B i o g r a p h y The
story of vocalist Melody Gardot is as remarkable as any who perseveres against
abject adversity. Born in New Jersey in 1985, she took up piano and played as a
youngster on the nightclub scene of Philadelphia, influenced by jazz, folk,
rock, and pop music. At age 19 she was a fashion student at the Community
College of Philadelphia. But, on a fateful day, while riding her bicycle, the
driver of a Jeep made an illegal turn, hurtling into Gardot and leaving her in
the street for dead. As she lay hospitalized for months with multiple head
injuries and pelvic fractures, her love for music was the best therapy she could
receive. While in her hospital bed, she wrote and recorded songs that would
become the EP Some Lessons. Upon her eventual release from intensive care,
Gardot found the strength and determination to further her career as an artist.
Blessed with a beautiful voice and grand insight as a songwriter, her cognitive
powers slowly but surely became pronounced, leading to the independent recording
and release of her debut CD, Worrisome Heart, which was reissued in 2007 by the
Verve label. Her music could be described as a cross between Laura Nyro, Joni
Mitchell, Eva Cassidy, and Shania Twain, but goes deeper than mere pop
convention. Gardot is hypersensitive to light and noise, thus she wears dark
glasses, and uses a cane to walk. On-stage she requires a special seating unit,
and wears a Transcutaneous Electro-Nerve Stimulator, a TENS device, to assist in
alleviating her neuralgic muscle pain. As amazing as her story is, what is more
evident is that she possesses a blue style and persona that reflect not only her
afflictions, but conversely the hope and joy of making personalized music that
marks her as an individual and original. Though touring is difficult, she has
been performing in major cities on the East Coast to support her recordings. In
2009, working with producer Larry Klein and arranger Vince Mendoza -- both known
for their work with Joni Mitchell -- Gardot followed up her Verve debut with My
One and Only Thrill. Gardot returned in 2012 with her third studio album, The
Absence, featuring production from guitarist/composer Heitor Pereira. |

Worrisome heart
I need a hand
With my worrisome heart
I need a hand
With my worrisome heart
I would be lucky to find me a man
Who could love me the way that I am
With this here worrisome heart
I need a break
From my troubling ways
I need a break
From my troubling ways
I would be lucky to find me a man
Who could love me the way that I am
With all my troubling ways
I need a man
Who got no baggage to claim
I need a man
Who got no baggage to claim
I would be lucky to find me a man
Who could love me the way that I am
A worrisome, troubling, baggage free, modern day dame
A worrisome, troubling, baggage free, modern day dame
Ain't nobody the same
All That I
Need Is Love
Boys like to think they can have it all
Well they don't know they're still so small
All that they see is live is opportunity
Guys like to think they'll get any girl
That just one look, one quick twirl
That these acts alone will buy him a way into my home
No well they don't know, no they don't know
Well all that I'm dreaming of
They don't know you know that they don't know
That all that I need is love
So much of these times have been physical
Well all the love now where'd it go
Could it be my words are all together totally absurd
All of the men I know laugh at me
They don't listen, they can't see
I'm falling apart ‘cause no one will acknowledge my heart
No, no, no, they don't know, no they don't know
All that I'm dreaming of
They don't know, you know that they don't know
That all that I need is love
So I'll take my thoughts and just walk away
Well I've said all that I can say
But I'm still dreaming of
The day that I will find my love
The day that I will find my love
The day I will find my love
Gone
I won't wake up
To the sound of your feet
Walking down the hall
Like a soft heartbeat
I won't wake up
'Cause by the time that I do you'll be gone
I won't look back
On a past so long
I won't look back
On the things gone wrong
I won't look back
'Cause by the time that I do you'll be gone
I won't have words
I've said all that there is to say
I won't have words
'Cause I know you'll just throw them away
I won't have words
'Cause by the time that I do you'll be gone
By the time that I do you'll be gone
By the time that I do you'll be gone
Sweet
Memory
Sweet Memory
Talking about a sweet memory
It goes round and round in my head
Pretty soon I'll want the real thing instead
But for now I got this sweet memory
Sunny day, sunny day
Not a cloud crosses the sky
Not a tear comes to my eye
On this sunny day
Sweet Memory
Talking about a sweet memory
It goes round and round in my head
Pretty soon I'll want the real thing instead
But for now I got this sweet memory
Sweet Memory
Sweet Memory
Some
Lessons
Well I'm buckled up inside
A miracle that I'm alive
I do not think I can survive
On bread and wine alone
To think that I could have fallen
A centimeter to the left
Would not be here to see the sunset
Or have myself a time
Well why do the hands of time
So easily unwind
Some lessons we learn the hard way
Some lessons don't come easy
And that's the price we have to pay
Oh well some lessons we learn the hard way
They don't come right off and right easy
That's why they say some lessons learned
We learn the hard way
Remember the sound of the pavement
World turned upside down
City streets unlined and empty
Not a soul around
Life goes away in a flash
Right before your eyes
If I think real hard well I reckon
I've had some real good times
Why do the hands of time
So easily unwind
Some lessons we learn the hard way
Some lessons don't come easy
And that's the price we have to pay
Oh well some lessons we learn the hard way
They don't come right off and right easy
That's why they say some lessons learned
We learn the hard way
Quiet Fire
I'm burning up
Burning up quiet fire
Take, take my hand
Do with it what you will
I'm in dire need
'Cause all I want is somebody to love me like I do
Oh oh oh well
All I want is somebody to love me like I do
You walk away
Nothing left to say
But bye, bye blue eyes
And I, oh you know that I
No I, I, I don't understand, no
Cause all I want is somebody to love me like I do
Oh oh oh well
All I want is somebody to love me like I do
Well you can call me half crazy
Call me certifiably nuts
All for love
What do you get for letting me win so easily
Put up your dukes baby, what are you made of
This isn't right no, this isn't right
You know that I'm not one to fuss
But what have you done to me
You hardly make love to me now
Oh my poor hearts about to bust
Right out of its seams
'Cause all I want is somebody to love me like I do
Oh oh oh well
All I want is somebody to love me like I do
Burning up
Quiet fire
One Day
One day you will be mine
The clouds will part
The sun will shine
One day you will be mine
One day you will arise
To see the stars within my eyes
One day you will be mine
One day you will be mine
The clouds will part
The sun will shine
One day you will be mine
You will be mine
Love Me
Like A River Does
Love me like a river does
Cross the sea
Love me like a river does
Endlessly
Love me like a river does
Baby don't rush
You're no waterfall
Love me that is all
Love me like a roaring sea
Swirls about
Love me like a roaring sea
Wash me out
Love me like a roaring sea
Baby don't rush
You're no waterfall
Love me that is all
Love me like the earth itself
Spins around
Love me like the earth itself
Sky above below the ground
Love me like the earth itself
Baby don't rush
You're no waterfall
Love me that is all
Goodnite
Good night
Close your eyes and just
Sleep tight
I'll lie awake and watch you dream
To be sure whether all of your dreams are pure
My dear don't you worry about a thing
I'll be near to you all night
And through the evening
I'll be by your side
So good night
Close your eyes and just sleep tight
I'll lie awake and watch you dream
To be sure whether all of your dreams are pure
While you slumber in case you
Ever wonder if a summer breeze
Just brushed your cheek
Know it's me
And good night
Close your eyes and just
Sleep tight
I'll lie awake and watch you dream
To be sure whether all of your dreams are pure
Bonne nuit
Ferme tes yeux
Et juste reste ici
Je te regarde toute la nuit
Pendant toute la nuit
Baby I'm A Fool
How was I to know that this was always only just a little game to you
All the time I felt you gave your heart I thought that I would do the same for
you
Tell the truth I think I should have seen it coming from a mile away
When the words you say are
“Baby I'm a fool who thinks it's cool to fall in
love”
If I gave a thought to fascination I would know it wasn't right to care
Logic doesn't seem to mind that I am fascinated by the love affair
Still my heart would benefit from a little tenderness from time to time, but
never mind
‘Cause baby I'm a fool who thinks it's cool to fall in love
Baby I should hold on just a moment and be sure it's not for vanity
Look me in the eye and tell me love is never based upon insanity
Even when my heart is beating hurry up the moment's fleeting
Kiss me now, don't ask me how
‘Cause Baby I'm a fool who thinks it's cool to fall
Baby I'm a fool who thinks it's cool to fall
And I would never tell if you became a fool and fell in love
If the stars were mine
If the stars were mine
I'd give them all to you
I'd pluck them down right from the sky
And leave it only blue
I will never let the sun forget to shine upon your face
So when others would have rain clouds you'd have only sunny days
If the stars were mine
I'd tell you what I'd do
I'd put the stars right in a jar and give them all to you
If the birds were mine
I'd tell them when to sing
I'd make them sing a sonnet when your telephone would ring
I would put them there inside the square, whenever you went out
So there'd always be sweet music whenever you walk about
If the birds were mine
I'd tell you what I'd do
I'd teach the birds such lovely words and make 'em sing for you
