Until there are no stars to shine
There’s no such thing as time
I’ll love but you

Until there are no songs to sing
There’s no such thing as spring
I’ll love but you

You were sent from heaven just for me
And you were oh! So heavenly

Until there is no moon above
There’s no such thing as love
I’ll love but you

(Orchestral Interlude)

You were sent from heaven just for me
And you were oh! So heavenly

Until there is no moon above
There’s no such thing as love
I’ll love but you

Someone (Blue)


Someone
Composer(s): Hugh Nicholson
Performer(s): Blue



Someone broke the spell that held us together
What am I supposed to do
If you knew me well then you would never
Have fallen in love with two
It's the end
If you send all your love to him
No one knows the feeling that I have down in my heart
Nobody knows like me
And I can't help revealing what I feel when we're apart
No one else can see
It's no fun anymore
I can never be sure of you
Someone broke the spell that held us together
What am I supposed to do
If you knew me well then you would never
Have fallen in love with two
Fallen in love with two
Fallen, fallen in love with two

Until I Met You


Until I Met You
Composer(s): Freddie Green; Don Wolf
Performer(s): Tony Bennett;
and various other artists



I used to be so fancy free but really lonesome as can be
Till one lucky day you came my way

I never knew what love was all about
Until I met you
I used to think there'd never be a girl who'd ever care for me
Then what do you know you made it so
I never knew what love was all about
Until I met you

When you kissed me
I felt the seasons change from winter to Spring
When you kissed me
I lost my reason cause I heard the birds sing
I felt like a king
And now I have to rub my eyes each time I try to realize
That your love is mine ain't it just fine
I never knew what love was all about
Until I met you
Since I found you I feel the entire universe reel

I never knew what love was all about
Until I met you
I'm the happiest boy cause you bring me nothing but joy
I never knew what love was all about
Until I met you

When you kissed me
I felt the seasons change from winter to Spring
When you kissed me
I lost my reason cause I heard the birds sing
I felt like a king
And now I have to rub my eyes each time I try to realize
That your love is mine ain't it just fine

I never knew what love was all about
Until I met you
I never knew what love was all about
Until I met you
I never knew what love was all about
Until I met you

Someone (Air Supply)


Someone
Composer(s): Graham Russell - Guy Allison
Performer(s): Air Supply



When you first found love
Was it all that you had wanted
For a thousand lonely years
Was the memory so sweet
Now your scented touch brings me
Back to the enchanted
All shadows fade away
The gypsy is complete

Someone is walking beside me
Someone is waiting till I say yes I do
Someone is living inside me
Giving me all that I need and I need you
Someone to cry on my shoulder
I just want to stay here forever

From the secret pool
Did I stare at your reflection
Let the water wash away all the battle
From my soul
For the bride of spring,
Do I swear to your protection
Today will be the day that never shall
Grow old

Someone is walking beside me
Someone is waiting till I say yes I do
Someone is living inside me
Giving me all that I need and I need you
Someone to cry on my shoulder
I just want to stay here forever

Silence broken and the blackbird is free
Only your voice can I hear, speak to me

Someone is walking beside me
Someone is waiting till I say yes I do
Someone is living inside me
Giving me all that I need and I need you
Someone to cry on my shoulder
I just want to stay here forever

Undercover Angel


Undercover Angel
Composer(s): Alan O'Day
Performer(s): Alan O'Day



Yeah yeah

Cryin' on my pillow
Lonely in my bed
Then I heard a voice beside me
And she softly said
"Thunder is your night light
"Magic is your dream"
And as I held her
She said, "See what I mean?"

I said "Whaaaat?"
She said "Ooo-ooo-ooo-wee"
I said "All right!"
She said "Love me, love me, love me"

Undercover angel
Midnight fantasy
I never had a dream that made sweet love to me
Undercover angel
The answer to my prayer
You made me know that there's a love for me out there

(Somewhere)
Yeah, somewhere

Heavenly surrender
Sweet afterglow
Undercover)
Givin' up my heart to you
Now, angel, don't go
She said, "Go find the right one
"Love her and then
"When you look into her eyes
"You'll see me again"

I said "Whaaaat?"
She said "Ooo-ooo-ooo-wee"
I said "All right!"
She said "Love me, love me, love me"

Undercover angel
Midnight fantasy
I never had a dream that made sweet love to me
Undercover angel
The answer to my prayer
You made me know that there's a love for me out there

