Elevator Rock


Elevator Rock
Composer(s): Tommy Steele Performer(s): Tommy Steele and multiple other artists



I work in the store on the edge of town
The daily shoppers going up and down
Elevator rock, elevator roll
Elevator rock, elevator roll

Buzzin' all day, buzzin' all night
Floors to the left and floors to the right
Elevator rock, elevator roll
Elevator rock, elevator roll

Goin' up madam, going down sir
Goin' up sonny, or your little girl
Elevator rock, elevator roll
Elevator rock, elevator roll

First floor ties, second floor socks
Third floor dresses, how my head it rocks
Elevator rock, elevator roll
Elevator rock, elevator roll

Buzzin' all day, buzzin' all night
Floors to the left and floors to the right
You can keep "see you later alligator"
I got my elevator
Elevator rock, elevator roll

Si Tu Dois Partir


Si Tu Dois Partir - 1969 (aka Maintenant Ou Jamais - 1966)
(Adapted from: If You Gotta Go, Go Now - 1965/1991)
(Italian Version: Non Sperarlo Più - 1966)
Composer(s): Bob Dylan
Performer(s): Fairport Convention - 1969



C'est pas que je te demande
Que faire que tu ne jamais fais
C'est seulement qu'il fait trop tard
Et il fait trop noir pour trouver la porte

Mais si tu dois partir, va t'en
Mais si tu dois partir, va t'en
Si non, tu dois rester la nuit

C'est pas que je te demande
De prendre part dans ce jeu
C'est seulement je n'ai pas de montre
Comme toujours faire le par contre

Mais si tu dois partir, va t'en
Mais si tu dois partir, va t'en
Si non, tu dois rester la nuit

Tu sais j'aurais des cauchemars
Et aussi mauvaise conscience
Si je t'empêche de faire
Ce que vraiment tu espère

Mais si tu dois partir, va t'en
Mais si tu dois partir, va t'en
Si non, tu dois rester la nuit

Performer(s): Erick Saint-Laurent - 1966

Versions In Other Languages:

Ah, je ne veux pas vivre tout seul
Ah, je ne veux pas vivre tout seul

Eleonor Rigby
Etait la femme que j'ai le plus aimé dans ma vie
Je vous le dis

Quels beaux souvenirs
Ces promenades avec elle au fond de son jardin
Nous étions bien

Tout me semble triste
Moins doux qu'auparavant

Tout me semble triste
Moins doux dorénavant

Soudain le malheur
Frappa chez elle une nuit, c'était en plein hiver
Je ne pus rien faire

Quand le jour maudit
Est arrivé, elle a fermé les yeux pour toujours
Mon pauvre amour

Tout me semble triste
Moins doux qu'auparavant

Tout me semble triste
Moins doux dorénavant

Ah, je ne veux pas vivre tout seul
Ah, je ne veux pas vivre tout seul

Eleonor Rigby
Repose ici près de chêne où l'on venait s'aimer
C'était l'été

Aujourd'hui encore
Je vais prier sur cette tombe où un nom est inscrit
Eleonor Rigby

Tout me semble triste
Moins doux qu'auparavant

Tout me semble triste
Moins doux dorénavant

Maintenant Ou Jamais (Johnny Hallyday)


Maintenant Ou Jamais - 1966 (aka Si Tu Dois Partir - 1969)

(Italian Version: Non Sperarlo Più - 1966
Composer(s): Bob Dylan; Gilles Thibault
Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday - 1966



Trois fois en moins d'une heure
Tu m'as demandé l'heure
Et quand je te prends dans mes bras
Tu dis qu'il ne vaut mieux pas

Si tu as décidé
De t'en aller
Si tu crois que c'est mieux
Adieu
Mais c'est maintenant ou jamais

Quand à ma porte tu as frappé
J'ai imaginé
Que tu venais pour rester
N'en parlons plus
J'ai dû me tromper

Si tu as décidé
De t'en aller
Si tu crois que c'est mieux
Adieu
Mais c'est maintenant ou jamais

Je ne veux ni me moquer
Ni te manquer de respect
Mais si tu n'as à me donner
Qu'un amour fait de mots
Mieux vaut rentrer

Si tu as décidé
De t'en aller
Si tu crois que c'est mieux
Adieu
Mais c'est maintenant ou jamais

Mais il est tard, le feu s'éteint
Si tu veux vraiment, qu'importe
Tu connais très bien le chemin
Mais dans le noir
Trouveras-tu la porte?

