Call Me (Come Back Home)


Call Me (Come Back Home)
Composer(s): Al Green - Willie Mitchell - Al Jackson
Performer(s): Al Green; Ronnie Aldrich & His Two Pianos



Call me call me call me
What a beautiful time we had together
Now it's gettin' late and we must leave each other
Just remember the time we had
And how right I tried to be
It's all in a day's work
Call me
Losing your love, acting foolishly
Go on and take your time 'cause you're only losing me
Love is a long ways from here
Tell you it's all in the way you feel
If your love is real
Come to me
Call me call me call me come back home
The best thing I can do is give back your love
Let you go away feelin' free as a dove
If you find you're a long ways from home
And somebody's doing you wrong
Just call on me baby
And come back home
Call me call me call me come back home

False Faces


False Faces
Composer(s): Dan Fogelberg
Performer(s): Dan Fogelberg



Oil on canvas
Couplets and stanzas
To divine who you are
Pencil portrayals and
Jealous betrayals
Get you further afar

False faces and
Meaningless chases
I travel alone
First places and
Calendar races
I need a home

Hostile hotel walls
Footfalls and phone calls
And you're on the line
Gentle coercions and
Bitter desertions
When the truth is a lie

False faces and
Meaningless chases
I travel alone
First places and
Calendar races
I need a home

Lover twice yearly
That last battle nearly
Cost me the fight
Broke through the ice
And got cut down
to size
And escaped
through the night

False faces and
Meaningless chases
I travel alone
First places and
Calendar races
I need a home

The Age For Love


The Age For Love
Composer(s): Latimer - Wells
Performer(s): Jimmy Charles; Glenda Collins



Too young to be in love, they say
Too young to know the score
When will we come to the age for love
That's what we're waiting for

We know our love would pass the test
If we could have the chance
Well, any age is the age for love
The age for sweet romance

Can we explain
The true way we feel
How can we show them
Our love is real

Someday we'll find a way to prove
We're not too young at all
They'll realise that the age for love
Is ageless after all

They'll realise that the age for love
Is ageless after all

Falsa


Falsa
Composer(s): Juan B. Leonardo
Performer(s): Javier Solis;
and various other artists



Quise hallar en otros besos el alivio
al cruel daño que tu engaño me causara
Y al buscar en el aliento de otras bocas
el perfume que embriagaba mi tristeza

Encontré que también ellas mentían
y fingían como tú lo hacías conmigo
finalmente comprendo que en la vida
todo es falso pero tú eres mucho más

Encontré que también ellas mentían
y fingían como tú lo hacías conmigo
finalmente comprendo que en la vida
todo es falso pero tú eres mucho más

Aero Space Age Inferno


Aero Space Age Inferno
Performer(s): Hawkwind



A flight of steel eagles tearing by
The ripped silk screaming of the rended sky
Flame on through sound and make time fly
What a good way to go...
What a good way to go

In the aero space age... inferno

Fly through the ground like a circus hound
Through the burning hoop in just one bound
So not even your ashes will be found
What a good way to go...
What a good way to go

In the aero space age... inferno

Set the controls for the heart of the Earth
The silver machine's worth more than you're worth
But the phoenix soul is bound for rebirth
What a good way to go...
What a good way to go

In the aero space age... inferno

Falling Out Of Love Can Be Fun


Falling Out Of Love Can Be Fun
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
Performer(s): Mary McCarty;
and various other artists



Crocodile tears will not be shed
They're not for a lady like I'm
I can recall what my aunt said
When she married for the twentieth time

Falling out of love can be fun
After love is over and done
It's an awful blow and although it's upsetting
So much you can do while you're forgetting
Falling out of love can be fun

When you've find your lover has gone
Get your second wind and go on
There's an old affair that is there for renewing
In your grief, do you know what you're doing?
Falling out of love can be fun

Soon, you'll be swinging in a hammock on a porch
One arm wrapped around someone else
The other arm carrying a torch

Love can give a lady a clout
And she may be down but not out
Get yourself a date, don't you wait for the count of ten, then
Falling out of love can be falling in love again

Falling out of love can be fun
Someone else can soon be the one
By another name, he's the same as his brother
Close your eyes and one is like the other
Falling out of love can be fun

When he goes before you have wed
And the stork is over your head
Soon you're gonna be with a she or a laddie
Smile as you go shopping for a daddy
Falling out of love can be fun

Soon, you'll be losing all your troubles and your fears
One eye winking at someone else
The other eye filling up with tears

When you find your lovin' romance
Gets a sudden kick in the pants
Get yourself surrounded and bounded with lots of men, then
Falling out of love can be falling in love again

The Adventures Of Robin Hood


The Adventures Of Robin Hood
Composer(s): Carl Sigman



Robin Hood, Robin Hood, riding through the glen
Robin Hood, Robin Hood, with his band of men
Feared by the bad, loved by the good
Robin Hood! Robin Hood! Robin Hood!

