Spring In Maine


Spring In Maine
Composer(s): Steve Allen - Carolyn Leigh
Performer(s): Margaret Whiting
and multiple other artists



I remember Spring in Maine
The gust of rain, that country lane, and you
I remember fragrant pines
That bear the signs of Valentine's we drew

How you kissed me
And how we laughed those windy afternoons
Racing on the dunes
Like a pair of loons

I recall what might have been
And I recall the pain of coming back another year
To find that Springtime in the State of Maine
Is mainly a state of mind

How you kissed me
And how we laughed those windy afternoons
Racing on the dunes
Like a pair of loons

I recall what might have been
And I recall the pain of coming back another year
To find that Springtime in the State of Maine
Is mainly a state of mind

Helplessly Hoping


Helplessly Hoping
Composer(s): Stephen Stills
Performer(s): Crosby, Stills & Nash;
and various other artists



Helplessly hoping
Her harlequin hovers nearby
Awaiting a word
Gasping at glimpses
Of gentle true spirit
He runs, wishing he could fly
Only to trip at the sound of good-bye

Wordlessly watching
He waits by the window
And wonders
At the empty place inside
Heartlessly helping himself to her bad dreams
He worries
Did he hear a good-bye? Or even hello?

They are one person
They are two alone
They are three together
They are for each other

Stand by the stairway
You'll see something
Certain to tell you confusion has its cost
Love isn't lying
It's loose in a lady who lingers
Saying she is lost
And choking on hello

They are one person
They are two alone
They are three together
They are for each other

Monts Et Merveilles


Monts Et Merveilles
Composer(s): Hocine Hallaf
First performance by: Louisa Baileche - 2003



Rien n'est plus comme avant
Depuis qu'on s'est perdu
Les rivières, l'océan
Toutes les mers se sont tues
Et la terre, et la terre
Pour moi ne tourne plus
J'interroge le ciel
Comme un ange déçu

Oh mon amour
Où es-tu mon amour?

J'ai connu la joie et puis la douleur
J'étais avec toi, je suis sans demeure
Je sais qu'il faudrait ne plus en parler
Au moins essayer un peu d'oublier

On s'était promis des monts et merveilles
Aucun jour de pluie, seulement du soleil
Je sais qu'il faudrait ne plus en parler
Et moi, j'ai pas fini de t'aimer

Oui, je connais mon coeur
Je le sais à l'affût
Un souvenir, même un leurre
Et tout le sang reflux
Et la terre, et la terre
Pour moi ne tourne plus
Je suis nue et sans ailes
Comme un ange déchu

Oh mon amour
Où es-tu mon amour?

J'ai connu la joie et puis la douleur
J'étais avec toi, je suis sans demeure
Je sais qu'il faudrait ne plus en parler
Au moins essayer un peu d'oublier

On s'était promis des monts et merveilles
Aucun jour de pluie, seulement du soleil
Je sais qu'il faudrait ne plus en parler
Au moins essayer un peu d'oublier

Les monts et merveilles
Seulement du soleil
Ne plus en parler
Un peu oublier

Des monts et merveilles
Seulement du soleil
Ne plus en parler
Et moi j'ai pas fini de t'aimer

Helpless Dancer


Helpless Dancer
Composer(s): Pete Townsend
Performer(s): The Who



[Roger's theme]
When a man is running from his boss
Who hold a gun that fires "cost"
And people die from being cold
Or left alone because they're old
And bombs are dropped on fighting cats
And children's dreams are run with rats
If you complain you disappear
Just like the lesbians and queers
No one can love without the grace
Of some unseen and distant face
And you get beaten up by blacks
Who though they worked still got the sack
And when your soul tells you to hide
Your very right to die denied
And in the battle on the streets
You fight computers and receipts
And when a man is trying to change
But only causes further pain
You realize that all along
Something in us going wrong...

You stop dancing

Spring Fever


Spring Fever
Composer(s): Fields - McHugh - Shirl Milete
Performer(s): Loretta Lynn



Last night he took me in his arms
And held me tenderly
He said: "I don't know what's got into you
"But I'm lovin' what I see"
I hid my shame and tried to say
The words I longed dreamed of
But instead of saying: "Set me free"
I whispered: "I'm in love"

I said: "I guess it's Spring fever in the middle of Winter
"I hear bird singin', an' I feel the warm sunshine too
I said: "I guess it's Spring fever in the middle of Winter
"That makes the warm of glowing love"
But I just couldn't tell him it was someone new

I tried to make you understand
The reasons I can't go
You love is fresh and new, but his love's true
It's had time to grow
And even though he may no longer
Keep me satisfied
Don't you know he's still got Spring and Fall
And Summer on his side

I said: "I guess it's Spring fever in the middle of Winter
"I hear bird singin', an' I feel the warm sunshine too
I said: "I guess it's Spring fever in the middle of Winter
"That makes the warm of glowing love"
But I just couldn't tell him it was someone new

