abuse and be abused



{Couplet:}

Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
I travel the world
And the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something

{Refrain:}

Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused

{au Couplet}

{au refrain}

Hold your head up
Keep your head up
{x2}

paradise can't be so far



For heavens sake let’s fall in love
It’s no mistake to call it love
An angel’s holding hands with me
How heavenly heaven can be

Here is romance for us to try
Here is a chance we can’t deny
While heaven’s giving us a break
Let’s fall in love for heaven’s sake

Don’t say a word my darling
Don’t break the spell like this
Just hold me tight; we’re alone in the night
And heaven is here with a kiss

This pair of eyes can see a star
So paradise can’t be so far
Since heaven’s what we’re dreaming of
For heaven’s sake, let’s fall in love

siempre es carnaval



Cuántos viven disfrazados
sin saber que así quedaron!
Cuántos se oyen sin reír!
Este mundo es escenario
de un gran cine continuado
que nos hace consumir.

Cuánto, al fin, se macanea,
ya que nunca es todo cierto,
y es un juego el acertar:
"La señora está indispuesta"
o "ha salido hace un momento";
y el esposo se hace el muerto
si es que vienen a cobrar.

Y siempre es carnaval.
Van cayendo serpentinas,
unas gruesas y otras finas
que nos hacen tambalear.
Y cuando en tu disfraz
la careta queda ausente
en tu cara de inocente,
todo el año es carnaval.

Y viva el carnaval!
Vos ves siempre lucecitas.
Sos la eterna mascarita
que gozás con engañar.
Y cuando en tu disfraz
la careta queda ausente
en tu cara de inocente,
todo el año es carnaval.

Qué tuviste una fortuna!
Qué de oro fue tu cuna!
Que esto cuesta: ¡Qué se yo!
Las mujeres y los hombres
por tu amor tocan la luna
y otras cosas más por vos...

Y si hablás de tu familia!...
tu pretérito imperfecto
lo pasaste como un rey.
Yo quisiera que me digas,
y dejando un poco de esto,
si la cuenta vos has hecho
cuántos pesos me debés?

parallel life



Now what am I supposed to do
When I want you in my world
How can I want you for myself
When I'm already someone's girl? [x2]


First time that I saw you boy
It was a warm and sunny day
All I know is I wanted you
I really hoped you looked my way
When you smiled at me
So warm and sweet
I could not speak
You make me feel like a
little bitty girl
What do you do to me

[Chorus x2]


I guess I'll see you next lifetime
No hard feelings
I guess I'll see you next lifetime
I'm gonna be there

You're energy
Feels so damn good to me
It picks me up don't wanna come down
You got me spinning all around
Yeah
You need to know
I've got that somebody
you're beautiful
But it ain't that type of party

[Chorus x2]


Well I guess I'll see
you next lifetime
Baby we'll be butterflies
I guess I'll see you next lifetime
That sounds so divine
I guess I'll see you next lifetime
I guess I will now
I guess I'll see you next lifetime
Wait
Wait a little while

See it ain't nothing
wrong with dreaming
Boy don't get me wrong
Cause every time (every
time) I see you (every
single time)
I know just how strong
(every single time)
That my love is for my baby
But emotions just don't lie
Well I know I'm a lot of woman
But not enough to divide the pie

[Chorus]


I guess I'll see you next lifetime
You know I want to stay around
I guess I'll see you next lifetime
I'm so confused now

[Chorus]


I guess I'll see you next lifetime
Already
I'm going to be there
I guess I'll see you next lifetime
I'm going to look for you

[Chorus]


I guess I'll see you next lifetime
Oh
Oh baby
I'm gonna be there
I'm gonna be there

j'adore, ela é simplesmente formidável



Un pas, une pierre, un chemin qui chemine
Un reste de racine, c'est un peu solitaire
C'est un éclat de verre, c'est la vie, le soleil
C'est la mort, le sommeil, c'est un piège entrouvert

Un arbre millénaire, un nœud dans le bois
C'est un chien qui aboie, c'est un oiseau dans l'air
C'est un tronc qui pourrit, c'est la neige qui fond
Le mystère profond, la promesse de vie

C'est le souffle du vent au sommet des collines
C'est une vieille ruine, le vide, le néant
C'est la pie qui jacasse, c'est l'averse qui verse
Des torrents d'allégresse, ce sont les eaux de Mars

C'est le pied qui avance à pas sûr, à pas lent
C'est la main qui se tend, c'est la pierre qu'on lance
C'est un trou dans la terre, un chemin qui chemine
Un reste de racine, c'est un peu solitaire

C'est un oiseau dans l'air, un oiseau qui se pose
Le jardin qu'on arrose, une source d'eau claire
Une écharde, un clou, c'est la fièvre qui monte
C'est un compte à bon compte, c'est un peu rien du tout

