Sleep warm, sleep tight, when you turn off the light
Sleep warm, sleep well, my love

Sweet dreams of me, my love
Close your eyes now and kiss me, and whisper you miss me
Sleep tight, sleep well, sleep warm

Tant que cette eau coulera doucement
Vers ce ruisseau qui borde la prairie
Je t'aimerai, me répétait Sylvie
L'eau coule encore, elle a changé pourtant

Chagrin d'amour dure toute la vie

Sleep Song
Sleep Song
Composer(s): Jorma Kaukonen
Performer(s): Hot Tuna
Sure a lot smaller every day. Wonder why we feel this way
You don't know that I've got nothing left to say
I've been blown across the water like a ship ain't got no sail
That ain't no way to feel
I feel that longing loud and clear. Dead end streets and I lay here
When your flying you've got nothing left to fear
I've been blown across the water like a ship ain't got no sail
That ain't no way to feel
Winter wind keeps blowing through the trees
But life keeps breathing gaily as you please
Hey now silver birches lying by the road
Branches lined against the winter snow
We left the shelter yesterday. After we had played all day
You can find that I've got nothing left to say
'Less your blowing cross the water like a ship ain't got no sail
That ain't not way to feel
'Less your blowing cross the water like a ship ain't got no sail
That ain't no way to feel

Plain Jane
Plain Jane
Composer(s): Doc Pomus; Mort Shuman
Performer(s): Bobby Darin
My plain Jane never wear no lipstick or paint
You know she'll never try to be what she ain't
Come early in the mornin' you can hear the fella's call (woo!)
Plain Jane won't cha come out tonight so we can have a ball
(Yes, sir now)
Plain Jane won't cha come out tonight, come out tonight, come out tonight
Plain Jane won't cha come out tonight, spend some time with me
Her mouth's a little too wide and her nose a wee bit long
And when you take a good look at her her shape seems all wrong
But she got this little somethin' that's so hard to define
And I wish that little somethin' was mine, all mine, all mine! (woo!)
And ol' Plain Jane won't cha come out tonight, come out tonight, come out tonight
Plain Jane won't cha come out tonight, spend some time with me
(Oh, wee!)
(Oh, Yeah!)
I used to go with glamor girls to worship day and night
But Plain Jane has a cotton dress and it don't fit her right
Icould never, never tell 'ya why I love her like I do
But if you took her out one fine night, you'd feel the same way I do
(won't cha now)
Plain Jane won't cha come out tonight, come out tonight, come out tonight
Plain Jane won't cha come out tonight, spend some time with me
I say, spend some time with me
Woo!, Plain Jane
I love her just the same
Oh.... Plain Jane.....

Sleep, sleep, sleep
How we love to sleep
At the close of day
When the joys of the day fade away
And the mem'ries sweet

In our dreams they creep
While we sleep, sleep, sleep

How we love to sleep
At the close of day
When the joys of the day fade away
And the mem'ries sweet
Of the days repeat
In our dreams they creep
While we sleep, sleep, sleep

Places That Belong To You
Places That Belong To You
Composer(s): James Newton Howard; Alan Bergman; Marilyn Bergman
Performer(s): Barbra Streisand;
and various other artists
Mornings, Evenings
Days that hurry past
Dreams that should have lasted
Moments, Hours
Slipping by as we
Told each other secrets
Somehow
I'll never let go of the memories
Something always seems
To remind me
Of how it was
Of what it was
What it was
All there was
Laughter, Love songs
Footsteps that I hear
Make me think you're near me
Poems, pictures
Letters never mailed
Boats that never sailed
Remember
That even though we can't be together
We're more for having loved one another
We shared the sky
We learnt to fly
Someday when someone else's arms are around us
When time has put some distance between us
The years will kindly show
Our memories come and go
They ebb and flow like the tide
There are quiet places in my heart
Ever since we parted
Gentle, tender
Traces of a song
Places that belong to you

You could have a steam train
if you'd just lay down your tracks

'cos I will be your honey bee

you'd better call the sledgehammer
put your mind at rest
I'm going to be - the sledgehammer
this can be my testimony
I'm your sledgehammer
let there be no doubt about it

I've kicked the habit
shed my skin
this is the new stuff

it's what we're doing, doing

Places In My Past
Places In My Past
Composer(s): James Taylor
Performer(s): James Taylor; Eric Kloss
There are ladies in my life
Lovely ladies in these lazy days
And though I never took a wife
May I say that I have loved me one or two
Of the people in my past
Fading faces in a waking dream
And though they never seemed to last very long
There are faces I remember
From the places in my past
I said, all the dead-head miles
And the insincere smiles
Sometimes I can laugh and cry and I can't remember why
But I still love those
good times gone by
Hold on to them close or let them go
I don't know
I just seem to sing these songs
And say I'm sorry for the friends I used to know

