Only Heaven Can Wait (For Love)
Only Heaven Can Wait (For Love)
Composer(s): Roberta Flack; Eric Mercury
Performer(s): Roberta Flack
We know that it’s all over
still we haven’t said goodbye
Pretending life is wonderful, pretending you and I
Why do we stay together, we can’t wait forever
Heaven’s too late, only heaven can wait
Waiting for love won’t make it happen
Crying for love don’t mean you care … oh no
Only when love has ended, can a heart be mended
Never’s too late, only heaven can wait
In horoscopes, in true romance and Playboy magazine
We lie in bed at night and search the pages for our dreams
Why do we stay together, we can’t wait forever
Heaven’s too late, only heaven can wait
And waiting for love won’t make it happen
Crying for love don’t mean you care … oh no
Only when love has ended, can a heart be mended
Ever’s too late, only heaven can wait
Why do we stay together, we can’t wait forever
Heaven’s too late, only heaven can wait
Why do we stay together, we can’t wait forever
Heaven’s too late, only heaven can wait
Talking………
So we’ve been together too long, you and I
There were the children, shared interests, creative interests, business interests
our In-laws, and then just plain old bad habits
Now things have changed
You’ve changed, I’ve changed and it’s time to move on
So, my sweet, you kept doubting that I would understand what you meant
when you said you needed your space
Well, I do understand
I have some more reasons – another purpose to my life
and I’m ready to take my own space – we both deserve it – something real
Why do we stay together, we can’t wait forever
Heaven’s too late, only heaven can wait
Why do we stay together, we can’t wait forever
Heaven’s too late, only heaven can wait
Why do we stay together, we can’t wait forever
Heaven’s too late, only heaven can wait
Why do we stay together, we can’t wait forever
Heaven’s too late, only heaven can wait
Slowly……..
Why do we stay together, we can’t wait forever

Shangri La
Shangri La
Composer(s): Peter de Wijn
First performance by: Gerard Joling - 1988
Leven, liefde
Ik ben op zoek naar Shangri La
In een nacht van neon en de geur van schralend bier
Staat daar een kamerscherm van rijstpapier
De wereld is wat niemand eigenlijk
In een jungle van beton voel
Wie kan leven zonder liefde
Ik ben op zoek naar Shangri La
Wie kan leven zonder liefde
Ik ben op zoek naar Shangri La
Ja, leef maar op gevoel
Je dagen zonder doel
Tot morgen weer voorbij is
Langs ieder flatgebouw
Zie ik een bamboetouw
Leven zonder liefde
Ik ben op zoek naar Shangri La
Ja, leef maar op gevoel
Je dromen zonder doel
Tot morgen weer voorbij is
Leven, liefde
Ik ben op zoek naar Shangri la
Leven, liefde
Ik ben op zoek naar Shangri la
Ik ben op zoek naar Shangri La...

Mi Buen Amor
Mi Buen Amor
Composer(s): L. Estéfano
Performer(s): Gloria Estefan
and various other artists
Hay amores que se esfuman con los años
Hay amores que su llama sigue viva
Los inciertos, que son rosa y son espina
Y hay amores de los buenos, como tú
Hay amores que se siembran y florecen
Hay amores que terminan en sequía
Los que traen desengaños en la vida
Y hay amores de los buenos, como tú
Mi amor, mi buen amor, mi delirio
No pretendas que te olvide así, no más
Que tu amor fue mar cuando sedienta
Me arrimé a tu puerto a descansar
Que tu amor, amor, sólo el que un día
en tu pecho, vida mía, me dio la felicidad
Hay amores que nos llevan al abismo
Hay amores que jamás se nos olvidan
Los que dan toda ternura y fantasía
Son amores de los buenos, como tú
Mi amor, mi buen amor, mi delirio
No pretendas que sea poco mi penar
que tu amor fue luz de pleno día
cuando todo era oscuridad
Que tu amor, amor sólo el que un día
en tu pecho, vida mía, me dio la felicidad
en tu pecho, vida mía, me dio la felicidad

Only Forever
Only Forever
Composer(s): James V. Monaco; Johnny Burke
Performer(s): Bing Crosby;
and various other artists
Do I want to be with you
As the years come and go?
Only forever
If you care to know
Would I grant all your wishes
And be proud of the task
Only forever
If someone should ask
How long would it take me
To be near if you bechon?
Off hand I would figure
Less than a second
Do you think I'll remember
How you looked when you smile?
Only forever
That's puttin' it mild
How long would it take me
To be near if you bechon?
Off hand I would figure
Less than a second.
Do you think I'll remember
How you looked when you smile?
Only forever
That's puttin' it mild

