Wet is rain
Rain is clean and new
New is the morning
And morning dew
Wet is a kiss that touches you
Wet is sea
Sea is mysterious blue
Blue is for sadness
And sad is for crying
Tears are wet too
Would you share these things with me
Dance in the rain
Drift with the sea
And let the tears fall as they may
Sometimes
I'm not afraid I’ll melt in the rain
I'm not afraid to be lost at sea
I'm not afraid to cry again
Because it's tears of joy
You bring to me
Would you share these things with me
Dance in the rain
Drift with the sea
And let the tears fall as they may
Sometimes
Wet is love
Love that's flowing free
Free is the feeling I feel deep inside me
In a small café
On a crowded night
In a spot of light
Stands the singer,
And the band begins
And the beat is strong
And the room belongs
To the singer,
All the people turn to hear
The sad refrain
And catch the cry of pain
That's in his song
But in his haunted face
And in his searching eyes
There's sign that something's wrong
Now the eager crowd
Hangs on every word
But the sounds are slurred by the singer
Till the people feel every aching part
Of the broke heart of the singer
Still the song goes on
About a love e knew
That seemed so sure and true
But turned out wrong
And from the tears he shows
Nobody really knows
Is he the singer or the song?
Is he the singer or the song?
As the sad song ends
He hits the final note
It catches in his throat
But comes out strong
And as he bows and goes
Nobody really knows
Was he the singer or the song?
Seek and you shall find what you may already have.
Sometimes it's your own shadow standing in your path.
I have spent my life with a vision of myself,
But I may have been somebody, somebody else.
I feel a change in the tide
As I hold my heart open wide.
Never
Knew what I could be.
I never felt the power inside of me.
Now I stand in all the wonder
That the mirror couldn't see.
I have the power inside of me, yeah.
I have the power inside of me.
Every time I held a rose, I only felt the thorns.
I feel like today's the day I finally was born.
Now that I see me through these eyes,
I can do more than fantasize.
Never
Knew what I could be.
I never felt the power inside of me.
Now I stand in all the wonder
That the mirror couldn't see!
I have the power inside of me, oh woah.
Inside of me,
Inside of me!
Don't call him up anymore
Cause I don't wanna hear your voice
I don' t wanna see your face
Answer his door
Make no mistake he's mine he's mine, he's mine
Barbra
He only knows how I feel
I only know what he's like
When he needs me
Oh how he needs me
Deep in the night
Make no mistake
He's mine, He's mine, he's mine
Don't get to close when you dance
Together
Cause I don't wanna hear from my friends
Barbra
You were out on the town
There in his arms ( there in his arms)
There in his arms ( there in his arms)
Don't include him in you dreams ( I wanna be in his dreams)
Cause I don't wanna close my eyes (my eyes)
Together
I don't wanna know where he goes
Each might when he leaves ( leaves)
Make no mistake (make no mistake)
He's mine (he's mine) He's mine ( he's mine)
He is mine........
Don't call him up anymore
Barbra
Dolly:
Horace Vandergelder, Mrs. Horace Vandergelder
Just leave ev'rything to me
Though it wont be like the first time
How can it be like the first time?
But Why does it have to be?
Don't look for shooting stars
For love is only love
You touch and still you touch the ground
Don't listen for those bells
For love is only love
And if it's love you've found
Your heart won't hear a sound
And you hold his hand
You only hold his hand
The violins are all a bluff
But if you're really wise
The silence of his eyes
Will tell you
Love is only love
And it's wonderful enough
Without the shooting star
Without the sounds of bells
Without the violins
Life isn't always what it seems
You have to fight to hold your dreams
I'll not let mine slip out the window
I've got no time to see which way the wind blows
One day I'll wash my grubby face
Then shine it right on in the race to somewhere
I can do it
Yes I can now
I can do it
I know I can
Come big or small chance I'll take it there
I'll join the dance and sing my way
I can do it
Just you let me
I can do it
I know I can
I'll knock the whole world down on its ear
People can love I'll make 'em cheer
Think of all the boys
Think of all the girls
That life is passing by
I can do it
I've gotta do it

