Time is on my side, yes, it is
Time is on my side, yes, it is
Now you were saying that you want to be free 
But you'll come running back; you'll come running back
You'll come running back to me

Time is on my side, yes, it is
Time is on my side, yes, it is
You're searching for good times but just wait and see
You'll come running back; you'll come running back
You'll come running back to me 

Go ahead, go ahead and light up the town! 
Baby do everything your heart desires 
Remember, I'll always be around
And I know like I told you so many times before 
you're gonna come back, baby...
you're gonna come back knocking right on my door

Time is on my side, yes, it is
Time is on my side, yes, it is
'Cause I got the real love, the kind that you need
You'll come running back, you'll come running back
you'll come running back to me

Time, time, time is on my side, yes, it is
Time, time, time is on my side, yes, it is (repeat)...

I don't believe in superstars
organic food and foreign cars
I don't believe the price of gold
the certainty of growing old
that right is right and left is wrong
that north and south can't get along
that east is east and west is west
and being first is always best

But I believe in love, I believe in babies
I believe in mom and dad, and I believe in you

Well I don't believe that heaven waits
for only those who congregate
I like to think of God as love
He's down below, He's up above
He's watching people everywhere
He knows who dies and doesn't care
and I'm an ordinary man
sometimes I wonder who I am

But I believe in love, I believe in music
I believe in magic, and I believe in you

I know with all my certainty what's goin'
with you and me is a good thing
it's true, I believe in you

I don't believe virginity is
as common as it used to be
in working days and sleeping nights
that black is black and white is white
that Superman and Robin Hood
are still alive in Hollywood
that gasoline's in short supply
the rising cost of getting by

But I believe in love, I believe in old folks
I believe in children, I believe in you

I believe in love, I believe in babies
I believe in mom and dad, and I believe in you

Je Suis Content, Ça Marche
Composer(s): Jean-Jacques Vital;
Serge Veber; Bruno Coquatrix
Performer(s): Bourvil



Dès ma première apparition en ce monde
Je surpris des observations à la ronde
«Il est marrant»
dit grand maman
«Il est tout mou»
dit ma nounou
«Quelle gueule qu'il a»
dit mon papa
Je n'ai jamais vu ça
Mais tout guilleret
Je répondais 
«Je suis content, je suis content, ça marche»
Dès qu'on me voit
On parle de moi 
«Je suis content, je suis content, ça marche»
Je suis une personnalité
Déjà dès ma première tétée
Tout en tétant
J'allais chantant 
«Je suis content, je suis content, ça marche»
Et bien sûr depuis, j'ai grandi
C'est logique
Et je sais toujours ce qu'on dit
D'mon physique 
«Quels drôles de ch'veux»
dit un monsieur
«Quelles drôles de dents»
fait un quidam
«A quelle binette»
Pense une brunette
C'est fou c'qu'il a l'air bête
Mais moi je m'dis
Charmer la vie 
«Je suis content, je suis content, ça marche»
Si j'n'avais pas
Cette binette là
Je ne pourrais sans doute pas dire 
«ça marche»
Et au lieu de v'nir là à l'oeil
J'payrais deux cent balles mon fauteuil
Pour n'voir dans l'fond
Qu'un pauv' couillon 
«Je suis content, je suis content, ça marche»
Même si ça ne tourne pas rond
Si vous vous sentez le bourdon
Répétez donc
Sur tous les tons 
«Je suis content, je suis content, ça marche»

Een Moment

Performer(s): Severine Doré - 2003



Als ik een moment kon bewaren
Dan koos ik voor dit hier met jou
En liet dat moment dan een eeuwigheid duren
Waarin er ons niks meer weerhoudt

Als ik een moment kon behouden
Een herinnering die niet vervaagt
Dan koos ik het ogenblik waarop je plots bij me bent
En me in je hart draagt

Maar men heeft niet langer tijd genoeg
Om zichzelf te zijn, om te dromen, om te leven
En daarom wil ik graag een moment
Dat je bij me bent voor altijd met je delen

En als ik een kist had voor wensen
Voor dromen die werden verguld
Dan was ze vast leeg op dat ene moment na
M’n wereld in de liefde gehuld

Maar men heeft niet langer tijd genoeg
Om zichzelf te zijn, om te dromen, om te leven
En daarom wil ik graag een moment
Dat je bij me bent voor altijd met je delen

I Believe In Happy Endings
Composer(s): Neil Diamond
Performer(s): Neil Diamond



I believe in happy endings 
Starry skies and dreams come true 
I've believed it since I first met you

I believe in new beginnings 
Extra innings, brand new starts
Loving hearts that care the way I do
All these things and happy endings too

Sad songs bring me right down with the blues 
Glad songs take me wherever I choose 
And I choose to be there 
So that I 
Can declare why

