Born under a bad sign





One, two
Born under a bad sign
I been down since I begin to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all
Hard luck and trouble is my only friend
I been on my own ever since I was ten
Born under a bad sign
I been down since I begin to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all
I can't read, haven't learned how to write
My whole life has been one big fight
Born under a bad sign
I been down since I begin to crawl
[  From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/a/albert-king-lyrics/born-under-a-bad-sign-lyrics.html ]
If it wasn't for bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all
I ain't lyin'
If it wasn't for bad luck I wouldn't have no kind-a luck
If it wasn't for real bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all
Wine and women is all I crave
A big legged woman is gonna carry me to my grave
Born under a bad sign
I been down since I begin to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all
Yeah, my bad luck boy
Been havin' bad luck all of my days, yes

Nothing's the same





Another time, another place.
The lonely streets where we embraced.
Then you would go without a trace.
Nothing's the same without you.

Another day goes passing by.
I sit alone and wonder why.
Sometimes it's hard, but I will try
To live my life without you.

You're in my heart, you're in my dreams.
You're everywhere or so it seems.
So many times I've heard that song.
Hold back the tears, pretend you're strong.

Another day goes slowly by.
I sit alone and wonder why.
I think of you, I start to cry.
Nothing's the same without you.

Another time, another place.
The sweetness of our last embrace.
What would I give to see your face.
Nothing's the same without you.

Nothing's the same,
nothing's the same,
nothing's the same without you.

Tell Him ..






Tell Him  Barbra Streisand and Celine Dion


I'm scared
So afraid to show I care
Will he think me weak
If I tremble when I speak
Oooh
What if
There's another one he's thinking of
Maybe he's in love
I'd feel like a fool
Life can be so cruel
I don't know what to do

 I've been there
With my heart out in my hand
But what you must understand
You can't let the chance
To love him pass you by
Tell him

Tell him that the sun and moon

Rise in his eyes
Reach out to him
And whisper
Tender words so soft and sweet



I'll hold him close to feel his heart beat

Love will be the gift you give yourself
Touch him

Oooh
With the gentleness you feel inside
I feel it
Your love can't be denied
The truth will set you free
You'll have what's meant to be


All in time you'll see

Oooh
I love him
Then show him
Of that much I can be sure
Hold him close to you
I don't think I could endure
If I let him walk away
When I have so much to say

Tell him

Tell him that the sun and moon

Rise in his eyes
Reach out to him
And whisper
Tender words so soft and swee

Hold him close to feel his heart beat
Love will be the gift you give yourself
Love is light that surely glows
In the hearts of those who know
It's a steady flame that grows
Feed the fire with all the passion you can show
Tonight love will assume its place
This memory time cannot erase
Your faith will lead love where it has to go

 Tell him

Tell him that the sun and moon
Rise in his eyes
Reach out to him
And whisper
Whisper words so soft and sweet

Hold him close to feel his heart beat
Love will be the gift you give yourself


Oooh

Never let him go.



piensa en mi..








 Luz Casal
Si tienes un hondo penar
piensa en mí;
si tienes ganas de llorar
piensa en mí.
Ya ves que venero
tu imagen divina,
tu párvula boca
que siendo tan niña,
me enseñó a besar.

Piensa en mí
cuando beses,
cuando llores
también piensa en mí.

Cuando quieras
quitarme la vida,
no la quiero para nada,
para nada me sirve sin ti.





