    Loneliness is the cloak you wear
    A deep shade of blue is always there
    The sun ain't gonna shine anymore
    The moon ain't gonna rise in the sky
    The tears are always clouding your eyes
    When you're without love... ba-a-a-a-by

    Emptiness is the place you're in
    Nothing to lose but no more to win
    The sun ain't gonna shine anymore
    The moon ain't gonna rise in the sky
    The tears are always clouding your eyes
    When you're without love

    Lonely, without you, baby
    Girl, I need you
    I can't go o-o-o-o-on

    The sun ain't gonna shine anymore
    The sun ain't gonna shine anymore
    The moon ain't gonna rise in the sky
    The moon ain't gonna rise in the sky
    The tears are always clouding your eyes
    The tears are always clouding your eyes
    (Sun ain't gonna shine anymore)
    When you're without love... ba-a-a-a-by

    The sun ain't gonna shine anymore
    The sun ain't gonna shine anymore
    The sun ain't gonna shine anymore
    The sun ain't gonna shine anymore...

    and multiple other artists



    Sunlight dances on the sea
    Tender thoughts occur to me
    I have often seen your eyes
    In the nighttime when I dream
    When I pass a garden fair
    And the scent is in the air
    In my mind a dream awakes
    And my heart begins to break
    But you said goodbye to me
    Now all I can do is grieve
    Can it be that you forgot?
    Darling forget me not!
    Please don't say farewell
    And leave this heart that's broken
    Come back to Sorrento
    So I can mend

    Ringard Pour Le Reggae
    Composer(s): Bernard Lavilliers
    Performer(s): Bernard Lavilliers



    Tu voudrais hurler mais t'es queen
    Tu voudrais être in t'es has been
    Tu voudrais mordre mais tu lèches
    Tu voudrais déchirer mais tu caresses
    Tu voudrais cogner mais tu mouilles
    Tu voudrais dénoncer tu magouilles
    Tu voudrais t'éclater mais la mèche est mouillée

    T'es un ringard pour le reggae
    T'es un zonard qu'a des papiers
    T'es un loubard des beaux quartiers
    Rock and roll et parfum anglais

    Tu voudrais vivre tu fonctionnes
    Tu voudrais suivre tu t'cramponnes
    Tu voudrais aimer tu adores
    Tu voudrais dévorer tu picores
    Tu voudrais être Cream and the Square
    Tu voudrais Marylin mais c'est trop cher
    Tu voudrais des pavés mais tout est moquetté

    Y a des patins dans les idées
    Y a des strass sur tes croix gammées
    T'es un kid de l'avenue Mozart
    Un hell's angel d'la rue Mouffetard

    T'es un ringard pour le reggae
    T'es un zonard qu'a des papiers
    T'es un loubard des beaux quartiers
    Rock and roll et parfum anglais

    Ich bau dir ein Schloss, so wie im Märchen
    Da wohn ich mit dir, dann ganz allein
    Ich bau dir ein Schloss, wenn ich einst gross bin
    da kannst du dort wohn und glücklich sein

    Der blaue Himmel schaut auf uns herab
    sagt dir jeden Tag, wie lieb ich Dich hab
    Und alle Wolken zieh'n so schnell vorbei
    am Traumschloss für uns zwei

    Ich bau dir ein Schloss, du wirst schon sehen
    bald bin ich schon gross, dann zieh'n wir ein
    Wo Blumen für Dich im Garten stehen
    da wird jeder Tag ein Sonntag sein

    Der blaue Himmel schaut auf uns herab
    sagt dir jeden Tag, wie lieb ich Dich hab
    Und alle Wolken zieh'n so schnell vorbei
    am Traumschloss für uns zwei
    am Traumschloss für uns zwei

    Well, don't cry my baby
    Don't you cry all the while
    Don't cry my baby
    Just give me a smile
    Seen my daddy die in the war
    Seen my mama a-die crying for him

    Ring, ring
    Well, I've got to sing
    Ring, ring
    Well, I've got to sing
    De dam dadda de day …….

