Aca Entre Nos Composer(s): Martín Urieta Performer(s): Vicente Fernández & Alejandro Fernández
Por presumir a mis amigos les conte que en el amor ninguna pena me aniquila que pa' probarles de tus besos me olvide y me bastaron unos tragos de tequila
Les platique que me encontre con otro amor y que en sus brazos fui dejando de quererte que te aborrezco desde el dia de tu traicion y que hay momentos que he deseado hasta tu muerte
Aca entre nos quiero que sepas la verdad no te he dejado de adorar alla en mi triste soledad me han dado ganas de gritar salir corriendo y preguntar que es lo que ha sido de tu vida
Aca entre nos siempre te voy a recordar y hoy que a mi lado ya no estas no queda mas que confesar que ya no puedo soportar que estoy odiando sin odiar porque respiro por la herida
We Will Make Love Composer(s): Ronald Hulme Performer(s): Russ Hamilton
(Oh yes we will make love)
When the moon takes the place of the sun in the sky I'll call for my girlie We'll go walkin' by To a place no one knows That's how love goes Now we are alone We will make love Oh yes, we will make love
I wish we could wed But we are too young But one day I know Wedding bells will be rung For you and for me We'll promise to be So faithful and true I love you Oh yes, I love you
Now it's getting late Now we must part But before I go I will leave you my heart So don't shed a tear I'll always be near I'll hold you so tight And I'll kiss you goodnight Oh yes, I'll kiss you goodnight
When I go away Don't ever let your heart go astray `cos my love so true Is only for you So remember you're mine You're mine all the time
When the sun takes the place Of the moon in the sky We'll go on a journey You and I To a far distant land Where our dreams were planned In the clouds up above We will make love Oh yes, we will make love Oh yes, we will make love

Tous les cubains vous raccont'ront cette légende abuglubu, c'est un vieux mot au sens caché abugluba c'est la réponse à c'qu'il demande imaginez c'qu'un amoureux peut demander Pour nous renseigner il faudrait trouver une jeune cubaine qui voudrait nous l'expliquer Car tous les cubains connaissent très bien ce merveilleux refrain du bon fiancé moyen

Ça dit encore si tu le veux tu s'ras ma femme car ces deux mots nous chantent un amour éternel Abuglubu c'est l'Roméo de la Havane Abugluba c'est sa Juliette au cur de miel Et tous les cubains quand ils s'aiment bien adorent se donner ces deux noms prédestinés C'est pour ça qu'le soir quand ils vont danser sur toutes les musiques on les entend s'appeler
Abuglubu, abugluba je t'aimerai, je t'aimerai tu m'aimeras Abuglubu, abugluba je t'aimerai, je cèderai, on s'aimera ils ont d'la conversation Abuglubu, abugluba je t'aimerai, t'adorerai, on s'mari'ra (où est-ce qu'ils vont chercher tout ça?) et rien jamais ne sépar'ra ne sépar'ra Abuglubu, d'Abugluba Dis tu l'as vu? quoi? mon abuglubu mais j'croyais qu'c'était un abugluba C'est la même chose! Ah bon! Alors au revoir! Non pas au revoir, Abuglubu! Ah oui, c'est ça abugluba!
