Domani (Julius LaRosa)


Domani (Tomorrow) ((French Version: Domani (Georges Guétarny)) Composer(s): Ulpio Minucci - Tony Velona Performer(s): Julius LaRosa - 1955



Maybe you'll fall in love with me Domani
Maybe tomorrow night the sun will shine
I'll change my name from Johnny to Giovanni
If you will say Domani, you'll be mine

Come to me, Senorina from Italy
Hear my plea and I'll hire the hall
All your Uncles and Aunts
And Ma and Pa and your Paisani
They all agree that we should wed Domani

You are so super duper bravissimo
Don't say no or my poor heart you'll break
'Cause your Uncles and Aunts
And your Ma and Pa and your Paisani
They all agree that we should wed, Domani

Las Flores de la vida que lindas son

Que linda es la vida
que lindo es el amor

Que linda es la vida
que lindo es el amor

Domani (Lucio Dalla)


Domani Composer(s): Lucio Dalla - Laurex Performer(s): Lucio Dalla



Dovevo essere un cretino come te
per stare a bocca aperta ad ascoltarti
parlare tutto il giorno malissimo di te
e la notte uscire fuori per cercarti
lo so perché tu sei dentro di me
e so che tu sei più forte di me
perché ci vuole solo un cretino come me
per stare ancora qui a telefonarti
e a farsi fare tutto il male che mi fai
solo perché mi piace perdonarti
perché tu sei, tu sei dentro di me
e poi tu sei molto più forte di me
E' la verità
ma come si fa
dove saremo io e te
domani domani
saremo ancora così lontani
ci annuseremo da lontano come i cani, i cani
proprio come due bambini io e te, oh oh io e te, oh oh io e te
va bene allora adesso dimmi cosa fai
potremmo fare in modo di incontrarci
basta solo che mi dici stasera dove vai
che ci vediamo chissà se hai il coraggio di guardarmi
perchè, io so che sai che son dentro di te
e oh vedrai son più forte di te
E' la verità
ed ecco come si fa
ecco cosa saremo io e te
domani domani
saremo nuvole nel cielo
così almeno non saremo più lontani lontani
e quando il vento lo vorrà ci incontreremo ci troveremo
io e te domani io e te...........

Atado A Un Sentimiento


Atado A Un Sentimiento
Composer(s): Miguel Mateos
Performer(s): Miguel Mateos



Te quiero, te extraño
nada es igual al ayer
oh oh oh nada, oh no

Te espero, te deseo
como una roca espera al mar
te necesito oh, oh

Y vivo atado
a un sentimiento carnal
atado a tu luna, oh no

Yo puedo tocar el fuego
puedo hasta quemarme entero
no me pidas que te deje de amar

Te llevo clavada
como una espina en mi costado
entrando despacio, oh no

y quiero que sepas
que eso está planeado por amor
un poco de amor, nada más

puedo arrastarme a tu puerta
puedo hacer que estés despierta
las mil y una noches porque estoy
atado a un sentimiento
solo estoy atado a un sentimiento

y vivo atado
a un sentimiento
y vivo atado
a un sentimiento

Dom Har Glömt


Dom Har Glömt
Composer(s): Agnetha Fältskog - Bosse Carlgren
Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog



Äntligen hemma hos mig igen
Efter månader på hotell
Och allt jag har med mig är min värkande kropp
Och en flaska som jag tömt
Jag sjöng mina sånger i parkerna
Och nån enstaka krog nån kväll
Som jag gjort alla år sen mitt namn stod på topp
Men det har dom redan glömt

Dom har glömt, att dom sände mig röda rosor
Dom har glömt, att dom aldrig lät mig gå
Dom har glömt, dom har glömt mig för nån annan
Men hur ska dom förstå
Jag älskar dem ändå
Och jag har inte glömt

Förr var jag van att dom kom till mig
Med en penna och block i hand
Var van att få känna mig betydelsefull
Men nu är den tiden slut
Namnen byts ut på affischerna
Och på plattornas konvolut
Och efter en tid har man glömt vad där stod
Och hur dom som sjöng såg ut

Dom har glömt, att dom sände mig röda rosor
Dom har glömt, att dom aldrig lät mig gå
Dom har glömt, dom har glömt mig för nån annan
Men hur ska dom förstå
Jag älskar dem ändå
Och jag har inte glömt

Äntligen hemma hos mig igen
Lite trött och besviken, men
Så länge jag kan, så länge jag är vid liv
Gör jag om den här turnén
Jag sjöng mina sånger i parkerna
För publiken invid entrén
En underbar stund, men sen gick dom förstås
När det började på scen

