| Tell Laura I Love Her - Billy Connelly TELL LAURA I LOVE HER! TELL LAURA I NEED HER! TELL LAURA NOT TO CRY MY LOVE FOR HER WILL NEVER DIE. Ladies and gentlemen, I want to tell you, Oh yes, Laura and I were lovers for a long time ladies and gentlemen 'Til God took her away for a special purpose of his very own. I must admit I was a bit cheesed off at the time. I had a special purpose in mind myself. But there you go. Oh, sure, we'd lovers tiffs like anybody else. Like the time, in a moment of weakness, I sunk and I bought a dirty magazine. And in that magazine, ladies and gentlemen, I read about erogenous zones. In a very sly way, ladies and gentlemen, I invited Laura over to my place, ostensibly for coffee and cookies. And we were sitting on the sofa, and we were necking, ladies and gentlemen, necking. And I guess I must have touched one of her erogenous zones, ladies and gentlemen, Because she kneed me in one of mine. TELL LAURA I LOVE HER! TELL LAURA I NEED HER! TELL LAURA NOT TO CRY MY LOVE FOR HER WILL NEVER DIE. Oh ladies and gentlemen, I can't tell you, How could I ever forget that day God took Laura away for a special purpose of his own. We were downtown shopping for Laura's mum. She wanted some rubber bedclothes and an inflatable man. Strange woman Laura's mum. But anyhow, we were walking hand in hand down Main Street When a child ran onto the road, ladies and gentlemen. I said "Oh my God, my nerves!" and I covered my eyes I guess I'm that kind of guy. But Laura, who was made of stronger stuff than I, dashed onto the road to save that child. Ladies and gentlemen, I wanna tell you, the child made it to the other side and turned round and said "Eee eu eee-e eh-eu" but Laura didn't. She made it to the white line in the centre of the road, ladies and gentlemen, when a juggernaut came around the corner sideways and flattened her. TELL LAURA I LOVE HER! TELL LAURA I NEED HER! (I blame myself, I blame myself) TELL LAURA NOT TO CRY MY LOVE FOR HER WILL NEVER DIE. Oh ladies and gentlemen, how can I tell you, Some nights I lie awake, awash with sweat, as I hear the exact noise those lorries made when they flattened Laura It was a sorta "SPLAT" You know the noise you get When you stick a straw up a frogs bum and blow really hard I blame myself I wanna tell you, ladies and gentlemen Main Street was not a pretty sight There was bits of Laura everywhere I remember, two bits were sliding down the post office window And a big Alsatian came around the corner and made off with another couple of bits And it was with a heavy heart And a tear in either eye I searched, and I searched but I couldn't find the bit I was looking for! TELL LAURA I LOVE HER! TELL LAURA I NEED HER! TELL LAURA NOT TO CRY MY LOVE FOR HER WILL NEVER DIE. True Companion - Marc Cohn Baby i've been searching like everybody else Can't say nothing different about myself Sometimes i'm an angel And sometimes i'm cruel And when it comes to love I'm just another fool Yes, i'll climb a mountain I'm gonna swim the sea There ain't no act of god girl Could keep you safe from me My arms are reaching out Out across this canyon I'm asking you to be my true companion True companion True companion So don't you dare and try to walk away I've got my heart set on our wedding day I've got this vision of a girl in white Made my decision that it's you allright And when i take your hand I'll watch my heart set sail I'll take my trembling fingers And i'll lift up your veil Then i'll take you home And with wild abandon Make love to you just like a true companion You are my true companion I got a true companion True companion When the years have done irreparable harm I can see us walking slowly arm in arm Just like the couple on the corner do 'cause girl i will always be in love with you And when i look in your eyes I'll still see that spark Until the shadows fall Until the room grows dark Then when i leave this earth I'll be with the angels standin' I'll be out there waiting for my true companion Just for my true companion True companion True companion Vienna - Billy Joel Slow down you crazy child You're so ambitious for a juvenile But then if you're so smart tell me why You are still so afraid? Where's the fire, what's the hurry about? You better cool it off before you burn it out You got so much to do and only So many hours in a day But you know that when the truth is told That you can get what you want Or you an just get old You're gonna kick off before you even get halfway through When will you realize Vienna waits for you Slow down you're doing fine You can't be everything you want to be Before your time Although it's so romantic on the borderline tonight Too bad but it's the life you lead You're so ahead of yourself That you forgot what you need Though you can see when you're wrong But you know you can't always see when you're right You got your passion you got your pride But don't you know only fools are satisfied? Dream on, but don't imagine they'll all come true When will you realize Vienna waits for you Slow down you crazy child Take the phone off the hook And disappeaar for a while It's alright you can afford to lose a day or two When will you realize Vienna waits for you. |
