"La Vie En Rose"
(originally by Édith Piaf)



Des yeux qui font baiser les miens
Un rire qui se perd sur sa bouche
Voilà le portrait sans retouche
De l'homme auquel j'appartiens

Quand il me prend dans ses bras
Il me parle tout bas
Je vois la vie en rose
Il me dit des mots d'amour
Des mots de tous les jours
Et ça m'fait quelque chose
Il est entré dans mon coeur
Une part de bonheur
Dont je connais la cause
C'est lui pour moi
Moi pour lui dans la vie
Il me l'a dit, l'a juré
Pour la vie
Et dès que je l'apercois
Alors je sens en moi
Mon coeur qui bat

Des nuits d'amour à plus finir
Un grand bonheur qui prend sa place
Des ennuis des chagrins s'effacent
Heureux, heureux à en mourir

Quand il me prend dans ses bras
Il me parle tout bas
Je vois la vie en rose
Il me dit des mots d'amour
Des mots de tous les jours
Et ça m'fait quelque chose
Il est entré dans mon coeur
Une part de bonheur
Dont je connais la cause
C'est lui pour moi
Moi pour lui dans la vie
Il me l'a dit, l'a juré
Pour la vie
Et dès que je l'apercois
Alors je sens en moi
Mon coeur qui bat

"Land Of Make Believe"
(originally by The Drifters)



You are always here with me
In the Land of Make-Believe
In the Land of Make-Believe

In the Land of Make-Believe
You're mine tonight, although you are far away
In the Land of Make-Believe
I'm holding you tight

A silver moon is shining above
And there's love in your eyes
And I'm kissing you like I used to do
Yesterday in paradise

I've been livin' in the Land of Make-Believe
Since you've been gone
I need you so much that, without your love,
I must deceive myself to go on

Your loving hand caresses my face
We embrace tenderly
Never will we part
Deep down in my heart
You are always here with me

You are always here with me
In the Land of Make-Believe
In the Land of Make-Believe

I need you so much

Your loving hand caresses my face
We embrace tenderly
Never will we part
Deep down in my heart
You are always here with me

You are always here with me
In the Land of Make-Believe
In the Land of Make-Believe
You are always here with me
In the Land of Make-Believe

"Let Me Be Lonely"

"Let Me Be Lonely"



Oh, let me be lonely
I wanna be faithful and honest
And true to the one I love
The one I love

Oh, let me be lonely
I've gotta be someone he's proud
To come home to some happy day
What a day that will be

I wanna be there, be there by the door
When he comes back to me
If I deceive him even once, I couldn't face him
Oh, I know I couldn't face him

If I give in to loneliness
And hold you tight
All through the night

Oh, let me, let me be lonely
'Cause I love him only
Oh, let me be, oh, let me be
Let me be lonely

I wanna be there, be there by his side
All through my life and if I ever let him down
I have to tell him, oh yes, I have to tell him
And if I did, what could he do?
He'd say goodbye and I would die, yes

Let me, let me be lonely
'Cause I love him only
Oh, let me be, oh, let me be
Oh, let me be, let me, let me
Oh, won't you let me be lonely

Oh yeah, let me be lonely
Oh, oh, yeah, let me be lonely, yeah
I'll be, let me be lonely

"Let Me Go To Him"

"Let Me Go To Him"


He needs me more than you do
And I know that he loves me
You never have
To you I am only a play thing
Just a toy that you found
You just keep around
Let me go to him
Let me be the woman I can be
If you set me free
Let me go to him
I can't live without his love
So I'm beggin' you to let me go to him
Let me go to him

Face the truth
You just don't care
When I try to work things out
You're never there
And lately we're never together
Half the time you don't call
That's no life at all

[repeat chorus]

"Little Green Apples"
(originally by O.C. Smith)

"Little Green Apples"
(originally by O.C. Smith)



And I wake up in the mornin'
With my hair down in my eyes and she says: "Hi"
And I stumble to the breakfast table
While the kids are goin' off to school, goodbye
And she reaches out 'n' takes my hand
And squeezes it 'n' says: "How ya feelin', hon?"
And I look across at smilin' lips
That warm my heart and see my mornin' sun

And if that's not lovin' me
Then all I've got to say
God didn't make little green apples
And it don't rain in Indianapolis in the summertime
And there's no such thing as Doctor Seuss
Or Disneyland, and Mother Goose, no nursery rhyme
God didn't make little green apples
And it don't rain in Indianapolis in the summertime
And when my self is feelin' low
I think about her face aglow and ease my mind

