Te Busco Composer(s): Victor, Victor Performer(s): Celia Cruz; Ana de la Reguera
Al cielo una mirada largaa buscando un poco de mi vida mis estrellas no responden para alumbrarme hacia tu risa
Olas que esfuman de mis ojos a una legion de tus recuerdos me roban formas de tu rostro dejando arena en el silencio
Te busco perdido entre suenos el ruido de la gente envuelvelo en un velo te busco volando en el cielo el viento te ha llevando como un panuelo viejo y no hago mas que rebuscar paisajes conocidos en lugares tan extranos,que no puedo dar contigo
En cualquier huella te persigo (voy tras de ti) en una sombra te dibujo (al recordar) huellas y sombras que se pierden (de la soledad) la suerte no vino conmigo
My Baby Must Be A Magician Composer(s): Smokey Robinson Performer(s): The Marvelettes
You are under my power It is the power of love
Eyes that hypnotize And all it takes is just once glance Just one look at him Puts me in a lover's trance
Now listen No rabbits in his hand No pigeons up his sleeve But you better believe When I prove he can do so much My baby must be a magician 'cause he's sure got the magic touch
Oh my morale was low Then he appeared just like a genie His love has the power He's my private great Houdini
No reading decks of cards No cords that disappear No special gear Like Alladin's lamp and such But my baby must be a magician 'cause he's sure got the magic touch
Whenever I'm feeling bad My baby simply kisses me And then Presto, Chango, Alakazam I'm alright again oh yes I am Yes I am alright
No mystic crystal ball No long black flowing cape But I can't escape From his tender loving touch Oh my baby must be a magician 'cause he's sure got the magic touch Say my baby must be a magician 'cause he's sure got the magic touch
Gone Dead Train Composer(s): Jack Nitzsche; Russ Titelman Performer(s): Nazareth; and various other artists
It's a gone dead train Yes, it's a gone dead train
My engine was pumpin' steam And I was grindin' at you hard and fast Burnin' down the rails, tryin' to heat the way Haulin' ass and ridin' up the track And I laughed at the conductor who was tellin' me my coal It would never last
But then the fire in my boiler Up and quit before I came Ain't no empty cellar Like a gone dead train
Once was at a time when I could Mama shave 'em dry And raise a fever ice-down chill Waitin' at the station With a heavy loaded sack Savin' up and holdin' just to spill Shootin' my supply through my demon's eye Instead of holdin' my time, I hope I will
But then the fire in my boiler Up and quit before I came There ain't no empty cellar Needs a gone dead train
Yes it's a gone dead train I'm gonna teach it to learn now, now It's a gone dead train Yes it's a gone dead train I'm gonna teach it to learn now, now It's a gone dead train Gonna teach it, gonna teach it to learn
There ain't no easy day When your daily run's a downhill pull And there ain't no easy way Wishin' for some jelly roll There ain't no switch been made To make your juicy lemon find A spring to run a dry well full
But then the fire in my boiler Up and quit before I came Ain't no empty cellar Needs a gone dead train
Yes it's a gone dead train I'm gonna teach it to learn You know it's a gone dead train Gonna teach it, gonna teach it to burn It's a gone dead train It's a gone dead train, you gotta learn It's a gone dead train Gonna teach it, gonna teach it, gonna teach it to burn
Dime porqué hoy te apratas de mí dime porqué tú me tratas así dime si ya se acabó aquel amor que aquella vez me juraste tener dime si es que hay otro amante a quién quieras más que a mí
Si sabes que te quiero con toda mi alma que tuyo es mi cariño que mi vida es para tí, mi bien Porqué me martirizas, negándose tus besos devuélveme la calma que un día le robaste a mi fiel corazón
My Baby Loves Lovin' Composer(s): Roger Cook; Roger Greenaway Originally performed by: White Plains Covered by various other artists
My baby loves love My baby loves lovin' She's got what it takes And she know how to use it
My baby loves love My baby loves lovin' She's got what it takes And she know how to use it
I was lonely once in this great big world
Just a nowhere man without his girl
When she came my way
She smiled at me as if to say
My baby loves love
My baby loves lovin'
She's got what it takes
And she know how to use it
My baby loves love
My baby loves lovin'
She's got what it takes
And she know how to use it
She's the only one makes me feel so good
Believing in my lovin' so I'm all gone good
All my sorrows and fears seem to fly away
She looks at me as if to say
My baby loves love
My baby loves lovin'
She's got what it takes
And she know how to use it
For me
No more lonely nights waiting for the phone to ring
No more lonely days my baby's taken care of everything
I'm telling you people
My baby loves love
My baby loves lovin'
She's got what it takes
And she know how to use it
My baby loves love
My baby loves lovin'
She's got what it takes
And she know how to use it
She's the only one makes me feel so good
Believing in my lovin'
All my sorrows and fears seem to fly away
She looks at me as if to say
My baby loves love
My baby loves lovin'
She's got what it takes
And she know how to use it...