Si tu as décidé
De t'en aller
Si tu crois que c'est mieux
Adieu
Mais c'est maintenant ou jamais

You got a thing about you
I just can't live without you
I really want you, Elenore, near me
Your looks intoxicate me
Even though your folks hate me
There's no one like you, Elenore, really
Elenore, gee I think you're swell
And you really do me well
You're my pride and joy, et cetera
Elenore, can I take the time
To ask you to speak your mind
Tell me that you love me better
I really think you're groovy
Let's go out to a movie
What do you say, now, Elenore, can we?
They'll turn the lights way down low
Maybe we won't watch the show
I think I love you, Elenore, love me
Elenore, gee I think you're swell
And you really do me well
You're my pride and joy, et cetera
Elenore, can I take the time
To ask you to speak your mind
Tell me that you love me better
Elenore, gee I think you're swell ah-hah
Elenore, gee I think you're swell ah-hah
...hah

If You Go Away


If You Go Away ((Adapted from: Ne Me Quitte Pas (by Simone Langlois) - 1959)) Composer(s): Jacques Brel - Rod McKuen Performer(s): Damita Jo - 1966 and multiple other artists Titles In Other Languages: 1961 - Laat Me Niet Alleen (by Jacques Brel) 1962 - Non Andare Via (by Gino Paoli) 1963 - Bitte Geh' Nicht Fort (by Marlene Dietrich) 1968 - Se Você Voltar (by Agnaldo Timóteo) 1984 - Ala Vetää Vaan (by Susanna Haavisto) 1990 - Não Me Deixes Mais (by Raimundo Fagner) 2002 - Non Lasciarmi Solo (by Duilio Del Prete)



If you go away on this summer day
Then you might as well take the sun away
All the birds that flew in the summer sky
When our love was new and our hearts were high
When the day was young, and the night was long
And the moon stood still for the nightbird's song
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away

But if you stay, I'll make you a day
Like no day has been or will be again
We'll sail the sun, we'll ride on the rain
We'll talk to the trees and worship the wind
Then if you go, I'll understand
Leave me just enough love to fill up my hand
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away

If you go away, as I know you will
You must tell the world to stop turning 'til
You return again, if you ever do
For what good is love without loving you?
Can I tell you now, as you turn to go
I'll be dying slowly 'til the next hello?
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away

But if you stay, I'll make you a night
Like no night has been or will be again
I'll sail on your smile, I'll ride on your touch
I'll talk to your eyes that I love so much
But if you go, go! I won't cry
Though the good is gone from the word goodbye
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away

If you go away, as I know you must
There'll be nothing left in the world to trust
Just an empty room, full of empty space
Like the empty look I see on your face
I'd have been the shadow of your shadow
If I thought it might have kept me by your side
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away

Élégie Prénatale


Élégie Prénatale
Composer(s): Boudewijn de Groot - Lennaert H. Nijgh
Performer(s): Boudewijn de Groot



Ik sta te dromen op de brug, ik zie de bomen in het water
Ik zie de lucht en even later voel ik de blikken in mijn rug
Van al die mensen die daar staan en die mij streng vertoornd vragen
"Moest jij dat echt zo nodig wagen, waarom deed jij haar zoiets aan"

Des zondags luistert men naar 't woord en psalm zingt luide al te gader
Maar ik sta buiten als de dader van een negatieve moord
Vergeving en verdraagzaamheid, ja die zijn goed voor liberalen
Van die onchristelijke kwalen is mijn familie gans bevrijd

Ik weet het best het is mijn schuld dat ik te vroeg met je moest trouwen
Maar voor het genoeglijk nestje bouwen had de natuur toch geen geduld
Het was zo'n zachte nacht in mei, maar ga dat maar eens expliceren
Aan al die dames en die heren, die meer geluk hadden dan wij

Men zegt tot mij je bent een vod, je bent de schand van de familie
Van onze propere domicilie, denk eens aan ons en ook aan God
En daarbij trekt men dan een smoel alsof ik knoflook heb gegeten
Van zo'n vent wil geen christen weten, die kwetst het eerbaarheidsgevoel

