The Show Is Over


The Show Is Over
Composer(s): Petula Clark
Performer(s): Petula Clark
The show is over now
Our song is dying
This is the end my friend
There isn't any more
You played the part so well
There's no denying
For I believed each lie from lips that I adore
I was a fool to feel that your love was real
But how was I to know it was just a great big show
The stage is empty now
the lights are fading
and as the curtain falls
my heart calls tell me why
the show is over now and here am I
(I was a fool to feel that your love was real)
But how was I to know it was all a great big show
The stage is empty now
The lights are fading
And as the curtain falls
My heart calls tell me why
The show is over now and here am I

À Mi-Chemin De L'existence


À Mi-Chemin De L'existence
Composer(s): Yves Duteil
Performer(s): Yves Duteil
À mi-chemin de l'existence
Où plus rien n'est écrit d'avance
Je m'éveille au-dessus du sol
Ma conscience a pris son envol
Je n'étais ni bon ni mauvais
Et pourtant maintenant je sais
Que je peux devenir meilleur
Ouvrir encore plus grand mon cœur
J'ai découvert dans ton amour
Des secrets si forts et si lourds
Qu'il sera plus doux plus léger
D'être à deux pour les partager
Ce qui s'écrit du temps passé
Jamais plus ne peut s'effacer
Mais il reste la vie entière
Pour regarder vers la lumière
Et si des chagrins des blessures
Sont gravés dans notre aventure
Il en reste aussi le meilleur
En joies profondes et en bonheur
J'ai compris qu'il fallait vouloir
Pour bâtir et pour s'émouvoir
À vieillir auprès de ton cœur
L'avenir ne me fait pas peur
Je donnerais ma vie en gage
Pour tout l'amour de ton visage
Et le reste de mes années
S'il fallait, pour recommencer
Chaque jour en tournant la page
Ressemble au début d'un voyage
C'est aujourd'hui que je suis né
Pour revivre et pour espérer
À mi-chemin de l'existence
Où plus rien n'est écrit d'avance
Je suis bien, au-dessus du sol
Mon amour a repris son vol

How Do You Keep The Music Playing?


How Do You Keep The Music Playing?
Composer(s): Alan Bergman; Marilyn Bergman; Michel Legrand
Performer(s): James Ingram;
and various other artists
How do you keep the music playing?
How do you make it last?
How do you keep the song from fading too fast?
How do you lose yourself to someone?
And never lose your ways
How do you not run out of new things to say?
And since we're always changing
How can it be the same?
And tell me how year after year
You're sure your heart will fall apart
Each time you hear his name
I know the way I feel for you
It's now or never
The more I love the more that i'm afraid
That in your eyes I may not see forever..
Forever...
If we can be the best of lovers
Yet be the best of friends
If we can try with everyday to make it better as it grows
With any luck, then I suppose
The music never ends
I know the way I feel for you
It's now or never!
(How do you keep the music playing?)
The more I love the more that I'm afraid
(How do you make it last)
That in your eyes I may not see forever
Forever...
(How do you keep the song from fading, keep the song from fading too fast)
If we can be the best of lovers
Yet be the best of friends
If we can try with everyday to make it better as it grows
With any luck, then I suppose
The music never ends

A Mi Próximo Amor


A Mi Próximo Amor
Composer(s): Miguel Gallardo
Performer(s): Miguel Gallardo
A mi próximo amor le daré lo mejor
que me ha dado la vida
mi sonrisa más fiel, mi infantil madurez
y mis horas vividas
A mi próximo amor le daré tanto amor
como tenga conmigo
y en sus ojos veré, y en sus manos veré
como crece ante mí
Le daré la inquietud
de los años más bellos, que viví
y jamás sentirá, la profunda maldad
que aprendí junto a ti
Ese próximo amor será tan de verdad
como el fuego y el viento
no tendrá que mentir, ni tendré que decir
nunca más que lo siento
será fuerte y capaz, será grande y audaz
como las tempestades
y pequeño a la vez, refrescante a la vez
como lluvia de abril
Y en su piel grabaré
la venganza más dulce, para ti
cuando te hablen de mi, y te duela saber
que me siento feliz
En mi próximo amor no habrá nunca rencor
ni silencios que hieran
y gritar será hablar, y el hablar será un mar
de palabras sinceras
sin dolor la veré junto a mi envejecer
sin dejar de ser niños
y hasta el último adiós, sentiremos los dos
la alegría de vivir
Yo sé bien que ese amor
es un sueño que el odio, crea en mi
pero quiero pensar, para herirte aún más
en mi próximo amor
En su piel grabaré
la venganza más dulce, para ti
cuando te hablen de mi
y te duela saber, que me siento feliz
Yo sé bien que ese amor
es un sueño que el odio, crea en mi
pero quiero pensar, para herirte aún más
en mi próximo amor

How Do You Do, Mr. Right?


