Sibelius

Beautiful Dreamer, wake unto me,
Starlight and dewdrops are waiting for thee;
Sounds of the rude world heard in the day,
Lull'd by the moonlight have all passed away!
Beautiful dreamer, queen of my song,
List while I woo thee with soft melody;
Gone are the cares of life's busy throng
Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me!
Beautiful dreamer, awake unto me!

A candy-colored clown they call the sandman
Tiptoes to my room every night
Just to sprinkle stardust and to whisper
Go to sleep, everything is alright
I close my eyes then I drift away
Into the magic night, I softly say
A silent prayer like dreamers do
Then I fall asleep to dream my dreams of you
In dreams I walk with you
In dreams I talk to you
In dreams you're mine all of the time
We're together in dreams, in dreams
But just before the dawn
I awake and find you gone
I can't help it
I can't help it
If I cry
I remember that you said goodbye
It's too bad that all these things
Can only happen in my dreams
Only in dreams
In beautiful dreams

She looks in the mirror and stares at the wrinkles
That weren't there yesterday
And thinks of the young man that she almost married
What would he think if he saw her this way?
She picks up her apron in little girl-fashion
As something comes into her mind
Slowly starts dancing remembering her girlhood
And all of the boys she had waiting in line
Oh, such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
You see everywhere any time of the day
An everyday housewife who gave up the good life for me
The photograph album she takes from the closet
And slowly turns the page
And carefully picks up the crumbling flower
The first one he gave her now withered with age
She closes her eyes and
Touches the house dress that suddenly disappears
And just for the moment she's wearing the gown
That broke all their minds back so many years
Oh, such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
You see everywhere any time of the day
An everyday housewife who gave up the good life for me
Oh, such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
You see everywhere any time of the day
An everyday housewife who gave up the good life for me
Oh, such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
You see everywhere any time of the day

Darling, I am growing old,
Silver threads among the gold
Shine upon my brow today;
Life is fading fast away,
But, my darling, you will be, will be,
Always young and fair to me.
Yes! my darling, you will be
Always young and fair to me.

My own love said to me
"My mother won't mind.
And my daughters won't slight you
For your lack of kind".
He went away from me
And this he did say
"It will not be long, Love,
Till our wedding day"
He went away from me
And he moved through the fair
And slowly I watched him
Move here and move there
He went his way homeward
With one star awake
As this swan in the evening
Moves over the lake
I dreamed last night
That my own love came in
He came in so sweetly
His feet made no din
He came close beside me
And this he did say
"It will not be long Love
Till our wedding day"
It will not be long love
Long love
Long love
Love

Hey little sister, what have you done?
Hey little sister, who's the only one?
Hey little sister, who's your Superman?
Hey little sister, who's the one you want?
Hey little sister, shotgun
It's a nice day to start again
It's a nice day for a white wedding
It's a nice day to start again

You by my side that's how I see us
I close my eyes and I can see us
We're on our way to say I do
My secret dreams have all come true
I see the church I see the people
Your folks and mine happy and smiling
And I can hear sweet voices singing
Ave Maria....

The most beautiful sound I ever heard:
Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria . . .
All the beautiful sounds of the world in a single word . .
Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria . . .
Maria!
I've just met a girl named Maria,
And suddenly that name
Will never be the same
To me.
Maria!

How do you solve a problem like Maria
How do you catch a cloud and pin it down
How do you find a word that means Maria
A flibbertigibbet, a will o' the wisp, a clown?

Oh many a thing you know
You want to tell her
Many a thing she ought to understand
But how do you make her stay
And listen to what you say
Oh how do you solve a problem like Maria
How do hold a moonbeam in your hand?

Wild thing
You make my heart sing
You make everything groovy
Wild thing

Wild thing, I think I love you
But I wanna know for sure
So come on and hold me tight
I love you

Like a true nature's child
We were born
Born to be wild
We can climb so high
I never wanna die
Born to be wild
Born to be wild

People ask me why
I never find a place to stop
And settle down, down, down
But I never wanted all those things
People need to justify
Their lives, lives, lives
You see, you were born
Born, born to be alive
(Born to be alive)
You see, you were born
Born, born (born to be alive)

I got no bags and bags to slow me down
Well, I'm traveling so fast my feet ain't touching the ground
Traveling light
Traveling light
Well, I just can't wait to be with my baby tonight
No comb and no tooth brush
I got nothing to haul
I'm carrying only
A pocketful of dreams a heart full of love
And they weigh nothing at all
Soon, I'm gonna see that love look in her eyes
I'm a hoot and a holler away from paradise
Traveling light
Traveling light
Well, I just can't wait to be with my baby tonight
No comb and no tooth brush
I got nothing to haul
I'm carrying only
A pocketful of dreams a heart full of love
And they weigh nothing at all
Soon, I'm gonna see that love look in her eyes
I'm a hoot and a holler away from paradise
Traveling light
Well, I just can't wait to be with my baby tonight

Travelin' Light, is the only way to fly
Travelin' Light, just you and I
Way on down to ecstasy
Way on down and our own way
Traveling' Light, is the only way to fly

