Jag Skall Inte Fälla Nagra Tarar


Jag Skall Inte Fälla Nagra Tarar
English Title: I Won't Shed Any Tears
Composer(s): Agnetha Fältskog
Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog



Jag skall inte fälla några tårar när du går
Inte heller be dig stanna kvar
Jag ska nog bli kär igen
Det finns så många andra män
Tack ändå för allt som var

Du behöver inte alls bekymra dej för mej
Ensamheten känner jag så väl
Sluta att förklara dej, ja
Snälla du bespara mej
Alla dina dumma skäl

Säkert blir det tomt efter dej
Får nog ganska svårt att vänja mej
Sånt du glömde kvar
Saker som man spar
Dom minner om allt det som var

Kanske gör jag fel som inte visar hur det känns
Jag är säkert stoltare än du
Vill så gärna krama dej
Men det är nåt som hindrar mej
Varför ska jag tveka nu.

Säkert blir det tomt efter dej
Får nog ganska svårt att vänja mej
Sånt du glömde kvar
Saker som man spar
Dom minner om allt det som var

Jag skall inte fälla några tårar när du går
Inte heller be dig stanna kvar
Jag ska nog bli kär igen
Det finns så många andra män
Tack ändå för allt som var

They Asked About You


They Asked About You
Composer(s): Freddy Weller - Kim Nash - Bill Nash
Performer(s): Reba McEntire



Saturday night
Out on the town
Feeling so sure of myself
Meeting some friends
Sharing some laughs
Not thinking of anything else
Then one of them leaned over my shoulder
And all at once the party was over

They asked about you
And suddenly it all came back to me
Then all the walls around my heart
Came crashing at my feet
When they asked about you
(Oh) They asked about you
I was doing OK
Until they asked about you

How could they know
What it would do
All they did was mention your name
And just like that
The hurting was back
That's when I knew nothing had changed
What a time for old memories to find me
Just when I thought I'd put 'em behind me

They asked about you
And suddenly it all came back to me
Then all the walls around my heart
Came crashing at my feet
When they asked about you
(Oh) They asked about you
I was doing OK
Until they asked about you

Could You Be Loved


Could You Be Loved
Composer(s): Bob Marley
First release by: Bob Marley - 1980
Covered by multiple other artists



Could you be loved and be loved
Could you be loved and be loved

Don't let them fool you
Or even try to school you, oh! no
We've got a mind of our own
So go to hell if what you're thinking
Is not right
Love would never leave us alone
In the darkness there must come out to light

Could you be loved and be loved
Could you be loved and be loved

The road of life is rocky
And you may stumble too
So while you point your fingers
Someone else is judging you
Love you brotherman

Could you be, could you be, could you be loved
Could you be, could you be loved

Don't let them change you
Or even rearrange you, oh! no
We've got a life to live
They say only, only
Only the fittest of the fittest shall survive
Stay alive

Could you be loved and be loved
Could you be loved and be loved

You ain't gonna miss your water
Until your well runs dry
No matter how you treat him
The man will never be satisfied

Could you be, could you be, could you be loved
Could you be, could you be loved

Say something, say something
Say something
Reggae, reggae
Say something
Rockers, rockers
Say something could you be loved

Si supieras

tan fácil de encontrar

Déjame amarte, ven, ven
puede ser genial
tengo tantos besos
sin estrenar

Déjame amarte, ya, ya
quiero conocer
el idioma que habla
tu piel

No me dejes
fuera de tu vida
como simple amiga, nada más

Esos labios
yo sé que son sabios
necesito que me enseñen más

Déjame amarte, ven, ven
puede ser genial
tengo tantos besos
sin estrenar

Could This Be Magic?


