Moon Shadow


Moon Shadow
Composer(s): Cat Stevens
Originally performed by: Cat Stevens
Covered by various other artists



Yes I'm bein' followed by a moon shadow
Moon shadow, moon shadow
Leapin' and hoppin' on a moon shadow
Moon shadow, moon shadow

And if I ever lose my hands
Lose my plough, lose my land
Oh if I ever lose my hands
Oh if
I won't have to work no more

And if I ever lose my eyes
If my colors all run dry
Yes if I ever lose my eyes
Oh if
I won't have to cry no more

Yes I'm bein' followed by a moon shadow
Moon shadow, moon shadow
Leapin' and hoppin' on a moon shadow
Moon shadow, moon shadow

And if I ever lose my legs
I won't moan and I won't beg
Oh if I ever lose my legs
Oh if
I won't have to walk no more

And if I ever lose my mouth
All my teeth, North and South
Oh if I ever lose my mouth
Oh if
I won't have to talk

"Did it take long to find me?"
I asked the faithful light
"Did it take long to find me?
And are you gonna stay the night?"

I'm bein' followed by a moon shadow
Moon shadow, moon shadow
Leapin' and hoppin' on a moon shadow
Moon shadow, moon shadow

Moon shadow, moon shadow
Moon shadow, moon shadow

Luna, Luna


Luna, Luna
Composer(s): Agustín Lara
Performer(s): Javier Solís



Yo quisiera contar una historia de amor
la historia de la luna que nos hace soñar

Luna, luna, luna mi compañera fiel
luna, luna, luna esfera de papel

Mira lunita querida mi vida no es vida
si está sin amor
Piensa que tú en el olvido
también has sufrido
desdenes del sol

Luna, luna, luna en donde está mi amor

Mira lunita querida mi vida no es vida
si está sin amor
Piensa que tú en el olvido
también has sufrido
desdenes del sol

Luna, luna, luna en donde está mi amor

Luna Tucumana


Luna Tucumana
Composer(s): Atahualpa Yupanqui
Performer(s): Mercedes Sosa
and multiple other artists



Yo no le canto a la luna
porque alumbra y nada más
le canto porque ella sabe
de mi largo caminar
Ay lunita tucumana!
tamborcito calchaquí
compañera de los gauchos
en las sendas de Tafí

Perdido en las cerrazones
¿quién sabe, vidita, por dónde andaré?
Mas cuando salga la luna
cantaré, cantaré
a mi Tucumán querido
cantaré, cantaré, cantaré

Con esperanza o con pena
en los campos de Acheral
yo he visto a la luna buena
besando el cañaveral

En algo nos parecemos
luna de la soledad
yo voy andando y cantando
que es mi modo de alumbrar

Perdido en las cerrazones ...

Moon River


Moon River
Italian Title: Colazione Da Tiffany
Composer(s): Johnny Mercer; Henry Mancini
Originally performed by: Henry Mancini
Covered by various other artists



Moon River, wider than a mile
I'm crossin' you in style someday
Old dream maker, you heartbreaker
Wherever you're goin', I'm goin' your way
Two drifters, off to see the world
There's such a lot of world to see
We're after the same rainbow's end
Waitin' round the bend
My huckleberry friend
Moon River and me

Luna Rossa (Blushing Moon)


Luna Rossa (Blushing Moon)
Composer(s): Kermit Goell
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra



Oh luna rossa, you're out tonight
A moon of red in a sky of white
Because I'm selling a lie tonight
And blushing moon, you know of it
Oh luna rossa, you're smart at love
You know I'm playing the part of love
I try my hand in the art of love
Just for the thrill and glow of it
Luna rossa, forgive me, luna rossa
For the vows I made tonight that are untrue
What else am I to do?
But blushing moon, there's a reason why
The love I longed for has passed me by
And so I play at the game but I
I am lonely, luna rossa
Luna rossa, forgive me, luna rossa
For the vows I made tonight that are untrue
What else am I to do?
But blushing moon, there's a reason why
The love I longed for has passed me by
And so I play at the game but I
I am lonely, luna rossa
I am lonely, luna rossa

Moon Over Miami


Moon Over Miami
Composer(s): Edgar Leslie; Joe Burke
Performer(s): Eddy Duchin
and various other artists



Moon over Miami
Shine on my love and me
So we can stroll beside the roll
Of the rolling sea

Moon over Miami
Shine on as we begin
A dream or two that may come true
When the tide comes in

Hark to the song of the smiling troubadours
Hark to the throbbing guitars
Hear how the waves offer thunderous applause
After each song to the stars

Moon over Miami
You know we're waiting for
A little love, a little kiss
On Miami shore

Luna Rossa


Luna Rossa
Composer(s): V. De Crescenzo - Nino Rota - A. Vian
Performer(s): Caetano Veloso



Vaco distrattamente abbandunato ...
Ll'uocchie sott''o cappiello annascunnute
mane 'int''a sacca e bávero aizato ...
Vaco siscanno ê stelle ca só' asciute ...

Fischio ...

