Deep In A Dream
Deep In A Dream
Composer(s): Eddie De Lange - James Van Heusen
Performer(s): Artie Shaw
I dim all the lights and I sink in my chair
The smoke from my cigarette fans through the air
The walls of my room fade away in the blue
And I’m deep in a dream of you
The smoke makes the stairway for you to descend
You come to my arms, may this bliss never end
For we’ll love anew just as we used to do
When I’m deep in a dream of you
Then from the ceiling, sweet music comes stealing
We glide to a lovers refrain
You’re so appealing, that I’m soon revealing
My love for you over again
My cigarette burns me, I wake with a start
My hand doesn’t hurt
But there’s a pain in my heart
Awake or asleep, every memory I’ll keep
Deep in a dream of you
Then from the ceiling, sweet music comes stealing
We glide to a lovers refrain
You’re so appealing, that I’m soon revealing
My love for you over again
My cigarette burns me, I wake with a start
My hand doesn’t hurt
But there’s a pain in my heart
Awake or asleep, every memory I’ll keep
Deep in a dream of you

Answer The Phone
Answer The Phone
Composer(s): Cindy Walker
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb
and multiple other artists
I’ve called you and I’ve called you but each time I phone
They always tell me that you’re not at home
I’ve written you letters and knocked at your door
But don’t worry darlin’ I won’t bother you no more
So Answer The Phone when it rings, darlin’
And if somebody knocks let them in
You don’t have to be afraid that it’s me
‘Cause I’ll never bother you again
I’m writing this letter to tell you goodbye
Somebody told me how you sit and cry
‘Cause you’ve found a new love since I have been gone
and wish I’d forget you and that I’d leave you alone
So Answer The Phone when it rings, darlin’
And if somebody knocks let them in
You don’t have to be afraid that it’s me
‘Cause I’ll never bother you again

Deep Blue
Deep Blue
Composer(s): George Harrison
Performer(s): George Harrison
When sunshine is not enough
To make me feel bright
It's got me suffering in the darkness
That's so easy come by on the road-side
Of one loong life-time
It's got me deep blue
You know I'm deep blue
When you stand there, watch tired bodies
Full of sickness and pain
To show you just how helpless you really are
When you get down to the truth
It hurts me
It's got me deep blue
You know I'm deep blue
When I think of the life I'm living
Pray God help me; give me your light
So I can love you and understand
This repetition that keeps me here
Feeling deep blue
It's got me deep blue
You know I'm deep blue

Who Was That Lady?
Who Was That Lady?
Composer(s): Sammy Cahn - James Van Heusen
First recording/First release by: Dean Martin - 1959
You're looking at a loser
A man who's loved and lost
A man whose most romantic bridges now have all been crossed
And still that face appears, wherever I go
I'm sure you're bored to tears
But I must know
Who was that lady?
That fabulous lady?
That lady I saw you with last night?
Tell me, was she an angel?
If she was an angel
She sure kept her wings out of sight!
Pardon my asking, but was she thrilling
And was she willing to kiss the evening away?
Say who was that lady?
I knew such a lady
And foolishly let her out of my life
So if she's the one
Please spare me the pun
I'd sure miss the fun in
"That was no lady, that was my wife"
Who was that lady?
I knew such a lady
And foolishly let her out of my life
So if she's the one
Please spare me the pun
I'd sure miss the fun in
That old crawler no joke is duller
Than that was no lady
That was my wife

Answer me Lord above
Just what sin have I been guilty of
Tell me how I came to lose my love
Please answer me, oh Lord
She was mine yesterday
I believed that love was here to stay
Won't you tell me where I've gone astray
Please answer me, oh Lord
If she's happier without me
Don't tell her I care
But if she still thinks about me
Please let her hear my prayer
Let her know I've been true
Send her back so we can start anew
In my sorrow may I turn to you
Please answer me, oh Lord
If she's happier without me
Don't tell her I care
But if she still thinks about me
Please let her hear my prayer
Let her know I've been true
Send her back so we can start anew
In my sorrow may I turn to you
Please answer me, oh Lord
Please answer me, oh Lord

Dédié À Toi
Dédié À Toi
Composer(s): Ivano Fossati
Performer(s): Dalida
À tous les ringards de la terre et aux paumés comme moi
Celui à qui je voudrais plaire
À ceux qui ne m'aiment pas je dédie ceci
Aux plays boys finis
À Rosa, Rosine et à moi aussi
À qui se voit dans une glace et finalement ne se voit plus
À qui n'a pas de glace et cela revient au même
Ne se voit plus non plus
À tous les solitaires
À tous les ramasses misére et à l'amour perdu
À ceux qui ont cherché la manière et qui ne l'on pas trouvé
À la gueule que j'avais hier
Dédié à ceux qui ont souffert et n'ont pas crié
À tous les prisonniers
À ceux qui ont retrouvé la liberté
À celui qui a voulu mes levres et qui n'en a plus voulu
Dédié à ceux qui comprennent
Qu'il faut quitter la scène quand on a perdu
À l'Italie, à la nostalgie et à moi aussi
Mais cette chanson sans importance ne pourrait pas finir ainsi
Comme un petit air de danse, une simple romance sans que je la dédie
Aux amours morts que l'oubli emporte et à mol aussi
Aux amours morts que l'oubli emporte et à mol aussi

