letra de I Feel Free
Feel free when I dance with you
We move like the sea.
You, you're all I want to know

I feel free.
I feel free.
I feel free.

I can walk down the street, there's no one there
Though the pavements are one huge crowd
I can drive down the road; my eyes don't see
Though my mind wants to cry out loud

I feel free.
I feel free.
I feel free

I can walk down the street, there's no one there
Though the pavements are one huge crowd
I can drive down the road; my eyes don't see
Though my mind wants to cry out loud
Though my mind wants to cry out loud

Dance floor is like the sea
Ceiling is the sky
You're the sun and as you shine on me

I feel free.
I feel free.
I feel free

letra de Sunshine of Your Love
It's getting near dawn,
When lights close their tired eyes.
I'll soon be with you my love,
To give you my dawn surprise.
I'll be with you darling soon,
I'll be with you when the stars start falling.

I've been waiting so long
To be where I'm going
In the sunshine of your love.

I'm with you my love,
The light's shining through on you.
Yes, I'm with you my love,
It's the morning and just we two.
I'll stay with you darling now,
I'll stay with you till my seas are dried up.

I've been waiting so long
I've been waiting so long
I've been waiting so long
To be where I'm going
In the sunshine of your love.

White RoomVer letra 4:59

letra de White Room
In a white room with black curtains, by the stations
Black roof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings
Silver horses ran down moonbeams, in your dark eyes
Dawn-light smiles on you leaving, my contentment

I'll wait in this place where the Sun never shines
Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves

You said no strings could secure you at the station
Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows
I walked into such a sad time at the station
When I walked out, felt my own need just beginning

I'll wait in this place where the Sun never shines
Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves

At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd
Consolation for the old wounds now forgotten
Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in het dark eyes
She's dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings

I'll wait in this place where the Sun never shines
Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves

letra de Badge
Thinkin' 'bout the times you drove in my car
Thinkin' that I might have drove you too far
And I'm thinkin' 'bout the love that you laid on my table

I told you not to wander 'round in the dark
I told you 'bout the swans, that they live in the park
Then I told you 'bout our kid, now he's married to mabel

Yes, I told you that the light goes up and down
Don't you notice how the wheel goes 'round?
And you better pick yourself up from the ground
Before they bring the curtain down
Yes, before they bring the curtain down

Talkin' 'bout a girl that looks quite like you
She didn't have the time to wait in the queue
She cried away her life since she fell off the cradle
Composición: Eric Clapton, George Harrison

letra de Presence of the Lord
I have finally found a way to live
Just like I never could before.
I know that I don't have much to give,
But I can open any door.

Everybody knows the secret,
Everybody knows the score.
I have finally found a way to live
In the color of the Lord.

I have finally found a place to live
Just like I never could before.
And I know I don't have much to give,
But soon I'll open any door.

Everybody knows the secret,
Everybody knows the score.
I have finally found a place to live
In the presence of the Lord.
In the presence of the Lord.

I have finally found a way to live
Just like I never could before.
And I know I don't have much to give,
But I can open any door.

Everybody knows the secret,
I said everybody knows the score.
I have finally found a way to live
In the color of the Lord.
In the color of the Lord.

letra de After Midnight
After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang out
After midnight, we're gonna chug-a-lug and shout
We're gonna stimulate some action
We're gonna get some satisfaction
We're gonna find out what it is all about

After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang out
After midnight, we're gonna shake your tambourine
After midnight, it's all gonna be peaches and cream
We're gonna cause talk and suspicion
We're gonna give an exhibition
We're gonna find out what it is all about
After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang out

After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang out

Second Verse

After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang out
After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang out
After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang out
After midnight, we're gonna let it all hang out

Let It RainVer letra 5:06

[X]
letra de Let It Rain
The rain is falling through the mist
Of sorrow that surrounded me.
The sun could never thaw away
The the bliss that lays around me.

Let it rain, let it rain,
Let your love rain down on me.
Let it rain, let it rain,
Let it rain, rain, rain.

Her life was like a desert flower
Burning in the sun.
Until I found the way to love,
It's harder said than done.

Chorus

Now I know the secret;
There is nothing that I lack.
If I give my love to you,
You'll surely give it back.

