    Faith Healer
    Composer(s): Alex Harvey - Hugh McKenna - Zal Cleminson
    First release by: The Sensational Alex Harvey Band - 1973
    Covered by multiple other artists



    If your body's feelin' bad
    And it's the only one you have
    You want to take away the pain
    Go out walkin' in the rain
    You watch the flowers go to bed
    Ask the man inside yah head
    Your spirit never has to grieve
    All yah got to do's believe

    The faith healer
    The faith healer

    All yah got to do is feel
    Your body's going to start to heal
    Fingertips and holy fire
    Everlasting sweet desire
    It don't matter what the doctor said
    The healer man will sail away
    Immortality for two
    The miracles, can come to you

    The faith healer
    The faith healer

    Can I put my hands on you?
    Can I put my hands on you?

    The faith healer
    The faith healer

    Faith, and hope and charity
    It's simple relativity
    He can make you understand
    All make up to take his hand
    Remember when somebody said
    Ask the man inside yah head
    The fingertips of holy fire
    Everlasting sweet desire

    The faith healer
    The faith healer
    Can I put my hands on you?
    Ahhh... ahhh .... ahhh
    Ahhh... ahhh .... ahhh
    The faith healer...
    The faith healer...
    The faith healer...

    The Fairest Of The Seasons
    Composer(s): Gregory Copeland - Jackson Browne
    Performer(s): Nico



    Now that it's time
    Now that the hour hand has landed at the end
    Now that it's real
    Now that the dreams have given all they had to lend
    I want to know do I stay or do I go
    And maybe try another time
    And do I really have a hand in my forgetting?

    Now that I've tried
    Now that I've finally found that this is not the way
    Now that I turn
    Now that I feel it's time to spend the night away
    I want to know do I stay or do I go
    And maybe finally split the rhyme
    And do I really understand the undernetting?

    Yes and the morning has me
    Looking in your eyes
    And seeing mine warning me
    To read the signs carefully

    Now that it's light
    Now that the candle's falling smaller in my mind
    Now that it's here
    Now that I'm almost not so very far behind
    I want to know do I stay or do I go
    And maybe follow another sign
    And do I really have a song that I can ride on?

    Now that I can
    Now that it's easy, ever easy all around
    Now that I'm here
    Now that I'm falling to the sunlights and a song
    I want to know do I stay or do I go
    And do I have to do just one
    And can I choose again if I should lose the reason?

    Yes, and the morning
    Has me looking in your eyes
    And seeing mine warning me
    To read the signs more carefully

    Now that I smile
    Now that I'm laughing even deeper inside
    Now that I see
    Now that I finally found the one thing I denied
    It's now I know do I stay or do I go
    And it is finally I decide
    That I'll be leaving
    In the fairest of the seasons

    Catch Composer(s): Simon Gallup - Robert Smith - Porl Thompson - Lol Tolhurst - Boris Williams First release by: The Cure - 1987 Covered by multiple other artists



    Yes I know who you remind me of
    a girl I think I used to know
    Yes I'd see her when the day got colder
    on those days when it felt like snow
    You know I even think that she stared like you
    she used to just stand there and stare
    And roll her eyes right up to heaven and make like I just wasn't there

    And she used to fall down a lot
    That girl was always falling again and again
    And I used to sometimes try to catch her
    But I never even caught her name

    And sometimes we would spend the night just rolling about on the floor
    And I remember even though it felt soft at the time, I always used to wake up sore
    You know I even think that she smiled like you, she used to just stand there and smile
    And her eyes would go all sort of far away and stay like that for quite a while

    And I remember she used to fall down a lot
    That girl was always falling again and again
    And I used to sometimes try to catch her
    But I never even caught her name
    Yes I sometimes even tried to catch her
    But I never even caught her name

    Follow Me
    Composer(s): John Denver
    Performer(s): John Denver



    It's by far the hardest thing I've ever done
    to be so in love with you and so a-lone

    Chorus:
    Follow me where I go what I do and who I know
    make it part of you to be a part of me
    follow me up and down all the way and all around
    take my hand and say you'll follow me

    It's long been on my mind you know it's been a long, long time
    I'll try to find the way that I can make you understand
    the way I feel about you and just how much I need you
    to be there where I can talk to you when there's no one else around

