Looking For Yesterday
Looking For Yesterday
Composer(s): Eddie DeLange - Jimmy Van Heusen
Performer(s): Woody Herman
and multiple other artists
Looking for yesterday
Most any day I spent with you
One yesterday when I still had a laugh or two
One dance to our fav'rite tune
Then to our fav'rite lane
Who cares if there is no moon
Or we're drenched with rain
Looking for yesterday
Before you wrapped the sun in clouds
One yesterday before I hid away in crowds
My heart lives in misery
Always a stone in its shoe
Looking for yesterday and you

Dentro Di Me
Dentro Di Me
First performance by: Barbara Berta - 1997
Uomo, guardati dentro, cosa ti scuote
E ti fa sentire un po' perso
In questo enorme universo
Fatto di tante
Troppe parole dette per dire
Mai per capire, cosa ti spinge lontano
Da quel che è portata di mano
Ma irraggiungibile
Dentro di me faccio spazio perché
Dentro di me, ho bisogno di te
Dentro di me, dentro di me
Tengo un posto per te
Che hai bisogno di me
Hai bisogno di me
Uomo, apri la mente
Non esitare a scoprirti nel bene e nel male
Anche gli errori hanno il loro valore
Aiutano a crescere
Dentro di me faccio spazio perché (perché)
Dentro di me ho bisogno di te
Dentro di me, dentro di me
Tengo un posto per te
Che hai bisogno di me
Dentro di me prendo fiato perché
Dentro di me ho corso fino da te
Dentro di me, dentro di me
Io ti voglio per sé
Sei diverso da me
Sei diverso da me
Uomo, quanti misfatti
Quali ragioni, ci spingono tanto lontano
Quando a portata di mano
Hai l'incredibile

Loose Talk
Loose Talk
Composer(s): Freddie Heart - Ann Lucas
First release by: Freddie Heart - 1954
Covered by multiple other artists
So long we've been married
Life's burdens we carried
Though faith kept us humble and made our love true
But plans that we make up
Someone seems to break up
Oh, darlin', what else can we do?
We may have to leave here
To find peace of mind, dear
Someplace where we can live a life of our own
I know you love me And happy we could be
If some folks would leave us alone
When I go out walkin'
There's lots of loose talkin'
They say we're unhappy, and we'll drift apart
But darlin' it's not true
Because I still love you
And I do with all of my heart
They say you are leavin'
That you are deceivin'
But you tell me they say the same about me
Oh, but we'll show them they're wrong
That loose talk can do harm
And hope that the truth they will see
We may have to leave here
To find peace of mind, dear
Someplace where we can live a life of our own
I know you love me
And happy we could be
If some folks would leave us alone
If some folks would leave us alone

Looking For The Time (Workin' Girl)
Looking For The Time (Workin' Girl)
Composer(s): Nanci Griffith
Performer(s): Nanci Griffith
Well, I work this corner from eleven to five
the hands get cold around midnight
You're askin' me if I've got the time
Well I don't know, but you're wastin' mine tonight
Whoa ... you say you're looking for the time
Well, I'm a workin' girl, you just wasted mine
If you ain't got money take it down the avenue
'cuz I ain't got time for you until daylight
This sidewalk ice is cold as steel
I'm not Dorothy, I can't click my heels
One of these days I'll move to L.A.
Where the nights stay warm and the boys come out to play
Whoa ... you say you're looking for the time
Well, I'm a workin' girl, you just wasted mine
If you ain't got money take it down the avenue
'cuz I ain't got time for you until daylight
Don't the snow light up the midnight sky
The snow plows roll and the limos fly
Don't you know
It's just another night
Oh, once I had a lover who treated me right
He lived so wrong he's doin' ninety-nine
Oh, I wish you had the money and I had the time
'Cuz I'd just let those limos slide on by

Soul Deep
Soul Deep
Composer(s): Wayne Carson
First release by: Clarence Carter - 1969
Covered by multiple other artists
Darlin' I don't know much
I know I love you so much
A lot depends on your touch
My love is a river running soul deep
A way down inside me it's a soul deep
Too big to hide, can't be denied
Love is a river running soul deep
I worked myself to euphoria
Just to show I adore ya
There's nothing I wouldn't do for ya
Cause my love is a river running soul deep
A way down inside me it's a soul deep
Too big to hide, can't be denied
Love is a river running soul deep
All I ever, ever hoped to be
Depends on your love for me
If you believe me, if you should leave me
I'd be nothing but a jilted male
I know darned well, I could tell, but
I don't know much
I know I love you so much
A lot depends on your touch
My love is a river running soul deep
A way down inside me it's a soul deep
Too big to hide, can't be denied
Love is a river running soul deep
My love is a river running soul deep
A way down inside me it's a soul deep
My love is a river running soul deep
A way down inside me it's a soul deep
My love is a river running soul deep
A way down inside me it's a soul deep...

