This Time It's Real
Composer(s): Buddy Bernier - Bob Emmerich
Performer(s): Ella Fitzgerald
Covered by multiple other artists



I know it, I know it, this time it’s real
It’s thrilling, so thrilling, the way I feel
Love before was different, I just played a part
But this time it comes right from the heart

Pretending is ending, this time it’s real
Forever and ever, time will reveal
We were lucky darling, when fate turned the wheel
I know it, I feel it, this time it’s real

Pretending is ending, this time it’s real
Forever and ever, time will reveal
Oh We were lucky darling, when fate turned the wheel
I know it, I feel it, this time it’s really real
This time it’s real

Crooning
Composer(s): William F. Caesar - Al Dubin - Herbert Weise
Performer(s): The Benson Orch. of Chicago



Every night beneath the love moon 
Sweet heart, when we steal away 
All we do is croon a love tune 
When you're in love there's never much to say

While our hearts are sweetly blending in such perfect harmony 
let there never be an ending to love's own little dreamy melody

We're crooning, just crooning, the night time away 
Planning and dreaming, day after day
Just hoping that sometime we'll both harmonize 
In our own little love nest, crooning lullabies

J'Attends Le Soleil
Composer(s): Pierre Rapsat
Performer(s): Pierre Rapsat



Là du haut de cette tour
Je regarde la ville attends le jour
En bas des serpents de lumière
Inlassablement sillonnent les artères
Ils rampent, glissent parmi les ombres
J'attends le soleil

Qu'il se lève lentement
Majestueux, fascinant
Sur le fleuve les premiers rayons
Echappés de l'horizon
Rampent, recouvrent l'eau d'or et d'ombres
J'attends le soleil
Le lever du soleil

Comme Pharaon-Pharaon, je prie Amon
Que la nuit se sauve
Je l'appelle, appelle au secours
Pour qu' à l'horizon arrive Amon
Que le ciel devienne fauve
Je l'appelle, j'attends son retour
Que la ville enfin voie le jour

Et qu'il inonde nos rues
Nos maisons, chasse le noir
Qu'il nous réchauffe tant et plus
Que ceux qui dorment sur le trottoir
Se lèvent sortent enfin de l'ombre
J'attends le soleil

Que les femmes deviennent belles
Que les sourires apparaissent
Qu'il monte haut dans le ciel
Qu'il efface toutes nos détresses
Je suis une ombre parmi les ombres
Mais j'attends le soleil
Le lever du jour

Comme Pharaon-Pharaon, je prie Amon
Que la nuit se sauve
Je l'appelle, appelle au secours
Pour qu'à l'horizon, à l'horizon arrive Amon
Que le ciel devienne fauve
Je l'appelle, j'attends son retour
Que la ville enfin voie le jour

Je ne suis qu'une ombre
Parmi les ombres
Mais j'attends
J'attends le soleil

This Time
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
Performer(s): Robert Shanley



'Twas not so long ago
We sailed to meet the foe
And thought our fighting days were done
We thought 'twas over then
But now we're in again
To win the war that wasn't won

This time
We will all make certain
That this time is the last time

This time
We will not say "Curtain"
Till we ring it down
In their own home town

For this time
We are out to finish the job we started then
Clean it up for all time this time
So we won't have to do it again

Dressed up to win
We're dressed up to win
Dressed up for victory
We are just beginning
And we won't stop winning
Till the world is free

We'll fight to the finish this time
And we'll never have to do it again

Crooked Little House
(aka Crooked Little Man)
Composer(s): Ersel Hickey - Ed E. Miller
First release by: Jimmie Rodgers - 1960



Uh-huh, oh no, don't let the rain come down
Uh-huh, oh no, don't let the rain come down
Uh-huh, oh no, don't let the rain come down
My roof's got a hole in it and I might drown
Oh yes, my roof's got a hole in it and I might drown

There was a crooked man and he had a crooked smile
Had a crooked sixpence and he walked a crooked mile
Had a crooked cat and he had a crooked mouse
They all lived together in a crooked little house

Uh-huh, oh no, don't let the rain come down
Uh-huh, oh no, don't let the rain come down
Uh-huh, oh no, don't let the rain come down
My roof's got a hole in it and I might drown
Oh yes, my roof's got a hole in it and I might drown

Well, this crooked little man and his crooked little smile
Took a crooked sixpence and he walked a crooked mile
Bought some crooked nails and a crooked little bat
Tried to fix his roof with a rat-a-tat-tat

