Send in the Clowns

( Stephen Sondheim )

Isn't it rich, are we a pair

Me here at last on the ground

You in mid-air

Send in the clowns

Isn't it bliss, don't you approve

One who keeps tearing around

One who can't move

Where are the clowns

Send in the clowns

Just when I'd stopped opening doors

Finally knowing the one that I wanted

Was yours

Making my entrance again with my

Usual flair

Sure of my lines

No one is there

Don't you love farce,

My fault I fear,

I thought thar you'd want what I want

Sorry my dear

But where are the clowns

There ought to be clowns

Quick send in the clowns

What a surprise!

Who could foresee

I'd come to feel about you

What you felt about me?

Why only now I see

That you've drifted away?

What a surprise...

What a cliche...

Isn't it rich, isn't it queer

Losing my timing this late

In my career

And where are the clowns

Quick send in the clowns

Don't bother, they're here

Clothes of Sand

( Nick Drake )

Who has dressed you

In strange clothes of sand,

Who has taken you

Far from my land,

Who has said my saying were wrong,

And who will say

That I stayed much too long?

Clothes of sand have covered your face,

Given you meaning but taken my place,

So make your way on down the sea,

Something has take you so far from me.

Does it now seem worth

All the colour of skies,

To see the earth through painted eyes,

To look through panes of shaded glass,

See the stains of winter's glass?

Can you now return to

From where you came,

Try to burn your changing name,

Or with silver spoons

And coloured light

Will you worship moons

In winter's night.

Clothes of sand have covered your face,

Given you meaning but taken my place,

So make your way on down the sea,

Something has take you so far from me.

Cathedral Song

( Tanita Tikaram )

I saw from the cathedral

You were watching me

And I saw from the cathedral

What I should be

So take my lies

And take my time

'Cause all the others want to take my life

And I watch, with an intent, basic

It's the same for you

You hold your hand

And it's all fine - laced and

What would you make me do

So take my lies

And take my time

'Cause all the others want to take my life

Serious for the winter time

To wrench my soul

Whole cotton whole cotton ears

But I know there must be

Yes, I know there must be

Yes, I know there must be a place to go

You saw me, from the cathedral

Well, I'm an ancient heart

Yes, you saw me from the cathedral

And here we are just falling apart

You catch me

I am tired

I want all that you are

And I saw from the cathedral

You were leaving me

And I saw from the cathedral

You could not see to see

So take my lies

And take my time

'Cause all the others

Want to take my life

Love Is

( Kate, Anna & Jane McGarrigle )

Love is a shiny car

Love is a steel guitar

Love is a battle scar

Love is the morning star

Love is a twelve-bar blues

Love is your blue suede shoes

Love is a heart abused

Love is a mind confused

Love is the pleasures untold

And for some love is

Still a band of gold

My love has no

Reason has no rhyme

My love crossed the double line

Love is a minor chord

Love is a mental ward

Love is a drawn sword

Love is it's own reward

Love is the pleasures untold

And for some love is

Still a band of gold

My love has no

Reason has no rhyme

My love crossed the double line

Cherish

( Madonna / Patrick Leonard )

So tired of broken hearts,

Of losing at this game

Before I start this dance

I take a chance in telling you

I want more than just romance

You are my destiny,

I can't let go baby

Can't you see

Cupid please take your aim at me

Cherish the thought

Of always having you

Here by my side

Cherish the joy

You keep bringing it into my life

Cherish your strength

You got the power

To make me feel good

Perish the thought

Of ever leaving I never would

I was never satisfied

With casual encounters

I can't hide the need

For two hearts that bleed

with burning love

That's the way it's got to be

Romeo and Juliet,

They never felt this way I bet

So don't understimate

My point of view

Cherish the thought

Of always having

You here by my side

Cherish the joy

You keep bringing it into my life

Cherish your strength

You got the power

To make me feel good

Perish the thought

Of ever leaving I never would

Who ? You ! Can't get away,

I won't let you

Who ? You !