I'd teach the birds such lovely words and make 'em sing for you
If the world was mine
I'd paint it gold and green
I'd make the oceans orange from a brilliant colour scheme
I will color all the mountains, make the sky forever blue
So the world would be a painting and I'd live inside with you
If the world was mine
I'd tell you what I'd do
I'd wrap the world in ribbons and then give it all to you
I'd teach the birds such lovely words and make 'em sing for you
I'd put those stars right in a jar and give them all to you
Who Will Comfort Me
My soul is wearying
My soul is wearying
My soul is wearying
I said my soul is wearying
My soul is wearying
Beating down from all of my misery yeah
Oh Lord who will comfort me
Gotta hold of my heart
Keeps me bound where the whole wide world is free yeah
Oh Lord who will comfort me
My home is a wreckage a family ground
Implied in poverty yeh
Oh Lord who will comfort me
Your
Heart Is As Black As Night
Your eyes may be whole
But the story I'm told
Is your heart is as black as night
Your lips may be sweet
Such that I can't compete
But your heart is as black as night
I don't know why it came along
In such a perfect time
But if I let you hang around
I'm bound to lose my mind
'Cause your hands may be strong
But the feelings's all wrong
Your heart is as black as night
I don't know why it came along
In such a perfect time
But if I let you hang around
I'm bound to lose my mind
'Cause your hands may be strong
But the feelings's all wrong
Your heart is as black
Your heart is as black
Oh your heart is as black as night
Love Undercover
I don't need anything more than I got
I'll make it simple when others may not
Whenever you need some company
Some love of a different kind
Come to your lover, undercover
And let me ease your mind
Whenever your heart beats heavy
And worry has catch you down
Come to your lover, undercover
And I will turn your mood around
Why you wanna leave when it's so easy just to stay
Lying wrapped up in my arms until the break of day
Undercover
Why you wanna leave when it's so easy just to stay
Lying wrapped up in my arms, until the break of day
So
Whenever you need a soft touch
Know my demands are small
Make me a lover, undercover
Or don't ever love me at all
Our love is easy
Deep within your heart, you know it's plain to see
Like Adam was to Eve, you were made for me
They say the poisoned vine breeds a finer wine
Our love is easy
If you ask me plainly I would gladly say
I'd like to have you round just for them rainy days
I like the touch of your hand, the way you make no demands
Our love is easy
Our love is easy
Like water rushing over stone
Oh, our love is easy, like no love I've ever known
Physically speaking we were made to last
Examine all the pieces of our recent past
There's your mouth of tears
Your hands around my waist
Our love is easy
Every time we meet it's like the first we kiss
Never growing tired of this endlessness
It's a simple thing, we don't need a ring
Our love is easy
Our love is easy
Like water rushing over stone
Oh, our love is easy, like no love I've ever known
Our love is easy
Like water rushing over stone
Oh, our love is easy, like no love I've ever known
Deep within your heart, you know it's plain to see
Like Adam was to Eve, you were made for me
They say the poisoned vine breeds a finer wine
Les étoiles, les étoiles, les
étoiles
Dites-moi étoile, pourquoi je vous regarde
Les étoiles, les étoiles, les étoiles
Dites-moi, étoile qui vous regardera
Les étoiles, les étoiles
Si seulement je savais
Dites-moi étoile de qui obtenez-vous la lumière
Les étoiles, les étoiles
Vous qui êtes belle dans les cieux
Dites-moi étoile, qui vous donnera l'amour
The stars, the stars shining up above
Tell me stars who will give you love
The stars, the stars lights of white and blue
Tell me stars why I look to you
The Rain
The rain
The rain
Rain came down in sheets that night
And you
And I
Stared out to the left and to the right
Rain came down in cords
Seemed to laugh at us ´til daylight
The clouds
The clouds
Clouds raised out across the autumn sky
And you
And I
Fumbled for a way to say goodbye
Strangers weren't we
Scared to look into each others eyes
My One And
Only Thrill
Birds may cease to spread their wings
But it don't matter
But it don't matter
When does May envelop spring
But it don't matter
But it don't matter
‘Cause when I'm with you
My whole world stands still
You're my one and only thrill
Ships may never leave the dock
But it don't matter
But it don't matter
Ticks may never hear a tock
But it don't matter
But it don't matter
‘Cause when I'm with you
My whole world stands still
You're my one and only thrill
Shores may never reach the tide
But it don't matter
But it don't matter
Buds may never open wide
But it don't matter
But it don't matter
‘Cause when I'm with you
My whole world stands still
You're my one and only thrill
You're my
You're my
You're my one and only thrill
Deep Within The
Corners Of My Mind
Deep within the corners of my mind
I keep a memory of your faces
And I only pull it out when I long for your embrace
Deep within the corners of my mind
I'm haunted by your smile
As it promises me joys like a journey to a tropic isle
It's not hard to see what you do to me
It's like a page right out of fist time wave
Though I try to fight it all the word you write
Leave me standing in the starry robe in some tragic lovers place
But deep within the corners of my mind
I'm praying secretly that eventually in time
There'll be a place for you and me
That eventually in time
There'll be a place for you and me
There'll be a place for you and me
Deep within the corners of my mind
Over
The Rainbow
(music by Harold Arlen and lyrics by E.Y. Harburg)
Somewhere, over the rainbow, way up high
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby
Somewhere, over the rainbow, skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true
Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops,
Away above the chimney tops that's where you'll find me
Somewhere, over the rainbow, bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow,
Why then, oh, why can't I
Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops,
Away above the chimney tops that's where you'll find me
Somewhere, over the rainbow, bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow,
Why then, oh, why can't I
Why then, oh, why can't I
Why then, oh, why can't I
If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh, why can't I
Mira
The felicidad that I hold in my heart
Is a pretty good start for us two
And if in the world there were only tristesse
I would find happiness in the blues
Mira, look at what you do to me
Mira, look at all the fantasy
Mira, this is such a lovely way to be
In all that I've seen, all the love that I need
Is the love that reminds me of you
In every smile there's a trace of the joy
That I feel like a sweet morning dew
Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy
paste is a sin
Mira, look at what you do to me
Mira, look at all the fantasy
Mira, this is such a lovely way to be
Mira, mira, mira
Ah mira, look at what you do to me
Mira, look at all the fantasy
Mira, this is such a lovely way to be
Cada día que creo poesía
Te recuerdo, anorando momento
De encontrarte y volver a besarte
Para darte un regalo perfecto
Aye delirio de sentirte en mis brazos
Recreando los momentos pasados
En el cuarto de un hôtel estrellado
Donde fuimos, un regalo divino
Un regalo divino, un regalo divino
Un regalo divino, un regalo divino
Un regalo divino, un regalo divino
Un regalo divino, un regalo divino
Mira, mira, mira voce
Amalia
Well, when you wake in the morning
Little eyes open wide
When there's no tender warning
No surprises, no surprise
Well maybe your wing might be broken
Maybe you're learning to fly
Well so am I
Amalia, finding the way out on the open road
Amalia, going whichever way the wind gonna go
Amalia, taking her chances on the open sea
Amalia, hoping the breeze is gonna carry me
Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy
paste is a sin
Maybe fate, maybe reason
Made you fall from the sky
Like the tides, like the seasons
Ever changing, you and I
So where do you go
When worry takes you
Where do you go
When somebody makes you cry
Amalia, finding the way out on the open road
Amalia, going whichever way the wind gonna go
Amalia, taking her chances on the open sea
Amalia, funny little bird hanging out with me
Oh, such a funny little bird hanging out with me
So Long
Don't wait up for me darling
I'm not coming home
Draw the blinds and set the alarm
'Cause I'm not coming home
In the morning you'll arise
With sadness in your eyes
'Cause I'll be gone
I'm moving on
Goodbye, so long
Every flower has faded to dust
I'm not coming home
Tears may fall
Your lashes may rust
But I'm not coming home
Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy
paste is a sin
Forever is on my mind
And I've just got to find
A place I belong
One I have known
Goodbye, so long
So long
So long
So long
So long
Every hour is drawn to a close
I'm not coming home
Wave goodbye so everyone knows
I'm not coming home
Goodbye, so long
So long
So We Meet
Again My Heartache
So we meet again my heartache
So we meet again my friend
I should have known that you'd return
The moment I was on the mend
So we meet again my heartache
Like two lovers torn apart
Bound together by the breaking
Of a tired and torrid heart
So we meet again my heartache
Just as leaves begin to change
How you've made my life a story
Filled with words you rearrange
Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy
paste is a sin
So we meet again my heartache
Come and join me in my pain
You're the reason I remember
Every sweet and sad refrain
So we meet again my heartache
Come and sit with me a while
Rest your head upon my shoulder
Hide your face beneath my smile
So we meet again my heartache
Over glass of stale red wine
I hope you'll join me in my toast, my ghoulish host
And maybe stay a while this time

This is an impossible love
The kind you only hear of in cinematic dreams
