"Canta Libre"

"Canta Libre"



Canta libre, Canta vida,
De mi madre,
Y mi padre

Canta mi corazon,
Para los ninos,
Y sus ninos, Canta libre

I got music running in my head
Makes me feel like a young bird flying
'Cross my mind and layin' in my bed
Keeps me away from the thought of dyin'

Canta libre, Canta vida,
De mi madre
Y mi padre

I got music runnin' in my brain
Ev'ry song with it's own kind of meaning
Cleanse the soul and wash away the pain
Baptized by the song that you're singing

Canta libre, Canta la vida
Siempre conmigo,
Canta libre

Canta libre,
Canta la vida

Canta mi corazon
Para los ninos
Y sus ninos
Canta libre
De mi madre
Y mi padre
Canta libre
Cante Libre

"Captain Of A Shipwreck"

"Captain Of A Shipwreck"



I was lost until you found me
You're the reason for my today
Was tempest tossed, now I sleep soundly
Thanks to you I gladly say

That if your goldmine comes up empty
I'll be there to work the claim
If you're a captain of a shipwreck
I'll be first mate to your shame

Trust in me to share your burden
Stand by you where I belong
When life brings the day uncertain
I will soothe you with my song

And if your goldmine comes up empty
I'll be there to work the claim
If you're a captain of a shipwreck
I'll be first mate to your shame

Fear no flood in stormy weather
Fear no fire if winds arise
Flesh and blood, I'm yours forever
And forever, it never dies

And if your goldmine comes up empty
I'll be there to work the claim
If you're a captain of a shipwreck
I'll be first mate to your shame

If you're a captain of a shipwreck
You can find me up on the top deck
You'll be captain of a shipwreck
I'll be first mate to your shame.

"Captain Sunshine"

"Captain Sunshine"


Captain Sunshine
Make me drink wine
Make me feel fine
When I'm feelin' wrongly down

He don't take much
He don't make much
But ah, to be such a man as he
And walk so pure
Between the earth and the sea

Captain Sunshine,
He do me fine
Make the words rhyme
When he knows the tune is sad

He don't take much
Lordy, he don't make much
But ah, to be such a man as he
And walk so pure
Between the earth and the sea

[Instrumental]

He don't take much
He don't make much
But ah, to be such a man as he
And walk so pure
Between the earth and the sea

"Carmelita's Eyes"

"Carmelita's Eyes"



Quizas algun dia
La encuentre otra vez alli
En una frontera
Me robo el corazon
Yo sabia que a ella la perdia
Vi todoun mundo en
Camelita's eyes

She took me somewhere,
Somewhere that's far beyond
Was going no where
And I couldn't go for long

The waitin' and prayin'
Was makin' me tell myself lies
And all I could see was my
Carmelita's eyes
Vi todoun mundo en
Carmelita's eyes

How did I live it before?
I just don't understand
Afraid that she'd read me and
Finally deceive me
I closed my eyes and I ran
But I want to be
Carmelita's man
Hey, hey

Yes I lost her 'cross the border
It was higher than I realize
And I left my whole world in
Carmelita's eyes
Vi todoun mundo en
Carmelita's eyes
I saw the whole world in
Carmelita's eyes
Vi todoun mundo en
Carmelita's eyes
I saw the whole world in
Carmelita's eyes

"Chelsea Morning"

"Chelsea Morning"




Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning
And the first thing that I heard
Was the song outside my window
And the traffic wrote the words
It came ringing up like Christmas bells
And rapping up like pipes and drums

Won't you stay
We'll put on the day
And we'll wear it 'till the night comes

Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning
And the first thing that I saw
Was the sun through yellow curtains
And a rainbow on the wall
Red, green and gold to welcome you
And crimson crystal beads to beckon

Won't you stay
We'll put on the day
There's a sun shower every second
(instrumental)
Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning
And the first thing that I knew
There was milk and toast and honey
And a bowl of oranges, too
And the light poured in like butterscotch
And stuck to all my senses

Won't you stay
We'll put on the day
And we'll talk in present tenses

"Cherry Cherry Christmas"

"Cherry Cherry Christmas"



Wish you a very merry, cherry cherry Christmas
And a holly holy holiday, too.
Underneath your tree may there always be
Sounds of harmony, not a song sung blue.

Just a very merry, cherry cherry Christmas.
And if all of those who love you gather near,
You'll have a very merry, cherry cherry, holly holy,
Rock and rolly Christmas this year.

When the snow drops on the treetops
It's a pretty amazing scene.
Hear the choir, light the fire.
Feels like pretty amazing grace if you know what I mean.

Oh yeah, it's Christmas time.

In a world of make-believe I'm a believer,
And I believe in things not always understood,
But the things you feel make believing real.
That's why Christmas feels so good, so good, so good.

When you imagine all the world as one great chorus,
You're gonna learn that every voice has got a song.
Let's raise a Christmas toast of red, red wine,
We'll even sing Sweet Caroline while the whole world sings along.

I hear music in the sound of children laughing.
It's a beautiful noise that fits you like a song.
Makes you wanna have a very merry, holly holy,
Cherry cherry Christmas time the whole year long.

The whole year long...sing your Christmas song...the whole year long.
Cherry Christmas, Everyone!!!

"Childsong"

"Childsong"



Weeping sky
We bring the sun
To make you glad
And fill you with the day

Quiet tree
We have the wind
To make you dance
And fill you with our play

And you shall be glad
And you shall dance
And you shall come
To hear our song
And learn its tune
Before it fades away....

To hear our song
And learn it's tune
Before it
Fades Away......
