Avec Ce Soleil Composer(s): Jacques Larue - M. Philippe-Gerard Performer(s): Edith Piaf
Avec ce soleil, on avait envie De ne pas parler De boire de la vie A petites goulées Sous le ciel superbe Le long du talus, mâchant un brin d'herbe Et jupe collée, elle regardait D'un air triomphant Ce jeune homme imberbe Ou encore presqu'enfant Qui la désirait Il aurait fallu presque rien, peut-être Un geste de lui Un sourire d'elle qui lui dise "viens" Il aurait fallu presque rien, peut-être Qu'un oiseau s'enfuie Avec un bruit d'ailes pour que tout soit bien...
Pour que par-dessus le toit de l'usine Le long des murs gris Pour que par-dessus la route voisine Et ses pavés gris Pour que par-dessus toutes les collines Pour que par-dessus toutes les forêts Pour que monte au ciel, sans cloches et sans noces Un amour de gosses Qui purifierait... Mais c'était déjà deux enfants durcis Qui ne croyaient plus d'avoir à se dire Que les mots des grands... Que la vie déjà, broyait sans merci Qui ne savaient plus ni rêver, ni rire Cur indifférent...
Et ce jour encore Le long du talus Le coquelicots avec les bleuets En vain attendirent Une main cruelle Qui les cueillerait...

Hear that whistle, it's ten o'clock
(Don't let go, don't let go)
Come on baby, it's time to rock
(Don't let go, don't let go)
I'm so happy I got you here
(Don't let go, don't let go)
Keeps me grinnin' from ear to ear
(Don't let go, don't let go)
Oooooh-weeee, this feelin's killin' me
Aaaaaah-shucks, well
I wouldn't stop it for a million bucks
I love you so
Just hold me tight and don't let go
Thunder, lightnin', wind and rain
(Don't let go, don't let go)
Love is hummin' inside my brain
(Don't let go, don't let go)
I'm so eager I'm nearly dyin
(Don't let go, don't let go)
You been keepin' your lips from mine
(Don't let go, don't let go)
Oooooh-weeee, this feelin's killin' me
Aaaaaah-shucks, well
I wouldn't stop it for a million bucks
I love you so
Just hold me tight and don't let go
Hound dog barkin' upside the hill
(Don't let go, don't let go)
Love is draggin' him through the mill
(Don't let go, don't let go)
If it wasn't for havin' you
(Don't let go, don't let go)
I'd be barkin' and hollerin' too
(Don't let go, don't let go)
Oooooh-weeee, this feelin's killin' me
Aaaaaah-shucks, well
I wouldn't stop it for a million bucks
I love you so
Just hold me tight and don't let go
One day baby, you'll cook me yet
(Don't let go, don't let go)
I'll be hollerin', and soaken' wet
(Don't let go, don't let go)
One thing baby, I'll never stand
(Don't let go, don't let go)
Your lips kissin' some other man
(Don't let go, don't let go)
Oooooh-weeee, this feelin's killin' me
Aaaaaah-shucks, well
I wouldn't stop it for a million bucks
I love you so
Just hold me tight and don't let go
Just hold me tight
Just hold me tight
Just hold me tight

