El final se hacerca ya
Lo esperare serenamente
Ya ves que yo he sido asi
Te lo dire sinceramente
Vivi la inmensidad
Sin conocer jamas fronteras
Jugue sin descansar
Y a mi manera
Jamas vivi un amor
Que para mi fuera, fuera importante
Corte solo la flor
Y lo mejor de cada instante
Viaje y disfrute
No se si mas que otro cualquiera
Si bien, todo esto fue
A mi manera
Tal vez llore o tal vez rei
Tal vez gane o tal vez perdi
Ahora se que fui feliz
Que si llore tambien ame
Puedo seguir hasta el final
A mi manera
Quizas tambien dude
Cuando yo mas me divertia
Quizas yo desprecie
Aquello que yo no comprendia
Hoy se que firme fui
Y que afronte ser como era
Y asi logre vivir
A mi manera
Porque sabras
Que un hombre en fin
Conoceras por su vivir
No hay porque hablar ni que decir
Ni recordar ni que fingir
Puedo seguir hasta el final
A mi manera
Si, a mi manera

How Do You Do It That Way?
How Do You Do It That Way?
Composer(s): Ruth Naomi Floyd; Victoria Spivey
Performer(s): Victoria Spivey & Louis Armstrong
Have you ever had a feeling
that someone would come out leadin' you?
If you had it's not so bad unless you found that it is all untrue
Take a good girl to keep her man, some can't do it, others can
I'm no chump but I would jump if I could find someone that's not unlike me too
Oh when the river runs, flowers are bloomin' in May
And if you get good business, how do you do it that way?
Streetwalkin' women, they are happy and gay
But I'm never happy, how do you get that way?
I want a man to be near, because he bring good care
But the men don't like me, they don't seem to care
Now they can come and go, to and fro every day
But I can't make 'em like me, how do you do it that way?
Now if you want somethin' good, you mustn't knock on wood
Just get a good man to look up under your hood
And when the rooster and the hen go to the barn to play
Oh the hen has chickens, how do they do it that way?

A Mi Hermano
A Mi Hermano
Performer(s): Fernando Ubiergo
Hermano, amigo, hermano
la noche me ha atrapado
como en un sueño largo
lanzándome al pasado
Y recuerdo tu niñez...
recuerdo mi niñez... de ayer
La radio nos decía:
"llegó el hombre a la Luna"
mientras que tú subías
a un árbol de aventuras
tratando de alcanzar
a tu corta edad... el sol
Hermano, aquel tiempo se fue
como un barquito de papel
que al norte de nuestro jardín
perdió su edén
sin brújula y sin capitán
un día tendrá que volver
y llegaremos a esa edad
con otra piel
Hermano, amigo, hermano
compañero de patio
pirata de los nidos
duende de los manzanos,
recuerdo tu niñez
recuerdo mi niñez... de ayer
Mientras la radio hablaba
de una guerra lejana
tú me preguntabas
si el mundo tiene alas
para poder volar
para poder llegar... al sol

Once I said I wanted you, I don't remember why

Just me and you and then we can na na na na
Just like before and you will say na na na na
Please give me more and you will think na na na na
Hey, that's what I'm living for

Please give me more and you will think na na na na
Hey, that's what I'm living for
Once I said I wanted you, and I remember why
I often wonder if it's true you still can make me cry
And now it's not so long ago you said "I love you too"
'Cause I had one solution left and that's to start anew
How do you do? Mm, mm, I thought why not na na na na
Just me and you and then we can na na na na

How Deep Is Your Love
How Deep Is Your Love
Composer(s): Barry Gibb; Robin Gibb; Maurice Gibb
Performer(s): The Bee Gees
I know your eyes in the morning sun
I feel you touch me in the pouring rain
And the moment that you wander far from me
I wanna feel you in my arms again
And you come to me on a summer breeze
Keep me warm in your love and then softly leave
And it's me you need to show ....
How deep is your love? (how deep is your love?)
I really need to learn
'Cause we're living in a world of fools
Breaking us down
When they all should let us be
We belong to you and me
I believe in you
You know the door to my very soul
You're the light in my deepest darkest hour
You're my saviour when I fall
And you may not think
I care for you
When you know down inside
That I really do
And it's me you need to show ....
How deep is your love? (how deep is your love?)
I really need to learn
'Cause we're living in a world of fools
Breaking us down
When they all should let us be
We belong to you and me
How deep is your love? (how deep is your love?)
I really need to learn
'Cause we're living in a world of fools
Breaking us down
When they all should let us be
We belong to you and me
How deep is your love? (how deep is your love?) ......

