La Balada Del Pianista

Las manos viejas sobre el piano de un pianista
están pidiendo de nostalgia el cabaret
con la mirada avergonzada del artista
le pega con rabia a un teclado que no ve.

Las manos viejas sobre el piano de un pianista
están tratando de cubrir la situación
y mientras cantan en la barra los bromistas
el ahoga su pena con un trago de licor.

Ya pasaron los días de la ambición
ya no hay fantasías en su ilusión
pues detrás de la gloria, igual que yo
se repite la historia, sólo cambia el actor.

Las manos viejas sobre el piano de un pianista
son fiel reflejo de un destino que formó
con el pretexto de su suerte egoista
el vivió sólo en sueños y su vida gastó.

Ya pasaron los días de la ambición
ya no hay fantasías en su ilusión
pues detrás de la gloria, igual que yo
se repite la historia, sólo cambia el actor.

Lady Madonna

Lady Madonna, children at your feet
Wonder how you manage to make ends meet
Who find the money when you pay the rent
Did you think that money was heaven sent

Friday night arrives without a suitcase
Sunday morning creeping like a nun
Monday's child has learned to tie his bootlegs
See how they run

Lady Madonna, baby at your breast
Wonders how you manage to feed the rest
Pa pa pa pa...
See how they run

Lady Madonna lying on the bed
Listen to the music playing in your head

Tuesday afternoon is never ending
Wednesday morning papers didn't come
Thursday night you stocking needed mending
See how they run

Lady Madonna, children at your feet
Wonder how you manage to make ends meet

Las Posadas

En nombre del cielo
Os pido posada
Pues no puede andar
Mi esposa amada
Aquí no es mesón
Sigan adelante
Yo no puedo abrir
No sea algun tunante

No seas inhumano
Tennos caridad
Que el dios de los cielos
Te lo premiara

Ya se pueden ir
Y no molestar
Porque si me enfado
Los voy a apalear

Mi esposa es maría
Es reina del cielo
Y madre va a ser
Del divino verbo

¿eres tu jose?
Tu esposa es maría?
Entren, peregrinos
No los conocía

Let’s Find Each Other Tonight

Let's find each other tonight, everything will be all right
Don't hesitate now, let's find each other tonight.
If you need some company, mama take a chance on me
Don't hesitate now, let's find each other tonight.

You don't wanna be like those other dreamers
That dream about lovin' and never love.
You wanna be a screamer, so honey I'm open and honey I'm hopin'
That if you need some company, mama take a chance on me
Don't hesitate now, let's find each other tonight, ahhhh hey.

Malagueña

Que bonitos ojos tienes
Debajo de esas dos cejas
Debajo de esas dos cejas
Que bonitos ojos tienes.

Ellos me quieren mirar
Pero si tu no los dejas
Pero si tu no los dejas
Ni siquiera parpadear.

Malaguena salerosa
Besar tus labios quisiera
Besar tus labios quisiera.
Malaguena salerosa
Y decirte nina hermosa.

Que eres lin........da y hechicera,
Que eres linda y hechicera
Como el candor de una rosa.

Si por pobre me desprecias
Yo te concedo razon
Yo te concedo razon
Si por pobre me desprecias.

Yo no te ofrezco riquezas
Te ofrezco mi corazon
Te ofrezco mi corazon
A cambio de mi pobreza.

Malaguena salerosa
Besar tus labios quisiera
Besar tus labios quisiera.
Malaguena salerosa
Y decirte nina hermosa.

