Don't Talk To Me Of Love


Don't Talk To Me Of Love Composer(s): Lenoir - Charlie Skarbek - Tim Smit Performer(s): Mireille Mathieu & Barry Manilow



Barry Manilow:
Don't talk to me of love
'Cause love is a dangerous thing
I've heard the words before
And I know the pain they can bring

Mireille Mathieu:
Don't talk to me of love
It's all right for movies and songs
Living for today
I know the time makes me strong

Both:
Don't talk to me of love
What are you thinking of?
Don't talk to me of love
Don't talk of love again

Don't talk to me of love
What are you thinking of?
The words are not enough
Don't talk of love

Barry Manilow:
Oh, don't play these games of love
`Cause love is a treacherous thing
I've seen it all before
And I know the tears they can bring

Mireille Mathieu:
Don't play those games of love
What keeps me hanging on?
Another lonely day
So why do I cry when it's gone?

Both:
Ne parles pas d'amour
Que sais-tu de l'amour?
Ne parle pas d'amour
N'en parle pas

MM: Ne parle pas d'amour
BM: Ne parle pas d'amour
MM: On peut mourir d'amour
BM: On peut mourir d'amour
MM: Si tu crois à l'amour, n'en parle pas

Both:
Don't hurt me with your love
`Cause love is a dangerous thing
The words are not enough
So, I'm begging don't talk to me of love

La Beauté Du Diable (Joe Dassin)


La Beauté Du Diable
((Adapted from: A Mellow Melody (by Charlie Rich) - 1975))
Composer(s): Billy Sherrill - Charlie Rich - Claude Lemesle - Pierre Delanoë
Performer(s): Joe Dassin - 1979




Toi qui a l'air d'un petit ange, d'une p'tite bête à bon Dieu
Qui a les yeux de l'innocence, du moins à mes yeux
Je sais qu'au fond de toi sommeille un vrai petit démon
C'est vrai que la beauté du diable porte bien son nom

On t'imagine rougissante sortie du couvent
Allons au bal de débutante aux bras d'un débutant
On a envie de te donner l'amour sans confession
C'est vrai que la beauté du diable porte bien ton nom

Lorsque je tend les mains
Ne m'en veut pas si je m'adresse plutot à tes seins
Le ciel est bien trop loin
Et tes fruits défendus et nos jeux interdits
Me font un joli paradis

Toi qui as l'air d'un petit ange avec tes cheveux blonds
Pour qui un nouveau Michel-Ange perdrait la raison
Jamais rien sur cette Terre ne peut m'en empêcher
C'est vrai que la beauté du diable n'est pas un péché

Toi qui a l'air d'un petit ange, d'une p'tite bête à bon Dieu
Qui a les yeux de l'innocence, du moins à mes yeux
Je sais qu'au fond de toi sommeille un vrai petit démon
C'est vrai que la beauté du diable porte bien son nom

Don't Talk To Him


Don't Talk To Him
Composer(s): Cliff Richard - Bruce Welch
Performer(s): Cliff Richard; Bachman Cummings



If some guy tells you I don't care
And tells you lies while I'm not there
Don't talk to him

And if he tells you I'm untrue
And now and then what you must do
Don't talk to him

And if he tells you I've been seen
Walking round with Sue and Jean
He's lying again
Do anything that you want to
But darling this I beg of you
Don't talk to him

If you hear the words he has to say
He'll break your heart
Let your love for me prove strong while we are far apart

So just remember what I say
And trust in me while I'm away
For I'll be true
And just remember my true love
Is brighter than the moon above for only you
And if this guy should try to say
My love for you is only plainly a whim
Just close your eyes and count to ten
And think of me again
But don't you talk to him

If you hear the words he has to say
He'll break your heart
Let your love for me prove strong while we are far apart

La Beauté Du Diable (Françoise Hardy)


La Beauté Du Diable
Composer(s): Françoise Hardy - Rodolphe Burger
Performer(s): Françoise Hardy



Destination
plus ou moins connue...
porté ou non
disparu?
pas sûr...
passé pas simple
avenir exclu...
la beauté du diable
le rend identifiable
entre tous...
sa beauté du diable
aveugle qui
la regarde en face
et malgré lui
cloue sur place
vous crucifie
par sa présence...
sans domicile
histoires décousues...
imprévisible
ambigü...
cœur pur...
vie dissolue
mort violante prévue...
la beauté du diable
le rend inoubliable
entre tous...
sa beauté du diable
entraîne qui
la voit de trop près
vers la folie
à jamais
vous démolit
par son absence...

