Santa Rosa


Santa Rosa
Composer(s): Benny Andersson; Björn Ulvaeus
Performer(s): ABBA



I'd give anything to be back home in Santa Rosa
How I wish this road would take me home where I belong
Cos I have found no other place where I would stay
I'm tired and broke, my dreams have failed along the way

I'd give anything to be back home in Santa Rosa
Though I wonder what my folks would think about me now
I guess I've changed like people do when things go wrong
But in the end, somehow I know we'll get along

Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
Santa Rosa, I'll be back to stay
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
I'm on my way
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
Santa Rosa, I'll be back to stay
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba

I'd give anything to be back home in Santa Rosa
How I wish to see the old house where I used to live
And all my friends, will they be there when I come home
How I regret the day when I set out to roam

Marshmallow World


Marshmallow World Composer(s): Peter de Rose; Carl Sigman Performer(s): Bing Crosby and various other artists



Ahhhh, it's a marshmallow world in the winter When the snow comes to cover the ground It's the time for play, it's a whipped cream day I wait for it the whole year round! Those are marshmallow clouds being friendly In the arms of the evergreen trees And the sun is red like a pumpkin head It's shining so your nose won't freeze! The world is your snowball, see how it grows That's how it goes, whenever it snows The world is your snowball just for a song Get out and roll it along! It's a yum-yummy world made for sweethearts Take a walk with your favorite girl It's a sugar date, so what if spring is late In winter it's a marshmallow world! It's a marshmallow day in the winter When the snow comes to cover the ground It's the time for play, it's a whipped cream day And we wait for it the whole year round! Just you remember that Those are marshmallow clouds being friendly In the arms of the evergreen trees And the sun is red like a pumpkin head It's shining so your nose won't freeze! You must remember that The world is your snowball, see how it grows That's how it goes whenever it snows The world is your snowball just for a song Get out and roll it along! It's a yum-yummy world made for sweethearts Take a walk with your favorite girl It's a sugary date, so what if spring is late In winter it's a marshmallow world... In winter it's a marshmallow world... In winter it's a marshmallow world...

Santa Maria De La Mer


Santa Maria De La Mer
Composer(s): Eddy Marnay; Christian Bruhn
Performer(s): Mireille Mathieu



La statue regarde la mer qui vagabonde
dans le bleu du ciel sans hiver au bout du monde
et la mère qui porte l'enfant a le cœur tendre
aux prières des paysans qui lui demandent

Plein de pluie sur nos plaines
Santa Maria
plein de blé sur nos terres dans nos maisons pleines de fleurs
Protégez ceux que j'aime
Santa Maria
Donnez-leur la lumière d'un sourire au cœur

La statue a des amoureux pleins de promesse
et parfois je la prie des yeux quand tu me blesses
et la mère qui portent l'enfant n'a qu'une histoire
et c'est celle de tous ces gens venus pour croire

Plein de pluie sur nos plaines
Santa Maria
plein de blé sur nos terres dans nos maisons pleines de fleurs
Protégez ceux que j'aime
Santa Maria
Donnez-leur la lumière d'un sourire au cœur
Donnez-leur la lumière d'un sourire au cœur

Marie-Noël


Marie-Noël Composer(s): Robert Charlebois; Claude Gauthier Performer(s): Robert Charlebois and multiple other artists



Quand décembre revient
Quand la neige, neige
Ton visage me revient
En rafales de rires d'étoiles

C'est nous deux à l'envers
Quand mes rêves rêvent
À ces noëls rouges et verts
Nos huit ans, nos amours d'hiver

Marie-Noël, Marie-Noël
Petite fille, joujou fragile
Petit Noël, de mes Noëls d'enfants

Quand décembre revient
Quand résonne, sonne
Minuit, mon cœur s'en souvient
Des manèges de boules de neige

Tes petits grands yeux verts
Et ta bouche rouge
Faisaient tourner à l'envers
Mon traîneau, mon soleil d'hiver

Marie-Noël, Marie-Noël
Petite fille, joujou fragile
Petit Noël, de mes Noëls d'enfants

Plus décembre revient
Plus la neige, neige
Sous mes Noëls rouges et verts
Mes huit ans, mes amours d'hiver

