Le Chant De Mallory Composer(s): Pierre Cour; André Popp Performer(s): Rachel - 1964
Redis-moi Mallory La chanson que tu me chantais La chanson de l'été Dans le bleu du ciel irlandais Tu n'avais que seize ans Moi, j'étais encore une enfant Et la nuit qui venait Nous avait pris pour des amants Toi, Mallory, tu chantais pour moi Le vent emmêlait nos cheveux Et je ne sais plus très bien pourquoi Nous avons fermé les yeux Souviens-toi, Mallory Nous avons attendu le jour En rêvant, tous les deux Je crois bien que c'était l'amour Où est-elle, Mallory La chanson que tu me chantais La chanson de l'été Dans le bleu du ciel irlandais? Le soleil se couchait En jetant de l'or dans tes yeux On jouait à s'aimer Mais pour toi ce n'était qu'un jeu Oh Mallory, où est-il ce chant Ce chant d'amour de l'été? Vers quel pays est parti le vent Le vent qui l'a emporté La chanson, Mallory? Je la garderais pour toujours Car c'était la chanson La chanson d'un premier amour La la la la la la... Car c'était la chanson La chanson d'un premier amour

Peace of Mind Now if you're feelin' kinda low 'bout the dues you've been paying Future's coming much too slow And you wanna run but somehow you just keep on stayin' Can't decide on which way to go Yeah, yeah, yeah

Now you're climbin' to the top of the company ladder Hope it doesn't take too long Can'tcha you see there'll come a day when it won't matter Come a day when you'll be gone
I understand about indecision But I don't care if I get behind People li vin' in competition All I want is to have my peace of mind
Take a look ahead, take a look ahead, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...
Now everybody's got advice they just keep on givin' Doesn't mean too much to me Lot's of people out to make-believe they're livin' Can't decide who they should be
I understand about indecision But I don't care if I get behind People li vin' in competition All I want is to have my peace of mind
Hello again, du ich möchte dich heut noch sehen Ich will dir gegenüberstehen Viel zu lang war die Zeit
[Uhuhu, Ich sag nur hello again, uhuhu]
Ein Jahr lang war ich ohne dich Ich brauchte diese Zeit für mich Kann sein, daß ich ein anderer bin Als der, der damals von dir ging
Ich geh die Strasse lang wie immer Da ist noch Licht in deinem Zimmer Ich weiß, du wirst mich nicht viel fragen Wie damals werd ich einfach sagen
Hello again, ich sag einfach hello again Du ich möchte dich heut noch sehen Dort wo alles begann Hello again, dort am Fluß, wo die Bäume stehen Will ich dir in die Augen sehen Ob ich dableiben kann
[Uhuhu, Ich sag nur hello again, uhuhu]
Noch ein paar Stufen bis zur Tür Ich spür ein wenig Angst in mir Wie kann ich nur so sicher sein Vielleicht lebst du nicht mehr allein
Ich würde gern für immer bleiben Das kann ich nicht allein entscheiden Vielleicht wird uns noch viel verbinden Vielleicht mußt du erst zu mir finden
Peace In The Valley Composer(s): Thomas A. Dorsey Performer(s): Sam Cooke; and various other artists
O, there will be peace in the valley for me, one day There will be peace in the valley for me, I pray
No sadness, no sorrow, no more trouble there will be There will be peace in the valley for me
You know the bear will be gentle you know wolves gonna be so tamed
Mighty lion, if you will right now, will lie down with the lamb, oh yes I know the horse from the wild Will be led by a little child and I´ll be changed from this creature
There will be peace in the valley for me, one day No sadness, no, sorrow, no more trouble there will be There will be peace in the valley, I pray
Sin Luz Composer(s): Espigul Performer(s): José Feliciano
Yo nunca pude ver, ni siquiera al nacer, un pedacito de cielo no sé cómo es el sol, ni del campo el verdor, la luna, los luceros
La vida deja en mí el amargo sabor de no haberla vivido la noche que me envuelve me asfixia más y más y me siento perdido
El mundo y su maldad, me quieren destrozar y robarme la calma pero por más que intenten no pueden ya romper la inmensa paz de mi alma más yo sé que al final de esta senda fatal siempre tendré el consuelo y allá en la eternidad al fin podré mirar mi pedacito de cielo
El mundo y su maldad, me quieren destrozar y robarme la calma......
