Trade Winds


Trade Winds
Composer(s): Charles Tobias - Cliff Friend
Performer(s): Bing Crosby
and multiple other artists



Down where the trade winds play
Down where you lose a day
We found a new world where paradise starts

We traded hearts way down where the trade winds play
Music was everywhere, flowers were in her hair
Under an awning of silvery boughs

We traded vows the night that I sailed away
Oh trade winds, what are vows that lovers make
Oh trade winds, are they only made to break

When it is May again, I'll sail away again
Though I'm returning, it won't be the same
She traded her name way down where the trade winds play

I Lupi Attorno A Noi


I Lupi Attorno A Noi ((French Version: Le Temps Des Loups (by Charles Aznavour)) Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - Georges Garvarentz - Giancotto Performer(s): Charles Aznavour



Se guarderai io sono qui, non vivo più Cammino, ma non so perché Senza di te, che senso ha Per te strangolerò la rabbia Per te io fermerò la pioggia E i lupi poi cancellero Ascolta un po' Un cuore che ha pianto te In mezzo a mille cose che Cambiando poi, mi lascian qui Per te io scorso la violenza Per te reinventerò l'infanzia Che i lupi sa ammestrar Vorrei in fondo agli occhi tuoi Scordar le pene Spezzar con i capelli tuoi Le mie catene Vedere che per l'amore che tu hai Da oggi in poi scompare Chi non sa amar Stringiti a me Valgo soltanto quel che sai Le unghie e i denti anch'io li ho Ma i sogni miei non son così Per te soltanto tenerezza Per te la nostra debolezza I lupi poi sconfiggerà Così cammino Senza di te verso l'abisso Lo sai, sarei Senza di te meno che niente Ritorna qui e con te, con l'amor Cancellerò i lupi attorno a noi Vieni con me, candidamente Crederò che nei segreti del tuo cuor Un mondo arriva e l'altro va Per te la fede più profonda Lo sai, mi porta nel tuo mondo Dove vedrai non i saranno più I lupi ormai

Oh, in the Flamingo club, on the southeast side
Sits Rodriguez and his friendly bride
And they spent two minutes down by the riverside

Please, please, one more night

No!

Could I stay, could I please stay ?
I don't want a sharp bed
I don't want a marb (?) bed …

I lunden den gröna går flickor sköna
att plocka blommor ut i det gröna
De skola plocka dem, de skola binda dem
de skola kalla dem förgätmigej

Hej du sing duda, hej du sing duda
de skola kalla dem förgätmigej
Hej du sing duda, hej du sing duda
de skola kalla dem förgätmigej

På havets bölja jag mej befinner
och ostkustblomman på kinden brinner
Och himlens stjärnor de skola lysa
och fridens änglar omfamna mej

Hej du sing duda, hej du sing duda
och fridens änglar de omfamna mej
Hej du sing duda, hej du sing duda

Och när du friar så var försiktig
och när du skriver så var uppriktig
Och när du reser så glöm ej bort mej

Hej du sing duda, hej du sing duda

Just One More Chance


Just One More Chance
Composer(s): Sam Coslow; Arthur Johnston
Performer(s): Bing Crosby;
and various other artists



We spend our lives groping for happiness
I found it once but tossed it aside
I paid for it with hours of loneliness
I've nothing to hide, I'd bury my pride for

Just one more chance
To prove it's you alone I care for
Each night I say a little prayer for
Just one more chance

Just one more night
To taste the kisses that enchant me
I'd want no others if you'd grant me
Just one more chance

I've learned the meaning of repentance
Now you're the jury at my trial
I know that I should serve my sentence
Still I'm hoping all the while you'll give me

Just one more word
I said that I was glad to start out
But now I'm back to cry my heart out
For just one more chance

Track Track


Track Track
Composer(s): Fito Páez
Performer(s): Fito Páez; Os Paralamas do Sucesso



No se pasa el tiempo
Al menos para mí ya tome pastillas
Y sigo sin dormir
Miro a los costados y nada que amarrar
Ya no existen lazos
Alguien hizo trac, trac, trac