Just in time
I found you just in time
Before you came, my time
Was running low,
I was lost,
The losing dice were tossed,
My bridges all were crossed
Nowhere to go,
Now you're here
And now I know just where I'm going
No more doubt or fear
I found my way
For love came just in time
I found you just in time
Sometimes you think you've lived before
All that you live to day
Things you do come back to you
As if they knew the way
Oh the tricks your mind can play
It seems we stood and talked like this, before
We looked at each other in the same way then
But I can't remember where or when
The clothes you're wearing are the close, you wore
The smile you are smiling you were smiling then
But I can't remember where or when
Some things that happened for the first time
Seem to be happening again
And so it seems we have met before
And laughed before, and loved before
When you walk through a storm
Hold your head up high
And don't be afarid of the dark
At the end of the storm
There's a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of a lark
Walk on
Through the wind
Walk on
Through the rain
Though your dreams be tossed and blown
Walk on
(Choir) Walk on
Oh walk on
(Choir) Walk on - hold you head up
When you walk
Through a storm
Hold your head up high
And don't be afraid
Of the dark
At the end of that strom
There's a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of a lark
Walk on
Through the wind
Walk on
Through the rain
Though your dreams be tossed and blown
Walk on
Walk on
With hope
Hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone
Here as I lay beside you, I know
How grateful my heart feels
Knowing that you’ve come
In my world to stay
Now I know my life has finally begun
That dream, that’s promised everyone
Now when the world around me looks gray
I look into your eyes and all the darkness goes
I can find my way
Finally I know I’m never alone
A light inside will lead me home
Remember it’s all there is
Remember it’s all there was
The answer is right here in our hands
And know if our hearts are true
There’s nothing we have to do
You and me for always
Now when I wake each morning I say
No need to look ahead
Leave the past behind
Here’s a brand new day
Suddenly my life is perfectly clear
The love we found was always here
Remember it’s all there is
Remember it’s all there was
The answer is right here in our hands
And know if our hearts are true
There’s nothing we have to do
You and me for always
Never ending, never changing
The answer is here in our hands
Always reaching , always climbing
You and me for always
Ever loving, ever lasting
The answer is here in our hands
Always changing, always loving...
Yesterdays, Yesterdays
Days I knew as happy sweet
Sequestered days
Olden days, Golden days
Days of mad romance and love
Then gay youth was mine
Truth was mine
Joyous free and flaming life
Forsooth was mine
Sad am I, glad am I
For today I'm dreaming of
Yesterdays
Then gay youth was mine
The truth was mine
Sad am I
Glad am I
For today I'm dreaming of
Yesterdays, youth was mine
Joyous free and flaming life
Forsooth was mine
Sad am I, oh so glad am I
For today I'm dreaming of
Oh tell me where-
Where is it written what it is I'm meant to be
That I can't dare
To have the chance to pick the fruit of ev'ry tree
Or have my share
Of ev'ry sweet-imagined possibility?
[Speaking]Those are questions that women have been asking for Centuries, and incredibly enough, I think they're still asking them today! I think that's what attracted me to YENTL, and why I had felt I had to make the film...YENTL, as some of you know, is the story of a girl in Eastern Europe at the turn of the Century, when the world of study belonged only to men. But Yentl's father, recognizing her thirst for knowledge, taught her secretly. And after his death, in order to continue her studies, she had had no choice, but go out into the world disguised as a man...
PAPA, CAN YOU HEAR ME?
Papa, can you hear me?
Papa, can you see me?
Papa, can you find me in the night?
Papa, are you near me?
Papa, can you hear me?
Papa, can you help me not be frightened?
Looking at the skies, I seem to see a million eyes
Which ones are yours?
Where are you now that yesterday
Has waved goodbye and closed its door?
The night is so much darker,
The wind is so much colder
The world I see is so much bigger
Now that I'm alone
Papa, please forgive me
Try to understand me
Papa, don't you know I had no choice?
Can you hear me praying,
Anything I'm saying,
Even though the night is filled with voices?
I remember ev'rything you taught me
Ev'ry book I've ever read
Can all the words in all the books
Help me to face what lies ahead?
The trees are so much taller
And I feel so much smaller
The moon is twice as lonely
And the stars are half as bright
Papa, how I love you
Papa, how I need you
Papa, how I miss you
Kissing me goodnight...
[Speaking]
To go on with the story, em, Yentl then meets a boy whom she falls in love with; but it turns out he's already in love with another girl, but because of circumstances I can't go into now, they're prevented from getting married. And to make a long story short, he asks Yentl, who, of course, he thinks is a boy to marry the girl, so he can still see her - not Yentl, the other girl! So, the girl and the girl get married, and if you want to see how Yentl got away with the wedding night, you'll have to rent the video! It's just a variation on the boy-meets-girl-meets-girl-story, it's very nineties! Anyway, mmm, one night he comes over to the house to study. But it's clear that the only thing he really wants to study is her...Not Yentl...Her wife, her...Get it? His eyes never leave her face...
WILL SOMEONE EVER LOOK AT ME THAT WAY?
See the way they gaze at her,
Like slaves they follow ev'ywhere she goes.
Do my eyes forget themselves
And do I ever look at him
And smile in such a way
That what I'm feeling shows?
Sometimes I have the feeling ev'rybody knows
And even though it's crazy,
Still I can't help wond'ring if I'll ever live to see that day
When by some miracle of miracles,
He'll turn around and look at me
That way...
A PIECE OF SKY
Oh tell me where?
Where is the someone who will turn and look at me?
And want to share
My ev'ry sweet-imagined possibility?
The more I live - the more I learn.
The more I learn - the more I realize
The less I know.
Each step I take -
(Papa, I've a voice now!)Each page I turn -
(Papa, I've a choice now!)Each mile I travel only means
The more I have to go.
What's wrong with wanting more?
If you can fly - then soar!
With all there is - why settle for
just a piece of sky?
Papa, I can hear you...
Papa, I can see you...
Papa, I can feel you...
Papa, watch me fly!
Papa, watch me fly!
The world is made of music
Never ending symphonies of sound surround us
Miracles of melodies abound around us too
It's a musical world
It is a musical world, and the possibilities of making music are
infinite. So with your kind indulgence and my kind permission we
would like to present a premiere performance of a new work concerto
for voice and appliances...
The world is a concerto
Each day begins with music
In the air
The world is a concerto
Oh hear the music bubbling everywhere
The whole wide world is whistling
The heavens hum along
All blending in a never ending song
The world is a concerto
A song in which each singer has a part
A classical concerto
A rhapsody that's ringing through my heart
I feel the cleansing power
I tremble breathlessly
In keeping with the sweeping melody
So for me
Make your own kind of music
Sing your own special song
It's a musical world
It's a musical world
It's a musical world
(Dimitri Tiomkin/Ned Washington)
Love me, love me, say you do
Let me fly away with you
For my love is like the wind
And wild is the wind
Give me more than one caress
Satisfy this hungriness
Let the wind blow through your heart
For wild is the wind
You touch me,
I hear the sound of violins
You kiss me,
And with your kiss the world begins
You're Spring to me,
All things to me
You're life itself
Like a leaf clings to a tree
Oh, my darling, cling to me
For we're creatures of the wind
And wild is the wind
For we're creatures of the wind
And wild is the wind, the wind
Wild is my love for you
You smiled and you were in my life
I saw my dreams there in your eyes
You touched my hand, you touched my heart
You held me through the night
It felt so right
But love, it isn't all romance
It's filled with clouds and stormy skies
We may have come too close, too fast
But if we really care
So much is there
Why let it go? Why let it go?
Why run away
When what we have is so worth fighting for
Why let it go, if ev'ry day
We can hide our feelings less
So we can love each other more
Why let it go?
I know that when I'm in your arms
There's no such thing as good goodbyes
‘Cause I believe that we have found
A love of heart and mind
So hard to find
Why let it go? Why let it go?
Don't run away
It's not easy, but it's worth the fighting for
Why let it go, if ev'ry day
We can hide our feelings less
So we can love each other more
Why did I choose you?
What did I see in you?
I saw the heart you hide so well
I saw a quiet man who had a gentle way
A way that caught me in its glowing spell
Why did I want you?
What could you offer me?
A love to last a life time through
And when I lost my heart so many years ago,
I lost it lovingly and willingly to you...
If I had to choose again,
Months later, Fanny has had a telegram from Florenz Ziegfeld; Eddie suspects
it's a job offer. Eddie and Mrs. Brice fantasize as they help Fanny get
ready for this interview:
Mrs. Brice:
Eddie, the Ziegfeld Follies!
Now she belongs to the ages!
My work is done,
My work is done,
Eddie:
Our work is done,
She doesn't need us,
She'll have cake,
We'll have crumbs.
Be careful of the stage door,
Here she comes, here she comes.
Hello,
Fanny, hello.
Mrs. Brice:
Hello, Fanny--it's me--Mama.
What do you mean--Mama who?
Eddie:
It's good to see her . . . from afar,
Mrs. Brice:
I lost a daughter but I gained a star.
Eddie:
That's Broadway!
Who taught her ev'rything she knows?
I taught her ev'rything she knows--
She sings like a bird--
(Whistles)
Yes, indeed!
But who used to stand there
And feed her the seed?
Who taught her how to pick her clothes?
Mrs. Brice:
Eddie, that I did.
Eddie:
Yeah, but who taught her her how to tap her toes?
But will she admit it?
Kid, you said it.
They all forget they know ya
When it comes to credit.
Tell me have you ever seen her take this pose?
I taught her ev'rything--
How to hoof,
And how to sing,
I taught her ev'rything she knows.
Mrs. Brice:
Wait, Eddie--she'll blame us yet.
Who taught her ev'rything she knows?
Eddie:
Let me hear it, Rosie.
Mrs. Brice:
I taught her ev'rything she knows.
Eddie:
Ain't it the truth!
Mrs. Brice:
That mischievous smile,
The devil may care,
You don't pull
Such mannerisms
Out of the air.
The men who are older might prefer
The original manufactur-er.
Both:
It hurts me to say it,
But why not be fair--
When you see her on the stage
You're seein' me there.
Mrs. Brice:
She still has trouble executin' one of those,
Eddie:
If they could have paid the price,
They'd have hired Rosie Brice,
Mrs. Brice:
Who stands after every show
Sellin' matches in the snow.
Eddie:
But in the world of grease paint,
That's the way it goes.
Both:
We taught her everything--
How to hoof and how to sing,
We taught her how to wack
A joke from here to Hackensack--ya, ha, ha, ha!
We taught her everything,
We taught her ev'rything she knows.
The sun is shining, the grass is green
The orange and palm tree sway
There’s never been such a day
In Beverly Hills, L.A.
But it’s December the twenty-fourth
And I am longing to be up North
I’m dreaming of White Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the tree tops glisten
And children listen to hear sleighbells in the snow
For I'm dreaming of a White Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
There's not a morning I begin
without a thousand questions
running through my mind.
That I don't try to find the reason
and the logic in the world
that God design.
The reason why, a bird was given wings
if not to fly, and praise the sky
with every song it sings.
What's right or wrong,
where I belong
whithin the schem of things.
And why have eyes that see
and arms that reach
unless you're meant to know there's
something more.
If not to hunger for the meaning of it all
then tell me what a soul is for.
Why have the wings unless you're meant to fly
and tell me please why have a mind
if not to question why
And tell me where,
where is it written what it is I'm meant to be
That I can't dare to have the chance to
pick the fruit of every tree
or have my share of every sweet imagined possibility.
Just tell me where, where is it written, tell me where.
If I were only meant to tend the nest
then why does my imagination sail
accross the mountains and the seas
beyond the make-believe of any fary tale
why have the thirst if not to drink the wine
and what a waste to have a taste
of things that can't be mine.
And tell me where,
where is it written what it is I'm meant to be
that I can't dare to see the meanings
in the mornings that I see
or have my share of every sweet imagined possibility.
Just tell me where, where is it written, tell me where.
Where am I going?
And what will I find?
What's in this grab bag
That I cal I my mind?
What am I doing
Alone on the shelf?
Ain't it a shame,
But no one's to blame but myself.
Which way is clear
When you've lost your way
Year after year?
Do I keep falling in love for just a kick of it?
Staggering through the thin and thick of it,
Hating each old, tired trick of it,
Know what I am,
I'm good and sick of it!
Where em I going?
Why do I care?
Run where it's foul,
Run where it's fair,
No matter where I run I meet myself there.
Looking inside me, what do I see?
Anger and hope and doubt,
What em I all about?
And where am I going?
Tell me why do I care?
No matter where I run I meet myself there
Looking inside me, what do I see?
Anger and hope and doubt
What am I al I about?
And where am I going?
Where am I going?
When on foreign shores I am
Very truly yours I am
But if inclined to play I am
Sweetheart, that's the way I am....
When in Spain for reasons I don't explain
I remain enjoying a brew
Don't deplore my fondness for fundador
You know how a fundador can lead to a few
And baby when in Rome I do as the Romans do
If per chance I'm saying farewell to France
And romance drops in from the blue
Cherchez l'amour I beg of you please endure
My taking a brief detour with somebody new
It's just that when in Rome
I do as the Romans do
And though from Italy I lied to you prettily
Oh don't think of me bitterly
But know that I'm true
Except now and then in Rome,
I get that old yearn in Rome
And naturally when in Rome
I do as the Romans do
E molto difficile resistere agli uomini di Italia
Per esempio, per esempio i biondi,
I biondi di Firenze, di Venezia
E i bruni di Palermo, di Milano...
You know what I mean?
If I write happily
Best wishes from Napoli
Don't cable me snappily
To tell me we're through
'Cause I'm once again in Rome
In somebody's den in Rome
Well honey, but when in Rome
I do as the Romans do
So just disregard the signs and the omens
When in Rome I do as the Romans do...
Veni, vidi, vince!
[speaking] Oh, I thought he kinda liked me.But all this time he was
thinking of someone else - me! Oh, these questions!
He wasn't interested in me. He was interested in me!
Oh God! Why did I have to come along? I mean, what is
so special about an English accent?
Cheerio! Oh, tallyho, doctor!
Yes, she gave me the jolly message. Oh...Nuth...
Nothing is wrong! After all, what is time?
If you miss me in this life you can catch me in the next.
Come on an' watch! 'Ay wot, well Kippered Herring! ...
I don't know why they redesigned me
He likes the way he used to find me
He likes the girl I left behind me
I mean he...I mean me...
What did I have that I don't have?
What did he like that I lost track of?
What did I do that I don't do the way I did before
What isn't there that once was there?
What have I got a great big lack of?
Something in me that
He could see that
Beckons to him no more
I' m just a victim of time
Obsolete in my prime
Out-of-date and outclassed, by my past!
What did he love that there's none of?
What did I lose the sweet warm knack of?
Wouldn't I be the late great me if I knew how?
Oh, what did I have I don't have now?
What did I have that I don't have?
What do I need big supply of?
What was the trick I did particularly well before?
What did he see that's gone in me?
What did I use that now I'm shy of?
Why is the sequel never the equal?
Why is there no encore?
Where can I go to repair?
All the wear and the tear
Till I'm once again the previous me!
What did he like that I am not like?
What was the charm that I've run dry of?
What would I give if my old know-how still knew how?
Oh what did I know?
Tell me where did it go!
What, oh, what did I have I don't have now?
The tears I'm shedding now
I hear will dry in time
The fears I'm fearing now
I hear will die in time
But while I wait around for tomorrow
Watching life drift away
What about yes What about today?
I know if I just wait
The sun will shine some day
And when it does the weather will be fine someday
And while the skies I search for tomorrow
Stay the same shade of gray
What about yes what about today?
'Till Nirvana comes What about today?
'Till Messiah comes what about today?
'Till the mountains move and oceans part
and angels sing and life can start
What about yes what about today?
I can't help wondering if tomorrow ever comes
And what's my life been lived for if it never comes
I've heard a lot of toasts to tomorrow
But none of them ever say
What about today...what about today?
'Till nirvana comes What about today
'Till messiah comes what about today
'Till the mountains move and oceans part
And Angels sing and life can start
What about yes what about today?
I can't help wondering if tomorrow ever comes
And what's my life been lived for if it never comes
I've heard a lot of toasts to tomorrow
But none of them ever say
What about yes what about........
Here we are,
Just going through the motions one more time,
You looked in my eyes but you don't see me,
Here I am, feeling like a stranger in your arms,
I touch you, I hold you, but lately I don't know you...
Something is wrong but we go on from day-to-day,
And we just pretend it all away,
We act like nothing's changed,
But in our hearts we know it's not the same...
Chorus:
Cause we're not makin' love anymore,
Baby we're not makin' love like before,
We may hold each other tight,
Say that everything's all right,
But we're not makin' love...
Remember when you couldn't wait to run into my arms,
When the love inside my heart was all you needed,
Remember when you made me wish the night would never end,
The fire, the thunder, we lived to love each other,
If ever two hearts were one, then it was yours and mine,
But that was another place in time,
Now all we have to show,
Are memories of a dream we used to know...
Chorus:
Cause we're not makin' love anymore,
Baby we're not makin' love like before,
We may hold each other tight,
Say that everything's all right,
But we're not makin' love...
When did we lose our way, we had it all,
Don't know how it all just slipped away,
But oh, can we get it back again,
Is it too late, can we try,
Just one time, ‘cause darling...
Chorus:
Cause we're not makin' love anymore,
Baby we're not makin' love like before,
We may hold each other tight,
Say that everything's all right,
But we're not makin' love...
We kiss in a shadow
We hide from the moon
Our meetings are few
And over too soon
I have dreamed
That your arms
Are lovely...
I have dreamed
What a joy
You磍l be...
I have dreamed
Every word you whisper
(We speak in a whisper)
When you磖e close to me
Close to me
Afraid to be heard
Alone in our secret
Together we sigh
For one smiling day
To be free...
How you look
In the glow of evening
(To kiss in the sunlight)
I have dreamed
And enjoyed the view
(And say to the sky... )
In these dreams
I磛e loved you so
That by now I think I know
What it磗 like to be loved by you
(Behold and believe)
I will love
Being loved by you
He will not always say
What you would have him say
But now and then he磍l say
Something wonderful
The thoughtless things he磍l do
Will hurt and worry you
Then all at once, he磍l do
Something wonderful
He has a thousand dreams
That won磘 come true
You know that he believes in them
And that磗 enough for you
You磍l always go along
Defend him when he磗 wrong
And tell him when he磗 strong
He is wonderful.
He磍l always need your love
And so he磍l get your love
A man who needs your love
Can be wonderful!

