The Wine Of Youth
The Wine Of Youth
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
While we still hold, the card in our hands
the fleeing treasure, of youth we know
we're living life to its full measure
For the fruit of love is growing
when the wine of youth is flowing
And while we hear life's distant bells still ringing laughter
we're full of hope, we're blessed with joy, we have no care
So let us drink, while life is brimming
with the wine of youth
Time, so swiftly flies, our summer skies soon slip away
Time, so swiftly wings, each parting wings
each chandelles sadness, so timeless
And then in vain, we cup our hands and catch but sorrow
Each drop of time, like falling rain, knows no tomorrow
We can't hold and sip forever from the wine of youth
Before we learn to smile, our smiles are behind us
Before we learn to live, our life has run away
In a momentary sigh, before we understand
we watch it all go by
We'll never know that time, time again
And then in vain, we cup our hands and catch but sorrow
Each drop of time, like falling rain, knows no tomorrow
We can't hold and sip forever from the wine of youth

Communication
Communication
Performer(s): David McCallum
How can we get through to him?
Who am I? Where am I going?
With no time to spare as a man rowing from a shoreless lake
Never slowing the pace, but never spying land
I am as most people, I suppose, lost, not knowing why
But I need to know
(We need your love the whole day through)
(We need your love the whole night too)
(But how can we get through to you)
(Help us to stop, stop feeling blue)
(Communication, yes, yes, communication)
(Please help us get through to you)
I know, I'll go and see what men have done before me, in the past
In case there's one who wrote or drew or painted, perhaps in fun
A moment of his life that gave him pause
Who knows, the answer may lie in the heat of the Sun
( I saw him with Mylene at the movies
I saw him with Pat at the store. Pat's a blond
I'm a blond. Can I get a date with him? Do you
really think I could?)
(We need your love the whole day through)
(We need your love the whole night too)
(But how do we get through to you)
(Help us to stop, stop feeling blue)
(Communication, yes, yes, communication)
I must find myself before it's too late
In life or death, in love or hate
In peace and war, or through the gates of Hell
If that's the way to seek my fate
And then, and only then could you get through to me
And then, if all is well, we'd make a date
But not now, you see I really have to go
So would you girls mind stepping off my motorcycle

Romantica (French Version)
Romantica
Composer(s): Dino Verde; Roger Berthier; Fernand Bonifay
Performer(s): Dalida
and multiple other artists
Tu es étrange, tu n'en laisse rien paraître
Et nul ne peut te connaître
Tu es étrange, jamais tes yeux ne s'enflamment
Mais j'ai deviner ton âme
Tu es romantica, romantique et Bohème
Tu t'en défend parfois
Mais moi je sais, je sais tout ca
Tu es romantica voilà pourquoi je t'aime
Tes yeux sont malheureux
Quand notre ciel paraît moins bleu
Le rire d'un enfant, une fleur au printemps
Le chant d'un feu de bois
Au fond tu n'aimes que ca
Et quand tu viens vers moi
Tu sais rester toi même
De peur qu'on rit tout bas
Tu n'aimes pas montrer tes joies
Car tu veux les garder pour toi
Tu es romantica c'est pour ça que je t'aime
Tu as fait de ma vie un univers de poésie
Es ce là ton secret, mais je le connais
Tout mes rêves sont fait à ton image c'est vrai
Et lorsque je te vois romantique et bohème
Je pense qu'ici bas tous mon bonheur je te le dois
Tu es romantica, tu es romantica, tu es romantica
Pour moi

Romancing The Stone
Romancing The Stone
Composer(s): Eddy Grant
Performer(s): Eddy Grant
(Chorus)
I'm romancing the stone
never leaving your poor heart alone
Every night and every day gonna love the hurtin' away
I'm romancing the stone, never leaving your poor heart alone
Every night and every day gonna love the hurtin' away
Tonight, tonight I'm falling where the peaceful waters flow
Where the unicorn's the last one at the water hole
I have found a love so precious, like an emerald so bold
It's a firelight escaping from the jeweller's hold
(Chorus)
Oh and in the heat of rapture when I feel the cold winds blow
Through the broken glass, I'll see at last the sweet desire in you
I will climb up on my pulpit and I'll preach a sermon, you
On the mountain roads, in Harlem, feel my jeweller's hold
(Chorus)

