I remember the sun beating down Across my back The taste of olives and pleasures that You taught me And we broke bread and then we drank Cheap white wine Memories of happiness frozen for all time
I hear you crying in my heart Absent friends shall live by love Remember places of my past Absent friends shall live by love And the dead shall live again Absent friends shall live by Love...love...love...love
And i remember laughing so much we cried You knew my every thought, there was Nothing i could hide We celebrated moons we marvelled at The night sky With flute and drum and pen we were Grateful for our lives
I hear you crying in my heart Absent friends shall live by love Remember places of my past Absent friends shall live by love And the dead shall live again Absent friends shall live by Love...love...love...love
I hear you crying in my heart Absent friends shall live by love Remember places of my past Absent friends shall live by love And the dead shall live again Absent friends shall live by Love...love...love...love
We Saw The Sea Composer(s): Irving Berlin Performer(s): Fred Astaire; and various other artists
We joined the Navy to see the world And what did we see? We saw the sea We saw the Pacific and the Atlantic But the Atlantic isn't romantic And the Pacific isn't what it's cracked up to be
We joined the Navy to do or die But we didn't do and we didn't die We were much too busy looking at the ocean and the sky And what did we see? We saw the sea We saw the Atlantic and the Pacific But the Pacific isn't terrific And the Atlantic isn't what it's cracked up to be
They tell us that the Admiral Is as nice as he can be But we never see the Admiral Because the Admiral has never been to sea
We joined the Navy to see the girls And what did we see? We saw the sea Instead of a girl or two in a taxi We were compelled to look at the Black Sea Seeing the Black Sea isn't what it's cracked up to be
Sailing, sailing home again To see the girls upon the village green Then across the foam again To see the other seas we haven't seen
We owe the Navy an awful lot For they taught us how to do the Sailor's Hornpipe And they showed us how to tie a sailor's knot But more than that, they showed us the sea We never get seasick sailing the ocean We don't object to feeling the motion We're never seasick but we are awful sick of sea
Absence Makes The Heart Grow Fonder Composer(s): Samuel M. Lewis - Harry Warren - Joseph Young Performer(s): Dean Martin; The Ames Brothers; Russ Morgan
If you should leave me I know it would grieve me So honey please remember Absence makes the heart grow fonder For somebody else
I love you dearly I'm yours sincerely But honey please remember Absence makes the heart grow fonder For somebody else
When the cat's away the mice will play I don't say I will but still I may I may be blue away from you And then again I may be gay
When I get fretful I get forgetful So honey please remember Absence makes the heart grow fonder For somebody else
When the cat's away the mice will play I don't say I will but still I may I may be blue away from you And then again I may be gay
When I get fretful I get forgetful So honey please remember Absence makes the heart grow fonder For somebody else For somebody else
We Said Hello, Goodbye (Don't Look Back) Composer(s): Phil Collins Performer(s): Phil Collins
We said goodbye to a dear old friend And we packed our bags and left feeling sad It's the only way We said hello as we turned the key A new roof over our heads Gave a smile It's the only way Only way Turn your head And don't look back Set your sails for a new horizon Don't turn around don't look down Oh there's life across the tracks And you know it's really not surprising It gets better when you get there oh Well it really don't matter much where you are Cause home is in your heart It's a feeling that you wake with one day Some people key p running all their life And still find they haven't gone too far They don't see it's the feeling inside - the feeling inside oh Turn your head and don't look back Just set your sails for a new horizon Don't turn around don't look down Oh there's life across the tracks And you know it's really not surprising It gets better when you get there We said hello as we turned the key A new roof over our heads Gave a smile - it's the only way
We pretend that the end hasn't found us And we cling to the things left behind us Line by line, every rhyme has been written And time left us here unaware
In our eyes gentle sighs went unspoken Yes, the days will remain unforgotten Love went by and we tried once too often To save all the dreams that we share
And here we stand, the silent strangers Afraid to ask which way to go Our empty hands at last surrender The reason why we'll never know
