We've only just begun to live, White lace and promises A kiss for luck and we're on our way. And yes, we've just begun. Before the rising sun we fly, So many roads to choose We start out walking and learn to run. And yes, we've just begun. Sharing horizons that are new to us, Watching for signs along the way, Talking it over just the two of us, Working together day to day Together. |
And when the evening comes we smile, So much of life ahead We'll find a place where there's room to grow, And yes, we've just begun. Sharing horizons that are new to us, Watching for signs along the way, Talking it over just the two of us, Working together day to day Together. Together. And when the evening comes we smile, So much of life ahead We'll find a place where there's room to grow, And yes, we've just begun. We've only just begun. |

They asked me how I knew my true love was true I of course replied "Something here inside cannot be denied." They said "Someday you'll find all who love are blind. When your heart's on fire, you must realize smoke gets in your eyes." So I chaffed them and I gaily laughed to think they could doubt my love Yet today my love has flown away, I am without my love Now laughing friends deride tears I cannot hide So I smile and say "When a lovely flame dies, smoke gets in your eyes." |

(Doc Pomus/Mort Shuman) Each time we have a quarrel, it almost breaks my heart, Cause I'm so afraid that we will have to part, Each night I ask the stars up above, Why must I be a teenager in love? One day I feel so happy, next day I feel so sad. I guess I'll learn to take the good with the bad. Cause each night I ask the stars up above, Why must I be a teenager in love? I cried a tear for nobody but you, I'll be a lonely one, if you should say we're through. Well, if you want to make me cry, that won't be so hard to do. And if you should say goodbye, I'll still go on loving you. Each night I ask the stars up above, Why must I be a teenager in love? I cried a tear for nobody but you, I'll be a lonely one, if you should say we're through. Well, if you want to make me cry, that won't be so hard to do. And if you should say goodbye, I'll still go on loving you. Each night I ask the stars up above, Why must I be a teenager in love? Why must I be a teenager in love? Why must I be a teenager in love? |

(from Sweet Charity) If they could see me now, that little gang of mine, I'm eating fancy chow and drinking fancy wine. I'd like those stumble bums to see for a fact, The kind of top drawer, first rate chums I attract. All I can say is 'Wow', look at where I am Tonight I landed 'Pow' right in a pot of jam, What a set up, holy cow they'd never believe it, If my friends could see me now. |
|
(from Toy Story) You've got a friend in me You've got a friend in me When the road looks rough ahead And you're miles and miles From your nice warm bed You just remember what your old pal said You've got a friend in me Yeah, you've got a friend in me You've got a friend in me You've got a friend in me You've got troubles, and I got 'em too There isn't anything I wouldn't do for you We stick together and see it through 'Cause you've got a friend in me You've got a friend in me Some other folks might be a little bit smarter than I am, bigger and stronger too. But none of them will ever love you the way I do, It's me and you. And as the years go by, Our friendship will never die. |

Just hear those sleigh bells jingle-ing Ring ting tingle-ing too Come on, it's lovely weather For a sleigh ride together with you Outside the snow is falling And friends are calling "You Hoo" Come on, it's lovely weather For a sleigh ride together with you Giddy-yap giddy-yap giddy-yap let's go Let's look at the snow We're riding in a wonderland of snow Giddy-yap giddy-yap giddy-yap it's grand Just holding your hand We're gliding along with the song Of a wintry fairy land Our cheeks are nice and rosy And comfy cozy are we We're snuggled up together like two Birds of a feather would be |
Let's take the road before us And sing a chorus or two Come on, it's lovely weather For a sleigh ride together with you There's a birthday party at the home of Farmer Gray It'll be the perfect ending of a perfect day We'll be singing the songs we love to sing without a single stop At the fireplace while we watch the chestnuts pop Pop! Pop! Pop! There's a happy feeling nothing in the world can buy When they pass around the coffee and the pumpkin pie It'll nearly be like a picture print by Currier and Ives These wonderful things are the things We remember all through our lives Just hear those sleigh bells jingle-ing Ring ting tingle-ing too Come on, it's lovely weather For a sleigh ride together with you Outside the snow is falling And friends are calling "You Hoo" Come on, it's lovely weather For a sleigh ride together with you |

