Faithfull Forever

Marianne Faithfull Faithfull Forever Lyrics
1.Counting

Now is the glimmering spinning beginning
Of something I've prayed for and counted the minutes
To be in the shadows of sheltering meadows
Of night, here with you in my arms.

This is the moment that pauses to hold us
As you and I move in a background of wonder,
Surrounded by countless enclosures
Of nocturnal unspoken music of joy.

Counting times you have stood at the foot of my ivory tower
And waited, and called out my name by the hour,
And counted on the wings of my heartstrings
To carry the sound, I have counted on pleading,
You see how I need you, come down.

And now between twilight and midnight I come to you,
Down in my gown of soft moonbeams and starlight,
Bright is the evening, the breezes have fenced us
And nestled against us

You're here
And warm.

And mine till the time
When the dawn will awake you,
The morning will shake you,
The highway will take you.

But now all the rays of the moon making bouquets
Will swim through the luster of lingering street lights
We count on the night to hold everything even,
And count on forgetting that you will be leaving,
And destiny's folded and then in the dawn you'll be gone.

But now as the gardens of softening night time
Are blossoming slowly around where we are,
You and I come together
And walk through the dreams of the stars.

So here while the song of the deepening evening
Is singing to me from the light in your eyes,
We can count on each other to move to the beach of tomorrow
And know where we've been.


2.Tomorrow's Calling

Tomorrow's calling with promises new
I hear the echo of yesterday's blue.

Silver patterns of porcelain rose
Cobwebs of filley green.
Where I get them from nobody knows,
No one but you can see.

All the treasures of time will be there,
Take them away, they're free.
The finest thing is a love that we'll share
If you will follow me.

If I were foolish I'd promise the sky.
But I must not let my hopes run too high.

And I wonder when all's said and done
What will the future be ?
All I know is that you are the one
If you will follow me.

If you will follow me.
If you will follow me.

And I wonder when all is said and done
What will the future be ?
All I know is that you are the one
If you will follow me,
If you will follow me,
If you will follow me.

Tomorrow's calling with promises new
I hear the echo of yesterday's blue.

I hear the echo of yesterday's blue.
I hear the echo of yesterday's blue.


3.The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face(Version 1)

The first time ever I saw your face
I saw the sun rise in your eyes
That the moon and stars were a gift you gave
To the dark and the empty skies, my love,
To the dark and the empty skies.

The first time ever I kissed your mouth
And felt the earth move close to mine
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command, my love,
That was there at my command.

The first time ever I lay with you
And felt your heart beat close to mine,
I thought our joy would never end
And would last till the end of time, my love,
And would last till the end of time.


4.With You in Mind

I'll take a walk all by myself
So I can think of nothing else
But loving you when we find time.
These are the things I'll do with you in mind.

I'll pick a rose and feel the thorn
Every day that you are gone
A new memory to live I'll find.
These are the things I'll do with you in mind.

There'll come a day when I can live
To go and bring you back to me.
We'll dance and sing and toast someone.
There are the things I'll do with you in mind.
There are the things I'll do with you in mind.


5.In the Night Time

Lyrics:Hampstead Incident
Music:Hampstead Incident

Standing by the Everyman, digging the rigging on my sail
Rain to the sound of harpsichords, to the spell of fairy tale.
The heath was hung in magic mist, enchanted dripping glades,
I'll taste a taste until my mind drifts from this scene and
fades
In the night time.

Crystals sparkles in the grass, I polish them with thought.
On my lash there in my eye a star of light is caught.
Fortunes told in grains of sand, here I am is all I know.
Candy stuck in children's hair, everywhere I go
In the night time.

Crystals sparkles in the grass, I polish them with thought.
On my lash there in my eye a star of light is caught.
Fortunes told in grains of sand, here I am is all I know
Candy stuck in children's hair, everywhere I go
In the night time.

In the night time.
In the night time.
In the night time ...


6.Ne Me Quitte Pas

Non, je ne pourrai jamais vivre sans toi,
Je ne pourrai pas, ne pars pas, j'en mourrai!
Un instant sans toi et je n'existe pas,
Mais mon amour, ne me quitte pas.

Mon amour, je t'attendrai toute ma vie,
Reste près de moi, reviens, je t'en supplie!
J'ai besoin de toi, je veux vivre pour toi,
Oh, mon amour, ne me quitte pas.

Ils se sont séparés sur le quai d'une gare.
Ils se sont éloignés dans un dernier regard.
Oh, je t'aime! ne me quitte pas.

Non, je ne pourrai jamais vivre sans toi,
Je ne pourrai pas, ne pars pas, j'en mourrai!
Un instant sans toi et je n'existe pas,
Oh, mon amour, ne me quitte pas.

