Amor De Amantes Composer(s): J.M. Gallardo Performer(s): Miguel Gallardo
Cada tarde, te vas sola con un beso y el adiós de mi sonrisa yo me quedo, algo triste mientras pienso en tu última caricia y la vida, continua siendo libres, tu y yo Pero este amor, lleno de vida no nos aburre, ni nos separa nunca a los dos Pero este amor, amor de amantes mantiene alerta cada segundo el corazón Cada tarde, tú regresas y al mirarnos se nos curan las heridas nos amamos, libremente entregando lo mejor de nuestras vidas y en silencio, pasa el tiempo que nos vuelve a buscar Pero este amor, nunca nos ata para que nunca por la rutina pueda acabar Pero este amor, amor de amantes no nos da tregua y nos obliga siempre a luchar Pero este amor, nunca nos ata para que nunca por la rutina pueda acabar Pero este amor, amor de amantes no nos da tregua y nos obliga siempre a luchar

Daddy's Hands
Composer(s): Holly Dunn - Chris Waters
Performer(s): Holly Dunn
and multiple other artists
I remember daddy's hands folded silently in prayer And reachin' out to hold me, when I had a nightmare You could read quite a story in the callous' and lines Years of work and worry had left their mark behind
I remember daddy's hands how they held my mama tight And patted my back for something done right There are things that I'd forgotten that I loved about the man But I'll always remember the love in daddy's hands
Daddy's hands were soft and kind when I was cryin' Daddy's hands were hard as steel when I'd done wrong Daddy's hands weren't always gentle but I've come to understand There was always love in daddy's hands.
I remember daddy's hands workin' 'til they bled Sacrifised unselfishly just to keep us all fed If I could do things over, I'd live my life again And never take for granted the love in daddy's hands
Daddy's hands were soft and kind when I was cryin' Daddy's hands were hard as steel when I'd done wrong Daddy's hands weren't always gentle but I've come to understand There was always love in daddy's hands.
Daddy's hands were soft and kind when I was cryin' Daddy's hands were hard as steel when I'd done wrong Daddy's hands weren't always gentle but I've come to understand There was always love in daddy's hands
Amor Composer(s): Mendez - Ruiz - Skylar Performer(s): Bing Crosby and multiple other artists
Amor, amor, amor This word so sweet, that I repeat, means I adore you Amor, amor, my love Would you deny this heart that I have placed before you
I can't find another word with meaning so clear My lips try to whisper sweeter things in your ear But somehow or other nothing sounds quite so dear As this soft caressing word I know
Amor, amor, my love When you're away there is no day and nights are lonely Amor, amor, my love Make life divine, say you'll be mine and love me only
I can't find another word with meaning so clear My lips try to whisper sweeter things in your ear But somehow or other nothing sounds quite so dear As this soft caressing word I know
Daddy's Girl
Composer(s): Glen Martin
Performer(s): Red Sovine
I recall the night that you came into this world
I couldn't believe the doctor when he said, "It's a little girl"
I said, "Now Doc, you must be wrong
You see I want a boy"
Then he laid you in my arms and my heart sang with joy
(Daddy's Girl, Daddy's Girl)
(I'm the center of Daddy's world)
(I know I'm Daddy's number one)
(For he loves me like I was his son)
(Daddy's Girl)
I recall the day I took you to a baseball game
You brought along your baby doll and half its baby things
We sat there a-playin' house, while the Dodgers played the Braves
And ev'ryone in the bleachers looked at us as if to say
(Daddy's Girl, Daddy's Girl)
(I'm the center of Daddy's world)
(I know I'm Daddy's number one)
(For he loves me like I was his son)
(Daddy's Girl)
I recall the day I took you on a fishin' trip
You said, "Daddy won't that hook hurt the fishes' lip?"
And you said,"If they don't get air, those things in the can will die"
So we turned the worms a-loose and chased some butterflies
(Daddy's Girl, Daddy's Girl)
(I'm the center of Daddy's world)
(I know I'm Daddy's number one)
(For he loves me like I was his son)
(Daddy's Girl)
I recall the day that your young man come to call
Seems like only yesterday we swam and played football
But I know the time has come, that I must set you free
But no matter where you are, you know what you are to me
(Daddy's Girl, Daddy's Girl)
(I'm the center of Daddy's world)
(I know I'm Daddy's number one)
(For he loves me like I was his son)
(Daddy's Girl)
(Daddy's Girl, Daddy's Girl)...
Amongst Butterflies Composer(s): Paul Weller First release by: Paul Weller - 1992
The sunny sand we ran along Everyday began upon The summers kiss of love and adventure And every June that we fell into Left a mark upon us too Etched forever as a moment wed remember And wed remember The empty woods where we played Every hour of every day The holidays went on forever
And in the woods was a soldiers tomb The ghost of which looked over you And God was there amongst the trees We felt his whisper as the summers breeze And every night and every day I learnt to love it in a special way As I remember What its like to walk amongst butterflies

