You Forgot All The Words (While I Still Remember The Tune)
You Forgot All The Words (While I Still Remember The Tune)
Composer(s): Bernie Wayne - E.H. Hay
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra
Love was like a song
A lovely melody
Our hearts would sing along
In perfect harmony
But you forgot all the words
While I still remember the tune
Each time our lips would cling
I heard a serenade
Of love and youth and spring
Forever to be played
But you forgot all the words
While I still remember the tune
We used to dance
Instead of walk
We used to sing
Instead of talk
Why was our love song
That used to be
Only the start of the blues for me
But songs are funny things
They never really die
And so my hope still clings
That someday you will try
To just remember the words
For I still remember the tune
When lonely lights are lit
And midnight songs will start
Our song I must admit
Still fills my hopeful heart
So please remember the words
For I still remember the tune

Go knows I'm gonna
Walk in Jerusalem

High up in Jerusalem when I die
Hmm, when I get down to the river
I'm gonna stick my sword in the sand
For I spy the ol' ship of Zion
Who took a-many to the Promised Land
Way over in Buelah
Where there ain't no dying there
Where the saints shoutin' victory
Oh, they singin', Lord, everywhere
Way over in Buelah
I hear the voice of friends I've known
They been gone on, gone on to Glory
Well, well a long time ago
They been waitin'
They been watchin'
They been waitin' at the beautiful gates
And one day I'm gonna meet them
Oh, I'm gonna sing forever more
Way over in Buelah
I see the Captain beckoned to me
Well, he's callin' all God's chirrun'
Oh, to meet him on the Promised Land
God knows I'm gonna
Walk in Jerusalem
Talk in Jerusalem
Sing in Jerusalem
Be in Jerusalem
High up, oh, in Jerusalem
When I die, Oh yeah
Well, be in Jerusalem
Sing in Jerusalem
Shout in Jerusalem
Sing in Jerusalem
High up, oh, in Jerusalem

Walk Hand In Hand
Composer(s): Johnny Cowell
Performer(s): Andy Williams;
and various other artists
Walk hand in hand with me through all eternity
Have faith, believe in me, give me your hand
Love is a symphony of perfect harmony
When lovers such as we walk hand in hand
Be not afraid, for I am with you all the while
So lift your head up high and look toward the sky
Walk hand in hand with me, this is our destiny
No greater love could be, walk hand in hand
Walk with me
Be not afraid, for I am with you all the while
So lift your head up high and look up to the sky
Walk hand in hand with me, this is our destiny
No greater love could be, walk hand in hand
Walk with me

A Souvenir Of London
A Souvenir Of London
((Danish Version: En Souvenir Fra Malmø (by Procol Harum))
Composer(s): Gary Brooker - Keith Reid
Performer(s): Procol Harum
Bought a souvenir in London
Got to hide it from my mom
Can't declare it at the Customs
But I'll have to take it home
Tried to keep it confidential
But the news is leaking out
Got a souvenir in London
There's a lot of it about
Yes, I found a bit of London
I'd like to lose it quick
Got to show it to my doctor
'Cause it isn't going to shrink
Want to keep it confidential
But the truth is leaking out
Got a souvenir in London
There's a lot of it about

Walk By Yourself
Walk By Yourself
Composer(s): Pete Agnew; Ronnie Leahy;
Dan McCafferty; Jimmy Murrison
Performer(s): Nazareth
Walk by yourself, I've offered you my hand in friendship
You live alone; don't want to see in my house
You never contend, but you get your seat at ringside
You say you're self-made; least you're taking the blame
You used to take a chance, I remember
You used to roll the bones, seems like a long time ago
When the chips were down, you left me
At the rendezvous, I was on my own
Chorus:
Excuse me if I make you nervous
But I could never put my trust in a visionary
Phone's dead when you call room service
You're a troublemaker, you're a mercenary
Don't wear no black dress
But you're a widow maker
You want the money
Better see your soul, now you're reaping a sore harvest
When the horn sounds, your house it's gonna be Jericho
In the superbowl, your quarterback is broken
When the day it comes, see me laughing
Chorus
You make me n,n,n,n,nervous
Walk by yourself, I've offered you my hand in friendship
You live alone; don't want to see in my house
You never contend, but you get your seat at ringside
You say you're self-made; at least you're taking the blame
Chorus

