Si Seulement ((Adapted from: Dirty, Dirty Feeling (Elvis Presley) - 1960)) Composer(s): Jerry Leiber - Mike Stoller - Eddy Mitchell - Georges Vesta Performer(s): Les Chaussettes Noires - 1961
Si seulement tu voyais ma peine Tu reviendrais entre mes bras Au fond, je sais bien que tu m'aimes Et que tu n'aimeras que moi Nous sommes deux gosses, oui, mais quand même Rappelle-toi depuis toujours Tu m'as dit et redit «Je t'aime» Dans notre square du vieux faubourg Si seulement tu voulais comprendre Que mon amour n'a pas changé On s'était promis de s'attendre Dis-moi ce qui peut te troubler
Nous sommes deux gosses, c'est le problème Comprends enfin que le bonheur N'est pas là-bas où l'on t'entraîne Il te faut écouter ton cur Quand, demain, tu verras ma peine Tu reviendras entre mes bras Au fond, tu sais bien que tu m'aimes Et que tu n'aimeras que moi
Circus Composer(s): Rod Argent Performer(s): Rod Argent
In the circus, each must play a part The clown the jester, mirror the meaning of their art In the circus you can be fool or may be king The sound of laughter is in the wedding of the ring
But all are found Seeking the love of the crowd And all are reaching out In the circus, in the circus, in the circus
Buenas noches ladies and gentlemen bon soir sean bienvenidos a la primera función del Circo Beat el circo mas sexy mas alto mas tonto del mundo desde ahora y para siempre cualquier semejanza con hechos reales correrán por vuestra propia imaginación arrivederci é buona fortuna queste sono le ultime parole d'il terzo angelo di Cristo dopo parlare in l'strada con il uomo che non sapeva piú di niente!!!
Psicodélica star de la mística de los pobres de misterio, de amor, de dinero y soledad... yo no vine hasta acá a ayudarte buscando cobre mi pasado es real y el futuro es libertad
Circo beat, circo beat todo el mundo juega aquí en el circo beat circo beat, circo beat rayos y culebras en al circo beat
Casi todos tendrán un instante su touch de gloria llegaremos en jeep, llegaremos a la ciudad... no me gusta cantar yo me muero con Gena Rowlands y los monos están devastando este lugar
Un circo vi, un circo vi cuando yo era pibe algún circo vi un circo vi, un circo vi no pasaba nada pero un circo vi circo beat
Remove This Doubt Composer(s): Brian Holland; Lamont Dozier; Edward Holland, Jr. Performer(s): The Supremes; Elvis Costello
It's hurting me, it's hurting me This doubt is hurting me
So remove this doubt From my heart, little boy And let me live my life Knowing you care
Remove this doubt From my mind, little boy And let me breathe again Feeling my love you share
Each time we meet You make me feel so incomplete There's no joy in the air I just don't think you care
Close the door of doubt forever more And may it never more make me unsure Turn the key and lock away this doubt in me Keep it in the dark, not in my heart Be more tender Completely surrender your love to me Be sweet and not discreet
Remove this doubt From my mind, little boy And let me breathe again Feeling my love you share
Each time we meet You make me feel so incomplete There's no joy in the air I just don't think you care
Remove this doubt in our hearts Remove this doubt from my heart
Circles
Composer(s): Harry Chapin
First release by: The New Seekers - 1972
Covered by multiple other artists
All my life's a circle
Sunrise and sundown
The moon rose through the nighttime
Till the day break comes around
All my life's a circle
But I can't tell you why
The seasons spinning round again
The years keep rolling by
It seems like I've been here before
I can't remember when
But I've got this funny feeling
That I'll be back once again
There's no straight lines make up my life
And all my roads have bends
There's no clear-cut beginnings
And so far no dead-ends
All my life's a circle
Sunrise and sundown
The moon rose through the nighttime
Till the day break comes around
All my life's a circle
But I can't tell you why
The seasons spinning round again
The years keep rolling by
I've found you a thousand times
I guess you've done the same
But then we lose each other
It's just like a children's game
And as I see you here again
The thought runs through my mind
Our love is like a circle
Let's go round one more time
All my life's a circle
Sunrise and sundown
The moon rose through the nighttime
Till the day break comes around
All my life's a circle
And I can't tell you why
