The English Roses
The English Roses
Composer(s): Chrissie Hynde
Performer(s): The Pretenders
Just before it rains
The wind whips 'round the balcony
And the sky closes on the English roses
And she'll be pacin'
'round and 'round and 'round and 'round her room
These storms always find here to remind her
To the endless sky
The pink over grey
She looks for an answer
But it's too late
Maybe it's true
Some things were just never meant to be
Maybe not
This is a story
Fruit cut from the vine
Forgot and left to rot
Long before its time
This is a story
About the girl who lived next door
Looking for someone to hold
A wish made on a star
Brought her here tonight
At a courtyard she waits
A thousand broken dates
But she holds the hymnal
Where so carefully pressed
Is the english rose she laid to rest
It's only a story
Flowers in full bloom
Bouquets in every room
Ooh, this is a story
Fruit cut from the vine
Looking for someone to hold

Castle Walls
Castle Walls
Composer(s): Dennis DeYoung
Performer(s): Styx
Once in a dream
Far beyond these castle walls
Down by the bay where the
Moonlit water falls
I stood alone while the minstrel sang his song
So afraid I'd lost my soul
There in the fog his song kept calling me
Leading me on with its haunting melody
Deep in my heart a voice kept echoing
I knew I'd soon be wandering
Far beyond these castle walls
Where the distant harbour meets the sky
There the battle rages like hell
And every dove had lost its will to fly
Far beyond these castle walls
Where I thought I heard Tiresias say
Life is never what it seems
And every man must meet his destiny

FM (No Static At All)
FM (No Static At All)
Composer(s): Walter Becker; Donald Fagen
Performer(s): Steely Dan
Bury of the bottle, Mamma, it's grape fruit wine
Kick off your high heel sneakers, it's party time
The girls don't seem to care what's on
As long as it plays till dawn
Nothin' but blues and Elvis
And somebody else's favorite song
Give her some funked up music she treats you nice
Feed her some hungry reggae she'll love you twice
The girls don't seem to care tonight
As long as the mood is right
No static at all
[No static at all]
No static at all
FM, no static at all
Give her some funked up music she treats you nice
Feed her some hungry reggae she'll love you twice
The girls don't seem to care tonight
As long as the mood is right
No static at all
[No static at all]
No static at all
FM, no static at all

First release by: Skeeter Davis - 1963
Covered by multiple other artists
Versions In Other Languages:
1963 - Fait Pour Durer (Frank Alamo)
1974 - For Evigt Forbi (Birthe Kjær)
Why does the sun go on shining
Why does the sea rush to shore
Don't they know it's the end of the world
'Cause you don't love me any more
Why do the birds go on singing
Why do the stars glow above
Don't they know it's the end of the world
It ended when I lost your love
I wake up in the morning and I wonder
Why everything's the same as it was
I can't understand, no, I can't understand
How life goes on the way it does
Why does my heart go on beating
Why do these eyes of mine cry
Don't they know it's the end of the world
It ended when you said goodbye
Why does my heart go on beating
Why do these eyes of mine cry
Don't they know it's the end of the world
It ended when you said goodbye

Covered by multiple other artists
I took a black cat, a cave bat
and threw them in a pot pot, pot pot, pot pot

sign sign, sign sign
I'm castin' my spell on you, I'm castin' my spell on you
I'm castin' my spell on you, you'll never never be untrue
I took a goat's tooth, an old shoe, and put them in the ground ground
ground ground, ground ground
I took an old dish, a dry fish, and made a crazy sound sound
sound sound, sound sound
I took a goose egg, a frog leg, and hid them in a sack sack
sack sack, sack sack
I got a Hindu, to tattoo, a genii on my back back
back back, back back
I'm castin' my spell on you, I'm castin' my spell on you
I'm castin' my spell on you, you'll never never be untrue

