Si Ves A Mi Padre Composer(s): León Gieco Performer(s): León Gieco
Si vas hacia el centro de este verde lugar encontrarás mi pueblo donde nací Pregunta por mi padre y te sabrán decir que es un campesino amigo del sol
Busca a mi padre y dile que estoy bien que mi conciencia sigue libre y que siguen muy mansos mis pensamientos y que siguen muy mansos mis pensamientos oh oh oh
Si vas hacia el centro de este verde lugar encontrarás mi pueblo donde nací
Pregunta por mi padre y te sabrán decir que es un campesino amigo del sol
Dile que extraño las cosechas el rumor del bosque y la hierba las frutas frescas y del verano las siestas las frutas frescas y del verano las siestas
Paper Sun Composer(s): Vivian Campbell; Phil Collen; Joe Elliott; Rick Savage; Pete Woodroffe Performer(s): Def Leppard
Does it hurt to remember Does it help to forget Do you know what you started When you lit the fuse of regret
There's not a reason why you've come undone There's nothing left to justify, this can't go on There's nothing left inside as I walk this broken land
'Cause you're living on a paper sun Blind to all the damage done Living on a paper sun Waiting for the tide to turn Living on a paper sun You can't hide and you can't run All your dreams have come and gone Living on a paper sun
Do you still hear 'em screamin' And does the fear make you run Is the anger inside of you A gift from father to son
I don't believe in you, you've come undone I don't believe in what you do, this can't go on I don't believe in you as I walk this broken land
Cause you're living on a paper sun Blind to all the damage done Living on a paper sun Waiting for the tide to turn Living on a paper sun You can't hide and you can't run All your dreams have come and gone Living on a paper.....
You will discover the way to suffer And like no other you feed the fire
There's not a reason why you've come undone There's nothing left to justify, this can't go on There's nothing left inside as I walk this broken land
Cause you're living on a paper sun Blind to all the damage done Living on a paper sun Waiting for the tide to turn Living on a paper sun Waiting for the night All your dreams have come and gone
Amami Se Vuoi Composer(s): Vittorio Mascheroni; Marissa Panzeri First performance by: Tonina Torrielli - 1956
Mi piace tanto accarezzarti Sugli occhi timidi baciarti ma non mi sento di giurarti se tu mi chiedi, eterno amor Abbandoniamoci al destino soltanto lui non sa ingannar... e se rimango a te vicino non lusingarti, ma non disperar... no...
Amami se vuoi tienimi se puoi io sono l'amor che svanisce ma dei baci miei non fidarti mai io son l'amor che ferisce... e quando fra le braccia mi stringi dolcemente ancor più dolcemente ti dirò... Amami se vuoi tienimi se puoi perché io son così
Paper Roses Composer(s): Fred Spielman; Janice Torre Performer(s): Anita Bryant
I realize the way your eyes deceived me With tender looks that I mistook for love So take away the flowers that you gave me And send the kind that you remind me of Paper roses paper roses Oh how real those roses seem to be But they're only imitation Like your imitation love for me I thought that you would be a perfect lover You seemed so full of sweetness at the start But like a big red rose that's made of paper There isn't any sweetness in your heart Paper roses paper roses Oh how real those roses seem to be But they're only imitation Like your imitation love for me Like your imitation love for me
Si Un Amor Se Va Composer(s): Rafael de León; Antonio Areta; Alfonso Sainz Performer(s): Raphael
Si un amor se va, pienso y con razón Que otro llamará a mi corazón Yo me suelo sonreír de los que hablan de sufrir Pues ni frío ni calor a mis años da el amor El querer es poder ser libre siempre como el viento Cambiar de parecer Pues a la vida es mejor cambiar a tiempo de amor Cuando yo te vi te desengañé Y te dije así: yo querer no sé El amor a nuestra edad necesita libertad Que cariño es ilusión pero nunca una prisión El querer es poder ser libre siempre como el viento Cambiar de parecer Pues a la vida es mejor cambiar a tiempo de amor Si un amor se va, otro llegará Déjalo marchar Pues a la vida es mejor cambiar a tiempo de amor
