Dirk Bogarde sings Lyrics for Lovers

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AsJqxLZdAuM

اذ طالما غيّر النأيُ المحبّينا

تحفة من تحف فيروز ووديع الصافي معا :)

اذا كان ذنبي ان حبّكِ سيدي فكل ليالي العاشقينَ ذنوبٌ

اتوبُ الى ربي واني لمرةٍ يسامحني ربي اليك اتوبُ

بروحِيَ تلك الارض ما اطيب الربا وما احسن المصطافَ والمتربّعا

وأذكُرُ أيام الحمى ثم أنثني على كبدي من خشيةٍ أن تصدّعا

وليست عشيّاتُ الحمى برواجعٍ اليكَ ولكن خلّ عينيكَ تدمعا

كأنا خلقنا للنوى وكانّما حرامٌ على الايام ان نتجمّعا

غدا منادينا محكما فينا يقضي علينا الاسى لولا تأسّينا

يا جيرة بانت عن مغرم صبّ لعهده خانت من غير ما ذنب

لا تحسبوا البعد يغيّر العهدَ اذ طالما غيّر النأيُ المحبّينا

ولا قرب نُعمٍ ان دنت لك نافعٌ ولا نأيُها يُثني ولا انتَ تصبرُ

اذا جئت فامنح طرف عينيك غيرها لكي يحسبوا ان الهوى حيث تنظُرُ

يا شقيق الروح من جسدي اهوىً بي منك ام ألَمُ

أيها الظبيُ الذي شَرَدا تركتني مقلتاك سُدا

عموا أني اراكَ غدا وأظُنُّ الموتَ دونَ غَدي أين منّي اليومَ ما زعموا

أُدنُ شيئأ أيها القمر كادَ يمحو نورك الخَفَرُ

أدَلالٌ ذاك أم حذرُ يا نسيمَ الروح من بلدي خبّر الاحباب كيفَ هُمُ

حامل الهوى تعبُ يستخفّه الطرب

ان بكى يحق له ليس ما به لعبُ

كلما انقضى سَبَبٌ منكِ عادَ لي سَبَبُ

تعجبينَ من سَقَمي صحّتي هيَ العجَبُ

يا غزالاً في كثيب انت في حسنٍ وطيبِ

يا قريب الدارما وصلك مني بقريبِ

ياحبيبي بأبي انسيتني كل حبيبِ

لشقائي صاغك الله حبيبا للقلوب

الماجدة :)... يقول أني إمرأة

Queeeeeeeeen

Revelations!

This is a verse from a song, a verse that I read a long time ago and never forgot, It's the kind of song that can be interpreted in many ways, and back then I interpreted it in a way that seemed reasonable. Now I don't even try to imagin a meaning, I just want to put it here.

Bind all of us together, Ablaze with Hope and Free,

No storm or heavy weather Will rock the boat you'll see.

The time has come to close your eyes And still the wind and rain,

For the one who will be King, Is the Watcher in the Ring,

It is You. oh... It Is You...

:) This made me smile yesterday :)

And IIIIIIIIIIIIIII, CAN'T LET YOU GOOOO........................

hahahaha , always been my favorite part.

This ain't a love song, Bon Jovi

G R E A T Expression:)



I should have seen it coming when the roses died
Should have seen the end of summer in your eyes
I should have listened when you said good night
You really meant good bye

Baby ain't it funny how you never ever learn to fall
You're really on your knees when you think you're standing tall
But only fools are know-it-alls and I've played that fool for you

I cried and cried every night
There were nights that I died for you baby
I tried and I tried to deny it that your love drove me crazy baby

If the love that I got for you is gone
If the river I've cried ain't that long
Then I'm wrong yeah I'm wrong
This ain't a love song

Baby I thought you and me would
Stand the test of time
Like we got away with the perfect crime
But we were just a legend in my mind
I guess that I was blind

Remember those nights dancing at the masquerade
The clowns wore smiles that wouldn't fade
You and I were the renegades some things never change

