Close to You

Backing Track style of the "The Carpenters"

Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.

Why do stars fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.

On the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold
And starlight in your eyes of blue.

That is why all the girls in town
Follow you all around.
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.

On the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold
And starlight in your eyes of blue.

That is why all the girls in town
Follow you all around.
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
Just like me (Just like me)
They long to be
Close to you.

Wahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.
Wahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.
Hahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.
Lahhhhhhhhhhh, close to you.

Snowbird

Backing Track in the style of Anne Murray
Written by Gene MacLellan


Beneath this snowy mantle cold and clean
The unborn grass lies waiting for its coat to turn to green
The snowbird sings the song he always sings
And speaks to me of flowers that will bloom again in spring

When I was young my heart was young then, too
Anything that it would tell me, that's the thing that I would do
But now I feel such emptiness within
For the thing that I want most in life's the thing that I can't win

CHORUS
Spread your tiny wings and fly away
And take the snow back with you
Where it came from on that day
The one I love forever is untrue
And if I could you know that I would
Fly away with you

The breeze along the river seems to say
That he'll only break my heart again should I decide to stay
So, little snowbird, take me with you when you go
To that land of gentle breezes where the peaceful waters flow

CHORUS

Yeah, if I could I know that I would fl-y-y-y-y away with you

The Little Horses

Backing Track style of Charlotte Church

Hush bye-bye, don't you cry
go to sleepy little baby
when you wake you shall
have all the pretty little

coach and six little horses
Hush bye-bye dont you cry

a coach and six little horses
a black and bay

and a coach and six little horses

hush-a-bye, don't you cry
all you pretty little babies
go to sleepy little baby
all you pretty little babies

Class Act

Backing Track by Total Sound
From the Musical "The Tap Dance Kid"

nervous,nervous, every night
do I know my routine?
will I ever get it right?
scared to death, deep breath,
nervous,nervous, every night

Then Jenny makes her entrance
with a flare she, counts the house
to see who's there
Then comes Dipsy but have no fear
'Cause that'll be daddy bringing up the rear

Moving to the music. nice and slow
sorta, easy come kinda easy go
with a one, two, three for the show
we got a nack for holding back
because we know

We got a Class Act
It's a well known fact
you can tell by the swells
try and sell me a track
Dipsy and me, and Daddy makes three
We've got a top notch high tone
first class act

INST

We got a Class Act
It's a well known fact
We've got a top notch top floor
top of the bill
Ain't nothing low down low class
run of the mill
We got a top notch high tone
We got a Class Act

Life is Just a Bowl of Cherries

Backing Track by Total Sound
Broadway Musical Fosse
and featured in "Pennies from Heaven"


People are queer, they're always crowing, scrambling and rushing about;
Why don't they stop someday, address themselves this way?
Why are we here? Where are we going? It's time that we found out.
We're not here to stay; we're on a short holiday.

Life is just a bowl of cherries.
Don't take it serious; life's so mysterious.
You work, you save, you worry so,
But you can't take your dough when you go, go, go.
So keep repeating it's the berries,
The strongest oak must fall,
The sweet things in life, to you were just loaned
So how can you lose what you've never owned?
Life is just a bowl of cherries,
So live and laugh at it all.

Life is just a bowl of cherries.
Don't take it serious; it's too mysterious.
At eight each morning I have got a date,
To take my plunge 'round the Empire State.
You'll admit it's not the berries,
In a building that's so tall;
There's a guy in the show, the girls love to kiss;
Get thousands a week just for crooning like this:
Life is just a bowl of . . . aw, nuts!
So live and laugh at it all!
