A Teenager In Love Composer(s): Doc Pomus - Mort Shuman First release by: Dion & the Belmonts - 1959 Covered by multiple other artists
Each time we have a quarrel, it almost breaks my heart Cause I am so afraid that we will have to part Each night I ask the stars up above Why must I be a teenager in love?
One day I feel so happy, next day I feel so sad I guess I'll learn to take the good with the bad Each night I ask the stars up above Why must I be a teenager in love?
I cried a tear for nobody but you I'll be a lonely one if you should say we're through.
Well if you want to make me cry, that won't be so hard to do If you should say goodbye, I'll still go on loving you Each night I ask the stars up above Why must I be a teenager in love?

Teenage Idol ((French Version: L'Idole Des Jeunes) (by Johnny Hallyday) - 1962)) Composer(s): Jack Lewis First release by: Rick Nelson - 1962 Covered by multiple other artists
Some people call me a teenage idol Some people say they envy me I guess they got no way of knowing How lonesome I can be
I need somebody to be my baby Someone to tell my troubles to I've got no time to ever find her Cause I'm just passing through
I travel around from town to lonely town I guess I'll always be just a rolling stone If I find fortune and fame and lots of people know my name That won't mean a thing if I'm all alone
I get no rest when I'm feeling weary I got to pack my bags and go I got to be somewhere tomorrow To smile and do my show
I travel around from town to lonely town I guess I'll always be just a rolling stone If I find fortune and fame and lots of people know my name That won't mean a thing if I'm all alone
Some people call me a teenage idol Some people say they envy me I guess they got no way of knowing How lonesome I can be How lonesome I can be
Woke up this morning, up this morning With my head bowed down, hey, hey, hey Woke up this morning with my head bowed down I had that mean old feeling, I was in the wrong man's town
Mailman's been here, mailman's been here But didn't leave no news, hey, hey, hey Mailman's been here but didn't leave no news That's the reason why mama's got the walking blues
Walked and walked till I, walked and walked I almost lost my mind, hey, hey, hey Walked and walked till I almost lost my mind I was afraid to stop walking 'cause I might lose some time
Got a short time to make it, short time to make it And a long ways to go, Lord, Lord, Lord Short time to make it and a long way to go Trying to find the town they call San Antonio
Thought I'd rest me, thought I'd rest me I couldn't hear no news, Lord, Lord, Lord Thought I'd rest me, I couldn't hear no news I'll soon be there 'cause I got the walking blues
L'idole Des Jeunes ((Adapted from: Teenage Idol (by Rick Nelson) - 1962)) Composer(s): Jack Lewis - Ralph Bernet Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday - 1962
Les gens m'appellent l'idole des jeunes Il en est même qui m'envient Mais ils ne savent pas dans la vie Que parfois je m'ennuie
Je cherche celle qui serait mienne Mais comment faire pour la trouver Le temps s'en va, le temps m'entraîne Je ne fais que passer
Dans la nuit je file tout seul de ville en ville Je ne suis qu'une pierre qui roule toujours J'ai bien la fortune et plus et mon nom partout dans la rue Pourtant je cherche tout simplement l'Amour
Plus d'une fille souvent me guettent Quand s'éteignent les projecteurs Soudain sur moi elles se jettent Mais pas une dans mon cur
Dans la nuit je file tout seul de ville en ville Je ne suis qu' une pierre qui roule toujours Il me faut rire et danser et le spectacle terminé S'en aller ailleurs au lever du jour
Les gens m'appellent l'idole des jeunes Il en est même qui m'envient Mais s'ils pouvaient savoir dans la vie Combien tout seul je suis Combien tout seul je suis
Walkin' After Midnight Composer(s): Don Hecht; Alan Block Performer(s): Patsy Cline
I go out walking after midnight Out in the moonlight just like we used to do I'm always walking after midnight searching for you I walk for miles along the highway Well that's just my way of saying I love you I'm always walking after midnight searching for you I stopped to see a weeping willow Crying on his pillow maybe he's crying for me And as the skies turn gloomy Night blooms will whisper to me I'm lonesome as I can be I go out walking after midnight out in the moonlight Just hoping maybe you're somewhere walking after midnight searching for me I stopped to see a weeping willow Crying on his pillow maybe he's crying for me And as the skies turn gloomy Night blooms will whisper to me I'm lonesome as I can be I'm out walking after midnight out in the moonlight Just hoping maybe you're somewhere walking after midnight searching for me
A Tear, A Kiss, A Smile Composer(s): L. Wolfe Gilbert - Paul Insetta Performer(s): Jerry Vale; Percy Faith; Josef Locke
A tear, a kiss, a smile, these things make life worthwhile A kiss to dry a tear dimmed eye and then the smile returns again So if I've been unkind, if you look you're sure to find In all true love the story of a tear, a kiss, and a smile
So if I've been unkind, if you look you're sure to find In all true love the story of a tear, a kiss, and a smile
Walkin' Composer(s): Lindsey Steele; Mary Lou Williams Performer(s): Nat King Cole
Im walking out the door with you on my mind Im walking out the door with you on my mind But every step away from you, I feel like crying
