Ayer La Vi Composer(s): Javier Sanchez Performer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto
Ayer la vi paseando por corrientes gastaba la vereda con su andar mezcla de Chaplin y Mariline Monroe mezcla de inocencia y fatalidad los ojos vidrio rojo, la cara marfil los cables conectados con el alma amores de una cuadra de inutiles promesas al pasar desparramando sexo al caminar Fantastico arlequin de media risa desojando la voz para el que quiera canta su delirio, como Malena si se pone triste con el alcohol cuando sale a la arena se ilumina de estrellas gimiendo enloquecida entre las luces se fuma se compone, se pinta de el derecho y del reves para pisar las tablas otra vez Ensonación de raso y lentejuelas de frula de champagne, de flores nuevas en una piecita de Avellaneda canta un blues a duo con el Wincofon comer todos los dias, no es cosa regalada cuando es de siete dias la semana hay que ganarse el mango se aguanta y la rebusca con los pies vendiendo enciclopedias de frances Ayer la vi paseando ...

I know that I can't keep her Now she's in love with you But I just wanna say I won't be far away So don't make my baby blue
I know your reputation They say you can't be true So I'll be standing by And you just better try Not to make my baby blue
My little girl, she's always been an angel And it hurts me so bad to set her free You better take good care of her She still means all the world to me You know she does
I'm gonna step aside now Just like she wants me to But even though I'm gone I'll still be looking on You better not make my baby blue She's been a good baby

Me aburre estar en la ciudad, me largo pa' Paris Hmmmmm Y mi costilla va a comprar seis casas en Capri Hmmmmm A mí, el doctor me recetó las playas de Biarritz Hmmmmm Ay, que gran felicidad
Rojas: Un cuartito en que de el sol Una mesa y un colchón Un gran, un gran sillón Ay, que gran felicidad
'chos bombones pa' masticar 'chos maderos pa' quemar Comer, dormir, cantar Ay, que gran felicidad
Sin un golpe durante el día absolutamente dar Ande yo caliente y que la gente se ría, Ja!
Una frente a acariciar Alguien dulce a quien amar Que cuide bien de mí Y yo felíz, con ser felíz Muy felíz, tan felíz Tan felíz, muy felíz Tan felíz, muy felíz

