Enjoy a great SONG



..
"Woman" is a song written and performed by John Lennon from his 1980 album Double Fantasy. The track was chosen by Lennon to be the second single released from the Double Fantasy album, and it was the first Lennon single issued after his murder on 8 December 1980.  The B-side of the single is Ono's song "Beautiful Boys".
Lennon wrote "Woman" as an ode to his wife Yoko Ono, and to all women.The track begins with Lennon whispering, "For the other half of the sky ...", a paraphrase of a Chinese proverb, once used by Mao Zedong.

LYRICS

Woman
I can hardly express
My mixed emotions at my thoughtlessness
After all, I'm forever in your debt
And woman
I will try to express
My inner feeling and thankfulness
For showing me the meaning of success
Ooh, well, well
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Ooh, well, well
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Woman
I know you understand
The little child inside the man
Please remember my life is in your hands
And woman
Hold me close to your heart
However distant, don't keep us apart
After all it is written in the stars
Ooh, well, well
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Ooh, well, well
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Well, woman
Please let me explain
I never meant to cause you sorrow or pain
So let me tell you again and again and again
I love you, yeah, yeah
Now and forever
I love you, yeah, yeah
Now and forever
I love you, yeah, yeah
Now and forever
I love you, yeah, yeah

Enjoy a good SONG




Wonderwall
Today is gonna be the day
That they're gonna throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you gotta do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do, about you now
Backbeat, the word was on the street
That the fire in your heart is out
I'm sure you've heard it all before
But you never really had a doubt
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do about you now
And all the roads we have to walk are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
There are many things that I
Would like to say to you but I don't know how
Because maybe, you're gonna be the one that saves me
And after all, you're my wonderwall
Today was gonna be the day
But they'll never throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you're not to do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do, about you now
And all the roads that lead you there are winding
And all the lights that light the way are blinding
There are many things that I
Would like to say to you but I don't know how
I said maybe, you're gonna be the one that saves me
And after all, you're my wonderwall
I said maybe, you're gonna be the one that saves me
And after all, you're my wonderwall
I said maybe, you're gonna be the one that saves me
you're gonna be the one that saves me
you're gonna be the one that saves me

Just the way you are - Bruno Mars



Ohhh...
Oh her eyes, her eyes
make the stars look
like they're not shining
Her hair, her hair
falls perfectly
without her trying
She's so beautiful
and I tell her everyday

Yeah I know, I know
when I compliment her
she wont believe me
And it's so it's so
sad to think she
don't see what I see
But everytime she asks me do
I look okay
I say

[Chorus]
When I see your face
there's not a thing
that I would change
Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are

And when you smile
the whole world stops
and stares for a while
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are.

Her lips, her lips No eran "nails" (ya me extrañaba a mí!!!)
could kiss them
all day if she'd let me
Her laugh, her laugh
She hates but
I think it's so sexy
She's so beautiful
and i tell her
everyday

Oh you know, you know
you know
I'd never ask
you to change
if perfect is what
you're searching for
then just stay the same
So don't even bother asking
if you look okay
You know I say

[Chorus]

The way you are
The way you are
Girl you're amazing
Just the way you are

[Chorus]

Yeaaaaah.

LETRA TRADUCIDA AL ESPAÑOL
Oh, sus ojos, sus ojos
Hacen que las estrellas luzcan como si no brillara
Su cabello, su cabello
Roza el viento sin que ella lo pretenga
Ella es tan hermosa
Y se lo digo todo los días

Sí, yo sé, yo sé
Cuando la elogio ella no cree en mí
Y es tan, es tan
Triste pensar que ella no ve lo que yo veo
Sin embargo, cada vez que me pregunta
¿Cómo me veo?, yo le digo: muy bien

Cuando veo su rostro
No existe cosa que yo quisiera cambiar en el
Porque eres asombrosa
Así como eres

Y cuando sonries
El mundo entero se detiene y se te queda mirando
Porque linda, eres asombrosa
Así como eres

Sus labios, sus labios
Podría besarlos el día entero si ella me deja
Su risa, su sonrisa
Ella la odia pero yo pienso que es sexy
Ella es tan hermosa
Y se lo digo todo los días

Oh sabes, sabes, sabes
Que nunca te pediria que cambies
Si es la perfección lo que buscas
Te darás cuenta que la encontrarás siendo la misma
Así que no te molestes en preguntar si luces bien
Sabes lo que voy a decir

Cuando veo su rostro
No existe cosa que yo quisiera cambiar en el
Porque eres asombrosa
Así como eres

Y cuando sonries
El mundo entero se detiene y se te queda mirando
Porque linda, eres asombrosa
Así como eres

Así como eres
Así como eres
Cariño eres asombrosa
Así como eres

Cuando veo su rostro
No existe cosa que yo quisiera cambiar en el
Porque eres asombrosa
Así como eres

Y cuando sonries
El mundo entero se detiene y se te queda mirando
Porque linda, eres asombrosa
Así como eres

Sííí.

Song: Something Stupid - Unit 2b



SOMETHING STUPID.

I know I stand in line
Until you think you have the time
To spend an evening with me
And if we go someplace to dance
I know that there's a chance
You won't be leaving with me

Then afterwards we drop into a quiet little place
And have a drink or two
And then I go and spoil it all
By saying something stupid
Like I love you

I can see it in your eyes
You still despise the same old lines
You heard the night before
And though it's just a line to you
For me it's true
And never seemed so right before

I practice every day to find some clever
lines to say
To make the meaning come true
But then I think I'll wait until the evening
gets late
And I'm alone with you

The time is right
Your perfume fills my head
The stars get red
And oh the night's so blue
And then I go and spoil it all
By saying something stupid
Like I love you

The time is right
Your perfume fills my head
The stars get red
And oh the night's so blue
And then I go and spoil it all
By saying something stupid
Like I love you
I love you...


Algo estúpido

Sé que estoy a la espera
Hasta que creas tener tiempo
Para pasar una tarde conmigo
Y si vamos a algún lugar a bailar
Sé que es probable
Que no te marches conmigo

Ya después llegamos
A un lugar tranquilo
Y me tomo una o dos copas
Y luego voy y lo arruino todo
Al decir algo estúpido
Como "te amo"

Puedo verlo en tus ojos
Que desprecias las mismas
frases viejas
Que oíste la noche anterior
Y aunque sólo es una frase para ti
Para mí es la verdad
Y nunca me pareció tan correcto


Practico a diario para encontrar
Algunas frases ingeniosas que decirte
Para que el significado sea real
Pero luego pienso que es mejor esperar
Hasta que llegue la tarde
Y estar a solas contigo


El momento es el adecuado
Tu perfume llena mi cabeza
Las estrellas se vuelven rojas
Y oh la noche está tan azul
Y luego voy y lo arruino todo
Al decir algo estúpido
Como "te amo...
