Je Croyais


Je Croyais
English Title: Yesterday
Composer(s): John Lennon; Paul McCartney;
Hugues Aufray; Georges Aber
Performer(s): Hugues Aufray



Je croyais
Qu'il ne pouvait plus rien m'arriver
Mais soudain que s'est-il passé
Autour de moi tout a changé

Brusquement
Je ne suis plus l'homme que j'étais
Et je ne sais plus où je vais
Au fond de moi tout se défait

La nuit en venant m’a laissé désemparé
En moi je le sais quelque chose s’est brisé

Je croyais
Que j’étais maître de mon destin
Mais la vie m’échappe des mains
Et je ne suis plus sûr de rien

La nuit en venant m’a laissé désemparé
En moi je le sais quelque chose s’est brisé

Je croyais
La vie un jeu facile à jouer
Mais tout est à recommencer
Autour de moi tout est changé

Thoughts On A Rainy Afternoon


Thoughts On A Rainy Afternoon
Composer(s): Bruce Cockburn
Performer(s): Bruce Cockburn



Rain rings trash can bells
and what do you know
my alley becomes a cathedral

eyes can be archways
to enter or leave by
vacuum's replaced by a crystal

o Jesus don't let Toronto take my song away

it's easy to love if
you let yourself love it
but like a moth's wing it's easily crushed

o Jesus don't let tomorrow take my love away

Sei que você chora
Porque chgou o fim
Mas digo chore por mim
Chore por mim
Eu chorei tanto por você
Sei que é tudo agora
Bem diferente emfim
Mas digo chore por mim
Chore por mim
Eu chorei tanto por você
Promessas mil vezes você repetiu
Pra que se jamais cumpriu
Saudade o meu coração já sentiu
Já sentiu a dor malvada
De querer e não ter nada
Sei que você chora
Por que chegou o fim
Mas digo chore por mim
Chore por mim
Eu chorei tanto por você

Je Crois Qu'Il Me Rend Fou


Je Crois Qu'Il Me Rend Fou
English Title: Such A Fool For You
Composer(s): Aber; Ike Turner; Tina Turner
Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday



Sais-tu ce qui est vrai, ouais
C'est mon amour pour toi
Je sais qu'il est vrai, ouais
Je crois bien qu'il se voit
Là dans mes yeux, là dans tes yeux
Il est écrit
Je crois qu'il me rend fou ton amour
Je crois qu'il me rend fou ton amour

J'ai envie de le crier tout mon amour pour toi
Et de le chanter jusqu'à perdre la voix
Il est en toi, il est en moi, il est écrit
Je crois qu'il me rend fou ton amour
Je crois qu'il me rend fou ton amour

Il est bien plus fort et peut résister
Les gens ont tort de le sous-estimer
Il est en nous à ce point qu'il nous rend heureux
Que vous ne pouvez l'imaginez
On est fou, je le sais mais c'est merveilleux
De ne plus penser qu'à nous aimer
On est fou, je le sais on est amoureux
Il suffit de nous regarder
Il est bien là et il se voit, il est écrit

Je crois qu'il me rend fou ton amour
Je crois qu'il me rend fou ton amour
Sais-tu qu'il est vrai, dis
Tout mon amour pour toi
Je veux le chanter
Jusqu'à perdre la voix
Je sais, je sais
Je suis fou, fou, fou, fou de ton amour
Je sais, je sais
Je suis fou, fou, fou, fou de ton amour ...

Thoughts And Words


Thoughts And Words
Composer(s): Chris Hillman
First release by: The Byrds - 1967



One day you came into my mind
and everything looked as though it was all mine
Loveliness to gaze upon
To feel your magic pulling me away

I thought I was on top of it all
Everyone else was so small
Then I knew what you wanted to do
I knew what you wanted to do

Often think of times when all your thoughts and words
come close to making me lose my mind
Moment now recalling all the time involving minutes
that we spent alone

I thought I was on top of it all
Everyone else was so small
Then I knew what you wanted to do
I knew what you wanted to do

One day you came into my mind
and everything looked as though it was all mine
Loveliness to gaze upon
To feel your magic pulling me away

I thought I was on top of it all
Everyone else was so small
Then I knew what you wanted to do
I knew what you wanted to do

