The Man I Love
12.
. . .


You may see a stranger,
You may see a stranger
Across a crowded room
And somehow you know,
You know even then
That somewhere you'll see him
Again and again.

Some enchanted evening
Someone may be laughin',
You may hear him laughin'
Across a crowded room
And night after night,
As strange as it seems
The sound of her laughter
Will sing in your dreams.


Who can explain it?
Who can tell you why?
Fools give you reasons,
Wise men never try.

Some enchanted evening
When you find your true love,
Across a crowded room,
And fly to her side,
And make her your own
For all through your life you
May dream all alone.

Once you have found him,
Never let her go.
Once you have found him,
Never let her go!

Everybody says don't
Everybody says don't
Everybody says
Don't it isn't right
Don't it isn't nice
Everybody says don't
Everybody says don't
Everybody says
Don't walk on the grass
Don't disturb the peace
Don't skate on the ice

Well I say do
I say
Walk on the grass
It was ment to feel
I say sail
Tilt at the windmill
And if you fail you fail

Everybody says don't
Everybody says don't
Everybody says
Don't get out of line
When they say that then
Lady thats a sign
Nine times out of ten
Lady your doing just fine

Make just a ripple
Come on be brave
This time a ripple
Next time a wave

Sometimes you have to start small
Climbing the tiniest wall
Maybe your going to fall
But it's better than not starting at all

Everybody says no
Stop musen't rock the boat
Musen't touch a thing

Everybody says don't
Everybody says wait
Everybody says can't fight city hall
Can't upset the court
Can't laugh at the king

Well I say try
I say
Laugh at the king till it makes you cry
Loose your poise
Fall if you have to
But lady make a noise
Yes

Everybody says don't
Everybody says can't
Everybody says wait around for miricales
That's the way the world is made

I insist on miricales
If you do them
Miricales
Knock on to them
I say don't
Don't be afraid

. . .


Night time sharpens
Heightens each sensation
Darkness stirs
And waits imagination
Silently the senses
Abandon their defenses
Helpless to resist the notes I write
For I compose the music of the night

Slowly, gently
Night unfurls its splendor
Grasp it, sense it
Tremulous and tender
Hearing is believing
Music is deceiving
Hard as lightning, soft as candlelight
Dare you trust the music of the night

Close your eyes, for your eyes will only tell the truth
And the truth isn't what you want to see
In the dark it is easy to pretend
That the truth is what it ought to be

Softly, deftly
Music shall caress you
Hear it, feel it
Secretly possess you
Open up your mind
Let your fantasies unwind
In this darkness which you know you cannot fight
The darkness of the music of the night

Close your eyes, start a journey to a strange new world
Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before
Close your eyes and let music set you free
Only then can you belong to me

Floating, falling
Sweet intoxication
Touch me, trust me
Savour each sensation
Let the dream begin
Let your darker side give in
To the power of the music that I write
The power of the music of the night

You alone can make my song take flight
Help me make the music of the night

. . .


Speak Low
When you speak love
Our summer day withers away
Too soon, too soon

Speak Low
When you speak love
Our moment is swift, like ships adrift
Westward depart, too soon

Speak Low
Darling, Speak Low
Love is a spark, lost in the dark
Too soon, too soon

I feel wherever I go
That tomorrow is near
Tomorrow is hear
And always too soon

Time is so old
And love so brief
Love is pure gold
And time of beef

We're late, darling
We're late
The curtain descends, everything ends
Too soon, too soon

I wait, darling
I wait
Will you speak low to me, speak love to me
And soon

I wait, darling
I wait
Will you speak low to me, slow to me
Oh please just don't say no to me
Let it flow to me, slow to me, soon

. . .


I don't know why I'm frightened
I know my way around here
The cardboard trees, the painted scenes, the sound here.
Yes a world to rediscover,
But I'm 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's as if we never said goodbye.

I've spent so many mornings
Just trying to resist you
I'm trembling now
You can't know how I've missed you,
Missed the fairy-tail adventures
In this ever-spinning playground
We were young together.

I'm coming out of make-up


The lights already burning,
Not long until the camera's 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't want to be alone that's all in the past,
This world's waited long enough,
I've 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'll have early morning madness.
We'll have magic in the making.
Yes, everything is as if we never said goodbye...
Oh, please don't ever ever make me say goodbye!!!

How do you say to your child in the night
Nothing is all black but then nothing is all white?
How do you say it will all be alright
When you know that it mightn't be true?
What do you do?
Careful the things you say,
Children will listen.
Careful the things you do,
Children will see.
And learn.
Children may not obey,
But children will listen.
Children will look to you
For which way to turn,
To learn what to be.
Careful before you say,
"listen to me."
Children will listen.
Careful the wish you make,
Wishes are children.
Careful the path they take,
Wishes come true,
Not free.
Careful the spell you cast,
Not just on children.
Sometimes the spell may last

Past what you can see
And turn against you...
Careful the tale you tell.
That is the spell.
Children will listen...
How can you say to a child who's in flight,
Don't slip away and I won't hold so tight?
What can you say that no matter how slight won't be misunderstood?
What do you leave to your child when you're dead
Only what ever you put in it's head
Things that your mother and father had said
Which were left to them too.
Careful what you say, children will listen
Careful you do it too, children will see and learn.
Oh!
Guide them but step away,
Children will glisten.
Tamper with what is true
And children will turn,
If just to be free.
Careful before you say,
"listen to me."
Children will listen...
Children will listen!
Children, children will listen

[Johnny]
I have a love and it's all that I have
Right or wrong, what else can I do?

