Torn Between Two Lovers Composer(s): Peter Yarrow - Phillip Jarrel Performer(s): Mary MacGregor and multiple other artists
There are times when a woman has to say what's on her mind Even though she knows how much it's gonna hurt Before I say another world let me tell you:
I love you Let me hold you close and say these words as gently as I can There's been another man that I've needed and I've loved But that doesn't mean I love you less And he knows he can't possess me And he knows he never will There's just this empty place inside of me That only he can fill
Torn between two lovers Feeling like a fool Loving both of you is breaking all the rules Torn between two lovers Feeling like a fool Loving you both is breaking all the rules
You mustn't think you failed me Just because there's someone else You were the first real love I ever had And all the things I ever said I swear they still are true For no one else can have the part of me I gave to you
Torn between two lovers Feeling like a fool Loving both of you is breaking all the rules Torn between two lovers Feeling like a fool Loving you both is breaking all the rules
I couldn't really blame you if you turned and walked away But with everything I feel inside I'm asking you to stay
Torn between two lovers Feeling like a fool Loving both of you is breaking all the rules Torn between two lovers Feeling like a fool Loving you both is breaking all the rules
Torn between two lovers Feeling like a fool Loving both of you is breaking all the rules Torn between two lovers Feeling like a fool Loving you both is breaking all the rules...
I Let A Song Go Out Of My Heart Composer(s): Duke Ellington; Irving Mills; Henry Nemo; John Redmond First release by: Duke Ellington and His Orch. - 1938 Covered by multiple other artists
I let a song go out of my heart It was the sweetest melody I know I lost heaven 'cause you were the song
Since you and I have drifted apart Life doesn't mean a thing to me Please come back, sweet music, I know I was wrong
Am I too late to make amends? You know that we were meant to be more than just friends, just friends
I let a song go out of my heart Believe me, darlin', when I say I won't know sweet music until you return some day
I let a song go out of my heart Believe me, darlin', when I say I won't know sweet music until you return some day

Junge, komm bald wieder, bald wieder nach Haus Junge, fahr nie wieder, nie wieder hinaus Ich mach mir Sorgen, Sorgen um Dich Denk auch an morgen, denk auch an mich Junge, komm bald wieder, bald wieder nach Haus Junge, fahr nie wieder, nie wieder hinaus
Wohin die Seefahrt mich im Leben trieb ich weiß noch heute, was mir Mutter schrieb in jedem Hafen kam ein Brief an Bord und immer schrieb sie: Bleib nicht so lange fort!
Junge, komm bald wieder, bald wieder nach Haus Junge, fahr nie wieder, nie wieder hinaus
Ich weiß noch, wie die erste Fahrt verlief ich schlich mich heimlich fort, als Mutter schlief Als sie erwachte, war ich auf dem Meer Im ersten Brief stand: Komm doch bald wieder her!
Junge, komm bald wieder, bald wieder nach Haus Junge, fahr nie wieder, nie wieder hinaus Ich mach mir Sorgen, Sorgen um Dich Denk auch an morgen, denk auch an mich Junge, komm bald wieder, bald wieder nach Haus Junge, fahr nie wieder, nie wieder hinaus
Torn And Frayed Composer(s): Mick Jagger - Keith Richards First recording/First release: The Rolling Stones - 1971/1972 Covered by multiple other artists
Hey let him follow you down Way underground wind and he's bound Bound to follow you down Just a dead beat right off the street Bound to follow you down Well the ballrooms and smelly bordellos And dressing rooms filled with parasites On stage the band has got problems They're a bag of nerves on first nights He ain't tied down to no home town Yeah, and he thought he was wreckless You think he's bad, he thinks you're mad Yeah, and the guitar player gets restless
And his coat is torn and frayed It's seen much better days Just as long as the guitar plays Let it steal your heart away Let it steal your heart away
Joe's got a cough, sounds kind a rough Yeah, and the codeine to fix it Doctor prescribes, drug store supplies Who's gonna help him to kick it
Well his coat is torn and frayed It`s seen much better days Just as long as the guitar plays Let it steal your heart away Let it steal your heart away
I Left My Heart In San Francisco Composer(s): George C. Cory Jr.; Douglass Cross Performer(s): Tony Bennett - 1962 Covered by multiple other artists
The loveliness of Paris Seems somehow sadly gay The glory that was Rome Is of another day I've been terribly alone and forgotten in Manhattan I'm coming home to my city by the bay
I left my heart in San Francisco High on a hill, it calls to me To be where little cable cars Climb halfway to the stars! The morning fog may chill the air
I don't care
My love waits there in San Francisco Above the blue and windy sea When I come home to you, San Francisco Your golden sun will shine for me!

