(Just One Way) To Say I Love You
(Just One Way) To Say I Love You
From the Broadway musical "Miss Liberty"
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra;
and various other artists
Why search for flowery phrases
Quoting what poets have said
Why talk in circles around it
Why not be simple instead
Let's hit the nail on the head
I love you, I love you, there's no other way
Just one way to say I love you
I love you, I love you, and try as I may
That's all I can say, I love you
Much more could be said if I thought with my head
But I only can think with my heart
I love you, I love you, and yearn for the day
The day when you'll say "I love you"
I could be oh, so indiff'rent
With very little success
I could continue pretending
But I'm afraid you would guess
So why not simply say, "Yes"
I love you, I love you, there's no other way
Just one way to say I love you
I love you, I love you, and try as I may
That's all I can say, I love you
Much more could be said if I thought with my head
But I only can think with my heart
I love you, I love you, and this is the day
The day when we'll say "I love you"

Together We're Strong
Together We're Strong
Composer(s): Ralph Siegel - Richard Palmer
Performer(s): Mireille Mathieu & Patrick Duffy
Patrick Duffy:
A great man once said
"Winter never fails to turn into Spring"
I know we are so different, you and I
When we are together, even a cold December
Feels like the middle of may
Mirelle Mathieu:
You are the night, I am the day
You are the star that shows the way
You are the instrument I play
You are the words I long to say
Patrick Duffy:
You are the land, I am the sea
You are in counterpoint to me
And we agree to disagree
Both: No need to lie
MM: I only know when we're apart
PD: Together we're strong
MM: I only live with half a heart
PD: Together we're strong
MM: I need your hand to play my card
PD: Together we're strong
Both: We can't go wrong
Both: Together we're strong
MM: And now we know just what to do
PD: Together we're strong
MM: And how we get all meaning through
PD: Together we're strong
MM: We're only one when we are two
PD: Together we're strong
Both: Together we're strong
MM: Together we're strong
MM: Together we're strong
Together we're strong
We can't go wrong
And every time your eyes meet mine
I feel the world fall into line
I'm passing on that good luck sign
Both: Let's keep hanging on
And now we know just what to do
And how we get all meaning through
We're only one when we are two
Together we're strong
MM: And I will always try to understand you
PD: I'll be there if you should need me
MM: Plan you in my life
PD: There's so much we can share with each other
MM: But if we say goodbye, it's not forever
PD: I can't lose you now I've found you
MM: I need you in my life
PD: 'Cause now you're in my life
PD: And together we're strong
There are so many ways of looking at the world
Everyone has a different dream
Yours may not be the same as mine
But when we're together
We can make them all come true
MM: You are the night, I am the day
PD: Together we're strong
MM: You are the star that shows the way
PD: Together we're strong
MM: You are the instrument I play
PD: Together we're strong
MM: You are the words I long to say
PD: Together we're strong
MM: Together we're strong
PD: You are the land I am the sea
MM: Together we're strong
PD: You are in counterpoint to me
MM: Together we're strong
PD: And we agree to disagree
Both: No need to lie
MM: You are the night, I am the day
PD: Together we're strong
MM: You are the star that shows the way
PD: Together we're strong
MM: You are the music to my song
PD: Together we're strong
Both: Together we're strong
PD: Together we're strong
Both: Together we're strong
PD: Together we're strong

I Get Along Without You Very Well
I Get Along Without You Very Well
French Title: Qu'est Ce Que Tu Crois - 2003
Composer(s): Hoagy Carmichael; Jane Brown Thompson
First performance by: Jane Russell and Hoagy Carmichael - 1952
Covered by multiple other artists
I get along without you very well
Of course I do
Except when soft rains fall
And drip from leaves then I recall
The thrill of being sheltered in your arms
Of course I do
But I've forgotten you just like I should
Of course I have
Except to hear your name
Or someone's laughter just the same
But I've forgotten you just like I should
What, again
What a fool am I
To think my breaking heart could kick the mood
What's in store
Should I phone once more
No, it's best that I stick to my tune
I get along without you very well
Of course I do
Except perhaps in Spring
But I should never think of Spring
For that would surely break my heart in two
What, again
What a fool am I
To think my breaking heart could kick the mood
What's in store
Should I phone once more
No, it's best that I stick to my tune