Uh-huh, oh no, don't let the rain come down
Uh-huh, oh no, don't let the rain come down
Uh-huh, oh no, don't let the rain come down
My roof's got a hole in it and I might drown
Oh yes, my roof's got a hole in it and I might drown

Now this crooked little man and his crooked cat and mouse
They all lived together in a crooked little house
Has a crooked door with a crooked little latch
That's a crooked group with the crooked little patch

Uh-huh oh no, don't let the rain come down
Uh-huh oh no, don't let the rain come down
Uh-huh,no no, don't let the rain come down
My roof's got a hole in it and I might drown
Oh yes, my roof's got a hole in it and I might drown!

J'Attends

J'attends les grands sommets de la plus haute étoile
Où déposer ton cœur pour le garder vivant
J'attends de traverser la vie de salle en salle
De couloirs en entrées, de fauteuils en divans
J'attends de reposer sans peine et angoisse
Auprès de ton amour qui traverse les ans
J'attends de rassembler les morceaux de l'espace
Où nous vivrons tous deux jusqu'à la fin des temps

J'attends que l'univers se réduise à nos cœurs
Afin d'être à l'abri des méchants et des fous
J'attends que nos instants s'éternisent en des heures
Et que le fil du temps s'enroule autour de nous
J'attends que le printemps fleurisse la chaumière
Où je t'emmènerai passer l'éternité
J'attends que le soleil soit fait de la lumière
Et qu'une nuit l'hiver se transforme en été

J'attends que tous les bruits ne soient plus que musique
Et le fond de la Terre une source de miel
Et j'attends que jaillisse un geyser fantastique
Entraînant nos élans jusqu'au plus haut du ciel
C'est à toi que le Monde alors ressemblera
Et je t'épouserai pour la seconde fois

Dragonfly
Composer(s): John Bidwell
Performer(s): Bert Jansch



Dragonfly, shines with the colours of the river
Where shadows lie among the swaying leaves
With the fruits of summer passing
My lover, as she went

Still she smiles with all the beauty of the river
Still she sighs among the swaying leaves
Ah, she loves the earth so dearly
Kinda mother of all

They cannot see, then they should look into her dark eyes
They're open wide, they cannot tell a lie
They should listen to her singing
Sweet songs from all sides

Crois-Moi Mon Coeur
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour; Eddy Mitchell



Crois-moi, mon cœur, on a bien le droit quand on aime
De s'enlacer la nuit venue
Sans que cela cause un problème
Se rencontrer, pour s'embrasser dans la rue

Crois-moi, mon cœur, on peut sous un portail complice
Echanger nos mots d'amour
Et nous y blottir sans malice
Te caresser, tout oublier jusqu'au jour

Tant pis, tant pis pour tous ceux qui ne voient pas
Le bonheur de la vie comme je le vois
Et tant pis, tant pis pour ceux qui ne comprennent pas
Que l'on a besoin de ça

Crois-moi, mon cœur, quand le bonheur frappe à la porte
Faut le prendre avec furie
Avant qu'le temps n' le dévore
Et l'inviter pour réchauffer notre vie

Et tant pis, tant pis pour tous ceux qui ne voient pas
Le bonheur de la vie comme je le vois
Et tant pis, tant pis pour ceux qui ne comprennent pas
Que l'on a besoin de ça

Crois-moi, mon cœur, s'il y en a qui s'en formalisent
N'pensons pas, serrons-nous fort
Et si cela les scandalise
Ignorons les, tous deux serrés corps à corps
Ignorons les, tous deux serrés corps à corps
Crois-moi, mon cœur

J'attendrai
Le jour et la nuit
J'attendrai toujours
Ton retour

J'attendrai
Car l'oiseau qui s'enfuit
Vient chercher l'oubli
Dans son nid

Le temps passe et court
En battant tristement
Dans mon coeur si lourd
Et pourtant j'attendrai
Ton retour

J'attendrai
Le jour et la nuit
J'attendrai toujours
Ton retour

J'attendrai
Car l'oiseau qui s'enfuit
Vient chercher l'oubli
Dans son nid

Le temps passe et court
En battant tristement
Dans mon coeur si lourd
Et pourtant j'attendrai
Ton retour

Le vent m'apporte
Des bruits lointains
Guettant ma porte
J'écoute en vain
Hélas, plus rien
Plus rien ne vient

