I Have Lived
I Have Lived
French & Italian Titles: J'ai Vécu; Ho Vissuto
Composer(s): Charles Aznavour; Hirshhorn
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
When I take a one-way ticket to the road of no return
on a journey every man must make some day
When it's time to meet the Father
and explains my sins away
I will tell him, yes I'll tell him I have lived
I have lived each single moment as a man of flesh and blood
with my soul and all my senses open wide
I have lived and tasted everything that called out to be tried
and afraid of either heaven or of hell
never caring if I had a soul to sell
I was no more optimistic than my fellow man would be
I have always been an artist, not a saint
Now the moonlights are dimming
no more costumes, no more paint
I admit that I was selfish, I have lived
I have lived a life of running, after joy and happiness
with a new dream always tearing at my heart
Oh my Lord, I should have thought of my salvation at the start
but on Earth so many mornings I was told
you would take a sinner back into the fall
If my reasons seem too fragile and my words have no effect
and forgiveness is the one thing I must win
I'll explain my live and show you all I am and all I've been
and I'll say for my defence that I have lived
I have lived with soul on fire, with desire in my skin
in the name of all the women I have known
I have worshipped every shrine of love and if I must at all
I'll be ready then to kneel and pay the price
for the yesterdays I spent in Paradise
I have lived my life

Josie (Steely Dan)
Josie
Composer(s): Walter Becker; Donald Fagen
Performer(s): Steely Dan
We're gonna break out the hats and hooters
When Josie comes home
We're gonna rev up the motor scooters
When Josie comes home to stay
We're gonna park in the street
Sleep on the beach and make it
Throw down the jam till the girls say when
Lay down the law and break it
When Josie comes home
When Josie comes home
So good
She's the pride of the neighborhood
She's the raw flame
The live wire
She prays like a Roman
With her eyes on fire
Jo would you love to scrapple
She'll never say no
Shine up the battle apple
We'll shake 'em all down tonight
We're gonna mix in the street
Strike at the stroke of midnight
Dance on the bones till the girls say when
Pick up what's left by daylight
When Josie comes home
When Josie comes home
So bad
She's the best friend we ever had
She's the raw flame
The live wire
She prays like a Roman
With her eyes on fire
When Josie comes home
So good
She's the pride of the neighborhood
She's the raw flame
The live wire
She prays like a Roman
With her eyes on fire

I Have Found The Lord
French Title: J'ai Trouvé Le Seigneur
Performer(s): Jeanine Deckers (aka The Singing Nun)
I found the Lord on the shore
I found the Lord in the pearly shells
Little boat on the waters
Sail away, sail away
Little boat on the waters
Take my soul to the sky
I found the Lord in the breeze
I found the Lord
In the misty wind
Little boat on the waters
Sail away, sail away
Little boat on the waters
Take my soul to the sky
I found the Lord in the sand
I found the Lord
in the dreamy swells
Little boat on the waters
Sail away, sail away
Little boat on the waters
Take my soul to the sky
I found the Lord in the mist
I found the Lord
In the sunset on the dunes

Josie (Peter Maffay)
Josie
Performer(s): Peter Maffay
Wenn and're froh sind
ist sie traurig
und ihre Freundin ist die Nacht
und sie träumt oft tagelang mit dem Wind
wenn er von Süden kommt
und Sehnsucht klingt in der Stimme
wenn sie lacht.
Sie hat ein Kleid aus Sonnenschein
und traut sich nicht
es anzuzieh'n
und nur heimlich
wenn es keiner merkt
sieht man sie darin spazierengehn
und etwas in ihr will fast zerspringen
Josie
Josie
es ist soweit
Vergiß die Mädchenträume und halte dich bereit
Der Tag geht abends schlafen und wacht als Morgen auf
Doch aus dem Kind von gestern wird nur langsam eine Frau
Mit jedem Blick in ihren Spiegel
sehn sie zwei Augen fragend an
und ihr Freund
der Wind
ist plötzlich stumm
und kein Traum will mehr wie früher sein
und in der Nacht fühlt sie sich so allein
Mit jedem Tag spürt sie es mehr
und weiß doch nicht
woran sie ist
denn es ist niemand da
der ihr hilft
sich selber zu verstehen
und etwas in ihr will zerspringen
Josie
Josie
es ist soweit
Vergiß die Mädchenträume und halte dich bereit
Der Tag geht abends schlafen und wacht als Morgen auf
Doch aus dem Kind von gestern wird nur langsam eine Frau