Paper Maché Composer(s): Burt Bacharach; Hal David Performer(s): Dionne Warwick; Ronnie Aldrich
Twenty houses in a row Eighty people watch a TV show Paper people, carboard dreams
How unreal the whole thing seems
Chorus: Can we be living in a world made of paper maché? Everything is clean and so neat Anything thats wrong can be just swept away Spray it with cologne and the whole world smells sweet
Ice cream cones and candy bars Swings and things like bicycles and cars Theres a sale on happiness You buy two, and it costs less
(Chorus)
Read the papers, keep aware While youre lounging in your leather chair And, if things dont look so good Shake your head, and knock on wood
Paper Doll Composer(s): Johnny S. Black Performer(s): The Mills Brothers
I'm gonna buy a Paper Doll that I can call my own A doll that other fellows cannot steal And then the flirty, flirty guys with their flirty, flirty eyes Will have to flirt with dollies that are real
When I come home at night she will be waiting She'll be the truest doll in all this world I'd rather have a Paper Doll to call my own Than have a fickle-minded real live girl
I guess I had a million dolls or more I guess I've played the doll game o'er and o'er I just quarrelled with Sue, that's why I'm blue She's gone away and left me just like all dolls do
I'll tell you boys, it's tough to be alone And it's tough to love a doll that's not your own I'm through with all of them I'll never ball again Say boy, whatcha gonna do?
I'm gonna buy a Paper Doll that I can call my own A doll that other fellows cannot steal And then the flirty, flirty guys with their flirty, flirty eyes Will have to flirt with dollies that are real
When I come home at night she will be waiting She'll be the truest doll in all this world I'd rather have a Paper Doll to call my own Than have a fickle-minded real live girl
Paper Cup Composer(s): Jimmy Webb Performer(s): The 5th Dimension; and various other artists
Here inside my paper cup Everything is looking up On one comes in, no one goes out Nothin' to get hung up about I'm free and it's so easy to get by 'Cause I don't try
In my paper cup I have installed a shower stall Across the hall Running water and a den It's looking just like home again I'm free and I've installed refrigerated air You'd have to look inside Before you'd know that I was there And everybody says I'm quite insane And someday I'll be going down the drain I know they're right But I feel no pain
Here inside my paper cup Everything is looking up On one goes out, no one comes in It's lookin just like home again I'm free and it's so easy to get The things I've always wanted 'Cause I don't really want 'em anymore Living ain't so bad without a rudder Life is kind a groovy in the gutter If you know how, and I do So if you'd like to come along We'll sing a little paper song About a lonely paper plate Who couldn't find a paper mate I'm free, yes, I'm free And my life is looking up From inside my paper cup And I'm always looking up From inside my paper cup
Il Est Là First performance by: Dany Dauberson - 1956
Je ne peux changer ma vie Il est là Aussitôt que je le fuis Il est là J'ai beau faire, j'ai beau dire Je ne vois que son sourire Qui toujours semble me dire Je suis là, je suis là Accroché dans tous mes rêves Il est là Et me poursuivant sans trêve Il est là Il a le pouvoir du diable Qui règne sur ses semblables Mais quel pouvoir formidable Il est là, il est là J'ai tout tenté pour l'oublier J'ai traversé le monde entier Mais aucun homme ne m'a donné Une telle part d'éternité Je ne peux changer ma vie Il est là Aussitôt que je le fuis Il est là Il est extraordinaire Et puis comme il sait vous plaire Non il n'y a rien à faire Il est là, il est là Partout ses yeux, partout ses lèvres Je sens en moi comme une fièvre Tout mon être est anéanti Et tout le temps je me redis Je ne peux changer ma vie Il est là