I'll Follow My Secret Heart Composer(s): Noël Coward Performer(s): Frank Sinatra and multiple other artists
I'll follow my secret heart My whole life through I'll keep all my dreams apart Till one comes true No matter what price is paid What stars may fade above I'll follow my secret heart Till I find love

Eskimo Blue Day Composer(s): Paul Kantner - Grace Slick
Performer(s): Jefferson Airplane; Grace Slick
Snow cuts loose from the frozen Until it joins with the African sea In moving it changes its cold and its name The reason I come and go is the same Animal game for me You call it rain But the human name Doesn't mean shit to a tree If you don't mind heat in your river and Fork tongue talking from me Swim like an eel fantastic snake Take my love when it's free Electric feel with me You call it loud But the human crowd Doesn't mean shit to a tree Change the strings and notes slide Change the bridge and string shift down Shift the notes and bride sings Fire eating people Rising toys of the sun Energy dies without body warm Icicles ruin your gun Water my roots the natural thing Natural spring to the sea Sulphur springs make my body float Like a ship made of logs from a tree Redwoods talk to me Say it plainly The human name Doesn't mean shit to a tree Snow called water going violent Damn the end of the stream Too much cold in one place breaks That's why you might know what I mean Consider how small you are Compared to your scream The human dream Doesn't mean shit to a tree
I'll Find You From the film "Sea Wife" Composer(s): Tolchard Evans; Richard Mullan Performer(s): David Whitfield
(Sea wife, sea wife)
I'll find you, and birds will sing again Till I do, there'll be no spring again I miss you like the flowers Would miss the morning dew The seconds seem like hours When they're not shared with you I'll find you, you haunt my heart and I In each breeze I seem to hear you sigh You tell me to forget you, You wouldn't if you knew I'll find no peace of mind till I find you
You tell me to forget you, You wouldn't if you knew I'll find no peace of mind till I find you
Ese Hombre Composer(s): Domínguez
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Ese hombre que por hechos o por dichos es respetado tanto ese hombre que por dichos o por hechos es festejado tanto debiera olvidar que casi iba solo cuando desnudó aquella emoción que ahora es de todos debiera olvidar que casi iba solo cuando conquistó el cetro que hoy le ciñen a coro
Ese hombre que por hechos o por dichos es escuchado tanto ese hombre que por dichos o por hechos es contemplado tanto recuerde por qué, por qué es que le quieren recuerde que ha partido de sí en pos de otros seres recuerde por qué, por qué es que le quieren recuerde que dar con una razón impone deberes
Ese hombre que por hechos o por dichos es amado tanto ese hombre que por dichos o por hechos es alabado tanto se cuide de sí, se cuide de él sólo porque hay un placer perverso en creer merecerlo todo se cuide de sí, se cuide de él sólo porque el mismo don que lo levantó puede ahogarlo en lodo

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
