Ti amo, ma c'è un'altra che ti ama come me
e forse mentre parlo sta aspettando solo te
ma kiss me goodbye, ora tu te ne vai
e così è finita per noi
torna da lei io non voglio che tu
resti qui un solo attimo di più
Kiss me goodbye questa notte e vedrai
una stella d'argento per noi
non piangerò se tu non vorrai
amore, kiss me goodbye
Amore sono io che ti dico va da lei
domani avrò tempo di asciugare gli occhi miei
ma kiss me goodbye, ora tu te ne vai

Kiss me goodbye questa notte e vedrai

To Be Your Man
To Be Your Man
Composer(s): Don Williams - Danny Flowers
Performer(s): Don Williams & Garth Fundis
Be my love, be my friend
Help me grow, help me bend
Understand, now and then, when I do wrong
It's for you that I try
I will live till the day I die
Giving all, all that I can
To be your man
High on a hill, standing alone
I'll tell the world everything I've loved
Raise my hand, testify
My love is real
When I laugh, when I cry
I would never, never lie
I'll do all, all that I can
To be your man
So, be my love, be my friend
Help me grow, help me bend
Understand, now and then, when I do wrong
Well it's for you that I try
I will live till the day I die
Giving all, all that I can
To be your man
When we're old, old and gray
And the children have moved away
And it's time, our time again, for being alone
Then you'll look, look and see
Love's been good to you and me
Understand, it's my plan
To be your man
So won't you be my love, be my friend
Help me grow, help me bend
Understand, now and then, when I do wrong
Well it's for you that I try
I will live till the day I die
Giving all, all that I can
To be your man

Jealous (Fleetwood Mac)
Jealous
Composer(s): Bob Welch
Performer(s): Fleetwood Mac
It's easy to see why
'Cause I look in those green eyes
And I fall in love with her
All over again
Yeah, but this can be dangerous
'Cause those green eyes seem to say yes
So easily and to so many men
(chorus)
Well I know I've got a jealous heart
A jealous mind
But I'm trying to keep a hold of my girl
Now loving so caring
But sometimes she's daring
And those big green eyes
They set you up for a fall
Now I'm tryin' to keep her
But I just can't reach her
That with me it's all
Or nothing at all
(repeat chorus)

Love At Last You Have Found Me
Love At Last You Have Found Me
Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - Johnnie Worth
Performer(s): Liza Minnelli - 1966
Versions In Other Languages:
1959 - J'En Déduis Que Je T'Aime (Charles Aznavour)
1964 - Ne Deduco Che T'amo (Charles Aznavour)
Is it true what I feel
Is sunsine really rain
Is laughter really pain
Do flowers cry in sorrow
Do the rivers that flow
Turn salty by the sea
Bitter teardrops for me
Is life just one tomorrow
Love at last you have found me
Love at last you have found me
Does a kiss mean a fire
That never knows a flame
Does my heart play a game
By telling me I'm living
Are my words not my own
The stupid things I say
Like a child making play
I don't know what I'm giving
Love at last you have found me
Love at last you have found me, but
Now the storm begins
The wild, exotic wind
Soft words caressed with pain
Sweet smiles that hide a look of shame
Madness in our sighs
Then fickle tears and rice
But I will face it all
To look into your eyes
You have conquered my soul
And taken me away
Blindly groping my way
Not knowing, never caring
In the stillness of night
I feel you by my side
And yet I want to hide
From sadness we are sharing
Love at last you have found me
Love at last you have found me
So this is my way
Have others gone before
Is love an open door
Mine just for the taking or
Will I be afraid
So lost and so alone
Are your lips mine alone
What is this we are making
Love at last you have found me
Love at last you are mine

I Couldn't Sleep A Wink Last Night
I Couldn't Sleep A Wink Last Night
German Title: Ich Hab' Die Ganze Nacht Geweint
Composer(s): Harold Adamson; Jimmy McHugh
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra
I couldn't sleep a wink last night
Because we had that silly fight
I thought my heart would break the whole night through
I knew that you'd be sorry, and I'm sorry, too
I didn't have my favorite dream
The one in which I hold you tight
I had to call you up this morning
To see if everything was still all right
Yes, I had to call you up this morning
'cause I couldn't sleep a wink last night
I didn't have my favorite dream
The one in which I hold you tight
I had to call you up this morning
To see if everything was still all right
Yes, I had to call you up this morning
'cause I couldn't sleep a wink last night

