Archangel


Archangel
Composer(s): Rick Springfield
Performer(s): Rick Springfield



Angel, just tell me that you'll never leave, understand
Though I know it can't always be the way we planned
I don't think about tomorrow, I just thank God you're my angel
Angel, you saved my life and I was suddenly free, I don't know
How you came like an archangel, but now it's just you and me
I was running scared for much too long till you put me back on straight
Archangel, God knows what I'd do without you my angel
Never leave me, always love me like an angel, archangel
Tears drop like diamonds from your golden eyes
Weep for me archangel and wash away the lies
I've run with demons much too long, now take me to your breast, angel
I've been without you much too long, now I thank God you're mine
Archangel, God knows what I'd do without you my angel
Never leave me, always love me like an angel, archangel
Archangel, archangel, archangel

Die Ene Kleine Traan


Die Ene Kleine Traan
((Adapted from: A Little Bitty Tear (Burl Ives) - 1961))
Composer(s): Hank Cochran - Bobbejaan Schoepen
Performer(s): Bobbejaan Schoepen - 1961

Versions In Other Languages:

Toen je zei ''k heb genoeg van die ruzies'
Ik ga weg, je ziet me niet terug
Riep ik 'maak je geen illusies'
Ik heb genoeg van je, ga dus maar vlug

Door die ene kleine traan ging het fout
Ik zei wel 'och, 't laat me koud'
Het doet me niks, als jij dat maar onthoud
Door die ene kleine traan ging het fout

Ja, ik riep 'het zal een opluchting wezen'
'k Zal weer vrij kunnen doen naar m'n zin
'k Hoef maar in m'n klapboek te lezen
Daar staan voor jou honderd anderen in

Door die ene kleine traan ging het fout
Ik zei wel 'och, 't laat me koud'
Het doet me niks, als jij dat maar onthoud
Door die ene kleine traan ging het fout

Je ging en ik hield me prachtig
Want ik gaf je heel koeltjes een hand
Maar opeens werd het mij te machtig
Toen die traan viel, viel ik door de mand

Door die ene kleine traan ging het fout
Ik zei wel 'och, 't laat me koud'
Het doet me niks, als jij dat maar onthoud
Door die ene kleine traan ging het fout
Door die ene kleine traan ging het fout
Door die ene kleine traan ging het fout
Door die ene kleine traan ging het fout
Door die ene kleine traan ging het fout

Als rondom mij de wereld instort
En ik in de regen tranen zie
Opent zich plots een wonderlaan

Waar elke wolk smelt in ‘t gouden zonlicht
Is een land vol kleuren en fantasie
Waar ik dolgraag heen zou gaan
Naar het land voorbij de zon
Waar geen zorgen meer bestaan

Ver weg boven de wolken
Hemelhoog, ligt het land van mijn dromen
Achter de regenboog
Ver weg boven de wolken, geen gevaar
Ja, de droom die ik dromen wil
Wordt er even waar

Soms doe ik vlug een sterrrenwens
Dan reis ik snel voorbij de grens van tranen
Problemen smelten voor de zon
Terwijl ik zweef in mijn ballon vol droomverhalen

Ver weg boven de wolken, toverij
Meeuwen kunnen er komen
Wat is er mis met mij

Een land waar mensen vogels zijn
Die vliegen, zingen
Kon ik daar maar zijn

Die Ballade Von Der Sexuellen Hörigkeit


Die Ballade Von Der Sexuellen Hörigkeit Composer(s): Bertolt Brecht - Kurt Weill Performer(s): Nina Hagen



Da ist nun einer schon der Satan selber
Der Metzger: er! und alle andern: Kälber!
Der frechste Hund! Der schlimmste Hurentreiber!
Wer kocht ihn ab, der alle abkocht? Weiber!
Das fragt nicht, ob er will — er ist bereit
Das ist die sexuelle Hörigkeit
Der glaubt nicht an die Bibel, nicht ans BGB
Er meint, er ist der größte Egoist
Weiß, daß wer’n Weib sieht, schon verschoben ist
Und läßt kein Weib in seine Näh
Er soll den Tag nicht vor dem Abend loben
Denn bevor es Nacht wird, liegt er wieder droben

