Happy-Go-Lucky You (And Broken-Hearted Me)


Happy-Go-Lucky You (And Broken-Hearted Me)
Composer(s): Jack Murray; Al Goodhart; Al Hoffman
Performer(s): Bing Crosby;
and various other artists



Gone is the romance and broken the vow
We used to be sweethearts but what are we now?
Happy-go-lucky you and broken-hearted me

Man in the moon is sad as can be
He looks down from heaven and what does he see?
Happy-go-lucky you and broken-hearted me

You go to parties, you have your fling
I hope you'll never regret
You go to parties to dance and sing
I do the same to forget

And when I look at a couple in love
I watch them with envy and keep thinking of
Happy-go-lucky you and broken-hearted me

Desire


Desire
Composer(s): Gerard James Borg - Philip Vella
First performance by: Claudette Pace - 2000



From the first day I saw you
To the last time we met
I've desired to hold you
Have you and make you mine

But to have and to hold
To love and to grow
It takes two hearts that beat
To the rhythm of one

When you push me away
I taste fear and pain
Turns my fire to smoke
With one word, with one stroke

Deep in my heart is desire to love
Deep in my soul is desire to grow
Deep in your smile is desire for more
Deep when we kiss, the feeling that can't be missed

Let me live, let me die
Let me laugh, let me cry
Let me burn in your fire
In flames of desire

Be my river of hope
My mountain of truth
Let me colour your life
With the colour of love

Deep in my heart is desire to love
Deep in my soul is desire to grow
Deep in your smile is desire for more
Deep when we kiss, the feeling that can't be missed

Dejjem ridtek
Dejjem xtaqtek
Lilek žabbejt

Take me up, take me down
Take me into your arms
Spin the magic of love
With one word, with one smile

My desire runs deep
And I'm losing sleep
I wake up to the light
You're the key to my heart

Deep in my heart is desire to love
Deep in my soul is desire to grow
Deep in your smile is desire for more
Deep when we kiss, the feeling that can't be missed

(Deep in my heart is desire to love)
Deep in my soul
(Deep in my soul is desire to grow)
Deep in your smile is desire for more
Deep when we kiss, the feeling that can't be missed

Desire, desire, desire, desire love!

Heart Hotels


Heart Hotels
Composer(s): Dan Fogelberg
Performer(s): Dan Fogelberg



Well there's too many windows
In this old hotel
And rooms filled with reckless pride
And the walls have grown sturdy
And the halls have worn well
But there is nobody living inside
Nobody living inside

Gonna pull in the shutters
On this heart of mine
Roll up the carpets and pull in the blinds
And retreat to the chambers
That I left behind
In hopes there still may be love left to find
Still may be love left to find

Seek inspiration in daily affairs
Your soul's in trouble and requires repairs
And the voices you hear
At the top of the stairs
Are only echoes of unanswered prayers
Echoes of unanswered prayers

Well there's too many windows
In this old hotel
And rooms filled with reckless pride
And the walls have grown sturdy
And the halls have worn well
But there is nobody living inside
Nobody living inside
Nobody living inside

Happy, Happy Birthday Baby


Happy, Happy Birthday Baby
Composer(s): Margo Sylvia; Gilbert Lopez
Performer(s): The Tune Weavers;
and various other artists



Happy, Happy Birthday Baby
Although you're with somebody new
Thought I'd drop a line to say
That I wish this happy day
Would find me beside you

Happy, Happy Birthday Baby
No, I can't call you my baby
Seems like years ago we met
On a day I can't forget
'Cause that's when we fell in love

Do you remember the names we had for each other
I was your pretty, you were my baby
How could we say goodbye

Hope I didn't spoil your birthday
I'm not acting like a lady
So I'll close this note to you
With good luck and wishes too
Happy, Happy Birthday Baby

Soy Un Pobre Agujero


Soy Un Pobre Agujero
Composer(s): León Gieco
Performer(s): León Gieco



Me pueden mirar de arriba hacia abajo
y yo de abajo sólo puedo ver el cielo
Soy, sólo soy un pobre agujero

Hace ya tiempo guardo hojas del invierno
y revivo a veces algún sapo sediento
Soy, sólo soy un pobre agujero

Ni siquiera soy el de una guitarra
ni vendrán los arqueólogos en busca de un hueso
Soy, sólo soy un pobre agujero

No tengo cuerpo ni me sopla el viento
para el arregla calles quizás no molesto
Sólo tengo adentro, soy un pobre agujero

Hace ya tiempo soy amigo de un trapo
y de un solo gusano que el sol pone ciego
Soy, sólo soy un pobre agujero

