Je Ne Pense Qu'à L'amour ((Adapted from: Lovesick Blues (Elsie Clark) - 1922)) Composer(s): Irving Mills - Cliff Friend - Fernand Bonifay Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell - 1963
"Moi, je ne pense quà lAmour Mais lAmour veut-il de moi? Je ne pense quà lAmour Mais lui pense-t-il à moi? Jaimerais pourtant bien rencontrer La fille dont jai toujours rêvé Impatient, je lattends Je lattends depuis longtemps Dans le grand jardin fleuri De mes longues nuits Je ne changerai pas Je ne pense quà lAmour Et cest bien mon droit Car à vingt ans, cest le moment De mener son cur tambour battant Et de vivre sa vie A sa fantaisie Je peux danser, mamuser Essayer de me saouler Dans les rythmes endiablés Je peux rester enfermé Dans ma chambre, sans parler Pendant des soirées Je peux sortir, revenir Fouiller dans mes souvenirs Rien ne peut me guérir Je reste seul, abandonné L Amour ma oublié Mais, je ne pense quà lAmour Car lAmour cest tout pour moi Je ne pense quà lAmour Qui me glisse entre les doigts Jaimerais pourtant bien rencontrer La fille dont jai toujours rêvé Impatient, je lattends Je lattends depuis longtemps Dans le grand jardin fleuri De mes longues nuits Je ne changerai pas Je ne pense quà lAmour Et cest bien mon droit Je ne suis pas celui quon croit Celle qui viendra le comprendra Car je nai quune envie, laimer pour toute la vie Je nai quune envie, laimer pour toute la vie"
Lovely Rita Composer(s): John Lennon - Paul McCartney First release by: The Beatles - 1967 Covered by multiple other artists
Lovely Rita meter maid ... Lovely Rita meter maid ... Lovely Rita meter maid ... Nothing can come between us When it gets dark I tow your heart away Standing by a parking meter, when I caught a glimpse of Rita filling in a ticket in her little white book In a cap she looked much older And the bag across her shoulder Made her look a little like a military man Lovely Rita meter maid ... May I inquire discreetly When are you free to take some tea with me Took her out and tried to win her Had a laugh and over dinner Told her I would really like to see her again Got the bill and Rita paid it Took her home I nearly made it Sitting on the sofa with a sister or two Oh, Lovely Rita meter maid ... Where would I be without you Give us a wink and make me think of you

Mon combat Je l'ai livré avec mon âme Et la foi Qui dormait au fond de mon coeur Me dévorait de mille flammes Et sa voix, et sa voix Me faisait rêver de bonheur À l'amour Qu'est le combat que tous les êtres Tour à tour Livrent au vent du désespoir À l'amour Qu'est le seul bien qui nous pénètre Chaque jour, chaque jour Avec plus de force et d'espoir
Mon combat C'est la lutte de tout le monde Pour son droit En des jours meilleurs Mon combat Je l'ai livré avec mon âme Et la foi Qui dormait au fond de mon coeur Mon combat Me dévorait de mille flammes Et sa voix, et sa voix Me faisait rêver de bonheur
Mon combat Je l'ai livré avec furie Et la joie Que je récolte est bien à moi Mon combat Je l'ai gagné avec ma vie Pour que toi et moi Nous ayons l'amour J'ai livré un jour Mon combat
Get Me To The World On Time Composer(s): Jill Jones; Annette Tucker Performer(s): The Electric Prunes
Here I go (higher, higher) Here I go (higher, higher) Here I go, go, go, go, go You gotta get me to the world on time You gotta get me to the world on time
The minute you walk in the room I break into a sweat My hands begin to shake so bad I can't light my cigarrette Then you start walkin' towards me and my cool comes all undone If I could get my feet to move I'd turn around and run
My pulse is beatin' faster And I'm headin' for disaster
Here I go (higher, higher) Here I go (higher, higher) Here I go Get me to the world on time You gotta get me to the world on time
One kiss from you and my whole body starts to actin' strange You shake up all my hormones, you put me through a change This chemical reaction isn't easy to refine You drive me to distraction, you disturb my peace of mind
You got me spinning like a top now And I don't know how to stop now
Is this what loves all about Lately I feel so without Wild sensations Sweet frustrations You get me goin' and theres no slowin' me down
Lovely Lady Composer(s): Ted Koehler - Jimmy McHugh Performer(s): Kenny Baker and multiple other artists
Lovely lady, I'm falling madly In love with you It's a feeling beyond concealing What can I do Take my heart, it's yours alone To keep forever Lovely lady, I'm falling madly In love with you
Un blues digital Me "spleen", me fait mal Une chanson "laser" Peut rayer mon cur À peine entrée dans ma vie Tu cherches déjà la sortie J'suis plus ton "top" plus ton "hit"
Et tu brises mon cur vinyle
Y'en a qu'en pleurent D'autres qui dansent Pas moi, pas moi Y'en a qu'en meurent D'autres qui chantent Comme moi, comme moi J'ai p't'être trop donné Je peux plus t'étonner Plus t'étonner J'suis p't'être plus ton style P't'être plus ton style Plus ton style Et tu brises mon cur de vinyle
Je casse comme un disque Mi-cire mi-plastique J'suis pas un record Pour une "collector" À peine entré dans ta vie Tu m'montres déjà la sortie J'suis plus ton "top" plus ton type Et tu brises mon cur vinyle
Y'en a qu'en pleurent D'autres qui dansent Pas moi, pas moi Mais les sans-cur s'en balancent Comme toi comme toi J'suis p't'être trop fragile P't'être plus ton style Plus ton style J'suis p't'être trop fragile P't'être trop fragile Trop fragile Et tu brises mon cur de vinyle
Y'en a qu'en pleurent D'autres qui dansent Pas moi, pas moi Y'en a qu'en meurent D'autres qui chantent Comme moi, comme moi J'suis p't'être plus ton style Mon cur de vinyle C'est p't'être trop fragile Un cur de vinyle

Lovely Day Composer(s): Bill Withers - Skip Scarborough First release by: Bill Withers - 1977 Covered by multiple other artists
When I wake up in the morning, love And the sunlight hurts my eyes And something without warning, love Bears heavy on my mind
Then I look at you And the world's all right with me Just one look at you And I know it's gonna be A lovely day ... lovely day, lovely day, lovely day ...
