My Heart Belongs To Me
My Heart Belongs To Me
Composer(s): Alan Gordon
Performer(s): Barbra Streisand
I got the feelin' the feelin's gone
My heart has gone to sleep
One of these mornin's I'll be gone
My heart belongs to me
Can we believe in fairytales
Can love survive when all else fails
Can't hide the feelin' the feelin's gone
My heart belongs to me
But now my love, hey, didn't I love you
But we knew what had to be
Somehow my love, I'll always love you
But my heart belongs to me
Put out the light and close your eyes
Come lie beside me, don't ask why
Can't hide the feelin' the feelin's gone
My heart belongs to me.
(But now my love, hey didn't I love you)
(Didn't I love you)
(Didn't I love you)
(Didn't I love you, baby)
Don't cry my love, I'll always love you
But my heart belongs to me
I got the feelin' the feelin's gone
My heart belongs to me
(Didn't I love you, didn't I love you)

Goodbye Dolly Gray
Goodbye Dolly Gray
Composer(s): Will D. Cobb; Paul Barnes
Performer(s): J.W. Myers;
Big Four Quartet; Harry MacDonough
I have come to say goodbye, Dolly Gray
It's no use to ask me why, Dolly Gray
There's a murmur in the air, you can hear it everywhere
It is the time to do and dare, Dolly Gray
Don't you hear the tramp of feet, Dolly Gray
Sounding through the village street, Dolly Gray
'Tis the tramp of soldiers' true in their uniforms so blue
I must say goodbye to you, Dolly Gray
Goodbye Dolly I must leave you, though it breaks my heart to go
Something tells me I am needed at the front to fight the foe
See, the boys in blue are marching and I can no longer stay
Hark, I hear the bugle calling, Goodbye Dolly Gray
Hear the rolling of the drums, Dolly Gray
Back from war the regiment comes, Dolly Gray
On your lovely face so fair, I can see a look of fear
For your soldier boy's not there, Dolly Gray
For the one you love so well, Dolly Gray
In the midst of battle fell, Dolly Gray
With his face toward the foe, as he died he murmured low
"I must say goodbye and go, Dolly Gray"
Goodbye Dolly I must leave you, though it breaks my heart to go
Something tells me I am needed at the front to fight the foe
See, the boys in blue are marching and I can no longer stay
Hark, I hear the bugle calling, Goodbye Dolly Gray

Téléphonez-Moi
Téléphonez-Moi
((Spanish Version: Por Teléfono (Dalida))
Composer(s): Orlando - Bernard Estardy
Performer(s): Dalida
Vous croyez que le monde entier
S'pend à mon téléphone
Que je suis toujours invitée
Par un Dieu, par un homme
Vous avez peur que je vous dise
Désolée ma soirée est prise
Et vous me dérangez en pleine vocalise
Vous me voyez comme une star
Mais je ne suis qu'une femme
Vous savez quelquefois la gloire
A fait des bleus à mon âme
J'ai envie d'écouter d'autres mots
Que ceux qu'on écrit dans les journaux
Faîtes mon numéro et jetez-vous à l'eau
Téléphonez-moi, téléphonez-moi
Je n'attends que ça
J'ai besoin d'une voix
Téléphonez-moi dans mon agenda
J'ai du temps pour moi
Téléphonez-moi
Je ne suis pas une panthère rose
Qui griffe et puis qui s'en va
Je n'vous aimerais pas over-dose
Si vous faîtes le premier pas
Vous m'croyez heureuse et tranquille
Mais je suis seule sur mon île
Sans vous toute ma vie ne tient qu'à un fil
Téléphonez-moi, téléphonez-moi
Je n'attends que ça
J'ai besoin d'une voix
Téléphonez-moi dans mon agenda
J'ai du temps pour moi
Téléphonez-moi
Un soir de 31 décembre
Dans la vallée des poupées
Elle était toute seule dans sa chambre
Personne ne l'a appelée
C'était la plus belle fille du monde
Elle était riche, elle était blonde
Pourtant au dernier coup de minuit
Adieu la vie
Téléphonez-moi, téléphonez-moi
C'est pas des histoires
Avant qu'il soit trop tard
Téléphonez-moi les pilules d'espoir
J'en prends tous les soirs
Téléphonez-moi, téléphonez-moi
Téléphonez-moi, téléphonez-moi...

