What was the most beautiful ‘thing’ that you Charlie Chaplin saw in Europe?
The most beautiful ‘thing’ was Pola Negri!
and I said, ‘Come to New York with me!’

And hear the people cry, ‘here is our beautiful star!’

Got a Little Bit of Love
03:35
|
|||
Got a little bit of love to give you woo hoo …..
I feel so helpless inside,
Got a little bit of love to give you wo hoo …..
But it goes dead inside
I just felt my heart go dead inside
Got a little bit of love to give you woo hoo …..
Will you chew me up and spit me out?
Like the one last night, the one the night before,
last night, last month, last year,
Got a little bit of love to give you woo hoo…..
Are you gonna chew me up and spit me out?
Am I just another of your women?
Got a little bit of love to give you woo hoo…..
The train is leaving the platform and I don’t know what to do without you
Are you gonna chew me up and spit me out
Like the one last night the one the night before , last night, last month,
last year , last year, last year, last year
Got a little bit of love to give you

We Can Go Dancing

|

Take me on a trip
Where we can go dancing
All of the stars in the sky are shining for you and me
I dreamt someday I’m gonna feel free to dance
free to dance with you
I dreamt someday I’m gonna feel free to dance
Free….
Then comes the sun keeps on shining through
through the rain, comes shining through,
Then comes the rain keeps on falling
rain leads me to love again…

Jumping with Zo
04:55
|
|||
We’re gonna jump!
And our hearts are on fire
when we see the stars
and it’s a dark sky
on this silent night
and we’re rising higher
where the eagles fly
when we take a breath
then we’ll feel the sky
We’re gonna jump!
And they call us the dark and the silent ones
And we’re here to fly to save our country
When we hear the radio
When we see the sign
Then we know it’s time
to jump into the night
Cichociemni!
And we hear the Hejnal of Krakow in our hearts!!!!
And the clouds are Black!!!!
Zo ! Zo! Zo!

Hands of Time

|

Just a little letter I’m posting to you
I hope it makes your door because I know how much you need it
Look the day is dark but the sun is shining
I hope it never ends and our love will grow…
So don’t let the hands of time take my love away.
Cause today might be the end
so let our love grow
and don’t let the time take my love away
Help me please to come into your heart!
Cause I love you!
I Love you!
Oh Lord the sun is coming out and I’m singing a song for Polonia!
Oh Lord the sun is coming out as I sing a song for Polonia!
for my brothers and my sisters….
So don’t let the hands of time take my love away!
To my brothers and my sisters….
So don’t let the hands of time take my love away!

My Beloved General
06:16
|
|||
My Heart races as I come into the bar
And my beloved ‘Baca’ serves me a drink
My Heart races as I come into the bar
And our beloved genius serves me a drink
in a bar in Edinburgh
You see this Barman ‘Stan’ was the greatest General Maczek!
And I can’t believe he’s serving me a drink,
He’s lowered to serve me a drink –
I remember when you gave me water….
Remember when we chased the Bolsheviks from Warsaw
and we fought altogether for freedom
Remember when we liberated France
and we fought altogether for freedom
and now you’re serving me a drink!
Stars are in your eyes my Baca
and I realise how lucky I have been
And we fought altogether for Freedom
I’ve got a rhythm in my heart, I’ve got a rhythm in my soul
And we fought altogether for Freedom!

Christine the Great

Christine the great
I can’t say much more about her than that
Christine the great
I can’t say much more
And she took my heart away
A Diamond girl
And I saw her by the swimming pool
in Cairo and she said hello!
Oh her pretty face,
Oh her pretty laughter ,
Oh her pretty smile,
And her smile and those dark eyes!
A British soldier couldn’t take his eyes off her
Never let her go!
Take her hand and love her!

The Mathematician
03:53
|
|||
In Bletchley Park we fell in love
Love, love and I don’t know when I’m going to see you again
He said he was a Mathematician from Poland
He said he was working on something so secret
then he took me by the hand
and stars were shining so brightly
and this was the most romantic night
In Bletchley Park we fell in love
Love, love and I don’t know when I’m going to see you again
He was an Enigma to me, he was an Enigma to me
And I remember laughing so joyfully
and he said ‘ a Kingdom for a horse, a Kingdom for a horse –
King Richard said ‘A Kingdom for a horse – I wish I could save my country…’
You’re Barracading me with your love,
All I know is I wanted you to give me love
All I know is I wanted you to show me love

Mr. Trebus
05:06
|
|||
The creaks in this house all know all of my secrets !
I can’t hide anything from them,
I can’t hide anything cause they all know my song!
Ten years I’ve lived in this house
Ten years I’ve been with a mouse
Ten years I’ve sung in this house and nobody knows it better than me!
‘Mr. Trebus I’m here,’
Mr. Trebus never, never, never fear
Try if you can try to stop collecting these things!
Ten long years! and Ten long years!
and ten years I’ve lived in this house
I miss Poland and I’ll never go back
You try telling yourself – what is lost…
I could never return….
You see, the creaks in this house all know all of my secrets
I can never go home,
I can never go home to my Poland.
And I hide everything from them,
And I hide everything from you.
I’m free as a bird,
I’m free as an Eagle,
I’m free as the mighty Eagle of Poland…

Quo Vadis
02:28
|
|||
This country I don’t know
These people I don’t know
but I know they’re here in my heart
I know they’re here in my soul
These rivers I don’t know
These mountains I don’t know
but I know they’re here in my heart
I know they’re here in my soul
Miles away!
You are !
I don’t even know your name
These people I don’t know
This language I don’t know
but I know they’re here in my heart
but I know they’re here in my soul
One day I’ll be free to go home……

I don’t know what I have got to do
To set the record straight of how much I love you
You’re my daughter and I can’t keep my head above water
I pray for you everyday
but you keep your distance away from me…
Can you hear me calling ?
This is only a mother calling from my heart
I never knew how to show you love
I never knew how to show you how I love you
You’re my daughter and I’m so very proud
I pray for you everyday
but you keep your distance
and like a tree that comes out of me
Branches so deep
And in the frost,
I hear your voice calling me…
Can you hear me calling?
To where the angels sing
To where the roses grow
Can you hear me calling you home …

Snow is Falling
04:23
|
|||
Snow is falling down on me
and I just want to be free
Tell me it’s over,
Tell me I’m free and tell me our love will last
And these strange times are coming
And I have to say goodbye to you,
Just like the snow, our love is melting away
Snow is falling all around
And I can’t understand
Why my feet can’t touch the ground
And these strange times are coming
And I have to say goodbye to you,
Just like the snow, our love has melted away
And this merry-go-round of life is strange
And I can’t feel my feet touch the ground
The snow has melted away
Our love has melted away….

Red Wine

|

Red Wine take away my sorrow
Cause life has been unkind
Red Wine drown my tears away
I’ve been left alone for so many nights and days
He never asked me to marry him
He never asked me to love him
and all the lyrics of every song I hear
seem to have another meaning to me
It’s so lonely without you by my side
I am nothing without you by my side
And the tears they are falling and my face it will never see
I’m so tired and I know that this will never cease
Red Wine drown my tears away
Red Wine take my soul
Jesus save me!
I am lost with your blood in my body …
Red Wine will you save me?
and the night goes so slowly
And the love don’t come down
Red Wine!
Red Wine take away my sorrow
Red Wine Save Me!
