Door Of The Sun ((Adapted from: Alle Porte Del Sole (Gigliola Cinquetti) - 1973)) ((Finnish Version: Vasten Auringon Siltaa (Katri Helena) - 1975)) Composer(s): Corrado Conti - Lorenzo Pilat - Mario Panzeri - Daniele Pace - Norman Newell Performer(s): Gigliola Cinquetti - 1973
I look in the mirror, but I look at a stranger Can this be the sensible me who said he wouldn't fall in love I suddenly saw you, and I knew there was danger Why run away when I love you and want you forever I know I'm a dreamer, but I don't want to wake up Whenever you touch me I can fly to the sky
Alle porte del sole, ai confini del mare Quante volte col pensiero, ti ho portato insieme a me E nel buio sognavo, la tua mano leggera Ogni porta che si apriva, mi sembrava primavera
Alle porte del sole, ai confini del mare Quante volte col pensiero, ti ho portato insieme a me Ti ho portato insieme a me, ti ho portato insieme a me
I look in the future, the golden tomorrows As long as you're walking beside me, I'll always be a dreamer As long as we're sharing, the smiles and the sorrows Make everyday we're together, a day to remember I have no illusions, just a heart full of lovin' It's a wonderful world I know, whenever you're near
To the door of the sun, to the ends of the sea I will travel anywhere as long as you are there with me On the wings of the wind, in the arms of a storm It is always summer weather, with your love to keep me warm
Alle porte del sole, ai confini del mare Quante volte col pensiero, ti ho portato insieme a me Ti ho portato insieme a me, ti ho portato insieme a me Insieme a me
I Don't Wanna Be Tied Composer(s): Bill Giant; Bernie Baum; Florence Kaye Performer(s): Elvis Presley
I want my share of love, it might as well be known But I ain't thinking of one girl to love alone That ain't the way it's gonna be I'm on my own and I am free And I've been satisfied, so I don't wanna be tied
Somebody's loving arms can sure be sweet I've found But I want no-one's arms to ever hold me down Once I get caught inside a net I'm gonna run I bet I'm gonna run and hide, I don't wanna be tied
I've seen lovers who were matched They thought that love could stay Once they cared and got attached, it seems that love just slipped away Don't want no claims on me, don't want no chains that bind As anyone could see I say what's on my mind Well there ain't nothing I conceal, I'm gonna play the field The field of love is wide
I don't wanna be tied The field of love is wide I don't wanna be tied The field of love is wide I don't wanna be tied I said I don't, I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be tied
J'Entends La Sirène Composer(s): Raymond Asso; Marguerite Monnot Performer(s): Edith Piaf
J'entends encore la sirène Du beau navire tout blanc Qui, voilà bien des semaines Va des Iles sous le Vent Lorsqu'à la marée montante Il entra dans le vieux port Je riais, j'étais contente Et mon cur battait très fort
Le vent chantait sur la dune Et jouait avec la mer Où se reflétait la lune Dans le ciel, tout était clair Le premier qui vint à terre Fut un jeune moussaillon Le deuxième, un vieux grand-père Puis un homme à trois galons Donnez-moi, ô capitaine Du beau navire tout blanc Qui venait des mers lointaines Un beau marin pour amant Je l'attendrai sur la dune Là-bas, tout près de la mer Au ciel brillera la lune Dans mon cur tout sera clair Il est venu, magnifique Avec une flamme... en Dieu Venant des lointains tropiques Savait des mots merveilleux Me piqua toute une bague Me jura d'éternels serments Que se répétaient les vagues En clapotant doucement Nous étions seuls sur la dune Le vent caressait la mer Dans le ciel riait la lune Et lui mordait dans ma chair Il partit sur son navire Son beau navire tout blanc Et partit sans me le dire Un soir, au soleil couchant
J'entends toujours la sirène Du bateau qui l'emporta Sa voix hurla, inhumaine "Tu ne le reverras pas!" Et, depuis lors, sous la lune Je vais écouter le vent Qui vient le soir, sous la dune Me parler de mon amant
Women Of Today ((French Version: Les Filles d'Aujourd'hui (Charles Aznavour)) Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - Herbert Kretzmer Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Anywhere I stare, girls are always there in plenty Nearly fully bloomed, curly and perfumed and scenty And I get as high as I did when I was twenty You carry me away, women of today
In their denim jeans, to the tv screen they glue me Thoughts of ev'ry kind, in my dreamy mind pursue me Can't they realise how their pretty eyes undo me You're more than I can say, women of today
