Tragic Romance Composer(s): Louis Marshall Jones - Zeke Morris - Wiley Morris Performer(s): Cowboy Copas and multiple other artists
Nestled in the heart of the Tennessee hills Midst peaceful pines 'neath the rocks and the rills There stands my old homestead of long years ago Brings back sweet memories of the one I loved so
I courted a maiden so sweet and so fair With pearly blue eyes and with chestnut brown hair She promised to love and said she'd be mine But I went away leaving her there behind
I'll tell you the reason why I left her there To roam this old world with its sorrow and cares I saw her one night in the arms of a man Hugging and kissing as true lovers can
I went to my home with a heart full of woe Packed my belongings, determined to go For many long years this old world I did roam With thoughts of my sweetheart, my darling, my own
While dining one day in a little country town A stranger came in and he chanced to sit down While talking of loved ones I happened to find That his sister was that old sweetheart of mine
Now, I am the man who you saw that fateful night Wrapped in the arms of my sister so tight She waited so long for the day you'd return And why you had left her she never did learn
When he heard my story to me then he said The one that you loved has a long time been dead She loved you so dearly, but you broke her heart Poor stranger, from her ever more you must part
I Me Mine Composer(s): George Harrison First release by: The Beatles - 1970 Covered by multiple other artists
All through the day I me mine, I me mine, I me mine All through the night I me mine, I me mine, I me mine Mow they're frightened of leaving it Everyone's reading it coming on strong all the time
All through the day I me mine I me, me, mine, I me, me, mine I me, me, mine
All I can hear I me mine, I me mine, I me mine Even those tears I me mine, I me mine, I me mine No one's frightened of playing it Everyone's saying it Flowing more freely than wine
All through the day I me mine I me, me, mine, I me, me, mine I me, me, mine
All I can hear I me mine, I me mine, I me mine Even those tears I me mine, I me mine, I me mine No one's frightened of playing it Everyone's saying it Flowing more freely that wine
Just Remember I Love You Composer(s): Rick Roberts Performer(s): Firefall; Beki Hemingway; Barry Manilow
When it all goes crazy and the thrill is gone The days get rainy and the nights get long When you get that feelin' you were born to lose Staring at your ceiling thinkin' of your blues
When there's so much trouble that you want to cry The world has crumbled and you don't know why When your hopes are fading and they can't be found Dreams have left you waiting, friends have let you down
Just remember I love you And it'll be alright Just remember I love you More than I can say Maybe then your blues will fade away
When you need a lover and you're down so low Start to wonder, but you never know When it feels like sorrow is your only friend Knowing that tomorrow you'll feel this way again
When the blues come callin' at the break of dawn Rain keeps fallin', but the rainbow's gone When you feel like crying but the tears won't come When your dreams are dyin', when you're on the run
Just remember I love you And it'll be alright Just remember I love you More than I can say Just remember I love you And it'll be alright It'll be alright It'll be alright It'll be alright

Here I lie in a lost and lonely part of town Held in time In a world of tears I slowly drown Goin' home I just can't make it all alone I really should be holding you Holding you Loving you loving you
Tragedy When the feeling's gone and you can't go on It's tragedy When the morning cries and you don't know why It's hard to bear With no-one to love you you're goin' nowhere Tragedy When you lose control and you got no soul It's tragedy When the morning cries and you don't know why It's hard to bear With no-one beside you you're goin' nowhere When the feeling's gone and you can't go on
Night and day there's a burning down inside of me Burning love With a yearning that won't let me be Down I go and I just can't take it all alone I really should be holding you Holding you Loving you loving

