Too Soon to Tell
Too Soon to Tell
Performer(s): Bonnie Raitt
So now there's somebody new
These dreams I've been dreaming
Have all fallen through
You say I'll be fine
It only takes time
Someday
That may be true
But it's too soon to tell
Ah, it's too soon to say
Maybe some day I'll be able
To wish you well
But right now it's just
Too soon to tell
It's all for the best
So you say
You never intended
To hurt me this way
You want to hear
I won't drown in my tears
Well, baby the best that I can say
Is it's too soon to tell
Ah, it's too soon to say
Maybe some day I'll be able
To wish you well
But right now
It's just too soon to tell
Well right now
It's just too soon to tell
Ooh...
Too soon to tell.....

I Know A Heartache When I See One
I Know A Heartache When I See One
Composer(s): Charlie Black; Rory Michael Bourke; Kerry Chater
Performer(s): Jennifer Warnes
and multiple other artists
Look at who the wind's
Blowin’ up the road
Shining like a northern star
Actin’ like the answers
To all my prayers
But, baby, I know what you really are
So don’t you knock on my door
I won’t be home anymore
You can find me out walking in the sun
Oh, you hide it so well
It isn’t easy to tell
But I know a heartache
When I see one
There was a time
I was a true believer
Your love was the only way
Well you can save all your sweet talkin’
For some other fool
Only a fool would believe what you say
So don’t you knock on my door
I won’t be home anymore
You can find me out walking in the sun
Oh, you hide it so well
It isn’t easy to tell
But I know a heartache
When I see one
Time is a teacher
Oh, and it’s taught me well
The loser is the one who cries
And when you’ve cried like a baby
And you’ve hurt like hell
You know the devil
By the look in his eyes
So don’t you knock on my door
I won’t be home anymore
You can find me out walking in the sun
Oh, you hide it so well
It isn’t easy to tell
But I know a heartache
When I see one
So don’t you knock on my door
I won’t be home anymore
You can find me out walking in the sun
Oh, you hide it so well
It isn’t easy to tell
But I know a heartache
When I see one
I know a heartache when I see one

July Morning
July Morning
Composer(s): David Byron; Ken Hensley
Performer(s): Uriah Heep;
Ken Hensley; Alex Rudi Pell
There I was on a July morning
Looking for love
With the strength
Of a new day dawning
And the beautiful sun
At the sound
Of the first bird singing
I was leaving for home
With the storm
And the night behind me
And a road of my own
With the day came the resolution
I'll be looking for you
La la la la
I was looking for love
In the strangest places
Wasn't a stone
That I left unturned
Must have tried more
Than a thousand faces
But not one was aware
Of the fire that burned
In my heart, in my mind, in my soul
La la la la
There I was on a July morning
I was looking for love
With the strength
Of a new day dawning
And the beautiful sun
And at the sound
Of the first bird singing
I was leaving for home
With the storm
And the night behind me
Yeah, and a road of my own

Too Shy To Say
Composer(s): Stevie Wonder
First release: Stevie Wonder - 1974
Covered by multiple other artists
You make me smile
You make me sing
You make me feel good everything
You bring me up
When I've been down
This only happens when you're around
And I can't go on this way...
With it stronger every day...
But being too shy to say
That I really love you...
I wanna fly
Away with you
Until there's nothing more for us to do
I wanna be
More than a friend
Until the end of an endless end
And I can't go on this way...
With it stronger every day...
But being too shy to say
That I really love you...
And I can't go on this way...
Feelin' it stronger every day...
But being too shy to say
That I really love you
Ohh... ooh...
I... do...

I Know A Dream When I See One
Composer(s): Jerry Livingston; Mack David
Performer(s): Dean Martin
I know a dream when I see one
For I'm a dreamer you know
I know a dream when I hold one
Do you mind if I never let you go
I'm so afraid if I kiss you
You'll vanish as dreams always do
But make no mistake although I'm wide awake
I know a dream when I see one
And I see one when I look at you
But make no mistake although I'm wide awake
I know a dream when I see one
And I see one when I look at you

July Away
July Away
Composer(s): Michael Bacon
Performer(s): The Bacon Brothers
Sweet July's not welcomed here
Here the trees are green all year
They don't need her summer's glow
In this land of ice and snow
Lakes of steel frozen flat
July comes and changes that
Smashing with her warm sun rays
Tilts the docks and heaves the highways
Chorus
July you're a young girl
July it's an old world
My heart races when I see you nearing
But I know I'll soon be hearing
The sad songs the mad songs
The everything is bad songs
Won't you fly away
July away
I once had a girl so fair
With eyes of blue and golden hair
Don't know why she let me go
To this land of ice and snow
Chorus

