Te Doy Una Canción


Te Doy Una Canción
Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
and multiple other artists



Cómo gasto papeles recordándote
Cómo me haces hablar en el silencio
Y cómo no te me quitas de las ganas
Aunque nadie me vea nunca contigo

Y cómo pasa el tiempo
Que de pronto son años
Sin pasar tú por mí
Detenida

Te doy una canción
Si abro una puerta
Y de las sombras sales tú

Te doy una canción
De madrugada
Cuando más quiero tu luz

Te doy una canción
Cuando apareces
el misterio del amor

Y si no lo apareces
No me importa
Yo te doy una canción

Si miro un poco afuera
Me detengo
La ciudad se derrumba
Y yo cantando

La gente que me odia
Y que me quiere
No me va a perdonar
Que me distraiga

Creen que lo digo todo
Que me juego la vida
Porque no te conocen
Ni te sienten

Te doy una canción
Y hago un discurso
Sobre mi derecho a hablar

Te doy una canción
Con mis dos manos
Con las mismas de matar

Te doy una canción
Y digo: Patria
Y sigo hablando para ti

Te doy una canción
Como un disparo, como un libro
Una palabra, una guerrilla
Como doy el amor

My Best Girl


My Best Girl (aka My Best Beau)
Composer(s): Jerry Herman
Performer(s): Eddie Fisher
and various other artists



Young Patrick:
You're my best girl and nothing you do is wrong
I'm proud you belong to me
And if a day is rough for me
Having you there's enough for me
And if someday another girl comes along
It won't take her long to see
That I'll still be found, just hanging around
My best girl

Mame:
You're my best beau, you're handsome and brave and strong
There's nothing we two can't face
If you're with me, whatever comes
We'll see that trouble never comes
And if someday another beau comes along
Determined to take your place
I hope he's resigned to falling behind
My best beau

Mame And young Patrick:
And if someday when everything turns out wrong
You're through with the human race
Come running to me

Mame:
For I'll always be
Your best girl...

Young Patrick:
My best girl!

Reprise:
Older Patrick:
You're my best girl and nothing you do is wrong
I'm proud you belong to me
And if a day is rough for me
Having you there's enough for me
And if someday when everything turns out wrong
You're through with the human race
Come running to me
For you'll always be
My best girl!

Gone With The Wind


Gone With The Wind
Composer(s): Herb Magidson; Allie Wrubel
Performer(s): Mel Tormé;
and various other artists



Gone with the wind
Just like a leaf that has blown astay
Gone with the wind
My lover has flown away
Yesterday's kisses are still on my lips
I found a lifetime of heaven at my fingertips

But now all is gone
Gone is the rapture that thrilled my heart
Gone with the wind
The gladness that stilled my heart
Just like a flame, love burned brightly
Then became an empty smoke dream that has gone
Gone with the wind

Te Dire Adieu


Te Dire Adieu
Composer(s): Charles Aznavour
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour



Et puisque d'autres mains sur ton corps impudique
Sont venues prendre place où mes doigts ne sont plu
Et puisque un autre coeur donne au tien la réplique
Et que tes joies se fondent aux joies d'un inconnu
Je veux te dire adieu

Puisque tes reins se cambrent aux nouvelles étreintes
Et que ta peau frémit sous un souffle nouveau
Puisque un autre que moi peut arracher tes plaintes
Faisant jaillir de toi des râles et des mots
Je veux te dire adieux

Et puisque sur sa couche tu nies mon existence
En oubliant mon nom pour mieux crier le sien
Que tu mords dans sa vie pour tisser ta jouissance
En lui disant ces mots que je croyais les miens

Blessé dans mon coeur même
Et parce que je t'aime
Je veux te dire adieu

My Best Friend's Girl


My Best Friend's Girl
Composer(s): Ric Ocasek
Originally performed by: The Cars
Covered by various other artists



You're always dancing down the street
With your suede blue eyes
And every new boy that you meet
He doesn't know the real surprise

Here she comes again
When she's dancing 'neath the starry sky
She'll make you flip (Here she comes again)
When she's dancing 'neath the starry sky
You kinda like the way she dips