How Do You Do, Mr. Right?
Composer(s): Vivian Ellis
Performer(s): Eve Beck; Flanagan & Allen
How do you do, Mr. Right?
Can it be true? Well, it might
I have searched the whole world over
It’s like looking for a four-leaf clover
Out of the blue, Mr. Right, but
Now I’ve met you, Mr. Right
I’ll stick like glue, day and night
If you were to make advances
And imagine that your chances might be bright
You’d be right, Mr. Right

Okay mijn tijd is om
Dit wordt een lied van afscheidswoorden
Ik zong mijn levenslied voor iedereen
Die het graag hoorden
Dat lied is net als ik
Het wil aan u veel liefde geven
Mijn lied, mijn levenslied
Dat is mijn leven
Al werd ik vaak verguisd
Veel pijn doen die herinneringen
Ik bleef mijn levenslied met hart en ziel
Toch altijd zingen
De weg die ik moest gaan
Die ging beslist niet over rozen
Maar toch, ik zette door
Ik had gekozen
Ik heb gebracht waar u van hield
En voor kritiek nog nooit geknield
Er zei een stem diep in mijn hart
Geef het niet op, vergeet je smart
Dus zong ik door, altijd maar door
Dit was mijn leven
Ik denk zo graag terug
Met dankbaarheid in mijn gedachten
Hoe vaak de mensen mij
Spontaan en blij hun bloemen brachten
De liefde en het applaus
Die zij mij steeds hebben gegeven
Die draag ik in mijn hart
Mijn hele leven
En breekt voor mij de tijd eens aan
Dat ik voor altijd heen moet gaan
Dan zal mijn laatste bede zijn
Aan alle mensen groot en klein
Vergeet me niet, ik had u lief
Mijn hele leven

How Do You Do It? (Gerry & The Pacemakers)


How Do You Do It?
Composer(s): Mitch Murray
Performer(s): Gerry & The Pacemakers
How do you do what you do to me?
I wish I knew
If I knew how you do it to me
I'd do it to you
How do you do what you do to me?
I'm feeling blue
Wish I knew how you do it to me
But I haven't a clue
You give me a feeling in my heart
Like an arrow passin' through it
'spose that you think you're very smart
But won't you tell me how do you do it?
How do you do what you do to me?
If I only knew
Then perhaps you'd fall for me
Like I fell for you
You give me a feeling in my heart
Like an arrow passin' through it
'spose that you think you're very smart
But won't you tell me how do you do it?
How do you do what you do to me?
If I only knew
Then perhaps you'd fall for me
Like I fell for you
When I do it to you

Hay en este mundo de tristeza
Dejar y la vive

Yo quiero ser
Ay nada mas
Preferiré y recordar
Un nuevo amor
Tanto mejor
Quisiera olvidar
Tanto la dejar
Quisiera vivir
Ay nada mas
O si my way

How Do You Do It?


How Do You Do It?
Composer(s): E.Y. Harburg; Lewis Gensler
How do you do it?
How do you do what you do?
I've been all through it
But this is something new
Your kiss is voodoo
How do you get me this way?
The things that you do
Make other thrills passé
You took the old-fashioned passion
And reorganized it
You took the old kind of love
And demoralized it
How do you do it?
I ought to drop you, but oh!
How do you do it?
What makes me love you so?

El final se hacerca ya
Lo esperare serenamente
Ya ves que yo he sido asi
Te lo dire sinceramente
Vivi la inmensidad
Sin conocer jamas fronteras
Jugue sin descansar
Y a mi manera
Jamas vivi un amor
Que para mi fuera, fuera importante
Corte solo la flor
Y lo mejor de cada instante
Viaje y disfrute
No se si mas que otro cualquiera
Si bien, todo esto fue
A mi manera
Tal vez llore o tal vez rei
Tal vez gane o tal vez perdi
Ahora se que fui feliz
Que si llore tambien ame
Puedo seguir hasta el final
A mi manera
Quizas tambien dude
Cuando yo mas me divertia
Quizas yo desprecie
Aquello que yo no comprendia
Hoy se que firme fui
Y que afronte ser como era
Y asi logre vivir
A mi manera
Porque sabras
Que un hombre en fin
Conoceras por su vivir
No hay porque hablar ni que decir
Ni recordar ni que fingir
Puedo seguir hasta el final
A mi manera
Si, a mi manera

How Do You Do It That Way?


How Do You Do It That Way?
Composer(s): Ruth Naomi Floyd; Victoria Spivey
Performer(s): Victoria Spivey & Louis Armstrong
Have you ever had a feeling
that someone would come out leadin' you?
If you had it's not so bad unless you found that it is all untrue
Take a good girl to keep her man, some can't do it, others can
I'm no chump but I would jump if I could find someone that's not unlike me too
Oh when the river runs, flowers are bloomin' in May
And if you get good business, how do you do it that way?
Streetwalkin' women, they are happy and gay
But I'm never happy, how do you get that way?
I want a man to be near, because he bring good care
But the men don't like me, they don't seem to care
Now they can come and go, to and fro every day
But I can't make 'em like me, how do you do it that way?
Now if you want somethin' good, you mustn't knock on wood
Just get a good man to look up under your hood
And when the rooster and the hen go to the barn to play
Oh the hen has chickens, how do they do it that way?

