It Took Dreams
It Took Dreams
Composer(s): Sherman
Performer(s): Annette Funicello
Dream away … Dream away … Dream away
It took dreams to cross the ocean
It took dreams for man to fly
It took dreams to build the bridges
And the buildings that reach the sky
It took dreams and crazy dreamers
For the things we have today
So if you've got a dream and you don't be afraid to follow through
No matter what they say, dream away
Christopho Columbo had a dream
Everybody said the world was flat
Christopho Columbo sailed the seas
Everybody had to eat his hat
Wilbur and his brother built a plane
Everybody said they were insane
They all began as dreams away
It took dreams to cross the ocean
(Christopho Columbo had a dream)
(Everybody said the world was flat)
It took dreams for man to fly
(Christopho Columbo sailed the seas)
(Everybody had to eat his hat)
It took dreams to build the bridges
(Wilbur and his brother built a plane)
(Everybody said they were insane)
And the buildings that reach the sky
(Everybody now once upon a shout)
(And then)
Mr. Franklyn flew his kite and key
He discovered electricity
Mr. Fulton sailed a boat by sea
All because he had a crazy dream
Moving pictures, radio, tv screens
Rockets to the moon and submarines
No matter what they say
Dream away

Another Lonely Christmas
Another Lonely Christmas
Composer(s): Prince
Performer(s): Prince & The Revolution
Last night I spent another lonely Christmas
Darling, darling, U should've been there
Cuz all the ones I dream about
U are the one that makes my love shout
U see, U are the only one I care for
Remember the time we swam naked in your father's pool
Boy, he was upset that night
But boy, was that ever cool
Remember that night we played pokeno for money
And U robbed me blind
Remember how U used to scream so loud cuz U...
U hated that number 9
Hey, I saw your sister skatin' on the lake this afternoon
Good heaven, how she's grown
She swoons the boy skaters cuz she's so tall
But of all your father's children
All your father's children, baby
U know U are the finest of them all
U are brighter than the northern star and I...
Last night I spent another lonely Christmas
Darling, darling, U, U should've been there
Cuz U see, of all the ones I dream about
U are the one that makes my love shout
U see, U are the only one I care for, listen
Do U still like banana daiquiris
boy we used to get so touched
U use to get so horny
U'd make me leave the lights on
I'd pay money just to see
your happy dancin' silouette upon the pier
Sometimes I think I hear U smilin
Sometimes I think your here
I find myself holding every pillow
N the bed U and I used to share
Last night I spent another lonely Christmas
Darling U shouldn't be
U shouldn't be there, cuz U see
Last night I spent another lonely Christmas
Darling, darling, U, U should've been there
Cuz U see, of all the ones I dream about
U are the one that makes my love shout
U see, U are the only one I care for, yeah
My mama used to say always trust your lover
But now I guess that only applies to her
Cuz baby, U promised me
Baby, U promised me U'd never leave
Then U died on the 25th day of December
Oh baby, last night, oh, I spent another lonely, lonely Christmas
Darling, baby, U, U should've been there
Cuz all the ones I dream about
U are the one that makes my love shout
U see, U are the only one I care for, yeah
Your father said it was pneumonia
Your mother said it was stress
But the doctor said U were dead and I...
I say it's senseless
Every Christmas night for 7 years now
I drink banana daiquiris till I'm blind
As long as I can hear U smiling, baby
U won't hear my tears
Another lonely Christmas is mine, yeah, mine, yeah
Another lonely Christmas is mine
Last night, yeah, I spent another lonely, lonely Christmas
Darling, darling, U should've been there, yeah
Cuz all the ones I dream about
U are the one that make my love shout
U see, u are the only one I care for

Performer(s): Percy Sledge - 1966
Covered by multiple other artists
I see you walk with him
I see you talk to him
It tears me up
It tears me up
And start my eyes to cryin'
Oh, oh, I can't stop cryin'
I see him kiss your lips
And squeeze your fingertips
It tears me up
It tears me up
I feel like I'm dyin'
Oh, oh, I must be dyin'
It's a cold, cold world I'm livin' in
I turn my back and there you are with my best friend
Oh sometimes we pass on the street darlin'
And you looked at me and you can say, "I'm sorry, my sweet"
Maybe just saying I'm sorry would be enough
But then you'd look back at him, with your perfect smile
And that'd make me feel kind of rough
Oh darlin It tears me up
I see you smile at him
You'll never tire of him
It tears me up
It tears me up
But there ain't nothin I can do now
Baby can't you see I'm still in love with you
Oh, can't you see I'm still in love with you, baby
Still waitin for something that I cannot have
Oh, baby, nothin' tears me up so bad
Can't you see that I'm still in love with you baby
Oh, that tears me up so bad now baby ...