I could never forget to

Cherish is the world

I use to remind me of

... your love

Romeo and Juliet,

They never felt this way I bet

So don't understimate

My point of view

Give me strength

Give me joy my boy

I will always

Cherish you

The Ballad of the Sad Young Men

( Wolf / Landesman )

Sing a song of sad young man

Glasses full of rye

All the news is bad again so

Kiss your dreams goodbye

All the sad young men sitting in the bars

Knowing neon nights missing all the stars

All the sad young men

Drifting through the town

Drinking up the night trying not to drown

All the sad young men singing in the cold

Trying to forget that they're growing old

All the sad young men choking on their worth

Trying to be brave, running from the truth

Autumm turns the leaves gold

Slowly dies the heart

Sad young men are growing old

And that's the cruelest part

All the sad young men seek a certain smile

Someone they can hold for a little while

Tired little girl does the best she can

Trying to be gay for her sad young man

While the grimy moon watches from above

All the sad young men play of making love

Misbegotten moon shine for sad young men

Let your gentle light guide them home tonight

All the sad young men

If I Loved You

( Richard Rogers )

If I loved you

Time and again

I would try to say,

All I'd want you to know

If I loved you,

Words wouldn't come in an

Easy way

Round in circles I'd go

Longing to tell you

But afraid and shy

I'd let my golden chances

Pass me by

Soon you'd leave me

Off you would go

In the mist of day

Never never

To know

How I loved you

If I loved

You

And So It Goes

( Billy Joel )

In every heart there is a room

A sanctuary safe and strong

To heal the wounds frome lovers past

Until a new one comes along

I spoke to you in cautious tones

You answered me with no pretense

And still feel I said too much

My silence is my self defense

And every time I've held a rose

It seems I only felt the thorns

And so it goes, and so it goes

And so will you soon I suppose

But if my silence made you leave

Then that would be my worst mistake

So I will share this room with you

And you can have this heart to break

And this is why my eyes are closed

It's just as well for all I've seen

And so it goes, and so it goes

And you're the only one who knows

So I would choose to be with you

That's if the choice were mine to make

But you can make decisions too

And you can have this heart to break

And so it goes, and so it goes

And you're the only one who knows

I Get Along Without You Very Well

( Hoagy Carmichael )

I get along without you very well

Of course I do

Except when soft rains fall

And drip from leaves then I recall

The thrill of being sheltered in your arms

Of course I do

But I get along without you very well

I've forgotten you just like I should

Of course I have

Except to hear your name

Or someone's laugh that is the same

But I'v forgotten you like I should

What a guy, what a fool am I

To think my breaking

Heart could kid the moon

What's in store, should I phone once more

No it's best that I stick to my tune

I get along without you very well

Of course I do

Except perhaps in spring

But I should never think of spring

For that would surely break my heart in two

Somewhere in my Broken Heart

( Billy Dean / Richard Leigh )

You made up your mind

It was time it was over

After we had come so far

But I think there's

Enough pieces of forgiveness

Somewhere in my broken heart

I would not have chosen

The road you have taken

It has left us miles apart

But I think can still find

The will to keep going

Somewhere in my broken heart

So fly, go ahead and fly

Until you find out who you are

I will keep my love unspoken

Somewhere in my broken heart

I hope that in time you will find

what you long for

Love that's written in the stars

And when you finally do

I think you will see it's

Somewhere in my broken heart

Oh, I will keep my love unspoken

Somewhere in my broken heart

I hope that in time you will find

what you long for

Love that's written in the stars

And when you finally do

I think you will see it's

Somewhere in my broken,

somewhere in my broken

Somewhere in my broken heart

If You See Him Say Hello

( Bob Dylan )

If you see him, say hello,

He might be in Tangier

He left here last early spring,

Is livin' there, I hear

Say for me that I'm all right though

things get kind of slow

He might think that I've forgotten him,

Don't tell him it isn't so.

