Hold On To Our Love
Hold On To Our Love
Composer(s): Gary Miller - Tim Woodcock
First performance by: James Fox - 2004
Maybe I've been foolish letting you down
I've been a little selfish not being around
But if I lost you, I'd be helpless inside
Gotta hold on to our love tonight
'Cause now that I've found that someone I believe in
And I feel so complete by your side
It's the only time I've ever loved somebody, baby, in my life
We gotta hold on to our love tonight
I know that you've been hurting
The pain's in your eyes
I promise you I'm changing, I feel it inside
I don't know what I would do if it all passes by
We gotta hold on to our love tonight
'Cause now that I've found that someone I believe in
And I feel so complete by your side
It's the only time I've ever loved somebody, baby, in my life
We gotta hold on to our love tonight
Some things in life we should treasure
When you find love, never let it go
Because now I realise and I want you to know
'Cause now that I've found that someone I believe in
And I feel so complete by your side
It's the only time I've ever loved somebody, baby, in my life
We gotta hold on to our love tonight
'Cause now that I've found that someone I believe in
And I feel so complete by your side
It's the only time I've ever loved somebody, baby, in my life
We gotta hold on to our love tonight
We gotta hold on to our love tonight

X-Offender
X-Offender
Composer(s): Debbie Harry - Gary Valentine
First release by: Blondie - 1976
Covered by multiple other artists
I saw you standing on the corner, you looked so big and fine
I really wanted to go out with you, so when you smiled
I laid my heart on the line
You read me my rights and then you said "Let's go" and nothing more
I thought of my nights, and how they were
They were filled with
I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in
I had to know so I asked
You just had to laugh
We sat in the night with my hands cuffed at my side
I look at your life and your style
I wanted nothing more
I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in
I had to know so I asked
You just had to laugh
Walking the line, you were a marksman
Told me that law, like wine, is ageless
Public defender
You had to admit
You wanted the love of a sex offender
I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in
I had to know so I asked
You just had to laugh
My vision in blue, I call you from inside my cell
And in the trial, you were there
With your badge and rubber boots
I think all the time how I'm going to perpetrate love with you
And when I get out, there's no doubt I'll be sex offensive to you

Performer(s): Louis Armstrong & His Savoy Ballroom Five - 1928/1929
and multiple other artists
I went down to the St. James Infirmary
Saw my baby there
She stretched out on a long white table
So sweet, so cold, so fair
Let her go, let her go, God bless her
Wherever she may be
She can look this wide world over
But she'll never find a sweet man like me
When I die want you to dress me in straight lace shoes
I wanna a boxback coat and a Stetson hat
Put a twenty dollar gold piece on my watch chain
So the boys'll know that I died standing flat

Performer(s): Botones - 1980
Aquí jamás se ha acostado el sol
Y el tiempo da marcha atrás
Viviendo en Xanadú
Aquí podrás bailar sobre el mar
Llueve y jamás te mojas
Viviendo en Xanadú
Los trenes vuelan como los pájaros, es mágico
Nadan las piedras, bailan las máquinas fantásticas
Xanadú, Xanadú
Quédate aquí en Xanadú
Xanadú, Xanadú
Quédate aquí en Xanadú
Dime tú si has visto un sitio así como Xanadu
Aquí las calles son de cristal
Y el viento baila en patines
Viviendo en Xanadú
Aquí no se necesita hablar
Aqui todo se comprende
Viviendo en Xanadu
Los coches nunca llevan matrículas ridículas
Y las hormigas tocan su armónica minúscula
Xanadú, Xanadú
Quédate aquí en Xanadú
Xanadú, Xanadú
Quédate aquí en Xanadú
Quédate aquí
Serás feliz en Xanadú
Quédate aquí
Serás feliz en Xanadú

A place where nobody dared to go
The love that we came to know

A shooting star
An everlasting world and you're here with me
Eternally

The dream that came through a million years
That lived on through all the tears
It came to Xanadu
A million lights are dancing and there you are
A shooting star
An everlasting world and you're here with me

When You Are Old And Gray
When You Are Old And Gray
Composer(s): Tom Lehrer
Performer(s): Tom Lehrer
Since I still appreciate you let's find love while we may
because I know I'll hate you when you are old and gray
So say you love me here and now, I'll make the most of that
Say you love and trust me for I know you'll disgust me
when you're old and getting fat
An awful debility a lessened utility a loss of mobility is a strong possibility
In all probability I'll lose my virility and you your fertility and desirability
And this liability of total sterility will lead to hostility and sense of futility
So let's act with agility while we still have facility
for we'll soon reach senility and lose the ability
Your teeth will start to go dear, your waist will start to spread
in twenty years of so dear I'll wish that you were dead
I'll never love you then at all the way I do today
So please remember when I leave in December
I told you so in May

