Escarcha Composer(s): Agustín Lara
Performer(s): Agustín Lara
and multiple other artists
Mira, corta esos males, la doliente ansiedad que me fatiga Oye, yo te idolatro aún cuando tu desprecio me castiga
Cuando la escarcha pinte tu dolor cuando ya estés cansada de sufrir yo tengo un corazón para quererte y el nido donde tú puedas vivir Blanco diván de tul te aguardará tu exquisito abandono de mujer yo te sabré querer, yo te sabré besar y yo haré palpitar todo tu ser
Yo te sabré querer, yo, yo te sabré besar y yo haré palpitar todo tu ser
I'll Come Back As Another Woman Composer(s): Richard Carpenter; Kent Robbin Performer(s): Tanya Tucker
You never gave me back the love I gave to you You just gave me half your heart and that half was untrue So I'll leave you with a promise, from a heart that's heard enough Someday you'll find out that you can't escape my love
I'll come back as another woman One with all the secrets to your heart I'll come back as another woman I'll be the one you burn for That you reach for in the dark I'll be the one that breaks your devil heart
Some day you'll wake up with your arms around a dream The love that she will make to you will be too good to believe You'll say: "I love you," and for once it will be true You'll fall too fast to realise who you're talking to
You'll give your heart and soul, she'll be the only one You'll be hers completely, there'll be no way you can run And with a smile she'll break your loving heart in two And, baby, you'll recall the one who said these words to you
I'll come back as another woman One with all the secrets to your heart I'll come back as another woman I'll be the one you burn for That you reach for in the dark I'll be the one that breaks your devil heart
You'll hear the echo of my promise (Ha, Ha, Ha) How you laughed and how I cried The one you finally give your heart to (Ha, Ha, Ha) Will leave you crying in the night
I'll come back as another woman One with all the secrets to your heart I'll come back as another woman I'll be the one you burn for That you reach for in the dark I'll be the one that breaks your devil heart
¿Por qué la tierra es mi casa? ¿Por qué la noche es oscura? ¿Por qué la luna es blancura que engorda como adelgaza? ¿Por qué una estrella se enlaza con otra, como un dibujo? Y ¿por qué el escaramujo es de la rosa y el mar? Yo vivo de preguntar saber no puede ser lujo
El agua hirviente en puchero suelta un ánima que sube a disolverse en la nube que luego será aguacero Niño soy tan preguntero tan comilón del acervo que marchito si le pierdo una contesta a mi pecho Si saber no es un derecho seguro será un izquierdo
Yo vine para preguntar flor y reflujo Soy de la rosa y de la mar como el escaramujo
Soy aria, endecha, tonada soy Mahoma, soy Lao-Tsé soy Jesucristo y Yahvéh soy la serpiente emplumada soy la pupila asombrada que descubre como apunta soy todo lo que se junta para vivir y soñar soy el destino del mar soy un niño que pregunta
Yo vine para preguntar flor y reflujo Soy de la rosa y de la mar como el escaramujo
I was tired of my lady - we'd been together too long Like a worn-out recording of a favorite song So while she lay there sleeping, I read the paper in bed And in the personal columns there was this letter I read
"If you like Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain If you're not into yoga, if you have half a brain If you'd like making love at midnight in the dunes on the Cape Then I'm the love that you've looked for - write to me and escape"
I didn't think about my lady - I know that sounds kind of mean But me and my old lady have fallen into the same old dull routine So I wrote to the paper, took out a personal ad And though I'm nobody's poet, I thought it wasn't half bad
"Yes I like Pina Coladas and getting caught in the rain I'm not much into health food - I am into champagne I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon and cut through all this red-tape At a bar called O'Malley's, where we'll plan our escape"
So I waited with high hopes and she walked in the place I knew her smile in an instant, I knew the curve of her face It was my own lovely lady, and she said, "Oh it's you" Then we laughed for a moment, and I said, "I never knew"
That you like Pina Coladas, getting caught in the rain And the feel of the ocean, and the taste of champagne If you'd like making love at midnight in the dunes of the Cape You're the lady I've looked for - come with me and escape
If you like Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain...