Un poisson, un geste, c'est comme du vif argent
C'est tout ce qu'on attend, c'est tout ce qui nous reste
C'est du bois, c'est un jour le bout du quai
Un alcool trafiqué, le chemin le plus court

C'est le cri d'un hibou, un corps ensommeillé
La voiture rouillée, c'est la boue, c'est la boue
Un pas, un pont, un crapaud qui croasse
C'est un chaland qui passe, c'est un bel horizon
C'est la saison des pluies, c'est la fonte des glaces
Ce sont les eaux de Mars, la promesse de vie

Une pierre, un bâton, c'est Joseph et c'est Jacques
Un serpent qui attaque, une entaille au talon
Un pas, une pierre, un chemin qui chemine
Un reste de racine, c'est un peu solitaire

C'est l'hiver qui s'efface, la fin d'une saison
C'est la neige qui fond, ce sont les eaux de Mars
La promesse de vie, le mystère profond
Ce sont les eaux de Mars dans ton cœur tout au fond

Un pas, une " ... pedra é o fim do caminho
E um resto de toco, é um pouco sozinho ... "
Un pas, une pierre, un chemin qui chemine
Un reste de racine, c'est un peu solitaire...

its like sugar baby



How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

I needed the shelter of someone's arms, and there you were
I needed someone to understand my ups and downs, and there you were
With sweet love and devotion
Deeply touching my emotion
I want to stop and thank you baby
I want to stop and thank you baby

How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

I close my eyes at night
Wondering where would I be without you in my life
Everything I did was just a bore
Everywhere I went it seems I'd been there before
But you brighten up for me all of my days
With a love so sweet in so many ways
I want to stop and thank you baby
I just want to stop and thank you baby

How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

You were better to me than I was to myself
For me, there's you and there ain't nobody else
I want to stop and thank you baby
I just want to stop and thank you baby

How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

make it nice all the way



Someone to hold me tight
That would be very nice
Someone to love me right
That would be very nice
Someone to understand
Each little dream in me
Someone to take my hand
To be a team with me

So nice, life would be so nice
If one day I'd find
Someone who would take my hand
And samba through life with me

Someone to cling to me
Stay with me right or wrong
Someone to sing to me
Some little samba song
Someone to take my heart
And give his heart to me
Someone who's ready to
Give love a start with me

Oh yes, that would be so nice
Should it be you and me, that would be nice

Someone to cling to me
Stay with me right or wrong
Someone to sing to me
Some little samba song
Someone to take my heart
And give his heart to me
Someone who's ready to
Give love a start with me

Oh yes, that would be so nice
Should it be , you and me?
I could see it would be nice...

who loves you?



All I can see is black and white
and white and pink with blades of blue
that lay between the words I think
on a page I was meaning to send her
You I couldn't tell if it bring my heart
the way I wanted when I started
writing this letter to you

If I could you know I would
just hold your hand and you'd understand
I'm the man who loves you

All I can be is a busy sea of
spinning wheels and hands that feel
for stones to throw and feet that run but
they come back home, make no difference
ever known, make no difference
ever known to me

If I could you know I would
just hold your hand and you'd understand
I'm the man who loves you

All I can see is black and white
and white and pink with blades of blue
that lay between the words I think
on a page I was meaning to send her
You I couldn't tell if it bring my heart
the way I wanted when I started
writing this letter to you

If I could you know I would
just hold your hand and you'd understand
If I could you know I would
just hold your hand and you'd understand
If I could you know I would
just hold your hand and you'd understand
I'm the man who loves you
I'm the man who loves you

ain't it tho



The time has come 4 u to see
That love is something else u practise it to be
The line is long
4 u and me
That leads us 2 the very debt of our hearts
We're still on the surface deceiving ourselves
Inside we hate,
and want 2 see our best friends fall... oh

Let us make a change why can't we turn the page
Lord make us able
Without u we are totally unstable

Let us make a change why can't we turn the page
Lord make us able
Without u we are totally unstable

U talk about peace
Put it in ur mouth
The same mouth u use to declare ur bombs
Ur system is a joke
No heart in it
It's choking us to death
We living in decept so
Tell me oh, please tell me that
Love, ain't what u are talking about on TV
Love, ain't what u practice it to be
Love, ain't the Love that u are giving me
Love, gotta be something un can not compare anything to

Let us make a change why can't we turn the page
Lord make us able
Without u we are totally unstable

Let us make a change why can't we turn the page
Lord make us able
Without u we are totally unstable

the colours, red and blue



One night to be confused
One night to speed up truth
We had a promise made
Four hands and then away

Both under influence
We had divine scent
To know what to say
Mind is a razor blade

To call for hands of above
To lean on
Wouldn't be good enough
For me, no

One night of magic rush
The start, a simple touch
One night to push and scream
And then relief

