Track Track Composer(s): Fito Páez Performer(s): Fito Páez; Os Paralamas do Sucesso
No se pasa el tiempo Al menos para mí ya tome pastillas Y sigo sin dormir Miro a los costados y nada que amarrar Ya no existen lazos Alguien hizo trac, trac, trac
Todos los perfumes, todo aquel lugar Todas las miserias y toda la verdad Cada movimiento del sol en la pared Cada mueble viejo, cada anochecer Eh, eh, eh
Dame tu amor, sólo tu amor Dame tu amor, sólo tu amor
Pocas garantías hay para los dos Nada en este mundo tiene algún valor Todo el vecindario puede proceder Yo soy sospechoso como vos y él
Vino todo el mundo, la radio y la TV Vino el comisario, los ángeles también Todos quieren algo, sangre o no se qué Y todo el universo sigue intacto como ayer
Dame tu amor, sólo tu amor Dame tu amor, sólo tu amor

Just One More Composer(s): George Jones Performer(s): George Jones; and various other artists
Put the Bottle on the table Let it stay there till I'm not able To see her face in ev'ry place that I go I've been sitting here so long
Just remembering that you are gone Well, one more drink of wine Then if shes still on my mind One drink, Just One More, and then another
I'll keep drinking, it won't matter I'll just remember that I once had her I don't know why I sit and cry ev'ry day
I've been trying to forget, but I havent stopped as yet Well, one more drink of wine Then if shes still on my mind One drink, just one more, and then another
So, put the bottle on the table Let it stay there till I'm not able To see her face in ev'ry place that I go I've been sitting here so long
Just remembering that she is gone Well, one more drink of wine Then if shes still on my mind One drink, just One More, and then another...
Traces Composer(s): Buddy Buie - James Cobb - Emory Gordy First release: Classics IV - 1969 Covered by multiple other artists
Faded photographs Covered now with lines and creases Tickets torn in half Memories in bits and pieces Traces of love long ago That didn't work out right Traces of love
Ribbons from her hair Souvenirs of days together The ring she used to wear Pages from an old love letter Traces of love long ago That didn't work out right Traces of love with me tonight
I close my eyes and say a prayer That in her heart she'll find A trace of love still there Somewhere, oh-oh-ooohhh
Traces of hope in the night That she'll come back and dry Theses traces of tears from my eyes Oh-oh-oh-ooohhh-oh-oh-oh, oh yeah

Just One Heart Composer(s): Paul Muggleton Performer(s): Agnetha Faltskog
The fever's running in the city People want to make it so much worse On the high street I can see no pity People with their faces in the dirt Just one heart, that needs to open Just one word will break the ice One touch, to kill the darkness One kiss to give it light Just one heart, that needs to open Just one word will break the ice One touch, to kill the darkness One kiss to give it light Make it right See the man there kicking in the shadows Why's he feel he's got to kill and steal? He can't wait to see which way the wind blows Does it mean he'll get a better deal? Just one heart, that needs to open Just one word will break the ice One touch, to kill the darkness One kiss to give it light Just one heart, that needs to open Just one word will break the ice One touch, to kill the darkness One kiss to give it light Make it right, make it right Just one heart, that needs to open Just one word will break the ice One touch, to kill the darkness One kiss to give it light Just one heart, that needs to open Just one word will break the ice One touch, to kill the darkness One kiss to give it light Just one heart...one heart Just one heart...one heart Just one heart...one heart...

Sweet Marie from gay Paree Came here to go upon the stage Sweet Marie a hit was she And soon became the public rage Every night it was a sight To see the Johnnies fall in line On bended knee you'd hear this please Oh sweet Marie come please be mine

Just Once Composer(s): Barry Mann; Cynthia Weil Performer(s): Sonny Rollins; and various other artists
I did my best But I guess my best wasn't good enough 'Cause here we are back where we were before Seems nothing ever changes We're back to being strangers Wondering if we oughta stay Or head on out the door
Just once can't we figure out what we keep doing wrong? Why we never last for very long What are we doing wrong? Just once can't we find a way to finally make it right? Make the magic last for more than just one night If we could just get to it I know we could break through it
I gave my all But I think my all may have been too much 'Cause Lord knows we're not getting anywhere Seems we're always blowing whatever we've got going And seems at times with all we've got We haven't got a prayer
Just once can't we figure out what we keep doing wrong? Why the good times never last for very long What are we doing wrong? Just once can't we find a way to finally make it right? And make the magic last for more than just one night If we could just get to it I know we could break through it
Just once I want to understand Why it always comes back to good-bye Why can't we get ourselves in hand? And admit to one another That we're no good without the other Take the best and make it better Find a way to stay together
Just once can't we find a way to finally make it right? Make the magic last for more than just one night I know we can break through it If we could just get to it

Just My Imagination (Running Away With Me) Composer(s): Norman Whitfield - Barrett Strong First release by: The Temptations - 1971 Covered by multiple other artists
Each day through my window I watch her as she passes by I say to myself, "You're such a lucky guy" To have a girl like her is truly a dream come true Out of all the fellas in the world, she belongs to you But it was just my imagination Running away with me It was just my imagination Running away with me Soon we'll be married and raise a family A cozy little home, out in the country, with two children, maybe three I tell you I can visualize it all This couldn't be a dream, for too real it all seems But it was just my imagination, once again Running away with me Tell you, it was just my imagination Running away with me Every night, on my knees I pray "Dear lord, hear my plea Don't ever let another take her love from me Or I will surely die" Her love is heavenly When her arms enfold me I hear her tender rhapsody But in reality, she doesn't even know me It was just my imagination, once again Running away with me Oh, tell you, it was just my imagination Running away with me I never met her, but I can't forget her Just my imagination, yeah, yeah, yeah Running away with me Oooh, just my imagination Running away with me
Town Without Pity Composer(s): Dmitri Tiomkin - Ned Washington First release: Gene Pitney - 1961 Covered by multiple other artists
When you're young and so in love as we And bewildered by the world we see Why do people hurt us so Only those in love would know What a town without pity can do
If we stop to gaze upon a star People talk about how bad we are Ours is not an easy age We're like tigers in a cage What a town without pity can do
The young have problems, many problems We need an understanding heart Why don't they help us, try and help us Before this clay and granite planet falls apart
Take these eager lips and hold me fast I'm afraid this kind of joy can't last How can we keep love alive How can anything survive When these little minds tear you in two What a town without pity can do
How can we keep love alive How can anything survive When these little minds tear you in two What a town without pity can do
No, it isn't very pretty what a town without pity Ca-a-an do (... do)
One Night Of Love Composer(s): Joe Tate Performer(s): Karen Dalton
He gives me one night of love Sometimes he gives me two Hmm when I'm gone He don't even think my name It's got me down Down to the ground Looks like this whole world And my best friend got me down
I gave him all my money All of my good loving too Ah, when I'm gone He don't even mention my name It's got me down Down to the ground Looks like this whole world And my best friend got me down It's got me down
I'm just singing this song I wouldn't do anything wrong It's got me down I'm just telling the truth I can't show you no kind of proof It's got me down Got me down Down to the ground This whole world And my best friend got me down It's got me down
One night of love Gives me one night of love One night of love One night of love One night of love
