My Friend The Wind
My Friend The Wind
Composer(s): Alec R. Costandinos; Stelios Vlavianos
Performer(s): Demis Roussos;
Roberto Delgado; Francisco Garcia
My friend the wind will come from the hills
When dawn will rise, he'll wake me again
My friend the wind will tell me a secret
He shares with me, he shares with me
My friend the wind will come from the north
With words of love, she whispered for me
My friend the wind will say she loves me
And me alone, and me alone
I'll hear her voice and the words
That he brings from Helenimou
Sweet as a kiss are the songs of Aghapimou
Soft as the dew is the touch of Manoulamou
Oh oh oh
We'll share a dream where I'm never away from Helenimou
Blue are the days like the eyes of Aghapimou
Far from the world will I live with Manoulamou
Oh oh oh
My friend the wind go back to the hills
And tell my love a day will soon come
Oh friendly wind you tell a secret
You know so well, oh you know so well
I'll hear her voice and the words
That he brings from Helenimou
Sweet as a kiss are the songs of Aghapimou
Soft as the dew is the touch of Manoulamou
Oh oh oh
La la la .... Helenimou
La la la .... Aghapimou
La la la .... Manoulamou

Goodbye Baby (Baby Goodbye)
Goodbye Baby (Baby Goodbye)
Composer(s): Wes Farrell; Bert Russell
Performer(s): Van Morrison; Solomon Burke
Goodbye baby, so long girl
I know you ain't gonna like it
But I'm stepping right out in your world
For I'm coming to your party
And I won't be able to stay
But I'm gonna kiss you one more time, lord
Then I'm going away
Goodbye baby hmm, baby goodbye hmm
You may be lonely, yeah, you may be hurt
Like a fool I gave you candy
You turned around and treated me like dirt
But still I'm gonna come to your party
And just before the break of day
I'm gonna touch you one more time, lord
Then I'm going away
Sing it to me again
Goodbye baby hmm ha, baby goodbye
Look out, what you see?
I see a train a-coming
A train a-coming down the long lonesome track
I'll tell you, girl, I gotta go on home now
But deep down in your heart
You know that someday I'm, I'm coming back
And I'm gonna look for you at your party
cause all the time I know that I'll find you there
And listen, I'm gonna dance with you
One more time, oh yeah
Sing it to me tonight now
Goodbye baby, sing it sweet baby goodbye
Lord, you're singing so sweet tonight goodbye baby
Goodbye baby baby baby baby goodbye
I'll see you around sometime, lord goodbye baby...

Teasin'
Teasin'
Composer(s): Richard Adler - Philip Springer
Performer(s): Petula Clark
Mummy told me she would scold me
if a boy I kissed
But I can't resist teasin'
Always gets `em, it upsets `em
But what can I do
`cause it's all so new, teasin'
Now the good book says that nothing repays
The harm a life of sin does
But I must confide, we can't decide
Till we find what it is that Errol Flynn does
Mummy told me she would scold me
if a boy I kissed
But I can't resist teasin'
At the riding school, the teacher was cool
And he seemed a harmless person
But after the ride he took me aside
And was I glad I kept my spurs on
Always gets `em, it upsets `em
But what can I do
`cause it's all so new, teasin'
There's a boy I like who likes to hike
But in no uncertain language
I refused to stop when he said he'd drop
If he didn't have a nibble at my corned beef sandwich
Mummy told me she would scold me
if a boy I kissed
But I can't resist teasin'
Now it's love that makes this world go round
`cause we all love hanky-panky (Do ya)
Keep one eye on an Englishman
But you'd better keep two on a gosh-darned Yankee
Always gets `em, it upsets `em
But when day is done
Where's the bloomin' fun
In teasin'
On a moonlight night
When the stars shine bright
Somehow Mama don't seem so right
`cause, faith, it's all so pleasin'

