Mirror In The Bathroom Composer(s): Roger Charlery; Andy Cox; Everett Morton; Dave Steele; Dave Wakeling Performer(s): The English Beat and various other artists
Mirror in the bathroom please talk free The door is locked just you and me Can I take you to a restaurant that's got glass tables You can watch yourself while you are eating
Mirror in the bathroom I just can't stop it Every Saturday you see me window shopping Find no interest in the racks and shelves Just ten thousand reflections of my own sweet self, self, self...
Mirror in the bathroom You're my mirror in the bathroom You're my mirror in the bathroom You're my mirror in the bathroom...
Mirror in the bathroom Recompense For all my crimes of self defense Cures you whisper make no sense Drift gently into mental illness
Mirror in the bathroom please talk free The door is locked just you and me Can I take you to a restaurant that's got glass tables You can watch yourself while you are eating
Over The Green Hills Composer(s): Paul Rodgers Performer(s): Free
Part 1
Over the green hills and into the sun that's where I feel I ought to be goin' blue sky above me and green earth below don't even matter which way I go Yeah! Ah ah ah ah Ah ah ah ah
The trees hold their arms out to catch what life gives but the people try to snatch all there is they can have all I own I don't need anything I'll just follow the river, and see what it brings Ah ah ah ah ah Ah ah ah ah ah ah
----------
Part 2
AH ah ah ah ah AH ah ah ah ah I need to be free where the air is clean and the sparking river is cool on my skin
When the sun shines I'll follow it's glow And I won't stop moving till it's sinking low Ah ah ah ah ah

Amar amar amante puedo De amor amado amante quiero Amadamente amor amado y solo amar Amar amar amarte y luego Amante se que quiero Amadamente amor amado y solo amar...
Over My Head Composer(s): Christine McVie Performer(s): Fleetwood Mac
You can take me to paradise And then again you can be cold as ice I'm over my head But it sure feels nice
You can take me anytime you like I'll be around if you think you might Love me baby And hold me tight Your mood is like a circus wheel You're changing all the time Sometimes I can't help but feel That I'm wasting all of my time
Think I'm looking on the dark side But everyday you hurt my pride I'm over my head But it sure feels nice I'm over my head But it sure feels nice
Mirándonos Los Dos Composer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute
Nos va ocupando una incipiente indiferencia que levanta su voz en silencio precoz avisando que el fantasma del tiempo no vive en la edad sino en la soledad esa prisión donde envejece el corazón Y así es la mismo la noche y el día la cumbre, el abismo la melancolía y el llanto de amor ese espejo de Dios que se empañó, mirándonos los dos Siento que el alma desvaneciendo en nuestros cuerpos lejos de resistir se dispone a morir en la calma Y esa muerte que nadie podrá detener no dejará de ser un paso más ese otro que quedó detrás Y así es lo mismo... La cobardía que nos esposa el uno al otro provocando el temor de afrontar el error que nos guía es la herida que deja el sentido común ese residuo aún de insensatez que nos conduce a la vejez Y así es lo mismo...

Mirage Composer(s): Ritchie Cordell Originally performed by: Tommy James & The Shondells
I see you standin' in the alleys and the hallways, you're gone now I run to touch you but you vanished through the doorways And oh how hard it is to live without you! I loved everything about you. Now I know you're really gone But my imagination is so strong that
I see you coming into view And your face is telling me that you Oh, yeah, oh, wanna be by my side Oh, yeah, oh, now it's finally time Mirage, that's all you are to me Mirage, something I only see
So I keep walkin' through the alleys and the hallways Where are you? I keep remembering the kissin' in the doorways, the car, too How it all comes back to me The movies every Saturday, the place we used to go to eat I want so much to have it like it used to be then
I see you coming into view And your face is telling me that you Oh, yeah, oh, wanna be by my side Oh, yeah, oh, now it's finally time Mirage, that's all you are to me Mirage, something I only see
Just a mirage, that's all you are to me, yes Just a mirage, something that I only see (repeat)

