Tonight, tonight I fell in love, I want the stars above To know tonight I fell in love Tonight, I gave my heart away to love that can stay 'Cause tonight I fell in love
Oh what a wonder, this magic spell I'm under! This feeling that I feel, is it really real? My heart beats so fast, I pray that it will last 'Til the end of time

I have a dream, a song to sing To help me cope with anything If you see the wonder of a fairy tale You can take the future even if you fail I believe in angels Something good in everything I see I believe in angels When I know the time is right for me I'll cross the stream - I have a dream
I have a dream, a fantasy To help me through reality And my destination makes it worth the while Pushing through the darkness still another mile I believe in angels Something good in everything I see I believe in angels When I know the time is right for me I'll cross the stream - I have a dream I'll cross the stream - I have a dream

Por ahi viene Joselito Con los ojos brillantitos Por la calle peñon Se ha 'tomao' tres botellas De coca-cola llenas De vino de chiclana Ya tiene las ganas Y ahora solo busca un sitio Donde le dejen cantar Ponme otra copa Tu ya sabes que mañana Voy a la mar ¡Ay! Joselito ¡ay!
Vigilancia reforzada En el puente el ambiente Es en technicolor Esto era muchos grados De marea al sur De Fernando poo Ya llego la hora De la zarzamora y sube La atmosfera del bar Y en el tubo 'traqueao' El salitre le ha 'dejao' Un rumor de alta mar ¡Ay! Joselito ¡ay!
Yo soy Joselito El de la voz de oro Que de puerto en puerto Voy dejando mi cuple Siete novias tuve Mas novias que un moro Me salieron malas Y a las siete abandone ¡Ay! Joselito ¡ay!
Tonight Carmen Composer(s): Marty Robbins Performer(s): Marty Robbins; Foster & Allen; Just Two
Carmen, Carmen, Carmen
Tonight I am aching, my body is shaking Tonight Carmen's coming back home Tonight there'll be no room for tears in my bedroom Tonight Carmen's coming back home Tonight as I stand here I notice my hand here Is trembling as never before My feelings I can't hide Resistance has all died My pride will rush outside The moment she walks through the door
The lips that have kissed her That've loved her and missed her Are lips that have cursed her at night In anguish and torment I've cursed as the night went From darkness till dawn's golden light I've thought of just taking these two hands and breaking The body I'm waiting to touch I find while I'm waiting, there's no time for hating While anticipating The woman I've wanted so much
I've placed pretty flowers to brighten the hours I've put brand new sheets on the bed I'm nervous, I'm trembling, recalling, remembering The way that she tosses her head I've given much thought To the fact that I ought to Have more control over my life How can I fight it, how can I deny it There's no way to hide it The love that I have for my Wife
I have a boyfriend (Boom-sh-boom) (Boom-sh-boom) (Boom-sh-boom) Met him a week ago (Boom-sh-boom) (Boom-sh-boom) He's my forever (Boom-sh-boom) (Boom-sh-boom) (Boom-sh-boom) Last night he told me so
He's the boy that I adore Never felt like this before And I know I'll never let him go
I have a boyfriend (Boom-sh-boom) (Boom) (Whoo-eee-whoo) We'll never say goodbye (Boom-sh-boom) (Boom-sh-boom) He made a promise (Boom) (Whoo-eee-whoo) He'll never make me cry (Boom-sh-boom)
Every time we kiss goodnight Feels so good to hold him tight And I thank the stars Up in the sky
(And someday I know) oh-oh, yeah (We'll walk down the aisle) Yes, we will (so much in love) Whoa-oh-oh-oh (wearing a smile)
Every time we kiss goodnight Feels so good to hold him tight Oh-oh, I'm so glad I have a boyfriend
I have a boyfriend Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh I have a boyfriend, yeaaaaah, I do
Josáh, La Que Pinta Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Sucedió que una vez, hace tiempo hubo un militar y el ejército fue una cadena de descubrimientos No podía perderse un amanecer pues la diana era antes que la claridad y se hizo costumbre una forma distinta de ver
Sucedió que una noche llegó al universo Josáh como una aparición de figuras en el sentimiento Vino de la ciudad donde viven los magos y llegó con el alma colgada del cinto sin saber que un soldado en el pecho no tiene fusil Encantó, revolvió, disgregó los aplomos puso tiendas gitanas en todos los templos y era solo una niña jugando a persona mayor
"Josáh, la que pinta, déjate ver" decía el soldado, decía el viento y la naturaleza con lenguaje que aún se podía oir...
Sucedió que se hizo tristeza el semblante del tiempo cada día era un Nudo Gordiano sin pies ni cabeza
Las mañanas dejaron de significar en más de una ocación no se cumplió el deber cada pase era un Día de Reyes en el curso de un mes Todo era Josáh, que bailaba a la noche una orgía pagana estallando en la piel todo era Josáh, la que pinta bailando el amor
Pero el mundo da vueltas y todo regresa a su cauce ya no era soldado, y Josáh se escondió en su país El que fuera soldado volvió a carpintero a ingeniero de minas o quizás boxeador aunque nunca regresa completo el soldado a su casa Entre días y ruídos se hallan recuerdos se revuelven gavetas, se somríe al ver objetos como un tiempo que se ha repartido en papeles y fotos
"Josáh, la que pinta, déjate ver" decía el soldado, decía el viento y la naturaleza con lenguaje que aún se podía oir...

