Welcome Home
Welcome Home
Composer(s): Bud Green; Ed. Nelson
Skies of gray have given way to brightness
Hearts that once were sad are feeling gay
The news has flashed around
Our boys are Homeward bound
And we'll be there to meet them just to say
Every mother's waiting for her loved one
Every sweetheart's waiting at the pier
Each baby will be glad
To see her fighting Dad
And this whole nation's proud to see you here
Welcome home the day of peace on earth is here
Welcome home what words of cheer
We've kept our home fires a burning while yearning for you
Your vacant chair is waiting too
you know you're
Welcome home
Each mother's heart sings out with joy
Welcome home my soldier boy
And now that all the war clouds safely have past
And God has brought me sunshine at last
Oh welcome, welcome, you are welcome home

Acércate
Acércate
Performer(s): José Feliciano
Eres tu quien ha dejado huellas del amor en mi solo calor
llegaste a mi, como paloma blanca tan sutil, a mi alma le brindó amor
Acércate, abrázame más fuerte porque así sabré, lo que es vivir
en sueños cuando a solas pienso en ti, momentos tan feliz
con cada día espero la fe que tu calor dejo en mi
Mujer, sabrás podré encontrar la dicha que el amor, por ti yo conocí
y se que no, encuentro amor igual como el que tu, amor sincero así, al fin
Acércate, abrázame más fuerte porque así sabré, lo que es vivir
en sueños cuando a solas pienso en ti, momentos tan feliz
con cada día espero la fe que tu calor dejo en mi
La dicha es inmensa ya, con los días que faltarán
yo de amor y más, intenso no puede ser, eyyy
Acércate, tómame en tus brazos porque así sabré lo que es vivir....
(Ohhh abrázame y acércate a mi, eyyy)

Welcome Back
Composer(s): John Sebastian
Performer(s): John Sebastian
Welcome back, your dreams were your ticket out
Welcome back, to that same old place that you laughed about
Well the names have all changed since you hung around
But those dreams have remained and they've turned around
Who'd have thought they'd lead ya
(who'd have thought they'd lead ya)
Back here where we need ya
(back here where we need ya)
Yeah we tease him a lot cause we got him on the spot
Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back, welcome back
Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back
We always could spot a friend, welcome back
And I smile when I think how you must have been
And I know what a scene you were learning in
Was there something that made you come back again
And what could ever lead ya
(what could ever lead ya)
Back here where we need ya

Yeah we tease him a lot cause we got him on the spot
Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back, welcome back

Cause we got him on the spot, welcome back, welcome back
Yeah we tease him a lot cause we got him on the spot
Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back, welcome back
Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back
Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back

Acerca Del Amor
Acerca Del Amor
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Ahora nadie realmente me está escuchando
pero yo quiero hacerle una canción a mi amor
Como no he tenido amores duraderos
nadie va a pensar que estoy hablando de sí
cuando diga cosas del abrazo
de las despedidas y los besos
El beso de que hablo
se lo pude haber dado a mi guitarra
Los rostros son como estaciones
pasan llenos de hojas amarillas
de soles ardorosos, de vientos arropados
Nadie tiene estaciones en su haber
Todo el mundo se queda bajo su piel
caliente
El calor y la brisa retozan afuera
la verdad y la mentira retozan afuera
los proyectos de cielo, la paciencia del tiempo
una sombra en la que crees ver la luz
pero tanto la aurora como la cruz quedan afuera
Es aire que se respira y que se deja
se queda
Heme aquí hablando al mismo ritmo
de muchas direcciones, de mil oscuridades
que han servido para emprender abrazos
sitios donde han rodado tantos cuerpos
vacíos o plenos
Para qué describir el pelo del amor
si el pelo del amor cambia de forma
Para qué pronunciar los vanos trazos
Conque a veces descubro el desconcierto
No digo, no hablo
Yo no describo la risa del amor
pues si acaso dijera que su risa amanece
en la buena penumbra de una calle desierta
que hay un sol sumergido en sus labios terribles
mis ojos fueran manos en la oscuridad
y no
son ojos, pese a todo
son ojos mis ojos
Mi amor existe y nunca se peina
ni ríe ni mira
Es amor solamente
Sólo amor

Oh, to make me know baby
(What can I do?)
Ooh, show me that you care
(What can I say?)
Hmmm, got to have your number baby
(What can I do?)
Do-oo-oo-oo
Can't you see the people just stop and stare?
Don't it make you wonder why?
I just happened to be standing there
Can't you see it in my eyes?
(What can I say?)
Hmmm, you got me actin' like a fool girl
(What can I do?)
Ooh, stop making like a little school girl
(What can I say?)

