He Sabido Que Te Amaba


He Sabido Que Te Amaba
Composer(s): Luigi Tenco; Gil Luano; Guiu Clara
Performer(s): Javier Solís;
and various other artists



He sabido que te amaba
cuando he visto que tardabas en llegar
y sentí desvanecer mi indiferencia
al temer que no volvieras nunca más

He sabido que te amaba
cuando hablas y me miras con pasión
y apaciguas con tu cálida palabra
el recelo al estar mi corazón

Recordaba que hace pocos días
decía a mis amigos no creo en el amor
y no quiero tener más ilusiones
ver cómo se burlan si hablas del amor, del amor

He sabido que te amaba
pero es tarde para que me vuelva atrás
quise ser indiferente un instante
pero sé que no podré dejar de amarte

Recordaba que hace pocos días
decía a mis amigos no creo en el amor
y no quiero tener más ilusiones
ver cómo se burlan si hablas del amor, del amor

He sabido que te amaba
pero es tarde para que me vuelva atrás
quise ser indiferente un instante
pero sé que no podré dejar de amarte

Spiral (Jethro Tull)


Spiral
Composer(s): Ian Anderson
Performer(s): Jethro Tull



Kilometers from nowhere on a scented avenue
Lined with poppy girls
I didn't stop, stop to say hello
Curious vendors - waving bric-a-brac
Looked me over
Thought it best, best that I should go
Don't wake me: I'm falling
Slow spiral into morning
Who's out there? Can't hear you
Ears covered - early warning
Alarm bells ringing
Time to make my peace with the dreary day

I waited atbles - I was tipped in roubles
Wine to water
Was the best that I could do
Wild office parties split the silence
Loaves and fishes at an empty table laid for two

Down the spiral, spinning madly
Gathering momentum
On a disneyesque adventure ride
I fly in colours from richer palettes
Famous artists running scared as worlds collide

Hello, I Love You


Hello, I Love You
Composer(s): John Densmore; Robbie Krieger;
Ray Manzarek; Jim Morrison
Performer(s): The Doors



Hello, I love you
Won't you tell me your name?
Hello, I love you
Let me jump in your game
Hello, I love you
Won't you tell me your name?
Hello, I love you
Let me jump in your game

She's walking down the street
Blind to every eye she meets
Do you think you'll be the guy
To make the queen of the angels sigh?

Hello, I love you
Won't you tell me your name?
Hello, I love you
Let me jump in your game
Hello, I love you
Won't you tell me your name?
Hello, I love you
Let me jump in your game

She holds her head so high
Like a statue in the sky
Her arms are wicked, and her legs are long
When she moves my brain screams out this song

Sidewalk crouches at her feet
Like a dog that begs for something sweet
Do you hope to make her see, you fool?
Do you hope to pluck this dusky jewel?

Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello
I want you
Hello
I need my baby
Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello

majesty, He reigns on High
Praise the Lord, worship His
majesty, He reigns on High
Praise the Lord, worship His
majesty, He reigns on High
Praise the Lord, worship His
majesty, He reigns on High

One thing have I desired, O Lord
That I may dwell in Your house forever
That I may always see Your beauty
And know the fullness of Your power

Tell Me Why (Monica Anghel & Marcel Pavel)


Tell Me Why
Composer(s): Ionel Tudor - Mirela Voiculescu Fugaru
First performance by: Monica Anghel & Marcel Pavel - 2002



We are behaving like two strangers in the gloomy night
We have lost so many feelings in this endless fight
If you want to go away, now I must obey
But for my part, you'll remain always in my heart

Tell me why we have to say goodbye
Was our love only a foolish lie?
Tell me why your eyes are cold and dry
No more tears, no more fears
Nothing more to share together

If you want to go away, now I must obey
But for my part, you'll remain always in my heart

Tell me why we have to say goodbye
Why we broke our wings in flight
Tell me why couldn't we just try
To forgive and believe we can reach the sky

Tell me why we have to say goodbye
Was our love only a foolish lie?
Tell me why your eyes are cold and dry
No more tears, no more fears
Nothing more to share together

Tell me why

He Pleases Me


He Pleases Me
Composer(s): Henry Mancini; Robert Wells
Performer(s): Henry Mancini



He's no more than a man
Nothing special that you'd run to see
He's a child to be sure, at times insecure
But he pleases me

Oh when I'm in his arms
And the last little star slowly dies
I'm enchanted to be the me
That I see in his eyes

He's a man, nothing more
Sort of clumsy and absent of mind
Not the kind of a beau I dreamed long ago
That I would find

He's my lover, my friend
What more could I ask him to be
So in our little plot
The mystery is what he sees in me

Why is it I never doubt him
When I've known all along
Now and then the very best of men must roam
Sure I get lonely without him

But a man, right or wrong
The more you bind him
The less you'll find him home

He's no more than a man
Just a weaver of wishes and dreams
Very shy, he's mature
The man he needs to be
And he pleases me

Hello, Hello


Hello, Hello
French Version: Hello Hello! (Joe Dassin)
Composer(s): Peter Kraemer; T. MacNeil
Performer(s): The Sopwith Camel



Hello hello
I like your smile
Hello hello
Shall we talk awhile?
Would you like some of my tangerine?
I know I'll never treat you mean
Never knew how I'd meet you
Didn't know how to greet you
When I saw you look that way
I knew I had to say
Hello hello hello hello
You've got pretty hair
Hello hello
Can'tcha tell I care?
Would you like some of my tangerine?
I know I'll never treat you mean
Always longed to say I love you
Always been too high above you
Now I'm not so far away
Now at last I can say
Hello hello Hello Hello

He loves and she loves and they love so why can't
You love and I love too?