Dom har glömt, att dom sände mig röda rosor
Dom har glömt, att dom aldrig lät mig gå
Dom har glömt, dom har glömt mig för nån annan
Men hur ska dom förstå
Jag älskar dem ändå
Och jag har inte glömt

At War With The World


At War With The World
Performer(s): Foreigner



Never had no need
For any military aid
And I never took charge of the light brigade
I got no castle to defend or attack
But still I seem to be picking up flack

I am the captain of this body of mine
I'll send fear into the enemy lines
On the ground, in the air or at sea
They're all pointing a finger at me

I'm at war with the world
That's the way it must be
I'll fight while I can
To put an end to this misery

I'm at war with the world
I'll have to fight to be free
Yes I'm at war with the world
Nobody's capturing me

Never have no need
For any military aid
Never took charge of the light brigade
I got no castle to defend or attack
But still I seem to be picking up flack

War with the world, with the world
I'll have to fight to be be free
Yes I'm at war with the world, with the world
Nobody's capturing me

War with the world
What do they want from me?
War with the world
Why don't they let me be?

Dom De Iludir


Dom De Iludir Composer(s): Caetano Veloso Performer(s): Caetano Veloso and multiple other artists



Não me venha falar na malícia de toda mulher
Cada um sabe a dor e a delícia de ser o que é
Não me olhe como se a polícia andasse atrás de mim
Cale a boca
E não cale na boca notícia ruim
Você sabe explicar
Você sabe entender, tudo bem
Você está
Você é
Você faz
Você quer
Você tem
Você diz a verdade
E a verdade é o seu dom de iludir
Como pode querer que a mulher vá viver sem mentir

When You're Twenty-One


When You're Twenty-One
Composer(s): Claude King
Performer(s): Claude King



As I look around me at unfamiliar faces
My mind goes back to my boyhood days
And the lust and the crazy far off places
Oh the simple country boy to a life of disgrace

I was raised on a farm way down in Louisiana
Down where the sweet magnolias grow
Just me and Mud and mama and papa
Little blue eyed Judy who lived down the road

I got Judy in trouble in the early days of summer
Oh she and mama cried and begged me not to go
Later on someone told me Mud and Judy got married
And they had a little girl with hair shining gold

I drank and I gambled and I knew many women
I lived too fast for a boy just 21
And then one night I shot a man in Reno
The very first time I had ever fired a gun

Mud came to see me last Sunday morning
He said Judy and the baby were waiting outside
His eyes filled with tears when I asked about mama
He said mama's heart's been broken
She just laid down and died

I hear a cell door open, soon it will be over
I'll have to pay for the wrongs I have done
To Mud and Judy and mama and papa
And I'll hope you'll remember this when you're 21
And I'll hope you'll remember this when you're 21

Dolphins


Dolphins Composer(s): Fred Neil First release by: Fred Neil - 1966 Covered by multiple other artists



This old world may never change Not the way it's been And all the ways of war Can't change it back again I've been searching for the dolphins in the sea Sometimes I wonder do you ever think of me I'm not the one to tell this world How to get along I only know that peace will come When all hate is gone I've been searching for the dolphins in the sea Sometimes I wonder do you ever think of me Sometimes I think about Saturday's child And all about the times When we were running wild I've been searching for the dolphins in the sea Sometimes I wonder do you ever think of me This old world may never change This old world may never change

At Trinity Church (I Met My Doom)


At Trinity Church (I Met My Doom)
Composer(s): Fred Gilbert
Performer(s): Tom Costello



Twelve months ago with decent chances
Prospects of success in life
Thru' foolish love of ballroom dances
Trouble came..... I met my wife
Such a noble, buxom creature
She in my eyes then appeared
False she was, though fair of feature
Like to salmon I was speared

She told me her age was five and twenty
Cash in the bank of course she'd plenty
I like a lamb believed it all
I was an M - U - G
At Trinity church I met my doom
Now we live in a top back room
Up to my eyes in debt for renty
That's what she's done for me

In bridal dress with frills and flounces
'Pon my word, she did look fine
Quite sixteen stone and some odd ounces
Weighed then this dear wife of mine
People whispered she had money
Oh! what tales some folks will tell
She was simply sixteen stoney
What a swindle... what a sell

She told me her age was five and twenty
Cash in the bank of course she'd plenty
I like a lamb believed it all
I was an M - U - G
At Trinity church I met my doom
Now we live in a top back room
Up to my eyes in debt for renty
That's what she's done for me

When she confessed I'd scarce believe her
Though at last the truth she told
She hadn't got a bloomin' fiver
She was thirty-six years old
I can only grin and bear it
Poor indeed in my estate
She, poor girl, is forced to share it
Down will drop her mortal weight