Je Voyage
Je Voyage
Composer(s): Charles Aznavour; Jean-Pierre Bourtayre
Performer(s): Charles & Katia Aznavour
[Katia]:
Dis, que fais-tu là l'homme au soleil sur ce banc
Le regard perdu sous tes cheveux d'argent
[Charles]:
Je regarde fuir mes ultimes printemps
Emportés par mille chevaux blancs
Je voyage, je voyage
Vers les lieux bénis de ma vie
De voyages en voyages
A travers erreurs et acquis
Sans bagage, par image
Par le rêve et par la pensée
De voyages en voyages
Sur les vagues de mon passé
[Katia]:
Ce voyage dans les limites
De vos regrets, de vos remords
Est-ce un refuge est-ce une fuite
Ou bien une aventure encore
[Charles]:
Sur l'eau calme de mon âge
Où l'orage ne tonne plus
De mirages en mirages
Vers mes plages de temps perdu
Je voyage
Et toi jeune fille aux sources de ta vie
Fugueuse à seize ans que fais-tu par ici
[Katia]:
Je vais au devant du comprendre et savoir
Voir la vie de l'envers des miroirs
Je voyage, je voyage
Et je cours pour aller de l'avant
De voyages en voyages
Sac au dos cheveux dans le vent
Parfois folle, parfois sage
Refusant les idées reçues
De voyages en voyages
Dans l'espoir de trouver un but
[Charles]:
Tu es l'enfant d'entre deux guerres
D'un monde cru au désarroi
D'hommes et de femmes de misères
Sous le joug du chacun pour soi
[Katia]:
De rivages en rivages
Pour des grèves à découvrir
De mirages en mirages
Vers les rives de l'avenir
[Charles][Katia]:
Je voyage, je voyage
Un peu plus de jour et de nuit
De voyages en voyages
A travers rêves et insomnies
Par temps clair ou d'orage
D'un pied léger ou d'un pas lourd
De mirages en mirages
Par la mémoire et par amour
Je voyage

To Be Worthy Of You
To Be Worthy Of You
Composer(s): Walter Gross - Ray Klages
Performer(s): Frankie Laine
You're so near and yet so far away
Can I hope to share your love someday?
I'd give anything that I possess
If I could only prove my worthiness
To be worthy of you
Will be the dream of my life
The thing supreme in my life
To be worthy of you
Can I hope for romance?
Will I find love in your glance?
Is there a ghost of a chance
To be worthy of you?
You're my heart and my soul
My life and love you control
This one desire is my goal
To be worthy of you
Will the day come for me
When I'm all you want me to be?
There's nothing I wouldn't do
To be worthy of you
To be worthy of you
Will be the dream of my life
The thing supreme in my life
To be worthy of you
Can I hope for romance?
Will I find love in your glance?
Is there a ghost of a chance
To be worthy of you?
You're my heart and my soul
My life and love you control
This one desire is my goal
To be worthy of you
Will the day come for me
When I'm all you want me to be?
There's nothing I wouldn't do
To be worthy of you

I Couldn't Say Goodbye
I Couldn't Say Goodbye
Composer(s): Albert Hammond; Diane Warren
Performer(s): Tom Jones; The Sultans
I watch you as you're sleeping
As I'm standing at the door
I don't want to let you go
But I can't hold on anymore
I just can't find the strength
To say I'm leaving you
It's over now, it's over now
And there's nothing I can do
I couldn't say goodbye
Couldn't stand the pain
Couldn't watch you cry
Knowing that your heart would break
So I let you sleep
Till the morning light
When you wake up and you read the note I write
Telling you that I, I couldn't say goodbye
I'm walking down this rainy street
Thinking you're awake by now
As you read my letter
And the tears fall from your eyes
Just know I tried to make it work
It just wasn't meant to be
I needed you, I needed you
But not the way you needed me
I couldn't say goodbye
Couldn't stand the pain
Couldn't watch you cry
Knowing that your heart would break
So I let you sleep
Till the morning light
When you wake up and you read the note I write
Telling you that I, I couldn't say goodbye
I didn't mean to hurt you
I didn't want to make you cry
It's over now, yes it's over now
I just couldn't say goodbye
I couldn't say goodbye
Couldn't stand the pain
Couldn't watch you cry
Knowing that your heart would break
So I let you sleep
Till the morning light
When you wake up and you read the note I write
Telling you that I, I couldn't say goodbye

Maintenant et à tout à l'heure

Venise va mourir un jour
Venise va mourir
Je ne peux pas imaginer
Sans un soupir
Qu'un jour Venise au fond de l'eau
Verra passer tous les bateaux
Comme une épave de lumière
Un roman sous la mer
Venise a des blessures
Sur chaque pierre de chaque mur
Des sérénades à faire pleurer
Le monde entier
Venise a des colombes
Qui ont choisi ce coin du monde
Et qui un jour ne sauront plus
Où se poser, jamais, jamais
Venise va mourir un jour
Venise va mourir un jour
On voit, en plein hiver
S'ouvrir la mer
Et puis Venise disparait
C'est comme si tu me disais
Qu'un jour la terre à son réveil
Perdait son soleil
Venise m'appartient
Tous ses palais, tous ses jardins
Ses cathédrales et ses clochers
Doivent rester
Parce que Venise à trop d'amants
Qui meurent un peu en se disant
On vit d'amour et que Venise va mourir
Un jour, un jour, un jour