Mi Amante Niña, Mi Compañera
Mi Amante Niña, Mi Compañera
Composer(s): L. Flavio; J. Candia
Performer(s): Raphael
Mi amiga, mi buena amiga
Mi amante niña, mi compañera
Quisiera contarle al mundo
Lo que es tenerte la noche entera
Y recorrer tus caminos
Tu vientre fino
Tu piel de seda
Y el paisaje de tu pelo
Sobre la almohada
Y tu boca fresca
Razón de mi vida y mi ser
Toda mi alegría
Molino en que gira mi ser
Tu amor y mi vida
El hijo de tus entrañas
Tendrá tus ojos de primavera
Y tu risa de campana
Mi amante niña y mi compañera
Si alguna vez te hago daño
Te hiero en algo, mi compañera
Perdóname como a un niño
Que tiene celos, mi compañera
A veces cuando despierto
A velar tu sueño de niña buena
Te robo en silencio un beso
Mi amante niña, mi compañera
Y pienso si no es pecado
Ser tan dichoso y me da vergüenza
Y entonces lloro en silencio
Por lo que sufres, mi compañera
Mi amiga, mi buena amiga
Mi amante niña y mi compañera

Only For Americans
Only For Americans
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
Performer(s): Ethel Griffies & Eddie Albert;
The Andrews Sisters
Horace: Countess, you're my pal
Hey, we gotta celebrate!
Countess: What?
Horace: Yeah, first to Montmartre!
Then the Moulin Rouge! The Folies Bergere!
Countess: Not at all....
Horace: Not Montmartre?
Countess: No
Horace: Not the Moulin Rouge?
Countess: No
Horace: Not the Folies Bergere?
Countess: No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
They are...
Only for Americans
The midnight life in gay Paree
The Frenchman he would never see
It's only for Americans
The prices in the smart café
The Frenchman he would never pay
The price that's more is only for
Americans from the U.S.A.
A Montmartre lady drops her hanky
And slyly winks her eye
That's only for the Yankee
The Frenchman wouldn't buy
Only for Americans
The Frenchmen on the boulevards
Don't buy those dirty postal cards
They're only for Americans
The little holes for peeping through
To see what naughty people do
The French would bore, they're only for
Americans from the U.S.A.
Only for Americans
The shops with many real antiques
Antiques as old as seven weeks
They're only for Americans
The bed on which a king made love
Which there are sev'ral dozen of
The French pooh pooh, we sell them to
Americans from the U.S.A.
Those old Napoleon brandy labels
That recently were made
They're not for Frenchmen's tables
They're for the Yankee trade
Only for Americans
The Frenchman gets his kisses free
But those for which there is a fee
Are only for Americans
You'll find two prices on a dress
One that is extremely less
The price that's more is only for
Americans from the U.S.A.
Only for Americans
A Frenchman's food is very plain
Those fancy sauces with ptomaine
Are only for Americans
A Frenchman seldom eats the snails
With little ulcers on their tails
And all that cheese was made to please
Americans from the U.S.A.
While the American carouses
Where crimson shadows creep
The French avoid those houses
They go to bed to sleep
Only for Americans
A Frenchman wouldn't be impressed
To see a show with girls undressed
That's only for Americans
The French don't go to naked shows
They've seen what's underneath the clothes
And each encore is only for
Americans from the U.S.A.
Only for Americans
The Frenchmen don't keep company
With south of France society
That's only for Americans
The Frenchman hasn't large amounts
To pay for Barons, Dukes and Counts
That you adore, they're only for
Americans from the U.S.A.
We like to keep the good relations
That nothing must upset
We give you decorations
That Frenchmen seldom get
Only for Americans
Our finest art is in the Louvre
The ones the experts don't approve
Are only for Americans
We keep an artist by the gate
To sign the paintings while you wait
Before they're dry, they're purchased by
Americans from the U.S.A.
But we can't do without them
We're simply mad about them
The Americans
The Americans
The Americans from the U.S.A.

Mexico (Luis Mariano)
Mexico
Composer(s): Raymond Vincy; Francis Lopez
Performer(s): Luis Mariano
On a chanté les Parisiennes
Leurs petits nez et leurs chapeaux
On a chanté les Madrilènes
Qui vont aux arènes
Pour le toréro
On prétend que les Norvégiennes
Fille du Nord, ont le sang chaud
Et bien que les Américaines
Soient les souveraines
Du Monde Nouveau
On oublie tout
Sous le beau ciel de Mexico
On devient fou
Au son des rythmes tropicaux...
Le seul désir qui vous entraîne
Dès qu'on a quitté le bateau
C'est de goûter une semaine
L'aventure mexicaine
Au soleil de Mexico...
{Refrain:}
Mexico, Mexico...
Sous ton soleil qui chante
Le temps paraît trop court
Pour goûter au bonheur de chaque jour
Mexico, Mexico...
Tes femmes sont ardentes
Et tu seras toujours
Le Paradis des cœurs
Et de l'Amour
Une aventure mexicaine
Sous le soleil de Mexico
Ça dure à peine une semaine
Mais quelle semaine
Et quel crescendo...
Le premier soir on se promène
On danse un tendre boléro
Puis le deuxième on se déchaine
Plus rien ne vous freine
On part au galop...
On oublie tout
Sous le beau ciel de Mexico
On devient fou
Au son des rythmes tropicaux...
Si vous avez un jour la veine
De pouvoir prendre le bateau
Allez goûter une semaine
A l'aventure mexicaine
Au soleil de Mexico...
{Refrain}
Mexico Mexico Mexico Mexico