She's my best friend's girl
She's my best friend's girl
And she used to be mine
She's so fine

You've got your nuclear boots
And your drip dry gloves
And when you bite your lip
It's some reaction to love, the love, a love

Here she comes again
When she's dancing 'neath the starry sky
She'll make you flip (Here she comes again)
When she's dancing 'neath the starry sky (Here she comes again)
You kinda like the way she dips

She's my best friend's girl
She's my best friend's girl
And she used to be mine
She's so fine

You're always dancing down the street
With your suede blue eyes
And every new boy that you meet
He doesn't know the real surprise

Here she comes again
When she's dancing 'neath the starry sky
She'll make you flip (Here she comes again)
When she's dancing 'neath the starry sky (Here she comes again)
You kinda like the way she dips

She's my best friend's girl
She's my best friend's girl
And she used to be mine
She's so fine

My best friend's girl friend
My best friend's girl friend (she used to be mine)
My best friend's girl friend (she's so fine)
My best friend's girl friend
My best friend's girl friend
My best friend's girl friend

Gone With The Draft


Gone With The Draft
Composer(s): Nat King Cole; E. Dramin; Wesley Prince
Performer(s): Nat King Cole



Gone, gone, gone with the draft
Gone, gone, gone with the draft...

When skinny me went out with my honey, the boys all started to laugh
But now it's not so funny -- they're all gone with the draft

As a sheik, I can't be beat -- the boys all hand me a laugh
But since I have got flat feet, I'm not gone in the draft

I used to envy the fellows who had such fine physiques
But all they can say is "Hello" on seven-fifty a week

When the boys get back and see how I'm doin'
they'll be sorry they laughed

'Cause one can't keep on wooing and still be gone with the draft

When Franklyn D did sign the draft, the cats all had a chill
The boys turned pale and ceased to laugh, 'cause this is a serious bill

They now realize that skinny me was the luckiest one of all
Who can stay at home with Minnie, while they face the canon balls

So boys, take it on the chin, and always wear a smile
You'll find it hard to win carryin' fifty pounds for miles

When your year of drill is up, you get your calves discharged
You can come back home and freshen up, and run around at large

Gone, gone, gone, gone with the
Draft, draft, draft, draft

Te Diré


Te Diré
Composer(s): Danilo Vaona - Gian Pietro Felisatti - Luis Gómez Escolar - Miguel Bosé
Performer(s): Miguel Bosé



Te dire
Aqui tienes los cuentos que escribi
Robando historias blancas para ti
entre cafe y cafe, todo esto te dire

Te dire
Que aqui no pasa nada si no estas
Las horas tienen tanto tiempo que
Hoy fue antes que ayer, ma&ntildeana ya vere

Te dire, Te dire
No puedo estar sin ti
Donde vas? Donde estas?
Y en silencio te seguire

Te dire, te dire
No quiero estar sin ti
Quedate, quedate
Mi camino termina aqui

Te dire
Que miento cada vez que quiero hablar
Que no hay nada en el mundo que me de
mas vertigo que tu, mas miedo que pesar

Te dire, te dire....

Composer(s): Alex Spence
Performer(s): Jefferson Airplane



Ah you're my best friend, and I love you so well
Till the end of time you won't see me
Ah you're my best friend, and I see you, it seems

Gonna Buy Me A Dog


Gonna Buy Me A Dog
Composer(s): Tommy Boyce; Bobby Hart
Performer(s): The Monkees



You know my girl just called me up
And she woke me from my sleep
You should have heard the things she said
You know she hurt my feelings deep
I'm gonna buy me a dog [A dog, a dog! Why?]
'Cause I need a friend now
[Say, you need all the friends you can get]
I'm gonna buy me a dog
My girl, my girl, don't love me no how

She used to bring me my newspaper
'Cause she knew where it was at
She used to keep me so contented
But I can teach a dog to do that
I'm gonna buy me a dog
'Cause I need a friend now
I'm gonna buy me a dog
My girl, my girl, don't love me no how