I believe in happy endings 
You're the reason, love's the way
And I'll believe it till my dying day

I know the cost of tears and trouble 
Some get lost, some make it through 
Me, I made it, 'cause I always knew 
That you believed in happy endings too

Sad songs bring me right down with the blues 
Glad songs take me wherever I choose 
And I choose to be there 
So that I 
Can declare

I know the cost of tears and trouble 
I got lost, but I got through 
And I made it, 'cause I always knew 
That you believed in happy endings too 
You and me and happy endings too

Time In A Bottle
((Dutch Version: Een Moment (Severine Doré) - 2003))
Composer(s): Jim Croce 
First release by: Jim Croce - 1972
Covered by multiple other artists



If I could save time in a bottle 
The first thing that I'd like to do 
Is to save every day 
'Til eternity passes away 
Just to spend them with you

If I could make days last forever 
If words could make wishes come true 
I'd save every day like a treasure and then
Again, I would spend them with you

But there never seems to be enough time 
To do the things you want to do 
Once you find them 
I've looked around enough to know 
That you're the one I want to go 
Through time with

If I had a box just for wishes 
And dreams that had never come true 
The box would be empty 
Except for the memory 
Of how they were answered by you 

But there never seems to be enough time 
To do the things you want to do 
Once you find them 
I've looked around enough to know 
That you're the one I want to go 
Through time with... 

I Believe In Everything
Composer(s): John Entwistle
Performer(s): John Entwistle; Coal Bin Bros.



Have you ever had the feeling that you've been this place before
But you haven't, not in this life
You've seen it, you've done it, you've heard it all before
But you haven't, not in this life

Do you believe in Santa Claus and loving at first sight
I hope you do, 'cause I do
Do you believe in ghosts that rattle chains at dead of night
I hope you do, 'cause I do

'Cause I believe in everything
'Cause that's the simplest way for me to be
I believe in everything
To believe in everything you hear and see 

'Cause I believe in everything
'Cause that's the simplest way for me to be
I believe in everything
To believe in everything you hear and see

Have you ever had the feeling that you've been this place before
But you haven't, not in this life
You've seen it, you've done it, you've heard it all before
But you haven't, not in this life

Do you believe in witchcraft, Heaven and Hell, King Kong
Reincarnation, fairies at the bottom of the garden
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, goblins, ghouls and witches
Things that go bump in the night
Telepathy, eternal youth, Mickey Mouse, Father Christmas

Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer
Had a very shiny nose
And if you ever saw it you would even say it glows
All of the other reindeer used to laugh and call him names...

Je Suis À Toi
Composer(s): Julien Bouquet
Performer(s): Edith Piaf



Un matin le printemps est sorti
De son lit pour aller faire la vie
Et pour repeindre en bleu tout le gris
Qui traînait sur les murs de Paris
Du gris, il y en avait dans ma vie
Mais ce jour-là, mais ce jour-là
D'un seul coup, tout fut repeint en bleu
Le ciel et les yeux des amoureux
Du coup, pour le Pont-Neuf et la Seine
Ce fut l'heure pour eux d'entrer en scène
Sur ce pont, nous nous sommes croisés
Moi, ce jour là j'allais tout droit
Droit devant moi, vers je ne sais quoi...
Rappelle-toi...

Des jonquilles, 'y en a eu par milliers
On savait où aller les chercher
Qu'ils sont chauds, les prés au mois de mai
Qu'ils sont hauts, les blés au temps d'aimer
Qu'ils sont beaux, les mots que tu disais
"Je suis à toi... 
Je suis à toi"
Ces mots-là, on ne s'en lasse jamais
Ils sont faits, semble-t-il, pour durer
J'aimais t'entendre les murmurer
D'autant plus que pour moi ils semblaient vrais
Pour moi-même, ne t'ai-je pas crié 
"Je suis à toi... 
Je suis à toi
Mais garde-moi et serre-moi tout contre toi..."

Un matin, l'été a fichu le camp
En laissant en souvenir du printemps
Des feuilles qui virevoltent au vent
D'un automne qui ne prend pas de gants
Pour venir me dire à bout portant
"Je suis à toi..."
Aujourd'hui, les beaux jours sont sortis
C'est fini, ils ont quitté Paris
L'hiver va revenir mettre en gris
Tout le bleu que notre amour y avait mis
Du gris, mon Dieu, qu'y en a dans ma vie
Je suis à toi... 
Je suis à toi...
Mais reviens-moi comme autrefois...
...Je suis à toi...

