The Summer Knows

The Summer Knows (aka Theme From 'Summer of 42' - 1972)
Composer(s): Marilyn Bergman - Alan Bergman - Michel Legrand
First release by: Michel Legrand - 1971
Covered by multiple other artists

The summer smiles, the summer knows
And unashamed, she sheds her clothes
The summer smoothes the restless sky
And lovingly she warms the sand on which you lie
The summer knows, the summer's wise
She sees the doubts within your eyes
And so she takes her summer time
Tells the moon to wait and the sun to linger
Twists the world 'round her summer finger
Lets you see the wonder of her arms
And if you've learned your lessons well
There's little more for her to tell
One last caress, it's time to dress for fall

You Got To Lose

You Got To Lose
Composer(s): Earl Hooker
Performer(s): Earl Hooker; George Thorogood

You got to lose
You can't win all the time
You got to lose
You can't win all the time
Well I know pretty baby
I see trouble comin' down the line
Well I was out on the streets baby
I did not have no money
Don't you worry pretty baby
I'll be back on my feet soon honey
You got to lose
You can't win all the time
Well I know pretty baby
I see trouble comin' down the line
You got to lose
You can't win all the time
You got to lose
You can't win all the time
Yes I know pretty baby
I see trouble comin' down the line
Yeah I was out on the streets
I did not have no friends
I didn't have no money
And nothing I could spend
You got to lose
You can't win all the time
Well I know pretty baby
I see trouble comin' down the line

Summer Kisses, Winter Tears

Summer Kisses, Winter Tears
Composer(s): Fred Wise - Ben Weisman - Jack Lloyd
First recording/First release by: Elvis Presley & The Jordanaires - 1960/1961
Covered by: Julee Cruise - 1991

Summer kisses, Winter tears
That was what she gave to me
Never thought that I'd travel all alone
The trail of memories

Happy hours, lonely years
But I guess I can't complain
For I still recall the Summer sun
Through all the Winter rain

The fire of love, the fire of love
Can burn from afar
And nothing can light the dark of the night
Like a falling star
Summer kisses, Winter tears
Like the stars they fade away
Leaving me to spend my lonely nights
With dreams of yesterday

The fire of love, the fire of love
Can burn from afar
And nothing can light the dark of the night
Like a falling star
Summer kisses, Winter tears
Like the stars they fade away
Leaving me to spend my lonely nights
With dreams of yesterday

Leaving me to spend my lonely nights
With dreams of yesterday
Summer kisses, Winter tears

You Got The Wrong Man

You Got The Wrong Man
Composer(s): Joe Barnhill; Wayne Perry
Performer(s): Tim McGraw

Your eyes say that you've been hurt before
And you can't take the heartache anymore
You think I'll do what he's done to you
Break your trust and be untrue
But baby this is me you're talkin' to

You got the wrong man, it's not me
A case of mistaken identity
I didn't break your heart you see
What can I do to make you understand
You got the wrong man

I know you think that love will never last
And you see your future like the past
You don't want to make the same mistake
You think that I'm one more to make
But baby, I'm not him for goodness sake

You got the wrong man, it's not me
A case of mistaken identity
I didn't break your heart you see
What can I do to make you understand
You got the wrong man

You think I'll do what he's done to you
Break your trust and be untrue
But baby this is me you're talkin' to

You got the wrong man, it's not me
A case of mistaken identity
I didn't break your heart you see
What can I do to make you understand
You got the wrong man

Summer Is Over

Summer Is Over
(French Version: L'été Est Fini - 1964)
Composer(s): Clive Westlake - Tom Springfield
Performer(s): Dusty Springfield - 1964

The evening is gently falling
The flowers are slowly fading
The boats are all moored to shore
Everything tells me that summer is over

The sky is suddenly turning grey
Above, the clouds and the rain
The leaves are falling
And are carried away by the wind
Everything tells me that the summer is over

Oh, another star twinkles from afar
The moon is weak and pale
There is hope no more
There's no one there
And then it's already autumn

Above, the birds have flown away
The love that I had has gone
With tears in my eyes
I said goodbye to him
That's how summer ended

Oh, another star twinkles from afar
The moon is weak and pale
There is hope no more
There's no one there
And then it's already autumn

Above, the birds have flown away
The love that I had has gone
With tears in my eyes
I said goodbye to him
That's how summer ended
That's how summer ended

