Out Of The East


Out Of The East
Composer(s): Jean C. Havez; Joe Rosey



Pale moon in the Eastern sky
Look down where Arabs lie
Smile down on the cavalcade
Wake not little dark eyed maid
Dreaming of a Prince so bold
High up on a throne of gold
Singing in a vision rare
Pleading to his dream love fair

Far far from the desert sands
Yonder in the vineyard lands
There dear is the place we'll go
There dear where the breezes blow
Palm trees wave a welcome dear
Swaying in the sunlight clear
Blue skies with an opal glow
Calling bid us gently go

Oriental maiden
Be my jewel laden
Princess all array'd in glory
Dream of love's sweet longing
Tender fancies thronging
Told in royal song and story
See the Sphinx beguiling
Pyramids are smiling
To my sweet heart while in slumber
All the sentimental
All the Oriental
Dreams are born
Out of the East

Minha Selva


Minha Selva
Composer(s): Bernard Lavilliers
Performer(s): Bernard Lavilliers



Des pas au couchant se glissent
Dans la poussière du soleil
Des patios aux dalles lisses
Des hamacs sans sommeil
L'eau transparente qu'on rêve
Et qui jamais n'apparaît
Vient la valse des regrets

Noir labyrinthe des jungles
Où le chasseur disparaît
Egorgé près de son flingue
Par le tigre qu'il voulait
La chaleur et puis la fièvre
Et l'attente du passeur
Voyageur

Minha selva, minha selva

Etre à l'aube des échecs
Seul avec des jivaros
Sans un mot, avec des chefs
Venus du Mato Grosso
C'est la selva qui t'enseigne
La solitude des rois
La solitude

Dans l'abstraction végétale
La forêt prend des allures
Formidables de cathédrales
Dressés dans le clair-obscur
Le temps n'est pas un chantage
Il ne prouve pas le vécu

Minha selva, minha selva

Qui peut vivre ici, des hommes
Qui n'ont jamais connu de loi
Je parle de la loi des hommes
Dont la nature ne veut pas
Qui connaissent comme personne
Tout ce que vous ne saurez pas
La selva

Minha selva, minha selva

Out Of Nowhere


Out Of Nowhere
Composer(s): Edward Heyman; Johnny Green
Performer(s): Lena Horne;
and various other artists



You came to me from out of nowhere
You took my heart and found it free
Wonderful dreams, wonderful schemes from nowhere
Made every hour sweet as a flower to me
And if you should go back to your nowhere
Leaving me with the memory
I’ll always wait for your return out of nowhere
Hoping you’ll bring your love to me

When I least expected, kindly fate directed
You to make each dream of mine come true
And if it’s clear or raining there is no explaining
Things just happened and so did you

You came to me from out of nowhere
You took my heart and you found it free
Wonderful dreams, wonderful schemes from nowhere
Made every hour sweet as a flower to me
And if you should go back to your nowhere
Leaving me with, with the memory
I’ll always wait for your return out of nowhere
Hoping you’ll bring your love to me

Minha História


Minha História
Composer(s): Chico Buarque; Lucio Dalla; P. Pallottino
Performer(s): Chico Buarque; Maria Bethânia



Ele vinha sem muita conversa, sem muito explicar
Eu só sei que falava e cheirava e gostava de mar
Sei que tinha tatuagem no braço e dourado no dente
E minha mãe se entregou a esse homem perdidamente

Ele assim como veio partiu não se sabe pra onde
E deixou minha mãe com o olhar cada dia mais longe
Esperando, parada, pregada na pedra do porto
Com seu único velho vestido cada dia mais curto

Quando enfim eu nasci minha mãe embrulhou-me num manto
Me vestiu como se fosse assim uma espécie de santo
Mas por não se lembrar de acalantos, a pobre mulher
Me ninava cantando cantigas de cabaré

Minha mãe não tardou a lertar toda a vizinhança
A mostrar que ali estava bem mais que uma simples criança
E não sei bem se por ironia ou se por amor
Resolveu me chamar com o nome do Nosso Senhor

Minha história é esse nome que ainda hoje carrego comigo
Quando vou bar em bar, viro a mesa, berro, bebo e brigo
Os ladrões e as amantes, meus colegas de copo e de cruz
Me conhecem só pelo meu nome Menino Jesus