Travelin' Light, and you can catch the wind
Travelin' Light, better let your mind pretend
Get on down to paradise
Maybe once, now maybe twice
Travelin' Light, is the only way to fly
Get on down to paradise
Maybe once, now maybe twice
Travelin' Light, it's the only way to fly

Fly me to the moon
Let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like
On a-Jupiter and Mars
In other words, hold my hand
In other words, baby, kiss me
Fill my heart with song
And let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you
Fill my heart with song
Let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, in other words
I love... you

Take my hand
I'm a stranger in paradise
All lost in a wonderland
A stranger in paradise
If I stand starry eyed
That's a danger in paradise
Mortals who stand beside
An angels like us
I saw her face
And I ascended
Out of the common place
Into the rarest
Somewhere in space
I hang suspended
Until I know
There's a chance that she cares
Won't you answer this fervent prayer?
Of a stranger in paradise
Don't send me in dark despair
From all that I hunger for
But open your angel's arms
To this strangers in paradise
And tell us that we need be
Strangers no more
I saw her face
And I ascended
Out of the common place
Into the rarest
Somewhere in space
I hang suspended
Until I know
There's a chance that she cares
Won't you answer this fervent prayer?
Of a stranger in paradise
Don't send me in dark despair
From all that I hunger for
But open your angel's arms
To this strangers in paradise
And tell us that we need be
Strangers no more

Strangers in the night
Exchanging glances
Wond'ring in the night
What were the chances
We'd be sharing love
Before the night was through?
Something in your eyes was so inviting
Something in your smile was so exciting
Something in my heart told me
I must have you
Strangers in the night
Two lonely people
We were strangers in the night
Up to the moment
When we said our first hello
Little did we know
Love was just a glance away
A warm embracing dance away
And ever since that night
We've been together
Lovers at first sight
In love forever
It turned out so right
For strangers in the night
Love was just a glance away
A warm embracing dance away
Ever since that night
We've been together
Lovers at first sight
In love forever
It turned out so right
For strangers in the night

Some enchanted evening, you may see a stranger,
You may see a stranger across a crowded room,
And somehow you know, you know even then,
That somehow you'll see here again and again.
Some enchanted evening, someone may be laughing,
You may hear her laughing 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,
When you hear her call you across a crowded room,
Then fly to her side and make her your own,
Or all through your life you may dream all alone.

Laugh it off girl, don't get upset
Try to see things in perspective
There's a lot worse off than us
And anyway the consequences aren't that bad
Don't be sad.

Summer days are coming soon
You and me to make it happen
See the redstart down the orchard
Singing to his love to be, and you and me
You and me.

Laugh it off girl, don't get upset
Put it down to circumstances
There's a lot worse off than us
And anyway the consequences aren't that bad
Don't be sad.

Oh I, I believe in magic and I believe in dreams
Until I heard the thunder rumble
I saw the mountains crumble -
Then came the circus so I followed it's parade
With all the fancy lion tamers, high-wire fiery flamers
Ravers of every kind
I saw those high-stepping sexy witches
Sons of Satan, sons of bitches - all were there in my dreams
all in my dreams

Would like to see-ee
Would you like to see-ee
Would you like to see our show
Would you like to see-ee
Would you like to see-ee
Would you like to see our show
Would you like to meet the lion tamer or the man
Who kicks up the sawdust in the nicest way?
Would you like to see the fire-eater take the stand?
The flames don't affect him in the slightest way
If you're feeling curiously interested in
Something new, then come on through, the show will soon begin
But if you come when the lights are down and ev'ryone is out of town
We'll put on a show, yes the best that you've seen yet
Yes if you come when it's late at night and ev'rybody's out of sight
We'll give you a performance you never will forget.
Would you like to see-ee

Would you like to see our show
Would you like to see-ee
Would you like to see-ee
Would you like to see our show
Take your time and make your mind up ev'rybody's here
Clowns and dwarfs and elephants, and lots of circus cheer.
Would you like to meet the lady with the crystal ball?
She looks in the future and she sees it all
Would you like to have a drink or two with big fat Joan?
She knows what it's all about at twenty stone
If you're feeling curiously interested in
Something new, then come on through, the show will soon begin
But if you come when the lights are down and ev'ryone is out of town
We'll put on a show yes the best you've seen yet
Yes if you come when it's late at night and ev'rybody's out of sight
We'll give you a performance you never will forget.
Would you like to see-ee
Would you like to see-ee

Would you like to see our show
Take your time and make your mind up ev'rybody's here
Clowns and dwarfs and elephants, and lots of circus cheer.

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

If I were a rich man
Ya ba dibba dibba dibba dibba dibba dibba dum
All day long, I'd biddy biddy bum
If I were a wealthy man
I wouldn't have to work hard
Ya ba dibba dibba dibba dibba dibba dibba dum
Lord, who made the lion and the lamb
You decreed I should be what I am
Would it spoil some vast eternal plan
If I were a wealthy man?
