Oh, heart
I hear you beating
But her heart just
Ain't beating like you

Oh, heart
You gotta watch out now
Or else she's gonna
Break you in two

Oh, heart, you better believe me
Save yourself for somebody new

Don't make such a fuss
There's no hope for us
She don't care the
Way that you do

Oh, heart
Please stop your pounding
Don't settle yourself for
Something that's wrong

Oh, heart
Now don't let her hear you
Come on now
You gotta be strong

Oh, heart, you better believe me
Save yourself for somebody new

Don't make such a fuss
There's no hope for us
She don't care the
Way that you do

Let me tell you now, heart
(Now be careful, heart)
I'm going crazy
(Now be careful, heart)
Can you hear a word that I say
(Now be careful, heart)

Oh, heart
(Now be careful, heart)
She doesn't want you
(Now be careful, heart)
There's no use
In acting this way
(Now be careful, heart)

Yes, I'm telling you, heart
(Won't you be careful, heart)
You better believe me
(Won't you be careful, heart)
Save yourself for somebody new
(Won't you be careful, heart)

Don't make such a fuss
There's no hope for us
She don't care the
Way that you do
(Now be careful, heart)

Yes, I'm telling you, heart
(Won't you be careful, heart)
You better watch out
(Now be careful, heart)

I'm telling you, heart, heart, heart
(Won't you be careful, heart)
Now watch out, you heart
(Won't you be careful, heart).....

Hard To Say I'm Sorry


Hard To Say I'm Sorry
Composer(s): Peter Cetera; David Foster
Performer(s): Chicago



"Everybody needs a little time away"
I heard her say
"From each other"

"Even lovers need a holiday
Far away
From each other"

Hold me now
It's hard for me to say I'm sorry
I just want you to stay

After all that we've been through
I will make it up to you
I promise to

And after all that's been said and done
You're just the part of me I can't let go

Couldn't stand to be kept away
Just for the day
From your body

Wouldn't wanna be swept away
Far away
From the one that I love

Hold me now
It's hard for me to say I'm sorry
I just want you to know

Hold me now
I really want to tell you I'm sorry
I could never let you go

After all that we've been through
I will make it up to you
I promise to

And after all that's been said and done
You're just the part of me I can't let go

After all that we've been through
I will make it up to you
I promise to
You're gonna be the lucky one

Heart Please Be Still


Heart Please Be Still
Composer(s): Ernest Tubb; Tommy Paige; Baby Stewart
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb



Heart Please Be Still
Don’t tell her you’re achin’
You’re pumping the tears into my eyes
She just mustn’t know the story of your breakin’
I can’t smile when part of me cries

When she played around
I thought that she was jokin’
And when I learned the truth
You had done been broken

So, Heart Please Be Still
Don’t tell her you’re aching
You just mustn’t tell her on me

Ah come in Hal

Butterball now

Heart Please Be Still
Don’t tell her of your sorrow
I’m afraid that your beating is too loud
They say the night is long
Before the bright tomorrow
A silver lining to every cloud

Wish the cloud would break
Before she hears you’re pleading
I don’t want her to know
That she’s all I’m needing

So, Heart Please Be Still
Don’t tell her you’re aching
You just mustn’t tell her on me

Spacer


Spacer
Composer(s): Bernard Edwards - Nile Rodgers
First release by: Sheila and B. Devotion - 1979



He's a spacer, a star chaser
A spacer

He's a ladies man
Always greets with a kiss on the hand
He protects us all
At the ready to answer a call
In his own special way he is gentle and kind
Oppression he hates
Love in his eyes
My heart skips a beat when I'm by his side

He's a spacer, a star chaser
A spacer
He's a spacer, a star chaser
A spacer

In our galaxy
You can't trust ev'ryone that you meet
I'm so lucky
He's the only one I'll ever need
He will blast off tonight
He puts his life on the line ev'rytime he's in flight
A man you can't trace
But our love will last beyond time and space

