As Curvas Da Estrada De Santos
As Curvas Da Estrada De Santos
Composer(s): Roberto Carlos - Erasmo Carlos
Performer(s): Elis Regina
Se você pretende saber quem eu sou
Eu posso lhe dizer
Entre no meu carro na estrada de Santos
E você vai me conhecer
Você vai pensar que eu não gosto nem mesmo de mim
E que na minha idade só a velocidade
Anda junto a mim
Só ando sozinho
E no meu caminho o tempo é cada vez menor
Preciso de ajuda
Por favor me acuda
Eu vivo muito só
Se acaso numa curva eu me lembro do meu mundo
Eu piso mais fundo
Corrijo num segundo
Não posso parar
Eu prefiro as curvas da estrada de Santos
Onde eu tento esquecer
Um amor que eu tive
E vi pelo espelho na distância se perder
Mas se o amor que eu perdi eu novamente encontrar
As curvas se acabam
E na estrada de Santos não vou mais passar

Do it while your soul's still burnin'
You know I'll be yearnin' away

Tell her just how much you love her
And that no other could do what she does to you
Cause if you take your time
You're gonna find you blew it
Go to it and do it
Yeah do it, yeah do it, do it

Ilusão
Ilusão
Veja as coisas como elas são
A carroça
A dama
O louco
O trunfo
A mão
O enforcado
A dançarina
Numa cortina
O encarnado
A dançarina, o encantado
O encarnado numa cortina
O enforcado
Ilusão
Ilusão
Veja as coisas como elas são
O curinga
A noiva
O noivo
O sim
O não
O prateado
O cavaleiro
No seu espelho
Desfigurado
O cavaleiro, o prateado
Do outro lado do seu espelho
Desfigurado
Ilusão
Ilusão
Veja as coisas como elas são
A fortuna
A roda
O raio
A imensidão
O estrelado
O obscuro
O seu
Embaralhado

Do I Worry?
Do I Worry?
Composer(s): Stanley Cowan - Bobby Worth
Performer(s): The Ink Spots
Do I worry cause you're stepping out
Do I worry cause you got me in doubt
Though your kisses aren't right, do I give a bag of beans
Do I stay home every night and read my magazine
Am I frantic, cause we lost that spark
Is there panic when it starts turning dark
And when evening shadows creep, do I loose any sleep over you
Do I worry, you can bet your life I do
Do I worry when the iceman calls
Do I worry if Niagra Falls
Though you treat me just like dirt
You think I give a snap
Are my feelings really hurt
When you're sitting in somebody else's lap
Am I curious when the gossip flies
Am I furious bout your little white lies
And when all our evenings end
Cause you got a sick friend that needs you
Do I worry, honey, you know dog gone well I do
Am I frantic, cause we've lost that spark
Is there panic when it starts turning dark
And when evening shadows creep
Do I lose any sleep over you
Do I worry, you can bet your life, I do

As Always You Were Wrong Again
As Always You Were Wrong Again
Performer(s): UB40
We'll raise the price of parking fines
A boost for the economy
If that don't work we close the mines
And starve the poor of industry
We proved again we rule the waves
A blow for white democracy
That Britains never shall be slaves
So long as they agree with me
We'll close the roads, divide the land
Put out the rage that burns within
Break the link of dirty hands
At any cost we'll always win
Keep them poor and wanting more
Deprive them of their basic rights
The hunger banging at their door
Will take away their will to fight
As always you were wrong again
To us a little seems a lot
Don't turn your back on desperate men
'Cause we can see how much you've got

(Do I Figure) In Your Life?
(Do I Figure) In Your Life?
Composer(s): Pete Dello
First release by: Honeybus - 1967
Covered by multiple other artists
Hey there, what you gonna do now?
You made yourself some new friends
Knocking around with all those wide people
They make me nervous
When the things they say cut me like a knife
Do I still figure in your life?
Hey now, I hardly know your face
It's got a brand new look about it
Hard to trace the tender way you look
The way you smile
To think that I once took you for my wife
Do I still figure in your life?
Do I still figure in your life?
You say hello - say hello
But I think you want to go - I think you got to go
To think that I once took you for my wife
Do I still figure in your life?
Do I still figure in your life? Do I?
Do I still figure in your life? Do I?
Do I still figure in your life? Do I?
Do I still figure in your life?

