If You Love Me (Let Me Know)
If You Love Me (Let Me Know)
Composer(s): John Rostill
First release by: Olivia Newton-John - 1974
Covered by multiple other artists
You came when I was happy in your sunshine
I grew to love you more each passing day
Before too long I built my world around you
And I prayed you'd love enough of me to stay
If you love me let me know
If you don't then let me go
I can't take another minute
Of a day without you in it
If you love me let it be
If you don't then set me free
Take the chains away
That keep me loving you
The arms that open wide to hold me closer
The hands that run their fingers through my hair
The smile that says "hello, it's good to see you"
Anytime I turn around to find you there
It's this and so much more tht make me love you
What else can I do to make you see
You know you have whatever's mine to give you
But a love affair for one can never be
If you love me let me know
If you don't then let me go
I can't take another minute
Of a day without you in it
If you love me let it be
If you don't then set me free
Take the chains away
That keep me loving you
Take the chains away
That keep me loving you
Loving you

If the sun should tumble from the sky
if the sea should suddenly run dry
If you love me, really love me

If a dream I fear should fall apart
I can still be smiling with my heart
If you love me, really love me
Let it happen darling I won't care
Shall I catch a shooting star
Shall I bring it where you are
If you only say you care
I can make a mountain fall
I'll do anything at all
As long as you are there
When at last my life on earth is through
I will share eternity with you
If you love me, really love me
Let it happen darling I won't care
When at last my life on earth is through
I will share eternity with you
If you love me, really love me
Let it happen darling I won't care

Ella Se Perdió
Ella Se Perdió
Performer(s): Pedro Aznar
Ella se perdió
porque suponía lo que debería pasar
Ella se perdió
entre las palabras esperando que abran el mar
Y siempre oyó lo que él no le decía
oía muy mal
Ella fue y volvió
por caminos ciegos, se quemó con fuego al pasar
Ella fue y volvió
ya sin compañía porque no quería cambiar
Y siempre vio fantasmas que no había
veía muy mal
Por hablar
Por no dormir
Por hoy vivir
en el ayer
Por guardar
dentro de sí
Por no salir
Por no perder
Ella se perdió
cuando ni pensaba que la suerte estaba en impar
Ella se perdió
se metió en un viento que cortó su aliento al soplar
Y siempre dijo lo que ella creía
decía muy mal

If You Look In Her Eyes
If You Look In Her Eyes
Composer(s): Otto Harbach; Louis A. Hirsch
A maiden's lips no longer express things that she'd have you know
She says "no," but means to say "yes"
When you're to stay says, "Go!"
But Mother Nature's worked out a plan
Easy for him who tries
If a girl is fooling a man
He need but watch her eyes
Language is the art to conceal
Feelings and thoughts, we're told
Speech is silver, poets reveal
Silence they say is gold
What they mean is easily shown
Listen and you'll be wise
Close a girl's lips tight with your own
then she just can't tell lies
She'll tell you what you're to do, dear
If you'll look in her eyes
What is expected of you, dear
You will have to surmise
She may not say one word yet
Some how you'll get a sort of knowing look
Sort of glowing look
She'll tell you what you're to do, dear
If you'll look in her eyes

If You Live
Composer(s): Mose Allison
First release by: Mose Allison
Covered by multiple other artists
If you live your time will come
I say if you live your time will come
So child don't mess with that cotton sack
It will scratch your knees and bend your back
And if you live your time will come
If you live your day will come
If you live your day will come
So child don't play with those pots and pans
They will soon enough ruin your pretty hands
And if you live your time will come
If you live a day will come
If you live a day will come
When the sun will shine
And the crops will grow
And you think you're not gonna worry no more
But if you live, your time will come

