Tonight, I celebrate my love for you
It seems the natural thing to do
Tonight, no one's gonna find us
We'll leave the world behind us
When I make love to you

Tonight, I celebrate my love for you
And hope that deep inside you'll feel it too
Tonight, our spirits will be climbing
To a sky lit up with diamond
When I make love to you tonight

Tonight, I celebrate my love for you
And that midnight sun is gonna come shining through
Tonight, there'll be no distance between us
What I want most to do is to get close to you tonight

Tonight, I celebrate my love for you
And soon this ol' world will seem brand new
Tonight, we will both discover how friends turn into lovers
When I make love to you

Tonight, I celebrate my love for you
And that midnight sun is gonna come shining through
Tonight, there'll be no distance between us
What I want most to do is to get close to you

Tonight, I celebrate my love for you
Tonight 

I Hear A Symphony

First release by: The Supremes - 1965
Covered by multiple other artists



You've given me a true love
and every day I thank you love
For a feeling that's so new
So inviting, so exciting

Whenever you're near
I hear a symphony
A tender melody
Pulling me closer
Closer to your arms

Then suddenly, I hear a symphony
Ooh, your lips are touching mine
A feeling so divine
'Till I leave the past behind
I'm lost in a world
Made for you and me

Whenever you're near
I hear a symphony
Play sweet and tenderly
Every time your lips meet mine now baby

Baby, baby
You bring much joy within
Don't let this feeling end
Let it go on and on and on
Now baby, baby
Those tears that seem my eyes
I cry not for myself
But for those who never felt the joy we felt

Whenever you're near
I hear a symphony
Each time you speak to me
I hear a tender rap so dy of love now

Baby, baby
As you stand holding me
Whispering how much you care
A thousand violins fill the air

Now baby, baby
Don't let this moment end
Keep standing close to me
Ooh, so close to me, baby, baby
Baby, baby
I hear a symphony
A tender melody 

Joy To The World
Composer(s): Hoyt Axton
Performer(s): Three Dog Night



Jeremiah was a bullfrog 
Was a good friend of mine 
I never understood a single word he said 
But I helped him a-drink his wine 
And he always had some mighty fine wine 
Singing... 

Joy to the world 
All the boys and girls now 
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea 
Joy to you and me 

If I were the king of the world 
Tell you what I'd do 
I'd throw away the cars and the bars and the war 
Make sweet love to you 
Sing it now... 

Joy to the world 
All the boys and girls 
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea 
Joy to you and me 

You know I love the ladies 
Love to have my fun 
I'm a high life flyer and a rainbow rider 
A straight shooting son-of-a-gun (oh yeah) 
I said a straight shooting son-of-a-gun 

Joy to the world 
All the boys and girls 
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea 
Joy to you and me 

Joy to the world 
All the boys and girls 
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea 
Joy to you and me 

Joy to the world 
All the boys and girls 
Joy to the world 
Joy to you and me 

Joy to the world 
All the boys and girls now 
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea 
Joy to you and me 

Joy to the world 
All the boys and girls 
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea 
Joy to you and me 

I wanna tell you 
Joy to the world 
All the boys and girls 
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea 
Joy to you and me 

Joy to the world 
All the boys and girls 
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea 
Joy to you and me 

Joy to the world 
All the boys and girls

Performer(s): Sandra Kim & Frank Galan - 1997



Vannacht bekende ik mijn liefde voor jou
Gewoon omdat ik zoveel van je hou

Vannacht, niemand kan ons vinden
Ver weg van alle vrienden
En ik beminde jou

Vannacht bekende ik mijn liefde voor jou
Vannacht beloofde ik je eeuwige trouw

Vannacht was ik in hoger sferen
En stierf wel duizend keren
Want ik beminde jou, vannacht

Vannacht bekende ik mijn liefde voor jou
Het was middernacht, toch voelde ik de ochtend al
Vannacht kwam jij voor 't eerst in mijn leven
Wat kan er mooier zijn dan dicht bij jou te zijn

Vannacht

Vannacht bekende ik mijn liefde voor jou
En zie hoeveel ik nu van je hou

Vannacht. Eerst waren wij nog vrienden
Nu zijn we twee beminden
En ik beminde jou