As Always I Remain
As Always I Remain
Performer(s): Night Ranger
Here I am
My heart in a sling
Holding on to memories
Wondering what might have been
There you are
Lost in a dream
Full of life yet loneliness
Has caused you to bleed
I know
Where there's room enough for two
Take a trip to where we've been
The water's hushed underneath thge bridge... again
As always I remain
So where are we now
Life is just a daisy chain
Your innocence my lost refrain
Where are we now
Never said you'd stay the same
As always I remain
Sudden call
It's the end of the line
Or is it just the start of something
Maybe... we'll see
Where will you go
And who will you be
Me I'll just be singing songs
Crossing fingers
There's always something going on
As always I remain
As always I remain
So where are we now
Life is just a daisy chain
Your innocence my lost refrain
Where are we now
Never said you'd stay the same
As always I remain
I must admit I'm an untimely man
Appearing to calloused to all
There's a right way a wrong way
As always I will
Remain on this road right or wrong
So where are we now
Life is just a daisy chain
Your innocence my lost refrain
Where are we now
Never said you'd stay the same
As always I remain
As always I remain

First release by: The Ronettes - 1964
Covered by multiple other artists
Do I want you for my baby?
Do I want you by my side?
Do I wanna run & kiss your lips
And say you're my lovin' guy?
Oh oh oh (oh oh) oh oh oh (oh oh oh)
(Do I love you? Yes I love you)
Do I need your arms around me?
Do I live my life for you?
Do I always feel so warm each time
I look in your eyes of blue?
Oh oh oh (oh oh) oh oh oh (oh oh oh)
(Do I love you? Yes I love you) oh oh
And do I need you every minute of the day?
And would I die if you should ever go away?
And does it mean so much to feel your tender touch?
Do I love you? Do I love you?
Oh I swear I'm gonna get you
If it takes me all my life
I'll hope & pray & dream & sleep
'Cause I'm gonna be your wife
Oh oh oh (oh oh) oh oh oh (oh oh oh)
(Do I love you? Yes I love you)
(repeat):
(Do I love you? Yes I love you)

As
As
Performer(s): Stevie Wonder
As around the sun the earth knows she's revolving
And the rosebuds know to bloom in early may
Just as hate knows love's the cure
You can rest your mind assure
That I'll be loving you always
As now can't reveal the mystery of tomorrow
But in passing will grow older every day
Just as all that's born is new
You know what I say is true
That I'll be loving you always
(Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky)
Always
(Until the ocean covers every mountain high)
Always
(Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea)
Always
(Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream)
Did you know that true love asks for nothing
No no her acceptance is the way we pay
Did you know that life has given love a guarantee
To last through forever and another day
Just as time knew to move on since the beginning
And the seasons know exactly when to change
Just as kindness knows no shame
Know through all your joy and pain
That I'll be loving you always
As today I know I'm living
But tomorrow could make me the past
But that I mustn't fear
For I'll know deep in my mind
The love of me I've left behind
'Cause I'll be loving you always
(Until the day is night and night becomes the day)
Always
(Until the trees and seas just up and fly away)
Always
(Until the day that eight times eight times eight is four)
Always
(Until the day that is the day that are no more)
Did you know you're loved by somebody
(Until the day the earth starts turnin' right to left)
Always
(Until the earth just for the sun denies itself)
I'll be lovin you forever
(Until dear mother nature says her work is through)
Always
(Until the day that you are me and I am you)
Always
(Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky
Until the ocean severs every mountain high)
Always mm mm
We all know sometimes life hates and troubles
Can make you wish you were born in another time and space
But you can bet your lifetimes that and twice it's double
That God knew exactly where he wanted you to be placed
So make sure when you say you're in it, but not of it
You're not helpin' to make this earth
A place sometimes called hell
Change your words into truths
And then change that truth into love
And maybe our children's grandchildren
And their great grandchildren will tell
I'll be loving you until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky

Do I Love You? (Paul Anka)
Do I Love You?
Composer(s): Paul Anka - Yves Dessca - Alain Joseph Yves Le Govic - Michel Albert Louis Pelay - Maxime Piolot
Performer(s): Paul Anka
and multiple other artists
Beyond the shadow of a dove
As the mighty river flows
As the meadow gaily plays
With the wind of summer days
‘Bout as deep as we can go
From the canyon to the skies
Like a mother as she cares
For the baby that she bears
Do I love you
Don’t you know by now
Do I love you
Must I show you how
Do I love
Must I always say
Do I love
Yes in every way
About as sacred as a hymn
And a bible full of prayers
From a whisper to a roar
Very much and even more
And I shall show it with my eyes
And share it with the night
If in death the good Lord is kind
You’ll be the last thing on my mind
Do I love you
Don’t you know by now
Do I love you
Must I show you how
Do I love
Do I have to say
Do I love
Yes in every way
Do I love you
You should know by now
Do I love you
Must I show you how
Do I love
Do I have to say
Do I love
Yes in every way