This is an impossible love
With syndromatic schemes
It's never just as lovely as it seems
Yes this is an impossible love
The flame in lust is inexhaustible love
And flames combust, we flames would be hand in glove
And why should two loves not agree, no
Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy
paste is a sin
This is an impossible love
Though both of your arms would offer a tender caress
It's such an exhaustible love
Fueling my heart with only illusion at best
C'est un jeu d'echecs
Aux gens que tu crois
Un jeu des fléchettes
Un mouvement dans l'obscurité
Vide de vérité
C'est une ligne qu'on ne peut pas voir
Un dessin dans l'air détruit mes espoirs
Un jeu de garçons
Auquel décidément, non, je dis non
Tes mains sur mes collants
Et tes yeux comme des enfants
Ta voix comme un orage d'été
Nos ténèbres, silhouettes
Adieu, sans regret
Tes mains sur mes collants
Et tes yeux comme des enfants
Ta voix comme un orage d'été
Nos ténèbres, silhouettes
Adieu, sans regret
This is an impossible love
This is an impossible love
This is an impossible love
This is an impossible love
If I Tell
You I Love You I'm Lying
There are so many things I could say, my love
Make you trip, so your lips would be mine
There are so many things I could do, my love
To convince you my love is divine
There are so many words I could tell you
There are so many moments in time
But I say 'fore we go to the land down below
If I tell you I love you, I'm lying
There are so many places to go, my love
There are so many places to find
There are so many worlds to explore, my love
There are so many stars yet to shine
Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy
paste is a sin
There are so many secrets to tell you
There are so many men on the line
But I say 'fore we go to the land down below
If I tell you I love you, I'm lying
I may be short of reason
To call you up next time
So if you like your women sweet, ah
Consider me your wine
I may be one for weekends to call you when you're flying
But if I ever utter I love you, honey I am lying
And if I look into your eyes and tell you "honey I am lying"
And if I ever whisper words unheard, such sultry words
Oh, je t'aime
Oh oui, je t'aime
Darling, I am lying
Goodbye
Goodnight was just a little word you learned
Somewhere somebody that you burned
Was all too happy with a lie
But love, you know you never got it right
I don't know why you say goodnight
You only mean to say goodbye
And I know you're quick to show your lover to the door
And you ain't never been in love before
You're only bound to get it wrong
Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy
paste is a sin
And I know you're just a victim of your circumstance
Of never knowing any real romance
And so we ought to say so long, goodbye
So long Goodbye
I know you're only trying to ease my mind
But I'm gonna lay it on the line, this time
You only need to say goodbye
Now Lord, you know you never got it right
I don't know why you say goodnight
You only mean to say goodbye
You only mean to say goodbye
You only mean to say goodbye
You only mean to say goodbye
Se Voce Me
Ama

Without you There is no life to live Without you There is no life to live, there is no Love If you love me, why don't you call me Do not hide in the silence of a silent flower In this afternoon which the moon already shows itself so naked Sea and wind, my torment, my loneliness Under the moon This light that is so yours Open sky from above is so deserted Two wrecked lovers in this sea of love So much love To get caress (To get your caress) I'm your bird (I'm your bird) I'll be flying not too high, sing to you If you love me Why don't you call me Here in my nest I sing alone without you Enchanted A mirage of nothing (of nothing) My open sky desert, open to fly More than anything "Sayonara", my love Without you x2 There is no life, life to live, there is no There is no life |
My Heart Won't Have It Any Other Way
You might be a lover
Always gone astray
But my heart
Won't have it any other way
And maybe I deserve this
Longing every day
'Cause my heart
Won't have it any other way
Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy
paste is a sin
If happiness is evidence
That fate is everywhere
Then why should I deny my chances
Of saying I don't care
Now reason don't remind me
Love ain't bound to stay
'Cause my heart
Won't have it any other way
No my heart
Won't have it any other way
Iemanja
White lady gone to the Southern sea
Why do you appear so suddenly
We want to honor your vanity
With little bitty boats set out on the sea
Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy
paste is a sin
E

E
Iemanja
E
Iemanja
I dream of days spent in Salvador
With my little darling forever more
Taking a walk along the shore
Feels like heaven's an open door
E
Iemanja
E
Iemanja
If I were to offer a plain perfume
And I were to honor the shining moon
As she sits so lonely upon the dune
Madre D'agna see you soon
E na Bahia Iemanja
E Baiana Iemanja...
I wanted to stay I gotta go but I'm coming back one day
I wanted to stay I gotta go but I'm coming back one day
I wanted to stay I gotta go but I'm coming back one day
Don't
Misunderstand
I'm okay how you come and go
I don't mind if you ebb and flow
River bound or a river stream
I don't question what the future means
Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy
paste is a sin
I said now

Trying to get it wrong

Every good man gone

If Ever I Recall Your
Face
Forget alll that's said and done
When your heart's a lonely one
And see my dear that heaven is a place
Whenever I recall your face
Life can be so lucky now
Some may win and others don't know how
But I could drop my losing hand with grace
Whenever I recall your face
Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy
paste is a sin
While leaving town you leave behind
The ones you love for who you find
But love no other arms could take your place
Whenever I recall your face
In the oceans of your eyes
Lies a look I recognise
A glance that leaves me dancing polonaise
Whenever I recall your
If ever I recall your face
Once I was loved
I don't remember when I was young
I don't recall the day when I first saw the sun
Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy
paste is a sin
But what I am certain
What is enough
Is just to remember that once
Once I was loved
I still surrender to troubles unknown
No use pretending
All the troubles ain't my own
But what I am certain
What is enough
Is just to remember that once
Once I was loved
After the years gone by
What amounts to the years in a life
What have we come to
When we reach our final days
If we can surrender
Then that is enough
Just to remember that once
Once we were loved
Once we were beautiful
Once we were loved
If we can surrender
Then that is enough
Just to remember that once
Once we were loved
Burying my Troubles
Burying my troubles
In another glass of wine
Swallowing my worries away
Bear in mind tomorrow
Is another day of sorrow
That only makes me think of yesterday
Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy
paste is a sin
So I'm burying my troubles
In another cup of gin
Throwing down like water on the road
Running over memories
Falling down upon my knees
And begging him to lift this heavy load
Still I know
I will find my happiness at last
Somewhere in the bottom of a bottle
Or a stone cut glass
Sleeping through the hours
Of a sunny summer day
Hiding from the brightest shades of light
Burying my eyes
Breathing deep and heavy sighs
For all the things in life that ain't gone right
Still I know
I will find my happiness at last
Somewhere in the bottom of a bottle
Of a stone cut glass
Still I know
I will find my happiness at last
Somewhere in the bottom of a bottle
Of a stone cut glass
If You Love Me
If you Love me let me know
Tell my heart which way to go
Come in close but come in slowly, now
If you love me let me know
Other hearts may fly away
But my hope is that you’ll stay
We’re two weary hearts aglow now
If you love me let me know
Once the moon should take her bow
Maybe you’ll find the words to say
Still I’ve often thought that words
Only would get into your way
So if you Love me let me know
Tell my heart which way to go
Come in close but come in slowly, now
If you love me let me know
Once the moon should take her bow
Maybe you’ll find the words to say
Still I’ve often thought that words
Only would get into your way
So if you Love me let me know
Tell my heart which way to go
Come in close but come in slowly, now
If you love me let me know
If you love me let me know
If you love me let me know
C'est Magnifique
(feat. António Zambujo)
Oh what a beautiful dream
Oh what a beautiful scene
C'est magnifique
Tropical waters serene
Colors of coral and cream
C'est magnifique
Magnifique
Eu tava lá
Eu tava lá
Eu tava lá
Só você não viu
Meu sol cair no mar
Eu tava lá
Eu tava lá
Eu tava lá
Só você não viu
Eu só cair no mar
Cair no mar
Cair no mar
Cai nu no mar
Folhas of infinite green
Terra de aquamarine
C'est magnifique
Dama da Noite, Jasmim
Perfume que mora em mim
C'est magnifique
Magnifique
Eu tava lá
Eu tava lá
Eu tava lá
Só você não viu
Meu sol cair no mar
Eu tava lá
Eu tava lá
Eu tava lá
Só você não viu
Eu só cair no mar
Cair no mar
Caí no mar
Caí nú no mar
There where he lives in Me
There where he lives in me
There in the air I breathe
Like a river that runs through my heart how it seems
That my love he’s a weaver of all my most infinite dreams
There where he lives in me
Amizade e amigo d’amour
In this beauty of silence
With the moon here beside me
How she takes off her white dress
Just to pass you her beauty
There where all our tears are just from laughter
There we are always together
Even when he’s gone forever
There where he lives in me
There where he lives in me
In this beauty of silence
With the moon here beside me
How she takes off her white dress
Just to pass you her beauty
There where all our tears are just from laughter
There we are always together
Even when he’s gone forever
There where he lives in me
There where he lives in me
Love Song
(Barry White)
The words I have to say
