Un monde avec toi / The World We Knew

Imagen
  Un monde avec toi es una canción de la francesa Mireille Mathieu, lanzada en 1967  con letra de Charles Aznavour. Se trata de la versión en francés del tema "The World We Knew (Over and Over)", compuesto por el  alemán Bert Kaempfert, inmortalizado por Frank Sinatra. Letra Jour après jour J'avais forgé d'amour Un monde avec toi Où nos lois étaient les mêmes Un incroyable Un impartageable Monde avec toi Fait de joie et d'amour Et notre ciel était clair et sans pareil La poussière à nos pieds semblait de l'or La moindre lueur était soleil Mais ce rêve, pour toi, fut bien trop fort Depuis, chaque nuit, Mon chagrin rebâtit Un monde avec toi Où ta voix crie "Je t'aime!" Et notre ciel était clair et sans pareil La poussière à nos pieds semblait de l'or La moindre lueur était soleil Mais ce rêve, pour toi, fut bien trop fort Depuis, chaque nuit, Mon chagrin rebâtit Un monde avec toi Où ta voix crie "Je t'aime!" Jour après jour J'...

Cycles

   Versión instrumental interpretada por Henry Mancini de la canción escrita en 1968 por Gayle Caldwell  popularizada por Frank Sinatra  . Letra So I'm down and so I'm out But so are many others So I feel like tryin' to hide My head 'neath these covers Life is like the seasons After winter comes the spring So I'll keep this smile awhile And see what tomorrow brings I've been told and I believe That life is meant for livin' And even when my chips are low There's still some left for givin' I've been many places Maybe not as far as you So I think I'll stay awhile And see if some dreams come true There isn't much that I have learned Through all my foolish years Except that life keeps runnin' in cycles First there's laughter, then those tears But I'll keep my head up high Although I'm kinda tired My gal just up and left last week Friday I got fired You know it's almost funny But things can't get worse than now So I'...

Young at heart

Imagen
  Canción del mexicano Johnny Richards, Juan Manuel Cascales, de 1953 en la versión de Frank Sinatra. Aparece el los títulos de crédito de la película del mismo nombre de Gordon Douglas. Letra Fairy tales can come true It can happen to you If you're young at heart For it's hard you will find To be narrow of mind If you're young at heart You can go to extremes With impossible schemes You can laugh when your dreams Fall apart at the seams And life gets more exciting With each passing day And love is either in your heart Or on it's way Don't you know that it's worth Every treasure on earth To be young at heart For as rich as you are It's much better by far To be young at heart And if you should survive to 105 Look at all you'll derive Out of being alive And here is the best part You've had a head start If you are among the very Young at heart And if you should survive to 105 Think of all you'll derive Out of being alive And here is the best part You...

The shadow of your smile

Imagen
  La sombra de tu sonrisa, es una canción compuesta por Johnny Mandel en 1965, con letra de Paul Francis Webster, para la película The Sandpiper (Castillos en la arena) de 1965 de Vicente Minnelli. En sus múltiples versiones, traigo la de Astrud Gilberto, también fantástica la de Frank Sinatra . Letras One day we walked along the sand One day in early spring You held a piper in your hand To mend its broken wing Now I'll remember many a day And many a lonely mile The echo of a piper's song The shadow of a smile The shadow of your smile When you are gone Will color all my dreams And light the dawn Look into my eyes My love and see All the lovely things You are to me Our wistful little star Was far too high A teardrop kissed your lips And so did I Now when I remember spring All the joy that love can bring I will be remembering The shadow of your smile

It was a very good year

Imagen
   Compuesta por  Ervin Drake ( I believe ) en 1961 en la versión de Frank Sinatra Letra When I was seventeen it was a very good year It was a very good year for small town girls and soft summer nights We'd hide from the lights on the village green When I was seventeen When I was twenty-one it was a very good year It was a very good year for city girls who lived up the stair With all that perfumed hair and it came undone When I was twenty-one Then I was thirty-five it was a very good year It was a very good year for blue-blooded girls Of independent means, we'd ride in limousines their chauffeurs would drive When I was thirty-five But now the days are short, I'm in the autumn of the year And now I think of my life as vintage wine from fine old kegs From the brim to the dregs, and it poured sweet and clear It was a very good year It was a mess of good years

Bewitched, bothered and bewildered

Imagen
  "Hechizado, molesto y desconcertado" es una canción incluida en el musical Pal Joey de Richard Rodgers y Lorenz Hart , que fue llevada al cine por George Sidney, con Frank Sinatra ,  Rita Hayworth y Kim Novak. Desde entonces, ha tenido innumerables versiones. Destaco, además de la de Barbra Streisand, ésta del pianista norteamericano Brad Mehldau, por su sentimiento. Letra After one whole quart of brandy Like a daisy, I'm awake With no bromo-seltzer handy I don't even shake Men are not a new sensation I've done pretty well I think But this half-pint imitation Put me on the blink I'm wild again, beguiled again A simpering, whimpering child again Bewitched, bothered, and bewildered am I Couldn't sleep and wouldn't sleep When love came and told me I shouldn't sleep Bewitched, bothered and bewildered am I Lost my heart, but what of it He is cold I agree He can laugh, but I love it Although the laugh's on me I'll sing to him, each spring to hi...
