Stretto A Te ((Adapted from: (They Long To Be) Close To You (Richard Chamberlain) - 1963)) ((Dutch Version: Bij Je Zijn (Simone Kleinsma) - 2009)) Composer(s): Burt Bacharach - Hal David - Sergio Bardotti Performer(s): Ornella Vanoni - 2002
Che cos'é Stasera il mio gattino Ti si struscia sul cuscinho Come me Gli piace stare stretto a te
E perché Questa bianca luna Acompagnha la tua mano Su di me le piace stare Stretta a te
Il giorno che sei nato Tutti gli angeli han giurato Che l'immagine dell'anima eri tu Con uno spruzzo d'oro nei capelli E un pó di cielo nel tuoi occhi blú
E perché tanta gente intorno Cerca a te notte e giorno Come me le piace stare Stretta a te
Il giorno che sei nato Tutti gli angeli han giurato Che l'immagine dell'anima eri tu Con uno spruzzo d'oro nei capelli E un pó di cielo nel tuoi occhi blú
E perché tanta gente intorno Cerca a te notte e giorno Come me le vá di stare Stretta a te
More Today Than Yesterday Composer(s): Pat Upton Originally performed by: Spiral Starecase Covered by various other artists
I don't remember what day it was I didn't notice what time it was All I know is that I fell in love with you And if all my dreams come true I'll be spending time with you
Every day's a new day in love with you With each day comes a new way of loving you Every time I kiss your lips my mind starts to wander And if all my dreams come true I'll be spending time with you
Oh, I love you more today than yesterday But not as much as tomorrow I love you more today than yesterday But, darling, not as much as tomorrow
Tomorrow's date means springtime's just a day away Cupid, we don't need ya now, be on your way I thank the lord for love like ours that grows ever stronger And I always will be true I know you feel the same way too
Oh, I love you more today than yesterday But not as much as tomorrow I love you more today than yesterday But only half as much as tomorrow

Versions In Other Languages: 1964 - Toujours Un Coin Qui Me Rappelle (Eddy Mitchell) 1966 - Il Mondo Nei Tuoi Occhi (Gianni Morandi) 2007 - Altijd Iets (Amaryllis Temmerman)
I walk along the city streets you used to walk with me and every step I take recalls how much in love, we used to be
Oh, how can I forget you when there is always something there to remind me always something there to remind me
I was born to love you, and I will never be free you'll always be a part of me
When shadows fall, I pass a small cafe where we would dance at night and I can't help recalling how it felt to kiss and hold you tight
Oh, how can I forget you when there is always something there to remind me always something there to remind me
I was born to love you, and I will never be free you'll always be a part of me
If you should find you miss the sweet and tender love we used to share just go back to the places where we used to go and I'll be there
Oh, how can I forget you when there is always something there to remind me always something there to remind me
I was born to love you, and I will never be free when there is, when there is when there is always something there to remind me ...

Versions In Other Languages: 1966 - Il Mondo Nei Tuoi Occhi (Gianni Morandi) 2007 - Altijd Iets (Amaryllis Temmerman)
Je marche seul le long des rues Où nous allions tous deux avant A chaque pas je me souviens Comme on s'aimait auparavant Comment pouvoir t'oublier?
Il y a toujours un coin qui me rappelle Toujours un coin qui me rappelle Je suis né pour t'aimer Et je serai toujours ainsi Tu restes la vie de ma vie
Quand l'ombre vient, mon pas m'entraîne Où on allait danser le soir Je me revois là t'embrassant Et serrant fort tous mes espoirs Comment pouvoir t'oublier?
Il y a toujours un coin qui me rappelle Toujours un coin qui me rappelle Je suis né pour t'aimer Et je serai toujours ainsi Tu restes la vie de ma vie
Mais si ton cur regrette un jour Ce grand amour que l'on vivait Reviens alors dans cet endroit Où l'on allait, j'y serai Comment pouvoir t'oublier?
Il y a toujours un coin qui me rappelle Toujours un coin qui me rappelle Je suis né pour t'aimer Et je serai toujours ainsi Tu restes la vie de ma vie
Je n'aimerai personne d'autre! Je n't'oublierai pas pour une autre! Tu restes la vie de ma vie!
More Than Words Composer(s): Nuno Bettencourt; Gary Cherone Originally performed by: Extreme Covered by various other artists
Sayin "I love you" is not the words I want to hear from you It's not that I want you not to say but if you only knew how easy it would be to show me how you feel more than words is all you have to do to make it real then you wouldn't have to say that you love me 'cause I'd already know
What would you do if my heart was torn in two? more than words to show you feel that your love for me is real What would you say if I took those words away? Then you couldn't make things new just by sayin' "I love you"
la di da da da di da da di da..etc...
Now that I have tried to talk to you and make you understand all you have to do is close your eyes and just reach out your hands and touch me, hold me close don't ever let me go more than words is all i ever needed you to show then you wouldn't have to say that you love me 'cause I'd already know