J'M'En Fous Pas Mal
J'M'En Fous Pas Mal
Composer(s): Michel Emer
Performer(s): Edith Piaf; Christine Albert;
Raquel Bitton; French Acoustic
Je suis née, Passage de la Bonne Graine
J'en ai pris d' la graine, et pour longtemps
J' travaille comme un chien toute la semaine
J' vous jure que l' patron, il est content
Mes amies se sont mises en colère
"C'est pas bien malin, c' que tu fais là...
Faut c' qu'y faut, mais toi, tu exagères
Tu verras qu'un jour, tu le regretteras..."
J' m'en fous pas mal
Y peut m'arriver n'importe quoi
J' m'en fous pas mal
J'ai mon dimanche qui est à moi
C'est p't'êt' banal
Mais ce que les gens pensent de vous
Ça m'est égal!
J' m'en fous!
Il y a les bords de la Seine
Il y a l'avenue de l'Opéra
Il y a le Bois de Vincennes
Quel beau dimanche on a là
Et puis, y a l' bal
Qui vous flanque des frissons partout
' y a des étoiles
Qui sont plus belles que les bijoux
' y a les beaux mâles
Qui vous embrassent dans le cou
L' reste, après tout
J' m'en fous!
Ce fut par un de ces beaux dimanches
Que, tous deux, l'on se mit à danser
De grands yeux noirs, de longues mains blanches
Alors, j' me suis laissée embrasser
Mes amies se sont mises en colère
"C' type-lâ, c'est connu, il a pas d' cœur
C'est un va-nu-pieds, un traîne-misère
Y t'en fra voir de toutes les couleurs..."
J' m'en fous pas mal
Il peut m'arriver n'importe quoi
J' m'en fous pas mal
J'ai mon amant qui est à moi
C'est p't'êt' banal
Mais ce que les gens pensent de vous
Ça m'est égal!
J' m'en fous!
Il y a ses bras qui m'enlacent
Il y a son corps doux et chaud
Il y a sa bouche qui m'embrasse
Ha, mon amant, c' qu'il est beau!
Et puis ' y a l' bal
Quand je suis dans ses bras, c'est fou
J' me trouverais mal
Quand il m' dit: "Viens! Rentrons chez nous!"
Ah l'animal!
Avec lui, j'irais n'importe où
L' reste après tout
J' m'en fous!
J'ai vécu des heures si jolies
Quand il me tenait entre ses bras
J' n'aurais jamais cru que, dans la vie
On puisse être heureuse à ce point-là
Mais un jour où tout n'était que rires
Un jour de printemps rempli de joie
Il s'en est allé sans rien me dire
Sans même m'embrasser une dernière fois...
J' m'en fous pas mal
' y peut m'arriver n'importe quoi
J' m'en fous pas mal
J'ai mon passé qui est à moi
C'est p't'êt' banal
Mais ce que les gens pensent de vous
Ça m'est égal
J' m'en fous!
Les souvenirs qui m'enlacent
Chantent au fond de mon cœur
Et tous les coins où je passe
Me rappellent mon bonheur
Et puis ' y a l' bal
Je danse, et je ferme les yeux
Je crois que c'est encore nous deux
Parfois, j'ai mal
J'ai mon cœur qui frappe à grands coups
Ça m'est égal
J' m'en fous!...

Qu'Est-Ce Que Tu Crois
Qu'Est-Ce Que Tu Crois
Adapted from: I Get Along Without You Very Well - 1952
Composer(s): Hoagy Carmichael; Jane Brown Thompson; Carla Bruni; David McNeil
Performer(s): Julien Clerc & Carla Bruni - 2003
Tant bien que mal tout va très bien sans toi
Qu'est ce que tu crois
Sauf quelques fois la nuit
Sauf quelques fois encore j'oublie
Que je te cherche doucement malgré moi
Qu'est ce que tu crois
Et tant bien que mal tout va très bien sans toi
Il ne me reste rien, plus rien de toi
Qu'est ce que tu crois
Sauf ton absence partout
Dans l'air où tout reste sur ma peau
Et le silence qui se souvient de nous
Rien ne vient
Rien qui ne soit rien
Et c'est tout ce rien de toi qui me tient chaud
Rien ne passe
Rien ne prend ta place
Et que faire de tout ce rien entre mes bras
Tant bien que mal tout va très bien sans toi
Qu'est ce que tu crois
Sauf quelques fois l'été
Quand le soir tombe tu sais l'été
Alors plus rien ne se laisse oublier

