George Michael   A MOMENT WiTH YOU

5:42

Note:

A Moment With You

(You can't keep holding it in when it's something good)

Hey this won't take much time
We won't touch, we'll just wait for signs
And nothing was further from my mind
Than this moment with you

But if you'd only told me baby
I would have made some other plans
If I'd only seen it sooner
But what a way with your hands you had
I wanted that moment with you

I know that it's wrong,
But "if you need me, I'm here", turns me on
I can't help thinking it's a miracle you're here
I can't help thinking it's a mircale

Say, you don't waste much time
We don't touch, do we baby?
But still my hands are tied
For that moment with you

But if you'd only told me baby
I would have made some other plans
If I'd only seen it sooner
But what a way with your hands you have
I wanted that moment with you

You know that I'm strong
And I've no reason to fear, am I wrong?
I can't help thinking it's a miracle you're here
I can't help thinking it's a miracle
I can't help thinking it's American
I can't help thinking it's a miracle
I can't help thinking it's a miracle you're here

You can't keep holding it in when it's something good
Get up, get up
You can't help holding it in when it's something good
Get up, get up

And who can you trust? Dealing out justice
With a minimum of fuss
Who baby
Dealing out justice...
  Moment s tebou

(Nemôžeš to zadržať, keď je to niečo dobré)

Hej, toto nepotrvá dlho
Nechceme sa dotýkať, len čakáme na znamenia
A na nič iné som nemyslel
Len na tento moment s tebou

Ale, keby si mi len povedal, zlatko
Urobil by som si iné plány
Keby som to len vedel skôr
Ale pre tie tvoje ruky, čo máš
Chcel som ten moment s tebou

Viem, že to nie je správne
Ale "ak ma potrebuješ, tu som", ma rozpaľuje
Nemôžem si pomôcť, ale myslím si, že je to zázrak, že si tu
Nemôžem si pomôcť, ale myslím si, že je to zázrak

Povedz, že veľmi nemrháš časom
Nechceme sa dotýkať, či áno, miláčik?
Ale aj tak, moje ruky sú zviazané
Pre ten moment s tebou

Len keby si mi povedal, zlatko
Urobil by som si iné plány
Len keby som to vedel skôr
Ale pre tie tvoje ruky, čo máš
Chcel som ten moment s tebou

Vieš, že som silný
A nemám dôvod sa báť, alebo sa mýlim?
Nemôžem si pomôcť, ale myslím si, že je to zázrak, že si tu
Nemôžem si pomôcť, ale myslím si, že je to zázrak
Nemôžem si pomôcť, ale myslím si, že je to americké
Nemôžem si pomôcť, ale myslím si, že je to zázrak
Nemôžem si pomôcť, ale myslím si, že je to zázrak, že si tu

Nemôžeš to zadržať, keď je to niečo dobré
Tak vstaň, vstaň
Nemôžeš to zadržať, keď je to niečo dobré
Tak vstaň, vstaň

A komu môžeš dôverovať? Rozdávať spravodlivosť
S minimom rozruchu
Komu, miláčik
Rozdávať spravodlivosť...

George Michael with Astrud Gilberto   DESAFiNADO

3:19

Written by Antonio Carlos Jobim, 1952.
English lyrics by Gene Lees, 1965.
Chris Cameron - keyboard. Andy Hamilton - sax. Hugh Burns - guitar.
Taken from the 1996 'Red, Hot & Rio' album.

Note: Original performed by Astrud Gilberto.

Desafinado   (in Portuges)

Se você disser que eu desafino, amor
Saiba que isso em mim provoca imensa dor
Só privilegiados tem ouvido igual ao seu
Eu possuo apenas o que Deus me deu
E se voce insiste em classificar
Com o meu comportamento de anti-musical
Não lhes vou mentir até vou comentar
Que isso é bossa-nova
Que isso é muito natural
Que voce não sabe nem sequer pressente
E que os desafinados também tem um coração
Fotografei você na minha role-flix
Revelou-se a sua enorme ingratidăo
Só não poderá falar assim do meu amor
Que é bem maior que vocę pode encontrar / Você passou a música e esqueceu o principal
Que no peito dos desafinados
No fundo do peito bate calado
No peito dos desafinados também bate um coração
Desafinado (Out of key)   (in English)