My Friend The Sea
My Friend The Sea
Composer(s): Jack Fishman; Ron Goodwin
Performer(s): Petula Clark
Oh, you great ocean so deep
Oh, you ocean so wide
I feel you are my friend
So in you I confide
You know the world
Every land, every shore
There's not a place
You don't explore
Send every wave
As it rolls on it's way
Searchin' high, searchin' low
Searchin' each little bay
Send out a plea to the
Whole of seven seas
Where is the one I adore
My friend, the sea
Be true to me
My love, one day
Sailed far away
My friend, the sea
Please ask the tide
To bring my love
Home to my side
Oh, you great ocean so deep
Oh, you ocean so wide
There are hearts you unite
There are hearts you divide
You know the world
Every riddle, mountain, stream
Look every where you've ever been
Ask all the fish as they swim out to sea
Would they pass on the word as a favor to me
Maybe they'll look out some little brook
And find the one I adore
My friend, the sea
Be good to me
My love, one day
Sailed far away
My friend, the sea
Please ask the tide
To bring my love
Home to my side

Tears On My Pillow
Tears On My Pillow
Composer(s): Sylvester Bradford - Al Lewis
First release by: Little Anthony & the Imperials - 1958
Covered by multiple other artists
You don't remember me, but I remember you
't was not so long ago, you broke my heart in two
Tears on my pillow, pain in my heart, caused by you, you
If we could start anew, I wouldn't hesitate
I'd gladly take you back, and tempt the hand of fate
Tears on my pillow, pain in my heart, caused by you
Love is not a gadget, love is not a toy
When you find the one you love, she'll fill your heart with joy
If we could start anew, I wouldn't hesitate
I'd gladly take you back, and tempt the hands of fate
Tears on my pillow, pain in my heart, caused by you, you
Oh wo wo wo you you
wo oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

My Friend The Rose
My Friend The Rose
French Title: Mon Amie La Rose
Performer(s): Michel Montecrossa & the Chosen Few
(Originally performed by: Françoise Hardy)
A lifetime comes and goes
And as my friend the rose said only yesterday
"This morning I was born and baptised in the dawn
I flowered in the dew and life was fresh and new
The sun shone through the cold
And through the day I grew, by night-time I was old"
"At least there's never been
No, you have never seen, a rose more bright and gay"
A lifetime comes and goes
And as my friend the rose said only yesterday
"The good lord smiled on me, so why then should it be
I feel I'm falling now, oh yes, I'm falling now
My heart no-one can save
My head begins to bow, my feet are in the grave"
The rose God smiled upon
Tomorrow will be gone, forever gone away
A lifetime comes and goes
And so my friend the rose was dead at break of day
The moon is shining bright and in my dreams tonight
Beneath the starlit sky, my friend the rose goes by
He has seen my dreams I see
A soul that wouldn't die, still watching over me
Whatever fortune brings
I'll hope for better things or life will just be grey
"A lifetime comes and goes"
That's what my friend the rose said only yesterday

Goodbye (Mary Hopkin)
Goodbye
Composer(s): John Lennon; Paul McCartney
Performer(s): Mary Hopkin;
The Beatles; Bill Janovitz;
Anthony Johnson; Anita Kerr; John Lennon
Please don't wake me until late tomorrow comes
And I will not be late
Late today when it becomes tomorrow
I will leave to go away
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye my love goodbye
Songs that lingered on my lips excite me now
And linger on my mind
Leave your flowers at my door
I'll leave them for the one who waits behind
Far away my lover sings a lonely song
And calls me to his side
When the song of lonely love
Invites me on I must go to his side
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye my love goodbye

Tears Of Rage
Tears Of Rage
Composer(s): Bob Dylan - Richard Manuel
First recording/First release by: Bob Dylan & The Band - 1967/1975
Covered by multiple other artists
We carried you in our arms on Independence Day
And now you'd throw us all aside and put us all away
Oh, what dear daughter 'neath the sun could treat a father so?
To wait upon him hand and foot and always tell him "No"
Tears of rage, tears of grief
Why must I always be the thief?
Come to me now, you know we're so low
And life is brief
It was all very painless
When you went out to receive
All that false instruction
Which we never could believe
And now the heart is filled with gold
As if it was a purse
But, oh, what kind of love is this
Which goes from bad to worse?
Tears of rage, tears of grief
Why must I always be the thief?
Come to me now, you know we're so low
And life is brief
We pointed you the way to go
And scratched your name in sand
Though you just thought it was nothing more
Than a place for you to stand
I want you to know that while we watched
You discovered no one would be true
And I myself was among
The ones who thought
It was just a childish thing to do
Tears of rage, tears of grief
Why must I always be the thief?
Come to me now, you know we're so low
And life is brief