Hmmm, let's talk

Ahh, talk to me girl
(What can I say?)
Oh, to make you know baby
(What can I do?)
Oh, to show you that I care

(What can I do?)
Ooh, what can I do?
(What can I say?)
What can I say, b-a-b-y

Weisser Holunder
Weisser Holunder
Performer(s): Ditta Zuza Einzinger (aka Lolita)
Weisser Holunder, er blühte im Garten
Als übers Jahr glücklich ich war
Er sagt zum Abschied ich soll auf Ihm warten
Den übers Jahr sind wir ein Paar
Nun wird ja weisser Holunder das Jahr ist vorbei
Ich glaubt’ an das Wunder von Liebe und Treu
Weisser Holunder blüht wieder im Garten
Du bleibst mir Treu, blühst immer aufs neu
Im Garten ein Mädchen mit frühlichen Sinn
Die wartet voll Sehnsucht auf Ihn, nur auf Ihn
Es blühen die bunten Blumen im leuchtenden Kleid
Im Baum die Amseln singt Ihre Lieder von Liebe und Leid
Nun wird der weisser Holunder, das Jahr ist vorbei
Ich glaubt’ an das Wunder von Liebe und Treu
Weisser Holunder blüht wieder im Garten
Du bleibst mir Treu, blühst immer aufs neu, blühst immer aufs neu ….

Aceitunas
Aceitunas
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Tus piernas de 3 a 6 de la tarde
En la memoria de pronto me arden
Y cuando quiero aliviar mi locura
Sólo me calma comer aceitunas
Una aceituna mordida le ha
Vuelto la vida a todo tu sabor
Maravillado, respiro y siento tu olor
O yo deliro, o me corta tu filo
Hasta el límite de la ilusión
Como despacio, y alargo el espacio
Entre el beso inicial y el de adiós
Una aceituna mordida le ha
Vuelto la vida a todo tu sabor
Maravillado, respiro y siento tu olor
Y aquí me tienes, bien aferrado
A la semilla, cómo colgando de ti
Tus piernas de 3 a 6 de la tarde
En la memoria de pronto me arden
Y cuando quiero aliviar mi locura
Sólo me calma comer aceitunas

What Can I Do For You?
What Can I Do For You?
Composer(s): Bob Dylan
Performer(s): Bob Dylan;
and various other artists
You have given everything to me
What can I do for You?
You have given me eyes to see
What can I do for You?
Pulled me out of bondage and
You made me renewed inside
Filled up a hunger that had always been denied
Opened up a door no man can shut and
You opened it up so wide
And You've chosen me to be among the few
What can I do for You?
You have laid down Your life for me
What can I do for You?
You have explained every mystery
What can I do for You?
Soon as a man is born, you know the sparks begin to fly
He gets wise in his own eyes and he's made to believe a lie
Who would deliver him from the death he's bound to die?
Well, You've done it all and there's no more anyone can pretend to do
What can I do for You?
You have given all there is to give
What can I do for You?
You have given me life to live
How can I live for You?
I know all about poison, I know all about fiery darts
I don't care how rough the road is, show me where it starts
Whatever pleases You, tell it to my heart
Well, I don't deserve it but I sure did make it through
What can I do for You?