My Heart Belongs To Daddy
My Heart Belongs To Daddy
Composer(s): Cole Porter
Originally performed by: Mary Martin
Covered by various other artists
I used to fall in love with all those boys who maul the young cuties
But now I find I’m more inclined to keep my mind on my duties
While tearing off a game of golf
I may make a play for the caddy
But when I do, I don’t follow through
‘cause my heart belongs to Daddy
If I invite a boy some night
To dine on my fine finnan haddie
I just adore his asking for more
But my heart belongs to Daddy
Yes my heart belongs to Daddy
So I simply couldn’t be bad
Yes, my heart belongs to Daddy
Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
So I want to warn you, laddie
Though I know you’re perfectly swell
But my heart belongs to Daddy
‘cause my Daddy he treats it so well
There was a dame that a football game
Made long for the strong undergraddie
I never dream of making the team
‘cause my heart belongs to daddy
Yes, my heart belongs to Daddy
So I simply couldn’t be bad
Yes, my heart belongs to Daddy
Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
So I want to warn you, laddie
Though I know you’re perfectly swell
That my heart belongs to Daddy
‘cause my Daddy, he treats it so well

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
Composer(s): Elton John; Bernie Taupin
Performer(s): Elton John;
and various other artists
When are you gonna come down
When are you going to land
I should have stayed on the farm
I should have listened to my old man
You know you can't hold me forever
I didn't sign up with you
I'm not a present for your friends to open
This boy's too young to be singing the blues
So goodbye yellow brick road
Where the dogs of society howl
You can't plant me in your penthouse
I'm going back to my plough
Back to the howling old owl in the woods
Hunting the horny back toad
Oh I've finally decided my future lies
Beyond the yellow brick road
What do you think you'll do then
I bet that'll shoot down your plane
It'll take you a couple of vodka and tonics
To set you on your feet again
Maybe you'll get a replacement
There's plenty like me to be found
Mongrels who ain't got a penny
Sniffing for tidbits like you on the ground

The Sound Of Silence
The Sound Of Silence
Composer(s): Paul Simon
First release by: Simon and Garfunkel - 1964
Covered by multiple other artists
Versions In Other Languages:
1965 - Het Geluid Van Stilte (Boudewijn de Groot)

1966 - La Tua Immagine (Mike Liddell & Gli Atomi)

1982 - Chanson D'innocence (Gérard Lenorman)
Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
Beneath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes where stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People listening without hearing
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one there
Disturbs the sound of silence
Fools, I said, you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you
But my words like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said, the words
Of the prophets are written
On the subway walls and tenement halls
And whispered in the sound of silence

My Heart Beat Like A Hammer
My Heart Beat Like A Hammer
Composer(s): Jeremy Spencer
Performer(s): Fleetwood Mac
I woke up one morning
Waking with the rising sun
Woke up one morning
Awakin' with the rising sun, ahh
Thought about my baby
Did I just do what she done
Well, I shoulda loved you more
I know I didn't treat her right
Oh, yes, I shoulda loved you more
I know I didn't treat her right
I know that a woman needs
Rollin' every day and night
Oh, yeah
Well, my heart beat like a hammer
My eyes plumb full of tears
Yes, my heart beat like a hammer
My eyes plumb full of tears
She's been gone about an hour
But it seems like a thousand years
Don't ever dog your woman
You know you're gonna ruin yourself
Don't ever dog your woman
You know you're gonna ruin yourself
Know that a woman she'll
Run off with somebody else
Oh, yeah

