    Composer(s): J. Marascalco

    Starlight, starbright
    (Doo doo wop, doo doo wop)
    Shine down on me
    (Doo doo wop, doo doo wop)
    Bring back my baby
    (Doo doo wop, doo doo wop)
    Back home to me
    (Doo doo wop)

    First star I see
    (Doo doo wop, doo doo wop)
    In the heavens tonight
    (Doo doo wop, doo doo wop)
    Bring back my baby
    (Doo doo wop, doo doo wop)
    To hold me tight
    (Doo doo wop)

    I know this waiting, it never ends
    Down on his knees
    But I'll keep waiting until the day
    You come back to me

    Starlight, starbright
    (Doo doo wop, doo doo wop)
    Please hear my plea
    (Doo doo wop, doo doo wop)
    Bring back my baby
    (Doo doo wop, doo doo wop)
    Back home to me
    (Doo doo wop)

    (Doo doo wop, doo doo wop)
    (Doo doo wop, doo doo wop)

    (Bring back my baby
    Back home to me)

    I know this waiting, it never ends
    Down on his knees
    But I'll keep waiting until the day
    You come back to me

    Starlight, starbright
    (Doo doo wop, doo doo wop)
    Please hear my plea
    (Doo doo wop, doo doo wop)
    Bring back my baby
    (Doo doo wop, doo doo wop)
    Back home to me
    (Doo doo wop, doo doo wop)

    Bring back my baby
    (Doo doo wop, doo doo wop)
    Back home to me

    Hi-De-Ho
    Composer(s): Gerry Goffin; Carole King
    Performer(s): Blood, Sweat & Tears;
    and various other artists



    Hi de Ho, Hi de Hi
    Gonna get me a piece of the sky
    Gonna get me some of that
    Old sweet roll, singin'
    Hi de hi de, hi de hi de, ho...

    I've been down so low
    Bottom looked like up
    Once I thought that seconds saves
    Was enough to fill my cup

    So I proffered all I got
    But it ain't no way to live
    Being taken by the ones who got
    The least amount to give

    Hi de Ho, Hi de Hi
    Gonna get me a piece of the sky
    Gonna get me some of that
    Old sweet roll, singin'
    Hi de hi de, hi de hi de, ho...

    Once I met the Devil
    He was mighty slick
    Tempted me with worldly goods
    Said; you can have your pick

    But when he laid that paper on me
    And he showed me where to sign
    I said thank you very kindly
    But I'm in too great a need of mine

    Hi de Ho, Hi de Hi
    Gonna get me a piece of the sky
    Gonna get me some of that
    Old sweet roll, singin'
    Hi de hi de, hi de hi de, ho...

    Hi de Ho, Hi de Hi
    Gonna get me a piece of the sky
    Gonna get me some of that
    Old sweet roll, singin'
    Hi de hi de, hi de hi de, ho...

    Hi de Ho, Hi de Hi
    Gonna get me a piece of the sky
    Gonna get me some of that
    Old sweet roll, singin'...

    Hi de hi de, hi de hi de, ho...

    If We All Give A Little
    Composer(s): Ralph Siegel - Bernd Meinunger
    First performance by: Six4One - 2006



    Everybody has a dream
    What will come and what will be
    And hopes it soon will be reality

    But a dream is not enough
    There's so much we gotta do
    To overcome that bitter blue

    'Cause we all know one hand alone
    Can never move a rock of stone
    It takes us all, me and you

    If we all give a little
    If we all give a little
    We can make this world a home for everyone
    If we all give a little
    We can dry a million tears
    And some hope will grow out of many fears

    Everybody has some strength
    They could spend on someone weak
    Don't let life be a game of hide and seek

    Everyone has things to give
    To someone just to carry on
    A little help to overcome

    We all have learned a word alone
    Will never touch a heart of stone
    It takes much more, more of us

    If we all give a little
    If we all give a little
    We can make this world a home for everyone
    If we all give a little (If we all)
    We can dry a million tears (Give a little)
    And some hope will grow out of many fears

    If we give a little love
    Just believe it's really worth
    Many million hearts are beating on this earth

    If we all give a little
    If we all give a little
    We can make this world a home for everyone
    (For everyone)
    If we all give a little
    We can dry a million tears

    And some hope will grow (It will grow forever)
    Out of many fears (If we stand together)
    If we give a little, just a little
    (If we give a little love)
    Give a little love

    If we all give a little
    (Just a little love)
    All give a little
    (A little) love

    Hideaway
    Composer(s): Steve Harley
    Performer(s): Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel



    Let them come a-running, take all your money and hideaway
    Let them come a-running, take all your money and flee
    Let them come a-running, take all your money and hideaway, hideaway

    It was summer or maybe spring, I can't remember
    It was summer or maybe spring, I can't recall
    We found our hearts and stole them from our bodies
    (We couldn't understand the Villain's call)
    We'd often recall the beginnings
    We'd often try in vain to change it all
    We couldn't help but keep ourselves from sinning
    In summer, in summer or maybe spring, or maybe spring, or maybe spring