It made me so mad 'cause I wanted it bad for us baby
And now it's so sad that whatever we had
Ain't worth saving oh oh oh
If the love that I've got for you is gone
If the river I've cried ain't that long
Then I'm wrong yes I'm wrong
This ain't a love song

If the pain that I'm feeling so strong
Is the reason that I'm holding on
Then I'm wrong yeah I'm wrong
This ain't a love song

I cried and I cried every night
There were nights that I died for you baby
I tried and I tried to deny it that
Your love drove me crazy

If the love that I got for you is gone
If the river I cried ain't that long
Then I'm wrong yeah I'm wrong
This ain't a love song

Then I'm wrong yeah I'm wrong
This ain't a love song
oh oh oh no no

Listening, David Hallyday

I must have waited 20 years to listen to this song once again, and I think i'm about to listen to it in 15 min. or so. Checking its lyrics for the first time I knew I was right 20 years ago, though not that good in english back then, but, it was something, and it is something :)


Listening
After all the years I would not hear, I'm listening
As I'm lookin' into eyes so clear and deep,
I see, the story is comin' together
Chapters end and start again...

By Listening
To the only one who understands the man I am
With love enough to let go of the past
I ask, and all my wrongs are forgiven
I can do the same for you

If you
Listen to my eyes
Listen to your heart
Never let the world's noise
Get louder than your own voice

Listen to my touch
Then touch the way you feel
You only hear
What is real

By listening
Like the mountain lets the ocean slowly move him
Or the way your body's moving mine
In time, this dance will go on forever
Without a sound, we turn around...
Listening

Listening
After all the years I would not hear, I'm listening
As I'm lookin' into eyes so clear and deep,
I see-the story comin' together
I know in time this dance will go on forever
Chapters end and start again
By
Listening

The way we were

Memories,
Light the corners of my mind
Misty water-colored memories
Of the way we were
Scattered pictures,
Of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another
For the way we were
Can it be that it was all so simple then?
Or has time re-written every line?
If we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me, would we? could we?
Memories, may be beautiful and yet
What's too painful to remember
We simply choose to forget
So it's the laughter
We will remember
Whenever we remember...
The way we were...

The way we were ,Barbra Streisand

Help Yourself, Sad Brad Smith

I know you'll help us when you're feeling better and we realize that it might not be for a long, long time
But we're willing to wait on you
We believe in everything that you can do if you could only lay down your mind
I want you to try to help yourself

Take the time to take apart, each brick that sits outside your heart
And look around you
There's people everywhere
And though they don't always show it they're just as scared
And we'd be more prepared if you just pulled on through

I want you to try to help yourself

Oceans of water underneath our feet
Terrible design
Dusty rooms you cannot sweep
Clouding up your mind

I know you'll help us when your feeling better and we realize that it might not be for a long, long time
But we're willing to wait on you
We believe in everything that you can do if you could only lay down your mind
I want you to try to help yourself

... And again

Persephone, Wishbone Ash

The lyrics goes ...

There's a light that shines on persephone,
Always a fire in her eyes,
And the last time that I went to her
I could tell things weren't right.

I just don't care to see your years go wasting,
There's no longer magic in your eyes.

In your time, you could outshine everybody else around,
But your off-stage ways might be a bore -
You take a bow, you take a fall.


I came to be here in the footlights,
To live with you through every song,
And your face displays a peaceful field.
I can't believe the curtain has to fall.

Now I know your years were never wasted,
Tonight I saw the magic in your eyes.

Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien ...... Edith Piaf

Non, Rien De Rien, Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien
Ni Le Bien Qu'on M'a Fait, Ni Le Mal
Tout Ca M'est Bien Egal
Non, Rien De Rien, Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien
C'est Paye, Balaye, Oublie, Je Me Fous Du Passe

Avec Mes Souvenirs J'ai Allume Le Feu
Mes Shagrins, Mes Plaisirs,
Je N'ai Plus Besoin D'eux
Balaye Les Amours Avec Leurs Tremolos
Balaye Pour Toujours
Je Reparas A Zero

Non, Rien De Rien, Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien
Ni Le Bien Qu'on M'a Fait, Ni Le Mal
Tout Ca M'est Bien Egal
Non, Rien De Rien, Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien
Car Ma Vie, Car Me Joies
Aujourd'hui Ca Commence Avec Toi

A Dix-sept Ans, Mireille Mathieu

After all those years, at last I found it in a digital form :) ... here is to my 20s :).



