Space Is Deep Composer(s): Dave Brock Performer(s): Hawkwind
Space is dark, it is so endless When you're lost it's so relentless It is so big, it is so small Why does man try to act so tall Is this the reason, deep in our minds?
It does not feel, it does not die Space is neither truth nor lie Into the void we have to travel To find the clue which will unravel Is this the reason, deep in our minds?
The secret lies with our tomorrow In each of us is a hidden sorrow The path goes onward through the night Beyond the realms of ancient light Is this the reason, deep in our minds?
Heart Of Glass Composer(s): Deborah Harry; Chris Stein Performer(s): Blondie
Once I had a love and it was a gas Soon turned out had a heart of glass Seemed like the real thing, only to find Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind
Once I had a love and it was divine Soon found out I was losing my mind It seemed like the real thing but I was so blind Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind
In between "what I find is pleasing" and "I'm feeling fine" Love is so confusing There's no peace of mind if I fear I'm losing you It's just no good, you teasing like you do Lost inside Adorable illusion and I cannot hide I'm the one you're using, please don't push me aside We coulda made it cruising, yeah Yeah, riding high on love's true bluish light
Once I had a love and it was a gas Soon turned out to be a pain in the ass Seemed like the real thing only to find Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind
The wind is cold The morning skies are gray And through the fog I walk along the bay Past a regiment of rusty swings On sandy fields of broken things
Ferris wheel was turning And the roller coaster roared Summer sun was burning On the hot dog stands and the candy stores They had chocolate ice cream Apples on a stick Big old jars with gumdrops in 'em And if you guessed it right you'd win 'em
Happyland, Happyland Land that dreams are made of Happyland, Happyland You could have a real nice time And a ride for just one dime
What a great place to be (??) bored, five and They left you alone They have these cars that you coud drive in Pretend you were old I was much better off when I was pretending Everything's far too real
Happyland, Happyland Land that dreams are made of Carousels, wishing wells Da da da da da da da Da da da da
Ferris wheel was turning The roller coaster roared Summer sun was burning On the hot dog stands and the candy stores
My Heart Goes Boom Composer(s): Tore Madsen - Morten Henriksen First performance by: Charmed - 2000
Wooh!
Summer, Saturday and sunshine, suddenly, I saw you there A stunning sight from God knows where You were standing in the shadows, looking quite impossible I lost my mind and popsicle
A radio was singing Something blue in perfect tune Half a look over your shoulder I couldn't keep from staring back at you
My heart goes boom when I see you, baby Don't you tell me maybe, it can never be too soon My heart goes boom, put your arms around me Say you're glad you found me, take me spinning round the moon My heart goes boom
Summer, Saturday, and sunset, you said hello and I said hi And something lit the evening sky You came out of the shadows with a teasing twinkle in your eye And took my senses for a ride
A radio was playing Something slow in perfect tune Half a smile as you sat down I couldn't seem to keep my eyes off you
My heart goes boom when I see you, baby Don't you tell me maybe, it can never be too soon My heart goes boom, put your arms around me Say you're glad you found me, take me spinning round the moon (My heart goes boom)
A radio was singing Something blue in perfect tune Half a look over your shoulder I couldn't seem to keep my eyes off you
My heart goes... My heart goes boom when I see you, baby Don't you tell me maybe, it can never be too soon My heart goes boom, put your arms around me Say you're glad you found me, take me spinning round the moon My heart goes boom
Happyland Composer(s): Joe Jackson Performer(s): Joe Jackson
It was on a summer night, she says, a year ago today Packed, the place was packed The chicos lookin' for some play He wore a satin shirt and said a prayer to Yemayá And he was calm and handsome As they squeezed through to the bar The girls were in tight dresses, just like sweets in cellophane Everyone was there Sabrosón from Spanish Harlem And luz from Camaguey In her hand a single rose, and in her mouth a razorblade Hot, the place was hot Too many people to be safe
Who cared It was our night Watch us seize the day And dance it all away...
Bailamos, esa noche, bailamos In Happyland
It was on a summer night, she says - yes, it was a year ago Hot, the place was hot but where else were they gonna go And then she heard the screams And saw the smoke come down And then it really turned into the hottest club in town She remembers all the firetrucks And that maldito TV crew And he, he didn't make it So, "mi amor, this song's for you" She's got red shoes on her feet A nd a red smile on her face And people say she's loca, to go back into that place
Who cared This is my night Watch me seize the day And dance it all away...
