Take Me To Your Heaven
Take Me To Your Heaven
Composer(s): Lars 'Dille' Diedricson - Marcos Ubeda
First performance by: Charlotte Nilsson - 1999
Shadows dancin' slowly on my wall
Moonlight paintin' silver to the sound of heartbeats
Magical emotions take control
Knowin' we will meet before the night is over
Then I'm gonna make you mine, love you till the end of time
Take me to your heaven, hold on to a dream
Take me to your heaven when my nights are cold and lonely
Flyin' high together on a journey to the stars
Won't you take me to your heaven, to your heart?
I can feel your body next to mine
Reachin' for a kiss that keeps me warm and tender
Seven steps to heaven show the way
When I'm there, I give myself in sweet surrender
Then I'm gonna make you mine, love you till the end of time
Take me to your heaven, hold on to a dream
Take me to your heaven when my nights are cold and lonely
Flyin' high together on a journey to the stars
Won't you take me to your heaven, to your heart?
As dawn is breakin' there is so much more to say
So will you be my one and only when nights are lonely?
Hold on tight forever
Take me to your heaven, hold on to a dream
Take me to your heaven when my nights are cold and lonely
Flyin' high together on a journey to the stars
Won't you take me to your heaven, to your heart?
Oh... so won't you take me to your heaven, to your heart?

Southern Nights
Southern Nights
(French Version: Mon Copain Julie)
Composer(s): Allen Toussaint
First release by: Allen Toussaint - 1975
Covered by multiple other artists
Southern nights, have you ever felt a southern night
Free as a breeze, not to mention the trees
Whistling tunes that you know and love so-oh
Southern nights, just as good even when closed your eyes
I apologi-ise to any one who can truly say
That he has found a better way-hay, yeah
Southern skies, have you ever noticed southern skies (southern skies)
Rich precious beauty lies just beyond the eye
It goes running through the soul, like the stories told of old
Old man, he and his dog that walk the old land
Every flower tou-ouched by his cold hand
As he slowly walked by weeping willows would cry for joy, joy
Feels so good, feels so good it's frightening
Wish I could stop this world from fighting
La-da-da-dah-dah, da-da-da-da-da-dah-dah
da-da-da-da-da-da-dah
da-da-dah, da-da-dah
Mystery, like this and many others in the trees
Blow in the ni-ight
In the southern skies
Southern nights
They feel so good it's frightening
Wish I could (southern nights) stop this world from fighting
Da-da-da-dah-dah, da-da-da-da-da-dah-dah
da-da-da-da-da-dah
La-da-dah, da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-dah
Southern skies
Have you ever noticed........

Happy Birthday Blues (Kathy Young)
Happy Birthday Blues
Composer(s): J. Micheal Lee
Performer(s): Kathy Young
There she sits all alone, her tear begins to shed
A written letter in her hand, this is how it read
Turned sixteen just yesterday (ooh-ooh-ooh)
All my world was bright and gay (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Thought for sure you'd write or call but you didn't after all
Got the Happy Birthday Blues (Happy Birthday Blues)
Maybe you had lots to do (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Or you found somebody new (ooh-ooh-ooh)
How I pray you'll hear my plea, I'm as lonely as can be
Got the Happy Birthday Blues (Happy Birthday Blues)
I planned just how this day would be for such a long, long time
You'd wish me "Happy Birthday" while I held your hand in mine
I'd blow out all the candles while I wished that you and I
Would be together ever more until the day we die
As I sit here in the gloom (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Of my cold and lonely room (ooh-ooh-ooh)
How my heart is filled with fears and my eyes are filled with tears
Got the Happy Birthday Blues (Happy Birthday Blues)

Happy Birthday Blues (B.B. King)
Happy Birthday Blues
French Title: J'ai Le Bonjour Du Blues
Composer(s): Will Jennings; Joe Sample
Performer(s): B.B. King
Baby lights her cigarette
And takes a look around
She says that morning sun
Sure does get her down
Nothing else to see
Just to help her lose
Those happy birthday blues
Grandpa takes a drink of wine
And tells it like it was
Tells me all he wants to do
Is what everybody does
Say he'd give the world
For a little girl
Just to help him lose
Those happy birthday blues
Happy birthday blues
Happy birthday blues
Got to pay your dues
Those happy birthday blues
In and out and on and on
Everybody goes
And where the fun with finally stops
Everybody knows
Girls it's me and you
Doing what we do
Just one way to lose
Those happy birthday blues

Southern man better keep your head
Don't forget what your good book said
Southern change gonna come at last
Now your crosses are burning fast
Southern man
I saw cotton and I saw black
Tall white mansions and little shacks.
Southern man when will you pay them back?
I heard screamin' and bullwhips cracking
How long? How long?
Southern man better keep your head
Don't forget what your good book said
Southern change gonna come at last
Now your crosses are burning fast
Southern man
Lily Belle, your hair is golden brown
I've seen your black man comin' round
Swear by God I'm gonna cut him down!
I heard screamin' and bullwhips cracking
How long? How long?

