Galopa Murrieta

¿Donde está el atrevido jinete?
vengando a su pueblo y su gente
¿Donde esta el solitario insurgente,
al que ayer lo oculto su vestuario?
¿Donde esta su caballo y su rayo?
¿Donde asechan sus ojos ardientes?
CORO: Galopa, galopa

Lo dice la arena que traigo
la sangre de los desdichados

Galopa, galopa

Lo dice la luna que ahí va la venganza
en esta montura
Va certero y seguro este rayo
Vengando en la noche a los suyos
Sin bandera, sin ley, sin destino,
solo tiene un dolor asesino
Hay nocturno chileno distante
azotado por daño incesante

REPETIR CORO

Hay nocturno chileno distante
azotado por daño incesante

Galopa, galopa

Lo dice la arena que traigo
la sangre de los desdichados
Hay nocturno chileno y distante
azotado por rayo incesante

Galopa, galopa

Lo dice la luna que ahí va
la venganza en esa montura
Hay nocturno chileno y distante
azotado por daño incesante
Hay nocturno chileno y distante
azotado por daño incesante

Galopa, galopa galopa, galopa

Hay nocturno...

Unicornio Azul

Mi unicornio azul ayer se me perdió
pastando lo deje y desapareció
cualquier información bien la voy a pagar
las flores que dejó no me han querido hablar.
Mi unicornio azul ayer se me perdió
no se si se me fue, no se si se extravío
y yo no tengo más que un unicornio azul
si alguien sabe de el, le ruego información
cien mil o un millón yo pagaré
mi unicornio azul, se me ha perdido ayer, se fue.

Mi unicornio y yo hicimos amistad
un poco con amor, un poco con verdad
con su cuerno de añil pescaba una canción
saberla compartir era su vocación.

Mi unicornio azul ayer se me perdió
y puede parecer acaso una obsesión
pero no tengo mas que un unicornio azul
y aunque tuviera dos, yo solo quiero aquel
cualquier información la pagaré
mi unicornio azul, se me ha perdido ayer, se fue.

Soy Pan, Soy Paz, Soy Más

Yo so-o-oy, yo so-o-oy, yo so-o-oy
soy agua, playa, cielo, casa, planta,
soy mar, Atlántico, viento y América,
soy un montón de cosas santas
mezcladas con cosas humanas
como te explico . . . cosas mundanas.
Fui niño, cuna , teta, techo, manta,
más miedo, cuco, grito, llanto, raza,
después mezclaron las palabras
o se escapaban las miradas
algo pasó . . . no entendí nada.
Vamos, decime, contame
todo lo que a vos te está pasando ahora,
porque sino cuando está el alma sóla llora
hay que sacarlo todo afuera, como la primavera
nadie quiere que adentro algo se muera
hablar mirándose a los ojos
sacar lo que se puede afuera
para que adentro nazcan cosas nuevas.
Soy, pan, soy paz, sos más, soy el que está por acá
no quiero más de lo que me puedas dar, uuuuuuh
hoy se te da, hoy se te quita,
igual que con la margarita . . . igual al mar,
igual la vida, la vida, la vida, la vida . . .
Vamos, decime, contame
todo lo que a vos te está pasando ahora,
porque sino cuando está el alma sóla llora
hay que sacarlo todo afuera, como la primavera
nadie quiere que adentro algo se muera
hablar mirándose a los ojos
sacar lo que se puede afuera
para que adentro nazcan cosas nuevas. (BIS)
cosas nuevas, nuevas, nuevas . . . nuevas

Al Jardín de la República

Desde el norte traigo en el alma

la alegre zamba que canto aquí,

y que bailan los tucumanos

con entusiasmo propio de allí, 

cada cual sigue a su pareja,

joven o vieja, de todo vi.

Media vuelta y la compañera

forma una rueda para seguir,

viene el gaucho, le hace un floreo

y un zapateo comienza allí,

sigue el gaucho con su floreo

y el zapateo termina allí.

Pa' las del norte si,

para las otras no,

para las Tucumanas,

mujer galana, naranjo en flor 

todo lo que ellas quieran

que la primera ya terminó.

