Ne Me Quitte Pas

Nina Simone Ne Me Quitte Pas Lyrics
1.Ne Me Quitte Pas

Jacques brel

Ne me quitte pas
Il faut oublier
Tout peut s'oublier
Qui s'enfuit d?Oublier le temps
Des malentendus
Et le temps perdu
A savoir comment
Oublier ces heures
Qui tuaient parfois
A coups de pourquoi
Le coeur du bonheur

Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas

Moi je t'offrirai
Des perles de pluie
Venues de pays
Oþ il ne pleut pas
Je creuserai la terre
Jusqu'apr ma mort
Pour couvrir ton corps
D'or et de lumie
Je ferai un domaine
Oþ l'amour sera roi
Oþ l'amour sera loi
Oþ tu seras reine

Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas

Je t'inventerai
Des mots insens
Que tu comprendras
Je te parlerai
De ces amants-l?Qui ont vu deux fois
Leurs coeurs s'embraser
Je te raconterai
L'histoire de ce roi
Mort de n'avoir pas
Pu te rencontrer

Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas

On a vu souvent
Rejaillir le feu
De l'ancien volcan
Qu'on croyait trop vieux
Il est para§t-il
Des terres bruls
Donnant plus de bl?Qu'un meilleur avril
Et quand vient le soir
Pour qu'un ciel flamboie
Le rouge et le noir
Ne s'ousent-ils pas

Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas

Ne me quitte pas
Je ne vais plus pleurer
Je ne vais plus parler
Je me cacherai l?A te regarder
Danser et sourire
Et ?t'outer
Chanter et puis rire
Laisse-moi devenir
L'ombre de ton ombre
L'ombre de ta main
L'ombre de ton chien

Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas


2.Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood

(1964) gloria caldwell, sol marcus, bennie benjamin

Baby you understand me now
If sometimes you see i'm mad
Doncha know that no one alive can always be an angel?
When everything goes wrong you see some bad

Well i'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

Ya know sometimes baby i'm so carefree
With a joy that's hard to hide
Then sometimes it seems again that all i have is worry
And then you burn to see my other side

But i'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

If i seem edgy
I want you to know
I never meant to take it out on you
Life has its problems
And i get more than my share
But that's me one thing i never mean to do

Cos i love you
Oh baby
I'm just human
Don't you know i have faults like anyone?

Sometimes i find myself alone regretting
Some little fooling thing
Some simple thing that i've done

I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

I try so hard
So don't let me be misunderstood


3.Just In Time

(1960) jule styne, adolph green, betty comden

Let's go

Just in time you've found me just in time
Before you came my time was running low
I was lost the losing dice were tossed
My bridges all were crossed nowhere to go
Now you hear now i know just where i'm going
No more doubt of fear i've found my way
For love came just in time you've found me just in time
And changed my lonely nights that lucky day

Just in time

Before you came my time was running low oh baby
I was lost the losing dice were tossed
My bridges all crossed nowhere to go
Now you hear now i know just where i'm going
No more doubt of fear i've found my way
For love came just in time you've found me just in time
And changed my lonely nights and changed my lonely nights
And changed my lonely nights and changed my lonely nights
And changed my lonely nights that lucky day


4.See-line Woman

George bass

Yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Alright ye

See-line woman
She drink coffee
She drink tea
And then go home
See-line woman

See-line woman
Dressed in green
Wears silk stockings
With golden seams
See-line woman

See-line woman
Dressed in red
Make a man lose his head
See-line woman

See-line woman
Black dress on
For a thousand dollars
She wail and she moan
See-line woman

Wiggle wiggle
Turn like a cat
Wink at a man
And he wink back
Now child
See-line woman

Empty his pockets
And wreck his days
Make him love her
And she'll fly away

See-line woman
Take it on out now
Empty his pockets
And she wreck his days
And she make him love her
Then she sure fly away
She got a black dress on
For a thousand dollars
She wail and she moan...