Ce soir, mon cur est plein d'espoir Ce soir, pour toi, j'avais rêvé De retenir le temps pour pouvoir te garder Ce soir, reste avec moi, ce soir Roman d'amour ou tendre histoire Tout peut commencer ce soir Ce soir!
Ce soir, tout peut changer, ce soir Ce soir, mon cur s'est pris au jeu D'un million de soleils dans la nuit de tes yeux Ce soir, ne dis pas non, ce soir L'amour est là et toi et moi Et tout commence ce soir Oh! Ce soir!
Hier, j'étais un navire Perdu sous un ciel sans étoiles Mais, j'ai retrouvé la ville Puisque tu es là ce soir
Ce soir, mon cur est plein d'espoir Ce soir, pour toi, j'avais rêvé De retenir le temps pour pouvoir te garder Ce soir, reste avec moi, ce soir Roman d'amour ou tendre histoire Tout peut commencer ce soir Oh! Ce soir!

Ik probeer je te vergeven Maar ineens alles vergeten Kan ik niet...
Die turbulente jaren Dat wij samen waren Die vergeet ik niet...
Je ging zo vaak en zocht misschien Verboden liefde maar nadien Diep in je hart...
Wist je met jezelf geen raad Maar voor de liefde is het nooit te laat...
Met jou te leven was een hel Hoe zou ik kunnen leven zonder jou... Want wat je ook doet... Nooit of nooit vind ik nog ooit Een man die met mij doet wat jij doet...
Jij gaf me niet wat ik je gaf Mijn tranen waren nooit veraf Van verdriet...
Je zei wel dat je van me hield Maar wat heeft jou toen dan toch bezield...
Met jou te leven was een hel Hoe zou ik kunnen leven zonder jou... Want wat je ook doet... Nooit of nooit vind ik nog ooit Een man die met mij doet wat jij doet...
Jij lacht om mij Ik huil om jou Jij speelt met mij Omdat ik van je hou...
Al wat je zegt Dat doet me pijn Omdat je liegt En ik je heb vertrouwd...
Ik hou van jou, hou jij van mij ? Ik vraag alleen mij te beminnen... Want wat je ook doet ... Nooit of nooit vind ik nog ooit Een man die met mij doet wat jij doet...
Ik hou van jou, hou jij van mij ? Ik vraag alleen mij te beminnen... Want wat je ook doet ... Nooit of nooit vind ik nog ooit Een man die met mij doet wat jij doet...

Tonight won't be like any night Tonight the stars up in the sky Will be shining for me and my baby tonight

