The Wild Rover








I've been a wild rover for many a year
And I spent all my money on whiskey and beer,
And now I'm returning with gold in great store
And I never will play the wild rover no more.

chorus: And it's no, nay, never,
No nay never no more,
Will I play the wild rover
No never no more.

I went to an ale-house I used to frequent
And I told the landlady my money was spent.
I asked her for credit, she answered me "nay
Such a custom as yours I could have any day."

chorus

I took from my pocket ten sovereigns bright
And the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight.
She said "I have whiskey and wines of the best
And the words that I spoke sure were only in jest."

chorus

I'll go home to my parents, confess what I've done
And I'll ask them to pardon their prodigal son.
And if they caress (forgive) me as ofttimes before
Sure I never will play the wild rover no more.

chorus

If I were a boy - Beyoncé


=========================================================



=========================================================



-Intimacy
-Honesty
-Commitment
-You, me, us

If I were a boy even just for a day
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
And throw on what I wanted 

Then go drink beer with the guys
And chase after girls
I'd kick it with who I wanted
And I'd never get confronted for it
Because they'd stick up for me

If I were a boy
I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man
I'd listen to her because I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
Because he's taken you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed

If I were a boy
I would turn off my phone
Tell everyone it's broken
So they'd think that I was sleeping alone
I'd put myself first
And make the rules as I go
Because I know that she'd be faithful
Waiting for me to come home, to come home

If I were a boy
I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man
I'd listen to her because I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted -wanted-
Because he's taken you for granted -granted-
And everything you had got destroyed
It's a little too late for you to come back
Say it's just a mistake
Think I'd forgive you like that
If you thought I would wait for you
You thought wrong
- You know when you act like that, I don't think you realize how it makes me look or feel
- Act like what? why are you so jealous? It's not like I'm sleeping with the guy
- What?
- What?
- I said: hey you why are you so jealous, it ain't like I'm sleeping with the girl
But you're just a boy, you don't understand
-Yeah you don't understand-
How it feels to love a girl 
Someday you wish you were a better man
You don't listen to her
You don't care how it hurts
Until you lose the one you wanted
Because you've taken her for granted
And everything you have got destroyed
But you're just a boy
Beyoncé - If I were a boy

-Intimidad
-Honestidad
-Compromiso
-Tú, yo, nosotros.

Si yo fuese un chico incluso solo por un día,
rodaría fuera de la cama por la mañana,
y me pondría lo que quisiera (throw on=ponerse cualquier cosa)
y entonces iría a beber cerveza con los chicos,
y andaría detrás de las chicas,
me divertiría con quien quisiera (kick it),
y nunca daría explicaciones por ello,
porque ellos (los chicos) sacarían la cara por mí (stick up for).

Si yo fuese un chico,
creo que podría entender
como se siente al amar a una mujer.
Juro que sería un hombre mejor,
la escucharía porque sé cómo duele,
cuando pierdes a aquel al que quieres,
porque él da por hecho que estarás allí (take for granted)
y todo lo que tuviste está destrozado.

Si yo fuese un chico
apagaría mi teléfono,
diría a todo el mundo que está roto,
entonces pensarían que estaba durmiendo solo.
Pensaría primero en mí, (put sb first)
y pondría las reglas sobre la marcha,
porque sé que ella sería fiel,
esperándome a que volviera a casa, volviera a casa.

Si yo fuese un chico,
creo que podría entender
como se siente al amar a una mujer.
Juro que sería un hombre mejor,
la escucharía porque sé cómo duele,
cuando pierdes a aquel al que quieres -quieres-
porque él da por hecho que estarás allí -da por hecho-
y todo lo que tuviste está destrozado.
Es un poco tarde para que vuelvas atrás,
para decir que solo es un error,
para pensar que yo te perdonaría así,
si pensaste que te esperaría,
lo pensaste mal.
- Sabes, cuando actúas así, no creo que te des cuenta cómo me haces parecer o sentir.
- ¿Actuar cómo? ¿por qué estás tan celoso? no es como si me estuviera acostando con el chico.
- ¿Qué?
- ¿Qué?
- Te he dicho, eh tú, por qué estás tan celosa, no es como 
si me estuviera acostando con la chica.
Pero tú eres sólo un chico, no entiendes
-Sí, no lo entiendes-
cómo se siente al amar a una chica
algún día desearás ser un hombre mejor.
Tú no la escuchas,
no te importa cómo duele,
hasta que no pierdas a aquella a la que querías,
porque has dado por hecho que estaría allí,
y todo lo que tienes está destrozado,
pero tú eres solo un chico. 
Beyoncé - If I were a boy - Si yo fuera un chico

AVICII - Waiting For Love

=========================================================
=========================================================
=========================================================

AVICII  --  "Waiting For Love"

(with Martin Garrix & John Legend)


Where there's a will, there's a way, kinda beautiful
And every night has its day, so magical
And if there's love in this life, there's no obstacle
That can't be defeated

For every tyrant a tear for the vulnerable
In every lost soul the bones of a miracle
For every dreamer a dream we're unstoppable
With something to believe in