I Know Him So Well
Barbra Streisand
Nothing is so good it lasts eternally
Perfect situations must go wrong
But this has never yet prevented me
Wanting far too much for far too long.
Looking back I could have played it differently
One of few more moments who can tell
But it took time to understand the man
Now at least I know I know him well.
Wasn磘 it good? Oh so good
Wasn磘 he fine? Oh so fine
Isn磘 it madness he can磘 be mine?
But in the end he needs
A little bit more than me
More She needs security
He needs his fantasy and freedom
I know him so well.
No one in your life is with you constantly
No one is completely on your side
And though I move my world to be with him
Still the gap between us is too wide.
Looking back I could have played it differently
Could have played things some other way.
Learn about the man before I fell
I was just a little careless
But I was ever so much younger then.
I was so much younger then
Now at least I know I know him well
Wasn磘 it good? Oh so good
Wasn磘 he fine? Oh so fine
Isn磘 it madness he won磘 be mine?
Didn磘 I know how it would go?
If I knew from the start
Why am I falling apart?
Wasn磘 he fine? Isn磘 it madness
He won磘 be mine?
But in the end he needs a little bit more than me
More She needs security
He needs his Fantasy and freedom
I know him so well
It took time to understand me
I know him so well.

As If We Never Said Goodbye
Barbra Streisand
Written by: Andrew Lloyd Webber, Don Black, Christopher Hampton
I don磘 know why I磎 frightened
I know my way around here
The cardboard trees, the painted scenes, the sound here
Yes a world to rediscover,
But I磎 not in any hurry
And I need a moment
The whispered conversations in overcrowded hallways,
The atmosphere as thrilling here as always
Feel the early morning madness
Feel the magic in the making
Why everything磗 as if we never said goodbye
I磛e spent so many mornings
Just trying to resist you
I磎 trembling now
You can磘 know how I磛e missed you,
Missed the fairy-tail adventures
In this ever-spinning playground
We were young together
I磎 coming out of make-up
The lights already burning,
Not long until the camera磗 will start turning
And the early morning madness
And the magic in the making
Yes everything is as if we never said goodbye
I don磘 want to be alone that磗 all in the past,
This world has waited long enough
I磛e come home at last
And this time will be bigger,
And brighter than we knew it
So watch me fly, we all know I can do it
Could I stop my hand from shaking?
Has there ever been a moment with so much to live for?
The whispered conversations in overcrowded hallways
So much to say not just today but always
We磍l have early morning madness
We磍l have magic in the making
Yes everything is as if we never said goodbye
Oh, please don磘 ever ever make me say goodbye!!!
躡er Wipfel und Saaten
in den Glanz hinein -
wer mag sie erraten,
wer holte sie ein?
Gedanken sich wiegen,
die Nacht ist verschwiegen,
Gedanken sind frei.
Errat' es nur einer,
wer an sie gedacht
beim Rauschen der Haine,
wenn niemand mehr wacht
als die Wolken, die fliegen,
mein Lieb ist verschwiegen
und schön wie die Nacht.
You're not a dream
You're not an Angel
You're a man
I'm not a queen
I'm a woman
Take my hand
We'll make a space in the lives that we planned
And here we'll stay until it's time for you to go
Yes we're different
worlds apart
we're not the same
We laughed and played
at the start like in a game
You could have stayed outside my heart
But in you came and here you'll stay
until it's time for you to go
Don't ask why of me
Don't ask how
Don't ask forever
Love me....
Love me now.....
This love of mine
Had no beginning it had no end
I was an oak now I'm a willow
Now I can bend
And though I'll never in my life see you again
Still I'll stay until it's time for you to go...
Try To Remember -Brothers Four
Try to remember the kind of September
When life was slow and oh, so mellow
Try to remember the kind of September
When grass was green And grain was yellow
Try to remember the kind of September
When you were a tender And callow fellow
Try to remember and if you remember
Then follow, follow
Try to remember When life was so tender
That no one wept except the willow
Try to remember the kind of September
When love was an ember About to billow
Try to remember and if you remember
Then follow, follow
Deep in December It's nice to remember
Although you know The snow will follow
Deep in December It's nice to remember
The fire of September That made us mellow
Deep in December Our hearts should remember
And follow follow follow
When it all comes true
Just the way you planned
It's funny but the bells don't ring
It's a quiet thing
When you hold the world
In your trembling hand
You think you'd hear a choir singing
But it is a quiet thing
There are no exploding fireworks
Where's the roaring of the crowds
Maybe it is the strange new atmosphere
Way up here among the clouds
There won't be trumpets or balls of fire
To say he's coming,
No roman candles, no angel's choir
No sound of distant drumming,
He may not be the cavalier
Tall and graceful, fair and strong,
Doesn't matter just as long as he
Comes along
But not with trumpets or lightning flashing
Or shining armor,
He may be daring, he may be dashing
Or maybe he's a farmer,
I can wait, what's another day?
He has lots of hills to climb
And a hero doesn't come till
The nick of time
Don't look for trumpets or whistles tooting
To guarantee him,
There won't be trumpets, but sure as shooting
You'll know him when you see him
Don't know when, don't know where,
I can't even say that I care
All I know is the minute you turn
And he's suddenly there
There won't be trumpets
There are no trumpets
Who needs trumpets?
Happiness comes in on tiptoe
Well what d'ya know
It's a quiet thing
A very quiet thing
The moon and I, we know each other well
I'm safe beneath its light
It passes by, and sees but doesn't tell
The secrets of the night
Like the sweet forbidden feelings deep inside me
The longing for the lover, who's denied me
To feel him, beside me
The moon and I, pretend he's in my arms
Each night it hears me cry
And when I sleep, I dream that soon
I'll tell my love, some sunlit afternoon
What no one knows, but the moon and I
[Interlude]
And just as the sea, with its tides
I'm tied to the moon, when its full
So am I
The moon and I, pretend he's in my arms
Each night it hears us cry
And when I sleep, I dream that soon
I'll tell my love, some sunlit afternoon
What no ones knows, but the moon and I
Extra! Extra!
I’m in love
I gotta thank my luck stars above
Hurry, hurry don’t be late
I can’t wait
I gotta celebrate
It’s a fact
We got a first rate act
It’s evident when we make love
The main event
You’re my every thought
Baby
You’re my own attraction
You must be heaven’s saint
You give me so much satisfaction
You’re the one
You make life worth fighting for
You’re the one-ah!
And there is nobody quite like you
Honey, you’re the one...
You’re my everything
And it’s my conclusion
There is no sweeter scent
When you have found the right solution
Cause you’re the one
You make life worth fighting for
You’re the one
And there is nobody quite like you
You’re my number one
You’re my number one
Extra! Extra!
I’m in love
I gotta thank my luck stars above
Hurry, hurry don’t be late
I can’t wait
I gotta celebrate
It’s a fact
We got a first rate act
It’s evident when we make love
The main event
We’re the main event!
Our Father
Which art in Heaven
Hallowed be Thy name
Thy kingdom come
Thy will be done
In Earth as it is
In Heaven...
(Give us this day our Daily Bread)
And forgive our debts
As we forgive our debtors
And lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from evil
For Thine is the kingdom
And the power
And the glory
Forever...
Amen...
[Instrumental]
I hear a bird
Londonderry bird
It, well, maybe he's bringing me a cheering word
I hear a breeze
A river Shannon breeze
It, well, maybe its followed me across the sea
Then tell me please
How are things in Glocca Morra?
Is that little brook still leaping there?
Does it still run down to donny cove
Through Kenny banks, Kilcarrey and Kildare?
How are things in glocca morra?
Is that willow tree still weeping there?
Does that laddy with the twinklin' eye
Come whistling by?
And does he walk away
Sad and dreamy there
Not to see me there?
So I ask each weeping willow
And each brook along the way
And each lad that comes a whistling
To relay
How are things in Glocca Morra
This fine day?
**The mist of May is in the gloamin'
And all the clouds are holdin' still
So take my hand and let's go roamin'
Through the heather on the hill
The mornin' dew is blinking yonder
There's lazy music in the air
And all I want to do is wander
Through the heather on the hill
There may be other days as rich and rare
There may be other springs as full and fare
But they won't be the same
They'll come and go
But this I must know
*How are things in Glocca Morra?
Is that laddy calling to relay?
Can we meet in Glocca Morra
Some fine day?
Some fine day
[Instrumental]

