Jag Hade En Gång En Båt
Jag Hade En Gång En Båt
Performer(s): Cornelis Wreeswijk
Jag hade en gång en båt
med segel och ruff och köl
men det var för länge sen
så länge sen
Svara mig du, var är den nu?
Jag bara undrar, var är den nu?
Jag hade en gång en dröm
jag trodde att den var sann
Så väcktes jag ur min sömn
och drömmen försvann
Svara mig du, var är den nu?
Jag bara undrar, var är den nu?
Det fanns en gång en soldat
han kysste sin mor farväl
Han sa till sin flicka: Du jag kommer igen
Svara mig du, var är han nu?
Jag bara undrar, var är han nu?
Det fanns en gång en stad
i parken där lekte barn
Så släppte man ner en bomb
och staden försvann
Svara mig du, var är den nu?
Jag bara undrar, var är den nu?
Jag hade en gång en båt
Jag drömde en dröm en gång
men det var för länge sen
så länge sen
Svara mig du, var är dom nu?
Jag bara undrar, var är dom nu?

These Strange Times
These Strange Times
Composer(s): Mick Fleetwood - Ray Kennedy
Performer(s): Fleetwood Mac
These strange times I think of a friend
They said was a man of the world
When all the time he was in a fight
Between the dark and the light
Yes I too, my friend, find the devil
Trying to make me do things I don't want to do
Now I find myself crying out
God is nowhere, God is nowhere
These strange times I look in my heart
And see the dark not the light
And how I'm sad and wished I was in love
And look to the sky and cry out
God is nowhere, God is nowhere
And this is hell
Being caught between the dark and the light
Daddy, daddy, hold on
God is now here, God is now here
These strange times I too have dreams
Things that make me wonder
If to walk a thin line is like dying alone
And I'm trying to find my way home
To where God is now here and the dark is now light
Yes I'm crying out, God is now here
God is now here and that was hell
Being caught between the dark and the light
Between the dark and the light
These strange times I look in my heart
And how I'm sad and wished I was in love
And I look to the sky and cry out
God is now here, God is now here
God is now here, God is now here
My friend I do wish that I was in love
I wished I was in love
I love you, I love you

Et finalement, après quelques années
Les hommes ont remplacé tes poupées
Et les glaïeuls posés dans ta chambre
Remplacent aujourd'hui les fleurs des champs
Et c'est le temps qui court, court
Qui nous rend sérieux
La vie nous a rendu plus orgueilleux
Parce que le temps qui court, court
Change les plaisirs
Et que le manque d'amour nous fait vieillir
À l'heure qu'il est, mes voitures de plastique
Sont devenues vraies depuis longtemps
Et finalement, les affaires et l'argent
Ont remplacé mes jouets d'avant
Et c'est le temps qui court, court
Qui nous rend sérieux
La vie nous a rendu plus orgueilleux
Parce que le temps qui court, court
Change les plaisirs
Et que le manque d'amour nous fait vieillir
Parce que le temps qui court, court, oh court
Change les plaisirs
Et que le manque d'amour nous fait vieillir
Et toujours le temps qui court, qui court, oh le temps
Change les plaisirs
Et que le manque d'amour nous a fait vieillir
Et que le manque d'amour nous a fait vieillir

Jag Blir Galen När Jag Tänker På Dej
Jag Blir Galen När Jag Tänker På Dej
English Title: Goin' Out Of My Head
Composer(s): Stig Anderson
Performer(s): Anni-Frid Lyngstad
Jag blir galen när jag tänker på dej
Och det är som något fattades mej
Mer, ju mer jag dig ser
Så känns det, så bränns det
Kan vakna och sakna
Det lugn som din närhet alltid ger
Jag blir galen när jag tänker på dej
Du har blivit som ett gift inom mej
varje da', vill jag ha
En dos av din ömhet
Din värme, din närhet
För att jag ska känna allt är bra
Och jag tänker på dej
Natt och dag
Längtar till dej
Natt och dag
ia, du har gått i mitt blod
Det som va' en bäck blev en flod
Du har öppnat en sluss
upptänt en våg
Slagit an en ton, väckt en passion
som slumrande låg
Jag blir...
och jag...
Jag blir galen...

