MR. WONDERFUL
(Jerry Bock, George David Weiss & Larry Holofcener)
Why this felling? Why this glow?
Why the thrill when you say hello?
It’s a strange and tender magic you do
Mister Wonderful, that’s you.
Why this trembling when you speak
Why this joy when you touch my cheek?
I must tell you what my heart knows is true
Mister Wonderful, that’s you.
And why this longing to know your charms
To spend forever here in your arms
Oh there’s much more I could say
But the words keep slipping away
And I’m left with only one point of view
Mister Wonderful, that’s you
One more thing, then I’m through
Mister Wonderful, Mister Wonderful
Mister Wonderful, I love you.

Your Song
(Bernie Taupin/Elton John)
It’s a little bit funny this feeling inside
I’m not one of those who can easily hide
I don’t have much money but boy if I did
I’d buy a big house where we both could live
If I was a sculptor, but then again, no
Or a man who makes potions in a traveling show
I know it’s not much but it’s the best I can do
My gift is my song and this one’s for you
And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it’s done
I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind
That I’ll put down in words
How wonderful life is while you’re in the world
I sat on the roof and kicked of the moss
Well a few of the verses well they’ve got me quite cross
But the sun’s been quite kind while I wrote this song
It’s for people like you that keep it turned on
So excuse me forgetting but these things I do
You see I’ve forgotten if theyre green or they’re blue
Anyway the thing is what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I’ve ever seen
And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it’s done
I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind
That I’ll put down in words
How wonderful life is while you’re in the world
I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind
That I’ll put down in words
How wonderful life is while you’re in the world

Don’t
Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller
Don’t, don’t, that’s what you say
Each time that I hold you this way
When I feel like this and I want to kiss you
Baby, don’t say don’t
Don’t, don’t leave my embrace
For here in my arms is you place
When the night grows cold and I want to hold you
Baby don’t say don’t
If you think that this is just a game
I’m playing
If you think that I don’t mean
Every word I’m saying
Don’t, don’t, don’t, don’t
Don’t feel that way
I’m your love and yours I will stay
This you can believe I will never leave you
Heaven knows I won’t
Baby don’t say don’t

Reminiscing
Graeham Goble
Friday night it was late
I was walking you home
We got down to the gate
And I was dreaming of the night
Would it turn out right?
How to tell you, boy
I wanna build my world around you
Tell you that it’s true
I wanna make you understand
I’m talking about a lifetime plan
That’s the way it began
We were hand in hand
Glen Miller’s band
Was better than before
We yelled and screamed for more
And those Porter tunes
Made us dance across the room
It ended all too soon
And on the way back home
I promised you’d never be alone
Hurry don’t be late
I can’t hardly wait
I said to myself when we’re old
We’ll go dancing in the dark
Walking through the park
And reminiscing
Friday night it was late
I was walking you home
We got down to the gate
And I was dreaming of the night
Would it turn out right?
Now as the years roll on
Each time we hear our favorite song
The memories come along
Older times we’re missing
Spending the hours reminiscing
Hurry don’t be late
I can’t hardly wait
I said to myself when we’re old
We’ll go dancing in the dark
Walking through the park
And reminiscing

The Way We Were

The Way We Were
(Alan Bergman, Marilyn Bergman and Marvin Hamlisch)
Mem’ries
Light the corners of my mind
Misty water-colored memories
Of the way we were
Scattered pictures,
Of the smiles we left behing
Smiles we gave to one another
For the way we were
Can it be that it was all so simple then?
Or has time re-written every line?
If we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me, would we? Could we?
Mem’ries, may be beautiful and yet
What’s too painful to remember
We simply chose to forget
So it’s the laughter
We will remember
Whenever we remember
The way we were
Solo:
Repeat from: Can it be that it was..

I Started A Joke
Barry, Robin, and Maurice Gibb
I started a joke which started the whole world crying
But I didn't see that the joke was on me oh no
I started to cry which started the whole world laughing
Oh If I'd only seen that the joke was on me
I looked at the skies running my hands over my eyes
And I fell out of bed hurting my head from things that I said
'Till I finally died which started the whole world living
Oh If I'd only seen that the joke was on me
I looked at the skies running my hands over my eyes And I fell out of bed hurting my head from things that I said 'Till I finally died which started the whole world living Oh If I'd only seen that the joke was on me Oh no that the joke was on me

Fool That I Am
(Floyd Hunt)
Fool that I am,
For falling in love with you.
And a, fool that I am,
For thinking you loved me, too.
You took my heart,
Then played the part of little coquette.
And, all my dreams just disappeared
Like the smoke from a cigarette.
Fool that I am,
For hoping you'd understand.
And thinking you
Would listen, too,
And, oh, the things I had planned.
But we couldn’t see eye to eye
So, darling, darling, darling,
This is goodbye.
But I still care, but I still care,
And oh, fool that I am.
Fool that I am.

So Sad
(Don Everly)
We used to have good times together
But now I feel them slip away
It makes me cry to see love die
So sad to watch good love go bad
Remember how you used to feel, dear?
You said nothing could change your mind
It breaks my heart to see us part
So sad to watch good love go bad
Is it any wonder
That I feel so blue
When I know for certain
That I'm losing you
Remember how you used to feel, dear?
You said nothing could change your mind
It breaks my heart to see us part
So sad to watch good love go bad
So sad to watch good love go bad

Chances Are
(Al Stillman)
Chances are, ‘cause I wear a silly grin
The moment you come into view
Chances are you think that I’m in love with you.
Just because my composure sort – of slips
The moment that your lips meat mine,
Chances are you think my heart’s your Valentine.
In the magic of the moonlight,
When I sigh “hold me close, dear”
Chances are you believe
The stars that fill the skies are in my eyes.
Guess you feel you’ll always be
The one and only one for me
And if you think you could,
Well chances are your chances are awfully good!
Orchestra:
Chances are you believe
The stars that fill the skies are in my eyes.
Guess you feel you’ll always be
The one and only one for me
And if you think you could,
Well chances are your chances are awfully good!
The chances are your chances are awfully good!