Hiawatha's Melody Of Love
Hiawatha's Melody Of Love
Composer(s): Alfred Bryan; Artie Mehlinger; Geo. W. Meyer
Where the summer skies tenderly
Kiss the pines that rise slenderly
By a forest stream
Indian lovers came to dream
'Neath the moon aglow
In the long ago
They sang of love
sweet and low
Hiawatha roamed tearfully
Gazed up on the spot fearfully
On a moss bound throne
Hiawatha that pined alone
Willow boughs bent low
From them seemed to flow
Music to banish his woe
And the song they sang was Hiawatha's melody
Just a golden memory
Of the days that used to be
As they sat entranced beneath the weeping tree
Every leaf up above seemed to tremble with love
And the evening breeze sang Hiawatha's melody
Sang it sweet and tenderly
Like a lover's rosary
Now the song birds in Spring still remember and sing Hiawatha's melody of love

Happy Birthday Baby
Composer(s): Roger Greenaway; Barry Mason
Performer(s): Tony Christie; Mike Denver
There's a special day for everyone
That comes back once a year
And for you my love
that day of days is here
Refrain:
So have a happy birthday baby
May all your dreams come true
The way mine have with you
This special day I like to say
I wish you every happiness
I hope you're feeling fine
Now you have a real good time
And I wish you a happy birthday baby mine
I don't know what I do
If ever I lost you
I have no today no tomorrow
You made a simple joke
More happy than you know
And today I want to say I love you so
Refrain
Wear your red dress tonight
And we'll dine by candlelight
While the band plays those great golden oldies
I'll take you to the show
And when it's time to go
I'll tell the cab to drive us home real slow
Refrain

All Out Of Luck
All Out Of Luck
Composer(s): Þorvaldur Bjarni Þorvaldsson - Sveinbjörn I. Baldvinsson - Selma Björnsdóttir
First performance by: Selma Björnsdóttir - 1999
Don't work on a Sunday, don't sleep on a Monday
Just think of a fun day when your life is getting you down, yeah
To get through a heartache, just picture a spring day
And play in the bright daylight a while
So give it a chance - you won't regret it
'Cause you know today won't last forever, tomorrow has a brand new name
I'll give you all that I can offer, the rest is all up to you, yeah
You're all out of luck, if you wanna give up, you've got to let go of all your bad memories
Breakin' it up means bringing it down, you need to get right back on track
'Cause you're all out of luck, if you wanna give up, you've got to believe in yourself
You'll be fine 'cause you'll be mine, so just wake up before it's too late
And you're all out of love, you're all out of love
Hey yeah... hey yeah... oh yeah...
Don't work on a Sunday, don't sleep on a Monday
Tomorrow's a new day, all the time, just waiting for you, yeah
From dawn until midnight, or asleep in the moonlight
You'll always be all right just as long as you follow your heart, yeah
You're all out of luck, if you wanna give up, you've got to let go of all your bad memories
Breakin' it up means bringing it down, you need to get right back on track
'Cause you're all out of luck, if you wanna give up, you've got to believe in yourself
You'll be fine 'cause you'll be mine, so just wake up before it's too late
And you're all out of love, you're all out of love
(Hey yeah... hey yeah... oh yeah...)
You're all out of love
Hey yeah... hey yeah... oh yeah...