Artificial Flowers
Artificial Flowers
Composer(s): Jerry Bock - Sheldon Harnick
Performer(s): Ron Husmann
Alone in the world was poor little Anne
As sweet a young child as you'd find
Her parents had gone to their final reward
Leavin' their baby behind
Did you hear?..........
This poor little child was only nine years of age
When mother and dad went away
Still bravely she worked at the one thing she knew
To earn her few pennies a day
She made artificial flowers, artificial flowers
Flowers for ladies of fashion to wear
She made artificial flowers, you know those artificial flowers
Fashioned from Annie's despair
With paper and shears, with some wire and wax
She made up each tulip and mum
As snowflakes drifted into her tenement room
Her baby little fingers grew numb
From makin' artificial flowers, those artificial flowers
Flowers for ladies of high fashion to wear
She made artificial flowers, artificial flowers
Made from Annie's despair
They found little Annie all covered in ice
Still clutchin' her poor frozen shears
Amidst all the blossoms she had fashioned by hand
And watered with all her young tears
There must be a heaven where little Annie can play
In heavenly gardens and bowers
And instead of a halo she'll wear 'round her head
A garland of genuine flowers
No more artificial flowers
Throw away those artificial flowers
Flowers for ladies of society to wear
Throw away those artificial flowers
Those dumb-dumb flowers
Fashioned from Annie's
Fashioned from Annie's
Despair ...
Give her the real thing!

Do I Love You? (Ethel Merman & Ronald Graham)
Do I Love You?
Composer(s): Cole Porter
First performance by: Ethel Merman & Ronald Graham - 1939
Covered by multiple other artists
After that sweet Summer afternoon
When for the first time I saw you appear
Dreaming of you I composed a tune
So will you listen to it, dear?
Do I love you, do I?
Doesn't one and one make two?
Do I love you, do I?
Does July need a sky of blue?
Would I miss you, would I?
If you ever should go away?
If the sun should desert the day
What would life be?
Will I leave you, never?
Could the ocean leave the shore?
Will I worship you for ever?
Isn't heaven forever more?
Do I love you, do I?
Oh, my dear, it's so easy to see
Don't you know I do?
Don't I show you I do
Just as you love me?
Do I love you, do I?
Doesn't one and one make two?
Do I love you, do I?
Does July need a sky of blue?
Would I miss you, would I?
If you ever should go away?
If the sun should desert the day
What would life be?
Will I leave you, never?
Could the ocean leave the shore?
Will I worship you for ever?
Isn't heaven forever more?
Do I love you, do I?
Oh, my dear, it's so easy to see
Don't you know I do?
Don't I show you I do
Just as you love me?

Artificial Energy
Artificial Energy
Composer(s): McGuinn - Hillman - Clarke
Performer(s): The Byrds
Sitting all alone now
I took my ticket to ride
Just a matter of time now
Tilm I'll be up in the sky
Coming up on me now
I'm king for a night
What's it gonna be now?
How willful things are building insight
Do you think it's really the trip that you seek?
I've got my doubts it's happened to me
Artificial energy
Is racing in my mind
I've got a strange feeling
I'm going to die before my time
'Cause i'm coming down off amphetamines
And I'm in jail 'cause I killed the queen

Do I Hear A Waltz?
Do I Hear A Waltz?
Composer(s): Richard Rodgers - Stephen Sondheim
Performer(s): Sammy Davis Jr.
and multiple other artists
Do I hear a waltz?
Very odd but I hear a waltz
There isn’t a band and I don’t understand it at all
I can’t hear a waltz
Oh my lord, there it goes again
Why is nobody dancing in the street?
Can’t they hear the beat?
Magical, mystical, miracle
Can it be, is it true?
Things are impossibly lyrical
Is it me, no it’s you
I do hear a waltz
I see you and I hear a waltz
It’s what I’ve been waiting for all my life
To hear a waltz
Do I hear a waltz?
La-da-de-da-da
Such lovely Blue Danubey music
How can you be still?
I do hear a waltz
There it goes again
There’s no dancing in the street
Can’t they hear the beat?
Roses are dancing with peonies
Yes it’s true, don’t you see
Everything’s suddenly Viennese
Can’t be you, must be me
Do I hear a waltz?
I want more than to hear a waltz
I want you to share it, but oh my
Do I hear a waltz?