We were all uprooted The earth was stolen from beneath our feet We became a Diaspora An unnamed nation of bastards We channeled our roots to the pulse of light deep within the galaxies of our mind Our breath was the sky Our dreams were water We claimed the wilderness We recognized each other
Absolution Blues Composer(s): David Coverdale - Jimmy Page Performer(s): Jimmy Page
Bless me, Father, I have sinned, I've broken hearts, got drunk on gin An' still I lust for sweet young things On the day that I was born, bells rang out in Babylon Still I can't tell right from wrong, no matter what the Good Book says
Now I can see the sun is shining But, I can feel the rain Falling down to wash my tears away Wash my tears away
Holy Mother, save your tears, you've cried for me a thousand years But, I was blind to all your fears Now I can't stop the tears from falling down Come the dawn of judgement day I'll get down on my knees and pray St. Peter don't you, don't you send me away
Now I can see the sun is shining But, I can feel the rain Falling down to wash my tears away
Bless me, Father, I have sinned, I've broken hearts, got drunk on gin An' still I lust for everything, every little thing Come the dawn of judgement day, I'll get down on my knees and pray The Good Lord don't send me away, I'll never ever go
Now I can see the sun is shining But, I can feel the rain Falling down to wash my tears away
Wash my tears away, I'll get down on my knees Don't send me away, don't you send me away, no, no, no
Hello Central, Give Me France (aka We Want Our Daddy Dear, Back Home) Composer(s): James M. Reilly; Harry De Costa
A little girl woke when the dawn was near And the nurse said "See your new brother," dear She went to her mother with wondring stare And their thoughts were of Dad who's "over there" The little girl crept down the stairs all alone And this love call she sent through the telephone
The little girl smiled, then the clock struck one As the Central called White House, Washington The President heard and he understood Like the father of this great country should He cabled in code every word Central said In the trenches in France the proud Daddy read
Hello, Central, give me France I want to talk to Daddy dear Because I'd like to tell him while I got the chance The stork brought a brand new baby here Won't you say that its "me" And he'll answer you'll see So hurry, please, and get him on the phone Hello, Central, give me France 'Cause we want our Daddy dear back home
Absolutely Sweet Marie ((Swedish Version: Utan Tvekan Min Marie (by Mikael Wiehe & Ebba Forsberg) - 2007)) Composer(s): Bob Dylan First release by: Bob Dylan - 1966 Covered by multiple other artists
Well, your railroad gate, you know I just can't jump it Sometimes it gets so hard, you see I'm just sitting here beating on my trumpet With all these promises you left for me But where are you tonight, sweet Marie?
Well, I waited for you when I was half sick Yes, I waited for you when you hated me Well, I waited for you inside of the frozen traffic When you knew I had some other place to be Now, where are you tonight, sweet Marie?
Well, anybody can be just like me, obviously But then, now again, not too many can be like you, fortunately
Well, six white horses that you did promise Were fin'lly delivered down to the penitentiary But to live outside the law, you must be honest I know you always say that you agree But where are you tonight, sweet Marie?
Well, I don't know how it happened But the river-boat captain, he knows my fate But ev'rybody else, even yourself They're just gonna have to wait
Well, I got the fever down in my pockets The Persian drunkard, he follows me Yes, I can take him to your house but I can't unlock it You see, you forgot to leave me with the key Oh, where are you tonight, sweet Marie?
Now, I been in jail when all my mail showed That a man can't give his address out to bad company And now I stand here lookin' at your yellow railroad In the ruins of your balcony Wond'ring where you are tonight, sweet Marie

Utan Tvekan Min Marie ((Adapted from: Absolutely Sweet Marie (by Bob Dylan) - 1966)) Composer(s): Bob Dylan - Mikael Wiehe Performer(s): Mikael Wiehe & Ebba Forsberg - 2007
Ah, din pansardörr, jag orkar inte med den Ibland så får jag bara kris Så jag sitter här och fingrar lite på trumpeten och undrar om du tänker komma hit Var är du ikväll, min Marie
Jag vänta på dej när jag var trött och sliten Jag vänta på dej när du var kall som is Jag vänta på dej mitt i eftermiddagstrafiken när jag varken hade pengar eller tid Så var är du ikväll, min Marie
Dom andra du har är dubbelt så bra som jag uppenbart Men sen är del klart att inte många kan va som du Och dee ju tur
Dom vita varor, du hade lånat har äntligen kommit tillbaka hit till vårt menageri Ska man va laglös får man hålla det man lovar och ingen var så lovande som vi Så var är du ikväll, min Marie
Dee svårt att förstå men kaptenen på pråmen han känner mej Men resten av stan får vänta ett tag Det gäller också dej
