Cher Lyrics

The Girl From Ipanema lyrics - Cher

Tall and tan and young and lovely

The girl from Ipanema goes walking

And when she passes

Each one she passes goes a-a-h!

When she walks she's like a samba

That swings so cool and sways so gentle

That when she passes

Each one she passes goes a-a-h!

Ooh but I watch her so sadly

How can I tell her I love her

Yes I would give his heart gladly

But each day when she walks to the sea

She looks straight ahead not at me

Tall and tan and young and lovely

The girl from Ipanema goes walking

And when she passes

I smile but she doesn't see

She never sees me

Ooh but I watch her so sadly

How can I tell her I love her

Yes I would give my heart gladly

But each day when she walks to the sea

She looks ahead not at me

Tall and tan and young and lonely

The girl from Ipanema goes walking

And when she passes

I smile but she doesn't see

It's Not Unusual lyrics - Cher

(originally by Tom Jones)

It's not unusual to be love by anyone

It's not unusual to have fun with anyone

When I see you hanging about with anyone

It's not unusual to see me cry

I wanna die

It's not unusual to go out at anytime

When I see you out and about it's such a crime

If you should ever want to be love by anyone

It's not unusual it happens every day

No matter what you say

You'll find it's happens all the time

Love will never do whatcha you want it to

Why can't this crazy love be mine

It's not unusual to be mad at anyone

It's not unusual to be sad with anyone

But if I ever find that you have changed at anytime

It's not unusual to find out I'm in love with you

Time lyrics - Cher

Some people run

Some people crawl

Some people don't even move at all

Some roads leads forward

Some leads back

Some roads are bathed in white

Some are wrapped fearful black

Time oh time

Where did you go

Time oh good good time

Where did you go

Some people never get

Some never give

Some people never die

And some never live

Some folks treat me mean

Some treat me kind

Most folks just go their way

Don't pay me no mind

Time oh time

Where did you go

Time oh good good time

Where did you go

Sometmes I'm satsify

Sometimes I'm not

Sometimes my face is cold

Sometimes it is hot

Sometimes I laugh

Sunrise I cry

Midnight I'm in between

And wondering why

Milord lyrics - Cher

(originally by Édith Piaf)

Come on get wise, Milord

Her lips tells lies, Milord

The girl that you adore

Has found another guy

She just got bored, Milord

Now you're ignored, Milord

Deep down inside your pride

Won't let you say goodbye

That southern belle, Milord

Has got a heart of ice

Love can be done, Milord

As well as paradise

You met her at a bar

Her lips were ruby red

Her lazy southern draw

Soon turn your noble head

You swore you never part

Though you live far away

How could you know a heart

Like other hearts would stray

Come on get hip, Milord

And let life rip, Milord

Be sure there's plenty more

Of loving to be done

There, just to meet, Milord

With lips as sweet, Milord

And hearts to make and break

Before the race is run

So hit the town, Milord

Come on and be my guest

We'll turn it upside down

And devil takes the rest

The story is the same

Whenever young love grows

And no one is to blame

It's just the way it goes

You're not the first who's found

That love can be unkind

And still the world goes round

But one heart's left behind

"All I Really Want To Do" (1965)

All I Really Want To Do lyrics - Cher

(originally by Bob Dylan)

Now I ain't lookin'

To compete with you

Beat on, cheat on, mistreat you

Simplify you, classify you

Deny, defy, mystify you

All I really want to do

Is baby, be friends with you

Baby, be friends with you

Now I ain't lookin'

To fight with you

Frighten you or uptight you

Drag you down or drain you down

Chain you down or bring you down

All I really want to do

Is baby, be friends with you

Baby, be friends with you

I ain't lookin' to block you up

Dock or rock or lock you up

Analyze you, categorize you

Finalize or advertise you

All I really want to do

Is baby, be friends with you

Baby, be friends with you

I don't want to straight-face you up

Race or chase or track or trace you

Or disgrace you or displace you

Or define you or confine you

All I really want to do

Is baby, be friends with you

Baby, be friends with you

Now, I don't want to meet your kin

Make you spin or do you in

Or select you or dissect you

Or inspect you or reject you

All I really want to do

Is baby, be friends with you

Baby, be friends with you

I Go To Sleep lyrics - Cher

(originally by The Kinks)

When I look up from my pillow

I dream you are there with me

Though you are far away

I know you always be near to me

I go to sleep, sleep

And imagine that you're there with me

I go to sleep, sleep

And imagine that you're there with me

I look around me and feel

That you are ever so close to me

Those tears that fall from my eyes

Bring back memories of you and me

I go to sleep, sleep

And imagine that you're there with me

I go to sleep, sleep

And imagine that you're there with me

I was wrong, I was right

I will love you 'til the day I die

You alone, you alone and no one else

You were meant for me

When morning comes once more

I have the loneliness you left me

Each day drags by until night

Finally descends on me

I go to sleep, sleep

And imagine that you're there with me

I go to sleep, sleep

And imagine that you're there with me

Needles And Pins lyrics - Cher

(originally by Jackie DeShannon)