Io vado solo dove ieri camminavo insieme a te e vedo ancora tutto quello che vedevo insieme a te ed è così diverso perchè io guardavo il mondo con i tuoi occhi e vivevo nelle tue braccia
siamo nati insieme e senza te non vivo più perchè io
guardo il mondo con i tuoi occhi e la sera nella strada dove manchi solo tu ed ho paura della notte e dei sogni che farò sarà così diverso e che io
guardavo il mondo con i tuoi occhi e vivevo nelle tue braccia siamo nati insieme e senza te non vivo più perchè io
guardavo il mondo con i tuoi occhi ma da lontano sono sicuro che anche tu mi pensi un pò non tornerai ma come tu mi manchi io ti mancherò e se non puoi confessa
che ieri guardavi il mondo con i miei occhi e vivevi nelle mie braccia siamo nati insieme e senza me tu non vivrai perchè tu guardavi il mondo con i miei occhi ed io guardavo con i tuoi occhi perchè tu guardavi il mondo con i miei occhi Invia la suoneria 'Il Mondo Nei Tuoi Occhi'
More Than This Composer(s): Bryan Ferry Originally performed by: Roxy Music Covered by various other artists
I could feel at the time There was no way of knowing Fallen leaves in the night Who can say where they're blowing As free as the wind And hopefully learning Why the sea on the tide Has no way of turning
More than this - there is nothing More than this - tell me one thing More than this - there is nothing
It was fun for a while There was no way of knowing Like a dream in the night Who can say where we're going No care in the world Maybe I'm learning Why the sea on the tide Has no way of turning
More than this - there is nothing More than this - tell me one thing More than this - there is nothing
(That's Why They Call Me) Shine Composer(s): Ford Dabney - Cecil Mack - Lew Brown Performer(s): John William "Bubbles" Sublett
When I was born they christened me plain Samuel Johnson Brown I hadn't grown so very tall, 'fore some folks in this town Had changed it 'round to "Sambo" I was "Rastus" to a few Then "Chocolate Drop" was added by some others that I knew And then to cap the climax, I was strolling down the line When someone shouted, "Fellas, hey! Come on and pipe the shine!" But I don't care a bit Here's how I figure it
Well, just because my hair is curly And just because my teeth are pearly Just because I always wear a smile Likes to dress up in the latest style Just because I'm glad I'm livin' Takes trouble smilin', never whine Just because my color's shady Slightly different maybe That's why they call me shine
More Than That Tommorow Composer(s): Jim Croce; Ingrid Croce Performer(s): Jim Croce
Hey love, don't be afraid to stay until tomorrow The lover's dawn is waiting just this side of day If you thought I loved you yesterday I'll love you more than that tomorrow
Hey love, don't be afraid to hear the songs of morning Birds will sings them as they're calling up the day If I sang to you yesterday I'll sing more than that tomorrow
If it should happen that you come to me In the night we share our hearts Whatever it is that you done to me Between you and me, can't be undone
If I should understand just why I need you by me Then I would know the reasons for the songs of mornin' 'Cause if I wanted you yesterday If in the nights we shared our hearts Whatever it is that you done to me Between you and me, can't be undone
Hey love, don't be afraid to stay until tomorrow The lover's dawn is waiting just this side of day If you thought I loved you yesterday I'll love you more than that tomorrow
If you thought I loved you yesterday I'll love you more than that tomorrow
More Than Just A Joy Performer(s): Aretha Franklin
Youre more than just a joy, baby Youre more than just a joy, baby
Loving you tenderly is just what I need for me Oh, the way you warm my buns sweet Honey begins to run

