Broken Hearted Melody
Broken Hearted Melody
French Title: Mélodie Pour Un Amour
Composer(s): Hal David; Sherman Edwards; Donald Meyer
Performer(s): Sarah Vaughan
and various other artists
Br-oooo-ken hearted me-eee-lo-dy
Ooooonce you were our song of love
Nooooow you just keep taunting me
Wiiiiith the memory of (ba-da-da))
His tender love
Oh
Broken hearted melody
Must you keep reminding me
Of the lips I long to kiss
And the love I miss since he went away
Night and day they play
But, broken hearted melody
That he used to sing to me
When our love was young and bright
As he held me tight
Suddenly I found: I was out of bound
Brooooken hearted melody
Ooooonce you were my song of love
Nooooow you just keep taunting me
Wiiiiiith the memory of (ba-da-da)
His tender love
Oh
Broken hearted melody
Won't you bring him back to me
Sing to him until he hears
For when he returns no more will he be
A broken hearted melody
Oooooooo, oo-oo, oo-oo, oo-oo, ooooooooo
Oooooooo, oo-oo, oo-oo, oo-oo, ooooooooo. . .

Let's Sit This One Out (Eve Becke & Harry Bentley)
Let’s Sit This One Out
Composer(s): Jimmy McHugh - Dorothy Fields
Performer(s): Eve Becke & Harry Bentley; Charlie Kunz
Eve:
I rather like this tune, don’t you Harry
Harry:
I don’t mind it a lot
I say, Eve, your dancing is improving lately
Eve:
Oh, do you really think so, Harry
Harry:
Well, you’re dancing on your own feet now
Eve:
Thank you!
What a lot of people here tonight
Harry:
Yes, there are, rather; I was just going to say
Eve:
I hate crowds, don’t you?
Harry:
Mmm, I don’t like them a lot
Eve:
Too many people in them, Hmm?
Harry:
Yes, quite (heh!)
Do you think we ought to sit out?
Eve:
I think I’d like to
There’re two chairs over there
They look frightfully lonely
Harry:
Shall we join them?
Eve:
OK, I’d love to
Harry:
Great
Harry:
That’s better
Ooh
Rather hard, would you like a cushion?
Eve:
No thank you, Harry
Harry:
Or perhaps put my arm in the way
Eve:
I rather like it
Harry:
D’you know, I do too
Hmm, just a little bit closer
That’s better
Harry:
Let’s sit this one out, my sweet
Get a breath of air, and rest your feet
My old car has a big back seat
So let’s sit this one out
Eve:
I’m so happy now we’ve met
Can’t we have a cosy cigarette
Our last dance got me all upset
So let’s sit this one out
Harry:
I know in the moonlight
Our love cannot miss
Give me a kiss
One little kiss
Eve:
I’m in such a whirl, my dear
Can’t we find a place with no one near
Harry:
Where you’ll say what I long to hear
Both:
So let’s sit this one out

Il Faut Croire Aux Étoiles
Il Faut Croire Aux Étoiles
((Adapted from: Let's Go To San Francisco (by The Flower Pot Men) - 1967))
((Italian Version: Inno (by I Dik Dik) - 1967))
Composer(s): John Carter - Kenneth Alan Hawker - Franck Gérald
Performer(s): Richard Anthony - 1967
Il faut croire aux étoiles
Qui te disent, ne tremble pas
La vie n'est qu'une escale
Tous les hommes sont comme toi
Quand les feuilles mortes
Tombent sur ton cœur
Pour laisser la porte
S'ouvrir au bonheur
Il faut croire aux étoiles
Tes angoisses et tes tourments
Ne sont qu'un grain de sable
Qu'une larme dans l'océan
Moi dans le silence
D'une belle nuit
J'ai repris confiance
J'ai trouvé l'oubli
Il faut croire aux étoiles
Jusqu'à l'aube du dernier jour
Il faut croire aux étoiles
À la chance et à l'amour