J'Me Sens Mieux Quand J'Me Sens Mal
J'Me Sens Mieux Quand J'Me Sens Mal
Composer(s): Claude Moine; Pierre Papadiamandis
Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell
Elle dit qu'elle aime la musique
Mais elle achète m'importe quel disque
Elle se fie aux pochettes
Elle prétend adorer lire
Mais elle juge un roman, un livre
Au revers d'sa jaquette
C'est p't-être par peur
Mais sa méthode
C'est d'faire le vide autour de soi
Elle pense qu'on étudie mieux les hommes comme ça
Vu sous cet angle, j'suis mal
Pas b'soin d' dessin, j'suis mal
J'peux mentir, dire qu' j'habite tout seul un' suite royale
Oh! non...
Ou bien d' l'humour banal
J'garde pas les sacs des dames au bal
J'me sens mieux quand j'me sens mal
J'me sens mieux quand j'me sens mal
C'est p't-être par peur
J'ai pas d' méthode
Je fais le vide autour de moi
J'me fâche avec personne c'est p't-être mieux comme ça
Evidemment, j'suis mal
Je l'prends bien mais j'suis mal
Je m'dis qu' les plus belles filles sont d'un ennui royal
Oh! non...
Et puis ça m'est égal
D'avoir perdu l'écrit, l'oral
J'me sens mieux quand j'me sens mal
J'me sens mieux quand j'me sens mal
Elle n'a pas les mêmes valeurs
Elle aime le noir pour sa couleur
Pour elle, Rock égal cuir
Elle s'intéresse aux leaders
J'ai beau chanter avec mon cœur
J'lutte pas avec le King
C'est p't-être par peur
Que j'chante avec les chœurs
Y a l'star système entre elle et moi
J' fais d' mon mieux, j'harmonise bien mes wap-dou-wa
Ça n'la touche pas, j'suis mal
J'ai pas l'charisme qui vous place sur piédestal
Oh! non...
Je sais pourquoi j'suis mal
Quand on aime le Blues c'est normal
J'me sens mieux quand j'me sens mal
J'me sens mieux quand j'me sens mal

You really must agree together we are beautiful
We are beautiful

I Get A Little Sentimental Over You
I Get A Little Sentimental Over You
Composer(s): Tony Macaulay; Roger Stephens
Performer(s): The New Seekers
Honey, though I think about you day and night
I gotta say I'm still alright
But when I'm here without you by the soft fire glow
I hear the golden oldies on the radio
Well I can't hide the moment when
The mood inside me changes
Then I get a little sentimental when they play
That old love song we sang back then
I hold back the tears until the music's through
Then I get a little sentimental over you
Like a fool I find those old love letters
And I read every line (I read every line)
Oh I know you would laugh
But I was born the sentimental kiind
Honey, there's a hundred crazy things I do
To keep myself from missing you
But when I sit alone and watch the late night show
And someone in the movie says I love you so
Well I can't hide the feeling when
The mood inside me changes
Then I get a little sentimental when they say
The same old words we said back then
So I hold back the tears until the movie's through
Then I get a little sentimental over you
La-la-la-la-la-la, La-la-la-la-la-la
I got a funny feelin' that there'll come a day
That you will change your mind and come home to say
Then you and I will close the door
And by the fireside like before
We'll get a little sentimental when they play
The same old songs we sang back then
Oh when you hold me tight and say you want me too
I'll get a little sentimental over you
Oh-oh-oh-oh, I'll get a little sentimental over you
Oh-oh-oh-oh, I'll get a little ...

