Don't Let Him Go


Don't Let Him Go Composer(s): Kevin Cronin Performer(s): REO Speedwagon



So you figure that you've Got him all figured out He's a sweet talking stud Who can melt a girl's heart with his pout He's the kind of lover that the ladies dream about Oh, yes he is He's got plenty of cash He's got plenty of friends He drives women wild And he drives off in a Mercedes Benz He's got a long wick with a flame at both ends He's hot But don't let him go Just give him a chance to grow Take it easy take it slow But don't let him go Don't let him go He makes you so angry He makes you so sore The wait may be worth it But how can you wait anymore? When you're wondering what you're waiting for? Baby, I don't know But don't let him go Just give him a chance to grow Take it easy take it slow But don't let him go Don't let him go

Avec Ces Yeux-Là


Avec Ces Yeux-Là
Composer(s): Eddie Barclay - Michel Legrand - Charles Aznavour
First release by: Charles Aznavour - 1961



Avec ces yeux-là
Et ce regard-là
Tu as changé le courant de ma vie
Avec ces yeux-là
Oh! qu'as-tu fait là
Là dans mon coeur qui s'ennuie
Et crie

Pour toi
Qui est mon pain de chaque jour
Toi
L'unique objet de mon amour
Toi
Qui marche en semant ton éclat
Tu ne vois pas
Avec ces yeux-là
Tout le bonheur
Que tu pourrais verser dans mon coeur
Que d'inconscience
Que d'insouciance
Il y a dans ces yeux-là

Avec ces yeux-là
Et ce regard-là
Tu as changé le courant de ma vie
Avec ces yeux-là
Oh! qu'as-tu fait là
Là dans mon coeur qui s'ennuie
Et crie
Pour toi

Avec un goût de désespoir
Toi
En qui j'ai mis tout mes espoirs
Toi
Tu regardes et ne vois rien
Mais je sais bien
Qu'avec ces yeux-là
Et ce regard-là
Tu peux donner
Plus d'amour qu'on en puisse espérer
Mais tu promènes
Quoi qu'il advienne
Ta jeunesse et ne sais pas
Que tu as pris mes joies
Rien qu'avec ces yeux-là

Don't Let Her See Me Cry


Don't Let Her See Me Cry
Composer(s): Lefty Frizzell
Performer(s): Lefty Frizzell



Won't you tell telephone me that she can go I set her free
For I don't want to say goodbye and let her see me cry
Tell to her just any old thing say I went somewhere the same
For I just can't look her in the eyes and let her see me cry
I don't want to see or talk to anyone I know until she's gone until she goes
So you see the reason why I want you to tell a lie
And just for me say goodbye and don't let her see me cry

I don't want to see...

Avec Ce Soleil


Avec Ce Soleil
Composer(s): Jacques Larue - M. Philippe-Gerard
Performer(s): Edith Piaf



Avec ce soleil, on avait envie
De ne pas parler
De boire de la vie
A petites goulées
Sous le ciel superbe
Le long du talus, mâchant un brin d'herbe
Et jupe collée, elle regardait
D'un air triomphant
Ce jeune homme imberbe
Ou encore presqu'enfant
Qui la désirait
Il aurait fallu presque rien, peut-être
Un geste de lui
Un sourire d'elle qui lui dise "viens"
Il aurait fallu presque rien, peut-être
Qu'un oiseau s'enfuie
Avec un bruit d'ailes pour que tout soit bien...

Pour que par-dessus le toit de l'usine
Le long des murs gris
Pour que par-dessus la route voisine
Et ses pavés gris
Pour que par-dessus toutes les collines
Pour que par-dessus toutes les forêts
Pour que monte au ciel, sans cloches et sans noces
Un amour de gosses
Qui purifierait...
Mais c'était déjà deux enfants durcis
Qui ne croyaient plus d'avoir à se dire
Que les mots des grands...
Que la vie déjà, broyait sans merci
Qui ne savaient plus ni rêver, ni rire
Cœur indifférent...

Et ce jour encore
Le long du talus
Le coquelicots avec les bleuets
En vain attendirent
Une main cruelle
Qui les cueillerait...