Avec ton sourire au coin de tes lèvres Avec ton regard comme rempli de fièvre Tu sembles sortir des mains d'un orfièvre Et je ne peux que t'aimer mon amour
Avec dans ton cur des points vulnérables Avec les fureurs dont tu es capable Tu es tour à tour l'ange ou bien le diable Qui vient troubler mes nuits et mes jours
Ceux qui disent des sottises Et prédisent notre échec Je les ignore et t'adore Plus encore avec
Avec tes façon de fille à la page Avec tes curieux écarts de langage Le peu de printemps qui compte ton âge Je voudrais bien te garder toujours
Avec dans ta tête un grain de folie Avec dans ton corps le goût de la vie J'ai trouvé en toi toute une harmonie Et je ne peux que t'aimer mon amour
Avec ta pudeur mêlée d'indécence Avec ta candeur frôlant l'inconsciense Ta maturité si près de lénfance Je voudrais bien te garder toujours
Avec tes chagrins Tes éclats de voix Ton rire enfantin Ta manière à toi De parler soudain De n'importe quoi Et qui vont si bien Avec toi
Don't Let Go
Composer(s): Lou Gramm - Mick Jones
Performer(s): Foreigner
Another long day, another long night I try to make it home before it gets light I'm working hard so some day we can play When I try to explain, you just push me away Don't push me away
You say I don't spend enough time with you Or take an interest in the things you do We call it quits almost every other day And the rare times we're going strong We let our pride get in the way Seems like it's always in the way
But don't let go, don't let our love go Don't let go, just let our love grow Sometimes we might drift away, don't let our love go But don't let go of our love when it feels right
This kind of life can put us both to the test But it's not a question of who knows best Our love's a ship that has its sails a little torn All we need to do is sew 'em up And we can weather the storm Gonna ride that storm
So don't let go, don't let our love go Don't let go, just let our love grow Sometimes we might drift away, don't let our love go But don't let go
No no, don't let go, don't let our love go Oh don't let go, just let our love grow Sometimes we might drift away, don't let our love go But don't let go of our love when it feels right
I don't see you for days When you leave me in the dark My imagination runs away Just throw me a line And I'll, I'll still hold on I'll still hold on, I'll still hold on And I won't let go
Don't let go, don't let our love go Baby don't let go, just let our love grow Don't let our love fade away, don't let our love go Don't let go of our love when it feels right
Oh no, don't let our love go Don't let go, just let our love grow Sometimes we might drift away, don't let our love go But don't let go of our love when it feels right
Nenhuma ave noturna tão triste não pode ser eu sou igual ao deserto onde ninguém quer viver eu sou a pedra de ponta areia quente nos dedos eu sou chocalho de cobra incêndio no arvoredo eu sou vereda de espinhos seca flor no joazeiro fogueira do meio dia eu sou o tiro certeiro Nenhuma ave deserta Noturna não pode ser eu sou igual ao tão triste onde ninguém quer viver

Enfant béni des dieux d'Athènes Au grands yeux sombres des icônes Un roi a fait de vous sa reine Quant au soleil la mer se donne J'entends les trompettes d'Aïda Madame Butterfly je vous aime Chantez moi encore la Tosca Menez moi dans votre Bohème
Ave Maria ave Maria Ave Maria Maria Norma
Comme un oiseau de nuit malade L'Opéra meurt d'amours chimères Comme un bateau loin de sa rade Pour une diva et s'entrouvert Manon Lescaut s'est fiancée Un soir d'hiver belle alseste Et Turandot s'en va danser Une étonnante chanson de gestes
Ave Maria ave Maria Ave Maria Maria Norma
Comme un prière païenne Pour l'unique amour d'une princesse Le monde entier est sur la scène Il vient l'aimer le temps d'une messe Carmen salut une dernière fois Désespérément belle et fauve Et l'écho tragique de sa voix Rejoint les pleurs de la nuit mauve

Don't leave me now Now that I need you How blue and lonely Id be If you should say we're through
Don't break my heart This heart that loves you They'll just be nothing for me If you should leave me now
What good is dreamin' If I must dream all alone by myself Without you darling My dreams would just gather dust Like a book on a shelf
Come to these arms These arms that need you Don't close your eyes to my plea Oh,don't leave me now don't close your eyes, oh please oh you don't leave me now
Ave Maria Composer(s): Renato Zero - R. Serio Performer(s): Renato Zero
Quanta poesia, buttata via, Ave Maria La crudeltà, l'ingenuità, Ave Maria Noi sempre ad un passo dal cielo Poi davanti agli occhi, quel velo...
Schegge di eroi, venuti dal mai, Ave Maria Fiori appena spuntati, e già recisi, Ave Maria Rei, di questa cieca ignoranza Rei, del vuoto di una presenza Vuoi illuminarci, Maria! Puoi un'altra volta, Puoi...Maria!
Figli taciuti Venduti o dimenticati Orrore, oppure anche tu, hai finito di non vedere alimentando così il silenzio, ch'e' qui
Ave Maria Ave Maria Dove si muore prima di poter capire, Ave Maria Dove la ragione non ha più niente da imparare, Ave Maria Si, siamo meschini e anche vili Ma, non siamo stati mai così soli...soli!
Ave Maria, Ave Maria, Ave Maria! Stai con la povera gente Stai! Dai colore a chi non ha niente! Niente... Sai, quella coscienza ci sfugge e la paura è già... legge Ave Maria!
Più luce alla speranza è così buia questa via! Ave Maria Un abbraccio ancora... Tu puoi farlo... Maria un'altra volta, Maria!

