No one told me about her The way she lied Well, no one told me about her How many people cried
Well, its too late to say youre sorry How would I know, why should I care Please dont bother trying to find her Shes not there...oh oh oh
Nobody told me about her What could I do Well, nobody told me about her Though they all knew
Well, its too late to say youre sorry How would I know, why should I care Please dont bother trying to find her Shes not there....
Well, let me tell you about the way she looked The way she acted, the color of her hair Her voice is soft and cool Her eyes are clear and bright But shes not there...

E' cosi' triste il tuo pianto Ma lui non e' qui' Tu sai capire soltanto Che lui non e' qui' E non importa che io ti amo Perche' nel cuor hai solo lui Se con gli occhi ci incontriamo Pero' tu Ma non e' giusto quello che fai tu No non e' giusto di far soffrire me Non lo aspettare piu' Non tornera' lo sai Mai piu' con te Ma quello che tu non dici Io posso capir Lui ti farebbe felice Ma lui non e' qui Non ti dovrei piu' dire t'amo Ma gia' lo so che non potrei Non saprei pensarti mai vicino a lui Ma non e' giusto quello che fai tu No non e' giusto di far soffrire me Non lo aspettare piu' Non tornera' lo sai Mai piu' da te E non importa che io ti amo Perche' nel cuor hai solo lui Se con gli occhi ci incontriamo Pero' tu Ma non e' giusto quello che fai tu No non e' giusto di far soffrire me Non lo aspettare piu' Non tornera' lo sai Mai piu' da te

Je suis seul avec ma peine Quand tu n'es pas là Et je ne suis plus le même Quand tu n'es pas là
Mais demain Je pourrai te dire Combien je t'aime Oh oui combien! Enfin, je pourrai te dire "Te voilà!"
Et je crierai très loin en te voyant Et je crierai, fier, au vu de ces gens Tant pis s'ils me croient fou Que m'importe après tout Tu seras là
Dans la vie tout m'indiffère Quand tu n'es pas là Et je ne sais plus que faire Quand tu n'es pas là
Mais demain Je pourrai te dire Combien je t'aime Oh oui combien! Enfin, je pourrai te dire "Te voilà!"
Et si je crie, tu ne m'en voudras pas Et si je crie, tu crieras avec moi Un heureux de retour Heureux de cet amour Nous serons là
Mais demain Je pourrai te dire Combien je t'aime Oh oui combien! Enfin, je pourrai te dire "Te voilà!"
Et si je crie, tu ne m'en voudras pas Et si je crie, tu crieras avec moi Un heureux de retour Heureux de cet amour Nous serons là

She hates my mama She hates my daddy too She love to tell me How much she hates the things I do She loves to lie beside me almost every night She's no lady She's my wife

And even though She likes to smell a Frnch perfume And even though She walks around in high-heel shoes All I know Is I'm the one who pays the price She's no lady, she's my wife
She's Never Been Seen Since Then Composer(s): Jack Cottrell Performer(s): George Formby
It's marvellous to me the way some people lead their lives Especially the men who've got what we call naggin' wives And really it's quite simple folks as far as I can see Now married men just use your brains and take a tip from me
Oh, she's never been seen since then She's never been seen since then My old girl, what a proper nark I took her for a walk with me one night around the park We were goin' by the lake and it had only just gone dark And she's never been seen since then No, never been seen since then
Oh, she's never been seen since then She's never been seen since then Her father told her that she was a pest She ran away to London 'cause she thought it would be best She couldn't find a room, so she stayed in a sailor's rest And she's never been seen since then No, never been seen since then
Oh, she's never been seen since then Never been seen since then Someone said, "What a silly ass" She didn't care a bit, she had a face as bold as brass One night she struck a match and put a penny in the gas And she's never been seen since then No, never been seen since then
Oh, she's never been seen since then She's never been seen since then My best pal, boy named Wood Said he'd tame his ma-in-law, but found he never could One night he took her on a bridge and someone heard a thud And she's never been seen since then No, never been seen since then
Oh, she's never been seen since then She's never been seen since then Married one year, had an awful life Asked me how I'd like a woman like her for my wife I said what, and you a butcher with a chopper and a knife And she's never been seen since then No, never been seen since then