Could This Be Magic?
Composer(s): Blandon; Johnson
Performer(s): The Dubs



Could this be magic
My dear
My heart's all aglow
Could this be magic
Loving you so
Could this be magic
My dear
Having your love
My prayers were answered
So far from above.
I thought it would be
Just a memory
To linger my heart in pain
But too much pride
I opened up my eyes
And I'm with you dear once again
Could this be magic
My dear
Having your love
If this is magic
Then magic is mine
Could this be magic
Then magic is mine

Jag Skall Fånga en Ängel


Jag Skall Fånga en Ängel
Composer(s): Ted Gärdestad; Kenneth Gärdestad
Performer(s): Ted Gärdestad



Om jag går ut och dansar på ett diskotek
vet jag att jag bara chansar men jag tar det på lek
om jag bara försöker att se manlig ut
kan jag hitta det jag söker innan kvällen tar slut

Jag ska fånga en ängel, fånga en ängel
ängel från sjunde himlen
vill du vara min ängel vara min ängel
ängel från sjunde himlen...

Om du ger mig ditt nummer ska jag ringa dig
kanske missar du din slummer om du sover hos mig

Refr. Jag ska fånga en....

Ställer du upp om du blir bjuden
även om ditt samvete kommer i kläm
men du är väl inte förbjuden
att följa med hem - när ska vi gå hem?
Tycker du det är viktigt att du känner mig
kan vi börja det försiktigt, du kan lita på mig

Jag ska vara en ängel, vara en ängel
ängel från sjunde himlen
vill du vara min ängel, vara min ängel
ängel från sjunde himlen....

They All Laughed


They All Laughed
((Dutch Version: Iedereen Moest Lachen (Robert Long) - 1997))
Composer(s): George Gershwin - Ira Gershwin
First performance by: Fred Astaire & Ginger Rogers - 1937
Covered by multiple other artists



The odds were a hundred to one against me
The world thought the heights were too high to climb
But people from Missouri never incensed me
Oh, I wasn't a bit concerned
For from history I had learned
How many, many times the worm had turned
They all laughed at Christopher Columbus
When he said the world was round
They all laughed when Edison recorded sound
They all laughed at Wilbur and his brother
When they said that man could fly
They told Marconi wireless was a phoney
It's the same old try
They laughed at me, wanting you
Said I was reaching for the moon
But oh, you came through
Now they'll have to change their tune
They all said we never would be happy
Darling, let's take a bow
But ho, ho, ho
Who's got the last laugh now?

Oh baby it’s been so long
I’ve waited so long
And now that I have you
I want you to come
Come come come into my arms
Oh baby I need you I need you
Come come come into my arms again

Spirits move me
Every time I’m near you
Whirling like a cyclone in my mind
Oh sweet peter, angel of my lifetime
Answer to all answers I can find

Baby, I love you, come, come
Come into my arms
Let me know the wonder of all of you
Baby, I want you now, now
Now, and hold on fast
Could this be the magic at last?

Oh hold on to me
Don’t let go
Come into my life
Don’t let go
Oh...

Baby, take me high upon a hillside
High up where the stallion meets the sun
I could love you, build my world around you
Never leave you till my life is done

Baby, I love you, come, come
Come into my arms
Let me know the wonder of all of you
And baby, I want you now, now
Oh now, oh now, and hold on fast
Could this be the magic at last?
Baby, I want you, come, come
Could this be the magic at last?

Could it be magic?
Come, c’mon, c’mon
Come oh oh come into my arms
Oh, let me know the wonder
Of all of you, all of you
Baby, I want you now, now
Oh now, oh now and hold on fast
Oh could this be the magic at last?

Come, c’mon, c’mon
Come oh oh come into my arms
Oh, let me know the wonder of all of you
Baby, I want you now, now, oh now
Oh now and hold on fast
Oh, could this be the magic at last?
Could it be the magic?

