Here Come Those Tears Again


Here Come Those Tears Again
Composer(s): Jackson Browne; Nancy Farnsworth
Performer(s): Jackson Browne



Here come those tears again
Just when I was getting over you
Just when I was going to make it through
Another night without missing you
Thinking I might just be strong enough after all
When I hear your footsteps echoing in the hall
Baby here we stand again
Like we've been so many times before
Even though you looked so sure
As I was watching you walking out my door
But you always walk back in like you did today
Acting like you never even went away
Well I don't know if I can
Open up and let you in baby
Here come those tears
Here come those tears again
I can hear you telling me
How you needed to be free
And you had some things to work out alone
Now you're standing here telling me
How you have grown
Here come those tears again
Now you'll tell me how to hold them in
Here come those tears
Here come those tears again
Some other time baby
When I'm strong and feeling fine maybe
When I can look at you without crying
You might look like a friend of mine
But I don't know if I can
Open up enough to let you in
Here come those tears
Here come those tears again
Just walk away
I'm going back inside and turning out those light
And I'll be in the dark but you'll be out of sight

The Springtime For Hitler


The Springtime For Hitler
Composer(s): Mel Brooks
Performer(s): Mel Brooks
and multiple other artists



Germany was having trouble, what a sad, sad story
Needed a new leader to restore its former glory
Where, Oh where was he?
Where could that man be?
We looked around and then we found
The man for you and me
And now it's..

Springtime for Hitler and Germany
Deutschland is happy and gay
We're marching to a faster pace
Look out, here comes the master race

Springtime for Hitler and Germany
Winter for Poland and France
Springtime for Hitler and Germany
Come on, Germans, go into your dance

I was born in Dusseldorf, and that is why they call me Rolf
Don't be stupid, be a smarty, come and join the Nazi party

Springtime for Hitler and Germany
Goosestep's the new step today
bombs falling from the skies again
Deutschland is on the rise again

Springtime for Hitler and Germany
Uboats are sailing once more

Springtime for Hitler and Germany
Means that soon we'll be going
We've got to be going
You know we'll be going to War!

Here But I'm Gone


Here But I'm Gone
Composer(s): Marqueze Etheridge; Andrea Martin; Ivan Matias;
Curtis Mayfield; Organized Noize
Performer(s): Curtis Mayfield



How did I get so far gone
Where do I belong
And where in the world did I ever go wrong
If I took the time to replace
What my mind erased
I still feel as if I'm here but I'm gone
Porched up in a rocking-chair
With my feet all bare
Rolling my blunt in a cigar wrap
Live an adolescent mind
never do take the time
Waiting for my high, quiet as it's kept
How did I get so far gone
Where do I belong
And where in the world did I ever go wrong
If I took the time to replace
What my mind erased
I still feel as if I'm here but I'm gone
Mama told me I was best
Argue and punch in my chest
Son now be strong, let me take you home
I'd see in her eyes so sincere
Screaming, what got me here
Standing in the world and with my mind all blown
How did I get so far gone
Where do I belong
And where in the world did I ever go wrong
If I took the time to replace
What my mind erased
I still feel as if I'm here but I'm gone
How did I get so far gone
Where do I belong
And where in the world did I ever go wrong
If I took the time to replace
What my mind erased
I still feel as if I'm here but I'm gone
I do nothing but waste all my time
Leaving the world behind
Smoking my crack just to keep me high
Around the boys I play my part rough
Keep myself tough enough
Never to cry
Don't really want to die
How did I get so far gone
Where do I belong
And where in the world did I ever go wrong
If I took the time to replace
What my mind erased
I still feel as if I'm here but I'm gone
How did I get so far gone
Where do I belong
And where in the world did I ever go wrong
If I took the time to replace
What my mind erased
I still feel as if I'm here but I'm gone

Here Again


Here Again
Composer(s): Geddy Lee; Alex Lifeson
Performer(s): Rush; Joe Harvard Band



I said I played this song so many times before
That the melody keeps repeating
Growing new ideas, flowing chords and notes
Like a mountain river bleeding

Well, I say as I look back at all the thoughts I've had
They reflect just what I'm learning
Yes, you know that the hardest part, yes, I say it is to stay on top
On top of a world forever churning

Well, you say you can laugh, but I can see that your eyes are glass
Well, do you see, can't you see, what I'm feeling?
Yes, I've seen your face before
Why, I've seen it everywhere
Showing up to me without a scent revealing

Well, I said will it ever change?
Will it stay the same?
I'd surely like to know before it's over
Well, I said I played some
I said it won't be long
Won't be long before I stop and play it over

You know I've, I've seen your face before
Is it ever gonna, ever gonna change again?
Oh, oh, I've, I've been in one place too long
Is it ever gonna, ever gonna change again?