I Couldn't Live Without Your Love
I Couldn't Live Without Your Love
Composer(s): Tony Hatch; Jackie Trent
Performer(s): Petula Clark
and multiple other artists
You're the only one that I rely on
A shoulder there for me to cry on
And the hours alone that I'm without you
All I ever do is think about you
No one knows that you so understanding
Even though my love is so demanding
Everytime you look at me
Then you'll know we'll both agree
That no other love for me
I couldn't live without your love
Now I know you're really mine
Gotta have you all the time
Didn't like you much when I first met you
But somehow I couldn't quite forget you
Said you didn't want a friend or lover
That your life was happy with another
But as time went by my love grew stronger
Knew that I just couldn't wait any longer
For I couldn't let you know
When I have to tell you so
That I love you then you know
I couldn't live without your love
Now I know you're really mine
Gotta have you all the time
Now the tears are gone and I'm not crying
When you say you love me you're not lying
So when people want to stare
I know I don't really care
Just as long as you are there
I couldn't live without your love
Now I know you're really mine
Gotta have you all the time
I couldn't live without your love
Now I know you're really mine
Gotta have you all the time

Ne priez plus pour moi
Ne me laissez pas succomber
A la tentation
Mais délivrez-moi de vous
Une bonne fois pour toujours
Je vous salue Madame
Ne priez plus pour moi
Je ne vous pardonne pas
D'avoir laissé un jour
Prendre sous votre nom
Par un autre que moi
Je vous salue Madame
Ne priez plus pour moi
Donnez-moi aujourd'hui
Et pour la dernière fois
Un baiser tout petit
Qui ne m'arrêtera pas
Je vous salue Madame
Ne priez plus pour moi
Je vous salue Madame
Ne priez plus pour moi

To be the one you love
To see forever in your eyes
To know there’ll be no more goodbyes
Now I have you
To be the hand you reach to hold
And never think of growing old
To live the greatest story told
Of love come true with you
To share what fate may bring
A time to cry, a time to sing
To know my world has everything
Now I have you
To leave the shadows of the night
And touch your face at morning light
To know how lucky I must be
To be the one you love
The one you love
The one you love

While putting some new strings on my old guitar
I know just what I'm gonna do

I realize now after all those hard times
And Lord knows we've had us a few
Together forever, where ever we are
I couldn't be me without you
I couldn't be me without you
I couldn't be me without you

Je Vous Offre
Composer(s): Salvatore Adamo
Performer(s): Salvatore Adamo
Parce que mon cœur lassé de tant d'ennuis
Lassé de solitude amoureux d'une fleur
Implore dans sa nuit la douceur d'une sœur
Aujourd'hui auprès de vous je viens jouer ma vie
Je vous offre mon temps, mes chagrins, mes tristesses
Je vous offre le gris des jours passés sans bruit
Je vous offrirais bien des bouquets de promesses
Si je savais qu'un jour vous m'aviez pour époux
Je vous offre ce qui mets resté jeunesse
Ses colliers de je t'aime que pour moi vous tressez
Dans ses rêves lointains où vous m'apparaissiez
Dans ce pays d'amour vous étiez princesse
Je vous offre ces choses qui n'arrivent jamais
Je vous offre un printemps en plein cœur de décembre
Je vous offre un Noël au joli mois de mai
Je vous offre le ciel que je vois de ma chambre
Je ne veux rien de vous que votre main tremblante
Pour la poser captive douce et frêle sur mon cou
J'n'veux rien de vous que votre âme confiante
J'n'veux rien de plus que m'offrir à genoux

I Could Write A Book
I Could Write A Book
Composer(s): Lorenz Hart; Richard Rodgers
First performance: Gene Kelly & Leila Ernst - 1940
Covered by multiple other artists
A-B-C-D-E-G
I never learned to spell
At least not well
1-2-3-4-5-6-7
I never learned to count
A great amount
But my busy mind is burning
To use what learning I've got
I won't waste any time
I'll strike while the iron is hot
If they asked me, I could write a book
About the way you walk and whisper and look
I could write a preface on how we met
So the world would never forget
And the simple secret of the plot
Is just to tell them that I love you a lot
Then the world discovers as my book ends
How to make two lovers a friend
Use to hate to go to school
I never cracked a book
I played the hook
Never answered any mail
To write I used to think was wasting ink
It was never my endeavor
To be too clever and smart
Now I suddenly feel
A longing to write in my heart
If they asked me, I could write a book
About the way you walk and whisper and look
I could write a preface on how we met
So the world would never forget
And the simple secret of the plot
Is just to tell them that I love you a lot
Then the world discovers as my book ends
How to make two lovers a friend