On ne vit pas sans se dire adieu On ne vit pas sans mourir un peu Sans abandonner pour aller plus loin Sur son chemin quelque chose ou quelqu'un
Je suis venu pour te dire adieu Un souvenir, meurt toujours un peu J'ai voulu savoir, ce qu'il m'a resté Du seul amour, qui ait pu compté
Je suis venu pour te dire adieu Ou si tu veux, adieu à nous deux Comme le jour, où tu m'as fait pleuré En me disant adieu à jamais
Oh ce n'était pas ta faute, je le sais Je sais tout ce qu'il allait se passer, allez Ton père et tout ce qu'il a pu te dire Tes études à finir, ton service, ton avenir Et puis cette fille n'est pas pour toi Aujourd'hui tu es une autre Tout est qui finit bien, quand Mais qu'est-ce que j'ai pu t'aimer toi J'avais seize ans, seize ans
On ne vit pas sans se dire adieu On ne vit pas sans mourir un peu J'ai voulu arrêter le temps Le temps de dire, adieu mes seize ans
J'ai voulu dire, adieu mes seize ans Avant d'aller, vers ce qui m'attend

Ouvre-Moi La Porte Composer(s): J. Demarny; E. Angulo Macias Performer(s): Enrico Macias
{Refrain:} Ouvre-moi la porte toi qui as la clef De la grande école du monde Ce n'est pas facile de te faire entrer Mais je vais quand même essayer
Tu devras d'abord choisir un bon métier Et le faire avec passion Vivre avec les gens, apprendre à les aimer Sans te faire trop d'illusions Protéger la vie de l'arbre et du ruisseau Te faire des amis parmi les animaux Vivre dans l'espoir et chanter quand il pleut Alors tu seras heureux
{Refrain}
Tu seras soldat non pas pour faire la guerre Du moins j'ose l'espérer Quand tu t'en iras, je suis sûr que ta mère Se cachera pour pleurer Tu découvriras qu'il y a sur la terre Deux hommes sur trois qui sont dans la misère Libre de partir, tu verras mon petit Que rien ne vaut ton pays
{Refrain}
A tous les instants il te faudra choisir Entre le bien et le mal Tu auras souvent l'occasion de souffrir Et d'oublier c'est normal Alors c'est l'amour que tu rencontreras Ce sont des beaux jours tu sais que ces jours-là Et puis un enfant qui te fera vieillir Tendrement viendra te dire
Miracle Of Love Composer(s): Bob Merrill Performer(s): Eileen Rodgers
A whippoorwill awakens And she tells the golden morn That while the world was sleeping Some new whippoorwills were born Showing the lark and the dove Another miracle of love A bee begins a buzzin' Makin' honey out of dew And roses by the dozen Bloom where flowers never grew Warmed by the sun from above Another miracle of love Yes, I believe in miracles That miracles come true Dear, I believe in miracles Just look at me and you Two strangers in the morning Then two friends this afternoon Now strangers in the morning Are two sweethearts 'neath the moon Close as a hand in a glove Another miracle of love
Ouverts Ou Fermés Composer(s): Françoise Hardy; Orchs Performer(s): Françoise Hardy
Ouverts ou fermés mes yeux ne voient que toi vide ou occupée ma tête ne pense qu'à toi
à vivre prisonnier mon cur n'aime que toi seule à en pleurer car je ne veux que toi
ouverts ou fermés tes yeux ne me voient pas vide plus qu'occupée ta tête ne pense pas insouciant, léger ton cur s'en vient, s'en va trop sollicité qu'as-tu à faire de moi?
et qu'ai-je à faire de tout si c'est pour moi tout ça et qu'ai-je fait de tout si ce n'est pas pour nous?
tu dois t'en douter mais au fond, tu t'en fous ouverts ou fermés mes yeux ne voient partout qu'à vivre prisonnier mon cur devenu fou cherche sans trouver quelqu'un qui te ressemble

Cómo has caído, Luis, si tú eres un sentimental Serán los malos rollos de la edad No te lo pienses dos veces... Seguro que tu Elisa Es oro puro, macizo y legal molan sus ojos verdes no es cachondeo que son como el mar Lo que sucede es que aunque tenga un jopo a lo Mae West no es fácil que sigamos siendo tres Tu sabrás lo que haces Yo ahora me voy con Charlie al Alphaville que reponen "la huída" la de Sam Peckinpah con Steve McQueen Probablemente luego iremos, a eso de las 10 A ver al Aute que hay nuevo Lp" No te lo pienses dos veces...
