Albany Composer(s): Nick Munro - Roger Whittaker Performer(s): Roger Whittaker; Günther Sturm
(Albany, hoch in den Bergen von Norton Green Albany, in deinen Mauern war ich einst zuhause Albany, Schloss meiner Väter, das ich geliebt ach, könnt' ich dich nur einmal wiedersehen)
Dies ist Gordon McKenzies Lied Sein Lied von Albany dem stolzen Schloss seines Clans das er eines Tages für immer verlieren sollte...
Albany, hoch in den Bergen von Norton Green Albany, in deinen Mauern war ich einst zuhause Albany, Schloss meiner Väter, das ich geliebt ach, könnt' ich dich nur einmal wiedersehen
Charles und Gordon waren zwei Brüder sangen als Kinder die gleichen Lieder jagten gemeinsam in den Wäldern Doch aus Bruderliebe und Freundschaft wurde eines Tages bittre Feindschaft als sie sah'n, sie liebten beide dasselbe Mädchen
Albany, hoch in den Bergen von Norton Green Albany, in deinen Mauern war ich einst zuhause Albany, Schloss meiner Väter, das ich geliebt ach, könnt' ich dich nur einmal wiedersehen
(Frag' nach Albany, man wird dir erzählen Einst war jeder Raum voll Leben und Licht Geh' nach Albany, finster schau'n die Türme Klopf an jede Tür, man öffnet dir nicht)
Charles und Gordon waren zwei Brüder man sagte einer stach den andern nieder doch ihren fairen Kampf sah keiner Wie ein Mörder musste Gordon fliehen kein McKenzie hat ihm je verziehen rastlos zieht er nun umher, findet keinen Frieden
Albany, hoch in den Bergen von Norton Green Albany, in deinen Mauern war ich einst zuhause Albany, Schloss meiner Väter, das ich geliebt ach, könnt' ich dich nur einmal wiedersehen
Oh, ho, ho Albany hoch in den Bergen von Norton Green Oh, ho, ho, Albany ja in deinen Mauern da war ich zu haus Oh, mein Albany könnt' ich dich nur einmal wiedersehen
Oh, ho, ho Albany hoch in den Bergen von Norton Green Oh, ho, ho, Albany ja in deinen Mauern da war ich zu Haus . . .
Yo sé que allí allí donde tú dices vuelan las alas del agua como palomas de escarcha y el mar no es azul sino el vuelo de tu imaginación en Albanta
Yo sé que allí allí donde tú dices las nubes callan palabras y el cielo no dice nada y el sol es un sol transparente como tu corazón en Albanta
Que aquí, tú ya lo ves es Albanta al revés
Yo sé que allí allí donde tú dices las ciencias no son exactas porque es eterna la infancia y el fin no es el fin porque no acaba lo que no empezó en Albanta
Yo sé que allí allí donde tú dices no existen hombres que mandan porque no existen fantasmas y amar es la flor más perfecta que crece en tu jardín en Albanta
Whenever God Shines His Light Composer(s): Van Morrison Performer(s): Van Morrison; and various other artists
Whenever God shines his light on me Open up my eyes so I can see When I look up in the darkest night Then I know everythings gonna be alright In deep confusion, in great despair When I reach out for him, he is there When I am lonely, as I can be Then I know that God shines his light on me Reach out for him, he'll be there With him, your troubles, you can share If you live the life you love You get the blessings from above. Heals the sick, and heals the lame Says you can do it too in Jesus' name And he lifts you up, and he turns you around And he puts your feet back, on higher grounds...
Respiri piano per non far rumore ti addormenti di sera e ti risvegli col sole sei chiara come l'alba sei fresca come l'aria Diventi rossa se qualcuno ti guarda e sei fantastica quando sei assorta nei tuoi problemi, nei tuoi pensieri
Ti vesti svogliatamente non metti mai niente che possa attirare attenzione un particolare, solo per farti guardare
E con la faccia pulita cammini per strada mangiando una mela, coi libri di scuola ti piace studiare non te ne devi vergognare
E quando guardi con quegli occhi grandi forse un po' troppo sinceri...sinceri si vede quello che pensi, quello che sogni e qualche volta fai pensieri strani e con una mano, una mano ti sfiori tu sola dentro una stanza e tutto il mondo fuori
When You've Got What It Takes Composer(s): Bill Lane; Roger Nichols Performer(s): The Carpenters
You've got nothing to hide You've got miles of feeling And acres of pride You've got it You've really got it
When you know who you are Then you live what you feel You live what you can And it's good when you've really got it And when you've got it
(chorus) Let it out Let it show Let 'em know Inside you've got it Let it shine like a fine tomorrow For when you do The felling comes back to you What a difference it makes When you'vegot what it takes What a difference it makes When you've got it
When you've sure of your heart Then you give it away And love is a promise You keep every day You know it And when you know it
You begin to believe You'll do more than survive That the best part of being is being alive You feel it And when you feel it
Let it out Let it show Let 'em know Inside you've got it Let it shine like a fine tomorrow For when you do The felling comes back to you What a difference it makes When you've got what it takes What a difference it makes When you've got it
What a difference it makes When you've got what it takes What a difference it makes When you've got it
What a difference it makes When you've got what it takes What a difference it makes When you've got it When you've got it everyday
Alaska & Me Composer(s): John Denver Performer(s): John Denver
When I was a child and I lived in the city I dreamed of Alaska so far away And I dreamed I was flying over mountains and glaciers Somehow I knew I'd live there one day Well it took me some growin', and a fair bit of schoolin' And a little bit of trouble to get on the move And I felt like a loser but I turned out the winner When I came to Alaska the land that I love
Here's to Alaska, here's to the people Here's to the wild and here's to the free Here's to my life in a chosen country Here's to Alaska and me
I was born in a cabin on Little Mulchatna Raised in hard times but I had a good life From the first time I flew with my father a singin' I knew that I'd wind up a bush pilot's wife
We sleep near the sound of a slow running river And wake up most mornings to a drizzling rain And we face every day like the first or the last one With nothin' to lose and heaven to gain
Here's to Alaska, here's to the people Here's to the wild and here's to the free Here's to my life in a chosen country Here's to Alaska and me
Oh, for the fire on a cold winters night And once more to gaze at the great northern lights For all of the beauty my children will see Here's to Alaska and me Here's to Alaska, here's to the people Here's to the wild and here's to the free Here's to my life in a chosen country Here's to Alaska and me

