When Your Hair Has Turned To Silver
When Your Hair Has Turned To Silver
Composer(s): Peter De Rose; Charles Tobias
Performer(s): Vera Lynn;
and various other artists
When your hair has turned to silver
I will love you just the same
I will only call you sweetheart
That will always be your name . . .
Through a garden filled with roses
Down the sunset trail we'll stray
When your hair has turned to silver
I will love you as today . . .
Through a garden filled with roses
Down the sunset trail we'll stray
When your hair has turned to silver
I will love you as today . . .

Alabama Bound
Alabama Bound
Composer(s): Leadbelly
Performer(s): Leadbelly
I'm Alabama bound
I'm Alabama bound
And if the train don't stop and turn around
I'm Alabama bound
Oh, don't you leave me here
Oh, don't you leave me here
But if you must go anyhow
Just leave a dime for beer
Oh don't you be like me
Oh don't you be like me
Drink your good sweet cherry wine
And let that whiskey be
Well your hair don't curve
And your eyes ain't blue
Well if you don't want me, Polly Ann
Well I don't want you

When You Wore A Tulip
When You Wore A Tulip
Composer(s): Percy Wenrich; Jack Mahoney
Performer(s): Jerry Lee Lewis;
and various other artists
When you wore a tulip
A sweet, yellow tulip
And I wore a big red rose
When you caressed me
'Twas then Heaven blessed me
Such a blessing no one knows
You made life cheery
When you called me dearie
'Twas down where the blue grass grows
Oh, it was sweeter than julep
When you wore a tulip
And I wore a big red rose

Ala De Colibrí
Ala De Colibrí
Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Hoy me propongo fundar un partido de sueños
talleres donde reparar alas de colibríes
Se admiten tarados, enfermos, gordos sin amor
tullidos, enanos, vampiros y días sin sol
Hoy voy a patrocinar el candor desahuciado
esa crítica masa de Dios que no es pos ni moderna
Se admiten proscritos, rabiosos, pueblos sin hogar
desaparecidos deudores del banco mundial
Por una calle
descascarada
por una mano
bien apretada
Hoy voy a hacer asamblea de flores marchitas
de deshechos de fiesta infantil, de piñatas usadas
de sombras en pena -del reino de lo natural
que otorgan licencia a cualquier artefacto de amar
Por el levante
por el poniente
por el deseo
por la simiente
por tanta noche
por el sol diario
en compañía
y en solitario
Ala de colibrí
liviana y pura
Ala de colibrí
para la cura

When You Wish Upon A Star
When You Wish Upon A Star
Composer(s): Leigh Harline; Ned Washington
Performer(s): Cliff Edwards
When you wish upon a star
Makes no difference who you are
Anything your heart desires
Will come to you
If your heart is in your dream
No request is too extreme
When you wish upon a star
As dreamers do
Fate is kind
She brings to those who love
The sweet fulfillment of
Their secret longing
Like a bolt out of the blue
Fate steps in and sees you through
When you wish upon a star
Your dreams come true

Al Venir Hacia Acá
Al Venir Hacia Acá
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Al venir hacia acá
iba mirando el color de la acera
Era gris, como siempre
algo sucia y gastada
Tambien conté las grietas
y había cuarenta y tres nidos de hormigas
Al venir hacia acá
iba escuchando el sonido del aire
Era confuso y mezclado
en camiones y puertas
La gente se besaba
y había ruidos sin nombre ni apariencia
Al venir hacia acá
iba lentamente
como una ceremonia
secreta del camino
Al venir hacia acá
iba sonriendo
tranquilo y poderoso
como cualquiera que anda
Al venir hacia acá
iba tocando la piel de algún árbol
Eran húmedas, suaves
(eran pieles de árbol)
Tambien corté unas hojas
para soltarlas al aire de la noche

When You Were Sweet Sixteen
When You Were Sweet Sixteen
Composer(s): James Thornton
Performer(s): The Mills Brothers;
and various other artists
You were sweet sixteen, you were sweet sixteen
I love you as I never loved before!
Since first I met you on the village green
Come to me, or my dream of love is o'er!
I love you as I loved you
When you were sweet
When you were sweet sixteen
When first I saw the lovelight in your eye
And dreamt the world held naught but joy for me
And even though we drifted far apart
I never dreamt of what I dream of thee
I love you as I never loved before!
Since first I met you on the village green
Come to me, or my dream of love is o'er!
I love you as I loved you
When you were sweet
When you were sweet sixteen