No me olvido, viera, compadre,

de aquellos bailes que hacen allí

tucumanos y tucumanas,

todos se afanan por divertir

y hacer linda esta triste vida,

así se olvida que hay que morir.

Empanadas y vino en jarra,

una guitarra, bombo y violín,

y unas cuantas mozas bizarras

pa' que la farra pueda seguir,

sin que falten esos coleros,

viejos cuenteros, pa' que hagan reír.

Para las otras no,

pa' las del norte si,

para las de Simoca,

mis ansias locas de estar allí

para brindarles mi alma

en esta zamba que canto aquí.

A Víctor

No puede borrarse el canto

con sangre del buen cantor

después que ha silbado el aire

los tonos de su canción.

Los pájaros llevan notas

a casa del trovador;

tendrán que matar el viento

que dice lucha y amor.

Tendrán que callar el río,

tendrán que secar el mar

que inspiran y dan al hombre

motivos para cantar.

No puede borrarse el canto

con sangre del buen cantor,

tendrán que matar el viento

que dice lucha y amor.

Tendrán que callar el río,

tendrán que secar el mar

que inspiran y dan al hombre

motivos para cantar.

Tendrán que parar la lluvia,

tendrán que apagar el sol,

tendrán que matar el canto

para que olviden tu voz.

Canción de las Simples Cosas

Uno se despide insensiblemente de pequeñas cosas,
Lo mismo que un árbol
En tiempos de otoño se quedan sin hojas.
Al fin la tristeza es la muerte lenta de las simples cosas,
Esas cosas simples que quedan doliendo en el corazón.

Uno vuelve siempre
A los viejos sitios en que amó la vida,
Y entonces comprende
Como están de ausentes las cosas queridas.
Por eso muchacho no partas ahora soñando el regreso,
Que el amor es simple
Y a las cosas simples las devora el tiempo.

Demorate aquí, en la luz mayor de este mediodía,
Donde encontrarás con el pan al sol la mesa tendida.
Por eso muchacho no partas
Ahora soñando el regreso,
Que el amor es simple
Y a las cosas simples las devora el tiempo

Si se calla el cantor

Si se calla el cantor calla la vida
porque la vida, la vida misma es todo un canto
si se calla el cantor, muere de espanto
la esperanza, la luz y la alegría.

Si se calla el cantor se quedan solos
los humildes gorriones de los diarios,
los obreros del puerto se persignan
quién habrá de luchar por su salario.

HABLADO
'Que ha de ser de la vida si el que canta
no levanta su voz en las tribunas
por el que sufre,´por el que no hay
ninguna razón que lo condene a andar sin manta'

Si se calla el cantor muere la rosa
de que sirve la rosa sin el canto
debe el canto ser luz sobre los campos
iluminando siempre a los de abajo.

Que no calle el cantor porque el silencio
cobarde apaña la maldad que oprime,
no saben los cantores de agachadas
no callarán jamás de frente al crimén.

HABLADO
'Que se levanten todas las banderas
cuando el cantor se plante con su grito
que mil guitarras desangren en la noche
una inmortal canción al infinito'.

Si se calla el cantor . . . calla la vida.

Duerme negrito

Duerme, duerme, negrito
Que tu mama está en el campo, negrito
Duerme, duerme, mobila
Que tu mama está en el campo, mobila

Te va traer codornices
Para ti.
Te va a traer rica fruta
Para ti
Te va a traer carne de cerdo
Para ti.
Te va a traer muchas cosas
Para ti.

Y si el negro no se duerme
Viene el diablo blanco
Y zas le come la patita
Chacapumba, chacapumba, apumba, chacapumba.
Duerme, duerme, negrito
Que tu mama está en el campo,
Negrito

Trabajando
Trabajando duramente, (Trabajando sí)
Trabajando e va de luto, (Trabajando sí)
Trabajando e no le pagan, (Trabajando sí)
Trabajando e va tosiendo, (Trabajando sí)

Para el negrito, chiquitito
Para el negrito si
Trabajando sí, Trabajando sí
Duerme, duerme, negrito
Que tu mama está en el campo
Negrito, negrito, negrito.

