I Owe You One
I Owe You One
Composer(s): Phil Galdston; Jon Lind; Wendy Waldman
Performer(s): Aaron Neville
There's a chill in the evening air
Carries me back to some place where
I thought I'd lost my way forever
Every dream and every plan
Every last chance slipped through my hand
And you smiled at me and it was over
Holding you tonight
Hold on tight
I try to say it right
And I guess sometimes the words don't come
And I wish I told you how you changed my life
And saved me with your love
I hope when all is said and done
You know I owe you one
Walk me down those streets again
Stop me right at the moment when
You stood there talking to a stranger
Tell me how you looked at me
And knew the very best that I could be
How did you see this happy ending
Standing by your side
I'm still surprised
I try to say it right
But I guess sometimes the words don't come
And I wish I'd told you how you changed my life
And saved me with your love
I hope when all is said and done
You know I owe you one
One for life and one for love
And all you've given me
For the dreams you made me dream again
And all that we can be
Holding you tonight, holding you tonight
Hold on tight
I try to say it right
I guess sometimes the words don't come
And I wish I'd told you how you changed my life
And saved me with your love
I hope when all is said and done
You know I owe you one

East West
East West
Composer(s): Graham Gouldman
Performer(s): Herman's Hermits
East West
Over the ocean
Perpetual motion
Travelling around
No rest
Singing and playing
Night out and day in
Doing the rounds
What a great life it must seem
Swell joints
Everything classy
Nothing looks passy
Only the best
Lush girls
All of them dying
Crying and sighing
This is success
What a great life this must seem
But when I hear young voices singing out
The bells at home come ringing out
And I feel all alone
And I think of my home
Mum dad
All at the fire
In festive attire
Keeping the day
Aunts kids
All the relation
Congratulation
This is success
What a great life it must seem
But when I hear young voices singing out
The bells of home come ringing out
And I feel all alone
And I long for my home

I Overlooked An Orchid (While Searching For A Rose)
I Overlooked An Orchid (While Searching For A Rose)
Composer(s): Carl Story; Shirly Lynn; Carl Smith
Performer(s): Carl Smith
and multiple other artists
The orchid is a flower
That blooms so tenderly
To thrill the fairest lady of the land
If placed beside a blushin' rose
The rose could not compare
But how was such as I to understand
I overlooked an orchid
While searching for a rose
The orchid that I overlooked was you
The rose that I was searching for
Has proved to be untrue
The orchid now I find, my dear, was you
The rose has lost it's colour
But the orchid is the same
And I'm alone to face these lonely years
I didn't see the orchid
I was looking for a rose
And now I pay the price with bitter tears
I overlooked an orchid
While searching for a rose
The orchid that I overlooked was you
The rose that I was searching for
Has proved to be untrue
The orchid now I find, my dear, was you

East Of The Sun (And West Of The Moon)
Composer(s): Brooks Bowman
First performance by: The Princeton University Triangle Club - 1935
Covered by multiple other artists
I wish that we could live up in the sky
Where we would find a place away up high
We'd live among the stars, the sun, the moon
Just you and I
East of the sun and west of the moon
We'll build a dream house of love, dear
Near to the sun in the day
Near to the moon at night
We'll live in a lovely way, dear
Living on love and pale moonlight
Just you and I
Forever and a day
Love will not die
We'll keep it that way
Up among the stars we'll find
A harmony of life to a lovely tune
East of the sun and west of the moon, dear
East of the sun and west of the moon

Triangolo
Composer(s): Renato Zero
Performer(s): Renato Zero
L'indirizzo ce l' ho...
rintracciarti non è un problema
ti telefonerò, ti offrirò una serata strana
il pretesto lo sai, quattro dischi e un po' di whisky
sarò grande vedrai, fammi spazio e dopo mi dirai
che maschio sei!
Lui chi è? Come mai l' hai portato con te?
Il suo ruolo mi spieghi qual'è?
Io volevo incontrarti da sola... semmai!!!
Mentre lui, lui chi è? Lui chi è? Lui chi è?
Lui chi è?...
già è difficile farlo con te... mollalo!
Lui chi è? Lui chi è? Lui chi è? Lui chi è?
E' distratto ma è certo di troppo, mollalo!!!
Mi aspettavo lo sai, un rapporto un po' più normale
quale eventualità, trovagli una collocazione
ora spiegami dai, l'atteggiamento che dovrò adottare...
mentre io rischierei di trovarmi al buio
fra le braccia lui... non è il mio tipo...