Julius Caesar
Julius Caesar
Composer(s): Nico
Performer(s): Nico
Amidst water lily fields white and green
Grows a tree
And from the tree hang apples
Not for you to eat.
In a way it matters more
Than it did before
To see the East voyaging through
True hearts of dunes
Mirth
Birth
Reverie
There in harmony
Somersault caravans of fools
As he passes for reply
To sing his songs again.
He sways to kiss the horizontal ground
And from the ground a dove rises
And as a mark of honor
A mask is left behind
Mirth
Birth
Reverie
There in harmony
To gentle form and noble force
Calm and vast his voice cascades
From this gentle stage
Calm and vast the city lies
On a horizontal ground
Kind and calm Julius lies
For Octavian to prevail
Mirth
Birth
Reverie
In harmony
Traverses the peninsula
Aeolus with his whisperwinds to strike
With his gentle kisses the righteous
And wise and doom ambitious praise
With his will his will and order
Mirth
Birth
Reverie
Amidst water lily fields white and green
Grows a tree
And from the tree hang apples
Not for you to eat
Beneath the heaving sea
Where statues and pillars and stone altars rest for all these
Aching bones to guide us far from energy
Mirth
Birth
Reverie

Too Poor To Die
Too Poor To Die
Performer(s): Louisiana Red & Little Victor'S Juke Joint
Last night I had a dream
I dream I died
The undertaker came
To carry me for the ride
I couldn't afford a coffin
Embalmin' kinda high
I jumped off my death bed
'Cause I too poor to die
I's in trouble
And I'll tell you the reason why
I'm just too poor people
I'm too poor to go lay down and die
I dream at the cemetery
I couldn't afford enough
To pay the gravediggers
To cover me up
It cost a lot of money
'Cause they was union men
I guess before I die
I better think again
I'm in trouble
And I'll tell you the reason why
I'm just too poor people
I'm too poor to go lay down and die
Dream I met the devil
He is waitin' at the gate
Say "come on in Red
You ain't a minute late"
Said he lead me to his kingdom
Lead me by my arm
But he wouldn't move my body
Less I grease his palm
I's in trouble
And I'll tell you the reason why
I'm just too poor people
I'm too poor to go lay down and die

I Know (I Know)
I Know (I Know)
Composer(s): John Lennon
Performer(s): John Lennon
The years have passed so quickly
One thing I've understood
I am only learning
To tell the trees from wood
I know what's coming down
And I know where it's coming from
And I know and I'm sorry (yes I am)
But I never could speak my mind
And I know just how you feel
And I know now what I have done
And I know and I'm guilty
But I never could speak my mind
I know what I was missing
But now my eyes can see
I put myself in your place
As you did for me
Today I love you more than yesterday
Right now I love you more right now
Now I know what's coming down
I can feel where it's coming from
And I know it's getting better all the time
As we share in each other's minds

There was a love, I knew before
She broke my heart, left me unsure
Juliet
Don't forget, the promise you made
I need never be afraid
Things you do, reminiscent of you
Juliet
When we met, you gave me a sweet memory
Things you do, reminiscent of you
There was a love, I knew before
She broke my heart, left me unsure
Juliet
Don't you, no don't you let
Our love go astray in this way
Julie, Julie
Julie, Julie, oh my Juliet
Julie, Julie, oh my Juliet

Too Pooped To Pop
Too Pooped To Pop
Composer(s): Benny Davis - Chuck Berry
Performer(s): Chuck Berry
Casey is an old man who wants to be a teen
He goes to all the dances and they call him cha-cha king
He cha-chas when the band is playin' rock and roll
He tries to keep in time but the beat leaves him cold
Because he's too pooped to pop, he's too old to skoal
His hips gettin' weaker when he try to do the stroll
And every time his feet get to goin' one way
Here come a new dance and it's goin' astray
Chicks told Casey, you better move man
This is a-only a one night stand
Casey wasn't in time but he's dancin' awhile
'Til a cramp caught his leg and he had to change his style
Because he's too pooped to pop, he's too old to skoal
His hips gettin' weaker when he try to do the stroll
And every time his feet get to goin' one way
Here come a new dance and he's gone astray
Because he's too pooped to pop, he's too old to skoal
His hips gettin' weaker when he try to do the stroll
And every time his feet get to goin' one way
Here come a new dance and he's gone astray
Casey finally learned to do the hoochie koo
This might have been fine back in '22
Now, I'm gonna give you fellows just a little tip
If you wanna keep your girl you better get hip
Or, you'll be too pooped to pop, too old to skoal
Your hips'll get weak when you try to do the stroll
And every time your feet gettin' to goin'one way
Here comes a new dance you'll be left to stray

Julien (Julien Clerc)
Julien
Composer(s): Maurice Valley; Julien Clerc
Performer(s): Julien Clerc
Tiens, vous m'avez appelé Julien
Vous semblez me connaître bien
Mais votre visage ne me dit rien
Tiens, vous prétendez que l'on s'est aimés
Que je n'ai pas pu oublier
Tout ce qui s'était passé
{Refrain:}
Tiens, vous vous souvenez très bien
Comme d'un réve qui revient
D'un passé qui est déjà loin
Moi, je ne me souviens de rien
Votre histoire ne me dit rien
Cessez de pleurer en vain
Tiens, j'aimais donc beaucoup vos très charmantes soirées
Passées à boire du thé
Tiens, je disais être heureux
Quand nous allions tous les deux
Voir les matchs de cricket
{Refrain}
Tiens, vous m'avez recherché partout
Vous avez fouillé tout le pays
De Liverpool à Brighton
Tiens, vous m'avez aperçu en vain
Par un après-midi d'automne
Je prenais l'avion pour Paris
Non, vous avez dû
Vous tromper avec un autre, c'est certain
Là-bas, jamais je ne suis allé
Moi, je ne me souviens de rien
Votre histoire ne me dit rien
Cessez de pleurer en vain

