Not a leaf turns green, not a sky turns blue Not a blade of grass feels the morning dew Not one single child ever seems to laugh Since I loved you last
Not a sun comes out, not a drop of rain Not one single word that relieves the pain Not one cooling breeze, not one warming flame Since I loved you last
Not an ocean rolls, not a river flows Nothing ever moves, nothing ever grows But life's an empty stage, love has left the cast Since I loved you last
Since I loved you last, since I loved you last Not a day goes by I don't want you back No one else's heart could take up all my soul Since I loved you last
Since I loved you last, since I loved you last All I do is pray that you come back While I just go on living in the past Since I loved you last
Pelas Tabelas Composer(s): Chico Buarque Performer(s): Chico Buarque; Familia Roitman
Ando com minha cabeça já pelas tabelas Claro que ninguém se toca com minha aflição Quando vi todo mundo na rua de blusa amarela Eu achei que era ela puxando um cordão Dão oito horas e danço de blusa amarela Minha cabeça talvez faça as pazes assim Quando ouvi a cidade de noite batendo as panelas Eu pensei que era ela voltando pra mim Minha cabeça de noite batendo panelas Provavelmente não deixa a a cidade dormir Quando vi um bocado de gente descendo as favelas Eu achei que era o povo que vinha pedir A cabeça de um homem que olhava as favelas Minha cabeça rolando no Maracanã Quando eu vi a galera aplaudindo de pé as tabelas Eu jurei que era ela que vinha chegando Com minha cabeça já pelas tabelas Claro que ninguém se toca com minha aflição Quando vi todo mundo na rua de blusa amarela Eu achei que era ela puxando um cordão Dão oito horas e danço de blusa amarela Minha cabeça talvez faça as pazes assim Quando ouvi a cidade de noite batendo as panelas Eu pensei que era ela voltando pra mim Minha cabeça de noite batendo panelas Provavelmente não deixa a a cidade dormir Quando vi um bocado de gente descendo as favelas Eu achei que era o povo que vinha pedir A cabeça de um homem que olhava as favelas Minha cabeça rolando no Maracanã Quando eu vi a galera aplaudindo de pé as tabelas Eu jurei que era ela que vinha chegando Com minha cabeça já numa baixela Claro que ninguém se toca com minha aflição Quando vi tudo mundo na rua de blusa amarela Eu achei que era ela puxando um cordão

Walking The Streets In The Rain First performance by: Butch Moore - 1965
My poor heart feels like breaking 'Cause I'll never see you again Still, nobody knows I am crying 'Cause I'm walking the streets in the rain
My tears are mixed through the raindrops And I feel like I can't stand the pain Still, nobody knows I am crying 'Cause I'm walking the streets in the rain
I'm retracing your steps one by one We walk down the street for so long I can still see your face through my teardrops Cause the rain whispers softly, she's gone The tears of the rain will keep falling Till you bring back the sunshine again Still, nobody knows I am crying 'Cause I'm walking the streets in the rain
Still, nobody knows I am crying 'Cause I'm walking the streets in the rain

Since I Kissed My Baby Goodbye Composer(s): Cole Porter Performer(s): Fred Astaire & The Delta Rhythm Boys
Oh, what nights, glory be When my baby and me Used to ramble lovers' lane From sundown to dawn Then a voodoo, I guess Put the jinx on our happiness And the mockin'bird's refrain Is done dead and gone
Evenin' creepin' down the mountain Wakes up Mister Firefly Bullfrog, settin' there Starts a-croakin', but I don't care Since I kissed my baby goodbye South wind shakes the ole magnolia Moon-man light the dingy sky Stars start sprinklin' gold On the river, but still I'm cold Since I kissed my baby goodbye Since my baby and me Parted company I can't see what's the diff if I live or I die Oh Lawd, I'm takin' such a beatin' I'm no good, even cheatin' Since I kissed my baby goodbye

Qué Bueno, Qué Bueno Composer(s): Antonio Figueroa Egia First performance by: Conchita Bautista - 1965
Qué bueno, qué bueno, qué bueno! Saber que tú sientes lo mismo que yo ¡Qué bueno, qué bueno, qué bueno! Saber que estoy dentro de tu corazón ¡Qué bueno, qué bueno, qué bueno! Saber que es sincero el amor que me das ¡Qué bueno, qué bueno, qué bueno! Saber que me espera la felicidad