    They call me a hounddog
    They call me a liar
    It's all 'cause of my colour
    They want me to hide
    They're talking about freedom
    Of religion and race
    But if you are a negro
    They slap you in the face
    So what are you fighting for
    They send 'm off to sea
    Well, I couldn't stand more words
    I'm gonna stop free
    Well, I'm still happy
    So don't cry my babe
    Together we'll just try for
    Being free people some day

    Composer(s): Bob Crewe - Bob Gaudio - Richard Anthony
    Performer(s): Richard Anthony - 1966



    Je n'ai plus que des jours sans joie
    Des matins brumeux où tout est froid

    Le soleil ne brille plus dans le ciel
    La lune a perdu tout son éclat
    La vie est monotone et sans joie
    Quand on est sans amour

    Pourquoi?

    La tristesse ne me quitte pas
    Y a plus d'espoir quand l'amour s'en va

    Le soleil ne brille plus dans le ciel
    La lune a perdu tout son éclat
    La vie est monotone et sans joie
    Quand on est sans amour

    Si seul dans les rues vides
    J'ai besoin de toi, reviens vers moi

    Le soleil ne brille plus dans le ciel
    La lune a perdu tout son éclat
    La vie est monotone et sans joie
    Le soleil ne brille plus dans le ciel
    Quand on est sans amour

    Pourquoi?

    Le soleil ne brille plus dans le ciel
    Le soleil ne brille plus dans le ciel
    Le soleil ne brille plus dans le ciel
    Le soleil ne brille plus dans le ciel

    Come Back To Playland With Me
    Composer(s): Maud Lambert



    The lovelight is bright in your eye, dear
    Mem'ries are bringing you joy
    I know you are thinking of childhood
    The land of the girl and the boy
    Come let's have day dreams together
    Wander once more hand in hand
    Back to those days with their boy and girl ways
    Playmates in dear old Playland

    Let's visit the old fashioned haunts, dear
    Travel on memories train
    And soon we'll be strolling through childhood
    Our hearts will be glad once again
    Let's linger long o'er each fancy
    Each one will bring joy and sublime
    Each passing year will enfold charms so dear
    Playmates at dear old Playtime

    Playland, Playland
    Land of nursery rhymes
    Boys and girls in golden curls
    "Ring a rosey" times
    Childish games we played, dear
    When our hearts were free
    Mem'ries embraces will bring old faces
    So come back to Playland with me

    I was sitting by the phone
    I was waiting all alone
    Baby by myself I sit and wait and wonder about you
    It's a dark and dreary night
    Seems like nothing's going right
    Won't you tell me honey how can I go on here without you?

    Yes I'm down and feeling blue
    And I don't know what to do, oh-oh

    Ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
    Ring, ring, the happiest sound of them all
    Ring, ring, I stare at the phone on the wall
    And I sit all alone impatiently
    Won't you please understand the need in me
    So, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
    So, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?

    You were here and now you're gone
    Hey did I do something wrong?
    I just can't believe that I could be so badly mistaken
    Was it me or was it you?
    Tell me, are we really through?
    Won't you hear me cry and you will know that my heart is breaking

    Please forgive and then forget
    Or maybe darling better yet, oh-oh

    Ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
    Ring, ring, the happiest sound of them all
    Ring, ring, I stare at the phone on the wall
    And I sit all alone impatiently
    Won't you please understand the need in me
    So, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
    So, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
    Oh-oh, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
    So, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?

    In The Summer Of His Years
    Composer(s): David Lee - Herbert Kretzmer
    Performer(s): Connie Francis; Millicent Martin



    A young man rode with his head held high
    Under the Texas sun
    And no one guessed
    That a man so blessed
    Would perish by the gun
    Lord, would perish by the gun

    A shot rang out like a Southern shout
    And Heaven held its breath
    For a man shot down
    In a Southern town
    In the summer of his years
    Yes, the summer of his years

    And we who stay mustn't ever lose
    The victories that he's won
    For wherever "man" looks to Freedom's past
    His soul goes riding on
    Lord, his soul goes riding on!

    Come Back To Arizona
    Composer(s): Alfred Bryan; Herman Paley



    Arizona, wild and free you're always dear to me
    I love you true
    Sun kissed meadows of the west
    the one I love the best she loves you too
    But my heart is sad today
    my heart is far away
    I'm all alone can't you hear me calling you
    Oh! won't you come back home?

    When the sunset fades away each night
    alone I stay with aching heart
    And the night winds seem to sigh
    "Why did you say goodbye why did we part?"
    Tho' the town is gay tonight and lights are burning bright I'm feeling blue
    Waiting hearts grow weary dear but mine will wait for you

    Come back to Arizona where the skies are blue
    Come back where you can own a heart that waits for you, so lonely
    Come little girl put my love to the test
    come to the best little nest in the west
    Come back to Arizona
    I love you

    Love is a burning thing
    And it makes a fiery ring
    Bound by wild desire
    I fell in to a ring of fire...

