You Made Me Believe In Magic
You Made Me Believe In Magic
Composer(s): Len Boone
Performer(s): The Bay City Rollers; Menage
I believe that love has gone
I've no strength to carry on
Thought my world was upside down
Then you walked on into my life
I went to work to set things right
What's the secret that, that you used
You made me believe in magic
You know that I can be true to your love
You made me believe in magic
Your love's put a magic into my life
Now I'm filled with a new sense to be
You gave my life harmony
Loving you is all I, all I need
You made me believe in magic
You know that I can be true to your love
You made me believe in magic
Your love's put a magic into my life
Oh, you made me believe in magic
You know that I can be true to your love
You made me believe in magic
Your love's put a magic into my life
You made me believe in magic
You know that I can be true to your love
You made me believe in magic
Your love's put a magic into my life
You made me believe in magic
You know that I can be true to your love
You made me believe in magic
Your love's put a magic into my life

I'm a-gonna raise a fuss, I'm a-gonna raise a holler
About a-workin' all summer just to try to earn a dollar
Every time I call my baby, try to get a date
My boss says, "No dice son, you gotta work late"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a gonna do
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
Well my mom and poppa told me, "Son you gotta make some money,
If you want to use the car to go ridin' next Sunday"
Well I didn't go to work, told the boss I was sick
"Now you can't use the car 'cause you didn't work a lick"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a gonna do
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
I'm gonna take two weeks, gonna have a fine vacation
I'm gonna take my problem to the United Nations
Well I called my congressman and he said "Whoa!...
I'd like to help you son but you're too young to vote"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a gonna do
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues

You Made A Fool Of Me
You Made A Fool Of Me
Performer(s): The New Inspiration
I found a love
A sweet sweet love
She made a fool of me
I looked with eyes who didn't see
What she was doing,
Didn't see what she was doing, at all
Not at all
Oh why did you make a fool of me?
Oh why did you make a fool of me?
The dream is over
Over and over
There won't be no more singing
I only will be thinking of you
Who made me happy
Sometimes you made me happy
But now, no more now
Oh why did you make a fool of me?
Oh why did you make a fool of me?
I found a love
A sweet sweet love
The sweet, sweetest love
But she made a fool of me
Oh why did you make a fool of me?
Oh why, why, why did you?
Make a fool …………

Je ne veux pas perdre de temps
Il y a autre chose sur terre
Que travailler pendant l'été
Pour gagner une misère
Ouais au téléphone quand j'appelle
La fille que je préfère
Mon patron me dit
T'as du travail à faire
Parfois je me demande
Qui veut m'empêcher
De rencontrer la fille de l'été dernier
Elle m'a donné rendez-vous
Et j'ai soigné ma coiffure
Mais mon père et ma mère
M'ont retiré leur voiture
Ouais je n'ai pas travaillé
J'ai dit que j'étais malade
T'as du travail à faire, fils
Pas de balade
Parfois je me demande
Ce que je peux faire
Pour retrouver
La fille de l'été dernier
Je prendrai le premier train
Je n'attendrai pas l'été
Et j'enverrai tous mes problèmes
Au bureau de l'Elysée
Ouais j'ai vu le président
Il avait l'air étonné
J'aimerais t'aider
Mais tu es trop jeune pour voter
Parfois je me demande
Ce qu'il y a de pire que de vouloir aimer
Une fille en été

You Lost The Sweetest Boy
You Lost The Sweetest Boy
Composer(s): Lamont Dozier;
Brian Holland; Eddie Holland
Performer(s): Mary Wells; Dusty Springfield
(Oh yeah)
(Oh yeah)
(Oh yeah)
(Oh yeah)
You had the sweetest boy in the world
Without a doubt you were the envy of every girl
You're the kind that's never satisfied
You want every boy to pass you by
But the tables turned (the tables turned)
'Cause his words tell you're done
Now the hurt's on you
Your little scheme backfired, it's true
You thought it was fun to make the boys run
Chorus:
You lost the sweetest boy that you had that time
The sweetest boy that you had
'Cause now he's hangin' around my door
More happier than before
Now you're in misery 'cause you lost him to me
Now the hurt's on you, now the hurt's on you
Your little scheme backfired, it's true
You made bets, any boy you could get
(chorus)
(instrumental)
(Oh yeah)
(Oh yeah)
(Oh yeah)
(Oh yeah)
Yes, your loss is my gain
'Cause straight into my arms he came
You want every boy to pass you by
Now the hurt's on you, now the hurt's on you
Your little scheme backfired, it's true
Now tears of regret just covered your face
(repeat chorus and fade)

