CeliNe Dion

Rising from humble beginnings in the small town of Charlemagne, Quebec, Celine Dion became one of the biggest international stars in pop music history, selling more than 100 million albums worldwide. The youngest in Adhemar and Therese Dion's family of 14 children, Dion grew up in an environment full of the inherent chaos and material austerity that comes with such a large working-class family. However, the Dion household was also one filled with love for children and music, and her parents and siblings were important figures in the early development of her singing career. Celine Dion began singing in her parents' piano bar when she was just five years old. By the age of 12 she had written one of her first songs, "Ce N'etait Qu'un Rêve" ("It Was Only a Dream"), which she recorded with the help of her mother and brother and shipped off to a manager named Rene Angelil, whose name they found on the back of an album by Ginette Reno, a popular Francophone singer. After weeks with no response from Angelil, Celine's brother Michel phoned him and said, "I know you haven't listened to the tape, because if you had, you would've called right away." Angelil dug up the tape and called the family back the same day to set up a meeting with Celine. When the 12-year-old performed in his office in Montreal, Angelil cried and set in motion the process of making her a Quebecois, and later international star. He mortgaged his house to pay for her first two albums, producing a local number one single. In 1983 she became the first Canadian to have a gold record in France and she won a gold medal at the Yamaha songwriting competition in Japan. Her worldwide reputation was in the making, but success in the United States was not yet forthcoming.

 

When she was 18, Dion saw Michael Jackson performing on television and told Angelil that she wanted to be a star like him. Angelil's response was to order her to take 18 months off to remake her image. Dion underwent a physical transformation, cutting her hair, plucking her eyebrows, and having her teeth capped to cover up the incisors that had caused a Quebec humor magazine to dub her "Canine Dion." She was also sent off to English school to polish the language that would help her to break into the American market. When she emerged from this process, she had made an amazing transformation from teen star to adult chanteuse.

 

The payoff came almost immediately. Her 1990 breakthrough album, Unison, was released in the U.S. by Epic Records and produced several hit songs, but it was her duet with Peabo Bryson on the theme song of Disney's Beauty and the Beast that was her true breakthrough. The song reached number one on the pop charts and won both a Grammy and an Academy award. "Beauty and the Beast" was also featured on her second English album, 1992's Celine Dion, which launched another Top Ten American hit with "If You Asked Me To," while spawning two additional Top 40 singles, "Nothing Broken But My Heart" and "Love Can Move Mountains."

 

During this time there were also important developments in Dion's personal life. In 1988 Angelil crossed the line from manager to romantic partner when he kissed Dion one night after a show in Dublin. Fearful that fans would find the 26-year difference in their ages unsettling, the couple kept their relationship a secret for several years. But their 1994 wedding in Montreal's Notre Dame Basilica was celebrated not only by the 250 invited guests, but by millions of fans worldwide.

 

One of the hardest working stars in show business, Dion continued to record and perform on a schedule that would kill most people. She recorded six albums between 1992 and 1996, when her album Falling Into You took her to a new level of stardom. The recording was a runaway hit, winning Grammys for both Album of the Year and Best Pop Album. 1996 also brought her another honor; she was asked to perform at the opening ceremonies of the Atlanta Olympics. Dion's longest tenure on the pop charts would come the following year, however, when she recorded "My Heart Will Go On," the theme song for James Cameron's blockbuster movie Titanic. "My Heart Will Go On" became omnipresent on the radio as Titanic fever swept the world and when it was featured on her album Let's Talk About Love it helped propel that recording to the top of the charts. By then, Dion had the power to gather a supporting cast of stars and the album contained an amazing collection of artists, including Barbra Streisand, Luciano Pavarotti, and the Bee Gees. The album would win a host of awards and bring Dion a whole new world of fans.

