Tell Me It's Over
Composer(s): Stephen Bishop
Performer(s): Frida Lyngstad



Is she somewhere in this city?
Is she somewhere in this town?
What's her name?
What does she look like?
Is she fun to be around?
Does she make you feel like I did?
Oh so long ago

I wanna hear it from you
Tell me that it's over
Let me hear it from you
Tell me that it's over
I wanna hear it from you

First you look at me with anger in your eyes
Then you look at me with spite
That's if you look at me at all
That's how I'm looking at you tonight

You tell me that love's a drag for you
But when the lights go out you panic

I wanna hear it from you...

I know there must be some kind of fool
To be in love with you
To be in love with you

Tell me that it's over
Let me hear it from you
Tell me that it's over
I wanna hear it from you

My Lips Are Sealed
Composer(s): Hal Blair; Bill Peppers; Ben Weisman
Performer(s): Jim Reeves



I promise you he'll never know
That once we loved each other so
The past we knew I'll not reveal
My lips are sealed

My heart may cry with every beat
Without your love I'm not complete
It doesn't matter how I feel
My lips are sealed

Let there be laughter
Not one single tear
And ever after
Let your fears disappear

If you love him as I love you
Forget the past I led you through
Just don't look back, it's all concealed
My lips are sealed

Let there be laughter
Not one single tear
And ever after
Let your fears disappear

If you love him as I love you
Forget the past I led you through
Just don't look back, it's all concealed
My lips are sealed

Tell Me How Long The Train's Been Gone
Composer(s): Henry Nemo - Brooks - Kay Starr
Performer(s): Kay Starr



Now here's a little ditty about a depot disaster
We have a distressed damsel and the doggonest dilemma!

A-tell me how long the train's been gone
A-tell me how long the train's been gone
A-tell me how long the train's been gone
The people keep a-comin' but the train's done gone!

Ever'one knows the train don't wait
Ever'one knows the train don't wait
It's your own fault if the show up late
The people keep a-comin' but the train don't wait!

Now the sun drops in the west
Up pops the same old moon
Same as the train to explain
There'll be another choo-choo soon!

A-tell me how long the train's been gone
A-tell me how long the train's been gone
A-tell me how long the train's been gone
The people keep a-comin' but the train's done gone!

People comin'
See I'm a-runnin'!
See I'm a-runnin', a-shovin', a-breakin' down the gate!
See I'm pushin'
They're shovin'
Well the people keep a-comin' but the train's done gone!

Yes, the people keep comin', the train's got out
That's what everybody's talkin' about!
You better get to movin', can't be late
Because the man that takes the tickets gonna close the gate!

A-tell me how long the train's been gone
A-tell me how long the train's been gone
A-tell me how long the train's been gone
The people keep a-comin' but the train's done gone!

The sun comes up, out from the west
Up pops the same old moon
Same as the train to explain
There'll be another choo-choo soon!

Tell me how long the train's been gone
Hhow long has the train been gone?
Tell me how long the train's been gone
The people keep a-comin' but the train's done gone!
People keep a-comin'
Yes the people keep a-comin'
But the train done gone!

My Lighthouse
Composer(s): Jarvis Cocker; Simon Hinkler
Performer(s): Pulp



Come up to my lighthouse for I have something I wish to say
It can wait for a moment; well in fact it can wait all day
I just wanted to bring you up here so you could have the chance to see
The beauty of this situation that you could share with me
It may seem strange to talk of love and then lighthouses
It's not strange to me
Hey All alone you and I in our high tower
That's the way to be
Some laugh at my lighthouse they say it's just an ivory tower
But I don't mind because I know their envy grows by the hour
See I have a purpose up here to guide the ships upon their way
All this is mine; it could be yours too what do you say?
It may seem strange to talk of love and then lighthouses
It's not strange to me 
Hey All alone you and I in our high tower
That's the way to be
Hehehey hey

My Life
Composer(s): Billy Joel
Performer(s): Billy Joel



Got a call from an old friend we'd used to be real close
Said he couldn't go on the American way
Closed the shop, sold the house, bought a ticket to the west coast
Now he gives them a stand-up routine in L.A.

I don't need you to worry for me cause I'm alright
I don't want you to tell me it's time to come home
I don't care what you say anymore this is my life
Go ahead with your own life leave me alone

I never said you had to offer me a second chance
I never said I was a victim of circumstance
I still belong
Don't get me wrong
And you can speak your mind
But not on my time

They will tell you, you can't sleep alone in a strange place
Then they'll tell you can't sleep with somebody else
Ah but sooner or later you sleep in your own space
Either way it's OK you wake up with yourself 

Gossip And Second Gossip
Composer(s): Alan Jay Lerner; Frederick Loewe



Gossip

There's that wretched man
Louis DeLaTour
With his latest horrible amour
Isn't she a mess?
Isn't she a sight?
Let's invite them out tomorrow night

Honore Lachaille
Honore Lachaille
With another twinkle in his eye
Isn't it a shame?
Isn't it a crime
Seeing him so happy all the time?