Tonight My Heart She Is Crying
Tonight My Heart She Is Crying
Composer(s): Abrams - Moisbe - Reid
Performer(s): Shirley Bassey
(Love is the bird that spreads the wings and flies away)
(Love is the bird that spreads the wings and flies away)
Tonight my heart she is crying
Tonight my heart she is sad
Tonight the wind she is sighing
For the love that I had
The Moon is there in the sky above
But not the way it was before
My baby's eyes, filled with shining love
Do not see me anymore (Not see her anymore)
(Love is the bird that spreads the wings and flies away)
(Love is the bird that spreads the wings and flies away)
My baby's heart is like the diamond stone
So very beautiful, but cold
My baby's heart is like the diamond stone
So very beautiful, but cold
Tonight my heart she is crying
There is no happiness for me
Tonight my dream she is dying
Like the ripple on the sea
I make the future, I make the plan
The plan she do not turn out right
My baby leave me for another woman
And my heart she cries tonight (Her heart she cries tonight)
Love is the bird that spreads the wings and flies away
Love is the bird that spreads the wings and flies away
Love is the bird that spreads the wings and flies away

I Have Found My Love In You
I Have Found My Love In You
Composer(s): Gary Moore
Performer(s): Gary Moore
I can still remember
like it was yesterday
the pain inside my heart
as you turned to walk away
I don't know and I don't care
what the people say
I don't know and I don't care
I love you anyway
For I have found my love in you
And I have found a love so true
I can still remember
like it was just the other day
I could have done without those stories
while you're so far away
I don't know, I don't care
what my friends all say
I don't know and I don't care
I love you anyway
For I have found my love in you
And I have found a love so true
Ooh, that first sweet night together
I will remember it forever
I put my heart on the line
Though I knew I was wrong
I would keep holding on
Do you still remember
all those times ago?
When you lay like a flame in my arms
and I could never let you go
For I have found my love in you
And I have found a love so true
Yes, I have found my love in you
And I have found a love so true
I don't know and I don't care
Ooh, that first sweet night together
I don't know, I don't care
I will remember it forever

Joshua Giraffe
Joshua Giraffe
Performer(s): Raffi
Joshua Giraffe was born in a zoo
He lived there too
For two years and a half
He hasn't had a bath
My mommy doesn't lick me
Even when I'm sticky from
Candy floss, candy apples, popcorn
Soft drinks, jelly beans and gumdrops
And there must be something better
Than living in this cage
But I'm really not too sure
Because I'm really short of age
Joshua Giraffe was feeling kind of sad
Things were going bad
How little of life he had
Wasting away with no room to play
Trapped in a zoo with buffalo too
So he went next door to the elephant
And asked him what to do
I'm wasting away with no room to play
I'm trapped in a zoom with buffalo too
The elephant was very old and gray
And he had a huge balloon bottom
He said
Never fear Joshua
A vision will appear
That night a dream came to Joshua
And Joshua saw animals like crazy monkeys
And a whole pile of Hippypotostropasuses
And flitty moths
Moths size 12
And sleazy lizards
And a tribe of nasty saviars
But Joshua wasn't afraid
Because he sang himself this song
Nothing can go wrong-o
I'm in the Kongo
Nothing can go wrong-o
I'm in the Kongo
Nothing can go wrong-o
I'm in the Kongo
Nothing can go wrong-o
I'm in the Kongo
Nothing can go wrong-o
I'm in the Kongo
Nothing can go wrong-o
I'm in the Kongo
Even in his dream he knew
He'd never get away
Not even for a day
Then a peanut hit him on the nose
Joshua Giraffe was back in the zoo
What could he do
Awakened from his dream
He'd never be the same
Because of what he'd seen
He'd seen
Alligators, crocodiles, tree sloth
Anacondas, cobras
And large winged moths
Orangatangs, baboons eating grapes
Gibbons, rude mandrills and just plain apes
But Joshua was lucky
He had some special friends
And that day they went to the zoo
But he was up tight so they waited till the night
And they chopped his cage in two
He discovered he could fly and
He soared into the sky with them
Wrapped around his neck
And they haven't come back yet
So if you see them get a net
That's right, they haven't come back yet
But when they do, they say they are
Going to free all the animals from their cages
No matter how new or modern
Even some pets too
So if on your way home today
You happen to find....
A baboon basking in the balcony
Or a lion licking a lemon in the lobby
Or a python perched in the pantry
A wildebeest in the W.C.
With a turtle twirling in your tub
Don't be afraid
Just say you're a friend of their friend
Joshua Giraffe, Joshua, Joshua
Joshua Giraffe, Joshua, Joshua
(woo hoo)
Repeat (9x)

