A Media Luz ((English Version: Tell Me, Marianne (Victor Sylvester & His Ballroom Orch.)) Composer(s): Carlos Cesar Lenzl - Edgardo Donato - E. Lengui Performer(s): Carlos Gardel; Julio Iglesias
Corrientes tres cuatro ocho, segundo piso, ascensor No hay porteros ni vecinos, adentro cocktel de amor
Pisito que puso Maple, piano, estera y velador Un telefón que contesta, una fonola que llora Viejos tangos de mi flor y un gato de porcelana pa que No maulle el amor
Y todo a media luz, que es un brujo el amor A media luz los besos, a media luz los dos Y todo a media luz, crepúsculo interior Que suave terciopelo la media luz de amor
Juncal doce venticuatro, telefonea sin temor De tarde té con masitas, de noche tango y amor Los domingos té danzante, los lunes desolación
Hay de todo en la casita, almohadones y divanes como en botica Coco, alfombras que no hacen ruido y mesa puesta al amor...
My Little Lady Composer(s): Blakley; Hawkes; Pace; Panzeri; Pilat Performer(s): The Tremeloes
I think about my baby a perfect little lady I think about her shiny golden hair I've never been a dreamer but every time I see her I start to float away into the air Oh, oh, my little lady
You can make the sun and moon begin to shine and if you could have your way every day would be fine It's no wonder for as long as I may live I will give you all the love I am able to give
I wake up in the morning without a single warning before I finish yawning she is there I think about my baby a perfect little lady I think about her shiny golden hair Oh, oh, my little lady
You can make the sun and moon begin to shine and if you could have your way every day would be fine It's no wonder for as long as I may live I will give you all the love I am able to give
You can make the sun and moon begin to shine and if you could have your way every day would be fine It's no wonder for as long as I may live I will give you all the love I am able to give
La la la la la ...
You can make the sun and moon begin to shine and if you could have your way every day would be fine It's no wonder for as long as I may live I will give you all the love I am able to give
My Little Inspiration French Title: Ma Petite Muse Composer(s): Jeanine Deckers Performer(s): Jeanine Deckers (aka The Singing Nun)
My little inspiration is You oh Lord Your happiness melts in my heart My little inspiration is You oh Lord You fill me with happiness The meadows all offer me a thousand flowers All the Clairs de Lunes have heart shaped lips The city streets all smile at the sun All of man's joys are the color of heaven The stars all wink their eyes at me The rainy days have all stopped mourning All the evenings fall asleep to the lullaby of the birches All the mornings drink of Your May wine

Chorus
The sun's got to shine on my guitar someday
Still one thing that you can do Fall down on your knees and pray I know the Lord's gonna answer you Don't do it tomorrow, do it today

Tell Me What You See In Me Composer(s): Dave Cousins Performer(s): Sandy Denny & The Strawbs
My ship sails in On a cloud of broken promises It's just not true Not a single word she says Time will tell Whether I can change my ways It might take years It might even take always
Tell me what you see in me And I'll tell you what I see in you
Your picture melts Before my tired eyes And all it leaves Is just a trace of paradise You'll change again That's what I've been told But don't take long Or I might get too old
Take it easy But take it slow For who knows which way next That wind will blow Time goes by Just as quickly as I want it to And I'll make out Like I never knew
My Little Girl Composer(s): Sam M. Lewis; William Dillon; Albert Von Tilzer
I write these lines to tell you that I'm sorry I Left home because I'm all alone, why did you let me roam Some one put the jinx on me, I'm up against it strong I'm out of work and so I wrote a song the first verse dear is very sweet, because it speaks of you I'm sending you the chorus, read it through
The second verse is not complete, I cannot rhyme the part That goes with aching heart, but I was never smart you know that the chorus is the part that must be heard and now I've got a job to rhyme that word now if this song should make a hit, I'll marry you in June and if it don't there'll be no honeymoon
My little girl you know I love you and I long for you each day my little girl I'm dreaming of you though you're many miles away I see the lane down in wildwood where you promised to be true my little girl I know you're waiting and I'm coming back to you

My Little Angel Composer(s): George Young; Harry Vanda Performer(s): William Shakespeare (aka John Cave)
It was on a cold December afternoon Doesn't seem that long ago I was sitting on my feet by my old fireplace When in walked my little girl home from school And I could see that something was wrong By the tears that were rolling down her face
And she said Daddy, Daddy at school today Somebody told me a lie And after hearin' what she had heard I told her not to cry It hurt to see her cry
Because she's my, my little angel My little angel, my little angel when she smiles Oh yes, she's my, my little angel My little angel, and I don't ever wanna see her cry
What she heard was that angel's didn't really exist That they were just a part of fables, fairytales, any ol' how Of course there are angels I said Everybody has an angel that takes care of them In fact I know there's a real live angel right now
And she said Daddy, Daddy please tell me where And tell me how do you know And I said, easy, if you listen close It's not too far to go And this is how I know
Because you're my, my little angel My little angel, my little angel when you smile Oh yes, you're my, my little angel My little angel, and I don't ever wanna see you cry
Now I miss her dearly since she left that day But I know she is near me every hour, every day Because she's, because she's my, my little angel My little angel, my little angel, yes she's mine
Ah, she's so fine, my little angel, my little angel And I know that she's with me all the time With me all the time, my little angel My little angel, my, my little angel
