- Alabama Song
(Kurt Weill)
Oh, show me the way to the next whiskey bar
Oh, don't ask why, oh, don't ask why
Show me the way to the next whiskey bar
Oh, don't ask why, oh, don't ask why
For if we don't find the next whiskey bar
- As Tears Go By
It is the evening of the day,
I sit and watch the children play.
Smiling faces I can see
But not for me,
I sit and watch as tears go by.
My riches can't buy everything,
I want to hear the children sing.
- Ballad Of The Soldier's Wife
What was sent to the soldier's wife
From the ancient city of prague ?
From prague came a pair of high heeled shoes,
With a kiss or two came the high heeled shoes
From the ancient city of prague.
What was sent to the soldier's wife
From oslo over the sound ?
From oslo there came a collar of fur,
- Blazing Away
Soul searchin' down and out lookin' for a place to stay
A place with no commitment, a place with no involvement
I got one eye on insanity, the other on the wheel
One's turnin', one's burnin', blazin' away
One's turnin', one's burnin', blazin' away
Strange lookin' exile with a passion for the dangers
Eye for the wicked, a tongue for the nasty
- Broken English
Could have come through anytime,
Cold lonely, puritan
What are you fighting for?
It's not my security.
It's just an old war,
Not even a cold war,
Don't say it in Russian,
- Come and Stay With Me
I'll send away all my false pride
And I'll forsake all of my life.
Yes, I'll be as true, as true can be
If you'll come and stay with me.
Lovers of the past I'll leave behind,
There'll never be another on my mind.
I'll do all I can so you'll feel free
- Counting
Now is the glimmering spinning beginning
Of something Ive prayed for and counted the minutes
To be in the shadows of sheltering meadows
Of night, here with you in my arms.
- Dear God Please Help Me
There was a field in my old town
Where we always played hand in hand
The wind was gently touching the grass
We were so young so fearless
Then I dreamt over and over of
you holding me tight under the stars
I made a promise to my dear Lord
- Down Town
When you're alone
And life is making you lonely
You can always go
Down town.
When you've got worries
All the noise and the hurry
Seems to hurt, I know.
- Et Maintenant
Et maintenant, que vais-je faire
De tout le temps que sera ma vie ?
De tous ces gens qui mindiffrent
Maintenant que tu es parti.
Toutes les nuits, pourquoi, pour qui ?
Et ce matin qui revient pour rien.
Mon coeur qui bat, pour qui, pourquoi ?
Qui bat trop fort, trop fort.
- Flaming September
The summer dying
September lives in flames.
The sisters dancing
No happy ending to the game.
Don't bother to call me
Think I'll stay here just the same.
Flaming september
- For Wanting You
It comes as no surprise
Your face filled with lies
Hovers all around me in this room.
Clouds hung with my dismay
A hot bed where we lay
Your every kiss tasting like a tomb.
- Go Away From My World
Go away from my world,
Let me dream alone.
And you see it never worked from the start,
All I got for all of my love was a broken heart.
Go away from my world,
And let me dream alone.
I'll dry my eyes and comb my hair,
- Greensleeves
Alas my love you do me wrong
To cast me off discourteously
For I have loved you so long
Delighting in your company.
Greensleeves was all my joy,
Greensleeves was my delight.
Greensleeves was my heart of gold
- Guilt
I feel guilt, I feel guilt,
Though I know I've done no wrong I feel guilt.
I feel guilt, I feel guilt,
Though I know I've done no wrong I feel guilt.
I feel bad, so bad,
Though I ain't done nothing wrong I feel bad.
I feel bad, so bad,
- He'll Come Back To Me
The wind laughs and the world cries,
And I don't care anymore.
I can only hear the sound of my head,
And the soft sea roar.
For the wind laughs and the world cries
And I shall laugh with the wind.
Today will end when the sun will rise
- Hier ou demain
Écoute mon coeur qui bat
Il ne bat pas pour toi,
Mais pour un autre que toi
Que je ne connais pas.
Hier ou demain,
Je t'aurais dit oui.
Hier ou demain,
- I Have A Love
I have a love and it's all that I have
Right or wrong, what else can I do ?
I love him, I'm his,
And every thing he is
I am, too.
I have a love and he's all that I need,
Right or wrong, and he needs me, too.
- I'm A Loser
Of all the love I have won or have lost
There is one love I should never have crossed.
He was a boy in a million, my friend,
I should have known he would win in the end.
I'm a loser
And I lost someone who's near to me.
I'm a loser
- If I Never Get To Love You
If I never get to love you
It won't be that I didn't try
I'll be trying to possess you
'Till the day I die
If I never get to love you
It won't be that I ran away
For as long as you will have me
- Kissin Time
The song "Kissin Time" is the result of a collaboration between her and Blur, and is, according to Faithfull, "sort of about Damon (Albarn) and sort of about me."
Oh, don't sell me out, only love.
You don't get it so well.
Please tell someone
Everything is gone
Dream less of me, less to guess on you
- Kissin' Time
Oh, don't sell me out, only love.
You don't get it so well.
Please tell someone
Everything is gone
Dream less of me, less to guess on you
I felt so much
Every tick and tussle
- Les Prisons du Roy
Au fond des prisons du roy,
Tout au fond des prisons du roy,
Ils l'ont enferm dans les prisons du roy,
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
Messire, dites-moi pourquoi ont-ils fait ça ?
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
Est-il vrai qu'il ne reviendra plus jamais,
Jamais, plus jamais,
- Lucky Girl
Thank you for the love you bring
This lucky girl.
You have given everything
To this lucky girl.
I thought fairy tales did not come true,
Now I can't be sure since I met you.
Please, take my love.
When you love me with your eyes
- Marathon Kiss
I cherished the night of your marathon kiss
Chemicals flying, oh I love this
What's it all for if you can't feel the ecstasy?
