Haar glimlach kan doden haar ogen beloven dingen die jij alleen gelooft in je dromen ze laat alleen dat zien wat jou aan haar bindt ze jokt als een kind maar toch blijft ze mijn beste vriendin
Haar liefde verwart ze verleidt of verlaat je je geeft haar je hart en ze lacht en verraad je ze nam wat ik weggaf vanaf het begin ze steelt als een dief maar toch blijft ze mijn beste vriendin
Oh, ze past goed op zichzelf en ze heeft alle tijd want de tijd is van haar Oh, ze geeft zich nooit bloot ze geeft zelden iets toe maakt alleen een gebaar
Ze toont je de hemel, ze geeft je de hel ze wil echt wel trouw zijn alleen aan zichzelf wil jij zoet, wil zij zout zij krijgt altijd haar zin geef jezelf maar de schuld want ze blijft toch mijn beste vriendin
Oh, ze past goed op zichzelf en ze heeft alle tijd want de tijd is van haar Oh, ze geeft zich nooit bloot ze geeft zelden iets toe maakt alleen een gebaar
Voor onschuld te ijdel voor jou veel te snel je kan haar niet winnen want jij bent haar spel veroordeel haar niet omdat ik haar bemin ach, ze geeft niets om jou ze is meer dan m'n vrouw ze is altijd m'n beste vriendin Veroordeel haar niet omdat ik haar bemin ze is meer dan m'n vrouw

Performer(s): Helena Vondrácková - 1979
Sie ist süß, wenn sie lächelt Und lieb, wenn sie weint Wenn sie bös ist,denkst du Sie hat's nicht so gemeint Wie ein Kätzchen treibt sie Mit der Maus gern ihr Spiel Mir scheint sie ist eben Ein Engel, der weiß, was er will
Du erkennst ihre Tricks Du durchschaust ihre Lügen Doch schon mit einem Blick Kann sie dich wieder kriegen Du willst reden, sie küßt dich Dann wirst du ganz still Sie lockt mit dem Himmel Ein Engel, der weiß, was er will
Oh, sie lenkt dich nur ganz sacht Und gibt dir das Gefühl Alles geht nur nach dir Oh, oft genügt eine Nacht Und schon ist sie am Ziel Sie kennt Mittel dafür
Sie beschwört ihre Liebe Mit Augengeklimper Dann zerreißt sie dein Herz Und zuckt nicht mit der Wimper Und sie sieht dich verbluten Dabei bleibt sie ganz kühl Niemand tut gern so weh Wie ein Engel, der weiß, was er will
Oh, sie lenkt dich nur ganz sacht Und gibt dir das Gefühl Alles geht nur nach dir Oh, oft genügt eine Nacht Und schon ist sie am Ziel Sie kennt Mittel dafür
Hat sie dich erst gekränkt Ist es sie, die verzeiht Sie verletzt dich mit Absicht Und dir tut es Leid Immer wenn ich's mit anseh Hab ich das Gefühl Nur der Teufel allein Könnte herzloser sein Als ein Engel, der weiß, was er will

She's A Mystery To Me Composer(s): Dr. David Evans; Paul Hewson Performer(s): Roy Orbison; The Hungry Ghost
Darkness falls and she will take me by the hand Take me to some twilight land Where all but love is grey Where I can't find my way Without her as my guide
Night falls I'm cast beneath here spell Daylight comes our heaven torn to hell Am I left to burn And burn eternally She's a mystery to me She's a mystery girl She's a mystery girl
In the night of love words tangled in her hair Words soon to disappear A love so sharp it cut like a switchblade to my heart Words tearing me apart She tears again my bleeding heart I want to run she's pulling me apart Fallen angel cries Then I just melt away She's a mystery to me She's a mystery girl She's a mystery girl She's a mystery girl
Haunted by her side is the darkness in her eyes That so enslaves me But if my love is blind then I don't want to see She's a mystery to me
Night falls I'm cast beneath her spell Daylight comes our heaven torn to hell Am I left to burn And burn eternally She's a mystery to me She's a mystery girl She's a mystery girl She's a mystery girl

Shepherd Of The Hills Composer(s): Horatio Nicholls; Edgar Leslie Performer(s): Jack Hylton
When day is breaking and birds are awaking I'm blue when the sun starts to beam Night-time a-stealing is much more appealing As I lay me down to dream I see my homeland where love is supreme....
Shepherd of the hills, I hear you calling Shepherd of the hills, when twilight falls I seem to picture the black sheep returning I miss the fold, and my sad heart is yearning For the daffodils and crimson clover By the rocks and rills I long to roam Back to the near ones and dear ones who love me Shepherd of the hills, I'm coming home
Over the highway as I'm wending my way I look toward the house in the lane There with her knitting I see someone sitting She looks through the window pane She knows her waiting has not been in vain....
Shepherd of the hills, I hear you calling Shepherd of the hills, when twilight falls I seem to picture the black sheep returning I miss the fold, and my sad heart is yearning For the daffodils and crimson clover By the rocks and rills I long to roam Back to the near ones and dear ones who love me Shepherd of the hills, I'm coming home

I can't conceal the tender feeling Now that you are close to me I look at you with tender feeling And can't help kiss you tenderly
