together

claping for brotherhood

dancing for happiness

standing up for peace

singing for love

celebrating life in a new day

New days to come

for everyone

new things to be done

in the world’s run

among the resolutions

peace is real revolution

Peace – Norah Jones

There’s a place that I know
Where the sycamores grow
And daffodils have their fun
Where the care of the day
Seem to slowly fade away
In the glow of the evening sun

Peace when the day is done
If I go there real late
Let my mind meditate
On everything to be done

If I search deep inside
Let my conscience be my guide
Then the answers are sure to come
Don’t have to worry none

When you find peace of mind
Leave your worries behind
Don’t say that it can’t be done
With a new point of view
Life’s true meaning comes to you
And the freedom you seek is won

Peace is for everyone
Peace is for everyone
Peace is for everyone

water

pumps life flowing

drop after drop

it keeps us rolling

not a single time

like a flame

it is the same

let’s catch this train

that’ll bring us the change

A Change Is Gonna Come – Sam Cooke

I was born by the river
In a little tent
Oh, and just like the river, I’ve been running
Ever since

It’s been a long
A long time coming, but I know
A change gon’ come
Oh yes, it will

It’s been too hard living
But I’m afraid to die
‘Cause I don’t know what’s up there
Beyond the sky

It’s been a long
A long time coming, but I know
A change gon’ come
Oh yes, it will

I go to the movie
And I go downtown
And somebody keep telling me
«Don’t hang around»

It’s been a long
A long time coming, but I know
A change gon’ come
Oh yes, it will

Then, I go to my brother
And I say, «Brother, help me, please»
But he winds up knockin’ me
Back down on my knees, oh

There been times that I thought
I couldn’t last for long
But now, I think I’m able
To carry on

It’s been a long
A long time coming, but I know
A change gon’ come
Oh yes, it will

friends

no excuse for oppression

no reason for injustice

no need for fight

no sound of explosion

no time for war

to be friends

is the only human’s mission

We Are the Champions – de Queen

I’ve paid my dues
Time after time
I’ve done my sentence
But committed no crime
And bad mistakes
I’ve made a few
I’ve had my share of sand
Kicked in my face
But I’ve come through

And we mean to go on and on and on and on

We are the champions, my friends
And we’ll keep on fighting till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
‘Cause we are the champions of the World

I’ve taken my bows
And my curtain calls
You brought me fame and fortune
And everything that goes with it
I thank you all
But it’s been no bed of roses
No pleasure cruise
I consider it a challenge before
The human race
And I ain’t gonna lose

And we mean to go on and on and on and on

We are the champions, my friends
And we’ll keep on fighting till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
‘Cause we are the champions of the World

We are the champions, my friends
And we’ll keep on fighting till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
‘Cause we are the champions of the World

Seasons of Love – Jonathan Larson

Five hundred, twenty five thousand, six hundred minutes
Five hundred, twenty five thousand moments so dear
Five hundred, twenty five thousand, six hundred minutes
How do you measure, measure a year?

In daylights, in sunsets
In midnights, in cups of coffee
In inches, in miles
In laughter, in strife

In five hundred, twenty five thousand, six hundred minutes
How do you measure a year in a life?

How about love?
How about love?
How about love?
Measuring love
Seasons of love
Seasons of love

Five hundred, twenty five thousand, six hundred minutes
Five hundred, twenty five thousand journeys to plan
Five hundred, twenty five thousand, six hundred minutes
How can you measure the life of a woman or a man?

In truths that she learned
Or in times that he cried
In bridges he burned
Or the way that she died

It’s time now to sing out
Although it’s not the end
To celebrate, remember a year in the life of a friend

Remember the love
Remember the love
Remember the love
Measuring the seasons of love
Seasons of love

Rewrite – Paul Simon

I’m workin’ on my rewrite, that’s right
Gonna change the ending
Throw away the title
And toss it in the trash
Every minute after midnight
All the time I’m spending
Is just for workin’ on my rewrite, that’s right
Gonna turn it into cash

I been workin’ at the car wash
I consider it my day job
‘Cause it’s really not a pay job
But that’s where I am
Everybody says «The old guy
Workin’ at the car wash?»
Hasn’t got a brain cell left
Since Vietnam

But I say
Help me, help me
Help me, help me
Ohhh
Thank you
I’d no idea
That you were there

When I said help me, help me
Help me, help me
Ohhh
Thank you
For listening to my prayer

I’m workin’ on my rewrite, that’s right
Gonna change the ending
Gonna throw away my title
And toss it in the trash
Every minute after midnight
All the time I’m spending
Is just for workin’ on my rewrite, that’s right
Gonna turn it into cash

I’ll eliminate the pages
Where the father has a breakdown
And he has to leave the family
But he really meant no harm
Gonna substitute a car chase
And a race across the rooftops
Where the father saves the children
And he holds them in his arms

I said
Help me, help me
Help me, help me
Ohh
Thank you
I’d no idea
That you were there

When I said
Help me, help me
Help me, help me
Ohhh
Thank you
For listening to my prayer

Workin’ on my rewrite

Not just

dreams

so unreal they may seem

next year let’s them be

the light that guides us in the sea

and in the hope for our destiny

never stop to believe

a new star

in the milky sky

is bringing a white

printable chapter

to our history. Let’s close

the present black one

sad as it is

to colour a cheerful

rainbow in it.

let’s pass it on

a smile in the eyes

travelling thousand miles

to stop frightening nights

of deadly lights

all human mights

to create a future life

bright and nice

That Spirit of Christmas – Ray Charles

Christmas is the time of year
For being with the one’s we love
Sharing so much joy and cheer
What a wonderful feelin’
Watching the one’s we love
Having so much fun

I was sittin’ by the fire side
Taking a walk through the snow
Listening to a children’s choir
Singing songs about Jesus
The blessed way that he came to us
Why can’t it remain
All through the year
Each day the same
Heyeah, that’s what I wanna hear
It’s truly amazin’
That spirit of Christmas

All the kin folk gather round
The lovely Christmas tree
Hearts are glowing full of joy
Sense the gifts that we’re giving
And the love that we’re living
Why can’t it remain
Oh all through the year
Each day the same
that’s what I wanna hear
I’ll tell ya
It’s truly amazin’
That spirit of Christmas

Why can’t it remain
All through the year
Each day the same
That’s what I wanna hear
Listen to me
It’s truly amazin’
That spirit of Christmas
Oh it’s truly amazin’
That spirit of Christmas
Ain’t it so
It’s truly amazin’
Yeah, that spirit of Christmas
Oh Christmas
Oh Christmas

the storm

brought a white blanket

that covered the blooding Earth

from sea to mountains

wiping away destruction and death

from sad fields of desolation

waving flags of compassion

to embrace love with passion

Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow! – Dean Martin

Oh, the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful
And since we’ve no place to go
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

Man, it doesn’t show signs of stopping
And I’ve brought me some corn for popping
The lights are turned way down low
Let it snow, let it snow

When we finally kiss goodnight
How I’ll hate going out in the storm
But if you really hold me tight
All the way home I’ll be warm

And the fire is slowly dying
And, my dear, we’re still goodbying
But as long as you love me so
Let it snow, let it snow, and snow

When we finally kiss goodnight
How I’ll hate going out in the storm
But if you really grab me tight
All the way home I’ll be warm

Oh, the fire is slowly dying
And, my dear, we’re still goodbying
But as long as you love me so
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
