C'est le temps de l'amour, le temps des copains et de l'aventure
Quand le temps va et vient, on ne pense à rien malgré ses blessures
Car le temps de l'amour, c'est long et c'est court
Ça dure toujours, on s'en souvient

On se dit qu'à vingt ans, on est le roi du monde
Et qu'éternellement, il y aura dans nos yeux tout le ciel bleu

C'est le temps de l'amour, le temps des copains et de l'aventure
Quand le temps va et vient, on ne pense à rien malgré ses blessures
Car le temps de l'amour, ça vous met au cœur
Beaucoup de chaleur et de bonheur

Un beau jour c'est l'amour et le cœur bat plus vite
Car la vie suit son cours et l'on est tout heureux d'être amoureux

C'est le temps de l'amour, le temps des copains et de l'aventure
Quand le temps va et vient, on ne pense à rien malgré ses blessures
Car le temps de l'amour, c'est long et c'est court
Ça dure toujours, on s'en souvient.

Lyric - Love Story

Love Story
Performer: Andy Williams

Where do I begin
To tell the story
Of how great a love can be
The sweet love story
That is older than the sea
The simple truth about the love she brings to me
Where do I start

With her first hello
She gave the meaning
To this empty world of mine
There'll never be
Another love another time
She came into my life
And made a living fine
She fills my heart

She fills my heart
With very special things
With angel songs
With wild imaginings
She fills my soul
With so much love
That anywhere I go
I'm never lonely
With her along
Who could be lonely
I reach for her hand
It's always there

How long does it last?
Can love be measured by the hours in a day?
I have no answers now
But this much I can say
I know I'll need her till the stars all burn away
And she'll be there

Une Histoire D'Amour
Artist: Mireille Mathieu

Une histoire d'amour
Où chaque jour devient pour nous le dernier jour
Où on peut dire à demain à son amour
Et, qu'on est là, tout près de lui a regardé
Mourir sa vie

Une histoire d'amour
Où, pour nous deux, le mot toujours semblait trop court
Tu vois pourtant nous n'avons plus beaucoup le temps
Non mon amour tu ne dois pas, il ne faut pas
Pleurer sur moi

Ne me dis pas adieu
Je vais fermer les yeux
Viens près de moi
Et prends-moi dans tes bras
Restons ensemble
Serre-moi fort
Tu vois il me semble
Que ma vie s'endort
Dis-moi je t'aime

Une histoire d'amour
C'est la chanson de l'océan, les nuits d'été
Un souvenir qui va durer l'éternité
Pour moi ce soir la vie s'en va mais notre amour
Ne finis pas

Une histoire d'amour
Ça ne peut pas vraiment mourir en un seul jour
Ne reste pas le cœur en deuil à vivre seul
Il te faudra voir d'autres ciels, d'autres soleils
Ne pleure pas

Lyric - A Love Before Time (Tan Dun, Coco Lee)

[Original Chinese Lyric]
月光愛人 (李玟)

我醒來 睡在月光裡
下弦月 讓我想你
不想醒過來 誰明白
怕眼睜開 你不在

愛人心 深入海
帶我去 把它找回來
請愛我 一萬年
用心愛

[愛是月光的禮物
我等待天使的情書
說你 愛我]

我願為了愛沉睡 别醒來
永恆哪 在不在 怪我的心 放不開
北極星 帶我走
别躲藏 把愛找出来

我愛你 每一夜
我等待 (等你)
我的心 為了愛 睡在月之海
孤單的我 想念誰
誰明白

[我在月光下流淚
我也在月光下沉睡
没有 後悔]

等待真心人把我吻醒

[我在睡夢中一天
也是在回憶中一年
說你 愛我]

我願為了愛沉睡
到永遠

[English Literal Translation]
Moonlight Lover (CoCo Lee)

I'm waking up from sleeping in the moonlight
The waning crescent made me think of you
Don't want to wake up, who understands?
Afraid that when my eyes open
You won't be here

My lover's heart has sunk into the sea
Take me there to search it out
Please love me for 10,000 years
With your heart

[Love is moonlight's present
I'll await an Angel's love letter
Saying you love me]

For love, I'm willing to sleep deeply
Without waking

Is eternity here or not?
Blame my heart for being unable to let go
North Star, take me away
Don't conceal yourself-- seek out that love
I love you, every night
I'm waiting (waiting for you)
For love, my heart is sleeping in the moon's ocean
This lonely me is missing whom?
Who understands?