Dedication
Dedication
Composer(s): Guy Fletcher - Doug Flett
Performer(s): Bay City Rollers
I phoned the local station
I kinda like the things they're playing
So I settled down to listen nice and easy
The DJ plays our kind of music
He's asked us folk to choose it
But it all adds up to another
night without you
Now and then he takes a phone-in
And anyone who's feeling lonely
Can call him up
And make a little conversation
And in the night there's music playing
Soft behind the words he's saying
Would I like to make a dedication
This song I wanna dedicate to you
And to everyone who feels the way we do
As long as you're a part of me
The song will play on endlessly
I hope my dedication's getting through
I'm standing in this lonely city
There's not enough to keep me busy
And we can't meet til I can take
a short vacation
You'll never know how much I love you
Lying here thinking of you
And all I got is a late night music station
This song I wanna dedicate to you
And to everyone who feels the way we do
As long as you're a part of me
The song will play on endlessly
I hope my dedication's getting thru
Dedication playing just for you
This song I wanna dedicate to you
And to everyone who feels the way we do
As long as you're a part of me
the song will play on endlessly
I hope my dedication's gettin' thru
Dedication's playing just for you

Ansiedad
Ansiedad
Composer(s): J.E. Sarabia Rodríguez
Performer(s): Raphael
Ansiedad de tenerte en mis brazos
musitando palabras de amor
Ansiedad de tener tus encantos
y en la boca volverte a besar
Tal vez estén llorando mis pensamientos
mis lágrimas son perlas que caen al mar
y el eco adormecido de este lamento
hace que esté presente en mi soñar
Quizás esté llorando al recordarte
estreche mi retrato con frenesí
y hasta tu oido llegue la melodía salvaje
y el eco de la pena de estar sin tí
Ansiedad de tenerte en mis brazos
musitando palabras de amor
Ansiedad de tener tus encantos
y en la boca volverte a besar

Dedicated To You But You Weren't Listening
Dedicated To You But You Weren't Listening
Composer(s): Hugh Hopper
Performer(s): Soft Machine; Caveman Hughscore; Caveman Shoestore
Famous parabolic versions
Songs that promise
Beauty, sleep, love, sadness
Do I dream that something's missing?
Hungry, thirsty, open off-peak mind
Give me the truth, give me the truth
give me the truth, tell me...
Songs and verses
Handy captions
Photographs of
Real-life action, horror, madness
Can it be that something's happening?
Wash me, paint me, but please don't t'aint me
Give me a chance, give me chance
give me a chance...
When I was young, the sky was blue
And everyone knew what to do
But now it's gone, the telly's here
Mass media, the sewer too
Universal maximillion
Eight rare cases
Chickenpox and crawling gladness
Seemingly it's nothing happening
Cure my doctor
don't swallow him down
Give me the cure, give me the cure
give me the cure...
The night was cool, the moon was bright
The air was clear with oxygen
The stars were there, and in my eyes
Were thousands of chrysanthemums
Don't use magnets
Geophysics carry you back
Wholesome, healthfood, homepride
Satisfied
Something outside gives out hunger
Face my mirror
Electricity...

My Russian Lady
Performer(s): The Classics
(Ride, ride, ride, Russian lady
Ride, ride, ride, let it ride)
Come back to me (Come back), my Russian lady
Don't wait too long, leave the cold behind
Come back to me (Come back), my Russian lady
'Cause in my arms is all the warmth you can find
Come back to me (Come back), my Russian lady
And warm your jelly heart on the fire of my love
Step in your sleigh, then ride, ride, ride
Yell at the dogs and glide, glide, glide
Over the snowflakes, fly to my side
Over the frozen lakes, ride, lady, ride
(Ride, ride, ride, Russian lady
Ride, ride, ride, let it ride)
Come back to me (Come back), my Russian lady
Don't wait too long, leave the cold behind
Come back to me (Come back), my Russian lady
'Cause in my arms is all the warmth you can find
Come back to me (Come back), my Russian lady
And warm your jelly heart on the fire of my love
Come back to me (Come back), my Russian lady
And warm your jelly heart on the fire of my love
(Ride, lady, ride, lady
Ride, ride, ride)

Dedicated To You
Composer(s): Sammy Cahn - Saul Chaplin - Hy Zaret
First recording/First release by: Andy Kirk and His Clouds of Joy - 1936/1937
Covered by multiple other artists
If I should write a book for you
That brought me fame and fortune too
That book would be like my heart and me
Dedicated to you.
And, if I should paint a picture too
That showed the loveliness of you
My art would be, like my heart and me
Dedicated to you
To you, because your love is the beacon that lights up my way
To you because with you I know one lifetime could be just one heavenly place
If I should find a twinkling star
One half so wonderous as you are
That star would be, like my heart and me
Dedicated to you
To you, because your love is a beacon that lights up my way
To you because with you I know one lifetime could be just one heavenly place
If I should find a twinkling star
One half so wonderous as you are
That star would be like my heart and me
Dedicated to you