May be simple, but they're true
Until you give your love
There's nothing more that we can do
Love is the opening door
Love is what we came here for
No one could offer you more
Do you know, what I mean
Have your eyes really seen
Do you know, what I mean
Have your eyes really seen
You say it's very hard
To live behind the life we knew
But there's no other way
And now it's really up to you
Love is the opening door
Love is what we came here for
No one could offer you more
Do you know, what I mean
Have your eyes really seen
Do you know, what I mean
Have your eyes really seen
The words I have to say
May be simple, but they're true
Until you give your love
There's nothing more that we can do
You Won't
Forget Me
(Carly Simon)
You won't forget me
Though you may try
I'm part of memories
Too wonderful to die
And it will happen
That now and then
You'll fall to wondering
If we shouldn't have tried again
You won't forget me
On nights like this
The moon will cast upon you
The shadow of my kiss
No matter where you are
With whom you are
You'll think of me
You won't forget me
You won't forget me
On nights like this
The moon will cast upon you
The shadow of my kiss
No matter where you are
With whom you are
You'll think of me
You won't forget me
Just wait and see
You won't forget me
Sunset In The Blue
When I think back on all the roads
We've traveled on
It makes me smile
Although I do tend to forget
Your cadent eyes
After a while
Another dream begins to fray
So my love another day
Another sun sets in the blue
Oh my love what can we do
To stop it all
When I look back on all the tears
That you've shed
I wonder why
You can't consider all the years
That lie ahead of you and I
Another dream begins to fray
So my love another day
Another sun sets in the blue
Oh my love what can we do
To stop it all
Another dream begins to die
So my love another time
Another sun sets in the blue
So my love what can we do
To stop it all
Um Beijo
Tantas vezes minha mao era um espelho
Vagabunda caminhado como um velho
Tantas vezes iemanja era o canto
Flore de quaresmeira cor de amaranto
Tantas veszes procurando meu destino
Tantas veszes perguntando no caminho
Tantas vezes uma pedra nas correntes
“Ser mulher com um colar desse sementes”
Mas Eu
Tava esperando
Alguém pra amar
Alguém pra me dar um beijo
Eu, passaro sem par
Tava esperando
Alguém pra amar
Tantas vezes casaram sem aliança
Tantas vezes esperança de criança
Tanta poesia foi no pergaminho
Tantas veszes "pra você e com carinho"
Tantas vezes viu o vastidão do mar
Na areia traços finos de um par
Tantas vezes vagueando na beleza
Tantas vezes navigando na tristeza
Mas Eu
Tava esperando
Alguém pra amar
Alguém pra me dar um beijo
Eu, passaro sem par
Tava esperando
Alguém pra amar
Eu
Tava esperando
Alguém pra amar
Alguém pra me dar um beijo
Eu, passaro sem par
Tava esperando
Alguém pra amar
Me dar
Um beijo
Me dar
Um beijo
Niguém, Niguém
Saudade vem
Vem me abraçar
Eu não quero amar ninguém, ninguém
Saudade vai
Deixa eu descansar
Já não quero amar ninguém, ninguém
Saudade deixa ele esquecer que quis amar
Saudade vem
Eu deixei lá
Toda tua inquietação
Eu deixei lá
Dilacerado coração
Eu deixei lá
Um beijo
E deixei lá tua mão
Eu Deixei lá
Não guardo na memória, cara
Eu Deixei lá
Toda essa história
E eu Deixei lá
E dói
Mas Deixei lá
Já foi
Saudade vem
Vem me abraçar
Eu não quero amar ninguém, ninguém
Saudade vai
Deixa eu descansar
Já não quer amar ninguém, ninguém
Saudade deixa meu amor aonde està
Saudade vem
Deixei pra là
O peso no meu coração
Deixei pra là
O gosto da ingratidão
Deixei pra lá
Sua frieza
Deixei pra lá
Triste beleza
Deixei pra trás
Todo medo se desfaz
Deixei pra trás
Meu caminho é de paz
Fechei teu olhar tristonho
Fechei mais outro sonho
Saudade vem
Vem me abraçar
Pois não quero amar ninguém, ninguém
Saudade vai
Deixa eu descansar
Já não quer amar ninguém, ninguém
Saudade deixa ele esquecer que quis amar
Quero esquecer e dessa vez não volto atrás
Porquê meu pobre coração não aguenta mais
Saudade vem
From Paris With Love
Lovers tucked into a quiet cafe
Sat beneath a shade of red
They fall in love like falling out of bed
Half a silhouette of passer-bys
Half a glass within my hand
Drink to life as if there is no end
Maybe one day I will see you
Maybe one day I will see you soon
With love, my love
A kiss beneath the moon
River waking to the morning light
Lazy boats around the bend
Shimmers once or twice to move this pen
Beauty fades before the mirrors when
Beauty knocks upon your door
Life is leading us to something more
Maybe one day I will see you
Maybe one day I will see you soon
With love, my love
A kiss beneath the moon
Maybe one day I will see you
Maybe one day I will see you soon
With love, my love
A kiss beneath the moon
With love, my love
A kiss beneath the moon
Lovers tucked into a quiet cafe
Sat beneath a shade of red
They fall in love like falling out of bed
Ave Maria
Ave Maria they tell me
Married but never a ring
Ave Maria they tell me
Ave Maria they sing. (They sing)
Even if I were to wonder
What could I say for my youth
Pivotal moments of blunder
What is the meaning of truth? (Of truth)
Follow the road and you’ll find me
Follow the way and you’ll see
Gathering thoughts should remind me
Nothing’s as plain as it seems (it seems)
This covenant causes me crisis
Curious minds would agree
All of this talk of our vices
When is a mind to be free? (be free)
Moon River
(Jerry Butler)
Moon River
Wider than a mile
I'm crossing you
In style some day
Old dream maker
You heart breaker
Wherever you're going
I'm going your way
Two drifters
Off to see the world
There's such a lot of world to see
We're after
The same rainbow's end
Waiting 'round the bend
My huckleberry friend
Moon River and me
Two drifters
Off to see the world
There's such a lot of world to see
We're after
The same rainbow's end
Waiting 'round the bend
My huckleberry friend
Moon River and me
I Fall in Love Too Easily
(Sammy Cahn)
I fall in love too easily
I fall in love too fast
I fall in love too terribly hard
For any love to last
My heart should be well-schooled
'Cause I've been fooled in the past
But still I fall in love too easily
I fall in love too fast
My heart should be well-schooled
'Cause I've been fooled in the past
But still I fall in love too easily
I fall in love too fast
Little Something
(Feat. Sting)
We could be a little something
I'll be everything you wanted
I could bring you real comfort
Give you a break from loving
I'm trying more than just a little
I wanna meet you in the middle
Reading you is like a riddle
I really wanna figure you out
Don't you worry what you're gonna lose
In the heat of the moment
We're rushing into something new
But we're keeping it focused
Don't call me lover
Stop thinking 'bout it, thinking 'bout it
I'm not the others
We could keep it simple as
La di da di da
We could keep it simple as
Don't call me lover
Stop thinking 'bout it, thinking 'bout it
We could be a little something
The melody you keep on humming
A feeling so sweet and subtle
A last piece to your puzzle
I know you're gonna feel like running
Wouldn't give my love for nothing
I'll be everything you wanted
Tell you that I won't let you down
Don't you worry what you're gonna lose
In the heat of the moment
We're rushing into something new
But we're keeping it focused
Don't call me lover
Stop thinking 'bout it, thinking 'bout it
I'm not the others
We could keep it simple as
La di da di da
We could keep it simple as
Don't call me lover
Stop thinking 'bout it, thinking 'bout it
We could be a little something
We could be a little something
We could be a little something
We could be a little something
Don't call me lover
Stop thinking 'bout it, thinking 'bout it
I'm not the others
We could keep it simple as
La di da di da
We could keep it simple as
Don't call me lover
Stop thinking 'bout it, thinking 'bout it
Trav'lin' Light
I'm trav'lin' light
'Cause my love has gone
So from now on
I'm trav'lin' light
He said goodbye
And took my heart away
So from today
I'm trav'lin' light
No one to see
I'm free as the breeze
Nobody but me
And my memories
Some lucky night
Maybe he'll return again
But until then
I'm trav'lin' light
No one to see
I'm free as the breeze
Nobody but me
And my memories
Some lucky night
Maybe he'll return again
But until then
I'm trav'lin' light
What Is
This Thing Called Love
(Cole Porter)
What is this thing called love
This funny thing called love
Just who can solve its mystery
Why should it make a fool of me
I saw you there that wonderful day
You took my heart and threw it away
That's why I ask the Lord in Heaven above, hey Lord, man
What is this thing called love
What is this thing called love
This funny thing called love
Just who can solve its mystery
Why should it make a fool of me
I saw you there that wonderful day
You took my heart and went and threw it away
That's why I ask the Lord in Heaven above, hey Lord, man
What is this thing called love
What is this thing
Oh Lord
What is this thing called love
Entre eux deux
This
Foolish Heart Could Love You
This foolish heart could love you
This foolish heart could oh so easily fall
For in the instant that our eyes should ever happen to intertwine
Or should your hand fall ever sweetly
Into the precipice of mine
Take care with all the words you tell me
Take care with what your eyes may seem to say
You know poetry and prose are far too easy to compose
And then I'll start believing there's the slightest chance
For some romance
For this foolish heart
Wonderous is what the moment brings
Wonderful, the song the songbird sings
But even though it's wonderful
The evening there, yeah, I should know
There is about to be an end to everything I see
For no sheer amount of moonlight
No sheer amount of stars that shine above
Could sweetly cast a light upon your face
Or ever offer an embrace
This story ends as only friends
With such a foolish heart
What Of
Your Eyes
Look at the way all the stars intertwine
Like a kiss from your lips
If only you were mine
Heaven can resign for
Only heaven knows what I've been dreaming
Darling
What of your eyes?
