Sun & Moon

 



(*) Alain Boublil


It's raining, it's pouringA black sky is fallingIt's cold tonight
You gave me your answerGoodbyeNow I'm all on my own tonight
And when the big wheel starts to spinYou can never know the oddsIf you dont play, you'll never win
We were in heaven, you and IWhen I lay with you and close my eyesOur fingers touch the sky
I'm sorry babyYou were the sun and moon to meI'll never get over you, you'll never get over me
And when the big wheel starts to spinYou can never know the oddsIf you dont play, you'll never win
We were in heaven, you and IWhen I lay with you and close my eyesOur fingers touch the sky
I'm sorry babyYou were the sun and moon to meI'll never get over you, you'll never get over me
I'm sorry babyYou were the sun and moon to meI'll never get over you, you'll never get over me
I'm sorry babyYou were the sun and moon to meI'll never get over you, you'll never get over me
I'm sorry babyYou were the sun and moon to meI'll never get over you, you'll never get over me

A whiter shade of pale

 



(*)  Reid / Brooker


First time, we got new album out, uhmYeah, thank you very much(One, two, three, four)
We skipped the light fandangoTurned cartwheels 'cross the floorI was feeling kinda seasickBut the crowd called out for moreThe room was humming harderAs the ceiling flew awayWhen we called out for another drinkThe waiter brought a tray
And so it was laterAs the miller told his taleThat her face at first just ghostlyTurned a whiter shade of pale
She said, "There is no reasonAnd the truth is plain to see"But I wandered through my playing cardsWould not let her beOne of 16 vestal virginsWe're leaving for the coastAnd although my eyes were openThey might have just as well been closed
And so it was that laterAs the miller told his taleThat her face at first just ghostlyTurned a whiter shade of pale
And so it was laterAs the miller told his taleThat her face, at first just ghostlyTurned a whiter shade of pale

Le métèque

 





(*) Georges Moustaki


Avec ma gueule de métèque, de juif errant, de pâtre grec et mes cheveux aux quatre ventsAvec mes yeux tout délavés qui me donnent l'air de rêver, moi qui ne rêve plus souventAvec mes mains de maraudeur, de musicien et de rôdeur qui ont pillé tant de jardinsAvec ma bouche qui a bu, qui a embrassé et mordu sans jamais assouvir sa faim
Avec ma gueule de métèque, de juif errant, de pâtre grec et mes cheveux aux quatre ventsAvec ma peau qui s'est frottée au soleil de tous les étés et tout ce qui portait juponAvec mon cœur qui a su faire souffrir autant qu'il a souffert sans pour cela faire d'histoiresAvec mon âme qui n'a plus la moindre chance de salut pour éviter le purgatoire
Avec ma gueule de métèque, de juif errant, de pâtre grec et mes cheveux aux quatre ventsJe viendrai ma douce captive, mon âme sœur, ma source vive, je viendrai boire tes 20 ansEt je serai prince de sang, rêveur ou bien adolescent comme il te plaira de choisirEt nous ferons de chaque jour toute une éternité d'amour que nous vivrons à en mourir
Et nous ferons de chaque jourToute une éternité d'amourQue nous vivrons à en mourir

Heaven

 



(*) Jim Vallance / Bryan Adams.


Oh, thinkin′ about all our younger years
There was only you and me
We were young and wild and free
Now, nothing can take you away from me
We've been down that road before
But that′s over now
You keep me comin' back for more


Baby, you're all that I want
When you′re lyin′ here in my arms
I'm findin′ it hard to believe
We're in heaven
And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
Isn′t too hard to see
We're in heaven


Oh, once in your life you find someone
Who will turn your world around
Bring you up when you′re feelin' down
Yeah, nothin' can change what you mean to me
Oh, there′s lots that I could say
Just hold me now
′Cause our love will light the way


And, baby, you're all that I want
When you′re lyin' here in my arms
I′m findin' it hard to believe
We′re in heaven
Yeah, love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven, yeah


I′ve been waitin′ for so long
For somethin' to arrive
For love to come alone
Now our dreams are comin′ true
Through the good times and the bad
Yeah, I'll be standin′ there by you, oh


And, baby, you're all that I want
When you′re lyin' here in my arms
I'm findin′ it hard to believe
We′re in heaven
And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
Isn't too hard to see
We′re in heaven, heaven, whoa-oh-oh


You're all that I want
You′re all that I need

Horizon red

 



(*) James Boore / Zoe Andrianni Kypri



Held me high the horizon redVision never ending, there in my mind you stayAnd I'm glad you doEvery night, every sky I seeThrough all of my transgressionsSometimes I couldn't feel you there with me
You shine like the sunBut it is dark when I am goneWatch as life unfoldsSo what is it without me?No, you won't forsake meTake me to a place where I am whole for onceYour only love
Held me high the horizon redVision never ending, there in my mind you stayAnd I'm glad you doEvery night, every sky I seeThrough all of my transgressionsSometimes I couldn't feel you there with me
You shine like the sunBut it is dark when I am goneWatch as life unfoldsSo what is it without me?No, you won't forsake meTake me to a place where I am whole for onceYour only love

Suzanne

 



(*) Ronson / Brenneck /  Hagstrom / Raye


Eyes are like the ocean (uh), her nails are painted green (uh)
Her cigarette in her mouth (uh) and she mouths
Hey, dear, how you been? (How you been?)
Grey skies out the window (uh), but she's a summer breeze (uh)
Come and set the tone, I dare, come and sit down next to me, Suzanne
Her hair hangs like curtains (uh), her smile is warm like gin (warm like gin)
She blinks in slow motion just like summer in the looney tunes, Looney Tunes
You can't tell if she's into you (uh), she's a winding road (winding road)
That I've been running on down since I was seven years old

Suzanne, I would love to hold you if I can (ooh-ooh)
Suzanne, Suzanne
If you'd allow my left arm and my right arm to collide inside the small of your back
Just like that
I need you (I need you), Suzanne (Suzanne)
Suzanne, how I need you
Ooh, you look so good tonight

Some time gives away to the magic, y'all (uh), sunset at the bar (uh)
You rest your left ear on my shoulder
And I wonder if that's just how you are (how you are)
I whisper to the waiter (uh)
A glass of summer strong
'Cause I'm about to finally tell you how I've feeling all along, Suzanne
Eyes are like the ocean (ocean)
Nails are painted green (painted green)
And I know this sounds like a lie
But I swear you're the prettiest that I've ever seen (ever seen)
Now, I can' tell you if you into me (into me)
So I'ma say it out loud (I'ma say it loud)
Things I never say, I should've said
I couldn't I guess I'm telling you now

Suzanne, I would love to hold you if I can (ooh-ooh)
Suzanne, Suzanne
If you'd allow my left arm and my right arm to collide inside the small of your back
Just like that
I need you (I need you), Suzanne (Suzanne)
Suzanne, how I need you
Ooh, you look so good tonight

And I want, and I want, and I want her
You look so good tonight
And I need her, and I need her, and I need her (Suzanne)
You look so good tonight
And I want her, and I need her, oh
So, so good, girl
Oh-oh
Things I never say, I should've said, I couldn't I guess I'm telling you now

Suzanne, I would love to hold you if I can (ooh-ooh)
Suzanne, Suzanne
If you'd allow my left arm and my right arm to collide inside the small of your back
Just like that
I need you (I need you), Suzanne (Suzanne)
Suzanne, how I need you (I wanna hold you if I can)
Ooh, you look so good tonight
