Staring At The Embers
Composer(s): Tim Finn
Performer(s): Tim Finn



Staring at the embers
Of my memory, trying to remember
Just what you meant to me
Now and then I'm falling
Alligators crawling
Staring at the embers

Sit right down before the fire
My bridges are all burning

A lady told me she was a liar
In love at least I'm learning

Staring at the embers of my
Memory staring at the embers
They're all that's left to me

Don't know where I'm going
There's no way of knowing
Staring at the embers

The flame has gone you put it out
Out without a word of warning
The pleasure palace goes
Up in smoke

But this fool goes on yearning
Staring at the embers
Of my memory
Fire-place surrender
Please give her back to me
Now and then I'm falling
Alligators crawling
Staring at the embers
Staring at the embers of
My memory
Trying to remember just
What you meant to me
Now and then I'm falling
Alligators crawling
Staring at the embers (repeat)

My Impossible Dream
Composer(s): Robert D. Fisher - Bruce Smith
First performance by: Glennis Grace - 2005



I have a dream...
 
You 'n' me, we're driftin' far apart
Our story has been told
Can't you see, the writing's on the wall?
I've come in from the cold
And I will follow my dream
 
I'll fight the big wide world
I'll make it on my own
Against all odds I'm breakin' free
The gauntlet has been thrown
My colours have been shown
Now I seek my impossible dream
 
Now's the time
To hold my head up high
Find my identity
So I will follow my dream
 
I'll fight the big wide world
I'll make it on my own
Against all odds I'm breakin' free
The gauntlet has been thrown
My colours have been shown
Now I seek my impossible dream
 
My dream...
 
I'll fight the big world
I'll make it on my own again
Against all odds I'm breakin' free
The gauntlet has been thrown
My colours have been shown
Now I seek my impossible dream

Hi Jolly
Composer(s): Randy Sparks
Performer(s): The New Christy Minstrels;
and various other artists



Hi Jolly was a camel driver, long time ago
He followed Mr. Beale way out west
Didn't mind the burning sand in that God-forsaken land
But he didn't mind the pretty gals the best

Hi Jolly, hey Jolly, twenty miles a day, by golly
Twenty more before the morning light
Hi Jolly, hey, I gotta get on my way
I told my gal I'd be home Sunday night

There's pretty girls in Albuquerque, 'least that's what I've heard
There's pretty gals in Tumcumcari too
Now honey, I ain't blind, but I don't pay them any mind
'Cause I'm savin' all my lovin' just for you

Hi Jolly, hey Jolly, twenty miles a day, by golly
Twenty more before the morning light
Hi Jolly, hey, I gotta get on my way
I told my gal I'd be home Sunday night

Old timers down in Arizona tell you that it's true
That you can see Hi Jolly's ghost a-ridin' still
When the desert moon is bright, he comes ridin' into sight
Drivin' four and twenty camels over the hill

Hi Jolly, hey Jolly, twenty miles a day, by golly
Twenty more before the mornin' light
Hi Jolly, hey, I gotta get on my way
I told my gal I'd be home Sunday night

Stardust (Estrellitas)
(Dutch Version: Weerklank - 2009)
Composer(s): Hoagy Carmichael
First release by: Hoagy Carmichael - 1927
Covered by multiple other artists



And now the purple dusk of twilight time
Steals across the meadows of my heart
High up in the sky the little stars climb
Always reminding me that we’re apart
You wander down the lane and far away
Leaving me a song that will not die
Love is now the stardust
Of yesterday
The music
Of the years
Gone by

Sometimes I wonder why I spend the lonely nights
Dreaming of a song
The melody haunts my reverie
And I am once again with you
When our love was new
And each kiss, an inspiration

But that was long ago
And now my consolation 
Is in the stardust of a song

Beside a garden wall where stars are bright
You are in my arms
A nightingale sings its fairy tale
Of paradise where roses bloom

Though I dream in vain
In my heart it will remain
That stardust melody
The memory of love's refrain

Hi Ho Silver Lining
Composer(s): Scott English; Larry Weiss
Performer(s): Jeff Beck



You're everywhere and nowhere, baby
that's where you're at
Going down the bumpy hillside in your hippie hat
Flying across the country and getting fat
Saying everything is groovy
when your tires are flat