Peggy Gordon (Traditional) Performer(s): The Corrs
O Peggy Gordon, You are my darling Come sit you down upon my knee And tell to me the very reason Why I am slighted so by thee
I am so deep in love that I can't deny it My heart lies smothered in my breast But it's not for you to let the whole world know it A troubled mind can find no rest
I leaned myself on a cask of brandy It was my fancy, I do declare For when I'm drinking, I'm always thinking Wishing Peggy Gordon was there
I wished I was in a lonesome valley Where womankind cannot be found And the pretty little birds do change their voices And every moment a different sound
I wish I was away in Ingo Far away across the briny sea Sailing over deepest waters Where love nor care never trouble me
Peggy Composer(s): Harry Williams; Neil Moret Performer(s): Art Hickman
Nature's queen in nature's scene is you just you Oh, pretty Peggy, you know it's true weeping willows sigh and peeping birdies cry sigh for, cry for you, and so do I
Roses fair perfume the air for you just you Oh Pretty Peggy, you know they do violets are blue, they're wild about you, too So I'll show I'll be as true to you
Peggy come out and meet me dear for you know in the spring it's ringtime weather Peggy come out and greet me, dear we'll roam the plains and country lanes together (Sweet girlie) We'll play along the moonlit way and as we swing along we'll sing a song or two Peggy, you've knocked my heart a twister, little sister I love you
Peg O' My Heart Composer(s): Alfred Bryan; Fred Fischer Performer(s): Jerry Murad
Oh! my heart's in a whirl Over one little girl I love her Yes, I do!
Although her heart is far away I hope to make her mine some day
Ev'ry beautiful rose Ev'ry violet knows I love her I love her fond and true And her heart fondly sighs As I sing to her eyes Her eyes of blue Sweet eyes of blue, my darling!
Peg o' my heart, I love you We'll never part I love you, dear little girl Sweet little girl Sweeter than the Rose of Erin Are your winnin' smiles endearin'
Peg o' my heart Your glances with Irish art Entrance me Come, be my own Come, make your home in my heart
Since I Don't Have You Composer(s): Joseph Rock; James Beaumont; Walter Lester; John H. Taylor; Joseph Verscharen; Janet Vogel First release by: The Skyliners - 1958 Covered by multiple other artists
I don't have plans and schemes And I don't have hopes and dreams I don't have anything Since I don't have you....
I don't have fond desires And I don't have happy hours I don't have anything Since I don't have you....
I don't have happiness And I guess I never will again, When you walked out on me In walked old misery And he's been here since then...
I don't have love to share And I don't have one who cares.. I don't have anything Since I don't have you... you..you...you.. you...
Peg Composer(s): Walter Becker; Donald Fagen Performer(s): Steely Dan; and various other artists
I've seen your picture Your name in lights above it This is your big debut It's like a dream come true And when you smile for the camera I know they're gonna love it
I like your pin shot I keep it with your letter Done up in blueprint blue It sure looks good on you So won't you smile for the camera I know I'll love you better
Peg It will come back to you Peg It will come back to you Then the shutter falls You see it all in 3-D It's your favorite foreign movie
'T Is Genoeg Composer(s): J. Van Soest First performance by: Conny Vandenbos - 1965
't Is genoeg 'k Heb genoeg van alle spelletjes met vuur 'k Heb genoeg van alle mooie complimentjes en presentjes 't Is genoeg, ik wil gelukkig zijn 't Is genoeg
Wat je mij hebt beloofd leek zo romantisch Maar al gauw bleek dat sprookje een valse schijn En toen jij op die avond in mei onze liefde verspeelde Was dat genoeg Misschien hield jij van mij Ik was met jou zo blij Dat ik mijn leven graag met jou had willen delen Maar dat je altijd liegt En mij bewust bedriegt Is onaanvaardbaar voor een vrouw Die in alles trouw tegen jou dan zeggen zou
't Is genoeg 'k Heb genoeg van alle spelletjes met vuur 'k Heb genoeg van alle mooie complimentjes en presentjes 't Is genoeg, ik wil gelukkig zijn 't Is genoeg
'k Heb veel mannen gekend en ook illusies In romances geloof ik allang niet meer Op den duur vindt toch elk avontuur in verdriet z'n ontknoping Dat is genoeg Ach, droom ik nog steeds van een doodgewone man Een die oprecht en ongeremd van mij kan houden Ik ben het flirten moe Aan ware liefde toe Want ik ben nog een jonge vrouw Die in alles trouw tegen hem dan zeggen zou
't Is genoeg 'k Heb genoeg van alle spelletjes met vuur Ook al maak je mij geen leuke complimenten De momenten van geluk zijn voor mij genoeg
