I Don't Believe In Miracles
I Don't Believe In Miracles
Composer(s): Russ Ballard
Performer(s): Colin Blunstone
and multiple other artists
I walk along the road and past your door
Then I remember things you said
I know in time we could've been so much more
But if you wanna come back home, go right ahead
But I don't believe in miracles
I don't believe in miracles
But I thought you might show your face
Or have the grace to tell me where you are
I believe I was your game, your ball (your ball)
If you tossed me up then I would fall
And so you've won again, ah, you win them all
But I believe I'd run to you, if you should call
But I don't believe in miracles (don't believe in miracles)
I don't believe in miracles (don't believe in miracles)
But I thought you might show your face
Or have the grace to tell me where you are (tell me where you are)
I believe that somewhere there's someone
Who's gonna light the way when things go wrong
The bullet that shot me down came from your gun
The words that turned me round were from your song
But I don't believe in miracles (don't believe in miracles)
I don't believe in miracles (don't believe in miracles)
But I thought you might show your face
Or have the grace to tell me where you are (tell me where you are)
But I don't believe in miracles (don't believe in miracles)
I don't believe in miracles (don't believe in miracles)
But I thought you might show your face
Or have the grace to tell me where you are

Jeepers Creepers
Jeepers Creepers
Composer(s): Johnny Mercer; Harry Warren
Performer(s): Tony Bennett & Count Basie;
and various other artists
I don't care what the weatherman says
When the weatherman says it's raining
You'll never hear me complaining
I'm certain the sun will shine
I don't care how the weather vane points
When the weather vane points to gloomy
It's gotta be sunny to me
When your eyes look into mine
Jeepers creepers, where'd ya get those peepers?
Jeepers creepers, where'd ya get those eyes?
Gosh all, git up, how'd they get so lit up?
Gosh all, git up, how'd they get that size?
Golly gee, when you turn those heaters on
Woe is me, got to put my cheaters on
Jeepers creepers, where'd ya get those peepers?
Oh, those weepers, how they hypnotize!
Where'd ya get those eyes?

Teardrops (Larry Williams)
Teardrops
Composer(s): Sonny Bono - Larry Williams
Performer(s): Larry Williams
You left, left me to cry
At a table that was set for two
But the most I can offer
A tear drop for you
Tear drop for you (Teardrop for you)
The pain deep inside
Uummm, I know it won't show through
But the most I can offer
Is a tear drop, tear drop
A tear drop for you
I'd show the world (I'd show the world)
Woooh, my emotions (My emotions)
Yes, but what (Yes, but what)
What good would it be (What good would it be)
I'd tell the world (I'd tell the world)
Of my devotion (Of my devotion)
Yet, could it bring (Duh-duh) you back (Duh-duh)
To me (Duh-duh-duh-duh-duh-duh-duh)
I swallowed, swallowed my pride
For your love I could never hide
Little girl, little girl, the most I could offer
Is a tear drop
(Tear drop for you)

I Don't Believe In If Anymore
I Don't Believe In If Anymore
Composer(s): Roger Whittaker
Performer(s): Roger Whittaker
Now if you load your rifle right
And if you fix your bayonet so
And if you kill that man, my friend
The one we call the foe
And if you do it often, lad
And if you do it righ
You'll be a hero overnight
You'll save your country from her plight
Remember God is always right
If you survive to see the sight
A friend now greeting foe...
No you won't believe in If anymore
If's an illusion
If's an illusion
No you won't believe in If anymore
If is for children
If is for children
Building daydreams
If I knew then what I know now
(I thought I did you know somehow)
If I could have the time again
I'd take the sunshine leave the rain
If only time would trickle slow
Like rain that melts the fallen snow
If only Lord if only
If only Lord if only
Oh I don't believe in If anymore
If's an illusion
If's an illusion
No I don't believe in If anymore
If is for children
If is for children
Building daydreams
No I don't believe in If anymore
If's an illusion
If's an illusion
No I don't believe in If anymore
If is for children
If is for children
Building daydreams

