Tragedy Composer(s): Barry Gibb - Robin Gibb - Maurice Gibb First release: Bee Gees - 1979 Covered by multiple other artists
Here I lie in a lost and lonely part of town Held in time In a world of tears I slowly drown Goin' home I just can't make it all alone I really should be holding you Holding you Loving you loving you
Tragedy When the feeling's gone and you can't go on It's tragedy When the morning cries and you don't know why It's hard to bear With no-one to love you you're goin' nowhere Tragedy When you lose control and you got no soul It's tragedy When the morning cries and you don't know why It's hard to bear With no-one beside you you're goin' nowhere When the feeling's gone and you can't go on
Night and day there's a burning down inside of me Burning love With a yearning that won't let me be Down I go and I just can't take it all alone I really should be holding you Holding you Loving you loving
Tragedy When the feeling's gone and you can't go on It's tragedy When the morning cries and you don't know why It's hard to bear With no-one to love you you're goin' nowhere Tragedy When you lose control and you got no soul It's tragedy When the morning cries and you don't know why It's hard to bear With no-one beside you you're goin' nowhere
Just Out Of Reach (Of My Two Open Arms) Composer(s): Virgil F. Stewart Performer(s): Patsy Cline; and various other artists
Love that runs away from me Dreams that just won't let me be Blues that keep on both'rin' me Chains that just won't set me free Too far away from you and all your charms Just out of reach of my two open arms
Each night in dreams I see your face Mem'ries time cannot erase Then I awake and find you've gone I'm so blue, I'm all alone So far away from lips so sweet and warm Just out of reach of my two open arms
(That lonesome feeling all the time) (Knowing you cannot be mine) Dreams that hurt me in my sleep Vows that we could never keep Too far away from lips so sweet and warm Just out of reach of my two open arms
Y te digo que desde adentro yo me puedo mover hice un agujero en una inmensa pared prendí la radio y escuche y escuche 200 chicos mueren hoy sin su AZT Dime Dios: Hay stop? donde estés dímelo si hablábamos de luz del trafico por Katmandu
No todo el mundo va a dejarse caer no todo el mundo va a arrastrarse a tus pies lo que me falta no es la falta de fe tendrías que pensarlo seriamente esta vez ademan Art Deco muéstrame quémalo si hablábamos de luz debajo de la Cruz del Sur
No tengo prisa no hay a donde llegar este milagro es de un perfecto cristal sabiduría pop me lo hizo entender que siempre fue lo mismo el mono y Citizen Kane yo también perdí quimeras pero me hice buen voyeur
Y te digo que desde adentro nos podemos mover hace un agujero en una inmensa pared después sácate poco a poco la piel la sangre es para siempre nada puedes hacer además, vos y yo ámame por favor si amábamos la luz debajo de la Cruz del Sur
Siempre mas, never stop te ofrecí mi corazón si hablábamos de luz del trafico por Katmandu

Just One Smile Composer(s): Randy Newman Performer(s): Gene Pitney; and various other artists
Can't I cry a little bit? There's nobody to notice it Can't I cry if I want to? No-one cares

Just one smile means forgiving Just one kiss, the hurt's all gone Just one smile to make my life worth living A little dream to build my world upon
How I wish I could say All the things I want to say If some way, you could see what's in my heart Oh, baby
I don't ask for much A look, a smile, a touch Try to forget Lord knows, I'm trying It's so hard to forget When your whole world you know is dying
Just one smile means forgiving Just one kiss, the hurt's all gone Just one smile to make my life worth living A little dream to build my world upon
Just one smile please forgiving Just one kiss, hurt's all gone Just one smile to make my life worth living A little dream to build my world upon Just one smile

