Quitter L'Enfance


Quitter L'Enfance
Composer(s): Maxime le Forestier; Julien Clerc
Performer(s): Julien Clerc



Un rien te fait rougir
Comme un feu de brindilles
Et tu hais les familles
Comme j'ai pu les hair

Un rien te fait rougir
Et tu voudrais changer
Le sens du verbe aimer
Sans les mots pour le dire

Je lis ton innocence
Dans le noir de tes bas
Tu peux quitter l'enfance
Ton enfance
Ne te quitte pas
Tes lèvres se colorent
Maintenant que tu veilles
Et tes poupées sont vieilles
Maintenant que tu sors

Maitenant que tu danses
À chacun de tes pas
Tu peux quitter l'enfance
Ton enfance
Ne te quitte pas

Je ne peux rien te dire
Je n'ai pas été fille
J'ai hai les familles
Comme tu peux les hair

She Never Met A Man (She Didn't Like)


She Never Met A Man (She Didn't Like)
Composer(s): Dolly Parton
Dolly Parton



I know you think you love her and you're making plans to leave
But I must tell you something I just hope you'll believe
I know it isn't real love that you see in her eyes
Cause she's never met a man she didn't like
And you're no different from the others
A new acquaintence in the night
You mean no more to her than all the others she's held tight
But I know she's convinced you it was love at first sight
But she's never met a man she didn't like

I must let you go but I want you to know
That I love you please don't let her ruin our lives
For there'll be other men and she won't want you then
She's never met a man she didn't like

I must let you go but I want you to know
That I love you please don't let her ruin our lives
For she'll have other men oh and she won't want you then
Cause she's never met a man she didn't like
Oh no she's never met a man she didn't like

Quizás Le Dancen Los Cuervos


Quizás Le Dancen Los Cuervos
Composer(s): Léon Gieco
Performer(s): León Gieco



Cuando tu vida te pida
unas tristes melodías
que el viento mudo las lleve
para que otros también se enteren

Es que hay tanta gente
que por mas que uno los lustre
nunca su brillo se verá en su mente
Es que hay tanta gente
que por mas que uno le explique
nunca su rabia se convertirá en pena
Ay, adentro, si se vieran adentro
quizás le dancen los cuervos

Cuando tu nombre desprecie
lo que pase por enfrente
es que un pedazo de tierra
se está muriendo de verguenza

Es que hay tanta gente
que no mira ni a los ojos
mezcla de poca suerte, broncas y odios

Es que hay tanta gente
que se siente despareja
hacen que otros cuelguen de sus condenas

Ay, adentro, si se vieran adentro
quizás le dancen los cuervos

She Never Heard Me Call


She Never Heard Me Call
Composer(s): Graham Russell; Rex Goh
Performer(s): Air Supply



One warm night I fell in love
The air was still the words would flow
We knew each other oh so well
And though just met you'd never tell

Sometimes we're just lonely hearts
That ride upon a floating card
Prepared to live those sleepless nights
For precious time in paradise

And now I find the future's gone
The reasons that I had to carry on are gone
I tried for it all
She never heard me call at all

There's no regrets we made the choice
We listened to that silent voice
That haunts you till you just give in
And makes you like a child again

We drifted close then said good-byes
Just reading well each other's eyes
The world had turned while we stood still
And held on to each other

And now I find the future's gone
The reasons that I had to carry on are gone
I tried for it all
She never heard me call at all

And in between the right and wrong
Is somewhere that sometimes you can belong
I tried for it all
She never heard me call
And now I find the future's gone
The reasons that I had to carry on are gone
I cried for it all
She never heard me call at all

She Moves Me


She Moves Me
Composer(s): Muddy Waters
First release by: Muddy Waters - 1951



She moves me man, honey and I don't see how its done
She moves me man, honey and I don't see how its done
She gotta pocket full of money, little doll don't try to help me though

She move me when she get drunk, then she say I'm not nowhere
She call me a dumbbell, she tells me I'm nothing but a square
She moves me man, honey and I don't see how its done
She got a pocket full of money, the little girl don't try to help me though
(What kinda woman is that?)