E 'a luna rossa mme parla 'e te
Io lle domando si aspiette a me
e mme risponne: "Si 'o vvuó' sapé
ccá nun ce sta nisciuna ..."
E i' chiammo 'o nomme pe' te vedé
ma, tutt''a gente ca parla 'e te
risponne: "E' tarde che vuó' sapé?!
Ccá nun ce sta nisciuna! ..."

Luna rossa
chi mme sarrá sincera?
Luna rossa
se n'è ghiuta ll'ata sera
senza mme vedé ...

E io dico ancora ch'aspetta a me
for''o barcone stanott'ê ttre
e prega 'e Sante pe' mme vedé ...
Ma nun ce sta nisciuna ...

Mille e cchiù appuntamente aggio tenuto ...
Tante e cchiù sigarette aggio appicciato ...
Tanta tazze 'e café mme só' bevuto ...
Mille vucchelle amare aggio vasato ...

Fischio ...

E 'a luna rossa mme parla 'e te

Moon Over Bourbon Street


Moon Over Bourbon Street
Composer(s): Sting
Performer(s): Sting
and various other artists



There's a moon over Bourbon Street tonight
I see faces as they pass beneath the pale lamplight
I've no choice but to follow that call
The bright lights, the people, and the moon and all
I pray everyday to be strong
For I know what I do must be wrong
Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet
While there's a moon over Bourbon Street

It was many years ago that I became what I am
I was trapped in this life like an innocent lamb
Now I can never show my face at noon
And you'll only see me walking by the light of the moon
The brim of my hat hides the eye of a beast
I've the face of a sinner but the hands of a priest
Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet
While there's a moon over Bourbon Street

She walks everyday through the streets of New Orleans
She's innocent and young from a family of means
I have stood many times outside her window at night
To struggle with my instinct in the pale moonlight
How could I be this way when I pray to god above
I must love what I destroy and destroy the thing I love
Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet
While there's a moon over Bourbon Street

Luna Park


Luna Park
Composer(s): Louis Gasté - Jean Guigo
Performer(s): Yves Montand



Dans mon usine de Puteaux
On peut dire qu' j' ai le fin boulot
Ça f' sait bien trois cent soixante cinq jours de long
Que j' vissais toujours le même sacré petIt boulon
Mais celà ne m' empêche pas de chanter
Hidlele hidlele hideledele
Dès que j' ai ma petite heure de liberté
Hidlele hidlele hideledele
Je vais tout droit à Luna Park
Dans le jour cru des lampes à arcs
Sur la chenille
Je vois des filles
Je vois les filles et leurs dessous
En soie en fil ou en pilou
Et le pick-up chante comme moi
HidIele hidlele hideledele hey!
Hidlele hidlele hideledele
Le travail c' est ahurissant
Pour le corps c' est bien salissant
Quand je touche ma paye vers la fin du mois
Je sais qu' à Puteaux y' a des gars plus riches que moi
Mais celà ne m' empêche pas de chanter
Hidlele hidlele hideledele
Luna-Park est ma réserve de gaité
Hidlete hidlele hideledele
À tous les stands je suis salué
Des patrons et des habitués
Garçons et filles
C' est ma famille
Partout ailleurs je n' suis rien
À Luna Park je suis quelqu' un
Vive Luna Park et vive la joie
Feledlele delele fleptogo

Moon on my pillow tonight
Somewhere you'll see the one I'm dreaming of

May heaven keep him well while we're apart
Oh moon on my pillow tonight
Watch over him till we're together again

Now You Want To Be Loved


Now You Want To Be Loved ((French Version: Des Ronds Dans L'eau (Françoise Hardy)) Composer(s): Pierre Barouh - Raymond Le Sénéchal - Sonny Miller Performer(s): Liesbeth List



Now you want to be loved
yet you want to be free
Your world is full of dreams
of what you hoped would be

You would never be lost
and where love was concerned
your rivers would be crossed
and bridges could be burned

It was great to be free
all the world to explore
and you would hold the key
to open any door

Now you want to be loved
there’s no peace in your mind
for suddenly you grow
and suddenly you find
that the world is not a dream
and this you have to learn
a very precious love
is something you must earn

Is your heart still as sure
as it was in your dream?
Are you thoughts still as pure
and not what they may seem?

Were you always the same
taking others for fools?
Are you playing a game
and making up the rules?

Do you cherish your love
or regret with a sigh?
Will you laugh at the world
as each day passes by?

Now you want to be loved
yet you want to be free
but love is not a game
this can never be

You’re sincere you believe
to yourself you are true
but what can you achieve
when miracles are few?