What do they tell me?
Do they sing lullabies or aim just to expel me
What of your lips
The sweetest kiss
Was I too bold to resist
I admit I got lost in your iris
And what of the way
Our hands should mar the time
What of your eyes
Like stars that shine
And what of the dream
That we've been dreaming
Don't you agree that a dream is only ever made for achieving
What of the way
You made me sigh
Was I too bold to believe, to conceive in a future for you and I
And what of the way
Our limbs should intertwine
What of your eyes
Like stars that shine
Est-ce qu'on deviendrait des vrais amants
Ou sommes-nous juste des étoiles filantes
Plus Fort Que Nous
Avec notre passé pour guide
On se devrait d'être lucide
Mais notre méfiance est à bout
L'amour est bien plus fort que nous
Qu'on espère ou qu'on se résigne
Quand il le veut, il nous désigne
Voilà, ça devait être à nous
L'amour est bien plus fort que nous
Quand tu es près de moi, qu'y faire ?
Le temps s'habille de mystère
Et le vent du soir est plus doux
L'amour est bien plus fort que nous
Vivre libre en un marécage
Ou vivre heureux dans une cage
Qu'importe, il fait son choix sans nous
L'amour est bien plus fort que nous
On croyait qu'il pourrait suffire
Pour ne plus aimer de le dire
Pourtant ça devait être à nous
L'amour est bien plus fort que nous
Avec notre passé pour guide
On croyait qu'il pourrait suffire
On se devrait d'être lucide
Pour ne plus aimer de le dire
Mais notre méfiance est à bout
Voilà, ça devait être à nous
L'amour est bien plus fort que nous
À La Tour
Eiffel
Les gens s'embrassent sur les terrasses
Et se baladent main dans la main
Au coin des lèvres c'est un peu mièvre
Tout semble donc un peu cliché
À mon avis Paris est fait pour s'embrasser
Mais où trouver le vrai baiser ?
À la Concorde et aux Tuileries
La roue qui tourne, ça vit, ça rit
Puis sur les quais de Notre-Dame
On entend encore Padam, Padam
Mais si l'on cherche une romance encore plus belle
On va s'embrasser à la Tour Eiffel
Quand on s'enlace, quand on s'embrasse,
Ça rend heureux, ça nous réjouit
Mais nos baisers sont sublimés
Lorsque l'on a l'endroit parfait
Tes lèvres sur les miennes allument une étincelle
Pour s'embrasser, pour s'embrasser, alors allons-y
On va s'embrasser, à la Tour Eiffel, sous la Tour Eiffel, autour de la Tour
Eiffel
Fleurs Du Dimanche
J'aime les histoires d'amour avant d'aller me coucher
Et quand tu viens m'embrasser
Mais le matin, faut pas me réveiller
Moi, Je préfère la nuit au jour mais ça tu le sais
Quand tu me laisses un mot ça me plaît bien
Mais surtout pas de fleurs Dimanche matin
Sans que ça te donne un feeling de chagrin
C'est simplement que je suis une femme de scène
Avant midi les sonneries me gênent
Comprends-moi bien j'aime tellement que tu oses
Mais quand je rêve, je rêve d'autre chose
Comme par exemple
J'aime quand on dort nous deux enlacés
Et quand on passe le temps à se perdre dans des milliers des baisers
Mais le matin, 'faut pas me réveiller
Si quelqu'un sonne
Je ne vais pas répondre
Alors garde tes fleurs
Pour quelques jours après
Et ne prends pas mal
Tout ce que je disais
J'aime bien tes belles, tes beaux, tes fabuleux bouquets
Mais vaux mieux qu'on se retrouve en fin fin fin de soiree
Alors appelle-moi à 15 heures si tu le veux bien
Fais ce que tu veux mec, mais écoute-moi bien
Surtout pas de fleurs le Dimanche matin
Non, non, ne me réveillez pas pour des fleurs le Dimanche matin
Samba Em Prelúdio (Un Jour Sans Toi)
Eu sem você
Não tenho porquê
Porquê sem você
Não sei nem chorar
Sou chama sem luz
Jardim sem luar
Luar sem amor
Amor sem se dar
Eu sem você
Sou só desamor
Um barco sem mar
Um campo sem flor
Tristeza que vai
Tristeza que vem
Sem você meu amor eu não sou ninguém
Un jour sans toi
Ce n'est qu'un pourquoi
Les oiseaux sans voix
Les fleurs sans éclats
Le ciel sans lumière
Abeille solitaire
Printemps sans parfum
L'amour, un mot vain
Un jour sans toi
Chaos de pourquoi
Un vœu sans retour
Des rêves d'amour
Tristeza que vai
Tristeza que vem
Sem você, meu amor
Eu não sou ninguém
Un jour sans toi
Ah que saudade
Ce n'est qu'un pourquoi
Les oiseaux sans voix
Que vontade de ver renascer
Les fleurs sans éclats
Nossa vida
Le ciel sans lumière
Volta querida
Abeille solitaire
Os meus braços precisam dos seus
Printemps sans parfum
Teus abraços precisam
L'amour, un mot vain
Dos meus
Un jour sans toi
Estou tão
Chaos de pourquoi
Sozihno tenho
Un vœu sans retour
Tenho os olhos cansados de olhar
Des rêves d'amour
Para o além
Tristeza que vai
Vem ver
Tristeza que vem
A vida
Sem você, meu amor
Eu não sou ninguém
Sem você, meu amor
Eu não sou ninguém
Sem você, meu amor
Eu não sou ninguém
Perhaps
You'll Wonder Why
Perhaps you'll wonder why you'll never see my face again
But now and then you'll find the ending fairly fine
Words without regard would often make the moment harder
Than we wanted but then again somewhere we had to draw the line
A letter left beside the bed
That tells story love is dead
Yet crying over endings is absurd
For no one makes a promise without knowing it could break
And what a grave mistake to have this promise heard
Laughter through the tears is all we have throughout the years
When all the words we've ever heard are only blue
Every now and then we see that even seasons end
But of their endings bring the dawning of the new
A letter left
Beside the bed
That tells the story love is dead
Yet crying over endings is absurd
For no one makes a promise without knowing it could break
And what a grave mistake to have this promise heard
Laughter through the tears is all we have throughout the years
When all the words we've ever heard are only blue
Every now and then we see that even seasons end
But of their endings bring the dawning of the new
Ode To Every Man
I could feel the comfort in your arms
The dwindling dying part of me
Refreshed
Aware
Awakened
Alive as if a flower
Unfolding in the dark
A bloom plucked from her branch
Merciless
Abandoned
Discovered
Opening there within your hands
As they ran from end to end
And of my merciless sadness
And of my ever-ruined veins
Beat by beat
Throbbing once more in remembrance
Of a long-forgotten dance
To dust off my valances
My balances
In my discretion
Your hands were my direction
And they led me to myself
There within your arms
I thought I can outlive myself
I can live forever
Eternally embraced
For the lines that make your face
Trace the shadows upon my brow
And now and then I see you
There inside my mind
In the deepest darkest part of me
It's great love that I find
For love in masses
Or love in drops
Fills my shallow pool
A dry and dying desert
A century of hurt
A body bound to fall to pieces
There within the dirt
Your love the only reason
That love's my only rule
As what love has in seasons
Aye, its treason is its jewel
I needed you in moments
Where I knew no sense of worth
Where tears would be the rain
Blood the soil
Body, earth
Sadness has become
The inner workings of the mechanism
That is my barely beating heart
A complied fracture of bones
Take the shape of my ribs
And sorrow, sorrow alone
The liquid formula of my swollen veins
I am alone in my loneliness
Not forgotten nor cast out
But chosen to be one who is both with
And then without
Darling Fare
Thee Well
Oh, my love
What is this bitter taste
Where is that warm embrace I loved
I thought that I had found
Oh, my love
What happened to your heart
Weren't you the one who started up
This fire in my veins
What of us remains
What's waiting 'round the bend
When I see your eyes, I see the nearing ending
Of our love
What once was all we had
The thing that made me glad to wake
Well, now my poor heart breaks
What of us remains
What's waiting 'round the bend
When I see your eyes, I see the nearing ending
Oh, my love
I loved you very well
But now I see your eyes are crying
So darling, fare thee well
Ain't no sunshine
( Bill Withers Cover / Live )
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
It's not warm when he's away
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
And he's always gone too long
Any time he goes away
Wonder this time where he's gone
Wonder if he's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime he goes away
And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
Lord you better leave that thing alone
But ain't no sunshine, no oh, when he's gone
And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
Lord you better leave that thing alone
Still ain't no sunshine, oh, when he's gone