    Let them come a-running, take all your money and hideaway
    Let them come a-running, take all your money and flee
    Let them come a-running, take all your money and hideaway, hideaway

    It was summer or maybe spring, I can't remember
    It was summer or maybe spring, I can't recall
    We'd try to always calm our elders
    (But always we did seems to fall)
    We'd never try to tame the burning embers
    (It didn't seem to matter how we'd fare)
    It seemed we couldn't ever escape December
    But it was summer, summer, or maybe spring, or maybe spring, maybe spring

    Let them come a-running, take all your money and hideaway
    Let them come a-running, take all your money and flee
    Let them come a-running, take all your money and hideaway, hideaway

    Starlight and music it's time for love
    Your heart and my heart in rhythm with love

    Darling tonight is the night for dreams to come true

    Starlight and music it's heavenly
    Holding you near me so heavenly
    You are the music the starlight above

    Hide Your Heart
    Composer(s): Desmond Child; Paul Stanley; Holly Knight
    Performer(s): Ace Frehley;
    and various other artists



    Johnny saw her ridin' on a streetcar named "desire"
    His fate was sealed
    She could see him comin' like a hundred other liars
    It was no big deal
    Rosa had a lover on the shady side of town
    Tito, he was king of the streets
    She was his possession like a jewel on his crown
    Johnny better run, better run?
    Better hide your heart
    Better hold on tight
    Better say your prayers
    Cause there's trouble tonight
    When pride and love battle with desire
    Better hide your heart
    Cause you're playing with fire
    The ride was over but the story doesn't end
    He took her heart
    She looked him in the eye
    And said they couldn't meet again
    You could see the trouble start
    The word went out that Rosa's missing with someone
    It was on the street
    Tito looked for Johnny with a vengeance and a gun
    Johnny better run, better run?
    Johnny's holding Rosa on a rooftop in the night
    As time stood still
    They couldn't hear him coming
    Till he had them both in sight
    You could feel the chill
    A shot rang out like thunder
    And the blood was on her hands
    With nothing won
    When someone lies there dying
    Lovers finally understand

    Quand Tout S'enfuit
    First performance by: Aline Lahoud - 2005



    Quand tout s'enfuit
    Quand tout bascule dans l'oubli
    Quand il n'y a rien
    Qu'un froid soleil au déclin
    Quand l'hiver noie ses pleures
    Dans mes nuits qui se meurent

    Toi seul, tu es là
    A gravé dans mon coeur ton image
    Comme dans un bouquin
    Qui n'a dans ces pages qu'une page
    Et je sais pourtant qu'un de ces jours
    Quand on n'aura jamais le temps pour notre amour

    Quand tout s'en va
    Il y aura toi, y aura moi
    Il y aura des jours, des tous jours pour t'aimer
    Oh, mon amour

    Et moi, je suis là, tout près de toi
    De tout ce qui te ressemble
    Mais moi, je serai là pour finir ensemble ce long voyage
    Et t'aimer, et t'aimer d'avantage
    À tout jamais, à tout jamais

    Et je sais pourtant qu'un de ces jours
    Quand on n'aura jamais le temps pour notre amour

    Hide In Your Shell
    Composer(s): Rick Davies; Roger Hodges
    Performer(s): Supertramp



    Hide in your shell cos the world is out to bleed you for a ride
    What will you gain making your life a little longer?
    Heaven or hell, was the journey cold that gave your eyes of steel?
    Shelter behind painting your mind and playing joker

    Too frightening to listen to a stranger
    Too beautiful to put your pride in danger
    You’re waiting for someone to understand you
    But you’ve got demons in your closet
    And you’re screaming out to stop it
    Saying life’s begun to cheat you
    Friends are out to beat you
    Grab on to what you scramble for

    Don’t let the tears linger on inside now
    Cos it’s sure time you gained control
    If I can help you, if I can help you
    If I can help you, just let me know
    Well, let me show you the nearest signpost
    To get your heartback and on the road
    If I can help you, if I can help you
    If I can help you, just let me know

    All through the night as you like awake and hold yourself so tight
    What do you need, a second-hand-movie-star to tend you?
    I as a boy, I believed the saying the cure for pain was love
    How would it be if you could see the world through my eyes?

    Too frightening- the fire’s getting colder
    Too beautiful- to think you’re getting older
    You’re looking for someone to give an answer
    But what you see is just an illusio
    You’re surrounded by confusion
    Saying life’s begun to cheat you
    Friends are out to beat you
    Grab on to what you can scramble for
    Don’t let teh tears...
    ... just let me know
    I wanna know...
    I wanna know you...
    Well let me know you
    I wanna feel you
    I wanna touch you
    Please let me near you
    Can you hear what I’m saying?
    Well I’m hoping, I’m dreamin’, I’m prayin’
    I know what you’re thinkin’
    See what you’re seein’
    Never ever let yourself go

    Hold yourself down, hold yourself down
    Why d’ya hold yourself down?
    Why don’t you listen, you can
    Trust me
    There’s a place I know the way to
    A place there is need to feel you
    Feel that you’re alone
    Hear me
    I know exactly what you’re feelin’
    Cos all your troubles are whithin you
    Please begin to see that I’m just bleeding to
    Love me, love you
    Loving is the way to
    Help me, help you
    - why must we be so cool, oh so cool?
    Oh, we’re such damn fools...