 

Her appearance on VH1's Divas Live special with Aretha Franklin, Gloria Estefan, Mariah Carey, and Shania Twain proved popular as well and helped solidify Dion's position amongst not only current female pop singers but historical greats like Franklin. The continuing popularity of her recordings and live performances made her 1999 sabbatical seem like a tragedy to her fans, but Dion needed a break after more than a decade and a half of breakneck pace. In 1999, her husband Angelil was diagnosed with throat cancer. While the disease responded well to treatment and went into remission, the illness was a wake-up call for Dion, who decided to put a new emphasis on her family life and announced a temporary retirement so that she could spend more time at home and have a child. After undergoing fertility treatments, she gave birth to a son in January2001. The Collector's Series…Volume One was released during Dion's hiatus; it featured many of her best-loved songs, as well as a Spanish-language version of "All By Myself".

 

Dion returned to the public eye in a big way in March 2002 with A New Day Has Come. The album debuted at number one in over 17 countries, and was accompanied by a full-scale media blitz. But Dion's greatest challenge was yet to come.

 

Despite millions of albums sold, the adoration of fans worldwide, and the validation of her peers, Dion's success was still hampered by image problems that had dogged her since the days of "Canine Dion." While many Americans adored her, just as many snickered at her Quebecois heritage and the relative the unorthodoxy of her marriage. There was also the issue of her relevancy to lucrative audiences existing outside of her pop vocal constituency. To combat these issues, Dion and her management made a series of bold moves that attempted to solidify her career, and ensure its continuity as the singer entered her middle 30s.

 

In early 2002, Dion announced a three-year, 600-show contract to appear five nights a week in an entertainment extravaganza at Caesers Palace, Las Vegas called A New Day. The production would take place in a custom-built, 4000-seat theatre and would feature Dion as the centerpiece of a multimedia program designed and orchestrated by Franco Dragone, the Belgian theatre impresario behind the modern circus phenomenon Cirque Du Soleil. The project united Dion, her label Sony Music, Drangone's production company Creations du Dragon, Caesars parent Park Place Entertainment, and promoter Concerts West in a landmark, multi-million dollar alliance that hinged on Dion's ability to put fans in seats five nights a week for three years. In conjunction with the rollout of A New Day was an endorsement deal with German automaker DaimlerChryslter AG worth additional millions. The campaign placed Dion in a series of stylish, black-and-white advertisements promoting the stylish allure of Chrysler's line of upscale automobiles. The performer also recorded a brand-new song to accompany the spots. Debuting in early 2003, the campaign dovetailed into the March release of One Heart, Dion's first album since 2001's A New Day Has Come, which in turn heralded the opening of A New Day on March 25, 2003.

A New Day Has Come

 

right in front of u

 

Life, it can twist your heart

Put you in the dark,

I was cold and lonely

Doubt, it can close you in

Build the walls within

I let fear control me

I let go, didn't know,

Where the answer would be

 

Right in front of you

Right in front of me

We were looking,

But somehow, someway

We couldn't see

That the love was always there

Its been around us everywhere

I had to fall to finally see

That you were right in front of me.

 

Ooh, Faith, it can lift you up

And we've got enough

To reach a new beginning

Love, can with stand a storm

In the final hour,

We'll find the joy in living

Don't let go (let go)

Cause I know (cause I know)

Pretty soon you will see

 

Right in front of you

Right in front of me

We were looking,

But somehow, someway

We couldn't see

That the love was always there

Its been around us everywhere

I had to fall to finally see

That you were right in front of me.

 

You are my tomorrow,

There’s safety in your arms,

Where you go, I'll follow

Cause your the world where I belong

 

Nanananana

Nanananana

 

Right in front of you

In front of me

Somehow we couldn't see

Right in front of you

I had to fall to finally see

 

Right in front of you

Right in front of me

We were looking,

But somehow, someway

We couldn't see

That the love was always there

Its been around us everywhere

I had to fall to finally see

 

Right in front of you

Right in front of me

We were looking,

But somehow, someway

We couldn't see

That the love was always there

Its been around us everywhere

I had to fall to finally see

That you were right in front of me.