Marie-Noël, Marie-Noël
Petite fille, joujou fragile
Petit Noël, de mes Noëls d'enfants

Plus décembre revient
Plus la neige, neige
Et plus mon cœur se souvient
Nos huit ans, nos amours d'hiver

Santa Maria


Santa Maria
Performer(s): Günther Behrle; Christian Bruhn
Performer(s): Mireille Mathieu



Santa Maria, dans le grand vacarme du monde
Entendre une larme qui tombe
Est-ce que ça t'arrive quelque fois
Santa Maria, il y a temps de nuits que j'espère
Lire dans ton sourire de pierre
Qu'un jour mon amour me reviendras

Toi qui as trop souffert
Pour ne pas calmer ma souffrance
Toi vers qui les prières s'élèvent
Même au cœur du silence, ma seule chance
Santa Maria, qu'il me revienne
Santa Maria, ne m'abandonne pas

Santa Maria, dans le grand vacarme du monde
Entendre une larme qui tombe
Est-ce que ça t'arrive quelque fois
Santa Maria, j'avais déserté les églises
Il faut que l'amour m'y conduise
Mais c'est le meilleur chemin vers toi

Une femme te supplie dans le silence de ta chapelle
L'entendras-tu parmi la litanie des voix qui t'appellent
Tu prie pour elle
Santa Maria, prie pour ma peine
Santa Maria ne m'abandonne pas

Santa Maria, dans le grand vacarme du monde
Cette pauvre larme qui tombe
Je suis sûr que toi tu l'entendras
Santa Maria, il y a tant de nuits que j'espère
Lire dans ton sourire de pierre
Qu'un jour mon amour me reviendras

Santa Maria, dans le grand vacarme du monde
Cette pauvre larme qui tombe
Je suis sûr que toi tu l'entendras

Santa Maria, Santa Maria

Madre, En La Puerta Hay Un Niño


Madre, En La Puerta Hay Un Niño
Composer(s): M. Castillo
Performer(s): Alfredo Kraus & Renata Scotto;
and various other artists



Madre en la puerta hay un niño
más hermoso que el sol bello
diciendo que tiene frío
porque viene casi en cuertos
Pues dile que entre y se calentará
porque en esta tierra
ya no hay caridad
porque en esta tierra
ya no hay caridad

Entró el Niño y se sentó
y mientras se calentaba
le preguntó la patrona
¿De qué tierra y de qué patria?
Mi Padre es del Cielo
mi Madre también
Yo bajé a la tierra para padecer
Yo bajé a la tierra para padecer

Hazle la cama a este Niño
en la alcoba y con primor
No me la haga usted señora
que mi cama es un rincón
Mi Padre es del Cielo
mi Madre también
Yo bajé a la tierra para padecer
Yo bajé a la tierra para padecer

Santa Lucia


Santa Lucia
(Traditional)



Sul mare luccica l’astro d’argento
Placida è l’onda, prospero è il vento
Sul mare luccica l’astro d’argento
Placida è l’onda, prospero è il vento
Venite all’agile barchetta mia
Santa Lucia! Santa Lucia!
Venite all’agile barchetta mia

Con questo zeffiro, così soave
Oh, com’è bello star sulla nave!
Con questo zeffiro, così soave
Oh, com’è bello star sulla nave!
Su passegieri, venite via!
Santa Lucia! Santa Lucia!
Su passegieri, venite via!

In fra le tende, bandir la cena
In una sera così serena
In fra le tende, bandir la cena
In una sera così serena
Chi non dimanda, chi non desia
Santa Lucia! Santa Lucia!
Chi non dimanda, chi non desia
Santa Lucia! Santa Lucia!

Mare sì placida, vento sì caro
Scordar fa i triboli al marinaro
Mare sì placida, vento sì caro
Scordar fa i triboli al marinaro
E va gridando con allegria
Santa Lucia! Santa Lucia!
E va gridando con allegria
Santa Lucia! Santa Lucia!

