Con Los Brazos Abiertos


Con Los Brazos Abiertos
Composer(s): J. Capell
Performer(s): Raphael



En sueños yo te he visto
Que vienes hacia mí
Al fin has comprendido
Que mi amor es para ti
Con los brazos abiertos vida mía
Me hallarás esperando cada día
He soñado contigo
Y me has dicho que vienes
A quedarte junto a mí
Y tu amor me darás
Con los brazos abiertos yo te espero
Y mil veces repito que te quiero
Ya te veo que llegas
A traerme la dicha
El amor hecho luz
Y la felicidad
Con los brazos abiertos te recibo
Y los dos formaremos nuestro nido
Mi alma entera he de darte
Vivo para adorarte
Y el buen Dios velará
Por los dos nuestro amor

The young ones
Darling, we're the young ones
And the young ones
Shouldn't be afraid
To live, love
While the flame is strong
For we may not be
The young ones very long

Tomorrow
Why wait until tomorrow
'cause tomorrow
Sometimes never comes
So, love me
There's a song to be sung
And the best time
Is to sing it while we're young

Once in every lifetime
Comes a love like this
Oh, I need you,
You need me
Oh, my darling, can't you see...

Young dreams
Should be dreams together
And young hearts
Shouldn't be afraid
And some day
When the years have flown
Darling, then we'll teach
The young ones of our own

Once in every lifetime
Comes a love like this
Oh, I need you,
You need me
Oh, my darling, can't you see...

Young dreams
Should be dreams together
And the young hearts
Shouldn't be afraid
And some day
While the years have flown
Darling, then we'll teach
The young one of our own

Con Las Manos Abiertas


Con Las Manos Abiertas
Composer(s): Guijarro; Algueró
Performer(s): Raphael



Yo paso por la vida
Con las manos abiertas
Acariciando el aire
Tocando las estrellas
Llevándome conmigo
Todas las cosas bellas
Todas las cosas dulces
Todas las cosas buenas
Yo paso por la vida
Con las manos abiertas
Por eso al conocerte
He querido retenerte
Y con mis manos
Ofrecerte lo mejor
Un poco de alegría
Una alegre melodía
Y los sueños que latían
En mi corazón
Yo, yo paso por la vida
Con las manos abiertas
Acariciando el aire
Tocando las estrellas
Pero si tú me quieres
Las cerraré con fuerza
Y en mis manos cerradas
Guardaré nuestro amor

Oh Rose, my Rose Marie

Oh Rose Marie I love you

Of all the queens that ever lived I'd choose you
To rule me my Rose Marie

Of all the queens that ever lived I'd choose you
To rule me my Rose Marie

Of all the queens that ever lived I'd choose you, yes I'd choose you

Zijn je jaren, je jonge jaren al voorbij

En morgen, wacht niet meer tot morgen
Want morgen, is misschien te laat
Kom gauw, bij, kom maar gauw dicht bij mij
Voor de liefde, onze liefde overgaat

Eén keer in je leven
Komt zo iets toch voor
Oh, ik hou van jou, en jij van mij
Oh my darling blijf bij mij

Zonder jou, ik kan niet meer zonder jou
Want zonder jou, voel ik mij alleen
Kom gauw ,bij, kom maar gauw dicht bij mij
Voor de liefde, ja onze liefde overgaat

Eén keer in je leven
Komt zo iets toch voor
Ik hou van jou en jij van mij
Oh my darling blijf bij mij

Zonder jou, ik kan niet meer zonder jou
Want zonder jou ,voel ik mij alleen
Kom gauw, bij, kom maar gauw dicht bij mij
Voor de liefde, ja onze liefde, overgaat

Con La Muerte Entre Los Puños


Con La Muerte Entre Los Puños
Composer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez
Performer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez



Nació cerca del potrero
donde no había ni un caballo
recibió la luz del cielo
con relámpagos y rayos

El no conoció la escuela
donde fueron sus hermanos
porqué él ya tenía la fuerza
en el puño de sus manos