Mmmmm ... Mmmmm ...

I get wings to fly

Oh, oh ... I'm alive ... 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

 

When you bless the day

I just drift away

All my worries die

I'm glad that I'm alive

 

You've 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

'Cause I am alive

 

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

(I am 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

I feel that...

 

When you bless the day

(When you bless, you bless the day)

I just drift away

(I just drift away)

All my worries die

I know that I'm alive

 

I get wings to fly

God knows that I'm alive

Have You Ever Been In Love

 

Have you ever been in love?

 

You could touch the moonlight.

When your heart is shooting stars,

you’re holding heaven in your arms.

Have you ever been in so love?

Have you ever walked on air?

Ever felt like you were dreaming?

When you never thought it could, but it really feels that good.

Have you ever been in so love?

 

Have you ever been in love?

You could touch the moonlight.

When your heart is shooting stars,

you’re holding heaven in your arms.

Have you ever been in love?

 

The time I spent waiting for something that was heaven sent

when you find it, don’t let go, I know.

 

Have you ever said a prayer?

And found that it was answered.

All my hope has been restored and I ain’t looking anymore.

Have you ever been in so love?

some place you that ain’t leavin…some where you gonna stay.

When you finally found the meaning. Have you ever felt this way?

 

The time I spent waiting for something that was heaven sent

when you find it, don’t let go, I know.

coz Have you ever been in love? (so in love)

You could touch the moonlight.

You can even reach the stars, doesn’t matter how far.

Have you ever been in so love?

coz Have you ever been in love?

Have you ever been in love?

So in love.

a new day has come

 

A new day...

A new day....

 

I was waiting for so long

For a miracle to come

Everyone told me to be strong

Hold on and don't shed a tear

 

Through the darkness and good times

I knew I'd make it through

And the world thought I had it all

But I was waiting for you

 

Hush, love

 

I see a light in the sky

Oh, its almost blinding me

I can't believe

I've been touched by an angel with love

 

Let the rain come down and wash away my tears

Let it fill my soul and drown my fears

Let it shatter the walls for a new sun...

 

A new day has... come

 

Where it was dark now there's light

Where there was pain now there's joy

Where there was weakness, I found my strength

All in the eyes of a boy

 

Hush, love

 

I see a light in the sky

Oh, its almost blinding me

I can't belive

I've been touched by an angel with love

 

Let the rain come down and wash away my tears

Let it fill my soul and drown my fears

Let it shatter the walls for a new sun...

 

A new day has...

 

Let the rain come down and wash away my tears

Let it fill my soul and drown my fears

Let it shatter the walls for a new sun...

 

A new day has....come

 

Ohhh, a light

 

Hush, now

 

I see a light in your eyes

All in the eyes of a boy

 

I can't believe

I've been touched by an angel with love

 

I can't believe

I've been touched by an angel with love

 

Hush, now

 

Hush, now

Goodbye's (The Saddest Word)

 

Mama, you gave life to me

Turned a baby, into a lady

And mama, all you had to offer

was a promise of a lifetime of love

Now I know, there is no other

Love like a mother's

Love for her child

and I know

a love so complete

something

 

Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear

Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near

Someday you'll say that word and I will cry

It'll break my hear to hear you say goodbye

 

Mama, you gave love to me

Turned a young one

Into a woman

and mama, all I ever needed

was a guarantee of you loving me

 

Cuz I know

there is no other

love like a mother's

love for her child

and it hurts so

that something so strong

 

must say goodbye

 

Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear

Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near

Someday you'll say that word and I will cry

It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye

 

Well the love you give

 

You'll always be there everytime I call

You ought to be the greatest love of all

You take my weakness and you make me strong

And I will always love 'till forever comes

 

 

 

I surrender

 

lThere’s so much life I’ve left to live

And this fire’s burning still

When I watch you look at me

I think I could find the will

To stand for every dream

And forsake the solid ground

And give up this fear within

Of what would happen if they ever knew

I’m in love with you

 

’cause I’d surrender everything

To feel the chance to live again

I reach to you

I know you can feel it to

We’d make it through

A thousand dreams I still believe

I’d make you give them all to me

I’d hold you in my arms and never let go

I surrender

 

I know I can’t survive

Another night away from you

You’re the reason I go on

And now I need to live the truth

Right now, there’s no better time

From this fear I will break free

And I’ll live again with love

And no the they can’t take that away from me

And they will see...

