To Say I Love You


To Say I Love You
Composer(s): Harvey Averne - Raphael Pagan
Performer(s): Ralfi Pagan
To say I love you
It's a beautiful sound
Oh, the heavens must have sent you
And my love has been found
When you're near me
I feel so much joy
But when you're gone
I'm a sad and lonely boy
I think of you
When we're apart
And there is so much sadness in my heart
To say I love is all that I can do
Please say you love me
And oh, oh, don't say no
To say I love you
Is all that I can do
I think of you when we're apart
And there is so much sadness in my heart
To say I love you is all that I can do
Please say you love me
And oh, oh, don't say no
To say I love you is all that I can do
To say I love you is all that I can say
But to show you how much I love you
That's something I try to do each and every day
When you're in my arms, my body comes to life
And when we love, oh when we love
It's so nice
You know how much I love you, don't you honey
Without you, life is barely night and day
All work and no play
But that ain't the way
No it isn't
I said no it isn't, little girl
Oh little girl I love you
I love you 'cause you're fine

I Don't Like Mondays


I Don't Like Mondays
Composer(s): Bob Geldof
First release by: The Boomtown Rats - 1979
Covered by multiple other artists
The silicon chip inside her head
Gets switched to overload
And nobody's gonna go to school today
She's gonna make them stay at home
And daddy doesn't understand it
He always said she was good as gold
And he can see no reason
Cos there are no reasons
What reasons do you need to be shown
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
I want to shoot
The whole day down
The telex machine is kept so clean
And it types to a waiting world
And Mother feels so shocked
Father's world is rocked
And their thoughts turn to
Their own little girl
Sweet 16 ain't that peachy keen
No it ain't so neat to admit defeat
They can see no reasons
Cos there are no reasons
What reasons do you need oh oh oh oh
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
I want to shoot
The whole day down, down, down
Shoot it all down
And now the playing's stopped in the playground now
She wants to play with her toys awhile
And school's out early and soon we'll be learning
And the lesson today is how to die
And then the bullhorn crackles
And the captain tackles
With the problems and the how's and why's
And he can see no reasons
Cos there are no reasons
What reason do you need to die, die, oh oh oh
And the silicon chip inside her head
Gets switched to overload
And nobody's gonna go to school today
She's gonna make them stay at home
And daddy doesn't understand it
He always said she was good as gold
And he can see no reasons
Cos there are no reasons
What reason do you need to be shown
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why
I don't like, I don't like
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why
I don't like, I don't like
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
I want to shoot
The whole day down

Jennifer Eccles
Composer(s): Allan Clarke; Graham Nash
Performer(s): The Hollies; Eels
White chalk written on red brick
our love told in a heart
It's there, drawn in the playground
love, kiss, hate or adore
I love Jennifer Eccles
I know that she loves me
I love Jennifer Eccles
I know that she loves me
La la, la la la la la
la la, la la la la
La la, la la la la la
la la, la la la la
I used to carry her satchels
she used to walk by my side
But when we got to her doorstep
her dad wouldn't let me inside
One Monday morning
found out I'd made the grade
Started me thinkin'
"Have she done the same?"
La la, la la la la la
la la, la la la la
La la, la la la la la
la la, la la la la
One Monday morning
found out I'd made the grade
Started me thinkin'
"Have she done the same?"
I hope Jennifer Eccles
is goin' to follow me there
Our love is bound to continue
love, kiss, hate or adore
I love Jennifer Eccles
I know that she loves me
I love Jennifer Eccles
I know that she loves me
La la, la la la la la

Jennie, Jennie (Swedish Version)


Jennie, Jennie
Composer(s): Lars Berghagen
Performer(s): Lars Berghagen
Jag vet att du sitter i kväll
På ditt rum med ett brev i din hand
Du vill blunda och drömma
Men kan inte glömma att allt känns så hopplöst ibland
Du spelar en skiva och minns
Några bilden du har i ett skrin
Jag vet att du gråter kanske aldrig förlåter
Att tiden förändrat melodin
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie
Världen väntar på ditt svar
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie
Livet har så mycket kvar att ge dig
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie
Melodin bestämmer du
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie
Lev ditt liv och lev det nu
Du vill vända tillbaka i kväll
Till den värld du levt i förut
Men din dagbok i handen
Är som tecken i sanden
Som havet nästan suddat ut
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie.....
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie.....
Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie.....

