Roses Are Blooming Composer(s): Doc Williams; Ed McCurdy Performer(s): Don Williams; and various other artists
The bright moon was shining, the night that we parted I held you and kissed you and called you my own With words sweet and tender you said that you loved me And that you'll return when the roses bloom
Roses are blooming, come back to me, darling Come back to me, darling, and never more roam Robins are singing, church bells are ringing Roses are blooming, so come back my own
The days have been long dear, the nights have been dreary I've missed you my darling since you went away But I still keep hoping that you will remember That you will remember and come back someday
Roses are blooming, come back to me, darling Come back to me, darling, and never more roam Robins are singing, church bells are ringing Roses are blooming, so come back my own
Ti Guarderò Nel Cuore ((English Version: More (Kay Winding) - 1963)) Composer(s): Nino Oliviero - Riz Ortolani First release by: Riz Ortolani - 1962 Covered by multiple other artists
Se tu mi guardi in fondo al cuor, vedrai un nome scritto con le nuvole che ombre disegnano di favola con la magia di un incantesimo
E se quel nome leggerai una voce sentirai la mia voce che ti dice "T'amo, t'amo, t'amo"
Sulle parole che si spengono cadono mille note tenere e per la tua felicità per la mia felicità questo incanto resterà
E se la mia felicità è la tua felicità questo incanto resterà!
Con Un Beso Por Fusil Composer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute
No se me ocurre otra manera de seguir en pie de guerra que cobijarme entre tus brazos practicando el cuerpo a tierra... y camuflarme con tu carne en su pasión mas incivil para hacer frente a la jauría cuando escape del redil No se me ocurre otra manera de seguir en la trinchera con en beso por fusil... No se me ocurre otra manera de seguir no sé hacia dónde... que ir tras el humo que señala el fuego que tu cuerpo esconde para encontrar la luz fugaz de algún relámpago de abril que me descubra un claroscuro una silueta algún perfil No se me ocurre otra manera de seguir en la trinchera con un beso por fusil No se me ocurre otra manera de vencer la eterna duda que someterme a la verdad finita de tu piel desnuda más poderosa que la tiranía de cualquier reptil encaramado a las basuras de su torre de marfil... No se me ocurre otra manera de seguir en la trinchera con un beso por fusil...
So here I am, alone again Not at all like I thought that it would be Guess I lost my way Seems like yesterday Somebody promised me the sunshine Somebody promised me the moon Somebody told me there'd be roses and rainbows I only hope they'll get here soon Seems I've been waiting here forever Thinking that love would come for free Someone's still waiting for those roses and rainbows I hope that someone won't be me So let go now, you're on your own It's okay to be lonely now and then Open up your eyes You are much too wise If someone promises you sunshine.... You better know there'll still be rain! If someone says he'll bring you roses and rainbows You'd better take a look again You'd better find out who you are girl Before you run to someone else instead of waiting for those roses and rainbows You'd better give them to yourself Somebody promised me the sunshine Somebody promised me the moon Somebody told me there'd be roses and rainbows And now I know they're coming soon! And now I'm ready for the sunshine And I'm as happy as can be And all my days are filled with roses and rainbows My life belongs to me! My life belongs To me!
Con Todo Y Mi Tristeza
Composer(s): Juan Gabriel
Performer(s): Raphael
and multiple other artists
¡Ay! que bonito, pero que bonito es que te quiera Y el estar de veras locamente enamorado Pero que tristeza, siento que ya no me quieras Que por otro amor tan pronto me hayas olvidado
Aunque tu no sepas nunca, nunca, nunca, ya mas de mi vida Que me estoy muriendo sin tus besos poco a poco de tristeza Que me estoy muriendo por volverte a ver mi vida Pero tu me has olvidado tanto que no te interesa
Y con todo y mi tristeza me enseñe a no olvidarte Me enseñe a vivir sin verte pero sin acostumbrarme Y ya que muero cada dia por tu ausencia que es dolor Morire con la conciencia tan tranquila por tu amor
¡Ay! pero ¡ay! que maravilloso y que final tendra mi vida Que hasta en ese momento sin querer te diga adios Como eres hoy mi vida, mañana seras mi muerte Tu vas a ser la culpable de que yo muera de amor
Rosemary Lane (Traditional) Performer(s): Bert Jansch; and various other artists
When I was in service in Rosemary Lane I won the good will of my master Amberdine Till a sailor came there, one night to lay And that was the beginning of my misery
He called for a candle to light him to bed And likewise a silk handkerchief to tie up his head To tie up his head, as sailors will do, And then said My pretty Polly, will you come too?
Now, this may be young and foolish, she thought it no harm To lie into bed, for to keep herself warm And what was done there, I will never disclose But I wish that short night had been 7 long years
Next morning this sailor so early arose And into my apron 3 guineas did throw Saying This I will give, and more I will do If youll be my Polly wherever I go
Now if its a boy, he will fight for the king And if its a girl, she will wear a gold ring She will wear a gold ring and a dress all aflame And remember my service in Rosemary Lane
When I was in service in Rosemary Lane I won the good will of my master Amberdine Till a sailor came there, one night to lay And that was the beginning of my misery
Theme For A New Love (I Saw You Only Once) Composer(s): Hank Levine Performer(s): David Jones
I saw you only once, and I knew There could be no one for me but you Yours was the face I wanted to see Wanted to touch, so tenderly You smiled and took me by surprise And you captured my heart with your eyes
The way you walk The tilt of your head The sound of your voice And the things you've siad For you've so many secrets So much mystery to everyone else But you share them with me
You're so much like a kitten That I hold in my arms When we laugh and you tease I'm taken by your charms
You're lovely and charming And loving and sweet You captivate everyone you meet Your laughter's like music You're always such fun You're all of my dreams rolled into one
Then there are times when you're moody Times when you're blue When the deepest, dark Black of night is you Yet, all of these moods Love, helped you to see and Understand what's inside of me
You're so soft to my touch And our love is so new How can I tell you how much I love you You're the raindrops that fall And refresh everything For when I am with you It is eternally spring