Only Fools And Horses
Only Fools And Horses
Composer(s): John Sullivan
Performer(s): John Sullivan
Opening Theme:
Stick a pony in me pocket
I'll fetch the suitcase from the van
Cos if you want the best 'uns
But you don't ask questions
Then brother, I'm your man
Cos where it all comes from is a mystery
It's like the changin' of the seasons
And the tides of the sea
But here's the one that's drivin' me beserk
Why do only fools and horses work?
La-la-la
La-lala-la
La-la-la
La-lala-la
Closing Theme:
We've got some half price cracked ice and miles and miles of carpet tiles
T.V.s, deep freeze and David Bowie L.P.'s
Ball games, gold chains, whatsnames, pictures frames and leather goods
And Trevor Francis track suits from a mush in Shepherds Bush
Bush, bush, bush, bush, bush, bush, bush ...
No income tax, no V.A.T.
No money back, no guarantee
Black or white, rich or poor
We'll cut prices at a stroke......
God bless Hooky Street
Viva Hooky Street
Long live Hooky Street
C'est magnifique, Hooky Street
Magnifique, Hooky Street
Hooky Street (to fade)

Mexico (Jefferson Airplane)
Mexico
Composer(s): Grace Slick
Performer(s): Jefferson Airplane
Owsley and Charlie, twins of the trade
Come to the Poet's Room
Talking about the problems of the leaf
And yes, it'll be back soon
There used to be tons of gold and green
Comin' up here from Mexico
A donde esta la planta, mi amigo, del sol?
But Mexico is under the thumb
Of a man we call Richard
And he's come to call himself king
But he's a small-headed man
And he doesn't know a thing
About how to deal for you
How to deal for you
There are millions of you now
I mean it's not as if you were alone
There are brothers everywhere
Just waiting for a toke on that gold
And God knows how far it can go
But thanks Uncle Charlie
For your Mexican smoke
You're a legend Owsley
For your righteous dope
There were a half a million people on the lawn
And we sang to the faces in the dark
How long must that damn race
Wait for the jailer's time to end?
How long must the Panther race
Wait for the iron bars to bend?
And no no no no no nobody waits

Only Believe
Only Believe
Composer(s): Paul Rader
Performer(s): Elvis Presley;
Cedarmont Kids; Bishop Andrew Merrit
Lordy, only believe, only believe
All things are possible
If you'll only believe
My Lordy, only believe, yes only believe
All things are possible
If you'll only believe
I met God one morning, my soul feeling bad
Heart heavy laden I felt fire, doubt ahead
Well He lifted all my burdens
Yeh! right now I'm feeling glad
All things are possible
If you'll only believe
I believe, yeh! I believe
All things are possible
If you'll only believe

Mexico (James Taylor)
Mexico
Composer(s): James Taylor
Originally performed by: James Taylor
Way down here you need a reason to move
Feel a fool running your stateside games
Lose your load, leave your mind behind, Baby James
Oh, Mexico
It sounds so simple I just got to go
The sun's so hot I forgot to go home
Guess I'll have to go now
"Americano" got the sleepy eye
But his body's still shaking like a live wire
Sleepy "Señorita" with the eyes on fire
Oh, Mexico
It sounds so sweet with the sun sinking low
Moon's so bright like to light up the night
Make everything all right
Baby's hungry and the money's all gone
The folks back home don't want to talk on the phone
She gets a long letter, sends back a postcard; times are hard
Oh, down in Mexico
I never really been so I don't really know
Oh, Mexico
I guess I'll have to go
Oh, Mexico
I never really been but I'd sure like to go
Oh, Mexico
I guess I'll have to go now

Performer(s): Petula Clark - 1960
Enfant du voyage
Ton lit c'est la mer
Ton toit les nuages
Eté comme hiver
Ta maison c'est l'océan
Tes amis sont les étoiles
Tu n'as qu'une fleur au cœur
Et c'est la rose des vents
Ton amour est un bateau
Qui te berce dans ses voiles
Mais n'oublie pas pour autant
Que l'on t'attend
Enfant du voyage
Ton cœur s'est offert
Au vent, aux nuages
Là-bas sur la mer
Mais tu sais que dans un port
Tremblant à chaque sirène
Une fille aux cheveux d'or
Perdue dans le vent du nord
Une fille aux cheveux d'or
Compte les jours et les semaines
Et te garde son amour
Pour ton retour

