Amanecer
Composer(s): Domínguez - Silvio Rodríguez
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez



Qué musa maravillosa
habrá bajado a besarte
y qué delicia tortuosa
habrá sentido al dejarte

Tú te diste a musicarla
con violines de ambrosía
y a la hora de guardarla
viste tus manos vacías

Pobre insensato pintor
paleta en mano tinta de amanecer
rompiendo sombras, inventando el color
que sólo tú podías, sólo tú creías ver

Así voló tu memoria
aún más allá que tus años
Siempre es noticia una historia
de besos y desengaños

Desde que hallaste la musa
que te llevó a la locura
canta tu línea inconclusa
la misma recta sin cura 

Wonderful World Of Sex
Composer(s): Steve Goodman
Performer(s): Steve Goodman



I could learn to understand Swahili by myself
I could even teach it to my good dog, Ralph
I could learn to read you every book up on the shelf
I could learn to tell your fortune like the oracle of Delphi

I could learn to tell you every flower by its color
I could learn to swim as fast as Johnny Weissmuller
But I couldn't never learn to get along without you
Don't you run away from me, I sure dig sex

You can get love from your papa or your mama
You can get warm from a Turkish or a sauna
You can get hot from tortillas or lasagna
But you get all three when you neck with me

I really must confess it gets me in the solar plexus
When I think about the differences there are between the sexes
Peanut butter sandwiches are really neat
But when you get right down to it you can't compete with
Good old double S - E - double X is
Camper than batman, bigger than Texas
You're concave and I'm convex
Welcome to the world of sex

Do I love you, is the Pope Catholic?
Do I need you, is a rubber band elastic?
Do I want you, is the atom bomb drastic?
Let's us be heterosexually entwined, we fit like a tailored suit dear

I dig you more than I dig root beer
Green Giant peas need a big green pod
I spend a lot of time needing your bod
Walking around through fields of clover
Can't we lie down and talk things over?
You never know whats coming off next
In the wonderful world of sex

Amando Sobre Os Jornais
Composer(s): Chico Buarque
Performer(s): Maria Bethânia



Amando noites afora
Fazendo a cama sobre os jornais
Um pouco jogados fora
Um pouco sábios demais
Esparramados no mundo
Molhamos o mundo com delícias
As nossas peles retintas
De notícias

Amando noites a fio
Tramando coisas sobre os jornais
Fazendo entornar um rio
E arder os canaviais
Das páginas flageladas
Sorrimos, mãos dadas e, inocentes
Lavamos os nossos sexos
Nas enchentes

Amando noites a fundo
Tendo jornais comno cobertor
Podendo abalar o mundo
No embalo do nosso amor
No ardor de tantos abraços
Caíram palácios
Ruiu um império
Os nossos olhos vidrados
De mistério

Don't know much about a science book
don't know much about the french I took
But I do know that I love you
and I know that if you love me, too
what a wonderful world this would be

Don't know much about geography
don't know much trigonometry
Don't know much about algebra
don't know what s slide rule is for
But I know that one and one is two
and if this one could be with you
what a wonderful world this would be

I don't claim to be an 'A' student
but I'm tryin' to be
For maybe by being an 'A'-student, baby
I can win your love for me

Don't know much about history

Amanda
Composer(s): Bob McDill
First release by: Don Williams - 1973
Covered by multiple other artists



I've held it all inward
Lord knows I've tried
It's an awful awakenin'
In a country boy's life
When you look in the mirror
In total surprise
At the hair on your shoulders
And the age in your eyes

Amanda light of my life
Fate should have made you a gentle man's wife
Amanda light of my life
Fate should have made you a gentle man's wife

Well the measure of people
Don't understand
The pleasures of life
In a hillbilly band
I got my first guitar
When I was fourteen
Now I'm crowding thirty
And still wearin' jeans

Amanda light of my life
Fate should have made you a gentle man's wife
Amanda light of my life
Fate should have made you a gentle man's wife

This is a wonderful day
It's as bright as a day's ever been
There is a big yellow sun looking down
On a wonderful scene

Up in the blue sky birds fly
And sing our cares away
And out of each throat each note
Greets a wonderful day

