A House Of Hopes And Dreams
A House Of Hopes And Dreams
Composer(s): Peter Sinfield
Performer(s): Peter Sinfield
Across the floor lie broken bowls of pride
Unlatch the door and scratch holes in the night
She'll be there someday, tides turn, winds change
You know, Oh you know
A house of hopes and dreams I built one too
Drunk on gypsy violins like you
Ran naked through the flames and burnt like you
Unbuttoned times when two laid down as one
Eyes on eyes where catherine wheels spun
Now every stale day is a haywire highway
Alone, so alone
A house of hopes and dreams I built one too
Danced upon the tables just like you
Swam the sea of dreams and drowned like you
The cave of tears you choked and almost cried
Emotions horse's roped and staked inside
Never could show her but somehow hoped to know her
Again, again, again to build
A house of hopes and dreams upon
a pack of painted cards
To build a house of hopes and dreams
with bricks of loaded dice
To build a house of hopes and dreams
with roulette wheels for stairs
To build a house of hopes and dreams
Secured and bound with love
With love, with love, with love, with love
Build strong and sure with love ...

You're The One (The Vogues)
You're The One
Composer(s): Petula Clark; Tony Hatch
Performer(s): The Vogues
Every time we meet
Everything is sweet
Ooh, you're so tender
I must surrender
My love is your love
Now and forever
You're the one that I long to kiss
Baby, you're the one that I really miss
You're the one that I'm dreaming of
Baby, you're the one that I love
Keep me in your heart
Never let us part
Ooh, never leave me
Please don't deceive me
I want you only
You must believe me
You're the one that I long to kiss
Baby, you're the one that I really miss
You're the one that I'm dreaming of
Baby, you're the one that I love
I adore you
And no one before you
Could make me feel this way
Since I met you
I just can't forget you
I love you more each day
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
There may be some tears
Through the coming years
Ooh, all the while
I know you'll be smilin'
You love will guide me
Though every mile 'cause
You're the one that I long to kiss
Baby, you're the one that I really miss
You're the one that I'm dreaming of
Baby, you're the one that I love

A House Needs A Roof
A House Needs A Roof
Composer(s): Tony Banks
Performer(s): Tony Banks
Wandering in a daze
Through a cold mechanical maze
I am lost and confused
I am always the loser
You tell me there’s a place
Where I can be alive
Is it near is it far is it somewhere between
This land you say exists that I’ve never seen
Call me please talk to me tell me the truth
I need to believe like a house needs a roof
Is it strange is it wonderful I need to know
Do you have a picture that you can show
The minute to capture the moment has come
The minute to capture the moment has come
It’s easy to believe
But less easy to imagine
I’ve grown so used to not coping
Waiting eternally hoping
Wishes come and go
But this one will stay I know
Could the time for adventure be
Just around the corner
Is it near is it far is it somewhere between
The land you say exists that I’ve never seen
Call me please talk to me tell me the truth
I need to believe like a house needs a roof
Is it strange is it wonderful I need to know
Do you have a picture that you can show
The minute to capture the moment has come
The minute to capture the moment has come
I wonder if it’s true
Do I put my faith in you
Do I risk one more failure
To add to this tale
Or do I turn my back
And slowly walk away
Please tell me if you know
Is it near is it far is it somewhere between
The land you say exists that I’ve never seen
Call me please talk to me tell me the truth
I need to believe like a house needs a roof
Is it strange is it wonderful I need to know
Do you have a picture that you can show
The minute to capture the moment has come
The minute to capture the moment has come

You're The One (Kathy Kirby)
You're The One
Performer(s): Kathy Kirby
You’re the one that I sigh for
The one that I even lie for
The one that I even die for
You’re the lover that I cry for
Oh my darling hear me sighing
For you left me sad and lonely
Can’t you see, my one and only
Oh, my darling, hear me crying
Can’t you see my heart is dying
Come to me
Oh, I implore you
I love everything about you
My life is nothing without you
Come back, come back, come back to me
Oh, I implore you
I love everything about you
My life is nothing without you
Oh my lover

A House Is Not A Home
A House Is Not A Home
Composer(s): Burt Bacharach - Hal David
First release by: Brook Benton - 1964
Covered by multiple other artists
Titles In Other Languages:
1964 - Un Toit Ne Suffit Pas (by Les Surfs)
1972 - Et Hus Er Ik' Et Hjem (by Ulla Neumann)
A chair is still a chair
Even when there's no one sitting there
But a chair is not a house
And a house is not a home
When there's no one there to hold you tight
And no one there you can kiss good night
A room is still a room
Even when there's nothing there but gloom
But a room is not a house
And a house is not a home
When the two of us are far apart
And one of us has a broken heart
Now and then I call your name
And suddenly your face appears
But it's just a crazy game
When it ends it ends in tears
Darling, have a heart
Don't let one mistake keep us apart
I'm not meant to live alone
Turn this house into a home
When I climb the stair and turn the key
Oh, please be there still in love with me

