1. _ Paris Bells

2. _ Come And Stay With Me
I'll send away all my false pride
And i'll forsake all of my life.
Yes, i'll be as true, as true can be
If you'll come and stay with me.
Lovers of the past i'll leave behind,
There'll never be another on my mind.
I'll do all i can so you'll feel free
If you'll come and stay with me.
The promises i made most faithfully,
I'll keep still, should you decide to leave.
I'll try and see that you have all you need
If you'll come and stay with me.
We'll live a life no one has ever known,
But i know you're thinking that i'm hardly grown.
But oh, thank god, at last and finally
I can see you're gonna stay with me.
But oh, thank god, at last and finally
I can see you're gonna stay with me.

3. _ Greensleeves
Alas my love you do me wrong
To cast me off discourteously
For i have loved you so long
Delighting in your company.
Greensleeves was all my joy,
Greensleeves was my delight.
Greensleeves was my heart of gold
And who but my lady greensleeves ?
Alas my love that you should own
A heart of wanton vanity
So i must laddie think alone
Upon your insincerity.
Greensleeves ...

4. _ If I Never Get To Love You
If i never get to love you
It won't be that i didn't try.
I'll be trying to possess you
Till the day i die.
If i never get to love you
It won't be that i ran away.
For as long as you will have me
Close to you, i'll stay.
What i wouldn't give to hold you tight
Never, never let you out of sight
Be the one you give your first kiss every morning,
The last one you kiss goodnight.
If i never get to love you
It won't be that i didn't care.
There is nothing that i want more
Or i need more
And my heart would surely break in two,
If i never get to love you.
What i wouldn't give to hold you tight
Never, never let you out of sight
Be the one you give your first kiss every morning,
The last one you kiss goodnight.
If i never get to love you
It won't be that i didn't care.
There is nothing that i want more
Or i need more
And my heart could surely break in two,
If i never get to love you.

5. _ I'd Like To Dial Your Number
I'd like to dial your number again
But i don't remember it so well.
I'd like to see you again
'cause i don't remember when
I said i wouldn't see you again
Been so long i don't remember when.
I'd like to kiss you one more time
Because i feel it might be different now.
I'd like to love you one more time
Because the last respect was mine.
Although i didn't have the time
Been so long just thought one more time.
So i'd like to dial your number again,
Seems that i remember it so well.
I'd like to see you again
'cause i don't remember when
I said i wouldn't see you again
Been so long, can you tell me when ?

6. _ He'll Come Back To Me
Do you hear
What i hear,
Or can i have been deceived ?
Voices singing,
Bells are ringing,
They say
He'll come back to me.
Though he's gone,
In my sleep
As if he were here with me,
He'll be back now,
I can tell now,
You'll see,
He'll come back to me.
Once more, once more,
Tell me that he's still sure.
I know, i know
That he loves me much more
And i'll be here waiting
Until he comes back to me.
There's one thing
You should know:
Just how much i love him so.
Though he hurt me,
He won't desert me,
And now
He'll come back to me.
Once more, once more,
Tell me that he's still sure.
I know, i know
That he loves me much more
And i'll be here waiting
Until he comes back to me.
There's one thing
You should know:
Just how much i love him so.
Though he hurt me,
He won't desert me,
And now
He'll come back to me.
So you see,
Patiently
I'll be waiting here for his call.
Voices singing,
Church bells ringing
To say
He's come back to me.

7. _ Down Town
When you're alone
And life is making you lonely
You can always go
Down town.
When you've got worries
All the noise and the hurry
Seems to hurt, i know.
Down town.
Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city,
Linger on the sidewalks where the neon signs are pretty.
How can you lose ?
The lights are much brighter there,
You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares
And go down town.
Things will be great when you're
Down town.
No finer place for sure,
Down town.
Everything's waiting for you.
Don't hang around
And let your problems surround you,
There are movie shows
Down town.
Maybe you know
Some little places to go
To where they never close,
Down town.
Just listen to the rhythm of the gentle bossa-nova,
You'll be dancing with them, too, before the night is over,
Happy again.
The lights are much brighter there,
You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares
And go down town.
Where all the lights are bright
Down town.
Waiting for you tonight
Down town.
You're gonna be all right now.
And you may find
Somebody kind
To help and understand you,
Someone who is just like you
And needs a gentle hand
To guide him along.
So maybe i'll see you there,
We can forget all our troubles, forget all our cares
And go down town.
Things will be great when you're
Down town.
Don't wait a minute more,
Down town.
Everything's waiting for you.

