Someone Composer(s): Bill Tennyson - Alfred Performer(s): Johnny Mathis
Someone really loves you guess who? Someone really needs you guess why? Someone wants to kiss you and hold you tight Someone wants to love you each and every night
Someone wants to say "Hello" I know he'll never let you go When he looks into your eyes I know that you will realize And guess just who that someone must be I know you'll know that someone i-i-is me
(Instrumental first two lines) Someone wants to kiss you and hold you tight Someone wants to love you each and every night
Someone wants to say "He-e-e-ello" I know he'll never let you go When he looks into your eyes I know that you will realize And guess just who that someone must be I know you'll know that someone I know you'll know that someone i-i-is me
Someone Composer(s): Hugh Nicholson Performer(s): Blue
Someone broke the spell that held us together What am I supposed to do If you knew me well then you would never Have fallen in love with two It's the end If you send all your love to him No one knows the feeling that I have down in my heart Nobody knows like me And I can't help revealing what I feel when we're apart No one else can see It's no fun anymore I can never be sure of you Someone broke the spell that held us together What am I supposed to do If you knew me well then you would never Have fallen in love with two Fallen in love with two Fallen, fallen in love with two
Until I Met You Composer(s): Freddie Green; Don Wolf Performer(s): Tony Bennett; and various other artists
I used to be so fancy free but really lonesome as can be Till one lucky day you came my way
I never knew what love was all about Until I met you I used to think there'd never be a girl who'd ever care for me Then what do you know you made it so I never knew what love was all about Until I met you
When you kissed me I felt the seasons change from winter to Spring When you kissed me I lost my reason cause I heard the birds sing I felt like a king And now I have to rub my eyes each time I try to realize That your love is mine ain't it just fine I never knew what love was all about Until I met you Since I found you I feel the entire universe reel
I never knew what love was all about Until I met you I'm the happiest boy cause you bring me nothing but joy I never knew what love was all about Until I met you
When you kissed me I felt the seasons change from winter to Spring When you kissed me I lost my reason cause I heard the birds sing I felt like a king And now I have to rub my eyes each time I try to realize That your love is mine ain't it just fine
I never knew what love was all about Until I met you I never knew what love was all about Until I met you I never knew what love was all about Until I met you
Someone Composer(s): Graham Russell - Guy Allison Performer(s): Air Supply
When you first found love Was it all that you had wanted For a thousand lonely years Was the memory so sweet Now your scented touch brings me Back to the enchanted All shadows fade away The gypsy is complete
Someone is walking beside me Someone is waiting till I say yes I do Someone is living inside me Giving me all that I need and I need you Someone to cry on my shoulder I just want to stay here forever
From the secret pool Did I stare at your reflection Let the water wash away all the battle From my soul For the bride of spring, Do I swear to your protection Today will be the day that never shall Grow old
Someone is walking beside me Someone is waiting till I say yes I do Someone is living inside me Giving me all that I need and I need you Someone to cry on my shoulder I just want to stay here forever
Silence broken and the blackbird is free Only your voice can I hear, speak to me
Someone is walking beside me Someone is waiting till I say yes I do Someone is living inside me Giving me all that I need and I need you Someone to cry on my shoulder I just want to stay here forever

The Real Me Composer(s): Kiev Connolly First performance by: Kiev Connolly & The Missing Passengers - 1989
I call my baby and she tells me that she's leavin' And this time it's for good I can't believe her and I'm sure that there is something That I've misunderstood Yeah, yeah
When she's gone, I'll be standin' here in the rain When she's gone, well, the sun won't shine anyway
Can't you see that it's the real me? Take me as I am or let me be Come to me, discover me Oh, take my hand and you will see it's me
You know the feeling when you're needing And your heart is cold If there's a reason or a meaning Then I ain't been told Yeah, yeah

Can't you see that it's the real me? Take me as I am or let me be Come to me, discover me Oh, take my hand and you will see it's me
Real me, it's the real me Real me, it's the real me
Can't you see that it's the real me? Take me as I am or let me be Come to me, discover me Oh, take my hand and you will see it's me
Mmm... can't you see that it's the real me? Take me as I am or let me be Come to me, discover me Oh, take my hand and you will see it's me