A Mi Hermano


A Mi Hermano
Performer(s): Fernando Ubiergo
Hermano, amigo, hermano
la noche me ha atrapado
como en un sueño largo
lanzándome al pasado
Y recuerdo tu niñez...
recuerdo mi niñez... de ayer
La radio nos decía:
"llegó el hombre a la Luna"
mientras que tú subías
a un árbol de aventuras
tratando de alcanzar
a tu corta edad... el sol
Hermano, aquel tiempo se fue
como un barquito de papel
que al norte de nuestro jardín
perdió su edén
sin brújula y sin capitán
un día tendrá que volver
y llegaremos a esa edad
con otra piel
Hermano, amigo, hermano
compañero de patio
pirata de los nidos
duende de los manzanos,
recuerdo tu niñez
recuerdo mi niñez... de ayer
Mientras la radio hablaba
de una guerra lejana
tú me preguntabas
si el mundo tiene alas
para poder volar
para poder llegar... al sol

Composer(s): H.V. Hoof; H.V. Hemert
Performer(s): Mouth & MacNeal
Once I said I wanted you, I don't remember why
I often wonder if it's true that you could make me cry
I only know it's long ago you said "I love you too"
But I got one solution left we're gonna start anew
How do you do? Mm, mm, I thought why not na na na na
Just me and you and then we can na na na na
Just like before and you will say na na na na
Please give me more and you will think na na na na
Hey, that's what I'm living for
How do you do? Mm, mm, I thought why not na na na na
Just me and you and then we can na na na na

Please give me more and you will think na na na na
Hey, that's what I'm living for
Once I said I wanted you, and I remember why
I often wonder if it's true you still can make me cry
And now it's not so long ago you said "I love you too"
'Cause I had one solution left and that's to start anew
How do you do? Mm, mm, I thought why not na na na na
Just me and you and then we can na na na na
Just like before and you will say na na na na
Please give me more and you will think na na na na

How Deep Is Your Love


How Deep Is Your Love
Composer(s): Barry Gibb; Robin Gibb; Maurice Gibb
Performer(s): The Bee Gees
I know your eyes in the morning sun
I feel you touch me in the pouring rain
And the moment that you wander far from me
I wanna feel you in my arms again
And you come to me on a summer breeze
Keep me warm in your love and then softly leave
And it's me you need to show ....
How deep is your love? (how deep is your love?)
I really need to learn
'Cause we're living in a world of fools
Breaking us down
When they all should let us be
We belong to you and me
I believe in you
You know the door to my very soul
You're the light in my deepest darkest hour
You're my saviour when I fall
And you may not think
I care for you
When you know down inside
That I really do
And it's me you need to show ....
How deep is your love? (how deep is your love?)
I really need to learn
'Cause we're living in a world of fools
Breaking us down
When they all should let us be
We belong to you and me
How deep is your love? (how deep is your love?)
I really need to learn
'Cause we're living in a world of fools
Breaking us down
When they all should let us be
We belong to you and me
How deep is your love? (how deep is your love?) ......

Message To My Mother


Message To My Mother
Composer(s): Hank Williams Sr.
Performer(s): Hank Williams Sr.; Iron Horse
Take this message to my mother
It will fill her heart with joy
Tell her that I've met my Saviour
God has saved her wand'ring boy
The tears and sorrow I have caused her
How I wish I could repay
But tell her I'll be waiting for her
We'll meet in heaven some glad day
How she cried when I left her
I know it filled her heart with pain
She said, "Son, please don't leave me
For we may never meet again"
Take this message to my mother
It will fill her heart with joy
Tell her that I've met my Saviour
God has saved her wand'ring boy
Years have passed since that parting
But I know she waits and prays
Soon I'll cross that dark river
Please let her know that I was saved
Take this message to my mother
It will fill her heart with joy
Tell her that I've met my Saviour
God has saved her wand'ring boy

Composer(s): Irving Berlin
Performer(s): Julie London;
and various other artists
How much do I love you?
I'll tell you no lie
How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?
How many times in a day
Do I think of you?
How many roses are
Sprinkled with dew?
How far would I travel
Just to be where you are?
How far is the journey
From here to a star?
And if I ever lost you
How much would I cry?
How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?

I just got your letter baby
Too bad you can't come home
I swear I’m goin' crazy
Sittin' here all alone
Since your gone
I got a mess of blues
I ain't slept a week since Sunday
I can't eat a thing all day
Every day is just blue Monday
Since you've been away
Since your gone
I got a mess of blues
Whoops there goes a teardrop
Rollin' down my face
If you cry when you're in love
It sure ain't no disgrace
Whoops there goes a teardrop
Rollin' down my face
If you cry when you're in love
It sure ain't no disgrace
I gotta get myself together
Before I lose my mind
I'm gonna catch the next train goin'
And leave my blues behind
Since your gone
I got a mess of blues
I got a mess of blues