The seasons spinning round again
The years keep rolling by
All my life's a circle
Sunrise and sundown
The moon rose through the nighttime
Till the day break comes around
All my life's a circle
But I can't tell you why
The seasons spinning round again
The years keep rolling by
All my life's a circle
Sunrise and sundown
The moon rose through the nighttime
Till the day break comes around
All my life's a circle
But I can't tell you why
The seasons spinning round again
The years keep rolling by
All my life's a circle
Sunrise and sundown
The moon rose through the nighttime
Till the day break comes around
All my life's a circle
But I can't tell you why
The seasons spinning round again
The years keep rolling by
The Prisoner Composer(s): Sayer Courtney - Roger Daltrey - Todd Performer(s): Roger Daltrey
Days go - so slow Life just slipping away Day after day The wall's too close to me now Oh I can't take too much more All the lying Is it just an illusion I've been feeling the strain And it's more than just pain I can't help myself 'Cause I've lost myself
If I could see you through the wire And just forget about tomorrow No one listens to what I am saying I'm just a sad man another sad man They say I'm no bad man But I'm no bad man
Wasted - wasted All my life's been wasted Sitting here in this room I can get no release It's all war and no peace
If I could see you through the wire And just forget about tomorrow Someone listen to what I am saying I'm just a sad man another sad man
If I could see you through the wire And just forget about tomorrow Someone listen to what I am saying I'm just a sad man another sad man Don't say I'm a bad man 'Cause I'm no bad man
They say it's wrong to set me free I'll do no harm 'Cause I'm no bad man
Circles Composer(s): Toni Tennille Performer(s): Captain & Tennille
He drew a circle that shut me out he was afraid of what life was all about Whenever I saw him he'd be there inside him locking his heart in a place to hide it But oh love and I knew just where to begin Yes love and I started a circle within oh love and I We drew a circle, a beautiful circle a wonderful circle that took him in He was a quiet and lonely one he didn't know that his life had just begun I knew that I'd be the one to unwind him get him to put all his fears behind him And oh love and I, knew just where to begin Yes, love and I started a circle within oh love and I We drew a circle, a beautiful circle a wonderful circle that took him in lost in a circle, a beautiful circle, a wonderful circle of love la la la la lost in a circle, a beautiful circle, a wonderful circle of love Oh love and I, knew just where to begin yes love and I, started a circle within oh love and I We drew a circle, a beautiful circle a wonderful circle that took him in
Remise De Peine Composer(s): E. Miossec; David Hallyday Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday
Ils m'ont laissé sortir hier soir Tu sais j'avais hâte de te revoir Qu'est-ce que t'es belle T'es toujours la même
Tu sais jamais je n'aurais Pur croire Qu'au monde quelqu'un Garde l'espoir Qu'est-ce que t'es belle Une étoile dans le ciel
J'ai purgé ma peine A en trancher mes veines J'veux plus que tu me craignes J'te ferai plus de peine
Qu'est-ce que t'es belle Qu'est-ce que je t'aime Qu'est-ce que t'es belle A en crever le ciel
J'aimerais tant ne plus Te décevoir Faire comme les autres quand Tombe le soir Qu'est-ce que t'es belle A en crever le ciel
J'vivrai plus sur le fil du rasoir J'essaierai de changer de trottoir Qu'est-ce que t'es belle Mon dieu comme je t'aime
Ce ne sera plus pareil Fini la dévaine Les nuits sans sommeil Je n'veux plus que tu saignes
Qu'est-ce que t'es belle Qu'est-ce que je t'aime Qu'est-ce que t'es belle Mon étoile dans le ciel
J'aimrerais tant Que tu puisses me croire Tu sais j'ai de nouveau l'espoir Qu'est-ce que t'es belle T'es toujours la même
J'ai purgé ma peine A en trancher mes veines J'veux que tu me reprennes Je te ferai plus de peine Ce ne sera plus pareil Fini la déveine Les nuits sans sommeil Je n'veux plus que tu saignes
Qu'est-ce que t'es belle Qu'est-ce que je t'aime Qu'est-ce que t'es belle A en crever le ciel
Reminiscing Composer(s): Graham Goble Performer(s): Little River Band
Friday night it was late I was walking you home We got down to the gate And I was dreaming of the night Would it turn out right?