Al Ponerse El Sol
Al Ponerse El Sol
Composer(s): Manuel Alejandro
Performer(s): Raphael
Nada se termina, todo vuelve a comenzar
Mueren ilusiones y otras nuevas naceran
La luna de ayer noche esta noche brillara
Las olas que se alejan a las playas volveran
Al ponerse el sol se llena el cielo de estrellas
Al ponerse el sol la noche empieza a nacer
Se puede hundir una vida y comenzarla otra vez
Al ponerse el sol comienza el amor
Por fin he comprendido que mi vida no acabo
Mi vida empieza ahora porque tengo un nuevo amor

When You Were Queen Of The May
When You Were Queen Of The May
Composer(s): Chas. E. Baer; Marion Raybould
Let me kiss those tears away
Smooth the locks now silver gray
Locks once gold
Let me whisper sweet and low
Love tales whisper'd long ago
Never old
You remember how the mocking birds were singing
So sweetly singing
Their love notes ringing
All the joys of love's young dream their songs were bringing
When my love I told. . . . .
Time's been kind to us I know
But someday we'll have to go
With the tide
Smilingly we've borne our share
Of life's sorrow, joy and care
Side by side
In my dreams I hear the mocking birds still singing
So sweetly singing
Their love notes ringing
And my heart is to the old days fondly clinging
When you were my bride. . . . .
Remember the village green, dear
Remember the ging-ham gown
You were that day, dear
Queen of the May, dear
Apple blossoms drifting down, drifting down, drifting down
You were the fairest there, dear
You won my heart that day
And to me you're as fair as you were, Maggie
When you were the Queen of the May

Al Pie De La Montaña
Al Pie De La Montaña
Composer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez
Performer(s): Lola Beltrán
Una casita al pie de la montaña
un arroyo que corra por el campo
un sol que alumbre siempre mi mañana
y una luna que brille en la noche
mientras canto
Una cariño que entienda mi cariño
una guitarra fiel que me acompañe
una copa de vino y un amigo
que platique de amor y respete el dolor
sin que me engañe
Eso quiero tener para darle mi adiós
a la gran ciudad, yo me quise quedar
pero siempre encontre alguién que me hizo mal
Por eso busco el pie de la montaña
y el arroyo que corra por el campo
por eso quiero el sol de la mañana
que me ayude a vivir sin que sienta morir
dentro del alma
Una casita al pie de la montaña

When You Waltz With The Girl You Love
When You Waltz With The Girl You Love
Composer(s): Garfield Kilgour; Harry Von Tilzer
Music softly plays
dreamy loveland days
Waltzing a long with one dear sweet girl
heart awhirl as you twirl
gliding all around to that dreamy sound
two eyes of blue steal your heart too
then you say "Dear I'll be true"
Dreaming as you glide
drifting by her side
waltzing forever and then a day
heart so gay as you sway
you look in her eyes
you're in Paradise
that dreamy sound guides you around
true happiness you have found
When you waltz with the girl that you love and adore
all the world seems right in tune for a June time honeymoon
when she says she'll be true as the stars up above
then you sing of the Spring and the ring it will bring
when you waltz with the girl you love

Al Oeste De La Espera
Al Oeste De La Espera
Performer(s): Fernando Ubiergo
Al oeste de la espera
va la ardilla tras la nuez
y el anzuelo disfrazado de gusano
arrastra un pez
A la espera...
Una Biblia humedecida
en la mesa de un bar
Una Biblia no leída
traiga una copa más
A la espera...
La cigüeña que se aleja
de la universidad
Y el examen de probetas
que no pudo soportar
A la espera...
Las pisadas de cemento
de un niño sin amor
que en ayunos descubrió
la historia de Colón
A la espera... a la espera...
Al oeste de la espera
hay guardado un lugar
donde yo, sin voz, estoy
soñando una canción
Al oeste de la espera
Y más al norte de mi voz
Al oeste de una estrella
el mundo vuelve
a ser un corazón

When You Walk In The Room
When You Walk In The Room
((Italian Versions: C'è Una Strana Espressione Nei Tuoi Occhi (The Rokes) - 1965; Ciò Che Fai (I New Dada) - 1965))
Composer(s): Jackie DeShannon
First release by: Jackie deShannon - 1963
Covered by multiple other artists
I can feel a new expression on my face
I can feel a glowing sensation taking place
I can hear the guitars playing lovely tunes
Every time that you walk in the room
I close my eyes for a second and pretend it's me you want
Meanwhile I try to act so nonchalant
I see a summer's night with a magic moon
Every time that you walk in the room
Maybe it's a dream come true
Walkin' right along side of you
Wish I could tell you how much I care
But I only have the nerve to stare
I can feel a something pounding in my brain
Just any time that someone speaks your name
Trumpets sound and I hear thunder boom
Every time that you walk in the room
Every time that you walk in the room

