At This Moment


At This Moment
Composer(s): Billy Vera
First release by: Billy & The Beaters - 1981



What did you think
I would do At This Moment
When you're standing before me
With tears in your eyes
Trying to tell me that you
Have found you another
And you just don't love me no more

What did you think
I would say At This Moment
When I'm faced with the knowledge
That you just don't love me
Did you think I would curse you
Or say things to hurt you
'Cause you just don't love me no more

Did you think I could hate you
Or raise my hands to you
Now, come on, you know me too well
How could I hurt you
When Darlin' I love you
And you know, I'd never, never hurt you

What do you think
I would give At This Moment
If you'd stay, I'd subtract
Twenty years from my life
I'd fall down on my knees
Kiss the ground that you walk on
If I could just hold you again

Dolores (Tommy Dorsey)


Dolores Composer(s): Frank Loesser - Louis Alter Performer(s): Tommy Dorsey and multiple other artists



How I love the kisses of Dolores
Aye-aye-aye Dolores
Not Marie or Emily or Doris
Only my Dolores

From a balcony above me
She whispers "Love me", then throws a rose
Ah but she is twice as lovely
As the rose she throws

I would die to be with my Dolores
Aye-aye-aye Dolores
I was made to serenade Dolores
Chorus after chorus

Just imagine eyes like moonrise
A voice like music, lips like wine
What a break if I could make Dolores
Mine all mine

I would die to be with my Dolores
Aye-aye-aye Dolores
I was made to serenade Dolores
Chorus after chorus

Just imagine eyes like moonrise
A voice like music, lips like wine
What a break if I could make Dolores
Mine all mine

At The Zoo


At The Zoo
Performer(s): Paul Simon



Someone told me
It's all happening at the zoo
I do believe it
I do believe it's true

It's a light and tumble journey
From the East Side to the park
Just a fine and fancy ramble to the zoo
But you can take a crosstown bus
If it's raining or it's cold
And the animals will love it if you do

Somethin' tells me
It's all happening at the zoo
I do believe it
I do believe it's true

The monkeys stand for honesty
Giraffes are insincere
And the elephants are kindly but they're dumb
Orangutans are skeptical
Of changes in their cages
And the zookeeper is very fond of rum

Zebras are reactionaries
Antelopes are missionaries
Pigeons plot in secrecy
And hamsters turn on frequently
What a gas! You gotta come and see
At the zoo

Dolores (Charles Aznavour)


Dolores Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - Jacques Plante Performer(s): Charles Aznavour



Sans doute je ne serais pas qui je suis
Je ne serais pas où j'en suis
Si je n'avais jamais connu Dolorès

Sans doute je n'aurais jamais réussi
Je n'habiterais pas Passy
Si je n'avais jamais connu Dolorès

Sans doute, je n'avais rien d'un ambitieux
En aurais-je été moins heureux
Si je n'avais jamais connu Dolorès

Pour elle
J'ai su ce que valaient les gens
Pour elle
J'ai su ce que pouvait l'argent
Tout l'argent
Sans doute
Je n'aurais tant de millions
Mais j'aurais quelques illusions
Si je n'avais jamais connu Dolorès

Sans doute me serait-il même arrivé
De passer mon temps à rêver
Si je n'avais jamais connu Dolorès

Sans doute j'aurais vécu simple et normal
Je n'aurais pas fait tant de mal
Si je n'avais jamais connu Dolorès

Pour elle
Je me suis durci jusqu'au cœur
Jusqu'au cœur

Ma route
Va parfois se perdre un instant
Dans quelque coin calme et charmant
Où je parviens à oublier Dolorès

J'écoute
Le chant des oiseaux dans les bois
Et ça me rappelle autrefois
Les merveilleux printemps d'avant Dolorès

Je l'aime
Et depuis qu'elle m'a quittée
C'est d'elle, que je me venge en vérité
Sans pitié
Personne
Ne saura combien j'ai souffert
Je ne suis plus qu'un homme amer
Voilà tout ce qu'a fait de moi Dolorès
Mais si demain je retrouvais Dolorès
Je sais bien que je reprendrais Dolorès

Dolor De Ya No Verte


Dolor De Ya No Verte
Composer(s): G. Curiel
Performer(s): Javier Solís



Dolor de ya no verte
ni de besarte más
Dolor que va en el viento
para mi eterno mal

En mis obscuras noches de soledad
cierro los ojos
rezo tu nombre
y todo sigue igual

Así las horas pasan
y corren los años sin tu luz
Mis brazos antes tuyos
tornáronse en cruz

Ya todo ha concluido con tu final
y hoy tu recuerdo
quema mis ojos
cansados de llorar

Y así las horas pasan
y corren los años sin tu luz
Mis brazos antes tuyos
tornáronse en cruz