Sometimes I call her up at home knowin' she's busy
And ask her if she could get away and meet me
And maybe we could grab a bite to eat
And she drops what she's doin' and she hurries down to meet me
And I'm always late
But she sits waitin' patiently and smiles when she first sees me
'cause she's made that way

And if that ain't lovin' me
Then all I've got to say
God didn't make little green apples
And it don't snow in Minneapolis when the winter comes
And there's no such thing as make-believe
Puppy dogs, autumn leaves 'n' BB guns

God didn't make little green apples
And it don't rain in Indianapolis

"Loneliness Remembers What Happiness Forgets"

"Loneliness Remembers What Happiness Forgets"



Loneliness remembers what happiness forgets
I had to lose you to recall that life's not really all sunshine and laughter
Loneliness remembers what happiness forgets
And when you fall in love too fast
The sunshine doesn't last forever after whenever a drop of rain
First came the pleasure and then the pain
We were the talk of the town
Ask anybody around they'll let you know
We were the fire that lit the stars
No other love was as bright as ours
Everything's turning around, gone is the love that I found
You went away, now I'm alone
Loneliness remembers what happiness forgets
And when you fall in love too fast
The sunshine doesn't last forever after whenever a drop of rain
First came the pleasure and then came all the pain.

"Long Day, Short Night"

"Long Day, Short Night"



It’s been a long day, short night
Well I can hardly wait
Until we had our date
It’s been a long, long, long day
And then we meet at last
The hours passed so fast
It was a short, short night

The moment when I’m alone with you
That’s when all of my wishes
And all of my dreams come true
But time waits for no one
When there’s so much love here in my heart
Honey, why we had to part?

It’s been a long day, short night
I need to love so much
That when we’re out of touch
It’s a long, long, long day
But will you marry me
Each night of love will be
A very short, short night

"Lookin' With My Eyes"

"Lookin' With My Eyes"



Well, here I go again
Looking with my eyes
Seeing with my heart
Just like I used to do

You said hello again
Suddenly the lies
Sound just like the truth
And I believe in you

The tears of yesterday have gone away
Here in your arms I will stay
This time my happiness won't disappear
Loneliness is over

Well, here I go again
Looking with my eyes
Things look bad for me
Seeing with my heart
I just close my eyes
And I can see we're so in love

Oh, darling, darling, darling
Don't you ever go away from me
This time you've got to promise
You're gonna stay with me

This time my happiness won't disappear
Loneliness is over

Well, here I go again
Looking with my eyes
Things look bad for me
Seeing with my heart
I just close my eyes
And I can see we're so in love

Oh, darling, darling, darling, promise
You're gonna stay with me
No, no, no, don't ever
Don't ever go away from me

Oh, my darling, my darling
Don't ever go far away from me this time

"Love At Second Sight"

"Love At Second Sight"



If we learn to pace ourselves
It won't seem so dramatic, it won't be so unclear
'Cause if we learn to pace ourselves
The ghost up in the attic might just disappear
You may not agree but it could happen here

And in the morning I think we're gonna laugh somehow
At what we are afraid of now
'Cause in the morning we'll know better than tonight
If it's gonna end up love at second sight

And if we learn to trust our hearts
And disregard the voices leading us away
And we can make a better start
We have all the choices, we have all the say
And you might not agree but you can't walk away

'Cause in the morning I think we're gonna laugh somehow
At what we are afraid of now
'Cause in the morning we'll know better than tonight
If it's gonna end up love

Of course we both have our doubts
Let me hold you until we find out
Though we don't have a clue
For we thought it's me and you

In the morning I think we're gonna laugh somehow
At what we are afraid of now
'Cause in the morning we'll know better than tonight
If it's gonna end up love at second sight
Love at second sight

"Love Begins With You"

"Love Begins With You"



You touched me
Like no one has touched me
Deep inside my soul
Where there was a hole
Deeper than the sea

I need you, thought I needed no one
Now there's something new inside me
And it's broken through my pride
Love's come to heal me, this time I won't be denied

Everything begins with you
I give into your sweet love, your complete love
After all that I've been through
I am so grateful that love begins with you

Hey, I don't even mind
The rain no more
I don't care, let it rain
(Go on and let it rain)
Let it pour
(Let it pour)

Everything begins with you
I give into your sweet love, your complete love
Everything begins with you
It lives in you

My love begins with you
My love begins with you
My love begins with you
Everything begins with you