Ella Es Como El Agua
Ella Es Como El Agua
Performer(s): Pablo Guerrero
Ella es como el agua
se desliza entre los dedos
Ella es como el agua
escapa a un puño cerrado
Arena en mis zapatos
sigo tus huellas en silencio
Arena en mis dos ojos
rompen mis sueños tranquilos
Carreteras estrechas
nada me impide que estés a mi lado
porque cierro los ojos
y veo paisajes y un mar transparente
Juego con tu pelo
la pesadumbre tiene el color de tus cejas
Y te veo desnuda y limpia
cuando ahuyentas mis sombras
Ella es de sonidos
no dejes de hablarme en silencio
porque tus palabras
perfuman la noche y abren mis sentidos
Ella es como el aire
que abrió cuatro puertas cerradas
que yo pasé como un niño
perdido que encuentra a su madre
Carreteras estrechas
nada me impide que estés a mi lado
porque cierro los ojos
y veo paisajes y un mar transparentes
Juego con tu pelo
la pesadumbre tiene el color de tus cejas
Y te veo desnuda y limpia
cuando ahuyentas mis sombras
Ella es como el agua
Ella es de sonido
Ella es como el agua
Ella es como el aire

If You Leave Me Tonight I'll Cry
Composer(s): Harold Mooney; Gerald Sanford
Performer(s): Jerry Wallace; Loretta Lynn
(If you leave, take my heart, take my heart)
If you leave me tonight I will cry
Though you say we will soon meet again
For the hours I've spent here with you
Are like words from a poet's pen
Words like love, and truth, and goodness
Words like till death us do part
I will never love another
Take my heart, take my heart, take my heart
(Take my heart)
Yes, the hours I've spent here with you
Are like words from a poet's pen
Words like love, and truth, and goodness
Words like till death us do part
I will never love another
Take my heart, take my heart, take my heart
Take my heart, take my heart, take my heart
Take my heart (take my heart)

Ella (Raphael)
Ella
Composer(s): L. Flavio
Performer(s): Raphael
Yo, yo no puedo olvidarla
Ella, ella ya me olvido
Y yo la recuerdo ahora
Era como la primavera
Su anochecido pelo
Su voz dormida un beso
Y junto al mar la fiebre
Que me llevo a su entraña
Y soñamos con hijos
Que nos robo la carma
Ella, ella ya me olvido
Yo, yo no puedo olvidarla
No, que no puedo olvidarla
Ella, ella ya se olvido
De aquellas caminatas
Junto a la cosatnera
Y al chico que miraba
Ella, ella ya me olvido
Y yo, yo no puedo olvidarla
Que no, que no puedo olvidarla
Ella, ella ya me olvido
Y yo, yo la recuerdo ahora
Como no recordarla
Si en cada primavera
Me llega con la brisa
Que la lleva la arena
A mi ella, ella ya me olvido
Yo, yo no puedo olvidarla
No, yo no puedo olvidarla
No, que no puedo olvidarla

If You Leave Me Now
If You Leave Me Now
Composer(s): Peter Cetera
First release by: Chicago - 1976
Covered by multiple other artists
If you leave me now, you'll take away the biggest part of me
No baby please don't go
If you leave me now, you'll take away the very heart of me
No baby please don't go
A love like ours is love that's hard to find
How could we let it slip away
We've come too far to leave it all behind
How could we end it all this way
When tomorrow comes we'll both regret
Things we said today
'Cause I need you more than you'll ever know

Ella (Miguel Gallardo)
Ella
Composer(s): Luis Fierro
Performer(s): Miguel Gallardo
Ella se marcho, con otro hombre
y su huella, dejo en mi piel
martirizándome
Tuve a otra mujer, para olvidarla
pero aún sigo, en mi habitación
emborrachándome
Ella, me falta ella
si ella, perderé la razón
Ella, me acuerdo de ella
que cruel, a veces es el amor
Ella me dejo, por otro hombre
y entre trago y trago sueño
que está esperándome
Pensará que ya, la abre olvidado
pero ignora, que su ausencia
está matándome
Ella, me falta ella
si ella, perderé la razón
Ella, me acuerdo de ella
que cruel, a veces es el amor
Ella, me falta ella
si ella, perderé la razón
Ella, me acuerdo de ella
que cruel, a veces es el amor
Ella... Sin ella