Alas Composer(s): J.M. Gallardo Performer(s): Miguel Gallardo
Cuando estés, cansada de seguir sola, y a nadie importes ya sola, entre la gente sola, y al borde de llorar Abriré, mis alas sobre ti cruzaré, por ti la tempestad venceré, todos tus miedos y entre mis brazos, volarás Vuela, yo iré detrás de ti vuela, cuando no puedas más vuela, sobre tus lágrimas vuela, sobre tu soledad Alas, que inventaré por ti alas, de sueños y de amor alas, llenas de vida que alejarán de ti el dolor
When You're In Love With A Beautiful Woman Composer(s): Even Stevens Performer(s): Dr. Hook & The Medicine Show
When you're in love with a beautiful woman it's hard When you're in love with a beautiful woman you know it's hard Everybody wants her, everybody loves her Everybody wants to take your baby home
When you're in love with a beautiful woman you watch your friends When you're in love with a beautiful woman it never ends You know that it's crazy, you want to trust her And then somebody hangs up when you answer the phone When you're in love with a beautiful woman you go it alone
Maybe it's just an ego problem Problem is, I've been fooled before By fair weathered friends and faint hearted lovers And everytime it happens It just convinces me more
When you're in love with a beautiful woman you watch her eyes When you're in love with a beautiful woman you look for lies Everybody tempts her, everybody tells her That she's the most beautiful woman they know When you're in love with a beautiful woman you go it alone
Everybody tempts her, everybody tells her That she's the most beautiful woman they know When you're in love with a beautiful woman you watch your friends When you're in love with a beautiful woman it never ends