The Southern Sky
The Southern Sky
Composer(s): Killing Joke
Performer(s): Killing Joke
Peace at the break of dawn, mist on the shore
Time is healing everything, time is standing still
A voice, that is singing in my head
With the breeze, the waves, the sea
As we start to move as one
Down from the hills, into the forest
Walking on sand, into the water
I've been dreaming - islands on my mind
Down from the hills, into the forest
Walking on sand, into the water
I've been dreaming - under a southern sky
Bright are the scented flowers, many shades of green
Water from the purest spring - man is finding wealth
Down by the clearing in glades of fern and palm
Invocations rising from servants of the Star
And walk with the breeze, the waves, the earth
As we move in unison
All the seeds blowing further to the south
Continuity when all's said and done
All the seeds blowing further to the south
Continuity when all's said and done

Walk Between Raindrops
Walk Between Raindrops
Composer(s): Donald Fagen
Performer(s): Donald Fagen;
and various other artists
A shadow crossed the blue Miami sky
As we hit the causeway by the big hotels
We fought now I can't remember why
After all the words were said
and tears were gone
We vowed we'd never say goodbye
When we kissed
we could hear the sound of thunder
As we watched the regulars rush the big hotels
We kissed again
as the showers swept the Florida shore
You opened your umbrella
But we walked
between the raindrops back to your door
In my dreams I can hear the sound of thunder
I can see the causeway by the big hotels
That happy day we'll find each other on that
Florida shore
You'll open your umbrella
And we'll walk
between the raindrops back to your door

A Sound I Never Heard
A Sound I Never Heard
Composer(s): F. Carillo - G. Kooymans
Performer(s): Golden Earring
I'm kicking down the road
I got a top hat on
With my head in overload
I heard a radio song
There was something in the air
I think I know it well
Watchin' everybody stare
You know I never tell
You knocked me to the floor
With a sound I never heard
With a sound I never heard
I was walking down the street
Saw you sneakin' out your house
Know who you're gonna meet
In the criminal hour
Saw you slip right through the door
You whispered just a word
Then you knocked me to the floor
With a sound I've never heard

Walk Away Renee
Walk Away Renee
Composer(s): Michael Brown; Bob Calilli; Tony Sansone
Performer(s): Left Banke;
and various other artists
And when I see the sign that points one way
The lot we used to pass by every day
Just walk away Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
The empty sidewalks on my block are not the same
You're not to blame
From deep inside the tears I'm forced to cry
From deep inside the pain I chose to hide
Just walk away Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
Now as the rain beats down upon my weary eyes
For me it cries
Your name and mine inside a heart upon a wall
Still find a way to haunt me though they're so small
Just walk away Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
Now as the rain beats down upon my weary eyes
For me it cries
Just walk away Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
The empty sidewalks on my block are not the same
You're not to blame

A Sort Of Homecoming
A Sort Of Homecoming
Composer(s): Bono - U2
Performer(s): U2
And you know it's time to go
Through the sleet and driving snow
Across the fields of mourning
Light in the distance
And you hunger for the time
Time to heal, desire, time
And your earth moves beneath
Your own dream landscape
Oh, oh, oh...
On borderland we run...
I'll be there
I'll be there...
Tonight
A high road
A high road out from here
The city walls are all come down
The dust, a smoke screen all around
See faces ploughed like fields that once
Gave no resistance
And we live by the side of the road
On the side of a hill
As the valley explode
Dislocated, suffocated
The land grows weary of its own
Oh, oh, oh...on borderland we run...
And still we run
We run and don't look back
I'll be there
I'll be there
Tonight
Tonight
I'll be there tonight...I believe
I'll be there...somehow
I'll be there...tonight
Tonight
The wind will crack in winter time
This bomb-blast lightning waltz
No spoken words, just a scream...
Tonight we'll build a bridge
Across the sea and land
See the sky, the burning rain
She will die and live again
Tonight
And your heart beats so slow
Through the rain and fallen snow
Across the fields of mourning
Light's in the distance
Oh don't sorrow, no don't weep
For tonight, at last
I am coming home
I am coming home