So mancher Mann sah manchen Mann verrecken
Ein großer Geist blieb in ‘ner Hure stecken!
Und die’s mit ansahn, was sie sich auch schwuren
Als sie verreckten, wer brgrub sie? Huren!
Das fragt nicht, ob er will — er ist bereit
Das ist die sexuelle Hörigkeit
Der hält sich an die Bibel! Der ans BGB!
Er ist ein Christ und der ein Anarchist!
Am Mittag zwingt man sich, daß man nicht Sellerie frißt
Nachmittags weiht man sich noch ‘ner Idee
Am Abend sagt man: Mit mir geht’s nach oben
Doch bevor es Nacht wird, liegt man wieder droben

Da steht nun einer fast schon unterm Galgen
Der Kalk ist schon gekauft, ihn einzukalken
Sein Leben hängt an einem brüch’gen Fädchen
Und was hat er im Kopf, der Bursche? Mädchen!
Schon unterm Galgen, ist er noch bereit
Das ist die sexuelle Hörigkeit
Er ist schon sowieso verkauft mit Haut und Haar
Bei ihr hat er den Judaslohn gesehn
Und er beginnt nun zu verstehn
Daß ihm das Weibes Loch das Grabloch war
Und er mag wüten gegen sich und toben
Doch bevor es Nacht wird, liegt er wieder droben

La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la la

L'herbe était verte, le soleil pouvait briller
Ce jour de paix annonçait déjà l'été
Mais un orage terrible est arrivé
L'arc-en-ciel a tout sauvé

L'arc-en-ciel a un trésor caché
L'arc-en-ciel a de l'or à ses pieds
L'arc-en-ciel va me changer la vie
Je cours vers lui
Et mes rêves aussi
Arc-en-ciel, si c'est la vérité
Arc-en-ciel, ma misère est passée
Arc-en-ciel, ton éclat m'éblouit
Je cours vers lui
Mes rêves aussi

Et je n'étais pas le seul à espérer
Une jolie fille m'avait déjà devancé
Le vrai trésor, c'était elle, je l'ai gardé
Arc-en-ciel soit remercié

Arc-en-ciel, ta légende a menti
Arc-en-ciel, ton or n'est pas ici
Arc-en-ciel, ton trésor est ailleurs
Au fond du cœur
Comme un bonheur

La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la la

I’m gonna wake up, yes and no
I’m gonna kiss some part of
I’m gonna keep this secret
I’m gonna close my body

Guess, die another day
Guess, die another day
Guess, die another day
Guess, die another day

I’m break the cycle
I’m gonna shake up the system
I’m gonna destroy my ego
I’m gonna close my body now

I think I’ll find another way
There’s so much more to know
I guess I’ll die another day
It’s not my time to go

For every sin I’ll have to pay
I’ve come to work, I’ve come to play
I think I’ll find another way
It’s not my time to go

I’m gonna avoid the cliché
I’m gonna suspend my senses
I’m gonna delay my pressure
I’m gonna close my body now

I guess I’ll die another day
I guess I’ll just die another day
I guess I’ll die another day
I guess I’ll just die another day

I think I’ll find another way
There’s so much more to know
I guess I’ll die another day
It’s not my time to go

Uh

Arc Of A Diver


Arc Of A Diver
Composer(s): Vivian Stanshall - Steve Winwood
Performer(s): Steve Winwood



She bathes me in sweetness I cannot reveal
For sharing dreams I need my woman
This humble expression meagerly dressed
My eyes so mean it has no meaning

But jealous night and all her secret chords
I must be deaf on the telephone I need my love to translate

I play the piano no more running honey
This time to the sky I'll sing if clouds don't hear me
To the sun I'll cry and even if I'm blinded
I'll try moon gazer because with you I'm stronger
Arc of a diver effortlessly, my mind in sky and when I wake up
Daytime and nighttime I feel you near
Warm water breathing she helps me here