There is the sound of a symphony
Carried along on the breeze
Even the flowers are swaying in time
With the leaves on the trees

Heaven is found right here on the earth
It surrounds us in the wonderful things all around
In this wonderful wonderful
Wonderful wonderful world

This is a wonderful day
It's as bright as a day's ever been
There is a big yellow sun looking down
On a wonderful scene

Heaven is found right here on the earth
It surrounds us in the wonderful things all around
In this wonderful wonderful
Wonderful wonderful world
Wonderful world, this wonderful world
Wonderful world, this wonderful world
Wonderful world, this wonderful world

Babe, tomorrow's so far away
There's somethin' I just have to say
I don't think I could hide
What I'm feelin' inside
Another day
Knowin' I love you

And I -- I'm getting' too close again
I don't wanna see it end
If I tell you tonight
Will you turn out the light
And walk away
Knowin' I love you?

I'm gonna take you by surprise
And make you realize

I'm gonna say it like a man
And make you understand

And, I feel like today's the day
I'm lookin' for the words to say
Do you wanna be free
Are you ready for me
To feel this way?
I don't wanna lose ya

So it may be too soon I know
The feelin' takes so long to grow
If I tell you today
Will you turn me away
And let me go?
I don't wanna lose you

I'm gonna take you by surprise
And make you realize
Amanda
I'm gonna tell you right away
I can't wait another day

And I swear -- I swear it's not a lie girl

And tomorrow may be too late

And, feelin' the way I do

To say I'm in love with you

Wonderful Wino
Composer(s): Jeff Simmons; Frank Zappa
Performer(s): Frank Zappa;
The Muffin Men; Jeff Simmons



L.A. in the summer of '69
I went downtown and bought me some wine
I wasted my head on a bottle of juice
And now the grapes won't cut me loose
Well I'm a wino man
Well, don't you know I am?
Great god almighty, don't you know I'm a wino man

36, 24, hips about 30
Seen a fine lady and I started talkin' dirty
She looked at me and then she raised the thumb
And said: "Jam down the road, you funky ass bum"
Well I'm a wino man
Well, don't you know I am?
Great god almighty, don't you know that I'm a wino man

I went to the country
And while I was gone
I lost control of my body functions
On a roller-headed lady's front lawn
I'm so ashamed, but I'm a wino man
And I can't help myself

I've been drinkin' all night till my eyes got red
Stumbled on the gutter and busted my head
Bugs in my zoot suit, have been scratchin' like a dog
Can't stand no water, and I stink like a hog
Give me a five dollar bill
And an overcoat too
Give me a five dollar bill
And an overcoat too
A five dollar bill and an overcoat too
A five dollar bill and a Florsheim shoe

Ámame Ahora, No Mañana
Performer(s): Miguel Mateos



Ella sólo buscaba un lugar donde anclar
y en su ropa llevaba los gritos del mundo
Por favor, déjame pasar!
que la gente en las calles lastima por nada

Sácate el reloj
Ámame ahora, no mañana
Ámame ahora, no mañana

Y las manos son bestias tocando un rosal
y los besos son tiros que rompen los vidrios
no me des, tatuajes de tu amor
porque hay tanta mentira y tan poco tiempo

Sácate el reloj
Ámame ahora, no mañana
Ámame ahora, no mañana

Tengo mis remos clavados
en la arena gris
no puedo volver, ni puedo seguir
por favor no me dejes dormir

Ámame ahora, no mañana
Ámame ahora, no mañana

Tengo mis remos clavados
en la arena gris
no puedo volver, ni puedo seguir
por favor no me dejes...