Walk Away From Love
Walk Away From Love
Composer(s): Charles Kipps
Performer(s): David Ruffin;
and various other artists
(I'm gonna walk away from a love)
(gonna walk away, gonna walk away)
(I'm gonna walk away from a love)
(gonna walk away, gonna walk away)
(gonna walk away, gonna walk away)
It's not that I don't love you
You know how much I do
And it's not that I've found someone
To take the place of you
It's just the fear that lives within me
Everytime you touch my hand
And a dread that shakes my body
That even I don't understand
So I'm leaving
(I'm leaving, yes I am)
This time I'm playin' it smart
(I'm leaving, yes I am)
I'm gonna walk away from a love
(walk away from love)
Before love breaks my heart
(I'm gonna walk away from a love)
(gonna walk away, gonna walk away)
(gonna walk away, gonna walk away)
Ooh, you're clinging to me tighter
Then you ever have before, I don't understand it
But I know it's gonna take everything I got
To keep walkin' out the door
But those arms you got around me
We'll let me go someday
And I'd rather leave you holding on
Than pushing me away
So I'm leaving
(I'm leaving, yes I am)
This time I'm playin' it smart
(I'm leaving, yes I am)
I'm gonna walk away from a love
(walk away from love)
Before love breaks my heart
(I'm gonna walk away from a love)
(gonna walk away, gonna walk away)
Oh baby
It's not that I don't want you,
You know how much I do, oh baby
(I'm gonna walk away from a love)
(gonna walk away, gonna walk away)
(gonna walk away, gonna walk away)
I'm leaving, baby
(I'm gonna walk away from a love)
(gonna walk away, gonna walk away)
This time I'm playin' it smart
Oh, don't break my heart
(gonna walk away, gonna walk away)
Oh, I'm walkin' away baby
(I'm gonna walk away from a love)
(gonna walk away, gonna walk away)

A Song To Mama
A Song To Mama
Composer(s): Helen Carter - June Carter Cash - Glenn Phillip Jones
Performer(s): The Carter Family
Dear, dear Mama, now that we're older
We can see the load on your tired old shoulders
Mama you're a trooper, Mama you're a soldier
Mama, you mean a lot to me
She always got me out of bed early Sunday morn'
And took me out to church where I could learn about Lord
Mama tried to tell me how my life was gonna be
But I was young and wild, and it was hard for me to see
Dear Mama, now that we're older
We can see the load on your tired old shoulders
Mama you're a trooper, Mama you're a soldier
Mama, you mean a lot to me
(Mama, you always taught me right from wrong when I was growin' up
And it's a pity that most people like me have to try everything for themselves
I realize now that you always knew just what you were talkin' about
And mama for all that hard work you did
And for the sacrifices you made for us
I just wanna say, thanks a lot)
Dear Mama, now that we are older
We can see the load on your tired old shoulders
Mama you're a trooper, Mama you're a soldier
Mama, you mean a lot to me
Mama, you mean a lot to me

Walk Away
Walk Away
Composer(s): Elmer Bernstein; Carolyn Leigh
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra;
and various other artists
Walk away, please go
Before you throw your life away
A life that I could share for just a day
We should have met some years ago
For your sake I say
Walk away, just go
Walk away, and live
A life that's full
With no regret
Don't look back at me
Just try to forget
Why build a dream that cannot come true
So be strong, reach the stars now
Walk away, walk on
If I heard your voice
I'd beg you to stay
So don't say a word
Just run, run away
Goodbye my love
My tears will fall
Now that you've gone
I can't help but cry
But I must go on
I'm sad that I have been searching so long
You, I love you but told you
Walk away, walk on, walk on

