I Know A Place lyrics - Petula Clark

Every day when the work is behind you
and the shop and the store put the lock on the door,
just get away where your worries won't find you.
If you like, well, I'll tell you more.

Don't let the day get the better of you.
When the evening comes, there's so much to do!
You'd better put on your best and wear a smile.
Come along with me a while
'cause I tell you

[CHORUS:]
I know a place
where the music is fine and the lights are always low!
I know a place
where we can go.

At the door there's a man who will greet you.
Then you go downstairs to some tables and chairs.
Soon, I'm sure, you'll be tapping your feet
because the beat is the greatest there.

All around there are girls and boys.
It's a swingin' place,
a cellar full of noise!
It's got an atmosphere of its own somehow.
You gotta come along right now!
'Cause I tell you

[CHORUS]

[musical interlude]

Well, all around there are girls and boys.
It's a swingin' place,
a cellar full of noise.
It's got an atmosphere of its own somehow.
You've gotta come along right now!
'Cause I tell you

[CHORUS]

I know a place where we can go!
I know a place where the lights are low!
I know a place where we can go!
I know a place where the lights are low!
[repeat and fade out]

The Song Of My Life lyrics - Petula Clark

Everyone has a song, that belongs to their life
That will go on and on, through the years of their life
There's a wonderful song, one that you brought to me
And I look on this song, as my life's symphony

This is the song of my life
It will go on through my life
Something you said tenderly
Suddenly it's music for me
It springs from things that we share
Only through you is it there
I walk along day and night
Singing the song of my life

I can picture the past, that we knew yesterday
Every tear, every laugh, every step of the way
I recall what was wrong, and the things that were right
And each moment belongs, to the song of my life

This is the song of my life
It will go on through my life
Something you said tenderly
Suddenly it's music for me
It springs from things that we share
Only through you is it there
I walk along day and night
Singing the song of my life

This is the song of my life
It will go on through my life

Don't Sleep In The Subway lyrics - Petula Clark

You wander around
on your own little cloud
when you don't see the why
or the wherefore.

Ooh, you walk out on me
when we both disagree
'cause to reason is not what you care for.

I've heard it all a million times before.
Take off your coat, my love, and close the door.

Don't sleep in the subway, darlin'.
Don't stand in the pouring rain.
Don't sleep in the subway, darlin'.
The night is long.
Forget your foolish pride.
Nothing's wrong,
now you're beside me again.

You try to be smart
then you take it apart
'cause it hurts when your ego is deflated.
um-m-um-um-um-um
You don't realize
that it's all compromise
and the problems are so over-rated.

Good-bye means nothing when it's all for show.
So why pretend you've somewhere else to go?

Don't sleep in the subway, darlin'.
Don't stand in the pouring rain.
Don't sleep in the subway, darlin'.
The night is long.
Forget your foolish pride.
Nothing's wrong,
now you're beside me again.

Oh, oh, oh.
Don't sleep in the subway, darlin'.
Don't stand in the pouring rain.
Don't sleep in the subway, darlin'.
The night is long.
Forget your foolish pride.
Nothing's wrong,
now you're beside me again.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
[repeat chorus and fade out]

My Friend The Sea lyrics - Petula Clark

Oh you great ocean so deep, Oh you ocean so wide
I feel you are my friend so in you I confide
You know the world, every land, every shore
There's not a place you don't explore

Send every wave as it rolls on it's way
Searchin' high, searchin' low, searchin' each little bay
Send out a plea to the whole of seven seas
Where is the one I adore?

My friend the sea, be true to me
My love, one day sailed far away
My friend the sea, please ask the tide
To bring my love home to my side

Oh you great ocean so deep, Oh you ocean so wide
There are hearts you unite, There are hearts you divide
You know the world; Every river, mountain, stream
Look everywhere you've ever been

Ask all the fish as they swim out to sea
Would they pass on the word as a favor to me
Maybe they'll look out some little brook
And find the one I adore

My friend the sea, be true to me
My love, one day sailed far away
My friend the sea, please ask the tide
To bring my love home to my side

Happy Heart lyrics - Petula Clark

There's a certain sound
Always follows me around
When you're close to me
You will hear it

It's the sound that lovers
Finally will discover
When there is no other
For their love