Ámame ahora, no mañana
Ámame ahora, no mañana.
no mañana, solo ahora, hacelo ahora

Wonderful Tonight
French & Spanish Titles:
Merveilleuse Ce Soir; Eres Maravillosa
Composer(s): Eric Clapton; Michael Kamen
Originally performed and made famous by: Eric Clapton 
Covered by various other artists



It's late in the evening; she's wondering what clothes to wear
She puts on her make-up and brushes her long blonde hair
And then she asks me, "Do I look all right?"
And I say, "Yes, you look wonderful tonight"

We go to a party and everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady that's walking around with me
And then she asks me, "Do you feel all right?"
And I say, "Yes, I feel wonderful tonight"

I feel wonderful because I see
The love light in your eyes
And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize how much I love you

It's time to go home now and I've got an aching head
So I give her the car keys and she helps me to bed
And then I tell her, as I turn out the light
I say, "My darling, you were wonderful tonight
Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight"

Amame
Composer(s): José Luis Perales
Performer(s): Raphael



Dime por que hoy tu mirada vuela atravesando la noche
Te siento lejos de mi, quiero saber por que

Tu me diras: "no te preocupes no es nada
Mis pensamientos estaban junto a ti"

Besame, ya sabes que por ti daria hoy la vida
Mirame, que vuelvan tus miradas a encender las mias
Amame y luego repiteme hasta enloquecer "te quiero"

Besame, ya sabes que por ti daria hoy la vida
Mirame, que vuelvan tus miradas a encender las mias
Amame y luego repiteme hasta enloquecer "te quiero"

Sonreiras y volvera de nuevo ese silencio que duele
Y tras la noche tendra un nuevo amanecer
Se perdera esa pregunta en el aire
Y cuando muera la tarde volvera

Besame, ya sabes que por ti daria hoy la vida
Mirame, que vuelvan tus miradas a encender las mias
Amame y luego repiteme hasta enloquecer "te quiero"

Besame, ya sabes que por ti daria hoy la vida
Mirame, que vuelvan tus miradas a encender las mias
Amame y luego repiteme hasta enloquecer "te quiero" 

Wonderful Summer
Composer(s): Gil Garfield; Perry Botkin Jr.
Performer(s): Robin Ward



I want to thank you for giving me
The most wonderful summer of my life
It was so heavenly
You meant the world to me
And anyone could see that I was so in love

I want to thank you for giving me
The most wonderful summer of my life
I never will forget
That summer day we met
You were so shy and yet you stole my heart away

We strolled along the sand
Walking hand in hand
Then you kissed me and I knew
That I would love you my whole life through

I want to thank you for giving me
The most wonderful summer of my life
And though it broke my heart
That day we had to part
I'll always thank you for giving me
The most wonderful summer of my life

Este amor que tu me has dado
amor que no esperaba
es aquel que yo soñe
va creciendo como el fuego
la verdad 
es que a tu lado 
es hermoso dar amor

Y es que tu amanda amante 
das la vida en un instante
sin pedir ningun favor
este amor siempre sincero
sin saber lo que es el miedo
no parece ser real
que me importa haber sufrido
si ya tengo lo mas bello
y me da felicidad
en un mundo tan ingrato
solo tu amada amante 
lo das todo por amor...

Wonderful Season Of Summer
Composer(s): Leslie Saunders

I love summer, I love summer
All the world comes alive in the summer
Summer's play time, holiday time
It's the fun in the sun, surf and spray time

There's no gloom now, all's in bloom now
'Round the world lovers look to the moon now
If a kiss is not missed, there's a reason (you see)
It's that wonderful season of summer!

Da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da
Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da

Da-da, aaah-aaah-aaah
Aaah-aaah-aaah-aaah
Da-da, aaah-aaah-aaah

I love summer, I love summer
All the world is a glow in the summer
It's a gay time, love's bouquet time
It's the theme of each dream born in May time
On a warm night, 'neath the stars bright
Lonely hearts come to meet in the moonlight
If a glance brings romance, there's a reason
It's that wonderful season of summer
Summer, summer!

Aaah-aaah!