Don't Talk Now


Don't Talk Now
Composer(s): James Taylor
Performer(s): James Taylor; Charlie Starr



Where I've been
You don't know
And what I've got
Baby, it don't show
Now, I won't try
To teach you how
Don't talk now

Don't talk roads
Don't talk sand
Don't talk dust
Don't talk no man
Don't talk rules
Don't talk vows
Don't talk now

I don't wanna hear the same old song
And too many rights still make her wrong, baby
I know she can't hurt me less by talking more
She can't make good what was bad before

No, It's too late now for me to lie
And I can't make a second try
I just came on back baby got to say good - bye, good bye
Don't talk now...
Don't talk now

Estaba la beata un dia
enferma del mar de amor

Don't Take Your Love From Me


Don't Take Your Love From Me
Composer(s): Henry Nemo
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra



Tear a star from out the sky and the sky feels blue
Tear a petal from the rose and the rose weeps too
Take your heart away from mine and mine will surely break
My life is yours to take, so please keep the spark awake

Would you take the wings from birds so that they can’t fly?
Would you take the ocean’s roar and leave just a sigh?
All this, your heart won’t let you do
This is what I beg of you
Don’t take your love from me

All this, your heart won’t let you do
This is what I beg of you
Don’t take your love from me
Don’t take your love from me

La Baya


La Baya
Composer(s): Marcel Heurtebise - Henri Christiné
Performer(s): Suzy Delair
and multiple other artists



Un jeune officier de marine
Un soir rencontra dans Pékin
Une petite Chinoise divine
Qu'on promenait en palanquin
En l'apercevant la toute belle
Arrêta bien vite ses porteurs
"Mon gentil petit Français, dit-elle
Veux-tu connaître le bonheur!"

Chin', Chin', Chin', Chin'
Viens voir comme en Chine
On sait aimer au pays bleu
Chin', Chin', Chin', Chin'
Je serai câline
Si tu veux bien m'aimer un peu
Tous deux nous ferons un joli duo
Oh! Oh! Oh!
Timélou, lamélou, pan pan timéla
Paddy lamélou, concodou la Baya!
Timélou, lamélou, pan pan timéla
Paddy lamélou, concodou la Baya!

Dans une tour de porcelaine
Se rendirent les amoureux
Et pendant toute une semaine
Ils vécurent des jours heureux!
La petite Chinoise folichonne
Savait très bien charmer son amant
Et de sa voix la plus polissonne
Elle répétait au bon moment

Chin', Chin', Chin', Chin'
Voilà comme en Chine
On sait aimer au pays bleu
Chin', Chin', Chin', Chin'
Extase divine
Qu'il est charmant ce petit jeu
Répétons encore ce joli duo
Oh! Oh! Oh!
Timélou, lamélou, pan pan timéla
Paddy lamélou, concodou la Baya!
Timélou, lamélou, pan pan timéla
Paddy lamélou, concodou la Baya!

Avant de partir pour la France
Le marin dit à la mousmé
"Je suis ravi de ta science
De ton amour je suis charmé!
Dis-moi maintenant chère petite
Qui donc aussi bien t'apprit l'amour?
Est-ce un Japonais, un Annamite?
"Mais non" fit-elle sans détour

Chin', Chin', Chin', Chin'
Je n'suis pas d'la Chine
Je suis née au quartier latin
Et j'ai fait
La danse serpentine
Pendant six mois à Tabarin
C'est là que j'ai appris mon petit numéro
Oh! Oh! Oh!
Timélou, lamélou, pan pan timéla
Paddy lamélou, concodou la Baya!
Timélou, lamélou, pan pan timéla
Paddy lamélou, concodou la Baya!

Don't Take Your Guns To Town


Don't Take Your Guns To Town
Composer(s): Johnny Cash
Originally performed by: Johnny Cash
Covered by various other artists



A young cowboy named Billy Joe
Grew restless on the farm
A boy filled with wanderlust
Who really meant no harm
He changed his clothes and shined his boots
And combed his dark hair down
And his mother cried as he walked out

Refrain:
"Don't take your guns to town, son
Leave your guns at home, Bill
Don't take your guns to town"

He sang a song as on he rode
His guns hung at his hips
He rode into a cattle town
A smile upon his lips
He stopped and walked into a bar and laid his money down
But his mother's words echoed again

Refrain:
"Don't take your guns to town, son
Leave your guns at home, Bill
Don't take your guns to town"

He drank his first strong liquor then to calm his shaking hand
And tried to tell himself at last he had become a man
A dusty cowpoke at his side began to laugh him down
And he heard again his mother's words

Refrain:
"Don't take your guns to town, son
Leave your guns at home, Bill
Don't take your guns to town"

Bill was raged and Billy Joe reached for his gun to draw
But the stranger drew his gun and fired before he even saw
As Billy Joe fell to the floor the crowd all gathered 'round
And wondered at his final words

Refrain:
"Don't take your guns to town, son
Leave your guns at home, Bill
Don't take your guns to town"

