Céline Dion Album

(Eden Ahbez)

There was a boy...
A very strange enchanted boy.
They say he wandered very far, very far
Over land and sea,
A little shy and sad of eye
But very wise was he.

And then one day,
A magic day, he passed my way.
And while we spoke of many things,
Fools and kings,
This he said to me,
"The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return."

"The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return."

(Jim Steinman)

There were nights when the wind was so cold
That my body froze in bed
If I just listened to it
Right outside the window

There were days when the sun was so cruel
That all the tears turned to dust
And I just knew my eyes were
Drying up forever

I finished crying in the instant that you left
And I can't remember where or when or how
And I banished every memory you and I had ever made

But when you touch me like this
And you hold me like that
I just have to admit
That it's all coming back to me
When I touch you like this
And I hold you like that
It's so hard to believe but
It's all coming back to me
(It's all coming back, it's all coming back to me now)

There were moments of gold
And there were flashes of light
There were things I'd never do again
But then they'd always seemed right
There were nights of endless pleasure
It was more than any laws allow
Baby Baby

If I kiss you like this
And if you whisper like that
It was lost long ago
But it's all coming back to me
If you want me like this
And if you need me like that
It was dead long ago
But it's all coming back to me
It's so hard to resist
And it's all coming back to me
I can barely recall
But it's all coming back to me now
But it's all coming back

There were those empty threats and hollow lies
And whenever you tried to hurt me
I just hurt you even worse
And so much deeper

There were hours that just went on for days
When alone at last we'd count up all the chances
That were lost to us forever

But you were history with the slamming of the door
And I made myself so strong again somehow
And I never wasted any of my time on you since then

But if I touch you like this
And if you kiss me like that
It was so long ago
But it's all coming back to me
If you touch me like this
And if I kiss you like that
It was gone with the wind
But it's all coming back to me
(It's all coming back, it's all coming back to me now)

There were moments of gold
And there were flashes of light
There were things we'd never do again
But then they'd always seemed right
There were nights of endless pleasure
It was more than all your laws allow
Baby, Baby, Baby

When you touch me like this
And when you hold me like that
It was gone with the wind
But it's all coming back to me
When you see me like this
And when I see you like that
Then we see what we want to see
All coming back to me
The flesh and the fantasies
All coming back to me
I can barely recall
But it's all coming back to me now

If you forgive me all this
If I forgive you all that
We forgive and forget
And it's all coming back to me
When you see me like this
And when I see you like that
We see just what we want to see
Al coming back to me
The flesh and the fantasies
All coming back to me
I can barely recall but it's all coming back to me now

(It's all coming back to me now)
And when you kiss me like this
(It's all coming back to me now)
And when I touch you like that
(It's all coming back to me now)
If you do it like this
(It's all coming back to me now)
And if we...

(Diane Warren)

For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful baby
You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through through it all

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand I could touch the sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me
Maybe I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by you

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

You were always there for me
The tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration
Through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

(bis)

I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

I get wings to fly... Oh-oh
I'm alive... yeah.. yeah

When you call on me
When I hear you breathe
I get wings to fly...
I feel that I'm alive

When you look at me
I can touch the sky
I know that
I'm alive

Ohh... Ooh.... alive

When you blessed the day
I just drift away
All my worries die
I'm glad that I'm alive

You set my heart on fire
Filled me with love
Made me a woman
On clouds above

I couldn't get much higher
My spirit takes flight
(My spirit takes flight)
'Cause I'm alive
('Cause I'm alive)

Ooh... never bound

(When you call on me)
When you call on me
(When I hear you breathe)
When I hear you breathe
(I get wings to fly...)
I feel that I'm alive

Oh yeah, I'm alive.

(When you reach for me)
When you reach for me
(Raising spirits high)
God knows that

That I'll be the one standing by
Through good and through trying times
And it's only begun
I can't wait for the rest of my life

(When you call on me)
When you call on me
(When you reach for me)
When you reach for me
(I get wings to fly...)
Ah-ah...
(I feel that...)

(When you blessed the day)
When you blessed, you blessed the day
(I just drift away)
I just drift away
(All my worries die)
I know that... I'm alive

Yeah...

I get wings to fly
God knows that I'm alive...

If I could
I'd protect you from the sadness in your eyes
Give you courage in a world of compromise
Yes, I would

If I could
I would teach you all the things I've never learned
And I'd help you cross the bridges that I've burned
Yes, I would

If I could
I would try to shield your innocence from time
But the part of life I gave you isn't mine
I've watched you grow
So I could let you go

If I could
I would help you make it through the hungry years
But I know that I can never cry your tears
But I would
If I could

If I live
In a time and place where you don't want to be
You don't have to walk along this road with me
My yesterday
Won't have to be your way

If I knew
I'd have tried to change the world I brought to you to
And there isn't very much that I can do
But I would
If I could...
oh baby... mummy wants to protect you
and help my baby through the hungry years
it's part of me
and if you ever... ever need
sad shoulder to cry on
I'm just someone to talk to
I'll be there... I'll be there
I didn't change your world
but I would
If I Could!

