I Believe In A Hill Called Mount Calvary Composer(s): William Gaither; Gloria Gaither; Dale Oldham Performer(s): Gaither Vocal Band and multiple other artists
I believe in a hill called mount calvary I believe whatever the cost And when time has surrendered And earth is no more I'll still cling to the old rugged cross
I believe that this life with its great mysteries Surely someday will come to an end But faith will conquer the darkness and death And will lead at last to my friend
I believe that the Christ Who was slain on the cross Has the power to change lives today For He changed me completely A new life is mine And that is why by the cross I will stay
I believe in a hill called mount calvary I believe whatever the cost And when time has surrendered And earth is no more I'll still cling to the old rugged cross
Time Has Come Today Composer(s): Willie M. Chambers - Joseph L. Chambers First release by: The Chambers Brothers - 1967 Covered by multiple other artists
Young hearts can go that way Can't put it off another day I don't care what others say They say we don't listen anyway Time has come today The rules have changed today I have no place to stay Thinking about the subway The love has flown away My tears have come and gone Oh my lord I have to roam I have no home I have no home
Now the time has come No place to run I might get burned up by the sun but I had my fun
I've been loved and put aside I've been crushed by tumbling tide and my soul has been psychedelicized
Now the time has come There are things to realize Time has come today Time has come today Time
I Believe Composer(s): Ervin Drake; Irvin Graham; Jimmy Shirl; Al Stillman First recording/First release by: Frankie Laine - 1953 Covered by multiple other artists
I believe for every drop of rain that falls a flower grows I believe that somewhere in the darkest night a candle glows I believe for everyone who goes astray someone will come to show the way I believe, I believe
I believe above the storm the smallest prayer will still be heard I believe that someone in the great somewhere hears every word Every time I hear a newborn baby cry or touch a leaf or see the sky Then I know why I believe
Every time I hear a newborn baby cry or touch a leaf or see the sky Then I know why I believe (why I believe)
Je Serai Là English Title: I Will Be There Composer(s): Johnnie Christo; Johnny Hallyday; Étienne Roda-Gil; Trevor Steel; Milan Zekavica Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday
Sur tous les chemins de ta vie Dans le désert ou sous la pluie Quand tu voudras je serai là
Que tu viennes d'un château De nulle part ou d'un ruisseau Quand tu voudras je serai là
Je serai là si tu veux Comme ces rêves qui rendent heureux Pour faire d'un jour le plus beau jour de ta vie Je serai là si tu veux Comme la vie qu'on vit à deux Si tu es là je serai là
Dans le souffle d'un vent géant Dans le sourire du printemps Quand tu voudras je serai là
Dans tes moments de solitude Dans le confort ou la vie trop dure Je serai là
Je serai là si tu veux Comme ces rêves qui rendent heureux Pour faire d'un jour le plus beau jour de ta vie Je serai là si tu veux Comme la vie qu'on vit à deux Si tu es là je serai là
Dans tes yeux ou dans ton sommeil Quand tu dors, quand tu te réveilles Quand tu voudras je serai là
Je serai là si tu veux Comme ces rêves qui rendent heureux Pour faire d'un jour le plus beau jour de ta vie Je serai là si tu veux Comme la vie qu'on vit à deux Si tu es là je serai là
Rien que pour toi je serai là Si tu es là je serai là
Time For Livin' Composer(s): Don Addrisi - Dick Addrisi Performer(s): The Association
I kicked off my shoes and felt the good earth under my feet I loosened my tie and saw what it feels like to breathe I found the secret to life I took some time for livin'
I took off my watch and found I had all the time in the world I opened my arms so I could hold life like a beautiful girl I laid down all of my hangups forever Hey look, I've changed My attitude's been rearranged From now on I'm taking some
Time for livin', groovin' on everything Life is givin', from now on I'm taking Time... For life
Too busy to stop and notice the things that are real Embarassed to talk about all the things that I feel It's so strange never noticed the world all around me Hey look, I've changed My attitude's been rearranged From now on I'm taking some
Time for livin', groovin' on everything Life is givin', from now on I'm taking Time... For life

I don't want my heart to be broken
'Cause it's the only one I've got
So darling please be careful
You know I care a lot
Darling please don't break my heart

I don't want no tears a-falling
You know I hate to cry
But that's what's bound to happen
I you only say goodbye
Darling please don't say goodbye
I beg of you
Hold my hand and promise
That you'll always love me true
Make me know you'll love me
The same way I love you little girl
You got me at your mercy
Now that I'm in love with you
So please don't take advantage
'Cause you know my love is true
Darling please please love me too