He's a spacer, a star chaser
A spacer

He's a spacer, a star chaser
A spacer
He's a spacer, a star chaser
A spacer

Heart On The Street


Heart On The Street
Composer(s): Tom Gray
Performer(s): Manfred Mann's Earth Band



I lay dreamin'
Electronic healer
Plugged in the groove
Not a thought in my head
Oh, you shook me away girl
Remember words that you said
Have a taste of another kind of fruit boy
Why not make all your dreams come all real
It's easy just keep your eyes open
Put your shoulder to the wheel
It's not my feet
It's just a heart on the street

Blue, Black and White
Can't we get anything right
What's the matter with you
What's the matter with me
It's just my heart on the street

I know, I know I'm just a John to your TV
I know, I know I'm just a radio Joe
But, pull me out the socket
And away we go
It's not my feet
It's just a heart on the street

Blue, Black and White
Can't we get anything right
What's the matter with you
What's the matter with me
It's just my heart on the street

Blue, Black and White
Can't we get anything right
What's the matter with you
What's the matter with me
It's just my heart on the street

Blue, Black and White
Can't we get anything right
What's the matter with you
What's the matter with me
It's just my heart on the street

Hard To Get


Hard To Get
Composer(s): Jack Segal
Performer(s): Gisele MacKenzie



When they were hard to get
You wanted my kisses
When first we met
How you wanted my kisses
They were hard to get
Till I was sure your love was true
Then I gave you all my heart
And all my kisses too

I wish that I'd been smart
And never adored you
You broke my heart
Easy kisses just bored you
But the day will come
When you will find to your regret
A love as true as mine
Is hard to get

I wish that I'd been smart
And never adored you
You broke my heart
Easy kisses just bored you
But the day will come
When you will find to your regret
A love as true as mine
Is hard to get

Spaceman


Spaceman
Composer(s): Harry Nilsson
First release by: Harry Nilsson - 1972



Bang, bang, shoot em' up, destiny
Bang, bang, shoot em' up to the moon
Bang, bang, shoot em' up one, two, three
(One, two, three, four!)

I wanted to be a spaceman
That's what I wanted to be
But now that I am a spaceman
Nobody cares about me

Hey mother earth
Won't 'cha bring me back down
Safely to the sea
But 'round and around and around and around
Is all she ever say to me

I wanted to make a good run
I wanted to go to the moon
I knew that it had to be fun
I told 'em to send me real soon
I wanted to be a spaceman
I wanted to be it so bad
But now that I am a spaceman
I'd rather be back on the pad

Hey mother earth
Won't 'cha bring me back down
Safely to the sea
But 'round and around and around and around
Is just a lot of lunacy
(Yeah!)
'Round and around and around and around and around
(So bring me back down)
'Round and around and around and around and around
Safe on the ground

Hey mother earth
Won't 'cha bring me back down
Safely to the sea
But 'round and around and around and around
Is all she ever say to me, yeah

You know I wanted to be a spaceman
That's what I wanted to be
But now that I am a spaceman
Nobody cares about me

Say, hey! You mother earth
You better bring me back down
I've taken just as much as I can
But around and around and around and around
Is the problem of a spaceman

(Ah's!)

Heart Of The Sunrise


Heart Of The Sunrise
Composer(s): Jon Anderson; Bill Bruford; Chris Squire
Performer(s): Yes;
and various other artists



Love comes to you and you follow
Lose one on to the Heart of the Sunrise
Sharp-Distance
How can the wind with its arms all around me

Lost on a wave and then after
Dream on on to the Heart of the Sunrise
Sharp-Distance
How can the wind with so many around me
Lost in the city

Lost in their eyes as you hurry by
Counting their broken ties they decide
Love comes to you and then after
Dream on on to the Heart of the Sunrise
Lost on a wave but you're dreaming
Dream on on to the Heart of the Sunrise
Sharp-Distance
How can the wind with its arms all around me
Sharp-Distance
How can the wind with so many around me
I feel lost in the city

Lost in their eyes as you hurry by
Counting their broken ties they decided

Straight light moving and removing
Sharpness of the colour sun shine
Straight light searching all the meanings of the song
Long last treatment of the telling that
Relates to all the words sung
Dreamer easy in the chair that really fits you