Message To My Mother
Message To My Mother
Composer(s): Hank Williams Sr.
Performer(s): Hank Williams Sr.; Iron Horse
Take this message to my mother
It will fill her heart with joy
Tell her that I've met my Saviour
God has saved her wand'ring boy
The tears and sorrow I have caused her
How I wish I could repay
But tell her I'll be waiting for her
We'll meet in heaven some glad day
How she cried when I left her
I know it filled her heart with pain
She said, "Son, please don't leave me
For we may never meet again"
Take this message to my mother
It will fill her heart with joy
Tell her that I've met my Saviour
God has saved her wand'ring boy
Years have passed since that parting
But I know she waits and prays
Soon I'll cross that dark river
Please let her know that I was saved
Take this message to my mother
It will fill her heart with joy
Tell her that I've met my Saviour
God has saved her wand'ring boy

How Deep Is The Ocean?
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
Performer(s): Julie London;
and various other artists
How much do I love you?
I'll tell you no lie
How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?

Do I think of you?
How many roses are
Sprinkled with dew?
How far would I travel
Just to be where you are?
How far is the journey
From here to a star?
And if I ever lost you
How much would I cry?
How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?

I just got your letter baby
Too bad you can't come home
I swear I’m goin' crazy
Sittin' here all alone
Since your gone
I got a mess of blues
I ain't slept a week since Sunday
I can't eat a thing all day
Every day is just blue Monday
Since you've been away
Since your gone
I got a mess of blues
Whoops there goes a teardrop
Rollin' down my face
If you cry when you're in love
It sure ain't no disgrace
Whoops there goes a teardrop
Rollin' down my face
If you cry when you're in love
It sure ain't no disgrace
I gotta get myself together
Before I lose my mind
I'm gonna catch the next train goin'
And leave my blues behind
Since your gone
I got a mess of blues
I got a mess of blues

How Cruel
How Cruel
Composer(s): Joan Armatrading
Performer(s): Joan Armatrading
Some people want to see my blood gush out
And others want to watch while I cry
I heard somebody say once I was way too black
And someone answers she's not black enough for me
I bite my tongue and it bites me back
I bought a house and the neighbours moved
I had a dog but it was stolen
Some people say that it's coming
And I'll get it
It must be something I have no control of
They'll put the skin of the fruit on the ground
And I'll slip and fall
Oh how cruel to make a girl cry
Oh how cruel to make a girl cry
Oh how cruel to make a girl cry
I have no hope in hell and I want to get to heaven
Too many lies or not enough sinnin'
Some people say that it's coming
And I'll get it
It must be something I have no control of
They'll put the skin of the fruit on the ground
And I'll slip and fall
Oh how cruel to make a girl cry
Oh how cruel to make a girl cry
Oh how cruel to make a girl cry

A Memory Like I'm Gonna Be
A Memory Like I'm Gonna Be
Composer(s): Jerry Laseter - Roger Murrah
Performer(s): Tanya Tucker
I can hear you smilin' on the 'phone
Bet you thought that I'd be cryin'
Go on, tell yourself I done you wrong
But we both know you'd be lyin'
We don't have to have a reason
If your heart is set on leavin'
To remember on some rainy day
A little simple word or thought
Or a birthday card I bought
Just surrender, 'cause you can't get away
You never can be free
From a memory like I'm gonna be
That greener grass you think you see
Hah, is just a high-heeled illusion
Better count the cost of bein' free
Is it worth all that you're losin'?
It may be over, but it's not ending
'Cause there's one thing you're forgetting
An' you'll remember on some rainy day
The little things we used to do
Like that night in Baton Rouge
Just surrender, 'cause you can't get away
You never can be free
From a memory like I'm gonna be
When it all comes back someday
You'll be surprised on some lonely night
When you close your eyes
Just surrender, 'cause you can't get away
You never can be free
From a memory like I'm gonna be
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(From a memory)
Just surrender, 'cause you can't get away
You never can be free
From a memory like I'm gonna be

A Memory Away
A Memory Away
Composer(s): Warren Robb - David Kirby
Performer(s): Gene Watson
I woke up this morning
Thinking 'bout those times
You and love and I were more
Only on my mind
I let myself go drifting
Way back in my dreams
Let my memory bring you back to me
Your love is just a memory away
I can count on yesterday
I can have you, antyime I want to
You're always just a memory away
Love can change a beggar
Make a poor man king
Love can build a castle
Out of almost anything
Minds can still work miracles
That even I can see
When my memory brings you back to me
Your love is just a memory away
I can count on yesterday
I can have you, anytime I want to
You're always just a memory away
You're always just a memory away