Een wijze oom is advocaat en regelt onze huwelijkszaken
Een hok met uitzicht op de daken, maar anders stonden we op straat
Mevrouw hiernaast die alles ziet zit achter het raam en wringt haar handen
Ze roept gekwetst: "Het is een schande", omdat jij moeder wordt, zij niet

Als ik jouw kind was lieve schat dan werd ik liever niet geboren
Dan liet ik niets meer van me horen, dan bleef ik zitten waar ik zat
Want de familie lieve meid is met de toestand zo verlegen
We hebben de kliek nu eenmaal tegen, want zij trouwden wel op tijd

Não Me Deixes Mais


Não Me Deixes Mais ((Adapted from: Ne Me Quitte Pas (by Simone Langlois) - 1959)) Composer(s): Jacques Brel - Fausto Nilo Performer(s): Raimundo Fagner - 1990 Titles In Other Languages: 1961 - Laat Me Niet Alleen (by Jacques Brel) 1962 - Non Andare Via (by Gino Paoli) 1963 - Bitte Geh' Nicht Fort (by Marlene Dietrich) 1966 - If You Go Away (by Damita Jo) 1968 - Se Você Voltar (by Agnaldo Timóteo) 1984 - Ala Vetää Vaan (by Susanna Haavisto) 2002 - Non Lasciarmi Solo (by Duilio Del Prete)



Não me deixes mais
Vamos esquecer, tudo que passou, que ficou pra trás
Esquecer o tempo dos mau entendidos
O tempo perdido
Em pensar demais
Esquecer as horas que quase mataram
De dúvida e medo
A felicidade
Não me deixes mais, não me deixes mais, não me deixes mais

Vou te oferecer
Pérolas que vi
Chover num país
Onde não chove mais
Revolver a terra, muito além da morte
Dourar o teu corpo
Onde ele estiver
Onde eu viverei
O amor será rei, o amor será lei
E tu reinarás
Não me deixes mais, não me deixes mais, não me deixes mais

Não me deixes mais
Que eu inventarei
Palavras sem nexo
E tu compreenderas
Pra falar de amantes
Que por muitas vezes
Sentiram seu próprio coração queimar
Eu vou te contar
A história de um rei
Que morreu tão triste
Por nunca te encontrar
Não me deixes mais, não me deixes mais, não me deixes mais

Dizem que é comum
Renascer o fogo
De um velho vulcão
Que não arde mais
Também já se viu
Em terras destruidas renascer mais trigo
Que no melhor abril
E pra se inflamar
Uma tarde no ar, o vermelho e o negro
Não se casam jamais
Não me deixes mais, não me deixes mais, não me deixes mais

Não me deixes mais
Eu não vou chorar, não vou mais falar, vou ficar em paz
Quero só te viver
Dançar e sorrir
Quero te ouvir
Cantar e falar
Deixa-me existir à sombra da tua sombra
À sombra da tua mão
À sombra do teu cão
Não me deixes mais, não me deixes mais, não me deixes ...

If You Ever Leave Me


If You Ever Leave Me
Composer(s): Richard Marx
Performer(s): Barbra Streisand & Vince Gill



[Vince:]
When I fall, you're my place to land
I lose my touch, you're my hands
The one I hold on to
If you run out of reason to try
I'll love enough for both you and I
I'll be the one you can run to

[Barbra:]
I'd rather go through any pain love puts us through
Than to spend one day without you by my side

[Both:]
If you ever leave me, will you take me with you?
If you're ever lonely, I wanna be lonely too
My home's beside you, no matter where you may go
My love's inside you, even more than you know

[Barbra:]
In a world of anger and lies
I find peace in your eyes
A flame in the darkness

[Both:]
Ooh, And through all space and time
'Til every star refuses to shine

[Barbra:]
You know where my heart is
I'd rather go through any pain love puts us through

[Both:]
Than to spend one day without you by my side
If you ever leave me, will you take me with you?
If you're ever lonely, I wanna be lonely too
Woah
My home's beside you, no matter where you may go

[Barbra:]
Where you may go

[Both:]
My love's inside you, even more than you know

And I can't remember life without you
The way it used to be
Feels like a million years away