This time to the sky I'll sing if clouds don't hear me
To the sun I'll cry and even if I'm blinded
I'll try moon gazer because with you I'm stronger

Lean streaky music spawned on the streets
I hear it but with you I had to go
'Cause my rock 'n' roll is putting on weight and the beat it goes on
Arc of a diver effortlessly, my mind in sky and when I wake up
Daytime and nighttime I feel you near
Warm water breathing she helps me here

With you my love we're going to raid the future
With you my love we're going to stick up the past
We'll hold today to ransom 'til our quartz clock stop until yesterday

Didn't We?


Didn't We? Composer(s): Jimmy Webb First release by: James Darren - 1967 Covered by multiple other artists



This time we almost made the pieces fit, didn't we?
This time we almost made some sense of it, didn't we?
This time I have the answer right here in my hand
Then I touched it, and it has turned to sand
This time we almost sang the song in tune, didn't we?
This time we almost made it to the moon, didn't we?
This time, we almost made (almost made) a poem rhyme
And this time we almost made that long hard climb
Didn't we almost make it this time... this time

Too Good


Too Good
Composer(s): Doc Pomus - Mort Shuman
Performer(s): Little Tony



Ooby-dooby-doo, ooby-dooby-doo
You are always here each time I need you
Morning, noon, and nighttime too
You know I depend on you
You're too good, but oh so good
Too good, but oh so good for me

Darling, there were times I was untrue
All you did was close your eyes
Now I've come to realize
You're too good, but oh so good
Too good, but oh so good for me

If you ever leave me, if you say goodbye
It will hurt my heart so much
I'll sit right down and cry-y-y
If I ever search the wide world over
I'd never find another one
Who would do the things you've done
You're too good, but oh so good
Too good, but oh so good for me

If you ever leave me, if you say goodbye
It will hurt my heart so much
I'll sit right down and cry-y-y
If I ever search the wide world over
I'd never find another one
Who would do the things you've done
You're too good, but oh so good
Too good, but oh so good for me

Ooby-dooby-doo, ooby-dooby-doo
Ooby-dooby-doo, ooby-dooby-doo
Ooby-dooby-doo, ooby-dooby-doo ...

De Clown


De Clown ((Adapted from: Allez, Viens On Danse (Pascal Danel) - 1968)) Composer(s): Georges Chatelain - Pierre Kartner Performer(s): Ben Cramer - 1989



Hij was maar een clown
In 't wit en in 't rood
Hij was maar een clown
Maar nu is hij dood

Hij lachte en sprong
In 't fel gele licht
Maar onder die lach
Zat een droevig gezicht

De herinnering blijft
Aan die clown met z'n lach
Hij heeft alles gegeven
Tot de laatste dag

Niemand kende de pijn
Van z'n stille verdriet
Want er was op het einde
Niemand die hij verliet

Hij woonde alleen
In een wagen van hout
Hij was maar een clown
En zo werd hij oud

Z'n hoed was te klein
En z'n schoenen te groot
Hij was maar een clown
Maar nu is hij dood

Op een avond, hij viel
Net als elke keer
Het publiek dat lachte luid
Maar voor hem was het uit

Hij was maar een clown
In 't wit en in 't rood
Hij was maar een clown
Maar nu is hij dood

Aber Dich Gibt's Nur Einmal Für Mich


Aber Dich Gibts Nur Einmal Für Mich Performer(s): Roy Black



(Aber dich gibt's nur einmal für mich)
Es gibt Millionen von Sternen
unsere Stadt sie hat tausend Laternen
Gut und Geld gibt es viel auf der Welt
Aber dich gibt's nur einmal für mich

Es gibt tausend Lippen die küssen
und Pärchen die trennen sich müssen
Freud und Leid gibt es zu jeder Zeit
aber dich gibt's nur einmal für mich

Schon der Gedanke, dass ich dich einmal verlieren könnt'
dass dich ein and'rer Mann einmal sein Eigen nennt
der stimmt mich traurig, weil du für mich die Erfüllung bist
was wär' die Welt für mich ohne Dich?