Peace Frog Composer(s): John Densmore; Robbie Krieger; Ray Manzarek; Jim Morrison Performer(s): The Doors; and various other artists
There's blood in the streets it's up to my ankles Blood in the streets it's up to my knee Blood in the streets of the town of Chicago Blood on the rise, it's following me Just about the break of day She came, then she drove away, sunlight in her hair
Blood on the streets runs a river of sadness Blood in the streets, it's up to my thigh The river runs down the legs of the city The women are crying red rivers of weeping She came in town and then she drove away sunlight in her hair
Indians scattered on dawn's highway Bleeding ghosts crowd the young child's fragile Egg-shell mind
Blood in the streets of the town of New Haven Blood stains the roofs and the palm trees of Venice Blood in my love in the terrible summer Bloody red sun of fantastic L.A. Blood screams her brain as the chop off her fingers Blood will be born in the birth of a nation Blood is the rose of mysterious union
There's blood in the streets it's up to my ankles Blood in the streets it's up to my knee Blood in the streets of the town of Chicago Blood on the rise, it's following me
Peace - An End Composer(s): Robert Fripp; Peter Sinfield Performer(s): King Crimson
Peace is a word Of the sea and the wind Peace is a bird who sings As you smile. Peace is the love Of a foe as a friend Peace is the love you bring To a child
Searching for me You look everywhere Except beside you Searching for you You look everywhere But not inside you
Peace is a stream From the heart of a man Peace is a man, whose breadth Is the dawn Peace is a dawn On a day without end Peace is the end, like death Of the war
Ein altes Gasthaus steht am Straßenrand irgendwo in Wales zwischen Meer und Land über der Tür steht der Name "Laura Jane"
Es war schon Mitternacht ich hatte mich verfahr'n vor dem gasthaus hielt ich den Wagen an ich hatte Licht geseh'n eine Frau in Weiß ließ mich wortlos ein
ich schien der einzige Gast dieser Nacht zu sein lächelnd sagte sie: "Ich bin Laura Jane"
Und nach dem Essen trank ich Wein mit ihr und sie lachte und sang und tanzte mit mir und sie sagte: "Vergiß nicht Laura Jane!"
You are the one for you l've waited night and day
You are the one with you I'll never ever go astray You are the one you are the reason and the rhyme
You are the one I'm gonna love you 'til the end of time!
Am nächsten Morgen war das Haus ganz leer und ich fuhr weiter entlang dem Meer erst am nächsten Ort blieb ich zum Tanken steh'n
Kam ins Gespräch mit einem alten Mann und fing von der Nacht zu erzählen an von der seltsamen Nacht mit Laura Jane...
Und der Alte wurde bleich und sein Atem schwer er starrte mich an und dann sagte er "Sie ist schon seit hundert Jahren tot... vergiß Laura Jane vergiß Laura Jane!"
Sin Luna Composer(s): Rubén Goldín Juan Carlos Baglietto
Un hilo de plata recorre su cara tímido el humo de la taza de té es abril, llovizna y dejadez Esta noche de bruma tiene cierto perfume de madera oriental pero afuera el hambre y el frio le descosen los recuerdos a cualquiera Vos sos el mismo, yo soy otro barco pequeño, cruzando el mar y es aquí donde muere la sed El otoño dulce gotea su muerte barriendo el patio de la niñez el instinto y el sueño animal te hacen temblar porque ves que los años se pasan la luz sigue estando siempre igual de lejos, y cerrás los ojos, ni querás mirar
Pé De Sonhos Composer(s): Petrúcio Maia; Brandão Performer(s): Raimundo Fagner
No quintal Por detrás de casa Tem um pé de sonho Que não pára de florar, florar a noite inteira Cada sonho seu me faz sorrir e até cantar Rua do Ouro, uma rua senhora nada adorada Não é uma rua é uma estrada cheia De casa do lado Deixa eu falar dessa rua Que ninguém pode entender Deixa eu dizer que ela é cheia De ouro mas ninguém vê Deixa eu dizer que ela é cheia De ouro mas ninguém vê
Maria, Mariazinha que outro dia se foi Saiu cantando na estrada Voltou chorando depois Hoje ela canta sozinha Chamando pelo luar Hoje ela chora baixinho Que é pra ninguém escutar Hoje ela chora baixinho Que é pra ninguém escutar Que olhar escondes o viço Dos teus olhos já sem cor Também só tenho dois braços Posso colher uma flor Posso plantar uma rua Na estrada que vês agora Posso seguir pela estrada Quando for chegada a hora Posso seguir pela estrada Quando for chegada a hora
Laiskotellen Composer(s): Lasse Mårtenson; Sauvo Puhtila First performance by: Lasse Mårtenson - 1964
On taaskin sunnuntai ja haalarit jo nurkkaan jäädä sai eikä kiire laisinkaan, herätyskellokin on hiljaa vaan
On aamu sunnuntai ja vaikka päivä päivän kestää vain siitä paljon saada voi, tyytyväinen laulu soi
Aikaa kuljeskella omia teitä, keventyneitä, pidentyneitä aivan minne vain aikaa ajatella juttua monta, uskomatonta, tuntematonta aivan kuinka vain käskemättä laulaa
On taaskin sunnuntai ja vaikka onkin kohta maanantai ei voi kiire ahdistaa laiskureita laulattaa
Aikaa seisoskella siinä ja tässä, kyselemässä, pitelemässä seinää paikallaan aikaa opetella elämän rytmi, elämän tyyli, elämän laulu rytmin oikean
Siitä paljon saada voi, tyytyväinen laulu soi laiskureita laulattaa hoi laari-laari-laa hoi laari-laari-laa... laiskureita laulattaa
Payday Blues Composer(s): Dan Hicks Performer(s): Dan Hicks; and various other artists
I got my paycheck today I think I'll spend it like a crazy fool Or I'll give it all away Something like the golden rule And my paycheck ain't hay But somehow I just don't seem to care Ever since she went away And left my little house so cold and bare And I won't tell 'em at the bank What I'm gonna do with all my dough I'll just smile and tell `em thanks For it's better than they shouldn't know
Then I'll go and have a drink At a little place where I can sit and think 'Cause my baby went away And left me here on my payday
Paaaaaaaaday was never like this Paaaaaaaaday, but where is my happiness? I don't know!