Je suis malade





Je ne rêve plus, je ne fume plus
Je n'ai même plus d'histoire
Je suis sale sans toi, 
je suis laide sans toi
Je suis comme un orphelin dans un dortoir

Je n'ai plus envie de vivre ma vie
Ma vie cesse quand tu pars
Je n'ai plus de vie et même mon lit
Se transforme en quai de gare
Quand tu t'en vas
Je suis malade, complètement malade

Comme quand ma mère sortait le soir
Et qu'elle me laissait seule avec mon désespoir

Je suis malade, parfaitement malade
T'arrives on ne sait jamais quand
Tu repars on ne sait jamais où
Et ça va faire bientôt deux ans
Que tu t'en fous
Comme à un rocher, comme à un pêche
Je suis accrochée à toi
Je suis fatiguée, je suis épuisée
De faire semblant d'être heureux quand ils sont là
Je bois toutes les nuits, mais tous les whiskies
Pour moi ont le même goût
Et tous les bateaux portent ton drapeau

Je ne sais plus où aller, tu es partout
Je suis malade, complètement malade
Je verse mon sang dans ton corps
Et je suis comme un oiseau mort quand toi tu dors
Je suis malade, parfaitement malade
Tu m'as privée de tous mes chants
Tu m'as vidée de tous mes mots
Pourtant moi j'avais du talent avant ta peau
Cet amour me tue et si ça continue

Je crèverai seule avec moi
Près de ma radio, comme un gosse idiot
Ecoutant ma propre voix qui chantera

Je suis malade, complètement malade
Comme quand ma mère sortait le soir
Et qu'elle me laissait seule avec mon désespoir
Je suis malade, c'est ça, je suis malade
Tu m'as privée de tous mes chants
Tu m'as vidée de tous mes mots
Et j'ai le cour complètement malade
Cerné de barricades, t'entends ..
 je suis malade


Ταξίδεψέ με ..



"Τα τραγούδια των ανθρώπων .. " γράφει κάπου ο Χικμέτ
"...πιο βαριά από ελπίδα ,
πιο λυπημένα ,
πιο διαρκή .. "

Κι εγώ απόψε θέλω εδώ ,
σ ένα τραγούδι,
σ ένα ταξίδι .. μακρύ κι απρόσμενο , 
δίχως πυξίδα .. 


για οπουδήποτε .. 



Στίχοι: Βασ. Παπαδόπουλος
Μουσική: Δημ. Κορδατζής
Εκτέλεση: Νότης Σφακιανάκης






Ταξίδεψέ με σ' ένα ταξίδι
χωρίς πυξίδα για οπουδήποτε
μαζί σου να 'μαι και δε φοβάμαι
σου λέω τίποτε

Άλλοι κοιτούν τον ουρανό και χάνονται
εγώ δεν έμαθα ποτέ να δραπετεύω
άλλοι κοιτούν τον ουρανό και χάνονται
εγώ κοιτώ τα μάτια σου και ταξιδεύω

Ταξίδεψέ με σ' ένα ταξίδι
που κάνουν λίγοι μακρύ κι απρόσμενο
κι αυτό το βράδυ και το άλλο βράδυ
και το επόμενο

Είναι που όλα ήρθαν αργά..




Διάφανα Κρίνα 
Στίχοι  Παντ. Ροδοστόγλου

Μουσική   Διάφ. Κρίνα 
Λυπάμαι που δεν έγινα μια θάλασσα για σένα
Να με κοιτάς νοσταλγικά με τα μαλλιά βρεγμένα
Λυπάμαι που δεν έγινα Σαχάρα να ουρλιάζεις
Κάτω από τ' άστρα από χαρά να κλαίς, ν' ανατριχιάζεις
Λυπάμαι που δεν έγινα βράχος να ξαποστάσεις
Βότσαλο αψηλάφητο να σκύψεις να το πιάσεις.

Είναι που όλα ήρθαν αργά και πώς να συνηθίσω
Την άπειρή σου ομορφιά, τον τρυφερό σου ίσκιο
Είναι που όλα ήρθαν αργά και πώς να συνηθίσω
Την άπειρή σου ομορφιά μαράθηκα πριν ζήσω.

Πολλούς θανάτους έζησα μα σαν κι αυτόν για σένα
Πολλούς θανάτους έζησα μα σαν κι αυτόν κανένα...

As Time Goes By ..( play it Sam..)






