(speach)
I remember quite clearly now when this story happened
The autumn leaves were floating and measured down to the ground
Recovering the lake where we used to swim like children
On the sun would dare to shine
That time we used to be happy But, I thought we were...
But the truth was that - you had been longing to leave me
Not daring to tell me
On that precious night watching the lake vaguely conscious
You said : our story was ending

Now I'm standing here no one to wipe away my tears
No one to keep me warm and no one to walk along with
No one to make me feel no one to make me hope
Oh ! what am I to do ?

I'm standing here alone it doesn't seem so clear to me
What am I supposed to do about this burning heart of mine
On what am I to do,
Or how should I react ? oh tell me please !

(speach)
The rain was killing the last days of summer
You had been killing my last breath of love
Since a long time ago..
I still don't think I'm gonna make it through another love story
You took it all away from me
And there I stand , I knew I was gonna be the...
The one left behind
But still I'm watching the lake vaguely conscious
And I know - my life is ending


2.Memory

Original:Elain Paige , 1983
Arranger:Ricky Ho

MIDNIGHT NOT A SOUND FROM THE PAVEMENT
HAS THE MOON LOST HER MEMORY SHE IS SMILING ALONE
IN THE LAMP LIGHT THE WITHERED LEAVES COLLECT AT MY FEET
AND THE WIND BEGINGS TO MOAN
MEMORY ALL ALONE IN THE MOON LIGHT
I CAN SMILE AT THE OLD DAYS I WAS BEAUTIFUL THEN
I REMEMBER THE TIME I KNEW WHAT HAPPINESS WAS
LET THE MEMORY LIVE AGAIN
EVERY STREET LAMP SEEMS TO BEAT A FATALISTIC WARNING
SOMEONE MUTTERS AND A STREET LAMP GUTTERS
AND SOOM IT WILL BE MORNING
DAY LIGHT I MUST WAIT FOR THE SUNRISE
I MUST THINK OF A NEW LIFE AND I MUSN'T GIVE IN
WHEN THE DAWN COMES TONIGHT WILL BE A MEMORY TOO
AND A NEW DAY WILL BEGIN.
BURNT OUT ENDS OF SMOKY DAYS THE STALE COLD SMELL OF MORNING
A STREET LAMP DIES , ANOTHER NIGHT IS OVER
ANOTHER DAY IS DAWNING
TOUCH ME IT'S SO EASY TO LEAVE ME
ALL ALONE WITH MY MEMORY OF MY DAYS IN THE SUN
IF YOU TOUCH ME YOU'LL UNDERSTAND WHAT HAPPINESS IS
LOOK , A NEW DAY HAS BEGUN


3.Light A Light

Original:Janis Ian , 1975
Arranger:Martin Pereira

I HEAR YOUR VOICE IN EVERY CORRIDOR
I SEE YOUR FACE IN EVERY PICTURE FRAME
I FEEL YOUR EYES IN EVERY STARRY SKY
LOVER , AM I COMING HONE AGAIN
NOW AM I HUMBLE , WHO ONCE WAS PROUD ?
NOW AM I SILENT , WHO ONCE WAS LOUD ?
NOW AM I WAITING FOR THE SOUND OF YOUR SAYING
LOVER , AM I COMING HONE AGAIN ?
WHEN YOU'RE GONE , THE SUN DON'T SHINE
LIGHT A LIGHT , LIGHT A LIGHT FOR ME BRING ME BACK HOME AGAIN
AND HOW WE LOVED TILL THE YEARS WERE DAYS
HOW WE LAUGHED ALL OUR TEARS AWAY
AND NOW THE TIME BEGINS TO FADE
LOVER , AM I COMING HOME AGAIN ?
THERES A WISDOM IN THE TEACHINGS OF THE OLD FAMILIAR SONGS
AND A SORROW IN REPEATING ALL THE OLD FAMILIAR WRONGS
AND A LESSON TO BE LEARNED
THOUGHT I'VE KNOWN ALL ALONG LOVER, AM I COMING HOME AGAIN
LIGHT A LIGHT , LIGHT A LIGHT FOR ME
LIGHT A LIGHT , LIGHT A LIGHT FOR ME
LIGHT A LIGHT , LIGHT A LIGHT FOR ME
BRING ME BACK HOME AGAIN BRING ME BACK HOME AGAIN . . .
UM . . .