(Although it's been said
Many times, many ways
Merry Christmas to you...)
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos
Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
We'll find it hard to sleep tonight
They know that Santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toy and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeers really know how to fly
And so I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to 92
Although it's been said
Many times, many ways
Merry Christmas to you
They know that Santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toy and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeers really know how to fly
So I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to 92
Although it's been said
Many times, many ways
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to you...
The best gift
That I ever got
Didn't really weigh a lot
It didn't have a ribbon 'round
And it sometimes made the terrible sound
The best of all it seems to me
It wasn't neath the Christmas tree
And yet, I guess I'd have to say
That it made all the other presents twice as gay
The best gift that I’ve ever known
I'd always wanted most to own
Yet in my dreams of sugar and spice
I never thought it could be so nice
The best gift that I ever get
Was sometimes dry and sometimes wet
Was usually pink but oftentimes red
As it lay so innocently in its bed
The best gift of the year to me
The one I hold most dear to me
A gift that simply drove me wild
Bird up above see what he's got
The freedom to fly and the freedom to not
De dum that's a fine kind o' freedom
Look at him go way up above
Look at the crow he's as free as the dove
De dum that's a sweet sorta freedom
He owns the clear blue
Sittin' on his sunbeam
Could be there's one beam up there for me
Bird up above man in a tree
Don't have to fly but he's gotta be free
De dum that's a fine kind o' freedom
Bird up above see what he got
The freedom to fly and the freedom to not

Have to find the thing that he's after
Free and equilibrium
De dum that's a fine kind o' freedom
Hey bird...you can show him the way bird

