Alguna vez ocurre que nunca amanece y la noche se queda enganchada a mi colchón la increpo: ¡fuera, noche desaparece! y ella, impávida, sigue en sus trece "¡quiero pasión!" Y van pasando noches por dentro y por fuera y ella crece y se crece y engorda como un balón... Le pongo tres cerrojos a la nevera y me voy al sofá que me esperea en el salón Terca noche, terca noche no me conviertas en un avestruz terca noche, terca noche deja que vea algún rayo de luz... Y mi obsesiva amante va y se desparrama... y desborda la cama e inunda todo el salón... Y cuando me descubre se me encarama y su mano me viola y derrama consolación... Y así, noche tras noche su espacio me escora no me queda ni un metro cuadrado salgo al balcón... Y la noche de afuera mira la hora... y la noche de adentro devora mi corazón Terca noche, terca noche...

I sing to you ma jeune fille a sense of main is deep in me I hope you like the sound of my musique I saw you pass by on the walk ink in and find the words to talk so I will turn my feelings on musique
I give you des chansons d'amour from ancient worlds and old folklore with memories and sound of my musique Just walk beside me hand in hand to my mediterranean land listen to the voice of my musique
I saw you smile inside and clear my way your eyes reflecting sunlight in my heart you look so happy, girlfriend, and so gay so closed to me and yet so far apart I felt if I could take your hand that you were dreamy, understand the reason I sing ma chanson d'amour
Green Fields Composer(s): Terry Gilkyson; Richard Dehr; Frank Miller Performer(s): The Brothers Four; and various other artists
Once there were green fields kissed by the sun Once there were valleys where rivers used to run Once there were blue skies with white clouds high above Once they were part of an everlasting love We were the lovers who strolled through green fields
Green fields are gone now, parched by the sun Gone from the valleys where rivers used to run Gone with the cold wind that swept into my heart Gone with the lovers who let their dreams depart Where are the green fields that we used to roam?
I'll never know what made you run away How can I keep searching when dark clouds hide the day I only know there's nothing here for me Nothing in this wide world, left for me to see
Still I'll keep on waiting until you return I'll keep on waiting until the day you learn You can't be happy while your heart's on the roam You can't be happy until you bring it home Home to the green fields and me once again
Tequila Sunrise Composer(s): Glenn Frey - Don Henley First release by: Eagles - 1973 Covered by multiple other artists
It's another tequila sunrise Starin' slowly 'cross the sky, said goodbye He was just a hired hand Workin' on the dreams he planned to try The days go by
Ev'ry night when the sun goes down Just another lonely boy in town And she's out runnin' 'round
She wasn't just another woman And I couldn't keep from comin' on It's been so long Oh, and it's a hollow feelin' when It comes down to dealin' friends It never ends
Take another shot of courage Wonder why the right words never come You just get numb It's another tequila sunrise,this old world still looks the same Another frame, mm...

and multiple other artists
Well, Green Eyes with their soft lights Your eyes that promise sweet nights Bring to my soul a longing, a thirst for love divine In dreams I seem to hold you, to find you and enfold you Our lips meet and our hearts, too, with a thrill so sublime
Those cool and limpid Green Eyes A pool wherein my love lies So deep that in my searching for happiness I fear that they will ever haunt me All through my life they'll taunt me But will they ever want me? Green Eyes, make my dreams come true
Well, Green Eyes with the soft lights And eyes that promise sweet nights Bring to my soul a longing, a thirst for love divine In dreams I seem to hold you, to find you and enfold you Our lips meet and our hearts, too, with a thrill so sublime

Tequila Sheila Composer(s): Mac Davis - Shel Silverstein Performer(s): Bobby Bear; Bob Gibson

Kom Uit De Bedstee Mijn Liefste Composer(s): Peter Koelewijn; E. Andersen Performer(s): Egbert Douwe
Kom uit de bedstee mijn liefste Weet je niet je bent al veel te laat Het hele dorp is al komen kijken Naar de bruidegom die in zijn hemdje staat
Kom uit de bedstee mijn liefste t is vandaag toch onze huwelijksdag De koster luid al uren lang de klokken Hij zweet zich rot en de kippen zijn van slag
De kerk zit al een tijdje vol familie De orgelist die speelt zijn vingers blauw De kachel van de kerk is ook bezweken En ieder zit te barsten van de kou
De misdienaartjes worden zo ballorig Ik zag er eentje met een pijl en boog Ze speelden indiaantje op de kansel En je moeder kreeg een pijltje in der oog
Kom uit de bedstee mijn liefste De hele zaak loopt vreselijk uit de hand Voor een tientje gaven de getuigen Een interviewtje aan de ochtendkrant
De taxi-jongens wilden geld van vader Ze gingen want de bruid kwam niet in zicht Uiteindelijk is alles nog geregeld Alleen zit vaders rechteroog nu dicht
De koster zei heel hijgend onder 't luiden Waar blijft ze nou zo gaat toch alles mis De zaak moet rond zijn over tien minuten Want buiten wacht weer een begrafenis
Kom uit de bedstee mijn liefste We hebben nu al lang genoeg gewacht Er komt nog tijd genoeg om uit te slapen Want na vandaag komt er een lange nacht
Teorema Composer(s): José Luis Perales - Miguel Bosé Performer(s): Miguel Bosé
Que difícil es hablar de amor sin caer en la definición sin poder evitar ser pedante o vulgar señora que quiere de mi? Ahora bien por mi no pasa de hoy lo que le quiero después de tanto ensayar pero me empieza a mirar se me hace un nudo en la voz me lo hecha todo a perder me falta valor Señora es usted un teorema de amor un punto de luz del infinito al dolor y yo, yo no se que soy Hay que trabajar, hay que crecer por la noche tengo que estudiar y no puedo dormir por que pienso en usted señora q quiere de mi Míreme y deje ya de jugar que no le voy a pedir lo que quiere contar me basta verla llegar cada mañana puntual y aunque no me hable yo se que viene por mi Señora es usted un teorema de amor un punto de luz del infinito al dolor y yo solo se que usted es para mi un teorema de amor un punto de luz del infinito al dolor y yo, yo no se que soy...