(Somewhere)
Oh, somewhere

Now you know my story
And girl, if it's right
I'm gonna take you in my arms
And love you tonight
Underneath the covers
The answer lies
Lookin' for my angel
In your sweet lovin' eyes

She said, "Whaaat?"
I said, "Ooo-oo-oo-wee"
She said, "All right!"
I said, "Love me, love me, love me"
She said, "Whaaat?"
I said, "Ooo-oo-oo-wee"
She said, "All right!"
I said, "Love me, love me, love me"

Undercover angel
Midnight fantasy
I never had a dream that made sweet love to me
Undercover angel
The answer to my prayer

Love me, love me, love me

Undercover angel
Midnight fantasy
I never had a dream that made sweet love to me
Undercover angel
The answer to my prayer
You made me know that there's a love for me out there

The Real Me (Kiev Connolly)


The Real Me
Composer(s): Kiev Connolly
First performance by: Kiev Connolly & The Missing Passengers - 1989



I call my baby and she tells me that she's leavin'
And this time it's for good
I can't believe her and I'm sure that there is something
That I've misunderstood
Yeah, yeah

When she's gone, I'll be standin' here in the rain
When she's gone, well, the sun won't shine anyway

Can't you see that it's the real me?
Take me as I am or let me be
Come to me, discover me
Oh, take my hand and you will see it's me

You know the feeling when you're needing
And your heart is cold
If there's a reason or a meaning
Then I ain't been told
Yeah, yeah

When she's gone, I'll be standin' here in the rain
When she's gone, well, the sun won't shine anyway

Can't you see that it's the real me?
Take me as I am or let me be
Come to me, discover me
Oh, take my hand and you will see it's me

Real me, it's the real me
Real me, it's the real me

Can't you see that it's the real me?
Take me as I am or let me be
Come to me, discover me
Oh, take my hand and you will see it's me

Mmm... can't you see that it's the real me?
Take me as I am or let me be
Come to me, discover me
Oh, take my hand and you will see it's me

Mmm... can't you see that it's the real me?
Take me as I am or let me be
Come to me, discover me
Oh, take my hand and...

Underdog


Underdog
(Theme Song)
Composer(s): W. Watts Biggers;
Treadwell Covington;
Joseph Harris; Chester Stover
Performer(s): Butthole Surfers



There's no need to fear! Underdog is here!

When criminals in this world appear
And break the laws that they should fear
And frighten all who see or hear
The cry goes up both far and near
For Underdog! Underdog! Underdog! Underdog!

Speed of lightning, roar of thunder
Fighting all who rob or plunder
Underdog
Underdog!

When in this world the headlines read
Of those whose hearts are filled with greed
Who rob and steal from those who need
To right this wrong with blinding speed
Goes Underdog! Underdog! Underdog! Underdog!

Speed of lightning, roar of thunder
Fighting all who rob or plunder
Underdog
Underdog!

Someday, Someway


Someday, Someway
Composer(s): Brian Holland - Lamont Dozier - Freddy Gorman
Performer(s): The Marvelettes



Wo wo oh, wo wo oh

Someday, someway
I'm gonna tell you how much you mean to me
Not now, not for a little while
I've gotta make sure that your love is good
So you won't take advantage of me
Capture my heart & set me free

Someday, someway
When you prove to me that it's true love that you feel for me
Then I'll, then I'll know that your love is pure and I'll be sure
That you won't take advantage of me
Capture my heart and set me free
(Not now, not now)

Not for a little while
I hate to take a chance & lose a perfect romance
I know you wonder how long it will be
Before I tell you how much you mean to me
But before I let myself go, I just gotta know
If your love, dear, is really real

Someday, someway
Wo wo oh, wo wo oh ...

Underneath Hawaiian Skies


Underneath Hawaiian Skies
Composer(s): Ernie Erdman; Fred Rose



Where the tropic breezes play
where the palm trees bend and sway
there a lonely maiden sighs underneath Hawaiian skies
Every night beneath the moon you can hear a lonesome croon
calling out across the bay, to her lover far away

Moonbeams kiss the silvry sand, where they wandered, hand in hand
tears be-dim two soft brown eyes, underneath Hawaiian skies
Sweet Hawaiian melodies, bring to her fond memories
of a love that used to be, as she calls across the sea

