Speak to me of love
And say what I’m longing to hear

And whisper these words to me, dear
I adore you

Heaven Will Protect An Honest Girl
Heaven Will Protect An Honest Girl
Composer(s): R.P. Weston; Bert Lee; Harris Weston
Performer(s): Gracie Fields
On the day I left the village, my dear Mother whispered, "Nell"
Take this piece of bread and dripping and your fare
And remember when in London, though you're just a servant gel
You're a blonde, the sort that gentlemen ensnare
With your youth and fatal beauty, when you get to Waterloo
There'll be crowds of dukes and millionaires all waiting there for you
Heaven will protect an honest gel
An an-gi-el will guard you, little Nell
When these rich men tempt you, Nelly
With their spark-el-ling Moselly
Say "Nay! nay!" and do be very care-fu-el!
And if some old bloated blase roue swell
Says 'I'll kiss you, we're alone in this hotel'
Breathe a prayer he shall not do it
And then biff him with the cruet
Then Heaven will protect an honest gel!"
When I got to wicked London in my little clogs and shawl
And my but of bread and dripping in my hand
I went up to that big Lifeguard on his horse outside Whitehall
And I asked him to direct me to the Strand
But he didn't even answer; he just sat there with his sword
In a helment that had whiskers on, so I said, "Thank the Lord---for
Heaven will protect an honest gel"
And I reached Picadilly safe and well
There I saw a red light glowing
But across I started going
When a P'liceman pulled me back I nearly fell
"You're a silly little fool," he starts to yell
"Don't you know what that red light means?" I said, "Well
Red's for danger, if you please, sir
But don't switch it on for me, sir
'Cause Heaven will protect an honest gel!"
Optional second verse chorus (or first chorus of third verse if three verses are used)
Heaven will protect an honest gel
That night I got a job at some hotel
But the chef was most improper
For he sat me on the copper
And said "Kiss me or I'll boil you, little Nell"
But I slapped him on the face---and in I fell
And I came up for the third time with a yell
"In the soup I'm going to simmer
But I'll come out clean and slimmer
For Heaven will protect an honest gel!"
I wandered round Li-cester Square from six o'clock till nine
But no millionaire came tempting me to stray
"If he does", I thought, "I'll let him take me to the Ritz to dine
Then I'll gollop up his tripe and run away"
Eeh by gum! I did feel hungry! Eeh! I hadn't had a bite
Since my bit of bread and dripping, and I knew that Ma was right---for
Heaven will protect an honest gel
Next day I pawned my shawl in Camberwell
Then my skirt and blouse, I sold 'em
And went tramping back to Oldham
When a fortnight passed, then I rang at the bell
"Eeh, but Mother dear," I said, "it's little Nell
I have lost my sole---my uppers too, as well---
And I've walked home in my undies
But I'll tell my Class on Sundays
That Heaven will protect an honest gel!"

Wer Liebe Lebt
Wer Liebe Lebt
First performance by: Michelle - 2001
Sommersonnenschein, der in dein Zimmer fällt
Hell und warm, dich umarmt
Und der Schattenblick, der deine Tage trübt
Wird auf einmal wieder klar
Feuer wird aus Eis, wenn dich ihr Zauber leise berührt
Und ein grauer Tag strahlt mit einem Mal
Und du hörst die Melodie voll Gefühl und voll Poesie
Wer Liebe lebt, wird unsterblich sein
Wer Liebe lebt, ist niemals allein
Such sie an jedem neuen Tag
Mal lächelt sie dich an
Und wird ein Leben lang nah dir stehen
Mmm... mal liegt das ganze Glück in einem Augenblick
Und du suchst die Melodie voll Gefühl und voll Poesie
To live for love means you'll never die
To live for love for all of your life
You'll see forever's here to stay
You'll see forever's here to stay
Forever's here to stay

Heaven Stood Still
Heaven Stood Still
Composer(s): Willy DeVille
Performer(s): Mink DeVille;
and various other artists
As a tear fades away
and the dawn dries a lover's eyes
No more tears, they're all gone
Just believe it will always be
My heart in your hand
knows that all this belongs to me
and like the child here I stay
while your heart sings inside of me
One dream of my live
One night in eternity
The wind whispered soft to me
And heaven stood still
One sigh of the dawn
Sweet instant of memory
One celestial rapsodie
And heaven stood still