Tonight My Baby's Coming Home
Composer(s): Billy Sherrill - Glenn Sutton
Performer(s): Barbara Mandrell
and multiple other artists
Last night he called from Dallas
He was havin' a beer at the Crystal Palace
He said honey you won't be alone for long
I got to make just one more stop
To pick up a ring in Little Rock
And I'm a gonna head this semi straight for home
Fourteen wheels a whinin'
Four big headlights shinin'
Him and that semi been away too long
Hope he don't get stop from speedin'
'Cause I've got everything he's needin'
Waitin' for him right here at home
He's got that big ole engine singin'
Singin' my favorite song
And I know he's headin' my way
Rollin' down the highway
Tonight my baby's comin' home
For ten thousand miles I've missed him
It's been a week since I kissed him
And forty truckstops since I held him tight
A million chicks and he can get 'em
They wanna make love and he won't let 'em
The only thing he wants he'll get tonight
He's got that big ole engine singin'
I know he's headin' my way
Rollin' down the highway
Tonight my baby's comin' home
I know he's headin' my way...
I know he's headin' my way...

I Have Eyes
I Have Eyes
Composer(s): Leo Robin; Ralph Rainger
Performer(s): Bing Crosby
and multiple other artists
I have eyes to see with
But they see only you
For you have eyes
That put the very stars to shame
I have lips to sigh with
What else am I to do
When you have lips
That fill my very soul with flame
Tonight you’re near to me
In a light bright as day
But you’re so dear to me
I could see you even miles away
I have eyes to see with
And yet when we’re apart
I close my eyes
And see with my heart
Tonight you’re near to me
In a light bright as day
But you’re so dear to me
I could see you even miles away
I have eyes to see with
And yet when we’re apart
I close my eyes
And see with my heart

Josephine, For Better Or For Worse
Josephine, For Better Or For Worse
Composer(s): Dave Cousins
Performer(s): The Strawbs; Dave Cousins
The years have left their mark
And time must be to blame
To me you're still the same
Josephine, for better or for worse
I thought that I would stay
Always young and free
But now you're part of me
Josephine, for better or for worse
For richer, for poorer
To honour and obey
For better or for worse
You're still the same today ... Josephine
Sometimes our way of life
Has gone against the grain
Yet somehow you remain
Josephine, for better or for worse

I have dreamed that your arms are lovely
And I have dreamed what a joy you'll be
I have dreamed ev'ry word you'll whisper

I have dreamed and enjoyed the view
In these dreams I've loved you so
That by now I think I know
What it's like to be loved by you
I will love being loved by you
In these dreams I've loved you so
That by now I think I know
What it's like to be loved by you
I will love being loved by you

