A Boy Like That/I Have A Love
A Boy Like That/I Have A Love
Composer(s): Leonard Bernstein - Stephen Sondheim
Performer(s): Betty Wand
and multiple other artists
Maria's Bedroom - 11:30 p.m.
(Anita knocks at Maria's locked door
After agreeing with Maria to meet at the drugstore, Tony scrambles out the window
Maria opens the door for Anita, who looks at the bed and turns to her accusingly)
Anita (bitterly):
A boy like that who'd kill your brother
Forget that boy and find another
One of your own kind!
Stick to your own kind!
A boy like that will give you sorrow
You'll meet another boy tomorrow
One of your own kind!
Stick to your own kind!
A boy who kills cannot love
A boy who kills has no heart
And he's the boy who gets your love
And gets your heart
Very smart, Maria, very smart!
A boy like that wants one thing only
And when he's done he'll leave you lonely
He'll murder your love; he murdered mine
Just wait and see
Just wait, Maria
Just wait and see!
Maria:
Oh, no, Anita, no!
Anita, no!
It isn't true, not for me
I hear your words
And in my head
I know they're smart
But my heart knows they're wrong
And my heart is too strong
For I belong to him alone, to him alone
One thing I know: I am his
I don't care what he is
I don't know why it's so
I don't want to know
Anita:
A boy like that who'd kill your brother
Forget that boy and find another
One of your own kind!
Stick to your own kind!
A boy like that will give you sorrow
You'll meet another boy tomorrow
One of your own kind!
Stick to your own kind!
A boy who kills cannot love
A boy who kills has no heart
And he's the boy who gets your love
And gets your heart
Very smart, Maria, very smart!
Maria:
Oh, no, Anita, no!
Anita, no!
You should know better!
You were in love - or so you said
You should know better...
I have a love, and it's all that I have
Right or wrong, what else can I do?
I love him; I'm his
And ev'rything he is
I am too
I have a love and it is all that I need
Right or wrong, and he needs me too
I love him, we're one
There's nothing to be done
Not a thing I can do
But hold him
Hold him forever
Be with him now tomorrow
And all of my life!
Both:
When love comes so strong
There is no right or wrong
Your love is your life!
(A policeman comes in to question Maria, who sends Anita to tell Tony)

Christmas In Heaven
Christmas In Heaven
Composer(s): Eric Idle - Terry Jones

Good Evening Ladies and Gentlemen
It's truly a real honourable experience to be here this evening
A wonderful and warm and emotional moment for all of us
And I'd like to sing a song for all of you...
It's Christmas in Heaven
All the children sing
It's Christmas in Heaven
Hark, hark, those church bells ring
It's Christmas in Heaven
The snow falls from the sky
But it's nice and warm, and everyone
Looks smart and wears a tie
It's Christmas in Heaven
There's great films on TV
'The Sound of Music' twice an hour
And 'Jaws' One, Two, and Three
Mary and Joseph:
There's gifts for all the family
There's toiletries and trains
Three Kings:
There's Sony Walkman Headphone sets
And the latest video games
Everyone:
It's Christmas!
It's Christmas in Heaven!
Hip hip hip hip hip hooray!
Every single day
Is Christmas day!
It's Christmas!
It's Christmas in Heaven!
Hip hip hip hip hip hooray!
Every single day
Is Christmas day!
It's Christmas!
It's Christmas in Heaven!
Hip hip hip hip hip hooray!
Every single day
Is Christmas day!

It's Breaking Me Up
It's Breaking Me Up
Composer(s): Ian Anderson
Performer(s): Jethro Tull; Blodwyn Pig
So many long days
In so many ways
I try to get through to what lies deep inside of you
Oh, baby. I said, you're breaking me up, woman
Yeah, you're breaking me down
You're lying in little pieces
scattered all around
You're doing your worst to see me get hurt
You're waiting to see the tears running out of me
But, oh, baby, I said you're breaking me up, woman
You're breaking me down
You're lying in little pieces
scattered all around
My teares have run dry and you wonder why
I've found a new woman who don't do the things you can
Oh, baby, I said you're breaking me up, woman
You're breaking me down
You're lying in little pieces
scattered all around

Christmas In Dixie
Composer(s): Jeff Cook - Teddy Gentry - Mark Herndon - Randy Owen
Performer(s): Alabama
and multiple other artists
By now in New York City, there's snow on the ground
And out in California, the sunshine's falling down
And, maybe down in Memphis, Graceland's all in lights
And in Atlanta, Georgia, there's peace on earth tonight
Christmas in Dixie, it's snowin' in the pines
Merry Christmas from Dixie, to everyone tonight
It's windy in Chicago
The kids are out of school
There's magic in Motown
The city's on the move
In Jackson, Mississippi, to Charlotte, Caroline
And all across the nation, it's the peaceful Christmas time
Christmas in Dixie, it's snowin' in the pines
Merry Christmas from Dixie, to everyone tonight
And from Fort Payne, Alabama
God bless y'all...
We love ya...
Happy New Year...
Good night
Merry Christmas...
Merry Christmas tonight

