Nobody I Know Composer(s): John Lennon; Paul McCartney Performer(s): The Beatles; and various other artists
Nobody I know could love me more than you You can give me so much love it seems untrue Listen to the bird who sings it to the tree And then when you've heard him see if you agree Nobody I know could love you more than me
Everywhere I go the sun comes shinin' through Everyone I know is sure it shines for you Even in my dreams I look into your eyes Suddenly it seems I've found a paradise Everywhere I go the sun comes shinin' through
It means so much to be a part Of a heart of a wonderful one When other lovers are gone We'll live on We'll live on
Even in my dreams I look into your eyes Suddenly it seems I've found a paradise Everywhere I go the sun comes shinin' through
Nobody I know could love me more than you You can give me so much love it seems untrue Listen to the bird who sings it to the tree And then when you've heard him see if you agree Nobody I know could love you more than me Nobody I know could love you more than me
Nobody Falls Like A Fool Composer(s): Peter McCann; Mark Wright Performer(s): Earl Thomas Conley
A heart isn't blind It just sees what it wants to see I hope yours is lookin' at mine The way that you're lookin' at me Well I've been around I've taken chances before But this time I'm hopin' for more You're makin' it easy
Chorus: Nobody falls like a fool Nobody loves like a believe After so many dreams have fallen through It's time that one came true Nobody falls like a fool Nobody loves like a believer And I'm fallin' 'cause I believe in you
I know you're afraid Of the words we have spoken There's been so many promises made And so many broken Oh but please don't hold back I've already opened the door And this time I'm hopin' for more You're makin' it easy
Nobody Else In The World But You Composer(s): Don Henley; Jai Winding; Stan Lynch Performer(s): Don Henley
You live in a house of mirrors Reflecting your splendid isolation You have so much of everything Except for true consideration The way you dance The way you walk The way you drive The way you talk The way you eat The way you drink The way you act The way that you dont think
Its like theres Nobody else in the world but you Nobody else in the world Nobody else in the world but you In case you havent noticed Theres lots of other people here, too
Hey now, did your momma teach you anything? Some things still got to be respected Is it a sign of the times, or is it just your callous heart? How did you get so disconnected?
The way you push The way you shove The way you hate The way you love The lies you spin The scenes you make The grief you give The space you take Its like theres
Nobody else in the world but you Nobody else in the world Nobody else in the world but you In case you havent noticed Theres lots of other people here, too
And now its time you did a little giving, baby The world is not your plaything, no, no, no
(Solo)
Nobody else in the world but you Nobody else in the world Nobody else in the world but you In case you havent noticed Theres lots of other people here
Nobody else in the world but you Nobody else in the world Its like theres nobody else in the world but you In case you havent noticed there are lots of other people here, too
Nobody Else But Me Composer(s): Jerome Kern; Oscar Hammerstein II Performer(s): Jimmy Raney; and various other artists
I want to be no one but me I am in love with a lady who likes me the way I am I have my faults, she likes my faults I'm not very bright, she's not very bright
She thinks I'm grand, that's grand for me She may be wrong but if we get along "What do we care?", say we Walking on the shore, swimming in the sea When I am with her, I'm glad the boy who's with her Is nobody else but me
She thinks I'm grand, that's grand for me She may be wrong but if we get along "What do we care?", say we
Walking on the shore, swimming in the sea When I am with her, I'm glad the boy who's with her Is nobody else but me When I am with her, I'm glad the boy who's with her Is nobody else but me
Nobody Does It Like Me Composer(s): Cy Coleman; Dorothy Fields Performer(s): Shirley Bassey; Michele Lee; Martine McCutcheon
If there's a wrong way to do it A wrong way to play it Nobody does it like me If there's a wrong way to do it
A right way to screw it up Nobody does it like me I've got a big loud mouth
I'm always talking much to free If you go for tact and manners Better stay away from me If there's a wrong way to keep it cool A right way to be a fool Nobody does it like me I hear a love song or ballad
I toss like a salad Nobody tosses like me And when my evenings get tougher
I just take two bufferin' And drink a hot cup of tea Last night I met an old acquaintance At a fancy corner pub He said: Come on, let's have some supper So he used my credit-club If there's a wrong way to take a guy The worst way to make a guy Nobody does it like me If there's a wrong bell, I ring it
A wrong note, I sing it Nobody does it like me If there's a problem, I duck it
I don't solve it, I just muck it up Nobody does it like me As though I try to be a lady
I'm no lady, I'm a frog And when I talk like I'm a lady What I sound like is a frog If there's a wrong way to get a guy The right way to lose a guy Nobody does it like me Nobody does it
No, nobody does it Nobody does it like me Nobody does it like me
Nobody Does It Better Composer(s): Marvin Hamlisch; Carol Bayer Sager Performer(s): Carly Simon; and various other artists
Nobody does it better Makes me feel sad for the rest Nobody does it half as good as you Baby you're the best
I wasn't looking But somehow you found me I tried to hide from your love light But like heaven above me The spy who loved me Is keeping all my secrets safe tonight
And nobody does it better Though sometimes I wish someone could Nobody does it quite the way you do Why d'you have to be so good?
