Tragedy (Thomas Wayne)


Tragedy
Composer(s): Fred Burch - Carl Perkins
Performer(s): Thomas Wayne
and multiple other artists



Wind and storm (ooh-ooh)
Gone's the sun (the sun, ooh)
From the stars my dark has come
You've gone from me, oh, oh, tragedy (ah, ah, ah, ah, ah)

Oh, come back
Have me here
Hold me, love
Be sincere
You've gone from me, oh, oh, tragedy (ee-ee, ee-ee, ee-ee, ee-ee)

(ah, ah, ah)
Like smoke from a fire
Of love oh, oh, oh, ooh
Our dreams have all gone
Above oh, oh, oh, ooh

Blown by wind
Kissed by snow
All that's left is the dark be-ee-ee-low
You've gone from me, oh, oh, tragedy
(Oh, oh, oh)
Tragedy
(Bung!)

Over Wyoming


Over Wyoming
Composer(s): Harris; Nesbitt
Performer(s): Alan Dean & Terry Devon



(Both)
When the moon shines bright over Wyoming
(Terry)
That’s when I long to be right in your arms
(Both)
When the stars are bright over Wyoming
(Alan)
That’s when I long to see your heavenly charms

(Both)
I see you standing there
(Alan)
Just like an angel
(Terry)
As I wait for you beside the cabin door
(Both)
When the moon shines bright over Wyoming
(Alan)
That’s where I long to be
(Terry)
‘Cos you’re the one for me
(Both)
Forever more

Tragedy (Bee Gees)


Tragedy
Composer(s): Barry Gibb - Robin Gibb - Maurice Gibb
First release: Bee Gees - 1979
Covered by multiple other artists



Here I lie
in a lost and lonely part of town
Held in time
In a world of tears I slowly drown
Goin' home
I just can't make it all alone
I really should be holding you
Holding you
Loving you loving you

Tragedy
When the feeling's gone and you can't go on
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no-one to love you you're goin' nowhere
Tragedy
When you lose control and you got no soul
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no-one beside you you're goin' nowhere
When the feeling's gone and you can't go on

Night and day
there's a burning down inside of me
Burning love
With a yearning that won't let me be
Down I go
and I just can't take it all alone
I really should be holding you
Holding you
Loving you loving

Tragedy
When the feeling's gone and you can't go on
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no-one to love you you're goin' nowhere
Tragedy
When you lose control and you got no soul
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no-one beside you you're goin' nowhere

Tragedy... (Repeat)

I May Never Pass This Way Again


I May Never Pass This Way Again
Composer(s): Murray Wizel; Irving Melcher
Performer(s): Perry Como
and multiple other artists



I'll give my hand to those who cannot see
The sunshine or the fallin' rain

I'll sing my song to cheer the weary along
For I may never pass this way again!

I'll share my faith with every troubled heart
So I shall not have lived in vain

I'll give my hand, I'll sing my song
I'll share my faith, because I know
That the time is now to fulfill each vow
For I may never pass this way again!

Just Out Of Reach (Of My Two Open Arms)


Just Out Of Reach (Of My Two Open Arms)
Composer(s): Virgil F. Stewart
Performer(s): Patsy Cline;
and various other artists



Love that runs away from me
Dreams that just won't let me be
Blues that keep on both'rin' me
Chains that just won't set me free
Too far away from you and all your charms
Just out of reach of my two open arms

Each night in dreams I see your face
Mem'ries time cannot erase
Then I awake and find you've gone
I'm so blue, I'm all alone
So far away from lips so sweet and warm
Just out of reach of my two open arms

(That lonesome feeling all the time)
(Knowing you cannot be mine)
Dreams that hurt me in my sleep
Vows that we could never keep
Too far away from lips so sweet and warm
Just out of reach of my two open arms

Trafico Por Katmandu


Trafico Por Katmandu
Composer(s): Fito Páez
Performer(s): Fito Páez



Y te digo
que desde adentro yo me puedo mover
hice un agujero en una inmensa pared
prendí la radio y escuche y escuche
200 chicos mueren hoy sin su AZT
Dime Dios: Hay stop?
donde estés dímelo
si hablábamos de luz
del trafico por Katmandu

No todo el mundo va a dejarse caer
no todo el mundo va a arrastrarse a tus pies
lo que me falta no es la falta de fe
tendrías que pensarlo seriamente esta vez
ademan Art Deco
muéstrame quémalo
si hablábamos de luz
debajo de la Cruz del Sur

No tengo prisa no hay a donde llegar
este milagro es de un perfecto cristal
sabiduría pop me lo hizo entender
que siempre fue lo mismo el mono y Citizen Kane
yo también perdí quimeras
pero me hice buen voyeur