What do I really hear
What is in the ear of my mind
Which sounds are true and clear
And which will never be defined
The sweetest sounds I'll ever hear
Are still inside my head
The kindest words I'll ever know
Are waiting to be said
The most and entrancing side of all [should be sight, not side]
Is yet for me to see
And the dearest love in all the world
Is waiting somewhere for me
I need your sweet inspiration
I need you here on my mind
Every hour of the day
Without your sweet inspiration
The lonely hours of the night
Just don't go my way
Wanting you the way I do
I only want to be with you
And I would go to the ends of the earth
'Cause darling, to me that's what you're worth
Where you lead, I will follow
Anywhere you tell me to
If you need, need me to be with you
I will follow where you lead
If you're out on the road
Feelin' lonely and oh so cold
All you gotta do is call my name
And I'll be there on the next train
Where you lead I will follow
Anywhere you tell me to
If you need, need me to be with you
I will follow where you lead
I'd always wanted a real home
With flowers on the windowsill
But if you want to leave in New York City
Honey, you know I will
Yes I will
Yes I will
I never thought I could get satisfaction
From just one man
If anyone can keep me happy
Oh, you're the one who can
I'm gonna follow where you lead me
I'm gonna follow where you lead me
I need your sweet inspiration
I need you here on my mind
Every hour of the day
Without your sweet inspiration
The lonely hours of the night
Just don't go my way
Oh, a woman in love needs sweet inspiration
And honey that's all I ask, you know
That's all I ask from you
I gotta have your sweet inspiration
You know there just ain't no tellin'
What a satisfied woman might do
The way you call me baby, baby (such a sweet inspiration)
The way you call me darlin', darlin' (sets my heart a skating)
And if I'm out in the rain, baby (and in a bad situation)
You know I just look back in my mind
And there I find your sweet, sweet inspiration
Inspiration, oh what a power
And a bucket of power every hour of the day
I need your sweet inspiration
To go on livin', to keep on givin' this way
Wanting you the way I do (sweet, sweet)
Only want to be with you (sweet, sweet)
Gonna follow where you lead (sweet, sweet)
Baby you're just what I need
Your sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet inspiration
And honey that's all I ask, you know
That's all I ask from you
I gotta have your sweet inspiration
You know there just ain't no telling
What a satisfied woman can do
You are my sweet inspiration
Baby I can fly like a bird
When you touch me with your eyes
Flying through the sky
I've never felt the same
But I am not a bird
And I am not a plane
I'm Superman
When you love me it's easy
I can do most anything
Watch me turn around
One wing up and one wing down
I never thought I would
Fall in love for good
I'm Superman
When you love me its easy
My sweet life has just begun
I'm in love each time, I know I'll have it,
Fell into my life so I grabbed it,
There's nothing I can't do
When I'm with you
I'm Superman
Cause I knew it's easy
My sweet life has just begun
I'm in love each time and I know I'll have it
Fell into my life so I grabbed it
There's nothing I can't do
Cause I'm with you
The summer smiles
The summer knows
And unashamed
She sheds her clothes
The summer smoothes
The restless sky
And lovingly
She warms the sand
On which you lie
The summer knows
The summer's wise
She sees the doubts
Within your eyes
And so she takes
Her Summertime
Tells the moon to wait
And the sun to linger
Twist the world
Round her summer finger
Lets you see
The wonder of it all
And if you've learned
Your lesson well
There's little more
For her to tell
One last caress
It's time to dress
For fall...
And if you've learned
Your lesson well
There's little more
For her to tell
One last caress
It's time to dress
For Fall...
Grazie Papa!
Listen, I couldn't decide which song to sing next... So ..
Wait... no, no, no, it's not as free as that, I have
a choice of two, and I'll see... I'll see which one
you like best. Wait... wait... wait a minute, let's do
it fair. It's between "Stoney End" and "Second Hand
Rose". Wait, wait, wait!!!
That's too easy, now we've gotta make a choice! Wait, wait wait!
Let me do with you, right: "Second Hand Rose"'[applause]
"Stoney End" [more applause] Ah... Listen, I just gotta warn
ya that "Stoney End" I haven't sung for about two years, and so
I have the words written on the floor. So if you see me looking
on the floor... it's the words! I'll try not to look, but I mean I
haven't sung it for a long time... okay... ready, get set, go!
[STONEY END]
Is this "'Stoney End"!
Come on!
I was born from love
And my poor mother worked the mines
I was raised on the Good Book Jesus
Till I read between the lines
Now I don't believe
I want to see the whole morning
Going down the stoney end
I never wanted to go
Down the stoney end
Mama let me start all over
Cradle me, Mama, cradle me again
I can still remember him
With love light in his eyes
But the light flickered out
And parted
As the sun began to rise
Now I don't believe
I want to see the whole morning
Going down the stoney end
I never wanted to go
Down the stoney end
Mama, let me start all over
Cradle me, Mama, cradle me again
Never mind the forecast
Cause the sky has lost control
Cause the fury and the broken thunders
Come to match my ragin' soul
And I want...
I want... I want to see the whole morning
Going down the stoney end
I never wanted to go
Down the stoney end
Mamma let me start all over
Cradle me, Mamma, cradle me again
Going down the stoney end
I never wanted to go...
Going down the stoney end
I never wanted to go...
Going down the stoney end
Starting here, Starting now
When we walk, we walk together
Year by year, starting here
Starting now
When we talk
We wiII say the most with silence
When we're near
Starting here
Now when you sleep
You will dream a dream
That's free from care
For now when you wake
I'll be there so be still
Take my hand
For the greatest journey
Heaven can allow
Starting love
Starting here
Starting now
Now take my hand
For the greatest journey
Heaven can allow
Starting love
Starting here
Speak to me of love
And say what I’m longing to hear
Tender words of love
Repeat them again
I implore you speak to me of love
Whisper these words to me, dear
I adore you,
I want to hear, to hear those words that are so dear,
I want to hear you say I love you
By all the little stars above you
Your voice is like a fun caress
It thrills me till I must confess
I long to hear the voice that brings me
Such thrilling love and happiness
Parle moi d’amour
Redites moi ces mots suprêmes
Songbird sings from the heart
Each word can tear you apart
I sing - you sing along
You find your life in my song
When you need the strength to carry on
You've got me to turn to
With the songs that I sing
And the magic they bring
They've helped you be strong now
The song sets you free
But who sings to me
I'm all alone now
Who sings for songbird
Sometimes
When I'm all alone
I sing my saddest song
Lonely, and no one can see
This time the song is for me
I can touch your secret place inside
And still you don't know me
With the songs that I sing
And the magic they bring
You've learned to be strong now
My song sets you free
But who sings to me
I'm all alone now
Where is my songbird
Could be?
Who Knows?
There's something due any day
I will know, right away
Soon as it shows
It may come connanballing down
Through the sky
Gleam in its eye, bright as rose
Who knows?
It's only just out of reach
Down the block, on the beach
Under a tree
I got a feeling there's a miracle due
Gonna come true, comin' to me...
Could it be, yes it could
Something's comin', something good
If I can wait
Something's comin'
I don't know what it is
But it is gonna be great
With a click, with a shock
Phone'll jingle, door will knock
Open the latch
Something's comin'
Don't know when
But it's soon
Catch the moon
One handed catch
Around the corner
Or whistlin' down the river
Come on, deliver to me
Will it be, yes it will
Maybe just by holding still
It'll be there
Come on, something
Come on in
Don't be shy
Meet a guy
Pull up a chair
The air is humming
And something great is coming
I feel like drumming
And something great is coming
Who knows?
It's only just out of reach
Down the block, on a beach
Maybe tonight...
Maybe tonight...
Maybe tonight...!
Some day my prince will come
Some day I'll find my love
And how thrilling that moment will be
When the prince of my dreams comes to me
He'll whisper 'I love you'
And steal a kiss or two
Though he's far away
I'll find my love some day
Some day when my dreams come true
Some day I'll find my love
Someone to call my own
And I'll know her the moment we meet
For my heart will start skipping a beat
Some day we'll say and do
Things we've been longing to
Though she's far away I'll find my love some day
Some day when my dreams come true.
I'd rather be blue, thinking of you
I'd rather be blue over you
Than be happy with somebody else
I'm crazy about 'ya, without 'ya
For you I'm strong
I can't do without 'ya
Oucha-ma-goucha, don't stay too long!
I need a little ah, little ooh, little Oh
I'm knocking on wood
Honey hurry up, hurry up, hurry up
It's so hard to be good
I'd rather be blue, thinking of you
I'd rather be blue over you
Than be happy with somebody else
Will I be good? Will I be bad?
Don't be a fool, you fool
My little flat, I'm turning that
Into a Sunday school
While you're away I'm here to say
There'll be no ice man there
Singing the blues I'm gonna use
Nothing but Frigidaire
I'd rather be blue, thinking of you
I'd rather be blue over you
Than be happy with somebody else
Blue over you
I'd rather be blue over you
Than be Hap-hap-hap-hap-py
With somebody else
-Fred Fisher
It's three in the morning
You're nowhere in sight
And all that I wanted was
To be with you tonight
I've watched love get closer
And then fade away
I've seen you believe in me
I've seen you trying to stay
But what good is holding on
When you know that all
You can think about is letting go
They say if you love someone
Then set them free
If they come back again
Then in the end, it was meant to be
I thought we were lovers
I thought we were friends
I guess when reality steps in
The dreaming ends
We live for the future
We learn from the past
No matter how hard we try
Some good things never last
All you can think about is letting go
Be true to yourself, my love
That's all I ever wanted you to be
Just don't forget to smile
When you think of me
I' II reach for the stars
I have got them in sight
There's someone who really needs me
Out there in the night
We live for the future
We learn from the past
No matter how hard we try
Some good things never last....
Why can't they last?
Here we are
Helplessly snowbound
Too alone, lost in the storm
And though the wind cries all around us
Still our love keeps us warm
Here we are locked in our arms
And if the world never should find us
In our hearts, we won’t care
For so deep is our love
And if the world never should find us
In our hearts, we won’t care
We’re all very lucky, I think. the night is lovely. ’cause last night it was so humid. but tonight it’s very sort of, in a strange way, peaceful...
Silent night, holy night!
All is calm, all is bright.
Round yon virgin, mother and child
Holy infant so tender and mild,
Sleep in heavenly peace,
Sleep in heavenly peace.
Silent night, holy night!
All is calm, all is bright.
Round yon virgin, mother and child
Holy infant so tender and mild,
Sleep in heavenly peace,
Sleep in heavenly peace.
Silent night, holy night!
All is calm, all is bright.
Round yon virgin, mother and child
Holy infant so tender and mild,
Sleep in heavenly peace,
Sleep in heavenly peace.
Sing, sing a song
Sing out loud; sing out strong
Sing of good things not bad
Sing of happy not sad
Sing, sing a song
Make it simple to last your whole life long
Don't worry that it's not good enough
For anyone else to hear
Just sing, sing a song
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la...
Nobody can tell you
There's only one song worth singing
They may try and sell ya
Cause it hangs 'em up
To see someone like you
You've gotta make your own kind of music
Sing your own special song
Make your own kind of music
Even if nobody else sings along
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la...
Sing, sing a song

Sing out loud (sing out loud)
Sing out strong (sing out strong)
Sing of good things not bad!
Sing of happy, not sad
Sing, sing a song
Make it simple to last your whole life long
Don't worry that it's not good enough
For anyone else to hear
You just sing
Sing
Just sing
Even if nobody else sings along
You just sing
You just sing
Sing your song!
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la...
When you just give love
And never get love
You'd better let love depart
I know it's so, and yet I know
I can't get you out of my heart
You made me leave my happy home
You took my love and now you're gone
Since I fell for you
Love brings such misery and pain
I guess I'll never be the same
Since I fell for you
Well, it's too bad
And it's too sad
But I'm in love with you
You love me, then you snub me
But what can I do?
I'm so in love with you
I guess I'll never see the light
I get the blues most every night
Since I fell for you
I don't have plans and schemes
And I don't have hopes and dreams
I don't have anything
Since I don't have you
I don't have fond desires
And I don't have happy hours
I don't have anything
Since I don't have you
I don't have happiness
And I guess I never will have it again
When you walked out on me
In walked all misery
And it's been here since then
For I don't have love to share
I don't have one who cares
I don't have anything
Since I don't have you
Oo...Oo...Oo...
Mmm...
Barbra Streisand and Celine Dion
Celine Dion:
I'm scared
So afraid to show I care
Will he think me weak
If I tremble when I speak
Oooh, what if
There's another one he's thinking of
Maybe he's in love
I'd feel like a fool
Life can be so cruel
I don't know what to do.
Barbra Streisand:
I've there there
With my heart out in my hand
But what you must understand
You can't let the chance
To love him pass you by...
CHORUS Celine Dion and Barbra Streisand:
Tell him
Tell him that the sun and moon rise in his eyes
Reach out to him,
And whisper tender words so soft and sweet
I hold him close to feel his heartbeat
Love will be the gift you give yourself...
Barbra Streisand:
Touch him
With the gentleness you feel inside
Your love can be denied
The truth will set you free
You'll have what's meant to be
All in time you'll see
Celine Dion:
Ooh, I love him
Of that much I can be sure
I don't think I could endure
If I let him walk away
When I have so much to say
CHORUS Celine Dion and Barbra Streisand
Tell him
Tell him that the sun and moon rise in his eyes
Reach out to him,
And whisper tender words so soft and sweet
Hold him close to feel his heartbeat
Love will be the gift you give yourself...
Celine Dion:
Love is light that surely glows
In the heart of those who know
It's a steady flame that grows
Barbra Streisand:
Feed the fire with all the passion you can show
Celine Dion:
Tonight love will assume its place
Barbra:
This memory time cannot erase
Celine Dion and Barbra Streisand:
Your faith will lead love where it has to go...
Celine Dion and Barbra Streisand:
Tell him
Tell him that the sun and moon rise in his eyes
Reach out to him,
And whisper
Whisper words so soft and sweet
Hold him close to feel his heartbeat
Love will be the gift you give yourself
Mmmm... Never let him go...