[Barbra]
I love him; I'm his,
And ev'rything he is
I am too...

[Johnny]
I am too...

[Barbra]
I have a love and it's all that I need.
Right or wrong, and he needs me too.

[Johnny]
I love her, we're one,

[Barbra]
I love him,

[Johnny]
There's nothing to be done.

[Barbra]
Nothing to be done.

[Johnny]
Not a thing I can do,

[Barbra]
But hold him,

[Johnny]
But hold her,
Hold her forever,

[Both]
Be with her now--

[Johnny]
Tomorrow
And all of my life...

[Barbra]
I have a love
And it's all that I need...

Make of our hands one hand,
Make of our hearts one heart,
Make of our vows one last vow,
Only death will part...
Us now.

{Johnny]
Make of our lives one life,

[Both]
Day after day one life.
Now it begins, now we start
One hand, one heart;
Even death won't part...

[Barbra]
Us now...

[Johnny]
Make of our lives one life,

[Both]
Day after day one life.

[Johnny]
Now it begins,

[Barbra]
Now it begins,

[Johnny]
Now we start

[Barbra]
Now we start

[Johnny]
One hand,

[Barbra]
One hand,

[Johnny]
One heart,

[Barbra]
One heart,

[Both]
Even death won't part us now.

When love comes so strong,
There is no right or wrong,
Your love is,
Your love is,
Your love is,
Your life!

. . .


You are complete,
Yes, you are your own;
We do not belong together.

You are complete, just you all alone.
I am unfinished, I am diminished
With or without you.
We do not belong together,
And we should have belonged together.
What made it so right together
Is what made it all wrong.

No one is you and no one can be,
But others will do though.
No one is you, no, there we agree,
But no one is me, no, no one is me!

We do not belong together,
And we'll never belong...

There's nothing to say,
I cannot be what you want,
I did what I had to do,
Now it's up to you...
Move on...

Stop worrying where you're going,
Move on.
If you can go where you're going,
You've gone.
Just keep moving on...

I chose and my world was shaking,
So what?
The choice may have been mistaken,
The chosing was not,
You have to move on.


Look at what you want
Not what might have been
Only what could be.
Look at all the things you did for me.
Opened up my eyes, taught me how to see,
Notice every tree,
Trust myself enough to move on,
I want to explore the world,
I want to find how to get through
Through this something new,
Something of my own.
Move on, move on!

Stop wondering which direction is right.
You'd think that you found perfection
And then overnight you keep moving on.

Look at what you want, not at where you are
Think of what you have, what can be?
Look at all the things you gave to me,
Let me give to you something in return.

Think of what we have,
Not the things we couldn't share,
Just the best of what was there
Like the care, and the feeling,
And the life moving on.

We do not belong together,
And we should have belonged together.
We have to move on,
Settle for the glow, time for letting go
Now the moment's gone...
Time for moving on.
Move on...
Move on...
Move on...

. . .


They call you lady luck
But there is room for doubt
At times you have a very un-lady-like way
Of running out.

Your on a date with me,
The pickings have been lush
And yet before this evening is over you might give me the brush
You might forget your manners,
You might refuse to stay,
And so the best that I can do is pray...

Luck be a lady tonight, luck be a lady tonight.
Luck if you've ever been a lady to begin with,
Luck be a lady tonight.

Luck how I'm longing to see,
How good a friend you can be.
Stick with me sister, I'm the one that you came in with,
Luck be a lady with me.

A lady doesn't leave her escort,
It isn't fair, it isn't nice.


A lady doesn't wander all over the joint
And blow on some other guy's dice.

So, let's keep the party polite,
Hmm...
Never get out of my sight,
Stick with me sister,
I'm the gal that I came in with,
Luck be a lady tonight!

A lady wouldn't flirt with strangers,
She'd have heart, she would have a soul.
A lady wouldn't make little sneak eyes at you,
When I've bet my life on this roll.

So, let's keep the party polite,
Neeeee...ver get out of my sight,
Stick with me pal,
'cause I'm the gal that you came in with,
Luck be a lady...
Luck be a lady...
Luck be lady tonight!

. . .


They don't want me any more,
They all say I'm through
Well it's time they knew...

With on look
I can break your heart
With one look
I play every part
I can make your sad heart sing
With one look you'll know
All you need to know.

With one smile
I'm the girl next door
Or the love that you've hungered for
When I speak it's with my soul
I can play any role

No words can tell
The stories my eyes tell
Watch me when I frown
You can't write that down
You know I'm right
It's there in black and white
When I look your way
You'll hear what I say.

Yes, with one look


I put words to shame
Just one look
Sets the screen aflame
Silent music starts to play
One tear from my eye
Makes the whole world cry.

With one look
They'll forgive the past
They'll rejoice: I've returned at last
To my people in the dark
Still out there in the dark...

Silent music starts to play
With one look you'll know
All you need to know.

With one look
I'll ignite a blaze
I'll return to my glory days
They'll say norma's back at last.

This time I'm staying
I'm staying for good
I'll be back
Where I was born to be
With one look
I'll be me...

. . .
