Let Me Love You Composer(s): Rade Vrcakovski First performance by: Tamara, Vrcak & Adrijan - 2008
Let's go
Let's go, let's go, let's go What ya gonna do if I let you know You're the only one I've been dreaming for I've never felt love like this before
Let's go, let's go, let's go Where the moon is full and the lights are low We can do it so slow, kiss in slo-mo Until dawn breaks, then I ride out solo
You always knew how to make me cry I feel so helpless without you I'm starting to lose my mind I wanna be with you tonight
The stars above glow like they're making love I'm running under the moonlight Alone in the sleepless night Just to be right by your side
Let me love you, just let me love you Unfold your angel wings Fly out from my wildest dreams Let me love you, just let me love you Kiss me and let me die Before you tell me goodbye
Let's go, let's go, let's go What ya gonna do if I let you know You're the only one I've been dreaming for I've never felt love like this before
Let's go, let's go, let's go Where the moon is full and the lights are low We can do it so slow, kiss in slo-mo Until dawn breaks, then I ride out solo
You always knew how to make me cry Who needs a smile when my tears Are so full of love inside And they are stronger than my pride
Let me love you, just let me love you Unfold your angel wings Fly out for my wildest dreams Let me love you, just let me love you Kiss me and let me die Before you tell me goodbye
Let me love you, just let me love you Kiss me and let me die Before you tell me goodbye

Nomads In The Night Composer(s): Vytautas Dikevicius - Jeronimas Milius First performance by: Jeronimas Milius - 2008
Through passing days, I close my eyes and feel silk burning me Your skin, those gorgeous lips I've kissed so long ago Tonight I'll try to rip out this aching heart, it's filled with you It's filled with lonely pain obey
Moon, I follow you in darkness It seems we're nomads in the night Your cold turns me into the heartless Until the sunrise burning light brings down her sky blue shining eyes
This hollow day, like days before I walk through thousand smiles And try to find the look that heals all wounds inside But still I'm here at the world's edge falling like stone to you Shining so high, alone like me
Moon, I follow you in darkness It seems we're nomads in the night Your cold turns me into the heartless Until the sunrise burning light
Seems we're nomads in the night Your cold turns me into the heartless Until the sunrise burning light brings down her sky blue shining eyes
Honey Boy Composer(s): Brian Holland; Lamont Dozier; Eddie Holland Performer(s): Mary Wells; The Supremes
Chorus (x2): He's my Honey Boy, my ever-lovin' Honey Boy Mmm hmm hmm mmm, mmm hmm hmm mmm
Sweet kisses are his claim to fame In my heart he'll always remain True fine lovin' is his game Honey Boy is his name He's sugar, he's spice, he's everything that's nice
(chorus)
I'd never have another love this time Than all the gold in the Fort Knox mine My whole life he'll inspire Loving him is my desire Always near when I need him most That's why I just love to boast
(chorus)
If you see me in my prettiest dress Then for him I look my best Nobody can take his love from me Because he has lasting loyalty He's sugar, he's spice, he's everything that's nice

Stilla och tyst som nu vid blånande hav stilla och tyst som nu din kärlek du gav mej Kärlekens röda ros svindlande skön dej fann jag svalka hos där ute på ön

See the tree, how big it´s grown, but friend, then it hasn´t been too long, it wasn´t big
I laughed at her and she got mad, the first day that she planted it was just a twig
Then the first snow came and she ran out to brush the snow away, so it wouldn´t die
Came runnin´ in all excited, slipped and almost hurt herself, I laughed 'till I cried
She was always young at heart, kinda dumb and kinda smart and I loved her so
I surprised her with a puppy, kept me up all Christmas Eve, two years ago
And it would sure embarrass her when I came home from working late ´cause I would know
That she´d been sittin´ there and cryin´ over some sad and silly late, late show
And honey, I miss you and I´m bein´ good
And I´d love to be with you, if only I could
She wrecked the car and she was sad, and so afraid that I´d be mad, but what the heck
Though I pretended hard to be, guess you could say she saw through me and hugged my neck
I came home unexpectedly and found her crying needlessly in the middle of a day
And it was in the early Spring, when flowers bloom and Robins sing, she went away
And honey, I miss you and I´m bein´ good
And I´d love to be with you, if only I could
Yes, one day, while I wasn't home, while she was there and all alone, the angels came
Now all I have is memories of Honey, and I wake up nights and call her name
Now my life´s an empty stage, where Honey lived, and Honey played, and love grew up
A small cloud passes overhead and cries down in the flower bed that Honey loved
And see the tree, how big it´s grown
But friend, it hasn´t been too long, it wasn´t big
I laughed at her and she got mad, the first day that she planted it was just a twig ...