Du Bist


Du Bist
First performance by: Tie-Break - 2004



Diese Stille, die ich hab, immer wenn du bei mir bist
Diese pure Fantasie, diese Kraft, die du nur gibst
Diese kleinen Glücksmomente, die du mir so zahlreich gibst
Immer fehlen dann die Worte, weil es ohne dich nichts gibt

Wenn du traurig bist, dann wein ich mit dir mit
Wenn du schläfst, dann träum ich mit dir mit

Du bist das Lieben, das ich lieb
Du hast das Lachen, das ich brauch
Du bist der Stern am Sternenzelt
Und was ich sonst noch alles brauch
Das bist du auch

Du bist ein Wahnsinns-Optimist, für diese Grenzen unbekannt
Für dich ist jeder Wunsch ein Ziel und meine Träume werden wahr

Wenn du traurig bist, dann wein ich mit dir mit
Wenn du schläfst, dann träum ich mit dir mit

Du bist das Lieben, das ich lieb
Du hast das Lachen, das ich brauch
Du bist der Stern am Sternenzelt
Und alles andere Schöne auch
Du bist die Kraft, die mich umgibt
Du bist die Wärme, bist das Licht
Und was ich sonst noch alles brauch
Das bist du auch

Die Luft, die mir den Atem gibt
Das Wunder, das man Leben nennt
Das Wasser, das sich nicht verdunst
Alles in einem, das bist du

Du bist das Lieben, das ich lieb
Du hast das Lachen, das ich brauch
Du bist der Stern am Sternenzelt
Und alles andere Schöne auch
Du bist die Kraft, die mich umgibt
Du bist die Wärme, bist das Licht
Und was ich sonst noch alles brauch
Das bist du auch

Here & Now


Here & Now
Composer(s): Steve Vai
Performer(s): Steve Vai



Here we stand, as time keeps turning near and far, the fires are burning
Victory, the endless passion, for a cause, we will take an action

I'm not a savior, I'm not a king, there's only the voice in your head
But I feel your anger, I speak your peace, freedom time is here

So are you ready for the here and now

Sacrifice, the soul keeps baring, bring new life to a world worth sparing

I'm not a prophet, I'm not a prince, the ego dies with the flesh
You are the garden, I am the seed, harvest time is here

But tell me are you ready for the here and now

Courage, sacrifice, victory, freedom

One for all, time is fleeting, hear the call, our world is bleeding

There are no saviors, there are no kings, the power lies in your hands
So, you be the fire, the light without heat, precious time is here

So tell me are you ready for the here and now, so tell me are you ready
Are you ready for the here and now, so tell me are you ready
Are you ready for the here and now, so tell me are you ready

Spring, Spring, Spring


Spring, Spring, Spring
Composer(s): Johnny Mercer - Gene de Paul
Performer(s): Johnny Mercer & Gene DePaul
and multiple other artists



Caleb:
Oh, the barnyard is busy in a regular tizzy
And the obvious reason is because of the season
Ma Nature's lyrical, with her yearly miracle
Spring, Spring, Spring

Benjamin:
All the hen-folk are hatchin'
While their men-folk are scrathin'
To ensure the survival of each brand new arrival

Dorcas:
Each nest is twitterin'
They're all baby-sitterin'
Spring, Spring, Spring

Frank:
It's a beehive of buddin' son and daughter life
Every family has plans in view
Even down in the brook the underwater life
Is forever blowin' bubbles too

Liza:
Every field wears a bonnet
With some spring daisies on it
Even birds of a feather show their clothes off together

Ephraim:
Sun's gettin' shinery, to spotlight the finery

Liza:
Spring, Spring, Spring

Gideon:
From his eerie, the eagle with his eagle eye
Gazes down across his eagle beak
And a'fixin' his lady with the legal eye
Screams "suppose we fix the date this week!"

