Te Quiero Dijiste ((English Version: Magic Is The Moonlight (Cliff Richard) - 1965)) Composer(s): María Grever First release by: Cliff Richard and The Shadows Covered by multiple other artists
Te quiero, dijiste tomando mis manos entre tus manitas de blanco marfil Y sentí en mi pecho un fuerte latido después un suspiro y luego el chasquido de un beso febril
Muñequita linda de cabellos de oro de dientes de perla, labios de rubí Dime si me quieres cómo yo te quiero si de mí te acuerdas como yo de ti
Y a veces escucho un eco divino que envuelto en la brisa parece decir Sí te quiero mucho, mucho, mucho, mucho tanto como entonces siempre hasta morir
My Canary Has Circles Under His Eyes
Composer(s): Ted Kohler; Eddie Pola; Jack Golden
Performer(s): Debroy Somers & His Orch. - 1930
and multiple other artists
Mister Press Man, here's some news
You can print it if you choose
Just to show that times have changed a lot
Though it may sound strange to you
It is absolutely true
You can believe it.......or not
Since making whoopee became all the rage
It's even got into the old birdcage
My canary has circles under his eyes
He used to whistle 'The Prisoner's Song'
Now he does snake-hips the whole day long
My canary has circles under his eyes
His only pals are the Meadow Lark
And just a tiny sparrow
But I am afraid when he's in the park
He leaves the straight and narrow
I raised this bird in a manner so strict
Now I feel certain I'm being tricked
My canary has circles under his eyes
His only pals are the Meadow Lark
And just a tiny sparrow
But I am afraid when he's in the park
He leaves the straight and narrow
I raised this bird in a manner so strict
Now I feel certain I'm being tricked
My canary has circles under his eyes
My canary has circles under his eyes
Good Christian Soldier Composer(s): Bobby Bare; Billy Joe Shaver Performer(s): Kris Kristofferson; Bobby Bare
Not so long ago in Oklahoma The son of an Okie preacher knelt to pray He said Lord I wanna be a Christian soldier just like you And fight to build a new and better day
Now many years and miles from Oklahoma That same young Okie boy still kneels to pray But he don't pray to be no Christian soldier anymore He just prays to make it through another day
Cause it's hard to be a Christian soldier when you tote a gun And it hurts to have to watch a grown man cry But we're playin' cards writin' home havin' lots of fun Telling jokes and learning how to die
Now the things I've come to know seem so confusin' It's gettin' hard to tell what's wrong from right I can't seperate the winners from the losers anymore And I'm thinking of just giving up the fight
Cause it's hard to be a Christian soldier when you tote a gun And it hurts to have to watch a grown man cry But we're playin' cards writin' home ain't we hadn't fun Turning on and learning how to die
My Cairo Maid Composer(s): Bud De Sylva; G. Foster; Chris Schonberg
Dreaming, I am always dreaming When the stars are gleaming, of my Cairo maid I believe she wants me For her mem'ry haunts me I sit and pine till skies are graying, saying
Smiling, I can see her smiling in her way beguiling, as the shadows fall For the moon above her Tells her that I love her And will return o'er desert, swinging, singing
I know a maid in Cairo In dreamy Cairo, beside the Nile I know she's yearning, her heart is burning for my returning so, for a while, I'll travel upon my camel o'er scorching gravel unto my shrine Which means, that I'll go to dreamy Cairo and make this Cairo maiden mine
Good Captain Clack Composer(s): Gary Brooker; Keith Reid Performer(s): Procol Harum
Still scowling black good Captain Clack must eat his humble pie His bed is made the colours fade his eyes once wet are dry
The naked muse who sits and chews tobacco off a tree removes his shoes gives way to booze and searches endlessly
See the naked jumberlack sip his aphrodisiac Cotton-picking farmers three Though I lost my weather vane and of sense I have one grain I'm content sipping lemon tea
"Ah, pero no: la vida es una cosa tan llena de salud maravillosa es un regalo de placer tan fiero es un juego tan útil, tan demente que ya he vuelto a creer absurdamente porque dijiste nada más: te quiero" -Carilda Oliver Labra-
Te quiero así, de pronto así de tonto... pero te quiero Te quiero así de claro así de raro... pero te quiero Te quiero así de burdo así de absurdo... pero te quiero Pero esta noche tristeza obliga más que a la amante quiero a la amiga Más que tu pan, quiero tu miga
Good Bye, Rose Composer(s): Herbet Ingraham; Addison Burkhart
Once a bird loved a rose Chirp'd despondently "Oh! My love From above Your fading blush I see But I cannot linger here Winter's blasts are near Lovely flower, from your bower I must fly I fear Oh, Dear!