Goodbye To Love
Goodbye To Love
Composer(s): John Bettis; Richard Carpenter
Performer(s): The Carpenters;
and various other artists
I'll say goodbye to love
No one ever cared if I should live or die
Time and time again the chance for love has passed me by
And all I know of love is how to live without it
I just can't seem to find it
So I' ve made my mind up I must live my life alone
And thought it's not the easy way
I guees I' ve always known
I' d say goodbye to love
there are no tomorrows for this heart of mine
Surely time will lose these bitter memories
And I'll find that there is someone to believe in
And to live for
Something I could live for
All the years of useless search
Have finally reached an end
Loneliness and empty days will be my only friend
From this day love is forgotten
I'll go on as best I can
What lies in the future is a mistery to us all
No one can predict the well of fortune as it falls
there may come a time when I will see that I've been wrong
But for now this is my song
And it's goodbye to love
I'll say goodbye to love

Telephone Man
Telephone Man
Composer(s): Meri Wilson
Performer(s): Meri Wilson
I rented my apartment on a Monday at one
Singin' doo-lolly-lolly, shakey-bum, shakey-bum
Started movin' in it on a Tuesday at two
Singin' doo-lolly-lolly, shakey-doo, shakey-doo
Wednesday at three I called the phone company
Singin' hey baby, put a phone in for me
Thursday at four he came a-knockin' at my door
Singin' "Hey baby, I'm your telephone man
You just show me where you want it
And I'll put it where I can
I can put it in the bedroom
I can put it in the hall
I can put it in the bathroom
I can hang it on the wall
You can have it with a buzz
You can have it with a ring
And if you really want it
You can have a ding-a-ling
Because, hey baby, I'm your telephone man"
Can you believe that... and then he says...
"Now when other fellahs call you
Tell 'em how it all began"
Well... huh-huh...
My heart began a-thumpin'
And my mind began to fly
And I knew I wasn't dealing
With no ordinary guy
So while he was a-talkin'
I was thinking up my plan
Then my fingers did the walkin'
On the telephone man
Singin' hey-lolly-lolly, hey-lolly-lolly
Hey lolly-lolly, get it anyway you can
Right... huh... huh... huh...
So...
I got it in the bedroom
And I got it in the hall
And I got it in the bathroom
And he hung it on the wall
I got it with a buzz
And I got it with a ring
And when he told me what my number was
I got a ding-a-ling
A-singin' hey-lolly-lolly, hey lolly-lolly
Hey lolly-lolly, just a-doin' my thing
Huh... I never did anything like this before...

My Heart And I
My Heart And I
Composer(s): Richard Tauber; Tyshena
Performer(s): Josef Locke
and various other artists
We are in love with you, my heart and I
And we are always true, my heart and I
When you are far away each smile's a tear
But it's a lovely day when you are near
Maybe that love is blind when passion rules
And that my heart and I are just two fools
And yet my darling if you ever say goodbye
I know we both should die, my heart and I
Once in a lifetime a love dream comes true
Just once in a lifetime or never
I met my fate on the day I met you
The moment you kissed me I knew
Strange fascination seems to fill and hold me
Fateful temptation such as no one ever told me
Everything I would endure for you
Come what may, oh, I'll keep smiling through
My heart is yours so you just take it
It's only asking not to break it
We are in love with you, my heart and I
And we are always true, my heart and I
When you are far away each smile's a tear
But it's a lovely day when you are near
Maybe that love is blind when passion rules
And that my heart and I are just two fools
And yet my darling if you ever say goodbye
I know we both should die, my heart and I

Goodbye Sue
Goodbye Sue
Composer(s): Jimmy Rule; Lou Ricca; Jules Loman
Performer(s): Perry Como; Benny Goodman
They were standing in a crowded station
So unaware
Of all the people there!
I didn't mean to hear their conversation
But anyone could tell
It was their last farewell!
Good-bye Sue
All the best of luck to you!
You've been my only gal
What's more, my best pal!
Please don't cry
Smile until the clouds roll by!
Don't kiss me dear, just walk away
Or I could never ever say
Good-bye, good-bye Sue!
(Good-bye Sue) My little Sue!
(All the best of luck to you!) Good luck to you!
(You've been my only gal
What's more, my best pal!
My best pal!)
Please don't cry
Smile until the clouds roll by!
Don't kiss me dear, just walk away
Or I could never ever say
Good-bye, good-bye Sue!

