Si No Estuvieras Tú
Composer(s): José Luis Perales
Performer(s): José Luis Perales
Si no estuvieras tú sentada junto a mi
¿Con quien podria hablar?
Si no estuvieras tú en este amanecer
¿Aquien podria amar?
Si no estuvieras tú
¿Aquien podria dar un trozo de mi alma?
¿A quien podria querer?
¿A quien seria fiel?
Si no estuvieras tú
Si no estuvieras tú cerca de mi
No habria una cancion para inventar
Ni habria una razon para vivir
Ni un sueño que contar
Si no estuvieras tú no habria amor
Ni flores que cuidar en mi blacon
Habria un corazon en soledad
Si no estuvieras tú
Si no estuvieras tú en esta tarde gris
¿Donde andaria yo?
Si no estuvieras tú haciendome sentir
¿Que sentiria yo?
Si no estuvieras tú
¿Aquien le iba a contar que tuve una caida?
¿Qien me iba a levantar?
¿Y quien me iba a ayudar?
Si no estuvieras tú

Si No Estás Conmigo
Composer(s): Luis Martínez Serrano
Performer(s): Lucho Gatica; Javier Solís
Si no estás conmigo soy como alma errante y penando vivo
entre cosas muertas de un mundo vacío
Si no estás conmigo yo me desespero de dolor y hastío
sin calor de nadie, temblando de frío
Es la soledad para mí el infierno de un desesperado
cuando la ansiedad de la espera eterna me ha martirizado
Yo te necesito porque eres mi vida mi único cariño
y me vuelvo loco si no estás conmigo
Es la soledad para mí el infierno de un desesperado
cuando la ansiedad de la espera eterna me ha martirizado
Yo te necesito porque eres mi vida mi único cariño
y me vuelvo loco si no estás conmigo
Pablo Mon Ami Composer(s): Jean Ferrat Performer(s): Jean Ferrat
Pablo mon ami qu'avons-nous permis L'ombre devant nous s'allonge s'allonge Qu'avons-nous permis Pablo mon ami Pablo mon ami nos songes nos songes
Nous sommes les gens de la nuit qui portons le soleil en route Il nous brûle au profond de l'être Nous avons marché dans le noir à ne plus sentir nos genoux Sans atteindre le monde à naître
Pablo mon ami qu'avons-nous permis L'ombre devant nous s'allonge s'allonge Qu'avons-nous permis Pablo mon ami Pablo mon ami nos songes nos songes
Je connais ce souffrir de tout qui donne bouche de tourment Amère comme aubépine A tous les mots à tous les cris à tous les pas les errements Où l'âme un moment se devine
Pablo mon ami qu'avons-nous permis L'ombre devant nous s'allonge s'allonge Qu'avons-nous permis Pablo mon ami Pablo mon ami nos songes nos songes
Pablo mon ami tu disais avec ce langage angoissant Où se font paroles étranges N'est large espace que douleur et n'est univers que de sang Si loin que j'aille rien n'y change
Pablo mon ami qu'avons-nous permis L'ombre devant nous s'allonge s'allonge Qu'avons-nous permis Pablo mon ami Pablo mon ami nos songes nos songes
Pablo mon ami le temps passe et déjà s'effacent nos voix On n'entend plus même un coeur battre Tout n'était-il que ce qu'il fut tout n'était-il que ce qu'on voit Tout n'était-il que ce théâtre
Pablo mon ami qu'avons-nous permis L'ombre devant nous s'allonge s'allonge Qu'avons-nous permis Pablo mon ami Pablo mon ami nos songes nos songes

Zion's Daughter (Traditional) Performer(s): Boney M.
Zion's daughter, now your heart is full of joy In a cradle in the manger lies the Holy Boy
Zion's daughter, with your sweet angelic smile Holding in your arms the Christ Child, resting for awhile
Now the world is waiting, People want to hear what in Bethlehem had happened, that have brought the Saviour near Now high hope starts rising for another day With eternal love and justice finally on the way

Zion's daughter, with your sweet angelic smile Holding in your arms the Christ Child, resting for awhile
Zion's daughter, now your heart is full of joy In a cradle in the manger lies the Holy Boy
Zion's daughter, with your sweet angelic smile Holding in your arms the Christ Child, resting for awhile
That's the way it happened many years ago, with the sky above the shining in a wonderous stroll
Now the world is waiting, People want to hear what in Bethlehem had happened, that all will say you're near
Zion's daughter, now your heart is full of joy In a cradle in the manger lies the Holy Boy

