Fly 2

The italics lines (which are in Spanish), more spoken than sung and very faint in the distance, do not appear in the CD-booklet. Thanks to Gene Laycock and MacKenzie, Nilda, and Roberto Gonzalez I can give the Spanish lines as well as a translation in English shown above.

The original version of "Once In A Lifetime" is on the Gregorian album Sadisfaction (1991), by the Sisters of Oz which was the name Frank Peterson gave to the two female vocalists featured on Sadisfaction. Despite the name, this female duo are not actual sisters. The dark-haired Susana Espelleta sings most of the lead vocals for the verses, while blonde Birgit Freud provides harmony during the choruses. As The Sisters Of Oz, they featured on only one other album: Sarah Brightman's Dive - although it's not really clear on what songs they sing.

Princessa performs "Once In A Lifetime" on her album I Won't Forget You" (1999)

Princessa Spanish Version

Cuando anochezca
Te esperare
Quiero volverte loco esta noche
Con la luna llena
Te esperare
Hoy moriras entre mis brazos
Nunca soñaste algo igual

Let me dive in
To pools of sin
Wet black leather on my skin
Show me the floor
Lay down the law
I need to taste you more

Then I feel your sea
Raining down on me
Can this be my once in a lifetime
Hell's at heaven's door
As I need you more
You know you're my once in a lifetime

Todo tu cuerpo temblara
Pero esta vez, es realidad
Aunque el tiempo pase
Nunca, nunca lo olividaras
Sera
Solo una vez en tu vida

When you take me
And make me cry
Then I feel you satisfy
Show me the cage
It's all the rage
And lock it up

Found a part of me
That's a mystery
That will be just once in a lifetime
When the moon is high
Passion never dies
Will you want me for all a lifetime

Once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime

Giving you my soul
Letting you control
Took away a part of my lifetime
Memories of you
Left me black and blue
Now I know you're once in a lifetime

Found a part of me
That's a mystery
That will be just once in a lifetime
When the moon is high
Passion never dies
Will you want me for all a lifetime

Found a part of me
That's a mystery
That will be just once in a lifetime

When the night falls
I will wait for you
I want to drive you crazy tonight
With the full moon
I will wait for you
Today you will die in my arms
You never dreamed about something like this

All your body will tremble
But this time it will be real
Though time passes by
You will never, never forget it
It will be
Only once in your lifetime

Original Lyrics from here

Once In A Lifetime

Cuando anochezca
Te esperare
Quiero volverte loco esta noche
Con la luna llena
Te esperare
Hoy moriras entre mis brazos
Nunca soñaste algo igual

When you're near me
I close my eyes
I want to feel you by my side
When you kiss me
I close my eyes
Want you by my side

When I realise there's no telling lies
Then I know it once in a lifetime
Making love to you
Everytime it's new
You know you're my once in a lifetime

Todo tu cuerpo temblara
Pero esta vez, es realidad
Aunque el tiempo pase
Nunca, nunca lo olividaras
Sera
Solo una vez en tu vida

When you touch me
I burn inside
Cold and shiver down my spine
When you take me
So hot in love
Can't get enough

When I realise there's no telling lies
Then I know it once in a lifetime
Making love to you
Everytime it's new
You know you're my once in a lifetime

Once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime

Giving all I've got
Now you love me not
You're my lover once in a lifetime
Taking care of you
Everytime it's new
You know you're my once in a lifetime...

When you're by my side
And I want you hot
When I close my eyes then I touch the skies
When I realise there's no telling lies
Making love to you
Everytime it's new

First of May

written by Barry, Maurice, and Robin Gibb

Written and recorded y the Bee Gees and appears on their 1969 album Odessa.

Sarah first of all sang this at Christmas In Vienna, it then was a bonus track on her eden single, and Sarah sang this at her One Night In Eden concerts.

When I was small, and Christmas trees were tall,
we used to love while others used to play.
Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by,
someone else moved in from far away.

Now we are tall, and Christmas trees are small,
and you don't ask the time of day.
But you and I, our love will never die,
but guess who'll cry come first of May.

The apple tree that grew for you and me,
I watched the apples falling one by one.
And as I recall the moment of them all,
the day I kissed your cheek and you were gone.

Now we are tall, and Christmas trees are small,
and you don't ask the time of day.
But you and I, our love will never die,
but guess who'll cry come first of May.

When I was small, and Christmas trees were tall,
do do do do do do do do do ...
Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by,
someone else moved in from far away.

Bound to the earth and unable to fly ...

Where paradise falls eternity screams

Do You Wanna Be Loved

Written by:- Schwarz, Peterson, Meissner & Brightman

This song is first performed by Princessa on her 1996 Album Calling You. Sarah sings her backing vocals and is credited in the song writing.

Thought I knew what's best for me.
I took a hold of my destiny.
Ran away ... to find it.
What I didn't realize,
Just what you meant to me inside,
Now I know ... you're gone.

Chorus:
Na na na na na na na na na na na
Do you wanna be loved?
Do you wanna be loved?
Na na na na na na na na na na na
Do you wanna be loved?
Do you wanna be loved?