Walk with me Take my hand Still water Still water (Walk with me, take my hand) Whoa, whoa, whoa now Still waters run deep Hey, hey, hey, hey Whoa, whoa, whoa now Still waters run deep ...
Honesty Composer(s): Billy Joel Performer(s): Billy Joel
If you search for tenderness it isn't hard to find You can have the love you need to live But if you look for truthfulness You might just as well be blind It always seems to be so hard to give
Honesty is such a lonely word Everyone is so untrue Honesty is hardly ever heard And mostly what I need from you
I can always find someone to say they sympathize If I wear my heart out on my sleeve But I don't want some pretty face to tell me party lies All I want is someone to believe
Honesty is such a lonely word Everyone is so untrue Honesty is hardly ever heard And mostly what I need from you
I can find a lover I can find a friend I can have security until the bitter end Anyone can comfort me with promises again I know, I know
When I'm deep inside of me don't be too concerned I won't as for nothin' while I'm gone But when I want sincerity tell me where else can I turn Because you're the one I depend upon
Honesty is such a lonely word Everyone is so untrue Honesty is hardly ever heard And mostly what I need from you
Have Some Fun Composer(s): Stano imor - Gordon Pogoda First performance by: Tereza Kerndlová - 2008
(We're gathered here today)
Sometimes we open a door to hope Then baby we're hopin' the door won't close We look all around, our future is standing there Can't you see you're my future?
We really get along Just like the sun goes with the sunshine Like a grape goes with a grapevine But you think in a blink that I'll be bad to you
If you wanna have some fun, don't run Don't walk away when I'm your summer sun If you wanna know real love and have some fun Hmm... then baby don't run
I know your history makes you shy Oh baby, it's no mystery why you fly I'm not like the girls, the girls who just come and go And with me you won't go solo
We really get along Just like the stars go with the starshine Like a ring goes with a bell chime But you say I won't stay, you think I'll pull away
If you wanna have some fun, don't run Don't turn away from me when I am the one I'm the one who shakes your clouds away Whenever rainy days make you insane
If you wanna have some fun, don't run Don't walk away when I'm your summer sun If you wanna know real love and have some fun Hmm... then baby don't run
I'll even walk you to the moon Walk down the beach all afternoon I just wanna be your friend for fun, fun, fun
If you wanna have some fun, don't run Don't walk away when I'm your summer sun I'm the one who shakes your clouds away Whenever rainy days make you insane
If you wanna have some fun, don't run Don't walk away when I'm your summer sun If you wanna know real love and have some fun Hmm....then baby don't run
Honest Lullaby Composer(s): Joan Baez Performer(s): Joan Baez
Early early in the game I taught myself to sing and play And use a little trickery On kids who never favored me Those were years of crinoline slips And cotton skirts and swinging hips And dangerously painted lips And stars of stage and screen Pedal pushers, ankle socks Padded bras and campus jocks Who hid their vernal equinox In pairs of faded jeans And slept at home resentfully Coveting their dreams
And often have I wondered How the years and I survived I had a mother who sang to me An honest lullaby
Yellow, brown, and black and white Our Father bless us all tonight I bowed my head at the football games And closed the prayer in Jesus' name Lusting after football heroes tough Pachuco, little Neroes Forfeiting my A's for zeroes Futures unforeseen Spending all my energy In keeping my virginity And living in a fantasy In love with Jimmy Dean If you will be my king, Jimmy, Jimmy I will be your queen
And often have I wondered How the years and I survived I had a mother who sang to me An honest lullaby
I travelled all around the world And knew more than the other girls Of foreign languages and schools Paris, Rome and Istanbul But those things never worked for me The town was much too small you see And people have a way of being Even smaller yet But all the same though life is hard And no one promised me a garden Of roses, so I did okay I took what I could get And did the things that I might do For those less fortunate