Es blüh'n viele Blumen im Garten
es gibt viele Mädchen die warten
Freud und Leid gibt es zu jeder Zeit
Aber dich gibt's nur einmal für mich

Schon der Gedanke, dass ich dich einmal verlieren könnt'
dass dich ein anderer Mann einmal sein eigen nennt
der stimmt mich traurig, weil du für mich die Erfüllung bist
was wär' die Welt für mich ohne Dich?

Es gibt sieben Wunder der Erde
tausend Schiffe fahren über die Meere
Gut und Geld gibt es viel auf der Welt
aber dich gibt's nur einmal für mich
Aber dich gibt's nur einmal für mich
Aber dich gibt's nur einmal für mich

All my life, all the years
that I have spent with you
Were they a dream made
sweeter by your smile?
All of those days I think of now
Wondering when will I see you again

Now and then I speak out
just as if you were there
And all the music of
your voice that echoes
Through my heart and fills my mind
Somehow makes the
silence earier to bear
But there are times when
I think of what life will be like
When the children have
grown and I'm afraid to be alone

Looking at them I can see
everything I treasured in you
They have your way of
speaking with their eyes
They have your laughter now and then
I look at them and I see you again

Oh my love, how I loved you
you'll just never know
And in my heart I just grow
older every day that were apart
With all the memories of long ago
And all the beautiful
things that I wanted to say
And that stayed in my head
Somehow never got said

So much to learn
there is so much to learn about love
And I'll wait until then
till the day when I see you again
When will I see you again

Didn't We Almost Have It All


Didn't We Almost Have It All Composer(s): Michael Masser - Will Jennings First release by: Whitney Houston - 1987 Covered by multiple other artists



Didn't We Almost Have It All Remember when we held on in the rain The night we almost lost it Once again we can take the night into tomorrow Living on feelings Touching you I feel it all again Didn't we almost have it all When love was all we had worth giving? The ride with you was worth the fall my friend Loving you makes life worth living Didn't we almost have it all The night we held on till the morning You know you'll never love that way again Didn't we almost have it all The way you used to touch me felt so fine We kept our hearts together down the line A moment in the soul can last forever Comfort and keep us Help me bring the feeling back again Didn't we almost have it all When love was all we had worth giving? The ride with you was worth the fall my friend Loving you makes life worth living Didn't we almost have it all The night we held on till the morning You know you'll never love that way again Didn't we almost have it all Didn't we have the beat of times When love was young and new? Couldn't we reach inside and find The world of me and you? We'll never lose it again Cause once you know what love is You never let it end Didn't we almost have it all When love was all we had worth giving? The ride with you was worth the fall my friend Loving you makes life worth living Didn't we almost have it all The night we held on till the morning You know you'll never love that way again Didn't we almost have it all

Follow me to a land across the shining sea
Waiting beyond the world that we have known
Beyond a world we dreamed could be
And the joy we have tasted

Follow me along the road where only love can see
Rising above the fully of the night
Into the light beyond the tears
And all the years we have wasted

Follow me to a distant land as mountain high
Where all the music that we always kept inside will fill the sky
Singing in the silence where the heart's real
While the world goes on turning, turning
Turning, follow me

Follow me to a land across the shining sea
Rising above the fully of the night
Into the light beyond the tears
And all the years we have wasted

Follow me to a distant land as mountain high
Where all the music that we always kept inside will fill the sky
Singing in the silence where the heart's real
While the world goes on turning, turning
Turning, follow me

Take my hand
And we'll find the land
Beyond the shining sea
Follow me

Didn't Want To Have To Do It


Didn't Want To Have To Do It Composer(s): John Sebastian First release by: The Lovin' Spoonful - 1966 Covered by multiple other artists



Didn't wanna have to do it
Didn't wanna have to break your heart
Didn't wanna have to do it
I kept a-hopin' from the very start
But you kept on a-tryin'
And I knew that you'd end up a-cryin'
And I knew I didn't wanna have to do it at all

Didn't wanna have to do it
Didn't wanna have to be the one to say it
Didn't wanna have to do it
I kept a-hopin' there'd be somethin' to delay it again
Yeah, but then
No, I didn't wanna have to be the one to say "The end"

Was a time that I thought our love could fly
and never never fall
Why should I suppose we were never really meant
to be close to each other at all
No, I...