Jag har fått feber i hela kroppen Nåt persiskt fyllo tar min tid Jag kan ta honom till din port men inte låsa upp den Du vet, du gav mej aldrig nycklar dit Var är du ikväll, min Marie
Jag fick ditt brev när jag satt inne och förstod att det inte finns nån gräns för mänskligt hyckleri Och nu står jag vid ditt hus med mina minnen och tycker mest det liknar en ruin Var är du ikväll, min Marie
Absolutely Right Composer(s): Les Emmerson Performer(s): Five Man Electrical Band; AC-Rock
I'm knockin' on your door So you let me in I swear I won't be the way I was before Don't you know that I was thinking About what you told me Rollin' it over in my mind And much to my surprise I find That you were absolutely right You've been right all along You're absolutely right and I'm wrong Second time around should be easy Break down the wall between me and you So we can see completely How easy love can be I know it was you who said It would be me who'd come crawlin' Back to you upon my knees And you were absolutely right You've been right all along You're absolutely right and I'm wrong I wish that you could see Oh how bad I want to be Oh the kind of man to who You'd give your key If you'd let me in the room again Come supper time we'll be sittin' By the fire this evening Drinkin' homemade wine We can laugh and dance and sing And play and love the night away
We Three (My Echo, My Shadow, And Me) Composer(s): Nelson Cogane; Sammy Mysels; Dick Robertson Performer(s): The Ink Spots; and various other artists
We three, we're all alone Living in a memory My echo, my shadow, and me
We three, we're not a crowd We're not even company My echo, my shadow, and me
What good is the moonlight The silvery moonlight that shines above? I walk with my shadow I talk with my echo but where is the one I love? We three, we'll wait for you Even till eternity my echo, my shadow, and me
We three we're all alone Seems like we're living in a memory That's my echo my shadow and me We three we ain't no crowd Fact is we ain't even company That's my echo my shadow and me You know I been wondering-what good is the moonlight that silvery moonlight that shines way, way up above? Yeah, I walk with my shadow, I talk with my echo but where is that gal that I love? We three, we'll wait for you Even till eternity My echo, my shadow, and me
Absolute Beginners Composer(s): Paul Weller Performer(s): The Jam
In echoed steps I walked across an empty dream I looked across this world, there was no one to be seen This empty feeling turned and quietly walked away I saw no warmth in life , no love was in my eyes I stared a century thinking this will never change As I hesitated, time rushed onwards without me Too scared to break the spell, too small to take a fall But the Absolute luck is, love is in our hearts
I lost some hours thinking of it I need the strength to go and get what I want I lost a lifetime thinking of it and lost an era daydreaming like I do
I stared a century thinking this would never change As I hesitated, time marched onwards without me Too scared to break the spell, too small to take a fall But the Absolute luck is, love is in our hearts
In echoed steps you walk across an empty dream But look around this world, there's millions to be seen Come see the tyrants panic see their crumbling empires fall Then tell 'em we don't fight for fools, 'cos love is in our hearts!
I lost some hours thinking of it I need the strength to go and get what I want I lost a lifetime thinking of it and lost an era daydreaming like I do
You can lose some hours thinking of it You need the strength to go and get what you want You can lose a lifetime thinking of it And lose an era daydreaming like I do
We Should Be Together Composer(s): Walter Bullock; Harold Spina Performer(s): Shirley Temple; Maria Muldaur
We should be together Like the walls and ceiling Like a door and doorknob Like the hat on your knob Like butler goes with doorbell Keyhole with key I think we'll get by If you'll stick with me
We should be together Like the frame and picture Like shoes and stockings Like the clocks tick tockings Like tap and toe, like high and low Stop and go honey Your a perfect lady Your a regular guy We should be together, you and I
We should be together Like bread and butter We should be together Like putt and putter Like corned beef with cabbage And lamb with stew How lucky I am that I go with you
We should be together Like rhyme and reason Like a coat and muffler When the weather's freezin' Like June and Moon In every popular song Baby, your a cup of coffee Your a peachy pie We should be together, you and I
Absolute Beginners Composer(s): David Bowie First release by: David Bowie - 1986 Covered by multiple other artists
I've nothing much to offer There's nothing much to take I'm an absolute beginner And I'm absolutely sane As long as we're together The rest can go to hell I absolutely love you But we're absolute beginners With eyes completely open But nervous all the same