I Oughta Let Go
I Oughta Let Go
Composer(s): Steve Diamond; T. Seals; E. Setser
Performer(s): 38 Special
I oughta be shot for thinkin' that you could love me
I oughta be hung for keepin' up my hopes
I got to be crazy for thinkin' that it could work out
I oughta know better, I oughta let go
It's only Monday, and my heart's already broken
I had a feeling it was gonna be different this time
But you were just talkin', going through the motions
And all the teachings were backin' up your lines
I oughta be shot for thinkin' that you could love me
I oughta be hung for keepin' up my hopes
I got to be crazy for thinkin' that it could work out
I oughta know better, I oughta let go
Day after day brings night after night without sleeping
You keep me waitin' and you know what I'm waitin' for
Some kind of affection that I can believe in
You give me just a little, I want a little bit more
I oughta be shot for thinkin' that you could love me
I oughta be hung for keepin' up my hopes
I got to be crazy for thinkin' that it could work out
I oughta know better, I oughta let go
Day after day brings night after night without sleeping
You keep me waitin' and you know what I'm waitin' for
Some kind of affection that I can believe in
You give me just a little, I want a little bit more
I oughta be shot for thinkin' that you could love me
I oughta be hung for keepin' up my hopes
I got to be crazy for thinkin' that it could work out
I oughta know better, I oughta let go
I oughta be shot for thinkin' that you could love me
I oughta be hung for keepin' up my hopes
I got to be crazy for thinkin' that it could work out
I oughta know better, I oughta let go
I oughta know better, I just oughta let go
Man I've got to be crazy, some kind of fever ...

East Of Eden
East Of Eden
Composer(s): Michael McDonald
Performer(s): Michael McDonald
The world goes mad around us
As I stand by and watch you sleep
In the hope that harm won't find us
I pray the lord our souls to keep
Does he see us here?
Are we precious in his sight?
Or are we merely dust on this tiny ball?
He hurled out into the night
Somewhere east of Eden
From the first time that we stumble
We learn that nothing is assurred
However hopelessly we tumble
It's by the grace of God that we endure
If there's some better place
Far from all that's wrong
But if God in his wisdom
Saw fit to put you here
Then here is where I belong
Somewhere east of Eden
Maybe he laughs in our face
By way of the cold hard fact
That these moments framed in time and space
Are the same ones nothing can bring back
Maybe we exist and wonder through this world
Just to lead each other home
From somewhere east of Eden

Triad
Triad
Composer(s): David Crosby
First recording/First release: The Byrds - 1967/Jefferson Airplane - 1968
Covered by multiple other artists
You want to know how it will be
Me and him and you and me
You both stand there your long hair flowing
Your eyes alive your mind still growing
Saying to me -- "What can we do now that we both love you"
I love you too -- I don't really see
Why can't we go on as three
You are afraid -- embarrassed too
No one has ever said such a thing to you
Your mother's ghost stands at your shoulder
Face like ice -- a little bit colder
Saying to you -- "you can not do that, it breaks
All the rules you learned in school"
I don't really see
Why can't we go on as three
We love each other -- it's plain to see
There's just one answer comes to me
-- Sister -- lovers -- water brothers
And in time -- maybe others
So you see -- what we can do -- is to try something new --
If you're crazy too --
I don't really see
Why can't we go on as three