No Hay Sombra Que Me Cubra

No hay sombra que me cubra
Y el fuego que me alumbra
Tu lo encendiste por siempre
Yo aprendí a querer

Mi alma despertaste
Mil dudas tu borraste
Con tu forma de amar
Que pude entender

Si alguna vez
Me dejaras de querer
Sabrás que yo me culpare

Y un nuevo amor
Tan solo traerá dolor
Sabras que a nadie más
Yo amare

Si alguna vez
Me dejaras de querer
Sabrás que yo me culpare

Y un nuevo amor
Tan solo traerá dolor
Sabrás que a nadie más
Yo amare

No hay sombra que me cubra
Y el fuego que me alumbra
Tu lo encendiste por siempre
Yo aprendí a querer

Oye mira
Si tu me alumbras el camino
Con tu amor encontré mi destino
Yo soy muy feliz con tu amor, con tu amor, con tu amor

Oye mira
Por ti volví a la vida
Y por ti yo cure mis heridas
Renació mi ilusión, por tu amor, con tu amor

Sin ti yo no puedo vivir
Porque tu me has hecho reír
Tu me has hecho feliz
Con tu amor, con tu amor, con tu amor

No hay sombra que me cubra
Y el fuego que me alumbra
Tu lo encendiste por siempre
Yo aprendí a querer a querer

One Night

I ain't got no money, but I sure got style
And if you got the time, girl, I'll show you how to smile
Come on make your mind up, ooh baby take a chance
Before this night is over, I'll show you how to dance, yeah

You like the danger, it's in your eyes, I can see it there
Throw your dance with a stranger, kiss him goodbye, yeah, bye bye
Baby

One night ain't no love affair, but I won't ask no more from you
One night with you anywhere, heaven knows what we can do

So sophisticated, I like the way you dress
The way you move your body, ooh, baby I'm obsessed
I don't want no lifetime, I just want tonight
Come on, take a chance, girl, I know you know it's right, yeah

I've got this feeling, it's feelin' so strong, when I first saw you
You've got me reelin', don't prove me wrong, oh come on, baby

Yeah, you like the danger, it's in your eyes, I can see it, baby
You took a chance with a stranger, kiss him goodbye, bye bye baby

Para Decir Adiós

Ven siéntate a mi lado, hablemos un momento
tengo algo que decirte que tu debes saber
es cierto que te amaba, no me arrepiento,
pero el amor escapa y ya no ha de volver.

No quiero que te afanes pensando que talvez
tu logres que me quede a tu lado
prefiero no mentirte, ya nada puedo hacer
te juro que en verdad ya lo he pensado.

Para decir adiós vida mía
y te estaré por siempre agradecido
me acordaré de ti algún día
para decir adiós solo tienes que decirlo.

Comprendo por mi parte, tu triste decisión
y aunque el corazón lo tengo herido.
Si no puedo tenerte, entonces pues adiós
no podemos fingir, cuando el amor se ha ido.

No quiero que te afanes, pensando que talvez
yo en ti logre que me quede a tu lado.
Guardemos el recuerdo de la primera vez
del amor que ambos hemos dado.

Para decir adiós vida mía
y te estaré por siempre agradecido
me acordaré de ti algún día
para decir adiós solo tienes que decirlo.

Play Me

She was morning and I was night time.
I one day woke up to find her lyin' beside my bed.
I softly said, "Come take me."
For I've been lonely, in need of someone
As though I'd done someone wrong somewhere, but I don't know where.
I don't know where, come lately
You are the sun, I am the moon,
You are the words, I am the tune, play me.

Song, she sang to me, song she brang to me,
Words that rang in me, rhyme that sprang from me warmed the night.
And what was right became me.
You are the sun, I am the moon,
You are the words, I am the tune, play me.

She was morning and I was night time.
I one day woke up to find her lyin' beside my bed.
I softly said, "Come take me."
So it was that I came to travel,
Upon a road that was thorned and narrow, another place,
Another grace would save me.
You are the sun, I am the moon,
You are the words, I am the tune, play me.

You are the sun, I am the moon,
You are the words, I am the tune, play me.

Rain

Listen to the pouring rain
Listen to it pour,
And with every drop of rain
You know I love you more

Let it rain all night long,
Let my love for you go strong,
As long as we're together
Who cares about the weather?