Gone At Last Composer(s): Paul Simon Performer(s): Paul Simon; and various other artists
The night was black, the roads were icy Snow was fallin', drifts were high And I was weary, from my driving And I stopped to rest for a while I sat down at a truck stop I was thinking about my past I've had a long streak of bad luck But I'm praying it's gone at last
Gone, gone at last, gone at last Gone at last, gone at last I had a long streak of that bad luck But I'm prayin' it's gone at last 0o, oo, oo, oo, oo
I ain't dumb I kicked around some I don't fall too easily But that boy looked so dejected He just grabbed my sympathy Sweet little soul now, what's your problem? Tell me why you're so downcast I've had a long streak of bad luck But I'm praying it's gone at last
Gone, gone at last, gone at last Gone at last, gone at last I had a long streak of that bad luck But I'm prayin' it's gone at last 0o, oo, oo, oo, oo
Once in a while from out of nowhere When you don't expect it, and you're unprepared Somebody will come and lift you higher And your burdens will be shared Yes I do believe, if I hadn't met you I might still be sinking fast I've had a long streak of bad luck But I'm praying it's gone at last
Gone, gone, gone at last Gone at last, gone at last I had a long streak of that bad luck But I'm prayin' it's gone at last Gone, gone, gone gone gone gone Gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone I had a long streak of that bad luck But I'm prayin' it's gone at last
Tu Me Quittes English Title: My Baby Left Me Composer(s): R. Bernet; Arthur Crudup Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday (Originally performed by: Arthur Crudup)
Ce soir, tu me quittes, pourtant, dans mon coeur Je n'ai pas de peine, je n'ai pas de peur
Si tu me quittes, si tu me quittes Entre nous, ce n'était qu'un jeu J'en suis bien heureux
Tout seul à ma fenêtre, oui, je te vois partir Et mon coeur ne regrette pas un souvenir
Si tu me quittes, si tu me quittes Entre nous, ce n'était qu'un jeu J'en suis bien heureux
De ces promesses vaines que tu me faisais De les entendre, je peux bien m'en passer
Si tu me quittes, si tu me quittes Entre nous, ce n'était qu'un jeu J'en suis bien heureux
Tout seul à ma fenêtre, oui, je te vois partir Et mon coeur ne regrette pas un souvenir
Si tu me quittes, si tu me quittes Entre nous, ce n'était qu'un jeu J'en suis bien heureux
Entre nous, ce n'était qu'un jeu J'en suis bien heureux
Gone Again Composer(s): Jesse Oris Farrow Performer(s): Quicksilver Messenger Service
You ask me why my mind goes to wanderin' And how can I be so many people in the meantime I try to tell you, but words can't find my way All I can tell you is, believe me, I really understand It goes round and round after round, I'm gone again My mind gets lonely and my heart starts of ramblin' With my sweet life, my crazy heart starts to gamblin' The saddest of winds blow in my mind, stealing my time, o no, there I go again I go round and round after round, I'm gone again Some people tell me I think they hold on forever I don't know, I don't know, I don't know if I could ever hold on forever Lettin' go, lettin' go feels so groovy now, oo feels so groovy now Sweet summer falls on my mind like the dawning I watch the witches casting spells in the morning Sing the stranger, the brewing, the sweet of the brew To know what you're doing is so hard to do It goes round and round and around, I'm gone again Something tells me that maybe I can maintain forever I don't know, I don't know, I don't know if I could ever hold on forever Lettin' go, lettin' go feels so groovy now, oo feels so groovy now I see a lady, my crazy heart starts to question Can't we lay by here a while and love this one? Then my sweet life comes dancing by, takes me by the hand The sweetest romancing to the stranger will never never end And I go with her, round and round and around, I'm gone again

Te Amaré Composer(s): Miguel Bose - Juan Calderon Performer(s): Miguel Bosé
Con la paz de las montantildeas te amare Con locura y equilibrio te amare Con la rabia de mis años Como me ensentildeaste a hacer Con un grito en carne viva, te amare
En secreto y en silencio te amare Arriesgando en lo prohibido, te amare En lo falso y en lo cierto Con el corazon abierto Por ser algo no perfecto, te amare
Te amare, te amare Como no esta permitido Te amare, te amare Como nunca se ha sabido Porque asi lo he decidido Te amare...
