Esta Es La Vida


Esta Es La Vida
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez



Esta que canta si sale el duende
y hace silencio donde ya no
ésta es la vida que me sorprende
ésta es la vida que me parió

Esta es la vida
ésta es la sal querida
que goza, que sangra mi amor
Este es mi polvo y mi flor
y mi lluvia, rayo, golpe de viento
ésta es mi cruz
y el alimento
de mi luz

Esta es la vida que me enamora
ésta es la vida que me da voz
la que regaña cuando se atora
la que no excusa siquiera Dios

corazón que ha sabido amar llorando
corazón que ha querido cantar verdad
corazón que ha sabido morir andando
corazón prisionero de libertad

Esta es la vida
ésta es la sal querida
que goza, que sangra mi amor
Este es mi polvo y mi flor
y mi lluvia, rayo, golpe de viento
ésta es mi cruz
y el alimento
de mi luz

I'll Take The Dog


I'll Take The Dog
Composer(s): Marge Barton; Fred McRae
Performer(s): Jean Shepard & Ray Pillow



Well we just left the courthouse this morning
And the judge said we could go our seperate ways
And everything we own must be divided just like the separation papers say
You can keep the curtains and the tables and the chairs
And all those dirty dishes in the sink
Well you can take that golf club and the television set
And that lawnmower that's always on the blink
You can keep all the records and the hi-fi set
You can take that phoney fireplace and the log
Now you keep the car you keep the boat and I'll take the dog
No I'll take the dog oh no I'm gonna take the dog
Well who's gonna bring me my paper who's gonna keep me company
You'll just have to give him up no I ain't a partin' with the pupp

The dog belongs to me
Now hold on Ray you ain't gonna take this dog away from me
I'm the one that feeds him every day
And who always takes care of him when he's sick
Now wait just a minute Jeannie I guess that you forget
Who it was that always took him to the bed
Paid for all of them shots of seven bucks a lick
You can just forget about him I ain't leaving you without him
Then you'll just have to stay I guess that's the only way okay
I'll give back the curtains and the tables and the chairs
And I'll wash the dirty dishes in the sink
And I won't take the golf clubs and the television set
And I'll fix that mower that's always on the blink
We'll both listen to the records on the hi-fi set
By the fireplace with this gas burnin' log
We'll go ridin' in our car and we'll go sailin' in our boat
And we'll both take the dog yes we'll both take the dog
Come on baby (huff huff)

Esta Duda


Esta Duda
Composer(s): Humberto Romero - C. Daniel Performer(s): Javier Solís



Te quiere tanto el corazón que a veces pienso
que puedes olvidarme en un momento
pues mi alma es solo tuya tú lo sabes
por eso mi pasión tiene esa duda

Tú me quieres, nos queremos con locura
y mi amor te hace falta a ti también
Yo no puedo pensar que tú me olvidas
pues no quiero que sufra el corazón

Tú me quieres nos queremos con locura
y mi amor te hace falta a ti también
Yo no puedo pensar que tú me olvidas
pues no quiero que sufra el corazón
pues no quiero que sufra el corazón

I'll Keep It With Mine


I'll Keep It With Mine
Composer(s): Bob Dylan
First release by: Bob Dylan - 1991
Covered by multiple other artists



You will search, babe
At any cost
But how long, babe
Can you search for what's not lost?
Ev'rybody will help you
Some people are very kind
But if I can save you any time
Come on, give it to me
I'll keep it with mine

I can't help it
If you might think I'm odd
If I say I'm not loving you for what you are
But for what you're not
Everybody will help you
Discover what you set out to find
But if I can save you any time
Come on, give it to me
I'll keep it with mine

The train leaves
At half past ten
But it'll be back tomorrow
Same time again
The conductor he's weary
He's still stuck on the line
But if I can save you any time
Come on, give it to me
I'll keep it with mine

Esta Canción


Esta Canción
Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez; Soledad Bravo