Jag Har Förlorat Dej


Jag Har Förlorat Dej
English Title: I Have Lost You
Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog



Regnet faller ner
Himlen är nu grå
Allting känns så fel
Och jag knackar på din dörr
Du är inte där

Säg vart har du gått
Vad är det som sker?
Älsking har du glömt
Vi skulle ju ses idag

Nu står jag här
Ensam i det kalla regnet
Vad ska jag göra nu
När du har svikit mig?

Säg ska jag vända hem
Och försöka glömma allt som var?
Jag har förlorat dig
Och det känns så svårt

Tittar mig omkring
När jag kommer hem
Tar sen fram ditt kort
Och jag river det itu
Du är inte min

Tårarna som trängs
Ensamheten känns
Du har säkert glömt
Att jag finns till

Jag vet en dag
Kommer du att känna saknad
Vad ska jag göra då
Ska jag förlåta dig?

Jag ser min morgondag
Fylld av tomhet efter nåt som var
Jag har förlorat dig
Och det känns svårt

They All Fall In Love


They All Fall In Love
Composer(s): Cole Porter
Performer(s): Gertrude Lawrence



Each year, when spring, quite uninvited
Gives a garden party to the world united
Ev'ryone gets so excited
They don't know what they're thinking of
Folks who've spent the winter freezin'
Whiff the balmy breeze and simply lose their reason
They know it's the open season
For falling in love

The young fall, the old fall
The red-hot mammas and the cold fall
From the lily white to the black as night
They all fall in love

The fools fall, the wise fall
The wets, the sprinkled and the drys fall
From the men who drink to the men who wink
They all fall in love

You may believe your broker is very mediocre
At playing with your stocks and bonds
At business he may be a blunder
Yet he's a perfect wonder when he plays with the blondes

Old maids who object fall
Old men you never would suspect fall
Even babies who can hardly crawl, fall
'Cause they all fall in love

The wags fall, the boobs fall
The gold-brick sellers and the rubes fall
From the underbred to the overfed
They all fall in love

The good very oft fall
The hard-shelled Baptists and the soft fall
Just to prove they believe in the fall of Eve
They all fall in love

The solemn undertaker is shyer than a Quaker
As long as he is filling graves
But let him meet a missus who hasn't prejudices
And he misbehaves

The angels on high fall
And men like Lindbergh who can fly, fall
Even boxers much too pure to fall, fall
'Cause they all fall in love

The pet parakeets fall
The English sparrows in the streets fall
From the doves of peace to the wildest geese
They all fall in love

Small bookworms on the shelves fall
Amoebas even for themselves fall
From the early worms to the latest germs
They all fall in love

When strolling in a thicket, if you pick up a cricket
And put him in a shady tree
You'll find a little later that he's become the pater
Of a family

The pigs fall, the sows fall
The bull walks in and all the cows fall
Even mules that never fall at all, fall
'Cause they all fall in love

Versions In Other Languages: 1975 - Le Temps Qui Court (Alain Chamfort) 1992 - Puede Ser Genial (Pandora)



Vreemd verlangen
Brengt de dromers samen
Rond de rode lichten in de nacht

Dansend meisje
Liefde is herkennen
Luister naar die zoete stille kracht

Baby, kom bij me
Kom, kom
Als de eerste vrouw
Laat je lijf vertellen hoe mooi je bent

Baby ik wil je
Nou, o nou
Helemaal van jou
Breng me waar geluk geen einde kent

Onze schaduw
Smelt weg in het donker
Zoekend naar een plaats voor jou en mij

Diep verborgen
Samen met de stroom mee
Oog in oog terwijl ik met je vrij

Baby, kom bij me
Kom, o kom
Als de eerste vrouw
Laat je lijf vertellen hoe mooi je bent

Baby ik wil je
Nou, o nou
Helemaal van jou
Breng me waar geluk geen einde kent...

Jag Hade En Gång En Båt


Jag Hade En Gång En Båt
Performer(s): Cornelis Wreeswijk



Jag hade en gång en båt
med segel och ruff och köl
men det var för länge sen
så länge sen
Svara mig du, var är den nu?
Jag bara undrar, var är den nu?