She told me her age was five and twenty
Cash in the bank of course she'd plenty
I like a lamb believed it all
I was an M - U - G
At Trinity church I met my doom
Now we live in a top back room
Up to my eyes in debt for renty
That's what she's done for me

Dolores Dream


Dolores Dream
Composer(s): Wayne Shorter - Kurt Elling
Performer(s): Kurt Elling



The white, electric skillet of a day
threatened to sear us all away
fat frying, spluttering - rank Chicago smeltering along
smothered in heavy, wooly sweat
the city knew a sad regret
for staying long in summer's heavy

No escape
Delirious
So I went subterraneous
Maybe I'd dream about Dolores'
kinda' auburn hair & hazel eyes
Looking at her made chills go (indecipherable)
even if she wasn't even there and so I tried
Put Wayne Shorter on to hide
and slept, completely mystified

'Honk!' went a taxi cab outside to remind me night time was dawning
Then Laurie & Guy call -say, 'let's go dancing & romance perchancing
Summer times are sweeter at night
The music is swinging all the night'
I put a bowl of coffee on
I took a hit

What with the day time on the lamb - jumped in my car
Uptown to scram
Popped in a great Von Freeman jam and the coffee hit
Bam!
We hit a Jazz club called, 'The Mill'
Dig it!
My second domicile
We had a great time hanging, until

I saw Dolores sweep into the room
And then my head began to swoon
I got a yen
She came right up to me & when
she spoke my sweat broke
No joke

Then came on the thrills
and came on the chills!
She got me to dance
I took a chance
replying, although she was kinda' shy
I stole a sweet kiss on the sly (to simplify)
And when Dolores sighed a sigh
you know, it got me kinda' high
she hit me right between the eyes!

If there's one girl I've gotta' remember, it's her

At This Moment


At This Moment
Composer(s): Billy Vera
First release by: Billy & The Beaters - 1981



What did you think
I would do At This Moment
When you're standing before me
With tears in your eyes
Trying to tell me that you
Have found you another
And you just don't love me no more

What did you think
I would say At This Moment
When I'm faced with the knowledge
That you just don't love me
Did you think I would curse you
Or say things to hurt you
'Cause you just don't love me no more

Did you think I could hate you
Or raise my hands to you
Now, come on, you know me too well
How could I hurt you
When Darlin' I love you
And you know, I'd never, never hurt you

What do you think
I would give At This Moment
If you'd stay, I'd subtract
Twenty years from my life
I'd fall down on my knees
Kiss the ground that you walk on
If I could just hold you again

Dolores (Tommy Dorsey)


Dolores Composer(s): Frank Loesser - Louis Alter Performer(s): Tommy Dorsey and multiple other artists



How I love the kisses of Dolores
Aye-aye-aye Dolores
Not Marie or Emily or Doris
Only my Dolores

From a balcony above me
She whispers "Love me", then throws a rose
Ah but she is twice as lovely
As the rose she throws

I would die to be with my Dolores
Aye-aye-aye Dolores
I was made to serenade Dolores
Chorus after chorus

Just imagine eyes like moonrise
A voice like music, lips like wine
What a break if I could make Dolores
Mine all mine

I would die to be with my Dolores
Aye-aye-aye Dolores
I was made to serenade Dolores
Chorus after chorus

Just imagine eyes like moonrise
A voice like music, lips like wine
What a break if I could make Dolores
Mine all mine

At The Zoo


At The Zoo
Performer(s): Paul Simon



Someone told me
It's all happening at the zoo
I do believe it
I do believe it's true

It's a light and tumble journey
From the East Side to the park
Just a fine and fancy ramble to the zoo
But you can take a crosstown bus
If it's raining or it's cold
And the animals will love it if you do

Somethin' tells me
It's all happening at the zoo
I do believe it
I do believe it's true

The monkeys stand for honesty
Giraffes are insincere
And the elephants are kindly but they're dumb
Orangutans are skeptical
Of changes in their cages
And the zookeeper is very fond of rum

Zebras are reactionaries
Antelopes are missionaries
Pigeons plot in secrecy
And hamsters turn on frequently
What a gas! You gotta come and see
At the zoo

Dolores (Charles Aznavour)


Dolores Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - Jacques Plante Performer(s): Charles Aznavour



Sans doute je ne serais pas qui je suis
Je ne serais pas où j'en suis
Si je n'avais jamais connu Dolorès

Sans doute je n'aurais jamais réussi
Je n'habiterais pas Passy
Si je n'avais jamais connu Dolorès

Sans doute, je n'avais rien d'un ambitieux
En aurais-je été moins heureux
Si je n'avais jamais connu Dolorès