And it's hi-ho silver lining
anywhere you go now, baby
I see your sun is shining but I will make a fuss
Though it's obvious

Flies are in your pea soup, baby
they're waving at me
Anything you want is yours now
only nothing's for free
Life's a-gonna get you someday
just wait and see
So put up your beach umbrella
while you're watching TV

And it's hi-ho silver lining
anywhere you go, well, baby
I see your sun is shining but I will make a fuss
Though it's obvious

Tout De Moi
First performance by: Lise Darly - 2005



Je donnerais ce que j'ai de plus cher
Je pourrais même faire quelques prières
J'apprendrais à devenir celle que tu voudrais que je devienne
J'irais contre les tempêtes et les vents
Je crierais haut et fort mes sentiments
Pour que nos routes se mélangent, je deviendrais ton ange

Tout de moi
Je dépose à tes pieds mes heures et mes armes
Quand tout déjà
Me rappelle que je ne suis rien sans toi
Oui, tout de moi
Je te donne tous mes rêves, mon cœur et mon âme
Quand tout déjà
Me rappelle que j'n'existe plus sans toi

Dans cette ville où tout parlaient de nous
Reste le souvenir des rendez-vous
J'accrochais des mots pleins d'espoir, en attendant le vent du soir
J'ai des nuits qui ressemblent à des années
J'ai perdu le sommeil à trop rêver
J'ai beau crier contre des murs, mais rien ne me rassure

Tout de moi
Je dépose à tes pieds mes heures et mes armes
Quand tout déjà
Me rappelle que je ne suis rien sans toi

Et si les dieux sont contre nous
Alors je serais marabout
Je chasserais les hivers froids
Comme une reine de cœur défend son roi

Tout de moi
Je dépose à tes pieds mes heures et mes armes
Quand tout déjà
Me rappelle que je ne suis rien sans toi

Night shadows falling
I hear you calling
We're finally talking
Your words touch my soul
 
It's taken a long time
To get inside your mind
I know it's not easy
But baby, we're two of a kind
 
Ooh... little by little
I'm getting close to your heart
When we're together
Looks like we're making a start
 
Little by little
I see that look in your eyes
Each time you touch me
I want to reach out for you
 
No more confusion
It ain't no illusion
This is a fusion
Of body and mind
 
We're meant for each other
So baby, come on, hold me tight
We'll make it together
As we fly into the night
 
Ooh... little by little
I'm getting close to your heart
When we're together
Looks like we're making a start
 
Little by little
I see that look in your eyes
Each time you touch me
I want to reach out for you

Little by little
I'm getting close to your heart
When we're together
Looks like we're making a start
 
Little by little
I see that look in your eyes
Each time you touch me
I want to reach out for you

Hi And Si Of Jaytown 
Performer(s): Steve Porter & Byron G. Harlan



Way last summer, I think it was in May
Ol' Si Hubbard to me did say
"They say there's a circus comin' to town
Suppose you and I go see the clown"

So we sold our barley, our oats and our corn
In fact, we almost cleaned out our barn
And with that money bought us two new suits
High top hats and red top boots

And when that circus came to town
Si and I were the first ones at the ground
Si says to I, "Let's go get tight
Tear down the tents, let's start a fight"

"Not much" says I, "We'll raise no feud"
For I was afraid of the old 'hay rube'
So Si proposed some red lemonade
And some goober peas, for which I paid

'Twas a jolly good cuss who kept that store
We thought when he asked us to have some more
"Oh, I like you boys for straight
Don't stand back, for I'll stand treat"

So Si and I both pitched right in
And how we ate indeed was a sin
But when we turned to go away
We heard that goldarn sharker say

"Four dollars here, you rubes, don't wait
Get off to the sideshow or you'll be late"
So Si and I paid that cash like a darn fool cuss
And off to the sideshow we did rush

The sights we seen within that show
Was enough to turn your whiskers green
Tattooed men all covered with ink
A dog-faced boy called the missing link

Si didn't know that a parrot could talk
'Til he up and called him a country gawk
So Si got mad and flew in a rage
He knocked that goldarn bird clear out of his cage

Hey, you
With the naughty eye
When you pass us by
We just have to cry
"Hey, you! Yoo-hoo!"