Tell her I'll be waiting
in the usual place
with the tired and weary
and there's no escape
To need a women

how the strong get weak
and the rich get poor
Slave to love
Oh Oh
Slave to love
You're running with me
don't touch the ground

The sky is burning
a sea of flame
though your world is changing
I will be the same
Slave to love

Slave to love
Slave to love

And I can't escape
I'm a slave to love
Can you help me?

we're too young to reason
too grown to dream
Now spring is turning
your face to mine
I can hear your laughter
I can see your smile
Slave to love

And I can't escape
I'm a slave to love

Place To Be
Place To Be
Composer(s): Nick Drake
Performer(s): Nick Drake
When I was younger, younger than before
I never saw the truth hanging from the door
And now I'm older see it face to face
And now I'm older gotta get up clean the place
And I was green, greener than the hill
Where the flowers grew and the sun shone still
Now I'm darker than the deepest sea
Just hand me down, give me a place to be
And I was strong, strong in the sun
I thought I'd see when day is done
Now I'm weaker than the palest blue
Oh, so weak in this need for you

Junger Tag
Junger Tag
First performance by: Gitte Hænning - 1973
Die Dunkelheit mit ihren Sorgen
Flieht vor dem Tag zu den Sternen hinauf
Das erste Licht ruft nach dem Morgen
Und die Sonne geht auf
Junger Tag, ich frage dich
Was ist dein Geschenk an mich?
Bringst du Tränen von gestern zurück
Oder neue Liebe und neues Glück?
Dreh' dich um und zeig dein Gesicht
Junger Tag, enttäusche mich nicht
Durch Zeit und Raum fliegen die Träume
Und kämpfen noch mit den Schatten der Nacht
Doch Sonnenlicht fällt durch die Bäume
Und die Erde erwacht
Junger Tag, ich frage dich
Was ist dein Geschenk an mich?
Bringst du Tränen von gestern zurück
Oder neue Liebe und neues Glück?
Dreh' dich um und zeig dein Gesicht
Junger Tag, enttäusche mich nicht
Junger Tag, was bringt der Wind
Wenn ein neues Licht beginnt?
Bringt er Tränen von gestern zurück
Oder neue Liebe und neues Glück?
Ich bitte dich, erzähle es mir
Junger Tag, dann vertraue ich dir
Junger Tag, dann vertraue ich dir
Junger Tag, dann vertraue ich dir

Pizzaiolo
Pizzaiolo
Composer(s): Claude Barzotti; L. D'Alché
Performer(s): Claude Barzotti
Il a quitté sa terre natale
Tous ses parents et ses amis
Par une nuit remplie d'étoiles
Entre Sorrente et Amalfi...
Dans sa valise un idéal
Qui l'a améné à Paris
Tout en haut de la rue Pigalle
Par un matin mouillé de pluie...
Il ne savait pas à quel point
Il avait de l'or dans ses mains
Et tenait ça de son grand- père
De faire sauter la pâte en l'air
{Refrain:}
Pizzaiolo! dai! dai! plus haut!
Criaient en coeur tous les enfants
En courant vers lui en chantant!
Pizzaiolo! dai! dai! plus haut!
Toutes les femmes venaient pour lui
Laissant derrière elles leur mari...
Il était grand, il était beau
Il sentait bon le pain tout chaud
Elles l'appelaient Rigoletto
Au petit restaurant "chez tony"
Où il commença un lundi
Il remplaça un vieux serveur
Parti se marier à l'Equateur...
Le soir quand il rentrait chez lui
Les plus jolies filles de la nuit
Voulaient toutes l'installer chez elles
Dans les parfums et la dentelle...
Il préférait sous les étoiles
Rêver seul de sa terre natale
En compagnie de son grand-père
Et faire sauter la pâte en l'air...
{Refrain:}
Pizzaiolo! dai! dai! plus haut!
Criaient en coeur tous les enfants
En courant vers lui en chantant!
Pizzaiolo! dai! dai! plus haut!
Toutes les femmes venaient pour lui
Laissant derrière elles leur mari...
Il était grand, il était beau
Il sentait bon le pain tout chaud
Elles l'appelaient Rigoletto
Mais un jour un Napolitain
Roi de l'olive et du raisin
Commanda une regina
Vous devinez ce qu'arriva...
Le succés fut phénoménal
On vint de Londres de Montrèal
Et on livra sur des motos
Une pizza Rigoletto
{Refrain:}
Pizzaiolo! dai! dai! plus haut!
Criaient en coeur tous les enfants
En courant vers lui en chantant
Pizzaiolo! dai! dai! plus haut!
Toutes les femmes venaient pour lui
Laissant derrière elles leur mari...
Pizzaiolo...

