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. |

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 |

Anyone who has money to buy What do they call me My name is SWEET THING My name is Sweet ThingMy skin is brown 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 My name is PEACHES |

Love me love me love me
Say you do Let me fly away with you For my love is like the wind And wild is the windGive me more than one caress Satisfy this hungriness Let the wind blow through your heart For wild is the windYou... touch me... I hear the sound of mandolins You... kiss me... With your kiss my life begins You're spring to me All things to meDon't you know you're life itself Like a leaf clings to a tree Oh my darling, cling to me For we're creatures of the wind And wild is the wind So wild is the windWild is the wind Wild is the wind |

Baby do you understand me now
If sometimes you see that I'm mad Doncha know that no one alive can always be an angel? When everything goes wrong you see some badWell I'm just a soul whose intentions are good Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstoodYa know sometimes baby I'm so carefree with a joy that's hard to hide Then sometimes again it seems that all I have is worry And then you burn to see my other sideBut I'm just a soul whose intentions are good Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstoodIf I seem edgy I want you to know I never meant to take it out on you Life has its problems and I get more than my share but that's me one thing I never mean to doCause I love you Oh baby I'm just human Don't you know I have faults like anyone?Sometimes I find myself alone regretting some little foolish thing some simple thing that I've doneI'm just a soul whose intentions are good Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstoodI try so hard So don't let me be misunderstood |
