CANTOAUTORA CANADIENSE
TAKE MY HAND FOR A WHILE
TEXTO DE LA CANCIÓN
Take my hand for a while,
explain it to me once again,
just for the sake of my broken heart.
Look into my eyes
and maybe I will understand
how love I counted on was never there.
You see, I thought that you might love me.
So you caught me, it seems,
off balance with a heart that's full,
of love and pretty dreams
that two should share.
And so, I know,
but please before you go.....
Take my hand for a while,
explain it to me once again,
explain it to me once again,
just for the sake of my broken heart.
Look into my eyes
and maybe I will understand
how love I counted on was never there.
You see, I thought that you might love me.
So you caught me, it seems,
off balance with a heart that's full,
of love and pretty dreams
that two should share.
And so, I know,
but please before you go.....
Take my hand for a while,
explain it to me once again,
Just for the sake of my broken heart.
UNIVERSAL SOLDIER
TEXTO DE LA CANCIÓN SOLDADO UNIVERSAL
He’s 5 foot 2 and he’s 6 feet 4
And he fights with missiles and with spears
He’s all of 31 and he’s only 17.
And he’s been a soldier for a thousand years
He’s a catholic, a Hindu, an atheist, a Jane
A boarders, a Baptist and Jew.
And he knows he shouldn’t ‘ve killed
And he knows he always will kill
You’ll for me my friend and me for you
He’s fighting for Canada.
He’s fighting for France.
He’s fighting for the USA.
And he’s fighting for the Russians.
And he’s fighting for Japan
And he thinks we’ll brought an end to war this way.
He’s fighting for democracy,
he’s fighting for the reds
He says it’s for the peace of all.
He’s the one, who must decide,
who’s to live and who’s to die.
And he never sees the writing on the walls.
But without him,
how would Hitler have condemned him at Dachau?
Without him Caesar would have stood alone
He’s the one who gives is body
as a weapon to the war.
And without him all this killing can’t go on
He’s the universal soldier
And he really is the blame
But his orders comes from
far away no more.
They come from him.
And you and me.
Oh, brothers can’t you see.
This is not the way we put an end to war
And he fights with missiles and with spears
He’s all of 31 and he’s only 17.
And he’s been a soldier for a thousand years
He’s a catholic, a Hindu, an atheist, a Jane
A boarders, a Baptist and Jew.
And he knows he shouldn’t ‘ve killed
And he knows he always will kill
You’ll for me my friend and me for you
He’s fighting for Canada.
He’s fighting for France.
He’s fighting for the USA.
And he’s fighting for the Russians.
And he’s fighting for Japan
And he thinks we’ll brought an end to war this way.
