(Lyrics)

When the sun shines on the mountain
And the night is on the run
It's a new day
It's a new way
And I fly up to the sun

I can feel the morning sunlight
I can smell the new-mown hay
I can hear God's voice is calling
For my golden sky light way

Una paloma blanca
I'm just a bird in the sky
Una paloma blanca
Over the mountains I fly
No one can take my freedom away

Once I had my share of losing
for they locked me on a chain
Yes they tried to break my power
oh I still can feel the pain

Una paloma blanca
I'm just a bird in the sky
Una paloma blanca
Over the mountains I fly
No one can take my freedom away

Una paloma blanca
I'm just a bird in the sky
Una paloma blanca
Over the mountains I fly
No one can take my freedom away

Atlantis - Donovan (with lyrics)

(Lyrics)

"The continent of Atlantis was an island

Which lay before the great flood
In the area we now call the Atlantic Ocean.
So great an area of land,
That from her western shores
Those beautiful sailors journeyed
To the South and the North America with ease,
In their ships with painted sails.
To them East Africa was a neighbour,
Across a short strait of sea miles.
The great Egyptian age is

But a remnant of The Atlantian culture.
The antediluvian kings colonised the world
All the Gods who play in the mythological dramas
In all legends from all lands were from far Atlantis.

Knowing her fate,
Atlantis sent out ships to all corners of the Earth.
On board were the Twelve:

The poet, the physician, The farmer, the scientist,
The magician and the other so-called Gods of our legends.
Though Gods they were -
And as the elders of our time choose to remain blind
Let us rejoice
And let us sing
And dance and ring in the new Hail Atlantis!"

Way down below the ocean where I wanna be, she may be,
Way down below the ocean where I wanna be, she may be,
Way down below the ocean where I wanna be, she may be.
Way down below the ocean where I wanna be, she may be,
Way down below the ocean where I wanna be, she may be.

My antediluvian baby, oh yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah,
I wanna see you some day
My antediluvian baby, oh yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah,
My antediluvian baby,
My antediluvian baby, I love you, girl,
Girl, I wanna see you some day.
My antediluvian baby, oh yeah
I wanna see you some day, oh My antediluvian baby.
My antediluvian baby, I wanna see you
My antediluvian baby, gotta tell me where she gone
I wanna see you some day Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up,
oh yeah Oh club club, down down, yeah
My antediluvian baby, oh yeah yeah yeah yeah

(Lyrics)

Life goes around in circles
But every couple of turns i find myself alone
And at these times, i see visions
Of a ring up ahead in the road
But i'm riding at full speed
On a great white wooden horse
To catch a ring thats never there

Carousel
I'm riding on a carousel
Carousel
A ride I've come to know all too well
I'm on a carousel

Time's a joker and brings back the same
Sets for the stage for our play-acting game
And at these times, I see visions
An endless déjà vu with different sounding ends
And the jokes on me
I'm reaching for that ring
But I"m keep pulling it away

Carousel
I'm riding on a carousel
Carousel
A ride I've come to know all too well
I'm on a carousel

Carousel
I'm riding on a carousel
Carousel
A ride I've come to know all too well
I'm on a carousel

Carousel
I'm riding on a carousel
Carousel
A ride I've come to know all too well
I'm on a carousel

Carousel
I'm riding on a carousel
Carousel
A ride I've come to know all too well
I'm on a carousel

Let me into your life - The Flood (with lyrics)

(Lyrics)

Hurt you
How could anyone hurt you?
Leave you
How could anyone want to?
You must forget him
Turn away from your sorrow
Let me love you
And I'll show you tomorrow

Just let me into your life
Let me tear down the wall
That is keeping you outside this heart of me
Let me into your life
If I can't have you all
Then at least give me one little part of you
Let me into your life

Trust in me
Let your heart learn to trust in me
Need me
That's the way that it must be
Just let me love you
Can't you see if I was made to?
Darling, let me love you
Why are you so afraid to?