Out Of My Mind


Out Of My Mind
Composer(s): Dino Valenti
Performer(s): Quicksilver



Out of my mind, that's what she said to me
she was unkind, said I was crazy
I thought that was cruel, she didn't know me at all
What can you do when someone tells you you're insane?
She heard the news, knew all about me, I was too strange
She could do very well without me, and I didn't cry, I tried to say hello
But it makes you feel crazy when somebody calls you insane
I tried to tell her things were all right with me, she wouldn't listen for a minute
But then when she told me it was all in my mind, what else can a poor boy do?
It pays to let her fly over to the table
Where the games were measured out in thin white lines
The last time I saw her, she was stoned out of her mind
How many minds had she sent spinning only to find they hadn't gone anywhere at all?
I said that was sad, she didn't understand
It hurts in your heart when somebody says you're insane
I tried to tell her things were all right with me, she wouldn't listen for a minute
But then when she told me it was all in my mind, what else can a poor boy do?
It pays to let her fly over to the table
Where the games were measured out in thin white lines
The last time I saw her she was tryin' to blow her mind
What can you do when someone tells you you're insane?
What can you do?
Stop for a while and listen, stop for a while and listen, and then some easy go your way

Minha Canção


Minha Canção
Composer(s): Chico Buarque
Performer(s): Vania Abreu



Dorme a cidade
Resta um coração
Misterioso
Faz uma ilusão
Soletra um verso
Lavra a melodia
Singelamente
Dolorosamente
Doce a música
Silenciosa
Larga o meu peito
Solta-se no espaço
Faz-se a certeza
Minha cançao
Réstia de luz onde
Dorme o meu irmão

Out Of My Head And Back In My Bed


Out Of My Head And Back In My Bed
Composer(s): Peggy Forman
Performer(s): Loretta Lynn



Lying alone in this big ol' bed
Got you on the mind
I said when you left I could make it by myself
But it gets harder all the time

And I can't take it no more I see your face
Every time I close my eyes
So I'm going out now and I'm lookin' for you
Some winter night

I want you out of my head and back in my bed
'Fore the mornin' sun comes up
I can't stand another night without you holding me tight
I miss your lovin' touch I'm gonna search everywhere
That you might be
When I find you I'm a bringin' you home with me
I want you out of my head and back in my bed
'Fore the mornin' comes

Well I might find somebody new
To share my misery
But no other man can do what you can
When it comes to lovin' me

Oh I don't want nobody to say that
I was a fool for being good
I won't be satisfied till you're
Back in my arms and I'm lovin' you

I want you out of my head and back in my bed
'Fore the mornin' sun comes up
I can't stand another night without you holding me tight
I miss your lovin' touch I'm gonna search everywhere
That you might be
When I find you I'm a bringin' you home with me
I want you out of my head and back in my bed
'Fore the mornin' comes

I want you out of my head and back in my bed
'Fore the mornin' sun comes up
I can't stand another night without you holding me tight
I miss your lovin' touch I'm gonna search everywhere
That you might be
When I find you I'm a bringin' you home with me
I want you out of my head and back in my bed
'Fore the mornin' comes

Mine For Me


Mine For Me
Composer(s): Paul McCartney; Linda McCartney
Performer(s): Rod Stewart



In a couple of hours I'll be drivin' home to the one I love
So save your breath sweet painted lady it won't be me
Over the mountain and under the sea
They'll never be another one like mine for me

It was only an hour or so ago that I sang my song
Persuaded painted ladies that I could say I'd been free
Over the mountain and under the sea
They'll never be another one like mine for me

Mine is always, mine is grand
Don't you know that the woman that love me she understands
And can't you see that it's mine for me
And in a couple of hours I'll be driving home to the one I love
So save your breath sweet painted lady it won't be me
Over the mountain and under the sea
They'll never be another one like mine for me
You're for me

Mine is always, mine is grand
Don't you know that the woman that love me she understands
And can't you see that it's mine for me
They'll never be another one like mine for me
They'll never be another one like mine for me

They'll never be another one like you for me

Out Of My Dreams


Out Of My Dreams
Composer(s): Richard Rogers; Oscar Hammerstein II
Performer(s): Joan Roberts;
and various other artists



Out of my dreams and into your arms I long to fly
I will come as evening comes to woo a waiting sky
Out of my dreams and into the hush of falling shadows
When the mist is low and stars are breaking through
Then out of my dreams I'll go
Into a dream with you
Won't have to make up anymore stories
You'll be there!
Think of the bright midsummer night
Glories we can share
Won't have to go on kissing a daydream
I'll have you
You'll be real
Real as the white moon lighting the blue
Out of my dreams and into your arms I long to fly
I will come as evening comes to woo a waiting sky
Out of my dreams and into the hush of falling shadows,
When the mist is low and stars are breaking through
Then out of my dreams I'll go
Into a dream with you

Mine All Mine


Mine All Mine
Composer(s): Michael Anthony; Sammy Hagar;
Alex Van Halen; Eddie Van Halen
Performer(s): Van Halen



