I Know Him So Well
I Know Him So Well
Composer(s): Benny Andersson; Tim Rice; Bjorn Ulvaeus
First release by: Elaine Paige & Barbara Dickson - 1984
Covered by multiple other artists
Nothing is so good it lasts eternally
Perfect situations must go wrong
But this has never yet prevented me
From wanting far too much for far too long
Looking back, I could have done it differently
Won a few more moments, who can tell?
But it took time to understand the man
Now at least I know, I know him well
Wasn't it good, Wasn't it fine
Isn't it madness he can't be mine
But in the end, he needs a little more than before
Security, he needs his fantasy and freedom
I know him so well
No one in your life is with you constantly
No one is completely on your side
And though I move my world to be with him
Still the gap between us is too wide
Looking back, I could have played it differently
Learned about the man before I fell
But I was ever so much younger then
Wasn't it good (oh so good), Wasn't it fine (so fine)
Isn't it madness he can't be mine
Didn't I know how it would go
If I knew from the start
Why am I falling apart
Wasn't it fine
Isn't it madness he can't be mine
But in the end, he needs a little more than before
Security, he needs his fantasy and freedom
I know him so well
It took some to understand him
Ooo ooh I know him so well

Too Young
Too Young
((Dutch Version: Te Jong (Bart Ekkers))
Composer(s): Sylvia Dee - Sid Lippman
First release: Nat King Cole - 1951
Covered by multiple other artists
They try to tell us we're too young
Too young to really be in love
They say that love's a word
A word we've only heard
But can't begin to know the meaning of
And yet we're not too young to know
This love will last though years may go
And then some day they may recall
We were not too young at all
And yet we're not too young to know
This love will last though years may go
And then some day they may recall
We were not too young at all

I Know A Story
Composer(s): Country Washburne; Ted Weems
Performer(s): Spike Jones
I know a story, of love undying
It is a story of my love for you
A tragic story of how I'm tryin'
To make you love me just as I love you
At night I lie awake and try to make my heart behave
But I can't forget that since we met I've been your slave
I know a story of love undying
It is a story of my love for you

Jumbo
Jumbo
Composer(s): Nicolas Peyrac
Performer(s): Nicolas Peyrac
Il y a du brouillard sur Paris
Je n'atteindrai jamais Orly
Et dire que les cons devant
Roulent en prenant tout leur temps
Le patron a dû rentrer
Il m'aura fait demander
Mais y'en a marre de ramper
De dire amen toute la journée
Tout en risquant de se faire sacquer
Pour qui, pour quoi
Pour un peu plus de cent mille anciens francs par mois
Je monterai dans le Jumbo
M'allongerai près du hublot
L'hôtesse me dira bonjour
Avec des yeux brûlants d'amour
Et puis je m'envolerai
Adieu la France à jamais
Je referai l'Eldorado avec le soleil sur la peau
Un coin de terre à Mexico, plus de métro
Rien que moi, la valise et l'argent du gros lot
Et dire que ça fait 20 ans
Que je compte tout cet argent
Et dire que pendant 20 ans
Je voyais les billets gagnants
Rapporter 200 millions
À tous les clampins Dupont
Et dire que pendant 20 ans
Je n'ai pas eu un billet gagnant
La modique somme de 3 francs foutait le camp
Chaque semaine 52 fois par an
Je vois les pistes d'Orly
Mon Dieu faites donc qu'ils m'oublient
Les flics de l'aéroport
N'ont pas l'air de savoir encore
Que la loterie c'est moi,
Que je ne reviendrai pas
Ils tamponnent mon passeport
Dans 10 minutes je serai à bord
Reste la fouille et j'aurai le corps un peu plus froid
Pour l'instant mon coeur ne sait plus comment il bat
Il y a du brouillard sur Orly
Je vois les lumières de Paris
Blotti contre le hublot
Je m'endors jusqu'à Mexico

German Version: Come On My Boy
Composer(s): Tony Hatch
First release by: Petula Clark - 1965
Covered by multiple other artists
Every day when the work is behind you
And the shop and the store
Put the lock on the door
Just get away
Where your worries won't find you
If you like, well I'll tell you more
Don't let the day get the better of you
When the evening comes
There's so much to do
You better put on your best
And wear a smile
Just come along with me awhile
'Cause I tell you
I know a place
Where the music is fine
And the lights are always low
I know a place where we can go
At the door there's a man who will greet you
Then you go downstairs
To some tables and chairs
Soon I'm sure you'll be tappin' your feet
Because the beat is the greatest there
All around there are girls and boys
It's a swingin' place
A cellar full of noise
It's got an atmosphere
Of its own somehow
You gotta come along right now
'Cause I tell you
I know a place
Where the music is fine
And the lights are always low
I know a place where we can go
Well, all around there are girls and boys
It's a swingin' place
A cellar full of noise
It's got an atmosphere
Of its own somehow
You gotta come along right now
'Cause I tell you
I know a place
Where the music is fine
And the lights are always low
I know a place where we can go
I know a place where we can go
I know a place where the lights are low
You're gonna love this place I know
I know a place where we can go

Too Soon to Tell
Too Soon to Tell
Performer(s): Bonnie Raitt
So now there's somebody new
These dreams I've been dreaming
Have all fallen through
You say I'll be fine
It only takes time
Someday
That may be true
But it's too soon to tell
Ah, it's too soon to say
Maybe some day I'll be able
To wish you well
But right now it's just
Too soon to tell
It's all for the best
So you say
You never intended
To hurt me this way
You want to hear
I won't drown in my tears
Well, baby the best that I can say
Is it's too soon to tell
Ah, it's too soon to say
Maybe some day I'll be able
To wish you well
But right now
It's just too soon to tell
Well right now
It's just too soon to tell
Ooh...
Too soon to tell.....