Just let me into your life
Let me tear down the wall
That is keeping you outside this heart of me
Let me into your life
If I can't have you all
Then at least give me one little part of you
Let me into your life
Just let me into your life
Make me part of your life
I will love you forever if you let me into your life

(Lyrics)

You, a float in the lost world of dreams
A mystical maker of schemes
Emotion beyond my means
Me, no more than a grain of sand
And lost in the beach of your land
Unable to understand

When you're near
Reality loses its hold
And loneliness' tears wet my soul
But what goes on inside your mind
And what I know
That fantasy drives us mad
It really can't be so bad
To let it take me one more time

Love, the chances seem so very few
Excuse me for the strange things I do
I'm drowning in an ocean of you

When you're near
Reality loses its hold
And loneliness' tears wet my soul
But what goes on inside your mind
And what I know
That fantasy drives us mad
It really can't be so bad
To let it take me one more time 

See me, hear me - Anarchic System (subtitled in portuguese) with lyrics

(Lyrics)

Love me, hear me and close to me
You look at the stars in the sky
See me, hear me, love me, hot me
The tears have come in my eyes
Hear me, love me
Don't try to move
I love you forever and ever

The sun is dead
And the moon far away
The sea and the sky in the cloud
Remember my love
Remember you are all 
Remember the past we have

See me, hear me, love me, hot me
The tears have come in my eyes
Hear me, love me Don't try to move
I love you forever and ever

See me, hear me, love me, hot me
The tears have come in my eyes
Hear me love me
Don't try to move
I love you forever and ever

Papa - Paul Anka (with lyrics)

(Lyrics)

Everyday my papa would work to help to make ends meet
To see that we would eat, keep those shoes upon my feet
Every night my papa would take and tuck me in my bed
Kiss me on my head after all the prayers were said
Growing up with him was easy time just flew on by
The years began to fly, he aged and so did I

I could tell that mama wasn't well
Papa knew and deep down so did she, so did she
When she died my papa broke down and cried
All he said was "God, why not take me?"

Every night he sat there sleeping in his rocking chair
He never went upstairs, all because she wasn't there
Then one day my papa said "Son, I'm proud the way you've grown.
Make it on your own. Oh, I'll be ok alone"

Every time I kiss my children papa's words ring true
"Your children live through you, they'll grow and leave you, too"
I remember every word my papa used to say
I live them everyday he taught me well that way

Every night my papa would take and tuck me in my bed
Kiss me on my head when my prayers were said
Every night my papa would take and tuck me in my bed
Tuck me in my bed after my prayers were said ...

You know my dreams - Ruser (1977) (subtitled in portuguese) with lyrics

(Lyrics)

Girl, you know my dreams it's you
Because I think of you
Only you, and baby

Now it's a better day
Cause you're here to stay
All my life, so babe

La, la, la,...

Now it's a better day
Cause you're here to stay
Day by day, you give me

Love, a painful love apart
Because my dream came true
Treaty is due, oh, baby

La, la, la..

You tell me that you see
A love for you in me
Just for you, and babe

Now, I care you that up here
And girl for being real
Your love is real, oh, baby

La, la, la... oh, baby

Sacramento - Middle of the Road (1972) with lyrics

(Lyrics)

There's something about the weather that everybody loves,
They call it the Indian Spring of Sacramento,
Oh, when the sun is up in the sky,
The wind is coming by the River Side Coast every day,
You're in Sacramento, a wonderful town, (sing, sing, sing,
ding-a-ding).

There's something about the people that everybody knows,
That gives you a tender feeling of protection.
You're feeling lonely, but you don't know
Until that sad old feeling here inside you starts to grow.
You're in Sacramento, a wonderful town, (sing, sing, sing,
ring-a-ding).

