Shirley Bassey все тексты (слова) песен, переводы, видео, клипы

Like the world came to be
So your love came to me

All at once you smiled
And music filled the night
All at once you sighed
And the stars rushed out of sight
At your touch, a voice within me cried

When I was young I never needed anyone
And making love was just for fun, those days are gone

Living alone, I think of all the friends I've known
But when I dial the telephone, nobody's home

All by myself, don't wanna be all by myself anymore
All by myself, don't wanna live all by myself anymore

I'm runnin´ away from Cinderella
don't want to go to Rapunzel´s hairdresser
Get me outta this
This, this here fairytale
According to me dreams are hell

I don't wanna kiss that faggot froggy
don't want to fall in love

I will love you as I love you
All my life
Every moment spent with you
Makes me more content with you
Just as you are
You are all I could pray for
All that you are
That's what I wake

by Lionel Bart - 1959

As longs as he needs me
I know where I must be
I'll cling on steadfastly
As longs as he needs me
As long as life is long
I'll love him, right or wrong

Can you read my mind?
Do you know what it is you do to me?
Don't know who you are
Just a friend from another star
Here I am
Like a kid at the school
Holding hands
With a god(??) I'm a fool

Crazy rhythm, here's the doorway
I'll go my way, you'll go your way
Crazy rhythm from now on we're through
Here is where we have a showdown
I'm too high and you're too lowdown
Crazy rhythm, here's goodbye to you
They say that when a highbrow
Meets a lowbrow, walking along Broadway

What now my love?
Now that you've left me
How can I live through another day?
Watching my dreams turn into ashes
And all my hopes into bits of clay
Once I could see, once I could feel
Now I am numb, I've become unreal
I walk the night without a goal

Diamonds are forever,
They are all I need to please me,
They can stimulate and tease me,
They won't leave in the night,
I've no fear that they might desert me

Diamonds are forever,
Hold one up and then caress it,

Baby cried the day the circus came to town
'Cause she didn't want parades just passing by her
So she painted on a smile and took up with some clown
While she danced without a net upon the wire

I know a lot about her 'cause you see
Baby is an awful lot like me

I'm comin' up so you better get this party started
I'm comin' up so you better get this party started

Get this party started on a Saturday night
Everybody's waitin' for me to arrive
Sendin' out the message to all of my friends
We'll be lookin' flashy in my Mercedes Benz
I got lotsa style,

Goldfinger.
He's the man, the man with the midas touch.
A spider's touch.
Such a cold finger.
Beckons you to enter his web of sin
But don't go in.

Golden words he will pour in your ear,

Where do I begin?
To tell the story of how great a love can be
The sweet love story that is older than the sea
The simple truth about the love he brings to me
Where do I start?

Like a summer rain
That cools the pavement with a patent leather shine

The word is about, there's something evolving,
whatever may come, the world keeps revolving
They say the next big thing is here,
that the revolution's near,
but to me it seems quite clear
that it's all just a little bit of history repeating
The newspapers shout a new style is growing,
but it don't know if it's coming or going,

I am what I am
I am my own special creation
So come take a look
Give me the hook or the ovation
It's my world that I want to
have a little pride in
My world and it's not a
place I have to hide in

I'm not anyone no, not just anyone
I have the right to be
A life fulfilled with every need

I'm not any woman
Designed to fit someone's plan
I have my own desires
All the things a woman requires

Just once in a lifetime
A girl knows a moment
One wonderful moment
When fate takes your hand
And this is my moment
My once in a lifetime
When I can explore
A new and exciting land

If you go away, on this summer day
Then you might as well take the sun away
All the birds that flew in the summer sky
When our love was new and our hearts were high
When the day was young and the night was long
And the moon stood still for the night birds' song
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away

Jesse, come home there's a hole in the bed
Where we slept and now it's growin' cold
Hey Jesse, your face in the place
Where we lay by the hearth all apart
It hangs on my heart
And I'm keeping the light on the stairs
No I'm not scared i wait for you
Hey Jesse, I'm lonely, come home

Kiss me, honey, honey, kiss me
Thrill me, honey, honey, thrill me
Don't care even if I blow my top
But, honey, honey, don't stop
I'd like to play a little game with you
A little game especially made for two
If you come close then I will show you how
Closer, closer, now

Life goes on
and we pass through
Days of sunlight days of tears
It´s the way life comes to you
Foolish wasting precious years.

Life goes on
One day you cry

Where are you
Why do you hide
Where is that moonlight trail that leads to your side
Just like the moonraker goes
In search of his dream of gold
I search for love for someone to have and hold
I've seen your smile in a thousand dreams
Felt your touch, and it always seems

i'd like to run away from you, but if you never found me i would die
i'd like to break the chains you put around me, but i know i never
will
you stay away and all i do is wonder why the hell i wait for you
but when did common sense prevail for lovers when we know it never
will
impossible to live with you, but i know, i could never live without
you

No, no regrets
No, we will have no regrets
As you leave, I can say
Love was king, but for only a day

No, no regrets
No, let there be no regrets
Why explain? Why delay?