Saw him today

I saw his face, it was the face I love

And I knew I had to run away

And get down on my knees and pray

That they go away but still they begin

Needles and pins

Because of all my pride

The tears I gotta hide

Hey I thought I was smart

I'd won his heart

I didn't think I'd lose

But I see she worst to him than me

Let him go ahead take her love instead

And one day he will see

Just how to say please

Wow and get down on his knees

That's how it begins

Hurtin' him hurtin' him

Why can't I stop and tell myself

It's wrong so wrong

Why can't I stand up

Tell myself to be strong

Because I saw him today

I saw his face it was the face I love

I can't let go, although I know

He'll make me cry until the day I die

But people I got to live now

Wow Lord knows I should forgive now

That's how they begin

You'll feel those needles and pins

Somebody stop'em now

Stop those needles and pins

Somebody take'em away now

Stop those needles and pins

Somebody stop'em now

Stop those needles and pins

Somebody take'em away now

Stop those needles and pins

Don't Think Twice lyrics - Cher

(originally by Bob Dylan)

It ain't no use to sit and wonder why, baby

If'n you don't know by now

It ain't no use to sit and wonder why, baby

If'n you don't know by now

When your rooster crows at the break of dawn

Look out your window, and I'll be gone

You're the reason I'm a-travelin on

But don't think twice, it's all right

Ain't no use in turning on your light babe

The light I never knowed

And it ain't no use in turning on your light babe

I'm on the dark side of the road

But I wish there was something you would do or say

To try and make me change my mind and stay

But we never did too much talkin' anyway

Don't think twice, it's all right

So it ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal

Like ya never done before

And it ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal

I can't hear ya anymore

I'm a-thinkin' and a-wonderin' walkin down the road

I once loved a woman, a child I am told

I gave her my heart but she wanted my soul

But don't think twice, it's all right

So long honey baby

Where bound I can't tell

And goodbye is too good a word baby

So I'll just say fare-thee-well

I ain't sayin' you treated me unkind

You coulda ever better, but I don't mind

You just kinda wasted my precious time

Don't think twice, it's all right

Dream Baby lyrics - Cher

I found the boy for me

He's my dream baby

He doesn't now that I

That I almost die when

When he walks by and says hello

He's not like the guys in books

He's not really great on looks, but

But I don't care, I love him so

And I feel so good

Whenever he's around

Feel so good when he's around

Oh, oh, oh

I dream of him each night

I dream that he holds me tight

And somehow I'll make that

Dream come true

I'm gonna pray for the

Pray for the day he says

"Hey, pretty baby, I love you"

And I feel so good

Whenever he's around

Feel so good when he's around

I dream of him each night

I dream that he holds me tight

And somehow I'll make that

Dream come true

I'm gonna pray for the

Pray for the day he says

"Baby, I love you"

Oh, oh, woo oh, oh

I love you

The Bells Of Rhymney lyrics - Cher

(originally by Pete Seeger)

Oh, what will you give me?"

Say the sad bells of Rhymney

"Is there hope for the future?"

Say the brown bells of Murther

"Who made the might on Earth?

Say the black bells of Ronda

"And, who killed the minor?"

Say the green bells of Blantyre

"Even God is uneasy"

Say the morse bells of Swansea

"And what will you give me?"

Say the sad bells of Rhymney

"So worried, sister's white"

Say the silver bells of White

"And what will you give me?"

Say the sad bells of Rhymney

"Oh, what will you give me?"

Say the sad bells of Rhymney

"Is there hope for the future?"

Say the brown bells of Murther

"Who made the might on Earth?

Say the black bells of Ronda

"And, who killed the minor?"

Say the green bells of Blantyre

Girl Don't Come lyrics - Cher

(originally by Chris Andrews)