| Lyrics T- V |
| Tell Me - Billie Myers Dreaming but I'm not sleeping. Or have I died, died alive? Swimming as I'm sinking, I'm holding on to letting go, yeah. Oh how does it feel Making love to me like you do? CHORUS: Tell me who would you be? Would you be me? The woman in me? Would you like to be under my skin? I will let you in, yeah yeah yeah. I want, I wanna know what you're feeling. I wanna crawl under your skin. I wanna know how you feel in me, yeah yeah yeah. Naked, oh I like you naked. And when I fake it you like me more. Exploring the taste I'm touching. You're watching, I'm watching you, yeah. CHORUS So how would it feel Making love to me if I were you? Ha, yeah. Oh oh oh oh oh. Making love to me like you do-oh oh oh oh. Tell me, tell me, Tell me, would you like to be me, yeah yeah yeah. CHORUS This House - Alison Moyet Whose sticky hands are these And what is this empty place I could be happily lost but for your face Here stands an empty house That used to be full of life Now it's home for no one and his wife It's a hovel and... Who can take your place? I can't face another day And who will shelter me? It's cold in here Cover me Under these fingertips a strange body rolls and dips I close my eyes and you're here again Later as day descends I'll shout from my window To anyone listening, "I'm losing" Who can take your place? I can't face another day And who will shelter me? It's cold in here Cover me Oh in a plague of hateful questioning Tap dancing every syllable from ear to ear I hear the din of lovers jousting When I'm hiding with my head to the wall Who will shelter me? It's cold in here This Is The Time - Billy Joel We walked on the beach beside that old hotel They're tearin' it down now, but it's just as well I haven't shown you everything a man can do So stay with me, baby I've got plans for you This is the time to remember 'Cause it will not last forever These are the days to hold on to 'Cause we won't, although we'll want to This is the time, But time is gonna change You've given me the best of you But now I need the rest of you Did you know that before you came into my life It was some kind of miracle that I survived Some day we will both look back And have to laugh We lived through a lifetime And the aftermath This is the time to remember 'Cause it will not last forever These are the days to hold on to 'Cause we won't, although we want to This is the time, But time is gonna change I know we've got to move somehow But I don't want to lose you now Sometimes it's so easy To let a day slip on by Without even seeing each other at all But this is the time you'll turn back to and so will I And those will be days you can never recall And so we embrace again Behind the dunes This beach is so cold on winter afternoons But holding you close is like holding the summer sun I'm warm from the memory of days to come This is the time to remember 'Cause it will not last forever These are the days to hold on to 'Cause we won't, although we'll want to This is the time, But time is gonna change You've given me the best of you But now I need the rest of you Universal Soldier - Buffy Saint-Marie He's five feet two and he's six feet four He fights with missiles and with spears He's all of 31 and he's only 17 He's been a soldier for a thousand years He's a Catholic, a Hindu, an atheist, a Jain, a Buddhist and a Baptist and a Jew and he knows he shouldn't kill and he knows he always will kill you for me my friend and me for you And he's fighting for Canada, he's fighting for France, he's fighting for the USA, and he's fighting for the Russians and he's fighting for Japan, and he thinks we'll put an end to war this way And he's fighting for Democracy and fighting for the Reds He says it's for the peace of all He's the one who must decide who's to live and who's to die and he never sees the writing on the walls But without him how would Hitler have condemned him at Dachau Without him Caesar would have stood alone He's the one who gives his body as a weapon to a war and without him all this killing can't go on He's the universal soldier and he really is to blame His orders come from far away no more They come from him, and you, and me and brothers can't you see this is not the way we put an end to war. |
