You Know What I Mean (Phil Collins)
You Know What I Mean
Composer(s): Phil Collins; Mark Mancina
Performer(s): Phil Collins; Frida
Just as I thought I'd make it
You walk back into my life
Just like you never left
Just as I'd learned to be lonely
You call up to tell me
You're not sure if you're ready
But ready or not, you'll take what you've got and leave
Leave me alone with my heart
I'm putting the pieces back together again
Just leave, leave me alone with my dreams
I can do without you, know what I mean...
I wish I could write a love song
To show you the way I feel
Seems you don't like to listen
Oh but like it or not, take what you've got and leave
Leave me alone with my heart
It's broken in two and I'm not thinking too straight
Just leave, leave me alone with my dreams
You've taken everything else, you know what I mean

What A Life! (Trying To Live Without You)
What A Life! (Trying To Live Without You)
Composer(s): Louis Alter - Charlotte Kent
What a life, to live alone
What is left when love has flown
What a life, trying to live without you
All the love that used to be
Sings a minor melody
What a life, trying to live without you
All the funny little things
We used to say and do
They weren't meant for one
They were meant for two
Just the same, the world goes on
I must live and know you're gone
What a life, trying to live without you
All the funny little things
We used to say and do
They weren't meant for one
They were meant for two
Just the same, the world goes on
I must live and know you're gone
What a life, trying to live without you
Without you, without you
I can't live without you

You Know What I Like
You Know What I Like
Composer(s): Billy Squier
Performer(s): Billy Squier
Somewhere in the distance---somewhere down the line
A trace of an illusion is etched upon my mind
A fool's infatuation poundin' in my brain
I fell into your face before I ever knew your name
You're no stranger--you know what I like...
You got me in a cross fire, drivin' in my car
You come on like a daydream, you move just like a star
Your lips are my persuasion, your love will be my cure
The path of least resistance is all I can endure
You're no stranger--you know what I like...
Miles of conversation...it's all between the lines
You're in the "A" rotation, you're with me all the time
Our love will go the distance--however near and far
In all of my confusion, I know just who you are
You're no stranger--you know what I like...

Call Me Claus
Call Me Claus
Composer(s): Garth Brooks - Lisa Sanderson - Jenny Yates
Performer(s): Garth Brooks
May not know by lookin' at me
Who you're looking at exactly
Wonder who could that be in your stockin'
Suit of red and cheeks of cherry
Lookin' extraordinary
Spare me 'cause
You scare with your gawkin'
Hold your applause
Pick up your jaws
Call me Claus, hoah
I got the spirit of the season in me
Spreadin' joy and toys a'plenty
Nimbly down your chimney I'll be bumpin'
Give me room 'cause I'm a packin'
Only time for toys and snackin'
Love to stay here yackin'
But I'm humpin'
I got a cause
No time to pause
They call me Claus
Hoah, call me Santa
Call me Kringle
Call me Old Saint Nick
All those have a beautiful ring
Pleasin' is the reason
And the season's a kick
When your Santa
Baby, you gotta swing
Swing, I dare ya, yeah
Hey, call me Santa
Call me Kringle
Call me Old Saint Nick
All those have a beautiful ring
Pleasin' is the reason
And the season's a kick
When you Santa
Baby, you gotta swing
So while in your jammies sleepin'
Roof to roof I'll be a leapin'
Quickly if your creepin' for a peepin'
The oohs and aahs
Are all because
They call me Claus
Hold your applause
Hey, watch the paws
They call me Claus

You Know Me
You Know Me
Composer(s): Jackie DeShannon
Performer(s): Jackie DeShannon
I'll go where the feeling takes me
Although it could surely break me
So long, so long without an ending
To learn there's no pretending
Chorus:
You know me
Following a shooting star
You know me
Someone with a restless heart
You know me
Wanting to be where you are
Endlessly
You know me
These day behind the sun's illusion
In games where some things must be proven
It's time, it's time to trust the reason
And say you're still believing
(Chorus)
Trade winds
Somewhere from another distant place
Fallen
Promises that had to fade away
(Chorus)

Summerday Sands
Summerday Sands
Composer(s): Ian Anderson
Performer(s): Jethro Tull
I once met a girl with the life in her hands
and we lay together on the summerday sands
I gave her my raincoat and told her, "Lady, be good!"
And we made truth together, where no one else would
I smiled through her fingers and ran the dust through her hands
the hour-glass of reason on the summerday sands
We sat as the sea caught fire
Waited as the flames grew higher in her eyes, in her eyes
We watched the eagle born
wings clipped, tail feathers shorn, but we saw him rise
we saw him rise over summerday sands
Came the ten o'clock curfew
She said, "I must start my car
I'm staying with someone I met last night in a bar"
I called from my wave top:"At least tell me your name!"
She smiled from her wheelspin and said, "It's all the same"
I thought for a minute, jumped back on dry land
left one set of footprints on the summerday sands
I once met a girl with the life in her hands
and we lied together on the summerday sands