Happy Birthday (Weird Al Yankovic)
Happy Birthday
Composer(s): Weird Al Yankovic
Performer(s): Weird Al Yankovic
Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday to you!
Well it's time to celebrate your birthday
It happens every year
We'll eat a lot of broccoli and drink a lot of beer
You should be good and happy that there's somethin' you can eat
A million people every day are starvin' in the street
Your daddy's in the gutter with the retched and the poor
Your momma's in the kitchen with a can of Cycle Four
There's garbage in the water
There's poison in the sky
I guess it won't be long before we're all gonna die!
Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday to you!
Well what's the matter, little friend, you think this party is the pits
Enjoy it while you can
We'll soon be blown to bits
The monkeys in the Pentagon
Are gonna cook our goose
Their finger's on the button
All they need is an excuse
It doesn't take a military
Genius to see
We'll all be crispy critters
After World War III
There's no where you can run to
There's no where you can hide
'Cause when they drop the big one
We all get fried!
Come on boys and girls, sing along, okay?
Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday to you! "Wow!"
Well there's a punk in the alley, and he's looking for a fight
There's an Arab on the corner buyin' everything in sight
There's a mother in the ghetto with another mouth to feed
Seems that everywhere you look today there's misery and greed
I guess you know the earth is gonna crash into the sun
But that's no reason why we shouldn't have a little fun
So if you think it's scary, if it's more than you can take
Just blow out the candles
And have a piece of cake!
Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday to you!
"Wow!"
Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday to you!
"Happy Birthday!"
"And a pinch to grow an inch!"

Southern Gals
Southern Gals
Composer(s): Jack Yellen - Albert Gumble
I've just come back from the South today
And there is one thing I'd like to say
Tho' I've been most everywhere
I've never seen such gals as they have down there
It seems that each little peach you see
Is just as sweet as a peach can be
Tho' I can't describe them all to you
Let me name you just a few
I kind of wish I'd have stay'd down there
It's not so much I need the air
But it's true and plain to see
Those little southern gals made a hit with me
And when I march to the wedding tune
I've got a hunch I'll be marching soon
When you see my bride you'll understand
Why I'm stuck on Dixieland
There's Mary down in Maryland
She's mighty pretty And sweet
Virginia too
She'll make a hit with you
You'll go dippy over Mississippi
And the gals named Caroline
They're birds of a feather
So they flock together
And believe me they're just fine
Then there's Lucy Anna with naughty eyes
And a peach named Georgia who takes the prize
So if you get lonesome any time
Come across the Mason Dixon Line
And I'll introduce you to those Southern Gals

And may all your dreams come true
When you blow out the candles
One light stays aglow

We love you
Happy Birthday
And may all your dreams come true
When you blow out the candles
One light stays aglow
It's the love light in your eyes
Where'er you go
"Okay, let's sing it one more time
for everybody who has a birthday this year"
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday
We love you
Happy Birthday
And may all your dreams come true
When you blow out the candles
One light stays aglow
It's the love light in your eyes
Where'er you go
"When you blow out the candles"
When you blow out the candles
One light stays aglow
It's the love light in your eyes
Where'er you go

One Good Reason (Marlayne)
One Good Reason
Composer(s): Tjeerd van Zanen - Alan Michael
First performance by: Marlayne - 1999
You know there never was a doubt in my mind
You only have to follow and learn how to read the signs
A heartache always seems so easy to find
But I will never let go, I wanna see what this love has to hide
We'll just have to face it, rearrange and place it
I'll never let love pass us by
Give me one good reason and I will give you two
Say: "I love you forever", say you will, say you do
Give me one good reason and I will give you two
Say: "I love you forever", say you will, say: "I do"
You know there never was a cloud in my eye
All we have is one chance to reach out for the clear blue skies
We'll just have to face it, rearrange and place it
I'll never let love pass us by
Give me one good reason and I will give you two
Say: "I love you forever", say you will, say you do
Give me one good reason and I will give you two
Say: "I love you forever", say you will, say: "I do"
(And then the heart...)
The heart gets stronger with every step that we take
(From the moment...)
From the moment we go to sleep till the time that we awake
(I won't let...)
I won't let anybody lead us astray
(And then the line...)
And then the line from me to you will never break or fade away
Give me one good reason and I will give you two
I love you forever, yes, I will, baby, I do
Give me one good reason and I will give you two
Say: "I love you forever", say you will, say you do
Give me one good reason and I will give you two
Say: "I love you forever", say you will, say: "I do"
Say: "I do"

