LYRICS
Girl From Ipanema Original Version: Vinicius De Moraes, Norman Gimbel, Antonio Calos Jobim Olha que coisa mais linda,
Mais cheia de gra?
?ela a menina que vem e que passa,
Num doce balan? a caminho do mar.
Mo? do corpo dourado do sol de Ipanema,
O seu balan?do ?mais que um poema,
?a coisa mais linda que eu j?vi passar.
Ah, por que estou t? sozinho?
Ah, por que tudo ?t? triste?
Ah, a beleza que existe,
A beleza que n? ?s?minha,
Que tamb? passa sozinha.
Ah, se ela soubesse
Que, quando ela passa,
O mundo inteirinho se enche de gra?
E fica mais lindo por causa do amor,
(Ooh) But he sees her so sadly
How can he tell her he loves her
Yes he would give his heart gladly,
But each day, when she walks to the sea
She looks straight ahead, not at him
Tall, and tan, and young, and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes, he smiles
But she doesn’t see
(She just doesn’t see) x6
Tattooed On My Mind
Original Version: D’Sound
Maybe you’ll soon forget about all
Or maybe you’ll miss it like I do
But one thing’s for sure, I’m all knocked out
I spend too much time thinking of you
[Chorus]
And I can’t get you out of my dreams
Now I know that you’re the dangerous kind
And your smile is tattooed on my mind
And I can’t get you out of my dreams
I don’t wanna write
I don’t wanna call
I would not know what to say
It should be you
That’s how I want it to be
Tell me you feel the same way
(Repeat Chorus)
Oh yesterday I was feeling safe
All I do today is try to be brave
And no melody can seem to soothe my mind
Now I curse you for being so sweet and so kind
And I can’t get you out of my dreams
Now I know that you’re the dangerous kind
And your face is tattooed on my mind
And I can’t get you out of my dreams
Yes I know you’re tattooed
On my mind you’re tattooed
(Repeat till fade)
At 17
Original Version: Jaris Ian
I learned the truth at seventeen
That love was meant for beauty queens
And high school girl with clean skinned smiles
Who married young and then retire
The valentines I never knew
The Friday night charades of youth
Were spent on one more beautiful
At seventeen I learned the truth
And those of us with ravaged faces
Lacking in social graces
Desperately remained at home
[Refrain]
Inventing lovers on the phone
Who called to say, "come dance with me"
And murmur vague obscenities
It isn’t all it seems at seventeen
A brown-eyed girl in hand-me-downs
Whose name I never could pronounce said
Pity, please, the ones who serve
They only get what they deserve
The rich-relationed home-town queen
Marries into what she needs
With a guarantee of company and haven for the elderly
[Refrain]
Remember those who win the game
Lose the love they sought to gain
In debentures of quality
And dubious integrity
Their small town eyes will gape at you in
Dull surprise when payment due
Exceeds accounts received at seventeen
To those of us who knew the pain
Of valentines that never came
And those whose names were never called
When choosing sides for basketball
It was long ago and far away
The world was younger than today
And dreams were all they gave for free
To ugly duckling girls like me
We all play the game and when we dare
To cheat ourselves at solitaire
Inventing lovers on the phone
Repeating other lives unknown
That call and say, "come dance with me"
And murmur vague obscenities
At ugly girls like me, at seventeen
Pa rarap-para…
Hey Look At The Sun
Original Version: Nelson Angelo
All of my life
There were things I wanted to do
But they all changed
The moment I set my eyes on you
The magnetism that attracted me to you
There’s something inside I just can’t explain
And now I know what I must do
[Chorus]
Hey look at the sun
It’s finally shining on my life
It’s shining on my life
And it’s all because of you
It’s finally shining on my life
For me and for you
All of my life
I’ve wandered ’round time and again
But I never thought
