Breathe Me

help, i have done it again
i have been here many times before
hurt myself again today
and, the worst part is there's no-one else to blame

be my friend
hold me, wrap me up
unfold me
i am small
i'm needy
warm me up
and breathe me

ouch i have lost myself again
lost myself and i am nowhere to be found
yeah i think that i might break
i've lost myself again and i feel unsafe

be my friend
hold me, wrap me up
unfold me
i am small
i'm needy
warm me up
and breathe me

Madeleine Peyroux

I'm All Right

he made me laugh, he made me cry
he smoked his doggies in bed
but i'm all right, i'm all right
i've been lonely before
i asked the boy for a few kind words
he gave me a novel instead
but i'm all right, i'm all right
i've been lonely before
it's fine, it's ok
it was wrong, either way
i just wanted to say
there isn't much fun when you're drinking wine
he got drunk, he fell down
he threw a few of my things around
but i'm all right, i'm all right
i've been lonely before

i'd like to believe healthy cigarettes
but i have to conceive that wherever you are
you're still driving my car
sticks and stones break my bones
but tears don't leave any scars
so i'm all alright, i'm all alright
i've been lonely before
mmm...
i'm all alright, yeah
he played solitaire in bed
used to blow bubbles in bed
he sang christmas songs in bed
ahaaa...

Afterlight

will you come with me?
the christmas lights are taken down
but the light of another world
will still shine for us there

Fontanelle

may the sun always shine on you
and each day feel so bright and new
and may god hold you
in the palm of his hand

may the moon always light your way
and love be forever and here to stay
and may god hold you
in the palm of his hand

when your time has reached its end
then may paradise be just
around the bend

if the world should turn it's back to you
and it seems there's nothing lefft to do
then may god hold you
in the palm of his hand

Cry Me A River

now you say you're lonely
you cry the whole night through
well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river
i cried a river over you
.
now you say you're sorry
for bein' so untrue
well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river
i cried a river over you
.
you drove me, nearly drove me out of my head
while you never shed a tear
remember, i remember all that you said
told me love was too plebeian
told me you were through with me and
now you say you love me
well, just to prove you do
come on and cry me a river, cry me a river
i cried a river over you
.
i cried a river over you
.

The Kiss /// Ingrid Bergman / As Time Goes By

Happy Girl

you must remember this
a kiss is still a kiss
a sigh is still (just) a sigh
the fundamental things apply
as time goes by

and when two lovers woo
they still say: "i love you"
on that you can rely
no matter what the future brings
as time goes by

The Kiss /// Rita Hayworth / Please Don't Kiss Me

Explain To Me Again

moonlight and love songs
never out of date
hearts full of passion
jealousy and hate
woman needs man
and man must have his mate
that no one can deny

it’s still the same old story
a fight for love and glory
a case of do or die
the world will always welcome lovers
as time goes by

The Kiss /// Jayne Mansfield / Every Time You Kiss Me

Find The Way

let’s go for a ride
we can drive through the night
and we will find
the neon lightswill shine for us there

let’s move away, to the west side
and we’ll find out, you will see
that it’s alright, we’re alright

are you finding it hard
working every hour god sends
will you give me your word
and i will walk you there

the lines are down, the road is closed
and there is no way, around the sea

will you come with me?
we’ll go into town
the christmas lights are taken down
but the light of the world
will still shine for us there

are you finding it hard
working every hour god sends
will you give me your word
and i will walk you there