Come back to the shores of Honolulu
I'm so lonely here without you, underneath Hawaiian skies
tell me am I waiting all in vain, dear?
say you're coming back again dear, to a land that's paradise
(Can't you hear me calling?)
Come back where each tiny star that twinkles
and each steel guitar that tinkles breathes of love that never dies
sometime I just know you'll be returning
to a heart that's always yearning, underneath Hawaiian skies

Underneath The Arches


Underneath The Arches
Composer(s): Bud Flanagan; Joseph McCarthy
Performer(s): Flanagan & Allen;
and various other artists



Underneath the arches
We dream our dreams away
Underneath the arches
On cobblestones we lay

Every night you'll find us
Tired out and worn
Happy when the daylight comes creeping
Heralding the dawn

Sleeping when it's raining
And sleeping when it's fine
Trains travelling
By above

Pavement is our pillow
No matter where we stray
Underneath the arches
We dream our dreams away

Spoken:
Chesney Allen: Lovely melody, Bud. Do you remember when we first sang it?
Bud Flanagan: Yes, Ches. We used to sit on a seat with the Thames
Embankment behind us. You had a newspaper and read the headlines.
Chesney: That's quite right, Bud. I've still got that paper. D'you
remember the date? Nineteen hundred and twenty-six.
Bud: Ches, read those headlines again.
Chesney: Ah, here's one. Gertrude Edderley, eighteen-year-old American.
First woman to swim The Channel.
Bud: Listen to this. Cricket. Ashes for England after fourteen years.
Chesney: Irish woman, Violet Gibson, shoots Mussolini in the nose.
Bud: Oh! listen. Churchill's unpopular budget. Five per-cent tax on all legal bets.
Chesney: Charlie Chaplin not to retire.
Bud: Second time in history, Atlantic flown by three Spaniards.
Chesney: Here's one. Death of Barbara La Marr, film actress with five husbands.
Bud: BBC asks for nine shillings instead of seven-and-six for wireless licence.
Chesney: Hopes of return to penny post.
Bud: Listen to this, Ches. Bookmakers in a bad way.
Chesney: Ah, that'll be the day, Bud...........Well, things are a little
different now, aren't they?
Bud: They certainly are and if they keep on improvin' like they're
doin' now, you'll know where we'll be......back again......

Sleeping when it's raining
And sleeping when it's fine
Trains rattling
By above

Pavement is our pillow
No matter where we stray
Underneath the arches
We dream our dreams away

Someday, One Day


Someday, One Day
Composer(s): Dale Hawkins - Roy Buchanan - Johnny Mathis
Performer(s): Dale Hawkins



La-da-da-dum, la-da-da-dee-dum
(Aaaah-aaaah)
Someday (one day), one day (someday)
You'll cry
And someday (one day), one day (someday)
You'll pay for every little lie
But someday (one day), one day (someday)
It's a-gonna be too late

Because I trusted in you, when I gave you my heart
But you left me so blue
But someday baby-baby you're gonna find out
Your heart can be broken too

And someday (one day), one day (someday)
You're gonna miss me
And someday (one day), one day (someday)
Oh, you're sure gonna wanna-wanna kiss me
But someday (one day), one day (someday)
It's a-gonna be too late

Someday (one day), one day (someday)
You're gonna cry
And someday (one day), one day (someday)
You're gonna pay for every lie
But someday (one day), one day (someday)
It's a-gonna be too late

Understand Your Man


Understand Your Man
Composer(s): Johnny Cash
Performer(s): Johnny Cash;
and various other artists



Don't call my name out your window, I'm leavin'
I won't even turn my head
Don't send your kinfolk to give me no talkin'
I'll be gone, like I said

You just say the same old things that you been sayin' all along
Lay there in your bed and keep your mouth shut till I'm gone
Don't give me that old familiar cryin', cussin' moan
Understand your man

Now, you can give my other suit to the Salvation Army
And everything else I leave behind
I ain't takin' nothin' that'll slow down my travelin'
While I'm untanglin' my mind

Now, I ain't gonna repeat what I said anymore
While I'm breathin' air that ain't been breathed before
I'll be just as gone as the wild goose in winter
Understand your man
Meditate on it
Understand your man
I'm tired of your bad-mouthin'
Understand your man

Avrei Voluto


Avrei Voluto
Composer(s): Franco Fasano - Franco Ciani - Fabrizio Berlincioni
First performance by: Anna Oxa & Fausto Leali - 1989



Avrei voluto parlarti
Per convincerti a fare sul serio
Tu che giocavi col cuore e con le parole
Quanto tempo buttato per riuscire a spiegarti
Che ti amavo davvero
Non ci siamo inventati
Non ci siamo cercati
Non ci siamo mai persi, persi