You're The One (Karen Carpenter)
You're The One
Performer(s): Karen Carpenter
Every night, every day
You're the one I always dream of
Every line of your face
Is sketched so plain inside my heart
You've grown so deep inside of me
You're everything I feel and see
And You're the One
You're the One I love
All my life, all my love
I can feel when you're beside me
All that's right, all that's wrong
Suddenly becomes so clear
My heart has overtaken me
with feelings you awake in me
And You're the One
You're the One I love
Only you could move me enough
to believe in love one more time
All I need to know for tomorrow
is that you're mine, mine for a lifetime
If our friends all around
find it hard to understand us
You and I, understand
the other one so very well
And that's what I've been looking for
so I keep coming back for more
'cos You're the One
You're the One I love
You're the One
You're the One I Love

A Horse With No Name
A Horse With No Name
((German Version: Ein Mensch Ohne Namen (P. Bernd))
Composer(s): Dewey Bunnell
First release by: America - 1971
Covered by multiple other artists
On the first part of the journey
I was looking at all the life
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There was sand and hills and rings
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
And the sky with no clouds
The heat was hot and the ground was dry
But the air was full of sound
I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...
After two days in the desert sun
My skin began to turn red
After three days in the desert fun
I was looking at a river bed
And the story it told of a river that flowed
Made me sad to think it was dead
You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...
After nine days I let the horse run free
'Cause the desert had turned to sea
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
there was sand and hills and rings
The ocean is a desert with it's life underground
And a perfect disguise above
Under the cities lies a heart made of ground
But the humans will give no love
You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...

A Hole To Hide In
A Hole To Hide In
Composer(s): Roger Earl - Lonesome Dave Peverett - Rod Price
Performer(s): Foghat
Woke up this mornin' and I crawled out of bed
I made a cup of coffee just to clear my head
I felt all right 'til I looked on the floor
There was a pile of bills stacked against the door
I went in the kitchen and drank another cup
I sat down at the table and added it up
When I discovered how much I owe
I said, ooh, ooh, it's time to go
Mailman stay away from my door
Got too many bills I don't need no more
I don't know what I'm gonna do, but while I'm deciding
To save my soul, I'm going to find me a hole to hide in
Everyday it's the same old thing
I know in advance what the man's gonna bring
Registered letters from all over town
Those final reminders are gettin' me down
I once had money, but it's all been spent
And now the landlord said he needs the rent
Telephone company cuttin' off my phone
Why don't they all just leave me alone?
Mailman keep away from my door
Got too many bills I don't need no more
I don't know what I'm gonna do, but while I'm deciding
To save my soul, I'm going to find me a hole to hide in
Mailman, stay away from my door
Mailman stay away from my door
Mailman stay away from my door
Mailman yea, stay away from my door, whoo

I know there's only, only one like you
There's no way they could have made two
You're, you're all I'm living for
Your love I'll keep for evermore
You're the first, my last, my everything
In you I've found so many things
A love so new, only you could bring
Can't you see if you
You'll make me feel this way
You're like a first morning dew on a brand new day
I see so many ways that I can love you
'Till the day I die....
You're my reality, yet I'm lost in a dream
You're my first, my last, my everything
{instrumental}

A Hole To Fill
A Hole To Fill
Composer(s): Bob Geldof
Performer(s): Bob Geldof
Everybody's got a hole to fill
It doesn't matter if your name is Jack or Jill
Everybody's got a hole that they need filled
She wakes up
Still looking lost
And says what's the point of this
And I say not a lot
Still she gets up
And through her weary smile
She tries to find the strength
To carry on a while
Two days ago
She wrote away
To a mail order guru
Her postal sage
Who promised answers
By return of mail
Explaining why
Sometimes it seems
The world has failed
He wrote back
I left the pub last night
And I was just in time
To see them break my windows
And slash my tyres
I'm a liberal I thought
As I felt my anger rise
I was desperately searching
For my feminine side
But my feminine side
Was on her morning coffee break
I beat the shit out of one
And boy, I felt great
Hey Bob, he said don't get annoyed
We all find different ways
To fill up the void
And I said yeah