Chorus

letra de Bell Bottom Blues
Bell bottom blues, you made me cry
I don't wanna lose this feeling
And if I could choose a place to die
It would be in your arms

Do you wanna see me crawl across the floor to you?
Do you wanna hear me beg you to take me back?
I would gladly do it because
I don't wanna fade away
Give me one more day, please
I don't wanna fade away
In your heart I want to stay

It's all wrong, but it's all right
The way that you treat me baby
Once I was strong but I lost the fight
You won't find a better loser

Do you wanna see me crawl across the floor to you?
Do you wanna hear me beg you to take me back?
I would gladly do it because
I don't wanna fade away
Give me one more day, please
I don't wanna fade away
In your heart I want to stay

Do you wanna see me crawl across the floor to you?
Do you wanna hear me beg you to take me back?
I would gladly do it because
I don't wanna fade away
Give me one more day, please
I don't wanna fade away
In your heart I want to stay

Bell bottom blues, don't say goodbye
I'm sure we're gonna meet again
And if we do, don't you be surprised
If you find me with another lover

Do you wanna see me crawl across the floor to you?
Do you wanna hear me beg you to take me back?
I would gladly do it because
I don't wanna fade away
Give me one more day, please
I don't wanna fade away
In your heart I want to stay

I don't wanna fade away
Give me one more day please
I don't wanna fade away
In your heart I long to stay

letra de Layla
What will you do when you get lonely
And no one's waiting by your side?
You've been running and hiding much too long
You know it's just your foolish pride

Layla
You've got me on my knees, Layla
Begging darling please, Layla
Darling, won't you ease my worried mind?

Tried to give you consolation
When your old man, he let you down
Like a fool, I fell in love with you
You turned my whole world upside down

Layla
You've got me on my knees, Layla
Begging darling please, Layla
Darling, won't you ease my worried mind?

Make the best of the situation
Before I finally go insane
Please don't say we'll never find a way
Or tell me all my love's in vain

Layla
You've got me on my knees, Layla
Begging darling please, Layla
Darling, won't you ease my worried mind?

Let It GrowVer letra 4:57

[X]
letra de Let It Grow
Standing at the crossroads, trying to read the signs
To tell me which way I should go to find the answer
And all the time I know
Plant your love and let it grow

Let it grow, let it grow
Let it blossom, let it flow
In the sun, the rain, the snow
Love is lovely, let it grow

Looking for a reason to check out of my mind
Trying hard to get a friend that I can count on
But there's nothing left to show
Plant your love and let it grow

Let it grow, let it grow
Let it blossom, let it flow
In the sun, the rain, the snow
Love is lovely, let it grow

Time is getting shorter and there's much for you to do
Only ask and you will get what you are needing
The rest is up to you
Plant your love and let it grow

Let it grow, let it grow
Let it blossom, let it flow
In the sun, the rain, the snow
Love is lovely, let it grow

Let it grow, let it grow
Let it blossom, let it flow
In the sun, the rain, the snow
Love is lovely, let it grow

I Shot the SheriffVer letra 4:22

[X]
letra de I Shot the Sheriff
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot the deputy
I shot the sheriff
But I didn't shoot the deputy

All around my home town
They're trying to track me down
They say they want to bring me in guilty
For the killing of the deputy
For the life of a deputy

I said

I shot the sheriff
But I swear it was in self defense
I shot the sheriff
And they say it was a capital offense

Sheriff John Brown always hated me
For what? I don't know
But every time that I plant a seed
He said, "kill it before it grows" (2x)

I said

(2x)
I shot the sheriff
But I swear it was in self defense

Freedom came my way one day
And I started out of town
All of a sudden I see Sheriff John Brown
Aimin' to shoot me down
So I shot, I shot him down

I said

(2x)
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot the deputy

Reflexes got the better of me
And what is to be must be
Every day the bucket falls to the well
One day the bottom will drop out
Yes, one day the bottom will drop out

I said

I shot the sheriff
But I didn't shoot the deputy
Oh, no, oh, no
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy
Oh, no

letra de Hello Old Friend
As I am strolling down the garden path,
I saw a flower glowing in the dark.
It looked so pretty and it was unique;
I had to bend down just to have a peek.

Hello old friend,
It's really good to see you once again.
Hello old friend,
It's really good to see you once again.

I saw you walking underneath the stars;
I couldn't stop 'cause I was in a car.
I'm sure the distance wouldn't be too far
If I got out and walked to where you are.