Campanitas

En un pueblito de salta
La gente de baile está.
Con chicha y patas de cabra,
Hasta el alba bailará;
Mientras que de un pobre mozo,
Cantando esta humilde zamba va.

Se casa la niña linda,
De la estancia el gavilán,
Con un pueblero muy rico,
Que vino del tucumán;
Mientras que de un pobre mozo,
Cantando esta humilde zamba va.

Al ver su prenda perdida,
Montó en su flete alazán.
Ató la guitarra a los tientos,
Para no volver jamás.
Mientras que se iba alejando,
Cantando esta humilde zamba va.

Campanitas de mi pueblo,
Que están tocando; tocando están.

El Arriero Va

En las arenas bailan los remolinos,
el sol juega en el brillo del pedregal,
y, prendido en la magia de los caminos,
el arriero va, el arriero va.

Es bandera de niebla su poncho al viento,
lo saludan las flautas del pajonal,
y, guapeando en la senda por esos cerros,
el arriero va, el arriero va.

Las penas y las vaquitas
se van por la misma senda,
las penas y las vaquitas
se van por la misma senda.

Las penas son de nosotros,
las vaquitas son ajenas,
las penas son de nosotros,
las vaquitas son ajenas.

Un degüello de soles muestra la tarde,
se han dormido las luces del pedregal,
y, animando la tropa dale que dale,
el arriero va, el arriero va.
Amalaya la noche traiga recuerdos
que hagan menos pesada la soledad,
como sombra en la sombra por esos cerros
el arriero va, el arriero va.

Las penas y las vaquitas...

Love is in the air

Love is in the air

Everywhere I look around

Love is in the air

Every sight and every sound

And I don't know if I'm being foolish

Don't know if I'm being wise

But it's something that I must believe in

And it's there when I look in your eyes

Love is in the air

In the whisper of the trees

Love is in the air

In the thunder of the sea

And I don't know if I'm just dreaming

Don't know if I feel sane

But it's something that I must believe in

And it's there when you call out my name

(Chorus)

Love is in the air

Love is in the air

Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh

Love is in the air

In the rising of the sun

Love is in the air

When the day is nearly done

And I don't know if you're an illusion

Don't know if I see it true

But you're something that I must believe in

And you're there when I reach out for you

Love is in the air

Every sight and every sound

And I don't know if I'm being foolish

Don't know if I'm being wise

But it's something that I must believe in

And it's there when I look in your eyes

(Repeat Chorus 4X)

I'm on my way

Oh I'm on my way I know I am,

somewhere not so far from here

All I know is all I feel right now,

I feel the power growing in my hair

Sitting on my own not by myself,

everybody's here with me

I don't need to touch your face lo know,

and I don't need to use my eyes to see

I keep on wondering if I sleep too long,

will I always wake up the same (or so)?

I keep on wondering if I sleep to long,

will I even wake up the same or something

Oh I'm on my way I know I am,

but times there were when thought not

Bleeding half my soul in bad company,

I thank the moon I had the strength to stop

I'm not making love to anyone's wishes,

only for that light I see

'Cause when I'm dead and lowered low in my grave,

that's gonna be the only thing that's left of me

And if I make it to the waterside,

will I even find me a boat (or so)?

And I if I make it lo the waterside,

I'll be sure to write you note or something

Oh I'm on my way I know I am,

somewhere not so far from here

All I know is all I feel right now,

I feel the power growing In my hair

Oh life is like a maze of doors

and they all open from the side you're on

Just keep on pushing hard boy, try as you may

You're going to wind up where you started from

You're going to wind up where you started from

Sad Lisa

She hangs her head and cries on my shirt.
She must be hurt very badly.
Tell me what's making you sad, Li?
Open your door - don't hide in the dark.
You're lost in the dark - you can trust me.
'Cause you know that's how it must be.

Lisa - Lisa, sad Lisa - Lisa.

