Dans Met Mij Tot Morgenvroeg


Dans Met Mij Tot Morgenvroeg
Performer(s): Willy Sommers



Je mag eindelijk met mij uitgaan
Maar je moet weg voor middernacht
Toch laat ik je niet naar huis gaan
Voor het einde van de nacht

Dans met mij tot morgenvroeg
Dans met mij de hele nacht
Kom neem m'n hand en dans met mij
Neem de tijd en voel je vrij
Wees gelukkig tot de morgendauw

Dans met mij tot morgenvroeg
Dans met mij de hele nacht
Wie weet wat ik nog meer verzin
Voor een nieuwe dag begint
Zeg ik beslist nog wel
'Ik hou van jou'

Kijk het is al middernacht
Men heeft vergeefs op jou gewacht
Maar je kust me, en je lacht
Liefste jij maakt me geen verwijt
En je toont niet de minste spijt
Morgen heb je nog al de tijd

Dans met mij tot morgenvroeg
Dans met mij de hele nacht
Kom neem m'n hand en dans met mij
Neem de tijd en voel je vrij
Wees gelukkig tot de morgendauw

Dans met mij tot morgenvroeg
Dans met mij de hele nacht
Wie weet wat ik nog meer verzin
Voor een nieuwe dag begint
Zeg ik beslist nog wel
'Ik hou van jou'

Oh go home, better go back home
Now Louie, where you been?

Arianne


Arianne
Composer(s): Martin Charnin - Christian Roudey
Performer(s): The Neville Brothers; Johnny Mathis



Arianne's an April morning
That comes rippling through my window
She's the smell of coffee brewing
On a quiet rainy Sunday
And the purring of a kitten
That has made my neck
A pillow for it's head

Arianne's the silly music
That my father used to whistle
She's the new leaf on the fern
That I had given up last winter
And what writer's have to feel like
When they suddenly discover
They've been read

Arianne is mama's crystal
Bread that's nearly finished baking
And the rainbow in a puddle
And the happiest of birthdays
Then the going off on Friday
And the coming back on Monday
With a tan

Arianne is made of feelings
So I milk her of her kisses
And I swallow up her breathing
And I taste her where she loves me
And I'm filled to over flowing
But there's always room for more of Arianne

Arianne is mama's crystal
Bread that's nearly finished baking
And the rainbow in a puddle
And the happiest of birthdays
Then the going off on Friday
And the coming back on Monday
With a tan

Arianne is made of feelings
So I milk her of her kisses
And I swallow up her breathing
And I taste her where she loves me
And I'm filled to over flowing
But there's always room for more of Arianne

Wenn Uns're Liebe Ewig So Bliebe


Wenn Uns're Liebe Ewig So Bliebe
Performer(s): Howard Carpendale



Wenn unsere Liebe ewig so bliebe
wär ich der glücklichste Mensch
denn ich hätt' alles
was ich mir wünsch'

Ein Leben ganz ohne Liebe
ist wie ein Sommer ohne Sonnenschein

Hey
hey
heut ist ein Tag
er kann nicht schöner sein
hey
hey
weil ich dich mag
laß ich dich nie allein

Wenn unsere Liebe ewig so bliebe
wär ich der glücklichste Mensch
denn ich hätt' alles
was ich mir wünsch'

Verliebt sein kann wunderschön sein
wer von der Liebe nicht träumt
hat viel versäumt

Oh
ich glaubte nie daran
daß ich so treu sein kann
doch dann kamst du und mir war klar

Immer frohe Stunden
seit wir uns gefunden
und sie werden für uns nie vergehn

Oh
wenn unsere Liebe ...

Wenn unsere Liebe ewig so bliebe
wär ich der glücklichste Mensch
denn ich hätt' alles
was ich mir wünsch'

Verliebt sein kann wunderschön sein
wer von der Liebe nicht träumt
hat viel versäumt

La La La La La La La La La
Ooh, Ooh

It's gonna take a lotta love
To change the way things are
It's gonna take a lotta love
Or we won't get too far
So if you look in my direction
And we don't see eye to eye
My heart needs protection and so do I

It's gonna take a lotta love
To get us thru the night
It's gonna take a lotta love
To make things work out right
So if you are out there waitin'
I hope you show up soon
'Cause my heart needs relaxing not solitude

Gotta lotta love
Gotta lotta love
La La La La La La La La La
Ooh, Ooh

It's gonna take a lotta love
To change the way things are
It's gonna take a lotta love
Or we won't get too far
It's gonna take a lotta love
To change the way things are

Ariel


Ariel
Composer(s): Dean Friedman
Performer(s): Dean Friedman



Way on the other side of the Hudson
Deep in the bosom of suburbia
I met a young girl she sang mighty fine
Tears on my pillow and Ave Maria
Standing by the water fall in Paramus Park
She was working for the friends of Bai
She was collecting quarters in a paper cup
She was looking for change and so was I