Joseph! Joseph!
Joseph! Joseph!
Composer(s): Sammy Cahn; Nellie Casman;
Saul Chaplin; Samuel Steinberg
Performer(s): The Andrews Sisters;
and various other artists
A certain maid I know, is so afraid her boy
Will never ask her, will she name the day
He calls on her each night, and when she dims the light
It's ten to one that you would hear her say
Oh Joseph, Joseph, won't you make your mind up
It's time I knew just how I stand with you
My heart's no clock that I can stop and wind up
Each time we make up after being through
So listen Joseph, Joseph time is fleeting
And here and there my hair is turning grey
My mother has a fear, wedding bells I'll never hear
Joseph, Joseph, won't you name the day
Oh Joseph, won't you name the day
Oh Joseph, won't you name the day
Oh Joseph, won't you name the day
Name the day, name the day
Oh Joseph, make your mind up
It's time I knew just how I stand with you
My heart's no clock that I can wind up
Oh Joseph, each time we make up after being through
Oh Joseph, Joseph, Joseph, time is fleeting
And here and there my hair is turning grey
My mama has a fear, wedding bells I'll never hear
Oh Joseph, Joseph, Joseph, won't you name the day

And if you never see my face again
think of me as a permanent friend
the one who loved you like a hurricane
then disappeared

just do anything
anything your heart desires, babe

I Have Come To Say Goodbye
I Have Come To Say Goodbye
Composer(s): Andrew Carp
I have come to say good bye, Mary, darling
For America, I sure must do my part
Now be brave and do not cry, Mary, darling
Though this parting almost breaks your heart
I know you will be lonely, Mary darling
I know that you will never cease to care
My thoughts will ever be of you, dear
When I'm in the trenches over there
'T Is for freedoms cause, this strife, Mary, darling
For our liberty, On land and on the sea
I would gladly give my life, Mary, darling
Fighting for the world's democracy
With conscience right I'm ready, Mary darling
When duty calls a soldier must obey
And if I am spared I'll return, dear
Back to the good old U.S.A.
At evening I'll lie a-dreaming
Dreaming of thee
When o'er the sea
In fancy I'll see you waiting
Waiting at home, sweet home for me

Joseph
Joseph
Composer(s): Georges Moustaki
Performer(s): Georges Moustaki; Mélanie E
Voilà c'que c'est, mon vieux Joseph
Que d'avoir pris
La plus jolie
Parmi les filles de Galilée
Celle qu'on appelait Marie
Tu aurais pu, mon vieux Joseph
Prendre Sarah
Ou Deborah
Et rien ne serait arrivé
Mais tu as preféré Marie
Tu aurais pu, mon vieux Joseph
Rester chez toi
Tailler ton bois
Plutôt que d'aller t'exiler
Et te cacher avec Marie
Tu aurais pu, mon vieux Joseph
Faire des petits
Avec Marie
Et leur apprendre ton métier
Comme ton père te l'avait appris
Pourquoi a-t-il fallu, Joseph
Que ton enfant
Cet innocent
Ait eu ces étranges idées
Qui ont tant fait pleurer Marie
Parfois je pense à toi, Joseph
Mon pauvre ami
Lorsque l'on rit
De toi qui n'avais demandé
Qu'à vivre heureux avec Marie

Composer(s): Benny Andersson - Bjorn Ulvaeus
First release by: ABBA - 1979
Covered by multiple other artists
I have a dream, a song to sing
To help me cope with anything
If you see the wonder of a fairy tale
You can take the future even if you fail
I believe in angels
Something good in everything I see
I believe in angels
When I know the time is right for me
I'll cross the stream - I have a dream
I have a dream, a fantasy
To help me through reality
And my destination makes it worth the while
Pushing through the darkness still another mile
I believe in angels
Something good in everything I see
I believe in angels
When I know the time is right for me
I'll cross the stream - I have a dream
I'll cross the stream - I have a dream
I have a dream, a song to sing
To help me cope with anything
If you see the wonder of a fairy tale
You can take the future even if you fail
I believe in angels
Something good in everything I see
I believe in angels
When I know the time is right for me
I'll cross the stream - I have a dream
I'll cross the stream - I have a dream
