Memories (Leonard Cohen)
Memories
Danish Title: Minder
Composer(s): Leonard Cohen; Phil Spector
Originally performed by: Leonard Cohen
Frankie Laine, he was singing Jezebel
I pinned an Iron Cross to my lapel
I walked up to the tallest and the blondest girl
I said, Look, you don't know me now but very soon you will
So won't you let me see
I said "won't you let me see"
I said "won't you let me see
Your naked body?"
Just dance me to the dark side of the gym
Chances are I'll let you do most anything
I know you're hungry, I can hear it in your voice
And there are many parts of me to touch, you have your choice
Ah but no you cannot see
She said "no you cannot see"
She said "no you cannot see
My naked body"
So We're dancing close, the band is playing Stardust
Balloons and paper streamers floating down on us
She says, You've got a minute left to fall in love
In solemn moments such as this I have put my trust
And all my faith to see
I said all my faith to see
I said all my faith to see
Her naked body

One For Sorrow
One For Sorrow
Performer(s): Dorothy Squires
One for sorrow, two for joy
Three for a letter and four for a boy
Five for silver, six for gold
Seven for a secret that’s never been told
Do you remember, as a child, looking up into the sky
Counting blackbirds on the wing and the song we used to sing?
One for sorrow, two for joy
Three for a letter and four for a boy
Five for silver, six for gold
Seven for a secret that’s never been told
On the day you left me, came blackbird number one
Bringing me the sorrow and took away the sun
I searched the sky, that lonely sky
For two or three or four
For joy a letter would bring to me
From the boy who I adore
One for sorrow, two for joy
Three for a letter and four for a boy
You left me over things I said
You know my love is true
And five would turn my darkest clouds
Into a silver dew
Today I saw six blackbirds
Flying on their way
A lonely blackbird joined them
And they seemed to say
Five for silver, six for gold
Seven for a secret that’s never been told
You’re coming back to me my love
With a band of gold
And then I’ll share a secret
A secret I’ve never told
One for sorrow, two for joy
Three for a letter and four for a boy
Five for silver, six for gold
Seven for a secret that’s never been told

Memories (Elvis Presley)
Memories
Composer(s): Bill Strange; Mac Davis
Originally performed by: Elvis Presley
Covered by various other artists
Memories, pressed between the pages of my mind
Memories, sweetened thru the ages just like wine
Quiet thought come floating down
And settle softly to the ground
Like golden autumn leaves around my feet
I touched them and they burst apart with sweet memories
Sweet memories
Of holding hands and red bouquets
And twilight trimmed in purple haze
And laughing eyes and simple ways
And quiet nights and gentle days with you
Memories, pressed between the pages of my mind
Memories, sweetened thru the ages just like wine
Memories, memories, sweet memories

One For My Baby (And One More For The Road)
One For My Baby (And One More For The Road)
Composer(s): Harold Arlen; Johnny Mercer
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra;
and various other artists
It's quarter to three
there's no one in the place except you and me
So, set 'em up, Joe
I got a little story you ought to know
We're drinking, my friend
to the end of a brief episode
Make it one for my baby and one more for the road
I got the routine
so drop another nickel in the machine
I'm feeling so bad, wish you'd make the music pretty and sad
Could tell you a lot, but you've got to be true to your code
So, make it one for my baby and one more for the road
You'd never know it but buddy, I'm a kind of poet
And I got a lot of things to say
And when I'm gloomy, you simply got to listen to me
Till it's all talked away
Well that's how it goes and Joe, I know your getting pretty anxious to close
So, thanks for the cheer, I hope you didn't mind my bending your ear
This torch that I found must be drowned or it soon might explode
So, make it one for my baby and one more for the road
That long, long road