Broken Hearted Me
Broken Hearted Me
Composer(s): Randy Goodrum
Performer(s): Anne Murray;
England Dan & John Ford Coley; Mantovani
Every now and then I cry
Every night you keep stayin' on my mind
All my friends say I'll survive
It just takes time
Chorus
But I don't think time is gonna heal this broken heart
No I don't see how it can if it's broken all apart
A million miracles could never stop the pain
Or put all the pieces together again
No I don't think time is gonna heal this broken heart
No I don't see how it can while we are still apart
And when you hear this song
I hope that you will see
That time won't heal a broken-hearted me
Every day is just the same
Playin' games, different lovers, different names
They keep sayin' I'll survive
It just takes time
Chorus
Time won't heal a broken-hearted me

Let's Sing A Love Song
Let's Sing A Love Song
Composer(s): Lobo
Performer(s): Petula Clark
I know I'm a woman
With a life of my own
I packed up and left you
I call another place home
Ah, but sometimes being grown
Is a hard thing to do
That's the time
I start thinking of you
So, let's sing a love song
Like we used to do
Just sing a love song
To see me through
We can sit in the backyard
On our old wide swing
I know I'll feel better
The moment I start to sing
That's the time
My worries leave me for a while
That's the time
Once again I'm that child
So, let's sing a love song
Like we used to do
Just need a love song
To see me through
But a lot of things change
As we grow old
Ah some things we buy
And others are sold
Ah, but one thing won't change
No matter what we do
That's the way I feel
When I'm with you
So, let's sing a love song
Like we used to do
Just need a love song
To see me through
Let's sing a love song
To see me through

Let's Go Steady For The Summer
Composer(s): Dick Glasser
Performer(s): The Three G's
Let's go steady for the Summer
Let's go steady for the Summer
Let me take you by the hand
We'll go strolling in the moonlight in a lovers wonderland
Let's go steady for the Summer
School is over we are free
No more homework in the evening
Nothing left but you and me
We'll share our love together in these days so few
Our love may last forever if you love me as I love you
Let's go steady for the Summer
School is over we are free
No more homework in the evening
Nothing left but you and me
Let's go steady for the summer

Broken Head
Broken Head
Composer(s): Brian Eno; Dieter Moebius; Hans-Joachim Roedelius
Performer(s): Brian Eno; Roger Miller
I was just a broken head
I stole the world that others punctured
Now I stumble through the garbage
Slide and tumble, slide and stumble
Beak and claw, remorse, remindless
Slide and tumble, slide and stumble
Back and forth and back to nothing
Keep them tidy, keep them humble
Chop and change to cut the corner
Sharp as razors, shiny razors
Stranded on a world that's dying
Never moving, hardly trying
I was just a broken head
I stole the world that others plundered
Now I stumble through the garbage
Slide and tumble, slide and stumble

Let's Settle Down
Let's Settle Down
Composer(s): Charles Strouse - Lee Adams
Can't shake that dream of you and me
in some little town
If you'd shape up
We'd settle down
Leave the mess and the stress
Of big city livin'
Trade that grabbing and shoving
For loving and giving
I'm tired of your talking
I want it now
That house and yard
with only birds bringing songs around
Don't be afraid to settle down
That green stuff's grass
and that smell everywhere
Know what that is?
Fresh air
The years are going by so fast
Hey, it's time we found some peace of mind
Our peace of ground, let's settle down

Performer(s): Neil Sedaka; Alan Lorber
Dum dum dum rat oh too, let's go steady again
Dum dum dum rat oh too, let's go steady again
Let's go steady again like we did before
Let's go steady again and be lovers once more
Wear the ring around your neck like you used to do
Don't you know it's wrong to break up
C'mon baby let's kiss and make up
Let's go steady again, like in the past
Let's show all of our friends that our love can last
I don't care of who was wrong
Come back here where you belong
C'mon baby let's go steady again
Monday...we said goodbye
Tuesday..all we did was cry
Wednesday.I almost lost my mind
Thursday...I was feelin blue
Friday..was the same way too
Never had a day, sad as Saturday
Even Sunday was no fun day
Let's go steady again like we used to do
Say you're ready and then we can start anew
Seven days we didn't speak it's been a long and lonely week
C'mon baby, let's go steady again
Dum dum dum rat oh too, let's go steady again
Dum dum dum rat oh too, let's go steady again
FADE: Dum dum dum rat oh too, let's go steady again