Don't Take Me Alive


Don't Take Me Alive Composer(s): Walter Becker - Donald Fagen Performer(s): Steely Dan



Agents of the law
Luckless pedestrian
I know you're out there
With rage in your eyes and your megaphones
Saying all is forgiven
Mad Dog surrender
How can I answer
A man of my mind can do anything

Chorus:
I'm a bookkeeper's son
I don't want to shoot no one
Well I crossed my old man back in Oregon
Don't take me alive
Got a case of dynamite
I could hold out here all night
Yes I crossed my old man back in Oregon
Don't take me alive

Can you hear the evil crowd
The lies and the laughter
I hear my inside
The mechanized hum of another world
Where no sun is shining
No red light flashing
Here in this darkness
I know what I've done
I know all at once who I am

La Barca


La Barca
Composer(s): L. Beretta - Adriano Celentano - Vito Pallavicini - G. Santercole
Performer(s): Adriano Celentano



Mattino di sole sulla barca
sperduti nel mare io e lei
la scema e' li' che si riposa
io remo pensando ai fatti miei
sarebbe il momento proprio giusto
rovescio la barca e lei va giu'
ma dopo da solo cosa faccio
io senza di lei non vivo piu'

oh oh
oh oh
oh...

voi cuori di pietra come fate
voi che ammazzate la gente per sport
la guardo non sembra neanche piu' scema
sfiorarla di baci io vorrei
son cose neanche da pensare
ti beccano tutti prima o poi
e' dentro di voi che dovete ammazzare
il vostro pensiero se perde l'amor

oh oh
oh oh
oh...

due piccole onde la svegliano piano
non parla mi guarda coss'ha?
se certo non fossi che lei mi vuol bene
direi che la pelle mi vuol far
son cose nanche da pensar
son bravo a nuotare e lei lo sa
non so cosa ho fatto piu' che remare
stasera se vuole la porto anche al nigh

oh oh
oh...
oh oh
oh...

Don't Take It So Hard


Don't Take It So Hard
Composer(s): Mark Lindsay
Performer(s): Paul Revere & The Raiders



I've tried to let you down so easy
I'd like to still be just a friend
We shared such memories together
But all good things come to an end

You should not take it so hard
You should not take it so hard
You should not take it so hard
You should not take it so hard
You should not take it so hard
You should not take it so hard

You wonder when you are going to see me
I might just pass this way again
Until then don't you wait up for me
Cause now I'm getting in the wind
Don't you remember what I told you from the start
When people fall in love too much
It can cause a broken heart that won't mend easy
But if you just wait sometime
I may come walking to you in the sunshine

Oh, baby, I found heaven when I found you
And this heaven is somethin’ I don’t wanna lose

Now that I’ve gone and built my world around your love, I wouldn’t let you go
Don’t ever say goodbye, no, don’t, don’t, don’t ever go

‘Cause the sun would have nowhere to shine
And the stars would all fall from the sky

And I’d lose my whole world if you go (If you go)

What good would a life without you be anyway (Anyway)

Don't Sweetheart Me


Don't Sweetheart Me Composer(s): Charles Tobias - Cliff Friend Performer(s): Donald Peers and multiple other artists



Don't sweetheart me if you don't mean it
Don't talk sweet words if they're not true
Don't tear my heart like it was paper
Because my heart loves only you

You can't go round sweethearting others
And then pretend that I'm yours exclusively
Love must be true, mean what you're saying
Unless you do, don't sweetheart me

Sweetheart’s a word you use too lightly
It’s more than just a word to me
And darling I resent it slightly
So hold that kiss, remember this

Don't sweetheart me if you don't mean it
Don't talk sweet words if they're not true
Don't tear my heart like it was paper
Because my heart loves only you

You can't go round sweethearting others
And then pretend that I'm yours exclusively
Love must be true, mean what you're saying
Unless you do, don't sweetheart me

You can't go round sweethearting others
And then pretend that I'm yours exclusively
Love must be true, mean what you're saying
Unless you do, don't you ever sweetheart me

La Bandita De Jazz
Performer(s): Fernando Ubiergo



Quisiera olvidar
tu forma de amar
quedarme solo
y volver atrás
para saber si puedo
comenzar

Con la bandita de jazz
me iré yo a viajar
y en muchos pueblos
nos van a esperar
La carretera ayuda
a olvidar

Ya no quiero más
tu forma de amar
pequeña bruja
de la gran ciudad
Ahora no podrás reír
porque yo voy
con mi banda de jazz
de aquí para allá
haciendo todo
lo que me gusta más
cantando en plazas
o en un carnaval

Y si tú quieres venir
no lo pienses más
toma tu escoba
y deja la ciudad
La carretera ayuda
a olvidar

Podremos soñar
podremos viajar
Serás la estrella
que viene a alumbrar
las noches cuando va a tocar
nuestra bandita de jazz
