You Broke The Only Heart That Ever Loved You


You Broke The Only Heart That Ever Loved You
Composer(s): Freddy James; Little Jack Little
Performer(s): The Mills Brothers



Your reputation has preceeded you
You always hurt someone who needed you
It doesn't take long for news to get around
And now you want to be found

'Cause you broke the only heart that ever loved you
And you tossed away the only love you knew
As if nothin' mattered, you battered and shattered
A heart so true

Only to wake up and find that the break-up
Was breakin' the heart of you
And now you come to me for consolation
And I'd be a fool to fall for such a line.

Yes, you broke the only heart that ever loved you
And now that I met you
I'm not gonna let you break mine

I'm on a submarine mission for you baby
I feel the way you were going
I picked you up on my tv screen
I feel your undercurrent flowing

Submission going down down
Dragging me down submission
I can't tell ya what I've found

You've got me pretty deep baby
I can't figure out your watery love
I gotta solve your mystery
Your sitting it out in heaven above

Submission going down down
Dragging me down submission
I can't tell you what I've found
For there's a mystery
Under the sea under a water
Come share it

Submission going down down
Dragging me down submission
I can't tell ya what I've found
'Cos it's a secret
Under the water under the sea
Octopus Rock

Got me pretty deep baby
I can't figure out your watery love
I gotta solve your mystery
Your sitting it out in heaven above

Submission going down down
Dragging me down submission
I can't tell ya what I've found

Going down down under the sea
I wanna drown drown under the water
Going down down under the sea

You Broke My Heart To Pass The Time Away


You Broke My Heart To Pass The Time Away
Composer(s): Leo Wood; Joe Goodwin
Performer(s): Manuel Romain; Henry Burr



You've said goodbye and everything is over now it seems
And all you left behind for me were dreams, just shattered dreams
For you were all I had, the only happiness I knew
You went away without a word, you proved your love untrue

I see you as I saw you on the day we two first met
You seemed as an angel from above your smile I can't forget
The smiles that made me think, perhaps, some day for me you'll care
The smile that promised untold joy, but left me in despair

You never meant the kisses that you gave me
I've paid with tears for every bit of joy
You made a plaything of my heart, the heart I gave to you
You broke it like a child would break a toy
The love you gave was like a fading flower
The kind of love that lives for just a day
But forgive you, dear, I will
God knows, I love you still
Tho' you broke my heart, to pass the time away

Sube A La Nube


Sube A La Nube
Performer(s): Fernando Ubiergo



El otro día me llamó
el nuevo director
de la compañía
Y dijo que me van a echar
porque hace tiempo ya
mis discos no vendían
Me habló de canciones nuevas
para venderlas afuera
Olvídate de las lentas
ahahá, ahahá

Al otro día desperté
me puse a buscar
una canción de esas
Después cuando la terminé
me puse a guitarrear
bailando por la pieza
Al rato llegó mi hijo
me dijo "viejo qué pasa"
Y yo respondí que nada
Ahahá ahahá

Sube a la nube
Bájame el agua
que queda
Deja a la estrella
cantar lo que quiera
Ahahá, ahahá

A la hora de cenar
en el comedor
tuve mi platea
Todo el mundo bien callado
para escuchar
mi canción más nueva

Una vez finalizada
sólo vi caras largas
Yo pregunté que pasa
Ahahá...ahahá

Sube a la nube
bájame el agua que puedas
deja a la estrella
cantar lo que quiera
Ahahá... ahahá

You Broke A Heart (That Was Breaking For You)


You Broke A Heart (That Was Breaking For You)
Composer(s): Ernest Tubb
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb



Moonlight night stars shining bright
Sweethearts are strolling by my window tonight
Laughing so gay as they go on there way
To them to whole world seems bright

And I sit alone lonesome and blue
Wondering, just wondering yet I know it’s true
As I live again those hours of pain
When You Broke A Heart That Was Breaking For You

The heart that was breaking for you, dear
Is broke and will never forgive
And I want you to know, where ever you go
I’ll blame you as long as I live

Now I’ve made mistakes some great, some small
Some are so needless, haven’t we all?
But the greatest mistake in all my time
Was to believe what you said when you said you where mine

As the long years unfold for me there’s not much in view
But if you ever find happiness it’s more than you’re due
If your nights seem so long, so endless and blue
Remember You Broke A Heart That Was Breaking For You