She was a Jewish girl
I fell in love with her
She wrote her number on the back of my hand
I called her up,
I was all out of breath
I said, "Come hear me play in my rock and roll band"
I took a shower and I put on my best blue jeans
I picked her up in my new V double U van
She wore a peasant blouse with nothing underneath
I said "Hi"
She said, "yeah, I guess I am"
Ariel, Ariel

We had a little time, we were real hungry
We went to Dairy Queen for something to eat
She had some onion rings, she had a pickle
She forgot to tell me how she didn't eat meat
I had a gig in the American Legion hall
It was a dance for the Volunteer Ambulance Corps
She was sitting in a corner against the wall
She would smile and I melted all over the floor
Ariel, Ariel

I took her home with me, we watched some TV
Annette Funicello and some guy going steady
I started fooling around with the verticle hold
We got the munchies so I made some spaghetti
We sat and we talked into the night
While channel 2 was signing off the air
I found the softness of her mouth
We made love, the bombs bursting in air
Ariel, Ariel
Ariel, Ariel

Way on the other side of the Hudson
Deep in the bosom of suburbia
I met a young girl
She sang mighty fine
Tears on my pillow and Ave Maria

Tears on my pillow and Ave Maria
Tears on my pillow and Ave Maria

Lots Of Luck


Lots Of Luck
Composer(s): Eddie Miller
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb



My heart will break as I watch you go
But your kind of love is hard to hold
It seems you and I are losing touch
So I'll wish you love …
And honey lots of luck

Well lots of luck and a big goodbye
And you can't say I didn't try
It well could be that I tried too much
And that's why you're leavin’ …
But honey lots of luck

Ah Leon

Now you want love and a big gold mine
Well that combination is hard to find
Cause money don't always walk with luck
But you can go looking …
And honey lots of luck

Well lots of luck and a big goodbye
And you can't say I didn't try
It well could be that I tried too much
And that's why you're leavin’ …
But honey lots of luck

Well honey lots of luck …

Go on and leave now …

And baby lots of luck …

L'Ostendaise


L'Ostendaise
((English Version: Girl in an Armchair (by Amanda McBroom))
Composer(s): Gérard Jouannest - Jacques Brel
Performer(s): Jacques Brel



Une Ostendaise
Pleure sur sa chaise
Le chat soupèse
Son poids d'amour
Dans le silence
Son chagrin danse
Et les vieux pensent
Chacun son tour
À la cuisine
Quelques voisines
Parlent de Chine
Et d'un retour
À Singapore
Une Javanaise
Devient belle-sœur
De l'Ostendaise

Il y a deux sortes de temps
Il y a le temps qui attend
Et le temps qui espère
Il y a deux sortes de gens
Il y a les vivants
Et ceux qui sont en mer

Notre Ostendaise
Que rien n'abaise
De chaise en chaise
Va sa blessure
Quelques commères
Quelques compères
Battent le fer
De sa blessure
Son capitaine
Sous sa bedaine
De bière pleine
Bat le tambour
Homme de devoir
Homme d'étoiles
Il prend l'escale
Pour un détour

Il y a deux sortes de temps
Il y a le temps qui attend
Et le temps qui espère
Il y a deux sortes de gens
Il y a les vivants
Et ceux qui sont en mer

Notre Ostendaise
Au temps des fraises
Devient maîtresse
D'un pharmacien
Son capitaine
Mort sous bedaine
Joue les baleines
Les sous-marins
Pourquoi ma douce
Moi le faux mousse
Que le temps pousse
T'écrire de loin
C'est que je t'aime
Et tant je t'aime
Qu'ai peur ma reine
D'un pharmacien

Il y a deux sortes de temps
Il y a le temps qui attend
Et le temps qui espère
Il y a deux sortes de gens
Il y a les vivants
Et moi je suis en mer

Ari's Song


Ari's Song
Composer(s): Nico
Performer(s): Nico



Sail away, sail away my little boy
Let the wind fill your heart with light and joy
Sail away my little boy

Let the rain wash away your cloudy days
Sail away into a dream
Let the wind send you a fantasy
Of the ancient silver sea

Now you see that only dreams
Can send you where you want to be
Now you find those faces
Are not holding places
Where you thought they'd be
And later as you go again
You will agree
That it was all a dream

Sail away, sail away my little boy
Let the wind fill your heart with light and joy
Sail away my little boy

Lost Weekend


Lost Weekend
Composer(s): Wall of Voodoo
Performer(s): Wall of Voodoo



Drivin' outta Vegas in their automobile
She was in the back seat while he was at the wheel
With the windows wide open