I'm completely attracted, it's true But what does it take to make it with you
Back in sixty-two, all we had to do was flatter With a little wine and a little line of chatter But to modern birds, all the charming words don't matter Oh, teach me what to say, women of today
Since the world began, woman was for man created She may treat him rough, he may feel he's suffocated Still he takes the knocks, like a fool intoxicated You hold us in your sway, women of today
Walking down the street, good enough to eat, she thrills me In a passing crowd, arrogant and proud, she chills me Lying on the beach, just beyond my reach, it kills me Near, yet so far away, women of today
You take your independence with ease But I'm on my knees, oh, liberate me, please
Out of Adam's rib you have won your liberation But you can't destroy that old girl meets boy vibration Any guys's a nut who denies that gut sensation You take my breath away, women of today
I Don't Wanna Be A One Night Stand Composer(s): Layng Martine Jr. Performer(s): Reba McEntire
Now you ask me if I will go with you Well I'd like to but I don't know if it's right Are you looking for someone to care for you Or just someone to love you tonight
Well I don't want to be a one night stand So if that's what you got planned Baby before we go you better let me know I don't want to be a one night stand
It been so long since I've had some loving And your kisses make me wish that you were mine Now it'd be so easy for me to fall for you And let myself have a good time
Well I don't want to be a one night stand So if that's what you got planned Baby before we go you better let me know I don't want to be a one night stand
Well I don't want to be a one night stand So if that's what you got planned Baby before we go you better let me know I don't want to be a one night stand
Well I don't want to be a one night stand So if that's what you got planned Baby before we go you better let me know I don't want to be a one night stand
First a boy and a girl meet each other Then they sit down to talk for a while In your heart you'll want her for a lover while each step draws you closer to the aisle You may start with a simple conversation My darling please put me on trial She says yes and your heart starts beating While each step draws you closer to the aisle You ask her if she loves you She answers "I do" Your heart starts glowing inside And then you will know she is just for you While each step draws you closer to the aisle Then you put a ring on her finger And the tears start flowing awhile Then you'll know she's yours forever While each step draws you closer to the aisle
I Don't Think That Man Should Sleep Alone Performer(s): Ray Parker Jr.
I don't think that man should sleep alone I don't think it's fair Do you baby
I don't think that man should sleep alone Some body should be there
This world that we live in Has too many laws and too many rules The thought of you and me sleeping here Seems like everybody disapproves
Now I'm not I'm not saying That I'm right and everyone else is wrong I admit I've got a problem I can't stand sleeping alone
I don't think that man should sleep alone I don't think it's fair Do you baby
I can't seem to get warm enough Evene with four blankets and a sheet I may as well be honest girl I think I need a little body heat
Wake up wake up baby Yes I know it's a quarter to 3:00 a.m. But either you're coming here or I'm coming there 'Cause I just can't get to sleep
I don't think that man should sleep alone I don't think it's fair Do you baby
Baby come on I want to feel you lying next to me Don't you baby
Sugar come on Rock this baby to sleep
Come on come on Let's hold each other real good Come on come on I won't try nothing baby Come on come on But honey it could feel good If you'll only let loose; come on
I don't think that man should sleep alone I don't think it's fair Do you baby
Help me baby Baby come on I need body heat Don't you baby
Sugar come on girl I want to feel your heat Baby come on Rock Rock me to sleep
J'Entends Frapper Composer(s): Michel Pagliaro Performer(s): Nuance Et Sandra
Trouver Trouver j'espère toujours retrouver Quelqu'un Quelqu'un qui pourrait m'aider
Tout ceux Tout ceux que je croyais mes amis Ils m'ont Ils m'ont tous laissé tomber
J'entends frapper Enfin ma chance a tourné Je suis heureux d'apprendre Que tout n'est pas terminé
Rouler Rouler il est encore temps de rouler Personne Personne ne peut m'arrêter