There's Gaston Lachaille
With his little friend
Is that passion never going to end?
Did you see her ring?
Not a bagatelle!
Dear Liane is doing very well

Second Gossip

There's Gaston Lachaille
With his latest belle
She should keep him busy for a spell
Isn't she a dream?
Isn't she a dear?
Oh, if only dear Liane were here

There's Gaston Lachaille
There's Gaston Lachaille
With the latest apple of his eye
Where could she be from?
Do you know her name?
She's a little young to play the game

Tell Me Again
Composer(s): Jerry Crutchfield
Performer(s): Jeannie Seely
and multiple other artists



Tell me again how I'll soon forget you
And won't even think of your name
But this time go slow, for I want to know
Just how it is that I will lose this thing

Tell me again how there'll be another
And how that someone will take your place
Then tell me the part what to do with a heart
That still loves you, yes tell me again

Tell me how I'll no longer see you
Tossing sleeplessly through each night
Or when my mem'ry strays to a favorite day
When the world was ours and everything was right

Tell me again how I'll make it without you
And how I'll have time on my side
Then tell me the part what to do with a heart
That still loves you, yes tell me again

My Last Song
Performer(s): Country Joe McDonald



Well now the party's over
Food and dishes all put away
Family and guests are all off in their beds
Looks like the end of the day
Just you and I together
And I don't know what to say
It feels so strange, the same old game
Without a reason to play
Without a reason to play

I never shared the vision
In fact I've never known
From dawn to dusk relations rust
You stood it all alone
And there in all confusion
So big, so fearless, so bold
I tried so hard I almost died
But now I guess you know
But now I guess you know

They're boarding up the windows
The closets seem so small
The picture frames of mem'ry lane
Come cascading off the wall
And now the questions and the answers
Ring so hollow in my mind
The reasons change, the agenda fades
Up against the wailing wall
Up against the wailing wall

Melting all my anger
As I turn life a page
To make some sense, to feel repent
What to save and cast away
Now in the final chapter
Of the greatest story told
I see so clear through clouded tears
I don't want to see you go
I don't want to see you go

Well now the party's over
Food and dishes all put away
Family and guests are all off in their beds
Looks like the end of the day
Just you and I together
And I don't know what to say
It feels so strange, the same old game
Without a reason to play
Without a reason to play 

Gosse De Paris
Composer(s): Maurice Vidalin; Charles Aznavour
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour; Isabelle Aubret



Gosse de Paris
Pour s'embrasser
Nous n'avions pas de chambre
Pas de sous
Pas même un lit
Même cassé
Juste un coin d'herbe verte
Loin de tout
Mais c'était là que dans la nuit
Nous entendions crier les grands trains fous
Courant vers l'inconnu, courant sans nous
En emportant nos coeurs jusqu'aux îles

Gosse de Paris
On a pleuré
Sur le quai d'une gare
Mon amie
En dénouant
Nos mains, serrées
Sur toute une romance
De Paris

J'aurai pas dû m'en aller
J'aurai pas dû te laisser
Il fallait nous contenter
D'un bonheur de quatre sous

Rien qu'à toi
Rien qu'à moi
Rien qu'à nous
Tu sais
Gosse de Paris
C'était promis
Ni mon coeur
Ni mes lèvres
N'ont menti
Si je ne t'ai jamais écrit
C'est que la bonne étoile
M'a trahie
Crois moi j'ai fait ce que j'ai pu
Mais nous ne verrons pas l'île au trésor
Bien trop d'années me sont tombés dessus
Trop de temps loin de toi mais qu'importe

Gosse de Paris
Gosse de ma rue
Ombre parmi les ombres
Du faubourg
Je t'aime encore
Amie perdue
De ma première enfance
Mon amour

Tell Me About It
Composer(s): Bill LaBounty - Pat McLaughlin
Performer(s): Delbert McClinton & Tanya Tucker
and multiple other artists



They say that there's a hole in the atmosphere
The things you think will last disappear
When you were ready to say I do
Somebody lowered the boom on you
Now you need a sympathetic ear

Tell me about it
Tell me about teardrops in the dark
Tell me about it
Tell me about your broken heart
You say you need someone to hold you tight
(You) can't stand another lonely night
Well come closer and
Tell me about it

Love isn't always true it hurts sometimes
Your tears will tell on you girl, I'm not blind
I know what you're goin' through
I graduated from that school too
If you need a shoulder cry on mine

Tell me about it
Tell me about teardrops in the dark
Tell me about it
Tell me about your broken heart
You say you need someone to hold you tight
(You) can't stand another lonely night
Well come closer and
Tell me about it

You took a lesson in playin' a fool
I graduated from that school too
If you need a shoulder cry on mine

Tell me about it
Tell me about teardrops in the dark
Tell me about it
Tell me about your broken heart
You say you need someone to hold you tight
(You) can't stand another lonely night
Well come closer and
Tell me about it

One hour and I'll be needing you
I know you're gonna make me blue
My heart is trembling through and through
'Cause I know very well
I can tell, I can tell
This will be my last date with you