Up The Junction
Up The Junction
Composer(s): Glenn Tilbrook; Chris Difford
First release by: Squeeze - 1979
Covered by multiple other artists
I never thought it would happen
With me and the girl from Clapham
Out on a windy common
That night I ain't forgotten
When she dealt out the rations
With some or other passions
I said "You are a lady"
"Perhaps" she said "I may be"
We moved into a basement
With thoughts of our engagement
We stayed in by the telly
Although the room was smelly
We spent our time just kissing
The Railway Arms we're missing
But love had got us hooked up
And all our time it took up
I got a job with Stanley
He said I'd come in handy
And started me on Monday
So I had a bath on Sunday
I worked eleven hours
And bought the girl some flowers
She said she'd seen a doctor
And nothing now could stop her
I worked all through the winter
The weather brass and bitter
I put away a tenner
Each week to make her better
And when the time was ready
We had to sell the telly
Late evenings by the fire
With little kicks inside her
This morning at 4:50
I took her rather nifty
Down to an incubator
Where thirty minutes later
She gave birth to a daughter
Within a year a walker
She looked just like her mother
If there could be another
And now she's two years older
Her mother's with a soldier
She left me when my drinking
Became a proper stinging
The devil came and took me
From bar to street to bookie
No more nights by the telly
No more nights nappies smelling
Alone here in the kitchen
I feel there's something missing
I'd beg for some forgiveness
But begging's not my business
And she won't write a letter
Although I always tell her
And so it's my assumption
I'm really up the Junction

East Bound And Down
East Bound And Down
Composer(s): Dick Feller - Jerry Reed
First release by: Jerry Reed - 1977
Covered by multiple other artists
East bound and down, loaded up and truckin'
We're gonna do what they say can't be done
We've got a long way to go and a short time to get there
I'm east bound, just watch ol' Bandit run
Keep your foot hard on the pedal, Son, never mind them brakes
Let it all hang out 'cause we got a run to make
The boys are thirsty in Atlanta and there's beer in Texarcana
And we'll bring it back no matter what it takes
East bound and down, loaded up and truckin'
We're gonna do what they say can't be done
We've got a long way to go and a short time to get there
I'm east bound, just watch ol' Bandit run
Ol' Smokey's got them ears on and he's hot on your trail
He ain't gonna rest 'til you're in jail
So you got to dodge 'im and you got to duck 'im
You got to keep that diesel truckin'
Just put that hammer down and give it hell
East bound and down, loaded up and truckin'
We're gonna do what they say can't be done
We've got a long way to go and a short time to get there
I'm east bound, just watch ol' Bandit run

Tres Palabras
Composer(s): Oswaldo Farrés
Performer(s): Javier Solís
Oye la confesión de mi secreto
nace de un corazón que está desierto
Con tres palabras te diré todas mis cosas
cosas del corazón que son preciosas
Dame tus manos ven, toma las mías
que te voy a confiar las ansias mías
Son tres palabras solamente mis angustias
y esas palabras son cómo me gustas
Son tres palabras solamente mis angustias
y esas palabras son cómo me gustas

I Only Want To Love You
I Only Want To Love You
Composer(s): Mike Pinder
Performer(s): Mike Pinder
Looking back, sometimes I wondered
Who held the key to your heart
Now I know, through places I travelled
Our love's unraveled a chart...
In my life I've waited...
For a chance to really make it...
Something written into my stars.
Past lives that I've lived
Only lead up to a Gift
Of speaking out my thoughts in my songs
I only want to love you
I only want to care
I'd like a friend to talk to
My feelings are to share...my life with someone
I hope it's you and that you'll care
Our imagination is a secret of creation
Given to us right at the start
And our Destination is reaching for salvation
From the city streets we've outgrown
I only want to love you
I only want to care
I'd like a friend to talk to
My feelings are to share my life...with someone
I hope it's you and that you'll care
I only want to love you...
So will you play this song again...