I walked into the street, talking to myself I walked into the street, talking to myself No matter what my conscience says Im thinking bout nobody else
I met a brand new chick, phoned to make a date I met a brand new chick, phoned to make a date But when I rang her number, I got your number by mistake You say you love me baby, dont know what to do You say you love me baby, dont know what to do Im sure of one thing, Im in love with you
A Tear From A Woman's Eyes Composer(s): Lamont Dozier - Brian Holland - Eddie Holland Performer(s): The Temptations
I saw the saddest thing, the other day When an old man passed my way Walking the streets so all alone All because he had no home
But the saddest thing I've ever seen Is a tear from a woman's eye A tear from a woman's eye Hmmm
I saw a man, no shoes on his feet But the saddest thing is to see a woman weep A woman is a tender thing To see her cry, a sad, sad thing
Nothing touches me deeper inside Than a tear from a woman's eye A tear from a woman's eye Hmmm
A woman's tears dropping on her cheek Is like a sound of thunder, that loudly rings 'Cause when I see her cry, I know she hurts inside
Yes, the saddest thing I've ever seen Is a tear from a woman's eye A tear from a woman's eye Hmmm
Sad, sad thing is a tear from a woman's eye A sad, sad thing is to see a woman cry Sad, sad, sad thing is a tear from a woman's eye Sad, sad, sad thing is to see a woman cry
Walkin' With A Mountain Composer(s): Ian Hunter Performer(s): Mott The Hoople
A mountain train's coming down the tracks She ain't wasting time She's following me, 'cos I'm going back, right to the end of the line She know's I ain't been anywhere Because I'll come back everytime to her
Walking with a mountain Walking with a mountain
The troubles and tears, I take 'em in years - I left so many behind Maybe it's strange to rearrange - who know's what I'll find But anything's better than the life I've known I can't face anything that low
Walking with a mountain Walking with a mountain
Walking with a mountain Walking with a mountain
Now when she talks to me, I can see just where I'm headed to She sits, drinks, takes it all in, just to admire the view But if I had my choice in life I'd take that woman for my wife
Walking with a mountain Walking with a mountain
(Repeat Chorus several times)
Jumping jack flash, it's a gas Jumping jack flash, it's a gas
A Tear Fell Composer(s): Dorian Burton - Eugene Randolph Performer(s): Teresa Brewer and multiple other artists
A fool am I, a fool am I, in love
A tear fell when I saw you in the arms of someone new A tear fell when you left me all alone and feeling blue A tear fell when you told me that your love was not for me Oh, I didn't miss the teardrops but I missed you constantly A fool am I, a fool am I, in love
The teardrops that you stepped on as you danced across the floor Were crushed like my poor heart was when you walked out of the door A tear fell when you told me that the flame in your heart died Darlin', have I lost you like these teardrops from my eyes? A fool am I, a fool am I in love
A tear fell when you told me that your love was not for me Oh, I didn't miss the teardrops but I missed you constantly A fool am I, a fool am I, in love

À Te Regarder Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - J. Constantin Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Tout le jour tu es loin de moi Mais lorsque tombe la nuit Que tu viens dormir prés de moi J'oublie toute ma vie Quand se ferment sur notre amour Les portes de ton sommeil En moi que de tourments s'éveillent
À te regarder J'ai le coeur qui soupire Je voudrais crier, sangloter ou bien rire À te regarder Je sens comme une angoisse Si tu savais ce que tu tiens de place
À te regarder J'ai le coeur qui chavire Et mes pensées Me font mal, me déchirent Si tu devais rêver à quelqu'un d'autre Et partager ces joies qui sont les nôtres
À te regarder Quand la peur me domine Pour arracher ce cri de ma poitrine Je veux t'éveiller, te voir devenir blême Et m'effondrer en te criant: "Je t'aime"
Walkin' To Missouri Composer(s): Bob Merrill Performer(s): Sammy Kaye; and various other artists
Poor little robin Walkin', walkin', walkin' to Missouri He can't afford to fly Got a penny for a poor little robin Walkin' walkin' walkin' to Missouri Got a teardrop in his eye
I hope my story don't make you cry But this birdie flew too high He flew from his old Missouri home He fell right into the city ways, like dancin' in cabarets From party to party he would roam
Poor little robin Walkin', walkin', walkin' to Missouri He can't afford to fly. Got a penny for a poor little robin Walkin' walkin' walkin' to Missouri Got a teardrop in his eye
He met a birdie who looked so nice A real bird of paradise Good lookin' but fickle in the heart She gave him kisses and gave him sighs But oh, how she told him lies 'Cause she loved another from the start
Poor little robin Walkin', walkin', walkin' to Missouri He can't afford to fly. Got a penny for a poor little robin Walkin' walkin' walkin' to Missouri Got a teardrop in his eye
His dreams are battered, his feathers bent Now he hasn't got a cent He feels like his heart is gonna break So if he ever walks up to you Please throw him a crumb or two 'Cause you could have made the same mistake
Poor little robin Walkin', walkin', walkin' to Missouri He can't afford to fly Got a penny for a poor little robin Walkin' walkin' walkin' to Missouri Got a teardrop in his eye Got a teardrop in his eye