Reviens dans la petite rue Où nous nous sommes connus À cinq ans ...
Reviens dans cette ville Beaucoup trop tranquille Pour tes dix-sept ans ...
Tu es parti chercher ailleurs Ce qu'on cache très longtemps Au fond du coeur ...
Nous on voulait t'imiter Mais on n'a pas osé On a flanché ...
Pendant ce temps, j'ai eu le temps De repenser à cet amour Inachevé Mais maintenant, je sais Que tu n'as jamais jamais Oublié La rue de nos premiers baisers
Les cheveux longs, le jean usé Mais la tête pleine d'idées Tu es parti...
C'est pas l'argent qui te tentait Mais chaque jour tu nous parlais De la Californie ...
Pendant ce temps, j'ai eu le temps De repenser à cet amour Inachevé Mais maintenant, je sais Que tu n'as jamais jamais Oublié La rue de nos premiers baisers
Si tu savais c'que j'ai passé De tendres nuits à me relire Tes mots fous...
Si tu savais c'que j'ai pleuré Quand j'ai appris que tu rentrais Enfin chez nous...
Mais malgré tout, j'ai paniqué À en crever de n'plus recevoir Tes bouts d'papiers Mais maintenant, je sais Que tu n'as jamais jamais Oublié La rue de nos premiers baisers
Si tu savais c'que j'ai marché Pour pas penser, pour pas douter Que l'on s'est aimé Mais maintenant, je sais Que tu n'as jamais jamais Oublié La rue de nos premiers baisers ...
Tonight Composer(s): Roy Wood Performer(s): The Move
That's the road it's over there and leading down to nowhere This is the age when you're allowed to have your own care if you will have some pride to plan your life ahead instead of waiting 'til you're old in your bed
I'll be over tonight if you say you might I'll be over tonight indeed to put you right
well I know what you wrote on your overcoat but don't want to take it too far oh I think you won't but I know that you don't you always say that you are
I'm so used to waiting that's entirely your affair child don't feel restricted by the weightless views you're given
if you will have some pride to fight and front ahead instead of saving 'til your young heart is dead
I'll be over tonight...
Never let the riches that may ever be within you
so self concerned with all the love that you have been through
if you will have some pride to plan your life ahead instead of waiting 'til you're old in your bed

À mon chagrin s'ajoutent Tous mes doutes Sur l'avenir de nous
Au coeur d'une avalanche De silence Je t'imagin' partout
Donne-moi de tes nouvelles Vite appelle J'en ai tellement besoin
Je prie Dieu et les Anges Que tu changes Que tu reviennes enfin
Je pass' des heur's,des jours, et des nuits blanches À t'espérer plus que tout Pourtant je l'avoue Attendre, attendre, attendre, attendre encore .... Ca va me rendre fou
On vivait l'un pour l'autre De tell'sorte Qu'on n'se quittait jamais
On dit que les épreuves Sont la preuve Qu'y a rien d'plus fort qu'aimer
Je pass' des heur's,des jours, et des nuits blanches À t'espérer plus que tout Pourtant je l'avoue Attendre, attendre, attendre, attendre encore .... Ca va me rendre fou
Je t'en supplie Entends ce cri Et même si tu vas refair' ta vie
Je m'en remets À ta pitié Je suis l'esclave et toi ma vie brisée
Je t'aime et je t'en veux et j'ai si mal que je pardonne tout Le coeur à genoux Attendre, attendre, attendre, attendre encore .... Ca va me rendre fou
Je t'aime et je t'en veux et j'ai si mal que je pardonne tout Le coeur à genoux Attendre, attendre, attendre, attendre encore .... Ca va me rendre fou
Attendre, attendre, attendre, attendre encore .... Ca va me rendre fou

Le vent faisait l'amour avec le sable Dans un château d'étoiles La lune promenait le long des vagues Sa flamme douce et pâle
Et nous avions le coeur à marée haute Le coeur prêt à chanter On se sentait si bien l'un contre l'autre Qu'on s'est mis à danser
On a dansé tout seuls sur cette plage Et je garde cette image... Jusqu'au lever du jour Tu danses, danses, danses, danses dans mes nuits Et danseras toujours
Il n'y avait ni piste ni musique Au bal de l'océan Mais j'entendais des pages symphoniques Dans les violons du vent
On s'est aimés nous deux sur cette plage Dans un long, très long voyage... La peine est de retour... Tu danses, danses, danses, danses dans mes nuits Et danseras toujours
Mes souvenirs Nos souvenirs sont des photos Des mots sans avenir Tu es si loin Tu est trop loin Tu ne pourras Jamais me revenir
Je t'aime et te déteste Puis je t'aime et te déteste, puis je t'aime... Toi la haine et l'amour... Tu danses, danses, danses, danses dans mes nuits Et danseras toujours