Plus loin Plus loin toujours idée d'aller plus loin C'est ma C'est ma seule raison d'exister
J'entends frapper Et que j'veux y entrer Je suis heureux d'apprendre Que tout n'est pas terminé J'entends frapper Mais je n'ai rien oublié Ce n'est pas seulement la chance Qui me fera gagner
Unis Unis nous voilà enfin réunis Nous sommes Nous sommes tous en frères La main La main oui tous la main dans la main Allons Allons tous partager
J'entends frapper Et tous veulent partager Ce n'est pas seulement la chance Qui les a ammené J'entend frapper Mais je n'ai rien oublié Ce n'est pas seulement la chance Qui me fera gagner
Through Your Eyes Composer(s): Suzy Bogguss - Doug Crider Performer(s): Suzy Bogguss
I look out at the Winter sky, it's grey and overcast Another year has flown right by, these days they go so fast I look down at your tiny face and I see things your way You don't mind if it's too cold to go outside and play If it might snow on Christmas Day, then, through your eyes The World looks bright, all lit up with coloured lights When I think that I lost sight of it, I realise That through your eyes there's magic in a tree And in the smiles of family, and I wish The whole World could see Christmas through your eyes
So I get you all bundled up and brave the downtown shops Find along that time is short, the traffic never stops Your little hand pulls me through the crowded sidewalk maze To see the elves and reindeer and department store displays Well I see Christmas in your face and through your eyes The World looks bright, all lit up with coloured lights When I think that I lost sight of it, I realise That through your eyes there's magic in a tree And in the smiles of family, and I wish The whole World could see Christmas through your eyes
And through your eyes there's magic in a tree And in the smiles of family, and I wish The whole World could see Christmas through the eyes of a child I wish the whole World could see Christmas through your eyes
I Don't Stand A Ghost Of A Chance With You Composer(s): Victor Young; Bing Crosby; Ned Washington First release/First performance by: Bing Crosby/Maurice Chevalier - 1933/1935 Covered by multiple other artists
I need your love so badly I love you oh so madly But I don't stand a ghost of a chance with you I thought at last I found you But other loves surround you And I don't stand a ghost of a chance with you If you'd surrender Just for a tender Kiss or two You might discover That I'm the lover Meant for you And I'd be true But what's the good of scheming I'm dreaming For I don't stand a ghost of a chance with you Cuz I don't stand A ghost of a chance With you
Dear Susan, I know you love me so But I want to hear it in my ear You know I'd be there working at my craft Had it not been for the draft Dry up your tear and feel no fear You're here with me like I'm there with you
To Susan on the West Coast waiting From Andy in Vietnam fighting To Susan on the West Coast waiting From Andy in Vietnam fighting
I'm writing a note beneath a tree The smell of the rain on the greenery Our fathers have painfully lost their way That's why, my love, I'm here today Hear me when I say there will come a day When Kings will know and love can grow
To Susan on the West Coast waiting From Andy in Vietnam fighting To Susan on the West Coast waiting From Andy in Vietnam fighting To Susan on the West Coast waiting From Andy in Vietnam fighting To Susan on the West Coast waiting From Andy in Vietnam fighting
Susan, I know you love me so but I'd like to hear it in my ear You know I'd be there working at my craft Had it not been for the draft Dry up your tear and feel no fear You're here with me like I'm there with you
To Susan on the West Coast waiting From Andy in Vietnam fighting To Susan on the West Coast waiting From Andy in Vietnam fighting To Susan on the West Coast waiting From Andy supposedly hating To Susan on the West Coast waiting From Andy in Vietnam fighting
J'Entends Cette Musique Composer(s): Jacques Datin; Robert Gall Performer(s): France Gall
J'entends cette musique Cette douce musique Qui me répète toujours Il arrivera le jour Le jour où je l'aimerai À la saison de mes amours
J'entends cette musique Cette douce musique Qui accompagne sans fin Mon grand amour en chemin Pour me prendre par le cur Et m'emporter vers le bonheur

J'entends cette musique Cette douce musique Qui me répète toujours Il arrivera le jour Le jour où je l'aimerai À la saison de mes amours À la saison de mes amours

I Don't Remember Loving You Composer(s): Harlan Howard; Bobby Braddock Performer(s): John Conlee