Her eyes like windows trickle in rain
Upon the pain getting deeper.
Though my love wants to relieve her.
She walks alone from wall to wall.
Lost in her hall, she can't hear me.
Though I know she likes to be near me.

Lisa - Lisa, sad Lisa - Lisa.

She sits in a corner by the door.
There must be more I can tell her.
If she really wants me to help her.
I'll do what I can to show her the way.
And maybe one day I will free her.
Though I know no one can see her.

Lisa - Lisa, sad Lisa - Lisa.

Oh! very young

Oh very young
What will you leave us this time?
You're only dancing on this earth for a short while
And though your dreams may toss and turn you now
They will vanish away like your daddy's best jeans
Denim Blue fading up to the sky
And though you want him to last forever
You know he never will
(You know he never will)
And the patches make the goodbye harder still

Oh, very young
What will you leave us this time?
There'll never be a better chance to change your mind
And if you want this world to see a better day
Will you carry the words of love with you?
Will you ride the great white bird into heaven?
And though you want to last forever
You know you never will
(You know you never will )
And the goodbye makes the journey harder still

Oh, very young
What will you leave us this time?
You're only dancing on this earth for a short while
Oh, very young
What will you leave us this time?

Don't be shy

Don't be shy just let your feelings roll on by
Don't wear fear or nobody will know you're there
Just lift your head, and let your feelings out instead
And don't be shy, just let your feeling roll on by
On by

You know love is better than a song
Love is where all of us belong
So don't be shy just let your feelings roll on by
Don't wear fear or nobody will know you're there
You're there

Don't be shy just let your feelings roll on by
Don't wear fear or nobody will know you're there
Just lift your head, and let your feelings out instead
And don't be shy, just let your feeling roll on by

Wher do the children play

Well, I think it's fine
Buildin' jumbo planes
Or takin' a ride
On a cosmic train.
Switch on Summer
From a slot machine.
Yes, get what you want to, if you want,
'Cause you can get anything.

I know we've come a long way.
We're changin' day to day,
But tell me, where do the children play?

Well, you roll on roads
Over fresh green grass
For your lorry loads
Pumpin' petrol gas
And you make them long
And you make them tough,
But they just go on and on, and it seems
That you can't get off.

Oh, I know we've come a long way.
We're changin' day to day,
But tell me, where do the children play?

Well, you've cracked the sky.
'Scrapers fill the air,
But will you keep on buildin' higher
'Til there's no more room up there?
Will you make us laugh?
Will you make us cry?
Will you tell us when to live?
Will you tell us when to die?

I know we've come a long way.
We're changin' day to day,
But tell me, where do the children play?
Do, do, do, do, do.
Do, do, do, do, do.
Do, do, do, do, do.
Do, do, do, do, do.

Moonshadow

 

 

Oh, I'm bein' followed by a moonshadow,
Moonshadow, moonshadow
Leapin and hoppin' on a moonshadow,
Moonshadow, moonshadow.

And if I ever lose my hands, lose my plough, lose my land,
Oh if I ever lose my hands, Oh if....
I won't have to work nomore.
And if I ever lose my eyes, if my colours all run dry,
Yes if I ever lose my eyes, Oh if....
I won't have to cry nomore.

Oh, I'm bein' followed by a moonshadow,
Moonshadow, moonshadow .
Leapin and hoppin' on a moonshadow,
Moonshadow, moonshadow.

And if I ever lose my legs, I won't moan, and I won't beg,
Oh if I ever lose my legs, Oh if....
I won't have to walk nomore.
And if I ever lose my mouth, all my teeth, north and south,
Yes if I ever lose my mouth, Oh if....
I won't have to talk...

Did it take long to find me?
I asked the faithful light.
Did it take long to find me?
And are you gonna stay the night?

Oh, I'm bein' followed by a moonshadow,
Moonshadow, moonshadow .
Leapin and hoppin' on a moonshadow,
Moonshadow, moonshadow.

Moonshadow, moonshadow.