These Foolish Things (Remind Me Of You)
These Foolish Things (Remind Me Of You)
Composer(s): Holt Marvell - Jack Strachey - Harry Link
First recording by: Leslie Hutchinson - 1936
Covered by multiple other artists
Oh, will you never let me be
Oh, will you never set me free
The ties that bound us are still around us
There's no escape that I can see
And still those little things remain
That bring me happiness or pain...
A cigarette that bears a lipsticks traces
An airline ticket to romantic places
And still my heart has wings
These foolish things remind me of you
A tinkling piano in the next apartment
Those stumbling words that told you what my heart meant
A fairground's painted swings
These foolish things remind me of you
You came, you saw
You conquered me
When you did that to me
I somehow knew that this had to be
The winds of March that make my heart a dancer
A telephone that rings but who's to answer
Oh, how the ghost of you clings
These foolish things remind me of you
Gardenia perfume lingering on a pillow
Wild strawberries only seven francs a kilo
And still my heart has wings
These foolish things remind me of you
I know that this
Was bound to be
These things have haunted me
For you've entirely enchanted me
The sigh of midnight trains in empty stations
Silk stockings thrown aside and sin-vitations
Oh, how the ghost of you clings
These foolish things remind me of you
The smile of Garbo and the scent of roses
The waiters whistling as the last bar closes
The song that Crosby sings
These foolish things remind me of you
How strange, how sweet
To find you still
These things are dear to me
That seem to bring you so near to me
The scent of smoking leaves, the wail of steamers
Two lovers on the street who walk like dreamers
Oh, how the ghost of you clings
These foolish things remind me of you
Just you

Could It Be I'm Falling In Love?
Composer(s): Marvin Steals; Mervin Steals
First release by: The Spinners - 1972
Covered by multiple other artists
Since I've met you, I've begun to feel so strange
Every time I speak your name, that's funny
You say that you are so helpless too
That you don't know what to do-ooh
Each night I pray there will never come a day
When you up and take your love away
Say you feel the same way too, and I wonder what
It is I feel for you-ooh
Could it be I'm falling in love, with you baby
Could it be I'm falling in love, woo-hoo
Could it be I'm falling in love, with you, with you, with you-oo
I don't need all those things, that used to bring me joy
You made me such a happy boy
And honey, you'll always be the only one for me
Meeting you was my destiny-ee
You can be sure I will never let you down
When you need me I'll be around
And darling you'll always be, the only one for me
Heaven made you 'specially-ee
Could it be I'm falling in love, with you baby
Could it be I'm falling in love, woo-hoo
Could it be I'm falling in love, with you, with you, with you-oo
And darling you'll always be, the only one for me
Heaven made you 'specially-ee
Could it be I'm falling in love, with you baby
Could it be I'm falling in love, I want to know now baby
Could it be I'm falling in love, with you, with you, with you-oo
Could it be I'm falling in love
Could it be I'm falling in love
Could it be I'm falling in love
Could it be I'm falling in love
Could it be I'm falling in love
Could it be I'm falling in love
Could it be I'm falling in love

Jaded Lover
Composer(s): Chuck Pyle
Performer(s): Jerry Jeff Walker
Well, it won't be but a week or two
You'll be out lovin' someone new
It must have happened a hundred times before
And I can see you been spreadin' yourself thin too
It's a lonely stage we been goin' through
Don't get up, I can find my own way to the door
Chorus:
Well, I can see you are an angel
whose wings just won't unfold
Tune up your harp; polish your old halo
Well the only kind of man that you ever wanted
is one that you knew you'd never hold very long
You're sittin' there cryin' like I'm the first one to go