Memories (Bing Crosby)
Memories
Composer(s): Egbert Van Alstyne; Gus Kahn
Performer(s): Bing Crosby
and various other artists
Round me at twilight come stealing
Shadows of days that are gone
Dreams of the old days revealing
Mem'ries of love's golden dawn
Memories, memories
Dreams of love so true
O'er the sea of memory
I'm drifting back to you
Childhood days, wild wood days
Among the birds and bees
You left me alone, but still you're my own
In my beautiful memories
Sunlight may teach me forgetting
Noonlight brings thoughts that are new
Twilight brings sighs and regretting
Moonlight means sweet dreams of you
Memories, memories
Dreams of love so true
O'er the sea of memory
I'm drifting back to you
Childhood days, wild wood days
Among the birds and bees
You left me alone, but still you're my own
In my beautiful memories

One For Jo
One For Jo
Composer(s): Bert Jansch
Performer(s): Bert Jansch
It's one for Jo
Don't let your mind go
He's a dreamer darlin'
He's even kind of slow
I don't believe the tales he tells
But they're always nice to have
He's a dreamer darlin'
I always gave him that
In a white tuxedo
He's remarkably cool
A prince of livin'
Knows all the rules
and a black sedan so royaly
Takes his love to school
No one can reproach him
No one but a fool
He's a bold sea captain
In his books and oilskin hat
He's struggling blindly
Through seas wild and black
For down the river he glides
With his maiden by his side
You think of that girl
How can your love hide?
It's one for Jo
Don't let your mind go
He's a dreamer darlin'
He's even kind of slow
I don't believe the tales he tells
But they're always nice to have
He's a dreamer darlin'
I always gave him that

Memories (10 cc)
Memories
Composer(s): Graham Gouldman; Eric Michael Stewart
Performer(s): 10 cc
The summers were longer, they went on forever
Oh and the sky so blue
We never worried about anything
We didn't question the nature of things
We didn't want to know
Talking in whispers and wondering
Oh and I loved you so
Memories, they linger with you but you
soon forget that we started in innocence
Memories, they linger with you but you
soon forget when you're grown
We dream in the night, of mythical days
And nights in white satin
But when the child wakes, the fantasy breaks
We didn't know what the future would bring
We didn't want to know
Something was growing inside me
Oh and I loved you so
Memories, they linger with you but you
soon forget that we started in innocence
Memories, they linger with you but you
soon forget when you're grown
Photographs, faded photographs
Holidays, summer holidays
First love, broken promises
All a play, I'm going back to yesterday
The feeling was stronger, if went on forever
Oh and your eyes were true
We were so wrapped up in all of our dreams
We didn't care what the future would bring
We didn't want to know
Talking in whispers and wondering
Oh and I loved you so......
Memories, they linger with you but you
soon forget that we started in innocence
Memories, they linger with you but you
soon forget when you're grown

One Foot Out The Door
One Foot Out The Door
Composer(s): Edward Van Halen;
David Lee Roth; Michael Anthony; Alex Van Halen
Performer(s): Van Halen
I grabbed that telephone
I thought we were alone
Telling me there's company
Your husband's comin' home
I've been thinking about this Saturday night with you
I've been thinking about it all week long
And now I'm gonna lose it 'cause that
Son-of-a-bitch got me singin' that same old song
Got one foot out the door
Tryin' to hit the road
Ain't no match for your mean old man
I think it's time to roll
Got one foot out the door
Got one foot out the door
Think I'm gonna fight him?
Don't you let him put down
Put that to the floor
Put the pedal to the metal
And you beat it out of town
No comin' back, back for more