She move a crazy man, who say now I'm not so dumb
I take her to a funeral boy, the dead jumped up to run
She look at a deaf and dumb boy, said now I can speak
She shook her finger in a blind man's face, once I was blind but now I see
She moves me man, honey and I don't see how its done
She gotta pocket full of money, the little girl don't try to help me though

Qu'on Est Bien


Qu'on Est Bien
Composer(s): Guy Béart
Performer(s): Juliette Gréco



{Refrain:}
Qu'on est bien
Dans les bras
D'une personne du sexe opposé
Qu'on est bien
Dans ces bras-là
Qu'on est bien
Dans les bras
D'une personne du genre qu'on n'a pas
Qu'on est bien
Dans ces bras-là

C'est la vraie prière
La prochaine aime le prochain
C'est la vraie grammaire
Le masculin s'accorde avec le féminin

{au Refrain}

Certains jouent quand même
Les atouts de même couleur
Libres à eux moi j'aime
Les valets sur les dames les trèfles sur les cœurs.

{au Refrain}

Les creux sur les bosses
Tout finit par se marier
Les bons sur les rosses
Et même les colombes avec les éperviers

{au Refrain}

Qu'on est bien
Dans les bras
D'une personne du sexe opposé
Qu'on est bien
Dans ces bras
Là

She Moved Through The Fair


She Moved Through The Fair
(Traditional)



My young love said to me: My mother won't mind
And my father won't slight you for your lack of kind
She put her arms 'round me; these words she did say
It will not be long, love, 'til our wedding day!

Then she stepped away from me, and she moved through the Fair
And so fondly I watched her move here and move there
At last she turned homeward, with one star awake
As the Swan in the evening moves over the lake

Last night she came to me, my dead love came in
And so soft did she move that her feet made no din
She put her arms 'round me; these words she did say
It will not be long, love, 'til our wedding day!

Qu'y A-T-Il Après?


Qu'y A-T-Il Après?
Composer(s): Yves Duteil
Performer(s): Yves Duteil



Qu'y a-t-il après
Quand nos âmes ont disparu
Quand nos cœurs ne battent plus
Près de ceux qu'on aime?

Si nos souvenirs se diluent dans l'infini
Qu'en est-il de nos amours et nos amis?

Quand je m'en irai
Pour ailleurs ou pour après
J'aurai si peur de n'y trouver que des regrets

Je cherche déjà les chemins d'éternité
Qui pourront guider mes pas pour te trouver...

Qu'advient-il de nous
Quand nos yeux se sont fermés
Sur tous ceux qu'on va laisser
Terminer nos rêves

Au bout du chemin, si le temps n'existe pas
Où s'en vont tous les visages d'autrefois?

Quand je m'en irai
Pour toujours ou pour jamais
Je voudrais tant te dire encore que je t'aimais

Si les mots parfois sont trop lourds au fond du cœur
Les silences ont la couleur de nos secrets...

Ils me reste encore tant de larmes et tant de rires
Tant de choses à découvrir
Des bonheurs à vivre

S'il fallait partir, moi mon ciel ou mon enfer
Ce serait de te chercher dans l'Univers...

Qu'y a-t-il après
Quand nos âmes ont disparu
Quand nos cœurs ne battent plus
Près de ceux qu'on aime?

Si nos souvenirs se diluent dans l'infini
Qu'en est-il de nos amours et nos amis?

Quand je m'en irai pour ailleurs ou pour après
J'aurai si peur de n'y trouver que des regrets

Et je sais déjà les chemins d'éternité
Qui pourront guider mes pas pour te trouver...

She Means Nothing To Me


She Means Nothing To Me
Composer(s): Sunny David
Performer(s): Phil Everly & Cliff Richard



Well
here she comes now
I'm on the run now
Pretending
just pretending that I don't see her

Just to teach her
but Darlin'
How much longer can I keep on living this lie?
She means nothing to me
she means nothing to` me

I'm still as free as a bird
don't care what you heard about me
She means nothing to me - no more
She's my world
not just some girl

Harder
it's getting harder to fool anyone
not just her
But I act like a man she'd expect me to: No tears
win her respect
Who am I fooling if I can't fool me?
Who believes what their eyes don't see?
But I keep on lying
She means nothing to me
she don't
she means nothing to me. . . .
All my dreams are depending on her and how good I'm pretending that
She means nothing to me
nothing
she means nothing to me . . .
She means nothing to me
she don't
she means nothing to me . . .

Qu'y A-T-Il De Changé?


Qu'y A-T-Il De Changé?
Composer(s): Serge Lama; Yves Gilbert
Performer(s): Marie Laforêt



Un carillon ding dong
Fait un peu de ping pong
Dans l'espace léger
Les cloches se répondent
Aux quatre coins du monde
Qu'y a-t-il de changé?