[Vince:]
Well Hold me 'til the angels sing

[Barbra:]
Tell me every little thing

[Both:]
Promise me forever from this day

If you ever leave me, will you take me with you?
If you're ever lonely, I wanna be lonely too
Woah
My home's beside you, no matter where you may go

[Vince:]
Where you may go

[Both:]
My love's inside you, even more than you know

[Barbra:]
Even more than you know

[Vince:]
Even more than you know

[Both:]
Even more than you know
Even more than you know

Élégie À Un Rat De Cave


Élégie À Un Rat De Cave
Composer(s): Georges Brassens
Performer(s): Georges Brassens



Personne n'aurait cru ce cave
Prophétisant que par malheur
Mon pauvre petit rat de cave
Tu débarquerais avant l'heure
Tu n'étais pas du genre qui vire
De bord et tous on le savait
Du genre à quitter le navire
Et tu es la premièr' qui l'aies fait

Maintenant m'amie qu'on te séquestre
Au sein des cieux
Que je m'déguise en chanteur d'orchestre
Pour tes beaux yeux
En partant m'amie je te l'assure
Tu as fichu le noir au fond de nous
Quoiqu'on n'ait pas mis de crêpe sur
Nos putains de binious
On n'm'a jamais vu, faut que tu l'notes
C'est une primeur
Faire un bœuf avec des croque-notes
C'est en ton honneur
Sache aussi qu'en écoutant Bechet
Foll' gamberge, on voit la nuit tombée
Ton fantôme qui sautille en cachette
Rue du Vieux Colombier
Ton fantôme qui sautille en cachette
Rue du Vieux Colombier

Sans aucun "au revoir mes frères"
Mais on n't'en veut pas pour autant
Mine de rien tu est allée faire
Ton trou dans les neiges d'antan
Désormais, c'est pas des salades
Parmi Flora, Jeanne, Thaïs
J'inclus ton nom à la ballade
Des belles dam's du temps jadis

Maintenant m'amie qu'ta place est faite
Chez les gentils
Qu'tu as r'trouvé pour l'éternelle fête
Papa Zutty
Chauff' la place à tous les vieux potaches
Machin, Chose, et Luter et Longnon
Et ce gras du bide de Moustache
Tes fidèl's compagnons
S'il est brave, pourquoi que Dieu le père
Là-haut ferait
Quelque différence entre Saint-Pierre
Et Saint-Germain-des-Prés
De tout cœur on espère que dans ce
Paradis miséricordieux
Brill'nt pour toi des lendemains qui dansent
Où y a pas de bon Dieu
Brill'nt pour toi des lendemains qui dansent
Où y a pas de bon Dieu

Bitte Geh' Nicht Fort


Bitte Geh' Nicht Fort ((Adapted from: Ne Me Quitte Pas (by Simone Langlois) - 1959)) Composer(s): Jacques Brel - Max Colpet Performer(s): Marlene Dietrich - 1963 Titles In Other Languages: 1961 - Laat Me Niet Alleen (by Jacques Brel) 1962 - Non Andare Via (by Gino Paoli) 1966 - If You Go Away (by Damita Jo) 1968 - Se Você Voltar (by Agnaldo Timóteo) 1984 - Ala Vetää Vaan (by Susanna Haavisto) 1990 - Não Me Deixes Mais (by Raimundo Fagner) 2002 - Non Lasciarmi Solo (by Duilio Del Prete)



Bitte geh' nicht fort!
Was ich auch getan
was ich auch gesagt
glaube nicht ein Wort!

Denk nicht mehr daran!
Oft sagt man im Streit
Worte, die man dann
später tief bereut

Dabei wollt mein Herz
ganz dein eigen sein
denn ich liebe dich
lieb nur dich allein!

Bitte geh' nicht fort!
Bitte geh' nicht fort!
Bitte geh' nicht fort!
Bitte geh' nicht fort!

Bleibe nah bei mir
gib mir deine Hand!
Ich erzähle dir
von dem fernen Land

wo man keinen Zorn
keine Tränen kennt
keine Macht der Welt
Liebende mehr trennt

Wo auf weiter Flur
blüht kein Herzeleid
wo ein Treueschwur
hält für Ewigkeit

Bitte geh' nicht fort!
Bitte geh' nicht fort!
Bitte geh' nicht fort!
Bitte geh' nicht fort!