If our love song Could fly over mountains Could laugh at the ocean/sail over heartaches second time Just like the films There's no reason To feel all the hard times To lay down the hard lines It's absolutely true
Nothing much could happen Nothing we can't shake Oh we're absolute beginners With nothing much at stake As long as you're still smiling There's nothing more I need I absolutely love you But we're absolute beginners But if my love is your love We're certain to succeed
If our love song Could fly over mountains Could laugh at the ocean/sail over heartaches second time Just like the films There's no reason To feel all the hard times To lay down the hard lines It's absolutely true
I remember the sun beating down Across my back The taste of olives and pleasures that You taught me And we broke bread and then we drank Cheap white wine Memories of happiness frozen for all time
I hear you crying in my heart Absent friends shall live by love Remember places of my past Absent friends shall live by love And the dead shall live again Absent friends shall live by Love...love...love...love
And i remember laughing so much we cried You knew my every thought, there was Nothing i could hide We celebrated moons we marvelled at The night sky With flute and drum and pen we were Grateful for our lives
I hear you crying in my heart Absent friends shall live by love Remember places of my past Absent friends shall live by love And the dead shall live again Absent friends shall live by Love...love...love...love
I hear you crying in my heart Absent friends shall live by love Remember places of my past Absent friends shall live by love And the dead shall live again Absent friends shall live by Love...love...love...love
We Saw The Sea Composer(s): Irving Berlin Performer(s): Fred Astaire; and various other artists
We joined the Navy to see the world And what did we see? We saw the sea We saw the Pacific and the Atlantic But the Atlantic isn't romantic And the Pacific isn't what it's cracked up to be
We joined the Navy to do or die But we didn't do and we didn't die We were much too busy looking at the ocean and the sky And what did we see? We saw the sea We saw the Atlantic and the Pacific But the Pacific isn't terrific And the Atlantic isn't what it's cracked up to be
They tell us that the Admiral Is as nice as he can be But we never see the Admiral Because the Admiral has never been to sea
We joined the Navy to see the girls And what did we see? We saw the sea Instead of a girl or two in a taxi We were compelled to look at the Black Sea Seeing the Black Sea isn't what it's cracked up to be
Sailing, sailing home again To see the girls upon the village green Then across the foam again To see the other seas we haven't seen
We owe the Navy an awful lot For they taught us how to do the Sailor's Hornpipe And they showed us how to tie a sailor's knot But more than that, they showed us the sea We never get seasick sailing the ocean We don't object to feeling the motion We're never seasick but we are awful sick of sea
Absence Makes The Heart Grow Fonder Composer(s): Samuel M. Lewis - Harry Warren - Joseph Young Performer(s): Dean Martin; The Ames Brothers; Russ Morgan
If you should leave me I know it would grieve me So honey please remember Absence makes the heart grow fonder For somebody else
I love you dearly I'm yours sincerely But honey please remember Absence makes the heart grow fonder For somebody else
When the cat's away the mice will play I don't say I will but still I may I may be blue away from you And then again I may be gay
When I get fretful I get forgetful So honey please remember Absence makes the heart grow fonder For somebody else
When the cat's away the mice will play I don't say I will but still I may I may be blue away from you And then again I may be gay
When I get fretful I get forgetful So honey please remember Absence makes the heart grow fonder For somebody else For somebody else
We Said Hello, Goodbye (Don't Look Back) Composer(s): Phil Collins Performer(s): Phil Collins
We said goodbye to a dear old friend And we packed our bags and left feeling sad It's the only way We said hello as we turned the key A new roof over our heads Gave a smile It's the only way Only way Turn your head And don't look back Set your sails for a new horizon Don't turn around don't look down Oh there's life across the tracks And you know it's really not surprising It gets better when you get there oh Well it really don't matter much where you are Cause home is in your heart It's a feeling that you wake with one day Some people key p running all their life And still find they haven't gone too far They don't see it's the feeling inside - the feeling inside oh Turn your head and don't look back Just set your sails for a new horizon Don't turn around don't look down Oh there's life across the tracks And you know it's really not surprising It gets better when you get there We said hello as we turned the key A new roof over our heads Gave a smile - it's the only way
