Lovin' Every Minute Of It Composer(s): Robert John "Mutt" Lange Performer(s): Loverboy

Mon Émouvant Amour English & Italian Title: Quiet Love; Mio Commovente Amor Composer(s): Charles Aznavour Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Tu vis dans un silence éternel et muet Où je traduis tes regards et lis dans tes sourires Interprétant les mots que tes mains veulent dire Dans ton language étrange qui semble être un ballet
Un émouvant ballet que tu règles pour moi De gestes façinants qui ne sont jamais les mêmes Et quand du bout des doigts tu murmures je t'aime J'ai l'impression parfois comme entendre ta voix

The one, the one, the one, the one The one we used to play so long ago
Get out those old records Those old phonograph records The ones we used to play so long ago What if they sound scratchy The tunes they really were catchy Remember when you used to love them so I had to play them over and over For my little sleepy head They were your lullaby, your favrite lullaby I tucked you into bed With all those old records Those old phonograph records The ones we used to play so long ago
I remember them all Even though I was small When you turned down every laddie With my heart belongs to daddy I was only knee high But I remember how I Used to cry and cry, not jokin Every time that one got broken Mommy, play the funny one, mommy Hes a funny one - over and over When you tucked me into bed With all those old records They were wonderful then Play them over again The ones we used to play so long ago
The one, the one, the one, the one The ones we used to play so long ago

I have tried in vain never had success So it seems my life is nothing but a mess I have lost my only friend Now it seems I have to start again

Love's Old Sweet Song Composer(s): G. Clifton Bingham - James Molloy Performer(s): Nelson Eddy and multiple other artists
Once in the dear dead days beyond recall When on the world the mists began to fall Out of the dreams that rose in happy throng Low to our hearts love sang an old sweet song And in the dusk where fell the firelight gleam Softly it wove itself into our dream
Just a song at twilight When the lights are low And the flickering shadows Softly come and go Though the heart be weary Sad the day and long Still to us at twilight comes love's old song Comes love's old sweet song
Even today we hear love's song of yore Deep in our hearts it dwells forever more Footsteps may falter, weary grows our way Still we can hear it at the close of day So till the end when life's dim shadows fall Love will be found the sweetest song of all
Just a song at twilight When the lights are low And the flickering shadows Softly come and go
Though the heart be weary Sad the day and long Still to us at twilight comes love's old song Comes love's old sweet song
Mon Credo Composer(s): André Pascal; Paul Mauriat Performer(s): Mireille Mathieu; Paul Mauriat
Oui je crois, qu'une vie ça commence avec un mot d'amour Oui je crois, que la mienne commence à partir de ce jour Oui je crois, à tous les mots d'amour que tu inventes pour moi Oui je crois, tout ce que tu me dis parce que je crois en toi
Aussi vrai qu'avec un peu d'amour on fait tourner la terre Aussi vrai que tes yeux sont ma seule lumière Aussi vrai que ma vie tient au fil de nos joies
Oui je crois, que mes jours n'attendaient qu'un mot d'amour de toi Je crois, que tout l'amour du monde est là quand tu es près de moi J'y crois chaque fois que tu m'ouvres tes bras
Oui je crois, qu'on peut bâtir un monde avec des mots d'amour Oui je crois, que nous ferons ce monde à nous deux chaque jour Oui je crois, qu'il nous faudra mêler nos larmes et nos joies Mais je crois, que j'aimerai la vie si je vis avec toi
Aussi vrai qu'avec un peu d'amour on fait tourner la terre Aussi vrai que tes yeux sont ma seule lumière Aussi vrai que ma vie tient au fil de nos joies
Oui je crois, que mes jours n'attendaient qu'un mot d'amour de toi Je crois, que tout l'amour du monde est là quand tu est là Je crois à chaque vérité qui me viendra de toi...