Mon amour, je t'attendrai toute ma vie,
Reste près de moi, reviens, je t'en supplie!
J'ai besoin de toi, je veux vivre pour toi,
Oh, mon amour, ne me quitte pas.


7.Monday Monday

Monday, Monday
So good to me.
Monday morning
It was all I hoped it would be.

Oh Monday morning
Monday morning couldn't guarantee
That Monday evening
You would still be here with me.

Monday, Monday
Can't trust the day.
Monday, Monday
Sometimes it just turns out that way.

On Monday morning
You gave me no warning
Of what was to be.
On Monday, Monday
How could you leave
And not take me ?

Every other day
Every other day
Every other day
Of the week is fine, yeah.

But whenever Monday comes
But whenever Monday comes
You can find me crying
All of the time.

Monday, Monday
So good to me.
Monday morning
It was all I hoped it would be.
Oh Monday morning,
Monday morning couldn't guarantee
That Monday evening
You would still be here with me.

Every other day
Every other day
Every other day
Of the week is fine, yeah.

But whenever Monday comes
But whenever Monday comes
You can find me crying
All of the time.

Monday, Monday,
Can't trust the day.
Monday, Monday,
Don't go away.

Oh, Monday, Monday,
Don't go away.
Oh, Monday, Monday ...


8.Some Other Spring

Some other spring I'll try to love,
Now I still cling to faded blossoms.
Fresh when one left crushed and torn
Like the love affair I'm on.

Some other spring, when twilight falls,
Will the night bring another to me ?
Not your kind will let me find
It's not true that love is blind.

Sun shines around me,
But deep in my heart, it's cold as ice.
Love wants you for me,
But can the story be told twice ?

Some other spring will my heart ring
Stirring to sing love's magic music.
Then forget the old duet
Find love with some other spring.


9.That's Right Baby

That's right baby,
It seems to me you've won.
Slip tight, baby,
You had a lot of fun.

You tried to make a fool of me
And I'm the fool who just couldn't see.

That's right baby,
Laugh until you cry.
Good night baby,
But may I ask you why ?

I gave you everything I had
Babe, that couldn't be so bad ?

I wonder why there's no tear in your eye.
I wonder why there's love left for me.

That's right baby
Get it while you can.
Look right baby
You'll see with another man.

While you're waiting all alone
You'll try to call but I won't be home.


10.Lucky Girl

Thank you for the love you bring
This lucky girl.
You have given everything
To this lucky girl.

I thought fairy tales did not come true,
Now I can't be sure since I met you.
Please, take my love.

When you love me with your eyes
I'm a lucky girl.
Makes me almost realise
I'm a lucky girl.

If you would leave our love would surely die
The world to me is only you and I.
Please, take my love.

It's all I can give to you
Fort what it's worth
It seems as long, as long as I'm here
With you.

Darling I'll always be
Your lucky girl.
Then one kiss before you leave
It's lucky girl.

Yes, it's getting late now but now you know
That I just can't bear to see you go.
So take my love,
Take my love,
Please, take my love.


11.I'm the Sky

I'm the sky
'Cause the sky doesn't sing in my song in the wind.
I can dodge
Both your eyes with my smile
'Cause I'm singing my song.

It's love, it's mine,
It's yours, it's life,
It's free.

It's love, it's mine,
It's yours, it's life,
It's free.

Long ago
I was blinded, my mind couldn't see
The world's sorrow.
Every place that I went in the stillness
I left people alone.

It's love, it's mine,
It's yours, it's life,
It's free.

It's love, it's mine,
It's yours, it's life,
It's free.

Till one day
In the spring, in the springtime I saw a good day
And I heard as a child laughing wild
That I heard you can grow.

It's love, it's mine,
It's yours, it's life,
It's free.

It's love, it's mine,
It's yours, it's life,
It's free.

When you grow
In the springtime you'll sing loudly songs in your soul
In the air you can feel all the life
And the force you've been weary.

It's love, it's mine,
It's yours, it's life,
It's free.

It's love, it's mine,
It's yours, it's life,
It's free.

It's love, it's mine,
It's yours, it's life,
It's free.


12.I Have a Love

I have a love and it's all that I have
Right or wrong, what else can I do ?
I love him, I'm his,
And every thing he is
I am, too.

I have a love and he's all that I need,
Right or wrong, and he needs me, too.
I love him, we're one.
There's nothing to be done.
Not a thing I can do

But hold him,
Hold him forever.
Be with him now
Tomorrow and all of my life.

When love comes so strong
There is no right or wrong.
Your love is your own.