Te Digo Amor


Te Digo Amor
Performer(s): Miguel Bosé



Amor, te digo amor y suena diferente
Amor que pronunciado en eso se convierte
Y voy más lejos...
Amor que todo entiende y da a todo un sentido
Amor y punto
Amor ¿porqué creía que te había perdido?
Amor de mis pecados dale a la tormenta
Que nadie sepa
Cueste lo que cueste, duela lo que sienta
Pero así es la vida
Me cierras tantas puertas, tantas otras me abres
Y no hay salida
Sea lo que quieras, pase lo que nos pase...
No sé no sé no sé
Cuanto sabes de mí
Pero dejo que me puedas
Y permito que me lleves
Poco importa lo que hagas de mí
No sé no sé no sé
Qué es lo que quieres de mí
Me cuestionas, me estremeces
Que me arrastres o me eleves
Lo importante es lo que hagas de mí
De mí...
Suave, sereno...
Amor, querido amor así se dan las cosas
Que no te mientan
Ni todo son espinas, ni todo son rosas
No te imaginas
Amor de mis amores y con esto acabo
Así de claro
Amor, ¿dónde estuviste amor, dónde has estado?
No sé no sé no sé
Cuanto sabes de mí
Pero dejo que me puedas
Y permito que me lleves
Poco importa lo que hagas de mí
No sé no sé no sé
Qué es lo que quieres de mí
Me cuestionas, me estremeces
Que me arrastres o me eleves
Lo importante es lo que hagas de mí
Hay añores que vienen y van
No vuelven a darse en la vida
(erasé una vez la historia de una herida)
hay amor que se lleva la vida
(erasé una vez que quise que quería)

My Beautiful Sarie Marais


My Beautiful Sarie Marais
Composer(s): Michael Carr; Tommy Connor
Performer(s): Anne Shelton; Joe Loss



There’s never been another since the night I met
My beautiful Sarie Marais
No matter where I travel to I can’t forget
My beautiful Sarie Marais
Oh take me back
To the old Transvaal
That’s where I long to be
There’ll never be another with a smile so sweet
And next to my heart she will stay
I’m longing for the moment when my arms will greet
My beautiful Sarie Marais

One night I sailed away from Sable Bay
‘neath an African moon above
My heart will always yearn till I return
For I vowed I’d be true to my love

There’s never been another since the night I met
My beautiful Sarie Marais
No matter where I travel to I can’t forget
My beautiful Sarie Marais
Oh take me back
To the old Transvaal
That’s where I long to be
There’ll never be another with a smile so sweet
And next to my heart she will stay
I’m longing for the moment when my arms will greet
My beautiful Sarie Marais

When Love Is Young (The Free Design)


When Love Is Young
Composer(s): Sandy Dedrick - Stephanie Dedrick
Performer(s): The Free Design



When love is young, as fresh as dew
A song is sung, so warm and new
It winds its way, bursts into blue
An April day turned into June
Summer is born

I walk the fields, there's warmth above
The thought it yields is of my love
A lazy stream, its solitude
A summer dream, a quiet mood
Plays on my mind

The summer of a young girl's life
Is meant for love not pain or strife
a time for change, a time to stay
to rearrange for another day
Another day

Te Digo Adiós, Tristeza


Te Digo Adiós, Tristeza
Composer(s): J.M. Gallardo - C. Toro - R. Pareti
Performer(s): Miguel Gallardo



Toda mi vida viviste junto a mi
y poco a poco me acostumbré a ti
a cada instante te presentí tristeza
fuiste como mi amante, como mi compañera
En el silencio sentí tu frialdad
y entre la gente probé tu soledad
pero esta noche no soy ya tu prisionero
ella me ama y yo también la quiero
Adiós, adiós, adiós, te digo adiós tristeza
adiós, adiós, adiós, no soy tu prisionero
adiós, adiós, adiós, te digo adiós tristeza
adiós, adiós, adiós, me siento un hombre nuevo
Cuando mañana despierte con el alba
de tu presencia no quedará ya nada
ella es ahora el centro de mi vida
por eso está noche, te dejo vieja amiga
Adiós, adiós, adiós, te digo adiós tristeza
adiós, adiós, adiós, no soy tu prisionero
adiós, adiós, adiós, te digo adiós tristeza
adiós, adiós, adiós, me siento un hombre nuevo