 

’cause I’d surrender everything

To feel the chance to live again

I reach to you

I know you can feel it too

We’d make it through

A thousand dreams I still believe

I’d make you give them all to me

I’d hold you in my arms and never let go

I surrender

 

Every night’s getting longer

And this fire is getting stronger, babe

I’ll swallow my pride and I’ll be alive

Did you hear my call

I surrender all

 

’cause I’d surrender everything

To feel the chance to live again

I reach to you

I know you can feel it too

We’d make it through

A thousand dreams I still believe

I’d make you give them all to me

I’d hold you in my arms and never let go

I surrender

 

Right here, right now

I give my life to live again

I’ll break free, take me

My everything I surrender all to you

 

Right here, right now

I give my life to live again

I break free, take me

My everything I surrender all to you

[JOeEe]

Sorry 4 LovE

 

Forgive me for the things

that I never said to you

forgive me for not knowing

the right words to say to prove

 

That i will always be

devoted to you and me

and if you can't feel that in my love

then I'm sorry for not giving you enough

 

But I'm not sorry for my love

I'm not sorry for my touch

the way I made your hands

tremble and my heart rush

 

I would do it all again

would'nt take back a thang, no

cause with you I've lived

a thousand lives in one

 

And I could never be

I could never be

sorry for love

 

Well maybe there've been times

that I let you down

looking back on all those moments

I know that I should have found

 

Love is to be for you

and now I will promise to you

and if you don't see that in my eyes

then I'll be

sorry for the rest of my life

 

But I'm not sorry for my love

I'm not sorry for my touch

the way I made your hands

tremble and my heart rush

 

I would do it all again

wouldn't take back a thang, no

cause with you I've lived

a thousand lives in one

 

But I could never be

I could never be

sorry for love

 

Aren't we all make mistakes

no matter how hard we try

but hearts can't only break

when sorry comes all around

 

Ooh, when sorry comes around

 

I'm not sorry...

for my love

for my touch

 

I would do it all again

I wouldn't take back my love

 

Because with you I've lived

a thousand lives in one

but I could never be

I could never be

I could never be

I could never be

 

 

 

Aun Existe Amor

 

 

Cuando

te adormeces junto a mi

entonces no me quedan dudas

de que aun existe amor

la indesicion que hay en mi

yo la mandaré a la luna

para vivir contigo

la soledad de cada dia

que entre lagrimas crecia

la alejaré de mi

 

Para amarte a toda costa

para amarte a cada momento

a pesar de tanto mal

que gira en torno nuestro

 

Cuando

te adormeces junto a mi

entonces no me quedan dudas

de que aun existe amor

se que aun existe amor

 

Las discuciones de los dos

saber quien tendra la culpa

que nos importa ya

en nuestro mundo eterno y grande

cari?o mio nos amaremos

mucho mucho mas

 

Mas all? de la violencia

mas all? de la locura

a pesar de tanto mal

que nos separa

 

Cuando

te adormeces junto a mi

entonces no me quedan dudas

de que aun existe amor

se que aun existe amor

se un existe amor

 

Para amarte a toda costa

para amarte a cada momento

a pesar de tanto mal

que gira en torno nuestro

 

Cuando te adormeces junto a mi

entonces no me quedan dudas

de que aun existe amor

[JOeEe]

Ur not alone

 

If you know what I feel

And if you feel the same way too

Just close your eyes

You're not alone... C'mmon!

C'mmon!

 

Wave your hands in the air!