Summer, Highland Falls
Summer, Highland Falls
Composer(s): Billy Joel
Performer(s): Billy Joel
and multiple other artists
They say that these are not the best of times
But they're the only times I've ever known
And I believe there is a time for meditation in cathedrals of our own
Now I have seen that sad surrender in my lover's eyes
And I can only stand apart and sympathize
For we are always what our situations hand us
It's either sadness or euphoria
And so we argue and we compromise
And realize that nothing's ever changed
For all our mutual experience, our separate conclusions are the same
Now we are forced to recognize our inhumanity
Our reason co-exists with our insanity
And though we choose between reality and madness
It's either sadness or euphoria
How thoughtlessly we dissipate our energies
Perhaps we don't fulfill each other's fantasies
And so we'll stand upon the ledges of our lives
With our respective similarities
It's either sadness or euphoria

You Keep Running Away
You Keep Running Away
Composer(s): Lamont Dozier;
Brian Holland; Eddie Holland
Performer(s): The Four Tops; Chuck Jackson
You're here today and gone tomorrow
Leave this heart of mine in sorrow
Then you come around every now and then
Long enough to hurt me then you're gone again
Darlin you keep running away
Well I begged you not to leave but you never stay
Now you, you keep running away
Leavin me here to face another lonely day
To you all of this is just a game
Well each time you leave I feel the pain
But I've got so much love for you
I keep wanting you no matter what you do
All I want to do is take care of you
Everything I have in my life
I will share with you
This soul of mine has been processed by you
Darling my heart has been obsessed with you
Just look at me, I'm not the man I used to be
I used to be proud, I used to be strong
But all of that's changed girl since you come along
Your lovin sweetness is my weakness
Boy I need you, dear
I just can't keep you near
Each time you go the hurt comes callin'
My days become nights, darlin
My nights become so much longer
You're in my life, you're in my heart
But I can't get you
Get you into my arms
Darlin, you keep runnin away ......

Cabin In The Valley
Cabin In The Valley
Composer(s): Kix Brooks - Kenny "Boudro" Gray
Performer(s): Brooks & Dunn
Today I climbed the hillside with the snowcapped evergreens
Stared down in the valley at a Christmas memory
Saw a young boy in a cabin hang a stockin' on a peg
Peace on Earth was ours down in the valley
Christmas dinner's cookin', the turkey's golden brown
There's a big old fire ablazin', all the family's gathered 'round
There was nothin' quite as pretty in the cities or the towns
As my cabin in the valley when the snow is on the ground
Mama still still plays carols on those worn out ivory keys
And Papa's hooked his old team up to fetch the Christmas tree
I watch my boy climb on a limb, shakin' loose the mistletoe
Just the way I did not so long ago
Christmas dinner's cookin', the turkey's golden brown
There's a big old fire ablazin', all the family's gathered 'round
Well, there's nothin' quite as pretty in the cities or the towns
As my cabin in the valley when the snow is on the ground
Christmas dinner's cookin', the turkey's golden brown
There's a big old fire ablazin', all the family's gathered 'round
Well, There's nothin' quite as pretty in the cities or the towns
As my cabin in the valley when the snow is on the ground

You Keep Me Hangin' On
Composer(s): Lamont Dozier;
Eddie Holland; Brian Holland
Performer(s): Diana Ross & The Supremes;
and various other artists
Set me free, why don't you babe
Get out of my life, why don't you babe
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hanging' on
You don't really need me
But you keep me hanging' on
Why do you keep a coming around
Playing with my heart?
Why don't you get out of my life
And let me make a new start?
Let me get over you
The way you've gotten over me
Set me free, why don't you babe
Let me be, why don't you babe
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hanging' on
Now you don't really want me
You just keep me hanging' on
You say although we broke up
You still want to be just friends
But how can we still be friends
When seeing you only breaks my heart again
And there ain't nothing I can do about it
Woo, set me free, why don't you babe
Woo, get out my life, why don't you babe
Set me free, why don't you babe
Get out my life, why don't you babe
You claim you still care for me
But your heart and soul needs to be free
Now that you've got your freedom
You want to still hold on to me
You don't want me for yourself
So let me find somebody else
Hey!
Why don't you be a man about it
And set me free
Now you don't care a thing about me
You're just using me
Go on, get out, get out of my life
And let me sleep at night
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hanging' on...

(Nancy):
Strawberries cherries and an angel's kiss in spring
My summer wine is really made from all these things
(Lee):
I walked in town on silver spurs that jingled to
A song that I had only sang to just a few
She saw my silver spurs and said lets pass some time
And I will give to you summer wine
Ohh-oh-oh summer wine
(Nancy):
Strawberries cherries and an angel's kiss in spring
My summer wine is really made from all these things
Take off your silver spurs and help me pass the time
And I will give to you summer wine
Ohhh-oh summer wine
(Lee):
My eyes grew heavy and my lips they could not speak
I tried to get up but I couldn't find my feet
She reassured me with an unfamiliar line
And then she gave to me more summer wine
Ohh-oh-oh summer wine
(Nancy):
Strawberries cherries and an angel's kiss in spring
My summer wine is really made from all these things
Take off your silver spurs and help me pass the time
And I will give to you summer wine
Mmm-mm summer wine
(Lee):
When I woke up the sun was shining in my eyes
My silver spurs were gone my head felt twice its size
She took my silver spurs a dollar and a dime
And left me cravin' for more summer wine
Ohh-oh-oh summer wine
(Nancy):
Strawberries cherries and an angel's kiss in spring
My summer wine is really made from all these things
Take off your silver spurs and help me pass the time
And I will give to you summer wine
Mmm-mm summer wine