    Chorus

    You see, I'd like to share my life with you and show you things I've seen
    places that I'm going to places where I've been
    to have you there beside me and never be alone
    and all the time that you're with me then we will be at home

    The Eyes Of The World
    Composer(s): Jeff Branen - Arthur Lange



    Oh it's great to be great and be something in the eyes of the world
    you proclaim when a name to the eyes of all the world is unfurled
    Not for me; can't you see I am longing for a land night and day
    for a place on the face of this world of ours where we both can hide away

    There's a land that is grand! I can see it every night in my dreams
    Over the sea, here to me, comes the fragrance of its flowers, so it seems
    Loving time, loving clime, where the roses are in bloom all the while!
    Let us fly, you and I, on our honey moon, to that far enchanted Isle

    The eyes of the world, won't you take me from the eyes of the world?
    You know that I want to be, want to be free
    take me to a lonely island far over the sea
    We can live there alone
    We can start a little kingdom of our own, where we can love all the day
    far far away, far from the eyes of the world

    Cataclismo Composer(s): Esteban Taronji Performer(s): Javier Solís and multiple other artists



    Qué pasará si tú me dejas
    qué pasará si tú me olvidas
    le he preguntado a las estrellas
    a la luna y al mismo sol

    Qué pasará si andando el tiempo
    de mí te cansas y te alejas
    le he preguntado a la distancia
    a ver si el eco llega hasta Dios

    Desesperado presintiendo tu partida
    me imagino que te has ido
    para ver la reacción
    que sufriremos cuando estemos separados
    y tú pienses en mis besos
    y yo añore tu calor

    Fue la visión de este delirio
    todo un desastre de locura
    como si el mundo se estrellara
    un cataclismo para los dos

    Desesperado presintiendo tu partida
    me imagino que te has ido
    para ver la reacción
    que sufriremos cuando estemos separados
    y tú pienses en mis besos
    y yo añore tu calor

    Fue la visión de este delirio
    todo un desastre de locura
    como si el mundo se estrellara
    un cataclismo para los dos

    One shoe on; one shoe off
    Nothin' in life is decideable; wouldn't you know
    Nothing's supposed to be easy
    Take one day at a time
    Ain't no need to hurry
    Realize where you are, and where you're going to

    Chorus:
    Follow me, ain't no need to go on all by yourself
    Follow me; don't need nobody else
    Follow me; and together we'll build a better life
    Follow me

    One more time; toe the line
    Nothing in life is impossible
    Both of us know
    Life is as good as we make it
    Dark reflections of the past
    Drown in our tomorrows
    Time to laugh; time to love
    Time to live again

    Chorus

    Time to laugh; time to live again

    The Eyes Of Texas
    Composer(s): John Sinclair



    I once did know a President
    Away down South, in Texas
    And, always, everywhere he went
    He saw the eyes of Texas

    The Eyes of Texas are upon you
    All the live long day
    The Eyes of Texas are upon you
    You can not get away
    Do not think you can escape them
    At night or early in the morn
    The Eyes of Texas are upon you
    'Till Gabriel blows his horn

    Sing me a song of Prexy
    Of days long since gone by
    Again I seem to great him
    And hear his kind reply
    Smiles of gracious welcome
    Before my memory rise
    Again I hear him say to me
    "Remember Texas' Eyes"

    Cat Size Composer(s): Suzi Quatro - Len Tuckey Performer(s): Suzi Quatro



    Now I'm done playing with fools
    And I've paid all my childhood dues
    I find the mountain much steeper to climb
    Am I just one of the crowd?
    I decided a few days ago
    There's no room
    Room for me in this show
    I changed my make-up completely this time
    Now I'm not one ... one of the crowd
    So good-bye
    Good-bye blind eyes
    I'm gonna find me a cat's eye
    Good-bye
    Good-bye blind eyes
    I know what I want to see
    So good-bye
    Good-bye blind eyes
    I'm gonna find me a cat's eye
    Good-bye
    Good-bye blind eyes
    I know what I want to be
    Now I'm done playing the fool
    And I've paid all my childhood dues
    I find the mountain much steeper to climb
    Now I'm not one ... one of the crowd?