Avrei voluto guardarti
E intuire ogni tuo desiderio
Regalarti un sospiro anche stando lontano
Perché avevo paura che riuscissi a vedere
Come un lampo negli occhi, un amore sincero
Si accartoccia la rabbia
Come frecce di carta
Quando incontrano il muro

Avrei voluto io di più
Ti avrei voluto anch'io

Avrei voluto legarti
Per poterti ogni giorno guardare
Per cambiare il cammino
Strada del nostro destino
E ancorarti al mio seno per non farti portare
Da una vita che vola
Ferma il cuore un momento
A quei giorni d'inverno e si scioglierà il ghiaccio
E si scioglierà il ghiaccio
E si scioglierà il ghiaccio

Avrei voluto inseguirti
Ma l'orgoglio non è mai veloce
È soltanto un pretesto per coprire un errore
Anche quando scoprivo che era il nostro domani
Che voleva far pace
Quella ruga sul viso che chiamavi 'espressione'
Ora è il letto di un fiume
Quante notti a pensare?
Quante lacrime amare
Han bagnato l'anima?

Avrei voluto io di più
Avrei voluto io di più
Avrei voluto io di più
Ti avrei voluto anch'io

Undun


Undun
Composer(s): Randy Bachman
Performer(s): The Guess Who;
Hennie Bekker; Burton Cummings; Kurt Elling;
Ranee Lee; Laura Martier; Sophie Milman



She's come undun
She didn't know what she was headed for
And when I found what she was headed for
It was too late

She's come undun
She found a mountain that was far too high
And when she found out she couldn't fly
It was too late

It's too late
She's gone too far
She's lost the sun

She's come undun
She wanted truth but all she got was lies
Came the time to realize
And it was too late

She's come undun
She didn't know what she was headed for
And when I found what she was headed for
Mama, it was too late

It's too late
She's gone too far
She's lost the sun
She's come undun

Too many mountains, and not enough stairs to climb
Too many churches and not enough truth
Too many people and not enough eyes to see
Too many lives to lead and not enough time

It's too late
She's gone too far
She's lost the sun

She's come undun
Doe-doe-doe-doe-doe doe un doe-doe-doe un doe-doe-doe
Doe doe-doe-doe-doe un doe-doe-doe doe-doe-doe
Doe doe-doe-doe doe doe-doe-doe doe doe

------ flute ------

It's too late
She's gone too far
She's lost the sun

She's come undun
She didn't know what she was headed for
And when I found what she was headed for
It was too late

She's come undun
She found a mountain that was far too high
And when she found out she couldn't fly
Mama, it was too late

It's too late
She's gone too far
She's lost the sun

She's come undun
No no-no-no-no-no no
Doe doe doe-doe

Someday you'll be sorry
The way you treated me was wrong
I was the one who taught you all you know
Your friends have told you to make me sing another song

So good luck may be with you
And for the future have no fears
There won't be another to treat you like a brother
Someday you'll be sorry dear

Une Chanson Douce


Une Chanson Douce (aka Le Loup, La Biche Et Le Chevalier) ((Other French Version: Le Moteur À Explosion (by Chanson Plus Bifluorée) - 1992)) ((Portuguese Version: A Sereia E O Pescador (by Trio Esperança) - 1999)) Composer(s): Maurice Pon - Henri Salvador First release by: Henri Salvador - 1957 Covered by multiple other artists



Une chanson douce
Que me chantait ma maman
En suçant mon pouce
J'écoutais en m'endormant
Cette chanson douce
Je veux la chanter pour toi
Car ta peau est douce
Comme la mousse des bois

La petite biche est aux bois
Dans le bois, se cache le loup
Ouh, ouh, ouh ouh!
Mais le brave chevalier passa
Il prit la biche dans ses bras
La, la, la, la

La petite biche
Ce sera toi, si tu veux
Le loup, on s'en fiche
Contre lui, nous serons deux
Une chanson douce
Que me chantait ma maman
Une chanson douce
Pour tous les petits enfants

O le joli conte que voilà
La biche, en femme, se changea
La, la, la, la
Et dans les bras du beau chevalier
Belle princesse elle est restée
eh, eh, eh, eh