Arthur's Theme (Best That You Can Do)
Arthur's Theme (Best That You Can Do)
((Italian Version: Sogni Proibiti (by Ornella Vanoni) - 2002))
Composer(s): Peter Allen - Burt Bacharach - Carole Bayer Sager - Christopher Cross
First release by: Christopher Cross - 1981
Covered by multiple other artists
Once in your life you find her, someone who turns your heart around
And next thing you know, you're closing down the town
Wake up and it's still with you, even though you left her way across town
You're wondering to yourself, "Hey, what have I found?"
When you get caught between the moon and New York City
I know it's crazy, but it's true
If you get caught between the moon and New York City
The best that you can do, the best that you can do, is fall in love
Arthur, he does as he pleases; all of his life his master's toys
But deep in his heart he's just, he's just a boy
Living his life one day at a time, he's showing himself a really good time
He's laughing about the way they want him to be
When you get caught between the moon and New York City
I know it's crazy, but it's true
If you get caught between the moon and New York City
The best that you can do, the best that you can do, is fall in love
When you get caught between the moon and New York City
I know it's crazy, but it's true
If you get caught between the moon and New York City
The best that you can do, the best that you can do, is fall in love

Do I Have To Come Right Out And Say It
Do I Have To Come Right Out And Say It
Composer(s): Neil Young
Performer(s): Buffalo Springfield
and multiple other artists
Do I have to come right out and say it
Tell you that you look so fine
Do I have to come right out and ask you to be mine
If it was a game I could play it
Trying to make it but I'm losing time
I got to bring you in, you're overworking my mind
Indecision is crowding me
I have no room to spare
And I can't believe she cared
Like a dream she has taken me
And now I don't know where
And a part of me is scared
The part of me I shared
Once before

Composer(s): Peter Allen - Burt Bacharach - Carole Bayer Sager - Christopher Cross - Sergio Bardotti
Performer(s): Ornella Vanoni - 2002
Essere un buon capitano
gli occhi lontani come il mare
con quell'istinto di salpare
Essere tu il vagabondo
senza parenti senza nome
che chissa' come al mondo
ha detto no
Eccoli li' sono i tuoi sogni proibiti
e' una vecchissima fotografia
e a tutti fa ancora sogni proibiti
intanto vola via
intanto non si sa se tornera'
Vivere notti infinite
correre sui cavalli alati
tu la regina dei pirati
essere saggia e avere vent'anni
essere squalo e pescatore
schiava e padrona di ogni amore
Eccoli li' sono i tuoi sogni proibiti
e sei davvero tu nella fotografia
e a tutti fa ancora sogni proibiti
perche' la vita sia
fare due passi nell'eternita'
Essere te ma essere un'altra
essere preda e predatore
luce dell'ombra notte e sole
Eccoli li' sono i tuoi sogni proibiti
e sei davvero tu nella fotografia
e a tutti fa ancora sogni proibiti
e intanto vola via
e intanto vola via
Eccoli li' sono i tuoi sogni proibiti
questa vecchissima fotografia
e a tutti fa ancora sogni proibiti
e intanto vola via
e intanto non si sa se tornera'

Do I Ever Cross Your Mind
Do I Ever Cross Your Mind
Composer(s): Dolly Parton
First release by: Dolly Parton - 1982
Covered by multiple other artists
Oh, sometimes I go walking through fields where we walked
Long ago in the sweet used to be
And the flowers still grow, but they don’t smell as sweet
As they did when you picked them for me
And when I think of you and the love we once knew
How I wish we could go back in time
Do you ever think back on old memories like that
Or do I ever cross your mind
Do you ever wake up lonely in the middle of the night
Because you miss me, do you darling
Oh, and do your memories ever take
You back into another place in time
And do you ever miss the feelings
And the love we shared when you were with me, tell me darling
Or do I ever cross your mind
Oh, how often I wish that again I could kiss
Your sweet lips like I did long ago
And how often I long for those two loving arms
That once held me so gentle and close
And when I think of you and the love we once knew
How I wish we could go back in time
Do you ever think back on old memories like that
Or do I ever cross your mind
