Wish Me A Rainbow
Wish Me A Rainbow
Composer(s): Ray Evans; Jay Livingston
Performer(s): Astrud Gilberto;
Hugh X. Lewis; Jay Livingston; Patti Page
Wish me a rainbow and wish me the stars
All this you can give me
Wherever you are
And dreams for my pillow
And stars for my eyes
And a masquerade ball
Where our love wins first prize
Wish me red roses and yellow balloons
And caress us whirling
To gay dancing tunes
I want all these treasures
The most you can give
So wish me a rainbow
As long as I live
All my tomorrows
Depend on your love
So wish me a rainbow above
All my tomorrows
Depend on your love
So wish me a rainbow above

Almaz
Almaz
Composer(s): Randy Crawford
First release by: Randy Crawford - 1986
Covered by multiple other artists
She only smiles
He only tell her that she's the flower of wind and spring
In all her splendor sweetly surrendering the love
that innocence brings
Almaz, pure and simple
Born in a world where love survives
Now men will want her
'Cause life don't haunt her
Almaz, you lucky lucky thing
Now I watch closely and I watch wholly
I can't imagine love so rare
She's young and tender
But will I bend her?
I look around if she everything
Almaz, pure and simple
Born in a world where love survives
Now men will want her
'Cause life don't haunt her
Almaz, you lucky lucky thing
He throws her kisses
She shares his wishes
I'm sure he's king without a doubt with love so captive
so surely captive
I ask if I could play the part
Almaz, pure and simple
Born in a world where love survives
Now men will want her
'Cause life don't haunt her
Almaz, you lucky lucky thing

Wish I May, Wish I Might
Wish I May, Wish I Might
Composer(s): Hugh Martin; Ralph Blane
Performer(s): Mel Tormé;
and various other artists
Needles, pins, triplets, twins
When a man marries, his troubles begin
When a man dies, his troubles end
Let's touch thumbs and see who wins
Wish I may, wish I might
Get the wishes I'm wishing tonight
A young cadet, blonde or brunette
A Romeo in search of Juliet
Wish I might, wish I may
Get the wishes I'm wishin' today
A lot of poise, a lot of noise
And an awful lot of boys
I want a date, who'll stay out late
A brother rat who'd leave me flat won't rate
Want some orchids from New York
A wrap of taffeta will be round me
Scads of lads will hound me
And they will cheer
For the belle of the ball of the year
So hold me close and hug me tight
For that's the wish I wish I may I might
Wish I had an old jalop job
Just a little olden top job
Wish I had myself a C card
That would suit me to a T pard
I could take my date a-drivin'
And I would get the wish I wish I tonight
Wish he'd send a dozen roses
Wish I had the proper clotheses
Wish I had a slinky hairdo
Wish my evening dress was Bardeaux
I would knock their little eyes out
If I could get the wish I wish tonight
Wish we didn't have a chaperone
Wish we had a chance to be all alone
We could slip away and tell jokes and drink Cokes
But this we're afraid the prom would never condone
And so we wish we may, we wish me might
Just to see the latest dancing craze
Makes me wish for my romancing days
Seeing babies in the wild woods now
Makes me wish for second childhood now
Needles, pins, triplets, twins
Ah, ah, ah
Give a yell, give a cheer
For the belle of the ball of the year
So hold me close and hug me tight
For that's the wish I wish I may, I might

The Lady Is A Woman
The Lady Is A Woman
Composer(s): Dick Feller
Performer(s): Jerry Reed
She's elegant she's gracious a lady of the finest social set
And you're the rich man that can buy her all the world
And what she wants she gets
You give her charge to count some cheque books
Thinking that's the way to keep her satisfied
But what she needs the most is what no charge or count of cheque book ever buy
The lady is a woman even you should understand
While the lady may need soft things the woman needs a man
Yes the lady is a woman that you can be certain of
While your lady wants for nothing still your woman wants for love
[ guitar ] Well all I do is drive your limousine and chauffer you the way you'd like to go
But when I look at your lady even I can see there's something you don't know
You give her everything she wanted but not one of the things she really needs
Yes you still may have your lady but lately now your woman comes to me
Your lady is a woman even you should understand
While your lady may need soft things still your woman needs a man
Your lady is a woman that you can be certain of
While your lady wants for nothing still your woman wants for love

Composer(s): Frank Boeijen
Zoals je daar nu zit
Met betraande ogen
Wat is er mis
Wat kan ik voor je doen
Vertel me alles
Wat gebeurd is
Misschien dat ik iets weet
Linda, Linda
Ik wil alles voor je
Linda, Linda
Ik wil alles voor je doen
Linda, ik wil alles voor je doen
Gaan we naar Parijs
De Moulin Rouge
Of naar New York
Broadway-lights
We slapen
1001 nacht
In 1001 hotel
Hmmm
Linda, Linda
Ik wil alles voor je
Linda, Linda, Linda
Ik wil alles voor je doen
Linda, ik wil alles voor je
Linda, Linda, Linda
Ik wil alles voor je
Linda, Linda
Ik wil alles voor je doen