All the money from the store, they'd gambled away
He said "the best laid plans often go astray"

She took the page of a book and turned it down
She lit a cigarette, she didn't make a sound

"And I know, if we'd had just one more chance," he said
"I know, we'd finally hit the big one at last", she said

(Instead of) another lost weekend
Lost weekend
Another lost weekend
Lost weekend

"Pull over soon," she said, "it's no big deal
You can take any exit that you happen to feel
Is the right one"
The right one

As she slowly blew her smoke out the rear wind vent
She thought back on all the letters she'd sent
For a contest to be on a quiz game show

"Maybe I shoulda stayed in school," he said
"Yeah, I know––start your own business cleanin' swimming pools," she said

(Instead of) another lost weekend
Lost weekend
Another lost weekend
Lost weekend

(Instead of) another lost weekend
Lost weekend
Another lost weekend
Lost weekend

She leaned over the front seat and twiddled with the radio dial
She looked out the window, saw a sign, and both of them began to smile
"There's a place we can stay at ... it's up another mile"

If the sun doesn't always shine
Dum dum dum dum

After all is said and done
You're the only one

Should I ever be far away
Dum dum dum dum
My love is with you night and day
Dum dum dum dum

Marble breaks and iron bends
But our love will never end

Marble breaks and iron bends
But our love will never end

Til I give you a band of gold
Dum dum dum dum
Take my heart now to have and hold
Dum dum dum dum

Marble breaks and iron bends
But our love will never end

Marble breaks and iron bends
But our love will never end

Marble breaks and iron bends

Marble breaks and iron bends

Lost Symphony


Lost Symphony
Performer(s): Steve Howe



Two-sided through four sides
We slide
Are we up, are we down?
Twirling round and round
Spectral spaces found
Leaves enjoy their autumn
Do you like the fall?
Suppose yourself above it all
In our self-made worlds

Well, I met her when an old established
Twining friendship failed
You'd think by now
It would be right, that I'm not nailed
To some obscure note
That runs along a board
In our self-made worlds
Do we rote

Changes into harmony
Revolutions oiled to that symphony

Always True To You In My Fashion


Always True To You In My Fashion
Composer(s): Cole Porter
First performance/First recording/First release by: Lisa Kirk - 1948/1949/1949
Covered by multiple other artists



Oh, Bill
Why can't you behave
Why can't you behave?
How in hell can you be jealous
When you know, baby, I'm your slave?
I'm just mad for you
And I'll always be
But naturally.....

If a custom-tailored vet
Asks me out for something wet
When the vet begins to pet, I cry "hooray!"
But I'm always true to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darlin', in my way

I enjoy a tender pass
By the boss of Boston, Mass
Though his pass is middle-class and not Backa Bay
But I'm always true to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darlin' in my way

There's a madman known as Mack
Who is planning to attack
If his mad attack means a Cadillac, okay!
But I'm always true to to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darlin' in my way

I've been asked to have a meal
By a big tycoon in steel
If the meal includes a deal, accept I may
But I'm always true to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, Darlin' in my way

I could never curl my lip
To a dazzlin' diamond clip
Though the clip meant "Let 'er rip", I'd not say "Nay!"
But I'm always true to to you, darlin, in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darlin' in my way

There's an oil man known as "Tex"
Who is keen to give me checks
And his checks, I fear, mean that sex is here to stay!
But I'm always true to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darlin' in my way

There's a wealthy Hindu priest
Who's a wolf, to say the least
When the priest goes too far East, I also stray
But I'm always true to to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darlin'in my way

There's a lush from Portland, Ore
Who is rich but such a bore
When the bore falls on the floor, I let him lay
But I'm always true to to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darlin',in my way

Mister Harris, plutocrat
Wants to give my cheek a pat
If the Harris pat means a Paris hat, Bébé, Oo-la-la!
Mais je suis toujours fidele, darlin', in my fashion
Oui, je suis toujours fidele, darlin', in my way

From Ohio, Mister Thorne
Calls me up from night 'til morn
Mister Thorne once corner'd corn and that ain't hay
But I'm always true to to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darlin', in my way

From Milwaukee, Mister Fritz
Often moves me to the Ritz
Mister Fritz is full of Schlitz and full of play
But I'm always true to to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darlin', in my way

Mister Gable, I mean Clark
Wants me on his boat to park
If the Gable boat means a sable coat, anchors aweigh!
But I'm always true to to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darlin', in my way

Lost River


Lost River
Composer(s): Michael Martin Murphey
First release by: Michael Martin Murphey - 1982



There's a lost river that flows
In a valley where no one goes
Where the wild waters rush
Rumbles deep in the hush

Gone far from there now
Lord I'll be back somehow
To where the lost river winds
In the shadow of the pines