The heart that was breaking for you, dear
Is broke and will never forgive
And I want you to know, where ever you go
I’ll blame you as long as I live

Angels In The Snow


Angels In The Snow
Composer(s): Kenny Loggins - Julia Loggins - Steve Wood
Performer(s): Kenny Loggins; Mervyn Warren



When December comes
Then we'll take the kids to Mama's
They can make snow angels in the yard
Like a Christmas card

We'll decorate the tree
Put an angel high above us
Like we always do
At Christmas

On and on it goes
Every year new memories to share
And for all we know
We will all of us be there

When the autumn leaves have gone to gold
And swallows know December's calling
I'll be flying home a thousand times
In all my sweetest dreams

I can see the glow in your eyes
As we sit by the fire
Like lovers we knew long ago
While we watch our angels in the snow

When December comes
We'll be trying to remember
Where we packed our woolen winter clothes
Only heaven knows

When December comes
We'll be hanging pine and holly
Singing all the songs we sing
At Christmas

Home is ever near
Hearts return no matter what we do
And Love will build a bridge
And I will always be there with you

When the autumn leaves have gone to gold
And swallows know December's calling
I'll be flying home a thousand times
If only in my dreams

And I see the glow in your eyes
As we sit by the fire
Like lovers we knew long ago
While we watch our angels in the snow

You Better, You Bet


You Better, You Bet
Composer(s): Pete Townshend
Performer(s): The Who; David West



You better you better you bet
I call you on the telephone
my voice too rough with cigarettes
I sometimes think I should just go home
but I'm dealing with a memory
that never forgets
I love to hear you say my name especially when you say yes
I got your body right now on my mind
and I drunk myself blind to the
sound of old T-Rex
To the sound of old T-Rex - who's next?

Chorus
When I say I love you, you say you better
You better you better you bet
When I say I need you, you say you better
You better you better you bet
You better bet your life
Or love will cut you like a knife
I want those feeble minded axes overthrown
I'm not into your passport picture I just like your nose
You welcome me with open arms and open legs
I know only fools have needs but this one never begs
I don't really mind how much you love me
A little is really alright
When you say come over and spend the night
Tonight

Chorus
I lay on the bed with you
We could make some book of records
Your dog keeps licking my nose
And chewing up all those letters
Saying "you better"
You better bet your life
You better love me, all the time now
You better shove me back into line now
You better love me, all the time now
You better shove me back into line now
I showed up late one night with a neon light for a visa
But knowing I'm so eager to fight can't make letting me in any easier
I know that I been wearing crazy clothes and I look pretty crappy
Sometime
But my body feels so good and I still sing a razor line every time
And when it comes to all night living
I know what I'm giving
I've got it all down to a tee
And it's free

Chorus

As With Gladness, Men Of Old


As With Gladness, Men Of Old
Composer(s): William Chatterton Dix
Performer(s): The Choir of Trinity College
and multiple other artists



As with gladness, men of old
Did the guiding star behold
As with joy they hailed its light
Leading onward, beaming bright
So, most glorious Lord, may we
Evermore be led to Thee

As with joyful steps they sped
To that lowly manger bed
There to bend the knee before
Him whom heaven and earth adore
So may we with willing feet
Ever seek thy mercy-seat

As they offered gifts most rare
At that manger rude and bare
So may we with holy joy
Pure and free from sin's alloy
All our costliest treasures bring
Christ, to Thee, our heavenly King

Holy Jesus, every day
Keep us in the narrow way
And, when earthly things are past
Bring our ransomed souls at last
Where they need no star to guide
Where no clouds thy glory hide

In the heavenly country bright
Need they no created light
Thou its light, its joy, its crown
Thou its sun which goes not down
There forever may we sing
Alleluias to our King

Suave Niña


Suave Niña
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez



Suave niña
mía desde que lo que sueño es tu verdad
tu presencia es irrompible por su suavidad
Suave niña
de anatomía que es capaz de asesinar
parte tu deseo en dos y dame una mitad

Mi suave niña de memoria
estás durmiendo en mi tacto
mi suave niña de memoria
estás rompiéndome las sienes
mi suave niña de memoria
estás llevándome por una carretera larga
como a un aro de rodar