Hold my hand and promise
That you'll always love me true

Je saurai être ton amie Si tu veux me parler au milieu de la nuit Si tu veux raconter si tu as des ennuis Me parler de ta vie
Tu sais je sais être une amie Et je les reconnais tous ceux qui m'ont trahie Quand plus rien n'était simple au détour de ma vie En plein cur de la nuit
Tu sais le moment vient où il faut être là On a vraiment besoin De quelqu'un près de soi Et si tu veux de moi
Je saurai être ton amie Et je saurai comprendre tes silences à demi Si tu sais m'accepter et si tu te confies Je saurai t'écouter, tu sauras que je suis ton amie
Je saurai être ton amie Et t'écouter cent fois recommencer ta vie Te redonner encore et encore mon avis Que tu n'écouteras pas et de faire des paris Que je saurai perdus
Time, don't run out on me Gotta make you love me the way you used to do Gotta get back the feeling and put wind in my sails And chart a course that gets me back to you, back to you
Oh, the lonely days, the lonely nights lookin' back in time Time, don't run out on me I've gotta get back to where we used to be (where we used to be) Time, don't run out on me, don't run out on me
There's one more thing I gotta do before I pack it in Gotta make the right moves, say the right thing to change your mind And find a way to get you back again, back again
All the wasted time, the lonely nights lookin' back in time Time, don't run out on me I've gotta get back to where we used to be (where we used to be) Time, don't run out on me
Once I could catch your eye across the room And know just what you were thinkin' And when I held you in my arms, we'd dream as one But those days are gone, somethin' went wrong And when I wake up to the mornin' sun I find myself sayin'
Time, don't run out on me, don't run out on me, don't run out on me Time, don't run out on me Time, don't run out on me I've gotta get back to where we used to be (where we used to be) Time, don't run out on me (time don't run out on me) (Time, don't run out on me) (Time, don't run out on me) (Time, don't run out on me)...

Slow down, honey Be cool It looks like youll never learn how to bop Youre nothing but a square! All you do is beep-beep-beep Youre a bring-down and Im cutting out Goodbye!
There she goes!
My life was all sunshine and roses
With the gal, I was right at the top Well, we get along swell till she suddenly fell for The music thats known as bop Oh, I tried to be so hep for her sake Till one day I made my fatal mistake
I beeped when I should have bopped Lapped when I should have lopped I was walking on air till she called me a square Cause I beeped when I should have bopped I dipped when I should have flipped I tripped when I should have hipped My romancing was fine till I got out of line Cause I beeped when I should have bopped
Oh-ya-coo, coo-ya-oo, oo-ba-doo, shmoo-ba-poo It all sounds the same to me Bla-de-da, da-de-bla, diddly-da, schmiddly-pa Is it something thats served with tea?
Hiccups!
I beeped when I should have bopped I heaped when I should have hopped I was giving my all to my bum of the ball And now Im blowing my top Cause I beeped when I should have bopped
Oh-ya-coo, coo-ya-oo, oo-ba-doo, schmoo-ba-poo
It all sounds the same to me
Bla-de-da, da-de-bla, diddly-da, schmiddly-pa Is it something thats served with tea?
I beeped when I should have bopped I heaped when I should have hopped I was giving my all to the bum of the ball And now Im blowing my top Cause I beeped
Je Sais Très Bien Composer(s): Jimmy Frey; L. Marichal Performer(s): Jimmy Frey
Je sais très bien que tu ne veux plus de moi Mais malgré ça et aussi malgré moi Je ne puis cesser de penser à toi Bien que tu ne le mérites pas
Je sais très bien notre amour est perdu Même le souvenir chez toi n'y est plus Nuit et jour je crois entendre ta voix Mais ta pitié ne parle pas.
Je t'en prie souviens toi toujours de moi Des merveilleux moments passés autrefois Où nous étions des amoureux bienheureux Car l'amour était pour nous deux
Je sais très bien que tu ne veux plus de moi Mais malgré tout et aussi malgré moi J'espère un jour que tu me comprendras Et qu'alors tu me reviendras.
Mais je sais bien que tu ne veux plus de moi Malgré moi, malgré toi Mais je sais très bien Que tu ne veux plus de moi
Time Between Composer(s): Chris Hillman Performer(s): The Byrds and multiple other artists
Don't say you love me Don't say you care You're so far away Telephone communication Only a three minute elation When I hear your voice
Through love and trust it's gonna work out fine The only pain I feel is al this time between You and me, you and me
All the days have turned to years Only emphasize my fears Since you said goodbye I can hear your voice at night I can read the words you write It's only love
Through love and trust it's gonna work out fine The only pain I feel is al this time between You and me, you and me
Now don't say you love me Don't say you care You're so far away I can hear your voice at night I can read the words you write It's only love
Through love and trust it's gonna work out fine The only pain I feel is al this time between You and me, you and me
Through love and trust it's gonna work out fine The only pain I feel is al this time between You and me, you and me