(Mack Gordon / Harry Warren)

At last my love has come along
My lonely days are over
And life is like a song

Ohh yeah yeah
At last
The skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up in clover
The night I looked at you

I found a dream, that I could speak to
A dream that I can call my own
I found a thrill to press my cheek to
A thrill that I have never known

Ohh yeah yeah

You smile, you smile
Oh and then the spell was cast
And here we are in heaven
For you are mine at last

I found a dream, that I could speak to
A dream that I can call my own
I found a thrill to press my cheek to
A thrill that I have never known

Ohh yeah yeah

You smile, you smile
Oh and then the spell was cast
And here we are in heaven
For you are mine at last

At last... at last

Never know how much I love you
Never know how much I care
When you put your arms around me
I get a fever that's so hard to bear

Chorus:

You give me fever, when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever in the morning
Fever all through the night

Everybody's got the fever
That is something you should know
Fever isn't such a new scene
Fever started long ago

Romeo loved Juliet
Juliet, she felt the same
When he put his arms around her
He said Julie baby, you're my flame
He gave her fever

You give me fever, when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever in the morning
Fever all through the night

Captain Smith and Pocahontas
Had a very mad affair
When her daddy tried to kill him
She said, daddy oh don't you dare
He gives me fever
With his kisses
Fever when he holds me tight
Fever, I'm his Misses
Daddy, won't you treat him right

Fever, when you kiss them
Fever, if you live and learn
Fever, 'til you sizzle
What a lovely way to burn.

I've got the world on a string
Sitting on a rainbow
Got that string around my finger
What a world, what a life, I'm in love

I've got a song that I sing
I can make the rain go
Anytime I move my finger
Look at me... Can't you see I'm in love?

Life's a beautiful thing
Long as I hold that string
I'd be a silly so-and-so
If I should ever let you go

I've got the world on a string
Sitting on a rainbow
Got that string around my finger
What a world, what a life, I'm in love

Life's a beautiful thing
Long as I hold that string
I'd be a silly so-and-so
If I should ever let you go

I've got the world on a string
Sitting on a rainbow
Got that string around my finger
What a world, what a life, I'm so in looooooooove

(Jean-Jacques Goldman)

Ici l'automne chasse un été de plus
La 4L est morte on a repeint la rue
Elise a deux dents, Petit-Jean est grand et fort
J'apprends la guitare, j'en suis à trois accords

J'ai trouvé des girolles au marché ce matin
J'aimerais vivre à Rome, oh j'aimerais bien
J'ai planté des tulipes, elles tardent à éclore
C'est tout je crois, ah oui, je t'aime encore

Mais où es-tu ?
Aussi loin sans même une adresse
Et que deviens-tu ?
L'espoir est ma seule caresse

J'ai coupé mes cheveux, " enfin " dirais-tu
Ça m'a fait bizarre, mais j'ai survécu
On m'invite, on me désire et je danse et je sors
Et quand je danse, je t'aime encore

Mais où es-tu ?
Aussi loin sans même une adresse
Et que deviens-tu ?
L'attente est ma seule caresse

Et je t'aime encore
Comme dans les chansons banales
Et ça me dévore
Et tout le reste m'est égal

De plus en plus fort
A chaque souffle à chaque pas
Et je t'aime encore
Et toi tu ne m'entends pas

Looking back on when I was a little nappyheaded boy
then my only worry was for Christmas what would be my toy.
Even though we sometimes would not get a thing
we were happy with the joy the day would bring.
Sneakin' out the back door to hangout
with those hoodlum friends of mine.

Ooh
greeted at the back door with
Boy, I thought I told you not to go outside.
Tryin' the best to bring the water to your eyes
thinkin' it might stop her from whoopin' your behind.

I wish these days could come back once more.
Why did those days ever have to go?
I wish those days could come back once more.
Why did those days ever have to go
'cause I loved them so.

Do do do do do do do do do do do do
do do do do do do do do do do do do.

Brother says he's tellin'
'Bout you playin' doctor with that girl
Just don't tell
I'll give you
Anything you want in this whole wide world.
mama gives you money for Sunday school
You trade yours for candy after church is through.

Smokin' cigarettes and writing something
nasty on the wall (you nasty boy).
Teacher sends you to the principal's office down the hall.
You grow up and learn that kinda thing ain't right
But while you were doin't it - it sure felt outta sight.

I wish those days could come back once more.
Why did those days ever have to go?
I wish those days could come back once more.
Why did those days ever have to go?
'Cause I loved them so.