Cry Like A Baby


Cry Like A Baby
Composer(s): Spooner Oldham; Dan Penn
First release by: The Box Tops - 1968
Covered by multiple other artists



When I think about the good love you gave me
I cry like a baby
Living without you is driving me crazy
I cry like a baby
Well, I know now that you're not a play thing
Not a toy, or a puppet on a string

As I look back on a love so sweet now
I cry like a baby
Every road is a lonely street
I cry like a baby
I know now that you're not a play thing
Not a toy, or a puppet on a string

Today we passed on a street
And you just walked on by
My heart just fell to my feet
And once again I began to cry

When I think about the good love you gave me
I cry like a baby
Living without you is driving me crazy
I cry like a baby

I know now that you're not a play thing
I cry like a baby
As I look back on a love so sweet now
I cry like a baby
Every road is a lonely street
I cry like a baby
My heart just fell to my feet, you know
I cried like a baby
You left the water running now
I cried like a baby

Je Crois Mon Coeur


Je Crois Mon Coeur ((Adapted from: A Taste Of Honey) (by Billy Dee Williams) - 1960)) ((Italian Version: In Paese È Festa (by I Giganti) - 1967)) Composer(s): Ric Marlow - Robert William Scott - Eddy Marnay Performer(s): Dalida - 1966



Ton cœur et mon cœur
Ne sont pas les mêmes
Ton cœur dit j'ai peur
Mon cœur dit je t'aime
Toi tu hésites
Et moi je crois mon cœur

Je sais
Où je vais
Quand je te regarde
C'est fou ce que j'ai
Des idées bavardes
Mais tu résistes
Et moi je crois mon cœur

Mon cœur bat plus vite
Mon cœur a raison
Dans mes bras je t'invite
Viens

Rien que
De t'aimer
Moi je vis un rêve
Mais toi on dirait
Qu'on t'a pris au piège
Que faut-il faire
Pour que tu crois mon cœur

Mon cœur bat plus vite
Mon cœur a raison
Car déjà toi tu changes
Hummmmm...

Tu crois en mon cœur
Et face au bonheur
Ton cœur dit je t'aime
Mon cœur dit je chante
L'amour nous emmène
L'amour nous invente
Et j'entends battre
Dans le printemps
De nos vingt ans
Ton cœur
Avec
Mon cœur

Thoughtless


Thoughtless
Composer(s): Carl Lampl - Buddy Kaye
Performer(s): Doris Day; Paula Kelly; Gordon MacRae



You are so thoughtless of me
You say things that make me so blue
You show it in so many little things you do
Or is that just your way of telling me we're through
You're much too much on my mind
I guess that you just shouldn't be
And maybe if I thought less of you, baby
You wouldn't be so thoughtless of me

(You are so thoughtless of me)
You say things that make me so blue
You show it in so many little things you do
(Or is that just your way of telling me we're through)
You're much too much on my mind
I guess that you just shouldn't be
(And maybe if I thought less of you), baby
You wouldn't be so thoughtless of me
(Thoughtless of me)

Cry Just A Little Bit


Cry Just A Little Bit
Composer(s): Bob Healie
First release by: Shakin' Stevens - 1983



Everytime you have to whisper goodbye
Well I cry just a little bit (cry just a little bit)
I know it's crazy and I don't know why
But I die just a little bit (die just a little bit)

I need to be the one that's by your side
You are the beat in my heart
My love for you is something I can't hide
And I cry just a little bit (cry just a little bit)
Cry just a little bit (cry just a little bit)

Every night before I'm fallin' asleep
Well I pray just a little bit (pray just a little bit)
I pray nobody wants your loving to keep
And you stray just a little bit (stray just a little bit)

Don't let temptation fill your heart with dreams
Don't let your mind run away (hu, hu, hu)
Forbidden love is never what it seems
And you cry just a little bit (cry just a little bit)
Cry just a little bit (little bit)

You're the light that brightens all of my days
And the sun shines above you
And I would die if someone took you away
'cause I love you, love you

(Cry just a little bit, cry just a little bit)

I want forever to be you and I
And that's the way it should be (hu, hu, hu)
I live for you and baby that is why
I cry just a little bit, (cry just a little bit)
Cry just a little bit

