It's My Life



This ain't a song for the broken-hearted
No silent prayer for the faith-departed
I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd
You're gonna hear my voice
When I shout it out loud

[Chorus:]
It's my life
It's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just wanna live while I'm alive
It's my life

This is for the ones who stood their ground
For Tommy and Gina who never backed down
Tomorrow's getting harder make no mistake
Luck ain't even lucky
Got to make your own breaks

[Chorus:]
It's my life
And it's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive
'Cause it's my life

Better stand tall when they're calling you out
Don't bend, don't break, baby, don't back down

[Chorus:]
It's my life
And it's now or never
'Cause I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive

[Chorus:]
It's my life
And it's now or never
'Cause I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive
'Cause it's my life!

Casablanca, As Time Goes By



You must remember this
A kiss is just a kiss
A sigh is just a sigh
The fundamental things apply
As time goes by

And when two lovers woo
They still say: "I love you"
On that you can rely
No matter what the future brings
As time goes by

Moonlight and love songs - never out of date
Hearts full of passion - jealousy and hate
Woman needs man - and man must have his mate
That no one can deny

It’s still the same old story
A fight for love and glory
A case of do or die
The world will always welcome lovers
As time goes by

We need the eggs!



After that it got pretty late, and we both had to go, but it was great seeing Annie again. I... I realized what a terrific person she was, and... and how much fun it was just knowing her; and I... I, I thought of that old joke, I'know, the, this... this guy goes to a psychiatrist and says, "Doc, uh, my brother's crazy; he thinks he's a chicken." And, uh, the doctor says, "Well, why don't you turn him in?" The guy says, "I would, but I need the eggs." Well, I guess that's pretty much now how I feel about relationships; I'know, they're totally irrational, and crazy, and absurd, and... but, uh, I guess we keep goin' through it because, uh, most of us... need the eggs.

QUE SERA



When I was just a little girl
I asked my mother, what will I be
Will I be pretty, will I be rich
Here's what she said to me.

Que Sera, Sera,
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours, to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be.

When I was young, I fell in love
I asked my sweetheart what lies ahead
Will we have rainbows, day after day
Here's what my sweetheart said.

Que Sera, Sera,
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours, to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be.

Now I have children of my own
They ask their mother, what will I be
Will I be handsome, will I be rich
I tell them tenderly.

Que Sera, Sera,
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours, to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be.

You've Got a Friend



When you’re down and troubled
and you need a helping hand
and nothing, whoa nothing is going right.
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest nights.

You just call out muy name
And you know wherever I am
I’ll come running, oh yeah baby
To see you again.
Winter, spring, summer, or fall,
All you have to do is call
And I’ll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah.

You’ve got a friend.

If the sky above you
Should turn dark and full clouds
And that old north wind should begin to blow.
Keep your head togheter and call my name out loud
And soon I will be knocking upon your door.

You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I’ll come running to see you again
Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall
All you got to do is call
And I’ll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah

Hey ain’t it good to know that you’ve got a friend?
People can be so cold.
They’ll hurt you and desert you
Well they’ll take your soul if you let them.

You just call out muy name
And you know wherever I am
I’ll come running to see you again
Oh babe, don’t you know that.
Winter, Spring, Summer, or Fall
Hey now, all you’ve got to do is call
Lord. I’ll be there, yes I will

You’ve got a friend.
You’ve got a friend.

Ain’t it good to konw you’ve got a friend
Ain’t it good to konw you’ve got a friend

You’ve got a friend.

Cuando estés deprimido y atribulado,
necesites una mano que te ayude
y nada de nada salga bien.
Cierra tus ojos, piensa en mi
y pronto estaré allí
para alegrar incluso la más oscura de tus noches.

Solo tienes que pronunciar mi nombre
y sabes que dondequiera que esté
vendré corriendo, nena,
para verte de nuevo.
Invierno, primavera, verano u otoño,
todo lo que tienes que hacer es llamarme
y yo estaré allí.

Tienes un amigo.

Si por encima de ti, el cielo
se volviera oscuro y lleno de nubes
y empezara a soplar el viejo viento del norte,
mantén tu cabeza equilibrada, llámame fuerte
y pronto estaré llamando a tu puerta.

Solo tienes que pronunciar mi nombre
y sabes que dondequiera que esté
vendré corriendo a verte de nuevo.
Invierno, primavera, verano u otoño.
todo lo que tienes que hacer es llamarme
y yo estaré allí.

No es bueno saber que tienes un amigo?
La gente puede ser tan fria,
te lastimarán y abandonarán,
se llevarán tu alma si les dejas.

Solo tienes que pronunciar mi nombre
y sabes que dondequiera que esté
vendré corriendo para verte de nuevo.
Oh nena, tú esto ya lo sabes.
Invierno, primavera, verano u otoño.
Todo lo que tienes que hacer es llamarme.
Señor. Allí estaré, sí, allí estaré.

Tienes un amigo.
Tienes un amigo.

No es bueno saber que tienes un amigo?
No es bueno saber que tienes un amigo?

Tienes un amigo.

Yes Virginia...



Dear Editor,
I am 8 years old. Some of my little friends say there is no Santa Claus. Papa says, “If you see it in The Sun, it’s so.” Please tell me the truth, is there a Santa Claus?
Virginia O’Hanlon

"Virginia, your little friends are wrong. They have been affected by the skepticism of a skeptical age. They do not believe except they see. They think that nothing can be which is not comprehensible by their little minds. All minds, Virginia, whether they be men’s or children’s, are little. In this great universe of ours, man is a mere insect, an ant, in his intellect as compared with the boundless world about him, as measured by the intelligence capable of grasping the whole of truth and knowledge.
Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they abound and give to your life its highest beauty and joy. Alas! how dreary would be the world if there were no Santa Claus! It would be as dreary as if there were no Virginias. There would be no childlike faith then, no poetry, no romance to make tolerable this existence. We should have no enjoyment, except in sense and sight. The external light with which childhood fills the world would be extinguished.
Not believe in Santa Claus! You might as well not believe in fairies. You might get your papa to hire men to watch in all the chimneys on Christmas eve to catch Santa Claus, but even if you did not see Santa Claus coming down, what would that prove? Nobody sees Santa Claus, but that is no sign that there is no Santa Claus. The most real things in the world are those that neither children nor men can see. Did you ever see fairies dancing on the lawn? Of course not, but that’s no proof that they are not there. Nobody can conceive or imagine all the wonders there are unseen and unseeable in the world.
You tear apart the baby’s rattle and see what makes the noise inside, but there is a veil covering the unseen world which not the strongest man, nor even the united strength of all the strongest men that ever lived could tear apart. Only faith, poetry, love, romance, can push aside that curtain and view and picture the supernal beauty and glory beyond. Is it all real? Ah, Virginia, in all this world there is nothing else real and abiding.
No Santa Claus! Thank God! he lives and lives forever. A thousand years from now, Virginia, nay 10 times 10,000 years from now, he will continue to make glad the heart of childhood."

Yesterday


Discover The Beatles!



All my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh, I believe
In yesterday

Suddenly
I'm not half the man I used to be
There's a shadow hanging over me
Oh, yesterday
Came suddenly

Why she
Had to go I don't know
She wouldn't say
I said
Something wrong now I long
For yesterday

Yesterday
Love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe
In yesterday

Why she
Had to go I don't know
She wouldn't say
I said
Something wrong now I long
For yesterday

Yesterday
Love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe
In yesterday