Caleb & Ruth With Daniel & Martha:
Yes, siree, spring disposes
That it's all one supposes
It's a real bed of roses
Waggin' tails, rubbin' noses

All Brothers (Except Ephraim) & All Brides:
Each day is Mother's Day
The next is some other's day
When all is King .........

Here


Here ((Adapted from: Caro Nome (Maria Callas)) Composer(s): Giuseppe Verdi - Dorcas Cochran - Harold Grant Performer(s): Tony Martin



Here in this enchanted place
Here enclosed in your embrace
Here with you so near to me
Here is where I want to be

The world outside may be thrilled by
The treasures that people buy for gold
But I would rather be thrilled by
The treasures that I alone can hold

Here beside the warmth of you
Here within a dream for two
Here for all eternity
Here is where I want to be

(The world outside may be thrilled by
The treasures that people buy for gold)
But I would rather be thrilled by
The treasures that I alone can hold

Here beside the warmth of you
Here within a dream for two
Here for all eternity
Here is where I want to be

Para Llenarme De Ti


Para Llenarme De Ti
First performance by: Ramón - 2004



Se quedó llorando
llorando su pena
y bien sabe que es por ti
hoy su condena

Yo la quise tanto
era la sangre en mis venas
sin saber que eran de otro
sus lunas llenas

Y entre tu amor y su dolor
hay un lamento
me quemo a fuego lento
me quemo a fuego lento
pero mi pecho dijo adiós
y ahora de nuevo brilla el sol
porque tú le has dado fuego a mi corazón

Hoy me quedé vacío para llenarme de ti
mi refugio será tu cuerpo
y mi tierra tu vientre de trigo en flor

Hoy me quedé vacío para llenarme de ti
y mi caricia será tu aliento
y mi bandera la luz de tu dulce amor

Yo te voy a amar hasta el final
Yo te voy a dar todito mi amor
Y yo te voy a dar toda mi piel y mi vida
Todo por este amor por tu amor

Y yo te voy a amar te voy a amar sin medida
Y yo te voy a dar
Yo me juego hasta la vida por este amor, por este amor

Hoy es tan lejana
como huella en la arena
su recuerdo sabe a sal
y a hierbabuena

Tú me das la calma
en las noches de entrega
y nadie mas podrá borrar
tu piel de seda

Y entre tu amor y su dolor
hay un lamento
me quemo a fuego lento
me quemo a fuego lento
pero mi pecho dijo adiós
y ahora de nuevo brilla el sol
porque tú le has dado fuego a mi corazón

Hoy me quedé vacío para llenarme de ti
mi refugio será tu cuerpo
y mi tierra tu vientre de trigo en flor

Hoy me quedé vacío para llenarme de ti
y mi caricia será tu aliento
y mi bandera la luz de tu dulce amor

Yo te voy a amar te voy a amar sin medida
Yo te voy a dar para toda la vida
Yo te voy a dar todo lo que soy, todo por este amor
Yo te voy a amar te voy a dar
Yo te voy a amar todo por este amor
Yo te voy a amar yo te voy a amar
Yo te voy a dar
porque tú le has dado fuego a mi corazón

Her Town Too


Her Town Too
Composer(s): James Taylor; John David Souther; Waddy Wachtel
Performer(s): James Taylor



She's been afraid to go out
She's afraid of the knock on her door
There's always a shade of a doubt
She can never be sure
Who comes to call
Maybe the friend of a friend of a friend
Anyone at all
Anything but nothing again

It used to be her town
It used to be her town too
It used to be her town
It used to be her town too

Seems like even her old girlfriends
Might be talking her down
She's got her name on the grapevine
Running up and down the telephone line
Talking 'bout
Someone said, someone said
Something 'bout something else
Someone might have said about her
She always figured that they were her friends
But maybe they can live without her

It used to be her town
It used to be her town too
It used to be her town
It used to be her town too