How Could I Love Her So Much?
How Could I Love Her So Much?
Composer(s): Hugh Moffatt
Performer(s): Johnny Rodriguez; Hugh Moffatt
I went over to him, said you may not know me
But I sure do know who you are
Don't worry my anger was spent long ago
And only the memory remains
But Lord, how I suffered, sometimes I still wonder
And maybe now you can explain
Tell me how could I love her so much
And then lose her so quickly to someone like you
How did you know how to hold her and please her
How did you know what to do
After all of the time I spent learning to love her
And be what she needed me to
Tell me how could I love her so much
And then lose her so quickly to someone like you
He said, Friend let me buy you a drink
And I'll tell you a story that's sad, but it's true
How I loved her and held her till some licker stole her
From me, like I stole her from you
I guess no one can own her, her heart's like a soldier
Of fortune, her love's like the wind
Till all I can think of is finding a new love
And asking this question again
How could I love her so much
And then lose her so quickly to someone like you
How did you know how to hold her and please her
How did you know what to do
After all of the time I spent learning to love her
And be what she needed me to
Tell me how could I love her so much
And then lose her so quickly to someone like you
How could I love her so much
And then lose her so quickly to someone like you

A Means To An End
Composer(s): Ian Curtis - Peter Hook - Stephen Morris - Bernard Sumner
First recording/First release by: Joy Division - 1979/1980
Covered by multiple other artists
A legacy so far removed
One day will be improved
Eternal rights we left behind
We were the better kind
Two the same, set free too
I always looked to you
I always looked to you
I always looked to you
We fought for good, stood side by side
Our friendship never died
On stranger waves, the lows and highs
Our vision touched the sky
Immortalists with points to prove
I put my trust in you
I put my trust in you
I put my trust in you
A house somewhere on foreign soil
Where ageless lovers call
Is this your goal, your final needs
Where dogs and vultures eat
Committed still I turn to go
I put my trust in you
I put my trust in you
I put my trust in you
I put my trust in you
In you, in you, in you
Put my trust in you, in you

How Come? (Youssou N'Dour)
How Come?
Composer(s): Charles Alexander; Wyclef Jean; Youssou N'Dour
Performer(s): Youssou N'Dour
Yo
As the universe expands
I contemplate whether it was God
or the Big Bang that made man
Sometimes I wonder how come
We can't live without guns
What would have been the outcome if the South won
Think about that son
What in the hell caused the assassination of Malcolm
The federal communications commission
listens to politicians in the position to
Make certain decisions like puttin' minorities in prison
To decimating the population of women
It's called socialism
From the United States to the United Kingdom
Aahhkk, spit into the sky and extinguish the sun
but how come
In the future
The location is planet Earth
The time and date is 1999, December 31st 11:59 p.m.
the anticipation of what I think's about to happen, got my heart 'beatin
We got less than a minute left before the planet Jupiter is united into a star
I know it sounds bizarre but it's mathematics
A specific sign for some of the planet's inhabitants
Those who understand know what I'm sayin' is accurate
Our country is corrupt from the president to the cabinet
In the year 2, followed by three 0's
The space probe Galileo will welcome us all to channel zero
but how come

A Matter Of Trust
A Matter Of Trust
Composer(s): Billy Joel
Performer(s): Billy Joel
Some love is just a lie of the heart
The cold remains of what began with a passionate start
And they may not want it to end
But it will, it's just a question of when
I've lived long enough to have learned
The closer you get to the fire the more you get burned
But that won't happen to us
Because it's always been a matter of trust
I know you're an emotional girl
It took a lot for you to not lose your faith in this world
I can't offer you proof
But you're gonna face a moment of truth
It's hard when you're always afraid
You just recover when another belief is betrayed
So break my heart if you must
It's a matter of trust
You can't go the distance
With too much resistance
I know you have doubts
But for God's sake don't shut me out
This time you've got nothing to lose
You can take it, you can leave it
Whatever you choose
I won't hold back anything
And I'll walk away a fool or a king
Some love is just a lie of the mind
It's make believe until it's only a matter of time
And some might have learned to adjust
But then it never was a matter of trust
I'm sure you're aware love
We've both had our share of
Believing too long
When the whole situation was wrong
Some love is just a lie of the soul
A constant battle for the ultimate state of control
After you've heard lie upon lie
There can hardly be a question of why
Some love is just a lie of the heart
The cold remains of what began with a passionate start
But that can't happen to us
Because it's always been a matter of trust

How Come? (The Small Faces)
How Come?
Composer(s): Ronnie Lane; Kevin Westlake
Performer(s): The Small Faces; The Pogues
How come when I cut the ace of hearts
You always draw the ace of spades?
How's it when your best friend
Brings you lillies on your birthday?
How come, how come
I ain't superstitious, but these things I seen
How come, how come
I ain't a superstitious fella, but it worries me
How come when the local clergy calls
He tells me that you shouldn't wear black?
What kind of bread are you gonna bake
With that hemlock in your spice rack?
How come, how come
I ain't superstitious, but these things I seen
How come, how come
I ain't a superstitious fella, but it worries me
The spider's run, the cobweb's gone
Did you eat it when the moon was new?
I drowned your cat, what do you say about that?
I've even broken up your broom
How come, how come
I ain't superstitious, but these things I seen
How come, how come
I ain't a superstitious fella, but it worries me
