Le Petit Chemin De Pierres
Le Petit Chemin De Pierres
(English & Italian Versions: Stairway To The Sea; Scalinatèlla)
Composer(s): Enzo Bonagura - Giuseppe Cioffi - J. Patrick
Performer(s): Dalida; Wal-Berg & His Orch.
Je n'oublierai jamais le gai trajet que fait
Le petit chemin de pierres
Parmi le lierre et les genets
Là tu disais que tu m'aimais que tu m'aimais
M'aimerais la vie entière douce prière que j'écoutais
La joie chantait dans nos cœur
Battant la même mesure
Nos yeux brillaient d'un éclat plus chaud
Que les feux du ciel
La terre autour de nous deux
tournait à si folle allure
Que notre amour semblait surnaturel
Mais aujourd'hui
je prie, je crie, je fuis, je suis
Seule avec toute ma peine
Pauvre rengaine que sont mes nuits
Car j'ai laissé mon cœur lassé, blessé, brisé
Sur notre chemin de pierres
Si solitaire et délaissé
Cruel mirage que ce chemin
Trop beau voyage sans lendemain

Past Three O'clock
Past Three O'clock
Composer(s): George Ratcliff Woodward
Performer(s): Choir of King's College, Cambridge
Past three o'clock
On a cold frosty morning
Past three o'clock
Good morrow masters all
Born is a baby
Gentle as may be
Son of the Eternal
Father supernal
Seraph choir singeth
Angel bell ringeth
Hark how they rhyme it
Time it and chime it!
Mid earth rejoices
Hearing such voices
Ne'ertofore so well
Carolling nowell!
Hinds o'er the pearly
Dewy lawn early
Seek the high stranger
Laid in the manager
Cheese from the dairy
Bring they for Mary
And, not for money
Butter and honey
Light out of star-land
Leadeth from far land
Princes, to meet him
Worship and greet him
Myrrh from full coffer
Incense they offer
Nor is the golden
Nugget withholden
Thus they: I pray you
Up sirs, nor stay you
Till ye confess him
Likewise and bless him

Saying Hello, Saying I Love You, Saying Goodbye
Saying Hello, Saying I Love You, Saying Goodbye
Composer(s): Jeff Barry; Dene Hofheinz; Brad Burg
Performer(s): Jim Ed Brown & Helen Cornelius; Lisa Hartman
Saying hello, saying I love you, saying goodbye
Oh, I had my share of strangers who turned into lovers
Then turned back to strangers again
Oh, I lost them in a crowd of sad passers-by
Saying hello, saying I love you, saying goodbye
Yes, it's a long way from nowhere to the place where we're standing
But baby, baby we've finally arrived
After traveling separate highways, taking all the dead end rides
Saying hello, saying I love you, saying goodbye
Oh, baby, I hear you, I hear you, and I really do believe it
I finally do believe it in my heart
Let's close all the doors behind us and wrap the night around us
Baby now don't say a word
Let's just make love to each other and leave the world outside
Saying hello, saying I love you, saying goodbye
Let's just make love to each other and leave the world outside
Saying hello, saying I love you, saying goodbye

Parade Of The Wooden Soldiers
Parade Of The Wooden Soldiers
Composer(s): Ballard Macdonald; Leon Jessel
Performer(s): Harry Connick Jr.
and multiple other artists
The toy shop door is locked up tight
And ev'rything is quiet for the night
When suddenly the clock strikes twelve
The fun's begun
The dolls are in their best arrayed
There's going to be a wonderful parade
Hark to the drum, oh, here they come
Cries ev'ryone
Hear them all cheering
Now they are nearing
There's the captain stiff as starch
Bayonets flashing
Music is crashing
As the wooden soldiers march
Sabers a-clinking
Soldiers a-winking
At each pretty little maid
Here they come
Here they come
Here they come
Here they come
Wooden soldiers on parade

Over The River And Through The Woods
Over The River And Through The Woods
(Traditional)
Performer(s): The Chipmunks;
and various other artists
Over the river and through the woods
To Grandmother's house we go
The horse knows the way to carry the sleigh
Through white and drifted snow
Over the river and through the woods
Oh, how the wind does blow
It stings the toes and bites the nose
As over the ground we go
Over the river and through the woods
To have a full day of play
Oh, hear the bells ringing ting-a-ling-ling
For it is Christmas Day
Over the river and through the woods
Trot fast my dapple gray
Spring o'er the ground just like a hound
For this is Christmas Day
Over the river and through the woods
And straight through the barnyard gate
It seems that we go so dreadfully slow
It is so hard to wait
Over the river and through the woods
Now Grandma's cap I spy
Hurrah for fun, the pudding's done
Hurrah for the pumpkin pie