[This day and age we're living in
Gives cause for apprehension
With speed and new invention
And things like fourth dimension.
Yet we get a trifle weary
With Mr. Einstein's theory.
So we must get down to earth at times
Relax relieve the tension
And no matter what the progress
Or what may yet be proved
The simple facts of life are such
They cannot be removed.]

You must remember this
A kiss is just a kiss, a sigh is just a sigh.
The fundamental things apply
As time goes by.
And when two lovers woo
They still say, "I love you."
On that you can rely
No matter what the future brings
As time goes by.

Moonlight and love songs
Never out of date.
Hearts full of passion
Jealousy and hate.
Woman needs man
And man must have his mate
That no one can deny.
It's still the same old story
A fight for love and glory
A case of do or die.
The world will always welcome lovers
As time goes by.

Oh yes, the world will always welcome lovers
As time goes by.

Cry me a river


                                                                                                               Ella Fitzgerald


Now you say you’re lonely
You cry the long night through
Well, you can cry me a river
Cry me a river
I cried a river over you

Now you say you’re sorry
For being so untrue
Well, you can cry me a river
Cry me a river
I cried a river over you

You drove me, nearly drove me, out of my head
While you never shed a tear
Remember, I remember, all that you said?
You told me love was too plebeian
Told me you were through with me and
Now you say you love me
Well, just to prove that you do
Come on and cry me a river
Cry me a river
I cried a river over you
I cried a river over you
I cried a river, over you

You drove me, nearly drove me, out of my head
While you never shed a tear
Remember, I remember, all that you said?
You told me love was too plebeian
Told me you were through with me and
Now you say you love me
Well, just to prove that you do
Come on and cry, cry, cry me a river
Cry me a river
I cried, I cried, I cried a river over you

If my pillow talk, imagine what it would have said
Could it be a river of tears I cried instead?
Well you can cry me a river
Go ahead and cry me a river
‘Cause I cried, I cried a river over you
How I cried a river over you

A Cry For Love




The Black Heart Procession 





Love not our love
love isn't supposed to be this way
love is a poison ring
and love has poured you drinks
now love waits for you to sleep
don't lend it to a friend
'cause you may never see that friend again
don't bother with a cover 'cause love can
pick out the fakes
but that's not our love
not our love
this crime of love
love isn't supposed to be this way
love will sting and love will burn
love will steal all you've learned
yes it will but not our love
sometimes in your back
and sometimes in your heart
it's a double edged sword
don't you bother with a cover
'cause in a crowd love can pick out the fakes
but that's not our love
not our love
(and the girls sing along) do you hear this cry for
love
do you see this crime of love
love waits for you to sleep
don't lend it to a friend
you can easily pick out the fakes
don't you see this crime of love
this crime of love holds you here
sting burn steal learn
don't turn your back on my heart
you can easily pick out the fakes

Cry Baby








I know she told you,
I know she told you that she loved you
Much more than I do,
But I know she left you,
And you swear that you just don't know why,
Well, you know that I'll always be round
If you ever want me
Come on and cry, cry baby, cry baby, cry baby, yeah,
Oh, like you always seem to do.

Don't you know,
Honey, nobody ever gonna love you
The way I try to do.
Who'll be willing to take your pain
And all your heartache, too ?
Honey, I swear I'll always, I'll always be around
If you ever want me
Come on and cry, cry baby, cry baby yeah, cry baby, yeah,
Oh daddy, welcome back home, yeah.

I know when you're sharp and round, babe,
Seems like the grass always looks greener,
When you're looking over there in somebody else's back-yard
So I know what you're tryin' to tell me
When you say, mama, mama, mama, mama, mama,
I've gotta go out shopping for my life
I've gotta find my, my own true third eye,
Hare Krishna identity out there on the road there.

And although it may be comfortable here
Sleeping in all your nice bed with all those satin sheets
And all that nice fur, eatin' all that chicken
Gettin' stoned, havin' a good time I have to go and rough it
I have to go to Africa
Or I have to go to Omaha, or some place like that,
I have to find myself, you know what I mean ?
So there's this stud, man, walkin' around the fuckin' highways of America with a pack on his back
Lookin' for his identity, right ?