Just Out Of Reach (Of My Two Open Arms) Composer(s): Virgil F. Stewart Performer(s): Patsy Cline; and various other artists
Love that runs away from me Dreams that just won't let me be Blues that keep on both'rin' me Chains that just won't set me free Too far away from you and all your charms Just out of reach of my two open arms
Each night in dreams I see your face Mem'ries time cannot erase Then I awake and find you've gone I'm so blue, I'm all alone So far away from lips so sweet and warm Just out of reach of my two open arms
(That lonesome feeling all the time) (Knowing you cannot be mine) Dreams that hurt me in my sleep Vows that we could never keep Too far away from lips so sweet and warm Just out of reach of my two open arms
Y te digo que desde adentro yo me puedo mover hice un agujero en una inmensa pared prendí la radio y escuche y escuche 200 chicos mueren hoy sin su AZT Dime Dios: Hay stop? donde estés dímelo si hablábamos de luz del trafico por Katmandu
No todo el mundo va a dejarse caer no todo el mundo va a arrastrarse a tus pies lo que me falta no es la falta de fe tendrías que pensarlo seriamente esta vez ademan Art Deco muéstrame quémalo si hablábamos de luz debajo de la Cruz del Sur
No tengo prisa no hay a donde llegar este milagro es de un perfecto cristal sabiduría pop me lo hizo entender que siempre fue lo mismo el mono y Citizen Kane yo también perdí quimeras pero me hice buen voyeur
Y te digo que desde adentro nos podemos mover hace un agujero en una inmensa pared después sácate poco a poco la piel la sangre es para siempre nada puedes hacer además, vos y yo ámame por favor si amábamos la luz debajo de la Cruz del Sur
Siempre mas, never stop te ofrecí mi corazón si hablábamos de luz del trafico por Katmandu

Just One Smile Composer(s): Randy Newman Performer(s): Gene Pitney; and various other artists

I don't ask for much A look, a smile, a touch Try to forget Lord knows, I'm trying It's so hard to forget When your whole world you know is dying
Just one smile means forgiving Just one kiss, the hurt's all gone Just one smile to make my life worth living A little dream to build my world upon
Just one smile please forgiving Just one kiss, hurt's all gone Just one smile to make my life worth living A little dream to build my world upon Just one smile

Traffic vertu J'aime ou je tue Magique exclu Hors de ma vue Je t'aime encore J'envoie d'abord Le cri des villes Sur du vinyle
Taxi driver Nud de vipères Flic solitaire Tombé par terre Amour porno Chacun sa peau Je vends du spleen Tu vends du jean
Lentement je vois Cet univers-là Glisser vers le froid Le compte à rebours Dans l'air nucléaire Les derniers rebelles Brûlent sous les lasers Du manque d'amour
Que veux-tu que je sois Dans cette société-là? Un ange ou un cobra Un tueur ou un rat? Où veux-tu que je vive Dans la radioactive? Comment veux-tu que je meure D'un bel accord mineur?
Plastic de choc Crédit ou cash Plus on se cache Plus on décroche Je suis accroc Chez les dingos Milliards de flash Qui jouent au squash
Regarde-toi Regarde-moi On n'se voit plus On est perdus Dans le vacarme Du bruit qui court Je t'ai menti Je t'aime encore
Lentement je vois Cet univers-là Glisser vers le froid Le compte à rebours Dans l'air nucléaire Les derniers rebelles Brûlent sous les lasers Du manque d'amour
Que veux-tu que je sois Dans cette société-là? Un ange ou un cobra Un tueur ou un rat? Où veux-tu que je vive Dans la radioactive? Comment veux-tu que je meure D'un bel accord mineur?

Será arte?
I Made It Through The Rain Composer(s): Gerard W. Kenny; Drey Shepperd Performer(s): Barry Manilow and multiple other artists
We dreamers have our ways Of facing rainy days And somehow we survive We keep our feelings warm Protect them from the storm Until our time arrives Then one day the sun appears And we come shining through Those lonely years
I made it through the rain I kept my world protected I made it through the rain I kept my point of view I made it through the rain And found myself respected By the others who Got rained on too And made it through
When friends are hard to find And life seems so unkind Sometimes you feel afraid Just aim beyond the clouds And rise above the crowds And start your own parade 'Cause when I chased my fears away That's when I knew I could finally say...
I made it through the rain I kept my world protected I made it through the rain I kept my point of view I made it through the rain And found myself respected By the others who Got rained on too And made it through
A true musician plays Through all the rainy days And every song survives He takes the stage by storm And keeps the music warm Until his luck arrives And then a melody appears Taking him past Those weather beaten years...
I made it through the rain I kept my world protected I made it through the rain I kept my point of view I made it through the rain And found myself respected By the others who Got rained on too And made it through
No matter how it rains A singer entertains And music must be made Before you draw the crowd Your pour your heart out loud And start your own parade Then you play the clouds away Waiting until you hear Your music say...
Then you play the clouds away Waiting until you hear Your music say...
I made it through the rain I kept my world protected I made it through the rain I kept my point of view I made it through the rain And found myself respected By the others who Got rained on too And made it through