Happy Birthday (Stevie Wonder)
Happy Birthday
Composer(s): Stevie Wonder
Performer(s): Stevie Wonder
You know it doesn't make much sense
There ought to be a law against
Anyone who takes offense
At a day in your celebration
‘Cause we all know in our minds
That there ought to be a time
That we can set aside
To show just how much we love you
And I'm sure you would agree
It couldn't fit more perfectly
Than to have a world party on the day you came to be
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
I just never understood
How a man who died for good
Could not have a day that would
Be set aside for his recognition
Because it should never be
Just because some cannot see
The dream as clear as he
that they should make it become an illusion
And we all know everything
That he stood for time will bring
For in peace our hearts will sing
Thanks to Martin Luther King
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Why has there never been a holiday
Where peace is celebrated
all throughout the world
The time is overdue
For people like me and you
Who know the way to truth
Is love and unity to all God's children
It should never be a great event
And the whole day should be spent
In full remembrance
Of those who lived and died for the oneness of all people
So let us all begin
We know that love can win
Let it out don't hold it in
Sing it loud as you can
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday
Happy birthday
Happy birthday
Ooh yeah
Happy birthday...
We know the key to unify all people
Is in the dream that you had so long ago
That lives in all of the hearts of people
That believe in unity
We'll make the dream become a reality
I know we will
Because our hearts tell us so

Southern Cross
Southern Cross
Composer(s): Mike Curtis - Rick Curtis - Stephen Stills
First release by: Crosby, Stills & Nash - 1982
Covered by multiple other artists
Got out of town on a boat
Goin' to Southern islands
Sailing a reach
Before a followin' sea
She was makin' for the trades
On the outside
And the downhill run
To Papeete
Off the wind on this heading
Lie the Marquesas
We got eighty feet of the waterline
Nicely making way
In a noisy bar in Avalon
I tried to call you
But on a midnight watch I realized
Why twice you ran away
Think about how many times
I have fallen
Spirits are using me
larger voices callin'
What heaven brought you and me
Cannot be forgotten
I have been around the world
Lookin' for that woman/girl
Who knows love can endure
And you know it will
And you know it will
When you see the Southern Cross
For the first time
You understand now
Why you came this way
'Cause the truth you might be runnin' from
Is so small
But it's as big as the promise
The promise of a comin' day
So I'm sailing for tomorrow
My dreams are a dyin'
And my love is an anchor tied to you
Tied with a silver chain
I have my ship
And all her flags are a flyin'
She is all that I have left
And music is her name
Think about how many times
I have fallen
Spirits are using me
larger voices callin'
What heaven brought you and me
Cannot be forgotten
I have been around the world
Lookin' for that woman/girl
Who knows love can endure
And you know it will
And you know it will
So we cheated and we lied
And we tested
And we never failed to fail
It was the easiest thing to do
You will survive being bested.
Somebody fine
Will come along
Make me forget about loving you
At the Southern Cross

Performer(s): Joe Dassin
Happy birthday
C'est pas parce qu'on est seul qu'on a pas le droit de danser
De boire du champagne à sa propre santé
De tout illuminer et de se répéter la vie, la vie est belle
Happy birthday
Il est beau mon gâteau, cette année un peu plus petit
Et y a plus de bougies et je vais dîner aux chandelles
En bonne compagnie, la speakerine ce soir est belle
L'an dernier nous étions toi et moi
Cette année tu manques à mon gala
Et je danse sans partenaire
Un ballet qui n'en finit pas
Happy birthday
C'est pas parce qu'on est seul, qu'on a pas le droit de parler
Du beau temps, de la neige et des anniversaires
Qui se sont éloignés des prochains dont tu n'auras rien, rien à faire
Happy birthday
Je me suis fait cadeau du blouson que tu n'aimais pas
Et d'un bel agenda pour tous mes rendez-vous d'amour
Avec toi, pourquoi pas, si tu reviens chez nous un jour
L'an dernier nous étions toi et moi
Cette année tu manques à mon gala
Et je danse sans partenaire
Un ballet qui n'en finit pas

Je Veux Donner Ma Voix
Je Veux Donner Ma Voix
First performance by: Nayah - 1999
S'il n'y a plus de frontières
De nos vies à nos rêves
Et plus qu'une bannière
Un sourire à nos lèvres
Si les murs sont tombés
Qui séparaient nos âmes
S'il suffit d'exister
Pour faire brûler la flamme
S'il suffit de chanter
S'il suffit de chanter
Je veux donner ma voix
Je veux donner mes mots
Je veux donner ma foi
Et ma vie en cadeau
Je veux donner mon cœur
Tout l'amour à venir
Inventer un bonheur
Et ne jamais mourir
S'il n'y a plus de guerre
Qu'on ne gagne d'avance
S'il n'y a plus de frontières
Plus de différences
S'il n'y a plus de chaînes
Qu'on ne puisse détruire
S'il n'y a plus de haine
Pour cacher un sourire
S'il suffit de chanter
S'il suffit de chanter
Je veux donner ma voix