Me he dado cuenta
de que miento
Siempre he mentido
siempre he mentido
He escrito tanta
inútil cosa
sin descubrirme
sin dar conmigo
No amar en seco
con tanto dolor
es quizás la última verdad
que quede en mi interior
bajo mi corazón

No se si fue
que malgasté mi fe
en amores sin porvenir
que no me queda ya
ni un grano de sentir

(Yo se que a nadie
le interesa
lo de otra gente
con sus tristezas)

Esta canción
es más que una canción
que un pretexto para sufrir
y más que mi vivir
y más que mi sentir

Esta canción es la necesidad
de agarrarme a la tierra al fin
de que te veas en mi
de que me vea en ti

(Yo sé que hay gente
que me quiere
Yo sé que hay gente
que no me quiere)

I'll Just Close My Eyes (And Make Believe It's You)


I’ll Just Close My Eyes (And Make Believe It's You)
Composer(s): Jimmy Kennedy
Performer(s): Anne Shelton



If I should dance with someone else
Don’t let it make you blue
I’ll just close my eyes
And make believe it’s you

If someone new should hold my hand
Don’t think that I’m untrue
I’ll just close my eyes
And make believe it’s you

Though other arms may for a while enfold me
I’ll remember all you told me
Only your arms will hold me

If other lips are close to mine
You’ll still be smiling through
I’ll just close my eyes
And make believe it’s you

We’re parting, my darling
And you’re worried I know
Don’t worry, my darling
Now that I have to go
I know I’ll meet lots of people
Make some friends that are new
But I don’t want a lot of people
All I love and want is you

Though other arms may for a while enfold me
I’ll remember all you told me
Only your arms will hold me

If other lips are close to mine
You’ll still be smiling through
I’ll just close my eyes
And make believe it’s you

Essere


Essere
((French Version: Être (Charles Aznavour))
Composer(s): Raggi - Charles Aznavour - Georges Garvarentz
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour



Essere
Rinascere la vita
In un'alba di creta
Sotto lune infuocate
Quando l'inverno cade giù
Essere
Emergere dal vuoto
Veder brillare al sole
Le corde del mio cuore
Presagio di un'estate in più
Essere
Un seme abbandonato
In un suolo spossato
E fiorire laggiù
Soffio lieve di gioventù
Essere
Conoscere di esistere
Guardare fino a Dio
E vivere per essere io
Per amare fino alla morte
E forse dopo ancora
Per capire quale sia la sorte
Per amare fino alla morte
E certo dopo ancora
Essere
La voce senza fretta
Letì dei miei naufragi
Che stempera i disagi
Con tracce brevi di poesia
Essere
Fuggire dal ricatto
Dei luoghi più comuni
Aprire i miei vulcani
Domare il tempo e andare via
Essere
Il gesto che rispetta
Ripensato avvenire
Artigiano d'amore
Nei riti antichi di magia
Essere
Conoscere di esister
Guardare fino a Dio
E vivere per essere io
Per amare fino alla morte
E forse dopo ancora
Per capire quale sia la sorte
Per amare fino alla morte
E certo dopo ancora

I'll Have To Say I Love You In A Song


I'll Have To Say I Love You In A Song
Composer(s): Jim Croce
Performer(s): Jim Croce



Well I know it's kind of late
I hope I didn't wake you
But what I've got to say can't wait
I know you'd understand
Every time I tried to tell you
the words just came out wrong
So I'll have to say I love you in a song

You know it's kind of strange
But every time I'm near you
I just run out of things to say
I know you'd understand
Every time I tried to tell you
the words just came out wrong
So I'll have to say I love you in a song

Every time the time was right
all the words just came out wrong
So I'll have to say I love you in a song

You know it's kind of late
I hope I didn't wake you
But there's something that I've just gotta say
I know you'd understand
Every time I tried to tell you
the words just came out wrong
So I'll have to say I love you in a song

Essayez


Essayez
Composer(s): Tommy Brown - Micky Jones - Philippe Labro
Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday



Quand vos parents vous quitteront
Ils vous diront
Faut essayer de vous aimer
A votre tour de réussir
Tout ce que nous
Avons gachés, avons ratés
Essayer!