We pretend that the end of our rainbow Cannot die if it lies like a shadow Willows bend when the wind blows to conquer The leaves that have withered away
We can't run to the sun like we used to Nothing lasts from the past that we once knew You and I can deny that it's over And yet we must face it somehow
Yet here we stand, the silent strangers Afraid to ask which way to go Our empty hands at last surrender The reason why we'll never know
We pretend that the end hasn't found us And we cling to the things left behind us Line by line, every rhyme has been written And time left us here unaware
In our eyes gentle sighs went unspoken Yes, the days will remain unforgotten Love went by and we tried once too often To save all the dreams that we share
Seinem Geiste bekenne Ich Mich Ein Sehnen verzehret sein schönes Gesicht Das ermattet von Güte beschattet allmächtig ist
Sein Körper bewegt sich nicht Im Träume sich endlich sein Zwingen vergißt
Den heulenden Jubel erkenne Ich nicht Der Mir den heiligen Frieden zerbricht Sein schweigender Mund, seine schlafende Brust Harren zärtlich der süßen Lust
Sein Körper bewegt sich nicht Im Träume sich endlich sein Zwingen vergißt

Abre Tu Ventana Composer(s): Victor Jara Performer(s): Victor Jara
Maria, abre la ventana y deja que el sol alumbre por todos los rincones de tu casa Maria, mira hacia afuera nuestra vida no ha sido hecha para rodearla de sombras y tristezas
Maria ya ves no basta nacer, crecer, amar para encontrar la felicidad Paso lo mas cruel ahora tus ojos se llenan de luz y tus manos de miel tus manos de miel tus manos de miel Maria...
Tu risa brota como la mañana brota en el jardin Maria Tu risa brota como la mañana brota en el jardin Maria
(We Must Have Been) Out Of Our Minds Composer(s): Melba Montgomery Performer(s): Bobby Bare; and various other artists
We said our goodbyes long ago Never thinking we'd miss each other so All the memories we can't leave behind Oh, we must have been out of our minds
I thought I loved another, not you How foolish I thought the same, too They both turned out to be the wrong kind Oh, we must have been out of our minds
Let's forgive and forget the past we've known And reap together the wild seeds we've sown Surely they can forgive us and find That we must have been out of our minds
I thought I loved another, not you How foolish I thought the same, too They both turned out to be the wrong kind Oh, we must have been out of our minds Yes, we must have been out of our minds
abre el mundo ante tus pies abre todo sin querer abre el zen, la vanidad abre la profundidad
abren sexos en tu piel abren cofres si querés abre el fuego si cantás abre el mundo una vez más
abre el roce y el amor se abren paso entre tú y yo abre el miedo y el dolor abrís todo y entro yo
abre un cuerpo, se abre el sol abre dar también perdón abre verse en realidad abre gritar de verdad
abre el rito de la fe abre el riesgo de perder se abre solo mi ataúd abre el plexo en una cruz abre drogas, abre amar abre besos, abre andar abre hablar, abre callar abre el pulso del lugar
abre hacer e imaginar abre nunca interpretar abre toda sensación abre música y color
abre el fin de la razón abre el cielo y el terror abre un poco de piedad abre toda inmensidad
se abre el mundo ante tus pies abre todo sin querer abre al fin la vanidad abre la profundidad
abren sexos en tu piel abre un cofre si querés abre el fuego si cantás abre el mundo una vez más

When Britain is in danger, when trouble's in the air We all forget our squabbles it's trespassers beware The nation is united when danger looms in sight We march along together and sing with all our might
We must all stick together, all stick together And the clouds will soon roll by We must all stick together, all stick together Never mind the old school tie United we shall stand whatever may befall The richest in the land, the poorest of us all We must all stick together, birds of a feather And the clouds will soon roll by

We Missed You Composer(s): Bill Anderson Performer(s): Kitty Wells; Doyle Lawson
We missed you and we're glad you've come home The hours were never so lonely, my eyes were never so strained From watching and waiting and crying for you And hoping you'd come back again
Me and my heart and my lips and my arms We missed you each day you were gone Me and my heart and my lips and my arms We missed you and we're glad you've come home
I hope against hope you still love me There were so many mem'ries I carried And though you had gone many miles from my side My love followed you every step
Me and my heart and my lips and my arms We missed you each day you were gone Me and my heart and my lips and my arms We missed you and we're glad you've come home
We May Never Pass This Way (Again) Composer(s): James Seals; Dash Crofts Performer(s): Seals & Crofts; Jeri Brown; George Porter Jr.
