Ne Me Plaignez Pas

Steve Thompson Posted on by

French adaptation by Eddie Marnay of Please Don’t Sympathise

Je sais qu’il me traite
Comme il traite les autres
On dirait presque
Qu’il ne m’aime pas
Quand vous me dites
Tu devrais t’en aller
M®?m’si c’est vrai
«a ne m’aide pas
Je comprends vos raisons
Vous voyez s?r’ment mieux que moi
Oui mais

Ne me plaignez pas
Ma vie est plutÙt belle
Et quand Áa ne va pas
Tous mes amis m’appellent
Je vous remercie
De votre sympathie
Non ne me plaignez pas
Mais restez l®§

Quand je suis seule
Je suis bien dans ma chambre
Avec un livre
Ou un film ancien
Et pour ma f®?te
Si c’est vrai qu’il m’oublie
J’ai vos cadeaux
Pour me chauffer le coeur

Oui… ne me plaignez pas
Ma vie est plutÙt belle
Et quand Áa ne va pas
Tous mes amis m’appellent
Je vous remercie
Pour votre sympathie
Non ne me plaignez pas
Mais restez l®§

Je comprends vos raisons
Vous voyez s?r’ment mieux que moi
Pourtant…

Ne me plaignez pas
Ma vie est plutÙt belle
Et quand Áa ne va pas
Tous mes amis m’appellent
Je vous remercie
De votre sympathie
Non ne me plaignez pas
Mais restez

Please Don’t Sympathise

Steve Thompson Posted on by

Everybody tells me
I should try to forget you
They tell me why but don’t tell me how
I know they mean well
But it does not help me
I’ll work it out by myself somehow
Gotta be on my own
It’s just something I must face alone

Please Don’t Sympathise
It Really Doesn’t Help
Don’t Give Me Your Advice
Keep It To Yourself
I Appreciate You’re Taking Time To Call
But Please Don’t Sympathise
It Doesn’t Help At All

Friends come to see me
But I just can’t face them
I feel a fool
When they see me cry
Since you walked out I’ve been so downhearted
It’s hard to take
But I know I must try

Please Don’t Sympathise etc

Recorded by Shena Easton and

Celine Dion (adaptation Eddie Marnay)

The Greatest Adventure

Steve Thompson Posted on by

There’s a little love
In The Coldest Land
Hiding in the darkness
Longing to be found
And there’s a little hope
In the saddest heart
Hoping to find
And be found
But love is rare
So when you find it
Take the strongest chains
And bind it
Closely to your heart
Where it is safe

When you go in search of love
It’s the Greatest Adventure of them all

Through the darkest night
So alone
Running from the shadows
In the great unknown
There aren’t any charts to follow
Journey on and hope tomorrow
You may see the road that you should take

When you go in search of love
It’s the Greatest Adventure of them all

Hurry Home

Steve Thompson Posted on by
Lying awake thinking of you

It helps to see the lonely night time through

You’ve been away, seems like a year

But one day is too long without you here

I know it has to be that you’re away

But I will call you up with just one thing to say:

Hurry home, hurry home

Now I know just what lonely really means

Hurry home, hurry home

Now I know just how much you mean to me

Hurry home

Tonight is so still

I turn out the light

But there won’t be a loving kiss goodnight

Then my imagination starts to play

What if you decide to stay another dayÖ

Hurry home, hurry home

Now I know just what lonely really means

Hurry home, hurry home

Now I know just how much you mean to me

Hurry home.

I know you’ve got things to do

And I don’t want to trouble you

But I just can’t stand the lonelinessÖ

Hurry home, hurry home

Now I know just what lonely really means

Hurry home, hurry home

Now I know

Just how much you mean to me

Hurry home

Hurry home

Recorded by Wavelength and Sara Brightman

Sailing On A Friendship

Steve Thompson Posted on by

with Brian Oliver

We all have our hopes and dreams
They sometimes seem out of reach
But climb on my shoulders and we’ll touch the sky.

Remember you’re not alone
We all share a common goal
We all want the best from life
So get on board and hold tight.

CHORUS:
We’re Sailing on a Friendship
Through any kind of weather
We’re Sailing on a Friendship
We’re all in this together.

VERSE 2:

Tomorrow is ours to build
We’re climbing those distant hills
Beyond them are fields of Hope
So take my hand. Don’t let go.

REPEAT CHORUS

We’re together
To the very end.
I call you brother
I call you friend

REPEAT CHORUS

I Had a Dream

Steve Thompson Posted on by

I had a dream
It seemed so real
You were back home with me
Opened my eyes
To realise
That it just could not be

I had a dream
A beautiful scene
We were all safe and sound
But with daylight
The image took flight
No trace of you was found

Far away so far away
People drift apart
Doesn’t matter where you are
You’re still in my heart

I had a dream
It seemed so real
Reached out my hand to touch you
Then came the dawn
The Feeling was gone
And you slowly fade from view

We said goodbye
And watched you go
Felt our hearts would break
If dreams are all
I see of you
I never want to wake

Then someone spoke
As I awoke
I had a hazy feeling
And then I saw
You walk through the door
I thought that I was dreaming
Can it be true?
It’s really you
I thought that I was dreaming

Love Takes Prisoners

Steve Thompson Posted on by

It seems so easy in the movies
The tears are never real
And if the hero has a broke heart
You know that it will heal
By the end of the reel
But in real life
You can’t take chances
You’re only safe
In those scripted romances

Love takes prisoners
(whoa oh oh oh)
Steals their very soul
Some are willing
Some are weak
None are ever free to go
Love takes prisoners
(whoa oh oh oh)

There could be hidden complications
You can’t forsee
Don’t make a move until you’re certain
You can break free
If it all goes wrong
I don’t wanna deter you from trying
Just be sure that you don’t end up crying

REPEAT CHORUS

Love takes prisoners
And never lets them go
Some get hurt trying to escape
Now they’re laying low
The higher you get on love
The further you have to fall
Some people play it safe
And never give their hearts at all

REPEAT CHORUS

Empty Pockets

Steve Thompson Posted on by

Standing all alone
With nowhere to go
some people do it all
Not for fun just for show
Day turns to night
Night turns to day
Money turns to dust
And then it blows away

The world is no fun
With Empty pockets
No food in the freezer
No Gas in the car
The world is no fun
With empty pockets
Leaves you wond’rin
Who your best friends are
The World is no fun
With empty pockets

People famous
People rich
Will rob you
Cos their fingers itch
They got everything they need
But still their minds are filled with greed

Friendless and cold
Outside looking in
I’d change it all
If I knew where to begin

It’ll End In Tears

Steve Thompson Posted on by

We built a town of iron and steel
Sweated blood, began to believe
We were Gods made in furnace flames
As we watched our town growing in fame
but nothing lasts, forever’s a dream
money says it’s time to leave

It’ll end in tears, it’ll end in tears
We’re only smiling to hide our fears
When the battle is lost and the warriors lay down
It’ll all end in tears, when they tear down this town

Fear of a closure has long been there
But people here have never despaired
With hearts and heads held so proud
We stand tall as giants in our home town
In a great world of iron and steel
Consett, is steel town, takes the lead

It’ll end in tears, it’ll end in tears
We’re only smiling to hide our fears
When the battle is lost
and the warriors lay down
It’ll all end in tears,
when they tear down this town

Bridges and Towers
are built with our Steel
Consett is steel town and always will be

It’ll end in tears, it’ll end in tears
I’ve tried to tell them but nobody hears

It’ll end in tears, it’ll end in tears
We’re only smiling to hide our fears
When the battle is lost
and the warriors lay down
It’ll all end in tears,
when they tear down this town