That's how summer ended

You Got The Silver

You Got The Silver
Composer(s): Mick Jagger; Keith Richards
Performer(s): The Rolling Stones;
Anne Haigis; Love Olzon; Susan Tedeschi

Hey babe, what's in your eyes?
I saw them flashing like airplane lights
You fill my cup, babe, that's for sure
I must come back for a little more

You got my heart you got my soul
You got the silver you got the gold
You got the diamonds from the mine
Well that's all right, it'll buy some time

Tell me, honey, what will I do
When I'm hungry and thirsty too
Feeling fooling (and that's for sure)
Just waiting here at your kitchen door?

Hey baby, what's in your eyes?
Is that the diamonds from the mine?
What's that laughing in your smile?
I don't care, no, I don't care

Oh babe, you got my soul
You got the silver you got the gold
If that's your love, just leave me blind
I don't care, no, that's no big surprise

L'été Est Fini

L'été Est Fini
(English Version: Summer Is Over - 1964)
Composer(s): Clive Westlake - Tom Springfield - A. Salvet
Performer(s): Dusty Springfield - 1964

Le soir qui descend doucement
Les fleurs qui se fanent lentement
Et tous ces bateaux
Qui ne vont plus sur l'eau
Tout me dit que l'été est fini

Le ciel qui soudain devient gris
Là bas, les nuages et la pluie
Les feuilles qui sont mortes
Et que le vent emporte
Tout me dit que l'été est fini

Oh, plus une étoile au loin me scintille
La lune inutile et pâle
L'espoir m'abandonne
Il n'y a plus personne
Puis, déjà c'est l'automne

Là bas, les oiseaux sont partis
L'amour que j'avais s'est enfuit
Les larmes dans les yeux
Je lui ai dit adieu
C'est ainsi que l'été a fini

Oh, plus une étoile au loin me scintille
La lune inutile et pâle
L'espoir m'abandonne
Il n'y a plus personne
Puis, déjà c'est l'automne

Là bas, les oiseaux sont partis
L'amour que j'avais s'est enfuit
Les larmes dans les yeux
Je lui ai dit adieu
C'est ainsi que l'été a fini
C'est ainsi que l'été a fini

C'est ainsi que l'été a fini

Summer In The City

Summer In The City
Composer(s): John Sebastian - Mark Sebastian - Steve Boone
First release by: The Lovin' Spoonful - 1966
Covered by multiple other artists

Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
Been down
Isn't it a pity
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
All around, people looking half dead
Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head

But at night it's a different world
Go out and find a girl
Come-on come-on and dance all night
Despite the heat it'll be alright
And babe, don't you know it's a pity
That the days can't be like the nights
In the summer, In the city, In the summer
In the city

Cool town, evening in the city
Dressing so sharp and looking so pretty
Cool cat, looking for a kitty
Gonna look in every corner of the city
Till I'm wheezing at a bus stop
Running up the stairs, gonna meet you at the rooftop
But at night it's a different world
Go out and find a girl
Come-on come-on and dance all night
Despite the heat it'll be alright
And Babe, don't you know it's a pity
That the days can't be like the nights
In the summer, In the city, In the summer
In the city

Tired of talking, I try to sleep now

When I try I sleep walk
That's when my feet, they start a runnin'

Blue Snowflakes

Blue Snowflakes
Composer(s): Billy Hayes
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb

Blue Snowflakes cover the ground
When a blue lover has no sweetheart around
And those Blue Snowflakes fall from the skies
Like the blue, blue teardrops from my eyes

Sweethearts shopping everywhere, dashing through the snow
The gifts all wrapped in bright red ribbons everywhere I go
Decorating trees of green for the ones they love
But for me I only see Blue Snowflakes from above

Blue Snowflakes cover the ground
When a blue lover has no sweetheart around
And those Blue Snowflakes falls from the skies
Like the blue, blue teardrops from his eyes

I remember her first kiss on an old sleigh ride
The white snowflakes looked just like stardust with her by my side
It was then she promised me someday we would wed
Now those wedding bells will ring for some else instead

Blue Snowflakes follow me round
Only blue memories in my heart can be found
And those Blue Snowflakes fall from the skies
Like the blue, blue teardrops from my eyes
Like the blue, blue teardrops from my eyes