8. _ I'm A Loser
Of all the love i have won or have lost
There is one love i should never have crossed.
He was a boy in a million, my friend,
I should have known he would win in the end.
I'm a loser
And i lost someone who's near to me.
I'm a loser
And i'm not what i appear to be.
Although i laugh and i act like a clown,
Beneath this mask i am wearing a frown.
My tears are falling like rain from the sky,
Is it for him or myself that i cry ?
I'm a loser
And i lost someone who's near to me.
I'm a loser
And i'm not what i appear to be.
I'm a loser
And i lost someone who's near to me.
I'm a loser
And i'm not what i appear to be.
What have i done to deserve such a fate ?
I realise i have left it too late
And so it's true pride comes before a fall,
I'm telling you so that you won't lose all.
I'm a loser
And i lost someone who's near to me.
I'm a loser
And i'm not what i appear to be.
I'm a loser.

9. _ Morning Sun
I see the morning sun
Coming over the hill,
Sorrow and pain for me
Coming over the hill.
I'm very sad
Lost love for me
But i will love again.
I know a man
Who breaks every heart that he can.
I know him well
For i have been hurt by this man.
I'm very sad,
Tears follow me,
But i will love again.
I'm very sad,
Tears follow me,
But i will love again.
I know a man
Who promises that he'll be true
And i look back once again,
Well, what else could i do ?
I'm very sad
But he is true
And we will love again.
I see the morning sun
Coming over the hill.
I see him and he says
That he'll stay
And he will.
I'm sad no more,
He comforts me
And we will love again.

10. _ As Tears Go By
It is the evening of the day,
I sit and watch the children play.
Smiling faces i can see
But not for me,
I sit and watch as tears go by.
My riches can't buy everything,
I want to hear the children sing.
All i hear is the sound
Of rain falling on the ground,
I sit and watch as tears go by.
It is the evening of the day,
I sit and watch the children play.
Doing things i used to do
They think are new,
I sit and watch as tears go by.
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm ...

11. _ The Sha La La Song
At last it's over,
I knew i could not hold him,
His love for freedom
Was far too strong.
But though he's gone now
My life is just beginning,
I'll soon forget him,
I'll soon forget him,
I must forget him, lord!
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la,
There's a brand new day beginning.
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la,
There's a brand new love that waits for me.
Will i remember,
Will i still hear him whisper ?
Will i still feel his
Lips on mine ?
In dreams i see him,
Perhaps he'll stay forever
And all i'm wishing
And all i'm hoping
And all my longing, too.
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la,
There's a brand new day beginning.
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la,
There's a brand new love that waits for me.
He made me happy
And though i suffered, too,
There's no mistaking
Our love was true.
But such a sweet love
Just wasn't meant to be
And it's all over
Yes, it's all over,
And now it's done i'll start anew.
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la,
There's a brand new day beginning.
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la,
There's a brand new love beginning.
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la,
There's a brand new day beginning.
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la,
There's a brand new love beginning.
Sha-la-la ...

12. _ Plaisir D'amour
Plaisir d'amour
Ne dure qu'un moment,
Chagrin d'amour
Dure toute la vie.
Your eyes kissed mine,
I saw the love in them shine.
But you gave me heaven right then
When your eyes kissed mine.
Plaisir d'amour
Ne dure qu'un moment.
Chagrin d'amour
Dure toute la vie.
My love loves me
And all the wonders i see
But the rainbow
Shines in my window,
My love loves me.
Plaisir d'amour
Ne dure qu'un moment.
Chagrin d'amour
Dure toute la vie.

13. _ In My Time Of Sorrow
In my time of sorrow,
In my time of feeling bad
Oh what i'd give
Just to relive
All of the good times that i've had.
In my time of sorrow
In my time of feeling alone
There was a time
I could ease my mind
With thoughts of just being on my own.
Changes of life
I'm going through
Keep me from doing
What i know i should do.
In my time of sorrow
In my time where teardrops fall
I can't tell you why
I don't want to try,
But the time has come
For me to say fare well.
In my time of sorrow
In my time of sorrow
In my time of sorrow...

14. _ Time Takes Time
The wind laughs and the world cries,
And i don't care anymore.
I can only hear the sound of my head,
And the soft sea roar.
For the wind laughs and the world cries
And i shall laugh with the wind.
Today will end when the sun will rise
When i shall laugh to your blind eyes.
The world can break
And time takes time to realise.
For the wind laughs, the world cries
And i shall laugh with the wind.
I shall laugh like a child in the wind and change
As love for me has always been strange.
The wind laughs and the world cries,
But i don't care anymore.
I can only hear the sound of my head,
And the soft sea roar.
For the wind laughs and the world cries
And i shall laugh with the wind.