J'attendrai
Le jour et la nuit
J'attendrai toujours
Ton retour

J'attendrai
Car l'oiseau qui s'enfuit
Vient chercher l'oubli
Dans son nid

Le temps passe et court
En battant tristement
Dans mon coeur si lourd
Et pourtant j'attendrai
Ton retour
Et pourtant j'attendrai
Ton retour

Le temps passe et court
En battant tristement
Dans mon coeur si lourd
Et pourtant j'attendrai
Ton retour

Why do the days 
Go by so fast 
If only time 
Was built to last 

If it could learn 
To take it slow 
Then maybe time 
At last would know 

That if Monday, Tuesday 
Should go away 
It'll be Wednesday, Thursday 
Then Saturday 
And when Sunday comes 
It's just too late 
It's gotta be this time 

How come the days 
Do what they do 
Maybe if time 
Time only knew 

Could be that time 
Don't really know 
That it should try 
To take it slow 

Then maybe Monday, Tuesday 
Won't go away 
Then maybe Thursday, Friday 
Could be like Saturday 
And when Sunday comes 
It's never too late 
It'll be this time 
It's gotta be this time 

How come the days 
Do what they do 
Maybe if time 
Time only knew 

That if Monday, Tuesday 
Should go away 
It'll be Wednesday, Thursday 
Then Saturday 
And when Sunday comes 
It's just too late 
It's gotta be this time 
It's gotta be this time 
It's never too late 
It'll be this time

Mais si un jour tu te retrouve toute seule
Que tu t'imagines que les gens t'en veulent
Que le bonheur soudain t'abandonne
Que pour te consoler tu ne trouves personne
Viens vite, viens vite, je t'attendrai, viens vite, je t'attendrai

J'attendrai que tu me reviennes à nouveau
J'attendrai, j'attendrai longtemps s'il le faut

Oui et si un jour tout n'est que confusion
Que ce nouvel amour n'était qu'illusion
Qu'à la dérive tu te laisse aller
Que tu cherches une main pour te rattraper
Viens vite, viens vite, je t'attendrai, viens vite, je t'attendrai

J'attendrai que tu me reviennes à nouveau
J'attendrai, j'attendrais longtemps s'il le faut
J'attendrai que tu me reviennes à nouveau
J'attendrai, j'attendrais longtemps s'il le faut

Oui car si ce jour devait arriver
N'aie pas peur, j'oublierais le passé
Ce jour-là surtout rappelle-toi
Que tu peux toujours compter sur moi
Viens vite, viens vite, je t'attendrai, viens vite, je t'attendrai

J'attendrai que tu me reviennes à nouveau
J'attendrai, j'attendrais longtemps s'il le faut
J'attendrai avec tout l'amour qu'il te faut
J'attendrai, tu peux toujours compter sur moi...

This time
Is the last time
That I'll ever call her name
This time
Is the last time
That I'll ever play her game
And this time
Is the last time
That I'll endure this pain
'Cause this time
Is the last time
She'll ever hurt me again

I tell myself each morning
That we're through
But every night I see
That it's not true
I run out
And track her down
Just so I can hang around
And cry

This time
Is the last time
That I'll ever call her name
This time
Is the last time
That I'll ever play her game
And this time
Is the last time
That I'll endure this pain
'Cause this time
Is the last time
She'll ever hurt me again

Come on heart let's make believe we're fine
We'll both agree the pain's just in our mind
I'll close my eyes and try not to hear
The things I'll say when she appears
To haunt me

This time
Is the last time
That I'll ever call her name
This time
Is the last time
That I'll ever play her game
And this time
Is the last time
That I'll endure this pain
'Cause this time
Is the last time
She'll ever hurt me again

Crocus & Hyacinth
Performer(s): Paula Foley



The leaves are falling to the ground 
The grass in the field is a thousand shades of brown 
My heart has befriended this semi-dormant place 

Hardly living ... Barely breathing ... Scarcely feeling ... but 

Crocus and Hyacinth 
Wait in the frozen earth 
Expectantly 
For the first caress of spring 
I am waiting too! 
Warm sun -Caress my brokeness 

The geese are taking flight now
Instinct leads them to a soft more gentle air 
Instinct leads me blindly through this winter of my heart 

Mostly numb ... Mostly ache ... Mostly lost ... but

Jason

This ain't for the quarterback  
Who lives upstairs in our house 
An' this ain't for the princess  
Who's sleepin' down the hall! 
  
