Aspenglow
Aspenglow
Composer(s): John Denver
Performer(s): John Denver
and multiple other artists
See the sunlight through the pine
Taste the warm of winter wine
Dream of softly falling snow
Winter snow Aspenglow
As the winter days unfold
Hearts grow warmer with the cold
Peace of mind is all you know
Winter snow Aspenglow
Aspen is a life to live
See how much there is to give
See how strongly you believe
See how much you may receive
Smiling faces all around
Laughter is the only sound
Memories that can't grow old
Winter snow Aspenglow
Aspen is a life to live
See how much there is to give
See how strongly you believe
See how much you may receive
See the sunlight through the pine
Taste the warm of winter wine
Dream of softly falling snow
Winter snow Aspenglow

You Can't Catch Me
You Can't Catch Me
Composer(s): Chuck Berry
Performer(s): Chuck Berry;
and various other artists
I bought a brand new airmobile
It was custom made
'Twas a Flight DeVille
With a powerful motor
And some hide-away wings
Push in on the button and you will hear her sing
Now you can't catch me
Baby, you can't catch me
'Cause if you get too close
You know I'm gone like a cool breeze
New Jersey Turnpike in the wee wee hours
I was rolling slowly 'cause of drizzlin' showers
Here come up flat top he was movin' up with me
Then come wavin' goodbye
In a little old suped up jitny
I put my foot in my tank and I began to roll
Moanin' sirens, 'twas the state po'trol
So I let out my wings and then I blew my horn
Bye-bye New Jersey I become airborne
Now you can't catch me
Baby you can't catch me
'Cause if you get too close
You know I'm gone like a cool breeze
Flyin' with my baby last Saturday night
Wasn't a gray cloud floatin' in sight
Big full moon shinin' up above
Cuddle up honey be my love
Sweetest little thing I ever seen
I'm gon' name you Maybellene
Flyin' on the beam set on flight control
Radio tuned to rock 'n' roll
Two, three hours are passed us by
Altitude dropped to 505
Fuel consumption way too fast
Let's get on home before we run out of gas
Now you can't catch me
No baby, you can't catch me
'Cause if you get too close
You know I'm gone like a coooool breeze

Sueño Con Serpientes
Sueño Con Serpientes
Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
and multiple other artists
Sueño con serpientes, con serpientes de mar
con cierto mar, ay, de serpientes sueño yo
Largas, transparentes, y en sus barrigas llevan
lo que puedan arrebatarle al amor
Oh, la mato y aparece una mayor
Oh, con mucho más infierno en digestión
No quepo en su boca, me trata de tragar
pero se atora con un trébol de mi sien
Creo que está loca; le doy de masticar
una paloma y la enveneno de mi bien
Oh, la mato y aparece una mayor
Oh, con mucho más infierno en digestión
Ésta al fin me engulle, y mientras por su esófago
paseo, voy pensando en qué vendrá
Pero se destruye cuando llego a su estómago
y planteo con un verso una verdad
Oh, la mato y aparece una mayor
Oh, con mucho más infierno en digestión

Performer(s): Ken Griffin - 1948

You can't be true, dear
There's nothing more to say
I trusted you, dear
Hoping we'd find a way
Your kisses tell me
That you and I are through
But I'll keep loving you
Although you can't be true
Clouds hide the sun
In the skies that were blue
As my heart says
Goodbye to you
You can't be true, dear
There's nothing more to say
I trusted you, dear
Hoping we'd find a way
Your kisses tell me
That you and I are through
But I'll keep loving you
Although you can't be true

You Can't Be Too Strong
You Can't Be Too Strong
Composer(s): Graham Parker
Performer(s): Graham Parker; Superfolk
Did they tear it out, with talons of steel
And give you a shot, so that you wouldn't feel
And wash it away, as if it wasn't real
It's just a mistake, I won't have to face
Don't give it a name, don't give it a place
Don't give it a chance, it's lucky in a way
It must have felt strange, to find me inside you
I hadn't intended to stay
If you want to keep it right, put it to sleep at night
Squeeze it until it could say
(Chorus)
You can't be too strong
You can't be too strong
You can't be too strong
You can't be too strong
You decide what's wrong
Well I ain't gonna cry, I'm gonna rejoice
And shout myself dry, and go see the boys
They'll laugh when I say, I left it overseas
Yeah babe I know that it gets dark, down by Luna Park
But everybody else, is squeezing out a spark
That happened in the heat, somewhere in the dark, in the dark
The doctor gets nervous, completing the service
He's all rubber gloves and no head
He fumbles the light switch, it's just another minor hitch
Wishes to God he was dead
(Repeat Chorus)
You can't be too strong You decide what's wrong
Can't be too hard, too tough, too rough, too right, too wrong
And you, can't be too strong
Baby you can't be too strong...