Originally performed by: Marianne Faithfull
Covered by various other artists
Could have come through anytime
Cold lonely, puritan
What are you fighting for?
It's not my security
It's just an old war
Not even a cold war
Don't say it in Russian
Don't say it in German
Say it in broken English
Say it in broken English
Lose your father, your husband
Your mother, your children
What are you dying for?
It's not my reality
It's just an old war
Not even a cold war
Don't say it in Russian

Say it in broken English
What are you fighting for?
What are you fighting for?

Could have come through anytime
Cold lonely, puritan
What are you fighting for?

Say it in broken English
Say it in broken English

First recording by: Robert McCoy - 1964
Covered by multiple other artists
Let's go get stoned
Let's go get stoned
When your baby won't let you in
Got a few pennies, a bottle of gin
Just call your buddy on the telephone
Let's go get stoned
Let's go get stoned
Let's go get stoned
When you work so hard all the day long
And everything you do seems to go wrong
Just drop by my place on your way home
Let's go get stoned
It ain't no harm
You're taking just a taste
But don't blow your cool and start messing up the place
It ain't no harm you're faking just a nip
But make sure you don't fall down bust your lip
Let's go get stoned
Let's go get stoned

Broken Dreams, Hard Road
Broken Dreams, Hard Road
Composer(s): John Lodge
Performer(s): John Lodge
I looked everywhere
Thought that I would find you
Thro' the night
Shadows dancing in the moonlight
Broken dreams
Hard Road
Wish I could write of the love
I have known
In my lifetime
Wish I could find just one word
One small line
When I'm down
The world has gone and changed
Its face
The world has gone and changed
Its place
While we were dreaming
For the Human Race
I know I've
Been down this road many times
Many ways
In my lifetime
And
Somehow the path that you've
Walked
In your life
Has led to me
Your love has gone and changed
My world
Your love has changed the world I
See
While I was waiting
You came to me
I looked everywhere
Knew that I would find you
Thro' the night
Shadows dancing in the moonlight
Broken dreams
Hard road
Hard, hard road
Hard road
Hard, hard road
(Repeat)

Let's Roll
Let's Roll
Composer(s): Neil Young
Performer(s): Neil Young
I know I said I love you
I know you know it's true
I got to put the phone down
And do what we gotta do
One's standing in the aisle way
Two more at the door
We got to get inside there
Before they kill some more
Time is runnin' out, let's roll
Time is runnin' out, let's roll
No time for indecision
We got to make a move
I hope that we're forgiven
For what we gotta do
How this all got started
I'll never understand
I hope someone can fly this thing
Get us back to land
Time is runnin' out, let's roll
Time is runnin' out, let's roll
No one has the answers
But one thing is true
You got to turn on evil
When it's comin' after you
You got to face it down
And when it tries to hide
You got to go in after it
And never be denied
Time is runnin' out, let's roll
Let's roll for freedom
Let's roll for love
Goin' after Satan
On the wings of a dove
Let's roll for justice
Let's roll for truth
Let's not let our children
Grow up fearful in their youth
Time is runnin' out, let's roll
Time is runnin' out, let's roll
Time is runnin' out, let's roll