Al Norte Del Sur
Al Norte Del Sur
Performer(s): Fernando Ubiergo
Se juraron amor
para toda la vida
sobre el suelo mojado
estación Puerto Montt
la nariz en el vidrio…
empañó su sonrisa
despedida con sonido
de motor…
Sebastián va tercero
medicina en Valdivia
y en el bus va primero
justo atrás del chofer
besos por la ventana
y esa niebla maldita
desvanece como un sueño
a Maribel…
Oh… la carretera
Oh… la Luna nueva…
Y en la inmensidad …
en la oscuridad…
hay luces que vuelan
hay sombras que quedan
siluetas que vagan
al Norte del Sur…
en la noche azul
es largo el camino
extraño el destino
al Norte del Sur…
Maribel desayuna
con la radio encendida
los tejados murmuran
un secreto vapor
en el cable a las diez
ella lee noticias
no hay gaviotas
en el cielo de Angelmó…
Pocas horas al norte
una silla vacía
clase de anatomía
alguien que no llegó
sólo el ojo bohemio
de una lechuza
vio a un cometa
que en el puente
se quedó…
Oh…la carretera…
Oh…la Luna nueva…

When You Tell Me That You Love Me
When You Tell Me That You Love Me
Composer(s): J. Bettis; A. Hammond
Performer(s): Diana Ross
I wanna call the stars
Down from the sky
I wanna live a day
That never dies
I wanna change the world
Only for you
All the impossible
I wanna do
I wanna hold you close
Under the rain
I wanna kiss your smile
And feel the pain
I know what's beautiful
Looking at you
In a world of lies
You are the truth
And baby
Everytime you touch me
I become a hero
I'll make you safe
No matter where you are
And bring you
Everything you ask for
Nothing is above me
I'm shining like a candle in the dark
When you tell me that you love me
I wanna make you see
Just what I was
Show you the loneliness
And what it does
You walked into my life
To stop my tears
Everything's easy now
I have you here
And baby
Everytime you touch me
I become a hero
I'll make you safe
No matter where you are
And bring you
Everything you ask for
Nothing is above me
I'm shining like a candle in the dark
When you tell me that you love me
In a world without you
I would always hunger
All I need is your love to make me stronger
And baby
Everytime you touch me
I become a hero
I'll make you safe
No matter where you are
And bring you
Everything you ask for
Nothing is above me
I'm shining like a candle in the dark
When you tell me that you love me
You love me
When you tell me that you love me

Al Niño Niño
Al Niño Niño
Composer(s): Fernando Ubiergo
Performer(s): Fernando Ubiergo
Cuando sea grande, mi niño niño
Cuando sea grande, mi niño grande
Cuando sea grande mi niño y ande la tierra
respire el aire... no la tormenta
Cuando sea grande cuide su estrella
No es tanta la distancia entre usted y ella
Cuando sea grande, sueñe calladito
y así podrá encontrar el tiempo perdido
Y baje lunas hasta la tierra
porque el siglo que comienza
camina al sur
Y alégrese
planeta confundido
que el futuro es de los niños
... aún
Cuando sea grande, mi niño, viva
con la sabiduría de los delfines
Cuando sea grande... más grande
ame a los niños
No sea esquivo con los humildes
Cuando sea grande, mi niño, viva
la simple geometría de una caricia
Cuando sea grande, mi niño
juéguese entero
por lo que sienta que es verdadero
Y baje soles hasta la tierra
porque el siglo que comienza
camina al sur
Y alégrese
planeta confundido
que el futuro es de los niños
... aún

When You Say Nothing At All
When You Say Nothing At All
Composer(s): Paul Overstreet; Don Schlitz
Performer(s): Keith Whitley
It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word, you can light up the dark
Try as I may I could never explain
What I hear when you don't say a thing
Chorus:
The smile on your face let's me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all
All day long I can hear people talking out loud
But when you hold me near, you drown out the crowd
Try as they may could never define
What's being said between your heart and mine
(Chorus twice)

Time To Go
Time To Go
Composer(s): Y. Alain - S. Frank - R. Getzov
Performer(s): Sarah Vaughan
Time to go, let’s have one cigarette
Then I’d better get started
Guess I’ve said all I have to say
Time to go, not a single regret
Should have known we’d be parted
And that I’d fall in love this way
I thought love was a thing to resist
Till we kissed like I’ve never been kissed
Though I knew you were playing a game
I fell madly in love just the same
Time to go, I am certain, and yet
I am so broken hearted
Maybe we’ll meet again some day
And if you feel a spark, Babe
Then we can try it all over again
But till then it’s time to go
