Louise
It seemed a long time ago
Louise
Ill always remember that day
I crawled on my knees
Begging you to stay
You made me shiver louise
You made me quiver
Now I do the strangest things
I think such lonely thoughts
Forgetting all
Just forgetting you
Louise
Anything at all
Not to think of you
Anything at all
Dont deny it is not true
Louise
I feel I am getting weaker
A life blue on gloomy waves
I feel I am diving deeper
Into the darkest caves
Theres nothing at all
To find a way
Louise louise louise
My heart used to beat
Now it only weeps
Louise louise louise
Uncared the city sleeps
I am twisted in the streets
I am shivering
Into the strangest things
Lonely thoughts and forgetting you louise
And you promised me
You told me
You told me empty lies
Louise louise louise
( my only cord is not to adore , I have to say, it is my only way )
Louise leave me , leave me
No longer interfere
Louise

Garbo
She had exquisite style
She was upper class
She had supernatural grace
A mlange of aphrodite and venus
Combined with an angels face
She didnt talk to the press
She couldnt care less
She didnt even answer the phone
She said on one occasion, without persuasion:
I want to be left alone
From this moment on, from dusk till dawn
Till the end of time, Ill be with you
Youll be with me, forever in my mind
Its you I see before me, oh oh, garbo
Cest toi que je tadore, oh oh, garbo
A lovers greatest story, oh oh, garbo
They say well thats amore! oh oh, garbo
People say on the day of victory, no fatigue is felt
Garbo, its you that has the power
That makes evry mans heart melt
They say that, when the heart is a fire
Sparks fly out of the cage but beauty is like a good wine,
The taste is sweeter with age
No man can guess in cold blood
What he might do in passion
But the things that he deplores today
Are tomorrows latest fashion
Serving ones own passion
Is the greatest slavery
But if in wanting you
I become your slave
I intend no bravery
From this moment on, from dusk till dawn
Till the end of time, Ill be with you
Youll be with me, forever in my mind
Its you I see before me...
....garbo

The Lay of Poor Louise
Ah, poor Louise! the livelong day
She roams from cot to castle gay;
And still her voice and viol say,
Ah, maids, beware the woodland way,
Think on Louise.
Ah, poor Louise! The sun was high,
It smirch'd her cheek, it dimm'd her eye,
The woodland walk was cool and nigh,
Where birds with chiming streamlets vie
To cheer Louise.
Ah, poor Louise! The savage bear
Made ne'er that lovely grove his lair;
The wolves molest not paths so fair-
But better far had such been there
For poor Louise.
Ah, poor Louise! In woody wold
She met a huntsman fair and bold;
His baldric was of silk and gold,
And many a witching tale he told
To poor Louise.
Ah, poor Louise! Small cause to pine
Hadst thou for treasures of the mine;
For peace of mind that gift divine,
And spotless innocence, were thine,
Ah, poor Louise!
Ah, poor Louise! Thy treasure's reft!
I know not if by force or theft,
Or part by violence, part by gift;
But misery is all that's left
To poor Louise.
Let poor Louise some succour have!
She will not long your bounty crave,
Or tire the gay with warning stave-
For Heaven has grace, and earth a grave,
Poor poor Louise.

The great art of films does not consist of descriptive movement of face and body but in the movements of thought and soul transmitted in a kind of intense isolation.

Thank You Louise
Everyone, when she was young,
They said she was the pretty one
She's lovely now, just watch her as she goes
Waiting for the birds to come
She holds the hands of someone young
Whose mother comes and she sees her and she smiles
Thank you Louise
Thank you Louise
Mother of three
Waiting in the check-out line
The supermarket, Christmas time
She eyes someone who doesn't have the change
Takes a dollar from her purse
She pays and doesn't say a word
She winks and grins and Merry Christmas, friend!'
Thank you Louise
Thank you Louise
Mother of three
In Baltimore, the freezing cold,
That chills her darling to the bone
She leaves her work and quits her job
Her brother lay upon the bed
With broken teeth and busted head
He hears the phone and he knows his brother's dead
Thank you Louise
Thank you Louise
Mother of two.

Louise
Coming on strong cant be too long
Gotta get what my body needs
It needs louise
Louise
Gonna break my heart, gotta make a start
Gotta get it together with louise
Ooh louise
Queen in blue jeans,
Boppin at the hop,
Alive with the jive
Rollin with the rock
Louise
Baby gonna move like lightning
Dont blink your eye
The speed Im gonna do is frightening
Everybody move on over
Im electrified
The speeds comin through like a nova
Verse 1
Verse 2
Verse 3
Sparks are gonna fly igniting
Mr dynamite Im burnin up the night
To light ya
Get ready for the big explosion
Call in the reserves theres gonna be a chain reaction
Verse 1

Green Fields And Running Brooks
Ho! green fields and running brooks!
Knotted strings and fishing-hooks
Of the truant, stealing down
Weedy backways of the town.
Where the sunshine overlooks,
By green fields and running brooks,
All intruding guests of chance
With a golden tolerance,
Cooing doves, or pensive pair
Of picnickers, straying there--
By green fields and running brooks,
Sylvan shades and mossy nooks!
And--O Dreamer of the Days,
Murmurer of roundelays
All unsung of words or books,
Sing green fields and running brooks!

Right Before Your Eyes
Every day i sit beside you
On the bus to madison avenue
Work in the big gray store
With the revolving doors
You don't even know my name
I guess that i'm to blame
Don't know the right things to say
So i pretend away
That i'm rudolph valentino
Pull up in my limousine
Oh, won't you come in out of the rain
Things'll never be the same
And then just like greta garbo
You stare like there's no tomorrow
And you'll know what i'm thinking of
Right before your eyes i fall in love with you
Do, do, do ...
Today i'm done with games (today i'm done with games)
Gonna ask you for your name
Say i've been watching you
I even know what you do
Maybe today i'll tell you (maybe today i'll tell you)
I've found the nerve to sell you
On a guy like me
Who wishes that he could be
Your rudolph valentino
Pull up in my limousine
Oh, won't you come in out of the rain
Things'll never be the same
And then just like greta garbo
You stare like there's no tomorrow
And you'll know what i'm thinking of
Right before your eyes i fall in love with you
Do, do, do ...
Right before your eyes i fall in love with you
Right before my eyes you'll say you love me to
Rudolph valentino
I pull up in my limousine
Oh, won't you come in out of the rain
Things'll never be the same
And then just like greta garbo
You stare like there's no tomorrow
And you'll know what i'm thinking of, oo
Do, do, do ...