[I'm crying tears beneath this moon
I'm also sleeping deeply in the moonlight
Without regrets]

Waiting for a true-hearted person to kiss me awake

[I'm in a sleeping dream for a day
Also in recollection for a year
Say you love me]

For love, I'm willing to sleep deeply
Until forever


[English Lyric]
A Love Before Time

Music by Tan Dun
Lyric by James Schamus
Performed by Coco Lee

If the sky opened up for me
And the mountains disappeared
If the seas ran dry, turned to dust
And the sun refused to rise
I would still find my way
By the light I see in your eyes
The world I know fades away
But you stay

[As the earth reclaims its due
And the cycle starts anew
We'll stay, always]

In the love that we have shared
Before time

If the years take away
Every memory that I have
I would still know the way
That would lead me back to your side
The North Star may die
But the light that I see in your eyes
Will burn there always
Lit by the love we have shared
Before time

[When the forest turns to jade
And the stories that we've made
Dissolve away]

One shining light will still remain

[When we shed our earthly skin
And when our real life begins
There'll be no shame]

Just the love that we have made
Before time

Lyric - Last Christmas (Glee Cast, 2009)

Last Christmas
Written by George Michael
Performed by Glee Cast
2009

[Chorus]
Last christmas
I gave you my heart (gave you my heart)
But the very next day
You gave it away (gave it away)
This year
To save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special (special)

[Chorus]

Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance
But you still catch my eye
Tell me baby
Do you recognize me?
Well, it's been a year
It doesn't surprise me
(Happy Christmas, Christmas)

I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying "I love you"
I meant it
Now I know what a fool I've been
But if you kissed me now
I know you'd fool me again

[Chorus]

Bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum

A crowded room
Friends with tired eyes
I'm hiding from you
And your soul of ice
My god I thought you were
Someone to rely on (someone to rely on)
Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on

A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man under cover
But you tore me apart (ooh ohh)
Now I've found a real love
You'll never fool me again

[Chorus]

Lyric - Let's Stay Together (Al Green, 1971)

Let's Stay Together
Written and Performed by Al Green
Hi Records, 1971

I, I'm so in love with you
Whatever you want to do is all right with me
'Cause you make me feel so brand new
And I want to spend the rest of my life with you

Let me say that since, alright, since we've been together
Loving you forever is what I need
Oh let me be the one you come running to
I'll never be untrue

Oh let's, let's stay together
Lovin' you whether, whether
Times are good or bad, happy or sad, alright, oh yeah
Whether times are good or bad, happy or sad

Oh tell me why, why, why, why, why, why
Why people break up, turn around and make up
I can't see, you never, never, never do that to me
You better not do, staying around you is all I
All these eyes will ever see

Why won't you say that me, everybody says
That let's, let's stay together
Lovin' you whether, whether
Times are good or bad, happy or sad

Everybody says, "Let's, let's stay together"
I'll keep on lovin' you whether, whether
Times are, oh times are good or times are bad
Whether, whether good or bad, happy or sad
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

Lyric - Lyin' Eyes (The Eagles, 1975)

Houston 1976


Farewell




Lyin' Eyes
Written by Don Henley, Glenn Frey
The Eagles
Asylum, September 7, 1975


City girls just seem to find out early
How to open doors with just a smile
A rich old man
And she won't have to worry
She'll dress up all in lace and go in style

Late at night a big old house gets lonely
I guess every form of refuge has its price
And it breaks her heart to think her love is only
Given to a man with hands as cold as ice

So she tells him she must go out for the evening
To comfort an old friend who's feelin' down
But he knows where she's goin' as she's leavin'
She is headed for the cheatin' side of town

[CHORUS]
You can't hide your lyin' eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't no way to hide your lyin eyes

On the other side of town a boy is waiting
With fiery eyes and dreams no one could steal
She drives on through the night anticipating
'Cause he makes her feel the way she used to feel

She rushes to his arms,
They fall together
She whispers that it's only for awhile
She swears that soon she'll be comin' back forever
She pulls away and leaves him with a smile

[CHORUS]

She gets up and pours herself a strong one
And stares out at the stars up in the sky
Another night, it's gonna be a long one
She draws the shade and hangs her head to cry

She wonders how it ever got this crazy
She thinks about a boy she knew in school
Did she get tired or did she just get lazy?
She's so far gone she feels just like a fool

My, oh my, you sure know how to arrange things
You set it up so well, so carefully
Ain't it funny how your new life didn't change things
You're still the same old girl you used to be

[CHORUS]

There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes
Honey, you can't hide your lyin' eyes