Forgive me father
For I have sinned
I've been through hell and back again
Shook hands with the devil
Looked him in the eye
Looked like a long lost friend
Anything you want
Any dirty deeds
He's got everything
Except what I really need
Keepin' me temporarily satisfied
But not one thing I tried
Filled me up inside
Or felt like mine
Mine, all mine
Yeah, the search goes on
The more I look
My world keeps getting smaller
Staring at the sun
Searchin' for the light
Almost ended up blinded
Some only see
What they want to see
Claiming victory
Oh, but that's not me
Give me truth
Give me something real
I just want to feel
Like it's
Mine, all mine
Oh really mine, all mine
Come on give me something
Something that's mine, all mine, all mine
Mine, all mine
All the words on the wall
Look the same in the mirror
Every riddle
Every clue
You got Allah in the east
You got Jesus in the west
Christ, what's a man to do?
They'll find a cure for anything
Just kill the pain
Numb my brain
We see a man
Speaking the word of God
Provin' to be a fraud
His own church applauds
Stop lookin' out
Start lookin' in
Be your own best friend
Stand up and say
Hey! This is mine
All mine, all mine, all mine
Baby, you got something
And I got something
And it's mine, all mine, all mine
Mine, all mine
Mine, all mine
Yes, I'm searching
Mine, all mine
Got to have it
Mine, all mine
Mine, all mine

Out Of My Control


Out Of My Control
Composer(s): Ken Hensley
Performer(s): Ken Hensley



The empty conversation
The coldness of your touch
The moments of frustration
That always hurt so much
The look in your eyes that seems to say
Nothing’s ever enough
Well it seems like I’ve tried every way
To give you all my love

But it’s out of my control
It’s all up to you
Yes, it’s out of my control
What you gonna do
Everything I say, everything I do
Never seems to satisfy you
So I’ll say it again, I’m gonna let you go
It’s up to you
‘Cause it’s out of my control

I’ve felt this strange resistance
To the things I’ve said and done
And I’ve tried to keep my distance
I knew there was something wrong
But without communication
Without a message from your heart
There’s only empty expectation
And a love that’s torn apart

Mine is a love that always will be true

Out Of Hand


Out Of Hand
Composer(s): Jeff Barry; Tom Jans
Performer(s): Gary Stewart



I never intended
To even know your name

Except for the woman waitin' at home
Involved in the same
I've always been true
Except for you

Not even a one night stand
And I never intended
For it to get so
Out of hand

Out of hand, out of hand
I'm a hard-living kind of a man
I need more to keep me goin'
Than this gold wedding band

You're my kind of woman
I'm your kind of man
Maybe that's the reason
It goes so ... out of hand

I never intended
For it to go this far
I don't think I can get off
From where we are

Some time to waste
So just a taste
Was all... that I had planned

And I never intended
For it to get so
Out of hand

Out of hand, out of hand
I'm a hard living kind of a man
I need more to keep me goin'
Than this gold wedding band

You're my kind of woman
And I'm your kind of a man
Maybe that's the reason
It got so... out of hand

Out of hand, out of hand
I'm a hard loving kind of a man
I need more to keep me goin'
Than this gold wedding band

Mind, Body, And Soul


Mind, Body, And Soul
Composer(s): Ronald Dunbar; Edith Wayne
Performer(s): Flaming Ember



My eyes are closed but yet they see
The beauty of your love here surrounding me
Though you're not here, you're not far away
And in my silence you can hear me say

I give my love to you all my body and soul
I give my mind to you with a love that'll never grow old
Give my love to you all my body and soul
Give my mind to you with a love that'll never grow old

You are my smiles the last tears
You are my days, my weeks, my years
You are the flowers beneath my window sill
You are everything beautiful everything that's real

I give my love to you all my body and soul
I give my mind to you with a love that'll never grow old

One day my life it will be over, but I have no fears
Cause nothing lasts but the years
But I love you now with every breath
And I believe I'll love you more after death

I give my love to you all my body and soul
I give my mind to you with a love that'll never grow old

You are the winter, girl you are the spring
You are the Bible, girl you are the ring
You are the lover you are the friend
You are the beginning, girl you are the end

I give my love to you all my body and soul
I give my mind to you with a love that'll never grow old

Out In The Streets


Out In The Streets
Composer(s): Jeff Barry; Ellie Greenwich
Performer(s): The Shangri-Las;
and various other artists



