This Place Hotel Composer(s): Michael Jackson Performer(s): The Jackson 5; The Spinners; Marcus Johnson
Live in sin Ten years ago on this day my heart was yearning I promised I would never ever be returning Where my baby broke my heart and left me yearning Hee-hee!
As we walked to the room There were faces staring, glaring, tearing through me! Someone said welcome to your doom Then they smiled with eyes that looked as if they knew me This is scaring me!
We walked up the stairs, still concealing the gloom There were two girls (Sitting in my room!) She walked up to my face, said this is the place You said meet you right here at noon (Ooh!)
This is Heartbreak Hotel! Welcome to Heartbreak Hotel! So this is Heartbreak Hotel! This place is Heartbreak Hotel!
Hope is dead She thought that I had cheated for another lover I turn my back to see that Im undercover Now I can't convince this girl there ain't no other! Hee-hee!
Someone's evil to hurt my soul Every smile's a trial thought in beguile to hurt me! This is scaring me! Then the man next door had told She's been here in tears for fifteen years! This is scaring me!
We came to this place where the vicious dwelt Found that wicked women (Run this strange hotel!) There was Sefra and Sue, every girl that I knew And my baby said love is through (Ugh!)
This is Heartbreak Hotel! Welcome to Heartbreak Hotel! So evil, Heartbreak Hotel! This place is Heartbreak Hotel! Someones stabbin my heart! (Heartbreak Hotel) This is Heartbreak Hotel! (Heartbreak Hotel) Ten years ago today! (Heartbreak Hotel) This is Heartbreak Hotel! (Heartbreak Hotel)
Hoo!
Someones stabbin my heart! (Heartbreak Hotel) This is Heartbreak Hotel, hoo! (Heartbreak Hotel) Ten years ago today! (Heartbreak Hotel) Hurting my mind, hoo! (Heartbreak Hotel) You break my babys heart! (Heartbreak Hotel) This is Heartbreak Hotel! (Heartbreak Hotel) Just welcome to the scene, woo!
Crimson Ship Composer(s): Tom Evans; Pete Ham Performer(s): Badfinger
My life was coloured, painting pictures out of tune You came from nowhere in a song It might have been the way I laughed, he made the jokes Could only show me what was wrong
He took me flying on his crimson ship He never left me his number He took me flying on his crimson ship Then he was gone and I wondered
Who put the knots on all the crosses on the hill? Why did the old man wash his hands? Who grew the flower that was big enough to kill? And blew the trumpet in the van, a-an
He took me flying on his crimson ship He never left me his number He took me flying on his crimson ship Then he was gone and I wondered Oh-oh, oh-oh
When they were busy throwing kisses at the moon A father lost his mother's son And though they knew the resurrection would be soon The time was spent, they carried on, o-on
He took me flying on his crimson ship He never left me his number He took me flying on his crimson ship Then he was gone and I wondered
Januária Composer(s): Chico Buarque Performer(s): Chico Buarque; and various other artists
Toda gente homenageia Januária na janela Até o mar faz maré cheia Pra chegar mais perto dela O pessoal desce na areia E batuca por aquela Que, malvada, se penteia E não escuta quem apela
Quem madruga sempre encontra Januária na janela Mesmo o sol quando desponta Logo aponta os lados dela Ela faz que não dá conta De sua graça tão singela O pessoal se desaponta Vai pro mar, levanta vela
As you go out it's Independence Day But instead I'll just pour myself a drink It's got to be love, I've never felt this way Oh baby, this one's from the heart
The shadows in the road look like a railroad track I wonder if he's (ever) really comin' back The moon's a yellow stain across the sky Oh baby, this one's from the heart
(Maybe) And I'll go down to the corner and get a racin' form (But) And I should prob'ly wait here by the phone And the brakes need adjustment on the convertible Oh baby, this one's from the heart
The worm is climbin' the other color tree Robin is back against the wall Pour myself a double sympathy Oh baby, this one's from the heart
Blondes, brunettes, and redheads put their hammer down (To put ) don't pound a cold chisel thru my heart But they were nothin' but apostrophes O baby, this one's from the heart
I can't tell, is that a siren or a saxophone? But the roads get so slipp'ry (when it rains) I love you more than all these words can ever say Oh baby, this one's from the heart
Crimson Dragon Tattoo Composer(s): Ray Wylie Hubbard Performer(s): Ray Wylie Hubbard
I have a crimson dragon tattoo And it burns on my arm like the truth Red ink's on my skin It's on my soul too I have a crimson dragon tattoo
Twenty-one silver dollars is what it cost And it was drawn by a fast left hand when I was lost And I did not choose a heart A rose or the cross Twenty-one silver dollars is what it cost
Sometimes it whispers my name Tells me that this life's just a game Whom the gods wish to destroy First drive insane Sometimes it whispers my name
I have a crimson dragon tattoo And it burns on my arm like the truth The red ink's on my skin It's on my soul too I have a crimson dragon tattoo