Vannacht bekende ik mijn liefde voor jou
Het was middernacht, toch voelde ik de ochtend al
Vannacht kwam jij voor 't eerst in mijn leven
Wat kan er mooier zijn dan dicht bij jou te zijn

Vannacht bekende ik mijn liefde voor jou, vannacht

I Hear A Sweet Voice Calling
Composer(s): Bill Monroe
Performer(s): Bill Monroe
and multiple other artists



Our little girl taken sick one evening
As she walked home from school
And in her death bed soon bring her
It made us so sad and so blue

Then she called me close to her bedside
And whispered these words soft and low
"Tell Mommy to come to me quickly
I want to kiss you both then go"

I hear a sweet voice calling
Way up in heaven on high
God has made room for you daughter
Oh Mommy and Daddy don't cry

Take care of my little brother
Tell him I've gone to rest
I know his little heart is broken
He's all that you have left

Then she closed her eyes forever
Never to see us no more
Until we meet our darling 
On that bright and peaceful shore

Joy
Composer(s): Harry Nilsson
Performer(s): Harry Nilsson



The other day, I met a girl named Joy
She said, “Come here, I’m going to make you my Joy Boy”
Well, things went good, things went bad
Now every time I think of Joy it makes me sad

It makes me ... sad

The other day, I met a girl named Joy
She said, “Roy, I’m going to make you my Joy Boy”
Well, she took me for a ride, sort of a joy ride
Now every time I think of Joy, I get all weird inside

Joy to the world was a beautiful girl
But to me Joy meant only sorrow

Now, if you haven’t got an answer, you’d never have a question
And if you never had a question, then you’d never have a problem
But if you never had a problem, well everyone would be happy
But if everyone was happy, there’d never be a love song

Joy to the world was a beautiful girl
But to me Joy meant only sorrow

The other day, I met a girl named Joy
She said, “Come here, I’m going to make you all clammy inside”
Well, things went good, things went bad
Things went good and things went bad
Good, bad, good, bad, good, bad

Joy to the world was a beautiful girl
But to me Joy meant only sorrow
Joy to the world was a beautiful girl
But to me Joy meant only sorrow

Tonight You're Mine
Composer(s): Jim Capaldi
Performer(s): Jim Capaldi



Your wedding was so fine, a thousand people drinking champagne and wine
Your daddy smiled as he gave your hand away
All your friends got you fixed in place
I can see by the sad look on your face
that your heart is dying to fly away

Tonight you're mine
I'm gonna love you tell the end of time
Tonight we're gonna take it all the way
Tonight you're mine
This thing we're feeling girl
it ain't no crime you know
There's gonna be a brighter day 

The time has come for you to make that final run
Pack a suitcase - get out the door
Sometimes you gotta be cruel to be kind
Sometimes you gotta leave it all behind
Well you don't need it any more

Tonight you're mine
I'm gonna love you tell the end of time
Tonight we're gonna take it all the way
Tonight you're mine
This thing we're feeling girl
it ain't no crime you know
There's gonna be a brighter day

I Hear A Rhapsody

Performer(s): Jimmy Dorsey
and multiple other artists



And when I hear you call
so softly to me
I don't hear a call at all
I hear a Rhapsody

And when your sparkling eyes
are smiling at me
Then soft through the starlit skies
I hear a rhapsody

My days are so blue
when you're away
My heart longs for you
so won't you stay

My darling, hold me tight
and whisper to me
Then soft through a starry night
I'll hear a rhapsody

Jovens Tardes De Domingo
Composer(s): Roberto Carlos; Erasmo Carlos
Performer(s): Roberto Carlos



Eu me lembro com saudade o tempo que passou
O tempo passa tão depressa mas em mim deixou

Jovens tardes de domingo
Tantas alegrias
Velhos tempos, belos dias
 
Canções usavam formas simples pra falar de amor
Carrões e gente numa festa de sorriso e cor
 
Hoje os meus domingos são doces recordações
Daquelas tardes de guitarras
Sonhos e emoções
O que foi felicidade me mata agora de saudade
Velhos tempos, belos dias
 
Vejam só que festa de arromba
Outro dia eu fui parar
Vinha voando no meu carro
Quando vi pela frente
Na beira da calçada
Um broto displicente