That all my searching would
Come to an end
And then you came along
And my world of love began
So now I’m going to change my ways
You’re all I want
You’re all I need
(Repeat Chorus)
[Coda]
Hey look at the sun
It’s finally shining on my life
Hey look at the sun
It’s finally shining on my life
Oohhh… Oohhh… Oohhh…
Oohhh… Oohhh… Oohhh…
I Didn’t Know I Was Looking For Love
Original Version: Tracey Thorn, Ben Watt
I was alone thinking I was just fine
I wasn’t looking for anyone to be mine
I thought love was just a fabrication
A train that wouldn’t stop at my station
Home alone, that was my consignment
Solitary confinement
So when we met I was getting around you
I didn’t know I was looking for love…
[Chorus]
Until I found you
I didn’t know I was looking for love
Until I found you, honey
I didn’t know I was looking for love
Until I found you, baby
I didn’t know I was looking for love
I didn’t know I was looking for love
Coz there you stood and I would
Oh I wonder could I say how I felt
And not be misunderstood
A thousand stars came into my system
I never knew how much I had missed them
Slap on the map of my heart you landed
I was coy but you made me candid
And now the planets circle around you
I didn’t know I was looking for love
Until I found you
(Repeat Chorus)
So we built from here with love as the foundation
In a world of tears, one consolation
Now you’re here, there’s a full brass band
Playing in me like a wonderland
And if you left I would be two-foot small
And every tear would be a waterfall
Soundless, boundless, I surround you
I didn’t know I was looking for love
Until I found you…
I just didn’t know
Didn’t know I was looking for love until I found you…
Love.. love…
I just didn’t know…
Love.. love…
Until I found you
Didn’t know I was looking for love until I found you…
Love.. love…
Until I found you
Invisible War
Original Version: Julia Fordham
Invisible war
It seems we’re waging an invisible war
Strained maneuvers keeping silent score
In this invisible war
Every day I seem to lose you more
Both wishing it was like before
In this invisible war
Talk about a fine line between love and hate
We’ve lost more than our direction of late
Talk about a fine line between lovers and friends
We’ve never been lovers and now we’re not even friends
In this invisible war
Seems we’re waging an invisible war
Every day I seem to lose you more
In this invisible war
It wounded deeply the scar is here to stay
Opening up at all the little things I do and say
You always want things to be as before
So I make you angry and you bleed a little more
In this invisible war
Seems that we’re waging an invisible war
Every day I seem to lose you more
In this invisible war
Wanna run away, I still love you
Gotta go away, I’ll always love you
Gotta be away, time heals all wounds
Invisible war
One Note Samba
Orig Ver: Jon Jendricks, Antonio Carlos Jobim, Newton Mendonea
Eis aqui este sambinha
Feito numa nota só
Outras notas vão entrar
Mas a base é uma só
Esta outra é consequência
Do que acabo de dizer
Como eu sou a consequência
Inevitável de você
[Chorus 1]
Quanta gente existe por aí
Que fala tanto
E não diz nada
Ou quase nada
Já me utilizei de toda a escala
E no final não sobrou nada
Não deu em nada
E voltei prá minha nota
Como eu volto prá você
Vou cantar com a minha nota
Como eu gosto de você
E quem quer todas as notas
Ré mi fá sol la si dó
Fica sempre sem nenhuma
Fique numa nota só
[Chorus 2]
There’s so many people who can
Talk and talk and talk
And just say nothing
Or nearly nothing
I have used up all the scale I know
And at the end I’ve come to nothing
Or nearly nothing
So I came back to my first note
As I must come back to you
I will pour into that one note
All the love I feel for you
Anyone who wants the whole show
Re mi fa sol la si do
He will find himself with no show
Better play the note you know
He will find himself with no show