I'll Buy You A Star Composer(s): Dorothy Fields; Arthur Schwartz Performer(s): Johnny Mathis and multiple other artists
There's nothing that I know here on this earth good enough for you So if I want to show you all you're worth I'd have to try shopping up in the sky
I'll buy you a star Not just a star but the best one in the sky You'll have a cloud to sleep on A cloud as light as an angel's sigh A fine silver chain made from the rain of a summer afternoon
I'll buy you a star my darling But I won't rest until I buy the moon A fine silver chain made from the rain of a summer afternoon
I'll buy you a star my darling But I won't rest until I buy the moon But I won't rest until I buy the moon
I'll Buy That Dream Composer(s): Herb Magidson; Allie Wrubel Performer(s): Anne Jeffreys and multiple other artists
Imagine me with my head on your shoulder And you with your lips getting bolder A sky full of moon and a sweet mellow tune I'll buy that dream
Imagine me in a gown white and flowery And you thanking Dad for my dowry A church full of folks, those last minute jokes I'll buy that dream
A honeymoon in Cairo, in a brand new autogyro Then off to Rio for a drink We'll settle down in Dallas In a little plastic palace Oh it's not as crazy as you think
Imagine me eighty three wearing glasses And you ninety two making passes It soesn't sound bad, and if it can be had I'll buy that dream
Imagine me with my head on your shoulder And you with your lips getting bolder The sky full of moon, a sweet mellow tune I'll buy that dream
Imagine me in a gown white and flowery And you thanking Dad for my dowry A church full of folks and those last minute jokes I'll buy that dream
A honeymoon in Cairo in a brand new autogyro Then home by rocket in a wink We'll settle down near Dallas In a little plastic palace It's not as crazy as you think
Imagine me on our first anniversary With some one like you in the nursery Oh, it doesn't sound bad And if it can be had
Esa Será Mi Casa Composer(s): Enrique Carnicer - Carmen Fons - Alvaro Sebastián Performer(s): Nino Bravo; Lolita
Un libro quedará abierto una carta sin escribir de un árbol caerá una hoja y yo me alejaré de ti allí quedará mi silla sin que nadie se siente en ella allí quedará mi amor entre las paredes viejas
Esa será mi casa cuando me vaya yo esa será mi casa cuando te diga adiós esa será mi casa cuando te diga adiós esa será mi casa cuando me vaya yo
El polvo sobre los muebles cubre nuestras huellas el viento borra el recuerdo llevándose nuestro amor un cirio sin consumir caerá sobre la mesa se apagará su luz y se cerrará una puerta
Esa será mi casa cuando me vaya yo esa será mi casa cuando te diga adiós esa será mi casa cuando te diga adiós esa será mi casa cuando me vaya yo
Esa será mi casa cuando me vaya yo esa será mi casa cuando te diga adiós esa será mi casa cuando me vaya yo largo será el camino en mi desolación
I'll Bet You A Kangaroo Composer(s): Larry Murray Performer(s): Olivia Newton-John
Well I'll bet you a kangaroo We could all dance to a didjeridoo Everybody's looking for something new Bet you something old could get to you Come on boys, give it a chance Adelaide ladies just love to dance Come on boys, give it a chance All God's children just love to dance
Well I'll bet you a kangaroo The world's been waiting for a didjeridoo There's a new day coming and it won't be long When we can all lean on a one-note song Come on boys, give it a chance London ladies just love to dance Come on boys, give it a chance All God's children just love to dance
Listen boys, I hear thunder Rolling up from a way down under There's a flash on the horizon Like a midnight sun arising Matilda is awaking The world is awaiting for a song You've been waltzing way too long Matilda I think it's time You did a step all of your own You've been waltzing away too long Matilda is awaiting The world is awaiting for a song Come on boys, give it a chance Nashville ladies just love to dance Come on boys, give it a chance, All God's children just love to dance
I'll bet you a kangaroo The world's been waiting for a didjeridoo There's a new day coming and it won't be long When we can all lean on a one-note song Come on boys, give it a chance Nashville ladies just love to dance Come on boys, give it a chance All God's children just love to dance
En tu mirar, cual cielo, descubrí el amor Entre tus brazos me olvidé del sol Mientras bailamos pude yo tener Esa boquita roja flor y miel Que me juraba tiernas palabras de amor Y de la mano salimos tú y yo Fue la noche hermosa testigo casual Bajo un coro de estrellas te amé Soy feliz porque en tus ojos Tan bellos encontré la luz Por tus caricias olvidé el dolor Entre mil besos pude yo tener Esa boquita roja flor y miel Que me juraba tiernas palabras de amor Y de la mano salimos tú y yo Fue la noche hermosa testigo casual Bajo un coro de estrellas te amé
I'll Begin Again Composer(s): Leslie Bricusse Performer(s): Sammy Davis Jr. and multiple other artists
(Scrooge says) I'm alive! I'm alive! I've got a chance to change and I will not be man I was I'll begin again I will build my life I will live to know that I fulfilled my life I'll begin today Throw away the past And the future I build will be something that will last I will take the time I have left to live and I will give it all that I have left to give I will live my days for my fellow men And I live in praise of that moment when
I was able to begin again I will start anew I will make amends And I will make quite certain that the story ends On a note of hope On a strong amen And I will thank the world and remember when I was able to begin again!
Es War Einmal Composer(s): Paul Lincke
Performer(s): Dieter Thomas Heck
Es gibt im Volkesmunde wohl Märchen ohne Zahl ein jedes in der Runde beginnt: Es war einmal! Die Kinder sehnend lauschen und schwelgen voller Glück die Alten Blicke tauschen und denken weit zurück Verliebte aber halten sich innig Hand in Hand und gleichen selbst Gestalten aus holdem Märchenland
Wie hört man immer gerne beim Abendsonnenstrahl aus grauer Märchenferne den Gruß: Es war einmal! Der Jugend Herz ohn' Fehle wird müd' der Märchen nie verschließ auch deine Seele nicht ihrer Poesie Nicht kann die Welt dir geben nur Glanz und Gold allein und doch strahlt deinem Leben oft Märchensonnenschein
Wenn auch die Jahre enteilen, bleibt die Erinnerung noch selige Träume verweilen ewig im Herzen dir doch Schwindet auch trüg'risch von hinnen was heut' noch dein Ideal denke: die Märchen beginnen alle: Es war einmal!