Por ponerte algun ejemplo te dire Que aunque tengas manos frias te amare Con tu mala ortografia Y tu no saber perder Con defectos y manias, te amare
Te amare, te amare Porque fuiste algo importante Te amare, te amare Cuando ya no estes presente Seguiras siendo costumbre y te amare...
Al caer de cada noche esperare A que seas luna llena y te amare Y aunque queden pocos restos En señal de lo que fue Seguiras cerca y muy dentro, te amare
Te amare, te amare A golpe de recuerdo Te amare, te amare Hasta el ultimo momento A pesar de todo, siempre te amare...
Golondrinas De Metal Performer(s): Fernando Ubiergo
Hace mucho tiempo te quería perdón por cercar tu cuerpo por venderlo a un buen postor Por tomar tus frutos sin dar gracias a Dios Por las huellas sin razón
Tu cuerpo era verde, tu cuerpo era azul Hoy tu piel está tallada en asfalto gris Selvas de cemento que el cielo quieren tocar de más alto caerán
Madre Tierra no debes llorar porque la Humanidad pronto cambiará Madre Tierra no debes temblar porque la humanidad calor te dará
Madre hoy te vuelan golondrinas de metal aves que no cantan y que saben pelear Hasta ,la cigüeña ha dejado de volar Nadie la quiere esperar
Madre hoy el tiempo se ha escapado del reloj y una paloma va volando hacia el sol En sus alas lleva nostalgias del calor que en la tierra no encontró
Madre Tierra no debes llorar porque la Humanidad pronto cambiará Madre Tierra no debes temblar porque la humanidad calor te dará
Well, my babe, don't stand no kissin', my babe Oh yeah, she don't stand no kissin', my babe Well, my baby don't stand no kissin' 'cept when I'm the one she's kissin', my babe, true little baby, my babe

Golondrinas Composer(s): Carlos Gardel; Alfredo LePera Performer(s): Carlos Gardel
Golondrinas de un solo verano con ansias constantes de cielo lejano alma criolla, errante y viajera querer detenerla es una quimera Golondrina con fiebre en las alas peregrina, borracha de emoción siempre sueña con otros caminos la brújula loca de tu corazón
Criollita de mi pueblo pebeta de mi barrio la golondrina un día su vuelo detendrá no habrá nube en sus ojos de vagas lejanías y en sus brazos amantes su nido construirá Su anhelo de distancia se aquietará en su boca con la dulce fragancia de su viejo querer Criollita de mi pueblo pebeta de mi barrio con las alas plegadas también yo he de volver
En tus rutas que cruzan los mares florece una estela azul de cantares y al conjuro de nuevos paisajes suena intensamente tu claro cordaje En tu eterno sembrar de armonías tierras lejanas te vieron pasar otras lunas siguieron tu huella tu solo destino es siempre volar

My Arms Stay Open All Night Composer(s): Paul Overstreet; Don Schlitz Performer(s): Tanya Tucker
I know you like the night-life, the parties and the fun You like to hang around until the last song has been sung So I have made arrangements and I wanted you to know When all the laughter's ended, there's still somewhere you can go
My arms stay open all night From sundown 'til the morning light Hopin' you can find where you belong I leave the lights on My heart is never closed You're the only love it knows The one dream I have is to hold you tight My arms stay open all night
Please don't think I'm crazy, I haven't lost my mind But when it comes to lovin' you, I can always find the time So if it's after midnight, or just before the break of day Anytime you need me, it'll never be too late
'Cos my arms stay open all night From sundown 'til the morning light Hopin' you can find where you belong I leave the lights on My heart is never closed You're the only love it knows The one dream I have is to hold you tight My arms stay open all night
When all your so-called friends go home You don't ever have to be alone
'Cos my arms stay open all night From sundown 'til the morning light Hopin' you can find where you belong I leave the lights on My heart is never closed You're the only love it knows The one dream I have is to hold you tight My arms stay open all night