Oh, suave niña, suave niña
niña suave y mía

Suave niña
estoy buscando nuevos nombres para tí
ya he gastado todos los susurros que aprendí
Suave niña
me has convertido en un objeto de colgar
soy una repisa en tus salones de cristal

Mi suave niña de memoria
estás sirviendo de alcancía
mi suave niña de memoria
estás guardando mis tesoros
mi suave niña de memoria
estás ardiendo entre mis manos invisibles
que recorren, ambiciosas, tu espejismo

Oh, suave niña, suave niña
niña suave y mía

Suave niña
podrás no recordarme en todo un día feliz
pero sé que soy inevitable al dormir
Suave niña
niña de suave melodía con que amar
suavemente suave, niña de mi suavidad

Oh, suave niña, suave niña
niña suave y mía

You Better Sit Down Kids


You Better Sit Down Kids
Composer(s): Sonny Bono
Performer(s): Cher; Roy Drusky; Glen Campbell;
Wayne Newton; Gary Puckett & The Union Gap; Liza Minnelli



Better sit down kids
I'll tell you why, kids
You might not understand, kids
But give it a try, kids
Now how should I put this
I've got something to say
Your mother is staying
But I'm going away
No, we're not mad, kids
It's hard to say why
Your mother and I
Don't see eye to eye

Chorus:
Say your prayers before you go to bed
Make sure you get yourself to school on time
I know you'll do the things your mother asks
She's gonna need you most to stay in line
Keep in mind your mother's gonna need your help
A whole lot more than she ever did before
No more fights over little things
Because I won't be here to stop them anymore

I know you don't want this, neither do we
But sometimes things happen that we can't foresee
Now try to be calm kids, and don't look so sad
Just cause I am leaving, I'll still be your dad
Just remember I love you though I'm not here
Just call if you need me, and I'll always be near

Chorus

Well I have to go now so kiss me goodbye
My eyes are just red kids, I'm too big to cry

Suave
Composer(s): Fernando Pessoa - Luis Eduardo Aute
Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute



Es suave el día
Suave el viento
Es suave el sol y suave el cielo
¡Que fuera así mi pensamiento!
¡ser yo tan suave es lo que anhelo!
Pero entre mí y las suaves glorias
del cielo y del aire sin mí
hay muchos sueños y memorias...
¡lo que yo quiero es ser así!
Ah, el mundo es lo que a él traemos
todo existió porque existí
hay porque vemos
¡Y hay mundo porque yo lo vi!

Run when I say, somebody's calling you
You'd better run
Run when I say, (somebody's calling you)
You'd better run
Run when I say, (somebody's calling you)

Whose head was bending Lord
I met him in the evening
He was headed down that long lonesome road

(Well now you'd better run)
Run when I say, somebody's calling you

Run when I say, (somebody's calling you)
You'd better run
Get away from here, somebody's calling you
I feel like my time has long gone
Long gone, (my time is long gone), long gone

Su, Me Robaste Todo


Su, Me Robaste Todo
Composer(s): Miguel Mateos
Performer(s): Miguel Mateos



Su, me robaste todo
Su, me convertiste en lodo
y tuve que especular
con dinero inmoral
Su, siete años a tu antojo
invertí y perdí, fuera de mí
Su, mi mente aún trabaja
Su, aunque no des ventaja
no me podrás quebrar
ni vender, ni comprar
Su, soy clase media baja

En tanto mi canto
se parte con el llanto
del pibe que vende Geniol
Espero y quiero
que el mundo, el mundo entero
sepa de mi dolor por...
Su, vas a pedir la hora, ja ja ja
Su, tu cama no enamora
me mandaste a peliar
contra Neptuno en el mar
Su, láser versus boleadoras
Lennon, León, un solo corazón

Oh! Su, Oh! Su
Hay mucho en juego
hay un destino nuevo
y ollas para destapar
Hay ganas, hay onda
que nadie más se esconda
por miedo a andar con la verdad
Oh! Su, Mambrú
se va a pasar al club
de los que aman la libertad
tan solo libertad
Oh! Su

You Better Not Do That


You Better Not Do That
Composer(s): Tommy Collins
Performer(s): Tommy Collins;
and various other artists



I'm just a plain ol' country kid and I like to do what's right
But just like any other boy I like to hold 'em tight
Sometimes I got resistence, but no matter how I try
When a cute little gal just looks at me with a gleam in her eye
And I say "You better not do that", and she say "Why?"
And I say "Because you just better not do that"