J'Écoute De La Musique Saoûle
J'Écoute De La Musique Saoûle
Composer(s): Michel Jonasz; Gabriel Yared
Performer(s): Françoise Hardy
j'écoute de la musique saoûle
à rouler par terre
dans un night-club ou déboule
un funky d'enfer
toute seule
si quelqu'un me l'a volé
toute seule
que les sorties soient fermées
toute seule
toute seule il m'a laissée toute seule
houlà houlà sacré houle
on voit plus la terre
cool musique bateau qui coule
sous les lazers
toute seule
Donna Summer moi aussi
toute seule
Marvin Gaye j'suis triste ici
toute seule
toute seule il m'a laissée toute seule
toute seule il m'a laissée toute seule
les scarabées d'or attaquent
tutti frutti en sol
faut qu'j'me trouve un homme un crac
chinois mongol
prince du pétrole
le roi du bonbon menthol
j'écoute de la musique saoûle
à rouler par terre
dans un night-club ou déboule
un funky d'enfer
toute seule
si quelqu'un me l'a volé
toute seule
que les sorties soient fermées
toute seule
toute seule il m'a laissée toute seule
toute seule
arrêtez-vous de danser
toute seule
j'ai perdu mon fiancé
toute seule
toute seule il m'a laissée toute seule

To Keep My Love Alive
To Keep My Love Alive
Composer(s): Lorenz Hart - Richard Rodgers
First performance: Vivienne Segal - 1943
I've been married, and married, and often I've sighed
"I'm never a bridesmaid, I'm always a bride"
I never divorced them, I hadn't the heart
Yet remember these sweet words, "`till death do us part"
I married many men, a ton of them
Because I was untrue to none of them
Because I bumped off every one of them
To keep my love alive
Sir Paul was frail, he looked a wreck to me
At night he was a horse's neck to me
So I performed an appendectomy
To keep my love alive
Sir Thomas had insomnia, he couldn't sleep at night
I bought a little arsenic, he's sleeping now all right
Sir Philip played the harp, I cussed the thing
I crowned him with his harp to bust the thing
And now he plays where harps are just the thing
To keep my love alive
To keep my love alive
I thought Sir George had possibilities
But his flirtations made me ill at ease
And when I'm ill at ease, I kill at ease
To keep my love alive
Sir Charles came from a sanitorium
And yelled for drinks in my emporium
I mixed one drink, he's in memorium
To keep my love alive
Sir Francis was a singing bird, a nightingale, that's why
I tossed him off my balcony, to see if he, could fly
Sir Atherton indulged in fratricide
He killed his dad and that was patricide
One night I stabbed him by my mattress-side
To keep my love alive
To keep my love alive
To keep my love alive

I Do, I Do, I Do
I Do, I Do, I Do
Performer(s): Joe Loss & His Orch.
Him:
Do I like it, kissing you
You know I do I do I do I do I do
Do I miss it all day through
You know I do I do I do I do I do
I’ve told you once, I’ve told you twice
I’ll shout it to the skies
There’s no telling what I’ll do
To make you realise
That I love you, yes I do
You know I do I do I do I do I do
Her:
Do I like it, kissing you
You know I do I do I do I do I do
Him:
You do?
Her:
Do I miss it all day through
You know I do I do I do I do I do
Him:
Oh Honey
Her:
I’ve told you once, I’ve told you twice
I’ll shout it to the skies
There’s no telling what I’ll do
To make you realise
That I love you
Him:
You do?
Her:
Yes I do
You know I do I do I do I do I do
Him:
I’ve told you once, I’ve told you twice
I’ll shout it to the skies
There’s no telling what I’ll do
To make you realise
That I love you
Her:
Love me?
Him:
Yes I do
Her:
Hmm
Him:
You know I do I do I do I do I do
Her:
And to prove it what’ll you do?
Him:
I’ll tell the preacher on the day I marry you
Both:
I do I do I do I do I do I do

J'Écoute Chanter La Brise
J'Écoute Chanter La Brise
(Portuguese Version: Sempre Que Lisboa Canta)
Composer(s): Carlos Rocha; Anibal Nazaré
Performer(s): Dalida
J'écoute chanter la brise et j'imagine quelques paroles
Que j'aimerai que tu dises lorsque ton rêve vers moi s'envole
J'entends le bruit de la vague comme un cœur battre sur le rivage
Il dit au long des semaines qu'il revienne, qu'il revienne
J'habite sur la falaise ma maison regarde l'eau
Au loin la mer est jalouse car j'attends un matelot
Garce à ses humbles prières la Madone est avec moi
Et je serais la première à voir venir son trois-mâts
J'écoute chanter la brise et j'imagine quelques paroles
Que j'aimerai que tu dises lorsque ton rêve vers moi s'envole
J'entends le bruit de la vague comme un cœur battre sur le rivage
Il dit au long des semaines qu'il revienne, qu'il revienne
Les jours sont tous des dimanches lorsque les bateaux sont là
Devant chaque maison blanche un grand fil séchera
On danse le long des plages on a plus qu'une pensée
Mais que c'est triste un village quand sont loin les fiancés
J'écoute chanter la brise elle murmure tant de merveilles
Que tu le lui as apprise pour ne les dire qu'à mon oreille
J'écoute le vent d'Espagne le vent qui saute de la montagne
Pour chanter le long des vignes reviens vite, reviens vite
Reviens

