Roxette - Things Will Never Be The Same



Lay it down
Pull my heart to the ground
Time's getting cold
Now the leaves all turn hard and blue

And I know
When I gaze to the sun
No place to hide
I got nowhere to run from you
Away from you

Hold me now
Girl, I don't know when
When we will ever meet again

That was then
Baby this is now
I try to get over you

Losing you...
Things will never be the same
Can you hear me call your name?
If we changed it back again
Things would never be...

In your hand
Babe, I don't understand
You've got the eyes of a child but you hurt like a man
Always do
Always do

Touch me now
Girl I don't know when
When we will ever meet again?
That was then
Baby this is now
Time won't get over you

Losing you...
Things will never be the same
Can you hear me call your name?
If we changed it back again
Things would never be the same

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Under The Bridge



Sometimes I feel
Like I don't have a partner
Sometimes I feel
Like my only friend
Is the city I live in
The city of angels
Lonely as I am
Together we cry

I drive on her streets
'Cause she's my companion
I walk through her hills
And she knows who I am
She sees my good deeds
And she kisses me windy
I never worry
Now that is a lie

I don't ever want to feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way

It's hard to believe
That there's nobody out there
It's hard to believe
That I'm all alone
At least I have her love
The city she loves me
Lonely as I am
Together we cry

I don't ever want to feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all that way

Under the bridge downtown
Is where I drew some blood
Under the bridge downtown
I could not get enough
Under the bridge downtown
Forgot about my love
Under the bridge downtown
I gave my life away

Written by Anthony Kiedis, John Frusciante, Flea & Chad Smith

Elvis Presley - Suspicious Minds



We're caught in a trap
I can't walk out
Because I love you too much baby

Why can't you see
What you're doing to me
When you don't believe a word I say?

We can't go on together
With suspicious minds
And we can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds

So, if an old friend I know
Drops by to say hello
Would I still see suspicion in your eyes?

Here we go again
Asking where I've been
You can't see these tears are real
I'm crying

We can't go on together
With suspicious minds
And be can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds

Oh let our love survive
Or dry the tears from your eyes
Let's don't let a good thing die

When honey, you know
I've never lied to you
Mmm yeah, yeah

Written by Mark James

Andrés Calamaro - Paloma



Mi vida fuimos a volar
Con un solo paracaídas
Uno sólo va aquedar
Volando a la deriva
Vivir así no es vivír
Esperando y esperando
Porque vivir es jugar
Y yo quiero seguir jugando

Le dije a mi corazón
Sin gloria pero sin pena
No cometas el crimen, varón
Si no vas a cumplir la condena
Quiero vivir a veces
Para poder olvidarte
Quiero llevarte conmigo
Y no voy a ninguna parte

No te preocupes, Paloma
Hoy no estoy adentro mío
Tu amor es mi enfermedad
Soy un envase vacío
No te preocupes Paloma
No hay pájaros en el nido
Dos ilusiones se irán a volar
Pero otras dos han venido

Si me olvido de vivir
Colgado de sentimientos
Voy a vivir para repetir otra vez
Este momento
Te bajaría del cielo, mujer
La luna hasta tu cama
Porque es muy poco de amor
Sólo una vez por semana
Puse precio a mi libertad
Y nadie quiso pagarlo
Te cambio tu corazón por el mío
Para mirarla y mirarla
…de gloria, mujer
Quiero un pedazo de cielo
Para invitarte a dormir
En la cama o en el suelo
Un sacrificio ritual bien o mal
Yo quiero hacerle a mi estrella
Sin principio ni final
No quiero vivir sin ella

No te preocupes, Paloma
Hoy no estoy adentro mío
Tu amor es mi enfermedad
Soy un envase vacío
No te preocupes Paloma
No hay pájaros en el nido
Dos ilusiones se irán a volar
Pero otras dos han venido

Letra & música de Andrés Calamaro


Para el Honestidad Brutal de 1999.

Crowded House - Fall At Your Feet



I'm really close tonight
And I feel like I'm moving inside her
Lying in the dark
And I think that I'm beginning to know her
Let it go
I'll be there when you call

And whenever I fall at your feet
You let your tears rain down on me
Whenever I touch your slow turning pain

You're hiding from me now
There's something in the way that you're talking
Words don't sound right
But I hear them all moving inside you, go
I'll be waiting when you call

Hey and whenever I fall at your feet
Won't you let your tears rain down on me
Whenever I touch your slow turning pain

The finger of blame has turned upon itself
And I'm more than willing to offer myself
Do you want my presence or need my help
Who knows where that might lead
I fall

Whenever I fall at your feet
Would you let your tears rain down on me
Whenever I fall, ever I fall