Tous les grands mots
Amour et Paix et Liberté
Essayez-les!
Et même si ça ne marche pas
Encore une fois
Essayez-les!

Marchands de guerre, doivent être fiers
Notre univers, ils l'ont gâché
Encore une fois, tendez les bras
Encore une fois
Faut essayer de vous aimer
Si malgré tout, bien avant vous
Tout a raté, faut essayer!

La vérité, la Liberté
L'amour et la Paix
Faut essayer!

Tous les grands mots
Amour et Paix et Liberté
Essayez-les!

I'll Have To Let Him Go


I'll Have To Let Him Go
Composer(s): Mickey Stevenson
Performer(s): Martha Reeves & The Vandellas



I saw him kiss another and watched him hold her tight
And I made up in my mind that very night
I've got to let him go, I've got to set him free
Even though I let him go, he's still a part of me
Oh now I know, yes I know there's someone he's thinkin' of
I'll have to let him go with all my love

I saw him (I saw him) but he didn't see me (but he didn't see me)
The tears just filled my eyes when he kissed her tonight
Oh it hurt me so inside, so much he'll never know
I'll simply hide my pride and I'll have to let him go (let him go)
Mmm I've got to let him go (let him go)

(Let him go) Move on, move on! my heart cries
(Let him go) Find yourself another; let him be
Oh (let him go) he's better off without me
(Let him go) This I know
My only wish is to make him happy, oh

I've got to say goodbye (got to say goodbye)
I've got to say so long (got to say so long)
Even though the years roll by, my love will carry on
Oh I must not tear his soul; surely he must know
That it's gonna hurt me so
But I'll have to let him go (let him go)
Yeah, it's gonna hurt me so
But I'll have to let him go (let him go)
I've got to say so long (let him go)
It's gonna hurt me so (say goodbye)
But I've got to say goodbye ...

Essaye


Essaye
Composer(s): Michel Jourdan - Noam Kaniel
Performer(s): Mireille Mathieu



Où va l'amour quand il s'en va?
On n'en sait rien mais en tout cas
Tu vas en rire un jour entier
d'avoir un soir autant pleuré

Si tu y mets un peu du tien
je te promets que ton chagrin
va, pour toujours briser sa cage
va s'éloigner tel un nuage

Comme l'oiseau qu'on a blessé
essaye encore de t'envoler

Essaye d'ouvrir encore tes ailes
face à l'immensité du ciel
tu es en vie, c'est l'essentiel
sèche tes larmes... au soleil

Essaye d'ouvrir encore tes yeux
et de fondre à tout ce bleu
le cœur léger, tu vas planer
comme un oiseau... en liberté!

Tu vis auprès du téléphone
tu t'endors plus et quand il sonne
Ça n'est jamais, jamais pourtant
le coup de fil que tu attends

Sors de chez toi, va au hasard
Tu croiseras d'autres regards
tu trouveras toujours quelqu'un
Dont le sourire te fera du bien

Comme l'oiseau tombé du nid
Essaye encore d'aimer la vie

Essaye d'ouvrir encore tes ailes
face à l'immensité du ciel
tu es en vie, c'est l'essentiel
sèche tes larmes... au soleil

Essaye d'ouvrir encore tes yeux
et de fondre à tout ce bleu
le cœur léger, tu vas planer
comme un oiseau... en liberté!

Aux jours heureux... lance un appel
d'un cri d'espoir... tu peux faire naître
un arc en ciel...
Essaye!