Memorial Day
Memorial Day
Composer(s): Carly Simon
Performer(s): Carly Simon
It should have been so soft
This morning as we left
But the valley was infected by a different kind of beauty
And the indians, they knew
It was a devil's sanctuary
Out of this unholy dawn
A car came stirring up the sand
And a woman from a passion play
Held up the limousine
That brought me all this way today
And I didn't need to turn around
So strong was the message
And the man who planned her life
Commanded all that followed
Well, they bellowed and they hollered
And they threw each other down
Down in this valley
This cruel and lovely valley
Oh, it should have been an alley
In some low-down part of town
As the light came up
There was no sun
And brandy splattered all over the ground
As this woman with her head held high
Yelled "Love!" and "Why, oh why!"
"You're killing me, oh, follow me!"
As I watched safe and clean
From the frosted windows in the limousine
Well, they bellowed and they hollered
And they threw each other down
Down in this valley
This cruel and lovely valley
Oh, it should have been an alley
In some low-down part of town
Before he'd been so funny
Imagining the best
That he'd escape recrimination
For abandoning the nest
He'd been joking and stoned
While he was entertaining me
But then turned and was stunned
By her panic and her misery
And I was in the getaway car
Giving him a chance to get away
Get away, get away
Get away, get away, get away
And how the valley smoked
As he crossed Route 25
With his cymbals and his shattered crown
Leaving all alone
His eyes fixed on the ground
And he didn't need to turn around
So strong was the message
And he fell into the shallow sky
And was swallowed
Well, they bellowed and they hollered
And they threw each other down
Down in this valley
This cruel and lovely valley
Oh, it should have been an alley
In some low-down part of town

One Fine Morning
One Fine Morning
Composer(s): Skip Prokop
Performer(s): Lighthouse;
Augusto Martelli; Santana; The Skycoasters
One fine morning, girl, I'll wake up
Wipe the sleep from my eyes
Go outside and feel the sunshine
Then I know I'll realize
That as long as you love me, girl, we'll fly
And on that mornin' when I wake up
I'll see your face inside a cloud
See your smile inside a window
Hear your voice inside a crowd
Calling, "Come with me baby and we'll fly"
Yeah, we'll fly-y-y, yeah, we'll fly
We'll fly-y-y, yeah, we'll fly
And on that mornin' when I wake up
We'll go outside and live our dreams
I'll buy you candies made of stardust
And little dolls dressed up in moonbeams
And everywhere we go we'll laugh and sing
I'll kiss you morning, noon and night
And all the universe will smile on us
'Cause they know that our love is finally right
Yeah, we'll fly-y-y, yeah, we'll fly
We'll fly-y-y, yeah, we'll fly
Yeah, we'll fly to the east, we'll fly to the west
There'll be no place we can't call our own
Yeah, we'll fly to the north, we'll fly to the south
Every planet will become our home
------ piano -------
Yeah, we'll fly-y-y, yeah, we'll fly
Yeah, we'll fly to the east, we'll fly to the west
There'll be no place we can't call our own
We'll fly to the north, we'll fly to the south
Every planet will become our home

Zelfs Al Kwam Je Terug
Zelfs Al Kwam Je Terug
French & Italian Titles:
Même Si Tu Revenais; Non È Casa Mia
Composer(s): Vline Buggy; Bernard Kesslair;
Jacques Chaumelle; Ingrid Mank
Performer(s): Isabelle A
(Originally performed by: Claude François)
Een verlaten weg
in een lege stad
een gesloten hek
een vergeten pad
aan het eind daarvan
een verloren droom
het is ons huis zo leeg
en onbewoond
achter elke boom
een herinnering
aan de tijd waarin alles vanzelf ging
en in onze tuin
waar zoveel tijd inkroop
staat een bord met 'huis te koop'
Maar zelfs, zelfs al kwam je terug
t'is te laat je bent te ver gevlucht
en mijn hart is eindelijk weer van mij
ik zet geen stap meer terug
ik ga niet meer opzij
Want zelfs, zelfs al kwam je terug
t'is te laat je bent te ver gevlucht
en mijn hart is eindelijk weer van mij
zelfs al kwam je terug
je hoort er niet meer bij
Het heeft lang geduurt voor het over was
voor ik alle wanhoop weer te boven was
nu ik niet meer smachtend op je liefde wacht
is het zoveel mooier dan ik dacht
en mijn huis is klein en mijn bed is leeg
elke ochtend maak ik thee voor mij alleen
ik heb geen paleis in een koninkrijk
maar heb mijn vrijheid terug dus ben ik rijk
Maar zelfs, zelfs al kwam je terug
t'is te laat je bent te ver gevlucht
en mijn hart is eindelijk weer van mij
ik zet geen stap meer terug
ik ga niet meer opzij
Want zelfs, zelfs al kwam je terug
t'is te laat je bent te ver gevlucht
en mijn hart is eindelijk weer van mij
zelfs al kwam je terug
je hoort er niet meer bij
Maar zelfs, zelfs al kwam je terug
t'is te laat je bent te ver gevlucht
en mijn hart is eindelijk weer van mij
ik zet geen stap meer terug
ik ga niet meer opzij
Want zelfs, zelfs al kwam je terug
t'is te laat je bent te ver gevlucht
en mijn hart is eindelijk weer van mij
zelfs al kwam je terug
je hoort er niet meer bij
Zelfs al bied je mij je excuses aan
ja zelfs al zou je smekend op je knie?n gaan
ik geef niet meer toe aan verloren tijd
t'is voorgoed gedaan
je bent me kwijt
(maar zelfs)
Maar zelfs, zelfs al kwam je terug
t'is te laat je bent te ver gevlucht
en mijn hart is eindelijk weer van mij
ik zet geen stap meer terug
ik ga niet meer opzij
Want zelfs, zelfs al kwam je terug
t'is te laat je bent te ver gevlucht
en mijn hart is eindelijk weer van mij
zelfs al kwam je terug
je hoort er niet meer bij