How to tell you boy, I want to build my world around you Wanna tell you that it's true I wanna to make you understand I'm talking about a lifetime plan
That's the way it began We were hand in hand Glenn Miller's Band was better than before We yelled and screamed for more And the chorus tune Made us dance across the room It ended all too soon And on the way back home I promised you'd never be alone
Hurry, don't be late I can hardly wait I said to myself when we're old We'll go dancing in the dark We'll go walking through the park And reminiscing
Friday night it was late I was walking you home We got down to the gate And I was dreaming of the night (Dreaming of the night) Would it turn out right? Now as the years roll on Each time we hear our favourite song The memories come along
Older times we're missing Spending the hours reminiscing
Hurry, don't be late I can hardly wait I said to myself when we're old We'll go dancing in the dark We'll go walking through the park And reminiscing
Hurry, don't be late I can hardly wait I said to myself when we're old We'll go dancing in the dark We'll go walking through the park And reminiscing
We'll go dancing in the dark We'll go walking through the park And reminiscing

Circle Of Hands
Composer(s): Ken Hensley
Performer(s): Uriah Heep; The Easy Livin'
Circle of hands Cold spirits plan Searching my land For an enemy Came across Love's sweet cost And in the face of beauty Evil was lost
Sky full of eyes Minds full of lies Black from their cold hearts Down to their graves Murdered the dawn Spreading their scorn Cursing the sun Of which love was born
We must keep them away Or pretty soon we'll pay And count the cost in sorrow Sacrifice - the future has it's price And today is only Yesterday's tomorrow
Reminiscing Composer(s): King Curtis Performer(s): Buddy Holly; and various other artists

The Circle Game
((Dutch Version: De Cirkel (Miek en Roel) - 1970))
Composer(s): Joni Mitchell
First release by: Ian & Sylvia - 1967
Covered by multiple other artists
Yesterday a child came out to wonder Caught a dragonfly inside a jar Fearful when the sky was full of thunder And tearful at the falling of a star Then the child moved ten times round the seasons Skated over ten clear frozen streams Words like, when you're older, must appease him And promises of someday make his dreams And the seasons they go round and round And the painted ponies go up and down We're captive on the carousel of time We can't return we can only look behind From where we came And go round and round and round In the circle game
Sixteen springs and sixteen summers gone now Cartwheels turn to car wheels thru the town And they tell him, Take your time, it won't be long now Till you drag your feet to slow the circles down And the seasons they go round and round And the painted ponies go up and down We're captive on the carousel of time We can't return we can only look behind From where we came And go round and round and round In the circle game
So the years spin by and now the boy is twenty Though his dreams have lost some grandeur Coming true There'll be new dreams, maybe better dreams and plenty Before the last revolving year is through And the seasons they go round and round And the painted ponies go up and down We're captive on the carousel of time We can't return, we can only look behind From where we came And go round and round and round In the circle game
Remind Me Composer(s): Dorothy Fields; Jerome Kern Performer(s): Doris Day & André Previn;
and various other artists
Remind me not to find you so attractive Remind me that the world is full of men When I start to miss you, to touch your hand, to kiss you Remind me to count to ten
I had a feeling when I met you Youd drive me crazy if I let you But all my efforts to forget you Remind me Im in love again
Not to mention that I love you
To be sorry that we met Although I adore you, remind me to ignore you Youre one thing I will regret So when your charm begins to blind me Ill simply tie my hands behind me Dont let me kiss you, please remind me Unless, my darling, you forget
The Price Of Love ((French Version: Le Prix Daimer (Frank Alamo) - 1965)) Composer(s): Don Everly - Phil Everly First release by: The Everly Brothers - 1965 Covered by multiple other artists
Wine is sweet & gin is bitter Drink all you can, but you won't forget her You talk too much, you laugh too loud You see her face in every crowd
That's the price of love, the price of love The debt you pay with tears & pain The price of love, the price of love Can cost you more & you're to blame
Kiss one girl, kiss another Kiss 'em all, but you won't recover You're dancin' slow, you're dancin' fast You're happy now, but that won't last
That's the price of love, the price of love The debt you pay with tears & pain The price of love, the price of love Can cost you more & you're to blame
