Las Cuatro Y Diez Composer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez; Luis Eduardo Aute
Fue en ese cine, te acuerdas en una mañana al este de Edén James Dean tiraba piedras a una casa blanca, entonces te besé Aquélla fue la primera vez tus labios parecían de papel y a la salida en la puerta nos pidió un triste inspector nuestros carnets Luego volví a la academia para no faltar a clase de francés tú me esperaste hora y media en esta misma mesa, yo me retrasé
Quieres helado de fresa o prefieres que te pida ya el café Cuéntame como te encuentras aunque sé que me responderás: muy bien Ten, esta foto es muy fea el más pequeño acababa de nacer Oiga, me trae la cuenta calla, que fui yo quien te invitó a comer No te demores, no sea que no llegues a la hora al almacén Llámame el día que puedas date prisa que ya son las cuatro y diez
Beauty Is Only Skin Deep
Composer(s): Eddie Holland - Norman Whitfield
First release by: The Temptations - 1966
Covered by multiple other artists
So in love, sad as could be 'Cause a pretty face got the best of me Suddenly you came into my life And gave it meaning and thrill and delight Now good looks I've learned to do without 'Cause now I know it's love that really counts 'Cause I know (Beauty's only skin deep, yeah yeah yeah) I know that beauty's only skin deep (Beauty's only skin deep, oh yeah)
Now you speak your words warm and sincere It lets me know that your love is dear A pretty face you may not possess But what I like about you is your tenderness A pretty face may sometimes taste But I'll take lovin' in it's place 'Cause I know (Beauty's only skin deep, yeah yeah yeah) I know that beauty's only skin deep (Beauty's only skin deep, oh yeah)
(Oh yeah) (Oh yeah) (Beauty's only skin deep, yeah yeah yeah) (Beauty's only skin deep, oh yeah)
My friends ask what do I see in you But it goes deeper than the eye can view You have a pleasing personality And that's an ever-livin' rare quality Now, show me a girl, a girl who looks fine And I'd choose the one with true lovin' every time 'Cause I know (Beauty's only skin deep, yeah yeah yeah) And I believe you know that beauty's only skin deep (Beauty's only skin deep, oh yeah)
So if you're lookin' for a lover Don't judge a book by its cover She may be fine on the outside But so untrue on the inside...
Las Cosas Tienen Movimiento Composer(s): Fito Páez Performer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto
Muchas veces me pregunto que estamos haciendo aca dejo de pensar y ve- o que al final siempre estaras siempre estaras en mi He llegado a no escucharte tocar fondo tanta inmensidad, perdidos de verdar aqui y es que siempre estaras siempre estaras, en mi
Una voz, como un sentimiento o una cancion algo mas que me ayude a despertar a seguir, a no bajar la guardia siempre a seguir no esperes no te enseñaré a vivir
Movimiento, las cosas tienen movimiento la oportunidad de estar en libertad es que siempre estaras siempre estaras en mi Como un soplo como una lluvia como un rayo una luna oxigenaras, mi vida hasta estallar es que siempre estaras siempre estaras en mi Una voz

Open up your heart and love more open up
Open up your heart and love more open up
Open up your heart and love more open up

Composer(s): Teddy Wilburn - Johnny Russell

We were proud of this house that we found On a street in a nice part of town Had it furnished with care we were once happy here Now it's a beautiful unhappy home
Planted red sweet hard roses for you Painted our room your favorite blue Now, the colors remain but our love's not the same Oh it's a beautiful unhappy home
What a beautiful unhappy home It's so hard to believe it's our own But we're both held here by a child we love dear In this beautiful unhappy home
Yes we're both held here by a child we love dear In this beautiful unhappy home In our beautiful unhappy home
Are My Ears On Straight? Performer(s): Gayla Peevey
I'm a little doll who was dropped and broken Falling off my Mommy's knee I'm a little doll who has just been mended Now won't you tell me please
Are my ears on straight, is my nose in place Have I got a cute expression on my face Are my blue eyes bright, do I look all right To be taken home Christmas Day
When I first came here, just a month ago Brought in by a little girl who loved me so She began to cry, 'til they told her I Could be taken home Christmas Day
Christmas Eve is drawing nearer, and I'm getting scared Wish I could see in a mirror, how I've been repaired I'll be called for soon, but I'm worried so Will she love me like she did a month ago
Are My Ears On Straight, I can hardly wait To be taken home Christmas Day

Beautiful Zelda, leave me alone Just get on back to the Twilight Zone Don't try your jive on a poor Earth boy 'Cause your kind of love don't bring me no joy (oh no!)
