Rosemary (Kay Kyser)


Rosemary
Composer(s): Jimmie Dodd; John Jacob Loeb
Performer(s): Kay Kyser



Every time I walk, I walk with Rosemary
Rosemary mine (Rosemary mine)
I find I lose all track of time when I'm with Rosemary
With Rosemary, it's always June in January

Every one can tell we love each other
Her dad think it's swell and winks at her kid brother
Mother knows that I'll propose to Rosemary
(He's gonna propose to his Rosemary mine)

Every one can tell they love each other (each other)
(Her dad think it's swell and winks at her kid brother)
Mother knows that I'll propose to Rosemary
Rosemary mine (lovely Rosemary, Rosemary mine)

Theme For A Dream


Theme For A Dream
Composer(s): Earl Shuman - Mort Garson
First recording/First release by: Cliff Richard and The Shadows - 1961



You are my theme for a dream
Yes you are, a rare and lovely theme
(You're a theme for a dream)
The dreams I dream day and night
That your arms are holding me so tight
(You're a theme for a dream)

When I dream I kiss you (kiss you)
Music fills with starlight (starlight)
Every time I touch you (when I touch you)
Each and every time a chime rings out I love you
Only you for ever more

'Cause you're my theme for a dream
Yes you are a rare and lovely theme
(You're my theme for a dream)
So, angel please say that you love me too
And make my dreams come true dream
(you're my theme for a dream)

When I dream I kiss you (kiss you)
Music fills with starlight (starlight)
Every time I touch you (when I touch you)
Each and every time a chime rings out I love you
Only you for ever more

'Cause you're my theme for a dream
Yes you are a rare and lovely theme
(You're my theme for a dream)
So, angel please say that you love me too
And make my dreams come true dream

And make my dreams come true
Please make my dreams come true

Partir Avec Toi


Partir Avec Toi
((Adapted from: Con Te Partirò (Andrea Bocelli) - 1995)) ((English Versions: Time To Say Goodbye (Sarah Brightman & Andrea Bocelli) - 1996; I Will Go With You (Donna Summer) - 1999)) Composer(s): Lucio Quarantotto - Francesco Sartori Performer(s): Jeane Manson & Yvhann Cevic - 1998



Quand la solitude me fait mal
Mes amis me noient de paroles
Ils parlent d'habitude, disent "C'est normal"
Mais que tout ça, un jour, s'envole
Je sais! Oui, je sais! Nous comment, comment?
Sous mes fenêtres
La vie passe mais n'efface, non, rien de nous deux
Tous ces "peut-être"
D'un cœur en feu vers les cieux guident mes pas

Partir avec toi, attends-moi... où que tu sois
Là-haut, si là-haut est l'endroit où le bon Dieu t'envoie
Oui! Partir avec toi, par la force d'aimer, te retrouver
Non, non, rien n'existe sans nous
Et nous, c'est toi, c'est tout

J'ai tout essayé, rien ne console!
Rien vraiment ne retient mes larmes
Je n'ai qu'une idée, une idée folle
C'est vrai! Je veux m'en aller là ou tu es
Ce soir ou demain je te promets, promets, promets, promets

Partir avec toi, attends-moi... où que tu sois
Là-haut, si là-haut est l'endroit où le bon Dieu t'envoie
Oui! Partir avec toi, par la force d'aimer, te retrouver
Non, non, rien n'existe sans nous
Et nous, c'est toi, c'est tout

Oui, partir avec toi, en un dernier sommeil, je te suivrai
Au bout de mes rêves, de ma vie, attends-moi, je te suis

Oui, partir avec toi
Avec toi

Rose, Rose, I Love You


Rose, Rose, I Love You (May Kway O May Kway)
Original Chinese Title: Meigui Meigui Wo Ai Ni
Composer(s): Wilfrid Thomas; Chris Langdon
Performer(s): Frankie Laine;
and various other artists



Rose, Rose I love you with an aching heart
What is your future?, now we have to part
Standing on the jetty as the steamer moves away
Flower of Malaya, I cannot stay

Make way, oh, make way for my Eastern Rose
Men crowd in dozens everywhere she goes
In her rickshaw on the street or in a cabaret
"Please make way for Rose" you can hear them say

All my life I shall remember
Oriental music and you in my arms
Perfumed flowers in your tresses
Lotus-scented breezes and swaying palms