'Zat You, Santa Claus? Composer(s): James Fox Performer(s): Louis Armstrong; and various other artists
'Zat You, Santa Claus?
Gifts I'm preparing for some Christmas sharing But I pause because Hanging my stocking I can hear a knocking 'Zat you, Santa Claus?
Sure is dark out, ain't the slightest spark out 'Pon my slackened jaw Who's there? Who is it stopping for a visit 'Zat you, Santa Claus?
Are you bringing a present for me Something pleasantly pleasant for me That is just what I've been waiting for Would you mind slipping it under the door?
Cold winds are howling, or could that be growling My legs feel like straws My my oh me my, kindly would you reply 'Zat you, Santa Claus?
Hanging the stocking, I can hear a knocking 'Zat you, Santa Claus? I say, who's there, who is it, are you stopping for a visit 'Zat you, Santa Claus?
Oh there, Santa, you gave me a scare Now stop teasing cause I know you're there We don't believe in no goblins today But I can't explain why I'm shaking that way
Bet I can see ol' Santa in the keyhole I'll get to the cause One peek and I'll try there, oh-oh, there's an eye there 'Zat you, Santa Claus?
Please, please, pity my knees Say that's you, Santa Claus!
From Lover To Loser Walter Kent, Harry Warren Performer(s): Dean Martin
(From lovers to losers, from lovers to losers)
From lovers to losers that's me that's me For your lips aren't willing like they used to be You once were so hungry for my embrace Now goodbye is written all over your face
I'm fallin' from heaven for I know we're gonna part The fall may not kill me but it's bound to break my heart Yes, lovers to losers you made that clear I walked in a laughing but I'm leaving with tears
I'm fallin' from heaven for I know we're gonna part The fall may not kill me but it's bound to break my heart Yes, lovers to losers you made that clear I walked in a laughing but I'm leaving with tears...
You're My Christmas Present Composer(s): Jimmy Beaumont; Joe Rock Performer(s): Jimmy Beaumont & The Skyliners
Ah-ah-ah The tree is all trimmed now The fireplace is aglow And outside quiet streets Are all covered with snow So darling let me tell you On this day of days Baby, you're my Christmas present My Christmas past, my Christmas always
In the night, church bells ring Their message, a cheer And somewhere canvassing Soon Santa will be here And this I swear as into Your warm eyes I gaze Baby you're my Christmas present My Christmas past, my Christmas always
So on this silent night Let me hold you tight And make you know just how good love can be There's no gift of hope And no treasure untold That's as precious as you are to me
The stars twinkle on high Our world is so fine And I wish you Merry Christmas And as you pour the wine For you, this toast my darling As my glass I raise Baby you're my Christmas present My Christmas past, my Christmas always You're my Christmas always
Si Maman Si Composer(s): Michell Berger Performer(s): France Gall
Tous mes amis sont partis Mon cur a déménagé Mes vacances c'est toujours Paris Mes projets c'est continuer Mes amours c'est inventer
Si, maman, si Si, maman, si Maman, si tu voyais ma vie Je pleure comme je ris Si, maman, si Mais mon avenir reste gris Et mon cur aussi
Et le temps défile comme un train Et moi je suis à la fenêtre Je suis si peu habile que demain Le bonheur passera peut-être Sans que je sache le reconnaître
Si, maman, si Si, maman, si Maman, si tu voyais ma vie Je pleure comme je ris Si, maman, si Mais mon avenir reste gris Et mon cur aussi
Mon cur est confortable, bien au chaud Et je lasse passer le vent Mes envies s'éteignent, je leur tourne le dos Et je m'endors doucement Sans chaos ni sentiment
Si, maman, si Si, maman, si Maman, si tu voyais ma vie Je pleure comme je ris Si, maman, si Mais mon avenir reste gris Et mon cur aussi
Si, maman, si Si, maman, si Maman, si tu voyais ma vie Je pleure comme je ris Si, maman, si Mais mon avenir reste gris Et mon cur aussi