Tonight You're Gonna Fall In Love With Me
Performer(s): The Shirelles



They say that you will never settle down 
They say that you just have to run around 
But they don't realize you're in for a big surprise 
Tonight you're gonna fall in love with me 

I'm gonna treat you like you're a king (you're a king) 
To win your lovin' I'll do anything (anything) 
I'm gonna treat you fine, I'm gonna make you mine 
Tonight you're gonna fall in love with me 

All the girls are after you, it really shows (that you know) 
But tonight I'll hold you tight & you will be (he will be) 
In love with me (in love with me) 

Before you know it, you will be my guy (be my guy)

I hear a dream all day
The dream that calls to me
Come home again you sailor man, sailor man
Home again to the sea
Where my goal is who can tell
Fare thee well my darling, adieu

My heart’s with you
I hear a dream all day
A dream that calls to me
Come home again you sailor man, sailor man
Home again where you should be

Jours De Lumière
Composer(s): Salvatore Adamo
Performer(s): Salvatore Adamo



En ce temps là nous aurions décroché la lune
Pour gagner l'tour gratuit au manège de la vie
Nous flânions en chemin, nous chantions pour des prunes
Cueillant de ci de là le sourire d'une fille

C'était encore le temps des émotions primaires
On s'emplissait les yeux d'un couché de soleil
Nous n'avions ni le goût, ni le sens des affaires
Mais un sens de la vie qui n'a plus son pareil
Comme avant, comme avant
En ces jours de lumières
J'aimerais tant retrouver
Les parfums oubliés
Des bonheurs ordinaires
En ces jours de lumière

C'était aussi le temps des amitiés sans faille
Prêts pour tous les départs ensemble à l'arrivée
Nous étions deux amis et qu'importait la taille
Nous étions deux géants, nous étions une armée

Comme avant, comme avant
En ces jours de lumière
J'aimerais tant retrouver les parfums oubliés
Des bonheurs ordinaires
En ces jours de lumière
Nous avions tous les pouvoirs
Dans nos solitudes d'or
Nous gardions tous nos espoirs
Nous ne rampions pas encore
En ces jours de lumière, en ces jours de lumière
En ces jours de lumière...

Et nous passions les nuits à retoucher le monde
Et au petit matin, nous avions tout compris
Nous avions les idées, nous avions la faconde
Tout devait être beau, il suffisait d'un "si"
Comme avant, comme avant
En ces jours de lumière
J'aimerais tant retrouver
Les parfums oubliés
Des bonheurs ordinaires
Comme avant, comme avant
En ces jours de lumière
J'aimerais tant retrouver
Les parfums oubliés
Des bonheurs ordinaires

Tonight You Belong To Me
Performer(s): Patience & Prudence



I know (I know)
You belong - to somebody new
But Tonight you belong to me...
Although (Although)
We're apart - you're part of my heart...
And tonight you belong to me...
Way down by the stream...
How sweet it will seem...
Once more just to dream 
In the moonlight...
My honey I know...
With the dawn... that you will be gone...
But tonight you belong to me...
Way down way down along the stream...
How very very sweet it will seem...
Once more just to dream in the silvery moonlight...
My honey I know...
With the dawn... that you will be gone...
But tonight you belong to me...
Just to little old me...

I Hear A Call To Arms
Composer(s): Sam Coslow; Al Siegel
Performer(s): Dorothy Lamour



When you blow that horn you thrill me
To the marrow of my bones you chill me
There it goes, I hear a call to arms
La-de-da-de-da
Oh the bliss each note expresses
Reaching out to me like soft caresses
There it goes, I hear a call to arms

And even though you go
And this romantic glow may fade
One dream you'll never sever
`cos when you're gone
I'll hear your serenade
Echoing in my heart forever

Blow it, slow and low and tender
Let my soul respond in sweet surrender
There it goes, I hear a call to arms

And even though you go
And this romantic glow may fade
One dream you'll never sever
`cos when you're gone
I'll hear your serenade
Echoing in my heart forever

Blow it, slow and low and tender
Let my soul respond in sweet surrender
There it goes, I hear a call to arms