If You Leave
Composer(s): Martin Handsley Cooper; Paul David Humphreys; Andy McCluskey
First release: Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark - 1986
Covered by multiple other artists
If you leave, don't leave now
Please don't take my heart away
Promise me just one more night
Then we'll go our separate ways
We've always had time on our sides
Now it's fading fast
Every second every moment
We've got to--we've gotta make it last
I touch you once I touch you twice
I won't let go at any price
I need you now like I needed you then
You always said we'd still be friends someday
If you leave I won't cry
I won't waste one single day
But if you leave don't look back
I'll be running the other way
Seven years went under the bridge
Like time standing still
Heaven knows what happens now
You've got to--you've gotta say you will
I touch you once I touch you twice
I won't let go at any price
I need you now like I needed you then
You always said we'd meet again
I touch you once I touch you twice
I won't let go at any price
I need you now like I needed you then
You always said we'd still be friends
I touch you once I touch you twice
I won't let go at any price
I need you now like I needed you then
You always said we'd meet again someday
If you leave
Oh if you leave
Oh if you leave
Don't look back
Don't look back

Ella ( José Alfredo Jiménez)
Ella
Composer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez
Performer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez
Me cansé de rogarle
me cansé de decirle
que yo sin ella
de pena muero
Ya no quiso escucharme
si sus labios se abrieron
fue pa'decirme
"ya no te quiero"
Yo sentí que mi vida
se perdía en un abismo
profundo y negro
como mi suerte
Quise hallar el olvido
al estilo Jalisco
pero aquellos mariachis
y aquel tequila
me hicieron llorar
Me cansé de rogarle
con el llanto en los ojos
alcé mi copa
y brindé por ella
No podía despreciarme
era el último brindis
de un bohemio
con una reina
Los mariachis callaron
de mi mano sin fuerza cayó mi copa
sin darme cuenta
Ella quiso quedarse
cuando vio mi tristeza
pero ya estaba escribo
que aquella noche
muriera su amor

If You Know What I Mean
If You Know What I Mean
Composer(s): Neil Diamond
Performer(s): Neil Diamond
and multiple other artists
When the night returns just like a friend
When the evening comes to set me free
When the quiet house that wait beyond the day
Make peaceful sounds in me
Took a drag from my last cigarette
Took a drink from a glass of old wine
I closed my eyes, and I could make it real
And feel it one more time
Can you hear it, babe
Can you hear it, babe
From another time
From another place
Do you remember it, babe
And the radio played like a carnival tune
As we lay in our bed in the other room
When we gave it away for the sake of a dream
In a penny arcade, if you know what I mean
Here's to the songs we used to sing
And here's to the times we used to know
It's hard to hold them in our arms again
But hard to let them go
Do you hear it, babe
Do you hear it, babe
It was another time
It was another place
Do you remember it, babe
And the radio played like a carnival tune
As we lay in our bed in the other room
When we gave it away for the sake of a dream
In a penny arcade, if you know what I mean!

If You Knew Susie (Like I Know Susie)
Composer(s): Buddy G. DeSylva; Joseph Meyer
Performer(s): Al Jolson
and multiple other artists
I have got a sweetie known as Susie
In the words of Shakespeare she's a "wow"
Though all of you may know her, too
I'd like to shout right now
Suzie has a perfect reputation
No one ever saw her on a spree
Nobody knows where Susie goes
Nobody knows but me
If you knew Susie, like I know Susie
Oh! Oh! Oh! What a girl
There's none so classy
As this fair lassie
Oh! Oh! Holy Moses, what a chassis
We went riding, she didn't balk
Back from Yonkers
I'm the one that had to walk
If you knew Susie, like I know Susie
Oh! Oh! What a girl!
If you knew Susie, like I know Susie
Oh! Oh! Oh! What a girl
She wears long tresses
And nice tight dresses
Oh! Oh!
What a future she possesses
Out in public
How she can yawn
In a parlour, you would think the war was on
If you knew Susie, like I know Susie
Oh! Oh! What a girl!
