[ Instrumental Prelude ]

When some-body loves you /
it’s no good un-less he loves you / all the way /
hap-py to be near you /
when you need some-one to cheer you / all the way /

Tal-ler than the tal-lest tree is /
That’s how it’s got to feel /
Dee-per than the deep blue sea is /
That’s how deep it goes / if it’s real /

When some-body needs you /
it’s no good un-less he needs you / all the way /
Through the good or lean years /
and for all the in-between years / come what may

Who knows where the road will lead us /
Only a fool would say /
But if you’ll let me love you /
it’s for sure I’m gon-na love you / all the way / all the way /

[ Who knows where the road will lead us /
Only a fool would say / ]

So if you’ll let me love you /
it’s for sure I’m gon-na love you / all the way / all / the / way!

Auld Lang Syne
Traditional Scottish Folk Song
Lyrics edited and augmented by poet Robert Burns in 1788

Auld Lang Syne, from “When Harry Met Sally”

Harry: What does this song mean? For my whole life I don’t know what this song means. I mean, ‘Should old acquaintance be forgot”. Does that mean we should forget old acquaintances or does it mean if we happen to forget them we should remember them, which is not possible because we already forgot them!?

Sally: Well may be it just means that we should remember that we forgot them or something. Anyway it’s about old friends.

[ Instrumental: Should auld a-cquain-tance be fo-rgot /
and ne-ver brought to mind?
Should auld a-cquain-tance be for-got /
and days of auld lang syne? ]

Should auld a-cquain-tance be fo-rgot /
and ne-ver brought to mind?
Should auld a-cquain-tance be for-got /
and days of auld lang syne?

For au-auld la-ang syne / my dear
For au-auld lang syne /
We’ll take a cup / of kind-ness yet /
Fo-or days of au-auld la-ang syne /

And here’s a hand / my trusty friend /
And here’s a hand of thine /
We’ll take a cup / of kind-ness yet /
Fo-or au-auld la-ang syne!

[ For au-auld la-ang syne / my dear
For au-auld lang syne /
We'll take a cup of kind-ness yet /
Fo-or au-auld la-ang syne / ]

For au-auld la-ang syne / my dear /
For au-auld lang syne /
We’ll take a cup / of kind-ness yet /
Fo-or au-auld la-ang syne /

For au-auld la-ang syne / my dear /
For au-auld lang syne /
We’ll take a cup / of kind-ness yet /
Fo-or au-auld la-ang syne!

Lyrics by George Doncieux
Music by Francesco Paolo Tosti
English Translation by Evelyn Chih-Yih Chan

Pour un baiser sur ta peau parfumée,
[In exchange] for a kiss on your scented skin,
pour un baiser dans l’or de tes cheveux
for a kiss amidst the gold of your hair,
reçois mon âme toute, ô bien-aimée!
accept my whole soul, oh beloved!
Tu comblerais l’infini de mes voeux…
You would fill the infinity of my wishes…
Par un baiser!
with a kiss!

Pour un baiser distillé dans tes lèvres,
For a pure kiss in your lips,
profond, tenace et lent comme un adieu,
deep, tenacious and slow like an adieu,
souffrir le mal d’amour, et de ses fiévres brûler,
to suffer love-sickness and to burn with its fever[s],
languir et mourir peu à peu…
to languish and to die, little by little…
dans un baiser!
in a kiss!