What's it all for if you can't touch the power?
The will to live in the hour?
Don't steal what I have got, baby
'Cause it's hardly enough for myself
- No Moon in Paris
There's no moon, no moon in Paris
And it's very lonely here tonight
Everywhere else there's a full moon
But not here, not now, and nothing's going right
What can I do but pretend to be brave
And pretend to be strong when I'm not
There's no moon, no moon in Paris tonight
- North Country Maid
A North country maid up to London has strayed
Although with her nature it did not agree.
So she wept and she sighed and bitterly she cried,
"Oh, I wish once again in the North I could be."
For the oak and the ash and the bonny ivy tree
They all grow green in the North country.
While sadly I roam I regret my dear home,
Where the lads and young lasses are making the hay.
- Once I Had A Sweetheart
Once I had a sweetheart and now I have none
Once I had a sweetheart and now I have none.
He's gone and leave me, he's gone and leave me
He's gone and leave me to sorrow and mourn.
Last night in deep slumber I dreamed I did see
Last night in deep slumber I dreamed I did see
My own true love came smiling to me
My own true love came smiling to me.
- Our Love Has Gone
Our love has gone
And there's nothing we can do.
It has happened, leave it so.
People may say
It is wrong me leaving you,
Maybe wrong but I must go.
I can't change,
Rhyme this song,
- Pirate Jenny
You lads see me wash the glasses, wipe the floors,
Make the beds, I'm the best of servants.
You can kindly throw me pennies and I'll thank you very much.
When you see me ragged and tattered in this dirty shit hotel,
You don't know in hell who's talking,
You still don't know in hell who's talking.
Yet one fine day there will be roars from the harbor
And you'll ask, "What is all that screeching for ?"
- Plaisir D'Amour
Plaisir d'amour
Ne dure qu'un moment,
Chagrin d'amour
Dure toute la vie.
Your eyes kissed mine,
I saw the love in them shine.
But you gave me Heaven right then
- Sex With Strangers
Someone saw you
By the waterside.
Nothing you can do will change her.
This is not the time for secrets
Save your breath.
It's time
For sex
- Sister Morphine
Here I lie in my hospital bed
Tell me, Sister Morphine, when are you coming
round again?
Oh, I don`t think I can wait that long
Oh, you see that I`m not that strong
The scream of the ambulance is sounding in my ears
Tell me, Sister Morphine, how long have I been
- Sliding Through Life On Charm
The family tree was chainsawed Wednesday week
So now I have to mingle with the meek
Hey mister, you have finally met your match
Now everybody wants to kiss my snatch
To go where God knows who has gone before
I am a muse, not a mistress, not a whore
Oh, suburban shits who want some class
- Summer Nights
Winter's almost gone,
Oh how I've waited so long
For summer nights.
When there's magic in the air
And I don't have a care,
All that matters to me
Is that you are here
On summer nights.
- Sweetheart
The work was seen by reviewers as a disappointing follow-up to Faithfull's Broken English, as the album trades the angry and controversial alternative new wave arrangements of the previous one for a more mainstream rock texture, using over a dozen session musicians and, for some, giving a certain anonymous feel to the songs. The title is a reference to the Pierre Choderlos de Laclos 1782 novel Les Liaisons dangereuses.
The main singles of the album were "Intrigue", penned by the singer's then-husband, Ben Brierley, and "For Beauty's Sake", written by Faithfull and Steve Winwood.
Sweetheart
I'm changing my role in life,
I'm not re-arranging the main things in my life.
I ain't sacrificing what I hold as true,
I ain't sacrificing, sweetheart even for you.
- The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face
The first time ever I saw your face
Когда я впервые увидела твое лицо
The first time ever I saw your face
I saw the sun rise in your eyes
That the moon and stars were a gift you gave
To the dark and the empty skies, my love,
To the dark and the empty skies.
- The Most of What Is Least
I'm staring at the setting of the sun
For I know my time with you is nearly gone
And my minutes, they're so precious, yes, each and every one
As I try to make the most of what is least.
I've a weary kind of feeling in my mind,
I'll try to look ahead and not behind.
And I know that you don't mean to be unkind
As I try to make the most of what is least.
- The Mystery Of Love
When you're not by my side
The world's in two, and I'm a fool
When you're not in my sight
Then everything, just fades from view
The mystery of love belongs to you
The mystery of love belongs to you
- The Pleasure Song
I got so much love
So much more
So much more love to give.
I got so much more
So much love
So much more love left to give.
So much pleasure draws me like I never saw.
I have never seen you look like this before.
- The Sha La La Song
At last it's over,
I knew I could not hold him,
His love for freedom
Was far too strong.
But though he's gone now
My life is just beginning,
I'll soon forget him,
- This Little Bird
There's a little bird that somebody sends
Down to the earth to live on the wind.
Borne on the wind and he sleeps on the wind
This little bird that somebody sends.
He's light and fragile and feathered sky blue,
So thin and graceful the sun shines through.
This little bird who lives on the wind,
- Who Will Take My Dreams Away
Angelo Badalamenti & Marianne Faithfull – Who will takes my dreams away (lyrics)
I can’t give you all my dreams
Nor the life i live.
You and i won’t friendship miss,
That’s all we got to give.
Who will take your dreams away
- Who Will Take Your Dreams Away
I can't give you all my dreams
Nor the life I live.
You and I won't friendship miss,
That's all we got to give.
Who will take your dreams away
Takes your soul another day.
What can never be lost is gone,
- Who Will Take Your Dreams Away OST Девушка на мосту
I can't give you all my dreams
Nor the life I live.
You and I know what friendship means,
That's all we got to give.
Who will take your dreams away
Takes your soul another day.
What can never be lost is gone,