Now the spring is near again,
And you thinking upon the evil nights so lonely,
But you can ease you at a smile
With all these people and a loving man
In Sacramento -

There's something about the weather that everybody loves,
They call it the Indian Spring of Sacramento,
You're feeling lonely, but you don't know
Until that sad old feeling here inside you starts to grow.
You're in Sacramento, a wonderful town, (sing, sing, sing,
ding-a-ding).

Cha la la, I need you - The Shuffles (live) with lyrics

(Lyrics)

Looked at you one day
Did you turn away.
Since you're on my mind
There's no peace, I find.

Sha la la, I need you
Sha la la, I love you

I can't sleep without you
For time love was true
Had you go away
Can't you hear me pray

Sha la la, I need you
Sha la la, I love you

Honey, can't you see
what you mean to me?
We had climb so high
Why I love, should die

Sha la la, I need you
Sha la la, I love you

Please don't close the door
Give me a chance once more
Let me in and stay
Smile at me and say

Sha la la, I need you
Sha la la, I love you

Sha la la, I need you
Sha la la, I love you

That's wy I love you - Johnny Cabash (with lyrics)

(Lyrics)

I chose you
Amongst so many other girls
you are so different, so very different
The way you talk, the way you feel
Brings us so close, when you whisper to me...

What in the world would I do
Without a girl like you
That's why I love you, that's why I love you

We're so very happy
When we're together
Just that thought,
Makes a tear roll down my face
There were times
That I was unfaithful with you darling
And then my eyes open
And I thank to you, because...

What in the world would I do
Without a girl like you
That's why I love you, that's why I love you

Jamie (my love) - Camilo Sesto (1976) (with lyrics)

(Lyrics)

I took her to the airport
She had to catch the plane
Going away, going away from me
I took her to the airport
I knew this was the end
Nothing to do now
Nothing to say
Only say goodbye

Jamie, my love
Don't run away from me
Jamie, my love
Without you I won't succeed
Jamie, my love
Forgive me if I was wrong
Jamie, believe me now, please

I took her to the airport
She had to catch the plane
Going away, going away from me
As she lay in my arms
I tried to make her stay
Nothing to do now
Nothing to say
Only say goodbye

Jamie, my love
Don't run away from me
Jamie, my love
Without you I won't succeed
Jamie, my love
Forgive me if I was wrong
Jamie, believe me now, please

Oh, please Jamie
Oh, please Jamie
Jamie...

She did it to me - Slad (with lyrics)

(Lyrics)

Anytime you feel like you're down
Anytime you want a friend around
Cos I knew that soon we'd fall
Everyday has said it all
And I've landed with my two feer on the ground


She can read in your eyes
All the truths, all the lies
She did it to me, she did it to me
She can read how you're made
In the light, in the shade
She did it to me, she did it to me


Anytime you fell like a pain
Anytime you want to talk again
Cos I knew you that soon we'd dry
Everyday will tell you why
And for old times sake we'll meet up in the rain
Cos I knew you hadn't planned
Everyday so understand
When you're tired of sugar dad will I be here


She can read in your eyes
All the truths, all the lies
She did it to me, she did it to me
She can read how you're made
In the light, in the shade
She did it to me, she did it to me

Pedro nadie - Nicola de Bari

Pedro nadie - Piero (with lyrics)

(Lyrics)

Pedro venia con la mañana a cuestas
pensando en la Juana para la siesta
tenia en la mano trigo de lunes
y un amor puro como la tierra
tenia en la mano...

Se saboreaba un mate largo como el viento
mi patria es el surco,contaba Pedro
soy campesino de campo ajeno
tengo los pies como camino viejo
soy campesino...

Pedro arado, Pedro tierra,
Pedro de la Juana,
Pedro de la guitarra,
Pedro nadie, Pedro, Pedro
Pedro de la guitarra,
Pedro nadie, Pedro, Pedro

Pedro tomaba vino cabeza gacha
con los ojos profundos contaba Pedro
de la Juana, de la chacra
del arado, de la miseria
de la Juana...

Pedro arado...