Traffic vertu J'aime ou je tue Magique exclu Hors de ma vue Je t'aime encore J'envoie d'abord Le cri des villes Sur du vinyle
Taxi driver Nud de vipères Flic solitaire Tombé par terre Amour porno Chacun sa peau Je vends du spleen Tu vends du jean
Lentement je vois Cet univers-là Glisser vers le froid Le compte à rebours Dans l'air nucléaire Les derniers rebelles Brûlent sous les lasers Du manque d'amour
Que veux-tu que je sois Dans cette société-là? Un ange ou un cobra Un tueur ou un rat? Où veux-tu que je vive Dans la radioactive? Comment veux-tu que je meure D'un bel accord mineur?
Plastic de choc Crédit ou cash Plus on se cache Plus on décroche Je suis accroc Chez les dingos Milliards de flash Qui jouent au squash
Regarde-toi Regarde-moi On n'se voit plus On est perdus Dans le vacarme Du bruit qui court Je t'ai menti Je t'aime encore
Lentement je vois Cet univers-là Glisser vers le froid Le compte à rebours Dans l'air nucléaire Les derniers rebelles Brûlent sous les lasers Du manque d'amour
Que veux-tu que je sois Dans cette société-là? Un ange ou un cobra Un tueur ou un rat? Où veux-tu que je vive Dans la radioactive? Comment veux-tu que je meure D'un bel accord mineur?

Uma parte de mim é todo mundo Outra parte é ninguém Fundo sem fundo Uma parte de mim é multidão Outra parte estranheza e solidão Uma parte de mim, pesa Pondera Outra parte, delira Uma parte de mim almoça e janta Outra parte se espanta Uma parte de mim é permanente Outra parte se sabe de repente Uma parte de mim é só vertigem Outra parte, linguagem Traduzir uma parte noutra parte Que é uma questão de vida ou morte Será arte? Será arte?
I Made It Through The Rain Composer(s): Gerard W. Kenny; Drey Shepperd Performer(s): Barry Manilow and multiple other artists
We dreamers have our ways Of facing rainy days And somehow we survive We keep our feelings warm Protect them from the storm Until our time arrives Then one day the sun appears And we come shining through Those lonely years
I made it through the rain I kept my world protected I made it through the rain I kept my point of view I made it through the rain And found myself respected By the others who Got rained on too And made it through
When friends are hard to find And life seems so unkind Sometimes you feel afraid Just aim beyond the clouds And rise above the crowds And start your own parade 'Cause when I chased my fears away That's when I knew I could finally say...
I made it through the rain I kept my world protected I made it through the rain I kept my point of view I made it through the rain And found myself respected By the others who Got rained on too And made it through
A true musician plays Through all the rainy days And every song survives He takes the stage by storm And keeps the music warm Until his luck arrives And then a melody appears Taking him past Those weather beaten years...
I made it through the rain I kept my world protected I made it through the rain I kept my point of view I made it through the rain And found myself respected By the others who Got rained on too And made it through
No matter how it rains A singer entertains And music must be made Before you draw the crowd Your pour your heart out loud And start your own parade Then you play the clouds away Waiting until you hear Your music say...
Then you play the clouds away Waiting until you hear Your music say...
I made it through the rain I kept my world protected I made it through the rain I kept my point of view I made it through the rain And found myself respected By the others who Got rained on too And made it through
I Lupi Attorno A Noi
((French Version: Le Temps Des Loups (by Charles Aznavour))
Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - Georges Garvarentz - Giancotto
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Se guarderai io sono qui, non vivo più
Cammino, ma non so perché
Senza di te, che senso ha
Per te strangolerò la rabbia
Per te io fermerò la pioggia
E i lupi poi cancellero
Ascolta un po'
Un cuore che ha pianto te
In mezzo a mille cose che
Cambiando poi, mi lascian qui
Per te io scorso la violenza
Per te reinventerò l'infanzia
Che i lupi sa ammestrar
Vorrei in fondo agli occhi tuoi
Scordar le pene
Spezzar con i capelli tuoi
Le mie catene
Vedere che per l'amore che tu hai
Da oggi in poi scompare
Chi non sa amar
Stringiti a me
Valgo soltanto quel che sai
Le unghie e i denti anch'io li ho
Ma i sogni miei non son così
Per te soltanto tenerezza
Per te la nostra debolezza
I lupi poi sconfiggerà
Così cammino
Senza di te verso l'abisso
Lo sai, sarei
Senza di te meno che niente
Ritorna qui e con te, con l'amor
Cancellerò i lupi attorno a noi
Vieni con me, candidamente
Crederò che nei segreti del tuo cuor
Un mondo arriva e l'altro va
Per te la fede più profonda
Lo sai, mi porta nel tuo mondo
Dove vedrai non i saranno più
I lupi ormai