Didn't wanna have to do it
Didn't wanna have to be the one to say it
Didn't wanna have to do it
I kept a-hopin' there'd be somethin' to delay it again
Yeah, but then
No, I didn't wanna have to be the one to say "The end"
No no, not the end, no no no

Yesterday, just a photograph of yesterday
And all it's edges folded and the corners, sepia brown
And yet it's all I have of our past love
A postscript to it's ending

Brighter days, I can see such brighter days
When every song we sang is sung again
And now we know it's for good
This time for good
And we'll love us once again
And you're near me

I can remember the rain in December
The leaves are brown on the ground

In Spain I did love and adore you
The nights filled with joy were our yesterday's
And tomorrow will bring you near me

I can recall my desire, every reverie is on fire
And I got a picture of all my yesterdays
Yesterday, I can say. I got a kick everytime I see
That Spain again.

I can remember the rain in December
The leaves are brown on the ground

Our love was a Spanish fiesta
The bright light and songs were our joy each day
And the nights were the heat of yearning.

I can recall my desire, every reverie is on fire
And I got a picture of all my yesterdays
Yesterday, I can say. I got a kick everytime I see
You gaze at me
I see moments of history
Your eyes meet mine
And they dance to the melody
And we live again, as if dreaming

The sound of our hearts beat like castagnets
And forever we know their meaning

Aranjuez, ein Tag verglüht
Wozu bin ich nun hier
Ein Traum zum Sterben müd'
Sucht noch nach dir
Wo ich auch geh, denk ich an dich
Bei unzähligen Dingen

Aranjuez bei den, von denen
Die noch immer sprüh'n
Bei allen Rosen die verblüh'n
Und wo ich jemals war mit dir
Regt sich unsere Liebe noch in mir
Doch sie spricht nicht
Sie singt dann ein Lied das so klingt
Wie Zigeuner nur singen

Aranjuez, wie schön es war
Stelle ich mir oft vor
Denn wird mir klar was ich an dir verlor
Und das tut weh, immer noch weh
Wie ein Dorn tief im Herzen

Aranjuez, es führt kein Weg
Zu dir zurück, ich weiß
Nur die Gitarren klingen leis
Traurig in uns immer noch fort
Singen lässt sich dazu nur ein Wort
Das Wort vorbei, und wir wissen wir zwei
Es wird lange noch schmerzen

Tag und Nacht hör ich heute noch Gitarren
Irgendwie liegt Magie in dem Klang
Er verfolgt mich mein Leben lang
Aranjuez, Aranjuez

Didn't Start Livin'


Didn't Start Livin' Composer(s): Billy Burnette - Tony Colton First release by: Billy Burnette - 2000



Well I thought I was a bad boy
Chasin' everything in sight
I didn't come alive
'Til the sun went down at night
I thought I'd been everywhere
Done everything that a man could do
But I didn't start livin'
Until I started lovin' you

Well I've been to Rome, Georgia
And Paris, Tennessee
I couldn't be tied down
Nothin' had a hold on me
I was beginning to believe
I was one of the chosen few
But I didn't start livin'
Until I started lovin' you

You gave my life a whole new meaning
More than it ever had before
Since you've been my sweet angel
We're knockin' on Heaven's door

I thought the neon nightlife
Was never gonna let me be
I thought that livin' on the edge
Would always be my destiny
I thought I'd been everywhere
Done everything a man could do
But I didn't start livin'
Until I started lovin' you
Yeah, I didn't start livin'
Until I started lovin' you