Heart Like A Wheel Composer(s): Anna McGarrigle Performer(s): Linda Ronstadt; and various other artists
Some say a heart is just like a wheel When you bend it, you can't mend it And my love for you is like a sinking ship And my heart is like that ship out in mid ocean
They say that death is a tragedy It comes once and it's over But my only wish is for that deep dark abyss 'Cause what's the use of living with no true lover
And it's only love, and it's only love That can wreck a human being and turn him inside out That can wreck a human being and turn him inside out
When harm is done no love can be won I know this happens frequently What I can't understand Oh please God hold my hand Is why it should have happened to me
And it's only love and it's only love And it's only love and it's only love Only love, only love Only love, only love
Desire Composer(s): Gerard James Borg - Philip Vella First performance by: Claudette Pace - 2000
From the first day I saw you To the last time we met I've desired to hold you Have you and make you mine
But to have and to hold To love and to grow It takes two hearts that beat To the rhythm of one
When you push me away I taste fear and pain Turns my fire to smoke With one word, with one stroke
Deep in my heart is desire to love Deep in my soul is desire to grow Deep in your smile is desire for more Deep when we kiss, the feeling that can't be missed
Let me live, let me die Let me laugh, let me cry Let me burn in your fire In flames of desire
Be my river of hope My mountain of truth Let me colour your life With the colour of love
Deep in my heart is desire to love Deep in my soul is desire to grow Deep in your smile is desire for more Deep when we kiss, the feeling that can't be missed
Dejjem ridtek Dejjem xtaqtek Lilek abbejt
Take me up, take me down Take me into your arms Spin the magic of love With one word, with one smile
My desire runs deep And I'm losing sleep I wake up to the light You're the key to my heart
Deep in my heart is desire to love Deep in my soul is desire to grow Deep in your smile is desire for more Deep when we kiss, the feeling that can't be missed
(Deep in my heart is desire to love) Deep in my soul (Deep in my soul is desire to grow) Deep in your smile is desire for more Deep when we kiss, the feeling that can't be missed
Heart Hotels Composer(s): Dan Fogelberg Performer(s): Dan Fogelberg
Well there's too many windows In this old hotel And rooms filled with reckless pride And the walls have grown sturdy And the halls have worn well But there is nobody living inside Nobody living inside
Gonna pull in the shutters On this heart of mine Roll up the carpets and pull in the blinds And retreat to the chambers That I left behind In hopes there still may be love left to find Still may be love left to find
Seek inspiration in daily affairs Your soul's in trouble and requires repairs And the voices you hear At the top of the stairs Are only echoes of unanswered prayers Echoes of unanswered prayers
Well there's too many windows In this old hotel And rooms filled with reckless pride And the walls have grown sturdy And the halls have worn well But there is nobody living inside Nobody living inside Nobody living inside
Heart Full Of Soul Composer(s): Graham Gouldman Performer(s): The Yardbirds
And I know if she had me back again well I would never make her sad I've gotta heart full of soul Sick at heart and lonely deep in dark despair Thinking one thought only where is she tell me where And if she says to you she doesn't love me just give her my message tell her of my plea She's been gone such a long time longer than I can bear but if she says she wants me tell her that I'll be there And if she says to you she doesn't love me just give her my message tell her of my plea
The Moon Composer(s): Dan Teodorescu First performance by: Taxi - 2000
I knew it all from the start I knew you'll rise above my world, a little sun warming my heart I betrayed myself, I knew I lied You've searched into my soul to find love And found me hiding deep inside You did see a way to set me free
Now I hear when the wind is playing with the stars of my night Simply 'cause I have you near Now I feel when the moon is playing on and on and on with my heart Simply 'cause your love is real Oh...
I knew it all, I understood I simply blinked and let the light give me reasons to be good You did see a way to set me free
Now I hear when the wind is playing with the stars of my night Simply 'cause I have you near Now I feel when the moon is playing on and on and on with my heart Simply 'cause your love is real Oh...
Yes, I feel when the moon is playing Oh...
Now I hear how the wind is playing with the stars of my night Simply 'cause I have you near Now I feel when the moon is playing on and on and on with my heart Simply 'cause your love is real Oh... Oh...
Heart Attack Composer(s): Steve Kipner; Paul Bliss Performer(s): Olivia Newton-John
My mouth is dry, my legs are weak I'm thinking this cause I can't speak I'm looking at you, you're looking at me You must think that I'm just crazy
If you only knew what you're putting me through It feels like a heart attack You're giving me a heart attack Heart attack You're giving me a heart attack Must have died and gone to heaven What a way to go
I can't catch my breath You must be a dream But you're the cutest thing I've ever seen I'm way past the point of recovery You're gonna be the death of me
If you only knew what you're putting me through It feels like a heart attack You're giving me a heart attack Heart attack You're giving me a heart attack Must have died and gone to heaven What a way to go A heart attack You're giving me a heart attack Heart attack You're giving me a heart attack You're giving me a heart attack You're giving me a heart attack

Llevo todo el dia escapando de los fans salen de los tazis, de la sopa, del placard preferiría andar borracho en el subte
Todos los conciertos son un acto de maldad todos los ensayos y jamás pude escuchar preferiría andar cantando en el subte
Quieres acercarte a mi y siempre te vas quieres que te hable a ti y no me escuchas
...pues esta es la verdad...
I'm a hippie siempre fue asi hay un hippie dentro de mi no me tomes tan en serio, solo dejo que ocurra
Salgo disfrazado con peluca y un gabán y los empleados me saludan al pasar preferiría estar limpiando en el subte
Yo rezo cada dia a la virgen del Luján para que me haga invisible en la ciudad cuando recuerdo mis mañanas en el subte... quieres acercarte a mi y siempre te vas quieres que te hable a ti y no me escuchas
...pues esta es la verdad...
Solo me dedico a andar tirado por ahi perdiendo el tiempo y olvidándome de mi (si tuvieras que vivir con "éste" solo una semana más ¡que pesado!) (ese es todo tu sueño) volverías a tu soledad
Soy un hippie en el subte hay un hippie en el subte hippie...
