A particular thanks goes to Istvan (Accordioncrasy) for the sheet music. -

LYRICS: French version by Jacques Plante

Domino, Domino, Le printemps chante en moi Dominique
Le soleil s'est fait beau, j'ai le coeur comme un' boîte à musique j'ai besoin de toi, de tes mains sur moi,
De ton corps, doux et chaud, j'ai envie d'être aimée Domino
Méfie-toi, mon amour, je t'ai trop pardonné j'ai perdu plus de nuits que tu m'en as données.
Bien plus d'heures a t'attendre, qu'à te prendre sûr mon coeur.
Il se peut qu'à mon tour je te fasse du mal
Tu m'en as fait toi-même et ça t'est bien égal
Tu t'amuses de mes peines et je m'use de t'aimer.
Domino, Domino, j'ai bien tort de me mêttre en colêre,
Avec toi, Domino, je sais trop qu'il n'y a rien à faire
T'as le coeur léger, tu ne peux changer, mais je t'aime,
Que veux tu? Je ne peux pas changer, moi non plus.
Domino, Domino, je pardonne toujours, mais reviens
Domino, Domino, et je ne te dirai plus rien.
*****
LYRICS: English version by Don Raye

Domino, Domino, you're an angel that heaven has sent me,
Domino, Domino, you're a devil designed to torment me,
When your heart must know that I love you so,
Tell me why, tell me why, why do you make me cry, Domino,

Domino, Domino, won't you tell me you'll never desert me?
Domino, Domino, if you stay I don't care how you hurt me,
Fate has made you so, you can't change, I know,
You can't change, though you try, but then neither can I, Domino,
Just one look in your eyes and I melt with desire,
Just a touch of your hands and I burst into fire,
And my whole world fills with music when I'm lost in your embrace,

But I know that you're fickle and I'm not misled,
Each attractive new face that you see turns your head,
And it scares me that tomorrow, someone else may take my place,
Domino, Domino, you're an angel that heaven has sent me,
Domino, Domino, you're a devil designed to torment me,
When your heart must know that I love you so,
Tell me why, tell me why, why do you make me cry, Domino,
Domino, Domino, I'll forgive anything that you do,
Domino, Domino, nothing matters if I have you.

LYRICS: German version by Imre Sallay

Ja, der Schmerz, ja der Schmerz,
er belastet so schrecklich die Leute,
mal der Kopf, mal das Herz,
Ärzte wissen, wie oft man betreute,
das war immer so, und das bleibt auch so,
ja der Schmerz, ja der Schmerz,
hier wird jeder der Kranken bald froh!

In der Klinik sagt jeder, «ich werde gesund,
nun hab' ich vom Doktor den richtIgen Befund,
oh es wird so wunderbar sein,
ohne Schmerzen, ohne Pein,
bin so froh, dass ich da bin, am richtigen Weg,
für uns gibt es hier Hoffnung, s'ist ein Privileg,
dass wir da sind, macht uns mehr Mut,
denn es geht uns bald recht gut!»

Ja, der Schmerz, ja der Schmerz,
er belastet so schrecklich die Leute,
mal der Kopf, mal das Herz,
Ärzte wissen, wie oft man betreute,
das war immer so, und das bleibt auch so,
ja der Schmerz, ja der Schmerz,
hier wird jeder der Kranken bald froh!

«Mit dem Schmerz, mit der Pein,
lässt man uns hier drin nicht mehr allein,
wir sind froh, hoffnungsvoll,
so schön kann Leben wieder sein!»

@guyotville06 André Hélas! Je n'ai fait que ajouter les images à la musique de Brian-Irlande et Lillo-Italie ... Je voudrais joué comme Lillo ... En fait, son jeu m'a donné envie de commencer à jouer de nouveau au printemps dernier ... Je quitte pour 10 années .... je vous envoie "Somewhere My Love" que je jouer de l'accordéon avec Brian-Irlande qui m'accompagne ...Fran-USA

[edsternet]

Wow, collaborations between favourite artists!

This is a real bonus. Thank you for producing and posting this one.

Congratulations to Lillo, Brian and Fran

[AccordionLadyMi]

@edsternet Thanks Ed for the nice comments...I have the version of this that is twice as long, but Lillo would not let me put it on...It's probably a good thing because I would have had to find twice as many pictures...Have a great Easter...Fran

[makentv]

Thanks Charles...I love this music...Lillo and Brian sound great together...I have this music on an extended length version...I inserted a few images of my grandkids in this one - The little guy on the dishwasher door, and the two girls on carousel are my grandkids...My great niece and nephew are the kids driving the truck...The other images I found on the internet or photobucket...Fran

Lillo and Brian this waltz is very beautifully played and Fran's video is icing on the cake. A very professional production.