Chorus

An old man passed me on the street today;
I thought I knew him but I couldn't say.
I stopped to think if I could place his frame.
When he tipped his hat I knew his name.

If you wanna get down, down on the ground

When your day is done and you wanna run

If your thing is gone, and you wanna ride on

letra de Lay Down Sally
There is nothing that is wrong
In wanting you to stay here with me.
I know you've got somewhere to go,
But won't you make yourself at home and stay with me?
And don't you ever leave.

Chorus:
Lay down, Sally, and rest you in my arms.
Don't you think you want someone to talk to?
Lay down, Sally, no need to leave so soon.
I've been trying all night long just to talk to you.

The sun ain't nearly on the rise
And we still got the moon and stars above.
Underneath the velvet skies,
Love is all that matters. Won't you stay with me?
And don't you ever leave.

I long to see the morning light
Coloring your face so dreamily.
So don't you go and say goodbye,
You can lay your worries down and stay with me.
And don't you ever leave.

Wonderful TonightVer letra 3:41

[X]
letra de Wonderful Tonight
It's late in the evening
She's wondering what clothes to wear
She'll put on her make-up
And brushes her long blond hair

And then she'll ask me: Do I look alright?
And I'll say: Yes, you look wonderful tonight

We'll go to a party
And everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady
That's walking around with me

And then she'll ask me: Do you feel alright?
And I'll say: Yes, I feel wonderful tonight

I feel wonderful
Because I see the love light in your eyes
And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize
How much I love you

It's time to go home now
I've got an aching head
So I'll give her the car keys
She'll help me to bed

And then I'll tell her
As I turn out the light
I say: My darling, you were wonderful tonight
Oh, my darling, you were wonderful tonight

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

PromisesVer letra 2:59

[X]
letra de Promises
I don't care if you never come home
I don't mind if you just keep on rowin' away on a distant sea
'Cause I don't love you and you don't love me

You cause a commotion when you come to town
You give 'em a smile and they melt
Having lovers and friends is all good and fine
But I don't like yours and you don't like mine

La la, la la la la
La la, la la la la

I don't care what you do at night
Oh, and I don't care how you get your delights
I'm gonna leave you alone
I'll just let it be
I don't love you and you don't love me

I got a problem
Can you relate?
I got a woman callin' love hate
We made a vow we'd always be friends
How could we know that promises end?

La la, la la la la
La la, la la la la

I tried to love you for years upon years
You refuse to take me for real
It's time you saw what I want you to see
And I'd still love you if you just loved me

I got a problem
Can you relate?
I got a woman callin' love hate
We made a vow we'd always be friends
How could we know that promises end?

Before you finally understand?
Won't you be my forever woman?

letra de Miss You
Don't change your mind,
I ain't got the time to sit and wonder.
I'm doing fine.
If you decide to leave, I won't go under.

You know I've come this far without you;
It won't be too hard to be alone.
I've got choices all around me,
So I won't be spending too much time at home.

Girl, I'm gonna miss you.
I'm gonna miss you, baby.
I can't forgive you,
Still I'm gonna miss you, baby.

No, don't say a word.
I already heard that you don't love me.
In your state of mind,
I don't need to hear your side of the story.

Your friends all said we had a future
And I don't think I really want to know.
My friends keep telling me to lose you
And how glad they'll be when you decide to go.

Chorus

I broke my back to make you happy.
Sometime, somehow, someone's got to care.
If you think you're better off without me,
Just remember, it's a dirty world out there.

Chorus

I'm gonna miss the ground you walk on,
Gonna miss the air you breathe.
I'm just not quite happy, baby,
'bout your crazy plans to leave.

PretendingVer letra 4:43

[X]
letra de Pretending
How many times must we tell the tale?
How many times must we fall?
Living in lost memory
You just recalled

Working on the sound of the band
Trying to get the music right
Two go out working
Three stay home at night

That's when she said she was pretending
Like she knew the plan
That's when I knew she was pretending
Pretending to understand

Pretending, pretending
Pretending, pretending

Satisfied but lost in love
Situations change
You're never who you used to think you are
How strange

I get lost in alibis
Sadness can't prevail
Everybody knows strong love
Can't fail