O dolce Napoli, o suol beato
Ove sorridere volle il creato
O dolce Napoli, o suol beato
Ove sorridere volle il creato
Tu sei l'impero dell’armonia
Santa Lucia! Santa Lucia!
Tu sei l'impero dell’armonia
Santa Lucia! Santa Lucia!

Or che tardate? Bella è la sera
Spira un’auretta fresca e leggiera
Or che tardate? Bella è la sera
Spira un’auretta fresca e leggiera
Venite all’agile barchetta mia
Santa Lucia! Santa Lucia!
Venite all’agile barchetta mia
Santa Lucia! Santa Lucia!

Macy's Window


Macy's Window
Composer(s): Mark Lindsay; Terry Melcher
Performer(s): Paul Revere & The Raiders



In Macy's window there's lots of pine
It's Christmas time
See the sidewalk Santa with his silver bell
Yes, he's doing well
Kids are climbing up on Santa's knee
They think it's all for free
Christmas help, in mini-skirts and painted smiles
Are driving daddy wild
Salvation Army bands play Christmas songs
But no one sings along
To cheer them on, the people drop a dime
It's Christmas time
I can hear sleigh bells ringing
Can you hear children singing?

Sans Toi M'amie


Sans Toi M'amie
Composer(s): Salvatore Adamo
Performer(s): Salvatore Adamo



Je sais que tout est fini j'ai perdu ta confiance
Néanmoins je te prie de m'accorder ma chance
Si devant mon remords tu restes indifférente

On ne peut te donner tors mais soit donc indulgente

Au long des joies que nous avons vécues
Au nom de l'amour que nous croyons perdu
Sans toi m'amie le temps est si lourd
Les heures et les jours sombre sans espoir sans toi mamie

Sans toi m'amie je vogue sans but
Je vogue perdue sous un ciel tout noir
Comprends que dans les rues tant de filles nous tentent
Et leur air ingénu nous torture et nous hante

Oh si je viens vers toi pour te confier ma voile
Toi tu me guideras, tu es ma bonne étoile
Sans toi m'amie le temps est si lourd
Les heures et les jours sombre sans espoir sans toi mamie

Love's In Our Hearts On Christmas Day


Love's In Our Hearts On Christmas Day Composer(s): Gary Haase; James Lowell; John Werking Performer(s): *NSync



Mmm oooo I know great distance still remains between us But there's good reason to hold on It's the happiest time of the year Filled with laughter and good cheer As you watch the snow Sweet love you'll hear me say You've got my heart on Christmas Inside my soul your love remains Love's in our hearts on Christmas day The days and weeks and months go by so slowly We are both wishing it would fly oh As the night begins to fall Twilight drowns the bedroom chill Such a rush of joy (rush of joy) And love, it comforts me And I do believe Love's in our hearts on Christmas Though far apart As one we pray Love's in our hearts on Christmas day A snowflake melts In your eye it turns to a tear But your cheek, it stays dry With your warm smile so near I have no fear We're gonna make it Ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo Love's in our hearts on Christmas Though far apart As one we pray Love's in our hearts on Christmas day Love's in our hearts on Christmas Though far apart As one we pray Love's in our hearts on Christmas day Love's in our hearts on Christmas Though far apart As one we pray Love's in our hearts on Christmas day

Love Has Come


Love Has Come
Composer(s): Amy Grant; Shane Keister; Michael W. Smith
Performer(s): Amy Grant



Hurry now wake up your eyes
Time for little ones to see
Daddy's got a big surprise
Hiding there beneath the Christmas tree
How they are like the child in me!
See the wonder in their eyes
Like a fairytale come true
One more time I realize
All the love our lives found in You

Love has come
For the world to know
As the wisemen knew
Such a long time ago
And I believe that angels sang
That hope had begun
When the God of Glory
Who is full of mercy
Sent His Son

If I could have a special dream
Coming true on Christmas morn'
I would want the world to see
How His Father smiled when Christ was born
The greatest gift the world has known!
So come on kids, look high and low
For all the toys you've dreamed to find
But I believe you'll never know
A greater joy than Jesus' love inside

(You gotta know!)
(Know!)
Love has come
For the world to know
As the wisemen knew
Such a long time ago
And I believe that angels sang
That hope had begun
When the God of Glory
Who is full of mercy
Yes, the God of Glory
Sent His Son