This One's For You Composer(s): Marty Panzer - Barry Manilow Performer(s): Barry Manilow
This one I'll never sell, they'll never understand I don't even sing it well, I try but I just can't But I sing it every night and I fight to keep it in Cause this one's for you, this one's for you
I've done a hundred songs from fantasies to lies But this one's so real for me that I'm that one who cries And I sing it every night and I fight to hide the tears Cause this one's for you, this one's for you
This one's for you wherever you are To say that nothings been the same since we've been apart This one's for all the love we once knew Like everything else I have, this one's for you Oh-uh-oh
I've got it all, it seems, for all it means to me But I sing of things I miss and things that used to be And I wonder every night, if you might just miss me too And I sing for you, I sing for you
This one's for you wherever I go To say the things I should have said, things that you should know This one's to say that all I can do Is hope that you will hear me sing 'cause this one's for you Oh-uh-oh
This one's for you wherever you are To say that nothings been the same since we've been apart Oh This one's for all the love we once knew

This Ole House ((Finnish Version: Seiska (Kipparikvartetti) - 1955)) Composer(s): Stuart Hamblen First release by: Stuart Hamblen - 1954 Covered by multiple other artists
This ole house once knew my children This ole house once knew my wife This ole house was home and comfort As we fought the storms of life This ole house once rang with laughter This ole house heard many shouts Now she trembles in the darkness When the lightnin' walks about
Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer Ain't a-gonna need this house no more Ain't got time to fix the shingles Ain't got time to fix the floor Ain't got time to oil the hinges Nor to mend no window pane Ain't gonna need this house no longer I'm a-gettin' ready to meet the saints
This ole house is a-gettin' shaky This ole house is a-gettin' old This ole house lets in the rain This ole house lets in the cold On my knees I'm gettin' chilly But I feel no fear or pain 'Cause I see an angel peekin' Through a broken window pane
Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer Ain't a-gonna need this house no more Ain't got time to fix the shingles Ain't got time to fix the floor Ain't got time to oil the hinges Nor to mend no window pane Ain't gonna need this house no longer I'm a-gettin' ready to meet the saints
Now this ole house is afraid of thunder This ole house is afraid of storms This ole house just groans and trembles When the night wind flings its arms This ole house is a-gettin' feeble This ole house is a-needin' paint Just like me it's tuckered out But I'm a-gettin' ready to meet the saints
Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer Ain't a-gonna need this house no more Ain't got time to fix the shingles Ain't got time to fix the floor Ain't got time to oil the hinges Nor to mend no window pane Ain't gonna need this house no longer I'm a-gettin' ready to meet the saints
And my old hound dog lies a sleepin' He don't know I'm gonna leave Else he'd wake up by the fire place And he'd sit down, howl and grieve But my huntin' days are over Ain't gonna hunt the coon no more Gabriel done brought in my chariot When the wind blew down the door
Ain't a-gonna need this house no longer Ain't a-gonna need this house no more Ain't got time to fix the shingles Ain't got time to fix the floor Ain't got time to oil the hinges Nor to mend no window pane Ain't gonna need this house no longer I'm a-gettin' ready to meet the saints I'm ready to meet the saints
Crime Of Passion Composer(s): Mike Oldfield Performer(s): Mike Oldfield; Bamble Bee
On a bright day she passed away in the morning It's a cruel way to take her away with no warning He took her hands through every midnight hour And then saw her fading away like a spring shower
I can see a complete life's time Pictures and posters of times and fashion Nineteen years with no reason or rhyme Taken away in a crime of passion
He stood to see if he could catch her breathing But it was no good, he understood she was leaving He looked outside the frosty window pane And then he saw her moving away, Elizabeth Jane
I can see a complete life's time Pictures and posters of times and fashion Nineteen years with no reason or rhyme Taken away in a crime of passion
I see freedom in sight, it's a long climb But she would not give up the fight for a long time And I see a light come shining in tonight Baby, it's all right We couldn't have changed it with second sight
I can see a complete life's time Pictures and posters of times and fashion Nineteen years with no reason or rhyme Taken away in a crime of passion
I see freedom light shining in the night I see freedom but she wouldn't give up the fight
I see a light go shining in tonight Baby, it's all right We couldn't have changed it with second sight