Y te digo
que desde adentro nos podemos mover
hace un agujero en una inmensa pared
después sácate poco a poco la piel
la sangre es para siempre
nada puedes hacer
además, vos y yo
ámame por favor
si amábamos la luz
debajo de la Cruz del Sur

Siempre mas, never stop
te ofrecí mi corazón
si hablábamos de luz
del trafico por Katmandu

I May Be Wrong, But I Won't Be Wrong Always


I May Be Wrong, But I Won't Be Wrong Always
Composer(s): Alvin Lee; Chick Churchill; Ric Lee; Leo Lyons
First release by: Ten Years After - 1968



Tell me baby, tell what's on your mind
Tell me baby, tell what's on your mind
Love you, baby, but I hate your hurtin' kind

Baby, baby, I've got news for you
Baby, baby, I've got news for you
Love you, baby, I don't know what to do

Baby, baby, what's on your worried mind
Baby, baby, what's on your worried mind
Love you, darlin', but I hate your hurtin' kind

Well, the moon looks lonesome, shining through the tree
The moon looks lonesome, shining through those trees
How do you look sad, when your baby packs up to leave

Baby, baby, what's on your worried mind
I say, baby, baby, what's on your worried mind
I don't cheat you, baby, I love you all the time

Love to hear my baby call my name
Love to hear my baby call my name
'Cause now you've got a man, but I call those rings, call me

Tell me baby, tell what's on your mind
Tell me baby, tell what's on your mind
Love you, baby, but I hate your hurtin' kind

Baby, baby, what's all that wrong with you
Baby, baby, what's all that wrong with you
Love you baby, I don't know what to do

I may be wrong, but I won't be wrong always
I may be wrong, but I won't be wrong always
I love you, baby, love you in my own sweet way

Just One Time


Just One Time
Composer(s): Don Gibson
Performer(s): Don Gibson;
and various other artists



If I Could See You Just One Time
Oh How It'd Ease My Troubled Mind
If I Could Hold You Just One Time
And Then Pretend That You're Still Mine

Oh, How I Miss You So
Oh I Need You So
I'd Give This Heart Of Mine
If I Could See You Just One Time

Lips That Used To Thrill Me So
They Now Thrill Someone Else I Know
Gone Is The Love That Once Was Mine
Wish I Could See You Just One Time

Oh, How I Miss You So
Oh I Need You So
I'd Give This Heart Of Mine
If I Could See You Just One Time

Wish I Could Relive Just One Time
Turn Back The Pages And There I'd Find
That Same Old Love That Once Was Mine
Wish I Could See You Just One Time

Oh, How I Miss You So
Oh I Need You So
I'd Give This Heart Of Mine
If I Could See You Just One Time

I May Be Wrong But I Think You're Wonderful


I May Be Wrong But I Think You're Wonderful
Composer(s): Henry Sullivan; Harry Ruskin
Performer(s): The Mills Brothers
and multiple other artists



I may be wrong but I think you're wonderful
I may be wrong but I think you're swell
I like your style say, I think it's marvellous
I'm always wrong so how can I tell
Deuces to me are all aces
Life is to me just a bore
Faces are all open spaces
You might be John Barrymore
You came along say I think you're wonderful
I think you're grand but I may be wrong

I may be wrong but I think you're wonderful
I may be wrong but I think you're swell
I like your style say, I really think it's marvellous
I'm always wrong so how can I tell
Deuces to me are all aces
Life is to me just a bore
Faces are all open spaces
You might be John Barrymore
You came along say I think you're wonderful
I think you're grand but I may be wrong

You said that Edison would never make that light
You laughed at Mr. Franklin with his key and kite
The point of the song is I'm always wrong
But with you baby I'm oh so right

Just One Smile


Just One Smile
Composer(s): Randy Newman
Performer(s): Gene Pitney;
and various other artists



Can't I cry a little bit?
There's nobody to notice it
Can't I cry if I want to?
No-one cares

Why can't I pretend
That you'll love me again?
All I had has been taken from me
Now I cry tears that never become me

Just one smile means forgiving
Just one kiss, the hurt's all gone
Just one smile to make my life worth living
A little dream to build my world upon

How I wish I could say
All the things I want to say
If some way, you could see what's in my heart
Oh, baby

I don't ask for much
A look, a smile, a touch
Try to forget
Lord knows, I'm trying
It's so hard to forget
When your whole world you know is dying

Just one smile means forgiving
Just one kiss, the hurt's all gone
Just one smile to make my life worth living
A little dream to build my world upon

Just one smile please forgiving
Just one kiss, hurt's all gone
Just one smile to make my life worth living
A little dream to build my world upon
Just one smile

Traffic


Traffic
Composer(s): Bernard Lavilliers
Performer(s): Bernard Lavilliers



Traffic vertu
J'aime ou je tue
Magique exclu
Hors de ma vue
Je t'aime encore
J'envoie d'abord
Le cri des villes
Sur du vinyle

Taxi driver
Nœud de vipères
Flic solitaire
Tombé par terre
Amour porno
Chacun sa peau
Je vends du spleen
Tu vends du jean

Lentement je vois
Cet univers-là
Glisser vers le froid
Le compte à rebours
Dans l'air nucléaire
Les derniers rebelles
Brûlent sous les lasers
Du manque d'amour

Que veux-tu que je sois
Dans cette société-là?
Un ange ou un cobra
Un tueur ou un rat?
Où veux-tu que je vive
Dans la radioactive?
Comment veux-tu que je meure
D'un bel accord mineur?