I reach for the stars
When I reach for your love
For so far above me you always will be
Like a clown longs to be a king in a play
I long for the things that are so far away

I reach for the stars
When I reach for your hand

Isn't it rich? Are we a pair?
Me here at last on the ground
You in mid-air
Send in the clowns

Isn't it bliss? Don't you approve?
One who keeps tearing around, one who can't move
Where are the clowns?

Work all day, as men who know,
Wheels must turn to keep, to keep the flow,
Build on up, don't break the chain,
Sparks will fly, when the whistle blows.

Never stop the action,
Keep it up, keep it up,

You are what you are
It was, what it was
The world didn't end
The world never does
I wake up alive
From habit I guess
Yes, I can survive, one love more or less
And sometime, somewhere, somehow

hirley Bassey’s cover of George Harrison’s Perfect Ballad actually has sold more copies than the original Beatles release >>> which is ’Something’ in itself! Harrison’s song was the perfect vehicle for Bassey’s emotionally charged and powerful range /register vocal abilities. See Shirley Bassey sing this song, live, on Youtube

What goes up must come down
spinning wheel got to go round
Talking about your troubles it's a crying sin
Ride a painted pony
Let the spinning wheel spin

You got no money, and you, you got no home
Spinning wheel, spinning all alone

O pato vinha cantando alegremente, qüem, qüem
Quando um marreco sorridente pediu
Pra entrar também no samba, no samba, no samba
O ganso gostou da dupla e fez também qüem, qüem, qüem
Olhou pro cisne e disse assim, vem vem
Que o quarteto ficará bem, muito bom, muito bem
Na beira da lagoa foram ensaiar
Para começar o tico-tico no fubá

Day after day, alone on the hill,
The man with the foolish grin is keeping perfectly still.
But nobody wants to know him,
They can see that he's just a fool.
And he never gives an answer .....

But the fool on the hill,
Sees the sun going down.

There's always a joker in the pack
There's always a lonely clown
The poor laughing fool falls on his back
And ev'ryone laughs when he's down
There's always a funny man in the game
But he's only funny by mistake
But ev'ryone laughs at him, just the same
They don't see his lonely heart break

I've wined and dined on mulligan stew
On "Live at Talk of the Town" inserted: I have, I have
And never wished for turkey
I've hitched and hiked and drifted to

From Maine to Alberquque
Alas I missed the beaux arts ball
And what is twice as sad

The Liquidator
Will soon be coming around
You won't feel safer
Until you get out of town
He's an eraser
He'll rub you out like a light
And for a chaser
He'll kiss your woman good-night

One day we walked along the sand
One day in early spring you held a piper in your hand
To mend it's broken wing
Now I remember many a day and many a lonely mile
The echo of a piper song, the shadow of a smile

The shadow of your smile when you are gone
Will color all my dreams and light the dawn

Are we really happy with this lonely game we play
Looking for words to say
Searching but not finding, understanding anyway
We're lost in a masquerade

Both afraid to say we're just too far away
From being close together from the start
We tried to talk it over, but the words got in the way

The Jets are gonna have their day
Tonight.

The Sharks are gonna have their way
Tonight.

The Puerto Ricans grumble: "Fair fight."
But if they start a rumble,

Hey, well
I'm a friendly stranger in the black sedan
Won't you hop inside my car?
I got pictures, got candy, I'm a lovable gal
And I can take you to the nearest star

I'm your vehicle, baby
I'll take you anywhere you want to go

Baby cried the day the circus came to town 'cause she didn't want parades just passing by her So she painted on a smile and took up with some clown While she danced without a net upon the wire I know a lot about her 'cause, you see Baby is an awful lot like me Don't cry out loud Just keep it inside And learn how to hide your feelings Fly high and proud And if you should fall Remember you almost had it all Baby saw that when they pulled the big top down They left behind her dreams among the litter The different kind of love she thought she'd found There was nothing left but sawdust and some glitter But baby can't be broken 'cause you see She had the finest teacher - that was me Don't cry out loud Just keep it inside And learn how to hide your feelings Fly high and proud And if you should fall Remember you almost had it all Don't cry out loud Just keep it inside And learn how to hide your feelings Fly high and proud And if you should fall Remember you almost made it Don't cry out loud Just keep it inside And learn how to hide your feelings Fly high and proud And if you should fall Remember you almost had it all

Yesterday when I was young
The taste of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue.
I teased at life as if it were a foolish g ame,
The way the evening breeze may tease a candle fl ame.
The thousand dreams I dreamed, the splendid things I planned
I always built alas on weak and shifting sand.
I lived by night and shunned the naked light of the day
And only now I see how the years ran away.

You only live twice, or so it seems,
One life for yourself, and one for your dreams.
You drift through the years and life seems tame,
Till one dream appears and love is its name.

And love is a stranger who`ll beckon you on,
Don`t think of the danger or the stranger is gone!