Jag hade en gång en dröm
jag trodde att den var sann
Så väcktes jag ur min sömn
och drömmen försvann
Svara mig du, var är den nu?
Jag bara undrar, var är den nu?

Det fanns en gång en soldat
han kysste sin mor farväl
Han sa till sin flicka: Du jag kommer igen
Svara mig du, var är han nu?
Jag bara undrar, var är han nu?

Det fanns en gång en stad
i parken där lekte barn
Så släppte man ner en bomb
och staden försvann
Svara mig du, var är den nu?
Jag bara undrar, var är den nu?

Jag hade en gång en båt
Jag drömde en dröm en gång
men det var för länge sen
så länge sen
Svara mig du, var är dom nu?
Jag bara undrar, var är dom nu?

These Strange Times


These Strange Times
Composer(s): Mick Fleetwood - Ray Kennedy
Performer(s): Fleetwood Mac



These strange times I think of a friend
They said was a man of the world
When all the time he was in a fight
Between the dark and the light
Yes I too, my friend, find the devil
Trying to make me do things I don't want to do
Now I find myself crying out
God is nowhere, God is nowhere

These strange times I look in my heart
And see the dark not the light
And how I'm sad and wished I was in love
And look to the sky and cry out
God is nowhere, God is nowhere
And this is hell
Being caught between the dark and the light
Daddy, daddy, hold on
God is now here, God is now here

These strange times I too have dreams
Things that make me wonder
If to walk a thin line is like dying alone
And I'm trying to find my way home
To where God is now here and the dark is now light
Yes I'm crying out, God is now here
God is now here and that was hell
Being caught between the dark and the light
Between the dark and the light

These strange times I look in my heart
And how I'm sad and wished I was in love
And I look to the sky and cry out
God is now here, God is now here
God is now here, God is now here
My friend I do wish that I was in love
I wished I was in love
I love you, I love you

Le Temps Qui Court


Le Temps Qui Court ((Adapted from: Could It Be Magic (Barry Manilow) - 1972)) Composer(s): Fryderyk Chopin - Adrienne Anderson - Barry Manilow - Jean-Michel Rivat Performer(s): Alain Chamfort - 1975

Versions In Other Languages: 1986 - Ontmoeting (Rob de Nijs) 1992 - Puede Ser Genial (Pandora)



Et finalement, après quelques années
Les hommes ont remplacé tes poupées
Et les glaïeuls posés dans ta chambre
Remplacent aujourd'hui les fleurs des champs

Et c'est le temps qui court, court
Qui nous rend sérieux
La vie nous a rendu plus orgueilleux
Parce que le temps qui court, court
Change les plaisirs
Et que le manque d'amour nous fait vieillir

À l'heure qu'il est, mes voitures de plastique
Sont devenues vraies depuis longtemps
Et finalement, les affaires et l'argent
Ont remplacé mes jouets d'avant

Et c'est le temps qui court, court
Qui nous rend sérieux
La vie nous a rendu plus orgueilleux
Parce que le temps qui court, court
Change les plaisirs
Et que le manque d'amour nous fait vieillir

Parce que le temps qui court, court, oh court
Change les plaisirs
Et que le manque d'amour nous fait vieillir

Et toujours le temps qui court, qui court, oh le temps
Change les plaisirs
Et que le manque d'amour nous a fait vieillir
Et que le manque d'amour nous a fait vieillir

Jag Blir Galen När Jag Tänker På Dej


Jag Blir Galen När Jag Tänker På Dej
English Title: Goin' Out Of My Head
Composer(s): Stig Anderson
Performer(s): Anni-Frid Lyngstad



Jag blir galen när jag tänker på dej
Och det är som något fattades mej
Mer, ju mer jag dig ser
Så känns det, så bränns det
Kan vakna och sakna
Det lugn som din närhet alltid ger

Jag blir galen när jag tänker på dej
Du har blivit som ett gift inom mej
varje da', vill jag ha
En dos av din ömhet
Din värme, din närhet
För att jag ska känna allt är bra

Och jag tänker på dej
Natt och dag
Längtar till dej
Natt och dag
ia, du har gått i mitt blod
Det som va' en bäck blev en flod
Du har öppnat en sluss
upptänt en våg
Slagit an en ton, väckt en passion
som slumrande låg

Jag blir...
och jag...