Girls, Don't Refuse To Kiss A Soldier Composer(s): Karl Davis Performer(s): Karl & Harty
Oh girls, don't refuse to kiss a soldier For you know that he is fightin' for your peace And he is your Uncle Sammy's nephew While you are your Uncle Sammy's niece
Oh girls, don't refuse to kiss a soldier Or a sailor or a big ol' tough marine For they'll show the Japs and old man Hitler The toughest bunch that they have ever seen
Oh, tramp, tramp, tramp, the boys are marchin' Marchin', marchin', marchin' off to war And as you watch them go, you know that many Will never see you pretty girls anymore
Oh girls, won't you let him smell your powder And lay your little head upon his arm For the powder that he smells across the ocean Is the kind that does a fellah lots of harm
I didn't write this little song for money Oh, money isn't what I wrote it for I wrote it when I found that I was drafted I wrote it 'cause I'm goin' off to war
Oh girls, don't refuse to kiss a soldier For you know that he is fightin' for your peace And he is your Uncle Sammy's nephew While you are your Uncle Sammy's niece

Look at us now, part of it all In spite of it all, we're still around Lovers in love, just like we were Being apart's a lonely sound When people ask how we stay together I say you never let me down And you make it feel like Christmas Even when things go wrong I hear the sound of Christmas in your song All year long Look at the sun shining on me Nowhere could be a better place Lovers in love, that's what we are I reach for that star out there in space 'Cause you make it feel like Christmas Even when things go wrong I hear the sound of Christmas in your song All year long Sleepy we are, but happy together Sounds of forever greet the day So wake up the kids, put on some tea Light up the tree.

Si L'on Pouvait Vraiment Parler Composer(s): Michel Berger Performer(s): France Gall
Si l'on pouvait vraiment parler Je te décrirais mes poupées Qui ne sont plus que des chiffons Et je me souviens de leur nom Et les secrets qu'elles racontaient
Si l'on pouvait vraiment parler Je te décrirais la maison Où mon père m'a embrassée Peut-être plus que de raison Si l'on pouvait vraiment parler
Si l'on pouvait vraiment parler Si l'on pouvait vraiment parler
Si l'on pouvait vraiment parler Je te parlerais des miroirs Qui renvoyaient mes cheveux blonds Qui me faisait m'apercevoir De ce que voulaient les garçons
Si l'on pouvait vraiment parler Je te dirais comment je l'ai rencontré Comment j'ai changé de famille Tout en restant petite fille Au fond rien n'a vraiment changé
Si l'on pouvait vraiment parler Si l'on pouvait vraiment parler
Si l'on pouvait vraiment parler Je te dirais que je n'ai jamais pleuré Sauf quand je suis très énervée Et qu'il ne sait pas dire qu'il m'aime Ce n'serais pas un vrai problème
Si l'on pouvait vraiment parler Je dirais que la vie s'est elle-même chargée De me fabriquer un bonheur Dont je ne sais pas profiter Et que mes rêves me font peur
Si l'on pouvait vraiment parler Si l'on pouvait vraiment parler
Et je te demanderais de m'emmener De tout comprendre sans me parler
Givin' Out Of Givin' In Composer(s): Ben Peters Performer(s): Skeeter Davis
Each time that you come dragging in at two or three o'clock You promise you won't stay out late again And every time I take you back but now that's gonna stop 'Cause baby I'm giving out of giving in
There's lipstick on your shirt again and I know it ain't mine Don't try to tell me you've been out with friends The last time I believed you when you handed me that line But baby I'm giving out of giving in I'm giving out of giving in
I'm tired of playing games where you're the only one who wins I've given into you so much the givings almost gone What happens in the future all depends You may come walking in one night and find yourself alone 'Cause baby, I'm giving out of giving in
Yeah, I'm giving out of giving in I'm tired of playing games where you're the only one who wins I've given into you so much the givings almost gone What happens in the future all depends You may come walking in one night and find yourself alone 'Cause baby, I'm giving out of giving in
Yesterday's Christmas Composer(s): Bobby Sherman Performer(s): Bobby Sherman
I can remember the Christmases I've seen By the things that most people know With fresh pine tree smells, songs like 'Jingle Bells' Going for sleigh rides in the snow
The streets of the city became a crystal charm And the dime store Santa Claus appeared And to the children's delight at his upcoming flight The World waited as the hour drew near
Then the day would arrive, much too early for most And the spirit of giving ran high And the new train would roar on the living room floor And the air would fill with hot pumpkin pie
I used to know my Christmases this way I am not sad, but those times are now through Because Christmas this time has been made to be mine Because Christmas this year I'll be with you
