al jarreau - let me love you
Al Jarreau - Let Me Love You
Must have been that something you told me
Whispered just the other day
Said that you'd be leaving tomorrow
But there's got to be some other way
To bring you closer
Can we look closer
Would you stay with me
CHORUS:
Let me hold you
I can hold you longer
Let me feel you
'Til my heart is stronger
Let me love you
I can love you tenderly
I just can't believe that it's over
You looked at me and said goodbye
But deep inside my heart keeps on dreamin' baby
Cause there's still that look of love in your eye
When we were lovers
So close to each other
When our love was free
CHORUS:
Let me hold you
I can hold you longer
Let me feel you
'Til my heart is stronger
Let me love you
Yes, I can love you tenderly
So tenderly
Let me love you, tenderly
BRIDGE:
Love is patient
Love is a gift
Don't you know
All this time
I have been searchin
For a love land
Where we can live, together
Live forever
Live together
Live forever
Would you stay with me
CHORUS:
Let me hold you
I can hold you longer
Let me feel you
'Til my heart is stronger
Let me love you
I can love you tenderly

É samba de preto velho

Mas que nada
Um samba como esse tão legal
Você não vai querer
Que eu chegue no final
O aria raio
Oba oba oba
O aria raio

al jarreau - 10 k high
Would you like to come along
We can sing a simple song
If you want to name the tune, you're invited
I'm so glad that you're my friend
Did I say I think we'll win
Though the fight is so often one-sided
Can we sing that part again
All about how we will win
Gotta know how in the end nothins' dyin'
And the ribbon in the sky
Is the vision in your eye
Let's get lost in... stay lost and refine
The art of flyin'
We'll be 10 K high over the mountain
Over the river
We'll be 10 K high trusting our dream
To forever
We'll be 10 K high over the mountain
Over the river
We'll be 10 K high in every dream
Makin' heaven
What a day for breaking through
What a day for seeing you
Do you remember how we said
Nothins' dyin'
And the love of which I sing
Is like the phoenix on the wing
We started,we parted, we found
We're fond of flyin'
We'll be 10 K high over the mountain
Over the river
We'll be 10 K high trusting our dream
To forever
We'll be 10 K high over the mountain
Over the river
We'll be 10 K high in every dream
Makin' heaven
Speaking of warring nations
Talk of broken heart relations
Set me down in revelation's light
So that I might
That I might find a way to tell you true
Miracles redeeming you
We'll be 10 K high over the mountain
Over the river
We'll be 10 K high trusting our dream
To forever
We'll be 10 K high over the mountain
Over the river
We'll be 10 K high in every dream
Makin' heaven
al jarreau - a rhyme this time
I will take my time this time
I'm gonna make a
rhyme this time
I'll ring the bell this time
The dreaming's over
I'm gonna sing "Gotta Wing" this time
I've no sweets to sell
This time
The scheming's over
I'm gonna be only me this time
Most unfortunately, my dreams
Never knew the ground
Every mirror I see, reminds
Me you're not around
I let you down
All my stories tell, this time
The dreaming's over
I'm gonna bring everything
This time
(Guitar Solo)
Most unfortunately, my dreams
Never knew the ground
Every mirror I see, reminds
Me you're not around
I let us down
I will ring the bell this time
The dreaming's over
I'm gonna sing "Gotta Wing" this time
I will take my time this time
I'm gonna make a rhyme this time
I will make a rhyme this time
I'm gonna take my time this time
al jarreau - after all
There, there was a time I knew
That no matter, come what may, love
would prevail
And then inside the dreams I knew
Came the question lovers fear
Can true love fail
Then I would miss the childhood wish
And haven't I sung to you
Of the knight in armor bright
Faithful and true to you
CHORUS:
Darling, after all
I will be the one to hold you in my arms
After all
I will be the one to hold you
I will be the one to hold you in my arms
In my arms
I know in my heart and mind
That no matter, come what may, love will survive
And love, the author of space and time
Keeps the galaxies and each sparrow alive
And the love that heals the wound
After the war is through
Is the knight in armor bright
Faithful and true to you
CHORUS
al jarreau - água de beber
Your love is rain
My heart the flower
I need your love
Or I will die
My very life
Is in your power
Will I wither
And fade or bloom
To the sky
Água de beber
Give the flower
Water to drink
Água de beber
Give the flower
Water to drink
The rain can fall
On distant deserts
The rain can fall
Upon the sea
The rain can fall
Upon the flower
Since the rain
Has to fall
Let it fall on me
Água de beber
Água de beber
Camará
Água de beber
Água de beber
Camará
al jarreau - ain t no sunshine
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
It's not warm when she's away
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
She's gone much too long
Any time she goes away
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Wonder if she's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime she goes away
I know
She's gone to stay
It's breakin' me up
Anytime she goes away
Gotta leave the young thing alone
There ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
It's not warm when she's away
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And she's gone much too long
Any time she goes away
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
I wonder if she's gone to stay
There ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't a home
Any time she goes away
I know
She's gone to stay
It's breaking me up
Any time she goes away
Gotta leave the young thing alone
There ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
I wonder if she's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Any time she goes away
Any time she goes away
al jarreau - boogie down