Another Christmas Song
Another Christmas Song
Composer(s): Ian Anderson
Performer(s): Jethro Tull
Hope everybody's ringing on their own bell, this fine morning
Hope everyone's connected to that long distance phone
Old man, he's a mountain
Old man, he's an island
Old man, he's a-walking says
"I'm going to call, call all my children home"
Hope everybody's dancing to their own drum this fine morning
the beat of distant Africa or a Polish factory town
Old man, he's calling for his supper
Calling for his whisky
Calling for his sons and daughters, yeah
calling all his children round
Sharp ears are tuned in to the drones and chanters warming
Mist blowing round some headland, somewhere in your memory
Everyone is from somewhere
even if you've never been there
So take a minute to remember the part of you
that might be the old man calling me
How many wars you're fighting out there this winter's morning?
Maybe it's always time for another Christmas song
Old man he's asleep now
Got appointments to keep now
Dreaming of his sons and daughters, and proving
proving that the blood is strong

The First Nowell The Angel Did Say
The First Nowell The Angel Did Say - 1833 (aka First Noel - 1910)
(Danish Version: Den Allerførste Jul - 1978)
Composer(s): William Sandys; Traditional
The first Nowell the angel did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay
In fields as they lay, keeping their sheep
on a cold winter's night that was so deep
Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell
Born is the King of Israel
They looked up and saw a star
Shining in the east beyond them far
And to the earth it gave great light
And so it continued both day and night
The first Nowell the angel did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay
In fields as they lay, keeping their sheep
on a cold winter's night that was so deep
Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell
Born is the King of Israel
And by the light of that same star
Three wise men came from country far
To seek for a king was their intent
And to follow the star wherever it went
The first Nowell the angel did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay
In fields as they lay, keeping their sheep
on a cold winter's night that was so deep
Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell
Born is the King of Israel
This star drew nigh to the northwest
O'er Bethlehem it took it rest
And there it did both stop and stay
Right over the place where Jesus lay
The first Nowell the angel did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay
In fields as they lay, keeping their sheep
on a cold winter's night that was so deep
Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell
Born is the King of Israel
Then entered in those wise men three
Full reverently upon their knee
and offered there in his presence
Their gold, and myrrh, and frakincense
The first Nowell the angel did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay
In fields as they lay, keeping their sheep
on a cold winter's night that was so deep
Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell
Born is the King of Israel
Then let us all with one accord
Sing praises to our heavenly Lord
That hath made heaven and earth of naught
And with his blood mankind hath bought
The first Nowell the angel did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay
In fields as they lay, keeping their sheep
on a cold winter's night that was so deep
Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell
Born is the King of Israel

It Takes Too Long To Learn To Live Alone
It Takes Too Long To Learn To Live Alone
Composer(s): Robert Allen; Leon Carr
Performer(s): Peggy Lee
and multiple other artists
I leave the house
I catch the bus and go to work
The way I did before
The same routine
Most everyday except I guess
I see my folks much more
A year has passed
I thought by now that I could make
A new life of my own
But habits are
So hard to break
I think of you
And I still ache
It takes too long to learn to live alone
It's really bad
When Friday comes because I know
The weekend lies ahead
The walks we took
The football games
And when it rained
How late we stayed in bed
I've done so much to change the house
The attic's full memories I know
And yet the night
Turned out the light
I wait for you to say goodnight
It takes too long to learn to live alone
I go on dates but when I do
I'd always find
Before the night is thru
The same routine
Behind my smile
I'm sitting there
Comparing them to you
And in the end it's always you
I'm feeling even more when I get home
I thought that I was free of you
But I was wrong I never knew
It takes too long to learn to live alone

It Takes Time
It Takes Time
Composer(s): Arthur Korb
Performer(s): Doris Day
It takes time
To get your gal to see the light
It takes time
It isn't always love at sight
From the first little glance
'Til she's ready for romance
Remember, little man, it takes time
It takes time
To make the coffee percolate
It takes time
To get your gal to set the date
From the first moonlight walk
'Til you get the baby talk
Remember, little man, it takes time
Now, Rome wasn't built in a day, they say
Not to mention the Pyramids and Sphinx
It took old Rip Van Winkle all of twenty years
To squeeze the livin' daylights out of forty winks
It takes time
To turn the Winter into Spring
It takes time
To get the dough to get the ring
From the first little smile
'Til you're walkin' down the aisle
Remember, little man, it takes time
It takes time
To make the coffee percolate
It takes time
To get your gal to set the date
From the first moonlight walk
'Til you get the baby talk
Remember, little man, it takes time
Now, Rome wasn't built in a day, they say
Not to mention the Pyramids and Sphinx
It took old Rip Van Winkle all of twenty years
To squeeze the livin' daylights out of forty winks
It takes time
To turn the Winter into Spring
It takes time
To get the dough to get the ring
From the first little smile
'Til you're walkin' down the aisle
Remember, little man ........... it takes time

Angels we have heard on high
Singing sweetly through the night
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their brave delight