You walked into the party Like you were walking onto a yacht Your hat strategically dipped below one eye Your scarf it was apricot You had one eye in the mirror As you watched yourself gavotte And all the girls dreamed that they'd be your partner They'd be your partner, and You're so vain You probably think this song is about you You're so vain I'll bet you think this song is about you Don't you? Don't you? You had me several years ago When I was still quite naive Well, you said that we made such a pretty pair And that you would never leave But you gave away the things you loved And one of them was me I had some dreams they were clouds in my coffee Clouds in my coffee, and You're so vain You probably think this song is about you You're so vain I'll bet you think this song is about you Don't you? Don't you? <instrumental interlude > |
I had some dreams they were clouds in my coffee Clouds in my coffee, and You're so vain You probably think this song is about you You're so vain I'll bet you think this song is about you Don't you? Don't you? Well, I hear you went up to Saratoga And your horse naturally won Then you flew your Lear jet up to Nova Scotia To see the total eclipse of the sun Well, you're where you should be all the time And when you're not, you're with Some underworld spy or the wife of a close friend Wife of a close friend, and You're so vain You probably think this song is about you You're so vain I'll bet you think this song is about you Don't you? Don't you? You're so vain You probably think this song is about you You're so vain You probably think this song is about you You're so vain You probably think this song is about you You're so vain (so vain) I'll bet you think this song is about you Don't you? Don't you? Don't you? |

If you want this choice position, Have a cheery disposition, Rosy cheeks, no warts, Play games, all sorts. You must be kind, You must be witty, Very sweet and fairly pretty. Take us on outings, give us treats, Sing songs, bring sweets. Never be cross or cruel, Never give us castor oil, or gruel. Love us as a son and daughter And never smell of barley water. If you won't scold or dominate us, We will never give you cause to hate us. We won't hide your spectacles so you can't see, Put toads in your bed, or pepper in your tea. Hurry Nanny, Many thanks, Sincerely, Jane and Michael Banks. |

Everybody loves a clown, so why don't you?

I feel pretty, Oh so pretty, I feel pretty and witty and bright, And I pity Any girl who isn't me tonight. I feel charming, Oh so charming, It's alarming how charming I feel, And so pretty That I hardly can believe I'm real. See the pretty girl in that mirror there: Who can that attractive girl be? Such a pretty face, Such a pretty dress, Such a pretty smile, Such a pretty me! I feel stunning And entrancing, Feel like running and dancing for joy, For I'm loved By a pretty wonderful boy! |
I feel pretty, Oh so pretty That the city should give me its key. A committee Should be organized to honor me. I feel dizzy, I feel sunny, I feel fizzy and funny and fine, And so pretty, Miss America can just resign! See the pretty girl in that mirror there: Who can that attractive girl be? Such a pretty face, Such a pretty dress, Such a pretty smile, Such a pretty me! I feel stunning And entrancing, Feel like running and dancing for joy, For I'm loved By a pretty wonderful boy! |

Gonna find my baby Gonna hold him tight Gonna grab some Afternoon Delight My motto's always been when it's right it's right Why wait until the middle of a cold dark night When everything's a little clearer in the light of day And we know the night is always gonna be here anyway Think of you working up an appetite Looking forward to a little Afternoon Delight Rubbing sticks and stones together make the sparks ignite And the thought of rubbing you is getting so exciting Skyrockets in flight Afternoon Delight Afternoon Delight Afternoon Delight |
Started out this morning feeling so polite I always thought a fish could not be caught who didn't bite But you got some bait a'waitin and I think I might Like nibbling a little Afternoon Delight Skyrockets in flight Afternoon Delight Afternoon Delight Afternoon Delight Be waiting for me baby when I come around We can make a lot of luvin' fore the sun go down Think of you is working up an appetite Looking forward to a little Afternoon Delight Rubbing sticks and stones together makes the sparks ignite And the thought of rubbing you is getting so exciting Skyrockets in flight Afternoon Delight Afternoon Delight Afternoon Delight Afternoon Delight Afternoon Delight |

This magic moment, so different and so new Was like any other until I kissed you And then it happened, it took me by surprise I knew that you felt it too, by the look in your eyes Sweeter than wine Softer than the summer night Everything I want, I have Whenever I hold you tight This magic moment while your lips are close to mine Will last forever, forever till the end of time Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm < instrumental stanza-strings> Sweeter than wine Softer than the summer night Everything I want, I have Whenever I hold you tight This magic moment while your lips are close to mine Will last forever, forever till the end of time Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh Magic moment Magic moment Magic moment FADE |

<instrumental piano stanza> People, 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 People who need people Are the luckiest people in the world |

Here you come again Just when I've begun to get myself together You waltz right in the door Just like you've done before And wrap my heart 'round your little finger. Here you come again Just when I'm about to make it work without you You look into my eyes and lie those pretty lies And pretty soon I'm wonderin' how I came to doubt you. All you have to do is smile that smile And there go all my defenses Leave it up to you and in a little while You're messin' up my mind and fillin' up my senses. |
Here you come again Lookin' better than a body has a right to And shakin' me up so that all I really know Is here you come again And here I go (here you come again) All you have to do is smile that smile And there go all my defenses Leave it up to you and in a little while You're messin' up my mind and fillin' up my senses. Here you come again Lookin' better than a body has a right to And shakin' me up so that all I really know Is here you come again And here I go (here you come again) And here I go (here you come again) And here I go (here you come again) And here I go. |