Non Hai Più ((French Version: Tu N'as Plus (Charles Aznavour)) Composer(s): Calabrese - Charles Aznavour - Garvarentz Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Abbiamo io e te folleggiato qua e là Ma è tempo di andar con più tranquillità Si veste ogni nuova avventura Di non attendibilità E più di una brutta figura La fuga ti risparmierà Non hai più, non hai più La prestanza del tempo che fu Non ti resta una volta di più Che sperare... Non hai più, non hai più La superbia tua prima virtù E, mancando l'ardore che fu Ah, che vuoi fare? Non hai vitalità Sei più triste che mai E non c'è sazietà In quel poco che dai Se ne è andata l'età Delle tua facoltà senza pari Non hai più, non hai più Puoi sognare se vuoi pure tu I ricordi potrai tutt'al più Raccontare Non hai più, non hai più Tante arie da mettere sù Vieni amico, contemplati In uno specchio Non hai più, non hai più Il tuo corpo da "attenta-virtù" E gli sguardi non fremono più Da parecchio Sei quel frutto che ormai Non si raccoglierà Perché spremerlo ormai Per quel poco che dà Ma riposati và E poi campa da povero vecchio Non hai più, non hai più I delitti di lesa virtù Buonanotte all'ardore che fu ... Ed al secchio! Non hai più, non hai più Ma sta' calmo, ragionaci sù Oramai non attaccano più Le promesse Non hai più, non hai più Che da essere papà tutt'al più Queste cose, non ciò che vuoi tu Sono ammesse Sulla fronte che hai Più spaziosa che mai Spunteranno le insegne di regalità Che purtropo però solo ai cervi Natura concesse Non hai più, non hai più Che i discorsi del tempo che fu Stringi femmine come vuoi tu, trepidanti Ma ne devi pagar le virtù In contanti
Lovesick Blues ((French Version: Je Ne Pense Qu'à L'amour (Eddy Mitchell) - 1963)) Composer(s): Irving Mills - Cliff Friend First release by: Elsie Clark - 1922 Covered by multiple other artists
I got a feelin' called the blues Since my baby said good-bye Lawd I don't know what l'll do All I do is sit and sigh That last long day she said goodbye Well Lawd, I thought I would cry She'd do me, she'd do you She's got that kind of lovin' Lawd, I love to hear her When she calls me sweet daddy
Such a beautiful dream I hate to think it's all over I lost my heart it seems I've grown so used to you somehow But I'm nobody's sugar daddy now And I'm lonesome, I got the lovesick blues
I'm in love, I'm in love with a beautiful gal That's whats the matter with me I'm in love, I'm in love with a beautiful gal But she don't care about me
Lawd I tried and tried to keep her satisfied But she just wouldn't stay So now that she is leavin' This is all I say ...
Mon Corps Composer(s): Georges Moustaki Performer(s): Georges Moustaki
Mon corps ce compagnon de jeux et de souffrances Mon corps que je partage et qui revient toujours S'endormir avec moi dans le même silence Épuisé de plaisir et rassasié d'amour
Mon corps cet étranger que parfois j'apprivoise Pour en faire l'offrande à la dame de coeur Qui m'a offert le sien son corps que je pavoise Aux couleurs du valet et celles du joker
Mon corps que je connais depuis mon plus jeune âge Qui n'a que moi au monde et qui veille qur moi Qui reçoit les honneurs et subit les outrages Mon corps mon âme soeur et mon frère siamois
Mon corps ce vagabond qui m'emmène en ballade Insatiable de tout et qui n'a peur de rien D'accord pour la luxure et prêt pour la croisade Capitaine au long cours ou simple galérien
Mon corps ce compagnon de jeux et de souffrances Qui me montre la route quand je perds le nord Qui me suit pas à pas dans toutes mes errances Fidèles l'un à l'autre à la vie à la mort
Get Off My Cloud Composer(s): Mick Jagger; Keith Richards Performer(s): The Rolling Stones; and various other artists
I live in an apartment on the ninety-ninth floor of my block And I sit at home looking out the window Imagining the world has stopped Then in flies a guy who's all dressed up like a Union Jack And says, I've won five pounds if I have his kind of detergent pack
I said, Hey! You! Get off of my cloud Hey! You! Get off of my cloud Hey! You! Get off of my cloud Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd On my cloud, baby
The telephone is ringing, I say, "Hi, it's me Who is there on the line?" A voice says, "Hi, hello, how are you?" Well, I guess I'm doin' fine He says, "It's three a.m., there's too much noise Don't you people ever wanna go to bed? Just 'cause you feel so good, do you have to drive me out of my head?"
I said, Hey! You! Get off of my cloud Hey! You! Get off of my cloud Hey! You! Get off of my cloud Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd On my cloud, baby
I was sick and tired, fed up with this And decided to take a drive downtown It was so very queit and peaceful There was nobody, not a soul around I laid myself out, I was so tired And I started to dream In the morning the parking tickets were just like a flag stuck on my window screen
I said, Hey! You! Get off of my cloud Hey! You! Get off of my cloud Hey! You! Get off of my cloud Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd On my cloud, baby
I said, Hey! You! Get off of my cloud Hey! You! Get off of my cloud Hey! You! Get off of my cloud Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd On my cloud...
Je Ne Pense Qu'à L'amour ((Adapted from: Lovesick Blues (Elsie Clark) - 1922)) Composer(s): Irving Mills - Cliff Friend - Fernand Bonifay Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell - 1963
"Moi, je ne pense quà lAmour Mais lAmour veut-il de moi? Je ne pense quà lAmour Mais lui pense-t-il à moi? Jaimerais pourtant bien rencontrer La fille dont jai toujours rêvé Impatient, je lattends Je lattends depuis longtemps Dans le grand jardin fleuri De mes longues nuits Je ne changerai pas Je ne pense quà lAmour Et cest bien mon droit Car à vingt ans, cest le moment De mener son cur tambour battant Et de vivre sa vie A sa fantaisie Je peux danser, mamuser Essayer de me saouler Dans les rythmes endiablés Je peux rester enfermé Dans ma chambre, sans parler Pendant des soirées Je peux sortir, revenir Fouiller dans mes souvenirs Rien ne peut me guérir Je reste seul, abandonné L Amour ma oublié Mais, je ne pense quà lAmour Car lAmour cest tout pour moi Je ne pense quà lAmour Qui me glisse entre les doigts Jaimerais pourtant bien rencontrer La fille dont jai toujours rêvé Impatient, je lattends Je lattends depuis longtemps Dans le grand jardin fleuri De mes longues nuits Je ne changerai pas Je ne pense quà lAmour Et cest bien mon droit Je ne suis pas celui quon croit Celle qui viendra le comprendra Car je nai quune envie, laimer pour toute la vie Je nai quune envie, laimer pour toute la vie"
