Oxford 01:57
lyrics

Oxford Verse 1: I’m looking for a place I can call my own I’m looking for a somewhere I belong Look the bus is leaving I don’t know: The road might be long With my green suitcase, my teddy and me Verse 2: So tell me does this road lead to London town? Is it true that they can never stop the rain? A million different houses I don’t know: to me they all look the same With my A to Z, my tube guide and me Verse 3: I’m lost and I don’t know where I wanna go This London is a world within a world I’ve got a two-zone ticket I don’t know: can green hair be fun? Look a nose earring and nails painted blue Verse 4: Left London for a place I can call my own I love the funny faces on the walls Oxford tube is leaving Yes I know: the roads not to long For a real doughnut, A walk in the sun It’s a place I know: Oxford my home!

Look Out for the Man 01:51

Look out for the man Verse 1:Look out for the man with the blue blue eyes Look out for the man with the bedroom eyes He makes you believe all his cunning lies And he might just want to keep you warm tonight Verse 2: An I say no no, honey no Take your hat and your coat I don’t wanna know The passions alive and resistance low You will change my life and the you’ll leave me cold Chorus: And this is my only life Maybe my one last chance I had some fun and joy and laughs And now it s just me Verse 3: It’s hallo and goodbye Exactly what I knew This mystery man he made sure I’d loose All in a kiss I could not refuse One naked offbeat week forever changed my life Coda: And now it’s just me It’s just me Oooh it’s just me

Jessie Verse 1: She brought the spring with bluebells and brooks Rivers of love and birds that sing so brightly I lost my man: and I’m sad to say I loved him But I’m glad he found someone like you Chorus: Jessie his heart was never mine You were there long before I came Jessie his love would never die Jessie now it’s just me Verse 2: Sweet honey lips with dark shiny hair Smiling her charm: she’s twenty-one and lovely In Stellenbosch no man could quite resist you I’m the ugly one: you had it all Chorus: Jessie his heart was never mine You were there long before I came Jessie his love would never die Jessie now it’s just me Verse 3: A floral dress a touch of perfume A blossom in bloom: She’s a vision of the morning I know my man: he tried so hard to love me But no heart can lie: it’s only you… Chorus: Jessie his heart was never mine You were there long before I came Jessie his love would never die Jessie now it’s just me Coda: OO I could never be the woman you are Jessie now it’s just me Jessie now it’s just me Jessie now it’s just me

Sweet Sweet 03:27
lyrics

Sweet sweet Sweet sweet and ever so gently Sweet sweet and ever so gentle and ever so gentle you are And where do you come from love And can I follow you there? Can I follow you there? I don’t wanna feel more loneliness My whole life was filled with emptiness Hollow footsteps passing by my door I don’t know them but I wish I did Oh how many times a heart can die Without the comfort of another soul It leaves you broken, Broken as you see me So many voices, voices without names But I don’t know them ‘cause I know their eyes will bring the pain And I have a heart, I can feel the pain I know what they say I know what they say They turn my world they turn it upside down But I am human I am man

Happiness Found Me 02:25
lyrics

Happiness Recitative: Home is not a place, it’s not people It’s the you inside, the warmth you set aflutter Verse 1: I thought a New World would make me happy But it only brought new faces, new mountains, more rain I thought an old friend would make me happy So I’d bring her along and we’re off to see the world Bridge: But isn’t there more to life than this Could there be simple things we miss? Cause if you know who you are Happiness can’t be far Chorus: Happiness found me before I saw the world Happiness found me before the money Happiness found me after all my friends have gone It was the smile that reached across the room It was the eyes that touched my soul Cause if you know who you are Happiness can’t be far oh no no Verse 2: I thought more money Would make me happy But it only brought more tension, more worries more pain I thought a new love would make me happy So he took what I had and left without a word Bridge: But isn’t there more to life than this Could there be simple things we miss? Cause if you know who you are Happiness can’t be far Chorus: Happiness found me before I saw the world Happiness found me before the money Happiness found me after all my friends have gone It was the smile that reached across the room It was the eyes that touched my soul Cause if you know who you are Happiness can’t be far oh no no