4.Castles in the Air

Original:Don Mclean , 1970
Arranger:Martin Pereira

AND IF HE ASKS YOU WHY YOU CAN TELL HIM THAT I TOLD YOU
THAT I'M TIRED OF CASTLES IN THE AIR
I'VE GOT A DREAM I WANT THE WORLD TO SHARE
AND CASTLE WALLS JUST LEAD ME TO DESPAIR
HILLS OF FOREST GREEN WHERE THE MOUNTAINS TOUCH THE SKY
A DREAM COME TRUE I'LL LIVE THERE TILL I DIE
I'M ASKING YOU TO SAY MY LAST GOODBYE
THE LOVE WE KNEW AIN'T WORTH ANOTHER TRY
SAVE ME FROM ALL THE TROUBLE AND THE PAIN
I KNOW I'M WEAK BUT I CAN'T FACE THAT BOY AGAIN
TELL HIM THE REASONS WHY I CAN'T REMAIN
PERHAPS HE'LL UNDERSTAND IF YOU TELL IT TO HIM PLAIN
OH BUT HOW CAN WORDS EXPRESS THE FELL OF SUNLIGHT IN THE MORNING
IN THE HILLS AWAY FROM CITY STRIFE
I NEED A COUNTRY BOY IN MY LIFE
I'M CITY BORN , BUT I LOVE THE COUNTRY LIFE.
FOR I CANNOT BE PART OF THE COCKTAIL GENERATION
PARTNERS WALTZ DEVOID OF ALL ROMANCE
THE MUSIC PLAYS AND EVERYONE MUST DANCE
T'M BOWING OUT , I NEED A SECOND CHANCE
SAVE ME FROM ALL THE TROUBLE AND THE PAIN
I KNOW I'M WEAK BUT I CAN'T FACE THAT BOY AGAIN
TELL HIM THE REASONS WHY I CAN'T REMAIN
PERHAPS HE'LL UNDERSTAND IF YOU TELL IT TO HIM PLAIN
AND IF HE ASKS YOU WHY YOU CAN TELL HIM THAT I TOLD YOU
THAT I'M TIRED OF CASTLES IN THE AIR
I'VE GOT A DREAM I WANT THE WORLD TO SHARE
AND CASTLE WALLS JUST LEAD ME TO DESPAIR UM . . . LA . . .


5.Windmills of your Mind

Arranger:Khiew Sin San

ROUND LIKE A CIRCLE IN A SPIRAL LIKE A WHEEL WITHIN A WHEEL
NEVER ENDING OR BEGINNING ON AN EVER SPINNING REEL
LIKE A SNOWBALL DOWN A MOUNTAIN , OR A CARNIVAL BALOON
LIKE A CAROUSEL THAT'S TURNING , RUNNING RINGS AROUND THE MOON
LIKE A CLOCK WHOSE HANDS ARE SWEEPING , PAST THE MINUTES OF IT'S
FACE
AND THE WORLD IS LIKE AN APPLE , WHIRLING SILENTLY IN SPAC
LIKE THE CIRCLES THAT YOU FIND , IN THE WINDMILLS OF YOUR MIND .
LIKE A TUNNEL THAT YOU FOLLOW TO A TUNNEL OF ITS OWN.
DOWN A HOLLOW TO A CAVERN WHERE THE SUN HAS NEVER SHONE
LIKE A DOOR THAT KEEPS REVOLVING IN A HALF FORGOOTEN DREAM
OR THE RIPPLE FROM THE PEBBLE SOMEONE TOSSES IN A STREAM
LIKE A CLOCK WHOSE HANDS ARE SWEEPING PAST THE MINUTES OF ITS
FACE
AND THE WORLD IS LIKE AN APPLE WHIRLING SILENTLY IN SPACE
LIKE THE CIRCLES THAT YOU FIND , IN THE WINDMILLS OF YOUR MIND .
KEYS THAT JUNGLE IN YOUR ROCKET , WORDS THAT JANGLE IN YOUR HEAD
.
WHY DID SUMMER GO SO QUICKLY ? WAS IT SOMETHING THAT YOU SAID ?
LOVERS WALK ALONG THE SHORE,AND LEAVE THEIR FOOT PRINTS IN THE
SAND.
IS THE SOUND OF DISTANT DRUMMING , JUST THE FINGERS OF YOUR HAND