Avec


Avec
Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - Franck Pourcel
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour



Avec ton sourire au coin de tes lèvres
Avec ton regard comme rempli de fièvre
Tu sembles sortir des mains d'un orfièvre
Et je ne peux que t'aimer mon amour

Avec dans ton cœur des points vulnérables
Avec les fureurs dont tu es capable
Tu es tour à tour l'ange ou bien le diable
Qui vient troubler mes nuits et mes jours

Ceux qui disent des sottises
Et prédisent notre échec
Je les ignore et t'adore
Plus encore avec

Avec tes façon de fille à la page
Avec tes curieux écarts de langage
Le peu de printemps qui compte ton âge
Je voudrais bien te garder toujours

Avec dans ta tête un grain de folie
Avec dans ton corps le goût de la vie
J'ai trouvé en toi toute une harmonie
Et je ne peux que t'aimer mon amour

Avec ta pudeur mêlée d'indécence
Avec ta candeur frôlant l'inconsciense
Ta maturité si près de lénfance
Je voudrais bien te garder toujours

Avec tes chagrins
Tes éclats de voix
Ton rire enfantin
Ta manière à toi
De parler soudain
De n'importe quoi
Et qui vont si bien
Avec toi

Don't Let Go (Foreigner)


Don't Let Go Composer(s): Lou Gramm - Mick Jones Performer(s): Foreigner



Another long day, another long night
I try to make it home before it gets light
I'm working hard so some day we can play
When I try to explain, you just push me away
Don't push me away

You say I don't spend enough time with you
Or take an interest in the things you do
We call it quits almost every other day
And the rare times we're going strong
We let our pride get in the way
Seems like it's always in the way

But don't let go, don't let our love go
Don't let go, just let our love grow
Sometimes we might drift away, don't let our love go
But don't let go of our love when it feels right

This kind of life can put us both to the test
But it's not a question of who knows best
Our love's a ship that has its sails a little torn
All we need to do is sew 'em up
And we can weather the storm
Gonna ride that storm

So don't let go, don't let our love go
Don't let go, just let our love grow
Sometimes we might drift away, don't let our love go
But don't let go

No no, don't let go, don't let our love go
Oh don't let go, just let our love grow
Sometimes we might drift away, don't let our love go
But don't let go of our love when it feels right

I don't see you for days
When you leave me in the dark
My imagination runs away
Just throw me a line
And I'll, I'll still hold on
I'll still hold on, I'll still hold on
And I won't let go

Don't let go, don't let our love go
Baby don't let go, just let our love grow
Don't let our love fade away, don't let our love go
Don't let go of our love when it feels right

Oh no, don't let our love go
Don't let go, just let our love grow
Sometimes we might drift away, don't let our love go
But don't let go of our love when it feels right

Ave Noturna


Ave Noturna
Composer(s): Raimundo Fagner
Performer(s): Raimundo Fagner



Nenhuma ave noturna tão triste não pode ser
eu sou igual ao deserto onde ninguém quer viver
eu sou a pedra de ponta areia quente nos dedos
eu sou chocalho de cobra incêndio no arvoredo
eu sou vereda de espinhos seca flor no joazeiro
fogueira do meio dia eu sou o tiro certeiro
Nenhuma ave deserta Noturna não pode ser
eu sou igual ao tão triste onde ninguém quer viver

Don't leave me this way
I can't survive, I can't stay alive
Without you love, oh baby
Don't leave me this way
I can't exist, I will surely miss
Your tender kiss
So don't leave me this way

Oh baby, my heart is full of love and desire for you
So come on down and do what you've got to do
You started this fire down in my soul
Now can't you see it's burning, out of control
So come down and stisfy the need in me
Cos only your good loving can set me free

Don't leave me this way
I don't understand how I'm at your command
So baby please don''t leave me this way

Don't leave me this way
Cos I can't exist
I will surely miss your tender kiss
So don't leave me this way

Oh baby, my heart is full of love and desire for you
So come on down and do what you've got to do
You started this fire down in my soul
Now can't you see it's burning, out of control
So come down and stisfy the need in me
Cos only your good loving can set me free

Don't leave me this way
I can't survive, I can't stay alive
Without you love, oh baby
Don't leave me this way
I can't exist, I will surely miss
Your tender kiss
So don't leave me this way

Oh baby, my heart is full of love and desire for you
So come on down and do what you've got to do
You started this fire down in my soul
Now can't you see it's burning, out of control
So come down and stisfy the need in me
Cos only your good loving can set me free

Ave Maria Norma


Ave Maria Norma
Performer(s): Mireille Mathieu



Enfant béni des dieux d'Athènes
Au grands yeux sombres des icônes
Un roi a fait de vous sa reine
Quant au soleil la mer se donne
J'entends les trompettes d'Aïda
Madame Butterfly je vous aime
Chantez moi encore la Tosca
Menez moi dans votre Bohème

Ave Maria ave Maria
Ave Maria Maria Norma

Comme un oiseau de nuit malade
L'Opéra meurt d'amours chimères
Comme un bateau loin de sa rade
Pour une diva et s'entrouvert
Manon Lescaut s'est fiancée
Un soir d'hiver belle alseste
Et Turandot s'en va danser
Une étonnante chanson de gestes