Song I'd Like To Sing
Song I'd Like To Sing
Composer(s): Kris Kristofferson
Performer(s): Kris Kristofferson & Rita Coolidge
(Na Na Na Na Na Na Na....)
There's a song I'd like to sing
Do you know the song I mean?
It don't always sound the same
But it's always good to sing
Maybe it don't mean a thing
It's a pretty little tune
It's a song I'd like to sing
And I'd love to sing with you
And we can get to know each other
Like a sister and a brother
Like a father and a mother
Like a woman and a man
We can sing along together
Just enyoying 'til it's over
It don't need to last forever
If we want it to it can
(Na Na Na Na Na Na Na....)

Walk And Talk It
Composer(s): Lou Reed
Performer(s): Lou Reed
I got horrors in my luney tunes
I got dreams and you do, too
I got ten wheel drive, pick you up into your ears
I got retake carbine and in my eyelids gear
I got no one to love and no one to fear
You better walk it, and talk it less you loose that beat
You better loose yourself, mama
And rock yourself right off of your feet
If you're moving too fast, don't you want it to last
You better walk it, talk it
You better walk it as you talk less you loose that beat
I got dimes in my shoes, real nice
I got bells that are laid on ice
I got dreams, let me mix it with a little gin
I got cruel when I told you woman, I'm hard
But me is the one thing baby, you ain't got
You better walk it, and talk it less you loose that beat
You better loose yourself, mama
And rock yourself right off of your feet
Yeah, if you're moving too fast, don't you want it to last
You better walk it, talk it
You better walk it as you talk less you loose that beat
You better walk it, and talk it less you loose that beat
You better loose yourself, mama
And rock yourself right off of your feet
Yeah, if you're moving too fast, now don't you want it to last
You better walk it, talk it
You better walk it as you talk less you loose that beat
Ah - ha - ha

A Song For You (Leon Russell)
A Song For You
((Italian Version: Quasi Come Musica (by Mina) - 1975))
Composer(s): Leon Russell
First release by: Leon Russell - 1970
Covered by multiple other artists
I've been so many places in my life and time
I've sung a lot of songs I've made some bad rhyme
I've acted out my love in stages
With ten thousand people watching
But we're alone now and I'm singing this song for you
I know your image of me is what I hope to be
I've treated you unkindly but darlin' can't you see
There's no one more important to me
Darlin' can't you please see through me
Cause we're alone now and I'm singing this song for you
You taught me precious secrets of the truth witholding nothing
You came out in front and I was hiding
But now I'm so much better and if my words don't come together
Listen to the melody cause my love is in there hiding
I love you in a place where there's no space or time
I love you for in my life you are a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singing this song for you
You taught me precious secrets of the truth witholding nothing
You came out in front and I was hiding
But now I'm so much better and if my words don't come together
Listen to the melody cause my love is in there hiding
I love you in a place where there's no space or time
I love you for in my life you are a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singing this song for you
We were alone and I was singing this song for you

Quasi Come Musica
Quasi Come Musica
((Adapted from: A Song For You (by Leon Russell) - 1970))
Composer(s): Leon Russell - Daiano - Gino Paoli
Performer(s): Mina - 1975
Se fossi solamente
un'abitudine
il caldo che ti resta
dopo che il sole va
e nuvole che il vento unisce
la sbronza che non può passare
potrei davvero io
non amarti più
Se fossi come un sogno
che non ricordi più
fiore dentro il libro
di matematica
la quiete dopo la tempesta
stanca fine di una festa
potrei davvero io non amarti più
Ma tu non sei mai niente
non somigli proprio a niente
sei fatto per me
ma non so come
Sei sempre molto meglio
di quel che mi viene in mente
quasi come musica
La tua vita sì è insieme a me
Ma non so come dire
quello che c'è tra noi
cercando posso dire
le frasi che tu vuoi
ma non sarà abbastanza
io non so proprio vivere senza
quasi una musica
la vita insieme a te
Quasi una musica
la vita insieme a te