    I fell in to a burning ring of fire
    I went down, down, down
    And the flames went higher
    And it burns, burns, burns
    The ring of fire, the ring of fire

    The taste of love is sweet
    When hearts like ours meet
    I fell for you like a child
    Oh, but the fire went wild...

    I fell in to a burning ring of fire
    I went down, down, down
    And the flames went higher
    And it burns, burns, burns
    The ring of fire, the ring of fire

    The Streak
    Composer(s): Ray Stevens
    Performer(s): Ray Stevens



    Hello everybody, this is your action news reporter
    With all the news that is news across the nation
    On the scene at the super market
    There seems to have been some disturbance here
    Pardon me sir, did you see what happened?
    Yeh, I did... I was standing over there by the tomatoes
    And here he come
    Running thru the pole beans, thru the fruits and vegetables
    Naked as a jay-bird
    And I hollered over at Ethel... I said don't look Ethel
    It was too late, she'd already been incensed...

    Here he comes, boogie-dy, boogie-dy
    There he goes, boogie-dy, boogie-dy
    And he ain't wearin' no clothes
    Oh yes, they call him the streak
    Fastest thing on two feet
    He's just as proud as he can be
    Of his anatomy
    He's gonna give us a peek
    Oh yes, they call him the streak
    He likes to show off his physique
    If there's an audience to be found
    He'll be streakin' around
    Invitin' public critique...

    This is your action news reporter once again
    And we're here at the gas station
    Pardon me sir, did you see what happened?
    Yeh, I did... I was just in here gettin' my tires checked
    And he just appeared out of the traffic
    Come streakin' around the grease rack there
    Didn't have nothing on but a smile
    I looked in there and Ethel was gettin' her a cold drink
    I hollered... Don't look Ethel
    It was too late... She'd already been mooned
    Flashed her right there in front of the shock absorbers

    He ain't rude, boogie-dy, boogie-dy
    He ain't lewd, boogie-dy, boogie-dy
    He's just in the mood to run in the nude
    Oh yes, they call him the streak
    He likes to turn the other cheek
    He's always making the news
    Wearin' just his tennis shoes
    Guess you could call him unique...

    Once again, your action news reporter in the booth at the gym
    Covering the disturbance at the basketball playoffs
    Pardon me sir, did you see what happened?
    Yeh, I did... half-time, I was just going down there
    To get Ethel a snow cone
    Here he come right our of the cheap seats
    Dribblin'... right down the middle of the court
    Didn't have on nothin' but his PF's
    Made a hook shot and got out thru the concession stand
    I hollered up at Ethel, I said don't look Ethel
    It was too late... She'd already got a free shot
    Grandstanded... Right there in front of the home team

    Here he comes... look... who's that with him?
    Ethel, is that you, Ethel?
    What do you think you're doing?
    You get your clothes on!

    Ethel, where you going?
    Ethel, you shameless hussy
    Say it isn't so Ethel
    Ethel...

    Come Back Paddy Reilly To Ballyjamesduff
    Composer(s): William Percy French
    Performer(s): Daniel O'Donnell
    and various other artists



    The Garden of Eden has vanished, they say
    But I know the lie of it still
    Just turn to the left at the bridge of Finea
    And stop when halfway to Cootehill.
    'Tis there I will find it
    I know sure enough
    When fortune has come to me call
    Oh the grass it is green around Ballyjamesduff
    And the blue sky is over it all
    And tones that are tender and tones that are gruff
    Are whispering over the sea
    "Come back, Paddy Reilly to Ballyjamesduff
    Come home, Paddy Reilly, to me"

    My mother once told me that when I was born
    The day that I first saw the light
    I looked down the street on that very first morn
    And gave a great crow of delight
    Now most newborn babies appear in a huff
    And start with a sorrowful squall
    But I knew I was born in Ballyjamesduff
    And that's why I smiled on them all
    The baby's a man, now he's toil-worn and tough
    Still, whispers come over the sea
    "Come back, Paddy Reilly to Ballyjamesduff
    Come home, Paddy Reilly, to me"