Después de las lluvias crío renacuajos
pero cuando se van quedo solo en silencio
Soy, sólo soy un pobre agujero

Vivo tranquilo en mi solo bolsillo
casi siempre vacío o algún bicho pasajero
Soy, sólo soy un pobre agujero

Heart Full Of Soul


Heart Full Of Soul
Composer(s): Graham Gouldman
Performer(s): The Yardbirds



And I know if she had me back again
well I would never make her sad
I've gotta heart full of soul
Sick at heart and lonely
deep in dark despair
Thinking one thought only
where is she tell me where
And if she says to you
she doesn't love me
just give her my message
tell her of my plea
She's been gone such a long time
longer than I can bear
but if she says she wants me
tell her that I'll be there
And if she says to you
she doesn't love me
just give her my message
tell her of my plea

Happy Trails


Happy Trails
Composer(s): Dale Evans
Performer(s): Roy Rogers & Dale Evans



Some trails are happy ones, others are blue
It's the way you ride the trail that counts
Here's a happy one for you...

Happy trails to you
Until we meet again
Happy trails to you
Keep smilin' until then

Who cares about the clouds when we're together
Just sing a song and bring the sunny weather
Happy trails to you, til we meet again

Happy trails to you
Until we meet again
Happy trails to you
Keep smilin' until then

Who cares about the clouds when we're together
Just sing a song and bring the sunny weather
Happy trails to you, til we meet again

The Moon


The Moon
Composer(s): Dan Teodorescu
First performance by: Taxi - 2000



I knew it all from the start
I knew you'll rise above my world, a little sun warming my heart
I betrayed myself, I knew I lied
You've searched into my soul to find love
And found me hiding deep inside
You did see a way to set me free

Now I hear when the wind is playing with the stars of my night
Simply 'cause I have you near
Now I feel when the moon is playing on and on and on with my heart
Simply 'cause your love is real
Oh...

I knew it all, I understood
I simply blinked and let the light give me reasons to be good
You did see a way to set me free

Now I hear when the wind is playing with the stars of my night
Simply 'cause I have you near
Now I feel when the moon is playing on and on and on with my heart
Simply 'cause your love is real
Oh...

Yes, I feel when the moon is playing
Oh...

Now I hear how the wind is playing with the stars of my night
Simply 'cause I have you near
Now I feel when the moon is playing on and on and on with my heart
Simply 'cause your love is real
Oh...
Oh...

Heart Attack


Heart Attack
Composer(s): Steve Kipner; Paul Bliss
Performer(s): Olivia Newton-John



My mouth is dry, my legs are weak
I'm thinking this cause I can't speak
I'm looking at you, you're looking at me
You must think that I'm just crazy

If you only knew what you're putting me through
It feels like a heart attack
You're giving me a heart attack
Heart attack
You're giving me a heart attack
Must have died and gone to heaven
What a way to go

I can't catch my breath
You must be a dream
But you're the cutest thing I've ever seen
I'm way past the point of recovery
You're gonna be the death of me

If you only knew what you're putting me through
It feels like a heart attack
You're giving me a heart attack
Heart attack
You're giving me a heart attack
Must have died and gone to heaven
What a way to go
A heart attack
You're giving me a heart attack
Heart attack
You're giving me a heart attack
You're giving me a heart attack
You're giving me a heart attack

Happy Together

Performer(s): The Turtles;

Imagine me and you, I do
I think about you day and night
It's only right
To think about the girl you love
And hold her tight
So happy together

If I should call you up, invest a dime
And you say you belong to me
And ease my mind
Imagine how the world could be
So very fine
So happy together

I can see me lovin' nobody but you
For all my life
When you're with me baby the skies'll be blue
For all my life
Me and you and you and me
No matter how they toss the dice
It had to be
The only one for me is you
And you for me
So happy together

I can see me lovin' nobody but you
For all my life
When you're with me baby the skies'll be blue
For all my life
Me and you and you and me
No matter how they toss the dice
It had to be
The only one for me is you
And you for me
So happy together

Me and you and you and me
No matter how they toss the dice
It had to be
The only one for me is you
And you for me
So happy together
So happy together

How is the weather
So happy together
We're happy together
So happy together
Happy together
So happy together
So happy together

Soy Un Hippie


Soy Un Hippie
Performer(s): Fito Páez



Llevo todo el dia escapando de los fans
salen de los tazis, de la sopa, del placard
preferiría andar borracho
en el subte

Todos los conciertos son un acto de maldad
todos los ensayos y jamás pude escuchar
preferiría andar cantando
en el subte

Quieres acercarte a mi
y siempre te vas
quieres que te hable a ti
y no me escuchas

...pues esta es la verdad...

