combien de temps?
Avant nous D'autres amants ont dit: "Je t'aime" Comme nous... Avant nous D'autres ont souffert, ont trahi même Comme... Non! Ne crois pas ça! Ne crois pas ça! L'amour n'est pas cette misère L'amour, c'est toi entre mes bras... Avant nous D'autres ont dansé sur des "Je t'aime" Comme nous... Avant nous D'autres se sont quittés quand même Comme... Non! Pas comme nous... Ne crois pas ça! On a dansé sur toute la terre Et l'on dansera sur ces mots-là
Aimons-nous Comme ceux-là qui tant s'aimèrent Comme nous Et comme ceux qui nous suivront Et comme ceux qui s'aimeront... Après nous...
Don't Jump Off The Roof, Dad
Performer(s): Homer & Jethro
Daddy came home from work tired His boss had been driving him mad The kids were all shouting, the dog bit him too His dinner was nothing but boiled over stew
I guess it was then he decided Up to the rooftop he'd go He was about to jump off when The kids started howling below
'Don't jump off the roof, Dad You'll make a hole in the yard Mother's just planted petunias The weeding and seeding was hard
If you must end it all, Dad Won't you please give us a break Just take a walk down the park, Dad And there you can jump in the lake
Avant l'heure, c'est pas l'heure Après l'heure, c'est plus l'heure Je l'ai rencontré un peu trop tard Il avait déjà vu Germaine Il m'a aimée pendant cinq semaines Je me foutais du tiers comme du quart Et puis un jour, il a compris Il m'a menti encore trois semaines Puis il est allé vers Germaine Ah mes enfants! Qu'est-ce que j'ai pris!... J' lui en veux pas... Que faire à ça? Avant l'heure, c'est pas l'heure Après l'heure, c'est plus l'heure Quand on dit "moins l' quart", c'est moins le quart! Je l'ai rencontré un peu trop tard!
Pierre aime la femme de Jean Jean aime la femme de Pierre La femme de Pierre aime un sergent La femme de Jean aime un notaire Qu'est-ce qu'ils espèrent Ces pauvres gens? Si la femme de Pierre avait vu le sergent Avant de rencontrer Pierre... Si la femme de Jean avait vu le notaire Avant de rencontrer Jean... Ce serait une toute autre affaire! 'y aurait du bonheur à Nogent Au lieu qu'on y pleure...
L'heure, c'est l'heure...
Avant l'heure, c'est pas l'heure Après l'heure, c'est plus l'heure Quand on dit "moins l' quart", c'est moins l' quart! Je l'ai rencontré un peu trop tard!
Don't It Make You Want To Go Home
Composer(s): Joe South
First release by: Joe South and the Believers - 1969
Covered by multiple other artists
Oh, the whippoorwill roosts on the telephone pole And the Georgia sun goes down Well, it's been a long, long time but I'm glad that I'm Goin' back to my home town
Goin' down to the Greyhound station Gonna buy me a one-way fare And if the good Lord's willin' and the creeks don't rise By tomorrow, ah, I'm gonna be there
Don't it make you want to go home? Don't it make you want to go home? All God's children get weary when they roam Don't it make you want to go home?
There's a six-lane highway down by the creek Where I went skinny-dippin' as a child And a drive-in show where the meadows used to grow And the strawberries used to grow wild
There's a drag strip down by the riverside Where my grandma's cow used to graze Now the grass don't grow and the river don't flow Like it did in my childhood days
(Don't it make you wanna go home?) (Don't it make you wanna go home?) All God's children get weary when they roam (Don't it make you) wanna, wanna go home?
"It's different, it's different, it's different, so different now" "Don't it make you wanna go home?" "But all God's children get weary when they roam, and don't it make you wanna go home?"
"Don't it make you wanna to go home don't it make you wanna go home And now-ah, don't it make you wanna go home, don't it make you wanna go home?" All of God's children get weary when they roam (Don't it make you) "And" (want to go home?) I'm goin' home
Avant La Guerre ((English & German Versions: To Be A Soldier (by Charles Aznavour); Vor Dem Winter (by Charles Aznavour)) Composer(s): Charles Aznavour Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
J'avais vingt ans une âme tendre Toi seize tout à apprendre Quand je t'écrivais des poèmes Où tout rimait avec je t'aime Tu étais encore écolière C'était un peu avant la guerre
À l'orée de l'adolescence Le désir bouscule l'enfance Dans l'herbe d'un printemps précoce On s'est uni en simples noces Notre témoin fut Dieu le père C'était un peu avant la guerre
Mais au vent des amours fautives Ce qui doit arriver arrive Ta taille prit de l'importance On nous maria de toute urgence Mais un jour les choses changèrent C'était un peu avant la guerre
Un uniforme sans retouche Un fusil et quatre cartouches Les champs brûlés de la retraite Les barbelés de la défaite Quelque part en terre étrangère Je nous revois avant la guerre
Où sont les seize ans de ta vie Et les printemps de nos folies Quand pour nous s'ouvraient sur la chance Les portes d'or de l'insouciance Et que tout brillait de lumière Avant la nuit, avant la guerre Avant la guerre
Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue
Composer(s): Richard Leigh
First release by: Crystal Gayle - 1977
Covered by multiple other artists
Don't know when I've been so blue Don't know what's come over you You've found someone new And don't it make my brown eyes blue
I didn't mean to treat you bad I didn't know just what I had But honey now I do And don't it make my brown eyes blue
Tell me some secrets, tell me some lies Give me reasons, give me alibis Say that you love me and don't make me cry Say anything, but don't say goodbye
I'll be fine when you're gone I'll just cry the whole night long Say it isn't true And don't it make my brown eyes blue I said Don't it make my brown eyes Don't it make my brown eyes don't it make my brown eyes blue
To Be A Soldier ((French & German Versions: Avant La Guerre (by Charles Aznavour); (by Vor Dem Winter (by Charles Aznavour)) Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - Herbert Kretzmer Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
She was a girl of sixteen summers And I was scarcely any older To see her once was but to love her To love and cherish, and discover My every thought was only of her Before I went to be a soldier
T'was a time of young confusion When blood runs hot and boys grow bolder And all that summer long I chased her Until she turned, until I faced her On days of parties I embraced her Before I went to be a soldier
There was a baby born in springtime I wasn't there to see or hold her The bugles called and I was sent for To play the game that blood is spent for The ancient game that youth is meant for To be a man, to be a soldier
On foreign fields I've seen the slaughter Of hot young boys who now grow colder Where still in a fire burning blindly Where only poppies still remind me Of shining summer days behind me Before I went to be a soldier
When I close my eyes and see my lover A child asleep against her shoulder A child of love whose life we started When hope was new and open-hearted A time that even more departed The day I went to be a soldier
Don't Interrupt The Sorrow
Composer(s): Joni Mitchell
First release by: Joni Mitchell - 1975
Don't interrupt the sorrow Darn right In flames our prophet witches Be polite A room full of glasses He says "You're notches liberation doll" And he chains me with that serpent To that Ethiopian wall
Anima rising Queen of Queens Wash my guilt of Eden Wash and balance me Anima rising Uprising in me tonight She's a vengeful little goddess With an ancient crown to fight
Truth goes up in vapors
The steeples lean Winds of change patriarchs Snug in your bible belt dreams God goes up the chimney
Like childhood Santa Claus The good slaves love the good book A rebel loves a cause
I'm leaving on the 1:15
You're darn right Since I was seventeen I've had no one over me
He says "Anima rising So what Petrified wood process Tall timber down to rock"
Don't interrupt the sorrow Darn right He says "We walked on the moon You be polite" Don't let up the sorrow
Death and birth and death and birth He says "Bring that bottle kindly And I'll pad your purse
I've got a head full of quandary And a mighty mighty thirst"
Seventeen glasses Rhine wine Milk of the Madonna Clandestine He don't let up the sorrow He lies and he cheats It takes a heart like Mary's these days When your man gets weak
Don't Hang Up

Don't hang up (No No) Oh don't you do it now, don't hang up (No No) Don't hang up like you always do I know you think our love is true I'll explain the facts to you, don't hang up
Give me a chance or our romance is through Don't hang up Oh don't you do it now, don't hang up
I took a walk with Mary Lou I ran around to visit Sue She had some boys I never knew Don't hang up They took a ride so baby I went too
Stopped at the record hop I had to be a sport We jumped and we did the slop Then you walked in....and I was caught Don't hang up Oh don't you do it now Don't hang up
A- you got some explain'in too A like that chick I saw with you So talk fast like you always do Don't hang up, you've got one chance or our romance is through
Then you walked in and you were caught Don't hang up Oh don't you do it now don't hang up
I didn't say our love was through But if we made a fool for two 'Cause making up is fun to do Don't hang up
'Cause no one else will ever do but you Don't hang up Oh don't you do it now Or you'll be sorry baby You know I love you baby
Avant De T'en Aller Composer(s): Françoise Hardy - Paul Anka Performer(s): Françoise Hardy
Avant de t'en aller Tu devrais mieux penser À ce que tu fais Avant qu'il soit trop tard Es-tu sûr de savoir Tout ce que tu fais

Avant de t'en aller As-tu réalisé Tout ce que tu fais Une dernière fois Pense à toi, pense à moi À ce que tu fais Ce que tu fais, ce que tu fais Pense à ce que tu fais, Ce que tu fais, ce que tu fais...

Avant De Te Connaître Composer(s): Bob Ardey - Mya Simille Performer(s): Dalida
Avant de te connaître Je tombais amoureuse Avant de te connaître Ses bras étaient sa douce chaîne Et son regard me captivait Et mon corps attaché au sien Etait l'esclave de ses mains
Avant de te connaître Je tombais amoureuse Avant de te connaître J'étais enchaînée par ses bras Prise, captive auprès de lui J'étais asservie à sa loi Toujours soumise à mon désir Notre amour était ma prison Avant de te connaître, avant de te connaître
Mais le jour est venu Le jour où le destin A uni nos chemins
Par toi je m'élève amoureuse Je grandis amoureuse, je suis libre amoureuse Tu m'as délivré par l'amour L'amour qui donne au lieu de prendre Tes bras sans mon appui, ton regard ma lumière Et mon corps, par ta grâce Devient auprès de toi transparent à la vie Par toi je grandis amoureuse Par toi je m'élève amoureuse Mon bonheur se réouvre au monde Et je découvre un autre amour
Immense, infini, éternel Plus grand que toi et moi Et qui m'emmène à Dieu

Build your dreams to the stars above But when you need someone to love Don't go to strangers, darling, come to me
Play with fire till your fingers burn And when there's no place for you to turn Don't go to strangers, darling, come to me
For, when you hear a call to follow your heart You'll follow your heart I know I've been through it all, for I'm an old hand And I'll understand if you go
So... Make your mark for your friends to see But when you need more than company Don't go to strangers, darling, come to me
Avant De T'aimer Composer(s): Charles Aznavour Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Avant de t'aimer je croyais que les femmes étaient des églises Comme aux quatre coins de Venise et qu'on pouvait les visiter Avant de t'aimer je disais qu'elles n'étaient que gourmandise Comme le sont les friandises et qu'on pouvait les partager
Avant de t'aimer je croyais que les femmes étaient des chapelles Enfermées dans les citadelles offertes au voeu de chasteté Avant de t'aimer je pensais que les femmes étaient sans cervelle Qu'elles n'étaient que des modèles pour un pinceau pour un maillet
Avant de t'aimer je croyais que les femmes étaient des paroisses Appartenant au garde-chasse qui piège et bague son gibier Avant de t'aimer je doutais des femmes et de ce qu'elles apportent Quand elles referment la porte sans un regard sans un regret
Mais aujourd'hui femmes je sais que vous êtes des cathédrales Femmes fourmis femmes cigales femmes faites pour être aimer Femme espérance soit louée toi que j'imaginais naïve Tu m'as sauvé de la dérive des larmes où mon coeur se noyait
Avant de t'aimer je croyais que les femmes étaient des églises Comme aux quatre coins de Venise et qu'on pouvait les visiter Mais c'était avant de t'aimer c'était bien avant de t'aimer