Suddenly, Seymour
Suddenly, Seymour
Composer(s): Alan Menken - Howard Ashman
Performer(s): Jennifer Leigh Warren
and multiple other artists
Lift up your head
Wash off your mascara
Here, take my kleenex
Wipe that lipstick away
Show me your face
Clean as the mornin'
I know things were bad
But now they're ok
Suddenly, Seymour
Is standing beside you
You don't need no make-up
Don't have to pretend
Suddenly, Seymour
Is here to provide you
Sweet understanding
Seymour's your friend
Nobody, ever
Treated me kindly
Daddy left early
Mama was poor
I need a man, and I'd
Follow him blindly
He'd snap he fingers and
I'd say, "sure"
Suddenly, Seymour
Is standing beside me
He don't give me orders
He don't condescend
Suddenly, Seymour
Is here to provide me
Sweet understanding
Seymour's my friend
Tell me this feeling
Lasts 'til forever
Tell me the bad times
Are clean, washed away!
Please understand that
It's still strange and frightening
For loosers like I've been
It's so hard to say...
Suddenly, Seymour
He purified me
Suddenly, Seymour
Showed me I can!
Learn how to be more!
The girl that's inside (you/me)
With sweet understanding
With sweet understanding
With sweet understanding
Seymour's (your/my) man

You Can't Always Get What You Want
You Can't Always Get What You Want
Composer(s): Mick Jagger; Keith Richards
Performer(s): The Rolling Stones;
and various other artists
I saw her today at the reception
A glass of wine in her hand
I knew she was gonna meet her connection
At her feet was a footloose man
I saw her today at the reception
A glass of wine in her hand
I knew she was gonna meet her connection
At her feet was a footloose man
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You'll get what you need
I went down to the demonstration
To get my fair share of abuse
Singing "we're gonna vent our frustrations
And if we don't we're gonna blow a 50-amp fuse"
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes you might find
You'll get what you need
I went down to the Chelsea drugstore
To get your prescription filled
I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy
And man, did he look pretty ill
We decided that we would have a soda
My favorite flavor, cherry red
I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy
And he said one word to me, and that was "dead,"
I said to him
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You'll get what you need
You'll get what you need--yeah, oh baby
I saw her today at the reception
In her glass was a bleeding man
She was practiced at the art of deception
Well I could tell by her bloodstained hands
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You just might find
You'll get what you need
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You just might find
You'll get what you need

Suddenly Last Summer
Suddenly Last Summer
Composer(s): Martha Davis
Performer(s): The Motels
It happened one summer
It happened one time
It happened forever
For a short time
A place for a moment
An end to a dream
Forever I loved you
Forever it seemed
One summer never ends
One summer never began
It keeps me standing still
It takes all my will
And then suddenly
Last summer
Sometimes I never leave
But sometimes I would
Sometimes I stay too long
Sometimes I would
Sometimes it frightens me
Sometimes it would
Sometimes I'm all alone
And wish that I could
One summer never ends
One summer never begins
It keeps me standing still
It takes all my will
And then suddenly
Last summer
And then suddenly
Last summer
One summer never ends
One summer never begins
It keeps me standing still
It takes all my will
And then suddenly
Last summer
And then suddenly
Last summer
Until suddenly
Last Summer
And then suddenly
Last summer
Until suddenly
Last Summer

You Can Never Stop Me Loving You
You Can Never Stop Me Loving You
Composer(s): Jean Slater; Ian Samwell
Performer(s): Johnny Tillotson
You can take your picture off your shelf
You can go around all by yourself
You can tell the others that we're through
But darling, I know one thing you can't do
You can never stop me loving you
You can never stop the way that my heart's beating too
You can never stop me loving you
That's one thing you'll never do
You can look away when I pass by
You can do your best to make me cry
You can break my heart and leave me blue
But darling I know one thing you can't do
You can hang the phone up when I call
You can say you don't love me at all
You can say its over and we're through
But darling I know one thing you can't do
You'll never stop me loving you
That's one thing you'll never do

As Each Happy Christmas
As Each Happy Christmas
Composer(s): Johann Hey - Johann Rink
As each happy Christmas dawns on
Earth again
Comes the Holy Christ child
In the hearts of men
Enters with His blessing into ev'ry home
Guides and guards our footsteps
As we go and come
All unknown, beside me
He will ever stand
And will safely lead me
With His own right hand

You Can Make Me Free
You Can Make Me Free
Composer(s): Billy Joel
Performer(s): Billy Joel
You can make me free
You can make me smile
You can make me be
Like a little child
You can melt the ice that chills my body
You can dry my every tear
You make the lonely hours disappear
You can make me free
You can make me rise
You can make me see
So open up my eyes
Don't you know my only real moments
Are the ones I spend with you
How I long to drink some wine again with you
I can take to the skies
I can soar like a bird with its heart full of song
Won't you color my eyes
I've been waiting so long
You can make me free
You can make me cry
You can make it so much better
If you would only try
And if I must wait a lonely lifetime
Until I am with you, my love
I will wait but you'll be what I'm dreamin' of
I can take to the skies
I can soar like a bird with his heart full of song
Won't you coler my eyes
I've been waiting so long
You can make me free
You can make me cry
You can make it so much better
If you would only try
And if I must wait a lonely lifetime
Until I am with you, my love
I will wait but you'll be what I'm dreamin' of
I can take to the skies
I can soar like a bird with his heart full of song
Won't you coler my eyes
I've been waiting so long
You can make me free
You can make me cry
You can make it so much better
If you would only try
And if I must wait a lonely lifetime
Until I am with you, my love
I will wait but you'll be what I'm dreamin' of
You can make me free
You can make me cry
You can make it so much better
If you would only try