Flying On The Ground Is Wrong
Flying On The Ground Is Wrong
Composer(s): Neil Young
Performer(s): Buffalo Springfield;
The Guess Who; Rainy Day; Bill Williams
Is my world not falling down
I'm in pieces on the ground
And my eyes aren't open
And I'm standing on my knees
But if crying and holding on
And flying on the ground is wrong
Then I'm sorry to let you down
But you're from my side of town
And I miss you
Turn me up or turn me down
Turn me off or turn me round
I wish I could have met you in a place
Where we both belong
But if crying and holding on
And flying on the ground is wrong
Then I'm sorry to let you down
But you're from my side of town
And I miss you
Sometimes I feel like I'm just a helpless child
Sometimes I feel like a kid
But baby, since I have changed
I can't take nothing home
City lights at a country fair
Never shine but always glare
If I'm bright enough to see you
You're just to dark to care
But if crying and holding on
And flying on the ground is wrong
Then I'm sorry to let you down
But you're from my side of town
And I miss you

Fait Pour Durer
Fait Pour Durer
((Adapted from: The End Of The World (Skeeter Davis) - 1963))
((Danish Version: For Evigt Forbi (Birthe Kjær) - 1974))
Composer(s): Arthur Kent - Sylvia Dee - Pierre Saka
Performer(s): Frank Alamo - 1963
Les mots d'amour les plus simples
Les mots d'amour qui sont vrais
Tous ces mots qui sont faits pour durer
Ne doivent jamais s'oublier
Tous ces baisers qu'on se donne
Pour se prouver son bonheur
Je sais bien qu'ils sont faits pour durer
Autant que durera mon coeur
Je sais que les beaux jours vont s'arrêter
Et que ces fleurs vont se faner
Mais je sais aussi que le jour est fini
Qu'il nous revient après la nuit
Je crois alors à mon rêve
Je crois alors à l'amour
Mon amour qui est fait pour durer
Autant que dureront mes jours
Je crois alors à mon rêve
Je crois alors à l'amour
Mon amour qui est fait pour durer
Autant que dureront mes jours

Composer(s): Danny Kirwan

I wanna see your love
I wanna hear you say
The things that mean so much to me
’cause our love could last forever
Or it could fade away
Across the ocean
Deep commotion
Castaway
Across the ocean
Deep commotion

How can I get an answer
When you don’t even call
To hear the things I want to say
’cause our love could last forever
Or it could fade away
Across the ocean
Deep commotion

And now I’m on my own
Into the sunny day
And then the leaves on the trees
Start to sway
And now I’m on my own
Into the sunny day
And then the leaves on the trees
Start to sway
Then thoughts of you start to spin around my head
Thinks he’d rather be with you instead
Then thoughts of you start to spin around my head
Thinks he’d rather be with you instead
I wanna see your love
I wanna see your love

Flyin' high
Gonna be there
Flyin' high flyin' high

You speak in a whisper like the wind
Oh and when it touches you I see clearly
That we can be more than just friends

End Of The Innocence
End Of The Innocence
Composer(s): Bruce Hornsby - Don Henley
Performer(s): John Tesh
and multiple other artists
Remember when the days were long
And rolled beneath a deep blue sky
Didn't have a care in the world
With mommy and daddy standin' by
But "happily ever after" fails
And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales
The lawyers dwell on small details
Since daddy had to fly
But I know a place where we can go
That's still untouched by men
We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by
And the tall grass wave in the wind
You can lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair fall all around me
Offer up your best defense
But this is the end
This is the end of the innocence
O' beautiful, for spacious skies
But now those skies are threatening
They're beating plowshares into swords
For this tired old man that we elected king
Armchair warriors often fail
And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales
The lawyers clean up all details
Since daddy had to lie
But I know a place where we can go
And wash away this sin
We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by
And the tall grass wave in the wind
Just lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair spill all around me
Offer up your best defense
But this is the end
This is the end of the innocence
Who knows how long this will last
Now we've come so far, so fast
But, somewhere back there in the dust
That same small town in each of us
I need to remember this
So baby give me just one kiss
And let me take a long last look
Before we say goodbye
Just lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair fall all around me
Offer up your best defense
But this is the end
This is the end of the innocence