Have A Word
Have A Word
Composer(s): Ian Dury; Gallagher; Rhys-Jones
Performer(s): Ian Dury
Gotta sign the rent book
Gotta do the laundry
Then there's the electric
The water and the gas
Haven't stopped moaning
Since we had the phone in
The television rental
Another bloody hass
Go up to the top of a very high mountain
Go up to the top of a fresh air hill
You can never stop when the money is counting
Worry till you drop, till you pay your bills
Got a rotten head-ache
Ready for a breakdown
The pressure of the pressure
Is more than I can bare
The awfulness is spreading
It's really done my head in
I think I've been selected
For more than my fair share
Go into the heart of the fresh air valley
Go and have a drink from the mountain stream
Go and have a word before you go doolally
Have a Dicky Bird with your self-esteem
Putting pen to paper
Applying for a loan
Ain't got no collateral
Nor's a cat in hell
The bailiff's on the knocker
I'm going off my rocker
And as regards contentment
I haven't had a smell
Go up to the top of a very high mountain
Go up to the top of a fresh air hill
You can never stop when the money is counting
Working till you drop, till you pay your bills
Go into the heart of the fresh air valley
Go and have a drink from the mountain stream
Go and have a word before you go doolally
Have a Dicky Bird with your self-esteem
Go up to the top of a very high mountain
Go up to the top of a fresh air hill
You can never stop when the money is counting
Worry till you drop, till you pay your bills
Go into the heart of the fresh air valley
Go and have a drink from the mountain stream
Go and have a word before you go doolally
Have a Dicky Bird with your self-esteem

Sharing a love that only few have ever known
Wine-coloured days warmed by the sun
Deep velvet nights when we are one
Speak softly, love so no one hears us but the sky
The vows of love we make will live until we die
My life is yours and all because
You came into my world with love so softly love
Wine-coloured days warmed by the sun
Deep velvet nights when we are one
Speak softly, love so no one hears us but the sky
The vows of love we make will live until we die
My life is yours and all because
You came into my world with love so softly love

William "Mickey" Stevenson
Performer(s): Marvin Gaye
(Backup singers: Heaven must have sent you, I know)
Her:
Every night I say a prayer
Before I go to sleep
Suddenly you were there
Your face so fine, your voice so sweet
In these arms of mine
I found you just in time
In this turn of the world
I was a lost and lonely girl
But then a miracle happened;
Heaven must have sent you, I know
(Yes I know)
I know (yes I know)
Him:
Funny how my empty heart
Used to feel like a heavy load
Suddenly you were there
Like a friend on a lonesome road
Right into these arms of mine
I found you, I found you just in time
'Cause I was a lonely man
Holding out my helpless hand
Then a miracle happened
Heaven must have sent you, I know
(Yes I know)
Both:
Our time is here now
Now matter how the world is around
In your arms I find
Some kind of love and peace of mind
'Cause a miracle happened;
Heaven must have sent you, I know
(Yes I know)

When the road gets dark and you can no longer see

Estoy sintiendo tu perfume embriagador
Y tus palabras susurrar a media voz
Y soy feliz al comprender
Que está llamando a mi puerta el amor
Por eso mi mundo es
Amanecer de un nuevo sol
Intensamente estoy viviendo la emoción
Que ha desbordado el volcán de tu ilusión
Y al escuchar tu corazón
Entre mis brazos lo he fundido con mi amor
Por eso hoy...
Nosotros somos el milagro del amor
Que ha de vivir eternamente entre los dos
Y al manantial de la ilusión
Del que bebemos solamente tú y yo

Heaven Only Knows
Heaven Only Knows
Composer(s): Paul Kennerley
Performer(s): Emmylou Harris
Every night it's the same
I feel your heart turn cold as rain
And know that you'll be gone again
I hear the front door close
You say you got to go downtown
I guess there's someone else you've found
So why you're still coming round
Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows just why loving you should make me cry
Make me feel like I could die
That's the way it goes
Heaven only ever sees
How love's made a fool of me
I guess that's how it's meant to be but
Heaven only knows
I've heard it said that talk is cheap
But still your words they cut so deep
Lay me crying in my sleep
And the pain just grows
I don't know who's right or wrong
But all we had is dead and gone
So why you keep me hanging on
Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows just why loving you should make me cry
Make me feel like I could die
That's the way it goes
Heaven only ever sees
How love's made a fool of me
I guess that's how it's meant to be but
Heaven only knows
I'm going to turn and walk away
There's nothing left for me to say
It wouldn't change things anyway
Though, I suppose
The love I gave was always true
Well, I don't know what else to do
And how I'll ever get over you
Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows just why loving you should make me cry
Make me feel like I could die
That's the way it goes
Heaven only ever sees
How love's made a fool of me
I guess that's how it's meant to be but
Heaven only knows

