Una vez me entretuve con un sueño lo tomé, lo solté, le dimos vueltas lo aprendí, me lo puse, fui su dueño y pensé que era cosa ya resuelta
Y soñando que un sueño era mi traje comencé la canción, la poesía y aquel sueño aprendió todo el mundo de mí e iba yo sin saber que él sabía, que él sabía
Y así fui, por la tierra, por los mares por los cielos, las noches y los días los amores, los templos y los bares así fui con mi sueño que sabía
Y aquel sueño que yo soñaba puesto comenzó a soñar que él me soñaba y un buen día aprendí todo el mundo de él y ahora somos pareja en la sala e inventamos un vals que bailamos para soñar
Sueño que bailo con mi vals y el sueño bailando que con su hombre bailando va Sueño y soy sueño, soy vals que viene y va que viene y va
You Can't Hurry Love Composer(s): Lamont Dozier; Brian Holland; Eddie Holland Performer(s): Diana Ross & The Supremes; and various other artists
I need love, love To ease my mind I need to find, find someone to call mine But mama said
You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait She said love don't come easy It's a game of give and take
You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait You got to trust, give it time No matter how long it takes
But how many heartaches Must I stand before I find a love To let me live again Right now the only thing That keeps me hangin' on When I feel my strength, yeah It's almost gone I remember mama said
You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait She said love don't come easy It's a game of give and take
How long must I wait How much more can I take Before loneliness will cause my heart Heart to break?
No I can't bear to live my life alone I grow impatient for a love to call my own But when I feel that I, I can't go on These precious words keeps me hangin' on I remember mama said
You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait She said love don't come easy It's a game of give and take
You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait She said trust, give it time No matter how long it takes
No, love, love, don't come easy But I keep on waiting Anticipating for that soft voice To talk to me at night For some tender arms To hold me tight I keep waiting I keep on waiting But it ain't easy It ain't easy But mama said
You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait She said to trust, give it time No matter how long it takes
You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait She said love don't come easy It's a game of give and take
Sueño Guajiro Composer(s): Agustín Lara Performer(s): Agustín Lara and multiple other artists
Duerme bajo la sombra del platanar sueña con esa noche plenilunar Embriágate con esta luz aroma de carabalí y piensa en un amor que nazca en Veracruz y muera en Yumurí
Soñar mi reina del palmar que dulce bienestar que blanda sensación
Soñar muy cerquita del mar y con su espuma salpicar nuestra canción
Hacer con tu mejor vaivén un canto caibarién que te hable de mi penar Morena linda que inspiró este son guajira que robó mi corazón
Morena linda que inspiró este son guajira que robó mi corazón