Bitte geh' nicht fort!
Lass mich nicht allein!
Wenn du mich verlässt
stürzt der Himmel ein

Lass uns so wie einst
stumm am Fenster stehn
traumverloren sehn
wie die Nebel drehn

Bis am Himmelszelt
voll der Mond erscheint
unsre beiden Schatten
liebevoll vereint

Bitte geh' nicht fort!
Bitte geh' nicht fort!
Bitte geh' nicht fort!
Bitte geh' nicht fort!

Glaube mir ich werd'
deine Sehnsucht stillen
werd' dir jeden Wunsch
dieser Welt erfüllen

werde alles tun
was ich hab versäumt
um die Frau zu sein
die du dir erträumt

Lass mich nicht allein
ich beschwöre dich
lass mich nicht allein
denn ich liebe dich!

Bitte geh' nicht fort!
Bitte geh' nicht fort!
Bitte geh' nicht fort!
Bitte geh' nicht fort!

If You Don't Want The Goods, Don't Maul 'Em


If You Don't Want The Goods, Don't Maul 'Em
Composer(s): Cottrell
Performer(s): George Formby



Now here s a little motto song I'd like to sing to you
Some of them are very old and some of them are new
But here's one in particular, it's funny in it's way
I wonder what we'd think if we heard our ancestors say...

If you don't want the goods, don't maul 'em, don't maul 'em, don't maul 'em
If the saying old and true, you don't like it when it's said to you
"Are you going to marry my daughter sir?" said pa to Johnny Doleham
John said "No", so pa said "Go, if you don't want the goods, don't maul 'em"

Now we all learned our history when we were kids at school
We went there almost every day to learn the golden rule
King Solomon was a gay old boy, he was a lively spark
And this is what you might have heard while listening in the dark...

If you don't want the goods, don't maul 'em, don't maul 'em, don't maul 'em
King Solomon had six hundred wives and he always used to call 'em
'Till one of them turned to him, and said "If you don't want the goods, don't maul 'em"

Now Smith went to a doctor once who lived in Harley street
He said "My man, those gallstones they will drag you off your feet
Just come inside my hospital at once without delay"
He did and when they chloriformed him he was heard to say...

If you don't want the goods, don't maul 'em, don't maul em, don't maul 'em
They were just about to operate on his appendix, what do you call 'em
When he popped up his head and to the doctor said "If you don't want the goods, don't maul 'em

Now once I took my holidays and went across to France
I hadn't been there since the war, so thought I'd take a chance
I strolled along a street that they call the Bois Boulogne
And when a French girl spoke to me I shouted out this song...

If you don't want the goods, don't maul 'em, don't maul em, don't maul 'em
Now while I was in Paris I stayed in a what do you call 'em
There were notices on every wall, if you don't want the goods, don't maul 'em

Napoleon said I love my troops and whatever may befall 'em
When Josephine stood up and said "If you don't want the goods, don't maul 'em!"

If You Go


If You Go
Composer(s): Michel Emer; Geoff Parsons
Performer(s): Alan Dean
and multiple other artists



If you should go, if you should leave him alone
There'll be no spring or birds to sing
There'd be no sun to shine on him)

If you go, if you love me no more
If I know that you want me no more
Then the sun would lose its light
And day turn into night
Night without stars
Deep night without stars

If you go, if you leave me alone
If I know you're no longer my own
Winter would replace the spring
The birds no more would sing
This cannot be, stay here with me
My heart would die I know
If you should go

Winter would replace the spring
The birds no more would sing
This cannot be, oh, stay here with me
My heart would die I know
If you should go

I have given you time for spending my hours
The fine things I bought for you
The many things I’ve done for you
But now you said we are through

I taught you all the things to say
But now now you said we are through

I have given you love the days we were sharing
You were always on my mind
Please don’t leave me far behind
But now now you said we are through
If you don’t want my love

Electra


Electra
Composer(s): Phoebe Snow Performer(s): Phoebe Snow



She loved a man who was sweet and lean With a Madison Avenue scar And wherever he went to get away He took their luxury car Where can you run When the old house shakes And it's too hot to make any plans The sidewalks crack, and the whole world quakes 'Cause you know that you chose the wrong man Electra, the spirits tease High up a bluff And down on her knees She's looking down At kingdom come Come back Electra Don't jump, don't jump! With a camera, he caught the mood When a pen he caught what she thought And everything worth having he mistook For something you bought Where can you run When the old house shakes And it's too hot to make any plans The sidewalks crack, and the whole world quakes 'Cause you know that you chose the wrong man Electra, the spirits tease High up a bluff And down on her knees She's looking down At kingdom come Come back Electra Don't jump, don't jump!