Just can't believe that this could end
I know I'll never love again
You'll ask me to be just a friend
It's as plain as can be
I can see, I can see
This will be my last date with you

I know we had a quarrel
But all sweethearts do

I gave my love to prove to you
That I would always love you and be true

I know you've met somebody new
You'll tell me you and I are through
My plans and dreams cannot come true
And when you say goodbye
I know I will cry
'Cause I'll know it's my last date with you

Gossamer
Composer(s): Joan Baez; Nina Duscheck



When I was young then all my boughs 
were thickly hung with glittering hopes
But one by one they've blown away 
and only one remains today
It flutters out upon the air
one hope all pinned on gossamer

What are all lives but gossamer 
in one lacy cobweb crossed? 
Yet strand by strand we tear at it 
until the pattern's lost
And one by one hopes blow away 
till only one remains today

I hope the forest will return 
to climb the mist-hung morning slopes
Where falling leaves deep-banked in fern 
may meet the water ouzel's hopes
But one by one they've blown away 
and only one remains today

And when the condor opens flight 
on crystal air not cracked or stained 
by any fallen angel's flight
these glittering hopes may be regained

When I was young then all my boughs 
were thickly hung with glittering hopes
But one by one they've blown away 
and only one remains today
It flutters out upon the air
one hope all pinned on gossamer

Tell Me A Story
Composer(s): Terry Gilkyson
Performer(s): Frankie Laine & Jimmy Boyd



Junior:
Tell me story, tell me story
Tell me story, remember what you said
You promised me you said you would
You got to give in so I'll be good
Tell me a story, then I'll go to bed

Father:
Oh, worry, worry, weary ends my day
Time to go home without my raise in pay
Home by the fire where a man can just relax
Sippers there by the chair, not a worry, not a care
Along comes Junior swinging his little axe

Junior:
Tell me a story, tell me a story
Tell me a story, remember what you said
Tell me about the birds and bees
How do you make a chicken sneeze
Tell me a story, then I'll go to bed

Father:
Came home so late one evening last July
Played a little poker the time had passed me by
Shoes in my hand and my darlin' wife in bed
Up the stairs sayin' a prayer
Then a voice comes through the air ....

Junior:
Hi you there, Daddy
Remember what you said

Tell me a story, tell me a story
Tell me a story, remember what you said
Tell me how your eye got black
Because the doorway hit you back
Tell me a story, then I'll go to bed

Father:
Once upon a time I remember long ago

Junior:
Don't go back in history
Your memory's kinda slow

Father:
Stop your noisy talkin'
Until I finish with my tale
Once upon a...

Junior:
Upon a what...

Father:
Upon your back you'll get a swat

Junior:
Tell me about the fish you caught
That's was bigger than a whale

Junior:
Tell me a story, tell me a story
Tell me a story, remember what you said
You promised me, you said you would
You gotta give in so I'll be good

Father:
Here's a tale you'll never forget
(Tap, tap, tap)

Junior:
Ouch
My tails all red

Father:
And now get up to bed

Junior:
Ha, ha come on Daddy
Tell me a story
Hee, hee

Oh my Lady Héroïne
Oh ma beauté ma divine
Referme sur moi tes ailes
Mon bel ange ma toute belle

Oh my Lady Héroïne
Ma liaison clandestine
En douceur mon sucre candi
Emmène-moi au paradis

Oh my Lady Héroïne
Oh ma beauté ma divine
Toi mon amour platonique
Mon bébé ma fille unique

Oh my Lady Héroïne
Aussi pure que Justine
Tous les malheurs de ta vertu
Et tous ses bonheurs me tuent

Oh my Lady Héroïne
Dans ta beauté je devine
Quand ton regard me transperce
Tous les charmes de la Perse

Oh my Lady Héroïne
Mon opium ma cocaïne
Est-tu venue d'Extrême Orient
Ou bien d'un marché persan

Gorrión, quién va a querer a un pajarillo como tú
gorrión, que siempre vas de corazón en corazón
gorrión, cuando tus alas en la noche estén perdidas
quién te va a querer, quién te va a ayudar... Gorrión
Qué será de ti, cuando yo no esté
quién te dará, cobijo y pan
Qué será de ti, cuando yo no esté
quién va aliviar, tu soledad
Gorrión, que como ella eres libre y poco fiel
gorrión, que como ella sólo buscas mi calor
gorrión, por qué te comes el amor que hay en mis manos
y echas a volar, y echas a volar... Gorrión
Qué será de ti, cuando yo no esté
quién te dará, cobijo y pan
Qué será de ti, cuando yo no esté
quién va aliviar, tu soledad
Qué será de ti, cuando yo no esté
Qué será de ti, cuando yo no esté
quién te dará, cobijo y pan
Qué será de ti, cuando yo no esté
quién va aliviar, tu soledad
Qué será de ti, cuando yo no esté
quién te dará, cobijo y pan
Qué será de ti, cuando yo no esté
quién va aliviar, tu soledad
