Saint Etienne Album

Il n'y a pas grand monde ce soir, deux mille spectateurs environ. À toute à l'heure.

Inter football, France football. Une emission du Service des Sports présenté par Jacques Vendroux.

Inter football, France football. Présenté en direct du stade de Saint Ouen—que.... non, Saint Étienne!

When you were young
And on
Your own,
How did it feel
To be
Alone?
I was always thinking,
Games that I was playing,
Trying to make the best of my time.

But only love
Can break
Your heart;
Try to be sure
Right from
The start.
Yes, only love
Can break
Your heart,
But if your world
Should fall
Apart...

I have a friend
I've nev- -er seen
He hides his head
Inside
A dream
Someone should call him
And see if he can come out,
Try to lose the gang that he's found.

But only love
Can break
Your heart;
Try to be sure
Right from
The start.
Yes, only love
Can break
Your heart,
But if your world
Should fall
Apart...

I was always thinking,
I was always thinking.
I was always thinking,
I was always thinking.
I was always thinking,
I was always thinking.
I was always thinking.

I was always thinking,
Games that I was playing.
I was always thinking,
Games that I was playing.
I was always thinking,
I was always thinking.
I was always thinking,
I was always thinking.
I - / I - / I - / I - /
I was always thinking,
Games that I was playing.
I was always thinking,
Games that I was playing.
I was always thinking,
Games that I was playing.
I was always thinking,
Games that I was playing.

(This is a sample collage, with the same samples repeated many, many times. But I can at least tell you what the individual bits are...)

Would you like some sweets, Willy? What would you like then?

Can I have, one of these, and one of these, and two of those, please?

Come on, auntie, we'll miss the bus!

B.L.T. Mr and Mrs J A(?) Summers.

Here's Bertie(?)!

L.S.D.

It's the new money, you know.

You know the hurts
So deep
That I cant sleep or eat,
And what Im hoping for
Is to feel your kisses sweet.
If we could just talk
Things might be a little more clear.
I really need the chance
To explain the way I feel.

I cant sleep (cant sleep),
Thinking of you constantly,
I cant sleep (cant sleep),
Wishing you were here with me.
I cant sleep (cant sleep
Where are you please(? ))

When I get home from work,
Sit down and watch tv,
The night falls
Just like a bad dream.

I cant sleep (cant sleep),
Thinking of you constantly,
I cant sleep (cant sleep),
Wishing you were here with me.
I cant sleep (cant sleep
Where are you please(? ))

I cant sleep (cant sleep),
Thinking of you constantly,
I cant sleep (cant sleep),
Wishing you were here with me.
I cant sleep (cant sleep
Where are you please(? ))

I’ll write to you now
From somewhere you won’t find me
A different place, a different time
Together that Summer
We raised some hell, yeah
But I couldn’t forget you’re a kiss and tell

Where’s her boyfriend...?

If I hadn’t met you
Suppose we’d still be lovers
There’d still be the fights
And I’d ladder my tights

Dry your eyes, boy, there's no need to be sad
Forget about yesterday and the bad times that you've had
You've loved and lost and now you're feeling so blue
But can't you see it's me who really loves you?

With the love I've got you'll forget about her
And find it easy to live without her

It's only Spring time
Oh, you're too young to say you're through with love
It's only Spring time
And I'll be different, boy
I promise you, I swear to you

Once more you tell me you're glad we are friends
You say your heart's been broken again
How many times have you looked into my eyes?
Don't you realise we're two of a kind?

With the love I've got you'll forget about her
And find it easy to live without her

It's only Spring time
And you're too young to say you're through with love
It's only Spring time
And I'll be different, boy
I'll be different, I swear to you

I've been watching all your love affairs
Three years now - don't you think I care?
How many times have you looked into my eyes?
Don't you realise we're two of a kind?

It's only Spring time
You're too young to say I'm through with love
It's only Spring time
And I'll be different
I'll be different, boy

She's the one, she's the one
She's the girl who thinks nothing of
Breaking up two people in love

She's the one, she's the one
I saw her again last night
I saw her with another guy

She's the one, she's the one
An endless world of ups and downs
She's the one

He kissed me, he kissed me
He hit me and it felt like a kiss

[intro sample:]
"Anyway, let's get on - are you ready? Finger, you put your finger on the thing, that's it, right... let's have a look at today's Countdown conundrum!"

Instrumental

(Sample)
Thank you every - come on,
give her a proper Liverpool hand you can do better than that!
And now, ladies and gentlemen what you've been waiting for.

(sung)
I've come a long way
(spoken)
I've come a long long way since the day you walked into mylife
(sung)
You walked into my life
(spoken)
You smoothed out all of the rough edges with your sweet
love and devotion
(sung)
I was tired, in love like a fool
(spoken)
I was tired of living the life of a fool I was wondering
where I'd gone wrong
(sung)
But I know it's gonna work out fine
(spoken)
But I know it's gonna work out fine when I see that
look in your eyes

CHORUS
yeah
I've never felt so good
I've never felt so strong
Nothing can stop us now
No, no, no, no

(sung)
I've heard some people say
(spoken)
Yeah nothing can stop us now I've heard people
say that a man who needs a woman is weak
(sung) So wrong oh they're so wrong
(spoken)
But they'te so wrong because nobody can hide from love
(sung)
Ooh do you want to know
(spoken)
Do you want to know, do you want to know something else that'strue?
(sung)
It's true it's true just the touch of your hand, wo-oh
(spoken)
Just the touch of your hand and I know we can make it

CHORUS

I've never felt so strong
I've never felt so good
Nothing can stop us now.

Nothing, nothing etc.

You only call? Well, let's go visit Mr. More. Your eight hundred, and I'll raise twenty-five hundred bucks.
I can't stand it
South. I'm going south.
South Street Seaport, the man says. Can't stand the heat, you can't stand it.
You wanna play cards? The bet is two and a half thou.
The bet? I'll tell you what the bet is. And I'll raise you six thousand dollars.
You son of a bitch, you've been steamrolling over me all night! What are you trying to tell me? One card, you've got a flush, a full, what? I think you're bluffing, pal. I think you're trying to buy it.
Then you're going to have to give me some respect, or give me some money.
I think you're bluffing.
What are you, Joe Capp? I didn't ask what you think. Raise, call, or fold.
I should raise your ass. But I'm just gonna call.
My marker's good for the money.
What is this marker? Where are you from?
Where am I from? I'm from the United States Of Kiss My Ass!

Took a tube to Camden Town
Walked down Park Way and settled down
In the shade of the willow tree
Summer hovering over me

Close my eyes
Breathe out slowly
Today the sunshine
Loves me only

To the sound of the World of Twist
You leant over and gave me a kiss
It's too warm to even hold hands
But that won't stop us from making plans

Close our eyes
Breathe out slowly
Today London
Loves us only

Do you ever wonder where we've been?
Do you ever wonder where we're going?
Just close your eyes
Just close your eyes

Just close your eyes
And breathe out slowly
Tonight the world
Loves you only

She's like the swallow that flies away
She's like the river that never runs dry
She's like the sunshine on the lea-shore
I love my love, the love is no more

It's out of roses she made out of bed
A stolen pillow for her head
She's like the sunshine on the lea-shore
I love my love, the love is no more

Oh, babe, I know you’ve gone
I won’t be sad for long
‘Cause the song that you left me
Has the sweetest refrain