With the Springtime's sunny garb Came the love sick bird To the tree anxiously But still no welcome heard For the rose sighed in vain Cried till winter's snows Half in pity Froze the pretty Broken hearted rose he chose
Good bye Rose, the Autumn leaves are falling Winter blows her trumpets from the sky When the snows shall melt at Springtime's calling We will meet again Some day so good bye Rose
Pour te prouver mon amour que veux-tu que je te donne? Je te donnerai mes jours chaque instant de ma personne Je te donnerai mes jours mes printemps et mes automnes mon cur, légèrement cur lourd pour te prouver mon amour
Pour te prouver, mon ami pour te prouver que je t'aime je te donnerai mes nuits chaque instant de mes poèmes Je te donnerai mes nuits et le bonheur pour étrennes pour te prouver, mon ami que je t'aime à la folie
Pour te prouver ma folie que veux-tu que je te donne? Je te donnerai ma vie sans regret je l'abandonne Je te donnerai ma vie avec une joie sans bornes si vraiment ça te suffit à te prouver ma folie
Quand je t'aurai tout donné quand j'aurai vidé mes poches je pourrai enfin t'aimer d'un amour sans anicroches Nous pourrons nous adorer mais ton appétit féroce n'aura plus rien à croquer quand je t'aurai tout donné
Pour te prouver mon amour là vraiment il y a maldonne J'ai donné mes nuits, mes jours et je n'ai plus rien en somme Tu m'as pris mes jours, mes nuits mon cur, mon corps sans vergogne Tu m'as pris jusqu'à l'envie de te prouver mon amour de te prouver mon amour
Self Portrait Composer(s): Richard Blackmore; Ronald Padavona First release by: Rainbow - 1975
Paint me a picture and hang it on the wall Cover it darkly, the lines must start to crawl Down, down, down Spin me around and around Draw me away to the night from the day Leave not a trace to be found Down, down
Nothing is real but the way that I feel And I feel like going down, down, down, down Down, down, down, down, down
Paint me a picture of eyes that never see With flashes of lightning that burn for only me
Hey hey hey There's only the devil to pay I'm ready to go Pull me down from below Give me a place I can lay
Hey hey Nothing is real but the way that I feel I feel like going down, down, down, down Down, down, down, down
Hey hey Nothing is real but the way that I feel And I feel like going down Down, down
Nothing is real but the way that I feel And I feel like going down, down, down, down Down, down, down, down Down, down, down, down Down

Good As I Was To You Composer(s): Billy Livsey; Don Schlitz Performer(s): Lorrie Morgan; Mindy McCready; Sister Valentina
She drove up the restaurant Where they used to dine He was sitting at the table With someone new this time She walked up right beside him Her face did not turn red She looked at him so calmly And this is what she said
Good as I was to you Is this the thanks I get? Are all the years we shared So easy to forget? Does this mean that you've won? Are you finally having fun? Is she your dream come true? Oh, she sure looks good But she won't ever be As good as I was to you
The room got awfully quiet And everybody stared Finally the waiter said, "Should I bring another chair" She said, "No, I was just leaving" But as she walked out the door She said, "Honey, you can have him I don't want him anymore"
Good as I was to you Is this the thanks I get? Are all the years we shared So easy to forget? Is this the way it's done? Looking out for number one? Did you think it through? She sure looks good But she won't ever be Good as I was to you
does this mean that you've won? Are you finally having fun? Is she your dream come true? Oh, she sure looks good But she won't ever be As good as I was to you