When I was in the country school I always had a girl
They'd laugh and giggle awful cute and put me in a whirl
And everyday at recess time they followed me outside
I'd scratch my head and wonder are they ever satified
I'd say "Honey, you better not do that" and she'd say "Why?"
And I'd say "Because you just better not do that"

(Instrumental Break)

When I was a little older, I went to the country dance
I went to have a little fun, I wasn't thinkin' about romance
But the dim lights just lured 'em on and they'd snuggle up to me
I knew I couldn't last too long, 'cos I'm human you see
And I'd say "Baby, you better not do that", and she'd say "Why?"
And I'd say "Because you just better not do that"

Now that's the way my life has been, ain't it a cryin' shame
How much longer can I last if I keep playin' a game
Sometimes I don't know who I am, don't they know what they're doin'
I'm afraid in years to come that girls will be my ruin
And I'll say "Now honey, you better not do that", and she'll say "Why?"
And I'll say "You just better not do that", and she'll say "Why-y-y?"
And I'll say "Oh...well...oh...aah...oh...well it's alright if you do that"

Su Di Noi


Su Di Noi
Composer(s): E. Ghinazzi - P. Barabani - D. Milani
Performer(s): Pupo



Su di noi ci avresti scommesso tu
su di noi mi vendi un sorriso tu
se lo vuoi cantare, sognare, sperare così
Su di noi gli amici dicevano
no, vedrai, è tutto sbagliato
Su di noi nemmeno una nuvola
su di noi l'amore è una favola
su di noi se tu vuoi volare
lontano dal mondo, portati dal vento
non chiedermi dove si va
Noi due respirando lo stesso momento
per fare l'amore qua e là
Mi stavi vicino e non mi accorgevo
di quanto importante eri tu
adesso ci siamo, fai presto, ti amo
non perdere un attimo in più
Su di noi nemmeno una nuvola
su di noi l'amore è una favola
su di noi se tu vuoi volare...
Su di noi ancora una volta dai
su di noi se tu vuoi volare
ti porto lontano nei campi di grano
che nascono dentro di me
Nei sogni proibiti di due innamorati
nel posto più bello che c'è
Lontano dal mondo, portati dal vento
respira la tua libertà
giocare un momento poi corrersi incontro
per fare l'amore qua e là
Su di noi nemmeno una nuvola
su di noi l'amore è una favola
su di noi se tu vuoi volare...
Mi stavi vicino e non mi accorgevo
di quanto importante eri tu
adesso ci siamo, fai presto, ci siamo
non perdere un attimo in più
Su di noi, ancora una volta dai
su di noi, di te non mi stanco mai
Su di noi, ancora una volta dai
su di noi, di te non mi stanco mai
Noi, solo noi, su di noi, solo noi
noi, solo noi, su di noi, solo noi

((German Version: Es Ist Besser, Du Gehst (Drafi Deutscher))
Composer(s): Arthur Alexander
First release by: Arthur Alexander - 1961
Covered by multiple other artists



You ask me to give up the hand of the girl I love
You tell me, I'm not the man she's worthy of
But who are you to tell her who to love?
That's up to her, yes, and the Lord above
You better move on

Well I know you can buy her fancy clothes
But I believe she's happy with me without those things
Still you beg me to set her free
But my friend, that will never be
You better move on

Now I don't blame you for loving her
But can't you understand, man, she's my girl
And I, never never ever gonna let her go
`Cuz I, yeah, I love her so

I think you better go now , I'm getting mighty mad
You ask me to give up the only love I've ever had
Maybe I would, oh, but I love her so
I'm never gonna let her go
You better move on

And There Were Shepherds


And There Were Shepherds
Composer(s): Johann Sebastian Bach
Performer(s): Robert Shaw



And there were shepherds in the same country
Abiding in the field, keeping watch by night over their flock
And lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them
And the glory of the Lord shone round about them
And they were sore afraid
And the angel said to them...

Be not afraid
Behold, for I bring good tidings of great joy
Which shall be to all the people
For unto you this day a Saviour is born
Which is Christ the Lord, in the city of David

Break forth, O beauteous heav'nly light
And usher in the morning
Ye shepherds, shrink not with affright
But hear the angel's warning

This child, now weak in infancy
Our confidence and joy shall be
The power of Satan breaking
Our peace eternal making
