You can't hurry love - Phil Collins

Katherine Hepburn
I need love, love
Oh, ease my mind
And I need to find time
Someone to call mine
My mama said, "you can't hurry love
No, you'll just have to wait"
She said, "love don't come easy
But it's a game of give and take"
You can't hurry love
No, you'll just have to wait
Just trust in a good time
No matter how long it takes
How many heartaches must I stand
Before I find the love to let me live again
Right now the only thing that keeps me hanging on
When I feel my strength, ooh, it's almost gone
I remember mama said, "you can't hurry love
No, you'll just have to wait"
She said, "love don't come easy
It's a game of give and take"
How long must I wait
How much more must I take
Before loneliness
Will cause my heart, heart to break
No, I can't bear to live my life alone
I grow impatient for a love to call my own
But when I feel that i, I can't go on
Well these precious words keep me hanging on
I remember mama said, "you can't hurry love
No, you'll just have to wait"
She said, "love don't come easy
But it's a game of give and take"
You can't hurry love
No, you'll just have to wait
Just trust in a good time
No matter how long it takes
Now wait
Now love, love don't come easy
But I keep on waiting
Anticipating for that soft voice
To talk to me at night
For some tender arms
Hold me tight
I keep waiting
Ooh, till that day
But it ain't easy (love don't come easy)
No, you know it ain't easy
My mama said you can't hurry love
No, you'll just have to wait
She said "love don't come easy
But it's a game of give and take"
You can't hurry love
No, you'll just have to wait
She said "love don't come easy
But it's a game of give and take"
You can't hurry love, no you'll just have to wait

The ballad of Lucy Jordan - Marianne Faithfull


The morning sun touched lightly on the eyes of Lucy Jordan
In a white suburban bedroom in a white suburban town
As she lay there 'neath the covers dreaming of a thousand lovers
'Til the world turned to orange and the room went spinning round
At the age of thirty-seven she realised she'd never
Ride through Paris in a sports car with the warm wind in her hair
So she let the phone keep ringing and she sat there softly singing
Little nursery rhymes she'd memorised in her daddy's easy chair
Her husband, he's off to work and the kids are off to school
And there are, oh, so many ways for her to spend the day
She could clean the house for hours or rearrange the flowers
Or run naked through the shady street screaming all the way
At the age of thirty-seven she realised she'd never
Ride through Paris in a sports car with the warm wind in her hair
So she let the phone keep ringing as she sat there softly singing
Pretty nursery rhymes she'd memorised in her daddy's easy chair

A man is in love - The Waterboys

Katherine Hepburn
A man is in love,
how do I know?
He came and walked with me, 
and he told me so
In a song he sang, 
and then I knew
A man is in love with you
A man is in love, 
how did I hear?
I heard him talk too much 
whenever you're near
He whispered your name 
when his eyes were closed
A man is in love and he knows
A man is in love, how did I guess?
I figuered it out while he was watching you dress
He'd give you his all, if you'd but agree
A man is in love and he's me.

Love of my life - Queen


Love of my life, you've hurt me
You've broken my heart and now you leave me
Love of my life, can't you see?
Bring it back, bring it back
Don't take it away from me, because you don't know
What it means to me
Love of my life, don't leave me
You've stolen my love, you now desert me
Love of my life, can't you see?
Bring it back, bring it back
Don't take it away from me
Because you don't know
What it means to me

You will remember
When this is blown over
Everything's all by the way
When I grow older
I will be there at your side to remind you
How I still love you
Hurry back, hurry back
Don't take it away from me
Because you don't know what it means to me

Demain c'est toi - Zaz


Je trace des chemins qui n'attendent que toi 
À toi l'enfant qui vient, je précède tes pas 
Je murmure ton nom dans le souffle de ma voix 
Je t'offrirai le monde, toi que je ne connais pas 
Je t'ouvre grand mon cœur comme on ouvre ses mains 
Je t'espère des bonheurs aussi grands que les miens 
Demain c'est toi 
J'apprends les alphabets de chacun de tes gestes 
Je te chante mes rêves d'espaces et de Far West 
Je veux pour toi l'amour, le rare et le précieux 
Toute la beauté du monde à portée de tes yeux 
Les poings chauffés à blanc, je forge pour demain 
Tes bonheurs que je souhaite aussi grands que les miens 
Demain c'est toi 
Je te donne les clés qui ouvrent tous les coffres 
Je pulvérise les murs des prisons que l'on t'offre 
Je cours à l'infini pour ne pas te laisser 
Tout c'que je n't'ai pas dit c'est parce que tu le sais 
C'est parce que tu le sais 
À toi l'enfant qui vient comme un petit matin 
Je t'espère des bonheurs aussi grands que les miens

(I've had) The time of my life - Jennifer Warnes & Bill Medley

Gisele Bündchen
Now I've had the time of my life
No I never felt like this before
If I swear it's the truth
And I owe it all to you
'Cause I've had the time of my life
And I owe it all to you

I've been waiting for so long
Now I've finally found someone
To stand by me
We saw the writing on the wall
As we felt this magical
Fantasy

Now with passion in our eyes
There's no way we could disguise it
Secretly
So we take each other's hand
'Cause we seem to understand
The urgency just remember

You're the one thing
I can't get enough of
So I'll tell you something
This could be love because

I've had the time of my life
No I never felt this way before
Yes I swear it's the truth
And I owe it all to you

With my body and soul
I want you more than you'll ever know
So we'll just let it go
Don't be afraid to lose control, no
Yes I know what's on your mind
When you say "Stay with me
Tonight." Just remember

You're the one thing
I can't get enough of
So I'll tell you something
This could be love because