Nå sola jage natta bort Så kryp du godt innte mæ Og gjømt e aill de tunge tankan Dæm æ hadd i går I liv og latter spør du mæ Om regnet og om sola Og svaran Som æ gir dæ E itj dæm æ hadd I går
Sola som gikk ned i kveld Ho ska skin før dæ min kjære Og føglan som e fri Dæm ska vis veg Og ailt ska bli Mijtti lys og myjtti varme Tru og håp Det kain du få med Mange tåra Tunge stunde E æ redd før at det bli

Lyin' In A Bed Of Fire Composer(s): Steven Van Zandt Performer(s): Little Steven & the Disciples of Soul
Where does all the smoke come from baby Ain't it hard to see through it Don't it hurt your eyes to try It was so much easier yesterday When all we had to do was survive
Well it's trust somebody or we're all goin' down baby But the neighborhood ain't what it used to be In case you ain't looked lately You wait and pray, maybe it'll all go away It clings like a curse But being nowhere is worse
We're lyin' in a bed of fire Did we come all this way just to blow it We're lyin' in a bed of fire We're burnin' and we don't even know it We're lyin' in a bed of fire If you want to keep what you got then defend her We're lyin' in a bed of fire Better wake up now or surrender
Whatever happened to everybody I heard talkin' so loud All the changes that never came to be I've still got that same old bad taste in my mouth Somebody took something that once belonged to me
Well it may not be in my best interest to be pointing my finger But I'm still pointing my finger right at you Take control or keep following blind I'm trying to get straight but I'm running out of time
We're lyin' in a bed of fire Can't you feel the heat all around us We're lyin' in a bed of fire The flames threatening to drown us
Had me a real bad dream last night This morning my bad dream was alive walking the streets of New York City Somebody has to face this thing somehow There's no one left but us now We're all just lyin' in a bed of fire
Lyin' Eyes Composer(s): Glenn Fry - Don Henley First release by: Eagles - 1975 Covered by multiple other artists
City girls just seem to find out early How to open doors with just a smile A rich old man and she won't have to worry She'll dress up all in lace and go in style
Late at night that big old house gets lonely I guess every form of refuge has it's price And it breaks her heart to think her love is only Given to a man with hands as cold as ice
So she tells him she must go out for the evening To comfort an old friend who's feeling down But he knows where she's going as she's leaving She is headed for the cheatin' side of town
You can't hide your lyin' eyes And your smile is a thin disguise I thought by now you'd realize There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes
On the other side of town a boy is waiting With fiery eyes and dreams no one could steal She drives on through the night anticipating Cause he makes her feel the way she used to feel
She rushes to his arms, they fall together She whispers that it's only for a while She swears that soon she'll be coming back forever She goes away and leaves him with a smile
You can't hide your lyin' eyes And your smile is a thin disguise I thought by now you'd realize There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes
She gets up and pours herself a strong one And stares out at the stars up in the sky Another night that's gonna be a long one She draws the shade and hangs her head to cry
She wonders how it ever got this crazy She thinks about a boy she knew in school Did she get tired, or did she just get lazy She's so far gone, she feels just like a fool
My, oh my, you sure know how to arrange things You set it up so well, so carefully Ain't it funny you knew how life didn't change things You're still the same old girl you used to be
You can't hide your lyin' eyes And your smile is a thin disguise I thought by now you'd realize There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes
