Een Groot Geluk


Een Groot Geluk ((French Version: Comme Un Soleil (Michel Fugain & Anne Vanderlove)) Composer(s): Pierre Delanoë - Michel Fugain - Nelly Byl Performer(s): Jimmy Frey



Een groot geluk vindt je overal
Eens wordt het licht
Bij het schemeren van de dag
Eens schijnt de dag
Als de wereld ontwaakt
En in je hart
Als de liefde ontwaakt

Je mag van mij verlangen wat je wil
Vraag mij zelfs alles op te geven
Nooit meer te luisteren naar de zomerwind
Noch naar een vogelzang
Of de lach van een kind
'k Wil mijlen ver langs donkere wegen gaan
Als ik het licht maar zie
Op 't einde van de baan
Vraag dat ik sterren uit de hemel pluk
Maar zeg me waar vind ik geluk

Een groot geluk vindt je overal
Eens wordt het licht
Bij het schemeren van de dag
Eens schijnt de dag
Als de wereld ontwaakt
En in je hart
Als de liefde ontwaakt

Je mag van mij verlangen wat je wil
Vraag me zelfs alles op te geven
Neem al men vrienden weg uit men bestaan
Ontneem me elke bloem en elke zonnestraal
Laat me maar dwalen door de duisternis
Tot ik een plekje vind dat klaar en helder is
'k Wil alles doen en vechten stuk voor stuk
Maar zeg me waar vind ik geluk

Een groot geluk vindt je overal
Eens wordt het licht
Bij het schemeren van de dag
Eens schijnt de dag
Als de wereld ontwaakt
En in je hart
Als de liefde ontwaakt

True Colors


True Colors
((Swedish Version: I Dina Ögon (Shirley Clamp) - 2006))
Composer(s): Tom Kelly - Billy Steinberg
First release: Cyndi Lauper - 1986
Covered by multiple other artists



You with the sad eyes
Don't be discouraged
Oh I realize
It's hard to take courage
In a world full of people
You can lose sight of it all
And the darkness inside you
Can make you feel so small

But I see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful
Like a rainbow

Show me a smile then
Don't be unhappy, can't remember
When I last saw you laughing
If this world makes you crazy
And you've taken all you can bear
You call me up
Because you know I'll be there

And I'll see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful
Like a rainbow

(When I last saw you laughing)
If this world makes you crazy
And you've taken all you can bear
You call me up
Because you know I'll be there

And I'll see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show

Your true colors
true colors
true colors
Shining through

I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful
Like a rainbow

I Shoulda Loved Ya


I Shoulda Loved Ya
Composer(s): Narada Michael Walden; T.M. Stevens; Alee Willis
Performer(s): Narada Michael Walden



I shoulda loved ya
I shoulda loved ya
Ooh, when I touched ya
I shoulda loved ya

There you were, I was blinded
After love, swore I couldn't find it
A seduction grabbed my hand
Ooh, my body screamed, but my heart just didn't understand

Life between the sheets is fine
If all you want to make this time
But if you want to make it last
Ooh, you'll lose control if you drive too fast

I shoulda loved ya
I shoulda loved ya
Ooh, when I touched ya
I shoulda loved ya

Going down for the count
Now I'm in, but you are out
My memories are my obsession
Beggin' for attention, ooh yeah

Apprehending all my criminal need
That stole your heart, then left you to bleed
Those days are over, baby, yes, I swear
Just say the word and I'll be there

I shoulda loved ya
I shoulda loved ya
Ooh, when I touched ya
It made too much of you

I shoulda loved ya
I shoulda loved ya
Ooh, when I touched ya
I shoulda loved ya

I shoulda loved ya
I shoulda loved ya
Ooh, when I touched ya
I shoulda loved ya

I shoulda loved ya
I shoulda loved ya
Ooh, when I touched ya
I shoulda loved ya

I shoulda loved ya (Whoa...whoa...whoa...whoa...whoa...whoa...)
I shoulda loved ya (I-I shoulda loved you)
Ooh, when I touched ya
It made too much of you (Yeah..ooh...ooh...)

I shoulda loved ya (Ooh, my baby, baby, baby, baby, babe)
I shoulda loved ya (Said I-I shoulda loved you)
I shoulda loved ya (Oh, yeah, oh, yeah)
I shoulda loved ya (I shoulda loved you)

Een Eiland In Groen En Blauw


Een Eiland In Groen En Blauw
Composer(s): Rocco Granata - Phil Van Cauwenbergh Performer(s): Marva



Ik droom voor jou
In groen en blauw
Een eiland in de zon
Met hier en daar
Zeg jij me waar
Een beekje en een bron

Een eiland uit
Duizendeen nacht
Waar iedereen nog weet
Waarom de liefde liefde heet
En waar ik jou
In groen en blauw
Steeds in m'n armen hou

Een eiland als een zoen
En duizend valdegroen
Dat dobbert op een blauwe zee
Een eiland met een zon
Die nooit meer ondergaat
En die maar schijnt en schijnt
Tot in de kleinste straat

Ik droom voor jou
In groen en blauw
Een eiland in de zon
Waar alles vlacht
En zingt en lacht
Sinds het met jou begon

Een eiland uit
Duizendeen nacht
Waar iedereen nog weet
Waarom de liefde liefde heet
En waar ik jou
In groen en blauw
Steeds in m'n armen hou
En waar ik jou
In groen en blauw
Steeds in m'n armen hou

True Blue Love


True Blue Love
Performer(s): Lou Gramm



Had enough of my yesterdays
I can't go back to mistakes that I've made
Had enough of my dark side
And the hard ride that we've been through
And now I've got so much to prove
So don't let go, I've been a heart-selfish fool
It's a feeling I'm rising above
I'll give you love, true love, true blue love
Give you true blue love
And I know into one heart that shattered
Tenderness is the only thing that matters
Don't turn away from true blue love
Running hard in an empty race
Just take a look at the lines on this face
In my eyes you can measure the miles
But no one can measure desire
So take my hand, can you feel how it burns
And don't let go till your heart finally learns
Why this wandering soul has returned
To give you love, true love, true blue love
Give you true blue love
And I know into one heart that shattered
Tenderness is the only thing that matters
Don't turn away from true blue love
And I know into one soul that's healing
Loneliness is the only thing you're feeling
Don't turn away from true blue love
I'll give you love, true love, true blue love
Give you true blue love
I know into one heart that shattered
Tenderness is the only thing that matters
Don't turn away from true blue love
And I know into one soul that's healing
Loneliness is the only thing you're feeling
Don't turn away from true blue love

Whoa, oh, I never realized what a kiss could be
this could only happen to me

That when I tell you that I love you, oh
you're gonna say you love me too, oh
And when I ask you to be mine
you're gonna say you love me too

So I should have realized a lot of things before
If this is love you've got to give me more
give me more, hey hey hey, give me more

Whoa, oh, I never realized what a kiss could be

You love me too

Better than the whisky, brandy gin or glue
Makes your liver frisky does Eeh! Or! Ah! Nu!

Milligan/Eccles:
And for making company or friends try some in your coffee
And ya ha ya ya ha

Secombe:
So if you get heated, don't get defeated

True Blue (Rod Stewart)


True Blue
Composer(s): Rod Stewart - Ron Wood
Performer(s): Rod Stewart



Never been a millionaire
and I tell you mama I don't care
Never gonna own a race-horse
or a fast back mid-engine Porsche
Don't think I'll own a private jet
on the Stock Exchange I'm no threat
So won't you help me make up my mind
Don't you think I'd better get myself back home

Sitting in the moonlight glow
excuse me if my feelings show
Watching all the trucks roll by
dreaming up an alibi
You see, back home I'm considered the fool
but maybe they're right I don't know
So can't you help make up my mind
Don't you think I'd better get myself back home
Who cares

Daddy says he'll buy me car
to drive just as far as I need
He wants me back at any expense
He's got a lot more money than sense
Funny but now that I'm gone
they all wanna be concerned
Oh please can you make up my mind
Don't you think I'd better get myself back home
Just don't know what to do
Maybe I'll walk, maybe I'll ride, maybe I'll never ever decide

Get out da way
I gotta get on home
I gotta get home as soon as I can

Eee-0 Eleven
Composer(s): Sammy Cahn - James Van Heusen
Performer(s): Sammy Davis Jr.



One day I'll have me a chauffeur...
And a block long limousine
Eee-o Eleven
Eee-o Eleven

Someday I'll have me a penthouse
Stacks and stacks of folding green
Eee-o Eleven
Eee-o Eleven

It's all a state of mind
Whether or not you'll fine
That place down there or heaven
In the meantime

Eee-o-Eee-o
Eee-o Eleven
Eee-o Eleven
Eee-o Eleven

Show me a man without a dream
And I'll show you a man that's dead
Real Dead

Once I had me a dream
But that dream got kicked in the head
Dream dead

I nearly had me that chauffeur
And that block long limousine
Eee-o Eleven
Eee-o Eleven

I nearly had me that penthouse
All them stacks of folding green
Eee-o Eleven
Eleven

Some Judge is gonna say
I'm putting you away
For four score years and seven
In the meantime
Eee-o Eleven
Eee-o Eleven

Composer(s): John Williamson

Hey True Blue, don't say you've gone
Say you've knocked off for a smoko
And you'll be back later on
Hey True Blue, Hey True Blue

Give it to me straight
Face to face
Are you really disappearing
Just another dying race
Hey True Blue

True Blue, is it me and you?
Is it Mum and Dad, is it a cockatoo?
Is it standing by your mate
When he's in a fight?
Or just Vegemite
True Blue, I'm asking you...

Hey True Blue, can you bear the load?
Will you tie it up with wire
Just to keep the show on the road?
Hey True Blue, Hey True Blue, now be Fair Dinkum

Is your heart still there?
If they sell us out like sponge cake
Do you really care?
Hey True Blue

True Blue, is it me and you?
Is it Mum and Dad, is it a cockatoo?
Is it standing by your mate
When she's in a fight?
Or just Vegemite
True Blue, I'm asking you...
True Blue, is it me and you?
Is it Mum and Dad, is it a cockatoo?
Is it standing by your mate
When he's in a fight?
Or just Vegemite
True Blue... True Blue

I Should Care


I Should Care
Composer(s): Sammy Cahn; Axel Stordahl; Paul Weston
First performance/First release by: Bob Allen & the Tommy Dorsey Orch. - 1945/Martha Tilton & Orch. - 1945
Covered by multiple other artists



I guess I should pity me
But I don't because you see
I have loved and I have learned
And as far as I'm concerned

I should care
I should go around weeping
I should care
I should go without sleeping
Strangley enough I sleep well
'Cept for a dream or two
But then I count my sheep well
Funny how sheep can lull you to sleep

I should care
I should let it upset me
I should care
But it just doesn't get me
Maybe I won't find someone
as lovely as you!
But I should care and I do!

True


True
Composer(s): Gary Kemp
Performer(s): Spandau Ballet



So true funny how it seems
always in time, but never in line for dreams
Head over heels when toe to toe
This is the sound of my soul
this is the sound

I bought a ticket to the world
but now I've come back again
Why do I find it hard to write the next line?
Oh I want the truth to be said

Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
I know this much is true
Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
I know this much is true

With a thrill in my head and a pill on my tongue
dissolve the nerves that have just begun
Listening to Marvin (all night long)
This is the sound of my soul
this is the sound

Always slipping from my hands
Sets a time of its own
Take your seaside arms and write the next line
Oh I want the truth to be known

Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
I know this much is true
Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
I know this much is true

I bought a ticket to the world
but now I've come back again
Why do I find it hard to write the next line?
Oh I want the truth to be said

Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
I know this much is true
Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
I know this much is true

This much is true

I know, I know, I know this much is true

I Should Be Sleeping


I Should Be Sleeping
Composer(s): Lisa Drew; Shaye Smith
Performer(s): Emerson Drive; Hit Crew



I never knew there were such great movies
On TV at 3 a.m.
I never guessed that at midnight Tuesday
I'd could have pizza ordered in
I never been a real night owl
But these days I'm all turned around
There's only one thing I'm sure of right now