Wild Word

Now that I've lost everything to you

You say you wanna start something new

And it's breakin' my heart you're leavin'

Baby, I'm greavin'

But if you wanna leave, take good care

I hope you have a lot of nice things to wear

But then a lot of nice things turn bad out there

Chorus:

Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world

It's hard to get by just upon a smile

Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world

I'll always remember you like a child, girl

You know I've seen a lot of what the world can do

And it's breaking my heart in two

Because I never wanna see you a sad girl

Don't be a bad girl

But if you wanna leave, take good care

I hope you make a lot of nice friends out there

But just remember there's a lot of bad and beware

Chorus

Baby, I love you

But if you wanna leave, take good care

I hope you make a lot of nice friends out there

But just remember there's a lot of bad and beware

Chorus

Old Train

Old Train, I can hear your whistle blow

And I want to be jumping on again

Old Train, I've been everywhere you go

And I know what lies beyond each bend

Old Train, each time you pass

Youre older than the last

And it seems Im too old for running

I hear your rusty wheels grate against the rails

They cry with every mile

And I think Ill stay awhile

Old Train, I grow weary at the miles

And I miss the freedom that was mine

Old Train, just to think about those times

Ill smile when youre highballing by

Old Train, each time you pass

Youre older than the last

And It seems Im too old for running

I hear your rusty wheels grate against the rails

They cry with every mile

And I think Ill stay awhile

This old guitar

This old guitar taught me to sing a love song

It showed me how to laugh and how to cry

It introduced me to some friends of mine

And brightened up some days

It helped me make it through some lonely nights

Oh, what a friend to have on a cold and lonely night

This old guitar gave me my lovely lady

It opened up her eyes and ears to me

It brought us close together

I guess it broke her heart

It opened up the space for us to be

What a lovely place and a lovely space to be

This old guitar gave me my life my living

All the things you know I love to do

To serenade the stars that shine

From a sunny mountainside

Most of all to sing my songs for you

I love to sing my songs for you

Yes, I do, you know

I love to sing my songs for you

How can I leave you Again

Di di di di di la la la la la la

In a spaceship over the mountains

Chasing rainbows in the setting sun

Leaving heart and home for the city of angels

I feel my life is undone

There are pathways winding below me

In pleasure Ive gone where they go

In the quiet stillness I can hear symphonies

The loveliest music I know

How can I leave you again

I must be clear out of my mind

Lost in a storm Ive gone blind

Oh, how can I leave you again

Oh, its been a long time since Ive listened

Still longer since Ive walked with you

For the first time I know what Im missing

Some answers are no longer true

So I question the course that I follow

Im doubtful and deep in despair

My heart is full of impossible notions

Can it be you no longer care?

Still, I ride on the wings of a high wind

Blowing steady and strong behind me

As the clouds surrender my fate is for certain

I'm a sailor who runs to the sea

How can I leave you again

I must be clear out of my mind

Lost in a storm Ive gone blind

Oh, how can I leave you again

How can I leave you again

I must be clear out of my mind

Lost in a storm Ive gone blind

Oh, how can I leave you again

Thank God I'm a Country Boy

Well life on the farm is kinda laid back
Ain't much an old country boy like me can't hack
It's early to rise and early in the sack
Thank God I'm a country boy

Well a simple kind of life never did me no harm
Raisin' me a family and workin' on the farm
My days are all filled with an easy country charm
Thank God I'm a country boy

Chorus: Well, I got me a fine wife, I got my old fiddle
When the sun's comin' up I got cakes on the griddle
Life ain't nothin' but a funny, funny riddle
Thank God I'm a country boy

When the work's all done and the sun is settin' low
I pull out my fiddle and I rosin up the bow
But the kids are asleep so I keep it kinda low
Thank God I'm a country boy

I'd play "Sally Goodin" all day if I could
But the Lord and my wife wouldn't take it very good
So I fiddle when I can and I work when I should
Thank God I'm a country boy

Chorus

Well I wouldn't trade my life for diamonds or jewels
I never was one of them money hungry fools
I'd rather have my fiddle and my farmin' tools
Thank God I'm a country boy

Yeah, city folks drivin' in a black limousine
A lotta sad people think that's mighty keen
Well folks, let me tell you exactly what I mean
Thank God I'm a country boy