Only Because Of You
Only Because Of You
Composer(s): Roger Hodgson
Performer(s): Roger Hodgson
And so we sail towards the dawn
Joining those who gently mourn for you
It's only because of you
Friends may come and friends may go
The only friend I need to know is you
It's only because of you
Mighty castles, lonely kings
Hear the ragged children sing it's you
It's only because of you
He who smiles at lofty schemes
Stems the tide of broken dreams is you
It's only because of you
It's only because of you
And when the storms have died away
Only truth will like to say it's you
It's only because of you
And when the darkness flies away
Only love will shine to say it's true
It's only because of you
It's only because of you

Mexican Radio
Mexican Radio
Composer(s): Charles T. Gray; Marc Moreland;
Joe Nanini; Stan Ridgeway
Originally performed by: Wall of Voodoo
Covered by various other artists
I feel a hot wind on my shoulder
And the touch of a world that is older
I turn the switch and check the number
I leave it on when in bed I slumber
I hear the rhythms of the music
I buy the product and never use it
I hear the talking of the DJ
Can't understand just what does he say?
I'm on a mexican radio
I'm on a mexican radio
I dial it in and tune the station
They talk about the U.S. inflation
I understand just a little
No comprende, it's a riddle
I'm on a mexican radio
I'm on a mexican radio
I wish I was in Tijuana
Eating barbequed iguana
I'd take requests on the telephone
I'm on a wavelength far from home
I feel a hot wind on my shoulder
I dial it in from south of the border
I hear the talking of the DJ
Can't understand just what does he say?
I'm on a mexican radio
I'm on a mexican radio
I'm on a mexican radio
I'm on a mexican radio
Radio radio...
What does he say?

Only Because Of Love
Only Because Of Love
Performer(s): Shaun Cassidy
If you said I could fly -- I'd believe you
Without wondering why -- I'd believe you
Oh, some secret that you got inside
Is pullin' me along for a ride
But everything's all right
Only because of love
Would I surrender control
Share my heart, bear my soul
Only because of love
Only because of love
If you said I'm a fool -- I'd believe you
But I can tell you this fool is never ever
Gonna leave you
Oh, a power that is strong as steel
A strength that anyone can feel
Never let you go

Mexicali Rose stop crying
I'll come back to you some sunny day
Every night you'll know that I'll be pining
Every hour a year while I'm away
Dry those big brown eyes and smile dear
Banish all those tears and please don't sigh
Kiss me once again and hold me
Mexicali Rose, goodbye
Dry those big brown eyes and smile dear
Banish all those tears and please don't sigh
Kiss me once again and hold me
Mexicali Rose, goodbye

Only An Ocean Away
Only An Ocean Away
Composer(s): Per Andréason; Don Black
Performer(s): Sarah Brightman
I see a shadow every day and night
I walk a hundred streets of neon lights
Only when I'm crying
Can you hear me crying
So many times you always wanted more
Chasing illusions that you're longing for
Wish I wasn't crying
Can you hear me crying
There's an ocean between us
You know where to find me
You reach out and touch me
I feel you in my own heart
More than a lifetime
Still goes on forever
But it helps to remember
You're only an ocean away
Was there a moment when I felt no pain
I want to feel it in my life again
Let it be over now
Oh Oh over now
'Cause I remember all the days and nights
We used to walk the streets of neon lights
Oh I want you here with me
Oh be here with me
There's an ocean between us
You know where to find me
You reach out and touch me
I feel you in my own heart
More than a lifetime
Still goes on forever
But it helps to remember
You're only an ocean away
So many times you always wanted more
Chasing illusions that you're longing for
Wish I wasn't crying
Can you hear me crying
There's an ocean between us
You know where to find me
Just reach out and touch me
I feel you in my own heart
More than a lifetime
It seems like forever
But I'll always remember
You're only an ocean away
Only an ocean away

Meurtre À L'extincteur
Meurtre À L'extincteur
Composer(s): Serge Gainsbourg
Performer(s): Serge Gainsbourg
Pour éteindre le feu au cul de Marilou
Un soir n'en pouvant plus de jalousie
J'ai couru au couloir de l'hôtel décrocher de son clou
L'extincteur d'incendie
Brandissant le cylindre
D'acier je frappe paf et Marilou se met à geindre
De son crâne fendu s'échappe un sang vermeil
Identique au rouge sanglant de l'appareil
Elle a sur le lino
Un dernier soubresaut
Une ultime secousse
J'appuie sur la manette
Le corps de Marilou disparaît sous la mousse
