(This Is A) Song For The Lonely
(This Is A) Song For The Lonely
Composer(s): Paul Barry;
M. Taylor; Steve Torch
Performer(s): Cher; Share & Share Alike
When you're standing on the edge of nowhere
There's only one way up
So your heart's got to go there
Through the darkest night
See the light shine bright
When hero's fall, in love or war
They live forever
(Chorus)
This is a song - for the lonely
Can you hear me tonight
For the broken hearted, battle scared I'll
Be by your side
And this is a song - for the lonely
When your dreams won't come true
Can you hear this prayer
'Coz someone's there for you
We'll love don't need a reason
She can pick you up
Or leave you bleeding
I've seen a strong man cry
I know the reason why
We all forgive, we all forget
We just keep believing
(Chorus)
So let it find you
Wherever you may go
I'm right beside you
You don't have to look no more
You don't have to look no more, oh no
(Chorus)
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
This is a song
A song for the lonely
And that's not you only
Through the darkest night
You're gonna see the light
Love don't need a reason
Just to leave you bleeding
Can you hear this prayer
Someone's there
This is a song - for the lonely
Can you hear me tonight
For the broken hearted, battle scared
I'll be by your side
And this is a song
For the lonely

La Vie À 25 Ans
La Vie À 25 Ans
Composer(s): Christine Fontane
First performance by: Dani - 1974
Comme disait le vieux Sébastien
"Y'a pas de mal à se faire du bien"
La vie c'est du cinéma
Qu'on ne regarde qu'une fois
Pourquoi bouder son désir
Quand y'a de la gêne, y'a pas de plaisir
Moi je dis tout simplement
C'est beau la vie à vingt cinq ans
Y'a pas de mal tu sais à se faire du bien
La la la
Y'a pas de mal et ça ne coûte rien
Prends ton coeur et ta vie par la main
La la la
On est sur la terre
Pour se laisser faire
Y'a pas de mal à se faire du bien
La la la la la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la la la
Toi, tu coupes, tu tailles, tu tranches
Ta vie n'est pas un dimanche
Tu réfléchis, tu t'inquiètes
Tu calcules et tu perds la tête
Pourquoi chercher à comprendre
Prends ce qui se laisse prendre
À toujours forcer ton coeur
Tu passes à côté du meilleur
Y'a pas de mal tu sais à se faire du bien
La la la
Y'a pas de mal et ça ne coûte rien
Prends ton coeur et ta vie par la main
La la la
On est sur la terre
Pour se laisser faire
Y'a pas de mal à se faire du bien
La la la la la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la la la
Quand j'aime, je le crie bien haut
Et j'en profite autant qu'il faut
Moi je vis tout simplement
C'est bien la vie à vingt cinq ans
Y'a pas de mal tu sais à se faire du bien
La la la
Y'a pas de mal et ça ne coûte rien.
Prends ton coeur et ta vie par la main
La la la
On est sur la terre
Pour se laisser faire
Y'a pas de mal à se faire du bien
La la la la la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la la la
Pas de mal tu sais à se faire du bien
La la la
Y'a pas de mal et ça ne coûte rien
Prends ton coeur et ta vie par la main
La la la
On est sur la terre
Pour se laisser faire
Y'a pas de mal à se faire du bien

(There's No) Gettin' Over Me
(There's No) Gettin' Over Me
Composer(s): Walt Aldridge; Tom Brasfield
Performer(s): Ronnie Milsap; Big Mountain
Well you can walk out on me tonight
If you think that it ain't feelin' right
But darlin'
There ain't no gettin' over me
Well you can say that you need to be free
But there ain't no place that I won't be
Sweet darlin'
There ain't no gettin' over me
I'll be the bill you forgot to pay
I'll be the dream that keeps you awake
I'll be the song on the radio
I'll be the reason that you tell the boys no
Don't you know
You can tell everyone that we're through
You might even believe it too
But darlin'
There's ain't no gettin' over me
Sweet darlin'
There ain't no gettin' over me
I'll be the face that you see in a crowd
I'll be the times that you cry out loud
I'll be the smile when there's no one around
I'll be the book that you just can't put down
So you can walk out on me tonight
If you think that it ain't feelin' right
But darlin'
There ain't no getting over me
You'll see
Sweet, darlin'
There ain't no gettin' over me
No, no, no, no, no Darlin'
There ain't no gettin' over me
Ooooh, mmmm
No, darlin'
There ain't no gettin' over me
Ooooh, darlin'
There ain't no gettin' over me