    Performer(s): Jack Bruce



    How will I find you O my love
    In the darkness of day
    I will look in glass forests
    Where electric fish play
    How will I see you when I find you
    In the brightness of light
    I will see you on the silver train
    That people call night

    How will I know you when I see you
    In the bareness of spring
    I will know you by starlight
    Where the road's echoes sing

    How will I love you when i know you
    In the greyness of mist
    I will love you forever
    Where sadness hass kisses

    Walking by the sea
    See the names floating by
    Trying to find each other's
    Trails in the sky

    Eyes Of A New York Woman
    Composer(s): Mark James
    Performer(s): B.J. Thomas



    I'll be in New York City
    When the lights shine bright tonight
    Where my woman waits for me
    Arms that hold me tenderly
    Lips as sweet as honeycomb
    Love that waits for me alone
    Deep in the eyes of a New York woman

    The eyes of a New York woman
    Are eyes that can hold a man
    She swept me off of my feet
    Made my world seem so complete
    I'll never have to look for more
    I found what I've been lookin' for
    Deep in the eyes of a New York woman

    Thought I wasn't ready for the tie that binds
    But I lost my heart to her when her eyes met mine
    Now I see her differently
    I've got to make her mine

    So I'll make my home Fun City
    And let the lights shine bright on me
    East side cafés, West side plays
    Uptown, downtown, I'll be there
    I'll never have to look for more
    I found what I've been lookin' for
    Deep in the eyes of a New York woman
    The eyes of a New York woman
    Are eyes that can hold a man
    She swept me off of my feet
    Made my world seem so complete
    I'll never have to look for more
    I found what I've been lookin' for
    Deep in the eyes of a New York woman

    Well I don't know where they come from

    The first time that I got it
    I was just ten years old
    I got it from some kitty next foor
    I went and see the Dr. and
    He gave me the cure
    I think I got it some more

    They give me cat scratch fever
    Cat scratch fever

    It's nothin dangerous
    I feel no pain
    I've got to ch-ch-change
    You know you got it when you're going insane
    It makes a grown man cryin' cryin'
    Won't you make my bed

    I make the pussy purr with
    The stroke of my hand
    They know they gettin' it from me
    They know just where to go
    When they need their lovin man
    They know I do it for free

    They give me cat scratch fever
    Cat scratch fever

    Ni som tror på att lyckan sig vänder
    Följ med mig, följ med mig
    Vi skall fara till främmande länder
    Följ med mig, följ med mig

    Vill du lyckan och kärleken fånga
    Följ med mig, följ med mig
    När vi hör signalerna många
    Följ med mig, följ med mig

    Där skall vi i palmens skugga
    Få höra på musik
    Och se Söderhavet som glimmar i sol
    Jag minns den från i fjol

    Alla spargrisar skall nu bli tömda
    Följ med mig, följ med mig
    Alla sorger skall där bliva glömda
    Följ med mig, följ med mig

    Följ med mig, följ med mig
    Följ med mig, följ med mig

    Där skall vi i palmens skugga
    Få höra på musik

    Följ med mig, följ med mig
    Alla sorger skall där bliva glömda
    Följ med mig, följ med mig

    Om ni tycker att det låter roligt
    Följ med mig, följ med mig
    Till ett land som är varmt, skönt och soligt
    Följ med mig, följ med mig

    The Eyes Of A Child
    Composer(s): Ron Bloom - Graham Russell
    Performer(s): Air Supply



    When you look to the past for life's long hidden meaning
    For the dreams and the plans made in your youth
    Does the thrill to achieve match the warm hidden feeling
    That lies so still and lives in you

    In the eyes of a child there is joy, there is laughter
    There is hope, there is trust, a chance to shape the future
    For the lessons of life there is no better teacher
    Than the look in the eyes of a child

    You've found the place to walk the path you've chosen
    You'll never miss the world you left behind
    When life gives life, it's happiness unbroken
    When you give love, it's love you'll find

    In the eyes of a child there is joy, there is laughter
    There is hope, there is trust, a chance to shape the future
    For the lessons of life, there is no better teacher
    Than the look in the eyes of a child