Rose, Rose I love you with your almond eyes
Fragrant and slender 'neath tropical skies
I must cross the seas again and never see you more
'way back to my home on a distant shore

(All my life I shall remember)
(Oriental music and you in my arms)
(Perfumed flowers in your tresses)
(Lotus-scented breezes and swaying palms)

Rose, Rose I leave you, my ship is in the bay
Kiss me farewell now, there's nothin' to say
East is East and West is West, our worlds are far apart
I must leave you now but I leave my heart

Rose, Rose I love you with an aching heart
What is your future?, now we have to part
Standing on the jetty as the steamer moves away
Flower of Malaya, I cannot stay

(Rose, Rose I love you, I cannot stay)

Con Nada Me Pagas


Con Nada Me Pagas
Performer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez



Con la mitad del caiño
que yo te tengo
podrán hacerte feliz
con la mitad de los besos
que yo te daba
la vida entera podrías vivir

Con que te quieran tantito
nomás tantito
podrás salvar el dolor
de no quedarte en el mundo
con mucha pena
con mucha angustia y pidiendo amor

Pero sé que tú vas a pagar lo que debes
y me sales debiendo tanto
que con todas las cosas que tienes
no cubres la deuda que me está matando

Con la mitad de mi vida
mi media copa, aquí me vengo a tomar
por esos años queridos
cuando en tus brazos
me fui enseñando a sufrir y a amar

Porque a pesar de tus cosas
que nunca sepas
lo que es un cuelo sin sol
ya que a pesar de tu infamia
a Dios le pido, te falte todo
y te sobre amor

Pero sé que tú vas a pagar lo que debes
y me sales debiendo tanto
que con todas las cosas que tienes
no cubres la deuda que me está matando

Rose Tint My World


Rose Tint My World
Composer(s): Richard O'Brien
Performer(s): Tim Curry;
and various other artists



Columbia:
It was great when it all began
I was a regular Frankie fan
But it was over when he had the plan
To start working on a muscle man
Now the only thing that gives me hope
Is my love of a certain dope
Rose tints my world
Keeps me safe from my trouble and pain

Rocky Horror:
I'm just seven hours old
Truly beautiful to behold
And somebody should be told
My libido hasn't been controlled
Now the only thing I've come to trust
Is an orgasmic rush of lust
Rose tints my world
And keeps me safe from my trouble and pain

Brad:
It's beyond me
Help me, Mommy
I'll be good, you'll see
Take this dream away
What this, let's see
I feel sexy
What's come over me?
Wooh! Here it comes again

Janet:
I feel released
Bad times deceased
My confidence has increased
Reality is here
The game has been disbanded
My mind has been expanded
It's a gas that Frankie's landed
His lust is so sincere

Con Mis Propias Manos


Con Mis Propias Manos Composer(s): Antonio Herrera Valdez Performer(s): Javier Solís and multiple other artists



Se fue al clarear el alba
por el camino bañada en llanto
y yo que la quiero tanto
lleno de orgullo la vi partir

Así con mis propias manos
cavé la tumba del alma mía
no más por ser tan cobarde
por no decirle que la quería

No más por ser tan cobarde
por no decirle que la quería

Me vi en sus negros ojos
y al despedirse sentí la muerte
Tal vez ya cambió su suerte
la mala suerte que yo le di

Así, con mis propias manos
cavé la tumba del alma mía
no más, por ser tan cobarde
por no decirle que la quería

No más por ser tan cobarde
por no decirle que la quería

Rose Rosse


Rose Rosse
Composer(s): Enrico Polito; G. Bigazzi
Performer(s): Massimo Ranieri;
Enrico Musiani; Emilio Pericoli; Stefano



Rose rosse per te
ho comprato stasera
e il tuo cuore lo sa
cosa voglio da te

D'amore non si muore
e non mi so spiegare
perche' muoio per te
da quando ti ho lasciato
sarà perché ho sbagliato
ma io vivo di te
e ormai non c'e' piu' strada
che non mi porti indietro
amore sai perché
nel cuore del mio cuore
non ho altro che te

Forse in amore le rose
non si usano più
ma questi fiori sapranno
parlarti di me

Rose rosse per te
ho comprato stasera
e il tuo cuore lo sa
cosa voglio da te

D'amore non si muore
ma chi si sente solo
non sa vivere piu'
con l'ultima speranza
stasera ho comprato
rose rosse per te
la strada dei ricordi
e' sempre la piu' lunga
amore sai perche'
nel cuore del mio cuore
non ho altro che te