A fourth dimensional space warp brought her to me Oh yeah The most beautiful girl I ever did see Oh yeah She gave me her hand but when I held her Oh yeah I was fooled by the beautiful Zelda
Beautiful Zelda, tell me the truth I'm just a clean livin' all-Earth youth Don't try your jive on a poor Earth boy 'Cause your kind of love don't bring me no joy
Las Cosas Que Uno Quiere Composer(s): Rubén Goldin Performer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto
Yo tengo para mis amigos la libertad de dejarlos solos cuando quieran matarse en un recuerdo Yo quiero para mis amigos la mejor tierra un mate calentito en el invierno y una triguena que les quite el sueño
Y en las tardes mansas una nueva cancion que hable de ellos de la gente que uno quiere de la gente que uno quiere de la gente que uno quiere No puedo ver esos muchachos en la derrota parados en el medio de la vida sin saber que hacer
Yo quiero que juntemos nuestras fuerzas y mueran los miedos creciendo para arriba sin veneno como crece el maiz Esto no es un juego, lo sabemos muy bien la vida no es una novela levantamos los brazos hacia el sol Y en las tardes mansas una nueva cancion que hable de ellas de las cosas que uno quiere
Beautiful World
Composer(s): Paul Carrack - T-Bone Wolk
Performer(s): Paul Carrack
Beautiful World, you taught me to remember All the feelings, I lost along the way I was afraid, alone in my confusion Running and hiding `stead of living from day to day When we were walking, we touched the summer flowers And I saw the wonder, oh in a young child`s eye Well I looked around and saw how truly grateful That I should be for all the love I`ve found
Beautiful World well you shook me to my senses And opened my eyes to the love inside of me It`s up to me, if I can always believe In the way I see it now, what a Beautiful World It would always be
Las Cosas Del Amor ((French & Italian Versions: Les Choses De L'amour (by Dalida); Credo Nell'amore (by Dalida)) Composer(s): Chris Michaelessi - Paul de Senneville - Gefingal Performer(s): Dalida
Una cita en abril, entre nubes y sol Esperando feliz, pendiente del reloj Y juntos otra vez, tratar de descubrir el cómo y el porqué, me quieres e yo a ti Mirarnos nada mas, que con el corazón Andando sin notar, que cae un chaparrón Volver a recordar, la dulce sensación Del beso sin final, de aquel primer adiós
Ayer hoy y mañana creamos entre dos Con gestos y palabras Las cosas del amor
El sabor del café, que hay que recalentar Tu sabes bien porqué, en cada despertar El tren donde te vas, por la primera vez Que nos horas llenar, de besos el andén Darte celos por ver, tu desesperación Abrazarnos después, riéndonos los dos Reñir sin mas ni mas, sabiendo que otra vez Podremos disfrutar, la dicha de volver
Ayer hoy y mañana creamos entre dos Con gestos y palabras Las cosa del amor
Una cita en Octubre, con el ultimo sol Del verano que ya, el otoño enfrió Amarnos otra vez, sintiéndonos tú y yo Distintos desde ayer, iguales desde hoy Ver sin ningún temor, el tiempo que se va Muy juntos al calor, de la felicidad El niño que a los dos, se nos parecerá Nos guía con su vez, hacia la eternidad
Ayer hoy y mañana creamos entre dos Con gestos y palabras Las cosas del amor
Beautiful Things
Composer(s): Leslie Bricusse
First performance by: Anthony Newley - 1967
I can't explain what it is that he is
But he is what he is for a very good reason
I can't explain why he does what he does
But he does what he does cause his heart is pure
If that much, I'm sure
Im sure from the way he spoke the other day
He lives in a world of fantasy
And that is a world I plan to see
Fantasy, can't you see?