Better play the note you know
He will find himself with no show
Better play the note you know
Soft Melody
Original Version: John Kaizan Neptune
Let’s go into the mountains
We’ll leave it all behind
I’ll take my flute and play for you
I know that you (won’t mind/are mine)
Smiling face, friendly space
Who could ask for more
Quiet place, soft embrace
Who could ask for more
I wanna say I love you
And how much you mean to me
But words can’t go there so I’ll play
A soft melody
Let’s go into the mountains
We’ll leave it all behind
I’ll take my flute and play for you
I know that you (won’t mind/are mine)
Smiling face, friendly space
Who could ask for more
Quiet place, soft embrace
Who could ask for more
I wanna say I love you
And how much you mean to me
But words can’t go there so I’ll play
A soft melody
You On My Mind
Original Version: Andy Connell, Corinne Drewery, Paul ‘O Duffy
Friends say I’ll get over you soon
Thoughts of you come back to fill me with gloom
Time forgets, but I’m not over you yet
There’s no sense in asking why
Until the tears run dry
There’s no one but you on my mind
Searchin’ for the perfect ending that we’ll never find
If we could make it work this time
Years have gone by since you’ve been gone
This broken heart of mine’s been waiting too long
All alone, without you I can’t carry on
There’s no sense in asking why
Until I’m there by your side
There’s no one but you on my mind
Searchin’ for the perfect ending that we’ll never find
If we could make it work this time
We could plant tomorrow’s dreams now together
In a garden to last forevermore
Our love will grow
From the seeds we sow
Pa ra pa pa…
There’s no one but you on my mind
Searchin’ for the perfect ending that we’ll never find
If we could make it work this time
There’ll be no sense in asking why
Waiting until the tears run dry
If you would only change your mind
There’ll be no sense in asking why
Waiting until the tears run dry
If you would only change your mind
If we could make it work this time
Lost In Space
Original Version: Tim Laws, Paul Tucker
Sometimes I get tired of this me first attitude
You are the one thing that keeps me smiling
That’s why I’m always wishing hard for you
‘Cause your life shines so bright
I don’t feel no solitude
You are my first star at night
I’d be lost in space without you
[Chorus]
And I’ll never lose my faith in you
How will I ever get to heaven, if I do
Feels just so fine
When we touch the sky me and you
This is my idea of heaven
Why can’t it always be so good
But it’s alright, I know your out there
Doing what you’ve gotta do
You are my soul satellite
I’d be lost in space without you
(Repeat Chorus) 2x
I’ll never lose my faith in you
I’ll never lose my faith in you
I’ll never lose my faith in you
I’ll never lose my faith in you
Lady Wants To Know
Original Version: Franks
Daddy plays the ashtray
Baby starts to cry
The Lady wants to know
The reason why
Daddy’s just like Coltrane
Baby’s just like Miles
The Lady’s just like heaven
When she smiles
[Chorus]
And the Lady wants to know
She wants to know the reason
Got to know the reason wh
This man has got to go
This man is always leavin’
How he hates to say goodbye
But what she doesn’t know
Is there really is no reason
There really is no reason why
Daddy he hates airplanes
Baby loves to fly
And the Lady wants to know
The reason why
Daddy’s just like Coltrane
Baby’s just like Miles
The Lady’s just like heaven
When she smiles
(Repeat Chorus)
(Repeat Chorus)
Close To You - Half A Minute
Original Version: Burt Bacharach, Nal David
Oooh…
Close to you (3x)
Suddenly you find yourself alone
Why do birds suddenly appear
Everytime you are near
Just like me they long to be
Close to you (3x)
Why do stars fall out from the sky
Everytime you walk by
Just like me they long to be
Close to you (3x)
Suddenly you find yourself alone
Half a minute!
Half a minute!
