Lyrics - Paroles de chansons

Once I built a railroad, made it run
Made it race against time
Once I built a railroad, now it's done
Brother can you spare a dime?
Once I built a tower to the sun
Brick and rivet and lime
Once I built a tower, now it's done
Brother can you spare a dime?

Once in khaki suits, gee, we looked swell
Full of that yankee Doodle De Dum.
Half a million boots went slogging through hell,
And I was the kid with the drum
Say, don't you remember they called me Al,
It was Al all the time.
Say, don't you remember, I'm your pal
Buddy, can you spare a dime?

Once I built a railroad, made it run
Made it race against time
Once I built a railroad, now it's done
Brother can you spare a dime?
Once I built a tower to the sun
Brick and rivet and lime
Once I built a tower, now it's done
Brother can you spare a dime?

Once in khaki suits, gee, we looked swell
Full of that yankee Doodle De Dum.
Half a million boots went slogging through hell,
And I was the kid with the drum
Say, don't you remember they called me Al,
It was Al all the time.
Say, don't you remember, I'm your pal
Buddy, can you spare a dime?

Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
Those days are over
You don't have to sell your body to the night

Roxanne
You don't have to wear that dress tonight
Walk the streets for money
You don't care if it's wrong or if it's right

Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
Roxanne
You don't have to

I loved you since I knew ya
I wouldn't talk down to ya
I have to tell you just how I feel
I won't share you with another boy

I know my mind is made up
So put away your make up
I told you once I won't tell you again
It's a bad way

Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
Roxanne
You don't have to

Baby don't put it on (x 4)

You've changed
That sparkle in your eyes is gone
Your smile is just a careless yawn
You're breaking my heart, you've changed
You've changed
Your kisses now are so blase
You're bored with me in every way
I can't understand, You've changed
You've forgotten the words, "I love you"
Each memory that we've shared
You ignore every star above you
I can't realize you've ever cared
You've changed
You're not the angel I once knew
No need to tell me what we're through
It's all over now, you've changed
You've changed

My baby don't care for shows
My baby don't care for clothes
My baby just cares for me

My baby don't care for cars and races
My baby don't care for high-tone places

Elizabeth Taylor is not his style
And even Ricky Martin's smile
Is somethin' he can't see
My baby don't care who knows it
My baby just cares for me

My baby don't care for shows
And he don't even care for clothes
My baby just cares for me

My baby don't care for cars and races
My baby don't care for high-tone places

I wonder what's wrong with baby
My baby just cares for
Just says his prayers for
My baby just cares
For me

The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and stars were the gifts you gave
To the dark and the endless skies
To the dark and the empty skies

The first time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth move in my hand
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command, my love
That was there at my command

The first time ever I lay with you
And felt your heart so close to mine
And I knew our joy would fill the earth
And last 'till the end of time, my love
And it would last 'till the end of time, my love
The first time ever I saw your face
Your face, your face, your face

Is there a time for keeping your distance
A time to turn your eyes away
Is there a time for keeping your head down
For getting on with the day
Is there a time for curl and lipstick
A time for cutting hair
Is there a time for High Street shopping
To find the right dress to wear.

Here she comes, heads turn around
Here she comes, to take her crown.
Is there a time to run for cover
A time for kiss and tell
Is there a time for different colours,
Different names you find it hard to spell
Is there a time for First Communion
A time for East 17
Is there a time to turn to Mecca
Is there a time to be a beauty queen
Here she comes, beauty plays the clown
Here she comes, sureal in her crown

Is there a time for tying ribbons
A time for Christmas trees
Is there a time for laying tables
When the night is set to freeze

I remember you
You're the one that made my dreams come true
A few kisses ago

I remember you
You're the one who said I love you too
Didn't you know

I remember too
A distant bell
And stars that fell
Like rain out of the blue

When my life is through
And the angels ask me to recall
The thrill of them all
Then I will tell them I remember you
You, you, you

I remember too
A distant bell
And stars that fell
Like rain out of the blue

When my life is through
And the angels ask me to recall
The thrill of them all
ooooooh
I shall tell them I remember
Oh you, oh you
You

Once I had a secret love
That lived within the heart of me
All too soon my secret love
Became impatient to be free

So I told a friendly star
The way that dreamers often do
Just how wonderful you are
And why I'm so in love with you

Now I shout it from the highest hills
Even told the golden daffodils
At last my heart's an open door
And my secret love's no secret anymore

Now I shout it from the highest hills
Even told the golden daffodils
At last my heart's an open door
And my secret love's no secret
My secret love's no secret
My secret love's no secret anymore

Love me, love me, say you do
Let me fly away with you
For my love is like the wind
And wild is the wind

Give me more than one caress
Satisfy this hungriness
Let the wind blow through your heart
Oh wild is the wind
Wild is the wind

You touch me
I hear the sound of mandolins
You kiss me
With your kiss the life begins
You're Spring to me
All things to me
Don't you know
You're life itself

Like the leaf
Clings to a tree
Oh, my darling, cling to me
For we're like creatures of the wind
And wild is the wind
Wild is the wind

When you're awake
The things you think
Come from the dream you dream
Thought has wings,
A nd lots of things
Are seldom what they seem
Sometimes you think you've lived before
All that you live to day
Things you do come back to you
As though they knew the way
Oh, the tricks your mind can play

It seems we stood and talked like this, before
We looked at each other in the same way then
But I can't remember where or when
The clothes you're wearing are the close, you wore
The smile you are smiling you were smiling then
But I can't remember where or when
Some things that happened for the first time
Seem to be happening again
And so it seems that we have met before
And that we laughed before, also loved before
But who knows where or when

It seems we stood and talked like this, before
We looked at each other in the same way then
But I can't remember where or when
The clothes you're wearing are the close, you wore
The smile you are smiling you were smiling then
But I can't remember where or when
Some things that happened for the first time
Seem to be happening again
And so it seems that we have met before
And that we laughed before,
And loved before
But who knows where or when