Ten days of perfect tunes
The colors, red and blue
We had a promise made
We were in love

To call for hands of above
To lean on
Wouldn't be good enough
For me, no

To call for hands of above
To lean on
Wouldn't be good enough

And you
You knew the hand of the Devil
And you
Kept us awake with wolf's teeth
Sharing different heartbeats in one night

To call for hands of above
To lean on
Wouldn't be good enough
For me, no

To call for hands of above
To lean on
Wouldn't be good enough

golden leaves


Autumn in New York
Why does it seem so inviting?
Autumn in New York
It spells the thrill of first-nighting

Glittering crowds and shimmering clouds in canyons of steel
They're making me feel I'm home

It's autumn in New York
That brings the promise of new love
Autumn in New York
Is often mingled with pain

Dreamers with empty hands
They sigh for exotic lands

It's autumn in New York
It's good to live it again

Lovers that bless the dark
On benches in Central Park

It's autumn in New York
It's good to live it again

sunday roast



Sunday morning rain is falling
Steal some covers share some skin
Clouds are shrouding us in moments unforgettable
You twist to fit the mold that I am in
But things just get so crazy living life gets hard to do
And I would gladly hit the road get up and go if I knew
That someday it would lead me back to you
That someday it would lead me back to you

That may be all I need
In darkness she is all I see
Come and rest your bones with me
Driving slow on Sunday morning
And I never want to leave

Fingers trace your every outline
Paint a picture with my hands
Back and forth we sway like branches in a storm
Change the weather still together when it ends

That may be all I need
In darkness she is all I see
Come and rest your bones with me
Driving slow on Sunday morning
And I never want to leave

But things just get so crazy living life gets hard to do
Sunday morning rain is falling and I'm calling out to you
Singing someday it'll bring me back to you
Find a way to bring myself back home to you

And you may not know
That may be all I need
In darkness she is all I see
Come and rest your bones with me
Driving slow on Sunday morning

beautiful night



Some day, when I'm awfully low,
When the world is cold,
I will feel a glow just thinking of you
And the way you look tonight.

Oh, You're lovely, with your smile so warm
And your cheeks so soft,
There is nothing for me but to love you,
And the way you look tonight.

With each word your tenderness grows,
Tearing my fears apart
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose,
Touches my foolish heart.

Yes you're lovely, never, ever change
Keep that breathless charm.
Won't you please arrange it?
'Cause I love you
Just the way you look tonight.

With each word your tenderness grows,
Tearing my fears apart
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose,
Touches my foolish heart.

Yes you're lovely, never, ever change
Keep that breathless charm.
Won't you please arrange it?
'Cause I love you
Just the way you look tonight.
Just the way you look tonight.
Darling
Just the way you look tonight.

the boys anthem



Guess who just got back today,
Them wild-eyed boys that'd been away,
Haven't changed, had much to say,
But man, I still think them cats are crazy.
They were askin' if you were around,
How you was, where you could be found.
Told them you were livin' downtown,
Drivin' all the old men crazy.

The boys are back in town, (the boys are back in town).
I said The boys are back in town, the boys are back in town.
The boys are back in town, (the boys are back in town).
The boys are back in town, (the boys are back in town). You know that chick that used to dance a lot,

Every night, she'd be on the floor, shakin' what she's got.
Man, when I tell ya she was cool, she was red hot.
I mean she was steamin'.
And that time over at Johnny's place,
Well, this chick, she got up and slapped Johnny's face,
Man, we just fell about the place,
If that chick don't wanna know, forget her.

The boys are back in town, the boys are back in town.
I said The boys are back in town, the boys are back in town.
The boys are back in town, the boys are back in town.
The boys are back in town, the boys are back in town.

Spread the word around guess who's back in town
You spread the word around
Friday night they'll be dressed to kill,
Down at Dino's bar and grill
The drink will flow, and blood will spill,
And if the boys wanna fight you better let 'em.
That jukebox in the corner blasting out my favorite song,
The nights are gettin' warmer, it won't be long,
Won't be long 'til summer comes,
Now that the boys are here again.

The boys are back in town, (the boys are back in town).
The boys are back in town, (the boys are back in town).
The boys are back in town, (the boys are back in town).

Spread the word around
The boys are back in town, (the boys are back in town).
The boys are back, the boys are back.
The boys are back in town again
They're hangin' down at Dino's
The boys are back in town again!

anything goes



In olden days a glimpse of stockings,
Was looked on as something shocking,
Now heaven knows,
Anything goes.

Good authors too who once knew better words,
Now only use four-letter words,
Writting prose,
Anything Goes.

The world has gone mad today,
And goods bad today,
And blacks white today,
And days night today,
When most guys today,
That women prize today,
Are just silly jigalo's.

So though I'm not a great romance,
I know that I'm bound to answer,
When you propose,
Anything goes.