One Fine Day (The Chiffons)
One Fine Day
Composer(s): Carole King; Gerry Goffin
Performer(s): The Chiffons
One fine day, you'll look at me
And you will know our love was, meant to be
One fine day, you're gonna want me for your girl
The arms I long for, will open wide
And you'll be proud to have me, right by your side
One fine day, you're gonna want me for your girl
Though I know you're the kind of boy
Who onlu wants to run around
I'll keep waiting, and, someday darling
You'll come to me when you want to settle down
Oh!
One fine day, we'll meet once more
And then you'll want the love you threw away before
One fine day, you're gonna want me for your girl
One fine day, you're gonna want me for your girl

Même Si Tu Revenais
Dutch & Italian Titles:
Zelfs Al Kwam Je Terug; Non È Casa Mia
Composer(s): Jacques Chaumelle; Vline Buggy; Bernard Kesslair
Originally performed by: Claude François
Covered by: Adrienne Pauly; Dalida; Isabelle A
Un p'tit coin perdu très loin de la ville
Une route sauvage sous un ciel tranquille
Et cette grande entrée au bout du chemin
Je pousse la grille et soudain
Une grande maison au bout d'une allée
Une grande maison toute abandonnée
Et puis sur la porte une petite pancarte
Où on a écrit "à louer"
Même si tu revenais
Je crois bien que rien n'y ferait
Notre amour est mort à jamais
Je souffrirais trop si tu revenais
Le vent s'est levé là-haut au premier
Ce volet qui bat ne ferme toujours pas
Ce volet grinçant cachait note amour
Tu m'avais promis mais un jour
Un jour comme un autre je t'ai attendue
Jusqu'au petit matin, mais tu n'es pas venue
Les mois ont passé, malgré moi, j'attends
Je t'attends encore, et pourtant
Même si tu revenais
Je crois bien que rien n'y ferait
Notre amour est mort à jamais
Je souffrirais trop si tu revenais