 

If I took the time to put you in my rhyme

Let me tell you right there, you're a friend of mine

And I used to geting close if you catch me a time

We can do it like this with the twist of lime

Always on my mind, not the freak of the week

Take the words I speak, to every soul I reach

Hold tight with your touch on the microphone

As you're not just here, you are not alone!

 

You are not alone - I'll be there for you

You are not alone - anything I'll do

You are not alone - you're the one for me

You are not alone - it's no tragedy

You are not alone - you're the one for me

You are not alone - nothing comes for free

 

You are not alone -

Wave your hands in the air -

Let me hear you scream!

 

Come into my life, let me hold you, mold you

Got so many things that I prob'ly never told you

Never scold you, try to unfold you

Exlose you, someone's cast I even old you

If I told you I'm giving you my heart

You must have playing smart

Then you're tearing me apart

All night long to the early-early morning

Pick up the phone - you're not alone!

 

If you know what I feel

And if you feel the same way too

Just close your eyes

And feel me inside of you

 

Everybody in the house - c'mmon!

 

Yeah, it's a national thing

I wanna solve in your dream I'll offer a bill

That Thomas is cool, but I'm on your case

With your incredible pace

So when I entered the place

Meet you to see my face

We're making up all the hits

So baby, bottom o' your lip

I will be sinking your ship

Like gotta sliding a bit

Extra logic get time on the night perform

Baby, scratch to the bone - you're never alone!

 

 

 

Je Crois Toi

Je crains la nuit quand tu n'est pas la

Ce tout petit au-dela

Je crains le silenceapres le voix

Ce froid si froid

 

Je crains les rues, le jour et les gens

Et la solitude autant

Jeprie qu'on me remarque pas

Moi je crois toi, toi je te crois

 

La pluie, les ecalairs et les chats noirs

La vie me glace d'effroi

Soudain je sursaute en ne croisant qu'un miroir

Mais n'ai-je peur que de moi?

 

Je crains les promesses et les serments

Les cries, les mots seduisants

Je me mefie si souvent de moi

Mais de toi, pas, toi je te crois

 

La pluie, les ecalairs et les chats noirs

La vie me glace d'effroi

Mais quand je sursauste en ne croisant qu'un miroir

N'aurais-je peur que de moi?

 

Je crains les saints, le mal et le bien

Je crains le mond et ses lois

Quand tout m'angoisse, quand tout s'eteint

J'entends ta voix

Je te crois, toi

Toi, je te crois

Moi, je te crois

Prayer

 

 

Can we touch the soul of heaven

Can we unite a sacred lesson

Every child creates a skylight of beauty

Can you hear cathedrals falling

All the universe is calling

Cry a single cello from your heart

Since the world has lost away

Loneliness journey endlessly

Yet the promised chance remains

Gift of what could be

So let the children remember the sun

Let them dance let them soar

For their lives have begun

Let the children engender the rain

As the river runs through fields

Forever's subsiding their pain

Prayer

Every voice along the shoreline

Standing still within time

Spinning unresolved

Walking

As each season passes

Wonderland of looking glasses

Secret garden shines because you

Gentle flower, don't fade away

Sweet innocence they're harvesting

In the faith of golden dreams

Where one love lives eternally

Let the children remember the sun

Let them dance let them soar

For their lives have begun

Let the children engender the rain

As the river runs through fields

Forever's subsiding their pain

Prayer

Prayer

Prayer

Let the children fall in on the light

They are the truth of spirit in flight

Yes the children engender the rain

As the river runs through life

Healing their pain

You can trust with your heart but for time

Sweet angels, conceive you have

Forever and always believed Prayer

Prayer

Prayer

Prayer

 

 

Rain, Tax (It's Inevitable)

 

(It's inevitable)

 

I didn't know there was a plan

Somewhere a perfect plan

I don't believe in the stars

And then you smiled at my pretence

As you broke down my defenses

Just wanna be where you are

 

Loving like fashion

The look remains the same

I'll wear you all forever

But some things never change

 