Shepherds, why this jubilee?
Why these songs of happy cheer?
What great brightness did you see?
What glad tiding did you hear?
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Come to Bethlehem and see
Him whose birth the angels sing
Come, adore on bended knee
Christ, the Lord, the new-born King
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo
See him in a manger laid
Whom the angels praise above
Mary, Joseph, lend your aid
While we raise our hearts in love
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo

Into the pool of peace inside

Life supporting waves of bliss
Mother Divine's precious kiss
Brings with love the light of wisdom
And the gift of eternal freedom
To waves and I both travel by
(... and the nature of man...)
And that makes all the difference to me
(Krishna...)
All this is that
I am that, thou art that, all this is that
I am that, thou art that, all this is that
This is that

Dusk time the shadows fall
Into the timeless time of all
To waves and I both travel by
Golden auras glow around you
Omnipresent love surrounds you
Wisdom warming as the sun
You and I are truly one
To waves and I both travel by
And that makes all the difference to me
I am that, thou art that, all this is that
I am that, thou art that, all this is that
I am that, thou art that, all this is that

Angel In The Christmas Play
Angel In The Christmas Play
Performer(s): Spike Jones
Poured the goldfish bowl into daddy's hat
Then I painted stripes down the family cat
Broke two teeth only yesterday
I'm the angel in the Christmas play
In department stores, 'do it just because
Pull the whiskers off of the San-tee Claus
Bite his leg, then I get away
I'm the angel in the Chrismas play
Daddy laughs, he bends in half
When I wear angel hair
But wait until he takes a spill
On halos on the stairs
Well I gotta go before the mailman stops
And he feels that glue in the letter box
See you all when its Christmas day
I'm the angel in the Christmas play
I put on my angel gown
And oh did momma laugh
She didn't guess it was her best dress...
The one I tore in half
On the roof today, gave 'em all a scare
I put on my wings, tried to fly thru air
Hope that lump's gonna go away
I'm the angel in the Christmas play
I'm the angel in the Christmas play

It Takes a Woman
Composer(s): Jerry Herman
Performer(s): Horace Vandergelder; David Burns; Instant Glee Club
Vandergelder:
It takes a woman all powdered and pink
To joyously clean out the drain in the sink
And it takes an angel with long golden lashes
And soft dresden fingers
For dumping the ashes
Cornelius, Barnaby, and 2 customers:
Yes it takes a woman
A dainty woman
A sweetheart, a mistress, a wife
O yes it takes a woman
A fragile woman
To bring you the sweet things in life
Vandergelder:
The frail young maiden who's constantly there
For washing and blueing and shoeing the mare
And it takes a female for setting the table
And weaving the Guernsey
And cleaning the stable
All:
O yes it takes a woman
A dainty woman
A sweetheart, a mistress, a wife
O yes it takes a woman
A fragile woman
To bring you the sweet things in life
And so she'll work until infinity
Three cheers for femininity
Rah Rah Rah...Rah Rah Rah
F. E. M. - I. T. Y
Vandergelder:
F. E. M. I. T. Y?
Get out of here!
And in the winter she'll shovel the ice
And lovingly set out the traps for the mice
She's a joy and treasure for practically speaking
To whom can you turn when the plumbing is leaking?
Vandergelder, Cornelius, and Barnaby:
To That dainty woman
That fragile woman
That sweetheart, that mistress, that wife
O yes it takes a woman
Vandergelder:
A husky woman
Vandergelder, Cornelius, & Barnaby
To bring you the sweet things in life!
All:
O Yes it takes a woman
A dainty woman
A sweetheart, a mistress, a wife

An Old-Fashioned Christmas (The Carpenters)
An Old-Fashioned Christmas
Composer(s): John Bettis; Richard Carpenter
Performer(s): The Carpenters
How I miss that Old Fashioned Christmas!
Carols being sung by the tree,
Window's candlelight shining bright
For the whole world to see
Children's eyes of sweet expectations
Wondering what each present will hold
Lying in their beds and impatient
On long Christmas Eves of old
It used to be that all the family
Would gather for this one night
It used to be that special feeling shared together
Knowing Christmas was here one night a year
How I miss that Old Fashioned Christmas!
Memories that last through the years
Call me sentimental; Don't mind if you do
I wish an Old Fashioned Christmas to you!

Composer(s): Bob Dylan
First release by: Bob Dylan - 1965
Covered by multiple other artists
Well I ride on a mailtrain baby, can't buy a thrill
Well I been up all night baby leanin' on the window sill
If I die on top of the hill
or if I don't make it, you know my baby will
Don't the moon look good shining through the trees
Don't the breakmen look good ma, flaggin' down the 'Double-E'
Don't the sun look good goin' down over the sea
but don't my gal look fine when she's coming after me
Well the wintertime is coming, the windows are filled with frost
I tried to tell everybody but I could not get across
Well I wanna be your lover babe, I don't wanna be your boss
Don't say I never warned you when your train gets lost
I've just been to the baggage car where the bags been tossed
I snap out forty compasses, sure don't know what they cost
I wanna be your lover babe, I don't wanna be your boss
Don't say I never warned you when your train gets lost