Ace Of Hearts
Ace Of Hearts
Composer(s): Steve Ferrone - Alan Gorrie - Hamish Stuart
Performer(s): Average White Band
Just to be with you now
is one thing I can't imagine
'Cos the part you play today
is the one that was missing
And from where I stand right now
I can see - so clearly
that with every passing day
I want more of this magic
You're the ace of hearts
number one in everything
that comes to mind
I think about it all the time
how you won my heart - easy,
Easy was the game you played -
Easy 'cos you had it made
So you see what you have done
and there's no way to undo it
I have only just begun
to understand it
Now on thing is clear to me
there is love and there is real love
and the only way to know
is feel what I'm feeling
You're the ace of hearts
number one in everything
that comes to mind
I think about it all the time
how you won my heart - easy
Easy was the game you played -
Easy 'cos you had it made

Wegen
Wegen
Performer(s): Boudewijn de Groot
Al ben ik meer dan eens de weg kwijt
En rij ik hele einden om
Al zou ik niet weten waar je woont
Ik ben op weg om je te vinden
Dus wees gerust vannacht ik kom
Ik zal eindeloos blijven reizen
Zelfs al mis ik de laatste trein
Ik wil alleen maar bij je zijn
Al leiden honderdduizend wegen
Allemaal naar een ander doel
Al zou ik niet weten wie je bent
Ik ben op weg om je te vinden
Vannacht rij ik op m'n gevoel
Laten we er niet aan denken
Hoeveel wegen er nog zijn
Ik wil alleen maar bij je zijn
Al zou ik niet weten waar ik vandaan kom
En ook niet wat ik gister deed
Ik weet alleen maar wat ik wil
Ik ben op weg om je te vinden
En ik weet dat jij dat weet
Hoe ver het ook is, hoe lang de wegen
Vanavond is de wereld klein
Ik wil alleen maar bij je zijn
Hoe ver het ook is, hoe lang de wegen
Vanavond is de wereld klein
Want ik wil bij je zijn
Ik wil alleen maar bij je zijn

Ace In The Hole
Composer(s): Cole Porter
First performance by: Mary Jane Walsh, Sunnie O'Day, Nanette Fabray - 1941
Covered by multiple other artists
Sad times, may follow your tracks
Bad times, may bar you from Sak's
At times, when Satan in slacks
Breaks down your self control
Maybe, as often it goes
Your Abe-y, may tire of his rose
So baby, this rule I propose
Always have an ace in the hole
Sad times, may follow your tracks
Bad times, may bar you from Sak's
At times, when Satan in slacks
Breaks down your self control
Maybe, as often it goes
Your Abe-y, may tire of his rose
So baby, this rule I propose
Always have an ace in the hole
Always have an ace in the hole

Weer Gelukkig Zijn
Weer Gelukkig Zijn
Composer(s): Jimmy Frey; Andy Free
Performer(s): Jimmy Frey
Klamp je vast aan wat je wereld nog kan geven
Ook al draait die niet zo rond meer als voorheen
Laat je zorgen en problemen niet regeren
Over alles wat je lief is om je heen
In het diepst van onze donker grauwste nachten
Houden jij en ik ons laatste wapen klaar
Want in liefde schuilen ongewone krachten
Die de mensen weer doen leven voor elkaar
Weer gelukkig zijn
Veel meer tederheid
Weer tevreden zijn
Dat is 't geheim
Weer gelukkig zijn
Meer genegenheid
Meer gezelligheid
En neem meer tijd
Geef je kleren weer de kleuren van de vreugde
Laat je in die grijze mensenmassa zien
Durf je weer in elke morgen te verheugen
En geniet van wat het toeval heeft voorzien
Stop een glimlach in de motor van je leven
Speel weer Romeo op zoek naar romantiek
Durf weer vrijen met de zwier van 007
En slik elke dag je dosis fantasie
Weer gelukkig zijn
Veel meer tederheid
Weer tevreden zijn
Dat is 't geheim
Weer gelukkig zijn
Meer genegenheid
Meer gezelligheid
En neem meer tijd
Weer gelukkig zijn
Veel meer tederheid
Weer tevreden zijn
Dat is 't geheim
Weer gelukkig zijn
Meer genegenheid
Meer gezelligheid
En neem meer tijd
Weer gelukkig zijn
Veel meer tederheid
Weer tevreden zijn