I'll Go To My Grave Loving You


I'll Go To My Grave Loving You
Composer(s): Don Reid
The Statler Brothers; Grandstaff; Kelly Hogan



I'll go, I'll go to my grave
To my grave lovin' you (lovin' you) lovin' you
I'd give, I'd give all I've saved
I've saved lovin' you (lovin' you) lovin' you
And should, and should I live again
Even then, it won't end
For I'll go, I'll go to my grave
To my grave lovin' you (lovin' you) lovin' you

Oh to take his place forever
There's nothin' I wouldn't give
I'd prove to you daily what a man really is

I'll lay, I'll lay down my life
Down my life lovin' you (lovin' you) lovin' you
I'd work, I'd work day and night
Day and night lovin' you (lovin' you)
lovin' you, lovin' you
And when, and when life calls us both above
Honey you'll know that you'd been loved
For I'll go, I'll go to my grave
To my grave lovin' you (lovin' you) lovin' you

I'll lay, I'll lay down my life
Down my life lovin' you (lovin' you) lovin' you
I'd work, I'd work day and night
Day and night lovin' you (lovin' you)
lovin' you, lovin' you
And when, and when life calls us both above
Honey you'll know that you'd been loved
For I'll go, I'll go to my grave
To my grave lovin' you (lovin' you) lovin' you

Essa Passou


Essa Passou
Composer(s): Carlos Lyra - Chico Buarque Performer(s): Carlos Lyra



Foi ela que me convidou
Fui eu que não soube chegar
Foi ela que me maltratou
Fui eu que não soube chorar
Andei sete léguas de amor
Chorei sete litros de mar
Mas ela não se saciou
Mas ela não soube esperar
Foi ela que me condenou
Sou eu que vou lhe perdoar
Foi ela que tanto pecou
Sou eu que vou me confessar
Foi ela que se ajoelhou
Sou eu que vou rezar
Foi ela que me arruinou
Sou eu que vou ter que pagar
Foi ela que me incendiou
É fogo na roupa contar
É mais um história de amor
Que outro me tome o lugar
Não está mais aqui quem chorou
Um outro que venha chorar
É mais um história de amor
Mas se ela chamar diz que eu não vou
Correr sete léguas de amor
Beber sete litros de mar
Pra ela dizer que acabou
Pra ela dizer que acabou
Pra ela dizer que não está
Pra ela dizer que não está

I'll Go On Alone


I'll Go On Alone
Composer(s): Marty Robbins
First release by: Marty Robbins - 1952
Covered by multiple other artists



We're travelin' down two diff'rent roads
In worlds so far apart
You want me yet there's somethin' else
Before me in your heart
You're wantin' me to change my life
The way you're livin' yours
But I can't change, I see no way
You wanted me before

If you don't want me like I am
Then please don't pity me
If you can't change a little bit
Then why not set me free
If we can't live together, then
It's best we live apart
You go your way and I'll go mine
We'll both make brand new starts

There's nothin' we can do it seems
We'll never get along
With you believin' like you do
You say I live so wrong
But I can't change my way of life
I've lived it much too long
You'll either take me like I am
Or I'll go on alone

So, either say you want my love
Or take the way you live
Remember though before you get
You've gotta learn to give
So, if its change my life, or go
Then go, it's gonna be
'Cause I change my life, when you
Want somethin' more than me

Essa Moça Tá Diferente


Essa Moça Tá Diferente
Composer(s): Chico Buarque
Performer(s): Chico Buarque
and multiple other artists



Essa moça tá diferente
Já não me conhece mais
Está pra lá de pra frente
Está me passando pra trás
Essa moça tá decidida
A se supermodernizar
Ela só samba escondida
Que é pra ninguém reparar
Eu cultivo rosas e rimas
Achando que é muito bom
Ela me olha de cima
E vai desinventar o som
Faço-lhe um concerto de flauta
E não lhe desperto emoção
Ela quer ve o astronauta
Descer na televisão
Mas o tempo vai
Mas o tempo vem
Ela me desfaz
Mas o que é que tem
Que ela só me guarda despeito
Que ela só me guarda desdém
Mas o tempo vai
Mas o tempo vem
Ela me desfaz
Mas o que é que tem
Se do lado esquerdo do peito
No fundo, ela ainda me quer bem

Essa moça tá diferente...

