Oakland Athletics
The Oakland Athletics (often abbreviated to Oakland A′s) are an American professional baseball team based in Oakland, California. The Athletics are a member club of the West division of the American League (AL) in Major League Baseball (MLB). The club plays its home games at O.co Coliseum. The club has won nine World Series championships, the third most of all current Major League Baseball teams.
One of the American League's eight charter franchises, the club was founded in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in 1901 as the Philadelphia Athletics. They won three World Series championships from 1910 to 1913 and two in a row in 1929 and 1930. The team's owner and manager for its first 50 years was Connie Mack and Hall of Fame players included Chief Bender, Frank "Home Run" Baker, Jimmie Foxx, and Lefty Grove. The team left Philadelphia for Kansas City in 1955 and became the Kansas City Athletics before moving to Oakland in 1968. They won three World Championships in a row from 1972 to 1974, led by players including Catfish Hunter, Reggie Jackson, ace reliever Rollie Fingers, and colorful owner Charlie O. Finley. After being sold by Finley to Walter A. Haas, Jr., the team won three consecutive pennants and the 1989 World Series behind the "Bash Brothers", Jose Canseco and Mark McGwire, as well as Hall of Famers Dennis Eckersley and Rickey Henderson.
Abraham & Straus
Abraham & Straus, commonly shortened to A&S, was a major New York City department store, based in Brooklyn. Founded in 1865, it became part of Federated Department Stores in 1929. Shortly after Federated's 1994 acquisition of R.H. Macy & Company, it eliminated the A&S brand. Most A&S stores took the Macy's name, although a few became part of Stern's, another Federated division, but one that offered lower-end goods than did Macy's or A&S.

Cuando rÃes cuando lloras
Cuando callas o al hablar
Cada gesto me provoca
Amarte más
Eres mi punto de partida
Mi principio y mi final
Eres el centro de mi vida
Mi guerra y mi paz
Sólo Tú
Conoces mis sentimientos
De verdad
Si yo pudiera volar hasta el cielo
En mis brazos Te llevarÃa
Porque llenas a diario mi vida
De ilusión y de alegrÃa
Porque sólo Tú me comprendes
Porque Tu amor cambió mi mente
Si me pidieras el mundo entero
Te lo darÃa
En la paz de Tu mirada
Hallo mi estabilidad
En tus brazos y en Tu alma
Mi seguridad
Sólo Tú
Conoces mis sentimientos
De verdad
Si yo pudiera volar hasta el cielo
En mis brazos Te llevarÃa
Porque llenas a diario mi vida
De ilusión y de alegrÃa
Porque sólo Tú me comprendes
Porque Tu amor cambió mi mente
Si me pidieras el mundo entero
Te lo darÃa
Si yo pudiera volar
Hasta el cielo
En mis brazos Te llevarÃa
Porque llenas a diario mi vida
De ilusión y de alegrÃa
Sólo Tú me comprendes
Y Tu amor cambió mi mente
Si me pidieras el mundo entero
Te lo darÃa
Literal English Translation of Sólo Tú (Only You)
Translated by Deby Martinez
When You smile when You cry/When You are quiet when you talk
Every expression makes me/love You more
You are my courage/My beggining and my end
You are the center of my life/my war and my peace
Only You/Know my real feelings
CHORUS:
If I could fly to Heaven
I would take You in my arms
BEcause You fullfill my life
With joy and happiness
Because only You understand me
And Your love changed my mind
If You would ask for the whole world
I would give it
In the peace of Your sight
I find my stability
In Your arms and in Your soul
My well being
Only You/know my real feelings