Love will come and time will go.
But there is something you should know.
I can't live ... without you.
Always thought I knew it all.
Your's is not the truth to call.
Anytime ... I'm yours.

Chorus -- 2x

You lost a part of me.
And now you see, I don't wanna be free.
Why does it hurt so much,
To be beloved?
Do you wanna be loved?

Chorus -- 2x

Hurry Home

written by Steve Thompson - http://www.stmedia.org

Song originally performed by the band Wavelength

http://www.stmedia.org/audio/hhsara.mp3

here you can get the full MP3 of Sarah singing this song from the composers website.

Wavelength's original version

Lying awake, thinking of you.
It helps to see the lonely nights go 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.

The night is so still, I turn out the light.
But there won't be a loving kiss good-night.
Then my imagination starts to play.
What if you decide to stay another day.

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 loneliness.

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.

Same Thing To You

written by:- unknown no details on or in CD

Cook me up french fries. Invite me for dinner.
Show who you are and I'll show you I'm a sinner.
Not in the worst way. I'll do the same thing to you.
If you want to I'll play you a song on my guitar.
Show you the words so you can follow me so far.
Wanna go further? I'll go the same way with you.

Don't get me wrong,
But I'll do all these things to you.
Then I know we'll become the best of friends.
I am sure you would like me in the end.
No matter what you wanna do,
I'd do the same thing to you.

So make me an offer I will not refuse.
Take me to the movies and read me the news.
Talk with me backwards. I'll do the same thing to you.
Show me a photograph of all of your girlfriends.
Tell me a story, a thought that never ends.
Paint me as a cartoon. I'll do the same thing to you.

So cook me up French fries. Invite me for dinner.
Show who you are and I'll show you I'm a sinner.
Not in the worst way. I'll do the same thing to you.
If want me to play you a song on my guitar,
Show you the words so you can follow me so far.
Wanna go further? I'll go the same way with you.

I'll go the same way with you.
same thing to you    --    (3x, by choir)
I'll go the same way with you.
same thing to you    --    (3x, by choir)
I'll go the same way with you.
same thing to you    --    (3x, by choir)
I'll go the same way with you.
same thing to you    --    (3x, by choir)
I'll go the same way with you.

Rain

Music: F Petersen Lyrics: F Petersen & Nicola Brightman (Sarah's sister)

Give me your dreams and answers
I know my reply There's only one chance for living The clouds' in the sky

When sunlight burns your eyes I know the children cry In pain Dawn comes up I'm gonna learn your pain And pray for rain.

We need a chance to start again Let it rain I lie awake and feel the pain Let it rain

I can't even think to reason The world has gone bad We're out on the land of Eden We blow what we have

There's only one hold back One way for bad to stay We know Only whether We can hope to get It's heavy rain

We need a chance to start again Let it rain I lie awake and feel the pain Let it rain

So many try to start again Let it rain And nothing's gonna stop this pain Let it rain Let it rain Let it rain

My young love said to me My mother won't mind And my father won't slight you For your lack of kind And he went away from me And this he did say It will not be long now Till our wedding day It will not be long now Till our wedding day It will not be long now Till our wedding day

On The Nile found only on the brown cover CD single Question of Honour, the Japanese version of Fly Re-Release album and on the ever rarer Fly 2 CD.

On The Nile sounds very much like a song from the Jungle Book at the end called My Own Home sung by Darleen Carr (sister of Charmian Carr who played Liesl in The Sound of Music) which I have included as a sound clip below.

Music: F. Peterson, Wilvonseder & Brightman

In my dreams I could be burning
Yellow with the sands of time
Through the heat I saw them shimmer
Heat of passion on my mind
Through your smile
On the Nile
Time is left for me reflecting
In the mirror of the Nile
Ooooooooooooo
Ooooooooooooo
Ooooooooooooo
Lalalalalalalala
Through your smile
On the Nile
Time is left for me reflecting
In the mirror of the Nile
I will hold you with my smile
Secret passions on the Nile

Starship Trooper - 1998 remix - solo version

Written by Calvert, Hughes

I lost my heart to a starship trooper Oh
I lost my heart to a starship trooper Oh...

Oh Doctor Strange Won't you be my lover?
You're the best thing That I've ever discovered
Flash Gordon's left me, He's gone to the stars
And evil Darth Vader he's been banished to Mars
Tell me, Captain Strange Do you feel my devotion?
Or are you like a 'droid devoid of emotion?
Encounters one and two Are not enough for me
What my body needs Is close encounter three!!

Chorus:-
I lost my heart to a star-ship trooper,
Flashing light in hyper space Fighting for the Federation
Hand in hand we'll conquer space

Listen, Captain Strange What's our destination?
The scanners seem to Indicate a small deviation
Static on the "con" It's Star Fleet Command
Requesting your position . . . it's their final demand
You're intentions are known They've found out at least
So if you're gonna take me please make it fast
Touch me, Feel me Do what you will,
I want to feel That electric thrill.

CHORUS:-
I lost my heart to a star-ship trooper,
Flashing light in hyper space Fighting for the Federation
Hand in hand we'll conquer space