When you're in love life will be, but a song Heaven above yours will be ever long Your soul will be aflame with madness you can't tame You tremble when you find, love is not blind

When I find Aladdin`s lamp some day I`ll rub the lamp and when the smoke clears away I`ll ask the genie grant me my one wish come true That the girl I love would only love me too
I`ve heard that in days of old The lamp did whatever it was told So when I find that thing I`m wishing her a wedding ring
I won`t ask for gold or wealth or fame I`m searching for a way to change her name I`ll ask for her lips (her lips), her arms (her arms) gotta hold her tight Oh tell where on earth is Aladdin`s lamp tonight

I said "well I'll tell ya one thing judge, old buddy, old pal" "If you wasn't wearin' that black robe I'd take out in back of this courthouse "And I'd try a little bit of your honor on" "You understand that, you hillbilly?"

When You're Good You're Lonesome Composer(s): Grace Doro Performer(s): Edythe Baker
I feel so sad and lonely I wish I knew just why Every one is happy While all I do is sigh I walk the straight and narrow path I'm good as I can be Maybe that's just what is wrong For it seems to me
My mother always told me "Be very, very good" I took her advice Like a good child always should I went to bed at eight o'clock But what did that get me? I have missed an awful lot Now I plainly see
When you are good, you're so lonesome And when you're lonesome you're blue Sometimes it seems very hard to believe Every dark cloud has a silver lining I think it'll get me a sweetie who'll make a fuss over me Just love and pet me all the day Then I'll never have to say When you are good you're so lonesome And when you're lonesome you're blue
Habíamos bebido la noche sin parar estaban casi todos en el medio de aquel bar no se por que querían seguirla en un hotel había tres o cuatro disfrazados de mujer pero ahora, ahora estabamos reunidos en lo de un esquimal casi todos los chiflados dos jirafas y un sultán yo tengo una teoría y vos un alacrán después de tanta cosa es mejor, es mejor no bailar pero ahora, ahora tengo resaca, resaca un tipo me seguía en una fiesta gay trataban solo un tema como es la primera vez no tuve mas remedio que ponerme a beber después salí corriendo y en un bar me emborrache pero ahora, ahora ya no estas muerta habíamos vaciado mas de la mitad yo había visto un tajo y quería mas y mas pedía que pedía y no sabia que botella por botella y ya no es un tajo sino tres pero ahora, ahora solo tengo resaca, resaca ya no estas muerta ya no estas muerta confirmado lo hacia sin parar se seca la garganta y no se puede respirar pero un día ya no estabas vos y yo como un suicida en esta mierda el rock & roll pero ahora, pero ahora, tengo resaca
habíamos cogido el día sin parar habíamos fumado y ya no hay nada que fumar en medio de aquel viento nadie mas que yo y algunos afiebrados que se esconden de este sol pero ahora, pero ahora ya no estas muerta
When You're A Long, Long Way From Home Composer(s): Sam M. Lewis; Geo. W. Meyer Performer(s): Harry James; and various other artists
I know where the sun is shining I know where someone is pining just a simple pal a country gal I know she's true What's the use of tears and sighing after many years of trying guess I'm going home no more to roam I'm feeling blue
When I leave this town I'll hurry where they never frown or worry when I say goodbye no one will sigh when I am gone give me back the brooks and clover with those shady nooks all over I could be content without a cent where I was born
When you're a long long way from home it makes you feel like you're alone it's hard to find a pal that's true that you can tell your troubles to and when you send a letter home your mother's voice rings in your ears and then you cross the T's with kisses what a strange world this is then you dot the I's with tears and all the sunshine turns to gloom when you're a long way from home