Chorus

Well my fiddle was my daddy's 'til the day he died
And he took me by the hand and held me close to his side
He said, "Live a good life, play my fiddle with pride
And thank God you're a country boy"

My daddy taught me young how to hunt and how to whittle
He taught me how to work and play a tune on the fiddle
He taught me how to love and how to give just a little
Thank God I'm a country boy

Chorus

A Song for All Lovers

I see them dancing somewhere in the moonlight
Somewhere in Alaska, somewhere in the sun
I hear them singing a song for all lovers
A song for the two hearts beating only as one

Imagine the morning no longer alone
The arms of another, a place to belong
No longer the struggle, no longer the night
And ever becoming in the quickening light

To see the darkness, to listen within
To answer in kindness, to ever begin
To ever be gentle, to always be strong
To walk in the wonder, to live in the song

In a place of enchantment where the wild things are known
Will the future remember when the lovers are gone?

And I see them dancing somewhere in the moonlight
Somewhere in Alaska, somewhere in the sun
I hear them singing a song for all lovers
A song for the two hearts beating only as one
A song for the two hearts beating only as one

Gospel Changes

The Prodigal Son, he'd been away a while
he was working his way back home now
over many a ragged mile
When he finally crossed the river
and his father saw him near
there was a joyful sound, for all the world to hear

I listened to what the Good Book said
and it made good sense to me
talkin' about reapin' what you're sowin'
people trying to be free.
Now we've got new names and faces, this time around
Gospel changes, Lord, Still goin' down.

Jesus, He did not doubt His gifts
though He knew that He had not long to live
He took care of the bus'ness
of teaching us how to fly
then He bowed His head and laid down to die

I listened to what the Good Book said
and it made good sense to me
talkin' about reapin' what you're sowin'
people trying to be free.
Now we've got new names and faces, this time around
Gospel changes, Lord, Still goin' down.

Jerusalem I see you standing high
but if you lose your salvation
there'll be no tears left to cry
Now some men worship a Golden Calf
while others are bought and sold
and if we live like that brother we pay the toll

I listened to what the Good Book said
and it made good sense to me
talkin' about reapin' what you're sowin'
people trying to be free.
Now we've got new names and faces, this time around
Gospel changes, Lord, Still goin' down.
Gospel changes, Lord, Still goin' down,
Still Goin' Down
Gospel changes, Lord, Still goin' down.

My sweet lady

Lady, are you crying, do the tears belong to me
Did you think our time together was all gone
Lady, you've been dreaming, I'm as close as I can be
And I swear to you our time has just begun

Close your eyes and rest your weary mind
I promise I will stay right here beside you
Today our lives were joined, became entwined
I wish that you could know how much I love you

Lady, are you happy, do you feel the way I do
Are there meanings that you've never seen before
Lady, my sweet lady, I just can't believe it's true
And it's like I've never, ever loved before

(Chorus)

Lady, are you crying, do the tears belong to me
Did you think our time together was all gone
Lady, my sweet lady, I'm as close as I can be
And I swear to you our time has just begun

Rocky Mountain High

He was born in the summer of his 27th year,
coming home to a place he'd never been before.
He left yesterday behind him
you might say he was born again,
might say he found a key for every door.
When he first came to the mountains
His life was far away
on the road and hanging by a song.
But the strings already broken
and he doesn't really care,
it keeps changin' fast, and it don't last for long.
It's a Colorado Rocky Mountain High,
I've seen it raining fire in the sky
The shadows from the starlight are softer than a lullabye.
Rocky Mountain High, ...in Colorado....
Rocky Mountain High.

He climbed cathedral mountains, he saw silver clouds below,
saw everything as far as you can see.
And they say that he got crazy once and that he
tried to touch the sun,
and he lost a friend, but kept the memory.
Now he walks in quiet solitude, the forest and the stream,
seeking grace in every step he takes,
his sight is turned inside himself, to try and
understand, the serenity of a clear blue mountain lake.