Helpless Automation


Helpless Automation
Composer(s): Greg Ham
Performer(s): Men At Work



I stay in my room
All alone in the gloom
What need I of light?
Machines they can see in the night
And I feel no pain
Metal heart and a metal brain
But something is wrong
'cause I still feel that signal coming in so

I stand at your door
I guess I'll wait a moment more
Your hall light comes on
And now my turn to fire upon
But I wheel away
Defer my plight, for another day
To dream of your face
But a video scren takes its place

Hey, oh it's true
I'm a helpless automaton
Make an ultimatum to you
Hey, it's true
Machin'ry in my pocket, I've even got a docket from you

I went to the man, I told him a robot is what I am
But he just smiled, said I was a fractious child
Distrusted not Rusted
That's why I feel so disgusted
But I know he's wrong, 'cause I haven't felt this way for very long

Hey, it's true,
I'm a helpless automaton, make an ultimatum to you
Hey, it's true
Machin'ry in my pocket, I've even got a docket from you
It's true
I'm a helpless automaton, make an ultimatum to you
It's true
Machin'ry in my pocket, I've even got a docket from you
From you
From you
From you

I'm Not Afraid To Move On


I'm Not Afraid To Move On
Composer(s): Arve Furset - VJ Strøm
First performance by: Jostein Hasselgård - 2003



One moment out of time
Someone finds a secret waiting behind
Knowing there's an end to a glory
End to a story so good, so divine

Heart, listen to your beating
Never gonna stop unless there's a doubt
Never speak to someone that knows you
More than yourself and the ghost that you hide

'Cause I'm in love with a beautiful girl
She's the one from the magical world
And I hold her now, when the rain starts to fall
I'm not afraid to move on

Lay down with someone strange
Dare to be the same, as always in time
Slowly seek the end and its glory
Worry to see if it's gone deep inside

'Cause I'm in love with a beautiful girl
She's the one from the magical world
And I hold her now, when the rain starts to fall
I'm not afraid (I'm not afraid)
I'm not afraid to move on

I'm alone when the ghosts start to haunt
I'm alone, but I know

I'm in love with a beautiful girl
She's the one from the magical world
And I hold her now, when the rain starts to fall
I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid to move on

Helpless


Helpless
Composer(s): Neil Young
Performer(s): Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young



There's a town in South Ontario
Whose dream comfort men redisperse
And in my mind I still need a place to go
All my changes were there
Blue, blue windows behind the stars
Yellow moon on the rise
Big birds flying across the sky
Throwing shadows on our eyes

Leave us helpless, helpless, helpless
They can still hear me now
The chains are locked and tied across the door
They sing with me somehow

Blue, blue windows behind the stars
Yellow moon on the rise
Big birds flying across the sky
Throwing shadows on our eyes

Leave us helpless, helpless, helpless
Helpless, helpless, helpless
Helpless, helpless, helpless
Helpless, helpless, helpless
Helpless, helpless, helpless.....

Spring Can Really Hang You Up The Most


Spring Can Really Hang You Up The Most
Composer(s): Tommy Wolf - Fran Landesman
First performance by: Tommy Wolf - 1955
Covered by multiple other artists



Once I was a sentimental thing
Throw my heart away each Spring
Now a Spring romance
Hasn't got a chance
Promised my first dance to Winter
All I've got to show's a splinter
For my little fling

Spring, this year has got me feeling like a horse
That never left the post
I lay in my room
Starring up at the ceiling
Spring can really hang you up the most

Morning kiss wakes trees and flower
And to them my life
To drink a toast I walk in the park
Just to kill those lonely hours
Spring can really hang you up the most

All afternoon
Those birds tweet-a-tweet I know their tune
This is love this is it
Heard it before
And I know the score
And I decide that love is a bore
Love seem sure around the new year
Now it's April

Love is just a ghost
Spring arrived on time
But what became of you, dear
Spring can really hang you up the most
Spring can really hang you up the most

Spring is here
There's no mistaken
Robins build their nest from coast to coast
My heart tries the same
So they won't hear it breaking
Spring can really hang you up the most

College boys are riding somewhere
... tender passion there it grows
But I'm on the shelf with last years easter bonnet
Spring can really hang you up the most

Love came my way
I'm holding the last
We had our day
Now that's all in the past
Spring came along
A season of song
For love's sweet promise
But something went wrong
Doctor's once prescribed a tonic
Sulfur and molasses was the dose
Didn't help me a bit
My condition must be chronic
Spring can really hang you up the most

All alone, the party's over
Winter was a gracious host
But when you keep praying
For snow to hide the clover
Spring can really hang you up the most

Help!