Love comes to you and then after
Dream on on to the Heart of the Sunrise
Sharp-Distance
How can the sun with its arms all around me
Sharp-Distance
How can the wind with so many around me
I feel lost in the city

Hard Times Are Over


Hard Times Are Over
Composer(s): Yoko Ono
Performer(s): John Lennon; Yoko Ono



It's been very hard
But it's getting easier now
Hard times are over, over for a while

The leaves are shining in the sun
And smiling inside
You and I watching each other on a street corner
Cars and buses and planes and people go by

But we don't care
We want to know
We want to know in each other's eyes
That hard times are over, over for sometime

Hard times are over
Hard times are over
Hard times are over, over for a while

It's been very rough
But it's getting easier now
Hard times are over, over for a while

The streams are twinkling in the sun
And I'm smiling inside
You and I walking together 'round the street corner

Hard times are over
Hard times are over
Hard times are over, over for a while

Colgado De Un Sueño


Colgado De Un Sueño
First performance by: Serafín Zubiri - 2000



Colgado de un sueño
en lo alto del cielo intento vivir
el mundo a lo lejos
parece pequeño visto desde aqui
Que no inporta lo que digan de mi
Que no tengo los pies en el suelo
Colgado de un sueño
Consigo vivir
Aqui no hay limites a mis deseos
Nada me pueden prohibir
Navego libre por mis pensamientos
¡Que no me bajen de aqui!
Aqui hay espacio para mis anhelos
Todo se puede cumplir
Que no me obliguen a pisar el suelo
Que sólo quiero seguir
Colgado De Un Sueño

Flotando en el aire
Sin miedo a caer
Que el mundo es pequeño
Que todas mis ansias no caben en el
Que no me importa lo que digan de mi
Que no tengo los pies en el suelo

Colgado de un sueño
Colgado de un sueño

Performer(s): Eric Clapton;

My mother told me
'Fore she passed away
Said son when I'm gone
Don't forget to pray

'Cause there'll be hard times

Who knows better than I?

Well I soon found out
Just what she meant
When I had to pawn my clothes
Just to pay the rent

Talkin' 'bout hard times
Lord those hard times
Who knows better than I?

I had a woman
Who was always around
But when I lost my money
She put me down

Talkin' 'bout hard times
Hard times

Lord, one of these days
There'll be no more sorrow
When I pass away

And no more hard times
No more hard times
Yeah, yeah, who knows better than I?

First release by: Deep Purple - 1972
Covered by multiple other artists



We had a lot of luck on Venus
We always had a ball on Mars
Meeting all the groovey people
We've rocked the Milky Way so far
We danced around with Borealice
We're space truckin' round the the stars
Come on let's go Space Truckin'

Remember when we did the moonshot
And Pony Trekker led the way
We'd move to the Canaveral moonstop
And everynaut would dance and sway
We got music in our solar system
We're space truckin' round the stars
Come on let's go Space Truckin'

The fireball that we rode was moving
But now we've got a new machine
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah the freaks said
Man those cats can really swing
They got music in their solar system
They've rocked around the Milky Way
They dance around the Borealice
They're Space Truckin' everyday
Come on

Heart Of Stone (Ernest Tubb)


Heart Of Stone
Composer(s): Johnny Bond; Ernest Tubb
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb



Once you had a heart of gold
Then you let your love grow cold
I was once your very own
But now your heart has turned to stone

Heaven help your Heart Of Stone
Help the heart I called my own
Tell me why the love I new
Had to prove to be untrue

Mercy, mercy hear me cry
All our love was just a lie
I don’t mean a ting to you
Heart Of Stone you’re so untrue

Heart Of Stone or heart of gold
Both can sometimes be so cold
How could you be so unfair?
Why did you pretend to care?