Oh tell me baby, when are you coming back home? Oh tell me baby, when are you coming back home? You know I love you baby, but you've been gone too long
Je Sais Que Tu Ne Peux Pas Trouver Mieux Ailleurs Composer(s): B. Killen; R. Riely Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday
Seul parmi la foule au milieu du quai C'est le dernier regard avant le premier regret Il s'éloigne doucement le train du soir Toi tu pars vers le soleil et l'avenir est noir
Va-t-en plus loin Je sais que tu ne peux pas trouver mieux ailleurs
Sous les néons rouges les bouges où l'ennui passe Des filles aux corps qui bougent m'ont fait l'amour dans une impasse Dans une bar j'ai vu ton visage tout au fond de mon verre J'ai cherché des coups au barman j'ai peur de tout si je te perds
Ouais, tu vas trop loin Je sais que tu ne peux pas trouver mieux ailleurs
Je vois les murs le plafond tanguer comme un bateau Allongé sur mon lit je défie ta photo Ma main dans la fumée s'agrippe au téléphone Je décroche comme un fou c'est le réveil qui sonne
Ouais, reviens Ouais, reviens Je sais que tu ne peux pas trouver mieux ailleurs
Je sais que tu ne peux pas trouver mieux ailleurs
Hum ouais Je sais que tu ne peux pas trouver mieux ailleurs...
Time And Time Again ((Swedish Version: Många Gånger Än (Agnetha Fältskog)) Composer(s): Agnetha Fältskog - Peter Himmelstrand - Bengt Palmers Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog
We'll find our own little places Time and time again Sleep together in the evenings Time and time again Wake up together, argue sometimes Make up and love each other Travel away and miss each other Time and time again
We'll be sad together And laugh at the same little jokes And always have someone to talk to And we'll sit idly in front of the TV And have a glass of red wine And then be so relaxed and tired, mmm...
We'll fly away on vacation Time and time again Have leftovers for dinner Time and time again Pinch our pennies, waste them sometimes Sing a brand new song Be excited about what will happen Time and time again
We'll have happy times When the world is open and light And times when dreams are shattered And we'll have thousands of little memories That we'll tenderly recall And forget all the sad ones the way people do
We'll find our own favorite places Time and time again Sleep together in the evenings Time and time again Wake up together, argue sometimes Make up and love each other Travel away and miss each other Time and time again
Een Lied Voor Kinderen Composer(s): Dimitri Van Toren
First release by: Dimitri Van Toren - 1973
Dit is een lied alleen voor kinderen Het is gisteren gemaakt Omdat ze morgen uitgespeeld zijn Een trappenhuis wordt nu hun speelplaats Een lied dat zingt "geef ze de ruimte" Een lied dat dartelt in de zon Over dichtbijzijnde polders Een liedje zomaar andersom Over een stad die autovrij was Met een muziektent op de markt En een levensgrote speeltuin Over de vogels in 't park
Stel je voor, je kon er spelen Op de straten, op het plein Ongestoord kon je er hinkelen De stad zou helemaal van jou zijn Ergens hoor je kind'ren tellen Je telt mee "acht, negen, tien" En je hoort na al die jaren "Wie niet weg is is gezien"
Dit is een lied alleen voor kind'ren In een land van koning welvaart Morgen zullen ze niet meer spelen Een stadsvogel vrij verklaard Een lied voor kleine zielige vogels Die als kind'ren zijn vermomd Wier vleugels men heeft kortgeknipt Hun gezang is haast verstomd
Je Sais Que Tu Danses Composer(s): J.P. Buccolo; Francis Cabrel Performer(s): Francis Cabrel
J'aimerais que le temps s'accélère Qu'il efface toutes nos scènes de guerre Et que cette histoire recommence Y a bien des nageurs qui reviennent Y a bien des forêts qui s'éteignent Y a bien des étoiles qui avancent Toi, je sais que tu danses ... Je sais que tu danses Je vois dans mes nuits écarlates Des diables et des dieux qui se battent Devant tes cheveux qui balancent Pendant que mes forces s'évaporent Pendant que mes mains cherchent ton corps Dans toute l'épaisseur du silence Je sais que tu danses ... Je sais que tu danses Je vois ton image partout Des croix sur les endroits où Depuis ton parfum se balance Je vois ton image partout... Je ferai de mon mieux pour sourire Je baisserai les yeux pour te dire Combien les hivers sont immenses Sans que tu prononces une parole Sans même que tes pieds touchent le sol Quand tu reviendras si t'y penses J'aimerais que tu danses ... J'aimerais que tu danses Y aura ton image partout Des croix sur les endroits où Depuis ton parfum se balance Y aura ton image partout... Y aura ton image partout Des croix sur les endroits où Je vois ton corps en transparence Y aura ton image partout... ...Y aura ton image partout...