If You Don't Know Me By Now


If You Don't Know Me By Now
Composer(s): Leon Huff; Kenneth Gamble
First release by: Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes - 1972
Covered by multiple other artists



If you don't know me by now
You will never never never know me

All the things that we've been through
You should understand me like I understand you
Now girl I know the difference between right and wrong
I ain't gonna do nothing to break up our happy home
Oh don't get so excited when I come home a little late at night
Cause we only act like children when we argue fuss and fight

If you don't know me by now (If you don't know me)
You will never never never know me (No you won't)
If you don't know me by now
You will never never never know me

We've all got our own funny moods
I've got mine, woman you've got yours too
Just trust in me like I trust in you
As long as we've been together it should be so easy to do
Just get yourself together or we might as well say goodbye
What good is a love affair when you can't see eye to eye, oh

If you don't know me by now (If you don't know me)
You will never never never know me (No you won't)
If you don't know me by now (You will never never never know me)
You will never never never know me (ooh)

Election Day


Election Day
Composer(s): Nick Rhodes - Simon Lebon - Christian Lebon - Roger Taylor Performer(s): Arcadia



Wild kind of look to the day
Opening eyes impale neon flickers
She moon, she turning away
The city's her slave he's cheating his mistress
She's moody and grey, she's mean and she's restless
So restless indeed

All over you as they say
Rumours or rivals yell at the strike force
Hi guys, by the way
Are you aware you're being illegal?
It's making your saviour's behaviour look evil
'scuse my timing but say
How do you fit in with this Flim Flam and Judy?

Maximum big surprise your smile is something new

I pull my shirt off and pray
Sacred and bound to suffer the heatwave
Pull my shirt off and pray
We're coming up on re-election day

Stretching your love down the way
To your invitation stretching my body
Use your intuitive play
'coz maybe we have more playtime than money

Maximum big surprise she knows something new

I pull my shirt off and play
Saving myself to suffer this heatwave
Pull my shirt off and pray
We're coming up on re-election day

Byroads and backways a lover's chance
Down wind
Cut open murmurs and sounds becalm hands on skin
Carry further entangled strands
All sing
Time, saving some time to slip away
We could dance!

Shouldn't be asking...
Wild and scheming
Could be my Election Day

Maximum big surprise you know something new

I pull my shirt off and pray
I'm sacred and bound to suffer this heatwave
Pull my shirt off and pray
We're coming up on re-election day
Re-election Day

Gotta Have Rain


Gotta Have Rain
Composer(s): Max Bygraves
Performer(s): Max Bygraves; Eydie Gormé



If you didn't have rain
Then you couldn't have flowers
You couldn't have flowers
If you didn't have showers
Nowhere to swim
There'd be no babbling brook
There'd be no fish to catch
On the end of a hook

You couldn't wash your hands and face
You'd be as black as coal
All day you'd face the barren waste
Looking for a water hose
So you gotta have rain
Every now and then
To make the whole world shine
Then every day will turn out fine

Okay kids, let's see now
Oh, if you didn't have rain
You wouldn't have (ice cream!)
If you didn't have rain
You wouldn't have (a bat!)
If you didn't have rain
Then you couldn't have (fishes!)
And you couldn't have (a swim!)
If you didn't have rain

You'd be so awfully dirty
You'd be as black as ink
All day you'd face the barren waste
Looking for a nice cool drink
So you gotta have rain
Every now and then
To make the whole world shine
Then every day will turn out fine

If you didn't have rain
Then you couldn't have flowers
You couldn't have flowers
If you didn't have showers
Nowhere to swim
There'd be no babbling brook
There'd be no fish to catch
On the end of a hook

You'd be so awfully dirty
You'd be as black as ink
All day you'd face the barren waste
Looking for a nice cool drink
So you gotta have rain
Every now and then
To make the whole world shine
Then every day will turn out fine
