Let's Groove
Composer(s): Maurice White - Wayne Vaughn
First release by: Earth, Wind & Fire - 1981
Let this groove, get you to move
it's alright, alright
let this groove, set in your shoes
stand up, alright
Gonna tell you what you can do
with my love, alright
Let you know girl you're looking good
you're out of sight and alright
Move yourself and glide like a 747
loos yourself in the sky among the clouds in the heavens
Let this groove, light up your fuse, alright
Let this groove, set in your shoes
stand up, alright
Let me tell you what you can do
with my love, alright
Gotta let you know girl you're looking good
you're out of sight, you're alright
Tell the DJ to play your favorite tune
then you know it's okay
What you found is happiness, now
Let this groove, get you to move, alright
Let this groove set in your shoes
stand up, alright
You will find peace of mind on the floor
Take a little time, come and see, you and me
make a little sign, I'll be there after a while
if you want my love
We can boogie on down, down, down, down
Let's groove tonight
share the spice of life
baby slice it right
we're gonna groove tonight

Bronco
Bronco
Performer(s): Paul Sawtell
Bronco, Bronco
Tearin' across the Texas plain
Bronco, Bronco
Bronco Layne
Born down around the old Panhandle
Texas is where he grew to fame
There ain't a horse that he can't handle
That's how he got his name
Bronco, Bronco
Tearin' across the Texas plain
Bronco, Bronco
Bronco Layne
Next to a four square Texas twister
You'd call a cyclone weak and mild
You've never seen a twister, mister
`Til someone gets him riled
Bronco, Bronco
Tearin' across the Texas plain
Bronco, Bronco
Bronco Layne
Show me a gal who's kissed him once
I'll show you a gal who's kissed him twice
Once any gal has kissed him twice
She's dreamin' of shoes and rice
Bronco, Bronco
Tearin' across the Texas plain
Bronco, Bronco
Bronco Layne

I, I'm so in love with you
Whatever you want to do
Is all right with me
'Cause you make me feel so brand new
And I want to spend my life with you
Since, since we've been together
Loving you forever
Is what I need
Let me be the one you come running to
I'll never be untrue
Let's, let's stay together
Lovin' you whether, whether
Times are good or bad, happy or sad
Whether times are good or bad, happy or sad
Why, why some people break up
Then turn around and make up
I just can't see
You'd never do that to me (would you, baby)
Staying around you is all I see
(Here's what I want us to do)
(repeat)
Let's, we oughta stay together
Loving you whether, whether
Times are good or bad, happy or sad ...

Broken Wings (The Stargazers)
Broken Wings
Performer(s): The Stargazers
With Broken wings, no bird can fly
And broken promises mean love must fade and die
I trusted you, you can't be true
My heart no longer sings
It's wings are broken too
Life was wonderful
I flew as high as a bird in the sky
Dreaming of you
Dreams coming true
Then in your eyes
I saw lies in disguise
You broke me heart in two
With Broken wings, no bird can fly
And broken promises mean lLove must fade and die
With Broken wings, no bird can fly
My heart no longer sings
It's wings are broken too

Composer(s): Jeff Barry - Ellie Greenwich - Phil Spector - Georges Aber
Performer(s): Les Surfs - 1963
On a eu tort de vouloir nous séparer
On a eu tort aujourd'hui je peux bien l'avouer
Tout comme un enfant perdu
Je vais seul au long des rues
N'ayant que le regret d'avoir tout gâché
Oh je t'en prie
Reviens vite: Tu sais que je t'aime
Reviens vite: Dans la nuit je traîne
Reviens vite: Mon âme est en peine
Reviens vite: oh oh oh oh
Tous tes amis t'ont donné bien sûr raison
Et tes parents t'ont aidée, les gens sont trop bons
Mes parents et mes amis m'ont tous dit bravo aussi
Mais aujourd'hui je sais que c'est insensé
Oh je t'en prie
Reviens vite: Tu sais que je t'aime
Reviens vite: Dans la nuit je traîne
Reviens vite: Mon âme est en peine
Reviens vite: oh oh oh oh
Oh je t'en prie
Reviens vite: Tu sais que je t'aime
Reviens vite: Dans la nuit je traîne
Reviens vite: Mon âme est en peine
Reviens vite: oh oh oh oh

Broken Places
Broken Places
Composer(s): Maggie Roche
Performer(s): The Roches
Did you know me
Long ago
Were we close
Before the sorrow
If you thought of leaving any traces
I'll be sifting through the broken places
Did I know you
Once upon a time
You dreamed of me
And now I'm
Searching for myself in strangers' faces
Stumbling onto further broken places
She turns purple
Am I blue
Can't she fathom
What I do
Trying to get in her better graces
Touching her in all the broken places
I get crazy
Not sure why
Solace beckons
Until I
Go tearing off again on wild chases
Crashing into same old broken places
I am young so
Who's to say
But for now I
Have no way
Of knowing how much healing time erases
Certain of these secret broken places
Can't there be a
Little breather?
Our love is a
Real seether
To sore hearts we plead our hapless cases
Rendezvousing at the broken places
I love you for
All of this
Struggling towards
Happiness
When the chips are down we play our aces
Hiding them in our broken places