Sueño En Tu Regreso Composer(s): Javier Solís Performer(s): Javier Solís
La noche me lo ha dicho que tú ya no me quieres y voy por este mundo en busca de otro amor Más no puedo olvidarte tus besos aún me queman y pasan por mi mente recuerdos de tu amor
Y así vaga mi vida soñando en tu regreso y tal vez en tu alma ya existe un nuevo amor Más si el destino quiere ponernos frente a frente te juro por lo nuestro que ya no habrá rencor
Y así vaga mi vida soñando en tu regreso y tal vez en tu alma ya existe un nuevo amor Más si el destino quiere ponernos frente a frente te juro por lo nuestro que ya no habrá rencor
You Can't Get Along With 'Em Or Without 'Em Composer(s): Grant Clarke; Fred Fischer
I think the married men are gettin' a trimmin' And still I hate to knock the beautiful women Oh, gee! what can the trouble be? You read, of course, every day some divorce No matter, where you go you hear of a scandal Why are the women getting harder to handle? Who's to blame, who's to blame? Love is a terrible game
I know a lot of men who never will leave 'em And then a lot of men who never believe 'em Oh, my! how they can tell a lie Look in your eye, and deny and deny They get excited, then you pet 'em and salve 'em Where would we be today if we didn't have 'em? Cold as ice then they're nice Some fellows marry them twice
You can't get along when you're with 'em or without 'em Girls, right or wrong, there is something nice about 'em They're stubborn and contrary, expensive Still, they're very necessary Each little peach has a way that's so endearing Oh, how your dough has a way of disappearing You know the world is saying, "we need 'em" And still the other half is praying for freedom You can't get along when you're with 'em or without 'em You've got to have 'em, that's all!
You can't get along when you're with 'em or without 'em Girls, right or wrong, there is something nice about 'em They're stubborn and contrary, expensive Still, they're very necessary Each little peach has a way that's so endearing Oh, how your dough has a way of disappearing Just when you treat 'em nice, they leave you, they hate you You always take 'em back, it's old Human Nature You can't get along when you're with 'em or without 'em You've got to have 'em, that's all!
You Can't Get A Man With A Gun Composer(s): Irving Berlin Performer(s): Doris Day; and various other artists
Oh, my mother was frightened by a shotgun, they say Thats why I'm such a wonderful shot I'd be out in the cactus and I'd practice all day And now tell me what have I got? I'm quick on the trigger with targets not much bigger than a pinpoint I'm number one, but my score with a feller Is lower than a celler, oh you can't get a man with a gun When I'm with a pistol, I sparkle like a crystal yes, I shine like the morning sun but I lose all my luster, when with a bronco buster oh you can't get a man with a gun With a gu-un, with a gu-un, oh you can't get a man with a gun If I went to battle with someone's herd of cattle You'd have steak when the job was done But, if I shot the herder, they'd holler bloody murder and you can't shoot a male in the tail like a quail Oh you can't get a man with a gun I'm cool, brave, and daring to see a lion glaring when I'm out with my Remington But a look from a mister will raise a fever blister oh you can't get a man with a gun The gals with umbrellas are always out with fellers in the rain or the blazin sun But a man never trifles with gals who carry rifles oh you can't get a man with a gun With a gu-un, with a gu-un, oh you can't get a man with a gun. A man's love is mighty, he'll even buy a nightie for a gal who he thinks is fun But they don't buy pajamas for pistol packin mamas and you can't get a hug from a mug, with a slug oh you can't get a man with a gun
Sueño De Una Noche De Verano Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Yo soñé con aviones que nublaban el día justo cuando la gente más cantaba y reía más cantaba y reía
Yo soñé con aviones que entre sí se mataban destruyendo la gracia de la clara mañana de la clara mañana
Si pienso que fui hecho para soñar el sol y para decir cosas que despierten amor ¿Cómo es posible entonces que duerma entre saltos de angustia y horror?
En mi sábana blanca vertieron hollín han echado basura en mi verde jardín si capturo al culpable de tanto desastre lo va a lamentar
Anoche tuve un sueño y anoche era verano oh verano terrible para un sueño malvado para un sueño malvado
Anoche tuve un sueño que nadie merecía ¿Cuánto de pesadilla quedará todavía quedará todavía?
Si pienso que fui hecho para soñar el sol y para decir cosas que despierten amor ¿Cómo es posible entonces que duerma entre saltos de angustia y horror?
En mi sábana blanca vertieron hollín han echado basura en mi verde jardín si capturo al culpable de tanto desastre lo va a lamentar
Yo soñé un agujero bajo tierra y con gente que se estremecía al compás de la muerte al compás de la muerte
Yo soñé un agujero bajo tierra y oscuro y espero que mi sueño no sea mi futuro no sea mi futuro
Si pienso que fui hecho para soñar el sol y para decir cosas que despierten amor ¿Cómo es posible entonces que duerma entre saltos de angustia y horror?
En mi sábana blanca vertieron hollín han echado basura en mi verde jardín si capturo al culpable de tanto desastre lo va a lamentar Yo soñé con aviones que nublaban el día justo cuando la gente más cantaba y reía más cantaba y reía

You Can't Catch Me Composer(s): Chuck Berry Performer(s): Chuck Berry; and various other artists
I bought a brand new airmobile It was custom made 'Twas a Flight DeVille With a powerful motor And some hide-away wings Push in on the button and you will hear her sing Now you can't catch me Baby, you can't catch me 'Cause if you get too close You know I'm gone like a cool breeze
New Jersey Turnpike in the wee wee hours I was rolling slowly 'cause of drizzlin' showers Here come up flat top he was movin' up with me Then come wavin' goodbye In a little old suped up jitny I put my foot in my tank and I began to roll Moanin' sirens, 'twas the state po'trol So I let out my wings and then I blew my horn Bye-bye New Jersey I become airborne
Now you can't catch me Baby you can't catch me 'Cause if you get too close You know I'm gone like a cool breeze
Flyin' with my baby last Saturday night Wasn't a gray cloud floatin' in sight Big full moon shinin' up above Cuddle up honey be my love Sweetest little thing I ever seen I'm gon' name you Maybellene Flyin' on the beam set on flight control Radio tuned to rock 'n' roll Two, three hours are passed us by Altitude dropped to 505 Fuel consumption way too fast Let's get on home before we run out of gas
Now you can't catch me No baby, you can't catch me 'Cause if you get too close You know I'm gone like a coooool breeze
Sueño Con Serpientes Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez and multiple other artists
Sueño con serpientes, con serpientes de mar con cierto mar, ay, de serpientes sueño yo Largas, transparentes, y en sus barrigas llevan lo que puedan arrebatarle al amor
Oh, la mato y aparece una mayor Oh, con mucho más infierno en digestión
No quepo en su boca, me trata de tragar pero se atora con un trébol de mi sien Creo que está loca; le doy de masticar una paloma y la enveneno de mi bien
Oh, la mato y aparece una mayor Oh, con mucho más infierno en digestión
Ésta al fin me engulle, y mientras por su esófago paseo, voy pensando en qué vendrá Pero se destruye cuando llego a su estómago y planteo con un verso una verdad
Oh, la mato y aparece una mayor Oh, con mucho más infierno en digestión