Father has a business strictly second hand
Everything from toothpicks to a baby-grand
Stuff in our apartment came from father's store
Even things I'm wearing someone wore before
It's no wonder that I feel abused
I never get a thing that ain't been used
I'm wearing second hand hats
Second hand clothes
That's why they call me
Second hand Rose
Even our piano in the parlor
Father bought for ten cents on the dollar
Second hand pearls
I'm sick of second hand curls
I never get a single think that's new
Even Jake, the plumber, he's a man I adore
Had the nerve to tell me he's been married before!
Everyone knows that I'm just
Second hand Rose
From second Avenue!
From Second Avenue! Nu!
One more time!
Everyone knows that I'm just
Second hand Rose
(From second Avenue!)
From what?
Let's see if you know the fills!
Once while strooling
Through the Ritz a girl got my goat...
(She nudged her friend
And said oh look there goes
My old fur coat)
You don't need me!
Everyone knows that I'm just
Second hand Rose
From Second Avenue!
(Ya can't beat the egg-creams!)
Good! Second Avenue!
(There is more between me
And Fifth Avenue, I tell ya)
Right! Second Avenue!
Right as the rain
That falls from above
So real, so right as our love
It came like the spring
that breaks through the snow
I can't say what it may bring
I only know...I only know...
It's right to believe
Whatever gave your eyes this glow
Whatever gave my heart this song
Can't be wrong
It's right as the rain
That falls from above
And fills the world
With a blue of our love
As rain must fall
And day must dawn
This love...This love...
I'll be wearing ribbons down my back this summer
Blue & Green and streaming in the yellow sky
So if someone special comes my way this summer
He might notice me passing by
And so I'll try to make it easier to find me
In the stillness of July
Because a breeze might stir a rainbow up behind me
That might happen to catch the gentleman's eye
And he might smile and take me by the hand
This summer
Making me recall how lovely love can be
And so I will proudly wear
Ribbons down my back
Shining in my hair
I wandered into your wonderland
With eyes open wide
You turned me into your yesterday
But you will remain inside of me
Like I care for you
Oooh, I care for you
Run wild
Out on the edge of time, child
Carry your dreams away, love
No one can hold you now
For you are an island.
I may be broken but understand
My love will get by
There will be others along wthe way
My love they will try to care for me
Like I care for you
Oooh I care for you
Run wild
Out on the edge of time, child
Carry your dreams away, love
No one can hold you now
For you are an island.
Run wild
Out on the edge of time, child
Carry your dreams away, love
No one can hold you now
Barbra: Look, I've spent a lot of time working on this
Producer 1: Look, no one's gonna buy it -- no one.
Producer 2: No one in Middle America, anyway. That's for sure.
Producer 3: He's right!
Producer 1: Sweetheart, it's just not commercial!
Barbra: What is commercial?
Producer 2: It's not what's selling nowadays.
Producer 1: I mean - personally, I love it, but
Barbra (sung):Be nice, girl!
Producer 3: Nobody's into this kind of material.
Barbra (sung): You have to pay a price, girl!
Producer 2: This album needs a hit single we can push.
Barbra (sung):They like to give advice, girl!
Producer 1: The whole idea's too risky.
Barbra (sung): Don't think about it twice, girl!
Producer 2: The audience won't understand this kind of thing!
Barbra (sung):It's time to get to work!
Barbra(spoken): I disagree! Why don't you wait until you hear it?
Producer 3: This is like your old stuff!
Barbra (sung): Art isn't easy.
Producer 3: You've got to appeal to the kids.
Barbra (sung): Even when you're hot.
Producer 2: Why would you want to make an album like this anyway?
Barbra (sung): Advancing art is easy.
Producer 1: I think we ought to talk seriously about this.
Barbra (sung): Financing it is not!
Producer 2: Why take chances?
Barbra (sung): A vision's just a vision if it's only in your head!
Producer 1: Nobody respects your artistic integrity more than I do, but
Barbra (sung): If no one gets to hear it, it's as good as dead!
Producer 2: You have to think about you career!
Barbra (sung): It has to come to life!
Barbra (sung): Bit by bit, putting it together
Piece by piece, only way to make a work of art
Every moment makes a contribution
Every little detail plays a parts
Having just a vision's no solution
Everything depends on execution
Putting it together, that's what counts!
Ounce by ounce, putting in together
Small amounts, adding up to make a work of art
First of all you need a good foundation
Otherwise it's risky from the start
Takes a little cocktail conversation
But without the proper preparation
Having just a vision's no solution
Everything depends on execution
The art of making art
Is putting it together, bit by bit
Producer 2: Do we really need all these musicians?
Barbra: Link by link, making the connections, yes we do!
Drink by drink, taking every comment as it comes
Learning how to play the politician
Like you play piano, bass and drums
Otherwise you'll find your composition
Isn't gonna get much exhibition
Art isn't easy
Every minor detail is a major decision
Have to keep things in scale
Have to hold to your vision
Producer 1: Why don't we talk about this over dinner, darling?
What's a little cocktail conversation
If it gets the funds for your foundation
Every time I start to feel defensive
I remember violin is expensive!
Producer 3: Would you agree to do an interview?
Barbra: Maybe one!
Dot by dot, building up the image
Shot by shot, keeping at a distance doesn't pay
Still if you remember your objective
Not give all your privacy away
A little bit of hype can be effective
As long as you can keep it in perspective
Even when you get some recognition
Everything you do you still audition
Art isn't easy
Overnight you're a trend
You're the right combination
Then the trend's at an end
You're suddenly last year's sensation!
All they ever want is repetition
All they really like is what they know
Gotta keep a link with your tradition
Gotta learn to trust your intuition
While you re-establish your position
So that you can be on exhibit...
So that your work can be on exhibition!
Be new, girl!
They tell you till they're blue, girl!
You're new, or else you're through, girl!
And even if it's true, girl,
You do what you can do!
Bit by bit, Putting it together
Piece by piece, working on the vision night and day
All it takes is time and perseverance
With a little luck along the way
Putting in a personal appearance
Gathering supporters and adherents...
Producer 1: Well, she's an original!
Producer 3: WAS!
Barbra: Mapping out the songs but in addition
Harmonizing each negotiation
Balancing the part that's all musicians
With the part that's strictly presentation
Balancing the money with the mission
Till you have the perfect orchestration
Even if you do have the suspicion
That it's taking all your concentration
The art of making art
Is putting it together, bit by bit
Beat by beat, part by part
Sheet by sheet, chart by chart Track by track, bit by bit,
Reel by reel, pout by pout
Stack by stack, snit by snit,
meal by meal, shout by shout
Deal by deal, spat by spat
Shpiel by shpiel, doubt by doubt
Quiet night
And all around the calm and boring weather
Quiet night
No other sound, but hearts that beat together
You can almost hear the things I’m thinking
You can almost see my heart take flight...
Whisper low
But don’t say no
Wish I was a Kellogg's corn flake
Floatin' in my bowl takin' movies
Relaxing a while ...livin' in style
Talkin' to a raisin who occasionally plays L.A.
Casually glancing at his toupee
Wish I was an English Muffin
Bout to make the most out of a toaster
I'd ease myself down
Comin' up brown
I prefer a boysenberry more than any ordinary jam
I'm a citizen for boysenberry jam fans
If I become a famous lady
Would you put my photo on your piano?
From Mary Jane.....best wishes to Martin...
Ooooh South California
Oh Roger draft dodger
Leavin by the basement door
Everybody knows what he's tippe-toein'
Down there for
Wish I was a Kellogg's corn flake
Floatin' in my bowl
Takin' movies
Relax in a whirl livin' in style...
I’ve never been wrong
But you’ re the only one I trust to show me the way
I always hear your voice
And in my dreams I hear you calling my name...
What is it about you?
Some kind of light shines from your face
And I can’t turn away
I’m like a prisoner captured by your eyes
I’ve been taken and I’ve been hypnotized
I’m like a prisoner captured by your eyes
I’ve been taken and I’ve been hypnotized
And your eyes say everything
You want to keep me here forever
I can’t escape
One minute’s so sincere
Then you completely turn against me and I’m afraid
You don’t have to say you love me
’causa if you want me, I’ll stay
’cause I can turn away
I’m like a prisoner captured by your eyes
I’ve been taken, taken by surprise
I’m like e prisoner captured by your eyes
I’ve been taken and I’ve been hypnotized
I’m like a prisoner...
I loves you Porgy
Don't let him take me
Don't let him handle me
And drive me mad
If you can keep me,
I wants to stay here
With you forever and I'd be glad
I loves you Porgy
Don't let him take me
Don't let him handle me
With his hot hand
If you can keep me,
I wants to stay here
With you forever
I got my man
Someday, I know he's comin' back
To call me...
He's gonna handle me and hold me so
It's gonna be like dyin', Porgy,
Deep inside me,
But when he calls I know I have to go
Porgy, I's your woman now
I is, I is...
And I ain't never goin' nowhere
‘Less you shares the fun
Want no wrinkle on your brow,
No how
Because the sorrow of the past is all
Done, done
My Porgy,
Now the real happiness is just begun
There's no wrinkle on my brow
No how
And I ain't goin'
You hear me saying, if you ain't goin',
With you I'm stayin'
Porgy, I's yo' woman now,
I's yours forever...
Mornin' time and evenin' time
And summer time and winter time
Mmm...
Oh my Porgy...
My man Porgy...
From this minute I'm tellin' you,
I keep this vow...
Porgy, I's yo' woman now!