We had a falling-out,

Like lovers often will

And to think of how he left that night,

it still brings me a chill

And though our separation,

it pierced me to the heart

He still lives inside of me,

We've never been apart

If you get close to him,

Kiss him once for me

I always have respected him

for doing what he did and gettin' free

Oh, whatever makes him happy,

I won't stand in the way

Though the bitter taste still lingers on

from the night I tried to make him stay

I see a lot of people

As I make the rounds

And I hear his name here and there

as I go from town to town

And I've never gotten used to it,

I've just learned to turn it off

Either I'm too sensitive

Or else I'm gettin' soft.

Sundown, yellow moon,

I replay the past

I know every scene by heart,

they all went by so fast

If he's passin' back this way,

I'm not that hard to find

Tell him he can look me up

If he's got the time.

If Tomorrow Never Comes

( K. Blazy / G. Brooks )

Sometimes late at night

I lie awake and watch him sleeping

He's lost in peaceful dreams

So I turn out the lights

And lay there in the dark

And the thought crosses my mind

If I never wake up in the morning

Would he ever doubt the way I feel

About him in my heart

If tomorrow never comes

Will he know how much I loved him

Did I try in every way to show him every day

That he's my only one

And if my time on earth were through

And he must face the world without me

Is the love I gave him in the past

Gonna be enough to last

If tomorrow never comes

'Cause I've lost loved ones in my life

Who never knew how much I loved them

Now I live with the regret

That my true feelings for them

never were revealed

So I made a promise to myself

To say each day how much he means to me

And avoid the circumstance

Where there's no second chance to tell him

how I feel

So tell that someone that you love

Just what you're thinking of

If tomorrow never comes

The Heart of the Matter

( Mike Campbell / Don Henley / J.D. Souther )

I got the call today, I didn't wanna hear

But I knew that it would come

An old true friend of ours

Was talkin' on the phone

He said you found someone

And I thought of all the bad luck, and the

struggles we went through

And how I lost me and you lost you

What are these voices

Outside love's open door

Make us throw off our contentment

And beg for something more ?

I'm learning to live without you now

But I miss you sometimes

The more I know, the less I understand

All the things I thought I knew,

I'm learning again

I've been tryin' to get down

to the heart of the matter

But my will gets weak and my thoughts

seem to scatter

But I think it's about forgiveness

Forgiveness

Even if, even if you don't love me anymore

These times are so uncertain

There's a yearning undefined...

people filled with rage

We all need a little tenderness

How can love survive

In such a graceless age ?

The trust and self-assurance

that lead to happiness

They're the very things we kill, I guess

Pride and competition

cannot fill these empty arms

And the work I put between us

doesn't keep me warm

I'm learning to live without you now

But I miss you, baby

The more I now, the less I understand

All the things I thought I'd figured out

I have to learn again

I've been trying to get down

to the heart of the matter

But everything changes

and my friends seem to scatter

But I think it's about forgiveness

Forgiveness

Even if, even if you don't love me anymore

There are people in your life

who've come and gone

They let you down and hurt your pride

Better put it all behind you; life goes on

You keep carryin' that anger,

it'll eat you up inside

I've been trying to get down

to the heart of the matter

But my will gets weak

and my thoughts seem to scatter

But I think it's about forgiveness

Forgiveness

Even if, even if you don't love me

I've been trying to get down

to the heart of the matter

Because the flesh will get weak

and the ashes will scatter

So I'm thinkin' about forgiveness

Forgiveness

Even if, even if you don't love me

Old Friend

( Ford / Cryer )

Everytime I've lost another lover

I call up my old friend

And say let's get together

I'm under the weather

Another love has suddenly come to an end

And he listens as I tell him my sad story

And wonders at my taste in men

And we wonder why I do it

And the pain of getting through it

And he laughs and says:

"You'll do it again !"

