Cold, Haily, Windy Night (Traditional) Performer(s): Steeleye Span and various other artists
Oh me hat it is frozen to me head Me feet they are like a lump of lead Oh me shoes they are frozen to me feet With standing at your window
Let me in, the soldier cried Cold haily windy night Oh let me in, the soldier cried For I'll not go back again, no
Me father he watches down on the street Me mother the chamber keys do keep Oh, the doors and the windows they do creak I dare not let you in
Let me in, the soldier cried Cold haily windy night Oh let me in, the soldier cried For I'll not go back again, no
Oh and she's rose up and she's let him in She's kissed her true love cheek and chin And she's drawn him between her sheets again And she opened and she let him in
Then she has blessed the rainy night Cold haily windy night Oh then she has blessed the rainy night That she opened and she let him in
Soldier, soldier stay with me Soldier, soldier won't you marry me Oh no, no, no, it never can be So fare bid thee well forever
Then she has wept for the rainy night Cold haily windy night Then she has wept for the rainy night That she opened and she let him in
Oh and he's jumped up all out of the bed He's put his hat all on his head But she had lost her maidenhead Her mother she heard the din
Then she has cursed the rainy night Cold haily windy night O then she has cursed the rainy night That she opened and she let him in
Cold, Cold, Cold Composer(s): Lowell George Originally performed by: Little Feat
Cold, cold, cold Cold, cold, cold Freezing, it was freezing in that hotel I had no money, my special friend was gone The TV set was busted so she went along I called room, room service I'm down here on my knees A peach or a pear, or a coconut please But they was cold
Well it's been a month since I seen my girl Or a dime to make the call 'Cause it passed me up, or it passed me by Or I couldn't decide at all And I'm mixed up, I'm so mixed up Don't you know I'm lonely And I wish the world would get off of my case And get on one of its own
Cold, cold, cold Cold, cold, cold That woman was freezing, freezing cold Well I tried everything to warm her up Now I'm living in this cold hotel 'Cause she passed me, up or she passed me by Or I couldn't decide at all Oh I'm mixed up, yes I'm mixed up Don't you know I'm lonely Of all the things I had to do I had to fall in love You know she's cold
Turn your clock back woman when you see me comin' round My feet don't, feet don't even touch the ground don't be cold, don't be cold don't be cold, don't be cold

Cold, Cold Heart Composer(s): Hank Williams Originally performed by: Hank Williams Covered by various other artists
I tried so hard, my dear, to show That you're my every dream Yet you're afraid each thing I do Is just some evil scheme A memory from your lonesome past Keeps us so far apart Why can't I free your doubtful mind And melt your cold, cold heart
Another love before my time Made your heart sad and blue And so my heart is paying now For things I didn't do In anger unkind words are said That make the teardrops start Why can't I free your doubtful mind And melt your cold, cold heart
You'll never know how much it hurts To see you sit and cry You know you need and want my love Yet you're afraid to try Why do you run and hide from lies To try, it just ain't smart Why can't I free your doubtful mind And melt your cold, cold heart
There was a time when I believed That you belonged to me But now I know your heart Is shackled to a memory The more I learn to care for you The more we drift apart Why can't I free your doubtful mind And melt your cold, cold heart
Les oiseaux sont les mains de ces femmes sans nombre Qui sont mortes emportées par un chagrin d'amour Revenant dans l'espoir de rencontrer une ombre Sur les lieux où jadis se flétrissaient leurs jours Celui qui sur un toi légèrement se pose Brisant pour un instant son vol désespéré Et se blottit tremblant dans une triste pose Vient pleurer son amour par des cris angoissés
Je suis un oiseleur et comprends leurs alarmes Ce sont mes seuls amis, comme je suis le leur Ils se confient à moi, moi pour sécher les larmes De ces millions d'amour disparus sans bonheur Je partage mon coeur D'oiseleur
Je vis seul dans mon coin n'adressant la parole Qu'aux oiseaux qui chez moi viennent s'abriter Jadis, j'étais aimé, mais la jeunesse est folle J'ai refusé un coeur et il s'est arrêté Depuis je cherche en vain sa tendre âme fragile Parmi tous les oiseaux qui me tombent du ciel Pour consacrer ma vie à forger une idylle Que nous perpétuerons dans la vie éternelle
Je suis un oiseleur et comprends leurs alarmes Ce sont mes seuls amis, comme je suis le leur Ils se confient à moi, moi pour sécher les larmes De ces millions d'amour disparus sans bonheur Je partage mon coeur D'oiseleur
Cold Wind In August Composer(s): Van Morrison Performer(s): Van Morrison
I waited for you You waited for me That it seemed like, seemed like a mighty long time Baby I had to have you Oh, I had to have you Come rain, rain or shine
It was a cold wind in August Shivers up and down my spine I was standin' in your garden In the California pine
I was standing shivering I've got the fever in the rain But I can't come on back to see you Again and again and again
I said I, I had to have you Baby I had to have you Come rain, come rain or shine
It was a cold wind in August Shivers up and down my spine And I was standing in your garden In the California pine California pine
It was a cold wind in August Shivers up and down my spine I was standin' in your garden In the California pine In the California pine
It was a cold wind in August I was pushed on through September Oh pushin' through September In the rain Pushin' through, pushin' through September In the rain
Ooh It was a cold wind in August Shivers up and down my spine I was standin' standin' in your garden In the California pine
Sur un rayon de lune Qui traverse les rideaux Chante un oiseau Effleurant d'une plume Quelques touches de piano Chante un oiseau Qui fait comme ça Tip tip tip tip tip tip tip
Quand il voit que mon cur Est en tous petits morceaux Pleure l'oiseau En m'offrant une fleur Dérobée sur un chapeau Chante l'oiseau Qui fait comme ça Tip tip tip tip tip tip tip
Tip tip tip tip tip tip tip Puis il prend son essor Vers les arbres d'un tableau Vole l'oiseau Et moi je me rendors Entendrai-je encore binetôt Chanter l'oiseau Qui fait comme ça Tip tip tip tip tip tip tip
Cold Wind Blows Composer(s): Gary Moore Performer(s): Gary Moore
Sun don`t shine round here no more Since my baby walked on out that door She broke my heart, make no mistake All I did was give All she did was take But don`t you know, where she goes The cold wind blows
Well my baby told so many lies I couldn`t see through my blinded eyes She choked me up with her bad, bad seed Took the flowers I gave her and strangled them with weeds But don`t you know, where she goes The cold wind blows
I ain`t gonna cry no more I ain`t gonna cry no more I ain`t gonna cry no more Cry no more
Sun don`t shine round here no more Since my baby walked on out that door She broke my heart, make no mistake All I did was give All she did was take But don`t you know, where she goes The cold wind blows The cold wind blows
I ain`t gonna cry no more I ain`t gonna cry no more I ain`t gonna cry no more I ain`t gonna cry no more Cry no more Cry no more Yeah, cry no more Yeah, cry no more
Loin Devant Composer(s): Francis Cabrel Performer(s): Francis Cabrel
Loin devant L'horizon encombré Fais-moi loin devant Une maison posée J'entends Le monde chanter Sous les arbres penchés Devant
Il descend Des lumières dorées Dessine-nous dedans Dans des habits légers J'entends Les colombes jouer La paix est bien cachée Dedans
Simplement Après tant et tant de brume On aura les yeux qui s'allument vraiment... Vraiment Forcément Sous de vrais croissants de lune Les enfants pourront rêver autrement... Mautrement
Loin devant L'horizon encombré Fais-moi loin devant Un chemin, un sentier Un ruban Des tables chargées de pain blanc
Simplement Après tant et tant de brume On aura les yeux qui s'allument vraiment... Vraiment Forcément Comme on n'aura plus de larmes On verra enfin le monde autrement... Mautrement
Loin devant L'horizon encombré Fais-moi loin devant Une maison posée Je l'entends ...