Monday left me broken
Tuesday I was through with hoping
Wednesday my empty arms were open
Thursday waiting for love, waiting for love
Thank the stars it's Friday
I'm burning like a fire gone wild on Saturday
Guess I won't be coming to church on Sunday
I'll be waiting for love, waiting for love
To come around

We are one of a kind irreplaceable
How did I get so blind and so cynical
If there's love in this life we're unstoppable
No we can't be defeated

Monday left me broken
Tuesday I was through with hoping
Wednesday my empty arms were open
Thursday waiting for love, waiting for love
Thank the stars it's Friday
I'm burning like a fire gone wild on Saturday
Guess I won't be coming to church on Sunday
I'll be waiting for love, waiting for love
To come around

The Logical Song by Supertramp

Pronouncing final L
=================================
 (pay attention to his lips, not rounded)
=================================
Karaoke version ================================= =================================

The Logical Song



When I was young
It seemed that life was so wonderful
A miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical
And all the birds in the trees
Well they'd be singing so happily
Joyfully, playfully watching me
But then they send me away
To teach me how to be sensible
Logical, responsible, practical
And then they showed me a world
Where I could be so dependable
Clinical, intellectual, cynical
There are times when all the world's asleep
The questions run too deep for such a simple mind
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned?
I know it sounds absurd please tell me who I am
I said watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical
Liberal, fanatical, criminal?"
Won't you sign up your name? We'd like to feel you're
Acceptable, respectable, presentable, a vegetable
Oh, ch-ch-check it out yeah
At night when all the world's asleep
The questions run so deep for such a simple mind
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned?
I know it sounds absurd but please tell me who I am
Who I am, who I am, who I am
'Coz I'm feeling so illogical
D-d-digital
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Unbelievable
B-b-bloody marvelous

If You Were a Sailboat by Katie Melua

=================================== ===================================

If You Were A Sailboat

 

If you were a cowboy I would trail you
If you were a piece of wood Id nail you to the floor
If you were a sailboat I would sail you to the shore
If you were a river I would swim you
If you were a house I would live in you all my days
If you were a preacher Id begin to change my ways
Sometimes I believe in fate
But the chances we create
Always seem to ring more true
You took a chance on loving me
I took a chance on loving you
If I was in jail I know youd spring me
If I was a telephone youd ring me all day long
If I was in pain I know youd sing me soothing songs
Sometimes I believe in fate
But the chances we create
Always seem to ring more true
You took a chance on loving me
I took a chance on loving you
If I was hungry you would feed me
If I was in darkness you would lead me to the light
If I was a book I know youd read me every night
If you were a cowboy I would trail you
If you were a piece of wood Id nail you to the floor
If you were sailboat I would sail you to the shore
If you were sailboat I would sail you to the shore
If you were sailboat I would sail you to the shore

=======



=======

Prayer In C


Ya, you never said a word
you didn't send me no letter
don't think i could forgive you

see, our world is slowly dying
i'm not wasting no more time
don't think i could believe you

ya, you never said a word
you didn't send me no letter
don't think i could forgive you

see, our world is slowly dying
i'm not wasting no more time
don't think i could believe you

ya, our hands will get more wrinkled
and our hair, it will be grey
don't think i could forgive you

and see the children are starving
and their houses were destroyed
don't think they could forgive you

hey, when seas will cover lands
and when men will be no more
don't think you can forgive you

yeah, when there'll just be silence
and when life will be over
don't think you will forgive you

ya, you never said a word
you didn't send me no letter
don't think i could forgive you

see, our world is slowly dying
i'm not wasting no more time
don't think i could believe you

ya, you never said a word
you didn't send me no letter
don't think i could forgive you

see, our world is slowly dying
i'm not wasting no more time
don't think i could believe you

ya, our hands will get more wrinkled
and our hair, it will be grey
don't think i could forgive you

and see the children are starving
and their houses were destroyed
don't think they could forgive you

hey, when seas will cover lands
and when men will be no more
don't think you can forgive you

yeah, when there'll just be silence
and when life will be over
don't think you will forgive you

The Dubliners - Dirty Old Town

=================================================== ===================================================

Dirty Old Town ( The Pogues )

( Intro vers ) ( D )

G
I met my love by the gas works wall
Dreamed a dream by the old canal
I Kissed my girl by the factory wall
Dirty old town
Dirty old town

Clouds are drifting across the moon
Cats are prowling on their beat
Spring's a girl from the streets at night
Dirty old town
Dirty old town

( Solo vers ) ( C )

G
I Heard a siren from the docks
Saw a train set the night on fire
I Smelled the spring on the smoky wind
Dirty old town
Dirty old town

I'm gonna make me a big sharp axe
Shining steel tempered in the fire
I'll chop you down like an old dead tree
Dirty old town
Dirty old town

I met my love by the gas works wall
Dreamed a dream by the old canal
I kissed my girl by the factory wall
Dirty old town
Dirty old town
Dirty old town
Dirty old town