Performer(s): Hank Snow
and multiple other artists
It's Been So Long, Darlin'
Since I had to go away
It's Been So Long, Darlin'
And I'll ne'er forget that day
Although you never mentioned it
You cried that whole day long
It's Been So Long, Darlin'
But now I'm comin' home
It's Been So Long, Darlin'
Since I gazed into your eyes
It's Been So Long, Darlin'
Do you really realize
That the thought of seein' you
It scares me thru and thru
It's Been So Long, Darlin'
Since I had a kiss from you
It's Been So Long, Darlin'
But it won't be long now
It's Been So Long, Darlin'
But I've kept ev'ry vow
I pray that you'll be waiting
As you did in days gone by
It's Been So Long, Darlin'
Please don't blame me if I cry
It's Been So Long, Darlin'
Since I gazed into your eyes
It's Been So Long, Darlin'
Do you really realize
That the thought of seein' you
It scares me thru and thru
It's Been So Long, Darlin'
Since I had a kiss from you

Christmas Hymn
Christmas Hymn
Composer(s): Amy Grant - Michael W. Smith
Performer(s): Amy Grant
Praise to God whose love was shown
Who sent his Son to earth
Jesus left his rightful throne
Became a man by birth
The virgin's baby son
All creation praised Him
God incarnate come
Come to Bethlehem
Still a higher call had He
Deliverance from our sins
Come to set all people free
>From Satan's hold within
For by the sin of man we fell
By the Son of God
He crushed the power of Hell
Death we fear no more
Now we stand with strength, with power
The sons of God on earth
Faithful to the final hour
Christ's righteousness our worth
And now all praise is given
For the babe, the Son
The Savior King is risen
Christ is Lord indeed
For the babe, the Son
The Savior King is risen
Christ is Lord indeed

Performer(s): Bing Crosby
and multiple other artists
Kiss me once, then kiss me twice
Then kiss me once again
It's been a long, long time
Haven't felt like this, my dear

You'll never know how many dreams
I've dreamed about you
Or just how empty they all seemed without you
So kiss me once, then kiss me twice
Then kiss me once again
It's been a long, long time
Ah, kiss me once, then kiss me twice
Then kiss me once again
It's been a long time
Haven't felt like this my dear
Since I can't remember when
It's been a long, long time

Christmas For Cowboys
Christmas For Cowboys
Composer(s): Steve Weisberg
Performer(s): John Denver
and multiple other artists
Tall in the saddle we spend Christmas Day
Drivin' the cattle on the snow-covered plains
All of the good gifts given today
Ours is the sky and the wide open range
Back in the cities, they have diff'rent ways
Football and eggnog and Christmas parades
I'll take the blanket, I'll take the reins
Christmas for cowboys and the wide open plains
A campfire for warmth as we stop for the night
The stars overhead are the Christmas-tree lights
The wind sings a hymn as we bow down to pray
Christmas for cowboys and the wide open range
It's tall in the saddle we spend Christmas Day
Drivin' the cattle on the snow-covered plains
So many gifts have been opened today
Ours is the sky and the wide open range
It's Christmas for cowboys and wide open plains

It's Anybody's Spring
It’s Anybody’s Spring
Composer(s): Johnny Burke; James Van Heusen
Performer(s): Jack Lemmon
and multiple other artists
You think that money is everything
And yet it’s anybody’s Spring
Go make a fortune, become a king
And still it’s anybody’s Spring
And if you flash a bank roll
Do you suppose the brook would care?
Or that a rose would say
“There goes a millionaire!”
It’s more than diamonds around a ring
Because it’s anybody’s Spring
You may be born with the silver spoon
And yet it’s anybody’s moon
You couldn’t buy a ticket
To hear the first robin sing
It’s free because
It’s anybody’s Spring
You couldn’t buy a ticket
To hear the first robin sing
It’s free because
It’s anybody’s Spring

Christmas Eve In My Hometown
Christmas Eve In My Hometown
Composer(s): Don Upton - Stan Zabka
Performer(s): Kate Smith
and multiple other artists
There's so much to remember
No wonder I remember
Christmas Eve in my home town
'Cause there were carols in the square
Laughter everywhere,
Couples kissing under the mistletoe
I can't help reminiscing
Knowing I'll be missing
Christmas Eve in my home town
Nothing can erase the mem'ries I embrace
Those familiar footprints upon the snow
There's so much to remember
No wonder I remember
Christmas Eve in my home town
I'd like to be there
Trimming the tree there
And there's a chance that I might
I can hear singing
Steeple bells ringing
Noel and Silent Night
Wise men journeyed far, guided by a star
But though I'm not a wise man, this I know
Through dreams and just pretending
I'm there and I'll be spen-ding
Christmas Eve in my home town

It's An Old Southern Custom
It’s An Old Southern Custom
Performer(s): Carroll Gibbons
It’s an old Southern custom
When you’re walking down the street
To bid everyone ‘good morning’
Don’t you think that’s kind of sweet?
It’s an old Southern custom
To politely lift your hat
When you pass a pretty stranger
Is there anything wrong in that?
If a lady meets a gentleman
As they did in days colonial
And the lady and the gentleman
Have intentions matrimonial
If they must be together
Every morning, noon and night
There’s a good old Southern custom
That makes everything all right