Jag blir galen...

These Foolish Things (Remind Me Of You)


These Foolish Things (Remind Me Of You)
Composer(s): Holt Marvell - Jack Strachey - Harry Link
First recording by: Leslie Hutchinson - 1936
Covered by multiple other artists



Oh, will you never let me be
Oh, will you never set me free
The ties that bound us are still around us
There's no escape that I can see
And still those little things remain
That bring me happiness or pain...

A cigarette that bears a lipsticks traces
An airline ticket to romantic places
And still my heart has wings
These foolish things remind me of you

A tinkling piano in the next apartment
Those stumbling words that told you what my heart meant
A fairground's painted swings
These foolish things remind me of you

You came, you saw
You conquered me
When you did that to me
I somehow knew that this had to be

The winds of March that make my heart a dancer
A telephone that rings but who's to answer
Oh, how the ghost of you clings
These foolish things remind me of you

Gardenia perfume lingering on a pillow
Wild strawberries only seven francs a kilo
And still my heart has wings
These foolish things remind me of you

I know that this
Was bound to be
These things have haunted me
For you've entirely enchanted me

The sigh of midnight trains in empty stations
Silk stockings thrown aside and sin-vitations
Oh, how the ghost of you clings
These foolish things remind me of you

The smile of Garbo and the scent of roses
The waiters whistling as the last bar closes
The song that Crosby sings
These foolish things remind me of you

How strange, how sweet
To find you still
These things are dear to me
That seem to bring you so near to me

The scent of smoking leaves, the wail of steamers
Two lovers on the street who walk like dreamers
Oh, how the ghost of you clings
These foolish things remind me of you
Just you

Since I've met you, I've begun to feel so strange
Every time I speak your name, that's funny
You say that you are so helpless too
That you don't know what to do-ooh

When you up and take your love away
Say you feel the same way too, and I wonder what
It is I feel for you-ooh

Could it be I'm falling in love, woo-hoo
Could it be I'm falling in love, with you, with you, with you-oo

I don't need all those things, that used to bring me joy
You made me such a happy boy
And honey, you'll always be the only one for me
Meeting you was my destiny-ee

You can be sure I will never let you down
When you need me I'll be around
And darling you'll always be, the only one for me
Heaven made you 'specially-ee

Could it be I'm falling in love, with you baby
Could it be I'm falling in love, woo-hoo
Could it be I'm falling in love, with you, with you, with you-oo

And darling you'll always be, the only one for me
Heaven made you 'specially-ee

Could it be I'm falling in love, with you baby
Could it be I'm falling in love, I want to know now baby
Could it be I'm falling in love, with you, with you, with you-oo

Could it be I'm falling in love
Could it be I'm falling in love
Could it be I'm falling in love
Could it be I'm falling in love
Could it be I'm falling in love
Could it be I'm falling in love
Could it be I'm falling in love

Performer(s): Jerry Jeff Walker



Well, it won't be but a week or two
You'll be out lovin' someone new
It must have happened a hundred times before
And I can see you been spreadin' yourself thin too
It's a lonely stage we been goin' through
Don't get up, I can find my own way to the door

Chorus:
Well, I can see you are an angel
whose wings just won't unfold
Tune up your harp; polish your old halo
Well the only kind of man that you ever wanted
is one that you knew you'd never hold very long
You're sittin' there cryin' like I'm the first one to go