J'ai tout appris à dix sept ans
L'amour n'était pas mon amant
Il était fait pour des beautés
Ou quelques filles de beaux quartiers

Le jour de la Saint-Valentin
Il venait prendre par la main
Une autre qui était jolie
À dix-sept ans j'ai tout appris

Et celle qui n'était pas belle
N'avait qu'à rester chez elle
À s'inventer au téléphone
Un amoureux nommé personne
Qui murmure tu viens danser
Ou quelques vagues obscénités
Il y a de faux printemps
À dix-sept ans

J'ai vue des filles se marier
Sans amour et sans amitié
D'autres qui n'avaient pas vraiment
Su mériter un voile blanc

J'ai vue de riches héritières
Faire un mariage de misère
Quand ce n'était pas par orgueil
C'était la peur de rester seule

Elles ont triché avec leur coeur
Elles ont gagné un faux bonheur
Elles ont perdu une jeunesse
Qui n'a pas tenu ses promesses
Et leurs grands yeux des provinciales
S'ouvre le jour ou elles ont mal
D'avoir un jour trahi leurs dix-sept ans

J'ai pense à faux celles pour qui
Saint Valentin n'a pas sourie
Et qui n'ont jamais vu leurs noms
Tombés des lèvres d'un garçon

J'étais plus jeune qu'aujourd'hui
Et tout ce qui était permis
C'était un rêve d'ici, de là
Pour des moins belles comme moi

On se prédit son avenir
Se faire les cartes et se mentir
Et l'on s'invente au téléphone
Des inconnus nommés personne
Qui murmure tu viens danser
Ou quelques vagues obscénités
Aux filles seules et sans amant
À dix-sept ans

Immortality, Celine Dion & The Bee Gees

So this is who I am,
And this is all I know,
And I must choose to live,
For all that I can give,
The spark that makes the power grow

And I will stand for my dream if I can,
Symbol of my faith in who I am,
But you are my only,
And I must follow on the road that lies ahead,
And I won't let my heart control my head,
But you are my only
And we don't say goodbye,
And I know what I've got to be

Looking for Immortality
I make my journey through eternity
I keep the memory of you and me inside

Fulfill your destiny,
Is there within the child,
My storm will never end,
My fate is on the wind,
The king of hearts, the joker's wild,
But we don't say goodbye,
I'll make them all remember me

'Cos I have found a dream that must come true,
Every ounce of me must see it though,
But you are my only
I'm sorry I don't have a role for love to play,
Hand over my heart I'll find my way,
I will make them give to me

Immortality
There is a vision and a fire in me
I keep the memory of you and me, inside
And we don't say goodbye
We don't say goodbye
With all my love for you
And what else we may do We don't say, goodbye

Don't stop..believing, Journey

She's just a small town girl, living in a lonely world
She took the midnight train going anywhere
He's just a city boy, born and raised in south Detroit
He took the midnight train going anywhere

I seen her in a smokey room, the smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night

It goes on and on and on and on..

Stangers, waiting..walking down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the night..
Speed lights..people..
Living just to find emotion
Hiding somewhere in the night..

Working hard to get my fill, everybody wants a thrill
Betting anything to roll the dice just one more time
Some will win, some will lose
Some are born to sing the blues..And the movie never ends

It goes on and on and on and on..

Stangers, waiting..walking down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the night..
Speed lights..people..
Living just to find emotion
Hiding somewhere in the night..

Don't stop..believing..hold on to that feeling..
Street light..people..

Don't stop..believing..hold on...
Street lights..people..