Could I Leave You?
Could I Leave You?
Composer(s): Stephen Sondheim
Leave you? Leave you?
How could I leave you?
How could I go it alone?
Could I wave the years away
With a quick goodbye?
How do you wipe tears away
When your eyes are dry?
Sweetheart, lover
Could I recover
Give up the joys I have known?
Not to fetch your pills again
Every day at five
Not to give those dinners for ten
Elderly men
From the U.N.
How could I survive?
Could I leave you
And your shelves of the World's Best Books
And the evenings of martyred looks
Cryptic sighs
Sullen glares from those injured eyes?
Leave the quips with a sting, jokes with a sneer
Passionless lovemaking once a year?
Leave the lies ill-concealed
And the wounds never healed
And the games not worth winning
And-wait, I'm just beginning!
What, leave you, leave you
How could I leave you?
What would I do on my own?
Putting thoughts of you aside
In the south of France
Would I think of suicide?
Darling, shall we dance?
Could I live through the pain
On a terrace in Spain?
Would it pass? It would pass
Could I bury my rage
With a boy half your age
In the grass?
Bet your ass
But I've done that already--or didn't you know, love?
Tell me, how could I leave when I left long ago, love?
Could I leave you?
No, the point is, could you leave me?
Well, I guess you could leave me the house
Leave me the flat
Leave me the Braques and Chagalls and all that
You could leave me the stocks for sentiment's sake
And ninety percent of the money you make
And the rugs
And the cooks
Darling, you keep the drugs
Angel, you keep the books
Honey, I'll take the grand
Sugar you keep the spinet
And all of our friends and
Just wait a goddam minute!
Oh, leave you? Leave you?
How could I leave you?
Sweetheart, I have to confess
Could I leave you?
Yes
Will I leave you?
Will I leave you?
Guess!

You've heard all about your raggy melodies

Ev'ryone seemed to have it on their brain
When Yaka Hicky Hoola Do was all the craze
Why that's the one that had 'em dazed
The object now is for something new
Something that will appeal to you
And here's a little melody that you will find
Will linger, linger there on your mind
It goes Ja Da, Ja Da, Ja Da Ja Da, Jing Jing Jing
Ja Da, Ja Da, Ja Da Ja Da, Jing Jing Jing
That's a funny little bit of melody
It's so soothing and appealing to me
It goes Ja Da, Ja Da, Ja Da Ja Da, Jing Jing Jing!

These Dreams
These Dreams
Composer(s): Jim Croce
Performer(s): Jim Croce
Once we were lovers
But somehow things have changed
Now we're just lonely people
Tryin' to forget each other's names
Now we're just lonely people
Tryin' to forget each other's names
What came between us?
Maybe we were just too young to know
But now and then
I feel the same,
And sometimes at night I think
I hear you calling my name
Mmm-hmm-mmm these dreams
They keep me going these days
Once we were lovers
But that was long ago
We lived together then
And now we do not even say hello
We lived together then
And now we do not even say hello
What came between us?
Maybe we were just too young to know
But now and then
I feel the same
And sometimes at night I think
I hear you calling my name
Mmm-hmm-mmm these dreams
They keep me going these days

Over and over I've dreamed of this night
Now you're here by my side
You are next to me
I want to hold you and touch you and taste you
And make you want no one but me
I wish that this kiss could never end

Jacques, A Penniless French Mouse
Jacques, A Penniless French Mouse
Performer(s): Captain Beaky
A penniless French mouse, called Jacques
In beret, boots and belted Mac...
Strolled idly down an empty drain
Protected against the wind and the rain
When from a grating in the street
A cigarette fell at his feet
And in surprise he cried, "Mon Dieu!
"It is my favourite brand, Disque Bleu"
"Ma foi - these are tres bon" he said
Inhaling deep, the end glowed red
A smell he thought was just a drain
Was gas escaping from the main
Le grande explosion! Au revoir Jacques
In beret, boots and belted mac...
And now he has gone to the great mousehole in the sky
Where mountains of bleu cheese stretch away
As far as the eye can see...
"Excuse moi?"
"Oui?"
"Which way to the Rocquefort, s'il vous plait?"