I Left My Hat In Haiti Composer(s): Burton Lane; Alan Jay Lerner Performer(s): Fred Astaire and multiple other artists
I left my hat in Haiti In some forgotten flat in Haiti I couldn't tell you how I got there I only know it was so hot there
She took my hat politely And wound her arms around me tightly But I remember nothing clearly Except the flame when she came near me
Her eyes had the glow of surrender And her touch, it was tender And with someone as fiery as that You forget about your hat
So if you go to Haiti There is a girl I know in Haiti If you can find her you'll adore 'er Just look around 'til you've found Someone who has a blue-gray fedora
Her eyes had the glow of surrender And her touch, it was tender And with someone as fiery as that You forget about your hat
So if you go to Haiti There is a girl I know in Haiti If you can find her you'll adore 'er Just look around 'til you've found Someone who has a blue-gray fedora

Men: June is bustin' out all over All over the meader and the hill Flowers bustin' out on bushes And the roughen river pushes Ev'ry little wheel that wheels beside the mill June is bustin' out all over The ocean is full of Jacks and Jills With the little tail is swishing' Ev'ry lady fish is wishin' that a male would come And grab 'er by the gills Because it's June...

Chorus: Because it's June... June, June, June Just because it's June, June, June! It's June...It's June, June, June Just because it's June, June...
Nettie: March went out like a lion A-wavin' up the weather in the bay Then April cried and stepped aside And lone came pretty little May! May was full of promises But she didn't keep it quick enough for some And the crowd up doubtin' of promises Was predictin' that the summer'd never come
Men: But the summer's by God We can feel it come You can feel it in your heart You can see it in the ground
Girls: You can see it in the trees You can smell it in the breeze
All: Look around! Look around! Look around!
Nettie: June is bustin' out all over The ladies and men are payin' court Lots of ships are keepin' anchor Just because the captain hanker For the comfort they can only get in port
Chorus: You can hear it comin'!

Nettie and Chorus: Because it's June... June, June, June Just because it's June, June, June!

What'll I do? What'll I do? I'm just as sad as can be Something awful happened to me What'll I do? What'll I do? I'm in a terrible plight Like a great big fool I did a very silly thing last night
I left my door open and my daddy walked out Without a doubt Worried am I, wondering why He never stopped to say Goodbye I can't live without my loving daddy about That's why I shout He must come back, I'll lose my mind A good man's mighty hard to find He must have some loving now and then Maybe that will bring him back again I'm gonna keep my door wide open till my daddy comes back

I left my door open and my daddy walked out Without a doubt Worried am I, wondering why He never stopped to say Goodbye I can't live without my loving daddy about That's why I shout He must come back, I'll lose my mind A good man's mighty hard to find A good man's mighty hard to find He must have some loving now and then Maybe that will bring him back again I'm gonna keep my door wide open till my daddy comes back Till my daddy comes back Gonna keep my door open till my daddy comes back
June In January Composer(s): Ralph Rainger; Leo Robin Performer(s): Bing Crosby; and various other artists
A clouded moon creeps across the clouded sky Winds of January sigh and moan And yet it's June I can see a sky of blue Dear the miracle is due to you Just you It's June in January Because I'm in love It always is spring in my heart with you in my arms The snow is just white blossoms that fall from above And here is the reason, my dear Your magical charms The night is cold The trees are bare But I can feel the scent of roses in the air It's June in January Because I'm in love But only because I'm in love with you
Oh the night is cold! Won't it be to bear? But I can feel the scent of roses in the air It's June in January Because I'm in love But only because I'm in love with you
Showed me pictures in the gallery
Showed me novels on the shelf
Put my hands across the table
Gave me knowledge of myself
Showed me visions, showed me nightmares
Gave me dreams that never end
Showed me light out of the tunnel
When there was darkness all around instead
Tore down a la Rimbaud
And I wish my message would come
Tore down a la Rimbaud, you know it's hard some time
you know it's hard some time
Showed me ways and means and motions
Showed me what it's like to be
Gave me days of deep devotions
Showed me things I cannot see
Tore down a la Rimbaud
And I wish my purpose would come
Tore down a la Rimbaud, you know it's hard some time
You know it's hard some time
Showed me different shapes and colours
Showed me many different roads
Gave me very clear instructions
When I was in the dark night of the soul
Tore down a la Rimbaud
And I wish my writing would come
Tore down a la Rimbaud, you know it's hard some time
you know it's hard some time
I Leave My Heart In An English Garden Composer(s): Harry Parr Davies; Christopher Hassall Performer(s): Edmund Hockridge; William Rayner
Breezes in the long grass ruffling my hair Hollyhock and bluebell scenting the air Nothing in the world can ever be Such a sweet memory Nothing in the world was ever so fair
I leave my heart in an English garden Safe where the elm and the oak stand by Though the years rise and roll away Still shall those watchmen stay Bold in the blue of an English sky
I leave my dreams in an English garden Safe where the breezes of England blow When the highways are dark and drear I know theres sunshine here Bright where the roses of England grow
I leave my heart in an English garden Safe where the elm and the oak stand by Though the years rise and roll away Still shall those watchmen stay Bold in the blue of an English sky
I leave my dreams in an English garden Safe where the breezes of England blow When the highways are dark and drear I know theres sunshine here Bright where the roses of England grow