Eres una dulce espina eres sal en una herida eres esa eterna hoguera que siempre me quema ¡ay amor!, ¡ay amor! Eres un inmenso cielo pero con un sol pequeño eres como un caramelo de dulce veneno ¡ay amor!, ¡ay amor!...¡Ay amor! Te ríes de un diablo como yo que compras por la piel de una mujer me robas la sonrisa, y hasta la razón ¡ay amor!, ¡ay amor! Eres una dulce espina eres sal en una herida eres esa eterna hoguera que siempre me quema ¡ay amor!, ¡ay amor! Eres un inmenso cielo pero con un sol pequeño eres como un caramelo de dulce veneno ¡ay amor!, ¡ay amor!...¡Ay amor!
Don't Make Me Go To Bed And I'll Be Good
Composer(s): Hugh Cross
Performer(s): Roy Acuff
and multiple other artists
A laughing baby boy one evening in his play
Disturbed the household with his noisy glee
I warned him to be quiet but he soon would disobey
For he would soon forget a word from me
I called him to my side and said, "Now son you go to bed
Your conduct has been very, very rude"
With quivering lips and tear filled eyes he pleaded then with me
"Don't Make Me Go To Bed And I'll Be Good"
Don't Papa and I'll be good
Don't Papa and I'll be good"
That's what I heard him say and it haunts me night and day
"Don't Make Me Go To Bed And I'll Be Good"
Our lives have just been gladdened by his bright ascending beam
Our boy now in our hearts was very dear
We hastened to his bed one night he was talking in his sleep
He didn't seem to know that we were near
I took him in my arms and found his body "raked" with pain
To ease the pain we did the best we could
It broke my heart to hear him cryin' loudly in his sleep
"Don't Make Me Go To Bed And I'll Be Good"
All night and day we watched and prayed, we never left his side
To give him up it seemed we never could
It broke my heart to hear him crying just before he died
"Don't Make Me Go To Bed And I'll Be Good"
Don't Papa and I'll be good
Don't Papa and I'll be good"
That's what I heard him say and it haunts me night and day
"Don't Make Me Go To Bed And I'll Be Good"
Don't Lose My Number
Composer(s): Phil Collins
Performer(s): Phil Collins
and multiple other artists
There came a night leaving fear behind shadows are on the ground And nobody knew where to find him, no evidence was found I'm never coming back, I heard him cry, and I believe him He never meant to do anything wrong, it's gonna get worse if he waits too long
Chorus: Now Billy, Billy don't you lose my number 'Cos you're not anywhere that I can find you Oh now Billy, Billy don't you lose my number 'Cos you're not anywhere that I can find you, oh
Searchin' through the day and into the night They wouldn't stop until they found him They didn't know him and they didn't understand, nobody asked him why "Get out of my way", I heard a shout, then a blinding light All I could see was him running down the street Out of the shadows and into the night
Chorus
Don't give up, keep running, keep hiding Now don't give up, oh Billy, if you know you're right Don't give up, 'cos you know that I am on your side Don't give up, oh Billy You better, you better, you better run for your life
Chorus
There came a night leaving fear behind, shadows are on the ground Nobody knew where to find him, no evidence was found I'm never coming back, I heard him cry, and I believe him He never meant to do anything wrong, it's gonna get worse if he waits too long
Chorus
Billy, Billy don't you lose my number 'Cos you're not anywhere that I can find you, oh Billy
Don't Lose Heart
Composer(s): Ron Dante - Bob Merrill
Performer(s): Ron Dante
If you feel lost
Searching for someone like I do
Someday I'll find you
Don't lose heart
Each day I pray
Pray for the day that you're near me
Though you don't hear me
No you don't hear me
Don't lose faith
And don't lose heart
Wait for fate
To play its part
Don't lose heart
And if you feel
You've lost your way
Leave all that
To yesterday
Don't lose heart
Just when you've seen
Shadows and clouds overtake you
The sun'll break through
Yes the sun'll break through
Don't lose faith
And don't lose heart
Wait for fate
To play its part
Don't lose heart
And if you feel
You've lost your way
Leave all that
To yesterday
Don't lose heart
Every lie we've heard
From some past lovers
Made us ready and ripe
Ready and ripe to love another
Don't lose faith
And don't lose heart
Wait for fate
To play its part
Don't lose heart
And if you feel
You've lost your way
Leave all that
To yesterday
Don't lose heart
Don't Lose Heart Composer(s): Dan Fogelberg Performer(s): Dan Fogelberg
"This life is heartless and it's rarely just Full of sad betrayals and misplaced trust And it can suck your spirit just as dry as dust And steel your soul if you let it Oh, every life contains its sorrows and pains Its stormy weather and its rough terrains You watch me wrestle with my length of chain And smile so bravely as you tell me
Don't lose heart Don't lose heart Though it feels like yours will fall apart Just remember when the road gets dark I will always be beside you
I've spent my life pursuing fortune and fame Chasing rainbows in a shadow game And I'm not sure what I've lost is worth the gain Or why my soul remains so restless
You've seen me stumble, Lord, you've seen me fall You've shared my triumphs and you've seen me crawl And when I think that I could lose it all You give me courage and you tell me
Don't lose heart Don't lose heart Though it feels like yours will fall apart Just remember when the road gets dark I will always be beside you"
Don't Look Now But My Heart Is Showing Composer(s): Ogden Nash - Kurt Weill Performer(s): Dick Haymes, Eileen Wilson, Olga San Juan
If this bliss is love Why didnt somebody tell me
Dont look now but my heart is showing No matter what I say or do Cant hide it, my hearts Romeo-ing I cant stay away from you You smile and my dreams start hallo-ing They spin when you come into view In circles, I may not be going But I feel I reel with you
When mister kisses miss, no need for words to embroider When mister kisses miss, changing her name is in order You smile, and the stardust is glowing Were whirling in a world thats new Dont look now but your heart is showing And it flips and halts and turns somersaults Darling, it wants to waltz with you
Dont ask me but here is my answer I think that youre magically he Who could be a love necromancer Neck-romancing is for me Dont stop me but I am replying I know that youre magically she The preacher would like to be tying As you coo I do with me Around, round and round Im just like a record thats playing Repeating the same sound The needle must like what Im saying These wings that I feel I am growing Belong to someone I never knew Dont look now but heaven is showing And tonight the sky is my sky to fly Darling, falling in love Falling in love with you
Aie je l'aime Aie Aie Aie je l'aime Qu'il m'enlace, qu'il m'embrasse Qu'il me frappe ou bien me chasse S'il me rappelle tout à coup Tout s'efface et tête basse Je reviens car quoi qu'il fasse
Parfois sans rien dire Pendant de longs mois Nul ne sait pourquoi Il disparaît mais il revient Devant son sourire Moi le voyant là Je reste sans force et je ne lui demande rien Dans ses mains mon coeur n'est plus qu'un jeu L'animal fait de moi ce qu'il veut
Aie je l'aime Aie Aie Aie je l'aime Il rAieonne, je frissonne Pourtant si je le questionne Il met sa joue contre ma joue Il marmonne et je pardonne A quoi bon que je m'illusionne Aie Aie Aie je l'aime et puis c'est tout
Il aime bien vivre Dormir au soleil Et dit en riant que le travail est pour les fous Et quand il s'enivre C'est toujours pareil Il est si heureux qu'il chante, danse et casse tout Il prétend qu'il est riche à millions Sa fortune est faite d'illusions
Mais je l'aime Aie Aie Aie je l'aime Il sait faire pour me plaire Des choses extraordinaires Et sachant qu'il est un peu fou Je tolères ses manières Car je ne puis me refaire Aie Aie Aie je l'aime et puis c'est tout
Don't Look Now (But Your Broken Heart Is Showing) Composer(s): Ernest Tubb Performer(s): Ernest Tubb; Hank Thompson
He left you flat and crying too the way that you left me Just when you thought you had things your way And now I guess you know my Dear what it means to be blue For consolation hears all I can say
Don't Look Now, But Your Broken Heart Is Showin That smile upon your face can not fool me Youre to blame if I have a way of knowin That within your heart theres only misery
'Cause youre the one that left me deep in sorrow Without a soul to tell my troubles to So Don't Look Now, But Your Broken Heart Is Showin And to me to me it sure looks good on you
Ah come in Jimmie
'Cause youre the one that left me deep in sorrow Without a soul to tell my troubles to So Don't Look Now, But Your Broken Heart Is Showin And to me to me it sure looks good on you
Ay de Ti, Ay de Mí Composer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute
Y yo que estaba de vuelta de todas las idas con el cima herida te quiero, ya ves Seré lo que tú prefieras tu luz o tu sombra o acaso una alfombra besando tus pies Ay de ti, ay de mí ni tú ni yo somos culpables infelices locos que caímos en este amor que es un error imperdonable ay de ti, ay de mí Y tú que siempre decías ser inteligente no como esa gente que muere de amor Así sabrás que la rosa es rosa por bella y no porque en ella respire una flor... Ay de ti, ay de mi.. la vida es la consentida, feroz dictadura de una criatura que juega a mandar Ni tú ni yo somos nadie, ni hacemos historia pues somos la escoria que aun puede quemar Ay de ti, ay de mí...
Don't Look Now (It Ain't You Or Me) Composer(s): John C. Fogerty First release by: Creedence Clearwater Revival - 1969
Who will take the coal from the mine? Who will take the salt from the earth? Who'll take a leaf and grow it to a tree? Don't Look Now, it ain't you or me Who will work the field with his hands? Who will put his back to the plough? Who'll take the mountain and give it to the sea? Don't Look Now, it ain't you or me
Don't Look Now, someone's done your starvin' Don't Look Now, someone's done your prayin' too
Who will make the shoes for your feet? Who will make the clothes that you wear? Who'll take the promise that you don't have to keep? Don't Look Now, it ain't you or me
Don't Look Now, someone's done your starvin' Don't Look Now, someone's done your prayin' too
Who will take the coal from the mines? Who will take the salt from the earth? Who'll take the promise that you don't have to keep? Don't Look Now, it ain't you or me