He called the greatest archers to a tavern on the green
They vowed to help the people of the King
They handled all the trouble on the English country scene
And still found plenty of time to sing

Robin Hood, Robin Hood, riding through the glen
Robin Hood, Robin Hood, with his band of men
Feared by the bad, loved by the good
Robin Hood! Robin Hood! Robin Hood!

Falling Leaves


Falling Leaves
Composer(s): Grandpa Jones; Louis Jones
Performer(s): Grandpa Jones;
Pam Linton; Cliff Waldron; Billy Walker



By the grave site of this near forgotten man
On this cold November morning here I stand
Thinking of the friends he lost for the love of gold
This story through the years has often been told

Falling leaves that lie scattered on the ground
The birds and flowers that were here cannot be found
All the friends that he once knew are not around
They're all scattered like the leaves upon the ground

Some folks drift along through life and never thrill
To the feeling that a good deed brings until
It's too late and they are ready to lie down
There beneath the leaves that's scattered on the ground

Lord, let my eyes see every need of every man
Make me stop and always lend a helping hand
Then when I'm laid beneath that little grassy mound
There'll be more friends around than leaves upon the ground

To your grave there's no use taking any gold
You cannot use it when it's time for hands to fold
When you leave this earth for a better home someday
The only thing you'll take is what you gave away

Jim Bowie! Jim Bowie!
He was a fighter, a fearless and mighty adventurin' man!
He roamed the wilderness unafraid

He was a fighter, a fearless and mighty adventurin' man!

Falling In Love With Love


Falling In Love With Love
Composer(s): Lorenz Hart; Richard Rodgers
Performer(s): Frances Langford;
and various other artists



Falling in love with love is falling for make-believe
Falling in love with love is playing the fool
Caring too much is such a juvenile fancy
Learning to trust is just for children in school

I fell in love with love one night when the moon was full
I was unwise with eyes unable to see
I fell in love with love, with love everlasting
But love fell out with me

Oh, I fell in love with love one night when the moon was full
I was unwise with eyes unable to see
I fell in love with love, with love everlasting
But love fell out with me

Do I Love You Because You're Beautiful


Do I Love You Because You're Beautiful
Composer(s): Richard Rodgers - Oscar Hammerstein II
Performer(s): Julie Andrews & Jon Cypher
and multiple other artists



Prince:
Do I love you because you're beautiful, or are you beautiful because I love you?
Am I making believe I see in you a girl too lovely to be really true?
Do I want you because you're wonderful, or are you wonderful because I want you?
Are you the sweet invention of a lover's dream or are you really as beautiful as you seem?

Cinderella:
Am I making believe I see in you a man too perfect to be really true?
Do I want you because you're wonderful, or are you wonderful because I want you?

Both: Are you the sweet invention of a lover's dream or are you really as wonderful as you seem?

Piep-piep-hallo, piep-piep-hallo, Calimero
Piep-piep-hoi, piep-piep-hoi, Calimero
Piep-piep-nou, piep-piep-nou, Calimero
Op zijn koppie staat een eierdop
O-hoi-o-hoi-o-hoi

Calimero is een heel lief kuikentje
(Calimero: "ja, dat is ik ook!")
Hij vindt alles leuk en goed
Er steekt geen kwaad in hij doet!

Piep-piep-hoi, piep-piep-hoi, Calimero
Piep-piep-ja, piep-piep-ja, Calimero
Piep-piep-nou, piep-piep-nou, Calimero
Op zijn koppie staat een eierdop

Hoor is hoe ik dingen kan, Calimero
Papa houdt er niet zo van, Calimero
Maar ik vind het toch zo fijn, Calimero
Mama zegt waarom m'n kind
Het is goed om blij te zijn

Piep-piep-hoi, piep-piep-hoi, Calimero
Piep-piep-ja, piep-piep-ja, Calimero
Piep-piep-nou, piep-piep-nou, Calimero

Piep-piep-nou, piep-piep-nou, Calimero
Op zijn koppie staat hij een eierdop

Ik zou zo graag iets groter zijn, Calimero
en meedoen aan een zangfestijn, Calimero
Maar dat lukt nog niet zo gauw, Calimero
Papa zegt je droomt te veel
En dat vind ik flauw
Calimero is een heel lief kuikentje
(Calimero: "En zo hoort het ook!")
Hij vindt alles leuk en goed
Er steekt geen kwaad in hij doet!

Piep-piep-hallo, piep-piep-hallo, Calimero

Falling In Love Again


Falling In Love Again Adapted from: Ich Bin Von Kopf Bis Fuß Auf Liebe Eingestellt - 1929/1930 Composer(s): Friedrich Holländer; Sammy Lerner Performer(s): Marlene Dietrich - 1930 Covered by multiple other artists



Falling in love again
Never wanted to
What am I to do?
Can't help it

Love's always been my game
Play it as I may
I was born that way
Can't help it

Men flock around me
Like moths around a flame
And if their wings burn
I know I'm not to blame

Falling in love again
Never wanted to
What am I to do?
Can't help it

Love's always been my game
Play it as I may
I was born that way
Can't help it

Men flock around me
Like moths around a flame
And if their wings burn
I know I'm not to blame
