Dream Weaver
Dream Weaver
Composer(s): Gary Wright
First release by: Gary Wright - 1975
I've just closed my eyes again
Climbed aboard the dream weaver train
Driver take away my worries of today
And leave tomorrow behind
Dream weaver, I believe you can get me through the night
Dream weaver, I believe we can reach the morning light
Fly me high through the starry skies
Maybe to an astral plane
Cross the highways of fantasy
Help me to forget today's pain
Dream weaver, I believe you can get me through the night
Dream weaver, I believe we can reach the morning light
Though the dawn may be coming soon
There still may be some time
Fly me away to the bright side of the moon
And meet me on the other side
Dream weaver, I believe you can get me through the night
Dream weaver, I believe we can reach the morning light
Dream weaver, dream weaver

La Fan
La Fan
Composer(s): Claude Lemesle - Joe Dassin
Performer(s): Joe Dassin
Pendant que le chanteur chantait ses pacotilles enviolonnés
La fille en coulisse écoutait, émerveillée, abandonnée
Mais comment faisait-il sans la connaître pour savoir sa vie par cœur?
Est-ce qu'il s'était penché à sa fenêtre une nuit en spectacteur?
Pendant que le chanteur dansait ses quatre pas de dérision
La fille en coulisse pensait qu'elle était las de ses chansons
Oh, si tu savais combien de vrais chagrins
Se raccrochent au ciel artificiel de tes refrains
Apres l'après-dernier appel il est allé se rhabiller
Dire qu'il était là tout près d'elle derrière la porte verrouillée
Savait-il seulement qu'aux heures grises c'est lui qui tenait sa main
Qui l'empechait de faire des bêtises en disant: "C'est beau demain"
Pendant que le chanteur rentrait, accompagné d'une imprévue
La fille en coulisse rêvait que c'était lui qu'elle avait vu
Oh, si tu savais combien de vrais chagrins
Se raccrochent au ciel artificiel de tes refrains

Meet Me On The Corner (Max Bygraves)
Meet Me On The Corner
Composer(s): P. Roberts - P. Hart
Performer(s): Max Bygraves
Meet me on the corner when the day is through
There is such a lot I’ve got to say to you
Want to tell you all the little things I’ve planned
And I can do it better if you hold my hand
So meet me on the corner when the lights are low
We can talk with no one else in sight
Though it’s just an ordinary street
We’ll be in heaven if you meet me on the corner tonight
Under the lamp post
Meet me on the corner tonight

La Familia, La Propiedad Privada Y El Amor
La Familia, La Propiedad Privada Y El Amor
Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
El derrumbe de un sueño
algo hallado pasando
resultabas ser tú
Una esponja sin dueño
un silbido buscando
resultaba ser yo
Cuando se hallan dos balas
sobre un campo de guerra
algo debe ocurrir
que prediga el amor
de cabeza hacia el suelo
una nube vendrá
o estampidas de tiempo
los ojos tendrán
Fue preciso algo siempre
y no fue porque tú
tenías lazos blancos en la piel
tú, tenías precio puesto desde ayer
tú, valías cuatro cuños de la ley
tú sentada sobre el miedo
de correr
Una buena muchacha de casa decente no puede salir
que diría la gente el domingo en la misa
si saben de ti
que dirían los amigo
los viejos vecinos
que vienen aquí
Qué dirían las ventanas
tu madre y su hermana
y todos los siglos de colonialismo español
que no en balde te han hecho cobarde
qué diría Dios
sin amas sin la Iglesia
y sin la ley
Dios, a quien ya te entregaste en comunión
Dios, que hace eternas las almas de los niños
que destrozarán las bombas y el napalm
El derrumbe de un sueño
algo hallado pasando
resultaba ser yo
Una esponja sin dueño un silbido buscando
resultabas ser tú
Busca amor con anillos
y papeles firmados
y cuando dejes de amar
ten presentes los hijos
no dejes tu esposo
ni una buena casa
y si no se resisten
serruchen los bienes
que tienes derecho también
porque tú
tenías lazos blancos en la piel
tú, tenías precio puesto desde ayer
tú, valías cuatro cuños de la ley
tú sentada sobre el miedo
de correr