And the Colorado Rocky Mountain High,
I've seen it raining fire in the sky
You can talk to God and listen to the casual reply.
Rocky Mountain High, ....in Colorado....
Rocky Mountain High.

Now his life is full of wonder,
but his heart still knows some fear,
of the simple things he can not comprehend.
Why they try to tear the mountains down
to bring in a couple more.
More people, more scars upon the land.

It's the Colorado Rocky Mountain High,
I've seen it raining fire in the sky
I know he'd be a poorer man if he never saw an Eagle fly
Rocky mountain high
It's the Colorado Rocky Mountain High,
I've seen it raining fire in the sky.
Friend around the camp fire and everybody's high....
Rocky Mountain High, Rocky Mountain High,
Rocky Mountain High,
Rocky Mountain High.

Leaving in a jet plane

All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go.
I'm standing here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say Goodbye

But the dawn is breaking it's early morn
The taxi's waiting he's blowin' his horn
Already I'm so lonesome I could die

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
'cause I'm leaving on a Jet Plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe I hate to go

There's so many times I've let you down
So many times I've played around
I tell you now they don't mean a thing

Everyplace I go I'll think of you
Every song I sing I'll sing for you
When I come back I'll wear your wedding ring

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
'cause I'm leaving on a Jet Plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe I hate to go

Well the time has come to leave you
One more time let me kiss you
Then close your eyes and I'll be on my way

Dream about the days to come
When I won't have to leave you alone
About the times I won't have to say Goodbye

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
'cause I'm leaving on a Jet Plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe I hate to go

Don't Close your eyes tonight

There's a tenderness that I feel
Very real you see
I can feel your body stir, so deep within
Let it be an act of love tonight completely
Let me ask of you one thing

Don't close your eyes tonight
Just look at me see how many times I've cried for you
Don't close your eyes tonight Let it be me, not just a fantasy
Let it be me tonight

You can lie so close to someone
And still feel all alone
Though I've herad you say
You love me so many times When you give me love
So beautiful and tender
Someone else is in your mind

Don't close your eyes tonight
Just look at me see how many times I've cried for you
Don't close your eyes tonight Let it be me, not just a fantasy
Let it be me tonight

Sorry if I cry feelings run so deep
Many is the time when I wake up an find
I've been crying in my sleep
Look me in the eye
Tell me what you see
I'm the one who loves you
I'm the one who needs you
Make this one for me

Don't close your eyes tonight
Just look at me see how many times I've cried for you
Don't close your eyes tonight Let it be me, not just a fantasy
Let it be me tonight

Don't close your eyes tonight
Just look at me see how many times I've cried for you
Don't close your eyes tonight Let it be me, not just a fantasy
Let it be me tonight

Country Roads

Take Me Home, Country Roads

Almost heaven, West Virginia,
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River,
Life is old there, older than the trees,
Younger than the mountains, growing like a breeze

Country Roads, take me home
To the place I belong,
West Virginia,
Mountain Momma, take me home
Country roads

All my memories, gather round her
Miner's lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye

Country Roads, take me home
To the place I belong,
West Virginia,
Mountain Momma, take me home
To the country roads

I hear her voice in the morning hour she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
And driving down the road I get a feeling
That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday

Country Roads, take me home
To the place I belong,
West Virginia,
Mountain Momma, take me home
Country roads

Country Roads, take me home
To the place I belong,
West Virginia,
Mountain Momma, take me home
To the country roads

Take me home, now country road
Take me home, now country road

Sunshine on my shoulders

Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy
Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry
Sunshine on the water looks so lovely
Sunshine almost always makes me high

If I had a day that I could give you
I'd give to you a day just like today
If I had a song that I could sing for you
I'd sing a song to make you feel this way

Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy
Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry
Sunshine on the water looks so lovely
Sunshine almost always makes me high

If I had a tale that I could tell you
I'd tell a tale sure to make you smile
If I had a wish that I could wish for you
I'd make a wish for sunshine all the while

Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy
Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry
Sunshine on the water looks so lovely
Sunshine almost always makes me high

Sunshine almost all the times makes me high
Sunshine almost always...