This old heart of mine been broke a thousand times Each time you break away, feel you're gone to stay Lonely nights that come, memories that go bringing you back again, hurting me more and more Maybe it's my mistake to show this love I feel inside 'cause each day that passes by you got me never knowing if I'm coming or going but I love you, yes I do I love you; this old heart weeps for you
I try hard to hide my hurt inside This old heart of mine always keeps me crying The way you treat me leaves me incomplete You're here for the day, gone for the week But if I want you a hundred times a hundred times I have you back I'm yours whenever you want me I wanna shout about it, tell the world about it 'cause I love you; this old heart weeps for you I love you, yes, I do
Maybe it's my mistake to show this love I feel inside 'cause each day that passes by you got me never knowing if I'm coming or going but I love you, yes I do This old heart weeps for you I love you; this old heart weeps for you I love you; yes I do I love you; this old heart weeps for you

Cried Like A Baby Composer(s): Craig Doerge; Paul Williams Performer(s): Bobby Sherman
Always had the best of everything Anything money could buy I go first class and I'll live like a king till I die I surround myself with treasure And devote each day to pleasure Until late at night this king begins to cry
And I have cried like a baby in the darkness of my room Nobody there to hold my trembling hand And I cried like a baby in the darkness of my room With nobody there to love or understand
In the comfort of my castle I have lived my life in style Let the troubled world just up and pass me by I surround myself with treasure and I fill each day with pleasure Until late at night this king begins to cry
And I have cried like a baby in the darkness of my room Nobody there to hold my trembling hand And I cried like a baby in the darkness of my room With nobody there to love or understand
In the hollow of an empire I've become a warrior king Hunting golden deals and million dollar schemes When our fate has been decided And my soul's been sub-divided I will cry alone for half forgotten dreams
And I have cried like a baby in the darkness of my room Nobody there to hold my trembling hand And I cried like a baby in the darkness of my room With nobody there to love or understand
Cried like a baby in the darkness of my room Nobody there to hold my trembling hand And I cried like a baby in the darkness of my room With nobody there to love or understand

Criado Por Lobos Composer(s): Miguel Mateos Performer(s): Miguel Mateos
Todo lo que anda dando vueltas tarde o temprano nos alcanza hoy dejaré la puerta abierta y lo encararé Si fuimos criados por lobos amamantados en su fe quisiera encontrar el modo para volverte a ver
Sueños, sueños el viento se lleva los sueños Deja, sólo deja... hojas secas en el lugar
Dame refugio dámelo ya hoy que he perdido casi todo y ya no se si estás si cualquier modo fuimos criados por lobos
Caminaré por Buenos Aires con mi guitarra y mi gabán mi detector de mentiras en medio de la oscuridad y cuando encuentre al que me dijo que fuiste criada por lobos le haré decir mil veces Piedad y lo pondré a soñar...
Sueños, sueños el viento se lleva los sueños Deja, sólo deja... hojas secas en el lugar
Dame refugio dámelo ya hoy que he perdido casi todo y ya no se si estás si cualquier modo fuimos criados por lobos
y ya no se si estás si cualquier modo fuimos criados por lobos
