Turn Back The Universe (And Give Me Yesterday)


Turn Back The Universe (And Give Me Yesterday)
Composer(s): Ernest R. Ball - J. Keirn Brennan



It seems so long ago, although 'twas only yesterday
when just a word in anger heard our lives should part for aye
With faith so strong we thought no wrong could tear our heart strings then
what would I give could I but live the days that might have been!

My soul I'd give to live the happy days beyond recall
when you were near and to you, dear, I gave my love, my all
A perfect past too good to last, is all I dream of now
I hope and wait and trust to fate to bring you back some how!

Turn back the universe and give me yesterday
unclasp the hands of time that hold life's golden ray
Take back that bitter hour when our love passed away
turn back the universe and give me yesterday!

Ik dacht dat je zei 't is nu echt voorbij
ik kon 't eigenlijk niet begrijpen 't was 'n klap voor mij
maar na 'n maand had jij gezien dat je me miste zocht me op
nee ik niet meer want dit wordt wederom 'n flop

Het is voorbij het gaat niet meer
ik weet het is tegen jouw regels maar het doet maar even zeer
je kreeg toch alles wat je vroeg maar dat was zelfs nog niet genoeg
jij dacht hij kan toch niet alleen zijn maar dan zat ik in de kroeg
het is voorbij laat mij maar gaan
ga naar je vrienden want die zagen mij nooit staan
nee ik hoef niet eens te denken wat ik zeker weer ga doen
ik wil weer leven terug in de tijd ja net als toen

Nee blijf maar weg het is gedaan
ach probeer maar weer te wennen aan die klanten voor 't raam
echt m'n keuze staat nu vast ik wil van jou echt nooit meer last
het is voorbij het is voorbij

Even dacht ik nog je bent nu echt van mij
dat was 'n hele grote fout want ik liet jou te vrij
maar ach wat maak ik me nog druk
gelukkig is 't nu dan stuk
ja 't is voorbij 't is nu echt voor jou voorbij

Het is voorbij het gaat niet meer
ik weet het is tegen jouw regels maar het doet maar even zeer
je kreeg toch alles wat je vroeg maar dat was zelfs nog niet genoeg
jij dacht hij kan toch niet alleen zijn maar dan zat ik in de kroeg
het is voorbij laat mij maar gaan
ga naar je vrienden want die zagen mij nooit staan
nee ik hoef niet eens te denken wat ik zeker weer ga doen
ik wil weer leven teruil in de tijd ja net als toen

Nee blijf maar weg het is gedaan
ach probeer maar weer te wennen aan die klanten voor 't raam
echt m'n keuze staat nu vast ik wil van jou echt nooit meer last
het is voorbij het is voorbij

Komm In Mein Boot


Komm In Mein Boot
Performer(s): Salvatore Adamo



Komm in mein Boot
komm laß uns flieh'n!
Komm in mein Boot
laß die Vögel uns zieh'n!

Es gibt ein Inselreich
das Verliebte nur seh'n...
Dort tanzen die Sterne schweigend über'm Meer!
Der Morgen dort gleicht
dem Grün deiner Augen sehr!

Aus purer Poesie
muß alles dort besteh'n
man sagt
daß selbst die Zeit
sich weigert zu vergeh'n!
Der Lärm und die Hast der Welt
sind weit
so weit:
Nur du noch und ich
und die Zärtlichkeit!

Eine Insel mit Sonnenglanz
blauer See und weißem Sand
wo wir uns lieben und träumen
und wieder uns lieben allein am Strand!
Steig ein in mein Boot
denn es fliegt so schnell
so traumgeschwind
daß wir schon im Morgenrot
auf uns'rer Insel sind.

Komm in mein Boot
komm laß uns flieh'n!
Komm in mein Boot
laß die Vögel uns zieh'n!