Ace In The Hole (George Strait)
Ace In The Hole
Composer(s): Dennis Adkins
Performer(s): George Strait
You've got to have an ace in the hole
A little secret that nobody knows
Life is a gamble, a game we all play
But you need to save something for a rainy day
You've got to learn to play your cards right if you expect to win in life
Don't put it all on the line for just one roll
You've got to have an ace in the hole
If you're headed down a one way street
And you're not sure it's the way you wanna go
In money or love, or all the above
Have a little more than what you show
When life deals out a surprise
Have a few surprises of your own
No matter what you do, no matter where you go
You've got to have an ace in the hole
You've got to have an ace in the hole
A little secret that nobody knows
Life is a gamble, a game we all play
But you need to save something for a rainy day
You've got to learn to play your cards right if you expect to win in life
Don't put it all on the line for just one roll
You've got to have an ace in the hole
Don't put it all on the line for just one roll
You've got to have an ace in the hole
No matter what you do, no matter where you go
You've got to have an ace in the hole

Weep No More My Lady (Let Me See Your Smile)
Weep No More My Lady (Let Me See Your Smile)
Composer(s): L. Wolfe Gilbert
Harold Jones he courted little Josephine
and what a queen, was Josephine
'Till she started reading Laura Libbey Jean
and now's she lost her little winning disposition
no more loving sunny smile, sobbing, sighing, all the while
Harold couldn't stand it, so he said "My dear, I want to say right here"
Crazy 'bout the photo play is Josephine
the crying scene up on the screen reads a novel of every night
and in between woeful Josie cries enough to fill a bucket
'fact I've heard some people say, she read "Three Weeks" in one day
Every time it's raining Harold always sneers "Those are Josie's tears"
Weep no more my lady I want to see your sunny smile!
Stop now, stop now you weeping willow!
All night you cry upon your pillow
Weep no more my lady can't you stop that for awhile
I know you show you're temperamental, but it won't go
please don't be sentimental, 'cause you won me with your wonderful smile

Performer(s): Barry Manilow;
and various other artists
Last night, I waved goodbye, now it seems years
I'm back in the city, where nothin' is clear
But thoughts of me, holdin' you, bringin' us near
Chorus
And tell me
When will our eyes meet?
When can I touch you?
When will this strong yearnin' end?
And when will I hold you again?
Time in New England, took me away
Long rocky beaches and you by the bay
We started a story whose end must now wait
Chorus
I feel the change comin', I feel the wind blow
I feel brave and daring!, I feel my blood flow, oh
With you I could bring out all the love that I have
With you there's a heaven, so earth ain't so bad
Chorus

Accroche Un Ruban
((Adapted from: Tie A Yellow Ribbon 'Round The Ole Oak Tree (by Dawn & Tony Orlando) - 1973
Composer(s): Irwin Levine - L. Russell Brown - Jean Broussolle
Performer(s): Sacha Distel - 1973
J'ai fait trois ans
J'ai fait mon temps
Pendant trente-six mois
Je n'ai pensé qu'à toit
Si tu as reçu mon mot
Comme quoi j'arrivais bientôt...
Tu sais ce que tu dois faire
Si tu m'aimes encore...
Si tu m'aimes encore...
Accroche un ruban au bord de ton balcon
Ce sera ta façon de dire oui ou non
Et s'il n'y a pas de ruban au bord du balcon
Moi dans mon taxi, j'aurai vite compris
Que tout est fini...
S'il n'y a pas de ruban au bord de ton balcon...
Monsieur l'taxi
Je vous en prie...
Regardez pour moi
Moi je ne pourrai pas...
J'ai si peur qu'elle ne m'aime plus
Je suis complètement perdu...
D'un simple ruban, mais oui
Dépend toute ma vie...
Car, j'avais écrit...
Accroche un ruban au bord de ton balcon
Ce sera ta façon de dire oui ou non
Et s'il n'y a pas de ruban au bord du balcon
Moi dans mon taxi, j'aurai vite compris
Que tout est fini...
S'il n'y a pas de ruban au bord de ton balcon...
Soudains je n'en crois pas mes yeux
Car je vois à l'horizon...
Des milliers de rubans
Au bord de ton balcon...
