Ne me Quitte pas Ne me quitte pas/Il faut oublier Tout peut s'oublier Qui s'enfuit deja Oublier le temps/Des malentendus Et le temps perdu A savoir comment Oublier ces heures Qui tuaient parfois A coups de pourquoi/Le coeur du bonheur Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas/Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas Moi je t'offrirai Des perles de pluie/Je creuserai la terre Jusqu'apres ma mort Pour couvrir ton corps D'or et de lumiere Je ferai un domaine Ou l"amour sera roi/ Ou l'amour sera loi Ou tu seras reine Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas/Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas Je 'inventerai Des mots insenses/Que tu comprendras Je te parlerai De ces amants-la Qui ont vu deux fois/Leurs coeurs s'embraser Je te raconterai L'histoire de ce roi Mort de n'avoir pas/Pu te rencontrer Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas On a vu souvent Rejaillir le feu/De l'ancien volcan Qu'on croyait trop vieux Il est parait-il Des terres brulees/Donnant plus de ble Qu'un meilleur avril Et quand vient le soir Pour qu'un ciel flamboie Le rouge et le noir Ne s'epousent-ils pas Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas Je ne vais plus pleurer Je ne vais plus parler/Je me cacherai la A te regarder Danser et sourire Et a t'ecouter Chanter et puis rire Laisse-moi devenir/L'ombre de ton ombre L'ombre de ta main L'ombre de ton chien mais Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas Ne me quitte pas |

Southern trees Bear strange fruit Blood on the leaves And blood at the roots Black bodies Swinging in the southern breeze Strange fruit hangin' From the poplar trees Pastoral scene Of the gallant south Them big bulging eyes And the twisted mouth Scent of magnolia Clean and fresh Then the sudden smell Of burnin' flesh Here is a fruit For the crows to pluck For the rain to gather For the wind to suck For the sun to rot For the leaves to drop Here is Strange and bitter cropSouthern trees bear strange fruit, Blood on the leaves and blood at the root, Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze, Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees.Pastoral scene of the gallant south, The bulging eyes and the twisted mouth, Scent of magnolias, sweet and fresh, Then the sudden smell of burning flesh.Here is fruit for the crows to pluck, For the rain to gather, for the wind to suck, For the sun to rot, for the trees to drop, Here is a strange and bitter cry. |

You ain't never been blue, no, no, no You ain't never been blue Till you've had that mood indigo That feeling goes stealing down to my shoes While I just sit here and sigh Go along blues I always get that mood indigo Since my baby said goodbye And in the evening when the lights are low I'm so lonely I could cry For there's nobody who cares about me I'm just a poor fool that's bluer than blue can be When I get that mood indigo I could lay me down and die You ain't never been blue, no, no, no You ain't never been blue Till you've had that mood indigo That feeling goes stealing down to my shoes While I just sit here and sigh Go along blues |

Don't take this heaven from one, if you must cling to someone now and forever, let it be me. Each time we meet, love, I find complete love. Without your sweet love what would life be? So never leave me lonely, tell me you'll love me only and that you'll always let it be me. If for each bit of gladness someone must taste of sadness I'll bear the sorrow, let it be me. No matter what the price is I'll make no sacrifices. Through each tomorrow let it be me. To you I'm praying, hear what I'm saying. Please, let your heart beat for me, just me. And never leave me lonely, tell me you'll love me only and that you'll always let it be me, let it be me. |

I lost myself on a cool damp night Gave myself in that misty light Was hypnotized by a strange delight Under a lilac tree I made wine from the lilac tree Put my heart in its recipe It makes me see what I want to see... And be what I want to be When I think more than I want to think Do things I never should do I drink much more that I ought to drink Because I brings me back you...Lilac wine is sweet and heady, like my love Lilac wine, I feel unsteady, like my love Listen to me... I cannot see clearly Isn't that she coming to me nearly here?Lilac wine is sweet and heady where's my love? Lilac wine, I feel unsteady, where's my love?Listen to me, why is everything so hazy? Isn't that she, or am I just going crazy, dear?Lilac Wine, I feel unready for my love... |

Sit there and count your fingers What can you do Old girl you're through Sit there, count your little fingers Unhappy little girl blue. Sit there and count the raindrops Falling on you It's time you knew All you can ever count on Are the raindrops That fall on little girl blue Won't you just sit there Count the little raindrops Falling on you 'Cause it's time you knew All you can ever count on Are the raindrops That fall on little girl blue No use old girl You might as well surrender 'Cause your hopes are getting slender and slender Why won't somebody send a tender blue boy To cheer up little girl blue |

'Tis the last rose of summer
Left blooming all alone All her lovely companions Aare faded and gone No flower of her kindred No rose bud is nigh To reflect back her blushes Or give sigh for sigh So soon may I follow When friendships decay And from love's shining circle The gems drop away When true hearts lie withered And fond ones are flown Oh! who would inhabit This bleak world alone |

If I should lose you The stars would fall from the skies If I should lose you The leaves would wither and die The birds in Maytime Would sing a lonely refrain And I would wander around Hating the sound of rain With you beside me No wind in winter would blow With you beside me A rose would bloom in the snow I gave you my love But I was living a dream And living would seem in vain If I lost you |

The other woman finds time to manicure her nails,
The other woman is perfect where her rival fails. And she's never seen with pin curls in her hair - anywhere. The other woman enchants her clothes with French perfume. The other woman keeps fresh cut flowers in each room. There are never toys scattered anywhere... And when her old man comes to call, He'll find her waiting like a lonesome queen. 'cause when she's by his side it's such a change from her old routine. But... The other woman will always cry herself to sleep. The other woman will never have his love to keep. And, as years go by... The other woman will spend her real life alone. |