Composer(s): John Farrar - Charles Keith - Leslie Sebastian
Performer(s): Cliff Richard
She walks in I'm suddenly a hero
I'm taken in my hopes begin to rise
Look at me can't you tell I'd be so
Thrilled to see the message in your eyes
You make it seem I'm so close to my dream
And then suddenly it's all there
Suddenly the wheels are in motion
And I I'm ready to sail any ocean
Suddenly I don't need the answers
Cos I I'm ready to take all my chances with you
How can I feel you're all that matters
I'd rely on anything you say
I'll take care that no illusions shatter
If you dare to say what you should say
You make it seem I'm so close to my dream
And then suddenly it's all there
Suddenly the wheels are in motion
And I I'm ready to sail any ocean
Suddenly I don't need the answers
Cos I I'm ready to take all my chances with you
Why do I feel so alive when you're near
There's no way any hurt can get thru'
Longing to spend every moment of the day with you
Suddenly the wheels are in motion
And I I'm ready to sail any ocean
Suddenly I don't need the answers
Cos I I'm ready to take all my chances with you

I'm Sorry For You, My Friend
Composer(s): Hank Williams
First recording/First release by: Hank Williams - 1951/1952
Covered by multiple other artists
You've known so long that you were wrong
But still you had your way
You told her lies and alibis
And hurt her more each day
But now your conscience bothers you
You've reached your journey's end
You're asking me for sympathy
I'm sorry for you my friend
You laughed inside each time she cried
You tried to make her blue
She tagged along through right and wrong
Because she worshipped you
You know that you're the one to blame
There's no use to pretend
Today's the day you start to pay
I'm sorry for you my friend
Today as she walked arm in arm
At someone else's side
It made you stop and realize
That time has turned the tide
You should have known you'd be alone
'Cause cheaters never win
You tried and lost, now pay the cost
I'm sorry for you my friend

You Can Have Him
You Can Have Him
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
First release: Mary McCarty & Allyn Ann McLerie - 1949
Covered by multiple other artists
Versions In Other Languages:
1968 - Hou Je Van 'M (Corry Brokken)
1961 - Tu Peux Le Prendre (Dalida)
Maisie:
You can have him
I don't want him
He's not worth fighting for
Besides there's plenty more where he came from
I don't want him
You can have him
I'm giving him the sack
And he can go right back where he came from
I could never make him happy
He'd be better off with you
I'm afraid I never loved him
All I ever wanted to do was
Run my fingers thru his curly locks
Mend his underwear and darn his socks
Fetch his slippers and remove his shoes
Wipe his glasses when he read the news
Rub his forehead with a gentle touch
Mornings after when he's had too much
Kiss him gently when he cuddled near
Give him babies one for ev'ry year, so you see
I don't want him, you can have him
You can have him, I don't want him
For he's not the man for me
Monique:
You can have him
I don't want him
He's not worth fighting for
Besides there's plenty more where he came from
I don't want him
You can have him
He isn't my concern
And he can just return where he came from
I would look a trifle silly
Taking him away from you
That was never my intention
All I ever wanted to do was
Close the window while he soundly slept
Raid the icebox where the food is kept
Cook a breakfast that would please him most
Eggs and coffee and some buttered toast
Wake him gently with a breakfast tray
After breakfast clear the things away
Bring the papers and when they've been read
Spend the balance of the day in bed, so you see
I don't want him, you can have him
You can have him, I don't want him
For he's not the man for me

That Darn Cat
That Darn Cat
Composer(s): Richard M. Sherman - Robert B. Sherman
Performer(s): Bobby Darin
While a city sleeps, every night he creeps
just surveying his domain
He roams around like he owns the town
He’s the king that makes that claim
He knows every trick, doesn’t miss a lick
when it comes to keeping fat
Some city slicker, no one is quicker than…
That Darn Cat!
Every nook and cranny, and garbage canny
he inspects so thoroughly
When he’s on his rounds, nothing’s out of bounds
to his curiosity
He can smile and purr at a pretty her
til she don’t know where she’s at
Nose like a geiger, oh what a tiger is…
That Darn Cat!
He’s a sly old codger, an artful dodger
a scrounger unsurpassed
A ball of fire, a 9 live wire
Who just can’t be out-classed
Yeah, this midnight rover, he lives in clover
It’s an art he’s got down pat
Never was a greater, smooth operator than…
That Darn Cat!