Almanaque
Almanaque
Composer(s): Chico Buarque
Performer(s): Chico Buarque
Ô menina vai ver nesse almanaque como é que isso tudo começou
Diz quem é que marcava o tique-taque e a ampulheta do tempo disparou
Se mamava de sabe lá que teta o primeiro bezerro que berrou
Me responde, por favor
Pra onde vai o meu amor
Quando o amor acaba
Quem penava no sol a vida inteira, como é que a moleira não rachou
Me diz, me diz
Quem tapava esse sol com a peneira e quem foi que a peneira esfuracou
Quem pintou a bandeira brasileira que tinha tanto lápis de cor
Me responde por favor
Pra onde vai o meu amor
Quando o amor acaba
Diz quem foi que fez o primeiro teto que o projeto não desmoronou
Quem foi esse pedreiro, esse arquiteto, e o valente primeiro morador
Diz quem foi que inventou o analfabeto e ensinou o alfabeto ao professor
Me responde por favor
Pra onde vai o meu amor
Quando o amor acaba
Quem é que sabe o signo do capeta, o ascendente de Deus Nosso Senhor
Quem não fez a patente da espoleta explodir na gaveta do inventor
Quem tava no volante do planeta que o meu continente capotou
Me responde por favor
Pra onde vai o meu amor
Quando o amor acaba
Vê se tem no almanaque, essa menina, como é que termina um grande amor
Se adianta tomar uma aspirina ou se bate na quina aquela dor
Se é chover o ano inteiro chuva fina ou se é como cair o elevador
Me responde por favor
Pra que tudo começou
Quando tudo acaba

(Wish I Could) Hideaway
(Wish I Could) Hideaway
Composer(s): John C. Fogerty
Performer(s): Creedence Clearwater Revival
Howdy, friend, begging your pardon
Is there something on your mind?
You've gone and sold all your belongings
Is that something in your eye?
Well, I know you really never
Liked the way it all goes down
Go on, Hideaway
What's that you say?
We're all bound for the graveyard
Ooh, I wish you well
Think it's gonna rain
Oh, what's the difference
Is there some way I can help?
'Cause you know, I'm gonna miss you
When you're gone, oh, Lord
Wish I Could Hideaway
Hold on, give yourself a chance
I can hear the leaving train
All aboard! Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye!
Ooh, I wish you well
See you soon, maybe tomorrow
You can never tell
"Cause you know, I'm gonna miss you
When you're gone, oh
Wish I could Hideaway
Hideaway, hideaway, hideaway, hideaway
Hideaway, hideaway
Hideaway, hideaway

Alma, Corazón Y Vida
Alma, Corazón Y Vida
Composer(s): Adrián Flores
Performer(s): Raphael
and multiple other artists
Recuerdo aquella vez que yo te conocí
Recuerdo aquella tarde
Pero no me acuerdo ni como te vi
Pero si te diré que yo me enamoré
De esos tus lindos ojos
De tus labios rojos que no olvidaré
Oye esta canción que lleva
Alma, corazón y vida
Esas tres cositas nada más te doy
Porque no tengo fortuna
Estas tres cosas te ofrezco
Alma, corazón y vida
y nada más
Alma para conquistarte
Corazón para quererte
Y vida para vivirla junto a ti

Slaapwals
Slaapwals
Performer(s): Bart Peeters
Ik zal Irak nooit binnenvallen
Ik ben betrouwbaar tot en met
Ik stamp nooit in iemand zijn ballen
Ik surf nooit naar seks op het internet
Ik wil niemand in de weg staan
Ik ben nooit fake of nep
Omdat mijn stoppen enkel doorslaan
Als ik slecht geslapen heb
Ik ga nooit in Holland wonen
Ik roep nooit: Vlaanderen vrij
Of tegen ultra-francofonen
Jullie doen net zo flauw als wij
Je zal me zellen drugs zien dealen
Ik geef nooit een vrouw een mep
Ik krijg alleen maar dat debiele
Als ik slecht geslapen heb
Ik zou nooit om te plagen
Aan iemand zonder benen vragen
Welke snelheid hij nog haalt met zijn step
Ik stop nooit om te pesten
Zowat condooms in vreemde vesten
Tenzij ik slecht geslapen heb
Ik wil een misverstand vermijden
Dus zeg ik eerlijk en oprecht
En in alle bescheidenheid
Slapen kan ik echt ... heel slecht

