John Lennon ー Mother


John Lennon - Mother lyrics
(clock chiming)
Mother, you had me but I never had you,
I wanted you but you didn't want me,
So I got to tell you,
Goodbye, goodbye.
Farther, you left me but I never left you,
I needed you but you didn't need me,
So I got to tell you,
Goodbye, goodbye.
Children, don't do what I have done,
I couldn't walk and I tried to run,
So I got to tell you,
Goodbye, goodbye.
Mama don't go,
Daddy come home.
Mama don't go,
Daddy come home.
Mama don't go,
Daddy come home.
Mama don't go,
Daddy come home.
Mama don't go,
Daddy come home.
Mama don't go,
Daddy come home.
Mama don't go,
Daddy come home..

PAUL SIMON / MOTHER AND CHILD REUNION




In memory of 

our beloved mother 

who departed to heaven 

on July 27 2010



No I would not give you false hope
On this strange and mournful day
But the mother and child reu-nion
Is only a motion away, oh, little darling of mine.
I cant for the life of me
Remember a sadder day
I know they say let it be
But it just dont work out that way
And the course of a lifetime runs
Over and over again

No I would not give you false hope
On this strange and mournful day
But the mother and child reu-nion
Is only a motion away, oh, little darling of mine.

I just cant believe its so,
And though it seems strange to say
I never been laid so low
In such a mysterious way
And the course of a lifetime runs
Over and over again

But I would not give you false hope
On this strange and mournful day
When the mother and child reu-nion
Is only a motion away,
Oh, oh the mother and child reunion
Is only a motion away
Oh the mother and child reu-nion
Is only a moment away

Grace Potter and Joe Satriani cover Cortez the Killer



He came dancing across the water
With his galleons and guns
Looking for the new world
In that palace in the sun.

On the shore lay Montezuma
With his coca leaves and pearls
In his halls he often wondered
With the secrets of the worlds.

And his subjects
gathered 'round him
Like the leaves around a tree
In their clothes of many colors
For the angry gods to see.

And the women all were beautiful
And the men stood
straight and strong
They offered life in sacrifice
So that others could go on.

Hate was just a legend
And war was never known
The people worked together
And they lifted many stones.

They carried them
to the flatlands
And they died along the way
But they built up
with their bare hands
What we still can't do today.

And I know she's living there
And she loves me to this day
I still can't remember when
Or how I lost my way.

He came dancing across the water
Cortez, Cortez
What a killer.

GALLERY - "I Believe In Music" (1972)



I could just sit around, making music all day long. 
As long as I'm making my music ain't gonna do nobody no harm. 
And who knows, maybe I'll come up with a song 
To make people want to stop all this fussing and fighting 
Long enough to sing along. 

CHORUS: 
I believe in music 
I believe in love 
I believe in music 
I believe in love. 

Music is love and love is music if you know what I mean 
People who believe in music are the happiest people I've ever seen 
So clap your hands and stomp your feet and shake those tambourines 
Lift your voices to the sky; tell me what you see. 

(CHORUS) 

Music is the universal language, and love is the key 
To peace hope and understanding, and living in harmony 
So take your brother by the hand and come along with me 
Lift your voices to the sky, tell me what you see. 

(CHORUS) 

Tom Jones - She's a Lady




Well she's all you'd ever want,
She's the kind they'd like to flaunt and take to dinner.
Well she always knows her place.
She's got style, she's got grace, She's a winner.
She's a Lady. Whoa whoa whoa, She's a Lady.
Talkin' about that little lady, and the lady is mine.
Well she's never in the way
Always something nice to say, Oh what a blessing.
I can leave her on her own
Knowing she's okay alone, and there's no messing.
She's a lady. Whoa, whoa, whoa. She's a lady.
Talkin' about that little lady, and the lady is mine.
Well she never asks for very much and I don't refuse her.
Always treat her with respect, I never would abuse her.
What she's got is hard to find, and I don't want to lose her
Help me build a mountain from my little pile of clay. Hey, hey, hey.
Well she knows what I'm about,
She can take what I dish out, and that's not easy,
Well she knows me through and through,
She knows just what to do, and how to please me.
She's a lady. Whoa, whoa, whoa. She's a lady.
Talkin' about that little lady and the lady is mine.
Yeah yeah yeah She's a Lady
Listen to me baby, She's a Lady
Whoa whoa whoa, She's a Lady
And the Lady is mine
Yeah yeah yeah She's a Lady
Talkin about this little lady
Whoa whoa whoa whoa
Whoa and the lady is mine
Yeah yeah She's a Lady
And the Lady is mine.