Ave Maria ave Maria
Ave Maria Maria Norma

Comme un prière païenne
Pour l'unique amour d'une princesse
Le monde entier est sur la scène
Il vient l'aimer le temps d'une messe
Carmen salut une dernière fois
Désespérément belle et fauve
Et l'écho tragique de sa voix
Rejoint les pleurs de la nuit mauve

Ave Maria ave Maria
Ave Maria Maria Norma

Ah ah
Maria

Don't Leave Me Now


Don't Leave Me Now Composer(s): Aaron Schroeder - Ben Weisman First recording/First release by: Elvis Presley with The Jordanaires - 1957 Covered by multiple other artists



Don't leave me now
Now that I need you
How blue and lonely I’d be
If you should say we're through

Don't break my heart
This heart that loves you
They'll just be nothing for me
If you should leave me now

What good is dreamin'
If I must dream all alone by myself
Without you darling
My dreams would just gather dust
Like a book on a shelf

Come to these arms
These arms that need you
Don't close your eyes to my plea
Oh,don't leave me now
don't close your eyes, oh please
oh you don't leave me now

Ave Maria (Renato Zero)


Ave Maria
Composer(s): Renato Zero - R. Serio
Performer(s): Renato Zero



Quanta poesia, buttata via, Ave Maria
La crudeltà, l'ingenuità, Ave Maria
Noi sempre ad un passo dal cielo
Poi davanti agli occhi, quel velo...

Schegge di eroi, venuti dal mai, Ave Maria
Fiori appena spuntati, e già recisi, Ave Maria
Rei, di questa cieca ignoranza
Rei, del vuoto di una presenza
Vuoi illuminarci, Maria!
Puoi un'altra volta, Puoi...Maria!

Figli taciuti
Venduti o dimenticati
Orrore, oppure anche tu, hai finito di non vedere
alimentando così il silenzio, ch'e' qui

Ave Maria Ave Maria
Dove si muore prima di poter capire, Ave Maria
Dove la ragione non ha più niente da imparare, Ave Maria
Si, siamo meschini e anche vili
Ma, non siamo stati mai così soli...soli!

Ave Maria, Ave Maria, Ave Maria!
Stai con la povera gente
Stai!
Dai colore a chi non ha niente! Niente...
Sai, quella coscienza ci sfugge
e la paura è già... legge
Ave Maria!

Più luce alla speranza
è così buia questa via!
Ave Maria
Un abbraccio ancora...
Tu puoi farlo... Maria
un'altra volta, Maria!

Don't Laugh At Me


Don’t Laugh At Me Composer(s): J. Tremayne - Norman Wisdom Performer(s): Norman Wisdom



Don’t laugh at me ‘cause I’m a fool
I know it’s true, yes I’m a fool
No-one seems to care
I’d give the world to share my life with someone
Who really loves me
I see them all falling in love
But my lucky star hides up above
Someday maybe my star will smile on me
Don’t laugh at me ‘cause I’m a fool

I’m not good-looking, I’m not too smart
I may be foolish but I’ve got a heart
I love the flowers, I love the sun
But when I try to love the girls
They laugh at me and run

Don’t laugh at me ‘cause I’m a fool
I know it’s true, yes I’m a fool
No-one seems to care
I’d give the world to share my life with someone
Who really loves me
I see them all falling in love
But my lucky star hides up above
Someday maybe my star will smile on me
Don’t laugh at me ‘cause I’m a fool

Es Verdad
Que Hace Tiempo Que Te Tengo En El Olvido

Don't Know Where She Went (She Split)


Don't Know Where She Went (She Split)
Performer(s): Canned Heat



Don't know why she left me
Don't know where she went
Lookin' for my baby
I'm broke, what a bash it's been

'Cause she split
Yeah, she split
Packed her suitcase, now my baby's gone

When she left this mornin'
She packed her suitcase tight
Told my pretty baby
She didn't treat me right

'Cause she split
Yeah, she split
Packed her suitcase, now my baby's gone

Went down to my buddy's
Knocked on his front door
Asked him 'bout my baby
She ain't here no more

'Cause she split
Yeah, she split
Packed her suitcase, now my baby's gone

Sell my pretty Cadillac
Get me a lot of bread
Find my pretty baby
Bust her in the head

Oh, she split
Yeah, she split
Packed her suitcase, now my baby's gone

Don't know why she left me
Don't know where she went
I'm lookin' for my baby
I'm broke, what a bash it's been