Time Has Told Me
Composer(s): Nick Drake
First release by: Nick Drake - 1969
Covered by multiple other artists



Time has told me
You're a rare rare find
A troubled cure
For a troubled mind

And time has told me
Not to ask for more
Someday our ocean
will find its shore

So I'll leave the ways that are making me be
What I really don't want to be
Leave the ways that are making me love
What I really don't want to love

Time has told me
You came with the dawn
A soul with no footprint
A rose with no thorn

Your tears they tell me
There's really no way
Of ending your troubles
With things you can say

And time will tell you
To stay by my side
To keep on trying
'Till there's no more to hide

So leave the ways that are making you be
What you really don't want to be
Leave the ways that are making you love
What you really don't want to love

Time has told me
You're a rare rare find
A troubled cure
For a troubled mind

And time has told me
Not to ask for more
For some day our ocean
Will find its shore

I Believe In A Hill Called Mount Calvary
Composer(s): William Gaither; Gloria Gaither; Dale Oldham
Performer(s): Gaither Vocal Band
and multiple other artists



I believe in a hill called mount calvary
I believe whatever the cost
And when time has surrendered
And earth is no more
I'll still cling to the old rugged cross

I believe that this life with its great mysteries
Surely someday will come to an end
But faith will conquer the darkness and death
And will lead at last to my friend

I believe that the Christ
Who was slain on the cross
Has the power to change lives today
For He changed me completely
A new life is mine
And that is why by the cross
I will stay

I believe in a hill called mount calvary
I believe whatever the cost
And when time has surrendered
And earth is no more
I'll still cling to the old rugged cross

Je Serai Là Pour Toi
Composer(s): Françoise Hardy; J.P. Castelain
Performer(s): Françoise Hardy



il y a tant de rêve
par-delà ta nuit
tant et tant de soleil
derrière tes murs gris
mais tu ne les vois pas
car tu restes chez toi

il y a tant de ciel
par-dessus ton toit
ta porte est-elle si vieille
quelle ne s'ouvre pas?
ou restes-tu chez toi
par peur d'attraper froid?

tu sais, j'ai eu froid aussi
tu sais, j'ai pleuré un jour
où je suis sortie
mais tu vois, aujourd'hui
je ne veux plus rentrer

il y a peu de gens
que l'on peut aimer
mais si tu voulais pourtant
j'aimerais t'aimer
le jour où tu voudras
je serai là pour toi

Time Has Come Today
Composer(s): Willie M. Chambers - Joseph L. Chambers
First release by: The Chambers Brothers - 1967
Covered by multiple other artists



Young hearts can go that way
Can't put it off another day
I don't care what others say
They say we don't listen anyway
Time has come today 
The rules have changed today
I have no place to stay
Thinking about the subway
The love has flown away
My tears have come and gone
Oh my lord I have to roam
I have no home
I have no home 

Now the time has come
No place to run
I might get burned up by the sun
but I had my fun 

I've been loved and put aside
I've been crushed by tumbling tide
and my soul has been psychedelicized 

Now the time has come
There are things to realize
Time has come today
Time has come today
Time 

I Believe

Covered by multiple other artists



I believe for every drop of rain that falls a flower grows
I believe that somewhere in the darkest night a candle glows
I believe for everyone who goes astray someone will come to show the way
I believe, I believe

I believe above the storm the smallest prayer will still be heard
I believe that someone in the great somewhere hears every word
Every time I hear a newborn baby cry or touch a leaf or see the sky
Then I know why I believe

Every time I hear a newborn baby cry or touch a leaf or see the sky
Then I know why I believe (why I believe)

Sur tous les chemins de ta vie
Dans le désert ou sous la pluie
Quand tu voudras je serai là

Que tu viennes d'un château
De nulle part ou d'un ruisseau
Quand tu voudras je serai là

Je serai là si tu veux
Comme ces rêves qui rendent heureux
Pour faire d'un jour le plus beau jour de ta vie
Je serai là si tu veux
Comme la vie qu'on vit à deux
Si tu es là je serai là

Dans le souffle d'un vent géant
Dans le sourire du printemps
Quand tu voudras je serai là

Dans tes moments de solitude
Dans le confort ou la vie trop dure
Je serai là

Je serai là si tu veux
Comme ces rêves qui rendent heureux
Pour faire d'un jour le plus beau jour de ta vie
Je serai là si tu veux
Comme la vie qu'on vit à deux
Si tu es là je serai là

Dans tes yeux ou dans ton sommeil
Quand tu dors, quand tu te réveilles
Quand tu voudras je serai là

Je serai là si tu veux
Comme ces rêves qui rendent heureux
Pour faire d'un jour le plus beau jour de ta vie
Je serai là si tu veux
Comme la vie qu'on vit à deux
Si tu es là je serai là

Rien que pour toi je serai là
Si tu es là je serai là

Time For Livin'
Composer(s): Don Addrisi - Dick Addrisi
Performer(s): The Association