Dream Police
Dream Police
Composer(s): Rick Nielsen
First release by: Cheap Trick - 1979
Covered by multiple other artists
The dream police, they live inside of my head
The dream police, they come to me in my bed
The dream police, they're coming to arrest me, oh no
You know that talk is cheap, and those rumors ain't nice
And when I fall asleep I don't think I'll survive the night, the night
'cause they're waiting for me
They're looking for me
Ev'ry single night they're driving me insane
Those men inside my brain
The dream police, they live inside of my head
(live inside of my head)
The dream police, they come to me in my bed
(come to me in my bed)
The dream police, they're coming to arrest me, oh no
Well, I can't tell lies, 'cause they're listening to me
And when I fall asleep, bet they're spying on me tonight, tonight
'cause they're waiting for me
They're looking for me
Ev'ry single night they're driving me insane
Those men inside my brain
I try to sleep, they're wide awake, they won't leave me alone
They don't get paid to take vacations, or let me alone
They spy on me, I try to hide, they won't let me alone
They persecute me, they're the judge and jury all in one
'cause they're waiting for me
They're looking for me
Ev'ry single night they're driving me insane
Those men inside my brain
The dream police, they live inside of my head
The dream police, they come to me in my bed
The dream police, they're coming to arrest me

La Fabrique
La Fabrique
((Adapted from: Millworker (by James Taylor) - 1979))
Composer(s): James Taylor - Francis Cabrel - Suzy Gelspen
Performer(s): Francis Cabrel - 1984
Mon grand-père était un marin
Il a dû mourir sur une île
Mon père avait une ferme
Et moi je suis sa seule fille
Je me suis enfuie avec ce voyou
D'un village des alentours
Aujourd'hui il s'étouffe dans son alcool
Et me laisse seule
Avec nos trois gosses à nourrir
À la fabrique c'est pas facile
C'est pas non plus très dur
Mais ce sont ces heures qui défilent
Et puis cette horloge sur le mur
Le premier rêve qui passe
L'aide à tenir jusqu'à midi
Où j'ai quelques minutes d'espace
Pour prendre un sandwich
Boire un café, et m'asseoir
Autrement c'est moi et la machine
Jusqu'à ce que la sirène le décide
Jusqu'au bout de l'après-midi
Jusqu'au bout de ma vie
Malgré moi mon cœur s'en retourne
Vers cette maison dans les terres
Où j'ai passé tant d'années d'amour
À danser sur les bras de mon père
Ces histoires de marins perdus
Ces orages sur le lac Erié
Ces navires à jamais disparus
Avec leurs voiles grandes
Comme des morceaux de ciel
Oui mais c'est ma vie qui a été gâchée
Et c'est moi qui ai eu tort
De laisser cette fabrique
Pour bien utiliser mon corps
Moi je vais rentrer chez moi ce soir
Je vais regarder mes mains
Je vais me dire qu'au moins une fois
J'aurais aimé avoir la chance
D'aller plus loin
Mais je vais travailler ici
Et oublier tout ce que je souhaite
Peut-être ne jamais rencontrer
L'homme dont le nom
Est sur l'étiquette
Ce sera moi ou la machine
Jusqu'à ce que la sirène le décide
Jusqu'au bout de l'après-midi
Jusqu'au bout de ma vie

Dream On (The Oak Ridge Boys)
Dream On
Composer(s): Dennis Lambert - Brian Potter
Performer(s): The Oak Ridge Boys; The Righteous Brothers
Lay your head down on my shoulder
I won't let the night get colder
I'll protect you, I'll be keeping
Trouble far from where you're sleeping
Until you wake in the morning
You've got the world to yourself
Dream on
Dream about the world we're gonna live in one fine day
Dream on
Spend the night in heaven
I'll be here to light your way
Someday tomorrow we'll smile
But little girl in the meanwhile
Dream on
You're a princess, chains around you
I'm the hero who just found you
'Til a brand new day must wake you
Let imagination take you
Go where the music is playing
I'll be along in a while
Dream on
Dream about the world we're gonna live in one fine day
Dream on
Spend the night in heaven
I'll be here to light your way
Someday tomorrow we'll smile
But little girl in the meanwhile
Dream on
Dream on
Dream about the world we're gonna live in one fine day
Dream on
Spend the night in heaven
I'll be here to light your way

La Eterna Canción
La Eterna Canción
Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute
S61o una lágrima lame el cristal
el sexo frío de la soledad
todas las hachas de un trozo de pan
lanza David una estrella a Goliat
dame tu mano y echemos a andar
Dios se retrata contra Satanás
Siempre lo mismo
pero con distinta voz
siglo tras siglo
es la eterna canción...
Nunca se olvida la primera vez
«quieres helado de fresa o café»
bebe Caín de la sangre de Abel
el mal a veces se lo hace muy bien
el tiempo escapa para no volver
tuvo la suerte de huir de sus pies
Siempre lo mismo...
Me falta el aire si me faltas tú
de tus pupilas tomaba la luz
una muñeca desnuda de azul
pájaro dulce de la juventud
una canción puede ser un obús
o la caricia de un viento del sur
Siempre lo mismo...