Todos los perfumes, todo aquel lugar
Todas las miserias y toda la verdad
Cada movimiento del sol en la pared
Cada mueble viejo, cada anochecer
Eh, eh, eh

Dame tu amor, sólo tu amor
Dame tu amor, sólo tu amor

Pocas garantías hay para los dos
Nada en este mundo tiene algún valor
Todo el vecindario puede proceder
Yo soy sospechoso como vos y él

Vino todo el mundo, la radio y la TV
Vino el comisario, los ángeles también
Todos quieren algo, sangre o no se qué
Y todo el universo sigue intacto como ayer

Dame tu amor, sólo tu amor
Dame tu amor, sólo tu amor

Just One More


Just One More
Composer(s): George Jones
Performer(s): George Jones;
and various other artists



Put the Bottle on the table
Let it stay there till I'm not able
To see her face in ev'ry place that I go
I've been sitting here so long

Just remembering that you are gone
Well, one more drink of wine
Then if she’s still on my mind
One drink, Just One More, and then another

I'll keep drinking, it won't matter
I'll just remember that I once had her
I don't know why I sit and cry ev'ry day

I've been trying to forget, but I haven’t stopped as yet
Well, one more drink of wine
Then if she’s still on my mind
One drink, just one more, and then another

So, put the bottle on the table
Let it stay there till I'm not able
To see her face in ev'ry place that I go
I've been sitting here so long

Just remembering that she is gone
Well, one more drink of wine
Then if she’s still on my mind
One drink, just One More, and then another...

Traces


Traces
Composer(s): Buddy Buie - James Cobb - Emory Gordy
First release: Classics IV - 1969
Covered by multiple other artists



Faded photographs
Covered now with lines and creases
Tickets torn in half
Memories in bits and pieces
Traces of love long ago
That didn't work out right
Traces of love

Ribbons from her hair
Souvenirs of days together
The ring she used to wear
Pages from an old love letter
Traces of love long ago
That didn't work out right
Traces of love with me tonight

I close my eyes and say a prayer
That in her heart she'll find
A trace of love still there
Somewhere, oh-oh-ooohhh

Traces of hope in the night
That she'll come back and dry
Theses traces of tears from my eyes
Oh-oh-oh-ooohhh-oh-oh-oh, oh yeah

Samantha, you're all
I'll ever adore
So forgive me, do
If I say to you
What I've said so often before

I love you, Samantha
And my love will never die

I'm a one-gal guy
Together, Samantha
We could ride a star and ride it high
Remember, Samantha
I'm a one-gal guy
And if some distant day
You decided to say
"Get along, go away, goodbye!"
Remember, Samantha
I'm a one-gal guy
Remember, Samantha
I'm a one gal guy

Trabajo, Quiero Trabajo


Trabajo, Quiero Trabajo
Composer(s): Atahualpa Yupanqui
Performer(s): Atahualpa Yupanqui



Cruzando los salitrales
uno se muere de sed
Aquello es puro desierto
y allí no hay nada que hacer

Trabajo, quiero trabajo
porque esto no puede ser
Un día veré al desierto
convertido en un vergel

El río es puro paisaje
lejos sus aguas se van
pero mis campos se queman
sin acequias ni canal

Trabajo, quiero trabajo
porque esto no puede ser
Un día veré a mi campo
convertido en un vergel

Las entrañas de la tierra
va el minero a revolver
Saca tesoros ajenos
y muere de hambre después

Trabajo, quiero trabajo
porque esto no puede ser
No quiero que naides pase
las penas que yo pasé

Despacito, paisanito
despacito y tenga fe
que en la noche del miner
o ya comienza a amanecer

Trabajo, quiero trabajo
porque esto no puede ser

Just One Heart


Just One Heart
Composer(s): Paul Muggleton
Performer(s): Agnetha Faltskog



The fever's running in the city
People want to make it so much worse
On the high street I can see no pity
People with their faces in the dirt
Just one heart, that needs to open
Just one word will break the ice
One touch, to kill the darkness
One kiss to give it light
Just one heart, that needs to open
Just one word will break the ice
One touch, to kill the darkness
One kiss to give it light
Make it right
See the man there kicking in the shadows
Why's he feel he's got to kill and steal?
He can't wait to see which way the wind blows
Does it mean he'll get a better deal?
Just one heart, that needs to open
Just one word will break the ice
One touch, to kill the darkness
One kiss to give it light
Just one heart, that needs to open
Just one word will break the ice
One touch, to kill the darkness
One kiss to give it light
Make it right, make it right
Just one heart, that needs to open
Just one word will break the ice
One touch, to kill the darkness
One kiss to give it light
Just one heart, that needs to open
Just one word will break the ice
One touch, to kill the darkness
One kiss to give it light
Just one heart...one heart
Just one heart...one heart
Just one heart...one heart...