And that's what we both should do

I always knew someday you'd come along
We'll make a twosome that just can't go wrong, darling

He loves and she loves and they love so won't you
Love me as I love you

Tell Me Why (Elvis Presley)


Tell Me Why
Composer(s): Titus Iurner
Performer(s): Elvis Presley



Every time I look at someone new
Tell me why I think of you
Then you sometimes ask me by
You're playing with love
Darling tell me why

You left me all alone
To cry over you
My heart is torn and broken
There's nothing left to do

In my prayers, I'll mention you
When you're gone I feel so blue
Why can't I have all of you
Oh, somebody, please tell me why

Hello Hello!


Hello Hello!
English Version: Hello, Hello (The Sopwith Camel)
Composer(s): Peter Kraemer; Claude Lemesle; T. MacNeil
Performer(s): Joe Dassin



Hello, hello, tu as l'air pressé
Hello, hello, j'ai à te parler
Est-ce que tu veux un quartier de ma clementine
Les fruits c'est bon pour la santé

J'avais besoin de dire "je t'aime"
Il était temps que tu viennes
Je ne pouvais plus tenir
J'avais ces deux mots à te dire

Hello, hello, où vas-tu comme ça
Hello, hello, c'est gentil chez moi

J'ai cherché des nuits entières
Comment je pourrais te plaire
Mais quand je t'ai vu venir
J'ai su que je devais dire

Hello, hello, j'aime tes cheveux
Hello, hello, souris-moi un peu

Est-ce que tu veux terminer ma clementine
Dis, j'en ai d'autres si tu veux
Oui, j'en ai d'autres si tu veux

He Must Have Been Eighteen


He Must Have Been Eighteen ((Adapted from: Il Venait D'avoir 18 Ans (Dalida) - 1974)) Composer(s): Pascal Auriat - Pascal Sevran - Serge Lebrail - Krissen Performer(s): Dalida - 1974

Versions In Other Languages: 1974 - Hij Was Pas Achttien (Conny Vandenbos) 1974 - Er War Gerade 18 Jahr (Dalida) 1974 - Diciotto Anni (Dalida) 1974 - Juuhassai No Kare (Dalida)



I think he must have been eighteen
He was as fragile as a dream
Strong as a man
Seeing the summer in his eyes
I felt my autumn as it flies
Like grains of sand

I added make-up to my face
As if to cover some disgrace
I saw him smiling
Rainbows and colours of the spring
I would have given anything
To win his loving

I think he must have been eighteen
A movie star on any screen
It made him careless
He never said a word of love
He thought that speaking about love
Was only worthless

And then as if the line were new
He simply whispered, "I want you
Let's stay together"
We drifted slowly through the night
I never knew a love more right
Not since, not ever

I think he must have been eighteen
It made him vain and almost mean
His looks abusing
Without a word he slowly dressed
Leaving me to my loneliness
My share of losing

I could have tried to make him mine
I let him go without a sign
My face was lying
He said, I am not the kind to fall
Love is for grown-ups after all
I felt like crying

I added make-up to my face
As if to cover some disgrace
I saw him smiling
I had forgotten in a dream
That I was almost twice eighteen

What goes up must come down (cowbell enters)
Spinning wheel got to go 'round (full drum kit enters)
Talking 'bout your troubles it's a crying sin
Ride a painted pony let the Spinning wheel spin

You got no money and you got no home
Spinning wheel all alone
Talking 'bout your troubles and you never learn
Ride a painted pony let the Spinning wheel turn

Did you find the directing sign on the
Straight and narrow highway
Would you mind a reflecting sign
Just let it shine within your mind
And show you the colours that are real

Someone is waiting just for you
Spinning wheel, Spinning true
Drop all your troubles by the riverside
(1: Catch a painted pony on the spinning wheel ride)
(2: Ride a painted pony let the spinning wheel fly)

Hello! Hello! Who's Your Lady Friend?