Journey's End
Composer(s): Ernest Tubb; Pappy Stewart
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb;
Bill Monroe; Jimmie Skinner



Each night brings back my dreams of you
I cry and cry I feel so blue
You broke my heart so why pretend
Because the sign ahead reads journeys end

Chorus:
River rollin’ along… 
Skies are turnin’ gray
Clouds are movin’ in…
I’ve lost my way
I try to smile… 
But why pretend
Because the sign ahead… 
Reads journey’s end

Ah come in Billy Byrd…

Sitting all alone beneath the stars
I’m wondering where on earth you are
Thinking of things that might have been
But the sign ahead… reads journey’s end

Chorus:
River rollin’ along… 
Skies are turnin’ gray
Clouds are movin’ in…
I’ve lost my way
I try to smile… 
But why pretend
Because the sign ahead… 
Reads journey’s end

Tonight Will Live
Composer(s): Ned Washington - Agustín Lara
Performer(s): Dorothy Lamour; Bunny Berigan



Tonight, tonight will live forever
Tonight, tonight will vanish never
Heaven has hung the stars out in their places
This is the night for love and warm embraces
The leaves are wet, the breeze is tender
The scene is set for sweet surrender
Thousands of nights may come while we're together
But I know that tonight (hum)
Will live forever!

I Haven't Got Anything Better To Do
Composer(s): Lee Pockriss; Paul Vance
Performer(s): Astrud Gilberto
and multiple other artists



I never loved him, he never reached me
He was just someone, someone I knew
I think about him on alternate Thursdays
When I haven’t got anything better to do

He’s got a problem if he thinks I need him
I couldn’t care less now that we’re through
I only sit home and I wait for his phone call
When I haven’t got anything better to do

Wasn’t I awfully smart not to fall and break my heart
He never meant a thing to me, he’s gone
I’m glad, I’m free
And when he kissed me, no no he never moved me
Nothing fantastic, thrilling or new
So if I’m crying, I’m only crying
Cause I haven’t got anything better
No I haven’t got anything better
I haven’t got anything better to do…without you
I never loved him, no he never moved me
Nothing fantastic…

Hey!
Vous tous, où allez vous comme ça
Qu'es ce que c'est que tous ces cris de joies
Mais dis donc grand-père qu'es ce que tu fais là
À danser dans la rue comme Zorba
On dirait qu'il pleut là bas
Regarde le bon Dieu nous offre le champagne
C'est la fête à qui c'est le printemps de quoi
On en sais rien mais on y vas

Jouez Bouzouki, jouez Bouzouki
Que l'hiver vole en éclat
Jouez Bouzouki, jouez Bouzouki
Pour moi
Jouez Bouzouki, jouez Bouzouki
C'est la fête à qui voudras
Jouez Bouzouki, jouez Bouzouki
Pour moi

Il nous arrive de tous les cotés
Des gens qui n'avaient jamais dansés
Il y a des femmes en noir et en couleurs
Des enfants qui rient et des vieux qui pleurent
Tambourin, Guitare et Marimba
Le matin ne s'en remettra pas
C'est la fête à qui c'est le printemps de quoi

Jouez Bouzouki, jouez Bouzouki
Que l'hiver vole en éclat
Jouez Bouzouki, jouez Bouzouki
Pour moi
C'est la fête à qui voudras
Jouez Bouzouki, jouez Bouzouki
Pour moi

Hey! Bouzouki, jouez Bouzouki
Que l'hiver vole en éclat
Jouez Bouzouki, jouez Bouzouki

C'est la fête à qui voudras

I Haven't Got The Nerve
Composer(s): George Cameron; Steve Carmelo Martin
First release: The Left Banke - 1967
Covered by: Shane Faubert - 1999



I haven't got the nerve
I haven't got the nerve

to tell you our love is over
and to say I'm through with you
I can't take much more of you girl
you make all my days so blue

leave me lonely and forget me
days of may will soon be gone
girl I know you never loved me
It won't hurt to see me gone

I haven't got the nerve
I haven't got the nerve

I have realized a lot girl
since the day that we first met
I'm not like I used to be girl
I won't hide my fears no more

you won't hurt me anymore, girl
listen to these words and leave
there's no more love left inside me
Is not me that you deceive