To Morrow


To Morrow
Composer(s): Bob Gibson
Performer(s): Bob Gibson; The Kingson Trio
I started on a journey, about a year ago
To a little town called Morrow I was going from Glasgow
I've never been much of a traveller, so I really didn't know
That Morrow was the hardest place I'd ever try to go!
I went down to the station for my ticket and applied
For tips regarding Morrow not expecting to be guyed (means fooled)
Said I," I'd like to go to Morrow and return
No later than tomorrow, for I haven't time to burn"
Said he to me, "now let me see if I have heard you right
You'd like to go to Morrow and return tomorrow night"
"You should have gone to Morrow yesterday and back today
For the train today to Morrow is a mile upon its way...
"If you had gone to Morrow yesterday now don't you see
You could have gone to Morrow and returned today at three
For the train today to Morrow, if the schedule is right
Today it goes to Morrow and returns tomorrow night
Said I," My friend, it seems to me you're talking through your hat
There is a town called Morrow on the line, now tell me that!"
"There is," said he, "but take from me a quiet little tip
To go from here to Morrow is a fourteen hour trip
"The train today to Morrow leaves today at 8:35
At half-past ten tomorrow is the time it should arrive
So if from here to Morrow is a fourteen hour jump
Can you get anywhere tomorrow and get back today, you chump?"
"Said I," I'd like to go to Morrow, so can I go today
And get to Morrow by tonight if there is no delay?"
"Well, well", said he to me, "and I've got no more to say
Can you get anywhere tomorrow and get back again today?"
Said I,"I guess you know it all, but kindly let me say
How can I get to Morrow if I leave this town today?"
Said he,"You cannot get to Morrow anymore today
For the train that goes to Morrow is a mile upon its way!"
I was so disappointed I was mad enough to swear
The train had gone to Morrow and it left me standing there
The man was right in tellin' me that I was a howlin' jay
I could not go to Morrow, so I guess in town I'll stay

I Don't Know Where I'm Going But I'm On My Way


I Don't Know Where I'm Going But I'm On My Way
Composer(s): George Fairman
Performer(s): Peerless Quartet
Goodbye everybody I'm off to fight the foe
Uncle Sammy is calling me so I must go
Gee I'm feeling fine don't you wish that you were me?
For I'm sailing tomorrow over the deep blue sea
Take a look at me I'm a Yankee thro' and thro'
I was born on July the Fourth in ninety two
And I'll march away with a feather in my hat
For I'm joining the army what do you think of that?
And I don't know where I'm going but I'm on my way
For I belong to the regulars I'm proud to say
And I'll do my duty-uty night or day
I don't know where I'm going but I'm on my way

The Archers' Song
The Archers' Song
Composer(s): Rudolf Friml - Brian Hooker
Performer(s): Charles Carver
There's a crook with a look like a book full of naughtiness
(Hi-ho-ho, the gallows tree)
With his boot full of loot and his heart full of haughtiness
(Hi-ho-ho and up goes he)
By day we'll take him tenderly by the door so
(By the torso)
Lead him straightway to the gallows tree
(And the Lord assoil his soul)
Whooagh! The boys have lost a brother
Whooagh! The Devil's caught another
There let him hang for a warning
Four and twenty crows (Arrhh!)
Pecking at his nose
Will he find repose, God knows!
There's a wench on a bench with a French kind of flossiness
(Hi-ho-ho, the gallows tree)
With a sly sort of eye and the sleek sort of sauciness
(Hi-ho-ho and up goes she)
Some dark night we'll catch her by the slack of her garter
(Hah, for a starter)
And march her off and never bring her back
(And the Lord assoil her soul)
Whooagh! There goes your little sister
Whooagh! Her brother never missed her
There let her hang for a warning
Four and twenty cats (Meaouw!)
Singing sharps and flats (Meaouw!)
Where will she be then, Amen!

I Don't Know Where I Stand


I Don't Know Where I Stand
Composer(s): Joni Mitchell
First release by: Fairport Convention - 1968
Covered by multiple other artists
Funny day, looking for laughter and finding it there
Sunny day, braiding wild flowers and leaves in my hair
Picked up a pencil and wrote "I love you" in my finest hand
Wanted to send it, but I don't know where I stand
Telephone, even the sound of your voice is still new
All alone in California and talking to you
And feeling too foolish and strange to say the words that I had planned
I guess it's too early, 'cause I don't know where I stand
Crickets call, courting their ladies in star-dappled green
Thickets tall, until the morning comes up like a dream
All muted and misty, so drowsy now I'll take what sleep I can
I know that I miss you, but I don't know where I stand
I know that I miss you, but I don't know where I stand

J'en suis fou
Moi j'en suis fou

Oh, j'en suis fou
Tous les jaloux
Me crient casse-cou
Mais que voulez-vous
Cette fille
J'en suis fou
Oh, j'en suis fou
Même si son coeur
N'est pas fidèle
Tout mon bonheur
Est auprès d'elle
Et malgré tout
Moi que voulez-vous
Je lui pardonne tout
Cette fille
Oh, j'en suis fou
Oh, j'en suis fou
Que voulez-vous
Ses yeux sont si doux
Que moi malgré tout
Cette fille
Oh, j'en suis fou
Oh, j'en suis fou ...