Well she's little and she's low, right down on the ground You know she's little and she's low, right down on the ground You know the way she acts makes a rabbit hug a hound
And she's mine, she's mine, she's mine, she's mine She's mine, she's little and low, crippled and she's blind
Everybody's laughin' at me where I go 'Cause I lead my old lady down the road But she's mine, she's mine Well she's mine, she little and low, crippled and she's blind

Well he rocks at the North Pole all year long Hoppin' and a boppin' and a singin' his song All the little elves, they tap their toe When they hear Santa go ho, ho, ho

She's Like The Wind Composer(s): Patrick Swayze; Stacy Widelitz First release by: Patrick Swayze & Wendy Fraser - 1987
She's like the wind through my tree She rides the night next to me She leads me through moonlight Only to burn me with the sun She's taken my heart But she deosn't know what she's done
Feel her breath on my face Her body close to me Can't look in her eyes She's out of my league Just a fool to believe I have anything she needs She's like the wind
I look in the mirror and all I see Is a young old man with only a dream Am I just fooling myself That she'll stop the pain Living without her I'd go insane
Feel her breath on my face Her body close to me Can't look in her eyes She's out of my league Just a fool to believe I have anything she needs She's like the wind
She's Leaving Home Composer(s): John Lennon; Paul McCartney First release by: The Beatles - 1967 Covered by multiple other artists
Wednesday morning at five o'clock as the day begins She's silently closing her bedroom door Just leaving a note that she hoped would say more She goes downstairs to the kitchen Clutching her handkerchief She's quietly turning the backdoor key She's stepping outside, and she is free
She - we gave her most of our lives Is leaving - sacrificed most of our lives - home We gave her everything money could buy For so many years
Father snores as his wife gets into her dressing gown She picks up the note that is lying there She's standing alone at the top of the stairs She breaks down and cries to her husband "Daddy, daddy, our baby, she's gone! How could she treat me so thoughtlessly Tell me, why would she do this thing to me?"
She - we never thought of ourselves Is leaving - never a thought for ourselves - home We struggled hard all of our lives to get by Oh, yes we did Struggled for so many years
It's Friday morning at nine o'clock she is far away She's got away She's waiting to keep an appointment that she's made She's meeting a man from the motor trade
She - what did we do that was wrong Is leaving - we never knew that we did anything wrong - home Fun is the one thing that money cannot buy
Something inside that was always denied for so many years Why should she treat us so thoughtlessly? Why should she do this to me? Our baby's leaving home I've been living alone for so many years Bye-bye, oh bye-bye, goodbye
She's Leavin' (Bonnie, Please Don't Go) Composer(s): Kevin Johnson Performer(s): Jim Ed Brown
She's leavin', she's leavin', she's on the ship now and leavin' Standing by the gateway, tossin' streamers over my way I find it kinda hard believin' Deceivin', deceivin', my subtle game of deceivin' Standing here and waving, blowin' kisses and behavin' Like it doesn't matter much to see her leavin'
I don't know what, I don't know who, I don't know where she's goin' to I only know she's goin' out of my life Across the sea a-wavin' hands and Col'nel Billy's farewell band I watch the disappearin' face of my wife And I'm doin' all I can to hide the sad confusion in my mind And brace myself with every trick I know And though my lips are beating time to the words of Auld Lang Syne My voice keeps on defyin', cryin' Bonnie, please don't go
Oh that fool in me, persuadin' me to hide the broken pieces of my dignity When a simple reassuring word just to reach out and comfort her Was all I had to say to keep her here with me And I don't know what, I don't know where, I don't know who she's goin' to I only know she's goin' out of my life Across the sea a-wavin' hands and Col'nel Billy's farewell band I watch the disappearin' face of my wife She's leavin', she's leavin'

Ev'ry time I see her she don't even look my way Maybe she will notice me but then what would I say? I would say what's on my mind But the words are hard to find But I'm gonna try to tell her anyway

Other guys who meet her may not think she's much to see I can't begin to tell you what she always does to me Maybe it's the clothes she wears Or the way she combs her hair Oh that makes me want to tell her that I care
(Don'tcha know that she's) just my style? (Ev'rything about her) drives me wild (Don'tcha know that she's) just my style? Ev'rything about her) drives me wild (Don'tcha know that she's) fine so fine?