Everynight we have to whisper goodbye
I cry just a little bit (cry just a little bit)
I know it's crazy and I don't know why
But I die just a little bit (die just a little bit)

Cry, (cry), cry,
(cry just a little bit) cry just a little bit

Cry, (cry), cry,
(cry just a little bit) cry just a little bit

Cry, (cry), cry,
(cry just a little bit) cry just a little bit

Cry, (cry), cry,
(cry just a little bit) cry just a little bit

Cry, (cry), cry,
(cry just a little bit) cry just a little bit

Cry, (cry), cry,
(cry just a little bit) cry just a little bit...

Je Crois Entendre Encore
Italian Title: Mi Par D'Udir Ancora
Composer(s): Georges Bizet;
Michel Carré; Eugène Cormon
Performer(s): Alison Moyet



Je crois entendre encore
Caché sous les palmiers
Sa voix tendre et sonore
Comme un chant de ramiers
Oh nuit enchanteresse
Divin ravissement
Oh souvenir charmant
Folle ivresse, doux rêve!

Aux clartés des étoiles
Je crois encor la voir
Entr'ouvrir ses longs voiles
Aux vents tièdes du soir
Oh nuit enchanteresse
Divin ravissement
Oh souvenir charmant
Folle ivresse, doux rêve!

Charmant Souvenir!
Charmant Souvenir!

Though The Days Were Only Seven


Though The Days Were Only Seven
Composer(s): Ernest Tubb - Ruth Smith
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb



Angel’s sing sweet songs of love dear
Gates of Heaven stood ajar
All the seven days you loved me
God was looking from afar

And he knows my heart was honest
That it wanted only you
But you went away and left me
Now I’m lonely and I’m blue

Though The Days Were Only Seven
That your heart beat with my own
They were seven days of Heaven
Sweetest Heaven ever known

Ah do it pretty Billy

There were many things my darling
That I wanted you to know
But my soul was so excited
I forgot to tell you so

Please believe me for I love you
And I miss you dear sweetheart
Won’t you come back now I need you
Tell me that we’ll never part

Though The Days Were Only Seven
That your heart beat with my own
They were seven days of Heaven
Sweetest Heaven ever known

Cry For The Bad Man


Cry For The Bad Man
Composer(s): Allen Collins; Gary Rossington; Ronnie Van Zant
Performer(s): Lynyrd Skynyrd



Well he walks so tall to be so small
Never met a man who’s stranger
He lives his life for a dollar sign
And to deal with him is dangerous
He knocked me down but I’m on my feet
Now I’m so much wiser
I’d rather quit and go back home
Than to deal with the money miser
Let’s cry for this bad man
I sing a song for the bad man

Well, you treat me right baby, I’ll treat you right
That’s the way it’s supposed to be
I put my faith down in my friend
And he almost put an end to me
Well I work seven days a week
Eight when I am able
When you take money from me you take food from my mama’s table
Let’s cry for this bad man
I wrote a song for the bad man

Oh baby you know who you are

Let’s cry for this bad man
I wrote a song for the bad man way down in Georgia

Well, you treat me right baby, I’ll treat you right
That’s the way it’s supposed to be
I put my faith down in my friend
And he almost put an end to me
Well, when you take my money baby when you hurt my family
I go walkin’ through the swamps without no shoes
Step on a snake it scares you
Let’s cry for this bad man
I wrote a song for the bad man broh let’s cry for this bad man
I wrote a song for the bad man

Oh baby straight to you
He’s so bad, so bad

Je Crois En Nous


Je Crois En Nous Adapted from: I Believe In You - 1980 German Title: Ich Glaub An Dich Composer(s): Roger Cook; Sam Hogin; Pierre Delanoë; Claude Lemesle Performer(s): Nana Mouskouri - 1984



Je ne crois pas aux superstars
Au superman des super soirs
Je ne crois pas sans rajeunir
Qu'on soit obligé de vieillir
Que le plus grand soit le plus fort
Qu'une fille du sud perde le nord
Qu'il pleuve à l'est et pas alleurs
Que le premier soit le meilleur

Pourtant je crois encore à l'impossible amour
Je crois au dieu des fous, je crois surtout en nous