Like rain, tax

After lightening the thunder blast

Sooner or later

It had to come through

 

Like rain, tax

Please grow up through the previous _

Do you see what I want

What I want is you

 

Thought our life was logical

That love was a miracle

That happened to someone else but me

 

Maybe I must have said a little prayer

Only I looked up when you were there

And the rest is history

 

I don't want to be an island anymore

Just resign your sail

Just there's one thing for sure

 

Rain, tax

After lightening the thunder blast

Sooner or later

It had to come through

(It's inevitable)

 

Like rain, tax

Please grow up through the previous _

Do you see what I want

What I want is you

 

It had to be you

It had to be you

Say you'll be here for ever

You and me here together

 

(Do you see what I want)

(What I want is you)

What I want is you

 

Like Rain

(After lightening the thunder blast)

Sooner or later

It had to come through

One HearT

 

I Drove All Night

 

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 falling 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 this 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

Love Is All We Need

 

She was living in a perfect house

With pictures of smiling faces

But there's a different story told inside

Underneath it all

With the sunglasses and makeup on

Blaming the stairs at Macy's

They all knew

(No one even asked; is something wrong?)

So they wait

Now she's gone

 

[Chorus]

I don't understand the concept of

The power of one is stronger

Why don't people seem to care at all

As long as it's not about them

I say

I guess we've underestimated love

Or why would we hurt each other

Don't you find that ironical

When love is all we need

Oh yeah

 

He is living down his sunset strip

Singing the blues for money

It's easy just to look the other way

When you have it all

He's reaching out to find a helping hand

But nobody seems to bother

Hear them say

(It's not my problem so it's not my call)

You're on your own

Through it all

 

[Chorus]

 

When it all becomes too real

We have a tendency to be

Too scared to face it

It's breaking my heart to see

When love is all we need

 

[Chorus]

 

 

 

In His Touch

 

For give me

don't know where to start

I guess we've come to

the serious part

I need to find out

if there's a chance for us

 

Don't give me that same old look

you won't win me over

don't give me that same old speech

you don't have to speak at all

 

You can say you love me

that I'm your perfect crush

how it hurts to need someone that much

you can swear you mean it

but that ain't good enough

cause when a man loves a woman it is all

in his touch

 

I wish you could see yeah

just how simple

it's suppose to be

 

cause now that we've come this far

we don't want to loose it

if you wanna win my heart

baby just shut your mouth

 

You can say you love me

that I'm your perfect crush

how it hurts to need someone that much

you can swear you mean it

but that ain't good enough

cause when a man loves a woman it is all

in his touch

 

Then words don't mean that much

 

You can say you love me

that I'm your perfect crush

how it hurts to need someone that much

you can swear you mean it

but that ain't good enough

cause when a man loves a woman it is all

in his touch

[JOeEe]

One heart

 

one heart you are following

 

you can run but you can't begin

in a place where you don't fit in

cause love will find a way (yea)

when you're down you can start again

turn around anything you're in

love will find a place

 

if you've got...

 

(chorus)

one heart

you are following

one dream

keeps you wondering

love lights your way through the night

one wish

keeps you tryin

once your silver linin

love lights your way through the night

 

you can fall a thousand times

you can feel like you've lost your mind

but love will find a way (o yea)

in a minute you can change your life

and a moment can make it right

love will find a place (ayeaea)

 

if you've got...

 

(chorus)

 

everybody needs something to hold on to (2 x's)

 

if you've got...