When we see your smile
And that sweet profile
We dream all the while
Of you

Hey, you!
'Til we meet again
At the Place Madeleine
On the rue Lorraine
We two

And if you care for me
And be my sweet cherie
Yoo-hoo!
I'd go for you

(Hey, you!)
With the Naughty eye
When you pass us by
We just have to cry
"Hey, you! Yoo-hoo!"

When we see your smile
And that sweet profile
We dream all the while
Of you

(Hey, you!)
'Til we meet again
At the Place Madeleine
On the rue Lorraine
We two

And if you care for me
And be my sweet cherie
Yoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
How I'd go for you!

Love?
Composer(s): Karl Broderick
First performance by: Donna & Joe - 2005



Love can build you up
Love can tear you down
Love can change the world
This is what I've found
 
Love can make you happy
Love can make you cry
Love can be the best
Until it's passed you by
(Love, love, love)
 
Do you wanna, do you wanna
Do you wanna fall in love?
Do you need it? Can you feel it?
Do you think you're strong enough?
 
Can you take the highs?
Can you take the lows?
Can you handle everything love throws?
 
Love can build you up
Love can tear you down
Love can change the world
This is what I've found
 
Love can make you happy
Love can make you cry
Love can be the best
Until it's passed you by
(Love, love, love)
 
If you want it, come and get it
Even though you know the score
I will love you, I will hate you
Then I'll love you even more
 
Can you handle love?
Can you handle pain?
Can you handle everything I'm sayin'?
 
Love can build you up
Love can tear you down
Love can change the world
This is what I've found
 
Love can make you happy
Love can make you cry
Love can be the best
Until it's passed you by
(Love, love, love)
 
Love will capture you whole
With your body and soul
Love is taking control of your senses
 
Love is guilty as tried
Love has no alibi
Love is breaking down all your defences
Love
 
Love can make you sorry
Love can make you weep
Love can take you over
Even when you sleep
 
Love can give you heaven
Love can make you high
Love can make you cheat
And love can make you lie
 
Love can build you up
Love can tear you down
Love can change the world
This is what I've found
 
Love can make you happy
Love can make you cry
Love can be the best
Until it's passed you by

Oh western union man
Send a telegram to my baby 
Send a telegram, send a telegram 
Who, send a telegram to my baby

And if the telegram don't do 
Send a box of candy too

Tell her that I missed her for hours and hours
Send a telegram, send a telegram

I feel her love
Embrace my soul
She fills my heart
She makes me whole

I touch her fingertips
I feel her love
I fall into her eyes
I need her love

She never ceases to amaze me
When she says the things
I've never heard before
And love I've never known
'cause my mind was truly blown, over her

Love, love, all I need is you
Love, love, I never shall be blue

She never ceases to amaze me
When she says the things
I've never heard before
And love I've never known
'cause my mind was truly blown, over her

Love, love, all I need is you
Love, love, I never shall be blue
Love, love, all I need is you
Love, love, I never shall be blue

Hey, That's No Way To Say Goodbye
Composer(s): Leonard Cohen
Performer(s): Leonard Cohen;
and various other artists



I loved you in the morning, our kisses deep and warm
your hair upon the pillow like a sleepy golden storm
yes, many loved before us, I know that we are not new
in city and in forest they smiled like me and you
but now it's come to distances and both of us must try
your eyes are soft with sorrow
Hey, that's no way to say goodbye

I'm not looking for another as I wander in my time
walk me to the corner, our steps will always rhyme
you know my love goes with you as your love stays with me
it's just the way it changes, like the shoreline and the sea
but let's not talk of love or chains and things we can't untie
your eyes are soft with sorrow
Hey, that's no way to say goodbye

I loved you in the morning, our kisses deep and warm
your hair upon the pillow like a sleepy golden storm
yes many loved before us, I know that we are not new
in city and in forest they smiled like me and you
but let's not talk of love or chains and things we can't untie
your eyes are soft with sorrow
Hey, that's no way to say goodbye

Star Of Hope

Performer(s): Billy Cotton



Star of hope, star of love
Shine down from afar
You’re the one guiding light
No matter where we are
through the valley of tears
Through the long, dreary years
You’re the star up there, star of hope
From heaven above
Let each beam guide our dream
Leading to hope and love.

Through the valley of tears
Through the long weary years
You’re the star up there, star of hope
From heaven above