Another's Lifetime
Another's Lifetime
Composer(s): Wayne Berry
Performer(s): Steppenwolf; Ted Neeley
What's the name of your latest companion?
Do I know him, have you told him what you told me?
What's the course of your latest adventure?
Does he track you, will he back you, can he keep you free?
There is more to life than dreaming
There is more to love than makin' it
There is more to you than meets the eye
What's the state of your new situation?
Is he giving, is he willing to let you be?
What's the chance for your new true confession?
Does he make it, will he fake it, can he really see?
There is more to life than dreaming
There is more to love than makin' it
There is more to you than meets the eye
One way or another, we all lose a lover
Some live, some die, some never learn to try
One love for another's lifetime
What's the price of your passing confusion?
Have you sold out, can I hold out, can I live that long?
What's the dream in the back of you memory?
Can you say it, do you pray, has your memory gone?
There is more to life than dreaming
There is more to love than makin' it
There is more to you than meets the eye
One way or another, we all lose a lover
Some die, some live, some never learn to give
One love for another's lifetime

Dedicated To The One I Love
Composer(s): Ralph Bass - Lowman Pauling
First release by: The "5" Royales - 1957
Covered by multiple other artists
While I’m far away from you my baby
I know it’s hard for you my baby
Because it’s hard for me my baby
And the darkest hour is just before dawn
Each night before you go to bed my baby
Whisper a little prayer for me my baby
And tell all the stars above
This is dedicated to the one I love
(love can never be exactly like we want it to be)
I could be satisfied knowing you love me
(and there’s one thing I want you to do
especially for me)
And it’s something that everybody needs
While I’m far away from you my baby
Whisper a little prayer for me my baby
Because it’s hard for me my baby
And the darkest hour is just before dawn
If there’s one thing I want you to do especially for me
Then it’s something that everybody needs

Another You
Another You
Composer(s): Jimmy Peppers
Performer(s): Faron Young; Loretta Lynn
Her eyes may be a deeper blue
But they remind me so much of you
She may even wear her hair
A little shorter
And when she walks into the room
I smell the fragrance of your perfume
Yes, it just might be
I found me another you
I never wanted it this way
But there's one thing I can say
She is givin' all the love
I wanted you to
When we're alone each night in bed
She speaks the same words you once said
Oh, can it really be
I found me another you
She looks like you, she walks like you
And when she whispers my name
It sounds so much like you talkin'
I feel you in my arms again
There's a feelin' I found with her
That keeps you in my mind so clear
Yes, it just might be
I found me another you
Oh, it just might be
I found me another you

Dedicated Follower Of Fashion
Dedicated Follower Of Fashion
Composer(s): Ray Davies
First release by: The Kinks - 1966
Covered by multiple other artists
They seek him here, they seek him there
His clothes are loud, but never square
It will make or break him so he's got to buy the best
'Cause he's a dedicated follower of fashion
And when he does his little rounds
'Round the boutiques of London Town
Eagerly pursuing all the latest fads and trends
'Cause he's a dedicated follower of fashion
Oh yes he is (oh yes he is), oh yes he is (oh yes he is)
He thinks he is a flower to be looked at
And when he pulls his frilly nylon panties right up tight
He feels a dedicated follower of fashion
Oh yes he is (oh yes he is), oh yes he is (oh yes he is)
There's one thing that he loves and that is flattery
One week he's in polka-dots, the next week he is in stripes
'Cause he's a dedicated follower of fashion
They seek him here, they seek him there
In Regent Street and Leicester Square
Everywhere the Carnabetian army marches on
Each one an dedicated follower of fashion
Oh yes he is (oh yes he is), oh yes he is (oh yes he is)
His world is built 'round discoteques and parties
This pleasure-seeking individual always looks his best
'Cause he's a dedicated follower of fashion
Oh yes he is (oh yes he is), oh yes he is (oh yes he is)
He flits from shop to shop just like a butterfly
In matters of the cloth he is as fickle as can be
'Cause he's a dedicated follower of fashion
He's a dedicated follower of fashion
He's a dedicated follower of fashion

Don't Break This Heart
Don't Break This Heart
Performer(s): Jack Jersey
Don't break this heart
Don't tell me it's over
Don't tear me back
Your place, I hate to go
Don't let me hide
Just like I did before I met you
Don't let me down
Don't break this heart in two
For I want you, I need you, I really, really love you
Baby, can't you see that I do?
Or could there be somebody else
Waiting for you?
Won't you tell me how to love you, how to need you
Could you teach me how to forget
Don't, don't let me down
Don't break this heart in two
Don't let me hide
Just like I did before I met you
Don't let me down
Don't break this heart in two
For I want you, I need you, I really, really love you
Baby, can't you see that I do?
Or could there be somebody else
Waiting for you?
Won't you tell me how to love you, how to need you
Could you teach me how to forget
Don't, don't let me down
Don't break this heart in two
For I want you, I need you, I really, really love you
Baby, can't you see that I do?
Or could there be somebody else
Waiting for you?