PICTURES HANGING IN A HALLWAY , AND THE FRAGMENT OF A SONG
HALF REMEMBERED NAMES AND FACES , BUT TO WHOM DO THEY BELONG ?
WHEN YOU KNEW THAT IS WAS OVER , YOU WERE SUDDENLY AWARE
THAT THE AUTUMN LEAVES WERE TURNING TO THE COLOUR OF HIS HAIR .
ROUND LIKE A CIRCLE IN A SPIRAL LIKE A WHEEL WITHIN A WHEEL
NEVER ENDING OR BEGINNING ON AN EVER SPINNING REEL
AS THE IMAGES UNWIND , LIKE THE CIRCLES THAT YOU FIND
IN THE WINDMILLS OF YOUR MIND .

Lyrics:Ula Hedwig
Music:Jaroslav Jakubovic
Arranger:Martin Pereira

YOU KNOW THAT EVERYBODY CAME BUT NOBODY CAME TO HIM
HE THE FACE LEFT WITHOUT A NAME
CAUSE TODAY FACES AREN THE SAME DOING WHAT HE KNOWS THE BEST
PLAYING WHAT HIS SOUL BELIEVES IN
MELODIES THEY DRIFT AND SOFTLY RISE
UNTIL LIKE CLOUDS THEY REACH AND FILL THE SKIES
UNKNOWN MUSICIAN , WU . . .
PLAY A SONG CAUSE MUSIC IS YOUR FRIEND
UNKNOWN MUSICIAN THEYL KNOW YOU IN THE END.
BREAK YOUR BACK TO REACH THE STAGE
WHEN YOU GET THEM YOU FEEL HUNGER
ENDLESS NIGHTS UP IN THE STREETS FOR WHICH YOU PRAYED
WHEN WILL YOU SEE THE LIGHT AGAIN ?
UNKNOWN MUSICIAN , WU . . .
PLAY A SONG CAUSE MUSIC IS YOUR FRIEND
UNKNOWN MUSICIAN THEYL KNOW YOU IN THE END !


8.Diamonds and rust

Original:Joan Baez , 1975
Arranger:Martin Pereira

Well , I'll be damned , here comes your ghose again
But that's not unusual , it's just that the moon is full
And you happened to call
And here I sit , hand on the telephone
Hearing a voice I'd known , a couple of light years ago
Hearing straight for a fall
As I remember your eyes were bluer than robin's eggs
My poetry was lousy you said where are you calling from ?
A booth in the midwest
Ten years ago I bought you some cufflinks
You brought my something we both know what memories can bring
They bring diamonds and rust
Well you burst on the scene already a legend
The unwatched phenomenon , the original vagabond
You strayed into my arms
And there you stayed , temporaroly lost at sea
The madona was yours for free
Yes the girl onthe half shell could keep you unharmed
Now I see you standing with brown leaves falling
All around and snow in your hair
Now you're smiling out the window of
That crummy hotel over washigton squaare
Our breath comes out white clouds mingles & hangs in the air
Speaking strickly for me , we both could've died then and there
Now you're telling my you're not nostalgic
Then give me another word for it
You who're so good with words and at keeping things vague
Cause I need some of that vagueness now
It's all come back to clearly
Yes I lovesd you dearly
And if you're offering my diamonds and rust I've already paid


