Jag såg i tidningen att nu finns det en chans för mig att åka billigt utomlands Det är tur för mig men synd om dig aha för om jag ser dig le mot nån annan kis tar jag planet till Paris Jag bor på hotell för en kväll skyll dig själv
Jag tänker hoppa ner från Eiffeltornet om du sviker mig men jag hoppas att jag stoppas i hissen upp av dig Ja jag hoppar ner från Eiffeltornet om du sviker mig men jag hoppas att jag stoppas i hissen upp av dig
Du vet att jag begär en liten bagatell jag vill ha dig för mig själv jag försöker att ta det kallt aha det är väl ganska bra att du är populär men det ställer bara till besvär Jag blir vilseledd förbisedd av dig
Jag tänker hoppa ner från Eiffeltornet om du lämmnar mig osv

I see the questions in your eyes I know what's weigh in on your mind But you can be sure I know my part 'Cause I'll stand beside you through the years You'll only cry those happy tears And though I'll make mistakes I'll never break your heart

I'll love you with every beat of my heart I Swear
I'll give you everything I can I'll build your dreams with these two hands We'll hang some memories on the walls And when, there's silver in your hair you won't have to ask if I still care 'Cause as time turns the page My love won't age at all
I swear by the moon and the stars in the sky I'll be there I swear like the shadow that's by your side I'll be there For better or worse Till death do us part
I'll love you with every beat of my heart I Swear

