I had to escape
The city was sticky and cruel
Maybe I should have called you first
But I was dying to get to you
I was dreaming while I drove
The long straight road ahead, uh, huh

Could taste your sweet kisses
Your arms open wide
This fever for you is just burning me up inside

I drove all night to get to you
Is that alright
I drove all night
Crept in your room
Woke you from your sleep
To make love to you
Is that alright
I drove all night

What in this world
Keep us from tearing apart
No matter where I go I hear
The beating of your heart
I think about you
When the night is cold and dark
No one can move me
The way that you do
Nothing erases the feeling between me and you

I drove all night to get to you
Is that alright
I drove all night
Crept in your room
Woke you from your sleep
To make love to you
Is that alright
I drove all night

Could taste your sweet kisses
Your arms open wide
This fever for you is just burning me up inside

I drove all night to get to you
Is that alright
I drove all night
Crept in your room
Woke you from your sleep
To make love to you
I drove all night... to hold you tight.

Where were you when I cried
When I needed you to be here by my side
Now, I've found you've always lied
When you said "I want to, need a place to hide"

Where were you when I died
When my breakdown pushed me right up to the sky
That's when real love replayed for a place to cry

Consolation, now
I need you anyhow
All my sorrows will be soaring away
If you want me to stay
Burning bridges lift(?), no more deep lonely cliffs (loneliness?)
Lies before me if you made up your mind
And say you're mine

Where were you when I cried
When I needed you to be here by my side
Now, I've found you've always lied
When you said "I want to, need a place to hide"

Where were you when I died
When my breakdown pushed me right up to the sky
That's when real love replayed for a place to cry

Consolation, now
I need you anyhow
All my sorrows will be soaring away
If you want me to stay
Burning bridges lift, no more deep lonely cliffs
Lies before me if you made up your mind
And say you're mine.

CIRCLE OF LIFE

SONGWRITER: ELTON JOHN & TIM RICE
COUNTRY:U. K.
ALBUM: THE LION KING
LABEL: WALT DISNEY
GENRE: SOUNDTRACK
YEAR:1994

"Circle of Life" is a song from Disney's 1994 animated film The Lion King. Composed by Elton John, with lyrics by Tim Rice, the song was performed by Carmen Twillie (the deep female lead vocals) and Lebo. (opening Zulu vocals) as the film's opening song. In an interview, Rice said he was amazed at the speed with which John composed: "I gave him the lyrics at the beginning of the session at about two in the afternoon. By half-past three, he'd finished writing and recording a stunning demo." Elton John sang a pop version (with alternative lyrics) of the song with the London Community Gospel Choir, which was included in the film's soundtrack and made into a music video. "Circle of Life" was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Song in 1994, along with two other songs from The Lion King: "Hakuna Matata" and "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" which won the award.
The song reached No. 11 in the UK and No. 18 in the United States and is featured frequently in attractions based on The Lion King, such as Disney theme parks and parades. Michael Crawford sang it as part of a medley for The Disney Album in 2001.
From the day we arrive on the planet
And blinking, step into the sun
There's more to be seen than can ever be seen
More to do than can ever be done

Some say eat or be eaten
Some say live and let live
But all are agreed as they join the stampede
You should never take more than you give

In the circle of life
It's the wheel of fortune
It's the leap of faith
It's the band of hope
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the circle, the circle of life

Some of us fall by the wayside
And some of us soar to the stars
And some of us sail through our troubles
And some have to live with the scars

There's far too much to take in here
More to find than can ever be found
But the sun rolling high through the sapphire sky
Keeps great and small on the endless round

In the circle of life
It's the wheel of fortune
It's the leap of faith
It's the band of hope
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the circle, the circle of life

On the path unwinding
In the circle, the circle of life.
L’INDIFFERÉNCE
GILBERT BÉCAUD
COMPOSITEUR: MAURICE VIDALIN. MUSIQUE: GILBERT BECAUD 
PAYS: FRANCE
ALBUM: L’INDIFFERÉNCE
RECORD: BMG
GENRE: VARIÉTÉ FRANÇAISE
ANNÉE: 1977

Au cours de sa carrière, il se produit trente-trois fois sur la scène de l'Olympia, où il gagne son surnom de «Monsieur 100 000 volts» en raison de son sens du swing, du fait des passions qu'il soulevait dans son sillage et de ses fans qui, souvent, à ses débuts, cassaient par enthousiasme les fauteuils. Il laisse l'image d'un homme électrique, toujours en mouvement. As cravate à pois, ses quelque quatre cents chansons et sa main sur l'oreille (pour être sûr de chanter juste) sont d’autres images spécifiques qui ont marqué les esprits.
Les mauvais coups, les lâchetés
Quelle importance
Laisse-moi te dire
Laisse-moi te dire et te redire ce que tu sais
Ce qui détruit le monde c'est:
L'indifférence
Elle a rompu et corrompu
Même l'enfance
Un homme marche
Un homme marche, tombe, crève dans la rue
Eh bien personne ne l'a vu
L'indifférence
L'indifférence
Elle te tue à petits coups
L'indifférence
Tu es l'agneau, elle est le loup
L'indifférence
Un peu de haine, un peu d'amour
Mais quelque chose
L'indifférence
Chez toi tu n'es qu'un inconnu
L'indifférence
Tes enfants ne te parlent plus
L'indifférence
Tes vieux n'écoutent même plus
Quand tu leur causes
Vous vous aimez et vous avez
Un lit qui danse
Mais elle guette
Elle vous guette et joue au chat à la souris
Mon jour viendra qu'elle se dit
L'indifférence
L'indifférence
Elle te tue à petits coups
L'indifférence
Tu es l'agneau, elle est le loup
L'indifférence
Un peu de haine, un peu d'amour
Mais quelque chose
L'indifférence
Tu es cocu et tu t'en fous
L'indifférence
Elle fait ses petits dans la boue
L'indifférence
Y a plus de haine, y a plus d'amour
Y a plus grand-chose
L'indifférence
Avant qu'on en soit tous crevés
D'indifférence
Je voudrai la voir crucifier
L'indifférence
Qu'elle serait belle écartelée
L'indifférence.
