Amar nunca me coube Mas sempre transbordou O rio de lembranças Que um dia me afogou E nesta correnteza Fiquei a navegar Embora com certeza Não possa me salvar Amar nunca me trouxe Completo esquecimento Mais sempre se somou Ao antigo tormento E assim cada vez mais Me prendo nesse nó Que cada grito meu Parece ser maior
I'll Go Down Swinging Composer(s): Bill Anderson First release by: Porter Wagoner Covered by multiple other artists
The one I love don't want me hangin' 'round All she does is put me on and put me down Tonight she's with a stranger at a party in her home And I'm here at the tavern gettin' stoned
'Cause if I gotta go, I'll go down swingin' Where there's lights and laughter, booze and blonds And lots of sad, sad singin' I'll sober up tomorrow and cry all day I know At least I'll go down swingin' What a swingin' way to go
I'll dance with all the girls and buy the wine Play the jukebox till I'm down to my last dime She thinks she made a fool of me by lovin' someone else She should see me make a fool out of myself
'Cause if I gotta go, I'll go down swingin' Where there's lights and laughter, booze and blonds And lots of sad, sad singin' I'll sober up tomorrow and cry all day I know At least I'll go down swingin' What a swingin' way to go

Le bonheur en nos curs suit son cours
Esperanza, Esperanza
Et l'espoir est en nous mon amour
L'amour est né de tous petits riens
De gestes anodins
Prenant forme malgré nous
Et dans nos curs il a fait son nid
S'est épanoui dans nos rêves un peu fous
Et pourtant au lieu de louer la providence
Et cette chance bien à l'avance
Tu veux savoir si plus tard je serai le même
Mais puisque je t'aime et que tu m'aimes
Oublie tout pour aimer, vis le moment qui vient
Et n'ait pas peur de tes lendemains
Qu'adviendra-t-il de nous
Qu'importe c'est la vie
Je ne connais en tout que ce cri
Esperanza, Esperanza
Le bonheur en nos curs suit son cours
Esperanza, Esperanza
Et l'espoir est en nous mon amour
Cesse chérie de te tourmenter
De te torturer, tu t'inquiètes à quoi bon
Car ces pensées qui te font du mal
Me semblent anormales
Tu te ronges sans raisons
Crois-moi, oublie pour toujours ce qui te tracasse
Et tes angoisses car le temps passe
Et ce qui est perdu jamais ne revient rire
Mais sans rien dire il se retire
Tu vois, moi, je prend jour aux lueurs de ton cur
Pourtant de notre amour le meilleur
Ne sachant si demain peux donner du nouveau
J'ai confié mon destin à ce mot
Esperanza, Esperanza
Le bonheur en nos curs suit son cours
Esperanza, Esperanza
Et l'espoir est en nous mon amour
I'll Go Back To Her Composer(s): Waylon Jennings First release by: Waylon Jennings - 1976 Covered by: Dwight Yoakam - 1999
I'll go back to her where I'm wanted And maybe I can make up for the wrong Inspite of all I've done she still wants me So I'll go back to her where I belong
Walking out on her wasn't easy But without a second thought I left her there I gave my all and did it all to please you But the more I seem to do the less you care
I'll go back to her where I'm wanted And maybe I can make up for the wrong Inspite of all I've done she still wants me So I'll go back to her where I belong
I'll go back to her where I'm wanted And maybe I can make up for the wrong Inspite of all I've done she still wants me So I'll go back to her where I belong
Ill Give You Three Guesses
Composer(s): Henry Mancini; Johnny Mercer
Performer(s): Julie Andrews
If youre good at riddle-solving
If you make the claim
That no puzzle ever puzzles you
Here is one that needs evolving
Heres a guessing game
That should be a snap for you to do
Ill give you three guesses who loves you
Whos loved you right from the start
Not your mother who likes to baby you so
And not the girl at home you used to know
Oh no, theres somebody special who needs you
Together or apart
Bet you dont need three guesses and not even two
To know that Im the one sweetheart
Theres somebody special who needs you
Together or apart
Bet you dont need three guesses and not even two
To know that Im the one sweetheart
Es tarde mi amor El cielo ya no es azul Y la ventana está cerrada En tu habitación Es tarde mi amor No hay flores en tu jardín Cae la lluvia y mis lágrimas Se van por ti Espera mi amor No llores, que iré a buscar Con mis manos, tus caricias Aunque lejos estás Espera mi amor Que flores yo te quiero dar Y el silencio de tus labios Quiero así borrar Es tarde mi amor Y quiero besar tu piel Y jugar con tus cabellos Al amanecer Es tarde mi amor Y todo será verdad El otoño a tus ojos No regresará Espera mi amor No llores, que iré a buscar Con mis manos, tus caricias Aunque lejos estás Espera mi amor Que flores yo te quiero dar Y el silencio de tus labios Quiero así borrar