How Long Can Your Love Wait? 02:52
lyrics

How long can your love wait? Tell me how long can your love wait? A lifetime is a long time Can your love wait? There’s a dream in me I have to follow through There’s a road ahead I don’t know where it leads me But don’t keep your distance I need you to call Over and over again I read your letters again I remember, do you remember The times that we were close enough The times that we were warm enough Touch and feel the rhythm of love Tell me how long can your love wait? A lifetime is a long time Can your love wait? There’s a dream in me I have to follow through There’s a road ahead I don’t know where it leads me But don’t keep your distance I need you to call Over and over again I read your letters again I remember, do you remember The times that we were close enough The times that we were warm enough Touch and feel the rhythm of love

This life is not a highway Tell me why do I still need your love Why do I still need your strength? I must I will get over you You forgot about me Long ago Your silence is killing al my love I must I will get over you Oh I’m not the same I changed a lot I’m not the woman you knew Oh I miss you tonight Wish I could take away all the tears I cried for you But I guess you knew: everything would change Oh this life is not a highway The road always turns May not know where you re It takes you to places so far You never knew you had to go Thought I had the world But I lost the world with you I never knew it’d be o hard to let you go If I knew the pain you’d bring would not have traveled this far, this far

Bly Dink Aan Jou/ I Knew Her Name Before Her Face 03:32
lyrics

I knew her name before her face Bly dink aan jou as ek my kan kry Vind my hart se voete oppad na jou sien jou saam met haar ek sien haar wen O die lewe is so kort Ek gun jou jou geluk Is jy gelukkig? Hierdie Zombie bestaan karring maar net aan En aan Dit voel vir my of iemand ‘n stukkie ‘n stukkie van my uitsny Don’t tell me somebody’s crying For that somebody’s me I’ve done my share of crying Now give me a chance to live again You say I’m making a scene and I’ve not said a word You’re kissing me and I’ve not said a word And what’s the use of crying when it’s over and done with And life, life just goes on I loose the feeling oh I stumble and fall Over memories of you And when I see you with her wonder if you ever loved meat all I knew her name before her face And there must be a bigger wheel turning, turning Ruling our lives Playing with hearts that never learn Feeling again how love can burn And then it leaves you cold alone I know her name before her face

Liefde Van Later 04:15
lyrics

Liefde van later (J.Brel/L.Nijgh) As liefde zoveel jaare kan duren , Dan moet’t ecgt wel liefde zijn. Ondaks de vele kille uren, De domme fouten en de pijn Heel deze kamer om ons heen , Waar ons bed steeds heeft gestaan Draagt sporen van een fel verleden, De wilde hartstocht lijk nu heen , De zoete rasernij vergaan, De wapens waar we toen mee streden Koor: Ik hou van jou Met heel m’n hart en ziel hou ik van jou langs zon en maan tot aan het ochtendblauw Ik nog steed van jou Jij kent nu al m’n slimme streken Ik ken allang jouw heksenspel Ik hoef niet meer om jou te smeken Jij kent m’n zwakke plekken wel Soms liet ek jou te lang alleen, Misschien is wat je deed verkeerd Maar ik had ook weleens vriendinnen We waren jong en niet van steen, Zo hebben we tocht geleerd Je kunt altyd opnieuw beginnen Koor Were hebben zoveel jaar gestreden tegen elkaar en met elkaar Maar rustig leven en tevreden is voor de liefde een gevaar Jij huilt allang niet meer zo snel Ik laat me niet zo vlug meer gaan We houden onze woorden binnen Maar al beheersen we’t spel, Een ding blijft toch altijd bestaan De zoete orlog van’t minnen. Koor:…Voorgoed van jou… Altijd van jou…