Help!
Composer(s): John Lennon; Paul McCartney
Performer(s): The Beatles



Help, I need somebody
Help, not just anybody
Help, you know I need someone, help

When I was younger, so much younger than today
I never needed anybody's help in any way
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self assured
Now I find I've changed my mind and opened up the doors

Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being round
Help me, get my feet back on the ground
Won't you please, please help me

And now my life has changed in oh so many ways
My independence seems to vanish in the haze
But every now and then I feel so insecure
I know that I just need you like I've never done before

Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being round
Help me, get my feet back on the ground
Won't you please, please help me

When I was younger, so much younger than today
I never needed anybody's help in any way
But now these daya are gone, I'm not so self assured
Now I find I've changed my mind and opened up the doors

Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being round
Help me, get my feet back on the ground
Won't you please, please help me, help me, help me, oh

Never Let Me Go


Never Let Me Go
Composer(s): Raymond B. Evans - Jay Livingston
Performer(s): Dinah Washington - 1956
and multiple other artists



Never let me go
love me much too much
if you let me go
life would loose its touch

what would I be without you?
there's no place for me without you

never let me go
I'd be so lost if you went away
there'd be a thousand hours in the day
without you I know

because of one caress my world was overturned
at the very start all my bridges burned
by my flaming heart
you'd never leave me would you
you couldn't hurt me could you

never let me go
please never let me

because of one caress my world was overturned
at the very start all my bridges burned by my flaming heart
you'd never leave me would you
you couldn't hurt me could you?
never let me go
never let me go
never...let me go...

Help Yourself


Help Yourself
Performer(s): Tom Jones



Love is like candy on a shelf
You want to taste and help yourself
The sweetest things are there for you
Help yourself, take a few
That's what I want you to do
We're always told repeatedly
The very best in life is free
And if you want to prove it's true
Baby I'm telling you
This is what you should do
Just help yourself to my lips
To my arms just say the word, and they are yours
Just help yourself to the love
In my heart your smile has opened up the door
The greatest wealth that exists in the world
Could never buy what I can give
Just help yourself to my lips
To my arms, and then lets really start to live
Allllllllll right
Yeah
My heart has love enough for two
More than enough for me and you
I'm rich with love, a millionaire
I've so much, it's unfair
Why don't you take a share
Just help yourself to my lips
To my arms just say the word, and they are yours
Just help yourself to the love
In my heart your smile has opened up the door
The greatest wealth that exists in the world
Could never buy what I can give
So help yourself to my lips, to my arms
And then lets really start to live
Just help yourself to my lips
To my arms just say the word, and they are yours
Just help yourself to the love
In my heart your smile............

Never Let You Go (Mando)


Never Let You Go
Composer(s): Mando - Teri Siganos
First performance by: Mando - 2003



I don't know what I'm going through
Close my eyes, still see you inside
Everything reminds me of you
I could never let you go

I can't hide my feelings at all
I give you love, sometimes it's so hard
Without you I know why I would fall
I could never let you go

I would cry for you
And I'd lie for you
I would lay my life
On the line

I can't hide from you
Then I'd die for you
But I'd never let you go

What we share keeps me alive
For you there's nothing
I would deny
All I know is I want you so
I could never let you go

I would cry for you
And I'd lie for you
I would lay my life
On the line

I can't hide from you
Then I'd die for you
But I'd never let you go

(Cry for you)
Cry for you
(Cry...)

I would cry for you
And I'd lie for you
I would lay my life
On the line

I can't hide from you
Reach the sky for you
But I'd never let you go
Never let you go

Spring Again
Composer(s): Kenneth Gamble - Leon Huff

It's Spring again
I can hear the birds sing again
See the flowers start to bud
See young people fall in love

Well, it's Spring again
Thunder showers, they are here again
An extra hour for me and you
To spend together

Pretty colours are everywhere
Mother Nature, she still cares

Well, it's Spring again
The grass is turning green again
The warm air feels so good
Summer's not too far away

Pretty colours, they are everywhere
Mother Nature, she still cares

I said it's Spring again
I can hear the birds sing again
See the flowers start to bud
And I see young people fall in love

I said it's Spring again
And the grass is turning green again
The warm air feels so good
Summer's not too far away

And I said it's Spring again
Time for us to do all the things again
That we love to do in Spring again
Uh-ah-hah, uh-ah-hah, uu-ah-hah

I said it's Spring again
Time to hear the birds sing again
See the flowers bud again
Uh-ah-hah

It's Spring again
Spring again, Spring again, Spring again
I said it's Spring again

Another hour for us, yeah
To do all the things we love
Walking through a park
Holding hands under the moonlight

And I said it's Spring again
Aahhh, I said it's Spring again
Don't it make you feel good
When you can take off your Winter clothes

Help Somebody


Help Somebody
Composer(s): Maurice White; Donald Whitehead; Wade Flemons
Performer(s): Earth, Wind & Fire



No man should have
face to face
His problems alone, alone, alone
Reach out and help the weak man
Make him strong, strong, strong
Now I want to help somebody
I'd like to help you, you, you
Now don't that make you want to
Help somebody too, too, too

[Chorus:]
The love you give
Might help somebody live
So give yourself
Go out and help somebody else
Your helping hand
Will make you a better man
Do wah, do way, let love prevail
Reach out and help somebody
Reach out and help somebody

If we all stand together
We'll all stand tall, tall, tall
We wouldn't let each other
Tumble and fall, fall, fall
Now let's reach down together
And lift somebody up, up, up
Give a little love and kindness
It won't take much, much, much

[Chorus]

Reach out your hand and help somebody today
[Repeat to end]