When I see that girl go walking by
I know a boy shouldn't cry
Here it comes again, that feeling
Here it comes again
When I see her look into his eyes
No matter how I try
Here it comes again, that feeling
Here it comes again
I find I'm cry-y-y-y-in over you
I know it's nothing to do-o-o-o-
Now I'm on my own, I walk alone
A heart without a home
Here it comes again, that feeling
Here it comes again
When love walked out a fire went out inside of me
It wouldn't hide those tears inside of me
Then there's nothing left for me to say
You no, you no, you no you broke my heart
Here it comes again, that feeling
Here it comes again
I find I'm cry-y-y-y-in over you
I know it's nothing to do-o-o-o-
I know it's not the thing to do
Now I'm on my own, I walk alone
A heart without a home

Version In Other Languages:
1973 - Kärlekssång (by Sylvia Vrethammar)
1976 - Canción De Amor (by Miguel Gallardo)
The words I have to say
May well be simple but they're true
Until you give your love
There's nothing more that we can do
Love is the opening door
Love is what we came here for
No-one could offer you more
Do you know what I mean
Have your eyes really seen
You say it's very hard
To leave behind the life we knew
But there's no other way
And now it's really up to you
Love is the key we must turn
Truth is the flame we must burn
Freedom the lesson we must learn
Do you know what I mean?
Have your eyes really seen?

Here is my heart you can take it
There's a time in your life for believing
That impossible dream in your heart
When you find in one magical moment

I can see in your eyes it's you I've dreamed of
Here is my heart you can take it
Love so strong, can't be wrong
Here is my heart please don't break it
Come what may, here I'll stay
Here is my heart, only for you
If I gave you the keys of a kingdom
If I dressed you in diamonds and pearls
It could never compare to the feeling
We have together, right now
On a night like tonight, you're everything
For once in my life it feels like heaven
Here is my heart you can take it
Love so strong, can't be wrong
Here is my heart please don't break it
Come what may, here I'll stay
Here is my heart, only for you
Here is my heart, now and forever yours

Paradise is where we are
Living it up will never stop
Dancing together

Feel the rhythm in your soul
Nothing is going to stop us
When we're dancing together
All night long, forever
Here is my heart you can take it
Here is my heart please don't break it
Here is my heart you can take it
Love so strong, can't be wrong

St. George And The Dragonet
St. George And The Dragonet
Composer(s): Daws Butler - Stan Freberg - Walter Schumann
Performer(s): Stan Freberg; June Foray; Walter Schumann
Narrator:
The legend you are about to hear is true
Only the needle should be changed to protect the record
St. George:
This is the countryside
My name is St. George
I'm a knight
Saturday, July 10th, 8:05 p.m.
I was working out of the castle on the night watch when a call came in from the Chief
A dragon had been devouring maidens
Homicide
My job: slay him
You call me, Chief?
Chief:
Yes, the dragon again, devouring maidens
The King's daughter may be next
St. George:
Mmm-hmm
You got a lead?
Chief:
Oh, nothing much to go on
Say, did you take that .45 automatic into the lab to have them check on it?
St. George:
Yeah
You were right
Chief:
I was right?
St. George:
Yeah
It was a gun
8:22 p.m.
I talked to one of the maidens who had almost been devoured.
Could I talk to you, Ma'am?
Maiden:
Who are you?
St. George:
I'm St. George, Ma'am
Homicide, Ma'am
Want to ask you a few questions, Ma'am
I understand you were almost devoured by the dragon
Is that right, Ma'am?
Maiden:
It was terrible
He breathed fire on me!
He burned me already!
St. George:
How can I be sure of that, Ma'am?
Maiden:
Believe me, I got it straight from the dragon's mouth
St. George:
11:45 p.m.
I rode over the King's Highway
I saw a man
Stopped to talk to him
Pardon me, Sir
Could I talk to you for just a minute, Sir?
Knave:
Sure, I don't mind
St. George:
What do you do for a living?
Knave:
I'm a knave
St. George:
Didn't I pick you up on a 903 last year for stealing tarts?
Knave:
Yeah
So what?
Do you wanna make a federal case out of it??
St. George:
No, Sir
We heard there was a dragon operating in this neighborhood
We just want to know if you've seen him
Knave:
Sure, I seen him
St. George:
Mmm-hmm
Could you describe him for me?
Knave:
What's to describe?
You see one dragon, you seen 'em all
St. George:
Would you try to remember, Sir?
Just for the record
We just want to get the facts, Sir!
Knave:
Well, he was, you know, he had orange polka dots . . .
St. George:
Yes, Sir
Knave:
Purple feet, breathing fire and smoke . . .
St. George:
Mmm-hmm
Knave:
And one big bloodshot eye right in the middle of his forehead and, uh, like that
St. George:
Notice anything unusual about him?
Knave:
No, he's just your run-of-the-mill dragon, you know
St. George:
Mmm-hmm
Yes, Sir
You can go now
Knave:
Hey, by the way, how you gonna catch him?
St. George:
I thought you'd never ask
A Dragonet
3:05 p.m.
I was riding back into the courtyard to make my report to the lab
Then it happened
It was the dragon
Dragon:
Hey!
I'm the fire-breathin' Dragon!
You must be St. George, right?
St. George:
Yes, Sir
Dragon:
I can see you got one of them new .45 caliber swords
St. George:
That's about the size of it
Dragon:
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!!!
You slay me!!
St. George:
That's what I wanted to talk to you about
Dragon:
What do you mean?
St. George:
I'm taking you in on a 502
You figure it out
Dragon:
What's the charge?
St. George:
Devouring maidens out of season
Dragon:
Out of season?!?
You'll never pin that rap on me!!
Do you hear me, cop?!?!
St. George:
Yeah, I hear you
I got you on a 412 too
Dragon:
A 412!!!
What's a 412?!?!?
St. George:
Over-acting
Let's go
Narrator:
On September the 5th, the Dragon was tried and convicted
His fire was put out and his maiden-devouring license revoked
Maiden devouring out of season is punishable by a term of not less than 50 or more than 300 years