Let's Sit This One Out (Vic Damone)
Let's Sit This One Out
Composer(s): Sammy Cahn - Jimmy Van Heusen
Performer(s): Vic Damone
When I asked you to go dancing, I confess
That I was thinking of dancing, more or less
But right now your eyes are filled with stars and glist'ning
And they're playing a song especially nice for list'ning
What I mean is
Let's sit this one out, please, Baby
In some dark corner of the hall
I just want to hear the band for a while
And hold your hand for a while
And then perhaps, we'll dance again
If you love me
Let's just wander off and maybe
They may not miss us, Dear, at all
It's the best part of romancing
And more fun than just dancing
You'll agree if you'll sit this one out with me
Sit this one out with me

Br-oooo-ken hearted me-eee-lo-dy
Ooooonce you were our song of love

His tender love
Oh
Broken hearted melody
Must you keep reminding me
Of the lips I long to kiss
And the love I miss since he went away
Night and day they play
But, broken hearted melody
That he used to sing to me
When our love was young and bright
As he held me tight
Suddenly I found: I was out of bound
Brooooken hearted melody
Ooooonce you were my song of love
Nooooow you just keep taunting me
Wiiiiiith the memory of (ba-da-da)
His tender love
Oh
Broken hearted melody
Won't you bring him back to me
Sing to him until he hears
For when he returns no more will he be
A broken hearted melody
Oooooooo, oo-oo, oo-oo, oo-oo, ooooooooo
Oooooooo, oo-oo, oo-oo, oo-oo, ooooooooo. . .

Composer(s): Jimmy McHugh - Dorothy Fields
Performer(s): Eve Becke & Harry Bentley; Charlie Kunz
Eve:
I rather like this tune, don’t you Harry
Harry:
I don’t mind it a lot
I say, Eve, your dancing is improving lately
Eve:
Oh, do you really think so, Harry
Harry:
Well, you’re dancing on your own feet now
Eve:
Thank you!
What a lot of people here tonight
Harry:
Yes, there are, rather; I was just going to say
Eve:
I hate crowds, don’t you?
Harry:
Mmm, I don’t like them a lot
Eve:
Too many people in them, Hmm?
Harry:
Yes, quite (heh!)
Do you think we ought to sit out?
Eve:
I think I’d like to
There’re two chairs over there
They look frightfully lonely
Harry:
Shall we join them?
Eve:
OK, I’d love to
Harry:
Great
Harry:
That’s better
Ooh
Rather hard, would you like a cushion?
Eve:
No thank you, Harry
Harry:
Or perhaps put my arm in the way
Eve:
I rather like it
Harry:
D’you know, I do too
Hmm, just a little bit closer
That’s better
Harry:
Let’s sit this one out, my sweet
Get a breath of air, and rest your feet
My old car has a big back seat
So let’s sit this one out
Eve:
I’m so happy now we’ve met
Can’t we have a cosy cigarette
Our last dance got me all upset
So let’s sit this one out
Harry:
I know in the moonlight
Our love cannot miss
Give me a kiss
One little kiss
Eve:
I’m in such a whirl, my dear
Can’t we find a place with no one near
Harry:
Where you’ll say what I long to hear
Both:
So let’s sit this one out

Il faut croire aux étoiles
Qui te disent, ne tremble pas
La vie n'est qu'une escale
Tous les hommes sont comme toi
Quand les feuilles mortes
Tombent sur ton cœur
Pour laisser la porte
S'ouvrir au bonheur
Il faut croire aux étoiles
Tes angoisses et tes tourments
Ne sont qu'un grain de sable
Qu'une larme dans l'océan
Moi dans le silence
D'une belle nuit
J'ai repris confiance
J'ai trouvé l'oubli
Il faut croire aux étoiles
Jusqu'à l'aube du dernier jour
Il faut croire aux étoiles
À la chance et à l'amour

Broken Hearted Me
Broken Hearted Me
Composer(s): Randy Goodrum
Performer(s): Anne Murray;
England Dan & John Ford Coley; Mantovani
Every now and then I cry
Every night you keep stayin' on my mind
All my friends say I'll survive
It just takes time
Chorus
But I don't think time is gonna heal this broken heart
No I don't see how it can if it's broken all apart
A million miracles could never stop the pain
Or put all the pieces together again
No I don't think time is gonna heal this broken heart
No I don't see how it can while we are still apart
And when you hear this song
I hope that you will see
That time won't heal a broken-hearted me
Every day is just the same
Playin' games, different lovers, different names
They keep sayin' I'll survive
It just takes time
Chorus
Time won't heal a broken-hearted me

Let's Sing A Love Song
Let's Sing A Love Song
Composer(s): Lobo
Performer(s): Petula Clark
I know I'm a woman
With a life of my own
I packed up and left you
I call another place home
Ah, but sometimes being grown
Is a hard thing to do
That's the time
I start thinking of you
So, let's sing a love song
Like we used to do
Just sing a love song
To see me through
We can sit in the backyard
On our old wide swing
I know I'll feel better
The moment I start to sing
That's the time
My worries leave me for a while
That's the time
Once again I'm that child
So, let's sing a love song
Like we used to do
Just need a love song
To see me through
But a lot of things change
As we grow old
Ah some things we buy
And others are sold
Ah, but one thing won't change
No matter what we do
That's the way I feel
When I'm with you
So, let's sing a love song
Like we used to do
Just need a love song
To see me through
Let's sing a love song
To see me through