You Got Me
Composer(s): Booker T. Jones
Performer(s): Levon Helm

You got me spinning
You got me spinning like a spinning top
You got me hoping
Hoping this love will never stop

(Refrain)
You gave your love to me, and all my dreams
Your love is making me believe in me

You got me burning
You got me burning like a pile of steam
You got me ruuning
Got me running like a pile of steam

(Refrain)

You got me knowing
Knowing that you in my life I'd spend
You got me rolling
Rolling like a river around the bend
You got me turning
Turning around like a spinning top
You know you got me knowing
Knowing our love would never stop

Doing things they always wanted to
So we're going on a summer holiday
To make our dreams come true
For me and you

(French Version: Quand Revient L'été - 1963)
Composer(s): Bruce Welch - Brian Bennett - Johnny Hoes - Paul Severs
Performer(s): Paul Severs - 1995

Eindelijk is het nu weer zomer holiday
Niet meer werken voor een week of twee
Enkel dromen van een zomer holiday
‘ k Wil d'r uit en ik ga naar de zee
En ik neem jou mee
We gaan naar waar de zon zal schijnen
En naar een zee zo hemelsblauw
Daar gaan onze zorgen verdwijnen
En ik, ik hou van jou
Met z’n tweetjes op een zomer holiday
Is het mooiste wat er kan bestaan
Fijn genieten op een zomer holiday
En trek je nergens meer iets van aan
Laat de boel maar gaan

We leven enkel voor de liefde
We leven enkel voor elkaar
We lachen, we dansen, we zingen
Twee weken van een jaar
Eindelijk is het nu weer zomer holiday
Niet meer werken voor een week of twee
Enkel dromen van een zomer holiday
‘k Wil der uit en ik ga naar de zee
en ik neem jou mee
Mmm mmm
Mmm mmm
Mmm mmm

You Go To My Head

You Go To My Head
Composer(s): Haven Gillespie; J. Fred Coots
Performer(s): Teddy Wilson;
and various other artists

You go to my head and you linger like a haunting refrain
And I find you spinning 'round in my brain
Like the bubbles in a glass of champagne
You go to my head like a sip of sparkling Burgundy brew
And I find the very mention of you
Like the kicker in a julep or two

The thrill of the thought that you might give a thought to my plea
Cast a spell over me
Still I say to myself get a hold of yourself
Can't you see that it never can be

You go to my head with a smile that makes my temperature rise
Like a summer with a thousand Julys
You intoxicate my soul with your eyes
Though I'm certain that this heart of mine
Hasn't a ghost of a chance in this crazy romance
You go to my head
You go to my head

Summer Has Gone

Summer Has Gone
Composer(s): Bill Comstock - William Collins - Gene Dinovi
Performer(s): Doris Day; The Four Freshmen

Seagull cries on rain-swept beaches
Tear-washed eyes and pain love teaches
Remind me, Summer has gone

Empty lovers lanes are lonely
Bitter sweet refrains will only
Remind me, Summer has gone

Summer's a dance and sing time
To lovely songs of Springtime
But Autumn comes to steal all the joys away

Crocus buds are closed with frost now
Summer time has loved and lost now
The sweet dreams, faded and grey

Though Autumn's flaming colours may blind you
Tears will fill your eyes to remind you
Love has flown and Summer has gone away

Summer has gone
Summer has gone

You Go Back To Your World (And I'll Go Back To Mine)

You Go Back To Your World (And I'll Go Back To Mine)
Composer(s): Johnny Mosby
Performer(s): Johnny & Jonie Mosby

I know we can't be satisfied with love we had to steal
For a little while our passion made us blind
Now if the shoe was on the other foot, I know just how we'd feel
So you go back to your world and I'll go back to mine

You go back to your world and I'll go back to mine
We'll both leave the darkness where unfaithfulness must hide
They love us so and we both know we're not the cheating kind
So you go back to your world and I'll go back to mine

(Instrumental Break)

The taste of tears on your cheek tell me this is goodbye
To seek of love would be a waste of time
Now you don't wanna hurt the one who patiently stands by
So you go back to your world and I'll go back to mine

You go back to your world and I'll go back to mine
We'll both leave the darkness where unfaithfulness must hide
They love us so and we both know we're not the cheating kind
So you go back to your world and I'll go back to mine