I don't remember loving you And I don't recall the things You say you put me through You tell me that you've had A guilty conscience for so long You say that you walked out on me You say you did me wrong Well, I just don't see how that could be true 'Cause I don't remember loving you
I don't remember loving you You might talk to my doctor He drops by each day at two I get a funny feeling When I look into your eyes There's something in your smile That gives my stomach butterflies You must look like someone I once knew But I don't remember loving you
I don't remember loving you I heard you mention children Did you say there's one or two? You say I quit my job And then I drank myself insane You say that I ran down the highway Screaming out your name Well, that's not the sort of thing that I would do No, I don't remember loving you
I don't remember loving you I absolutely positively Know that can't be true But everyone I know here in this place Is really strange If you'll hand me my crayons I'll be glad to take your name In case I run across that guy you knew But I don't remember loving you
I don't remember loving you And I don't recall the things You say you put me through You tell me that you've had A guilty conscience for so long You say that you walked out on me You say you did me wrong Well, I just don't see how that could be true 'Cause I don't remember loving you
J'entends sa voix qui me dit: "T'en vas pas Si tu pars j'en mourrai, je ne puis vivre sans toi A notre amour crois-moi, je ne survivrai pas Ne brise pas ma vie, ne jette pas nos joies Dans la rue" J'entends encore son cri de désespoir Je vois ses mains tendues pour agripper l'espoir Cherchant à retenir et mon amour et ma voix Et je me vois partir pour oublier tout ça Dans la rue
Une fois dans la rue je reviens en courant Pour voir toute une foule qui fixe mon amant Debout sur sa fenêtre Je pourrais le sauver Mais la foule m'arrête M'empêchant de passer J'entends le coeur de la foule qui bat Et le vent qui s'arrête pour voir ce qu'il y a Et le bruit de la vie qui ce fout de tout ça Et là-haut mon amour prêt à se je ter en bas Dans la rue
J'entends des voix qui disent autour de moi C'est l'amour paraît-il qui le pousse a faire ça Paraît qu'elle est partie avec un autre gars Moi je reste sans geste au milieu de tout ça Dans la rue
Un prêtre est en prière, une femme est en pleurs les secondes sur terre ressemblent à des heures Puis un corps dans le vide Allez rentrez chez vous Partez, faites le vide Allez rentrez chez vous "T'en vas pas je ne puis vivre sans toi Je ne survivrai pas, je ne survivrai pas!"
To Sir With Love Composer(s): Mark London - Don Black First release by: Lulu - 1967 Covered by multiple other artists
Those schoolgirl days Of telling tales, and biting nails, are gone But in my mind I know they will, will still live on and on
But how do you thank someone Who has taken you from crayons to perfume? It isn't easy, but I'll try If you wanted the sky I would write across the sky in letters That would soar a thousand feet high "To Sir, With Love"
The time has come For closing books; and long last looks must end And as I leave I know that I am leaving my best friend
A friend who taught me right from wrong And weak from strong -- that's a lot to learn What? What can I give you in return? If you wanted the moon I would try to make a start... but I Would rather you let me give my heart To Sir, With Love

I don't need your rockin' chair Your Geritol or Medicare I still got neon in my veins This gray hair don't mean a thing I do my rockin' on the stage You can't put this possum in a cage My body's old but it ain't impaired I don't need your rockin' chair
I ain't ready for the junkyard yet 'Cause I still feel like a new Corvette It may take a little longer but I'll get there I don't need no rockin' chair
I don't need your rockin' chair Your Geritol or Medicare I still got neon in my veins This gray hair don't mean a thing I do my rockin' on the stage You can't put this possum in a cage My body's old but it ain't impaired I don't need your rockin' chair
Retirement don't fit my plan You can take your seat, I'm gonna stand An Eskimo needs a frigidair But I don't need no rockin' chair
I don't need your rockin' chair Your Geritol or Medicare I still got neon in my veins This gray hair don't mean a thing I do my rockin' on the stage You can't put this possum in a cage My body's old but it ain't impaired I don't need your rockin' chair
My body's old but it ain't impaired Yeah I don't need no rockin' chair
