Somebody Wants To Love You Composer(s): Mike Appel - Jim Cretecos - Wes Farrell The Partridge Family; The Mr. T Experience
On your own, far away from home There doesn't seem to be a friend when you're alone People stare, you wonder if they care So, you turn your back on someone with love to spare Try to see, it's gotta be Lovin' one another is the only possibility So, when you're down and losin' ground Don't get to thinkin' love can't be found
Hey, stop, stop! And look around Somebody wants to love you Stop, stop! And turn around Somebody wants to love you Somebody wants to love you
Ooooo....
Hey, you! It's nothin' new Love will be around no matter what you do Or will you try every alibi and fool yourself some more then wonder why So try to see, it's gotta be When you turn your back on love, you miss the opportunity And once again, you're at a dead end And nowhere to turn without a friend
Hey, stop, stop! And look around Somebody wants to love you Stop, stop! And turn around Somebody wants to love you Somebody wants to love you
Love you....
Hey, stop, stop! And look around Somebody wants to love you Stop, stop! And turn around Somebody wants to love you Somebody wants to love you
Hey, stop, stop! And look around Somebody wants to love you Stop, stop! And turn around Somebody wants to love you Somebody wants to love you ...
Uncle Penn Composer(s: Bill Monroe Performer(s): Bill Monroe; and various other artists
Oh, the people would come from far away They'd dance all night till the break of day When the caller hollered ""Do-se-do"" He knew Uncle Penn was ready to go
Chorus: Late in the evenin' about sundown High on the hill and above the town Uncle Penn played the fiddle, oh how it would ring You can hear it talk, you can hear it sing
He played an old piece he called ""Soldier's Joy"" And the one called ""The Boston Boy"" The greatest of all was ""Jenny Lynn"" To me that's where the fiddle begins
(Repeat Chorus)
I'll never forget that mournful day When Uncle Penn was called away They hung up his fiddle, hung up his bow They knew it was time for him to go

Pero yo, las horas de abstinencia estoy fatal Todas resultan tan frías Que al final me gana con su vena natural Si yo estoy mal me da energía
Su melena femenina, su corazón confidencial Sus ojos mirando en estéreo ¿Quién será? - Nadie sabe quién La chica que yo quiero, quiero Made in Spain

Go Composer(s): Julie Forsyth First performance by: Scott Fitzgerald - 1988
I never felt like this before Seein' you again only makes me sad I recall the times when we Were in love and had everything It makes me so sad
Time is meant to heal the pain I thought was gone Seein' you again has made it carry on
Go before you break my heart once more I know that's what you come here for Go before you say 'I love you' the way you did The day before you walked away from me
Lookin' back on the times we had Things were beautiful then But how quick they've changed One day you were in love with me Then the next, so suddenly, he came along
Time is meant to heal the pain I thought was gone Seein' you again has made it carry on, yeah
Go before you break my heart once more I know that's what you come here for Go before you say 'I love you' the way you did The day before you walked away from me
(Go before you break my heart once more) Just go, just go away (I know that's what you come here for) Just leave me behind to face another day Go before you say 'I love you' the way you did The day before you walked away from me
Und Es War Sommer Composer(s): Christian Heilburg; Joachim Heider Performer(s): Peter Maffay
Es war ein schoener Tag, der letzte im Augst Die Sonne brannte so, als haette sie's gewusst Die Luft war flirrend heiss und um allein zu sein Sagte ich den ander'n: Ich hab' heut keine Zeit
Dann traf ich sie und sah in ihre Augen Und irgendwie hatt' ich das Gefuehl Als winkte sie mir zu und schien zu sagen: Komm setz dich zu mir:
Ich war 16 und sie 31 Und ueber Liebe wusste ich nicht viel Sie wusste alles und sie liess mich spueren Ich war kein Kind mehr
Und es war Sommer ...
Sie gab sich so, als sei ich ueberhaupt nicht da Und um die Schultern, trug sie nur ihr langes Haar Ich war verlegen und wusste nicht wohin Mit meinem Blick, der wie gefesselt an ihr hing
Ich kann verstehen, hoerte ich sie sagen Nur weil du jung bist, tust du nicht was du fuehlst Doch bleib bei mir bis die Sonne rot wird Dann wirst du sehen
Wir gingen beide hinunter an den Strand Und der Junge nahm schuechtern ihre Hand Doch als ein Mann sah ich die Sonne aufgeh'n Und es war Sommer und es war Sommer
Und es war Sommer Das erste Mal im Leben Und es war Sommer Das allererste Mal Doch als ein Mann sah ich die Sonne aufgeh'n Und es war Sommer
Und es war Sommer Das erste Mal im Leben Und es war Sommer Das allererste Mal Doch als ein Mann sah ich die Sonne aufgeh'n Und es war Sommer