Dream On
Composer(s): Steven Tyler
First release by: Aerosmith - 1973
Covered by multiple other artists
Every time when I look in the mirror
All these lines on my face getting clearer
The past is gone
it went by, like dusk to dawn
Isn't that the way
Everybody's got the dues in life to pay
I know nobody knows
where it comes and where it goes
I know it's everybody sin
You got to lose to know how to win
Half my life
is books written pages
live and love from fools and
from sages
You know it's true,OH
All these things come back to you
Sing with me, sing for the years
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tears
Sing with me, just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good lord will take you away
Yeah, sing with me, sing for the year
sing for the laughter, sing for the tear
sing with me, just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away
Dream On
Dream On
Dream On
Dream until your dreams come true

Sing with me, sing for the year
sing for the laughter, sing for the tear
sing with me,just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away
Sing with me, sing for the year
sing for the laughter, sing for the tear
Sing with me, just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away

La Estrella De Jalisco
La Estrella De Jalisco
Composer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez
Performer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez
and multiple other artists
Aunque quisiera yo
no puedo comprender
no se, no me lo explico
Busque la estrella mas bonita
del cielo de Jalisco
Y te la di una vez
que te arrulle al vaiven
del Valle de Chapala
Mientras la luna azul
nos envolvia en su luz
y se metia en el agua
Por tu tremendo amor
yo ya podia esperar
la muerte entre tus brazos
Senti que poco a poco
el cielo se me caia
en pedazos
Y te mire temblar
y se quebro tu voz
un tanto apasionada
Y te entregue mi amor
como se da el amor
si preguntarte nada
Pero se fue la noche
y me quede llorando
llorando tu abandono
Y amaneci en la vida
alrededor de nada
completamente solo
Por eso, ya lo ves,
no puedo comprender
no se, no me lo explico
Busque
la estrella mas bonita
del cielo de Jalisco
Y te la di una vez
que te arrulle al vaiven
del Lago de Chapala
Mientras la luna azul
nos envolvia en su luz
y se metia en el agua

Dream Of Olwen
Dream Of Olwen
Composer(s): Charles Williams - Winifred May
Performer(s): Reggie Goff
and multiple other artists
Olwen, I hear you call to me
At moonrise across a golden sea
Softly the waves make melody
To wake all my song of memory
Olwen come to me I implore
Tell me where shall I find you
Olwen till the stars shine no more
True unto you I shall be
Deep is the blue that veils the night
The light in the west has faded
But I must pursue till dawn breaks through
The dream I am dreaming of you, beloved
Olwen in the wings of the wind
Fondly your voice is calling
Calling from a world far apart
And strangely you seem
To answer the dream in my heart

Pedro The Fisherman
Pedro The Fisherman
Composer(s): Harold Purcell - Harry Parr Davies
Performer(s): Gracie Fields
and multiple other artists
Pedro the fisherman was always whistling such a merry call
Girls who were passing by would hear him whistling by the harbour wall
But his sweetheart, Nina, who loved him true, always knew
That his song belonged to her alone
And in the evening when the lights were gleaming and they had to part
As he sailed his boat away, echoing across the bay
Came the tune that lingered in her heart
But days of dreaming quickly pass and life goes rushing on
And one day from the harbour wall she found his boat had gone
He'd sailed away to find the gold the sea could never bring
To buy a dress, a cuckoo clock, a saucepan and a ring
She kept her eyes on the blue horizon, but he didn't return
She stopped her sighing and left off crying but he didn't return
One day her father said to her "Oh dearest daughter mine
You'll never make a lot from fish, you make much more from wine
Tho' Miguel is rather fat, his vineyard's doing well
So marry him and let your dreams of Pedro go to hell"
The organ peals, the choir boys sing
The priest is ready with the book and ring
So small and white here comes the bride
And stands by the swarthy Miguel's side
Will you have this man to be your lawful wedded spouse eternally?
And suddenly the church is still; they wait to hear her say "I will"
When through the open doorway there a far off sound disturbs the air
Suddenly she found her man; from the church out she ran
There he was upon the harbour wall
Down rushed the wedding guests upon the quayside, but the bride had gone
As with love she sailed away, echoing across the bay
Came the happy ending to her song