Underdog (Theme Song) Composer(s): W. Watts Biggers; Treadwell Covington; Joseph Harris; Chester Stover Performer(s): Butthole Surfers
There's no need to fear! Underdog is here!
When criminals in this world appear And break the laws that they should fear And frighten all who see or hear The cry goes up both far and near For Underdog! Underdog! Underdog! Underdog!
Speed of lightning, roar of thunder Fighting all who rob or plunder Underdog Underdog!
When in this world the headlines read Of those whose hearts are filled with greed Who rob and steal from those who need To right this wrong with blinding speed Goes Underdog! Underdog! Underdog! Underdog!
Speed of lightning, roar of thunder Fighting all who rob or plunder Underdog Underdog!
Someday, Someway Composer(s): Brian Holland - Lamont Dozier - Freddy Gorman Performer(s): The Marvelettes
Wo wo oh, wo wo oh
Someday, someway I'm gonna tell you how much you mean to me Not now, not for a little while I've gotta make sure that your love is good So you won't take advantage of me Capture my heart & set me free
Someday, someway When you prove to me that it's true love that you feel for me Then I'll, then I'll know that your love is pure and I'll be sure That you won't take advantage of me Capture my heart and set me free (Not now, not now)
Not for a little while I hate to take a chance & lose a perfect romance I know you wonder how long it will be Before I tell you how much you mean to me But before I let myself go, I just gotta know If your love, dear, is really real
Underneath Hawaiian Skies Composer(s): Ernie Erdman; Fred Rose
Where the tropic breezes play where the palm trees bend and sway there a lonely maiden sighs
underneath Hawaiian skies Every night beneath the moon
you can hear a lonesome croon calling out across the bay, to her lover far away
Moonbeams kiss the silvry sand, where they wandered, hand in hand tears be-dim two soft brown eyes, underneath Hawaiian skies Sweet Hawaiian melodies, bring to her fond memories of a love that used to be, as she calls across the sea
Come back to the shores of Honolulu I'm so lonely here without you, underneath Hawaiian skies tell me am I waiting all in vain, dear? say you're coming back again dear, to a land that's paradise (Can't you hear me calling?) Come back where each tiny star that twinkles and each steel guitar that tinkles breathes of love that never dies sometime I just know you'll be returning to a heart that's always yearning, underneath Hawaiian skies

Underneath The Arches Composer(s): Bud Flanagan; Joseph McCarthy Performer(s): Flanagan & Allen; and various other artists
Underneath the arches We dream our dreams away Underneath the arches On cobblestones we lay
Every night you'll find us Tired out and worn Happy when the daylight comes creeping Heralding the dawn
Sleeping when it's raining And sleeping when it's fine Trains travelling By above
Pavement is our pillow No matter where we stray Underneath the arches We dream our dreams away
Spoken: Chesney Allen: Lovely melody, Bud. Do you remember when we first sang it? Bud Flanagan: Yes, Ches. We used to sit on a seat with the Thames Embankment behind us. You had a newspaper and read the headlines. Chesney: That's quite right, Bud. I've still got that paper. D'you remember the date? Nineteen hundred and twenty-six. Bud: Ches, read those headlines again. Chesney: Ah, here's one. Gertrude Edderley, eighteen-year-old American. First woman to swim The Channel. Bud: Listen to this. Cricket. Ashes for England after fourteen years. Chesney: Irish woman, Violet Gibson, shoots Mussolini in the nose. Bud: Oh! listen. Churchill's unpopular budget. Five per-cent tax on all legal bets. Chesney: Charlie Chaplin not to retire. Bud: Second time in history, Atlantic flown by three Spaniards. Chesney: Here's one. Death of Barbara La Marr, film actress with five husbands. Bud: BBC asks for nine shillings instead of seven-and-six for wireless licence. Chesney: Hopes of return to penny post. Bud: Listen to this, Ches. Bookmakers in a bad way. Chesney: Ah, that'll be the day, Bud...........Well, things are a little different now, aren't they? Bud: They certainly are and if they keep on improvin' like they're doin' now, you'll know where we'll be......back again......
Sleeping when it's raining And sleeping when it's fine Trains rattling By above
Pavement is our pillow No matter where we stray Underneath the arches We dream our dreams away

