Une femme pleure son enfant perdu à tout jamais Elle se souvient du temps passé où l'enfant lui disait Maman maman quand m'achèteras-tu un train électrique? Je le voudrais pour ne plus jouer avec celui des copains
Une femme pleure son enfant perdu à tout jamais Elle se souvient du temps passé où l'enfant lui disait Maman maman aujourd'hui c'est ta fête Pour toi je suis allé cueillir ces petites fleurs Qui te porteront bonheur ce ne sont que des coquelicots
Une femme pleure son enfant perdu à tout jamais Elle se souvient du temps passé où l'enfant lui chantait Ta ba dou...

As coisas estão passando mais depressa O ponteiro marca 120 O tempo diminui As árvores passam como vultos A vida passa O tempo passa Estou a 130 As imagens se confundem Estou fugindo de mim mesmo Fugindo do passado Do meu mundo assombrado De tristeza De incerteza Estou a 140 Fugindo de você
Eu vou voando pela vida Sem querer chegar Nada vai mudar meu rumo Nem me fazer voltar
Vivo fugindo sem destino algum Sigo caminhos que me levam a lugar nenhum
O ponteiro marca 150 Tudo passa ainda mais depressa O amor, a felicidade O vento afasta uma lágrima Que começa a rolar no meu rosto Estou a 160 Vou acender os faróis Já é noite Agora são as luzes que passam por mim Sinto um vazio imenso Estou só na escuridão A 180 Estou fugindo de você
Eu vou sem saber pra onde Nem quando vou parar Não, não deixo marcas no caminho Pra não saber voltar
Às vezes sinto que o mundo se esqueceu de mim Não, não sei por quanto tempo ainda Eu vou viver assim
O ponteiro agora marca 190 Por um momento tive a sensação de ter você a meu lado O banco está vazio Estou só A 200 por hora Vou parar de pensar em você pra prestar atenção na estrada
Mamaïéba Composer(s): Alfredo Larios; Roger Loubet Performer(s): Nana Mouskouri
Gentle breeze blows, so softly wakes the morning (wakes the morning) The air is still, see the night is yawning (night is yawning) Feel the warmth of the first shy yellow sun rays falling (sun rays falling) Hear the birds sing, a newborn day are calling
In this life filled with loneliness and sorrow (sorrow) Where dark are the dreams
and the paths are narrow (paths are narrow) Let your heart, freedom, peace, love, tenderness to follow (to follow) Singing these words: "Think of a new tomorrow"
Children's laughter around with smiling faces (smiling faces) Like flowers bloom, know no tribes or races (tribes or races) Give them love, give them hope and music from all places (from all places) Eagles fly high, always to find new spaces

They tell me you're a shy boy But I want you just the same Don't play innocent with me You know it's not just fun and games When I look into your eyes So much passion burns inside But if you need some coaxing I will do it Step by step there's nothing to it

Mama, Mag Mijn Popje Naar De Hemel Composer(s): Cy Coben; Bobbejaan Schoepen; Louis Verbeeck Performer(s): Bobbejaan Schoepen
Marleentje was een jaar of drie Zij ging vaak spelen met haar popje op de straat En toen een wagen kwam die plotseling vergeefs nog had geremd Hield zij haar pop krampachtig vast geklemd
M'n lij haar toen in een wit bed Daar lag ze bleekjes met haar popje in haar arm Zij kon niet horen wat de dokter tot haar moeder zachtjes zei En smeken en vol pijn fluisterde zij
Mammie, mag m'n popje naar de hemel met me mee Mammie, mag m'n popje naar de hemel met me mee Zijn de engeltjes soms boos Kijk het slaapt gelijk een roos Mammie, mag m'n popje naar de hemel met me mee
Nu slaapt ze stil, maar voor altijd Haar kleine pop naast haar zoals ze had gevraagd En in de nacht zit er een moeder eenzaam naast een lege bed Zij hoort een kinderstem die zachtjes klaagt
Oh, mammie, mag m'n popje naar de hemel met me mee Mammie, mag m'n popje naar de hemel met me mee Zijn de engeltjes soms boos Kijk het slaapt gelijk een roos Mammie, mag m'n popje naar de hemel met me mee
Zijn de engeltjes soms boos Kijk het slaapt gelijk een roos Mammie, mag m'n popje naar de hemel met me mee

And life being what it is She'll be round in time And time changing like it does Oh, won't change my mind about my lady so real I said, my lady can feel And ain't it like walkin' out through the pourin' rain To meet the morning train
---- Instrumental Interlude ----

Mama Used To Say Composer(s): Bob Carter; Junior Giscombe Originally performed by: Junior Giscombe
Ooh Yeah, girl
Said a small boy once asked When will I grow up When will I see what grownups do see... In his fight to come of age, he would have to know the age To be recognized is when I'm not unmasked
And mama used to say Take your time, young man... Mama used to say Don't you rush to get old... Mama used to say Take it in your stride... Mama used to say Live your life...
As the years went rushin' by he would cut down on his age He would tell his girl of how it used to be How his mommy passed away, but these lines she would say And at the time he couldn't understand
Mama used to say Take your time, young man... Mama used to say Don't you rush to get old... Mama used to say Take it in your stride... Mama used to say Live your life...
You're young, so young, don't hold on back Do all you want to do Now is the time for you to stride For you to get better in what you are doin', oh
Now is the time for you to stride For you to get better in what you are doin', oh
A small boy once asked When will I grow up When will I see what grownups do see ... In his fight to come of age, he would have to know the age To be recognized is when I'm not unmasked
And mama used to say Take your time, young man ... Mama used to say Don't you rush to get old ... Mama used to say Take it in your stride ... Mama used to say Live your life, live your life, live your life, oh ...
Hey, mama used to say Take your time, young man ... Mama used to say Don't you rush to get old ... Mama used to say Take it in your stride ... Mama used to say Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey ...