Aaaah! Ich kenne Herzen, die sind aus Stein
Aaaah! Jedoch ich könnte nie herzlos sein
Es ist so herrlich sich zu verlieben
Es ist ein Wunder, wenn es geschieht
Es ist so herrlich sich zu verlieben
Und ist ein Wunder, wenn es geschieht
Aaaah! In Deinen Augen, da war ein Glanz
Aaaah! Das fühlt' ich schon beim ersten Tanz
Es ist so herrlich sich zu verlieben
Wer kann denn wissen, was morgen ist!?
Es ist so herrlich sich zu verlieben
Weil es ein Zaubertrank immer ist
Und der Himmel ging auf!
Und der Himmel ging auf für mich
Und der Himmel ging auf!
Und der Himmel ging auf für mich
Liebe, Liebe, Liebelei
Was kann schöner sein für uns zwei!?
Denn der Himmel ging auf!
Denn der Himmel ging auf für mich
Aaaah! Ein kleines Spielchen, ein netter Blick
Aaaah! Ja, so begann schon oft das Glück
Und der Himmel ging auf!
Und der Himmel ging auf für mich
Und der Himmel ging auf!
Und der Himmel ging auf für mich
Liebe, Liebe, Liebelei
Was kann schöner sein für uns zwei!?
Denn der Himmel ging auf!
Denn der Himmel ging auf für mich
Aaaah! Und ist auch morgen mein Traum vorbei
Aaaah! Es war ja nur eine Liebelei
Und der Himmel ging auf!
Und der Himmel ging auf für mich
Und der Himmel ging auf!
Und der Himmel ging auf für mich
Liebe, Liebe, Liebelei
Was kann schöner sein für uns zwei!?
Denn der Himmel ging auf!
Denn der Himmel ging auf für mich
Und der Himmel ging auf!
Und der Himmel ging auf für mich
Und der Himmel ging auf!
Und der Himmel ging auf für mich
Liebe, Liebe, Liebelei
Was kann schöner sein für uns zwei!?

Broken Dream
Broken Dream
Composer(s): Justin Hayward
Performer(s): Justin Hayward
One more illusion shattered
One more broken dream
Oh that the morning brings the sun
Gone are the days when I could bounce right back again
See how the tears roll down
Like sweet summer rain
Where does it leave me now
I find myself so free again
Even the smallest traces
Of your sweet perfume
Open the flood gates and I'm helpless
Now as the moonlight shadows
Cast across my room
Only the whispered words
Are heard in the night
Only a silent prayer
'I love you still
I always will'
Out of the dark I stumbled
Into the light
Only my fear has tumbled
I think I always knew
That I would run to you
Somewhere there's children playing
Somewhere far away
Running with open arms to greet me
Over the hill the sunset
Dies and fades away
I turn and I close the door
With one last goodbye
I will return no more
I'll take my heart and let it fly

Performer(s): Dean Martin
and multiple other artists
No more company to feed
No more papers left to read
What's to do about it?
Let's put out the lights and go to sleep
No more anything to drink
Leave those dishes in the sink
What's to do about it?
Simply nighty night and so to sleep
You're waiting now for me to say
"I love you more and more and more dear
You're looking younger ev'ry day
You never were so sweet before, dear"
No more money in the bank
No cute baby we can spank
What's to do about it?
Let's put out the lights and go to sleep
You're waiting now for me to say
"I love you more and more and more dear
You're looking younger ev'ry day
You never were so sweet before, dear"
No more money in the bank
No cute baby we can spank
What's to do about it?
Let's put out the lights
And go to sleep

Broken Down In Tiny Pieces
Broken Down In Tiny Pieces
Composer(s): John Adrian
Performer(s): Billy "Crash" Craddock
Broken down in tiny pieces
Love Ain’t really all that much
Just a song you used to whisper
Or a smile I tried to touch
Broken down in tiny pieces
Love ain’t hardly worth the time
Just a nickel that I borrowed
For a dream that cost a dime
Take me back to where I started
You can help me mend
Here I am in tiny pieces
Please put me back together again
Broken down in tiny pieces
Love’s a special kind of thing
A snowball in December
You remember in the spring
And you were all that I remember
Of the thing I tried to find
In between the broken pieces
You keep running through my mind
Can’t you see I’ll always love you
It won’t ever end
Here I am In tiny pieces
Please put me back together again
The first verse is spoken by a woman
starting after the first line of the fourth verse
and ending just before the last line of that verse