Trabajo De Amantes


Trabajo De Amantes
Composer(s): Pablo Guerrero - Gonzalo Lasheras - Suso Saiz
Performer(s): Pablo Guerrero



Quiero ofrecerte un presente
ahora que el olor del azahar
llena de quietud y de armonía
el corazón y los naranjos

Ven a mi gruta
Aquí no hay sombras
de lobos proyectadas
sobre rocas oscuras

Déjame que acompase
nuestras respiraciones
y que discurra el tiempo
como agua en los dedos

Porque amarnos será
nuestra contribución a la dicha
de un mundo atribulado

Just Once In My Life


Just Once In My Life
Composer(s): Carole King; Gerry Goffin; Phil Spector
Performer(s): The Righteous Brothers; and various other artists



There's a lotta things I want, a lotta things that I'd like to be
But girl I don't foresee a rags to riches story for me
There's just one little dream I've got to make come true
There's just one round I've got to win, I can't be a loser with you

And baby, baby
Just once in my life let me get what I want
Girl, don't let me down
Just once in my life let me hold on to
The good thing I've found, don't let me down
Baby, say that you'll be stayin'

'Cause I couldn't face the day if you weren't here by my side
And if you went away then I'd be left without any pride
I've given up on schemes 'cause every one fell through
I've given up so many things, don't ask me to give up on you

And baby, baby
Just once in my life let me get what I want
Girl, don't let me down
Just once in my life let me hold on to
The good thing I've found, don't let me down
Baby, say that you'll be stayin'

That old pot of gold ain't so easy to find
But if you'll stand by me, girl, I'll keep peace of mind
I can't give you the world but I will work hard for you, girl
Yes, I'll work hard (everyday) all my life (you will see)
If you won't leave me (baby, don't leave)
Please don't leave me (oh no don't leave)
Just do this for me, baby

Once in my life let me get what I want
Girl, don't let me down
Just once in my life let me hold on to
The good thing I've found, don't let me down
Baby, say that you'll be stayin'
Hmm-mmm-hmm mmm-hmmm

Just once in my life let me get what I want
Girl, don't let me down
Just once in my life let me hold on to
The good thing I've found, don't let me down
Just once in my life let me get what I want
Girl, don't let me down

Tra La La La La


Tra La La La La
Composer(s): Andrew B. Sterling - Harry Von Tilzer



Sweet Marie from gay Paree
Came here to go upon the stage
Sweet Marie a hit was she
And soon became the public rage
Every night it was a sight
To see the Johnnies fall in line
On bended knee you'd hear this please
Oh sweet Marie come please be mine

Sweet Marie was wise you see
She always knew her little book
Diamond rings and other things
That came her way she always took
Winning smile and taking style
Took costly presents by the score
She'd take each lad for all he had
And then she'd take him to the door

Tra la la la la she'd always say
Tra la la la la in accent day
Pretty baby if I let you play wize me
You might get too gay and free
Tra la la la la My Yankee boy
Tra la la la la you bring much joy
But if I go out and take ze motor ride
Why you might want to pull down ze blind inside
And zen you try to get a little fly
So I better
Tra la la la la
Tra la la la la come ça

Tra la la la la ze naughty child
Tra la la la la he get too wild
If I ever give to sweet pa pa one kiss
Zen he'll know what real love is
Tra la la la la
Oh you baby
Tra la la la la I know cherie
That when you say zat with love your heart is full
I know zats only what Yankee call ze "bull"
And if I let you get ze kiss I bet
Why then I know you'll
Tra la la la la
Tra la la la la come ça