Life, so they say, is but a game and we let it slip away Love, like the Autumn sun, should be dyin' but it's only just begun Like the twilight in the road up ahead, they don't see just where we're goin' And all the secrets in the Universe, whisper in our ears And all the years will come and go, take us up, always up We may never pass this way again We may never pass this way again We may never pass this way again
Dreams, so they say, are for the fools and they let 'em drift away Peace, like the silent dove, should be flyin' but it's only just begun Like Columbus in the olden days, we must gather all our courage Sail our ships out on the open sea Cast away our fears And all the years will come and go, and take us up, always up We may never pass this way again We may never pass this way again We may never pass this way again
So, I wanna laugh while the laughin' is easy I wanna cry if it makes it worthwhile We may never pass this way again, that's why I want it with you 'Cause, you make me feel like I'm more than a friend Like I'm the journey and you're the journey's end We may never pass this way again, that's why I want it with you, baby
We may never pass this way again We may never pass this way again We may never pass this way again We may never pass this way again

Has anybody here seen my old friend Bobby? Can you tell me where he's gone? I thought I saw him walkin' Up over the hill With Abraham, Martin and John
We May Never Love Like This Again Composer(s): Al Kasha; Joel Hirschhorn Performer(s): Maureen McGovern; and various other artists
We may never love like this again Don't stop the flow We can't let go We may never love like this again And touch the sky Though we may try
So, while we're here Let's give out all Release the dreams inside us And set them free Oh, while we're here Let's leave a mark There's a candle in the dark It's here to guide us
We may never love like this again But through the days Beyond the hills I'll see you reaching out to hold me I don't know just where or when Still, I'm sure We'll love again We'll love again
We'll love again (We may never love like this again) We'll love again (We may never love like this again) We'll love......
Un pueblo suburbano un hombre a contramano tributo al desempleado
Julio y María, sus 2 hijos y su esposa Analia trabaja de día y a la noche quiere estudiar
Abracadabra 2000
Él y algunos compañeros fueron despedidos en el mes de enero el asunto es desregular
Después de 20 años ensamblando autos 46 cumplidos, difícil volver a empezar (no papi, no!, no mami, no!) (solo propagandas)
Harto y frustrado (habrá que resistir) se consiguió un aliado (el miedo) botella en mano partió (el vicio vence a la virtud) leyó el grafitti (en la pared del club y con actitud) firmó su manifiesto abandonando el lugar...
Abracadabra 2000
"Todo esta armado para domesticar desde el trabajo hasta la puta moral, comprando y vendiendo hombres, mujeres e ideas y lo que no pueden comprar lo hacen desaparecer...
Un pueblo suburbano un hombre a contramano
Hoy que encontramos asesinos en las páginas amarillas (habrá que competir) hoy que cualquier imbécil es profeta arriba de una silla (habrá que tener fe) Hoy que el Prozac nos divide en Jekylls y Hydes (habrá que simular) hoy que el mundo esta quemando aceite y la marcha atrás parece no entrar *(habrá que andar a pie) hoy que el ministro dio instrucciones para que todo siga como antes *(habrá que resistir)
We Made It Composer(s): David Paich; Jeff Porcaro Performer(s): Toto
Bad time for love - you caught me on your birthday I could feel your heart break into a hundred pieces We were too torn apart, now it seems so senseless And if we're clever, we'll put it together, it may be forever
Chorus: We made it, made it, made it before, I know that we can make it again We made it, made it, made it before, I know that we can make it again
Down on my luck, you arrived just in time, my angel Thought you'd given me up, like a rhyme that needs no reason I want you enough to keep my life untangled If we're clever, we'll put it together, 'cos it may be forever
Chorus
I want you enough to keep my life untangled If we're clever, we'll put it together, 'cos it may be forever
Chorus repeats 2x
If ever we'll make it, we're gonna make it girl And I know we can take it, we got to take it, girl
If ever we can make it, we gotta make it And I know we can take it
