7 paarden op de vlucht 7 paarden onbeducht 7 paarden wild en vrij zie ze daar lopen zie ze daar lopen rennen zie ze daar lopen zie ze daar lopen rennen

Che cose? Ce nell'aria qualcosa di freddo che inverno non e Che cose? Questa sera i bambini per strada non giocano piu
Non so perche l'allegria degli amici di sempre non mi diverte piu uno mi ha detto che ...
Lontano dagli occhi, lontano dal cuore e tu sei lontana, lontana da me Per uno che torna e ti porta una rosa mille si sono scordati di te Lontano dagli occhi, lontano dal cuore e tu sei lontana, lontana da me
Ora so che cose questo amaro sapore che resta di te quando tu sei lontana e non so dove sei cosa fai dove vai E so perche non so piu immaginare il sorriso che c'e negli occhi tuoi quando non sei con me
Lontano dagli occhi, lontano dal cuore e tu sei lontana, lontana da me Per uno che torna e ti porta una rosa mille si sono scordati di te Lontano dagli occhi, lontano dal cuore e tu sei, sei lontana, lontana da me ...
Sei lontano dagli occhi, lontano dal cuore e tu sei, sei lontana, lontana da me ...

Look at me I can see there's no love in your eyes Though you try to pretend Look at me Aw, there's no need to explain how you're feeling I guess it's the end
And when you go I will try not to cry as you kiss me goodbye You'll never know How much I'll miss you so
If ever you're lonely If ever you're blue If ever you need me I'm waiting for you And though your love has gone You're still the only one So if ever you're lonely I'll run straight to you
Now as you walk away Remember what I say If ever you're lonely I'm lonely like you
In my heart For some time I have known deep inside You have somebody new But my heart Will still want you forever Although it is broken in two You're not to blame No, go be happy with her And if one night you whisper my name Come to my arms again
If ever you're lonely If ever you're blue If ever you need me I'm waiting for you
And though your love has gone You're still the only one So if you're lonely I'll run straight to you, yeah
Now as you walk away Remember what I say If ever you're lonely I'm lonely like you
If ever you're lonely darling Da da de da ah oh Da da de da ah oh If ever you're lonely I'll run straight to you
Every Monday mornin', people just a worryful day Every Monday mornin', people just a worryful day I think about my daddy, who's many miles away
Every Tuesday mornin', whiskey is all I crave Every Tuesday mornin', whiskey is all I crave The blues and booze are goin' to carry me to my grave
Wednesdays and Thursdays I try to wear the blues away Wednesdays and Thursdays I try to wear the blues away But when you get 'em about your daddy, they really come to stay
Every Friday people, is always my bad luck day Every Friday people, is always my bad luck day That's the day my man packed up and went away
I woke up Saturday mornin', tryin' to find my man I woke up Saturday mornin', tryin' to find my man I ain't got nobody to lend me a helpin' hand
Distante Dos Olhos ((Adapted from: Lontano Dagli Occhi (Sergio Endrigo) - 1969)) Composer(s): Sergio Endrigo - Sergio Bardotti - Nazareno de Brito Performer(s): Moacyr Franco - 1969
Versions In Other Languages: 1969 - If Ever You're Lonely (Petula Clark) 1969 - Parce Que Tu Me Quittes (Liliane Saint Pierre)
Porque é? que esta lágrima corre tão fria e o inverno já foi Porque é? que esta noite os meninos da rua não vejo brincar Não sei porquê a alegria dos amigos de sempre não me diverte mais, e um me disse assim
Distante dos olhos, aos poucos esqueçes o amor que não morre no teu coração Mas há quem eu mande levar-te uma rosa pergunta se estou me esquecendo de ti
Tão longe dos olhos, tão perto de mim não há um caminho que não leve a ti
E já sei porque sempre esse amargo soluço eu tento esconder quando penso que talvez alguém passe, te abraçe ... te fale de amor Também porque não consigo lembrar o sorriso que existe em teu olhar quando não estás aqui
Distante dos olhos, aos poucos esqueçes o amor que não morre no teu coração Mas há quem eu mande levar-te uma rosa pergunta se estou me esquecendo de ti
Tão longe dos olhos, tão perto de mim não há um caminho que não leve a ti
Mas há quem eu mande levar-te uma rosa pergunta se estou me esquecendo de ti
Tão longe dos olhos, tão perto de mim por todo caminho eu vou te encontrar
Seven Beers With The Wrong Kind Of Man Performer(s): Bonnie Blue Eyes
Last night I strolled down to the tavern To get me a glass of beer And when I sat down at the table A man came up and said "Dear Come over and sit at my table And I'll buy you beer by the can" I made my mistake - last night when I drank Seven beers with the wrong kind of man
This man was tall, dark and handsome You could hang out your clothes on his line He said he'd searched this world over But he'd never seen beauty like mine I fell for it hook, line and sinker And then all the troubles began From now on I think - I never will drink Seven beers with the wrong kind of man
He asked me if I had a husband I told him my name was still Miss Was then that he leaned 'cross the table He squeezed me and gave me a kiss I couldn't resist his advances The room seemed to spin 'round and then He said "There's my wife - better run for your life Or you'll not see daylight again"
Now I'm in the house of correction His wife said I'd stolen her man It's all on account of my drinkin' Seven beers with the wrong kind of man That big handsome brute said I "vamped" him That I was the worst in the land Now girls stop and think - before you go drink Seven beers with the wrong kind of man
Longing For You Composer(s): Walter Dana - Bernard Jansen Performer(s): Billy Cotton & His Band and multiple other artists

Longing, longing, longing for you Longing, longing, lonely and blue Daytime, night time, what can I do I just keep on longing for you
We spent every cent of my money And then you were gone out of sight Though I should forget you My Honey Im longing to kiss you tonight
Longing, longing, longing for you Longing, longing, lonely and blue Daytime, night time, what can I do I just keep on longing for you I just keep on longing for you