Well people got used to seeing them both together
But now he's gone and life goes on
Nothing lasts forever, oh no
She gets the house and the garden
He gets the boys in the band
Some of them his friends
Some of them her friends
Some of them understand
Lord knows that this is just a small town city
Yes and everyone can see you fall
It's got nothing to do with pity
I just wanted to give you a call

It used to be your town
It used to be my town too
You never know till at all falls down
Somebody loves you
Somebody loves you

Spring Will Be A Little Late This Year


Spring Will Be A Little Late This Year
Composer(s): Frank Loesser
First performance/First recording by: Deanna Durbin/Percy Faith - 1944
Covered by multiple other artists



January and Februay were never so empty and grey
Tragic'lly I feel like crying
Without you, my darling, I'm dying
But let's rather put it this way

Spring will be a little late this year
A little late arriving in my lonely world over here
For you have left me and where is our April of old
You have left me and Winter continues cold

As if to say.......
Spring will be a little slow to start
A little slow reviving music it made in my heart
Yes, time heals all things, so I needn't cling to this fear
It's merely that Spring will be a little late this year

Her Story


Her Story
Composer(s): General; Strike; Goldman;
Solomon; David Cunningham
Performer(s): The Flying Lizards



Knights in shiny armour
Always takes the key
History, history, hypocricy
But you can still make money
By singing sweet songs of love

(chorus):
I own you
You don't own me
You are my territory
This is a love song
This is a love song

I blame our books
I blame the TV
I blame top twenty for my jealousy
But you can still make money
By singing sweet songs of love

First performance by: Karmen - 2003



It was a warm midsummer night
He just came, made me feel alright
For one look (Yeah, he's got the look)
For one touch (She really wanted him so much)
Then he grabbed his old guitar, began to play

He sang to me: "Nana nanana"
So naturally it set my heart on fire
He truly was my one desire
Oh baby, how he was, nana nanana

He sang to me: "Nana nanana"
My God, he couldn't get me any higher
Was not supposed to be a liar
But babe, that's what he was, nana nanana

What a warm midsummer night
I just wanted him to hold me real tight
For one look (Yeah, he's got the look)
For one touch (She really wanted him so much)
Then he grabbed his old guitar, began to play

He sang to me: "Nana nanana"
So naturally it set my heart on fire
He truly was my one desire
Oh baby, how he was, nana nanana

He sang to me: "Nana nanana"
My God, he couldn't get me any higher
Was not supposed to be a liar
But babe, that's what he was, nana nanana

For one look, for one touch
Then he grabbed his old guitar, began to play

He sang to me: "Nanana"
He sang to me: "Nana nanana"
So naturally it set my heart on fire
He truly was my one desire
Oh baby, how he was, nana nanana

He sang to me: "Nana nanana"
My God, he couldn't get me any higher
Was not supposed to be a liar

Was not supposed to be a liar

Spring Vacation


Spring Vacation
Composer(s): Black Oak Arkansas
Performer(s): Black Oak Arkansas



Spring days to summer days
the heat wave is here
let's run free you and me
it's that time of the year

Birds swoon and flowers bloom
it's time to mate if it ain't too late
on summer beaches women teach us
that in heat we all relate, all relate

Less clothes on women
from the warm skies of heaven
the season of creation
comes with spring vacation

Clubs are rockin', everybodies hoppin'
there are parties all over town
don't matter who you are, if you haven't got a car
you can hitch to get around - get around

Get out of the house have some fun
burn your skin in the summer sun
I'm happy now that winter's done
cause now I'm free, free to run

Less clothes on women
from the warm skies of heaven
the season of creation
comes with spring vacation

I tell ya that there's much anticipation
yes for nature's chain reaction
and it comes with spring vacation
all across the nation

Her Favorite Style


Her Favorite Style
Composer(s): Doug Ingle
Performer(s): Iron Butterfly



Exciting were her eyes
And refreshing was her smile

So loving was her attitude she maintained all the while

She reaped in her softness which created a gentle mood
And if I ever felt hunger, she would hand me a bit of food

Ah true, she was exciting
Refreshing and loving
And still found a way in which she maintained all the while
That was her faith
That was her favorite style
That was her favorite style