People who need people
Are the luckiest people in the world,
We're children, needing other
children
And yet letting our grown-up pride
Hide all the need inside,
Acting more like children
Than children.
Lovers are very special people,
They're the luckiest people
In the world.
With one person, one very special person
A feeling deep in your soul
Says you were half,
Now you're whole.
No more hunger and thirst
But first be a person
Who needs people.

[Speaking]
At this time I should like very much to thank my wonderful conductor.
And what he does is this...It's sort of... It reminds me of an old
Mae West picture...uh... I don't know how I made this association,
but...you see, he makes this orchestra sound as if there were 70 pieces.
And it reminds me the scene where Mae was teaching in a classroom
and she said: [imitating Mae West's voice] 'One an' one is two...two
an' two is four... four an' four makes ten, if you have worked right!'
And I would also like to say that I'm thrilled and delighted...I can't
believe there's 128,000 people out there... 'FEENTASTIC!' Ah! Ah!
Thank you... But I would like to thank you, you lovely bunch of...
People, people who need people,

Mmm. . .
One less bell to answer
One less egg to fry
One less man to pick up after
I should be happy
But all I do is cry, cry
No more laughter
(Oh I should be happy)
Oh why did he go
I only know that since he left
My life's so empty
Though I try to forget
It just can't be done
Each time the doorbell rings
I still run
I don't know how in the world
To stop thinking of him
(I should be happy)
'Cause I still. love him so
I end each day the way I started
Crying my heart out
(Start and end each day crying)
One less bell to answer
One less egg to fry
One less man
(One less man)
To pick up after
No more laughter, no more laughter
Since he went away
(Since he went away)
Since he went away
Mmm... a chair is still a chair
Even when there's no one sitting there
But a chair is not a house
And a house is not a home
When there' s no one there
To hold you tight and no one there
You can kiss goodnight
A room is still a room
Even when there's nothing ever gloom
But a room is not a house
And a house is not a home
When the two of us are far apart
And one of us has a broken heart
Now and then I call your name
And suddenly your face appears
But it's just a crazy game
And when it ends, it ends in tears
So darling, have a heart
Don't let one mistake keep us apart
Oh, I'm not meant to live alone
Turn this house into a home
When I climb the stairs and turn the key
Oh please, be there still in love with me
One less bell to answer
Each time the doorbell rings I still run
One less egg to fry
(I got one less man)
To pick up after
(No more laughter)
No more laughter
No more laughter...
Since he went away,
(Since he went away)
Since he went away...
All I do is cry...
Millions of stars placed in the skys
By One God
Millions of us lift up our eyes
To One God
So many children calling to him
By many a diffrent name
One father
Loving each the same
Many the ways all of us pray
To one god
Many the path
Winding their way
To One God
Brothers and sisters there are no strangers
After his work is done
For your God and my God
Are one
So many children calling outloud
By many a different name
One father
Loving each the same
Many the ways all of us pray
To one God
Many the paths winding their way
To One God
Brothers and sisters there were no strangers
After the world was done
Our God, yes your God, and My God
ARE ONE!!!!!

When love comes so strong,
There is no right or wrong,
Your love is,
Your love is,
Your love is,
Your life!
One day
The fields will be green
And one day
The skies will be blue
And one day
The rivers will be bright silver ribbons
Running round the hills
Quiet hills
You'll see
One day
The rains will be soft
And one day
The winds will be sweet
Oh sweeter than springtime
And the whisper of lilac, apple, pine and pear
Will fill the air
And one day
A child full of wonder
Won't fear the dark sound of thunder
No dreams of danger
When a soldier is a stranger
>From a distant time
Distant world
On that morning
You stand
with tomorrow
Safe in your hand
On a clear day
Rise and look around you
And you'll see who you are
On a clear day
How it will astound you
That the glow of your being
Outshines every star
You'll feel part of
Every mountain, sea and shore
You can hear from far and near
A world you've never, never heard before
And on a clear day
On that clear day
You can see forever, and ever, and ever, and ever more
Non, c'est rien

She's mother, she's sister,
She's lover.
She's the wonder of wonders
No man can deny.
So why would he change her?
She's loving- she's tender-
She's woman-
So am I.
Why do you grieve?
Try and believe
Life is always sunshine
When the heart beats true
Banish your fears
Smile through your tears
When you're sad
It makes me feel the same as you...
Come to me my melancholy baby
Cuddle up and don't be blue
All your fears are foolish fancy, maybe
You know, dear, that I'm in love with you;
Every cloud must have a silver lining
Wait until the sun shines through
Come on and smile, my honey dear,
While I kiss away each tear
No wonder she suits him,
She never disputes him.
The conversation's not too exciting
But oh, what a change it must be!
To spend an evening where there's no conversation
Must be a relief after me!
And thought there's nothing much to challenge your mind here,
Who cares when the food's so delicious?
Not to mention these beautiful dishes-
A matched set-
From France, yet.
No wonder he loves her,
No wonder to me
With ribbons and laces
In all the right places,
I must admit it's all very pleasant
And this is a comf'table room.
And if he likes the smell of lilacs and roses
Then maybe he likes her perfume.
And thought her silky hair
And milky complexion are nice
Still they're not that distracting.
So what accounts for the way he's been acting?
Her softness?
Her sweetness?
How could he resist her
And why would he try?
No wonder he wants her.
He needs her-
He loves her-
No wonder-
So would I!
She’s mother, she’s sister,
She’s lover.
She’s the wonder of wonders
No man can deny.
So why would he change her?
She’s loving- she’s tender-
She’s woman-
So am i.
No more tears (enough is enough)
Barbra:
It’s raining,
It’s pouring,
My love life is boring me to tears,
After all these years.
Donna:
No sunshine,
No moonlight,
No stardust,
No sign of romance.
We don’t stand a chance.
Barbra:
I always dreamed
I’d find the perfect lover.
But he turned out to be
Like every other man I loved,
I loved.
Both:
Raining (raining)
Pouring (pouring)
There’s nothing left for us here.
And we won’t waste another tear...
Donna:
If you’ve had enough,
Don’t put up
With his stuff,
Don’t you do it.
Barbra:
Now, if you’ve had your fill,
Get the check,
Pay the bill,
You can do it.
Donna:
Tell him to just get out,
Barbra:
Nothing left to talk about.
Donna:
Pack his raincoat, show him out,
Both:
Just look him in the eye and simply shout:
Enough is enough
I can’t go on,
I can’t go on no more no.
Enough is enough
I want him out,
I want him out that door now.
Enough is enough (ooh, owww)
Enough is enough
That’s enough, (ooh yeah)
Donna:
If you’ve reached the end,
Don’t pretend
That it’s right,
When it’s over.
Barbra:
(it’s over)
If the feeling is gone,
Don’t think twice
Just move on,
Get it over. (over, over)
Both:
Tell him to just get out,
Say it clearly,
Spell it out:
Enough is enough is enough
I can’t go on,
I can’t go on no more no.
Enough is enough is enough
I want him out,
I want him out that door now.
Enough is enough (ooh, owww)
Enough is enough
That’s enough (ooh)
Barbra:
I always dreamed I’d find
The perfect lover.
But he turned out to be
Like every other man I loved. (I had no choice from the start)
I loved, (I’ve gotta listen to my heart)
I loved. (tearing us apart)
Both:
Enough is enough is enough
I can’t go on,
I can’t go on no more no.
Enough is enough is enough
I want him out,
I want him out that door now.
Enough is enough (ooh, owww)

That’s enough (ooh, yeah)
No more tears...
No more tears (no more tears)
No more tears (no more tears)
No more tears (no more tears)
No more tears (no more tears)
I’ve had it, (no more tears)
You’ve had it,
She’s had it. (no more tears)
He’s had it. (no more tears)
She’s had it.
He’s had it.
I’ve had it. (no more tears)
I’ve had it.
He’s had it.
She’s had it.
Donna:
I always dreamed
I’d find the perfect lover
Barbra:
But he turned out to be
Like every other man I loved
Both:
I had no choice from the start
Listen to me, I’ve gotta listen to my heart
Tearing us apart...
Enough is enough is enough
I can’t go on,
I can’t go on no more no.
Enough is enough is enough
I want him out,
I want him out that door now.
Goodbye mister,
Goodbye.
Goodbye mister.
Goodbye sugar.
It’s raining,
It’s pouring,
There’s nothing left for us here.
And we won’t waste another tear... (no more tears)