He don't
hang around
with the gang no more
He don't do the wild things
that he did before
He used to act bad
Used to, but he quit it
It make me so sad
Cause I know that he did it
for me
(Yes he did now)
And I can see
(It's still in the streets)
His heart, out in the street
He don't
comb his hair
like he did before
He don't wear those dirty old
black boots no more
But he's not the same
Somethin about his kissin
That tells me he's changed
I know that something's missing
inside
(mumble mumble)
Somethin's died
(It's still in the streets)
His heart, out in the street
He grew up on the sidewalk
Streetlight shinin above
He grew up with no-one to love
He grew up on the sidewalk
He grew up running free
He grew up and then he met me
He don't
hang around
with the gang no more
Gee, he doesn't smile like
he did before
I wish I didn't care
I wish I'd never met him
They're waitin downstairs
I know I've got to set him
free
(mumble mumble)
He's gotta be
(Out in the street)
His heart is out in the street
He don't hang around with the gang no more
(Out in the street)
He don't hang around with the gang no more
(Out in the street)
He don't hang around with the gang no more
(Out in the street)
(Fade out repeating this)

Mind Your Own Business


Mind Your Own Business
Composer(s): Hank Williams Sr.
Originally performed by: Hank Williams
Covered by various other artists



If the wife and I are fussin', brother that's our right
'Cause me and that sweet woman's got a license to fight
Why don't you mind your own business
(Mind your own business)
'Cause if mind your business, then you won't be mindin' mine

Oh, the woman on our party line's the nosiest thing
She picks up her receiver when she knows it's my ring
Why don't you mind your own business
(Mind your own business)
Well, if mind your business, then you won't be mindin' mine

If my woman stay out 'til two or three
Now, brother that's my headache, don't you worry 'bout me
Just mind your own business
(Mind your own business)
If mind your business, then you won't be mindin' mine

If I get my head beat black and blue
Now that's my wife and my stove wood too
Just mind your own business
(Mind your own business)
If mind your business, then you won't be mindin' mine

I got a little gal that wears her hair up high
the boys all whistel when she walks bye
mind your own buisness blah blah, you sure won't be minding mine

Mindin' other people's business seems to be high-toned
I got all that I can do just to mind my own
Why don't you mind your own business
(Mind your own business)
If you mind your own business, you'll stay busy all the time

Mind Over Matter


Mind Over Matter
Performer(s): Saga



So what's the problem
You say you care
When they really need you
You're not there
This isn't something
You can rise above
Do you wanna help or
Do you want the shove
You say you need some action
You say it's time for a change
When I hear you talkin'
You sound so lame
Don't things look different
In the light of day
But if you get nothin'
You got nothin' to say
Blue sky's today
You talk about tomorrow like it's just another day
No more to say
Don't tell me you care then look the other way
Mind over matter
If you don't mind it really doesn't matter
Just don't waste my time
Mind over matter
If you don't mind it really doesn't matter
You're wasting precious time
Say you've got the answer
You know what to do
You're such a fancy dancer
Who's payin' you
There's such a fine line
Between love and hate
You won't know the difference
Till it's too late
What's the problem
You say you care
When they really need you
You're not there
This isn't something
You can rise above
I hear you talkin'
But it's not enough

Out In The Street (Bruce Springsteen)


Out In The Street
Composer(s): Bruce Springsteen
Performer(s): Bruce Springsteen



Put on your best dress baby
And darlin', fix your hair up right
Cause there's a party, honey
Way down beneath the neon lights
All day you've been working that hard line
Now tonight you're gonna have a good time

I work five days a week girl
Loading crates down on the dock
I take my hard earned money
And meet my girl down on the block
And Monday when the foreman calls time
I've already got Friday on my mind

When that whistle blows
Girl, I'm down the street
I'm home, I'm out of my work clothes
When I'm out in the street
I walk the way I wanna walk
When I'm out in the street
I talk the way I wanna talk
When I'm out in the street
When I'm out in the street

When I'm out in the street, girl
Well, I never feel alone
When I'm out in the street, girl
In the crowd I feel at home
The black and whites they cruise by
And they watch us from the corner of their eye

But there ain't no doubt girl, down here
We ain't gonna take what they're handing out
When I'm out in the street
I walk the way I wanna walk
When I'm out in the street
I talk the way I wanna talk
Baby, out in the street I don't feel sad or blue
Baby, out in the street I'll be waiting for you

When the whistle blows
Girl, I'm down the street
I'm home, I'm out of my work clothes
When I'm out in the street
I walk the way I wanna walk
When I'm out in the street
I talk the way I wanna talk

When I'm out in the street
Pretty girls, they're all passing by
When I'm out in the street
From the corner, we give them the eye

Baby, out in the street I just feel all right
Meet me out in the street, little girl, tonight
Meet me out in the street
Meet me out in the street
