The Smile I Live For
Composer(s): Christine McVie
Performer(s): Christine McVie



It took a lifetime to find you
And now I want you to stay
Oh, I don’t mind you can do anything
You can love me night and day

When you are there
Just to know you care
Brightens up a starless night
Your smile is all that I
That I live for
And I don’t know
What I did before

Your smile
Your smile
Makes it all worthwhile
Then you changed it around
Don’t let your little baby down
You were the only one
Thought I had you on the run
But now I guess it’s me
Begging you- begging you

When you are there
Just to know you care
Brightens up a starless night
Your smile is all that I
That I live for
And I don’t know
What I did before

Your smile
Your smile
Makes it all worthwhile
Then you changed it around
Don’t let your little baby down
You were the only one
Thought I had you on the run
But now I guess it’s me
Begging you- begging you

The Security Of Illusion  
Performer(s): Saga



Don't be fooled by what you see
I'm just an ordinary man
So many years I've sacrificed my needs
So give the gentleman a hand
I can make you look the other way
I know exactly what you'll see
It never ceases to amaze
What you're watching is my dreams
But oh if you want some more
All you have to do is ask
Oh you think you've seen it all
But I always save the best for last
I was alone until I learned
The security of illusion
I can't explain but you must observe
The security of illusion
But oh if you want some more
All you have to do is ask
Oh you think you've seen it all
But I always save the best for last
Now just look into my eyes
I've found the way
Through the confusion
That's why I've lived my life
Safe inside the security of illusion
The security of illusion
The security of illusion
The security of illusion
Oh if you want some more
All you have to do is ask
Oh you think you've seen it all
But I always save the best for last
Now just look into my eyes
I've found the way
Through the confusion
That's why I've lived my life
Safe inside the security of illusion
The security of illusion
The security of illusion
I was alone until I learned
The security of illusion
I've found a home and it's safe and sound
The security of illusion
I can't explain the security of...

Cod Liver Oil
Performer(s): Val Doonican



I'm a young married man and I'm tired of life
For years I've been married to a poor sickly wife
She does nothin' all day but to sit there and sigh
Wishin' and prayin' that she-ee could die

A friend from the village was talkin' one day
I told him me wife was a-fadin' away
He afterwards told me that she would get strong
If I got a bottle from old Doctor John

Well I bought her one bottle to give her good cheer
The way that she drank it you'd swear it was beer
I got her a second, and it went the same
I think she's got cod liver oil on the brain

Oh doctor, oh doctor, oh dear doctor John
Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong
I'm afraid of me life I'll go down in the soil
If me wife don't stop drinkin' your cod liver oil

Well it gave her good cheer and of that there's no doubt
Each week she got better and then she got stout
And as she got fatter of course she got strong
I think there's a devil in old Doctor John

There's bottles and bottles all over the house
But as she got strong I'm as quiet as a mouse
I've got to the stage if the kettle should boil
I'd swear it was singing of cod liver oil

Ribbons Of Blue
Composer(s): Keith Forsey
Performer(s): Boney M.



Ribbons of blue
Remind me of you
Ribbons of red
Are the way that my heart bled
Memories so clear
Are still ringing in my ears
So I wanna send to you
My ol' ribbons of blue

Ribbons of blue
Now remind me of you
Ribbons of red
Are the way that my heart bled
Memories so clear
Are still ringing in my ears
So I wanna send to you
My ol' ribbons of blue

Got me a ribbon
Bright blue ribbon for my hair
Made me a promise
Now I know he didn't care
Touched by his first kiss
Fooled by his first song
The way he led me along
With my ribbons undone

Ribbons of blue
Now remind me of you
Ribbons of red
Are the way that my heart bled
Memories so clear
Are still ringing in my ears
So I wanna send to you
My ol' ribbons of blue

Sad for me baby
So bad for me baby, oohh
Hard on me baby
So far from me baby, oohh

Ribbons of blue
Now remind me of you
Ribbons of red
Are the way that my heart bled
Memories so clear
Are still ringing in my ears
So I wanna send to you
My ol' ribbons of blue

Blue ribbon dreamer
Came with words that sounded right
Took me dancing
Held me close and
Held me tight
Fooled by his first kiss
Touched by his first song
The way he led me along
With my ribbons undone

Ribbons of blue
Now remind me of you
Ribbons of red
Are the way that my heart bled
Memories so clear
Are still ringing in my ears
So I wanna send to you
My ol' ribbons of blue

The Smile 
Composer(s): William Blake - Christopher Franke - Edgar Froese - Paul Haslinger
Performer(s): Tangerine Dream



There is a smile of love
And there is a smile of deceit
And there is a smile of smiles
In which these two smiles meet

And there is a frown of hate
And there is a frown of disdain
And there is a frown of frowns
Which you strive to forget in vain

For it sticks in the heart's deep core
And it sticks in the deep backbone
And no smile that ever was smiled
But only one smiles alone