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
Ain't no sunshine
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
Bye Bye
Blackbird
( Henderson-Dixson / Bye Bye Blackbird EP )
Pack up all my care and woe
Here I go, feeling low
Bye bye blackbird
Where somebody waits for me
Sugar's sweet, so is he
Bye bye blackbird
No one seems to love or understand me
Oh the hard luck stories they just hand to me
Make my bed and light the light
I'll be coming home tonight
Bye bye blackbird
No one seems to love or understand me
Oh the hard luck stories they just hand to me
Where somebody shine the light
I'll be coming home tonight
Bye bye blackbird
Blackbird, bye bye
C'est
trop tard
(Barbara / Elles et Barbara LP)
C'est trop tard pour verser des larmes
Maintenant qu'ils ne sont plus là
Trop tard, retenez vos larmes
Trop tard, ils ne les verront pas
Car c'est du temps de leur vivant
Qu'il faut aimer ceux que l'on aime
Car c'est du temps de leur vivant
Qu'il faut donner à ceux qu'on aime
Ils sont couchés dessous la terre
Dans leurs maisons froides et nues
Où n'entrera plus la lumière
Où plus rien ne pénètre plus
Que feront-ils de tant de fleurs
Maintenant qu'ils ne sont plus là
Que feront-ils de tant de fleurs
De tant de fleurs à la fois
Alliez-vous leur porter des roses
Du temps qu'ils étaient encore là
Alliez-vous leur porter des roses
Ils auraient préféré, je crois
Que vous sachiez dire je t'aime
Que vous leur disiez plus souvent
Ils auraient voulu qu'on les aime
Du temps, du temps de leur vivant
Les voilà comme des statues
Dans le froid jardin du silence
Où les oiseaux ne chantent plus
Où plus rien n'a plus d'importance
Plus jamais ils ne verront la mer
Plus jamais le soir qui se penche
Les grandes forêts en hiver
L'automne rousse dans les branches
Mais nous n'avons que des regrets
Mais nous n'avons que des remords
Mais ils ne le sauront jamais
Ils n'entendent plus, c'est trop tard
C'est trop tard
C'est trop tard
C'est trop tard
Caravan
( Duke Ellington Cover / live )
Night and stars above that shine so bright
The mystery of their fading light
That shines upon our caravan
Oh sleep upon my shoulder as we creep
Across the sands so I may keep
The memory of our caravan
This is so exciting
You are so inviting
Resting in my arms
As we thrill to the magic charms
So you beside me here beneath the blue
I dream of love is coming true
Inside a desert caravan
This is so exciting
You are so inviting
Resting in my arms
As we thrill to the magic charms
Oh you, and you and you and you
Beside me here beneath the blue
I dream of love is coming true
Inside a desert caravan
A caravan, a caravan, a caravan
La chanson des
vieux amants
(Brel Cover / Ces Gens-là LP)
Bien sûr, nous eûmes des orages
Vingt ans d'amour, c'est l'amour fol
Mille fois tu pris ton bagage
Mille fois je pris mon envol
Et chaque meuble se souvient
Dans cette chambre sans berceau
Des éclats des vieilles tempêtes
Plus rien ne ressemblait à rien
Tu avais perdu le goût de l'eau
Et moi celui de la conquête
Mais mon amour
Mon doux, mon tendre, mon merveilleux amour
De l'aube claire jusqu'à la fin du jour
Je t'aime encore, tu sais, je t'aime
Moi, je sais tous tes sortilèges
Tu sais tous mes envoûtements
Tu m'as gardé de piège en piège
Je t'ai perdue de temps en temps
Bien sûr tu pris quelques amants
Il fallait bien passer le temps
Il faut bien que le corps exulte
Mais finalement, finalement
Il nous fallut bien du talent
Pour être vieux sans être adultes
Mon amour
Mon doux, mon tendre, mon merveilleux amour
De l'aube claire jusqu'à la fin du jour
Je t'aime encore, tu sais, je t'aime
Et plus le temps nous fait cortège
Et plus le temps nous fait tourment
Mais n'est-ce pas le pire piège
Que vivre en paix pour des amants
Bien sûr tu pleures un peu moins tôt
Je me déchire un peu plus tard
Nous protégeons moins nos mystères
On laisse moins faire le hasard
On se méfie du fil de l'eau
Mais c'est toujours la tendre guerre
Oh, mon amour
Mon doux, mon tendre, mon merveilleux amour
De l'aube claire jusqu'à la fin du jour
Je t'aime encore, tu sais, je t'aime
Hmm, mon amour
Mon doux, mon tendre, mon merveilleux amour
De l'aube claire jusqu'à la fin du jour
Je t'aime encore, tu sais, je t'aime
Cry Wolf
(Some Lessons -The Bedroom Sessions EP)
You come off like a white knight
Always honest always right
You come off like a brave soul
Truthful and noble
And then you go
And lie to me, lie to me
Make me promises you can't keep
Lie to me, lie to me
Why you always lie to me
Every time that we speak
I get dizzy I get weak
You don't know the things you say
You're quick to talk then walk away
And lie to me, lie to me
Make me promises you can't keep
Lie to me, lie to me
Why you always lie to me
You're always telling lies
You're always telling lies
Lie to me, lie to me
Make me promises you can't keep
Lie to me, lie to me
Why you always lie to me

Dans les rues
Dans les rues
Dans les rues
Dans les rues
Dans les rues
Dans les rues
Dans, dans, dans les rues
Down my avenue
The sun don't shine on the street
Down my avenue
All the people walking drag their feet
Down my avenue
Everyone you meet is full of gloom
And the shade on their face
Is one of unpending doom
Let me tell you now
You don't know what it's like unless you live here
You don't know what it's like unless you live here
All I wanna do is just to scream and shout into their ears
Hey people why do you think it's all right to go and hurt me
Down my avenue
Everybody tells you how it is
Things like he ran to her house and she snuck on back into his
Down my avenue
Everybody 's got a story to tell
But the fact of the matter is nobody knows it too well
Let me tell you now
You don't know what it's like unless you live here
You don't know what it's like unless you live here
All I wanna do is just to scream and shout into their ears
Hey people why do you think it's all right to go and hurt me
Why, why
Dans les rues, dans les rues
Dans les rues, dans les rues
Dans les rues, dans les rues
Dans les rues, dans les rues
Let me tell you know
You don't know what it's like unless you live here
You don't know what it's like unless you live here
All I wanna do is just to scream and shout into their ears
Hey people why do you think it's all right to go and
Why do you think it's all right
Why do you think it's all right
Why do you think it's all right
To go and hurt me
Four Women
(Nina Simone cover / Round Nina LP)
My skin is black
My arms are long
My hair is woolly
And I know my back is strong
Strong enough to take the pain
Down and down again
What do they call me
What do they call me
My name is Aunt Sarah
My skin is yellow
My hair is long
Between two worlds
I do belong
And my father was rich and white
He forced my mother late one night
What do they call me
My name is Saffronia
My skin is tan
My hair is fine
My hips invite you
My mouth like wine
Whose little girl am I
Anybody who's got money to buy
What do they call me
What do they call me
My name is Sweet Thing
Sweet Thing
My skin is brown
And my manner is tough
I'll kill the first mother I see
My life has been too rough
I'm awfully bitter these days
Because my parents were slaves
What do they call me
What do they call me
What do they call me
Oh my name is Peaches
My name is Sweet Thing
Oh you're such a sweet thing, yeah
Saffronia
Get Out Of Town
(Cole Porter Cover / Bye Bye Blackbird EP)
Get out of town
Before it's too late my love
Get out of town
Be good to me please
Why wish me harm
Why not retire to a farm
And be contented to charm
The birds off the trees
Just disappear
I care for you much too much
And when you're near, close to me dear
We touch too much
The thrill when we meet is so bittersweet
That darling, it's getting me down
So on your mark get set
Get out of town
Just disappear
I care for you much too much
And when you're near, close to me dear
We touch too much
The thrill when we meet is so bittersweet
That darling, it's getting me down
So on your mark get set
Get out of town
Hard Times
(Ray Charles Cover / Live)
My mother told me
'Fore she passed away
Said darling when I'm gone
Don't forget to pray
'Cause there'll be hard times
Hard times
Who knows better than I
Well I soon found out
Just what she meant
I had to sell all my clothes
Just to pay the rent
Talkin' 'bout hard times
Hard times
Who knows better than I
I had a man
Who was always around
When I lost my money
He put me down
Talkin' 'bout hard times
Hard times
Who knows better than I
Lord, one of these days
There'll be no more sorrow