These Days (Dan Fogelberg)
These Days
Composer(s): Dan Fogelberg
Performer(s): Dan Fogelberg
I used to think of myself as a soldier
Holding his own against impossible odds
Badly outnumbered and caught in a crossfire of devils and gods
All I ever wanted to be was free
All I ever looked for was what was within my eyes to see
Oh, but these days are just like you and me
Oh, but these days are just like you and me
You used to be something I could believe in
How could you let me forsake myself so
You used to think of your life as a riddle with no answer known
All you ever wanted to be was free
All you ever looked for was what was within your sights to see
Oh, but these days are just like you and me
Oh, but these days are just like you and me
We used to live like there was no tomorrow
Tasting our trials a day at a time
Crying for justice and laughing at sorrow
Such innocent crimes
All we ever wanted to be was free
All we ever looked for was what was within our sights to see
Oh, but these days are just like you and me
Oh, but these days are just like you and me
Just like you and me
You know they're just like you and me

Could I Have This Dance?
Composer(s): Wayland Holyfield; Bob House
Performer(s): Anne Murray
and multiple other artists
I'll always remember the song they were playing
The first time we danced and I knew
As we swayed to the music and held to each other
I fell in love with you
Could I have this dance for the rest of my life?
Would you be my partner, then every night?
When we're together it feels so right
Could I have this dance for the rest of my life?
I'll always remember that magic moment
When I held you close to me
As we moved together, I knew, forever
You're all I'll ever need
Could I have this dance for the rest of my life?
Would you be my partner every night?
When we're together it feels so right
Could I have this dance for the rest of my life?
Could I have this dance for the rest of my life?
Would you be my partner every night?
When we're together it feels so right
Could I have this dance for the rest of my life?

Jacques
Composer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute
Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute
Permíteme el atrevimiento de llamarte así
Al escribir esta balada urgente para ti
para ti
Jacques
Querrás saber por qué se me ha ocurrido
al cabo de los años transcurridos
recordar a aquel quijote belga
que escapó a Tahití
Jacques
Podría responderte simplemente porque sí
O que en la radio acabo de escuchar "Le Plat Pays"
Jacques, lo que sucede es que me han desgarrado el corazón
Y necesito hablarte como "Jef" necesitó
Tu canción...
Ella ya no está...
Pero eso qué más da
Pero eso qué más da
Lo malo es esta noche
de eterna soledad
Jacques, ne me quittes pas
Jacques
ya ves que no se trata de escribirle al Sr. Juez
y que mi drama es para que respondas: "qué idiotez
qué idiotez"
Jacques
si acudo a ti es porque busco a un amigo
para unas copas Y un "estoy contigo
y a esa falsa rubia consentida
que la folle un pez!..."
Jacques
Vayamos con Jaurés, Zangra y Fernand a la kermes
Y luego al "Amsterdam" a que nos hagan un francés
Jacques
pero han huido de este octubre frío de París...
tal vez estén volando entre las nubes junto a ti
aux marquises
Ella ya no está...
Pero eso qué más da
Pero eso qué más da...
Lo malo es esta noche
de eterna soledad...
Jacques, ne me quittes pas

Ecco, d'un tratto tu non ridi e ti mancan le parole
Tu ricominci a pensare, io lo so, al nostro amore
Noi stiamo bene insieme,che cosa importa se
se tu già sei, (sei già di un altro)
sei già di un altro (sei già di un altro)
per la vita legata a lui (sei già di un altro)
sei già di un altro (sei già di un altro)
Uuh... uuh...
Anche se asciughi quelle lacrime si vede che tu hai pianto, e allor
anche se cerchi di sorridere si vede che sei triste ancor
Noi ci vogliamo bene, che cosa importa se
se tu già sei, (sei già di un altro)
sei già di un altro (sei già di un altro)
l'altro uomo con cui già sei (sei già di un altro)

Could I?
Could I?
Composer(s): Jerry Fuller; Gary Puckett
Performer(s): Gary Puckett & The Union Gap
Your only try at love was through before it began
So now you're frightened of the thought of losing again
Would I be true to you; girl, if there's any doubt
Just ask me anything your mind is wondering about
Could I chase the bitter taste
Left in your heart by someone who said goodbye
Could I love?
Give me love
I'm down on my knees, beggin' you please
Could I?
If I could get to you & prove the things that I say
You wouldn't compare me to the pain you knew yesterday
You've built a wall of ice I'm sure my lovin' will melt
Please let me hold you, love, instead of asking yourself
Could I chase the bitter taste
Left in your heart by someone who said goodbye
Could I love?
Give me love
I'm down on my knees, beggin' you please
Could I? ...