I Do, Do You?
I Do, Do You?
Composer(s): Lou Quadling
Performer(s): Dinah Shore
I do, do you?
Do you believe in love?
I never did before, but now I do
Whenever you're near me
I thrill with happiness
And if that isn't love I miss my guess
Oh yes, I do, do you?
Do you believe it's love?
What else could bring an angel down to earth?
When you're in my arms
I weaken with each caress
Oh yes, I do, do you?
Whenever you're near me
I thrill with happiness
And if that isn't love I miss my guess
Oh yes, I do, do you?
Do you believe it's love?
What else could bring an angel down to earth?
When you're in my arms
I weaken with each caress
Oh yes, I do, do you?

Jeanie With The Light Brown Hair
Jeanie With The Light Brown Hair
(aka I Dream Of Jeannie With The Light Brown Hair)
Composer(s): Stephen Foster
Performer(s): Glenn Miller
and multiple other artists
I dream of Jeannie with the light brown hair
Borne, like a vapor, on the summer air
I see her tripping where the bright streams play
Happy as the daisies that dance on her way
Many were the wild notes her merry voice would pour
Many were the blithe birds that warbled them o'er
Oh! I dream of Jeannie with the light brown hair
Floating, like a vapor, on the soft, summer air
I long for Jeannie with the day dawn smile
Radiant in gladness, warm with winning guile
I hear her melodies, like joys gone by
Sighing round my heart o'er the fond hopes that die
Sighing like the night wind and sobbing like the rain
Wailing for the lost one that comes not again
Oh! I long for Jeannie, and my heart bows low
Never more to find her where the bright waters flow
I sigh for Jeannie, but her light form strayed
Far from the fond hearts round her native glade
Her smiles have vanished and her sweet songs flown
Flitting like the dreams that have cheered us and gone
Now the nodding wild flow'rs may wither on the shore
While her gentle fingers will cull them no more
Oh! I sigh for Jeannie with the light brown hair
Floating like a vapor, on the soft summer air

I Do Not Know A Day I Did Not Love You
I Do Not Know A Day I Did Not Love You
Composer(s): Martin Charnin; Richard Rodgers
Performer(s): Tony Bennett; Michael Jovovich
I do not know a day I did not love you
I can't remember love not being there
The planting when the earth ran through your fingers
The harvest when the sun danced in your hair
I do not know a day I did not need you
For sharing every moment that I spent
I needed you before I ever knew you
Before I knew what needing someone meant
And if we ever were to have tomorrow
One fact alone is full and filled with song
You will not know a day I do not love you
The way that I have loved you all our lives

Jeannie
Jeannie
Composer(s): Buddy Kaye; Hugo Montenegro
Performer(s): Hugo Montenegro; Flip Phillips
Jeannie, fresh as a daisy
Just love how she obeys me
Does things that just amaze me so
She smiles, Presto the rain goes
She blinks, up come the rainbows
Cars stop, even the train goes slow
When she goes by she paints sunshine on every rafter
Sprinkles the air with laughter
We're close as a quarter after three
There's no one like Jeannie
I'll introduce her
To you, but it's no use, sir
'Cause my Jeannie's in love with me

