I couldn’t, so besides the original -

Paul Simon – 50 ways to leave your lover

there are two more covers I enjoyed:

Tok Tok Tok’s

Pink Turtle’s

and since I love their covers, here’s another one:

Walk On The Wild Side (Lou Reed / David Bowie)

And my latest candy before we change white for green is:

Chinese Man – Artichaut

Fish – A gentleman’s excuse me

Do you still keep paper flowers

In the bottom-drawer with your Belgian lace

Taking them out every year

To watch the colors fade away

Do you still believe in fairy tales

In battlements of shining castles

Safe from the dragons

That lie beneath the hill

Are you still a Russian princess

Rescued by a gypsy-dancer

To anyone who’ll listen

Is that a story you still tell

You live a life of fantasy

Your diary romantic fiction

Can’t you see it’s hard for me

Can you see what I’m trying to say

It’s a gentleman’s excuse me

So I’ll take one step to the side

Can you get it inside your head

I’m tired of dancing

For every one step forward

I’m taking two steps back

Can you get it inside your head

I’m tired of dancing

I know you still like old-fashioned waltzes

Your reflection in the mirror that you flirt with

As you glide across the floor

But if I told you, the music’s over

Would you want to hear

That your dance card, is empty

That there’s no-one really there

Do you still believe in Santa Claus

There’s a millionaire looking for your front door

With the key to a life

That you’d never understand

And all I have to offer

Is the love I have, it’s freely given

You’ll see it’s value

When you see what I’m trying to say

It’s a gentleman’s excuse me

So I’ll take one step to the side

Can you get it inside your head

I’m tired of dancing

For every one step forward

I’m taking two steps back

Can you get it inside your head

That for this one step forward

There’s no turning back

Can you get in inside your head

I’m tired of dancing

We’re Finished Dancing

C’Était L’Hiver

Elle disait “j’ai déjà trop marché
Mon coeur est déjà trop lourd de secrets
Trop lourd de peines”

Elle disait “Je ne continue plus
Ce qui m’attends je l’ai déjà vécu
C’est plus la peine”

Elle disait que vivre était cruel
Elle ne croyait plus au soleil
Ni aux silences des églises
Meme mes sourires lui faisaient peur
C’était l’hiver dans le fond de son coeur

Elle disait que vivre était cruel
Elle ne croyait plus au soleil
Ni aux silences des églises
Meme mes sourires lui faisaient peur
C’était l’hiver dans le fond de son coeur

Meme le vent n’a jamais été plus froid
La pluie plus violente que ce soir là
Le soir de ses vingt ans
Le soir où elle a éteint le feu
Derrière la facade de ses yeux
Dans un éclair blanc

Elle a sûrement rejoint le ciel
Elle brille à coté du soleil
Comme les nouvelles églises
Mais si depuis ce soir là je pleure
C’est qu’il fait froid dans le fond de mon coeur

Elle a sûrement rejoint le ciel
Elle brille à coté du soleil
Comme les nouvelles églises
Meme si depuis ce soir là je pleure
C’est qu’il fait froid dans le fond de mon coeur.