Un hermano de su padre
boxeador ya retirado
le regaló el par de guantes
con los que él había ganado
y no le quedaron grandes
cuando tumbó al diablo Vega
el campeón de todo barrio

Llegó a ser el campeón del mundo
no había quien lo enfrentara
hasta luego llegó el valiente
y peleó en Guadalajara

Salió a ganar como siempre
desde la primer campana
le pegó hasta que la muerte
se le dibujó en la cara

El lloró con la victoria
y maldijo su destino
porque conquistó la gloria
pero se sintió asesino
después aventó los guantes
y salió de las cuerdas
a buscar cualquier camino

Con La Mitad


Con La Mitad
Composer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez
Performer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez



Con la mitad del cariño
que to te tengo
podrás hacerte feliz

Con la mitad de los besos
que yo te daba
la vida entera podrías vivir

Con que te quieran tantito
nomás tantito
podrás salval el dolor
de no quedarte en el mundo
con mucha pena
con mucha angustia
y pidiendo amor

Pero sé que tú vas a pagar lo que debes
y me sales debiendo tanto
que con todas las cosas que tienes
no cubre la deuda que me está matando

Con la mitad de mi vida
mi media copa
aquí vengo a tomar
por esos años queridos
cuando en tus brazos
me fui enseñando a sufrir y amar

Poprque a pesar de tus cosas
que nunca sepas
lo que es un cielo sin sol
ya que a pesar de tu infamia
a Dios le pido
te falte todo y te sobre amor

Pero sé que tú vas a pagar lo que debes
y me sales debiendo tanto
que con todas las cosas que tienes
no cubre la deuda que me está matando

Rose Coloured Glasses


Rose Coloured Glasses
Composer(s): Scott McCarl
Performer(s): The Raspberries



I'm an ivory tower boy
Never quite put down the toys
I always made the best of them all
I see only sunny skies
With the world in my eyes
I never seem to find the crack or the fault

I see it all through rose-coloured glasses
And I only see what matters to me
I see you all through rose-coloured glasses, yeah
The one that I chose
Is coloured rose

It's a funny sort of haze
All full of dreams of yesterdays
And the dreams are so real you could cry
And you know the grass is green
On the side you've never seen
And the thought is what helps you get by

Chorus

As I grow a little more
And wonder what this all is for
And the brass ring is slipping away
I will keep the glasses near
Maybe shed a quiet tear
Maybe smile inside as I say

I see it all through rose-coloured glasses
And I only see what matters to me
I see you all through rose-coloured glasses, yeah
The one that I chose
Is coloured

Con Il Nastro Rosa


Con Il Nastro Rosa
Composer(s): Lucio Battisti; Mogol
First release by: Lucio Battisti - 1980
Covered by multiple other artists



Inseguendo una libellula in un prato
un giorno che avevo rotto col passato
quando già credevo d'esserci riuscito, son caduto
una frase sciocca un volgare doppio senso
mi ha allarmato: non e' come io la penso
ma il sentimento era già un po' troppo denso e son restato
chissà, chissà chi sei
chissà che sarai, chissà che sarà di noi
lo scopriremo solo vivendo
comunque adesso ho un po' paura, ora che quest'avventura
sta diventando una storia vera spero tanto tu sia sincera
un magazzino che contiene tante casse
alcune nere, alcune gialle, alcune rosse
dovendo scegliere e studiare le mie mosse
sono all'impasse
mi sto accorgendo che son giunto dentro casa
con la mia cassa ancora con il nastro rosa
e non vorrei aver sbagliato la mia spesa o la mia sposa
chissà, chissà chi sei
chissà che sarai, chissà che sarà di noi
lo scopriremo solo vivendo
comunque adesso ho un po' paura, ora che quest'avventura
sta diventando una storia vera spero tanto tu sia sincera

Rose And The Thorn


Rose And The Thorn
Composer(s): Stacy Sutherland
Performer(s): 13th Floor Elevators



A brand new smile on a brand new angel's face
It won't change, it won't change
You're here to stay until your last living breath is complete
It' won't change, it won't change
Here she comes, my love
with the earth beneath her feet
my love she comes
She cares
I do not ask her why she cares
she cares
And this is not untold
within her eyes
spoken by her soul
The dawn of truth will rise!
Liberty will find us
Grown cold, and make him stoned
The canon stops it's firing
the unknown soldier will come home
Faith cannot remain
wicked words have been confirmed false
A single drop of the rain
the rose and and thorn...
The Rise and the Fall!