Telephone Line
Telephone Line
Composer(s): Jeff Lynne
First release by: Electric Light Orchestra - 1976
Covered by multiple other artists
Hello--how are you
Have you been alright, through all those lonely nights
That's what I'd say, I'd tell you everything
If you'd pick up that telephone
Hey--how you feelin'
Are you still the same
Don't you realize the things we did were all for real not a dream
I just can't believe
They've all faded out of view
I look into the sky
And I wonder why
Telephone line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight
Telephone line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight
O.K. so no--one's answering
Well can't you just let it ring a little longer
I'll just sit tight, through the shadows of the night
Let it ring for evermore
Telephone line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight
Telephone line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight

My Head Is My Only House Unless It Rains
My Head Is My Only House Unless It Rains
Composer(s): Don Van Vliet
Originally performed by: Captain Beefheart
I'll let a train be my feet
If it's too far to walk to you
If a train don't go there I'll get a jet or a bus
Because I'm going to find you
You're going to see me shadow soon around you
And my head is my only house unless it rains
I walk the meadow plains
Water deserts are my eyes until I find you
I won't sleep until I find you
I won't eat until I find you
My heart won't beat until
I wrap my arms around you
My arms are just two things in the way
Until I can wrap them around you
You can make my sad song happy
Make a bad world good
I can feel you out there moving
You're mine, I know I'll find you
And my head is my only house until I've found you
I hate to have other people hear me sing this song
If this reaches you before I do
Follow it to "I love you"
That's where I'll find you
And my head is my only house until I find you

Goodbye Stranger
Goodbye Stranger
Composer(s): Roger Hodgson; Rick Davies
Performer(s): Supertramp
It was an early morning yesterday
I was up before the dawn
And I really have enjoyed my stay
But I must be movin' on
Like a king without a castle
Like a queen without a throne
I'm an early mornin' lover
And I must be movin' on
Now I believe in what you say
Is the undisputed truth
But I have to have things my own way
Just to keep me in my youth
Like a ship without an anchor
Like a slave without a chain
Just the thought of those sweet ladies
Sends a shiver through my brains
And I will go on shining
Shinin' like brand new.
I'll never look behind me
My troubles will be few
Chorus:
Goodbye stranger, it's been nice
Hope you find your paradise
Tried to see your point of view
Hope your dreams will all come true
Goodbye, Mary
Goodbye, Jane
Will we ever meet again?
Feel no sorrow, feel no shame
Come tomorrow, feel no pain
And sweet devotion, it's not for me
Just give me motion and set me free
And the land and the ocean far away
Is the life I've chosen everyday
Now some they do and some they don't
And some you just can't tell
And some they will and some they won't
With some it's just as well
You can laugh at my behaviour
That'll never bother me
Say the devil is my saviour
But I won't pay no heed
Chorus (Repeat)

Telegraph Road
Telegraph Road
Composer(s): Mark Knopfler
Performer(s): Dire Straits
A long time ago came a man on a track
walking thirty miles with a sack on his back
and he put down his load where he thought it was the best
he made a home in the wilderness
he built a cabin and a winter store
and he ploughed up the ground by the cold lake shore
and the other travellers came riding down the track
and they never went further and they never went back
then came the churches then came the schools
then came the lawyers then came the rules
then came the trains and the trucks with their loads
and the dirty old track was the telegraph road
Then came the mines - then came the ore
then there was the hard times then there was a war
telegraph sang a song about the world outside
telegraph road got so deep and so wide
like a rolling river...
And my radio says tonight it's gonna freeze
people driving home from the factories
there's six lanes of traffic
three lanes moving slow...
I used to like to go to work but they shut it down
I've got a right to go to work but there's no work here to be found
yes, and they say we're gonna have to pay what's owed
we're gonna have to reap from some seed that's been sowed
and the birds up on the wires and the telegraph poles
they can always fly away from this rain and this cold
you can hear them singing out their telegraph code
all the way down the telegraph road
You know I'd sooner forget but I remember those nights
when life was just a bet on a race between the lights
you had your hand on my shoulder you had your hand in my hair
now you act a little colder like you don't seem to care...
but believe in me baby and I'll take you away
from out of this darkness and into the day
from these rivers of headlights these rivers of rain
from the anger that lives on these streets with these names
'cos I've run every red light on memory lane
I've seen desperation explode into flames
and I don't wanna see it again...
From all of these signs saying sorry but we're closed
all the way down the telegraph road