Slow Down Sweet Mama
Slow Down Sweet Mama
Composer(s): Leon Chappel
Performer(s): Leon Chappel
Slow down sweet mama
Now, can't you see you're killin' me
Lord, I'm tired of your two-timin'
And the way you're doggin' me
I'm sick and tired of talkin'
Tryin' to get you to slow down
She come home this mornin'
The sun was shinin' bright as day
Out all night, sweet mama
With your low down triflin' way
I'm fed up and disgusted
You can't be trusted, night or day
So, slow down sweet mama
You're way ahead of me a mile
Lord, I can't keep up sweet mama
With your speedy streamline style
I'm sick and tired of talkin'
Tryin' to get that gal to slow down
Yes, yes, yes
Why don't you slow down, honey
Take your time, take your time
Go slow sweet mama
Why don't you try to please behave
She's sure mean mistreatin'
Your Poppa's hair is turnin' gray
Lord, I'm sick and tired of pleadin'
Tryin' to get my gal to slow down
I've tried sweet mama
To make you love me and do right
But it just ain't in you, mama
You're honky-tonkin' every night
I'm sick and tired of talkin'
Tryin' to get that gal to slow down
Now, so long sweet mama
You know you done your Poppa wrong
If you don't believe I'm leavin'
Mama, count the days I'm gone
'Cause I'm sick and tired of pleading
Tryin' to get that gal to slow down

(There's A) Goldmine In The Sky
Composer(s): Charles F. Kenny - Nick A. Kenny
Performer(s): Gene Autry
and multiple other artists
There's a goldmine in the sky far away
We will find it, you and I, some sweet day
There'll be clover just for you down the line
Where the skies are always blue, pal of mine
Take your time, old mule, I know you're growing lame
But you'll pasture in the stars when we strike that claim
And we'll sit up there and watch the world roll by (the world roll by)
When we find that long lost goldmine in the sky (in the sky)
Mmm-mmm-mmm (far away, far away), mmm-mmm-mmm (far away, far away)
Mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmmmmm
And we'll say hello to friends who said goodbye (who said goodbye)
When we find that long lost goldmine in the sky (far away in the sky)

(There's A) Bluebird On Your Windowsill
Composer(s): Elizabeth Clarke
Performer(s): Tex Williams; Doris Day;
Audrey Williams;
Wilf "Montana Slim" Carter
(There's a bluebird)
There's a bluebird
(There's a rainbow)
There's a bluebird on your windowsill
There's a rainbow in your sky
There are happy thoughts, your heart to fill
Near enough to make you cry
(There's a bluebird)
There he is
(There's a rainbow)
And with every tear you've washed away
All the things you've kept inside
You count your joys this lovely day
And you wonder why you cried
There's a bluebird on your windowsill
There's a rainbow in your sky
There are happy thoughts, your heart to fill
Near enough to make you cry
(There's a bluebird)
Look at him out there, ain't he pretty
(There's a rainbow)
And if perchance your heart grow sad
You still can smile again
And with every tear you've ever had
Comes the sunshine after rain
[Orchestral Break]
There's a bluebird
(Yes, yes)
There's a rainbow
(Hear, hear)
[Orchestral Break]
The rainy days may come and go
But the clouds soon roll away
Everything will come that you wish it so
As an answer when you pray
There's a bluebird on your windowsill
There's a rainbow in your sky
There're happy thoughts, your heart to fill
Near enough to make you cry
(There's a bluebird)
Cutest feathers
(There's a rainbow)
Lovely weather
(There's a bluebird)
Look at that bluebird and the rainbow in the sky

Slow Dancing
Slow Dancing
Composer(s): Jack Tempchin
Performer(s): Johnny Rivers
and multiple other artists
It's late at night and we're all alone, with just the music of the radio
No one's coming, no one's gonna telephone
Just me and you and the lights down low - and we're
Slow dancing, swaying to the music, slow dancing, just me and my girl
Slow dancing, swaying to the music, no one else in the whole wide world
Just you, girl
And we just flow together when the lights are low
And shadows dancing across the wall
The music's playing so soft and low
And the rest of the world so far away and small
Slow dancing, swaying to the music, slow dancing, just me and my girl
Slow dancing, swaying to the music, no one else in the whole wide world
Just you, girl
Hold me, please hold me, don't ever let me go
And as we dance together in the dark
There's so much love in this heart of mine
She whispers to me and I hold her tight
You're the one I thought I'd never find
Slow dancing, swaying to the music, slow dancing, just me and my girl
Slow dancing, swaying to the music, no one else in the whole wide world
Just you, girl

(There's A Little Lane Without A Turning) On The Way To Home Sweet Home
(There's A Little Lane Without A Turning) On The Way To Home Sweet Home
Composer(s): Sam M. Lewis; George W. Meyer
I wonder if they miss me nowadays
I wonder if they would forgive my ways
I'd love to kiss somebody I adore
I'd give a lot to see them all once more
I haven't treated them just as I should
I'd go home tomorrow if I could
When every friend you've had has turned you down
When every smile has turned into a frown
When every finger points at you in shame
Somebody home says you are not to blame
I sometimes hear somebody teaching me
My first lesson in geography
There's a little lane without a turning
On the way to home sweet home
There's a little mother always yearning
For the ones that long to roam
There's a road that leads to strangers
That's where friendship parts
Another leads to dangers
And it's paved with broken hearts
Take the little lane without a turning
On the way to home sweet home