When the day that lies ahead of me Seems impossible to face When someone else instead of me Always seems to know the way
Then I look at you And the world's all right with me Just one look at you And I know it's gonna be A lovely day ...
When the day that lies ahead of me Seems impossible to face When someone else instead of me Always seems to know the way
Then I look at you And the world's alright with me Just one look at you And I know it's gonna be A lovely day ...
Mon Coeur Est Un Violon Performer(s): André Claveau
Mon cur est un violon Sur lequel ton archet joue Et qui vibre tout du long Appuyé contre ta joue Tantôt l'air est vif et gai Comme un refrain de folie Tantôt le son fatigué Traîne avec mélancolie
Dans la nuit qui s'achève Mon cur est plein de toi La musique est un rêve Qui vibre sous tes doigts Sous tes doigts la caresse Rend mon désir si fort Qu'il va jusqu'à l'ivresse Et meurt à la fin de l'accord
Mon cur est un violon Sur lequel ton archet joue Et qui vibre tout du long Appuyé contre ta joue Tantôt l'air est vif et gai Comme un refrain de folie Tantôt le son fatigué Traîne avec mélancolie
Loveless Love Composer(s): W.C. Handy Performer(s): Alberta Hunter and multiple other artists
Love is like a hydrant, it turns off and on Like some friendships when your money's gone Love stands in with the loan sharks when your heart's in pawn
If I had some strong wings like an aeroplane Had some broad wings like some aeroplane I would fly away forever never to come again For love oh love oh loveless love Has set our hearts are gold-less gold From milk-less milk and silk-less silk We are growing used to soul-less souls
Such grafting times we never saw That's why we have a pure full law In everything we find a flaw Even love oh love oh loveless love
Mon Coeur Est Malade Composer(s): P. Loiseau; M. Batt Performer(s): Dave
Oh! Laura, mon cur est malade Toi seule peut me guérir Oh! Laura, mon cur est malade Si tu veux me soigner tu n'as qu'un mot à dire
La fille incendiaire que l'on dit légère Connue sous le nom de Laura A mis dans mon âme le feu et la flamme Le pire de l'histoire c'est qu'elle ne l'éteint pas
Oh! Laura, mon cur est malade Toi seule peut me guérir Oh! Laura, mon cur est malade Si tu veux me soigner tu n'as qu'un mot à dire
Si la ville entière lui jetait la pierre Si l'on disait du mal de Laura Je saurai la défendre, je saurai l'attendre Et s'il n'en restait qu'un je serai celui là
Oh! Laura, mon cur est malade Toi seule peut me guérir Oh! Laura, mon cur est malade Si tu veux me soigner tu n'as qu'un mot à dire
Oh! Laura, mon cur est malade Toi seule peut me guérir Oh! Laura, mon cur est malade Si tu veux me soigner tu n'as qu'un mot à dire
Oh! Laura, mon cur est malade Toi seule peut me guérir Oh! Laura, mon cur est malade Si tu veux me soigner tu n'as qu'un mot à dire
Get It Right Next Time Composer(s): Gerry Rafferty Performer(s): Gerry Rafferty
Out on the street I was talkin' to a man He said "there's so much of this life of mine
that I don't understand" You shouldn't worry I said that ain't no crime Cause if you get it wrong you'll get it right next time, next time
You need direction, yeah you need a name When you're standing in the crossroads every highway looks the same After a while you can recognize the signs So if you get it wrong you'll get it right next time, next time
Life is a liar yeah life is a cheat It'll lead you on and pull the ground from underneath your feet No use complainin', don't you worry, don't you whine Cause if you get it wrong you'll get it right next time, next time
You gotta grow, you gotta learn by your mistakes You gotta die a little everyday just to try to stay awake When you believe there's no mountain you can climb And if you get it wrong you'll get it right next time, next time