It's my happy heart you hear
Singing loud and singing clear
And it's all because you're near
Be my love

Take my happy heart away
Make me love you, make my day
In your arms I want to stay
All my love

Yeah'

Feeling more and more
Like I've never felt before
You have changed my life
So completely

Music fills my soul now
I've lost all control now
I'm not half, I'm whole now
With your love

It's my happy heart you hear
Singing loud and singing clear
And it's all because you're near
Be my love

Take my happy heart away
Make me love you, make my day
In your arms I want to stay
All my love

It is my happy heart
You can hear my happy heart
In love uoohhhhhh

Aaaaahhhhh

Take me

Take my happy heart

Please be my happy heart

Eeehhhhhhh'

Call Me lyrics - Petula Clark

If you're feeling sad and lonely,
There's a service I can render
Tell the one who loves you only
I can be so warm and tender

Call me
Don't be afraid, you can call me
Maybe it's late, but just call me
Tell me, and I'll be around

When it seems your friends desert you,
There's somebody thinking of you
I'm the one who'll never hurt you
Maybe that's because I love you

Call me
Don't be afraid, you can call me
Maybe it's late, but just call me
Tell me, and I'll be around

Now, don't forget me
'Cause if you let me,
I will always stay by you
You gotta trust me
That's how it must be
There's so much that I can do

If you call, I'll be right with you
You and I should be together
Take this love I long to give you
I'll be at your side forever

Call me
Don't be afraid, you can call me
Maybe it's late, but just call me
Tell me, and I'll be around

Call me
Don't be afraid, you can call me
Maybe it's late, but just call me
Tell me, and I'll be around

Now, don't forget me
'Cause if you let me,
I will always stay by you
You gotta trust me
That's how it must be
There's so much that I can do

If you call, I'll be right with you
You and I should be together
Take this love I long to give you
I'll be at your side forever

Call me
Don't be afraid, you can call me
Maybe it's late, but just call me
Tell me, and I'll be around

You gotta call me
Call me now

The Windmills Of Your Mind lyrics - Petula Clark

Round
Like a circle in a spiral
Like a wheel within a wheel
Never ending or beginning
On an ever-spinning reel
Like a snowball down a mountain
Or a carnival balloon
Like a carousel that's turning
Running rings around the moon
Like a clock whose hands are sweeping
Past the minutes of its face
And the world is like an apple
Whirling silently in space
Like the circles that you find
In the windmills of your mind

Like a tunnel that you follow
To a tunnel of its own
Down a hollow to a cavern
Where the sun has never shone
Like a door that keeps revolving
In a half-forgotten dream
Or the ripples from a pebble
Someone tosses in a stream
Like a clock whose hands are sweeping
Past the minutes of its face
And the world is like an apple
Whirling silently in space
Like the circles that you find
In the windmills of your mind

Keys that jingle in your pocket
Words that jangle in your head
Why did summer go so quickly?
Was it something that you said?
Lovers walk along a shore
And leave their footprints in the sand
Is the sound of distant drumming
Just the fingers of your hand?
Pictures hanging in a hallway
And the fragment of a song
Half-remembered names and faces
But to whom do they belong?
When you knew that it was over
In the autumn of goodbyes
For a moment you could not recall
The colour of his eyes

Like a circle in a spiral
Like a wheel within a wheel
Never ending or beginning
On an ever-spinning reel
As the images unwind
Like the circles that you find
In the windmills of your mind

The Show Is Over lyrics - Petula Clark

The show is over now
Our song is dying
This is the end my friend
There isn't any more

You played the part so well
There's no denying
For I believed each lie from lipps that I adore
I was a fool to feel that your love was real
But how was I to know it was just a great big show

The stage is empty now
the lights are fading
and as the curtain falls
my heart calls tell me why
the show is over now and here am I

[instrumental]

(I was a fool to feel that your love was real)
But how was I to know it was all a great big show

The stage is empty now
The lights are fading
And as the curtain falls
My heart calls tell me why
The show is over now and here am I

Chariot lyrics - Petula Clark

Chariot, Chariot, si tu veux de moi
Pour t'accompagner au bout des jours
Laisse moi venir près de toi
Sur le grand chariot de bois et de toile
Nous nous en irons
Du côté où l'on verra le jour
Dans les premiers reflets du ciel
Avant la chaleur du soleil
Sous la dernière étoile