And we sit in a bar and talk till two

'Bout life and love as old friends do

And tell each other what we've been through

How love is rare, life is strange

Nothing lasts, people change

And I ask him if his life is ever lonely

And if he ever feels despair

And he says he's learned to love it

'Cause that's really a part of it

And it helps him feel

The good times when they're there

And we wonder if I'll live with any lover

Or spend my life alone

And the bartender is dozing

And it's getting time for closing

So we figure that I'll make it on my own

But we'll meet the year we're sixty-two

And travel the world as old friends do

And tell each other what we've been through

How love is rare, life is strange

Nothing lasts, people change

Say It Ain't So

( Irving Berlin )

You can't stop people from talking

And they're talking my dear

And the things they're saying

Fill my heart with fear

Now I could never believe them

When they say you're untrue

I know that they're mistaken

Still I want to hear it from you

Say it isn't so

Say it isn't so

Everyone is saying you don't love me,

say it isn't so

Everywhere I go, everyone I know,

Whispers that you're growing tired of me,

say it isn't so

People say that you found somebody new

And it won't be long before you leave me

Say it isn't true

Say that everything is still okay

That's all I want to know

And what they're saying, say it isn't so

Let's Face the Music and Dance

( Irving Berlin )

There may be trouble ahead

But while there's moonlight and music

And love and romance

Let's face the music and dance

Before the fiddlers have fled

Before they ask us to pay the bill

And while we still have a chance

Let's face the music and dance

Soon, we'll be without the moon

Humming a different tune

And then there may be teardrops to shed

But while there's moonlight and music

And love and romance, let's face

The music and dance, dance

Let's face the music and dance

Somewhere

( Leonard Bernstein - Stephen Sondheim )

Someday, somewhere

We'll find a new way of living

We'll find a way of forgiving

Somewhere

There's is a place for us

Somewhere a place for us

Peace and quiet and open air

Wait for us

Somewhere

There's a time for us

Someday a time for us

Time together with time to spare

Time to learn

Time to care

Someday, somewhere

We'll find a new way of living

We'll find there's a way of forgiving

Somewhere

There's a place for us

A time and a place for us

Hold my hand and we're half way there

Hold my hand

And I'll take you there

Somehow

Someday, somewhere

Paper of Pins

( traditional )

I'll give to you this paper of pins

If that's the way our love begins

If you will marry me, me, me

If you will marry me.

I'll not accept your paper of pins

If that's the way our love begins

And I'll not marry you, you, you

No, I'll not marry you.

I'll give to you this dress of red

All stitched around with golden thread

If you will marry me, me, me

If you will marry me.

I'll not accept your dress of red

All stitched around with golden thread

And I'll not marry you, you, you

No, I'll not marry you.

I'll give to you this golden chest

So you may have money at your request

If you will marry me, me, me

If you will marry me.

I'll not accept your golden chest

So I may have money at my request

And I won't marry you, you, you

No, I won't marry you.

Well, I'll give to you my hand and my heart

So we may marry and never part

If you will marry me, me, me

If you will marry me.

I will accept you hand and your heart

That we may marry and never part

And I will marry you, you, you

And you will marry me, me, me

Yes, I will marry you

When You Wish Upon a Star

( Neol Washington / Leigh Harline )

When you wish upon a star

Makes no difference who you are

Anything your heart desires

Will come to you

If your heart is in your dream

No request is too extreme

When you wish upon a star

Like dreamers do

Fate is kind

She brings to those who love

The sweet fulfillment of

Their secret longing

Like a bolt out of the blue

Fate steps in and pulls you through

When you wish upon a star

Your dreams come true

Close the Door Lightly When You Go

( Eric Andersen )

Turn around, don't whisper out my name

For like a breeze, it'd stir a dying flame

I'll miss someone, if it eases you to know

So close the door lightly when you go

Who was the one that stole my mind?

Who was the one that robbed my time?

Who was the one who made me feel unkind?

So fare thee well, sweet love of mine

Take your tears to someone else's eyes

They're made of glass

And are cut like wounded lies

Memories are drifting like the snow

But close the door lightly when you go

Don't look back to where you once hade been

Look straight ahead

When you're walking through the rain

And find a light

If the path gets dark and cold

But close the door lightly when you go.