'Cause she split
Yeah, she split
Packed her suitcase, now my baby's gone

Packed her suitcase, now my baby's gone
Packed her suitcase, now my baby's gone

Don't Know Much


Don't Know Much Composer(s): Barry Mann - Tom Snow - Cynthia Weil First release by: Barry Mann - 1980 Covered by multiple other artists



Look at this face I know the years are showing
Look at this life I still don't know where it's going
I don't much but I know I love you
That may be all I need to know

Look at these eyes they never seen what matters
Look at these dreams so beaten and so battered
I don't much but I know I love you
That may be all I need to know

So many questions still left unanswered
So much I've never broken through
And when I feel you near me sometimes I see so clearly
That only truth I'll never know is me and you

Look at this man so blessed with inspiration
Look at this soul still searching for salvation
I don't much but I know I love you
That may be all I need to know

I don't much but I know I love you
That may be all I need to know
I don't much but I know I love you
That may be all there is to know

Ave, Maria, Ave, Maria

They are children, lost in their fears
You, who once lost a child
You wash them with your tears
You purify them
You beautify them.

All who doubt you, stray in the night

So take them by the hand
and lead them to the light

Don't Knock The Rock


Don't Knock The Rock
Composer(s): Fred Karger - Robert E. Kent
Performer(s): Bill Haley; Alan Dale



Don’t knock the rock (Don’t knock the rock)
Don’t knock the rock (Don’t knock the rock)
Well my baby don’t do nothin’ but rock an’ roll that’s all

You can knock be-bop and you can knock swing
Say what you want about any old thing, but
Don’t knock the rock (Don’t knock the rock)
Don’t knock the rock (Don’t knock the rock)
Well my baby don’t do nothin’ but rock an’ roll that’s all

Now when my baby’s dancin’ she’s as tall as a clown
If she ever fell, she’d have to fall outa town
Dances in the kitchen with her feet in the hall
Rollin’ the rock she’s-a havin’ a ball

Don’t knock the rock (Don’t knock the rock)
Don’t knock the rock (Don’t knock the rock)
Well my baby don’t do nothin’ but rock an’ roll that’s all

You can knock mambo or dozy doe
Say what you want about any of those, but,
Don’t knock the rock (Don’t knock the rock)
Don’t knock the rock (Don’t knock the rock)
Well my baby don’t do nothin’ but rock an’ roll that’s all

You can knock-a the jive and boogie beat
Kick about those with both of your feet, but,
Don’t knock the rock (Don’t knock the rock)
Don’t knock the rock (Don’t knock the rock)
Well my baby don’t do nothin’ but rock an’ roll that’s all

When my baby’s dancin’ she is really alive
Grabs herself a partner, Mr. Five by Five
Swings him from the tree like a happy baboon
Two steps back, throws him over the moon

Well, don’t knock the rock (Don’t knock the rock)
Don’t knock the rock (Don’t knock the rock)
Well my baby don’t do nothin’ but rock an’ roll that’s all

Don't Kill The Animals


Don't Kill The Animals Composer(s): Nina Hagen - Lene Lovich Performer(s): Nina Hagen



We all want to see thru life's mystery
The quest for knowledge is a natural activity
But science be careful -- science be kind
We can't go on pretending to be blind
Those animal experiments don't make sense
You're getting nowhere with cruelty and death
I say ignorance was some excuse
But uh-uh not now -- you see we got the proof
A-a-aanimal testing is a dangerious game
All systems are different -- we're not the same
It's a terrible risk -- so no surprise
We get wrong results -- hey what about Thalidomide
Abuse yourself of your own free will
Get hurt -- get high -- get in distress
But don't drag the animals into this mess

No more torture! The animals are free
The same with messing around with atomic energy
Hey hey doctor - reincarnation
Would you like to come back as a laboratory rat?
Here we are coiled like a sleeping snake
We got to expand out potential
Forgod's sake
If we want to avoid this endless human riot
Why don't we start by changing our diet
Life is for living -- the animals agree
If they were meant to be eaten
They'd be growing on trees
So no more torture of our furry friends
In the name of food or scientific ends
The pressure is on -- be antivivisection!

All our scientists are messing up - they don't succeed
Let the psychics tell what the spirits think we need
Our super friends from other planets want to give advice
But the money orientated business doesn't think that's nice

Come on let's educate the mutated human race
By the super power of amazing grace
The missing link of human evolution
Is sexuality - it needs a spiritual revolution
My individual god identity
Is what you've gotta meet
It's the rhythm of the beat

Don't kill the animals
Don't kill the animals
The animals are free