 

(chorus)

 

keeps you tryin...once your silver linin...love lights your way through the night

....love will find a way...love will find a way in your heart

 

 

 

Stand By Your Side

 

I cry and you comfort me

I'm lost and you hear my scream

So it's hard to watch you falling

When you run so deep in me

You live in me

 

Gonna stand by your side now

Let me kiss all your tears away

You can stay in my arms now

And I know I can make you believe again

 

I walk but you can run through fire

I search for reasons and baby you inspire

But I know somebody hurt you

And I know you really need a friend

Well you can take my hand

 

Gonna stand by your side now

Let me kiss all your tears away

You can stay in my arms now

And I know I can make you believe again

 

So when you're feeling like you can't go on

Don't you know

You never walk alone no

And you live in me

 

Gonna stand by your side now

Let me kiss all your tears away

You can stay in my arms now

And I know I can make you believe again

 

I'm gonna stand, stand by your side

Kiss all your tears away tonight

I'm gonna stand, stand by your side

Make you believe again

I wanna look in your eyes now and see you smiling again

[JOeEe]

Naked

 

Under this midnight sky

with you here by my side

there's nothing that i could hide

you know me better than anybody else

 

All of myself revealed

there is nothing i could conceal

my soul is yours to steal

take me wherever you want to

 

Baby I'm naked

naked with you

feels like the first time

I'm trembling, shaking

my heart's overtaken,yeah

 

Feels like I'm falling

all over again

baby come and take me

cause I'm trembling, shaking

I'm trembling , shaking

my heart's almost breaking

I'm naked with you

 

Whenever you're away

it's almost like I'm afraid

i only wanna stay

caught up in these stolen moments

 

Let's loose ourselves tonight

forget the world for awhile

make love till morning light

take me wherever you want to

 

Baby I'm naked

naked with you

feels like the first time

I'm trembling, shaking

my heart's overtaken

feels like I'm falling

all over again

baby come and take me

cause I'm trembling, shaking

I'm trembling, shaking

my heart's almost breaking

I'm naked with you

 

I'm naked with you

 

 

 

SOrry 4 love

Forgive me for the things

that I never said to you

forgive me for not knowing

the right words to say to prove

 

That i will always be

devoted to you and me

and if you can't feel that in my love

then I'm sorry for not giving you enough

 

But I'm not sorry for my love

I'm not sorry for my touch

the way I made your hands

tremble and my heart rush

 

I would do it all again

would'nt take back a thang, no

cause with you I've lived

a thousand lives in one

 

And I could never be

I could never be

sorry for love

 

Well maybe there've been times

that I let you down

looking back on all those moments

I know that I should have found

 

Love is to be for you

and now I will promise to you

and if you don't see that in my eyes

then I'll be

sorry for the rest of my life

 

But I'm not sorry for my love

I'm not sorry for my touch

the way I made your hands

tremble and my heart rush

 

I would do it all again

wouldn't take back a thang, no

cause with you I've lived

a thousand lives in one

 

But I could never be

I could never be

sorry for love

 

Aren't we all make mistakes

no matter how hard we try

but hearts can't only break

when sorry comes all around

 

Ooh, when sorry comes around

 

I'm not sorry...

for my love

for my touch

 

I would do it all again

I wouldn't take back my love

 

Because with you I've lived

a thousand lives in one

but I could never be

I could never be

I could never be

I could never be

 

Sorry for love

[JOeEe]

Forget Me Not

 

Baby, baby

as I rock you gently

right here in my arms

I promise to always

be here for you

keep you safe and warm

 

Sometimes in the middle of the night

I wake up crying when I think of how long

it took to find you

and now that I have, I won't be moving on

nothing can ever seperate us

we know where we belong

all I'm asking you

all I'm asking

before this moment's gone

 

Forget me not

don't forget what we got

everyday is surely but a dream

I found the sweetiest of all things

for all my life

you'll be my light

with every beat that's in your heart

oh baby please remember to

forget me not

 

Time is funny

time can fly

that's one thing for sure

I'll wake tomorrow

blink my eyes

see you standing at that door

 

and I'll be looking at you

see the wonder of what love can be

someday I might have to let you go

and that's just so hard to believe

and if I do, you'll know just

how much you mean to me

and all I ask of you

all I ask of you

before I set you free

 

Forget me not

don't forget what we got

everyday is surely but a dream

I found the sweetiest of all things

for all my life

you'll be my light

with every beat that's in your heart

oh baby please remember to

forget me not

 

before I set you free, yeah

 