You look like an angel
Walk like an angel

Heaven knows how you lied to me
You're not the way you seemed
You look like an angel
Walk like an angel
Talk like an angel
But I got wise
You're the devil in disguise
Oh yes you are
The devil in disguise
I thought that I was in heaven
But I was sure surprised
Heaven help me, I didn't see
The devil in your eyes
You look like an angel
Walk like an angel
Talk like an angel
But I got wise
You're the devil in disguise
Oh yes you are
The devil in disguise
You're the devil in disguise
Oh yes you are
The devil in disguise

A História de Lily Braun
A História de Lily Braun
Composer(s): Chico Buarque, Edú Lobo
Performer(s): Edú Lobo; Gal Costa; Leila Pinheiro
Como num romance
O homem de meus sonhos
Me apareceu no dancing
Era mais um
Só que num relance
Os seus olhos me chuparam
Feito um zoom
Ele me comia
Com aqueles olhos
De comer fotografia
Eu disse cheese
E de close em close
Fui perdendo a pose
E até sorri, feliz
Como no cinema
Me mandava às vezes
Uma rosa e um poema
Foco de luz
Eu, feito uma gema
Me desmilinguando toda
Ao som do blues
Abusou do scotch
Disse que meu corpo
Era só dele aquela noite
Eu disse please
Xale no decote
Disparei com as faces
Rubras e febris
E voltou
No derradeiro show
Com dez poemas e um buquê
Eu disse adeus
Já vou com os meus
Numa turnê
Como amar esposa
Disse ele que agora
Só me amava como esposa
Não como star
Me amassou as rosas
Me queimou as fotos
Me beijou no altar
Nunca mais romance
Nunca mais cinema
Nunca mais drinque no dancing
Nunca mais cheese
Nunca uma espelunca
Uma rosa nunca
Nunca mais feliz

Performer(s): Ruth Etting;
and various other artists
You’re the cream in my coffee
You’re the salt in my stew
You will always be my necessity
I’d be lost without you
You’re the starch in my collar
You’re the lace in my shoe
You will always be my necessity
I’d be lost without you
Most men tell love tails
And each phrase dovetails
You’ve heard each known way
This way is my own way
You’re the sail of my love boat
You’re the captain and crew
You will always be my necessity
I’d be lost without you
You give life savor
Bring out its flavor
So this is clear, dear
You’re my worcestershire, dear
You’re the sail of my love boat
You’re the captain and crew
You will always be my necessity
I’d be lost without you

A Higher Place
A Higher Place
Composer(s): Tom Petty
Performer(s): Tom Petty
We gotta get to a higher place
And we gotta leave by night
Before that river takes us down
We gotta find somewhe re that's dry
We gotta run like we never run
Or we're gonna lose the light
If we don't get to a higher place and
Find somebody, can help somebody
Might be nobody no more
We gotta get to a higher place
And I hope we all arrive together
We gotta get to a higher place
If we wanna survive the weather
Well, I fool myself and I don't know why
I thought we could ride this out
I was up all night making up my mind
But now I got my doubts
I got my eye on the waterline
Trying to keep my sense of humor
But if we don't get to a higher place and
Find somebody, can help somebody
Might be nobody no more
We gotta get to a higher place
And I hope we all arrive together
We gotta get to a higher place
If we wanna survive the weather
I remember walking with her in town
Her hair was in the wind
I gave her my best kiss
She gave it back again
When I add up what I've left behind
I don 't want to lose no more
But if we don't get to a higher place and
Find somebody, can help somebody
Might be nobody no more

A Heartsick Soldier On Heartbreak Ridge
A Heartsick Soldier On Heartbreak Ridge
Composer(s): Ernest Tubb - Max Fidler - Nelie Kane
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb
I’m tired and weary, forgotten and blue
With only one question in mind
How long, ‘O how long, till I’m back home again
With the Sweetheart I left behind
I’m A Heartsick Soldier On Heartbreak Ridge
Across from the River of Si
Where the shells burst around me
And cover the sound of a poor lonely heart when it cries
Does the girl I love know I miss her tonight
And how often I mention her name
Does she know how I long for the sound of her voice
And the love letters that never came
I’m A Heartsick Soldier On Heartbreak Ridge
Across from the River of Si
Where the shells burst around me
And cover the sound of a poor lonely heart when it cries
Will my prayers be answered on Heartbreak Ridge
Will the one that I love still be true
Does she count the hours until I return
My poor heart could rest if I knew
I’m A Heartsick Soldier On Heartbreak Ridge
Across from the River of Si
Where the shells burst around me
And cover the sound of a poor lonely heart when it cries