Easier Said Than Done
Easier Said Than Done
((French Version: Pas Si Simple Que Ça (Les Surfs) - 1963))
Composer(s): Larry Huff - William Linton
First release by: The Essex - 1963
Covered by multiple other artists
My friends all tell me
Go to him, run to him
Say sweet lovely things to him
And tell him - he's the one
Deep in my heart I know it
But it's so hard to show it
'Cause it's easier - easier said than done
My buddies tell me
Fly to him, sigh to him
Tell him I would die for him
And tell him - he's the one
Although he gives me a feeling
That sets my heart a-reeling
Yet it's easier - easier said than done
Well, I know that I love him so
I'm afraid that he'll never know
Because I (I-I) I get so timid and shy
Each time that I look him in the eye
They all tell me
Sing to him, swing with him
And just do anything for him
And tell him - he's the one
I got a love so true
But I'm sad and blue
'Cause it's easier - easier said than done
Well, I know that I love him so
I'm afraid that he'll never know
Because I (I-I) I get so timid and shy
Each time that I look him in the eye
They all tell me
Sing to him, swing with him
And just do anything for him
And tell him - he's the one
I got a love so true
But I'm sad and blue
'Cause it's easier - easier said than done
Easier-er-er-er - said than done

Tres Lunas
Tres Lunas
Composer(s): Luis Demetrio
Performer(s): Lucha Villa; Los Tres Ases
Hace tres lunas que no duermo
desde el día que te fuiste estoy enfermo
No te importó ni el llanto de las cunas
que imploraban tu amor junto conmigo
Hace tres lunas que maldigo
la terrible crueldad de tu abandono
Le has quitado a mis hijos el abrigo
que le has ido a ofrecer a otro querer
Hace apenas tres lunas que te fuiste
y me han dicho que estás arrepentida
Que no puedes borrar de tu memoria
el hogar que dejaste solo y triste
Pero si un día volver quisieras
y pidieras perdón por lo que has hecho
solamente por Dios te lo daría
y después, por mi honor te mataría
Hace apenas tres lunas que te fuiste
y me han dicho que estás arrepentida
Que no puedes borrar de tu memoria
el hogar que dejaste solo y triste
Pero si un día volver quisieras
y pidieras perdón por lo que has hecho
solamente por Dios te lo daría
y después, por mi honor te mataría

I don't know what it is that makes me love you so
I only know I never want to let you go
'Cause you started something, can't you see
Ever since we met you've had a hold on me
It happens to be true, I only want to be with you
It doesn't matter where you go or what you do
I want to spend each moment of the day with you
Look what has happened with just one kiss
I never knew that I could be in love like this
It's crazy but it's true I only want to be with you
You stopped and smiled at me
asked me if I'd care to dance
I fell into your open arms
I didn't stand a chance
Now, listen, honey, I just want to be beside you everywhere
As long as we're together, honey, I don't care
'Cause you started something, can't you see
Ever since we met you've had a hold on me
No matter what you do, I only want to be with you
You stopped and smiled at me
asked me if I'd care to dance
I fell into your open arms
I didn't stand a chance
Now, listen, honey, I just want to be beside you everywhere
As long as we're together, honey, I don't care
'Cause you started something, can't you see
Ever since we met you've had a hold on me
No matter what you do, I only want to be with you
No matter, no matter what you do, I only want to be with you
No matter, no matter what you do, I only want to be with you

and multiple other artists
If I could ease your pain
If I could lighten your load
If I could make it just a little better for you
If I could just help you find
That sacred place in your mind
Where the light of understanding love
Outshines the sun
You know, sweet moonshine is not just
Illegal whiskey
It can also be the light guides you
Through the shadows of fear
When the Devil is near
An' you need some kind of helping hand
To carry you through
Know you been livin' in a down hill arraign
For seein' your death on a military plane
You said: "Oh, now
"Can't take no more now"
No doubt about it when you find out about it
You gonna wanna run an' tell all your friends about it
Easy, it's so easy
Peace on earth is comin' on strong
You bad guys better believe us
We're all workin' on the same sweet song
You better get ready, by Jesus
He'll never leave us
Standin' in the middle of a road
With a load of mankind's dirty laundry
We're all livin' in the same big boat
An' you know we just can't fake it
If you don't think that you can float
C'mon, we'll help you make it
Because we love you
If I could ease your pain
If I could lighten your load
If I could make it just a little better for you
If I could just help you find
That sacred place in your mind
Where the light of understanding love
Outshines the sun
Where the light of understanding love
Outshines the sun