You have a date for half past eight tonight

Some distant bell starts chiming nine

You wanna see her, oh, you wanna see her, oh yeah

But you wait, you wait and wait

Girl don't come

The time rolls on, those minutes fly by

You wanna go, but just you try, guy

You wanna see her, oh, you wanna see her, oh yeah

But you wait, you wait and wait

Girl don't come

You've been stood up, tears fill your eyes, whoa

You hurt inside, you wanna die

You had a date for half past eight tonight

Some distant bell starts chiming nine

You wanna see her, you wanna see her, oh yeah

So you wait, you wait and wait

Girl don't come

You've been stood up, tears fill your eyes, whoa

You hurt inside, you wanna die

You wanna see her, oh, you wanna see her, oh yeah

But you wait, you wait and wait

Girl don't come

Girl don't come, girl don't come

Girl don't come, girl don't come

Girl don't come, girl don't come

Come And Stay With Me lyrics - Cher

I'll send away all my false pride

And I'll forsake all of my life

Yes I'll be as true as true can be

If you'll come and stay with me

All lovers of the past, I'll leave behind

They'll never be another on my mind

I'll do all I can so you'll feel free

If you'll come and stay with me

The promise I made most faithfully

I'll keep still if you decide to leave

I'll try and see that you have all you need

If you'll come and stay with me

Yes I'll be as true as true can be

If you'll come and stay with me

Live a life no others have ever known

But I know you think that I'm hardly grown

Oh thank God at last and finally

I can see you're gonna stay with me

I can see you're gonna stay with me

Cry Myself To Sleep lyrics - Cher

Every night, I lay my head

On my pillow on my bed

And I just cry myself to sleep

I know I shouldn't cry

Over words that were all lies

But still, I cry myself to sleep

Each night, I fight the tears

But still they fall

And all the memories linger on

He's gone, he's gone

And now there's nothing but to cry

Cry myself to sleep

Still, I cry myself to sleep

Each night, I fight those tears

But still, they fall

And all the memories linger on

He's gone, he's gone, he's gone

And now there's nothing but to cry

Ah, cry myself to sleep

Ah, cry myself to sleep

Ah, cry myself to sleep

Blowin' In The Wind lyrics - Cher

(originally by Bob Dylan)

How many roads most a man walk down

Before you call him a man?

How many seas must a white dove sail

Before she sleeps in the sand?

Yes, how many times must the cannonballs fly

Before they're forever banned?

The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind

The answer is blowin' in the wind

Yes, how many years can a mountain exist

Before it's washed to the sea?

Yes, how many years can some people exist

Before they're allowed to be free?

Yes, how many times can a man turn his head

Pretending he just doesn't see?

The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind

The answer is blowin' in the wind

Yes, how many times must a man look up

Before he can see the sky?

Yes, how many ears must one man have

Before he can hear people cry?

Yes, how many deaths will it take 'til he knows

That too many people have died?

The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind

The answer is blowin' in the wind

I Got You Babe lyrics - Cher

[HER:] They say we're young and we don't know

We won't find out until we grow

[HIM:] Well I don't know if all that's true

'Cause you got me, and baby I got you

[HIM:] Babe
[BOTH:] I got you babe I got you babe

But at least I'm sure of all the things we got

[HIM:] Babe
[BOTH:] I got you babe I got you babe

[HIM:] I got flowers in the spring I got you to wear my ring

And if I get scared, you're always around

'Cause I don't care, with you I can't go wrong

[HIM:] Then put your little hand in mine

There ain't no hill or mountain we can't climb

[HIM:] I got you to hold my hand
[HER:] I got you to understand
[HIM:] I got you to walk with me

[HER:] I got you to hold me tight
[HIM:] I got you, I won't let go
[HER:] I got you to love me so

The Greatest Thing lyrics - Cher (duet with Lady Gaga)

[Cher:]

I don't know why you hurt inside,

Or what was said to make you cry.

I hope that you can see,

You are the greatest thing to me.

I don't wa-wanna waste another day,

Without telling you that, baby, you're great.

And I can see it written on your face,

G-R-E-A-T.

Something you can face.

'Cause when I'm with you I fall apart (fall apart),

To heal your permanently broken heart (broken heart),

Baby, you're the greatest to me,

No, no matter what, what, what.

[Chorus:]

I don't know why you hurt inside,

Or what was said to make you cry.

I hope that you can see,

You are the greatest thing to me.

And when,

You're feeling like you're not enough,

I'll give you wings, I'll lift you up.

I hope that you can see,

You are the greatest, greatest thing to me.

[Lady Gaga:]

When all your thoughts are dark and insecure,

I'll build you a light, cause baby, I'm sure,

That loving you has made me better.

I'll take all your shadows and make sure that you shine.

[Cher & Lady Gaga:]

'Cause when I'm with you I fall apart (fall apart),

I hear your permanently broken heart (broken heart),

Baby, you're the greatest to me,

Or what was said to make you cry.

I hope that you can see,

You are the greatest thing to me.

You're feeling like you're not enough,

I'll give you wings, I'll lift you up.

I hope that you can see,

You are the greatest, greatest thing to me.

The greatest thing, greatest thing, greatest thing to me,

I will repeat myself so I know that you're l-listening.

The greatest thing, greatest thing, greatest thing to me,

I will repeat myself so I know you're l-listening.

To heal your permanently broken heart (broken heart),

Baby, you're the greatest to me,

No, no matter what, what, what.

I don't know why you hurt inside,

Or what was said to make you cry.

I hope that you can see,

You are the greatest thing to me.

Welcome To Burlesque lyrics - Cher

[from "Burlesque" soundtrack]

Show a little more,

Show a little less,

Add a little smoke

Welcome to Burlesque,

Everything you dream of,

But never can possess

Nothing's what it seems

Welcome to Burlesque,

[Chorus:]

Oh, everyone is buying,

Put your money in my hand,

If you got a little extra

well, give it to the band,

You may not be guilty

But you're ready to confess

Tell me what you need,

Welcome to Burlesque,

You can dream of Coco,

Do it at your risk

The Triplets grant you mercy

But not your every wish,

Jesse keeps you guessing,

So cool and statuesque

"Behave yourself" says Georgia

Welcome to Burlesque,

[Chorus:]

Oh, everyone is buying,

Put your money in my hand,

If you want a little extra,

Well, you know where I am,

Something very dark

Is playing with your mind

It's not the end of days,

It's just a bump and grind

Show a little more

Show a little less

Add a little smoke

Welcome to… Burlesque