I should be sleepin'
Instead of keepin' these late hours I've been keepin'
I've been pacing and retracing
Every step of every move
And even though I'm feelin' so right
I'm so happy still I know
I should be sleepin'
Instead of dreamin' about you

I never knew that I was funny and
I went and made you laugh
Never like a girl to call me honey
But you did and I like that
I keep thinkin' about your smile
Tryin' to read between the lines
Looks like I'll be up for awhile

I should be sleepin'
Instead of keepin' these late hours I've been keepin'
I've been pacing and retracing
Every step of every move
And even though I'm feelin' so right
I'm so happy still I know
I should be sleepin'
Instead of dreamin' about you

How could just three days (just three days)
One great kiss (one great kiss)

It's way too soon (way too soon)
To be obsesssing like this

I should be sleepin'
Instead of keepin' these late hours I've been keepin'
I've been pacing and retracing
Every step of every move
And even though I'm feelin' so right
I'm so happy still I know
I should be sleepin'
Instead of dreamin' about you

Dreamin' about you
I should be sleepin'

Editions Of You


Editions Of You
Composer(s): Bryan Ferry First release by: Roxy Music - 1973 Covered by multiple other artists



Well I´m here looking through an old picture frame
Just waiting for the perfect view
I hope something special will step in to my life
Another fine edition of you
A pin-up done in shades of blue
Sometimes you find a yearning for the quiet life
The country air and all its joys
But badgers couldn’t compensate at twice the price
For just another night with the boys oh yeah
And boys will be boys, will be boys
They say love´s a gamble, hard to win, easy lose
And while sun shines you´d better make hay
So if life is your table and fate is the wheel
Then let the chips fall where they may
In modern times the modern way

And as I was drifting past the Lorelei
I heard those slinky sirens wail - whooo
So look out sailor when you hear them croon
You´ll never been the same again oh no
Their crazy music drives you insane - this way

So love, leave me, do what you will
- who knows what tomorrow might bring?
Learn from your mistakes is my only advice
And stay cool is still the main rule
Don’t play yourself for a fool
Too much cheesecake too soon
Old money´s better than new
No mention in the latest tribune
And don´t let this happen to you

Truckin' (Grateful Dead)


Truckin'
Composer(s): Jerry Garcia - Philip Lesh - Bob Weir - Robert Hunter
First release: Grateful Dead - 1970
Covered by multiple other artists



Truckin' got my chips cashed in
Keep truckin', like the do-dah man
Together, more or less in line, just keep truckin' on

Arrows of neon and flashing marquees out on Main Street
Chicago, New York, Detroit and it's all on the same street
Your typical city involved in a typical daydream
Hang it up and see what tomorrow brings

Dallas, got a soft machine
Houston, too close to New Orleans
New York's got the ways and means
But just won't let you be, oh no

Most of the cats that you meet on the streets speak of true love
Most of the time they're sittin' and cryin' at home
One of these days they know they better get goin'
Out of the door and down on the streets all alone

Truckin', like the do-dah man once told me "You've got to play your hand"
Sometimes your cards ain't worth a dime, if you don't lay'em down

Sometimes the light's all shinin' on me
Other times I can barely see
Lately it occurs to me
What a long, strange trip it's been

What in the world ever became of sweet Jane?
She lost her sparkle, you know she isn't the same
Livin' on reds, vitamin C, and cocaine
All a friend can say is "Ain't it a shame?"

Truckin', up to Buffalo
Been thinkin', you got to mellow slow
Takes time, you pick a place to go, and just keep truckin' on

Sittin' and starin' out of the hotel window
Got a tip they're gonna kick the door in again
I'd like to get some sleep before I travel
But if you got a warrant, I guess you're gonna come in

Busted, down on Bourbon Street, set up, like a bowlin' pin
Knocked down, it get's to wearin' thin
They just won't let you be, oh no

You're sick of hangin' around and you'd like to travel
Get tired of travelin' and you want to settle down
I guess they can't revoke your soul for tryin'
Get out of the door and light out and look all around

Sometimes the light's all shinin' on me
Other times I can barely see
Lately it occurs to me
What a long, strange trip it's been