I've had the time of my life
No I never felt this way before
Yes I swear it's the truth
And I owe it all to you

'Cause I had the time of my life
And I've searched through every open door
Till I've found the truth
And I owe it all to you

Tristras - Marful

Marilyn Monroe
Eu nom sei que tes nos olhos, que se me miras tu matas
Matas-me se pr'a mim ris, matas-me quando me falas
Meus olhos choram por ver-te meu coraçom por amar-te
Meus pés por chegar a ti meus braços por abraçar-te
Desejava de te ver, trinta dias cada mês
Cada semana o seu dia e cada dia umha vez
Tes os olhinhos azuis inda agora reparei
Se reparara mais cedo nom amava a quem amei
Ai de mim que já nom podo cantar esta cantiguinha
Dim que o amor é tam cego que nom sabe de malicia
Durante os primeiros anos todo é rosa sem espinhas
Hà mulheres que lamem as latas como gatas
Se nom che chega este mundo fai-te astrounauta
Ai mulheres valentes que ensinam os dentes
Ai mulheres que se pintam de caolim na Costa de Marfim di Rita Riveiro;
ai mulheres altas, redondas, coloradas
Se nom che chega este mundo fai-te astronauta.

Solo quiero estar contigo - El arrebato

Katherine Hepburn
Me llamó la atención 
tu risa, tu boca, tu voz
Y pensé que estaría bien, 
por qué no, conocernos mejor
Me llamó la atención, 
aquella manera de hablar
Con la luna en los ojos, 
invitando a soñar.

Y cuando quise darme cuenta 
ya estaba loco por ti
Ya mi vida era una noria 
que giraba sobre ti
Me enamoré hasta la trancas, 
en tu magia me perdí
Cualquier camino que escojo 
siempre me lleva hasta ti

Y hoy solo quiero estar contigo
Solo quiero verte cerca 
y beberme tu suspiro
Yo no espero tu respuesta ni crearte un compromiso
Lo que quiero es que comprendas
En que lio me he metido...

Me llamó la atención el brillo de tu corazón
Tus ojos de ron con cola, el carnaval de tu voz
Me llamó la atención tu forma de parar el tiempo,
La fiesta de tu sonrisa, tu artesanía de sueños

Y cuando quise darme cuenta ya estaba loco por ti
Ya mi vida era una noria que giraba sobre ti
Me enamoré hasta la trancas, en tu magia me perdí
Y que te has convertido en eso que se me nota al sonreir

Y hoy solo quiero estar contigo
Solo quiero verte cerca y beberme tu suspiro
Yo no espero tu respuesta ni crearte un compromiso
Lo que quiero es que comprendas
En que lio me he metido...

Yo quería ser normal - Tequila

Yo era raro.
Iba por mi lado y me sentía un inadaptado,
siempre al margen, como de un mundo lejano.
¿Dónde vas? Dónde vas, me preguntaban.
No sabía la respuesta y tampoco me importaba,
de la cama al salón y del salón a la cama.
Yo quería ser normal, pero no lo conseguía.
Siempre fuera de lugar, nunca nadie me entendía.
Yo quería ser igual.
Yo era raro.
Iba a contramano y me sentía como un gato encerrado.
Las horas de rutina pasaban poco a poco,
me tuve que escapar para no volverme loco.
Y me fui, me fui, me fui muy lejos,
tocando rock and roll, mirándome al espejo.
Peinaban mi cabeza palabras y sonidos,
buscaba en cada disco un tesoro escondido.
Yo quería ser normal, pero no lo conseguía.
Siempre fuera de lugar, nunca nadie me entendía.
Yo quería ser igual al resto de la gente,
pero me empezó a gustar ser un poco diferente.

Milonga de aquí - Sés


Con aire fresco de mar 
Curo feridas e loitos 
Que sexan poucas ou moitos 
É necesario sanar 

E vendo o mundo rodar 
Dando tumbos de vencido 
Dou por perdido o perdido 
E recollo o que quedou 
E co que me queda vou 
Seguindo o meu percorrido 

Para seguir camiñando 
Apóiome nas lembranzas 
E aliméntome de sons 
E nútrome das cancións 
Que dan cor a esta existencia 
Evitando a disidencia 
Dun obrigado vivir 
Que me fan chorar e rir 
Que me instalan na insurxencia 

E quero bailar ao ritmo 
Do que vive ilusionado 
E coa voz do silenciado 
Cantar quero con paixón 
Coa querenza e coa emoción 
Da que non pretende nada 
Máis que seguir namorada 
Mentres quede corazón 

Aspiro a soñar esperta 
Para facer máis levadeiro 
Este treito traizoeiro 
que garda unha fin incerta 
e cantar a gorxa aberta 
e deseñar utopías 
para encher de luz os días 
en que o sol non me sorrí 
en que non te teño a ti 
para inspirarme melodías 

E así seguirei rimando 
No medio do bombardeo 
Emulando o canso reo 
Reconvertido en poeta 
Que ten o fóra por meta 
E ten o dentro baleiro 
Un ollar sempre tristeiro 
E o pensamento no ar 
Onde voa o meu cantar 
Onde non hai carcereiro 

Invocando a redención 
Neste recuncho do mundo 
Faise o meu cantar profundo 
Como a terra en ultramar 
Coro faise o meu cantar 
Ao saberme secundada 
Aínda sendo abandeirada 
Dos que as levan de perder 
É por eles que hei morrer 
Sentíndome acompañada 

E na liberdade áurea 
Do melódico elemento 
Baila a risa co lamento 
E o cego co soñador 
O paria co gañador 
e o rebelde co castrado 
que, co sentir mutilado, 
ignora aquilo que eu sei 
por el é que eu berrarei 
para velo liberado.