    In the eyes of a child, there is joy, there is laughter
    There is hope, there is trust, a chance to shape the future
    For the lessons of life, there is no better teacher
    Than the look in the eyes of a child

    In the eyes of a child, there is joy, there is laughter
    There is hope, there is trust, a chance to shape the future
    For the lessons of life, there is no better teacher
    Than the look in the eyes of a child

    Tja da da da da da da da da da

    Was ich erlebt hab' das kann nur ich erleben
    Ich bin ein Vagabund
    Selbst für die Fürsten soll's den grauen Alltag geben
    Meine Welt ist bunt
    Meine Welt ist bunt

    Tja da da da da da da da da da

    Denk' ich an Capri dann denk' ich auch an Tina
    Sie liebte einen Lord
    aber als sie mich sah die schöne Signorina
    lief sie ihm gleich fort
    Lief sie ihm gleich fort

    Tja da da da da da da da da da

    Kam ich nach Spanien dann schenkten mir die Wirte
    dort ohne Geld nichts ein
    Doch ihre Frau'n die ich am Tag spazieren führte
    schenkten mir den Wein
    schenkten mir den Wein

    Tja da da da da da da da da da

    So lachte mir und so lacht mir auch noch heute
    immer ein roter Mund
    Und es gibt keine Stunde die ich je bereute
    Meine Welt ist bunt
    meine Welt ist bunt

    Tja da da da da da da da da da

    Bin ein Vagabund

    Cat In The Window (The Bird In The Sky) Composer(s): Alan Gordon - Garry Bonner Performer(s): The Turtles



    Fly away, fly away
    There's a cat in the window
    And he's watching all the birds go passing by
    He'd love to fly out the window
    Go where the wind goes
    And so would I
    Like that cat in the window
    Who keeps wishing for some wings to take a ride
    I'd love to glide to a rainbow
    Off where the clouds go dancing by
    And if I could fly
    You wouldn't find me hangin' around
    Watching the birds go by

    Yes the cat in the window
    Has a tear in his eye
    I should leave today, fly away
    Why should I stay like the cat in the window
    Who keeps watching the birds
    Go by from the window
    If I could fly though
    You won't find me
    Don't even try to

    Folhetim
    Composer(s): Chico Buarque
    Performer(s): Chico Buarque;
    and various other artists



    Se acaso me quiseres
    Sou dessas mulheres
    Que só dizem sim
    Por uma coisa à toa
    Uma noitada boa
    Um cinema, um botequim

    E, se tiveres renda
    Aceito uma prenda
    Qualquer coisa assim
    Como uma pedra falsa
    Um sonho de valsa
    Ou um corte de cetim

    E eu te farei as vontades
    Direi meias verdades
    Sempre à meia luz
    E te farei, vaidoso, supor
    Que é o maior e que me possuis

    Mas na manhã seguinte
    Não conta até vinte
    Te afasta de mim
    Pois já não vales nada
    És página virada
    Descartada do meu folhetim

    The Express Office
    (Traditional)
    Performer(s): Paralee Weddington



    The express office opened
    When an old man worn in years
    Entered, an' his tear worn face
    Showed signs of grief an' tears
    And as the clerk approached him
    With trembling voice did say
    I'm looking for my boy, sir
    He's coming home today

    O, you have made a slight mistake
    For surely you must know
    This is an express office, sir
    An' not a town depot
    An' if your boy is coming home
    With smile the clerk did say
    You'll find him with the passengers
    At the station o'er the way

    You do not understand me, sir
    An' the old man shook his head
    He's not coming home as a passenger
    But by express instead
    He's coming home to Mother
    An' a tear fell as he said
    He's coming in his casket, sir
    He's coming to us dead

    Just then a whistle pierced his ear
    An express train, someone cried
    The ole man rose in breathless haste
    And quickly rushed outside
    An' from the coach a long white box
    Was lowered to the ground
    The scenes were most heart rendering
    To those who stood around

    Don't handle it so rough boys
    It contains our darling Jack
    He went away, as you boys know
    See how he's coming back
    He broke his dear old Mother's heart
    Her warning has come true
    She told him he'd be brought back dead
    When he joined the boys in Blue