The way that you hold me, whenever you hold me There's some kind of magic inside you That keeps me from running But just keep it coming How d'you learn to do the things you do?
And nobody does it better Makes me feel sad for the rest Nobody does it half as good as you Baby baby Baby you're the best...
Nobody Cares If I'm Blue Composer(s): Harry Akst; Grant Clarke Performer(s): Leon Redbone - 1985; and various other artists
Nobody knows, nobody cares if I'm lonesome Nobody sighs, nobody cries if I'm blue
It seems that night after night I sit alone and twiddle my thumbs But still I keep right on hopin', keep the door open But nobody comes
Ain't it a crime, kisses of mine are just wasted Since I'm so blue, I'm singin' what'll I do, boo hoo Like a plaything on the shelf, guess I'll have to be by myself Nobody knows, nobody cares if I'm blue
Nobody knows, nobody cares if I'm lonesome Nobody sighs, nobody cries if I'm blue
I sit at home constantly My company is just the four walls But still I keep right on hopin', keep the door open But nobody calls
Ain't it a crime, kisses of mine are just wasted Since I'm so blue, I'm singin' what'll I do When it comes to happiness, guess I'll have to settle for less Nobody knows, nobody cares if I'm blue
When it comes to happiness Guess I'll have to settle for less Nobody knows, nobody cares if I'm blue
Nobody But Me Composer(s): Doc Pomus; Mort Shuman Performer(s): The Swinging Blue Jeans; The Drifters

Nobody Composer(s): Tom Johnston Performer(s): The Doobie Brothers
Evil ways of practice may surround you callin' on your inner core of life But your father was just a complex man of business and your mother merely portioned out your fright You're gonna run the risk of a sudden loss you got no mama to bear your cross beside you Uh-huh, uh-huh As midnight angels shine their wings and time begins just to build a wall all around you
Nobody, nobody gonna take my love away from me Nobody, nobody gonna take my love away from me
Settin' out on a voyage down to Jenner givin' all I've got to help the cause Need a place just to settle out my pressures a place where you and I can sit and pause So I can see the sky at night without a fear of a hidden light to blind me Mm-mm So you see the path is here and changes will be swayed around me
Nobody, nobody gonna take my love away from me Nobody, nobody gonna take my love away from me
Nobody, nobody gonna take my love away from me Nobody, nobody gonna take my love away from me
Nobody Composer(s): Kye Fleming; Dennis Morgan Performer(s): Sylvia
Sittin' in a restaurant She walked by I seemed to recall That certain look in your eye I said, "Who's that?" You said, with a smile "Aah, it's nobody" Aah, nobody
Maybe that explains the last two weeks You called me up, dead on your feet Working late again I asked who with You said, "Nobody" Aah, nobody
Well your nobody called today She hung up when I asked her name Well, I wonder Does she think she's being clever (Clever, ooh, ooh) You say nobody's after you The fact is what you say is true But I can love you like nobody can Even better
Late last night we went for a drive You were miles away I asked, "Who's on your mind?" You said, "Nobody, (nobody) Why do you ask" Oh, her again I could've told you that
We came back home Got ready for bed I said to myself I've got one shot left Your still mine and I won't stand in line Behind nobody Nobody
Well, your nobody called today She hung up when I asked her name Well, I wonder does she think she's being clever (Clever, ohh, ohh) You say nobody's after you The fact is what you say is true But I can love you like nobody can Even better
Well, your nobody called today She hung up when I asked her name Well, I wonder does she think she's being clever (Clever, ohh, ohh) You say nobody's after you The fact is what you say is true But I can love you like nobody can Even better...
Nobody Composer(s): Alex Rogers; Bert Williams; and various other artists
When life seems full of clouds and rain And I am full of nothin' and pain Who soothes my thumping, bumping brain, uummm? Nobody!
When winter comes with snow and sleet And me with hunger and cold feet Who says, "Here's twenty-five cents, go ahead and get somethin' to eat, go on why doncha"? Nobody!
I ain't never done nothin' to nobody I ain't never done nothin' to nobody, no time So until I get somethin' from somebody sometime I'll never do nothin' for nobody, no time
When I was in that railroad wreck And thought I'd cashed in my last check Who took the engine off my neck? Nobody!
One time when things was lookin' bright I started to whittle on a stick one night Who cried out, "Stop now, that's dynamite"? Not a soul!