Ya todo ha concluido con tu final
y hoy tu recuerdo
quema mis ojos
cansados de llorar

Y hoy tu recuerdo
quema mis ojos
cansados de llorar

Everything's The Same (Ain't Nothing Changed)


Everything's The Same (Ain't Nothing Changed)
Composer(s): Billy Swan
Performer(s): Billy Swan



You went away and left me 'cause you thought you could hurt me
But I've got news for you; I'm still strong and your are wrong
To think you'd leave and I'd turn blue

Everything's the same
there ain't nothin' changed
The sun still shines and the rain still rains
And I'm still me
and you're still you
too
you see

Everything's the same
there ain't nothin' changed

Since you've been gone
I still do what I do
no

I haven't changed a bit; I still eat
I still sleep

I still go to work and when my work-day's done I split

Everything's the same
there ain't nothin' changed ...

Dolly Dagger


Dolly Dagger
Composer(s): Jimi Hendrix
Performer(s): Jimi Hendrix; James Byrd



Here comes Dolly Dagger
Her love's so heavy, she's gonna make you stagger
Dolly Dagger, she drinks her blood from a jagged edge
Been riding broom sticks since she was 15
Blowing out all the other witches on the scene

She got a bull whip just as long as your life
Her tongue can ever scratch the soul of the devil's wife
Well I see her in action at the players choise
Turning all the love men into doughnut boys

Hey, red hot Momma step aside
This chik's gonna turn you to a block of ice - look out!
Look at burned out superman
Trying to shoot his dust on the sun
Captain Coconut is dead on the run
The words of love, do they ever touch Dolly Brown
Better get some highway and clear out of town

(She ain't satisfied 'til she gets what she's after
She drinks her blood from a jagged edge
You better watch out, baby, here comes your master)

Everyone who is lonely
I've got a place for you
Where the music play-ay-ay-ay-ays
Till way past two

Come along now, let's go down to the scene
(well, what's it like now)
Meet me down at the scene

You'll live just like a queen
When you're down at the scene

There's no need to be fancy
No one there will stare
Dress in all the things you usually do
There's no need to care

Come along now, let's go down to the scene

Meet me down at the scene
(I'm comin', I'm comin')
You'll live just like a queen
When you're down at the scene

Everyone who is lonely
I've got a place for you
Where the music play-ay-ay-ay-ays
Till way past two

Come along now, let's go down to the scene

Meet me down at the scene
(all right, all right)
You'll live just like a queen
When you're down at the scene
When you're down at the scene
When you're down at the scene

At The Same Time


At The Same Time
Performer(s): Barbra Streisand



Think of all the hearts
beating in the world
at the same time
think of all the faces
and the stories they could tell
at the same time
think of all the eyes
looking out into this world
trying to make some sense of what we see
think of all the ways we have of seeing
think of all the ways there are of being
think of all the children
being born into this world
at the same time
feel your love surround them
through the years they'll need to grow
at the same time
just think of all the hands
that will be reaching for a dream
think of all the dreams that could come true
yes if the hands we're reaching with
could come together
joining me and you
when it comes to thinking of tomorrow
we must protect our fragile destiny
in this prescious life there's no time to borrow
the time has come to be a family
ohhh...
think of all the love
pouring from our hearts
at the same time
yes think of all the light our looks
can shine and grow this world
at the same time
at the same time
yes think what we've been givin
and yet think what we could lose
all of life is in our trembling hands
its time to overcome our fears
and join to build a world that loves and understands
it helps to think of all the hearts
beating in the world
and hope for all the hearts
healing in the world
theres a healing music in our hearts
beating in this world
at the same time
at the same time

Dolcissima Maria


Dolcissima Maria Composer(s): Francone Mussida - Mauro Pagani - Flavio Premoli Performer(s): Premiata Forneria Marconi; Renato Russo



Dolce Maria dimentica i fiori dipinti dal tempo sopra il tuo viso e gli anni andati via seduta ad aspettare una lunga, lunga via nessuno da incontrare... Non voltarti più E il giorno arriverà vestito di poesia ti parlerà di sogni che non ricordavi più e ti benedirà dolcissima Maria Dolce Maria dagli occhi puliti dagli occhi bagnati è tempo d'andare e presto sentirai profumo di mattino e il tordo canterà volandoti vicino... non voltarti più E qualcuno se vorrai vestito di poesia ti coprirà d'amore senza chiederti di più e t'accarezzerà dolcissima Maria

At The Place


At The Place
Composer(s): Dave Clark - Lenny Davidson
Performer(s): The Dave Clark Five



In the darkness of the city
There'll be someone waiting for me tonight
Far from all the city noises
She'll be waitin' at the place where we always meet

At the place where we can walk and talk together
There'll be no one else around but her and me

Very soon I'll be beside her
At the place where no one else can be found
I will say how much I love her
Then we'll kiss at the place where we always meet

At the place where we can walk and talk together
There'll be no one else around but her and me

La, la, la, la, da, da, la...

