Jaar 1991

In 1991 doet Clouseau voor de 2de maal mee met het eurosong festival deze keer mogen ze wel naar Rome waar het festival door gaat. Ze werden met Geef het op 16de van de 22 landen. Door dit avontuur brachten ze een engelstalige cd uit met vele nummers die vanuit het nederlands naar het engels zijn vertaal van hun vorige 2 cd's. Ook brengen ze een live cd uit.

Geef het op:

Is het niet waar

dat ik jou lang geleden zei

hem te vergeten

kom terug bij mij

Geef het op

kom terug bij mij

hahahahahaahhhhhhaaaaa

hoeoeoeoe

Je blijft het steeds proberen

hij is het echt niet waard

loop hem niet zomaar achterna

Geef het op

Geef het op, meisje

Geef het op

Geef het op, meisje

Ik geef je meer

dan iemand ooit gegeven heeft

Ik ben altijd met jou begaan

Als je denkt aan de tijden die je

met me hebt beleefd

zou je me nooit meer laten staan

Geef het op

Geef het op, meisje

Geef het op

Geef het op, meisje

Ik zal blijven hopen

Ik wil jou dicht bij me, dag en nacht

'k Zou m'n ziel verkopen

als de duivel jou weer bij me bracht

Geef het op

Geef het op, meisje

Geef het op

Geef het op, meisje

1. She's after me:

She looks like a statue

cut out of stone by some great artist

but she's a killer

with many names on her deadlist

But if you really want to give her a try, go ahead

though I think you'd better try to cool down instead

Come buy me a drink

and forget about her

Because

Chorus

She's after me and I'm frightened to death

that lovely lady's put a price on my head

Don't see no reason why she's after me

All of my life's in jeopardy

She's had lots of men, she tore them apart

she didn't let them be

No, she's a killer

and you'll be the next on her deadlist

and if you really want to give her a try, go ahead

Still I'm sure you'd better try to cool down instead

Let's go for a drink and forget all about her

Because

2. That's alricht:

In the darkness of the night

I'm sitting here all by myself

and the TV gives off light

but it doesn't really help

And I go back to the time

when she looked me up and down

And when she said, you will be mine

I just followed like a clown

Chorus

But that's alright

'cause her eyes were full of rainbows

But that's alright

she made princes out of toads

I don't know why she felt she had to go

But that's alright, that's alright

Every night and every day

How she taunted, how she teased

I can confidently say

that she just did as she pleased

Chorus

Oh and each and every night

I keep thinking how it hurts

and the TV's on alright

but the image isn't hers

I remember every time

when I looked her up and down

That's a memory so fine

my head spinning round

3. Close encounters:

Don't cry now

You know it happens to the best of us

Goodbye now

and don't forget about the rest of us

I'm staying

You never know if they can use me here

I'm praying

I won't be looking when you disappear

And everybody is looking out

for close encounters of another kind

And it won't help me if shout

But I'm getting pretty close this time

You're on my mind

Don't worry

I should have told you to beware of me

Don't hurry

Come back to see whatever's left of me

I've cried some

But I suppose I'm getting colder now

You've died some

But even you are getting older now

And everybody's looking out

for close encounters of another kind

And it won't help me if I shout

but I'm getting pretty close this time

You're on my mind, all of the time

Don't cry now

4. Louise:

Who's gonna need me in the morning

If you're not there Louise

Who's gonna feed me when I'm starving

If you take your bags and leave

Please don't look at me, I'm crying

Can't you see that I'm dying

This ain't the way things ought to be

I guess I knew I had it coming

Just didn't know you'd go so soon

You never slow down, you're always running

And leave me howling at the moon

Please don't look at me, I'm falling

Can't you hear me when I'm calling

You've always been so hard to please

Louise

Who's gonna help me through the night now

If all I have is memories

Who's gonna tell me it's alright now

If all I want is you Louise

Please don't look at me, I'm crying

Can't you see that I'm dying

You've always been so hard to please

5. With a woman like you:

Now living ain't easy

It's a difficult ride

Sometimes I feel like a man

Who's all washed up inside

But then when that feeling

Is bringing me down

I know that I will recover

I'll pick myself off the ground

With a woman like you

Sometimes I've regretted

The things that I've done

But I have discovered love's meaning

And the beauty and joy I have won

With a woman like you

With a woman like you I could take it

With a woman like you I could make it

With a woman like you I could go anywhere

And do anything I wanna do

With a woman like you

6. When you smile:

I'm sitting in front of a piece of paper

Trying to write something new

I'm sitting all alone at a table

Thinking all the time about you

Waiting by the phone

You might just call me

I really don't know what to do

I'm sitting all alone at this table

Thinking all the time about you

(Chorus)