Well, I want to say baby don't you know you left your mama here all alone ?
You left your good lovin' mama right at home
And that should be identity enough for any man, ha ha ha!
So I said baby, I know that you're gonna come home to me some day
And I'll be able to tell when you walk in my front door
I do, I just do believe that I can be lookin' in your eyes
So Lord, you finally realize
So you can put your head on my shoulder, babe,
'Cause I know you got some more tears to share,
Come on, let it go,
So come on, come on, come on, come on, come on,
Honey, cry, cry baby, cry baby, cry,

Honey when you got some more tears to shed
Honey I won't let a man stand in your way, babe,
You have to snap all your fear from the door house away dear
You just gotta let it go, baby, come on,
Honey cry, oh, cry to me baby.
Is it a hit or a miss ?               
Janis Joplin "cry baby" 

"Adagio"





"Adagio"

I don't know where to find you
I don't know how to reach you
I hear your voice in the wind
I feel you under my skin
Within my heart and my soul
I wait for you
Adagio

All of these nights without you
All of my dreams surround you
I see and I touch your face
I fall into your embrace
When the time is right I know
You'll be in my arms
Adagio

I close my eyes and I find a way
No need for me to pray
I've walked so far
I've fought so hard
Nothing more to explain
I know all that remains
Is a piano that plays
If you know where to find me
If you know how to reach me
Before this light fades away
Before I run out of faith
Be the only man to say
That you'll hear my heart
That you'll give your life
Forever you'll stay
Don't let this light fade away
Don't let me run out of faith
Be the only man to say
That you believe, make me believe
You won't let go
Adagio



Dust in the Wind - Kansas







Dust in the Wind - Kansas



I close my eyes, only for a moment, and the moment's gone
All my dreams pass before my eyes, a curiosity
Dust in the wind, all they are is dust in the wind.
Same old song, just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do crumbles to the ground, though we refuse to see

Dust in the wind, all we are is dust in the wind

Don't hang on, nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
It slips away, and all your money won't another minute buy

Dust in the wind, all we are is dust in the wind
Dust in the wind, everything is dust in the wind.



Who Will Take My Dreams Away





I can't give you all my dreams
Nor the life I live.
You and I know what friendship means,
That's all we got to give.

Who will take your dreams away
Takes your soul another day.
What can never be lost is gone,
It's stolen in a way.

Please, don't stand too close to me,
Can you hear my heart ?
Take my warmth and lean on me
When we're not apart.

Now our mission is complete
And our friends are here. (?)
Evil things brought down by the light,
Life goes on until the end.


Marianne Faithfull - Who Will Take My Dreams Away


Try me..


Ruby Winters  " Try me "


If you really wanna know if I can stand your brand of
love,
Try me.
Why don’t you try me?
If you wanna know if I’m affected by the moon above,
Then try me.
Come on and try me.
Don’t you know my heart feels a strong desire
When I’m thrilled by the warmth of your touch?
Baby, don’t you know my soul’s on fire,
And I need your lovin’ so much.

If you really wanna know if I am longing for your kiss,
Then try me.
Why won’t you try me.
If you think that I’ll get weak in a cozy spot like
this,
Please try me.
I beg you, try me.
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/e/esther-phillips-lyrics/try-me-lyrics.html]
If you’re wondrin’ ‘bout the magic in stars and soft
caresses
There’s only one way to know if it’s right:
Just take me in your arms, baby, and try, try me
tonight.


Don’t you know my heart feels a strong desire
When I’m thrilled by the warmth of your touch?
Baby, don’t you know my soul’s on fire,
And I need your lovin’ so much.
Just take me your arms and try me tonight
I want you to take me in your arms, and come on, and
try me tonight
I beg you, try me, try me, try me, try me tonight.