15. _ House Of The Rising Sun
[version 1]
There is a house in new orleans,
They call it the risin' sun
And it's been the ruin
Of many poor girl,
And me, oh god, i'm one.
There is a house in new orleans,
They call it the risin' sun
And it's been the ruin
Of many poor girl,
And me, oh god, i'm one.
If i had listened
To what my mother said
I'd've been at home today.
But i was young and foolish, oh god,
Let a rambler lead me astray.
Go tell my baby sister
Don't do what i have done.
Go shun that house in new orleans
They call the risin' sun.
Well, i'm going back to new orleans,
My race is almost run.
I'm going back to spend my life
In the house of the risin' sun.

16. _ Can't You Hear My Heartbeat
Every time i see you looking my way,
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat ?
In the park or walking down the high way,
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat ?
And when you move up closer to me
I get a feeling that's oo-wee.
Can't you hear the pounding of my heartbeat
'cause you're the one i love, you're the one i love.
When i feel you put your arms around me,
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat ?
Then i'm glad, i'm mighty glad you found me,
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat ?
And when you asked me to meet your ma
I knew that baby we'd be goin' far.
Can't you hear the pounding of my heartbeat
'cause you're the one i love, you're the one i love.
All my friends are crying out to meet you,
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat ?
Now's the time to go and see the preacher,
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat ?
Now wedding bells are going to chime
And baby, baby, you're gonna be mine.
Can't you hear the pounding of my heartbeat
'cause you're the one i love, you're the one i love.
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat ?
Ah!
Ah ...
Oh ...
Oh ...

17. _ Oh Look Around You
"oh, look around you,
Tell me what do you see ?
Do you see the yellow morning
And the green land so free ?"
"oh no, i see no morning
But lands of dark and grey
And they tell me the green land
Has long gone away,
Has long gone away."
"once more look around you,
Tell me what do you see ?
Do you see the clear wave laughter
And the deep blue sea ?"
"oh no, there is no sorrow
Where the laughing tree stood
And they tell me the blue sea
Has long turned to blood,
Has long turned to blood."
"no more look around you,
Say no more what you see.
But give me your cold hand
And lay beside me.
And there, oh my darling,
You will never worry
And we, like the others,
Will forget in our sleep,
Will forget in our sleep."

18. _ What Have I Done Wrong
What have i done wrong ?
It seems i've hurt you once again,
I try so hard but all in vain.
Tears in your eyes you can't disguise,
But please forgive me if you can.
What have i done wrong ?
I hate to make you suffer so,
I'm not a child and i should know
Where laughing ends and tears begin
And i must seem so cruel to you.
Come, let me kiss your tender lips
And you will see our love can be.
What have i done wrong ?
You turn away when i am here
And yet i know you need not fear.
If i had time to ease your mind
I'd let you know how much i care.
What have i done wrong ?

19. _ What Have They Done To The Rain
Just a little rain falling all around,
The grass lifts its head to the heavenly sound.
Just a little rain, just a little rain,
What have they done to the rain ?
Just a little boy, standing in the rain,
A gentle rain that falls for years.
And the grass is gone, the boy disappears,
And rain keeps falling like helpless tears
And what have they done to the rain ?
Just a little breeze out of the sky,
The leaves nod their head as the breeze blows by.
Just a little breeze with some smoke in its eye,
What have they done to the rain ?
Just a little boy, standing in the rain,
A gentle rain that falls for years.
And the grass is gone, the boy disappears,
And rain keeps falling like helpless tears
And what have they done to the rain ?
And what have they done to the rain ?

20. _ They Never Will Leave You
They never will leave you
The pain and the sorrow
Of love that one day maybe
You will learn
Can only be shared by you
And how much i yearn
The days that we once knew
Will never return.
They never will leave
The rain and the storms
The snow and the winds
That guide you depart.
They took you far away
Right out of my life.
They condemned us and
They'd stolen my heart.
They never will leave you,
My hopes or my memories.
I've lost all my loving,
Got nowhere to turn.
My happiness with you
Has drowned in my tears,
The tears that will fall until
The day you return.
The tears that will fall until
The day you return.
The tears that will fall until
The day you return.