Looking For The Right One
Looking For The Right One
Composer(s): Stephen Bishop
Performer(s): Stephen Bishop
I've been so unlucky, I'm no good at playing games
I remember their faces; forget their names
Thought I'd found the right one, but she hasn't found me
So I bundle up my emotions and start
Looking For The Right One
But will the right one ever come along?
Oh, I'm Looking For The Right One
When will the right one come along?
They say there's no use runnin' after something you'll never get
But my heart says, "Don't say no"
Somewhere in this lonesome city is the woman for me
But would I wait another lifetime just to keep on
Looking For The Right One
But will the right one ever come along?
Oh, I'm Looking For The Right One
When will the right one come along?
They say love always comes and goes
Well, that I already know
Yes, I really know
Looking For The Right One
But will the right one ever come along?
Looking For The Right One
But will the right one come along?

Niemand Heeft Nog Tijd
Niemand Heeft Nog Tijd
First performance by: Mrs. Einstein - 1997
Waar moet je heen met al je vragen
Als er niemand luisteren wil
Wat doe je met je lege dagen
Het liefst zet je de tijd heel even stil
Voordat je iemand hebt gevonden
Die tien minuten voor je heeft
Nou dat kan wel even duren
Je hoopt dat jij dan nog wel leeft
Want niemand heeft nog tijd
Alleen nog tijd om zich te haasten
Nee, niemand heeft nog tijd
Alleen nog maar om aan zichzelf te denken
Nee, nee, niemand heeft nog tijd
Niemand heeft nog tijd
Je snapt niets meer van de wereld
De tijd is duur want tijd is geld
Stilstaan is uit den boze
Dus tempo dat is wat er telt
De mensen blijven nog wel geven
Staan nooit stil bij hun gevoel
Snel kunnen zij per computer
Nog iets storten voor het goede doel
Want niemand heeft nog tijd
Alleen nog tijd om zich te haasten
Nee, niemand heeft nog tijd
Alleen nog maar om aan zichzelf te denken
Nee, nee, niemand heeft nog tijd
Niemand heeft nog tijd
Niemand heeft nog tijd, niemand heeft nog tijd
Niemand heeft nog tijd, niemand nee nee
Gaan wij ooit beseffen
Er is veel meer dan de factor tijd
Sta even stil, laat je verleiden
Tot wat meer gevoeligheid...

Call Her Your Sweetheart
Call Her Your Sweetheart
Composer(s): Leon Payne
Performer(s): Eddy Arnold; Frank Ifield; Alma Cogan
Call her your sweetheart whenever she feels blue
You know there's not a thing she wouldn't do for you
And when you are tempted to wander astray
Remember there are times she feels the very same way
Share all your sunshine and all your heartaches too
Let her know that she means more than all the world to you
You'll find the future holds a treasure worth much more than gold
If you'll only call her your sweetheart
Share all your sunshine and all your heartaches too
Let her know that she means more than all the world to you
You'll find the future holds a treasure worth much more than gold
If you'll only call her your sweetheart

Be yourself and live a little
Don't bother painting your face
Tomorrow it may rain and colors run

Don't be afraid of the people that belittle our love
Oh our love
Just be yourself
Just be yourself
Oh our love, oh our love

Fiumi Di Parole
Fiumi Di Parole
Composer(s): C. DiDomenico - A. Drusian - F. Ricci
First performance by: Jalisse - 1997
ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Mi aspetto mille scuse
come sempre da te
sei un fiume di parole
dove anneghi anche me
che bravo che sei
ma questo linguaggio da talk show
cosa c'entra con noi
Provo l'unico rimedio
che adotto da un po'
la mia testa chiude l'audio
la storia la so
Sei fatto così
dovrei limitarmi oramai
a dirti di sì
Fiumi di parole
fiumi di parole tra noi
prima o poi ci portano via
ti darò il mio cuore
ti darò il mio cuore se vuoi
se puoi ora parla con lui
ora parla con lui
Tu che gridi in un dialetto
che non è il mio
io che perdo il tuo rispetto
sarebbe meglio un addio
è come in un film
il classico film dove lei
farà la pazzia
Fiumi di parole
fiumi di parole tra noi
prima o poi ci portano via
ti darò il mio cuore
ti darò il mio cuore se vuoi
se puoi ora parla con lui
Vorrei fermare un'immagine
sentirla entrare dentro di me
un tuo silenzio più complice
vorrei
prima o poi ci portano via
ti darò il mio cuore
ti darò il mio cuore se vuoi
se puoi ora parla con lui
Fiumi di parole
fiumi di parole tra noi
prima o poi ci portano via
ti darò il mio cuore
ti darò il mio cuore se vuoi
se puoi ora parla con lui
ora parla con lui
ah ah ah ah
Fiumi di parole
fiumi di parole tra noi
prima o poi ci portano via
Fiumi di parole