Je ne crois pas qu'on aille au ciel
Pour une messe ou un missel
Je ne crois pas qu'on soit damné
Pour une fleur qu'on a donné
Que mon destin soit tout écrit
Là-haut à l'encre de la nuit
Que l'on me note bien ou mal
Dans le grand livre des étoiles

Pourtant je crois encore à l'impossible amour
Je crois au dieu des fous, je crois surtout en nous

Le jour où je t'ai rencontré
J'ai rencontré ma vérité, et je t'aime
C'est ça, c'est ça croire en toi
Je ne crois pas que notre temps
Soit fantastique ou décadent
Que je ressemble à mon miroir
Que blanc c'est blanc et noir c'est noir
Que Tarzan vive à Hollywood
Avec Donald et Robin Hood
Je ne crois pas que l'An deux mille
Verra la fin des imbéciles

Pourtant je crois encore à l'impossible amour
Je crois au dieu des fous, je crois surtout en nous

Pourtant je crois encore à l'impossible amour
Je crois au dieu des fous, je crois surtout en nous

Thou Swell


Thou Swell
Composer(s): Richard Rodgers - Lorenz Hart
First performance/First release by: William Gaxton & Costance Carpenter - 1927/Broadway Nitelites - 1928
Covered by multiple other artists



Thou swell, thou witty, thou sweet, thou grand
Wouldst kiss me pretty? Wouldst hold my hand?
Both thine eyes are cute too, what they do to me
Hear me holler, I choose a sweet lollapaloosa in thee

I'd feel so rich in a hut for two
Two rooms and kitchen I'm sure would do
Give me just a plot of, not a lot of land
And thou swell, thou witty, thou grand

Cry Cry Cry
Composer(s): Thomas V. Performer(s): The Earls



(Cry, cry, cry)
(Cry, cry, cry)
(Cry, cry, cry)
(Cry, cry, cry)
(Cry)

I lost my own true love today
She packed her bags and went away
She ran to another guy
So, cry

Here come them tear drops
They're falling from my eyes
So, cry
(Cry, cry)
Come on, now
(Cry, cry, cry)
But there's nothing else to do
(Everybody cry)

It happens to every heart
Somebody tears it all apart
One day you gotta say goodbye
So, cry

Someone else is tasting
Lips that once were mine
So
(Cry, cry, cry)
Come on, now
(Cry, cry, cry)
I'm feeling sad and blue
(Everybody cry, cry)

(One, two, three, four, five)
Tears are falling from my eyes
(Six, seven, eight, nine, ten)
How I'll miss my lady friend

One day my crying will end
And I'll fall in love again
But till that day arrives
I gotta cry

If you cry too
Then maybe I won't feel so blue
So, cry
(Cry, cry)
Everybody
(Cry, cry, cry)

I want some pity from you
(Everbody cry, cry, cry)
Everbody cry now
Come on and cry now
Don't you know you gotta cry
(That you gotta cry)
Oh-ooh
Whoo-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Je Construis Des Murs Autour De Mes Rêves


Je Construis Des Murs Autour De Mes Rêves
Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday



Ne me demande pas mon nom
Qui je suis d'où je viens
Ne me poses pas de questions
Laisse-moi mon destin

Je suis comme le vent d'été
Je ne fais que passer
Tout ce que toi tu m'as donné
Je ne l'oublierai jamais

Moi, je construis des murs autour de mes rêves
Moi, je construis des murs autour de mes rêves

Un jour j'ai aimé une fille
Que l'on disait perdue
Le seul amour qu'elle connaissait
Se vendait dans la rue

Je l'ai gardé au fond de moi
Pure comme un ciel d'été
Pour que le temps n'y touche pas
Pour ne pas l'oublier

Moi, je construis des murs autour de mes rêves
Moi, je construis des murs autour de mes rêves

Moi, je construis des murs autour de mes rêves
Moi, je construis des murs autour de mes rêves

J'ai inventé tout un passé
Que je n'ai jamais eu
Plein de soleil et d'amitié
Pour moi l'enfant perdu

Toutes les joies qu'on m'a données
Je les ai agrandies
Même si je les ai inventées
Pour les mettre à l'abri

Moi, je construis des murs autour de mes rêves
Moi, je construis des murs autour de mes rêves

Moi, je construis des murs autour de mes rêves
Moi, je construis des murs autour de mes rêves...