What is there to say when all the lovers slipped away in half a minute
There is always someone we can blame but in the end it’s just the same
Oh suddenly you find yourself alone
On the day that you were born the angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moondust in your hair
And gold and starlight in your eyes so blue
That is why all the girls in town
Follow you, all around
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you (3x)
Samba Song
Original Version: Bong Pinera
Kung gusto kong kumanta
At gusto ko ring sumayaw
Ako’y sumisipol saka malalaman
Ako pala’y payasong walang kasayaw
Bakit tayo ganito
Mga puso nati’y mailap
Lumapit ka giliw at tayo’y mag-samba
Kahit minsan man lamang
Kay tamis ng musika
Hanggang sa pagsapit ng umaga
Basta’t ang samba’y sayaw
Tayo’y magsasama muli
Walang hahadlang
Wala ring pipigil maski sino man
Narito na ang awit
At narito na ang sayaw
Huwag mong biguin, sinta
Hayaan malasin mo na tayo’y mag-samba
When there’s such sweet music
Until the night is done
Just dance the samba with me
We’ll be together again
Say you love me and I’ll say "I love you too"
This is the time for that song
And this is the time for that dance
I don’t feel alone because
I know that you’ll stay with me
To samba through life with me
To samba through life with me…
Bridges
Original Version: Birth, Fernando Brant
Quando voce toi embora
Fez-se noite em meu viver
Forti eu sou mas nao tem jeito
Hoje eu tenho que chorar
Minha cas nao e minha
E nem e meu este lugar
Estou so e nao resisto
Muito tenho pra falar
Solto a voz nas estradas
Ja nao quero parar
Meu caminho e de pedras
Como posso sonhar
Sonho feito de brisa
Vento vem terminar
Vou fechar o meu pranto
Vou querer me matar
I have crossed a thousand bridges
In my search for something real
There were great suspension bridges
Made of spiderwebs of steel
There were tiny wooden trestles
And there were bridges made of stone
I have always been a stranger
And I’ve always been alone
[Chorus]
There’s a bridge to tomorrow
There’s a bridge from the past
There’s a bridge made of furrow
That I pray will last
There’s a bridge made of colors
In the sky high above
And I’m certain that there must be
Bridges made out of love
Lalala…
Mas Que Nada
Original Version: Jorge Ben
O aria aio oba oba oba (2x)
Mas que nada
Sai da minha frente
Eu quero passer
Pois o samba esta animado
O que eu quero e samba
Este samba que misto de maracatu
E samba de preto velho
Samba de pretu tu
Mas que nada
Um samba como esse tao legal
Voc nao vai querer
Que eu chegue no final
O aria aio oba oba oba (2x)
Wave
Original Version: Antonio Carlos Jobim
So close your eyes for that’s a lovely way to be
Aware of things your heart alone was meant to see
The fundamental loneliness goes
Whenever two can dream a dream together
No, You can’t deny
Don’t try to fight the rising sea
The fundamental loneliness goes
Whenever two can dream a dream together
When I saw you first the time was half past three
And when your eyes met mine it was eternity
By now we know the wave is on its way to be
Just catch the wave don’t be afraid of loving me
The fundamental loneliness goes
Whenever two can dream a dream together
When I saw you first the time was half past three
And when your eyes met mine it was eternity
By now we know the wave is on its way to be
Just catch the wave don’t be afraid of loving me
The fundamental loneliness goes
Whenever two can dream a dream together
Fly Me To The Moon
Original Version: Bart Howard
Fly me to the moon
And let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like
On Jupiter and Mars
In other words hold my hand
In other words darling kiss me
Fill my life with song
And let me sing forevermore
You are all I hope for
All I worship and adore
In other words please be true
In other words I love you
[Instrumental]
Fill my life with song
And let me sing forevermore
You are all I hope for
All I worship and adore
In other words please be true
In other words I love you
Para Sa Akin
Original Version: Emil Pama
Kung ika’y magiging akin
Di ka na muling luluha pa
Pangakong di ka lolokohin
Ng puso kong nagmamahal
Kung ako ay papalarin
Na ako’y iyong mahal na rin
Pangakong ikaw lang ang iibigin
Magpakailanman
[Chorus]
Di kita pipilitin
Sundin mo pang iyong damdamin
Hayaan nalang tumibok ang puso mo
Para sa akin
Kung ako ay mamalasin
At mayroon ka nang ibang mahal
Ngunit patuloy ang aking pagibig
Magpakailanman
(Repeat Chorus)
Kung ako ay papalarin
Na ako’y iyong mahal na rin
Pangakong ikaw lang ang iibigin
Magpakailanman
(Repeat Chorus 2x)
Para sa akin