To Me


To Me
Composer(s): Don George - Allie Wrubel
To me, you’re the rose of a rosary
The rise of a rising sea
The glow of a star
To me, you’re the core of a coral sky
The lull of a lullaby
You know that you are
To you, I’m a mask in a masquerade
One of the unfinished symphonies
That’s never been played
Still, to me, you’re the rose of a rosary
You are and you’ll always be
So precious to me

I Don't Know How To Love Him


I Don't Know How To Love Him
Composer(s): Andrew Lloyd Webber; Tim Rice
First release by: Yvonne Elliman - 1970
Covered by multiple other artists
I don't know how to love him
What to do, how to move him
I've been changed, yes really changed
In these past few days, when I've seen myself
I seem like someone else
I don't know how to take this
I don't see why he moves me
He's a man. He's just a man
And I've had so many men before
In very many ways
He's just one more
Should I bring him down?
Should I scream and shout?
Should I speak of love
Let my feelings out?
I never thought I'd come to this
What's it all about?
Don't you think it's rather funny
I should be in this position
I'm the one who's always been
So calm, so cool, no lover's fool
Running every show
He scares me so
I never thought I'd come to this
What's it all about?
Yet, if he said he loved me
I'd be lost
I'd be frightened
I couldn't cope, just couldn't cope
I'd turn my head
I'd back away
I wouldn't want to know
He scares me so
I want him so
I love him so

J'en Déduis Que Je T'aime
Composer(s): Charles Aznavour
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour - 1959
Versions In Other Languages:
1964 - Ne Deduco Che T'amo (Charles Aznavour)
1966 - Love At Last You Have Found Me (Liza Minnelli)
Par la peur de te perdre et de ne plus te voir
Par ce monde insensé qui grouille dans ma tête
Par ces nuits sans sommeil où la folie me guette
Quand le doute m'effleure et tend mon cœur de noir
J'en déduis que je t'aime
J'en déduis que je t'aime
Par le temps que je prends pour ne penser qu'à toi
Par mes rêves de jour où tu règnes en idole
Par ton corps désiré de mon corps qui s'affole
Et l'angoisse à l'idée que tu te joues de moi
J'en déduis que je t'aime
J'en déduis que je t'aime
Par le froid qui m'étreint lorsque je t'aperçois
Par mon souffle coupé, par mon sang qui se glace
Par la désolation qui réduit mon espace
Et le mal que souvent tu me fais malgré toi
Par la contradiction de ma tête et mon cœur
Par mes vingt ans perdus qu'en toi je réalise
Par tes regards lointains qui parfois me suffisent
Et me font espérer en quelques jours meilleurs
J'en déduis que je t'aime
J'en déduis que je t'aime
Par l'idée que la fin pourrait être un début
Par mes joies éventrées par ton indifférence
Par tous les mots d'amour qui restent en souffrance
Puisque de te les dire est pour moi défendu
J'en déduis que je t'aime
J'en déduis mon amour

Just one day without you is one day too many
You don't miss your water till you don't have any
I try to live like you said I should
I wanta call you if only I could
To say I'm sorry
That's how I feel when you're not home
I keep your picture right by my bed
Your sweet lovin' smile burns in my head
It just got invaded, I feel so cold
I just wanta love you, baby
Before I, before I get too old to say I'm sorry
That's how I feel when you're not home
But I'll be strong and I'll carry on
And I'll keep your good love and I won't do wrong
Today is down, six more months to go
I'll try to make it, but I, I just don't know
And I'm sorry
But that's how I feel, ummm-ummm, when you're not home
That's how I feel, when you're not home
That's how I feel, yeah, when you're not home
'Cause that's how I feel, that's how I feel, baby
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagggggggggggghhhhhhhhhh!
That's how I feel on a cold and rainy night
That's how I feel when I need my baby to hold me tight
Ooh baby, I miss you when you're not so far away from me, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby!

First release by: Peggy Lee - 1946
Covered by multiple other artists
I know a little bit about a lot o' things
But I don't know enough about you
Just when I think you're mine
You try a different line
And baby, what can I do?
I read the latest news
No buttons on my shoes
But baby, I'm confused about you
You get me in a spin
Oh what a stew I'm in
'Cause I don't know enough about you
Jack of all trades, master of none
And isn't it a shame
I'm so sure that you'd be good for me
If you'd only play my game!
You know I went to school
And I'm nobody's fool
That is to say until I met you!
I know a little bit about a lot o' things
But I don't know enough about you
You know I went to school
And I'm nobody's fool
That is to say until I met you!
I know a little bit about a lot o' things
But I don't know enough about you
I know a little bit about biology
And a little more about psychology
I'm a little gem in geology
But I don't know enough about you
I guess Id better get out the encyclopedia
And fresh up on from "shmer" to "shmoo", mmmm
'Cause I don't know enough about you