Pour elle
J'ai su ce que valaient les gens
Pour elle
J'ai su ce que pouvait l'argent
Tout l'argent
Sans doute
Je n'aurais tant de millions
Mais j'aurais quelques illusions
Si je n'avais jamais connu Dolorès

Sans doute me serait-il même arrivé
De passer mon temps à rêver
Si je n'avais jamais connu Dolorès

Sans doute j'aurais vécu simple et normal
Je n'aurais pas fait tant de mal
Si je n'avais jamais connu Dolorès

Pour elle
Je me suis durci jusqu'au cœur
Jusqu'au cœur

Ma route
Va parfois se perdre un instant
Dans quelque coin calme et charmant
Où je parviens à oublier Dolorès

J'écoute
Le chant des oiseaux dans les bois
Et ça me rappelle autrefois
Les merveilleux printemps d'avant Dolorès

Je l'aime
Et depuis qu'elle m'a quittée
C'est d'elle, que je me venge en vérité
Sans pitié
Personne
Ne saura combien j'ai souffert
Je ne suis plus qu'un homme amer
Voilà tout ce qu'a fait de moi Dolorès
Mais si demain je retrouvais Dolorès
Je sais bien que je reprendrais Dolorès

Dolor De Ya No Verte


Dolor De Ya No Verte
Composer(s): G. Curiel
Performer(s): Javier Solís



Dolor de ya no verte
ni de besarte más
Dolor que va en el viento
para mi eterno mal

En mis obscuras noches de soledad
cierro los ojos
rezo tu nombre
y todo sigue igual

Así las horas pasan
y corren los años sin tu luz
Mis brazos antes tuyos
tornáronse en cruz

Ya todo ha concluido con tu final
y hoy tu recuerdo
quema mis ojos
cansados de llorar

Y así las horas pasan
y corren los años sin tu luz
Mis brazos antes tuyos
tornáronse en cruz

Ya todo ha concluido con tu final
y hoy tu recuerdo
quema mis ojos
cansados de llorar

Y hoy tu recuerdo
quema mis ojos
cansados de llorar

Everything's The Same (Ain't Nothing Changed)


Everything's The Same (Ain't Nothing Changed)
Composer(s): Billy Swan
Performer(s): Billy Swan



You went away and left me 'cause you thought you could hurt me
But I've got news for you; I'm still strong and your are wrong
To think you'd leave and I'd turn blue

Everything's the same
there ain't nothin' changed
The sun still shines and the rain still rains
And I'm still me
and you're still you
too
you see

Everything's the same
there ain't nothin' changed

Since you've been gone
I still do what I do
no

I haven't changed a bit; I still eat
I still sleep

I still go to work and when my work-day's done I split

Everything's the same
there ain't nothin' changed ...

Dolly Dagger


Dolly Dagger
Composer(s): Jimi Hendrix
Performer(s): Jimi Hendrix; James Byrd



Here comes Dolly Dagger
Her love's so heavy, she's gonna make you stagger
Dolly Dagger, she drinks her blood from a jagged edge
Been riding broom sticks since she was 15
Blowing out all the other witches on the scene

She got a bull whip just as long as your life
Her tongue can ever scratch the soul of the devil's wife
Well I see her in action at the players choise
Turning all the love men into doughnut boys

Hey, red hot Momma step aside
This chik's gonna turn you to a block of ice - look out!
Look at burned out superman
Trying to shoot his dust on the sun
Captain Coconut is dead on the run
The words of love, do they ever touch Dolly Brown
Better get some highway and clear out of town

(She ain't satisfied 'til she gets what she's after
She drinks her blood from a jagged edge
You better watch out, baby, here comes your master)

At The Scene


At The Scene
Composer(s): Dave Clark - Lenny Davidson
Performer(s): The Dave Clark Five



Everyone who is lonely
I've got a place for you
Where the music play-ay-ay-ay-ays
Till way past two

Come along now, let's go down to the scene
(well, what's it like now)
Meet me down at the scene
(well, tell me more, tell me more)
You'll live just like a queen
When you're down at the scene

There's no need to be fancy
No one there will stare
Dress in all the things you usually do
There's no need to care

Come along now, let's go down to the scene
(all right, all right)
Meet me down at the scene
(I'm comin', I'm comin')
You'll live just like a queen
When you're down at the scene

Everyone who is lonely
I've got a place for you
Where the music play-ay-ay-ay-ays
Till way past two

Come along now, let's go down to the scene
(I'm comin', I'm comin')
Meet me down at the scene
(all right, all right)
You'll live just like a queen
When you're down at the scene
When you're down at the scene
When you're down at the scene