Say, Has Anybody Seen My Sweet Gypsy Rose
Composer(s): Irwin Levine; L. Russell Brown
First release by: Dawn & Tony Orlando - 1973
and multiple other artists
We were happy, at least I thought we were
Can somebody tell me what's got into her?
A house, a home, a family and a man that loves her so
Who'd believe she'd leave us to join a burlesque show?
Oh say, has anybody seen my Sweet Gypsy Rose
Here's her picture when she was my sweet Mary Jo
Now she's got rings on her fingers and bells on her toes
Say has anybody seen my Sweet Gypsy Rose?
Oh I got, wind my Jo's been dancin' here in New Orleans
In this smoke-filled honky tonk they call The Land of Dreams
Now here she comes struttin' in her birthday clothes
Say has anybody seen my Sweet Gypsy Rose?
Oh baby, baby won't cha come home
We all miss you and every night we kiss your picture
Suppose one night the lights go dim and the crowd goes home
That's the day you wake up and you find you're all alone
So let's say goodbye to Gypsy Rose, hello Mary Jo
Say has anybody seen my sweet gypsy rose?
So take those rings off your fingers, and bells off your toes
Say has anybody seen my
Now you know just what I mean by
Has anybody seen my
Sweet gypsy Rose?

The First Snowfall
The First Snowfall
Composer(s): Sonny Burke; Paul Francis Webster
Performer(s): The Carpenters;
and various other artists
Oh the first snowfall of the winter
Was a day that we all waited for
When it drifted to and fro
Why you should've seen the snow
It was near seven feet or more
By the old barn door
Oh the first snowfall of the winter
What a joy for a boy to behold
In each house you'll find a sleigh
That was waiting for this day
And of course, down the road a hill
For each Jack and Jill
Every winter breeze that scurries
Sends the snowflakes up in flurries
It's the good old sentimental season when
Folks put runners on their surreys
They forget about their worries
And a man becomes a boy once again
Oh, the first snowfall of the winter
Jingle bells wove their spells ever dear
Under wintry skies of gray
It was snowing hard all the day
And it showed no signs of stoppin'
Every kid with eyes a-poppin'
Knew he'd soon be belly-whoppin' on his ear
On the first snowfall of the winter
Oh, that first snowfall of the year
(The first snowfall of the year)
Oh, that first snowfall of the year

(Say) You're My Girl
(Say) You're My Girl
Composer(s): Bill Dees; Roy Orbison
Performer(s): Roy Orbison
You're my girl
Hello! May I have this dance with you?
How have you been, girl?
Hold me and then, girl, just let me look at you
Tell me now is it true?
Oh! Did you break up, no chance to make up?
I hate to take up all your time but tell me
Although it won't be repeated
you mean to tell me he cheated?
Oh, what a fool he's been though he is my best friend
I hate it this way but I've waited for this day
I always wanted you to be my girl, be my girl, be my girl
I still don't believe it he played around on you
Cause I know you, I loved you, too
With your big eyes, full lips, high cheekbones and everything about you, girl
your personality girl
Give me a chance, come on, let's dance and dance the night away-ay-ay-ay
You're my girl, you're my girl
Oh, Baby, Baby! Baby
hold me tight, be mine tonight, say it's all right!
And I will never ever let you go
Oh no!
Be my girl, be my girl, you're my girl, you're my... you're my-y-y girl

Out Of The East (Harry Noble)
Out Of The East
Composer(s): Harry Noble
Out of the East there came riding, riding
Three of the wisest of men
Dust was their enemy blinding, blinding
Even the wisest of them
Wandering shepherds heard tell their story
Told in the flickering firelight
Tender light
Ever bright Christmas night
Far to the West was there shining, shining
Blazing a star in the dawn
Reverent wise men beheld it, saying
"This night a savior is born"
Into the West the went riding, riding
Following after the star
Over a quiet town shining, shining
Lighting their way from afar
Under its glory sat Mother Mary
Tenderly singing a lullaby
Hush-a-by
Don't-you-cry lullaby
Into the stable came riding, riding
Three of the wisest of men
Gifts did they bring for that Babe in manger
Gifts for the savior of men
Lo! in a manger they found Him, found Him
Bathed in the light of yon star
Gold did they bring Him and frankincense
And myrrh from a land that was far
Shepherds crept in singing praises, praises
Angels kept watch to be near to Him
Dear to Him
One with Him, praising Him
Into the East then went riding, riding
Three of the wisest of men
Found was the Babe in a lowly manger
Crowned was the Savior of men