9.If you say my eyes are Beautiful

Original:Jermaine Jackson/Whitney Houston,1986
Arranger:Ricky Ho

IF YOU SAY MY EYES ARE BEAUTIFUL
IT BECAUSE THEYE LOOKING AT YOU
AND IF YOU COULD ONLY SEE YOURSELF
YOU FEEL THE SAME WAY TOO
YOU COULD SAY THAT I AM A DREAMER
WHO HAD A DREAM COME TRUE
IF YOU SAY MY EYES ARE BEAUTIFUL
IT BECAUSE THEYE LOOKING AT YOU
IF YOU WONDER WHY I'M SMILING
IT'S BECAUSE I'M HAPPY WITH YOU
AND FILL ME THROUGH AND THROUGH
I COULD HOLD YOU CLOSE FOREVER
AND NEVER LET YOU GO
IF YOU SAY MY EYES ARE BEAUTIFUL
IT'S BECAUSE I JUST LOVE YOU SO
NOW MY HEART IS AN OPEN DOOR
WON'T YOU COME INSIDE FOR MORE
YOU GIVE LOVE SO SWEETLY NOW
TAKE MY LOVE TAKE MY COMPLETELY NOW
IF YOU SAY MY EYES ARE BEAUTIFUL
IT'S BECAUSE THEY'RE LOOKING AT YOU
AND MY EYES ARE JUST THE WINDOWS
FOR MY FEELINGS TO COME THROUGH
AND BY FAR YOU ARE MORE BEAUTIFUL
THAN ANYTHING I EVER KNEW
IF YOU SAY MY EYES ARE BEAUTIFUL
IF YOU SAY MY EYES ARE BEAUTIFUL
IF YOU SAY MY EYES , MY EYES ARE BEAUTIFUL
IT'S BECAUSE THEY'RE LOOKING AT YOU .

Original:Modern Talking , 1987
Arranger:Ricky Ho

BABY COME SAVE ME FROM PAIN AND FROM FEAR
MAYBE I'M CRAZY , STILL DREAMING YOU'RE HERE
NO MORE TEARS MY BABY I CRY FOR YOU
NO MORE FEARS OH MAYBE I'M MISSING YOU
LIKE A HERO I WILL SMILE AGAIN
LIKE A HERO IN THE MIGNIGHT TRAIN
LIKE A HERO I WILL GO MISS YOU MORE THAN YOU WILL KNOW
WHEN YOU BREAK MY HEART
LIKE A HERO I WILL SMILE AGAIN
WE'RE A WOMAN BABY AND A MAN
AND I'M NEEDING YOUR SWEET LOVE
GIVE ME MORE OF THAT SWEET STUFF GIVE ME WHAT YOU'VE GOT

GIRL WITH NO TOMORROW
NO MORE TEARS MY BABY I CRY FOR YOU
NO MORE FEARS OH MAYBE I'M MISSING YOU


11.Requiem

Origianl:Karthago , 1983
Arranger:Indra Ismail

THERE WAS A BOY , THERE WAS A GIRL
THEY WALKED IN THE HOUSE OF DREAMS TOGETHER
LOST IN THE SOUNDS , FREEDOM AND HAPPINESS
THEY HOPED THE DREAM WOULD LAST FOREVER
HE CAME WHEN ALL THE LIGHTS WERE SHINNING
HE WENT AWAY AND THE SKY WAS FALLING DARK SHADOW'S TALKING
HE'LL NEVER COME NO MORE ! NEVER COME NO MORE !
NEVER HEAR AGAIN THE SOUND OF THE ELEPHANT'S CALL
HE'LL NEGVER COME NO MORE ! NEVER COM NO MORE !
NEVER HEAR THE SONG , THE SOUND OF THE ELEPHANT'S CALL
THERE WAS A BOY , JUST LIKE ANYONE OF US
HE LOVED TO SING AWAY HIS SORROWS
LOST IN THE CROWD , RUCHING SO MADLY AROUND
HE DIDN'T LIVE TO SEE TOMORROW
HE CAME WHEN ALL THE LIGHTS WERE SHINNING
HE WENT AWAY AND THE SKY WAS FALLING DARK SHADOWS TALKING