I ain't never done nothin' to nobody I ain't never done nothin' to nobody, no time So until I get something from somebody, sometime I'll never do nothin' for nobody, no time
----------
As performed by Jimmy Dean:
When life seems full of clouds and rain And I am filled with nought but pain Who soothes my thumpin' bumpin' brain........ Nobody!
When winter comes with snow and sleet And me with hunger and cold feet Who says, "Here's two bits, go eat"........ Nobody!
I ain't never done nothin' to nobody And I ain't never got nothin' from nobody, no time And until I get somethin' from somebody sometime I don't intend to do nothin' for nobody, no time
When I'm tryin' hard and schemin' a plan To do the very best I can Who says, "Look at that handsome man"........ Nobody!
Well all day long things go amiss And I go home to find some bliss Who's waitin' there with a lovin' kiss........ Nobody!
I ain't never done nothin' to nobody And I ain't never got nothin' from nobody, no time And until I get somethin' from somebody sometime I don't intend to do nothin' for nobody, no time

No puede ser cobarde el que perdona a un amor que es malo y traicionero El amor es dolor cuando es sincero vergüenza no es llorar, vergüenza no es llorar porque te quiero
Toda mujer bonita será traidora porque al hombre valiente lo hace cobarde
Por su traición el alma quise arrancarle pero al tenerla cerca volví a besarle porque también bonita, porque también bonita era mi madre
Por su traición el alma quise arrancarle pero al tenerla cerca volví a besarle porque también bonita, porque también bonita era mi madre

They were a sinning That's exactly what I said And when God saw them sinning It hurt Him to his heart, it hurt Him so bad It made Him mad, it made Him so mad he was angry And when God got angry the sky turned dark And it was than that he told Noah to build the ark Who built the ark, Noah Who built the ark, Noah Who built the ark, Noah, Noah Noah built that ark Children stop to steel, listen to me God walked down by the Briny sea Beheld evil of the sinful men Declared that he would destroy the land Spoke to Noah Brother Noah stopped He said look a here Noah build me an ark Won't you build it big and strong Build it 300 cubic long, 30 high, about 50 wide I want it to stand my rain and tide On this day I make my mark In a 100 years I want that ark Knocking thru with this evil land Not a living thing is gonna stand Except the things that I tell to you That I gonna need , when the world is new I've been east and I've been west I decided to put this world at rest I've been up and I've been down Nothing but evil all around I've seen brother turn against brother Up this high and it'll go no further Women weep and children mourn Sorry the day that men was born Sinful people one by one Sorry the day my wrath begun Sorry the day my wrath begun Sorry the day my wrath begun Sorry the day my wrath begun 'Cause it's gonna rain 'Cause it's gonna rain 'Cause it's gonna rain 'Cause it's gonna rain And all this land is my land Not a living thing is gonna stand 'Cause it's gonna rain 'Cause it's gonna rain 'Cause it's gonna rain 'Cause it's gonna rain
Who built the ark? Noah. Yeah Who built the ark? Noah. Yeah Who built the ark? Noah Noah Noah built the ark When after God told him what to do Then the work began cut and hew Ringing o´ the hammer was "judgment" Ringing o´ the saw "God said repent" 100 years he hammered and sawed Building the ark by the grace of God After the foundation was laid Hewed down the timber and the ark was made Called in the animals two by two There was the Ox, the Camel and the Kangaroo Hallowed in the monkey and the crocodile He even made the animals they couldn't smile Packed them in the ark so tight The Owl couldn't get no sleep at night Called in Japheth and Shem and Ham God began to flood the land Raised his hand to heaven on high And knocked that sun and the moon from the sky Shook the mountains and disturbed the sea Hitched his reins to his Chariot Wheel Stepped on land and stood out on shore Declared this time couldn't be no more 'Cause it's gonna rain 'Cause its gonna rain 'Cause its gonna rain 'Cause its gonna rain
Noah Composer(s): Joe Raposo Performer(s): Frank Sinatra
The world's a tiny blue-green ark Afloat in darkest space. And every creature lives his time And knows his special place And each of us is Noah
With a life all in our care To keep against the darkness That's flooding everywhere
We've got to walk with the lion Soar with the eagle Sing with the nightingale And live in love and peace
The times have made us fearful And our fears have brought the tears The loneliness and darkness Have grown bitter with the years But a light is just beyond us and the children almost see A world that we've forgotten And the world they want to be
When we walk with the lion Soar with the eagle Sing with the nightingale And live in love and peace
The ark is getting crowded now And each of us must know When everything is finished here There's nowhere else to go The beasts are here to bless us And the faith is in their eyes That we can find the garden And see that sweet dawn rise
And we can walk with the lion Soar with the eagle Sing with the nightingale And live in love and peace
We've got to walk with the lion Soar with the eagle Sing with the nightingale And live in love and peace