My Prayer Composer(s): Georges Boulanger; Jimmy Kennedy Originally performed by: Glenn Miller Covered by various other artists
My prayer is to linger with you At the end of the day In a dream that's devine
My prayer is a rapture in blue With a world far away And your lips close to mine Tonight while our hearts are aglow Oh tell me the words that I'm longing to know
My prayer and the answer you give May they still be the same For as long as we live That you'll always be there At the end of my prayer
My prayer is to linger with you At the end of each day In a dream that's devine
My prayer is a rapture in blue With a world far away And your lips close to mine Tonight while our hearts are aglow Oh tell me the words that I'm longing to know
My prayer and the answer you give May they still be the same For as long as we live That you'll always be there At the end of my prayer
Green Door Composer(s): Bob Davie; Marvin Moore Performer(s): Shakin' Stevens; and various other artists
Midnight One more night without sleepin' Uuh, Watchin' Till that mornin' comes creepin' Green door What's that secret you're keepin'?
There's an old piano and they play it hot Behind the Green Door (Green Door) Don't know what they're doin' but they laugh a lot Behind the gren door! (Green Door) Wish they'd let me in so I could find out What's behind the Green Door! (Green Door)
Knocked once Tried to tell them I'd been there Door slammed! Hospitality's thin there Wonder Just what's going on in there
Saw an eyeball peepin' through a smoky cloud Behind the green door (Green Door) When I said 'Joe sent me' someone laughed out loud Behind the green door (Uuh Green Door) All I want to do is join the happy crowd Behind the green door! (Green Door)

Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out Composer(s): Bruce Springsteen First release by: Bruce Springsteen - 1975
Tear drops on the city Bad Scooter searching for his groove Seem like the whole world walking pretty And you can't find the room to move Well everybody better move over, that's all I'm running on the bad side And I got my back to the wall Tenth Avenue freeze-out, Tenth Avenue freeze-out
I'm stranded in the jungle Taking all the heat they was giving The night is dark but the sidewalk's bright And lined with the light of the living From a tenement window a transistor blasts Turn around the corner things got real quiet real fast She hit me with a Tenth Avenue freeze-out Tenth Avenue freeze-out And I'm all alone, I'm all alone And kid you better get the picture And I'm on my own, I'm on my own And I can't go home
When the change was made uptown And the Big Man joined the band From the coastline to the city All the little pretties raise their hands I'm gonna sit back right easy and laugh When Scooter and the Big Man bust this city in half With a Tenth Avenue freeze-out, Tenth Avenue freeze-out Tenth Avenue freeze-out...
Un'estate Fa Dutch & French Titles: Zoals Een Mooi Verhaal; Un Beau Roman; Une Belle Histoire Composer(s): Pierre Delanoë; Michel Fugain; F. Califano Performer(s): Mina and various other artists (Originally performed by: Michel Fugain)
Un'estate fa la storia di noi due era un pò come una favola ma l'estate va e porta via con sè anche il meglio delle favole La tua strada è là ma ci dividerà la mia strada della vacanza segnerà la tua lontananza Un'estate fa non c'eri che tu ma l'estate somiglia a un gioco è stupenda ma dura poco Torno a casa mia e torni pure tu sono cose che succedono un'estate in più che mi regalerà un autunno malinconico senza te E finice qui la storia di noi due due amanti che si perdono Un'estate fa la storia di noi due era un pò come una favola
Tenterfield Saddler Composer(s): Peter Alan Performer(s): Peter Alan; Olivia Newton-John; Todd McKenny
The late George Woolnough Worked on High Street and lived on Manners Fifty two years he sat on his verandah And made his saddles And if you had questions about sheep, or flowers or dogs You'd just ask the saddler, who lived without sin They're building a library for him
Time is a traveller, Tenterfield Saddler Turn your head Ride again jackaroo, think I see kangaroo up ahead
The son of George Woolnough Went off and got married and had a way baby Something was wrong and it's easier to drink then go crazy And if there were questions about why the end was so sad Well George had no answers about why a son Ever has need of a gun
Time is a traveller, Tenterfield Saddler Turn your head Ride again jackaroo, think I see kangaroo up ahead
The Grandson of George has been all round the world And lives no special place Changed his last name and he married a girl With an interesting face He'd almost forgotten them both Because in the life that he leads There's nowhere for George and his library Or the son with his gun to belong Except in this song
Time is a traveller, Tenterfield Saddler Turn your head Ride again jackaroo, think I see kangaroo up ahead
Oh time is a meddler, Tenterfield Saddler Make your bed Fly away cockatoo, down on the ground emu up ahead
Oh time is a traveller, Tenterfield Saddler Turn your head Fly away cockatoo, down on the ground emu up ahead