The Yip! Song


The Yip! Song
Composer(s): Robyn Hitchcock
Performer(s): Robyn Hitchcock



The old man, he was flesh - they wheeled him in upon a trolley
Vera Lynn, Vera Lynn
Draw a window on his skin

This old man, he was next - blindfolded to face the volley
Vera Lynn, Vera Lynn
Love will come of all our sins
Painted on my tail fin now Vera Lynn

This old man preserved - in his mind he lay with Molly
Vera Lynn, Vera Lynn
Septicemia always wins
Cleanse us with your healing grin now
Vera Lynn

Coma high, coma low
Blood is precious, yes or no?
I believe in surgery - and that's a fact
I believe in making it easy
I believe in surgery, but I never act
I believe in making it easy

Easy...

This old man, he was gone-he was gone and I was sorry
Vera Lynn, Vera Lynn
Down I spiral, down I spin
Forces sweetheart, I'm your twin now
Vera Lynn

Yip

Con El Sol De La Mañana


Con El Sol De La Mañana
Composer(s): Bebu Silvetti
Performer(s): Raphael



Hoy quiere llorar mi amor
Este es mi dolor por ti
Grita con mi corazón tu voz
Por volver a aquel ayer
Y así siento con mi ansiedad tu piel
Jugar con la soledad y yo
Sin poderte olvidar
Sin lograr ser como fui
Que vagaba sin pensar
Que reía del amor y de la vida
Si con el sol de la mañana
Llega el día y tengo ganas de vivir
Ya no canto viejas melodías
Que contigo compartí
Y yo no sé mirar lo hermoso de este mundo
Si conmigo tú no estás
Porque tu recuerdo a mí me lastima
Y por ti quiero llorar

Rose


Rose
Composer(s): Rod McKuen
Performer(s): Rod McKuen



I married Rose in Twenty-One
we got a little farm
the first year out
the barn burned down
I broke my good right arm

From then on in things got bad
I guess they could have been worse
but seeing Rose in rags all day
made me wanna curse

That's okay Rose'd say
don't you worry none
we'll have good times by and by
next fall when the work's all done

I watched her hands grow rough and red
from pickin' in the fields
putting up in Mason Jars
what little crops they'd yield

I'd find what jobs there were in town
most times there were none
but Rose'd still have supper a waitin'
at night when the day was done

That's okay Rose'd say
don't you worry none
we'll have good times by and by
next fall when the work's all done

Our first-born had a face like Rose
and I guess a temper like mine
she'd sleep all day and cry all night
but she grew up and married fine

Our only son went off to fight
in Nineteen Forty and Four
a year went by and a telegram said
he ain't comin' home no more

One winter night in Fifty Nine
Rose took a terrible chill
she went to sleep and she didn't wake up
I guess she's sleeping still

But sometimes when the wind is singing
high up in the Chinaberry tree
it seems it not the wind at all
but Rose singing to me

That's okay Rose'd say
don't you worry none
we'll have good times by and by
next fall when the work's all done

That's okay Rose'd say
don't you worry none
we'll have good times by and by
next fall when the work's all done

Con Diez Años De Menos


Con Diez Años De Menos
Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez



Si fuera diez años más joven, qué feliz
y qué descaminado el tono de decir
cada palabra desatando un temporal
y enloqueciendo la etiqueta ocasional

Los años son, pues, mi mordaza, oh mujer
sé demasiado me convierto en mi saber
Quisiera haberte conocido años atrás
para sacar chispas del agua que me das
para empuñar la alevosía y el candor
y saber olvidar mejor

Esta mujer propone que salte y me estrelle
contra un muro de piedras que alza en el cielo
y como combustible me llena de anhelos
de besos sin promesa y sentencias sin leyes