Dont laugh at me cause Im a fool I know its true, yes Im a fool No-one seems to care Id give the world to share my life with someone Who really loves me I see them all falling in love But my lucky star hides up above Someday maybe my star will smile on me Dont laugh at me cause Im a fool

Dont laugh at me cause Im a fool I know its true, yes Im a fool No-one seems to care Id give the world to share my life with someone Who really loves me I see them all falling in love But my lucky star hides up above Someday maybe my star will smile on me Dont laugh at me cause Im a fool

Ave Maria Escuchame, Ave Maria Ave Maria Tu Sabes Que Yo La Quiero Y Es Todo Lo Que Tengo Ave Maria Escuchame, Ave Maria Ave Maria Te Pido Que No Termine Nuestro Amor Nuestro Amor Nuestro Amor
Don't Know Much
Composer(s): Barry Mann - Tom Snow - Cynthia Weil
First release by: Barry Mann - 1980
Covered by multiple other artists
Look at this face I know the years are showing Look at this life I still don't know where it's going I don't much but I know I love you That may be all I need to know
Look at these eyes they never seen what matters Look at these dreams so beaten and so battered I don't much but I know I love you That may be all I need to know
So many questions still left unanswered So much I've never broken through And when I feel you near me sometimes I see so clearly That only truth I'll never know is me and you
Look at this man so blessed with inspiration Look at this soul still searching for salvation I don't much but I know I love you That may be all I need to know
I don't much but I know I love you That may be all I need to know I don't much but I know I love you That may be all there is to know

Ave, Maria, Ave, Maria those who suffer call out to you your arms embrace them all for you have suffered, too like any other the Holy Mother

Ave, Maria, Ave, Maria All who doubt you, stray in the night Maria So take them by the hand and lead them to the light

We all want to see thru life's mystery The quest for knowledge is a natural activity But science be careful -- science be kind We can't go on pretending to be blind Those animal experiments don't make sense You're getting nowhere with cruelty and death I say ignorance was some excuse But uh-uh not now -- you see we got the proof A-a-aanimal testing is a dangerious game All systems are different -- we're not the same It's a terrible risk -- so no surprise We get wrong results -- hey what about Thalidomide Abuse yourself of your own free will Get hurt -- get high -- get in distress But don't drag the animals into this mess
No more torture! The animals are free The same with messing around with atomic energy Hey hey doctor - reincarnation Would you like to come back as a laboratory rat? Here we are coiled like a sleeping snake We got to expand out potential Forgod's sake If we want to avoid this endless human riot Why don't we start by changing our diet Life is for living -- the animals agree If they were meant to be eaten They'd be growing on trees So no more torture of our furry friends In the name of food or scientific ends The pressure is on -- be antivivisection!
All our scientists are messing up - they don't succeed Let the psychics tell what the spirits think we need Our super friends from other planets want to give advice But the money orientated business doesn't think that's nice
Come on let's educate the mutated human race By the super power of amazing grace The missing link of human evolution Is sexuality - it needs a spiritual revolution My individual god identity Is what you've gotta meet It's the rhythm of the beat
Don't kill the animals Don't kill the animals The animals are free
Don't Kill It Carol
Composer(s): Mike Heron
First release by: Mike Heron - 1977
This wild rose that I hold in my hand It's the strangest thing I've seen One bud only just started to show And the leaves are the lightest green It's had it's share of the rain It needs some feeling to light it's fiery flame again But one cruel lie and it could die
(Don't kill it Carol) Oh Carol oh, won't you let this flower grow Don't kill it Carol Oh Carol oh, won't you let this flower grow Don't kill it Carol
This wild rose that I hold in my hand It could grow to be so strong Born one night in the calm of the storm It was made for a rock and roll song It's only just seen the light It could so easily fall back to the gentle night But one cruel lie and it could die
(Don't kill it Carol) Oh Carol oh, won't you let this flower grow Don't kill it Carol Oh Carol oh, won't you let this flower grow Don't kill it Carol
It's looking for a place to live outside all space and time Where there's no need for it to fade There's a secret garden that I think we can find Lot's of sunshine there's a touch of shade
(Don't kill it Carol)
This wild rose that I hold in my hand It's the strangest thing I've seen One bud only just started to show And the leaves are the lightest green It's had it's share of the rain It needs some feeling to light it's fiery flame again But one cruel lie and it could die
(Don't kill it Carol) Oh Carol oh, won't you let this flower grow Don't kill it Carol Oh Carol oh, won't you let this flower grow Don't kill it Carol
Eu sei que existe por aí Uma andorinha solta Procurando um verão que se perdeu no tempo Cansou de ser herói do espaço E quer a companhia de outros pássaros É que o seu coração de ave Não agüenta tanta solidão Eu sei que eu ando por aí Sou andorinha solta E nem sei a estação em que estou vivendo Não quero ser herói de nada Só quero a companhia de outros braços É que meu coração de homem Voa alto como um pássaro