Aussitôt que je le fuis Il est là J'ai beau faire, j'ai beau dire Je ne vois que son sourire Qui toujours semble me dire Je suis là, je suis là. Quand je marche dans la rue Il est là Au milieu de la cohue Je le vois Il a sur moi une emprise Qui me fait peur et me grise Et ma volonté se brise Il est là, il est là Oh j'ai vraiment tout essayé Sans jamais pouvoir me passer Ni de son corps ni d'ses baisers C'est impossible de n'pas l'aimer Je ne peux changer ma vie Il est là Aussitôt que je le fuis Il est là Et jusqu'à ma dernière heure Jusqu'à mon dernier quart d'heure Une seule chose demeure Je le verrai là devant moi À tout jamais il sera là Il est là, il est là, il est là Il Est Là
Paper Boy Composer(s): Roy Orbison Performer(s): Little Richard & Roy Orbison; Peanuts Wilson
I walk down to the blue side of town Where there's no happiness, no joy Down at the end of a long dark street I saw a little paper boy
Paper boy; paperboy I've got bad news for you Paperboy, paperboy Me and my baby are through
She was my love my one and only I feel so bad I'm oh so lonely I'm looking for my love
I've got my own headlines for today they've been the same since she went away "One dark-haired angel disappears Seems like She's been gone a million years"
Paperboy, paper boy so long goodbye Paper boy, paper boy Thanks for listening while I cry
I feel a little better now that someone knows But I will go on looking forever, I suppose I'm looking for my love
Extra, extra read all about it My baby's gone and I wanna shout it I'm looking for my love (4x)
Si Tu Voulais M'aimer Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Ce serait merveilleux De voir briller tes yeux D'une lueur presqu'irréelle Chaque jour serait une lune de miel Si tu voulais m'aimer Si tu voulais m'aimer Si tu voulais m'aimer
Si j'avais en retour La même somme d'amour La vie serait sensationnelle Tout auréolée d'un arc-en-ciel Si tu voulais m'aimer Si tu voulais m'aimer Si tu voulais m'aimer
Nous aurions j'en suis sûr Le temps de rêver Et aucune aventure Ne briserait Cet accord parfait
Et quand nous serions vieux Nous aurions tous les deux Une petite place au ciel Au paradis des amants éternels Si tu voulais m'aimer Si tu voulais m'aimer Si tu voulais m'aimer
Paper Blood Composer(s): Keith Emerson; Greg Lake; Carl Palmer Performer(s): Emerson, Lake & Palmer
Livin' on a razor's edge Sharper than a knife Surrender to the power of wedge Keep running for your life You don't need no periscope You won't need second sight It'll come at you so fast my friend It's thank you and goodnight
Chorus Caught in the river You can't stop the flood That's the power of money, paper blood
Ambition flies on silver wings Searching for a crown King of kings, they pull the strings Until they run you down No matter what you've undergone The measure of success Is how much you can charge it on American Express
Chorus
You don't need to drive a car And you don't need a house And you don't need a guiding star When living like a mouse In the presidenttial suite They'd rather see you burn Ducking and diving just to make ends meet To the point of no return

Si tu viens au monde dans quelques années Sauras-tu répondre aux questions qu'on t'aura laissées Si tu viens sur Terre dans cent ans d'ici Sauras-tu refaire ce que nous avons démoli
Et voir le soleil à travers la fumée Sur le béton voir de l'herbe pousser Et marcher dans la foule sans jamais t'arrêter Jusqu'à ce que tu trouves, la main tendue, de l'amitié
Si tu viens sur Terre dans cent ans d'ici Sauras-tu refaire ce que nous avons démoli
Le pain et le vin et l'eau pure et l'eau bleue Et les grands chemins où tu vas où tu veux Avoir peur pour toi-même de tout ce qui t'attend Mais qu'une femme t'aime et malgré tout faire un enfant
Si tu viens au monde dans quelques années Sauras-tu répondre aux questions qu'on t'aura laissées Si tu viens sur Terre dans cent ans d'ici Sauras-tu refaire ce que nous avons démoli
Si tu viens au monde dans quelques années Sauras-tu répondre aux questions qu'on t'aura laissées
