Innocenti Evasioni
Composer(s): Lucio Battisti; Mogol
First release by: Lucio Battisti - 1972
Covered by multiple other artists



Che sensazione di leggera follia sta colorando l'anima mia
immaginando preparo il cuscino
qualcuno, è già nell'aria qualcuno, sorriso ingenuo e profumo
il giradischi, le luci rosse e poi
champagne ghiacciato e l'avventura può iniziare ormai
accendo il fuoco e mi siedo vicino
qualcuno, stasera arriva qualcuno, sorrido intanto che fumo
ma come mai tu qui stasera? Ti sbagli sai, non potrei
non aspettavo ti giuro nessuno!
Strana atmosfera, ma cosa dici mia cara?
Non sono prove, no no no: un po' di fuoco per scaldarsi un po'
e poca luce per sognarti, no ?
siediti qui accanto, anima mia ed abbandona la tua gelosia se puoi
combinazione ho un po' di champagne se vuoi, amore
come sei bella, amore, sorridi e lasciati andare!
chi può bussare a quest'ora di sera?
sarà uno scherzo o un amico, e chi lo sa?
no, non alzarti chiunque sia si stancherà
come sei bella amore, ho ancora un brivido in cuore!

Performer(s): Jerry Butler



Never gonna give you up
No matter how you treat me
Never gonna give you up
So don't you think of leavin
Girl, you treat me bad and I know why
Yeah, I've seen you runnin' around with another guy
And you think if you hurt me that I'll go away 
Made it up in my mind that I'm here to stay 
So tell em
Never gonna give you up
Whisper in his ear
No matter how you treat me
Never gonna give you up 
You tell him that Jerry said he'll never let you go
So don't you think of leavin' 
Hey, don't you understand 
What you're doing to the man

Do you see these tears here inn my eyes
Ain't no use in my lyin'
'Cause I really cried 
You think you're gonna take me 
And put me on the shelf
Girl, I'd rather die
Than see you with somebody else
So throw it out of your mind
I'll never leave you 
Though you grieve me and deceive me, yeah
Hey, don't you understand 
What you're doing to the man

My friends all say that I'm your fool
And you're using me like a carpenter uses a tool
And I know their intentions have all been good
Some of them would help me if they could
But I'll never give you up 
Never, never, never, never let you go
No matter what you say 
Don't you underrstand 
That you're killing this man
Never gonna give you up
Never gonna give you up
No matter what you do to me, baby

Innocent And Vain
Composer(s): Nico
Performer(s): Nico



The secrets that I do not know
I cannot understand them
A wanted series printed over
Words are his defences

The battle bracelets do not fit
My favourite gladiator
A fanatic hero piously
Has to be a faker

He is a dangerous creator
A master in his mortal cave
I am a savage violator
A valet innocent and vain

Never Give Up On A Good Thing
Composer(s): Tom Shapiro; Michael Garvin
Performer(s): George Benson



Never give up on a good thing
Remember what makes you happy [Whoa, whoa]
Never give up on a good thing
If love is what you got, you’ve got a lot

Money’s tight, he’s workin' every night
It ain’t easy to keep the flame alive
And when he finally comes home to ya
He’s just too tired to do the things you want to

You can’t help but wonder to yourself
How would it be with someone else
Just keep in mind, every storm ends in time
Love is forever, stay together

(Stay together) When you got something real
(Love forever) That you may never feel again

Never give up on a good thing
Remember what makes you happy [Whoa, whoa]
Never give up on a good thing
If love is what you got, you’ve got a lot

Now you’re the man, you’ve got to understand
She don’t mean to make a scene
Like you, she feels all the weight you’re under
And when she breaks, is it any wonder

I know sometimes it crosses your mind
To get on out and stay hard to find
Before you try, you’d better look in her eyes
Love is forever, stay together

(Stay together) You’ve got something real
(Love forever) That you may never feel again
(You’ve got a lot)