My Friend The Doctor
My Friend The Doctor
Composer(s): Leslie Bricusse
Originally performed by: Anthony Newley
Covered by various other artists
Matthew:
He's altogether a marvellous man, an' he understands the Irish!
..........and any man who understands the Irish
Can't be reckoned altogether bad
The same way that a lunatic
Whose patron saint is Patrick
Can't be reckoned altogether mad
The doctor's very smart
He's an Irishman at heart
His favourite colour, sure it must be green
Also he's a man
Who'll blarney when he can
Let me explain the sort of thing I mean
My friend the doctor says
The moon is made of apple pie
And once a month it's eaten by the sun
And that is why
Up in the sky
You'll find as every month goes by
Somebody in the sky's makin' another one!
My friend the doctor says
The sun is made of cheddar cheese
The doctor even knows the reason why
The facts are these
Try if you please
Pretendin' you're a lonely cheese
Wouldn't you want to try findin' an apple pie?
Of course you would!
Maybe what the doctor tells me
Isn't altogether true
But I love every tale he tells me
I don't know any better ones - do you?
My friend the doctor says
The world is full of fantasy
And who are you and I to disagree?
Let's hope and pray
That is the way
The life we love will always stay
For my friend the doctor
And me!
Matthew & Company:
My friend the doctor says
The stars are made of lemon drops
The bigger ones are lollipops and ice
The clouds have shops
Up on the tops
That sell you sweets and soda - pops
What do they call the place - isn't it paradise?
Company:
My friend the doctor says
That every time it starts to rain
And people run indoors again in swarms
If you remain
Out in the rain
You'll think you're drinkin' pink champagne!
And you'll spend your life
Prayin' for thunderstorms!
Maybe what the doctor tells me
Isn't altogether true
But I love every tale he tells me
I don't know any better ones - do you?
Matthew:
My friend the doctor says
The world is full of fantasy
And who are you and I to disagree?
Let's hope and pray
That is the way
The life we love will always stay
For my friend the doctor
My friend the doctor and me!

Goodbye (Josef Locke)
Goodbye
Composer(s): Robert Stolz; Harry Graham
Performer(s): Josef Locke;
Vernon Midgley; David Whitfield
My heart is broken
But what care I?
Such pride inside me has woken
I'll try my best not to cry
By and by
When the final farewells must be spoken
I'll join the Legion
That's what I'll do
And in some far distant region
Where human hearts are staunch and true
I shall start my life anew
Good-bye, it's time
I sought a foreign clime
Where I may find
there are hearts more kind
Than I leave behind
And so, I go
To fight a savage foe
Although I know that
I'll be sometimes missed by the girls I've kissed
In some Abyssinian French Dominion
I shall do my bit
And fall for the flag if I must
Where the desert sand is nice and handy
I'll be full of grit
You won't see my heels for the dust
I'll do or die
You'll know the reason why
When told of bold Leopold's last stand
For the Fatherland
Good-bye, it's time
I sought a foreign clime
Where I may find
There are hearts more kind
Than I leave behind
And so, I go
To fight a savage foe
Although I know that
I'll be sometimes misses by the girls I've kissed
In some Abyssinian French Dominion
I shall do my bit
And fall for the flag if I must
Where the desert sand is nice and handy
I'll be full of grit
You won't see my heels for the dust
I'll do or die
You'll know the reason why
When told of bold Leopold's last stand
For the Fatherland
Good-bye
Good-bye
I wish you all a last Good-bye
Good-bye
Good-bye.
I wish you all a last Good-bye

Umbrellas
Umbrellas
Composer(s): Bruce Dedrick
Performer(s): The Free Design
I’m walking down the street in the rain, my umbrella high above my head
High above my head
Puddles along the wet sidewalks and gutters, (pitter patter)
Rain lightly falling from the sky (pitter patter)
Rain lightly falling from the sky
Red and green and free design
Umbrellas are in bloom, nourished by the rain
I’m walking down the street in the rain, my umbrella high above my head
High above my head
Though the clouds, the blackness and rain
I see the lightning strike as though it were pain
Rain falling hard on a sea of umbrellas
A colorful bottomless ocean
Then the wind it blows and it blows
I see the umbrellas bend, they creak and they groan
Gusting down alleys and through streets of cars
Causing unbottled unspent commotion
I spy a patch of blue through a cloud
A patch of blue through a shroud
Hopefully umbrellas hide and shrink and close
As the noonday sun peeks through the clouds