Blind or crippled Sharp or dull I'm reading the Bible By a 40 watt bulb What price freedom Dirt is my rug Well I sleep like a baby With the snakes and the bugs
Well the stores are open But I ain't got no money I ain't got no money Stores are open but I Ain't got no money Ain't got no money Well I ain't
Young And Healthy Composer(s): Harry Warren - Al Dubin Performer(s): Dick Powell & Toby Wing and multiple other artists
Billy Lawlor: I know a bundle of humanity She's about so high I'm nearly driven to insanity When she passes by She's a sunny little honey But oh so hard to kiss I'll try to overcome her vanity And then I'll tell her this
I'm young and healthy And you've got charms It would really be a sin Not to have you in my arms I'm young and healthy And so are you When the moon is in the sky Tell me what am I to do?
If I could hate "yuh" I'd keep away That ain't my nature I'm full of vitamin "A," say!
Say kid! Now you go to it!
Peggy Sawyer: To what!?!
Billy Lawlor: Your first notes on Broadway!
Peggy Sawyer: I'm young and healthy And you've got charms It would really be a sin Not to have you in my arms I'm young and healthy And so are you When the moon is in the sky Tell me what am I to do?
If I could hate "yuh" I'd keep away That ain't my nature I'm full of vitamin "A," say!
I'm young and healthy So let's be bold In a year or two or three Maybe we will be Too old

A Woman's Intuition Composer(s): Ned Washington - Victor Young Performer(s): Lee Wiley and multiple other artists
You go along in your quiet way Act more strange every day In this position A woman's intuition Will tell her all there is to know!
It's very clear that there's someone new Hurting me, charming you! That great magician A woman's intuition Told me all these things are so!
You haven't held me in your arms lately You haven't kissed me in the tender way you should It's rather obvious you've changed greatly But I wouldn't say the change is for the good!
To give you up, what a fool I'd be! Not a chance, no sirree! On no condition For my woman's intuition Says you're the only one for me!

Loin De Toi Composer(s): Friedrich Hollaender - Robert Gilbert - Jean Boyer Performer(s): Lilian Harvey and multiple other artists
Je vivais de pauvre jours Sans amours Ma vie était insipide Je n'avais aucun bonheur Dans le coeur Les heures me semblaient vides Mais j'ai croisé par hasard Ton regard Et j'ai senti naître en moi Mille émois C'est pourquoi dépuis ce jour béni Souvent je te dis
Jamais je ne pourrai vivre Loin de toi Aucun baiser ne m'enivre Loin de toi Dès que je te vois paraître Je sens ma gaieté renaître Et tout frissonne en mon être Pourquoi?
Parce que je me sens triste Loin de toi Parce que plus rien n'existe Loin de toi Ce qu'est le soleil au monde Toi tu l'es pour moi C'est l'obscurité profonde Loin de toi
Ah! que ne puis-je effacer Mon passé! Pour que ma vie ne commence Que dès cet instant divin Où tu vins M'apporter ma part de chance Tout ce qui se passe avant Que le vent L'emporte et n'en parlons plus Je l'exclus Mon destin ne date que du jour Où j'eus ton amour
Jamais je ne pourrai vivre Loin de toi Aucun baiser ne m'enivre Loin de toi Dès que je te vois paraître Je sens ma gaieté renaître Et tout frissonne en mon être Pourquoi?