(Stay together)
(Love forever)
You’ve got something real
That you may never feel again

Never give up on a good thing
Remember what makes you happy (Oh, oh)
Never give up on a good thing
If love is what you got, you’ve got a lot

Don’t give up your good thing
Don’t give it, oh, don’t, oh, oh
Don’t give up your good thing
Please don’t, oh, don’t
Don’t live it up, don’t give it up

Never give up on a good thing
Remember what makes you happy (Oh, oh)
Never give up on a good thing
If love is what you got, you’ve got a lot

Never give up on a good thing (Oh, he’s all you need)
Remember what makes you happy (Whoa, whoa)
Never give up on a good thing
If love is what you got, you’ve got a lot

Never give up on a good thing (Oh, he’s all you need)
Remember what makes you happy (Whoa, oh)
Never give up on a good thing

Innamorato
Composer(s): Adelio Cogliati; Claudio Guidetti; Eros Ramazzotti
Performer(s): Gianni Morandi



Come adesso che ho bisogno della verità
scavo tutte le parole in profondità
e se quelle più sincere pesano di più
non le lascerò cadere se mi aiuti tu
E' per questo che ti cerco
per questo chiedo a te
non tenere il cuore spento
se vuoi sentire me...
E se poi tu vuoi capire lo puoi fare già
forse basta riscoprire la semplicità
ritrovare tutto il fiato
per dirtelo così
io che sono sempre stato
come adesso qui...
Innamorato
come forse tu ancora non lo sai
innamorato della vita
di quest'avventura
così vorrei che non finisse mai
che non finisse mai...
Io che ho sempre più bisogno della verità
scavo tutte le parole in profondità
per tirare fuori il meglio, l'anima che c'è
come adesso sto facendo qui davanti a te
Io non cambio questa strada
perché la sento mia
fino a che non ti avrò dato
anche l'ultima energia...
Innamorato
come forse tu ancora non lo sai
innamorato della vita
di quest'avventura
così vorrei che non venisse mai
Innamorato
della nuova primavera che mi dai
di questa musica leggera
che mi scopre ancora
innamorato
più che mai di te
Innamorato
di quest'avventura
così vorrei che non finisse mai
cha non finisse mai
non finisse mai

Never Give Up On A Dream
Composer(s): Rod Stewart; Bernie Taupin; Jim Cregan
Performer(s): Rod Stewart



If there's doubt and you're cold 
don't you worry what the future holds
We've gotta have heroes to teach us all 
to never give up on a dream

Claim the road, touch the sun
no force on earth could stop you run
When your heart bursts like the sun 
never never give up on a dream

Shadows fall, daylight dies
freedom never got a place to hide
Search forever photo finish line 
but never give up on your dream

Crazy notions fill your head 
you gotta break all the records set
Push yourself until the end 
but don't you ever give up on your dream

Now listen to me 
you don't need no restrictions yeah 
Oh, sing it again 
you can't live on sympathy
You just need to go the distance
oh the distance 
that's all you need to be free, to be free
to be free, to be free

Sing a song for me children 
you don't need no restrictions yeah 
you can't live on sympathy
You just need to go the distance
that's all you need to be free

Now listen to me! 
Inspiring all to never lose, 
it'll take a long long time before they fill your shoes 
it'll take somebody, somebody, who's lot like you 
who never gave up on a dream 
No, you never gave up on a dream 
no, you never gave up on a dream

You never, never, never, never 
gave up on a dream

Innamorati
Composer(s): Toto Cutugno
Performer(s): Toto Cutugno; Davide



Tu che mi bevi nel caffe'
tu in ogni uomo vedi me
tu che mi porti via con te
tu che mi pensi in ogni via
a casa, a scuola, in filovia
tu che non puoi restare sola
tu che telefoni ogni ora
e poi non dici una parola
innamorata, innamorata, innamorata
innamorata, innamorata, innamorata