Ama Lo Que Soy
Composer(s): Leslie Bricusse - Nacho Artime
Performer(s): Raphael



Yo suelo ver mi horizonte
A donde voy, por donde piso
Pero esta vez no veo el premio
Cual, no lo imagino
Y si el dolor me rompe en dos
No tendre si no tu amor
Sabes bien quien soy
Ama lo que soy

Mirame bien, mira en mis ojos
Dime si ves un enemigo
Fijate bien, te ves en ellos
Amor es el gran peligro
Mi amor por ti, tu amor por ti
El sueño sera verdad
Sabes bien quien soy
Ama lo que soy

Y aunque no se cumpla el deseo
Con nuestra vida haremos fuego
Dame tu amor, tu corazon
Y siempre unidos los dos
Sabes bien quien soy
Sabes bien quien soy
Toma lo que soy
Toma lo que soy
Ama lo que soy

........... that I love you so
Awake or sleeping
My hearts's in your keeping
And calling to you soft and low

My wonderful one
Whenever I'm dreaming
Love's lovelight a-gleaming I see
My wonderful one
How my arms ache to hold, dear
To cuddle and fold you to me

Just you, only you 
In the shadowy twilight
In silvery moonlight 
There's none like you, I adore you
My life I'll live for you,
Oh, my wonderful, wonderful one

Am Tag als der Regen kam, langersehnt, heißerfleht
auf die glühenden Felder, auf die durstigen Wälder
am Tag als der Regen kam, langersehnt, heißerfleht 
da erblühten die Bäume, da erwachten die Träume
da kamst du

Ich war allein im fremden Land
die Sonne hat die Erde verbrannt
überall nur Leid und Einsamkeit 
und du, ja du, so weit, so weit 
Doch eines Tages vom Süden her 
da zogen Wolken über das Meer 
und als endlich dann der Regen rann
fing auch für mich das Leben an, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja, ja

Am Tag als der Regen kam, langersehnt, heißerfleht
auf die glühenden Felder, auf die durstigen Wälder 
am Tag als der Regen kam, weit und breit, wundersam
als die Glocken erklangen, als von Liebe sie sangen 
da kamst du, da kamst du

Wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen
Friendly old girl of a town
'Neath her tavern light
On this merry night
Let us clink and drink one down
To wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen
Salty old queen of the sea
Once I sailed away
But I'm home today
Singing Copenhagen, wonderful, wonderful
Copenhagen for me

I sailed up the Skagerrak
And sailed down the Kattegat
Through the harbour and up to the quay
And there she stands waiting for me
With a welcome so warm and so gay
Wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen

Wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen
Friendly old girl of a town
'Neath her tavern light
On this merry night
Let us clink and drink one down
To wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen
Salty old queen of the sea
Once I sailed away
But I'm home today
Singing Copenhagen, wonderful, wonderful
Copenhagen for me

La pioggia dal cielo cadrà

A fiorire la vita 
A cantare la vita 
La pioggia dal cielo cadrà 
E con te 
Lei vedrà 
La più bella del mondo 
La più cara del mondo 
E quel di 

La pioggia quasi timida 
Nell'aria dolce-umida 
Lenta cadrà sui miei bei riccioli 
E pioverà, e pioverà 

Uniti in un sol papito 
Confusi in un sol fremito 
Ti perlero con tutta l'anima 
Ti bacero, ti bacero si 

La pioggia dal ciel cadrà 
E con lei tornerà 
A fiorire la vita 
A cantare la vita 
La pioggia dal ciel cadrà 
E con te 
Lei vedrà 
La più bella del mondo 
La più cara del mondo 
Lei vedrà, lei vedrà

Wonderful Baby
Composer(s): Don McLean
Performer(s): Don McLean



Wonderful baby, livin' on love
The sandman says maybe he'll take you above
Up where the girls fly on ribbons and bows
Where babies float by just counting their toes

Wonderful baby, nothin' but new
The world has gone crazy, I'm glad I'm not you
At the beginning, or is it the end
It goes in and comes out and start over again

Wonderful baby, livin' on love
The sandman says maybe he'll take you above
Up where the girls fly on ribbons and bows
Where babies float by just counting their toes

Wonderful baby, I'll watch while you grow
If I knew the future you'd be first to know
But I don't know nothin' of what life's about
Just as long as you live you never find out

Wonderful baby, nothin' to fear
Love whom you will but doubt what you hear
They'll whisper sweet thing and make you untrue
So be good to yourself, that's all you can do

You're a wonderful baby, livin' on love
The sandman says maybe he'll take you above
Up where the girls fly on ribbons and bows
Where babies float by just counting their toes