(Steinberg, Billy / Kelly, Tom)

I had to escape
The city was sticky and cruel
Maybe I should have called you first
But I was dying to get to you
I was dreaming while I drove
The long straight road ahead, uh, huh

Could taste your sweet kisses
Your arms open wide
This fever for you is just burning me up inside

I drove all night to get to you
Is that alright
I drove all night
Crept in your room
Woke you from your sleep
To make love to you
Is that alright
I drove all night

What in this world
Keeps us from tearing apart
No matter where I go I hear
The beating of our one heart
I think about you
When the night is cold and dark
No one can move me
The way that you do
Nothing erases the feeling between me and you

I drove all night to get to you
Is that alright
I drove all night
Crept in your room
Woke you from your sleep
To make love to you
Is that alright
I drove all night

Could taste your sweet kisses
Your arms open wide
This fever for you is just burning me up inside

I drove all night to get to you
Is that alright
I drove all night
Crept in your room
Is that alright

I drove all night
I drove all night to get to you
Is that alright
I drove all night
Crept in your room
Woke you from your sleep

(James Horner, Will Jennings)

Every night in my dreams
I see you, I feel you,
That is how I know you go on

Far across the distance
And spaces between us
You have come to show you go on

Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

Love can touch us one time
And last for a lifetime
And never let go till we're one

Love was when I loved you
One true time I hold to
In my life we'll always go on

Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

There is some love that will not go away

You're here, there's nothing I fear,
And I know that my heart will go on
We'll stay forever this way
You are safe in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

(Thank you...so very much!
I would like... on behalf of all the dancers,
the musicians, the singers, the technicians...
people you didn't even see during the show tonight,
who are part of this amazing family!
I want you to know that we loved performing for you...
I loved singing for you... you were a great audience! Thank you very much!)

I see trees of green... red roses too
I see 'em bloom... for me and for you
And I think to myself... what a wonderful world.

I see skies of blue... and clouds of white
Bright blessed days.... warm sacred nights
And I think to myself... what a wonderful world.

The colors of a rainbow... so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces... of people going by
I see friends shaking hands.....sayin'.. how do you do?
They're really sayin'... I love you.

I hear babies cry... I watch them grow
They'll learn much more... than I'll never know
And I think to myself... what a wonderful world

Yes, I think to myself... what a wonderful world... oh yeah!

Written By: Aldo Nova and Jacques Duval

High above the mountains
far across the sea
I can hear your voice
calling out to me

Brighter than the sun
and darker than the night
I can see your love
shining like a light

And on and on this Earth spins
like a caroussel
If I could travel across the world
these secrets
I would tell

You and I
were meant to fly
higher than the clouds we'll sail across the sky
So come with me
and you will feel
that we're soaring
that we're floating up so high
'couse you and I were meant to fly

Sailing like a bird
high on the wings of love
take me higher than all the stars above
I'm burning, yearning, gently turning round and round
I'm always rising up
I'd never want to come back down

You and I
were meant to fly
higher than the clouds we'll sail across the sky
So come with me (so come with me)
and you will feel (and you will feel)
that we're soaring
that we're floating up so high
'couse you and I were meant to flyyyyyyyy

oooooooohhh flyyyyyyyyyyy
ooooooh yeaaaah

You and I
were meant to fly (were meant to fly)
higher than the clouds we'll sail across the sky
So come with me (so come with me)
and you will feel (and you will feel)
That you and I were meant tooooo flyyyyyyyy, ohhhh

You and I were meant to fly.

Used to be easy
used to have truth hanging round
never had secrets
always singing your praises now good and loud
All I got is questions
and you left me wondering why
why you keep your distance every lonely night
when love was bound together
we lived it by the letter
can't close my eyes forever
'cause everything has changed and now...

I ain't gonna look the other way... no more
after all the clouds go by it's just another empty sky.
I ain't gonna wait to see the rain... no no
nothing's gonna make it right
look at me 'cause I choose life

It's all about giving
it's not about winning the game
my mind was open
ready or not you closed it up again
still I keep asking
if you got something to hide
I never stop learning all the reasons why
it took about a minute
to find the point and hit it
gotta take this life and live it
'cause everything has changed and now...

I ain't gonna look the other way... no more
after all the clouds go by it's just another empty sky
I ain't gonna wait to see the rain... no no
nothing's gonna make it right
look at me cause I choose life

When all the lights go out
so suddenly I lose my way
so baby tell me is something going on
you gotta free me
this time I'm gonna be strooooong

(I ain't gonna look the other)...waaaaay... no more
after all the clouds go by it's just another empty sky
I ain't gonna wait to see the raaaaain... no no
nothing's gonna make it right
look at me cause I choose life

(I ain't gonna look the other way) nothing, nothing, nothing oh nooo
(after all the clouds go by) after all the clouds go by
(it's just another empty sky) skyyyyy
(I ain't gonna wait to see the rain) I ain't gonna wait to see the rain
(nothing's gonna make it right) nothing's gonna make it right
(look at me cause I choose life) Liiiiiiiiiiiiife
no no
oooooh aaaah ooooooh

Gonna do it gonna make it alright
gonna do it gonna choose this life
(nothing's gonna make it right) nothing's gonna make it right
(look at me cause I choose life) oooooooooh baby
nothing's gonna make it right
ooooh
it used to be easy
it's not about...
