For each moment of tears
I still have my souvenirs
Cherished in a pocket full of dreams
I could hold, I could feel
Kept pretending they were real
Long time after lovers stayed away
Now a picture of you
I had cherished so true
Even kissed till I'd see you again,
But when

Chorus

I've been crying today
Threw my memories away
Someting died, as I cried
For my broken souvenirs
As I reach for the sun
Find a place I belong
Now your one of my broken souvenirs

If you need me again,
There's no way you really can
Pasted pieces never make a whole
And if you leave your room
On some windy afternoon
Tried to see where all the pices flew
It was hard to get on
Since my memories were gone
But if you'll ever see me again
I can.

Repeat Chorus

Now your one of my broken souvenirs
Baby your one of my broken souvenirs.

[Spoken:]
Girl, you know we belong together
I have no time for you to be playing with my heart like this
You'll be mine forever, baby, you just see

[Verse:]
We belong together
And you know that I'm right
Why do you play with my heart?
Why do you play with my mind?

Said we'd be forever
Said it'd never die
How could you love me and leave me
And never say goodbye?

When I can't sleep at night without holding you tight
Girl, each time I try I just break down and cry
Pain in my head oh I'd rather be dead
Spinnin' around and around

[Chorus:]
Although we've come to the end of the road
Still I can't let you go
It's unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you
Come to the end of the road
Still I can't let you go
It's unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you

Girl, I know you really love me,
You just don't realize
You've never been there before
It's only your first time

Maybe I'll forgive you, hmm
Maybe you'll try
We should be happy together
Forever, you and I

Will you love me again like you loved me before
This time I want you to love me much more
This time instead just come to my bed
And, baby, just don't let me down

[Chorus:]
Although we've come to the end of the road
Still I can't let go
It's unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you
Come to the end of the road
Still I can't let go
It's unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you

[Spoken:]
Girl, I'm here for you
All those times at night when you just hurt me
And just run out with that other fella
Baby, I knew about it, I just didn't care
You just don't understand how much I love you do you?
I'm here for you
I'm not out to go out and cheat on you all night
Just like you did, baby, but that's all right
Hey, I love you anyway
And I'm still gonna be here for you 'till my dying day, baby
Right now, I'm just in so much pain, baby
'Cause you just won't come back to me
Will you? Just come back to me

(Lonely)
Yes, baby, my heart is lonely
(Lonely)
My heart hurts, baby
(Lonely)
Yes I feel pain too
Baby, please

This time instead just come to my bed
And, baby, just don't let me down

[Chorus:]
Although we've come to the end of the road
Still I can't let go
It's unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you
Come to the end of the road
Still I can't let go
It's unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you

[Chorus — a cappella:]
Although we've come to the end of the road
Still I can't let go
It's unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you
Come to the end of the road
Still I can't let go
It's unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you.

(Wanted wanted)
Alone, so alone that I could cry
I want to be wanted (wanted)
Alone, watching lovers passing by
I want to be wanted

When I am kissed
I want his lips to really kiss me
When we're apart
I want his heart to really miss me
I want to know
He loves me so his eyes are misting
That's the way I want to be loved

Alone, just my lonely heart knows how
I want to be wanted (wanted) right now
Not tomorrow, but right now
I want to be wanted

I want someone
To share my laughter and my tears with
Someone I know
I'd love to spend a million years with
Where is this someone somewhere meant for me?

(Alone) Just my lonely heart knows how
I want to be wanted (right now)
Not tomorrow, but right now
I want to be wanted

I want someone
To share my laughter and my tears with
Someone I know
I'd love to spend a million years with
Where is this someone somewhere meant for me?
(Someone, somewhere) Meant for me.

Haydée Mercedes Sosa (San Miguel de Tucumán, 9 de julio de 1935-Buenos Aires, 4 de octubre de 2009) fue una cantante de música folclórica argentina, considerada la mayor exponente del folklore argentino. Se la conoció como La Voz de América Latina.
Fundadora Del Movimiento del Nuevo Cancionero y una de las exponentes de la Nueva canción latinoamericana. Incursionó en otros géneros como El tango, el rock y el pop. Se definía a sí misma como «cantora» antes que «cantante», siendo una distinción fundamental de la nueva canción latinoamericana de la que ella fue una de las iniciadoras: «Cantante es el que puede y cantor el que debe» (Facundo Cabral).
Si no creyera en la locura
De la garganta del sinzontle,
Si no creyera que en el monte
Se esconde el trigo y la pavura...

Si no creyera en la balanza,
En la razón del equilibrio,
Si no creyera en el delirio,
Si no creyera en la esperanza...

Si no creyera en lo que agencio,
Si no creyera en mi camino,
Si no creyera en mi sonido,
Si no creyera en mi silencio...

¿qué cosa fuera, qué cosa fuera la maza sin cantera?
Un amasijo hecho de cuerdas y tendones,
Un revoltijo de carne con madera,
Un instrumento sin mejores pretenciones
De lucecitas montadas para escena...

¿qué cosa fuera, corazón, qué cosa fuera?
¿qué cosa fuera la maza sin cantera?
Un testaferro del traidor de los aplausos,
Un servidor de pasado en copa nueva,
Un eternizador de dioses del ocaso,
Júbilo hervido con trapo y lentejuela...

¿qué cosa fuera, corazón, qué cosa fuera?
¿qué cosa fuera la maza sin cantera?
¿qué cosa fuera, corazón, qué cosa fuera?
¿qué cosa fuera la maza sin cantera?

Si no creyera en lo más duro,
Si no creyera en el deseo,
Si no creyera en lo que creo,
Si no creyera en algo puro...

Si no creyera en cada herida,
Si no creyera en lo que ronde,
Si no creyera en lo que esconde
Hacerse hermano de la vida...

Si no creyera en quien me escucha,
Si no creyera en lo que duele,
Si no creyera en lo que quede,
Si no creyera en lo que lucha...

¿qué cosa fuera, qué cosa fuera la maza sin cantera?
Un amasijo hecho de cuerdas y tendones,
Un revoltijo de carne con madera,
Un instrumento sin mejores pretenciones
De lucecitas montadas para escena...

¿qué cosa fuera, corazón, qué cosa fuera?
¿qué cosa fuera la maza sin cantera?