Too Old To Rock 'N Roll: Too Young to Die!
Too Old To Rock 'N Roll: Too Young to Die!
Composer(s): Ian Anderson
Performer(s): Jethro Tull
The old rocker wore his hair too long
Wore his trouser cuffs too tight
Unfashionable to the end
Drank his ale too light
Death's head belt buckle, yesterday's dreams
The transport cafe prophet of doom
Ringing no change in his double-sewn seams
In his post-war-baby gloom
Now he's too old to Rock'n'Roll, but he's too young to die
He once owned a Harley Davidson
And a Triumph Bonneville
Counted his friends in burned-out spark plugs
And prays that he always will
But he's the last of the blue blood greaser boys
All of his mates are doing time
Married with three kids up by the ring road
Sold their souls straight down the line
And some of them own little sports cars
And meet at the tennis club do's
For drinks on a Sunday, work on Monday
They've thrown away their blue suede shoes
Now they're too old to Rock'n'Roll and they're too young to die
So the old Rocker gets out his bike
To make a ton before he takes his leave
Up on the A1 by Scotch Corner
Just like it used to be
And as he flies, tears in his eyes
His wind-whipped words echo the final take
And he hits the trunk road doing around 120
With no room left to brake
And he was too old to Rock'n'Roll, but he was too young to die
No, you're never too old to Rock'n'Roll if you're too young to die

I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me)
I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me)
Composer(s): Simon Crispin Climie; Dennis W. Morgan
First release by: Aretha Franklin & George Michael - 1986
Covered by multiple other artists
Like a warrior that fights
And wins the battle
I know the taste of victory
Though i went through some nights
Consumed by the shadows
And was crippled emotionally
Somehow I made it through the heartace
I escaped
I found my way out of the darkness, kept my faith
Kept my faith
And the river was deep I didn't falter
When the mountain was high
I still believed
When the valley was low
It didn't stop me
I knew you were waiting
Knew you were waiting for me
With and endless desire
I kept on searching
Sure in time our eyes would meet
And like the bridge is on fire
The hurt is over
One touch and you set me free
I don't regret a single moment
Looking back, when I think of all those disappointments
I just laugh, I just laugh
And the river was deep I didn't falter
When the mountain was high
I still believed
When the valley was low
It didn't stop me
I knew you were waiting
Knew you were waiting for me
So we were drawn together through destiny
I know this love we share was meant to be

Julien
Composer(s): Sergio Bardotti; Sergio Endrigo
Performer(s): Dalida
Julien arrête
Ce soir j'ai envie de parler
Et non de faire la fête
J'ai tant de choses dans la tête
Que tu ne comprends pas
Julien écoute
Avant toi j'ai brûlé ma vie
Au grand feu de l'indifférence
Tant d'hommes ont traversé mes nuits
Ne me laissant qu'un grand silence
En attendant la délivrance
Pour éviter les habitudes
Je m'habillais de solitude
Jusqu'à toi
Julien tendresse, Julien carresse
Julien rêveur, Julien moqueur
Qui ne tient jamais ses promesses
Julien ma joie et mon enfer
Julien ma paix, Julien ma guerre
Julien mon paradis perdu
Julien à moi
Julien sauvage, Julien voyage
Julien s'en va, Julien revient
Tenant ma vie entre ses mains
Julien ma soif, Julien ma faim
Ma maison mon pain et mon vin
Julien ma seule raison de vivre
Julien à moi
Julien écoute
J'ai voulu faire de notre amour
Un monde qui te ressemble
J'avais souvent perdu sans toi
Je voulais tant qu'on gagne ensemble
Mais quand le manège cesse de tourner
Il faut savoir descendre
Sans larme et sans attendre
Et s'en aller
Julien tendresse, Julien carresse
Julien rêveur, Julien moqueur
Qui ne tient jamais ses promesses
Julien ma joie et mon enfer
Julien ma paix, Julien ma guerre
Julien mon paradis perdu
Julien à moi
Julien qui casse, Julien qui lasse
Julien qui part et qui s'en fou
Julien qui revient à genoux
Julien ma honte, Julien ma gloire
Julien ma défaite, ma victoire
Julien trop tard
Julien ce soir tout est fini
Julien tristesse, Julien détresse
Julien trop de fois revenu
Et trop de fois tu m'as déçu
Julien ma soif, Julien ma faim
Ma maison mon pain et mon vin
Julien trop tard, Julien ce soir
Tout est fini
Julien c'est la dernière fois
Non je ne suis pas tout pour toi
Julien ne pleure pas comme ça
Julien reviens