Cliff Richard- Evergreen Tree



Oh darling, 
will our love be like an evergreen tree 
Stay ever green and young as the seasons go
Your kisses could make love grow like an evergreen tree 
Bloom in the summer's sun and the winter's snow

On every branch will blossom, 
dreams for me and you 
Our tree of love will stay ever green, 
if our hearts stay ever true


Oh darling, I love you so, 
don't you know that I'll be 
True 'til the leaves turn blue on the evergreen tree

On every branch will blossom, 
dreams for me and you 
Our tree of love will stay ever green, if our
hearts stay ever true 
Oh darling, I love you so,
don't you know that I'll be 
True 'til the leaves turn blue 
on the evergreen tree

On the evergreen tree, 
on the evergreen tree.

Michael Buble - Feeling Good

Michael Bublé - Feeling Good
lyrics

Birds flying high
You know how I feel
Sun in the sky
You know how I feel
Breeze driftin' on by
You know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good

Fish in the sea
You know how I feel
River running free
You know how I feel
Blossom on a tree
You know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good

Dragonfly out in the sun you know what I mean, don't you know
Butterflies all havin' fun you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when day is done
That's what I mean
And this old world is a new world
And a bold world
For me

For me

Stars when you shine
You know how I feel
Scent of the pine
You know how I feel
Oh freedom is mine
And I know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life

It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life

It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
It's a new life
For me

For me

I'm feeling good
I feel so good
I feel so good

Simon And Garfunkel - The Boxer




Simon And Garfunkel

The Boxer Lyrics

I am just a poor boy
Though my story's seldom told
I have squandered my resistance
For a pocket full of mumbles such are promises
All lies and jests
Still a man hears what he wants to hear
And disregards the rest

When I left my home and my family
I was no more than a boy
In the company of strangers
In the quiet of the railway station running scared
Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
Where the ragged people go
Looking for the places only they would know

Lie la lie ...

Asking only workman's wages
I come looking for a job
But I get no offers,
Just a come-on from the whores on Seventh Avenue
I do declare, there were times when I was so lonesome
I took some comfort there

Lie la lie ...

Then I'm laying out my winter clothes
And wishing I was gone
Going home
Where the New York City winters aren't bleeding me
Bleeding me, going home

In the clearing stands a boxer
And a fighter by his trade
And he carries the reminders
Of ev'ry glove that layed him down
Or cut him till he cried out
In his anger and his shame
"I am leaving, I am leaving"
But the fighter still remains

Lie la lie ...

Albano e Romina Power- Io di notte


Italian

English translation


Io di notte sono qui


e ripenso ancora a te.


E mi sembra che così 


tu sia vicino a me.





Io di notte sono qui 


senza chiedermi il perché.


Sto pensando alla mia vita 


così legata a te.





Sono un uomo come quelli 


che non san dimenticare 


e perciò spero ancora che


tu ritornerai da me. 





Io di notte sono

qui
e ripenso ancora a te.


E mi sembra che così 


tu sia vicino a me,


vicino a me, 


vicino a me.


I'm here tonight

n again I'm thinking about you

It feels as if

you're here by my side.


I'm here tonight

without asking why.

I'm thinking about my life

so tied to you.


I am a man such as those

who are unable to forget

I still hope that

you will come back to me.


I'm here tonight

n again I'm thinking about you

It feels as if

you're here by my side.

by my side,

by my side.

John Mayer - Waiting On The World To Change - Rove Live


JOHN MAYER LYRICS
"Waiting On The World To Change"

Me and all my friends
We're all misunderstood
They say we stand for nothing and
There's no way we ever could

Now we see everything that's going wrong
With the world and those who lead it
We just feel like we don't have the means
To rise above and beat it

So we keep waiting
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting
Waiting on the world to change

It's hard to beat the system
When we're standing at a distance
So we keep waiting
Waiting on the world to change

Now if we had the power
To bring our neighbors home from war
They would have never missed a Christmas
No more ribbons on their door
And when you trust your television
What you get is what you got
Cause when they own the information, oh
They can bend it all they want

That's why we're waiting
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting
Waiting on the world to change

It's not that we don't care,
We just know that the fight ain't fair
So we keep on waiting
Waiting on the world to change

And we're still waiting
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting waiting on the world to change
One day our generation
Is gonna rule the population
So we keep on waiting
Waiting on the world to change

We keep on waiting
Waiting on the world to change