Say the sun will never shine again
And say the rose that blooms will never bloom again
But come what may, I know I must have you again
My darling, say you're mine again
Say that spring will never come again
And say that chapel bells will never ring again
No matter what will be, I must be yours again
So darling, say you're mine again
If I wouldn't lose all the world and it's treasures
Who cares, let it be as it may
As long as I have you beside me
I'll always be happy that way
Say I'll never see the rain again
And say I'll never hear a sweet refrain again
And say that I was wrong and I'm to blame again
But darling, say you're mine again
Say I'll never see the rain again
And say I'll never hear a sweet refrain again
And say that I was wong and I'm to blame again
But darling, say you're mine again
Say you're mine again

Composer(s): Margie Singleton; Bert Keyes
Performer(s): Brook Benton
(Bom-bom-bom-bom-bom-bom-bom-bom)
This is our first Christmas together
We've got songs to sing, bells to ring
So much to enjoy, in a million merry ways
We'll spend the holidays in love
And on our first Christmas together
Let us make a vow, here and now
That we'll always be, Darling, in each others arms
When December snowflakes fall above
Let's do our Christmas shopping early
And while the crowds are on the go
We'll be somewhere kissing the time away
Un-un-un-unerneath the mistletoe
We'll make our first Christmas together
Oh, be a lasting thrill, one that will never ever die
May it bring us loving cheers
Each Christmas as the years go by
(Bom-bom-bom-bom-bom-bom-bom-bom)
Merry Christmas ev'rybody!

Composer(s): Lionel Richie
First release by: Lionel Richie - 1985
Say you, say me
Say it for always
That's the way it should be
Say you, say me
Say it together, nat'rally
I had a dream I had an awesome dream
People in the park palyin' games in the dark
And what they played was a masquerade
But from behind the walls of doubt, a voice wa crying out
Say you, say me
Say it for always
That's the way it should be
Say you, say me
Say it together, nat'rally
As we go down life's lonesome highway
Seems the hardest thing to do is to find a friend or two
That helping hand, someone who understands
And when you feel you've lost your way
You've got someone there to say, "I'll show you"
Say you, say me
Say it for always
That's the way it should be
Say you, say me
Say it together, nat'rally
So you think you know the answers
Oh, no. Well, the whole world's got ya dance that's right
I'm tellin' you
It's time to start believing
Oh, you
Believe in who you are; you are a shining star
Say you, say me
Say it for always
That's the way it should be
Say you, say me
Say it together, nat'rally
Say it together, nat'rally

Only One Night Of The Year
Only One Night Of The Year
Composer(s): Mike Reid
Performer(s): Ronnie Milsap
There's a magic light in the stars tonight
It shines with a wondrous glow
There's a whisper of love in the silence of
Gently falling snow
There's cookies and milk on the table
Ribbons on bright candy canes
And every child who is able
Has their nose to the window pane
`Cause for only one night of the year
You can see flying reindeer
And if you believe in Christmas' Eve
There's no telling who will appear
With his whiskers and pipe
He comes only one night of the year
It's the sugar plum world of cinnamon swirls
A hints of pinewood in the air
As the church bell chimes about twelve times
I slip into my easy chair
To watch the fire die to an ember
And drift into a winter dream
Of a magical night in December
And faith in a sight unseen
And for only one night of the year
You can see flying reindeer
And if you believe in Christmas Eve
There's no telling who will appear
With his whiskers and pipe
He comes only one night of the year
Ummmm, if you believe in Christmas Eve
Raise a glass of good cheer
`Cause wish as we might
It comes only one night of the year

If there were no presents
Waiting on Santa's sleigh
What would I wish for Christmas

On Christmas day
If I had one wish for Christmas
There would be joy
And peace here on earth
If I had one wish for Christmas this year
We would all come together as one
If Rudolph and his reindeer
Ran into delays
I'd still hope for joy this season
And if somehow Santa got lost on his way
I would try to find a way to smile
Smile on Christmas day
