How Does The Wine Taste?
How Does The Wine Taste?
Composer(s): Matt Dubbey; Harold Karr
Performer(s): Barbra Streisand; Vikki Carr;
Kristopher McDowell; Carmen McRae
How does the wine taste?
Does it stain your lips?
What is the fruit-like?
Just beyond my finger tips?
Just out of reach I see so much
I cannot taste and mustn't touch
Tied to my little world
My safe little world
What would it be like
If I broke the string?
Would it be lovely
And a little frightening?
There is so much I've never understood
How does the wine taste? is it good?
How does the wine taste?
Does it make you glow?
How does the wine taste?
How does the wine taste?
How does the wine taste?
I think you know!
Ooom...

A Million Miles To The City
A Million Miles To The City
Composer(s): Tom T. Hall
Performer(s): Tom T. Hall; Bobby Bare
I remember it now we were kids back then living down on the farm
We were told that the city could only bring us harm
Well how far away is the city you know that's a great big town
And Barbara said why it's a million miles and then the story got around
It's a million miles to the city from the hills and valleys we know
It's a million miles to the city and some day we all wanna go
There was a town nearby but a town is a town and a city that's somethin' else
Our daddy had been to a city but he never was much help
The buildings're taller than oak trees ah but we knew better than that
'Cause ain't nobody could climb that high the city was wide and flat
It's a million miles...
The years have passed and we have grown and traveled far and wide
The cities have changed the kids we were we see it in each other's eyes
Lord I'd love to go back to those hills again to the boy I used to be
Where the leaves in the wind and the whippoorwills
Were all just a part of the land like me
It's a million miles...

Prrrrrrr
Bye Bye

A Million Miles Away Behind The Door
A Million Miles Away Behind The Door
Composer(s): Alan Jay Lerner - André Previn
Performer(s): Anita Gordon
Send back the world
There's too much night for me
The sky is much too high
To shelter me when darkness falls
Four cabin walls
Would be just right for me
I need a threshold I can cross
When I can sit and gather moss
Forevermore
A million miles away behind the door
Roll up the plains
There's too much view for me
There's so much space between
The waiting heart, and whispered word
It's never heard
One room will do for me
Where every evening I can stare
At someone smiling from his chair
Across the floor
A million miles away behind the door
Where every evening I can stare
At someone smiling from his chair
Across the floor
A million miles away behind the door
No fears
No fools
No lies
No rules
Just doing with my life
What life is for
A million miles away behind the door

How Does It Feel?
How Does It Feel?
Composer(s): Joe Sherman; George David Weiss
Performer(s): Nat King Cole
How does it feel when you find that your dreams are through?
How does it feel when you know that the laugh's on you?
Thought you were smart for breaking my heart
When you took that exit bow
Someone you met has made you forget, so who's the smart one now?
How does it feel when you find that your big romance
Wasn't so real, it was only a song and dance?
Maybe it's fun to kiss and then run
And hurt somebody too
But how does it feel
Now that it's happened to you?
But how does it feel now that it's happened to
How does it feel, now that it's happened
But how does it feel
Now that it's happened to you?

A Million Miles Away
A Million Miles Away
Composer(s): David Paich
Performer(s): Toto
I don't want to know the reason why you don't love me
I don't want to know the reason why you don't care
I don't want to know the reason why you're leavin' me
I'm not the only one that lost my love way down there - way down there
I don't want to hear the reason why you don't need me
I don't want to hear the reason why you don't stay
I don't want to hear the reason why you're seeing him
All I know is that I want you back, but you're
A million miles away and it's killin' me inside
There's a stranger in a carriage and he's takin' her out tonight
The devil's ridin' on a full moon and he sends his love
When I'm a million miles away
I don't want to be the reason why you don't love me
And I don't want to be the reason why you don't care
I don't want to be the reason why you're leavin' me
I'm not the only one that lost my love
A million miles away and it's killin' me inside
There's a stranger in a carriage and he's takin' her out tonight
The devil's ridin' on a full moon and he sends his love
When I'm a million miles away
He sends his love and I'm a hundred million miles away

How Do You Sleep?
How Do You Sleep?
Composer(s): John Lennon
Performer(s): John Lennon;
and various other artists
So Sgt. Pepper took you by surprise
You better see right through that mother's eyes
Those freaks was right when they said you was dead
The one mistake you made was in your head
Ah, how do you sleep?
Ah, how do you sleep at night?
You live with straights who tell you you was king
Jump when your momma tell you anything
The only thing you done was yesterday
And since you're gone you're just another day
Ah, how do you sleep?
Ah, how do you sleep at night?
Ah, how do you sleep?
Ah, how do you sleep at night?
A pretty face may last a year or two
But pretty soon they'll see what you can do
The sound you make is music to my ears
You must have learned something in all those years
Ah, how do you sleep?
Ah, how do you sleep at night?

A Million Dreams Ago
A Million Dreams Ago
Composer(s): Lew Quadling - Eddy Howard - Dick Jurgens
Performer(s): Harry Cool
and multiple other artists
I can remember love's burning ember
When after the laughter came tears
Each word that was spoken, I kept as a token
Among my souvenirs...
You told me it was so, a million dreams ago
You held me in your arms, a million dreams ago
So many dreams have flown, so many nights alone
I guess I should have known, it couldn't be
I'll lock my mem'ries here in my heart
And here in my heart they'll stay
And through the years they'll always be part
A part of a lovely day
Goodbye, good luck old friend
I'll smile and just pretend
There was no end
A million dreams ago

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

Ay como el mio
Dejar y la vive
Hay en este mundo de tristeza
Dejar y la vive
A mi manera
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