Though time passes by, we will never forget

Composer(s): J.C. Fogerty
First release by: Creedence Clearwater Revival - 1969
Traffic in the city turns my head around
No, no, no, no, no
Backed up on the freeway, backed up in the church
Ev'rywhere you look there's a frown, frown
Com, commotion
Git, git, git, gone
Com, commotion
Git, git, git, gone
People keep atalkin', they don't say a word
Jaw, jaw, jaw, jaw, jaw
Talk up in the White House, talk up to your door
So much goin' on I just can't hear
Com, commotion
Git, git, git, gone
Com, commotion
Git, git, git, gone
Hurryin' to get there so you save some time
Run, run, run, run, run
Rushin' to the treadmill, rushin' to get home
Worry 'bout the time you save, save
Com, commotion
Git, git, git, gone
Com, commotion
Git, git, git, gone

Though it's forbidden for my arms to hold you
And though it's forbidden, I tease myself towards you
That I hold you secretly each time we meet
In these forbidden games that I play
Though it's forbidden in dim quiet places
To capture the rainbows my aching heart chases
My bitter sweet esctasy, come to me
In these forbidden games that I play
Everyone knows you belong to another
Spinning your magic for him and no other
Still, I'll be content to be part of this fantasy
Part of this game that I play
Though it's forbidden and you love him now
I'll keep my love hidden and love you forever
Through countless eternity you will be mine
In these forbidden games that I play

The Winds Of Heaven
Composer(s): Fran Landesman - Bob Dorough
Performer(s): The 5th Dimension
If the winds of heaven would only blow the door shut
I could keep you here for a little while
If the winds of heaven would only blow the light out
In the friendly dark, you'd begin to smile
If the winds of heaven would only blow you my way
I would hold you close for a little while
If the winds of heaven would only blow the roof off
You and I would fly half a million miles to a happy star
On the winds of heaven

I wanna thank you this evening, honey

but that's when you turned around
and looked me in my eyes
and you let me know
you said, and you said it softly
I didn't have to worry about being a common man, you said
David, you don't have to worry about rising to the top
you said, you said, you said I didn't have to swear by my blood
that oh baby, that one day your heartache would stop
then you put your arms around me, and you said
you never, never, never, never cared
if I never changed one single grain of sand
you said, I love you, baby (whoah)
I love you, for just being a common man
all my gratitude, just keep on growing
yeah, for recognizing me
I thank ya baby, yeah
for respecting me, yeah
I wanna thank ya, baby
for everytime we meet, oh
I thank ya, baby, oh

Performer(s): Gladys Swarthout
and multiple other artists
Romance in the dark with you
All at once I knew
Darlin' love was near
I thrill to my finger tips
I could feel your lips
Darlin' oh so near
The music was so entrancing
The lights all began to fade
I said to myself keep dancing
But only my heart obeyed
A flame grew from just a spark
When I found romance in the dark with you
The music was so entrancing
The lights all began to fade
I said to myself keep dancing
But only my heart obeyed
A flame grew from just a spark
When I found romance in the dark with you

The Wind That Shakes The Corn
The Wind That Shakes The Corn
Performer(s): The Irish Rovers
I sat within the valley green I sat with my true love
My sad heart had to choose between Old Ireland and my love
I looked at her and then I thought how Ireland was torn
While soft the wind blew down the glen and shook the golden corn
t'was hard the woeful words to bring to break the ties that bound
But harder still to bear the shame of English chains around
And so I said, the mountain glen I'll seek in early morn
And join the brave united men while soft winds shook the corn
While sad I kissed away her tears my fond arms round her clung
A British shot burst in our ears from out of the wild woods round
One bullet pierced my true love's side a rose pierced by a thorn
And in my arms in blood she died while soft winds shook the corn
So blood for blood without remorse I've taken in the glen
I placed my true love's clayful corpse I joined true Irish men
But around her grave I wander drear sometimes in early morn
And with breaking heart sometimes I hear the wind that shakes the corn

Committed To Parkview
Committed To Parkview
Composer(s): Johnny Cash
First recording/First release by: Johnny Cash and The Tennessee Three - 1975/1976
There's a man across the hall who sits staring at the floor
He thinks he's Hank Williams hear him singing through the door
There's a girl in 203,who stops by to visit me
And she talks about her songs and the star that she should be
There are lots of special people staying in or passing through
And for one thing or another,committed to Parkview
There's a girl in 307,coming down on thorazine
And a superstar's ex-drummer trying to kick benzedrine
There's a boy just below me who's the son of some well-known
He was brought in by his mother 'cause his daddy's always gone
There's a bum from down on Broadway and a few quite well to dues
Who have withdrawn from the rat race and committed to Parkview
There's a girl who cries above me,loud enough to wake the dead
They don't know what she has taken that has scrambled up her head
There's a writer and a singer who has tried and tried and tried
They just brought him in this morning an attempted suicide
There are those that never made it,those that did but now are through
Some came of their own good chosing,some committed to Parkview
They wake us about 6:30,just before the morning meal
While they're taking blood pressure,they ask us how we feel
And I always say fantastic there ain't nothing wrong with me
And then they give me my injection and i go right back to sleep
The days are kind of foggy and the nights are dreamy too
But they're taking good care of me, committed to Parkview

