George Baker Selection - Fly away little Paraquayo

Een van de 2 liedjes (zie ook het voorgaande nummer) die al dagen door mijn hoofd spoken en waar ik nog net geen nachtmerries (of hengsten) van krijg




They came in white boats, many years ago,
they gave you presents and promised you a lot.
But they lock you on a chain, put you in a mine,
and they said: "Work for the glory of our god!"

Fly away little paraquayo, stretch your wings out to the sky,
fly away little paraquayo, cause the white man's on the right.
Everybody is so hungry, every mind is filled with fear.
Fly away little paraquayo cause the soldiers’ll soon be here.

They said you're just an Indian, not better than the beast,
only good for working like a slave.
And so you sweat and run, til the day is done,
while you know you could be better in your grey.

Fly away...

Fly away...

Mariah Carey - All i want for christmas



I don't want a lot for Christmas
There's just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is...
You

I don't want a lot for Christmas
There's just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I don't need to hang my stocking
There upon the fireplace
Santa Claus won't make me happy
With a toy on Christmas day
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you
You baby

I won't ask for much this Christmas
I don't even wish for snow
I'm just gonna keep on waiting
Underneath the mistletoe
I won't make a list and send it
To the North Pole for Saint Nick
I won't even stay awake to
Hear those magic reindeers click
'Cause I just want you here tonight
Holding on to me so tight
What more can I do
Baby all I want for Christmas is you
Ooh baby
All the lights are shining
So brightly everywhere
And the sound of children's
Laughter fills the air
And everyone is singing
I hear those sleigh bells ringing
Santa won't you bring me the one I really need
Won't you please bring my baby to me...

Oh I don't want a lot for Christmas
This is all I'm asking for
I just want to see my baby
Standing right outside my door
Oh I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
Baby all I want for Christmas is...
You

The Rembrandts - I'll be there for you



So no one told you life was gonna be this way *clap*clap*clap*clap*
Your job's a joke, you're broke, your love life's D.O.A.

It's like you're always stuck in second gear
When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even your year

but..

I'll be there for you
When the rain starts to pour
I'll be there for you
Like I've been there before
I'll be there for you
'Cuz you're there for me too...

You're still in bed at ten and work began at eight
You've burned your breakfast so far... things are goin' great

Your mother warned you there'd be days like these
Oh but she didn't tell you when the world has brought
You down to your knees that...

I'll be there for you
When the rain starts to pour
I'll be there for you
Like I've been there before
I'll be there for you
'Cuz you're there for me too...

No one could ever know me
No one could ever see me
Seems you're the only one who knows
What it's like to be me
Someone to face the day with
Make it through all the rest with
Someone I'll always laugh with
Even at my worst I'm best with you, yeah

It's like you're always stuck in second gear
When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month,
or even your year...

I'll be there for you
When the rain starts to pour
I'll be there for you
Like I've been there before
I'll be there for you
'Cuz you're there for me too...

I'll be there for you
I'll be there for you
I'll be there for you
'Cuz you're there for me too...

Milk Inc - Tonight




I never knew
I could miss you so
Holding on to a dream
Never letting go

I never thought
Though it's been a year
You'd be here

Tonight, tonight
When we're together baby
Tonight, tonight
Will last forever baby
Tonight, tonight
We will feel alive

Tonight, this is where I wanna be
Holding you so close to me
Holding you forever

Tonight, this is what I wanna say
Everything's gonna be OK
Holding you forever

I never knew
I could miss you so
Holding on to a dream
Never letting go

I never thought
Though it's been a year
You'd be here

Tonight, this is where I wanna be
Holding you so close to me
Holding you forever

Tonight, this is what I wanna say
Everything's gonna be OK
Holding you forever

Tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight
When we're together baby
Tonight, tonight
Will last forever baby
Tonight, tonight
when we're together baby
Tonight, tonight
Will last forever baby
Tonight, tonight
When we're together baby
Tonight, tonight
Will last forever baby
Tonight, tonight
We will feel alive

Tonight, this is where I wanna be
Holding you so close to me
Holding you forever

Tonight, this is what I wanna say
Everything's gonna be OK
Holding you forever