One Fine Day (Deanna Durbin)
One Fine Day
Composer(s): Giacomo Puccini;
Luigi Illica; Giuseppe Giacosa
Performer(s): Deanna Durbin
Weeping? And why? And why?
Ah, 'tis faith you are lacking
Hear me
One fine day we'll notice
A thread of smoke arising on the sea
In the far horizon
And then the ship appearing
Then the trim white vessel
Glides into the harbour
Thunders forth her cannon
See you? Now he is coming
I do not go to meet him
Not I
I stay upon the brow of the hillock
And wait there
And wait for a long time
But never weary of the long waiting
From out the crowded city
There is coming a man
A little speck in the distance
Climbing the hillock
Can you guess who it is?
And when he's reached the summit
Can you guess what he'll say?
He will call, "Butterfly" from the distance
I, without answering
Hold myself quietly concealed
A bit to tease him and a bit
So as not to die at our first meeting
And then, a little troubled
He will call, he will call
"Dear baby wife of mine,
Dear little orange blossom"
The names he used to call me when he came here
This will all come to pass as I tell you
Banish your idle fears
For he will return
Return

Même Si J'y Reste
Même Si J'y Reste
Composer(s): Francis Cabrel
Performer(s): Francis Cabrel
Y a sûrement une piste à l'autre bout du monde
Sur une île perdue où le ciel se lamente
Depuis qu'ont disparu les avions de quarante
On ne peut pas toujours vivre les vieilles et mêmes choses
Il faudra bien qu'un jour mon appareil s'y pose
Les ailes déchirées par les vents du parcours
Ne me permettront pas le voyage retour
Même si j'y reste
Même si j'en pleure
Même si j'y attrape la peste
Même si j'en meure
Rien ne me fera regretter mon geste
À force de dormir sous les brises marines
Il ne restera rien de mes anciennes racines
Je n'aurai que ma peau pour unique prison
Trois ou quatre photos et la moitié d'un crayon
J'y vivrai tout le temps qu'on voudra que j'y vive
Mes histoires d'amour belles et définitives
Pour les arbres, les fleurs et les caméléons
Pour les vagues qui viennent et celles qui s'en vont
Même si j'y reste
Même si j'en pleure
Même si j'y attrape la peste
Même si j'en meure
Rien ne me fera regretter mon geste
Même si j'y reste
Juste en face, la mer sur des blocs de granit
Un jour j'irai graver les raisons de ma fuite
Avec les reflets blancs du regard des sirènes
J'avais peur des chemins qu'on voulait que je prenne
Même si j'y reste
Même si j'en pleure
Même si j'y attrape la peste
Même si j'en meure
Rien ne me fera regretter mon geste
Même si j'y reste
Même si j'en pleure
Même si j'y attrape la peste
Même si j'en meure
Rien ne me fera regretter mon geste
Hey, même si j'y reste
Si j'en pleure
Si j'en meure
Rien ne me fera regretter mon geste

One Dyin' And A Buryin'
One Dyin' And A Buryin'
Composer(s): Roger Miller
Performer(s): Roger Miller
Well
I think I finally found me a sure-fire way to forget
It's so simple, I'm surprised I hadn't done thought of it before yet
It's foolproof - well, it's foolhardy, maybe, but who knows
Anyway, here I am walking toward where the cold dark water flows
Cos all it takes is:
One dying and a buryin'
One dying and a buryin'
Some crying
Six carrying me
I wanna be free
Oh...I wanna be free
Free from all this heartache and regret
And free from pining for the love I can't forget
The love that once was warm and then just somehow turned to hate
Made my life a prison from which there's only one escape
And that's:
One dying and a buryin'
One dying and a buryin'
Some cryin'
Six carryin' me
I wanna be free
One dying and a buryin'
One dying and a buryin'
Some cryin'
Six carryin' me
I wanna be free

German Title: Wer Uns Getraut
Composer(s): Oscar Hammerstein II; Dimitri Tiomkin
Performer(s): Richard Tauber;
and various other artists
One day when we were young
That wonderful morning in May
You told me you loved me
When we were young one day
Sweet songs of spring were sung
And music was never so gay
You told me you loved me
When we were young one day
You told me you loved me
And held me close to your heart
We laughed then, we cried then
Then came the ti-ime to part
When songs of spring are sung
Remember that morning in May
Remember you loved me
When we were young one day
We laughed then, we cried then
Then came the ti-ime to par-art
When songs of spring are sung
Remember that morning in May
Remember you loved me
When we were young one day...