Thou Shalt Not Steal


Thou Shalt Not Steal
Composer(s): John D. Loudermilk
Performer(s): Dick & Dee Dee; John D. Loudermilk; The Newbeats



Thou shalt not steal
Thou shalt not steal
That's what the Good Book says
Ya, ya, ya, ya
Thou shalt not steal
Thou shalt not steal
But somebody is a stealing
You away from me

I wonder if he really don't know
That he'll reap exactly what he sows
If he don't he'll find out someday
When somebody steals you from him

He'll be crying that thou shalt not steal
Thou shalt not steal
That's what the Good Book says
Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya

Cry Cry Cry (Johnny Cash)


Cry Cry Cry
Composer(s): Johnny Cash First release by: Johnny Cash and the Tennessee Two - 1955 Covered by multiple other artists



Everybody knows where you go when the sun goes down
I think you only live to see the lights of town
I wasted all my time when I would try, try, try
When the lights have lost their glow you're gonna cry, cry, cry

I lie awake at night and wait 'til you come in
You stay a little while and then you're gone again
Every question that I ask, I get a lie, lie, lie
For every lie you tell, you're gonna cry, cry, cry
You're gonna cry, cry, cry and you'll cry alone
When everyone's forgotten and you're left on your own
You're gonna cry, cry, cry

Soon your sugar-daddies will all be gone
You'll wake up some cold day and find you're alone
You call to me but I'm gonna tell you: "Bye, bye, bye"
When I turn around and walk away, you'll cry, cry, cry

When your fickle heart gets old, no one will care for you
You'll come back to me for a little love that's true
I'll tell you "no" and you're gonna ask me why, why, why?
When I remind you of all of this, you'll cry, cry, cry

You're gonna cry, cry, cry and you'll cry alone
When everyone's forgotten and you're left on your own
you're gonna cry, cry, cry

You're gonna cry, cry, cry and you'll want me then
it'll hurt when you think of th

Oh!
Sur les boulevards quand vient le soir
Je m'en vais de mon pas traînard
Rien dans les poches tout dans le regard
Pourquoi oh oui pourquoi

Je cherche une fille
Oh oh oh
Je cherche une fille
Yeah hé hé
Pour l'emmener
Faire un petit tour au ciné

Je ne peux pas faire de folie
Lui payer même une menthe à l'eau
Pour moi oh oui c'est trop

Je cherche une fille
Oh oh oh
Je cherche une fille
Yeah hé hé
Afin de faire
De faire l'amour buissonnière

Oh!
Si parfois vous en avez une
Envoyez la blonde ou la brune
Pourvu qu'elle ait un peu de fortune
Un peu oh oui de fortune

Je cherche une fille
Oh oh oh
Et je la veux très très jolie
Pour l'embrasser
Sans avoir à me forcer

Oh!
Ce n'est pas facile je vous le dit
Surtout quand on la veut ainsi
Riche et belle avec de l'esprit
Voilà oh oui pourquoi

Je cherche une fille
Oh oh oh
Je cherche une fille
Genre modèle
Et qui serait
Intelligent et fidèle

Je cherche une fille
Oh oh oh
Mais comme j'suis pas près de la trouver
Je vais garder

Those Were The Days (Cream)


Those Were The Days
Composer(s): Ginger Baker - Mike Taylor
Performer(s): Cream



When the city of Atlantis stood serene above the sea
Long time before our time when the world was free
Those were the days
Golden cymbals flying on ocarina sounds
Before wild Medusa's serpents gave birth to hell
Disguised as heaven
Those were the days, yes they were, those were the days
Those were their ways, miracles everywhere, are they now?
They're gone
Those were their ways, yes they were, those were their ways
Those were the days, yes they were, those were the days
Tie your painted shoes and dance, blue daylight in your hair
Overhead a noiseless eagle fans a flame
Wonder everywhere
Those were the days, yes they were, those were the days
Those were their ways, miracles everywhere, are they now?
They're gone
Those were their ways, yes they were, those were their ways
Those were the days, yes they were, those were the days