Quando sono solo Sogno all'orizzonte E mancan le parole
Si lo so che non c'è luce In una stanza Quando manca il sole
Se non ci sei Tu con me
Su le finestre Mostra a tutti il mio cuore Che hai acceso
Chiudi dentro me La luce che Hai incontrato per strada
Con te partirò Paesi che non ho mai Veduto e vissuto con te Adesso sì li vivrò
Con te partirò Su navi per mari Che io lo so No, no, non esistono più Con te io li vivrò
Quando sei lontana Sogno all'orizzonte E mancan le parole
E io sì lo so Che sei con me Tu mia luna tu sei qui con me
Mio sole tu sei qui con me Con me, con me
Con te partirò Paesi che non ho mai Veduto e vissuto con te Adesso sì li vivrò
Con te partirò Su navi per mari Che, io lo so No, no, non esistono più Con te io li rivivrò
Con te partirò Su navi per mari Che, io lo so No, no, non esistono più Con te io li rivivrò

Je l'attends en pleurant Mes amis dites-lui que je l'attends Je comprends maintenant Dites-lui que je m'ennuie en l'attendant

Quand la solitude me fait mal Mes amis me noient de paroles Ils parlent d'habitude, disent "C'est normal" Mais que tout ça, un jour, s'envole Je sais! Oui, je sais! Nous comment, comment? Sous mes fenêtres La vie passe mais n'efface, non, rien de nous deux Tous ces "peut-être" D'un cur en feu vers les cieux guident mes pas
Partir avec toi, attends-moi... où que tu sois Là-haut, si là-haut est l'endroit où le bon Dieu t'envoie Oui! Partir avec toi, par la force d'aimer, te retrouver Non, non, rien n'existe sans nous Et nous, c'est toi, c'est tout
J'ai tout essayé, rien ne console! Rien vraiment ne retient mes larmes Je n'ai qu'une idée, une idée folle C'est vrai! Je veux m'en aller là ou tu es Ce soir ou demain je te promets, promets, promets, promets
Partir avec toi, attends-moi... où que tu sois Là-haut, si là-haut est l'endroit où le bon Dieu t'envoie Oui! Partir avec toi, par la force d'aimer, te retrouver Non, non, rien n'existe sans nous Et nous, c'est toi, c'est tout
Oui, partir avec toi, en un dernier sommeil, je te suivrai Au bout de mes rêves, de ma vie, attends-moi, je te suis

Rose, Rose I love you with an aching heart What is your future?, now we have to part Standing on the jetty as the steamer moves away Flower of Malaya, I cannot stay
Make way, oh, make way for my Eastern Rose Men crowd in dozens everywhere she goes In her rickshaw on the street or in a cabaret "Please make way for Rose" you can hear them say
All my life I shall remember Oriental music and you in my arms Perfumed flowers in your tresses Lotus-scented breezes and swaying palms
Rose, Rose I love you with your almond eyes Fragrant and slender 'neath tropical skies I must cross the seas again and never see you more 'way back to my home on a distant shore
(All my life I shall remember) (Oriental music and you in my arms) (Perfumed flowers in your tresses) (Lotus-scented breezes and swaying palms)
Rose, Rose I leave you, my ship is in the bay Kiss me farewell now, there's nothin' to say East is East and West is West, our worlds are far apart I must leave you now but I leave my heart
Rose, Rose I love you with an aching heart What is your future?, now we have to part Standing on the jetty as the steamer moves away Flower of Malaya, I cannot stay