Romance Del Enamorado Y Muerte
Romance Del Enamorado Y Muerte
Composer(s): Victor Jara
Performer(s): Victor Jara
Un sueño soñaba anoche
soñito del alma mia
soñaba con mis amores
que en mis brazos los tenia
Vi entrar señora muy blanca
muy mas que la nieve fria
por donde has entrado amor
como has entrado a mi vida
Las puertas estan cerradas
ventanas y celosias
no soy el amor amante
soy la muerte Dios me envia
Ay muerte tan rigorosa
dejame vivir un dia
un dia no puede ser
una hora tienes de vida
Muy de prisa se cansaba
mas de prisa se vestia
ya se va para la calle
en donde su amor vivia
Abreme la puerta blanca
abreme la puerta niña
como te podre yo abrir
si la ocasion no es venida
Mi padre no fue a palacio
mi madre no esta dormida
si no me abres esta noche
ya no me abriras querida
La muerte me anda buscando
junto a ti vida seria
vete bajo mi ventana
donde labraba y cocia
Te echare cordon de seda
para que subas arriba
y si el hilo no alcanzare
mis trenzas añadiria
Se rompio el cordon de seda
la muerte que ahi venia
vamos el enamorado
que la hora ya es cumplida

The Wind
The Wind
Composer(s): Cat Stevens
First release by: Cat Stevens - 1971
Covered by multiple other artists
I listen to the wind, to the wind of my soul
Where I end up, well, I think only God really knows
I swam across the setting sun, but never, never, never, never
I never wanted water once, no never, never, never
I listen to my words, but they fall far below
I let my music take me where my heart wants to go
I swam across the devil's lake, but never, never, never, never
I'll never make the same mistake, no never, never, never
Hear me now, that's me now
Hear me now, watch me
Hear me now, that's me now
Hear me now, watch me
What me say now, tell me to the wind
Turn on down the corner, get my butt movin'
Open your heart to the invitation
And it's like this, how we begun
I listen to the wind, to the wind of my soul
Where I end up, well, I think only God really knows
I swam across the devil's lake, but never, never, never, never
I'll never make the same mistake, no never, never, never
One time, tell me now
Just how we begin
Tell me now, back and back out in the wind
It's like this, that's how we begin
It's like that now, back up in the wind
It's like this, that's how we begin
It's like that now, back up in the wind
It's like this, that's how we begin
Tell me now, back and back out in the wind
Listen to it
Listen to the wind
Listen to it
Listen to the wind
(repeat)...

Romance De Valentia
Romance De Valentia
Composer(s): Quintero; León; Quiroga
Performer(s): Raphael
Era mu poco en la vida
Tan poco, que nada era
Por no tener, no tenia
Ni madre que lo quisiera
Era un pobre aficionao
Que buscaba la ocasion
De dejar en un cerrao
Frente a un toro, el corazon
Romance de valentia
Escrito con luna blanca
Y gracia de andalucia
En campos de salamanca
Embiste, toro bonito
Embiste, por caridad
Morir se me importa un pito
Pues nadie me iba a llorar
Aqui no hay plaza, ni hombre
Ni traje tabaco y oro
Aqui hay un niño, muy hombre
Que esta delante de un toro
En matarme no repares
Te concedo hasta el perdon
Y ya que no tengo madre
La macarena me ampare
Si me cuelgas de un piton
Todas las noches saltaba
Sin miedo, la talanquera
Y a cara o cruz se jugaba
Al toro, la vida entera
Quiza fuera colorao
El bure que lo embistio
Y mordiendo su costao
Malherido lo dejo
Romance de valentia
Teñido de luna blanca
Y sangre de andalucia
En campos de salamanca
Adios, plaza de sevilla
Ya nunca me habras de ver
Pisar tu arena amarilla
¡Con tanto que los soñe!
Adios, capote de seda
Que fuiste mi compañero
Morir en esta pelea
Es cosa de buen torero
Ya, vestido de alamares
No ha de verme la aficion
Y como no tengo madre
La macarena me ampare
Y me de su bendicion
Y alli quedo ante la fiera
Ninguno le vio caer
Nadie rezo, tan siquiera
Ni un padre nuestro por el
Por el ninguna serrana
Lloro de luto vestida
Por el ninguna campana
Doblo amaneciendo el dia
Pero, en cambio, entre azucenas
Y entre velas enrizas
En san gil, la macarena
Si que lloraba de pena
Por la muerte del chaval