Zoom zoom zoom zoom
The world is in a mess
With politics and taxes
And people grinding axes
There's no happiness
Zoom zoom zoom zoom
Rhythm lead your ace
The future doesn't fret me
If I can only get me
Someone to slap that bass
Happiness is not a riddle
When I'm listening to that
Big bass fiddle
Slap that bass
Slap it till it's dizzy
Slap that bass
Keep the rhythm busy
Zoom zoom zoom
Misery, you've got to go
Slap that bass
Use it like a tonic
Slap that bass
Keep your philharmonic
Zoom zoom zoom
And the milk and honey'll flow
Dictators would be better off
If they zoom zoom now and then
Today, you can see that the happiest men
All got rhythm
In which case
If you want a bauble
Slap that bass
Slap away your trouble
Learn to zoom zoom zoom
Slap that bass
Dictators would be better off
If they zoom zoom now and then
Today, you can see that the happiest men
All got rhythm
In which case
If you want a bauble
Slap that bass

Pizza Pie
Pizza Pie
Composer(s): Norman Fox
Performer(s): Norman Fox
Well, we were standing on the sidewalk
Just admiring the view
And we thought that we would go down down
And find something to do
And we saw this place upon the corner
And it looked real swell
So we opened the door, we went inside
This is what we yelled
Now pizza pie-i-i-i-i-i-i-i
Hey pizza pie-i-i-i-i-i-i-i
Well, I got a chick I really dig
I'm gonna love her all of my life
I'm gonna take her home and marry her
And keep her for my wife
And when the people come and ask me the question
I'm a-gonna tell them why
'Cause she stands in the kitchen
And makes me all those great big pizza pies
Now pizza pie-i-i-i-i-i-i-i
Hey pizza pie-i-i-i-i-i-i-i
Well-oh-well-oh-well, the time went by, we had some kids
And they're the apple of my eye
And they're growing big and strong and tall
They got their heads right up to the sky
And some may wonder why they're so healhty
This is my reply
'Cause they were born in bread and always fed
On great big pizza pie
Now pizza pie-i-i-i-i-i-i-i
Hey pizza pie-i-i-i-i-i-i-i
Well-oh-well-oh-well, now I'm getting old
Hey brother, and I'm getting ready to die
But there's one request that I must make
Before I hit the sky
And that request is something no man in his right mind
Did not deny
'Cause when they put me six feet under
I'm taking a great big pizza pie
Now pizza pie-i-i-i-i-i-i-i
Hey pizza pie-i-i-i-i-i-i-i
Hey pizza pie-i-i-i-i-i-i-i

Tourada
Tourada
Composer(s): Fernando Tordo; Ary dos Santos
First performance by: Fernando Tordo - 1973
Não importa sol ou sombra
camarotes ou barreiras
toureamos ombro a ombro
as feras
Ninguém nos leva ao engano
toureamos mano a mano
só nos podem causar dano
espera
Entram guizos chocas e capotes
e mantilhas pretas
entram espadas chifres e derrotes
e alguns poetas
entram bravos cravos e dichotes
porque tudo o mais
são tretas
Entram vacas depois dos forcados
que não pegam nada
Soam brados e olés dos nabos
que não pagam nada
e só ficam os peões de brega
cuja profissão
não pega
Com bandarilhas de esperança
afugentamos a fera
estamos na praça
da Primavera
Nós vamos pegar o mundo
pelos cornos da desgraça
e fazermos da tristeza
graça
Entram velhas doidas e turistas
entram excursões
entram benefícios e cronistas
entram aldrabões
entram marialvas e coristas
entram galifões
de crista
Entram cavaleiros à garupa
do seu heroísmo
entra aquela música maluca
do passodoblismo
entra a aficionada e a caduca
mais o snobismo
e cismo...
Entram empresários moralistas
entram frustrações
entram antiquários e fadistas
e contradições
e entra muito dólar muita gente
que dá lucro as milhões
E diz o inteligente
que acabaram asa canções

