Lonely Sky Composer(s): Chris de Burgh Performer(s): Chris de Burgh; Finbar Wright
The cold north wind they call "La Bise" Is swirling round about my knees Trees are crying leaves into the river
I'm huddled in this french caf I never thought I'd see the day But winter's here and summer's really over
And even the birds have packed up and gone They're flying south with their song And my love, she too has gone, she had to fly
Out there, it's such a lonely sky They'll trap your wings my love and hold your flight They'll build a cage and steal your only sky Fly away, fly to me, fly when the wind is high I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky ...
The old cathedral lights are low She and I we'd often go there To admire and sometimes kneel in prayer
Lords and ladies lie in stone Hand in hand from long ago And though their hands are cold they'll love forever
Even the choir rehearses those songs For Christmas is not long And alone, I sing my song, she had to fly
Take care, it's such a lonely sky They'll trap your wings my love and hold your flight They'll build a cage and steal your only sky Fly away, fly to me, fly when the wind is high I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky Fly away, fly to me, and if you need my love I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky ... I'll come in with the dawn I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky On the wings of the morn I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky Above the world we'll be flying I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky ...
In Love Alone Performer(s): Richard Carpenter & Dionne Warwick
I memorize the words I want to say I practice every move I'll make I polay the scene like you were here and I feel every breath you take But all my plans just seem to melt away the moment you walk in the room I try to speak but words won't come Till I'm alone again I'm leaving my heart on the shelf sleep is a place I only cry myself and dream by myself I'm not in love alone we put our two hearts together just like I've always known Once we begin we're forever and I will never spend a long night without you again So now you know what I've been going through Now all I really need to know Is why your eyes look so surprised Oh no! This can't be true Would you have let me walk away? Why have you kept your feelings locked away? Did I hear you say? I'm not in love alone we put our two hearts together just like I've always known Once we begin we're forever and I will never spend a long night without you again
Lonely School Composer(s): Tommy Shaw Performer(s): Tommy Shaw
I drove past where we used to live You might have caught a glimpse of me As I passed by I swear it's still hard to believe
But at the time it seemed so clear to me I thought I had it all worded out I packed all that was dear to me And I left without a doubt that I'd
Given it all I had to give Still nothing moved nothing changed Nothing lived I did everything that I could do
But now I've had time to sort it out To graduate from lonely school And now I've got to let you know It's me who was the fool
It was me baby I was wrong But how can I say it You must have known it all along It was you who was always strong And I've got to tell you now I've got to show you how I've
Changed so many of my ways I left the band, steadied my hand and learned a trade And I'm coming back this time to stay
And you won't recognize the boy Who graduated lonely school 'Cause I've become quite wise about Who was or not the fool
It was me baby I was wrong But how can I say it You must have known it all along It was you who was always strong And I've got to tell you now I've got to show you how I've ...
Ever since I met you, baby, I've been wanting to lay you down But it's so hard to get you, baby, when you never come around Every day that U keep it away, it only makes me want it more Ooo baby, just say the word and I'll be at your door What more do I have to say? I really wanna play in your river... falling, falling, falling in love I'm falling, baby, deeper every day (in love) You're breakin' my heart and takin' me away (in love) I'm falling, baby, girl, what can I do? I just can't be without you
Ever since I met you, baby There's been something inside of me That keeps me wanting you, baby, won't you set me free Take off these chains, girl, and I'll take off yours There's no one in the world, baby, that I wanna love more What else do I have to say? I really wanna play in your river...
Falling, falling, falling in love I'm falling, baby, deeper every day (in love) You're breakin' my heart and takin' me away (in love) I'm falling, baby, girl, what can I do? I just can't be without you
I'm falling in love I'm falling, baby, deeper everyday (in love) You're breakin' my heart and takin' me away (in love) And I'm falling, baby, girl, what can I do? I just can't be without you
I'm falling... I'm falling... (in love) I'm drownin', baby, in my love 4 you (in love) You're breakin' my heart and takin' me away I just don't... I don't know what to say
Lonely People Composer(s): Dan Peek - Catherine L. Peek First release by: America - 1974
This is for all the lonely people Thinking that life has passed them by Don't give up until you drink from the silver cup And ride that highway in the sky
This is for all the single people Thinking that love has left them dry Don't give up until you drink from the silver cup You never know until you try
Well, I'm on my way Yes, I'm back to stay Well, I'm on my way back home (Hit it)
This is for all the lonely people Thinking that life has passed them by Don't give up until you drink from the silver cup And never take you down or never give you up You never know until you try
Beautiful Dreamer Composer(s): Stephen Collins Foster Performer(s): Bing Crosby with John Scott Trotter and His Orch. and multiple other artists
Beautiful dreamer, wake unto me Starlight and dewdrops are waiting for thee Sounds of the rude world, heard in the day Lull'd by the moonlight have all pass'd away! Beautiful dreamer, queen of my song List while I woo thee with soft melody Gone are the cares of life's busy throng Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me! Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me!
Beautiful dreamer, out on the sea Mermaids are chanting the wild lorelie Over the streamlet vapors are borne Waiting to fade at the bright coming morn Beautiful dreamer, beam on my heart E'en as the morn on the streamlet and sea Then will all clouds of sorrow depart Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me! Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me!