Forse in amore le rose
non si usano piu'
ma questi fiori sapranno
parlarti di me

Rose rosse per te
ho comprato stasera
e il tuo cuore lo sa
cosa voglio da te

Thelma Waits For Me In Norway By The Sea


Thelma Waits For Me In Norway By The Sea
Composer(s): Dick B. Brüün



Where the waves dash in spray on the coast
far away In Norway, my home by the sea
A girl, sweet and fair, waits fondly there
Her love is all plighted to me

It has been just a year since my ship left the pier
Cross the water her face still I see
In this new land of home to night I'm alone
Once more I long to be

Where Thelma waits for me, in Norway by the sea
Where the northern lights are beaming, her golden hair is gleaming
Oh, God, keep vigil o'er this girl whom I adore
Who is waiting patiently for me, in Norway by the sea
In Norway by the sea

There's a lure in that land of the north, it is grand
Land of the midnight sun clear
Its great mountain peaks where all nature speaks
A language to me so dear

Tho' there's ice and there's snow
a warm welcoming glow greets you there where-ever you go
And tho' years I may stay in this land far away
Always I'll yearn to be

Where Thelma waits for me, in Norway by the sea
Where the northern lights are beaming, her golden hair is gleaming
Oh, God, keep vigil o'er this girl whom I adore
Who is waiting patiently for me, in Norway by the sea
In Norway by the sea

Con Mi Corazón Te Espero


Con Mi Corazón Te Espero
Composer(s): Humberto Suárez
Performer(s): Javier Solís
and multiple other artists



Tú tan alta yo tan bajo, que alcanzarte a ti no puedo
tú tan rica yo tan pobre, rico solo en sentimientos
Todo un mundo nos separa por dos distintos senderos
pero el amor es más fuerte que el amor del mundo entero
y allá, allá al final del camino con mi corazón te espero

Y tú tendrás un altar y un palacio hecho con besos
y reinarás junto a mí porque el mundo será nuestro

Tú eres luz y yo soy sombra que en la noche se fundieron
tú eres mar y yo soy río que se encuentran aunque lejos
Todo un mundo nos separa por dos distintos senderos
pero el amor es más fuerte que el amor del mundo entero
y allá, allá al final del camino con mi corazón te espero

Todo un mundo nos separa por dos distintos senderos
pero el amor es más fuerte que el amor del mundo entero
y allá, allá al final del camino con mi corazón te espero
porque sé que tú me quieres, porque sé que yo te quiero

Rose Room


Rose Room
Composer(s): Harry Williams; Art Hickman
Performer(s): Harry James;
and various other artists



I want to take you to a little room
A little room where all the roses bloom
I want to lead you into Nature's hall
Where ev'ry year the roses give a ball

They have an orchestra up in the trees
For their musicians are the birds and bees
And they will sing us a song
As we are strolling along

In sunny Roseland, where summer breezes are playing
Where the honey bees are "A-Maying"
There all the roses are swaying
Dancing while the meadow brook flows

The moon when shining is more than ever designing
For `tis ever then I am pining, pining to be sweetly reclining
Somewhere in Roseland
Beside a beautiful rose

The ball is over and the tulips meet
Their little kisses are so short and sweet
The lilies nod to the forgetmenots
When they're departing in their flower pots

But all the roses with their spirits high
Remain to love until they droop and die
And dear, why shouldn't it be
Just so with you and with me

In sunny Roseland, where summer breezes are playing
Where the honey bees are "A-Maying"
There all the roses are swaying
Dancing while the meadow brook flows

The moon when shining is more than ever designing
For `tis ever then I am pining, pining to be sweetly reclining
Somewhere in Roseland
Beside a beautiful rose