I'm a hippie
siempre fue asi
hay un hippie
dentro de mi
no me tomes tan en serio, solo dejo que ocurra

Salgo disfrazado con peluca y un gabán
y los empleados me saludan al pasar
preferiría estar limpiando
en el subte

Yo rezo cada dia a la virgen del Luján
para que me haga invisible en la ciudad
cuando recuerdo mis mañanas
en el subte...
quieres acercarte a mi
y siempre te vas
quieres que te hable a ti
y no me escuchas

...pues esta es la verdad...

Solo me dedico a andar tirado por ahi
perdiendo el tiempo y olvidándome de mi
(si tuvieras que vivir con "éste" solo una semana más
¡que pesado!) (ese es todo tu sueño)
volverías a tu soledad

Soy un hippie
en el subte
hay un hippie
en el subte
hippie...

Heart And Soul


Heart And Soul
Composer(s): Hoagy Carmichael; Frank Loesser
Performer(s): Larry Clinton;
and various other artists



Heart and soul, I fell in love with you
Heart and soul, the way a fool would do, madly
Because you held me tight
And stole a kiss in the night

Heart and soul, I begged to be adored
Lost control, and tumbled overboard, gladly
That magic night we kissed
There in the moon mist

Oh! but your lips were thrilling, much too thrilling
Never before were mine so strangely willing

But now I see, what one embrace can do
Look at me, it's got me loving you madly
That little kiss you stole
Held all my heart and soul

Happy To Make Your Acquaintance

Performer(s): Sammy Davis Jr.;

When you meet somebody
For the first time
There are special things
You're supposed to say
Which you may not mean
But they sound polite as can be
Would you like to learn them?

Well then, repeat after me
Hapy to make your acquaintance

'Appy to make your acquaintance

Thank you so much, I feel fine
T'ank you so much, omma feel fine

Happy to make your acquaintance
Acquaintance
And let me say the pleasure
Da pleasure

Da pleasure's-a mine

How do you do? Pleased to know you
'Ow do you do? Pleased to know you
And though my English is poor
My English is-a goddamn' poor!

Happy to make your acquaintance
Now won't you please say, likewise
Look-a-wise
No
Likewise
Like-a-ways
No
Likewise
Oh, like-a-wise
I'm sure

On Aura Le Ciel


On Aura Le Ciel
First performance by: Sofia Mestari - 2000



Et dans tes yeux, mes yeux, plonger, traverser l'océan
Poser enfin la main sur toi
Et dans tes bras, mes bras, tomber, emportée par l'élan
Laisser enfin glisser mes doigts

On aura le ciel
Un peu des anges, les ailes, on s'envole toi et moi
On aura le miel
Un goût d'orange, cannelle, on s'envole toi et moi

Et sur ta peau, ma peau salée, savourer les moments
La nuit, flâner enfin un peu sur toi, mon baby
Et sur ton coeur, mon coeur, briller, déposer un diamant
La nuit, penser enfin un peu à moi

On aura le ciel
Un peu des anges, les ailes, on s'envole toi et moi
On aura le miel
Un goût d'orange, cannelle, on s'envole toi et moi

Oh... se jouer des nuages sous le ciel bleu, mon baby
Se jouer des nuages sous le ciel bleu
On aura le soleil au fond des yeux, mon baby
On aura le soleil au fond des yeux

Et sur ton coeur, mon coeur léger, emporté par le vent
Oh... toi et moi

On aura le ciel
Un peu des anges, les ailes, on s'envole toi et moi
On aura le miel
Un goût d'orange, cannelle, on s'envole toi et moi

On aura le ciel
(Et sur ta peau, ma peau salée, savourer les moments)
On s'envole toi et moi
On aura le miel
(Et sur ton coeur, mon coeur, briller, déposer un diamant)
On s'envole toi et moi

On aura le ciel
Un peu des anges, les ailes, on s'envole toi et moi
On aura le miel
Un goût d'orange, cannelle, on s'envole toi et moi

On aura le ciel

Heart Aches


Heart Aches
Composer(s): Jack Norworth
Performer(s): Barbelle



There are times when you're glad
there are times when you're sad
and life doesn't seem worth the while
But we all get our share of sorrow and care
there's a heart ache 'neath many a smile

There are heartaches we know
as the years come and go
it seems we can never explain
Why that ache seems to cling
when gladness should bring
all the sunshine and roses again

There's the heart ache when someone's lonesome
longing just for home sweet home
There's the heart ache when someone's mother prays for one who chose to roam
There's the heart ache when lover's quarrel
And the tear drops start to fall
But when you lose the one you're dreaming of
that's the greatest heart ache of all