And when you smile

You make me feel so good, mmm

And you smile most of the time

Looking for the words to say I love you

But I can't find them at all

Sitting all alone at a table

Still waiting for your call

7. Give it up:

You said you loved me

And you made it sound sincere

Now I'm just wishing you were here

Give it up, wish you were here

You wanna lose yourself

In someone elses eyes

How could you ever pass me by

(Chorus)

Give it up, give it up

Give it up, baby

There was a time

When you would turn to me and say

Baby you're always on my mind

But how could I know

That you would let me down some day

And leave me for some other guy

(Chorus)

Won't you stop denying

The love I know you feel for me

Baby keep on trying

It's time we face reality

8. One last nicht:

You were so right and I was wrong

And now I know where I belong

You'd had enough and I didn't see

How the darkness closed in on me

I want you back again

Wherever you are, whatever you do

You must decide, I will leave it up to you

I realize I don't have a clue

But I go on praying that my wish will come true

I want you back again

(Chorus)

Give me one last night to love you

You and I alone, happy on our own

Give me one last night to love you

You and I alone, living on our own

You had high hopes, I had no time

So I never noticed when you cried

I realize how foolish I've been

Won't you forgive me and come back again

'cause I want you close to me

(Chorus)

Lend me your voice, Lord, to pray and to plead

And if in the end you will go as you said

I'll be full of regrets and I'll never forget

(Chorus)

You were so right and I was wrong

9. Nathalie:

First time I saw you, you were smiling

you stole my heart, Nathalie

Ooh I adored you for a while and

now you tell me you wanna leave

Every night and day I'm praying

Please believe what I'm saying

This ain't the way things ought to be

So won't you please stay with me

Chorus

Nathalie,

be with me, stay with me

You're so hard to please

My love grows bigger by the hour

I can't move 'cause I'm much too scared

I wish I wasn't, mm, such a coward

but it's hard to be a real man

Now I'm missing you, I'm crying

I'm not perfect but at least I'm trying

This ain't love, it's a disease

Do it to me one more time, if you please

10. Anna:

Chorus

Anna, when I'm with you

I can hardly hold my fire

Anna, tender moments

that are always gonna take us higher

You're still in bed

while I'm fixing some coffee

I look at you in the morning light

and I see

You've kicked away

the covers and your hair is a mess

and I snuggle close and kiss your nose

while you sweetly mumble yes

Chorus

We cuddle up and softly you start talking

I crack a smile

because you can't help yawning

But this is Sunday

so we don't really have a lot to do

So we get back between the sheets

and make love 'till high noon

Chorus

We huggle close together

and we talk of this and that

and then I know that you love me so

and it makes me glad

11. She's all mine:

She had the look, she had lovely eyes

She turned around and she laughed

and went off with me

But when you came, she got so excited

It's such a shame

You'll have to go, you see

'Cause

Chorus

She's all mine

You think she might be yours

But then I know she's mine

She's all mine

You think she might be yours

But I'm tellin' you, tellin' you, tellin' you that

She is all mine

Only yesterday she called me honey baby

Oh but obviously I'm not the only one she says it to

I can see it now: you wanna steal my lady

You're dreaming anyhow

Well more fool you

'Cause

Chorus

Shee smiles at you and winks at me

Strings us along

Puppets both you and me, me and you

I toss and turn in my sleep

She makes us both feel really cheap

Oh, but still there's nothing there for you

'Cause

12. Heaven:

Heaven

Is the place where I would be

But no one

Can escape reality

I should have known but you were on my mind

It's raining

On a cold and weary day

I'm hiding

Are you with me in a way

I wish you knew you've been on my mind

You can't deny what is real

But it's true

In my heart I know what I feel

That heaven

Is the place for us to be

But no one

Can escape reality

But you should know you're always on my mind

You can't deny what is real

But it's true

In my heart I know what I feel

That heaven is the place for you

Heaven is the place for me

Heaven is the place for you and me

Heaven

In heaven