Un soleil blanc là-bas
Ajoute un zéro à
L'addition de l'été
Il fait beau dans la tête
Des gens de la planète
Est-ce l'éternité?

Un Pierrot fou d'amour
A cent fois fait le tour
Du monde en cerf-volant
Il fait tourner les tables
Il a l'air d'un bon diable
Sous son air insolent

Les enfants ont du cœur
Ils font pousser des fleurs
Autour de leurs cerceaux
Rien qu'en faisant la ronde
Ils bâtissent un monde
Où les enfants sont beaux

Tous les chasseurs d'antan
Jouent à tuer le temps
Plus jamais de vautours
Les gibiers de potence
Ont mis leur insolence
Au compte de l'amour

Tout ceci n'est pas vrai
C'est un mauvais portrait
Eh bien ma foi tant pis
Puisque le jour se lève
Et dessine mon rêve
Aux formes de Paris

Car le monde est au fond
Au fond au fond au fond
Comme dans les chansons
Et les jours où il pleut
Quand le ciel est moins bleu
Y a qu'à fermer les yeux

She May Have Seen Better Days


She May Have Seen Better Days
Composer(s): James Thornton
Performer(s): George J. Gaskin
and multiple other artists



While strolling along with the city's vast throng
On a night that was bitterly cold
I noticed a crowd who were laughing aloud
At something they chanced to behold

I stopped for to see what the object could be
And there on a doorstep lay
A woman in tears from the crowd's angry jeers
And then I heard somebody say

She may have seen better days when she was in her prime
She may have seen better days once upon a time
Though by the wayside she fell, she may yet mend her ways
Some poor old mother is waiting for her who has seen better days

If we could tell why the poor creature fell
Perhaps we'd not be so severe
If the truth were but known on this outcast alone
Maybe we would all shed a tear

She was once someone's joy, cast aside like a toy
Abandoned, forsaken, unknown
Every man standing by had a tear in his eye
For some had a daughter at home

She may have seen better days when she was in her prime
She may have seen better days once upon a time
Though by the wayside she fell, she may yet mend her ways
Some poor old mother is waiting for her who has seen better days

The crowd went away, but I longer did stay
For from her I was loath to depart
I knew by her moan, as she sat there alone
That something was breaking her heart

She told me her life, she was once a good wife
Respected and honoured by all
Her husband had fled ere tney were long wed
And tears down her cheeks sadly fell

She may have seen better days when she was in her prime
She may have seen better days once upon a time
Though by the wayside she fell, she may yet mend her ways
Some poor old mother is waiting for her who has seen better days

She May Call You Up Tonight


She May Call You Up Tonight
Composer(s): Michael David Lookofsky; Steve Carmelo Martin
First release by: The Left Banke - 1967
Covered by multiple other artists



I've been telling lies
I never knew
all to keep that girl
away from you
but she may call you up tonight
then what could I say
that would sound right

Thoughts that raised my mind
just pushed aside
all the chances there
that we once had
but she may call you up tonight
then what could I say
that would sound right

And when I'm crying
yes I know my mind is flying
to a place where there's no trying
but she may call you up tonight

I've been telling lies
I never knew
all to keep that girl
away from you
but she may call you up tonight
then what could I say
that would sound right

but she may call you up tonight
then what could I say
that would sound right
then what could I say
that would sound right

She May Be


She May Be
Composer(s): George Kooymans
Performer(s): Golden Earring



She may be
The girl you're holding tight
She's the one
I cried for every night
I warn you friend
It must be soon
And she will say goodbye
Just like mine
Your arms and veins
Will fly in the sky
One thing I know for sure
This happened once before
She'll turn her back on you
And take me in her arms again
She may be
The girl you're holding tight
She's the one
I cried for every night
Now she's the kind of girl
Who always flies around
But someday soon she'll see it
That I'm the only real love
That mine's the only real love
That mine's the only real love

She Made Toothpicks Of The Timber Of My Heart


She Made Toothpicks Of The Timber Of My Heart
Composer(s): Sammy Mysels; Dick Sanford
Performer(s): Homer & Jethro



Fer a backwoods gal was she
And fer choppin' down a tree
She was handy with an ax and she was smart
Oh but I should have passed her by
When she waved and hollered hi
She made toothpicks of the timber of my heart