(Don't you know that)
Love has come
For the world to know, (know)
As the wisemen knew
Such a long time ago
And I believe that angels sang
That hope had begun
When the God of Glory
Who is full of mercy
Yes, the God of Glory
Sent His Son

Love has come
For the world to know
As the wisemen knew
Such a long time ago
And I believe that angels sang
That hope had begun
When the God of Glory
Who is full of mercy
Yes, the God of Glory
Sent His Son

(Don't you know)
Love has come
For the world to know
As the wisemen knew
Such a long time ago
And I believe that angels sang
That hope had begun
When the God of Glory
Who is full of mercy
Yes, the God of Glory
Sent His Son

(I can see that)
Love has come
For the world to know
As the wisemen knew
Such a long time ago

Sans La Nommer


Sans La Nommer
Composer(s): Georges Moustaki
Performer(s): Georges Moustaki



Je voudrais, sans la nommer
Vous parler d'elle
Comme d'une bien-aimée
D'une infidèle
Une fille bien vivante
Qui se réveille
A des lendemains qui chantent
Sous le soleil

C'est elle que l'on matraque
Que l'on poursuit que l'on traque
C'est elle qui se soulève
Qui souffre et se met en grève
C'est elle qu'on emprisonne
Qu'on trahit qu'on abandonne
Qui nous donne envie de vivre
Qui donne envie de la suivre
Jusqu'au bout, jusqu'au bout

Je voudrais, sans la nommer
Lui rendre hommage
Jolie fleur du mois de mai
Ou fruit sauvage
Une plante bien plantée
Sur ses deux jambes
Et qui trame en liberté
Ou bon lui semble

C'est elle que l'on matraque
Que l'on poursuit que l'on traque
C'est elle qui se soulève
Qui souffre et se met en grève
C'est elle qu'on emprisonne
Qu'on trahit qu'on abandonne
Qui nous donne envie de vivre
Qui donne envie de la suivre
Jusqu'au bout, jusqu'au bout

Je voudrais, sans la nommer
Vous parler d'elle
Bien-aimée ou mal aimée
Elle est fidèle
Et si vous voulez
Que je vous la présente
On l'appelle
Révolution Permanente!

C'est elle que l'on matraque
Que l'on poursuit que l'on traque
C'est elle qui se soulève
Qui souffre et se met en grève
C'est elle qu'on emprisonne
Qu'on trahit qu'on abandonne
Qui nous donne envie de vivre
Qui donne envie de la suivre
Jusqu'au bout, jusqu'au bout

Love Has Brought Him Here


Love Has Brought Him Here
Composer(s): Bob Carpenter; Tom Kell
Performer(s): The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band



In the crowded streets of this desert town
I’ve heard the rumor going ‘round
But it doesn’t seem the time or place
For a savior child to bring his grace
There’s too much trouble, greed and tears
Who could greet him, conscience clear?
And who among us would believe
Till the trumpets sound his song
That the promised one has come

Then a star came out and the cattle low
And the street turned bright with a mangers glow
I thought I heard the message clear that love has brought Him here

Who are these people, peasant poor
Who sit inside the stable door
Where is the sense in such a choice
What have we waited for
Seems a King should have much more

Then the star turned bright and the mother smiled
At this gift of life her precious child
I saw right then the message clear that love has brought Him here

Then the star came out and the cattle low
And the street shone bright with a manger’s glow
And this old world will one day know the love that’s brought Him here
The love that’s brought Him here
The love that’s brought Him here

Oh Sankofa, high on the Heavens you soar

Back to yesterday's sun, It will rekindle me
Rekindle the spirit into tomorrow and high on the wind

Looking For Christmas


Looking For Christmas
Composer(s): Clint Black
Performer(s): Clint Black



I’m looking for christmas, I’ve gotta find
Christmas, flying back in my mind
Does anyone know of this christmas, a long ago christmas
Sleigh bells ringing, carolers singing
Only bringing the long traveled message of love

I’m looking for christmas, in time for this
Christmas, a day far and away
And could a star show me christmas,
The town of old christmas
Where truth is ringing, a virgin’s
Bringing the newborn king and the
Lord’s own messiah of love