Heaven help your Heart Of Stone
Help the heart I called my own
Tell me why the love I new
Had to prove to be untrue

Hard Time Losin' Man


Hard Time Losin' Man
Composer(s): Jim Croce
Performer(s): Jim Croce



Chorus:
And you think you've seen trouble
Well you're lookin' at the man ah ha
Oh, the world's own original hard luck story
And a hard time losin' man

Oh, sometimes skies are cloudy
And sometimes skies are blue
And sometimes they say that you eat the bear
But sometimes the bear eats you
And sometimes I feel like I should go
Far far away and hide
'Cause I keep a waitin' for my ship to come in
And all that ever comes is the tide

Chorus

Oh I saved up all my money
I gonna buy me a flashy car
So I go downtown to see the man
And he smokin' on a big cigar
Well he must'a thought I were Rockefeller
Or an uptown man of wealth
He said "Boy I got the car that's made for you
And it's cleaner than the Board of Health"
Then I got on the highway...oh
I feelin' fine...I hit a bump
Then I found I bought a car held together
By wire, and a couple a' hunks of twine

Chorus

Oh, Friday night, feelin' right
I head out on the street
Standin' in the doorway
Was a dealer known as Pete
Well he sold me a dime of some super fine
Dynamite from Mexico
I spent all that night
Just tryin' to get right
On an ounce of Oregano

Chorus (4x)

Tell Me!


Tell Me!
Composer(s): Örlygur Smári - Sigurður Örn Jónsson
First performance by: August & Telma - 2000



With you in my life, it's destined to be right
And I know that it's true, girl, I was only made for you
So why don't we make the pieces fit and pack our bags tonight?
And go wherever love will take us, we'll make it all right

Tell me, tell me, tell me once, tell me twice
Tell me there is no compromise
We'll be together all the time
So say you will be mine

Oo... with you by my side, I'm on a rollercoaster-ride
And I know that it's true - boy, I was only made for you
Listen to me now, you've got to give me a sign
'Cause I can't wait here any longer, make up your mind

Tell me, tell me, tell me once, tell me twice
Tell me there is no compromise
We'll be together all the time

Tell me, tell me, tell me once, tell me twice
Tell me there is no compromise
We'll be together all the time
So say you will be mine

If you only knew all that we could do
We'd be together all alone, you and me
Like we were always meant to be

Oh... I don't know if it's fact or fiction
But I'm sure we'll make the right decision
Look into my eyes now, baby, give it all you've got

Tell me, tell me, tell me once, tell me twice
Tell me there is no compromise
We'll be together all the time

Tell me, tell it to me once, tell me twice
Tell me there is no compromise
We'll be together all the time

Serenata Serena (Franco Ricci)


Serenata Serena
Composer(s): E. Bonagura; Falcocchio
Performer(s): Franco Ricci; Oscar Carboni



Un poco per davvero, un pò per gioco
torniamo al sogno del balcone antico
Con un suonare fioco, fioco, fioco
ci assiste il mandolino che ci è amico

Ah, ah, ah, la luna guarda e sa
Serenata serena si' come serena è la sera
chi giurava "Si, sono sincera"
sincera non era

Non m'attende, non risponde
non mi tende le sue braccia
Si pretende, si nasconde
non discende, non s'affaccia

Serenata serena si' come serena e la sera
tu, sincera, canora, leggera
carezza il mio cuore
che amato non è

Chi mi voleva bene e me l'ha detto
chi m'ha donato il bacio più scarlatto
ha tinto più di un viso di rossetto
dimenticando il male che m'ha fatto

Ah, ah, ah, la donna questo fa
Serenata serena si' come serena è la sera
chi giurava "Si, sono sincera"
sincera non era

Non m'attende, non risponde
non mi tende le sue braccia
Si pretende, si nasconde
non discende, non s'affaccia

Serenata serena si' come serena e la sera
tu, sincera, canora, leggera
carezza il mio cuore
che amato non è

Ah ah ah ah, ah, ah, ah
l'amavo tanto!

Non s'affaccia!

Serenata serena se amore ha sbarrato la porta
se non vuole ascoltare il concerto
che importa, l'avverto
io canto per me!