Try A Little Tenderness ((Dutch Version: Een Beetje Tederheid (Raymond van Het Groenewoud) - 1998)) Composer(s): Harold Woods - Jimmy Campbell - Reginald Connelly First recording/First release: Ray Noble and His Orch. - 1932/1933 Covered by multiple other artists
In the hustle of the day, we're all inclined to miss Little things that mean so much A word, a smile, and a kiss When a woman loves a man, he's a hero in her eyes And a hero he can always be if he'll just realise
She may be weary, women do get weary Wearing the same shabby dress And when she's weary, try a little tenderness
She may be waiting, just anticipating Things she may never possess While she's without them, try a little tenderness
It's not just sentimental, she has her grief and her care But a word that's soft and gentle makes it easier to bear
You won't regret it, women don't forget it Love is their whole happiness And it's all so easy, try a little tenderness
I Sure Miss You Composer(s): Tex Davis; Evelyn Bryan First release by: Gene Vincent & The Blue Caps - 1957
You took away my lovely dreams But I don't need those things at all You took away the kisses that I love You took away most everything But I don't miss one single thing But I, I sure miss you
I miss you every morning I miss you every night I miss you most of all whenever I wanna be loved just right
You took away most everything But I don't miss one single thing But I, I sure miss you
Well, I miss you every morning Well, I miss you every night Well, I miss you most of all whenever I wanna, I wanna be loved just right
You took away most everything But I don't miss one single thing But oh, I sure miss you
Eh L'amour! Composer(s): Jean Ferrat
Performer(s): Jean Ferrat; Zizi Jeanmaire
Eh l'amour tes gigolos ont su trouver l'filon Qu'ils fassent la rue ou qu'ils fassent des chansons Depuis l'temps qu'ils s'occupent de croquer tes millions Eh l'amour t'as mauvaise mine tu sais dans tes romans Et dans ces films où tu parais tout l'temps Entre une voiture de sport et deux téléphones blancs Eh l'amour si tu veux bien ce soir Oublie donc tes trottoirs Tes pin-ups tes dollars Eh l'amour et reviens-moi tout nu sur tes ergots Comme j't'ai connu quand on était jeunot Et qu'on n'avait rien sur le dos
Eh l'amour oui te voilà t'es bien toujours pareil T'as pas changé t'es comme cendre et soleil Tout gris quand tu t'endors et bleu à ton réveil Eh l'amour comme un grand frère viens t'asseoir à mes genoux Tu sais très bien que je n's'rai pas jaloux De tes bonheurs d'un jour de tes mômes à deux sous Eh l'amour quand tu défais leur lit Si tu vois l'paradis Tu pourrais m'faire des prix Eh l'amour avant d'courir vers d'autres rendez-vous Mets tes dentelles et rejoue moi frou frou Attention au voisin d'en d'ssous
Eh l'amour pardonne-nous tous nos accordéons Pardonne-nous ces vers de mirliton Qu'on chante à ton baptême ou pour ton oraison Eh l'amour depuis le temps qu'tu rimes avec toujours Si ça t'ennuie d'écouter nos discours On pourrait tous les deux s'en aller faire un tour Eh l'amour tu sais bien qu'avec moi Tu feras c'que tu voudras Qu'importe où l'on ira Eh l'amour déploie tes ailes comme un vrai chérubin On arriv'ra sans doute un beau matin Au septième ciel et même un peu plus loin
Een Beetje Tederheid ((Adapted from: Try A Little Tenderness (Ray Noble and His Orch.) - 1932/1933)) Composer(s): Harold Woods - Jimmy Campbell - Reginald Connelly - Raymond van Het Groenewoud Performer(s): Raymond van Het Groenewoud - 1998
Oh, ze mag dan triest zijn En meisjes, ze kunnen triest zijn Stervend van plotse eenzaamheid Maar wanneer ze triest is Probeer een beetje tederheid
Je weet, ze zit te wachten Vruchteloos zit ze te smachten Naar de diepste, diepste, diepste geborgenheid Maar terwijl ze zit te wachten Ga naar haar en geef een beetje tederheid
Nee, nee, nee, dit is geen domme smartlap, oh, nee Het is pijn, niemand voelt haar aan En één lief woordje, zacht voor haar gesproken Dat maakt het draaglijker, draaglijker in haar bestaan
Het zal je niet berouwen, o nee Ze zal het steeds onthouden Liefde, dat is hun hele zaligheid En eigenlijk, t is al zo simpel Al wat je moet doen Dat is geven, ja geven Een beetje, een beetje tederheid
Je moet haar helpen, strelen, verwarmen, omarmen Ga naar haar, oh, en geef een beetje tederheid Ja ja, ze heeft het nodig, ze heeft het nodig Luister naar mij
Je moet haar helpen, strelen, verwarmen, omarmen Ga naar haar, zachtjes, oh, en geef een beetje tederheid Ah, niemand, niemand ziet haar graag! Oh, luister
Je moet haar helpen, strelen, verwarmen, omarmen Ga! Ga dan toch! Ga! En geef een beetje tederheid Oh, helpen, helpen
Eh Ben ((Adapted from: Hey There (John Raitt) - 1954)) ((Danish Version: Hey There (Gustav Winckler) - 1964)) Composer(s): Jerry Ross - Richard Adler - A. Lesser Performer(s): Dalida - 1956
Eh ben! Toi qui te croyais si forte Toi qui semblais si sur de toi Qu'es ce qu'il t'arrive là
Eh ben! Voila que soudain tu t'emportes Et tu te vois déjà dans ses bras Lui qui n'a pas un regard pour toi Allons oublie le Lui et son rire dans les yeux Lui qui s'amuse avec ton cur Lui et ses airs vainqueur
Tu n'y vois donc plus clair Tu n'es donc plus sur terre Je voudrais que tu te réveilles Mais je vois bien que mes conseils Dés qu'ils entrent par une oreille S'en vont par l'autre
Tu n'y vois donc plus clair Tu n'es donc plus sur terre Je voudrais que tu te réveilles Mais je vois bien que mes conseils Dés qu'ils entrent par une oreille S'en vont par l'autre
Try A Little Kindness Composer(s): Bobby Austin - Curt Sapaugh First release: Glen Campbell - 1969 Covered by multiple other artists
If you see your brother standing by the road With a heavy load from the seeds he's sowed And if you see your sister falling by the way Just stop and stay you're going the wrong way
You got to try a little kindness Yes show a little kindness Just shine your light for everyone to see And if you try a little kindness Then you'll overlook the blindness Of narrow-minded people on the narrow-minded streets
Don't walk around the down and out Lend a helping hand instead of doubt And the kindness that you show every day Will help someone along their way
You got to try a little kindness Yes show a little kindness Just shine your light for everyone to see And if you try a little kindness Then you'll overlook the blindness Of narrow-minded people on the narrow-minded streets
You got to try a little kindness Yes show a little kindness Just shine your light for everyone to see And if you try a little kindness Then you'll overlook the blindness Of narrow-minded people on the narrow-minded streets
Egyptland Performer(s): Bartley Costello - W. Casey
Drift o'ver the sun kissed desert Stop where the old Nile flows There's where my heart is roaming There's where I left my rose Pretty as Cleopatra, mild as the summer breeze Egypt I dwell in your land Tho' far across the seas
To pyramids and sand dunes Wonders of puny man Nightly with joy I wander In a dream caravan Seated high on my camel Free as the very air But I wake from dreaming And sigh that I'm not there
Egypt land Land of my river Nile Life with you made living well worth while Egypt land, keep the rose I left there faithful And I'll be true To you my Egypt land
Well, it comes down to this She's caught on to the clues now He's got the news He understands She's not all wrapped up in the palm of his hand Juliet, she won't come down Her head's high in the castle Her heart's underground It's as if, she didn't know The truth about Romeo The truth about Ro-o-Romeo
Nighthawks at the diner
Emma's 49er
There's a rendezvous of strangers
Around the coffee urn tonight
All the gypsy hacks and the insomniacs
Now the paper's been read
Now the waitress said
Eggs and sausage and a side of toast
Coffee and a roll, hash browns over easy
Chile in a bowl with burgers and fries
What kind of pie?
It's a graveyard charade it's a late shift masquerade
And it's 2 for a quarter, dime for a dance
Woolworth rhinestone diamond earrings and a sideway's glance
Now the register rings
Now the waitress sings
Eggs and sausage and a side of toast
Coffee and a roll, hash browns over easy
Chile in a bowl with burgers and fries
What kind of pie?
The classified section offers no direction
It's a cold caffeine in a nicotine cloud
Now the touch of your fingers
Lingers burning in my memory
I've been 86ed from your scheme
Now I'm in a melodramatic nocturnal scene
Now I'm a refugee from a disconcerted affair
Now the lead pipe morning fall
Now the waitress call
Eggs and sausage, now a side of toast
Coffee and a roll, hash browns over easy
Chile in a bowl with burgers and fries
And now what kind of pie?
À la mode if you will
Just come in and join the crowd
Have some time to kill
See I just come in to join the crowd
Have some time to kill
Just come in to join the crowd
'Cause I have some time to kill

I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For Composer(s): Bono; The Edge; Adam Clayton; Larry Mullen First release by: U2 - 1987 Covered by multiple other artists
I have climbed highest mountain I have run through the fields Only to be with you Only to be with you
I have run I have crawled I have scaled these city walls These city walls Only to be with you
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
I have kissed honey lips Felt the healing in her fingertips It burned like fire This burning desire
I have spoke with the tongue of angels I have held the hand of a devil It was warm in the night I was cold as a stone
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
I believe in the kingdom come Then all the colors will bleed into one Bleed into one Well yes I'm still running
You broke the bonds and you Loosed the chains Carried the cross Of my shame Of my shame You know I believed it
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for But I still haven't found what I'm looking for But I still haven't found what I'm looking for But I still haven't found what I'm looking for...