Comes a time you awake
to the way you must live
for those who love to take
sometimes have got to give

If you want to be loved
you can never be free
so face up to the truth
and someday you may see
if you open your heart
and your heart can be true
as you want to be loved
your love will come to you

Luna Llena De Agua


Luna Llena De Agua
Performer(s): Pedro Aznar



Luna llena de agua
deja al sol llegar
Que tu aureola caiga
caiga sobre el mar

Esas nubes cargan
tanta soledad
La tristeza larga
lágrimas de sal

Luna obnubilada
de tanto rondar y andar y andar
Es la madrugada
lárgate a llorar

Luna llena de agua
dónde está tu amor
que incendió tu enagua
y no te dio calor

En tu fría fragua
escondió la luz
Sacrificio en vano
peces en la cruz

Luna llena de agua
subo para ver
cuántos siglos faltan
para amanecer
para amanecer

Moon Love


Moon Love
Composer(s): André Kostelanetz; Mack David; Mack Davis
Performer(s): Al Donohue



Will this be moon love
Nothing but moon love
Will you be gone when the dawn
comes stealing through?
Are these just moon dreams
Grand while the moon beams
But when the moon fades away
Will my dreams come true?
Much as I love you
Don't let me love you
If it must pay for your kiss
with lonely tears
Say it's not moon love
Tell me it's true love
Say you'll be mine
When the moon disappears

Luna De Otoño


Luna De Otoño
Composer(s): Miguel Gallardo
Performer(s): Miguel Gallardo



Luna de otoño, dulce mirada
dime que escondes, tras esa sonrisa
vacía y callada
Quizá una pena, que hirió tu alma
por eso vuelas, perdida en la noche
queriendo olvidarla
A través de ti, descubro mi vida
también llevo escrita una pena en el corazón
a través de ti, me acuerdo de ella
por eso regreso en las noches buscando su amor
A través de ti
Porque andas triste, luna de plata
si las estrellas, perfuman la noche
como rosas blancas
Quiero decirte, adiós para siempre
porque cansado, me marcho a otra parte
detrás de otra suerte
A través de ti, descubro mi vida
también llevo escrita una pena en el corazón
a través de ti, me acuerdo de ella
por eso regreso en las noches buscando su amor
Pero hoy me voy
Pero hoy me voy
Pero hoy me voy

Moon Country


Moon Country
Composer(s): Johnny Mercer; Hoagy Carmichael
Performer(s): Hoagy Carmichael
and various other artists



I long for that moon country
That possum and coon country
That sycamore heaven back south
I’ll lose my mind till I get there
I long for that old country
That good for the soul country
With folk cooking things that melt in your mouth
Mm-mm when my cousin Cindy Lou
Plays a twilight hymn to you
She makes that old piano
Sound exactly like brand new
I long for that moon country
That’s where I should be
‘cause that old moon country is home to me

Sò accumparute 'e stelle a primma sera

Adduorme a nenna mia ca sta scetata
E falla 'nnamura'pe na bucia

Famme passa'sti pene 'e gelusia
E fa ca nena fosse tutta 'a mia

Tu, luna luna tu, luna caprese

Ohie'cu me cantate 'sta canzone
Vuie ca sufrite 'e pene dell 'ammore
Capri ve po' ncanta'cu na parola

Moon Above Malaya


Moon Above Malaya
Composer(s): Jimmy Kennedy; John Turner
Performer(s): Eve Boswell
and various other artists



Moon above Malaya
Shine down on my sweetheart
Sing song girl of the eastern star
Down in a town by a native bazaar
She's all that I adore
From here to Singapore

Soon she'll hear me calling
From my drifting sampan
Then we'll dream in a bamboo hut
No one to care if I'm kissing her
But the moon above Malaya

Soon she'll hear me calling
From my drifting sampan
Then we'll dream in a bamboo hut
No one to care if I'm kissing her
But the moon above Malaya

Moon above Malaya

Luna Caprese (Dalida)


Luna Caprese
((Italian Version: Luna Caprese (Peppino Di Capri))
Composer(s): Cesare Augusto - Enrico Ricciard - G. Gosset - J. Grelbin
Performer(s): Dalida



Ohé cumme cantate 'sta canzone
Vuie ça suffrite 'e pene de l'amore
Capri ve po 'ncantà cu 'na parola

Tu luna luna tu luna caprese
Tous les amants d'un soir toujours se plaisent
Ces jours des amoureux prennent en vacances
Chantent sous les étoiles une romance
Berçés par les accents de la guitare
C'est avec un regard que se déclare
Son fou désir d'aimer son impatience
Les plus tendres aveux sont des silences

Luna caprese fa innamorare
Pierre du temps passé vieille dentelle
Témoin de tout l'amour des cœurs fidèles
Tu luna luna tu luna caprese
Résonne dans tes murs toujours le même
Sous la luna caprese en Italie
Avec toi je voudrais finir ma vie

Ohé, comme cantate 'sta canzone
Vuie ça suffrite 'e pene de l'amore
Capri ve po 'ncantà cu 'na parola

Moon


Moon
Composer(s): Michael Caleo; Jack Miles
Performer(s): Sam Browne



Moon, tell me about my love
Tell me, Oh Moon, who is she thinking of
Does she belong to me
Or is she fancy free
While you are gleaming, beaming, oh let me know

Moon, are we to be apart
Tell me, Oh Moon, has she another heart
Though it would hurt me so
Still I would like to know
Oh Moon, Oh Moon