You Keep Coming Back Like A Song
You Keep Coming Back Like A Song
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
Performer(s): Bing Crosby;
and various other artists
Can't run away from you, dear
I've tried so hard but I fear
You'll always follow me near and far
Just when I think that I'm set
Just when I've learned to forget
I close my eyes, dear, and there you are
You keep coming back like a song
A song that keeps saying, remember
The sweet used-to-be
That was once you and me
Keeps coming back like an old melody
The perfume of roses in May
Returns to my room in December
From out of the past where forgotten things belong
You keep coming back like a song

((Italian Version: Ci Sono Fiori (Dalida) - 1969))
Composer(s): Lee Hazlewood - Eddy Marnay
Performer(s): Marie Laforêt & Gérard Klein - 1969
(Elle:)
Le miel de l'amour qu'on boit jusqu'à se griser
C'est cela que l'on nomme le vin de l'été
(Lui:)
Je suis venu d'une autre ville, en étranger
Portant une bourse d'argent à mon gilet
(Elle:)
Le bel étranger sur ta route, moi je vais
Te faire goûter le vin de l'été
Oh oh de l'été
Le miel de l'amour qu'on boit jusqu'à se griser
C'est cela que l'on nomme le vin de l'été
Enlève ton gilet et ta bourse dorée
Et viens goûter le vin de l'été
Oh oh de l'été
(Lui:)
Mais le lendemain quand j'ai voulu me lever
Le sol roulait comme un bateau dessous mes pieds
(Elle:)
Tu as trop bu ou pas assez, reviens, je vais
Te redonner le vin de l'été
Oh oh de l'été
(Lui:)
Le miel de l'amour qu'on boit jusqu'à se griser
C'est cela que l'on nomme le vin de l'été
(Elle:)
Enlève ton gilet et ta bourse dorée
Et viens goûter le vin de l'été
Oh oh de l'été
(Lui:)
A mon réveil le soleil me brûlait les yeux
Le vin cognait comme un fou dans ma tête en feu
(Elle:)
Et moi j'étais partie et sa bourse dorée
Évanouie dans le vin de l'été
Oh oh de l'été
(Ensemble:)
Le miel de l'amour qu'on boit jusqu'à se griser
C'est cela que l'on nomme le vin de l'été
(Elle:)
Enlève ton gilet et ta bourse dorée...

You Just Can't Play A Sad Song On A Banjo
You Just Can't Play A Sad Song On A Banjo
Composer(s): Paul Buskirk; Russell Jackson
Performer(s): Willie Nelson
Now we all know the violin plays sweetly
And the steel guitar thrills all the world completely
But for all around good fun there's really only one
And it's round and firm and fully packed and puts the blues on the run
And you just can't play a sad song on the banjo
A banjo tune will have to make you smile
And when you're feeling low and melancholy just pick up the ol' banjo by golly
'Cause you just can't play a sad song on the banjo
(guitar)
Now bad news just won't hang around the banjo
Old dismal gloom will have to disappear
A sad song can't be played so please don't be afraid
'Cause you just can't play a sad song on the banjo

((Dutch Version: Die Zomernacht (by Will Tura) - 2009))
Composer(s): Heinz Meier - Hans Bradtke - Johnny Mercer
Performer(s): Wayne Newton - 1965
and multiple other artists
The summer wind came blowin' in
From across the sea
It lingered there so warm and fair
All summer long
we sang a song
And then we strolled on golden sand
Two friends
and the summer wind
Like painted skies, those days and nights
They went flying by
The world was new
Beneath the bright blue
Umbrella sky
Then softer than
That piper man
One day, it called to you
And I lost you
I lost you to
The summer wind
The autumn wind
And the winter winds
They have come and they have gone
And still those days
Those lonely days
They go on and on
And guess who sighs his lullabies
To all the nights that never end?
My fickle friend
The summer wind

You Hurt Me
You Hurt Me
Performer(s): Little Willie John
Last night you told me
That we were through
And all the time, I thought
That your love was true
You-ooo hurt me, you hurt me so
You know you hurt me
When you let me go
You always told me
We'd never, ever part
But now you turn around
And break my loving heart
You hurt me, you hurt me so
You know you hurt me
When you let me go
I'm beggin', please come back to me!
A life is now at stake
An' if you don't soon return
You're gonna drive me to my grave
You hurt me, you hurt me so
You know you hurt me
When you let me go
Umm
(Instrumental & guitar)
I'm beggin', please come back to me!
A life is now at stake
If you don't soon return
You're gonna drive me to my grave
You hurt me, you hurt me so
You know you hurt me
When you let me go
Ooh, you hurt me
You hurt me
You hurt me so
You know you hurt me
When you let me go