Con Mi Borriquillo


Con Mi Borriquillo
Composer(s): F. Barroso - P.J. Flores
Performer(s): Raphael



Yo voy con mi borriquillo caminito de Belén
Entre palmas y palillos, panderetas y almirez
Yo voy con mi borriquillo cargaíto de alegría
Pa' ver al niño Dios y contemplar a María
Tengo un lucerito con los ojos negros
Que lo quiero más que a mi corazón
Y un cometa loco que está majareta
Y a ese no lo quiero, no, no
Porque los luceros tienen mucha gracia
Bailando en los cielos, salero
Y si veo un cometa, me muero, me muero
Yo voy con mi borriquillo con pestiños y alfajor
Y a la mitad del camino, se le ha caído el serón
Pobre borriquillo, de un resbalón se cayó
Y los dulces que llevaba de un soplo se los comió
Tengo un borriquillo con las patas blancas
Que lo quiero más que a mi tía Inés
Y una burra coja que está majareta
Y a esa no la puedo ni ver
Porque el borriquillo tiene mucha gracia
Y, siendo goloso, lo quiero
Que mi borriquillo rebosa salero
Yo voy con mi borriquillo carga’o de chocolate
Llevo mi chocolatero, mi molinillo y mi anafe
Yo voy con mi borriquillo cargado de huevos frescos
Y a la mitad del camino, me lo ha robad0 un gallego
Tengo un borriquillo con las patas blancas
Que lo quiero más que a mi tía Inés
Y una burra coja que está majareta
Y a esa no la puedo ni ver
Porque el borriquillo tiene mucha gracia
Y, siendo goloso, lo quiero
Y quítate del sol, que me ponga moreno

Rose Of An Hour


Rose Of An Hour
Composer(s): Percy Edgar; Harry Scott



I stand in the garden of loveland
Unwanted and all alone
Why did you make me care for you?
Ah, had I only known

The bee to the blushing red rosebud
Still whispers his messages true
But here I wait a faded rose
Ne'er comes a sign from you

The rose of an hour was my love for you
You took it then cast it aside
I must regret and I know you'll forget
Tho' you called me your joy and pride
At first when we met you were good and true
But now we have drifted apart
The rose of an hour was my love for you
And the thorn still remains in my heart

Zoological Gardens


Zoological Gardens
(Traditional)
Performer(s): The Dubliners; Tom Donovan; The Rising Pints



Thunder and lightning is no lark
When Dublin City is in the dark
So if you've any money, go up to the park
And view the Zoological Gardens

We went up there to see the zoo
We saw the lion and the kangaroo
There was he-males and she-males of every hue
Up in the Zoological Gardens

We went out there by Castleknock
Says she to me "Sure, we'll court on the lock"
Then I knew she was one of the rare old stock
From outside the Zoological Gardens

Oh, thunder and lightning is no lark
When Dublin City is in the dark
So if you've any money, go up to the park
And view the Zoological Gardens

We went up there on our honeymoon
Says she to me "If you don't come soon
I'll have to get in with the hairy baboon"
Up in the Zoological Gardens

Says she to me "It's seven o'clock
And time for me to be changin' me frock
For I'd love to see that old cockatoo"
Up in the Zoological Gardens

Says she to me "Me lovely Jack
Sure I'd love a ride on the elephant's back
If you don't get out of that I'll give you such a crack"
Up in the Zoological Gardens

Oh, thunder and lightning is no lark
When Dublin City is in the dark
So if you've any money go up to the park
And view the Zoological Gardens

Y los dos formaremos nuestro nido
Mi alma entera he de darte
Vivo para adorarte
Y el buen Dios velará
Por los dos nuestro amor

The young ones
Darling, we're the young ones
And the young ones
Shouldn't be afraid
To live, love
While the flame is strong

The young ones very long

Tomorrow
Why wait until tomorrow
'cause tomorrow
Sometimes never comes
So, love me
There's a song to be sung

Is to sing it while we're young

Once in every lifetime
Comes a love like this
Oh, I need you,
You need me
Oh, my darling, can't you see...

Young dreams
Should be dreams together
And young hearts
Shouldn't be afraid
And some day
When the years have flown
Darling, then we'll teach
The young ones of our own

Con Las Manos Abiertas
Composer(s): Guijarro; Algueró
Performer(s): Raphael



Yo paso por la vida
Con las manos abiertas
Acariciando el aire
Tocando las estrellas
Llevándome conmigo
Todas las cosas bellas
Todas las cosas dulces
Todas las cosas buenas
Yo paso por la vida
Con las manos abiertas
Por eso al conocerte
He querido retenerte
Y con mis manos
Ofrecerte lo mejor
Un poco de alegría
Una alegre melodía
Y los sueños que latían
En mi corazón
Yo, yo paso por la vida
Con las manos abiertas
Acariciando el aire
Tocando las estrellas
Pero si tú me quieres
Las cerraré con fuerza
Y en mis manos cerradas
Guardaré nuestro amor