Performer(s): Georges Brassens
La petite presqu'île
Où jadis, bien tranquille
Moi je suis né natif
Soit dit sans couillonnade
Avait le nom d'un ad-
jectif démonstratif
Moi, personnellement
Que je meur' si je mens
Ça m'était bien égal
J'étais pas chatouillé
J'étais pas humilié
Dans mon honneur local
Mais voyant d' l'infamie
Dans cette homonymie
Des bougres s'en sont plaints
Tellement que bientôt
On a changé l'ortho-
graph' du nom du pat'lin
Et j'eus ma première tristesse d'Olympio
Déférence gardée envers le père Hugo
Si faire se peut
Attendez un peu
Messieurs les édiles
Que l'on soit passé
Pour débaptiser
Nos petites villes
La chère vieille rue
Où mon père avait cru
On ne peut plus propice
D'aller construire sa
Petite maison s'a-
ppelait rue de l'Hospice
Se mettre en quête d'un
Nom d' rue plus opportun
Ne se concevait pas
On n' pouvait trouver mieux
Vu qu'un asile de vieux
Florissait dans le bas
Les anciens combattants
Tous comme un seul, sortant
De leurs vieux trous d'obus
Firent tant qu'à la fin
La rue d' l'Hospic' devint
La rue Henri Barbusse
Et j'eus ma deuxième tristesse d'Olympio
Déférence gardée envers le père Hugo
Si faire se peut
Attendez un peu
Héros incongrus
Que l'on soit passé
Pour débaptiser
Nos petites rues
Moi, la première à qui
Mon cœur fut tout acquis
S'app'lait Jeanne Martin
Patronyme qui fait
Pas tellement d'effet
Dans le bottin mondain
Mais moi j'aimais comme un
Fou ce nom si commun
N'en déplaise aux minus
D'ailleurs, de parti pris
Celle que je chéris
S'appell' toujours Vénus
Hélas un béotien
A la place du sien
Lui proposa son blase
Fameux dans l'épicerie
Et cette renchérie
Refusa pas, hélas!
Et j'eus ma troisième tristesse d'Olympio
Déférence gardée envers le père Hugo
Si faire se peut
Attendez un peu
Cinq minutes, non?
Gentes fiancées
Que l'on soit passé
Pour changer de nom

Stop Leading Me On
Stop Leading Me On
Composer(s): Parker - Wright
Performer(s): The Precisions
You're leading me on
Oh, why must this be
You're leading me on
Don't play with my heart this way
If you don't love me, then tell me so
And stop leading me on, and let me go, oh-oh-ooh
All my dreams are not the same
You're leading me on
It fills my heart with pain
If you don't love me, then tell me so
And this leading me on will be no more
I thought my love meant something to you (doo-be-doo-be-doo)
And that our love was pure and true (aah-aah-aah-aah-aah)
I made a foolish mistake
And I was falling so deeply over you
So, look in my eyes and tell me (I love you so)
This is something I must know (I must know)
If you don't love me anymore
Stop leading me on and let me go, woh-oh-oh
And let me go
(Stop leading me on)

Límites
Composer(s): Pablo Guerrero - Pedro Navarrete
Performer(s): Luz Casal
En la ciudad
el pulso de la soledad
Detrás de tí
la noche larga de abril
Puedes tocar
cometas en la oscuridad
Alrededor
siempre es presente en el reloj
Amanecer
tu luz al nacer
Allá en el sur
el cielo añade laminas de azul
Y ésta claridad
te hace pensar
que no tiene límites tu cuerpo
ni orillas el mar
Todo está aquí
con ritmo y Música feliz
Aquí la unión
de lo creado con la creación
Sombras se van
sentidos a la libertad
Fuego y metal
aire que gira sobre el mar
Amanecer
tu luz al nacer
Allá en le sur
el cielo añade láminas de luz
Y esta claridad
te hace pensar
que no tiene límites tu cuerpo
ni orillas el mar

Jeanne
Jeanne
Composer(s): Georges Brassens
Performer(s): Georges Brassens; Renaud
Chez Jeanne, la Jeanne
Son auberge est ouverte aux gens sans feu ni lieu
On pourrait l'appeler l'auberge de Bon Dieu
S'il n'en existait déjà une
La dernière où l'on peut entrer
Sans frapper, sans montrer patte blanche
Chez Jeanne, la Jeanne
On est n'importe qui, on vient n'importe quand
Et, comme par miracle, par enchantement
On fait partie de la famille
Dans son cœur, en s'poussant un peu
Reste encore une petite place
La Jeanne, la Jeanne
Elle est pauvre et sa table est souvent mal servie
Mais le peu qu'on y trouve assouvit pour la vie
Par la façon qu'elle le donne
Son pain ressemble à du gâteau
Et son eau à du vin comme deux gouttes d'eau
La Jeanne, la Jeanne
On la paie quand on peut des prix mirobolants
Un baiser sur son front ou sur ses cheveux blancs
Un semblant d'accord de guitare
L'adresse d'un chat échaudé
Ou d'un chien tout crotté comm' pourboire
La Jeanne, la Jeanne
Dans ses ros's et ses choux n'a pas trouvé d'enfant
Qu'on aime et qu'on défend contre les quatre vents
Et qu'on accroche à son corsage
Et qu'on arrose avec son lait
D'autres qu'elle en seraient tout's chagrines
Mais Jeanne, la Jeanne
Ne s'en soucie pas plus que de colin-tampon
Etre mère de trois poulpiquets, à quoi bon
Quand elle est mère universelle
Quand tous les enfants de la terre
De la mer et du ciel sont à elle