That betwixt the cradle and grave
It only once smiled can be
But when it once is smiled
There's no end to misery

The Secrets That You Keep
Composer(s): Mike Chapman - Nicky Chinn
Performer(s): Mud



Oo-oo-oo-oo the secrets that you keep
I've only got myself to blame
I played a losing game
I lie awake and call your name
Our love is just a picture in a broken frame
It seemed so hard for me to share
It's even harder now that you're not there
(Now baby)
I'm losing sleep over the secrets that you keep
(Oh baby)
I'm losing sleep over the secrets that you keep
I lie awake at nights not knowing where you are
You know it don't seem right
That you could be so far away from me
Oh the secrets that you keep
Since you've been gone our worlds have grown apart
Now I don't know what's in your head or in your heart
Those little things you kept so secretly
Well they don't mean much to you now
But they mean so much to me
If you could give me just one more chance
I'm the fool who broke up our romance
We used to have so many plans
Then I went and let you slip right through my hands
I'll go searching till I find
A way to get you back and make you mine
(Until then)
I'm losing sleep over the secrets that you keep...

Coconuts 
Composer(s): Joan Baez
Performer(s): Joan Baez



Coconuts sitting in my hand 
Remindin' me of my island man 
And my island man sitting in his hut 
Dreamin' about my coconuts 

Coconuts floating in the sea 
I remember you, I remember me 
Coconuts dancing in the sand 
And I'm in love again with my island man 

Coconut milk is like a stream 
That comes from the mountain pure and clean 
And the man he comes to drink it up 
Never tires of the taste of those coconuts 

Coconuts floating in the sea 
I remember you, I remember me 
Coconuts dancing in the sand 
And I'm in love again with my island man 

Coconut flavor sweet and mild 
Remindin' me of my island child 
And my island child all grown up 
Out in the carnival of life jugglin' coconuts 

Coconuts floating in the sea 
I remember you, I remember me 
Coconuts dancing in the sand 
And I'm in love again with my island man

Ribbon Of Darkness
Composer(s): Gordon Lightfoot
Performer(s): Gordon Lightfoot;
and various other artists



Ribbon of darkness over me
Since my true love walked out the door
Tears I never had before
Ribbon of darkness over me

Clouds a-atherin' o'er my head
That kill the day and hide the sun
That shroud the night when day is done
Ribbon of darkness over me

Rain is falling on the meadow
Where once my love and I did lie
Now she is gone from the meadow
My love goodbye

Ribbon of darkness over me
Where once the world was young as spring
Where flowers did bloom and birds did sing
Ribbon of darkness over me

Here in this cold room lyin'
Don't want to see no one but you
Lord I wish I could be dyin'
To forget you

Oh how I wish your heart could see
How mine just aches and breaks all day
Come on home and take away
This ribbon of darkness over me

Covered by multiple other artists



The Sky Is Cryin’
Can you see the tears roll down the street
The Sky Is Cryin’
Can you see the tears roll down the street

I’ve been lookin’ for my baby
And I wonder where she can be
I saw may baby early one mornin’
She was walking on down the street

I saw may baby early this mornin’
She was walking on down the street
You known it hurt me… hurt me so bad
Made my poor heart skip a beat

I’ve got a real, real, real, real bad feelin’... that my baby she don’t love me no more
I’ve got a real, real, real bad feelin’... that my baby don’t love me no more
You know the sky... the sky’s been cryin’ yah
Can you see the tears roll down my nose

The Secret Language Of Birds
Composer(s): Ian Anderson
Performer(s): Ian Anderson



This sparkling wine is all but empty
Too late for trains and no taxis
I know the feeling 
Seems all too contrived
There was no master plan but the fact is
you must stay with me and learn the secret language of birds 
A tentative dawn about to be breaking 
on a Rousseau garden with monkeys in hiding
The truth of the matter, yet to be spoken 
in words on which everything, everything's riding 
Now stay with me and learn the secret language of birds 

Circled by swallows 
in a world for the weary
Courted by warblers; wicked and eloquent trilling

Lie in the stillness, window cracked open
Extended moments, hours for the taking
Careless hair on the pillow, a bold brushstroke 
Painted verse with a chorus in waiting
Stay with me and learn the secret language of birds

Oh so long for this night I prayed
That a star would guide you my way
To share with me this special day
Where a ribbon's in the sky for our love

If allowed may I touch your hand
And if pleased may I once again
So that you too will understand
There's a ribbon in the sky for our love

Do...Do...
Do Do Do Do Do...
Hmm Hmm...

This is not a coincidence
And far more than a lucky chance
But what is that was always meant
Is our ribbon in the sky for our love, love

We can't lose with God on our side
We'll find strength in each tear we cry
From now on it will be you and I 
And our ribbon in the sky 
Ribbon in the sky
A ribbon in the sky for our love

Do...Do...
Do Do Do Do Do...
Hmm Hmm...