E Depois Do Adeus
E Depois Do Adeus
Composer(s): José Calvário - José Niza
First performance by: Paulo de Carvalho - 1974
Quis saber quem sou
O que faço aqui
Quem me abandonou
De quem me esqueci
Perguntei por mim
Quis saber de nós
Mas o mar
Não me traz
Tua voz
Em silêncio, amor
Em tristeza e fim
Eu te sinto, em flor
Eu te sofro, em mim
Eu te lembro, assim
Partir é morrer
Como amar
É ganhar
E perder
Tu vieste em flor
Eu te desfolhei
Tu te deste em amor
Eu nada te dei
Em teu corpo, amor
Eu adormeci
Morri nele
E ao morrer
Renasci
E depois do amor
E depois de nós
O dizer adeus
O ficarmos sós
Teu lugar a mais
Tua ausência em mim
Tua paz
Que perdi
Minha dor que aprendi
De novo vieste em flor
Te desfolhei...
E depois do amor
E depois de nós
O adeus
O ficarmos sós

There'll be bluebirds over

The valley will bloom again
And Jimmy will go to sleep
In his own little room again
There'll be bluebirds over
The white cliffs of Dover
Tomorrow, just you wait and see
The shepherd will tend his sheep
The valley will bloom again
And Jimmy will go to sleep
In his own little room again
There'll be bluebirds over
The white cliffs of Dover
Tomorrow, just you wait and see

Slow Dancer
Composer(s): George Daly; Boz Scaggs
Performer(s): Boz Scaggs; Rita Coolidge
I have never loved a lady
Never touched your silken knee
Macon baby, you drove me crazy
You were so easy to me
Lay me down in Georgia pine fields
Whisper to me through the trees
You're the one I always dream of
You're the only one I see
Slow dancer, sweet romancer
Shine your light on me
Slow dancer, holds the answer
Only you can set me free
Never see your face in sunlight
Moonlight sends you straight to me
You never even got my name right
You were so easy to me
Slow dancer, sweet romancer
Shine your light on me
Slow dancer, give me the answer
Only you can set me free

(There Was A) Tall Oak Tree
(There Was A) Tall Oak Tree
Composer(s): Dorsey Burnette
Performer(s): Dorsey Burnette; Gene McDaniels
There was a tall oak tree
That loved a babblin' brook
And the babblin' brook
Loved the mountain high
And the mountain high
Loved the sky above
The Creator looked down
And saw everything was love, love, love
Now, he took a bone
And a piece of mud
He made a man and a woman
To be flesh and blood
And then along came the devil
Up out of the ground
He tempted the woman
And that spread sin all ‘round, all ‘round, all ‘round
Now, if she’d left that apple
On that apple tree
There’d be no tears or sorrow
We’d live eternally
And then along came Man
And chopped the oak tree down
And now the babblin' brook
Is solid ground
And now the mountain high
Don’t stand so high
And there’s a cloud of smoke
That covers up the clear blue sky
There was a tall oak tree
There was a tall oak tree
There was a tall oak tree

Mein Ruf Nach Dir
Mein Ruf Nach Dir
First performance by: Piera Martell - 1974
Sehnsucht nach der Vergangenheit
Und die Erinnerung an unser Glück
Treiben ein wildes Spiel mit mir
Und jeden Augenblick der Zeit
Ich hole ihn aus der Vergessenheit zurück
Mein Ruf nach Dir
Das wird ein Schrei der Liebe sein
Das Lied der Sehnsucht
Singt dazu der Wind
Mein Ruf nach Dir
Soll wie ein Strahl der Sonne sein
Der unsre Liebe
Neu zum Blühen bringt
Fragen, ob sich mein Leben lohnt
Wenn es so weiter geht, ganz ohne dich
Tage, die nichts als Träume sind
Mein Leben ist ein leerer Raum
Die Wirklichkeit ist nur ein Schattenbild für mich
Mein Ruf nach Dir
Das wird ein Schrei der Liebe sein
Das Lied der Sehnsucht
Singt dazu der Wind
Mein Ruf nach Dir
Soll wie ein Strahl der Sonne sein
Der unsre Liebe
Neu zum Blühen bringt
Mein Ruf nach Dir
Das wird ein Schrei der Liebe sein
Das Lied der Sehnsucht
Singt dazu der Wind
Mein Ruf nach Dir
Soll wie ein Strahl der Sonne sein
Der unsre Liebe
Neu zum Blühen bringt
Der unsre Liebe
Neu zum Blühen bringt