Forget me not

don't forget what we got

everyday is surely but a dream

I found the sweetiest of all things

forever more

I'll then adore

with every beat that's in your heart

oh baby please remember to

forget me not

 

I Know What Love Is

 

i was forgotten

until you called my name

lost in the shadows

until you shined your light my way

 

now i believe again

in all my dreams again

i'm wide eyed and innocent

those doubting days are so far away

 

and i, i will fall

and you will catch me always

time has taught me this

oh oooohhh

i will fly

and you'll be there to guide me

straight up to my hearts highest wish

i feel you close to me

and i know what love is

 

now there's no mountain

to high for me to climb

no ocean so wide

that i could not reach the otherside

 

now i believe in me

cause you live and breath in me

nothing can come between

we are one star no night can darken

oooohhhh

 

i will fall

and you will catch me always

time has taugh me this

oh oooohhh

i will fly

and you'll be there to guide me

straight up to my hearts highest wish

i feel you close to me

and i know what love is

 

it's an unspoken thing

a quiet opening

there's no words that go that deep

but i know, i knooow

oooohhhhhhh

 

i will fall

and you will catch me always

time has taught me this

i will fly

and you'll be there to guide me

straight up to my hearts highest wish

i feel you close to me

and i know what love is

 

oooh ooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhh

Early Singles (French)

 

Ne Partez Pas Sans Moi

 

Vous qui cherchez l'etoile

Vous qui vivez un reve

Vous heros de l'espace

Au coeur plus grand que la terre

Vous donnez moi ma chance

Emmenez-moi loin d'ici

 

Ne partez pas sans moi laissez-moi vous suivre

Vous qui volez vers d'autres vies laissez-moi vivre

La plus belle aventure les plus beaux voyages

Qui menent un jour sur des soleils sur des planetes d'amour

 

Vous les nouveaux poetes

Vous les oiseaux magiques

Vous vous allez peut-etre trouver

De nouvelles musiques

Vous donnez-moi ma chance

Je veux chanter aussi

 

Ne partez pas sans moi laissez-moi vous suivre

Vous qui volez vers d'autres vies laissez-moi vivre

Le bleu de l'infini la joie d'etre libre

Sur des rayons sur des soleils

Sur des chansons sur des merveilles

Et dans un ciel d'amour

 

Le bleu de l'infini la joie d'etre libre

Vous qui cherchez une autre vie

Vous qui volez vers l'an 2 000

Ne partez pas sans moi

 

 

Avec Toi

 

Descends de ton fil toi l'artiste heureux toi le doux pierrot

C'est tout un autre monde que tu vois a tout regarder d'en haut

Non je ne suis pas la princesse en bleu de ton bois dormant

Tu le vois je suis bien reelle et je veux de toi pour amant

 

Avec toi

Je veux caresser la vie

Je veux devorer les plus beaux fruits

Je veux pleurer aussi

Avec toi

Je veux partager mes nuits

Je veux embrasser tes ciels de lit

Jusqu'a mon dernier cri

 

Tu reves debout et tu restes pur au milieu des loups

C'est pour ca que je t'aime malgre moi et tu m'aimes malgre tout

Non je ne suis pas la sagesse meme et mes sentiments

Ne sont pas faits que d'innocence

Ils sont faits de chair et de sang

 

Avec toi

Je veux caresser la vie

Je veux devorer les plus beaux fruits

Je veux pleurer aussi

Avec toi

Je veux partager mes nuits

Je veux embrasser tes ciels de lit

Jusqu'a mon dernier cri

 

Au nom de l'amour je voudrais te voir faire des folies

Renoncer a toi-meme et quelques fois bousculer l'ordre de ta vie

Mais je t'aime trop pour te perdre un jour alors je te dis

Que si toi tu veux rester sage, je serai sage moi aussi

Que si toi tu veux rester sage, je serai sage moi aussi
