It was almost like a song

Imagen
  Canción escrita por Hal David y Archie Jordan, en 1977 . Aquí en la versión de Johnny Hartman. Letra Once in every life ... someone comes along, And you came to me ... it was almost like a song. You were in my heart ... right where you belong, And we were so in love ... it was almost like a song. January through December ... we had such a perfect year, Then the flames became a dying ember ... All at once you weren't here. Now my broken heart ... cries for you each night, And it's almost like a song ... but it's much too sad to write. Now my broken heart ... cries for you each night, And it's almost like a song ... but it's much to sad to write ... Much too sad to write.

Imagen
  Canción de 1970 escrita por Burt Bacharach y Hal David para The Carpenters. Letra Why do birds suddenly appear Every time you are near? Just like me, they long to be Close to you Why do stars fall down from the sky Every time you walk by? Just like me, they long to be Close to you On the day that you were born the angels got together And decided to create a dream come true So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold And starlight in your eyes of blue That is why all the girls in town Follow you all around Just like me, they long to be Close to you On the day that you were born the angels got together And decided to create a dream come true So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold And starlight in your eyes of blue That is why all the girls in town Follow you all around Just like me, they long to be Close to you Just like me, they long to be Close to you Wa, close to you Wa, close to you Ha, close to you La, close to you

One less egg to fry One less man to pick up after I should be happy But all I do is cry (Cry cry no more laughter) Oh, I should be happy (Oh, why did he go?) I only know that since he left My life's so empty Though I try to forget It just can't be done Each time the doorbell rings I still run (I still run) I don't know how in the world To stop thinking of him 'Cause I still love him so (Love him so) I end each day the way I start out Crying my heart out Oh... One less man to pick up after... No more laughter... No more love... (no more love) Since he went Oh, he went away (He went away) (One less bell to answer) Why did he leave me?

Walk on By

  Canción compuesta por Burt Bacharach, con letra de Hal David, grabada originalmente por Dionne Warwick.  Letras If you see me walking down the street And I start to cry each time we meet Walk on by, walk on by Make believe That you don't see the tears Just let me grieve In private 'cause each time I see you I break down and cry And walk on by (don't stop) And walk on by (don't stop) And walk on by I just can't get over losing you And so if I seem, broken and blue Walk on by Walk on by Foolish pride That's all that I have left So let me hide The tears and the sadness you gave me When you said goodbye Walk on by (don't stop) Walk on by (don't stop) Walk on by (don't stop) Walk on Walk on by Walk on by Foolish pride That's all that I have left So let me hide The tears and the sadness you gave me When you said goodbye Walk on by (don't stop) Walk on by (don't stop) Now you really gotta go, so walk on by (don't, don't stop) Baby, lea...

A guy with a pin to burst your bubble That's what you get for all your trouble I'll never fall in love again I'll never fall in love again … What do you get when you kiss a guy?