Don't stop believing..hold on to that feeling..
Street lights..people..ohhhh

Liar, liar

Some lie about who they love
Some lie about the truth
Some lie to save their lives
Some lie about their youth

Some lie about age and beauty
The conquest of sex
Most lie about the night before
A woman lies for a party dress

I've lied for a stolen moment
I've lied for one more clue
I've lied about most everything
But I never lied to you

And we lie, lie, lie on a streetcar named desire
Oh we lie, lie, lie for that sweet bird of youth
I could be great like Tennessee Williams
If I could only hear something that sounds like the truth

Some lie in the face of death
Some lie about their fame
Some kneel and lie to God
Some lie about their name

Some lie in words and speeches
With every living breath
The young lie with their guitars
The old lie for a little respect

I've lied to lie with danger
I've lied for a drug or two
I've lied about most everything
But I never lied to you

I've lied for a stolen moment
I've lied for one more clue
I've lied about most everything
But I never lied to you.

Lies, Elton John

سـكـن الليـل ... محمد عبد الوهاب / فيروز/ جبران خليل جبران

سكن الليل و في ثوب السكون تختبي الأحلام
وسع البدر و للبدر عيون ترصد الأيام

فتعالي يا إبنة الحقل نزور كرمة العشاق
علنا نطفي بذياك العصير حرقة الأشواق

اسمع البلبل ما بين الحقول يسكب الألحان
في فضاء نفخت فيه التلول نسمة الريحان

لا تخافي يا فتاتي فالنجوم تكتم الأخبار
و ضباب الليل في تلك الكروم يحجب الأسرار

لا تخافي فعروس الجن في كهفها المسحور
هجعت سكرى و كادت تختفي عن عيون الحور

و مليك الجن إن مر يروح و الهوى يثنيه
فهو مثلي عاشق كيف يبوح بالذي يضنيه

والذكريات صدى السنين الحاكي ... يا جارة الوادي ... محمد عبد الوهاب/ أحمد شوقي

أعترف أنى لأسبوع مضى لم أستمع لهذه الأغنية بعدم إحساس بالإنحياز ضدها ربما لأنى لم أتفاعل معها بصوت عبد الوهاب -مع عميق تقديرى و إحترامي و محبتي له- لأنه ربما النسخة الوحيدة لها عندى ليست جيدة بما فيه الكفاية. لكن الرجوع للحق فضيلة . أداء نور الهدي -وهى من أكثر المطربات اللواتى أحب صوتهن وأحس أن إختفائها من مصر مبكرا كان خسارة كبيرة - ومن بعدها فيروز بنسختها من الأغنية جعلنى أستمع لهذه الأغنية وحدها فقط خلال الأسبوع الفائت .

يا جارة الوادي طربت وعــادني
ما يشبه الأحلام من ذكـــراك

مثلت في الذكرى هواك وفي الكرى
والذكريات صدى السنين الحاكي

ولقد مررت على الريـاض بربوة
غناءة كنت حيالهــــا ألقاك

ضحكت إلى وجوهها وعيونهـــا
ووجدت في أنفاسها ريـــاك

فذهبت في الأيام اذكر رفرفـــا
بين الجدوال والعيون حـواك

أذكرت هرولة الصبـابة والهوى
لما خطرت يقبلان خطــاك؟

لم أدر ما طيب العناق على الهوى
حتى ترفق ساعدى فطواك

وتأودت أعطــاف بانك في يدي
واحمر من خفريهما خداك

ودخلت في ليلين:فرعك والدجى
ولثمت كالصبح المنور فاك

ووجدت في كنه الجوانح نشـوة
من طيب فيك ومن سلاك لماك

وتعطلت لغة الكلام وخاطبت
عيني في لغة الهوى عينــاك

ومحوت كل لبانة من خاطرى
ونسيت كل تعاتب وتشاكـى

لا أمس من عمر الزمان ولاغد
جمع الزمان فكان يوم رضاك

High Hopes, Pink Floyd

Well , today is Pink Floyd's

1 ) Hey You.