Understand Your Man Composer(s): Johnny Cash Performer(s): Johnny Cash; and various other artists
Don't call my name out your window, I'm leavin' I won't even turn my head Don't send your kinfolk to give me no talkin' I'll be gone, like I said
You just say the same old things that you been sayin' all along Lay there in your bed and keep your mouth shut till I'm gone Don't give me that old familiar cryin', cussin' moan Understand your man
Now, you can give my other suit to the Salvation Army And everything else I leave behind I ain't takin' nothin' that'll slow down my travelin' While I'm untanglin' my mind
Now, I ain't gonna repeat what I said anymore While I'm breathin' air that ain't been breathed before I'll be just as gone as the wild goose in winter Understand your man Meditate on it Understand your man I'm tired of your bad-mouthin' Understand your man
Avrei voluto parlarti Per convincerti a fare sul serio Tu che giocavi col cuore e con le parole Quanto tempo buttato per riuscire a spiegarti Che ti amavo davvero Non ci siamo inventati Non ci siamo cercati Non ci siamo mai persi, persi
Avrei voluto guardarti E intuire ogni tuo desiderio Regalarti un sospiro anche stando lontano Perché avevo paura che riuscissi a vedere Come un lampo negli occhi, un amore sincero Si accartoccia la rabbia Come frecce di carta Quando incontrano il muro
Avrei voluto io di più Ti avrei voluto anch'io
Avrei voluto legarti Per poterti ogni giorno guardare Per cambiare il cammino Strada del nostro destino E ancorarti al mio seno per non farti portare Da una vita che vola Ferma il cuore un momento A quei giorni d'inverno e si scioglierà il ghiaccio E si scioglierà il ghiaccio E si scioglierà il ghiaccio
Avrei voluto inseguirti Ma l'orgoglio non è mai veloce È soltanto un pretesto per coprire un errore Anche quando scoprivo che era il nostro domani Che voleva far pace Quella ruga sul viso che chiamavi 'espressione' Ora è il letto di un fiume Quante notti a pensare? Quante lacrime amare Han bagnato l'anima?
Avrei voluto io di più Avrei voluto io di più Avrei voluto io di più Ti avrei voluto anch'io
Undun Composer(s): Randy Bachman Performer(s): The Guess Who; Hennie Bekker; Burton Cummings; Kurt Elling; Ranee Lee; Laura Martier; Sophie Milman
She's come undun She didn't know what she was headed for And when I found what she was headed for It was too late
She's come undun She found a mountain that was far too high And when she found out she couldn't fly It was too late
It's too late She's gone too far She's lost the sun
She's come undun She wanted truth but all she got was lies Came the time to realize And it was too late
She's come undun She didn't know what she was headed for And when I found what she was headed for Mama, it was too late
It's too late She's gone too far She's lost the sun She's come undun
Too many mountains, and not enough stairs to climb Too many churches and not enough truth Too many people and not enough eyes to see Too many lives to lead and not enough time
It's too late She's gone too far She's lost the sun
She's come undun Doe-doe-doe-doe-doe doe un doe-doe-doe un doe-doe-doe Doe doe-doe-doe-doe un doe-doe-doe doe-doe-doe Doe doe-doe-doe doe doe-doe-doe doe doe

Une chanson douce Que me chantait ma maman En suçant mon pouce J'écoutais en m'endormant Cette chanson douce Je veux la chanter pour toi Car ta peau est douce Comme la mousse des bois
La petite biche est aux bois Dans le bois, se cache le loup Ouh, ouh, ouh ouh! Mais le brave chevalier passa Il prit la biche dans ses bras La, la, la, la
La petite biche Ce sera toi, si tu veux Le loup, on s'en fiche Contre lui, nous serons deux Une chanson douce Que me chantait ma maman Une chanson douce Pour tous les petits enfants
O le joli conte que voilà La biche, en femme, se changea La, la, la, la Et dans les bras du beau chevalier Belle princesse elle est restée eh, eh, eh, eh
La jolie princesse Avait tes jolis cheveux La même caresse Se lit au fond de tes yeux Cette chanson douce Je veux la chanter aussi Pour toi, ô ma douce Jusqu'à la fin de ma vie Jusqu'à la fin de ma vie

Une Chanson Signée "Je T'Aime" Composer(s): Michel Jourdan; Jean-Jacques Kravetz; Paul Kravetz Performer(s): Mireille Mathieu
Notre histoire n'est pas finie pour moi Rien ne change même si tu n'est plus là J'ai besoin oui encore un peu de m'inventer une suite à nous deux
Là où près de moi tu t'éveillais j'ai toujours laissé ton oreiller il y a même sur le piano une de tes photos...
J'ai besoin de m'inventer un rêve pour exister Moi, depuis que tu m'oublies je triche avec ma vie... Plus question que tu reviennes pourtant mon cur t'envoie quand-même une chanson... signée... "je t'aime"
Même si je dîne en solitaire il m'arrive de mettre ton couvert et ainsi, à la nuit tombée j'ai l'impression que tu vas rentrer
Vainement je guette le facteur les messages sur mon répondeur Et pourtant, depuis qu't'es plus là, c'est plus fort que moi
J'ai besoin de m'inventer un rêve pour exister Moi, depuis que tu m'oublies je triche avec ma vie... Plus question que tu reviennes pourtant mon cur t'envoie quand-même une chanson... signée... "je t'aime"
Dis-moi qu'c'est pas trop tard je t'en supplie, dis-moi qu'il reste un espoir Je m'accroche partout à ce qui fut nous Il faut dire que mon cur se déchire...
J'ai besoin de m'inventer un rêve pour exister Moi, depuis que tu m'oublies je triche avec ma vie... Plus question que tu reviennes pourtant mon cur t'envoie quand-même une chanson... signée... "je t'aime" une chanson... signée... "je t'aime"
