Clocks




Lyrics:



Lights go out and I can't be saved

Tides that I tried to swim against

You've put me down upon my knees

Oh I beg, I beg and plead (singing)

Come out of things unsaid, shoot an apple of my head (and a)

Trouble that can't be named, tigers waiting to be tamed (singing)

You are, you are



Confusion never stops, closing walls and ticking clocks (gonna)

Come back and take you home, I could not stop, that you now know (singing)

Come out upon my seas, curse missed opportunities (am I)

A part of the cure, or am I part of the disease (singing)



You are [x6]

And nothing else compares

Oh no nothing else compares

And nothing else compares



You are [continues in background]

Home, home, where I wanted to go [x4]

Je Suis Malade (I am sick)




French Lyrics:



Je ne fume plus

Je ne rêve plus

Je n'ai même plus d'histoire

Je suis sale sans toi

Je suis laide sans toi

Comme une orpheline dans un dortoir

Je n'ai plus envie

De vivre ma vie

Ma vie cesse quand tu pars

Je n'ai plus de vie

Et même mon lit

Se transforme en quai de gare

Quand tu t'en vas...

Je suis malade

Complètement malade

Comme quand ma mère sortait le soir

Me laissant seul avec mon désespoir

Je suis malade

Complètement malade

J'arrive on ne sait jamais quand

Tu pars on ne sait jamais où

Et ça va faire bientôt deux ans

Que tu t'en fous...

Comme à un rocher

Comme à un péché

Je suis accroché à toi

Je suis fatiguée, je suis épuisée

De faire semblant d'être heureuse

Quand ils sont là

Je bois toutes les nuits

Et tous les whiskys

Pour moi ont le même goût

Et tous les bateaux

Portent ton drapeau

Je ne sais plus où aller tu es partout...

Je suis malade

Complètement malade

Je verse mon sang dans ton corps

Et je suis comme un oiseau mort

Quand toi tu dors

Je suis malade

Parfaitement malade

Tu m'as privée de tous mes chants

Tu m'as vidée de tous mes mots

Pourtant moi j'avais du talent

Avant ta peau...

Cet amour me tue

Si ça continue

Je crèverai seule avec moi

Près de ma radio

Comme un gosse idiot

Écoutant ma propre voix qui chantera...

Je suis malade

Complètement malade

Comme quand ma mère sortait le soir

Et qu'elle me laissait seule avec mon désespoir

Je suis malade

C'est ça... je suis malade

Tu m'as privée de tous mes chants

Tu m'as vidée de tous mes mots

Et j'ai le coeur complètement malade

Cerné de barricades

T'endends... Je suis malade...

Careless Whisper




Lyrics:



I feel so unsure

as I take your hand and lead to the dance floor

as the music dies, something in your eyes

calls to mind the silver screen

and all its sad good-byes



I'm never gonna dance again

guilty feet have got no rhythm

though it's easy to pretend

I know you're not a fool



Should've known better than to cheat a friend

and waste the chance that I've been given

so I'm never gonna dance again

the way I danced with you



Time can never mend

the careless whispers of a good friend

to the heart and mind

ignorance is kind

there's no comfort in the truth

pain is all you'll find



I'm never gonna dance again

guilty feet have got no rhythm

though it's easy to pretend

I know you're not a fool



Should've known better than to cheat a friend

and waste this chance that I've been given

so I'm never gonna dance again

the way I danced with you



Never without your love



Tonight the music seems so loud

I wish that we could lose this crowd

Maybe it's better this way

We'd hurt each other with the things we'd want to say



We could have been so good together

We could have lived this dance forever

But now whose gonna dance with me

Please stay



And I'm never gonna dance again

guilty feet have got no rhythm

though it's easy to pretend

I know you're not a fool



Should've known better than to cheat a friend

and waste the chance that I've been given

so I'm never gonna dance again

the way I danced with you



(Now that you're gone) Now that you're gone

(Now that you're gone) What I did's so wrong, so wrong

that you had to leave me alone

I Won't Dance




Lyrics:



(Ella)

Think of what you're losing by constantly refusing to dance with me

You'd be the idol of France with me

Instead you shake your foolish head dramatically

While I'm waiting so ecstatically

You just look and say emphatically



(Louis)

I won't dance, don't ask me

I won't dance, don't ask me

I won't dance, madam, with you

My heart won't let my feet do things they should do



You know what, you're lovely

And so what? You're still lovely

And oh, what you do to me

I'm like an ocean wave that's bumped on the shore

I feel so absolutely stumped on the floor



When you dance you're charming and you're gentle

Especially when you do the continental

But this feeling isn't purely mental

For heaven rest us! I'm not asbestos



And that's why

I won't dance. Why should I?

I won't dance. How could I?

I won't dance, merci beau coup

I know that music leads the way to romance

So if I hold you in my arms, I won't dance



(Ella)

I won't dance, don't ask me

I won't dance, don't ask me

I won't dance, monsieur, with you

My heart won't let my feet do things they should do



You know what, you're handsome

And so what? You're handsome

And oh, what you do to me

I'm like an ocean wave that's bumped on the shore

I feel so absolutely stumped on the floor



When you dance you're charming and you're gentle

Especially when you do the continental

But this feeling isn't purely mental

For heaven rest us! I'm not asbestos



And that's why

I won't dance. Why should I?

I won't dance. How could I?

I won't dance, merci beau coup

I know that music leads the way to romance

So if I hold you in my arms, I won't dance



(Louis)

I won't dance, don't ask me

I won't dance, don't ask me

I will not dance, madam, with you

My heart won't let my feet do things they should do



You know what? You're kinda lovely



(Ella)

And so what? I'm lovely



(Louis)

But oh, what you do to me

I'm like an ocean wave that's bumped on the shore

I feel so absolutely stumped on the floor



When you dance you're charming and you're gentle

Especially when you do the continental

But this feeling isn't purely mental

For heaven rest us! I'm not asbestos, honey!



(Ella)

And that's why

I won't dance. Why should I?

I won't dance. How could I?

I won't dance, merci beau coup

I know that music leads the way to romance

So if I hold you in my arms, I won't dance