'Cause I pass away
There'll be no more hard times
Hard times
Who knows, baby
And who knows better than I
He's
a Tramp
(Jazz Loves Disney)
Hmm, what a dog, baby
What a dog
He's a tramp, but they love him
Breaks a new heart every day
He's a tramp, they adore him
And I only hope he'll stay that way
He's a tramp, he's a scoundrel
He's a rounder, he's a cad
He's a tramp, but I love him
Yes, and even I have got it pretty bad
You can never tell when he'll show up
He gives you plenty of trouble
I guess he's just a no-count pup
But I wish that he were double
He's a tramp, he's a rover
And there's nothing more to say
If he's a tramp, he's a good one
And I wish that I could travel his way
You can never tell when he'll show up
He gives you plenty of trouble
I guess he's just a no-count pup
But I wish that he were double
He's a tramp, he's a rover
And there's nothing more to say
If he's a tramp, he's a good one
And I wish that I could travel his way
I wish that I could travel his way
I wish that I could travel his way
If I'm
Lucky
(Eddie Delange/Joseph Myrow - Charlie Haden Sophisticated Ladies LP)
If I'm lucky
You will tell me that you care
That we'll never be apart
If I'm lucky
This will be no light affair
It's forever, from the start
If I'm lucky
There'll be moonbeams all around
Shining bright as day
You will hold my hand
And you'll understand
All I cannot seem to say
If I am lucky
There will be a time and place
You will kiss me
We'll embrace
In that moment
Every wishful dream I ever knew
Will come true
If I'm lucky
I will go through the years with you
If I'm lucky
You will tell me that you care
That we'll never be apart
If I'm lucky
This will be no light affair
It's forever, from the start
If I'm lucky
There'll be moonbeams all around
Shining bright as day
You will hold my hand
And you'll understand
All I cannot seem to say
If I am lucky
There will be a time and place
You will kiss me
We'll embrace
In that moment
Every wishful dream I ever knew
Will come true
If I'm lucky
I will go through the years with you
I will go through the years with you
J'attendrai
(Melody Gardot Feat. Ibrahim Maalouf)
J'attendrai le jour et la nuit
J'attendrai toujours ton retour
J'attendrai car l'oiseau qui s'enfuit
Vient chercher l'oubli dans son nid
Le temps passe et court
En battant tristement
Dans mon coeur si lourd
Et pourtant j'attendrai ton retour
J'attendrai le jour et la nuit
J'attendrai toujours ton retour
J'attendrai car l'oiseau qui s'enfuit
Vient chercher l'oubli dans son nid
Le temps passe et court
En battant tristement
Dans mon coeur si lourd
Et pourtant j'attendrai ton retour
Le vent m'apporte des bruits lointains
Guettant ma porte j'écoute en vain
Hélas plus rien, plus rien ne vient
J'attendrai le jour et la nuit
J'attendrai toujours ton retour
J'attendrai car l'oiseau qui s'enfuit
Vient chercher l'oubli dans son nid
Le temps passe et court
En battant tristement
Dans mon coeur si lourd
Et pourtant j'attendrai ton retour
Et pourtant j'attendrai ton retour
Et pourtant j'attendrai ton retour
La Javanaise
(Serge Gainsbourg Cover / Andre Manoukian feat.
Melody Gardot)
J'avoue j'en ai bavé pas vous
Mon amour
Avant d'avoir eu vent de vous
Mon amour
Ne vous déplaise
En dansant la Javanaise
Nous nous aimions
Le temps d'une chanson
À votre avis qu'avons-nous vu
De l'amour
De vous à moi vous m'avez eu
Mon amour
Ne vous déplaise
En dansant la Javanaise
Nous nous aimions
Le temps d'une chanson
Hélas avril en vain me voue
À l'amour
J'avais envie de voir en vous
Cet amour
Ne vous déplaise
En dansant la Javanaise
Nous nous aimions
Le temps d'une chanson
La vie ne vaut d'être vécue
Sans amour
Mais c'est vous qui l'avez voulu
Mon amour
Ne vous déplaise
En dansant la Javanaise
Nous nous aimions
Le temps d'une

La Llorona
(Traditional / The Essential Melody Gardot)
No sé qué tienen las flores, Llorona
Las flores de un camposanto
No sé qué tienen las flores, Llorona
Las flores de un camposanto
Que cuando las mueve el viento, Llorona
Parece que están llorando
Que cuando las mueve el viento, Llorona
Parece que estén llorando
Ay de mí Llorona, Llorona
Tú eres mi chuca
Ay de mí Llorona, Llorona
Tú eres mi chuca
Me quitarán de quererte, Llorona
Pero de olvidarte, nunca
Me quitarán de quererte, Llorona
Pero de olvidarte, nunca
A un Santo Cristo de fierro, Llorona
Mis penas le conté yo
A un Santo Cristo de fierro, Llorona
Mis penas le conté yo
Cuáles no serían mis penas, Llorona
Que el Santo Cristo lloró
Cuáles no serían mis penas, Llorona
Que el Santo Cristo lloró
Ay de mí, Llorona, Llorona
De un campo lirio
Ay de mí, Llorona, Llorona
De un campo lirio
El que no sabe de amores, Llorona
No sabe lo que es el martirio
El que no sabe de amores, Llorona
No sabe lo que es el martirio
Dos besos llevo en el alma, Llorona
Que no se apartan de mí
Dos besos llevo en el alma, Llorona
Que no se apartan de mí
El último de mi madre, Llorona
Y el primero que te di
El último de mi madre Llorona
Y el primero que te di
Ay de mí, Llorona, Llorona
Llévame al río
Ay de mí, Llorona, Llorona
Llévame al río
Tápame con tu rebozo, Llorona
Porque me muero de frío
Tápame con tu rebozo, Llorona
Porque me muero de frío

(Some Lessons - The Bedroom Sessions EP)
Momma it's driving me insane
To see you in such an awful pain
You know that I'll do anything I can
Just to make you smile all over again
Momma, what's been going on
You've been way to down,
For way too long
I said Momma
Did I go and do something wrong
Momma, what's going on
Momma you can take your time
Momma that will be just fine
But you know I'd listen up to every word
Come on, Momma now
Don't you be absurd
Momma, what's been going on
You've been way to down
For way too long
I said Momma
Did I go and do something wrong
Momma what's going on
Momma, I know you're feeling blue
I see the way he talks to you
His words, they cut like a knife
And Momma I know you're feeling bad
I see the way he miss you sad
I wish that I could change our lives
But I figure it out
You got to start it all over now
Momma, what's been going on
You've been way to down
For way too long
I said Momma
Did I go and do something wrong
Momma what's going on
Momma what's going on
Momma what's going on
Smile
( Nat King Cole Cover / Live )
Smile though your heart is aching
Smile even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky, you'll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll see the sun come shining through
If you just light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use in crying
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile
Someday My Prince
Will Come
( Larry Morey & Frank Churchil / Bye Bye Blackbird EP )
Someday my prince will come
Some day we'll meet again
And away to his castle we'll go
To be happy forever I know
Someday when spring is here
We'll find our love anew
And the birds will sing
And wedding bells will ring
For some day when my dreams come true
When my prince becomes you
Someday when spring is here
We'll find our love anew
And the birds will sing
And wedding bells will ring
For some day, oh some day
Someday when my dreams come true
(Federico Aubele featuring Melody Gardot)
Dare to keep an eye on people
Calling from behind
Trying to convince you've doing things
Trying to change your mind
I may have some doubts
But I hold the shovel tight
Digging in the frozen ground
I feel like my life is happening
Somewhere else in some other time
I feel like my life is happening
Somewhere else in some other time
Stress upon my brow
I can't stop my brain
Life unfolds before me
Like a runaway train
I may have some doubts
But I hold the shovel tight
Digging in the frozen ground
I feel like my life is happening
Somewhere else in some other time
I feel like my life is happening
Somewhere else in some other time
I feel like my life is happening
Somewhere else in some other time
I feel like my life is happening
Somewhere else in some other time
Souvenirs manqués
(Grand Corps Malade Feat. Melody Gardot)
Au matin, je me rappelle, je t'ai dit je te rappelle
Tu m'as laissé ton numéro d'un air solennel
Mais quand ça a sonné et que j'ai entendu ta voix
Tu m'as parlé comme si je te parlais pour la première fois
Tu m'as demandé "C'est qui?" J'ai répondu "C'est moi"
J'ai vite compris que dans ta voix il faisait froid
Je t'ai rappelé mon nom, les détails, la soirée
Je me suis dit quel con, je t'ai entendu te marrer
Si toi tu te souviens, tant mieux pour toi
Moi je n'ai rien que de blablabla
C'est quoi ton nom?