This ain't for the other one  
Who looks just like her mamma  
An' this ain't for the baby  
Who's the cutest one of all! 
  
Jason, this is my love for you 
Written down a thousand times 
Jason, like the teacher makes you do  
When you're bad and outta line 
  
I'm so glad you're mine! 
  
It hurts me when they tease you  
'Cause your mind's a little slower 
I'd like to take the sadness  
An' turn em into joy! 
  
I watch you so hard to do  
What usually comes easy  
After all, to me  
You're such a special little boy! 
  
Jason, this is my love for you 
Written, written down a thousand times 
Jason, like the teacher makes you do  
When you're bad and outta line 
  
I'm so glad you're mine! 
  
Jason ... Jason!

Draggin' Shackles
Composer(s): Gary Stewart - Nat Stuckey
Performer(s): Gary Stewart; Johnny Russell



Draggin' shackles down in Georgia
The mem'ry of her's burnin' up my brain
Draggin' shackles down in Georgia
That woman's every link in these old chains

James' House of Jewellery
Had the ring she liked the most
Just the thing I needed to win her hand
Now, James' House of Jewellery
Is a-missing one fine ring
And James says he isn't sure I bought the ring

I'm draggin' shackles down in Georgia
The mem'ry of her's burnin' up my brain
Draggin' shackles down in Georgia
That woman's every link in these old chains

I get up ev'ry mornin'
Before the birds begin to sing
The only place I see you's in a dream
And the ??? of a captive heart
Makes me wish I were dead
Huntin' down the road with you in my arms, Lord I can't

Instead, I'm draggin' shackles down in Georgia
The mem'ry of her's burnin' up my brain
Draggin' shackles down in Georgia
That woman's every link in these old chains

Draggin' shackles down in Georgia
The mem'ry of her's burnin' up my brain
Draggin' shackles down in Georgia
That woman's every link in these old chains

Crocodiles
Composer(s): Ian McCulloch - Pete De Freitas - Les Pattinson - Will Sergeant
First release by: Echo & The Bunnymen - 1980



I read it in a magazine
I don't wanna see it again
I threw away the magazine
And looked for someone to explain
I don't wanna look back
I can't look around
I don't wanna see it coming round

Listen to the ups and downs
Listen to the sound they make
Don't be scared when it gets loud
When you're skin begins to shake
'Cause you don't wanna look back
You gotta look tall
You gotta see those creeps crawl

I know you know
I know you know

I can see you've got the blues
In your alligator shoes
Me, I'm all smiles
I got my crocodiles
I don't wanna look back
I can't turn around
I don't want to see it coming down

Met someone just the other day
Said wait until tomorrow
I said, hey what you doing today
He said, I'm going to do it tomorrow
Met someone just the other day
Said wait until tomorrow
I said, hey, what you doing today
I'm going to do it tomorrow

To give to someone
Jasmine flower, oh jasmine flower

You've got this strange effect on me
And I like it

You've got this strange effect on me
And I like it

You make my world in white
You make my darkness bright, oh yes
You've got this strange effect on me
And I like it, and I like it

And I like the way you kiss me
Don't know if I should
But this feeling it's love and I know it
That's why I feel good

You've got this strange effect on me
And I like it

You've got this strange effect on me
And I like it

You make my world in white
You make my darkness bright, oh yes
You've got this strange effect on me
And I like it, and I like it

Crocodile Rock
Composer(s): Elton John - Bernie Taupin
First release by: Elton John - 1973
Covered by multiple other artists



I remember when rock was young 
Me and Suzie had so much fun 
holding hands and skimming stones 
Had an old gold Chevy and a place of my own 
But the biggest kick I ever got 
was doing a thing called the Crocodile Rock 
While the other kids were rocking round the clock 
we were hopping and bopping to the crocodile rock 

Well crocodile rocking is something shocking 
when your feet just can't keep still 
I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will 
Oh lawdy mama those Friday nights 
when Suzie wore her dresses tight 
and the crocodile rocking was out of sight

But the years went by and the rock just died 
Suzie went and left us for some foreign guy 
Long nights crying by the record machine 
dreaming of my Chevy and my old blue jeans 
But they'll never kill the thrills we've got 
burning up to the crocodile rock 
Learning fast as the weeks went past 
we really thought the crocodile rock would last