Esta mujer propone un pacto que selle
la tierra con el viento, la luz con la sombra
invoca los misterios del tiempo y me nombra
Esta mujer propone que salte y me estrelle
sólo para verle
sólo para amarle
sólo para serle
sólo y no olvidarle

Con diez años de menos, no habría esperado
por sus proposiciones y hubiera corrido
como una fiera al lecho en que nos conocimos
impúdico y sangriento, divino y alado

Con diez años de menos, habría blasfemado
con savia de su cuerpo quemaría los templos
para que los cobarde tomaran ejemplo
Con diez años de menos, hubiera matado
sólo para verle
sólo para amarle
sólo para serle
sólo y no olvidarle

The Yellow Rose Of Texas/The Eyes Of Texas


The Yellow Rose Of Texas/The Eyes Of Texas
Composer(s): Wise - Starr - Sinclair - Lance
Performer(s): Elvis Presley



Oh the yellow rose of Texas is the only girl I love
Her eyes are even bluer than Texas skies above
Her heart's as big as Texas and wherever I may go
I'll remember her forever because I love her so

There are so many roses that bloom along the way
But my heart's in Amarillo and that's where it will stay
With the yellow rose of Texas so I'd better get there fast
'Cause I know I was her first love and I want to be her last

Oh the yellow rose of Texas is the only girl I love
Her eyes are even bluer than Texas skies above
Her heart's as big as Texas and wherever I may go
I'll remember her forever because I love her so

The eyes of Texas are upon you all the live long day
The eyes of Texas are upon you, you cannot get away
Do not think you can escape them at night or early in the morn
The eyes of Texas are upon you 'til Gabriel blows his horn

The eyes of Texas are upon you all the live long day
The eyes of Texas are upon you, you cannot get away
Do not think you can escape them at night or early in the morn
The eyes of Texas are upon you 'til Gabriel blows his horn

The eyes of Texas are upon you all the live long day
The eyes of Texas are upon you, you cannot get away
Do not think you can escape them at night or early in the morn
The eyes of Texas are upon you 'til Gabriel blows his horn

Comunque Bella


Comunque Bella
Composer(s): Mogol-Battisti
Performer(s): Lucio Battisti



Tu vestita di fiori o di fari in città
con la nebbia o i colori
cogliere le rose a piedi nudi e poi
con la sciarpa stretta al collo bianca come mai
ma eri bella bella comunque bella
quando l'arcobaleno era in fondo ai tuoi occhi
quando sotto al tuo seno l'ira avvelenava il cuore tuo
tu vedevi un'altra donna avvicinarsi a me
prima ancora che io capissi e riscegliessi te
tu eri bella bella comunque bella
anche quando un mattino tornasti vestita di pioggia
con lo sguardo stravolto da una notte d'amore
"siediti qui" "non ti chiedo perdono perché tu sei un uomo"
coi capelli bagnati "so che capirai" con quei segni sul viso
"mi spiace da morire, sai" coi tuoi occhi arrossati
mentre tu mentivi e mi dicevi che
ancor più di prima tu amavi me
tu eri bella bella, comunque bella

Rosarita (Tom Jans)


Rosarita
Performer(s): Tom Jans



She was the darkest light
That I'd ever known
Razed in an endless night
And made out ofstone
I met her in a mission
She said "The beams are made of bone"
Stories she told made me feel so all alone
And I would follow her
As she walked in the hills
Drinking the silence there
Until she had her fill
I wanted to take her
But I guess I never will

Rosarita your journey is my own
They say that your lover is not made of blood and bone
The dust from the El Camino upan your face
Your mother's in the mansion
And your father's in disgrace

One evening I followed her down to the sea
Blue eyes and brown body dancing gracefully
Voice. in the shadows I was ready for a fight
She said remember what you learn tonight
And in the moonlight I could see her smile
She said you can take me
But only for a little while
You see my lover has gone so many more miles

Somebody said they saw her running in the wind
With tearful eyes never to return again
I never was her lover
And I never was her friend