Ay Catamarca, madre del canto por estas venas arde tu sol por estas venas arde tu sol Ay Catamarca, cómo soñaban los ojos míos poderte ver poderte ver...

Ay Catamarca, ay Catamarca catamarqueño debiera ser catamarqueño debiera ser catamarqueño debiera ser...
Don't Look In My Eyes
Composer(s): Brian Potter - Frank Wildhorn
Performer(s): Kenny Rogers
All my memory is safely packed And my dreams are neatly folded away Ive got nothing to show To a love that might have told okay All the tables and chairs Theyre standing empty and bare And there isnt any sign You were here So jsut walk out of the door Try not to get too near
You might look in my eyes And see all the pain And sadness deep inside Dont look in my eyes Thats where I keep the tears I cant hide If youve just gone, itll be alright I know Ill get through the night And I even smile As we say our goodbyes Just dont look in my eyes
All our photographs are stored away And our letters are there burned in the fire Theres nothing left here That make me believer We had nights of tender love and desire If this seems to be gray Id like to hide away Theres nothing to remind me of you When you walk out of the door Just be sure whatever you do
Dont look in my eyes And see all the pains And sadness deep inside Dont look in my eyes Thats where I keep the tears I cant hide If youve just gone, itll be alright I know Ill make it through the night And I even smile As we say our goodbyes Just dont look in my eyes