You Light Up My Life
You Light Up My Life
Composer(s): Joe Brooks
Performer(s): Debby Boone;
and various other artists
So many nights I sit by my window
Waiting for someone to sing me his song
So many dreams I kept deep inside me
Alone in the dark but now
You've come along
You light up my life
You give me hope
To carry on
You light up my days
and fill my nights with song
Rollin' at sea, adrift on the water
Could it be finally I'm turning for home?
Finally, a chance to say hey,
I love You
Never again to be all alone
You light up my life
You give me hope
To carry on
You light up my days
and fill my nights with song
You light up my life
You give me hope
To carry on
You light up my days
and fill my nights with song
It can't be wrong
When it feels so right
'Cause You
You light up my life

Summer's Gone
Summer's Gone
Composer(s): Paul Anka
Performer(s): Paul Anka
Summer's gone and no songbirds are singing
Because you're gone, gone from my arms
Gone from my lips but you're still in my heart
What to do? Oh, I'm left here just crying
Over you, oh, I'm so blue
What can I do now that you're gone?
The days, they prolong now that you're gone
My nights, they leave me blue (you're so blue)
I don't know why there are tears in my eyes
Can it be that I'm still in love with you?
Summer's gone and no songbirds are singing
Because you're gone, gone from my arms (from my arms)
Gone from my lips (from my lips) but still in my heart
(Still in my heart, still in my heart)
Summer's gone and no songbirds are singing
Because you're gone, gone from my arms
Gone from my lips but still in my heart
(Summer's gone but you're still in my heart)

When I see you I just don't know what to say
I'd like to be with you every hour of the day
So if want me just like I need you

Morning found us calmly unaware
Noon burn gold into our hair
At night, we swim the laughin' sea
When summer's gone
Where will we be
Summer's almost gone
Summer's almost gone
We had some good times
But they're gone
The winter's comin' on
Summer's almost gone

You Know What I Mean (Corinne Griffith & Robert Fraser)
You Know What I Mean
Composer(s): Alfred Dubin; Fred Rath
Performer(s): Corinne Griffith & Robert Fraser
I've been dreaming, I've been dreaming
I've been scheming too
I hope my dreams come true
It all depends on you
I'm suspecting, I'm suspecting
That your eyes have seen
There's something wrong with me
And you know what I mean!
When we're married, when we're married
We'll go down to Cook's
Look through their tourist books
And pick some shady nooks
Then we'll visit those exquisite, Tropic Island scenes
The kind you read about
In all the magazines!
Oh I'm just crazy 'bout your kisses, honey
You know what I mean
For when your lips meet mine
I feel so funny
You know what I mean
You're just a dream of lovliness
You surely know just how to dress
You play and sing, and everything
So different from the rest
I'd like to hear the preacher say that we are
You know what I mean
And in a year or so we both may have a little
Ford machine
We'll find a little cottage where the roses bloom
With a parlor and a kitchen and a dining room
And a room upstairs
Where we'll say our pray'rs,
Oh, you know what I mean
I've been dreaming, I've been dreaming
I've been scheming too
I hope my dreams come true
It all depends on you
I'm suspecting, I'm suspecting
That your eyes have seen
There's something wrong with me
And you know what I mean!
When we're married, when we're married
We'll go down to Cook's
Look through their tourist books
And pick some shady nooks
Then we'll visit those exquisite, Tropic Island scenes
The kind you read about
In all the magazines!
Oh I'm just crazy 'bout your kisses, honey
You know what I mean
For when your lips meet mine
I feel so funny
You know what I mean
You're just a dream of lovliness
You surely know just how to dress
You play and sing, and everything
So different from the rest

You know what I mean
And in a year or so we both may have a little Ford machine
We'll find a little cottage where the roses bloom
With a parlor and a kitchen and a dining room
And a room upstairs
Where we'll say our pray'rs

Summerlove Sensation
Summerlove Sensation
((French Version: Petit Rainbow (by Sylvie Vartan) - 1977))
Composer(s): William Wylie MacPherson Martin - Phil Coulter
First release by: Bay City Rollers - 1974
The summer sun sitting high in the sky
And love that's in everyone's eye
Now the waitin' the anticipating' is over
Over, over
You feel loose and get out in the sun
Summer's here and we're gonna have fun
Two weeks are past and at last
We can really feel free
And you can run in the sun
Having' fun with the one that you really love
Walk in the sand hand in hand
With the boy that you met on vacation
And on a warm summer night it's all right
When he says, baby I love you
Then boy oh boy you're enjoying'
That summerlove sensation
And you're right on the down of the sea
On the beach where the gang's gonna be
We can stay there all day
Until the fall is over over over
In the evening he's waiting for you
And you go to the beach barbecue
And you'll all have a ball till dawn

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
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