Dream Of A Child
Dream Of A Child
Composer(s): David Forman
Performer(s): Burton Cummings
When I was a boy I dreamed of Phillip Marlowe
He took me as his partner took me as his friend
Gave me his fedora gave me shotgun fever
Took me as his partner to the end
When I was a boy I dreamed I was a jeweler
With a family business that was free and clear
Selling golden earrings to Mrs Mickey Mantle
Trying to be gentle while I stuck it in her ear
The dream of a child, the song of a man
The key and the time are at his command
The dream of a child the song of a man
The key and the time are at his command
When I was a boy I dreamed I saved my sister
From the Rosicrucians for the love of God
I threw myself among them slaughtering their numbers
Striking at their laughter crying so hard
The dream of a child the song of a man
The key and the time are at this command
The dream of a child the song of a man
The key and the time are at his command
When I was a boy I dreamed that Elvis Presley
Was standing on the corner kissing Brenda Lee
Mama always told me love was made in Heaven
Tell me how my best friend could steal my love from me
I love Brenda Lee - Brenda Lee loves me

Performer(s): Jimmie Davis

Be nobody's darlin' but mine, love
Be honest and faithful, be kind
And promise me that you will never

You're sweet as the flowers in the Springtime

You're sure to be somebody's darlin'
Be nobody's darlin' but mine! (but mine)
Come sit by my side, little darlin', (oh my darlin')
Come lay your cool hands on my brow
I'm taking a long weary journey, (oh my darlin')
So give your last kiss to me now! (oh my darlin')
So this is goodbye little darlin'
My heart breaks to leave you behind
And promise me that you will never
Be nobody's darlin' but mine (mine, all mine)

Dream Lover (Jeanette MacDonald & Nelson Eddy)
Dream Lover
Composer(s): Clifford Grey - Victor Schertzinger
Performer(s): Jeanette MacDonald & Nelson Eddy
and multiple other artists
There's a land of charm that I know
Land of sweet romance where I love to go
And it falls at my door
In the gloom where the shadows dream
Someone I meet there waits for me
Someone tender as a lover should be
And I whisper each night
As I close my eyes in sleep
Dream lover, fold your arms around me
Dream lover, your romance has found me
I'm here in your spell, knowing so well
Dreams never tell
We two can leave the world behind us
Nobody indiscreet can find us
All dreams are of mine, secrets divine
I will share them with you
We two can leave the world behind us
Nobody indiscreet can find us
All dreams are of mine, secrets divine
I will share them with you

A New Love Is Old
A New Love Is Old
Composer(s): Jerome Kern - Otto A. Harbach
Performer(s): Jerome Kern; Georges Metaxa
She brings you a new smile
For new lovers do smile
She tends you a new smile
A new love is told
She brings you some new thrills
Some tender and true thrills
but after a few thrills
Your new love is old!
When she makes signs at you and you realise that you adore her
And when you understand sweet arms full of wonder stand before you
Take what she offers and be gay
Love hates a man who runs away!
Hearts ache and lips can smile
At thoughts that recall another day
She brings you a new smile
For new lovers do smile
She tends you a new smile
A new love is told
She brings you some new thrills
Some tender and true thrills
but after a few thrills
Your new love is old!
She brings you some new thrills
Some tender and true thrills
but after a few thrills
Your new love is old!

Composer(s): Bobby Darin
First release by: Bobby Darin - 1959
Covered by multiple other artists
Every night I hope and pray
A dream lover will come my way
A girl to hold in my arms
And know the magic of her charms
'Cause I want a girl to call my own
I want a dream lover
So I don't have to dream alone
Dream lover, where are you
With a love, oh, so true?
And I hand that can hold
To feel you near as I grow old?
'Cause I want a girl to call my own
I want a dream lover
So I don't have to dream alone
Someday, I don't know how
I hope she'll hear my plea
Some way, I don't know how
She'll bring her love to me
Dream lover, until then
I'll go to sleep and dream again
That's the only thing to do
Till all my lover's dreams come true
'Cause I want a girl to call my own
I want a dream lover so
I don't have to dream alone
Please don't make me dream alone
I beg you don't make me dream alone
No, I don't wanna dream

La Espera
Composer(s): Alejandro Lerner
Performer(s): Alejandro Lerner
Hace tanto tiempo
Que estoy esperando
Que se cumplan las promesas
De este amor
Que ya no respiro
Si no es a tu lado
Que ya no me reconozco
Entre tanta soledad
Dame amor
Dame un sol
Dame un sueño sin dolor
Para amarte
Para alcanzarte
Dame amor
Dame un sol
Dame un sueño sin dolor
Para amarte
Para encontrarte
De una vez
Hace tanto tiempo
Que llegó el invierno
Que los duendes no me llaman
No me vienen a buscar
Hace tantas noches
Vivo en el hastío
En un mundo de recuerdos
Que no me deja escapar
Si preguntas por mí
Si te decides por mí
Ya no quiero estar esperando