Composer(s): Chico Buarque; Francis Hime
Performer(s): Chico Buarque; Francis Hime
No sinal fechado
Ele vende chiclete
Capricha na flanela
E se chama Pelé
Pinta na janela
Batalha algum trocado
Aponta um canivete
E até
Dobra a Carioca, olerê
Desce a Frei Caneca, olará
Se manda pra Tijuca
Sobe o Borel
Meio se maloca
Agita numa boca
Descola uma mutuca
E um papel
Sonha aquela mina, olerê
Prancha, parafina, olará
Dorme gente fina
Acorda pinel
Zanza na sarjeta
Fatura uma besteira
E tem as pernas tortas
E se chama Mané
Arromba uma porta
Faz ligação direta
Engata uma primeira
E até
Dobra a Carioca, olerê
Desce a Frei Caneca, olará
Se manda pra Tijuca
Na contramão
Dança pára-lama
Já era pára-choque
Agora ele se chama
Emersão
Sobe no passeio, olerê
Pega no recreio, olará
Não se liga em freio
Nem direção
No sinal fechado
Ele transa chiclete
E se chama pivete
E pinta na janela
Capricha na flanela
Descola uma bereta
Batalha na sarjeta
E tem as pernas tortas

Skyliner
Composer(s): Charlie Barnet
Performer(s): The Manhattan Transfer
I'm hurrying home to you
I'm through with being lonely
I'm hurrying home to you
Don'cha know you're my one and only
Fast fast travelin' fast dear
The quarrels of the past we'll keep 'em in the past
(Higher Higher Ever Higher)
Skyliner Skyliner
flying so freely
We seem to really touch heaven
Sunbeams all dance on your
wings where the light falls
And then when night calls
Stars giving a show for the people below the sky
(I'll get home sooner if the)
Jet streams behind me
memories remind me
Your love will guide me
Skyliner fly
(Right to your lover and then)
You'll hold him closely
And sing to him sweetly
Skyliner Skyliner
A silver stream that's crystallized
Shining its rays across the sky
('n bye and bye the clouds roll by)
Why don't we dig that crazy kingdom in the sky, that
Hi-fly swinging in the Sky-liner
Just forgetting the troubles below me
Flyin' in the sky
It's a natural kind of high
When you're ridin' in the atmosphere
The steadily movin' ozone
will direct you to this song you want to hear
Hey (you dig me) If I'm dreaming shake me(better believe it)
Say (you wig me) If I'm sleeping wake me
It's a little short time now upon this place
We're workin' a lot n' frettin' about
The who have n' who have not
So please just take a moment out
And move a little closer
We will sing this song and try to make you happy
Giving a show for the people below as we fly
Hearing the beat of the motors repeat with a sigh
(And so we're riding on the)
Skyliner Skyliner
(I'm hurrying home to you, I'm through with being lonely)
flying so freely
(I'm hurrying home to you, don'cha
know you're my one and only)
We seem to really touch heaven
(Fast fast hurrying fast
dear-the quarrels of the past we'll keep 'em in the past)
Sunbeams all dance on your
(I'm gonna be holdin' you, And now I'm feelin' jumpy)
wings where the light falls
(I'm gonna be holdin' you, I don't care if the ride gets bumpy)
Then when the night calls (Fast fast travelin' fast dear)

Più Su
Più Su
Composer(s): Renato Zero
Performer(s): Renato Zero
E poi
di colpo eccomi qua
sarei arrivato io
in vetta al sogno mio
com'è lontano ieri
e poi
più in alto e ancora su
fino a sfiorare dio
e gli domando io
signore
perché mi trovo qui se non conosco amore
sboccia un fiore malgrado nessuno lo annaffierà
mentre l'aquila fiera in segreto a morire andrà
il poeta si strugge al ricordo di una poesia
questo tempo affamato consuma la mia allegria
canto e piango pensando che un uomo si butta via
che un drogato è soltanto un malato di nostalgia
che una madre si arrende un bambino non nascerà
che potremo restare abbracciati all'eternità
e poi ti ritrovo qui
puntuale al posto tu
tu spettatore vuoi davvero
che io viva il sogno che
non osi vivere te
questa vita ti sfugge se tu non la fermerai
se qualcuno sorride tu non tradirlo mai
la speranza è una musica antica e un motivo in più
canterai e piangerai insieme a me dimmi lo vuoi tu
sveleremo al nemico quel poco di lealtà
insegneremo i perdono a chi dimenticare non sa
la paura che senti è la stessa che provo io
canterai e piangerai insieme a me
fratello mio
più su
più su
più su
ed io mi calerò
nel ruolo che ormai è mio
finché ci crederò
finché ce la farò
più su
più su
più su
fino a sposare il blu
fino a sentire che
ormai sei parte di me
più su
più su