My Hawaiian Rose
My Hawaiian Rose
Composer(s): Walter Bolian; James G. Henshel
On an island fair where the flowers rare
With their fragrance fills the balmy air
Where fair maidens are I hear the old guitar
Calling me back to this land a far
Where the palm trees sway and the lovers gay
sing love songs all the while
There my heart goes back to a rose
I left upon this flowered isle
Where the twilight fades
then the soft night shades
Make me long for the land of dark eyed maids
And there comes to me across the sea
Visions that gill me with ecstasy
And in restless dreams it always seems
I hear this rose implore
That I once more come to the shore
Where love and song lives ever more
Each gentle breeze brings me memories
Of my sweet Hawaiian Rose
And each flower fair I find blooming there
To me her charms disclose
But then I know that I will go
At winters close to seek repose
In the arms of my Hawaiian Rose

Goodbye So Soon
Goodbye So Soon
Composer(s): Henry Mancini
Performer(s): Vincent Price
Goodbye so soon
And isn't this a crime
We know by now that time knows how to fly
So here's goodbye so soon
You'll find your separate way
With time so short I'll say so long
And go
So soon
Goodbye
You followed me, I followed you
We were like each other's shadows for a while
Now as you see, this game is through
So although it hurts, I'll try to smile
As I say goodbye so soon
And isn't this a crime
We know by now that time knows how to fly
So here's goodbye so soon
You'll find your separate way
With time so short I'll say so long
And go
So soon
Goodbye

Télégramme
Télégramme
Composer(s): Michel Emer
Performer(s): Edith Piaf
C'est un télégramme pour Marie Belage
Dans la cour, escalier B, cinquième étage
Troisième porte à gauche, deux marches à descendre
Frapper fort pour qu'elle puisse vous entendre
Le p'tit facteur grimpe quatre à quatre
Un vieille demoiselle vient ouvrir
D'une voix dure et acariâtre
Elle dit "merci" puis se retire
Elle ouvre en tremblant la dépêche
En général, on n'aime pas ça
Elle lit tout haut, la gorge sèche
Puis elle relit dix fois tout bas
"Serai Orly - huit heures - deux mai -
Suis impatient - suis fou de joie -
Je vous adore plus que jamais -
Amour - baisers - signé - ...François..."
Elle retourne vingt ans en arrière
Comme ils s'aimaient, il y a vingt ans
Mais ses parents hélas, le refusèrent
Il n'avait pas un sou vaillant
"Je reviendrai fortune faite"
Lui a-t-il dit
"Je t'attendrai
Je veux aussi que tu promettes
Que tu ne m'oublieras jamais"
Il est parti - les mois, les années passent
Elle est toute seule devant la vie
Beauté, fraîcheur, jeunesse... tout s'efface
Et plus d'argent, donc plus d'amis...
Les voyageurs arrivant du Mexique
Ah le voilà! Comme il est grand!
Ses tempes grises lui donnent l'air poétique
Il est plus beau qu'il y a vingt ans
Elle est toute pâle et ses mains brûlent
Comme il bat fort son pauvre cœur
Il vient vers elle, il la bouscule
"J'vous demande pardon!... Dites-moi, porteur!
Je cherche une dame élégante et très belle
De grands yeux bleus, des cheveux blonds
Plutôt petite... Attendez! J'crois que c'est elle...
Ah! Non, ce n'est pas elle...
J'vous demande pardon!..."
Vous n'auriez pas vu une dame blonde -
Elégante - très belle -
Vous n'auriez pas vu une dame blonde -
Elégante - très belle -
Vous n'auriez pas vu...