I Will Rock And Roll With You


I Will Rock And Roll With You
Composer(s): Johnny Cash
First release by: Johnny Cash - 1978



They used to call me Rockabilly, all of us ran through
When Elvis opened up the door with a pup-and-pup-and-boo
I didn't ever play much rock and roll cause I got so much country in my soul
But I'm a different man for lovin' you and I take a shot at what you ask me to
And baby I will rock and roll with you.....if I have to

Memphis 1955 on Newton Avenue
Carl and Jerry and Charlie and Roy and Billy Riley too
A new sun risin' on the way we sing and a world of weirdo's waitin' in the wings
But I love you and though I'm past 42 there are still a few things yet I didn't do
And baby I will rock and roll with you.....if I have to

Turn Back The Hands Of Time


Turn Back The Hands Of Time
Composer(s): Jack Daniels - Bonnie Thompson
First release: Tyrone Davis - 1970
Covered by multiple other artists



Oh darling I'm so lonely without you
Can't sleep at night always think about you
But if I had the chance to start all over
I would be wishing today on a four leaf clover
And leaving you with the last thing on my mind
If I could turn back the hands of time

Oh darling I can't hold out much longer
Oh the pain's so deep and the hurt is getting stronger
But if I had just one more try
I would be yours, yours alone until the day I die
and we would have a love so divine
If I could turn back the hands of time

Oh darling please, please let me come back home
Your love has been so good to me baby
And I just relied without it
I can't go on and you're the other half
That makes my life complete
If I had one more chance we'd have a love so sweet

I Will Remember You


I Will Remember You
Composer(s): Sarah McLachlan; Séamus Egan; Dave Merenda
Performer(s): Sarah McLachlan



I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories

Remember the good times that we had?
I let them slip away from us when things got bad
How clearly I first saw you smilin' in the sun
Wanna feel your warmth upon me, I wanna be the one

I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories

I'm so tired but I can't sleep
Standin' on the edge of something much too deep
It's funny how we feel so much but we cannot say a word
We are screaming inside, but we can't be heard

But I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories

I'm so afraid to love you, but more afraid to loose
Clinging to a past that doesn't let me choose
Once there was a darkness, deep and endless night
You gave me everything you had, oh you gave me light

And I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories

And I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories
Weep not for the memories

I Will Remember


I Will Remember
Composer(s): Steve Lukather; Stan Lynch
Performer(s): Toto



I was born in the land of the sun
And the tall green grass
And I don’t understand
How all this has come to pass

That we’ve come to surround ourselves
In a sea of thieves
In a land without learning
Only the fools believe

I went drivin’ last night
On a dark canyon road
Had the sky to myself
But I wasn’t alone

Had the pain of my lifetime
For my company
How did it end up like this
For you and me

When love breaks the promise, the heart has to keep
It leaves only truth here to find
When the spirit is crushed and the hurt is so deep
Between you and I

Even when love has come and gone
And our hearts have moved along
I will remember
There was a time we had the trust
And that always was enough
I will remember
I will remember you

As I open my eyes
To one more day
The wind burns my face
As it whispers your name

As it’s pulling me forward
It tears me free
And the only thing left
Is the tears for and me

‘Cause when love breaks the promise, the heart has to keep
It leaves only truth here to find
When the spirit is crushed and hurt is so deep
Between you and I

Even when love has come and gone
And our hearts have moved along
I will remember
There was a time we had the trust
And that always was enough
I will remember

Even when love has come and gone
And our hearts have moved along
I will remember
There was a time we had the trust
And that always was enough
I will remember
I will remember you

No, no, no

Komm, Senorita, Komm


Komm, Senorita, Komm ((French & Italian Versions: L'arlequin De Tolède (by Dalida); L'arlecchino Gitano (by Dalida)) Composer(s): Hubert Giraud - Jean Dréjac - Bader Performer(s): Dalida



Hell schien der mond von Granada
Auf die sierra nevada
Da kam aus estramadore
Ein verliebter senore
Er spielt so schön mandoline
Für seine kolombine
Und durch die nacht von Granada
Klang seine Serenada

Komm senorita komm nach Estramador
Da senorita träumen wir von amore
Denn senorita denn in Estramadore
Sag ich beim mondenschein
Meine ganze welt ist dein

Kaum war die weise verklungen
Die der senor gesungen
Rief die Mama Kolombine
Wer spielt da mandoline
Da grüsste mit dem sombrero
Höflich der caballero
Und durch die nacht immer wieder
Sang er das Lied der lieder

Komm senorita komm nach Estramador
Da senorita träumen wir von amore
Denn senorita denn in Estramadore
Sag ich beim mondenschein
Meine ganze welt ist dein

Nacht für nacht sang vor dem tore
Der verliebte Senore
Und die Mama konnt' dem flehen
Nun nicht mehr widerstehen
Da gab's im land der geranien
Kein schönres paar in Spanien
Und überall in Granada
Sang man die serenada