The world is full of beautiful things
Butterfly wings, fairy tale kings
And each new day undoubtedly brings
Still more beautiful things
The world abounds with many delights
Magical sights, fanciful flights
And those who dream on beautiful nights
Dream of beautiful things
Beautiful days for sunshine lazin'
Beautiful skies and shores
Beautiful days when I can gaze
In beautiful eyes - like yours
Our lives tick by like pendulum swings
Poor little things, puppets on strings
Life is full of beautiful things
Beautiful people too
Beautiful people
Like you
Les Choses De L'amour ((Italian & Spanish Versions: Credo Nell'amore (by Dalida); Las Cosas Del Amor (by Dalida)) Composer(s): Chris Michaelessi - Paul de Senneville Performer(s): Dalida
Un rendez-vous d'avril au bord de la tamise Et deux curs qui s'allument soudain au coin du jour Partir le soir ensemble pour découvrir Venise Et retrouver Paris en découvrant l'amour Dîner sans ce presser le cur au fond des yeux Et marcher sous la pluie ne sachant pas qu'il pleut Revoir un film d'amour qui nous ressemble un peu Et ce serre la main quand ils se disent adieux
Voilà, les mots les gestes qui font nos nuits nos jours Les souvenirs qui reste des choses de l'amour
Le café du matin posé au coin du lit Et qu'il faut réchauffer parce qu'il c'est refroidit Le train ou tu t'en va pour la première fois Le quai ou tu reviens et je ne vois que toi Te rendre un peu jaloux et rire de tes colères Qui me rassure surtout quand il fait froid l'hiver Claquer la porte soudain pour ce défaire de nous Ce quitter pour un rien ce retrouver pour tous
Voilà, les mots les gestes qui font nos nuits nos jours Les souvenirs qui reste des choses de l'amour
Un rendez-vous d'octobre au bord de la tamise Et deux curs se retrouvent dans la nuit qui frissonne Refaire l'amour ensemble en revoyant Venise Et n'avoir peur de rien pas même de l'automne Voir les années qui passe avec la certitude Que quoi que le temps fasse avec ses habitudes L'enfant qui te ressemble et qu'on aura demain Pourra nous continuer jusqu'au dernier matin
Voilà, les mots les gestes qui font nos nuits nos jours Les souvenirs qui reste des choses de l'amour
Beautiful Thing
Composer(s): Henry Kapono
Performer(s): Henry Kapono
I feel so lonely
I feel so empty inside
Just tell me one thing
Is this what love is like?
All I wanted was a beautiful thing
All I wanted was the love we had
All I wanted was you in my life
All I wanted was you in my life
She stole my thunder
She took my breath away
Now I sit and I wonder
Will I ever see her again?
All I wanted was a beautiful thing
All I wanted was the love we had
All I wanted was you in my life
All I wanted was you in my life
Las Cartas De Laura Composer(s): Miguel Mateos Performer(s): Zas
Son tan breves las cartas de Laura desde París escribe, Laura Se fue con la intención de crecer sin mutilación Nada que recordar nadie para ver y aunque se porte mal no hay por qué temer
Conozco tus estados, Laura ya no firmas las cartas, Laura Si perdiste el control y las cosas se ponen peor tiempo para pedir y tiempo para dar tiempo para servir y más para luchar
Y yo soy el que te espera como a nadie esperé Laura de cualquier manera primero apaga tu sed
Ya que lo soñaste todo, Laura alguna vez me lo vas a contar si queda algo en tu interior que por vergüenza o por pudor No me queres decir es mejor guardar pensá que también aquí hay tanto o más que ocultar
Y yo soy el que te espera como a nadie esperé Laura de cualquier manera primero apaga tu sed
Y yo soy el que te espera como a nadie esperé Laura de cualquier manera primero apaga tu sed