Christmas Eve (Johnny Mathis)
Christmas Eve
Composer(s): Allyn Ferguson - Sidney Shaw
Performer(s): Johnny Mathis
Moonlight shining on the mistletoe
Carols singing in the snow
Soon will come the finest hour I know
It's Christmas eve
Candles lighting windows everywhere
Season's greetings fill the air
Santa travelling every thoroughfare
It's Christmas eve
There's a legend that some wise men say is true
Fall in love on Christmas eve and love lasts your whole life through
Winter evening of the holy birth
Night time full of joy and mirth
Goodwill to all and peace on earth
It's Christmas eve
Goodwill to all and peace on earth
It's Christmas eve

It's Always You
It's Always You
Composer(s): Jimmy Van Heusen; Johnny Burke
First recording/First release by: Bing Crosby - 1940/1941
Covered by multiple other artists
Whenever it's early twilight
I watch till a star breaks through
Funny it's not a star I see, it's always you
Whenever I roam through roses
And lately I often do
Funny it's not a rose I touch, it's always you
If a breeze caresses me, it's really you strolling by
If I hear a melody, it's merely the way you sigh
Wherever you are, you're near me
You dare me to be untrue
Funny, each time I fall in love, it's always you

Christmas Eve (Celine Dion)
Christmas Eve
Composer(s): Maria Christensen - Curt Frasca
Performer(s): Celine Dion; Keres Katia
Snow falling gently to the ground
'Tis the night before
And in my heart there is no doubt
That this is gonna be
The brightest holiday
'Cause here you are with me
Baby, baby, I can't wait
To spend this special time of year with someone who
Makes me feel the special way that you do
Walkin' with you in a winter's snow
Kissin' underneath the mistletoe
People smiling everywhere we go
It's Christmas Eve and they can see we're in love
Ooh, you make the season bright
With the lights reflected in your eyes
All my dreams are comin' true tonight
It's Christmas Eve and I can see we're in love
We'll stay up late tonight
Decorate the tree
Just look into my eyes
And I will tell you truthfully
That I don't need no Santa Claus
To hear my Christmas wish
I got you in my arms
And what could be a better gift

It's Always 4 A.M.
It's Always 4 A.M.
Composer(s): Sammy Cahn; Ron Anthony
Performer(s): Shirley Bassey
and multiple other artists
The world is cold, the night is still
The dream is old, and so's a thrill
Some cool DJ, begins to play, a Wes Montgomerys score
When you're all alone
It's always four a.m.
It had to last, it would go on
But once it's passed, it's passed and gone
You just pretend, it didn't end
But make believe the blower
When you're all alone
It's always four a.m.
Your thoughts take wings, but nothing brings
That needed bit of slumber
The phone then rings, your pour heart sings
You left the phone, wrong number
The sun is bright, the sky's a blaze
But still it's night, there are no days
And worst of all, right down the hall
There's laughter through the door
When you're all alone
It's always four a.m.
Your thoughts take wings, but nothing brings
That needed bit of slumber
The phone then rings, your pour heart sings
You left the phone, wrong number
The sun is bright, the sky's a blaze
But still it's night, there are no days
And worst of all, right down the hall
There's laughter through the door
When you're all alone
It's always four a.m.
When you're all alone
It's always four a.m.

I'm doing my Christmas dreaming
A little early this year
No sign of snow around
And yet I go around hearing

Your promise must be the reason
The happy season is here
So I'm doing my Christmas dreaming
A little early this year

Christmas Dream
Christmas Dream
Composer(s): Andrew Lloyd Weber - Tim Rice - André Heller
Performer(s): Perry Como & The London Boy Singers; Simon Fisk; Maynard Williams
Watch me now, here I go!
All I need's a little snow
Starts me off, sets the theme, helps me dream my Christmas dream
Ev'ry year I dream it, hoping things will change
An end to the crying, the shouting, the dying
And I hope you will dream it too
It's Christmas, remember?
We've got to remember
So light the light
I'm home tonight.
I need you to warm me, to calm me, to love me
To help me to dream my Christmas dream
Crazy things said and done, ev'ry single day but one
Ev'ry night should, I believe, be the same as Christmas Eve
Nights should all be silent, days should all slow down
An end to the hurry, the noise and the worry
And I hope you believe that too
It's Christmas, remember?
Does no one remember?
The whole world needs a Christmas dream
We need it to warm us, to calm us, to love us
To help us to dream our Christmas dream
(Lüge dirigiert die Welt, Ehrlichkeit bringt selten Geld
Jeder möcht' Sieger sein, wer verliert bleibt ganz allein
Doch manch Will' ist möglich durch die Fantasie
Du stirbst um zu leben und nimmst um zu geben)
Einmal im Jahr wird alles wahr
Zu Weihnacht vergiss nicht
Vergiss es gewiss nicht
The whole world needs a Christmas dream
We need it to warm us, to calm us, to love us
We need it to warm us, to calm us, to love us
We need it to warm us, to calm us, to love us
To help us to dream our Christmas dream