My Friend (Neil Sedaka)
My Friend
Composer(s): Howard Greenfield; Neil Sedaka
Performer(s): Neil Sedaka
When I'm unhappy and feeling lonely
and this old world of mine comes tumbling down
you are the someone on who I can depend
it's nice to know that I have you, my friend
When I get crazy, you understand me
you overlook the things I don't mean to say
You're there beside me whenever things go wrong
I'm never lonely knowing you're along
You and me, the two of us together
we go on and face the world whatever happens
No matter what gets in our way
we see it through from day to day
Right up until the very end
it's gonna be me and my friend
We share the good times, we share the bad times
we meet life head-on with its ups and its downs
Some people tell ya that life's a lonely ride
but not for us who travel side by side
You and me, the two of us together
we go on and face the world whatever happens
No matter what gets in our way
we see it through from day to day
Right up until the very end
it's gonna be me and my friend
I'm never lonely knowing you're along
You and me, the two of us together
we go on and face the world whatever happens
No matter what gets in our way
we see it through from day to day
Right up until the very end
it's gonna be me and my friend
It's gonna be me and my friend

Goodbye (Frank Sinatra)
Goodbye
Composer(s): Gordon Jenkins
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra;
and various other artists
I'll never forget you
I'll never forget you
I'll never forget how we promised one day
To love one another forever that way
We sad we'd never say, goodbye
But that was long ago
Now you've forgotten I know
No use to wonder why
Let's say farewell, with a sigh, let love die
But we'll go on living
Our own way of living
So you take the high road
And I'll take the low
It's time that we parted
It's much better so
But kiss me as you go, goodbye

Don't Turn Away
Don't Turn Away
Composer(s): Chris Dedrick
Performer(s): The Free Design
If we have a troubled time, do you stop admiring me?
When we see that we aren’t perfect, do you stop desiring me?
I could keep your eyes from crying
Please don’t turn your back on me
You could keep my heart from dying
Let me hold you, tenderly
Don’t turn away from me
don’t increase the distance between us when things aren’t right
I love you truly so help me, oh
Please let me bury my face in your hair
and my hopes in your care
My love in your body, my life in your heart
beating sadly on nights such as this
Dissolved in one kiss
I could keep your eyes from crying
Please don’t turn your back on me
You could keep my heart from dying
Let me hold you, tenderly
Don’t turn away from me
don’t increase the distance between us when things aren’t right
I love you truly so help me, oh
Please let me bury my face in your hair
and my hopes in your care
My love in your body, my life in your heart
beating sadly on nights such as this
Dissolved in one warm, wet, willing kiss

My Friend
Composer(s): Ervin Drake; Jimmy Shirl
Performer(s): Frankie Laine
and various other artists
My friend is the king of all kings
And yet my friend walks beside me
My friend rules the earth and the sun
And yet my friend stops to guide me
My friend takes my hand just when all appears in vain
And makes it plain, through joy or pain
He'll remain my friend
My friend tells me life is a road
And though it ends at the bending
My friend tells me then there's a road
beyond this road that is unending
Some day when I walk up that happy road that lies around the bend
Who will there be to welcome me
My friend
Who will there be to welcome me
My friend

Mets ton cœur à ta fenêtre
Va prendre un verre, ce soir tu m'as perdu
Goodbye (goodbye), goodbye (goodbye)

Et me poursuit, je veux savoir pourquoi

Tears In My Heart
Composer(s): Leonard Whitcup - Teddy Powell - Walter Samuels
Performer(s): Mildred Bailey
and multiple other artists
Tears in my heart
Oh how my soul cries for you!
I'm just a fool, broken hearted
Tears in my heart
what lonely nights I live through
My empty arms call for you
Once there were moonbeams
That used to dance around my heart
You brought the storm clouds
The lightning flash
Then the thunder crash
Oh where can there be
Another love just for me
To turn all the tears in my heart to joy?