5.House Of The Rising Sun

Traditional

There is a house in new orleans
Call it the rising sun
And it's been the ruin
Of many a poor girl
And me, oh lord, i'm one

If i'd listened what my mama said
Be at home today
Bein' so young
And foolish, my lord
Let a gambler lead me astray

My mother was a tailor
Sews new blue jeans
My sweetheart's is a drunkarad, lord
Drinks down in new orleans

Go tell my baby sister
Never do what i have done
Shun that house in new orleans
They call it the rising sun

Goin' back to new orleans
Race is almost run
Goin' back to spend my life
Beneath, beneath, beneath, oh lord
Beneath, oh now
Beneath the rising, rising sun
Now, now

You come on bye


6.When I Was A Young Girl

Sebastian mure

When i was a young girl i used to see pleasure
When i was a young girl i used to drink ale
Right out of the ale house and into the jail house
Right out of the bar room and down to my grave

Come mama come papa sit you beside me
Come mama come papa and pity my case
My poor heart is aching my heart it is breaking
My body salve-aided and i'm bound to die

Go send for the preacher to come and pray for me
Go send for the doctor to heal up my
My poor heart is aching my heart it is breaking
My body salve-aided and hell is my home

I want three young ladies to bear up my coffin
I want three young ladies to take me along
I want them to carry a bunch of wild roses
To put on my body as i pass along

One morning one morning in may
One morning one morning in may
I spy this young lady all clad in white linnen
All clad in white linnen cold as a clay

When i was a young girl i used to see pleasure
When i was a young girl i used to drink ale
Right out of the bar room
Right out of the ale house and into the jail house
Right out of the bar room down to my grave

8.Baubles, Bangles And Beads

Wright, forrest

Baubles bangles hear how they ring ching-a-lingle
Baubles bangles bright shiny heads sparkles spangles
My heart will sing sing-a-linge
Wearing baubles bangles and beads

I glitter and gleam so make somebody dream
So that some day he may buy me
A ring a-ling a-ling a-ling a-ling
A-ling a-ling a-ling a-lingle
I've heard that's where it leads
Wearing baubles bangles and beads

13.I Loves You Porgy

(1935) ira gershwin, dubose heyward, george gershwin

I loves you, porgy,
Don't let him take me
Don't let him handle me
And drive me mad
If you can keep me
I wanna stay here with you forever
And i'll be glad

Yes i loves you, porgy,
Don't let him take me
Don't let him handle me
With his hot hands
If you can keep me
I wants to stay here with you forever
I've got my man

I loves you, porgy,
Don't let him take me
Don't let him handle me
And drive me mad
If you can keep me
I wanna stay here with you forever
I've got my man

Someday i know he's coming to call me
He's going to handle me and hold me
So, it' going to be like dying, porgy
When he calls me
But when he comes i know i'll have to go

I loves you, porgy,
Don't let him take me
Honey, don't let him handle me
And drive me mad
If you can keep me
I wanna stay here with you forever
I've got my man


14.Spring Is Here

Richard rodgers, lorenz hart

Sprinh is here
Why doesn't my heart go dancing
Spring is here
Why isn't the waltz entrancing
No desire no ambition leads me
Maybe it's becaus nobody needs me

Spring is here
Why doesn't the breeze delight me
Stars appear
Why doesn't the night invite me
But maybe it's because nobody loves me
Spring is here i hear
Somebody told me spring is here


15.Blue Prelude

Gordon jenkins, joe bishop

Let me sigh, let me cry when i'm blue,
Let me go away from this lonely town,
Won't be long till my sun will be blue,
Cos i know i'm on my last go round.
All the love i could steal, beg or borrow,
Wouldn't heal all the pain in my soul.

What is love? only a prelude to sorrow,
With a heartbreak ahead for your goal,
Here i go - now you know why i'm leaving.
Got the blues. what can i lose? goodbye!

What is love? only a prelude to sorrow,
With a heartbreak ahead for your goal,
Here i go - now you know why i'm leaving.
I got the blues. what can i lose? goodbye!


16.Since My Love Has Gone

(1853) wasserman, aaron neville

Oh i'm lonely and left with tears and sorrow
I can't face tomorrow since my love has gone
He's left me left me for another and my heart went with him
How can i go on

Was our love a game played for a day
Were you pretending two hearts gone astray
Am i to blame for this unhappy ending

Nothing else is left me but a memory
Beloved how i long to hold you in my arms enfold you
Live again out happiness but now i can face tomorrow alone
Since my love has gone


17.Black Is The Color Of My True Love's Hair

Traditional

Black is the color of my true love's hair
His face so soft and wondrous fair
The purest eyes
And the strongest hands
I love the ground on where he stands
I love the ground on where he stands

Black is the color of my true love's hair
Of my true love's hair
Of my true love's hair

Oh i love my lover
And where he goes
Yes, i love the ground on where he goes
And still i hope
That the time will come
When he and i will be as one
When he and i will be as one

So black is the color of my true love's hair
Black is the color of my true love's hair
Black is the color of my true love's hair