Paaaaaaaaday was never like this Paaaaaaaaday, but where is my happiness? I don't know
Paaaaaaaaday was never like this Paaaaaaaaday, but where is my happiness? I don't know
Ti Amo, du sagtest Ti Amo das heißt ich lieb dich so Was ist geblieben von deinem mich lieben von hundert mal Ti Amo sagest du das nur so weil es dazu gehört Worte sind billig sind machmal so billig Man redet sich selber ein alles das muß so sein Hast das auch du getan? Sinnliche Spiele und falsche Gefühle und nun willst du wieder ein neues Ziel finden willst dich nicht mehr an mich binden Stehst da, gepackt ist dein Koffer was gewesen, ist gewesen
Dein Ti Amo, dein schönes Ti Amo, war nur Begleitmusik für Sommertage, mehr kam nicht in Frage Und ich hab geglaubt, das mit uns geht so weiter jetzt bin ich leider gescheiter Aber ich kann nicht bestreiten daß es schön war, ja so schön war
So geh den Weg, du hast ihn selbst gewählt Wenn dich hier nichts mehr hält Ich werde leben, auch ohne dich leben Und werden die Tage für mich so schwer sein werden die Nächte auch leer sein Irgendwann werd ich vergessen es wird Schluß sein denn es muß sein Du willst es so, ich weiß, du willst es so Wann sagst du anderswo Ti Amo, Ti Amo, Ti Amo, Ti Amo, Ti Amo? Du willst ein neues Ziel finden dich nicht mehr an mich binden Stehst da gepackt ist dein Koffer was gewesen, ist gewesen

Sin Hijo Ni Arbol Ni Libro Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
¿Quién lo ayuda a ir al cielo?, por favor ¿Quién puede asegurarle la otra vida? Apiádense del hombre que o tuvo Ni hijo, ni árbol, ni libro
Sé quien pasó la vida maldiciendo Recorriendo en silencio viejas calles De mujer en mujer como un mendigo Sin hijo, ni árbol, ni libro Sin hijo, ni árbol, ni libro Los hombres sin historia son la historia Grano a grano se forman largas playas Y luego viene el viento y las revuelve Borrando las pisadas y los nombres Sin hijo, ni árbol, ni libro
Quiero un día saber que un guardaparques Se sentaba cansado en algún banco Pobre hombre de arena, campesino Borracho de las sombras de mi calle Sin hijo, ni árbol, ni libro
Díganlo todo un día alguna vez Cuando no haya miserias y desastres Apiádense del hombre que no tuvo Ni hijo, ni árbol, ni libro
El que apretó una tuerca con acierto El que dijo de pronto una palabra El que no le importaba ser un hombre Sin hijo, ni árbol, ni libro Sin hijo, ni árbol, ni libro
Payback Time Composer(s): Charlie Daniels Performer(s): Charlie Daniels
The hero in the big white house Shakes his head and moans about The misery of his fellow man Just as though he really cared While the hand he holds behind his back Conceals the truth from those he is deceivin' The camera rolls another reel While the robots on the hill Are dashing madly to and fro Smiling at the status quo While in the secret, smoke-filled rooms They sell the very air that you are breathing When it's payback time And you take that final ride When there is no place to run to And there ain't no place to hide The supreme court of the universe Where justice is not blind And no prisoners will be taken When it's payback time Another day, another knife Another precious unborn life Will never see the light of day Will never run or jump or play It's just another sacrifice To that greenback god of choice you are serving Their blood cries out to be avenged And someday you will cower and cringe Where the books don't lie and the judge don't deal No high-priced lawyers to appeal Where the verdict is eternal And you can't escape the verdict you're deserving When it's payback time and heaven rules supreme When your gold and silver's worthless And you stand before the King When your nightmares are reality And there is no exit sign And it's too late for repentance When it's payback time The sun comes up the pendulum swings And each new frightening morning brings The children's cries, the cannon roar More loudly than the day before The wax of time is drippin' down From both ends of that candle burning brightly A mighty shout, a trumpet blast When the last is first and the first is last The world is hushed and time stands still And the final chapter is fulfilled The sky will part each knee will bow To greet the awesome hour of His returning When it's payback time And the sheep are gathered in When the roll is called up yonder And eternity begins When the wedding supper's ready And the faithful called to dine Who'll be sitting at the table When it's payback time Payback time