Listen to the falling rain,
Listen to it fall,
And with every drop of rain,
I can hear you call,
Call my name right out loud,
I can here above the clouds
And I'm here among the puddles,
You and I together huddle.

Listen to the falling rain,
Listen to it fall.

It's raining,
It's pouring,
The old man is snoring,
Went to bed
And bumped his head,
He couldn't get up in the morning,

Listen to the falling rain,
Listen to the rain.

Romance in the Night

Romance in the night, making things all right
With it's burning light for lovers, romance in the night.

I can hear your sighs, the glow is in your eyes
You've got me mesmerized and feelin' right
For romance in the night.

Oh let my heart fill with joy,
You make me feel like a boy.

Romance in the night, making things all right
With it's burning light for lovers, romance in the night.

Oh let my heart fill with joy,
You make me feel like a boy.

Romance in the night, making things all right
With it's burning light for lovers, romance in the night
With it's burning light for lovers.. romance in the night.

She's a Woman

My love don't give me presents
I know that she's no peasant
Only ever has to give me
Love forever and forever
My love don't give me presents

Turn me on when I get lonely
People tell me that she's only fooling
I know she isn't

She don't give boys the eye
She hates to see me cry
She is happy just to hear me
Say that I will never leave her
She don't give boys the eye

She will never make me jealous
Gives me all her time as well as loving
Don't ask me why

She's a woman who understands
She's a woman who loves her man

My love don't give me presents
I know that she's no peasant
Only ever has to give me
Love forever and forever
My love don't give me presents

Turn me on when I get lonely
People tell me that she's only fooling
I know she isn't
Woo oo oo, woo

She's a woman who understands
She's a woman who loves her man

She don't give boys the eye
She hates to see me cry
She is happy just to hear me
Say that I will never leave her
She don't give boys the eye

She will never make me jealous
Gives me all her time as well as loving
Don't ask me why

She's a woman, she's a woman
She's a woman, she's a woman
She's a woman.

The Cherry Tree Carol

When Joseph
Was an old man
An old man was he
He married Virgin Mary
The Queen of Galilee
He married Virgin Mary
The Queen of Galilee

Joseph and Mary
Walked through
An orchard green
There were cherries
And berries
As thick
As might be seen
There were cherries
And berries
As thick
As might be seen

Mary said to Joseph
So meek and so mild
Joseph
Gather me some cherries
For I am with child
Joseph
Gather me some cherries
For I am with child

Then Joseph flew in anger
In anger flew he
Let the father of the baby
Gather cherries for thee
Let the father of the baby
Gather cherries for thee

Then up spoke baby Jesus
From in Mary's womb
Bend down
The tallest branches
That my mother
Might have some
Bend down
The tallest branches
That my mother
Might have some

And bend down
The tallest branches
It touched Mary's hand
Cried she
Oh, look thou Joseph
I have cherries by command
Oh, look thou Joseph
I have cherries by command

The First Noel

The First Noel
The angels did say
Was to certain
Poor shepherds
In fields as they lay
In fields where they may
Keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night
That was so deep
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born
Is the King of Israel

They looked up
And saw a star
Shining in the East
Beyond them far
And to the Earth
It gave great light
And so it continued
Both day and night
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born
Is the King of Israel

Then entered
In those Wise men three
Full reverently
Upon their knee
And offered there
In His presence
Their gold and myrrh
And frankincense
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born
Is the King of Israel
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born
Is the King of Israel

The Little Drummer Boy

The Windmills of Your Mind

Round like a circle in a spiral
Like a wheel within a wheel
Never ending on beginning
On an ever-spinning reel
Like a snowball down a mountain
Or a carnival balloon

Like a carousel that's turning
Running rings around the moon
Like a clock whose hands
Are sweeping
Past the minutes on its face
And the world is like an apple
Whirling silently in space
Like the circles that you find
In the windmills of your mind

Like a tunnel that you follow
To a tunnel of its own
Down a hollow to a cavern
Where the sun has never shone
Like a door that keeps revolving
In a half-forgotten dream
Or the ripples from a pebble

Someone tosses in a stream
Like a clock whose hands
Are sweeping
Past the minutes on its face
And the world is like an apple
Whirling silently in space
Like the circles that you find
In the windmills of your mind
Keys that jingle in your pocket
Words that jangle in your head
Why did summer go so quickly?
Was it something that I said?