Hello! Hello! Who's Your Lady Friend?
Composer(s): Worton David; Bert Lee; Harry Fragson



Jeremiah Jones, a ladies' man was he
Every pretty girl he loved to spoon
Still he found a wife along beside the sea
Went to Margate for the honeymoon
But when he strolled along the promenade
with his little wife just newly wed
He got an awful scare when someone strolling there
Came up to him and said

"Hello! Hello! Who's your lady friend?
Who's the little girl by your side?
I've seen you with a girl or two
Oh! Oh! Oh! I'm (I am) surprised at you

Hello! Hello! Stop your little games
Don't you think your ways you ought to mend?
It (This) isn't the girl I saw you with at Brighton
Who? Who? Who's your lady friend?

I long to be His possession

Without sunshine or sight to lead the way
But a whisper of His voice softly calling
To the arms of my Maker to stay

He is my reason for living
Oh He is the king of all kings
I long to be His possession
Oh, He is my everything

After the lighting and thunder
After the last bell has rung
I want to bow down before Him
And hear Him say well done

He is my reason for living
Oh He is the king of all kings
I long to be His possession
Oh, He is my everything

Sai che un cielo azzurro dura fino a sera, poi la notte arrivera
Una primavera sai, in un'ora avrai

Hello! Boys, I'm Back Again


Hello! Boys, I'm Back Again
Composer(s): Harry Von Tilzer
Performer(s): Dan W. Quinn



Hello boys remember when I said goodbye to you
I got married but it didn't take and I am through
Though love is blind my eyes were opened on my wedding day
I found that she had seven kids and each one had his day
When the preacher made us one she thought
She was the one and I was just a nun

Hello boys, I'm back again
You know how glad I am to meet you greet you
I'm through with matrimony
I'm dodging alimony
Hip hooray, say, the world began today
For I don't have to go to bed at nine
With her icy feet upon my spine
No more sneaking home at three
Going through the third degree
Hello boys, I'm back again

I have lived a dog's life since my wedding day you see
Yes they must have handed out a dog license to me
Instead of wedding cake I must have eaten lemon pie
I had her life insured but just for spite she wouldn't die
She missed me round the house at eight
But never missed me when she threw a plate

Hello boys, I'm back again
You know how glad I am to meet you greet you
I'm through with matrimony
I'm dodging alimony
Hip hooray, say, the world began today
For I fed chickens that would lay for me
And I also fed her family
I can pick a chicken too
Not the kind that lay for you
Hello boys, I'm back again

Home sweet home, a grand old song, I sing it when I can
But the guy who wrote it never was a married man
I used to stay at home all day and hold her hand you see
For if I didn't hold it she'd let something fly at me
One day her mother came with us to dwell
The landlord raised the rent and I raised, well

Hello boys, I'm back again
You know how glad I am to meet you greet you
I'm through with matrimony
Those wedding bells are phony
Hip hooray, say, the world began today
No more commuting to that old resort
Where henpecking was my indoor sport
If some chicken's in distress
You can give her my adress
Hello boys, I'm back again

He Hit Me (And It Felt Like A Kiss)


He Hit Me (And It Felt Like A Kiss)
Composer(s): Gerry Goffin; Carole King
Performer(s): The Crystals;
and various other artists



He hit me
And it felt like a kiss
He hit me
But it didn't hurt me

He couldn't stand to hear me say
That I'd been with someone new
And when I told him I had been untrue

He hit me
And it felt like a kiss
He hit me
And I knew he loved me

If he didn't care for me
I could have never made him mad
But he hit me
And I was glad

Yes, he hit me
And it felt like a kiss
He hit me
And I knew I loved him
And then he took me in his arms
With all the tenderness there is
And when he kissed me
He made me his

7th Wonder


7th Wonder
Composer(s): Philip Vella - Gerard James Borg
First performance by: Ira Losco - 2002



Seven degrees
I'm down on my knees
Waiting for the man to put me under his spell

Seven o' five
He walks into sight
Givin' me the eye, he lifts my spirits high

His passion burns and my luck takes a turn
I'm reborn and alive with his love to survive

Is it good? Is it bad?
Am I simply going mad?
Is it fiction or fact?
Am I really losing tact?
Is he magical, logical, natural? I wonder
He's got the makings of my seventh wonder
Ooh hoo... hoo... hoo...

Seventy three kisses for me
That whisper through the silence his feelings for me
Softly he dips my cherry-red lips
In the essence of a hope on which my love can float

His passion burns and my luck takes a turn
I'm reborn and alive with his love to survive

Is it good? Is it bad?
Am I simply going mad?
Is it fiction or fact?
Am I really losing tact?
Is he magical, logical, natural? I wonder
He's got the makings of my seventh wonder

On seven seas we sail on this dream
Turning it into virtual reality
Reality

Is it good? Is it bad?
Am I simply going mad?
Is it fiction or fact?
Am I really losing tact?
(Is he magical?) Magical
(Logical, natural? I wonder)
He's got the makings of my seventh wonder

Am I weak? Am I strong?
In his arms do I belong?
I could climb mountain high
For his love I'd learn to fly
Is he magical, logical, natural? I wonder
He's got the makings of my seventh wonder
(Is he fiction or a matter of fact?)
Seventh wonder
(Is he fiction or a matter of fact?)
Seventh wonder