Your toy balloon has sailed in the sky
But now it must fall to the ground
Now you're sad eyes reveal
Just how badly you feel
'Cause there is no easy way down
The view from the cliffs
Must have been exciting
(Exiting, exciting, exciting)
And up to the peaks you were bound
Now you're stranded all alone
And the path leads unknown
And there is no easy way down
No it isn't very easy
(No easy way down)
When you're left on your own
(No easy way down)
No it isn't very easy
When each road you take
Is one more mistake
And there's no one to break your fall
And lead you back home
Oh, oooh. . .
We all like to climb to the heights, I know
Where our fantasy world can be found
But you must know in the end
When it's time to descend
There is no easy way down
You know, you're gonna find
There is no easy way down
No it isn't very easy (No easy way down)
When you're left on your own (No easy way down)
No it isn't very easy (No easy way down)
When you're left on your own (No easy way down)
No it isn't very easy (No easy way down)
He is pleased with me!
My Lord and Master
Declares that he's pleased with me-
What does he mean?
What does he know of me,
This lord and master?
When he has looked at me
What has he seen?
Something young
Soft and slim,
Painted cheek,
Tap'ring limb,
Smiling lips
All for him,
Eyes that shine
Just for him-
So he thinks...
Just for him!
Though the man may be
My Lord and Master,
Though he may study me
As hard as he can,
The smile beneath my smile
He'll never see
He'll never know
I love another man
He'll never know
Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favourite things
Cream colored ponies and crisp apple struddels
Doorbells and sleighbells and schnitzel with noodels
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favourite things
Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snow flakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that turn into springs
These are a few of my favourite things
When the dog bites, when the bee stings, when I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my favourite things
Like silver white winters that melt into springs
For those who fancy coloring books,
As many people do,
Here's a new one for you,
A most unusual coloring book,
The kind you seldom see,
Crayons ready, crayons set,
Begin to color me.
These are the eyes that watched her
as she walked away,
Color them gray,
This is the heart that felt she
would always be true,
Color it blue,
These are the arms that held her,
and touched her, then lost her somehow,
Color them empty now,
This is the tie I wore
until he came between,
Color it green,
This is the room I sleep in
and walk in and weep in
and hide in so no one can see,
Color it lonely now,
This is the girl,
the one I depended upon,
The sky is black
The ground is red
The streets of hate
Are charred and dead
The war stand out
Against the sky
And crowds appear
To wonder why
The morning after
We ask for right questions
The morning after
We make the suggestions
We've gotta make changes
When I'm going to wait
But the morning after is too late
The shell that's left is still a cage
The flames have not consumed the rage
And men who souls are trapped and slumped
Will wait until the next time comes
The morning after
We ask for right questions
The morning after
We make the suggestions
We gotta make changes
When I’m going to wait
But the morning after
Es war, als hätt' der Himmel
die Erde still geküsst,
dass sie im Blütenschimmer
von ihm nur träumen müsst.
Die Luft ging durch die Felder,
die Ähren wogten sacht,
es rauschten leis' die Wälder,
so sternklar war die Nacht.
Und meine Seele spannte
weit ihre Flügel aus,
flog durch die stillen Lande,
This is a dream Melinda
Just a mirage, so they say
This whole affair they all declare
Was dreamed every step of the way
You're a mere dream, Melinda
Out for a gaily loose spin
Telling me lies before my eyes
of days that never have been
There's no Melinda, they say for sure
But don't go Melinda
I know and you know
That you're no mere dream, Melinda
Gone when the dawn gleam is through
You and I know that long ago
before the dream there was you
Nights are lone since you went away
I think about you
All through the day
My buddy... My buddy...
Nobody quiet so true
Miss your voice, the touch of your hand
Just long to know that you understand
My buddy... My buddy...
Your buddy misses you
It's over
All over
And soon somebody else
Will make a fuss about you
But how about me?
It's over
All over
And soon somebody else
Will tell the friends
About you
But how about me
He'll find somebody new
But what am I to do
I'd still remember you
When you have forgotten me
And maybe a baby
Will climb upon your knee
And put his arms around you
But how about me
My buddy... Your buddy
Misses you...
I'm wearing second hand shoes
Second hand hose
All the girls hand me
Their second hand clothes
Even my pajamas when I darn 'em
Have somebody else's
Initials on 'em
Second hand rings
Mmm... Second hand things
I never get what other girlies do
Once while strolling
Through the Ritz a girl got my goat...
She nudged her friend
And said oh look there goes
My old fur coat
I don't believe in
Frettin' and grievin'
Why mess around with strife
I never was caught out
To step and strut out
Give me the simple life
Some find a pleasant dining on pheasants
Those things roll off my comb
Just serve me tomatoes
And mashed potatoes
Any place I hang my hat is home
Oh, I got plenty o' nothin'
And nothin's plenty for me
I got no car, I got no mule
I got no misery
Don't you see
I got no lock on my door
That's okay with me
Cause the things that I prize
Like the stars in the skies are all free
I got plenty o' nothin'
And nothin's plenty for me
Once I built a railroad
Made it run,
Made it race
Against time
Once I built a railroad
Now it's done
Brother can you spare a dime?
Say don't you remember
They called me Al
It was Al all the time
Say don't you remember
I'm your pal
Buddy can you spare a dime?
Nobody knows you
When you're down and out
In your pocket's
Not one penny
And your friends
Well, you haven't any
Soon as you get on your feet again
Everybody
Everybody
Is your long lost friend
It's mighty strange
Without a doubt
But nobody knows you
When you're down and out
Oh every one knows
That I'm just second hand Rose
>From Second Avenue
Ya can't beat the egg-creams
>From Second Avenue
There is more between me
And Fifth Avenue
Than three blocks
I tell ya
Second Avenue
The flowers in spring
The robins that sing
The sun beam that shines
They're yours, they're mine
And love can come to anyone
Because the best things in life are free
*Animal crackers in my soup, monkeys and rabbits, look a loupe!
Gosh oh Gee, but I have fun swallowing animals one by one
In every bowl of soup I see lions and tigers watching me
I'll make ‘em jump right through a hoop
'Cause animal crackers in my soup!
When I get hold of the big bad wolf
I just push him under to drown
Then I bite him in a millions bits and I gabble him right down
*I love your funny face your sunny, funny face
Though you're no handsome Henry
Four words I'd not replace, your sunny funny face...
*That face, that wonderful face
It shines, it glows all over the place
And how I love to watch it change expressions
Each look becomes the prize of my possession
I love your eyes, your cheeks, your hair
They're in a class beyond compare
It's the loveliest face that one could see...
Were thine that special face
Were thine the forms so live so splendor
Were thine the arms so warm so tender
Were thine the kiss divine
*I was so really independent and content before we met
Surely I can always be that way again and yet
I've grown accustomed to the trace of something in the air
Accustomed to the wonderful fabulous marvelous glorious...
*Let's face the music and dance...
*You made the cope and vest fit the best
You made the linen nice and strong
But Sam, you made the pants too long
You made the pick lapel look so oh swell
So who am I to say you're wrong?
But Sam, you made the pants too long!
They got the belt and they got suspenders
So what can they lose?
What good a belt and what good suspenders
When the pants are hanging over the shoes
You feel the winter breeze up and down the knees
The belt is where the tie belongs
But Sam, Sam, Sam, you made the pants too long!
*Pussycat, pussycat, I love you, yes, I do
You and your pussycat...
*We have so much in common Yes I do
It's a phenomenon
We could pull our resources by joining forces
From now on...
*It's spring again
And birds on the wing again
Start to sing again that old melody
*I wanted the music to play on forever
Have I stayed too long at the fair?
I wanted the clown to be constantly clever
Have I stayed too long at the fair?
I brought me blue ribbons to tie up my hair
But I couldn't find anybody to care
The merry-go-round is beginning to slow now
Have I stayed too long at the fair?
There is nothing to win,
And there's no one to want me...
*Look at that face, just look at it
Look at that fabulous face of yours
I knew first look I took at it
This was the face that the world adores
Look at these eyes as wise and as deep as the sea
Look at that nose, it shows what a nose should be
As for ,your smile it's lyrical
Friendly and warm as the summer's day
Your face is just a miracle
Where could I ever find words to say
The way that it makes me happy
Whatever the time or place
I will find in no book
What I will find when I look at your face!

I can see Martina as a child of three
In the sad seclusion of her nursery
Go outside, Martina! Go outside and play
Never speak, Martina, put your toys away
So her days were loveless
And her nights the same
When she cried for someone
No one ever came...
Is it any wonder that her eyes grew cold?
That she loved nobody and her young heart grew old
All the children crying from the age of three
I must try to make the man love me
Make the man love me now
By and by I will make the man happy
I know how
He must see how badly I want him
Want him just as he is
And may I say that should the man ask me
I’ll be his
Can I tel1 the man
Just how dearly blessed we would be
AII the beauty I see so clearly
Oh why can’t he?
So I pray to heaven above me
Pray until day grows dim
For a way to make the man love me
As I love him
For a way to make the make love me
Some day he'll come along,
The man I love
And he'll be big and strong,
The man I love
And when he comes my way,
I'll do my best to make him stay.
He'll look at me and smile, I'll understand,
And in a little while he'll take my hand
And, though it seem absurd,
I know we both won't say, we won't say a word.
Maybe I shall meet him Sunday,
Maybe Monday maybe not.
Still I'm sure to meet him one day,
Maybe Tuesday will be my good news day...
We'll build a little home just meant for two,
From which I'll never roam,
Who would, would you?
And so all else above
I'm waiting for the man I love.
Maybe I shall meet him on Sunday,
Maybe Monday maybe not...
Still I'm sure to meet him one day,
Maybe Tuesday will be my good news day.
We'll build a little home just meant for two,
From which I'll never, ever roam,
Who would, would you?
And so all else above I'm waiting for...
The man...
I...