Io che ero il primo in compagnia
e la piu' bella era la mia
dicevo: Donna, tu sei mia
E' stato un caso oppure un gioco
e sei arrivata a poco a poco
tu col tuo sguardo un po' innocente
tu che mi leggi nella mente
senza di te non sono niente
innamorato, innamorato, innamorato
innamorato, innamorato, innamorato

Le corse pazze e poi un fiore
poi abbracciarsi in ascensore
aver la casa per due ore
e poi nascosti, anima mia
poter sentire che sei mia
sei bella quando non lo sai
quando vergogna non ne hai
grazie per quello che mi dai
innamorati, innamorati, innamorati
innamorati, innamorati, innamorati

Inmensidad
Composer(s): Manuel Alejandro
Performer(s): Raphael



Volver contigo es imposible
Aunque regreses de tu vida
Yo no perdono tu camino
Yo no perdono tu destino
Te di a escoger entre dos mundos
Y está rodando por el suelo
No te guste lo suficiente
Ni me llevaste a tu vida
Inmensidad de mi fracaso
Inmensidad de mi agonía
De verte hundida sin remisión
Inmensidad de mi dolor
De verte así, perdida 

Never Can Say Goodbye

I never can say goodbye 
No, no, no I, I never can say goodbye 
Every time I think I've had enough 
and start heading for the door

kissing me right to the core 

It says turn around you fool

and more 
Tell me why is it so? 
Don't wanna let you go 

I never can say goodbye boy

Oh no, no, no I, I never can say goodbye 
[never say goodbye, boy] 
I keep thinking that our problems soon are all gonna work out 
But there's that same unhappy feeling 
there's that anguish, there's that doubt 
It's that same old dizzy hangup 
I Can't do with you or without 
Tell me why is it so? I don't wanna let you go 
I never can say goodbye boy, ooh baby 
I never can say goodbye, no no no no no no 
Hey I never can say goodbye boy,ooh baby 
I never can say goodbye, no no no no no no 

I never can say goodbye, boy, 
I never can say goodbye, no no no no no no

Never Before
Composer(s): Jerry Livingston; Mack David
Performer(s): Dean Martin; Eddie Fisher



Never before has my heart felt a thrill like this
Never before, never before
Never before has the whole world stood still like this
As I gaze at the face I simply adore

After today when they speak about paradise
I'll smile and I'll say, "I've been there once or twice"
For this is that once in a lifetime, the miracle of your kiss
I've never loved like this, never before

Injusticia
Composer(s): Pablo Beltrán Ruiz
Performer(s): Javier Solís



Ya mi vida se acaba
esperando que vuelvas
han pasado los años
sin poderte olvidar

Es injusto que quieras
que me muera sin verte
porque todo en la vida
porque todo en la vida
lo he perdido por ti

Sé bien que has comprendido
el mal que tú me hiciste
y que tal vez por eso
te niegas a volver

Mañana al encontrarnos
no existirá el pasado
te tomaré en mis brazos
te besaré con ansia
y me verás llorar

Sé bien que has comprendido
el mal que tú me hiciste
y que tal vez por eso
te niegas a volver

Mañana al encontrarnos
no existirá el pasado
te tomaré en mis brazos
te besaré con ansia
y me verás llorar

Une nuit que j'étais
À me morfondre
Dans quelque pub anglais
Du cœur de Londres
Parcourant l'Amour Mon
Stre de Pauwels
Me vint une vision
Dans l'eau de Seltz

Tandis que des médailles
D'impérator
Font briller à sa taille
Le bronze et l'or
Le platine lui grave
D'un cercle froid
La marque des esclaves
À chaque doigt

Jusques en haut des cuisses
Elle est bottée
Et c'est comme un calice
A sa beauté
Elle ne porte rien
D'autre qu'un peu
D'essence de Guerlain
Dans les cheveux

À chaque mouvement
On entendait
Les clochettes d'argent
De ses poignets
Agitant ses grelots
Elle avança
Et prononça ce mot 
Alméria 