Happy Times


Happy Times
Composer(s): Dan Penn; Dan Oldham
Performer(s): The Box Tops



Times!
All those happy times
Times!
Days of summer love
Times!
that I held your hand, and the world stood still
Uh-huh…

Times!
Those happy times
Times!
Down by the riverside
Times!
We were making love and listening to the birdies sing
Uh-huh…

Now, I'm all alone
Happy times are gone
Gone just like the season
Winter's on the ground
And my heart is cold
You left me without reason

Times!
Those happy times
Times!
Down by the riverside
Times!
We were making love and listening to the birdies sing
Uh-huh…

Times!
All those happy times
Times!
Days of summer love
Times!
that I held your hand, and the world stood still
Uh-huh…

Times!
Happy, happy times…
Times!
All those happy times…
Times!
O-o-o…

Soy Un Esclavo


Soy Un Esclavo
Composer(s): Rubén Galindo
Performer(s): Javier Solís



Ayer conocí el amor, me lo dijo el corazón
pues al verte a ti mujer se me quiso desprender
Por primera vez sentí a mi pecho palpitar
y sé bien que fue por ti pues ayer te conocí

Qué voy a hacer si para ti soy un esclavo
soy un esclavo de este amor que es imposible
Qué voy a hacer si para mí eres un sueño
algo tan grande que sólo viene del cielo

Ayer conocí el amor, me lo dijo el corazón
pues al verte a ti mujer se me quiso desprender
Por primera vez sentí a mi pecho palpitar
y sé bien que fue por ti pues ayer te conocí

Heart & Soul


Heart & Soul
Composer(s): Graham Russell
Performer(s): Air Supply



Just loving you has left the world behind
I wish I knew how love could be so blind
Now all these thing I never can let go
Can't let go
I'd give you my heart and soul
(I'd give you my heart and soul)
If that's what it takes to prove myself to you

I understand my life has lost control
What would I do without your love to hold
Nobody knows how much I've come alive
All that I have to give I give to you from deep inside
I'd give you my heart and soul
(I'd give you my heart and soul)
If that's what it take to prove myself to you

I'd give you my heart and soul
(I'd give you my heart and soul)
To hold you now and let your love come thru

And all these nights I sat alone waiting for someone
And here you are my very own
waiting for so long
I want to give you more than you have ever known before

Happy Talk


Happy Talk Composer(s): Oscar Hammerstein II - Richard Rodgers First performance by: Juanita Hall - 1949 Covered by multiple other artists



Happy talk
keep talkin' happy talk

Talk about things you'd like to do
You gotta have a dream
if you don't have a dream
How you gonna have a dream come true?
Talk about a moon floatin' in the sky

Lookin' like a lily on a lake
Talk about a bird learnin' how to fly
Makin' all the music he can make

Happy talk
keep talkin' happy talk

Let's talk about a star lookin' like a toy

Peekin' through the branches of a tree
Talk about a girl
talk about a boy
Countin' all the ripples on the sea

Happy talk
keep talkin' happy talk

Talk about a boy sayin' to the girl
Golly, Baby! I'm a lucky cuss!
Talk about a girl sayin' to the boy
'You and me are lucky to be us!"

Happy talk
keep talkin' happy talk

If you don't talk happy and you never have a dream
Then you'll never have a dream come true!

Once In A Lifetime (Ines)


Once In A Lifetime
Composer(s): Alar Kotkas - Ilmar Laisaar - Pearu Paulus - Jana Hallas
First performance by: Ines - 2000



I don't wish I could turn back time, I can move the mountains higher than high
Don't look back, hold on to your spirit, keep moving every minute

I know it seems a little premature to live for the moment, I'm just a girl
Don't look back, hold on to your spirit, keep moving every minute

What you give is what you get - there ain't no regrets

If you give me wings and reason why then I'll be an angel in your sky
Because I'm seventeen only once in a lifetime
Read my mind

I'm ready, why are you standing still? Are you coming with me? - I know you will
We can search the world together, come on, baby, now or never

What you give is what you get - there ain't no regrets

If you give me wings and reason why then I'll be an angel in your sky
Because I'm seventeen only once in a lifetime
Read my mind

If you give me wings and reason why then I'll be an angel in your sky
Because I'm seventeen only once in a lifetime
Read my mind

I believe there's a better place always somewhere else instead
I believe the grass is greener if I chase the magic no one else can find
(The magic no one else can find)

If you give me wings and reason why then I'll be an angel in your sky
Because I'm seventeen only once in a lifetime
Read my mind

If you give me wings and reason why then I'll be an angel in your sky
Because I'm seventeen only once in a lifetime
Read my mind

Because I'm seventeen only once in a lifetime