Oh, lost river, now I'm coming back
To the pot-belly stove
Where the firewood's all stacked
Oh Quebec girl, go with me
Oh my belle, my fleur de lis
Where the lost river winds
In the shadow of the pines

Now everybody knows
Where that lost river flows
It's some place he's lost
Behind bridges that he's crossed

Well, he'd like to return
But his bridges are all burned
And he's much too far down
To return to higher ground

Oh, lost river, now I'm coming back
To the pot-belly stove
Where the firewoods all stacked
Oh Quebec girl, go with me
Oh my belle, my fleur de lis
Where the lost river winds
In the shadow of the pines

Oh, lost river, far over the ridge
Now is it too late
For me to build me a new bridge?
To the bright golden time
When her love was still mine
And the world was still wild
Like the heart of a child

Oh, lost river, now I'm coming back
To the pot-belly stove, where the firewood's all stacked
Oh Quebec girl, go with me
Oh my belle, my fleur de lis
Where the lost river winds
In the shadow of the pines

Where the lost river winds
In the shadow of the pines

Always Tomorrow


Always Tomorrow
Composer(s): Gloria Estefan
Performer(s): Gloria Estefan; The Latin Rhythm Connection



I’ve been alone inside myself, far too long
Never really wanted it that way, but I let it happen
If I could do it all again, my life would be infinitely better than before
I wouldn’t waste a moment
Make time for laughing with my friends
Make love, make music, make amends
Try to make a difference, try to love, try to understand
Instead of just giving up, I’d use the power at my command

That’s why there’s always tomorrow, to start over again
Things will never stay the same, the only one sure thing is change
That’s why there’s always tommorow

I guess it took a little time, for me to see
The reason I was born into this world
And what I’d have to go through
For I’ve finially realized, that I could beinfinitely better than before, defintely stronger
I’ll face whatever comes my way, savor each moment of the day
Love as many people as I can along the way
Help someone who’s given up, if it’s just to raise my eyes and pray

That’s why there’s always tomorrow, to start over again
Things will never stay the same, the only one sure thing is change
That’s why there’s always tommorow

Before your last setting sun
And everything your heart has longed for
Has yet to be (one)
Yes there’s always tomorrow though people come and they go
But if you,ve brought some love to their lives
Then you’ve got something to show

Lost It


Lost It
Composer(s): Boz Scaggs
Performer(s): Boz Scaggs; Maseneye



Another day, another mountain
Who's to say they never move
'Cause we moved one after another
Till there was nothing left to prove

Then we turned around and tossed it
After all that we'd been through
And when I look at what it cost us
I guess it's time I faced the truth

Maybe I lost it
When I lost you
Maybe I lost it
When I lost you

The night we climbed above the ruins
The gypsies sang
Those ancient Spanish blues
I saw a man awake but still dreaming
I saw myself in love with you

I walk around I think about it
And all the things that we went through
And the more I think about it
It wasn't you

.... that I lost
Was it the dream or just the notion
Well I lost it when I lost you

Always Together (The Dells)


Always Together
Composer(s): Bobby Miller - Helen Miller
Performer(s): The Dells



Just you, just me, always together
I made up my mind years ago
When I first gazed upon you I'd never let you go
And it's amazing baby
How we loved each other so
And we'll always be (always be)
Always together

We'll have our problems
But we'll face them with pride
Our love is protection
And we don't have to hide
And a thousand nights I'll kiss away
(The happy tears you cry)
And we'll always be (always be)
Always together

Just you, just me
Always, always, always,
Always, always, always,
When the years have turned
Your hair to silver
And the days of our youth
Have left us so very far behind
Golden, golden memories
Will keep in our minds
And we'll always be (always be)
Always together
Just you, just me
Always, always, always ...

Lost In The Supermarket


Lost In The Supermarket
Composer(s): Topper Headon - Paul Simonon - Joe Strummer - Mick Jones
First release by: The Clash - 1979
Covered by multiple other artists



I'm all lost in the supermarket
I can no longer shop happily
I came in here for that special offer
A guaranteed personality

I wasn't born so much as I fell out
Nobody seemed to notice me
We had a hedge back home in the suburbs
Over which I never could see

I heard the people who lived on the ceiling
Scream and fight most scarily
Hearing that noise was my first ever feeling
That's how it's been all around me

I'm all lost in the supermarket
I can no longer shop happily
I came in here for that special offer
A guaranteed personality

I'm all tuned in, I see all the programmes
I save coupons from packets of tea
I've got my giant hit discoteque album
I empty a bottle and I feel a bit free

The kids in the halls and the pipes in the walls
Make me noises for company
Long distance callers make long distance calls
And the silence makes me lonely

I'm all lost in the supermarket
I can no longer shop happily
I came in here for that special offer
A guaranteed personality

And it's not hear
It disappear
I'm all lost