C'est quoi ce jeu?
I don't know why you call me baby coz I can't remember you
Les souvenirs manquent à l'appel
Les souvenirs, pour toi tu te rappelles
Les souvenirs je n'ai rien inventé
Les souvenirs, les souvenirs manqués
Ta mémoire te fait défaut, la mienne sur-réagit
Tu ne te rappelles de rien, je croule sous la nostalgie
Tu voudrais plus de souvenirs, j'aimerai manquer un peu
Difficile d'être un étranger à tes yeux
J'me souviens de ton rire, du trottoir, du taxi
Des étoiles, des clins d'oeil de la galaxie
De nos gestes, et enfin de nos corps en vie
Et du reste à la fin j'ai encore envie
Envie de quoi? Envie de qui?
Mais de quels corps? Mais de quelle nuit?
Comment tu crois tout ce que tu disais?
Si oh, franchement j'ai oublié
Les souvenirs manquent à l'appel
Les souvenirs, pour toi tu te rappelles
Les souvenirs je n'ai rien inventé
Les souvenirs, les souvenirs manqués
C'est qui?
Bah c'est moi le mec de la soirée
Alors?
Du coup, on peut s'voir?
Comment?
Oula je te dérange?
Je dors
On s'était dit qu'on allait s'revoir
Mais quand?
Mais tu vois qui j'suis ou pas?
Aucune idée
Mais tu m'avais dit de te rappeler
Ah bon?
Pourtant l'autre nuit
J'ai oublié
Les souvenirs manquent à l'appel
Les souvenirs, pour toi tu te rappelles
Les souvenirs je n'ai rien inventé
Les souvenirs, les souvenirs manqués
J'ai oublié
J'ai oublié
Summertime
(George Gershwin / Bye Bye Blackbird EP)
Summertime
And the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high
Your daddy's rich, really rich
And your mamma is good lookin'
So go and hush little baby
There ain't no need to cry
One of these mornings
You're gonna rise up singing
Spread your wings
And take to the sky
Till that day
There's ain't nothing that can harm you
With your daddy and mommy standing by
The Bare
Necessities
(Jazz Loves Disney / Feat. Raphael Gualazzi)
Look for the bare necessities
The simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife
I mean the bare necessities
Old Mother Nature's recipes
That brings the bare necessities of life
Wherever I wander, wherever I roam
I couldn't be fonder of my big home
The bees are buzzin' in the tree
To make some honey just for me
When you look under the rocks and plants
And take a glance at the fancy ants
Then maybe try a few
You, no
The bare necessities of life will come to you
They'll come to me
They'll come to you
Look for the bare necessities
The simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife
I mean the bare necessities
That's why a bear can rest at ease
With just the bare necessities of life
Now when you pick a pawpaw
Or a prickly pear
And you prick a raw paw
Next time beware
Don't pick the prickly pear by the paw
When you pick a pear
Try to use the claw
But you don't need to use the claw
When you pick a pear of the big pawpaw
The bare necessities of life will come to you
They'll come to you
Look for the bare necessities
The simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife
Uh uh let them go
I mean the bare necessities
Old Mother Nature's recipes
That brings the bare necessities of life
Ok then
So just relax
In my backyard
And if you act like a bee acts
Then you're working too hard
Don't spend your time lookin' around
For something you want that can't be found
When you find out you can live without it
And go along not thinkin' about it
I'll tell you something true
Look for the bare necessities
The simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife
Ok then
The bare necessities of life will come to you
They'll come to me
They'll come to you
And you too baby
I mean the bare necessities
That's why a bear can rest at ease
With just the bare necessities of life
With just the bare necessities of life
Ain't that right baby
These Boots
Are Made For Walking
(Nancy Sinatra cover / Jen Jis feat. Melody Gardot)
Are you ready, boots
Start walking
You keep saying you've got something for me
Something you call love, but confess
You've been messing where you shouldn't have been messing
And now someone else is getting all your best
These boots are made for walking
And that's just what they'll do
One of these days these boots
Are gonna walk all over you
Start walking
Are you ready, boots
Start walking
Start walking
You keep playing where you shouldn't be playing
And you keep thinking that you'll never get burnt
I've just found me a brand new box of matches, yeah
And what he knows you ain't had time to learn
These boots are made for walking
And that's just what they'll do
One of these days these boots
Are gonna walk all over you
Start walking
Are you ready, boots
Start walking
Start walking
Are you ready, boots
Start walking
Too Good To Let Go
Well I keep changing my mind
in the blink of an eye
Sometimes I wish you were gone forever
I know you say you're mine
But I'm taking it slow
Now see I don't wanna lie
Don't wanna play with your heart
But whenever it seems I'm falling apart
Your love does me good, and I want you to know
There's nobody else for me
No one who loves and leaves me free
How could I ever be the only eyes you wanna see
I don't know how a love like this could happen
And I can't believe I never told you so
You're too good to let go
You're too good to let go
When I'm caught in your gaze
It's if time were erased
I'm overwhelmed, beside myself
Can't believe you'd be mine
Would've called you "surprise"
And when I lay in your arms
I don't know what I find
But a light or less (?)
Might be wrong I don't mind
'Cause I'm home in your eyes
You're too good to let go
There's nobody else for me
No one who loves and leaves me free
How could I ever be the only eyes you wanna see
I don't know how a love like this could happen
And I can't believe I never told you so
You're too good to let go
You're too good to let go
You're too good to let go
You're too good to let go
Although I know it's hard to make it happen,
I can't believe I never told you so.
I keep changing my mind,
In the blink of an eye.
Sometimes I wish you were gone forever.
But your love does me good,
Yes your love does me good.
You're too good to let go. [x3]
La Vie En Rose
(Edith Piaf Cover / The Absence Deluxe Edition)
Des yeux qui font baisser les miens
Un rire qui se perd sur sa bouche
Voilà le portrait sans retouche
De l'homme auquel j'appartiens
Et 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 me 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'aperçois
Alors je sens en moi
Mon coeur qui bat
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
Ca me 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'aperçois
Alors je sens en moi
Mon coeur qui bat
Mon coeur qui bat
Wayfaring Stranger
(Live in Europe)
I'm just a poor wayfaring stranger
Traveling through this world of woe
And there is no sickness, no toil, nor danger
In that bright land for which I go
I'm going there to see my Father
I'm going there no more to roam
I'm only going over Jordan
I'm only going over home
I know dark clouds will gather 'round me
I know my way is rough and steep
But golden fields lie out before me
Where God's redeemed there vigils keep
I'm going there to see my Mother
She said she'd meet me when I come
I'm only going over Jordan
I'm only going over home
(Some Lessons - The Bedroom Sessions EP)
There comes a time in every little girl's life
When her momma says, girl, do your best
'Cause one day you may come to find
That all of your life has been a wicked ride
There comes a time in every young woman's life
When all of the men though they come and again
It's hardly enough to survive
And she starts to think life is a wicked ride
There comes a time in every old woman's life
When she takes a look in her picture book
And then she begins to realize
That all of her life has been a wicked ride
All of her life, all of her life
All of her life has been a wicked ride
(Live in Europe)
You don't know what love is
Until you've learned the meaning of the blues
Until you've loved a love you had to loose
You don't know what love is
You don't know how lips hurt
Until you've kissed and had to pay the cost
Until you've flipped you're heart and you have lost
You don't know what love is
Do you know how a lost heart fears
The thought of reminiscing
How lips have taste of tears
Loose altogether the taste for kissing
You don't know how hearts burn
For love that cannot live, yet never dies
Until you've faced each dawn with sleepless eyes
You don't know what love is
Do you know how a lost heart fears
The thought of reminiscing
How lips have taste of tears
Loose altogether the taste for kissing
You don't know how hearts burn
For love that cannot live, yet never dies
Until you've faced each dawn with sleepless eyes
You don't know what love is, what love is
You don't know what love is...
What love is