And I close my eyes and I’m kneeling there in the stall,
And could I be the wine man, sharing his wisdom,
Creating a kingdom for all

I’m looking for christmas, I know I’ll find christmas
Imparted right from the start
And everyone knows of this christmas
The very first christmas
Where christ is guiding, all with tidings
Still his light is residing here in us all

And I close my eyes, and a thousand lifetimes recall
Aren’t we all wise magi, sharing his wisdom,
Creating a kingdom
As born on this christmas and each christmas day
We are sharing his wisdom creating a kingdom
As born on this christmas and each
Christmas day that shall fall

Sanguine


Sanguine
Composer(s): Jacques Prévert; Henri Crolla
Yves Montand; Bob Castella; Jacques Prévert



La fermeture éclair a glissé sur tes reins
Et tout l'orage heureux de ton corps amoureux
Au beau milieu de l'ombre a éclaté soudain
Et ta robe en tombant sur le parquet ciré
N'a pas fait plus de bruit
Qu'une écorce d'orange
Tombant sur un tapis
Mais sous nos pieds
Ces petits boutons de nacre
Craquaient comme des pépins
Ô Sanguine joli fruit!
La pointe de ton sein
A tracé tendrement
La ligne de ma chance
Dans le creux de ma main.
Sanguine, joli fruit
Soleil de nuit

Lonely This Christmas


Lonely This Christmas
Composer(s): N. Chinn; M. Chapman
Performer(s): Mud



Try to imagine a house that's not a home
Try to imagine a christmas all alone
That's where I'll be
Since you left me

My tears would melt the snow
What can I do
Without you
I've got no place, no place to go

It'll be lonely this christmas
Without you to hold
It'll be lonely this christmas
Lonely and cold
It'll be cold so cold
Without you to hold
This christmas

Each time I remember the day you went away
And how I would listen to things you have to say
I just break down, as I look around
And the only things I see
Are emptiness and loneliness
And an unlit christmas Tree

It'll be lonely this christmas
Without you to hold
It'll be lonely this christmas
Lonely and cold
It'll be cold so cold
Without you to hold
This christmas

You remember last year, when you and I were together
We never thought there'd be an end
And I remember looking at you then
And I remember thinking that christmas must have been made
for us
Cause darlin' this is the time that you really need love
When it means so very very much

It'll be lonely this christmas
Without you to hold
It'll be lonely this christmas
Lonely and cold
It'll be cold so cold
Without you to hold
This christmas

Merry christmas darlin', wherever you are

Sangue E Pudins


Sangue E Pudins
Composer(s): Raimundo Fagner; Abel Silva
Performer(s): Raimundo Fagner



Não quero saber quem sou
Morro de medo
Nem quero saber aonde vou
É muito cedo
Talvez se eu arrancasse
De minha língua o sinal
Talvez se eu inventasse
O juízo final
Talvez se eu prometesse
Sangue e pudins
Ou se eu costurasse
A roupa dos querubins

Mas o que eu quero saber
É o que apronta
Esse lado do teu rosto
E o que faz o sossego morar
No que está posto
Não guardo segredo
Mas sou bem secreto
É que eu mesmo não acho
A chave de mim

Lonely Pup (In A Christmas Shop)


Lonely Pup (In A Christmas Shop)
Composer(s): Arthur Alexander
Performer(s): Adam Faith



Soft brown eyes that seem to say
Stop a while, I want to play
Would you, could you, do please stop
He's a lonely pup in a Christmas shop

Thank you lady, thank you sir
Is there someone else that you'd prefer
He's not selfish, just a flop
Though he wags his tail in a Christmas shop

Mister Santa, if you would
Send him someone, oh so good
Someone who will take him home
For ev'ryone to see

Christmas time, a Christmas tree
With a happy family
Pity him, he's got no Pop
He's a lonely pup in a Christmas shop

Mister Santa, if you would
Send him someone, oh so good
Someone who will take him home
For ev'ryone to see

Christmas time, a Christmas tree
With a happy family
Pity him, he's got no Pop
He's a lonely pup in a Christmas shop