Komm senorita komm nach Estramador
Da senorita träumen wir von amore
Denn senorita denn in Estramadore
Sag ich beim mondenschein
Meine ganze welt ist dein

Turn Around Walk Away


Turn Around Walk Away
Composer(s): Donnie Abercrombie - Ernest Tubb
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb & The Texas Troubadors



Don’t say a word
Turn Around
Walk Away
Don’t look back or I might beg you to stay

We both know just how it all will end
Because you’ve lyed to me time and time again

You know how you’ve hurt me in the past
How could a warm love like ours grow cold, so fast
You’ll only hurt me more if you stay
Don’t say a word
Turn Around
Walk Away

Don’t say a word
Turn Around
Walk Away

You don’t really want me anyway
You can even say that I left you
But, Turn Around
Walk Away
I beg of you

You know how you’ve hurt me in the past
How could a warm love like ours grow cold, so fast
You’ll only hurt me more if you stay
Don’t say a word
Turn Around
Walk Away

I Will Play A Rhapsody


I Will Play A Rhapsody
Composer(s): Burton Cummings
Performer(s): Burton Cummings; Marleigh Rouault; Mary Smith



What will you see? What will you be?
Anything you want to love is easy
How will you know if I am for you
You won't know me to see me, but you'll know by what I do

For I will play a rhapsody
Cleverly disguise it so it's not been heard before
And I will sing a lullaby
Let you know I'm near you through the night to keep you warm

How will you know where you should go
Anywhere you want to love is fast or love is slow
Falling through feelings and falling through time
You won't know me to see me but I'll come to you in rhyme

For I will play rhapsody
Cleverly disguise it so it's not been heard before
And I will sing a lullaby
Let you know I'm near you through the night to keep you warm

I will play a rhapsody

Stranded alone on a sea of emotion
You found me
Your love was a light
In the darkness that shone
So profoundly
Say that you'll stay
Do not be afraid, afraid
You, you're my breath
The air I breathe
You are my imagination
Su le finesse
Song of my heart
Secrets I'm not afraid to whisper

Con te partiro
I'll go where you lead me
Wherever you are
(forever and ever we'll stay)
In love together
I will go with you
I'll go where you lead me
Forever true
(forever and ever we'll stay)
In love together

Stranded alone on a sea of emotion
You found me
It's you who first found me
Come here, come here
Put your arms around me
Come here
It's you who surrounds me
Come here, come here
Come here
Come here
You, you're my breath
The air I breathe
You are my imagination
Su le finesse
Song of my heart
Secrets I'm not afraid to whisper

First recording/First release: Carl Perkins - 1954/1955
Covered by multiple other artists



When you're all alone and blue
And the world looks down on you
Turn around, I'll be following you

When you feel that love is gone
And you realize you're wrong
Turn around, I'll be following you

Turn around, I'll be waiting behind you
With a love that's real and never, ever dies
If you feel your love will last
And you like to live your past
Turn around, I'll be following you

Maybe God will make you see
That your love is still for me
Turn around, I'll be following you

When you're in my arms again
There will never be an end
Turn around, I'll be following you

Turn around, I'll be waiting behind you
With a love that's pure and never, ever dies
If you feel your love will last
And you like to live your past
Turn around, I'll be following you

I will follow Him
Follow Him wherever He may go
And near Him, I always will be
For nothing can keep me away
He is my destiny

I will follow Him
Ever since He touched my heart I knew
There isn't an ocean too deep
A mountain so high it can keep
Keep me away, away from His love

I love Him, I love Him, I love Him
And where He goes
I'll follow, I'll follow, I'll follow
he'll always be my true love, my true love, my true love
from now until forever, forever, forever

I will follow Him
Follow Him wherever He may go
There isn't an ocean too deep
A mountain so high it can keep
Keep me away, away from His love...

We will follow Him
Follow Him wherever He may go
There isn't an ocean too deep
A mountain so high it can keep
Keep us away, away from His love...

I love Him
(Oh yes I love Him)
I'll follow
(I'm gonna follow)
True love
(He'll always be my true, true love)
Forever
(Now until forever)
I love Him, I love Him, I love Him
And where He goes
I'll follow, I'll follow, I'll follow
He'll always be my true love
My true love, my true love
From now until forever
Forever, forever...

There isn't an ocean too deep
A mountain so high it can keep
Keep me away, away from His love