Plastic de choc
Crédit ou cash
Plus on se cache
Plus on décroche
Je suis accroc
Chez les dingos
Milliards de flash
Qui jouent au squash

Regarde-toi
Regarde-moi
On n'se voit plus
On est perdus
Dans le vacarme
Du bruit qui court
Je t'ai menti
Je t'aime encore

Lentement je vois
Cet univers-là
Glisser vers le froid
Le compte à rebours
Dans l'air nucléaire
Les derniers rebelles
Brûlent sous les lasers
Du manque d'amour

Que veux-tu que je sois
Dans cette société-là?
Un ange ou un cobra
Un tueur ou un rat?
Où veux-tu que je vive
Dans la radioactive?
Comment veux-tu que je meure
D'un bel accord mineur?

Je t'aime encore
Je t'aime encore

I Married Joan


I Married Joan
Composer(s): Richard Mack



I married Joan
What a girl, what a whirl, what a life
Oh I married Joan
What a mind, love is blind what a wife

Giddy and gay, all day she keeps my heart laughin'
Never know where her brain has flown
Each to his own
Can't deny that's why I married Joan

Traduzir-Se
Composer(s): Raimundo Fagner - Ferreira Gullar
Performer(s): Raimundo Fagner



Uma parte de mim é todo mundo
Outra parte é ninguém
Fundo sem fundo
Uma parte de mim é multidão
Outra parte estranheza e solidão
Uma parte de mim, pesa
Pondera
Outra parte, delira
Uma parte de mim almoça e janta
Outra parte se espanta
Uma parte de mim é permanente
Outra parte se sabe de repente
Uma parte de mim é só vertigem
Outra parte, linguagem
Traduzir uma parte noutra parte
Que é uma questão de vida ou morte
Será arte?
Será arte?

I Made It Through The Rain


I Made It Through The Rain
Composer(s): Gerard W. Kenny; Drey Shepperd
Performer(s): Barry Manilow
and multiple other artists



We dreamers have our ways
Of facing rainy days
And somehow we survive
We keep our feelings warm
Protect them from the storm
Until our time arrives
Then one day the sun appears
And we come shining through
Those lonely years

I made it through the rain
I kept my world protected
I made it through the rain
I kept my point of view
I made it through the rain
And found myself respected
By the others who
Got rained on too
And made it through

When friends are hard to find
And life seems so unkind
Sometimes you feel afraid
Just aim beyond the clouds
And rise above the crowds
And start your own parade
'Cause when I chased my fears away
That's when I knew
I could finally say...

I made it through the rain
I kept my world protected
I made it through the rain
I kept my point of view
I made it through the rain
And found myself respected
By the others who
Got rained on too
And made it through

A true musician plays
Through all the rainy days
And every song survives
He takes the stage by storm
And keeps the music warm
Until his luck arrives
And then a melody appears
Taking him past
Those weather beaten years...

I made it through the rain
I kept my world protected
I made it through the rain
I kept my point of view
I made it through the rain
And found myself respected
By the others who
Got rained on too
And made it through

No matter how it rains
A singer entertains
And music must be made
Before you draw the crowd
Your pour your heart out loud
And start your own parade
Then you play the clouds away
Waiting until you hear
Your music say...

Then you play the clouds away
Waiting until you hear
Your music say...

I made it through the rain
I kept my world protected
I made it through the rain
I kept my point of view
I made it through the rain
And found myself respected
By the others who
Got rained on too
And made it through

Just One Of Those Things


Just One Of Those Things
Composer(s): Cole Porter
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra;
and various other artists



It was just one o' those things
Just one o' those crazy flings
One o' those bells that now and then rings
Just one o' those things

It was just one o' those nights
Just one o' those fabulous flights
A trip to the moon on gossamer wings
Yes, it was one o' those things

If we'd thought a bit about the end of it
When we started painting that town
We'd have been aware that our love affair
Was too hot not to cool down

So goodbye, goodbye, bye-bye, goodbye, baby, and amen
Here's hopin' we meet now and then
It was great fun
But it was just one o' those things

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