J'M'Appelle Amnésie
Composer(s): Elisabeth Pons;
Didier Barbelivien; Gérard Layani
Performer(s): Dalida
Pourquoi me reparler de l'Italie
Ou d'avant dans une rue d'Alexandrie
Pourquoi m'appelez-vous toujours Dali
Vous devez-vous tromper cher ami
Non je ne suis pas italienne
Ni chanteuse, ni comédienne
Je vous assure je comprend rien à vos paroles
N'essayez pas de dire que je suis folle
Rappelez-vous que j'm'appelle amnésie
Amnésie est mon lieu de naissance
J'y suis née le temps d'un rêve ou d'une danse
Et c'est pour ça que je n'ai pas vieillie
Rappelez-vous que j'm'appelle Amnésie
Amnésie comme un amour d'enfance
Non je n'ai rien à regretter je pense
Ça vous fait rire mais je n'ai pas de souvenirs
Entre un aéroport et un hôtel
Vous voulez toujours savoir qui je suis
J'adore ma mémoire elle m'est infidèle
J'ai tellement voyagé dans ma vie
Non je n'connais pas Marcello, ni Luigi, ni Roberto
Je vous en prie je ne suis jamais allée à Rome
Je n'connais pas le visage de cet homme
Rappelez-vous que j'm'appelle amnésie
Amnésie est mon lieu de naissance
J'y suis née le temps d'un rêve ou d'une danse
Et c'est pour ça que je n'ai pas vieillie
Rappelez-vous que j'm'appelle amnésie
Amnésie comme un amour d'enfance
Non je n'ai rien à regretter je pense
Ça vous fait rire mais je n'ai pas de souvenirs
"Vous parlez de ma
jeunesse, de la maison ou je suis née
vous dites des noms, des adresses, vous devez vous tromper,
vous racontez des chagrins d'amour que je n'ai jamais eu
et vous m'inventez des prénoms inconnus
Dalida!
Hum! Dalida??? Ah non vraiment j'connais pas!"
Rappelez-vous que j'm'appelle amnésie
Amnésie est mon lieu de naissance
J'y suis née le temps d'un rêve ou d'une danse
Et c'est pour ça que je n'ai pas vieillie
Rappelez-vous que j'm'appelle amnésie
Amnésie comme un amour d'enfance
Non je n'ai rien à regretter je pense
Ça vous fait rire mais je n'ai pas de souvenirs
Rappelez-vous que j'm'appelle...
La, la, la...
Ça vous fait rire...
La, la la...
Rappelez-vous que j'm'appelle amnésie

Together Let's Find Love
Together Let's Find Love
Composer(s): James W. Alexander - Willie Hutch
Performer(s): The 5th Dimension
I don't know much about this thing called love
But I'm willing to try
I don't know much about it either, baby
But if you're willing, then so am I
Together, we will float away in a dream
On our own private cloud
If you know what I mean
Oh...
Together, oh, baby, let's find love
Baby, baby, you and me
Together, oh, baby, let's find love
Together, baby, you and me, that's the way it's got to be
I don't know much about the feeling shared
When two lovers kiss
Oh, and I don't know much about it either, baby
But I'm willing to find out what I missed
Together, we'll persue love to the extreme
Let's not miss a thing, girl, if you know what I mean
Oh...
Together, oh, baby, let's find love
Baby, baby, you and me
Together, oh, baby, let's find love
Together, baby, you and me, that's the way it's got to be
Oh, oh, together, oh, oh, baby let's find love
Baby, baby, you and me
Together, oh, oh, baby, let's find love
Together, baby, you and me, that's the way it's got to be
Oh, oh, together, oh, baby, let's find love
Baby, baby, you and me
Together, oh, oh, baby, let's find love
Together, baby, you and me, that's the way it's got to be

I Get A Kick Out Of You
I Get A Kick Out Of You
Composer(s): Cole Porter
First performance by: William Gaxton & Ethel Merman - 1934
Covered by multiple other artists
My story is much too sad to be told
But practically ev'rything leaves me totally cold
The only exception I know is the case
When I'm out on a quiet spree
Fighting vainly the old ennui
And I suddenly turn and see
Your fabulous face....
I get no kick from champagne
Mere alcohol doesn't thrill me at all
So tell me why should it be true
That I get a kick out of you
Some get a kick from cocaine
I'm sure that if I took even one sniff
That would bore me terrific'ly too
Yet I get a kick out of you
I get a kick ev'ry time I see
You're standing there before me
I get a kick though it's clear to see
You obviously do not adore me
I get no kick in a plane
Flying too high with some gal/guy in the sky
Is my idea of nothing to do
But I get a kick out of you