Well when whe promised to be mine
I cut ninety logs of pine
For a little cabin in our world of hearts
All our dreams were heaven bound
Till she tore that castle down
She made toothpicks of the timber of my heartx

She made toothpicks of the timber of my heart
She made toothpicks of the timber of my heart
Like a buzzsaw rips a pole
She made sawdust of my soul
She made toothpicks of the timber of my heart

She was tall and she was limber
And for timber she was fine
But her lips were poison oak and turpentine
She was cute and I was green
Yes my darlin' lumber queen
Twined me 'round her finger like a clingin' vine

Now I hang around the shack
Jist a lonesome lumberjack
Mighta knowed her heart
Was wooden from the start
When she snatched away her charms
There were splinters in my arms
She made toothpicks of the timber of my heart

She made toothpicks of the timber of my heart
She made toothpicks of the timber of my heart
When she rolled me down that hill
And she run me thru the mill
She made toothpicks of the timber of my heart

She Loved A Lot In Her Time


She Loved A Lot In Her Time
Composer(s): Randy Boudreaux; Sam Hogin; Kim Williams
Performer(s): George Jones



I started drinking and actin' crazy
Way back in '65
Mama would pray and say he's my baby
Lord please keep him alive

Sister came home with two little children
Her man had left her alone
Mama knew too well the hurt she'd been feelin'
'Cause Daddy'd been gone for so long

We all did our part to add to her pain
We all broke her heart but she never complained

She loved a lot in her time
She watched love grow and die on the vine
She stood in the shadows
So others could shine
She loved a lot in her time

Mama's prayers were answered a long time ago
I ain't touched a drink in 10 years
Sister remarried to a Good Ol' Boy
They don't live far from here

Mama's work is done
Now she's gone on home...
The words in our hearts
Are engraved on her stone

She loved a lot in her time
She watched love grow and die on the vine
She stood in the shadows
So others could shine
She loved a lot in her time

She loved a lot in her time
She watched love grow and die on the vine
She stood in the shadows
So others could shine
She loved a lot in her time

Mama, you loved a lot in your time

Ik Heb Geen Zin Om Op Te Staan
Performer(s): Het



Het is weer tijd om op te staan
Maar ik heb geen zin (hij heeft geen zin)
Om naar m'n baas te gaan
Met m'n blote voeten op het kouwe zeil
(Met z'n grote blote voeten op het kouwe zeil)
Ik heb geen zin om op te staan
Ik heb geen zin om op te staan (ik heb geen zin om op te staan)

Was jij maar hier, was jij maar hier
Want het is zo fijn (het is zo fijn)
Om hier met jou te zijn
Met m'n voeten tegen je pyjama aan
(Met z'n grote voeten tegen je pyjama aan)
Ik heb geen zin om op te staan
Ik heb geen zin om op te staan (ik heb geen zin om op te staan)

Ik blijf in bed, de hele dag
Want ik heb geen zin (hij heeft geen zin)
Om d'r nou nog uit te gaan
Met m'n blote handen naar mijn baas te gaan
(Met z'n grote blote handen naar z'n baas te gaan)
Ik heb geen zin om op te staan
Ik heb geen zin om op te staan (ik heb geen zin om op te staan)
Ik heb geen zin om op te staan (ik heb geen zin om op te staan)
Ik heb geen zin om op te staan (ik heb geen zin om op te staan)...

She Likes It Too


She Likes It Too
Composer(s): Tim Nichols; Zack Turner
Performer(s): Alan Jackson



I got my first motorcycle when I turned sixteen
I remember my mama raisin cane with me
She said, "Son tell me why you want to ride that thing"
She didn't know about the blonde at the Dairy Queen

I got my own reasons why I do what I do
I like to ride motorcycles
She likes it too
I like to ride motorcycles
She likes it too

I always wore my hair just a little too long
Daddy didn;t like it and he made no bones
If I'd have gotten it cut like he wanted me to
She wouldn't have had nothin left to run her fingers through

I got my reasons why I do what I do
I like to wear my hair long
She likes it too

I like to wear my hair long
She likes it too

I remember ridin' around with my buddies back home
Listenin to some country on the radio
When they tried to change the station to some rock 'n roll
I'd turn the Opry up just as loud as it would go

I got my reasons why I do what I do
I like country music
She likes it too

I like country music
She likes it too

I got my own reasons
Why I do what I do
I know what I like
She likes it too

I know what I like
She likes it too

Yeah I know what I like
And she likes it too