(There Ought To Be A) Moonlight Saving Time
(There Ought To Be A) Moonlight Saving Time
Composer(s): Irving Kahal; Harry Richman
Performer(s): Guy Lombardo & His Royal Canadians;
and various other artists
Birdies fly with new ambition
Spring is in their song
Soon you'll find yourself a-wishin'
Days were not so long
If my thought is not defined
Listen while I speak my mind
There ought to be a moonlight saving time
So I could love that boy of mine
Until the birdies wake and chime
Good morning!
There ought to be a law in clover time
To keep that moon on overtime
To keep each lover's lane in rhyme, till dawning
You'd better hurry up, hurry up
Hurry up, get busy today
You'd better croon a tune, croon a tune
To the man up in the moon
And here is what I say
There ought to be a moonlight saving time
So I could love that boy of mine
Until the birdies wake and chime
Good morning!
In January the nights are very long
But that's all right
In happy June, comes the honeymoon time
Days are longer than the night
In love time's season, the moon's the reason
For every cuddle and kiss
When the days are longer, the nights are shorter
Something should be done about this
There ought to be a moonlight saving time
To make the morning glories climb
An hour later on the vine
Each morning!
You sort of need a moon to bill and coo
An old back porch, a birch canoe
A parlor lamp in June won't do
I'm warning, I've heard the farmer say
I'll make hay while the sun is shining above
But when the day is done, night begun
You can ask the farmer's son
It's time to make love
There ought to be a moonlight saving time
So I could love that boy of mine
Until the birdies wake and chime
Good morning!
That's all!

Slow And Easy
Slow And Easy
Composer(s): Harry Williams; Norman Spencer
Oh! honey dear my honey dear, I hear those doggone "blues"
and honey dear, Oh! listen here, I feel those doggone shoes
Though they're new and killing me too, hear that "blue" and what can you do?
Oh! boy, Oh! joy; let's toddle it through: but take it
Oh! honey dear, my honey dear, I fear I'll have to stop
and honey dear, Oh! listen here, I feel my feet will "pop"
When they choose to put on the blues, two new shoes mean terrible news
Oh! boy, no joy; I've got to refuse: so walk it
Slow and easy, if you want to get along with me
I said slow and easy, be easy as a man can be
I'm a lady, pure and sweet, but "shimmee" up a little while I rest my feet
Go slow and easy, if you want to get along with me
Just take it
Slow and easy, if you want to get along with me
I said slow and easy, be easy as a man can be
Sit me down here in the shade, I'd like a little beer (I mean a lemonade)
Go slow and easy, if you want to get along with me
So walk it

That's what you get for lovin' me
That's what you get for lovin' me
Everything we had is gone, you can see
That's what you get for lovin' me
Now don't you shed a tear for me
I ain't the love you thought I'd be
I've had a hundred just like you
But don't be blue, I'll have a thousand before I'm through
That's what you get for lovin' me
That's what you get for lovin' me
Everything we had is gone, you can see
That's what you get for lovin' me
Now there you go, you're cryin' again
You should have known how things would end
But then some day when your poor heart is on the mend
I just might pass this way again
That's what you get for lovin' me
That's what you get for lovin' me
Everything we had is gone, you can see
That's what you get for lovin' me
That's what you get for lovin' me
That's what you get for lovin' me
Everything we had is gone, you can see
That's what you get for lovin' me
That's what you get for lovin' me
That's what you get ...... Fade

Die Sommermelodie
Die Sommermelodie
First performance by: Cindy & Bert - 1974
Ich hab' dir heut' geschrieben, es ist vorbei
Doch du bist da, und das find' ich schön
Ich soll dich nicht mehr lieben
Du bist nicht frei und ich muß geh'n, ich muß geh'n
Ich hab' dir angesehen, was du verschweigst
Denn auch dein Herz, das hat sich verirrt
Und keiner weiß, was nun wird
Die Sommermelodie, die ist nur Träumerei
Wir beide sind verliebt
Und das darf doch nicht sein für uns zwei
Die Sommermelodie, die sagt du bist nicht frei
Und diese Zeit der Rosen geht einmal vorbei
Wir sehen oft uns wieder, und unser Traum
Der ist so schön, doch leider nicht wahr
Und dieses Lied der Liebe
Klingt durch den Raum, wir sind ein Paar, mmm...
Die Sommermelodie, die ist nur Träumerei
Wir beide sind verliebt
Und das darf doch nicht sein für uns zwei
Die Sommermelodie, die sagt du bist nicht frei
Und diese Zeit der Rosen geht einmal vorbei
(Die Sommermelodie) Die Sommermelodie
(Die ist nur Träumerei) Die ist nur Träumerei
Und diese Zeit der Rosen geht einmal vorbei