There's a ribbon in the sky for our love

Riacho Do Navio
Composer(s): Luiz Gonzaga; Zé Dantas
Performer(s): Raimundo Fagner



Riacho do Navio corre pro Pajeú
O rio Pajeú vai despejar no São Francisco
O rio São Francisco vai bater no meio do mar
Se eu fosse um peixe
Ao contrário do rio
Nadava contra as águas e nesse desafio
Saía lá do mar, pro riacho do navio
Eu ia diretinho pro riacho do navio
Fazer o meu ranchinho
Fazer umas caçadas, vê as pegas de boi
Andar nas vaquejadas
Dormir ao som do cocalho
E acordar na passarada
Sem rádio e sem notícia
Das terras civilizadas
Meu amor não vá s’imbora
Fique mais um bocadinho
Se você for seu nêgo chora
Vamos ficar mais um tiquinho
Quando eu entro numa farra
Não quero sair mais não
Vou até quebra a barra
E pegar o sol com a mão

The Second Time Around
Composer(s): Sammy Cahn - Jimmy Van Heusen
First performance by: Bing Crosby - 1960
Covered by multiple other artists



Love is lovelier the second time around
Just as wonderful with both feet on the ground
It's that second time you hear your love song sung
Makes you think, perhaps, that love, like youth
is wasted on the young

Love's more comfortable the second time you fall
Like a friendly home, the second time you call
Who can say what brought us to this miracle we've found?
There are those who'll bet love comes but once, and yet
I'm oh so glad we met the second time around

Who can say what brought us to this miracle we've found?
There are those who'll bet love comes but once, and yet
I'm oh so glad we met the second time around

Cocktails For Two
Composer(s): Arthur Johnston - Sam Coslow
Performer(s): Carl Brisson
and multiple other artists



Oh what delight to be given the right
To be carefree and gay once again
No longer slinking, respectably drinking
Like civilized ladies and men
No longer need we miss
A charming scene like this....
In some secluded rendezvous
That overlooks the avenue
With someone sharing a delightful chat
Of this and that, and cocktails for two
As we enjoy a cigarette
To some exquisite chansonnette
Two hands are sure to slyly meet beneath
A serviette, with cocktails for two
My head may go reeling
But my heart will be obedient
With intoxicating kisses
For the principal ingredient
Most any afternoon at five
We'll be so glad we're both alive
Then maybe fortune will complete her plan
That all began with cocktails for two

Covered by multiple other artists

Versions In Other Languages:
1963 - Ritme Van De Regen (Rob de Nijs)
1963 - En Écoutant La Pluie (Richard Anthony)



Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain
telling me just what a fool I’ve been
I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain
and let me be alone again

The only girl I care about has gone away
looking for a brand new start
but little does she know that when she left that day
along with her she took my heart

Rain, please, tell me now, does that seem fair
for her to steal my heart away when she don’t care
I can’t love another when my heart’s somewhere far away

The only girl I care about has gone away
looking for a brand new start
but little does she know that when she left that day
along with her she took my heart

Falling rain
Cry in vain

But, rain, won’t you tell her that I love her so
Please, ask the sun to set her heart aglow
Rain in her heart, and let the love we knew start to grow

Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain
telling me just what a fool I’ve been
I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain
and let me be alone again

Falling rain
Falling rain
Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain
Falling rain
Listen to the rhythm of the
Listen to the rhythm of the
Cry in vain
Listen to the rhythm of the

The only girl I care about has gone away
looking for a brand new start
but little does she know that when she left that day
along with her she took my heart

Covered by multiple other artists



The second star to the right
Shines in the night for you
To tell you that the dreams you plan
Really can come true

The second star to the right
Shines with a light that's rare
And if it's Never Land you need
It's light will lead you there

Twinkle, twinkle little star
So I'll know where you are
Gleaming in the skies above
Lead me to the one who loves me

And when you bring him my way
Each time we say "Goodnight"
We'll thank the little star that shines
The second from the right

Puisque ce soir tu es fâchée
C'est bien toi qui l'a cherché
Dans l'alcool je veux me noyer
Je veux aussi
Barman! Un cocktail pour moi

Tu n'as pas honte de boire comme ça
Puisque tu bois pourquoi pas moi
Ta tête est plus dure que du bois
Et toi aussi
Barman! Un cocktail pour moi

Ma mère m'avait bien dit
Surtout méfie-toi de ce Johnny

Quand j'ai dit "j'épouse Sylvie"
Mes copains pleuraient
Je n'ai pas compris
Les filles mon dieu quelle invention
Quelle catastrophe pour les garçons
Ça me servira de leçon
À moi aussi
Barman! Un cocktail pour moi

Mais qui c'est celui-là
J'attends Johnny ne restez-pas là

Mais que faites-vous ici
Laissez cette place
Moi j'attends Sylvie

Tiens quelle surprise que fais-tu là
Un hasard je passais par là
On prend un verre pour fêter ça
Tu crois?
Je crois!
Barman! Un cocktail pour deux