Alma Mía En La Noche
Alma Mía En La Noche
Composer(s): Horacio Guarany
Performer(s): Horacio Guarany
Alma
alma mía en la noche
Vuela
como un pájaro azul
Sueña
con la paz de los hombres
con la risa de un niño
con tu amor y mi amor
Alma
corazón en las nubes
Busca
tu ternura y tu luz
dulce
mi guitarra te canta
canción que en mi garganta
se hace llanto por vos
Adonde irás
poema gris
cuando no esté
cerca de ti?
adónde iré
cuando no estés?
La vida no es verdad
sin ti...
Alma
tanto amor en las manos
quema
como un infierno cruel
busca
como un pájaro ciego
esa paz y el sosiego que le da tu querer
Deja
que murmure la gente
Ama
como nunca has de amar
piensa
que tu llanto es mi llanto
y cuando haya una pena
junto a ti he de llorar

Wisdom Of A Fool
Wisdom Of A Fool
Composer(s): Roy Alfred; Abner Silver
Performer(s): Barbara Mandrell;
and various other artists
If you’re lucky enough
To have someone who loves you
Then be glad that you got
Someone who loves you
Cold lips that were warm
Can grow cool
Listen to the wisdom of a fool
When you take his poor heart
And you do something to it
And you think to yourself
Why did I do it
You may find that the
World can be cruel
Listen to the wisdom of a fool
Now I had a love
Just the same as you
And I was a fool
Not to see
But you still have time to say
Your love him
I’m afraid it’s too late for me
So, go back to the arms
That you know will be waiting
Hold him close in your arms
And be glad that he’s waiting
You’ll be happy
Believe me, if you’ll
Only listen to the wisdom of a fool
Only listen to the wisdom of a fool

Alma Mater (Chicago)
Alma Mater
Composer(s): Terry Kath
Performer(s): Chicago
Looking back a few short years
When we made our plans and played the cards
The way they fell
Clinging to our confidence
We stood on the threshold of the goal
That we knew dear
And though we... had our fights
Had our short... tempered nights
I couldn't pull our dreams apart
All our needs and all our wants
Drawn together in our heart
We felt it from the very start
It's all happened recently
Now we're living in that dream
We had not long ago
Everything is going fine
And now we just have to keep in mind...
We must set... brand new goals
We must not... lose control
Of the possiblity... of finding the discovery
That would let everybody see
That we were just meant to be

My love, the days are colder
So, let me take your hand
And lead you through a snow-white land
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
My love, the year is older
So, let me hold you tight
And wile away this winter night
Oh, oh
I see the firelight in your eyes
Come kiss me now, before it dies
We'll find a winter world of love
'Cause love is warmer in December
My darling, stay here in my arms
Till summer comes along
And in our winter world of love
You see, we always will remember
That as the snow lay on the ground
We found our winter world of love
Because the nights are longer
We'll have the time to say such tender things
Before each day
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
And then, when love is stronger
Perhaps, you'll give your heart
And promise that we'll never part, oh, no
And at the end of every year
I'll be so glad to have you near
We'll find a winter world of love
'Cause love is warmer in December
My darling, stay here in my arms
Till summer comes along
And in our winter world of love
You see, we always will remember
That as the snow lay on the ground
We found our winter world of love

Rain is falling
Down my cheek
Searching for the sea

But you know
It breaks my heart
To leave you

Winterwood
Composer(s): Don McLean
Performer(s): Don McLean;
and various other artists
No-one can take your place with me
And time has proven that I'm right
There's no place I'd rather be
Than at your place for the night
No time can pass your sight unseen
No moment steals away unfound
Lifetime lived in such a dream
Floats like a feather to the ground
(Chorus)
And for the first time I've been seeing
The things I'd never notice, without you
And for the first time I'm discovering
The things I use to treasure, about you
The birds like leaves on Winterwood
Sing hopeful songs on dismal days
They've learned to live life as they should
They are at peace with natures ways
You are as natural as the night
And all that springs from you is good
And the children born beneath your light
Are like the birds on Winterwood
(Chorus)

Composer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez
Performer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez
Podrás tener mucha suerte
podrás andar por el mundo
destrozando corazones
podrás tener mil amores
pero este que estás dejando
aunque quisieras no lo repones
Tú sabes que soy parejo
ya te lo dije una vez
si yo no te causo penas
no quiero que me las des
Tú ya conoces mi vida
a veces me ando cayendo
y el orgullo me levanta
nací con el alma de acero
y aunque deveras te quiero
te dejo que me abandones
nomás no llores si alguién te canta
Tú sabes que soy parejo
ya te lo dije una vez
si yo no te causo penas
no quiero que me las des

Wintertime winds blow cold this season
fallin' in love I'm hopin' to be
Wind is so cold, is that the reason keeping you warm
your hands touching me
Come with me, dance, my dear
winter's so cold this year
You are so warm, my wintertime love to be
Wintertime winds, blue and freezin'
comin' from northern storms in the sea
Love has been lost, is that the reason trying desperately to be free
Come with me, dance, my dear
winter's so cold this year
You are so warm, my wintertime love to be
Come with me, dance, my dear
winter's so cold this year
You are so warm, my wintertime love to be