Looks Like We Made It
Looks Like We Made It
Composer(s): Richard Kerr - Will Jennings
Performer(s): Barry Manilow
and multiple other artists
There you are
Lookin' just the same as you did
Last time I touched you
And, here I am
Close to gettin' tangled up
Inside the thought of you
Do you love him
as much as I love her
And will that love be strong
When old feelings start to stir
Looks like we made it
Left each other on the way
To another love
Looks like we made it
Or I thought so, till today
Until you were there
everywhere
And all I could taste was love
the way we made it
Love's so strange
Playin' hide and seek, with hearts
And always hurtin'
And we're the fools
Standin' close enough to touch
Those burnin' memories
And if I hold you
For the sake of all those times
love made us lose our minds
Could I ever let you go
Oh, no ... we made it
Left each other, on the way
To another love
Looks like we made it
Or I thought so, till today
Until you were there
everywhere
And all I could taste was love
the way we made it

Looking For Eden
Looking For Eden
Composer(s): Ian Anderson
Performer(s): Ian Anderson
As I drove down the road to look for Eden
saw two young girls but left them standing there
They were too late to get home on the underground
and probably too drunk, too drunk to care
Can anyone tell me the way to Eden?
I'll ask them there, have they a job for me
I'm not a fussy man, I can weed and hoe
I'll be her Adam, she can be my Eve
And where on earth are all those songs of Eden
The fairy tales, the shepherds and wise men
Just one old dosser lurching down Oxford Street
to spend his Christmas lying in the rain
Don't anybody know the way to Eden
I'm tired of living my life in free-fall
They say it's somewhere out on the edge of town
Perhaps it isn't really there at all
Looking for Eden

Ah OwoooOwooo yea
Soul heaven, Soul Heaven
Had a dream last night
Soul heaven, Soul Heaven
Last night I dreamed I was in a concert
So many people you had to stand in line
One night only in Soul Heaven
I didn't want to wake up I was having such a good time
All of the Bar-keys were tuning up on stage
Jimi had his guitar getting ready to play
Sam was singing A Change Gonna Come
Otis was there Sitting On The Dock Of The Bay
There was a party in Soul Heaven
Superstars from the past
Standing room only so you better hurry
Buy your ticket, cause there going fast
Twenty Miles took a mean soul
Junior Walker had them dancing in the aisles
(Shoot`em Before They Run Now)
They stood up when Jackie sang Lonely Teardrops
When Sammy danced the crowd went wild
(Mr. Bojangles)
I thought I saw Ella standing with Mahalia
Backstage was Elvis with his Blue Suede Shoes
It started raining everybody just stayed there
To hear Z.Z. sing about home blues
Well now, there's a party
Soul Heaven
In Soul Heaven
Soul Heaven
Superstars from the past
Soul Heaven
Standing room only
Soul Heaven
so you better hurry
Soul Heaven
Buy your ticket,
Soul Heaven
Cause there going fast
There's a party in Soul Heaven
Superstars from the past
The Great Alan Jackson was a holding down the beat
When Marvin sang Let's Get It On
They jumped to their feet
Everybody start screaming they were standing on patience
When the curtain come up the mighty Temptations
King Curtis Blue Soul Serenade
Thought I saw Lady Day sitting in the shade
I Got Two Lovers And I Ain't Ashamed
Lord I love the way sweet Mary sang
It was getting kinda late, it was time to go
Two o'clock in bed they closed the show
I didn't want to wake up I was havin' such a good time
Ahhhh…I didn't want to wake up I was havin' a good time

Looks Like A Cold, Cold Winter
Composer(s): Al Goering - Caesar Petrillo - Jack Fulton
Performer(s): Bing Crosby
Looks like a cold, cold winter
Plenty of ice & snow
But we'll keep the love light in our hearts aglow
Looks like a long, long winter
Baby what do we care
As long as we have this love of ours to share
It's gonna be cold outside
It's gonna be warm inside
So we'll cuddle up by a cozy fire side by side
Looks like a cold, cold winter
Summer is far away
Until then I'll love you more & more each day
Gonna keep you warm until winter goes away