Não haverá nenhum adeus
Jamais sonhei ser tão feliz
Nós dois assim, num só coração
Fale baixinho
E só o céu vai nos ouvir
Diga que o nosso amor
Ninguém vai destruir
Se eu lhe dei a minha vida
Você me trouxe a paz
Que tanto procurei

Heaven On Their Minds
Heaven On Their Minds
Composer(s): Andrew Lloyd Webber; Tim Rice
Performer(s): Andrew Lloyd Webber;
and various other artists
Judas:
My mind is clearer now - at last all too well
I can see where we all soon will be
If you strip away the myth from the man
You will see where we all soon will be
Jesus! You've started to believe the things they say of you
You really do believe this talk of God is true
And all the good you've done will soon get swept away
You've begun to matter more than the things you say
Listen Jesus I don't like what I see
All I ask is that you listen to me
And remember - I've been your right hand man all along
You have set them all on fire
They think they've found the new Messiah
And they'll hurt you when they find they're wrong
I remember when this whole thing began
No talk of God then - we called you a man
And believe me - my admiration for you hasn't died
But every word you say today
Gets twisted round some other way
And they'll hurt you if they think you've lied
Nazareth your famous son should have stayed a great unknown
Like his father carving wood - he'd have made good
Tables, chairs and oaken chests would have suited Jesus best
He'd have caused nobody's harm - no-one alarm
Listen Jesus do you care for your race?
Don't you see we must keep in our place?
We are occupied - have you forgotten how put down we are?
I am frightened by the crowd
For we are getting much too loud
And they'll crush us if we go too far
Listen Jesus to the warning I give
Please remember that I want us to live
But it's sad to see our chances weakening with every hour
All your followers are blind
Too much heaven on their minds
It was beautiful but now it's sour
Yes it's all gone sour

Performer(s): Elvis Presley
Now once it was told to me
We're born with a magic key
It opens the door to miracles of Spring
It takes you to wishing wells
To ice cream and carousels
And yet this magic key won't unlock a thing
Unless... you have a happy, yeah, have a happy
Mmm, have a happy, warm smilin' face
Now start believin' in believin'
Let your address be Sunshine Place
There's love and there's joy untold
Much more than your heart can hold
It's there like the ring you grab on a merry-go-round
The world isn't half as grey
With friends on a rainy day
But people keep away when you wear a frown
You've got... to have a happy, yeah, have a happy
Have a happy, warm smiling face
Mmm, start believin' in believin'
Let your address be Sunshine Place
Let your address be Sunshine Place
Let your address be Sunshine Place

"Goin' up?" she said, uh-huh
Just as we were startin' to climb together
Ooh-ooh, lookin' up I said, "Uh-huh
Maybe I could see you tonight?"
She said "Never!"
Ooh-ooh, I was out of luck
But ten seconds later somehow
We got stuck in that elevator
Heaven on the 7th floor
(Hey baby)
Heaven on the 7th floor
(I ain't complainin')
But I've never been so high before
So please don't rescue me
Never set me free
Hey, hey, hey
"We're alone" I said, uh-huh
"Looks like we could be here all night together", ooh-ooh
"There's a phone" she said, uh-huh
"Gonna have us out in five minutes time whatever"
"Please could you make it ten" I told the operator
"I'm havin' so much fun in this elevator"
Heaven on the 7th floor
(Hey baby)
Heaven on the 7th floor
(I ain't complainin')
But I've never been so high before
So please don't rescue me
Never set me free
Hey, hey, hey
And as the Muzak played, sooner or later I knew
We'd fall in love in that elevator
Heaven on the 7th floor
(Hey baby)
Heaven on the 7th floor
(I ain't complainin')
But I've never been so high before
So please don't rescue me
Never set me free
Hey, hey, hey

Goodbye, I hate to see you go
But have a good time
So long, I'll miss you, dear, I know

Dance and sing, pretend that it's true love
Don't worry 'bout me
I know that tears will only drive you
Farther away
Just go, forget that I'm alive
It's your holiday
When you're tired of being reckless and carefree
Remember that I'll
Be waiting to welcome you home
So have a good time
When you're tired of being reckless and carefree
Remember that I'll
Be waiting to welcome you home
So have a good time