Essa moça é a tal da janela
Que eu me cansei de cantar
E agora está só na dela
Botando só pra quebrar

Mas o tempo vai...

Performer(s): Lee Sullivan
and multiple other artists



Charlie:
I used to be a rovin' lad
A rovin' an' wanderin' life I had
On any lass I'd frown, who would try to tie me down
But then one day, I saw a maid
Who held out her hand, an' I stayed an' stayed
An' now across the green, I'll go home with bonnie Jean

Townsfolk:
Go home, go home, go homw with bonnie Jean!
Go home, go home

Charlie:
I'll go home with bonnie Jean!
In Edinburgh I used to know a lass with an' air, an' her name was Jo
An' every night at ten, I would meet her in the glen
But now I'll not see her again. Especially not in the glen, at ten
For now across the green, I'll go home with bonnie Jean!

Townsfolk:
Go home, go home, go home with bonnie Jean!
Go home, go home

Charlie:
I'll go home with bonnie Jean!
Hello to married men I've known; I'll soon have a wife an' leave yours alone
A bonnie wife indeed, and she's all I'll ever need
With bonnie Jean my days will fly
An' love her I will till the day I die
That's why, across the green, I'll go home with bonnie Jean!

Townsfolk:
Go home, go home, go home with bonnie Jean!
Go home, go home

Charlie And Townsfolk:
I'll/He'll go home with bonnie Jean!

Esquecimento


Esquecimento
Composer(s): Raimundo Fagner - Brandão Performer(s): Raimundo Fagner



Amar nunca me coube
Mas sempre transbordou
O rio de lembranças
Que um dia me afogou
E nesta correnteza
Fiquei a navegar
Embora com certeza
Não possa me salvar
Amar nunca me trouxe
Completo esquecimento
Mais sempre se somou
Ao antigo tormento
E assim cada vez mais
Me prendo nesse nó
Que cada grito meu
Parece ser maior

I'll Go Down Swinging


I'll Go Down Swinging
Composer(s): Bill Anderson
First release by: Porter Wagoner
Covered by multiple other artists



The one I love don't want me hangin' 'round
All she does is put me on and put me down
Tonight she's with a stranger at a party in her home
And I'm here at the tavern gettin' stoned

'Cause if I gotta go, I'll go down swingin'
Where there's lights and laughter, booze and blonds
And lots of sad, sad singin'
I'll sober up tomorrow and cry all day I know
At least I'll go down swingin'
What a swingin' way to go

I'll dance with all the girls and buy the wine
Play the jukebox till I'm down to my last dime
She thinks she made a fool of me by lovin' someone else
She should see me make a fool out of myself

'Cause if I gotta go, I'll go down swingin'
Where there's lights and laughter, booze and blonds
And lots of sad, sad singin'
I'll sober up tomorrow and cry all day I know
At least I'll go down swingin'
What a swingin' way to go

Espumas


Espumas
Composer(s): Jorge Villamil Performer(s): Juan Torres and multiple other artists



Amores que se fueron
amores peregrinos
amores que se fueron
dejando en tu alma
negros torbellinos

Igual que las espumas
que deja el ancho río
se van tus ilusiones
siendo destrozadas
por el remolino

Espumas que se van
bellas rosas viajeras
se elevan en danzantes
y pequeños copos
formando el paisaje

Ya nunca volverán
las espumas viajeras
como las ilusiones
que te depararon
dichas pasajeras

Espumas tembladoras
de aguas fugitivas
van retratando amores
y bellos recuerdos
que deja la vida

Se trenzan en coronas
de blancos azahares
de rosadas diademas
cuando llevan flores
de las siemprevivas

Espumas que se van
bellas rosas viajeras
se elevan en danzantes
y pequeños copos
formando el paisaje

Ya nunca volverán
las espumas viajeras
como las ilusiones
que te depararon
dichas pasajeras
