Dal cucuzzolo della montagna con la neve alta così nella valle noi scenderemo con ai piedi un paio di sci-sci!
Dal cucuzzolo della montagna sotto a un cielo tinto col blu e con in testa un passamontagna scenderemo sempre più giù!
Scivolando con gli sci scivolando con gli sci scivolando con gli sci con una lunga lunga lunga seggiovia sulla cima tutta bianca torneremo!

You Don't Miss Your Water Composer(s): William Bell and various other artists
In the beginning you really loved me But I was blind and I could not see But when you left me, oh, how I cried You don't miss your water till your well runs dry
I was a playboy, I could not be true I couldn't believe I really loved you But when you left me, oh, how I cried You don't miss your water till your well runs dry
In the beginning you really loved me But I was blind and I could not see But when you left me, oh, how I cried You don't miss your water till your well runs dry You don't miss your water till your well runs dry
You Don't Mess Around With Jim Composer(s): Jim Croce Performer(s): Jim Croce; and various other artists
Uptown's got its hustlers The Bowry's got its bums Forty-second street's got Big Jim Walker He's a pool-shootin' son of a gun Well he's big and dumb as a man can come But he's stronger than a country hoss And when the bad folks all get together at night You know they all call Big Jim "boss" (Just because ...) (They say ...)
Chorus: You don't tug on Superman's cape You don't spit into the wind You don't pull the mask of the old Lone Ranger And you don't mess around with Jim (Ba-doo-da-doo-doo doo-doo-doo-doo doot) Well out of South Alabama come a country boy He said I'm lookin' for a man named Jim I am a pool-shootin' boy, my name is Willie McCoy But back home they call me Slim He said I'm lookin' for the king of forty-second street He's drivin' a drop-top Cadillac And last week he took all my money, and it may sound funny But I come to get my money back (And everybody say, Jack -- don't you know that...)
(Chorus)
Well a hush fell over the pool room When Jimmy come boppin' in off the street And when the cuttin' was done, the only part that wasn't bloody Was the soles of the big man's feet He was cut in 'bout a hundred places And he was shot in a couple more And you better believe they sung a different kind of story When Big Jim hit the floor (And now they say) You don't tug on Superman's cape You don't spit into the wind You don't pull the mask of the old Lone Ranger And you don't mess around with Slim

It's all because of you I'm feeling sad and blue You went away Now my love is just a rainy day I love you so How much you'll never know You've gone away and left me lonely
Untouchable memories Seemed to keep haunting me Of love so true That once turned all my gray skies blue But you disappeared Now my eyes are filled with tears I'm wishin' you were here with me Soft with love are my thoughts of you Now that you're gone I don't know what to do
If only you were here You'd wash away my tears The sun would shine And once again you'll be mine all mine But in reality Your love will never be 'Cause you took your love away from me Hoooo-ooooh-ooooh
If only you were here You'd wash away my tears The sun would shine And once again you'll be mine all mine But in reality Your love will never be 'Cause you took your love away from me Hoooo-ooooh, baby You took your love away from me
You Don't Love Me Anymore Composer(s): Weird Al Yankovic Performer(s): Weird Al Yankovic
We've been together for so very long But now things are changing, oh I wonder what's wrong? Seems you don't want me around The passion is gone and the flame's died down
I guess I lost a little bit of self-esteem That time that you made it with the whole hockey team You used to think I was nice Now you tell all your friends that I'm the Antichrist
Oh, why did you disconnect the breaks in my car? That kind of thing is hard to ignore Got a funny feeling you don't love me anymore
I knew that we were having problems when You put those piranhas in my bathtub again You're still the light of my life Oh darling, I'm beggin', won't you put down that knife?
You know, I even think it's kinda cute the way You poison my coffee just a little each day I still remember the way that you laughed When you pushed me down that elevator shaft
Oh, if you don't mind me asking, what's this poisonous cobra Doing in my underwear drawer? Sometime I get to thinking you don't love me any more
You slammed my face down on the barbecue grill Now my scars are all healing, but my heart never will You set my house on fire You pulled out my chest hairs with an old pair of pliers
Oh, you think that I'm ugly and you say that I'm cheap You shaved off my eyebrows while I was asleep You drilled a hole in my head Then you dumped me in a drainage ditch and left me for dead
Oh, you know this really isn't like you at all You never acted this way before Honey, something tells me you don't love me any more, oh no no Got a funny feeling you don't love me anymore
(approximately 10 minutes and 2 seconds of silence)
Suite: Judy Blue Eyes Composer(s): Stephen Stills Performer(s): Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young and multiple other artists
It's getting to the point where I'm no fun any more I am sorry Sometimes it hurts so badly I must cry out loud I am lonely I am yours, you are mine, you are what you are You make it hard
Remember what we've said, and done And felt about each other Oh, babe, have mercy Don't let the past remind us of what we are not now I am not dreaming
I am yours, you are mine, you are what you are You make it hard
Tearing yourself away from me now, you are free And I am crying This does not mean I don't love you, I do, that's forever Yes, and for always
I am yours, you are mine, you are what you are You make it hard
Something inside is telling me that I've got your secret Are you still listening? Fear is the lock, and laughter the key to your heart And I love you
I am yours, you are mine, you are what you are And you make it hard And you make it hard And you make it hard
Friday evening Sunday in the afternoon What have you got to lose? Tuesday morning Please be gone, I'm tired of you What have you got to lose?
Can I tell it like it is? Help me I'm suffering Listen to me baby It's my heart that's suffering Help me, I'm crying to you It's dyin' and that's what I have to lose
I've got an answer I'm going to fly away What have I got to lose? Will you come see me Thursdays and Saturdays What have you got to lose?
Chestnut brown canary Ruby throated sparrow Sing a song, don't be long Thrill me to the marrow
Voices of the angels Ring around the moonlight Asking me, said she so free How can you catch the sparrow?
Lacy lilting lady Losing love lamenting Change my life, make it right Be my lady
Suite Madame Blue Composer(s): Dennis DeYoung Performer(s): Styx; Sylvain Cossette
Time after time I sit and I wait for your call I know I'm a fool but why can I say Whatever the price I'll pay for you, Madame Blue Once long ago, a word from your lips and the world turned around But somehow you've changed, you're so far away I long for the past and dream of the days with you, Madame Blue
Suite Madame Blue, gaze in your looking glass You're not a child anymore Suite Madame Blue, the future is all but past Dressed in your jewels, you made your own rules You conquered the world and more ..............heaven's door
Red white and blue, gaze in your looking glass You're not a child anymore Red, white, and blue, the future is all but past So lift up your heart, make a new start And lead us away from here