Espera Composer(s): J.M. Gallardo
Performer(s): Miguel Gallardo
Espera, no dejes que el cielo y el mundo me caigan encima espera, que siento que el miedo a estar solo me ahoga y me asfixia espera, que haré con la vida y los sueños que ayer construimos espera, espera Espera, que al irte las aves se irán con alas perdidas llorando caerán las estrellas si tú no las miras y el canto del viento y la lluvia sin ti será triste espera, espera Espera, que al irte mis manos se llenan de cosas vacías no ves que mi vida la forman tu sangre y la mía espera, espera Espera, que el frío que puebla el silencio me hiela la espalda no ves que si tu alma me deja se muere mi alma espera, espera Espera, por ti inventaré las palabras más bellas y locas y haré que una suave sonrisa florezca en tu boca después mil palomas te irán a decir que te quiero espera, espera Espera, que al irte regresa a la casa las penas más ondas tus pasos, tu risa, tus labios serán sólo sombra espera, espera Espera, ayer me mentiste al decirme que nunca te irías y ahora la muerte te vence y apaga tu vida espera, espera
I'll Give My Best To You Performer(s): Gwen Guthrie
On this our special day
There's something I want to say
Forever come what may
I will do my best for you
All who are gathered here
Bear witness to the love we share
Say I do and hold me dear
And I will do my best
I'll give my best
For our love I'll give my best to you
Now and for the rest of my life
I will give my best to you
I thank God for sending you
A heart of gold and a love that's true
And before the night is through
You will be a part of me
And if some rain should fall
And troubles have our backs to the wall
True love will conquer all and I will do the rest
I'll give my best for our love
I'll give my best to you
Now and for the rest of my life
I will give my best
And when the years fade away
And turn your hair to grey
We'll still be in love this way
I will give my best to you
Espera Composer(s): Rafael Carrión
Performer(s): Javier Solís
Espera, mira no te vayas es la última noche espera, ya no habrá más quejas ya no habrá reproches Quédate muy quieta no te diré nada sólo quiero verte ya no te preocupes todo ha terminado tú ya estás ausente
Espera sólo unos momentos, quiero tu presencia espera, guardaré tu imagen aquí en mi conciencia Espera por favor espera un poco, mañana serás libre yo pasaré a tu historia por mí ya no tendrás que esperar
Espera sólo unos momentos, quiero tu presencia espera, guardaré tu imagen aquí en mi conciencia Espera por favor espera un poco, mañana serás libre yo pasaré a tu historia por mí ya no tendrás que esperar Espera
Uno a veces cree que es el dueño del tiempo y le crecen alas y escapa en el viento y vuela copiando palomas y sueña entonces que aroma y cree que es montaña y es valle apenas un lazo que funde la tarde Y uno va corriendo solo en la vida y hace con lo más querido una herida y olvida detrás muchas cosas buscando una cama de rosas un dulce espejismo que mienta y que siempre huela a jume y a menta Per a veces uno vuelve a ser zumo de su propia carne y ve que es ninguno y busca recuerdos queridos deseando no haberlos perdido Comprende de pronto que es hora de pagar entrada por ver cómo llora
I'll Get By (As Long As I Have You) Composer(s): Roy Turk; Fred Ahlert First recording/First release by: Nick Lucas - 1928/1929 Covered by multiple other artists
I'll get by As long as I have you Though there be rain And darkness too I'll not complain I'll see it through

Patio que huele a noviazgo a coplas y a rosas y a flores de azahar la noche es capa española que con su negrura te supo embozar Patio que huele a noviazgo, a coplas y a rosas y a flores de azahar la noche es capa española que con su negrura te supo embozar
Como un clavel que revienta tu boca sangrienta un beso me dio y en ese beso quedaron la noche, las coplas, las rosas y yo Tras de las rejas de encajes los tiestos y flores pudieron oír lo que en un majo suspiro, suspiro del alma te quiso decir
Repicar de castañuelas que el patio gitano de fiesta llenó beso que ha sido el más mío aquél que tu boca temblando me dio. Algo que fue más que un beso algo que es más que besar
Beso que dejó en mi vida guitarras y coplas y flores de azahar
Repicar de castañuelas que el patio gitano de fiesta llenó beso que ha sido el más mío aquél que tu boca temblando me dio. Algo que fue más que un beso algo que es más que besar