Truckin', I'm a goin' home
Whoa whoa baby, back where I belong
Back home, sit down and patch my bones, and get back truckin' on
Hey now get back truckin' home

I Should Be Dancing


I Should Be Dancing
Performer(s): The Emotions



I should be dancing
We should be romancing
I should be dancing
In the moonlight with you

I sit home night after night
Just waiting for your call
But I never get one
I end up just
Tossing in my bed
And staring at the walls
Wondering what I did wrong

You say I'm the only one
If that's true
Tell me, why can't I see you

We go for days and days
Without a word
Tell me, have I blown my single

I should be dancing
We should be romancing
I should be dancing
In the moonlight with you

I should be dancing
Love is enchanting
Let the music
Bring my heart together with you

Saturday night
Seems to be much lonelier than the rest
How much longer
Must I wait
Don't make me wait
I really care for you
But I can't sit here forever, baby
Come to me
Take your place

I should be dancing
We should be romancing
I should be dancing
In the moonlight with you

I should be dancing
Love is enchanting
Let the music
Bring my heart together with you

I should be dancing
We should be romancing
I should be dancing
In the moonlight with you

I should be dancing
Love is enchanting
Let the music
Bring my heart together with you

I should be dancing
We should be romancing
I should be dancing
In the moonlight with you

I should be dancing
Love is enchanting

Édition Spéciale
Composer(s): Francis Cabrel

D'abord y a cette fille
Dans la boîte de verre
Qui dit "Bonne nuit, à demain"
Sur un bout de musique
Des bonshommes à l'envers
Et puis après plus rien
J'étais là à huit heures
Pour les mauvaises nouvelles
Elle m'a laissé tout seul
Avec mes envies d'elle
Derrière son visage
Un paysage de neige
Et puis après plus rien
Après je prends mon pote
Sur la radio locale
Au milieu d'un discours
C'est le temps qu'il espère
Au-dessus de son bocal
S'il arrive à faire jour
Parce qu'il paraît qu'y a le feu
À la moitié de la Terre
Et qu'on attend du mieux
Juste pour les sagittaires
Après un dernier verre
Le souffle des étoiles
Et puis après plus rien
Et puis après plus rien
Et puis après Edition Spéciale, Edition Spéciale
En couleur naturelle
Mes envies d'elle
Et puis après Edition Spéciale, Edition Spéciale
En grandeur nature
Ses yeux sur le mur
Et puis après je cherche
Quelqu'un que je connais
Qui soit encore debout
Faut pas que je me leurre
À l'heure qu'il est
On doit pas être beaucoup
J'ai du mal à dormir
À côté de personne
Et le silence m'attend
Je l'entends qui résonne
"Allez, salut bonsoir !"
Le bruit quand je raccroche
Et puis après plus rien
Et puis après plus rien
Et puis après Edition Spéciale, Edition Spéciale
En grandeur nature
Ses yeux sur le mur
Et puis après Edition Spéciale, Edition Spéciale
En couleur naturelle
Mes envies d'elle
Quand je me lève
La fille dans la boîte de verre
A déjà dit bonjour
Mon pote est reparti
Sur une autre colère
Dans un autre discours
Mais la nuit arrive vite
À ceux qui ont peur d'elle
Y a des choses qu'on évite
Pas facile avec elle
Après-midi tranquille
Après-midi banal
Et puis après...
Et puis après...
Et puis après...

Truckin' (Bread)


Truckin'
Composer(s): James Griffin - Robb Royer
Performer(s): Bread



Truckin' down the highway
Get outta my way
Always in a hurry
Always in between
That's where you can find me
Truckin' down the highway
Sittin' in the cab of
A ten ton machine

Gettin' pretty tired of stoppin'
In old run down cafes
Some day I'm gonna find me a woman
Rich enough to pay my way

Gonna make some inroads
Drivin' home a payload
Truckin' down the highway
Like you never seen

Gettin' pretty tired of lookin'
In truck stop cabarets
Some day I'm gonna find me a woman
Rich enough to pay my way

Then you're gonna find me
Truckin' down the highway
Sittin' in the back of
A long limousine