You can't be true, dear There's nothing more to say I trusted you, dear Hoping we'd find a way Your kisses tell me That you and I are through But I'll keep loving you Although you can't be true
Clouds hide the sun In the skies that were blue As my heart says Goodbye to you
You can't be true, dear There's nothing more to say I trusted you, dear Hoping we'd find a way Your kisses tell me That you and I are through But I'll keep loving you Although you can't be true

You Can't Be Too Strong Composer(s): Graham Parker Performer(s): Graham Parker; Superfolk
Did they tear it out, with talons of steel And give you a shot, so that you wouldn't feel And wash it away, as if it wasn't real
It's just a mistake, I won't have to face Don't give it a name, don't give it a place Don't give it a chance, it's lucky in a way
It must have felt strange, to find me inside you I hadn't intended to stay If you want to keep it right, put it to sleep at night Squeeze it until it could say
(Chorus)
You can't be too strong You can't be too strong You can't be too strong You can't be too strong You decide what's wrong
Well I ain't gonna cry, I'm gonna rejoice And shout myself dry, and go see the boys They'll laugh when I say, I left it overseas
Yeah babe I know that it gets dark, down by Luna Park But everybody else, is squeezing out a spark That happened in the heat, somewhere in the dark, in the dark
The doctor gets nervous, completing the service He's all rubber gloves and no head He fumbles the light switch, it's just another minor hitch Wishes to God he was dead
(Repeat Chorus)
You can't be too strong You decide what's wrong Can't be too hard, too tough, too rough, too right, too wrong And you, can't be too strong

Suddenly, Seymour Is standing beside me He don't give me orders He don't condescend Suddenly, Seymour Is here to provide me Sweet understanding Seymour's my friend
Tell me this feeling Lasts 'til forever Tell me the bad times Are clean, washed away! Please understand that It's still strange and frightening For loosers like I've been It's so hard to say...
Suddenly, Seymour He purified me Suddenly, Seymour Showed me I can! Learn how to be more! The girl that's inside (you/me) With sweet understanding With sweet understanding With sweet understanding Seymour's (your/my) man
You Can't Always Get What You Want Composer(s): Mick Jagger; Keith Richards Performer(s): The Rolling Stones; and various other artists
I saw her today at the reception A glass of wine in her hand I knew she was gonna meet her connection At her feet was a footloose man
I saw her today at the reception A glass of wine in her hand I knew she was gonna meet her connection At her feet was a footloose man
You can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want But if you try sometimes you just might find You'll get what you need
I went down to the demonstration To get my fair share of abuse Singing "we're gonna vent our frustrations And if we don't we're gonna blow a 50-amp fuse"
You can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want But if you try sometimes you might find You'll get what you need
I went down to the Chelsea drugstore To get your prescription filled I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy And man, did he look pretty ill We decided that we would have a soda My favorite flavor, cherry red I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy And he said one word to me, and that was "dead," I said to him
You can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want But if you try sometimes you just might find You'll get what you need
You'll get what you need--yeah, oh baby
I saw her today at the reception In her glass was a bleeding man She was practiced at the art of deception Well I could tell by her bloodstained hands
You can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want But if you try sometimes you just might find You just might find You'll get what you need
You can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want But if you try sometimes you just might find

One summer never ends One summer never begins It keeps me standing still It takes all my will And then suddenly Last summer And then suddenly Last summer
One summer never ends One summer never begins It keeps me standing still It takes all my will And then suddenly Last summer And then suddenly Last summer Until suddenly Last Summer