You Don't Know What Love Is Composer(s): Gene DePaul; Don Raye Performer(s): Dinah Washington; and various other artists
You don't know what love is until you've learned the meaning of the Blues Until you've loved a love you had to lose You don't know what love is
You don't know how lips burn until you've kissed and had to pay the cost Until you've flipped your heart and you have lost You don't know what love is
Do you know how a lost heart fears the thought of reminiscing? And lips that taste of tears lose their taste for kissing
You don't know how hearts ache for love that cannot live yet never dies Until you've faced each dawn with sleepless eyes You don't know what love is You don't know what love is

You Don't Know Me Composer(s): Cindy Walker; Eddy Arnold Performer(s): Jerry Vale; and various other artists
You give your hand to me and then you say hello And I can hardly speak, my heart is beating so And anyone could tell, you think you know me well But you don't know me
No you don't know the one who dreams of you at night And longs to kiss your lips and longs to hold you tight To you I'm just a friend, that's all I've ever been No, you don't know me
For I never knew the art of making love Though my heart aches with love for you Afraid and shy I let my chance go by The chance that you might love me too
You give your hand to me and then you say good-bye I watch you walk away beside the lucky guy To never, never know the one who loves you so No, you don't know me
Well . . . Sugar in the mornin' Sugar in the evenin' Sugar at suppertime Be my little sugar And love me all the time

You Don't Know Love Composer(s): Rebecca Foster; Donald Lewis King Performer(s): Janie Fricke; Richard Clayderman
You don't know the meaning of uncontrolled desire You were always hanging just above the fire Now and then you come close enough to just stay warm And you think that you win 'cause you never give in Because you've never been burned Ah, but you're gonna learn
That you don't know love 'til it's chilled you to the bone Turned you inside out, left you all alone You don't know love 'til you've watched it die and then You have to try again, you don't know love
Like a child you wander out into the storm You defy the thunder, but the lightning keeps you warm The innocence you show is something I'd like to know And I'm feeling that I'm finally crossing the line But I won't be alone Yes, I've known all along
No, you don't know love 'til it's chilled you to the bone Turned you inside out, left you all alone You don't know love 'til you've watched it die and then You have to try again, you don't know love
Here I go again Looking back on yesterday Oh the games we played, Oh the innocence The sun it always seemed to shine Autumn spring right through winter time Oh and my family and friends of mine, Filled me so full of confidence And oh and run like the wind Free at last my young heart would sing
I lived my dreams out on, the sugarolly mountains While looking down on mo mean city, way below So many dreams up on, the sugarolly mountains One day I'd be a rock and roll singer The next I'd be building boats
And turning back another page The school yard and the football game Oh how we laughed through the purple haze Playing on the radio Arithmatic geography, They all just seemed to sail by me I just thank God for the poetry And that ringing bell I called liberty yeah And oh I'd run like the wind Free at last my young heart would sing yeah
And when you world is closing in You've got no place to hide Just close your eyes, count to ten Climb on up and stake your claim