And often have I wondered How the years and I survived I had a mother who sang to me An honest lullaby
Now look at you, you must be growing A quarter of an inch a day You've already lived near half the years You'll be when you go away With your teddy bears and alligators Enterprise communicators All the tiny aviators head into the sky And while the others play with you I hope to find a way with you And sometimes spend a day with you I'll catch you as you fly Or if I'm worth a mother's salt I'll wave as you go by
And if you should ever wonder How the years and you'll survive Honey, you've got a mother who sings to you Dances on the strings for you Opens her heart and brings to you An honest lullaby
Still The Same (French Version: Toujours Le Même - 1981) Composer(s): Bob Seger First release by: Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band - 1978
You always won, everytime you placed a bet You're still damn good, no one's gotten to you yet Everytime they were sure they had you caught You were quicker than they thought You'd just turn your back and walk You always said, the cards would never do you wrong The trick you said was never piay the game too long A gambler's share, the only risk that you would take The only loss you could forsake The only bluff you couldn't fake
And you're still the same I caught up with you yesterday Moving game to game No one standing in your way Turning on the charm Long enough to get you by You're still the same You still aim high
There you stood, everybody watched you play I just turned and walked away I had nothing left to say
'Cause you're still the same You're still the same Moving game to game Some thlngs never change You're still the same
Homme Tout Petit Composer(s): Jean-Michel Rivat; Frank Thomas Performer(s): France Gall
Je suis la femme de Pablo de Rossignol Celui qui chante sur ton balcon Qui va qui vient qui vole Dans ta maison il faisait bon je suis venue Si je t'ai aimé 20 minutes n'en demande pas plus Ne me retiens pas ici
Homme tout petit ton cur je l'ai pris Pourtant j'aime mieux siffler sur les cerisiers Et homme tout petit un air de violon Chante mes quatre saisons et voilà ma vie
Je suis la femme de Pablo de Rossignol Et toi tu as quatre maisons un âne une carriole Tu voudrais m'enfermer et me garder pour toi À courir après les richesses as-tu beaucoup de joie Que fais-tu donc de la vie
Homme tout petit ton cur je l'ai pris Pourtant j'aime mieux siffler sur les cerisiers Et homme tout petit un air de violon Chante mes quatre saisons et voilà ma vie
Homme tout petit ton cur je l'ai pris Pourtant j'aime mieux siffler sur les cerisiers Et homme tout petit un air de violon Chante mes quatre saisons et voilà ma vie
Je voudrais rendre hommage à ceux qui m'ont fait vivre En rallumant l'espoir un jour à l'horizon Leur dédier à chacun mon âme comme un livre Et leur offrir à tous un vers à ma façon Celui qui m'a ouvert le plus grand de ses vins Pour y noyer ma peine Celui qui m'a cité les philosophes indiens Dont l'âme était sereine
Celui qui sans jamais prononcer le mot Dieu M'a fait croire en les hommes Les deux qui m'ont appris à vivre plus heureux Par l'amour que l'on donne
Celle qui m'a dit un jour que son amour pour moi Serait toujours le même Toi qui redessinais les lignes de ma main Pour y glisser la tienne
Celui qui m'enseignait dans ma propre musique A trouver l'harmonie Celle qui m'a porté par delà ses blessures
Au sommet de ma vie Celui qui m'a fait croire aux plus fous de mes rêves En y rêvant aussi Ont éclairé ma route en apaisant mes doutes Et m'ont rendu la vie
Et si j'ai pu franchir les murs de mon silence C'est grâce à tous les gens qui m'ont ouvert le cur Et fait la courte échelle au sortir de l'enfance Pour m'aider à grandir en force et en bonheur
Et c'est en remontant les douloureux méandres En revoyant parfois le chemin parcouru Que j'ai pu mesurer ce qu'il reste à apprendre Effacer les tristesses et tout le temps perdu
Je voulais rendre hommage à ceux qui m'ont fait vivre En rallumant l'espoir un jour dans ma maison Leur dédier à chacun mon âme comme un livre Et leur offrir à tous un vers à ma façon
