Please don’t go away
Written & composed by Johanna Saint-Pierre
You say you want your freedom
It’s too much for you a kingdom
You say you should go away
And you think that you can’t stay
Don’t you want to keep your woman?
I feel my heart had been stolen
I dream about a long story
How can I trust you finally?
This is not your kind of life
But I want to be your wife
Please don’t go away (4)
Hearing the sound of my city
Especially when I’m not sleepy
I’m not going to beg you
But we feel better together
I’m just telling the truth
Believe me it’s for ever
Why do you always want to run?
Far away and have some fun
This is not your kind of life
But I want to be your wife
Please don’t go away (4)
It’s not so difficult
I promise it won’t hurt
Don’t hesitate
Let’s celebrate
Today
Please don’t go away (4)

Emily Joe
Written & composed by Johanna Saint-Pierre
I was playing with Becky
I remember it was early
The night before I'd seen a movie
About kids who freed animals
I told her the whole story
And even though it was silly
We decided to do the same
With the zoo of our city
Before leaving we had candies
That smelled of peach and strawberries
I was afraid of falling in the hole
Of escaping through the window
I wanted to go now
Hey! No sliding on the roof
Young girl, you don't have a broom
Said Becky from my bedroom
Emily Joe
This is my name
You can't take my pain
You can't read my brain
Emily Joe
This is my name
It's not a blame
Let me explain
We had just arrived to the zoo
Ready to start our Freedom Tour
But the sky was all red and blue
There was no time to unlock doors
My dad was there waiting for us
With a policeman... What a fuss!
"Hey, no more messing around
Come, I'll take you to the candy store."

SHOW ME THE WAY
Written & composed by Johanna Saint-Pierre
I was sitting alone
Lost in my home
I was feeling sad
Was certainly mad
Switch on the TV
Listen to the music
Bake a cherry pie
Play with our child
Show me the way
Somebody saw him
Kissing her somewhere
She was a very good friend
But she took my man
Drove on the highway
Willing to go astray
Feeling betrayed
What can I say
Show me the way
I asked my man
To choose
Between her and me
But he has to promise
Never to see her again
No more pain
Finally he chose me
I'm so happy
Show me the way

The storm
Written & composed by Johanna Saint-Pierre
She was seventeen
In 1964
She was promised to him
To her sailor
They talked about the ocean
About the devotion
She always asked him for
And the storm
Took the man of the sea
And the storm
Broke her all their dreams
And the storm
Took the man of the sea
And the storm
Didn’t feel sorry
So she said goodbye
To a life of love
They looked for him
Day after day
Now the sun is high
Nothing above the waves
She continues to pray
And the storm
Took the man of the sea
And the storm
Broke her all their dreams
And the storm
Took the man of the sea
And the storm
Didn’t feel sorry
She is dizzy
Cries like a fury
And the storm
Took the man of the sea
And the storm
Broke her all their dreams
And the storm
Took the man of the sea
And the storm
Didn’t feel sorry

Alice
Written by Johanna Saint-Pierre and MKL
Composed by Johanna Saint-Pierre
Alice’s husband’s away
Time to play
She laces up her high hell boots
Rush to Jacky’s bar
Switch your personality
With your sexuality
Alice makes a slide
Fell to the dark side
Searching within herself
Looking at someone else
She should be scared
Pinned to the rainbow wall
Feels like a butterfly
Now she’s high
Switch your personality
With your sexuality
Alice looses her head
Looking at the stars
Button up her blouse
Off to bed

Walking dolls
Written & composed by Johanna Saint-Pierre
Walking dolls (bis)
they never turn around
But they adore this merry-go-round
Do you think they are your toy boys?
Don't be such a kill joy
They're coming to play with you
And only when the girls want it
Only After that ,It will be a hit
Walking dolls (bis)
Going hand in hand with all the men
Going to conquer the world
Do You think they'll loose their soul ?
Can't you feel how strong they are
everybody plays a role
Freedom is for every one
Walking dolls (bis)

Childhood friend
Written & composed by Johanna Saint-Pierre
I’d love to see her again
Sometimes I don’t understand
For me it was wonderland
She was living next door
We used to play at the store
But we don’t go anymore
We were growing up
No more birthday parties
Witch were prepared by mummy
Childhood friend (4)
We gave up fairy tales
And preferred e-mails
We were looking like hell
While we prepared cupcakes
We dreamed of escape
And tried to open gates
My feeling were hurt
She fell in love the first
And disappeared like a bird
Childhood friend (4)

Five Young Girls
Written by Johanna Saint-Pierre
Composed by Johanna Saint-Pierre & Christian Héas
1 , 2 , 3
It’s the end of school
They are free
And Cathy talked to me
She was sorry
Easy
They gave fever
To her old teacher
A believer
He was a preacher
She brushed her hair
Bad girl
Five young Girls ( 4 )
These teenagers
Last year
Didn’t know each other
But now they’re closer
It’s for ever
It’s better
This summer
They are together
Dreaming of a French lover
And they swirl
With their pearls
Five young girls (4)

My Favorite
Written & composed by Johanna Saint-Pierre
You're my favorite (bis)
Everyday I think of you
My little star
This is who you are
You're my greatest love
For ever
My sugar
Don't go too far
You're my special girl
For ever and ever
When your eyes sparkle in the sky
I can see if you're telling a lie
Oh Darling, darling
I love when you swing
Oh darling, darling
I know you will be on the ring
You're my favorite
Everyday I think of you ( bis)
Your carmine pink lips
Move like petals
Like angels, like angels
You're my favorite (bis)
Everyday I think of you

Let me know
(Music by Johanna Saint-Pierre & Christian Héas
Lyrics by Johanna Saint-pierre )
Give me the truth
Let me know
.
Is it a shame to be afraid?
That your mouth stay closed
Here in my arms
Don’t go anywhere
Give me the truth
Let me know (bis)
Saving your love for ever
Don’t care to tell us
Your soul is free
Life is playing with us sometimes
Give me the truth
Let me know
Give me the truth
Slowly and slowly
Show me the light
Without shadows
Stop crying
Don’t blame yourself
Give me the truth
Let me know (bis)

Wake up
Written & composed by Johanna Saint-Pierre
It is so cold this winter
I’m living with my sister
We look like each other
We are four in the family
She is younger than me
And falls in love
Falls in love
Her boyfriend tries to whisper
That it’s time for him to prefer
Another girl
She falls to the ground
I cry and look around
So I said to her
Wake up
My mother was french and never
She has talked about my father
Mummy was so strong
I told my sister
That it was the wrong boy
She didn’t enjoy
Didn’t enjoy
Wake up
Don’t let you go
She was drinking in her bed
A coffee with sugar cane
Supplicates to Mary Jane
To call this boy again
It’s a dangerous game
Out of your brain ( bis)
Wake up