I Know A Heartache When I See One
I Know A Heartache When I See One
Composer(s): Charlie Black; Rory Michael Bourke; Kerry Chater
Performer(s): Jennifer Warnes
and multiple other artists
Look at who the wind's
Blowin’ up the road
Shining like a northern star
Actin’ like the answers
To all my prayers
But, baby, I know what you really are
So don’t you knock on my door
I won’t be home anymore
You can find me out walking in the sun
Oh, you hide it so well
It isn’t easy to tell
But I know a heartache
When I see one
There was a time
I was a true believer
Your love was the only way
Well you can save all your sweet talkin’
For some other fool
Only a fool would believe what you say
So don’t you knock on my door
I won’t be home anymore
You can find me out walking in the sun
Oh, you hide it so well
It isn’t easy to tell
But I know a heartache
When I see one
Time is a teacher
Oh, and it’s taught me well
The loser is the one who cries
And when you’ve cried like a baby
And you’ve hurt like hell
You know the devil
By the look in his eyes
So don’t you knock on my door
I won’t be home anymore
You can find me out walking in the sun
Oh, you hide it so well
It isn’t easy to tell
But I know a heartache
When I see one
So don’t you knock on my door
I won’t be home anymore
You can find me out walking in the sun
Oh, you hide it so well
It isn’t easy to tell
But I know a heartache
When I see one
I know a heartache when I see one

July Morning
July Morning
Composer(s): David Byron; Ken Hensley
Performer(s): Uriah Heep;
Ken Hensley; Alex Rudi Pell
There I was on a July morning
Looking for love
With the strength
Of a new day dawning
And the beautiful sun
At the sound
Of the first bird singing
I was leaving for home
With the storm
And the night behind me
And a road of my own
With the day came the resolution
I'll be looking for you
La la la la
I was looking for love
In the strangest places
Wasn't a stone
That I left unturned
Must have tried more
Than a thousand faces
But not one was aware
Of the fire that burned
In my heart, in my mind, in my soul
La la la la
There I was on a July morning
I was looking for love
With the strength
Of a new day dawning
And the beautiful sun
And at the sound
Of the first bird singing
I was leaving for home
With the storm
And the night behind me
Yeah, and a road of my own

You make me smile
You make me sing
You make me feel good everything
You bring me up
When I've been down
This only happens when you're around
And I can't go on this way...
With it stronger every day...
But being too shy to say
That I really love you...
I wanna fly
Away with you
Until there's nothing more for us to do
I wanna be
More than a friend
Until the end of an endless end
And I can't go on this way...
With it stronger every day...
But being too shy to say
That I really love you...
And I can't go on this way...
Feelin' it stronger every day...
But being too shy to say
That I really love you
Ohh... ooh...

I know a dream when I see one
For I'm a dreamer you know

And I see one when I look at you
But make no mistake although I'm wide awake
I know a dream when I see one
And I see one when I look at you

July Away
July Away
Composer(s): Michael Bacon
Performer(s): The Bacon Brothers
Sweet July's not welcomed here
Here the trees are green all year
They don't need her summer's glow
In this land of ice and snow
Lakes of steel frozen flat
July comes and changes that
Smashing with her warm sun rays
Tilts the docks and heaves the highways
Chorus
July you're a young girl
July it's an old world
My heart races when I see you nearing
But I know I'll soon be hearing
The sad songs the mad songs
The everything is bad songs
Won't you fly away
July away
I once had a girl so fair
With eyes of blue and golden hair
Don't know why she let me go
To this land of ice and snow
Chorus

Julius Caesar
Julius Caesar
Composer(s): Nico
Performer(s): Nico
Amidst water lily fields white and green
Grows a tree
And from the tree hang apples
Not for you to eat.
In a way it matters more
Than it did before
To see the East voyaging through
True hearts of dunes
Mirth
Birth
Reverie
There in harmony
Somersault caravans of fools
As he passes for reply
To sing his songs again.
He sways to kiss the horizontal ground
And from the ground a dove rises
And as a mark of honor
A mask is left behind
Mirth
Birth
Reverie
There in harmony
To gentle form and noble force
Calm and vast his voice cascades
From this gentle stage
Calm and vast the city lies
On a horizontal ground
Kind and calm Julius lies
For Octavian to prevail
Mirth
Birth
Reverie
In harmony
Traverses the peninsula
Aeolus with his whisperwinds to strike
With his gentle kisses the righteous
And wise and doom ambitious praise
With his will his will and order
Mirth
Birth
Reverie
Amidst water lily fields white and green
Grows a tree
And from the tree hang apples
Not for you to eat
Beneath the heaving sea
Where statues and pillars and stone altars rest for all these
Aching bones to guide us far from energy
Mirth
Birth
Reverie

Too Poor To Die
Too Poor To Die
Performer(s): Louisiana Red & Little Victor'S Juke Joint
Last night I had a dream
I dream I died
The undertaker came
To carry me for the ride
I couldn't afford a coffin
Embalmin' kinda high
I jumped off my death bed
'Cause I too poor to die
I's in trouble
And I'll tell you the reason why
I'm just too poor people
I'm too poor to go lay down and die
I dream at the cemetery
I couldn't afford enough
To pay the gravediggers
To cover me up
It cost a lot of money
'Cause they was union men
I guess before I die
I better think again
I'm in trouble
And I'll tell you the reason why
I'm just too poor people
I'm too poor to go lay down and die
Dream I met the devil
He is waitin' at the gate
Say "come on in Red
You ain't a minute late"
Said he lead me to his kingdom
Lead me by my arm
But he wouldn't move my body
Less I grease his palm
I's in trouble
And I'll tell you the reason why
I'm just too poor people
I'm too poor to go lay down and die