J'La Croise Tous Les Matins
J'La Croise Tous Les Matins
Composer(s): Jean-Jacques Goldman
Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday
J'la croise tous les matins, cinq heures quarante
Elle va prendre son train et moi j'rentre
Elle commence sa journée toujours à l'heure
Moi, la lumière me fait peur
Elle a cette assurance inaccessible
De ceux qu'ont d'la chance de naissance
Elle est belle comme les filles du jour
Comme celles qui n'ont rien à cacher
Et moi j'attends toujours, avant de rentrer
Juste pour la regarder
A la voir on devine des enfants coiffés
Un homme, l'odeur du café
La vie qu'on imagine, avant de plonger
Celle que j'n'aurai jamais
Et moi je me sens misérable
Sali des fumées de mes nuits
Moi je suis né coupable
Coupable d'envies, son monde est interdit
Je maudis les fins de semaine
Quand les autres me l'ont volée
Jusqu'au lundi matin, cinq heures quarante
Elle va prendre son train... et moi j'rentre

Performer(s): La Grande Sophie - 2006
Tu sais qu'il y a des poissons qui meurt dans leur bocal
Sans module même sans raison ni même une carte postal
En égoïste tu regardes le monde
En égoïste tu creuses sous ta tombe
Tu t'ai pas demandé si on était heureux
Tu m'as pas regardé une seul fois dans les yeux
Tu sais qu'il y a du monde qui vis autour de toi
Mais tu ne vois personne car tu ne vois que toi
Les lignes à hautes tentions les primeurs familiales
Les autres l'appel affraction pour le jeu triomphale
En égoïste tu porte bien le moi
En égoïste tu ne nous aura pas
Tu t'ai pas demandé si on était heureux
Tu m'as pas regardé une seul fois dans les yeux
Tu sais qu'il y a du monde qui vis autour de toi
Mais tu ne vois personne car tu ne vois que toi
Egoïste tien voilà les nouvelles

I Gave My Wedding Dress Away
I Gave My Wedding Dress Away
Composer(s): Hy Heath; Fred Rose
Performer(s): Kitty Wells; Eileen Reid & The Cadets
Tomorrow was to be my wedding day
But I gave my wedding dress away
Another will be holding my bouquet
So I gave my wedding dress away
My baby sister wanted him
And so she took my place
It's worth a broken heart
To see the smile upon her face
I've cared for her since Mother went away
So I gave my wedding dress away
"Everything I ever wanted, she always wanted too
And maybe giving in to her was not the thing to do
I always let her have her way, perhaps I wasn't strong
But I was all she had to turn to when anything went wrong
She's all I have to live for, she's all the joy I've ever had
And though she's hurt me many times, she really isn't bad
I saw the lovelight in her eyes, the day she met my Jim
And then I knew that he belonged to her and she belonged to him"
If I could win him back again
Our love would be devine
But I could never break her heart
The way that she broke mine
I'll worship him until my dying day
But I gave my wedding dress away

Jive After Five
Jive After Five
Composer(s): Carl Perkins
Performer(s): Carl Perkins
I work all day as a soda jerk
On my feet all the time and oh man, how they hurt
Don't make much, but I sure get the news
I don't have much time for gettin' the blues
My friends drop in for sodas and pop
There'll all talking, friends, about a new record hop
All day long I'm a-fillin' orders
Takin' in nickels, dimes and quarters
Cherry sodas and a chocolate shake
Strawberry sundaes and a lemon phosphate
Time to clean the fountain, 'cause it's almost five
You know me dad, after five I jive
I wanna jive, ah-ah-ah, I wanna jive
Ooh-ooh-ooh, I wanna jive, yes, after five
Oh-oh-oh, I wanna jive, man alive, after five
Well, I mop the floor and I wipe the counter
I just work here dad, I'm not the founder
I keep a-workin' and a-watchin' the clock
A-peepin' out the window for my baby to stop
We'll head out of town to a little night dive
Because you know me dad, after five I jive
All day long I'm a-fillin' orders
Takin' in nickels, dimes and quarters
Cherry cokes and tall root beer
A coat of vanilla with a chocolate smear
Time to clean the fountain, 'cause it's almost five
You know me dad, after five I jive
I wanna jive, I wanna jive
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, and then we jive
Yeah, I wanna jive, yes, man alive
Come on now cat, let's jive
Everybody rock, I wanna jive
Ah-ah-ah, I wanna jive
Ooh-ooh-ooh, I wanna jive
Yes, I wanna jive
Man alive, I wanna jive
Jive, jive after five