La plaine, la plaine, la plaine
N'aura plus de frontière
La terre, la terre, sera notre domaine
Que j'aime, que j'aime
Ce vieux chariot qui tangue
Qui tangue, qui tangue
Si tu veux de moi
Pour dormir à ton côté toujours
L'été sous la lune d'argent
L'hiver dans la neige et le vent
Alors dis-le moi, je pars avec toi

La plaine, la plaine, la plaine
N'aura plus de frontière
La terre, la terre, verra notre domaine
Que j'aime, que j'aime
Ce vieux chariot qui tremble
Qui tremble, qui tremble
Si tu veux de moi
De ma vie et de mon fol amour
Le long des torrents et des bois
Au cœur des dangers et des joies
Alors dis-le moi, je pars avec toi

Cheerio lyrics - Petula Clark


Cheerio!
Cheerio!

Wunderbare Zeit
Leider morgen schon Vergangenheit
Warum muss der Abschied denn sein?
Warum lässt du mich nun allein –
So allein?

Wunderbare Zeit
Doch mein Herz bangt vor der Einsamkeit
Wohin soll ich ohne dich geh'n?
Wird alles noch einmal so schön?
Werd' ich dich wiederseh'n?

Adio, adio, adio
Dich locken fremde Sterne
Und Länder, so ferne
Und heißt es auch adio, adio, adio –
Uns trennen keine Sterne
Noch Länder so ferne!

Keiner kann's versteh'n
Warum wieder auseinandergeh'n –
Es gibt keine Antwort darauf
Das Schicksal nimmt doch seinen Lauf
Du hältst es nicht auf –
Du hältst es nicht auf!

Adio, adio, adio
Dich locken fremde Sterne
Und Länder, so ferne
Und heißt es auch adio, adio, adio –
Uns trennen keine Sterne
Noch Länder so ferne!

Morgen bist du weit
Habe Dank für diese schöne Zeit!
Ich weiß, dass ich dich nicht verlier'
Auch vieltausend Meilen von mir –
Mein Herz bleibt bei dir –
Für immer bei dir!

Cheerio!

Cranes Flying South lyrics - Petula Clark

The dew in your hair
The rain on a river
The cold morning air
And cranes flying south

We ran through the trees
And into the valley
And stood on the breeze
Like cranes flying south

To leave the world behind us
The coldness of dispair
The chains that try to bind us
Will vanish in the air

So touch me again
And drink at the fountain
Then over the mountain
Like cranes flying south

To leave the world behind us
The coldness of dispair
The chains that try to bind us
Will vanish in the air

So touch me again
And drink at the fountain
Then over the mountain
Like cranes flying south

Cross The Border lyrics - Petula Clark

They say love goes where the stream flows
Love will cross the border
And if love shows us the way...maybe
The desert will bloom again.
I dreamed I was in Africa
beneath a cloudless sky
No food to feed my family,
No strength in me to cry

It was only a dream
thank GOD it won't come true
But the suffering I've seen
keeps haunting me through and through

But if love goes where the stream flows
Love can cross the border
And if love goes all the way...maybe
Their suffering will not be in vain
I've seen the people searching
for an answer to their pain
I can still hear them praying
for the rains to come again
And they're willing to learn
if we're willing to teach
Deep beneath the earth
there is water within our reach

They say love goes where the stream flows
Love will cross the border
and if love goes all the way....they'll see
That land growing green again

They say love goes where the stream flows
Love can cross the border
And if love goes all the way....maybe
The desert will bloom again.

Darn That Dream lyrics - Petula Clark

Darn that dream
I dream each night
You say you love me and hold me tight
But when I awake and you're out of sight
Oh, darn that dream

Darn your lips and darn your eyes
They lift me high above the moonlit sky
Then I tumble out of paradise
Oh, darn that dream

Darn that one track mind of mine
It can't understand that you don't care
Just to change the mood I'm in
I'd welcome a nice old nightmare

Darn that dream
And bless it too
Without that dream I never have you
But it haunts me and it won't come true

Oh, darn that dream