At the place where we can walk and talk together
There'll be no one else around but her and me
At the place
At the place

Dolce Paola Composer(s): Salvatore Adamo Performer(s): Salvatore Adamo



La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

Paola dolce Paola
il mio sogno
mi sòn permesso

Paola

La mano tremante
ho sfiorato il suo viso
gli ho colto un sorriso

Paola

Dolce chimera
quando una sera
mi offrì il suo sguardo

Paola

Nella sua maestà
ho visto in verità
una colomba fragile

Paola dolce Paola
Paola dolce Paola

Paola

Se hai visto gli occhi suoi
mancare tu non puoi
di farmi un mito

Paola

Conservo in fondo al cuor
come di un vago fior
la sua dolcezza

la la la la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la la la la

At The Million Dollar Tango Ball


At The Million Dollar Tango Ball
Composer(s): James White



Millionaires gave a tango ball the other night at the Wall Street Hall
Hetty Green and old John D. Vanderbilt and Carnegie
Millionaires from every town did the tango up and down
I know you'd think it funny if you could see them, honey doing things up brown

Fragrant perfume filled the air diamonds shone from everywhere
I saw Eva Tanguay there she was singing "I Don't Care"
Leaders of society losing all their dignity
you ought to see them swaying and hear the music playing on and off the key

At the million dollar tango ball, given by the millionaires at Wall Street Hall
John D. Rockefeller sold the tickets by the score
Andrew Carnegie was taking tickets at the door
Hetty Green was dancing mistress of the floor
Vanderbuilt was playing every rag encore with "Too much mustard" oh you doll
no one thought of home at all, at the million dollar tango ball

Dolce Luna


Dolce Luna Composer(s): Fabrizio De Andrè - Francesco De Gregori Performer(s): Fabrizio De Andrè



Cammina come un vecchio marinaio
non ha più un posto dove andare
la terra sotto i piedi non lo aspetta
strano modo di ballare
sua moglie ha un altro uomo e un'altra donna
è proprio un uomo da buttare
e nelle tasche gli è rimasta solo un po' di polvere di mare
e non può testimoniare
Si muove sopra i sassi
come un leone invernale
ti può parlare ore ed ore
della sua quarta guerra mondiale
conserva la sua cena dentro un foglio di giornale
la sua ragazza "esca dalle lunghe gambe" fa all'amore niente male
e non può testimoniare
Lui vide il marinaio indiano
alzarsi in piedi e barcollare
con un coltello nella schiena
tra la schiuma e la stella polare
e il timoniere di Sciangai
tornò tranquillo a pilotare
e lui lo vide con l'anello al dito e un altro anello da rubare
ma non può testimoniare
Dal buio delle notti "Balla Linda"
alla paralisi di un porto
la luce delle stelle chiare
come un rifugio capovolto
la sua balena "Dolce Luna" che lo aspetta in alto mare
gli ha detto molte volte "Dimmi amore, con chi mi vuoi dimenticare"
e non può testimoniare
e non può testimoniare
E tu mi vieni a dire voglio un figlio
su cui potermi regolare
con due occhi qualunque e il terzo occhio inconfondibile e speciale
che non ti importa niente
se non riuscirà a nuotare
l'importante è che abbia sulla guancia destra
quella mia voglia di mare
e mi dici ancora che il mio nome
glielo devo proprio dare
ma non so testimoniare
io non so testimoniare

Dolce Enrico


Dolce Enrico Composer(s): Antonello Venditti Performer(s): Antonello Venditti



Enrico se tu ci fossi ancora
ci basterebbe un sorriso
per un abbraccio di un'ora
il mondo cambia
ha scelto la bandiera
l'unica cosa che resta
È un'ingiustizia più vera
Qui tutti gridano
qui tutti noi siamo diversi
ma se li senti parlare
sono da sempre gli stessi
quante bugie
quanti segreti in fondo al mare
pensi davvero che un giorno
noi li vedremo affiorare
oh no, non dirmi no
dimmi che quel giorno ci sarà
Chiudo gli occhi e penso a te
dolce Enrico
nel mio cuore accanto a me
tu sei vivo
chiudo gli occhi e tu ci sei
dolce Enrico
tu sorridi accanto a me...
A San Giovanni stanotte
la piazza è vuota
ma quanta gente che c'è
sotto la grande bandiera
e quante bugie
quanti segreti in fondo al mare
dimmi che un giorno davvero
noi li vedremo affiorare
oh no, non dirmi no
dimmi che quel giorno ci sara
Chiudo gli occhi e penso a te
dolce Enrico
nel mio cuore accanto a me
tu sei vivo
chiudo gli occhi e tu ci sei
dolce Enrico
tu sorridi accanto a me...