Anybody find me, somebody to love
Despierto y no siento estar vivo no puedo mantenerme de pie soy reflejo de un ser destruido ¿no lo ves? ¡no estoy bien!
He gastado mi tiempo paseandome hay alivio y de nuevo me vi caer no hay nada, no hay nadie una simple forma de hallar el amor
Anybody find me, somebody can love Anybody find me, somebody can love
Ese estado de necesidad ¿sera que con el tiempo crece? llevandome despacio, suicidandome no queda un solo rastro de mi
No hay nada, no hay nadie una simple forma de hallar el amor
Under Fiesta Stars From the film "Under Fiesta Stars" Composer(s): Gene Autry; Fred Rose Performer(s): Gene Autry; Richard O'Brien
We met by a stream one night in Mexico The moment stood still under fiesta stars I learned how to dream that night in Mexico My heart felt a thrill under fiesta stars
The night spoke of splendour The lanterns were low I had to surrender The thrill seemed to grow The music was playing We danced until dawn My thoughts began straying And then she was gone
Tonight there's a stream somewhere in Mexico Where lanterns that glow blend with the soft guitars I wish I could dream again of Mexico And still feel the thrill under fiesta stars
(Instrumental Interlude)

Under God, America's been blessed Under God, brought through every trial and test We are sheltered by the mercy He chose to give In privilege and abundance, this nation lives
Under God, Freedom has survived Under God, we need to recognize We're dependent on His goodness Indebted to His care Maybe more than any people anytime or anywhere Still our only hope and prayer is Under God
When we pledge allegiance now, it's Under God Those words have shaped the land that we hold dear Some insist it's not allowed To acknowledge that we need Him now But it has never been so clear
Under God, America's been blessed Under God, brought through every trial and test We are sheltered by the mercy He chose to give In privilege and abundance, this nation lives

Nauravat Silmät Muistetaan First performance by: Boulevard - 1988
Päivien pyörteessä, toisien joukossa helppo on kulkea yksin Ihmistenkuoria, tyhjiä kohdata vaan Outoja ilmeitä, kylmiä katseita, muutamat ilmettä aivan Kulkevat, katsovat, tuskinpa kuulevatkaan
Astutaan ulos kuoresta uuteen maisemaan Avataan korvat kuulemaan, rohkeesti vaan rentoudutaan Heitetään turha jännitys pois ja nauretaan Nauravat silmät muistetaan, ilmeikkäät vaan huomioidaan
Ihmistenkuorista, vanhoista nuorista, kaikki on toisinaan yksin Kaikkien huolia ystävyys helpottaa voi Hauskoja ilmeitäa, heiliä katseita, uusia tuulia aivan Katsovat, kuulevat, naurussaan riemu jo soi
Astutaan ulos kuoresta uuteen maisemaan Avataan korvat kuulemaan, rohkeesti vaan rentoudutaan Heitetään turha jännitys pois ja nauretaan Nauravat silmät muistetaan, ilmeikkäät vaan huomioidaan
Heitetään turha jännitys pois ja nauretaan Nauravat silmät muistetaan, ilmeikkäät vaan huomioidaan Nauravat silmät muistetaan, ilmeikkäät vaan huomioidaan