Here In The City
Here In The City
Performer(s): Janis Ian
You don't see many shadows here in the city
Only picturesque windows, all covered and dirty
Black and grey that once was new
Yesterday that once was you
No I can't find my shadow in the city
We got canyons of smoke and steel-blue horizons
Our castles explode as the city lays dying
History that once was new
Memories that once were true
No I can't find my shadow in the city
And oh, for the green green hills of home
For the hills I used to roam
so many years ago
Oh, for the love that's now grown cold
For the love that's now grown old
as the hills I used to know
You don't find many lovers here in the jungle
Only magazine covers designed for the humble
Cold caress that burns and slides
Emptiness that's hard to hide
Used to be I knew my mind
but I can't find my shadow in the city

If My World Stopped Turning
If My World Stopped Turning
Composer(s): Bryan McFadden - Jonathan Shorten
First performance by: Chris Doran - 2004
I can see my future
When I'm looking in your eyes
And I can sense security
Just by you bein' in my life
I hear a voice inside my head
Say you're an angel in disguise
Without you I feel hopeless
Without you I'm deprived
I wish I could describe it
All the love I feel inside
Maybe I can find the words
That will make you realise
My life seems near perfect
When I've got you in my arms
'Cause that's when I feel wholesome
That's when I'm with you
And if my world stopped turning in the morning
And if God should take this all away
If it all should stop without a warning
Then I would still stand tall
'Cause behind it all
You're the one who's made a winner out of me
All day I long to touch you
And it comes as a surprise
That we spent so long apart
Even more than I survived
Now, if I'm speaking frankly
There's only one thing I can say
It's that I'm fallin' for you, baby
Fallin' further every day
And if my world stopped turning in the morning
And if God should take this all away
If it all should stop without a warning
Then I would still stand tall
'Cause behind it all
You're the one who's made a winner out of me
(If my world stopped) turning in the morning
In the morning
(And if God) should take this all away
If it all should stop without a warning
Then I would still stand tall
'Cause behind it all
You're the one who's made a winner out of me

St. Elmo's Fire
St. Elmo's Fire
Composer(s): Brian Eno
First release by: Brian Eno - 1975
Brown Eyes and I were tired
We had walked and we had scrambled
Through the moors and through the briars
Through the endless blue meanders
In the blue August moon
In the cool August moon
Over the nights and through the fires
We went surging down the wires
Through the towns and on the highways
Through the storms in all their thundering
In the blue August moon
In the cool August moon
Well we rested in a desert
Where the bones were white as teeth, sir
And we saw St. Elmo's Fire
Splitting ions in the ether
In the blue August moon
In the cool August moon

Here I Go Again
Composer(s): Mort Shuman; Clive Westlake
Performer(s): The Hollies
Here I go again
Watch it now 'cause
here I go again
I've been hurt so much before
I told myself
yes I did
no more, no more won't get hurt any more
There I was by myself
doing all right
until I saw you last night
And then I knew that
here I go again
I cannot help it
Here I go again
Making the same mistakes
heading for more heartaches
What can I do when there's nothing I can do?
I looked in your eyes and I knew that I was blue
What 's the use?
I'll just give in
Try as I may
and I do
I'll never win, never win, baby I'll never win
Now, you're here, so close to me
I can't resist you
and I knew when I kissed you
I'm gonna sing now
here I go again
Watch it now 'cause
here I go again
Falling in love, in love
Falling in love, in love
Falling in love, in love
Falling in love