Lonely Night (Angel Face) Composer(s): Neil Sedaka First release by: Neil Sedaka - 1975
Lonely Night, I cry myself to sleep Tell me, what am I gonna do 'Cause it's always been you to dry my tears It's always been you to wash away my fears It's always been you each night and day Now what can I say when love slips away?
Lonely night, I'm walking the floor Tell me, what am I gonna do Without your precious love, your tender touch Hey, Little Boy, I miss you so much Wish we could turn back the hands of time To the day when you were mine
You used to call me Angel Face Used to call me Angel Face You used to help me through the night Make me feel all right Now all I have is teardrops through a lonely night
I can't get ya out of my mind I can't get ya out of my mind I can't get ya out of my mind I can't get ya out of my mind
I promise you I'll change my ways I promise you love's here to stay Hey, Little Boy, depend on me I'll be yours for eternity
Lonely Man Composer(s): Vic Corpora - Alan Jay Lerner Performer(s): Frankie Laine
(Lonely man lonely man All alone since time began Where do you go far do you see Poor lonely man you are lonelier than we)
Oh no little children Friends are all around Flying through the heavens Walking on the ground
I may be a wonder But one thing sure I know I've got friends to greet me any place where I may go In a sigh in a wonder Since time began But if you come with me you'll never be a lonely man
(Lonely man lonely man All alone since time began Stay where you are we're lonely too Please lonely man may we go along with you)
There way in the tree top talkin on my way Birds that send their music Birds that on the day Starlight for my candle And blue sky for my home
Little friendly critters Goin with me where I roam In a sigh in a wonder Since time began But if you come with me you'll never be a lonely man
Cuando Niño Composer(s): J.L. Ubiergo Performer(s): Fernando Ubiergo
Cuando niño yo tenía un ejército de hormigas que trepaban por mi mesa cuando un pan se hacía miga Y en un rincón del jardín a un poeta caracol que escribía en primavera dos cachitos para el sol
Cuando niño yo tenía un chanchito con monedas que venían del tesoro del pirata Barba Negra Sobre la cama un reloj con los números cambiados a la una eran las dos y a las cinco eran las cuatro
Cuando niño yo tenía un Pinocho de madera El dormía en una caja su nariz quedaba afuera Y dentro de un frasco azul un poquito de aire puro que recogí junto al mar pensando en el futuro
Cuando niño yo tenía un chichón en la cabeza por andar de rama en rama persiguiendo una cereza Y en el pescuezo una cruz hecha de hueso y pitilla Un amuleto andaluz pa no tener pesadillas
Un lorito en la nariz Una pelusa en mi ombligo Todo ese tiempo feliz aún lo llevo conmigo
Lonely Man Composer(s): Bennie Benjamin - Sol Marcus First recording/First release by: Elvis Presley with The Jordanaires - 1960/1961
It's a lonely man Who wanders all around It's a lonely man Who roams from town to town Searchin', always searchin' For something he can't find Hopin', always hopin' That some day fate will be kind
It's a lonely man Who travels all alone When he has no one That he can call his own
Always so unhappy Taking shelter where he can Here I am Come meet a lonely, lonely man
Always so unhappy Taking shelter where he can Here I am Come meet a lonely, lonely man
Cuando Nadie Composer(s): Horacio Guarany Performer(s): Horacio Guarany
Cuando nadie te crea cuando nadie te escuche cuando nadie recuerde lo que fuistes un día no te entregues por eso asómate a la vida levanta tu guitarra y canta... y canta Cuando todos aquellos que fueron tus amigos te den vuelta la cara porque estás por el suelo si eres firme en tu idea si eres firme en tus sueños levanta tu guitarra y canta... y canta
Recitado:
No te entregues canejo que el hombre no se entrega el hombre no es tan sólo una hermosa palabra El hombre como el fuego tan sólo se conoce cuando ha dejao su huella en medio del camino Anda tu vida y canta, y no te calles nunca porque sino la muerte te ha de robar el canto Cuando sientas que el maula que comió de tu mesa que bebió de tu vino en los días felices porque hoy te ve perdido se niega a tu llamado levanta tu guitarra y canta... y canta Cuando sientas clavar un puñal en tu espalda cuando sientas matar tu última esperanza no te achiques por eso demuestra que eres hombre levanta tu guitarra y canta... y canta
Lonely Lovers Symphony ((aka Darling Friend (by Neil Nathan) - 2008)) ((Adapted from: Für Elise (by Ludwig van Beethoven) - 1810)) ((Finnish Version: Rakkauden Sinfonia (by Fredi) - 1973)) Composer(s): Ludwig van Beethoven - Giorgio Moroder - Pete Bellotte Performer(s): Giorgio Moroder - 1973
Lonely lovers symphony Is a theme just for one Lonely lovers symphony For those hearts so alone
Desperate lovers bearing gifts Wrapped in love, stilled with hope Sparrows with their broken wings So far off from their home
Those driftwood souls at sea Searching for a harbour light Drifting on endlessly In the bleakest dark of night Will they suffer more Will they reach the shore Will they find the door
Lonely lovers symphony Is a song of the soul Lonely lovers symphony It's for those on their own
Lonely lovers symphony Is a theme just for one Lonely lovers symphony For those hearts so alone
She left one chilly morn Leaving just a perfumed note Low into my heart I cried When I read those lines she wrote Said we should forget that we ever met But I haven't yet
Lonely lovers symphony Play a theme just for me Lonely lovers symphony Play a theme just for me