If you say my singing is off key, my love
You will hurt my feelings, don't you see, my love?
I wish I had an ear like yours, a voice that would behave
All I have is feeling and the voice God gave.
You insist my music goes against the rules
Yes, but rules were never made for lovesick fools
I wrote this song for you, but you don't care
It's a crooked song, ah, but all my heart is there.
The thing that you would see if you would play you part
Is even if I'm out of tune I have a gentle heart
I took your picture with my trusty Rolleiflex
And now all I have developed is complex.
Possibly in vain, I hope you weaken, oh my love
And forget those rigid rules that undermine my dream of
A life of love and music with someone who'll understand
That even though I may be out of tune when I attempt to say
How much I love you.
And all that matters is the message that I bring, which is:
My dear, one, I love you

George Michael   OUTSIDE

4:45    (singel release, 1998)

MiDi:   MiDi
Note:

Outside

Let's go outside (Let's go outside)
Outside (Outside)...
Outside (Outside)...
Back to nature just human nature getting on back

I think I'm done with the sofa
I think I'm done with the hall
I think I'm done with the kitchen table, baby

Let's go outside (Let's go outside)
In the sunshine
I know you want to,
But you can't say yes
Let's go outside (Let's go outside)
In the moonshine
Take me to the places that I love best

So my angels she says, don't worry
About the things they're saying, yeah
Got no friends in high places
And the game that you gave away wasn't worth playing

Let's go outside (Let's go outside)
In the sunshine
I know you want to,
But you can't say yes
Let's go outside (Let's go outside)
In the meantime
Take me to the places that I love best

And yes I've been bad
Doctor won't you do with me what you can
You see I think about it all the time twenty four seven
You say you want it, you got it
I never really said it before
There's nothing here but flesh and bone
There's nothing more nothing more there's nothing more

Back to nature just human nature getting on back

I think I'm done with the sofa
I think I'm done with the hall
I think I'm done with the kitchen table baby

Let's go out go outside (Let's go outside)
In the sunshine
I know you want to,
But you can't say yes
Let's go outside (Let's go outside)
In the moonshine
Take me to the places that I love best

And yes I've been bad
Doctor won't you do with me you can
You see I think about it all the time
I'd service the community (but I already have you see!)
Never really said it before

There's nothing here but flesh and bone there's nothing more,
Nothing more there's nothing more
Let's go out go outside (let's go outside)
Dancing on the D-train baby (you want it, you got it)
When the grass is jumpin' come on, just keep on funkin'
Keep on funkin', (you want it, you got it) just keep on funkin'
  Von

Poďme von, (poďme von)
Von, (von)
Von, (von)
Naspäť k prírode, len ľudská prirodzenosť sa vracia

Myslím, že mám dosť pohovky
Myslím, že mám dosť haly
A myslím, že mám dosť kuchynského stola, miláčik

Poďme von, (poďme von)
Do slnečného svitu
Ja viem, že ty chceš
Ale nemôžeš povedať áno
Poďme von, (poďme von)
Do mesačného svitu
Vezmi ma na miesta, ktoré mám najradšej

A tak, môj anjel mi vraví, netráp sa
Pre veci, čo vravia (iní), áno
Nemám priazeľov s postavením
A hra, čo si chcel hrať ty, nestála za to

Poďme von, (poďme von)
Do slnečného svitu
Ja viem, že ty chceš
Ale nemôžeš povedať áno
Poďme von, (poďme von)
A zatiaľ
Vezmi ma na miesta, ktoré mám najradšej

A áno, bol som zlý
Doktor, nechcete so mnou niečo urobiť?
Veď vidíte, že na to myslím celý čas - deň čo deň
Vravíte, chceš to, máš to
Nikdy som to predtým naozaj nepovedal
Ale nie je to nič iné len 'mäso a kosti'
Nie je to nič viac, nie je to nič viac

Naspäť k prírode, len ľudská prirodzenosť sa vracia

Myslím, že mám dosť pohovky
Myslím, že mám dosť haly
A myslím, že mám dosť kuchynského stola, miláčik

Poďme von, (poďme von)
Do slnečného svitu
Ja viem, že ty chceš
Ale nemôžeš povedať áno
Poďme von, (poďme von)
Do mesačného svitu
Vezmi ma na miesta, ktoré mám najradšej

A áno, bol som zlý
Doktor, nechcete so mnou niečo urobiť?
Veď vidíte, že na to myslím celý čas
Poslúžil by som komunite (ale to už som urobil, ako vidíte)
Nikdy predtým som to naozaj nepovedal

Ale nie je tu nič iné len 'mäso a kosti', nie je to nič viac
Nič viac, nie je to nič viac
Poďme von, von, (poďme von)
Tancujem na D-Train, miláčik (chceš to, dostaneš to)
Keď tráva poskakuje, poď, tak si zafunkuj
Zafunkuj si, (chceš to, máš to) tak len funkuj ďalej

As

As around the sun the earth knows she's revolving
And the rosebunds know to bloom in early May
Just as hate knows love's the cure
You can rest your mind assured that
I'll be loving you always

As now can't reveal the mystery of tomorrow
But in passing will grow older everyday
Just as all that's born is new
You know what I say is true
That I'll be loving you always

Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4
Until the day that is the day that are no more

Did you know that true love asks for nothing
Her acceptance is the way we pay
Did you know that life has given love a guarantee
To last through forever and another day

* Just as time knew to move on since the beginning
And the seasons know exactly when to change
Just as kindness knows no shame
Know through all your joy and pain
That I'll be loving you always *

As today I know I'm living but tomorrow
Could make me the past
But that I musn't fear
I know deep in my mind
The love of me I've left behind
Cause I'll be loving you always.

Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the dolphines flies and parrots live at sea
Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream
Until the day is night and the night becomes the day
Until the trees and seas just up and fly away
Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4
Until the day that is the day that are no more

Did you know that true love asks for nothing
Her acceptance is the way we pay
Did you know that life has given love a guarantee
To last through forever and another day

As around the sun the earth knows she's revolving
And the rosebunds know to bloom in early May
For now I know deep in my mind
The love of me I've left behind
Cause I'll be loving you always.

* We all know sometimes lifes hates and troubles
Can make you ish you were born in another time and space
But you can bet you life times that and twice its double
That God knew exactly where he wanted you to be placed
So make sure when you say you're in it but not of it
You're not helping to make this earth a place sometimes called
Hell
Change your words into trust and then change that truth into
Love
And maybe our children's grandchildren
And their great-great grandchildren will tell *

Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the dolphines flies and parrots live at sea
Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream

Until the day is night and the night becomes the day
Until the trees and seas just up and fly away
Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4
Until the day that is the day that are no more

George Michael
i KNEW YOU WERE WAiTiNG (FOR ME)

3:58    (singel release, 1987)

Written by Simon Climie & Dennis Morgan. Produced by Narada Michael Walden.
Recorded and mixed by David 'Frazeman' Frazer.

Note: Released also on Aretha's 1986 album "Aretha", an US No.1 & UK No.1 hit single release in 1987, Grammy Award.

I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me)

Like a warrior that fights
And win the battle
I know the taste of victory
Though I went through some nights
Consumed by the shadows
I was crippled emotionally
Somewhere I made it through the heartache
Yes I did. I escaped.
I found my way out of the darkness
I kept my faith (I know you did), kept my faith

When the river was deep I didn't falter
When the mountain was high I still believed
When the valley was low it didn't stop me, no no
I knew you were waiting. I knew you were waiting for me

With the endless desire I kept on searching
Sure in time our eyes would meet
Like the bridge is on fire
The hurt is over, one touch and you set me free
I don't regret a single moment, no I don't look back
When I think of all those disappointments
I just laugh (I know you do), I just laugh

When the river was deep I didn't falter
When the mountain was high I still believed
When the valley was low it didn't stop me
I knew you were waiting. I knew you were waiting for me

So we were drawn together through destiny
I know this love we shared was meant to be
I knew you were waiting, knew you were waiting
I knew you were waiting, knew you were waiting for me

George Michael   WALTZ AWAY DREAMiNG

4:41    (singel release, 1999)

Written and produced by Toby Bourke & George Michael
Note: Released as the 1st singel of Aegean Records, 1997

Waltz Away Dreaming

She's got a song in her head and she'll sing to me
She's got a laugh that reminds me of why she's in love with me
She'd never let show she was lonely in case it had frightened me
She was carpet and stone, independent, alone
But her love always shone around me
Every time...

Waltz away dreaming till your day begins again
Free from the seasons and this state I'm in
And oh, I can't hold it all under one love
It was so long ago when we kissed in the streets
Now you fly like an eagle above
While I waltz away anyway
I'll be waltzing my days away
Searching for this woman I love.

She had a history of joy and pain in time
And she chose to leave
She had a thousand and one photographs
That you would not believe
She'll come to you in disguise
She's there in your children's eyes
Still our mother...
She's still your wife
(So let her...)

Waltz away dreaming till your day begins again
Free from the reasons and this state I'm in
And oh, (trust me, she ain't going anywhere)
I can't hold it all under one love
(Trust me, she told me, when you're ready she'll be there)
It was so long ago (no don't let go of her)
When we kissed in the streets
Now you fly like an eagle above
While I waltz away anyway
I'll be waltzing my days away
Searching for this woman I love

And the moment you see me
I will live in your life
We will walk through my garden
I will see through your eyes
I was in despair 'till she found me there
Every grown man cries with his mother's eyes
And when you're ready too
She'll come back to you
She's waiting
Father...
She's waiting...
You'll see me...