La jolie princesse
Avait tes jolis cheveux
La même caresse
Se lit au fond de tes yeux
Cette chanson douce
Je veux la chanter aussi
Pour toi, ô ma douce
Jusqu'à la fin de ma vie
Jusqu'à la fin de ma vie

{Variante pour les 2 derniers:}

O le joli conte que voilà
La biche, en femme, se changea
La, la, la, la
Et dans les bras du beau chevalier
Belle princesse elle est restée
À tout jamais

Une chanson douce
Que me chantait ma maman
En suçant mon pouce
J'écoutais en m'endormant
Cette chanson douce
Je veux la chanter aussi
Pour toi, ô ma douce
Jusqu'à la fin de ma vie
Jusqu'à la fin de ma vie

Voltarei


Voltarei
First performance by: Dora - 1988



Não faz mal
Não digas mais
Nem me venhas com histórias do costume

Tudo bem
Vamos brincar
Ao jogo do amor e do ciúme

Vamos começar assim
É agora a tua vez
Estou aqui e não me vês porque andas cego

Já não estou onde tu estás
Procurei noutro lugar
Talvez na lua ou no mar da minha cama

1, 2, 3, vou começar
É a minha vez de jogar
Mas só para não te encontrar vou perder

Fingi que tenho outro amor
Para por no teu lugar
Agora fico a ganhar por 2 a...

...1 sem ti
Mas fiquei sem ti
Por te amar assim
Quem ri melhor chora no fim

O jogo já terminou
A noite também passou
Quem perdeu ou quem ganhou eu já esqueci

Jogo de sorte e de azar
O amor é como o mar
Tem marés de ir e voltar e eu...

...voltarei p'ra ti
Voltarei p'ra ti
Esperarei por ti
Voltarás p'ra mim

Esperarei por ti
Voltarei p'ra ti
Sofrerei por ti
Quem ri melhor chora no fim

Une Chanson Signée "Je T'Aime"


Une Chanson Signée "Je T'Aime"
Composer(s): Michel Jourdan;
Jean-Jacques Kravetz; Paul Kravetz
Performer(s): Mireille Mathieu



Notre histoire n'est pas finie pour moi
Rien ne change même si tu n'est plus là
J'ai besoin oui encore un peu
de m'inventer une suite à nous deux

Là où près de moi tu t'éveillais
j'ai toujours laissé ton oreiller
il y a même sur le piano une de tes photos...

J'ai besoin de m'inventer un rêve pour exister
Moi, depuis que tu m'oublies je triche avec ma vie...
Plus question que tu reviennes
pourtant mon cœur t'envoie quand-même
une chanson... signée... "je t'aime"

Même si je dîne en solitaire
il m'arrive de mettre ton couvert
et ainsi, à la nuit tombée
j'ai l'impression que tu vas rentrer

Vainement je guette le facteur
les messages sur mon répondeur
Et pourtant, depuis qu't'es plus là,
c'est plus fort que moi

J'ai besoin de m'inventer un rêve pour exister
Moi, depuis que tu m'oublies je triche avec ma vie...
Plus question que tu reviennes
pourtant mon cœur t'envoie quand-même
une chanson... signée... "je t'aime"

Dis-moi qu'c'est pas trop tard
je t'en supplie, dis-moi qu'il reste un espoir
Je m'accroche partout à ce qui fut nous
Il faut dire que mon cœur se déchire...

J'ai besoin de m'inventer un rêve pour exister
Moi, depuis que tu m'oublies je triche avec ma vie...
Plus question que tu reviennes
pourtant mon cœur t'envoie quand-même
une chanson... signée... "je t'aime"
une chanson... signée... "je t'aime"

Someday We're Gonna Love Again


Someday We're Gonna Love Again
Composer(s): McMahan
Performer(s): The Searchers
and multiple other artists



Someday we're gonna love again
Someday we're gonna love again

When we broke up I still wore a smile
I told myself you'd only gone for a while
But in my heart I grinned, I held up my chin
Because I knew someday we're gonna love again
Someday we're gonna love again

Someday we're gonna love again
Someday we're gonna love again

I didn't worry 'bout it when you left
I knew that I could take care of myself
You wouldn't be gone long and nothin' could go wrong
Because I knew someday we're gonna love again
Someday we're gonna love again

Someday we're gonna love again
Someday we're gonna love again

You just told me that your love hasn't changed
And that's why I'd like to arrange to see you again
I don't know when but I do know that someday we're gonna love again
Someday we're gonna love again

Someday we're gonna love again
Someday we're gonna love again