    The night that we danced by the light of the moon
    Wid Phil to the fore wid his flute
    When Phil threw his lip over "Come Again Soon"
    He's dance the foot out o' yer boot!
    The day that I took long Magee by the scruff
    For slanderin' Rosie Kilrain
    Then, marchin' him straight out of Ballyjamesduff
    Assisted him into a drain
    Oh, sweet are the dreams, as the dudeen I puff
    Of whisperings over the sea
    "Come back, Paddy Reilly to Ballyjamesduff
    Come home, Paddy Reilly, to me"

    I've loved the young women of every land
    That always came easy to me
    Just barrin' the belles of the Black-a-moor brand
    And the chocolate shapes of Feegee
    But that sort of love is a moonshiny stuff
    And never will addle me brain
    For the bells will be ringin' in Ballyjamesduff
    For me and me Rosie Kilrain!
    And through all their glamour, their gas and their guff
    A whisper comes over the sea
    "Come back, Paddy Reilly to Ballyjamesduff
    Come home, Paddy Reilly, to me"

    I've struck oil at last!
    I've struck work, and I vow
    I've struck some remarkable clothes
    I've struck a policeman for sayin' that now
    I'd go back to my beautiful Rose
    The belles they may blarney
    the boys they may bluff
    But this I will always maintain
    No place in the world like Ballyjamesduff
    No guril (sic) like Rosie Kilrain
    I've paid for my passage, the sea may be rough
    But borne on each breeze there will be
    "Come back, Paddy Reilly to Ballyjamesduff
    Come home, Paddy Reilly, to me"

    Ring Of Clover
    Performer(s): The Whites



    Across a field of memories
    rest upon a yellow page
    there among the flowers
    it seems like only yesterday

    We made a ring
    ring of clover
    Made a vow
    to love no other
    Diamonds I
    would never trade
    for the ring of clover that we made

    Gone a sweet tomorrow
    taking on the winds of change
    Still we will remember
    the love we promised on that day

    We made a ring
    ring of clover
    Made a vow
    to love no other
    Diamonds I
    would never trade
    for the ring of clover that we made

    We made a ring
    ring of clover
    Made a vow
    to love no other
    Diamonds I
    would never trade
    for the ring of clover that we made

    Diamonds I
    would never trade
    for the ring of clover that we made

    Mmmmmm...

    The Strawberry Roan
    Composer(s): Curley Fletcher - Fred Howard - Nat Vincent
    Performer(s): Bill Boyd & His Cowboy Wranglers
    and multiple other artists



    I was hanging round town, just spending my time
    Being out of a job and not earning a dime
    A fellow walks up, and he says, "I suppose
    You're a bronc rider, from the looks of your clothes"

    "Well, you figured me right, and I'm a good one, I claim
    Would you happen to have any outlaws to tame?"
    He says, "I've got one and a good one to buck
    At throwing top riders he's had lots of luck"

    He says this here's one pony that's never been rode
    And the man that gets on him is bound to get throwed
    I got all het up and I asked what he'd pay
    To ride this old nag for a couple of days

    Well, he offered me ten, and I says, "I'm your man
    For the bronc isn't living that I couldn't fan"
    He says, "Get your saddle, I'll give you the chance"
    So we hopped in his buckboard and rode to his ranch

    Out in the horse corral, standing alone
    Is an old cavallo, a strawberry roan
    Little pin ears that touch at the tip
    A big 44 brand upon his left hip

    He was spavined all round, and he had pigeon toes
    Little pig eyes, and a big roman nose
    U-necked and old, with a long lower jaw
    You could tell at a glance he's a regular outlaw

    Well, I buckle on my spurs, and I'm sure feeling fine
    I pull down my hat and I pick up my twine
    Throw my loop on him, and well I know then
    Before he gets rode, I'll sure earn my ten

    I get the blinds on him with a terrible fight
    Next comes the saddle, and I cinch him up tight
    Then I step on him and raise up the blinds
    "Get out of the way, boys, he's bound to unwind!"