Never Been In Love
Composer(s): Craig Bickhardt
Performer(s): Randy Meisner



I know you must be somebody else's dream
Please don't go cause it really doesn't matter to me
When I look in your eyes sweet child 
And listen to your heart beating wild
I can't stop burning for you 
I can't stop burning for you 

You make me feel 
Like I've never been in love before 
Don't keep me waiting 
I'm already falling 
I feel like I've never been in love 
And I don't know what to do 
I don't know what to do 

I know you must be wondering what I mean 
Please don't go 
Let me show you just how good it can be 
Look in my eyes sweet child
Listen to my heart beating wild
I can't stop burning for you 
I can't stop burning for you 
(Repeat Chorus)

I know you must be somebody else's dream 
Please don't go
Let me show you just how good it can be 
When I looked in your eyes sweet child
And listened to your heart beating wild
I can't stop burning for you 
I can't stop burning for you

Mi mama ambiciosa me dijo
que tope la raya guaraco

Estos zancuditos

sangre de las venas, mamita
que me estan sacando

Que me estan sacando

Mi amito se ha ido pa’l campo
y me deja mi amita cuidando

Cuando el amo sepa
lo que esta pasando
va a hacer con el cuero, negrito

Never Be The Same
Composer(s): Christopher Cross; Rob Meurer
Performer(s): Christopher Cross



It was good for me
It was good for you
Now nothing either of us can say or do
Can change the way you feel tonight
Sometimes love just slips out of sight

Just one thing before you go
Just one thing that you've got to know
No one will ever touch me that way
The way that you did that very first day

Chorus:
And I'll never be the same without you here
I'll live alone and hide myself behind my tears
And I'll never be the same without your love
I'll live alone and try so hard to rise above

The years go by
There's always someone new
To try and help me forget about you
Time and again, it does me no good
Love never feels the way that it should

I loved you then, I guess I'll love you forever
And even though I know we could never stay together
I'll think of how it could have been
If we could just start all over again

Chorus

It was good for me
It was good for you
Now nothing either of us can say or do
Can change the way you feel today
Sometimes love just slips away

Just one thing before you go
Just one thing that you've got to know
No one will ever touch me that way
The way that you did that very first day

Chorus

Information
Composer(s): Dave Edmunds; Mark Radice
Performer(s): Dave Edmunds



She's been around me all the while
Try as I might, I can't forget her smile
In passing conversation, what did I hear her say?
Where did she come from? 
Who is that woman anyway?
What can I do to change her mind?
Maybe she thinks that I'm just not her kind
I think she wants me but she's trying to play hard to get
When she treats me this way, I wish we'd never met
Information, that's what I need
Some information 
Where did she come from?
Information, that's what I need
Some information
Information, that's what I need
Some information 
Where did she come from?
Information, give me a lead
Some information
The lights go down, the music's loud
She's not around, I lost her in the crowd
I really want her, but she's just a mystery
What have I got to do to make her notice me?
Information, that's what I need
Some information 
Where did she come from?
Information, that's what I need
Some information
Information, that's what I need
Some information 
Where did she come from?
Information, give me a lead
Some information
If only I could find a way
What do I have to do to make her stay?
I've got to find her again and try to steal her heart
What I need is a lead, but I don't know where to start
Information, that's what I need
Some information 
Where did she come from?
Information, that's what I need
Some information
Information, that's what I need
Some information 
Where did she come from?
Information, give me a lead

Chorus
There'll never be anyone else but you for me
Never ever be, just couldn't be, anyone else but you

If I could take my pick of all the girls I've ever known
Then I'd come and pick you out to be my very own

Chorus

A heart that's true and longs for you is all I have to give
All my love belongs to you as long as I may live

Chorus

I never will forget the way you kiss me
And when we're not together, I wonder if you've missed me

'Cause I hope and pray the day will come when you belong to me
Then I'm gonna prove to you how true my love can be