Cast Your Fate To The Wind
Cast Your Fate To The Wind
Composer(s): Vince Guaraldi
First release by: Vince Guaraldi - 1962
Covered by multiple other artists
A month of nights, a year of days
Octobers drifting into Mays
I set my sail as the tide comes in
And I just cast my fate to the wind
I shift my course along the breeze
Won't sail upwind on memories
The empty sky is my best friend
And I just cast my fate to the wind
Time has such a way of changing
A man throughout the years
And now I'm rearranging my life through all my tears
Alone, alone
There never was, there couldn't be
A place in time for men like me
Who'd drink the dark and laugh the day
And let their wildest dreams blow away.
Time has such a way of changing
A man throughout the years
And now I'm rearranging my life through all my tears
Alone, alone
So now I'm old, I'm wise and smart
I'm just a man with half a heart
I wonder how it might have been
Had I not cast my fate to the wind

Performer(s): Fred Astaire;
and various other artists
My Rio, Rio by the Sea-o
Flying down to Rio where there's rhythm and rhyme
Hey feller, twirl that old propeller
Got to get to Rio and we've got to make time
You'll love it, soaring high above it
looking down on Rio from a heaven of blue
Send a radio to Rio de Janeiro
With a big hello just so they'll know and stand by there
We'll fly there
Hey, Rio, everything will be okay
We're singing and winging our way to you

Fall down like bird with no wings...
The Pyre's Song
Pull for last time black rain's strings...
Go... and I follow you soon
In misty shades of this moon
Call... stamp your voice in my mind
Deep inside...
Death, waking us by cold breath
Confessed - it's moment to leave
Wind takes away all my tears
Light would not help as it sears...
Sleep... slip away down below...
Sure, I know...
I'd break my chains if I still could fly
Without your touch
Without your smile
No more wish to expire
For this dead lonely pyre
Still I'm burning my fire
All the worlds are not enough
As I never see your eyes...
... don't you hear anymore?
No matter when I meet you
No chance-why does it seem true
Forever you're staying here
(You're staying here)
And I see you so clear
Live in my soul, in my heart
Endless smart...
I'd break my chains if I still could fly so high
Without your touch
Without your smile
No more wish to expire
For this dead lonely pyre
Still I'm burning my fire...
All the worlds are not enough
As I never see your eyes
Anytime... anywhere in my life...

In the summer night
when the moon shines bright
feeling love forever
and the heat is on
when the daylight is gone
still - happy together
there is just one more thing I would like to add
she is the greatest love I've ever had
fly on the wings of love
fly, baby, fly
reaching the stars above
touching the sky
and as time goes by
there is a lot to try
and I'm feeling lucky
In the softest sand
smiling hand in hand
love is all around me
there is just one more thing I would like to add
she is the greatest love I've ever had
fly on the wings of love
fly, baby, fly
reaching the stars above
touching the sky

If we could feel the thunder
And we could touch the hunger
Our tears inside the storm
Are lost and without form
We reach out to enfold
To save our souls
We think we hear the heart beat
In places where our worlds meet
One world that holds for us all
Enough, that no-one need fall
The stranger we would console
May save our souls
We believe - still...
We still believe
That we can see
To save us all...
Save us all...
If we could feel the thunder...
And we could touch the hunger... (hunger)

Composer(s): John Perry Barlow - Bob Weir
First release by: Grateful Dead - 1981
Covered by multiple other artists
I have seen where the wolf has slept by the silver stream
I can tell by the mark he left, you were in his dream
Ah child of countless trees
Ah child of boundless seas
What you are, what you're meant to be
Speaks his name, though you were born to me
Born to me, Cassidy
Lost now on the country miles on his Cadillac
I can tell by the way you smile, he is rolling back
Come wash the night-time clean
Come grow the scorched ground green
Blow the horn, tap the tambourine
Close the gap of the dark years in between
You and me, Cassidy
Quick beats in an icy heart
Catch colt draws a coffin cart
There he goes and now here she starts
Hear her cry
Flight of the seabirds
Scattered like lost words
Wheel to the storm and fly
Faring thee well now
Let your life proceed by its own designs
Nothing to tell now
Let the words be yours, I'm done with mine

You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you
(instrumental - first verse)
Fill my heart with song
Let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, in other words
I love you