    Well, I threw him his head, and I'll say he unwound
    He seemed to quit living down here on the ground
    Went up in the east and come down in the west
    I'm sitting up on him and doing my best

    He sure was a frog-walker, he heaved a big sigh
    He only lacked wings for to be on the fly
    Turned his old belly right up to the sun
    He sure was a sunfishing son of a gun

    He's about the worst bucker I've seen on the range
    He could turn on a nickle and give you some change
    I lost both my stirrups and also my hat
    I'm reaching for leather and blind as a bat

    He come down on all fours, and he went up on high
    And he left me a-spinning up there in the sky
    Turned over twice and I come down to the earth
    And I lit into cussing the day of his birth

    Now I know there's ponies that I cannot ride
    There's some of them living, they haven't all died
    But I'll bet my money there's no man alive
    Who can stay with old Strawberry when he makes his high dive

    Ring My Bell
    Composer(s): Frederick Knight
    Performer(s): Anita Ward



    I'm glad you're home
    Well, did you really miss me?
    I guess you did by the look in your eye (look in your eye, look in your eye)
    Well lay back and relax while I put away the dishes
    Then you and me can rock a bell

    You can ring my be-e-ell, ring my bell
    You can ring my be-e-ell, ring my bell
    You can ring my be-e-ell, ring my bell
    You can ring my be-e-ell, ring my bell

    The night is young and full of possibilities
    Well come on and let yourself be free
    My love for you, so long I've been savin'
    Tonight was made for me and you

    You can ring my be-e-ell, ring my bell (ring my bell, ding-dong-ding)
    You can ring my be-e-ell, ring my bell (ring my bell, ring-a-ling-a-ling)
    You can ring my be-e-ell, ring my bell (ring my bell, ding-dong-ding)
    You can ring my be-e-ell, ring my bell (ring my bell, ring-a-ling-a-ling)

    (you can ring my bell, you can ring my bell
    ding, dong, ding, ah-ah, ring it!
    you can ring my bell, anytime, anywhere
    ring it, ring it, ring it, ring it, oww!
    you can ring my bell, you can ring my bell
    ding, dong, ding, ah-ah, ring it!
    you can ring my bell, anytime, anywhere
    ring it, ring it, ring it, ring it, oww!)

    You can ring my be-e-ell, ring my bell (ring my bell, ding-dong-ding)
    You can ring my be-e-ell, ring my bell (ring my bell, ring-a-ling-a-ling)
    You can ring my be-e-ell, ring my bell (ring my bell, ding-dong-ding)
    You can ring my be-e-ell, ring my bell (ring my bell, ring-a-ling-a-ling)

    The Stranger (Two Souls In Communion)
    Composer(s): Ron "Pigpen" McKernan
    Performer(s): Grateful Dead



    What are they seeing, when they look in each other's eyes?
    What are they feeling, when they see each other's smile?
    Is it a love I've never known - or an emotion that I've outgrown?

    Did I take a wrong turning on life's winding road?
    Won't somebody help me find the right way to go?
    My life need some correction, alteration in direction
    Won't somebody comfort me for a while - yes, I'm lost

    What is the secret of this tie that binds?
    Two souls in communion, both body and mind
    Is it special magic, or just the nature of things?
    Conceived of great spirit, not for beggars but kings

    You who have found it, please help me along
    I'm a man, I'm a man, - I'm not made out of stone
    My needs they are simple, I don't want many things
    But I truly want to fly on those wings of love one more time

    That's all I need (fly up, fly home)
    I want to fly on them wings (fly up, fly home)
    I want to fly on them wings of love (fly up, fly home)
    I'm a stranger here (fly up, fly home)
    Won't somebody help me now (fly up, fly home)
    I wake up early in the morning (fly up, fly home)
    you know I never saw you babe (fly up, fly home)
    I just can't seem to understand
    Can't seem to understand what's wrong (fly up, fly home)
    What I wanna do is take a little ride with you, on the wings of love
    Woh-oh one more time, one more time

    Come Back Little Sheba
    Composer(s): Lenny Kaye; Patti Smith
    Performer(s): Patti Smith



    Come back little Sheba
    I hear them calling
    Open your ears
    Awake from thy sleep
    High above
    The stars are falling
    Open your arms
    And you shall receive

    The lights of the city
    So bold and flashing
    All of its riches
    Imparted to thee
    Robes of saffron
    Robes of standing
    A road of crimson
    Spread at your feet

    Your robes of standing
    Your robes of saffron
    Your road of crimson
    All pleasing to me
    But close your lights
    Close your gates
    I must arise
    My flock awaits

    Farewell little Sheba
    I hear them a'calling
    Here is your staff
    Tend to thy sheep
    Good wishes be with you
    If that be your calling
    Farewell little Sheba
    Arise and take leave