My Back Pages


My Back Pages
Composer(s): Bob Dylan
Originally performed by: Bob Dylan
Covered by various other artists



Crimson flames tied through my years
Rollin high and mighty trapped
Countless violent flaming roads
Using ideas as my map
"We'll meet on edges soon" said I
Proud 'neath heated brow
Ah but I was so much older then
I'm younger than that now

Half wracked prejudice leaped forth
"Rip down all hate" I screamed
Lies that life is black and white
Spoke from my skull. I dreamed
Romantic flanks of musketeers
Foundationed deep, somehow
Ah but I was so much older then
I'm younger than that now

In a soldier's stance, I aimed my hand
At the mongrel dogs who teach
Fearing not I'd become my enemy
In the instant that I preach
Sisters led by confusion boats
Mutiny from stern to bow
Ah but I was so much older then
I'm younger than that now

My guard stood hard when abstract threats
Too noble to neglect
Deceived me into thinking
I had something to protect
Good and bad I define these terms
Quite clear, no doubt, somehow
Ah but I was so much older then
I'm younger than that now

Gone Too Soon


Gone Too Soon
Composer(s): Larry Grossman; Buz Kohan
Performer(s): Michael Jackson; Babyface;
John Barr; Julie Budd; Willie D; Richard Tee



Like a comet
Blazing 'cross the evening sky
Gone too soon

Like a rainbow
Fading in the twinkling of an eye
Gone too soon

Shiny and sparkly
And splendidly bright
Here one day
Gone one night

Like the loss of sunlight
On a cloudy afternoon
Gone too soon

Like a castle
Built upon a sandy beach
Gone too soon

Like a perfect flower
That is just beyond your reach
Gone too soon

Born to amuse, to inspire, to delight
Here one day
Gone one night

Like a sunset
Dying with the rising of the moon
Gone too soon
Gone too soon

Te Debo El Amor Y La Vida


Te Debo El Amor Y La Vida
Composer(s): G. Carli - A. Segura
Performer(s): Raphael



Fuiste tú quien dio a mi vida una razón
Tú, fuiste tú, quien puso fe en mi corazón
Tú, me diste tú, esa esperanza en un amanecer
Y en ese sol que ya pensé no ver
Y si me siento revivir y si el amor vuelvo a sentir
Vida y amor yo te los debo a ti
Me has dado tú toda mi fuerza y mi valor
Tú, hiciste tú, que recobrara la ilusión
Tú, y yo no sé lo que quisieras tú tener de mí
Más sea lo que sea, pide que esté aquí
Pide mi vida o pide amor, pide mis ojos, pídelos
Vida y amor yo te los debo a ti

My Baby's Gone


My Baby's Gone
Composer(s): Jimmy Bowen; Don Lanier
Performer(s): Jimmy Bowen



(Listen to my story...)
Well, my baby told me Saturday
That she was leaving town
Well, now my baby's gone away
She never comes around
Oh well, she left me
Oh well, she's left me, she's gone
She bid me goodbye
Oh well, she's moving-moving along
Well, she left town on Sunday
With a man named Clay
Well listen, oh my baby
All he wanna do is play
Oh well, she'll leave him
Oh well, she'll leave him one day
She'll get all his money
And then leave him one day

Well, the last time I saw her
She had a drink in her hand
A mink around her shoulders
And her arm around a man
A-wearing pearls and diamond necklace
Hair like golden-golden sand
But her ruby-ruby lips
They were kissin' another man
Well, they tell me that my baby
Lives in another town
They tell me that she's married
And that she's settled down
Well, I'm happy for my baby
Well, I'm happy, oh yeah
Well, I'll just find me another baby
But I'll never settle down
Well, I'll just find me another baby
But I'll never settle down
Well, I'll just find me another baby
But I'll never settle down