2)

Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young
In a world of magnets and miracles
Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary
The ringing of the division bell had begin

Along the long road and on down the causeway
Do they still meet there by the cut

There was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps
Running before time took our dreams away
Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground
To a life consumed by slow decay

The grass was greener
The light was brighter
With friends surrounded
The night of wonder

Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us
To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side
Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again
Dragged by the force of some inner tide

At a higher altitude with flag unfurled
We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed-of world

Encumbered forever by desire and ambition
There's a hunger still unsatisfied
Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon
Though down this road we've been so many time

The grass was greener
The light was brighter
The taste was sweeter
The nights of wonder
With friends surrounded
The dawn mist glowing
The water flowing
The endless river

Forever and ever

Mireille & Patrick

Mireille is the great Mireille Mathieu, a legendary french singer, for me personally she is special because I knew her looks and voice before I even can say her name, she looked exactly like an older friend who spoke french too so I tied them together for many years, I loved her voice very much and till my mid 20s she was the BEST french female singer to me. In my childhood she was The Lady, my first and maybe only childhood Lady Model, why? I don't know may be because she spoke french. I liked her 'Rrrrrrr' very much ever since :)
And Patrick, he is Patrick Duffy, for the children of end of 1970s and start of 1980s like me , we all watched The Man From Atlantis, a T.V. series that personally made me stare in amusement and affected, maybe till now, the way I swam. At the age of 6,7 or 8 at the max I can say that he was one very early man model I liked :) funny, I don't feel like that now at all. Anyway for Patrick I never knew his name till I was in my 20s I think, when I looked the man from atlantis series info. I just memoriezed the series name for years, though I didn't know it's meaning back then. One day I will have the complete set of episodes to watch again :)
Why did I remember those two people, Because of a song that I was reminded of in a blog post a while ago, a song they sang together, a song that I watched as a little girl, never knew it's name and never understood a word of it, I was too young to do; and I forgot it completely till I heard it again today, But I remembered the music and them together in it. It's been more than 25 years since I last watched it I guess. But now I can understand evry word and I can say that they are good words, a great meaning if it's ever realised. Unfortunatly the song version on youtube is not complete till the end, but I hope whoever listens to it will like it. The song is

Together we're strong (1983)

Patrick Duffy:
A great man once said,
"Winter never fails to turn into Spring"
I know we are so different, you and I
When we are together, even a cold December
Feels like the middle of May

Mireille Mathieu:
You are the night, I am the day You are the star that shows the way You are the instrument I play You are the words I long to say
PD:You are the land, I am the sea
You are in counterpoint to me
And we agree to disagree

BOTH:No need to lie

MM: I only know when we're apart
PD: Together we're strong
MM: I only live with half a heart
PD: Together we're strong
MM: I need your hand to play my card
PD: Together we're strong

BOTH: We can't go wrong
BOTH: Together we're strong

MM: And now we know just what to do
PD: Together we're strong
MM: And how we get all meaning through
PD: Together we're strong
MM: We're only one when we are two
PD: Together we're strong

BOTH:Together we're strong

MM: Together we're strong
MM: Together we're strong Together we're strong We can't go wrong And every time your eyes meet mine I feel the world fall into line I'm passing on that good luck sign

BOTH: Let's keep hanging on
And now we know just what to do
And how we get all meaning through
We're only one when we are two
Together we're strong

MM: And I will always try to understand you
PD: I'll be there if you should need me
MM: Plan you in my life
PD: There's so much we can share with each other
MM: But if we say goodbye, it's not forever
PD: I can't lose you now I've found you
MM: I need you in my life
PD: 'Cause now you're in my life

PD: And together we're strong
There are so many ways of looking at the world
Everyone has a different dream
Yours may not be the same as mine
But when we're together
We can make them all come true

MM: You are the night, I am the day
PD: Together we're strong
MM: You are the star that shows the way
PD: Together we're strong
MM: You are the instrument I play
PD: Together we're strong
MM: You are the words I long to say
PD: Together we're strong
MM: Together we're strong
PD: You are the land I am the sea
MM: Together we're strong
PD: You are in counterpoint to me
MM: Together we're strong
PD: And we agree to disagree

BOTH: No need to lie

MM: You are the night, I am the day
PD: Together we're strong
MM: You are the star that shows the way
PD: Together we're strong
MM: You are the music to my song
PD: Together we're strong

BOTH: Together we're strong
PD: Together we're strong
BOTH: Together we're strong
PD: Together we're strong