Daddy Don't You Walk So Fast
Composer(s): Peter Callander - Geoff Stephens
Performer(s): Wayne Newton
and multiple other artists
The love between the two of us was dyin' And it got so bad I knew I had to leave But halfway down that highway, when I turned around I saw my little daughter running after me, crying
Daddy, don't you walk so fast, daddy don't you walk so fast Daddy, slow down some, 'cause you're making me run Daddy, don't you walk so fast
If only for the sake of my sweet daughter I just had to turn back home right there and then And try to start a new life With the mother of my child I couldn't bear to hear those words again
Daddy, don't you walk so fast, daddy don't you walk so fast Daddy, slow down some, 'cause you're making me run Daddy, don't you walk so fast
It broke my heart to tell my little daughter That her daddy had to run to catch a train She had no way of knowing that I was leaving home for good I turned around and there she was again, crying
Daddy, don't you walk so fast, daddy don't you walk so fast Daddy, slow down some, 'cause you're making me run Daddy, don't you walk so fast
Amo tu pelo alborotado Que huele a tierra y huele a mar Y al viento pues ha logrado Tu peinado desatar Amo a la tarde de verano Tu pequeño corazón Cuando se escapa de mi mano Como alegre gorrión Amo la luz de tu mirada Amo tus labios de clavel, Amo mi vida más que nada La caricia de tu piel Amo que tu sombra y la mía Parezcan un solo ser Frente al borde de la bahía Roja ya de atardecer Amo tu risa, también tu llanto No sé por qué pero es así Nadie en la vida quiso tanto Como yo te quiero a ti

Composer(s): Shel Silverstein
Performer(s): Bobby Bare & Bobby Bare Jr.
and multiple other artists
BB: I'd like to introduce you to the next superstar Twenty years from now he's gonna be so ashamed of what he has done on this record that he's probably gonna sue me And he and all of his friends are gonna be sitting around stoned and he'll say, "Look what the old man made me do!" Let's give a big round of applause for Bobby Bare Jr.
Junior: Daddy, what if the sun stopped shining? What would happen then?
BB: If the sun stopped shining, you'd be so surprised You'd stare at the heavens with wide open eyes And the wind would carry your light to the skies And the sun would start shining again
Junior: But, Daddy, what if the wind stopped blowing? What would happen then?
BB: If the wind stopped blowing, then the land would be dry And your boat wouldn't sail and, son, your kite couldn't fly And the grass would see your trouble and she'd tell the wind And the wind would start blowing again
Junior: But, Daddy, what if the grass stopped growing? What would happen then?
BB: Well, if the grass stopped growing you'd probably cry And the ground would be watered by the tears from your eyes And like your love for me, that grass would grow so high Yes, the grass would start growing again
Junior: But, Daddy, what if I stopped loving you? What would happen then?
BB: If you stopped loving me, then the grass would stop growing The sun would stop shining and the wind would stop blowing So you see, if you wanna keep this old world a-going You'd better start loving me again, again You better start loving me again You hear me, Bobby?
Both: You better start loving me again You love me, Bobby? Yes You better start loving me again

When you hit me on the head with your beer bottle Something in my chemistry changed And though I've already decided to forgive you My friends think I'm permanently deranged
When I wake up try to put these things together Of all the lovin' times that we did have I get static in my ears and a hazy picture And I hear your voice inside begin to laugh
I hope that it's only amnesia Believe me I'm sick but not insane Yeah, I hope that it's only amnesia My friends they don't look at me the same
Sometimes I feel o.k. but when I talk I stutter I can't remember back a few minutes ago The doctors all come up with the same answer Boy if I'm that far gone there's no where else to go
I hope that it's only amnesia Believe me I'm sick but not insane Yeah, I hope that it's only amnesia My friends they don't look at me the same
I hope that it's only amnesia Believe me I'm sick but not insane Yeah, I hope that it's only amnesia My friends they don't look at me the same
I hope that it's only amnesia Believe me I'm sick but not insane Yeah, I hope that it's only amnesia My friends they don't look at me the same