I kicked off my shoes and felt the good earth under my feet
I loosened my tie and saw what it feels like to breathe
I found the secret to life
I took some time for livin'

I took off my watch and found I had all the time in the world
I opened my arms so I could hold life like a beautiful girl
I laid down all of my hangups forever
Hey look, I've changed
My attitude's been rearranged
From now on I'm taking some

Time for livin', groovin' on everything
Life is givin', from now on I'm taking
Time...
For life

Too busy to stop and notice the things that are real
Embarassed to talk about all the things that I feel
It's so strange never noticed the world all around me
Hey look, I've changed
My attitude's been rearranged
From now on I'm taking some

Time for livin', groovin' on everything
Life is givin', from now on I'm taking
Time... For life

Je Saurai Être Ton Amie
Performer(s): France Gall



Je saurai être ton amie
Si tu veux me parler au milieu de la nuit
Si tu veux raconter si tu as des ennuis
Me parler de ta vie

Tu sais je sais être une amie
Et je les reconnais tous ceux qui m'ont trahie
Quand plus rien n'était simple au détour de ma vie
En plein cœur de la nuit

Tu sais le moment vient où il faut être là
On a vraiment besoin
De quelqu'un près de soi
Et si tu veux de moi

Je saurai être ton amie
Et je saurai comprendre tes silences à demi
Si tu sais m'accepter et si tu te confies
Je saurai t'écouter, tu sauras que je suis ton amie

Je saurai être ton amie
Et t'écouter cent fois recommencer ta vie
Te redonner encore et encore mon avis
Que tu n'écouteras pas et de faire des paris
Que je saurai perdus

Time Don't Run Out On Me
Composer(s): Carole King - Gerry Goffin
Performer(s): Anne Murray



Time, don't run out on me
Gotta make you love me the way you used to do
Gotta get back the feeling and put wind in my sails
And chart a course that gets me back to you, back to you

Oh, the lonely days, the lonely nights lookin' back in time
Time, don't run out on me
I've gotta get back to where we used to be (where we used to be)
Time, don't run out on me, don't run out on me

There's one more thing I gotta do before I pack it in
Gotta make the right moves, say the right thing to change your mind 
And find a way to get you back again, back again

All the wasted time, the lonely nights lookin' back in time
Time, don't run out on me
I've gotta get back to where we used to be (where we used to be)
Time, don't run out on me

Once I could catch your eye across the room
And know just what you were thinkin'
And when I held you in my arms, we'd dream as one
But those days are gone, somethin' went wrong
And when I wake up to the mornin' sun
I find myself sayin'

Time, don't run out on me, don't run out on me, don't run out on me
Time, don't run out on me
Time, don't run out on me
I've gotta get back to where we used to be (where we used to be)
Time, don't run out on me (time don't run out on me)
(Time, don't run out on me)
(Time, don't run out on me)
(Time, don't run out on me)...

I Beeped When I Should Have Bopped
Composer(s): Paul Brenner; Bernie Wayne
Performer(s): Louis Prima



Beep-beep-beep-beepy-beep-beep-bee-bee

Slow down, honey 
Be cool 
It looks like you’ll never learn how to bop
You’re nothing but a square!   
All you do is beep-beep-beep 
You’re a bring-down and I’m cutting out 
Goodbye!

There she goes!

My life was all sunshine and roses 

With the gal, I was right at the top
Well, we get along swell till she suddenly fell for
The music that’s known as bop
Oh, I tried to be so hep for her sake
Till one day I made my fatal mistake

I beeped when I should have bopped
Lapped when I should have lopped
I was walking on air till she called me a square
‘Cause I beeped when I should have bopped
I dipped when I should have flipped
I tripped when I should have hipped
My romancing was fine till I got out of line
‘Cause I beeped when I should have bopped

Oh-ya-coo, coo-ya-oo, oo-ba-doo, shmoo-ba-poo
It all sounds the same to me
Bla-de-da, da-de-bla, diddly-da, schmiddly-pa
Is it something that’s served with tea?

Hiccups!

I beeped when I should have bopped
I heaped when I should have hopped
I was giving my all to my bum of the ball
And now I’m blowing my top
‘Cause I beeped when I should have bopped

Oh-ya-coo, coo-ya-oo, oo-ba-doo, schmoo-ba-poo 

It all sounds the same to me

Bla-de-da, da-de-bla, diddly-da, schmiddly-pa
Is it something that’s served with tea?

I beeped when I should have bopped
I heaped when I should have hopped
I was giving my all to the bum of the ball
And now I’m blowing my top
‘Cause I beeped 

Slow down man!

‘Cause I leaped

Be cool Daddio!

‘Cause I beeped

That’s the end!

When I should have bopped