And all I need is to
Get my boogie down
I can be what I want to
You know all I need is to
Get my boogie down
You can be what I want to
And all I need is to

You are the winner and you're gonna feel
You can be what you want to
And all you need is to
Get your boogie down
Chorus
I got my certain and my sure 'nough on

Come and strut your stuff but leave enough
For the nearest boogie and truest boogie woogie

al jarreau - cold duck
Eddie Load up
Eddie low down
Beautiful funk
from a hole in a horn
Burnin' it up
Burnin' it down
Burnin' so hot melt
the snow on the ground
Better pass the cold duck round.
Eddie got the cold duck down.
Eddie Load up
Eddie low down
Beautiful funk from a hole in a horn
Burnin' it up
Burnin' it down
Burnin' so hot melt
the snow on the ground
Eddie got the cold duck down.
Eddie got the cold duck down.
Eddie load up
Eddie low down
Beautiful funk
From a hole in a horn
Burnin' it up
Burnin' it down
Burnin' so hot melt the snow on the ground
Better pass the cold duck around.
Eddie got the cold duck down.
Eddie pass the cold duck 'round.
al jarreau - come rain or come shine
I'm gonna love you like nobody's loved you
Come rain or come shine
High as a mountain and deep as a river
Come rain or come shine
I guess when you met me
It was just one of those things
But don't you ever bet me
'Cause I'm gonna be true if you let me
You're gonna love me like nobody's loved me
Come rain or come shine
Happy together, unhappy together
And won't that be fine
Days may be cloudy or sunny
We're in or we're out of the money
But I'm with you always
I'm with you rain or shine
al jarreau - falling
Misty water colors
Raining trees and flowers
All inside a picture frame
Silent galleria, quiet Nostalgia
Sweet images remain
Just a face and a memory
Can't forget you were so near me
I'm always
Falling...loving...leaving...
Always
Falling...loving...leaving...
Then begin again
Another night in Paris
Misty eyes and hoir
Fashioned by the wind and rain
Another night to cherish
Pressed inside a heart
Where the images remain
Painted spaces and memories
Quiet places remind me
You're still by me
CHORUS:
al jarreau - fire and rain
Just yesterday mornin'
They let me know you were gone
Susanne, the plans they made
Put an end to you
I walked out this mornin'
And I wrote down this song
I just can't remember
Who to send it to
I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days
That I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times
When I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again
Won't you look down upon me, Jesus?
You gotta help me make a stand
You just got to see me
Through another day
My body's achin'
And my time is at hand
And I won't make it
Any other way
Woh, I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days
That I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times
When I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again
Been walkin' my mind to an easy time
My back turned towards the sun
Lord knows, when the cold wind blows
It'll turn your head around
Well, there's hours of time on the telephone line
To talk about things to come
Sweet dreams and flyin' machines
In pieces on the ground
Oh, I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days
That I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times
When I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you, baby
Thought I'd see you one more time again
There's just a few things comin' my way
This time around, now
Thought I'd see you
Thought I'd see you, fire and rain, now
al jarreau - flame
Al Jarreau - Flame
So close and yet so smart
Head first before the heart
Ain't no shame
Ain't no game
With the flame
Coldwaters rush in March
No place for April flowers
Take her name
Say she came
With the flame
I've been told
When the stars all align
That even bitter lips like mine
Will call the moon a friend & kiss again
Some I'm told
Let their hearts read the signs
While other men are hungerin
And can't let it in
Be still my foolish heart
Please don't upset the cart
Stay the same
Ain't no game
With the flame
I've been told
I'll be dancin in time
Walkin rhythm talkin rhyme
The earth will turn and send the sun again
All my gold
For a light or a sign
Some kind of kin
To say my friend
Let it out - let it in
Strange fire down below
So 'fraid to let you know
Change my name
Start again
With the flame
Strange fire down below
So fraid to let you know
Change my name
Start again
With the flame
The flame (2x)
al jarreau - go away little girl
go away little girl
go away little girl
i'm not supposed to be alone with you
i know that your lips are sweet
but our lips must never meet
i belong to somebody else
and i must be true.
oh go away little girl
go away little girl
it's hurting more the longer that you delay
when you are near me like this
you're much too hard to resist
go away little girl
before i beg you to stay.
i know that your lips are sweet