    Gold through my eyes
    But my eyes turned within
    Only see
    Starless and bible black

    Ice blue silver sky
    Fades into grey
    To a grey hope that oh years to be
    Starless and bible black

    Old friend charity
    Cruel twisted smile
    And the smile signals emptiness
    For me
    Starless and bible black

    Night time come and lay and hide and seek

    *Walk in the streets
    A call your name
    And no one comes
    Running through the town
    I call your name
    I know no one here

    Shadows forming where the night begins
    (Just the breeze comes in)
    Doors all closed and window curtains drawn
    (All the people are gone)
    (* Repeat)

    Doors all closed and window curtains drown
    (All the people are gone)
    Streets deserted and I am here alone

    Starkville City Jail
    Composer(s): Johnny Cash
    First recording/First release by: Johnny Cash - 1969



    Well, I left my motel room, down at the Starkville Motel
    The town had gone to sleep and I was feelin' fairly well
    I strolled along the sidewalk 'neath the sweet magnolia trees

    I was whistlin', pickin' flowers, swayin' in the southern breeze
    I found myself surrounded; one policeman said: "That's him
    Come along, wild flower child
    Don't you know that it's two a.m."

    They're bound to get you
    'Cause they got a curfew
    And you go to the Starkville City jail

    Well, they threw me in the car and started driving into town
    I said: "What the hell did I do?" He said: "Shut up and sit down"

    Well, they emptied out my pockets, took my pills and guitar picks
    I said: "Wait, my name is..." "Awe shut up"
    Well, I sure was in a fix

    The sergeant put me in a cell, then he went home for the night
    I said: "Come back here, you so and so; I ain't bein' treated right"

    Well, they're bound to get you, cause they got a curfew
    And you go to the Starkville City Jail

    I started pacin' back and forth, and now and then I'd yell
    And kick my forty dollar shoes against the steel floor of my cell
    I'd walk awhile and kick awhile, and all night nobody came

    Then I sadly remembered that they didn't even take my name
    At 8 a.m. they let me out
    I said: "Gimme them things of mine!"
    They gave me a sneer and a guitar pick, and a yellow dandelion

    They're bound to get you, 'cause they got a curfew
    And you go to the Starkville City Jail

    Performer(s): Traffic



    Take a walk down by, take a walk down by the river
    There's a lot that you, there's a lot that you can learn
    If you've got a mind that's open, if you've got a heart that yearns

    If you listen to, if you listen to the water
    You will hear the sound, you will hear the sound of life
    There's a million different voices, there is happiness and strife

    Message in the deep, from a strange eternal sleep
    That is waiting there, that is waiting there for you
    Like hidden treasure

    Procura outro lugar
    Onde o sol não cabe
    E a lua não quer ficar
    De mar em mar, hey!
    Ver e vencer, hey
    Amar, amar, sempre, sempre anyway
    De mar em mar, hey!
    Ver e vencer, hey
    Amar, amar, always day by day
    Só quem não quer amar
    Olha sem ver

    Happy pretty way
    Happy shiny day
    Happy place to stay
    We can hold it together
    Happy pretty way
    Happy shiny day
    Happy place to stay
    We can hold it forever

    Pretty people shining
    A pretty place to stay
    Brand new kind of face
    I love you anyway

    Fight for the love I miss
    Ask me to stay

    Happy pretty way
    Happy shiny day
    Happy place to stay
    We can hold it together
    Happy pretty way
    Happy shiny day
    Happy place to stay
    We can hold it forever

    Happy pretty way
    Bright shiny day
    Lovely place to stay
    We can hold it together
    Happy pretty way
    Happy shiny day
    Happy place to stay
    We can hold it forever

    De mar em mar
    Ver e vencer
    Amar, amar

    Happy pretty way
    Happy shiny day
    Happy place to stay
    We can hold it together
    Happy pretty way
    Happy shiny day
    Happy place to stay
    We can hold it forever

    Pretty way, happy, happy shiny day
    A brand new day, happy, happy place to stay
    Pretty way, happy, happy shinny day
    A brand new day, happy, happy place to stay

    Hickory Wind
    Composer(s): Gram Parsons; Bob Buchanon
    Performer(s): The Byrds;
    and various other artists



    In South Carolina there are many tall pines
    I remember the oak tree that we used to climb
    But now when I'm lonesome, I always pretend
    That I'm getting the feel of hickory wind

    I started out younger at most everything
    All the riches and pleasures, what else could life bring?
    But it makes me feel better each time it begins
    Callin' me home, hickory wind

    It's hard to find out that trouble is real
    In a far away city, with a far away feel
    But it makes me feel better each time it begins
    Callin' me home, hickory wind

    Keeps callin' me home, hickory wind

    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