Lovers walk along a shore
And leave
Their footprints in the sand
Was the sound
Of distant drumming
Just the fingers of your hand?

Pictures hanging in a hallway
Or the fragment of a song
Half-remembered names and faces
But to whom do they belong?
When you knew that it was over
Were you suddenly aware
That the autumn leaves
Were turning
To the color of her hair?

Like a circle in a spiral
Like a wheel within a wheel
Never ending or beginning
On an ever-spinning reel
As the images unwind
Like the circles that you find
In the windmills of your mind

Todo El Mundo Te Ama

La muchedumbre vino a demostrar su admiración por ti
Las emociones que tu canto provocó las compartí
La gente se brindó con gran fervor, y más que eso
Te entregó su amor.

Todo el mundo te ama
Todo el mundo te ama
Todo el mundo te ama
Pero un solo corazón te llora.
Soy yo.

Sentí mi soledad en medio de este idilio que nació
Fue claro para mí, por fin la multitud me desplazó
La fama te envolvió y comprendí
Que nadie nunca más te hará feliz.

Alguna vez tus besos fueron solo para mí
Que iluminaron el camino que por ti seguí
Hoy tu canción se coloreó de gris
Parece que te quieren más así, así.

Tu Recuerdo Y Yo

Estoy en el rincón de una cantina
Oyendo una canción que yo pedí,
Me están sirviendo ahorita mi tequila
Ya va mi pensamiento rumbo a ti.

Yo sé que tu recuerdo es
Mi desgracia, y vengo aquí nomás a recordar,
Que amarga son las cosas que nos pasan
Con hay una mujer que paga mal.

Quien no sabe en esta vida la traición
Tan conocida que nos deja
Un mal amor.

Quien no llega a la cantina
Exigiendo su tequila y exigiendo
Su canción, me están sirviendo ya la
Del estribo ahorita ya no se si tengo fe.

Ahorita solamente
Yo les pido que toquen
Otra vez la que se fue.

Quien no sabe en esta vida la traición
Tan conocida que nos deja
Un mal amor.

Quien no llega a la cantina
Exigiendo su tequila y exigiendo
Su canción, me están sirviendo ya la
Del estribo ahorita ya no se si tengo fe.

Ahorita solamente
Yo les pido que toquen
Otra vez la que se fue

Tu Y Las Nubes

Ando volando bajo
Mi amor esta por lo suelos
Y tú tan alto, tan alto
Mirando mis desconsuelos
Sabiendo que soy un hombre
Que está muy lejos del cielo

Ando volando bajo
Nomás porque no me quieres
Y estoy clavado contigo
Teniendo tantos placeres
Me gusta sentir tus pasos
Habiendo tantas mujeres

Tú y las nubes me traen muy loco
Tú y las nubes me van a matar
Yo pa´ arriba volteo muy poco
Tu pa´abajo no sabes mirar

Yo no nací pa´pobre
Me gusta todo lo bueno
Y tú tendrás que quererme
O en la batalla me muero
Pero esa boquita tuya
Me habrá de decir te quiero

Árbol de la esperanza
Que vives sólo en el campo
Tú dices si no la olvido
O dime si no la aguanto
Que al fin y al cabo mis ojos
Se van a llenar de llanto

Tú y las nubes me traen muy loco
Tú y las nubes me van a matar
Yo pa´ arriba volteo muy poco
Tu pa´abajo no sabes mirar