Don't be pretending about how you feel
Don't be pretending that your love is real
Don't be pretending about how you feel
Don't be pretending that your love is real

letra de Bad Love
Oh, what a feeling I get when I'm with you
You take my heart into everything you do
And it makes me sad for the lonely people
I walked that road for so long
Now I know that I'm one of the lucky people
Your love is making me strong

I've had enough bad love
I need something I can be proud of
I've had enough bad love
No more bad love

And now I see that my life has been so blue
With all the heartaches I had 'till I met you
But I'm glad to say now that's all behind me
With you here by my side
And there's no more memories to remind me
Your love will keep me alive

I've had enough bad love
I need something I can be proud of
I've had enough bad love
No more bad love

I've had enough bad love
I need something I can be proud of
I've had enough bad love
No more bad love

I've had enough bad love
I need something I can be proud of
I've had enough bad love
No more bad love

I've had enough
I've had enough
No more bad love
I've had enough
I've had enough

Would you know my name
If I saw you in Heaven?
Would it be the same
If I saw you in Heaven?
I must be strong
And carry on
'Cause I know I don't belong
Here in Heaven

Would you hold my hand
If I saw you in Heaven?
Would you help me stand
If I saw you in Heaven?
I'll find my way
Through night and day
'Cause I know I just can't stay
Here in Heaven

Time can bring you down
Time can bend your knees
Time can break your heart
Have you begging please
Begging please

Beyond the door
There's peace, I'm sure
And I know there'll be no more
Tears in Heaven

Would you know my name
If I saw you in Heaven?
Would you be the same
If I saw you in Heaven?
I must be strong
And carry on

Here in Heaven

Well, I did more for you, girl, than your daddy ever done.

If I could reach the stars
I'd pull one down for you
Shine it on my heart
So you could see the truth
That this love I have inside
Is everything it seems
But for now I find
It's only in my dreams

That I can change the world
I would be the sunlight in your universe
You would think my love was really something good
Baby, if I could change the world

If I could be king
Even for a day
I'd take you as my queen
I'd have it no other way
And our love would rule
This kingdom we have made
Till then I'll be a fool
Wishin' for the day

That I can change the world
I would be the sunlight in your universe
You would think my love was really something good
Baby, if I could change the world
Baby, if I could change the world

That I can change the world
I would be the sunlight in your universe
You would think my love was really something good

letra de Riding with the King
I dreamed I had a good job and I got well paid.
I blew it all at the penny arcade.
A hundred dollars on a kewpie doll.
No pretty chick is gonna make me crawl.

Get on a TWA to the promised land.
Every woman, child and man
Gets a Cadillac and a great big diamond ring.
Don't you know you're riding with the king?

He's on a mission of mercy to the new frontier,
He's gonna check us all on out of here.
Up to that mansion on a hill
Where you can get your prescription filled.

Get on a TWA to the promised land.
Everybody clap your hands.
And don't you just love the way that he sings?
Don't you know we're riding with the king?
Riding with the king.
Don't you know we're riding with the king?

A tuxedo and shiny 335.
You can see it in his face, the blue never lie.
Tonight everybody's getting their angel wings.
And don't you know we're riding with the king?

I stepped out of Mississippi when I was ten years old
With a suit cut sharp as a razor and a heart made of gold.
I had a guitar hanging just about waist high
And I'm gonna play this thing until the day I die.

Don't you know we're riding with the king?
Don't you know we're riding with the king?
Riding, you're riding with the king.
You're riding, you're riding with the king.

Lord, I rolled and I tumbled, cried the whole night long.
And I woke up this morning, my biscuit rollin' on.

Had to fold my arms and slowly walked away.
(I didn't like the way she done.)
Lord, I fold my arms and I slowly walked away.
Well, I said in my mind, "Your trouble gonna come some day."

Well, now run here baby, get down on bended knee.

letra de Ride the River
Floating down that old Riverboy
All my worries far behind
Floating down that old Riverboy
Leave all Memories way behind
Yesterday slowly think all my life
ivÂ´been waiting for this time

Floating down that old Riverboy
Leaves me feeling good inside
Floating down that old Riverboy
Trying to get to the other Side
Yesterday slowly think i´ve been
waiting now and forever for this Ride

Ride the River in this Boat
Ride the River......
4 Times

Floating down that old Riverboy
All my Worries far behind
Floating down that old Riverboy
Leave all Memories way behind
Yesterday slowly think i´ve been
waiting now and forever for this Ride

Ride the River in this Boat
Ride the River......