I don't want my arms around you, no not much I don't bless the day I found you, no not much I don't need you like the stars don't need the sky I won't love you longer than the day I die
You don't please me when you squeeze me, no not much My heads the lightest from your very slightest touch Baby, if you ever go could I take it maybe so Ah but would I like it, no not much
Like a ten cent soda dosen't cost a dime I don't want you near me only all time
You don't thrill me when you hold me, no not much My brain gets hazy from your cool and crazy touch Baby if you ever go could I take it maybe so Oh but would I like it, no not much No not much
No, Non Mi Scorderò Mai English & French Titles: No, I Could Never Forget; Non, Je N'Ai Rien Oublié Composer(s): Calabrese; Charles Aznavour; Georges Garvarentz Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Non credevo più Di incontrarmi con te Ma la fatalità Predispone le cose E si rifà con te Dopo che ti ha deluso No, non mi scorderò mai Ti sorrido perché Sto accorgendomi che Se il tempo, quando può L'altra gente sfigura Non ha cambiato in te Che la pettinatura No, non mi scorderò mai Niente di te Sposarmi? Io? E con chi? Non diciamo eresie Amo la libertà E poi tra me e te Eran donne così Soltanto in parte mie Ma fermiamoci ad un bar E parlami di te Cosa fai? Come stau? Vivi sola... Perché? Sei divisa da lui... Ma come andò che andò male? Son sicuro che i tuoi Saran morti di bile No, non mi scorderò mai Che, non si paerché Il caso e niente più Ci mettesse di fronte E ti portasse a me Da un passato distante No, non mi scorderò mai Cosa dirti non so Il ricordo di noi Mi ha confuso le idee Fin dal primo minuto E io rivedo in te La guerra che ho perduto Non mi scorderò mai Niente di te L'amore era per me La mia unica arma Quando avevano i tuoi Ben altre velleità Contro cui grande o no Un amore disarma Et ti hanno data a chi Ti dava più di me Ti ho cercata, ma Tu, tu non uscivi mai Quante volte, non so Ti ho scritto ed aspettata Non hai risposto mai E vi ho rinunciato
No, non lo scorderò mai E' già tardi oramai Qui ci mandiamo via Ti accompagno se vuoi Mentre l'alba è in attesa Come al tempo remoto Dei baci sotto casa No, non lo scorderò mai Quel tempo era per noi Il tempo dell'amore Non temevamo mai Né inverno né autunno Era estate per noi Ogni giorno dell'anno No, non mi scorderò mai niente, niente di noi
Non sai quanto mi dà La tua sola presenza Non immagini più Il bene che mi fa Immergermi con te Nella mia adolescenza Risalire con te A tanto tempo fa Io vorrei... Se tu vuoi... Rivedermi con te... Non insisto... Però... Così... Se lo ritieni... Se ne hai voglia anche tu... Se non hai altri impegni... Se ti ricordi anche tu Come me, che non scorderò mai
No, I Could Never Forget French & Italian Titles: Non, Je N'Ai Rien Oublié; No, Non Mi Scorderò Mai Composer(s): Charles Aznavour; Georges Garvarentz; Morrison Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
I never really thought, wed ever meet again But faith deals out the hands we must take what it has chosen When in an idle glance you appeared, I was frozen No, I could never forget
I look upon your face, I cant believe my eyes Passing times often cruel, it fades youth like a flower But you have never changed, where the years but an hour? No, I could never forget, never forget
Married, me? Heavens no, Im still single, but happy To be free, unattached and between you and me better that than unmatched, though at times I feel lonely But enough about me, lets drink to you and life How have you been all these years? Are you happy and well? No? I guess I could tell and your marriage its ended Do your parents regret? Thats not what they intended No, I could never forget
Who could have ever known, without a single word that wed come face to face? Thered not been any reason I thought all things must die, as a time or a season No, I could never forget
I dont know what to say, its like some crazy dream the way the past returns, all my memories unbroken Yes, I remember too every word that was spoken No, I could never forget, never forget
Youth, a foolish age, we thought love was our treasure But your father said no you would marry someone with a position and name youd receive lifes full measure And he said with a smile, Im sure you understand? So, with love in our eyes, we exchanged love-goodbyes But your father was shrewd all my unanswered letters forced me soon to conclude things had worked for the better No, I could never forget
The hour is getting late, this place is closing down Come, yes come Ill walk you home through the streets dark and empty like in our foolish days of kisses stolen nightly No, I could never forget
Each season was for us a season for our love and we were not afraid as autumn turned to winter As long as theres youth, it is springtime forever No, no I could never forget, never forget
Its strange, the warmth I feel in these moments together Weve recaptured the time in the midst of our youth when two hearts were in line and were light as a feather But we both know the truth : we must live for today So, alas, if I may, if youd like me to stay? If this time we can share what the past was concealing If youre lonely and care, if you have the same feeling If, youre remembering yet all the things I could never forget
